This proposed mineral deal with Ukraine is outright extortion. Trump isn’t offering protection for Ukraine and it will of course be rejected (as it should be). I imagine Trump will then blame Ukraine for not being willing to negotiate and walk away. He may also walk away from NATO at the same time

You know, J.D. Vance wasn't there to inform the defenders of Kyiv in 2022 that Ukraine couldn’t win, so they fought bravely and fiercely and eventually defeated the Russian onslaught to take the Ukrainan capital, thus totally derailing Putin's blitzkrieg.

Zelenskyy emphasized that the country will sign only an agreement that is beneficial to both the United States and the Ukrainian people. He also stressed the need for clearly defined security guarantees in the agreement, as they will provide the foundation for a stable partnership and development.

I had not realised they had done this, this is not good at all. I've looked into HB to see what would happen if we could no longer afford rent. They expect you to find a 3 bed house for about £1,100 a month in my area where most houses are between £1,600 and £1,800 a month.

Meanwhile my earlier prediction of reaching 10,000 destroyed tanks on Valentine's Day, still looks spot on.
And the number of invaders losing life or limbs in #Ukraine trundles past 840,000
