🇷🇺🇺🇦 Rapid Collapse of Ukraine’s Kursk Area of Operation (via pro-Ukrainian map)
▪️This was the inevitable result of Russia’s strategy of attrition grinding down overextended Ukrainian forces in Kursk as well as weakening Ukrainian defenses across the rest of the line of contact;
▪️Despite the US posing as “ending support” for Ukraine, most of it has been shifted to Europe, some of it is still provided by the US (Starlink) – the problem was never a will to supply support, it was the fact there was nothing left to supply that could make a difference;
▪️As Secretary Rubio claims he wants Ukraine to make concessions, the only real concession that actually truly ends this conflict for Russia is in regards to the threat NATO poses, which is a decision only the US can make – it has chosen to expand it instead;
▪️Russia’s choice is either to continue operations or agree to what is essentially Misnk 3.0;

Everything that is happening now in Saudi Arabia can be assessed from different process levels and several angles. The deepest cut is the general confrontation of globalist elites and the American Deep State with the national forces that came to power in the USA. The next level is the pushing through of their goals by these national forces. And on the very surface is the wriggling of the “Zhmerinka diplomatic school”.

The Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) has accused the UK of being the “main instigator of global conflict,” comparing its actions to those taken “on the eve of the two world wars of the last century.”
According to the SVR, “the British leadership sees a threat to its interests in the promotion of dialogue between the US and Russia to resolve the Ukrainian conflict,” prompting them to “undermine ‘peacekeeping’ efforts of the new US administration on the Ukrainian track.”
The statement further claimed that the “media and specialized NGOs are tasked with demonizing Trump, portraying him as ‘a man with a poor peacekeeping record and susceptible to Kremlin manipulation.’”
SVR’s statement concluded by shedding light on that “behind the scenes, British politicians admit” that their “loud promises to send rockets, troops and aviation to Ukraine” may be “ado about nothing” without continued US support.

Pete Hegseth displays an utter ignorance of reality and an ideologically-blinded worldview combined with a view of himself as a holy warrior against the Godless Commies (China) and Islam. He was a high school valedictorian and American football player before becoming an undergraduate at Princeton (politics, graduating in 2003). There he played in the university basketball team, was editor-in-chief of a conservative newspaper and declared that he would “defend the pillars of Western civilization against the distractions of diversity.” He also joined the US armed services through the Reserve Officers Training Core.

Many people have become so distracted with debates over the process DOGE is overseeing in exposing and eliminating US government fraud, waste, and abuse, that no one is focused on its purpose. The current US administration has declared its intention to uphold the irrational and unwarranted pursuit of US dominance over the globe and is merely attempting to sharpen and streamline the tools available to do so more efficiently.

As predicted, USAID was never “dismantled,” simply streamlined into a more effective tool of foreign interference.
I warned over the past weeks that ALL of the organizations mentioned in my research remain operational and fully funded.
Now US Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirms after significant cuts, remaining USAID programs continue receiving funding. Same will go for NED.
America isn’t picking peace over primacy. It’s trying to make fighting weight as it realizes the difficulty it will have reasserting itself over nations like Russia and China.

AN ANNOUNCEMENT from Denmark illustrates the danger of allowing the market to dictate service provision.
PostNord’s decision to stop delivering letters after 400 years will be seen as the inevitable consequence of technological change. Instead we should see it as the withdrawal of a public service, an example of what may be down the line for other countries, including ours.

The BBC’s withdrawal of the powerful documentary, ‘Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone’, epitomises how much the UK’s national broadcaster is beholden to the Israel lobby.

Last month, in response to the rise of discussions about the Gaza genocide within my local community, a group called Shalom Humboldt published a series of assertions. They put out a letter to the editor that said they were “shocked to read so many lies about Zionism and Judaism” from those who’d been quoted in a recent newspaper article. The context behind this was that pro-Zionist activists within the area had put up a deliberately provocative billboard, which read: “Call me a Zionist, it only makes me prouder.” This prompted many people to accurately describe the billboard’s message as fascist and supremacist, so now Humboldt’s pro-Zionist contingent is trying to retake control of the conversation.

Last night, DHS agents abducted Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian activist and recent Columbia graduate, from his home. Khalil and his wife, a U.S. citizen who is eight months pregnant, had just unlocked the door to their building when two plainclothes DHS agents forced their way in behind them. The agents initially refused to identify themselves, instead asking Khalil to confirm his identity before detaining him without explanation. Khalil is now in ICE detention.
TOMORROW WE TAKE TO THE STREETS!
We demand the immediate release of Mahmoud Khalil. Hands off our students! ICE off our campuses!

NEW YORK CITY—On Saturday night, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agents entered a student residential building at Columbia University in uptown New York and detained Mahmoud Khalil, one of the lead negotiators on behalf of pro-Palestine protesters at 2024’s Gaza solidarity encampment. In a sweeping attack on the First Amendment, the Trump administration said this week it would begin revoking visas of “Hamas sympathizers,” specifically citing Columbia University students. The detention followed a two-day targeted online campaign against Khalil by pro-Israel groups and individuals, including Columbia’s high-profile pro-Israel professor, Shai Davidai.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russian Forces Are at Center of Ukraine’s Kursk Area of Operation According to Pro-Ukrainian Map
▪️Russia has been steadily grinding down Ukrainian positions/shrinking their area of operation in Russia’s Kursk region since the senseless incursion began;
▪️Now pro-Ukrainian Live UA Map indicates Russian forces are present even at the very heart of this area which includes the town of Sudzha, as video evidence of retreating Ukrainian forces emerge;
▪️The Ukrainian conflict is one of attrition Russia has been winning for 3 years, the collapse of Ukraine’s presence in Kursk is inevitable as is the collapse of Ukraine’s defenses along the line of contact;
▪️This is why the US is desperate to freeze, not end the conflict, before a complete collapse takes place across the entire line of contact and why the Trump administration has begun threatening Russia if it doesn’t submit to a ceasefire in a conflict Russia is now decisively winning;

A Declassified UK investigation has uncovered secret meetings between former IOF Chief Aviv Kohavi and top British media executives, including editors from The Guardian, BBC, and Financial Times. Backed by “Israel’s” military and foreign ministry, these talks aimed to shape Western coverage of “Israel’s” war on Gaza as global outrage over the Israeli atrocities grew. Documents revealed a calculated effort to “influence influencers” and sway public opinion to bolster the Israeli narrative, particularly at a time when Israeli military actions were drawing widespread international criticism for human rights violations and acts of genocide.
