  1. > US President Donald Trump plans to offer Russian President Vladimir Putin access to rare earth minerals in order to incentivize him to end the war in Ukraine, The Telegraph informs.

    > According to the outlet, Trump’s proposals for Putin will include granting Russia access to Alaska’s natural resources and lifting some US sanctions on the Russian aviation industry.

    > The proposals also include giving Putin access to rare earth minerals in Ukrainian territories currently occupied by Russia.

    > It is noted that US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is examining economic compromises the US could make with Russia to expedite the conclusion of a ceasefire agreement.

  2. ruzzkis getting ANYTHING other than being able to collect their troops and scramble back is, and I mean this, too much

  3. Trump would be out of his depth in a puddle. And that is being kind.

  5. hold off and we’ll give you the resources from the land you were trying to dominate. Let’s end the war by giving you what you want.

  6. Wait we would give away our resources for a war Russia started? If true this would show the rapist and chief care more about some Nobel prize more than anything. How could the right even think this is ok.

  7. Does Ukraine know about this? Of course not, it’s just their country.

  9. He wants Alaska and Ukraine to pay for his Peace Prize (as if we’d ever give it to him).

  10. America first, but let’s give Russia access to rare earth minerals…. for another country….. conservatives / maga where you at with this one?

    Edit: didnt realize this would get so much traction, but here’s another source:

    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025/08/13/trump-to-present-minerals-deal-to-putin-in-alaska/

    Now, granted, both are forgein sources (from the USA point of view). But that’s typical this time of day (past close of business). I would be willing to bet this will be in the mainstream US news tomorrow. Normally, it takes US outlets 24-36 hours to catch up. For those unfamiliar with The Telegraph. From my understanding, this is considered one of the UKs big three papers of record. It would be similar to the Wall Steeet Journel in terms of credibility.

  13. Two little men negotiating for land and minerals they don’t own.

  14. When the joke about giving alaska back to russia wasn’t a joke after all

  19. Imagine giving Russia access to minerals in the US but putting tariffs on Canada? Absolutely out-fucking-rageous

  20. So let me get this right, a war that we aren’t even directly involved in and we’re going to lose?

    Trump is a huge loser.

  21. It’s incredible that every action Trump takes is objectively helpful and beneficial to either Russia, China, or Both. Absolutely insane.

  22. MAGA and their child raping leader is a cancer to the country.

  23. WHY THE FUCK ARE WE OFFERING THE RUSSIAN PRESIDENT ANYTHING?!?! He’s throwing our food at the bear, so he can keep his!

    You mean to tell me that, after having his head far enough up Putin’s ass to choke him, he’s now making threats against the ex Soviet-era KGB officer?!?! This is either staged or Putin is pissing his pants from laughing too hard.

    …either way, release the files. Lock him up!

  24. Fucking hell. Putin starts a war hoping to steal parts of eastern Ukraine. Walks out of peace talks with the US president offering him parts of the fucking *United States of America.*

  25. Republicans are treasonous. The lack of executions for treason that should have happened at the end of the Civil war have come back to bite the country.

  26. Dear Congress: Impeach and remove this joker right fucking now.

  28. CALLED IT! He slipped and called Alaska “Russia” the other day and people were predicting that he was going to gift Alaska to his master.

  29. The U.S. has never (in modern history) directly offered its own strategic mineral rights to an active military adversary in exchange for geopolitical concessions.

  30. This stupid piece of shit is now giving up US territory to a hostile foreign power?!? This treasonous mother fucker! This shouldn’t be a partisan issue, this is unacceptable, impeachment, and arrest worthy behavior.

  31. As a canadian i have 0 respect for any American that voted for trump… Fuck you.

  32. Why the fuck would the USA give anything to a foreign country to stop a war? WTF is going on here. Trump is a Russian agent and his goal is to deepthroat Putin at all costs.
