President Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky are considering a ‘mega deal’ that would see the US buy battlefield-tested Ukrainian drones in exchange for Kyiv agreeing to buy a swath of weapons from America, the Ukrainian leader said.

It was only a few months ago when President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance invited Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky to the White House for the sole purpose of publicly humiliating him on live television. Then Trump tried to push through an untimely peace to the Russia Ukraine war by siding with Putin and forcing Zelensky to accept terms negotiated without his input. That was then, this is now, and now Trump has come back to Zelensky, tail between his legs, asking Ukraine to give America drone technology we don’t currently possess? This is not simply theater, this is the theater of the absurd in the extreme. That’s the memo.

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32 (KJB)

Do you ever get tired of watching all this Deep State and New World Order nonsense? I sure do. It doesn’t fool me for a second, I have a King James Bible to show me the truth, but it does wear me out nearly to the point of exhaustion. As for Donald Trump, you have to come to one of two conclusions. Either he is just flailing about, doing whatever pops into his head at the moment no matter how crazy and contradictory it may be, or, he is taking orders from the Deep State who tagged his right ear with a warning shot last July in Butler, PA. Maybe a little of both, but I will say this much. If the idea that the United States has to come crawling to tiny, little Ukraine for drone technology we don’t have, but they do, doesn’t set off every red flag and alarm bell in your brain, there is something very, very wrong.

Trump discussing drone ‘mega deal’ with Ukraine — as US tech lags behind adversaries: ‘The people of America need this technology’

FROM THE NY POST: Speaking exclusively with The Post on Wednesday, Zelensky revealed that his latest talks with Trump focused on a breakthrough deal that would see the US and Ukraine prop up each other’s aerial technology — with Kyiv offering to share everything it’s learned about modern warfare in the three-year conflict with Russia.

The deal could be transformative for the US military and national security, with officials and drone experts warning that America’s technology lags far behind Russia and China, and American soldiers are ill-equipped to use the UAVs or defend against the types of devices being produced by adversaries.

“The people of America need this technology, and you need to have it in your arsenal,” Zelensky told The Post of Ukraine’s latest drones, which have been able to penetrate Russia’s defenses to take out heavy bombers and hit as deep as 800 miles over the border.

“I think this is really a mega deal, a win-win, as they say,” he added.

Back in February, Zelensky was Trump’s punching bag. What changed?

I feel sad for you if you think what happened in the White House was good today, it was theater, nothing more. Yes, they beat up on little Zelensky pretty good, and I have no problem with that but will they talk to PUTIN with that same level of harshness??It’s a show, people. pic.twitter.com/KTZPZAQ2cE

Drone warfare has become the standout method of battle in the Ukraine war, with Moscow and Kyiv trading hundreds of aerial blows a day using the explosives-carrying UAVs. Zelensky, who touted drones as the key tool that has allowed his country to fight back against the Russian invasion for more than three years, offered everything he’s learned while under fire to help the US and NATO prepare for the new generation of war.

“We will be ready to share this experience with America and other European partners,” he said, adding that talks were also underway with Denmark, Norway and Germany.

Experts and officials have sounded the alarm on America’s blind spot when it comes to drone technology and warfare.

“We all know the same thing. We aren’t giving the American war fighter what they need to survive warfare today,” Trent Emeneker, project manager of the Autonomy Portfolio at the military’s Defense Innovation Unit, told the New York Times.

“If we had to go to war tomorrow, do we have what we need? No,” he added.

The issues were made evident in a four-day testing camp held last month in Alaska by the defense department, which saw soldiers and private contractors repeatedly crash and fail to take down prototype drones, The Times reported. Some of the drones failed to launch altogether, and one of the drones that could fly ended up hitting the wrong target.

The potential “mega deal” also comes as US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth issued a new order to “cut red tape” on US drone production. The Pentagon memo highlighted the need for the US to keep pace as military drone production skyrockets around the world. READ MORE

The US Navy’s newest and biggest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, is set be deployed to the Mediterranean in show of American military might in Middle East

The Pentagon is right now sending a message to world at large that, even though it is Israel who is involved in a conflict with Iran over nuclear weapons, it is the United States who will ultimately determine its fate. Talk about a memo! Over the next few days, the Mediterranean region will be host to the USS Gerald R. Ford, the USS Carl Vinson and the soon-to-be retired USS Nimitz. If World War 3 does break out, America will be in pole position. That’s the memo.

“They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas.” Ezekiel 28:8 (KJB)

President Trump spoke Wednesday morning to reporters about the Israel-Iran conflict. When asked if the US plans to strike Iran, Trump replied “I may do it, I may not do it,” adding “nobody knows what I’m gonna do.” That’s about sums it up, no one knows just what Donald Trump is going to do, including Donald Trump. Commander of US Central Command (CENTCOM) Gen. Michael Kurilla met with US President Donald Trump and presented him with military options regarding Iran, a source familiar with the details told The Jerusalem Post Wednesday. At this point, a US strike on Iran is all but certain.

US moves its newest super carrier USS Gerald Ford to Mediterranean as massive military hardware buildup near Iran continues

FROM THE NY POST: The USS Ford, America’s flagship 1,100-foot nuclear-powered carrier, is expected to be sent to Europe as soon as next week, making it the third US aircraft carrier group in the region, CNN’s Senior National Reporter Zachary Cohen reported on Wednesday. It’s the latest public movement of military hardware to the region as the Iran-Israel conflict ratchets up.

The $13 billion carrier’s deployment — likely to the Mediterranean Sea — had been scheduled last year, sources to the network. But, it will still be seen as an unmistakable sign of increased global tensions surrounding the ongoing air strikes between Israel and Iran.

The vast majority of Americans across the board agree with Donald Trump that Iran should never have a nuclear weapon. In my opinion, I think the US should do a precision strike on Iranian nuclear sites, and be over with the whole thing. One and done. What do YOU think? pic.twitter.com/whsfDSUCrS

The Ford will join the USS Carl Vinson, which is already in the Persian Gulf, and the USS Nimitz — which the US announced it was sending from Southeast Asia earlier this week.

It comes after President Trump teased a possible US strike on Iran following the country’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei rejected calls for unconditional surrender.

Several other US warships have left a US naval base in Bahrain as part of increased military movements around Iran, it was reported on Wednesday. Aerial refueling tankers have also been sent to the region. READ MORE

The United States is preparing for potential conflict with Russia by reinforcing Europe’s northern front and integrating NATO allies

The AI news readers this morning said “The United States is preparing for potential conflict with Russia by reinforcing Europe’s northern front and integrating allies, especially new NATO members Finland and Sweden. This includes military exercises with U.S., U.K., Nordic, and Baltic troops, including live-fire drills and airborne jumps in Norway. The move aims to deter Russian aggression and strengthen alliances in a strategically important region.” That’s the memo.

Donald Trump has always been in over his head in dealing with Putin, he is just no match for the wily dictator and former KGB agent who desires to rebuild the old Soviet Empire. As a result, it has lead to a string of embarrassing episodes where we see Trump dealing in good faith as Putin breaks his promises as fast as he makes them. We have told you from the beginning, Putin does not want war with Ukraine, he is using Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to lure NATO into World War 3. Keep that in mind as you watch events unfold over the next few weeks and it will all make sense.

Russia declares ‘Trump’s peace deal is dead’ as Kremlin threatens to seize all of Ukraine

FROM THE EXPRESS UK: The Russian press had declared Donald Trump’s peace deal is “dying a slow death” as a key ally of Vladimir Putin mocked Western ceasefire plans by posting a map showing almost all of Ukraine occupied by Kremlin forces. The Moscow-based daily newspaper Moskovskij Komsomolets ran an editorial on current ceasefire negotiations, commenting that it believed the President’s “energy charge” had “gone flat” and that it would soon become “obvious” even to Mr Trump that any deal was in its “death throes”.

The bleak assessment was reported by the BBC’s Russia Editor Steve Rosenberg during his regular dispatch covering the nation’s headlines. He added that the piece in the Moskovskij Komsomolets said: “The Trump factor was significant and strong enough to get Moscow and Kyiv to the negotiating table, but judging by the current picture, it feels like Trump’s peace plan is dying a slow, but necessarily painful death.

Speaking to reporters in New Jersey over the weekend, President Trump said of Putin: “I’ve known him a long time, always gotten along with him, but he’s sending rockets into cities and killing people, and I don’t like it at all.”

On Sunday, the president posted on the Truth Social platform that he believed his Russian counterpart had “gone absolutely crazy.”

He added: “I’ve always said that he wants all of Ukraine, not just a piece of it, and maybe that’s proving to be right, but if he does, it will lead to the downfall of Russia!” READ MORE

Russia escalates assault on Ukraine with massive drone attacks on cities

In the past week, 30 Ukrainians have died and more than 163 others injured as Russia escalated its bombing campaign amid U.S. efforts to end the war. It prompted President Trump to lash out at not only Russian President Putin, but also Ukrainian President Zelenskyy.
