Sätze, die man aus einigen Ecken nicht hört:

„Natürlich hat der Iran ein Recht auf Selbstverteidigung, aber auch die Pflicht zur Klugheit, einzusehen, wann man sich ergeben muss.“

„Weder Sanktionen noch Waffenlieferungen stoppen diesen Horror“

Putin's footprint in history. When a person is unable to create something, he destroys. This is my native Kyiv in the massive Russian shelling.

Yet another parallel with Orbán strategies: Make the country less educated (betting that those with high school diplomas only will be less troublesome politically):
Lutnick: "The army of millions and millions of human beings screwing in little screws to make iPhones -- that kind of thing is going to come to America."

The Trump admin pushes elections in Ukraine because this is one of Pu's demands. Pu pushes elections because he thinks Ru could destabilize Ukraine and somehow install a puppet as Ukrainian president thus enabling Ru to diplomatically conquer Ukraine now that the military conquest is failing.

Ru is relentlessly pursuing its original goals of demilitarizing Ukraine and leaving it without security guarantees so it can invade the rest of it without resistance.

Don't fall for Trump's announcement that he'll use tariffs to bring russia to the negotiation table. He stopped aid to Ukraine, he stopped sharing intelligence, and he's still pushing for Zelensky's removal. The tariff talk is empty rhetoric. He also imposes and lifts those twice a day.

"If the United States was in trouble and we called them..."

Anyone remember 9/11? Should NATO members ask the US for a minerals deal, given the contributions they made after Article 5 was invoked back then...?
REPORTER: Are you gonna make it US policy that the US wouldn't defend NATO countries that don't pay their fair share?

TRUMP: Well, I think it's common sense. If they don't pay I'm not gonna defend them. No, I'm not gonna defend them.

Trump says he wants a thank you from Ukraine. He's getting it from Russia.

If the US cuts funding for Ukraine, it will have nothing to do with Zelenskyy and everything to do with Trump's weakness. Trump has no plans to end the war and WILL NOT standup to Putin. I wrote the US would cut support to Ukraine in the epilogue of my new book written just days after the election.

Wir müssen mehr in Sicherheit investieren. Doch ein Sondervermögen nur für Verteidigung ist der falsche Weg.

Stattdessen braucht es eine Reform der Schuldenbremse. Die Mehrheiten dafür zu schmieden ist eine Bewährungsprobe für das politische System.

Wer noch behauptet, dass man mit Trump schon klarkäme, dass die USA noch ein zuverlässiger Verbündeter europäischer Demokratien seien, der hat nicht nur den Schuss, sondern die Schüsse nicht gehört - will sie nicht hören oder tut so, als wäre nix. Das ist vieles, nur keine realitätsbasierte Analyse.

📌NOTE: Immediately after the vile attack on Zelensky by Putin's puppets Friday, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries should have called a joint press conference and explained to the American public the significance, heinousness and danger of that sickening surrender.

📌They should STILL be talking now.

Norwegian fuel supplier Haltbakk Bunkers announced refusal to refuel US naval forces in Norway immediately following the White House ambush on President Zelensky.
The company's Facebook announcement was deleted just moments ago.

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT?

Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

Nein, zelensky stand NICHT kurz vor einem Deal. Sonst hätten sie ihn hinter verschlossener Tür verhandelt und auf der Pressekonferenz präsentiert. Trump und Vance wollten genau das: zelensky als aggressor dastehen lassen, der „Vorteile“ erzwingen will. Putin -Puppet -Trump

I honestly do not understand liberal/progressive people and institutions who are still using X.

Can someone explain? I'm finding it very hard not to be angry.

Zelensky looks overwhelmed with emotion, hearing Starmer’s warm words. Zelensky must be absolutely shattered and traumatized, yet retains his dignity. Thank you, Keir, for standing by Ukraine 🇺🇦!
BREAKING: 'You have full backing across the United Kingdom'

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer tells Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, 'We stand with you and Ukraine for as long as it may take' 👏

"I told Zelensky to find a way to restore relations with Trump," - NATO Secretary General Rutte

Rutte seems to have missed the battle yesterday, otherwise he wouldn't be able to talk such nonsense.
