Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday: "Paid 'troublemakers' are attending Republican Town Hall Meetings. It is all part of the game for the Democrats, but just like our big LANDSLIDE ELECTION, it's not going to work for them!" (No Donald, please, please stop your continuous lying, you didn't win by a landslide. You got 49.9% of the popular vote compared to 48.3% for Harris). NBC News reported that Republicans had largely cancelled town hall meets amid fear of blowback from Trump's actions. One Republican senator who went through with a town hall meeting faced people furious at Trump. Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) quickly ended the town hall event last week following angry protests over Trump's DOGE-related cuts.

A plan for peace. 1. After a ceasefire, Ukraine maintains a large and technologically advanced military, trained and supplied by its Western partners. 2. The US and Europe commit to arming Ukraine heavily if Russia invades again. This commitment is highly credible because the allies are doing that now. Nato allies could also sign a legally binding document and stockpile specific weapons systems that could be sent quickly to Ukraine in case of a renewed attack. We should remember, Ukraine’s own forces have protected the country for three years, preserving 80% of Ukrainian territory and forcing Russia into a costly war of attrition. If those forces remain strong, it would hardly be a foregone conclusion that Putin or his successor will make another attempt – not because the Kremlin can be trusted to keep its word but because it would suffer enormous losses for little gain. Ukraine, Europe and the US must use their leverage at the negotiating table to get Russia to stop fighting without requiring Ukraine to disarm. Russia might agree, having kept Ukraine out of Nato, and Nato, and its members’ forces, out of Ukraine.

Because the gap between ส and ว before ว is very short hence ส takes a low tone. ว following ส takes a low tone here too because being next to ส, it follows the tonal rule of ส which is low tone here as it ends in ส Another example of a consonant following the tonal rule of the former letter is ถนน When น is next to น the tone is mid นนทบุรี for example but with ถนน the rising tone rule of ถ next to a soft vowel ( excuse my incorrect technical terms), forces นน to rise

Elon Musk couldn't resist joining the Trump- Zelensky meeting.

'Trump and Vance were so rude': Ukrainians react to disastrous White House meeting Before the full-scale invasion in 2022, President Zelensky's trust rating was 37%. Afterwards, it rocketed to 90%. Before Donald Trump returned to office at the start of 2025, it was 52%. After he blamed Ukraine for starting the war, it hit 65%.

The European Union on Saturday expressed its "grave concern" about the repercussion of the Israeli military operation against Palestinian militants in the northern West Bank. The 40-day offensive, which has mainly taken place in refugee neighbourhoods, has resulted in numerous deaths, the displacement of around 40,000 Palestinians from their homes, and the "destruction of vital civilian infrastructure," the EU statement said. EU concerned about ongoing Israeli military operation in West Bank The EU urged Israel to take firm action against settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and expressed concern about the growing number of army checkpoints in the West Bank which are restricting freedom of movement there and worsening the economic and humanitarian situation.

I don't think it was all agreed. Here is what the BBC says: Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said Ukraine would not sign the deal until Zelensky and Trump "agree on security guarantees" and decide on how to "tie this preliminary agreement" to a US security guarantee. Ukraine minerals deal: What we know so far - BBC News Trump had said that the presence of US workers on Ukrainian soil would provide "automatic security" but it seems that was too vague for Zelensky.

Trump constantly claims if he had been President in 2022, Putin would never have invaded Ukraine. Presumably he's implying Putin would have been deterred by USA threatening force , sanctions, etc on Russia. Well, why doesn't he do that now? Tell Putin to get out of Ukraine or else.

Donald no mates Trump.

Because Putin would get nuked back

1. Assist the collapse of the Russian economy The Russian economy is on the brink of collapse and Putin knows it | The Independent 2. Increase production of arms for Ukraine There's a big European meeting on Sunday, wait for results from that.

According to CNN US intel shows Russia and China are attempting to recruit disgruntled federal employees, sources say | CNN Politics Russia and China are focusing their efforts on recently fired employees with security clearances and probationary employees at risk of being terminated, who may have valuable information about US critical infrastructure and vital government bureaucracy, two of the sources said. It added that foreign intelligence officers were being directed to look for potential sources on LinkedIn, TikTok, RedNote and Reddit. The adversaries think the employees “are at their most vulnerable right now,” another of the sources said. “Out of a job, bitter about being fired, etc.”

Europe stands with Ukraine.

Russia does not want the rest of Ukraine, you say. Now what makes you say that?

Zelensky and his nation are fighting for their very existence. As he explained to Trump etc, Putin thinks Ukraine has no right to be. So what should he/ they do? Surrender and be subjugated, murdered, their children carted off to Russia as thousands have already been done in the east? No, they want to be free, as free as we are and for three years they have fought successfully to repel Russia and its murderous regime. So if Trump wants to claim to be a peace maker he must guarantee military hardware to back up the peace But he won't so there is no peace. Trump, this year's Neville Chamberlain, an appeaser who's morally bankrupt.

Zelensky told Laurel and Hardy no deal was possible without serious military backup due to Putin's utter duplicity. A fact every sane person knows. So Vance lost his rag behaving like a school bully whilst Donald remarked it was good television because that's as far as his attention goes, ' look at me!'. To the disgust of the rest of the Western world, Trump has aligned with Putin, the dictator and mass murderer. So be it, Europe, Canada, Australia, Japan will go our own way

Class? Trump? You mean the man who posts an AI video of himself plus gold statue on Gaza beach? The man's the very definition of lo-so.

Come on Rubio, live up to your former words. Resign

Where's Putin, is he there in the Oval Office? I heard a TASS reporter was removed from there today

A lot of people couldn't believe the way Trump and Vance behaved. Zelensky calmly explained the number of times Putin broke agreements and Vance goes ballistic behaving like the goon he is. A shame to see the American government behaving like football hooligans.

Nothing decent about caving in to the mass murderer, Putin.
