And there it is. Putin’s lifelong dream. After years of relentless Russian propaganda, now fully embraced by the American president and the world’s richest oligarch, millions of Americans are convinced that this is a good plan because Europe is an enemy and Putin is our friend.

Australian newspaper "The Sun-Herald" opinion piece calls it out. American msm, take notes.

This is a once-a-generation moment for the security of Europe - PM Starmer said during the Summit. "Getting a good outcome for Ukraine is not just a matter of right or wrong; it’s vital for security of every nation here and many others too," PM Starmer added.

For anyone wishing to understand Trump and Putins intentions! A clear articulation of why Europe needs to step up! www.google.com/search?q=sir...

Selection of German headlines this morning: “It’s now the law of the jungle” “The former leading power of the West can no longer be relied upon.” “Now it's up to the Europeans” “The worst case is now the new normal” “The free world needs a new leader”

Great point from @philmoorhouse.bsky.social on his YouTube channel- Trump had to blow up the ‘peace’ talks because he’d been shooting his gob off about European peacekeepers in 🇺🇦 and his boss wasn’t keen on that. This was the only way to avoid that reality.

Dr Seuss in 1941 knew what was going on.

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.

What’s the opposite of a Nobel Peace Prize? I think we have a winner.

“JD Vance… wanted to have this row, wanted to show himself tough bullying Zelensky.” Journalist Gabriel Gatehouse says that the US had “a great hand” but its soft power in Europe is “gone”, adding: “All America has left is hard power.” #Newsnight

This weeks cover from @theneweuropean.bsky.social was spot on as always

Winston Churchill visiting the White House in 1942. Not wearing a suit. #SlavaUkraïni 🇺🇦

If you could find a way to generate electricity from Ronald Reagan spinning in his grave you'd be able to power the Eastern Seaboard right now.

🚨The European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas : “The free world needs a new leader” The United States is weaker and more isolated than ever.

GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office. ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

"We’re witnessing the self-sabotage of the United States" from @davidfrum.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

"I don't want advantage, I want peace." - Trump. Peace must not mean surrender by #Ukraine. There have been some low points in this war & this would have to be the political low-point. Invited to the White House, the Ukrainian president was treated abysmally. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

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.

Here’s a Russian policy expert explaining why Russia supports Trump: Because Trump will destroy America. This clip is worth rewatching, considering how much damage Russian asset Trump has already done in the first few weeks. ❤ and share so others see this too.

Junior Proposes U.S. Send Weapons To Russia Then Deletes Post. Wow: This Russia as the good guys theme has always mesmerized me. It is key to MAGA philosophy and since we have a dumbed down populace who know nothing of geopolitics and have only the vaguest clue of the dimensions of WWII, I suppose…

Since 2014,Russia has kidnapped tens of thousands of Ukrainian children.They were deported or forcibly displaced by the Russians⤵️ 📷Oleksandr Yakushchenko,taken to Russia from Kherson.He dreamed of returning home,but guardians wouldn’t give him his documents.Driven to despair, he committed suicide

💥 BREAKING: At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple. An anti-DEI proposal from the NCPPR received less than 1 percent of votes. Deere shareholders: DEI is in. Bigots are out

Nice to see so much media pickup on this story. Even the Mail themselves are covering my win against them…:)   Try googling their article though - I can’t see it anywhere… https://buff.ly/3QwkD6N

What she said.

In today’s Russian papers: ◾️“Russian army must be ready for possible military conflict with Nato in the next decade.” ◾️“First time since Cold War that America's changed its tone with Russia. It's one of Moscow’s biggest breakthroughs.” ◾️ Bread prices to rise. #ReadingRussia

This sums the vast majority of the UK’s thoughts on this weeks buffoonery from Shitler, President Musk and CPAC: www.instagram.com/reel/DGX6II4...

The US President's attempts to extort Ukraine for its natural resources, while abandoning its fate to Russia, is a return to the worst imperial politics of the past bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/t...

Thursday’s front page of the British Daily Star. Putin’s Poodle

Brilliant simple clear explainer by @sheridanflynn.bsky.social of the threat Russia poses to Britain youtu.be/M7O4Eh3Roe8?...

🇹🇷🇺🇦 Erdogan and Zelensky will meet in Turkey tomorrow to discuss the settlement of the war in Ukraine.

The gulf between the U.S. and Europe on the Ukraine war crystallized for Europeans at the Munich Security Conference. "Their worst nightmare has come true. They see that the Trump administration is going to bypass them and try to strong-arm Ukraine in negotiating a deal with Russia to end the war."

Some wise and apocalyptic words on Donald Trump: www.facebook.com/share/p/1DP9...

Just arrived in Paris for crucial talks. Europe’s security is at a turning point. Yes, it is about Ukraine—but it is also about us. We need an urgency mindset. We need a surge in defense. And we need both of them now.

◾️"Look at these photo&look at the people in Ukraine.No,Mrs. Weidel,we are not neutral,we are not standing aside.We are on the side of Ukraine, defending our political system," -Friedrich Merz, Chancellor candidate, in response to the leader of the far-right Alternative for Germany party,Alice Weidel

“Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany on Saturday accused Vice President JD Vance of unacceptably interfering in his country’s imminent elections on behalf of a party that has played down the atrocities committed by the Nazis 80 years ago.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/w...

When is Jimmy Vance's free speech and democracy tour due to arrive in Moscow and Beijing?
