I don't think that there is any other legitimate way to earn money nowadays rather than investing

[novaclymax]

Why is the US claiming this? This is bad, really really bad

[mattgrady]

This is how you ask for ww3 without directly asking for ww3

[jessicaanderson]

The old saying, “Loose lips sink ships!” goes both ways!

[josephcastelo]

what is wrong with our media? seriously. stick to muffin recipes instead of trying to start WWIII

[javirobles]

Let’s announce it so we can let the world know even though Russia has said any help will have consequences. Then play the hearts and mind mentioning this supposed 8 year old that might be as real as the ghost of Kyiv…..

[yossarian]

And now we have given the Russians reason to target American assets. Good job intelligence agencies! Good job!

[uio]

Taking us straight to WW3. Let's go Brandon!!

[dsta]

This is tantamount to Russia providing Iran intel on our navy ships and destroying one. This kind of attack demands retaliation from Russia let’s just hope it’s not nuclear

[lawabidingcitizen]

If you like the way things are going then thank a Democrat this is what they voted for

[josueborja]

It’s almost like we are daring Russia to use a nuke!

[GotoHere]

This is how the warmongering democrats started the Korean War and Vietnam war.

[tylerburton]

I don't know if it's because I'm watching news in America but it seems like the USA is providing the most help and support to Ukraine. While projecting the idea that we are not really that involved. I hope Russia doesn't see it that way.

[marlenaleeders]

Zelenski shouldn't be holding ukranians hostage

[MikeJones__Who]

I'm 100% for free press but this was irresponsible and dumb journalism.
Clearly Russia is looking for any excuse to strike out and split up the delicate alliance we have with NATO.
Coming out and saying US intelligence is helping Ukraine conduct offensive operations is about the dumbest thing anyone can do without understanding the consequences that follow.

[StillLivinginthewoods]

I sure do miss the days when liberals were anti-war.
I miss the days when democrats were actually liberals.

Anyone who believes any "News" posted on YouTube or on TV deserves to believe it.

[Jeff-pwec]

Are you trying to start ww3?
Oh wait... you literally are.

[Internut]

This is horrible! Russia 🇷🇺 can now openly help US enemies conduct attacks on its assets
