Did Biden give final approval for the pipeline?Yet another example of how easily you are fooled by your orange orangatang. Putin's pipeline was 95% built entirely during Trump's first term. He refused to sanction the pipeline builders and even vetoed a bill that would have done than. By the time he was forced by Congress to implement sanctions it was too late to stop it. Putin planned his invasion of Ukraine for Trump's 2nd term but it did not work out that way much to Russia's dismay. U.S weapons sent by Biden have killed 100's of 1000's of Russian invaders. The funny thing is that you think Russia can be our friend after that. Putin's Russia will never be a friend of the U.S. Never ever.
Trump veto delays Nord Stream 2 sanctions
New US measures designed to derail completion of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline from Russia to Germany will not go into effect until after 29 December as President Donald Trump vetoed the broader legislation of which the sanctions formed part.
The proposed sanctions would narrowly target companies building the offshore portion of the near-complete 55bn m³/yr Nord Stream 2, as well as entities that provide underwriting and insurance to pipe-laying vessels and facilitate ship retrofitting and upgrading. The sanctions also could apply to any entity that "provided services for the testing, inspection or certification" of the pipeline.
There was no war under Trump.LOL So Trump losing the war in Ukraine is "peace through strength? It sounds more like capitulating to Putin like a whimpering coward to me. It makes our withdrawal from Afghanistan look good.
World peace and you bitch lol. Pathetic.Trump elevated a mass murderer leading a tiny excuse for a country into international respect and notoriety that Kim did not deserve. He is a pimple on our ass that does not deserve the time of day. No one was scared of N. Korea but we felt Trump's attention was just what Kim wanted and we were right. I won't even get into the "love letters" but you get my point.
Whatever Trump did in his first go round to achieve that world peace we clearly saw during his term, is fine with me.
It’s better than hundreds of thousands of dead people and the world on the brink of nuclear war
Sit back and watch the adults fix your mess."...The Trump toadies who are convinced that Donald Trump is going to “drain the swamp” and “make America great again” during his upcoming second term as president are delusional. He did neither during his first term; and he will do neither during his second term. One need only look at Trump’s appointments at the senior executive leadership level who will direct his administration to know that Trump is nothing more than more of the same—especially in matters relating to foreign policy, which is the one specific area where a president can single-handedly do the most damage.
I have already warned readers about Trump’s appointments of the uber-Zionist warmongers Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, Kristi Noem as Secretary of Homeland Security, Mike Waltz as National Security Advisor, Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense, Elise Stefanik as U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. and uber-Christian Zionist Mike Huckabee as U.S. Ambassador to Israel. Now we can add uber-Zionists Sebastian Gorka and Pam Bondi to this ignoble list. Judge Andrew Napolitano said that “to a man” Trump’s senior executive leadership picks are 60% Jewish and 100% Zionists. Trump is being true to his campaign promise to “make Israel great again.”
The Bondi appointment as America’s attorney general is especially noteworthy. Trump’s first selection for this position was Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz. But after being announced as America’s next attorney general, the Zionist news media and political lobbyists pounced into action. You see, Gaetz is one of the very few members of Congress who is not on the Israel lobby payroll. The result: It only took a matter of days for Gaetz to be forced to withdraw his name from the nomination.
Enter Pam Bondi. Bondi is a rabid, pro-Zionist zealot. She is also a radical anti-Bill of Rights zealot—especially the First Amendment. Bondi (along with Department of Homeland Security nominee Kristi Noem) has every intention of stomping out the freedom of speech in the U.S.—especially that speech which denounces the ongoing genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon and which supports Palestinian statehood...."

If Russia starts using nuclear weapons, that will give the US a casus belli to nuke Russia off the face of the planet.Depends on how much of a madman Putin is. If he wants to start a nuclear war, it would be difficult to stop him.
Sure it is. Let’s start by burning Moscow and Leningrad.That's not what the American people voted for.
Russia is the enemy of the whole of humanity, including the United States.There should be no war between the United States and Russia, since Russia is not America's enemy.
Zelensky is not waging war. He’s defending Ukraine from Russian aggression. And nothing that Washington negotiates will be binding on Ukraine.Zelensky's only waging war on America's dime, so he doesn't get to sit at the table, and should just accept whatever Washington negotiates for him.
At this point he’s not going to have a choice. If he didn’t want Ukraine to join NATO then he shouldn’t have invaded Ukraine.Just as we wouldn’t allow missiles in Cuba, Putin won’t allow nato next door. We were right and so is he.
It was nothing of the sort. If Russia dislikes being bombed then they should stop invading other countries.Approving US supplied missiles to be used inside Russian territory at the very end of his term was ****ing things up. You comprende?
No one cares if that is a red line for Putin. If he didn’t want Ukraine to join NATO then he shouldn’t have invaded Ukraine.Explain why nato in Ukraine was a giant line in the sand for Putin?
I bet Trump completely fails to make Ukraine give up and surrender.I bet Trump ends the war with almost zero concession and no begging.
Russia’s goal was to conquer all of Ukraine. They have already failed to achieve that goal.They don't have to conquer Ukraine. They just have to put Ukraine in a position where they can no longer effectively fight and force them to peace on Russian terms, which basically means the entirety of Ukraine east of Dniper to Russia.
Small advances achieved at great cost.Yet the Russians have enough forces that even while fighting in Kursk, they've been able to make advances in the East. Russia would rather have Crimea than Kursk.
Ukraine has done a pretty good job of holding their own so far.Your position has no basis in reality. There isn't a universe where Ukraine outlasts Russia, definitely no ours with Trump in the White House cutting them off.
Ukraine can get weapons from the EU. Germany in particular might think about giving Ukraine more weapons if it looks like they are on the verge of collapse.Russia can afford the losses. Ukraine can't. Ukraine's only advantage comes from the superior technology it is getting from the US and NATO. When Trump cuts Ukraine off, that advantage will disappear.
Making Russia capitulate is not the goal. Keeping Russia bogged down in never-ending war so they can’t invade the EU is the goal.How many years would it take Ukraine to force Russia to capitulate?
They have less than half that many. Somewhere around a third of that number. And a good thousand or so are tiny little tactical nukes.Russia has 12,000 nukes. The US absolutely cannot secure all of them if the Russian government collapses.
American nukes without tritium will have a fizzle yield that is a fraction of a kiloton. But that’s not to say that Russian nukes are the same.The plutonium in them doesn’t degrade. Just the tritium. So even if they won’t go thermonuclear, the primaries will still detonate and those have yields equivalent to Hiroshima.
Good. Let’s start by nuking Moscow and Leningrad.We are now closer to nuclear war because of Biden.
There is no need for peace talks until Russia is ready to surrender.Evidently. I can't seem to recall any attempts by the US/NATO to have peace talks.
Russia is the only one who instigated this conflict.All I have seen is the US/NATO instigating this conflict and then escalating it.
Eradicating Russia is a laudable goal. I hope Putin starts using nukes so that we can start nuking Russia.Evidently there is only one US/NATO goal for this conflict: sacrifice Ukraine for the eventual conquest of Russia.
No it isn’t.The US Dollar is slowly collapsing right now.
No they aren’t.Countries all over the globe are quietly de-dollarizing their central banks.
Which is practically suicide.How is his "back against the wall"? No one is forcing Russia to invade Ukraine. They can withdraw at any time.
You go first, I'll hold your coat. Let me know how it works out.Sure it is. Let’s start by burning Moscow and Leningrad.
No, you areRussia is the enemy of the whole of humanity, including the United States.
On the contrary, he was participating in the ethnic cleansing of Russians from their native soil in the Donbass.Zelensky is not waging war. He’s defending Ukraine from Russian aggression. And nothing that Washington negotiates will be binding on Ukraine.
Given who has the larger nuclear arsenal, that wouldn't be a one-way proposition.If Russia starts using nuclear weapons, that will give the US a casus belli to nuke Russia off the face of the planet.
No he wasn’t.On the contrary, he was participating in the ethnic cleansing of Russians from their native soil in the Donbass.
I don’t care if it is a one way proposition, but note that the United States has the larger strategic nuclear arsenal.Given who has the larger nuclear arsenal, that wouldn't be a one-way proposition.
Russia ending their aggression against Ukraine would not be suicide.Which is practically suicide.
Do you really think that matters? There is no winner in a nuclear war. We all die.No he wasn’t.
Not that Ukraine is in any way native soil to Russians.
I don’t care if it is a one way proposition, but note that the United States has the larger strategic nuclear arsenal.
1920 SLBM warheads
800 ICBM warheads
500 ALCMs
280 bombs
Russia has a bunch of tiny little tactical nukes in addition to their strategic arsenal, but those tiny little tactical nukes are not the equal of a strategic nuke.
————————————————————————————————————
Russia ending their aggression against Ukraine would not be suicide.
Not all of us did.When did conservatives become cowards?
Imagine JFK being too scared to confront Khrushchev.
Better dead than red.Do you really think that matters? There is no winner in a nuclear war. We all die.
How about we just stay out of Ukraine's civil war.Not all of us did.
————————————————————————————————————
Better dead than red.
Well first, it’s not a civil war. Russia has launched an illegal invasion of Ukraine.How about we just stay out of Ukraine's civil war.
Fake news. Never happened.9-11, which was an understandable terrorist attack after Clinton bombed the hell out of the Middle East, terrorizing their people.
What Obama did was provide justice to all the innocent Americans that Kadaffy murdered.Then look what Obama did in Libya.
It started as a civil war. Ukraine was attacking ethnic Russians. The eastern provinces declared secession and asked for Russia's help. Russia gladly helped other Russians.Well first, it’s not a civil war. Russia has launched an illegal invasion of Ukraine.
Do we really know why they took such actions? The media we have is constantly lying to us.And second, staying out would be foolish and shortsighted. Once Russia is done with their acts of aggression against Chechnya, Georgia, Ukraine, and Moldova, they will begin planning their invasion of the EU. At that point we will have to expand our military budget tenfold in order to wage a brand new Cold War to deter Russia from invading the EU.
We should not send a single penny.Keeping Russia bogged down in Ukraine is saving us tons of money. I like saving money.
That has never been proven, and even if he was part of that those years ago, he did change. Libya was a successful nation until we bombed and killed how many innocent people? More than Qaddafi ever did.What Obama did was provide justice to all the innocent Americans that Kadaffy murdered.
I'm sorry you thirst for death is so strong, especially when so many innocent people were killed in the process.Barack Obama killed the two biggest murderers of innocent Americans in modern history.
It most certainly did. Clinton rained hell on the Middle East, and at one point exhausted our supply of cruise missiles. They considered us the terrorists, and a group took it upon themselves to get back at us, the only way they knew how.Fake news. Never happened.
Muslim aggression is caused by Muslims.
Fake news. Never happened.Likewise, Putin is forced to confront Biden & NeoCons because they and their senile leader are trying to put missiles in a hostile Ukraine right nextdoor to Russia.
