⚡️ France replaces US as main intelligence provider to Kyiv, Macron says.
The change works to solve Kyiv's dependence on the U.S. for military intelligence, which has been wielded as leverage against Ukraine by the Trump admin on several occasions.

I think it’s basically time to retire the peace prize because it really is meaningless at this point. Another 100+ year-old tradition cheapened, wrecked, and discredited by the gauche garish gangster.

The Polish PM is stating the obvious while #Trump blames #Zelenskyy for the lack of peace. Who really benefits from never-ending war? We all know that!

Now that Trump got that medal from Machado, he will never meet with her again nor will he help her in Venezuela. He’s getting his oil from the Maduro regime, which is all he cares about. He believes she stole what is rightfully his, and now he’s staring at the medal like Gollum.

It’s like ICE stealing that kid’s phone and selling it. No responsibility, no law, just greedy violence. But on a massive scale. As though McKremlin consultants were explaining how to do it.
The main bank account holding revenue from the Venezuelan oil sales is located in Qatar.
“There is no basis in law for a president to set up an offshore account that he controls so that he can sell assets seized by the American military,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

Have you ever heard Trump protesting against Putin's massive terror bombings of Ukraine's civilian residential areas, hospitals, school and energy systems?
No, because Trump supports Putin's war of aggression against Ukraine.

Here’s the thing, when it finally ends, we will learn that the violence in MN was policy. People will talk about the orders they were given and somewhere there will be written records. There will be justice for all of this.
