I would like to reiterate Ukraine’s commitment to peace. None of us wants an endless war. Ukraine is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible to bring lasting peace closer. Nobody wants peace more than Ukrainians. My team and I stand ready to work under President Trump’s strong leadership to get a peace that lasts. We are ready to work fast to end the war, and the first stages could be the release of prisoners and truce in the sky — ban on missiles, long-ranged drones, bombs on energy and other civilian infrastructure — and truce in the sea immediately, if Russia will do the same. Then we want to move very fast through all next stages and to work with the US to agree a strong final deal. We do really value how much America has done to help Ukraine maintain its sovereignty and independence. And we remember the moment when things changed when President Trump provided Ukraine with Javelins. We are grateful for this. Our meeting in Washington, at the White House on Friday, did not go the way it was supposed to be. It is regrettable that it happened this way. It is time to make things right. We would like future cooperation and communication to be constructive. Regarding the agreement on minerals and security, Ukraine is ready to sign it in any time and in any convenient format. We see this agreement as a step toward greater security and solid security guarantees, and I truly hope it will work effectively.

Ex-Michigan Senate Majority Leader, Mike Shirkey, was recorded on hidden cameras telling the truth about January 6, 2021. “It was ALL staged, Mitch McConnell WANTED IT to be a mess, so he could secure a Trump impeachment conviction for Pelosi and Schumer”

Wise words on the cause of inflation from Milton Friedman: "Inflation is made in Washington because only Washington can create money...What produces it is too much government spending and too much government creation of money and nothing else."

The thin excuse the censors use to justify their dangerous, authoritarian measures is that the proles will spread misinformation amongst themselves if given the right to free speech, and they will end up voting for things and people the powerful don't like. Actually, the purpose of censorship is to cover up for government policy failure. A reminder about what the censors got wrong during the covid era: - the covid infection fatality rate is an order of magnitude lower than the case fatality rate - there is an enormous age gradient in hospitalization and mortality risk from infection, with miniscule risk to most children - covid is airborne, actually - the lab leak hypothesis is not a conspiracy theory, and is the likely explanation of the origin of covid - hunting for viruses in the wild, bringing them to biolabs in city centers, and genetically altering them to make them more transmissible and dangerous to humans is a dangerous idea that governments should no longer fund and should regulate vigorously - lockdowns are a luxury of the laptop class and do not ultimately protect against infection - school closures are an irrational response to covid, as proven by the Swedish experience - children are harmed in myriad ways by school closures and forced online 'learning' is not a substitute for real learning - many children are not resilient to the harms of school closures - the lockdowns and the financing of them with printed trillions caused tremendous economic damage, including severe disruption of supply chains, small businesses, and lingering inflation - the economic dislocation of the lockdowns led to the starvation of millions of the poorest people in the world - the covid vaccine's protection against disease transmission was never proved in a randomized trial - the covid vaccine mandates and the false assurances of near-perfect efficacy against infection and transmission undermined public trust in public health - there are people who were harmed by the covid vaccine, actually - there is substantial immunity against subsequent infection (at least until the next variant) provided by covid recovery - there is no good randomized evidence that mask mandates have any substantial impact on covid transmission - there is no evidence whatsoever that toddler masking reduces the risk of covid infection for anyone I could go on, but the point should be clear. The censorship machine suppressed criticism of the government getting all those important points wrong, and bad public health policy was the covid-era norm, with countless people harmed as a result. The purpose of censorship now is to protect the reputations of the powerful people who pushed all these policies so that governments protect their power to impose them again in the future.
