No matter cause/effect for american action in Venezuela, this will inflict massive pain on the Russia-China axis. And US forces have made a laughing stock of the russian air defence in Venezuela. Putin must have a bad day now

A scorched boat washed ashore on a remote beach in Colombia. Then mangled bodies. And then empty packets, a few with marijuana traces. We matched the physical and digital evidence to a U.S. airstrike — and found a fishing community terrified to go to sea. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/29/w...

Would have been laughable if it wasn't so serious. But the homocidal maniacs in Moscow that rain bombs down on civilians in Ukraine every day, will say and do anything to stop a peace deal. Let's hope the US doesn't buy this, and support the ukrainians:

"Russia wants Ukraine to succeed" - Trump.
Oh, so 11 years of shooting and bombing civilians is just Putin helping Ukraine?

Ukraine is straight up draining the russian army. US and other western countries should ask them what support they want, and watch them continue to defend themselves heroically and crush Russia at the same time. Can't comprehend that US leadership doesn't see this

Hey USA, when will your leaders understand that Russia doesn't want peace - other than their bloody and dictatorial peace? There are peace talks taking place now and what does Putin show? Only aggression and evil:

The leadership of a democratic nation talks open about taking over a big part of a friendly ally. Even though this possibly is just another smokescreen; how did we get to this point in history?
December 23, 2025 at 3:02 PM
How is it possible to not read this as a direct threat from a (once) near and dear ally? I just hope that there is some opposition left in the US to stop what these extreme and anti-european politicians are thinking of. Or....?

Quite shocking to hear how political naive and late the Biden administration acted on the immigration to the US. Biden admin. not accepting how challenging the flow of immigrants to the US is/was, must have been a real christmas gift for the Trump campaign:

It seems that quite a few people - especially in the US government - need to read up on some basics about Nato and article 5.
The concept, now obviously contested by the US president, was invoked only once in history, by US in the aftermath of the attacks of 9/11:

"Russia is spared, unsurprisingly, similar criticism, and deemed a relationship worthy of strategic stability.”
Yeah, not surprised. But still it is so sad seeing a historically strong and strategic relationship being spit on like this.
