Trump surprised Russia is pounding Ukraine since aid and intelligence cut [1]

Ukraine is being attacked more heavily since Ukraine aid was "paused," but even much more since intelligence has been "paused."
Without the intel, Ukraine doesn't have the targeting information they needed for cannon fire, missiles, planes and drones. To be sure, they are not without their own, but they don't have satellites. Hopefully the EU and NATO nations can fill the gap to some extent.
I watched the Oval Office news conference this morning and Trump didn't think the pause of aid and intelligence had any effect on Putin increasing attacks as a result. He's just as stupid as he's always been.
He is threatening Russia with large scale banking sanctions, other sanctions and tariffs. The tariffs on Russia are an empty threat. We don't buy anything from them. The banking sanctions were put in place by Biden a long time ago. We already have sanctions on Russia's shadow fleet of oil tankers. I can't think of anything we haven't done. So, the whole statement in his post is empty.
Trump still said he thinks Ukraine doesn't want the war to end, which is asinine. Zelensky just can't agree to what Trump and Hegseth and Rubio have already tried to force on Ukraine even before they get to the bargaining table.
"...get to the table, before it is too late."
Trump makes it sound like dinner.
"Thank you!!!"
He isn't saying it to Putin and Zelensky, he's saying that to himself, in his typical third person insanity.
Another vapid missive from Trump. He never gets tired of them.
