Right now seems like a good time to remind everyone that Donald Trump’s first impeachment was for withholding military aid from Ukraine until he could extort its president for dirt on Joe Biden to sabotage our election.

For those not following the #UkraineWar
with three slow loud #drones, 600km from the front

the Sukhoi Su-57 is the most advanced fighter jet #Russia has, it's fifth generation. and Russia does not have a lot of them
damaged/ taken out (the photos are blurry) with what amounts to nothing more than a cessna packed with explosives
amazing

First off fuck #Trump
There are no principles here, just an immoral shitstain doing transactional zero sum games, which is all the asshole understands
But this is a deal #Ukraine can do
Because, what Trump doesn't know (he doesn't know shit) is:
The #rareearths are primarily in #Donbas, currently occupied by #Russia
😉
#Zelensky: put on your charm and work the dotard bigot
"Trump seeks #Ukrainian rare earths in exchange for aid, #Kyiv keen to agree"

The Leader of the Free World. #Zelenskyy #SlavaUkraini
"I need ammunition, not a ride."
A reminder who the US government just tried to humiliate.
He remained in Kyiv while it was being bombarded. And you think this man can be bullied by the current lineup of GOP politicians?

What’s Mandelson up to? Is this really Kier Starmer’s message to Europe, or is Mandelson an outlier with this?

Peter Mandelson has been rebuffed for saying Volodymyr Zelenskyy should be more supportive of US peace efforts and that Ukraine should unilaterally call a ceasefire, with a UK defence minister saying this was “not government policy”.
The overnight comments by Lord Mandelson, the UK ambassador to Washington, were also criticised by opposition parties, with the Liberal Democrats saying Mandelson should not be “telling President Zelenskyy what to do”.
In an interview with ABC News, Mandelson, who was Keir Starmer’s choice to try to maintain ties with the second Donald Trump administration, said there was a need for a “very radical reset” after Trump and his vice-president, JD Vance, berated Zelenskyy in the Oval Office on Friday.
“The reset has to consist of the United States and Ukraine getting back on the same page, President Zelenskyy giving his unequivocal backing to the initiative that President Trump is taking to end the war and to bring a just and lasting peace to Ukraine,” Mandelson said.
“And the Europeans too, they need to back the calls for a ceasefire, and – by the way – I think that Ukraine should be the first to commit to a ceasefire and defy the Russians to follow.”
Asked whether this was government policy, Luke Pollard, the armed forces minister, replied: “No.” He told Sky News: “It’s certainly right that Ukrainians want peace. I think of all the people on our continent that want peace, the Ukrainians want it the most.
“But we’re still in discussions, diplomatic engagement with our European, US and Ukrainian friends as to the shape of that deal. It’s certainly right that the war could stop tomorrow if President Putin stopped his illegal and unprovoked aggression. He could stop this war.”
Asked if Mandelson had been incorrect with his comments, Pollard said: “That’s not government policy.”
Earlier, senior figures in the Lib Dems and Conservatives criticised Mandelson’s intervention. Ed Davey, the Lib Dem leader, tweeted: “What is Mandelson up to? You cannot square what the prime minister said this morning with this. What is the government’s actual position? Our man in DC should be securing US protection for our brave Ukrainian allies, not telling President Zelenskyy what to do.”
James Cleverly, a former Conservative foreign secretary, said: “The UK ambassador to Washington isn’t meant to communicate his own opinion, he is meant to communicate the UK government opinion. Lammy and Starmer need to grip this.”

Reporter: "You clearly admire President Zelenskyy. So I'm wondering what you thought when you saw the treatment he received in the Oval Office on Friday?"
Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada:
"I think, first of all, it's important every chance we get to lay out the facts as clearly as possible. In 2014, Russia chose to invade Ukraine, to occupy Crimea and parts of Eastern Ukraine. For that, they were kicked out of the G7 and in 2022 they chose to violate the existing ceasefire and invaded Ukraine with the intention of taking Kyiv in three days and the entire country in three weeks. That has failed. Russia continues to try to fight to claim more land in Ukraine, and we could see an end to this war tomorrow if Russia decided to stop its illegal invasion of Ukraine. On Friday in the Oval Office, President Zelenskyy pointed out in so many words that Vladimir Putin is a liar and a criminal and cannot be trusted to keep his word in any way, shape or form, because he has demonstrated time and time again that he will break any agreements. I stand with Volodymyr Zelenskyy and I stand with the people of Ukraine."
Note that these simple historic facts which are public knowledge and can be looked up by anyone, are what were stated by Volodymyr Zelenskyy when Donald Trump responded with, "It is very disrespectful of you to litigate this in front of American media" (found about halfway through the meeting, if you're looking in the videos).
Trump was attempting to spread Putin's "alternate timeline" to the American people, and told Zelenskyy that it is "disrespectful" of him to tell historic truth about what happened in his own country, in front of live video cameras in the US. Think about that...
Donald Trump went absolutely livid when President Zelenskyy gave the American people a free history lesson on live tv, something which he knows his base would never read for themselves.
Too many corporate media outlets are putting out headlines that read, "'Very disrespectful', says Trump" without telling the truth of what he found disrespectful, which was (in his own words) to counter Russian propaganda in front of American media.
