As for the claims the U.S. and allies did nothing in the West, maybe a study of the casualties inflicted on the Germans in Europe from landing at Normandy and Anzio in the few months leading to fall might disabuse that notion, at least for reasonable people. They inflicted around 40% of the total causalities in that period, not counting a far more impressive surrender of some 2 million German military on top of that, and of course providing the Soviets with the means to even be in the war at all, and being the reason the Soviets had air superiority to boot. This a ratio of around 3 to 5 for every American casualty, compared to the Soviets, whose ratio in most battles was the exact opposite. This is why the notion that just because the Soviets lost the most men they won most of the war is ridiculous; they lost the most men because they were worse strategists and tacticians, and opted for human wave style 'offensives'.
Roosevelt didn't have the advantage of hindsight to base decisions on, though, so yes, in hindsight he should have been a much tougher negotiator, but to claim he was a commie and all the rest of the gibberish is just lunacy and lying.
