be aware that their tactic will be volatile.

He should be getting use to it. Seems the theme for August 2025.

anything with Putin and then relay it to Zelenskyy!!

Just like that they’ve taken control away from The Appeaser and his apparatchiks who were doubtless licking their chops for another beat down of Zelenskyy. A big middle finger to Putin as well. Rarely does breaking news put a smile on my face. This does.

Glad to oblige!

Zelensky has friends. Can't say that about Trump.

Thank goodness.

aka Donnie the Bankrupt and Jed the fake hillbilly.

They speak, not for themselves, but for the mediocre KGB operator who got stuck in a Dresden backwater because his Soviet superiors couldn't trust him not to fuck up. A coalition of failures who somehow failed upward. That happens sometimes. But inevitably, they crash back to earth. "Gravity" can only be cheated for so long. The problem is the damage they cause when they crash spectacularly.

And I love how you describe all three of those losers.

They are not only going to ensure the security of Ukraine -- they are going to ensure the safety of Zelenskyy.

May all of them be safe in Washington DC, where they will be treated to the sight of Trump trying to take over our nation’s capitol with uniformed US military plus ICE-pricks plus his own thugs who hide their faces and wear no insignia.

This gathering is utterly extraordinary.

Chump won't be able to treat President Zelenskyy like an errant schoolboy who's about to be paddled. That should never have happened to a distinguished leader like President Zelenskyy, and it's a good sign that the other Europeans recognize it.

I would love to be a bug on the wall in some of the private conversations between these European leaders

as the fashion cop. Then watch him get his ass handed to him. No fucking bullying this time TACO.

the support of other leaders this time.
I didn't see how Monday's meeting could be different than the last one, but maybe now it will be more civilized.
I don't trust the dictators to adhere to any deal they might propose, and Ukraine should not have to give up any land or property.

Now wait for trump to double down on the delusion that he alone forged an agreement with Ukraine.

Music is closer to Lviv than Detroit is to Atlanta.

And of course, Poland shares a major border with Ukraine.

Ukraine is in Europe -- it is part of Europe. Ukraine has values much closer to Europe's than any Asian country.

Message from the most prominent leadership in Europe: Yeah, we'll be there with Zelenskyy---because we know better than to trust your sorry ass, trump.

Absolutely love it.

He will allow this right?

Smart move on the part of the Europeans.

The A Team is coming to town!

Zelensky can rally other nations to his cause. More than you can say for our idiot king.

Our Prime Minister, Mark Carney will join them and put that orange idiot in his place….

Excellent move.

Sounds like all of the adults are coming over to hold an intervention for Diaper Donnie.

All of them know Europe is at stake.

I asked DH: what shiny toy can they give the dangerous toddler?

We all know the answer, don’t we? The question is how can these smart leaders maneuver toddler poopy-pants into giving them the necessary peace agreement that strips his bestie of the land he’s taken from Ukraine and sends Vlad the hell away.

Flatter, flatter, maneuver, maneuver. Expect flattery that will make us gag to hear it. If it works, it will be worth it. Dangle the shiny toy before his eyes. Gods willing, tie him up in greedy emotional knots. Get everything needed. No ice cream until you eat all your spinach.

And get it done before JD gets rid of him, because JD is a cold fish owned by a cold technocrat.

Y’know, even though I’m rephrasing a helluva lot — hubby’s idea sounded an awful lot like our former Sec. of State Hillary Clinton.

The Felon doesn't understand, they are joining Zelensky because the Felon doesn't know how to behave. F.ck the Felon and his little bobbleheads.
They're coming into his arena to tell him to shove his deal up his fat arse.

Hopefully They will give the toddler a much needed time out.

But no more.

The adults are riled up, and intend to speak up.
No one in Europe wants Russia to march west.

How will Donnie react? (Sulk)
How will Putin react when he finds out his Useful Idiot 'friend' Donnie is rendered impotent?
That is the question we should ask.
