John Bolton says Trump wouldn't have stood in Putin's way if a Russian invasion of Ukraine had happened during his term

John Bolton: Not accurate to say 'Trump's behavior somehow deterred the Russians'

Trump ‘barley knew where Ukraine was’: John Bolton pushes back on Newsmax host

I realize that most of you will just disparage Bolton, and dismiss what he says off-hand... but he was in a position to have observed firsthand, that which he is talking about.

Will you please stop hugging Trump's sack?

You can assign an anti-Trump agenda to basically anyone who ever worked in the Trump administration. Hell, I've seen former Attorney General, William Barr, called both a "Never Trumper" and a "RINO" in the last few days, just for being critical of Trump. However, Bolton's actual analysis is rooted in facts and that's why I don't expect any of you to address his comments on their substance, You will only do what Trump does, and personally attack the messenger, while ignoring the message, That is exactly what this post above just did.

.... and comments from a recent National Security Advisor = something with value.

They're not saying anything like that. That would defeat the point of them leading from behind?

And oh my goodness enough with "Left vs Right" bs. It has jack to do with that...
Obama's administration were far more aggressive militarily in ACTUAL presentation than any other President the past 30 years. Yet, people swear Trump and Bush were war mongers.

This isn't some popularity contest. United States has been the most ruthless government in power for quite some time now. We only care about winning.

There are videos of John McCain speaking to the Ukrainian people encouraging a revolution in either 2013 or 2014. What business did McCain have to go over there in the first place?

I think he is worried Trump is going to win the next presidential election.

This obsession they have with Trump is going to backfire and actually cause more people up want to vote for him. Plus, their man and current leader Biden is a total disaster. And to top it off their potential backup plan as of now is Hillary. What a mess.

Chechen hit squad sent to murder Zelenskyy 'eliminated,' top Ukrainian defense official says

A team of elite Chechen commandos sent into Ukraine to hunt down and assassinate President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was "eliminated" by security forces, a top Kyiv defense official told national media.

Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council Oleksiy Danilov reportedly told the Ukraine 24 TV channel that defense forces countered two death squads sent after Zelenskyy Tuesday, according to a translation of his remarks.

He said Ukrainian forces got intelligence about a planned attack on Zelenskyy and destroyed an elite Chechen unit.

"The special operation that was to be carried out directly by the Kadyrovites to eliminate our president is fully known to us today, and I can say that we received information from representatives of the FSB, who today have no desire to take part in this bloody war," he said.

Noice. I hate those Fing Chechens.

That's not necessarily true. You still have a say regardless of whether you vote or not. We have the right not to vote in this country. I chose not to vote in 2012 because the choice of candidates that election were garbage. 2012 is also about the time I really woke up when it came to politics in this country.

I also strongly regret my vote for McCain in 2008. Didn't realize then what kind of man he really was back then.

We also had 3 uniparty candidates as opposition from 2004 to 2012. Kerry, McCain, and Romney. All 3 of those guys have been and were meddling in the affairs of Ukraine and Russia since at least 2013. Maybe even longer than that. They didn't need to be elected president to remain powerful.

That is an interesting observation with regards to Kerry and McCain.

Just saw there are hundreds of Ukrainians (nuclear power plant workers) gathered on the road leading into the facility in a face off with Russia.

Anything short of boots on the ground or a nuke first strike would have been not enough. All of this talk about a soccer player not fighting and we have madmen like John Bolton that can plunge us into nuclear annihilation.

Ukraine’s Air Force, along with units of the army and territorial defense, destroyed a large Russian military convoy near the city of Bashtanka in Ukraine’s southern Mykolaiv region. Military bloggers reported that the convoy contained up to 800 vehicles.

100% CONFIRMED NEWS

Big boom if true. Seems like the South Ukraine area may have less Russian air defense.

EDIT:

Staggering claims made about Ukrainian drone strikes this evening, but we have visual confirmation of at least some.🇺🇦

The claim is around 200 (!!!) Russian vehicles destroyed in a series of TB2 drone attacks.

This picture (from a DJI consumer drone) seems to be genuine.

This jives with this news from yesterday...

Ukraine increases supplies of Bayraktar UAVs from Turkey
