The opposing American MSM view on the war in Ukraine.

I’ve held the same position since the first day and haven’t had any reason to change so was well aware of confirmation bias for myself going in.

Great interview.

lol. My only question is who is paying this guy. He's been claiming for a year and half that the Ukrainians are being wiped out and are days away from a total collapse. You'd think a Russian Army that "holds a great technological advantage" and was "wiping out" the Ukrainians in every battle would be having their victory parade by now---not holding less of the nation than they held 14 months ago and losing more territory by the day. So who is paying McGregor to paint an obviously---almost comical---false narrative? And why the hell is Tucker giving this false narrative a supportive big stage platform? You can make a great argument for being against our support for Ukraine without trying to create a ridiculously false narrative. This episode just makes Tucker look like some kind of delusional nut job.

He retired 19 years ago and is claiming the US would lose to Russia. “Get off my lawn Whitesnake!”

MacGregor has been wrong on everything about Ukraine. He should be embarrassed to keep speaking about it.

Agree with above. Who is paying this guy? Is the same guy paying Tucker?

Anyone who doesn’t like what he is saying is free to keep believing the MSM, our politicians, the State Department, the MIC, and their lobbyists.

No need. Just take what MacGregor has said over the last year and compare to whats actually happened. Lie enough and you simply lose any credibility. Its kinda like people who try to pretend that the Russian economy is booming.

In the end---its pretty easy to determine if the ruble is crashing or not. You need do nothing more than check the exchange rate on your brokerage account. Same with MacGregor---Ukraine is still fighting and apparently gaining ground (even Russian based news outlets admit this)---If Ukraine had really lost 400K soldiers and were getting "wiped out" in every battle---the Russians would have long ago had a victory parade down the streets of Kyiv. Instead---they are hoping to find a way to hang on Crimea and a portion of the Donbas. Again---its painfully obvious he's lying. My real interest in this situation is who's paying him to lie.

Michael Savage has interviewed the Colonel several times in his podcasts.

I’m just a really loyal Newsweek subscriber. The moment I saw that soft sided cooler they were offering, I knew I’d found the right source of news for me

If you find yourself aligned with the deep state, the military industrial complex and all of permanent Washington that should give a clue your doing something wrong.

And when you find yourself constantly aligned with Putin—one of the great mass murderers of our time—-you simply veer off any course I can follow. Sorry.

That is an OBVIOUS LIE and false choice and shows just what a weak position you have put yourself in over this.

NO ONE in this country has to side with Putin on ANYTHING to not wanna be involved in sending our blood and treasure to eastern Europe when we have a culture and nation in decline here.

Its not our war, its not our land, its not our people and its not our responsibility.

It is YOU who have aligned yourself with the most corrupt parts of the deep state, the military industrial complex and permanent Washington on this.

Meanwhile most patriots and conservatives have aligned themselves with the people of OUR country, not spending trillions of our taxpayer dollars on wars in eastern Europe.

XACLY!

Did I read that right that not only did Tucker give this guy a platform but he's been interviewing him off and on for awhile now on his podcasts? That's a terrible shame. No matter where you stand on the Ukraine war, Douglas Macgregor is NOT a credible expert on the matter. For the past year he's been talking about the demise of Ukraine's forces in a matter of weeks. A logical rebuttal would be "NATO has been propping them up so they can keep fighting". It makes sense UNTIL you see/read what Macgregor has been saying on the matter during that time - that Ukraine's troop numbers themselves are being decimated and thru attrition alone they will no longer be a fighting force. That's clearly not happened when you look at the news coming from both sides. The conclusion you must draw is that either Macgregor is intentionally lying or that he's clueless/incompetent.

Poor decisions by Tucker to keep entertaining this dope. I understand why people have been calling Tucker out as a shill of Putin. Giving Macgregor serious consideration is stupid - regardless of your view on the war.

Who decides who is telling the truth in Ukraine? Where are the satellite views of what is happening there? Surely that is available.

How is Putin a mass murderer? He may be a dictator true, but I haven't seen him repon the gulags in Siberia to send people who disagree with there in mass.
