  • Every time Ukraine retreats they call it a tactical retreat. I think the word you’re looking for is just retreat. Ukraine is going to lose, face it.
  • @Mman.
    What happened to all the money allocated to build Kharkiv defensive lines??
  • Would love for Blinken and Zelenskyy to be sent to the front line for a spell.
  • @Popajaja
    t's never too late for unconditional capitulation!
  • @user-qi5vf2ws8t
    Aid to Ukraine consists of weapons and ammunition that are close to their expiration date and/or have already expired. It would be more expensive to disable and/or discard.

    Didnt Blinken shred the guitar with his garage band at a bar in Kiev while he was there? "Wag the Dog" comes to mind.
  • @johnmuthan286
    Where are those trenches and fortifications that Zelensky spent 500 millions on last march? Or should I say where has the money gone?!
  • @cindycliburn716
    Going over to check on their estates and investments just on our dime as usual, like everything they've amassed was bought with. The jig is up, we know ...
  • @TAYLORFAN50
    After the Afghanistan withdrawl debacle how does Blinken still have a job? What a facade.
  • @TSUTENKAKU007
    Is Ukraine getting only 2 more batteries of Patriot missiles? That's nothing. Ukraine needs much more than just 2. This is why so much damages to everything by Russian missile attacks.

    10% for the Big Guy is still on target for 2024. Americans are so happy to see that someone is still getting paid. 🤬
