I always laugh at the implied hypocrisy of articles like this. If brave foreign heroes are allowed to volunteer in the Ukraine, then the soldiers of other nations are allowed to join Russia. If America shares its intelligence with a regime that's head over heels in love with ethnically cleansing Palestinians, then people are allowed to share…

You don't hit AEW aircraft on a runway without someone providing real time satellite imagery and that someone is the Russians. Trump knows this but does nothing because he's a Russian asset. There is a word for that.

But Vladimir told Trump that they are not helping Iran, and they have a wonderful relationship. And both of them are known to always tell the truth.

…and Ukraine said this ages ago, but GOPniks just shrugged…

US delivers targeting data to Ukraine, Russia gives it to Iran. They both know they do. The cold war is back, then we had these actions in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, name it. The only difference is that we are far from having a Reagan in the white house.

True, but 14 spy satellites observing a single spot within a day or two is unusual activity.

The President of the United States is a traitor and a Russian Asset.

I actually think Trump hates The U.S. military .
