    Live updates: Trump meets Putin in Alaska for Ukraine talks - BBC News

    I felt this was a big enough event it deserved its own thread. Trump has landed and Putin is on the way.

    I guess they brought in Rubio because they were worried Trump would trade Donbas for some magic beans and a gold trinket

    I heard a rumor that Sarah Palin can see the meeting from her house.[​IMG]

    My daughter-in-law is based at the airbase where the meeting is taking place. Maybe she can feed me some juicy tidbits.

    Putin came because he heard Trump and company can’t find those Epstein files and he wanted to hand deliver a copy before “the negotiations” to carve up Ukraine.

    Putin is going to want to leave with Alaska in his back pocket.

    No Putin would rather have blue states like California or New York. I say give him what he wants.

    Earlier in the week Trump said that he would be going to Russia to meet Putin.

    Glad you know what he thinks. Alaska used to be part of the USSR, so why wouldn't he want it back? Oil and such you know.

    All that would have to happen for that to be the case would be Russian troops going home.
    And yet here we are placating a man with a criminal arrest warrant potentially with promises of land that’s not his, on behalf of a country that isn’t even at the table, and against the wishes of the American public and our allies.

    The whole thing is a surrealist nightmare.

    Rolling out the red carpet for an occupying, murderous, war criminal. How disgusting.

    “Russian troops going home.”

    Hasn’t happened and Putin won’t likely just pull out of eastern Ukraine. So ….. need to find solution to end the killing. Hopefully there will be one, soon.

    From your lips to Putin's ears considering that Russia is sending drones and missiles to civilian areas in Ukrainian cities every night.
