  1. Saw the following posted on another site! "How about sign the peace deal or no funding?" The following was my response: "How about being brought to justice for your crimes against humanity encouraged by the Maidan Coup with the US backing with the result being innocents killed in the Donbass leading to the Ukraine War with thousands now dead? Enough of this transactional nonsense with money being the only concern!"

  2. With the truth coming out about how USAID has been working against US interests for decades, the disinfectant of public scrutiny is now turning to our membership in – and generous funding of – international organizations like NATO and the United Nations. I have long advocated our exit from NATO. At the end of the Cold War, with its very reason for existence gone, NATO decided to look for other ways of stirring up trouble. First NATO involved itself in the first Gulf War and then it decided its mission should be to bomb Serbia to smithereens – in the name of “human rights.” I agree with the late Sen. Robert Taft, who argued at the time NATO was formed that we should not join the “Atlantic Alliance.” It has become much clearer these past few months just how far NATO has shifted away from US interests. Even though the United States funds a whopping 70 percent of NATO’s cost, our own NATO “allies” are working against the United States as President Trump attempts to pull us back from the brink of war with Russia. In Paris our “partners” pledged to continue their failed Ukraine policy and to ridicule the United States for looking to try something different. To add insult to injury, right at the center of the table in Paris was none other than the Secretary General of NATO himself, former Dutch politician Mark Rutte! The message was very clear: “we are working against you – we push war while you push peace – but you must keep footing the bill.” - LewRockwell

  3. MILITARY TUBE TODAY – Ukrainian forces are now facing unprecedented hardships, with large amounts of their equipment being burned on the highway to Sudzha. Russian forces have taken control of all supply routes in Kursk Region, capturing Sudzha-Sverdlikovo highway with fire, leaving the only route for Ukrainian troops to return to Sumy before the Sudzha cauldron closes, with up to 4,000 Ukrainian troops likely to be surrounded! This action highlights the increasingly intense border clashes, destroying Ukrainian military equipment as enemy troops try to probe Russian defenses as shown in footage released by the Russian Defense Ministry on March 3, 2025. The Tula Paratroopers are the main rapid response force, engaging in combat, countering this threat with precision strikes and ambush tactics. As a result, two Ukrainian infantry fighting vehicles and one D-20 152mm howitzer engaged near Sudzha, demonstrating Ukrainian increasing reliance on armor and artillery, were destroyed by drone strikes! Sudzha is one of the last places Kiev’s forces have taken advantage of for a while. Recently they tried to escape there after Russian troops continued to gradually liberate several settlements, including Novaya Sorochina which was liberated on March 3. However, they were not allowed to leave their defeated areas to reach Sudzha, the road was heavily attacked by FPV drones of the 40th Marines working, as in the footage released by Supladatov Official on Telegram Channel on March 1. Drones were launched by operators, hitting several vehicles even as Ukrainian troops evacuated their wounded comrades who were inside the vehicles. This battle confirms that Russian positions along the Sudzha route remain strong. Ukrainian forces continue to face difficulties in maintaining their offensive actions, they say Ukraine is “winning”, and are now in a semi-encirclement in Sudzha, which cannot be won. The latest wave shows Colombian mercenaries among the Ukrainian invading troops captured by Russian troops in Sudzha, while Ukrainian personnel losses in Kursk continue to skyrocket every day, reaching more than 64,845 soldiers, as reported by the Russian Defense Ministry on March 4.

  4. What a day. The fallout from Friday’s rumble in the Oval Office continues and it is not good news for Ukraine. Although Zelensky caught some love from a motley collection of Eurocrats over the weekend in London, it was meaningless. More empty promises from European countries with no military clout and floundering economies, all vowing to support Ukraine, maybe. The UK’s Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, promised to provide troops and planes to secure a peace in Ukraine and then, moments later, conceded it would only be done if the US provided firm security guarantees. Trump already has said, “NO,” to that proposal and is not going to reverse position. I think it is unlikely that the Kievan Cocaine Cowboy will wipe the white powder from his nostrils, clear his head, and apologize to Mr. Trump. Zelensky is too far gone. Zelensky will bear the blame in Ukraine for alienating the Trump administration and you can bet that senior intelligence and military officers, who will now be denied assistance they were counting on, will turn their wrath on Zelensky. Whatever tantrum or defiant show of resistance Zelensky decides to present to the outside world, that will be short-lived. Russia will likely further intensify its military operations against the Ukrainian forces, which already are suffering significant losses all along the line of contact. And the prospect for a quick collapse of Ukraine’s military appears more plausible as compared to the situation one month past. When the full truth of US financial support for Ukraine is eventually revealed, Americans will be shocked to learn that USAID played a pervasive and powerful role in funneling money to whip up public enthusiasm for Ukraine and to entice mercenaries to enlist. In addition, USAID funding to media outlets in Ukraine was a critical element in pushing memes proclaiming Ukraine as a democracy, Zelensky as a popular leader and Russia as military and economic basket case. With Trump pulling the plug on that operation, the facade of lies is being exposed and starting to crumble. - sonar21

  5. A Russian man is facing treason charges for allegedly selling sensitive information about the nation’s military to Ukrainian intelligence, according to the Federal Security Service (FSB). The suspect, whose name remains undisclosed, contacted the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) last year, offering cooperation as a surveillance operative, the FSB stated on Tuesday. Since then, he has reportedly provided the SBU with intelligence concerning several locations near Voronezh, including a military base and ammunition depots on the outskirts of the central Russian city. In a video shared by the Russian agency, he also admitted to monitoring military aircraft take-offs and landings for Ukrainian agents. Currently in custody, the accused faces severe penalties, potentially life imprisonment, if convicted, the FSB said. The SBU plays a crucial role in the Ukraine conflict, including conducting sabotage operations and targeted assassinations on Russian territory. - RT
