Zelensky has thanked the United States on numerous occasions since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in February 2022 – expressing gratitude to Trump and Biden, to members of Congress from both parties, to US defense companies and their employees, and to the American people.

One of the most disgusting displays of a pre-planned ambush on an invaded nation trying to defend itself. After trying to extort $500 billion of its resources no less. JD Vance just might be one of the most despicable minions the world has seen. And when are you going to grow a fucking spine Rubio?

Another environmental catastrophe caused by Russians east of Crimea, after one of their decaying oil tankers broke apart on high seas 2 days ago, 35km of pristine coastline has been contaminated in true Russian style. And these tankers are now all over the world.

Easily the best description of him I’ve ever read.

People with homes are so rarely cold at night that I just don’t think homes are necessary anymore.

It makes me so angry that this brilliant exceptionally qualified woman could’ve been our next President yet many people chose a disgusting piece of shit criminal instead.

I didn’t leave X because people there had different opinions and ideologies, I left because it stopped being fun. I get on social media to chat with people who think thinking is fun. X stopped being a place where that was true.
