President Donald Trump expressed displeasure with Russia’s massive strike on Ukraine, telling reporters on Sunday he was “not happy” with the attack.
At Morristown Municipal Airport in New Jersey, Trump accused Putin of “killing a lot of people” in the Sunday afternoon assault.
“I’m not happy with what Putin is doing,” Trump stated. “He’s killing a lot of people, and I don’t know what the hell happened to Putin.
“I’ve known him a long time, always gotten along with him, but he’s sending rockets into cities and killing people, and I don’t like it at all.”
Trump noted Putin was “shooting rockets into Kyiv and other cities” during negotiations.
“I don’t like what Putin is doing. Not even a little bit,” Trump stressed. “He’s killing people. And something happened to this guy.”
The remarks followed Russia’s overnight barrage of Ukrainian cities with hundreds of drones and missiles, deemed the war’s largest aerial attack. Kyiv was a primary target.
Ukrainian authorities reported at least 12 deaths and dozens injured.
While previous attacks have been deadlier, this assault involved 298 drones and 69 missiles, the highest number of weapons used in a single strike.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in a Telegram post, urged a global response.
“The silence of America, the silence of others in the world only encourages Putin,” he wrote. “Every such terrorist Russian strike is reason enough for new sanctions against Russia.”
Later Sunday, Trump elaborated on Truth Social, writing that Putin “has gone absolutely CRAZY!” while also criticizing Zelenskyy.
“I’ve always said that [Putin] wants ALL of Ukraine, not just a piece of it, and maybe that’s proving to be right, but if he does, it will lead to the downfall of Russia!” the post stated. “Likewise, President Zelenskyy is doing his Country no favors by talking the way he does. Everything out of his mouth causes problems, I don’t like it, and it better stop.”
“This is a War that would never have started if I were President. This is Zelenskyy’s, Putin’s, and Biden’s War, not ‘Trump’s,’ I am only helping to put out the big and ugly fires, that have been started through Gross Incompetence and Hatred,” Trump concluded.
At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
