“Humanitarian” russians hit a university, a medical facility, and a bridge in Kyiv. One person was killed and 14 were injured. Most of those injured are students. The attack was sponsored by Trump and his supporters.

Different times, same ignorance. Arm Ukraine and prolong the war! Why not peace with Putin? Putin has not attacked us, why attack Putin? People who are making these statements today are the same people who would be welcoming Hitler during the WW2.

Trump received a made up "Man of the Century Award" during a Republican campaign rally in Iowa. The award was invented by Joe Mitchell, a Republican congressional candidate. Mitchell made up the awarded and introduced the recognition himself.

The pain russians have inflicted on Ukrainians will be felt for generations. The evil they have unleashed will never be forgotten. The crimes they have committed will be punished.

Trump’s special envoy, Witkoff, called Putin a “humanitarian.” “You talk so much about my president, President Trump, being a humanitarian. You are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that, I commend you, and I thank you again.”

Usually, when we think of Ukrainian heroes, we think of the brave soldiers at the frontline. And it is absolutely true - they are true heroes. But today, I want to give tribute to the unsung heroes of Ukraine - women who work at the gas stations near the front. Read the full story on my Substack

Wow, the US truly has the most incompetent president in history. Just listening to how clueless this man is, it’s no wonder we have been humiliated in Iran. I am honestly shocked at the basic level of ignorance. And this is the man who is in charge of the US Army.

What russia is doing today in Ukraine is called terrorism. They cannot fight the war, they are loosing on the battleground. So, instead, they are terrorizing civilians, they are killing children, destroying critical infrastructure.

Russia kills hundreds of civilians and children in Ukraine: Musk - fine, no problem. Ukraine destroys a couple russian bot farms: Musk - “Zelensky has gone too far.”

Unfortunately, many Americans will vote for the russian party this upcoming elections. Of course, MAGA will try to convince them that they are not. But at this point, it fairly obvious that MAGA stands for the Moscow Agent Governing America.

Massive Ukrainian attack on St. Petersburg. For years, russia has systematically attacked Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, oil facilities, and civilian infrastructure, trying to plunge Ukrainian cities into darkness. Now, the war is increasingly moving into russia.

Trump signed an executive order to exempt russia from the new sanctions legislation that Congress passed last month. When people were celebrating the passage of the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act, I made exactly this prediction.

Have we ever had a more uneducated and ignorant president in the US history? Trump: “Crimea is the most valuable part of Ukraine. It is surrounded by the ocean on four sides.”

How can Trump just lie on national TV without anyone even trying to correct him? What kind of journalism is that? Trump said, “We are running low on ammunition not because of my war on Iran, but because Biden gave massive amounts of Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine.”

We, evangelicals, will be held responsible for the evil we have unleashed on Ukraine. We have blessed an evil man. A man who has sided with a modern day Hitler who is committing genocide against Ukrainian people.

“Ukraine is Europe’s line of defense. If we allow Ukraine to be defeated, we will open the door to a Russian invasion of other parts of Europe.” - Mette Frederiksen, Danish Prime Minister

I hate making predictions, but I believe things will only get worse for Ukraine when it comes to its relationship with the United States. Trump’s deal with Putin on russian diesel fuel is just a testing ground for what comes next. He is testing how far he can go.

economicsofpower.substack.comTrump’s diesel deal with Putin is just the beginning of great betrayal.I hate making predictions, but I believe things will only get worse for Ukraine when it comes to its relationship with the United States.

Trump: “I won’t call Vladimir Putin a “dictator” because I need to make deals with him. I’ve always been a very good deal maker. I became very rich because of deals. So I don’t go around mocking people.” This is the man who constantly calls people names and mocks them.

“We appreciate President Trump's involvement in trying to end the Russia-Ukraine war, but in Poland we believe that it will bear fruit if you put pressure on the aggressor and not on the victim of aggression.” Radoslaw Sikorski, Polish Foreign Affairs Minister
