Dnipro, Tuesday 21January

Well it seems the world has survived the first 24 hours of Trump. The world hasn't ended, sweeping arrests of liberals haven't been made (I guess after Pedo Joe pardoned just about everyone that's to be expected), and the conflict in Ukraine hasn't yet ended. As I have said many times, Trump has a very mixed report card on his involvement in the conflict in Ukraine, I sincerely hope he has learned his lesson and walks away, concentrating on rebuilding the usa relationship with Russia and China so the three global super powers can sit at the same table. The strength of the Russian / Chinese relationship and their global influence could bring about 100 years of unprecedented peace and prosperity to the rest of the world, despite the globalist neocons, so let's hope Trump is smart enough to sit at the table and become the greatest president the usa has ever had. It's in his control to do so, if only he is smart enough to listen to the right people.

Here in Dnipro though things grind on. A few big missile and drone strikes this morning seem to have removed some more of Ukraine's remaining industrial base, no one is sure what was hit, I heard the strikes were in Pavlograd and if that's true, they were big, as that's 50 km away.

Electrical supply, touch wood, has been manageable the past few weeks, again touching wood, as Russia has not struck Dnipro or the east power generation for a while. I am grateful to President Putin for the humanity, one not on display in Bankova Str or its western enablers.

Everyone I know here has been awaiting Trump, to see what he will do. Not because they want him to continue equipping the army, or funding zelensky, in fact the exact opposite. Everyone knows if usa military and financial aid stops, the war will end that much faster.

There is a lot of mocking of Zelenksy, and a lot of anger growing about missed soldiers, who have not been heard from in months. It is going to be difficult to hide the magnitude of Ukraine's losses much longer, and when the true scale is known, people are going to be very angry.

Had main stream media and the Pedo Joe admin told the truth, this war would have stopped 2 years ago. This war is their war, the destruction and crimes against the Ukrainian people may have been perpetrated by Zelensky, but they are fully owned by the msm and Pedo Joe's bunch of criminals.

Food, fuel and other goods are at normal supplies, the uah has fallen around 5 percent against the usd, that will no doubt change with Trumps 90 day halt to aid, in fact, that halt could bring Ukraine to an end. Let's hope so.

Ambulance traffic in and out of Dnipro is at record highs, they are a constant now, you can not drive 2 minutes on the main road into Dnipro from Kharkiv without one coming hurtling past.

I admit no in-depth knowledge of Ukraine or its history. What I know of it I have learned over the past decade. Mostly because of our (US) meddling in their affairs.

I said after Boris Johnson relayed the message from MI6/CIA to Zelenskyy to fight on and don’t negotiate, it was obvious to a lot of people that the only way this issue is solved is to take all of Ukraine.

MI6/CIA are desperate to break up Russia. Taking all of Ukraine is was and ever shall be the only way Russia survives.

Some People said…the Ukrainians in the west will fight against the Russians. The Europeans counted on it. So they kept pushing until multiple millions of the Ukraine sons were slaughtered after which they realized they just wanted peace which I also said would happen.

Not because I know so much about Ukrainians but rather because I know human nature. Speaking a different language doesn’t make you love your family or your people any less.

I knew at some point this show of defiance would happen. Will ...

FOO IN THE ROOM!

CANADA O CANADA! WITH THOSE U.S. 50% TARIFFS INCREASES HAS ENSURED CARNEY NO LONGER GIVES A RAT'S ASS ABOUT WHAT TRUMP THINKS AND SO DECLARES HE’S ‘AT WAR” WITH THE FOOL ON THE HILL! | US Panics as Canada Sends a FATAL Global Warning - Empire Collapse Begins!

Carney has washed his hands — doing a Pontius Pilate — with Trump and the U.S. Administration in that having trade negotiations with Washington is just spinning its wheels. Ever since Trump got a burr up his ass about Mark Carney
just before Trump took his oath of office on January 20, 2025 it has become one of his daily rituals to bash Carney and Canada in the MSM and on his Truth Social channel to make Carney bend his knee to the DC master-blaster and iiruatingky the Canadian Prime Minister has refuses todo so.

It's the difference between a man who as a seasoned professional understands economic and geo-politics with proven governance, better than a fat-boy who graduated 146th ...

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
