Bullshit. If he didn't refute Trump/Vance in public they would've claimed he agreed to their points/terms. When Trump/ Vance referred to diplomacy they meant the deal with Russia in Riyadh. If he just smiled and kept quiet they would've push the narrative he was agreeing. If he disputes later they ...

Minor point of correction but DOGE hasn't actually found anything yet and likely won't. It's also by It's nature, corrupt. You must be smoking the same crap the democrats are smoking. Evidence from DOGE's dogged diggings? The only thing dogged is the number of NGOs receiving funding for stupid proj...

JD Vance's little diatribe seemed well-reheearsed. Appears to me he had been working on that one for quite some time, just waiting for the right opportunity to use it. Came over like a huffy queen.

I suggest the majority on here didn't watch the whole thing, but saw the argument at the end on the news/X/some Youtube channel. Lol. just finished the 50 minutes. That description is EXACTLY what happened. It was a press conference. Vance was talking about Biden talking but not acting, and said th...

This is like some sort of sit-com. :uhoh: ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you even talking about? VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media. ZELENSKYY: Disrespectful? My country is und...

Canada is a Liberal country . Feck off troll. Previous US administration were liberal yet based on DOGE findings were corrupt as hell and incompetent. Funny how the current Canadian government has been accused of similar things by their own people. And didn’t they try and cancel election recently? ...

After reading more reporting on the context of this spat, it's pretty obvious what is going on here. Trump and his donor cronies are trying to get Zelensky to sign over mineral rights, effectively under duress. Zelensky knows, and rightly so with decades of precedent, that any contract Trump signs ...

Hopefully Canada turns off fresh water, electricity, and oil exports to USA. Canada is better off to partner now with China..... China is a more reliable/trustworthy ally than USA. The current Canadian government and leadership is untrustworthy and unreliable according to their own people. Canada i...

We’d need in Europe to spend 5% of GDP for a decade to be close to capabilities we have with t the US. Guess what though we don’t make anything presently without US parts or full supply. We’d need to spend 10% of GDP and literally go on a war footing to be close in 5 years. Don't need US capability...

OB might have a point.

Don’t worry there’ll be a proper investigation once Trump gets in office to find out if this so called investigation under Biden administration were actually done properly.

So ABC had pay millions and forced to apologise for disinformation charges. FBI lied about having their informants in the capitol on Jan 6. That Jan 6 investigation is now looking very interesting. And the MSM have now been put on notice about the consequences of spreading disinformation. I’m loving...

Every so often OB appears and posts such absolute pony that I wonder if he's actually a real person or just some bot pressing all the troll buttons at once. For someone who's seemingly served in the armed forces, he is astoundingly ignorant of pretty much everything. During the election campaign, I...

Sadly the result of this war will be my worst fears more than a year ago . Putin will gain the vast majority of his invaded territory and the brave Ukrainians will be forced to concede and sue for an unjust peace . There’s a chance Trump could use the threat of NATO membership for Ukraine as a barg...

All backed up by carriers and armor and highly advanced artillery and a satellite network no other country comes close to. Not to mention intelligence operations. The onl...

Do you remember either of the Gulf Wars? The USA destroyed one of the biggest militaries on the planet twice within weeks, across an ocean. Russia can’t beat its little next door neighbour ffs. The USA lost a few dozen soldiers in the conventional wars. You know this, right? I know about the Gulf w...

Look at their economy. No-one will lend them money. They've created a trillion roubles for the banks to use buy government bonds because even with 21% interest rate no one is saving money because they already went through the collapse of USSR. They're cooked. According to Western economists Russia ...

He's not. He's a complete idiot. You should have seen his contributions to this thread two years ago. And here we are two years later and Russia not only still fighting but gaining territory.

Good basic training only works if the enemy is a bunch of sheep herders in the deserts. Against foes that are equally trained in basic combat then specialists training and experience is needed. Russia have adapted their tactics and have resulted in gains for them albeit slowly but that is a sign of...

It's drones keeping Ukraine in the fight at the moment. There's talk now that China are about to restrict the flow of drone components to Ukraine, so I suppose the question is how well can they replace that supply from elsewhere. https://archive.ph/BLSPM This is NATO vs BRICS. Russia wouldn’t have ...

And who said that NATO was merely providing basic training? I don’t believe anyone thinks they’ve for the Ukrainians out of the drill square or learning military history, right? I know what NATO is providing and I don’t think it’s enough infact it doesn’t even come close. I know it’s easy to paint ...

Not sure if joking……. Point is NATO has to fully join Ukraine for there to be any chance of victory. I can’t see them winning any other way. I just can’t. NATO has been supplying the weapons. It hasn't been supplying weapons that only NATO countries are 'allowed'. Ukraine isn't going to win because...

It was too painful to listen to more than 20 seconds, so I cannot speak to whatever was said after that; however Trump is bang on the money here. https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/s/ezi26lTk7m TLDR - Trump tells European leaders that it’s absolute bullshit that the USA must invest massi...

Amazing to see the lefty lunatics squealing with fear after Trumps meet the press interview. He’s going to pardon the Jan 6 victims of lawfare.

Specialists at charging headlong into walls of bullets, shells, and drones. Every military has cannon fodders. They’re necessary to figure out the enemy’s capability so plans could be adapted to overcome it. Russia seems to be doing that and they’ve gained grounds. Ukraine doesn’t have that capabil...

I wouldn’t knock good basic training for entire units that the UK and other countries can provide. There is a massive difference between units that are trying to do the right thing and then adapting from experience over a gaggle of cannon fodder types simply sent over the top. Good basic training o...

Ukraine also has Russian land. I don’t actually think Zelenskyy expects to join NATO - that threat is merely leverage imo. And I bet Putin knows that. The issue is that if things keep going as they are, it works in Russia favour. Sick of this politicians talking tough and using this to send billons...
