The Senate GOP bravely pushes back.

“Look, the president has the mind of a fifth grade boy whose parents haven’t yet accepted that something’s off. But a lot of you have undiagnosed oppositional defiance disorder and so you seem to vibe with that.”

Hopefully this war and the needless loss of life will come to an end quickly. 
 
 

“Hopefully Ukraine will unconditionally surrender its land and sovereignty to an autocratic invader.”
FIFY.
Peace is not the absence of conflict.
Imagine Ana rooting this hard for “peace” in a nation that the US invaded as a naked land grab. Fantastic.

There’s one simple way for it to end. 
 

But we all know that’s not what you’re implying here.

And Russia be defeated so that they will never again be able to attack sovereign nations on their borders and kill and rape and torture so many civilians in their attacks, nor steal children and bring them back to Russia, as is their normal behavior.

 

 

Weird Ani. Some of your post got cut off.

FUCK YOU MUSK-TRUMP. Threatening to take away life saving technology that essentially costs us nothing so Ukraine can give us half of their natural resources FOREVER. FUCK! “Critical resources” my fucking ass. They’re critical to Ukraine, not us

US negotiators told Ukraine US could shutoff Starlink if minerals deal not reached

SpaceX-owned satellite internet service vital for Ukraine

Zelenskiy says U.S. and Ukraine working on an agreement

WASHINGTON, Feb 21 (Reuters) - U.S. negotiators pressing Kyiv for access to Ukraine's critical minerals have raised the possibility of cutting the country's access to Elon Musk's vital Starlink satellite internet system, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.

Ukraine's continued access to SpaceX-owned Starlink was brought up in discussions between U.S. and Ukrainian officials after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy turned down an initial proposal from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, the sources said…

The issue was raised again on Thursday during meetings between Keith Kellogg, the U.S. special Ukraine envoy, and Zelenskiy, said one of the sources, who was briefed on the talks.

During the meeting, Ukraine was told it faced imminent shutoff of the service if it did not reach a deal on critical minerals, said the source, who requested anonymity to discuss closed negotiations.

"Ukraine runs on Starlink. They consider it their North Star," said the source. "Losing Starlink ... would be a massive blow."

Zelenskiy has rejected demands from President Donald Trump's administration for $500 billion in mineral wealth from Ukraine to repay Washington for wartime aid, saying the U.S. has offered no specific security guarantees.

On Friday, the Ukrainian president said the U.S. and Ukrainian teams were working on an agreement and Trump said he expects a deal will be signed soon.

Musk rushed thousands of Starlink terminals to Ukraine to replace communications services destroyed by Russia after its February 2022 invasion. Hailed as a hero in Ukraine, Musk later curtailed access at least once before in the fall of 2022 as he became more critical of Kyiv's handling of the war.

U.S. lawmakers are divided over Trump's efforts to find a quick end to the Ukraine war and some have raised questions about Musk's rapid-fire efforts to cull thousands of federal workers and shut down Federal agencies.

Melinda Haring, a senior fellow with the Atlantic Council, said Starlink was essential for Ukraine’s operation of drones, a key pillar of its military strategy.

“Losing Starlink would be a game changer,” Haring said, noting that Ukraine was now at 1:1 parity with Russia in terms of drone usage and artillery shells. Ukraine has a wide range of different drone capabilities, ranging from sea drones and surveillance drones to long-range unmanned aerial vehicles.…….…..

No, see….crippling Ukraine if it worn agree to hand over its wealth is the surest path to “peace” like Ana wants. Trust Ana. He loves peace. The fact that he manages to side with autocrats 100% of the time in furtherance of “peace” (defined as “rolling over and submitting to autocrat invaders”) is just a coincidence.
