We’re not a serious country.

The same guy who oversaw America’s humiliating collapse in Afghanistan was sent in to reassure Ukraine after Russia opened a new front.
U.S Secretary of State Antony Blinken made a surprise trip to Kyiv on Tuesday, meeting with President Volodymyr Zelensky as Russian forces make significant gains on the battlefield in Ukraine.
Blinken’s visit was the first by a Biden administration official since the long-delayed passage of US supplemental funding to the war-torn country.
“I have come to Ukraine with a message: You are not alone,” he said during a speech at the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute.
James Taylor apparently wasn’t available.
‘Rockin’ in the Free World’ is already a dumb choice. It’s not a validation of America, but an attack on it. America is depicted as a giant homeless encampment of junkies suffering under capitalism and the first Bush administration. It’s basically Marxist propaganda despite people treating it as some sort of patriotic hymn because they never bothered to listen to the lyrics.
But whatever the song was, it’s unserious behavior in the middle of a war, especially a war in which people are dying, and a war that may be on the verge of being lost.
But we’re not a serious country and the only thing this administration is serious about is suppressing domestic dissent.
Algorithmic Analyst says
They gave Ukraine some very bad advice before the “big offensive” awhile back.
Domenic Pepe says
Psychopaths and fools like blinkin Blinken are never aware or conscious that they are psychopathic fools.
David Gin says
Wondering is Mr. Blinken asking for the Ukrainian report showing that Ukraine has used American Military aid is consistent with its obligations under international humanitarian law or with best practices for mitigating civilian harm, or is that only expected from Israel?
Scott Stuart says
This reminds me of John Kerry being photographed riding a pink girls-bike while he was negotiating with Iran.
These people have their heads in the clouds….
Pepperspapa says
A country boy actually would pinpoint the location of their heads slightly farther south.
Jeff Bargholz says
Yeah, Blinken really raped that perfectly good guitar. I’d like to see him in a cage match with Ted Nugent.
And “Rockin’ in the Free World?” That song was shitty when Neil Young did it and it hasn’t gotten better with time.
Even more embarrassing than Billdo playing a saxophone and Obangi rapping.
roberta says
Please tell me we are living in a simulation.
Putin is shaking in his boots………..The same Putin that we were told was on his death bed 3 years ago.
Ive got an idea for Pres. Biden, reinstate the draft in the United States, then hand the drafties
Ukrainian uniforms.
Zelensky has the Epstein Island videos.
Steven Kardas says
No, you are not living in a simulation but a terrifying reality. . The unseriousness of our current government officials is a disgrace. Miss Mike Pompeo and Richard Grenell yet ? Oh, and how do spell Zelensky ?
E-X-T-O-R-T-I-O-N.
Domenic Pepe says
Since filthy depraved scatological comedian sadist ZZZZelenskiiii plays the piano with his schlunk,
Blinken should also be playing the guitar with his schlunk.
Unfortunately, blinkin Blinken is the Biden administration’s favorite Eunuch.
Jeff Bargholz says
Biden’s imitation of a schlunk is a putz. A little bitty one, as Buddy Hackett said. A schmuck is a big one that can fill a truck. A schlunk is much bigger than Biden can get up, not that he can get it up.
Trump bangs Melania. Now, that’s a man.
roberta says
Eunuch. Well put.
RobTheGray1 says
Funny — that’s how I spell Biden…
Jeff Bargholz says
I spell “Biden” as “ugly old pedophile.”
Gordon says
Rules Based International Order: A handful of western elites(government, NGOs, corporations) make the rules, the rules change on any given day to suit their needs, and the rules always give them more wealth and power and make everyone else poorer and weaker. Any who don’t go along will be destroyed.
I am pro individual liberty and decentralization of power, so I am not pro Russia, but in this case they provide an effective counterweight to the horrifying plans of the NWO(call it what you like), which is the greater threat to my life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
Dan Tyson says
Did blinky think he be like a Bob Hope to be over there to entertain the troops? He has no stage charisma, can’t sing OR play guitar & Vol doesn’t care either as long as he brought along the much- needed $$$
Thomas Fowler says
Since the war is basically lost, I guess he thought some cheering up might be in order to cover up another US foreign policy fiasco. Maybe he should have composed and sung “Let’s negotiate a settlement now”, with appropriate lyrics.
Jeff Bargholz says
That was pretty funny! I actually like his comment but funny is funny.
JL says
Russia was always going to win this war. It was just a matter of how long it would take, how many people would die, and how much money the US would waste keeping it going.
RS says
The US is wasting money and American tax dollars. Its the oligarch’s war, not the war of the people.
Jeff Bargholz says
What is Russia gong to win? The Crimea? It already had that. Donbar or Dumbass or whatever the region is called? What is Vlad Puto going to do with it? Spend the rest of his life fighting dissidents and wasting Russian lives?
Like Trump has said, this stupid shit wouldn’t have happened if he hadn’t been cheated out of the election. When the cat’s away, the rats will play.
ElkaZ says
Glad to see his musical skills are on parity with his political skills! They are equally deplorable! Yet, somehow he holds the same disillusionment that both are worth something.
Rick Champagne says
true. and no one in his circle is willing to tell him he sucks.
MuggsSpongedice says
Blinken fiddle with a guitar while Ukraine and USA and Israel burns! Obvious money laundering using Ukraine as well as war profiteering! These jackoffs in the Briben fake administration do the bidding off their satanic deep state masters and handlers and puppeteers.
SPURWING PLOVER says
Blinkin is just another example or some little pencil neck pipsqueak who thinks their the King of the Hill when in realty their the Knave or the Gully
Pepperspapa says
Blinken and his family are puppets of Soros. President Dumbo’s handler.
Cal from Canada says
At least Tony’s a better guitar player than he is a diplomat.
Rick Champagne says
hardly. at least he got a semi-decent player to play with his l a m e a r s e.
RS says
The Ukraine is where China is fighting a. proxie war against the U.S, only extending the war farther. Such big interest in Ukaine, but not helping Israel. Our days are numbered on this planet by the policies of the woke, and the abandonment of laws, honor, and obligations to support sovereign allies.
TRex says
It’s not a loss if you can get leaders of foreign nations to play your game and take your money. What happens outside the castle walls is of little interest to those profiting from the wars.
Robert L. Kahlcke says
Now Blinken’s on the take.
garry pollack says
Crosby, Stills & Blinken!
Rick Champagne says
that guy is such a self-absorbed doofus it’s hard to believe. you’d think with his salary he could spring for a few basic geetar lessons.
Rick Champagne says
what an i d i o t a.
Hugh Jassol says
Worse than James Taylor in Paris with John Kerry after the Bataclan Theatre massacre, singing “You’ve got a friend”.
jeremiah says
Don’t they have kidnapping charges in the Ukraine? Talk about taking advantage of a captive audience and stretching the limits of whether someone can legally do this to people.
Chaya says
Don’t some of these thar guitar playin rock n rollers overdose on drugs?
SPURWING PLOVER says
Give them rounds of Windmills of t he Mind, Puff the Magic Dragon, Weave me the Sunshine Etc.
Reader says
And Blinken’s not a serious guitar player (or intellect, for that matter.)
