Scary interview. Nuland, Blinken, Sullivan, Powers, etc. are insane. They are leadikng us off a cliff. She may be gone, but the policy remains.
Can Ukraine win this war against Russia? And how do you define winning?
Nuland
Let’s start with the fact that Putin has already failed in his objective. He wanted to flatten Ukraine. He wanted to ensure that they had no sovereignty, independence, agency, no democratic future — because a democratic Ukraine, a European Ukraine, is a threat to his model for Russia, among other things, and because it’s the first building block for his larger territorial ambitions.
Can Ukraine succeed? Absolutely. Can Ukraine come out of this more sovereign, more economically independent, stronger, more European than it is now? Absolutely. And I think it will. But we’ve got to stay with it. We’ve got to make sure our allies stay with it.
And we have to accelerate a lot of the initiatives that were in the supplemental, like helping Ukraine build that highly deterrent military force of the future, like deploying these longer-range weapons to strategic effect, like ensuring that the critical infrastructure and the energy sector are protected, like building up our own defense industrial base and that of our allies and Ukraine’s again, so that we and Ukraine are building faster than Russia and China.
But can it get all its territory back, including Crimea?
Nuland
It can definitely get to a place where it’s strong enough, I believe, and where Putin is stymied enough to go to the negotiating table from a position of strength. It’ll be up to the Ukrainian people what their territorial ambitions should be. But there are certain things that are existential.
Any deal that they cut in their interest and in the larger global interest has to be a deal that Putin is compelled to stick to. We can’t be doing this every six months, every three years. It has to actually lead to a deal that includes Russian withdrawal.
Putin is a master at what we call rope-a-dope negotiating, where he never actually cuts the deal. It has to be a deal that ensures that whatever is decided on Crimea, it can’t be remilitarized such that it’s a dagger at the heart of the center of Ukraine.
Was it a mistake not to push the Ukrainians harder to go for some sort of negotiated end to the war in 2022, especially the fall of 2022?
Nuland
They were not in a strong enough position then. They’re not in a strong enough position now. The only deal Putin would have cut then, the only deal that he would cut today, at least before he sees what happens in our election, is a deal in which he says, “What’s mine is mine and what’s yours is negotiable.” And that’s not

Byron Donalds House rep. rock star from Florida now up working on corruption in the Biden family.
Anna Paulina Luna yet another Florida rock star house rep.
Luna and Donalds both talking about Trump trial with Merchan is a joke and trial should be thrown out. Donalds says Cohen is a liar and predicts Trump will be vindicated.
Maria asks if supremes are watching the trial.
Paulina saying dems can't win on issues so they have to cheat anywhere and everywhere they can. Courts are likely places to cheat and they do it like no one else.
doj can't be trusted to do their jobs.
Maria says people want accountability. Donalds says its coming in November he says dems are radicals leading the demise of the republic.
You hit on the problem we need private enterprise controlling forests,trees, etc. since the feds or states can’t do it right.
As always great stuff to help understand what the MSM won’t focus on.
We are blessed by having these reps. Straight talker , easy to follow
CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN SENDING MONEY TO JUDGE MERCHAN’S DAUGHTER’S PERSONAL HOME RESIDENCE IN RICHMOND, VIRGINIA AND DECEPTIVELY DISTORTING FEC RECORDS TO COVER UP PAYMENTS TO LOREN MERCHAN’S COMPANY🚨🚨🚨
I was searching through Democrat Congressman Dan Goldman’s @danielsgoldman ’s FEC disclosure forms for his campaign disbursements.
YOU WON’T BELIEVE WHAT I FOUND! THIS COULD CHANGE THE ENTIRE TRUMP TRIAL!
According to FEC records, the address that NY Democrat Congressman @RepDanGoldman sends his checks to when he pays “Authentic Campaign” is a Richmond, Virginia address that happens to be the personal home residence of Loren Merchan, Judge Merchan’s daughter.
And to top it off, Goldman prepped Cohen for the trial!!!
Sierra Club is a group of Marxists! I’d love to see them banned. Timber companies know about their products. They don’t want the trees harmed, because they use them to sell.
Wow. Great research on your part and hopefully defense can link it somehow
Shows how they are committing an election violation.
............................
Robert Costello, Michael Cohens former legal adviser, destroyed cohen in the trial since cohen lied his ass off over and over. I heard Costello several times it was awesome.
Karoline Leavitt trump nat. press sec. sitting intrial with trump saying there is no crime to prosecute she has a gag order on her as well.
She's says its nearly impossible to get a clear impartial jury but shes hopeful it happens. Since there is no crime. I for one cant wait to hear the judges instructions to the jury you can bet its all jaded against Trump. Here's Caroline Leavitt 27 years old:
Thanks,im worn out today!!
But mulching won’t get to the roots, right? Did you spray?
I’ve got some Japanese knotweed. I was making progress, but I petered out.
Looks like he’ll try cozying up to both parties no telling what he will do but your are right he is a far left guy. Truth is though he’s going nowhere.
The Biden Reelection Strategy by VDH
Joe Biden polls at or below 40 percent approval. Historically, such unpopularity has made it almost impossible for a president to be reelected.
His age advances by the hour. His voice falters, his memory fades, and his gait is reduced to short steps, with his arms, winglike and in tandem, offering balance.
Biden is not so much an octogenarian as an unhealthy and prematurely aging 80-year-old. It is America’s irony that he is fit for almost no other job in the country other than President, which apparently allows for a 3-day-a-week ceremonial role while others in the shadows run the country.
So how does Biden become renominated and reelected, as polls show he is behind in almost every critical swing state on nearly every issue?
Answer: not by campaigning, not by championing his record, and especially not by doubling down on his neo-socialist and now unpopular agendas.
Instead, his campaign is focused on four other strategies to beat Donald Trump.
First, left-wing local, state, and federal prosecutors are tying Trump up in court on crimes that have never been seen before and will never be again after the election. All the cases are politically motivated, with many coordinated with the White House.
Even if Trump is not convicted by blue-state prosecutors, in blue-state courtrooms, in front of blue-state juries, he will lose critical campaigning time.
Trump may end up paying out $1 billion in legal fees and fines. At 76, the monotonous days in court are designed to destroy him financially, physically, and mentally.
Biden and his operatives know that, in the long term, they may have fatally damaged the American legal system with such judicial sabotage. But short-term, they hope to destroy Trump before the ballots are cast.
Second, in his fourth year, Biden is suddenly selling government favors to special-interest voting blocs, or hoping to bring short-term relief to voters at the expense of long-term damage to the nation.
For elite college students and graduates, there are now billions of dollars in student-loan cancellations, despite a Supreme Court ruling declaring such targeted contractual amnesties illegal.
For consumers, before the election, Biden will likely drain the last drops from the critical Strategic Petroleum Reserve to lower gas prices—now sky-high due to his previous disastrous green policies.
If that is not enough, Biden has ordered Ukraine not to hit Russian oil facilities to avoid panic in the global petroleum markets before early and mail-in balloting begin.
Biden will quietly jawbone the Federal Reserve Bank to lower interest rates and reinflate the economy, despite his own creation of hyperinflation that caused interest rates to rise in the first place.
He will pander to Arab-American voters in swing-state Michigan by cutting arms deliveries to Israel, even as it seeks to destroy the killers of October 7.
And if that mollification is not sufficient to win Michigan, he will suddenly slap higher tariffs on imported Chinese electrical vehicles to win back apostate union auto workers.
Three, the left learned after 2016 that the only way to beat Trump is to change the way Americans vote.
So under the cover of the COVID-19 lockdown, the left sued in critical states to reduce Election Day to a mere construct, while 70 percent of voters mailed in their ballots or voted by early, rolling balloting over many weeks.
The key was the inability to fully authenticate votes, given the old practice of showing up on Election Day and presenting an ID was declared “racist.”
Four, Biden, as he did in 2020, will outsource his campaign to the media, 95 percent of which is left-wing. Talking televised heads will claim Biden is “sharp as a knife” while focusing on Trump’s tweets, Stormy Daniels, Michael Cohen, and lurid but irrelevant testimonies that permeate Trump’s court appearances.
Trump will continue to hold weekend-long, massive 100,000-person rallies, even in blue states. Meanwhile, Biden’s fixers in the media, administrative state, and legal community will counter that even with no crowds and no campaigning, Biden can win through 24/7 nonstop “October Surprises”—all summer long.
So expect more false “Russian collusion,” “laptop disinformation,” and “January 6 insurrection” hoaxes and their new replacements designed to smother the airwaves with salacious scandals nonstop.
Biden’s fading tenure is similar to the last sad months of Woodrow Wilson’s second term, when in 1919-20, the country was assured that a bedridden president was somehow hard at work, even as his wife, doctors, and handlers kept everyone else away.
Biden’s keepers do not seem to care about the president’s own failing health or his dismal polls. They discount his rare, anemic, and disastrous public appearances. They laugh off the huge Trump rallies. And they certainly could care less about the bad optics of pandering to special interests at the expense of the country or the damage done to the American legal and balloting systems.
Instead, Bidenites believe they can reelect an unhealthy, unpopular, and unsuccessful president by any means necessary.
And they may be right.
Burgum is up there for sure, but Scott may have the edge,hard to tell.
thats for sure we are lucky in FLA!
Great find,if the dirty dems can’t cheat they cant win. They know it as well.
You should send this to the warroom I would bet Steve would use it.
It's been mentioned forever that Merchan's kid is making a pile off the trial but you may be the first to actually document it!!
Great job bud!
