Only once people admit that the entire Ukraine-Russia negotiations process being orchestrated by the USA/Trump is first and last a sham designed to help Putin as much as possible (and provide massive payoffs to the administration), will people be able to discuss it honestly.

Nearly 70 percent of Americans believe the Epstein files "show that powerful people in the U.S. are rarely held accountable for their actions."

Trump does not want peace, he does not want security, he does not care about lost lives and he does not want to work with Europe. He wants to help Putin/Russia and make as much money as possible. That is all this is. Everything else is a steaming pile of BS.

Once again I'm asking Democrats to take their messaging cues from the sitting Democratic Senator who is the most vulnerable for re-election in 2026
Ossoff: "There are some folks who are doomscrolling in the fetal position. Every day there is a new outrage. It's easy I know to fear that maybe we could lose our republic. I think what John Lewis would tell us is it's up to us. We have the power to right the ship. Nobody is gonna do it for us."

Any press availability about this should just be one question after another about "isn't this just an obvious effort at diversion?"
A lot of places are about to be bombed in a country far away and a good many people killed because Donald Trump cannot make anyone forget or ignore the accusations of what he did with young girls.
That is now the foreign policy of the United States.
