Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky proclaimed that his meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the funeral for Pope Francis has the “potential to become historic”. Zelensky met with President Trump in St Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican after joining other world leaders in paying their respects to the Pope. A photograph of the meeting showed Trump and Zelensky sitting opposite each other in chairs within the grand sixteenth-century church. The meeting came amid increasing tensions between Washington and Kyiv, which has so far baulked at the peace deal framework laid out by Trump administration negotiators,

There is nithing historic about this greedy, grubbing little twerp who fancies himself a world leader. He isn't. He will never be. He has destroyed his country while enriching and attempting to aggrandize himself. Ukraine would be well rid of him.

Yes, Z. Get ready to be lectured to historically. And just so you know, don't be late to the meeting. President Trump doesn't take kindly to lateness.

Volo. Here's a hint. Shaddup and listen to Trump. And at the end, a Yes, Mr. President, thank you would be sufficient.

Hopefully he realizes the far-left advisors he's been listening to prior to his previous meetings/discussions with President Trump weren't looking out for Ukraine but themselves. Sadly, you lost Crimea due to Obama allowing it to happen, they aren't giving it back and you don't have the ability to take it back. Maybe you gain some of the ground you lost over the last 3 years but the best deal you're going to get is to saddle up with the United States and the minerals deal which ensures we have a vested interest in an independent Ukraine.

Well......It could be historic when he decides that ending the war is better for Ukraine than sending the rest of his youth to the meat grinder and watching his infrastructure burn to the ground. It will be historic when he puts the needs of his citizens over his own self agrandizment. He's about one insult away from Trump cutting Ukraine loose.

He announced this decision a couple of weeks back and has been lining up endorsements and touring the state.James sat down with the Detroit News to answer some questions about what he would like to do as governor, and also what Donald Trump will announce this Tuesday when he is in Michigan. Of course, the question that was asked was something I mentioned could happen in an article a couple of weeks ago, when James first announced he was running.

This week, President Donald Trump said in interview with Time Magazine that one of the ultimate outcomes of the war will be that “Crimea will stay with Russia”, and later that a deal was close, with Ukraine and Russia needing now to meet in person in negotiations for the first time to “finish it off”.

House Republican leaders are considering making some of the key tax benefits that President Donald Trump promised on the 2024 campaign trail only temporary policies in the reconciliation bill that's currently being crafted. A "sunset" period of four years is under consideration for policies such as eliminating taxes on tips, Social Security benefits and overtime pay, Just the News has learned. The move has drawn criticism from a budget watchdog group, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, which has described the possibility of scoring certain tax benefits as temporary rather than permanent to estimate the full cost of the package as "manipulation" that wouldn't show the true cost.

Someone should tell Reid, who apparently flunked history class, that the fall of the Roman Empire had several causes, none of them being a lack of diversity. One cause, however, is believed to be non-citizens, their inability to assimilate into Roman culture, and Rome’s DEI policies that welcomed immigrants to serve in the military.

Whether it’s Gov. Newsom in California or Gov. Evers in Wisconsin, state governors ordering employees to obstruct ICE is a Fort Sumter moment.

As Americans adjust to the effects of President Donald Trump’s tariffs, it’s clear that some are more focused on the big picture instead of the temporary pain.
