They all disgust me. Trump is a Russian asset. My opinion is Trump, Putin, Kim Jon Un and China's Xi are all together in overtaking Europe Kiev, Greenland, Canada and many other countries.

🌟🇺🇸🇺🇦 “The Light That Outshone the Lies”

In a world full of shadows where tyrants still try,

Where bullies spread darkness and truth starts to cry,

A spark from the past flicked alive in the night—

It came from the families

who once chose to fight.

From the beaches of Europe to islands afar,

Came grandfathers brave like a blazing North Star.

They battled the fascists in World War Two,

Giving all that they had

so freedom stayed true.

Their courage now echoes in Ukraine today,

Where people stand tall in the very same way.

They push back the tyrant who barges and breaks,

Defending their future

no matter the stakes.

And here in America, truth needs us too—

For propaganda spreads fast like a virus will do.

FOX blares confusion, the right-wingers spin,

While people are struggling just trying to win:

To pay for their groceries, insurance, and heat,

With wages that buckle beneath corporate feet.

So the grandparents gathered with wisdom and grit,

“We know how to stand when the world throws a fit!”

They lifted their phones like their elders once fought,

But now with information—

the battlefield: thought.

They shared Indy media with clarity bright,

They commented boldly to spread the true light.

They reposted facts with the same steady flame

As the soldiers who fought

so the truth could remain.

They boosted the watchdogs, exposed every lie,

They challenged the fear that the spin doctors try.

From Meidas to scholars who check every claim,

They amplified truth

in democracy’s name.

And soon, like a beacon, their posts filled the feed,

A lantern of justice for all those in need.

They carried the legacy passed through the years—

A line of defenders

who conquer dark fears.

So honor these heroes of past and of now,

Who lift up the truth with a hand to the brow.

For democracy stands when the brave reunite—

From WW2 veterans

to grandfolks of light.

Stephanie's avatar

Exactly right! It’s a complete waste of his time. And pointless to talk about any ‘peace’ agreement where the US and Putin are the guarantors of the peace…. Putin started the damned war and Trump works for Putin… these are the same 2 countries that guaranteed Ukraine sovereignty in the 90’s when they gave up their nukes.

Zelensky would do better to ignore Trump and work with Canada, Uk, France and EU to ensure a just end to this Russian aggression.

R. MORRIS's avatar

My dream is for Zelenski to tell Trump to go fu*k himself, step before the news microphones and cameras to thank the US for its past assistance, then announce his intention to continue the war until Russia bleeds to death thanks to his military's intelligence and tactical superiority.

Rob Jonas's avatar

The countries of Europe had better step up now. If the Ukraine is forfeited to Putin, this will encourage him to engage in further aggression. The European countries rolled over for Hitler, until he grew too aggressive. Will they roll over for Putin? I might also mention that appeasing Hitler actually led to WW2. The Orange menace and the clueless MAGA sycophants forget that the United Stares was eventually forced into WW2. Of course if things get really bad in Europe, you can plan t/rump rolling over for Putin to the point he will likely give up American territory to appease him.

Unfortunately I am skeptical about Europe

To begin with they don't have the power in weapons

Second, in a way they are bound by NATO

Three, they will never send there own troops, it is a SELF PRESERVATION.

Ukraine is running out of fighters/soldiers,

But Putin will not stop

The Baltic states will be next, they are already very anxious, even though they are members of the NATO

DT is an embarrassment to the USA and the perfect example of the worst in human behavior. His lies continue in mass social media which continues to divide this messed up country. When will the madness stop ! Where are the laws to protect the innocent civilians of the USA. And then there is the Epstein situation a coverup of disgusting proportions. Let's air the Jack Smith conversation and bring this SOB and all his enablers down, hard and fast!

Again, impeachment without conviction for the crimes committed would be a meaningless waste of time and $. The gutless Republicans won't do it despite the corporate media beginning to suggest they're starting to separate themselves from Trump.

How many times is Trump and his people disrespecting Zelinskyy is it going to take before he finally wises up and stops trusting this man to do anything that he promises or anything and Ukraine's best interest? I understand he's desperate but this man is just playing with him 😤 it's all a game to Trump and his people 🤬

Camille Kelly's avatar

I think he knows exactly what Trump is doing but for the sake of diplomacy, he plays along so as careful not to alienate any sympathetic Americans or favors for his country. This is a very intelligent man, who has the dignity and composure to play whatever game is necessary to save Ukraine. He is no one's fool.

Exactly... the purse strings (no matter how thin now), is still technically attached to Congress. And 1 bad ruling by the unSupreme Court could shift laws so that DT could declare global war all on his own.
