When I say I respect @elonmusk I’m not kidding.
I’ve known him for years.
He’s done amazing things by launching satellites to make America competitive in space and producing modern, high-performance electric vehicles.
His Starlink system has also helped in Ukraine.
My concern with his Russian “peace” proposal is he is legitimizing one of the greatest crimes of the 21st century by Putin.
I do NOT want to see Elon Musk become the Henry Ford of our time:
▶️ Great industrialist.
▶️ Genius manufacturer.
▶️ Gives voice to evil in pursuit of peace.
Russia must adhere to the boundaries they agreed to in the 1994 Budapest Memorandum where Ukraine gave up their nuclear weapons force — the third largest in the world — in return for assurances their territorial integrity would be protected.
To do otherwise is an insult to Ukraine and will set in motion even more chaos throughout the world.

He wasn’t like Armand Hammer but it was strange!
Sounds like something Brandon would say. It’s not for you to decide.
How many billions have gone to Ukraine? Nearing $100 billion now?

With Democrat spending in the multi-trillions - much of it going unaccounted for and at least $500B of covid funds going overseas, you complain about spending pocket change to destroy the Russian military and keep a country free? Or does this new America stand for only Money and nothing but?
Unless it’s the democrats they are doing battle with.
Then they bend over.
Yep
I believe Charles Lindbergh was a fan of Hitler too.
Very telling what these politicians think of us and them isn’t it?
He needs mouth tampons.
It is evil to wish death on someone, but isn’t it time for him to go by the wayside? Like, decades ago. Let him finish his time happily being the “fluff man” in a steam bath.
“It’s easy to judge with hindsight.”
It’s easy to judge period. Morality doesn’t change with the seasons.
Imagine if the US told Britain, YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN, when they began to battle Germany in WW 1?
Answer is, an armistice, a retrenching of all parties and NO HITLER.
Or hardening our electrical infrastructure, building nuclear power plants to replace the soon to fail solar and wind turbines. THOSE are the things leaders do, get ahead of an easily foreseeable problem and LEAD.
That’s the best (only?) explanation!
We should have told Britain that unless they allowed our ships past their blockade of Germany, we wouldn't risk our ships to supply them.
Get back to me Linda when you explain Libya. A functioning country taken back to the stone ages, for cooperating in the War on Terror, but not willing to genuflect to ISIS/ISIL.

Our entire government is all about eugenics. That is what the Covid nonsense, from treatment to clot shot.
The ONLY thing wrong with the Soviet Union was the US Army should have pushed them back to their borders before shutting down the war. IMO, we purposely didn’t finish the war, because it may have led to actual peace. Of course also Commies in the Democrat party at home.
Perhaps more disturbing is Graham’s insistence Russia abide by the Budapest Agreement. That means Russia not only has to be thrown back to the starting point but also expelled from the Crimea and the disputed areas in the Donbass.
The thing is, even if you push Russia out this round, who is to say 5-10 years down the road they won’t try to return?
You got rid of The Kaiser, only to get Hitler. And there’s no way you’re ever going to occupy Russia, like we did Germany after WWII.
