As US lawmakers return from their Easter break, they need to take Volodymyr Zelensky’s warning Sunday seriously: Without US military aid, Ukraine “will lose the war.”
And if that happens, “other countries will be attacked.”
Yes, it’s that simple.
Ukraine’s military has been short of ammo and struggling to hold back Russia for weeks.
Moscow is reportedly probing for weaknesses and planning new offensives to capture more Ukrainian territory.
If US help fails to arrive, it’s just a matter of time before Zelensky & Co. are annihilated or forced to surrender.
And anyone who thinks that outcome won’t endanger the entire world, including America, is kidding himself.

Fix our border.
Alternatively, pass Ukraine aid NOW and watch them be defeated later.
I think I just read that the Z bought a yooj mansion in London. So he has his bug-out bag packed? (pun not intended)
They liked what they saw.
It’s time to call for a cease-fire and negotiations for peace. But Zelensky can’t make any demands in negotiations now (he could have made some in 2022, but it’s too late now). Zelensky should resign and live one of his mansions we’re read about, and let someone else, someone friendlier with Russia take the lead and maybe get a better deal. Many Ukrainian politicians are Russia friendly and could get a better deal than Zelensky.
But if Ukraine lets Biden’s people participate, expect no favors.
What happens when they kill all the Ukrainian army people? We send troops?
Cool. Now pass the Popcorn, Zelensky!
You are gullible enough to believe this article.
The MIC can’t profit if they just send the old cluster shells and landmines that they have in inventory.
NATO must borrow more so the MIC can continue to profit.
Your terms are acceptable…
Where does this loser Zelensky get off.......threatening the US Congress?
"No, I won't stop nagging. Lookit these shoes. I had to wear them twice.
I told you I needed to go to Paris for new ones. But you never listen."
He also has expensive homes in Israel and Florida.
If he fought as hard as he whines...
Hey Zelensky, surrender now so we don’t have to watch you lose. Maybe you can escape with some of your bribe money (so long as you give Joe another 10%.)
ROTFL!
I’ve been told repeatedly by the war whores that Putin was dying of cancer and Ukraine is totally kicking Russia’s behind.
The government wouldn’t lie to me, right?
Ukraine is toast now - Z is doing a CYA now before he bolts and blames the Congress.
Ukraine’s military has been short of ammo and struggling to hold back Russia for weeks.
Ukraine's military has been short of men and struggling. It's hard to catch those ever resourceful gentlemen.

Blind marriageFake marriages with women with disabilities are booming in Ukraine. NGL.media found out how it works
Over the past two years, NGL.media has repeatedly described various legal and criminal schemes used by Ukrainians to avoid mobilization: enrolling into universities, using Shliakh system, fake divorces and child custody etc. This time, we were interested in a less popular but no less effective option used by men subject to military service: fake marriages with women with disabilities to receive a deferral and cross the border.
The main difficulty in such cases is that fake marriages are not treated as against the law in Ukraine, so this scheme is completely legal. Nevertheless, the police and the Security Service of Ukraine sometimes manage to detain people who make money from organizing such marriages.
We decided to analyze the situation and found participants in this scheme who earn $1,500-5,000 for organizing marriages. Of course, there are no guarantees. We also talked to lawyers and law enforcement officers and even tried to marry off our journalist. And this is what happened.
How does it work?
There are many groups on Facebook and Telegram that offer fake marriage opportunities. Most of them are called just that: “Fake Marriage”, “Fake Marriage Odesa”, “Dating Kyiv”, etc. They regularly post ads looking for women with disabilities or vice versa – looking for men who want to go abroad through marriage.
NGL.media published several ads in such groups from fake accounts – one on behalf of a man (“Ivan”) looking for a woman with a disability to leave Ukraine and two on behalf of women – a sister of a man subject to military service (“Kateryna”) and a girl with a disability (“Liudmyla”) – to take a close look into this scheme.
Within a few days, dozens of women with disabilities responded to Ivan’s ad, ready, they said, to marry him for two or three thousand dollars and cross the border together.
It got more interesting when we started receiving messages from intermediaries – “matchmakers” who are looking for women with disabilities and able-bodied men to marry them and make money from it.
A transgender woman [as she identifies herself] calling herself Margarita Belova turned out to be an administrator of one of these “marriage” chats. She communicates with potential clients from her real Telegram account, emphasizing that this way she guarantees her integrity and the quality of her services.
“How can I disappear if I have a real profile with my photos and my data? Scammers don’t put themselves on display. Scammers write from fake pages, where they put pictures, but not their real photos. But I am the owner of the group [telegram channel]. So, it’s up to you – if you don’t want to believe it, don’t,” Margarita Belova responded to the doubts of “Kateryna,” the sister of a potential conscript who would like to dodge mobilization through a fake marriage.
Margarita Belova offered “Kateryna” two suitable women with disabilities, a 28-year-old and a 33-year-old, for her brother to marry. Belova asked to transfer UAH 11,500 to her card for her services, which only consisted in providing contacts of these women. We were supposed to pay the main amount – 3000 euros – to the chosen woman after the marriage was registered and they crossed the border together. Obviously, the money was never transferred, and we passed all the information about Margarita to law enforcement.
