How is it propaganda that almost a year and a half after Russia invaded Ukraine they still haven’t been able to take over when the mainstream media was reporting predictions that Kiev would fall in days?
How is it propaganda that Putin’s hot chef/chief mercenary turned on him?
In 2014, after the annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation and during a conflict with Ukraine over its eastern parts, Macgregor appeared on Russian state-owned network RT where he called for annexation of 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”.
After Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Macgregor appeared on three Fox News programs in February and early March to speak in support of Russia’s actions. Three days after the war began, he said “The battle in eastern Ukraine is really almost over,” and predicted “If [Ukraine] don’t surrender in the next 24 hours, I suspect Russia will ultimately annihilate them.” Macgregor said he believed Russia should be allowed to seize whatever parts of Ukraine it wanted. In his second appearance, he revised his prediction: “The first five days Russian forces I think frankly were too gentle. They’ve now corrected that. So, I would say another 10 days this should be completely over… I think the most heroic thing he could do right now is come to terms with reality. Neutralize Ukraine.”
In September 2022, he again predicted on Carlson’s show that “this war may be over soon”[69] and later in the month “the Ukrainian army is bled white, tens of thousands of Ukrainian troops have been killed or wounded, Ukraine is really on the ropes”.
Sure sounds like a guy who knows what he’s talking about, eh Ron?

You can take to useful idiot off of Russian Times, but you can’t take the Russian propaganda out of the useful idiot.
Why doesn’t Ron Paul take up against his peers that are trying to ban books in libraries they’ll never use and his peers attacks on the right to vote?
Not even sure what Ron Paul believes outside of his obvious love for Putin?

Somebody needs to change Ron’s diaper.
