🔴 Trump backstabs Zelensky for five minutes of midterm relief
telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/…
Matthew Delany retweeted
President Zelenskyy’s comment on US Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s remarks that the war in Ukraine is at a "strategic stalemate" and that there are now "no prospects for a negotiated settlement":
"You cannot negotiate future economic projects with Russians on the one hand and, on the other, claim that we are in some kind of diplomatic stalemate. We are not in a diplomatic stalemate.
Shut down Russia’s entire economy. Shut Russia's mouth. Stop feeding them through your sales. Impose sanctions on their weapons.
Open Starlink for Ukraine. You opened it when responding to Iran, after all. Everything worked there. Israel completely controlled the skies over Iran. So when you need it to work, it works.
It costs them nothing to help Ukraine. And I said quite frankly: help us protect our skies and gain dominance there.
Then Putin will sit down at the negotiating table. Why? Because he will lose everything. In two or three months, he will lose everything.
And instead, we are waiting for the Chinese to develop an equivalent and hand it over to Russians.
This is not a stalemate - this is called a lack of will."
"Right now, there don’t seem to be prospects of a negotiated settlement of the war in Ukraine. But the US is prepared to play whatever role we can in making that happen. It would be good for Russia and Ukraine, but so far, it’s proving elusive." - US Secretary of State Marco Rubio
In an interview with the Greek outlet Kathimerini, Rubio described the war in Ukraine as a "strategic stalemate" that can be overcome in only two ways: through negotiations or through escalation that goes beyond the original conflict.
Rubio said that, at present, there are no prospects for resolving the war through negotiations. According to him, Russia continues to insist on full control over Donbas, while for Ukraine "that condition is simply unacceptable."
"A diplomatic solution has eluded us, but we are prepared, if we can play a constructive role, to make it happen.
In the meantime, we watch with great concern as escalation could happen. Just yesterday, some ships were attacked in the Black Sea through a coordinated drone attack. We’re worried about a sabotage operation in a neighboring country that can spiral out of control.
And, obviously, there are clear indications that Russia will use the upcoming winter as something they want to use to destroy what remains of the electric grid in Ukraine and force them into capitulation.
Meanwhile, Ukraine has grown more effective in its ability to conduct long-range strikes deep into Russia.
So, we share the same concern. The whole world is going about this thing like something that could escalate and perhaps become a broader conflict. So, we stand prepared to facilitate and continue to explore any opportunity for a negotiated settlement," Rubio said.

🇷🇺 The Trojan Horse in the Oval Office
For a decade Trump has insisted that every link between him and Moscow was a hoax, a witch hunt cooked up by sore losers. CNN now reports that fourteen Russian spy satellites swept over Prince Sultan Air Base two days before Iran struck it on March 27, wounding twelve Americans and destroying an AWACS aircraft that had been moved and was found anyway.
American officials say Russian data very likely fed that strike and several others, including one on a CIA facility in Riyadh, in a war that has by the Pentagon's own count killed at least eleven American service members.
This is where the hoax collides with the body count. Putin helps Tehran put missiles onto American bases, and the president answers with a warm phone call about trade, according to the Kremlin, and a plan to strip a third of America's forces out of Europe, which happens to be precisely what Moscow has wanted since 1949.
Whether it is design or vanity hardly matters any more, because America has wheeled a Trojan horse into the Oval Office and the damage is being done from the inside. This is, after all, a man who barks at allies and goes weak at the knees for anyone with a scowl and a secret police, and one suspects that had bin Laden only paid him a compliment, he too would have been a very, very smart guy who had been treated very unfairly.
The remarkable thing is that the whole world can see it. Europe sees it, Canada sees it and is taking notes, and Moscow and Tehran saw it first and acted accordingly. Only one nation on earth still hasn't worked it out, and it is the one paying in aircraft, bases, allies and lives. History will struggle to explain how a superpower allowed itself to be so thoroughly outmanoeuvred by a man it had been warned about for ten years.

Congress has effectively recused itself — and that’s the real crisis.
What we have right now isn’t leadership. It’s a feckless collection of cowards.
That’s what’s so disturbing. The founders built a system of checks and balances because they never trusted concentrated power.
They assumed ambition would always need restraint.
I don’t think they ever imagined a moment where there would be virtually no checks on someone as reckless and malevolent as Donald Trump.
Democracy doesn’t collapse with a bang.
It erodes when courage quietly exits the room.

He is obviously mentally ill. Any sane democratic nation would have removed a psycho like this, but not in the US… get your act together.

"Battle Hymn of the Republic" is not a song to be taken on lightly ... but in light of this week's New Year Trumpian news onslaught, we're sharing this adaptation, called "Battle Hymn of the Empire" - as Trump goes marching on, and dragging us all back to the nineteenth century.

Last night in Kyiv, for the first time, I went down into the subway to shelter. I just got to the city at that time.
The platforms were packed - not with commuters, but with families.
Kids curled up on the floor with blankets.
Parents sitting shoulder to shoulder.
Elderly couples holding hands.
Strangers sharing chargers, snacks, and quiet conversations.
Above us, the city echoed with air defense and explosions.
Below, people tried to make a few hours feel safe.
At first, it was mostly silence.
Then the stories began.
A woman told me her husband was on the front line.
A teenage boy showed me a photo of his older brother in uniform.
Another family spoke about a son who hadn’t come back.
These weren’t dramatic conversations.
They were calm. Almost routine.
Because for Ukrainians, this has become part of life.
Standing there, surrounded by hundreds of people who never asked for this war, I didn’t feel fear.
I felt responsibility.
Responsibility to keep showing up.
To keep helping.
To keep turning support into real action.
Because behind every donation, every delivery, every piece of equipment, there is a family like the ones I met that night.
The war doesn’t pause. So neither do we.
Our fundraising is still happening.
Our work is still moving forward.
For the people in the subway.
For the people on the front lines.
For Ukraine.
Kyiv stands. Ukraine stands.
And we keep going.

This is the most comprehensive and BEST video I have seen on the #ICE assassination in Minnesota.
These MASKED ICE criminals executed an American citizen, in broad daylight who posed absolutely NO threat to them.
God bless the young woman who captured this video. I don't care about her politics, she is incredibly courageous and has done critical service to this nation.
SHAME, SHAME , SHAME on them and @realDonaldTrump his lawless, criminal administration.
My heart breaks for the family of the victim.

There’s been a lot of talk about 🇩🇰🇬🇱 lately.
So let’s clarify a few things:
👉 Denmark takes Arctic security very seriously. In 2025 alone, 🇩🇰 has committed $13.7 bn to strengthen Arctic capabilities & operations.
👉Greenland's status as a part of the Kingdom of 🇩🇰 is not in doubt, but internationally recognized. This includes by 🇺🇸 on numerous occasions.
👉The US has had the option to establish additional military bases and increase its military presence in 🇬🇱 since 1951 & that option remains open today.
These are not opinions. They are facts, grounded in 225 years of our enduring partnership, shared history & agreements between 🇬🇱🇩🇰 & 🇺🇸
Matthew Delany retweeted
The land claim to Greenland is one of the most unjustified land claims in modern history. There is no excuse for it and nobody is going to want to be allies of the USA if they do not honour treaties and attack and stab allies.

It is unconscionable to allow Russia to assault Ukraine’s sovereignty, recruit enemies like North Korea to aid in their fight, and then sell out the Ukrainians by conceding the loss of their territory and NATO security guarantees or membership. By making these and others concessions before negotiations even started, Trump has effectively surrendered to Putin on Ukraine. 1/3

Elon is creating tremendous damage for Tesla in 🇩🇪 Germany and many other 🇪🇺 European countries.
His discussion with the far-right party leader Weidel leads to customer cancellations and no, is not compensated by AfD voters. Many accept not having the best product if it helps to restore their reputation.
From LinkedIn:
"YOU ARE FIRED !
My wife and I fired our Tesla today! We are enthusiastic e-drivers and were actually very satisfied with the vehicle.
However, we are not satisfied with the Tesla owner, hashtag#Elon_Musk. We reject his right-wing populist, anti-democratic and libertarian attitude out of deepest inner conviction.
In our opinion, billionaires who believe that they can undermine our democracy with their money can be hit above all by not letting them continue to earn the money of the people whose democracy they want to destroy. This probably costs us significantly more than it costs Elon Musk. Nevertheless, the sign is important.
We remain convinced e-drivers, but now with a much better feeling!"
It is not a one-off it's a movement because customers don't want to be associated with Elon and a right-wing extremist party.
Tesla's vehicle sales in Germany tanked last year by 41% for a reason.
