Trump announced today that he would be working side by side with Russian President Vladimir Putin to bring an end to the war in Ukraine. That kinda sounds bad - why are we negotiating with the aggressor rather than our ally Ukraine?
Russian state TV propagandists think it's a weird move too. In fact, they celebrated Donald Trump's announcement saying that Trump had effectively "taken a saw to NATO and the western world by siding with Russia."
Putin propagandists Evgeny Popov and Sergey Luzyanin discussed Pete Hegseth's appearance at the Ramstein Summit in Germany and joked about the apparent "three no's" of Pete Hegseth's policies for the Defense Department: no American weapons to Ukraine, no meeting with the Ukrainian delegation at Ramstein, and no to American escalation of the war.
"Trump is sawing through the western world," Luzyanin said. "One piece is Canadian, another one is European. We'll see how successful he'll be with his saw."
"Basically he is taking our bread and butter," Popov responded. "We wanted to saw the western world into pieces, but he decided to saw through it himself."
The damning video shows Putin's propagandist celebrating Trump doing what Russia couldn't do for a century; destroy NATO and divide the west. Trump is the greatest asset Putin and Russia have ever had, and Russian State TV is the only media showing the deadly partnership.
The Russian TV segment came the same day that Tulsi Gabbard was confirmed as Trump's Director of National Intelligence aka the position that is responsible for controlling what intelligence the president sees.
Gabbard has a troubling history of supporting Russian-backed dictators and was recently referred to as "our girl" by Russian State TV host Vladimir Solovyov.
Between Musk and Putin, Trump's neck has got to be sore from getting yanked around on his golden leash.
