Probably the most often of the bunch but still not that often.

See, this is the issue with the UKuck crowd. I actually disagree with those 3 posters on a frick ton of things. To be a Ukraine supporter you have to be in lock step on everything. Essentially it's modern day liberalism where if you don't check all the boxes you're the enemy.

I've repeatedly said I don't find JB's Twitter sources compelling. I don't think Putin is saving Christianity like Winston. Really the only place I know i definitely align with any of the posters you listed were what we think the ultimate outcome will be, who we think is currently winning, and the fact that Ukraine is corrupt and has probably misused a significant amount of the aid we sent.

you carefully say things that mistake what people post and twist it to attack them just as you did to me. You lied buddy and I called you out this time.


So you not being precise with your language is me lying? Lmfao that's retarded.

You can still answer that yes or no question and regain a sliver of credibility, which is more than you deserve.

Please take note that this poster refuses to say yes or no to a question about whether or not he believes something.

Not if its true or not. Just if he believes its true.

What a vile and disgusting human. Totally dishonest.

U.S. Congresswoman Victoria Spartz, of Ukrainian descent, has called for “giving land to Russia” to end the war and urged Ukrainians not to vote for Zelensky in the upcoming elections.

In an interview with The Telegraph, Spartz, the only Congress member born in Ukraine, explained: "I don’t understand how Ukraine can be in a position to demand land retention. If they had won the war, it would be a different story."

Spartz emphasized that there are no easy solutions, and wars should be ended "as quickly as possible." She added, “If it drags on for too long, it usually doesn’t end well for democracies."

The congresswoman sharply criticized Zelensky for his behavior during a visit to the White House, accusing him of "doing a disservice to the Ukrainian people" and "insulting the American president" following a well-known confrontation with Trump in the Oval Office. Spartz reportedly "despises" Zelensky, stating, "They will have elections, and if Ukrainians re-elect him, they will lose the rest of their country."

While supporting Donald Trump’s decision to negotiate with Vladimir Putin, Spartz made it clear that she believes Putin should "never be trusted."

Dear Victoria, let us be the first to congratulate you on your upcoming entry on the 'Myrotvorets' kill list.

I'm sort of curious about this myself. What will the ultimate outcome be? On the main point of:

Will Ukraine emerge from this as a sovereign state with the ability to enter into alliances, elect their own leader, and provide for their own defense?

Or will they end up as another Belarus?

Mate, I'm not offended that you're betraying me to try and save face with the Ukraine fellas on here.

Disappointed, but not offended.

Kremlin panics as Russian Urals crude oil price nears crucial $50 mark

by Yana Prots April 7, 2025 7:34 PM

The Kremlin on April 7 announced it is “closely monitoring” oil markets after the price of its key export grade, Urals crude, plunged towards the $50 mark.

“We are very closely monitoring the situation, which is currently characterized as extremely turbulent, tense, and emotionally overloaded,” Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told Interfax.

Peskov attributed the price decline to "the US decision to introduce tariffs for most countries in the world."

Urals crude fell to $52.76 per barrel at the Baltic port of Primorsk on Friday, according to Argus Media data cited by Bloomberg.

This is well below the $70 per barrel benchmark used for Russia's 2025 budget planning.

With oil and gas revenues accounting for nearly 30% of budget proceeds in January-February, according to government data cited by Bloomberg, the price decline poses significant fiscal challenges.

A price collapse could destabilize Russia's federal budget, as military expenditures for the Ukraine conflict have driven government spending sharply upward in early 2025.

If price fall below the $50 mark, it would push Russia's key oil export to its weakest level in nearly two years.
