Last week, the Pentagon hit the brakes on some critical arms shipments to Ukraine, citing the need to replenish our own defense systems. That pause didn’t last long. President Trump saw the news, heard the reports of civilian casualties, and said, “Not on my watch.” He ordered those shipments back on track, vowing more defensive…
Minerals, Morality, and Moscow: The U.S.-Ukraine Deal and Trump’s Putin Pivot
The April 30th announcement of a new U.S.-Ukraine mineral agreement has raised eyebrows and opened debate—not just among policymakers, but among those of us who care deeply about biblical justice, national sovereignty, and the proper role of American influence abroad. Add to that President Trump's latest comments about Vladimir Putin, and we've got ourselves a…
Putin’s Hypocrisy, Trump’s Diplomacy, and Ukraine’s Survival
In the complex and often contradictory world of international politics, few scenarios highlight hypocrisy more starkly than Russia's stance on the ongoing conflict with Ukraine. President Vladimir Putin's insistence that peace negotiations cannot proceed while Ukraine controls any part of Russia's Kursk region, juxtaposed with Russia's occupation of Ukrainian territory, epitomizes a glaring double standard.…
Restoring U.S. Military Aid to Ukraine: A Vital Course Correction in the Face of Russian Aggression
On Tuesday, the United States and Ukraine issued a joint statement announcing the resumption of U.S. military aid and intelligence sharing. This decision came after Ukraine signaled its willingness to support Washington’s proposal for a 30-day ceasefire with Russia. While the restoration of aid is a step in the right direction, it is also a…
Russia’s Hypocrisy: The Myth of Protecting Russian-Speaking Ukrainians
I’ve already debunked two of the most common excuses for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine: NATO expansion and “de-Nazification.” Now, let’s tackle another excuse that keeps getting repeated by Moscow and its apologists: 👉 Russia invaded Ukraine to protect Russian-speaking Ukrainians. This claim is Russia’s official justification for its war, but it doesn’t hold up under…
Debunking Russia’s “De-Nazification” Myth
Yesterday, I dismantled the claim that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was justified by NATO expansion. Today, let’s tackle another major propaganda line: the idea that Ukraine needed to be “de-Nazified.” This claim is not just misleading—it’s a deliberate distortion of history designed to justify a war of aggression. The reality? Ukraine is not a Nazi-controlled…
Did NATO Break a Promise? Debunking a Popular Excuse for Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine
Lately, a strange trend has emerged among certain so-called “conservatives” who are bending over backward to justify Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Now, being skeptical of U.S. foreign policy is fair—we’ve certainly had our share of misadventures—but that doesn’t mean we should start parroting Kremlin propaganda like useful idiots. The three main arguments these pseudo-conservatives push…
Trump’s Address: A Defiant Speech, a Dysfunctional Opposition, and the State of the Nation
President Trump’s latest address to Congress was a masterclass in defiance, a blend of policy, bravado, and political theater. It was everything we’ve come to expect from him—bold, brash, and unapologetic. Love him or hate him, the man doesn’t mince words. He doubled down on his key campaign promises, threw out some well-aimed jabs at…
Trump’s Ukraine Gambit: Siding with the Bully, Abandoning the Victim
In a move that has left Ukraine scrambling and Putin smirking, President Trump has ordered a "pause" on all U.S. military aid to Ukraine. This decision, made after a tense meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is yet another signal that Trump is more interested in forcing Ukraine to capitulate than in standing up to…
Why Ukraine Still Matters
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy arrived in Washington last week with high hopes. He was expecting tough conversations, yes, but also the reinforcement of an alliance that has been critical to Ukraine’s survival. The centerpiece of his visit was supposed to be a minerals deal—one that would give the U.S. a tangible economic stake in Ukraine’s…
