Jack Poso 🇺🇸 @JackPosobiec BREAKING: HERE IS THE FULL EXCHANGE BETWEEN TRUMP, ZELENSKY, AND JD VANCE 12:32 PM · Feb 28, 2025

The first words spoken by President Donald Trump to Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky as he arrived at the White House on Friday was apparently ribbing him for having come to a formal meeting in athleisure. President Donald Trump met Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky at the West Wing lobby porte-cochère on Friday morning for talks and reportedly the signing of his critical minerals deal. The meeting of foreign leaders has itself become part of President Trump’s politicking, with Britain’s Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer warmly welcomed on the step on Thursday, but France’s Emmanuel Macron snubbed by not being met at...

as they meet in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC, February 28, 2025 (SAUL LOEB / AFP) Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is leaving the White House early after a contentious Oval Office meeting with US President Donald Trump, a White House official says. The announcement comes after Trump and US Vice President JD Vance berated the Ukrainian president. In a post on Truth Social, Trump repeats that Zelensky was “disrespectful.” “I have determined that President Zelenskyy is not ready for Peace if America is involved, because he feels our involvement gives him a big advantage in...

It's a video. It's not long, but it is hard to watch.

U.S. Vice President JD Vance put down President Volodymyr Zelensky after he dismissed the effectiveness of American diplomacy, forcefully telling the Ukrainian he was acting without respect. Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived at the White House on Friday for talks with President Donald Trump and, it is thought, to sign the much-discussed minerals deal. As is customary, Trump and his senior colleagues sat down with Zelensky in the oval office with press cameras present for a brief discussion before the real talks would begin in private, but a beligerent attitude from Zelensky derailed proceedings before they even began. Responding to...

Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) claimed on CNN’s “News Central” that some of her Republican colleagues privately say President Donald Trump’s actions on Ukraine have gone too far. Shaheen said, “Vladimir Putin is a murderous dictator. He is a thug who understands one thing, and that is strength, and anytime he thinks he can get the better of Donald Trump, he is going to do that.” She continued, “We have ten Democrats and ten Republicans, a fifth of the senate on that resolution, because there is bipartisan support in the United States Senate for Ukraine. I think most of us were...

That's what im hearing. They wont be signing anything

It is no understatement to say that this was, for Zelensky coming here today, the most critical diplomatic and political moment for him and his country since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine three years ago. This has descended into an extraordinary and unprecedented moment of tension, exploding in the Oval Office. Basically, a public dressing down of the Ukrainian leader by Donald Trump and Vice-President JD Vance It began by Vance saying to Zelensky that the war had to be ended through diplomacy. What kind of diplomacy, Zelensky replied. He was then accused by the vice-president of being disrespectful. This...

Trump “We had a very meaningful meeting in the White House today. Much was learned that could never be understood without conversation under such fire and pressure. It’s amazing what comes out through emotion, and I have determined that President Zelenskyy is not ready for Peace if America is involved, because he feels our involvement gives him a big advantage in negotiations. I don’t want advantage, I want PEACE. He disrespected the United States of America in its cherished Oval Office. He can come back when he is ready for Peace.”

JD speaks for all of us who are sick of funding this corrupt dictator

President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance argued with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday in a tense exchange in the Oval Office over Kyiv’s war with invading Russian forces. Vance accused Zelenskyy, who had traveled to Washington, D.C., to meet with Trump and sign a deal on rare minerals that has become a crucial part of the U.S. continuing its support of Ukraine, of being disrespectful. Trump at one point told Zelenskyy, “You’re gambling with World War III.” The press event went off the rails after Trump was asked about his posture toward Russian President Vladimir Putin, which...

Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky's Oval Office meeting erupted into an unprecedented and blistering row. During the spectacular and extended bust up, Trump accused Zelensky of 'gambling with World War III.' Tempers flared with Vice President J.D. Vance also weighing in to give Zelensky a dressing down. The extraordinarily angry confrontation threatened to overshadow talks for a ceasefire in the Ukraine-Russia war.

AWESOME VIDEO!......................

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in the United States on Thursday ahead of talks with US President Donald Trump on an agreement to develop minerals and rare earths, Interfax Ukraine news agency reported. The two world leaders are expected to discuss the rare earths deal, protection from Russia and how European nations can share the burden of the costs of security for Ukraine. “I want to coordinate our position with the American position. The war is in Ukraine, so for me, the Ukrainian position is the priority,” Zelensky said during a press conference in Kyiv Wednesday. The deal will grant...

US President Donald Trump extend for one year certain sanctions introduced against Russia earlier in connection with the situation in Ukraine, the White House said in released documents, APA reports quoting TASS. Restrictions introduced by Washington against Moscow by previous administrations in executive orders in 2014, 2018 and 2022 and pertaining to reunification with Crimea and to Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics are meant. These restrictive measures "must continue in effect beyond March 6, 2025," Trump said. "The actions and policies addressed in these Executive Orders continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign...

A suggestion by the Trump administration’s top negotiator that an Ukraine peace deal would be based on talks conducted in Istanbul nearly three years ago has buoyed Russian officials and spooked Ukraine and its backers. To Kyiv, recent remarks by Steve Witkoff appeared to embrace the Kremlin’s key, and incorrect, talking point over the past three years: that Ukraine and Russia were about to strike a peace deal in Istanbul, and that Kyiv walked away from an agreement under pressure from Western politicians, such as then-British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly demanded that any future...
