Steve Witkoff on russian information sharing with Iran: “The Russians said they are not sharing information. That is what they said. So, you know, we can take them at their word.”
Yes, let’s take russians at their word, because they are so trustworthy.
Just like we trusted Putin when he repeatedly and publicly claimed he had no intention of invading Ukraine — only to launch a full-scale invasion days later.
Just like we trusted russia when it signed the Budapest Memorandum, committing to respect Ukraine’s sovereignty — and then denied Ukraine’s sovereignty.
There is only one thing we can trust russians about: they always lie.

Up is down.
Lies are truth.
Truth are lies.
Dark is light.
Black is white.
Russians are honest.
Even Orwell would be flabbergasted at the gaslighting by this regime.

Instead of a thousand words, school students kneel before a funeral procession for a fallen Ukrainian hero.
Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the Heroes!

How the war in Iran is helping Putin
While the world is watching the Middle East, the Kremlin is quietly benefiting.
Here’s why:
- Distraction from Ukraine.
The war dominates headlines, political debates, and diplomatic attention. The less the world talks about Ukraine, the easier it is for russia to continue its aggression.
- Rising oil prices.
War in the Middle East pushes oil prices up. For russia, whose war machine runs on oil revenue, this means billions more flowing into the Kremlin’s budget.
- Sanctions pressure is weakening.
Because of global oil shortages, the U.S. has already allowed additional russian oil sales to India and is now considering lifting more sanctions on russian oil exports.
- Western weapons are being stretched thin.
Air-defense systems and missiles — including Patriot interceptors — are limited. If they are needed in multiple conflicts, fewer are available to defend Ukrainian cities.
And there is another dangerous consequence.
Every new violation of international law weakens the global order — the same order russia violated when it invaded Ukraine and now tries to justify.
In geopolitics, consequences are rarely isolated.
Right now, one of the biggest beneficiaries of the war in Iran sits in the Kremlin.

Senator Mark Kelly after visiting Ukraine last year:
“Just left Ukraine. What I saw proved to me we can’t give up on the Ukrainian people. Everyone wants this war to end, but any agreement has to protect Ukraine’s security and can’t be a giveaway to Putin. Let me tell you about my trip and why it’s important we stand with Ukraine.
This war started with what Putin thought would be a three-day operation to take Kyiv and control of all of Ukraine. Now years later, that hasn’t happened. American and allied support has been a big reason why, but I saw how cutting it off now risks everything so many Ukrainians have laid down their lives for. And while our support hasn’t been free, we haven’t sent even half of what President Trump says.
Hospitals should never be targets in war, but Putin is a war criminal who targets hospitals routinely. I visited one in Kyiv. Injured soldiers told me how they want to get back to the fight. Nurses there shared their stories of the invasion with me through tears. Stories of violence that women and children of Ukraine suffered during the invasion. These nurses told me how they witnessed Russian soldiers raping children in front of their parents and then murdering these children in front of their parents. Horrendous war crimes which can never be forgiven. Donald Trump says he trusts Putin and is trying to make him look like a friend and a good guy. I look forward to seeing Putin rot in prison.
The pause of military aid has only made it harder for Ukraine in their fight against Russia. They are running low on certain weapons which have made it most of the way to Ukraine. Stopping the transfer of these weapons only helps the Russians. The Russians will become more confident and try to drive a harder bargain in ceasefire talks. This isn’t rocket science. We should be negotiating from a position of strength.
Donald Trump is trying to weaken Ukraine’s hand and we are owed an explanation. If Putin gains ground he won’t agree to a ceasefire and will eventually threaten a NATO ally and this puts American troops and the American people at risk.
I met with Ukrainian pilots, one who I had met in Arizona when he was learning to fly the F-16. They are flying challenging combat missions against the Russians who are protected by a considerable electronic warfare and surface to air missile system defense. They’ve learned a lot and they are getting better and having more success. When Trump cut off these pilots from US intelligence that they need to plan their missions, he blinded them to the threat and put them and their aircraft at risk. But worse than that, it helps the Russians advance further into Ukrainian territory and murder more Ukrainians. President Trump says the Russians are “hitting them hard” in a tone of voice that implies approval. It is sickening to see from an American President. “Hitting them hard” means more dead Ukrainian kids.
Ukraine did not start this war, and they did not ask for the constant missile and drone attacks that have terrorized the population. Government officials who can’t acknowledge factual information should reevaluate their career choices.
I saw the innovation and fighting spirit of the Ukrainians up close. It was embodied in their military members, everyday people and by these students who are aviation engineers using their spare time to help Ukrainians innovate in their military. They now have a defense industrial base that we should envy and that we can learn from. They have an innovation cycle measured in days while ours is years. We should be learning from it, not slowing it down.
Lastly I visited the Wall of Remembrance to pay tribute to Ukraine’s dead soldiers. I’m bringing back what I saw and learned from Ukrainian leaders, servicemembers and the Ukrainian people to show the direct impact our support is having on the ground. The safety and security of Ukraine is tied to the safety and security of the United States. Let me explain why.
If we abandon our ally Ukraine, we will be viewed by other countries including our other allies as untrustworthy and in the future we shouldn’t expect their help. As significant as that is, what is a bigger deal is the reaction we would see from China. The Chinese watch everything and they want to take Taiwan. If they view our partnerships and our loyalty to our allies as weak they are more likely to try to take Taiwan by force. If that happens, this President or any future President will have to make one of the most consequential decisions in the history of our country. My goal is to avoid that decision. We avoid that by strengthening our alliances, not weakening them.
Finally, if we stand with Ukraine they will be there for us. This country has a fighting spirit and a depth of experience and kickassness unmatched anywhere in the world today. These are the people you want in your corner. My goal in the Senate is and will continue to be to keep us out of wars. I think that is true for most combat veterans like me. We want to stay out of the fight. But when things go sideways and we find ourselves on the battlefield in a foreign land or God forbid, at home, the first call I’d want to make is to our Ukrainian friends. I know they would be there for us if we are there for them.
The world will become a very cold and lonely place if we continue this ridiculous “screw you, go it alone” foreign policy. It’s dumb and it won’t age well and puts you and your kids and your grandkids at risk. America is the strongest, richest country in the world. We didn’t get there by being bullies like Putin, we got there by leading from the front and bringing our allies. That’s why I’ll continue to share with everyone who will listen why we must keep supporting Ukraine.”

Great words of support. You cannot say it better. Where is he now in 2026 and what is he doing for Ukraine as a senator? Where are other senators? The Congress?
Kevin Yelenik
This American voter living in Norway thinks he should be the next Democratic candidate for president and I really hope he wins nomination and eventually the presidency!

Respect and honor for the Ukrainian Heroes and International Volunteer Heroes that answered the call to help Ukraine 🇺🇦.
And let’s not forget our fallen heroes, Slava Ukraini!
Heroyam Slava! God bless🙏💔❤️🩹🇺🇸🇺🇦

Based on the words of Senator Mark Kelly, he obviously should and must be the next Democratic nominee.
Although he does not go far enough IMHO. I’d have preferred it if he had said that all Ukrainian territory must be restored; by the use of US force if necessary.
As for the GOP, the whole magaputler shithead wing must be demolished and they should nominate someone like Roger Wicker or John Kennedy (Louisiana).
Note : Mr Kennedy has already apologized for the school bombing in Iran, which rather suggests that this ghastly mistake did in fact happen.
The Russians said they are not sharing information. That is what they said. So, you know, we can take them at their word.”
That is why we call Witkoff Witless. He is a complete fool, wholly incompetent, and babbles bullshit just like the orange crook that hired him, just like the rest of this wholly incompetent and idiotic administration, which is the worst in U.S. history.
This toilet-bowl of an administration is never short of mind-boggling negative surprises.
