Friday, during an appearance on FNC’s “The Ingraham Angle,” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent revealed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had turned down two earlier opportunities to sign a proposed minerals deal with the United States.
According to Bessent, Zelensky was given chances in Kyiv by him once in Munich with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Friday’s dust-up with President Donald Trump was his third chance.
“[I] know you had a meeting scheduled — an economic meeting scheduled a few weeks back with President Zelensky,” host Laura Ingraham said. “And tell us about his arrival and punctuality or lack thereof and seemed a little sleepy during the events.”

Time to cutoff all aid to Ukraine.
It’s been a war for resources from the beginning between the nascent Fourth Reich and the resurgent Russian Empire.
He never misses and opportunity to miss an opportunity!
Best statement yet to date I heard that succinctly captures what this has always been about.
You guys ever deal with gypsies?
I have, long time ago and this is how they act.
Never enough and they are always the victim. Lie like hell. Steal in a heartbeat.
This insightful comment was gleaned from the Daily Telegraph.
I have searched, but I have yet to find a scripture or great work of literature in which cheering and funding war from a safe distance is held out as a virtue.
Z had a chance to renew it and said no....punishing all the EU countries and Ukraine itself since Ukraine received at least a billion in fees from The EU countries for the use of Ukraine's lines. He's just plain stupid.
Anybody know how his net value/assets have changed since he became Ukraine’s president?
Gypsy’s broke into my great aunt’s house. Took all jewelry
Three strikes and ‘yer out, Zelensky.
VZ is out of options, he’s got nowhere to go but down and out.
He sees himself as another Churchill, but Winston was brilliant, and had capabilities VZ could only dream about.
Trump on the other hand has lots of options.
Tell VZ there needs to be an election before any more US taxpayer money is handed over to make sure VZ has the support of his people before he asks any more of them to die in an endless war. And when he says elections can’t be held in wartime, remind him that America has held elections through EVERY WAR we’ve ever been in.
Next, Trump should demand a forensic audit of the money already given, and make mention of the rumors of Ukrainian elites stealing the money to buy condos and yachts, and American military equipment being sold on the world markets.
He should tell VZ that he got impeached because of his corrupt ties to Biden, and no money will be forthcoming without a complete investigation into Biden, Burisma and the corruption in Ukraine. VZ may need to testify in a US court against Biden, or no money.
In the end, this is a Ukraine problem and a European problem, not a US problem.
If VZ doesn’t like his options then try shaking down European leaders for cash.
They don’t have any, so bye bye VZ.
Well, some said he was jewish. Maybe, but he acts just like a gypsy.
Look at how he lies. Acts, always playing the victim.
Man l’m sick of this anchor.
PDJT needs to start pulling US troops out of Europe starting tomorrow. All of them gone by this time next year Maybe then Europe will get the message.
His third chance.
To put it subtly and with all due respect to Zelensky....

Z’s dust up was preplanned by Z and Brandon Junta. That is why the Press was there and it happened on live TV. Trump knew. Now Ukraine looks like an idiot. That Junta is why Euroweenies are of one voice for a change. This was all planned by Obama and EU to make Trump fail.
Instead, Green Tshirt guy MI6 Tool fired himself.
The Ukrainian parliament had agreed to the deal as it appeared on POTUS desk and Zelensky did too. While in-flight to WDC for signatures, Zelensky received a conference call from his handlers telling him not to sign without a security guarantee from the US (boots on the ground). https://x.com/USAEdMartin/status/1895862712309334064
"Tell VZ there needs to be an electionbefore any more US taxpayer money is handed over"
But he’s Churchill reincarnated, so he actually gets four strikes instead of three. ;-P
