Not only was Catherine the Great a great friend of the American Founding Fathers, she also established all of the major cities on the Ukrainian coastline, including Odessa and Mariupol. They called it “New Russia.”
Under Catherine, Russia was also was the first European power to colonize Alaska. A century later, Russia would sell Alaska to America in order to avoid it falling into the hands of the British.
Catherine is included in the list of “enlightened despots,” as Russia experienced a golden age during her 34-year reign. Like Vladimir Putin, Catherine greatly admired Peter the Great— the grandfather to her husband, Peter III, whom Catherine overthrew to claim power. (Peter III was born and raised in Germany, which made him an outsider in the eyes of Russians, who didn’t trust Prussia.)
Both Peter the Great and Catherine the Great were none for modernizing Russia by imbuing it with Western Culture, something Vladimir Putin has sought to do by rejecting modernity and restoring the traditional values.

The Bolsheviks never faded out or ceased to exist. They merely began calling themselves “Republicans.”

What did Venezuela “steal”?
Oh, nothing. Shocker.
GPT
“Short answer: none. Venezuela did not “steal U.S. oil fields” in the literal sense of seizing U.S. sovereign territory or U.S.-owned fields on U.S. land.
What that language usually refers to is nationalization / expropriation of U.S.-owned oil assets inside Venezuela, mainly under Hugo Chávez (2001–2010) and later Maduro.
Here’s the clean breakdown.
⸻
What actually happened
1. Nationalization of foreign oil operations (not U.S. land)
Venezuela asserted state control over oil resources within its own borders, forcing foreign companies to:
• accept minority stakes, or
• exit the country.
This is expropriation, not territorial theft.”

They are spiraling and now lashing out at their own audience, accusing them of being traitors unless they hate Russia.

Mark Levin reposted this yesterday, which effectively casts President Trump as a traitor because of his relationship with Qatar. (Check out Levin’s feed, he regularly insinuates that Trump is a traitor to Israel.)
Meanwhile, the Diaspora is crashing out and Israel has become a pariah state with no sign of stopping its warmongering.

MIT Professor Nuno Loureiro Shot After Major Fusion Research Breakthroughs.
Dr. Nuno Loureiro was one of the most important voices in nuclear fusion research.
Three Things About His Research:
#1 The Work: Focused on creating a virtually limitless, clean energy source on Earth.
No carbon. No meltdown risk. No long-term radioactive waste.
The holy grail of energy.
#2 What His Death Means: Without people like Loureiro, there’s no roadmap to a working fusion power plant.
He advised global projects, including work funded by the U.S. Department of Energy.
His fingerprints are on the future of power.
MOSSAD FINGERPRINTS ALL OVER IT

ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt labels X a "cesspool" and says that "holding all Jews responsible for policies you don't like of the Jewish state" is "wrong," "just like you can't hold Chinese-Americans responsible for what Beijing is doing."
(Greenblatt regularly says that Zionism is inextricably linked with Judaism and anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism because "every Jewish person is a Zionist.")
