Ukraine's Small Window To Get Some Better Than None

Since 2014, when Russia invaded Ukraine for the first time, most Americans were opposed to the blatant land grab by Russia as it annexed Ukraine.

 

Then in 2022, we were equally appalled by the Russian army attacking that same sovereign nation again. For no apparent reason. Many of us supported Ukraine as it battled to save its independence.

After three years of supporting the Ukrainian fight with billions of dollars in American weapons and treasure, it is time for Ukraine and Russia to bring the war to a close. Too much money and treasure has been spent by the US, with no hope for repayment, and ɓoth warring parties have lost more soldiers in three years than the US lost in Vietnam in twenty.

Now, the Trump Administration, after Zelenskyy originally offered, is insisting that any future investment by the US is offset by an equal value of rare earth goods, which many believe is plentiful deep inside Ukraine’s territory. This is possibly one reason for Russia’s ongoing incursion.

Essentially, America’s continued investment in Ukraine’s defense would now be secured, rather than the indiscriminate giveaway by the Biden regime. And both parties in the Congress.

By now, most of the world understands that President Trump is a tough negotiator, generally getting most of what he wants. President Putin understands this, and has readily agreed to work with Trump to end this war. President Zelenskyy needs to open his eyes and back away from his intransigeance before he gets nothing.

It was reported by National Review, Politico and other sources, that while Putin would not relent on Ukraine joining NATO, it seems he would not object to Ukraine joining the European Union. That is a HUGE concession which had never been revealed or discussed.

This may be a limited time offer for President Zelenskyy to swallow his ego and meet with Presidents Trump and Putin as they will agree with the formula to end this debacle. With or without him.

If Zelenskyy wants what is best for Ukraine, he needs to get off the stick before Ukraine is left out in the cold.

The Time For Hamas Has Reached the Red Zone

After the display of barbarism by Hamas on Thursday, they have proven they have no value for human life. Alive OR dead.

 

It was a mockery when they paraded through the streets the coffins containing Ariel and Kfir Bibas’ remains, along with two adults. Then, in an act of total defiance, they did not return the body of their mother, Shiri Bibas, as promised, so they could be buried together.

How cruel! How inhuman! How savage!!

This was not only an anti-Semitic act on the part of Hamas. They have PROVEN they have no souls. Unless they have sold theirs to the Prince of Evil and Darkness.

Hamas has shown the world their lack of character. They rival the Nazis, the Soviets and the Khmer Rouge how low their depravity is. In fact, they are lower.

Hamas is set to free six living hostages on Saturday in the next exchange of the cease-fire deal. But they have proven they are untrustworthy.

If you are still a supporter of Hamas after this display of inhumanity, you are no better than they are. You, too, have no moral compass.

The world wants peace in the Middle East. But Hamas is doing everything possible to prevent it from becoming a possibility. Soon enough, Israel’s patience will be done.

The hour-glass will soon run out of its sand and no one will be there to be willing to give a reprieve. Then, the Gates of Hell will descend upon Hamas like we have never seen before.

And what is left of Hamas will regret what it begat.

Big Shoulders to Carry Heavy Weight

The latest nominee to be confirmed is Kash Patel as FBI Director. The final vote was 51 to 49, with two Republicans voting with all the Democrats.

 

Mr Patel faced a grueling and hostile hearing, and it was carried over to the final vote. Previously, three other now-confirmed nominees had squeaked by, with SecDef Hegseth requiring the vote of Vice President Vance to break the tie.

Director Patel is now the fourth FBI Director since September 4, 2001, when Robert Mueller was sworn in. He was followed by James Comey and Chrisopher Wray.

The term is considered to be for ten years since 1976, but only Mueller has served his full term. And only J. Edgar Hoover served longer. In addition, he was extended by two years by a special Congressional vote. 

The FBI Director reports to the Attorney General.

In addition, the last two directors were removed prior to completing their full terms due to questionable activities.

Mr Patel is the youngest Director and the first Indian-American to lead the FBI. Patel worked for 12 years as a public defender in Florida before serving in the Justice Department as a trial attorney between 2014 and 2017.

At his hearing, Patel pledged to reform rather than unravel the bureau, after some close Trump allies called for the FBI to be disbanded after the August 2022 raid on Trump’s Florida residence.

He truly has his work cut out for him to clean up the mismanagement and politicization which has gone on for years.

Congratulations Director Patel!

Elon Musk Is NOT the Problem

So many people have complained about DOGE and Elon Musk since the Trump Administration was sworn into office. It is time to make some points clearer so that we ALL understand this process.

 

Presidents are permitted to appoint Special Government Employees. They are non-Cabinet advisors, not subject to Senate Confirmation, who work at the pleasure of the President. Many Presidents have done this, probably since the beginning of our Constitutional Republic.

Some key positions have been: The Civilian Conservation Corps, the President’s Council on Physical Fitness, the EPA, EEOC, Homeland Security, JOBS Council, Council of Environmental Quality and Council on Climate Change.

NONE of the heads of these commissions were elected, and several, but not all, have evolved into Cabinet-level positions, which require Senate confirmation. Because their budgets have exploded.

President Trump made it very clear when he was running that Elon Musk would head the Department of Government Efficiency, for no salary or other compensation; he gave an outline of the TEMPORARY department’s scope of responsibility. And he gave an end date.

Knowing all this, he was elected President by 51% of the voters.

Keep in mind that every other head of any department listed above took a substantial salary for the time they served.

So, while Elon Musk was not elected, the person who he reports to was. And the House of Representatives created a subcommittee for oversight to DOGE.

It is terrible that people are losing their jobs because of the inefficiencies DOGE has discovered. But the blame is not the fault of Elon Musk. Instead, it is the fault of the Congress, both parties, which permitted these inefficiencies to fester for so long.

And ultimately, where did all the money go? Who received it? With the revelation of all the money being found, for example, $4.7TT unaccounted for expenses on the Treasury balance sheet and 1.1MM or more recipients of Social Security over the age of 100, we should all be upset about this, as well.

As for politicians who protest too much, perhaps an audit of their finances are in order. After all, how did they become multi-millionaires on $174,000 a year? There are many who claimed poverty when elected, and all are now worth millions.

As former President Harry Truman once said, “Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician, and I'll show you a crook.”

Apparently, Schumer Thinks He Is Above the Law

Funny thing about Senator Schmuck Schumer. He is determined to be relevant, and will do or say anything to accomplish that end.

 

Well, maybe he has finally accomplished it. But this was not how he wanted to be noticed. Was it?

It was reported in Raw Story, a liberal online publication, that the interim DC US Attorney, Ed Martin, sent an email titled 'Operation Whirlwind' in which he said he's “personally launched an investigation into Sen. Chuck Schumer.”

Why? Because the Schmuckster has, according to the email Martin sent to colleagues, described “despicable” threats being received by DOGE workers and other Trump administration officials, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

This is not the first time Schumer has threatened other government officials to whom he is opposed. He has previously threatened Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, as well.

Schumer was always a “bagman” for the Democrats; that is why he is now the Democrat Senate Leader. He is very capable, like a Mafia bagman or collector, to raise untold sums of cash using, some would say, “questionable” or “forceful” methods.

But he has been good at it. And no one questioned it.

Until now.

Martin wrote in his email, "I reached out to Schumer to investigate his threats," but wrote that he had not yet received a response.

"Let me be clear," Martin continued. "We will protect each other. We will protect DOGE. We will protect our judges and cops. And we will go after the people who threaten federal workers and who use their threats to move others against us. We will hold all of them accountable because, as former President Joe Biden said in 2024, 'No one is above the law.'"

Except, apparently, the Schmuckster.

The Hyperbolic Schmuckster Becomes More Irrelevant

So, did we miss something big over the weekend? Did the United States annex Canada?

 

After all, apparently that dumb@$$, Senator Schmuck Schumer is blaming President Donald Trump for the unfortunate plane crash which happened in Toronto. Which is in Canada.

The Schmuckster had fired off a slew of tweets referencing the FAA cuts as he reacted to news of the Delta plane bursting into flames and tipping over as it touched down at Toronto-Pearson International Airport on Monday.

He must think Canada is now our fifty-first state, since it was the FAA's fault for the crash. No Chuckie, it was the CANADIAN Air Traffic Controllers who were in charge of the flight once it left American airspace.

In fact, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was quick to point that out to the uninformed political muckraker, who made himself look like a buffoon.

“It’s incredibly irresponsible for Chuck Schumer to say such a thing when the investigation is still underway,” the press sec told Fox News’ “America Reports” late Tuesday.

“This crash unfortunately took place in Canadian airspace with Canadian air traffic controllers overseeing it,” she said. “No air traffic controllers have been let go” by the Trump administration.

“In fact, Secretary [Sean] Duffy has put great emphasis on hiring the best and the brightest air traffic controllers who want to be part of the FAA,” Leavitt continued.

So maybe, next time the Schmuckster wants to be a $#!+stirrer, he better check his facts. He has become the live-action, modern-day “Peter” as he cries “Wolf” each time he opens his mouth or attempts to use his brain.

He is sinking faster to dramatic hyperbole as he becomes more irrelevant.

Anti-Semitism Is Living Large In New York

Once again, anti-Semitic violence reared its ugly head last night in the Boro Park section of Brooklyn, NY. Pro-Hamas, anti-Israel demonstrations flared up because Pal-Awda gathered to protest what it claimed was Palestinian land being sold off to the Jewish state, the group shared in a post on X Monday afternoon.

 

Right. As if the Orthodox Jews in Brooklyn had any control or say in what goes on in the Middle East.

As reported in the overnight editions of the New York Post, the protest organizer yelled, “There is only one solution, intifada revolution” through a megaphone as others shouted, “Settlers, settlers, go back home, Palestine is ours alone,” the outlet reported.

While local leaders called for police intervention and for cooler heads to prevail, Governor Krazy Kat was off on a mission with the Unrev Al Sharpton to figure a way to bring down Mayor Eric Adams. All because the Trump DOJ decided not to pursue the politically motivated charges the Biden regime brought against Adams because he wasn’t “a Good Democrat.”

Also, Mayor Adams decided he would look out for ALL the citizens of the City and permit ICE to round up illegal criminals who terrorize the people, and not enforce Unconstitutional “Sanctuary” laws.

Her priorities are all fecked up. Instead, her silence was deafening as the violence continued in the City.

Bronx Congressman  Ritchie Torres (D-NY) blasted protesters for targeting Boro Park “simply because it is Jewish”, and vulnerable.

“It should come as a shock to no one that the pro-Hamas mob targeting Jews and promising to ‘flood’ Boro Park has descended into violence,” he posted to  Tuesday night.

“Violence is not a bug but a feature of the so-called ‘Free Palestine’ movement, which has no desire to free Palestinians from Hamas.”

Where is the outrage against Hamas for gloating that they are releasing the bodies of a two-year-old and five-year-old. Along with their mother, who they butchered after the October 7, 2023 terrorist attack?

No, Krazy Kat and the Unrev Al have no time to address this barbaric and ghoulish statement. Too busy dealing with how they can stick it to Adams and Trump.

While innocents in Brooklyn are continuing to be threatened and beaten because they are Jewish.
