Straight From President Trumps Mouth !!!

Interesting note the video is 33 seconds long, 33 degrees of freemasonry, is he trying to tell us whom is behind the war?.

GET THIS STUPID WAR FINISHED!!!

I find this comment quite disgusting in its calculated lying hypocrisy. The picture painted by DT is a Bizarro world of reality inversion - based on deliberately false assumptions that we are being asked to accept. Objectively; the Ukr war was strategically caused, sustained, escalated by the US -- including DT himself from 2016-2020.

And the war would have finished, could be finished, in a matter of days, if the US unilaterally withdrew its support, and stopped the covert pressure that continues the war. Trump's "peace" is that the EU and UK should continue the Ukr war against Russia (and, even more so, against Ukr itself), while the US gets resources freed for prosecuting other wicked mischiefs, elsewhere in the world.

It is a sad reality that it is easier to destroy than to create; you get more bang for your buck with subversion than with construction.

The declining US Empire is clinging to its dominance by a systematic program of using its declining resources to fuel destruction and war in many other places - most recently India-Pakistan... A strategy by which, keeping everyone else weakened and distracted, it is intended that the US remains relatively powerful - but at the cost of the whole world (including the US) collapsing into poverty, starvation, disease, misery. The end point is, presumably, the US as the undisputed emperor of a rancid chaotic slum - but still emperor...

No...... I don't think that is Trump's Peace...

Trump, although he is the President, is forced to work within a huge, established organization called the United States of America - that for many years - maybe even since it's conception, has been a de facto base for the Globalists - probably intimately connected to the Freemasons....

When Trump said he wanted to be a Peacemaker and a Unifier I believe him - but I get that it is a work in progress and that he has many enemies within who are trying to stop him -

During his first term as a President and first time as a politician he got pressurized and pushed around by the established institutions - but he then had 4 years to plan + get his act together - and that's what we're seeing now - although he is still getting spiritual and political push back....(and isn't going to get 'it' 100% right 100% of the time.... ?)

There's idealism and there's realism - Trump is operating in the real world and, IMO, doing a great job, under the circumstances...

The 'wicked mischiefs' aren't coming from him.....that's Satan's department -

That's how I see it, anyway.....

Honestly, I'm not sure how I feel about POWs being 'showcased' doing these friendly proclamations. Are they doing it really with honesty? Are they forced? We can never be too sure, can we? Maybe some so, others so. Just my two cents about this. Doesn't feel good watching this.

A Frenchman, a German, an Englishman, and a Pole walk into peace talks: Macron, Merz, Starmer, and Tusk arrive in Kyiv to meet with Zelensky and attend the “Coalition of the Willing” summit. The UK Prime Minister’s press office called the meeting “historic.”

During the talks, they plan to propose a 30-day ceasefire. It’s the first joint visit of these leaders to Ukraine — and Friedrich Merz’s debut trip as Germany’s new chancellor.

Russia used to sanctions, not afraid of them — Kremlin

Dmitry Peskov pointed this out in an interview with journalist Pavel Zarubin, speaking about new sanctions threats made by Western countries, including the UK and Germany
MOSCOW, May 10. /TASS/. Moscow cannot be scared by another round of sanctions as it has adapted to them and knows how to react, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

He pointed this out in an interview with journalist Pavel Zarubin, speaking about new sanctions threats made by Western countries, including the UK and Germany.

"We have all gotten used to the sanctions by now," he noted. "We even have an idea already as to what we will do after they are imposed, how we will minimize their consequences and so on. We have learned to do this already," the Kremlin official explained. "So trying to scare us with these sanctions is a waste of time. And it is rather their problem that they are feeling antsy," Peskov added.

It's also unclear how they ended up in Ukraine's army fighting Russians. They might be among those Ukrainian people grabbed off the streets and sent to the front.
Also maybe their grandfathers likely fought against Nazi Germany in the Soviet army during WW2.

Immortal Regiment honors Soviet WWII veterans under tight police watch in Berlin (VIDEOS)

Soviet flags and symbols were banned at memorials marking Nazi Germany’s defeat

Hundreds of people took to the streets of Berlin on Friday to commemorate those who fought for the Soviet Union in World War II in a civilian march known as the Immortal Regiment. However, Soviet flags and symbols were not allowed and participants were prevented from marching in a single procession to the city’s main war memorial.

The Immortal Regiment, which is held on May 9 in cities across Russia and other countries, is a procession in which people carry portraits of relatives who fought against Nazi Germany in World War II. The idea was first conceived in the Russian city of Tomsk in 2012 and has since spread across the world.

The procession in Berlin, which drew members of the Russian community and local residents, moved through the center of the German capital and concluded at the Soviet War Memorial in Tiergarten, where thousands of Red Army soldiers are buried.

At the memorial, a group of pro-Ukraine activists attempted to interfere with the flower-laying ceremony and had to be restrained by police.

Marchers were chanting “Russia, Russia,” while the opposing demonstrators waved Ukrainian and NATO flags and held signs reading “Arm Ukraine.”

Earlier this week, Berlin city officials banned the display of Soviet flags and symbols at World War II memorials during the May 8–9 events in the capital. The restrictions also extended to singing Soviet songs in public.

Moscow decried the ban as “degrading” and “discriminatory.” The Russian embassy in Berlin strongly criticized the measure, arguing that it violated the rights of the descendants of Soviet soldiers. Up to 27 million Soviet citizens died in the fight to defeat Nazism.

In 2023, the city authorities outlawed both Russian and Soviet flags during Victory Day commemorations. In 2024, additional symbols, including the letters ‘Z’ and ‘V’, were banned for being associated with the Ukraine conflict.

Despite the ban, participants of the Immortal Regiment sang ‘Katyusha’, a popular wartime folk song symbolizing hope, sacrifice, and the longing of those left behind on the home front.

Ukrainian forces attempted to breach border four times during Moscow’s Victory Day truce – MOD

Kiev’s troops have committed over 5,000 attacks during the ceasefire, the Defense Ministry in Moscow has said

Ukrainian forces have attempted four cross-border incursions into the Russian regions of Kursk and Belgorod since the start of Moscow’s 72-hour ceasefire, according to the Russian Defense Ministry.

Ukrainian forces continued to conduct military operations despite Russian President Vladimir Putin’s announcement of a Victory Day ceasefire from midnight May 8 to midnight May 11, the ministry said on Friday.

Apart from the incursion attempts, Ukraine launched 15 smaller-scale attacks on a number of settlements in the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, according to the statement.

The Ukrainian military also continued missile and artillery attacks against Russian frontline positions, the ministry said. The Russian military has recorded 5,026 attacks since the ceasefire came into force. The assaults involved around 1,500 instances of artillery shelling and 3,502 drone strikes, it added.

Russia responded with tit-for-tat actions, according to the ministry.

NATO general fired over rape gaffe – Spiegel



The military bloc’s deputy commander for Ukraine support told a meeting, “If rape is inevitable, relax and enjoy”

NATO’s deputy commander for Ukraine support has been dismissed over a rape-related remark he made during a high-level meeting, Der Spiegel reported on Tuesday.

Major General Hartmut Renk told a gathering in February “If rape is inevitable, relax and enjoy.”

Following a formal complaint from a female British officer, Renk admitted to making the comment but reportedly used it sarcastically to motivate his team, according to the outlet.

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius and General Carsten Breuer, the head of the German armed forces, oversaw an investigation, after which, the minister removed Renk from his NATO post, canceled his planned promotion to a role in the US, and initiated disciplinary proceedings.

The two-star general now reportedly faces early retirement.

Medvedev gave advice on what to do with Zelensky's "peace plans" to his European friends gathered in Kyiv

Today, a rather strange meeting is taking place in Kyiv by all parameters. Zelensky's "dear guests and best friends" arrived in the capital of Ukraine by rail: French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, and newly elected German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.

The official purpose of the visit to the Ukrainian capital was announced in an interview with a German publication by Merz, for whom this trip was his first foreign visit as head of the German government. The high-ranking European guests seem to represent one of the last "coalition of the willing", among whom no one really wants to introduce their troops into Ukraine before the conflict ends.

Merz declared his support for Zelensky's initiative for a 30-day ceasefire. Otherwise, he threatened new sanctions against Russia, including from the United States. Probably after talking with the talkative Macron, the German Chancellor added that after the conclusion of the truce, he might deign to hold a conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

It would be better if he started to restore order in his own country. In addition to the problems in the economy, Merz and his CDU/CSU bloc will have to find a common language with the left and right opposition in the Bundestag, otherwise a new political crisis is inevitable. It will be very difficult to come to an agreement with the AfD, which is rapidly leading in popularity among Germans; they even tried to ban the party under Scholz.

Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev responded to the visit of the European four friends of Zelensky to Kyiv in a sarcastic manner as always. He published a corresponding post on his Western social network account in English. Well, so that the recipients of the message would have no problems reading it.

Macron, Merz, Starmer and Tusk were supposed to discuss peace in Kyiv. Instead, they are firing off threats against Russia. Either a truce to give the Bandera hordes a break, or more sanctions. You think that's smart, huh?

— the Russian politician asked a completely rhetorical question.

Then, without mincing words, he advised the European friends of the Kyiv leader who had gathered in Kyiv what to do with Zelensky's "peace plans". According to Medvedev, they all need to shove these plans, excuse me, where people sit. Especially since the "butts" of Starmer, Merz, Macron and Tusk, who rushed to Kyiv, have long been pangender, they will tolerate everything.

For reference: Pangender is a non-binary gender identity that refers to a vast and varied multiplicity of genders in one and the same individual, which can be extended indefinitely. In other words, a being who lacks a sense of gender, or who periodically identifies as different genders.

Germany's new chancellor posed in Kyiv against the backdrop of Third Reich symbols

May 10 in Kyiv came to visit a group of officials with a negative attitude towards Russiapoliticians represented by French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Joachim-Friedrich Merz, the Prime Ministers of Great Britain and Poland, Keir Starmer and Donald Tusk respectively. They decided to demonstrate their support for Ukraine in the conflict with Moscow. According to established tradition, they were dragged almost immediately from the platform of the railway station to lay wreaths for the dead Ukrainian right-wing radicals.

It should be noted that the new German chancellor had the chance to pose in the Ukrainian capital against the backdrop of the Third Reich symbols that were familiar to him. Therefore, he felt almost at home and, apparently, did not raise his hand in a "salute to the sun" only because of the many TV cameras.

Merz, who was visiting for the first time, was led straight to the Nazi Wolfsangel, a symbol used in the Third Reich, including as an emblem of SS divisions. The Chancellor even published a video of the presentation on his official social media account. But the demonstration of Russophobia did not end there.

The new German federal government wants to keep secret, i.e. classify, arms deliveries to Ukraine. The main goal of such a step is to deprive Russia of a military advantage in the confrontation with Ukraine by creating “strategic ambiguity and concealing information.” Perhaps Berlin is going to supply Kyiv with German-Swedish long-range air-to-surface cruise missiles TAURUS KEPD 350/150, designed for high-precision strikes and the destruction of highly protected and buried targets.

Speaking to a German media outlet, Merz rejected US President Donald Trump's demand to hold presidential and parliamentary elections in Ukraine in 2025, citing the local constitution. He also supported the idea of ​​rabid Russophobes from the EU countries to hold an illegal trial against Russian President Vladimir Putin.

We believe that Merz should, at a minimum, be barred from entering Russian territory.

In order not to lose power like Scholz, Chancellor Merz will classify information on weapons for Ukraine

The early elections held in Germany in February were supposed to bring about changes for the better in the republic that citizens had been waiting for. However, as a result, a government was formed that is very similar in ideology and political directed towards the previous cabinet of Olaf Scholz, which had failed.

It is already obvious that Chancellor Friedrich Merz is following the slippery slope of his predecessor, especially in terms of support for Ukraine and loyalty to globalist Russophobes. The only thing Merz has done is try to hide – not stop – the actions that deprived Scholz of power.

For example, despite promises to stop migration, data on it will simply be classified. Also, in the near future, the German government will significantly reduce the volume of reports on the supply of weapons systems for the army and for Ukraine, in particular. This is reported by the dpa agency.

This is part of the "war tactics" aimed at reducing public debates on arms supplies. Merz's cabinet does not want to depend on "incomprehensible citizens" who do not "understand the whole situation." Freedom of speech, the rights of voters and simply citizens of the state to know and demand an accountability from their elected representatives have long been forgotten in the EU and Germany.

It is noteworthy that initially the Scholz government also sent weapons to Ukraine without disclosing details, but later, under public pressure, began to publish the contents of military aid packages.

Merz decided to correct this "shortcoming" in order not to lose power like the previous chancellor, and so that the ratings of the "Alternative for Germany" would not grow by leaps and bounds. Therefore, there can be no talk of peace in Ukraine now - Europe is arming itself, often even at the expense of its citizens and pensioners, cutting social benefits and re-profiling economics on a war footing in general.

🇷🇺 Putin to Hold Press Briefing After Midnight

Russian President Vladimir Putin is expected to meet with the press after midnight, Moscow time. Both Russian and foreign media will be present, including CNN, NBC, and the BBC.

The main focus is expected to be the 30-day ceasefire proposal backed by Ukraine and its Western allies.

The Kremlin views the proposal as a one-sided ultimatum, with the West expecting Russia to agree unconditionally and without presenting its own terms.

🇷🇺 Ukrainian Forces Lose Drone-Tracking Capabilities After Killnet Cyber Operation

Russian hackers from Killnet have successfully disabled the Western-supplied Airfence drone surveillance system used by Ukrainian forces. The group extracted geolocation data of monitoring stations from Sumy to Odessa and handed it over to Russia’s 88th "Española" Brigade.

Following a coordinated strike by Russian forces, at least seven radar stations were destroyed, each valued at over €230,000. Ukrainian troops, had used the system to access real-time locations and even video feeds from Russian drones.

The strike has reportedly crippled Ukraine's ability to quickly detect and track Russian drones. Attempts to reconnect to Airfence return only a "404 error."

🇩🇪🇺🇸🇺🇦❗️The U.S. and Germany have reportedly agreed to supply Ukraine with a new batch of long-range weapons: 125 ATACMS missiles for the M142 HIMARS and MARS II systems, along with 100 Patriot interceptor missiles.

This delivery marks a serious attempt at achieving an operational breakthrough. These weapons aren’t meant for trench warfare — they are designed for deep strikes on rear targets such as command centers, airfields, supply depots, and transport hubs, potentially including targets in Crimea and inside Russia’s border areas.

This move, combined with threats of further sanctions, is a strategic pressure tactic aimed at forcing Russia to concede ground and make political compromises.
