Hey did you know that this is going to probably happen in a lot of smaller places in the country in the next few years? Because buddy let me tell you, things are bad and the current government ditched any plans to change that.

If Z had given into Trump and signed over mineral rights, would Trump not have sold Ukraine out to Putin? Remember, a key part of the Art of the Deal is reneging.

Europe provides about as much direct aid to Ukraine as the United States. European loans to Ukraine are backed by income from frozen Russian assets, not Ukraine. isw.pub/UkraineFacts...
