We could say the same thing about Putin, all he has to do is *leave. That’s why people fight wars, & that’s why diplomacy exists. But calling for a ceasefire - which Putin & Trump did & demanded of Zelensky - is a call to negotiate not surrender. The Ukrainians are never, ever surrendering.

Somehow I seriously believe if they had so much as a moment of belief they would find something the combined League of Justice with Patel, Bongino, Gabbard, Vance, Ed Martin & US Attorney Alina Habba would investigate it to the ends of the earth & yes determine the exact number.

I’m amazed I’m saying this but to his credit Trump hasn’t requested much less demanded that.

Yes good news, the WH press Secretary knows nothing about any body count & appears to be covering for the Clintons.

ZeroHedge is now part of the WH press & is attending the WH press conferences. Yesterday they asked WH Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt about the Clinton body count.

Zelensky has agreed to everything - mineral deal, ceasefire, talks in Istanbul, meeting with Putin.

No it doesn’t. But Bongino used to rail & slam tables over this & now he’s seen the evidence & he’s totally convinced it was suicide. Patel too. I have no idea what anyone reasonably suspicious could possibly expect at this point. Incompetence is a real thing.

Tin-foil hatters, I mean real ones, would raise how Epstein said “I was Donald Trump’s closest friend” to say Trump offer Epstein. Realists would point out these men were incapable of friendship & were just using each other for the hope of financial gain.Epstein mostly seemed annoyed by Trump’s cloying in those videos which are well known now.

It’s all me, amigo.

Anyone see the Patel-Bongino presser on the Epstein suicide. Great stuff. On Bartiromo’s show no less. What is the conspiracy crowd thinking.

The ceasefire was Putin’s idea. That’s why Zelensky was arguing with Trump & Vance. Zelensky pointed out that Putin had already broken a ceasefire agreement while Trump was President. But Zelensky agreed to the proposal. Then Trump said only *he could accomplish the ceasefire. After a 2 hour phone call Trump claims that Putin has agreed to negotiations towards a ceasefire, instead of the ceasefire, which is where two parties cease firing while they negotiate. And whereas Trump had been threatening getting super cereal with Russia by increasing sanctions, he came off the phone call offering more glorious trade deals with a country whose economy is most comparable to Mexico’s. It’s like watching some old person re-up their subscription to a telemarketing scam on their landline. The amusing or hopeful thing is Ukraine’s accepting of the investment deal might keep the US supporting them & might further lead to Americans on the ground there.

Charges dropped vs the mayor of Newark. Per Trump's country club outside counsel turned DOJ official A. Habba.

If there's a deeper red state than Mississippi I'd be curious of what it is. The Senator, Hyde-Smith, is as absolutely a devotee of Trump as you will find. As of May 8th MS still hadn't gotten a response. I think that's still the case but I'm genuinely curious if you have other news. When Hyde-Smith asked Noem about it she was told it just goes to show why FEMA should be abolished.

DHS Sec. Noem says the administration plans to eliminate Fema altogether and is working on a plan for that.

The Trump administration is doubling states' financial burden for disaster relief. Newsmax

The conspiracy theories all get blown apart about now because it's pretty much dogma for maga followers to believe in the classic 'left wing did it' conspiracies. Some things Preisedent Q and noted socialist/leftists Dan Bongino, Pam Bondi, Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel are currently hiding. - What did they do with Bin Ladin's body? - Epsten didn't do it to himself. - Clinton body count - ZeroHedge actually was admitted to the WH press briefing on this today and lo & behold WWH press secretary Caroline Leavitt covered it up! - Aliens. - Beghazi! - The Jan 6th FBI plants. - The 9/11/01 inside job y'all. - At least we flushed out that pesky JFK problem, I mean we released a lot of CIA/FBI/dEEPsTATE work against the USSR having nothing to do with Kennedy but he whatevs. Actually nm this is still on the agenda because as we all know the cover-up of the cover-up has begun.

Just to follow up on my point above this answer by Trump (in spoilers) is a good example of what I'm talking about. Aside from all the legitimate craziness going on here, one key aspect is Trump - someone out of office talking to a foreign enemy dictator - just takes Putin's POV at face value, believes it, ingests it like cud, then spits it out like fact. This is worse than being a vegetable, this is like a sort of kudzu or weed that just wraps itself into the very root of American foreign policy. (I'm glad to post Biden's).

I'm glad to, I still think the USSC handled that decision properly. If Simion wants to avail himself of constitutional options in Romania he should go right ahead, but he lost by ~5% off the vote not ~500 votes like Gore.

If you're talking about the Biden 'as veg' claim. Yes actually I don't get angry online anymore, or try no to, but that's a problem for me. It was also a problem for me when Trump's WH physician invented medical evaluations, and it was a problem for me when Trump went to Walter Reed for unknown reasons, it was a problem for me when Trump wrote his own medical report under his physician's signature during the 2016 campaign, and it was a problem for me when Trump's physicians required he take a mental health / dementia evaluation. So to me the solution here is Congress ought to pass a law requiring candidates and presidents disclose their medical information. But guess what the maga-GOP will never go for that and I suppose neither will the Dems. Which brings me back to why I don't really get angry online anymore. But I'll say this much, give me the Biden 'as veg' answers over Ukraine in his debate with Trump rather than those of the Bad Man who Is Orange. Still then Biden was more intellectually, morally and emotionally capable.

No doubt it's coming, that's the nationalist-populist M.O.

A campaign promise is ‘I’ll protect social security’ or ‘read my lips no new taxes’.

What Putin wants is not an end to the war or some xyz concession from Ukraine, he wants the US to halt aid to Ukraine. I will give Trump credit for not doing that so far, even so far as canceling Hegseth’s own illegal attempt to do so. I really hope I was wrong on this. It would please me to see Trump finally respond to the disrespect & humiliation Putin has piled on him & the USA by giving Ukraine what they need to March to the Azov.

I was responding to someone who said that the ‘24 hours’ promise was insignificant. Today Trump continues to try to wheedle some deal out if a guy who had no desire to end the war or even have peace in the sense of an agreement. He’s asked for no concessions from Putin while he continues to make absurd promises to his followers. He’s been doing this for 5 months. The more absurd the promises & hyped the pronouncements the more Trump has to offer from the ***US to seek what he wants. It makes a 1-10 rookie fantasy manager look good.

Worked up. We’re 10 years into this thing.
