Tucker looks at how well the US-funded George Washington and Winston Churchill of our time is living up to his titles, by shutting down political opposition and banning religious practices in the name of democracy. Highlights include:
“Whatever you think of the war in Ukraine, it is pretty clear that Zelensky has no interest in freedom and democracy. In fact, Zelensky is far closer to Lenin than to George Washington. He is a dictator. He is a dangerous authoritarian who has used $100 billion in US tax dollars to erect a one party police state in Ukraine, and that’s not an overstatement.”
“Over the past year, Zelensky has banned opposition parties. He’s shut down critical media by force. He’s arrested his political opponents. He has sent soldiers into churches and arrested dozens of priests for no justifiable reason whatsoever, and in clear violation of the Ukrainian constitution, which no longer matters. And in the face of this, the Biden administration has said nothing, not one word.”
“Last week, he announced his week to ban an entire religion, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, and to seize its property, all for being insufficiently loyal to his regime.”
“A free country does not ban a major religion just because it’s not fully onboard with the political program of the people running the country, but Zelensky is doing that, and his cabinet is now devising ways to punish Christians for practicing their banned ancient religion in Ukraine. ‘Personal, economic and restrictive sanctions will be applied to any Christian caught worshiping in unapproved ways.'”
“In May, George W. Bush, the ‘great defender of Christendom,’ met with Zelensky on a zoom call and afterward described him as the Winston Churchill of our time, a man who should be praised for his ‘commitment to liberty.’ So, where’s George W. Bush on this question, now that his friend the ‘George Washington of Ukraine’ has banned a form of Christianity in that country? Well, George W. Bush has been silent as well, so have many purportedly Christian members of Congress. They’re backing Zelensky no matter how many Christians he arrests, no matter how many churches he seizes.”
“So, if they’ll defend a man who shut down opposition media, arrested his political opponents, arrested priests, sent the army into monasteries and then banned a religion, if they’ll defend all of that and call it liberty, they’ll defend anything.”
