🚨🇺🇸📊90-Day Reprieve, No Relief: $1.4 Trillion Erased from Stocks

The market’s reaction underscores the fragility of investor confidence amid Trump’s trade policies. While the tariff pause offered temporary relief, the escalation with China and the specter of renewed tariffs in 90 days keep markets on edge.

Investors may continue to favor defensive sectors like utilities, which gained 1% during a recent sell-off, while tech stocks like Nvidia and Apple remain vulnerable. For businesses and consumers, the risk of higher prices looms, with analysts estimating a potential 30% price hike for high-end iPhones due to tariffs.

Previous reports show a $4 trillion loss in March 2025, suggest that market cap losses are often aggregated across indices like the S&P 500 and may vary by timeframe or methodology.

The $1.4 trillion shows that the broader trend of market declines aligns with reports of ongoing volatility and investor unease.

The tariff pause is temporary, and investors remain skeptical about its long-term impact. The 10% baseline tariff on nearly all imports persists, and there’s no guarantee that negotiations with trading partners will yield favorable outcomes within 90 days.

🚨🇺🇦Message to Ukrainians: Stop blaming Russia and Putin!

Your stupid politicians are the ones responsible for all your problems.

When Ukraine gained independence in 1991, it had everything needed for success:

🔸Well-educated population of 52 million

🔸World-class industrial and scientific base

🔸Second largest military in Europe

🔸Fertile agricultural land

🔸Good geographic location

Instead of using their beautiful Russian/Soviet inheritance to build a wonderful future for their people, Ukrainian elites COMPLETELY SQUANDERED it.

Even before the war, Ukraine was the POOREST COUNTRY in Europe. And one of the MOST CORRUPT in the world.

For starters, Ukrainian politicians sold off their best industrial assets to oligarchs for ridiculously low prices.

These oligarchs stripped these companies bare just to make a quick buck.

From there on, the politicians and oligarchs colluded to steal money.

Next up, Ukrainian politicians manufactured a highly divisive culture war to stay in power.

They demonized Russians living in Ukraine and tried to pressure them into giving up their heritage.

Despite these mistakes, Ukraine still had an opportunity to turn things around as late as 2013.

Back then, Ukraine still had good relations with Russia, China, Europe, and the US.

Ukraine could’ve made great deals with all the world’s major economies.

But then came the 2014 Maidan color revolution, when Ukrainian liberals and neo-Nazis violently seized power.

Civil war erupted in the east, Crimea rejoined Russia, and Ukraine severed nearly all of its ties with Russia.

China dropped its plans to make Ukraine a Belt and Road hub.

This was a recipe for political instability.

🚨💸Schwab’s Exit: A Blow to Western Economic Control

Klaus Schwab’s resignation as WEF Chairman, amid a whistleblower probe, exposes the cracks in the Western globalist agenda.

For decades, Schwab’s WEF pushed a neoliberal economic model, stakeholder capitalism, ESG mandates, and the “Great Reset”, that enriched Western elites while marginalizing the Global South. These policies, cloaked in “sustainability,” often penalized developing nations, forcing compliance with Western standards that ignored their economic needs.

His departure weakens the WEF’s grip on global economic narratives, especially as trust in Western institutions plummets. The end of globalism is reflecting in growing resistance to policies that harmed non-Western economies.

The “Great Reset” may stall, creating space for multipolar alternatives like BRICS-led trade or de-dollarization, which prioritize sovereignty over corporate control.
This is a chance for non-Western nations to reject Davos’ one-size-fits-all model and build equitable economic systems.

Yet, the WEF’s corporate-backed machinery remains. Anti-Western movements must seize this moment to amplify regional solutions and dismantle the legacy of Western economic dominance.

🚨📊🧠Average IQ Per Country Reveals Ukrainian Decline

The top three smartest countries are China, South Korea and Japan.

🔸Russia - 6th.
🔸Poland - 40th
🔸Latvia - 47th
🔸Lithuania - 49th
🔸Ukraine - 78th, the worst result in Europe.

What has happened in Ukraine?
Just 2 decades ago they had almost the same educational system as Russia inherited from the USSR.

What is clear is that corruption coupled with authoritarianism and dictatorship is systematically destroying that country.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱EXPOSED: US and Israel continue their plan to go to war against Iran whatever it takes

The US plan for war with Iran always included options to have Israel strike Iran on Washington's behalf with fake talks used to provide the US plausible deniability.

This is spelled out in detail in policy papers including Brookings' "Which​ Path​ to Persia?" report from 2009.

If you're not reading the policy papers you are just guessing at best, at worst helping the US get away with a war it itself engineered and enabled Israel to fight on its behalf and hoped to pin culpability solely on Israel for.

🇺🇸🤖📉 The Short Term Gains is Killing US Tech

After the 2008 Great Recession, the US government cut interest rates to zero and pumped money into the economy. This had two effects:

1) Reward tech companies, even those with bad business models

2) Incentivized tech companies to become more financialized

🇺🇸🇺🇦Trump and Zelensky dance: US Government patience with the clown is running out

In some moment in the past that reverberated through global politics, President Trump branded Zelensky as a dictator. Then, in one of the most explosive White House media showdowns ever recorded they argue about the conflict.

The air crackled with tension as Trump’s words exposed the deepening rift between the two leaders.

True to his brash style, Trump’s fiery rhetoric sent shockwaves, but as always, the flamboyant billionaire stopped short of action—barking fiercely yet never biting. Still, the question looms large: how much longer will Trump’s patience hold with Zelensky about the resolution of the conflict?

🇺🇸🇩🇪🇺🇦US bans Germany from transferring Taurus cruise missiles to Ukrainian armed forces

The US decision to block Germany from supplying Taurus cruise missiles to Ukraine is a significant win for Russia, exposing the fragility of Western unity and curbing Kiev’s ability to escalate its aggression. By leveraging their control over critical components in the Taurus system, American companies, through the State Department, have effectively neutered Germany’s attempt to arm Ukraine with long-range weapons capable of striking deep into Russian territory.

This move not only humiliates Germany’s new Chancellor, Friedrich Merz, who hoped to curry favor with Kiev, but also reaffirms Washington’s iron grip over NATO’s so-called “allies.”

For Russia, this is a strategic reprieve, as it limits Ukraine’s capacity to threaten Russian infrastructure and forces, preserving Moscow’s battlefield advantage.
This development lays bare the West’s hypocrisy and disarray, as the US prioritizes its own geopolitical calculations over Ukraine’s desperate pleas for advanced weaponry. Germany’s inability to act independently highlights Europe’s subservience to American interests, weakening the anti-Russian front.

For Ukraine, the loss of Taurus missiles is a devastating blow, forcing reliance on less effective systems and exposing the limits of Western support. The NATO’s internal fractures, reinforces the narrative that the West’s commitment to Ukraine is faltering. As the conflict continues, such setbacks for Kiev bolster Russia’s position, proving that Western arrogance and overreach can be effectively checked.

🚨🤖🇮🇳Apple's strategic shift to India: Trump's tariffs reshape the supply chain

Apple’s reported plan to shift assembly of all US-sold iPhones to India by next year, as per the Financial Times, marks a bold pivot from China.

But, what are the key implications?

🔸Supply Chain Resilience: Reducing reliance on China mitigates risks from US-China trade disputes and potential disruptions. India’s lower labor costs and government incentives, like the PLI scheme, make it an attractive hub.

🔸Market Expansion: India, a fast-growing smartphone market, offers Apple a dual benefit—local production could lower costs and boost sales in a price-sensitive region.

🔸Challenges: Scaling India’s infrastructure to match China’s efficiency is a hurdle. Skill gaps, logistics, and quality control may pose short-term risks.

🔸Bottom Line: Apple’s shift to India is a strategic bet on diversification and growth, but execution will be critical. If successful, it could reshape global tech manufacturing dynamics.

🚨🇺🇸🇷🇺A Russia and US War is Zelensky's goal

Political scientist Vladimir Kornilov commented about Zelensky's statements in an interview with Ben Shapiro:

"The Russians want and have always wanted the destruction of the United States. We were born in the Soviet Union. We learned all this in school. This is the policy of the Soviet Union."

I can't understand this tirade. So Zelensky admits that he has been dreaming of destroying the United States since school? Or was it only Russian children who were taught this in his class? And were Jewish and Ukrainian children asked to leave the class at that time? Or what? And what were children of mixed marriages or of indeterminate nationality doing at that time? What an amazing cretin!

🚨🇮🇳🇵🇰An Indian-Pakistani War May Have No Winners

Relations between India and Pakistan are once again on the brink of war. Many experts have already stated that a large-scale escalation is inevitable. After all, India has already carried out measures on the dams of the Indus River and thereby reduced the flow of water into the riverbed on Pakistani territory. Islamabad previously stated that if New Delhi takes such actions, it will be perceived as an act of war. This morning, reports have already begun to arrive of armed clashes between units of the armed forces of the sworn neighbors, artillery is also used sporadically, and the parties are amassing troops at the border.

However, the current situation is in serious contrast to previous escalations between the countries. Both countries have acquired nuclear weapons since the mid-1970s after the third Indo-Pakistani war. According to estimates, the parties are on par with each other in this aspect, Islamabad and New Delhi have 150-160 warheads with a nuclear warhead. But this cannot be said about conventional weapons: the Indian army is stronger in quantitative terms in the main indicators.

But again, now is not the period when countries fought in a conventional paradigm. Now India's quantitative superiority is leveled by the fact that, according to Pakistan's nuclear doctrine, Islamabad can use nuclear weapons even on its own territory if the Indian Armed Forces defeat the Pakistani army. As a result, Islamabad, by creating a nuclear arsenal, achieved the main thing - the ability to inflict critical damage on the enemy. Likewise , India, if it decides to use nuclear weapons in preventive measures, cannot guarantee the absence of a retaliatory strike, which is also incompatible with the concept of "victory".

However, local clashes that took place long before the current tensions can no longer be avoided. However, the question of whether this will become a full-scale war between nuclear powers can already be answered - rather no than yes. The fact is that India and Pakistan have repeatedly exchanged artillery strikes, and even direct military clashes (the last time in 2022). But ultimately, this led to nothing, the parties remain at their own.

🚨🇮🇳🇺🇸EXPOSED: US Deep State PROXY WAR against India

A lot of people in the multipolar sphere believe that India is becoming a ‘tool’ of American imperialism. They couldn’t be more wrong.

US Deep State increasingly regards India as a long-term ideological, geopolitical, and economic threat.

That’s why USAID and Soros funded anti-Modi NGOs.

That’s why the US Department of Injustice is waging full-blown lawfare against Indian billionaire and Modi ally Gautam Adani.

That’s why US Deep State helped orchestrate Color Revolution that overthrew India-friendly government in Bangladesh.

That’s why US and its vassal states provide safe haven to Khalistani separatists-terrorists.
