At least 100 Russian special forces were killed in a 1.4m diameter gas pipeline on the outskirts of Sudzha, Kursk Oblast they attempted to flank Ukraine defenders. This is the biggest special forces catastrophe since August 6, 2011 when the US lost 15 Navy seals in a helicopter crash.

I actually feel sorry for the fake reporter who asked Zelensky about a suit. When he isn’t sucking Trump’s dick, he has to suck Marjorie Taylor Greene’s.

Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone.

The idea that JD Vance—who has never been to Ukaine and chalks up his knowledge to shit he read on the internet—believes he knows more about the situation in Ukraine than the man who has led it for the past 5.5 years is a perfect encapsulation of the havoc this administration is wreaking worldwide

Says it all.

There were certainly signs

A hero and a coward are meeting in the Oval Office today. And when the meeting is over, the hero will return home to Ukraine.

Russia invaded Ukraine. This is Putin’s war. If Trump won’t say it, the Senate damn well should. And we will have the chance tonight.

Trump is surrendering America. Trump is the opposite of strong. He is a tiny, weak, small, scared, trembling, sissy, husk of a man. There is nothing manly about his fat, sweaty, smelly, gross, makeup'ed self An absolute joke

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

From 1945 to 1991, the United States led a coalition of freedom-loving allies to contain and then to liberate the Soviet Empire. The result has been an unprecedented era of peace, prosperity, and liberty. The long peace is on the verge of ending.

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

📊 57% of Ukrainians trust Zelensky as of February 2025, according to KMIS. Trust has grown since December 2024 when it was 52%. Meanwhile, 37% do not trust him, with a +20% trust-to-distrust balance. www.kiis.com.ua?lang=ukr&cat...

Math is hard

Let's get this straight. Trump took credit for stock market and job gains under Biden— But inflation during his presidency? Not his fault. Got it.

🇬🇧🇺🇦 UK considers patrolling Ukrainian airspace after war ends, — The Times

US Senator Roger Wicker, head of the US Senate Committee on Armed Services, commented on the talks with Putin: "No, Putin cannot be trusted. Putin is a war criminal and should be in jail for the rest of his life, if not executed."

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

As expected, Rubio got rolled, but it was cooked into the talks given that Trump wants a deal. The Russians used oil fields as a lure, but when Exxon left Russia in 2022, it was generating ~2% of its global production there. In reality, Russia has very little to offer besides not causing trouble.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed a Russian 50P6E missile launcher in occupied Donetsk, part of the $135 million S-350 air defense system. One S-350 system consisting of just 4 vehicles - launcher, reloader, radar, and command is 1/10th of Estonia's 2024 $1.4 billion military budget.

Sir Keir Starmer says UK "ready and willing" to put troops on the ground in Ukraine to help guarantee its security as part of a peace deal
