Trump doesn’t feel any obligation to defend Ukraine. It is immoral to spend our military resources protecting countries we have no treaty obligations to because the American ppl didn’t give you consent to do so.

17/17 Conclusion:
This list is far from exhaustive
Whether by design or delusion, Trump’s record shows a clear pattern: undermining Ukraine, empowering russia, and aligning US policy with Kremlin interests.
Add his trips to the USSR and russia, and it all looks very suspicious

Good article.
" Putin’s aggression is focused on the U.S. and all its allies. He’s spending millions of dollars, bombarding European voters with manipulative social media and disinformation campaigns on a mass scale. It’s a new type of warfare on democracy that eliminates the need to roll tanks into capitals.
Putin’s constantly evolving playbook is the result of his failed military campaign to capture Kyiv and strangle Ukrainian democracy. He ran into Ukraine’s indominable resilience, and as a result, he began deploying a long-standing Russian (and Soviet) strategy to destroy Western democracies from within by supporting and cultivating pro-Putin political candidates. And TikTok, Telegram and other social media channels are now weapons in this new kind of war."
"Never far from his KGB roots, the Russian president realizes public opinion can be manipulated and shaped by political proxies and propaganda beholden to Russia’s strongman.
" The Romanian battle was won, but Putin’s war on democracy continues. Who’s next on his list? This fall’s elections in Moldova, Estonia, Georgia, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic and other European nations are all ripe for interference. But before his propaganda can take hold, it’s imperative to crack down on his violations of election laws."

The Russian authorities have closed almost all demographic statistics. This week’s report on Russia’s socio-economic situation for May did not include the usual information on natural population growth, the number of births and deaths, marriages and divorces, migration and even population size, according to The Moscow Times.
“The ‘Demography’ section is simply missing” from the report, MMI analysts are outraged: “It’s one thing to close data that could be a reason to impose sanctions. But it is quite another thing when they close the data that concerns only us, Russians.”
The detailed statistics Rosstat has already closed. The report “On the natural movement of population” for the first quarter and March, published in May, contained only general figures, without a breakdown by region. Since then, the section has not been updated, the data for April is not there - not even such data.
Now, as MMI analysts put it, “an even more terrible thing has happened”: even the most general figures have become unavailable. “We have been completely deprived of information about the number of people in the country, how many are born, how many die,” they state, calling on the government to “either explain why this data is closed or resume its publication.”
The latest available data are as follows: as of April 1, the population numbered 146.1 million, down 61,100 since the beginning of the year. In three months 288.8 thousand people were born, 471.8 thousand died, natural population decline amounted to 183.3 thousand people, which was 2/3 compensated by migration growth: 121.9 thousand people.
The war sharply worsened the already difficult demographic situation in Russia. Rosstat predicted that by 2046, Russia’s population would shrink to 138.8 million people: natural decline would exceed 12 million, but would be partially offset by migration growth. Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin has set unattainable goals: to stop natural population decline (first by 2024, then the deadline was moved to 2030), to sharply increase fertility and life expectancy.
Data on the latter have also virtually ceased to be published: for 2024, Rosstat reported only that life expectancy (LE) amounted to 72.84 years. Data on regions, the dynamics of LLL for a rolling year, etc. are no longer disclosed, as well as information on mortality - age structure, causes. Fertility this year every month birth rate broke anti-records since the turn of the XVII-XIX centuries, noted demographer Alexei Raksha.

"Male life expectancy – long plagued by alcoholism – is particularly low in Russia, at just 68.04 according to official data from 2023, 12 years less than for women.
But Raksha said the Kremlin’s Ukraine campaign has cut that even further, estimating it now hovers “just above 66.”"
"Far from the front, widespread alcoholism – a leading killer of men – has for years been plunging Russian demographics into the abyss.
Yelena Matveyeva, a 58-year-old cleaner, knows this all too well.
Six months ago, her husband of 35 years, Yuri, was found dead in his car, where he was drinking alone. He was due to turn 60.
“I now realise that all this time, living with an alcoholic, I was simply living somebody else’s life,” she told AFP.
The widow decried alcoholism as “Russia’s historic national curse”."
