The wanna-be-dic(K)traitor in the WH doing all he can to help is buddy in the Kremlin!

This here "Several U.S. national security agencies have halted work on a coordinated effort to counter Russian sabotage, disinformation and cyberattacks" is just enabling Putain to continue with his genocide attempts in Ukraine!

The US (here Donald Trump) has blood on their hands!

Several U.S. national security agencies have halted work on a coordinated effort to counter Russian sabotage, disinformation and cyberattacks, easing pressure on Moscow as the Trump Administration pushes Russia to end its war in Ukraine.

Deliberate move by Trump to undermine national security.

Trump is a national shame.

Yes, totally Making America Great Again. I would ask what MAGAs what they have to say for themselves but we all know they have no shame.

What’s wrong with letting Russia undermine American security?

/s

Why are on earth would they suspend some efforts to counter Russian sabotage?!

Does the U.S. trust Russia more than its own security?! Oh, that’s right! Russia has a valuable asset in the White House now.

Trump and his oligarch/tech bro friends want to join forces with the big man himself. It’s pretty damn obvious by now.

Zelenskyy will never win this, and his options are even less now than what they were a week ago.

-16 ( +5 / -21 )

Zelenskyy will never win this,

Ergo, time to let Russia undermine US national security.

Or are you trying to deflect from the main topic of this article?

Blame Russia. So simple isn't it. 

I’d like to know what you admire about Putin and his regime.

Can the Trump otakus please justify this? How does this make America great, exactly?

JJE

Blame Russia. So simple isn't it. Solves all the issues at once.

Well, mainly because Russia is engaging in terrorism against the Western world. So there's that.

according to 11 current and former officials, all of whom requested anonymity to discuss classified matters.

You mean what they say is not believable?

Or you want to redirect the discussion toward a squirrel somewhere?

I’d like to know your opinion about the closer dance with Putin, if true. Is it good?

More de-escalation techniques by DJT, who knows you have to 'set the table' for a Peace deal in Ukraine.

DJT knows that improving global stability and economic growth not possible while the world remains divided in Ukraine, threatening currencies and the world order etc.

No need to surrender US national security to appease a murderous dictator who doesn't want peace anyway.

DJT knows that improving global stability and economic growth not possible while the world remains divided in Ukraine, threatening currencies and the world order etc.

DJT doesn't give two hoots. He just wants a peace prize. But now he realizes it's too hard for him.

I was told to get back with people here when there were actual arrests.

ok!’

ABC News reported:

An FBI agent who accused the bureau of political bias during President Donald Trump’s first administration was arrested Monday in New York on charges related to the alleged unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, according to court documents filed Tuesday.

Buma, a 15-year veteran of the FBI who speaks Russian,

hmmm Russian.

Won’t happen

Or are you trying to deflect from the main topic of this article?

No. Not at all. I just want this war to end, I don’t care about Putin or Zelenskyy even more so, but I think the killing has gone on long enough. Whatever it takes and if that means Zelenskyy needs to give up significant parts of his country in order to stop this guy, so be it.

Krasnov doing really good work for Putin, really good.

Americans can look forward to even more state sponsored Russian ransomware attacks.

Putin needs his pocket money.

It will if someone lets them.

And Trump is that someone.

So you’re fine with softening America’s security measures against Russia, a stated enemy of America.

How very America First of you.

A stated enemy of idiocy. Not America.

Hmm an agent.

But maybe those 11 current and former officials are above the law.
