Everyday I wake up asking myself, “Why are we putting up with this BS?”
This is the United States and we have been taken over by the worst enemy ever to come along in our history.
And no one is doing much to stop it.
Our founding fathers must be rolling over in their graves.

I think people in the USA would understand better how much land Putin is trying to steal if they compared it to something they know.

Four years Ukraine is fighting for the whole Europe.
NATO was built to fight only one war, not to go to Afghanistan, not to go to Syria. One war to save free Europe from Russian aggression.

Putin launched Europe’s biggest war since WWII — killing civilians, kidnapping children, and eliminating political opponents. Yet Mr. Witkoff says he’s “not a bad guy.” Diplomacy requires engaging with dictators, but that doesn't mean we have to check our values at the door.

Congress, pay attention. We the People decide where our money goes — not the President. And we are demanding full support for Ukraine, with everything they need to win. Trump does not hold the power of the purse. The American people do. Act accordingly.

This is a Putin plan for Ukraine.
What we need to do is put pressure on Putin to negotiate and we need to continue to support the courageous people of Ukraine.

Russian propagandist Solovyev says that children in Russian-occupied territories of Ukraine had been brainwashed "for a long time" and "need to be treated."
This is yet another issue with Ukraine giving up territories - what will happen to people living there?

It matters that our agreements with the Netherlands are being implemented very promptly. The Prime Minister noted that one of the energy packages – various equipment, including transformers – is already on its way to Ukraine.

Now it is about much more than these or those points of this or that document. We must ensure that the principle that crimes against people and humanity, against states and peoples can have some kind of reward and forgiveness does not prevail anywhere in Europe and the world.

I remember of a defense guarantee for Ukraine, when they destroy their nuclear weapons.
That guarantee was signed by the US and by Russia.

The Holodomor was a series of artificial famines by the soviet regime in 1921–1923, 1932–1933, and 1946–1947. The most devastating (1932–1933) was a genocide of Ukrainians, taking millions of lives.

US Embassy chief Julie Davis says peace talks between Ukraine and Russia are moving at an “aggressive pace,” calling it one of the most intense diplomatic pushes she’s seen in 30 years.
In reality, this “aggressive pace” looks a lot more like extortion and a sellout.
