Sometimes you don’t need words to express your opinion loud enough:
The minister of war purposely wearing the colors of war while meeting our President who’s striving for peace…
I guess, the sign is too obvious

Gary Kasparov on tovarisch Hegseth’s choice of tie :

“The problem with the Trump administration isn’t their Russian ties, but their ties with Russia.”

Brilliant as ever Gary.

………………

October is the finest artist.
He arrives quietly in the morning,
lays his colors upon the wind,
and takes a brush made of sunlight.

His palette – gold and copper,
a crimson warmth melting on the branches.
He paints the forests in shades of memory,
spreading light across the mountain peaks.

In the Carpathians, this autumn poetry
feels like nature’s living watercolor.
Every slope breathes with color,
every leaf whispers of the beauty
that comes but once a year 🍂 🍁 🍂

    “Tass, the Russian state-owned news agency, said Mr Hegseth “stood out” from his colleagues by wearing a “tie in the colours of the Russian tricolor”.

    “Hegseth’s tie, featuring bold white, blue, and red stripes arranged in the same order as on the Russian national flag, stood out among the otherwise restrained attire of the US delegation,” it wrote.

    “While the United States’ own flag includes the same colours, the sequence and design made the choice particularly striking. Trump and the other officials opted for plain, solid-colored ties.”

    Kirill Dmitriev, Putin’s economic envoy, stoked controversy further by sharing an image of Mr Hegseth’s tie captioned with the Russian flag – widely interpreted as tacit approval.

    Ron Filipkowski, the editor of Meidas Touch, a Left-wing media company, wrote on X: “Looks like the Russians like his Russia tie. It’s not red-white-blue either. It’s red-blue-white. Like the Russian flag. For a meeting with Zelensky.”

    Gary Kasparov, the Russian chess grandmaster and staunch critic of the Kremlin, wrote on X: “The problem with the Trump administration isn’t their Russian ties, but their ties with Russia.”

    Mr Hegseth has previously called for Ukraine to accept losing territory to end the war.

    However, during a meeting with European leaders last week, he warned that the US will “impose costs on Russia” if it does not seek to end the war, in his strongest criticism yet of Moscow.”

  2. The worst president ever, the worst secretary of defense ever, the worst administration ever, and they’re all traitors to boot.
