In the world of geopolitics created by the U.S. Dept of State and CIA, the pretending is thick.

A recent report has Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy now offering to give up territory to Russian President Vladimir Putin in exchange for NATO membership for the remaining portion. The story is sold by western media as if Zelenskyy has options, he doesn’t. However, Putin has a very strong weapon that President Trump has to navigate with a team of people around U.S. policy that are tenuous at best. Let’s discuss without the pretending.

Start with a Politico Article HERE, that frames the entry of President Donald Trump as the wildcard that has everyone, according to the DC narrative, rushing to get the best position in the final weeks before Trump’s arrival.

The DC narrative is that Russia is trying to maximize their land gains, while Zelenskyy and the NATO allies attempt to position for the least losses possible before they are forced to start peace talks.

It’s a little stunning that Washington DC is saying in advance of inauguration day that bloodshed stops, a ceasefire is imminent, and peace negotiations are a foregone conclusion, without President-elect Donald Trump even lifting his chin.

Apparently, and keep in mind this is the narrative of Washington DC, all President Trump needs to do is take his hand off the bible on January 20th and mysteriously global conflict comes to a screeching halt.

All things accepted and considered; the word “remarkable” is not adequate for that DC perspective.  If that administrative state perspective doesn’t just encapsulate the scale of Donald Trump, I don’t know what could.

If global conflict stops or diminishes simply by changing a U.S. president, then who exactly is responsible for global conflict and escalation? I digress…

Next, we enter the perspective of Volodymyr Zelenskyy as newly espoused.

The New York Post [Article Here], where Zelenskyy tells Sky News, “If we want to stop the hot stage of the war, we should take under [the] NATO umbrella the territory of Ukraine that we have under our control. That’s what we need to do fast, and then Ukraine can get back the other part of its territory diplomatically.”  Again, in this context, “fast” is the timetable in Zelenskyy’s mind, before President Trump shows up.

The proverbial “west,” which includes the White House, the CIA, NATO, the EU and the U.S. State Department are all trying to figure out their best exit from bloodshed and war, via a crisis they created a decade ago when they carried out the Maidan color Revolution in Ukraine, ultimately installing Volodymyr Zelenskyy.  The intellectually honest observers of events, that’s the non-pretending group, readily admit this is exactly what happened.

If you thought the lefty heads were going bananas about Mark Zuckerberg going to Mar-a-Lago to bend a knee to President Trump, wait until they find out Justin from Canada is there today.  lol

WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA Nov 29 (Reuters) – Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has arrived in Palm Beach, Florida ahead of a meeting with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort, according to media reports.

Trudeau’s public itinerary does not list a scheduled visit to Florida. Neither Trudeau’s office nor representatives for Trump immediately responded to requests for comment.

Trump on Monday threatened to impose a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico until the countries clamped down on drugs, particularly fentanyl, and migrants crossing the border. (read more)

Too funny.

On October 27th, as the outcome of the Georgia election surfaced in stunning clarity, we warned that the U.S. would fight strongly against the result {GO DEEP}.  Yesterday, unquestionably with the support of Samantha Power – who had vested significant time in the nation, a series of riots against the government surfaced.

The pragmatic and non-pretending people of Georgia saw what the U.S and EU did to Ukraine, and they want nothing to do with it.  Georgians overwhelmingly voted to retain their sovereignty and right to self-determination.  The Biden administration and the EU are furious about it, and immediately the U.S. State Department promised to organize every effort in their interventionist arsenal to challenge the election outcome.

Having spent tens of millions financing an attempted color revolution, and with Samantha Power having traveled to Georgia three times (twice while I watched her), the CIA and State Department were not happy with the result.  As expected, Brussels hit back hard against the rebellious Georgians.

BRUSSELS – […] In a session in Strasbourg, MEPs voted by a margin of 444-72 in favor of a motion to declare the parliamentary election results in the South Caucasus country invalid, arguing they “do not serve as a reliable representation of the will of the Georgian people.” It calls for the election to be re-run within a year under international supervision.

In a statement following passage of the motion, the Parliament said Georgia’s voting process had been “neither free nor fair,” after international election observers expressed concern over pressure on citizens and allegations of vote buying and ballot stuffing.

I made a promise to you that after the President Trump cabinet was assembled, I would review, research and then present my take on what is “most likely” given the nature of the assembly.  My hope today is to take all my notes and research from the past three weeks and put those thoughts into a digestible format.  I’m working on it in the background of so many things :).

There is a general theme visible, one of a large scale, perhaps described as unity; perhaps described as healing; perhaps described as a new era in Americanism.  The Trump Doctrine (which few really understand) in combination with the cabinet assembly, is a great indicator of what lies ahead.

What President Ronald Reagan was to Generation X, President Donald Trump hopes to be for Generation Z; you can see it in everything he does.  A transformative figure that changes the way the American people view and interact with government, with his own unique and modern twist on it.  In essence, what will predictably described as ‘the legacy of Trump‘.

In this episode of Joe Rogan, Marc Andreessen discusses some very important topics in the world of politics.

Marc Andreessen is a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, investor, and software engineer. He is co-creator of the world’s first widely used internet browser, Mosaic, cofounder and general partner at the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, and cohost of “The Ben & Marc Show” podcast.

Andreessen was also a life-long democrat, and the details of the subject matter he outlines is really quite remarkable. It’s a long discussion; however, if you do not have time use the chapter reference points. Andreessen talks rather fast, and the conversation is being widely discussed.

During an appearance in Kazakhstan today, Russian President Vladimir Putin had a press conference with Russian journalists who asked questions about the current conflict with Ukraine.

Before getting to the video, it is worth mentioning that our western viewpoint of Russia respecting strength; is not entirely accurate. There is something Russians respect more than strength, brutal honesty.

One of the things that separates Russians from their eastern European counterparts, is their keen ability to detect and dismiss bullshit. If you watch Russian engagement, from either inside or outside of Russia, their non pretending is truly an artform. Even the silent space between their words is something remarkable to watch.

In this first video segment, Russian President Putin is asked about the motives of outgoing U.S. President Joe Biden to escalate the NATO conflict with Russia. President Putin responds by outlining genuine, factual and honest motives that political pundits in the USA pretend not to know.  It’s fascinating to watch:

JUST IN: 🇷🇺🇺🇸 Russian President Putin slams US President Biden for trying to escalate the war before Donald Trump is inaugurated to prevent a peace deal.

“If president Biden thinks that by escalating the confrontation, he does anything to prevent the future administration from… pic.twitter.com/dXGoN1yLhW

Why the presser? Why the questions? Why the willingness? Look, I’m no Putin whisperer, but I can see a brutally obvious motive of Vladimir Putin speaking directly to President Trump, through the media. For a myriad of reasons, including the honesty of his responses and statements, this approach seems completely logical and practical.

This next segment is even more interesting.

Multiple cabinet nominees of President-Elect Trump have faced threats against their lives and their families.  President Trump’s spokesperson Karoline Leavitt released a statement:

According to Reuters: […] “Elise Stefanik, a Republican U.S. representative and Trump’s choice to be U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, and Lee Zeldin, a former Republican congressman who is Trump’s pick to head the Environmental Protection Agency, both said in separate statements they had been the targets of bomb threats.

On Wednesday evening Pete Hegseth, Trump’s nominee to be U.S. defense secretary, said his family had been the target of a pipe bomb threat.

In the background of other interesting matters, it’s worthwhile taking a glance into the TikTok battle every once in a while.  While I retain a slight ambivalence to the issue of TikTok and social media control mechanisms, it is also true that TikTok is currently the only larger used platform that is not directly under the wing of the U.S. Intelligence Community.

As we noted in the recent Romanian election outcome, the winner of round #1, a nationalist-minded Romania First candidate named Călin Georgescu, strongly directed his campaign message to the Romanian people, via TikTok. Georgescu campaigned on an anti-EU, anti-NATO and anti-war with Russia platform; simultaneously supporting domestic farmers, domestic energy production and advocating for a Romania that is free from foreign influence.

Suddenly, the Romanian officials who lost the election are asking the EU to investigate TikTok for allowing the organic message of Georgescu to flourish and generate support.

(Via Politico) […] TikTok is under mounting pressure to explain how it handled political content in Romania after a first round presidential vote on Sunday propelled the ultranationalist, pro-Russian firebrand Călin Georgescu to a shock victory, in part thanks to his sudden surge on TikTok. A top EU lawmaker demanded on Tuesday that TikTok’s chief executive appear before the European Parliament to answer questions, and Romanian NGOs have urged the Commission to look into whether TikTok and other platforms complied with Europe’s social media laws.

The European Commission oversees TikTok’s compliance with the bloc’s new DSA rulebook, which sets the rules for how large online platforms moderate content, including in political campaigns.

Unburdened by the agency of what has been, Kamala tells the remaining voices shouting at trees, “they still have power.”

While it is never polite form to laugh in public as the Moonbats step on rakes, sometimes it is impossible to retain a straight face and watch them do it.
