This is absolutely a stunning piece of investigative work. The height of corruption and the people of Ukraine are dying because of the morally indecent Trump family. We're seeing a complete U.S. realignment with Russia for their friends' and family's profit. Grateful for what you've uncovered.

Russia has bombed a school basically every single day this week, so for those people who say "if this was happening in Ukraine, it would be on the front pages every day", how many times have you seen that on the front page of even one of your national newspapers this week? Zero.

This didn't happen. What actually happened is that Russia deliberately bombed several American businesses in Ukraine. The Bunge oilseed plant was hit right after Senator Blumenthal's visit in a twisted demonstration of power.

Trump comes up hard against facts again: Bloomberg analysis shows the Iran war has removed significantly more diesel supply from the market than Russia-Ukraine. Trump caused the global energy crisis all on his own - no wriggling out of that.
