Putin: ‘Russia is ready to keep fighting until the last Ukrainian dies.’

Western politicians & press: ‘Peace talks have stalled…’

Russia has zero interest in peace. Calling Kremlin demands for Ukrainian surrender ‘peace talks’ is just another way of spreading their propaganda.

That is not Trump's strategy, David. That is simply who Trump is.
Trump’s whole strategy is to be so outrageous on multiple fronts—racism, corruption, misogyny, nativism, plutocracy, greed, authoritarianism, etc.—that it’s nearly impossible to keep a focus on any individual outrage or maintain a high level of indignation and concern. It’s deliberate bludgeoning.
I know it's too easy to grow numb to the constant flood of bigotry that comes out of his mouth but it does seem morally important you don't allow yourself or anyone else to become desensitized to this vile racism as a normal part of our politics

In my military experience, leaders sacrifice for their subordinates, and those subordinates sacrifice with their leaders for the mission. In no case whatsoever do subordinates sacrifice for their leaders. None. Ever. DUI-hire Hegseth is no leader. He does seem to be a murderer, however.
It's the opposite of "the buck stops here". He is selling out Admiral Bradley and sending chills down the spines of his chain of command, who now know their boss will sell them out if he is taking heat. A case study in how not to lead.

Imagine if we forced AI to ensure income equality and a humane minimum standard of living and eliminated billionaires in the process, confronting and stopping greed among people who cannot control themselves...

When the Epstein birthday book scandal broke, Trump assured us he does not draw. In all things, Trump lies.

Simple hypothetical question posed to a simple mind.
RAJU: If defenseless survivors were killed, would that constitute a violation of the laws of war?

MIKE JOHNSON: I'm not going to prejudge any of that. I was pretty busy yesterday. I didn't follow a lot of the news.

Import illegal drugs into the United States, get a pardon from Dementia Don.

Trump will issue hypocritical pardons for a fee. How else do you explain this?

Amid anti-drug push, Trump pardons leader convicted on cocaine charges
Trump said Nov. 28 that he planned to pardon the former Honduran leader, and a White House official confirmed Dec. 2 that the pardon had been issued.

"I passed my cognitive test with a perfect score, but I have know idea why I got an MRI or what part of my body the doctor looked at."

This is what happens when morons go senile.
If your doctor decided you needed an MRI (indicating concern about something serious) and you claim that you didn't ask why or what part of your body he wanted to look at, you are:

1. Really stupid; or

2. Dangerously detached from reality; or

4. Lying; or

4. All three. 🎯

Sadistic drunks must be barred from serving as Secretary of Defense. Imprison this war criminal.

Trump's fascist dictatorship is wasting time and our tax dollars. Fascism is racism, religion, and violence, combined with authoritarianism, so nothing here surprises.

Destroy Trump's fascist dictatorship and restore our Constitution and the rule of law.
This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

Well, in DUI-hire Hegseth's defense, he is a fucking idiot.

No matter who it is, the best approach almost always is to reward good behavior and condemn bad behavior. We make better people that way, and Greene is slightly better now than she has been. Seize this opportunity to make her even better. Epstein's victims are showing the way.
Supporting her because she dumped Trump is like adopting a raccoon because it stopped knocking over your garbage cans.
