Ukraine Conflict - In the grim darkness of the near future, there is only war!
Apparently Trump was also irked by his attire. Guess it doesn't matter when it's Musk. Being MTG's boyfriend still doesn't elevate him from rando. Language seemed to be the issue. I am still puzzled where the disrespect in Zelensky's part is, well unless Vance was sticking up for Putin. Getting a kick out of people thanking Trump for defending the US though. Ukraine really needs one good diplomat, they've always had ones saying stupid crap, like Melnyk. I believe Yelnak was the guy behind this meeting as well, apparently Kellogg disagrees (source is NYP though...)

Shame Trump babbling like a dementia case won't hurt him an iota. Poor preparation by Zelensky and his team, should have told him to hold his tongue regardless of whatever nonsense the muppet Vance said. Seems like confusion on two parts there, at least reviewing the transcript. Vance goes on some unprompted ass kissing speech, Zelensky is arguing that diplomacy with Putin is pointless and then Vance gets stroppy. Maybe Zelensky was in a bad mood to begin with, some random journo was on his case for not wearing a suit, heh, And a start - https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/state-department-terminates-us-support-ukraine-energy-grid-restoration-rcna194259 Seems a bit extreme a scheme to pull off.

https://www.npr.org/2025/02/24/nx-s1-5305269/tesla-state-department-elon-musk-trump "But NPR has obtained a State Department document detailing that Biden's State Department planned to spend just $483,000 in the 2025 fiscal year on buying electric vehicles and $3 million for supporting equipment, like charging stations. It represented less than 1% of the hundreds of millions of dollars likely destined for Tesla vehicles after the Trump administration quietly revised a State Department procurement document."- Obituary thread

Doesn't really seem like the lesser, Russia isn't going to occupy the whole country, unless they're keen on breaking themselves. Sort of funny how it's peace at any cost, just to give Trump a win. As for US economic interests being security guarantees, ehh, US isn't all that reliable just on that And it's a bit more than SM posturing when you give documents to people and demand they sign it immediately, and other official actions Text of agreement. I am curious of corruption with this fund, but on the US side. https://archive.ph/Zs2Zr- Ukraine Conflict - In the grim darkness of the near future, there is only war!
https://archive.ph/968bf So deal signed, no security guarantees though. Seems kind of meh, guess will have to wait for the text, but doesn't seem like a huge win for Trump- Ukraine Conflict - In the grim darkness of the near future, there is only war!

Only really reading this as I read the Darth Plageuis book due to listening to some of the audiobook on Youtube, they chose a great narrator, Daniel Davis. But I've read KJA's Star Wars novels that was enough The book's not too bad though, the scheming isn't what I'd expected from a SW book. I guess I will switch to non-fiction. Maybe will read a book on Hitler's rise (and unlike back in high school when I did it for a project, I won't find Neo-Nazi pamphlets in the book!)- What You've Done Today...or yesterday...or what you are doing RIGHT THIS MINUTE!!!
