Jännää että tämä vaaliraha-asia oli PeVissä jo 23.5. mutta asia tuli HS:n ansiokkaan jutun kautta tietoon vasta viikkoa myöhemmin. Vihreätkin tiedotti kannastaan vasta eilen. Kiusaantunut hiljaisuus? yle.fi/a/74-20165314

Witkoff was a fool for joining that chat from Moscow. But the entire charlatan national security team also chose to put him on that chat when they knew (or should have known) that he was in Moscow. A spy novel based on this level of cretinous behavior would be unbelievable.
If they’re sharing highly classified military plans over Signal while some of the folks on the thread are overseas, what *else* are they doing?

[Journalist]”Do u,Mr. President,think that Putin is taking advantage of the U.S. pause right now on intelligence& military aid to #Ukraine?"
Trump:"I think he wants to get it stopped& settled,I think he's hitting them harder...I think probably anybody in that position would be doing that right now”

Not to spoil the mood but just a little reminder that BlueSky is not representative of opinion at large, and not everyone is appalled by Trump’s treatment of Zelensky. On other social media platforms and in some newspapers the conversation looks very different than it does here…

So many liberal Americans are desperate to normalize their country. Seeing Trumps everywhere. Thinking every other country will be like theirs. They seem incapable of accepting that the US has much higher support for far right and is in a far worse state than Europe (bar Hungary).
