Candace Owens tears the New York Times a new one...

Dana Mathewson

From a Power Line article by John Hinderaker:

For me, the Ukraine situation is pretty simple. Ukraine didnâ€™t invade Russia, Russia invaded Ukraine. And Russia is our geopolitical rival/enemy, while Ukraine is not. So I am on Ukraineâ€™s side and am happy to do what we can to help the Ukrainians, without committing acts of war against Russia. Like, say, shooting down their airplanes.

So I am part of what seems to be an unusually broad consensus among Americans. That said, I agree with Scott [Johnson] that commentators like Tucker Carlson perform a valuable service by providing a counterpoint to the hawkish, pro-Ukraine perspective that we hear every day. Candace Owens is another who has been a Ukraine/war skeptic, and, like Tucker, she has been accused of promulgating Russian propaganda.

That is the angle the New York Times is taking. A Times reporter reached out to Candace to let her know that a smear was in the offing:

Candace is so much smarter than a Times reporter that you knew right away this was going to be good. Candace didnâ€™t disappoint:

Just for fun, she piled on:

1 This is still the New York Incompetents and they prove it everyday. BTW anyone else noticing the daily Putin is doomed from almost every angle they can dream up at night and still he keeps right on ticking? Maybe one day one of the talking heads will get lucky on some wild guess and Putin may actually be put down and they'll earn a pulitzer and write books that all universities will be forced to include in their curriculum.

2 That is a great point Mike. It's the playbook they use to promote Democrats over Republicans.

Remember how every day we heard Trump was toast, that he was coming to his end? And after the dog and pony show Trump was still just fine.

We've seen that with other Republicans, mainly with conservatives running. The news is always bad for them. Reagan never stood a chance and Carter was going to win in a tidal wave election, for another example.

So now they are trying to use this on Putin. But he's cut from another cloth.
