Zelensky decided to “put his foot down” in an amazing fit of pique … Zelensky may have the support of the USAID MSM but that doesn’t count much in Trump’s world. Considering he admits he lost half of the chunk of our largess to him, he is having second thoughts about giving the U.S. a chunk of his gravy boat in the form of his precious minerals.Trump lets him know that he is simply “A Dictator.”
Maybe its because Zelensky already cut his deal with our Wall Street boys and thinks he sure is not going to have to agree to any election that has him fired up.
Bunk here earlier called it:
Zelensky’s Opening Act at Davos -Courts JPMorgan, Bank of America, Bridgewater CEO’s
January 17, 2024 — bunkerville |
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy met some of the biggest names in global finance on Tuesday morning on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland. The Ukrainian leader spoke with JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon, Blackstone’s Steve Schwarzman and Bridgewater founder Ray Dalio among others.(Wander over to get the full grift.)
Then we have Ursula with some deep thoughts too:
“Ukrainians need predictable financing throughout 2024 and beyond,” European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen told World Economic Forum participants. “They need a sufficient and sustained supply of weapons to defend Ukraine and regain its rightful territory.”
As for President Zelensky, in addressing world leaders at the forum he emphasized that the West needs to help Ukraine achieve air superiority if his forces are to have a chance to emerge victorious against Russia.
Oh yeah Ursula? And who is going to pick up the tab?
U.S. Paying 68% Percent of NATO, Increased 6 Percent Since 2021

Why has the U.S. increased our spending 6 percent to NATO since 2021? What is Europe doing to protect itself? The joy ride is coming to an end for NATO.
Alarm Grows Over Weakened Militaries and Empty Arsenals in Europe
~ The Wall Street Journal, December 11, 2023
“The British military—the leading U.S. military ally and Europe’s biggest defense spender—has only around 150 deployable tanks and perhaps a dozen serviceable long-range artillery pieces. So bare was the cupboard that last year the British military considered sourcing multiple rocket launchers from museums to upgrade and donate to Ukraine….”
“France, the next biggest spender, has fewer than 90 heavy artillery units….”
“The German army only has enough ammunition for two days of intense fighting…..”
Yes, let’s let the U.S. boys carry the load.
Back to the fellow with the foot in his mouth or somewhere.
• Zelensky says Trump is living in Russian ‘disinformation space’ [more about that below}
• President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Ukraine today does not have many formats to guarantee security, such as NATO
• Who is waiting to replace Zelensky? [It’s Zaluzhny or Poroshenko, for now]
• No, Zelenskyy doesn’t have 4% approval as Trump claims; it’s over 50% [That’s NOT true.]
• France says it does not understand why Trump blames Ukraine for war.
• Zelensky Says Won’t ‘Sell’ Ukraine in US Resources Deal [He was the one who brought the issue into the negotiations].
• Zelensky Responds to Trump Calling for Elections in Ukraine [As tyrants do].
The Hill reported:
“’Unfortunately, President Trump, I have great respect for him as a leader of a nation that we have great respect for, the American people who always support us, unfortunately lives in this disinformation space’, Zelensky told reporters early Wednesday. […] Zelensky also pressed Trump and U.S. officials to ‘be more truthful’.”
But Zelensky must have forgotten who he was toying with: Trump is the true Harry Bolz. And so, a scorching response soon happened. Zelensky is left with his head spinning.
Here’s the complete text of Trump’s blistering response:
“Think of it, a modestly successful comedian, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, talked the United States of America into spending $350 Billion Dollars, to go into a War that couldn’t be won, that never had to start, but a War that he, without the U.S. and “TRUMP,” will never be able to settle.
The United States has spent $200 Billion Dollars more than Europe, and Europe’s money is guaranteed, while the United States will get nothing back. Why didn’t Sleepy Joe Biden demand Equalization, in that this War is far more important to Europe than it is to us — We have a big, beautiful Ocean as separation. On top of this, Zelenskyy admits that half of the money we sent him is “MISSING.”
He refuses to have Elections, is very low in Ukrainian Polls, and the only thing he was good at was playing Biden “like a fiddle.” A Dictator without Elections, Zelenskyy better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left.
In the meantime, we are successfully negotiating an end to the War with Russia, something all admit only “TRUMP,” and the Trump Administration, can do. Biden never tried, Europe has failed to bring Peace, and Zelenskyy probably wants to keep the “gravy train” going.
I love Ukraine, but Zelenskyy has done a terrible job, his Country is shattered, and MILLIONS have unnecessarily died – And so it continues…”
But the post isn’t done yet: Gateway Pundit:
Emboldened by the European outcry against the new peace negotiations between the US and Russia, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky turns his back on the US leader Donald J. Trump, insists that he will not recognize any US-Russia peace deal that he is not involved in, and is expecting European partners to step up in today’s conference and hand him a lifeline to continue the war.
At this point, he can justly be accused of wanting to burn his country to rule over the ashes.
Zelensky needs war and needs ‘martial law’ to avoid elections. With polls favoring General Valery Zaluzhny, exiled in London as ambassador, former president Poroshenko has just been sanctioned – the President without mandate is trying to neutralize all opposition.
With the outstanding title of ‘The Mad Kind of Kiev’ John Mac Ghlionn wrote a great piece for The Hill about the comedian-turned-president – a great read.
The best of the swamp.
