This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

JON KARL: What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she's gonna go after hate speech? A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech

TRUMP: We'll probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. You have a lot of hate in your hate. Maybe they'll have to go after you.

Stories of undercover operatives who stay behind enemy lines and later fight in special ops units, through some of the war’s toughest battles, are usually found in movies or games. But this isn’t fiction. Here are key points from our interview with Artem "Skhidnyi" Karyakin 🧵:

The Trump admin has decided to permit the sale of devices that enable standard firearms to fire like machine guns — a move that one person familiar with the matter said was "by far the most dangerous thing this administration has done" on gun policy.

Bradley is negen maanden getrouwd met de Peruaanse Silvia. Ze werd gedetineerd na terugkomst van hun huwelijksreis. Bradley stemde Trump maar had niet gedacht dat zijn geliefde mogelijk uitgezet zou worden. Luister hier naar zijn verhaal:

Meanwhile, in the Russian army, attempting to protect infantry from Ukrainian FPV drones, the Russians decided to develop a homemade portable EW system. It seems, according to their expectations, that it is supposed to protect them from Ukrainian drone attacks.

The silence from much of the Washington DC think tank world, while Trump is actively helping Putin kill Ukrainians is shocking. Where are all the analysts who were saying that they supported Ukraine?

Russians are bogged down and suffering serious losses in Chasiv Yar due to Ukraine’s significant drone advantage—essentially, they can't even lift their heads. The use of armoured vehicles is extremely limited. EW is ineffective due to the rapid adaptation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Ik ben geveld door de griep, dus sprak @christinepvdd.bsky.social namens mij de bijdrage over Oekraïne uit.

De PvdD staat pal achter de Oekraïense burgers. Zij weten precies wat hun te wachten staat als Poetin de oorlog wint. Europa moet meer samenwerken om onafhankelijk te worden van de VS.

"It was not immediately clear what Washington could specifically seek in return for any sanctions relief."
Nor has it been clear what anyone but Russia has gained from one unilateral concession to the aggressor after another.

Cool, Putin gets premium treatment as a revered dear partner as well as everything he has stolen and even much more -- Ukraine gets a spit in the face, an extorted $500 billion bill, no security guarantees, and a new Russian offensive to kill it as soon as Russia is ready.
