It would appear that President Trump’s campaign co-chair, and current selection for Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles, was the link that pushed Pam Bondi to become the next Attorney General nominee.

From the Associated Press:

[…] Bondi worked as a lobbyist for Ballard Partners, the powerful Florida-based firm where Trump’s campaign chief and incoming chief of staff Susie Wiles was a partner. Her U.S. clients have included General Motors, the commissioner of Major League Baseball and a Christian anti-human-trafficking advocacy group.

She also lobbied for a Kuwaiti firm, according to Justice Department foreign agent filings and congressional lobbying documents. She registered as a foreign agent for the government of Qatar; her work was related to anti-human-trafficking efforts leading up to the World Cup, held in 2022.

Bondi also represented the KGL Investment Company KSCC, a Kuwaiti firm also known as KGLI, lobbying the White House, National Security Council, State Department and Congress on immigration policy, human rights and economic sanctions issues. (Source)

You might note, Pam Bondi and Mr James Rubin are the “key personnel” on the foreign agent registration notification.  In his current role working for Joe Biden, James Rubin heads the U.S. State Department’s Global Engagement Center.

Glenn Greenwald appears for an interview with Tucker Carlson on the topic of the Biden administration directly making a decision as they exit the White House to attack Russia and provoke a direct war between U.S-led NATO and Russia.

Greenwald notes the accurate context of the recent decision to provide, launch, target and direct ATACMS missiles to hit targets inside Russia.  This is not the U.S. providing Ukraine with weapons for use.  This is the USA using the auspices of Ukraine geography to launch missiles into Russia that can only be launched, directed and targeted by U.S-NATO members.

Ukraine does not have the targeting systems or satellites to use these longer-range ATACM missiles for strikes into Russia. Ukraine is merely the launch geography for the U.S/NATO to launch missiles directly into Russia.  President Vladimir Putin specifically said he has clear eyes on what this deployment means.  WATCH:

.

On an ancillary note, having spent three months inside Russia this summer and having the associated contacts therein, the Russian government is currently in the process of shutting down their nation in preparation for what comes next.  All of the previous rules and regulations for entry visas are essentially gone.  You will not read this anywhere else, but I can assure you Russia is isolating in preparation for war. This is not a good sign at all.

Having spent some time in the weeds this morning, I’m not sure the current trajectory is reversible before President Trump’s inauguration.  President Trump is going to face a considerable challenge.  Without doubt the Intelligence Community control agents in the Biden administration are monitoring every call and intercepting every contact that President-elect Trump might have in the next 6 weeks, in order to ensure their objectives are accomplished.

For very obvious reasons I don’t believe them.  However, that said, take an elevated position on the issue for a moment and ask yourself, ‘what are the implications if the United States Pentagon are fabricating claims about North Korean troops on the ground in Kursk, Russia?’

The United States Defense Department asserted today that DPRK troops are on the ground in the Kursk region.  Actual North Korean troops on the battlefield fighting against Ukraine.   Has anyone seen any single physical attributable example, a picture, a photograph, a video, a satellite image, a drone video, a declassified field report; heck, anything – anything at all – to support such a claim?

.

This claim, and the total lack of evidence for it, is really nuts if you think about it.

Where are the journalists who look at these officials and say, “prove it.”  I mean, the path we are traveling ends in a very dark place for the U.S-NATO and Russia.  Shouldn’t someone, anyone, ask some very pointed questions?  Where the heck is Biden?

New York Times – Early this morning, Ukraine’s military launched a volley of American-made ballistic missiles into Russia for the first time. The attack came on the 1,000th day of the war and less than a week after President Biden gave the Ukrainians permission to do so in a major shift of American policy.

It’s not Joe Biden per se’, he is simply a useful pawn.  This action is coming from the people deep inside the IC and State Dept who are committed to fomenting a serious conflict with Russia and Vladimir Putin as the White House is about to change hands.  We previously said to watch out for this lame duck session.

In response to previous discussion about this, Russian President Vladimir Putin said he had ‘clear eyes’ on what long-range missile deployment inside Ukraine really meant. Ukraine does not have the targeting systems or satellites to use long-range missiles for strikes into Russia.

If long-range missiles were used by Ukraine, they originate from the U.S-NATO and they are deployed with the targeting of U.S-NATO.  Vladimir Putin clearly stated that if such weapons were used, Russia will not pretend or ignore that this is direct provocative engagement by NATO against Russia.  Knowing this, the people around Joe Biden have just deployed exactly what Putin warned about.

WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden has authorized Ukraine to use a powerful American long-range weapon for limited strikes inside Russia in response to North Korea’s deployment of thousands of troops to aid Moscow’s war effort, according to two senior U.S. officials.

In reaction to the pending arrival of President Trump, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is now saying the conflict with Russia is possible to end with diplomacy:

(Via CBS) – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Kyiv would like to end the war with Russia next year through “diplomatic means” as both countries prepare for President-elect Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

In an interview with the Ukrainian media outlet Suspilne, Zelenskyy said he is certain that the war will end “sooner” than it otherwise would have once Mr. Trump becomes president. (read more)

It is important to remember that in this “new democracy” framed by the support of U.S-led NATO, Zelenskyy cancelled all elections within Ukraine in order to maintain his alignment with western influence.

Zelenskyy’s new position is a natural outcome of President Trump’s pending arrival.

President Trump really doesn’t have to do much; all he needs to do is withdraw U.S. support, wait a little while, demand Ukraine hold elections, and Zelenskyy will flee the nation because the political support he needs to retain the illusion of the fight is not present in the will of the Ukraine majority.

Calling for diplomacy is an outcome of Ukraine’s inherent weakness if even the slightest measure of U.S. support is withdrawn. Ukraine can only maintain the battle as long as the U.S. continues funneling money, weapons and direct targeting assistance into the battlefield.

In mid-April of this year, I was sitting in a Starbucks (renamed Stars Coffee) in the Galleria Mall in downtown Saint Petersburg, Russia, watching the massive crowds of shoppers that looked like something out of a mid-1990’s Christmas season in the USA. The place was packed with people shopping.

As I sipped my coffee, on my phone I was reading a Wall Street Journal report about the devastating impact of the Western sanctions against Russia, “according to those with an understanding of Moscow’s situation.”  I read a paragraph, looked up at the crowd, read a paragraph, looked around and the bags being carried, I laughed.

A little later, I filled the gas tank in my rent-a-car for $15 and drove past miles upon miles of towering apartment buildings under construction, having just read about the shortage of ‘steel’ in Russia, “according to sources familiar with the matter.”  Stopping to buy a week’s worth of groceries for $70, I referenced the other article from the Washington Post that day about massive inflation in Russia, “according to expert western economists.”

Several weeks later I had another cup of coffee at a cafe’ in eastern Ukraine, while reading a New York Times article about mass casualties and alarming bombing that was apparently happening all around me.  The sun was shining, but it was a little chilly.  It was very odd, to read the USA publication describing “despair” evident to them, somehow, while I see smiling faces of people all around me doing ordinary things and enjoying sausage rolls.

The journey to understand the manipulation of information flow from the U.S. Intelligence Community to Americans, really solidified in those moments.  Yes Alice, this is why the IC controls social media, I thought to myself.

Responding to reporters’ questions, today President of the European Union commission Ursula von der Leyen congratulated Donald Trump then immediately began the framework to explain EU background discussions in economic terms. “We still get a lot of [liquified natural gas] from Russia, and why not replace it by American LNG, which is cheaper for us and brings down our energy prices,” said Ursula von der Leyen.

The EU realizes the seismic shift that is upon them as a result of the U.S. election.  Everything from the Ukraine-Russia war; the economics of energy which President Trump will use in negotiations for peace; to the factual lowered prices within the EU created by Joe Biden energy policy to punish Americans; to funding for NATO in combination with the potential for the end of the Marshal Plan one-way tariffs are looming.  President von der Leyen is in a very precarious position.

.

Ursula was speaking from ¹Budapest, Hungary.

While many are interpreting her remarks about purchasing LNG to be snuggling up to President Trump, factually it is a much bigger problem than western media will openly discuss.

In the Reuters report you have to understand the difference in Russian cultural language to appreciate what President Vladimir Putin means when he says, “[Trump] behaved, in my opinion, in a very correct way, courageously, like a real man.”

Russians speak in very blunt terms when the behavior of men and women are evaluated.  It sounds odd through a politically correct western filter, but Putin was just praising the ‘honesty’ and ‘strength’ of President Trump.

[Example: A Russian woman describing her husband would say to another Russian, “he is my best man.”]

The bottom-line indication from President Putin is that he welcomes the change in geopolitical dynamic that a pragmatic, honest and strong man brings to the table.  Putin respects Trump.  The baseline for a negotiated peace deal exists.

(Reuters) – SOCHI, Russia (Reuters) -Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday congratulated Donald Trump on winning the U.S. election, praised him for showing courage when a gunman tried to assassinate him, and said Moscow was ready for dialogue with the Republican president-elect.

In his first public remarks since Trump’s win, Putin said Trump had acted like a real man during an assassination attempt on him while he was speaking at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania in July.

“He behaved, in my opinion, in a very correct way, courageously, like a real man,” Putin said at the Valdai discussion club in the Russian Black Sea resort of Sochi. “I take this opportunity to congratulate him on his election.”

First, a repeat of what I have said for over two years, “WATCH MOLDOVA“👀 – Their vote is today.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban recently reminded the EU collective, they will need to revise their pro-war stance if President Donald Trump wins the election on Tuesday.  Orban is a good friend of President Trump and ideological ally of MAGA.

Despite the trillions at stake and the WEF/EU alignment that continues promoting the meat grinder in Ukraine, Prime Minister Orban is well aware that things will seismically change if President Donald Trump wins and brings the peace solution to the frenzy.

(Via Politico) – A Donald Trump victory in the United States election on Nov. 5 would force the European Union to adapt its stance on the war in Ukraine, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said Sunday.

“Europe cannot bear the burden of [the war] alone, and if Americans switch to peace, then we also need to adapt, and this is what we will discuss in Budapest,” Orbán said, according to a Reuters report, referring to a Nov. 7-8 meeting of European leaders in the Hungarian capital.

In recent days the Washington Post, Tampa Tribune, USA Today and LA Times have refused to endorse President Obama’s selected and chosen installed candidate, Kamala Harris.  Against this backdrop, former President Obama has delivered some of his most toxic and divisive speeches and pronouncements to date.

From his high-horse, Obama has scolded black men for refusing to accept his appointed replacement and relied on angry ridiculing messaging in his last desperate attempts to remain relevant.  Big Mike has joined in the proclamations of fear, targeting her Alinsky approach toward bitter, white suburban women.

Internationally, the French parliamentary elections rebuked President Emmanuel Macron, the recent Georgia referendum was overwhelmingly against the NATO agenda.  The Hungarian people are pushing back against EU/NATO demands for more bloodshed in Ukraine, while Serbia, Slovenia and Montenegro refuse to antagonize Putin.

As the BRICS+ coalition gains influence, Argentina and El Salvador shift away from the agenda of the World Economic Forum.  The Western alliance is now dependent on Australia and Great Britain to advance the Build Back Better agenda as Germany and other industrialized nations continue suffering economic contraction as an outcome of their energy compliance program, an economic suicide mission.

While quietly benefiting from a tenuous background alignment with Russia, Turkey has positioned itself as Erdoğan always does, for itself and only for itself.  As an outcome of international financial processes intended to punish Vladimir Putin, Russia has entirely divested itself from western financial influence.  After a modicum of moderate angst in the decoupling, Russia is thriving.  The Chinese industrial base now benefits from a closer economic alliance with Moscow.

In the biggest of the big pictures, U.S influence across the globe has significantly diminished.  The dollar-based geopolitical elephant is slowly being chewed down to size, one bite at a time.
