He is WEAK President. Always has been and always will be. He's only strong when picking on his own people and his allies. What a total puss.

February 12, 2025Feb 12 It is a bad deal for Ukraine. And it is a bade deal for Europe. Putin can be belligerent and Trump will give him all he wants. In the past USA has supported self-determination. Ukraine can aspire to NATO membership if that is what they want. Even Russia had joined PfP. Russia chose a different path. They chose war with Ukraine. Weak leaders give in to dictator demands. Trump is weak.
February 12, 2025Feb 12 Wow, even I was skeptical Trump would be able to solve the quandary Biden got us into this quickly, but damn if he isn't on the doorstep. What an amazing accomplishment. If this doesn't win him the nobel peace prize, they should just do away with the award.

Did Neville Chamberlain win the peace prize for the Munich Agreement, allowing Germany to annex the Sudetenland?

February 13, 2025Feb 13 Yeah, this deal is going nowhere. Ukrainians are ishing all over it right now. The Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs even went so far as to tweet their recognized map and land area of Ukraine. There was a US Army publication awhile back detailing the initial talks between Ukraine and Russia, which was to any normal person pretty much the closest thing they'd see to a POTUS brief on the matter, and the Army concluded that even with a peace deal, Russia would just do it again in five years. Ukraine knows this. A completely a totally inept presidential administration. Honestly I'm pretty sure the only reason Trump is pushing this is because he's got D envy that Obama got a Nobel prize so he wants to get one, too.
February 13, 2025Feb 13 Denmark's Defense Intelligence Service (DDIS) assessed that Russia may have the capabilities to launch a full-scale war against NATO in the next five years, which is consistent with ISW's assessments about Russian efforts to restructure and prepare its military and society for a future conflict with NATO in the medium to long-term. The DDIS published a declassified intelligence assessment on February 11 detailing the growing Russian threat to Denmark and NATO members.[8] The intelligence assessment notes that Russia is rebuilding its military to fight NATO on an equal footing, aided by financial and material support from the People's Republic of China (PRC), North Korea, and Iran. The intelligence assessment states that Russia's willingness to risk war with NATO may increase if European countries do not simultaneously build up their military capabilities in response to Russian capacity building efforts. The British International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) reported on February 12 that Europe spent $457 billion on defense in 2024, while Russia by itself spent $462 billion on defense in last year.[9] The DDIS intelligence assessment notes that Russia has not yet decided to launch a full-scale war against NATO but is expanding its military capabilities to maintain that option.[10] Russia is currently avoiding actions that could trigger NATO's Article 5 — the commitment to mutual self-defense — but may take greater risks if it perceives a shift in the balance of power in its favor. The DDIS assessment states that if Russia deems NATO weakened either militarily or politically it could be more willing to attack a European NATO member, particularly if Russia doubts US military support to Europe. The intelligence assessment notably warns that a cessation or freeze of the war in Ukraine on terms favorable to Russia will free up significant Russian military resources for their involvement in another future conventional conflict — consistent with ISW's long-standing assessment. The DDIS assessment outlines a timeline for Russia's growing military threat in the event of an end of hostilities in Ukraine: Russia could wage a local war against a neighboring state other than Ukraine within six months; Russia could credibly threaten NATO countries in the Baltic region in two years; and Russia could be prepared for a large-scale war in Europe, assuming NATO does not rearm at the same pace as Russia, in five years. ISW previously assessed that Russia's efforts to restructure the Russian military, revive the Moscow and Leningrad military districts, and create long-term mechanisms to militarize and radicalize Russian society against Western ideals and values indicate that Russia is preparing for a future conflict with NATO.[11]
February 13, 2025Feb 13 Lol what a bunch of globalist warmongering bull ish. So let me get this straight, we must continue the perpetual proxy war against Russia because maybe one day someone will write an article about Russia taking over the world and scare you chicken littles into sending more money into this cesspool. I thought we had basically debilitated their war fighting capabilities??? What happened to that? Now all of a sudden theyre just a few short years from invading all of NATO?? You keep eating ish sandwiches and never think critically about anything
February 13, 2025Feb 13 Weve sent over $200B, they admit they have no idea where most of it has gone. All the brainless Kamala voters endlessly shouted that we had to just keep this faucet on forever, because we were essentially removing Russias ability to fight a war and the money was well spent. Oh, oops, Russia might still invade NATO in 5 years. Are you scared yet? Better send more money to whoever is getting it now. We don't know who it is, but it's definitely effective at preventing a bigger war somehow

February 13, 2025Feb 13 Nothing like posting something devoid of intelligent analysis or facts when someone posts a quip from a non-profit dedicated solely for studying an analyzing modern warfare that is chaired by a retired Silver Star earned for valor in combat in Vietnam infantry paratrooper Ranger Tab having US Army General who is a national security contributor for Fox News and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Donald Trump. You know, the kind of guy who is a leftist fear monger.

February 13, 2025Feb 13 Trump will get exactly nothing from Putin. No more giving sheet to Obama about Crimea.

The best we did was Biden incompetently trying to do the right thing. Pretty sure the Overton window of good US foreign policy is closed.
