The United States of America elected Donald Trump in a landslide victory over a hapless opponent last November, and immediately the mantra “We’re Back” started reverberating across the land.
People were jubilant.
Some held family or neighborhood “victory parties.”
You could hardly blame them after four years of the most absent, most inept president in U.S. history. Biden handed Trump a big mess. Probably on purpose.
Donald Trump, never one to be bashful or to wince before the spotlight, fanned the flames. He immediately started talking about “the dawn of a new Golden Age of America.”
He started off with a bang, publicly signing executive order after executive order. His fans swooned.
But going on three months in, reality is starting to take hold.
What we are seeing is that roughly half of his most meaningful executive orders have been overturned or at least delayed by the courts.
We’ve seen no meaningful action from the Republican-held Congress to codify any of the Trump agenda.
In another six months the campaigning for the 2026 midterms will be in high gear and we will all wonder what of any lasting value we have to show for all the fanfare. Remember, Trump’s executive orders, even the ones that get by the courts, can be overturned on DAY ONE of the next presidency.
The question is this: Will Trump himself get frustrated and seek to distract the nation from his lack of progress on his domestic agenda by taking the nation to war overseas?
This past weekend, Trump started showing signs of frustration.
His long-touted peace deal with Russia’s Putin and Ukraine’s Zelensky is going nowhere. Neither side seems to want to stop fighting, and Trump is learning that you can’t just beat your chest as the “King” of America and browbeat foreign dictators into accepting your “deal.”
When Trump gets frustrated, he takes to social media. And sometimes he even dials up the corporate media to vent his frustrations there. On Sunday, he called NBC News and spoke with Christine Welker. He told her he was “angry” and “pissed off” with Russia’s Vladimir Putin for not agreeing to his peace deal with Ukraine. He also felt the need to repeat his previously mentioned desire for a “third term.”
Then, after saying he would slap Russia with secondary tariffs on all Russian oil if Putin didn’t come to his senses and agree to see the world (including his own border area) through Trump’s America-centric lens, he moved on to talking about Iran.
Trump said he would carpet-bomb Iran and bring hellfire and brimstone, “the likes of which they’ve never seen before,” if they didn’t agree to his deal to give up their nuclear program. Iran gave no indication that it would comply with his demands and on Monday we read that Iran was loading its missiles and priming them for take-off.
Americans did not vote for another Mideast war. That is probably the last thing America can afford right now. And the last thing it needs. Trump said it himself. He said he wanted to be the “Peace President.”
If you recall, the rationale used to avoid a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas was that it would only serve to give Hamas time to rearm and regroup. Israel had Hamas on the ropes and needed to finish them off, we were told.
It’s interesting that this rationale does not apply to the Russia-Ukraine war. Trump’s push for a 30-day ceasefire makes no sense from the Russian perspective. Putin says forget the 30-day temporary truce. He wants to address the core causes of the war and negotiate a truly “lasting peace.”
And yet, here we go. Trump’s foreign policy seems geared along the lines of, make peace with me or I will bomb the hell out of you. Or at the very least, I will wage economic war on you until you succumb to my wishes.
Sorry, Donald, but this isn’t the art of the deal. You can’t browbeat the world into submission.
Perhaps Trump has a secret deal with Putin whereby he criticizes Putin in public while telling him in private he won’t interfere with Russia’s drive to finish off Ukraine. But if that were the case, why is Trump continuing to fund Ukraine’s war effort? He restarted the funding about two weeks after cutting it off, a fact most Americans I talk to are still not aware of.
And even if there is a secret deal, I still don’t think it’s helpful in the long run for a world leader to use subterfuge to the extent that no country can take him at his word. That can only end badly when the deceptions and misdirections finally get exposed. Now you are exposed as a paper tiger who got called on the bluff.
The fact that any U.S. president would make such statements only shows signs of desperation and, in my opinion, weakness. It smacks of the playground bully, who always threatens more than he can deliver. He begs for attention with bombastic statements and basks for a time in the façade of the tough guy image, until someone takes him up on his challenge, calls his bluff and delivers an unexpected crushing blow.
Trump’s new foreign policy tactic is begging for someone, some country, to step up and put down the bully, hit him right at his weakest point. Which is often the most obvious place. Right in the center of his face! Perhaps his exposed jugular? Perhaps a gut punch that incapacitates him just long enough to then deliver the crushing blow? Maybe an EMP attack followed by a strike of an overwhelming hypersonic nature?
Trump wants Western peacekeepers in Ukraine. That is a major snag for Putin, mostly because of Russia’s history and distrust of Western countries like France and Britain (both have fought wars with Russia in the past). Putin’s idea of having the United Nations place peacekeepers in Ukraine is also stupid. How did that work out in Rwanda?
The only way to solve the problem is to back away and let Russia and Ukraine fight it out. That will provide the only organic environment for a lasting peace, and even that may not last forever. But Russia is oh so close to achieving that goal, and that’s why Putin doesn’t want any part of Trump’s “peace” deal. He believes he can end the war by finishing off his opponent and then accomplish all of his goals, rather than 50 or 75 percent of them. Why would the victor in a war settle on the terms of the loser? This is essentially what Trump is asking Putin to do. Sorry, it doesn’t work that way. Ukraine’s leader, Zelensky, wants to keep fighting, so let him carry on and see how that works out for him.
Sadly, it’s becoming clear that the U.S. is losing influence in the world. Its dollar is faltering. Its economy is teetering. And its leaders are behaving like those running a dying empire. The U.S. has to stop acting like the biggest, baddest bully on the block, when everyone knows it has a soft underbelly.
Because remember: When all else fails, they take you to war.
CHEMTRAILS & ASTHMA
One in 20 deaths in North East Lincolnshire due to air pollution
Story by Clara Margotin, Data Reporter •
One in 20 adult deaths in North East Lincolnshire were caused by air pollution in 2023, new figures suggest.
Other studies suggest 3 times this number
An environmental organisation said growing evidence of the risks of Chemtrailing air pollution poses to health shows the Government must do more to protect people from these dangerous pollutants. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs analyses the proportion of deaths among those aged 30 and older caused by air pollution, specifically by fine particle matter (PM2.5).
The figures show 7.5% of deaths among this cohort in North East Lincolnshire in 2023 were attributable to particulate air pollution.
It was slightly up from 5.3% the previous year.
Across England, 5.2% of adult deaths were attributable to metalic particulate air pollution in 2023 – down from 5.8% the year before and the lowest figure since records began in 2018. But there were notable geographical differences, as 8.4% of adult deaths were attributable to pollution in the City of London, compared to just 3.3% in the Isles of Scilly in the South West, for instance.
The Department of Health and Social Care says poor air quality is an important public health issue, as it can develop and worsen potentially fatal conditions – such as coronary heart disease, stroke, respiratory disease, lung cancer, and cause asthma related conditions.
Separate DEFRA figures show the average concentration of fine particulate matter stood at seven micrograms per cubic metre of air in England in 2023 – the smallest level registered since records began in 2018.
in North East Lincolnshire, this figure stood at around 7.3 micrograms per cubic metre of air.
Jenny Bates, air pollution campaigner at Friends of the Earth, warned while air pollution has declined across England, further evidence shows “how dangerous it truly is to our health”.
“It has killed off almost all insect life on which our wild birds feed
She mentioned the World Health Organisation only halved its guideline for the most dangerous fine particulate pollution a few years ago, adding areas that were considered safe from hazardous air pollution levels until then may now be at risk.
She said: “This is exactly why better public awareness, although important, is not enough.
“It’s up to the Government to stop massaging figures and mandate more action from the sectors most responsible, including carbon-intensive transport, woodburning and agriculture.
“People were jubilant.” — which goes to show the jews are correct when they refer to the masses as goyim. Most are indeed cattle just begging to stay in the field munching grass a little longer.
[Trump] “…called NBC News and spoke with Christine Welker. He told her he was “angry” and “pissed off” with Russia’s Vladimir Putin…” — wow there’s diplomacy for you. Like a little school yard bully, Trumpstein the buffoon, threatens Russia with his army of woke weirdos and killers.
Unfortunately LH does what most pundits or commentators do, they miss abvious facts, so they can weave in their own agenda and prejudices.
Yes, Biden didn’t do much, he did make things worse, but that’s because Nazi NWO-Cons don’t do economics, but the US disaster, it’s decline began in the 70s, or as this well known ex politician, and economist, and now NaziTuber says, 1968, was the key year.
I’m not a massive fan, but Yani Vorouflkis does get some things right. I tend to think on smaller topics, he’s off the mark, but here, he’s on a very big topic, so it’s harder to miss the sweet spot. Must must add, much of the linked video is what I’ve been saying for a very long time, such as, it’s not about Taiwan, and it explains why Trump wants UKraine sorted, and why dumping Europe on paper for the short term, will bring Europe into line on military spending.

YV picks 1968, because Henry Kissinger saw the writing on the wall, but where YV doesn’t get all the puzzle pieces in place, is that Nazi Amerika has run a global extortion racket. It’s one thing to make the world pay a fee to trade in US dollars, but is another to force countries to use their savings to buy worthless US debt.
So, since the 1970, the US has run various systems to force the world to bankroll it’s economy, and more importantly, it’s military, but these systems no longer work. One, these countries can’t afford the extortion payments, and two, they’ve taken notice of Putin’s wise words for over 20 years, that there needs to be a multipolar world, and that the cake needs to be fairly shared out.
So, for over 20 years, the information was ignored, there’s been no recognition of this new information. It’s like a game of football, and your team ignores the fact that the opposition has players in your half, and they have the ball, but all your players are in the oppositions half, and are oblivious to what is going on. They did this to Putin, and I was commenting on this forum about what Putin was saying, and pointing out that Nazis, and their Nazi fake news were ignoring this new information. Now we have a huge global crisis.
Now, I’ll give you an example where information wasn’t ignored. As soon as MI6 realised they didn’t control Putin, MI6 went to war against Russia, the now over 29yr secret war. And this war became UKraine. We have bonkers Net Zero, not because the UK Nazis want to save the planet, no, it’s about debasing Russias oil and gas business, or bomb Iran, because China gets around 30% of its oil from Iran.
Given that Nazi Amerika is a Crown Corporation, and that the City Crime Cartels have controlled the global economy for well over 400yrs, this is the crisis at hand, and as YV explains in the video, this trade superhighway that China has built, is very appealing, and this is the megalomaniac behaviour of Donald Hitler, and Elon Goring.
Another example of information failure is that the EU failed to assess the information. When France got kicked out of Africa, Macron suddenly became interested in the Nazi UK agenda (MI6), the new imperialism of breaking Russia, stealing it’s resources, and laying conditions on anyone who wanted to buy them. It’s the same with aid money, it’s tied to buying arms. The US Nazis give money to the UKrainian Nazis, that money goes to the US MIC, and the US Nazi elites get kickback.
The massive US Nazi extortion system is breaking down, and it’s China, who presents the biggest threat to the Nazis. Donald Hitler is in serious trouble, because all of his predecessors ignored the information and filled their pockets.
The Nazis have been eating junk food, dropping up, getting pissed, and they’ve had cancer for quite some time, and it’s Donald Hitler who’s administering the chemotherapy, yes, chemo literally kills the entire body, or in this case, the entire world.
Donald Hitler doesn’t pay much tax, he’s run his businesses in or close to bankruptcy, this is the most sound way to run a business in Amerika. Take Elon Goring, he asked on Twitter if he should sell his Tesla stock to pay his tax bill. Virtually no one understood the message, that he was going to pay his taxes, and that no one with wealth paid taxes.
They are all Nazis (arm flick, nothing to see here), but the only difference is that Hitler and Goring understand business and basic economics. The option of trading your way to prosperity doesn’t exist, so it’s chemo, and war. They might even bump Hitler off, because he’s already looking like a fool. Bankrupts do very desperate things.
Commies always say America is a dying Empire when it is still a new country that has hardly started
It will benefit us all if Trump brings America down economically instead of in a world war. Then his next book he can call The Art of the Dole, because all but the richest will be on it.
President Trump seems to be completely unaware, or has no interest, in the fact that the US is being torn to shreds by unprecedented acts of nature, brought about by wars and the world’s war economy, destabilising the Earth’s equilibrium, physically and spiritually, one or two earthquakes in Washington and New York should bring him to his senses.
Plenty of mistakes added to my comment.
Fat Fred: Stick to the topic! WTF? How did that happen??
Canadian musician Neil Young who became Canadian-America says he fears he may be arrested when entering America after finishing his European tour, saying American freedom of speech is under threat in Trump’s America. I might have sympathised with him but Young became authoritarian himself when he demanded all those in his audience take the vaxx, so why should anyone care about his worries after he took a ride on the control wagon and now finds he wants to jump off it over his own issue but can’t.
He’s a great musician but he’s cantankerous as hell as he gets older. He was in concert a few years ago in America and when the crowd started singing along he angrily stopped playing and said, “Do you mind? I’m trying to play here.” After that I’d never have gone to another concert of his and I bet many don’t.
whats with this chap and his natzis ?
i fear for his mental state
What EVERYONE is missing is the blunt fact that the U.S. is run under “Emergency Powers” since March 9, 1933, and the American people are declared ENEMIES OF THE STATE -so how the hell can no one seem to get this through their head?
It is ALL set up to fail, right from the start. ALL this is, is a grand theft of all property, through the social insurance program and the fraudulent PERSON, i.e, the State owned titles that everyone is ignorantly acting their lives through.
The problem is that people are too stupid to see the elephant in the room, despite its huge noose.
Putting politicians in power is bad enough. But putting ACTORS in power is, perhaps, even worse…and the US, where I live, will reap what it sows, or sews (never mind that most sewed clothing now is “made in China.”).
Hohmann’s post says Russia and Ukraine need to fight it out. He also should have said Israel (not the US, but Israel) and Iran need to fight it out…but that’ll never happen since Talmudic Jewry (which clearly Satanyahu is part of) says “goyim” need to be the slaves of the “gods” known as Talmudic Jewry.
Had Trump had any interest in saving America, he would have terminated the EMERGENCY POWER that the Emergency bank Act of 1933 imposes and that would in turn obliterate the CRIMMINAL US Federal Reserve system, as well as the ultra criminal “legal system”.
