In his State of the Union address Trump freely made up fantasy claims and falsehoods (who could have guessed).
Factcheck (in German):
Marco Rubio on CNN gave at least a PLAUSIBLE explanation of the Zelensky treatment. But if you heard what Putin expects before talks can even start (give up conquered land, no NATO membership) it will be hard to get anywhere with this.
Because of Trump's appeasement Putin now sees a path forward for his agression. By erratically trying to brute force a "peace deal" Trump actually made it harder to end this war in a way Ukrainians can accept.
50 years ago today, on 3rd March 1975, the Homebrew Computer Club gathered a bunch of computer hobbyists in Menlo Park, California. This club attracted you Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs. The rest is history!

Actually NO surprise how incompetent this ”deal maker“ Trump is. He wanted to blackmail Selensky into selling his assets for nothing in return.
A missed opportunity to confirm the international peace order that the US invested 80 years to build.
The question is: Is the world safer if Russia is allowed to violate the UN Charta and aggressively occupy a neighbouring country? There'll be no reason for Russia to stop. No reason for China to spare Taiwan. No reason for anyone feeling bound to UN resolutions.
The world will NOT be safer!

No Alzheimers research an NIH in the US anymore. Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.
This is getting worse by the day. This is a cleptocracy.

Seems they were succsessful!
A former KGB agent named Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov claimed in 1984 that Russia has a long-term goal of ideologically subverting the U.S. He described the process as “a great brainwashing” that has four basic stages.

How Hungarians are manipulated: To suggest AFD "narrowly" lost to CDU they present the results with CSU values separated from CDU. This is a spin. CDU and CSU always have to be added together because they are a union (CDU not competing against CSU in Bavaria and CSU against CDU outside of Bavaria)
