Rebel GOP Senators Fire Warning Shot at Weakened Trump

Republican senators have joined Democrats to issue a pointed message to Donald Trump as he prepares to meet with Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky.

Zelensky, 47, will travel to Mar-a-Lago on Sunday to discuss a possible peace agreement to end Russia’s war in Ukraine with Trump, 79, who previously tried to bully Ukraine into accepting a U.S.-brokered deal favorable to Vladimir Putin.

After Putin, 73, hit Ukraine with hundreds of drones and missiles over Christmas, GOP senators Thom Tillis, Jerry Moran, and John Barrasso, along with Democratic colleagues, offered a reminder that Putin, 73, is a “ruthless murderer.”

“Today’s decision by Putin to launch attacks rather than hold fire is a sobering reminder for us all: Putin is a ruthless murderer who has no interest in peace and cannot be trusted,” reads the Senate Foreign Relations Committee release.

It's not safe for him, they might detain him... I wouldn't put ANYTHING past them. Every filthy, dirty trick is at play these days.

in more ways than one.

Right now Ukraine is making a stand for the whole world. I'm truly ashamed of my country. We are turning our back on everything we have ever stood for.

Slava Ukraini!

He wants to emulate Putin, and he’s doing pretty well so far.
Just impeach the motherf****** already!
