- Putin could have been prevented from attacking if Biden didn't push war.

As far as stupid, fictional stories go... you need a new one. That one has been demolished here literally dozens of time with facts and history.

"His revelation soon came in the guise of a Truth Social post. "There was no reason for Putin to be shooting missiles into civilian areas, cities and towns, over the last few days," Trump mused.

"It makes me think that maybe [Putin] doesn't want to stop the war."

For months, Zelenskyy and European leaders have struggled to deliver that message to Trump. Now, in part thanks to Trump's unlikely pilgrimage to the Vatican for Pope Francis's funeral, they may see new hope for their intervention before the Ukraine war is lost for good.

This could, of course, all come to naught.

The US president is notoriously mercurial. His thinking may change the next time he speaks with Putin, or with one of his own advisers deeply sceptical of Ukraine.

Trump's post mentioning Putin was mainly dedicated to attacking the New York Times' White House correspondent, whom he derided as "liddle" and a "very biased and untalented writer".

And Trump left the Vatican before a second meeting with Zelenskyy was supposed to take place."

He may just be, "abjectly stupid". Like his culitists.

"Holder told CNN that Patel's social media post violates this policy.

"Whatever the issues with what the judge did, they're trying to maximize intimidation," Holder said in a statement to CNN.

"The arrest is the point," Craig Mastantuono, an attorney for Dugan, told CNN in an interview. "It's a clear departure of the policy. There was no threat to public safety. She was not afforded the chance to come in and offer her side of the story."

First they came for the Judges... aw, what's the use??

Trumpers want their Krazy Kult King, not the Law, to be ruling this country.

It's always the Victim's Fault according to Republicans.... especially when their rich authoritarian Daddies tell them it is.

The meeting between Trump and Zelenskyy would have had the late Pope Francis "filled with hope," the last U.S. ambassador to the Vatican said."

HOT NEW SINGLE - Vladimir, STOP!

Broken clocks... Trump is proof that there are people even worse than Mr Grassley.

"As CSIS has reported before, "aid to Ukraine" is a misnomer because 90 percent of military aid is spent in the United States. Of aid overall, 60 percent is spent in the United States, about 25 percent is spent in Ukraine, and the final 15 percent is spent globally."

... spends his time here pimping for a 'man' who is a liar; convicted of Fraud and Sexual Assault... and according to the sworn testimony of literally dozens of his own Trumper Top Aides is a traitor to his country.

Not to mention his wrecking of the economy of said country; endangering her with reckless handling of our trade and security nation partners.

And starving to death some families and children around the world in a mindless quest that has saved, according to Conservative experts... less than one tenth of one percent of the Fed budget, if anything at all.

Then, we are supposed to take anything 1Nut says about any Dem being even close to that sort of dishonor and unpatriotic, and illegal, actions?

F him and his obnoxious desires to some day... one day, perhaps far in the future... actually 'own him a lib'.

Because really, that's all he's here for; not even a very sharp tool, either. About what you would expect from Donald, but I am disappointed in Vlad, who is definitely evil but not stupid, and holds Trump's puppet strings like a Master Puppeteer.

swarthy was funnier!

no problemo... the shock and awe news cycle is hard to keep up with!

Donnie Dollhands should be in the cell next to his.

How many people worldwide suffered and how many children died to save less 1/10th of 1 percent of Fed spending?

They owe it all to Trumpers.

Do ya'll have a License to beat that dog JBelle?

"DOGE's verified savings have been less than 1/10 of 1% of federal spending," says Jessica Riedl, a senior fellow and budget expert at the conservative Manhattan Institute.

"There have been embarrassing accounting errors, lots of public statements that turned out to be false or misleading, or actions slapped back by the courts."

Nazification of America is hard work!

Oh wowser.... Rogers' Jags get the best player in the draft; the Dual Threat.

Ukraine was wearing that short skirt, and Vlad is too manly a man not to rape her and kill her children and family.

So, obviously Ukraine's Fault(tm).

Hard to imagine anyone paying him.... even in rubles.

He's like the Stuart Smalley of the Retort.

"I have nothing to do with Russia..."

"Except those decades they bailed me out when no banks would finance me because I suck... or all those properties I still sell to Russian Oligarchs to launder their dirty money."

Say... isn't that what the rapist told the cops?

"I didn't kill, her so it's OK!".

Obligatory:

He's the brain damaged doing brand damage.

The Amb to Norway was in the WH today, rolling his eyes as Trump talks about Ukraine.

btw....Eye-rolling Trump is something Trumpers should be practicing for when they give him the, "GW, who?" treatment a couple of years from now.

(unless he's the AC; then things are going to turn 'beautiful' for him pretty soon, with a treaty in the ME and the Market recovering)
