Putin Is Still In Charge
Trump can’t end the Ukraine war, and he knows it.
Today’s phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and President Donald Trump was a painful reminder that Trump is the junior partner in the Russian-American relationship and that Putin will continue his mass-murder campaign in Ukraine for as long as he can get away with it. Nothing else of substance emerged from the call. When it comes to Europe’s largest armed conflict since World War II, Putin’s still in charge.
Putin, exuding confidence, got out ahead of Trump just minutes after the call and talked in person to the media, which allowed him the first move in framing the discussion.

This is the universal language of political stalling. “Russia will propose” means “We’ll drag our feet and then whip up an unacceptable set of talking points.” “Ready to work on a memorandum” means “We’ll agree in principle to talk about talking about stuff.” “Defining a number of positions” means “We’ll come up with a list of nonstarter conditions.” And “the timing of a possible peace agreement” means “We’ll set up some unattainable schedule date for a cease-fire and then scuttle it.”

Right before their beautiful phone call, Pootie launched the largest drone attack on Ukraine ever. I wonder what they talked about?

We will never know what they talk about. It’s always secret.

Putin runs the world now. Trump sold us out. It will be decades before his supporters get a clue and most will be dead by then. A lot of us will be dead by then, and I'm not talking about getting older or average life expectancies. A lot of us will die violent deaths or deaths by diseases we once nearly eradicated, or new pandemics that will spread unchecked.
Conservatism is a death cult. They don't care about you and want you dead.
Buckle up. The world we grew up in is gone forever. There's a whole new world order coming fast.
