    Russia conscripts soldiers and invades Ukraine. You seem to think Ukraine should roll over and let Russia win. You also think conscription if evil. I can only conclude that you think evil should win.

    Palestinians have the right to attack Israelis cuz Palestine is under "occupation" according to you but ukrianians which is a UN nation whom had a peace treaty with russia has no right to defend itself lol.

    Lefties are just as bad as MAGA. Whatever anti America spin you just go with it. Utterly braindead

    Not only does @glynch willingly and repeatedly align himself with MAGA, Putin and the rest of the crypto- fascists - he actually is starting to sound like your average MAGA moron as well.

    I see barely coherent sentences strung together with spit and chewing gum... soon he'll be riffing on sharks eating batteries and President Pelosi outlawing cars

    Creative way to use Russia’s seized assets without an outright smash and grab.

    I didn’t pay enough attention to see the legal justification of guaranteeing Ukranian loans with Russian principal, but ehhh they make the rules.

    I'm not a big history buff of the 70s to know when the public shift in vietnam shifted into our war and away from a post-colonial French squabble, but here it seems the transition is when Ukraine started seeing losses, Blinken’s public declaration of future NATO admittance for Ukraine and lately the individual 10 year defense pacts With Ukraine by us and other Euro allies.

    I guess Trump’s polling advantage is letting that poor gaslit cat out of the bag sooner than the narrative wanted to shift.

    Trump accellerated urgency as Putin is clearly gunning for a war of attrition while public opinion in democratic western states DO NOT want to fight or spook Russia.

    I think it would’ve been better for us to negotiate a quicker peace where Ukraine won many concessions to face China head on, but it seems now that our Euro allies want to address Putin at their doorsteps first as a condition for supporting the US on China. Fair enough for border states like Latvia, Estonia, Poland, and Lithuania.

    This does create vibes for a Franz Ferdinand moment, but I don’t think Iran or China wants total war just to prove to their people that they’re taking the Great Satan head on.

    Lol… Who (besides Putin apologists) actually think this is a real offer? Why would Ukraine does this? Why would NATO (who has an interest in weakening a belligerent Russia) support this?

    I understand how someone dense would try to spin this as a gotcha….

    A military dictatorship that many countries have been clamoring to get into and where even the smallest country in it can stall and even veto major decisions.

    RFK doing a great job pulling those pro Biden voters who care about preserving democracy and think the Allies were the good guys in WW2.

    The fact that you are retweeting him says a lot about how RFK is a problem for Trump the more he gets exposed.
