Lol.
I can't with you MAGA.

Trump sent deadly javelin missiles to Ukraine to kill any Russian tank invaders while Obama sent them blankets and sheets.
That makes Trump a Russian stooge.
New term you might want to know about.
argumentum ad contrarium

Trump reversed Obama’s policy; in 2018, the Trump administration approved a plan to sell Ukraine Javelin missiles for $47 million.

Trump also withheld aid when trying to pressure Ukraine to investigate his political rivals. During a July 2019 phone call, Zelenskyy told Trump he was almost ready to buy more Javelins from the U.S. Trump replied by asking for "a favor," which was to collect dirt on Biden, a potential 2020 presidential race opponent at the time.

IjeBos:
They had to attack Ukraine because they didn't want Nato encroaching?
Why not just attack NATO?
Will they also attack Sweden and Finland now they are in NATO?

Of course not.
Because it was never about NATO.
It was a war to acquire Ukraines minerals and grains and hatred for Ukraine that it had turned West.

Android17:
Attacking Ukraine was attacking NATO.

Remember, NATO was/is using Ukraine?? So attacking Ukraine was Russia's way of fighting back at NATO. Simple.

Previous Comments: Trump has previously criticized Zelensky for not dressing formally, particularly in military attire.
Zelensky should have figured that out. It's not that he doesn't own suits.

IjeBos:
Honestly, you should ask yourself what vested interest you have in any of this to allow urself to make such useless and ridiculous comments.
You're selling yourself for a movement of Racists.

bemeruca:
Is not VP Biden that was holding ukraine to ramsom? They had to hire hunter and fire the prosecutor because of biden.

Zelensky is use to getting standing ovation from EU leaders as they made him feel he is the one saving them from Russia.

Zelensky is also fool by the fake news media headlines like "macron fact checked trump in real time" etc.

He wanted his own moment

While the Obama administration refused to provide Ukraine with lethal weapons in 2014 to fight Russian-backed separatists, it offered a range of other military and security aid — not just “blankets.” The administration’s concern was that providing lethal weapons like Javelin anti-tank missiles might provoke Russian President Vladimir Putin to escalate the conflict in the separatist Donbas area of Ukraine near Russia’s border.

Trump sent them javelins. Obama .. blankets, sheets, night vision goggles, paper straws to conserve the environment, paper clips , high heels for their women fighters, nail cutters, and some gay shit pride flags .

You really have a comprehension problem if not TDS.

IjeBos:
They should go attach a US carrier or one of the actual European Nato countries if they want to fight NATO.
Surprise why they didn't do that.
Because they wasn't fighting NATO.

Honestly, most of the stuff you write is nonsense.
Really, take a look in the mirror and figure out what your end goal is.

you obviously do not know the difference between aid - and a service you PAY for

Hundreds of weather forecasters and other federal National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration employees on probationary status were fired Thursday, lawmakers and weather experts said.

Federal workers who were not let go said the afternoon layoffs included meteorologists who do crucial local forecasts in National Weather Service offices across the country.

Cuts at NOAA appeared to be happening in two rounds, one of 500 and one of 800, said Craig McLean, a former NOAA chief scientist who said he got the information from someone with first-hand knowledge. That’s about 10% of NOAA’s workforce.

Judge orders Trump admin to rescind memo directing mass firing of federal workers
The first round of cuts were probationary employees, McLean said. There are about 375 probationary employees in the National Weather Service — where day-to-day forecasting and hazard warning is done.

The firings come amid efforts by billionaire Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency to shrink a federal workforce that President Donald Trump has called bloated and sloppy. Thousands of probationary employees across the government have already been fired.

Rep. Grace Meng, D-N.Y., released a statement saying: “Today, hundreds of employees at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), including weather forecasters at the National Weather Service (NWS), were given termination notices for no good reason. This is unconscionable.”


The comedian shocked fans after slicing his hand open during a passionate monologue on the Comedy Central series. Stewart was speaking at length about Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency on the Feb. 24 episode when he smashed a coffee mug against his desk, leaving both him and the audience surprised when he realized he’d injured himself.
Meng added: "These are dedicated, hardworking Americans whose efforts help save lives and property from the devastating impacts of natural disasters across the country. This action will only endanger American lives going forward

Ibime:
JD Vance said before that "he doesn't care what happens to Ukraine", so "too radical" as a response is very diplomatic.

Vance came in that meeting with bad mind to cause trouble. Anybody can see it in that video. He is overstepping his mark as VP where two Presidents are speaking. Zelensky wasn't even saying anything edgy, just pointing out that Putin always broke ceasefires and Vance started shouting asking for respect and thanks.

That's how Vance came to Europe shouting at Presidents and Prime Ministers, someone needs to tell him VP no be President. That's like Shettima shouting at Cameroon President, dem no born am well.

Wage increase for Air Traffic Controllers due.

On Thursday, U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy announced that the Trump administration is actively working to address the air traffic controller staffing shortage by exploring a 30% pay increase for new recruits.
“This staffing shortage has been a known challenge for over a decade, and this administration is committed to solving it,” Duffy stated. “The new streamlined hiring process is just the first step to deliver on President Trump’s agenda to prioritize the American people’s safety and modernize the federal government.”
Under the proposed plan, the starting wage for air traffic controller trainees would increase from $17.61 to $22.84 per hour. Duffy emphasized that this adjustment is designed to provide a livable wage during training, with certified controllers potentially earning an average of $160,000 annually within three years. However, he noted that the pay increase would need congressional approval to secure the necessary funding.

He still your public enemy number one

cococandy:
What does that have to do with the weather? And the crucial staff being laid off?

You don’t get sick of your whataboutism?

cococandy:
Elon has been overshadowing him you can see he was itching to make an impression. This is his first time being in the “big leagues” and actually participating in a history making moment and he didn’t know how to act.

It’s the same way he wanted to debate Kamala. As if she was on his level or running against him. Dude doesn’t know how to act his wage.

The more he opens his mouth the more it’s easy to see why Trump chose him. Because if Trump is going to do one thing, it’ll always be to choose someone who is less than him on the charismatic scale to be his running mate. At least that person won’t outshine him.

Preempting you from saying he is firing ATCs.

The Trump administration has begun firing hundreds of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) employees, weeks after a fatal mid-air plane collision in Washington DC.
Several hundreds of the agency's probationary workers received the news via email late on Friday night, head of Professional Aviation Safety Specialists (PASS) union David Spero said in a statement.
Spero called the firings "shameful" and said they "will increase the workload and place new responsibilities on a workforce that is already stretched thin".
The agency "has retained employees who perform safety critical functions", the FAA said in a statement.

"The FAA continues to hire and onboard air traffic controllers and safety professionals, including mechanics and others who support them," it added in a statement sent to the BBC.
The layoffs are part of a cost-cutting drive, driven by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), that aims to drastically cut the federal workforce.
According to Spero's statement, workers affected include systems specialists, safety inspectors, maintenance mechanics and administrative staff, among others.
Criticising the move, Spero said the FAA is "already challenged by understaffing", and that the decision to cut staff was "unconscionable in the aftermath of three deadly aircraft accidents in the past month", including the crash near Washington DC's Ronald Reagan airport, in which 67 people were killed.
Jason King, who is among those laid off, said he was worried about how the move would impact on aviation safety.
He told WUSA9, an affiliate of the BBC's US partner CBS, firing people directly involved with air safety is "concerning for public safety in our national airspace."
Mr King, whose work at the FAA involved directly addressing safety concerns, said the move "threatens public trust and increases the likelihood of future accidents".
"Aviation safety should never be treated as a budget item that can just be completely cut," he added.

Though the National Transport Safety Board has not yet determined the cause of the collision, staffing levels in air traffic control at the airport, were reportedly below normal levels on the evening of the crash.

Didn’t he just endanger the whole flight industry by firing critical FAA workers?

He has made a fool of himself before when he opened his mouth at the Munich security conference a few weeks ago. The guy needs a check up from the neck up. See the quote below.

He doesn’t know how to resolve conflict like a civilized human. Trump chose him because they both choose to operate from the primitive part of the brain that is responsible for our lowest instincts and impulses, not logic and intelligence. We are governed by swines. George Orwell’s “1984” comes to mind.

Konkoja:
You are gambling with World War III - Trump.
Did he mistake Zelensky for Putin?

MERCHANDISER:
I just watch all Zelensky's video with Trump now. his actions at the Oval Office show that he doesn't have the experience or skills needed to handle politics and international diplomacy. His behavior was either a sign of inexperience or of someone high on drugs, and it raises questions about his ability to lead Ukraine during such an important time. Whether you like it or not, Ukraine is a key country in Europe right now, and it needs a strong, capable leader. I think it's time for Zelensky to step down and let someone more experienced take over.

What he did during his meeting with the U.S. President was embarrassing. Even someone like Putin, who is one of the most powerful leaders in the world, wouldn’t act that way. The idiot reiterate the same propaganda narratives in front of the American leadership, who are well-informed through their extensive intelligence networks, was both tactless and counterproductive. Claiming that Ukraine still has sufficient manpower to continue the war, accusations that Putin violated the Minsk agreements, and assertions that Russia disregards prisoner exchange deals—all delivered in such a setting—only serve to undermine Zelensky's credibility. saying these things in front of the U.S., a country with global intelligence and the one providing Ukraine with support, makes no sense. It’s clear he us not being honest, and it hurt his credibility.

The fact is Zelensky doesn’t really want peace because if the war ends, he might lose his position as president. Peace would also mean he’d have to answer for his actions and decisions during the war. Ukraine deserves a leader who can handle these challenges wisely and work toward real peace and stability.

raumdeuter:
Zelensky had a deal on paper where he exchanged minerals for US support and protection but he let his ego get in front of him.

You are here to beg for the lives of your people and you still want to talk smack. Now he has lost even the American Senators who would have been on his side, No one will watch Zelensky talk like that to US number 1 and 2 and still approve what he came for

He should have read the room, come there sign what he needs to and get out which is what gives his people a chance to live

Imagine a war hawk like Lindsey Graham cannot even support Zelenksy again and now calling for his removal or apology
If you lose Lindsey Graham, you lose Marco Rubio people who have supported you in the past then how do you plan to wage the war

You are letting Democrats who have an ax to grind with Trump but will sleep in their cozy American bed in their cities tonight goad you into antagonizing the Trump ticket and Trump admin to satisfy their own daily TDS fetish while your people are being bombarded this hour and getting killed just because you always let your ego get in the way

IjeBos:
If Russia stopped killing Ukrainians and left Ukraine, do you think Ukraine would keep fighting Russia?
So if Russia wanted the war to stop, why doesn't Russia just stop?

Your logic seems very broken
