When russia asks its allies for armaments, they get ballistic missiles, drones, and boots on the ground. When #Ukraine asks for the capacity to defend itself or even fire back, it gets excuses. by @cheapncheerless #UkrainianView

Keir Starmer should condemn Trump’s illegal action in Venezuela. Maduro is a brutal and illegitimate dictator, but unlawful attacks like this make us all less safe. Trump is giving a green light to the likes of Putin and Xi to attack other countries with impunity.

Reminder, Maduro was the one who took the government by a coup when he stole the elections last year. This is a whole mess, and you don't have to like our Opposition leaders if you don't want to. But respect the fact that WE Venezuelans choice them, Edmundo is our president, and we stand with Maria.

Maduro is a brutal and oppressive dictator of Venezuela. Trump has no legitimate legal basis for military action against Venezuela under United States or international law. Both of those facts are simultaneously true.

Venezuela now, because he wants the oil. He wants the oil under Greenland too. And under Canada. He's openly called for them to be part of the USA. How long before he decides to bomb a couple of NATO members to get his own way? The USA is a rogue nation.

This is true. I kept hoping that the US would mobilise around national survival. A nation can be destroyed without a single bomb from a hostile force. However, the ploy also boxes both Trump and Putin in and bleeds authority from the White House.

Trump continues to fall for Putin’s lies, whether by choice or by weakness.

Side-by-side screenshots of posts on X (formerly Twitter). On the left, posts from Faytuks News cite Russia’s TASS, claiming Vladimir Putin informed Donald Trump of an alleged Ukrainian attack on Putin’s residence, saying Trump was “shocked and outraged,” and later quoting Trump as saying, “Thank God, we did not give Tomahawks to Ukraine.” On the right, a post from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy strongly denies the claim, calling the “residence strike” a complete fabrication by Russia meant to undermine diplomacy and justify further attacks, emphasizing that Ukraine does not take actions that sabotage peace efforts and urging the world not to stay silent.

Another humiliation for the US as its president fights to hide the mass murder of Ukrainians in Donbas and to help Russia profit from its crimes. Two pedophiles Putin and Trump are trying to carve up Europe and are able to murder Ukrainian children while being accepted globally and at home.
