So far in the last 24 hours, Russia's gotten: - a sympathetic ear/voice installed as DNI - the release of a crime boss - Hegseth ceding Crimea to them - Trump offering a WH visit - The US acting as middleman rather than Ukraine ally

Make the distinction between Russia (the country) & the Putin mob. Also make the distinction between the USA & the Trump mob. Then the growing power of the transnational crime networks are made clearer.

And there’s more to come! The end of NATO, the restoration of the USSR (geographically), and the replacement of Japan with the Philippines as trusted ally, who will then be sold out to China. So much winning for Putin! Even a year ago, I’d have bet against him, but by god, he pulled it off.

With all due respect, Ukraine is doing pretty well fighting a drone war and Russia can't afford to occupy Ukraine much longer as their economy is starting to implode. I don't think Crimea is Hegsbreath's to cede.

What we're seeing now is the digital equivalent of the burning of the Reichstag. Trump intends to create mass chaos & then declare martial law. He's an inept sociopath & must rely on what has worked well in the past. In this case, that means reading from Hitler's script. I wish this were hyperbole.

The documentary The Family went a long way towards explaining this. Evangelicals thought they could christianise Russia, but instead were corrupted, they saw Russia being neo-fascist and with bigotry as official policy and thought "what good christians" and through the church corrupted the GOP

Every US Senator who voted today to confirm Russian agent Tulsi Gabbard betrayed their oaths, betrayed our nation - betrayed all Americans. McConnell betrayed our nation when he TWICE failed to convict Putin's guy Trump. McConnell's vote against Tulsi today doesn't change that. Tulsi is his legacy.

My heart goes out to the Ukrainian People who have fought so hard to hold on to their country and democracy for the last 3 years. Bombed in their homes schools hospitals and still they fight. Their bravery is extraordinary. Slava Ukraine. 🇺🇦🇺🇦💙💙

Putin called Donald "clever" ... in 2016. Even he must be amazed at how useful the idiot has been. Which makes me wonder what would happen if some Democrat tried the same. Call Donald smart and then propose universal healthcare 🤔

In case others haven't mentioned it, Trump's suspension of the enforcement of the FCPA is also pretty good for the beneficiaries of corruption in Russia (that happened on Monday but it was in yesterday's news)

He’s stopped enforcing sanctions violations. He’s stopped monitoring and dealing with the shadow fleet. Ukraine is getting shafted. And now he also wants their minerals??? Fuck. If I was Z I’d say fuck all the way off.

Philip we appreciate this but you’re really soft-pedaling what happened here - Gabbard is a traitor - Hegseth too - Ukraine is about to be sold down the river (at best!) - the lawlessness is accelerating

Do you think they would be pulling this crap if SCOTUS hadn't decided that he could commit crimes while president? They gave him carte blanche. He wants to own America like he wants to own Gaza.

For all the people insisting that there are Republicans, and something different called ‘MAGA Republicans, should all get their flowers and take their bow. Congratulations, so clever, and so smart, and so brilliantly removing all responsibility from 54% of White people for this Greek tragedy.

Funny. Trump is the peacemaker. You’d prefer WW3 to defeat Russia, we know. That’s why 77 million Americans rejected the Democratic Party and reelected Donald Trump. Stay on the wrong side of history.

Ta-da! Philip, why was is never pinned down that the big boost in NRA financial support back in 2015 started out as rubles? Was the evidence really not there?

Trump will be happy with whatever makes Putin happy. Pushback will give him an excuse to pull the US out of NATO. Military support for Ukraine will be available for purchase from the US. Same as in Gaza. Trump sees human catastrophe as a money making opportunity.

And the US will have NO ALLIES because of Trump. So when troops from China and Russia invade the US, the US will be alone. Musk will have made sure that China/Russia can control all US military software. Mainstream media as a whole in the US is right-wing garbage.

Imbecile Republican traitor Ratcliffe destroying the CIA helps Russia and China. The US is fucked bigtime. Destruction of the FBI also helps China and Russia. Useless stupid whites are the biggest group that voted for Trump.

I can remember when the useless right-wingers at the editorial page of The Wall Street Journal complained that Biden was soft on Russia. Murdoch and his evil underlings love the traitor, Trump.

There is no free press in China or Russia. When China and Russia conquer the USA, most of the media in the USA that clearly support Republicans will happily support the conquerors of the US (Owners of Wapo, NYT and LA Times. Fox/NY Post will be official propagandists for China/Russia).

NYT in 2016 basically: "Trump has no connections to Russia". The guy Will Lewis deleted millions of emails for, is married to the ex-wife of a Putin oligarch. Every person who supports Trump is a traitor/idiot. Russia and China are allies (helping Russia helps China). www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

msnbc.comH.R. McMaster struggled to understand ‘Putin’s hold on Trump’Donald Trump was so weak toward Russia that former national security adviser H.R. McMaster told his wife, "I cannot understand Putin’s hold on Trump.”

Zelensky is not an idiot. He saw this coming, and so did all of Ukraine. The EU is arming Kiev, and the battlefield innovations the tech industry (🇺🇦 ) has wrought will continue to make this 'peace' deal impossible. Fuck Putin. Fuck Trump. Fuck Hegseth. FUCK ELON! SLAVA UKRAINA.

I hope this is all true. I also hope that when Benedict Trump abandons Ukraine and/or actively helps Putin on the battlefield, that Zelensky takes great pride in telling the world his true opinion of Benedict Trump.
