“Trump replied,”stopping the war,” suggesting that not “taking the whole country” is a “pretty big concession.” Putin hasn’t taken #Ukraine because he can’t. Because of Ukrainian courage & resilience. To suggest this is a Russian concession is ludicrous & morally corrupt. www.cnn.com/2025/04/24/p...

It was only a question of time for something like this to happen. I wouldn’t be surprised, when many tariffed countries would do nothing, but to wait until the internal dynamics and the CEOs of the falling stock market companies will take this US government apart.

OTD in 2022 we attacked a railway station full of civilians at Kramatorsk killing 60+. We claimed we didn't have the missile that did it cos the hard part about doing propaganda is that the past changes so quickly you have no idea what will happen yesterday.

From the nation that brought us the Marshall Plan, we now have this proposal for the “Trump Plan” for #Ukraine. Where the Marshall Plan embraced enlightened self-interest by America, the Trump plan is predatory, and basically an extortion bid against the people of Ukraine. 1/7

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Anniversary of invasion of Iraq reminds us of Chomsky's wise words about how "Russia is fighting far more humanely in Ukraine than US did in Iraq". Which is why 20,000 kids were stolen & sent to Texas, parts declared 51st state after legit vote & minimal civilian deaths.

“Trump made clear his conversation with Putin would be focused on what Russia would retain in any cease-fire with Ukraine. He will, in essence, be negotiating over how large a reward Russia will receive for its 11 years of open aggression against Ukraine.” www.nytimes.com/2025/03/17/u...

Elon Musk called a U.S. senator from Arizona—a Navy veteran—a "traitor" for supporting Ukraine. The senator fired back: "Traitor? Elon, if you don’t understand that defending freedom is a core principle of what makes America great and keeps us safe, maybe you should leave it to those who do."

That a wartime president who courageously remained in his country despite being urged to leave, and has united and led his country since, is lectured on 'peace' and 'advantage' by a former military photographer and a draft dodger is a massive irony.
