The Ukraine Recovery Conference started today in Italy.


Zelenskyy just addressed the conference:

EU is investing in Ukraine like crazy, while broke AF Russians are watching their economy rot and their country fall apart. Good times.

Country bumpkin visits La Jolla?

Doing a fundraiser over the 4th and getting a fake award from the reactionary Claremont Institute For Morons. Got spotted in University Heights going to a dinner at a famous sushi restaurant where he got booed by a crowd. Also fun how conservatives never vacation in that "real America" they're always talking about.

I am not convinced.
Between mass slaughter, incarceration, and re-location, the newly conquered lands would soon be minority Ukrainian at best. Russia would fill Ukraine with Russians.
What Russians? Their population can't even fill Russia. At best they can dilute Ukraine's population by scattering them across Russia.

They are frequently down that way. Vance's wife is from San Diego. Her mom is a provost at UCSD who apparently was instrumental in implementing their DEI policies. LOL.

I forgot how well did Russia did in Afghanistan? Oh yea. They did not

Funny enough you must be Russian cause you never comment on this probably because it is blocked in russia


Quote from a russian

A fucking merry go round with heavy machine guns…

Talking about an Apache. Yea. Like a 30 ish year old tech

But if you cannot watch the video. Lemme give the summary of it.

Russia attacks a small American force.
USA calls in reinforcements
Russians get fucked sideways
Russia gives the survivors participation medals


That was 40 years ago bud. 40 years ago.

Afghanistan was what, 4 years ago?

Getting defeated by the Houthis was just a few months ago.

Get with the times please.

If nothing else it seems like he's exhausted Trump's interest and limited attention span in lengthy chats about nothing.

In Trump's troubled dreams he's sneering at Putin riding bareback into the sunset with his precious gold medal Nobel Peace Prize and the million bucks that goes with it.

edit - Every single time Putin sends a missile, drone and meat bag into Ukraine is another bitch slap to Trump's face, telling Trump just who the alpha male is in their freakish relationship.

The video I posted was from 2018.

Not that long ago

Why did you not comment on that

Wow the US military killed a few Russian mercenaries. Great job. And you’re point is?

Now let’s see how many American mercenaries have been in Ukraine by Russian forces:


How about trying to make a coherent point next time.

An interesting development. Current weapons going are from PDAs issued by Biden or USAI supply contracts.
There is a non-zero chance that they could ok stuff that the previous admin would not.

Trump to use presidential authority to send weapons to Ukraine, sources say

WASHINGTON, July 10 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump for the first time since returning to office will send weapons to Kyiv under a presidential power frequently used by his predecessor, two sources familiar with the decision said on Thursday, a move suggesting new interest by the president in defending Ukraine.
More than three years after Russia's invasion of its neighbor, Trump's team will identify arms from U.S. stockpiles to send to Ukraine under the Presidential Drawdown Authority, the sources said, with one saying they could be worth around $300 million.

Someone's crying himself to sleep at night over >1million Russian casualties. :laughing: 30k dead orcs, every month. Damn those Ukrainians defending themselves from genocide!

That is so Russian Lapdog like... this is beyond pathetic to be fair.
He seems to be some sort of Russian troll but I guess a poorly paid one.

I don’t think he realizes that we are all laughing at him.

Edit: that being said from my time in Russia they are not that different. They desperately, desperately want Americans and westerners to view them as equals. It kills them that we don’t.
