Reporter to Kushner & Witkoff during Ukraine summit: "I know there's a reluctance to talk about Greenland today, but what value do these commitments have on the very day that at the highest levels of govt in Washington they are talking about seizing the sovereign territory of a fellow NATO member?"

The shittiest Ukraine's allies ever.

Ambassador Ken Fairfax (ret)@portlandken.bsky.social

During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

On Jan 20 we walk out everywhere. Resistance doesn’t need permission. It needs to confront power. A year into Trump 2.0, billionaires and big oil win. Midterms will limit MAGA so 2026 is the cash-out. We refuse. On Jan 20, feminists pull labor, money, consent. See you in the streets. #FreeAmerica

Why would they invite USA. Why not just have Russia there. It would be more direct. Also this talk about Greenland is getting very dangerous. Gonna have to add to my survival supplies this week.

Neither of those fucks can be trusted. Until they exclude them entirely, this is nothing but theatre. Neither of them have been elected to do this job and they only there to ensure Trump's and only Trump's interests are advanced.

I worry that Ukraine will be worse than betrayed by the U.S. What a disgrace that Steve Witkoff & Jared Kushner are the U.S. special envoys; they will undermine Ukraine. Both are billionaire handmaidens for Trump & Putin. They serve corruption & their own avarice for profits.

Lol, dear Lord, the sentient Elf-on-the-Shelf is now doing this among his many other duties? Again, what the fuck are his qualifications besides being Mr. Ivanva and Trump's bag man?

This reporter started with a great question, then completely ruined it by asking 4 or 5 other questions to different panelists before anyone could respond, so that they could all jump in and answer the easiest question and not the first one. The press is absolutely fucking useless.

It's a good question but it doesn't go far enough. Both the US and Russia guaranteed Ukraine's security in the Budapest Memorandum in 1994 after Ukraine gave up their nuclear weapons. What do any of these commitments mean to dictators?

Lord that's a great question. Let's have some of those European journalists here please. PS that was a terrible answer from Starmer. No wonder the UK voters are sick of him already.

Ok we need law reform, no elected officials can hire their family whether immediate or in-laws. Also no family members of elected officials can benefit from government contracts, corporate subsidies, or bailouts.

Starmer did well to start, but there was no reason to add that shit at the end about us being allies. That wasn’t the question…quit babying Trump world leaders!

Jesus, the fucking state of Keith Starmer here. He's a pathetic worm in literally any given situation. Its so embarrassing to have these people in charge.

The problem with reporters idle their questions are to wordy and that was a multiple questions. Your not going to get a satisfactory answer.

We shouldn't even be up there - Kushner and Witkoff work for russia not the US and have 0 authority. We signed nothing we'll do nothing we're not gong to defend NATO we're going to attack it - the committments are completely worthless

As a swede i support my neighbours 🇩🇰! If the Donald "Duck" Trömp Invades an allie. The Danish people will probably fight back! We know. The Dan7sh people is Swedens old arch enemy. They have killed our Kings in the past. But hey, now were in 2020! Or? Stay out of trouble 😡! #ProudSWETaxPayer

I dont ever want to criticize another country's leader because the world knows our country has the shame of Trump...but just once can Starmer channel a little of the iron lady grit.

Kushner is neither an elected official, nor a envoy, nor an employee of the state dept. He has no security AFAIK. He is there solely as a representative of the Trump Org's business interests.

They shouldn't they want it now I have reason to believe technology hardware software driveware delivery double to Greenland from German man point of you you have less than firepower but years of bites mices and bugs bags get it-tech general fire power i want to see German say yes we want it but i d

Take Maduro, lower his IQ, add a few more psychological disorders, paint him burnt orange and he could be Trump. It's a fucking joke that Trump went after him like he's cleaning up our hemisphere.

The US administration is bullying small nations to their will. Not much force needed. In 1983, it sent a force into Grenada and assassinated the PM - US didn't like the democrarically elected socialist government. Bay of Pigs, Cuba. Spectacular fail. Nasty US habit invading small sovereign nations.

No word salad, "we're working with the US 24/7", I think that it means they will help Trump abduct penguins if he wants to invade Greenland.

I thought that the mention of penguins made obvious that it's a joke 😋 Yes it's word salad and the UK prime minister didn't mean that he would assist Greenland invasion, but if taken literally his world salad involuntarily means "we'll help the US doing that" (his escape attempt ends as an own goal)

Well, if Trump is a king, Kushner is a prince (even if "in law"). King Charles' son, after all, does speak for him. Clear now?

Huh. I would have asked: "Mr. Kushner, you are using US diplomacy to enrich yourself and the Trump family. What makes you think a sniveling asshole like you should be negotiating peace when you have no official position in the government?"

It's a good start, but no. The next journalist should have backed the first one and said: please answer my coleague's question first then I'll follow up with mine because that's what the world wants to know. Because nobody of those guys on the podium answered the question.

He should’ve been in jail like his own father. Before Trump pardoned him and gave him an ambassadorship. All good friends with Bibi, too, who used to stay at their place in NYC.

Apart from being the Russian war 'negotiator', Kushner is also the middle east negotiator (with family connections to Netanyahu) so what kind of voodoo goes on behind the scenes with that man?... it beats me.
