EU is the fourth largest supporter of Russia. EU is making trade and immigration deals with the top two supporters of Russia.
They have a problem with Trump offering sanction relief to Russia to negotiate peace.
CIA Swamp creature. Slotkin is as dangerous as it gets.
Austerity is coming to UK. They cant possibly rebuild their military and fund Ukraine while also continuing all the social programs.
Its more likely this message will be met with rioting than with patriotism.

Patience is growing very thin with this little psycho. Hitting global diesel prices right before winter when told not to was a big mistake. His partners in Europe are losing elections and Europe is out of money.

Dear Secretary Bessent @SecScottBessent,
My name is Everett Stern. In 2010 I was a compliance officer at @HSBC. From a back office in New Castle, Delaware, I watched billions of dollars move to drug cartels, sanctioned regimes, and terrorist organizations. The enemies of the United States. I documented it, I escalated it, and when the bank would not act, I took it to the @FBI, the @CIA, and eventually the @SECGov.
The result was a $1.92 billion settlement. At the time, it was one of the largest in American history. It was also about five weeks of the bank’s profit. Not one banker was charged. Not one went to prison.
I paid a different price. I lost my career, my savings, and my place in the industry I had trained for. I was blacklisted. Every door in American finance closed at once. I slept on a camping cot in a 300 square foot apartment because I could not afford a bed, and I waited tables at @PFChangs to eat. I tell you this not for sympathy, but so you understand that I know exactly what it costs to do the right thing in American finance, and exactly how little the system does in return.
I made that sacrifice because I believed it would change something.
Yesterday, your department fined @BankofAmerica $1.2 billion for failing to report more than $5 billion in suspicious transactions, some of it tied by your own findings to Chinese laundering networks, narcotics, and the southwest border, alongside 475 apparent sanctions violations touching Russia, Iran, and global terrorism. The bank admitted it willfully violated the Bank Secrecy Act.
Fourteen years after HSBC. A bank with “America” in its name. And once again, not one individual charged.
Secretary Bessent, I want to say plainly what I believe you already know. The fines are not working.
A fine is paid by shareholders, absorbed by the balance sheet, and forgotten by the next earnings call. Bank of America reported earnings this morning. Nobody who set the alert thresholds, nobody who decided the 2024 cease and desist could wait, nobody who chose the backlog over the law will lose a single thing they value. Their lives are untouched. That is the entire reason the behavior repeats.
This is money laundering. This is blood money. Money that reaches a cartel buys fentanyl that kills Americans. Money that reaches a terrorist organization buys the next attack. This country has fought a war on drugs and a war on terror for decades, at enormous cost in lives and treasure, and all the while we have allowed the financing to flow through institutions we charter and regulate. Cut off the money and we win. We have never seriously tried.
There is also a question of equal justice that I cannot let go.
Before I walked into the FBI building to report HSBC, I stopped in front of the Great Seal on the wall and read the words engraved beneath it: “Justice is the defense of our liberty.” I believed that. I still want to. But every day in this country, people go to prison for crimes that are nothing next to moving money for the people who want Americans dead. A suit, a title, and a corporate badge should not be a shield from the consequences that apply to everyone else. If a street dealer goes to prison for what he sells, the banker who moved the cartel’s money should be standing next to him.
I also want to raise something that is rarely said in these conversations. Why has no one inside Bank of America come forward the way I did? The answer is that everyone in American banking knows what happened to me, and to the whistleblowers who came after. The last person who spoke up is the only policy anyone believes. That is a culture problem, and it starts with leadership, in the banks and in the agencies that regulate them.
This is not a political issue. It has spanned administrations of both parties. It is a national security issue, and I am asking you to treat it as one.
Three things would change the math overnight.
Refer individuals for criminal prosecution. Not the analyst in the queue. The executives who set the thresholds and chose the risk. One banker in handcuffs would do more than every fine in Treasury’s history combined.
End “too big to jail.” An institution cannot be too big to fail and too big to jail at the same time. If it is the first, it must be held to a higher standard, not a lower one.
And if Bank of America will not act as America’s bank, review its charter. A national charter is a privilege granted on behalf of the American people. It should be conditioned on not moving money for the people trying to kill them.
Secretary Bessent, you said yesterday that these actions send a clear message that even the biggest institutions are not above the law. With respect, the institution was never the problem. The people inside it are above the law, and they know it. Until that changes, I will keep writing letters like this one, and the next bank will keep paying the next fine.
I gave up everything I had to stop this. I am asking you to use the power you have to finish it.
Respectfully,
Everett A. Stern

The world bankrupted their economies just to export all their pollution to China for cheap crap. Then put it on the dirtiest polluting cargo ships and shipped it back.
China uses over 50% of the worlds coal. More than all other countries combined.
Enormous change.
🚨 WOW! Donald Trump reveals his new executive order will allow small and medium ranchers to TOTALLY IGNORE the big meatpackers, and sell direct to consumer — 47 is expecting major blowback from the mega corporations
"Small and medium sized and large ranchers can sell their products DIRECT TO CONSUMER, they don't have to go through the Big Four processors and middlemen. They're NOT gonna be happy when they hear this! Will you people protect me?!" 😂
Trump made the RIGHT MOVE.
All the pieces are falling into place.
US just passed a Russian sanction bill that includes tariffs on Russian oil buyers.
China is the largest buyer of Russian oil. Trump met with Xi.
Russia wants the war to end. China doesnt want US tariffs.
US buys Russian diesel in exchange for Russia and China to abandon Iran.
Europe is out of money. Diesel shortages are hitting and winter is coming.
They all sit down with Zelensky and tell him its over. Time for peace. Listen to the narrative shift.

This problem is so much larger than the corporation and colleges that defraud it. Its a Trojan Horse program to drain dollars from the US.
This has to be ended on both ends.
Vice President JD Vance on H-1B Visa Fraud:
"Here's the basic problem, something that we been working towards fixing in the Trump Administration for a long time. The H-1B visa program is meant to allow companies to bring and really the best of the best from outside the United States of America, for positions that are completely impossible to fill with American workers. Unfortunately, the program has become rife with fraud over the last several years, probably the last several decades."
I dont think we have the will to do what is necessary to save it.
Why did Rome fall?
There were lots of reasons…disease…barbarian invaders.
But also a reason modern societies should worry about: entitlement spending!
Yes, really.
“Rome could conquer the world,” explains historian @johanknorberg, “but they couldn’t do entitlement reform.”
Golden Ages: How Great Civilizations Fall & How We Can Save Ours
For most of history, the norm was hunger and disease. But there were exceptions, golden ages (like Ancient Rome). If we want to extend America's current golden age, we should learn from them:
1.5-2 million US troops moved through Britain during WW2. At peak 800,000 were stationed there. Several UK bases and airfields were built by the US and are still active today.
749 US soldiers died on British soil in an accident rehearsing for the D-day invasion.
407,316 US service members died and 671278 were wounded during WW2.
It sure doesnt seem like a coincidence that the US was spreading this disease.
Cmon Brazil. Make the Americas Great Again.
