Trump has said they are almost 90% there on a peace deal without Russia present as if the US and Ukraine were the parties in question. It may not be directly relevant but when we developed complex systems we typically used >90% of the total time to complete from 98%...
Humanity has two major tasks we need to solve right now:
1) Climate and environment
2) Peace and freedom
How come we let the one person who is actually working most effectively against both be the centre of all our attention and allowed to set the agenda and rule together with his pals?
And Iran from the Ayatollahs
Honestly I still can’t stop laughing 😂😅🤣
Dramatic global challenges are coming. Consider the implications of:
1) key Xi loyalists have been replaced by his opposition preparing his overthrow
2) Kadyrov is planning his escape. When he runs no one will defend Putin
3) US bonds and dollar collapsing making Trump lose momentum and mid-terms
When I saw the two of them sitting there I couldn't help but pray for #Zelensky and #Ukraine. And for each and every one of the many people I know from different parts of Ukraine who I have gotten to know over the almost 30 years since I first traveled there and who have been through so much
Anyone still wondering why #Trump admires #Putin watch this video. There is no grand vision or strategy, he is competing. With #Canada and #Greenland he will rule over the largest country and with largest economy he can overtake Putin as the world's richest man.

As Ukraine and the US prepare to sign an agreement on rare earth minerals (widely viewed in Ukraine as extortionate), recall that the Budapest Memorandum the US and others signed with Ukraine forbids economic coercion.
"The security of the world is at stake." Well worth watching President Zelenskyy's interview on 60 Minutes www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine...
The reason I keep bombing Ukraine now Trump is POTUS is cos he did nothing when I kept bombing Ukraine first time he was POTUS.
🇺🇦 Today, more than 40% of all weapons used on the front for the defense of Ukraine are produced in Ukraine, — Zelensky.
❗️Ukraine will do more and more to guarantee its security and need its own technological advantage, so that Russia knows — we will respond to every blow.
An amazing video about Ukrainian women and their strength.
Repost if you still stand with Ukraine!

The USA is running out of patience with Ukraine for being bombed by Russia.
Surreal to see this analysis in a staid financial publication like the Financial Times. It’s less of a surprise that this play is the only way to avoid the threat of prison post-presidency.
The surprise is that the Silicon Valley braintrust’s big idea for the future is Trump as president for life.
And I think we will be able to talk about this in great detail next week (...) We believe that Chinese representatives are engaged in the production of some weapons in Russia," the President of Ukraine said.
China supplies weapons to Russia, including artillery and gunpowder, - Zelenskyy
"We have finally received information that China is supplying weapons to Russia. Today we have general information from the Security Service, from intelligence about gunpowder, artillery.

#Broligarchs say capitalism (their version) is incompatible with democracy. They are using every means, including christofascism and dictator Trump to destroy our government for their own philosophy of a New World
Comprehensive must listen from @wajali.bsky.social and @hcrichardson.bsky.social
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R): "We are all afraid…I am oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice because retaliation is real."

Ursula von der Leyen will meet Keir Starmer in London next week as the UK and the EU prepare to discuss closer energy ties as part of a wider Brexit “reset.”
BREAKING: China provides Russia with weapons, Zelensky says #Ukraine
The way the EU is dealing with this frozen money is just another example of historically unacceptable, ill advised compromises. Either EU finds the resolve to use this money "whatever it takes" to save democracies or every member starts learning ruzzian. So, what’s it going to be?
Russia has offered the United States to fight "Eurofascism" together.
The Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) published an article about European "fascism." It is about fascism in Britain and France, which Washington and Moscow allegedly opposed together in the international arena.
⚡️Germany sends more air defense systems, missiles to Ukraine.
Germany has provided Ukraine with a new package of military assistance, including IRIS-T air defense systems and missiles for Patriots, according to an updated list released by the German government on April 17.
🇺🇸🇺🇦 "If it weren't for the US, Ukraine wouldn't have seen the launch of ballistic missiles, we wouldn't have been able to warn Ukrainians," — Zelensky
🛰️ "If it weren't for US intelligence, there would have been more cases like in Krivyi Rih/Sumy. That's why we were so worried when they were frozen."
