Russia is our enemy and any American citizen aiding and abetting their illegal war against Ukraine should face criminal charges. (Various Trumps, Elon, Jared, Witkoff, Ritter, Bessent, Gabbard…the list is long.)

We are past the point of political disagreement. We are witnessing a catastrophic collision between unchecked narcissism and obvious neurological decay. It is the most dangerous intersection in American history: a man with the absolute power of the Presidency and the absolute cognitive failure of a person no longer tethered to reality.

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

The Republicans who are complicit in Trump’s alliance with Putin will be remembered as the Butchers of Ukraine. @SenRonJohnson @LeaderJohnThune @RogerWicker
When I looked at this photo, I cried. Today, russians killed this baby. I have a one-year-old daughter. And russia has killed hundreds of children like this. Yes, russia is a terrorist state. But now, I want all Trump supporters to understand that they share responsibility for what has happened to this child and what is happening in Ukraine. The US Congress has approved funds and Patriot missiles for Ukraine, but Trump stopped them. Also, the United States once again didn't warn Ukraine about the russian attack. Not only have Trump and his supporters stopped helping Ukraine, but they have also sided with russia. The diesel deal was just the beginning. Now, the Trump administration is preparing to further ease sanctions against russia by lifting restrictions on russian oil tankers, gas, and certain companies and individuals. Also, Trump is exploring ways to take control of frozen russian assets. These assets should be used to compensate Ukraine for the destruction caused by russian aggression, but Trump wants to give them back to russia. Neither history nor humanity will be kind to Trump and his supporters. They will be remembered as the enablers of russian genocide against the Ukrainian people.

In 1994, Ukraine gave up the world’s third-largest nuclear arsenal on America’s word. This month, the president traded that word for a diesel deal with Putin. Watch what he does for Putin. It shows what he wants to do with his power over you. 👇🏼

Ten years ago today, she called him Putin's puppet. Ten years ago and she was right. Imagine these last ten years if more people had believed her. And in two weeks, we need to vote out every lawmaker who didn't believe her, including all those who did but didn't care.

Imagine if in 1943 FDR had decided that the US would stop helping Britain and instead would side with the Third Reich. That's a bit like what President Trump is now doing by cozying up to Russia as it tries to destroy Ukraine. Utterly shameful. A humiliating moment for the US.

I couldn't detest this man any more than I already do... Just over 8 hours after a devastating school shooting in Oregon, the POTUS posted this heartfelt message. He doesn't give a shit about any of you. Wake up America.
