RadPod Breakers — Ukrainian Defenders
RadPod Breakers — Ukrainian Defenders
While Putinists continue their lying sprees, Ukrainian defenders remain all that separates us from barbarism

10 years after Russian barbarians invaded, Ukrainians remain the only defenders of Western civilization.
Other democratic nations still can't decide if a way of life where fellow human beings are treated with decency and respect is worth fighting for.
—Dr. Michael MacKay
Oh America. Get your shit together.
Recognize the barbarians at the gate — recognize that the battle is for the mind — recognize the sacrifice Ukrainians make each day as they defend Western civilization from the greed of a fascist dictatorship.
Recognize fascism that appears wrapped in the flag and selling bibles.
I do believe many Americans are waking up to the war that has bled onto our shores.
That is why a pro-choice woman can flip a seat in Alabama.
That is why a high school punk band in Arkansas is writing songs based on words I spoke on The Thom Hartman Program (and ftr, it’s a banger).
That is why Ronna McDaniel has been returned to the figurative trash heap of liars and propagandists, and that is also why Parasite Bannon and Traitor Flynn increase their terrorist threats. These are desperate men, convicted criminals, who will feel more secure with a fellow criminal at the helm.
So with that, RadPod is dedicated with keeping the focus on Russia’s war of aggression in Ukraine, and not the ‘look over here’ horror events, both real and staged.
The entire country of Ukraine was bombed over the weekend, while Putin was lying on Garbage TV about who was to blame for Moscow’s terror, while also making sure the world saw what a true barbarian mafia state does to send a message.
Those of us who have been following the war crimes committed in Ukraine are not surprised, and those who were surprised have simply not been paying attention.
At recent Bette events, we learned so much from both Stephen Douglas of Disinfolklore and Decoding Trolls and Monique Camarra of Eurofile and Kremlin File. I will have print reports from both events shortly.
In the meantime, I ask that you watch both of RadPod’s recent breakers.
Here is our latest interview with geopolitical analyst Dr. Michael MacKay, who notes that America has been historically bad at dealing with treason, and we better get good at it soon:
And please see our live update from Ukraine with war correspondents Zarina Zabrisky and Paul Conroy:
As she reports live from a hot war zone, Zabrisky reminds us that the battle is also for the mind, and we must never forget about how pernicious information warfare is — and that denying us from clearly seeing a collective truth is also a crime.
There is much we can do to be helpful in this time, as you will learn from our guests, and I look forward to bringing you more information from the front — both the physical front and the war for our minds.
I am glad you are here.

FYI — I need to hire a Ukrainian translator for upcoming RadPod and Bette events. Donations are much appreciated.
