We suspected this was the reason Ukraine’s access to Starshield was restricted. But to see it from senior officials in this reporting is still utterly unconscionable.
Let’s be absolutely clear about what this means. The Trump Administration deliberately restricted technology Ukraine relies on to intercept Russian drones and ballistic missiles. It made it harder for Ukraine to defend itself and easier for Russia to carry out its deadly attacks against Ukrainian civilians.
They knew exactly what was at stake. They knew that more Russian drones and missiles would get through, allowing Russia to kill even more Ukrainians. And yet they went ahead anyway.
This is a deliberate weaking of Ukraine’s defenses that only Russia will benefit from. It is a betrayal of our ally that this Administration cannot wash its hands of.
The American people deserve to know who made this decision, why they made it, and how they can possibly justify putting more innocent Ukrainian lives in the crosshairs of Putin’s war machine.

Gorbachev predicted they wouldn’t have to fire a single shot they would destroy America from within.
That seemed impossible until a weak, amoral and feckless man was installed, with a pension for young girls. They found their perfect mark.

Trump is so angry that Ukrainians won’t surrender and die quietly so he and his friends can make money with Putin.

It’s crazy that we are so far down the list of indecency that it’s not even part of the conversation that we are paying for Trump to fly all over the country everyday for months to campaign. How many millions does each trip cost taxpayers?

Tillis on Patriot Missiles: I want to know who in the government is saying no to those transfers. This is not even taking it from our inventories. This is allowing it to be transferred from other European nations. Whoever that person is has the blood on their hands every bit as much as Vladimir Putin.

Donald Trump canceled his scheduled Oct. 16 deposition in his lawsuit against the BBC because of "matters of national importance."
The BBC alerts the judge that those matters were: a rally in Dalton, Ga. and a fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago.
ALT The BBC submits this Notice to raise newly available information regarding the “matters of national importance” that Plaintiff claimed kept him from his scheduled deposition. As the BBC now knows, on October 16, Plaintiff attended and addressed a campaign rally in Dalton, Georgia, alongside Plaintiff’s favored candidates in Georgia’s upcoming U.S. Senate and gubernatorial elections. Plaintiff subsequently traveled to his resort club and residence at Mar-a-Lago for a Republican National Committee fundraising event.

Dear America,
This is right after the mid-terms.
Don't vote for the people who are going to hurt you.
Cruelty is the point: Rachel Maddow is reporting 10 million Americans will be kicked off Medicaid on Jan 1, and 20 million more will be ruined by skyrocketing ACA premiums.
The Trump regime's timing is pure barbarism. It was designed to brutalize regular Americans by pulling the rug out from under people the second the midterms ended and all the votes were locked in — with ZERO fucks given to the human suffering it will cause.
Forcing working class families to choose between buying food and losing life-saving healthcare isn't just a cynical Republican policy decision, it's a cruel and sadistic betrayal of 30 million Americans.

Fox News chief political analyst Brit Hume:
Trump cuddling up to Vladimir Putin at this moment and turning his back on President Zelensky, I don’t think this plays well. Americans can’t stand Putin.
Rich Niro retweeted
And yet Trump continues to claim that Zelenskyy is the one blocking peace. Surreal and tragic.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov claimed that any peace deal acceptable to Moscow and Washington would mean the end of Zelensky’s “regime” and “of him personally.”

The World Has Had Enough of Trump. So Has America’s Right-Wing Press. The Wall Street Journal, National Review, Mike Pence and six Republican senators all said it in the same week: Trump has sided with Putin.
You have heard Europe say that for nine years. You have never heard Murdoch's paper say it.
Here is what changed 👇

Do you get it now, finally? Trump doesnt give a damn about human life, be it American or Ukrainian. He is fine with Russia slaughtering defenseless civilians.
This is your America, MAGA.
⚡️️What Russia's doing to Ukraine is 'fine,' Trump says.
"Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven't been doing much," Trump said, hours after a Russian drone strike in a public park killed six people, including two children.

It’s clear that @PeteHegseth has blood on his hands
The Pentagon is delaying the delivery of Patriot missiles to Ukraine—missiles that have already been paid for by allies, reports *The Kyiv Independent*.
A shipment of missiles, fully funded by Ukraine’s allies (including through NATO mechanisms), is awaiting Hegseth’s signature; however, the Pentagon chief is deliberately blocking the process.
The Ukrainian leadership views this decision as another form of political pressure from Washington.

Trump has given Putin concession after concession -- ending aid to Ukraine, keeping Ukraine out of NATO, celebrating Putin with a red carpet summit, dissing Zelenskyy, wavering sanctions, disrupting intelligence sharing with Ukraine -- and Putin has never changed his position on continuing the war. Not one inch.

“The American president cannot understand why Zelensky and his people do not simply accept their situation and lie down under Russia’s tank treads.”
Humiliating and dangerous: Trump has now finally just made America an ally of the Kremlin and is aiding Putin in his war against an American friend and partner. Shameful betrayal of a US friend, and pathetic submission to a US enemy.

Trump admits that Russia is helping Iran to kill and maim American troops.
But just a “very little.”
This is a grotesque betrayal of US forces on the battlefield in this war—and their families.
The war that Trump launched.
No American Commander-in-Chief has sunk so low.
Trump: My decision on Russia is a very simple one. I don't want to do anything that will drive, foolishly, Russia away from the bargaining table.
Russia is doing very little, if anything, to help the Islamic Republic of Iran, compared to what they could be doing.
Zelenskyy is using Diesel Refineries in Russia as a target, knowing that these attacks are seriously hurting the world diesel markets, including those in the United States.
Farmers, ranchers, and businesses of all kinds are suffering greatly from this, but Russia is, nevertheless, sending, at a low price, millions of barrels of diesel to the World.
Zelenskyy doesn't care, and frankly, with all of the money that Europe is famously giving him, and that Crooked Joe Biden gave him in the past, he doesn't want to end this war, and probably never did.
He could have made a better deal two years ago than he can now. His country is in shambles, a large portion of his land is lost, his oceans and seas are gone, and his male population is low, wounded, and/or dead. I WANT THIS WAR END!

THIS IS A LIE. FAKE NEWS.
France isn’t burning because of immigrants.
The protests began with FRENCH STUDENTS furious over crumbling schools, overcrowded classrooms and teacher shortages—and exploded as French citizens joined them over the cost of living, wages, pensions, austerity and failing public services.
So Trump sees French citizens protesting their own government and does what he always does:
Find immigrants. Blame immigrants. Scare Americans.
He isn’t explaining what’s happening in France (because the ignorant piece of shit has no idea).
He’s exploiting it to manufacture fear 16 days before an election. Good luck!
