For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

President Trump and President Vladimir Putin Joint News Conference – 7:00pm ET Livestream

A hostile U.S. media is chomping at the bit to begin belittling Vladimir Putin, creating division and making themselves the center of the geopolitical universe.  President Trump is not going to like the assembly of global media and narrative engineers who have converged on Anchorage, Alaska for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

President Trump and President Putin are scheduled to hold a joint press conference tonight at the conclusion of their summit.  The entire world is watching.  The best guess is approximately a 7:00pm ET start time. Livestream Links Below:

The Russiagate Releases Were Organized in Advance of this Summit

While it may be frustrating to many people to realize most of the Russiagate declassification and releases of information are not intended to generate indictments or legal accountability, on the strategic upside the view of the public toward the U.S. Intelligence Community propaganda provides major breathing room for a U.S-Russia reset.

Arguably, the Russiagate releases can be looked upon as intentionally strategic, or just surreptitiously timed.

The opposition to this discussion, meeting, peace effort and potential strategic realignment, includes: The CIA, NATO, the U.K, British intelligence (GCHQ), Five-Eyes, the European Union, China, BRICS, Ukraine, World Bank, Wall Street, the military industrial complex, Blackrock and global leftists.

If President Trump and President Putin can overcome all those in opposition to their unity and still form a strategic alliance, the entire world changes.  This cannot be overstated.

Serious Men – President Trump Greets President Vladimir Putin

The body language, the facial expressions, the tone of their interactions, all of it frames the visual of two men of consequence meeting to discuss consequential things.

Having spent a considerable amount of time in the geopolitical orbit of both leaders, this meeting puts a very significant smile on my face.  When respectful serious men cut through the nonsense of propaganda, containing ulterior motives created by others, good things happen.  This is a very good start.

President Trump greets Russian President Vladimir Putin on the tarmac at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson near Anchorage, Alaska.  Both leaders then get into President Trump’s vehicle.  WATCH:
