Putin rejects cease fire. Shocking. Trump, the great negotiator, chose to destroy any US leverage.

@dirge lol, look, all computer!

@MistyCee Oh I guess Trump can't share intel anymore. Russia didn't accept the deal.

@Bumbles Everything is a bargaining chip to Trump and he loves putting up other people's money.

I just flipped on the TV and saw him talking about lives lost, and it's kind of sad. I think he really is trying to come across as a normal, compassionate human being, but it's not that convincing.

@MistyCee He's not capable, and we know where his sympathy is. Whenever he refers to "lives lost" and "peace" he's telling a half-truth about the conflict. It's like saying "mistakes were made" using the passive voice. Putin is engaged in conquest and Trump just wants a Nobel Peace Prize so even more motivation for him to sell-out Ukraine.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow How many NATO troops are currently fighting the russian invaders in Ukraine?

@newjaninev2 Impossible to say. But all those fancy weapons like ATTACMS, and the fancy missiles require NATO soldiers to program them and input the target and guidance systems.

It is literally treason for those duties to be carried out by Ukraine or any other nation. So by definition NATO troops have to be on the ground in Ukraine. Just like for years Vietnam was flooded with "advisers". All this stuff is also classified so both of us will likely die of old age before that info is publicly available.

And like any other proxy war NATO is making Ukraine do most of the dying for NATO interests.

What various countries officially own up to is completely irrelevant.

And we would never have gotten here if the US had not carried out a coup in Kiev in 2013. But you love conveniently giving the west a blanket pass on everything.
