1. I wish they would have.

2. Does this mean that the Kremlin was lying?

   I find that hard to believe /s

3. Good. Major blunder on the part of Russia to get caught in a lie like this, and better still to see both Trump and Modi get caught repeating it on the world stage. Very public humiliation all around, and hopefully now the US recognizes the propaganda threat and gets serious at pushing for peace and supporting Ukraine’s peace plan.

4. Soon Trump will just be like “That’s not what my friend Vlad said!”

5. Duh!

6. Who cares if they did?

   Why the double standard.

   Russia can attack and kill anything and Ukraine is limited.

7. I know this is off topic but I just learned about it so I gotta say it

   In 2010 there was a website for Star Wars fans. You could post art, fan fic, theories, debates etc.

   This website was actually being run by the CIA, so that they could talk to their spies in hostile regions.

   I just think its funny. You’re a Russian FSB agent and you’re looking for American spies. The last place you would look is a website for scifi nerds arguing over Star Wars. You have to admit – it was clever

8. But for the record,they’d absolutley have the right to and this quivelling over whether they did or did not is absurd given the absolute atrocity Russia has unleashed simply because they choose democracy,and that’s before you even weigh the campaign of international assassinations Russia is behind including many attempts on Zelensky.

9. Putin, lying!? How could you suggest such a thing!

10. Seriously, people actually believe anything out of Russia?!

12. It doesn’t matter. Trump has shown he will take what Putin says over American intelligence.

13. Dw, trump will make them change their stance tomorrow

14. He’s a wanted war criminal. He isn’t afforded the same rights as a respected world leader. He’s a target.

15. So Russians target civilians in ukraine, if Ukraine targets and destroys oil refineries and logistical sites its ok but little Putin its bad ? Thatll make it worse? Fuck these guys!?! And T hump ! Head of the snake….

16. Even if they were – who cares? Why wouldn’t you attack the guy who is responsible for the invasion of your country

17. If anything, Ukraine should be allowed to target the home and workplace of the snivelling little cunt who has directed his armies to attack and kill Ukrainians.

    I think any leader of a nation that initiates a war or attack on another nation should be directly held responsible and be an acceptable target within that war.

18. Is that like against the rules or something? You can bomb civilian areas, kill innocent people, but you can’t bomb the dip shit that started it all? That’s fucking stupid

19. Trumpy will fire the people that wrote that report.

20. Trump proved to be a naive idiot yet again, by uncritically believing Putin’s lies that his residence was droned by the Ukrainians. Another day, another major international embarrassment by the Orange Moron.

21. OMG are they saying Russia lies. There is a better chance of meeting Jesus, big foot and the Loch Ness monster earring dinner together than Russia telling the truth.

22. The russians are almost always lying. It is clear to anyone who has been paying attention.

    Also, the Ukrainians have every right to bomb everything in russia, as russia is bombing everything in Ukraine and started this war.

23. Yeah, so does anyone with a brain and a pulse. The Kremlin didn’t have evidence, said “trust me bro”, and we even remotely believe the Ruzzians?

24. But Kremlin still win by installing Russian puppet in White House. Maybe someday in far future US will be lucky to live down such shame, but not today silly comrade!

25. Get Trump to listen or else it means nothing. If Putin can sway him with a simple call, all this intelligence and research means utterly nothing. I hate to be a “Debbie downer” but I’m a realist first and foremost. He won’t listen to this, even with the facts present. One call from Daddy Vlad, and it’s back to square 1.

    Edit: typo

26. Well they fuckin should!

27. Someone’s getting fired.  Hahaha…

    Better than “someone better stay on the ground floor” jokes …. But we’re getting there! USA USA.

    We shall reclaim putrid meme champion if it destroys the country and kills us first! So Close To Greatness!

    😂…😅…🥲

28. It’s actually far easier for Ukraine to hit the Putin Palace which is located near the shore of the Black Sea than it is to bomb Putin’s cheesy dacha at Valdai. Ukraine often hits Novorossiysk which is just 49 km up the coast by air from the palace.

    If Ukraine really wanted to, it could pulverize the Putin Palace at Mys Idokopas. It’s actually possible to give Mys Idokopas a review and a rating at Google Maps. That’s one method of bombing it. 😅

29. Fuck putin 🖕🏻 fuck trump 🖕🏻 and FUCK YOU if you support either one of these assholes 🖕🏻

30. As if putin didnt try to assassinate Z repeatedly

31. Obviously, but who gives a shit if they were? Putin has bombed countless Ukrainian homes.

32. Yeah, we didn’t need to CIA to tell us that, we already knew.

33. Who gives a shit? Since when is the home of the guy waging the war “off-limits”?

    You think Putin would apologize for murdering Zelensky and everyone he loves?

34. I’m sorry, but, who cares if they were? it’s not like Russia hasn’t been targeting Zelenskyy. It’s war, the best way to defeat the opposition is to cut off its head.

35. Honestly, that should be the point of war. Take out the leadership and end it. Too many have died already over that pompous ass.

36. Why does anyone care? It seems like this is fare game with how many times they tried to kill zelenskyy.

37. Let’s say Ukraine was targeting one of Putin’s residence. Isn’t that allowed? They’re at war.

38. Exactly, you know what war is right? You attack each other and stuff you like gets destroyed. It’s comically stupid that this is a complaint from a war monger. You attacked my house? GTFO

39. Who will Trump believe? Putin. They had to have already told him that before he went off on Zelenskyy

40. I don’t see why Putin’s residence is supposed to be off limits…. Didn’t Putin try to assassinate Zelensky in the first 3 days of the war? He has tried multiple times to assassinate him. 

    This has already been normalized, why is Russia crying now

41. Fingers crossed for next time!

42. So what if they did? Putin is a valid military target. Bomb is valid means of attacking any member of the command and control structure of enemy military.

43. Good.

    Putin is desperate because he’s losing patience with Trump. Notice how he’s not threatening nukes over this? When the first time they hit Moscow or their energy they threatened nukes? He’s in a corner.

44. Should they be? Lmao it’s war, the leaders are the main targets

45. Putin is Russian command and control. He’s a legitimate target, IMO.
