Fact check: Zelensky thanked Americans and US leaders 33 times. Expressing gratitude to Biden and Trump, to members of Congress both parties, to US defense companies and their employees, and to the American people.

Plus the language coming from Medvedev and Russian officials “slap, pig” is all evidence of the 2016 Russian “hoax” being in fact the very real core Russian propaganda I. Western media the last ten years.

Don’t expect the current admin to ever admit a mistake. They are and have been a bunch of liars, and turn around hypocrites since 2016. They bully everyone with pride and then blame the victims. It’s is narcissism in its sickest form. Oblivious to truth, and indoctrinated by X.

We the people know that president Zelenskyy, as well as the Ukrainian people are very grateful for American support. He has exemplified his gratitude numerous times. We know that Donald Trump has an ulterior motive and is personally seeking to undermine president Zelenskyy.

What happened today was an embarrassment to our country! It is insane that so many people can't see what they have dragged into the white house. Why don't you put your pants on and play bully with Putin? Instead you are beating on the little guys??? Gross ...

Hey, CNN, how about getting rid of your Trump apologist (Jennings) and start getting real about the danger that this administration is leading our nation and our allies to. Time for real time fact checking and quit covering Trump like this is a normal presidency. Do better!

Wow! Is the asshole POS you pay six figures to put on tv to embarrass your token black woman, Scott Jennings ok you running this story? Poor Abby Phillip. #CancelYourCable #EndLegacyNews

Trump is working for Russian and has been for many years. Russia interfered with the last election and you media, didnt do a thing about it. It's time to wake up USA. Before it's too late.

It’s already too late Comrade Trump was elected & will now do the bidding of his master. Since America voted for him good luck & enjoy the ride, you might be proud to be American but if I have to listen to you in my own town going on about how great the cesspit (USA) is expect rebuffed. Putin’s tool

Trump lost today. This is not the first time that Trump confronted Zelenski and lost. The first time was over a phone call, after which Trump was impeached in the House. You would think he would learn.

That visit to Pennsylvania jd Vance talked about was Zelenskyy visiting an arms manufacturer to thank the workers for making the weapons and ammo they made for Ukraine.

Es ist einfach beschämend, diese Szenen aus dem Weißen Haus zu sehen - wie ein Land, das Bombardierung von Krankenhäusern, Mord & sexuelle Gewalt in einem Angriffskrieg durch Russland erlebt, als Bittsteller vorgeführt & in hochnäsigem Ton angeblafft wird Ein beschämendes Kapitel der US-Geschichte

There’s only one way to cure this troubled misguided administration. Starting today a full BOYCOTT of our own products until trump is gone! Time for self induced economic chemo, in the hopes we can heal from this pestilence of a presidency.

Yes, he has. He just refuses to grovel. Good for him. Vance is white trash. He was a bitch in the service and still is. European Union and Australia will help pick up the slack. Ukrainians are a tough resourceful people. They are using cheap drones to destroy billions of dollars worth of equipment.

He was a guest in our country, and even IF he was under stress AND lost some control, a real statesman, diplomat, president would not have behaved as shamefully as did Mr. Trump. Mr. Trump was a bully in this situation.

People voted for this shit. So many people! I’ll never get over that. It was no secret that Trump was an opportunist, an exploiter, dishonest, backstabbing and in bed with Putin. Yet they voted for him anyways because we can’t have a woman in the White House and because eggs are too expensive.

When his bff provided a platform to spread propaganda and fake news it’s no wonder some got brainwashed. Weird how that’s not considered election interference though.

We don't need thanks at all. as a proper American, I want ammo and equiptment sent over there ASAP PDQ. They're survival is essential to continued stability in the world and we need to wake up and focus on the world's future and not some likes and emojis and the intarwebs.

JD is so vain - no amount of thanks would be good enough for him. And Trump is so senile he wouldn’t remember if you thanked him 5 minutes ago. They lost a lot of friends last night all to satisfy their own egos.

I know we all face an economic war with the US, but Ukraine's need is pressing. I am asking Canada's Parliament to provide Ukraine with $30B to buy & produce weapons. All free countries should give the same % GDP. It's the least we can do. The EU is in. How about it Australia, India, S. Korea, etc.

President Zelenskyy has, all along, been effusive in his gratitude for US support. It’s embarrassing that anyone would need a fact check like this. And it is infuriating that lesser men thought they would dare dress down Zelenskyy in our nation’s house. They are scum.

Today we lost a long time friend. Good thing is Europe will step up and make the USA irrelevant on the world scene. What a pathetic display of arrogance toward a victim of the tyranic regime of Russia.

I partially blame Europe for the predicament they find themselves in. They should have seen the writing on the wall years ago. Instead, they chose to sort of ignore it and proceed with business as usual when they should have started building their defences. Europe is too old to be that naïve.

Agreed Putin should have been stood up to following his invasion of Georgia in 2008. At the latest this should have happened in 2014 following the occupation of Crimea. As John Bright said an anagram of Crimea is "a crime". The whole Russian invasion of Ukraine is A Crime.

Clearly current president has lots of $$$ on the line benefiting from any mineral deal He didn’t like being ‘schooled’ by in his mind a ‘peon’ Zelensky who told reality #ukraine war versus trump reciting war criminal Putin’s talking points Vital Americans speak up against GOP tyranny #resist

I have never been so disgusted in my life. The behavior of Trump and Vance is unacceptable. To yell at president Zelenskyy and act like nothing more than playground bullies is 100% opposite of what the United States has always stood for.

Vance you are an idiot, stupid, and a moron. Fact check it yourself. There is proof that Zelenskyy thanked the US many times! Trump and Vance plotted against Zelenskyy from the very start. The American people saw what happened live! No turning back now!

moron.ismoron.is

It was orchestrated. Trump and Vance were never going to negotiate with Zelenskyy, it was an ambush. They disrespected, berated, threatened, and tried to blackmail Zelenskyy. Trump and Vance made it clear they are siding with Putin. It’s Embarrassing to be an American. I pray that Zelenskyy wins!

Exactly. His constant comments he should be respected are hilarious. I think at this point the whole world (especially Putin) are laughing at him. Respect is earned but a narcissist would never see that.

EXACTLY! All of us in the qorld- with functioning memory know he has been "very thankful ", to say the least..So POTUS & VP either have failing cognitive memory or have the unbelievable ignorance of compulsive sabotaging United states relationships of allies and the European union.

It is both distressing and worrisome that the president and vice president feel they can lie at will as if that false narrative will be accepted as reality. Worse, the actual negotiator (Rubio) sits silently while this farce plays forward. Sad, and so in-American.

but he didn‘t thank #nakedkingdonald #wankervance for what the Biden-US did. and rightly so, because they keep saying that the Biden-US should not have saved Ukraine …

Sickening that you have allowed Vance to create a narrative. The media needed to stop chasing tails and get out ahead and just report the truth and this would never be an issue. You created your own bullshit.

I cannot express this enough that when Trump and Vance embrace Putin, they have embraced a war criminal and they need to get the fuck out of our country. If they continue to stay here Trump and Vance should absolutely be prosecuted as the criminals they are.

It is shameful how the Trump-USA is now emulating the oligarch world. A show of billionaires is supposed to be good for our country? And Zelensky fights for his country/democracy and is laughed at and belittled in the WH? The sick Trump shit improves your lives? Certainly not mine. U need therapy

Many people thank you for your fact-checking. CNN is obviously still a rock of objective American reporting in the surf of the current destructive political developments in your country, keep it up CNN!

Vance's rude behavior shows he thinks Trump is the US. Zelensky has shown much gratitude to the US, but Trump wants to punish him for not kotowing back in the day Trump tried to blackmail him. Trump knows Z is a strong man and that Trump is a spineless puppet on a string.

The support for Ukraine is overwhelming in the Free World. U.S. World leadership is falling fast, and the rest of the free world is stepping in. The USA has lost its standing in the world, except in the eyes of dictators and strongmen. The future is without the US in the picture, thanks to Trump.

Zelensky's thanks highlight the unity and support that transcends political lines. It's a testament to how pivotal American assistance has been in this crisis, reminding us that in times of adversity, collective action can make a significant difference.

Big deal he should’ve been thankful when he was at the oval office with Trump. Zelinski wants security guarantees meaning boots on the ground for US another never-ending war or one that ends very badly with nuclear.

How was a good week for Putin? It was a real good week for America. Zelinski wants America to put boots on the ground to protect him from Russia that shit done. America is not protecting the world anymore. If Zelinsky wants protection, The EU can do it.

I am so glad he did have the pleasure of dealing with Biden and Obama! Please don’t judge Trumps United States Of Russia, as the USA! It’s a Sad state of affairs, Americans find themselves in. The Election unfortunately was rigged like today’s meeting, for Putin and Trumps assignation attempt.

Maybe it's not about the thanking as much as the American president, along with the VP, capitulated to Putin in a submissive display worthy of an SM dungeon. These silly piecemeal fact checks obscure the bigger picture: the US f'ed over an ally on live television.

Why do Trump and Vance feel they need thanks from Zelenskyy? Biden armed him. Trump tried to extort him. Republicans said Obama didn’t do enough for Ukraine, and didn’t take Putin seriously enough. Today, Trump negotiated for and sided with Putin. That’s how far theGOP has fallen.
