Trump says US "will not put up" with perceived resistance from Zelensky on peace deal

Zelensky knew from the moment he was invited to the whitehouse that it was a setup and he went anyway.. Not to try to convince Trump to help Ukraine but to show the world just how big a puppet Trump is for Putin and it continues to show over and over and over.

Problem is that I think Trump is Traitor enough to turn the US weapons on Ukraine.....

President Donald Trump says the US “will not put up” with perceived resistance by President Volodymyr Zelensky to ending the war with Russia, making clear his enmity toward the Ukrainian leader remains after a fracas in the Oval Office on Friday.

“This is the worst statement that could have been made by Zelenskyy, and America will not put up with it for much longer!” Trump wrote on Truth Social, citing an AP headline that quoted Zelensky over the weekend saying an end to the war is “still very, very far away.”

“It is what I was saying, this guy doesn’t want there to be Peace as long as he has America’s backing and, Europe, in the meeting they had with Zelenskyy, stated flatly that they cannot do the job without the U.S. – Probably not a great statement to have been made in terms of a show of strength against Russia. What are they thinking?” Trump went on.

American officials have continued their harsh criticism of Zelensky three days after the blowup in the Oval Office. National security adviser Mike Waltz said earlier Monday that Zelensky needed to express regret before talks could resume on a rare earths mineral deal.

Another vehicle attack in Germany...

BERLIN (AP) — A driver rammed a car into a crowd Monday in the southwestern German city of Mannheim, and authorities said two people were killed and ten others injured, five of them severely.

A 40-year-old German from the nearby state of Rhineland-Palatinate was detained and in a hospital after being injured, State Interior Minister Thomas Strobl of Baden-Württemberg, where Mannheim is based, told German news agency dpa.

Police would not immediately characterize the incident as an attack. In a statement Monday night they wrote that “at this stage of the investigation, no political background is assumed.”

One Word Describes Trump - Patrimonialism

In its governmental guise, patrimonialism is distinguished by running the state as if it were the leader’s personal property or family business. It can be found in many countries, but its main contemporary exponent—at least until January 20, 2025—has been Vladimir Putin. In the first portion of his rule, he ran the Russian state as a personal racket. State bureaucracies and private companies continued to operate, but the real governing principle was Stay on Vladimir Vladimirovich’s good side … or else.

he is a democrat isnt he?

he is wasting his breath and energy. None of what the Dems say matter to the Rs... I know it needs to be publicly said but it wont do anything.

Democrats are so powerless its sad.

Trump will neve lose Power in these 4 years and he will do everything he can to have Putin style "elections" to show that he is "democratic"

'I hope Trump deports you!!!' note on Cazuelas Mexican Restaurant receipt sparks outrage

Columbus' Cazuelas Mexican Restaurant was the location of a racist comment written on a recent receipt by a customer.

www.dispatch.com

She is (well, was) a realtor for Century 21 and lost her shit when she couldn't double up coupons. Skipped the tip and wrote that on the receipt. She got outed in less than and hour, claimed her card was stolen, and has since scrubbed her social media and has been canned by Century 21. And now her name is tied to this story on the Internet in perpetuity. So she will never work again around here or anywhere in her industry.


Went out to eat the food of a culture you hate and it cost you everything because you're a twat. Well done.

Hey Pat, I think you're smart enough to know why Canadians are booing the US national anthem, but if you actually came out and explained it to your viewers, you would likely lose the majority of those viewers. A little over three minutes of saying stuff without really saying anything below.

it's not that fucking hard.

We booed your leader and administration who are threatening our very sovereignty.
And honestly, Americans should be doing the same.


if you are an American who are joking about this or supporting it. you can fuck all the way off as well.
