“What Zelensky asked, I thought very understandably in the White House, was a simple question: How are you going to trust Vladimir Putin when he has sat down at the negotiating table before and never honored the agreement?” - Sen. Chris Murphy

Lemme get this straight… Donald Trump didn’t get a ceasefire deal between Ukraine and Russia. He clearly didn’t end the war. He didn’t get Zelenskyy to sign a minerals deal. He ended the peace talks and canceled a press conference. And MAGA thinks he’s a brilliant negotiator? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II. Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

World leaders are issuing statements, standing with Ukraine and Zelensky after that shameful display in the Oval Office. This isn’t the United States I grew up being proud of.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years. Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

Trump’s disgusting behavior in our Oval Office in the company of a genuine hero and defender of democracy like Volodymyr Zelensky may be the most disgraceful public behavior by any president in our history.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

You can’t make this stuff up. Trump supporters spent the past few years obsessing over an apparent sex trafficking cabal in charge of our country. And yet one of the first things Trump seems to have done, apparently, is push to get the Tates, charged with sex trafficking, released from Romania.

Trump and Musk claim they’re saving billions through DOGE’s mass purge of federal bureaucracy. Instead, the administration has spent $710 billion in its first month, nearly a billion more than Joe Biden.

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Acosta: When Trump was out there on the campaign trail, he said, ‘On day one, I’m going to start lowering prices in this country.’ That hasn’t happened. And what is he doing? He’s going to the Super Bowl. He’s going to the Daytona 500. It’s like he’s on the StubHub Rapid Rewards program.

At this point, Zelenskyy should not participate in any peace talks which involve the Trump administration He should demand that Europe lead the way-and guarantee Ukraine’s safety if a deal can be reached Clearly, the US is spouting Putin’s talking points and cannot be trusted to negotiate honestly

Trump is a Russian stooge. Putin may as well written this himself. And any Republican in Congress who said they support our allies before, but are silent today over this, are worthless.

That Trump is now calling Pres. Zelensky a “dictator” and it talked the U.S. into spending $350 billion (a lie) for a war Ukraine started (another disgusting lie) should remind you the White House occupant is mentally deranged and must be opposed at all times.

It looks like Trump is spending a third day golfing (at Doral today after 2 days in Palm Beach). I am just thinking about the random voter in 2016 who said he voted for Trump because he didn't spend all his time golfing like Obama did. Amazing how people see what they want to in Trump...

Zelenskiy communicated that he’d like Trump and his administration, which has ceded more and more to Russia every day, to “be more truthful.” He also said that Trump “lives in a disinformation space” and that said disinformation is coming straight from Russia.

America elected Trump Then he chose the feckless Marco Rubio as Secretary of State The incompetent Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense And Putin mouthpiece Tulsi Gabbard as DNI So it was only a matter of time before he started to lie about Zelenskyy and blame Ukraine for being invaded by Russia
