Hey #Trump. There is a war going on! Ask your buddy Vlad for elections and adk him not to murder opponents!
🇺🇸🇺🇦 Trump: You know, they’re using war not to hold an election, but I would think the Ukrainian people should have that choice.

And maybe Zelensky would win. I don’t know who would win.

You know, they talk about a democracy, but it gets to a point where it’s not a democracy anymore.

The Supreme Court seems poised to hand Trump autocratic power by allowing him to fire independent agency officials for any reason
Supreme Court Seems Ready To Blow Up A 90-Year-Old Precedent
Such a decision will “destroy the structure of government” and remove one of the remaining roadblocks to the president’s ability to do whatever he wants.

Breaking news: Ukraine will not surrender territory, President Zelensky declared, rejecting a central Russian demand that President Trump had incorporated into his latest proposal to end the Kremlin’s war.
Zelensky rules out ceding land to Russia, refusing to bow to Putin or Trump
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said his country would not give up territory, not to hasten peace talks, not to satisfy Washington and not under pressure from Moscow.

Close the baltic sea for all russian shipping. At least inspect every vessel passing throygh the Sund or the Storebelt
🇷🇺 Russia has started shipping LNG to China again, bypassing Europe and Africa. The Baltic LNG plant Portovaya LNG shipped the first post‑sanctions cargo on the tanker Valera, which delivered gas to China’s Beihai terminal. China continues to import Russian fuel despite U.S. sanctions.

Ni #DozyDon , you made lufe for americans unbearably expensive. And throwing goverment money at it and lowering interest rate will fuel inflation even more.
Trump: "We inherited a mess. Affordability, but you can call it affordability or anything you want, but the Democrats caused the affordability problem and we're the ones that are fixing it. So it's a very simple statement. They caused it, we're fixing it."

Scott Bessent said something remarkable on Fox News yesterday. If Russia attacked Europe, he said, the US would... sell us weapons - but no troops. NATO kaput, in other words. Should this not be headline news across Europe? Is it not a sign of EU brain death that it is not?

Now Orban uses war propaganda to influence the elections that he knows he’s likely to lose.

This is literally what the regime in Georgia brainwashed its supporters with - if the opposition comes to power, we will immediately be at war with Russia.

They are all the same.

De Verenigde Staten verschieten trouwens sneller van kleur dan het oude continent. Spaans heeft inmiddels het Engels in sommige Staten al vervangen als 1e taal. Trump weet niet eens hoe hij beschaving moet spellen en die moet óns vertellen dat de Europese beschaving verdwijnt?

In December '91, Ukrainians across every region voted for independence from the USSR. 34 years later, a group of prominent Ukrainians published a manifesto in @pravda.ua, setting out a path to victory and a definitive break with the 'Russian world'.

Delusional / Useless. Good riddance.
Trump’s outgoing Ukraine envoy Kellogg seems convinced a resolution to Russia’s aggression is close, saying only “a couple of issues” remain, namely Ukrainian territorial concessions and the ZNPP. As if handing a fortress to the aggressor would end the war rather than trigger the next one.

There is no point along the chain of command—from then-VADM Bradley down to the crew member triggering the missile—where anyone has any excuse whatsoever for giving or following that order.
