The Daily Beast, another LEFT-WING propaganda outlet, pretends that this strike means Ukraine is winning. I think every one of these journalists should be drafted, handed a gun, and sent to Ukraine to defend what they boast about. Sorry, Putin is the smartest leader in the room. He has drawn so many red lines, and the EU has crossed each one, trying to compel him to attack NATO. Despite the NEOCON propaganda that Western media keeps spouting, this attack does not mean Ukraine is winning on the battlefield, which takes soldiers.
Anyone with real sources knows that this is a proxy war, and the EU does not care if a single Eastern European is left alive as long as they take a Russian with them. Europe is collapsing economically, and without war, the EU will crumble and divide. The two economies that are actually shrinking are Japan and Germany. A source who was there in Brussels stated plainly that it is now Germany and Merz who are the most aggressive, pushing for war. The entire financial system built on perpetual debt that is NEVER paid off is coming to an end. They need war as a distraction, or the people will be storming the Parliaments.
Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson said that Ukrainians are doing everything possible to strike Russian military targets, while Russian invaders continue attacking civilians. Johnson is probably one of the most loathsome politicians out there. I do not know how he sleeps at night. He is responsible for the deaths of more than 500,000 Ukrainians since he hopped on a plane to instruct Zelensky that he was not allowed to sign a peace deal.
“Ukrainians are unbreakable and technologically brilliant. They’re doing everything they can to hit military targets, while Putin indiscriminately slaughters civilians. Time for the UK and EU to back Lindsey Graham’s secondary sanctions bill. Time to tighten the noose around Putin and end this war.”
The UK government’s debt-to-GDP ratio stands at 97.6% and has been steadily rising. The UK claims that it has never formally defaulted on its sovereign gilt debt by refusing to make a scheduled interest or principal payment. However, the 1720 South Sea Bubble restructuring and the 1932 War Loan conversion involved significant unilateral changes to debt terms that harmed creditors, leading some historians and economists to argue they indeed represent forms of selective or de facto default/restructuring.
There are clearly economic reasons behind this thirst for war coming out of Europe, egged on by the Neocons on both sides of the Atlantic. The computer warns that the EU will fail and collapse. There is another problem nobody is talking about, and that is that all the migrants they let into Europe brought with them ethnic feuds. The EU politicians thought they would allow these people in and then send them to war. This is not going to work out as they hoped. There is a higher probability that we will see rising civil unrest in Europe.
The EU is correct that if Ukraine falls, there goes Europe. However, that does NOT mean Russia invades Europe. There is NOTHING there worth taking. Instead, the collapse of Ukraine is more about the collapse of the Western political hegemony. This will lead to the crumbling of the EU internally with division – not some invasion by Putin.
Ukraine is the great EU gamble. The hopes of conquering Russia to get the $75 trillion in natural resources to resurrect Europe as the pinnacle of economic power. The collapse of Ukraine really means the collapse of European debt, and the division will erupt just as you see in the American Democratic Party and its internal Civil War.
We will create a private blog to discuss the timing of the end of the Euro.

QUESTION: Why Bitcoin has been strong in recent weeks??
Best
Gerry
ANSWER: Bitcoin is the primary vehicle for money laundering. Even Canadians are using it to withdraw cash from the country. It is the same instrument as gold in all countries. Europeans are also using it to circumvent capital controls. There are rumors that a kill switch exists in Bitcoin, which could wipe out all accounts in the years ahead. I would not consider Bitcoin a store of value when the government created it. I still prefer precious metals as a safe haven for my money. Bitcoin is a trading vehicle.
Nevertheless, this pattern does not yet indicate a final, exhaustive, and isolated high. The new highs may be seen in war, as it is primarily used to extract money from countries. That is how it began, with most of the volume from China.

A point to emphasize.
Current Secretary of State and National Security Advisor, Marco Rubio, was chair of the senate select committee on intelligence (SSCI) and a Gang of Eight member since day one of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Due to his role in the Gang of Eight Senator Rubio was briefed on all the covert activities being carried out in Ukraine by the CIA and Pentagon.
That is why when Secretary of State Marco Rubio told media months ago that “Ukraine was a proxy war for the United States against Russia,” it was a jaw-dropping statement. If anyone would know the receipts, it’s the former Chair of the SSCI, who became the Secretary of State. However, to say the truth so openly and publicly was something entirely unexpected, especially from Rubio.
As Secretary of State Rubio represented President Trump’s America-First foreign policy and national security interests very effectively, many people were shocked at the seemingly 180° degree turn Rubio took to represent the MAGA perspectives. Rubio adroitly navigated the media with exceptional support for President Trump’s positions, and diplomatic action to back it up.
While most of us continue watching Rubio closely, obviously President Trump saw the unique perspectives held by the former Senator on intelligence matters. President Trump then appointed Rubio to a dual role as National Security Advisor and Secretary of State.
While the Secretary of State represents the public face of President Trump’s diplomatic policy toward the world, the Nat Sec Advisory represents President Trump’s outward view to the global intelligence network. Marco Rubio now carries both extremely important titles and responsibilities.
Keeping in mind the prior statements by Rubio about Ukraine being a proxy state for U.S. operations against Russia, both Marco Rubio and President Trump have been mostly silent and very measured in their comments about Russia after the Ukraine attack on the Russian nuclear-capable bombers.
Obviously, both Secretary Rubio and President Trump know the Senate control of the BBB is unfortunate timing for their solutions to the Ukraine-Russia war. Their solution is likely to be something the Senate will not like. The Senate will never publicly admit that Ukraine is a U.S. proxy war against Russia.
However, while the Senate needs to retain these ridiculous pretenses, ultimately Russian President Vladimir Putin does not. Putin is well aware of the USA support level, open and covert, taking place within Ukraine. This is the context for all of President Trump’s communication with Putin.
You can even pull that context out of President Trump’s statement following his recent conversation with President Putin, “it was a good conversation, but not a conversation that will lead to immediate Peace.” The key word there is “immediate.” The implication is that Peace can be achieved but some forward factors need to be addressed first.
We are in this weird place where parts of our government (Senate and media) are pretending the Russia-Ukraine conflict is something, while simultaneously part of our government (executive) are clear-eyed and not pretending.
The pretending part of our government now holds a key piece of President Trump’s domestic agenda, the Big Beautiful Bill, in their control. President Trump and Marco Rubio careful not to apply pressure that could weaken their geopolitical objective with Russia.
Again, the 2025 Marco Rubio is not a familiar person who have followed republican politics. Rubio has been one of the biggest positive surprises of the administration so far. In a position of such importance to President Trump, and with this level of responsibility being used effectively, Rubio is well positioned to achieve support in 2028.
…”I don’t think I’d get 99 votes now.” ~Marco Rubio

Earlier today President Trump held a press availability in the oval office with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. The topics of conversation surrounded trade, NATO funding, Ukraine, Russia, President Trump’s conversation with Chairman Xi Jinping, the tax cut and budget bill and Elon Musk’s criticism.
At 04:42 of the video President Trump discusses his conversation with Chairman Xi Jinping of China. President Trump and Chairman Xi agreed to organize their teams for another discussion and President Trump noted he would be sending Scott Bessent, Howard Lutnick and Jamieson Greer to another round of talks to hammer out the details. Additionally, President Trump invited Chairman Xi to the USA, and Chairman Xi invited President Trump to visit China.
At the 10:00 mark, President Trump discusses the autopen controversy around the former Biden administration. At 13:40 President Trump was asked about Elon Musk and his opposition to the Big Beautiful Bill. President Trump and Scott Bessent walk through the benefits inside the bill and President Trump notes the EV subsidy was removed from the bill which seemed to be problematic for Musk. WATCH:
.
…”He hasn’t said anything bad about me personally, but I’m sure that will be next. But I’m very disappointed in Elon”…

You Treepers know my top two priorities in the world of politics: Economic Nationalism (MAGAnomics), and capital letter Liberty, the fight against the surveillance state. In these endeavors the “Tech Bros” are opposed to our positions.
President Trump is focused on #1, economic nationalism. He eats, breathes and thinks about it all the time. It is also his #1 priority. However, President Trump has so many other items of great importance on his desk the surveillance state issue does not yet get his focused attention.
But there is good news. Now that Elon Musk has self-detonated, the “Tech Bros” have lost a key source of influence. The Peter Thiel, David Sacks, Elon Musk, JD Vance and Palantir objective of a comprehensive surveillance state is weakened by President Trump telling Musk to get lost. This is good, and we finally have reason to be optimistic. We need to be patient.
As President Trump works through the priorities of the BBB, ongoing trade negotiations, decoupling from China, working toward the dissolution of the USMCA etc., he is also working through the Ukraine-Russia conflict, the Israel-Gaza conflict, the Iran nuclear issues and other geopolitical events. Once those challenges are majority cleared, hopefully that’s when we will see a confrontation of the surveillance state surface.
If confrontation with the surveillance state is also a priority for you, be patient.
Musk has self-detonated much earlier than I expected. That is awesome, and I carry a big smile today thanking our loving God for His favor, His timing, His unfolding.
Eventually President Trump will see the Palantir constructs that have been laid around the administration by Machiavellian elements. Trump’s hindsight will then be a weapon as he starts asking the big questions to those who have sat silently as the constructs have unfolded.
Live your very best life, it is the only one you have.
Remember, if you are healthy, you likely have a lot of problems on your mind; however, if you are NOT healthy, you only have one.
Be thankful for our problems and keep them in perspective.
Warmest regards and love to all,

Sometime around April of 2026 (approx. 15 months), if not sooner, Elon Musk will be in opposition to Donald Trump and demanding people choose.
