That’s between them, neither one is my country.

It was Russia who did the invading, correct?

"The news comes as US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth told members at a Nato summit that it was "unrealistic" to expect Ukraine to return to its pre-2014 borders."

It's a no win deal with this Putin mess. What's the options? Wait for Putin to die naturally? Kill Putin? Invade Russia? Cut off military aid for Ukraine? Stay the status quo? Give land for peace? There's no chance Vlad is going to wake up one day and say I was wrong to invade and just hit the road with no hard feelings kinda like the Brits did in the US in 1812. I think Russia has been wounded in terms of deaths and loss of equiptment be it old and outdated. At some point this war needs to end or escalate into something greater and much more deadly. Even if Putin keeled over from a heart attack today chances are he has comrades ready to take over his wishes. Russia is a cesspool going back a thousand years. They are so paranoid of invason coupled with their quasi soviet/czar system of injustice and violence to settle everything internal and external.

Probably been posted 2 years ago in the Ukraine thread but oh well.....

They have been going at it for 3 years. Ukraine and Russia have been basically in a stalemate for 2 of those years. We have had sanctions on Russia for three years and they have been able to circumvent due to China, Iran and North Korea. Oh and other countries too but just pointing out the ones everybody hates. We have had sanctions on Iran since 1979. Cuba since probably 1960. I don't believe any country had a revolution or overthrew their leader due to sanctions so lets just say they won't work on Russia. I mean if it hasn't happened in Cuba and they are located 60 miles from Florida, it aint working in Russia

So knowing that, we have only a few options.

1. Continue the proxy war. Send money and munitions to Ukraine to simply be a pain in the ass. Now this would be fine in 1990 but we are not there. We are 30 trillion in debt.
2. Admit Ukraine into NATO and join the fight. In a sense start WW3 and hope we don't have a nuclear exchnage
3. Get a ceasefire like in Korea. Ukraine loses territory. Russia gains. Each side sucks it up. We spent billions of dollars so Ukraine wouldn't be absorbed into Russia. So win there. Rest is kissing your sister. Russia I guess wins to a degree but suffer long term

That's it. If anybody has a better idea that won't result in us losing Americans or spending money we certainly don't have I am open to it.

This should have been done 2 years ago however we needed to ensure the money flowed. Z has admitted they only received 50%. So somebody got the other but we won't talk about that cause you know trying to account for our taxpayer money is evil.

Federal Judge Allows Trump Admin Buyout Program to Continue

February 12, 2025

A federal judge has removed a block he had previously placed on the Trump administration’s buyout program for federal workers, denying unions’ request for a preliminary injunction.

Massachusetts Judge George O’Toole said in a Feb. 12 order that the plaintiffs lacked standing and the court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over their claims.

There's no such thing as a "Palestinian". Learn history.

I see Trump forgot to swear in Tulsi at her swearing in ceremony, walked out with her smiling. So sad to see our elders age poorly

**rocknblues81** · 02.12.25, 05:47 PM

McConnell lost. He is going to obstruct as much as he can, but the writing is on the wall for him. The pressure needs to be on to get him to go away. Retire you old bag of bones

**BREW CREW** · 02.12.25, 05:50 PM

A very nice swearing in of Tulsi Gabbard.

The TDS folks are preying for a Trump/Musk division. It's desperation from the left Biden probably hasn't been able to even change on his own for years. So them questioning is in charge or whatever is laughable.

I mean, if Trump is "orange Hitler" and the dumbest guy alive, shouldn't they be happy that Elon has influence? I mean, anyone has to be better than a modern day Hitler, right?

Trump and Elon are not above question, but the left doesn't have much of a leg to stand on right now.

Their mad because Trump is getting through more than what he did in his first term. I personally don't even agree with everything, but the neocons aren't going to have the same influence they did the first term around.

Stars flee Kennedy Center groups after Trump seizes chair

President Trump’s ascension to chair of the Kennedy Center on Wednesday led to multiple departures from the Washington, D.C., institution.

Trump last week announced he was replacing several members of the Kennedy Center’s board of trustees and would name himself chair. On Wednesday, the new board elected Trump as chair of the board.

Maybe after the Ukraine/Russia stuff, and the Greenland takeover, and the Canada/Mexico trade agreements, and the ownership of Gaza, and the renaming of bodies of water and mountains, we'll get to some lowering of groceries. You know, the supposed main factor that got him elected.
America First! ...well after we take of some other stuff first. Currently, it's in between the construction of a new Ballroom in the White House and repainting Air Force One.
