The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The Financial Times is reporting that the Trump administration is bullying Ukraine to withdraw from the Donbas territory it now controls if it wants US security guarantees; that those guarantees are contingent on Kyiv first agreeing a peace deal that would involve ceding the Donbas region to Russia.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukraine’s president, had hoped to sign documents on security guarantees and a postwar “prosperity plan” with the US as early as this month, giving Kyiv leverage in future talks with Moscow.

But Washington is now signalling the US security commitments depend on reaching an accommodation with Russia. Ukrainian and European officials described the US stance as an attempt to strong-arm Kyiv into making painful territorial concessions Moscow has demanded in any deal.


Yep, like she said, with the Pedophile Protector, all roads lead to Russia.

All you "Russia! Russia! Russia!" assholes can slither way and go f*ck yourselves right about now.
