"Why do I care what is going on in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia? I'm serious. Why shouldn't I root for Russia? Which by the way I am."
-- Tucker Carlson

"This is genius. Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine -- of Ukraine. Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that's wonderful."
-- Donald J. Trump

"I'd say that's pretty smart. He's [Putin] taking over a country -- really a vast, vast location, a great piece of land with a lot of people, and just walking right in."
-- Donald. J. Trump

Russia learned from the Nazi invasion of their own country. They took that brutal lesson to heart, target the innocents, burn the hospitals, slaughter civilians, destroy the infrastructure.

Trump, Carlson, et al look upon that horror and they see ... strength.
You have only to look to Fox News and OAN right now to see those who speak for Republican ideology threatening similar revenge on Americans for imagined slights. See the comment of Ron DeSantis, Florida Republicans, Laura Ingraham, et al.
That's how it starts.

That rhetoric. Revenge. Getting even. Using the power of government and the military to crush your opponents. That's where it starts.

And it ends with the bodies of innocents shot in the head and dumped in a ditch.

You remember when Trump as President threatened to send the Army into Chicago?

And Republicans cheered that idea?

When he paraded tanks through our capitol?

And Republican cheered?

Do you?

It's all part of the same mindset, one that ends in genocide. Every time.

We must not only stop what's happening in Ukraine, we must stop it before it happens HERE.

Case in point, right here.

This is how you justify genocide. This is how you justify the same sort of slaughter that's happening in Ukraine right now.

This is how you see Vladimir Putin as strength. Right here. This right here.

Rep. Lisa McClain (MI) says that migrants crossing the border are all “terrorists, convicts, murderers and rapists.”

Propaganda Pete selects together a montage of past quotes from different contexts, some with different intents when taken out of context, some being sarcastic rather than serious, all of which were said before present conditions and all pasted together to create a picture of Republicans being bloodthirsty NAZI Stalinistic insurgent insurrectionists who are about to commit genocide on the American people if they are not stopped.

As Pete has warned--be very afraid!
