Treason.
Excerpt from the blog of Chinese mercenary "Li Jianwei" in the Russian army on May 25, 2024
The casualty rate is horrible. When we deploy to the front line, everyone dies within 10 hours. Everyone in my squad was wiped out except for me. Soon after, Russian reinforcements arrived, but they were also wiped out immediately. There was no one with combat experience. The superior officer just ordered us to charge without thinking. There were corpses in every basement.
The smell was terrible. The battlefield was completely different from what I had imagined. The Ukrainian army used armor-piercing bullets to shoot through the walls we were hiding in. The enemy was completely merciless and had an incredible attacking spirit. Anyway, the number of drones in the Ukrainian army was just too much. After a few reconnaissance drones arrived, the attack began. All we could do was lie down and pray for it to end quickly. At night, they blew up the whole building, and during the day, drones entered through the windows and exploded. We, the Russian army, launched an offensive three times, but all failed. Even if a tank comes to provide support, it is immediately detected by the drone and destroyed in the blink of an eye. The Polish-made mortars are troublesome. They make almost no sound until they hit the ground. There are Cubans, Indians, Nepalese and black people here, but they all run away immediately. No one helps each other. When I was in the Chinese People's Liberation Army, everyone helped each other, but it's different here. No one can be trusted.
I was blown away by a bomb, but my body armor saved my life. I'm currently recuperating. Just to let you know, "we, the Russian army cannot win this war".
Still no healthcare
No dice!! Time to stop the free money ๐ฐ till after the election!! Write the Ponse Schemer your own check Joe!!
Biden Harris democrats for democracy gop trump for dictatorship
Shame and unrespectful
And we call it the sleepy package
how can you fight with Russia they can send an orca to the moon for 20 bucks!๐
Biden needs that 10% for his basement campaign. Anybody ever figure out where our money is going?
Bidens last few times on tv sounds sick
Im sorry but it's time for the u.s to take care of Americans even as a Democrat im tired of money going to other countries while homeless is up
Inflation is up
The border isn't secure
Ssi ssdi hasn't kept up with the cost of living
BOTH TRUMP AND BIDEN haven't done anything to help low income people i definitely know Trump doesn't care or republican they care more about revenge and petty arguments
How about a package for homeless American people.
I'll never call someone a American president that's in bed with Brittain after the country was birthed off independence away from it,Israel,NATO the British monarch military alliance all British interest. Independence mean no British interest on America,it's sad the people don't see how much treason it really is,America don't need Brittain and never did or never will.
It started from the Infamous "Maidan Insurrection" in Kyiv in 2014, by NATO to overthrow an elected UKR President. Will NATO suffer from Biden's fall climbing up the stairs?
Zelensky's term has ended, he halted elections and banned opposition …. but Joe is still ranting on about "democracy" Complete sham.
Defeating Russia is as unrealistic as Mexico defeating US. Goodluck
Gotta love the republicans in the comment section, seething at anything the old man does. Biden may be senile af but he's, and the US, on the right side of history yet again.
Ukraine demands to be paid in full every month, if not someone will snitch on Nord stream โ๏ธ so you better send it.
Sucks. Keep our money home, we need it to secure our border
The President of the United States apologizes to an illegitimate, expired, democratically elected, drug-addicted clown. Both are guilty of an attempt to expand NATO and the death of a huge number of people, including the civilian population of Donbass.
send more aid to ukraine now or never
NBC News comment section is dominated by Russian trolls. Holy crap, it's like they pay extra for "main stream media" as if we actual American's wouldn't know a foreign agent when we see one struggling to pretend to be American. As American Dad once said, "But seriously guys, how about them launch codes".
Let's double it next month, and the month after, then keep providing a guarentee'd billion a month until Russia runs away back to THEIR territory they agree'd to when they let Ukraine leave and again when Ukraine disarmed it's nukes.
This guy is the worst piece of garbage. If you voted for him, you deserve to be exiled, you are a traitor.
Trump 2024โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ
Anyone who watches this and sees him reading his notes if you vote for that again WOW
Have you ever apologised to the American people? Why do you keep giving money to this clown? American money should be American first!
If you total up all the positive Biden comments itโs obvious who is going to win this election. If we have one that isโฆ
Biden doesnโt think Americans are suffering there for ukrain is poor. Crazy ainโt it. Bc I sure ainโt rich
That dude follows biden around like a little puppy begging for a treat.
FEMA is broke
"There's no such thing as a free lunch." Ukraine will need to pay us back.
