Retired Colonel MacGregor Based Observations on the Ukraine Conflict and Zelensky

[Colonel Frank Grimes]

The Fox News tool did not like what MacGregor had to say about Zelensky, lolz. He dispels a lot of misinformation about supposed Russian military incompetence and points out Zelensky is no hero but is instead harming the Ukrainian people with his decisions. MacGregor had predicted the war would kick off after the Olympics.

Kosovo War
In 2014, Macgregor went on Russian state-owned RT to express his opposition to U.S. intervention in the Kosovo War.

2014 Russian annexation of Crimea
In 2014, after Russia annex Crimea and was engaged in a conflict with Ukraine over its eastern parts, Macgregor appeared on Russian state-owned network RT where he called for the annexation of the Donbas and said residents of the region "are in fact Russians, not Ukrainians, and at the same time, you have Ukrainians in the west and in the north, who are not Russians.

2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine
After Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Macgregor appeared on three Fox News programs to speak in support of Russia's actions. Russian state television broadcast excerpts of Macgregor's appearances, which included a characterization of Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a "puppet," that Russian forces had been "too gentle" in the early days of the invasion and that Russian president Vladimir Putin was being "demonized" by the United States and NATO. Macgregor said he believed Russia should be allowed to seize whatever parts of Ukraine it wanted. After one of his appearances, Macgregor's comments were characterized by veteran Fox News Pentagon correspondent Jennifer Griffin as "appeasement" and that he was being an "apologist" for Putin. After Griffin's remarks, Tucker Carlson — who hosted Macgregor on two successive nights — remarked, "Unlike many of the so-called reporters you see on television, he is not acting secretly as a flack for Lloyd Austin at the Pentagon. No, Doug Macgregor is an honest man." Trey Gowdy, another Fox News host who interviewed Macgregor, said his viewpoint was "stunning and disappointing."

Unfortunately, showing up on Fox News means no one will dare take him seriously.

Where’s the clip of him saying the war is over and that Putin’s main goal was the US funded bio labs

He said the battle in eastern Ukraine was almost over back around March 2nd. I don't know what else you're referring to.

I haven't heard him say anywhere that the cause of the conflict was US funded bio labs. He's said, as many have said, that Putin doesn't want NATO on its border.

Fox News doesn't take him seriously (except Tucker Carlson). I'm surprised they had him on another Fox program. Fox News, CNN, etc. despite their ideological differences are all on board with the same narrative for this conflict except for Tucker Carlson. Carlson is too popular with the American people for Fox News to get rid of. It's funny: Carlson was a neo-Con before he got his job and then gradually changed his views and so now Fox News is stuck with him because he's too popular with the American public to dump.

They were all on board with previous conflicts as well. What a shocker.

Saw the interview a couple days ago, and the army guy opposed the fox guys narrative.
Fox is typically 'neocon' and liberal.
