Staind’s Aaron Lewis is never afraid to voice his opinion. Recently the 49-year-old outspoken rocker voiced his views on the Russian invasion of Ukraine during his March 17 concert in Portsmouth, Ohio, and he called out both Democrats and Republicans before questioning America’s support of Ukraine. “So, I’m not gonna go into some big get-myself-in-trouble dissertation. All I’m gonna say is this: question everything. Everything that they’re telling you right now is a lie. Everything,” Lewis said. “We need to come to grips with something, people. This is our country. We own the most corrupt country in the world. So my question is, what are we gonna do about it? Because we put these people where they sit, to become corrupt and to sell us out all for their gain and not for ours. They’re supposed to represent us, not themselves. And they’re all guilty of it — 90 percent of ’em.

“I don’t know who’s worse — the Democrats that are trying to destroy this country or the Republicans that sit idly by while they do so. They all need to be removed. We need to start voting for people that aren’t lifetime politicians because those are the most lecherous, snake-in-the-grass pieces of sh*t that you can ever possibly put into power. The next governor needs to be you. The next senator needs to be you. We need to pick from our peers, people — people that have good ideas that we can stand behind; not these f*cking snake oil salesmen that tell us everything we wanna hear. And until we wake up, this country is going off the cliff, people.

Lewis continued saying the world is laughing at America. “We have no order. We have no president. Every single day that goes by, we lose standing in the world. Everyone’s laughing at us. Everyone is positioning themselves against us. And it’s not us — it’s the government that we put in power. These are the people that are making us look bad throughout the entire world — the same people that have you convinced that we all need to support Ukraine even though all of their money laundering systems, all of their everything, the way that they get all their kickbacks and they wash everything is all through the Ukraine.”

After ranting about mandates, Lewis said: “Don’t believe a word they f*cking tell you — not one word. You know, as f*cked up as it sounds, maybe we should listen to what Vladimir Putin is saying. Maybe, just maybe, when Klaus Schwab and George Soros and every other dirty f*cking earth-destroying motherfucker all jumps on the same bandwagon, maybe, just maybe we should f*cking take a good look at that. Why are they trying to protect Ukraine so much? What do they all have to lose?”
