Donald Trump is ready to walk away from trying to negotiate a Russia-Ukraine peace deal within days unless progress is made, a top US official has warned.
If the president doesn’t see signs that an agreement is on the horizon he will call it a day because he has ‘other priorities’ to focus on, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Friday.
‘We’re not going to continue with this endeavor for weeks and months on end. So we need to determine very quickly now, and I’m talking about a matter of days whether or not this is doable in the next few weeks.
‘If it is we’re in. If it’s not, then we have other priorities to focus on as well,’ Rubio said in Paris, after meeting European and Ukrainian leaders.
Rubio said Trump was still interested in a deal but was willing to move on if there were no immediate signs of progress.
‘If it’s not possible, if we’re so far apart that this is not going to happen, then I think the president’s probably at a point where he’s going to say, ‘well, we’re done’, he said.
‘The United States has been helping Ukraine over the last three years, and we want it to end, but it’s not our war,’ Rubio added.
UPDATE: I waited on this because I wanted to watch it before posting. Watched it last night. It is well-worth viewing. Weldon is calling for a presidential inquiry and wants to hear ‘the thousands of architects and engineers who are risking their careers by questioning 9/11’ speak publicly before the inquiry, along with firemen, police, former intelligence officials, and others. He says the official story and the 9/11 Commission Report are total ‘garbage’, as most of us already know. Carlson is alert, aware, sympathetic and apologizes profusely for his nasty 9/11 errors in the past (which were very bad and caused me to despise him for many years). Sandy Berger, Phillip Zelikow, and other Jewish Supremists feature in Weldon’s evidence that dark forces within the CIA did 9/11, not Muslim terrorists; but he never goes so far as to implicate Israel in aiding and abetting the attack if not planning and orchestrating it. I agree with Weldon that this is a perfect time to reopen the investigation. The Zelikow tall tale of 9/11 is blatant mind-control ‘garbage’; and as such excellent evidence of the coverup of what really happened and who was involved. 9/11 is recent enough that shining public light on it will profoundly affect USA and the world; I believe for the good. I do not know if Trump has the power or understanding to do it. ABN
Pam Bondi’s ability to manage the Department of Justice has come under increased scrutiny from the right. File releases are delayed or mismanaged. No apparent action is taken against subversive government officials. And J6ers and other victims of a weaponized DoJ remain unsatisfied.
Many have raised the question of whether Pam Bondi was the right choice for MAGA attorney general. Many more, including President Trump, would be questioning her bona fides if they knew about Bondi’s role in the creation of Black Lives Matter.
How Trump handles the DoJ will be crucial to the success of his second term. His failure to take control of the Justice Department marred his first term. Uncertain of his powers, Trump bowed to the media and Democrats, who screamed for the DoJ to remain “independent.” He and his first attorney general, Jeff Sessions, watched impotently as the Deep State subverted his presidency with the Russiagate witch hunt and prosecuted key advisers such as Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, and Mike Flynn.
Pam Bondi is no Jeff Sessions, but her history raises questions about her willingness to fight an entrenched opposition. The case against her revolves around her mishandling of the prosecution of George Zimmerman in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin.
In a bold and somewhat cryptic statement that’s turning heads and raising eyebrows across the globe, White House tech chief Michael Kratsios claimed the United States has cutting-edge technology capable of “bending time and space.”
Kratsios, who serves as Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, made the comment during a keynote speech at the Endless Frontiers Retreat in Austin, Texas.
Just weeks into his new role, Kratsios wasted no time painting a picture of American innovation that, if true, would in all likelihood place us light-years ahead of our global competitors.
“We seem to have lost focus and vision, to have lowered our sights and let systems and structures and bureaucracies muddle us along. But we are capable of so much more. Our technologies permit us to manipulate time and space. They leave distance, violated, cause things to grow and improve productivity,” Kratsios said.
Astronomers claim to have seen the strongest evidence so far for life on another planet. But other astronomers have urged caution until the findings can be verified by other groups and alternative, non-biological explanations can be ruled out.
“These are the first hints we are seeing of an alien world that is possibly inhabited,” Nikku Madhusudhan at the University of Cambridge told a press conference on 15 March.
Astronomers first discovered the exoplanet K2-18b in 2015, and soon established that it was a promising place to look for life. About eight times as massive as Earth and orbiting a star 124 light years away from us, the planet sits in the habitable zone of its star, where liquid water can exist. Further observations, in 2019, found evidence of water vapour, which led to suggestions that the planet may be covered in oceans sitting under a hydrogen-rich atmosphere, though not all astronomers agreed.
To my knowledge, no earth-shattering revelations or damning evidence has emerged from the 64,000 documents made public since March 18th on the assassination of John Kennedy. Nevertheless, the theory of Israeli guilt is reinforced by clarifications on James Jesus Angleton’s proximity to the Mossad. And the word is spreading on the social networks.
As shown here, the word Israel, which was blacked out from a previously declassified document, is now cleared on the new version. This indicates that, while the CIA had wanted to conceal the link between Angleton and Israel, the link is now so well known that the redaction of the word Israel has become ridiculously counterproductive. Similarly, on another document mentioning that Angleton “run several intelligence projects, many of them with [the Israeli Intelligence Service]”, the words in brackets have also been un-redacted, as pointed out on the Wikileaks X account, followed by 5.8 million subscribers.
A newly declassified page shown here cites CIA director (DCI) John McCone about the secret diplomatic crisis between the White House and the Jewish state over the latter’s determination to build nuclear bombs. Noting that the Israelis are “withholding information on the extent of its nuclear activities”, and “refuse to submit to international safeguards prescribed by the International Atomic Energy Agency”, McCone feared that the Israeli project would “trigger grave trouble in the Middle East”, and recommended to President Kennedy, as he had to his predecessor Eisenhower (as chairman of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission), to impose economic sanctions against Israel. It must be remembered that McCone had been placed at the head of the CIA by Kennedy precisely because of his good knowledge of and opposition to the Israeli Dimona project.
This reminds us that incriminating “the CIA” in general terms for the Kennedy assassination makes little sense, since its director was certainly innocent. What needs to be done is to identify the CIA agents who may have been involved without their director’s knowledge. The name on which all suspicions focus since the 1970s is that of James Jesus Angleton, head of Counterintelligence. The CIA trail leads straight to the threshold of his office. However, since the publication in 2017 of his biography by Jefferson Morley (The Ghost), we know that his office led to the Mossad through a back door. Thus, through Angleton, the trail of the CIA leads straight to the Mossad, just like through Jack Ruby (Jacob Rubenstein), the trail of the “mafia” leads straight to the Irgun. Sam Parker summarizes well here the main acts of treason of Angleton in favor of Israel.
…Angleton has now been exposed as a traitor to his own country for bringing Israeli spies into the CIA, including into the monitoring of Oswald. This is of equal significance to LBJ being exposed as a traitor to his own country by allowing Israel to try to sink the USS Liberty and get away with it.
Earth rotates, the Sun rotates, the Milky Way rotates – and a new model suggests the entire Universe could be rotating. If confirmed, it could ease a significant tension in cosmology.
The Universe is expanding, but exactly how fast is a contentious question. Two different methods of measurement return two very different speeds – and as the measurements become more precise, each becomes more certain. This discrepancy is known as the Hubble tension, and it’s reaching crisis levels in physics.
So for a new study, physicists in Hungary and the US added a small rotation to a model of the Universe – and this mathematical massage seemed to quickly ease the tension.
“Much to our surprise, we found that our model with rotation resolves the paradox without contradicting current astronomical measurements,” says István Szapudi, an astronomer at the University of Hawaii.
“Even better, it is compatible with other models that assume rotation. Therefore, perhaps, everything really does turn.”
The report comes as a result of leaks to the New York Times. Which, given the nature of the subject matter and administration officials involved, indicates the sourcing is from the domestic IC side of things. Specifically, the greatest likelihood is from someone in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) talking to media. Keep that in mind.
According to leaked information to the New York Times, President Trump did not agree with an Israeli proposal to launch military strikes against Iran. According to the narrative as advanced, President Trump, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth were in agreement to attempt diplomatic solutions instead of bombing Iran.
Israel could not conduct the attack without U.S. support, which President Trump decided not to give. Instead, Trump wanted a more forceful push toward engagement and diplomacy with Iran surrounding the ongoing contentious issue of nuclear development.
UPDATED: All American laws are ultimately pragmatic. This includes SCOTUS rulings on the Constitution as well as district prosecutors deciding how to work a case. Legal pragmatics include ethics and precedents, while also recognizing the urgency of, say, removing millions of illegal immigrants in USA. The legal remedy in this case properly must fit the crime, which was treasonous importation of millions of illegals. Sending a plane-load of violent illegals to El Salvador was a pragmatic decision as it removed some of the worst and also sends a strong message to others of their ilk to get out of the country. It’s a pragmatic application of the law. ‘Legal’ objections to it are absurd in the face of the massive offense (treason) and massive harm (tens of millions of illegals ushered in to USA under Biden). Below is an illustration of the problem. ABN
‘The best way to do it to say they’re lying, here’s the truth’ — Rubio on confronting the EU and UK on their censorship and phony ‘misinformation’ prosecutions. He makes very strong statements about protecting ordinary Americans from censorship at home and abroad. This is Rubio at his best. I hope he keeps going and delivers, which I believe he will. ABN
‘Mainstream newspapers and mainstream media report things as fact that are completely not true. Our approach to that is not to shut them down, not fine them. Our approach is to say they’re lying, here’s the truth.’ — Marco Rubio
