I think they expected that they’d just roll over and take it like their domestic opponents do.

Trump take Colonel-Captain-Admiral-General Tinpot declaring himself president king for life and building a golden naked statue of himself, and isn’t that the biggest crime of all?

Infantry has never been more vital. A single drone operator can control between 1-20 small drones and can task them for recon, strike and counter-drone missions that allows an infantry squad more situational awareness, firepower, and flexibility than they’ve had in any previous era of warfare.

The answer to both those questions is no. The NYT has been doing this shit since its inception. It covered the Nazis and even the Holocaust in the same passive voice both-sides obscuration that it is currently engaged in. Bootlicking authoritarians is in the NYT’s DNA. They will never change.

2). Ukraine has only gotten around $20b in direct financial support from the US. This is just colonialism, an extractive demand backed up by a threat. You should recognize it for what it is.

1). That isn’t the agreement Trump put in front of Zelensky. The US already had first dibs on mineral extraction contracts when the war is over but they’d still have to pay for them. Trump wants 500 billion in minerals as payment FOR already sent weapons, which is far less than what was sent.
