after Zelensky refused to cooperate in Trump's shakedown attempt to make up some dirt on Hunter Biden.

After the way Trump's family scammed and robbed everyone in sight, it was like the pot calling the kettle black anyway. There's never been a bigger crime family in the White House, and I'll wager there never will.

The Fox/radical right agents in the room work out their provocative “questions” in advance. Thinking they will catch Psaki off guard. They work out their “questions,” incorporating Republican/Russian lies into their “questions,” so that ANY answer indirectly confirms their lies.

Instead, Psaki anticipates ALL their lies every time, stops them in their tracks, sets them straight on the facts, and leaves them empty-handed when she asks “anything else?”

When Fox Noise asks what Joe Biden has to say about the sky being green, any direct response lets them broadcast that Biden thinks the sky is green. Psaki NEVER falls for it. She comes right out and says that Biden hasn’t seen the sky green, nor has she, and nor have they. The Foxsuckers then start in with their “many people,” Psaki asks, “Who, specifically?,” they don’t know, and then, it’s on to the next attempt.

Since the radical right, Doocey and the rest, get their instructions from their bosses in New York, they never have the imagination to ask something that might evoke an interesting answer. Every single session inevitably has the Fox et al idiots practically begging Psaki to slip up, with her giving them a firm “NO!” every single time. One might THINK the chief propagandists of the American radical right were capable of more creative thinking, but so far, there has not been much concrete evidence of that.

In answering to a question about Ted Cruz, she said that she didn't work for him "mercifully" so she couldn't reply. So she and I share a deeply felt disgust with that POS.

These weapons are defensive, but these are offensive, so are we aiding Ukrainian aggression?

Are they just trying to gin up a week of esoteric grievances?

As you know, Putin has been their STRONG WHITE MAN alternative going back to Obama. Trump clearly is uh receptive to Putin. Given their history and not wanting to upset the toddler they find themselves trying to mostly not appear to flip and their “everyone else is lying to you” cult thing.

I was watching a British cop show where a criminal mastermind was under their noses the whole time as a corrupt police officer. Everyone thought he was bumbling idiot who makes a lot of mistakes and never suspected him. Republicans remind me of that.

It doesn't matter that MIGS and drones can also be used as defensive weapons by Ukraine as well and Psaki let it be known these will be used to defend and, hopefully, drive out the Russian invaders.

Hopefully.

If they can interrupt a Russian broadcast, they can do it on US soil too.

Assuming that was Anonymous, of course.

AND Ukraine is ACTUALLY a separate nation, not just it's own country by delusional aspiration. Has been for 30 years.

AND if Canada bombed a hospital in Texas full of pregnant women and babies, Texas would march up to Canada and destroy every province down to the bedrock.

These people want to start wars over imaginary wrongs. If someone actually DID something illegal and immoral to them, they would boil over and go nuclear.
