Why is the leaked document about Ukraine called a “peace plan”?
It’s a blatant Russian attempt to bribe Trump and his oligarchs to profit from a continued war.
Who is fooled by this nonsense?

Please, let not the BBC bow to Tromp extortion!

As embarrassing as yesterday’s performances by SecDef Hegseth and POTUS were, maybe they served a purpose. Many of the top brass likely stay as far as possible away from DC politics.
Now they saw for themselves what incompetent idiocy actually is in power.

Slava Ukrainii!

MAGA is a cult, but cults have a vision, a utopia. I only see grift and personal enrichment for Trump.

I’m getting worried.

Just a point: I agree that Elon is a complete asshat.
However, when I bought my Tesla ten years ago I hardly knew who he was and the vehicle has been great, is paid for and has free supercharging, so I’m not getting rid of it.
So please don’t harass me.

Isn’t it time to help defend Ukrainian airspace now? We don’t want US boots on the ground, but it’d be great to see Ukraine being able to operate without worrying about what’s coming at them in their OWN AIRSPACE.

”Give Pete Buttigieg a big, fat contract and as much airtime as he wants. I’m being partial here, but the dude might be the best communicator I have ever heard. Maybe even consider some Crossfire variant where he calmly smashes a conservative lackey to smithereens on a weekly basis”

Pelican feeding frenzy. Fascinating!

Suddenly all the pelicans in the neighborhood gathered..

I just joined and was immediately swamped by cat pics. So I felt a need to give you my boy Frank. You’re welcome!
