I have one objection to Caitlyn's supposition that "Looking to the mainstream media for truth is like looking to a prostitute for love". I offer that it's much more likely, though still low odds, of finding a prostitute honestly looking for love. Otherwise, as usual, spot on...

Paying for sex has to be one of the most forthright transactions to occur between two people; comparing it to the gross misrepresentation that is corporate media is downright obscene.

Did you know that Canada has ammassed 90% of their population within 100 miles of the US border? I'm not sure what they are waiting for, but an invasion is almost certainly immenent! I suspect they are waiting for our eyes to be so focused on Russia that we won't see them coming. Best to strike first to prevent this certain invasion!

Yeah, saw it years ago. It had it's moments. I borrowed the "ammassed" line from that.

A couple of weeks ago it was "Putin is waiting for the ground to freeze so the tanks won't get stuck in the mud." Now they have decided that Russian tanks are amphibious.

We just went through all this same crap last spring: https://www.google.com/search?q=russian+buildup+ukraine&client=ubuntu&hs=0Bd&channel=fs&biw=1501&bih=823&source=lnt&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A3%2F1%2F2021%2Ccd_max%3A4%2F30%2F2021&tbm=nws

Thank you sooo very much !!

It is completely wrong and cowardly from establishment press to minimize Russia-gate hoax that St. Obama-Hillary-Biden-Jake Sullivan inflicted on us and that is still going on.

Jake Sullivan had a key role in launching Russia-gate hoax. Same people that launched the Russia-gate hoax are now hyperventilating about Russia invasion of Ukraine is "imminent".

All to "save democracy" in Ukraine -- in order to distract from the fact that St. Obama organized in 2014 coup against democratically elected Ukraine government. In reality, they need a distraction; they knew that Durham is coming with another filing -- exposing the lying team (St. Obama, Hillary, Biden, Jake Sullivan) that concocted their Russia-gate hoax crime of the century.

St. Obama installed Biden and his CIA pal Brennan as de facto governors of Ukraine -- immensely enriching US "elite" and posting and removing government members, judges and heads of industry with billions of corrupting cash -- in "fight against corruption".

US key exports today are – coups, wars and all-encompassing corruption.

Watergate (a break-in to install microphone in DNC office) pales in comparison....

The US has a history of predicting and then making their predictions come true. It's uncanny - or canny, or something. Keeps you on your toes. Like dealing with the seriously and malignantly deluded.

The US is hastening Ukraine's economic collapse with its psy-wash. Perhaps so that it can be "bailed out" by the likes of Erik Prince: https://time.com/6076035/erik-prince-ukraine-private-army/

Also, i just found out: Burisma has a CIA board member, Cofer Black. And, Burisma's true owner funds a private militia: Azov army (neo-nazi) and another private Dniper Militia. And "Aw Shucks Sleepy Joe Biden" is neck deep. It's likely this prez election was rigged. It had to be Biden. What a dirty dirty gov. and press.

What I cannot believe is how anyone can take seriously the Press' continuously repeated supposition that the West is trying to prevent Russia from invading the Ukraine (it's pretty clear that the US military/industrial is jones-ing for this war, and that is precisely why we left Afghanistan so abruptly - new day, new war) and dismissing Putin's claim that he is not planning to invade as "disinformation." These lies are so blatant that a blind man on a galloping horse could see through them.

It's like a movie. Super Sniffy Saves Ukraine! What a farce. Totally scripted. Nice pivot away from all of the Sniffy admin failures --- hey let's make up something that we can say Sniffy was great at. A lot of people will eat it right up, especially the party trained but a lot of people see right through the charade.

Meanwhile we careen towards another Presidential election: Dumb vs. Dumber.

I'm crossing my fingers here for the Pentagon not to reeschedule the Russian invasion when Carnival starts in Rio.

A shortened version of this article should appear as an editorial in the same media that pumps out this bile so those consuming it might pry open their brains a little, but alas, that's not the system we have. Russia may arrest those with inconvenient views -- Julian Assange style -- while we here in the shining towers of democracy are subjected to CIA handouts provided by mega corporations and labeled as right wingers, racists, misogynists, and Jew-haters if we stray from the party line.

Thomas Friedman is what happens when you have a system in place that rewards all the wrong things in society. Our presidential elections are another.

If there really is cyber attacks happening against Ukraine, how much do you want to bet it's CrowdStrike doing the dirty work?

Isn't "strangle [the other guy's] economy and sap the resolve of its people" OUR strategy?

Sounds like projection to me
