Trump takes spectacular actions to finally ‘stop all the killing’ and corruption in Ukraine war

Trump’s Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said, ‘I’m here today to directly and unambiguously express that stark strategic realities prevent the United States from being the primary guarantor of security in Europe.’

As the Trump Administration moves forward on its promise to end the war in Ukraine, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has made a speech defining the “end of an era.”   

Speaking ahead of the Munich Security Conference, Hegseth announced the end of the 75-year commitment of the U.S. to finance and supervise European national security. 

 

“I’m here today to directly and unambiguously express that stark strategic realities prevent the United States from being the primary guarantor of security in Europe.” 

Hegseth said he would not be attending the Munich Security Conference, as he “would much rather talk to troops than go to cocktail parties.” The new Defense Secretary is visiting U.S. troops in Europe instead of meeting NATO leaders.  

Trump, Putin slated to have immediate peace talks

A phone conversation was held on February 12 between Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin with Trump saying right after the call “our respective teams [will] start negotiations immediately.”

As Redacted’s report of February 13 noted, the “warmongers” are in “meltdown” over the prospect of peace – and at Donald Trump’s claims of a far higher death toll and price tag – “350 billion” – than has been made public so far.  

Yet, peace in Ukraine will reveal more than the true cost in financial and human terms. It threatens to unravel a vast network of corruption involving every government, politician and propagandist involved in funding and promoting a war which was never really about Ukraine and was always intended to collapse Russia.  

Instead, its end may sign the death warrant for the globalist death cult which sponsored it. 

USAID-sponsored Politico reports gloom from an irrelevant Olaf Scholz.  

The U.K. government’s rabidly pro-war regime has been “sidelined” by the move to peace, and the proudly pro-war German coalition “ignored” as “it will not be in power much longer.” Olaf Scholz’s coalition collapsed two days after Trump’s election victory on November 7.  

JD Vance has reportedly snubbed the outgoing German leader, with a U.S. official saying “We don’t need to meet him. He won’t be chancellor long.”

The era that is ending is not only an era of enormous waste but also a permanent war that it funded. As Elon Musk’s DOGE purge has revealed, our media, politics, policies, social movements and even COVID-19 itself have all been sponsored by U.S. taxpayers’ money by a “parasite class” of liberal globalists.  

 

The counterfeit culture sponsored by the Deep State to sell its wars and globalist policies of social revolution is at an end, and NATO was simply the military wing of an attempt to project the power of this agenda worldwide – as this July 2024 piece from Rep. Warren Davidson shows. 

“NATO has shifted…” said Davidson, “from a defensive alliance” to one promoting the “globalist consensus.” The U.S., he said, promising a “diplomatic resolution to the conflict in Ukraine,” and an “America-First foreign policy.” He said, “This other nonsense is bankrupting our country financially and morally.”

Americans will no longer be paying for this “nonsense.” They will find out the truth by following the money.  

Zelensky: I don’t know where all the money is

Donald Trump has said this week that the true cost to U.S. taxpayers of sponsoring the war in Ukraine is over 350 billion dollars.  

President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine responded to claims he was given 177 billion dollars by the U.S. government. In a startling admission, he not only counters by saying it may in fact be “200 billion dollars,” but adds “It’s true, I do not know where all this money is.” 

Zelensky says, “We received 75 billion out of this 177 or 200 billion.”

“That is, 100 billion out of this 177, or 200 some people even say, we have never received.”

Zelensky’s shocking statement began to circulate online on February 3.

Soros-backed “fact checkers” at the Poynter Institute sought to undermine the revelations on February 5, saying the disclosure by Zelensky that a hundred billion dollars of U.S. taxpayer’s money has gone missing is “not evidence of money laundering.”

Soros backs Ukraine corruption

George Soros announced his aim was “the dissolution of the Russian empire” in 2023, adding that regime change in Russia “Would be a big change for the better.”  

Soros urged the donation of 50 billion dollars to Ukraine in 2015, following the U.S.-orchestrated Maidan coup of 2014. In the same year, he warned a Russian victory would destabilise the European Union.  

He pledged to invest a billion dollars in Ukraine at the 2015 World Economic Forum. and went on to set up an Open Society Foundations fund to provide a further 100 million dollars in 2022.  

In May 2024, Soros said, “Our civilization may not survive,” a Russian victory. Yuval Noah Harari, World Economic Forum prophet of transhuman homosexualism, explained whose idea of civilization Soros said was under threat of extinction:  

If Russia is allowed to win – that’s the end of the global order we have known for decades.

 

The end of the globalist order

Another death blow was predicted by Harari.   

“If Trump wins in 2024…it is likely to be the death blow to what remains of the global order.”

 

This global order of permanent war, open borders and LGBTQ has been revealed in the past weeks as a sponsored worldwide regime change operation run by the U.S. Deep State, through agencies such as USAID and the National Endowment for Democracy.  

 

Elon Musk’s DOGE purge has uncovered the fact that the U.S. taxpayer has been funding the WEF, with over 68 million dollars disbursed to the globalist bureaucracy by the CIA front group USAID. 

People like Harari, along with all the liberal-global governments who sent our money to Ukraine, are rightfully terrified at the end of their corrupt system, which has seen media outlets sponsored to broadcast propaganda about the USAID-funded COVID-19, the mRNA “vaccines” and the Ukraine war, and whose funding networks have promoted global social revolution to destroy traditional cultures across the world – and corrupt our democracies. 

Funding your own deception  

Many institutions involved in promoting this agenda are connected to the demonization of anyone speaking for peace as a foreign agent of Russia. Of course, the CIA has been backing Ukrainian propaganda efforts, as the New York Times reported in February 2024.  

The U.S. and U.K. governments have also been sponsoring a spy network which framed JD VanceTucker Carlson, Elon Musk and Candace Owens as “Russian agents of propaganda.”

Carlson has recently claimed that “half the weapons” sent to Ukraine are missing.  

This operation, described by Foreign Policy as a “private company” in March 2023, has placed fake news in U.S. and U.K. news outlets has also targeted journalists and commentators such as Max Blumenthal and George Galloway – all of whom feature on a published list of “Enemies of Ukraine” alongside Hungarian President Viktor Orban – and U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie.  

The group, called Molfar, keeps private dossiers on these “enemies,” which also include critics of the COVID-19 regime of the European Union, as well as counter-globalist commentators. 

Responding to a Molfar “dodgy dossier” claiming he was a paid Russian agent, Blumenthal said in July 2022, “The claims made in [Molfar’s] mass email are totally false, as I and the Grayzone do not receive state funding. Unlike the USAID-backed smear factory at Molfar, our support is entirely grassroots and reader-based.”  

 

Molfar is another example of how our money in the West is used to corrupt our news and smear as traitors anyone who questioned the wisdom of all-out war with Russia – or any other globalist policy. 

The architect of the fake dossier whose lies dragged the U.S. and U.K. into the 2003 Iraq war, Alastair Campbell, continues to echo claims made by this Deep State propaganda outfit to frame VanceMusk and President Trump himself as “Russian agents.” This is just one example of the decades-old vicious circle of propaganda and lies whose power will be exposed – and likely end – with the end of the Ukraine war. 

US detainee released from Russia

In further good news, Trump’s chief negotiator Steve Witkoff secured the release from Russia of detained U.S. citizen Mark Fogel on February 11, as National Security Adviser Mike Waltz announced. 

Waltz described this as a show of “good faith” from the Russians, and “a sign we are moving in the right direction to end the brutal and terrible war in Ukraine.” 

This is indeed the end of an era. It is the end of NATO, whose actions started this war. It is the end of the globalist system for which the war was orchestrated – and the ensuing revelations of the corruption in Ukraine and in the former regime of the West spell doom for the old globalist order.

“HELL WILL RAIN DOWN”: Trump unleashes U.S. military on Yemeni Houthis

Published on

MXM logo MxM News

Quick Hit:

President Trump ordered a massive military assault on Iranian-backed Houthi forces in Yemen on Saturday, vowing to unleash “overwhelming lethal force” after months of attacks on American and allied vessels in the Red Sea.

Key Details:

  • Trump announced the strikes in a Truth Social post, stating, “Today, I have ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen.”

  • He criticized former President Joe Biden for failing to contain the Houthis, saying his response was “pathetically weak” and emboldened the group’s ongoing attacks on commercial and military vessels.

  • The U.S. Navy’s USS Harry S. Truman carrier strike group, along with three destroyers and a cruiser, launched the assault, targeting radars, air defenses, and missile systems used to disrupt shipping lanes.

Diving Deeper:

President Trump escalated U.S. military action against Iran-backed Houthi rebels on Saturday, ordering airstrikes on targets in Yemen in response to the group’s repeated attacks on Red Sea shipping. Trump, in a Truth Social post, declared that the U.S. military would not tolerate continued aggression and vowed an overwhelming response.

“The Houthi attack on American vessels will not be tolerated,” Trump wrote. “We will use overwhelming lethal force until we have achieved our objective.” He directly warned the Houthis, stating, “YOUR TIME IS UP, AND YOUR ATTACKS MUST STOP, STARTING TODAY. IF THEY DON’T, HELL WILL RAIN DOWN UPON YOU LIKE NOTHING YOU HAVE EVER SEEN BEFORE!”

The strikes, carried out by U.S. Central Command, targeted missile sites, drone launch facilities, and command centers used by the Houthis to strike commercial and military vessels in the Red Sea. U.S. warships and carrier-based fighter jets participated in the mission, marking a significant escalation in efforts to protect international shipping routes.

Trump also issued a direct warning to Iran, demanding that its support for the Houthis “must end immediately.” Addressing Tehran, Trump wrote, “Do NOT threaten the American People, their President…or Worldwide shipping lanes. If you do, BEWARE, because America will hold you fully accountable and we won’t be nice about it!”

The strikes come after more than a year of escalating attacks by the Houthis, who have targeted over 100 merchant vessels, sunk at least two, and killed multiple sailors since the Israel-Hamas war began. Trump pointed to Biden’s failures in handling the crisis, noting that “it has been over a year since a U.S.-flagged commercial ship safely sailed through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea, or the Gulf of Aden.”

With Trump’s order, the U.S. is making clear that hostile actions in the Red Sea will not go unanswered. As military operations continue, all eyes will be on whether the Houthis and their Iranian backers heed the warning—or face even greater firepower from the U.S. military.

EU leaders escalate war rhetoric with Russia in stark departure from Trump’s peace push

Published on

From LifeSiteNews

By Frank Wright

Germany’s leading academic authority on its army has said that Europe’s depleted armed forces would be “washed away” by Russia in weeks, and that it could take at least 15 years before Germany was ready for war.

Last night’s European Council summit responded to Donald Trump’s moves to end the war in Ukraine with a commitment to massive European rearmament.

The EU Council published a statement that, “In 2025, it will provide Ukraine with EUR 30.6 billion” and “increased military support” to Ukraine and proposes “a new EU instrument to provide Member States with loans backed by the EU budget of up to EUR 150 billion” in support to “non-EU members” to rebuild “defense.”

The extraordinary announcement comes two days after EU Chief Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen, an elected MEP appointed to the powerful leadership position by other MEPs, proposed to “rearm Europe” with the release of up to 800 billion euros ($867 billion) in funding. Details on how the money will be raised are set to be finalized later in March.

European and British statements on this issue directly contradict and defy moves towards a durable peace made by the Trump administration. They have also been met with stern rebukes from Russia.

Reuters reported two days ago that Trump had vowed to “end this senseless war” and “stop the killing”:

Trump also said he had been in “serious discussions with Russia” and had “received strong signals that they are ready for peace.”

“Wouldn’t that be beautiful?” he said. “It’s time to stop this madness. It’s time to halt the killing. It’s time to end this senseless war. If you want to end wars you have to talk to both sides.”

Trump is attempting to return the Western world back to the traditions of international diplomacy before and during international conflicts to save lives and prevent unnecessary massive destruction.

This is a major turn away from the top priority given to military power in recent decades. That appears to have been driven by globalist forces, including giant military-industrial complexes, moneylenders, and globalist investment companies like Blackrock who greatly profit from continuous war.

The Russians responded with “concern” over the “remilitarization” of Europe, with spokesman Dmitry Peskov saying the “confrontational rhetoric and confrontational thinking” from Europe goes against efforts to reach a peaceful resolution to the Ukraine conflict.

France – nuclear escalation?

On Wednesday evening French President Emmanuel Macron made a direct address to the French nation in which he described Russia as a “threat to France and Europe” and said he had decided “to open the strategic debate on the protection of our allies on the European continent by our (nuclear) deterrent.” France is the only nuclear armed member state in the EU.

“If he considers us a threat, gathers a meeting of the chiefs of staff of European countries and Britain, says that it is necessary to use nuclear weapons, to prepare for the use of nuclear weapons against Russia, this is certainly a threat,” Lavrov stated.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly emphasized Russia has no intention of invading any other nation or trying to resurrect the Soviet Union. It has been having trouble enough trying to protect endangered Russian-speaking Ukrainians in Eastern Ukraine for the past three years.

There has been no evidence indicating Russia is planning or even capable of invading and conquering other nations, but it has been forced to prepare to repel possible attacks in response to increasing hostility and unwillingness to dialogue from Western globalist leaders.

Reliable analysts have emphasized that the CIA and other deep state entities in the U.S. and Europe, in order to justify their massive military spending and Russian regime change goal, are the ones who have been spreading false rumors that Russia has expansionist objectives.

Putin referred to Macron’s comments with a warning from history:

Some people still can’t sit still. There are still people who want to go back to the times of Napoleon, forgetting how it ended.

In a further sign that the U.S. is pursuing peace independently of the Europeans, Trump has suspended all military aid to Ukraine and cut off U.S. intelligence sharing, moves which dramatically reduce the war fighting capability of the Zelensky regime.

The EU-led initiative to fund European rearmament comes days after U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer called for a “coalition of the willing” to send troops to Ukraine and continue the supply of arms – whilst talk increases of Zelensky himself being replaced.

“We have to learn from the mistakes of the past, we cannot accept a weak deal which Russia can breach with ease, instead any deal must be backed by strength,” Starmer said, while failing to mention any nations actually willing to join his initiative. So far, none have – though suggestions have been made.

Western nations have been the ones breaching one agreement after another with Russia. Some of those are the promise to not expand NATO “one inch eastward” at the time of the dissolution of the Soviet Union, plus the April 1,2022 Ukraine/Russia initialed agreement in Istanbul to end the Ukraine war, among others.

Starmer’s claim to place “boots on the ground, and planes in the air” did not attract any pledges of support from any European nation. A U.K. deal was signed agreeing to a “loan” of over £1.5 billion ($1.94 billion approx.) to permit Ukraine to purchase British missiles, which have not yet been manufactured and could not in fact be aimed or fired without U.S. intelligence and guidance systems.

Starmer’s bold statements produced a stern response from Russia, whose chief diplomat reminded the world that any placement of NATO troops in Ukraine would be seen as a declaration of war.

Speaking ahead of yesterday’s EU-led Ukraine summit, Lavrov told reporters in Moscow, “We see no room for compromise,” explaining that sending European troops to Ukraine would mean the “undisguised involvement of NATO countries in a war against the Russian Federation. It’s impossible to allow this.”

Responding to Macron’s televised address, Lavrov added that Macron wished to “fight Russia,” explaining the thinking behind the French president’s outburst:

They said directly “We need to conquer Russia, we need to defeat Russia.”

He [Macron] apparently wants the same thing, but for some reason he says that we need to fight Russia so that it does not defeat France.

Rhetoric and reality

The reality of European and British military capability is simply not reflected in any of these statements. Reports over the last few years have consistently shown that there is in fact no realistic European military power to confront the Russians.

Germany’s leading academic authority on its army has said that Europe’s depleted armed forces would be “washed away” by Russia in weeks, and that it could take at least 15 years before Germany was ready for war.

Speaking at a Berlin defense conference in November 2023, German historian Sönke Neitzel told military chiefs that in the case of a war with Russia, Germany’s soldiers “can only die” in a war they will certainly lose:

We are going to stand by the coffins at the soldiers’ graves and we are going to be asked: “What have you done?” We will have to explain to the mothers and the fathers why the soldiers could not fulfill their jobs. And at the moment we can only die gallantly if there’s a war.

Neitzel warned that men will be sent to certain death by their political leaders:

It’s very clear: if our armed forces are going to fight, they will die without drones, air defenses, without enough supplies. Are we now clear enough on our message [to Germany’s leaders]? They are going to die and it’s your responsibility.

In an updated report published March 7, Bloomberg reports that Europe’s “undersized and fragmented” forces would run out of ammunition within days and cannot manufacture sufficient gunpowder.

“Europe’s Defenses Risk Faltering Within Weeks Without US Support” the report says, noting that, “If attacked, Europe’s ammunition stockpiles could run low within days and rearming will take years.”

A report from the U.K.’s Guardian noted last week that the EU “spends more on Russian oil and gas than financial aid to Ukraine,” saying it had purchased “22 billion euros of fossil fuels” in 2024, against “19 billion in aid” to Kiev.

Real war not realistic

Why are EU and British leaders talking war with no realistic chance of fighting one? U.S. moves to scale down and possibly withdraw from NATO spell the end of the alliance, of course, but the wider implications are obvious for the remaining liberal-globalist governments.

Britain, France, Germany, and the EU itself are led by a political establishment whose only hope of unity is in forging a war coalition in a battle they cannot win. As the “Russianist” Professor Gilbert Doctorow has noted, this spells doom for a liberal coalition which has decided to oppose the United States.

“We have moved on from observations of people like myself from the sidelines saying that the leadership in Europe is not living in the real world but they’re living in a bubble,” Doctorow told Judge Napolitano this week.

“What we have now is the end game – and they have created it for themselves.”

The Ukraine war was never going to be won, and a new war between Russia and the liberals of Europe likewise has no basis in military reality. The moves by these failing states is a desperate bid for unity and relevance in a world which no longer corresponds to their values.

Alone among 27 EU member states in opposing increased arms supplies to Ukraine is Hungary. Its leader, Viktor Orbán, famously defined the values of the liberal order as “LGBT, open borders, and war.”

To protect itself from the widespread rejection of these “values” and the globalist agenda they project, the British and EU liberals have implemented totalitarian restrictions on free speech – and even thought and prayer – and have effectively suspended democracy in refusing to respect the results of elections while dramatically increasing digital surveillance and censorship efforts to maintain control of a narrative which has parted company with reality.

The EU initiative to do so is ridiculously called “The European Democracy Shield.”

 

As Doctorow told Judge Napolitano, it can only be a matter of time before the pro-war parties without an army part company with political power, too. The outbreak of peace is fatal to them, as these leaders have all invested their political capital in the black hole of crime and corruption which is another ugly dimension of reality to the failed proxy war in Ukraine.

Leaders like Von der Leyen, Macron, and Starmer do not fear the lights going out all over Europe. They fear the illumination of the darkness they have used their nations’ wealth to fund in Ukraine, which has been defended by years of outrageous lies. Having fought so long to keep their nations in the dark, the European liberal order is panicked into talk of Armageddon by the fear of the lights coming on at last. It is the end of their world that is nigh. Not ours.
