Right after Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky ramped up his demands for territorial integrity in the peace negotiations with Russia – something he will not get – now we see further proof that Kiev is determined to sabotage the peace process and stop it dead in its tracks.Last night, Ukrainian forces attacked and blew up a Sudzha gas metering station in Kursk region, the Russian Defense Ministry said.Like many other PR operations by the Ukrainians, its serves no discernible military purpose – and furthermore it was done in open defiance of the cease-fire on energy and infrastructure brokered by US President...

Gen. Jack Keane: We have to apply leverage against Putin . . [Fox News senior strategist analyst Gen. Jack Keane joins ‘America Reports’ to discuss Russia’s attack on Ukraine just hours after more ceasefire talks.]

MOSCOW, March 20 (Reuters) - Ukraine struck a major Russian strategic bomber airfield on Thursday with drones, triggering a huge blast and fire about 700 km (435 miles) from the front lines of the war, Russian and Ukrainian officials said. Videos verified by Reuters showed a huge blast spreading out from the airfield, wrecking nearby cottages. Russia's defence ministry said air defences had shot down 132 Ukrainian drones over Russian regions. The base in Engels, which dates back to Soviet times, hosts Russia's Tupolev Tu-160 nuclear-capable heavy strategic bombers, known unofficially as White Swans. Roman Busargin, governor of Saratov, said...

➖" Martial law and mobilization in Ukraine until May 9, 2025. The extension procedure is a vote in the Verkhovna Rada, followed by the president's signature. On May 9, VP and mobilization will not be extended! " - said MP Dmytruk . ▪️The Rada deputy also noted that "Zelensky is not even sure that he will be able to hold on to the regime in April!" ▪️He also claims that the relevant clarification has already been received by the TCC. ▪️However, the deputy assumes that this will not stop forced mobilization, since this is a huge influx of money for...

Volodymyr Zelensky has said Ukrainian and US officials will meet for peace talks in Saudi Arabia next Monday, after the Kremlin confirmed US-Russia talks there the same day. Ukraine's leader said Russian President Vladimir Putin "must stop making unnecessary demands that only prolong the war". Moscow's demands include a complete end to military assistance for Ukraine. Zelensky also warned that taking Nato membership for Ukraine off the table - something Putin has said was non-negotiable for peace - would be a "big gift to Russia". He also rebuffed claims by the White House that he discussed ceding ownership of Ukraine's...

Ukrainian forces backed by Western munitions and technology struck a major Russian strategic bomber airfield on Thursday with drones, 435 miles from the Ukrainian front lines. The strike ignited a massive explosion and sent a huge blast of fire into the air at Engels-2 airbase in Russia. Videos posted by Reuters showed a huge blast spreading out from the airfield and wrecking nearby cottages. Russia reportedly called this the largest drone attack ever.

Ukraine reports strikes just hours after Russian leader agreed to suspend attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure in a call with US president. Vladimir Putin rejected Donald Trump’s proposal for an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine after a “frank” phone call on Tuesday between the two presidents. Instead, the Russian leader agreed to a 30-day pause in attacks on energy plants and infrastructure and to hold further talks on stopping hostilities in the Black Sea.

QUESTION: Did your sources tell you that Putin would reject the complete cease-fire? You seem always to be spot on. FK ANSWER: In all honesty, you shouldn’t even need sources for that. The Europeans have been undermining Trump at every turn. Putin would be a fool to accept a complete caesar-fire because Zelensky is an untrustworthy guy taking orders from NATO and the Neocons against Trump. They told him to agree to a cease-fire to buy again time to reply and buy time for Europe to build up its military. Putin would be a fool not to see through this...

Trump was right. You can’t make peace deals with Ukraine as long as Zelensky is calling the shots. He can’t be trusted. Zelensky came to America in early March to sign a minerals agreement and agree to a ceasefire as a first step towards peace with Russia. But the entire signing ceremony blew up when Zelensky started acting squirrelly and reneged on his prior promises. Democrat Senator Chris Murphy knew this was going to happen before the meeting even started with Trump. .... Snip.... On Saturday the Ukrainian leader bragged that Ukraine is now holding long range missiles that can...

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has suggested that NATO’s Article 5 collective security protections be extended to Ukraine, without offering it full membership in the Alliance. She made this statement while speaking to journalists on the sidelines of the EU leaders' meeting in Brussels. "Clearly, the main issue is peace in Ukraine, and I believe we must all do everything we can to support the peace process, welcoming the U.S. initiative and those working towards peace. However, a just peace requires clear security guarantees," Meloni stated.

There are few things lower than harassing an innocent child, but a group of pro-Ukraine protesters angry at Vice-President JD Vance crossed that line today. Vance revealed on X Saturday afternoon that while he was enjoying a walk with his three-year-old daughter, these protesters decided to stalk them and shout at his little girl. Their sick antics understandably terrified her. “Today while walking my 3-year-old daughter a group of ‘Slava Ukraini’ protesters followed us around and shouted as my daughter grew increasingly anxious and scared,” Vance wrote.

Jack Poso 🇺🇸 @JackPosobiec BREAKING: NY Times refers to Trump assassin Ryan Routh as ‘crusader for causes large and small’ From thepostmillennial.com 11:52 AM · Sep 17, 2024

Ryan Routh, the suspected Donald Trump assassin, was interviewed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials when he returned from Ukraine last year and flagged for further investigation based on spontaneous comments he made to agents, but the Homeland Security Department declined to act, Just the News has confirmed. The June 2023 encounter with Routh at the Honolulu airport is confirmed in U.S. border entry records reviewed by Just the News and is latest tale of missed law enforcement opportunities dating 2019 to stop or further investigation the alleged would-be assassin. [snip] The memo stated that the Ukraine advocate was...

by Jeff ChildersFailed assassin Ryan Routh was in federal court yesterday, in a hearing quite logically called the “first appearance.” Fox covered the story under the headline, “Trump assassination attempt suspect laughs, smiles during first court appearance in Florida.” Routh was apparently cracking jokes with his public defender, which sounds annoying but could just be his way of managing anxiety. Details were sparsely provided, but this most interesting paragraph leaped out: Right away, we see some problems. For Portlanders, Routh claimed an annual income of $36,000 — far below the poverty level. Which means there is a lot of mysterious...

Hours after former President Donald Trump narrowly avoided a second assassination attempt, NBC News’ Lester Holt fanned the flames of violence by blaming Trump’s “rhetoric” rather than the suspected would-be assassin, who once praised Holt.

Guilford County Sheriff’s Office via AP The more we learn about Trump's would-be assassin, Ryan Routh, the more we scratch our heads trying to understand how this guy was not on a list, how he got so close, how nobody noticed some crazy man sitting in a but for 12 hours ... This second attempt on Trump's life has turned into a situation where the more we learn the more questions we have. Questions, we're afraid, the mainstream media isn't all that interested in getting answered. For example, Routh's financial situation makes NO SENSE. From Paul Sperry: How the Hell...

John Solomon @jsolomonReports Alleged assassin’s criminal record, foreign travel raise questions U.S. intel may be able to answer From justthenews.com 6:50 AM · Sep 17, 2024 ·

The Federal Bureau of Investigation has admitted that alleged Trump assassin Ryan Routh was on the FBI’s radar in 2019. In a press conference, Jeffrey Veltri, the FBI Special Agent in charge of the Miami field office that is investigating the attempted assassination against Trump, admitted the FBI received a “tip” on Routh in 2019. Veltri stated, “I can also share with you that Routh was a subject of a previous closed 2019 tip to the FBI where it was alleged he was a felon in possession of a firearm.” “The alleged complainant was interviewed and did not verify providing...

A second assassination attempt on the former President, and the feebs knew about him again. In fact, there are dozens of questions being raised, some conspiracy-driven, but many legit that should be answered under oath: "known wolf" on federal radar for previous threats; interviews with Newsweek and the NY Times as some sort of "recruiter" for Americans and other foreign fighters to travel to Ukraine; ties to the Azov Brigade in the Ukraine, a hotbed of nazi-ideology; flew from Hawaii to Florida a few days ago and managed to obtain a rifle in that time - even as a convicted...

I've put on my best Tin Foil Hat over the attempted assassination of President Trump. The article I posted from the NY Times details how a NY Times Reporter in Ukraine came into contact with Ryan Routh for an interview. This reporter details how thru his connections to someone in Afghanistan who had connections in Iran put him onto Ryan Routh. Here's another recent article about the Secret Service upping security around Trump because of an Iranian Plot https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/ap-report-secret-service-boosted-trump-protection-after-iranian-threat Yesterday on the Megyn Kelly Daily Podcast, she talked about allegations that Iran has infiltrated the Secret Service and has a...
