  1. Who is more corrupt Schumer or Zelensky? Both are full of ….
    Propaganda!

  2. billions later… and all they need is artillery… how sweet… DUHH.. THEY ALREADY GOT THE FN $$$$$… BUY YUR ARTILLERY…DUMA$$$ES

  3. I seriously can not comprehend how people can not comprehend for the life of them that there literally isn't going to be any world war or nuclear war. Every single solitary thing that is happening in this world is ALL to keep humanity divided obedient slaves through fear. How can they achieve their New World agenda if they destroy everything? Come on, people wake tf up already and stop buying into these fear tactics bs scenarios. It's a psychological war, NOT a physical war. WAKE UP!!!

  4. WOKE DEMOCRACY or "installed" Democracy, is a twisted abomination used by Tyranny.

  5. bro STOP GIVING MONEY TO UKRAINE

  6. PNAC proxy puppets, PNAC proxy war

  7. It’s a giant con for that coke head zelensky

  8. It would be easier to accept sending actual military equipment and supplies, the problem is that for two years the U.S. taxpayers have been paying ALL the salaries and pensions of Ukraine's government and military, that's crap at a time when the U.S. is being invaded.

  9. And America should just give Alaska? Putin wants that land back too. Ukraine is 1/10th the size of Russia. They have done an AMAZING job fighting and with one hand tied behind their back (not allowed to use foreign weapons to attack on Russian soil). Listen to Putin's sppeches. They haven't achieved their goals, and their goal is to restore Russia to at some random point in history where it included most of Europe and Alaska.

  10. Ja nie chcę miec z Ukraincami nic wspólnego, majdan byl niekegalnym puczem a ukraincy sa w rękach kijowskich militarystów którzy walczą do ostatniego ukraińca

  11. I stand with Ukraine! Johnson has blood on his hands. 🇺🇲🇺🇦🇺🇲

  12. USA lost war, 3 -4 trillions lost from 2008 – 2024, USA has 35 trilloins dept, USA needs to print another 35 trillions to win war against Russia. nobody will support Ukraine, because Germany due to USA blasted NORD STREAM, has no cheap gas, if Germans collaps, domino effect in EU. Who will support Ukraine war for nxt 3 – 5 yeras ? Germany ? No. USA, if USA can not support Israel ? No. So ? Who ? Hungary ?

  13. Love for Ukraine. Always and forever. A Muslim from the USA. Walking in the beautiful streets of Kyiv will always be one of the best memories of my life.

  14. What percentage is Schumer skimming from the $60 billion?

  15. The USA literally wanted their time , respect and money from supporting Ukraine just back out already this isn’t gonna get any better…

  16. We need to send our congress and everyone in the white house into the Ukrainian frontlines. That is the only aid package I would support.

  17. Richard Engel clearly works for the CIA. This is not reporting. NATO w/the help of the CIA provoked this war and now they're losing and making excuses and denying everything like always. When has NATO ever actually stood for defense?

  18. I believe Putin is dragging to see how Ukraine is going to get support,if putin went all out what will happen.why not the world push for peace.is it pride ego or other motives, people are dying doesn't it matter more.people of this earth take side with peace.

  19. Not true, Ukraine is going to retake Mariupol by the end of last Summer.
    Stop trying to make me lose hope.

  20. "We don't understand what happened…?" said acting Mayor.

    Check up on Afghanistan and you will understand why. Also learn a bit about America. It is a divided country with very divided political system. Iron-clad guarantee is also conditional.

  21. It's amazing how Russia is still defending more than 30 nation's

  22. They need to be working on a peace deal.

  23. Warmongering propaganda

  24. If sending money to Ukraine is a target of criticism, I think we can impose economic sanctions on Russia.
    I'm sure Republicans won't complain about this.

  25. Zelenskyy regime is on its last legs and it will unlikely survive until the end of the year. Well, it's a quote from The Time article. Zelenskyy top advisers say about him: “He deludes himself,” one of his closest aides tells me in frustration . “We’re out of options. We’re not winning. But try telling him that. It is immovable, verging on the messianic.” One Austrian artist was in a similar state in 1945. Zelenskyy "achievements" to date: 500,000 Ukrainians are dead, 3x that mangled and crippled for life, half of Ukraine's population is living as refugees scattered all over Europe and Russia right now, they're drafting women because they've run out of men to kidnap off the streets, gyms and public transport. NYT wrote about these mass kidnappings that were happening only in Zelenskyy Ukraine and Hitler's Germany in 1945 in an article ‘People Snatchers’.

  26. Russia #2 in global military power. All their technology and yearly televised parades of their capabilities.Yet, your power was exposed in the worst way by Ukraine. The heart, strength and will of the Ukrainians deserves the respect and support from every country in the world, especially fighting off the #2 "almighty" in almost 2 yrs now….js🤷🏽‍♂️

  27. The Republicain party is using Russia to play 'Culture Wars' and risk world peace.
    Would you like to give up 20% of YOUR country, to a foreign invader? REMINDER. The money spent on Ukraine buys the US military NEW weapons so that the old weapons can go to Ukraine. US repulicans are so IGNORANT, of anything outside the little bubble they live in.

    Also, if you let Russia take over Ukraine, it does not end there. How can you be so IGNORANT and short sighted.

  28. Zelensky must be running out of cocaine.

  29. Fight until us taxes payers bankrupt

  30. Quit the BS. Ukraine has been losing for months. They are literally drafting 50 YOs. It's not about the ammo. Pure BS western media crap. The aid will do nothing but prolong the war aka making Ukraine suffer longer… if 250b worth of aid from half the world cant stop Russia, what will 50-60b blocked aid do? Ukraine can't win, its unwinnable.

  31. Is the Republicans doesn't get don't get paid to the ukrainians I guarantee you they won't have jobs on the next election season I guarantee it cuz they can't defend somebody else's democracy they certainly can't defend ours

  32. 🛑 STOP dying for America!!!😅

  33. Russian political ideology rolled back to before the 1917 revolution. Now Russia is a white (monarchistic), not red (communist) anymore. So Russia don't care post WW2 resolutions.

  34. Send the new migrants to fight….

  35. Lester , LLIHS. read backwards, USA Is history

  36. They left a message in English 😅

  37. If Russia runs over Ukraine then they’ll move towards Israel

  38. Democrats have started 3 wars in 3 years

  39. What happened to "unwavering" support? The USA has proven that when you need them the most, they will not be there. US Politicians putting their own agendas and internal politics first, betraying Ukraine and the very ideals the US was founded upon: The right to live free from oppression. Shame on them. It fills me with sadness as an Englishman. Britain will stand firm and stand united in the face of rising evil in Europe as we always do, but it feels like the free world is losing it's most important ally.

  40. Good. Let's stop sending them money to lose a war

  41. Marxist warmongers. Have they told you Russia is trying to arrange peace talks but the US and NATO are blocking it? Of course not, they want to bleed Americans dry.

  42. I'm glad the US is in gridlock. Politicians were spending our youth into oblivion with funding constant war, destruction. It appears that most of our leaders are a bunch of geriatric children.

  43. NATO agression got us this war. Democrats and Republican rino's are why we arecstill in it. Ukraine lost this war a long time ago.
