On the Precipice
The President is already at a crucial moment of his Presidency. Congress needs to legislate his agenda very soon. Intricate trade deals that normally take at least a year are up against a July 8th deadline. The peace deal that Trump wanted for Ukraine and Russia has been rejected by Vladimir Putin, which has driven the US & Ukraine back into a wartime alliance. Iran is on the verge of facing a massive military strike.
All of the above comes under pressure from America's evil left and its servants: the media and activist district judges. The left is also trying to turn out protests and polls which underrepresent Trump supporters. The stock market has been an accidental tool as well.
Scott Bessent told Brett Baier the other night that the first actual trade deal is only weeks away, not months. Trump has thus far stood for everything he promised. As a matter of fact, he just ended a rule that let cheap Chinese goods bypass U.S. tariffs. The move closes a loophole, the “de minimis” exemption, that many U.S. businesses say gave China an unfair advantage.
I'm hoping he succeeds. He will go down as one of our greatest Presidents.
In the news:
Trump removed Michael Walz from his role as national security adviser and nominated him as U.N. ambassador. Trump said Secretary of State Marco Rubio would serve as his interim national security adviser. Currently Rubio is acting administrator of U.S.A.I.D. and acting archivist for the National Archives, as well as being the Secretary of State. I guess taking on a job with dedication & humility was the way to go.
On YouTube, the C.I.A. is posting videos that aim to recruit Chinese spies.
In England, Nigel Farage, the leader of an anti-immigration party and a longtime proponent of Brexit is again becoming popular. His party just won a parliamentary special election. The world is moving inexorably to the right.
A Kenyan lawmaker was gunned down in Nairobi by a motorcycle-riding assassin.
Trump signed an executive order to end federal funding of NPR and PBS.
Demonstrators marched in big cities like New York and Chicago for the left's "May Day" opposition to Trump.

Good morning and welcome to the news.
Last night Jesse Waters (Fox News) met and introduced "Big Balls."
he will go down as the most reviled POS/POTUS in the history of the US for his abuse and abandonment of his duties.
Good to know you recognize Biden's position in history.
Nope!
If nothing else, he saved us from the insane horror of a Harris presidency
What? There is a Congress? I thought Trump didn't need Congress, he hasn't since he took over the reins of American governance.
It is very divided and has been since Obama.
"very divided" is an understatement. Unfortunately the extent of the divisiveness stands in the way of progress.
Do you not know Buzz, many people in this country are afraid of progress? Too much change for them to handle.
Not only that, from what I've noticed, many prefer for their nation to go back to The Middle Ages. I only want to go back to the early 1950s, when people had to think for themselves, before computers and internet and social media platforms that spread misinformation, disinformation, and outright lies. Where are Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite when we really need them? Unfortunately, today their honesty, sincerity and dedication to the ACTUAL truth (some members here are trying to redefine its meaning) would be laughed into oblivion.
I don't get the regressive mentality some have. I think they have a more romanticized idea of the past. They can't seem to accept times change and society marches forward.
He wrote up 7 articles of impeachment in his spare time:
His work at DOGE is almost done. We were lucky to have him.
I feel like he will still be behind the scenes, much like Obama and Rice was during the last 4 dementia years
Hopefully, he will still direct the effort but I think sufficient direction of the people he chose will keep it front and center.
I still think Obama was pulling the strings of the Biden puppet
No doubt he was..
He is an amazing individual.
He's a nazi.
And to think so many people are pissed at him for merely identifying the fraud previous administrations let slide.
Those would be the ones that used different organizations for their slush funds.
He was once the hero of the environmental crowd. Then he joined forces with Trump, and they lost their minds.
Who he works with is the only thing that changed and they lost their minds.
They are childlike.
You're being nice.
It's early.
The world is moving inexorably to the right.
We shall see, there are 12,000 local elections in G.B. coming up. As to the 'victory', it was a 6 vote squeaker and the incumbent had been convicted of battery.
The incumbent wasn't running and the election was in one of the safest labour districts in the country. Is losing that safe of a district in a close election to a party with four other MPs a good result?
And the Conservative Party of Canada was a shoe-in to win a vast majority. Shit happens and Nigel got lucky. Btw, Nigel is England's version of Hungary's Viktor Orban, neither are to be emulated.
They saw what Merkel did to Germany.
Marco Rubio announced last night that due to President Trump's heroic success in getting a deal for the US to extract minerals from that country 894 million Ukrainian lives have been saved.
He also didnt confirm or deny he will be attending a Moscow military parade on May 9th.
One can never add too many zeros to placate el presidente.
Sources? We don't need to stinking sources......
And what would be a reliable source in your 'disinterested' opinion?
Where did you dream that he was even thinking about that?
Trump's approach to Ukraine was a pretty good ruse to walk away from the quagmire. Now Donnie Boy aspires to become Joe Biden?
Don't tell me Trump doesn't understand that Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Vladimir Putin are fighting over NATO? Trump has pulled the United States back from NATO. Trump made brilliant moves to step back and walk away from Biden's quagmire.
What Trump is doing now is even worse than Joe Biden's bigly screw up that dragged the United States into an unwinnable war. Trump is poised to fuck over the United States big time. Now the only way Trump can be a peace maker in Ukraine is to break up NATO. And Europe won't let that happen. Right now, Zelenskyy and Putin are playing NATO and the United States against each other. Trump has deliberately returned the United States to its proper role of being the last line of defense. What that means is the United States doesn't take the lead in European affairs.
Trump dumped Biden's mess in Europe's lap and now Trump wants to take it back? That's even more idiotic than how Biden mishandled the situation and dragged the United States into this quagmire.
Wish I could disagree with you; but unless there is a deal behind the scenes going on that will end the conflict soon- Trump has sentenced the US to back Ukraine forever.
Think Putin is going to back down now? Ukraine joining NATO/EU was what started this whole damn mess. Putin warned everyone time and again that flipping Ukraine would start a war; and the dumb fucks Obama and NATO didn't listen- backing a coup of a duly elected pro Russian President. Everything since then has been completely downhill.
Think Zelenskyy has any reason to now that the US is locked in to making sure Ukraine doesn't fall? He has stated repeatedly he is more than willing to fight to the last Ukrainian standing that isn't him, his family, or his cronies. Wonder how much in US tax payer dollars he has set aside for the them to flee once he runs out of fighters? It will be long before Russia does.
Leftists win. We are backing a bunch of fucking fascists in Ukraine against a bunch of fucking fascists in Russia. In the end the fascist will win.
The United States doesn't need to be involved. Whether or not the conflict ends is Europe's business, not ours. The role of the United States is to sit in reserve. Biden reversed the roles, placing the United States on the front line of a European conflict while Europe sat in reserve.
The conflict between Ukraine and Russia has always been about NATO since the USSR fell apart. NATO began trying to push into Ukraine in the 1990s. Ukraine is a made up country, like Yugoslavia, following Stalin's annexation of territory early in WWII. The current war is really about fighting Bill Clinton's war to prevent the breakup of Ukraine and reunification of Polish territory with Poland and Russian territory with Russia. Clinton set the stage for NATO intrusion into Ukraine.
Trump may think he's smart swapping minerals for munitions. What happens if the Ukrainian separatists won't accept the mineral deal? Even if there is a peace deal, the separatists may still align themselves with Russia. And oppose the presence of the United States in Ukraine. The Ukrainians are a divided people fighting a civil war.
What will be the role of the United States in resolving internal Ukrainian conflicts after joining the EU? The EU is not NATO; that's Europe's business and not our business. So, even if Ukraine doesn't renege on the mineral deal, the EU likely would.
I understand Trump's desire to recoup Biden's expenditures for a lost cause. I understand Trump's desire for Ukraine to pay for any support that the United States provides. But the reality is it's a stupid move. The United States should just write off the loss and walk away. Ukraine is a failed venture that will only be a growing liability for the United States.
And yet you call yourself objective.
