Oh, I thought is was going to be a rally to come to an agreement, to end this what a waste of lives 😢
What about the millions of homeless and poor in California? What is the government doing for them? Corruption everywhere… 😢
How about some solidarity for your fellow Americans and support closing the Southern Border. Ukraine has nothing to do with us
Ukraine lost this war 6 months in. Peace Treaty was on the table. UK and US said no. And now there’s an EO in Ukraine that it’s against the law to negotiate with Russia. Ukraine is now conscripting women and old men. Report the truth or your just adding to the meat grinder.
Isolationism is always better than McCarthyism
We’ve always been at war with Eurasia.
These mindless bots care more about a former soviet block country then they do their own country.
It's for show. 7 comments listed but only 3 shown?😆
I feel nothing for Ukraine. 🤷🏼♂️
I did not understand - why are these young healthy men not on Ukrainian front???/
We does America have to fight Ukraines war ?
Are these people aware of the fact that 500,000 Ukrainians have either died or been seriously wounded in this war? It has been a MASSIVE tragedy and it needs to end. 2:13 Ukraine is fighting a war that they never could win. They are never winning back the land that's been lost. Ukraine never should have insisted on joining NATO. All could have been avoided if they agreed not to join NATO. 75 billion dollars wasted.
i dont think this rally is going to be helping anyone tonight.. its not going to block 1 single missile and you know it and i know it.
It's interesting experiment, can one country fully feed and finance other quite large 40 mlns country without any feedback, it's large grain producer but you can't take that grain, can't even ask anything like mandate to use english from them, nothing, just be sponsor.
That's less people than a line for free PS5 giveaway.
CAN WE FIX AMERICA FIRST?!!! WE got a lot of problems everywhere in the STATES!!!!!!
US supporting Azof battalion
Restore Russia boarders. 😮
How many actors did they have to hire?😆
Someone should tell these folks they are suppose to represent the American people. I’m sure Ukraine would accept these folks if they want to move there. I recently watched a very well sourced documentary called Ukraine on Fire which really gives insight into so much that has has led up to this. The amount of information in the documentary was stunning and it’s all documented/shown. It’s really a history lesson and I found it so interesting I’ve watched it a few times now. My propaganda meter is pretty sensitive that if I get the slightest sense that’s what it is I have a hard time watching/listening. I once watched a video that was put out by the military decades ago, the quality was horrible to say the least but about midway through it occurred to me that it was filled with a whole lot of bs. For example at one point it spoke of some guys having to move a plane that was frozen to the ground, even had video of these men all pushing this plane by its wing however there is absolutely no way that the men could have even touched the wing of the plane they claimed was stuck as it was too big in reality. Not too mention the real actual size of said plane is in fact very large yet looked very small in the video near the men. There was so much weird things in the video it was baffling.
