Zero Hedge is anti-American propaganda
Seems it may have worked though:
Here is a quote to illustrate to other people how cold, how glib and how dismissive the attitude is for some over real people getting brutally killed. Donald, and this other Donald too apparently, don’t give a fuck about any of that. Getting paid shakedown money is all he seems to care about. Fucking despicable.
Americans always used to root for the underdog. It’s been such a deep part of our culture from the beginning, because we were once the underdog, taking on a huge empire that wanted to subjugate and plunder us.
Now Ukraine is the underdog. Palestine is the underdog.
The suits in Washington today don’t care about any of that. Right or wrong don’t matter any more, just profit by any means possible, including the wholesale slaughter of entire peoples. Fucking despicable is not strong enough to describe it. Makes me just about weep.
Former US ambassador to russia:
Coming out openly on the bad guy’s side is not working for peace. Pushing for the destruction and end of Ukranian sovereignty is not working for peace.

Founded by a eugenicist and a white nationalist, you can’t really get any more neo-nazi than that.
This is straight up no doubt white supremacist propaganda.
You might think that was so long ago it’s not relevant to the current situation.
Farm Aid: 40 Years of Action for Family Farmers and the Good Food Movement In the 1980s, family farmers faced a crisis the likes of which hadn’t been seen since the Great Depression. Plummeting farm product prices and land values, rising interest rates, troubled credit markets and unfair lending practices pushed tens of thousands of farms out of business, forcing millions of people off their land.
It was in this context that Willie Nelson, joined by John Mellencamp and Neil Young, organized a groundbreaking concert in 1985 to raise awareness and funds to help America’s family farmers, sparking a family farm movement that continues to this day.
That continues to this day. That’s because the American agricultural industry never completely recovered from Reagan’s supply-side economics. Did the “free market” eventually adjust to create the most efficient and best system for American agriculture?
No. The most expensive farm subsidies ever and Willie Nelson’s charity concerts combined did not get things back to pre Reagan levels.
History rhymes: farmers voted for Reagan, farmers voted for Trump. It’s happening again, but this time it will be worse.
Oh hey Cronyism- that’s the other word I was trying to think of.
Missouri cattle producer Skylar Holden posted a series of videos on TikTok, saying he had signed a contract with USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service for $240,000 for improved water lines, fences and a well.
But USDA officials called him recently to tell him his contract with NRCS’s Environmental Quality Incentives Program, or EQIP, was frozen, he said. It’s not clear when the funds will be released, Holden said in his video
“I’ve already done a bunch of the work, already paid for the material and the labor, so I’m out all that cost,” Holden said in one video, adding, “We are possibly going to lose our farm if NRCS doesn’t hold up their contract with us.”

Note: this farmer voted for trump
I see. Thanx for that context.
For more context, before any of that happened, Trump got impeached for illegally withholding congress approved aid to Ukraine to pressure them into digging up damaging info on Biden.
Of course weak-willed republican sycophants voted to clear him of any wrongdoing but orange bastard is perhaps still mad that zelensky wouldn’t lie for him.
Fascist bootlickers are counting on us forgetting that fact but I havent forgotten.
Maybe it was trump’s illegal behavior that had more to do with “creating a scenario” than anything Zelensky did.
Well, but he’s also a liar, which is 100% in line with nazi behavior, so your argument doesn’t really hold up.
Regardless, participation in nazi activity is enough to sell it for me.
From wikipedia
Rutte has repeatedly urged sending more weapons to Ukraine.[96][97] He said that any future peace talks with Russia should be led by Ukraine from a position of strength.[98]
So here’s some fact check: this whole thing started with an unserious demand by orange leader for 500bn payment for what a previous president already did - and Ukraine never received anywhere near 500bn in aid from the previous president. Is this the art of the deal? Idiot.
I saw the president of the US openly and firmly coming out on the side of russia and north korea. In this conflict, russia and north korea are the bad guys. Somehow it’s on Zelensky to “repair the relationship” with the US? Must be backwards day.
How is this breaking news? Fat old hamburder president has a doctor appointment?
I guess this is interesting because nearly a third of Americans lack access to primary care services, including routine checkups, while 40 percent of U.S. adults say they’re delaying care or going without because of the financial costs.
I read through the article, am I missing something? Is my reading comprehension recently gone down hill? It doesn’t seem to reveal what horrible thing Zelensky did before the cameras started rolling, other than fail to be sufficiently thankful for a shit deal with no security guarantee.
I don’t think that will happen here, but I see your point. It’s not actually funny.
Like a lot of people, I was (am) so very upset by what just happened. I had been angry over a lot of things, and this seems more infuriating. I am so goddamned sad for the the needless suffering and death that has been caused, and continues. I am afraid, I am fearful in my certainty that worse is yet to come.
I thought that by bringing up previous bullshit as context for current bullshit, maybe I could make some kind of point or relieve my overwhelming feelings of anger and grief for what seems like the collapse of both my country and also Ukraine. It didn’t work.
I don’t think the time for jokes is passed, but you’re right, it isn’t funny. Thank you for saying so.

Very relatable.
MI VOLAS DIRI DANKON!!..
As has been said, 30. This is why my aunt Sharon has claimed to be 29 for as long as I can remember. She’s the only 29 year old in the nursing facility.
I’d ask them if they wear a seat belt when they drive.
This got a lol from me.
Oh well never mind then, I thought it was someone else.
