Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

You can sense the desperation. Problem is this is “quicksand” tactics. The more they do, the deeper they sink!

NYT: Elon Musk has already given far more money, about $366 million, to federal committees during the 2025-26 election cycle than he did during the 2024 election, when he laid out roughly $290 million to help return President Trump and Republicans to power www.nytimes.com/2026/10/12/u...

Immediately after Ukraine took out two of the five data centers run by the Russian tech giant Yandex, pro-Trump and pro-MAGA posts on American social media sites plummeted. The same happened to posts boosting Germany's far-right AfD. Russia is engaged in MASSIVE election interference.

Not for free right? So, let's do the math. 500,000 metric tons of diesel is about $500 million. A million worth $1 billion dollars. This looks an aid program for Russia and an effective disabling of US sanctions. This strengthens the Kremlin and is a threat to US, allied interests.

Russia will supply more than 300,000 metric tons of diesel to U.S. and global markets as soon as possible, Donald Trump says, after a telephone call with Vladimir Putin. He says another 500,000 tons will follow in November, then 1 million more immediately afterward. meduza.io/en/news/2026...

Trump relaxing sanctions on Russia to import oil to America to reduce diesel costs is like FDR announcing in 1939 that he is importing coal from Germany to bring down heating costs.

❗️The US Treasury says OFAC is issuing a temporary license allowing Russian diesel onto the global market at Trump’s direction. The move comes weeks after Trump signed the Lindsey Graham Russia Sanctions Act, which threatens tariffs on countries buying significant Russian oil and gas. #Russia

Theatre of the absurd! Trump announces US will buy diesel from russia even though he signed a law mandating sanctions for any country buying russian energy. Meanwhile russia actually has a diesel export ban because they can’t meet domestic demand.

Bernie Brown reposted

Buying Russian diesel will not moderate global diesel prices substantially (for obvious reasons). Also, for example, China and India produce more diesel than Russia. Russia was the one choice where buying the diesel violates our sanctions and undermines our national interests/Ukraine security.

Zelenskyy: "For first time in Russia’s history, we now hear that its oil industry is running on fumes. Our target is Russia’s ability to finance this war, to drag it out, to make it more brutal & destructive. Russia’s finances & Russia’s production are what must be stopped if Putin is to be stopped”

How about the Congressional Dems start doing daily press conferences? Give the press an alternative to the lie-a-palooza coming out of the White House. Let's get that pre-election messaging mainlined into the Media stream! (especially since the House is adjourned until after the election)

As Epstein’s buddy’s approval rating continues to plummet before the midterms in about 7 weeks, you can be sure the rage farming accounts on social media (many from CRINKs countries) will step up their propaganda campaign for the party of the convicted felon/adjuticated rapist. Don’t fall for it!

This is absolutely bananas. Trump says we’re suspending exercises with South Korea because of his “really good relationship” with Kim Jong-un. North Korea is nuclear-armed, threatens South Korea, and is actively helping Russia wage war against Ukraine.

The Generic Congressional Ballot Average with Democrats at +7 (even Fox News has Democrats at same margin) will drive Epstein’s buddy towards crazier, desperate stunts. Sue him if he does. #BlueWave www.realclearpolling.com/polls/state-...
