Since his first visit to Russia in 2025, no tangible progress has been made on key negotiating issues, with no breakthrough in sight. Catering to Putin has only prolonged the war, as he is now more confident that he can press Ukraine into his version of a deal. Don’t you see it?

To his credit, Bernie Sanders is much better on foreign policy then Corbyn and Melenchon
Disgraceful. Trump sacrifices Ukrainian lives in order to appease his fellow authoritarian, Mr. Putin. The U.S. must release the transfer of interceptor missiles to Ukraine. No U.S. alliance with the Russian dictatorship.

Why are Ukrainian lives valued less than diesel prices?

The only issue here is that child killers in Kremlin want entire Ukraine and Putin has never agreed to any ceasefire.. But you already knew this, Luna. The question is - why do you not talk about russian crimes against humanity?

Apparently, invading your neighbour is now considered humanitarian work.
Steve Witkoff to Putin: You talk so much about my president, President Trump, being a humanitarian. You are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that, I commend you, and I thank you again.

a reminder: genocide is the systematic destruction of an entire group of people. this includes murder— and destroying cultural artifacts, books, language, art. russia is committing genocide.
Perhaps it didn’t make the news in your media. Yesterday, russia damaged the Book Chamber of Ukraine in Kyiv. It holds 15+ million books, newspapers, magazines and maps published in Ukraine since 1917. The collections are now at risk from moisture. Windows in the storage areas were blown out.

Relevant in the light of those promised "security guarantees for Ukraine"
BREAKING: The U.S. is now preparing to completely abandon Gulf countries, as Trump envoy Tom Barrack directly warns Gulf allies that Washington can no longer guarantee their security indefinitely, telling regional officials in Doha that they must take responsibility for their own defense, signalling the end of the U.S. security umbrella in the Middle East, per the Wall Street Journal. Barrack said the 80-year-old U.S. security-for-oil arrangement is no longer sustainable, pointing to regional defense partnerships as the way forward. The warning comes as Gulf states face Iranian strikes on U.S. military infrastructure and growing uncertainty over Washington’s future military commitment to the region.

"in a town that got hit or whatever" 2 days ago, russians killed a baby in a stroller. every day, russians attack ukrainian cities and murder people. but sure, it's all "whatever.'' for him and the entire US administration, the shelling of russian oil refineries is far worse
⚡️ "Some people in a town that got hit or whatever, but mostly soldiers die." Trump on Russian shelling of civilians in Ukraine.

'Pro-white anticommunists' when it comes to supporting white Christian anticommunists
How about this: Zelenskyy can have his Starlink and Patriot missiles if he relocates every Somali, Congolese, and Afghan immigrant in America (and their families) to Ukraine

Trump: “Russia is a great power. Ukraine is not.” “Zelensky needs to want to end this war, and if he doesn’t, I think it will be very bad. The Russians continue to advance. They have unlimited manpower. We’ve given Ukraine enormous amounts of money. In return, all we’ve gotten is high diesel prices.”

Why is Sarah not discussing her childhood growing up as a Russian identifying Jewish girl in Donbas? Because she is an alcoholic from New Jersey who gave up her daughter to drink Tito's Vodka and LARP online. Humiliating that RIA must lower itself to working with such people.

Ukraine has no chance of winning the war. You have been a terrible president. All you’ve done is get all the males in Ukraine killed

That's silly, you can easily be anti war while believing a sovereign nation has the right to defend itself. Standing up to aggression doesn't make you pro war, you don't have to believe in "peace at any cost" to value and love peace. In fact, history has demonstrated time and time again that weakness invites war and conquest.
Replying to @JustinWStapley
You cannot be anti war and pro Zelensky. Works both ways.

But they do not have an inexhaustible economy. This is exactly what Lindsey's sanctions were supposed to target. This is exactly what Ukraine's refinery strike campaign was targeting. Giving up on Ukraine is giving up on the West. It is that simple. Lindsey knew this.
❗️Trump on Russia: Russians continue to move forward. They have an inexhaustible supply of people.

The Soviet Union was hardly pro-family or socially conservative. It allowed abortion at all stages of pregnancy and ripped apart families by shipping people off to gulags for crimes they didn’t commit. 🤡
Replying to @Gabby_Hoffman
The Soviet Union was indeed communist, but it was not woke. In fact it was socially conservative.

Trump understands Moscow would have taken Kiev in a week had Biden not intervened on Ukraine’s behalf. Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians wouldn’t have been sent to slaughter by their dictator.

While filming THE VIKINGS in 1958, actor Kirk Douglas lamented that there were "no more Vikings left in Norway." Taking exception to the comment, seven Norwegians sailed across the Atlantic to New York in a replica Viking longship. They carried a kitten as a mascot, noting that all Viking ships sailed with a cat. The kitten was named Freydis after the daughter of Erik the Red. #cat #cats #catlovers #catlore

Yea but the alternative is getting genocided by bug aliens so humanity is inherently the good guys from this fact alone
Neil Patrick Harris is the only young actor in the cast smart enough to realize this. He goes from the smartass friend in a recognizable late-90s high school sex dramedy to "what if Reinhard Heydrich was psychic?"
