I swear to God I can't relate to some of my fellow Americans
That's the funny thing: they aren't.
Funny how I never saw any of these memes during Biden's reign where Israel got $17bn in 2024. Or how Israel got $14.3bn in 2023. Or $3.8bn to Israel in 2022. Or how Obama, in his final year in office, signed a decade long aid package to Israel. Weird how you don't hear anything about "Zion Obama". Man, if I was crazy, I would almost think the "Zion Don" sperging was a fucking glowop.

What is happeneing:
Vance doesn't like the fact the US is sending Ukraine lots of weapons and providing cash and loans. He baits Zelensky into making a dumb, poorly worded statement. Trump, who is already pissed at him, calls him out. Trump doesn't think Zelensky is willing to try to make a peace deal, kicks him out of the Whitehouse. We are now waiting to see the responses.
yeah this was my interpretation also. the rw grifter "influencers" are saying zelensky was coached up by susan rice and the other obama era deep state stooges, but zelensky didn't say anything until after vance's comment. after the sperg out, vance looked into the camera with a grin.

i agree that the us is burning money into ukraine and meanwhile sending poor ukrainian men to die in a meatgrinder. but, the us is sending that money to israel now. what is the point of sending more money to israel? i guess that is the republican laundry mat, where as ukraine is the democrats laundry mat.

i only feel bad for the ukrainian conscripts. they are dying in a war which ukraine will eventually lose. and zelensky knows this and still wants to fight on. the eu wants to continue the fight, but i don't think the eu is serious about putting combat troops in the front lines to fight a hot war with the russians. zelensky will abandon ukraine for paris with all his money, meanwhile ukraine lost a generation of men and will not be able to get out of that hole for the next 20 years.
 
Wouldn't be surprised if he made those posts himself
Nah, I'm pretty sure they were made by @Chunky Salsa.

No, it's just severely autistic people who're mad that Trump isn't staunchly against Israel like they'd hope he would be (for whatever reason).
Terminally online idiots who only saw what they wanted to see. They were blinded by their own fantasies of what they wanted in a leader and projected them onto the orange man, purely because he was an outsider, despite being functionally a 90s democrat.

I don't like a lot of Trump's policies. I obviously don't like the way he's acting over Ukraine right now. I don't like his personality, and I don't think he's actually particularly suited to the job. Even with all that in mind, if I were an American and had voted for him I would have zero regrets right now, for three reasons:

a) He actually fulfils his promises and does things to help the common man
b) He is tearing apart the systems of control that have allowed the progressives to dominate so much of the west for so long.
c) watching the progs reactions to him is fucking hilarious
 
Zelensky mutters "fucking bitch" in Russian under his breath.
I don't know Russian so take my comment with a grain of salt, but from what I've gathered, cyka blyatt or whatever the phrase is can also just mean "oh fuck me..." or "son of a bitch." But Zelenskyyyy is such a little kike worm that it wouldn't surprise me if it was intended as an insult.

Either way, decorum is important. Especially since *you're* the one coming on your hands and knees begging for more money. Acting all petulant is not going to convince your tugboat providers to give you more money.
 
That's the funny thing: they aren't.

Because unlike Biden, Trump promised to:
  1. Nuke Tel Aviv
  2. Make it legal to call coworkers "retarded niggerfaggots" again
  3. Replace Abraham Lincoln with Jefferson Davis on the currency
  4. Officially declare the Germans were the good guys in WWII
  5. Make April 14th Hitler Day
 
Norway puts almost all of the profits from oil into a sovereign wealth fund and have been very hesitant to spend from it. They certainly do have a welfare state similar to many other European (and particularly Scandinavian) countries, but they had that before the oil and it's still funded through taxes. They tax their middle class more heavily than we tax the extremely rich who pay the vast majority of our taxes. The income tax rate is 47% and they have a 25% VAT tax which is similar to sales tax in the US. Turns out free healthcare isn't actually free.

Someone there was smart enough to realize that using all of that money would result in the population becoming dependent on it or more likely lead to Dutch disease and cause more economic problems down the road. I would not liken them to Saudi Arabia outside of having a lot of oil.
Late and gay, but it give me an in to a vaguely interesting story:


 
OK, seriously: can anyone here give me an unbiased, agenda-free quick rundown on the meeting between Zelenskyy and Trump? My entire social media is on fire from angry shitlibs crying about muh Ukraine, I'm seeing Redditards seething as usual, mainstream news sites are giving me the predictable orange man bad shtick, and Youtube is recommending me right wing grifter channels bragging about how Ukraine has been buckbroken by Trump. I don't know who to trust, and these threads are going fast. What honestly is happening?
In order for diplomacy with Russia to work, all parties have to play nice. But Zelensky refused. And secondly, he asked for US Troops in Ukraine instead of accepting an immediate ceasefire, so Trump had to throw him out.

Saudi Arabia does the exact same thing.

They don't have personal income taxes, but they do have a social security payroll tax, VAT, and corporate income taxes.

A lot of Saudi citizens get useless degrees in religious studies, and Norway has a lot of perma-students majoring in various humanities fields.
their king bribes em so they won't revolt against him, as arabs like to do

thus he gets stability, and they get free money
 
Semi-breadtuber/science man Kyle Hill does a stream to raise money for...Wild dogs??? Around Chernobyl because the new-ish containment area for the reactors was hit by a Russian drone strike in February, apparently. Literally all the money is going to the CFF (a ukrainian nonprofit) for wild dogs. This particularly makes me feel weird, since obviously nobody can guarantee the money goes to actually anything useful in Ukraine, and it's not even aimed at helping people in this particular stream. It was basically just a free money for Ukraine stream.

He gets lots of very funny pro Russian trolls in chat, and he also aknowledges the strike did not damage anything beyond the roofing and there is no actual containment breach AND there is no consensus by the Ukrainian maintainers on how to fix the hole. He also says nobody knows who actually hit it, just that all signs point to Russia.
 
I really like that Trump kicked that little Jewish dickhead tinpot dictator out of the people's White House - very refreshing!

Motherfucker has murdered American journalists, blew up the Nordstream pipeline in a terrorist attack, has meddled in our elections with his SBU, and impotently demands infinity more billions of our taxpayer dollars, while we've been the only country keeping him afloat.

Trump is 100% in the right on this, Zelensky needs a radical attitude adjustment.
 
I am somewhat surprised he didn't take the opportunity to also rename "English" as "American" a la The Gulf of America.

It's a brilliant move, because like the renaming of the Gulf, firing all the useless Federal workers, cutting the wasteful spending on woke foreign aid, banning trannies from girls sports, etc, it puts the Democrats in an impossible position.

Sure, the next President can undo all this shit with Executive Orders, but the optics would look horrible. Imagine AOC or Newsom running on a platform of "If elected, I will rehire millions of Federal workers who were unfairly fired! I will restore billions in foreign aid and ensure LGBTQ rights are funded around the world with masturbation sessions, dance classes, and basket weaving clinics! I promise to expand the Federal Government and increase it's budget by trillions of dollars! If you vote for me, transgender Americans will be able to express their womanhood in women's locker rooms and playing alongside high school girls in sports--no matter how old they are! I will rename the Gulf of Mexico back for Mexico as it rightfully should be, and declare Spanish our other official language!"

It's completely horrible optics. They can do it, but spinning it in a way to get votes from anyone but their base will be Difficulty: Impossible. You love to see it!

The Ukraine war regardless of whatever side you favor has been one of the greatest events of human suffering in modern history and this faggot is raising money for feral dogs.

I fucking hate dog fags sometimes…
