It's amazing to watch and see him use the same tactics over and over and the retards on the left predictably losing their minds over and over as if on cue. The man is the maestro before a symphony of media. Playing them like it's Wagner. And since very few other world leaders are even comprehending what he's doing, he's rolling them in tariff negotiations. Big wins. Little wins. Incremental wins. Wins. It's Hamiltonian ideas painted by a pugilist. The man is inspired. He's right. And history will remember him more highly than most.

With four hats, including national security adviser, the former Trump rival is defying predictions he’d be a weak player. Marco Rubio is doing big things under President Donald Trump — way more than nearly anyone expected. The secretary of State was once thought of as one of the weakest players in the Trump orbit, a man who wouldn’t last long in the Cabinet because he faced many internal rivals and had major policy differences with Trump and the MAGA base. But Rubio has deftly earned the president’s trust, enough so that Trump this week gave him another powerful job as...

Will Zelensky attack ther Victory Day parade and escalate the war to the maximum? On the one hand, we all know ‘talk is cheap’, so it may be that Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky is just posturing when he hints that his forces may well attack the May 9th Victory Day Parade in Moscow, Russia – an event that will gather thousands of people, including as many as 20 heads of state. This would amount to an especially damning escalation since Putin declared a 3-day truce from May 8-10 – a proposal that Kiev sneered at, but hasn’t publicly rejected. However,...
