If we team up with Russia I am going to Ukraine to fight against Putin!

jsbooth.bsky.social•10 days ago

And the switch happened so fast. Head spinning.

neptunethedog.bsky.social•10 days ago

It’s way worse than that. We are at the same moment we were in in WWII, when Hitler himself said of Russia, “kick the door in and the whole rotten house will fall down.” The difference this time is that we know it to be true. A little hardball from the US ends it. Something “pussy-Trump” cannot do.

This administration is a fkn disaster

Russia said in 1963 or so that they'd capture a political party. Putin realized that he could cozy up to the unhappy far right conservatives via Christianity.

grouchomanx.bsky.social•10 days ago

The only thing that makes sense out of this entire nightmare is that Trump and his allies are witting or unwitting agents of Russia.

Since Russia is seems to be the country leading white supremacy ideology , it’s only natural that they would want to align with them even more closely.

As a 70 year-old political junkie, this transition is the most mind boggling.

Haha. Hey cartoonists..."Now they want to spoon with it"

You spoon-fed them this one.

Yes, He is set to help Trump betray Ukraine, Trump still has his impeachment over Ukraine stuck in his craw, and an infinity for Putin.
It's a green light to China to invade Taiwan.
Trump wants to take Gaza, Greenland, the Panama Canal, and I'm not sure what the hell he's doing with Canada!

He's just letting Satan direct his actions.

cynthiastach.bsky.social•10 days ago

Trump’s a traitor, fraud, rapist, felon, liar, conman, people voted for to be in our White House including Christian’s. He’s letting an immigrant billionaire destroy our country because mad he was charged for crimes he committed,never held accountable for.Rich get away with crimes, not become Pres!

cynthiastach.bsky.social•10 days ago

Read Trump spoke to Putin, no agreement according to Pesov spokesman for Kremlin between Russia & Ukraine. Trump wants Ukraine’s uranium, so does Putin as used for nuclear warheads. Ukraine rich w/uranium. Why Trump wants Greenland, wants to mine uranium Grand Canyon National Monument 😡

cynthiastach.bsky.social•10 days ago

Grand Canyon National Monument has sacred grounds for 14 Tribal Nations. Trump has said that Indians born in U.S. have no birth rights in our country. ICE has entered Navajo reservation to detain at least 15 people. They’re telling people to carry ID’s. WTF!They were here first! Deport TRUMP & Musk

darrylricker.bsky.social•10 days ago

Follow the money, as they say. Both Trump and Musk have significant debt to Russia in their businesses. Very, very sad.

cynthiastach.bsky.social•10 days ago

Musk has Russian oligarchs sons investors in X. Second highest shareholder of X is Prince Alwaleed of Saudi Arabia.

This is somewhat reminiscent of what Senator Margaret Chase Smith spoke of in her deliverance of, Declaration of Conscience, on the Senate floor in 1950. Communism, Fascism & what she called, 'national suicide'. Pertained to both parties/McCarthyism.

United States of Russia.

And the Russians are ecstatic to have their girlfriend Tulsi now in place.
My anxiety and feeling unsafe in this country is very real.

fancypants1951.bsky.social•10 days ago

Tulsi is not to be trusted. She does what is best for Tulsi.

Blackmail comes to mind. That and weird ego trip resulting in treason.

mbnavarro.bsky.social•10 days ago

NATO should kick USA out of NATO for its own corruption. We are a corrupt, killing, and inhumane nation paying off, extorting, robbing, seizing, pillaging. Perhaps USAid was one thing we got right -- now USA has no redeeming value.

My mom was a Republican her whole life . . . until the last election before her death. Then, she voted Democrat.

madindetroit.bsky.social•10 days ago

We used to be great. We collapsed the U.S.S.R. & were the beacon of democracy/diplomacy. I was always proud of my country but now I’m just embarrassed. It’s not who we are, yet our respected reputation has been destroyed in 3 weeks. Ukraine deserves better. I hate knowing we let them down.

Forget Canada as the 51st state. Prepare for America as the 22nd Russian republic. We will be voluntary, so I’m not counting the three bogus ones in Ukraine.

ewg118.bsky.social•10 days ago

Poland, France, and a few others will have to make hard decisions about putting boots on the ground in Ukraine. Not only has American support ended, Trump is likely to remove sanctions on Russia, enabling them to rebuild

cynthiastach.bsky.social•10 days ago

U.S,UK,Russia signed Budapest Memorandum Security Agreement w/Ukraine in 1994 where Ukraine dismantled 1700 nuclear warheads gave to Russia. Ukraine was 3rd in world nuclear power.Putin broke w/war. U.S. Uk stood by agreement.Trump doesn’t care.Putin wants uranium in Ukraine, now Trump also.

Hopefully NATO will get big mad and include Ukraine sooner than they otherwise would have.
