New low coming from the Trump administration:
"The US air force had deemed a widow ineligible for additional benefits following the death of her husband, Major Alex Klinner, 33, because Congress hadn’t officially declared war."
Witkoff and Kushner — a high-level U.S. delegation making their first visit to Kyiv — are being welcomed by a rather remarkable selection of Zelensky’s top officials: men dogged by corruption allegations and, in some cases, accusations with a distinctly criminal flavor.
Kyrylo Budanov — linked in allegations to Mindich-gate; turned HUR into something of an international collecting point for neo-Nazis; shield of scam call centers; and suspected of organizing an assassination of the businessman Yermolaev and his family in Monaco.
Rustem Umerov — another name swirling around the Mindich-gate allegations, with a biography apparently so eyebrow-raising that even Washington preferred not to have him delivered as Ukraine’s ambassador.
David Arakhamia — facing corruption allegations in the Verkhovna Rada and accused of helping ensure that MPs discover the “correct” way to vote, allegedly with a little motivational literature delivered in envelopes.
Quite the welcoming committee.
Most countries greet a senior American delegation with diplomats, flags, and a guard of honor. Kyiv, apparently, decided to go with the cast of a political crime comedy😎
European politicians are now in the same position as Zelensky - they cannot afford for the war to end. Because the end of the war is a kind of final reckoning, when the books will have to be balanced: how much money was spent, how many lives were lost, and what was ultimately achieved.
And if it turns out that after more than four years of bloodshed, hundreds of billions spent, and tens of thousands of lives lost, the terms of peace are worse than those offered in Istanbul in 2022, someone will have to answer for it - politically, at the very least.
And given that governments in most European countries are already barely clinging to power, a Ukrainian fiasco would effectively mean the end of their political careers.
So they keep dragging things out - especially since they themselves do not have to fight for Ukraine to the last Ukrainian. They are stalling in the hope that somehow, eventually, things will sort themselves out. Maybe Ukraine will cease to exist altogether - that outcome would suit them just fine as well. Anything but formally acknowledging defeat.
After Trump was elected, a vast majority, if not almost all border reporters stopped traveling to the border to report. Everyone just assumes Trump secured the border because we don’t see the droves of 10,000 a day arriving at our shores. The traffickers know this, now they choose to stay hidden. Massive amounts of migrants are still invading this country. Unfortunately @AnthonyAguero is the only one actually reporting on it.
🇺🇦 Zelensky's Superpower: Never Knowing Anything About Anyone Around Him
Didn't know his Defense Minister was stealing.
Didn't know his Justice Minister was stealing.
Didn't know his Energy Minister was stealing.
Didn't know his closest friend and business partner, Timur Mindich, built and ran an organized crime group.
Didn't know his right-hand man and chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, was part of that same group alongside Mindich.
Didn't know a fresh batch of officials inside his own Presidential Office are stealing.
Didn't know the Prosecutor General he personally handpicked was stealing right alongside his staff.
Weird right? 🤔
Just coincidentally - all the world leaders - all meet up in Davos - all made the exact same errors - open borders - COVID - vax mandates - Digital ID - CBDC - green energy - trans - all at the exact same time - all in the exact same direction - just coincidentally.
USAID paid Time magazine $4 million to name Zelensky “Person of the Year”
Bribing the media to brainwash Americans with their own taxes…
What an embarrassment
‼️NEW
24-year-old Roshvin Crofton has been arrested and charged
for allegedly pouring accelerant and burning vehicles parked in the driveway of Canadian Liberal MP Salma Zahid.
Trump faked y’all out yesterday. He didn’t implement Country of Origin Labeling for Beef.
He signed an EO to commission a study that will report back after the election and after we’ve imported 300,000 tons of foreign beef.
I’m the only R who’s actually voted to keep MCOOL.
I was in Donetsk when this beautiful girl was slaughtered by Ukrainian shelling.
Katya was due to travel to St. Petersburg for further ballet training a few weeks later. Instead, she, her ballet teacher (Galina Volodina, a world famous former ballerina), and her grandmother were among 6 civilians slaughtered by Ukrainian shelling in the very centre of Donetsk on August 4, 2022.

I was in the Donbass Palace when it was shelled. Katya was murdered just blocks away.

🇷🇺🇨🇦 Your truck was in a Canadian driveway on Tuesday, by winter it can have Russian plates.
Interpol logged 4,798 vehicles stolen in Canada and later found in Russia between early 2024 and mid-2026.
The RCMP says Russia is the top foreign destination, thieves want the big ones: Rams, Tundras, F-150s, all packed into containers, run through places like the UAE, then sold into a market sanctions emptied and crime filled.
Now Moscow is moving to let some of those cars get registered anyway.
That is the gut punch... a stolen vehicle used to mean a local problem. Now it can mean your keys went across an ocean, and the country that ended up with the truck wants to call it theirs.

🇺🇸Just a reminder with former chief investment officer of Soros Fund Management Scott Bessent - now Sec. of the Treasury - in the headlines recently: Trump appointed not one but TWO senior George Soros fund managers to his first and second administrations.
Not just Scott Bessent, but before that, Steve Munchin (also as Sec. of the Treasury).
This despite the frequent theater Trump performs blaming people like Soros for all of America's problems while Trump himself works hand-in-hand with these very same interests.
This along with appointing representatives or being the puppet of every other special interest from arms and auto makers to big-oil, big-pharma, and big-tech...
... Just like Biden, Obama, and Bush etc. all were.
This is why nothing changes, because while the "distractor in chief" tries to convince you it will, everyone actually making decisions ensures it won't.
‼️EXPOSED: Erika Just Booked Jeremy Boring And Seth Dillon To Preach At Tpusa Faith — Charlie’s Enemies Have Officially Taken Over Turning Point 😱
Erika Kirk just invited Charlie’s enemies to wear the TPUSA logo like a skin suit, while Ben Shapiro circles what is left of the organization Charlie built. They spent a year trying to erase @RealCandaceO and freeze the questions Charlie had about October 7th. Now they have been handed the keys.
Boring and Shapiro already ran the Daily Wire into the ground — Boring's ridiculous flop of a pet project, subscribers sliding, the brand turning into a smear factory with a blue and white flag in the corner. When a parasite starts dying it looks for a new host. Turning Point still has the donor list, the student chapters, and a widow they can stand behind. Erika did not keep the wolves outside. She printed their faces on the invite and called it faith.
Charlie would have never let them in the door. Erika handed them the keys. Any Pastor's who fly to Detroit for that, they are not guarding the flock. They are watching the hen house get eaten and calling it revival.
Shoutout to my gal @Its_KK_1 for sending this to me, FOLLOW Her
Canada’s greatest weakness may be its arrogance, the belief that we remain a global example simply because we keep telling ourselves we are.
We boast about our healthcare, institutions, economy and moral leadership while ignoring the dysfunction, declining services and falling standard of living right in front of us.
Patriotism is not pretending everything is fine. It is caring enough about your country to confront reality, demand better and do the hard work required to rebuild it.
Canada’s reputation cannot survive indefinitely on nostalgia and self-congratulation.
A country that believes it is above criticism will soon find itself beneath the standards it once claimed to represent.
🇺🇸🇮🇷 Tucker is tying OnlyFans money, casino money, and betting markets to the same crowd backing the Iran war.
He points to Leonid Radvinsky, Miriam Adelson, and a Ben Shapiro clip moving from Hormuz odds into a sponsor read.
His point is blunt. The people selling the war are also selling porn, casinos, and bets on the fighting.
You can reject the sermon and still notice the lecture about Iran, then a market pricing the Strait of Hormuz 💀
