Is the Ukraine con job almost through yet? Will the house of cards collapse soon?
I think so, and I think that’s why Zelensky’s request to appear at this year’s Academy Awards has been denied—the folks in show business know the jig is almost up.
Everyone knows that these folks don’t miss a single opportunity to virtue signal about politics and Zelensky has become an avatar for the American left.
Denying his request not once, but two years in a row suggests that he’s likely on the losing end of this proxy conflict between NATO forces and Russia—the deep state plan is not going as planned.
The backlash online was quick and significant:

Big shots at the Academy Awards have declined Zelensky’s request to speak at this year’s ceremony. And the reason is simple. Hollywood can spot a con a mile away. And they just can’t perpetuate this Zelenskyy as hero horseshit any longer. https://t.co/98XFs9eIqi

Breitbart explains:
The decision comes as public support for sending arms to Ukraine is softening, with a recent poll showing 48 percent of U.S. adults in favor of providing weapons to Ukraine, while 29 percent are opposed and 22 percent saying they’re neither in favor nor opposed.

Variety broke the story:
For the second year in a row, the Academy has snubbed Zelenskyy, who was hoping to follow up his Berlin Film Festival (remote) appearance last month with a virtual spot on Sunday’s Oscar telecast on ABC.
Sources say WME power agent Mike Simpson made a plea to the Academy to include the comedic actor-turned-politician but was shut down. The Academy declined comment.
Zelenskyy’s overtures to the Oscars comes as polls show Americans’ support for providing assistance to Ukraine has weakened.
