Considering that Volodymyr Zelenskyy has been called a “puppet” for various western interests, the reports of Zelenskyy bringing EU leaders along for his meeting with President Trump strikes as a little ironic.
Apparently, the EU is worried that Zelenskyy could screw things up for their Ukraine interests, so handlers or minders are being dispatched along with him just in case. Finnish President Alexander Stubb and NATO General Secretary Mark Rutte are among the names being discussed as chaperones for the Ukraine President.
Additionally, French President Emmanuel Macron and U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer are planning a teleconference Sunday as the “coalition of the willing” brainstorms the best way to avoid a Zelenskyy capitulation to the terms and conditions outlined by President Vladimir Putin.
With BlackRock and J.P.Morgan prepositioned to control the Ukraine Recovery and Reinvestment Bank {LINK}, the coalition of the willing want U.S. troops to backstop the terms of a potential peace agreement. The banks and financial beneficiaries need the insurance provided by the U.S military.
Ultimately, banking interests are the stakeholders in the future, and the U.K, France and German political officials represent the strategists in place to protect the interests of the banks. Not coincidentally, this is classic -albeit inverted- fascism.
If Zelenskyy is indeed the character playing a role complete with costume, then the Ukraine President would appear to be responsible for negotiating something considerably outside his skillset. Hence, the chaperone handlers are needed.
Credit should be given, because the front man Zelenskyy is very good at banging the tin cup in various parliamentary houses, while the actual war fighting is subcontracted to the CIA and western intelligence. However, in this phase a different skillset is required.
The new role may require a costume change for Zelenskyy. The traditional Call of Duty cosplay outfit may not work well given the nature of the meeting in the Oval Office. Perhaps the ‘coalition of the willing’ will decide Sunday whether to require a suit and tie for the White House performance.
There are also reports that President Trump wants to wrap things up quickly, perhaps as early as this week.
Once Zelenskyy agrees to the broad terms outlined during the Trump meeting with Putin, President Trump then wants to put both Putin and Zelenskyy into the peace deal process fast.
Again, with Trump pushing rapid urgency to stop the bloodshed, the EU needs to have their interests represented in DC on Monday.

Surely President Trump understands these dynamics, or his close trusted associates do. Rutte being sent because Trump likes him, anyone else they think can persuade Trump via their smarmy butt kissing approach. I want to believe President Trump isn’t so naive, nor so egocentric as to be fooled by these fools. But I am confident in our champion. He knows full well when the time comes to close the deal. His meeting with Putin set the table. He wisely is moving this at Trump speed. Rapid acceleration to the close is a hallmark of great business leaders.
No more games. Little Z needs a sitter…no surprise. It’s time for the EU and the global cabal to shut up. Accept the terms, or America pulls out everything. This must be the position of President Trump. There can be no more hand wringing, no more pleas and groaning from the Boris Johnson cucks of the world.
Munchkin Z is off to see the wizard.😂
Next marker is whether either party (Z or Putin) take aggressive measures on the battlefield between now and actual discussions. If the Z-man makes the first move in this respect, I would prefer PDJT dispense with all the optics in this. It’s one thing to press the narrative of CIA/Obama/Biden/WEF etc. machinations. It’s another to get it out in the open and begin putting backs to the wall. Different landscape perhaps – but similar outlines to the domestic conspiracies and where those sit now.
👉 In summary, the passage is heavy on emotional rhetoric, name-calling, and false dichotomies, while light on evidence or logical argumentation.
Or it could be your inability to see the clear writing on the wall that this bankers war for others interests is hopefully coming to an end. Cry harder at the real possibility of peace.
If peace is genuinely on the horizon, it could mark the end of a war that has served outside powers more than the populations caught in it.
If peace is genuinely on the horizon, it could mark the end of the war.

“While President Putin and President Zelensky and I meet, I’ve arrange a private White House tour for the rest of you.”
Nope. Make them stand outside in the heat.
He should just ask Representatives Mike McCaul and Mike Turner to attend the meeting instead of EU globalists, as they will both have the exact same viewpoint.
🎯 Very perceptive.

I stand corrected. Thanks, Gip! 👍😊
President Trump TS post.
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115044290751337518
He just post one word: “Bela”
Thoughts? Belarus where Minsk is? Message to the evil ones coming to the Party Monday?
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115044351128754901
Jr. or Sr.?
Sr.
Looked up the meaning of the word Bela. It derives from a Turkic word meaning ‘noble’.
Interesting the wiki dictionary included what it called a ‘metaphysical definition’ meaning the word Bela signifies a ‘swallowing up’ or ‘destruction’ linked to the idea of consuming error by truth and light.
I think Bela will go into the same dictionary as Covfefe.
It is also a Hungarian boy’s name meaning “pure” or “heart”.
Lots of options. Hope today President Trump has a fantastic game of golf.
‘swallowing up’ or ‘destruction’ linked to the idea of consuming error by truth and light.
Would be awesome if that would happen!
Also, regarding Zelensky’s wardrobe choice for tomorrow……. how about the outfit he wore in the music video he performed his hip thrusts to obnoxious techno-music, it was circulating awhile back…..I think he had black leather chaps, no shirt and a spike dog collar and 6 inch black platform shoes on, if I remember correctly. Not sure how much of a limb one has to climb out on to see that Zelensky is a puppet, always has been. After seeing that video, I pretty much added 2 plus 2 and came up with 4. Apparently, for some, they need more evidence.
He is a disgrace to his supposed country. It is unfortunate that the U.S. has been put in a position to deal with him as if he were a legitimate president.
Lugosi?
😅 😉
Does PDJT imply that we are living in an Ed Wood production?
Fleck?
☺️ My grass is blue too.
I think it could be a msg to Putin….we can meet in Belarus.
That would be classic Trump….Minsk Accords are the foundational issue for Russia.
He very shortly after also posted this – the release of 1300 prisoners by Belarus…
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115044463870504970
He also re-truthed this post about Z having to be willing to cede some territory…

President Trump has this.
MAGA / America First isn’t just his motto, it is his sworn duty that he accepted when he took the presidential oath of office …… and he is stinkin’ to it!
The democrats / RINOs and globalists of all stripes and countries be damned.
How can Ukrainian Citizens be united to effect PUBLIC DEMONSTRATIONS against Z and his
“ leadership “ to a) possibly effect his removal and B) convey to the world media that
they want the Peace Agreement (EVEN if /though giving up part of Easternn Ukraine is necessary !) in soo public a fashion that the E.U. Overlords will have to rethink their plans and backpedal in their dreams of NATO on Russian doorsteps and future raping Ukraine of its material/ mineral wealth!
The UKRAINIAN PEOPLE MUST STEP UP AND PROTEST PUBLICLY… even at risk to themselves to shake off the present corrupt despotic Government and leader! They ARE the X FACTOR and piece that needs to moved on this deadly chessboard…
The Nazis in Ukraine have been killing their own people for years, Zelenskyy has shut down elections, opposition parties, the churches have been silenced, the news media and the internet, kidnapping any male for war fodder if they’re able to walk on both legs…but, sure, the Ukrainians will get right on your suggestion to protest!
“Even at (GREAT !) risk to themselves…”
With all the drones and satellites where is all the footage of what is actually happening on the ground. It’s like not much actual filming being done. Why?
There are literally thousands upon thousands of videos coming out of Ukraine and Russia, from the mild to the monstrous. Ranging from drone footage, GOPRO, contour, phone, cctv etc…
We did that in 2014 that resulted in the mess we have now. It was called the “Orange (Color) Revolution” at the cost of $5 billion dollars. After that, it became a DNC Colony with Joe Biden made “Governor General” in fact, if not formally, since Biden could use leverage to get bureaucrats, like Ukrainian prosecutors, fired. Democrat office holders managed to get some of their kids high-paying NO-SHOW jobs with Ukrainian corporations as Board members.
Agree, we should not be getting tied-up in covert “ maiden-type” revolutions.
It must come from them in an ORGANIC fashion. That said , there are ways to push that envelope without U.S. on the ground involvement.
Perhaps I’m nieve but “it’s time” . Maybe The Church has avenues it can utilize…🤔
The Ukrainian government has censored everything that might inform them of the reality of this war. Since most of them speak only Ukrainian and Russian, and perhaps limited English, they are at a loss.
Certainly , the dynamics are not the same, but witness the unexpected breakthrough past the M.Media of The Trump
phenomena . They need a courageous and charismatic leader to give voice the parents and grandparents who’ve lost their youth and husbands , lives , employmen i.e. society!
He’s there but needs a
“ bullhorn “ as it were…
Ratface keeps extending marshal law, so any dissent has been/will be crushed.
It’s what keeps him alive.
This may be Biden’s war, but it will be Trump’s peace. He is being setup as the scapegoat for “losing” Ukraine. He will be castigated for rewarding Putin’s aggression. Trump will be pressured to provide security guarantees. Domestically, Graham and the other hardliners will want to continue funding the war and the rebuilding of Ukraine.
Trumped is being sucked into this quagmire. Zelensky and his Euroweenies will try to torpedo any deal that offers concessions to Russia, which has already won the war.
Yup, for sure, they’ve got him this time ……….. NOT.
The never-trumpsters are on their last breath of their rearguard action from the war they started in 2021.
Losers, everyone of them.
Cue the refrains of “the noose is tightening” and “the walls are closing in” yet again. 😄
The final scenes and music from
“The Sum of All Fears” sooths my soul.
Nothing less is acceptable.
“Nessun Dorma”, Jubal.
Isn’t this about the MInsk Accords and the failure to observe it?
https://soviethistory.msu.edu/1991-2/the-end-of-the-soviet-union/the-end-of-the-soviet-union-texts/minsk-agreement/
1991 NATO agreed with Russia not to expand NATO beyond the Oder River.
This was documented in Minutes of the Meeting with Russia and then classified as TOP SECRET.
Euopean leaders have denied the existence of this document as NATO expanded to Poland + others past the Oder River.
“The document was found in the UK National Archives by Joshua Shifrinson, a political science professor at Boston University in the US. It had been marked “Secret” but was declassified at some point.”
https://euroweeklynews.com/2022/02/20/has-nato-reneged-on-a-1991-agreement-with-russia/
HOPIUM: could Trump use a copy of this document during Monday’s meeting as a hammer to break through the European lies and demands??
It’s ok. The endless war lovers will always do all of that, BUT my President Trump; he’s like Tom Brady, zig zagging, leaping over all obstacle and making a Touchdown. I Know President will stop this war.
Even if for a while. If it starts again, it will not be his fault.
Then, he can tell Americans that Ukraine is where democracy dies–where our money is taken, then divied up among thieves.
It’s where senators go to do dirty things: McCain, McCain’s wife, Graham, and who knows how many more.
TELL AMERICA, POTUS.
zelenskyy the homo whore and the eu cocaine addict’s can all go to hell.. they are soulless just like communist china… 1000 to 1 the jp morgan dude is too…. I pray that these demons are cast in to hell where they belong….
macron and his t are in tow also.🦨
yep that is the connection, the majority of the eu elites are that way too
Z requires a lot of propping up and even then ….
Why do I get the feeling Zelensky will pull another stunt like last time and completely blow up this peace deal.
If he is that stupid, JD will put him in his place, if it’s a public display.
If it’s in a closed session, President Trump will handle him in short order.
If uninvited,they shouldn’t be let off the plane.
They can’t do whatever they want,whenever they want,period.
A weasel in fatigues. My apologies to real actual weasels.
The EU Circus is coming to DC.
PDJT will not be amused by their dancing clown show.
But televise it live, so the entire world can laugh at them.
The quislings care not of the optics..they know their cocaine boy can’t do it on his own.
Did you know that many parents go with their grown children to a job interview?
Applicants for a job also show up in pajamas.
Role-players, all of them. Europe and UK, but I repeat myself, are burying their best and brightest so they can push forward Rothschild-approved, cross-bred, semi-humans. Just look at King Charles…Dear Lord!
I still think dear old Mum stayed on the throne longer than she should have because she wanted to limit the time dopey Chuck had as regent.
I pray that President Trump and his security detail are very alert even to the point of body searching.
Trusting Z and the Eurocreeps, I do not.
https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2025/08/17/european-leaders-say-they-will-join-zelensky-in-washington-meeting-with-trump/
Additional “fun” details. My immediate thought was how PDJT could dis-invite the non-principles. But trying to get in PDJTs head to figure this one out is beyond my limited capabilities.
He could revoke their visas…that would be fun. 😂😂
They’re hoping PDT won’t cut off his allowance if Mommy is there.

Doh…further down this thread is Rubio confirming that ZBoy “along with our European allies” will meet on Monday. Moral of this story, read the whole thread before commenting….back to 2nd cup of coffee…..
Morning Tex. Source: the NYT and their “sources”.
I suppose at some point EU potentates will have to be allowed. But not with the influence they may believe at this moment they have. If they do not understand President Trump and his methods now, well, that’s on them.
The Daily Mail has a headline which says they will “ambush” President Trump.
My day is now complete Ms. Betsy. Tex makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. 😁
So pleased to hear it, dear sir. You’ll always be Tex to me 👍🏻
I think Ursula is there to make sure her puppet Zman will not sign any Peace agreement document.
She is there to make sure that as Z. picks up the pen to sign anything. She will brake his fingers with her stiletto heels if need be.
Actually, zed … wears the stilettos, or at least, he used to.
He and the rest of his acting troupe. He’s likely got them stashed away for “old time’s” sake.
Pictures are out there on the WORLD WIDE WEB.
[RIP: AOL dial up!]
We should refuse to talk about matters of war and peace with anyone NOT a leader OF A COUNTY, not an economic entity.
And definitely not elected by citizens of any country.
Zelensky and Ukrainian associates have been preparing.
Bets,
I’m hoping President Trump hands Zelensky his golf bag.
He’ll hand him something, dear Gipper. History is littered with the remains of “Zelenskys” who thought they were at the centre of the universe but found they were not. Praying that moment for him has finally arrived.
Nine iron, then.
Sounds perfect!!!! 😎👍🏻
Before the disastrous meeting in the Oval Office when he was supposed to sign the “minerals deal” the first time, Zelenskyy had breakfast that morning with a group of Democrats from Congress, which explains why he went to the Oval Office ready to fight over “Security Guarantees.”
How can anyone guarantee the security of a “nation” that can’t afford to pay their bureaucrats’ and public school teachers’ salaries and pensions, along with first responders and health care workers paychecks? How likely is it that Zelenskyy is either being directly paid by our tax money, or indirectly paid by our tax money because all of that is fungible? In other words, could the Ukraine treasury afford to pay Zelenskyy at all if we didn’t pay the bulk of the bureaucracy and the other public servants’ compensation packages. Back in 2023, NEWSWEEK reported that all of that compensation, plus an awful lot more, was going to keep going to Ukraine even if US government workers were laid off in a pending government shutdown ginned up by Schumer again.
How can that place be a nation when their government workers are paid by another nation? This is ridiculous. This is a poorly planned proxy war, using this cardboard cut-out country as a proxy against Putin in an attempt to get Vladimir “regime changed.” It isn’t working. Putin has to know about it even if most Americans do not know their taxes are going to a synthetic country called Ukraine, or it would out of business for being unable to finance any kind of government. How do we pretend to negotiate in good faith when we know this character, supposedly running Ukraine, is not only our puppet, but we directly or indirectly pay his salary and pension contributions? No wonder Putin looks like he can hardly keep from laughing.
The Intelligence Cabal come off as Keystone Kops many a time.
The solution is so simple .. Cut the Gordian Knot.
Pull the $$$ Plug, and the EU USSA Rats go down the drain.
It’s All Funny Bankster “money” anyway.

Si vis pacem para bellum
Zelensky wants a ceasefire first. He doesn’t want a peace deal. He wouldn’t need his EU stooges with if he didn’t.
Because a ceasefire would allow Z-Bag to kill more Ukrainians to blame Russia.
IMO: This war has been facilitated by the euroweenies, cia, USA. I think, although not an expert, the arrogance of the NATO bunch is problematic.
The punk must meet with Trump alone. Ukraine is NOT part of NATO and should never be so. It it blatantly obvious, IMO, that NATO is steering the punk. This is one of the reasons Putin has taken the land he has. NO euroweenies in the room. I don’t care where they sit in DC.
Trump can handle this. It will be the most advantageous to both parties, USA, then NATO. NATO wants a boogyman (Putin), they want USA to be responsible for their idiocy and greed. The punk wants to continue his corruption. I think Russia wants peace + their spoils. I know Trump wants peace. NATO is trying to blow it all up while “looking” like caring partners.
MR also said that PDJT requested that Europeans be present at the meeting tomorrow.
Admin, just curious as to why my comment is awaiting approval. 😊
Marco Rubio also had an good interview with Maria Bartirom on Sunday Morning Futures ….
.@SecRubio: “We may very well reach a point where everyone concludes no peace is going to happen here, we’re going to have to do more sanctions — but when you do that, you are basically walking away from any prospect of a negotiated settlement.”
.@SecRubio: “We never said there was going to be a deal coming out of the meeting because the Ukrainians are not there. This is a war between two countries; it’s not America… We made progress in narrowing down the issue set.”
.@SecRubio: “You can’t have a deal between two warring factions unless both sides agree to give up something and both sides agree that the other side gets something… Ultimately, where this should lead is to a meeting between the three leaders.”
.@SecRubio: “Putin’s not going to meet with Macron, he’s not going to meet with the UK… There’s only one leader in the world that has any chance of bringing these two sides together… that’s President Trump, and you forfeit that role the minute you put additional sanctions on.”
.@SecRubio previews tomorrow’s White House meeting with President Zelensky and other European leaders: “A lot of it will be centered around what are the kinds of security guarantees that Ukraine is looking for.”
I really like this Rubio.
Martha Radish… Raddatz is in need of serious facial work. 😬 She is close to being Lisa Murkowski’s doppelganger.
That made cringe and laugh at the same time.
Glad to be of service, sir. 👍😁
Over 18% of the EU’s Natural gas is still being supplied by Russia, and has been throughout the entire war!
Dear God I pray Trump is ready to bring the hammer down on these delusional and deranged hypocrites who have so much blood on their hands!
It would have been a lot more if Putin hadn’t bombed his own pipeline!
Some people just can’t help shooting themselves in the foot.
USSA DemocRats are Bolsheviks, EU NATO NeoCons are Neo Nazis,
All Despicable Sycophants …. War is Their Game.
That is a new one on me………Pretty sure it wasn’t Putin.
🕊️
We don’t need to provide security guarantees for Backrock and JP Morgan. FUBAR!!!
Yep, I’m quite sure that was No.1 on the President’s list.
Just because they may be coming does not necessarily mean they have seats at the table wih a POTUS Trump and Zelensky one on one meeting. Bottom line, don’t under estimate POTUS Trump. The EU cheerleaders aren’t the brightest bulbs in the box.
The presence of the others, if they do show up on Monday, really will muddy up the waters because it will convince the world that the ancient hatreds and wars of Great Britain, France and Germany have not learned one thing from either of the previous two world wars –
and President Trump would be right to simply say ‘I can see there is no way forward for peace between Russia and Ukraine as long as those three nations continue to bully the rest of Europe on how things should be’ and simply wash our nation’s hands of the whole attempt and say ‘sorry Vlad, but I did my best’ and call it a day,
pull our military bases out of Europe and tell those three nations that have bullied the rest of Europe from time immemorial that they are on their own.
I’d be fine with that.
Dang; this post dampened that little hopium I’ve been quietly nurturing back down to the bare soil it was sprouting up from. Just came in from weeding this summer’s veggie garden; didn’t expect to have to pull that pretty little hopium out of the ground so fast, thought for sure let’s see what Monday brings and then decide if it was a little flower asking for more water or just another weed to be pulled.
If any other nation leaders show up, uninvited, truly do hope that the White House refuses to allow those leaders entry until the one-on-one with Zelensky is completed. If Zelensky refuses to meet without his wing men then that is pure sunlight from a VSG-PDJT letting others expose their true selves to the entire world just by being himself. That’s a magic wand gift.
As Talleyrand said two centuries ago, “They have learned nothing and have forgotten nothing”.
Have FAITH Bessie. I know you do. 🙏
Arrest them all.
Hold them in quarantine until they produce their COVID vaccination certificates.
No Euros should get to play. Z is the only actor and it the Ukrainians don’t like that, replace him.
Rubio: [European Leaders] are not coming to keep Zelenkyy from being bullied.
Brennan: What about the Oval Office meeting where Zelenskyy—
Rubio: Do you know how many meetings we have had since then?
Brennan: I was in Alaska watching the one with Putin where a red carpet was rolled out —
Brennan: Putin says the root causes of the conflict have to be resolved… Isn’t the root cause the fact that Russia invaded in the first place?
Rubio: Well, ultimately, yeah. What he means by root causes is a long historical complaints… The bottom line, we are not going to focus on that stuff. We focus on this: Will they stop fighting or not and what it takes to stop the fighting
Rubio “We are not going to focus on that stuff” because that Involves US the Cia Johnny McShame, Vicious Nuland, my Stateless Dept. and the U$$A Bankster-NWO Empire. Which is Far Above my pay grade as the Rube Rubio.
Sometimes confession is good for the soul.
Brennan: If Putin is going to be offered land that he has not seized yet.. doesn’t this set a dangerous precedent that the US now accepts that it is okay to seize land by force?
Rubio: Putin’s already seized land by force. And that of itself is not a positive precedent.
Brennan: Are you demanding a withdrawal?
OMG !!! Seizing Land by Force !!! My panties are in a twist, It’s just ‘Unheard Of” on Planet Earth,
I know, Let’s start WW3 to get it back and everything will be betterer….
Sometimes you just have to Shear the Sheep or Kill the Sheeples.
“No JustUs, No Peace”
Perhaps, Kill the Sheep, or Shear the Sheeples.
Earth Games We All Enjoy,
Just when I think Maggie’s producers could not be more insufferable, they prove me wrong. 🙄
Brennan: Did you hear anything from Vladimir Putin that indicated he is willing to make a single concession?
Rubio: There are some changes that I think are possible. I think there is some concepts discussed that could potentially lead to something.
Judging from the cast of characters and some of the statements being made in advance, I’m not very optimistic about the prospects of a sane agreement being made tomorrow.
Martin Armstrong’s “computer” is giving it a 100% chance of an expanded war in 2026. FWIW.
Doesn’t Sundance’s tank soldier always say “It’s going to get a whole lot worse”?
Brennan: The president told those European leaders last week he wanted a ceasefire. He went on television and said he would walk out of the meeting if Putin didn’t agree to one, he said there would be severe consequences if he didn’t agree to one. He spent three hours talking to Putin and he did not get one.
Rubio: Our goal is not to stage only production for the world to say how dramatic, he walked out.
Better answer? “The President wanted a ceasefire. But after talking to President Putin, it was possible to get a final peace agreement instead of a temporary ceasefire. Negotiations work that way, Margaret. Come in with expectations, and sometimes leave with even better possibilities.”
It has become crystal clear that the Ukraine war, from day one, is nothing more than a money-making and money laundering business, the continuation of which directly benefits the financial interests of world banks, the WEF globalists, the so-called European and NATO leaders, the corrupt-as-hell Ukrainian government, the CIA, MI6 and Mossad, the military industrial complex, and the corrupt-as-hell United States congressional warmongers such as Graham and Blumenthal and everyone else who has continually voted to send billions of US dollars to Ukraine.
I’m sick and tired of the phrase “security gaurantees.” Simply translated, it means “keep sending us more money.”
Trump has now positioned himself to expose it all to the American people and the world. I believe that is the game theory under which he is currently working. When the entities listed above soon reject outright the perfectly reasonable peace deal that Trump and Putin will lay on the table, we will all see the abject evil that the power-mad, money-grubbing control freaks exude from every pore of their collective body.
I cannot believe how monumentally stupid, greedy and despicable are the current leaders of the world. God help humanity.
“sick and tired of the phrase “security gaurantees.” Simply translated, it means “keep sending us more money.”
I likewise am wary of the phrase “security guarantees”. It makes me think that the same garbage we have been dealing with (us funding Ukraine for everything) will continue. However I trust President Trump on all of this.
The EU tagging along could be to anticipate Trump cornering VZ with the conditions of peace deal proposed in 2022. I am sure Putin filled Trump in with all the details of talks held with Ukraine. Trump will be going in to that meeting like a prosecutor who has all the evidence, thereby leaving VZ with no choice but to have his lawyers present.
European leaders have been sabotaging peace in Ukraine from the beginning. This is not a sign that peace will happen. It is a showdown. If Trump comes out on top, Europe will be crushed politically. This is the true battle for peace. Zelenski has been emboldened by his European support in the same way that European recognition of Gaza as a state emboldened Hamas and caused the collapse of the cease fire talks a couple of weeks ago. The true warmongers are the European leaders.
“It is a showdown.”
This is exactly what I explained to my husband this a.m. before I read anything online. You are 100% correct and for the reasons stated. Great post.
They follow the Evil One who seeks to steal, kill and destroy.
🎯, Sophie!
Hopefully Zman’s handlers will be left riding their bicycles in circles at the Whitehouse gate.
Monday morning at the White House!
I would imagine that the EU leaders are feeling very much like Kamala’s campaign handlers this very moment. Knowing their Zelensky dufus doesn’t even belong in the same room with powerful, principled, and deadly serious wolverines.
No demands, no per-approved questions or editing afterwards. Zelensky has always been the weak spot in this whole Ukraine ordeal. Trump has led them all right to having their weakest player being center stage.
Masterful.
President Trump should have someone very nice and polite meet Z’s chaperone handlers at the White House gates and thank them for coming to DC, which is so much safer now for tourists, wish them well on their tour of the capital, and then slam the gates shut on them. No admittance. When the others call in for their hoped-for teleconference, there should be some similar appropriate response, but no getting through otherwise.
As for BlackRock and J.P.Morgan wanting some sort of insurance provided by U.S military boots on the ground, the response should be that since they have fantastic amounts of money available, why don’t they rent all the security they think they need? Maybe the otherwise useless and idle European militaries have some people available for them?
An Oxymoronsky Moment: Zelenskyy will bring EU leaders for moral support.
I think this might be important to review before the important meeting at the White House on 08/18/2025 between President Trump and Zelensky. Oh what a glorious USA flyover it was on the red carpet in Alaska on 08/15/2025.
https://ua.usembassy.gov/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-secures-agreement-to-establish-united-states-ukraine-reconstruction-investment-fund/
Couldn’t President Trump refuse anyone entry to the discussion besides Z-boy?
Unless Z is out ..the usa not one more dime….not one more bullet…the blowback on trump.will be like nothing we have ever seen…..but…the Ukrainian people are done with war…and Z ..and once gone whoever takes his place will sign a peace deal in 24 hours!
Strange dynamics. Ukraine is not a member of the EU or NATO but appears to be governed by both with Zelensky as the puppet president. That said the EU and NATO have now assumed full responsibility for Ukraine including funding , etc., and the consequences of their actions. If the collective “Ukraine Committee” botches the peace effort they own the consequences and POTUS Trump (the US) can totally walk away with no financial commitment and tell the group of the willing they own it go fund it.
