None of this is about non-interventionism or even isolationism. They don't want America to withdraw from the world stage. What they want is for the United States to switch sides on democracies vs. dictatorships. They want to be, and are, allies of the latter in the same way we have been the former.

This is the problem with the timidity and fake balance of BBC political coverage. A historic betrayal of Ukraine to Russia by Europe's former ally is boiled down to an utterly superficial row about a man's clothes www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The deputy speaker of Israel’s parliament and a leading member of Netanyahu’s party calling for the bombing of food stocks in Gaza just a few hours ago. You won’t see this mentioned by any European or American leaders, or by most western media.

As Donald Trump turns the United States into one of the closest allies Russia has worldwide, it's worth revisiting the news item below, which came out immediately after Trump won a surprising victory in November:

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

When Europe threw in its lot with America it always suspected one president might turn its back on the alliance. But we assumed the establishment—especially senators from the president's party—would hem a rogue president in. That's the surprise really. The total moral cowardice of GOP senators.

Still processing the fact that Zelensky asked Vance “Have you ever actually been to Ukraine?” and his response was that he’s watched and seen some videos.

The criticisms of Zelenskyy's attire are ironically enough virtually identical to criticisms that used to be levied at Yasser Arafat in the 1970s and 1980s- if only he would drop the military fatigues and the pistol and the keffiyeh, the Palestinians would be given their state and their respect.

It’s insane to think that the Trump administration was more welcoming this week to the Tate brothers than to the President of Ukraine.

I think Zelenskyy has suddenly gained a lot of popularity in the Arab world, while King Abdullah of Jordan has ended up as collateral damage from yesterday’s Oval Office argument.

Having watched back the fiasco at the white house today, it is clear that this was all planned to the point that a Russian reporter was in the oval office. The US is no longer an ally. That notion is dead.

The Trump administration is simply using this as cover. It is the ultimate betrayal of Ukraine by America.

With the Tates back in the news 'Andrew Tate’s house was raided by armed police in relation to allegations of human trafficking, trafficking of minors, sexual intercourse with a minor and money laundering. Is it time for parliament to question Nigel Farage over his relationship with Tate?'

Donald Trump Jr.: > I honestly can’t imagine that anyone in their right mind would be picking Ukraine as an ally when Russia is the other option, the US should have been sending weapons to Russia. If this family was in power in 1939, they would join Axis of Evil I am sure.
