Keep in mind the background issue of Germany supplying Ukraine with weapons and material to keep fighting Russia, while the Merz administration triggers policy to force increased German military troop levels.
Facing crushingly high increases in energy costs, last Monday in Marsberg, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz criticized the U.S. approach to Iran, saying Washington was being “humiliated by the Iranian leadership” and demanding the conflict end “as quickly as possible.”
Germany is facing a perfect storm of economic consequences following their decision to chase the climate change agenda (Build Back Better) and eliminate their coal and nuclear power plants. Combine the German/EU policy to stop purchasing cheap LNG and oil from Russia, in addition to skyrocketing energy costs from oil/gas flows from the Middle East, and the outcome is rising manufacturing costs leading to massive layoffs.
The German industrial economy is the heart of the EU economy, and President Trump is now hitting them both right where it hurts.
Today two announcements hit an already vulnerable Germany directly. The first is: “The Secretary of War has ordered the withdrawal of approximately 5,000 troops from Germany,” chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell told Fox News Digital. “This decision follows a thorough review of the Department’s force posture in Europe and is in recognition of theater requirements and conditions on the ground.” {source}
The second announcement is even more brutal for Chancellor Merz:
[SOURCE]
While the EU auto tariffs do not mention Germany specifically, it is the German auto industry (BMW, Volkswagen, Mercedes, Porsche, Audi) that will be impacted the most. A 25% tariff on German vehicles destined to the USA will severely hurt the German auto industry. This is a massive hit to their already weakened position.
Chancellor Friedrich Merz is already facing serious political issues within Germany as the economy continues to contract. The political opposition parties are on the rise and Merz is in a very precarious position. President Trump is exploiting this vulnerability by apply further economic pressure on Germany.
One of the outcomes of this pressure in combination with the internal friction Merz is facing, will be a demand by the German people to stop providing support for Ukraine and focus time, effort and energy on getting the structural economy back on solid footing. This can have an ancillary benefit to President Trump as he seeks to have Ukraine come to the negotiating table with Russia to end the conflict.
There are multiple facets within this geopolitical positioning, and it is worth watching it play out closely.
Thanks, Sundance. Happy to see the pressure being applied. Perhaps the German Citizenry will oust these dopes. The elites never suffer what they bring down on the working class in their country.
Wait, so if the EUnuchs have to stop feeding the corrupt kickback cash scams in Ukraine, the piano player Zee might have to face reality and end the losing battle there?
What I don’t get is Ukraine is chock full of Nazi’s. All the important government leadership positions are Nazi and a large part of the military is Nazi. Are Germans pro-nazi again?
Always were.
Not so! Stationed in Bavaria during the 80’s at Flint Kassern, Bad Tolz. While I was there we had great relations with the people. They arrested several people that were having secret Nazi meetings in town. A few years after I left the Kasserne, the Quadrangle which had been built as an SS Officers training school during the war was torn down. All they left was the front gate with its two towers. They did that despite the fact the US had put a lot of money into maintaining it in the last few years.
That goodwill evaporated in the 90’s. Training on a German chem/bio vehicle (Fox). Soldiers and marines were told to wear civies off base. Sister was visiting her husband and spoke fluent German (grandparents were from Stuttgart) told me she’s not likely to return.
Yep, in WWII Ukrainians were some of the most enthusiastic SS Einsatzgruppen volunteers when it came to murdering Jewish men, women, and children with belt-fed machine guns. They murdered hundreds of thousands of Jews and packed the corpses into mass graves like sardines in a can.
And you didn’t have to twist the arms of Ukrainians to staff the concentration camps, from top leadership to the gatekeepers. The Nazi runs deep in Ukraine.
Perhaps perhaps the hallowed 6 million has been throughly investigated And found to be about 1.4 million Jews killed only because they were Jews. 40 million people, military and civilian died during WW2 . I.4 million Jews is a teeny tiny percentage. Two reasons I am not and never will be a conservative.
Israel Israel Israel and importation of not White cheap foreign race replacement workers.
Check out what communists Jews did during the 1920s and 30s to Ukrainian Christians. Hint you won’t find the information in any town library
Or check out the names of the lawyers on the anti White side of the school desegregation and affirmative action DEI lawsuits . Or even the lawyers who defended OJ. To learn the names of the lawyers who convinced judges to desegregate public schools discriminate against White Mn in college admissions contracts and jobs just find the lawsuits on the internet.even Google not special legal sites.
On the first page top left are the names of all the law firms and lawyers Just read the names. In those big lawsuits the list of law firms and attorneys can go on for pages and pages. Read the names.
Israel and cheap non white foreign workers. No White American, especially a man should be a conservative.
Conservatives care about just two things. Job replacement by not White foreigners and your taxes supporting the welfare state of Israel. Microsoft and Silicon Valley were created by American White men. Just one generation of White American men. By 1983 the great replacement was on. And has never stopped
Banderites is better term. Followers of Stepan Bandera from 1940. They seemed to get a pass at end of WW2 and were not prosecuted like the German Nazis. Many went to Canada.

Historical, chronological, sourced, verifiable facts.
Adults have brains and free will.
Ukraine has a history of being at the center of Global economic evil for over a thousand years, and is a central figure in today’s globalist cabal.
As we also know, many in the Nazi leadership were imported here under Operation Paperclip.
The movie The Odessa File is interesting, depicting how, following WWII (Not eleven!) , Nazi holdovers were taking care of their ghoulish party by creating new passports and identities. Great portrayal by Jon Voight in this 1974 film.
The Nazi’s lost to the Soviets in WW Eleven – going back to Russia to give it another try..
No. NAZI = Nationalist Socialist (Fascist totalitarian) as defined by Hitler’s and Ukraine’s 21st century model. This is a top-strong Leftwing style of government, ideologically preceding Communism and simple dictatorship and monarchy. Often errantly referred to as Far Rightwing, Nazism’s reliance upon an all-powerful central government puts it on the left-hand side of the ideological spectrum.
While its painfully obvious that the Germans are and have been socialist in their politics, IMHO they have long dropped the nationalist fervor they once had and evolved into EUnuchs, as another Treeper so aptly nicknamed them.
Obviously this does NOT apply to a significant percentage of native Germans, as so many (sadly in a minority) are freedom-loving independent-minded capitalists.
“Often errantly referred to as Far Rightwing, Nazism’s reliance upon an all-powerful central government puts it on the left-hand side of the ideological spectrum.”
This is correct, and is deliberately ignored as well as propagandized as the opposite by Gubmint Schools, Politicians, and the MSM.
Oh yes.
Indeed. Fascism and Communism are leftist ideologies.
National Socialist German Workers’ Party.
It’s in the name
EUnuchs….hahahaha I love that !!👍🏻
1st time seein’ it….and i’m pretty frickin OLD….😝
“Elections” worldwide are compromised. I don’t understand why anyone puts ANY amount of hopium into changing things with their vote.
Try not voting and see what results you get!
If we, MAGA, had not voted, Donald J. Trump would no have been elected three times!
Your position, though a common refrain, is falacious.
First sign of a RolCon is trying to influence people not to vote.
This is why the airways need to be flooded with the same type of ad recently appearing on TV that shows where L.A. Mayor Bass lives as opposed to where her opponent lives.
So true!!!
“The elites never suffer what they bring down on the working class in their country.”
True that they often don’t suffer exactly what they impose on the working class. However, if history is any guide, we should recall a little device sometimes called “the Guillotine”. While the working class might have been made to suffer in poverty, the elites have sometimes lost their heads.
A more likely outcome would be the * middle easterners * will oust the Germans out of Germany.
Chancellor Merz will likely be replaced by Chancellor Mow-Ham-Ed.
Worth watching? Heck yes.
This is real history being made right in front of us, and it is gooood history.
We are blessed.
We are not only watching history being made. We are actively participating.
One could argue that speeding up the demise of a nation like Germany — slowly committing willing national suicide — is in fact an act of compassion.
I’m sure that The GloboHomo Deep State Democrat-Communist Left feels the same about America …
“One could argue that speeding up the demise of a nation like Germany — slowly committing willing national suicide — is in fact an act of compassion.”
The demise of Germany is not good for the German people, or for the rest of the free world. We all are better off when there is a peaceful and productive Germany blessing the world with its manufacturing expertise. We don’t need to destroy them, just help them see the errors in their ways. And how do we (Trump) do that? Well, as that old expression goes: “When you’ve got ’em by the balls, their hearts and minds will soon follow”…………
“The greatest kindness one can render to any man consists in leading him from error to truth.”
~Thomas Aquinas
The pendulum is in motion…
Great quote Betsy…but, also consider this: “Reasoning will never make a Man correct an ill Opinion, which by Reasoning he never acquired: For in the Course of Things, Men always grow vicious before they become Unbelievers.” [Jonathan Swift, A Letter to a Young Man lately enter’d into Holy Orders]. I think Trump understands this; it explains why he’s using economics and not reasoning to change Euro behaviors if not actually correcting their ill-opinions.
I believe he has seen enough, tried enough reasoning, failed to get through the wall which they’ve constructed for their own global elitists purposes (because they’ve always, to a man and woman, despised the Euro proles and consider them basically detritus), and so uses the only devastating “currency” which they understand. Even his stalwart, well spoken messenger…Rubio…has been met with their obstreporous refusal to reason in the best interests of their own nations.
Why?
Because they are in no way interested in making the lives of their citizenry better or their individual nations sovereign and prosperous….so wedded to their decades long dream of ultimate power in the New World Order are they.
Further, these despots continue to view President Trump as a brash, uncouth crasher and have since 2017. As the Brits say, his face doesn’t fit. Their minds are closed, locked, and bolted. Reasoning is useless. Best to appeal to their lowest common denominator to get their attention.
Excellent quotation.
I agree with you, DD…completely.
That would be no different than getting democrats in this country to see the errors of Their ways……
Just Not gonna happen.
It appears that the Demon-o-rat Communists are determined to destroy the USA. Looking into the future, they appear to believe that they will then have their own communist leadership in place, but they ignore the fact that there will be nothing left. I work with several extreme leftist Marxists and they are working to destroy the company and anyone who disagrees with them, using Alinsky tactics. This cancer from Satan the devil is spreading to the hometown level, and is completely destructive to any and all. American colleges and Universities are the Marxist indoctrination incubators.
What’s needed is the demise of their so-called current “government of EUnuchs” (love that), not the nation itself.
The German people have never stood up to any evil. I have no sympathy for them.
It is not “Germany” for whom the US is setting limits (on our support – dollars and military). It is the global-elite control destroying not only the German economy but “white” Germans, or German citizens. They intend to colonize the world. Their methods are terror, crime, and poverty, imo, with radical islam as one of their agents.
Thanks, President Trump. And thanks Sundance for underlining both our national-security interests as well as old-fashioned international “balance of power”. Good-bye elitists.
Geopolitical Euthanasia.
Gotta love how Merz sucks up to President Trump in Oval Office press briefings and our VSG just lets it play out.
He sucked up then went back to Germany and dissed Pres Trump
Consequences.
I saw both of these news items today and knew they were interconnected, thanks in no small part to my reading here.
Which way, German man?
I don’t read the Wall St Journal, but it’s safe to assume that anything radical that Trump is doing to help ordinary Americans in the long run, would equally piss of both the WSJ and the Chamber of Commerce.
The word “shrinkage” from the Seinfeld sitcom came to mind. Merz and any other European country that wants to support Ukraine have the freedom to do so. The same with the type of energy they choose to employ. But it is ludicrous for any county, especially the United States to subsidize what anyone other country chooses to do. For me at least, its the first time I’ve ever experienced a President saying “America First.”
And as subtle as a brick through a window **I love President Donald J. Trump**, he just told Merz he will not support him. Removing 5K troops will REALLY hurt the economies of the surrounds. Not looking good for Merz. And yes, I love the picture of Trump with the whole world in his hands.
Merz [Costanza]: “I was in the pool!”
Wasn’t it the shower?
No, it was the pool. “The Hamptons” episode.
The 5,000 troops don’t include the families of these troops. Assuming that each troop member has one spouse and one child then that amounts to 15,000 people who will be departing Germany and headed somewhere else.
Also, family members of these people will no longer have to travel to Germany to visit them. That is even more Euros not being spent in Germany.
This also affects the rest of Europe because these people will not be spending money in the greater European markets while vacationing.
Good.
So Germany being the main player in the EUSSR, when that go we can expect some relief from our self imposed penance of the British Marxist state.
I am still in a state of shock at your President playing footsie with our village idiot last week.
Of course I realise President Trump is a master showman/magician and we must wait and see what his motives are.
One of the best comedy in years was watching the Demoncrats giving a king a standing ovation.
Democrats will give any two bit tyrant, king or other, their undying love and affection, provided that the tyrant is a Marxist.
Did Charles walk by any No Kings protesters? Doubtful. The whole No Kings or Occupy Wall Street or BLM or any of the manufactured Marxist “protests” is to sow division and undermine the target (i.e. the USA). The dumber the saying the better it is. King Charles has shown Marxist leanings, so he gets a standing ovation from their tribe.
President Trump has stated that Charles has been a friend even before he became president so it might not be all show.
Even if you’re not mathematically inclined just remember this simple formula. It explains everything about the Demoncrats.
Demoncrats = Hypocrites + ignorance + stupidity
Don’t forget arrogance + duplicitous, agreed !?
nothing can top “ WW eleven “ by that simpleton from Somalia!
Germany only has three more years of Trump to look forward to.
OMG, they are going to be so kaput!
Winning!
The EU is hurting for certain – all of it of their own doing…
Of course, to the nuts running the asylum the answer is always more taxation. It’s the equivalent of “the beatings will continue until moral improves.”
Don’t forget immigration policies, though I believe they’ve been attempting to correct the damage that has already been done.
There ya are Betsy!
They can’t correct, MOB. The damage is done and permanent. Not only to Germany but to Western/Christian civilization and tradition…and to humanity…itself.
…the picture worth a thousand words!
It is difficult to have sympathy for arrogant people with self inflicted injuries. When you told them this would happen.
They’ll just fine the likes of Elon Musk, etc.
In a nutshell:
With the decision of the CDU/CSU not to form a coalition or even work together with the AfD (firewall), Herr Merz is dependent on the grace of SPD. It is expected that after next election, CDU/CSU need more of the left-wing parties to reign, their power will gain, despite AfD’s success.
Germany isn’t likely to change course in its mad rush towards cultural and economic suicide. Nor is Britain. Too many voters in each of those two nations have lost all sense of their national identity, enough for coalitions of center-left and green parties to keep control of their governments in spite of the rise of center-right parties such as AfD and Reform.
Frau Merkel joined the CDU in the confusion of reunification for opportunistic reasons and pursued a SPD/Green policy that offended patriots. Thanks to her earlier electoral successes, there were no internal resistances, which is why a departure has now become impossible due to the lack of self-chosen alternatives. AfD will gain, but has lack of power.
I don’t get why these weak European leaders can’t keep their mouths shut.
TDS has strange effects on people. They can’t help themselves.
Ivermectin – very broad-spectrum; used for many parasitic worms and some external parasites like scabies and lice.
Albendazole – commonly used for intestinal worms (roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms).
Mebendazole – similar to albendazole; often used for pinworms and other common intestinal worms.
Metronidazole – effective against protozoa like Giardia and Entamoeba (not worms).
Praziquantel – particularly strong against tapeworms and flukes.
Trumpreamszemazoles – particularly strong against parasitic politicians and their voters the world over

Ha!!!!! The ultimate schadenfreude, beloved brother 😂💕👍🏻
Yes. A nice American dessert that originated in Texas. 😏
But you understood the reference, which was the point. Excellent 😁
(Gotta do something with all our pecans 😎)
Didn’t know that, probably was started right round the neighborhood here in Fredericksburg.
Thought of that immediately. Would have been proper. Dallas actually.
‘Keep in mind the background issue of Germany supplying Ukraine with weapons and material to keep fighting Russia, while the Merz administration triggers policy to force increased German military troop levels.‘
Keep in mind that many point out it was the US that drove NATO expansion to Russia’s border and started manipulating and arming Ukraine against Russia, triggering the war – and then drove it with military/intel support.
‘ Germany is facing a perfect storm of economic consequences following their decision to chase the climate change agenda (Build Back Better) and eliminate their coal and nuclear power plants. ‘
‘ There are multiple facets within this geopolitical positioning, and it is worth watching it play out closely. ‘
But not so closely that you can’t see the forest for the trees.
The forest:
The EU is an adjunct to the US in the hemispherical pole opposing China’s rise to global dominance.
The EU is evidently being “managed down” along with the US as China rises, and Germany’s strength means it is a strategic target for extra subversions.
The climate canard was apparently “nudged” into mass hysteria as part of this “managed decline” aimed at the West. (China is playing a part in the machinations by flooding the world with cheap EVs, which undermine the Western automotive industry already struggling from massive mis-investment driven by EV regulatory coercions and subsidies now being withdrawn. This takes on extra significance when you realize that the automotive industry is one of the last bastions of Western industry still going strong.)
Along with multiculturalism and identity class Marxism with mass immigration flooding, in both the EU and US. Notice how the problems from this are driving the censorship/surveillance state in the EU?
Ukraine serves multiple ends including exacerbating the energy problem for Germany (remember Nordstream?) and draining resources “to defend against Russia”.
The forest is a longer term global shift with multiple aspects all pointing to a common future state. Germany’s struggles all fit in this big picture.
No disagreement, but the trees do matter also do they not?
Viewing the trees in the context of the forest is key.
This is the missing perspective in nearly all the information flooding us about the trees.
Information warfare is based on the fact that most information about events cannot be fully censored, so operators use information to manipulate by various means. One tactic is focusing attention on the trees only so people lose sight of the forest.
This is much easier to do in the US, where most are functional illiterates with a very short attention span, preoccupied with the shallow demands and pursuits of mainstream America.
Nice follow-up, digesting now.
Your last statement hit me like a rock because of its truthfulness. One great example is the CHYNA/CIA virus aka “The Coof” which showed the utter ignorance of the American public.
It also made me think about this, “I wonder what the average age of a Treeper here is?” It would be interesting to see how many are in certain age brackets. I’m in the 65-70….just barely. (69yo).
I thought with age came wisdom but judging by the age of these anti-ICE and No KIngs stunts it appears that may not be true.
sometimes age comes alone
The longer you live, the more time you have to learn but only if you open up your mind. Sadly, most don’t. I am 87 so I have seen more than most and I have some doubt that the country will survive. My message for anyone with a brain. Get out of the cities.
Sage advice, Dick.
We would have had Chinese EV’s if Kamala and Tim had been installed.
Those with a loner memory will know that the American taxpayers rebuilt Germany and freed the East from communism.
Those of us of a certain vintage , will maybe remember the daughter of an American soldier called Petra Kelly.
On this side of the Atlantic she is more notorious that Carson woman who got DDT banned.
She started all the pro communist and green crap in Gullible Germany which of course fitted neatly with the Socialist Nazi earth worship horse shit.
There is good reason to believe that the next election in Germany will return a large number of Green/Nazi/Marxist politicians
So far from ‘learning’ any lessons they will only dive deeper into the abbess – is that a nun?
“Rumficken und rausfinden!”
translation: FAFO
Germany’s government made the STUPID decision to buy their energy from sources outside the country rather than efficiently producing it themselves due to “Climate Change” & “Green Energy” policies. German citizens elected the dunces who did this to them for decades!!! The consequences are catastrophic to Germans & have destroyed their economy. Yet they dare to criticize us? Go pound sand with the Iranians, you absolute morons!
It all boils down to propaganda and the globalist elites have worked that angle to a tee.
They all learned from Goebbels.
I question if countries like Germany have free elections, or do they have the same validity as ours.
Can no longer respect the election process until we achieve single day voting and paper ballots.
My question continues to be “These nation states? Are they universally too stupid or too proud to admit defeat or is it the ones who control them who require that the fight go on hoping that their propaganda motivated useful idiots may be successful in their endeavors?”
Lots of savings to be had by pulling out all of our troops from Germany. They are suicidal anyway.
There are 38,000 American troops in Germany. We need to be talking 15,000 troops pulled.
We can hope this is just the first installment of a withdrawal if Germany continues in this behavior.
I see the parallels when PDJT first charges 10% tariffs and sees if the bad behavior ceases. When it doesn’t then the tariffs increase some more. Again and again.
This 5,000 is similar to the 10% tariff. I am sure that he knows that they will dig in and continue to fight him. Then the number will go up.
As a bonus, every country who enjoys the benefits of American troops protecting their societies is also watching. If they were intelligent then they should have their calculators out trying to do a cost/benefit calculation on how long they can continue to spit it the direction of the USA.
No if’s.
IMHO, this is great news. We have had our troops stationed in Germany since WW II in an effort to tamp down Germany’s unseemly habit of starting world wide wars. High time the Europeans took on that responsibility themselves. We bailed them out in WWI. We bailed them out in WW2. We helped rebuild the European continent (Marshal Plan). We had troops strategically placed throughout Europe during the Cold War to protect them. Meanwhile, they refused to pay their required 2% of GDP for the cost of running NATO. We The People did that on their behalf while they used their wealth to pour lavish benefits onto their citizens. Well past time for a reality check.
Germany did not start WW1. That’s a falsehood, a misunderstanding of history.
The initial combatants of the Great War were Austria – Hungary and Serbia.
When the U.S. has a military, or otherwise, (quick, or extended) endeavor across the Atlantic ocean,
often times the occasional ill, or injured, get treated a u.s. hospital in…. Germany.
There are also other duties of the u.s. military located there – a lot of which is confidential.
imho
There are going to be 36,436 current – 5,000 moved elsewhere = 31,436 active-duty U.S. military personnel stationed in Germany.
imho
The Germans should confiscate all of Merkel’s assets as reparations for her malfeasance.
“President Trump is exploiting this vulnerability by apply further economic pressure on Germany”
(Dang, this messes up my parsing of every word SD writes..)
The only thing that I can frankly say to Europeans like Merz is this: “You are doing this to yourself, voluntarily. But you are taking your country down with you.” Pride goeth before the fall.
Why don’t you do the sensible thing and “Make Germany Great Again?” Wow! What a concept!! 🤡
The German people – your people – do not deserve to continue to suffer under the consequences of incompetence and sheer folly. If you can’t lead them anymore, then graciously step aside. (They will probably be gracious to you, being so very glad to see you go.)
If you can’t – or, won’t – make your own country “Great Again,” then your people deserve to be led by people who will. If you are not that person, get out.
While I continually see reports about the removal of US troops from a country as a “punishment”, I have yet to see anyone calculate the impact.
It doesn’t seem that the spending power of 5,000 soldiers on a base would impact the GDP of a country the size of Germany.
5,000 troops……….so far.
5,000 soldiers plus other family members as well as the cost of base operations will add up.
If 10% of the soldiers live off base, that is 500 empty houses. That may not mean much to Germany overall but it would be really bad for a local economy if the reduction happened in one place.
500 empty houses?
That would easily house 5000 members of the religion of ‘piece’ who will be enhancing the German economy
The U.S. has between 35,000 and 36,000 military personnel stationed in Germany, so the reduction is around 14%. I know that doesn’t translate easily or directly to dollar/Euro impact, but I thought that number was worth knowing.
All this will be reversed if congress doesn’t get off of their collective butter and start codifying the eo’s
Butts, I hate autofill
😂. Ironically, “butter” fits also.
It is therefore Absolutely Critical that Vance (presumably) wins in 28.
The real problem is the GOPe, will pull out All The Stops to see that Vance Doesn’t win, and that the Dem, or an acceptable (globalist) republican, a
Shrub-like Republican, like DeSantis wins.
My bet is on Rubio right now. Vance is not who he appears to be…think the role of Vice President George H W Bush. I won’t elaborate further…
The problem with Vance is his connection to the tech bros, Thiel & Palantir – IOW the surveillance state.
OTH he is America First, MAGA and against globalism.
Rubio is a complete unknown; he could be a MAGA, or he could regress to his swampy roots. No real way to know. We really need at least another term of Trump – if only……..
We have to hope Trump is working with and grooming them both to further his policies, and that he won’t support DiSantus. And that he’s both able to and willing to campaign vigorously for them, unlike Reagan in 92.
Vance is very smooth and mostly says the right things. Events paint a different picture though, consider for example the unprecedented number of attempts on our President’s life, which were all deep state attempts to install Vance (in the pattern of GHW Bush/Reagan). To quote the bible, selah (pause and calmly think about that).
God prepares people for their assignment…think about POTUS having declared bankruptcy decades ago, his background in heavy construction causing him to realize what had actually happened on September 11th, etc. Marco Rubio has had to wear so many hats that he has become a running joke/meme. To me, this indicates that he has earned and continues to earn the President’s trust. Also that he’s being taken through a deep crash course on how to execute the office of the President. Furthermore he is of Cuban heritage and has no love for what the deep state communists have done to Cuba. This can’t be by coincidence, Jesus said that every hair on our head is numbered and there are no coincidences.
Could the President after POTUS be someone other than Rubio? 100%, I have no special knowledge. This will be interesting to watch.
zelenskyy looks more com/demanding among four in picture!!!
Bad desicions have consequences. All these pretty boys are getting what they deserved and so are the dummies who hug trees. It’s time to bring the boys home; these losers are not worth a single American life.
Although Germany has long been the dominant economic power in Europe, Poland is emerging as a leading force in the Central and Eastern Europe sector and is becoming very competitive in many areas of industry…
Poles are historically very smart, industrious and brave people.
But living on an invasion plane has been a tremendous burden on them.
I visited the country recently. It is squeaky clean, no visible poverty, and hardly any crime…. everyone is courteous and they dislike the Russian’s more than they did the Nazi’s or so it seemed.
Nazi Nato had their own version of Operation Punishment, finishing in the Balkans against the Holocaust victim Serbian people what they tried to do in WWII. With little to no pushback from Israel & the most of the Jewish communities around the world.

$9.50 a gallon for gas in Germany right now must hurt the economy. Maybe they relying on bikes?
Think smaller, the lifestyle re: very extensive mass transit coverage in Europe is very different from the US. The impact on people’s transportation here in the US is more analagous in countries with greater wide open spaces, like Australia.
I am on the scene… gas is eu. 1.93 for 90/10 regular gas / ltr, diesel is eu 1.88 /ltr. fuel is up about +_ 10% since two–three weeks ago. Starting to hit food prices harder now.
Yes, you are correct…they do rely onE-bikes and E-scooters. The bikes are super high-dollar E-bikes,
3-6 K a pop, and purchase is subsidized by either the gov’t or maybe the employers. Some Cos. offer them as part of the compensation package for new hires.
The locale I am at lost a very large RCAF deployment (+- 30 K, all told, enlisted, families and civilian employees). That was in the early 90s and they are still feeling the pain. Also lost a lot of German jobs because of it.
When the Canucs moved out, the Ruskies moved in, probably more of ’em. The wall had only rescently gone down, and the locals said that if you were Russian and were able to prove that your grandfather had a German Sheperd (meaning he was a German P.O.W. called Volga Deutch, because of where they put the prisoners), then The Gov’t would subsidize your rent and buy you a minivan. Needless to say, the locals were not happy. wrecked the wages, too, taxes and the crime rate went up. The whole country is stilll paying a tax to fund the reunification to this day
A Hegelian Dialectic. Wall St funds both “Nazism” & “Communism” to assist another ‘ism” think about what came out of that Wall St-London Dialectic.
Deutschland wieder stark machen
This troop draw down is a start. But it’s just a start. Let’s get them out and move them to new bases in Central and South America. That will help combat the Chinese and Russian influence in the Americas (except for Canada), it will help the economies of those countries, and will be cheaper than keeping our troops in the EU. Let’s move them.
Thankfully we have a President that is
A.) a great business man
b). good at playing chess
C) great at the macro and micro economic
d) a very decent human being
e) Loves the U.S .of A
The US currently has about 35,000 military members stationed in Germany. Pulling back 5,000 is a start, but is more symbolic at this point. It sends a message. Bringing home 15,000+ would signal a true strategic pivot.
But the tariff increase is more than a message, and is going to shake an already severely weakened industrial sector there. The German ‘government’ has done a splendid job wrecking their economy all by themselves. They are energy-starving it to death, intentionally.
At the end of day, Merz is not there to help Germany, but to help the Globalist-Chinese axis destroy Germany. China will supply the things, and the third world will supply the inhabitants. And these satanic elites foolishly expect to rule over the resulting hellscape.
It’s up to the Germans themselves to take their country back from these luciferian Quislings. AfD and other pro-German movements are the way out of this.
Wow! An American President putting America first and not kowtowing to Euroweenies! How pleasing that!!!
In baseball, it is called a squeeze play.
You force the opponent to decide who gets thrown out.
Mertz has to decide. Ukraine or Germany.
🎯
Perhaps an additional outcome would come from the people of Germany finally deciding to replace their stupid progressive socialist leaders with those more interested in rebuilding their economy and putting the people first. It could happen. Any thoughts?
Beautiful! FAFO Doctrine in full force.
Facing crushingly high increases in energy costs, last Monday in Marsberg, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz criticized the U.S. approach to Iran, saying Washington was being “humiliated by the Iranian leadership” and demanding the conflict end “as quickly as possible.”
What is this guy smoking? Surely Germany has an intelligence agency that can provide the Kanzler with accurate information.
This is plain EU propaganda BS.
Wow Colkitto, your post is absolutely accurate and timely! Beautiful work!

We are losing our country to a wholly anti-God, Devil-led, communist political foe! God help us, I pray!
Ty friend. I hope you are ‘following me’. Cheers mate
It was nice of Fred Merz to let us use our AF bases!!
FAFO!
The G-3 (aka Ex-G7 …. EU-US-Japan) meets in France in about 5 weeks.
Who is being humiliated now?
“humiliated by the Iranian leadership”………
You’d think Fred and Ethyl would have raised little Freddy to be more honest.
When the economic realities explode, lil’ Freddy’s gonna have some splainin’ to do.
MAGA Fabulous!!
Merz’ popularity is one of the worst in the EU. He’s just another self-appointed elite turd.
It seems EU acquire’s their unreliable weaponry and strategic blueprints from ACME Corporation. Every attempt at blowing up President Trump’s mission backfires spectacularly. You’d think they learn.
Meep-meep.
Thanks for clarifying that for me, Jeanine ,
All these years I thought I was hearing “beep-beep”….
when it comes to bypassing & (usually easily) outwitting “creeps-creeps” !!! 😉😉😉👌
