How does Moscow view Donald Trump at the end of 2025? One Russian paper today: “The US leader’s philosophy is closer to the values of Russia’s president, not the politicians of the Old World…he sees Europe as a liberal stronghold to be destroyed…” #ReadingRussia youtu.be/7EwZNk6KgHU

"Russian industry has entered a perfect storm" warns Russian paper.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at. A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth. HAIRCUTS. This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.

The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.

The President of the United States is a coward who is Putin's puppet. The Vice President is a coward who is Trump's puppet. What we just witnessed was a meeting in the Oval Office between two puppets and a hero. This administration is going to go down as an embarrassment to American history.
