Trump fires the entire US military leadership, replacing experienced 4 star generals with lower rank Trump loyalists.

Putin must be celebrating every day this year.

RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA!

You may believe Trump is a Russian asset, you may not

But the facts remain facts. And they're worse than you think.

Soviet and Russian intelligence identified, groomed, and leveraged Trump as an asset

...starting all the way back in the 1980s.

A thread.

Trump 1/

This just went down:

1. US has spent 114.2 billion on aid to Ukraine — far less than European countries.

2. Trump pulls the imaginary number 500 billion out of the thin air, and demands Ukraine pay this sum back to the US by letting the US take control of mines in Ukraine.

3. Zelenskyy says no. Because unlike Trump, Zelenskyy is not an idiot.

When I do drawings like these (very fine lines really close together) there is always a small part of me that gets a bit sad to add the shading/scratches/texture/depth because it means covering up the precise linework and making it less “perfect”.

Make all these nice lines and then just grunge it up.

But, it definitely looks better in the end.
