Perhaps the author might want to study a little more recent history about Ukraine and US involvement therein. It’s not a simple case of “Putin bad.” Maidan Revolution and Ukrainian actions in the Donbas merit consideration. Victoria Nuland? Biolabs in Ukraine? Biden’s refusal to negotiate prior to the Russian SMO seemed duplicitous at best.

The conflict reeks of globalist manipulation.

And NATO? 15 members when the USSR disbanded. 32 now including Estonia and Finland on Russian border. War games in the Black Sea off Crimean coast. Missiles in Poland. Who is the aggressor?

Hello AI X G., you must be a smart Elon Apostle since you understand Russia as very few

do. The Main Problem is that the US Foreign Policy has been to use WAR as a Battering

Ram instead of Peaceful and Skilled Negotiations. From Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm 1 & 2

then back again to Iraq and Afghanistan and a few other armed conflicts in-between

not to mention REGIME CHANGE ALA CIA and now the next BIG WAR UKRAINE that

the US Funded at 350 Billion but probably alot more.

Over 1 Million Ukraine & Russian folk perished or badly injured for as you accurately say>

"...seemed duplicitous at best. The conflict reeks of globalist manipulation."

Well the Globalist Manipulating Elitist need to send their children to Ukraine and stop

Saying "We Will Fight TO THE LAST UKRAINE" and "AS LONG AT IT TAKES!!!!"

What if it was your Mother, Your Grandmother or you Husband or your Child?

I don’t take your initial insults personally.

We actually seem to be of the same mindset regarding Ukraine. However your final comments seem a bit mystifying to me. In no way do I support the conflict in Ukraine and it saddens me that Trump did not stop it as promised - seems the opposite now.

Hello AI X G, I do not know if your comment above directed at me or Bill.

Regardless I am in TOTAL agreement of what you say and yes Trump should

have ended this On Jan 21, 2025 as he said. The entire UKRAINE VS RUSSIA

Peace Negotiations is MISSING THE MAIN SUPPORTER of the WAR >> THE USA.

Stop the Money & Munitions the WAR IS OVER as shown here>

Howard, thanks for the clarification.

I find it disturbing that Trump went from decrying the horrific death count of the war to suddenly signing Zelensky to a mineral deal and resuming US munitions aid. Of course he still speaks of a peace deal too. Kind of hard to envision for me - hope I am wrong. No US help no war there. Same in Gaza if you call that a war.

AI X G "I find it disturbing that Trump went from decrying the horrific death count of the war to suddenly signing Zelensky to a mineral deal and resuming US munitions aid"

When it is you, your family or your friends being Killed in Ukraine it becomes emotional and personal as it should be.

"Kind of hard to envision for me - hope I am wrong"

So do I AI X G.

Hello J. Livingston, I and another person live, breath and have sleepless nights

on the carnage in UKRAINE which we carefully watch daily. A Leader who

UNDERSTANDS this WAR could end it much quicker. However, there would

be POLITICAL PROBLEMS doing so. This is TRUMPS last term so "Damn the

Torpedo's and Full Steam Ahead" as Farragut said>

Ther term "globalists" have become a commonly used term that may have much less meaning of anything in reality. Of course, the surnames of Soros and the Rothchild family are all mentioned. It would seem we need more evidence of an elitist group, such as a group of guys standing in front of Joe's Bar and Grill ... the picture includes Soros, Rothchilds, Bezos, Gates, etc., all the expected villains and then some. Can you tell I go nuts with the term "globalists?"

Don't forget the duo President Trump called "The Globalist Koch Brothers"..

America First is squeezing out neoconservatism. Realpolitik is making a comeback. You can still like Ukraine (I don't) and Israel (I do) and not wish to drag a superpower nation of 335 million people into war over abstract concepts which have nothing (Ukraine) or little (Israel) to do with concrete day-to-day interests of average Americans. Idealism must take a backseat when someone shows up at a knife fight with a gun.

I needed a chuckle; Robert and you provided it. Ellen most likely will connect with Rosie for companionship in the UK. Maybe George and Bruce are next to leave temporarily to display their disappointments and start their own Vaudeville team with an act of juggling bombs. So many Dems are soured because braindead Biden or Harris didn't become commander-in-chief to assure the U.S. is blown up someday.

Buy 'em all a one way ticket and wish 'em good luck. All they have to do is renounce their U.S. citizenship and can't come back. We'll see how long it takes these dopes to miss the good 'ol USA!

I am surprised you didn't mention Moody's downgrade due to our Big Beautiful President's actions. How about the big beautiful bribe our AG seems to think fine and our law abiding leader is so giddy about. So much grift, so little time.

Just to quote from the Moody (the horse's mouth), “Extending President Donald Trump’s 2017 tax cuts, a priority of the Republican-controlled Congress would add $4 trillion over the next decade to the federal primary deficit (which does not include interest payments).” But yes, Biden added to the dept as has and seemingly will Trump.

And why is any critique of Trump labeled TDS with Madame Press Secretary of the Current? You pile it on every sentence to the other side? Is that a form of TDS as well?
