After returning from Alaska on Saturday, Vladimir Putin told top officials assembled in the Kremlin that his summit with Donald Trump had “brought us closer to the necessary solutions”.
Those solutions, Putin stressed, involve Ukraine’s capitulation to the maximalist demands that prompted his 2022 invasion. “Settling these root causes [for the war] must be the foundation for a settlement,” he said.
The extraordinary meeting at Anchorage’s Elmendorf Air Force base has ended Putin’s pariah status and brought Washington’s stance on the war closer to Moscow’s.
And Putin did not need to budge an inch.
I thought he was ruzzian for the longest time. But it turns out his family comes from Germany and Scotland. Only Melania is from Slovenia… Again not ruzzian. So why do they capitulate to putin is beyond me.
Trump is as worthless and stupid as the traitors that voted for him
Unban him!
The modlog suggests that this guy advocated for violence across three comments, which got him a 7 day ban. I would like to see more even enforcement of the rules here, including holding Trumpers and MAGAts accountable when they do the same thing, but this is an open and closed case of rule violations. I’ve censored the posts below but if you want to see what he said, click here and search for him by name.
mod Banned JohnnyFlapHoleSeed from the community politics reason: multiple rule violations expires: in 7 days mod Removed Comment (Direct threat of violence) JohnnyFlapHoleSeed reason: advocating violence mod Removed Comment (Advocating for OSINT on MAGA, hint of violence) JohnnyFlapHoleSeed reason: advocating violence mod Removed Comment (Threats of violence) JohnnyFlapHoleSeed reason: advocating violence
Advocating for violence against right wing Nazis is common sense.
It may be, but it’s also against the rules here, specifically Rule 6. And having tangled with the mod staff in the past, they are hardest on the Left on this. Do you want to get muzzled for 7 days? Because JohnnyFlapHoleSeed did the above and got muzzled for 7 days.
I don’t believe in censorship. And so, when banned, I just continue where I left off with whatever username is next on the list of pre-created accounts. 🤷♂️
Keep him banned ! But I approve this comment
Krasnov is doing pretty well from a certain perspective.
Trump is not authorized to negotiate on behalf of Ukraine… full stop. Anything that happened in Alaska was solely for show and for Trump to get his updated marching orders from Putin.
Something about Trump not being Ukrainian or the Ukrainian president or part of their government.
It was to put pressure on Ukraine and Europe and to make them look like warmongers, when muskovites are reasonable and just want to end this war.
It is amazing that this optic even exists, let alone that it is popular with millions of people.
Propaganda works. And it works especially well on stupid people.
Anything that happened in Alaska was solely for show
and for Trump to get his updated marching orders from Putin.Trump and Putin both know how to use the phone. This shit was 100% theater. Of the absurd.
Trump is a Russian puppet and Putin is a war criminal.
The fact that Putin wasn’t arrested immediately when he stepped foot on American soil shows you just how badly he’s grabbing Trump by the pussy to get what he wants.
I’m hoping the EU holds out for more with Ukraine. America is Russias little cuck bitch at this point and Trump will give him whatever he wants without question.
My question is, how long before Trump is declared a war criminal by other countries? Why aren’t other countries trying to bring true justice to him?…. My personal answer is that there isn’t anymore true justice.
Pretty much every President since Roosevelt can be argued to have been a war criminal, so I don’t see why countries would suddenly start holding the US accountable.
I mean yeah but Trump is being a real dick about it.
Previous presidents’ war crimes didn’t crash the entire global economy. Want people to care? Fuck with their money.
My personal answer is that there isn’t anymore true justice.
Never was. Your favorite US president was likely a war criminal.
Americans voted this asshole into power, if the rest of the world had any backbone we would be isolating the US from international trade via harsh sanctions & retaliatory tariffs, so once unemployment hits great depression levels in the US the people would stand up and solve the problem themselves.
Instead, countries like mine are lining up to kiss his ass because our leaders are neo-liberal pussies who are bought by the same ownership class as the American Democrats, and thus can’t fathom the idea of a slight drop in profit.
What justice was served by the Trail of Tears? Or by the MOVE bombing? Rainbow Farm?
Justice has always been one sided.
Damn good points. Justice is through their eyes not the public’s
They’re cowards and so theyll probably do it only once he’s lost power.
The entire thing was just Trump getting new instructions
Release the Trump/Epstein files
Everybody plays trump. Everybody is smarter than trump.
Except all the American institutions that have capitulated one by one.
They’re smarter too, just enfeebled by internal corruption and complacency.
“The best lack all conviction, and the worst are full of passionate intensity.”
How to outplay Trump:
“No”
Outplayed? No, took a couple back shots yes!
Outplayed him because Trump is a bitch and a sell out.
Trump should have arrested him
Fucking puppet loser
I don’t think he wants to arrest his boss.
What’s the movie where the guy goes “Look at me I am the captain now” couldve done that.
Let’s face it, a not-very-bright dog could outsmart Trump.
So many easily-pushed buttons: narcissism, cowardice, greed.
At the risk of being redundant, Putin isn’t outplaying Krasnov; Putin outplayed America by putting Krasnov in charge and is now cashing in.
This was a staff meeting / performance review. Pootie wanted to update Agent Krasnov on his next assignment, and Agent Krasnov wanted to show off his toys.
He who drinks with the enemy while his ally bleeds is no hero but a fool. You grant him honor while he seeks to burn your and your ally’s home. No word of peace holds meaning while his sword is still raised against those who stand with you.
