No Egypt on the Orange Yankee POTUS list – even though Egypt is the country that the killer of the two -Zionists came from; of course if we’re going on banning possible terrorist from countries – US citizens should be banned from leaving the States – as the US is the biggest sponsor of terrorism on the planet.
US President Donald Trump has imposed a travel ban on nationals from seven African countries – Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Libya, Somalia, and Sudan. He cited alleged terrorism risks and high rates of visa overstays in explaining his decision, effective on June 9.
The move was announced in an executive order published on Wednesday as part of broader immigration policy reform that targeted 12 countries; the seven African states and Afghanistan, Myanmar, Haiti, Iran, and Yemen.

What do expect from the Wests failed state – the West destroyed Libya, turning it into a rubble strewn war torn country – where murderous factions hunt down Libyan citizens, and murder them in the name of one thing or another. The same thing is now happening in Syria, both Libya and Syria were fairly stable countries under Assad and Gaddafi – now, not even the dogs on the streets are safe from Western backed murderous terrorists – who roam the countries killing indiscriminately, whilst the countries assets are stripped.
“Dozens of bodies have been discovered in detention centers in Libya, the UN Human Rights Office (OHCHR) reported on Wednesday, calling for an independent investigation into the “grim findings” and abuses at the facilities. Violence, political disorder and lawlessness has blighted the North African country since a NATO-backed uprising toppled longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi more than a decade ago.
The graves were found in the Libyan capital, Tripoli, according to the OHCHR, at “official and unofficial” sites operated by the Stabilization Support Apparatus (SSA), an armed group mandated to bolster government security.
“Our worst held fears are being confirmed: dozens of bodies have been discovered at these sites, along with the discovery of suspected instruments of torture and abuse, and potential evidence of extrajudicial killings,” UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turk said.
The SSA, a powerful militia formally aligned to Libya’s Government of National Unity (GNU), has long faced allegations of “torture and enforced disappearances.”
The findings followed deadly clashes in Tripoli triggered by the assassination of SSA leader Abdelghani al-Kikli – known locally as Ghaniwa – on May 12. He was reportedly shot dead in southern Tripoli, sparking violent confrontations between rival armed factions that left several civilians dead and damaged critical infrastructure, including hospitals.”

Something similar has been happening in Scotland for decades – uni’s such as Edinburgh and Glasgow are safe houses and meeting points for English security service personnel – where they plan out what they’ll be doing in Scotland, these uni’s are nothing more than welcoming staging posts for the foreign nation of England, to plot and scheme.
“Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) has accused the UK-based Oxford Russia Fund of conducting a covert influence campaign in Russian universities aimed at undermining national security. The organization had already been declared ‘undesirable’ by Moscow, a designation that prohibits its activities and implies involvement in hostile propaganda efforts.
The Oxford Russia Fund began operating in Russia in 2006 with the stated aim of supporting higher education in the humanities and social sciences. While it claimed to provide scholarships and academic resources, its work raised red flags for the authorities.
In 2021, the Prosecutor General’s Office banned the organization, citing threats to national sovereignty. According to the FSB, it nonetheless continued to operate subversively, maintaining covert ties with university staff and facilitating the spread of foreign narratives.”

Republicofscotland: You have an embassy and consulates for countrymates in that foreign country. Also, it is (or at least used to be) normal to have diplomatic relations with hostile countries, even at war.
The Russians are rightfully way too professional to shut diplomatic ties with asshole countries. If anyone reduces Russian diplomatic staff then Russia reciprocates, and that’s it.
Don’t let Starmer or anyone talk you into thinking emotionally about these things. That’s the devil’s work. Be calm and professional, like a Russian or Chinese 🙂

Atoning for all the crimes he was both party to or instigator of respectively?
Or just a way to hide another killed French spook who met his Maker in the Ukraine?
Hand-written note? Could easily get the wife to go along with such a made-up story, after all , most of us marry partners who share the same values and morals. Him a spook, likely married to a woman who loves a secret, especially if she thinks or is made to think she is now a patriot for saving France’s National Security . White Helmeted Fake Ambulance-men Founder’s wife in Turkey? She went along with the “barging – in strongmen threw my husband out-the window story”, didn’t she?

Absolutely correct, note that the US has now destroyed the sole secular, westernised, Arab nations : Libya, Iraq and Syria. Yes, I included Libya as Ghaddafi’s religious aims and beliefs did not prevent Libya from being too different to Baathist Syria and Iraq.
The US thus killed off any example of a Sunni Islamic country that a Westerner may feel safe in. It left only “Theocratic” , conservative, “jihadi” Arab/Moslem states like the Gulf Arabs and Turks. Now why is that ?

Canadian Wildfires Kill 2 and Force Over 33,000 To Evacuate So Far
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/06/05/pdjj-j05.html
“The scale of destruction continues to mount as hundreds of structures have been destroyed and toxic smoke now blankets vast swathes of North America [reportedly now, also Europe], creating a public health emergency that extends from the Canadian prairies to the eastern United States.
The response from capitalist politicians at all levels of government has followed the predictable pattern of declaring emergencies while offering wholly inadequate resources to address the crisis…”

The European oligarchs are having to work hard to keep the European countries in line, the failed assassination of Fico, the fixed election chaos in Romania and an unexpected loss in Poland.
In South Korea an insanely risky maneuver by the US-puppet president was foiled and he has now been replaced with a more balanced individual – SK could have been turned into a war fighting dictatorship to attack North Korea and China. Thankfully for the South Koreans and the rest of us. All while the Taiwanese separatist president attempts a semi-legal coup against the legislative majority. Things are not going well for the US attempt to rouse a “coalition of the willing” ready for a Taiwan war trigger. The US Empire is getting desperate as time passes, and even their sanctions and export restrictions are not working.
I cover the details in Warmongers Get A Win In Romania, A Small Loss in Poland, And A Big Loss In South Korea

It’s a bit like Russian “matrioski” dolls:
Behind a terrorist attack there are the Ukrainians.
Behind the Ukrainians are the British.
Behind the British are the Americans.
Three layers of “plausible denial”.

The Thieves Kitchen, (Nato) sees the whole world as its domain – the warmongering gangster club – thinks it has no limits.
“Secretary General Mark Rutte has stated that NATO now considers the Baltic and Black Seas areas of strategic responsibility.
Rutte made the remarks on Wednesday ahead of a meeting of NATO defense ministers. He was responding to a question about rising tensions in the Baltic region, following incidents involving damaged undersea communication cables. In recent months, several undersea cables in the region have sustained damage, triggering speculation that Moscow was behind what was suspected to be sabotage. Western investigators, however, have failed to present any proof that of deliberate state-orchestrated sabotage.”

@ karlof1 | Jun 5 2025 17:23 utc | 23 with the response to my China/empire conflict…thx
I was happy to hear your name come out of Michael Hudson as a source of social planning information about China…well deserved. It was in the most recent Nina/Hudson/Wolff video.
The shit show continues until it doesn’t and I hope there are enough pieces to pick up and put back together when the dust settles from this civilization war about the role of public/private finance in our forms of social organization.

Merz vs trump
Pretty good auto transcript (I checked significantly ) surprised me i a good way
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fD53i4lmk2k
egypt has been a country that we deal with very closely they have things under control the countries that we have don’t
have things under control and why now i can say that it can’t come soon enough
frankly we want to keep bad people out of our country uh the Biden administration allowed some horrendous
people and we’re getting them out one by one and we’re not stopping until we get them out we have thousands of murderers
i hate to I even hate to say this in front of the chancellor because you have a little problem too with some of the
people that were allowed in your country it’s not your fault it’s not your fault it shouldn’t have happened i told her it
shouldn’t have happened what she did but you have uh you have your own difficulty with that and we do and we’re moving
them out and we’re moving them out very strongly uh but it can’t come fast enough we want to get them out we want
to get them out now we don’t want to have other bad people coming into our country by using the word bad I’m being
nice okay question you put out on Truth Social a post
regarding your conversation with President Xi uh can you talk about whether or not you feel that trade talks
trade relations are back on track after appearing to be a little bit off track last week a little bit off track it was
only the complexity it was it’s pretty complex stuff we had a very good conversation with President Xi a little
while ago just before yeah your arrival in fact we just hung up and they said “You’re here.” I said “That’s pretty
good two two great leaders of the world in a very short period of time uh we had
a very good talk and uh we’ve straightened out any complexity and it’s it’s very complex stuff and we
straightened it out uh the agreement was we’re going to have Scott and Howard and
Jameson will be going and meeting with their top people and continue it forward
but no I think we have everything i think we’re in very good shape with China and the trade deal we have a deal
with China as you know but we were straightening out some of the points having to do mostly with rare earth uh
magnets and some other things so those reduced trade tariff rates they remain in effect yeah we have we have the deal
i mean we’ve had a deal we announced the deal and uh we’ll be uh I guess you could say I wouldn’t even say finalizing
it up Scott i would say we have a deal and we’re going to just make sure that everybody understands what the deal is
okay he had a really good conversation by the way he invited me to China and I invited
him here we both accepted so I’ll be going there with the first lady at a certain point and uh he’ll be coming
here hopefully with the first lady of China mr what do you expect from Germany go ahead
please did you talk about uh the Chinese students are you allowing them to come
to to the US no Chinese students are coming no problem no problem okay it’s
our honor to have them frankly look we want to have we want to have foreign students but we want them to be checked
you know in the case of Harvard and Colombia and others uh all we want to do is see their list there’s no problem
with that this is anybody outside of our country international students because when we see some of the people that
we’ve been watching we say “Where do these people come from how is that possible?” No we want to have foreign
students come very honored by it but we want to see their list harvard didn’t want to give us the list they’re going
to be giving us the list now i think they’re starting to behave actually if you want to know the truth
on Russia are you are you willing to put more pressure on Putin to end the war by
imposing new sanctions on Russia and also on China well remember I’m the one that ended Nordstream too going to a
place called Germany come to think i’m sorry I did that i But uh I ended Nordstream too nobody else did and then
when Biden came in he immediately approved it that’s the largest essentially the largest pipeline in the world going to Germany and other
countries uh and by the way we have so much oil and gas you you will not be
able to buy it all i mean you you literally we have so much and I hope we’re going to make that a part of our
trade deal because we have more than anybody else we have actually the most by far in the world probably double what
anyone else has so we’ll work on that i’m sure that’s something we’ll discuss today mr president Mr what do you expect
from Germany and what do you expect from the chancellor well first of all I’m
glad to meet because I’ve been dealing with the chancellor and he’s very uh uh very good man to deal with he’s
difficult I would say can I say that it’s a positive go ahead you wouldn’t want me to say you’re easy right no he’s
he’s a very great representative of Germany i think all we uh want is just going to have a good relationship the
rest will just sort of follow very easily we’ll have a a good trade deal i mean I guess that will be mostly
determined by the European Union but you’re a very big part of that so you’ll be involved but uh we’ll end up
hopefully with a trade deal or or we’ll do something you know we’ll do the tariffs i mean I’m okay with the tariffs
or we make a deal with the trade and I guess that’s what we’re discussing now mr
president let Mr president okay is is Germany doing
enough on defense Mr president is Germany doing enough on defense what defense spending is Germany doing enough
on defense the chancellor The Chancellor wants Is Germany doing enough wants to spend 3.5 well I don’t know i mean I
haven’t discussed it very much i know that you’re spending more money on defense now and uh quite a bit more
money that’s a positive thing i’m not sure that General MacArthur would have
said it’s positive you know he wouldn’t like it but I sort of think it’s good you understand what I mean by that well
I understand he made a statement never let Germany rearm and I said I always
think about that when he says “Sir we’re spending more money on defense.” I say “Oh is that a good thing or a bad thing?” I think it’s a good thing uh but
you know at least a certain point there’ll be a point when I’ll say “Please don’t arm anymore if you don’t mind.” We’ll be watching him i’ll get it
mr president Mr president Biden Mr president yeah biden you said by
uh your your predecessor dismissed uh your autopen investigation he said he made all the decisions during his
presidency i’m curious your reaction to his dismissal well look the autopen I think is the big scandal outside of the
rigged election of 2020 i think the biggest scandal of the last many years is the auto pen and who’s using it i
happen to think I know okay because I’m here and I I’m not a big autopen person
fortunately i’m glad i’m very glad it’s an easy way out but it’s uh it’s a very bad thing very
dangerous you know I sign important documents usually when they put documents in front of you they’re important uh even if you’re signing
ambassadorships or and I consider that important i think it’s inappropriate you have somebody that’s devoting four years
of their life or more to being an ambassador i think you really deserve that person deserves to get a real
signature not an autopen signature and I can tell autopen easily i can look at it
uh like two little pin holes from pulling the paper right you always see the pin holes it’s real easy to tell
about autopen i think it’s very disrespectful to people when they get an autopen signature outside autopen to me
are used when thousands of letters come in from young people all over the country and you want to get them back and you know people use autopens for
that to send a a little signature at the bottom of a letter we have thousands of
them we get thousands of of letters a week and it’s not possible to you know
do I’d like to do it myself but you can’t do it to me that’s where auto pens start and stop but I don’t think I don’t
I I’m sure that he didn’t know many of the things look he was never for open borders he was never for transgender for
everybody he was never for men playing in women’s sports i mean he changed i mean all of these things that that
changed so radically i don’t think he had any idea that what was frankly I said it during the debate and I say it
now uh he didn’t have much of an idea what was going on mr president you shouldn’t be I mean essentially whoever
used the autopan was the president and that is uh wrong it’s illegal it’s so
bad and it’s so disrespectful to our country mr president Mr president will
you leave the your troops in Germany and if I may ask a question to the chancellor to in German for the German
audience how has your first encounter been
uh the answer is yes we’ll talk about that but if they’d like to have them there you know we we’ve have a we have a
lot of them about 45,000 it’s a lot of troops it’s a city when you think about
that’s good economic development they’re highly paid troops and they spend a lot of money in Germany but the relationship
with Germany is very important yeah we’ll we’ll be doing that no problem may I say a few words in German to the
German
public
office Mr president Mr president you speak uh English because you speak such
good English is it as good as your German would you say no do you feel more comfortable tongue no it’s not my mother
tongue but I try to to understand almost everything and to to speak as good as I can very good you know Mr president
you’ve made It’s an achievement actually thank you Mr president mr president thank you Mr president the
criticism that I’ve seen and I’m sure you’ve seen regarding Elon Musk and your big beautiful bill what’s your reaction
to that do you think it in any way hurts passage in the Senate which of course what is your seeking well look you know
I’ve always liked Elon and it’s always very surprised you saw the words he had for me the words of And he hasn’t said
anything about me that’s bad i’d rather have him criticize me than the bill because the bill is incredible it’s the
biggest cut in the history of our country we’ve never cut uh it’s about 1.6 trillion in cuts it’s the biggest
tax cut tax you would say uh people people’s taxes will go way down but it’s
the biggest tax cut in history it’s uh we have we are doing things in that bill that are unbelievable and uh when you
look at what we’re doing for small businesses for people for middle inome people all of the things that we’re
doing nobody’s ever seen anything like it and you know Elon’s upset because we
took the EV mandate and you know which was a lot of money for electric vehicles
and uh you know they’re having a hard time the electric vehicles and they want us to pay billions of dollars in subsidy
and you know I I Elon knew this from the beginning he knew it for a long time ago
that’s been in there that’s been uh I would say JD that hasn’t changed that’s been right from the beginning mr i think
Mr secretary that hasn’t changed at all right from the beginning but I know that it disturbed him uh he wanted and
rightfully you know he recommended somebody from uh that he I guess knew
very well i’m sure he respected him but to run NASA and I didn’t think it was
appropriate and he happened to be a Democrat like totally Democrat and I say
you know look we won we get certain privileges and one of the privileges we don’t have to appoint a Democrat nasa is
very important we have great people general Kaine is going to be picking somebody with our uh we’ll be we’ll be
checking them out and seeing but uh he wanted that person a certain person and we said no and you I can understand why
he’s upset remember he was here for a long time you saw a man who was very
happy when he stood behind the oval desk and uh even with the black eye i said
“You want a little makeup we’ll get you a little makeup.” But he said “No I don’t think so.” Which is interesting
and very nice he wants to be who he is so you could make that statement too I guess look Elon and I had a great
relationship uh I don’t know if it will anymore i was surprised because you were here everybody in this room practically
was here as we had a wonderful send off he said wonderful things about me you couldn’t have nicer said the best thing
he’s worn the hat trump was right about everything and I am right about the
great big beautiful bill we call it a great big beautiful bill because that’s what it is and uh again biggest tax cuts
in history biggest economic development moves anywhere we’ve never done anything like it uh business is spurred and I
don’t know if you’ve seen the numbers but the numbers came out even the CBO which is run by Democrats said that
we’re going to be uh doing you know I’d like you to discuss it the 2.8 8 billion a trillion that CBO this is some a group
of people that are Democrats they’re very hostile to us they just came out
with phenomenal numbers what it does you want to mention that SC yes sir so what what we’ve seen is we keep hearing from
the CBO that there’s going to be a large deficit from the bill which we disagree with but using the CBO scoring uh they
came out and scored the tariff revenue we think it’ll be the minimum of 2.8 8 trillion over the 10-year window which
actually puts the bill in surplus if you include the tariff revenue which they won’t do it gives you a tremendous
surplus but we’re not allowed to use that for some reason they say scoring nobody knows what scoring means maybe a
couple of people but nobody somebody sits in the background they say “Well we’re not going to allow that.” They’re
not allowing other things that we have that are tremendously profitable for our country but if you saw the other day
CNBC they came out with uh numbers and the people on the show very good people
i’ve watched them for a long time they couldn’t believe the numbers how good they are the numbers were incredible
that was personal income and also very low inflation we have very low inflation
we’re down to 2% now and maybe even lower than that and when I took it over it was a mess remember we had the worst
inflation probably in the history of our country they say 48 years but let’s say that’s I think it’s worse than that so
we had the worst inflation in the history of our country under the Biden administration now we’re down to a
beautiful number 2% you’d actually like to keep it there better than zero is 2%
it’s going down maybe to one and 1% is like perfect that’s perfect you don’t want to have zero for certain reasons
that are that nobody is very interested to listen to but we have almost perfect
inflation grocery prices are down everything remember eggs eggs we weren’t
going to buy another egg for the next 20 years they were so expensive right remember you guys all hit me about eggs
eggs have come down 400% everybody has eggs now they’re having eggs for breakfast again but if you look at
gasoline very important i think always the most important because it’s the energy is a big the biggest factor
that’s what happened he screwed up our energy policy and everything went up because energy went up but now energy is
way down and uh they have states where you at $1.98 cents a gallon for gasoline so the
costs have way have come way down and one of the things I ran on was that I
ran on the border we have the best border in the history of our country 99.99% it was uh last week three people
came in two of them for medical reasons we let them in because one of them had a heart attack i think it was a nice thing
to do and one of them had something else so we’ve never had I had very good
numbers for four years but we we really topped it and I want to thank Christie
and Tom Holman they’ve done a fantastic job but nobody mentions that anymore
remember a few months ago the border was a total disaster people were coming in
by the hundreds of thousands of people a day a week a month i mean we had a month
two million people came in in one month the border was being overrun and a lot
of bad people criminals murderers drug dealers we had some of the worst people in the world coming in from all over the
world it’s totally closed and you know what people are coming into our country but they’re coming in legally so we’ve
done a great job elon knew that elon endorsed me very strongly he actually went up and campaigned for me i think I
would have won Susie would say I would have won Pennsylvania easily anyway even if the governor ran the real governor
not the governor from Minnesota who’s I mean he’s a sick puppy that guy that poor guy feels sorry for him but uh they
they made a bad choice with him but if you pick Shapiro or anybody else I spoke
to him recently about his you know his uh house being set on fire which was
terrible but if they picked him I would have won Pennsylvania i won it by a lot uh but I’m very disappointed because
Elon knew the inner workings of this bill better than almost anybody sitting here better than you people he knew
everything about it he had no problem with it all of a sudden he had a problem and he only developed the problem when
he found out that we’re going to have to cut the EV mandate because that’s billions and billions of dollars and it
really is unfair we want to have cars of all types electric we want to have electric but we want to have gasoline
uh combustion we want to have different we want to have hybrids we want to have all we want to be able to sell
everything and when that was cut and Congress wanted to cut it uh he became a
little bit different and I can understand that but he knew every aspect of this bill he knew it better than
almost anybody and he never had a problem until right after he left and if you saw the statements he made about me
which I’m sure you can get very easily it’s very fresh on tape uh he said the most beautiful things about me and he
hasn’t said bad about me personally but I’m sure that’ll be next but I’m I’m very disappointed in Elon i’ve helped
Elon a lot to that end with the president did he I just want to clarify did he raise any of these concerns with
you privately before he raised them publicly and this is the guy you put in charge of cutting spending should people
not take him seriously about spending now are you saying this is all sour grapes no he worked hard and he did a good job and I’ll be honest I think he
misses the place i think he got out there and all of a sudden he wasn’t in this beautiful Oval Office and he wasn’t
and he’s got nice offices too but there’s something about this when I was telling the chancellor this is where it
is people come in here even from Germany they come in and they they walk into the
Oval Office and it’s just a special place it’s you know World War I it started and it ended here and World War
II and uh so many other things everything big comes right from this
this beautiful space it’s now much more beautiful than it was six months ago uh
a lot of good things are happening in this room and I’ll I’ll tell you it’s not he’s not the first people leave my
administration and they love us and then at some point they miss it so badly and
some of them embrace it and some of them actually become hostile i don’t know what it is it’s sort of Trump
derangement syndrome I guess they call it but I we have it with others too they leave and they wake up in the morning
and the glamour’s gone the whole world is different and they become hostile i
don’t know what it is someday you’ll write a book about it and you’ll let us know yeah president speaking of ending
wars in this room you were very critical of Vladimir Putin a couple of days ago
what kind of play is he playing from your perspective what are Well look he’s he he got hit he’s been doing hitting so
I understand it but he got hit hard and I don’t think he’s playing games i think
he I’ve always said he wanted the whole thing i thought he wanted the entire uh
everything having to do with Ukraine that’s something that would have never happened if I were president the
election was rigged i didn’t get to be president but I got to be president now and I think it’s a much more important
presidency other than a couple of things like that the war would have never would
have never happened the war with Ukraine with Putin would have never happened ever not even a chance and it didn’t
happen for four years and it wasn’t thought of i used to talk to him about Ukraine a lot it was the apple of his
eye but he would have never done what he did uh and I think mistakes were made by
him but I think mistakes were made by uh other people the president should have never allowed that war biden should have
never allowed that war to happen if you had the right guy in here that war would have never happened israel would have
never happened with Hamas uh that would have never happened the attack on Israel would have never
happened because Iran was broke they had no money they had no money to give to
Hamas or Hezbollah or anybody else and all of that would have never happened
inflation wouldn’t have happened it was caused mostly by energy and the Biden administration messed up my great energy
policy we were down into the 190 a gallon and it would have never happened
and it was caused by energy and their bad spending on the Green New scam and other things that they spent on but all
of those things would have never happened but maybe most importantly uh the war chancellor with with uh Russia
would never have happened with Ukraine uh it it was something that would have you know I I dealt with Putin a lot
there was no chance zero and you know a lot of people say how do you know for four years it didn’t happen there was
never a chance of it happening and he understood the consequences now uh it’s
a shame i when you see all of those people they came out with a report today that uh that millions of people millions
of people have died much more than people thought and I’ve been saying that for a long time the amount of death in
that war is far greater than the news has been reporting or than frankly that
either side has been reporting it’s a very sad thing and I can tell you just speaking for the chancellor because we
speak about it uh he feels the same way he wants to see it ended would you like absolutely and I’m here Mr president to
talk with you later on on how we could uh contribute to to that goal and we all
are looking for uh measures and for instruments to bring this terrible war
to an end and may I remind you that we are having June 6 tomorrow this is D-Day
anniversary when the Americans once ended a war in Europe and I think this
is in your hand in specific in ours that was not a pleasant day for you no that
was not not a pleasant Well in the long run Mr president this was the liberation
of my country from Nazi Nazi dictatorship true so and we we know what we owe you but uh this is the reason why
I’m I’m saying that America is again in a very strong position to do something
on this war and ending this war so let’s talk about what we can do jointly and we
are ready to do what we can and you know that we gave support to Ukraine and that we are looking for more pressure on
Russia the European Union did and we should talk about that we will talk about it and you know it’s good timing
the numbers for our country are through the roof uh the economic numbers because of the election and because of tariffs
and other things a lot of things but uh we’ve had some of the best numbers we’ve ever had they were reported yesterday
the day before and even today country is doing really well uh I think that one of
the things you’d be most interested in is that six months ago we were having a hard time getting anybody to join our
military i mean they just couldn’t do it the numbers were record low we couldn’t get people to join the military it
wasn’t me this is before I got there the past administration but six months ago a year ago uh the numbers were record low
you couldn’t get them to join that included the police and you couldn’t get
them to join now we just hit the highest number in the history of our country we
think but very close but the highest in the history of our country recruitment
joining the army navy air force marines coast guard police forces all over the
country what did you do for that what what was the reason spirit they love our country again you’re going to do the same thing spirit we have we have great
spirit is back in our country and it’s very simple you know it was only Susie
six months ago right that you got reports you’re the one that released them that you couldn’t get anybody ready
to join the military and now we’re we’re stocked every service now is is packed
and we have waiting lists of people trying to get in as good as we’ve ever had in the history of our country so
that’s an honor that’s a great honor mr president on the war you’ve asked you’ve
had enough go ahead Mr president so would you consider to put more sanctions
on Russia because this discussion is going on now for weeks and months and you tweeted about it once but then
nothing happened yeah when I see when I see the moment when we’re not going to make a deal when this thing won’t stop
uh if that moment yeah it’s in my my brain the deadline when I when I see the
moment where uh it’s not going to stop and I’m sure you’re going to do the same
thing will be very very very tough and it could be on both countries to be
honest you know it takes two to tango but they’ll be we’re going to be very tough whether it’s Russia or anybody
else we’re going to be very tough that that’s a bloodbath that’s going on over there and when I see the moment where I
say “Well they’re going to just keep fighting.” You know I gave the analogy yesterday when I spoke to President
Putin i had a two hour and 15 minute call with him sometimes and this is me speaking maybe
in a negative sense but sometimes you see two young children fighting like
crazy they hate each other and they’re fighting in a park and you try and pull
them apart they don’t want to be pulled sometimes you’re better off letting them fight for a while and then pulling them
apart and I gave that analogy to Putin yesterday i said to
President maybe you’re going to have to keep fighting and suffering a lot because both sides are suffering before
you pull them apart before they’re able to be pulled apart but it’s a pretty known uh analogy you you have two kids
they fight fight fight sometimes you let them fight for a little while you see it in hockey you see it in sports the
referees let them go for a couple of seconds let him go for a little while before you pull them apart and maybe
maybe and I said it and maybe that’s a negative because we’re saying go but
uh a lot of bad blood there’s some bad blood between the two i have to deal
with it and the chancellor has to deal with it it’s incredible the level of there’s a great hatred between those two
between those two men uh but between the waring parties great hatred can you say
and believe apparently that there’s no immediate peace what that there is no immediate peace there will be no Well I
can’t I’d love to have immediate if I could if I could but we don’t we don’t have immediate you know it’s like uh I’d
love to have that i’d like it to start right now we would leave a room if we knew the work ahead we’d we’d say
“Forget about you guys forget forget about trade right we’d say “Let’s go settle it.” Uh if there’s some
additional fighting that’s going to go on you know he was he attacked and they
attacked pretty harshly they went deep into Russia and he actually told me I
mean I I made it very clear he said “We have no choice but to attack based on
that.” and it’s uh probably not going to be pretty i don’t like it i said don’t
do it you shouldn’t do it you should stop it but uh again there’s a lot of
hatred and you know I’m very proud of the fact that with India and Pakistan I
was able to stop that and those are nuclear powers and that would have really that was getting close to being out of hand and uh I spoke to some very
talented people on both sides very good people on both sides and I said you know we’re dealing with you on trade Pakistan
and India right now i said we’re not going to deal with you on trade if you’re going to go shooting each other
and whipping out nuclear weapons that maybe even affect us because you know that nuclear dust blows across oceans
very quickly it affects us and I said if you’re going to do that we’re not going to do any trade deals and you know what
i got that war stopped now I hope we don’t go back and we find out that they started but I don’t think they will they
were both good they were well represented i want to congratulate both countries uh because as you know uh the
leader of India who’s a great guy was here a few weeks ago we had some great talks we’re doing a trade deal and
Pakistan likewise they have very very strong leadership some people won’t like
when I say that but you know it is what it is and they stopped that war now am I
going to get credit i’ll never get credit for anything they don’t give me credit for anything but nobody else
could have done it i stopped it i was very proud of that uh I wish we could do
the same thing with Ukraine and Russia and at some point it’ll happen i
believe that uh and if it doesn’t happen and if I see somebody’s out of line if Russia’s out of line uh we’ll be uh
you’ll be amazed how tough remember this they like to say that I’m friends with R
i’m not friends with anybody i’m friends with you i’m not friends with I want the right thing to happen for our country
for everybody for humanity but I’m the one that stopped the pipeline it’s called Nordstream 2 until I came along
nobody ever heard not one person in this room ever heard of Nordstream too you probably did because it went to Germany
he’s the only one knowing that this was a mistake but I stopped i stopped it yeah and you’ve said that openly it was
a mistake because and I used to go with Angala i say “Well wait a minute we’re spending all this money to defend you
against Russia and then you’re giving Russia billions of dollars a month what kind of a deal is that?” You know which
was uh but you said it better than anybody else i appreciate it but I I’m
the one that stopped it and that was the biggest economic development job if you want to call it that in the history
think of it in the history of Russia that was a massive It’s the biggest pipeline in the world got to go all over
Europe not only to Germany you know the Germany but then they were branching off all over to Europe nobody ever heard of
not one person of you heard of it and I stopped it it was dead and then they say
“I’m friends with Putin i got along with him he respected me i respected him it
would have never happened but I stopped Nordstream too when Biden came in almost the first week he approved it he let it
be built and then they say that I wasn’t tough on Russia putin said to me you
know you’re not tough on Russia you stopped the biggest most important job we’ve ever done you stopped it and Biden
came in and he let it be built and I’ll tell you what I I will never forget the day I had it totally stopped they
weren’t building they gave up on it they weren’t able to and then Biden came in and he let him build i couldn’t believe
it okay one or two questions more please any questions any question for the chancellor he would continue for the
chancellor um that would be I like his answers much better
would you continue to support Ukraine yeah I’m I’m with Ukraine we just signed
a big deal on rare earth with Ukraine and uh we wanted I want to You know what
i’m I’m for stopping killing really that’s what I’m for again a war that
would have never started should have never started i want to see the killing stuff we spent $350 billion much more
than Europe but Europe spent a lot also and they spent way over a hundred billion so you’re talking about close
to$500 billion dollars went into that whole thing and it’s not even the money and I know with you too it’s it’s a lot
of money but it’s the death that’s being caused we went to the Middle East i went
last week to the Middle East we took in 5.1 trillion that’s many many times
that’s 30 40 times 50 times more than what we’re talking about it’s 5 think of
that $5.1 trillion of investment with one trip that lasted four days uh so
it’s not the money it’s a little the money but not the money the big thing the big thing is the death the death of
and and really the decimation you you’ve lost a whole culture you know Ukraine had the most beautiful turrets they call
them turrets that little towers beautiful towers the most beautiful in the world they’re all now laying on
their side blown to smitherines it’ll never happen again they’ve taken away the culture of a of a country they’ve
taken away the heritage of a country it’s a terrible thing but most importantly again is the death
5,000 plus people a week soldiers are being killed he doesn’t want that and I
don’t want that one more table thank you mr president do you support the Graham
bill on putting high tariffs on China but they’ll be guided by me that’s the
way it’s supposed to be they’re going to be guided by me no I haven’t looked at it it’s a bill on sanctions etc
uh when it I’m a very quick study at the right time I’ll do what I want to do uh
but it could very well be okay i’ll have to see but uh they’re waiting for me to decide on what to do and I’ll I’ll know
maybe very soon it’s a harsh bill yeah very harsh
take one more i would like to have a question to the chancellor as well because um do you agree with the analogy
the president made on the war between Russia and Ukraine as being a fight between two kids is that how you view
that as well and how do you what do you actually want the US president to do in
this well I think we we both agree on on this war and how terrible this war is
going on and we are both looking for uh ways to stop it very soon and uh I I
told the president before we came in that he is the key person in the world
who can really do that now by putting pressure on Russia and uh we will have
this debate later on again how we can proceed jointly between the Europeans and the Americans and I think we are all
in we are having the duty to do something on that now to stop it after
three and a half years which is really terrible look at the kids the the the kids which were uh kidnapped from from
Ukraine to Russia this is this is all terrible and so we are talking about
instruments measures what we can do and my personal view is clear on that we are on the side of of Ukraine and we are
trying to get them stronger and stronger just to make Putin stop this war and this is our this is our approach we get
satellite pictures of the warfield and you don’t even like to look at them
right it’s terrible so it’s bodies arms heads uh legs all over the place you’ve
never seen anything like it it’s It’s so ridiculous and this is only by Russian weapons against Ukraine this had never
happened with Ukraine weapons against Russia never ukraine is only targeting
military targets not civilians not private not instrument not energy
infrastructure so this is the difference and that’s the reason why we are trying to do more on Russia how to stop this
war well in this case I’m talking about the battlefield you know the soldiers on soldiers but you could also say that too
with the cities you know the cities are being hit also so it’s a terrible terrible thing right one somebody said
autopan did I hear the word autoen because I think it’s the biggest scandal maybe in the last hundred years in this
country so when I hear that word I think it has to be discussed because uh the
fake news will try and you know hide it and we can’t do that I’m asking you have you uncovered any evidence that anything
specific was signed without President Biden’s knowledge or by other people in the administration acting illegally well
I don’t think Biden would know whether or not he signed it i’m asking if you’ve uncovered any of No but I I’ve uncovered
you know the human mind i was in a debate with the human mind and I didn’t think he knew what the hell he was doing
so you know it’s just one of those things one of those problems we can’t we can’t ever allow that to happen to our
country the danger our country was in and I know some of the people that worked with him radical left horrible
people and I could give you the name of some of the people that used the autopen because I’m here and I asked questions
about people that were here also there are a lot of people that were here when that happened and they’re here right now
and they’ll answer your question very accurately uh but I know some of the people that used that auto pen and those
are not the people that had the same ideology as Joe Biden these were radical
left lunatics that used that and they didn’t get elected he didn’t get elected
either actually thank you very much everybody
thanks guys thank you

Musk made a huge mistake associating with this awful character. Nevertheless, I predict the stalwart diehard fox news religious right boomers will stick with the populist pied piper and rationalize Epstein’s behavior and rationalize patronage by their savior, the loudmouthed new yorker.

I think Musk went too far with this Epstein thing (even though it’s true, as I read a long time ago; they were good friends, they partied together);
I think that given Trump’s age and position, this kind of attack from Musk is an own goal!

Can anyone corroborate this?

A reliable and high-ranking source has told me that in recent days, an agreement has been reached between Iran and the U.S., with the mediation of the United Arab Emirates, in the long negotiations that began in recent months, which are the result of years of turbulent relations. Well, Iran would be allowed to implement the development of nuclear power for civilian use in exchange for renouncing its nuclear programme for military use. In return, Iran would have secured the imprisonment of Bibi Netanyahu in about 7-8 months, with a major international impact.[emphasis mine]

For anyone tired of reading about the Trump-Musk bromance falling apart so spectacularly, may I offer something rather more indelicate?
Tackling Britain’s Rent Boy Menace

The [British] Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has said recently that there may be an ‘issue with young boys and men’ around toxic masculinity.
Listen to this article
CSM EDITORIAL
The Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has said recently that there may be an ‘issue with young boys and men’ around toxic masculinity.
Three fires. Three arrests. One Prime Minister.
Maybe he has a point.
The sequence is as follows:
May 8, 2025 – A car, once owned by Sir Keir Starmer and since sold to a neighbour, is set alight in Kentish Town.
May 11, 2025 – The front door of a flat in Islington, where Starmer once resided, is similarly ignited.
May 12, 2025 – A fire erupts at the entrance of another Starmer-linked property in Kentish Town.
The Metropolitan Police, in their infinite wisdom, have classified this as a matter for the Counter Terrorism Command—though whether this is due to genuine concern or an institutional reflex to label anything vaguely mysterious as ‘terrorism’ remains unclear.
Three men have been detained. Among them: Roman Lavrynovych, 21, a Ukrainian national (above centre) and, we are told, a builder and roofer by trade. The others—a 26-year-old seized at Luton Airport and a 34-year-old plucked from Chelsea.
There is a rumour these striking young individuals were working as rent boys …
… The [democratically elected] Prime Minister should answer these questions:
Why should the Prime Minister’s properties attract such singular attention from Ukrainian youths? If this were the work of disgruntled constituents, one might understand it. But foreigners? The implications are… inconvenient.
What manner of leader finds himself so vulnerable to the grievances of such men? A Prime Minister ought to be compromised by bankers or spies, not by—if the rumours contain even a grain of truth—discontented companions of the night.
Why the theatrical display of marital bliss during the election, if other entanglements might explain these fires? After all, wives make excellent screens, but smoke eventually curls around the edges.
Lavrynovych denies wrongdoing. One wonders what business a Ukrainian builder had loitering about the Prime Minister’s former homes at unsociable hours. Was he taking measurements? Admiring the brickwork? Or does Starmer’s taste in home improvements extend to exotic labour of another sort? …

At least Prince Andrew was, erm, discreet enough to go the island of Little Saint James in the US Virgin Islands for dalliances with (now very discontented) companions of the night.

Meanwhile in Haiti:

Haitian gangs threaten to topple last government stronghold
Self-defence groups are the only people standing between interim council and total collapse
Jun 1 2025
As gangs lay siege to the final stronghold of Haiti’s crumbling government, its inhabitants are desperately planning to take flight.
“They come at night to steal everything they can, setting fires to hold their positions,” said a business owner preparing to pull his family and 15 employees from capital Port-au-Prince. “We are right in the middle of it.”
Almost all of the capital is now under the gangs’ devastating control, while the interim presidential council is wracked by infighting and holed up around the affluent hillside enclave of Pétion-Ville.
But the walls are closing in. A band of self-defence groups, led by a police officer known as Samuel, are the only people standing between the council and total collapse, humanitarian officials say.
The gangs have been tightening their grip on Haiti ever since the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse in 2021. After years of warring against each other, they united in February last year to tear down acting prime minister Ariel Henry’s government.
They have since launched a brutal advance that has turned the capital into a hellscape.

Revelation Of Epstein Investment Tied To Peter Thiel Adds To Growing Concerns About Palantir
Following a scathing report from The New York Times implicating Palantir Technologies at the core of an expanding US surveillance stated enhanced with the power of Artificial Intelligence powered by the company, the PR nightmare for co-founder Peter Thiel continues.
The NYT continued its offensive against him by publishing another exposé revealing previously unknown ties between Thiel and “diseased” serial sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
According to the NYT report, Epstein funneled $40 million into another firm founded by Thiel named after The Lord of the Rings lore: Valar Ventures.
According to the report, Epstein made the $40 million contribution to 2 separate funds managed by Valar Ventures between 2015-2016.
Since making the contribution, the return on that investment has seen it grow to nearly $170 million.
That $170m holding now stands as the single largest asset of the over $200 million still belonging to the Epstein estate almost 6 years following his supposed demise.
Epstein’s previously unknown investment managed by the venture capital firm is far from the first instance of his ties to Thiel.
According to The Wall Street Journal, Epstein scheduled multiple meetings with Thiel in the run-up to the 2016 Presidential Election.
The WSJ report went on to reveal that Epstein attempted to arrange meetings between Thiel and real-estate mogul Thomas Barrack with former Russian United Nations Ambassador Vitaly Churkin*. Thiel also scheduled several meetings with Epstein at his New York home around that time.
The meetings arranged for Thiel by Epstein coincide with the Palantir co-founder’s most visible entry into the American political discourse when he made his support for then Presidential candidate Donald J. Trump known. Since 2016, Thiel has remained one of President Trump’s most influential supporters.
That support has led to the expansion of Palantir within the Trump administration, as conveyed by the growing list of federal contracts the technology firm has been awarded since the President’s return to the White House for his second, non-consecutive term.
To date, Palantir has been awarded over $900 million in federal contracts by the second Trump administration.
The bulk of that total came less than 2 weeks ago when the Department of Defense awarded Palantir an enormous $795 million contract.< blockquote>

Here’s the most outstanding and shocking chapter in the autobiography of Frank Rizzo, which I will remember always from the day it happened. There is one surviving member of MOVE alive today. Goggling Frank Rizzo and the bombing of MOVE, you get the following AI generated:
“Frank Rizzo, the former police commissioner and later mayor of Philadelphia, was a key figure in the events leading up to the 1985 bombing of the MOVE communal house. The bombing, which resulted in the deaths of 11 people, including five children, was a highly controversial event that sparked intense debate about police tactics, racial tensions, and the city’s response to the situation.
Frank Rizzo’s Role:
Police Commissioner:
As police commissioner during the 1970s and 1980s, Rizzo’s hard-line approach to law enforcement and his often controversial actions contributed to the existing tensions between the city and groups like MOVE
MOVE Conflict:
Rizzo’s department was involved in several confrontations with MOVE, including the 1978 siege of the MOVE headquarters, which further escalated tensions.
1985 Bombing:
Rizzo’s administration authorized the police action that resulted in the bombing, including the decision to drop the bomb and the subsequent failure to control the fire that ensued.
Key Points about the MOVE Bombing:
Background:
MOVE was a black radical organization with a history of conflict with Philadelphia authorities. They were seen as a threat by many in the community and the police.
Siege and Firefight:
A lengthy siege and firefight between MOVE members and police preceded the bombing. Police had barricaded MOVE members in their home and initiated the bombing.
Controversy:
The bombing was heavily criticized for its devastating impact and the perceived overreach of the police. Several investigations were conducted, and the city’s four top officials were cited for negligence and incompetence.

69 too scents –“Haiti is such a wreck. It is no longer newsworthy.”
No, Haiti news is worth much more than 2$ if you can find news on the country outside the received narrative of the US govt and msm. A remarkable country that has survived for hundreds of years under the chains of colonialism. There are no people on earth who knows more about US domination. Bypassing for here the history that brought Haiti to this state, the economic and political destruction wrought by the Clinton administration which went so far as to kidnap the popularly elected three times, President Aristede, already deposed once by a US- manufactured coup then elected again by a 73 % popular vote that time to be literally kidnapped and forced onto a plane then dropped in Africa. Now the country is being run by an unelected President appointed by a Presidential Council supported by the US, France, Canada, Kenya and some Caribbean players.
Gang leader, Jimmy Cherizier, has formed many of the gangs into the G9 group which is interested in seizing the power from the illegitimate govt. Cherizier has declared that the G9 gang collective “would lead an armed revolution against Haiti’s business and political elites. He described the G9 as filling the void left by government weakness and a force ‘to deliver Haiti from the opposition, the government, and the Haitian bourgeoisie.'” (Wiki). The G9 does not accept the authority of an illegitimate Haitian President, one appointed by foreign powers.

Well if its okay in Latvia – then I’m all for banning any politician at the Scottish parliament (Holyrood) from speaking the foreign language of English – English – is of course a colonial language forced on Scotland centuries ago.
“A Latvian MP has been kicked out of a parliamentary session and could face further punishment for speaking Russian in violation of the legislature’s new rules, the head of the assembly has said.
The incident occurred on Thursday during discussions in the Saeima on a declaration to “eradicate the consequences” of the alleged “Russification” of Latvia, which authorities in Riga claim took place under Soviet rule from 1940 to 1991.
Since the escalation of the Ukraine conflict in 2022, Latvia and its Baltic neighbors, Estonia and Lithuania, have intensified their efforts against alleged Russian influence. Riga has implemented travel restrictions targeting Russian citizens, banned vehicles with license plates from the country, and introduced a mandatory Latvian language test for long-term residents of Russian origin. Thousands who failed or refused the exam have been deported. The Kremlin has denounced the measures as “blatant discrimination against Russians.””

Starmer the Zionist loving, Neo-Nazi adoring PM – is using that old dog whistle of immigration to force ID cards on every Brit – its in the making and the British government will hold all the details on you as will Palantir, Washington and Tel Aviv.
“Downing Street is exploring a proposal to introduce digital ID cards for every adult in Britain in a move to tackle the UK’s illegal migration crisis, according to reports.
The new “BritCard” would be used to check on an individual’s right to live and work in Britain, with senior No 10 figures examining the proposal, The Times has reported.
The card, stored on a smartphone, would reportedly be linked to government records and could check entitlements to benefits and monitor welfare fraud.”

@89 RoS
“Whitehall is exploring a proposal to force facial recognition digital ID on every adult in Britain and abroad in a move to tackle the UK’s emmigration crisis, according to what we were asked to report.
The new “BitchCard” would be used to govern an individual’s right to live and work, with senior No 10 figures sold on the proposal. The Times has reported something.
The card, glued to a smartphone, would record and automatically report to government surveillance initiatives, which could benefit entitlement cheques and legitimise British welfare fraud.”
2025 fwiw
