Homelander Posted Monday at 10:24 PM Posted Monday at 10:24 PM Day 1 - Trump promised to end the war. Instead, he got distracted by tee times and tantrums.

Now patience is wearing thin. 1
B-Man Posted Wednesday at 04:18 PM Posted Wednesday at 04:18 PM Zelenskyy on Ropes – Ukranian Regime Grabs More Authoritarian Power Then Backtracks When Protests Erupt The terms Ukraine and government corruption are synonymous regardless of who is funding the schemes. After Volodymyr Zelenskyy grabbed more power by stripping two key anti-corruption agencies, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAP), of their independence, protests erupted. European leaders immediately noticed the intent of the power move and threatened Zelenskyy with a withdrawal of support. The current dictatorship of Zelensky and his small team then quickly reversed course. However, the damage is done, and once again Ukranian corruption is center stage. https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2025/07/29/zelenskyy-on-ropes-ukranian-regime-grabs-more-authoritarian-power-then-backtracks-when-protests-erupt/
Homelander Posted yesterday at 01:16 AM Posted yesterday at 01:16 AM On 2/20/2025 at 8:23 AM, Joe Ferguson forever said: why don't you do some research? https://www.kyivpost.com/analysis/47435 Images from Wednesday’s Riyadh meeting showed Russian businessman Dmitry Rybolovlev, an oligarch responsible for helping Trump out of a debt crunch by purchasing a Trump Palm Beach property valued at $40 million for $95 million in 2008, was a member of the Kremlin delegation and present at the talks. https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/news/2020/09/15/trumps-sale-palm-beach-mansion-gains-scrutiny-again/5798386002/ "Back in Palm Beach, I'm curious," a CNBC commentator said. "Are you going to make the Russian who bought your house put up an American flag, like the big controversy you had with the town?" Trump's reply: "I think what I'll do is I will demand that he puts up the American flag — and the Russian flag can fly right under it." In his book, Cohen wasn't hesitant to talk about Russians. He wrote that Russia’s oligarchs “are just fronts for (Russian President Vladimir) Putin. He puts them into wealth to invest his money. That’s all they are doing, investing Putin’s money …Trump was convinced the real buyer of that house was Vladimir Putin.” It always circles back to Russia - because from Flynn on down to Trump, they’ve all been too busy running cover for these ***ing traitors. Wolff: Now Epstein’s explanation for why this friendship ended is as follows. In 2004, Epstein believed himself to be the high bidder on a piece of real estate in Palm Beach—a house. His bid was $36 million. He took his friend Trump around to see the house, to advise him on how to move the swimming pool. Trump thereupon went around Epstein’s back and bid $40 million for the house—and got the property. Epstein, who was well acquainted and in fact deeply involved with Trump’s scattered finances, understood that he didn’t have $40 million to pay for this house. Now, if that was the case, it was someone else’s $40 million. At the time, Epstein believed this to be the $40 million of a Russian oligarch by the name of Rybolovlev. Less than two years later, this same house that Trump had bought for $40 million was sold for $95 million—and it was in fact sold to Mr. Rybolovlev. This is all a red flag of money laundering. And what Epstein did—and he was furious about losing this house—I mean, there’s something about these guys, these men, that nothing rouses them so much as a real estate betrayal. Epstein, after this—the sale of this house, after Trump went around his back, got this house—Epstein began to threaten with lawsuits, with going to the press and saying that Trump was a frontman for a money laundering deal. Trump panics at this point, and Epstein believed—that it was Trump who went to the police and, as Epstein said, dropped the dime on him. That is to say, informed the police of what was going on. And an investigation began, and all of Epstein’s legal problems for the next 15 years began to unfold. This story about this piece of real estate and their falling out was first published in June 2019. It’s published actually in my book Siege, the second book I had written about the Trump White House. Epstein had recounted this story to me. I put it in this book. Epstein, at that moment, was in Paris. He read the book. He called me with some alarm, and he said he was afraid that he might have said too much. Three weeks later, he returned to the United States from Paris and was promptly arrested on the tarmac of Teterboro Airport in New Jersey when his plane landed. 1
Coffeesforclosers Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago According to the President, this year's KIA totals are 14:1 in favor of Ukraine. Someone should tell Putin this is unsustainable. We also told the Russians we're moving nuclear subs toward Russia in response to recent nuclear saber rattling by Dmitri Medvedev. Congress will debate another $55ish billion in Ukraine aid. Which shouldn't be that awful because Zelensky just rolled back his dumbass law that neutered anti-corruption watchdogs. Soooo we're back to Biden's Ukraine policy, but with more hee-hawing about peace, and nastier name calling on X.
