Many Americans wonder why Ukraine is a central issue in the USA midterm election. To those voices I would remind them that all aligned individuals and organizations who support the premise of Ukraine are core adversaries to the America-First doctrine. At the end of every anti-Trump voice, is an alignment with Ukraine. At this point it’s impossible to ignore. Once you see it you can never unsee it.
There is a very specific way that Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy publicly describes contacts with the U.S. administration when he is unable to manipulate the narrative within the conversation. What follows below is an example of that.
Note the difference in Zelenskyy’s tone.
[SOURCE]
The reality of dealing with a person skilled in diplomatic clarity (Rubio) is unnerving to those who are skilled at diplomatic political theater (Zelenskyy); their tone retreats, because the conversation is no longer swirling around pretense.
Zelenskyy, feeling empowered due to the anti-Trump elements that support him, speaks in a passive-aggressive tone and a disrespectful manner when generally talking about the Trump administration.
Zelenskyy’s prism is very narrow, self-centered, combative and bitter when he anticipates not getting his demands met. The most common reference for this expressed mindset is a teenage daughter who wantdaughter’ss something indulgent, but her Mom/Dad is not willing to give in to the demands and expectations. The daughter’s sympathetic friends are codependent enablers.
In the latest development, Zelenskyy is traveling to Oslo, Norway, where he will be surrounded by his codependents as he meets yet again with President Trump’s Emissary Steve Witkoff. Why Norway? Why does Zelenskyy need to be surrounded by EU enablers when discussing terms and conditions? The media always pretends not to notice this pattern.
In Norway Zelenskyy will be supported by Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere and Finland’s President Alexander Stubb. I would remind readers that it was Norwegian PM Stoere who previously claimed Russia had attacked Zelenskyy’s airplane in Moldova with a drone strike – that nonsense was entirely made up yet spread by EU media quickly.
Meanwhile Finland (bordering Northern Russia) has recently been supporting 1,000+ drone flights from Ukraine that crossed Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia on the way to strike St Petersburg, Russia. Now, reasonable people will notice that’s a long route for small drones over EU-NATO countries to avoid Russian anti-drone defenses.
Such a reasonably minded person will also note that’s a very long distance for drone propulsion (fuel) to last, and that reasonable person will likely then realize the 1,000+ drones that targeted St Petersburg didn’t originate in Ukraine at all.
The most likely scenario was the 1,000+ drones were launched by Ukraine operatives from inside NATO countries including Estonia – which happens to be the home country of Kaja Kallas the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice-President of the European Commission.
CTH will also emphasize the timing here. Presumably, if you accept the NATO narrative, the 1,000+ drones took off from western Ukraine, flew north through Poland, crossed Lithuania (a few crashed there) and then Latvia, and finally turned east toward St Petersburg from Estonia at the very end; again, presumably, to avoid Russian air defenses.
This complicated 1,000+ drone operation happened at exactly the same time Zelenskyy was creating a very specific narrative about being allowed to use Starshield for these types of targeting operations.
Stand back and look at this construct. Zelenskyy’s NATO friends (Poland, Lithuania, Estonia, Finland, Norway, etc., continue to provoke a counterattack by Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin. EU-NATO is openly arming, supporting and now assisting in launching direct attacks against a nuclear-armed superpower.
Ultimately this is why the lying liar who lies, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, must constantly be surrounded by his EU defenders as he meets with President Trump’s Emissary for peace, Steve Witkoff. If Zelenskyy stands alone in the discussion he runs the risk of exposing EU-NATO fraud, manipulation and ultimately control by his EU-NATO handlers.
This twisted network of schemes and conniving interests is why Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy needs Norway to protect him from direct inquisition by Witkoff. Standing on the truth doesn’t need support or even a memory. Standing on a mountain of lies requires lots of help to remain stable.
OSLO, Oct 20 (Reuters) – Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskiy will fly to Oslo to meet US special envoy Steve Witkoff on Tuesday, trying to repair ties with Washington that have deteriorated sharply over the past two weeks as President Donald Trump has increasingly courted Moscow.
Trump, who has waived sanctions on Russia in what he says is an effort to lower US fuel prices, has repeatedly rebuked Zelenskiy. Kyiv says Washington has lately failed to provide early warning notification of Russian missile launches, and has throttled SpaceX satellite links that guide Ukrainian drones.
On Monday, Trump said “Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine” and “Zelenskiy is not helping matters much”. He called on Kyiv to find “somebody else to negotiate”.
Zelenskiy said he had spoken with Secretary of State Marco Rubio on issues including ballistic missile interceptors, early warning of Russian missile attacks and “the situation with Starlink/Starshield, which needs to be restored”, referring to the SpaceX satellite system.
[…] Western European countries consider defending Ukraine from Russia’s invasion to be an existential issue for the continent’s security and have strongly backed Zelenskiy, seeking to head off a deeper rupture between Washington and Kyiv.
The United States under Trump has already largely stopped providing weapons to Ukraine, but allows European countries to buy them on Kyiv’s behalf and provides intelligence and technology that Europe can’t match.
Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere said the goal of hosting Tuesday’s meetings was “to steer the diplomatic efforts onto a more constructive path”.
Finland’s President Alexander Stubb said he would attend meetings with Zelenskiy and Stoere to discuss “Russia’s illegal war of aggression against Ukraine and the overall security situation in Europe.” (read more)
“every anti-Trump voice, is an alignment with Ukraine…Once you see it you can never unsee it”
This assertion is borne out every day in a hundred ways.
Except one: Lindsey Graham. 100% in the tank for Ukraine, but also full-throated help for Pres. Trump.
Then he arrives dead coming back from Ukraine. Hmmm….[suspicious cat]
Except in the tank means money laundering. Skimming 10% of 350+ billion dollars to Ukraine is 35 billion dollars. More than enough to spread around. A lot of democrats and republicans got their beaks wet. Those politicians that did do not want it revealed by Ukraine they greased some of our politicians to keep the money train going. Tillis/Cornyn, et al. Trump put an end to their money train. Which is why they are working with their friends in Congress to sabotage Trump at every turn.
Well… that’s one of the reasons for their sabotage.
The EO
Obama should be included
To paraphrase Bill Clinton, have Obama serving the wine.
EU and Clinton are of the same mindset.
Obama has good reason to hate the Clintons.
EU-NATO starting WWIII against Russia. U.S. needs to get the hell out of NATO.
Which is precisely why they had Congress ram through a law preventing the President from leaving NATO when it started to look like Trump was going to be President again.
Just note publicly that NATO provoked WWIII and sit it out.

“IT’S OFFICIAL: President Trump announces the United States will have to WITHDRAW from European nations if they fall to the invasion and become anti-Western
“If they don’t soon find their way, we will have no choice but to LEAVE.”
“When we asked for help in Iran…we spend so much on NATO…they weren’t there to help!”
“It’s something we can NEVER forget.”
America has spent decades and trillions defending Europe. Trump is done doing it without getting anything back
If Europe won’t defend its own borders, why should Americans bail them out?!
STEP UP, EUROPE. Shut your borders, surge defense spending, and NEVER fall to the invaders of the 3rd world!”

The USA is a direct participant in the war
They are not flying sightseeing flights.
WWII was not talked to death.
Germany and Japan were defeated then they signed agreements that were put in front of them.
They had no say in the terms and agreements.
USA cannot claim to be trying to end the war while working 24/7 to conduct that war
The U.S. and NATO military surveillance flights do not enter Ukrainian airspace; instead, they operate continuously along NATO’s eastern flank and over international waters in the Black Sea. These airborne intelligence-gathering missions use airspace in bordering countries like Romania and Poland to monitor Russian troop movements, radar positions, and missile launches inside Ukraine.
Typical Flight Routes & Assets
Public flight tracking data sourced reveals a highly coordinated rotation of strategic reconnaissance aircraft patrolling the periphery of the conflict:
The Black Sea & Romania Corridor: U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft and ARTEMIS II reconnaissance jets frequently orbit over international waters in the Black Sea and within Romanian airspace. Operating roughly 150 miles west of Russian naval strongholds like Sevastopol, these assets keep strict tabs on Russia’s Black Sea Fleet. The Eastern Flank (Poland & the Baltics): High-altitude unmanned drones, specifically the USAF RQ-4B Global Hawk, routinely conduct marathon 18-hour missions. These flights typically launch from Sigonella Air Base in Sicily and transit through Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, and Poland to provide persistent day-and-night intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) along the border. Electronic & Signal Intelligence (SIGINT): Heavy electronic intelligence aircraft like the USAF RC-135U Combat Sent and the British RAF RC-135W Rivet Joint frequently launch from bases in England. They fly routes bypassing Russia’s Kaliningrad enclave to monitor electromagnetic and radar signatures across the Baltic states, Poland, and Ukraine’s northern periphery.AWACS Patrols: NATO E-3 Sentry Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) planes fly long-duration sorties from Western Europe (such as central France) into Romanian airspace. Flying at 34,000 feet, their powerful rotating radar domes track airborne threats, bombing runs, and missile launches, feeding that tactical picture directly to ground commanders in real-time.
Interesting post.
“USA cannot claim to be trying to end the war while working 24/7 to conduct that war”
usa isnt doing shit for this war. the funding was already in under biden. this is all bullshitt trying to get the russia russia russia bullshit starting for a midterm win. after the midterms, they are screwed.
“I spoke with Marco Rubio….”
The disrespect is front and center. Ignoring Rubio’s title completely. Does he also speak to “Donald Trump”, vs speaking to “President Trump”?
Especially since EVERY conversation is one-sided, “what can YOU do for ME?”.
Rubio should have let little Z’s call go to voicemail. Trump’s entire administration should do the same. Freeze him out, and just deal directly with Putin. After all, the grownups are speaking.
👍
because the contents are a lie, and he knows the direct calling out wont be done until all targets are already zero’d in. similar to iran moutains being toppled
I caught that. Calling our SoS by his first name is unacceptable.
Will Witkoff be bold enough to call out this Little Nazi?
Witkoff is nobody’s fool 🙂
I hope! It is time to speak truth to these liars and quit pussy-footing around!
Witkoff and Rubio need to be on exactly the same page today. That way the weasel can’t stir things up.
Remember Sundance’s definition of “The President’s Personal Emmisary”? Witkoff has proven to be just that…
I’m sure that Rubio and Witkoff fully brief and de-brief each other after talking with the “spoiled child.” His days are numbered….
I’d like Witkoff to give mr. Z an opportunity to admit the truth and surrender. If not then give him a gift made of lead.
Enough with the BS. You can’t have diplomatic discussions with a mental midget.
Insufferable. All of it!
You’re not going to schmooze Sec. Rubio with that drivel, mein PenisFuhrer.
ps; Steiner will come!
you could work the reverse association equally well in most cases. Every pro-Ukraine voice is in full alignment with the anti-Trump movement in government. Might be some isolated exceptions, but not many. That would mean nearly the entire GOP and its members are basically at-odds with Trump and his agenda, which we know they are if you take an honest look without rose-colored glasses. Two years in Trump’s second term and not one thing on his agenda legislatively passed. Think about that for a few minutes.
Everyone domestically and around the world is just stalling, playing games, delaying, and waiting on Trump to be gone. Whether it’s Jan 2029 or by a bullet, they don’t care much. Just gone.
Federal Judges are the best at doing just that. Congress isn’t far behind. It’s all kind of obvious, isn’t it?
it had to happen this way. all conspirators have to come out the shadow. the midterms was the vehicle
.
Zelensky’s English is not so good, right?
Instead of thanking Americans who ‘support fair approaches,
didn’t he mean:
Thanks to the Americans who are benefitting from the fare that approaches Ukraine by receiving their portion of that fare that prompts them to support Ukraine . . .?
shame on Poland, Lithuania, Estonia, Finland, Norway, etc. for allowing their airspace to be used
in theses attacks, or indeed for providing actual launch sites for the same purpose.
i expected a bit better from Poland and Lithuania, and at least a non-committal stance from the others.
we know that France, UK, and Germany are all in, and if Z ever gets his hands on long range ICBMs,
i’d bet Canada would probably be more than willing to facilitate their use.
time to ramp up PT’s insistence that NATO members get current on their dues – in full.
that seemed to be the only thing that rattled these war hungry nutcases.
the rest of this has been chewed over ad infinitum, ad nauseum.
that these countries are willing to alienate their biggest benefactor says it all.
how does the “coalition of the willing” envision things will go if they get their wish
for war with Russia, ESPECIALLY if the U.S. remains neutral?
perhaps PT can sit them all down at the G20 for a heads up:
“not on our dime, not with our help, not with our hardware –
you’re on your own come what may.”
(oh, and no reconstruction of the smoldering wreckage, either.)
Canada has access to ICBMs?
“…and *if* Z ever gets his hands on long range ICBMs,
i’d bet Canada would probably be more than willing to facilitate their use.”
🥴
sorry, i’m a little slow on the uptake today. 😂
my point, which i did not make clearly,
is that i now believe there are no lengths to which NATO, et al
will not go to provoke the U.S. and Russia.
if Z got some black market long range missiles,
i have no doubt Canada would offer a site to launch them –
so much the better from the front yard of the U.S.
they’re just that crazy.
don’t know if America has any hardware left in Canada from the days of NORAD or whatever,
just sayin’ those fools would pull any stunt for the “cause”.
peace, PPS. ✌😁
👍
“Ukraine”, which practically means the West’s war on Russia, has been the central political issue for the Western ruling class ever since 2014. I considered myself pretty clued in to America politics at the time, and I was quite unware that we were at war with Russia. It was only the insane reaction to Trump in 2015 and onwards and the accusation of his being a Russian agent which made it obvious that something was going on.
Even today I think for the average American Ukraine/Russia is a very minor side issue. But for our ruling class, both political parties, the war on Russia is THE most important issue there is. It’s why they lawfared Trump in his first term, why they stole the 2020 election, why they tried to jail or kill Trump afterwards. This is the issue they care about, even more than opening the borders or trans rights or any domestic subject. They want to conquer Russia, even at the risk of a global nuclear war. This may make no sense to anybody outside of their own circle, but that is very clearly their objective.
In order for the globalist agenda to succeed there are two primary nations that must be destroyed as independent sovereign states. These are the USA and Russia. As long as these two nations continue to stand they will be a significant obstacle for all the various globalist groups. This is why the WEF, China, Islam, multi-national corporatists, professional politicians, intelligence agencies, and other globalist groups and organizations can work together to achieve these common goals.
They fight the battle for who leads the globalist new world after the obstacles that are blocking the way for any of them have been removed.
Since when did we negotiate with Terrorists…. Z man fits that exact description… and he is trying to entangle people in the Administration like a Democrat Traitor does.
mapping out the traitors from within. via continuing the bullshit
Once again, SD is right on target. Well said.
There’s no doubt in my mind that Z & Co. is keeping up this lie (and keeping up the war) until after the midterms in the U.S. My question is – – “then what”?
It seems to me Z & Co. have placed all their chips on the Democrats taking control of at least one chamber of Congress, if not both. The continuation of the war, and Z’s funding, depend on it.
If Pres. Trump had said on Day One of his administration, “As Commander-in-Chief I am ending all US involvement in Ukraine, the war is over, at least for the US, as I promised during my campaign and I’m a man of my word” when he was addressing the crowd in Capitol One Arena and nation it would’ve been over. And there’s nothing the War Pigs could’ve done about it. And if they’d have tried the impeachment route the public wouldn’t have supported it, he was fulfilling a campaign promise.
He had a window of opportunity at the beginning, he had a mandate, and those who stood against him would’ve gotten run over.
He chose not to. And every after Day One has made ending the war harder, its been normalized under his administration, it has become his war as much as LBJ’s Vietnam became Nixon’s. Sad.
So little Z’ “… insists on early warning of Russia’s ballistic missiles attacks”–from an opponent who he insists is lying all the time.
So Russia should agree to it and then pelt Ukrainian comms with false warnings 24/7.
Trump needs to play mean girl and give him the silent treatment. Congress is going to impeach Trump either way next year so may as well give them a good reason.
I don’t think we will lose the House or Senate
Your optimism relative to Congress sounds like CNN garbage.
Again we see the “illegal war of aggression” BS. Doesn’t Alexander Stubb know by now this whole Ukraine thing was a CIA setup to antagonize Russia during the Biden administration? Something the light bringer didn’t have the balls to do when he was POTUS. He waited until he had the demented autopen installed to take the slings and arrows.
The goal and intent at this point is to goad Russia into committing an act of war against any NATO member so they can force the USA into a kinetic war against Russia. The globalists are hoping this will finally bring about the end of both Russia and the US as independent nations and and are hopeful a few billion lives are lost in the process.
Little Z: “the lying liar who lies.” Yes indeed, thank you Sundance for summing up the little squirt so succinctly.
its obvious the ukraine war will be over in 4 months or less. he was forced to say something so against the usa, that what comes next is obvious
watch the feb 28 2025 meeting with him and pdjt… no other person ever talks as PDJT is talking except for this asshole
Cancel the meeting.; ignore Zero. USA, Russia, China.
“Western European countries consider defending Ukraine from Russia’s invasion to be an existential issue for the continent’s security”
As if.
If, western european countries (polly-titans) were concerned about the security of Europe they would not have imported millions of incompatible ethnic groups wanting to wage a holy war.
I have been reading a lot of extremely disparing posts on ArmstrongEconomics re: Kallas (and Zelensky) of late. Literally, he hates them both (his words). Below are a few excerpts:
FTA: Kaja Kallas is Europe’s counterpart to Victoria Nuland and ought to be removed from office, handed a gun, and sent to the front lines in Ukraine—where she could fulfill her personal dream of killing Russians. This amounts to a personal vendetta, since she claims Russia persecuted her family and deported them to Siberia. Of course, that was Stalin. Yet she personally hates every Russian and believes they must pay with their lives for Joseph Stalin’s actions—the same Stalin whom even Lenin warned should not be allowed to succeed him. Europe will NEVER know peace as long as she remains in power.
Kaja Kallas has repeatedly and publicly stated that her family was persecuted by Russia (specifically the Soviet regime). She frequently cites her family’s deportation to Siberia as a direct and personal example of Russian repression. Destroying the Russian people is her constant agenda, which is why she gets along with Zelensky, a neo-Nazi. She must be removed from office, or she will destroy Europe to satisfy her personal hatred. That is a conflict of interest!!!!!
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/europes-current-economy/kallas-zelensky-cannot-sleep-as-long-as-one-russian-is-still-breathing/
FTA: from a March 2025 post:
Kallas has been blinded by her newfound role and overestimates her power. After Zelensky’s infamous meeting with Trump, Kallas declared Trump was unfit to lead the US, tweeting “the free world needs a new leader.” Not exactly the response of a diplomat. She immediately released demands to the 27 European Union members, demanding 1.5 million rounds of artillery ammunition and additional aid for Ukraine. People began calling the €40 billion the “Kallas Plan” as she alone felt that she had the authority to dictate defense spending for the entire European Union.
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/europes-current-economy/the-kallas-plan-destroy-russia-and-europe/
FTA: Feb 2025 post
Kaja Kallas, as the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, is demanding NATO finally admit Ukraine. The former Estonian prime minister who has aspirations of one day becoming NATO Secretary General has a deep hatred for Russia and all Russians. One must carefully question her motives as she advances through the ranks of neocons, causing the world to teeter on the brink of world war.
Slim Kallas, Kaja’s father, was a member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union from 1973-1990. He was appointed as the President of the Bank of Estonia in 1991, after Estonia restored its independence. Later becoming a liberal founder of the Estonian Reform Party, Kallas served in various governmental positions always with a keen focus on distancing Estonia from all Russian influence.
Kaja Kallas has been openly anti-Russia since she entered politics. As prime minister, she demanded that all Russian and Soviet-era monuments be removed, landing her on the Russian Federation’s wanted list. The EU’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy applauded her notoriety and open hatred of Russia.
Alex Soros, son of geopolitical meddler globalist George Soros, called her “one of Europe’s real heroes” in a social media post. “Inspiring meeting with Estonian Prime Minister, @kajakallas, one of Europe’s real hero’s! Prime Minister Kallas has been doing so much for European and transatlantic unity as well as coordination as we face the ongoing crisis with Russia,” the younger Soros posted back in February 2022.
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/world-news/war/kaja-kallas-a-neocon-to-watch/
Kaja Kallas is a neocon to watch as she aims to advance in the ranks at NATO with the full backing of the establishment.
Ukraine seems to be the only country Zelenskyy hasn’t visited recently.
Good grief, the Little Twerp is so annoying.
I can only imagine the private convos between Witkoff, Marco and PDJT!
Mearsheimer says Witkoff and Kushner are incompetent and the Russians have no faith in our ability to bring Ukraine to a negotiated resolution. They are going to have to wreck Ukraine (further) and take more territory. In short, the Ukrainian position is getting worse all the time. Maybe this is the EU reaponse-making it (or trying to) a wider war.
If we want this to end, we must call out NATO/EU for participating in this war and allowing missles/drones to originate from their country to attack Russia. We, the USA, need to stop selling NATO weapons that are then used by Ukraine. This saga is growing cobwebs.
I’m throwing this out , as a sort of JOKE. But it would be cool if TRUMP joins Russia against Z and EU … and both send drones into EU/Z .
Drones into different EU countries our spy craft know who joined Z with weapons and money.
I don’t know how China would respond do this, and I would be Laughing if China joined the USA/Russia to go after Z and EU.
It is joke … strange bed fellows. 🙂
When asked, my response is always “I don’t have a dog in this fight”. Often in life, there are no good guys, just two bad guys going at each other. Just walk away and let them beat the crap out of each other.
To me, the analogy is I’m on the road and step into a bar for a drink. Two guys over at the pool table start whaling on each other. The bartender tells me, “Oh my gosh, someone’s going to get killed. You look like you can handle yourself, you should go break it up.” I tell him it’s his bar, his town, and his customers. He can deal with it. I pay for my beer and go back to my hotel. Maybe I read something about it in the papers the next morning.
