Well they have the power to limit them, Block funding and legally challenge them. We will have the power of the purse, we will have the power to levy investigations, leveraging the Congressional review act.

Zelensky warns diesel deal will lead to further sanctions relief
Zelensky says Ukraine cannot accept the diesel deal and predicts gas deals and further sanctions relief for Russia will follow, also addressing a Financial Times report on a US proposal to shift frozen Russian assets to a Washington-overseen vehicle.
“In my view, we cannot accept these diesel deals, these agreements, because gas deals will follow. I am absolutely certain of this. Sanctions will be lifted on other things as well after gas.”

Not true trump is unique he only cares about trump. I believe other leaders care more about America. Trumps blunt talk doesn’t reveal any truth just a loud obnoxious guy.

Oh wow. Good thing news media, entertainment media and social media have zero effect on people's motivation and awareness in the context of organizing. "People organized well before the internet existed, how did they do it?" Really fucking stupid to pretend there is no relevant influence from the Information Age and digital computer. Like…

The US only became a flawed democracy when Trump got elected in 2016. Democracy can be only be upheld if the people elect leaders that support democracy. Parliamentary systems for example are especially vulnerable to a partisan takeover like the one in the US. If the parliament and the prime minister are both majority controlled by a party that is…

Man so its wild to see that video, not only because her perspective, in hindsight, was correct, but also just to see the difference between him then and now. He was always full of shit but he is absolutely out of his marbles now compared to then.

If this was to happen, which I think is unlikely, that will mean that anyone who could stop him and chooses not to is also a traitor and needs to be tried for treason.

They are literally just doing it so Trump can rage at Ukraine when Ukraine blows up Russian data centers, just like Trump's imaginary refinery ceasefire was all about.
-
Dear God, I hope someone in the US has some sense enough to point out how bad this would be. Maybe point out that it would give the Russians full access to Trump's hidden secrets? Trump doesn't know the first thing about computers.

You bots are like clockwork with the deflections and whataboutisms. Like the main difference between republicans and democrats is that democrats know their party is weak and corrupt and there needs to be some serious house cleaning, but it’s traditional corruption driven by greed for the most part, and corruption will always be part of politics or…

Boy oh boy are Americans in for a shock after midterms. How do they not realize that midterms will change nothing regardless of the outcome? Oh sure, vote! Absolutely. Always vote. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, but maybe realize that you don't live in a democracy anymore and plan accordingly.

Unfortunately, I dont think near enough people care. If the Trump experience has taught us anything, its that America may be beautiful, but the people sure ain't.

They won’t, because simply put, they don’t give a shit. They are a country built on being as selfish and apathetic as possible, the only thing that ever changes their mind are gas and food prices.

The issue is that the right is fully pushing that as a good thing. Which some people on the right are actually believing. The bots continue to spread misinformation about Ukraine and Russia. Either bots, or people who believe bots, are fully on board. They think helping Ukraine is a bad thing. They think Ukraine is just pocketing the money instead…

USA halt, Verräter an den angeblich eigenen Werten und all ihren Verbündeten. Am Ende werden die USA alleine stehen und verlieren. Leider verliert auch die Idee der freiheitlichen demokratischen Staaten dadurch. Noch mehr Verrat wird aus den USA über die Welt schwappen.

Jesus Christ... thankfully these projects take so long the current traitors will be out of office and we'll shut all this shit down. So much work to be done. It'll take decades if not life times to undo it all. I'm still sad that far too many Americans still don't see the magnitude of the problem. This has been historic levels of disaster for the…

I am pretty sure if present day Americans were in charge back in 1776 they would be begging George III to rise taxes even higher and take away even more representation

How the fuck did the US just go from Russia's biggest adversary to suddenly being close friends? ALL BECAUSE of a single change in one president's mind? I swear after this whole debacle when Trump is finally gone, the whole world better rethink this idea of a democracy model. All the US has done is now proven how stupid and flawed democracy is as…

I’m on your side, realistically you can’t do much other than vote, protest and persuade others to vote. Everyone blames Americans for Trump but what could I do in your shoes. Nothing except for what i said. The failure is the system and possibly the deference to the constitution, the system has allowed Trump almost carte blanche to do as he likes.

America in 2026: - protecting child rapists - sanctioning the international criminal court - giving the rich tax breaks while the poor can’t make ends meet - pushing oil over sustainable energy when nature and animals are already suffering - threatening decade-long allies - embracing fascism and racism as policy - hunt and kill their own people in…

The press could hold him to account, the judiciary could uphold the law, Congress could grow a spine. People could have voted against him in the last election.
