Bill Clinton: “I’m tired of the way we treat our allies like dirt. And just last week, President Trump finally did what he threatened to do when he first ran, which is to abandon Ukraine and embrace Vladimir Putin all over again.” I hope the American people are also tired of it

Zelenskyy simply and accurately explains why giving up the Donbas won’t end the war: "Putin says he wants the Donbas, but why, at the start of the full-scale invasion, was he trying to occupy Kyiv? Is that the east of our country? Is that the Donbas? No, that’s the capital. Without a capital, there is no state. Putin wants to destroy Ukraine. For us, the question is not about withdrawing from the Donbas. The real question is the survival of our state. We stand and fight, because what is the alternative? To be destroyed. Simply put, not everyone feels this because Ukraine is still standing. We have stabilized the battlefield. We are grateful to our partners in Europe, America, and other countries, Japan is helping, Canada is helping, Australia, New Zealand, whoever can. Ukraine stands against such a powerful enemy as Russia. We stand, otherwise we will be destroyed. It’s always difficult, you know, in communications with partners, to find the right words, the warnings that they will truly understand. Putin wants to destroy us. He doesn't respect us, our sovereignty, or our territorial integrity. He genuinely believes that we are not a country, not a nation. So do you really trust that he only needs the eastern part of our country? Of course that will never be enough for him. And what will happen if we fall? How many people, I don’t know, maybe twenty million Ukrainians, will come to Europe? Because Putin will destroy our homes and force us out. For me, this is absolutely clear. That’s why we are standing strong, defending our country. Yes, with pain, with huge losses. That’s why we are asking: stop the killing. And as I have heard so many times from POTUS, 'they have to stop the killing.' Russia is killing us on our own territory. They came onto our land and keep pushing further. They do not want to stop. They do not even want to freeze the war, as you can see. So, do you think what Putin really wants is just the eastern part of our country? No. It will never be enough for a person like him."

Zelenskyy: "When our strikes reached Yandex data centers, it suddenly became little easier to breathe on many social media platforms. Many people noticed it. There was less hate, less division, fewer provocations because there were fewer bots. It's pretty clear where those bots were coming from. If they disappeared when Yandex went offline, this proves once again that Europe is not the source of the problems." The big problem is that Russia figured out how modern society consumes information a decade ago, but the West hasn't. There are millions of bots commenting and posting Russian propaganda. There are paid influencers spreading it, with Russian bots supporting their content. There is a gigantic machine operating to radicalize and influence Western societies, and there is not enough defense in place. It doesn't just influence elections, it sows discord, engulfs societies in culture wars, radicalizes teenagers, and shapes political decisions when elected officials fail to read the room. That needs to change. And fast.

Vance: "I think Ukrainians should stop bombing Russian energy... I don't think that Ukraine should be in NATO." NO ONE WAS TOUCHING THEIR PRECIOUS ENERGY UNTIL THEY INVADED US! And maybe, just maybe, Russia should stop murdering Ukrainian civilians on a daily basis, JD? Maybe they shouldn't be murdering babies in their strollers in the park like they did today? Maybe they should stop an almost 5-year-long bombing campaign against Ukrainian infrastructure designed to plunge us into a humanitarian disaster and force us to surrender? How about that? Or, hear me out, maybe they should fuck off back across the border, and then no one will bomb them again?

Q: Can Ukraine win this war without the US? Zelenskyy: "If it's without the US' support, it's very difficult. But if the US will support Putin, I mean, it's unbelievable. It's a historic mistake and big tragedy. If the US officially will take the side of Russia, of course we will not prevail, and we will not be able to stand. That's why we hope that President Trump and his team will be on our side, or at minimum in the middle." Sadly, this is not unbelievable anymore...

Zelenskyy: “Just imagine, there are Ukrainian children who have never known peace. That’s absolutely horrifying. Many children in Ukraine, including among the fallen, have never lived in peace. We lived in a different time. We understand what it’s like to live without sirens, shelling, and constant fear. But these kids go down to the bomb shelter every night when the alarm goes off, and it goes off every night. Then they come back up, and some of them have died. When a Russian missile cuts short the life of a child who has seen nothing yet… just imagine. My pain is not even 10% of the parents’ pain. It’s just terrifying.” There is an entire generation of Ukrainian children who are schoolkids by now, and who do not remember what a peaceful life is like. They are growing up in conditions where someone is constantly trying to kill them. They don't understand why. They did nothing wrong, nothing to deserve constant bombings of their homes. Russia must be stopped. And until then, Ukraine needs air defense so that we don't have to bring toys to collapsed buildings, where Russia cut short lives that never got to experience peace.

This is Odesa after a Russian attack today‼️ Russia struck an 11-story building, and when firefighters arrived and started their work, Russia struck it again. 10 people were injured, including 2 firefighters. At the time of the first attack, people were in a shelter, which saved their lives. Again, this is a big city on Friday, in broad daylight. This is terrorism.

Trump: "Putin has no respect for this person." Clinton: "That's because he'd rather have a puppet as president of the United States. You're willing to spout the Putin line, sign up for his wish list, break up NATO, do whatever he wants to do." October 19, 2016. She was right.

Q: "It's not just Trump, we also heard from Elon Musk saying Zelenskyy has gone too far. Why are they blaming you for the continuation of this war?" Zelenskyy: "Because these people can't find a key to how to stop Putin. Because it's more difficult to stop Putin than to pressure others..." The key to stopping Putin has always been the same: Russia’s ability to wage war must be destroyed, both economically and militarily. Right now, the US is doing the exact opposite. Zelenskyy: "It’s simpler to talk about prices and connect them to Ukraine, when everyone in the world understands that prices are rising because of the war in the Middle East and the blocking of the Strait of Hormuz. If we want to speak with people fairly, if we want to be clear, if we want to speak with our nations openly, people have to hear the reality. Don’t play games with people." Because Ukraine is in a vulnerable position, it is an easy scapegoat for everything. We are under attack and depend on our partners for support. We are forced to perform true miracles of patience and diplomacy. But blaming Ukraine didn’t work for Orbán in Hungary, and it won’t work for Trump in the US.

Alice Weidel is saying that Zelenskyy “is not interested in peace,” and that in order to have peace in Ukraine, “we need to take Russia’s security interests into account.” She is a straight-out Russian asset. Note how Alice recoils and refuses to acknowledge that Russia rejects making peace when cornered by the host. Instead, she pivots straight to money talks, still refusing to admit that what she’s actually proposing is pushing Ukraine to surrender, leaving Ukrainians to be murdered under Russian occupation. As for Russia’s security concerns, it’s pure comedy. They were quite secure before they decided to invade Ukraine. So Russians are secure, except when they go outside of their borders. Please do not vote for this vile creature. She won’t just sell us out to Putin, she will sell out Germany, too.

![Doocy: "Elon Musk has issues with the way his technology is being used [by Ukraine]. He believes these commercial products are being used for offensive military operations. He doesn't want that. He thinks it's bad for business. He might have throttled it." Starshield is a military product, but most importantly: Ukraine is the victim of aggression. All of its military operations utilizing Starshield/Starlink on its own sovereign territory are strictly DEFENSIVE measures against Russia's illegal invasion. Throttling a product you’ve sold, especially one your customers rely on for their very survival, is very bad for business. I hope Europe is paying attention.](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2112972102647378396/amplify_video_thumb/2112971728448069632/img/AfiXsBLguRAPR4D3.jpg)

Witkoff to Putin: "You talk so much about President Trump being a humanitarian. You are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that. I commend you, and I thank you again." HE MURDERS BABIES! BABIES!!! In their strollers. He murders adults too, entire families. Every day. I can't believe I'm fucking watching this!

Vance: “Criticism of desanctioning Russia is that Russians will now be able to sell their diesel fuel. That’s absurd, they’ve always been able to sell it. They’re just selling it at a massive discount to China. Meanwhile, our farmers and consumers have suffered.” The whole point of sanctions is to cut off russia’s revenues! Vance considers everyone idiots or what? US diesel prices have never depended on sanctions or Ukrainian strikes, so easing them won't bring down costs for Americans. Instead, lifting sanctions just lets Russia sell fuel without a discount, handing them more money to murder Ukrainians, all while everyday Americans gain nothing.

Trump: "Mr. Zelenskyy has to stop knocking out diesel fuel in Russia, because he's causing a shortage of diesel fuel. This isn't done by the Middle East, this is done by what's happening with Russia and Ukraine." You morally bankrupt, victim-blaming narcissist, RUSSIA INVADED UKRAINE! We have been defending ourselves against a genocidal invasion for almost 5 years in a fight where everyone gave us a week, and you find nothing better to do than blame us for a crisis of your own making?! What’s worse, Russia’s war in Ukraine would have become unsustainable by now if your poorly planned endeavor in Iran hadn't fed russia massive amounts of oil revenue. You threw our lives to the wind! Because you can't plan your own operations, and instead of fixing the situation somewhat with air defense, you blame us for the very crisis you created at our expense!

Trump: "We've given more money to Ukraine than almost anybody over the years, hundreds of billions of dollars. We've got nothing back other than high diesel. American taxpayers are tired of it." The US hasn't provided aid to Ukraine since Trump took office. Instead, they SELL military equipment to NATO allies, who then transfer it to Ukraine. And by the way, the US is currently withholding lifesaving air defense missiles that our allies have already paid for!

Rubio: "The diesel that Putin was going to sell, they were going to make it available to the global market one way or the other. The only difference is how much of it the US was going to get." By this logic, why do we need sanctions at all? They're going to sell sanctioned goods anyway, right? Wrong. Selling to China at a huge discount versus selling to the US or EU at full price is the whole difference sanctions make. And those waivers do give Russia a massive amount of money to keep murdering Ukrainians. Plus, Rubio openly says, "The difference is how much the US is going to get," which basically means how many missiles and drones they are going to fund without much impact on the diesel prices. Is that what Americans want?

TRUMP: Putin said, "I'd love to meet in Moscow." I don’t know if Zelenskyy would go to Moscow. Maybe he would. Would you go to Moscow? ZELENSKYY: It’s difficult. There are lot of Ukrainian drones there. (Audience laughs) It’s dangerous. TRUMP: Yeah, it’s hard to go to Moscow.
