With efforts ongoing to bring an end to the bloody war in Ukraine, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy suggested that his country should be given nuclear weapons if it wasn’t guaranteed NATO membership, but that’s not going to happen. In a strong reaction to what would be a catastrophic development, retired Lt. General Keith Kellogg who was tapped by President Donald J. Trump as his special envoy to Ukraine and Russia said that there are only two chances that the U.S. would agree to allow the Ukrainian regime to have nukes. “The chance of them getting their nuclear weapons back is somewhere between slim and none,” Kellogg told Fox News Digital.

“Zelenskyy’s demands“ An oxymoron. I would be careful about making “demands” to PDJT.

When the Soviet Union fell, Ukraine surrendered its nuclear weapons in return for a guarantee to respect its territorial integrity. There were violations by the US and Russia of that agreement, including US political corruption, biolabs and NGO's in Ukraine undermining the country. There are no clean hands on the Ukraine issue.

It's a shame that the Ukrainians were stupid enough to trust the USA when we promise to "ensure their territorial integrity" if they gave up the nuclear weapons that they possessed. Trusting the USA, sad to say, is a very, very stupid thing to do.

Trusting the USA is a dicey thing for any country since we have a political system that turns every four years. They could never be sure of any continuance of good things.

Re #6. I worked with many veterinarian and human microbiology research labs in Ukraine, Georgia and Russia. The 'biolabs' that gets tossed around so ignorantly, were funded by DTRA, the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. I toured some of the Georgian and Ukrainian research institutes before and after the DTRA money and they originally had $4 hardware store locks on the doors to rooms with upright home type freezers filled with hundreds of biological research samples. And a few of those samples were nasty stuff, smallpox, etc. It was all that they could afford, they couldn't afford to heat the buildings, literally. With DTRA money, modern card swipe security and emergency power generators were added to protect PRE-EXISTING legitimate biological research samples. Nothing new was created, and all we funded was a layer of better security to make it more difficult for terrorists to access pre-existing biological materials. I saw this first hand, and I managed several multiyear projects in these countries. The internet BS about biolabs developing COVID over there are just misinformed. COVID was developed by the ChiComs in their Wuhan bioweapon lab. The projects I worked on were employing former soviet scientists who had worked on WMDs in peaceful, non-military, commercial R&D. If you want some facts, look up Global Initiatives for Proliferation Prevention (GIPP). The implied nefarious 'biolabs' in Ukraine is BS, and just foolishness.

A few things: 1.) Russia is a country run by people with feudal mindsets who view Ukraine as a once-possessed territory that they should possess again; 2.) If you don't understand the difference between Ukrainians and Russians, it's not unlike the difference between Portuguese and Spaniards: Yeah, they speak a similar language, but it isn't the exact same thing... and the cultures are miles apart; 3.) Ukrainians in the military on the front-line are not unlike MAGA Americans: They're patriotic, and they want to see their country survive as a sovereign, independent nation with self-determination. You don't have to like Zelensky or the Kyiv nomenklatura to understand that; 4.) Don't underestimate the Ukrainians' capacity for developing their own nukes if the west abandons them. Ukraine's engineering talent once made up the engineering backbone of the Soviet Union; 5.) Let's not forget that even when FJB was in office, Ukraine never asked for American boots on its grounds; it asked only to be armed to the teeth. Tucker Carlson would you have you believe Ukraine has no chance because Russia outnumbers Ukraine in people 3 to 1. BS! By Carlson's own logic, the nation state of Israel -- outnumbered 15 or 20 to 1 by historically hostile surrounding states -- should also not exist. And yet it does. Russian media reported Carlson got paid for his "interview" with Putin. Nobody should pay attention to that kind of tool

BREAKING: Trump revokes Biden's security

Posted by Hazymac 2/7/2025 7:44:12 PM Post Reply
In a tit-for-tat move, President Donald Trump revoked former President Joe Biden's security clearance. Trump announced his plans to do so on Truth Social, saying "we are immediately revoking Joe Biden’s Security Clearances, and stopping his daily Intelligence Briefings." In 2021, shortly after taking office, Biden had revoked Trump's security clearance. Former presidents typically retain their security clearance as those in the very small club of past presidents have a unique perspective on domestic and global matters as well as on the rarified position that they each have held. "There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information," Trump said,

Big if true, as they say. The Trump administration is considering three potential areas for the absorption of refugee Gazans after President Donald Trump announced that the US plans to take over the Gaza Strip and relocate those currently there to rebuild the area, N12 reported on Wednesday. According to the report, the areas being considered are Morocco, Puntland, and Somaliland. The report noted that what these three countries share in common is a strong need for US support, as Somaliland and Puntland seek international recognition, and Morocco has an ongoing territorial dispute over Western Sahara. Somaliland has been looking for recognition as an independent country.

On Saturday the U.S. Army released the name of the second pilot—reported to have been pilot in command—of the Blackhawk helicopter that collided with American Airlines flight 5342 over the Potomac River, killing 67 people. This was a marked departure from Army policy that states “Names, city, and state of deceased will be withheld until 24 hours after next of kin notification.” This was the standard process used to identify the other two members of the Army’s flight crew, Chief Warrant Officer Andrew Eaves, and Staff Sgt.

The battle over funding for USAID is absolutely glorious for so many reasons. Not only are Donald Trump and Elon Musk beginning to defund the piggy bank being raided by the transnational elite, the alphabet activists, the global left, and not coincidentally, NGOs, which are causing so much damage to the US and the world, but he is forcing the Democrats to defend the least popular spending item in the federal government.

If Elon Musk—who has been an advocate for free speech and small government—has an evil twin, that evil twin is George Soros. Soros, as conservatives know, has spent his billions funding organizations dedicated to leftist causes. One of the causes with the greatest impact has been funding “Soros prosecutors”—hard-left lawyers who refuse to prosecute criminals but enthusiastically prosecuted Trump and other conservatives. It now appears that some large amounts of the money the Soros organizations used to get these prosecutors in office came from USAID. The story begins with the Tides Foundation and the Tides Center, a grant-giving organization.

Mrs. Power does her very best Sally Stuthers impersonation as she claims the only purpose of USAID is to facilitate charity and life-saving public health in “underserved nations” around the world.

Yet, in a display of blatant disrespect for the President’s authority, Weintraub has dug in her heels, refusing to vacate her position, claiming her dismissal is somehow illegal. Weintraub was elected as chair last December 2024. FEC commissioners are appointed to six-year terms by the president and confirmed by the Senate.

Bishop Budde, during an inaugural prayer service at Washington National Cathedral, implored President Trump to show compassion towards vulnerable groups, including illegal aliens and members of the LGBTQ community.
