We are following the fate of the American idea of a 30-day truce for Ukraine. On March 11 in Jeddah, US representatives managed to wring consent from Zelensky’s envoys under pressure. On March 13, Washington’s special representative Steven Witkoff discussed the Russian position, later made public by President Vladimir Putin. This position has become a […]

What exactly is going on? Who is teaching whom? Same idiotic costumes, same rude behavior, same self-righteousness bordering on Chutzpah. Why all these antics during Trump’s address? Yes, Trump is prone to some obnoxious mannerisms. Fine. He obviously has more than that if he came to White House second time around. What exactly is he […]

With this “good news” US President Donald Trump began his 100-minute speech, which was listened to by both houses of Congress and the Supreme Court justices. The Republican part of the hall applauded standing. The Democrats whistled, booed and raised protest signs. The most zealous Democrat, who interrupted Trump and waved his cane at him, […]

This is what the US position looks like under Trump, which has now – thanks to the developer Zelensky – fully manifested itself. When the dust settled in the American White House after the touring performance of Zelensky’s troupe, when the wave of anger, gloating and “pathos of office” subsided in the world capitals, when […]

Kash Patel was sworn in as the ninth FBI director in Washington, D.C., in the presence of his parents and girlfriend. Kashyap Pramod Vinod Patel, 45, who barely made it through his Senate hearings, is tasked with Donald Trump’s most difficult and dangerous job: exposing and cleaning up the secret network of the “deep state.” […]

A few days ago, the influential American newspaper The Wall Street Journal published an interesting column by its former editor-in-chief Gerard Baker, “The Strategy and Pitfalls of Trump’s New World Order.” In full accordance with the joke about how to teach geography to lazy schoolchildren (“stun — intrigue — explain”), Baker begins with a backhand […]

Friends, If you are experiencing rage and despair about what is happening in America and the world right now because of the Trump-Vance-Musk regime, you are hardly alone. A groundswell of opposition is growing — not as loud and boisterous as the resistance to Tump 1.0, but just as, if not more, committed to ending the […]

Perestroika is Coming to Town. I Mean Washington Town. Of course, the legacy of Gorbachev is complex. For many he was a hero, for many — a traitor. He did what was necessary! — No! He destroyed the best country on earth. I didn’t live in Russia during perestroika, but I know it was incredibly […]

Of course, I am not a historian of Trump impeachment proceedings, but from what I remember, they were mostly about the so-called “Ukraine-gate.” That is, Trump knew that Zelensky had plenty of dirt on Biden and his coke-head son. So he told Zelensky to give him some goods before he released another billion dollar packet […]

Friends, I want to talk today about the media’s coverage of the Trump-Vance-Musk coup. I’m not referring to coverage by the bonkers right-wing media of Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News and its imitators. I’m referring to the U.S. mainstream media — The New York Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, The Atlantic, The New […]
