History shows why #Putin's #Russia is trying to annihilate #Ukraine with Nazi-like fervor. It's fascist, & self-proclaimed Russian anti-fascism has been nothing but a hegemonistic pretext since WWII. https://t.co/Adnf2Ft6fg

Bullying and yelling at a foreign leader and guest in the White House is not a sign of strength. #TrumpIsARussianAsset #istandwithukraine #presidentzelenskyisahero

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@LindseyGrahamSC "Yelling across the room at your guest is not a show of strength." Just a big ambush to create a public pretext for Trump's long-planned to pivot to Russia.

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@RapidResponse47 @LindseyGrahamSC Too bad McCain is not here to remind you of what a statesman president instead of an aggrieved narcissistic bully behaves like. #TrumpIsARussianAsset

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@LindseyGrahamSC @realDonaldTrump @JDVance Are you nuts? #Trump and #Vance abused their power & English fluency to disrespect, hector & berate a heroic president literally under fire from Russia, for all kinds of nutty #MAGA conspiracy theories. This was a planned #TrumpAmbushofZelensky

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

Anybody who pretends to want peace more than Zelensky and Ukraine is lying about the nature of war and of a just peace. #Trump has never understood or valued the sacrifice of citizen soldiers for their family, homes, and country.

I am so ashamed of #Trump and #Vance's attack on #Zelensky today. No visiting foreign leader deserves to be attacked and talked over like that. And Trump's litany of stupid, narcissistic old lies and grievances.

@davidaxelrod GOP: Government of Putin.

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@davidaxelrod I am outraged and ashamed at what very well might have been a deliberate ambush by #Trump and #Vance, in attempt to create a pretext for what they have always planned to do, anyway, rollover for #Putin.

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@TrumpWarRoom @JDVance Nobody wants peace more than the people of Ukraine. But the leader of a country with 100,000 innocent dead can't be anyone's lickspittle, even if that's what you have learned to be, tag-teaming Zelensky like that.

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@JDVance Vance, so shameful the way you acted as Trump's attack dog, tag-teaming a foreign leader today who was struggling to stand up for himself and his country and the truth, in a foreign language, no less. #VanceBully

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@WhiteHouse You disrespected the American people and our history by bullying and hectoring a foreign leader who was our guest in the Oval Office. I guess you want Zelensky and Ukraine to lick your spit. What a shameful spectacle!

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@POTUS I think you and Vance ambushed Zelensky on purpose to play tough for your MAGA base. How could you possibly want the war to end more than the Ukrainian people do? But it must not end in a way that throws away a hundred thousand brave Ukrainian lives.

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@POTUS Yes, you are all about bullying advantage. Shameful way to treat the president of a country with tens of thousands of people injured and dead from Russian aggression.

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@elonmusk @realDonaldTrump And so is Zelensky the commander in chief of his own country, which happens to be at war. Shameful bullying by Trump and Vance of a guest in the Oval. Probably a planned public ambush.

[Liz Cheney @Liz_Cheney]

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@WhiteHouse No, Vance and Trump disrespected and bullied the brave leader of a country at war in what looks like a planned ambush. No respect even for his struggleto speak English. Shameful!

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@Saint_Hadrian @RarelyTolerated Washing our hands= Giving Russia ownership/influence over Eastern Europe and Europe as a whole. Also = rewarding criminal aggression and many other war crimes.

[Sandy Baksys @sandyb52]

@bishopb0b @TimothyDSnyder I would like to think we are going to defend them for themselves and for our principles, not just for their minerals, and surely not for most or all of their minerals. That feels like extortion. Gonna make you a deal you can't refuse.

The premise of American foreign policy to Ukraine, today, is one of grievance. It is worth patiently considering the proposals. They reveal little about Ukraine, but much about America in February 2025.

Enough talking, it’s time to act! 1. Let’s finance our aid for Ukraine from the Russian frozen assets. 2. Let’s strengthen air policing, the Baltic sentry and the EU borders with Russia. 3. Let’s swiftly adopt new fiscal rules to finance the EU security and defence. Now!
