Russian leaders cheered after President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance dealt Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy a brutal smackdown in the Oval Office Friday, reveling in the public breakdown of relations between the U.S. and Ukraine.

Trump turned on the wartime president during a meeting that he had previously touted as a historic moment in which Zelenskyy would sign a framework to a deal that would let the U.S. share revenue from Ukraine’s rare earth minerals.

Dmitry Medvedev — the former Russian prime minister and president and deputy chair of Russia’s Security Council — was quick to dance on the grave of the U.S.-Ukraine partnership.

“The insolent pig finally got a proper slap down in the Oval Office,” Medvedev wrote on X. “And @realDonaldTrump is right: The Kiev regime is ‘gambling with WWIII.’”

    Insolent pigs is how the US now sees the rest of the world as well. Except Russia and China.

    Every single leader and citizen is an insolent pig to Americans and Russians. We are pawns and commodities in their race to the bottom of humanity and to prevent progress.

    They are cultural bullies told from birth they are special because of their collective strength.

    Greece is striking and protesting in the hundreds of thousands over the rail incident.

    France rioted over retirement age.

    The French Revolution happened in a society of poverty and oppression.

    But every day we hear how it’s not possible, we are all trapped in our jobs.

    No, you don’t care enough because you are a bully culture. And a lot of you see benefit in the results of this upcoming war killing billions while you drill baby drill.

    You are allowing everything taught to you as example from history. From Jesus to Galileo to Hitler. So what is it? Malice or stupidity? Hint: it’s both on a national scale. This is what you did with the freedom you jerked over the world, and the role of protector you took and now ask payment for.

    Your president is a traitor to your country. Your country is a traitor to humanity.

    Nobody intelligent sees anything but WWIII being Americas fault. Allowed by the greedy and stupid to be perpetrated by their gods - old white men and billionaires who all plan to leave us to die.
