Is Graham Out of His Mind? Imperial US Is an Ally No More!

Feb 19, 2026 | Silicon Bites Ep288 | 2026-02-18 | All the evidence points to the U.S. no longer being an ally of Europe. But it’s not a neutral or indifferent stance. It’s actively malicious, meddling, malignant and intentionally destabilising. The evidence is all around, and yet Rubio still got a standing ovation at the MSC. Could there be any greater show of craven weakness and appeasement to an increasingly tyrannical, capricious and imperial U.S.?!

This episode: the Munich Meltdown and the “Kremlin Vassal” Tour, of Hungary and Slovakia: Graham’s unseemly tantrum, Rubio’s weasel words, and the Geneva so-called ‘peace conference’ squeeze on Ukraine. The U.S. is being unfair to Ukraine, and to everyone, except Vladimir Putin and his client states. Isn’t this clear to everyone yet?

"I'll Never Trust Him." President Zelenskyy on Trump, Putin, Paralympics & Why Russia Should Apologize.

Feb 18, 2026 | Four years ago, Vladimir Putin launched a war he believed he could win in four days. More than one million of his men have been killed or wounded since, as well as more than half a million Ukrainians.

Now, for the first time in just over a year, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy joins Piers Morgan again, as Trump-brokered peace talks in Geneva reportedly ended in acrimony. The US president is pushing for Ukraine to make concessions - will their leader oblige?

He discusses his feelings on Trump - and his relationship with Putin - plus first hears the news of Russia being allowed to compete in the Winter Paralympics from Piers as the news breaks and gives his reaction.

Piers is then joined by author Scott Horton, former US assistant secretary of state General Mark Kimmitt, senior editor at Human Events Jack Posobiec and Ukrainian commentator Anna Danylchuk to get their response to the interview.

Why Trump Sides with Putin | The David Frum Show

Jan 21, 2026 | On this week’s episode of “The David Frum Show,” The Atlantic’s David Frum examines one of the most consequential deceptions of the Trump presidency: the insistence that grocery prices are falling when Americans know from lived experience that they are not. David explains how tariffs and trade policy are deliberately driving food costs higher, why Trump keeps lying about it, and how breaking this promise strikes at the core of the fragile trust between voters and government.

Then David is joined by Fiona Hill, a former adviser to three U.S. presidents and a key witness in Trump’s first impeachment, to analyze how Vladimir Putin sees the world and why Trump remains so drawn to strongman power. Frum and Hill discuss Putin’s long game in Ukraine, Trump’s archaic and backward worldview, and how Trump’s presidency has been a gift to Putin while steadily eroding American credibility abroad.

Finally, David closes the episode with a discussion of “Among the Believers,” by V. S. Naipaul, reflecting on the Iranian Revolution and why authoritarian regimes repeatedly fail at modernity.

Trump Takes Orders from Putin over War in Ukraine, as Russia Pushes Propaganda Plan upon President

Dec 30, 2025 | Donald Trump claims he can end the war in Ukraine—but the optics and timing of recent events tell a far more troubling story. As Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy traveled to Florida for critical peace talks, Trump publicly highlighted a phone call with Vladimir Putin, positioning himself as the central power broker while Russia escalated threats and spread disinformation. In this video, we break down how Russia’s sudden claim of a foiled drone attack on Putin’s residence fits a familiar pattern of information warfare, why Zelenskyy has warned of imminent strikes on Kyiv’s government buildings, and how Trump’s personalized, optics-driven diplomacy risks pressuring Ukraine rather than confronting Russian aggression.

IHIP News: Trump Can’t Stop Glazing Putin! Embarrassing Press Conference Has Allies in Disbelief

Dec 19, 2025 | Trump goes on and on about his love for Putin in front of Zelensky.


Very strong language alert!

Trump is such a WEAK man. He understands FA about geopolitics and/or diplomacy. He is a very IGNORANT person. He has read NOTHING, and it shows! Add all this to his insatiable need to become ever richer, his propensity to lie through his teeth, and his corrupt nature, and we have a disaster in the making. — © Mark Alexander

Trump’s Secret Business Deals with Putin—Profit over Peace? | To the Point

Dec 4, 2025 | Are U.S.–Russia talks about Ukraine really about peace—or big business? Donald Trump didn’t just send diplomats. He sent his son-in-law Jared Kushner and real estate mogul Steve Witkoff to Moscow. Behind the so-called peace plan, insiders claim major economic deals with Vladimir Putin are on the table. Could this come at Ukraine’s expense and threaten Europe’s security?

Meanwhile, Ukraine is losing ground on the battlefield, and a corruption scandal shakes its leadership. On To the Point we ask: Trump’s secret business deals with Putin—profit over peace?

Guests: Roman Goncharenko, DW – Malte Lehming, Tagesspiegel - Sudha David-Wilp, German Marshall Fund



Diplomats should be negotiating an end to this war, not Trump’s friends and family members. Witkoff has Russian roots and is a man who has made his money in real estate. Making deals will be in his DNA! And as for Kushner, we all know what he’s interested in: big bucks! Isn’t it true to say that the Trump regime is trying to bring this war to a close as quickly as possible so that Trump & Co get on as quickly as possible with enriching themselves? These people don’t give a damn about a just peace or Europe's security. Nor do they care how much land Ukraine has to give up as long as deals with Russia can be made as soon as possible. Trump can see that there are billions to be made and he wants to make those billions now. Time is not on the old man’s side.

Zelenskyy should give up no land to Russia. Not under any circumstances. Putin must be punished for his aggression. If he isn’t, he won’t stop at Ukraine. Poland or the Baltic States will be next on Putin’s list to invade. — © Mark Alexander

Trump’s Attack on Europe ‘Plays Straight into Moscow’s Hands’

Dec 10, 2025 | “There are a lot of smiles in Moscow these days.”

Trump is undermining his partnership with the EU and emboldening Putin by pushing “an alternate reality” that ignores Europe’s actual security risks, says former EU ambassador to the US João Vale de Almeida.



Trump is a traitorous AH! Moreover, Trump is Putin’s stooge, and for as long as Americans tolerate this dangerous man in the White House, America should not be considered our true friend or ally. We Europeans had better get used to the idea that we are alone. We can no longer count on the Americans. Any hitherto perceived “special relationship” under Trump is dead. Furthermore, we need to stop bellyaching about why this is all happening. To me, there is no real mystery. Much has gone on between Trump and Russia in the past that has yet to come out. The result: Trump is Putin’s marionette; Putin, Trump’s puppeteer! But there is another important dimension, too. It is this: Trump is in a great hurry because he sees great opportunities ahead that his buddy Putin will make possible for him. Trump and his family will be able to profit greatly from an American rapprochement with Russia by bringing Putin in from the cold. Zelenskyy’s intransigence is a hindrance to future billions for the Trump clan. This isn’t rocket science. — © Mark Alexander

Volodymyr Zelenskyy due to Meet European Leaders for High-level Ukraine Talks | BBC News

Dec 8, 2025 | Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is meeting key European leaders in London on Monday, as Ukraine's allies plan their response to an ongoing US push for Kyiv to accept concessions in peace talks.

The leaders of France and Germany will join Zelenskyy and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer at No 10 Downing Street as they seek to ensure any deal deters a future Russian attack.

The high-level meeting follows three days of talks in Florida, where Zelenskyy's chief negotiator pushed for changes to a White House plan widely considered to accommodate central Kremlin demands.

The US and Ukraine said there was progress but US President Donald Trump appeared to criticise Zelenskyy on Sunday, saying he "hasn't read" the draft.

Zelensky’s Top Aide Resigns Amid Widening Corruption Scandal

THE NEW YORK TIMES: Andriy Yermak, President Volodymyr Zelensky’s chief of staff and top peace negotiator, became the highest-ranking casualty of an investigation into a vast kickback scheme.

President Volodymyr Zelensky’s powerful chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, resigned on Friday in the highest-level political realignment in Ukraine since Russia’s all-out invasion nearly four years ago.

The departure of Mr. Yermak, who had headed Ukraine’s negotiating team in peace talks with the Trump administration, also put in doubt the future of the latest round of diplomatic efforts by the United States, Ukraine and European nations to end the war.

Mr. Yermak stepped down amid a spiraling, $100 million embezzlement scandal that has already led to the dismissal of two cabinet ministers and even threatened to topple Mr. Zelensky’s entire cabinet.

“I am grateful to Andriy for always representing Ukraine’s position in the negotiation track exactly as it should be represented,” Mr. Zelensky said in a video address announcing the resignation. He said he had accepted the resignation to “avoid rumors and speculation” about his chief of staff.

Mr. Yermak, 54, is the highest-level official to lose his job in the fallout from the 15-month investigation called Operation Midas, revealed by Ukraine’s top anti-corruption agencies, which said the effort had produced 1,000 hours of wiretaps.

Mr. Yermak has not been officially named in the investigation. But on Friday, investigators searched his home in Kyiv. » | Kim Barker and Andrew E. Kramer | Reporting from Kyiv, Ukraine | Friday, November 28, 2025
