The US is under the impression that it won the Cold War against Russia.

In an interview with pro-Trump journalist Tucker Carlson, Witkoff (Trump’s special envoy to Ukraine) praised Vladimir Putin, saying he “liked” the Russian president.

“I don’t regard Putin as a bad guy,” he said. “He’s super smart.”

During the interview, Witkoff repeated various Russian arguments, including that Ukraine was “a false country” and asked when the world would recognise occupied Ukrainian territory as Russian.

Witkoff is leading the US ceasefire negotiations with both Russia and Ukraine but he was unable to name the five regions of Ukraine either annexed or partially occupied by Russian forces.

Get gud? 😄

La papa

Seppo, septic tank, yank. Love it! Cockney rhyming slang strikes again?

Unfortunately the USAians are so dominant in the region of the Americas that they’ve coopted the term American for most people. My Columbian friend hates when we refer to USAians as Americans because he says “hey we were here first” 😆. But unfortunately that’s the way it is.

Yanks or Yankee Doodles is what we used to call them but they get rather upset these days when you call them that. I wouldn’t call them gringos because it just sounds unnatural for a Brit to say that seriously.

It’s shit

Why would your King’s best friend be charged with anything? The only thing he’s going to get charged with is how to funnel your public money into his bank account.

I think the general consensus is that the Democrats need to simply wait this one out. Trump will, inevitably, implode and ruin the country at which time the Democrats can ride back in more easily.

That and at every opportunity call people racist for not agreeing with the Democrats.
