This was a live stream so the link takes you to the last couple mins. You need to pull the minute mark line back to the beginning of the stream. Ritter is on immediately and his participation ends at the 48min. mark
Give us the cliff notes.

Arrests and conviction for sex offences
(Scott) Ritter was the subject in two law enforcement sting operations in 2001.[31] He was charged in June 2001 with trying to set up a meeting with an undercover police officer posing as a 16-year-old girl.[32][33] He was charged with a misdemeanor crime of “attempted endangerment of the welfare of a child”. The charge was dismissed and the record was sealed after he completed six months of pre-trial probation.[33][34] After this information was made public in early 2003, Ritter said that the timing of the leak was politically motivated in order to silence his opposition to the Bush administration’s push toward war with Iraq.[32][33][35]
Ritter was arrested again in November 2009[36] over communications with a police decoy he met on an Internet chat site. Police said that he exposed himself, via a web camera, after the officer repeatedly identified himself as a 15-year-old girl.[2] Ritter said in his own testimony during the trial that he believed the other party was an adult acting out her fantasy.[37] The chat room had an ‘age 18 and above’ policy, which Ritter stated to the undercover officer.[2] The next month, Ritter waived his right to a preliminary hearing and was released on a $25,000 unsecured bail. Charges included “unlawful contact with a minor, criminal use of a communications facility, corruption of minors, indecent exposure, possessing instruments of crime, criminal attempt and criminal solicitation”.[38] Ritter rejected a plea bargain and was found guilty of all but the criminal attempt count in a courtroom in Monroe County, Pennsylvania, on April 14, 2011.[2][39] In October 2011, he received a sentence of 1½ to 5½ years in prison.[40] He was sent to Laurel Highlands state prison in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, in March 2012 and paroled in September 2014.[41][37][34]
Just for the record I’ve never been a fan of Ritter personally, and he obviously has an axe to grind with the US establishment. But I will occasionally listen to what he has to say, taking his biases into account. But I prefer a synopsis, not going to wade through a long video with him.
I have come to like watching Ritter videos, but I prefer to catch them a couple or a few weeks later when they are good humor.
Not this loon again !
Indeed so.
Has he exposed propositioned any teenage girls yet? That would make an amusing live stream when he saw that they were actually police officers.
The link is to the uber-leftist You Tube channel, “The Left Lens,” which is a self-described socialist and “anti-imperialist” forum. It is aligned with the equally rabid leftist “Black Agenda Report.”
Question to you: Are you a leftist?

[Danny Haiphong is a socialist activist, writer, and political analyst. For the last five years, Haiphong has been a weekly contributor to Black Agenda Report. His articles have also appeared in publications such as MintPressNews, Counterpunch, The American Herald Tribune, The Center for Global Research (Canada) and The Herald (Zimbabwe). Haiphong has frequently appeared on Black Agenda Radio, CPRNews with Don Debar, The Taylor Report, RT, and Sputnik International. His work was recently featured in former Congresswoman and Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney’s latest book How the U.S. Creates “Sh*thole Countries (2018).
Danny Haiphong summarized the various components of the New Cold War against China. These include the failed trade war initiated under the Trump administration, sanctions against the Communist Party of China and tech firms like Huawei, and the military ‘Pivot to Asia’ which began under the Obama administration. Haiphong concluded by explaining how the New Cold War reflects a desperate attempt of declining U.S. imperialism to contain the rising socialist advancement of China, as well as the alternative path of global peace and cooperation it offers. A question-and-answer segment concluded the event.[1]]
Trump initiated failed trade war?
WTF?
F*ck Scott Ritter.
Ritter is so full of crap/
But, he immediately came up with so many false premises, that there was no point watching.
This has become to an extent, a proxy war for NATO. But, it only became so, because it became an existential war for Ukraine.
It never would have gotten this far, except the Ukrainians proved they could and would, fight.
The idea that Russia can change the conflict into an existential one for Russia by this obviously contrived "annexation" of Ukrainian territory, is silly.
It can only fly if the Russian people buy into it. I do not think they will do so.
No, Cathi is Putin’s troll. With horns and tail..
“Has he exposed propositioned any teenage girls yet?”
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Probably why he is expressing so much interest in the Ukraine. Lots of young girls there have lost boyfriends, husbands, fathers. Probably fantasizing about stepping in.
Ritter was way funnier when he was hanging with Janet and Crissy
Macgregor is another source good for a laugh, and sometimes you only have to wait a couple days. Whenever someone mentions a "good source", I always check out how their previous analysis "aged", without the benefit of watching them rehabilitate and reshape their predictions for days and weeks after they were horribly wrong. A buddy of mine mentioned "the duran", and I recommended he do the same. He scanned the week of episodes leading up to the fall of Kupiansk and Izyum, and came away saying the guy was completely clueless. Many folks here consider him the gold standard.
“No, Cathi is Putin’s troll.”
That’s obvious.
