I donā€™t ever want to hear ā€œthank you for your serviceā€ from that draft-dodging coward again. We already lost 20 inpatient beds for mental health and detox at my local VA. The real-world impacts of this on our nationā€™s heroes cannot be understated. apnews.com/article/vete...

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau: "Today, the United States launched a trade war against Canada - their closest partner and ally, their closest friend. At the same time, they're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin - a lying murderous dictator. Make that makes sense."

Being able to drop a quarterly US GDP prediction by 5.1% from +2.3% to -2.8% in a single week is one of the most impressive economic developments in the history of the world.

Most money for US aid to Ukraine went to US manufacturers. It is literally American industry, and part of the funding was for expanding US industrial capacity. It's next level lying. Lies wrapped in lies, stacked in a pile of BS. Reality inverting lies. Piss-on-my-leg-and-tell-me-it's-raining lying.

Trump is surrendering to Russia in the cyber realm. He has ordered CISA "not to follow or report on Russian threats". Conceivably, one can negotiate a truce in antagonistic cyber activities. But asking the professionals to NOT EVEN LOOK suggests treason. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

OTD in 2022 Russian MOD announced that all Russian troops near Ukraine were returning home. And seeing as we weren't lying, you can believe us in negotiations now. We did the exact same thing right before invading Georgia.

OTD in 1921 Soviet invasion of Georgia began. Less than a year before we signed a treaty with them promising we'd never invade. Lying & then invading is a tradition I maintain to this day.

Trump says he trusts Putin and refuses to criticize him in any way shape or form but absurdly blames Biden for Putin's invasion of Ukraine

šŸ˜µā€šŸ’« Trump said he plans to talk to Putin frequently by phone, and the first meeting in Saudi Arabia could be followed by another. ā—ļøTrump believes that a ceasefire in Ukraine is possible "in the not too distant future," and that new elections should be held in the country "at some point."
