🇺🇸🇺🇦 We are grateful that President Biden gave Ukraine permission to strike Russian military targets. We think Ukraine should take full advantage of these new permissions and strike as many Russian military targets as possible within the next month. We can not give away all of our air defense systems to Ukraine. We do need them in case of an attack. We have a responsibility to always be prepared for an attack. However, we can shoot down Russian missiles and weapons in Ukrainian air space, and w...

🇺🇸🇫🇷 We are grateful to President Macron for organizing a meeting between President Trump and President Zelenskyy. We hop the two were able to develop an effective strategy to ensure Russia's defeat. xo ...

🇺🇸🇬🇧 We are excited that the US and UK will restart trade negotiations. We are also grateful for the UK's support for Ukraine. We must stand together for Ukraine and against Russia and China. Unfortunately, this UK administration seems to believe that China is a friendly nation, when they clearly are not. We hope they will take the Chinese threat more seriously. Sending the China whisperer to the USA is not going to change our minds on this issue. xo Response to: https://www.politico.eu/articl...

🇺🇸🇨🇦 The USA loves Canada. I think President Trump is simply trying to say that many Americans feel like Canada is a part of the USA. We feel very close to the Canadians. We have similar histories and similar values. I think many Americans wish to create a single market with Canada in the future, and we hope Canadians wish for the same. Canada is our largest trading partner in the entire world, and a liberal democracy with very similar values as the USA, so it would be the ideal nation to start ...

🇺🇸🇮🇷 President Trump is clearly referring to Iran in this social media post. ""There will be ALL HELL TO PAY in the Middle East, and for those in charge who perpetrated these atrocities against Humanity'' if all the hostages aren't released by Jan. 20, Trump warned on social media. "Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been hit."" Trump's not referring to Hamas. Hamas has already been hit very hard. Iran better take Trump seriously, and do what he says. No doubt, Trump alread...

🇺🇸🇸🇾 I'm very happy that the Biden administration chose to stay out of the civil war in Syria, and to not take sides. It was best for the USA to not get involved during the fighting. Defending Assad would clearly be a mistake, but defending the rebel group would also have been a mistake because they are also guilty of human rights violations and we really don't know what kind of leaders they will be. We are happy for the Syrian people that the Assad regime is no more. We believe the Syrian peop...

🇺🇸🇮🇱 The USA loves Israel. We are grateful that Israel did not interfere in the Syrian civil war. We support Israel's desire to secure the Golan Heights from the new Syrian regime. We hope that Israel will try to reach out to this rebel group, and try to make peace with Syria. We're happy that Israel has successfully weakened the Iranian regime and it's proxy network of terrorist groups. We believe weakening the Iranian regime is the best way to restore peace and stability in the Middle East. ...

🇮🇱 It's very sad that these organizations that were created to protect human rights around the world are now being used to push the political agenda of the worst human rights abusers in the world. Human Rights Watch claimed Israel was committing an act of genocide long before the war even started, so I don't consider them to be a reliable source on this issue. Israel has successfully defeated many of the terrorist organizations in the Middle East, something that was deemed impossible. Israel...

🇺🇸🇺🇦 The USA loves Ukraine. I agree with every word of this article in the Atlantic. I think President Biden got a lot of bad advice from the Pentagon leadership. Every bad decision that President Biden made was advice that was given to him by the Secretary of Defense. I’m happy to know that the Trump Administration intends to force Russia to negotiate. According to Kellogg, if Russia refuses to negotiate, the USA will increase it’s military support to Ukraine. xo Response to: https://www.thea...

🇺🇸🇷🇴 The USA loves Romania. But we are worried about the country. We are seeing a fondness for Russia in many of the former Soviet territories. This is alarming. I'm concerned that there are too many Russian sympathizers in NATO now.

🇺🇸🇮🇪 The USA loves Ireland. We hope the election results in Ireland means that Ireland will be joining NATO in the near future. As you know, Russia has been very active near Ireland recently, so we think Ireland should reconsider joining the alliance. I’m certain the American multinationals based in Ireland would welcome such a change. xo Response to: https://www.politico.eu/article/ireland-government-simon-harris-fine-gael-micheal-martin-fianna-fail/ Notes: https://www.upstreamonline.com/en...

🇺🇸🇩🇪 The USA loves Germany. I think Merz would be a best suited to work with Trump. I think President Trump was upset with Germany during his first term, because Chancellor Merkel was very combative with him. The two really did not get along very well. I also think Merz is capable of fixing Germany's economy. I don't think President Trump is going to slap tariffs on Germany or the rest of the EU. I believe all President Trump really wants is for Germany and the EU to discuss trade and defense s...

🇺🇸🇫🇷 The USA loves France. We are worried about France right now. We hope France will reach consensus on the budget, so that the government does not fall into chaos. Perhaps the French people could vote on the contested parts of the budget, allowing them to express their will about the budget particulars. This direct democracy tactic would ensure that no party has a valid reason to reject the budget. xo ...

🇺🇸🇬🇧 The USA loves the UK. We wish to have good relations with the UK. We also wish for the UK to have good relations with the EU. We hope to one day create a huge single market, or free trade zone, made up of like-minded, allied nations. xo Response to: https://www.politico.eu/article/keir-starmer-britain-uk-doesnt-have-to-pick-between-donald-trump-us-and-europe/ ...

🇺🇸🇨🇦 The USA loves Canada. I'm happy Prime Minister Trudeau met with President Trump. We are happy they plan to work together to solve the immigration and fentanyl issues. We hope they are focused on Russia and China and the threats they pose in the Arctic. We are happy the two will cooperate with one another to keep Americans and Canadians safe and secure. xo ...

🇺🇸🇲🇽 We hear your concerns, Mexico. We wish to have a very strong relationship with our Southern neighbor, but the relationship must be mutually beneficial. Working closely with the new administration on their objectives like immigration, crime, and fentanyl will be key for Mexico. Mexico has the potential to become a very wealthy nation like Canada and the USA. The key is to work closely with your wealthy neighbors. The more closely you work with them, the more they will trust you. The stronger...

🇺🇸🇮🇱The USA will stand with Israel in their war against terrorism. We wish for the Lebanese to be free from Hezbollah. We hope that Lebanon and Israel will sign a peace treaty and normalize relations with one another. We hope that Israel will ensure that innocent Palestinians have access to humanitarian aid. We also hope that Hamas, whatever is left of the group, will acknowledge their defeat, and end their aggression against Israel, so that Palestinians and Israelis may live in peace. xo ...

🇺🇸🇵🇱 The USA will stand with Poland. Any attacks on US bases in Poland is an attack on the USA. Because of Russia's threats, we believe that Poland and the USA should shoot down any and all missiles coming from Russia to ensure Russia can not strike any location in Poland, and that should include missiles targeted at Ukraine or within Ukrainian airspace. xo ...

🇺🇸🇪🇺 We are happy that the NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte met with President Trump and his National Security Advisor. Our alliance will continue to grow and expand. xo ...

🇨🇳🇧🇷 If China and Brazil truly wanted peace, they wouldn't be aligned with Russian warmongers. Both countries should tell their ally Russia to withdraw from Ukraine and end its aggression against the Ukraine. Russia needs to let the Ukrainians live in peace. xo ...

It's funny how countries in the Global South want us to provide them with funding for climate change, share our medicines and vaccines, share our intellectual property, transfer our tech, invest in their countries, and provide aid to them as well, yet they never cooperate with us on important issues. Why should we assist them when they are so uncooperative? Brazil is a member of BRICS, along with Russia and China, so I'm not expecting the country to help Ukraine in any way, but we will remember...

🇺🇸🏴 Putin is clearly a psychopath. Putin thinks he can invade a country, bombard them with missiles, completely destroy their energy infrastructure, destroy their cultural artifacts, destroy their homes, steal their territory, kidnap their children, and even more atrocious crimes, but he doesn't believe those countries should be able to fight back. Putin hides behind Russia's nuclear arsenal, believing he can wreak havoc on the world, torturing, murdering and poisoning innocent people, and no on...

🇺🇸 The minimum wage hike was rejected in California. Americans know a minimum wage hike will raise the cost of living and raise the poverty line. This should send a clear message to the Democrats that Americans are not interested in their Socialist agenda, not even Californians. While Socialists continue to push the objectives of non-Americans, Liberals know exactly what Americans truly want. It's time for Liberals to lead the Democratic Party. Liberals will be setting the party agenda from now ...

🇺🇸🇰🇷 The USA loves Korea no matter who is in the White House. The US-Korea alliance was strong during Trump's first term, so I believe it will become even stronger during Trump's second term. It looks like Trump is putting together a team of China hawks, so they will likely be sharply focused on the Indo-Pacific region.

🇺🇦 I am nervous about Trump's foreign policy, but if he does anything horrible we will reverse it in 2028. Putin will pay for his war crimes. The worst possible thing that can happen during Trump 2.0 is that justice will be delayed for four years, but justice will be served. We guarantee it. Many states, including Republican states, are still showing their support for Ukraine. Ohio, the Republican state Vance is from, has recently strengthened its ties with Ukraine. So bipartisan support for Uk...

🇺🇸 It might be a wild four years, but it is only four years. That's the great thing about democracy. Anything done in that time that's not good for the USA or our allies will be undone in 2028. Liberals certainly do not agree with Trump on every issue, but we are looking forward to working on immigration and trade issues. There will be some positive results from the next administration. xo ...

🇺🇸 The Congressional Branch of the US government is supposed to be a check on the Executive Branch. I hope the US Senate will do it's job, and only confirm the cabinet nominees that are qualified for the jobs they have been nominated for. Thanks to the Obama Administration and the Democratic Party's short-sightedness under his leadership, cabinet nominees can now be confirmed with a simple majority, thus weakening our system of checks and balances. However, I believe the majority of the senat...

🇺🇸 Congratulations on your reelection. There are a few things I just don't understand. Why are you friends with Victor Orban? Why are you friends with a man who prefers Russian gas over American gas? Why are you friends with a man who loves Russia and China more than the USA? Orban is not a power player. Hungary is not a member of the G7. Orban's only relevance in geopolitics is Hungary's membership in the EU and NATO. Without those memberships, they are totally irrelevant. Why do you waste your...

🇺🇸 I blame Harris and the Obamas for stealing the presidential nomination from Biden. It’s time for new leadership in the Democratic Party, and Liberals are ready to lead. The American youth are not anymore Socialist than previous generations. That should be clear now to those still pushing the Socialist political agenda within the Democratic Party. Harris’ first mistake was impatience. She should have waited until after Biden’s second term was over to run for president. Her second mistake was...

🇺🇸 The only "war hawks" or "warmongers" are the Russians, who invaded Ukraine, started a war, and murdered hundreds of thousands of innocent people in order to steal Ukraine’s territory and gain control of almost all of the natural gas reserves on the European continent. President Trump’s friends like Victor Orban seem very fond of these Russian warmongers, which makes them pro-war, not pro-peace, as they claim. I find it disgusting. But I blame both political parties in the USA for the curren...

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Please help Ukraine. Please lift the restrictions on US weapons, so Ukraine can defend themselves from Russian and North Korean aggression. It is not fair for Ukraine to have to fight all alone against two terrorist nations with one hand tied behind their back.

🇺🇦 I'm extremely disappointed in the Biden Administration for refusing to extend the NATO invite to Ukraine. "The alliance has not, to date, reached the point where it is prepared to offer membership or an invitation to Ukraine," Julianne Smith, U.S. ambassador to NATO, said, adding that "our intent is to keep moving them closer to NATO." When will NATO be prepared then? After Ukraine is completely destroyed by Russia and there is nothing left of the country? We have shithole countries like Hu...

🇺🇸 Trump's bark is worse than his bite, unless of course your China, then his bite will be even worse than his bark. Most of his rhetoric is meant to rile his MAGA base. The majority of Americans do not want a trade war with Europe, and many of us love German cars. The only country that needs to be worried about trade wars is China, because Americans are not playing around with China. Closer cooperation with our allies on China is key. Most Americans do want a trade agreement with the EU, which...

🇺🇸 We propose new legislation that will require the US administration to do the following when world leaders issue nuclear threats. Any world leader that threatens to use nuclear weapons against the USA must be immediately added to the Disposition Matrix. The threat must be taken seriously. A nuclear attack is the worst possible kind of terrorist attack. Anyone that threatens to commit such an attack against the USA is clearly an enemy of the USA, and needs to be eliminated. If countries iss...

🇺🇸🇺🇦 The situation in Ukraine is critical. President Biden must respond to this crisis with more urgency, and more determination to help Ukraine defeat the Russian terrorists that have invaded their country. First of all, let there be no doubt in anyone's mind that Ukraine is joining NATO. Invite Ukraine to join NATO. Second, Ukraine has every right to use US weapons to strike Russian military targets inside Russia. Third, we want all Russian weapons that enter European airspace shot down, incl...

🇺🇸 That's the rally cry of Socialists, but it's not a viable solution. It's simply a policy proposal that appeals to the poor. Taxing the rich, both individuals and large corporations, is not a policy proposal that Liberals will ever support. Taxing the rich discourages investments and stifles economic growth. Ireland has extremely low corporate tax rates, the lowest in Europe, and they also have one of the best government budgets in all of Europe because of it. France, on the other hand, has ...

🇺🇸 Your stance on Russia makes absolutely no sense. First of all, Russia is not on the other side of the ocean. Russia has warships stationed in Cuba, right off of the coast of the USA and your home state of Florida. Russia is also a short distance from Alaska, known for its vast natural resources including most our oil reserves, something Russia would clearly like to get their hands on. There is no doubt that Russia regrets selling Alaska to the USA, and there is no doubt that a strong and conf...

🇺🇸🇮🇱 That Israel was created, because Europeans tried to exterminate the Jews. The United States created the United Nations, which was the vision of President Woodrow Wilson, first realized as the League of Nations, and then later as the United Nations, to ensure that a tragedy like the Holocaust would never happen again, but the organization is no longer being used for it's intended purpose. We see that clearly now. Americans demand answers. We want to know why the UNIFIL has failed to fulfil...

🇮🇱 I don't believe Israel would intentionally attack UN peacekeeping soldiers. I think it is time to end the UNIFIL mission in Lebanon. The UNIFIL is a peacekeeping mission, but they clearly did not accomplish their goal of keeping the peace between Israel and Lebanon. Despite over 10,000 peacekeeping soldiers being in the region for nearly 40 years, Hezbollah has continued to destabilize Lebanon, grow in strength, accumulate a huge arsenal of weapons, and infiltrate the Lebanese government. UNI...

🇺🇸 I intend to get more involved in US politics, rather than just write notes about politics. New York City is where we will be entering the political arena. Owning a farm is good politics, so you can connect with rural voters, but I intend to be in the heart of New York City to challenge the corrupt politicians we have there. Sadly, there are so many of them. xo ...

🇺🇸 I read both presidential candidates websites. Harris is still too socialist. She watered down some of her rhetoric, but all of her former economic policy proposals are still there. It's still the same socialist agenda. Harris also chose the most socialist governor in the entire USA to be her running mate. Harris is not a centrist. I'm not about it. I'm not enthused. Harris' start-up tax cuts for small businesses sound good on the surface, but the reality is that most small business do not ma...

🇺🇸 President Trump will do what the US Congress tells him to do, or he will be violating US law, and he will go to prison. The same goes for Kamala Harris if she becomes president. The US Congress is not going to allow Russia, specifically Putin, to win this war against Ukraine, especially after the USA has invested billions of dollars in Ukraine. Americans hate Putin, and we are going to make sure he loses, one way or another. We will have Congress force the State Department and US Treasury to ...

🇺🇸🇪🇺🏴 I find the relationship between the EU and Russia profoundly baffling. I just don't understand why European nations would allow Russia to steal one of the largest known natural gas reserves in Europe from Ukraine, simply so Russia can turn around and sell the gas back to Europe for trillions of dollars. It's the most corrupt and the most absurd energy strategy I have ever heard of. Corruption is the only reason any European leader would ever agree to such an energy strategy. It was the Ger...

🇺🇸 Fuck Trump's deal, and fuck Biden's deal too. Here's the real deal. Russia is going to get the fuck out of Ukraine, and Putin is going to be arrested for war crimes and spend the rest of his life in prison. Both the Ukrainians and the Russians will be liberated from the current Russian regime. Ukraine will have every inch of their territory returned to them, including all of their natural gas reserves. Ukraine will join NATO and the EU, and the EU will become energy independent, or at least...

🇪🇺 I don't agree with Thierry Breton's characterization of the President of the European Commission. Some people refer to von der Leyen as "empress" or "queen" in jest. We're just teasing. I don't believe she is a danger to the EU. She is focused on solving all of the challenges Europeans are facing right now, and she takes her job very seriously. I believe she has been very honest and transparent about her desire for gender balance in the European Commission. She is a very strong, and very inte...

We look forward to learning more about his ideas on the US-Japan alliance and our defense strategy. xo Response to: https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/20...

🇺🇸 Slavery never existed in California, so issuing an apology for slavery is a false sense of racial justice and it creates a false narrative of US history. That apology will be challenged in the Supreme Court. We do believe that Black Americans deserve an official apology for slavery, but only from the states where slavery actually existed. I believe President Abraham Lincoln already gave an official apology for slavery at the federal level when he declared civil war on those slave states, def...

🇺🇸🇬🇧 Many of these so-called environmental activists are nothing more than pranksters desperately seeking media attention. Throwing soup at a cultural artifact is not going to protect the environment, and they know it, but it will get them some media attention and publicity, which is what they really crave. Destroying a priceless cultural artifact and a significant piece of Western heritage should be punished harshly. There is no valid reason for committing such a crime or attempting to commit ...

🇺🇳 No nation deserves a role at the U.N. that will help it shape global rules unless their leader actually attends the U.N. general assembly and engages in a positive way with the other leaders of the world. I also believe it is time for a new Secretary General at the United Nations. I think Guterres is too biased on certain issues, and that is having a very negative effect on the U.N. I think the U.N. needs a new leader that can bring new energy to the organization and revive the organization...

🇺🇸🇩🇪🇺🇦 "The West should spend less time fretting about Russian President Vladimir Putin's red lines and set its own, says veteran German diplomat Wolfgang Ischinger." Exactly. I fear that the German SPD party leader and current German Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, does not really want Ukraine to win this war. Perhaps because his party colleague and former German Chancellor, Gerhard Schroder, was sitting on the board of directors at more than one Russian gas company and intends to do so again. If Uk...

🇲🇩 Russia must stop threatening Moldova, Georgia and other European nations that wish to join the EU and/or NATO. Russia does not have the right to tell these other countries what they can or can not do.

We want a new US administration that can put together an effective strategy to completely defeat ...

We must also be protect our interests and inves...

🇮🇱 I think the USA needs to have more faith in our ally Israel, and stop believing the lies that terrorists spread about them. I am extremely disappointed in the media for the continuous anti-Israel bias. That bias shapes public opinion, and it shaped mine for a very long time.

🇺🇦 President Zelenskyy made a wise decision to replace Kuleba. Kuleba would sometimes misspeak, and make statements that offended Ukraine's allies. Kuleba clearly offended President Biden's National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan with some of his statements on at least one occasion.

I doubt Kuleba ever meant to offend any of Ukraine's allies, but these mistakes, intentional or not, are bad diplomacy...

At least since the '70s, we have understood the correlation between energy prices, the economy, and inflation. Keeping energy prices low is essential for a healthy economy. We have repeatedly stressed the importance of a smooth transition to clean energy, which means that we must keep energy prices low during the transition, which Europe has not done, unfortunately.

We wish for Saudi Arabia to accept all of the Muslim migrants and refugees that are seeking asylum in the USA and EU, especially the ones that are guilty of violating our laws, because these migrants are clearly not integrating well into our societies. We would like Saudi Arabia to create rehabilitatio...

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Most people with a heart are concerned about the Palestinian people. Good-natured people wish for everyone in the world to have peace and happiness. The problem is that terrorists are not good-natured people and they rely on our empathy for the Palestinians to push their political agenda by pressuring Israel into a bad cease-fire deal. They will continue to use innocent Palestinians as human shields to manipulate public opinion and convince the public to plead with Israel to agree to a ceas...

🇺🇸 It's too bad Democrats aren't. What is the one thing all of these corrupt politicians have in common? They are all Democrats! They are also all POC: Chinese-American, African-American, Cuban-American and Mexican-American. They were also all working for China and Muslim countries pushing Chinese and Muslim political agendas. Everyone keeps claiming that Trump is a threat to our democracy, but these four politicians are clearly a much bigger threat to our democracy than Trump ever was, and ther...

🇫🇷 We loved Gabriel Attal, the Prime Minister of France. We're sorry that he has to resign. I think as long as Melenchon does not replace Attal, France will do well.

🇪🇺🇭🇺 Hungary is clearly pushing Russian and Chinese interests. Hungary is undermining the security of both the EU and NATO, and therefore they need to be kicked out of both organizations. The best way to prevent EU and NATO members from undermining our organizations and jeopardizing our interests is to make it clear to them that they can and will lose their membership in these organizations if they are not clearly on our team. I think we should set an example with Hungary. Hungary is nothing bu...

🇺🇸 “I know the importance of safety and security, especially at our border. Last year, Joe and I brought together Democrats and conservative Republicans to write the strongest border bill in decades. The Border Patrol endorsed it. But Donald Trump believes a border deal would hurt his campaign.” — Vice President Kamala Harris That was a misrepresentation of reality. Senator Kyrsten Sinema brought together Republicans and Democrats to write the strongest border bill in decades. It was Kyrsten S...

🇺🇸 My latest project is The Country Estate. Our country estate has over 100 acres of woodland also known as a forest, and over 100 acres of pasture also known as farmland with a private lake too. The estate property is adjacent to over two thousand acres of a state forest preserve, and four thousand acres of a prairie grassland preserve with wild bison also known as buffalo. It's truly amazing. It's an elevated rural escape for Chicagoans, something they have desired for a very long time - a fun...

🇺🇸 My new art exhibition, Social Justice, will be on view in New York City from September 1 to January 30, 2025 at our pop-up gallery, Pate Projects. I had my lovely assistant in New York carry a body cam with her over the past four years. She recorded every single thing that happened to her during that time period, including lots of people behaving very badly. She recorded numerous instances of people doing creepy things to an innocent female for no valid reason, totally unprovoked. Every vid...

🇺🇸 Elon Musk does not care about free speech. Twitter, under Elon Musk's leadership, continues to censor Americans. My Twitter account was suspended the day after Musk bought the platform. I did not violate any rules or regulations. There was no valid reason to suspend the account. The account was suspended simply because I was becoming popular and influential, and someone did not like my politics. Besides that one of Musk's business partners is MBS - the man who literally murders people that cr...

🇺🇸 Liberals support liberal economic policies, not socialist economic policies. Liberals are also the biggest defenders of human rights and an individual's liberty. Liberals will never support policies that infringe on Americans' human rights or civil liberties, and we will never support foreign policies that are friendly to authoritarian regimes or human rights violators. That is how American Liberals define progressive. xo ...

🇺🇸🇨🇳 One of the biggest issues for many Americans in the election will be US-China relations. Until China's behavior starts to change, which has not yet happened, we expect the US administration to be firm, not friendly, with China. We will file a class-action lawsuit, on behalf of the American people, on national security grounds, against any US administration or US agency that jeopardizes US interests in any way by being too accommodating to China. We will also pursue corruption charges agains...

🇺🇸🇺🇦 A big issue in the US election is Ukraine and their future. Over two-thirds of Americans support the USA's military aid to Ukraine - only a fool would oppose it. Americans will be voting for the presidential candidate that promises to lift all restrictions on Ukraine's use of US weapons so that they can finally defeat Russia and reach a just peace. xo ...

🇺🇸 "It doesn't take a super smart economist to understand that so-called 'greedflation' or the 'corporate price gouging' that Kamala Harris keeps talking about is basically non-existent - all the knowledge one needs to comprehend this is taught in Econ 101." Corporate price gouging is a made up issue. It's a Socialist strategy to start price-fixing. Our economy is a capitalist economy based on the market laws of supply and demand. Price-fixing is an anti-capitalist policy that ignores the laws...

🇺🇸 Democrats claim they want to lower costs for Americans, yet they are always inventing new ways to tax them. Why are they so obsessed with taxing Americans, and squeezing every dime they can out of them? Liberals will continue to oppose all new tax burdens levied on Americans.

🇺🇸🇬🇧 The Starmer and Blair crowd opposes British aristocracy and constantly attacks British billionaires or any other wealthy British people, despite the fact that they earned their wealth legally and legitimately and keep Britons employed, yet they literally come to the defense of wealthy Russian mafia scum who stole all of their wealth and are an enemy of the United Kingdom. These people are clearly corrupt. We are disappointed. xo Response to: https://www.politico.eu/article/the-last-of-t...

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷 Iran will not be allowed to threaten Israel into a bad ceasefire deal. The USA will go to war with Iran if they attack Israel. We expect the US administration to make this very clear to Iran so they know better. The ceasefire will happen when Hamas surrenders or agrees to Israel's terms, nothing Iran says or does is going to change that. Sinwar is a dead man walking - deal or no deal. He's not going to get away with his crimes. Perhaps Israel should just do what China does to the Uyghu...

🇨🇿 I agree with Czech President Petr Pavel that Ukraine could join NATO even if Ukraine is unable to take back all of their Russian-occupied territory just like Germany did. But Germany was no longer at war with Russia when they joined NATO, and I believe that is the real issue. I don't believe that Ukraine sabotaged the Nord Stream pipeline. Ukrainians acting independently from the government might have foolishly done it, and I forgive them for it if they did. I will forgive the Ukrainian gov...

🇺🇸 I keep reading about all of the enthusiasm for Kamala Harris in the media, but I don't actually know of a single person that is enthusiastic about her nomination as the Democratic Party's presidential candidate. I am friends with a lot of artists and musicians, the most liberal group of people in the USA, but no one I know is excited about this. No one actually knows what Kamala Harris stands for. No one knows what her agenda is, because she didn't tell us via the normal format - a primary el...

🇺🇸 I proudly own a little flock of sheep. My family farm is becoming a real farm rather than just a dream.

It's also a home for an old old friend of mine. xo ...

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇸🇦 There is one thing our three countries have in common. We all have an adversarial relationship with Iran. So it is not in any of our interests to create a new terrorist state in the Middle East that is aligned with Iran and Iran's other proxies like the Houthis in Yemen, which Saudi Arabia was at war with not so long ago. Therefore, I think MBS is a fool for insisting on a path to statehood for Palestine. I think the Palestinians will be much better off if they settle in a new territory. ...

🇺🇦 We pray for the Ukrainians' success in defending their homeland and securing their freedom from Russia. It is extremely important that Russia suffers a humiliating defeat by Ukraine. We do not believe there will be any peace in Europe until that happens, because Russia will consider any thing else a win, and that will encourage them to continue their expansionist activities. Unfortunately the Biden Administration, despite everything they have done for Ukraine, and we do appreciate everything ...

🇺🇸 Senator Bernie Sanders is still mad that he lost the primary election to Hillary Clinton and then to Joe Biden. He's still mad because he will never have the opportunity to become the President of the Unites States of America.

🇺🇸 Fuck the Octogenarians Act aka No Old Fogies in Congress Act is new legislation we are proposing that will create an age limit on all candidates for Congress and the White House. No one over the age of 82 years old can run for office. Anyone currently in Congress that is already over that age limit, will be required to resign immediately, even the ones who win in the 2024 election, and their states will be required to hold another special election to refill those seat in 2025. The over 80 c...

🇺🇸 The primary election in Michigan State tells you every thing you need to know about the Democratic Party voter base. An extremely conservative Jewish Democrat, Elissa Slotkin, who is fiercely pro-Israel, won by a landslide with 80% of the vote in a state that has the largest Arab-American population in the USA. Remember these are the votes of registered Democrats only, the primary election doesn't even include Independents or Republicans. If you actually believe Kamala Harris is going to turn...

🇮🇱🇵🇸 The only state, if you can even call it a state, that is guilty of genocidal acts is Palestine for the heinous war crimes they committed on October 7, and continue to commit against the Israeli people. I think the last thing the Middle East needs right now is another terrorist state run by terrorist organizations aligned with Iran that are intent on destroying Israel. Therefore, I withdraw my support for the two-state solution, and I regret that I ever supported it. I never will again. xo ...

There's more than one way to eliminate an opponent. It doesn't have to be during a primary election or a general election. Sometimes all you need is a little piece of legislation. That was for Kyrsten Sinema. As they say, what goes around comes around, and we did it without spending a single dime of our own ...

🇺🇸🇨🇳 I'm happy to know that the Justice Department understands that TikTok is a serious threat. The US constitution is a shield for US citizens and US entities, not foreign citizens or foreign entities, especially not entities of regimes that are anti-American and have malicious intentions.

🇬🇷 We are on holiday in the Greek Islands. I love Greece. Unlike the Turks, the Greeks are great people with a long history of rainbow love. Sappho's poems are proof that rainbow love has been a part of Western culture from the very beginning of our civilization, which started in Greece. During one of my many Art Basel adventures in Miami Beach, I met an amazing Greek girl from Corfu. She's a Greek goddess. I saw her kissing a Russian girl, but that only made me more determined to meet her. Befo...

🇺🇸🇫🇷 Paris has always been the place for pushing creative boundaries. The Rite of Spring, a classic of Western culture now, caused a riot in Paris the first time it was performed over 100 years ago. I thought Thomas Jolly, the Paris Olympics ceremony’s artistic director, created a brilliant ceremony. I was expecting something that might cause a riot. I loved Lady Gaga's performance, and I loved the heavy metal opera about the French revolution. I also cried when Juliett sang Imagine. I was think...

🇺🇸🇬🇧 We love the UK. We love the British people. That is why we are disappointed to learn that PM Stramer is repealing a law that protects freedom of speech in the UK. We know that communists love to violate this fundamental human right and censor people. This is not progressive. It is regressive. This is just one example of how the so-called Progressives create paths for communists to accomplish their goals - the goal of this particular path would be to silence dissent and to silence the opposi...

🇺🇸🇻🇪 Clearly the Maduro regime has no intentions of respecting the election results. Any intelligent individual knows that a regime that is aligned with Russia and China is never going to respect election results. These countries do not care about elections. They do not care about democracy. They are Socialist thugs. We do not approve of the easing of sanctions on Venezuela, and we want them reapplied. xo Response to: https://www.politico.com/news/2024/07/29/maduro-declared-winner-venezuela-dis...

🇺🇸🇺🇦 The USA loves Ukraine. We are happy to learn of all of Ukraine's successes. One thing we recommend is attacking Russian warships in the Caribbean, like the ones stationed in Cuba. This is one way to demonstrate to skeptical Americans that Ukraine is defending them, that Ukrainian interests and American interests are aligned, and that Ukraine is an ally worth supporting long-term. xo Response to: https://www.politico.eu/article/ukraine-drone-hits-russian-airfield-in-arctic-report/ ...

🇺🇸🇯🇵 The USA loves Japan. We will always defend Japan - one of our strongest allies in the world. Japan should not fear a second Trump presidency. It was the first Trump Administration that restarted the QUAD exercises. I have no doubt that the second Trump Administration will be more attentive to the threats in the Indo-Pacific - an issue the Biden Administration has not really tackled satisfactorily - since those threats have continued to grow under Biden's leadership. US Liberals will continu...

🇺🇸🇮🇹 It appears that Italy is choosing to align with malicious regimes rather than their NATO allies. China recently committed multiple cyberattacks against the Italian government and Italian businesses. Instead of punishing China for their malicious behavior, the Italian government decides to reward China for it. It's absurd. The USA loves Italy. The US Ambassador to Italy should be cultivating a closer relationship between the USA and Italy, not allowing China to drive a wedge between us. His...

🇺🇸 President Biden’s vow to “pass the torch” is anti-democratic. The president does not have the right to pass the torch to whomever he wants or choose the next presidential nominee for the Democratic Party. Only voters have the right to make that choice. If Biden wanted to pass the torch to a new generation, he should have made the decision before the primary election. The Democratic Party decided to wait until after the primary election, because they know that Kamala Harris can not win a prima...

🇺🇸 It doesn't look good for the Democrats. Members of the far-left wing of the Democratic Party, the so-called Progressives, tried to pass legislation that would eliminate Trump's protection by the Secret Service. The legislation did not name Trump specifically, but it stated that anyone that was a convicted felon could no longer have Secret Service protection, including former presidents. And these legislators knew very well that Trump had become a convicted felon over a case that everyone beli...

🇫🇷 The Liberal Centrists are once again the most popular political party in France based on the second round results, and it only took one week to turn voters around - that's amazing.

However, the National Rally has gained 50 seats in the Parliament. I would figure out why those voters ...

🇬🇧 I'm very disappointed to hear Keir Stramer claim that "Progressives are the only ones with answers." It says a lot about him. He certainly did not provide any answers during the UK debate, so I beg to differ. Liberal Centrists are providing real solutions and real visions for the future. Stramer has spent most of his campaign pretending to be a Liberal Centrist, but this one statement makes it very clear that he is not. This statement also makes clear that he is not open to any new ideas, or ...

🇫🇷 President Macron is far from over. I really don't get why so many people are in glee at the prospects of such a scenario. He has done great things for France. He has kick-started France's AI industry. He is turning Paris into the international finance capital of the EU. He has initiated many efforts to modernize France's economy. He has stood by Ukraine and pushed to modernize the European defense industry to protect all of Europe. He has Paris hosting the Olympics. He's done a lot of great t...

So no one in the USA is going to be disappointed if she gets a top job, some of us were rooting for her to run NATO. Antonio Costa proved to be extremely wise in his proposal for the EU's energy security strategy - he's very pragmatic for a Socialist with excellent ideas. I think the EU has a lot of great leaders to choose from and that's a ...

🇺🇸 We were the climate kids long before Greta Thunberg. When we were freshmen in college, we were protesting for climate action in our cute little green tutus because we thought it was cool. Now we are the climate adults with college degrees from Ivy League schools. Now we own our own businesses - sustainable ones of course. We got rich off of our Tesla and Apple stocks, and we have numerous other investments in innovative American and European companies that are creating real solutions for cli...

🇪🇺🇨🇳 "BYD is welcome in France and China's automotive industry is welcome in France," Economy Minister Bruno Le Maire said last month. I highly doubt that French people want to work in Chinese factories, making cheap Chinese cars for Chinese overlords. The French love being French, and they love producing French things. I know Americans aren't interested in working in Chinese factories. They recalled a local election and kicked the politicians out of office over the proposal of a Chinese factory...

🇺🇸🇨🇾 Well, I agree with this article. Cyprus is definitely a good solution for the USA, and we are happy that both the former and the current US administrations recognize this. No matter who wins the US election, the US relationship with Cyprus will grow and prosper, and we will continue to push for the reunification of Cyprus and the end to Turkey's illegal military occupation of the island. I also highly recommend Hezbollah stops threatening Cyprus before the USA decides to eliminate every sin...

We are especially grateful to the African, South American and Asian countries that chose to support Ukraine despite not being protected by the USA. It took tremendous courage to do the right thing and stand with Ukraine against a nuclear power like Russia who is allied with China. Americans are taking n...

🇩🇰 The Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen is one of my favorite politicians, a role-model really. I'm really sad to learn that someone has attacked her, but I am happy to know that she has not been injured. She's probably the least corrupt leader in the entire world. I can't imagine why anyone would do such a thing. We renew our request for the President of the USA to host a state dinner in her honor. xo ...

🇨🇳 For my latest artwork, LOL China, I created a giant panda bear stuffed animal named China. It's cheap, like everything made in China, but cute. When you touch the panda's tummy, China says "you will be nailed to the pillar of shame," a threat that the Chinese Defense Minister recently made to attendees at the security conference in Singapore. China says other shocking things you would never expect from a cute panda bear, all recordings of Chinese officials. If you wave a Taiwanese flag, China...

🇺🇸 The Far-Right claims to be anti-Muslim, but yet they continue to show their support for Muslim terrorist allies like Russia. Russia is aligned with Iran, and Iran is funding all of the terrorist groups in the Middle East: Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthi rebels, etc. And these groups with funding from both Russia and Iran are causing all of the chaos in the Middle East and Africa that leads to mass migration to Europe and the USA. You can not be both pro-Russian and anti-immigration or pro-Russia...

🇺🇸🇫🇷 Thank you to France for sending French soldiers to Ukraine to train the Ukrainians. Thank you for inviting both President Biden and President Zelenskyy to France. It's comforting to know that France and the USA are working together to strengthen the alliance and that both countries are supporting Ukraine. Vive la France! xo ...

🇮🇱 The reasoning in this article is severely flawed. The majority of Americans support Israel, and the majority of Americans want Hamas defeated. If President Biden were to significantly change his Israel policy, many Centrists and Independents in the USA would start looking at Trump as a serious contender for reelection, and start entertaining the idea of a second Trump presidency. Even Europeans are not as pro-Palestine and anti-Israel as the Socialists would like the world to believe. The tw...

🇺🇸 We would like to propose new legislation that would require any naturalized citizen of the USA that has engaged in an attempted military coup on the African continent, or elsewhere for that matter, to be stripped of their US citizenship. It is extremely damaging to the USA's reputation to have such people engaging in these kinds of anti-democratic activities. Most of these criminals are not born in the USA. They are African nationals that have acquired a US citizenship through an investment o...

If you commit a terrorist attack against Americans, you are an enemy of the United States. Under no circumstances will a terrorist be allowed to go free ...

🇮🇱🇵🇸 We do not support any proposal that would allow Hamas to remain in control of the Gaza Strip. We wish for Hamas, especially the leaders of Hamas, to be defeated. We expect these disgusting, scumbag terrorists to be hunted down and put to death for the heinous crimes that they have committed against Israelis and Americans. If Biden does not accomplish that objective, then millions of Americans will not be voting for him. It's as simple as that. We don't approve of the way Netanyahu has han...

🇺🇸 Americans hate taxes. That's the reason we revolted against the British monarch, and declared our independence. The Taxes Are Too Damn High Party aka the Liberal Party would like to propose a cap on the amount of tax state and local governments can tax their residents. This will reduce the SALT burden on Americans living in excessively high tax regions, many of whom are pleading for tax relief. These Americans must understand that the tax relief they need must come at the state and local le...

Allowing these platforms to spread foreign propaganda is disast...

We see military coups, civil wars, terrorism, famine and severe poverty plaguing many African countries, much of it fueled by Russia. We wish to help Africa solve these problems, but we do not have any reliable partners on the continent at the moment. We wish to establish a special relationship with Kenya, so that ...

🇮🇱 I'm disappointed in the International Criminal Court (ICC). The ICC's decision to equate Netanyahu with Sinwar will only delegitimize their standing in the world. Sinwar is the leader of a terrorist organization, while Netanyahu is the leader of a liberal democracy. Hamas committed a heinous, unprovoked attack on innocent people on Israeli territory. They decapitated, raped, beat, tortured, and slaughtered innocent people for no valid reason. In response, Israel declared war on the terrorist ...

🇸🇰 We are sorry to learn of the attempted assassination of the Prime Minister of Slovakia. We understand that the Prime Minister was a friend of Putin's, and often used pro-Russian rhetoric. I think some Slovakians may have felt betrayed by this rhetoric, and they may have feared Russia had corrupted their democracy. Resorting to violence and extremism is what Russian terrorists do - it's not the solution. We wish to help Slovakia in any way we can through this political turmoil, and help them r...

I am also alarmed to learn of the new buildup of troops along the Russian border and the attacks on Kharkiv.

Our only request for Ukraine is that they abide by international law, and to not stoop to Russia's level by committing wa...

We want all weapons sales and transfers to Tukey paused until the report is complete. The president can call Netanyahu a bad man - we agree with him. But the president is not going to be allowed to ignore Aliyev, Erdogan, Xi Jinping, and Putin or any of the other bad men in the world, many of whom are much worse than Netanya...

🇮🇱🇵🇸 A cease-fire will not protect innocent civilians. It would allow the Hamas terrorists to go free and jeopardize the lives of innocent people in Palestine, Israel and the rest of the world. That is not a viable solution. We do know that Americans are being held hostage by Hamas. Sadly, we can't guarantee the lives of those hostages, but we can guarantee that Hamas never gets their hands on any other Americans ever again. We want to make sure Hamas is not capable of committing these heinous...

🇺🇸 We believe that the UK and France shall determine for themselves whether they want to use their nuclear weapons to create a nuclear umbrella for the entire NATO alliance. We are not opposed to the idea of all nuclear powers within the alliance vowing to defend all NATO allies with their nuclear weapons. However, any fear that the US nuclear umbrella would no longer include NATO allies in the future is misplaced. Our nuclear policy to defend all NATO allies will not change no matter who wins t...

🇨🇳 If the US Supreme Court agrees with TikTok in this case, which I highly doubt they will, then we will amend the US Constitution to ensure that the forced sale of any company that poses a national security threat to the USA is constitutional.

Why is that these far-left activists have not called for the ban of weapons sales to Turkey after humanitarian aid to Armenia was blocked by both Turkey and Azerbeijan, and many Armenians starved to death? Why is it that these far-left activists only march for Palestinians but not Armenians or...

🇩🇰 I think Denmark's immigration policies are the only reason the Social Democrats are still in control of Denmark. The socialists have lost control of every other country in Europe, except Spain and Germany, and they are barely hanging on in both of those countries.

🇨🇳 Europe has no reason to ban TikTok, because after TikTok has new owners due to the forced sale imposed by the USA, there is no more reason for security concerns. The USA is taking care of that business for everyone. Apparently the authors of this article don't even comprehend what the national security issues around TikTok are. Spending too much time on the app is unproductive and bad for kids, but that is not why TikTok is being forced to sell their app. The biggest issue is the fact that ...

My only explanation for this is that they must not want Donald Trump to win the general election, and they really want to drive it home to US voters that Trump is a serious threat to US national security as Bolton, Trump's former national security advisor, has declared. In that case, we get the message loud and clear, and we w...

🏴 Yes, I agree with Senator Lindsey Graham on this issue. xo Russia has always been a problem. They never stopped being a problem. We simply were delusional for a few years, or decades, and pretended like the problem was solved. Russia's invasion of Ukraine has finally forced us to face reality.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 US support for Israel is unwavering. However, the Israeli Prime Minister must cooperate with the Biden Administration. If PM Netanyahu is not cooperating with President Biden, Biden will need to force Netanyahu's hand and be more assertive. It's in the USA's and Israel's best interest to do so if necessary. Israel will never strike a territory where US troops are stationed. The right-wing Israeli government would never make such a foolhardy move. So one way to ensure that Israel does not s...

🇺🇸🇨🇳 Globalization can be reversed. We can cut out anyone that refuses to play by the rules. And that's exactly what we will do if China continues to be aggressive. Essentially, we will do whatever China indicates they would like us to do. But we are not taking our cues from their rhetoric, we are taking our cues from their behavior. All of China's behavior indicates that they would like us to de-risk and decouple. Unfortunately, we have not seen any change in China's behavior thus far, so our...

🇺🇸 "The White House is hoping to demonstrate that it is business as usual at DHS, eager to show that the president’s team is unfazed by the impeachment and to portray Republicans as consumed by partisan vendettas at the cost of tending to the crisis at the southern border."

🇺🇸 The two issues of foreign aid for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan and border security policies can not be tied together any longer. We don't have time for anymore negotiations over the border policies before passing the national security supplement. We need the supplement passed in the House immediately as is.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Hamas slaughtered over 1,200 innocent people. I am getting tired of the international community making excuses for their actions when there are no excuses for terrorism. Based on their actions, I would not be surprised if Hamas is also murdering innocent Palestinians in Gaza simply to blame Israel for their deaths in a desperate attempt to gain support from the international community or the Arab world. The situation in Gaza will never improve while Hamas is in power. They must be defeated....

He's ignoring the advice of the CIA Director, he's jeopardizing the national security of the USA and our allies, and he is allowing a former president and possible Russian foreign agent to call the shots.

The idea that a state where slavery never existed would pay reparations for slavery is absu...

🇺🇸🇺🇦 I have no clue what the Republicans are doing right now. Why are they blocking Ukraine aid? They said they wanted to include border policies in the national security supplement, so we agreed to do that. Now they are backing out of the deal after months of negotiations.

There was strong bipartisan support for Ukraine, but now they appear to be intentionally sabotaging Ukraine's ability to win the war,...

🇺🇸🇪🇺 I think the best response to gray-zone aggressions by Russia and its friends is to charge them fees and fines for each aggression. Certainly these fines should cover the cost of damage to pipelines and cables or loss of services, but should also include the costs to investigate, as well as the cost to protect ourselves from future damage and aggression. Russia and its friends should be invoiced for the fees and fines once it is proven that they are the aggressor. If they don't pay up there ...

🇺🇸 She could run as an Independent. It's starting to sound like a great solution to many of us.

However, the center-left can easily surpass both the far-left and moderate Republicans in blue states. The center-left will have a more chal...

I am still worried about the lower chamber. The Speaker of the House has not given any signal that he intends to cooperate and pass the national security supplement. His only statement has been that Ukraine has enough funding to last until February, but that statement contradicts what experts are stating. Ukraine has already had to sca...

🇺🇸🇪🇺 Elon Musk wants to control the conversation and shape public opinion. That's the reason he bought Twitter. His platform is being used to distribute Russian propaganda and disinformation in order to shape public opinion on everything from the US elections to the war in Ukraine. He spreads Russian disinformation himself on his own feed, and he even admitted to calling the Russian embassy in the USA and informing them of Ukraine's war plans in the Crimea, which he learned of via Starlink.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Please do not abandon Ukraine. I can't believe that the USA would abandon a country that is fighting so hard for the freedom that Americans hold so dear. I can't believe the USA would refuse to help a country that so desperately wants to be aligned with us and wants to become a US ally. I find the recent rhetoric from some members of the US Congress to be extremely confusing and alien to everything I believe in and to what I have always believed to be American values. I trust Senator Sine...

🇺🇸🏴 Russia is an enemy of the USA. Russia is engaged in open hostilities with the USA and our allies. So any politician touting pro-Russian propaganda should be charged for being a Russian foreign agent. And any politician adhering to the enemy should be charged with treason, and lose their right to ever hold a public office again. These are US laws on the books since the World War II era, and we expect all politicians to abide by these laws or they will go to prison like any other criminal. xo ...

🇺🇸 Political groups need to stop attacking Senator Sinema, the most ethical and brilliant person in the US Senate, and very likely a future president of the USA. You're not damaging her credibility, you're only damaging your own. I think it's cute that Senator Sinema lives with another woman. They don't have to be married, if they don't want to be. Until they make the decision to get married, she is not required to treat the woman as a spouse. She may have been thinking of marrying the woman at ...

🇺🇸 I keep reading about the USA's "wobbling" support for Ukraine, and that Europe needs to be more self confident and prepared to defend itself in the wake of US isolationism. Although I believe Europe should not be over dependent on the USA, I also am alarmed that Europe is questioning our reliability as a security partner right now. Some Europeans believe Europe should be more autonomous, and I understand why they feel that way. I believe that the USA needs to stop being so isolationist or st...

🇺🇸 US lawmakers have been talking about including border security policies in the national security supplement for months now. The US Congress has had months to negotiate border security policies. Americans do not understand why the US Congress has not reached a deal yet on the border security issues.

It's time to make it clear to terrorist groups that they will be severely punished. These terrorist attacks are not going to produce the results they want. We are not going to be kind to terrorists. We are not going to allow them to stay in power. They will lose all of the power they had. They will lose everything they had, because of th...

🇵🇱🇱🇹 This territory is strategically important to NATO. Taking possession of it will significantly improve the security of the Baltic and the Scandinavian states. I'm not sure how Russia managed to hold onto it for so long. It's certainly not in NATO's interest for Russia to keep possession of this territory, and I do not understand why we allowed them to do so. The indigenous people of this territory are not Russian, they are Polish and Lithuanian. I'm in favor of taking control of the territor...

Vietnam was not interested in becoming a liberal democracy, and South Vietnam did not have great leadership like Ukraine currently has.

Ukraine will be free from the Russian sphere of influence, and so will every other country in Europe, including Moldova, Serbia, Georgia and Armenia. Russia's ...

🇺🇦 I agree that Kyiv should target the Kerch Bridge. It should be a top priority. But I don't agree that Ukraine needs the latest and greatest missiles to do it. There are better ways to do it. They can do it with dynamite. If there is a will, there is a way. Ukraine will have to use some gorilla warfare tactics to accomplish some of their goals. It's the only way a small nation with limited means can defeat a larger power. As the author notes, "the most reliable way to completely destroy the ...

🇮🇱🇵🇸 We are happy to know that the US administration is working on a strategy and solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Americans know it is not an easy task. We realize this conflict may never be solved. It will be a huge accomplishment for the administration to create a new solution, especially a two-state solution. It's important to ensure that any party that breaks the peace, once established, can be held accountable by the international community for their actions and prevent their...

John Kerry is literally defending a man who has invited Vladimir Putin to visit his country. It's weird. I trust American oil magnates more than Middle Eastern ones. American oil magnates have to abide by American laws, so we have more control over them. We can prevent them from conspiring with Russian mafia scum or anyone else to raise gas and oil prices and creat...

🇺🇸 After the terrorist attacks in Israel and the war in Ukraine, I support the GOP's border security requests. I believe that the US-Mexico border should be more secure, and that we must stop illegal migration. We have no idea who is crossing our southern border. Islamic extremists or Russian mafia scum could be crossing our border illegally to commit terrorist acts or engage in transnational repression. This does not mean that we oppose migration, but migration must be conducted in an orderly...

🇫🇷 It's not Jewish people that are beheading school teachers and stabbing babies in public parks, so I do not understand the outrage at the Jewish community. France has experienced the savagery of Islamic extremists repeatedly, and yet their political leaders continue to defend them, while lashing out at the Jewish people. It's bizarre. It has to be corruption. There is no other explanation for it. xo Response to: https://www.politico.eu/article/france-ruth-elkrief-israel-hamas-jewish-journalis...

The USA can easily defeat Russia and end this conflict quickly. Americans are not afraid of going to war with Russia. Many Americans have already volunteered. We can liberate Ukraine, liberate Russia, create a more secure Europe, and create a world devoid of warmongering regimes and terrorist groups. It is our duty to ...

🇺🇸 There is huge question in some people's mind about fairness in US foreign policy. A Congolese government spokesman said: “When it comes to Ukraine, the United States is doing its best. When it comes to Rwanda, which is acting the way sometimes Vladimir Putin is acting, we are not receiving the same answer or the same reaction from the United States,” he said. “It’s a bit unfair for Congolese people...” It is true that we are more committed to Ukraine, but that is because Ukraine is deeply ...

🇺🇸🇪🇺🇬🇧 I am happy that Russia has a high tolerance for losses. I hope they can tolerate losing their territory, specifically Kaliningrad, which we will take from them to secure NATO's Baltic and Scandinavian members. If Russia's tolerance for losses is really high, perhaps we will take other territories like Murmansk Oblast, which will significantly decrease the land border between Finland and Russia, making our newest collective security member more secure. Or perhaps we will also take the whol...

🇺🇸🇪🇺🇬🇧 Honestly, I think we should take Kaliningrad from Russia. It will significantly improve our security in the Baltic Sea and the Baltic and Scandinavian nations. Now is the opportune time to do so. I think Russia should not only be forced to leave Ukraine, but also be forced to forfeit part of their own territory, specifically Kaliningrad, as punishment for their aggressive behavior and for starting a war in Europe. xo Response to: https://www.voanews.com/a/russia-moves-its-air-defense-sys...

🇺🇦 Is there a way for Ukraine to communicate with the Russians on the frontline? If Ukraine created a radio broadcast to communicate with them would the Russians be likely to find it and hear it? Is it possible for Ukraine to drop leaflets along the frontlines to communicate with Russians like Israel does in Gaza? Can we convince the Russian soldiers on the frontline to surrender? Can we offer them a better life? What if we offer them a winter in the Caribbean if they surrender to the Ukrainian...

🇺🇸 I stated before that there is no better foreign policy than one that turns your enemies into your allies. This is true. But we have to follow the example President Truman set for us. He understood that you can not turn an enemy into an ally until you have completely defeated them first. You must demonstrate your strength, otherwise your kindness is interpreted as a weakness. Your enemy will assume you are naive, use your kindness to take advantage of you, and try to gain an advantage over you...

🇺🇸 You will not be reelected. Neither will Trump. We will elect a woman to be President of the USA. The leak of Ukraine's military plans to Russia, the slow delivery of weapons to Ukraine... all of this benefited Russia, and hurt Ukraine. Now you are trying to freeze the conflict and force Ukraine to negotiate by stalling funding and blaming it all on the GOP. It was the Democratic Party along with a handful of pro-Russian GOP members that voted to expel Speaker McCarthy, and they decided to do...

China is learning that they have no choice but to be cordial - without the West their economy will fall apart. However, China is not a friend. China is an enemy. China is still engaged in hostile activities such as aggressive military behavior in the Indo-Pacific. They continue to conduct military exercises with Russia. They are still engaging in economic warfare, cyber warfare, psychological warfare, transnational repression and other hostile activities while maintaining close alliances with Ru...

🇺🇦 Perhaps we can boost the size of Ukraine's army by hiring mercenaries as they did in the old world in Europe. Most soldiers were mercenaries, mostly foreigners, that would work for whoever paid them the most money. Let's offer Russians a salary, a much higher salary than they are paid in Russia, to fight for Ukraine against Russia. Even if the Russian recruits are not fighting against Russia, pulling them out of Russia's war is a benefit to Ukraine. Morale is extremely low in the Russian mil...

🇺🇸🇪🇺🇬🇧 I think Kaja Kallas and Mark Rutte are both strong candidates to be the next leader of NATO. Maybe we can have two chiefs. Two brilliant leaders are better than one, especially at a critical time for the alliance. I think all members of NATO understand the importance of burden sharing now. I don't think burden sharing is the most critical qualifying factor. Having the right leadership traits is much more important. Maintaining unity in the alliance is going to be one of the most challe...

🇳🇱 I'm sorry to hear that the far-right has won the election in the Netherlands, but I am not surprised. If the left continues to ignore the immigration problems, the voter's will elect the party that promises to solve it. The far-left rejected Mark Rutte's sensible migration policy, and the government fell apart because of it. Clearly it would have been best to implement Rutte's centrist migration policy. Now the Netherlands will likely have an even harsher migration policy implemented by the n...

The Arabs rejected the proposal, started the Arab-Israeli War over it, and attacked the Jewish people. The Arabs lost that war. The Jews won. And the Jews created the State of Israel, despite all of the Arabs' efforts to prevent it. Although Arabs had the opportunity to do so, they did not create the State of Palestine. The area kno...

Russia is pursuing an imperialist foreign policy. They have a very long history of doing that. Regardless of who is in charge in Russia - a Russian czar, a Russian communist, or the current Russian mafia scum - they have always pursued an expansionist policy.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 The most horrifying part of this terrorist attack against Israel was the reaction to it. I saw videos circulating in the media. I saw Hamas parading dead bodies in the streets of Gaza. And the most horrifying part of it was that the streets of Gaza were filled with Palestinian civilians cheering it on. Men, women, and children were in the streets celebrating this horrifying act. They were elated by the sight of dead bodies and severed heads that I found so repulsive. That's what I find to b...

The territory is called Nagorno-Karabakh. xo "Over several months, Azerbaijan’s blockade of the region deprived the residents of food, water, fuel and other essential supplies.

🌍 It's strange how the world has watched extremely destructive attacks happening to Ukraine for nearly two years now, and yet many of the countries in the world did not care at all. Russian tanks rolling into Ukraine did not phase them. The only thing they cared about is how Russia's war was going to affect them - their food prices and gas prices. Many of these countries used Russia's war as an opportunity to make money. They did not care at all about the thousands of Ukrainians that were dying,...

🇮🇱🇵🇸 I think the best thing to do is to ensure the hostages are released, root out Hamas, allow the official Palestinian Authority to govern Gaza and the West Bank, work on a final solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that includes a definition of the territorial boundaries and clear disciplinary action for any future terrorist attacks, and then prepare for new elections in the State of Palestine. A peace treaty between the State of Israel and the State of Palestine should be the fina...

🇺🇸🇪🇺🇮🇱 I wonder when I read about the recent terrorist attacks in Israel, rise in gang violence by Islamic migrants in Sweden, Islamist terrorist attacks on Swedish people in Brussels, the bomb threats and attacks on civilians by Islamist terrorists in France, the decapitated French teachers by Islamist extremists, the attack on a synagogue in Berlin, or even the comments the Egyptian president made to the US Secretary of State, who is Jewish... why are these people so extremely violent? All of ...

🇺🇸 The US government is required by law to put the security of American lives and allies first. A terrorist attack against the lives of Americans is a terrorist attack against the USA. For an American to condone a terrorist attack against the USA or an ally, and cheer the deaths of Americans, especially a government official, elected or not, is equivalent to treason. Treason is defined as "adhering to our enemies", which means to be in support of or give aid and comfort to any subjects of a for...

🇸🇪 We're so sorry to learn of the latest attacks on Swedish people. It's really disturbing that Swedes are now scared to wear anything that might identify them as Swedish.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Palestine has never existed, therefore it can not be occupied. The territory in question belonged to the Roman Empire for hundreds of years and was known as Judaea. After the Muslim Conquest in the 630s, the territory belonged to Muslim caliphates and later the Ottoman Empire for hundreds of years. Then it was acquired by the British Empire after World War I. The British promised to create a Jewish state on this territory at the request of the Jewish community living there, and then they la...

🇺🇸 Lies. This article is clearly propaganda meant to stoke racial tensions in the USA, and generate anti-American sentiment in Africa. There is no valid reason for the USA to assassinate a Congolese leader. The leader of the Congo was not a threat to the USA.

🇮🇱 I have long been a supporter of the Palestinian cause, and I agree with President Biden and his administration that a two state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is needed. However, the latest terrorist attack on Israel by Hamas is making it extremely difficult for me to sympathize with the Palestinian people at this time. The Palestinian civilians in Gaza are not entirely innocent. They voted for and elected Hamas to be their leader even though Hamas is a terrorist group. They kne...

While it's quite obvious to any intelligent human being that our enemies will always take adva...

🇺🇸 I'm not sure what the US Democrats in the House are up to, but it appears to be no good. If you truly support Ukraine, and the Democrats' entire presidential election campaign will depend on the outcome of the Russia-Ukraine war, then the ability to provide support to Ukraine is critical for the party. So why would the Democratic Party align with the far-right, pro-Trump, Russophiles to expel the House speaker right after he had finally committed to supporting aid to Ukraine? They could have ...

Huntington's book, The Clash of Civilizations, I have always considered all of Europe to be one civilization - Western Civilization - rooted in Greco-Roman heritage and traditions.

I disagree with Huntington, but I believe the European...

🇳🇪 The best outcome in Niger would be for the democratic government to be restored. But I'm afraid that if the USA or France uses military force to restore constitutional order it will be perceived as neocolonialist and it will generate strong anti-American, anti-French and anti-Western sentiment among the junta supporters. The junta supporters may not be the majority of the civilian population, but they are not an insignificant group. It appears to include all of the Niger military, including m...

🇫🇷🇳🇪 The journalist of the article posted below, Nabila Ramdani, calls herself French, but she holds a very negative opinion of her homeland. It's bordering on hatred. The saddest part of her take on the coup in Niger is that she is helping to spread the propaganda that will lead to severe setbacks for the country. Her glee for what she perceives as a blow to France is disheartening. This coup d'état is a serious blow to Niger and West Africa, not to France. It's a regression from democracy for ...

And if Germany continues on this course, our distrust of them will only grow stronger. Germany was the aggressor in World...

Removing the MAP does not shorten the membership process from two steps to one step. Removing the MAP simply changes the process from one ...

I can't stop laughing at this one. That will absolutely never happen, especially not while Erdogan is the president of Turkey. I have stated repeatedly that Erdogan requires a h...

You would expect Germany to be very sympathetic to Ukraine's situation considering Germany's history with Russia.

And the USA kept US forces in West Germany for decades to ensure that Russia did not take anymore territory f...

But the first one we would like to persuade President Biden to give this honor to is the Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. xo ...

All I have to say to that is eventually the older leaders will be gone, and the younger leaders will be making all of the decisions. And the younger leaders are open to new ideas. We love Ireland. And protecting all of our favorite countries, and our way of...

🇺🇦 We are looking forward to Ukraine's victory. I'm afraid the constant delay in weapons has allowed Russia to create a stronger defense, and this could create a frozen conflict. Perhaps some of our so-called allies did this intentionally. I wish Ukraine would have chosen the easier route we offered to them. It would have guaranteed their success without any bloodshed. I'm hoping they will succeed at the path they have chosen. I hope they will be able to push Russia out of their territory and li...

🇺🇸 The fact that Blinken met with Xi Jinping and did not even mention human rights infuriates Americans, and it's not a good look for Biden. Biden is seriously failing at steering the country and our allies in the direction we want on China. China continues to be extremely aggressive in the Indo-Pacific, and Biden has yet to take control of the situation and secure our allies in the region. There has been no progress in the Indo-Pacific. Cancelling the QUAD summit was the wrong move. Sharing def...

🇪🇺 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 I find the Declaration of Atlantic Unity extremely interesting. Today liberals are calling for free trade among allies, not adversaries, while creating an economic security strategy amongst us to protect our economies from countries that have never cooperated in the free trade rules and use economic coercion as a strategy, specifically China. Apparently that is exactly what the signers of the Declaration of Atlantic Unity were calling for. The signers of the document include former US P...

🇹🇷 I would tell Turkey if they don't intend to ratify Sweden's NATO membership, then don't bother coming to Vilnius for the next NATO summit. Please explain why we are sharing our top secret defense plans for a Russian attack with a country that has a "special relationship" with Russia, especially when that country has even invited Vladimir Putin for a state visit despite the fact that an arrest warrant has been issued for the war criminal. NATO has declared that all members must settle ethn...

🇺🇸 Honestly, if lawmakers continue to attack the female's right to make her own choices to terminate a pregnancy, you will find more and more women undergoing sterilization operations at a very early age, and the birthrate will decrease to an even lower rate. The kinds of politicians that would support a strategy of banning abortion to increase the birthrate are extremely short-sighted and extremely misguided. This is why the USA needs better people in Washington - younger people, creative peopl...

🇨🇾 We support the reunification of Cyprus. We expect Turkey to withdraw their troops from Cyprus, and allow the Turkish and Greek Cypriots to reunite. Cyprus is a small island state, a member of the European Union, and a potential candidate for NATO membership. Cyprus will be an important nation in Europe's future energy security strategy, and the security of the Mediterranean region. We do not support any concessions to Turkey regarding Cyprus. xo ...

🇺🇦 I'm happy the NATO members agreed on something regarding Ukraine's NATO membership. I believe a MAP would be better for Ukraine. A MAP would provide Ukraine with a concrete list of tasks to achieve, and a timeframe of when they could be expected to complete them. After completing the MAP, Ukraine and their supporters would have a strong argument against any objections to Ukraine's NATO membership. I think Ukraine believes that bypassing the MAP will help them become a member of NATO sooner, b...

When Erdogan appointed a new finance minister and central bank manager it appeared that he had been listening to the criticism on his economic policies and that he was ready to be a like-minded ally, but other actions are proving that that is not the case. Erdogan is really just trying to get additional concessions. Erdogan continues to postpone Sweden's NATO membership, now Turkey is insisting on a two-state solution for Cyprus that ...

🇪🇺 None of the Europeans I talk to agree with Macron on China, nor did they agree with him on Russia. I think if most Europeans felt safe depending on only the EU for their security, then Finland and Sweden, both EU members, would not be so eager to join NATO, and Ireland, also an EU member, wouldn't be debating their neutrality stance to open discussions on joining NATO either. Sweden has made it clear that they stand with Taiwan, and so have many other European countries. Sweden just held ...

The USA has mutual defense treaties with several countries in the Indo-Pacific, and those countries are feeling threatened and challenged by both China and North Korea.

Creating a new treaty organization modeled on NATO for the Indo-Pacific is the best way to deter the threats our allies in that region are facing. The USA has a duty to...

🇫🇷 France claims they have an Indo-Pacific strategy, but bowing to Beijing is really not a strategy. There is only one reason France would threaten to block a NATO liaison office in Tokyo, and that's as a favor to Beijing. France needs to decide whose side they are on. Is the country going to cooperate with it's allies, or is it going to continue to undermine their security? I understand now why countries in the Indo-Pacific do not trust France. xo ...

🇩🇰 Americans love the Danish Prime Minister. Americans prefer for the POTUS to show more solidarity with Denmark, and to be more aligned with the Danes on global affairs. We feel the Danes share a similar perspective as most centrist Americans on foreign affairs and even on domestic policies.

We feel the Germans tend to pull the POTUS in the wrong direction, especially on Ch...

But birthright citizens have no such process in the USA, and therefore are allowed to hold other citizenships as well. Swiss citizenship, on the other h...

The UN Security Council is intended to reflect the current distribution of power and influence in the world, not as you believe it should be, but...

🇺🇸🇺🇦 The USA can provide Ukraine with a mutual cooperation and defense treaty, just like the ones we have with our other non-NATO allies. This treaty will be the best security guarantee for Ukraine, and Ukraine only needs to win the support of the USA to make it happen, which they already have. This alliance will be almost equivalent to NATO membership, and will deter future Russian attacks. The USA can help Ukraine meet any NATO requirements with training exercises and military equipment donati...

In my worldview intelligent human beings are above that kind of behavior. I will criticize anyone that...

🇺🇸 I don't think NATO should go global. I think the liaison office in Tokyo is a great idea, but the calls for NATO to become a global organization are not. NATO has their hands full with the North Atlantic region, and NATO should remain focused on the North Atlantic region. There is a war in Europe and we have a few rogue NATO allies, but NATO is still a very successful security community. Expanding NATO's focus to the entire world, however, would make it less successful. Imagine how difficult ...

🇺🇦 The USA will make sure that Russia does not achieve any of their objectives. They will not keep any of Ukraine's territory. They will not steal any of Ukraine's natural gas reserves. They will not prevent Ukraine from joining the EU. They will not prevent Ukraine from joining NATO. They will, however, pay reparations for all of the damage and war crimes they have committed against Ukraine. And their leader, Vladimir Putin, will be going to prison if he dares to set foot outside of Russia. Th...

🇺🇦 We want Ukraine to recover their occupied territories. They need those territories for their economic recovery. They need those territories to secure the Black Sea region. They need those territories so they can quickly become compliant with NATO and EU requirements. And they can not recover those territories without fighter jets. xo ...

🇺🇦 Only the members of NATO that actually take security threats seriously and comply with military spending targets have a voice in the matter. Ukraine does not yet meet the requirements for NATO, but neither does many of the current members of NATO. Ukraine meets the NATO requirements better than Germany does.

I think the Indo-Pacific needs a new treaty organization like the North Atlantic. The Indo-Pacific Treaty Organization (IPTO) should include, as it's founding members, all of the USA's allies in the Indo-Paci...

🇹🇷 I think it would be wise to immediately remove all of the US nuclear arsenal that is located within Turkey's territory, since they apparently have a 'special relationship' with Russia. We should temporarily move the Turkish facility to Greece, with a final destination set for Cyprus if they join NATO. Turkey is not a like-minded ally, and I don't think we need any more proof of this to know it is true. It's unacceptable for NATO allies to have a 'special relationship' with Russia, especially...

🇺🇸🇺🇦 President Biden referred to South Korea as a success story during President Yoon Suk-yeol's recent visit to the USA to celebrate the Korean-American alliance. That success story happened 70 years ago, when the USA fought along with Korea to help defeat the invading communist regime of North Korea. As President Yoon Suk-yeol stated in his address to the US Congress, South Korea was receiving US AID after the war, but they have now grown to become the 10th largest economy in the world.

If they do not approve of the military dictators, then it follows that they must not approve of the Wagne...

I believe President Biden seeks Germany's support on European security issues, because he does not want to be perceived as anti-German, confrontational, or as a unilateralist. So he is withholding verbal support for Ukraine's membership in NATO, until Germany agrees to support their membership. I believe Presid...

But because we have an alliance with most of the nations in Europe, we must work with our European allies on European security issues. I have noticed that the current U...

They copy all of your personal photos, even the ones you do not specifically select to upload to their platform. They collect your text messages, your contacts, and their phone numbers...

🇳🇱 Paris stinks right now. The French are furious over the pension reform, even though they can still retire earlier than everyone else in the world. They are going to storm the bastille again. The first time was revolutionary. They changed the world. This time it feels very shallow. We decided to visit Amsterdam. I've been wanting to visit Amsterdam for years, and every time I planned a trip something crazy would happen like the pandemic. This time we didn't plan at all, we just spontaneously ...

🇺🇸 Many of my friends are upset that President Biden approved the Willow Project, and they are now threatening lawsuits against the project. I totally understand their anger, because a few years ago, I would have been just as angry as they are. Now I cringe at their inability to understand the complexity of the world. Fortunately they won't get very far with the lawsuits. President Biden is doing the right thing. Energy costs in Europe are not sustainable. The USA has to produce more fossil fue...

🇺🇦 I did not realize the importance of the hierarchy of prestige among states. Now that I do, I understand why Ukraine insists on a complete victory over Russia. It will destroy Russia's prestige, and in turn, Russia's influence in the world while boosting Ukraine's prestige and influence. As Robert Gilpin noted in his book, War and Change in World Politics, it is one of the fews ways to create a systemic change in the world. It could potentially allow Ukraine to replace Russia as a dominant sta...

🇳🇱 Any missile strike on the Hague in the Netherlands will be met with massive retaliation. ...

🇵🇱 Poland breaks my heart with their anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, but I do appreciate everything they are doing for Ukraine. They have accepted millions of Ukrainian refugees into Poland, and they are one of the fiercest supporters of Kyiv. They were also the first country to offer Ukraine tanks and now fighter jets. They keep pushing the West to do more and provide more weapons to Ukraine. The leaders of Poland loathe Vladimir Putin as much as I do. So I still consider them strong allies, despite the r...

🇺🇦 The Ukrainians have done an exceptional job at defending themselves against Russia with very limited resources and against all odds. I think we need to give the Ukrainian generals more credit for their brilliance in military strategy, and let them make their own tactical decisions. We should focus on providing Ukraine with the weapons they need to win including ammo, tanks, long-range missiles, and jets. Ukraine has proven that they will be a huge asset to both the European Union and NATO. I ...

🇮🇹 On the occasion of Milan Design Week, Billie Pate presents Fungo Studio, her latest Capitalist Art project from April 17-23. Join us for mushroom lattes and learn about the process of making textiles and furniture out of mushroom fibers. We are giving out samples to interior designers, furniture designers, fashion designers, and anyone else interested in working with new, sustainable biomaterials. xo ...

🇺🇸 I started to sense a strong anti-American sentiment in Europe during the Trump administration. Something I had never experienced before. It really disturbed me. I became really concerned about the USA's international relations and global reputation. That's when I became interested in foreign affairs. I started following the leaders of each European country, the leaders of the European Union, and all of our other allies in the Indo-Pacific. I was listening to everything they had to say to try...

🇫🇷 I learned French, my fourth language, because I love French culture. I knew my future husband would most likely be French, not American, because French men are more open to unconventional relationships and they respect and admire my bisexuality. xo ...

🏳️‍🌈 Don't hate me because my words are more interesting and more powerful than yours. Don't hate me because my art is also more interesting and powerful than yours and sells at higher prices than yours. Don't hate me because my ideas are cooler than yours, and people areound the world are eager to meet me and work with me rather than you. Don't hate me because I am more sophisticated than you are. Don't hate me because I have better taste than you do. Don't hate me because my girlfriend is...

🇺🇸 Never keep all of your eggs in one basket or all of your money in one bank. As a rule, you shouldn’t keep more than $250k in one bank account, because the government only insures that much for each account. Those who used Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) exclusively have no money right now. We never banked with SVB, but we have decided to create our own bank as a future precaution. I am a firm believer in learning from other people’s mistakes. I really don’t trust anyone with anything these days. H...

🇲🇩 Thank you President Biden for giving Moldova a security guarantee and energy assistance. Moldova is the poorest country in Europe. They can not afford the extremely high prices of energy, and Russia will use this issue to destabilize the country. xo ...

🇫🇷 🇬🇧 We're happy to see a new bromance developing between the UK and France. We need these two to be strong allies, not rivals. ...

🇬🇪 We intend to help Georgia carve out a path to security and stability for themselves like all of the other countries in Europe. Georgia will choose their own path. xo ...

🇩🇪 🇦🇹 Berlin is the first European city I ever visited. Vienna was the second. German is my second language. German writers, such as Thomas Mann, Herman Hesse, Goethe, were my favorite authors when I was younger. And German and Austrian artists, like Albrecht Dürer, Max Ernst, Egon Schiele and Gustav Klimt, have long been my favorite artists, and still are. Berlin and Vienna were my top European destinations, and I visited them before I ever set foot in London or Paris or any other destination o...

🇺🇸 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 I think the international migration law needs to change. Migrants are being weaponized and exploited. And the EU, UK and USA are being bombarded with unsustainable waves of migrants who take advantage of the international migration law. The whole entire world can not move to the West. If they want the same freedom and prosperity as the West, they should work to create governments more like ours in their homelands. And we need to help them do that. We need to put more pressure on the re...

🏳️‍🌈 Yes, I know the Conservatives are sooo conservative, but they will come around. Once they realize how smart and intelligent we are, they will open up to us. We are already starting to win them over. We have already proven we are the best businesspeople in the world (Tim Cook), and that's what Conservatives respect most of all. We're also the best musicians (Frédéric Chopin), artists (Leonardo da Vinci), writers (Thomas Mann), scientists (Sir Francis Bacon)... We all owe our freedom to one p...

🇨🇭 Switzerland has the most economic freedom in all of Europe, and they are second place in the entire world. https://www.heritage.org/index/country/switzerland That's one of the reasons we have started businesses there. Other top European countries are Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, the Scandinavians, and the Baltics. xo ...

🇪🇪 We adore Estonia's Prime Minister. She's one of the greatest leaders in Europe. I'm happy her political party won another election, which means Estonians approve of her leadership too. There have been rumors that she might become NATO's next Secretary General. I would support that. The USA should have a state dinner in her honor. I believe Eastern European leaders understand Russia better than Western European leaders. The Baltic nations were former members of the Soviet Union, and they have...

🇫🇷 It's the new trend in France. The President of France and the First Lady of France have made unconventional relationships acceptable for politicians and political life. If heterosexual women can date younger men, then homosexual women can date younger women. xo ...

🇺🇸 We're creating these really beautiful sites across the USA where you can have an authentic experience of American life. The USA is huge and varied, and so are the sites we are creating. A smart, sophisticated townhouse in New York City, a Waldenesque cabin deep in a forest in upstate New York, roaming with the buffalo in Montana, wild horses in Wyoming, a little house on the prairie, a lavish home in the Hollywood Hills... We're creating several unique and authentic American experiences. xo ...

🇸🇪 🇫🇮 🇮🇪 🇲🇹 🇨🇾 🇦🇹 🇨🇭 "Austria should accept responsibility and join the NATO alliance." I agree. There are quite a few countries in Europe that should join NATO: Sweden, Finland, Ireland, Malta, Cyprus, Austria, even Switzerland. Because of Sweden and Finland's geolocation, their membership in NATO has become critical, and they understand this. That is why they are joining. The president should ensure our allies, Hungary and Turkey, know we expect them to approve their memberships to the al...

🇫🇷 Raising the retirement age is causing massive demonstrations in France. They are raising it just two years, and the French are furious about it. I'm from a generation that doesn't even think about retirement. For me the point of life is to find a job or career path that you love so much that you never want to retire. Also having several small businesses makes retirement meaningless. I'll retire when my life ends, not before then. I think helping people find their passion, and then helping...

🇺🇸 We are looking at a 7000 acre forest in the Adirondacks in upstate New York - one contiguous, unadulterated forest with a lake in the middle. I don't know anything about forest management, but I am looking into it. And the asking price is less than the cost of a townhouse in New York City. xo ...

🇫🇷 🇺🇸 There is no contest between American LNG and nuclear energy. American LNG has helped Europe reduce their dependence on Russian LNG. No one is disputing that. But the USA has not been able to boost production to the level Europe really requires, and that is why energy is so expensive in Europe right now. French nuclear energy will not significantly reduce worldwide demand for American LNG, but it will play a huge role in bringing down energy costs for Europeans. That is critical. Although...

🇺🇦 I cried when Russia invaded Ukraine. I broke into tears. I was in a bar - we were at a party. No one else at the party knew what was happening. It was really surreal to be surrounded by so many happy, laughing, and dancing people, who apparently were not aware of what was happening on the other side of the world. I just walked out and went home. I can't wait to celebrate Ukraine's defeat of Russia. I can't wait for Vladimir Putin to be completely crushed. I can't wait to celebrate his death....

🇺🇸 It's the called the Free World, because we can do and say whatever we want whether you like it or not. And that's exactly what we intend to do. And anyone who gets in our way, will find themselves in prison for violating our rights. xo ...

🇷🇸 🇽🇰 Peace in the Balkans is a critical step in securing Europe. The EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell is doing a great job. We're happy to see the leaders of Serbia and Kosovo talking. Normalizing ties between the two countries will be a great step towards peace in the Balkans. This is all great news. xo ...

🇬🇧 I haven't read the Brexit Deal, and I don't intend to. That's required reading for the British people. I am not British. Certainly the King and members of the UK parliament will make the right choice for the UK. I prefer to go along with their opinion rather than form my own. One possibility is to pass the deal but give it a limited timeframe, say one or two years, to create a trial period for the new solutions and see if they work for everyone. The UK tired PM Boris Johnson's solutions, an...

🇺🇸 One thing I have learned from this Google experience is to never trust Google with anything at all. We must become a domain registrar to protect our domains. Paramount Domains will be a new service available to all of our Paramount Tech clients. We are also launching Paramount Cloud by the end of the year. xo ...

🇺🇸 Despite Google, I will continue writing in my public journal. My words will continue to be available at the link below. xo https://listed.to/@billiepate ...

🇺🇸 Google has literally locked me out of my own account, and is now trying hijack all of my domains that I had registered with them. It's unbelievable how blatantly belligerent the tech industry has become against Americans while the US government does absolutely nothing about it. We promise we will. I'm a trained computer scientist, Northwestern University alum, magna cum laude, and so are many of my friends. Unlike the judges on the US Supreme Court, we are "experts at the internet." We hav...

🇺🇸 I think we're just tired of writing to our politicians. We're tired of trying to convince them to work towards our vision. We're ready to take their place instead. We're tired of Putin. We're tired of Netanyahu. We're tired of Jinping. We're tired of the horror stories coming out of Africa and other places in the world. It's gross. And we don't believe the US government is doing enough about any of these things. Either they don't have a vision, or they just don't care. Some of the politician...

🇺🇸 🇺🇦 We're giving President Biden the opportunity to fix a previous foreign policy failure from the Obama-Biden Administration era - Russia's annexation of Crimea. Securing the Black Sea region is an absolute necessity for our future stability. If he doesn't do that, then we will see him and his team as unable to execute long-term foreign policy strategies that are in our best interest. His team has strengthened NATO's eastern flank, but that was the easy task. The Baltics insisted on having ...

🇺🇸 I bought my first home in LA, which sits on a 0.5 acre lot - that's not a lot of land. Over the past year, however, we have snatched up thousands of acres across the USA: California, Iowa, Illinois, Wyoming and Montana at unbelievable prices. What shall I do with all of it? Most of it was farmland. Most of it still is farmland - rented and profitable. We've got a bison aka buffalo farm now. We have a horse farm. We have a sunflower farm. We have a lavender farm. We have an orchard. We have ...

🇫🇷 Nuclear energy is the only green energy that will not make us dependent on Russia or China or any other current or future authoritarian power for critical minerals and other raw materials. Nuclear energy is also the one and only carbon neutral energy source - no carbon at all is released throughout the entire production process. Nuclear energy is one of only two green energy sources that can meet the energy demands of heavy industry - LNG is the other. Nuclear energy is the only green ene...

🇺🇦 President Biden's visit to Ukraine is encouraging. Once again he sent the best possible message to the world at just the right moment. Thank you! I was a little upset about the State Department's comments on Crimea, calling it Putin's red line. I felt they were giving Russia a sliver of hope. But the president has negated that message with his visit to Ukraine today. We're happy that Biden's team is getting the messaging right most of the time, but ultimately we need the Biden Administratio...

🇺🇸 "Don't look at Twitter, look at the people in power." I don't entirely agree with that statement. It could be interpreted as ignore the powerful, clear-sighted voices you hear on social media, and instead listen to the boring old men in Washington. The boring old men in Washington, however, will not be in power for very long. The young, powerful, clear-sighted voices you hear on social media, will be the next people in power, especially if they already have your attention. People with a knack...

🇺🇦 If China wanted peace, they would have told their ally, Russia, to stop attacking other countries. China wants Russia to control the Black Sea region. That region is part of their grand strategy. Both China and Russia believed that a war on Ukraine would force Ukraine into negotiations, and force Ukraine and the rest of the world to concede Crimea to Russia. They want to control the Black Sea region, and they need Crimea to do that. They are positioning themselves so they can dominate that ...

🇬🇧 China considers the UK's previous possession of Hong Kong as one of the most humiliating experiences of their entire history. China's goal is revenge, regardless of how long it takes. I was convinced Sunak would succumb to a China appeasement strategy if he became Prime Minister of the UK. I also did not believe that Sunak would resolve the EU-UK issues, because he actively campaigned for Brexit. That is why I did not support his candidacy, and I still do not support him, because that appear...

🇲🇩 Moldova is a very small nation. They will not be able to defend themselves against Russia. Russia is already planning Moldova's destruction, and trying to destroy the Moldovan government. Moldova was considering a bid to join the alliance, and Russia immediately created a plan to destroy the government. We should allow Moldova to join NATO if that is what they decide to do, even before they completely meet all of the requirements in order to protect them from Russia. Perhaps we can create a n...

🇺🇦🇺🇸 If the Biden Administration is not intelligent enough to lead the world and do the right thing, they will not be in office for very long. It is vital to European security that we secure the Black Sea region, and there is no other way to secure this region without Ukraine - all of Ukraine, especially Crimea. We want this goal accomplished. Russia's defeat is a given. There is no acceptable reason for failure. Failing to accomplish this goal will be considered proof of incompetence. As Henr...

🇹🇼🇺🇸 The USA and Europe are absolutely capable of creating their own semiconductor industries. We invented the technology and Taiwan's tech king was trained in US schools. We have the knowledge and we have the funds to accomplish our goals. The only reason western democracies haven't already done so is because we did not consider this industry to be a national security issue before now. We felt comfortable allowing other nations to monopolize the industry. What Taiwan's tech king, Morris Chang,...

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Elon Musk can not be trusted. Elon Musk has billions of dollars in loans from the CCP, and China is Russia's ally. He continuously uses Russian talking points in his arguments. His latest move to restrict Ukraine from using Starlink to defend themselves is suspicious. Elon Musk could be providing Russia with vital information, since Ukraine uses Starlink for all communications. We want a team of investigators to confirm and verify that Elon Musk has not used Starlink to provide Russia with ...

🇺🇦🇺🇸 We are short on ammo, they say, because ammunition companies have not yet ramped up their production of ammo, and our leaders don't know how to signal that we need them to do so. All NATO allies should submit an ammo order to their suppliers to refill their stockpiles, and start negotiating deadlines for order fulfillment with the suppliers. That should be a clear signal that the ammo suppliers need to ramp up production of ammo. Can the ammo suppliers produce ammo at the same rate as Ukr...

🇺🇸 On the occasion of Frieze Los Angeles, Billie Pate presents Sitting Pretty II, her second series of drawings of female friends and lovers from February 16-19. I'm traveling back to LA to see my old LA friends - all artists and musicians. I lived in Los Angeles for several years after college before moving to New York City. I bought my first home there. The city has a Spanish Mediterranean vibe that I love, the weather is great, and it's surrounded by mountains and the Pacific Ocean. Plus LA...

🇨🇱 The USA needs to focus more on the Western Hemisphere, all of the Americas, not just the large countries like Brazil and Mexico, but all of the liberal democracies that respect human rights. It's not the size of the country that makes them relevant to American interests, but our shared values. The last thing we want is for Latin American success stories like Chile, Uruguay, Costa Rica, or even Argentina, which is already facing severe economic issues, to succumb to economic disasters creating...
