    I called Mike Johnson's office today, even though I'm not a constituent, he is the Speaker of the House and a Trump whisperer... to remind him that Ukraine is the brightest burning beacon of democracy right now and that the real cause of higher diesel prices is Trump's own forever war with Iran, and that it is unacceptable to let Musk harm Ukraine's effort to defend themselves.

        on February 24, 2022, when Russia launched an illegal invasion, martial law was declared, and by their constitution, elections cannot happen, which is how democracy works, we follow the rule of law

        but way to show your hand up front, good first HN comment, I applaud your transparency in these matters

        for clarity, by the quote, I mean it in the way that Ukrainians are fighting for their right to self determination

            Their constitution is what cancels the election, not the president. They are at war against Ruzzia

                    Does the inability to manipulate HN frustrate you?

                    You keep showing your hand, but I am actually curious if trolls and attempted manipulators are open to a meta conversation. Can you step back and have a civilized discussion?

                    I'm curious if you are paid or do this of your own volition. I suspect paid because your heart does not seem in it, like you don't believe it yourself, that you know Russia's invasion has been a disaster for the Russian people and they are worse off. I feel for them as well, I want Russians to have a bright and free future like I want Ukrainians to have a bright and free future. I want this for all humans.
