Alina Habba appears with Larry Kudlow to describe the events that took place within the courtroom as President Trump delivered expert testimony on real estate, property evaluations and the financial statement he signed.

 

As Ms. Habba notes, President Trump was delivering a masterclass in New York real estate that ran counter to the narrative created by the Lawfare group. Judge Engoron wanted to silence President Trump during his testimony as the evidence ran counter to the effort and showed President Trump’s business acumen. WATCH:

Tucker Carlson and Glenn Greenwald Discuss the Current Status of the Ukraine Conflict

 

November 7, 2023 | Sundance |

Glenn Greenwald and Tucker Carlson sit down and discuss the status of the current “war” in Ukraine. The subject of the reality around the war comes as a consequence of several media outlets who have begun writing about the State Dept and CIA looking for an exit from World War Reddit. WATCH:

 

According to sources who are speaking to NBC News, U.S. and EU officials are gently beginning to talk to Ukraine government officials about what steps might need to be taken to bring an end to the Ukraine-Russia war. Obviously, for those who do not pretend, we all know the decision to end this conflict comes down to the USA telling Ukraine President Zelenskyy to open peace talks with Russia.

Moldova set to become victim of Western colonialism – Moscow

The leaders of the EU-aspirant country want to sacrifice its sovereignty, says Nikolay Patrushev of the Russian Security Council

 

The government of Moldova wants to subjugate the country to the West, Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolay Patrushev warned on Wednesday. This policy is the opposite of what its people want, he claimed.

“The leadership of Moldova under Western pressure and in defiance of the opinion of its people has taken the course to joining the EU, Romanianization, rejection of sovereignty and national identity,” the senior official said at an intragovernmental meeting in Moscow.

“In essence, Moldova risks becoming a new victim of the Western colonialist policy,”he told his counterparts from the Commonwealth of Independents States (CIS), a regional organization that includes former parts of the USSR.

Moldova is a CIS member, but has been distancing itself from the group under the leadership of President Maia Sandu. The politician, who has dual Moldovan-Romanian citizenship, is a critic of Russia and an avowed supporter of joining the EU.

Sandu’s Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS) suffered a major blow at the ballot boxlast Sunday, when its candidates for mayors and county administrators were overwhelmingly rejected by voters.In more than 600 elections, opposition parties wonin the first round, according to the authorities. Some 265 communities will pick their leaders in the second round on November 19.

 

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called the outcome an “unflattering judgment on the dead-end course pursued by the ruling party.”

She noted that the defeat had come despite an “unprecedented campaign of repression of the opposition and independent media,direct blackmail of voters, discrimination against candidates based on their spoken language, and even a direct ban of the competition.”

During the meeting of security chiefs, Patrushev said this was a “period when the process of the destruction of the West-centered world order becomes inevitable.” An increasing number of countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America are becoming more assertive in defending national interests, he stated.

Simultaneously, the US and its allies “seek to dictate their interests to economically and politically dependent nations more aggressively,” according to Patrushev. The West openly applies double standards to justify its hegemonic policies, he said.

“While it encourages crimes committed by the Kiev regime andturns a blind eye on the violations of law and human rights in Moldova, they condemn Russia and Belarus, demand investigations in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and arbitrarily impose unilateral restrictions,”he added.

 

(President Maia Sandu got in by another color revolution sponsored by Victoria Nuland with the help of Nina Jancowicz and Christine Pushaw, spokeswoman of Ron DeSatanist in 2020.)

US plotting color revolution in Moldova after presidential polls — Russian intel chief

According to the director of Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service, the incumbent head of state, Igor Dodon, is out of favor with Washington

"We see clearly now (following the developments in Belarus and Kyrgyzstan) that the Americans are plotting a revolutionary scenario for Moldova, which will elect its president in November. They are not satisfied with the incumbent head of state, Igor Dodon, who supports constructive relations with CIS countries, including Russia," as follows from his statement posted by the service’s press office.

"We have information that a team of US color revolution strategists is on their way to Moldova. Their mission is quite clear," he specified.

 

He stressed that the United States continues to flagrantly meddle in the domestic affairs of countries that border Russia and are friendly towards Moscow. "Blatant attempts to influence the post-election situation continue in Belarus and Kyrgyzstan," he said.

 

(Nuland couldn’t wait to get another country in Europethat were ethnic run countries not wanting the control of the EU. Moldova was an allie of Russia, with many Russians and Russian speaking citizens; and it holds important territory next to a country that has many of Russia’s nuclear arsenal. Right after the Color Revolution in the 2020 presidential election in the US.)

Scholz unveils major immigration reform

The German chancellor’s plan envisages easier deportations and the possibility of establishing processing centers outside the EU

 

Germany is to tighten its immigration laws andmay begin processing asylum applicants in third countries outside of the European Union, Chancellor Olaf Scholz has announced. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni revealed earlier this week that Rome is going to build such a holding facility in Albania. (He’s usingTrump’s plan, remain in Mexico, these idiots hated Trump and opposed him on everything. Kek)

 

Emerging from marathon nine-hour-long talks with regional leaders into the early hours of Tuesday, Chancellor Scholz hailed the agreed-on measures as a “historic moment.” He named the restriction of “irregular migration” as his cabinet’s objective. He also pledged that the federal government would support regional authorities with respect to receiving immigrants. Those who’ve been denied the right to stay in Germany, especiallyoffenders and criminals, will be deportedback to their home countries more swiftly, Scholz said, with Berlin actively negotiating with several nations of origin. (He’ll use the same tactics asTrump plan, threaten those countries with monetary punishment if they don’t take them back.)

 

According to the chancellor, all court processes for asylum eligibility will now take no longer than six months. To speed matters up, the government will also introduce more digital solutions. The plan also calls for areduction of cash paymentsto registered arrivals and a longer wait before they can access full welfare allowances, increasing from 18 months to 36.

 

In addition, asylum seekers with a good prospect of being granted refugee status will be integrated more rapidly into the country’s labor market, with the government earmarking more resources for professional and language courses.

 

The chancellor also revealed that his government would look into whether it’s possible toprocess asylum applications in third countries, outside of Europe. In the meantime, German authorities would continue to monitor the country’s borders with Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria and Switzerland, he added, to prevent migrants from entering illegally.

 

Among other measures unveiled by Scholz is a decision tolimit the right to family reunificationfor individuals who do not qualify as refugees but who still have subsidiary protection status. (Trump planstop Family chain migration)

 

According to Berlin’s figures, between January and September this year the number of applicants for residency rose by about 73% compared to the same period last year. This statistic, however, does not include Ukrainian refugees, over one million of whom have arrived in Germany since February 2022.

 

On Monday, Italian Prime Minister Meloni announced that her government had sealed a deal with Albania for the creation of a processing center there, which is expected to handle up to 36,000 applicants annually.

 

The newsriled humanitarian and human-rights groups, with the International Rescue Committee describing the deal as “dehumanizing.”

 

According to the Guardian, citing EU officials, the arrangement has also ruffled more than a few feathers in Brussels.

 

(Of course EU would oppose it, the EU was supposed to be an economic council, now its turned into an “unnamed, un-voted for Government over Sovereign Countries. The EU will fall apart soon, it literally can not take in more countries.)

West has lost billions trying ‘to teach Russia a lesson’ – Lavrov

Sanctions designed to hurt Moscow are destroying the global economy, the foreign minister says

 

EU businesses havelost at least €250 billion ($266.6 billion)due to the sweeping sanctions imposed on Moscow, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated on Wednesday.

 

According to the top diplomat, these are “very conservative estimates” of the damage that the West has inflicted on its own businesses over the past year-and-a-half by introducing unilateral sanctions.

 

Russia-EU trade turnover totaled $200 billion in 2022 and is expected to drop to less than $100 billion by the end of 2023, according to the Foreign Ministry.

 

The latest ministry estimates show that mutual trade between Russia and EU member states, which totaled $417 billion in 2013, could have reached $700 billion this year were it not for the sanctions.

 

Speaking at a Ukraine-related meeting with the heads of diplomatic missions in Moscow, Lavrov said that, while the EU shows no sign of reversing its policies, Russia is creating independent trade mechanisms.

 

“We understand perfectly well that the sanctions imposed against us will not go away in the foreseeable future, and even in the longer term. We don’t need this, not because we choose isolationism or self-sufficiency.The West decided to destroy the world economy for the sake of teaching Russia a lesson,” he said.

 

Lavrov stressed that Russia will rely “exclusively” on itself in strategic areas. According to Lavrov, the country is now building up new transport corridors and supply chains that will be “beyond the control of malicious influence” from the West.

 

Many economists worldwide have repeatedly emphasized that Western sanctions have failed to achieve the declared goal of destabilizing Russia and its economy. While the Russian economy initially suffered a downturn as a result of restrictions last year, it has now largely recovered after redirecting trade to the East, according to the Finance Ministry.

 

Thus far, the EU has introduced11 sanctions packagesagainst Russia over its military operation in Ukraine. The number of restrictions has reached tens of thousands, although officials in the EU and US have repeatedly admitted that the negative impact of the penalties on Russia has not been as significant as expected.

Bombshell: Trump had active security clearance when Jack Smith indicted him in documents case…

 

November 7, 2023 (a day ago)

The sham classified documents case that Jack Smith is spearheading against President Trump has encountered acouple of very significant setbacks in recent days—setbacks so severe that they have the potential to derail the entire case.President Trump says he has evidence that the Biden administration colluded with various federal agencies to arm Jack Smithwith the ammunition for his indictment. Furthermore, he has disclosed an additional bombshell that could once again shake the foundation of the case.

 

The paperwork shows that President Trump maintained an active security clearance at the very time when Jack Smith indicted him in the documents case—a fact the Biden regime was well aware of.

Independent investigative journalist Julie Kelly disclosed the specifics in her post on the platform X. Here’s what Julie said:

 

And then this tidbit.A few weeks after the indictment was handed down, someone at Biden’s DOE noticed Trump still had security clearance for that agencyand sent a memo saying his clearance should be removed. pic.twitter.com/cjCu9VJ3gI

— Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 (@julie_kelly2) November 3, 2023

 

Here’s a closeup of the image Julie shared:

 

The twist in the story is that President Trump’s security clearance was revoked after discovery of the documents following a change in the status of those documents. It was on Biden’s request that NARA withdrew Trump’s privileges–a request that was granted. After, the documents were reclassified, providing the basis for the raid on Mar-a-Lago.The underlying objective all along was to seize incriminating documents from the Crossfire Hurricane investigation, destroy President Trump and fix the 2024 U.S. election.

 

(Don’t all President’s have an ongoing security clearance? I would imagine that it could be illegal to withdraw his security clearance.)

After you see Letitia James’ net worth, you’ll wonder why SHE isn’t the one being investigated…

 

Letitia James secured her election by pledging to target President Trump, with the promise of “destroying” him. She didn’t vow to destroy crime or keep families safe from the bad guys and thugs plaguing New York City streets. Instead, she vowed to take down the regime’s biggest political enemy.

 

This should give you a clear picture of the Democrat Party, the current state of our nation, and the escalating crime rates. Currently, she’s attempting to fulfill her campaign promise through a politically charged witch hunt. However, it’s becoming increasingly clear that dismantling someone accused of exaggerated crimes is no easy task.

 

In the meantime, numerous individuals are raisingsignificant questions about Ms. James’s finances, pondering how she allegedly acquired a net worth of 15 million dollarson a civil servant’s salary of just over $100k per year.

 

A user on the platform X known as “Travis in Flint” made this powerful post about Letitia’s alleged financial situation:

 

Meet Letitia James, current AG of New York whose primary focus is getting Donald Trump. She claims Donald Trump uses his status to overvalue his properties and secure better loan terms.

 

In 2010 her alleged net worth was $100,000. From2013-2018 she served as the New York City public advocatewhose job was to protect citizens and advocate for them. While doing that job, somehow hernet worth allegedly went from $100,000 all the way up to $5 million.

 

Since becoming AG her net worth is now estimated to be around $15 million. How does she do it? Well, that’s the most ironic part of all of this. She owns a ton of property and many have even complained that she was able to get them way under fair market value. She says this was because she has such a keen eye and deep understanding of real estate.

 

In what world does the media ignore an elected official who owns a ton of property that she got at amazing deals investigating the leading Presidential candidate?

 

It’s obvious now why she was chosen for this job!

 

Speculation is all over the place regarding how Letitia James possibly came into such a substantial windfall. If this is al true, she’s a millionaire 15 times over. Here’s the prevailing belief about what transpired:

 

Letitia James: Net Worth: $15 Million Annual income: $4 million

 

Other income: $3.9 Million

 

Stock portfolio: $2.6 million

 

Salary: $103,375 per year

 

What does it say about our media when they exhibit zero interest in an elected official who seems to be targeting political adversaries for a corrupt regime and who is allegedly amassing a fortune from a string of “real estate” transactions—the very activity for which she’s attacking Trump?

 

It tells us that a media that is disinterested in pursuing any narrative outside the one approved by the regime is a media that can never be trusted. And regrettably, when the press lacks the curiosity to investigate all angles, the result is predictable: the bad actors run wild.

Scott Adams finally unravels the Bill Maher “TDS” mystery…

November 7, 2023 (a day ago)

 

Some folks on our side are under the impression that HBO talk show host Bill Maher could be an “ally” for our cause. But let’s be clear:Bill is the epitome of what you’d call “controlled opposition.” Sure, he criticizes the excesses of the Democrats, yet he never misses a chance to steer his audience toward voting for them. Wrapped up in Bill’s political spiel is a severe case of Stage 5 TDS—Trump Derangement Syndrome.

 

Scott Adams, the man behind the “Dilbert” comic strip, has been fascinated by how someone as intelligent and savvy as Maher could be so profoundly afflicted by TDS. With some reflection and digging around, Scott believes he’s unraveled the mystery. Here’s what Scott said in his X post, where he cleverly figured out exactly why Bill Maher has Stage 5 TDS:

 

The Bill Maher mystery is finally explained here to my satisfaction.

 

Mystery: How could a guy as smart as Maher have such bad TDS?

 

Answer: Evidently, Maher’s news sources are insanely limited.

 

Bill believes a Russian budget of $100K and some highschool quality memes that no one saw can sway an election. (The memes included anti-Trump and anti-Hillary memes.)

 

Bill believes that Paul Manafort sharing some stale internal polling data with a Russian Billionaire (while scamming him) swayed an election.

 

Bill was not aware that Hillary REPEATEDLY claimed the 2016 election was rigged. As did many in the Democrat party.

 

Summary: It’s an information problem. Bill’s brain appears to be fully functional, but criminally misinformed.

 

Scott Adams really hit the mark, and not just regarding Bill Maher but for many who’ve been indoctrinated with relentless absurd propaganda to loathe Trump. It’s no wonder the media is labeled the “enemy of the people.” Their tireless efforts to push regime-sanctioned propaganda, sow division, and transform the airwaves into a weapon.

 

Bill Maher is a particularly worrisome figure because he masquerades as the pinnacle of rational thought and ethical integrity with his criticism of the “woke” culture. Yet, in truth, Bill serves as a proxy, reassuring moderate Democrats about their radical party by simultaneously pushing an anti-woke stance and perpetuating baseless anti-Trump nonsense.Ultimately, Bill’s aim is to keep Democrats in control, whether they subscribe to woke ideologies or not, and this agenda is what makes him particularly treacherous and certainly no ally to those who value genuine discourse and freedom.

CNN finally throws in the towel on the Ukraine War…

November 7, 2023 (a day ago)

The big story making the rounds right now involves the conflict in Ukraine and how it has hit a dead end. The White House’s efforts failed, confirming what many of us already knew. A vast number of Americans saw through the façade and viewed the conflict as a colossal money-laundering scheme rather than a genuine war. Despite a relentless propaganda blitz by the US and global media, the reality that Zelensky was outgunned by Putin was obvious. And now, to really seal the deal, a high-ranking Ukrainian general has acknowledged a “stalemate,” effectively signaling a deadlocked scenario and a no-win situation.

 

France 24:

Ukraine’s General Valery Zaluzhny surprised observers of the invasion this week with an unusually candid assessment that the warring parties had reached a deadlock along the sprawling front.

 

“Just like in the First World War, we have reached the level of technology that puts us into a stalemate,” he told the British magazine, The Economist.

 

“There will most likely be no deep and beautiful breakthrough.”

 

‘New approaches needed’

The comments poured cold water on the highly-touted counteroffensive that Ukraine launched this summer after stockpiling Western weapons and training new recruits.

 

But the push gained little ground and AFP journalists found last month that Ukraine was still battling Russian forces in one key village it had claimed to recapture weeks earlier.

 

In response to Zaluzhny’s comments, a senior Ukrainian official told AFP the country was facing a turning point, and would need to decide on a strategy on how to win the conflict with Russia.

 

Instead of calling for peace talks, Ukraine wants our fighter jets. The France 24 piece goes on.

 

Presidential aide Mykhailo Podolyak meanwhile conceded in turn that this period of fighting had run into “difficulties”.

 

And Oleksiy Danilov, the head of Ukraine’s security council, acknowledged that, “new approaches are needed.”

 

Ukrainian forces have urged Western allies to provide F-16 fighters jets and long range missiles as infantry crash into deep Russian defensive lines they have struggled to penetrate.

 

“We have problems with too many issues. First, the quality of training for our soldiers. Second, we don’t have enough weapons or artillery,” a 33-year-old Ukrainian serviceman near Bakhmut told AFP.

 

“We’re starved for artillery and it’s getting worse,” said the soldier, who goes by “Dan”.

 

The situation has reached a point where even CNN, in an unexpected turn of events, has resorted to what they’ve long avoided—they’ve conceded to the grim realities and, surprisingly, reported the truth. Popular X account “KanekoaTheGreat” posted an eye-opening video recently, underscoring what many of us have known all along: Ukraine didn’t stand a chance, and the funds we’ve poured in were probably siphoned off for the elite’s gain.

 

JUST IN: CNN reports that the Ukraine war is an unwinnable stalemate, contradicting recent Biden administration statements.

 

John Kirby: “It’s not a stalemate. They’re not just frozen. The Ukrainians are moving.”

 

Jake Sullivan: “We do not assess that the conflict is a stalemate. We are seeing it continue to take territory on a methodical, systematic basis.”

 

Tony Blinken: “We’ve seen the progress on the counter-offensive. It’s very heartening.”

 

CNN’s report follows TIME Magazine’s cautionary cover story, revealing Zelensky’s closest advisors believe that the war is unwinnable, labeling Zelensky as “delusional” and painting corruption as rampant.

 

With even CNN reporting the stark reality of the war, how can the Biden administration and Congress continue to justify sending billions in military aid to Ukraine?

 

Watch:

( https://x.com/KanekoaTheGreat/status/1720588620640489750?s=20

As Americans grapple with soaring crime rates and escalating living expenses, alongside the invasion at our borders, the Biden regime, fully aware Ukraine didn’t stand a chance, has continued funneling billions into a notoriously corrupt country with zero oversight. Now, following this bleak report, it’s likely that Biden will insist struggling American taxpayers dig deeper into their pockets to fortify foreign borders and line the pockets of countless elites.

Pentagon UFO boss to step down next month

11/7/23

 

“I’m ready to move on. I have accomplished everything I said I was going to do,” Sean Kirkpatrick said. (Disinformation Done!)

 

Sean M. Kirkpatrick, director of the Defense Department’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, appears before a subcommittee of the Senate Armed Services Committee on April 19, 2023.

Kirkpatrick’s deputy, Tim Phillips, will lead the office in an acting role until the Pentagon hires a permanent replacement, Kirkpatrick said.

 

A physicist, Kirkpatrick took on the role at AARO after spending decades in a variety of scientific jobs for the military.

 

Kirkpatrick’s tenure has been marked by a high level of public and congressional interest in the issue of UFOs and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. The Biden administration established the office in July 2022, under Kirkpatrick’s leadership, to look into the unidentified craft military pilots have increasingly reported seeing in the skies, and whether they posed a threat to national security. Since then, Kirkpatrick has investigated more than 800 cases.

 

AARO has been in the news frequently in the last few months, including for its role in helping the U.S. detect a fleet of Chinese surveillance balloons.

 

Kirkpatrick himself made headlines this summer when he fired back at a whistleblower’s explosive claim that the government is covering up a decadeslong program to reverse-engineer alien craft. AARO has not uncovered any evidence to support the claim, Kirkpatrick said at the time, calling the comments “insulting.”

 

The whistleblower, retired Air Force intelligence officer Maj. David Grusch, has refused multiple requests to interview with AARO, Kirkpatrick said.

 

Lawmakers, witnesses and UFO enthusiasts, however, have continued to criticize what they call a lack of transparency from the government regarding the phenomenon.

A Biden alum makes history in Rhode Island

Gabe Amo will be the first person of color to represent the state in Congress.

 

Madison Fernandez11/07/2023, 8:19pm

Gabe Amo will soon be Rhode Island’s first person of color in Congress after handily winning a special election for its 1st Congressional District.

 

Amo defeated Republican Marine Corps veteran and political newcomer Gerry Leonard, according to The Associated Press. The two were vying to fill the seat vacated by former Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.), who left Congress earlier this year to run the Rhode Island Foundation, a philanthropic organization in the state.

 

Amo is a former White House aide and touted his experience in the Biden and Obama administrations throughout the campaign. He also leaned into messaging that Democrats across the country have used successfully over the last year and are hoping will have the same salience in 2024: supporting abortion rights, providing a contrast to “extreme” Republicans, protecting Social Security and Medicare and advocating for gun safety.

 

When asked what lessons from his race could be applied to 2024, he told POLITICO after his win: “Ultimately, telling the stories of our success: investing in people and places, the historic agenda that President Biden has put forward, but also focusing on people's real concerns about whether government is working for them."

 

Those messages were shared with a friendly audience. Amo was widely expected to prevail in the deep-blue district covering the Democratic strongholds of Providence, Newport and Bristol counties that voted for President Joe Biden by double digits in 2020. Rhode Island hasn’t sent a Republican to Congress in decades. Still, Amo was active on the trail in the lead-up to the general election.

 

The most competitive part of the race happened in September, when Amo prevailed over nearly a dozen other Democrats — including progressive forces running to his left — in the primary. During the primary, national Democrats backing him included the Congressional Black Caucus, Democrats Serve PAC, former White House chief of staff Ron Klain and former Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.).

 

“I think I’m in a unique position, having just worked in the Biden administration,” Amo said at a recent debate. “I’m not your average freshman.” (Cheating happened)

Ahead of Miami Debate, Donald Trump Leads Florida GOPe Field with 60% of Primary Vote

 

November 7, 2023 | Sundance |

The University of North Florida [DATA HERE] shows President Donald Trump with a solid 60% of the primary vote ahead of Wednesday’s debate among ‘first-loser’ candidates.

 

The question consistently posed is why any Republican candidate would continue trying to undermine the clear leader of the Florida voter.The answer is quite simple, the remaining field is not trying to win the GOP nomination, but rather to undermine, damage and work on behalf of their multinational donors to block Trump – no matter the consequence.

 

(UNF POLL) – A new poll from the University of North Florida’s Public Opinion Research Lab asked likely Republican primary voters across Florida their preferences in the 2024 presidential primary. When given a list of possible candidates, 60% of respondents indicated a vote for Donald Trump, followed by 21% for Ron DeSantis in a distant second place. Nikki Haley came in third with 6%, followed by Chris Christie with 2%, and Vivek Ramaswamy with 1%. The remaining candidates each received less than 1%. Eight percent of respondents said they do not know or refused to answer. For the full list of candidates in the answer choices, please see the survey crosstabulations.

 

When asked to choose between DeSantis and Trump in a hypothetical head-to-head race, 59% of respondents said they would vote for Trump, with 29% for DeSantis, and 12% who don’t know or refused. (read more)

 

Clearly, Florida voters continue to see through the charade represented by Ron DeSantis since his May announcement to enter the race. There is clear voter backlash in the state toward DeSantis that was not anticipated by the handlers of the Florida governor.

 

The backlash is related more to the Florida Republican base increasingly identifying the background motive of DeSantis that was visible long before he made his announcement.For DeSantis to be losing his own state by such a margin reflects the ability of the Florida voter to see through the astroturf and manipulation that was carried out as part of the operation.

 

President Trump has chosen not to engage in the debate Wednesday; instead he will be holding a rally in Hialeah.

 

We can anticipate that Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis will be desperate to achieve the coveted first-loser position.

 

(DeSadist thinks he/they can revive his standing, they are not reading the room or the nation. There’s no way back for this jackass. He’s at the level of Pence as a traitor.)

Kremlin warns West of ‘serious costs’ if assets seized

Lawmakers in Washington want Russian funds to be used as aid for Ukraine

 

The US will face serious consequences if it confiscates frozen Russian assets and sends them to Ukraine, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov warned on Wednesday.

 

The US House Foreign Affairs Committee on Tuesday approved a draft law dubbed the ‘REPO for Ukrainians Act’, which would authorize the president to confiscate frozen Russian assets in American jurisdiction, with the exception of diplomatic property. The secretary of state would then be able to use the money to fund humanitarian aid and reconstruction efforts by Ukraine.

 

Speaking to journalists, Peskov described any such step as “illegal” and “contrary to all possible rules.” He added that it would “result in serious court and judicial costs for those who would take such decisions and implement them.”

 

Russian retaliation “will likely not be tit-for-tat, but the one that serves our interests in the best way,” the Kremlin spokesman stated, noting that the US move “would, of course, be contested, and contested indefinitely by our country.

 

The bill, which was approved by 40 members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, presents the expropriation as an enforcement of Russia’s obligations to compensate damage suffered by Ukraine.

 

“The confiscation and repurposing of Russian sovereign assets by the United States is in the vital national security interests of the United States,” the document claimed.

 

Under the proposal, Russian assets could also be used to support “the welfare of the people of Ukraine.” The draft law does not specify what kind of spending would qualify.

 

TheUS and its allies have frozen an estimated $300 billion worth of Russian sovereign assetsas part of their campaign to punish Moscow. There have been numerous calls to confiscate the money and donate it to Kiev, although some Western officials have cautioned that such a move would be illegal. The sponsors of the US bill claim otherwise.

 

Russia has branded the freezing of its assets as an act of theft and has argued that it undermines Western global influence.

 

“The fact that they froze our foreign exchange reserves – well, we’ve earned twice as much already.It’s not about this $300 billion, it’s about the erosion of trust in those who behave that way,” Russian President Vladimir Putin said in September.

 

Nations that value their sovereignty and have concerns over possible Western reprisals are increasingly avoiding Western-controlled financial instruments and mechanisms, according to the Russian leadership.

Putin says Russia, China not creating military alliances

 

The Russian leader noted that the two countries are cooperating quite effectively in the economic sphere

 

MOSCOW, November 8. /TASS/. Moscow and Beijing are not forming anymilitary alliances on the model of Cold War alliances, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at a meeting with Vice Chairman of China’s Central Military Commission Zhang Youxia.

 

"Russia and China are not building military alliances on the model of Cold War alliances. And our interaction with you is constructive and a serious factor in stabilizing the international situation," the Russian president pointed out.

 

Putin noted that the two countries are cooperating quite effectively in the economic sphere. "Trade and economic relations are developing at a good pace. We are achieving our goals ahead of schedule, we’re working on international platforms, in international organizations, first of all in the UN," he said, listing the areas of cooperation.

 

According to the Russian president, Moscow and Beijing are paying sufficient attention to regional platforms, which are "becoming more and more global." He explained that he was referring to the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and BRICS.

 

Putin recalled that Russia will chair the BRICS in 2024. "And we very much expect that together with our Chinese friends we will promote the agenda that seems to us the most expedient and promising and will meet the interests of all member countries of this association," the Russian head of state summed up.

 

(Weird wording…)
