On the tail end of Trump’s trade visits to Malaysia, Japan and South Korea, Trump agreed to a last minute meeting with China’s Xi Jinping despite having said “we have nothing to discuss” after China threw a monkey-wrench into the world’s high-end manufacturing by restricting several key rare earth metals. Despite this aggressive trade-war action, Trump can’t seem to resist believing that he is capable of turning everything around by having a “wonderful relationship” with every world leader, including those who are dictators, corrupt and even mortal enemies of the nation. His staff even reached out to dictator Kim Jong Un of N. Korea for a meeting on NK’s nuclear weapons program, but were rebuffed. Otherwise, we probably would have seen another of Trump’s false claims of a “successful meeting.” South Korea isn’t an enemy but even its president knew how to gain favorable trade deals with Trump by awarding him their medal of honor and gifting him a golden crown—which, given the “No Kings” protests in the US, is the last thing Trump should have accepted. As I pointed out last week, all of the world’s leaders now know that Trump can be influenced if they apply enough praise and flattery. An even greater enticement to Trump seems to be the lure of making “great deals” with world leaders whose stature is viewed by parts of the world as even more formidable than Trump himself, like Xi and Putin.

In a recent memo, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has pushed back against what he calls a “doomsday outlook” on climate change, signaling a shift in his views on the risks posed by a warming planet. Despite the move, he remains an extremist on a variety of issues, including his belief that we need a new “god” for humans to worship in the age of AI.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) has fired a warning shot across the bow of globalist kingpin Bill Gates, demanding answers from the Gates Foundation over its shady funneling of millions to arms of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Grassley’s October 27, 2025, letter to Gates Foundation CEO Mark Suzman accuses the nonprofit of violating IRS rules by pouring cash into CCP-linked entities, potentially jeopardizing its tax-exempt status under 501(c)(3). “According to reports, in 2023, the Gates Foundation ‘directed roughly $11.7 million into various arms of China’s communist-controlled government, as well as $2 million to a corporation the Department of Defense (DOD) determined works with the Chinese military,'” Grassley wrote,

I’ve been investigating and writing about Study 329 for almost twenty years as it stands out as one of the best documented case studies of corruption in modern biomedicine. Unfortunately, a piece I wrote for a DC nonprofit documenting much of this evidence disappeared in the last year as the publishing platform shut down. So I’m republishing that 2011 piece here so that it stays available for readers searching on Google.

For the majority of the war Pokrovsk has acted as the logistical hub and rear operations base for Ukraine's eastern defensive lines. It sits astride both a key railroad juncture and the highway to Ukraine’s fourth-largest metro, Dnipro. The city's defensive positions are a final obstacle to Russia's access to most of the region. If Pokrovsk falls Russian forces will be able to more easily flank entrenched troops in the north and south of the country.
