Contacts between Russia and the United States are now quite intensive, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova was quoted as saying by the RIA news agency.

Zakharova was commenting on media reports that Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff plans to visit Moscow this week to meet President Vladimir Putin.

I think we need some quiet time while these negotiations are going on....because we will only be privy to portions...and that is as it should be. There is a lot of sensitive information being tossed around. The Dem media will use it against Trump...which exemplifies their stupidty.

The Dems Morning Prayer...

Paddles Up!!

This is terrible news. We can’t keep this war going if Trump is dealing with Putin. Who’s side is he on?

The best outcome is for Ukraine to cede the Donbass region and then have Russia pay for the cost to rebuild Ukraine. Ukraine will forever be a buffer state, never being part of NATO but MAYBE allowed to participate in European Union economy’s.

It WILL become a vassal state, subservient to the will of Russia. Take it or leave it.

If the Zeeper’s refuse to deal then the alternative is for the USA to get out of Europe and let Russia annex ALL of Ukraine. /spit

Trump is on the side of the long suffering American tax payers, who have been swindled out of several hundred billion dollars of dollars by Zellenskyy/Ukraine.

Russia will never pay for the rebuilding of Ukraine.
They don’t have the money. Plus Europeans have never willingly paid for the rebuilding of another country after wars.
They usually let the Americans do that.
However, Trump will never do that.

It seems to me that both sides could use a buffer state.
