CNN aired a montage of Trump’s past claims that the U.S. was on the cusp of a deal with Iran, with Anderson Cooper noting that today’s announcement marks the 39th time he’s made a similar claim.

@AlternatNews Hahahaha. What a joke. Ukraine shouldn’t believe them after the last time the US and Russia promised security guarantees. Also, Russia has repeatedly broken agreements with Ukraine.

[Bricktop_NAFO @Bricktop_NAFO]

Donald Trump just claimed again that the US donated 350 Billion dollars to Ukraine.

You are being lied to by your sitting President on the United States of America.

Let’s break this down with the facts rather than these random numbers Donnie is trying to sell you after finishing his nap.

Independent tracking by the Kiel Institute for the World Economy estimated that between January 24, 2022 and June 30, 2025, U.S committed aid to Ukraine amounted to about $134 billion, not $350 billion….it gets better.

Already a $166 Billion dollar difference than what Trump claims.

Please understand committed and allocated isn’t the same as what has actually been delivered.

56% ($74.9 billion USD) of all funds “allocated not supplied” were for weapons.

HOWEVER the $74.9 of weapons (Allocated and not necessarily all provided) were independently evaluated and subsequently massively overvalued by the US Government. The True cost of lethal aid was predicted to cost around $18.3 billion even by United States weapons pricing.

One reason: when equipment is drawn from existing U.S. inventories “drawdown”, the official accounting often uses replacement-cost valuations, rather than the original (or depreciated) cost.

To put it plainly, if you give Ukraine one air defense system, you account for the cost of a brand new air defense system to take its place not for the cost of the 45 year old system that was handed over.

Many of the weapons provided to Ukraine was soon to be destroyed by the US forces or decommissioned.

ALSO it’s important to take note as we all know the American arms industry massively overvalues the cost of all system due to its industry. America prices its systems at anything from 30-100% higher than the cost of European equivalents with the same capabilities. The true value of these weapons could have been anything from $5.49 billion-$18.3 Billion.

Even with a significantly lower number of this, Independent analysts suggested that a large share perhaps 60% or more of the nominal military-aid dollar amount may effectively stay within U.S. defense industry…..60%!

Out of aid provided $54 Billions dollars was Financial aid consisting of grants, loans, budget support.

Of the US $54.0 billion in U.S. financial-aid allocations for that period, about US $19.3 billion was provided as loans, while roughly US $29.7 billion was given as grants.

🚨🚨That means approximately 39–40% of the U.S. financial aid during that time was structured as loans or other repayable/concessional financing.🚨🚨

The US $3.4 Billion in Humanitarian aid.

Here is another kicker. After everything I have just said. According to United states press briefings: the U.S. had only delivered around 83% of promised ammunition, about 67% of pledged air-defence systems, and roughly 60% of committed bombs, artillery rounds, other munitions.

$5.49 billion-$18.3 Billion
$29.7 billion
$3.4 Billion

That $350 Billion is looking more like it was 38.59- 51.4 billion to me Donnie.

And it’s a funny number that.

An estimated $30–60 billion dollars was spent by Americans allies fighting alongside the US after 9/11. This included Ukraine.

We never once complained about this loss or the lives we lost.

Absolutely shameful.

BREAKING: THE END OF NATO AS WE KNEW IT

Tomorrow, December 3, NATO foreign ministers gather in Brussels.

America’s seat will be empty.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is skipping the summit. First time in over two decades a U.S. Secretary of State has refused to attend.

But here is what no one is telling you:

Today, December 2, Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff meets Vladimir Putin in Moscow.

Read that again.

The day before NATO convenes to discuss European security, America is in Moscow negotiating directly with Russia. Without Europe. Without consultation. Without permission.

Who is Washington sending to Brussels instead? Deputy Secretary Christopher Landau. The same official who wrote “NATO is still a solution in search of a problem” before deleting the post.

The message could not be clearer.

Since 1949, NATO operated on one principle: collective decision-making. Thirty-two nations, one voice.

That architecture died this week.

The new hierarchy:

Track One: Washington and Moscow decide.
Track Two: Washington informs Kyiv.
Track Three: Europe learns what was agreed.

European diplomats are already complaining they have been “cut out” of Ukraine negotiations. The leaked 28-point peace plan was drafted by American and Russian negotiators. Brussels was not consulted.

America funds approximately 70% of NATO’s operational capacity. He who pays, dictates.

What happens next will define the next fifty years of global order.

Either Europe accepts its new role as a funding mechanism for American-designed security arrangements.

Or the Atlantic fractures.

There is no third option.

The post-1945 world order is being rewritten.

Not in Brussels.

In Moscow.

While NATO ministers wait in an empty room.

BREAKING: Ukraine hit two oil tankers of Russia’s shadow fleet in the Black Sea with marine drones.

A Ukrainian security source told CNN that both tankers sustained critical damage and were effectively taken out of service. “This will deal a significant blow to the transportation of Russian oil”

[Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran]

Wow, the leaked call logs show both that:

-Witkoff committed treason by advising Russia how to get their way by out maneuvering president Trump.

AND

-The “peace proposal” was authored and sent by the Russians meaning Vance, Rubio and Witkoff have all lied about its origin!

[Christopher Bayer @CBayerZ28]

Terrible deal for Ukraine. How is it that Russia gets no punishments for invading Ukraine through this deal?

Anonymous has hacked all Kremlin servers.

Anonymous is applying its own digital sanctions on Russia. We demand they surrender and fully leave all Ukrainian territory. #OpRussia

Poland slaps russia in the face. WOW.

We know you don't care about international law and are incapable of living in peace with your neighbors. Your insane nationalism is a lust for domination that will not abate until you realize that the era of empires is over and yours cannot be restored," Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski told the russian representative at a UN Security Council meeting.

"And every drone strike by the heroes of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, may God bless them, brings that day closer.

No one supports your attempts to conquer Ukraine, and we will not be intimidated. If another missile or other object, intentionally or accidentally, flies into our space and is shot down, and the debris falls on NATO territory, don't come here to complain. You've been warned."

[COSSACKGUNDI @cossackgundi]

Russia tortured me, killed my friends, and broke me in captivity. But I rejoined the military last April under a foreigner contract and three years on I’m signing my first contract as a Ukrainian citizen. Many of my brothers who survived captivity also returned to service. Our therapy? Watching Russians get hunted by drones.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]
