From when important stuff gets done by executive order.

So free speech is just for Musk and MAGA?

Any thoughts on the possession of guns?

More delay.

Clearly China’s military parade, and Putin’s presence is a not-so-subtle threat to the rest of the world.

China is playing Risk.

It's also filling Jews across the globe with shame for what a Jewish state is doing. Where is the memory of the Ghettos? And worse still, committed by "ultra-orthodox" Jews who should know better.

No. That’s what he wants NATO to think. It’s absolute BS. Russian economy is about to explode and NATO ramping up spending will accelerate that and counter future mischief

All that remains to be seen is who will emerge as the fifth most powerful leader behind Trump, Putin, Xi and Von der Leyen, in Asia. Turkey's Erdogan is a pretender to the throne. India's Modi reckons himself as a player.

China plays the long game, builds its armies, allying with Russia and North Korea, thus pitting it against the US, In private China is surely thankful for Russia's aggression, as it justifies its own arms industry.

Putin believes that the downfall of the west is the key to the rebirth of the Russian empire.

And the war between Israel and Iran is also a drain on US resources, and a cynical smoke screen for Russia’s ongoing campaign in Ukraine.

And Russia befriends Iran to use its drones in Ukraine. While Iran agitates to rule the Middle East. This could benefit Russia by putting strain on the US-Israeli relationship, forcing the US to choose sides, support Israel, exposing it to potentially more Islamic terrorism.

What mutually beneficial deals might Putin and Trump have discussed at their private meeting in 2024?

Trump and the US stand to benefit from the war in Ukraine by selling arms.

And Trump's failure to stop the war as "promised", his threat to retract from NATO, and obliging European countries to increase their spending, plays right into the Putin playbook.
