Topics
Jason Chaffetz认为，一场新的冷战已经开始，因为俄罗斯在网络空间、外层空间和欧洲的侵略行动。如果没有强有力的反击和威慑，俄罗斯将继续造成大规模的破坏。他批评拜登政府在应对俄罗斯侵略问题上领导力薄弱，沟通和姿态都显得软弱无力，未能有效阻止普京的行动。他还认为，对俄罗斯的制裁无效，美国需要采取更强硬的措施，并确保欧洲盟友的支持，通过能源供应等方式，支持乌克兰并对抗俄罗斯。他还认为达勒姆调查比水门事件更严重，因为它涉及对总统的间谍活动，甚至包括试图获取总统的医疗记录。他认为共和党应该继续为达勒姆调查提供资金和独立性，如果共和党赢得众议院，他们应该调查司法部和联邦调查局，并传唤相关人员作证。他认为传统媒体缺乏求知欲和诚实是其在担任监督委员会主席期间最大的失望。他还认为需要揭露Mark Elias及其行为，才能解决Perkins Coie的问题，但传统媒体不会这样做。 Sam Stone认为，拜登政府是美国历史上应对类似危机最糟糕的政府，甚至不如奥巴马政府。他还认为，俄罗斯入侵乌克兰是对乌克兰人民的全球性抢劫，这将增强俄罗斯控制欧洲其余地区的能力。 Chuck Warren认为，达勒姆调查比水门事件更严重，因为它涉及对总统的间谍活动，甚至包括试图获取总统的医疗记录。他还认为，加拿大政府对卡车司机抗议的过度反应，动用了紧急状态法，这表明政府在打压政治对手。 Charles C.W. Cooke认为，拜登政府对俄罗斯和中国的应对能力不足，世界局势失控。他认为，美国作为全球主要力量，应该维护边界完整性，否则将危及全球安全。如果美国对俄罗斯入侵乌克兰采取放任态度，将为中国入侵台湾制造先例。他还认为，美国宪法保障公民权利，而加拿大缺乏类似的制度保障。他认为，美国各州拥有主权地位，这使得不同州可以采取不同的政策，佛罗里达州的成功就是一个例子。他还认为，美国建国者具有远见卓识，美国宪法是他们杰出的成就。他还认为，一些左翼人士开始关注言论自由等基本自由主义原则。
