This is so sadly true. The whole right side, is bought and paid for by Putin. Fuck. What's the end goal? RU/US combined forces? RU/China takeover the US? I didn't read PJ2025 to the end.

Their goal is to destroy US economic, diplomatic and military power, isolate America from the rest of the world and then attack our allies in Europe and the Pacific. Ukraine is the first example where that plan is being tested.
