Welcome

Donald Trump infamously said to Zelensky of Ukraine “you don’t hold any cards” when he was trying to bully Zelensky into surrendering territory in exchange for Russia’s agreement to stop attacking. Zelensky became a hero by refusing to be bullied by Trump. Some in the American Press portrayed Zelensky as being corrupt for standing up to Donald Trump. We have to laugh at that. We have some world class corrupt politicians in the United States. We can look no further than Joe Biden who became a multi-millionaire in government service.

So why is Trump doing Putin’s bidding? Does he think if he can get Zelensky to surrender, in order to get Russia to stop attacking, he might get nominated for the Noble Peace Prize? Is he willing to throw Ukraine under the bus for vanity purposes? Trump’s meeting with Putin, without Zelensky, would make a good title to a news article, “The Bully and the Butcher Meet to Decide How to Dismember Zelensky”. What is Trump thinking? Is this a meeting to decide how to force Ukraine to surrender? And why pick Alaska for the meeting place? Did not Putin say he would like to have Alaska back? What if Putin likes what he sees in Alaska? Would he say the Tzar stole Alaska from the Russian People, sold it to the United States, and pocketed the money? What if Putin says he wants Alaska back? Would Trump give it to Russian if they promise not to invade Alaska?

Trump’s “You Don’t Hold Any Cards” comment has come back to haunt him. The Ukrainians have proven resourceful in attacking the Russians and have done a lot of damage to Russia’s ability to make war. Russia has been bogged down for three years trying to conquer Ukraine. With a little help from Ukraine’s friends, I think Russia might retreat. I am not sure I would class the United States as Ukraine’s friend right now. It seems the policy of the United States is to advocate for Russia. Russia is attacking civilians while Ukraine is attacking their military. Trump is letting Russia decide how the war is conducted while using withholding of weapons from Ukraine to keep them from attacking the civilian population in Russia. The Russian’s need more pain for supporting the “Butcher of Russia”.

Most European Nations oppose ceding Ukranian Territory to Russia. Let us hope they continue to be united against Trump and Putin’s evil designs. It should be obvious to everyone that giving Russia Ukrainian Territory would not stop their aggression very long. They would soon want the rest of Ukraine and other nearby nations as well. Putin is in a vulnerable position right now. He is bankrupting Russia with this long war. He is sustaining heavy military losses. He cannot replace troops from Russian and must resort to hiring mercenaries. Donald Trump could put a world of hurt on Russian by putting massive sanctions on them. Why doesn’t Trump do that? Without sanctions the only cards Trump holds is to bully Ukraine. If Europe and Ukraine stay united against Trump, will Trump have any cards?

Trump’s progress on some of the things he promised before he was elected bring him high marks such as closing our border to invasion by foreigners, reducing the size of our bloated government and reducing government fraud. His promise to quickly end the war in Ukraine does not meet expectations. Is Donald’s ego the problem in not getting the war ended? Is he so vain as to think he can negotiate with anyone? Would he try to negotiate with the Devil? Putin, like the Devil, will only agree to terms he sets. That is not negotiation on our part, it is surrender. I realize our unwritten national policy since World War II has been to never win another war. When we started getting the upper hand in Afganistan the Democrats realized we might win. They devised a quick retreat to prevent that from happening. We need a Commander in Chief in Donald Trump, not a Commander in Retreat like we had in Joe Biden.

We may be dealing with a mentally ill person in Putin. If so, he probably is not capable of rational thought. He likely believes he will be able to conquer Ukraine and then proceed to an invasion of Europe. Trump needs to stop being played by Putin and put a plan in action to stop Putin in his delusions of grandeur. How many lives might not have been saved if Europe and the United States had attacked Germany when they began invading smaller nations preceding World War II? What is the best plan of action? I am now the expert but obviously negotiation with Putin does not work.

I recently read an article from a national magazine indicating that Russian cannot continue to sustain the long war they are involved in. Sounds like a window of opportunity to me. Why not the US and Nato giving Ukraine the weapons they need to annihilate the Russian troops and mercenaries that have invaded Ukraine? Too many people would die, some might say. Would you feel better if the same amount of people would die over a longer period of time? Would you feel the same if Russian Troop were invading your country? Or would you prefer to be a slave to the possibility you might die?

Trump tried to bully Zelensky, of Ukraine, into ceding Ukraine Territory in exchange for Putin to agree to stop fighting which would only be temporary. That was a crummy surrender deal for Ukraine. Our nation is under one hundred miles from Russian by sea. What happens if Russian decides to invade on the Alaska Coast? Will we cede Alaska to them if they agree to stop fighting?

Trump has lots of tools to use against Russian in the form of sanction as well as sanctions against countries that support Russia in their illegal invasion of Ukraine. Why is he not using them? Putin and his puppets are trying psychological war by threatening to attack the US and Europe. Anyone who worries about those threats will soon be slaves. Russia, at the rate they are conquering Ukraine, will take 100 years to finish the job. How long would they last if Nato would attack them?

Trump’s other problem is the Chinese Communists are propping up Russia. Trump could easily solve that problem by refusing to trade with China. Without United States money pouring in they cannot afford to support Russian and build up their military forces to be the Bully of Asia. Problem solved.

Even Donald Trump’s most ardent admirers would likely admit that Donald Trump has an outsized ego. He likely thinks he can make a good deal with anyone. That is why he keeps trying to make a deal with the Devil, or actually his followers. These followers are the political leaders in Iran, Russia and China. The leaders in Iran are UnGodly Men who have no love for their fellow men or even for their own citizens. Putin, in Russia, dreams of being considered great in the eyes of many in the world by attacking smaller weaker nations and conquering them. Xi wants to take control of the entire world “by any means possible”, if I may use a term popular with the Radical Democrats. They use negotiations as a stalling tool, an opportunity to make promises they do not plan to keep and give concessions they will not keep and get concessions that will give them great advantages. Negotiation with any of them is another word for surrender.

Donald Trump finally lost patience with Iran and bombed their nuclear facilities. When will he lose patience with Putin. Putin seems to be using negotiation with Ukraine as a stalling tool to keep other nations from giving Ukraine more weapons while he continues to attack. There are some claims he plans to attack other nations if he can keep his occupied Ukranian Territories and not have the Ukrainians attacking. With a cease fire he can restock and finish off Ukraine later. Ukraine has been very effective with their drones on Russian military and supply centers diminishing Russia’s ability to make war. At the pace Russia is conquering Ukraine it is estimated it will take Russia 118 years to complete the job.

In spite of Trump telling the Ukraine Leader he holds no cards, Ukraine seems to be holding a lot currently. A negotiated agreement with Russia will not end war. It might end if temporarily in Ukraine, but Putin will invade another nearby neighbor, and war will still go on. Putin needs to be stopped now This seems to be an ideal time to put maximum pressure on Russia. Massive sanctions applied by the United States and European Countries, and if I might use Donald Trump words, “like you have never seen before”. Make it so they have no funds to support war. And with these sanctions give Ukraine enough weapons to annihilate the Russian Military occupying Ukraine. This is just because Russia invaded Ukraine. In spite of Trump’s saying a Russian victory is inevitable, with heavy sanctions and weapons that will make a difference, Russia may have to retreat. They other hope is the Russian people may tire of all the pain Putin is heaping on them and make plans to rid themselves of Putin.

Cancer, left unchecked, eats away at our bodies until it destroys us. We have a form of cancer in our country called hatred that eats away at a civilized society and may eventually destroy our country. One example of that is the growing influence of Marxism in our country. The growth of Marxism Influence is also an example what happens when parents leave the education of their children to so called experts. Many of these experts are most expert at infiltrating our educational system to indoctrinate our children in principles contrary to the teachings of Jesus. One thing that immediately comes to mind is the experts attempting to convince children, in their classes, that unnatural sex is OK. They are introducing books into the classrooms, even to young children promoting their false doctrines.

Marxism if a great program for promoting hate. As you recall from history of Soviet Russia the Marxists convinced enough useful idiots to hate the rulers of Russia and over throw them. Their goal was not to liberate the people, but to gain control over them, which the useful idiots did not realize until they became slaves to the Marxists. Once the Marxists came into power they used every form of brutality from torture, to starvation to murder to control the slaves. I am not defending the former rulers of Russia, I am only pointing out that the citizens may or may not have been slaves under the old order , but definitely were under the Marxists. The Marxist only objective them as now is to gain power and to be able to enrich themselves at the expense of the slaves. The rulers have no love for anyone but themselves.

I see this same hatred playing out in the United States in the growing hatred they have for Donald Trump. They hate him because he is an obstacle to them getting power and money from being in control. Donald Trump’s income while he served decreased, unlike the Democrat Standard Bearer who became a Multi-millionaire in public service. Have you ever heard a Democrat question how Joe became a multi-millionaire in public service? As Trump is vilified by the left from Democrat Politicians and their proxies in the news media we see the hatred culture clearly each day.

Marxists oppose free choice for obvious reasons. The reason is if people have a choice they would vote them out of office. That is why the Communist Leaders only let those they have control over to run for office. The Marxists accused Donald Trump of insurrection. It is not ironic they support the riots because they are the insurrectionists themselves. Democrat Politicians and their proxies in the media support these insurrectionists. They even say they are exercising their free speech rights. That is a lie and of course the leftists know it is a lie. Destroying property and attacking police is not a speech issue, it is an insurrection issue.

These riots are done by people who hate our county along with useful idiots who are too stupid to understand the evil intent of those who use them. The Feds are moving too slowly on identifying those who are financing and training the insurrectionists and charging them with a Federal Crime. I have a hunch that an investigation will lead directly to the Democrats.

Is it ego that causes Donald Trump to think he can negotiate with all of the world leaders? He has been attempting to make a deal with Iran and where did that get him? He is dealing with UnGodly leaders there who have no regard for God’s Commandment “Thou shall not Kill”. They are only seeking power for themselves, with no love for God, their own citizens or other people in the world. They are so evil they have proxies they pay to murder people in other lands. Every thing they do is opposed to the will of God. Donald Trump finally decided to bomb their nuclear production facilities after realizing they would not change course.

Now we turn to negotiating with Russia. Trump’s big emphasis in the past seems to have been to bully Ukraine into ceding the land Russia already illegally occupies in Ukraine to Russia in exchange for Russia to agree to stop fighting. As he has been so fond of saying to Ukraine, “you do not hold any cards”. Great deal for Russia but a raw deal for Ukraine. Putin has been suffering some reverses lately and would love to make that deal in exchange for stopping his aggression against Ukraine. Then he could take a breather and rebuild his depleted weapons and military. Then he could restart his invasion of Ukraine later or instead invade another nearby country.

I am of the opinion that Putin is mentally ill. Mentally ill people are often irrational and if they are a dictator, like Putin, most people will fear confronting them. They do not want to disappear. I will confess that I did not major in Psychology in college so if you like evil people, like Putin, you can attack my credibility. I do not consider Putin a person one could successfully negotiate with.

I am not suggesting Trump should bomb Russian. But there are other remedies Trump could use to bring an end to this war. Trump has been withholding adequate arms to Ukraine because it would prolong a war he hopes will be ended if Ukraine will cede land. But as I said, that end to the war would likely be only temporary. Trump should give Ukraine enough weapons to annihilate the invading enemy. It would be just. They are defending their country against invasion. Russia is illegally invading Ukraine. Trump can also use sanctions against Russia that will seriously damage the Russian Economy. If the Russian People feel enough pain from Putin’s abuse of another country, and the Russians he is sending to die in his evil ambitions, they may depose Putin which would also be just. Trump has remedies for ending this war other that trying to get Ukraine to cede land to Russia and he should use them.

The Ungodly, both within the United States and those outside the United States are involved in an insurrection in the United States. The useful idiots in the United States are so stupid they do not understand the Communists, who use them as puppets, are trying to destroy our freedoms and make the people slaves to enrich themselves. There are also useful idiots, who the Communist Slave Masters sent here to be involved in the insurrection, let in willingly by the Communist Democrats who had political control of the United States for four years. The Communists have so effectively infiltrated the Democrat Party that they have taken over the party. We are now seeing these people, who have total control of the Democrat Party, organizing an insurrection in the United States. In cities from coast to coast their useful idiots are rioting, attacking citizens, assaulting police and destroying property.

The news media has also been infiltrated by Communists who are championing these street criminals. In addition, the legal profession has been infiltrated by these Communists who protect their criminal fellow travelers from prosecution. The Communists are in the minority in the legal profession, but they work together to destroy the United States, which makes them more effective. The majority of the people in the United States oppose the Communists but many Communists are in high positions where they can do evil and hide it from the public.

Communists are masters at lying, even telling the useful idiots who follow them it is OK to lie if it advances their Satanic Plans. The masters of lies, with the support of much of the news media and Democratic Politicians, tell us those who are rioting, burning property, involved in an insurrection, assaulting citizens and the police are exercising their free speech rights. None of the things listed above have anything to do with free speech and everything to do with insurrection and they know it is a lie.

The President, Congress and the Senate need to make it a priority to take down these insurrectionists. We need to immediately arrest those who break laws and have a speedy trial and a quick route to jail. In any city where violence happens, the city should immediately be put under martial law. Any person who then demonstrates should immediately go to jail without any bond. There should also be a Federal Law making the wearing of masks to hide one’s identify a felony. And wearing a mask is not free speech, it is done to hide your identity. The other thing the politicians who are on our side should do is to go after those who are sponsoring the insurrection. That is those who are contributing money to the insurrectionists and those who are directing their activities. Those people should charged with a felony and arrested and held without bail.

California Insurrection

Federal Officials are being attacked by insurrectionists in California. They are also destroying property. Democrat Politicians are painting these insurrectionists, who likely vote a straight Democrat ticket, as peaceful demonstrators. Democrats have embraced Marxism. The Marxist Creed is that it is OK to lie to advance the cause of Marxism, so Democrat Politicians have no problem with telling lies. President Trump is correct in labeling these Democrats as insurrectionist. He is doing the right thing in calling out the National Guard. The Democrats are trying to protect these Democrat Insurrectionists from being held accountable for breaking the law. Trump needs to arrest more of these lawbreakers and arrest those who are financing and directing the insurrectionists. It is likely an investigation would lead directly to the Democrat Party.

Trump’s Big Bill

One of our Federal Agencies claims Trump’s Big Bill will lead to inflation and a huge Government Deficit. My comment to this is, Federal Agencies cannot be trusted to tell the truth or give accurate information. We all know what happened when the Center for Disease Control was giving out information during the Covid Epidemic. It turned out they were telling many lies and suppressing information that exposed those lies. As I understand it, the big bill will continue tax cuts that are expected to expire soon which would cause a big tax hit on the middle class. That is one good thing about the bill. What we taxpayers need is a bill that will decrease government spending. I am hoping the Senate will make that happen.

Pardoning Criminals

The Biden Regime pardoned a lot of criminals which drew a lot of criticism from the Republicans. Now Trump has been doing the same thing. I understand a lot of people who accumulated a lot of wealth have been pardoned. Their is a question of whether the pardon also forgives their debt to those they defrauded. If so, Trump should not be issuing pardons.

The Trump fight with Harvard

Harvard has a reputation as being a giant in intellectual training. My impression is it is an institution run by corrupt Marxist’s to indoctrinate students in Marxist Philosophy. I am on Trump’s side in this fight. I would like to see Harvard closed as a national security threat.

Tariffs

I agree with Trump that too many countries have been taking advantage of the United States through their tariff policies. He is right to negotiate or re-negotiate tariffs with many nations. I do not think he should negotiate with China. Their stated goal is to destroy the United States. Trump is in a position to take down China economically. They could not bully smaller countries or to take on the United States without the money they receive from us with a huge imbalance of trade. This is the time to take down China. With their huge debts, without the United States to bail them out their economy will collapse.

Removing the National Debt Ceiling

Why us Trump supporting that? The Democrats have been supporting doing that for years so they would have no restraints on spending, and they could spend the United States into a total economic collapse. We did not vote for Donald Trump to have a Democrat in the White house. With a total collapse of our economy the Democrats hope to usher in a Socislist Society with them in control. Then they would repudiate the “Capitalist Debt” and start stealing tax revenues to enrich themselves.

We do not need another Biden in the White House. We need a President who will support a balanced debt amendment to the Constitution to keep politicians from bankrupting the country.

War Between Ukraine and Russia

I do not believe Trumps efforts in ending the war is his finest hour. A lot of Republicans have labeled Zelensky as corrupt. The idea of any Politician from the United States accusing a politician from another country of being corrupt is ludicrous. Our politicians wrote the book on how to be corrupt. Trump wanted to end the war, perhaps to get credit for himself, or maybe to get a Nobel Peace Prize for himself. I think he was trying to bully a smaller country into surrender to Russia. And ceding land to Russia seems to be a surrender. Trump’s position seemed to be Ukraine could not defeat Russia and should agree to Russia’s demands. I am not convinced Russia can continue this war much longer. So far Zelensky has refused to surrender to Trump or Putin. Are we looking at a modern-day Winston Churchill? I believe Trump could end this war with severe economic sanctions on Russia which would severely restrict their ability to wage war. Instead, he is withholding military aid to Ukraine? Is that a plan to put pressure on Ukraine to force them to surrender to Russia?

On February 24, 2022, Dictator Putin of Russia sent troops to invade Ukraine because he knew the Western World would not get involved and he figured he could easily over power Ukraine. Putin has been embarrassed, although he would never admit it, as his troops are suffering devastating losses. The Ukrainians are very innovative in using inexpensive drones to wreak havoc on the Russians. With a little more support from the West. Ukraine might be able to send Russia into retreat.

We have a lot of Anti-American Politicians and Journalists who are preaching the false doctrine that Ukraine stated the war by requesting membership in Nato for protection from a belligerent Putin. How dumb can some people be? These fools preach that if anyone tries to defend themselves, they are provoking an attack.

Donald Trump said he would quickly end this war after he became President. I was confident he would since he did not have a habit of retreating when people attacked him. What I expected to happen was Trump would warn Putin that if he would not remove his troops Russia would suffer more serious consequences other than being called ugly names. Instead, Trump seems to be trying to get Ukraine to cede that part of Ukraine that Russian has troops in. Did not the West try to appease Hitler years ago. Everyone knows how that worked out. Putin is not nicer than Hitler. We need a Commander in Chief, not a Commander in Retreat like we had in Joe Biden.

The West should work with Ukraine on annihilation all Russian troops in Ukraine. They have no right to be there. We could, with our allies, put sanctions on Russia that would make it impossible for them to afford to wage war. Our national policy since World War II has been never to win a war. That emboldens people like Putin. We need some policy changes.

As I understand it there is an organization trying to get a balanced budget amendment passed. I also understand that they have been working on this for years. A majority of citizen in the states have to vote for this amendment in order for it to be passed. Very few office holders support this move because most of them want to serve long enough to become multi-millionaires. Their salaries would not get them to point of being multi-millionaires, but by influence peddling they can find ways to have wealth flowing to them. Joe Biden is the poster boy for becoming a multi-millionaire in public service and he will never be charged with any crime. Other politicians like the idea of being on the take without risk.

Donald Trump has been trying to cut spending but look what is happening. Every attempt he makes is fought by those who are getting money from the government from politicians, government grant receivers, charities, government contractors, local governments, universities, Government Workers and any organization or person who has his hand in the government till. Most of the above listed are shopping around for a radical court judge who will make rulings based on his ideology. People who are depending on deficit spending to enrich themselves are causing government gridlock. Even with all that Donald Trump is trying to do government spending will outpace receipts for years to come.

People who love the United States are concerned by the huge unstainable national debt that is still growing. Those who ride the government gravy train care little about what effect it has on others as long as money keeps flowing their way. I appreciate what Donald Trump is trying to do, but as long is spending outpaces receipts it is not enough. We have a government work force we cannot afford. We have more government programs than we can afford. It is time to make real cuts until we balance government spending with tax money coming in. It would be ideal if our citizens could vote on the government budget instead of Congress.

We need a ramp up of prosecution of people who are destroying property and threatening violence trying to intimidate people they do not agree with. The way to stop the anarchy is to put them in jail. The Democrats approach is to not charge these people, and they continue their bad behavior.

The United States gave billions in military aid the Ukraine to defend themselves against the Russian Invaders. No one said it was a loan. Now our dear leaders are pressuring Ukraine to consider that money a loan and they need to pay it back. I think our dear leaders are acting in bad faith. It might be an act of kindness if they would try in some way to do some favors for us, but they have no legal obligation to pay it back.

We do not know what our dear leaders are demanding but I am concerned about some of the rumors we are hearing. One rumor is the Russians can keep the land in Ukraine they now occupy but it would be part of Ukraine. Surely this is a joke. If Russia can keep occupying any part of Ukraine it would no longer be a part of Ukraine. Do we have serious people talking to the Russians?

Putin has some serious problems, and his Iron Rule might be in jeopardy. A coup could be forthcoming. If serious sanctions are placed on Russia they might not be able to continue to finance this unrighteous war. When citizens are suffering financially it might be all that is needed for a quick regime change. It is morally wrong for our dealers to try to force the Ukrainians to cede their land to the Russians. What should be happening is Russia should be forced to withdraw and compensate Ukrainians and the other countries who have given aid. If we allow Putin to have his way it will just be a matter of time before he starts to look at whom to invade next or to invade the remainder of Ukraine. He has recently threatened to invade NATO Countries. Did not the free world learn when they appeased Hitler?

What would Ukraine gain by agreeing to the raw deal our dear leaders are offering? We have already cut military aid. And if Russia started another advance into Ukraine our dear leaders likely would not give them aid. As I understand it, our dear leaders refuse to offer any security deals to Ukraine. Why should Ukraine agree to any talks with the United States? Russia has not suffered enough pain to reverse course. It seems to me the Russians will benefit by keeping the land they have invaded and the United States by receiving mineral rights. And what would Ukraine gain? Maybe a temporary reprieve from being completely taken over by Russia.

The Ukrainians have been able to get the Russian Navy to move their ships further away from Ukraine. If they could ramp up their production of inexpensive drones why not have bombs falling like rain on the Russian Troops. Why not have bombs falling on Russian Cities. Surely turnabout is fair play. Russia needs more pain. We should also make plans for deporting those people who are supporting appeasing the Russians as dangerous to the security of our country. It seems to me our national policy is not to restrain the Russians but restrain the Ukrainians from going after the Russians on their own turf. Apparently, it is OK for the Russians to attack Ukraine but not for Ukraine to attack Russia.
