GeoConfirmed UKR - Misinformation by President Trump.
While we typically refrain from political commentary, President Donald Trump's recent statement regarding the war in Ukraine is so egregious that we feel compelled to respond.
Several claims made by President Trump have already been debunked. We've included responses from Grok AI for each claim, demonstrating that even Grok refutes the misinformation spread by the president.
In this thread, we will provide geolocated footage as a reminder to everyone that Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, marking the beginning of this war.
1)
The United States has not spent $350 billion on this war, nor has it outspent Europe by $200 billion. In fact, European contributions have surpassed those of the US. Moreover, a significant portion of the American military aid (around 90% !) is spend in the US, reinvesting in the US economy.

President Zelensky did not claim that half the American money sent to Ukraine is "missing". He stated that half of the promised funds had not been received, which is a crucial distinction.

Ukrainian constitution prohibits elections during wartime, a measure designed to protect the democratic process from foreign interference, particularly given Russia's known capabilities in this area...

President Zelensky is not a dictator, as evidenced by Ukraine's constitutional framework and his commitment to holding elections once hostilities cease. In contrast, it's worth noting that President Putin consistently wins elections in Russia with implausibly high percentages of votes, with opposition that 'falls out of windows", is poisened or jailed, raising questions about the true nature of Russia's electoral process.

President Zelensky has a approval rate above 50% and not 4%. 4% is Russian disinformation.

There was no NATO expansion to the East, as NATO itself cannot expand. Instead, democratic countries independently decide whether they want to become members of the alliance. The process of joining NATO is voluntary and involves multiple steps, including meeting specific requirements and completing a formal application process.
The fact that many of Russia's former neighbors have chosen to seek NATO membership speaks volumes about their perception of Russia and their desire for collective security.
The decision of these nations to pursue NATO membership reflects their sovereign right to determine their own foreign policy and security arrangements. It also indicates a preference for the stability and security guarantees that NATO membership offers, rather than remaining under Russian influence.
Regarding the famous 'promise':
Article 103 of the UN Charter establishes a clear hierarchy in international law. It states that obligations under the UN Charter prevail over obligations under any other international agreement in case of conflict. This supremacy extends beyond just treaties, as it is generally understood to also apply to customary international law.
The hierarchy can be summarized as follows:
1) UN Charter obligations
2) Other treaties and customary international law
3) Non-treaty international texts
4) Political promises or commitments
5) Historical claims
Russia's invasion of Ukraine clearly violates fundamental principles of the UN Charter, including the prohibition on the use of force against the territorial integrity of another state. Any attempts to justify this action based on lower-ranking considerations like political promises or historical claims are legally irrelevant.

Who initiated this nearly three-year-long war? RUSSIA.
As a platform that has analyzed over 50,000 frames/videos related to the conflict, we will remind the president ,with geolocated footage, who started this war: RUSSIA.
Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, despite repeatedly denying any plans for invasion in the preceding days.

I was electrocuted, beaten, stabbed in the leg and starved after being captured while defending my home and family in Mariupol.
We held back the Putin invasion for several weeks while Russia slaughtered over 25,000 predominantly Russian speaking Ukrainians including women and children.
TRUMP IS MAD OR OWNED.
@NOELreports Key think missing from that headline is it's not the $47 that's the issue, it's the $1M to a random subscriber that has the potential of it being considered an illegal lottery.
@GloOouD@elonmusk They are skirting the line by having people sign a petition. What I think is more interesting is I'm pretty sure this would be considered an illegal lottery.
@RyanMcbeth@JustinRYoung Ryan, last night during the debate I started seeing widespread use of the term "3 on 1" in just about every comment thread on here. Looking at many of the accounts they were created post Feb 2022. Curious where this started and if it was a bot farm.

Dude makes 9 pounds a week, been in country for 4 months, he pushed a police officer in the chest in his drunken state believing her to not be a real officer. And she got hit by his coat when he ran.

Mailen assaulted a police officer, incited violence among the mob toward the building, incited violence among the mob toward the police, and resisted arrest.
They might look it, but these two are not best friends. Queen, the one in the back is the queen of the chickens, and brownie is the lowest on the pecking order. Queen just couldn't let Brownie lay in peace.
Ever since @DoorDash announced that they were going to put a warning up if people didn't include a tip, I started getting more garbage like this. It's like people didn't know they could not tip, but because of all the buzz now they know. Look at this order, huge bag and no tip.
