NATO would have been in a shooting war with Russia by now had Trump’s victory not been too big to rig. We are seeing rapprochement happen faster than I could have dreamed.

During a press gaggle on Air Force One this afternoon, Trump illustrated the fruits of this rapprochement. Without Russian mediation the Iranian forever war would continue. Trump said he was opening up more access points for food and medicine for the civilians in Gaza. Also, “the Iran situation is coming out very well and I think we’re goin to have a deal. It would be good for humanity”.

Spy vs spy.

But, the KGB agent in charge will not negotiate away any of his wishes to take over what he’s already taken from Ukraine.

Putin will eventually have all of Ukraine. It’s what he’s always wanted.

In an alternate world of reality, you would be correct.

The leading free-world democracy working in cahoots with one of the worst dictatorships ever.

Putin is certainly happy you see things his way.

I am more concerned with China. Let Europe be concerned with Russia.

How come nobody at the CIA is in prison or at least fired either? They were in on everything the FBI was.

Nothing has changed with the real deep state. Only Rubio is cleaning house.

Russia still needs Odessa before being ready to end the war, unless a deal resulting in long-term stability for the region is reached first...and that still seems miles away.

Russia and the Untied States have many common interests and common enemies. The USA is nourished on the concept of Liberty and Republicanism. Not so Russia—they have never known real democracy. Freedom is foreign to them and something they fear as confusion. They like a “Strong Man” in charge to fix things and keep order—be it a Czar or a President. They honor their founder—Ivan the Terrible (In Russian Terrible is better translated as Awesome—but he was terrible too) Ivan was the first Czar to take an interest in running the nation. He formed the first secret police “The Black horse watch”. Russia has always had a secret police from that time on. They support Putin for now.

I think it's the other way around. Putin runs the secret police and the members all answer to him. Membership is through Putin's approval.
