Trump made it clear: "We're talking to Russia. We'd like him to stop. I don't like the bombing." As the US pushes for peace, Putin responds with strikes on Zelensky's hometown — and shows what he truly fears: diplomacy, not sanctions.

As I've warned all along: Putin is a bandit. When talking to bandits, you must always show the club behind your back. Because if you don't, they think you have none. 🧵Read on to understand how he thinks

I’m sorry but everyone should be appalled at CNN basically inviting Joseph Goebbels over for “polite conversation.” This isn’t journalism, it’s murder theatre. And free propaganda for Russia.

"We don’t want your Nazi cars / take a one-way trip to Mars" is a pretty good chant

👀🇺🇸 A day after a federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s efforts to cut off all federal funds to Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, the president’s senior adviser at the agency that oversees the broadcaster withdrew the cancellation of the network’s grants.

I suspect the reason why senior national security figures’ open Venmo lists isn’t resonating internationally as much as the Signal debacle is because nobody from countries with a functional banking system will understand what a Venmo list is or why you might need one. www.wired.com/story/michae...

Trump has no concept of the nation or of its security. This is not an insult to his intelligence. These are just not cognitive categories for him. He can’t care about national security because it’s not a thing in his world.

The secret chat doesn't exist, but if it did, then there was nothing classified on it, but you can't see the unclassified texts, but it was fine because this was a highly secure method of communication that also a random journalist managed to hack into and also this is a hoax just like RUSSIA

BREAKING: Trump is having a full-blown meltdown on Truth Social—this time over a painting of him displayed at the Colorado State Capitol. He’s lashing out at the governor, claiming the portrait is “distorted.” It’d be a real shame if everyone saw it… and shared it.

US ‘deletes evidence’ of Russia’s kidnap of thousands of Ukrainian children Researchers at Yale University had been compiling database of alleged Russian war crimes, including abduction of up to 35,000 children 😡😡😡 www.independent.co.uk/news/world/e...

Highlights from the Kremlin's lengthy readout of the Putin-Trump phone call: kremlin.ru/events/presi... 1. Starts by noting agreement to work out a stable and lasting peace with the US that addresses "the origins of the crisis, Russia's legal security interests." (read: a sovereign Ukraine)

www.nytimes.com/2025/03/18/o...

Utterly predictably, Putin rejects the unconditional ceasefire offered by Ukraine, sends Trump off on the errands of making the Russian invasion easier and denying Ukrainian sovereignty, while Trump claims he has accomplished something.

And this is the Russian readout, which is very different from that of the incompetent White House. There were *very good reasons* why we Europeans had stopped talking with Moscow. Idiot Trump disregards our superior insights because he's corrupt, stupid, and pro-Russian all at once.

"Trump’s problem is that he’s doing a poor job of explaining his plan. I think his problem is that he’s offering fake answers to fake problems, and the public — unlike, apparently, the Washington Post — isn’t buying it."

So: Russia flatly rejected one Trump envoy (Kellogg), made the next one (Witkoff) wait for eight hours, rejected the ceasefire, and instructed Trump that his job is to give Russia what it wants. That’s what Trump means by "respect" I guess.

Understand that this El Salvador gulag deportation was done partly in order to make the fascist video that the president now transmits, with his fascist message. The cameras are all set up in advance.

One of the biggest errors made the last 100 years was to assume the Cold War was over when the USSR was dissolved. The Cold War was never with the USSR, it was always with Russia. The same Russia that has been a threat to peace and prosperity in Europe for 500 years.

It being anniversary of My Lai massacre, here's our "Bucha massacre - We can do it again" t shirt which shows how we are same as imperialists. "We didn't do it but we will do it again".

About 1/6 of the total population of Serbia protested government malfeasance today. In the US that would be more than fifty million people.

Astute observation from @kadriliik.bsky.social ecfr.eu/article/puti...

I’m interested in talking to anyone who may have been at Elon Musk’s birthday party in June 2017. Hit me up on Signal at davetroy.69. Thanks.

The delegations of Ukraine and the USA in Saudi Arabia agreed upon to resume weapon‘s delivery and intelligence sharing. Full statement:

What Really Happened With the DDoS Attacks That Took Down X.

Elon Musk’s claim the X DDoS is from “IP addresses originating in the Ukraine area” is missing a key fact - it was actually IPs from worldwide, not just Ukraine. It’s a Mirai variant botnet, made of compromised cameras. They specifically targeted a Twitter ASN which had origin servers not behind CF

Note the first sentence. Russia's idea of peace is Ukrainian surrender. Russia rejects a ceasefire every single day. Do NOT fall for the gaslighting coming from the Trump admin that Zelensky and Ukraine reject peace and compromise. Russia rejects peace and compromise. For over a decade already.

the markets have spoken and they're woke and gay

“You are a traitor.” An absurd and insulting thing to say to anyone who posts what Senator Kelly did. And even more insulting since he served as a U.S. Navy captain and a NASA astronaut. Kelly was a combat pilot and flew 39 combat missions during Operation Desert Storm in the Gulf War.

The Trump-Putin Pact already exists, and we should act accordingly. There are some things we will never change with nice words or smart clothing. If you are worried about those things, you should understand where Trump's tactics come from. From Russia. A thread. 🧵1/14

1-2 The structural weaknesses of America's particular type of democracy have been clear for a long time: - an excessively presidential system in general; - inappropriate presidential powers, esp. Cabinet nominations, Supreme Court nominations, and pardons; (Parliamentary democracy is superior)

JD Vance claimed on X that “Slava Ukraini” protesters followed him & shouted at his daughter. Guess he didn’t realize it was caught on camera. No one yelled at his kid, and they didn’t follow them. Vance & Musk need to quit using children as shields. The public isn’t backing down—we want answers.

Georgia. The hundredth (!!!) day of protests. Without a break. Without excuses. When democracy is breaking down all over the world. This is called perseverance and resilience. ❤️

OTD in 1944 the Red Air Force carpet bombed Tallinn, destroying 20,000 homes & killing 757 people. Imagine, in 21st century, Russia being run by a madman capable of that.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?

‘They brought it on themselves’: a new low in US-Ukraine relations

Where is the outrage in America about this shameful betrayal by Trump? Where are the Senators and Members of Congress who cheered Zelensky when he addressed them, but are now too afraid of Trump to say a word in defence of Ukraine?

Tonight Ukraine will continue to prove it does not want peace by being bombed.

1. We, Ukrainians, want to live. 2. We want to live in our sovereign independent state. Not russia. 3. We want to have our cultural identity and language. Not russian. 4. We want to decide our own future. And russia has no legal or moral right to deny us any of this. #Ukraine️ #UkrainianView

Around half of the €200 million funds for the Tallinn Mechanism — a key effort by the U.S., EU and NATO to provide cyber support to Ukraine — have evaporated after the US pulled its funding, Estonia’s cyber ambassador told me today. More in NatSecDaily: www.politico.com/newsletters/...

Policies of wanton cruelty. There is an element of sadism to all this.

Guess losing $150 billion got under the old boy's skin. No surprise, he's responding by throwing around tired old conspiracy theories meant to intimidate and discredit us. Guess we better make #teslatakedown so big no one can hear him over our noise! And lol he's signing his tweets now?
