This is one of the most important exposés published in WSJ in several years, and it derives from intercepts and analyses by foreign intelligence services studying the conduct of Trump and his inner team. It's first and foremost a wake up call to the people of the United States.
Make Money Not War: Trump’s Real Plan for Peace in Ukraine
The Kremlin pitched the White House on peace through business. To Europe’s dismay, the president and his envoy are on board.

"Over the past 100 years, Russia has attacked 19 different countries — some of them 3-4 times — and none of these countries, including Ukraine, has ever attacked Russia." - EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas.

The other 18 should drop it as well. Let Trump meet with himself, he’s the only one he cares about anyway.
Trump: “South Africa has demonstrated to the World they are not a country worthy of Membership anywhere,”
Instead, I presume that most of us reckon that Trump has demonstrated that he in not worthy of presence anywhere but in jail.

3/5 The leaks confirm what we have seen for months:

Trump pressures Ukraine repeatedly but almost never pressures Russia. That imbalance speaks volumes.

He is not negotiating for peace; he is negotiating for Putin

1/5 The Witkoff leaks prove that Trump does not want peace in Ukraine as soon as possible, no matter what the deal looks like, despite what many claim.

He wants peace on Russia’s terms, no matter how long it takes

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

Oh wow seems the story behind the Trump Capitulation Plan may be even worse than suspected
It appears that somebody instructed Marco Rubio to go along with the story unfolding and it looks to me that this resulted from the following chain of events. I will lay it out here:

Jeg er av den oppfatning at ord betyr noe. Vi bør ikke si Russlands «president», vi bør si diktator. Vi bør ikke kalle Trump-planen en «fredsplan», men en kapitulasjonsplan.

De som underkaster seg Trump ser ham som sterk, men det de opplever er sin egen svakhet. Trump er et får i ulveklær, og ulver oppfatter forskjellen. Ingen i Moskva holder Trump for å være sterk.
-Timothy Snyder
"Diejenigen, die sich Trump unterwerfen, nehmen ihn als starken Mann wahr, doch was sie erleben, ist ihre eigene Schwäche. Trump ist ein Schaf im Wolfspelz, und Wölfe erkennen den Unterschied. Niemand in Moskau hält Trump für stark." Timothy Snyder
Timothy Snyder über Donald Trump: Der schwache "starke Mann" der USA
Die Zerstörung der Institutionen schwächt den US-Präsidenten. Seine Stärke besteht nur in der Unterwürfigkeit seines Publikums im eigenen Land. Russland und China wissen, dass die Zeit für sie spielt

The plan, drafted without Ukraine’s knowledge by Donald Trump’s special representative, Steve Witkoff, and Vladimir Putin’s envoy, Kirill Dmitriev, checks off many of the maximalist demands familiar from earlier Russian proposals, and adds a few more

Til alle som eventuelt var skeptiske til Norgespris så kan vi glede alle med at nå stiger både salget av svømmebassenger og hytter! Dette må da kunne sies å være vellykket bruk av vanlige folks skattepenger.

Norgespris og rentenedgang driver hyttesalget oppover
Hyttesalget hittil i år ligger 9 prosent høyere enn samme periode i fjor. Flere peker på norgespris som en viktig årsak.

President Zelenskyy came to the White House, looking for help from his longstanding ally.

He was ambushed, humiliated and berated for not being grateful enough.

Prince Bone Saw bin 9/11 came to the White House, for the first time since he ordered the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

He was revered.
