Vandenburg Coalition survey: 72% of Trump voters support helping Ukraine and holding Russia accountable. Over half back sending intel or Tomahawk missiles to strike inside Russia. Just 16% support Russia’s demand for more territory. Meanwhile, 83% want to uphold U.S. commitments to NATO and Ukraine.

The Trump administration is abusing the military justice system to target its political opponents. A despicable new low for a group that strives everyday to find the moral bottom.

That’s why Europe needs to wake the fuck up. Last week’s shit show won’t be the last unless Europe stops looking to US led diplomacy to end this war. They need to be more proactive. The administration’s incompetence will keep repeating itself until Europe says enough is enough.
So Trump made this shit up for nothing. Only for millions of hearts skipping beats and sending Europe into working overtime on a weekend. Though it is best, when this shitty plan bogs down on its own.
❗️A meeting between Zelenskyy and Trump this week is not scheduled, – sources of Suspline in the White House.

Most know Kirill Dmitriev as the Russian president’s envoy. But to more than 200 investors in Ukraine, he is known for taking part in a Kyiv real estate project that ended in a fraud and criminal case. Using articles from 2011, I was able to find more details. 🧵Thread:

The current mess in DC only signals to Beijing that the US lacks unity, organization, and strategic vision to handle an even larger conflict, as the Pacific region is likely to become. Bombing Iran after Israel's SEAD or running masculine army ads doesn’t compensate for it

Sounds like another wasted effort by the Trump administration to force Ukraine’s hand when the enemy only wants unconditional surrender.

💬 Russia flat out rejects Trump's 28-point peace plan: "Even in a reduced military and territorial form, Ukraine would remain a significant danger, requiring us to keep our forces on the western borders."
Russia Rejects Trump’s Peace Plan, Says Only Full Military Victory Over Ukraine Is Acceptable
A senior Russian official has labeled the US peace proposal for Ukraine as a provocation, insisting only military victory will suffice.

The Kremlin always has to use the “root causes” excuse to reject any ceasefire proposal that the US and Ukraine agree to. And the US administration has never applied maximum pressure on Russia when the “root causes” line is used.
5/ The Kremlin has similarly rejected US-proposed ceasefires and negotiations in recent months, while Ukraine has consistently shown a willingness to engage and compromise.

2/ Reported Russian government insiders also indicated that the Kremlin does not support the proposed 28-point peace plan.
Russian officials are setting informational conditions to reject the 28-point peace plan, which acquiesces to many — but not all — of Russia’s persistent war demands.

Short answer: Russia won't concede anything. This is yet another "peace plan" that just calls on Ukraine's unconditional surrender.
The reported peace plan developed by envoys for Trump and Putin sounds more like a list of Moscow's demands than a compromise between two combatants.
It's not clear what if anything Russia is willing to concede even as it insists that Ukraine give up a lot. www.ft.com/content/2353...

This administration is so stupid. They are keep on catering to the aggressor, disregarding any input or concerns from the victim. This is non stop cycle that has been going on for the last ten months of the Trump administration. They keep the same incompetent people doing the same things repeatedly.
FT reveals new details about a 28 point peace plan drafted by US and Russian officials that was quietly pushed to Kyiv. The framework would demand major territorial concessions in Donbas, a dramatic cut to Ukraine’s military, limits on key weapons and a rollback of US support.
