I think I'd much rather have US politics posts be where they belong. There's a reason I rarely go there, and that's my picking when and how much I'm interested in US politics. If you got thread-banned, tough luck. I don't mind Trump news when they have relevancy to the war, but this doesn't.

The commentary on Trump is very much relevant, even if it may not appear so at first, because Trump has long denied support for Ukraine because of his long ties with Russia.  So, me going on about trump's dementia or whatever may not see relevant.  However the meta message that i'm trying to make is that his time in office won't be very long, and then Vance may be more likely to help Ukraine.                                 

Thanks for understanding, hope you have a good day and are in good cheer.   

I don't mind the dementia news, I think they're relevant enough (of course that's just my opinion). It just feels like you're shoehorning other Trump news here too, which is what I'm not as fond of. And don't get me wrong, I think Trump is awful in so many ways, so I feel like we have some common ground for sure, but there's been some Trump stuff here that doesn't belong.

Getting back to Ukraine and I guess more like the situation surrounding it, Russia violated the airspace of Estonia with three fighter jets for 12 minutes on Friday. I'm guessing Russia wasn't exactly convinced of our response to the drones in Poland, so now they're encouraged to try something new. I hope we're able to set limits appropriately, but so far our response is looking weak (as expected, sadly).
