  1. I’m shocked, shocked! Well not that shocked. God, decades of soft power all destroyed in the span of eight months.

  2. Agent Krasnov, the pedophile felon president does something completely on character… just throwing stuff at the wall hoping it will distract from his being all over the epstein files..

  5. Europe needs to wake up to this new reality that America’s focus is going to be solely on China going forward and any issues with Russia will have to be dealt with by the Europeans on their own. Vance admitted as much in that security conference in Germany

  6. Can any conservatives explain how he is America first and not a Russian asset, or do yall need to wait for Fox to tell you what lies to spread?

  7. Daddy Vlady is still upset with Krasnov, but he’ll give him a pat on the head for this.

  8. This is the meaning behind Trump’s tough talk rhetoric towards Russia. A mouth in front of the public and bending over for Putin behind the scenes.

  9. Okay, but what does this have to do with the Epstein files???

  10. Do you remember the 50-day ultimatum from that Russian spy?

  11. >David Baker, the Pentagon’s head of Europe and NATO policy, informed a group of European defense officials of the decision **late last week**, attributing the change to shifting priorities within the administration, people familiar with the matter said.

    Emphasis mine. The timing puts the decision to end these security programs just one week after trump met Putin in Alaska. Also since that meeting, Gabbard has purged the National Security Council, revoked security clearances of 37 current and former national security experts, and fired the CIA’s lead Russia expert. This is in addition to Gabbard firing over 100 members of the National Security Council a few months ago.

    Meanwhile, the Pentagon is more focused on attacking American cities, and pointless missions in the Caribbean.

  13. How would a Russian compromised administration act differently than this one? fucking wild.

  15. Comrade Trump has spoken. Yes he has helped Putin win this war, just not a quickly as he had hoped.

  17. Doesn’t this cut have to be approved by Congress before it has to be approved fully?

  19. Lmao. He thinks everyone is imbeciles, ranting against Europeans for buying oil from India, while he tears down intelligence as if it’s not needed, thinking he can get away with it in broad daylight.

  21. I went to the Imperial War Museum in London the other day. Reading about the lead-up to the start of WWII in the 1930s was chilling as it was so similar to what is happening now. But the part where “The USA turned their back on Europe” was particularly poignant.

  22. PEDOnald trump the traitor once again aiding hostile foreign nations. Hopefully one day he finally gets his due justice for at least one of his crimes.

  23. The US is acting, as much as Trump and Republicans are capable of doing, in the best interests of Russia.

    Donald Trump was already impeached once for blackmailing Ukraine by illegally withholding congressionally approved funding for the defense of Ukraine. Everyone saw Trump looking like a beaten slumped over junkyard dog in Helsinki. He parroted everything Putin told him and instantly abandoned everything our own nation’s intelligence, military, political, and social apparatuses had prepared him with.

    Trump is terrified of Putin and nobody knows exactly why. The president of the most powerful nation in the history of the world inexplicably cowers in fear of the president of a nation with 1/14 of its economic output. Meanwhile, the same man bullies everyone else at every opportunity. It raises very serious questions about his motivations and the motivations of the party supporting him.

    I think they’re less loyal to Russia than it is they’re ideologically similar. Neither believes in democracy. They believe only in selling petroleum and petroleum energy. They believe killing your neighbors to steal their things is a legitimate strategy to maintain power. They believe in presenting themselves as hard line Christians. They believe in an ethnic hierarchy where European people, men specifically, are fundamentally better than all other types of human being.

  25. People are saying we’d actually love to give back Alaska, many people are saying it many great smart people

  27. We knew this was coming. Was probably discussed on their little car ride. trump will be pulling the rug out from all allies. They need to get ready as he is helping Putin and Xi and Jong and the others.

  28. Seems its time for Europe to go completely their own way and cut the yanks out entirely then. They’re completely compromised and it won’t be fixed any time soon.

  29. 1. Europe shouldn’t be surprised by this anymore.

    2. Trump is Putin’s bitch.

  35. sTump is going to buy vladdy pootins military equipment and ammo soon.

  36. Well between him and Hegseth I cannot imagine it getting any better.
