As my one friend in Kyiv texted me yesterday : “russians suck cock today”.
“Nato now must now join Ukraine.”

Jokes aside, what the Ukrainian military achieved yesterday is simply incredible. Movies will be made about this one day.

“Ukraine’s SBU used advanced FPV drones to strike russian airbases thousands of kilometers deep.

The targets? Strategic bombers that fire cruise missiles at Ukrainian cities. Some were part of russia’s nuclear triad. Gone—without jets, without missiles, without satellites. Damage is estimated at $2 billion already and targets keep burning.

This is next-gen asymmetric warfare in action. Cheap, smart, unstoppable.

If you still think drones are just tactical tools, think again. Ukraine is rewriting military doctrine in real time.”

“This special operation with destruction of over 40 russian strategic bombers (including some capable of carrying nuclear warheads) overshadows the sinking of Moscow battleship. It was accomplished with remotely operated FPV drones launched from the hidden platforms under the roofs of trailer trucks on unsuspecting russian truck drivers.

The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) secretly delivered strike drones into Russia near the ‘Belaya’ airfield and other airfields where A-50, Tu-95, and Tu-22 M3 aircraft were stationed.

In a single moment, on the command of the head of the Security Service of Ukraine, Vasyl Maliuk, the strike drones rose near the airfields and simultaneously hit more than 40 aircraft.

The Russians had no chance to sound the alarm, launch the aircraft into the sky, or protect them from the drones. It all happened in an instant.

This unique special operation has no equal. No one in the world has ever done anything like it.”

“The question is not what happened to Putin.

The question is what the hell has happened to America?”

“What happened to Putin … ?!

It’s not like he’s been a homicidal, psychopath for the last 25 years. It’s not like he killed dissidents with radioactive isotopes, murdered journalists, shot down civilian aircraft, sent political opponents to the gulag to die, stole assets from oligarchs and put them in jail, invaded peaceful neighboring countries, brutalized their civilian populations, tortured and executed prisoners of war. No one knows know what the hell happened to Putin. One of life’s great mysteries.

Trump has only ever talked about taking action against Putin. He’s slapping the EU with 50% tariffs but nothing on Russia.”

I have never wished harm or death on anyone. Even people that have wronged me. But in the case of Putin and Trump, in my view, the one individual is pure evil and the other is a conman and a sociopath.

Putin started the war in Ukraine, and the fact that there are even debates in the world about who the bad guys are here is just mind boggling. And I blame this madness squarely on Trump. This moron avoids ever saying a bad word about Putin. And yes, we can laugh at Trump, and call him names, but he has the power.

‘Putin is laughing at Trump’ — Ukraine in disbelief as Russia makes a mockery of US-led ceasefire attempts

This is the title of an article yesterday from the Kyiv Independent. It says it all.

Trump puts pressure on Ukraine but when it comes to Russia, it is all just blah blah blah. Russia are the aggressors, and yet, they don’t even get called out by Trump. But Ukraine, who is the victim here, is constantly bullied and scolded.

Another week begins, and with it comes new hope.

Last week Ukraine and its European allies were together in Kyiv and they are demanding that Russia agree to an unconditional 30-day ceasefire starting on May 12, which is, well, today. “We agreed that a full and unconditional ceasefire must begin on Monday, May 12, for at least 30 days. We jointly demand this from Russia, and we know we are supported in this by the United States,” Zelensky said. Further to this, Zelensky and the European leaders held a “productive” call with Trump, Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha has stated.

But of course, Putin rejects the ceasefire and he calls on Ukraine to begin direct talks in Istanbul next week. “Russia is ready for negotiations without any preconditions,” Putin said. So much game playing. So much evil. Just end the war. It can end as quickly as it started.

If America puts Russia under pressure something will happen. But under Trump’s America trust and confidence is low. We live in hope. America remains the key here.

Does Putin really have a hold over Trump? Is Trump really the soulless grifter many people believe him to be. We will soon find out. Either Russia is put in their place, or the world’s values will continue to decline. As my one friend in the US said to me the other day, “There is just shareholder value. I think those are the only values left.”

From what I read in the world news this is meant to be a big week for Ukraine. The Trump team is suggesting that a ceasefire or peace could come this week. But in Ukraine no one believes this. Yes, we all live with hope, but right now it is hard to trust anything coming out of America from the current team of leaders there.

The only way to truly end this war is to cut Russia off. Put Russia under pressure. But no, Trump did the opposite. He put pressure on Ukraine and gave Russia a pat on the back.

In my view, albeit subjective, I don’t see Trump’s peace plans as sincere or genuine. It is like he is faking it, and by doing so the media has been diverted away from the real horrors of the Russian war in Ukraine and are now focused on this phony peace plan. This only allows for further Russian aggression to go unchecked.

I don’t believe Ukraine will fall. They will never give up. But sadly there is a lot more bloodshed and pain to come.

I cannot imagine a world where evil is allowed to triumph over good. But it sure looks like that this is the case.

I was recently at “home” in Kyiv. I am still trying to gather my thoughts. Kyiv is a magical city. Soulful, Beautiful. But everyone in Ukraine is exhausted, and the Russian war is not letting up.

I was recently texting with an American friend of mine who lives in Poland. Both of us roll our eyes when we hear people say “But Putin wants to negotiate”. Putin is not interested in negotiating. And then there is that genius Trump.

This is what my friend shared with me. He is spot on.

You need to understand Putin’s intention: Revenge!

He wants to collapse the West to one degree or another (maybe NATO, maybe the EU) take back territories (not all, but certainly wants to have a veto) which he believes will make him Vladimir the Great, whose name will live for centuries. That is his singular goal. To be a great Russian Hero. Not money, not power. But history.

In my view, Trump sadly seems to want the same. At this stage, I am not yet sure, but as for Putin there is no doubt at all.

My friend went on to say: And see how fast all the big business fall in line with the King. Big tech taking the lead.

It’s every person for themselves. Nuclear proliferation will run. The PM of Poland is talking about the need for nukes.

Darker times are coming.

I am at “home” in Kyiv and with all the pain and trauma of the war, people here still laugh and live life. But of course nothing is normal.

I assume this Danish joke has Ukrainian fingerprints all over it, or at least, the inspiration comes from here. But what I don’t get is why does America need Greenland? Both Russia and America do not need Greenland to launch nuclear weapons at each other. And China is not going to try and annex Greenland, so what then is America on about?! The thing though that makes the least sense is this: Trump acts like Putin is his friend. Someone he can trust. So why then does America need Greenland in order to better protect itself from Russia? Something does not compute here.
