Trump's plan for ending Russia's war reportedly requires Ukraine to:
Give up vast parts of its territory, including areas Russia has failed to capture after years of war.
Cut its military in half.
Stop receiving U.S. lethal aid.
All in exchange for a Putin promise that Russia won't invade again.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.
