A better analogy is saying to Hitler: βkeep the Sudetenland, donβt worry about the Holocaust, & weβll give you a few years to rearm to attack into Belgium again. Letβs sign that!β

βUkraine does not need more plans. It needs partners who understand the enemy we are fighting and who understand that real peace comes only when aggression is defeated, not rewarded.β

βThere is no agreement that can restrain a man whose aim is the elimination of Ukrainian statehood. And there is no βceasefireβ that will be honoured by a regime that interprets weakness not as an invitation to compromise, but as an invitation to strike.β

βPutinβs aims have never shifted because they are ideological, not tactical. He wants subjugation, not compromise. He wants Kyiv, not coexistenceβ¦These are not negotiable objectives. And yet Europe and the US continue to behave as though they are.β

To all the gentlemen who delivered this turkey to Moscow, I can offer only one piece of advice: Be under no illusions. Neither Fox News nor the White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt will be writing the history of this deal.

The State Department exists to conduct foreign policy, not wage domestic culture-war battles. Using its official account to attack DEI & transgender Americans represents a significant deviation from the Departmentβs core mission and a dangerous politicization of U.S. foreign-policy machinery.
