Are you going to continue defending criminals like you do or are you going to demand justice for the Ukrainian refugee and demand these criminals are taken off the streets?


Well to be fair I don't think the hardcore Ukraine maxers like Cope actually care about people, they care about a tacky yellow and blue flag and where the lines on the map end up being at the end. Oh and getting back at Russia either because they are personally connected to Ukraine in some way, or because they still have mental baggage from hiding under a desk because of Russia as a kid

You are equating those to Ronald Reagan? Interesting.

Then again you show that you side with leftist like Mearsheimer, Sachs, and the Silicon Valley cabal who control California.

I wonder why John Bolton (a person who has publicly bragged about planning coups and I am sure garners the wall of fame for some here) has disappeared off of X, the MSM and Times Radio?
He might be hanging out with Brennan and Clapper while our resident boomer neocons start a go fund me for him.

ISW, 8/25/25

Three and a half years into the SO;

quote:

Key Takeaways: Ukrainian forces continue to pressure the Russian penetration east and northeast of Dobropillya. The Russian military command has reportedly given up efforts to exploit the penetration toward Dobropillya, after Russia's infiltration tactics appear to have been unsuccessful in establishing enduring positions within this penetration.
Russian Prosecutor General Igor Krasnov is likely to become the Chairperson of the Russian Supreme Court, reportedly after Investigative Committee (Sledkom) Chairperson Alexander Bastrykin refused the Kremlin's offer to assume this position. Russian authorities recently detained Acting Kursk Oblast Vice Governor Vladimir Bazarov, likely as part of the Kremlin’s continued efforts to scapegoat local officials for Russian border security failures.
Ukraine’s Western partners continue to provide military aid to Ukraine, including through the purchase of US weapons and joint production ventures. Ukrainian forces recently advanced in northern Sumy Oblast and near Lyman and Pokrovsk. Russian forces recently advanced near Kupyansk, Lyman, Toretsk, Novopavlivka, and Velykomykhailivka and in western Zaporizhia Oblast.


ISW is reporting that the so-called breakthroughs were not successful.

ETA- typo corrected for concerned citizen.

The man had a point.

It’s very hard to follow Trump’s strategy, I support him and am still hopeful that his methods although extraordinary bring peace, but my confidence wanes.

I agree.

Bolton's a slimeball but he's right on this topic and searching his home for no reason is a chickenshite move.

They can be trusted to look out for their own interests, independently. Not each others. They will sell out each other the moment it becomes convenient to.


correct.

Well, Xi is 5'11", which is above average height and considered pretty tall. The international average male height is 5'7.5".

You're right about the second part, though.

But China would screw over Russia in an instant to grab Eastern Russia... and Russia knows this...

A Chinese born trader who lived in River Oaks had a brother in Shanghai who got the inquiries, which he filled. they hated doing business with Russians who would never meet agreed upon specs for commodities purchased. They would rather pay more and the deal actually be fulfilled to spec. This ended up costing them in Libya with two tankers to be loaded with No. 6 fuel oil after Qaddafi was overthrown. The ships sat there for two weeks without any effort to start pumping the oil to them
