If there is one thing we can thank US President Donald Trump for, it is this: he has decisively stripped away the ridiculous notion, long cultivated by western media, that the United States is a benign global policeman enforcing a “rules-based order”.
Washington is better understood as the head of a gangster empire, embracing 800 military bases around the world. Since the end of the Cold War, it has been aggressively seeking “global full-spectrum domination”, as the Pentagon doctrine politely terms it.
You either pay fealty to the Don or you get dumped in the river. Last Friday Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was presented with a pair of designer concrete boots at the White House.
The innovation was that it all happened in front of the western press corps, in the Oval Office, rather than in a back room, out of sight. It made for great television, Trump crowed.
Pundits have been quick to reassure us that the shouting match was some kind of weird Trumpian thing. As though being inhospitable to state leaders, and disrespectful to the countries they head, is unique to this administration.
Take just the example of Iraq. The administration of Bill Clinton thought it “worth it” – as his secretary of state, Madeleine Albright, infamously put it – to kill an estimated half a million Iraqi children by imposing draconian sanctions through the 1990s.
Under Clinton’s successor, George W Bush, the US then waged an illegal war in 2003, on entirely phoney grounds, that killed around half a million Iraqis, according to post-war estimates, and made four million homeless.
Those worrying about the White House publicly humiliating Zelensky might be better advised to save their concern for the hundreds of thousands of mostly Ukrainian and Russian men killed or wounded fighting an entirely unnecessary war – one, as we shall see, Washington carefully engineered through Nato over the preceding two decades.
Henchman Zelensky
All those casualties served the same goal as they did in Iraq: to remind the world who is boss.
Uniquely, western publics don’t understand this simple point because they live inside a disinformation bubble, created for them by the western establishment media.
Henry Kissinger, the long-time steward of US foreign policy, famously said: “It may be dangerous to be America’s enemy, but to be America’s friend is fatal.”
Zelensky just found that out the hard way. Gangster empires are just as fickle as the gangsters we know from Hollywood movies. Under the previous Joe Biden administration, Zelensky had been recruited as a henchman to do Washington’s bidding on Moscow’s doorstep.
The background – the one western media have kept largely out of view – is that, following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the US tore up treaties crucial to reassuring Russia of Nato’s good intent.
Viewed from Moscow, and given Washington’s track record, Nato’s European security umbrella must have looked more like preparation for an ambush.
Keen though Trump now is to rewrite history and cast himself as peacemaker, he was central to the escalating tensions that led to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
In 2019, he unilaterally withdrew from the 1987 Treaty on Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces. That opened the door to the US launching a potential first strike on Russia, using missiles stationed in nearby Nato members Romania and Poland.
He also sent Javelin anti-tank weapons to Ukraine, a move avoided by his predecessor, Barack Obama, for fear it would be seen as provocative.
Repeatedly, Nato vowed to bring Ukraine into its fold, despite Russia’s warnings that the step was viewed as an existential threat, that Moscow could not allow Washington to place missiles on its border, any more than the US accepted Soviet missiles stationed in Cuba back in the early 1960s.
Washington pressed ahead anyway, even assisting in a colour revolution-style coup in 2014 against the elected government in Kyiv, whose crime was being a little too sympathetic to Moscow.
With the country in crisis, Zelensky was himself elected by Ukrainians as a peace candidate, there to end a brutal civil war – sparked by that coup – between anti-Russian, “nationalistic” forces in the country’s west and ethnic Russian populations in the east. The Ukrainian president soon broke that promise.
Trump has accused Zelensky of being a “dictator”. But if he is, it is only because Washington wanted him that way, ignoring the wishes of the majority of Ukrainians.
Reddest of red lines
Zelensky’s job was to play a game of chicken with Moscow. The assumption was that the US would win whatever the outcome.
Either Russian President Vladimir Putin’s bluff would be called. Ukraine would be welcomed into Nato, becoming the most forward of the alliance’s forward bases against Russia, allowing nuclear-armed ballistic missiles to be stationed minutes from Moscow.
Or Putin would finally make good on his years of threats to invade his neighbour to stop Nato crossing the reddest of red lines he had set over Ukraine.
Washington could then cry “self-defence” on Ukraine’s behalf, and ludicrously fear-monger western publics about Putin eyeing Poland, Germany, France and Britain next.
Those were the pretexts for arming Kyiv to the hilt, rather than seeking a rapid peace deal. And so began a proxy war of attrition against Russia, using Ukrainian men as cannon fodder.
The aim was to wear Russia down militarily and economically, and bring about Putin’s overthrow.
Zelensky did precisely what was demanded of him. When he appeared to waver early on, and considered signing a peace deal with Moscow, Britain’s prime minister of the time, Boris Johnson, was dispatched with a message from Washington: keep fighting.
That is the same Boris Johnson who now breezily admits that the West is fighting a “proxy war” against Russia.
Hmm, maybe someone can help me.
How was Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine entirely ‘unprovoked’, when the British leader in charge at the time, Boris Johnson, now admits Nato viewed Ukraine as the battlefield for a ‘proxy war’ against Russia? 勞 pic.twitter.com/VS6jRE03gH

His comments have generated precisely no controversy. That is particularly strange, given that critics who pointed this very obvious fact out three years ago were instantly denounced for spreading “Putin disinformation” and Kremlin “talking points”.
For his obedience, Zelensky was feted a hero, the defender of Europe against Russian imperialism. His every “demand” – demands that originated in Washington – was met.
Ukraine has received at least $250bn worth of guns, tanks, fighter jets, training for his troops, western intelligence on Russia, and other forms of aid.
Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian and Russian men have paid with their lives – as have the families they leave behind.
Mafia etiquette
Now the old Don in Washington is gone. The new Don has decided Zelensky has been an expensive failure. Russia isn’t lethally wounded. It’s stronger than ever. Time for a new strategy.
Zelensky, still imagining he was Washington’s favourite henchman, arrived at the Oval Office only to be taught a harsh lesson in mafia etiquette.
Trump is spinning his stab in the back as a “peace agreement”. And in some sense, it is. Rightly, Trump has concluded that Russia has won – unless the West is ready to fight World War III and risk a potential nuclear war.
Trump has faced up to the reality of the situation, even if Zelensky and Europe are still struggling to.
But his plan for Ukraine is actually just a variation of his other peace plan – the one for Gaza. There he wants to ethnically cleanse the Palestinian population and, on the bodies of the enclave’s many thousands of dead children, build the “Riviera of the Middle East” – or “Trump Gaza” as it is being called in a surreal video he shared on social media.
Similarly, Trump now sees Ukraine not as a military battlefield but as an economic one where, through clever deal-making, he can leverage riches for himself and his billionaire pals.
He has put a gun to Zelensky and Europe’s head. Make a deal with Russia to end the war, or you are on your own against a far superior military power. See if the Europeans can help you without a supply of Washington’s weapons.
Not surprisingly, Zelensky, Britain’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron huddled together at the weekend to find a deal that would appease Trump. All Starmer has revealed so far is that the plan will “stop the fighting”.
That is a good thing. But the fighting could have been stopped, and should have been stopped, three years ago.
Money, not peace
It is deeply unwise to be lulled into tribalism by all this – the very tribalism western elites seek to cultivate among their publics to keep us treating international affairs no differently from a high-stakes football match.
No one here has behaved, or is behaving, honourably.
A ceasefire in Ukraine is not about peace. It’s about money, just as the earlier war was. As all wars are, ultimately.
An acceptable ceasefire for Trump, as well as for Putin, will involve a carve-up of Ukraine’s goodies. Rare earth minerals, land, agricultural production will be the real currency driving the agreement.
Zelensky now understands this. He knows that he, and the people of Ukraine, have been scammed. That is what tends to happen when you cosy up to the mafia.
If anyone doubts Washington’s insincerity over Ukraine, look to Palestine for clarity.
In his earlier presidency, Trump tried to bring about what he termed the peace “deal of the century” whose centrepiece was the annexation of much of the Occupied West Bank.
The hope was that the Gulf states would ultimately fund an incentivisation programme – the carrot to Israel’s stick – to encourage Palestinians to make a new life in a giant, purpose-built industrial zone in Sinai, next to Gaza.
That plan is still simmering away in the background. At the weekend, Israel received a green light from Washington to revive its genocidal starvation of Gaza’s population, after Israel refused to negotiate the second phase of the original ceasefire agreement.
The Trump administration and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are now spinning their own bad faith as Hamas “rejectionism”.
They and the echo chamber that is the western media are blaming the Palestinian group for refusing to be gulled into an “extension” of what was never more than a phoney ceasefire – Israel’s fire never ceased. Israel wants all the hostages back, without having to leave Gaza, so that Hamas has no leverage to stop Israel reviving the full genocide.
The people of Gaza are still being fed into the Washington mafia’s meatgrinder, just as the Ukrainian people have been.
Trump wants them out of the way so he can develop a Mediterranean playground for the rich, paid for with Gulf oil money and the so-far untapped natural gas reserves just off Gaza’s coast.
Unlike his predecessors, Trump doesn’t pretend that Ukraine and Gaza are anything more than geostrategic real estate for Washington.
The big shakedown
Zelensky’s shakedown did not come out of the blue. Trump and his officials had been flagging it well in advance.
Two weeks ago, the industrial correspondent for Britain’s Daily Telegraph wrote an article headlined “Here’s why Trump wants to make Ukraine a US economic colony”.
Trump’s team believes that Ukraine may have rare-earth minerals under the ground worth some $15 trillion – a treasure trove that will be critical to the development of the next generation of technology.
In their view, controlling the exploration and extraction of those minerals will be as important as control over the Middle East’s oil reserves was more than a century ago.
And most important of all, the US wants China, its chief economic – if not military – rival excluded from the plunder. China currently has an effective monopoly on many of these critical minerals.
Or as the Telegraph puts it, Ukraine’s “minerals offer a tantalising promise: the ability for the US to break its dependence on Chinese supplies of critical minerals that go into everything from wind turbines to iPhones and stealth fighter jets”.
A draft of the plan seen by the Telegraph would, in its words, “amount to the US economic colonisation of Ukraine, in legal perpetuity”.
Washington wants first refusal on all deposits within the country.
At their Oval Office confrontation, Trump reiterated this goal: “So we’re going to be using that [Ukraine’s rare earth minerals], taking it, using it for all of the things we do, including AI, and including weapons, and the military. And it’s really going to very much satisfy our needs.”
All of this means that Trump has a keen incentive to get the war finished as quickly as possible, and Russia’s territorial advance halted. The more territory Moscow seizes, the less territory is left for the US to plunder.
Self-sabotage
The battle against China over rare-earth minerals isn’t a Trump innovation either – and adds an additional layer of context for why Washington and Nato have been so keen over the past two decades to prise Ukraine away from Russia.
Last summer, a Congressional select committee on competition with China announced the formation of a working group to counter Beijing’s “dominance of critical minerals”.
The chairman of the committee, John Moolenaar, noted that the current US dependence on China for these minerals “would quickly become an existential vulnerability in the event of a conflict”.
Another committee member, Rob Wittman, observed: “Dominance over global supply chains for critical mineral and rare earth elements is the next stage of great power competition.”
What Trump appears to appreciate is that Nato’s proxy war against Russia in Ukraine has, by default, driven Moscow deeper into Beijing’s embrace. It has been self-sabotage on a grand scale.
Together, China and Russia are a formidable opponent, and one at the centre of the ever-growing Brics group – comprised of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. They have been seeking to expand their alliance by adding emerging powers to become a counterweight to Washington and Nato’s bullying global agenda.
But a deal with Putin over Ukraine would provide an opportunity for Washington to build a new security architecture in Europe – one more useful to the US – that places Russia inside the tent rather than outside it.
That would leave China isolated – a long-time Pentagon goal.
And it would also leave Europe less central to the projection of US power, which is why European leaders – led by Keir Starmer – have been looking and sounding so unnerved over the past few weeks.
The danger is that Trump’s “peacemaking” in Ukraine simply becomes a prelude to the fomenting of a war against China, using Taiwan as the pretext in the same way Ukraine was used against Russia.
As Moolenaar implied, US control over critical minerals – in Ukraine and elsewhere – would ensure the US was no longer vulnerable in the event of a war with China to losing access to the minerals it would need to continue the war. It would free Washington’s hand.
Trump may be behaving in a vulgar manner. But the gangster empire he now heads is conducting the same global shakedown as ever.
boris and other jews want us to fight for ukraine but why should we ?
let the jews do their own fighting oh that would be a first
people ask why does carl jones talk such bollox
well its all the dicks hes had down his throat
it affects you that way i am told by other welsh folk
The Trump gang could have blocked Zelensky’s White House visit, but they chose his spectacle to leaver their way out of Nazi NATO.
I’m not sure if NATO is dead, because Canada might want to remain for protection, and you don’t need a name change.
While the US Nazi deep state has more profitable fish to catch, the Europeans still love their Joo puppet, and they want the war to carryon. In the short term, will European NATO states be able to purchase US weapons? Will BAE Systems be able to remain in the US, where UK tax payers (debt) pay their salaries?
Both the UK and UK might need an intel devorce lawyer, because the US won’t share intel, and someone said yesterday, that UK will have to stop sharing intel with the US, and why things are very messy, it that all sides knew what Trump was planning during the closing months of his campaign, and the period between November 5th and entering the White House. So they knew this was all coming. The fake news and Nazi may appear surprised, but it’s all an act.
European Nazis waited for Trump to show his card, and now Europe counters. King Charlie Boy mincing with the cocaine sorter, Trump is very insulted.
Trump is managing the US collapse with limited options. Illegally sacking regime employees might save some money, but it’s very damaging to the economy.
The US could live with trade imbalances, because countries were either forced to buy worthless US paper, or they creamed off their cut from dollar based trading, both of which are declining, so Turmp is forced to lash out with tariffs.
This is a massive mess, because two generations have gone by, and the Nazis failed to manage vastly increasing information. The same thing in bankrupt UK, but much less of problem in better managed EU economies, even with very high energy costs.
I wish kier starmer had a brain
he cant even stop the invasion of migrant scroungers coming here
so how can he stop russian retaliation ?
hesa total twat in the cut of carl jones
“Yes, Trump Is Vulgar” The Title of above Articel.
I have to say to that, he is one of the best Präsidents
in respect doing well for the Humans in USA and
other countries.
And i have to say, it is vulgar to say Präsident Trump
is vulgar. No he is not !
Trump put an upstart thug in his place with choice words. I thought it was a classy put-down. Zelensky is a coke-head fawned over by unelected bureaucrats because he’s corrupt and cruel enough to risk the lives of millions of his own people for the gangsters who misrule the west and who want and now need to steal Russia. I’m wary of what Trump may be capable of but he handled himself and the upstart rather well.
“Funny” how ‘Cook The Spook’ fails to mention that ZOGUK has not only been the Cheerleader In Chief for USA “misdeeds” but – more often than not – an Active Participant in its brigandage… and , when that doesn’t work, hiding behind Uncle Sam’s coat-tails… doing its damnest to instigate war and goad him into fighting… while, as usual, Britain does the blathering
Cook should’ve spared his faux hand-wringing and focused on the Warmongers…a “bit closer to home”… but, then again, we mustn’t “upset the apple-cart” by pointing the finger at the Bwitish Upper Cwust…. right, old chap?
Goddam BS….
It is looking like the global players (mostly jews) are actually running both sides….with the threat of nuclear war acting as the carrot
The danger for the southern hemisphere nations is the cunts will use them as bargaining chips with China.
Mass alien immigration is ALREADY dumbing down the west….with millions of primitive people pouring across borders.
Very likely Trump was told to pull the plug on it because America’s secret police had warned of possible unrest…..whereas Starmer the homosexual commie (crypto jew) still forges ahead with kamikaze immigration policies.
“The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves” – Vladimir Lenin. Brute force against the opposition is troublesome. This quote by Lenin the Butcher implies a certain degree of cynicism. When ruling a society the Jew learned long time ago that better than crush the opposition is to meddle their affairs. The crypto-Jew and the ‘good’-Jew play vital role of infiltration. Despise his rhetoric the ‘good’-Jew always has one foot in the big Jewish family. He might not work for Mossad, but he’d never denounce a ‘fellow’ Jew for proper authorities. He is a kind of fake dissident that never is willing to kill the other side.
The Jew expects opposition to his rule, after all Jew rule is really bad for society as a whole. Generally speaking so called ‘far-right’ movement is legit; however their leadership might be another story. Any opposition to communism, libtardism or ‘progressivism’ upsets the Jew. He doesn’t want ‘far-right’ policies although he may take advantage of it nevertheless.
That said, we can conclude the Jew wants to destroy Trump’s presidency. Trump reminds me Nixon. Trump is a narcissist, he doesn’t want to play the scapegoat role. If Trump doesn’t wise up fast, the Jew will pull the plug on him. Trump needs to learn how to say no to Jews. Nixon trusted Kissinger until it was too late. They might have some Panama on Trump but hey, who cares? Blame it on deepfake AI, and life goes on. All Mossad leverage is worthless in the era of AI.
The Jew wants war on Iran and drag America altogether, Trump must dodge this bullet. In order to appease the Jew he may conduct the issue as a proxy war only. It will be fun to watch Jews playing the role of expendable proxy for a change. Weapons, money, satellite capabilities, Special Forces and that’s it. Fight your own wars Jew! In order to save his presidency and his legacy Trump needs to cut Jews loose.

Okay so the Nazi deal is this, the Nazis here have lost the plot. This is a Nazi swamp and it needs draining. Here in the UK Nazi Starmer is planning for boots on the ground in UKraine. But he can’t lower the price of Haribos, so he’s a Nazi.
The Nazis are done for, and communism will prevail. Trump is not a Nazi agent. Zelensky is, we need to send Putin all of our nukes so he can blow Nazi Europe and Nazi America up once and for all.
Through our mentor Carl we are learning about the truth.
This Carl Jones guy makes a lot of sense. Now we know, thanks to him.
Carl is exposing the Nazis day by day. We need to know Carl our sacred guru, tell us more!
WHAT IS A KITE ?
A lot of folk do not know about synagogues
They are intelligence centres for info gathering
And insider dealing.
For some years i rana successful little business
Jews would come and chat, wanting to find out as much as they could
Next week another jew would come into the shop , if ever i gota bad cheque
it was always from a jew, they call them ” kites”
If you sue a jew he goes to the jewish solicitor, who will move the goal posts
say black is really blue and you never win
One day i had two jews with the big hats came in and said we want to buy your business
i said sure what are you offering ?
The price they offered was ridiculous, they said accept this or we will put you out of business
And you get nothing
I said get out of my shop
so they took a shop almost over the road, they got it announced in the synagogue
and they were all told to buy at his, they contacted suppliers and got goods cheap
i found trade was really falling off, when i looked out front, my old customers were buying there
the last 3 weeks before i closed i had no-one come into the shop
i looked in his window and thought how can he do things this cheap ?
i closed up shop and same week he doubled his prices
Since Clown Zelensky was installed, Ukraine is a catastrophe. Nico is right IMO, this war in Ukraine is meant to rid Ukraine of it’s people for the Jew mafia. Just like in Syria, the white Christians are currently being killed en masse by the US/Israel installed terrorist regime for Greater Israel project. Trump is a bastard for supporting this.
Ukraine since Russia launched Special Military Operation:
1 million dead
2.5 million wounded
15 million or more emigrated to other countries
—————
“Over 271,000 Ukrainian refugees have been admitted to the United States since the Russian invasion began in February 2022”
As of early 2025, over 210,000 Ukrainian refugees have arrived in Canada under the Canada-Ukraine authorization for emergency travel program since the war began in February 2022. Additionally, around 936,293 visas have been issued to Ukrainians seeking to come to Canada.
I can not locate the stats for Ukraine refugees going to Mexico, Central America, or South America

Vatican City has accepted zero Ukrainians. Russia just wiped out Kursk resistance. So now these EU clowns want to draft every male for war in Ukraine. This is utter madness. EU is committing suicide over Ukraine, which used to be part of the Soviet Union.
—————
Solution.
1. Remove the gay demon clown Zelensky.
2. Make a peace deal no NATO membership for Ukraine.
3. No nuclear missiles in Ukraine.
4. Russia keeps the ethnic Russian areas of SE Ukraine.
The US is the biggest criminal organization in the world, and the Trump administration cannot be trusted. That is the problem.
Trump and crypto – “This Is State-Sanctioned Theft!! Everything You NEED To Know About The “BITCOIN STRATEGIC RESERVE”!!”
https://www.bitchute.com/video/DqvlNZwCiGJr
The US is looking for collateral to support its Ponzi dollar as the leading world reserve currency which now greatly debased and is going digital. Tons of gold is being purchased by the US government. In 1933 under FDR the government seized everyone’s gold at a depressed market price, and within a year valued it at a much higher rate using the profits for government programs. They could do the same thing with crypto, first depress the value and then seize it to use it as collateral for their digital dollar.
Trump supporting Israel and Syrian terrorist regime is insane:
West-Backed Jihadists In Syria Massacre Over 1000 Alawite & Christian Men, Women & Children
” … post-Assad Syria unravels under Hayat Tahrir al-Sham’s (HTS) Jolani.
“The death toll from two days of clashes between Syrian security forces and loyalists of ousted President Bashar Assad and revenge killings that followed has risen to more than 1,000, a war monitoring group said Saturday, making it one of the deadliest acts of violence since Syria’s conflict began 14 years ago,”
The west demonized Assad for decades, now the real politik is revealed. The terrorist killings, lead by demon spawn Netanayahu, are continuing. Trump is an evil bastard for supporting Bibi and his gang of murderers.
Zelinskyy deserved to be dressed down
@YUKON JACK
I dont feel sorry for ukrainian dead Bandera+Azov nazis
and all the international dead mercenaries lured by a
corrupt jew mafia to fight against russian Goliat . same
as I dont cry for the stupid german voters + their decision
to promote the CDU/Nazi/SPDliberals + greenleftists
resulting that the Blackrock warmonger Merz will come to
power as the next german chancler . GERMANS YOU WILL
GET WHAT YOU VOTED FOR ! like the ukrainians .
Simple:
The War killed thousands of Russians and Ukrainians aka resistance.(..even though tech could have achieved a less drastic outcome).
USA now cozies up to Russia..and they will split the Ukrainian spoils aka Ukraine can no longer resist
Zelensky ??? Either an idiot or a traitor .
Again Ukraine was played and will lose badly.
They should have taken out Zelensky….one could smell the end results coming.
Trump being effectively unpredictable means that the EU could be about to be devastated .
The Biden regime blew up Nordstream, pushing up energy costs in the EU hugely, the local mafia bosses of the EU (PMs or Presidents) willingly accepted this and linked it to their own Green authoritarian agenda to control and contain freedom of movement, let alone information. Ergo the EU had to import natural gas from America at huge cost, Russia must not be allowed to supply natural gas or oil to the EU (even though it still sells it at huge profit via Turkey, Israel, India et al. to the EU ) NATO then annexed two bordering states to Russia who were previously neutral- Finland and Sweden. These two countries with their female dominated political systems allowed no referendums on membership- too complex to be put to a vote, that’s the strength of democracy.
The Euro has substantially devalued against the Dollar since 2019 more so now the EU continued to pour money , weapons, mercenaries, aid via its military wing, NATO to Ukraine. EU industries are reeling under recession, factory closures and huge price hikes for consumers. Its leadership is besotted by naked Russophobia, lust for war and perpetual state of emergency to browbeat their sullen populace. They believe that with Russia beaten Putin will fall and they can replenish their badly depleted exchequers with Russian goodies. Such is their ignorance & arrogance. Now that America sees no more mileage out of war in Ukraine and wants its minerals, the EU is out of touch with everything. Have they forgotten Victoria Nuland’s “F*** the EU!” after the Maidan coup?
What if? What if Trump, seeing that the EU has now been permanently written off as a potential competitor to the US; is weaker than ever and run by contemptible versions of Zelensky- conceited extortionists despised by their peoples; suddenly decides to quit NATO ? It could be a Trumpian card to play, after all he could then demand that the EU foot the entire NATO bill as America First means it no longer sees the necessity of NATO- an outmoded dinosaur. The Sawdust Caesars of the EU together with their poster boy Zelensky and Keir The Jackal Starmer might just be like the conceited petty tyrants of The Warsaw Pact- who lost their thrones in weeks.
‘Keir The Jackal’ would love nothing more than to get Tommy Atkins’ boots on the ground in Ukie (officially at least rather than the mercenary version) and wings of vultures in the sky provided they have full NATO protection. Then get them killed and once again drag the US into a European War Britain has no hope of sustaining. But will Trump be interested in this old trap? Maybe so, maybe not. But that might well be the reason why Trump might simply walk away from NATO. If so, MI-Shite will be thinking of an assassination , time to whack the made man…..cue The Ides of March, or?
Hallelujah!!Carl Jones has really made me see the light. I will now start to de-nazify Nazi-Amerika. ASAP
Don’t know what he’s paying that new press secretary, but whatever it is IS NOT ENOUGH!
Seriously, he should double her pay, prolly put an armed guard on her, 24/7 – and the rest of the WH should have to bow! I don’t say this lightly, but Caroline Leavitt, undefeated against the blamestream media still, RATES!
