Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator?
This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

Every single time Trump has a meeting with Zelensky, Putin calls Trump the day before and Trump’s position in the Zelensky meeting then mirrors the Russian position. The talking points are the same, with all the same lies. It’s a simple playbook for Putin and it works every time.

Greetings from Kyiv.
Morning began with missiles.
My train to visit my mom left without me –
I couldn’t leave my dearest ones during the attack.
Mom said her whole town is without power.
Slept poorly. Warcoffee time. More missiles on the way.
