OK, so Rubio announced Ukraine signed a cease fire agreement, and that now the ball is in Russia’s court. This is Putin’s response. So maybe Trump & Vance can finally admit that Ukraine wants peace and Putin wants war? Of course they won’t. The question is why?

"DOGE’s claims are often either mathematically impossible, or, like the $50m 'condoms for Gaza' claim, simply false. This allows the administration to take a strategically ambiguous stance in hopes of shielding DOGE from judicial interference. But that strategy is failing." -- @lizdye.bsky.social
