Trump Pauses Military Aid to Ukraine After Clash With Zelenskiy
-
President Donald Trump ordered a pause to all military aid to Ukraine, turning up the heat on Volodymyr Zelenskiy just days after an Oval Office blowup with the Ukrainian president left the support of his country’s most important ally in doubt.
The US is pausing all current military aid to Ukraine until Trump determines the country’s leaders demonstrate a good-faith commitment to peace, according to a senior Defense Department official, who asked not to be identified discussing private deliberations.

I'd say that fighting off Russian invaders so your country can return to the peaceful state it was in is working towards peace.
Alternatively, has he asked Russia if it would just go home? Seems like another pretty efficient way to achieve peace.
-
Not shocking, but fucking abhorrent nonetheless.
-
Is there a historical precedent for punishing the defender for daring to resist invasion by a third country?
-
Does it matter at all? Trump is compromised and is actively working for Putin. This is transparent and not being denied. Is there precedent for a puppet to do whatever he's told by his master? Yes, lots.

The U.S. Military and the CIA must know what a threat to the country Trump is, right?
......right?
-
In exchange for what from Russia?
-
This is what got him impeached the first time, right?
-
If... Let's say if... It'll take some planning, they wouldn't just do it willy nilly they gotta plan the hit, find the right assets, find the right areas, research, etc. it takes a lot of work to whack somebody it's not like The Sopranos or anything.

It's like appeasement again only worse, because at least the motivation for appeasement was ostensibly to avoid conflict.
-
Sometimes I wish the US were what tankies say it is.

Mineral access after Ukraine falls. Not even like legit access for US companies, but like they do for oligarchs in Russia. Also now they might let him be the one to take out Zelensky to get back at him for not being grateful enough.
-
This is what I hope happens next: Ukraine wins anyway. European politicians that still weren’t sure about defending themselves without the US will be emboldened not to rely on America anymore. Europe as a whole becomes stronger and much less willing to tolerate Trump’s obnoxious demands, and see him as the weak puppet that he is.

Poland, it'd be really cool if you all "lost track" of those shipments.
-
How is this not seen as anything but a massive conflict of interest by anybody with any sort of authority in the current government? How?
-
who?. He's the one with the authority.
-
The military that he just dismissed the leadership of and replaced with his own people, and the CIA that's directed by his people?
-
Judges, and ideally more than two congresspeople.

Entire admin is pathetic losers. And thanks a lot to all those geniuses who wouldn't vote for Kamala because of Gaza, this is partially on your hands

Nazi traitors gonna do traitorous Nazi shit. God bless Ukraine and its holy fight against evil. They will find a way and emerge victorious.
