JD Vance just said that ''America isn't obligated to stand by Ukraine because they aren't in a formal alliance.''
Dear JD. Vance,
Look up ''Budapest Memorandum 1994.''
You are welcome.
UNBELIEVABLE: Russian state-run media is now broadcasting footage of Trump administration official Steve Witkoff calling Vladimir Putin a “HUMANITARIAN.”
Yes, a HUMANITARIAN.
Let’s review who Witkoff is praising:
- Invaded Ukraine, unleashing a devastating war that has killed thousands of civilians and displaced millions.
- Oversaw the unlawful deportation of Ukrainian children, resulting in an International Criminal Court arrest warrant against him.
- Presided over a military responsible for massacres of civilians, including atrocities in Bucha.
- Devastated Mariupol, where Russian forces bombed a theater sheltering civilians, including children.
- Ordered widespread attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, leaving millions without electricity and heat during freezing winters.
- Oversaw a regime responsible for systematic torture, rape, and other war crimes in occupied Ukrainian territory.
Imprisoned opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who subsequently died in a Russian prison.
- Backed brutal bombing campaigns in Syria, where Russian and Syrian forces repeatedly attacked hospitals and civilian areas.
- Crushed political dissent, imprisoning critics, independent journalists, and antiwar protesters.
And now, because Putin released an American imprisoned in Russia for more than four years, Trump’s envoy is praising him as a humanitarian.
There’s a reason Russian propaganda outlets are broadcasting this footage.
When the Kremlin can use the words of an American official to rehabilitate the image of an accused war criminal, something has gone terribly wrong.
Putin isn’t a humanitarian. He’s a dictator wanted by the International Criminal Court. And the Trump administration just handed him a propaganda victory.
Of course, we are not losing this war. But we are losing people. Because of the Russian attacks, we're losing people and time. It's such a pity, because our children don't have a real life and childhood. Not only children, but all people. That's why we need to end this war as quickly as possible. I hope that our partners, Americans and Europeans, will help us. God bless, our strong soldiers stay strong on the battlefield. It helps me stay strong during any kind of negotiations.
This video needs to go viral.
It is so true in every way. Trump is controlled by Vladimir Putin. He clearly puts Russia before America. @ProjectLincoln
Trump engaged in a thoughtful, extended conversation with—nothingness. He suddenly stopped, waved, saluted, offered greetings, and chatted for a bit with the empty space. 😁🤭
The cameraman deliberately zoomed out to show that there was absolutely no one to be seen for hundreds of meters in any direction.
Apparently, Trump received a visit from the very same "invisible person"—the kind of encounter he had previously mocked Joe Biden for supposedly having.

Vanha vihulainen. Isosisoäitini sanoi: ”se vie viljan pellosta, kalat vedestä ja lapset sylistä”.
Vuoden vanha lapsi. Häneen ja moniin lastenpuistossa iskettiin droneilla.
Ei kannata unohtaa, ettei Venäjän tappamisessa ole sääntöjä.
Joskus pahuus suututtaa niin pirusti.
- Russia has a massive logistics problem in Donbas, as Ukrainian drones are destroying its vehicles.
- The Kremlin informs the White House about this problem.
- Musk, Trump, and Hegseth throttle Starlink in Ukraine, hampering Ukrainian drone strikes.
- Trump and his pals are promised lucrative business deals with Russia.
- Thousands of Ukrainians die, while Russia threatens to seize even more territory.
I've never witnessed such a betrayal in my life.
A horrific Russian strike in the Kharkiv region. A “shahed” struck people directly – in a park near an ordinary café. Pure atrocity. Six people were killed, including children. A little girl was killed in a stroller – her name was Angelina, she was just over a year old, born in August 2025… Her mother’s name was Inna. She died in the hospital… Another girl who was killed was 11 years old. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Another 14 people were injured, including six more children.
I am grateful to everyone who supports Ukraine under these circumstances and helps us shoot down “shaheds,” shoot down missiles, and stop Russian assaults. These are horrific photos, but behind them are shattered lives and the truth about this war. Lives must be protected. Ukraine needs air defense. You can't think about making money with Russia as long as it continues its asinine war. We ask that sanctions on Russia stay in place as long as the killings continue. We ask America to be strong, and we ask it to apply the Lindsey Graham law. We ask Europe to continue its support. We ask that everything possible be done to bring peace and guarantee security. Ukraine wants peace. It is Russia that has insisted on continuing the killing all this time. The world has enough strength to stop the war. That strength must finally be used – against the murderers.
Trumpin lausuntoja kuunnellessa alkaa tuntua, ettei pohjaa ole olemassakaan.
Venäjä iski jälleen lennokilla Ukrainaan, tällä kertaa puistoon Harkovan alueella. Iskun jälkeen julkisuuteen levisi kuva, jossa pieni lapsi makaa kuolleena lastenvaunuissaan.
Olen itsekin vanhempi, enkä oikein löydä sanoja kuvaamaan, miltä tuollaisen näkeminen tuntuu. Ajatus siitä, että joku lähtee lapsensa kanssa ulos aivan tavallisena päivänä eikä kumpikaan enää koskaan palaa kotiin, on yksinkertaisesti sietämätön.
Ja sitten Trump toteaa samana päivänä:
”Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven't been doing much.”
Venäjä on aloittanut Euroopan suurimman hyökkäyssodan sitten toisen maailmansodan. Sen sotilaat ovat teloittaneet aseettomia siviilejä, raiskanneet naisia ja lapsia, kiduttaneet sotavankeja sähköiskuilla ja seksuaalisella väkivallalla sekä murhanneet ihmisiä heidän koteihinsa ja kaduille.
Venäjä on pakkosiirtänyt ukrainalaisia lapsia, repinyt perheitä erilleen ja vienyt ihmisiä vankiloihin, joista kaikki eivät ole koskaan palanneet. Sen lennokit ovat jahdanneet tavallisia siviilejä Hersonissa.
Se on pommittanut sairaaloita, asuinrakennuksia ja energiainfrastruktuuria, jättänyt lapsiperheitä pakkaseen ja vanhuksia loukkuun koteihinsa. Kokonaisia kaupunkeja on tuhottu ja lukemattomien ihmisten elämä murskattu.
Tähän päälle Trump on valmis keskustelemaan Ukrainan sodasta Putinin ja Kiinan presidentin Xi Jinpingin kanssa ilman Ukrainan presidenttiä. Samalla hän vähättelee Venäjän tekoja ja syyllistää jälleen Ukrainan johtoa.
Jos Yhdysvaltain presidentti ei kykene toimimaan vapaan maailman moraalisena äänenä ja selkärankana, jonkun muun on otettava se tehtävä kantaakseen.
Ymmärrän kyllä kansainvälisen politiikan raadollisuuden. Suurvallat ovat kautta historian sopineet asioista keskenään, ja pienemmät valtiot ovat joutuneet seuraamaan vierestä, kuinka niiden kohtalosta päätetään. Maailmanpolitiikka ei ole oikeudenmukaisuuskilpailu, eikä diplomatiaa voi rakentaa pelkän moraalisen närkästyksen varaan.
Silti Ukrainan sodan tämänhetkisestä tilanteesta on vaikea löytää häivähdystäkään oikeudenmukaisuutta. Pelkään pahoin, että meidän on varauduttava myös siihen mahdollisuuteen, että tämän sodan päättävissä neuvotteluissa paha saa lopulta palkkansa. Että Venäjä saa pitää ainakin osan väkivallalla valtaamistaan alueista ja että hyökkäyssota osoittautuu sille ainakin osittain kannattavaksi.
Se olisi äärimmäisen vaarallinen viesti meille muille.
In just 10 days, the Trump administration has:
- Struck a deal to buy Russian diesel and eased sanctions.
- Suspended the bipartisan Graham-Blumenthal Russia sanctions law, just weeks after signing it.
- Restricted Ukraine's access to Starshield satellite services.
- Suspended intelligence warnings about Russian missile launches targeting Ukraine for several days.
- Threatened to cut intelligence sharing unless Ukraine stopped striking Russian oil infrastructure.
- Pressured Ukraine to remove Zelenskyy from power.
- Downplayed Russia's and China's assistance to Iran in its war against the US, dismissing it as "very little."
- Proposed unfreezing Russian sovereign assets and placing some under US control.
- Pursued lucrative US-Russia business deals, including cooperation on data centres.
- Proposed that Europe resume buying Russian gas as part of a Ukraine peace deal
If Trump were actually a Russian agent, what exactly would he be doing differently?
Since the American President announced the energy ceasefire a week ago, Russia has deliberately attacked Ukraine’s energy and oil and gas sectors 76 times. Last night alone, there were strikes on substations in the Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr, Khmelnytskyi, and Odesa regions. Tens of thousands of families remain without power. Energy workers and repair crews are working virtually around the clock to restore electricity supply. Overnight, the Russians also struck residential buildings in our regions. As of now, 12 people have been reported injured, including two children. Two people have been killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones. This morning, there was a strike on an agricultural enterprise in Volyn. All necessary services are working at the site.
In total, over this past week, the Russians have attacked Ukraine with almost 2,700 attack drones, 1,700 aerial bombs, and 66 missiles, most of them ballistic. The main targets of these strikes are energy facilities – the Russians are trying to cause a blackout. And America should see that Russia is not taking any reciprocal steps in response to sanctions relief or agreements. On the contrary, they take every signal of an opportunity to make money as proof that their bet on war is paying off and they can keep fighting. It is because of this position of Russia’s that the war continues, not because Ukraine is rightfully defending itself. It is Russia that must face pressure for peace to have a chance. Thank you to everyone who understands this and helps.
Appears to be absolutely MASSIVE protests all across the US yesterday and this platform is so skewed to the Trump/Putin side that this is the first I've seen or heard of it.
BREAKING:
5 Russian suicide drones have struck northern Moldova over the past day.
1 Moldovan citizen was wounded in one of the strikes. Russia keeps wounding and killing Europeans even outside of Ukraine
