A little detail from behind the wire. I was asked very recently for my thoughts on why President Trump is a giant of influence in world leadership, my response was simple: President Trump’s power is bottom up, historic global power structures are top down.
President Trump doesn’t just represent an office or title, nor does he simply represent the majority of the American people; President Trump’s voice is the voice of every ordinary person, what the non-English speaking world defines as “simple people,” and he channels a global message from the majority to the top of the highest power structures.
Smart leaders like Vladimir Putin recognize this power source, and they don’t challenge it – they align with it. Stupid leaders, those who do not recognize their national nakedness like Emmanuel Macron, attempt to avoid & manipulate it. The Make America Great Again doctrine is a borderless goal, empowering people to make their own lives great.
(VIA ABC) – […] Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Friday he stands by his comments from Brussels earlier this week on it being unrealistic for Ukraine to be offered NATO membership as part of a settlement, for it to regain its pre-2014 territory, or for U.S. troops to enter the country to keep the peace.
“My job today, and in Brussels, was to introduce realism to the conversation – the reality that returning to 2014 borders as part of a negotiated settlement is unlikely; the reality of U.S. troops in Ukraine is unlikely; the reality of Ukraine membership in NATO as a part of a negotiated settlement unlikely. And I stand by the comments that I made on that first day in the Ukraine Contact Group,” Hegseth said at a press conference in Poland Friday. (source)
Vice President […] Vance engaged in a bilateral meeting with the NATO Secretary General at the Munich Security Conference, noting the “president’s desire to see NATO spend a little bit more resources on defense,” a point also being echoed by U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth while he continues to meet with his counterparts in Poland.
Vance also wants to ensure “NATO is built for future,” and said he wished that “NATO does a little bit more burden sharing in Europe, so the United States can focus on some of our challenges in these stages.”
♦ A conversation behind the wire – Within Eastern Europe there are very smart and pragmatic people, the kind of political research people who have clear eyes on the specific influences within the body politic. To a person each of them holds the opinion that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is directly connected to the narcotics trade in Europe.
If the U.S. intelligence apparatus maintains parts of their deepest black book operations through international drug sales, then it doesn’t take a leap to discover how the CIA influence in the background of Zelenskyy may be structured. Food for thought.
Then Z is violating the first rule of selling drugs – don’t snort your own supply. Just saying..
And wear pants.
Dang it!!! You people are good🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Connect the dots…now President Trump’s Executive Order on drug cartels…takes on additional meaning.
Just love see’n “dot connectors!”
And a button down shirt a suit jacket and a tie!
He DOES look exactly like a drug dealer,..now I understand why he had that whole “look”,…it wasn’t “an embattled, war-time leader of his people”,…its a drug dealer thug.
I always thought Z got his hands on Fidel Castro’s old wardrobe.
You mean Miss Justine’s father?
….It’s actually from the wear house at central casting….
I thought it was from the dumpster behind the Goodwill.
Men’s Wearhouse. Your Gun, A Love the Way You Look!
Just pull down the drop box and select short pudgy dicktator!
Who have positioned himself as dictator, no less!
If Z only knew how stupid he looks in his “costume” he would be embarrassed.
Nah, he is at the trough and sees no further than his nose. Nasty little man – in the fullness of time…
and don’t record yourself on your laptop.
…’don’t get high on your own supply….’
Remember, this is the guy that played chopsticks on a piano, with his d*ck; he has no capacity to feel shame.
After Trump gets through with him he wont be able to find his dick.
Really?
Everyday the world steps back from insanity…
Everyday it looks like the taxpayers of the Untied States have funded the insanity…
Thanks to President Trump, sanity is returning to US and the world…
When Justice comes for those who are responsible for the insanity…
NO MERCY!
To think, in reality, America taxpayers could very well have 50% of their tax money in their own pockets, they have abused us so
Playing with our money, as if it’s theirs
I can’t tell you how upset I am at the LARGENESS of this
I hope that whatever ‘reconciliation’ bill comes out of con-gress includes a significant personal income tax cut retroactive to 2024.
2014?
👍
back to 1909…
Understood. Simply trying to triage and manage surviving the upcoming quarterly payment.
Or at least AD 1913!!!
na…1909 is when it passed “the people’s house”…spit….
Bingo. EXACTLY the year my brain went to !!!
How about we END income tax and just have sales taxes and corporate taxes (which of course will get passed on to the buyer). No paperwork. No penalties for filing late. Tariffs, sales taxes, honest procurement procedures, and massively reduced fraud. Imagine: the US could operate efficiently and within budget.
How about 1914?
Maybe we could call it ” the 1914 Project”.
how about a refund of taxes paid (in my case since 1964) and SS collected, with interest.
Let me put this as simply as possible…
The 16th Amendment put a gun to our heads, much like a mugger…
The 16th Amendment is the reason this MONSTER was birthed…
Without the ability to STEAL from us, both in real time and from OUR future this would NEVER have happened…
A STARVING Government is a COMPLACENT one…
They have used OUR MONEY to attack us and make us SUBMIT…
We have given a SPOILD BRAT access to our bank accounts…
THIS NEEDS TO END NOW!
And, to those THIEVES still alive….
NO MERCY!
AMEN! And thank you for your service!!!
andthe17th Amendment neutered the States.
They needed both to create the Fed…
Monied interests and all…
This SCAM has been going on for over 100 years…
The time to end it is NOW!
The largeness of their largesse = larceny
Seems that desperation is having some step toward insanity
…I saw where “Russia” struck Chernoble reactor 4 containment shield overnight…..🤔
False Flag….? Seems to fit known “playbook”……
One rule above all vis a vis the “news”…
Trust NOTHING, verify EVERYTHING…
And ALWAYS read between the lines…
There needs to be a PENALTY for reporting propaganda…
NO MERCY!
Agreed! W/Extreme prejudice …..
( Do Marines really eat their dead….?🤪🤙🏻)
We eat the enemies of our Constitution….(figuratively of course…lol)
And you’ve earned the right to do that! Thank you for your service.
Vietnam era vet here, we were taught (Basic Training) the spirit of the bayonet was “charge!” but I always felt that it was”Kill!” When you “fixed bayonets” you were close to hand to hand combat. Killing was the rule of the event! Block, Parry, Thrust!
Something weird about it, they moved all people out but dogs have been living there for the whole time.
It’s even been on Animal Planet. Dogs of Chernobyl or some such name.
TWO headed dogs……?😷😉😁
FWIW….Id guess it was still a ways from the reactors themselves…like the “town” proper…..🤷🏼…no….?
I think I saw a documentary where people entered control buildings and where 1st. responders ditched their outerwear boots, & gloves….
I don’t believe it was ever as bad as MEDIA embellishment hoped it would be. It seems to be a wildlife park today much like the “dangerous nuclear waste contaminted Rocky Flats”.
Wildlife in general has come back and are thriving. I saw a documentary on the phenomenon some time ago on the web. Cant remember but maybe surfing Youtube documentaries…
It was very informative.
Nuclear Powered Evolution | The Wolves of Chernobyl Reveal Human Potential – YouTube 👆👆
Yup, that is the one!
Yep……
Animals generally don’t live as long as humans do, so they can complete their lifecycle without ever having to worry about the radiation. It’s not an acceptable level by human standards as we know long term it will cause cancer, but the animals are doing just fine.
You can give a cockroach way over a million rads and it’ll walk away!
They’re our successors, if we ever fail to peacefully resolve our differences.
We really don’t know much about low level radiation effects.
There’s a region in China that has about ten times the background radiation as we receive in the USA.
When a Chinese scientist compared the incidence of cancer, disease and average lifetime to another region in China with background radiation similar to the USA, he found the high radiation area had less cancer, less disease and longer lifespan.
When he presented the research, to the sociology department at U SoCal, the esteemed sociologists started laughing and snickering. It was embarrassing! They thought the researcher, being Chinese, had got his slides backwards.
We weren’t part of sociology, and as we crashed this presentation, we sat at the very back and slightly above everyone.
The Chinese researcher corrected the sociologists and it was our turn to laugh and snicker at them.
It’s called hormesis.
Something beneficial in tiny amounts but lethal in larger doses.
Used in a sentence…
FraudXi’s research on exposing beagles to MSLSD’s Rachel Madcow killed every one, no matter how small the exposure.
After many years of research FraudXi determined that there was no hormetic effect.
Good Point
CIA is getting upset.
Welp, the CIA has always dealt direct with known criminals, so anything’s possible.
If Z is involved with that, I guarantee his sudden death is forthcoming. They’ll probably want to liquidate a sizable number too, for silence. Explosion or plane crash?
It’d facilitate elections. Everybody closes the book. But we’ll know.
Yeah. And if I was a member of that ‘group’ I’d certainly have second thoughts about climbing in/on any mode of transportation that included a large group of ‘US’, along with li’l z, in the same vehicle/plane/train/hot air balloon.
The Bros. Diem. Technically, it will be “his own people” that will do him in….
Banderites.
Azov.
💀🙏💀
Motorized scooter anyone?
I hear the popularity of those things is blowing up!
“If Z is involved with that, I guarantee his sudden death is forthcoming.”
Yes. This is one of the several reasons I believe Zelensky is now an expendable loose end that will get snipped clean in the coming days.
Although the drug information may be surprising to some, pro-Russian sites have called Zelensky the Narcofuhrer. They have shown video that supports the idea that Zelensky himself is a cocaine addict.
The CIA was deeply involved in the opium crops in Afghanistan. I have heard that the Taliban are burning field after field to get rid of the drugs and stop the drug trade. After the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, the CIA had to have another source of black book, deniable income.
That is why I am praying that we get out of Ukraine completely….no corporations, no troops, no weapons sales, no CIA trainers, no DOD biolabs. OUT. And end to the money laundering and whatever else has been the big attraction for the support of Ukraine which is beyond puzzling unless some big money is involved for all the elites.
BS, the Taliban is SELLING it
To our drug addicts
Iran Contra and the CIA trafficking of crack cocaine. A reporter with the San Jose Mercury outed the CIA/crack cocaine epidemic in south central LA.
Then the opium fields of Afghanistan and the hundreds of thousands of deaths from the Heroin being imported to USA by lettered agency.
Black ops have been funded with drug money for decades.
And never forget the LSD of the flower children generations and lettered agency involvement
Human trafficing, as well. A war like that creates a LOT of orphans,…
I was looking to see if anyone would mention the kids. They still want to complain about Putin rescuing kids.
Also selling body parts.
You can only sell drugs once and then you have to make more.
You can sell a sex slave multiple times a day until they die.
Incredibly evil.

https://revolver.news/2025/02/update-on-tx-teacher-accused-of-trafficking-students-to-5-10-men-per-night/
I have seen video that I know is doctored Russian propaganda, and I have also seen analysis from people with some expertise that suggests that Zelensky does in fact use coke.
We can go back to the drug fields of Cambodia and Laos. The boys and girls from “the farm” have quite a sordid history.
Yup, smuggled in the body bags of our soldiers,…so disgusting.
Ukraine must be rendered a landlocked rump state of neither import nor menace.
Of no use to the Derps from any shore.
To the River!
Deny the Sea!
Novorossiya will be Free!
I recall seeing a video clip in the summer of 2023 where little Vlody was visiting the U.K.’s PM at the time (Rishi Sunak) and Z was most definitely tweaking on camera.
Plain talking from an American administration as if I have never seen in my life.
Laws on legalization and criminalization of drugs fuel CIA influence ops. Laws are always abused to make money for someone and something.
The biggest criminals are the lawmakers.
There is no scenario I can envision where this ends well for Z .
He made his deal with the devil. So be it.
Trump was re-elected because he is the champion of those whom the Psalmist calls “The quiet in the land,” those who are exploited and deceived by the powers that be: “… they do not speak peace, but against those who are quiet in the land they devise words of deceit.” (Psalm 35:20)
Red State’s Bonchie applauds J.D. Vance’s speech. Charlie Kirk says Vance is a 10.

Only a month ago, the ObidenReich was telling–and paying–them to do the opposite.
Whiplash!
Excellent speech. Watched it twice.
“Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Friday he stands by his comments from Brussels earlier this week on it being unrealistic for Ukraine to be offered NATO membership as part of a settlement, for it to regain its pre-2014 territory, or for U.S. troops to enter the country to keep the peace. “
Bravo!
When asked in the Oval, PDJT essentially backed Hagseth, and made it clear Pete wasn’t “talking out of turn”, but was speaking for the administration, and voicing a pragmatice, unpleasant truth which the “never give up, never surrender, I stand with Ukraine till the bitter end” crowd are going to have to accept.
PDJT has essentially spoken the unspeakable truth, voicing that it was Biden and Zalensky, stupidly saying Ukraine could be in NATO, it was NATOS agressive expansion, right to Russias border, that triggered this action by Russia.
And, Russia is winning,..and so can largely dictate the terms.
The reporters from State media tried to get him to walk it back. Guess they couldn’t believe it.
The entire Ukraine scam from 2014 forward was nothing but a big cash kickback scheme. Provoke Russia into action and the kickbacks expanded. Russia could take the whole dump & all but a few 1000 kickback recipients wouldn’t even breath hard
Stunning. The Octopus is becoming visible.
Communists don’t do free speech.
I am looking forward to the French and German populations coughing up half of their 6 week annual vacations MINIMUM.
Anyone else recall how French citizens rioted when their retirement age went from 62 to 64?
I wonder if the crack windshield on the plane was on purpose?
..anf hitting US warship…..
Rabio is out of the picture?
Involved with a Panamanian flagged ship…? Yeah right…
For Sale…Northern Panhandle of Texas…oceanfront lot with lighthouse.
Inspirational…
When President Trump speaks directly or through others, he is speaking as much to those benighted people, deceived then crushed by an unelected hierarchy who fraudulently promised an EU unicorn, as he does to the lying thugs with their jackboots and their despotic agendas.
In fact, I believe he, Vance, and Hegseth (in this instance) are really directing their messages over the heads of the arrogant elitist tyrants present for them.
Time to get up off your knees, European people.
We did…
Hope you were listening.
STAND!
I have had hopes since November 5 that those in Europe who unwittingly signed their enslavement papers by virtue of voting “Yes” on the EU referendum would foment their own “revolutions”, Maquis. They may yet happen. They’d better happen…
Yes, STAND!!
The lights once again are going out all over Europe.
And the time to prevent Western Christian civilization from falling into the abyss grows shorter by the day.
Is it already too late? Can Europe adopt an agressive remigration plan, to send the muslim hoardse back?
I’m trying very hard to not say it, dutch.
In fact, I fear it is.
Populism Uber Eux!!
The entire world is watching, would be free peoples are rising!!
He was not well received, was he…
But what he said needed saying.
Loved his comment, if we could stand 12 (IIRC) years of Greta Thunberg, they could stand a few months of Elon Musk.
Dead air followed 😂
I am praying the tide is turning…slowly as it always does, but turning all the same.
As the Haarvaarrdddd folks like to say “the adults are in the room”. Nappy time for the children.
Rush would often say that Donald Trump is untouchable because he was not made ‘by the system’ and this is why that same system can’t do a damn thing to take him down..
I’m paraphrasing, he talked about this fairly often as he was observing the latest attack they were launching at Trump- Rush of course knew full well that it wasn’t going to work.
This would be a great time for someone to go dig out some of these Rush clips on this topic because we all know, El Rushbo always nailed it.
El Rushbo should be treated as an American treasure like Will Rodgers.
Certain to be featured in PDJT’s Statuary Garden of American Heroes.
So far we seem to be off to a great start. Vance, Hegseth and Rubio are speaking very forcefully about America First policies and asserting American strength on the foriegn stage while the President is covering home turf for now. I’m loving it!
After seeing the tip of the iceberg of government corruption as is being brought before our eyes by our Valiant Leader, I am reinforced in my own understanding of reality that is pretty much in line with President Trump. He needs to fire 90% of the government and start over. Many of the 90% should be examined and punished if guilty, and saying “I was just following orders” will not cut it. Anyone tainted by corruption and leftist, socialist leanings should be the first to go. It is conservative values and norms that will save this nation.
Vance and Hedgeseth are bringing honor back to American foreign policy. Straight talkers who don’t waiver when the Marxists start to play the victim.
NATO The last remaining hub of the military industrial complex. End this uniparty farce created by world government’s.
Never forget The City.
Nor their creation the WEF, which is a Suicide Pact for the West on behalf of China.
Furthermore, I consider that the Derp State, writ Global, MUST be destroyed!!
Is being, my friend,….is being destroyed.
We have well passed the tipping point, and all of their sound and fury, signifying nothing,…means less than nothing.
It is, yet, The City has endured centuries, fueled by conspiracies that have endured millennia; they cannot be allowed to escape accountability, their schemes are myriad and must all be known and erased.
.
Fffffff… The ostensible purpose of NATO is mutual defense. How in hell does it benefit the U.S. to have so many useless little “partners” in NATO with nothing to offer that could help the U.S. The “welfare” goes only one way.
Time to get OUT of NATO.
.
That is what I was thinking, what’s this NATO ‘built for the future’ business?
I don’t care what they do with NATO over there, as long as we ain’t in it.
Ideally, they’d get rid of it so they’d have nothing to fight over, but let them do as the please, as long as I don’t have to pay for it.
It may seem at times the we are going it alone. It also may seem at times that we need to go it alone.
But you can’t just break off from NATO unless you’re ready to partially or totally assume new partnerships with other nations that have like or similar ideologies and rooted Christian beliefs. Speaking for or like the US.
Ask yourself what other nations even come close to this as you look around the world today. That paradigm is shifting in directions we may not have thought of even just a few years ago.
Why,,, because our magnificent leader PDJT just put us on a level playing field with all of our trading partners. Basically the rest of the world. We are going to find a new paradigm with new partnerships one can assume. Exciting time to be alive. The Winnamins ain’t done by a long shot. Keep praying Treepers. God Bless!
Or at least appropriately rename it.
OTAN: Organization That Ain’t Nothin’.
It’s not nothing to the Serbs and other victims of The City’s animosities.
NATO is a compromised as is the UN, by the same people, both irredeemable.
Vital elements of the Global Derp State, which MUST be destroyed!!
NATO is much like the Marshall Plan – it has long outlived its purpose, and just needs to be scrapped.
Scrapping NATO will force the EU nations to actually walk the walk of their defense, instead of relying upon the US to be the shield and sword of deterrence against aggression.
PTrump needs to stop talking like NATO must necessarily be part of the military mix in Europe. Those nations already will not pay their end of what the treaty requires. If they will keep up their habit of habitually finding ways to renege on paying their way through, perhaps it’s time for PTrump to simply dissolve NATO instead of trying to find increasingly creative ways to keep that Titanic from sinking.
Europe needs to groom some leaders with common sense, an appreciation for business and history; then dump all their aristocracy and royalty off at the nearest dump. Just about every country is ready and willing to open trade with Russia the way they were doing before our Neo-con fanatics bombed the pipeline. Seeing pictures of The VP and Sec of Defense standing together with their counter-parts in Poland, WITHOUT A SINGLE GREY HAIR SHOWING, told me volumes I’ve been waiting years to hear: WWII IS FINALLY OVER! The scenes are becoming more numerous, but my generation, THE BOOMERS, is done, finished, washed up! Look at Kongress.; geezers! Look at the Joint Chiefs and the DOD Generals;,Geezers! Look at the most of the Billionaires trying to scratch up more change off the streets;:Geezers! My generation of Bushes, Clinton’s, Obama.’s and Bidens did nothing but make things worse; MUCH WORSE! So like in nature, they should be forced to retire and turn things over to the younger generations. They are smarter and have many more years at risk than we do at 2 to 5 years! Let it go!
Well said fellow boomer. My statement above about shifting paradigms is and will continue to change on a global scale.
PDJT has drastically altered the playing field of global trade. Russia is NOT off the table when it comes to trade. Russia is NOT off the table in denuclearization of the planet. How about UBRICS as a new alliance?? 😂😂 you may laugh too. But this is President Trumps ballgame and he owns the whole dang stadium. God Bless the US
If NATO is allowed to survive, I suspect it will only do so with Russia as a proud long overdue member thereof.
The warmonger dynamic would be erased forever in a single instant.
We could lower our contribution to 2% of GDP. It would still be more than the other NATO nations pay, but not enough to let them sit back and relax again. And time to leave our bases behind and only place them in cooperative Russia facing countries to support their military deterant, not as first responders.
“Zelenskyy is directly connected to the narcotics trade”
Best allusion to being a drug addict that I have read.
A yuge surprise, a wealthy workaholic entertainer using coke. I’m shocked, shocked I tell you.
Hunter was in. Up to his nostrils.
They probably partied together. Ick.
NATO needs to be abolished. Like every bureaucracy, once established it takes on a life of its own and lives on long after its original purpose disappears . It’s not the late 1940’s anymore and Russia is in more danger from NATO than NATO is from Russia.
is 35 yrs overdue !!!!!!!
Take the joke of the UN with it too.
United Nations…united against the United States.
“why President Trump is a giant of influence in world leadership, my response was simple: President Trump’s power is bottom up”
There’s more to it than that, Sundance. You missed that whole 2017 World Domination Tour, didn’t you? (No worries, I missed it at the time too, but I’ve since caught up.) Trump has been the (military backed) leader of the entire world since then, and the rest of the world “leaders” know it. The Cabal would not simply “bow down” to someone whose power was nothing more than “bottom up”. They never have before (see JFK, Twin Towers, Pearl Harbour, Titanic, etc). Why would they start now?
Of course, Trump has to have We The People solidly behind him in order to do what he is doing. But he has a lot more than that.
People from other nations have proclaimed their reverence for President Trump. They know we needed to put him back in office even for their own protection.
It’s very humbling to know the whole world is always watching us.
Most of their reverance for PDJT is due to fear of the unknow in him that allows him to play them like a fiddle. “There’s peace in strength” is right. Most world leaders are dictators or wanna bes, they only respect strong leaders. We’ve seen over the last 4 years what they thought of O’Biden.
So tired of hearing about Ukraine and its needs. You’d think that there’s not another country that needs help and support. Can’t name very many leaders in the world but, alas, not only can I say his name but I can spell it. Little man with big pockets.
He’s spent the whole war time grifting the world for money. The only thing that has kept him close to home is the election of PDJT.
PDJT is what we call a straight shooter. The people that don’t like this are liars, cheats and BS artists.
Ukraine was never a NON corrupt country. 🙄
amen to that. I blamed them totally for the trouble during Trump’s 2015 run and during his years in office.
So refreshing to have Hegspeth as Sec Def rather than a retired fat 4 $tar.
The left is going around claiming the US only contributes 3.5% of the NATO budget, so why would President Trump expect the EU to pay 5%.
They are lying once again. The US contributes 16% of the NATO budget.
I want the US to contribute 0 %.
I’m sick of this.
When one factors in how much NATO is dependent upon US technology, manpower, and other resources – it comes out to be much higher than 16%.
does that include the weapons and soldiers? prob not
Samantha Power’s tenure as the head of USAID represents the latest chapter in a controversial career that challenges traditional notions of foreign policy qualifications.
A former journalist without formal diplomatic or military training, she rose quickly through the ranks—first serving as a senior adviser to Barack Obama, then as the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, and ultimately as the leader of an agency responsible for managing billions in taxpayer dollars.
Power faced little resistance in her ascent, unlike others with extensive military and policy backgrounds who often encountered intense scrutiny when appointed by a president from a different political party.
Yet Samantha Power—whose early credentials came from reporting on the Yugoslav War and Rwanda as a freelance journalist—faced no such obstacles as she climbed Washington’s foreign policy ladder.
She had never worn a uniform, nor had she held elected office. But her seamless alignment with the Obama-Clinton-Soros foreign policy wing insulated her from the scrutiny and roadblocks that often block outsiders and conservatives.
Power: A Record of Waste, Corruption, and Ideological Activism.
Under Power’s leadership, USAID became a global funding pipeline for left-wing activism, championing ideological projects that often had little to do with legitimate humanitarian aid.
Some of the most egregious abuses under her watch include:
With Congress, the DOJ, and the Trump administration now scrutinizing USAID’s finances, Power’s leadership—and the decisions made under her watch—require urgent accountability.
How did she rise quickly through the ranks of Washington’s foreign policy despite not achieving a single significant success? Why was she never subjected to the same scrutiny as appointees from the Trump era?
The answer lies in her connections and convictions.
Power was never an outsider—she was an entrenched member of the Obama-Biden foreign policy machine, operating within the same globalist circles that championed disastrous interventions, endless wars, ideological aid initiatives, and backchannel foreign influence campaigns.
The double standard in how the political establishment and mainstream media assess appointees is striking. While individuals like Musk, Hegseth, and Gabbard faced relentless scrutiny, Power’s qualifications were never seriously questioned. As USAID’s financial mismanagement and ideological overreach are scrutinized, Power’s involvement in these scandals mustn’t go unnoticed.
The more I read that USAID list the more I believe that those line item titles are just subterfuge for wher the money really went. None of them align with the values of some of the countries it was supposedly spent in.

My wild guess is that Samantha Power, Christiane Amanpour and Anderson Cooper have come from the same school of journalism and have been since employed by the same Company. In my opinion, of course.
Yes, THE COMPANY often have their operatives masquerade as reporters,…like Bernstien, or was it Woodword?
Exactly!

Tucker interviewed someone reporting Ukraine is selling our provided weapons to Mexican drug cartels.
Ukraine Is Selling American Weapons to Mexican Drug Cartels. Col. Daniel Davis on How to Stop It.
👆 👆 Tucker…..Rumble
Breitbart Texas reports that there are landmines on certain rural highways between different cartel areas. Also reports (less recently) of running gun battles with automatic weapons in the countryside.
Would not surprise me.
It’s been confirmed that there are biolabs and chemical labs in operating in Ukraine, I’m sure that there are drugs being manufactured in some of them..
And, this has been going on for a long time- by the way..
I recall reading years ago that our interest in Ukraine was about protecting all this.. (like protecting the poppy fields all over again- as in new ‘poppy’ in another ‘field’.)
So yes, a whole lot of this war is likely about protecting this drug trade.. and whatever other bad stuff they are doing there.
Didn’t we learn all this a long time ago? (like when are drugs not involved? )
Vickie is worried about what they have going on being learned about and probably *ended* by Putin.. and what might that be Vickie?
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2022/03/10/nula-m10.html
One of the first things Russia did when they crossed the border into Ukraine, was to secure many of the US bioweapons labs in Ukraine.
No one in the US government could protest, because doing so would force the US into acknowledging our gain-of-function research going on there. When Russia came out with the receipts to the research there, the US agencies denied it.
As for the narcotics – likely not a manufacturing point but definitely a logistic hub for the narcotics industry.
Their access to the Black Sea suggests the possibility that China is running the same precursor chemical supply chain scam as they are in Mexico.
This, and many associated crimes against humanity run out of and into Ukraine via sea access, is why Ukraine must be rendered a landlocked rump state of neither import nor menace; of no use to any Derp of any land ever again.
From the River!
Deny the Sea!
Novorossiya will be Free!
How much longer will the CIA exist? Trump offered the CIA a buyout similar to other federal employees recently. Is Trump planning on firing most of the CIA employees?
They’re still trying to start WWIII as we speak. A “Russian drone” fell into the Chernobyl radioactive shield, right after Putin and Trump had talks. Russia denies it. It’s the NORD pipeline all over again. Trump better go after the CIA NOW.
Says Pete Hegseth, “____ is unlikely.”
I have the gift of interpretation: “It ain’t happening.”
In the recent Rogan podcast with guest Mike Benz (how does that guy get away with knowing so much and being able to talk about it? I hope he’s got an excellent security team), Benz discloses some things that he knows “will get me in trouble.”
The CIA’s been running an organized crime syndicate and distributing illegal drugs for decades. The CIA makes billions of dollars every year selling drugs. Mostly throughout Europe.
I would willingly bet the ranch I don’t own that Zelenskyy is up to his eyeballs in the narcotics trade, as backed by the dark devils of the CIA. That’s how they get him to do and say whatever the hell they want. Trump has to know this.
USA needs to come clean with its dirty business around the globe.
Then, they need to deliver the strong message that we will NOT be paying anyone reparations for damages done, and we are willing to go to war with anyone to defend that position.
BUT . . . we will make the criminals in the US government available for extradition to any country who asks.
What happens when committee chairmen style leaders meet a real leader who knows what he’s doing? This.
“The Make America Great Again doctrine is a borderless goal, empowering people to make their own lives great.”
That’s the true message of MAGA, and it is absolute poison to the Globalist/EU/DAVOS/CIA/Save-the-planet-and-screw-the-people-on-it elites! So they are naturally bellyaching about Trump because the want to go on feeding us the same unappetizing gruel that they’ve poisoning We The People with for the last 20+ years!
I listened to Vance’s exceptional speech in Munich and, as importantly, I watched the faces in the crowd as he spoke of the dangers of governments censoring their own people. Most of those faces were hard-line tyrants and gave our VP the tepid applause at his conclusion I would expect from their ilk. Macron and company don’t want to admit it but their days are numbered!
We didn’t just elect an American President in the wee hours of November 6th, we chose the President of the world!
So I’m guessing old Klaus Schwab won’t need to season his filet mignon or truffles at DAVOS’ Shabbat dinner tonight…the salt from his tears will suffice!
I wonder how many are finally waking up to the fact that we are not the good guy most of the time and that it has been that way for awhile now?
Republican Senator so shocked by this that he says Secretary Hegseth meant well but he misspoke:
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14398279/senator-roger-wicker-pete-hegseth.html
And that Senator, no Senator for that matter speaks for the President with any authority.
It has been a decades old quest for The World’s Greatest Deliberative Body™ t0 transfer Executive Branch power to itself, specifically control of foreign policy and the armed forces.
The German minister of defence, Boris Pistorius, was furious about Vance’s comments about Europe, its historic values, immigration mess and more. He thinks he is speaking for all Germans and his EU neighbors. His party, the Social Democatic Party, only has 24% of the seats in the state parliaments and 28% in the federal parliament. Has Germany and other EU members had a referendum about involvement and support for the war in Ukraine it is likely that over half would have said “no” or “nein” or “nyet.” These EU politicians are so full of themselves but there is a new generation that want to return to a patriotism that puts their own countries first.
It checks out but that name ! Boris Pistorius could be a cartoon name to rival Boris Badenov!
President Trump and Elon Musk to gave an interview with The Interruptor Sean Hannity.
Has to be for his audience. Ugh.

I was not aware the CIA and Z were running drugs throughout Europe. Has this been mentioned/hinted at in the past at CTH?
For anyone else sharing my ignorance, I found this seemingly very well-researched article: https://fondfbr.ru/en/articles/ukraine-drug-empire-en/
See new link, below, about Mayor Klitschko.
Trump is right, the U.S. should not have to foot the bill for NATO, supposedly these nations are brought together for mutual protection. However, I believe we should not be so quick to push Germany to re-arm. Roosevelt and Churchill vowed to not let Germany become militarized again because they were the ones who started both world wars, and also declared that there would be a denazification of Germany performed by the allies but, two years later it was given to the Germans to do it themselves. Instead of removing the Nazis they were put back into culture just as before. They had a plan for the future. An ally spy was able to attend a meeting where some of the Nazi high command met with many of the industrialists telling them to make friends with foreign nations and continue making money so that the Nazis, who went underground, could be financed when they were ready to establish the fourth Reich (empire). You can find this report that was written in 1944 summarizing this meeting in France by an ally spy. Amazingly, it wasn’t published until the 1990’s. Pay attention to what is happening in Europe. The greatest producers and dealers in military arms are the Germans. If you think the industrialists never ‘made friends’ in foreign nations, just search for how many German companies are doing business in the U.S. German government today is like it was just before Hitler took power. The German government is looking for a strong leader and they will get one. Germany is not now, and never has been our friend. They were just thrilled that the U.S. taxpayers would rebuild their country.
Well, I won’t buy anything Krup but I do have some very fine, dual speed pieces by HK.
The War To End All Wars was started when a citizen of Serbia (an ally of Russia) whacked a member of the monarchy of Austria-Hungary (an ally of Germany).
They’re getting desperate:

Trump and Putin need to make a joint statement about this.
