Military historian Phillips Oโ€™Brien: There have been no U.S. peace efforts in Ukraine. There have been efforts to get Putin a very good deal, forcing Ukrainians to give up more territory and people. That is not peace. That is Washington trying to deliver Putin a success. 1/

Trump is bad at reaching meaningful agreements with autocrats. He failed in his first term with Kim Jong Un. He played a game of chicken with Xi Jinping last year, and then backed down. He has accomplished nothing with Putin regarding the end of the war in Ukraine. Negotiations with autocrats in Iran are not going well either. He's better at coercing democratic allies.

Tulsi may not have been an actual Russian agent, but she acted exactly as if she was. She's still spouting long-debunked Russian propaganda talking points in this clip.
Loyal to the end. To Putin.

I was banned from traveling to Iran. I was sanctioned by Russia. I was hacked by China and now hacked by Russia. Putin will do anything to silence those who oppose him, but I know the difference between good and evil. You can tell a lot about a person by their enemies.

Today Ronald Reagan would say, โ€œMr Putin, get the hell out of Ukraine.โ€ He set the example for a strong โ€œPeace through Strengthโ€ policy guided by strong values.

This simple truth is what exposes the rotten core of "America First," just as it did to the original isolationist and often pro-fascist version in the 1930s. Even the most cynical, self-interested stance should favor supporting allied democracies against hostile dictatorships.
Senator Chris Coons (D) on the fate of Ukraine support bill in the Senate: "It has broad support among democrats and republicans" - why is it taking such a long time in this case, I ask - "because President Trump refuses to recognize that defending Ukraine is defending America"

A 62-year-old Russian Lieutenant General was blown up in his car in Russia this morning, Russian Telegram channels report. His name has not been disclosed yet, but if his rank is right, this will be the fourth successful liquidation of a Russian officer of such a high rank in the Russian rear. Head of Russian FSB has reported earlier that security around high-ranking Russian officers has been increased.

This is the same guy who was found guilty of defrauding people who contributed to the border wall. And he was a close buddy to Epstein.

Trump has no cards in Ukraine.
ZELENSKY: I told Trump that I didnโ€™t play with Putin. For us, itโ€™s very serious. Itโ€™s not about cards. I didnโ€™t have cards, but I had the most important โ€” smart and brave people. This is our card โ€” the card of Ukraine. Thatโ€™s why weโ€™re now very strong with our drone technology.

Steve Witkoff ran away when I confronted him about his financial ties to Russia. His real estate company has been bankrolled directly by a former advisor to Vladimir Putin's sovereign wealth fund. Heโ€™s been making pro russia statements for months.

Ambassador Dan Negrea, U.S. Representative to the UN Security Council: "Russia's invasion of Ukraine has been a strategic disaster. Its oil refineries are ablaze. Moscow cannot achieve its goals on the battlefield. Escalation will not change that and only risks making the disaster worse. This war must end now. Enough is enough."

A MESSAGE TO ALL SANE REPUBLICANS: He pardoned 1,600 violent criminals. You said nothing. He bulldozed the East Wing. You said nothing. He interfered with the release of the Epstein files. You said nothing. He took over the Kennedy Center and renamed it after himself. You said nothing. He accepted a $400 million airplane as a personal gift. You said nothing. He threatened Canada, Cuba, Denmark, Greenland, Venezuela, Colombia, and Brazil. You said nothing. He tariffed just about everyone but Russia, causing inflation and instability worldwide. You said nothing. He attacked a nation during mediated negotiations. You said nothing. His ill-conceived war killed 175 children on day one. You said nothing. He alienated and insulted our allies. You said nothing. His ICE Army terrorized and murdered U.S. citizens. You said nothing. He committed murder on the high seas. You said nothing. He co-opted the Justice Department and directed it to prosecute his political enemies. You said nothing. Itโ€™s time to start talking. By Christina Lorey

Trump is clearly the most corrupt president the US ever had. Why do republicans accept that? High time to impeach Trump with the support of the republicans!
BREAKING๐Ÿ“ท A woman donated $1 million to Trump's super PAC. Three weeks later, her son a convicted tax criminal was pardoned. His pardon application literally mentioned her donation. Her name is Elizabeth Fago. Her son, Paul Walczak, had pleaded guilty to federal tax crimes. The pardon application filed on his behalf explicitly cited his mother's million-dollar donation to MAGA Inc. as a reason he deserved clemency. Trump signed the pardon. Walczak walked free and was relieved of more than $4 million in restitution he owed. That is one entry on a donor list of 58 people who gave a million dollars or more. MAGA Inc., Trump's super PAC, has now raised over $305 million since the 2024 election five times more than any presidential super PAC in history at this stage. The Brennan Center called it "completely unprecedented." Ninety-six percent of it came from donors giving $1 million or more. Sixty-two percent from those giving $5 million or more. This is not a grassroots operation. It is a pay-window. Here's what the donor list actually shows. Crypto.com's parent company, Foris Dax, gave $30 million โ€” while it was under SEC investigation for allegedly trading unregistered securities. The SEC investigation was quietly dropped in March 2025, two months after the donation. The Winklevoss twins gave $1 million โ€” also while their crypto platform Gemini was under SEC investigation. That investigation was dropped in February 2025. Energy Transfer, the Texas pipeline company, and its CEO Kelcy Warren gave a combined $25 million โ€” while Energy Transfer was actively suing a federal regulatory agency in court. OpenAI President Greg Brockman and his wife gave $25 million โ€” as the Trump administration was actively shaping AI policy in Silicon Valley's favor. Then there are the appointments. Benjamin Landa gave $5 million then became Trump's ambassador to Hungary. Kelly Loeffler and her husband gave $5 million she now runs the Small Business Administration. Warren Stephens gave $2 million now ambassador to the United Kingdom. Jared Isaacman gave $2 million now NASA administrator. And Isabela Herrera, a 25-year-old self-employed financial consultant whose only prior political donation was $20 to Pete Buttigieg in 2020, somehow contributed $3.5 million to MAGA Inc. Her father a Venezuelan billionaire facing federal bribery charges was pardoned by Trump in January 2026. Campaign Legal Center has filed a formal complaint with the FEC alleging she was a straw donor for her father. This is not dark money. This is public record. Every dollar, every favor, every pardon. Filed with the FEC. Sitting in plain sight. If you appreciate my posts, it would mean the world if you followed my page. Thank you for being here

Imagine this: terrorists take 900 people hostage. They have political demands, offer to release 10 people a day. They name the opposition MP they're ready to talk to. The MP agreesโ€”but the president stops him, afraid the MP's rating might rise... ๐Ÿงต[1/7]
