More troublesome for Putin than for Zelensky? About 25% of Ukraine's population has fled, while Russia has lost just a few. It is better from a human standpoint, but not better from a strategic standpoint. And the there are the nukes... I think Zelenski should go back to Trump hat-in-hand, but as that could be seen as a will for Trump, the left won't have it. That's why they sabotaged the meeting to start with. The American left would rather see every Ukrainian dead and half of Europe flattened than to see a peace deal negotiated by Trump.

Yeah, kids. My dad was a kid when he joined after Pearl Harbor. I think you are sadly disinformed.

And had Obama done something when Russia took Crimea, or had he just agreed to sell arms to Ukraine, it likely never would have started. But here we are. Do you think the UK should send a hundred thousand kids to fight in Russia?

What am I, trying to play chess with a pigeon here? Zelensky had agreed to the terms prior to the meeting and then reneged. It was supposed to be a signing ceremony and a photo-op, not a negotiation. That you do not seem to understand that is telling.

I did not like the way he blew up in the meeting with Zelensky.

Support how? Zelensky had the support of the US and most of Europe and is at an effective stalemate after a million dead and wounded and losing a quarter of his population. Do you think European parents want their kids fighting in Russia?

Only the half that lost the election and runs the media are "horrified at Trump's handling of everything" and pretend he's "trying to be a dictator." The half that voted for Trump are, for the most part, delighted.

I just use my old phone with a US sim and wifi calling, and I generally just leave it home.

The House yes, the Senate, no.

Support Ukraine how? Again, Zelensky had the support of the US and most of Europe and is at an effective stalemate after a million dead and wounded and losing a quarter of his population.

Typical leftist, never an original thought...

Uh oh, is that you Kiers?

So, your response is to regurgitate, hilarious.

All the leftists here quit actually arguing years ago. All they do anymore is regurgitate leftist talking points and inane memes. How nice it would be to have an honest discussion.

And bring a rainbow down to join the counties with love. Support Ukraine how? Again, Zelensky had the support of the US and most of Europe and is at an effective stalemate after a million dead and wounded and losing a quarter of his population.

If only Obama had done something when Putin stole Crimea. Yes, most if not all of us agree Russia invaded Ukraine illegally, I know I do. So, Zelensky had the backing of the US and most of Europe and is at an effective stalemate after a million dead and wounded and losing a quarter of his population. What is the way forward? Do you think morons protesting Vance skiing with his family want to get over there and fight for Ukraine? Do you think European parents want their kids to go fight in Russia? What is the way forward if not a peace agreement?

I guess it depends on how important the calls are. If you bank is going to turn off your credit card, or stop a transfer, or if you get locked out of your brokerage account the calls are worth a good bit.

The left hates Trump a lot more than they care about Ukraine.

Actually, cashmere is quite comfortable.

How many were fired, and how many had to be recalled? Nuclear waste inspectors. And how many? Asking people to list five bullet points of what they did the week before is absurd? Off billions of savings per who, and out of how much? How do comparatively few terminations in the national park service constitute gutting it? Everything they have been doing is (so far) legal and constitutional. So, getting fired is okay when they are nice about it? While I read about it, I see no evidence of ignorance, corruption, and malice.

Do they all come with the lifetime warranty?

I feel sorry for leftists that conflate love of country with love of Trump.

Hard to have a "net zero" military.

So, why have they not?
