Sure it's grotesque to see Trump lying and gaslighting about Russia-Ukraine. But it's far more disgusting to see all the other politicians and journalists who KNOW he's lying say "oh that's just Trump being Trump" - sweeping it under the rug, as if truth doesn't matter at all.
The political leaders of Europe are every bit as guilty as Caligula Trump. It is 11 years since Russia invaded Ukraine and we've now had 3 years of full-scale war, and these fucking people are STILL dragging their feet about defense.
They have had plenty of time to do something, but they kicked the can down the road, waiting for someone else to come in... and now that "someone" has come in, but instead of negotiating an end to the war he is trying to plunder what's left of Ukraine, acting like a grave robber... But that is on Biden and the European leaders for not doing anything but "wait and see" for three whole years.

"The inflation fire was already hot and now with war-driven inflation added to the mix, it will grow even hotter, setting off a scramble by the world’s central banks to pull back their stimulus earlier than expected," Chris Rupkey, chief economist at FWDBONDS, wrote in an email. "A spike in inflation rates has preceded economic recessions historically and this time prices have soared to levels that once again pose a threat to growth." Given the pro-privacy stance of the platform, it’s taken as a given that it’ll be used for a number of reasons, not all of them good. And Telegram has been attached to a fair few scandals related to terrorism, sexual exploitation and crime. Back in 2015, Vox described Telegram as “ISIS’ app of choice,” saying that the platform’s real use is the ability to use channels to distribute material to large groups at once. Telegram has acted to remove public channels affiliated with terrorism, but Pavel Durov reiterated that he had no business snooping on private conversations. Following this, Sebi, in an order passed in January 2022, established that the administrators of a Telegram channel having a large subscriber base enticed the subscribers to act upon recommendations that were circulated by those administrators on the channel, leading to significant price and volume impact in various scrips. "For Telegram, accountability has always been a problem, which is why it was so popular even before the full-scale war with far-right extremists and terrorists from all over the world," she told AFP from her safe house outside the Ukrainian capital. In February 2014, the Ukrainian people ousted pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych, prompting Russia to invade and annex the Crimean peninsula. By the start of April, Pavel Durov had given his notice, with TechCrunch saying at the time that the CEO had resisted pressure to suppress pages criticizing the Russian government.
