The Ukrainians have made the roads in Donetsk a little dangerous apparently.


Oh yes, those dragon teeth are something. Sneaky AFU. In the daylight you have to slow down to get around them, and then the drones kill you. At night the Russians just floor it and have driven right into them. Same result.

Russians trying to make it down roads, it's like watching mice try to navigate a room full of glue traps. Just as sad but with more gore.

I guaran-fucking-tee you he recorded it.

Not only is it standard practice, people learned a long time ago that you always record Trump because he lies about everything.


Something his own lawyers had to resort to in order to attempt to keep things straight, even at that level. Lying is like breathing for 'the father of IVF'; constant, a function of him having a pulse.

Yup, got to a point he had to look overseas for money as no American bank wanted anything to do with him. Deutche Bank learned the hard way, like others. Then when they said get lost, here comes Putin and Friends with Russian money for the softheaded coward who has envied Russian authoritarianism since the 80s. Bah.

I hope Zelenskyy cajoled them into acting like Americans instead of cowards that look up to fascists. He knows what he's dealing with.

Not really. Surrender isn't a deal dipshit.

So the worst deal maker in the world was unable to follow through with ending a war with a single phone call. Real surprise, no? I mean he aced that Montreal Cognitive Test didn't he? Let's not forget that border wall and healthcare plan of his were huge successes. *snort* What happened? It's almost like being a lying piece of shit bent on sucking Putin off makes him untrustworthy; crazy huh?

And what happened to poor scared Zelenskyy being desperate for a peace deal? It's almost like he resents the previous extortion attempt and doesn't appreciate Trump siding with the invader. We had it on good troll authority he was looking for a way out, didn't care about saving his people from a Russian genocide. What happened?

Wait, what happened to poor scared Zelenskyy being desperate for a peace deal? It's almost like he resents the previous extortion attempt and doesn't appreciate Trump siding with the invader.

The dumb people think it’s about “democracy” even though the vast majority of Crimea and Donbas are ethnic Russians and want to go with Russia.
But for some reason Russia wouldn't let Ukraine hold UN-monitored elections in Ukrainian territory.
Using the same occupy and hold your own referendum policy we now know the people in Kursk want to join Ukraine.

All the bombed out leveled cities and butt raped women children and men wanna be Russians anyway.
Who knows, it might be true. Sometimes people vote for stupid things. But Russia made sure there would be no monitored voting including a reasonably popular option like futher autonomy within Ukraine. Russia wanted a low intensity conflict zone to prevent Ukrainian integration in the EU after it annexed Crimea.

It is very anti democratic to not allow the Kursk People’s Republic to determine their own future.

I’m sure @Young Grasshopper agrees, given the fact that Putin has said Russia is hopelessly outmatched by NATO.

All Trump wants out of ending the Russian war on Ukraine is to be the fake hero that did it no matter how badly Ukraine ends up holding the shitty end of the stick. His supporters will of course ignore the ugly details that Ukraine will have to accept a raw deal, as usual.

Trump also has a need to get revenge on Zelenskyy for any number of reasons including his infamous quid pro quo deal to get Zelenskyy to run a hoax investigation on a Biden father/son conspiracy that go whistled dead. Shades of Reagan doing an end around deal fixing an election for himself.

In what is almost certainly going to be a trend of smaller nations looking for more capable systems the Philippines wants to buy the Typhon battery we have deployed to their country.

https://www.ft.com/content/efd50e95-6d2e-45ea-97db-66d6b573a19e


The Philippines intends to buy intermediate-range missile launchers from the US, a plan likely to trigger more Chinese protests over Manila’s efforts to boost its defences.

Defence secretary Gilberto Teodoro said in an interview with the Financial Times that his country was looking at getting mid-range capability (MRC) launchers, which the US brought to the Philippines in April for two bilateral military exercises. “We do intend to acquire capabilities of such sort,” Teodoro said. “We will not compromise with our right to acquire any such kind of capabilities in the future within our territory.”

The April deployment of the launcher, also known as Typhon, was the first by the US of an intermediate-range missile system since the collapse of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty in 2019. The treaty barred the US and Russia from developing or deploying any nuclear or conventional missile systems with ranges between 500 and 5,500km. The launcher has remained in the Philippines since the exercises. Beijing has denounced both the initial deployment and its extension as “provocative” and “destabilising”.

Colonel Francel Margareth Padilla, spokesperson for the Armed Forces of the Philippines, said the military continued to train with the launcher, including practising its mobility, because Manila is “looking at trying to procure” the system. The comments come after Beijing criticised Manila over its defence modernisation and efforts to safeguard its maritime rights.

The Chinese complain all the time about our weapons sales in this part of the world.

It's what the underdogs always do when they can't keep up with the competition. Constantly stealing tech from the USA is a really bad way to get ahead in the world dominating business. The Chinese can copy our stuff to their their heart's content to make things seem like they're potent adversaries but what they can't copy is the American spirit, the way we fight war and the ways in which we adapt and innovate to meet the challenges our adversaries present us with.

I think it's pretty much gone for a lot of Trumpsters. That spirit got replaced with a lot of seething hate, fear and suspicion of their fellow Americans so that people like Trump and his ilk can, (as I transpose Trump's infamous quote) "poison the blood of good Americans" in order to seize power and keep it for himself and his oligarch treasury raiders.
