I know a lot of those Ukrainians who are fighting in the trenches. They fight for freedom because they will never be Russian slaves. And they fight to rid themselves of billionaire oligarchs like Elon.
Elon Musk

What’s actually going on in Ukraine is that there is a massive incentive difference between the elites and the people. The former have grown very rich off the hundreds of billions flowing to Ukraine, while the latter’s children are conscripted to die in trenches.

Ukraine just repatriated 270 POWs from Russian captivity. He has “Jew” carved into his back. These are the people are president says are “fine“ on Ukraine. That Witkoff calls “humanitarian.”

For having so much IQ, Vivek sure is dumb. That ad is one of the worst things I’ve ever seen; It’s what’s wrong with American politics. I think Ohio has taken notice.

This girl and her mother were recently killed in Kharkiv. Trump says Russia “has been fine on Ukraine.” Witkoff says Putin is a humanitarian. A vote for Republicans is a vote for this evil.

Trump: We were in the midst of negotiating and a lot of stupid people said why aren’t you putting Russian sanctions— Collins: But you said you didn’t give anything for his release Trump: If I didn’t do that, you wouldn’t have him coming back. Collins: So you did give something. Trump: You don’t know anything. You’re fake news CNN. Collins: You’re saying you lifted the sanctions in exchange for his release? Trump: You don’t know what you’re talking about. You’re a low IQ person. You’re a dummy.
