U.S. pulls out of Soviet-era nuclear missile pact with Russia
The United States formally withdrew from a landmark nuclear missile pact with Russia on Friday after determining that Moscow was in violation of the treaty, something the Kremlin has repeatedly denied.
Washington signalled it would pull out of the arms control treaty six months ago unless Moscow stuck to the accord. Russia called the move a ploy to exit a pact the United States wanted to leave anyway in order to develop new missiles.
The 1987 Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF) was negotiated by then-U.S. President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev.

Our brave courageous president has been very effective. For the good of the nation. (the nation of Russia, that is) (and North Korea)
Trump has also been helpful for our poor corporations.
And a help and inspiration to embolden and empower people who are self-proclaimed Nazis. So self proclaimed that they carry the flag and wear the uniform.
Yes, really. I know this won't be welcome news by all.
