TO BE FAIR, THEIR PRESENT SOCIETY IS 100% ORGANIZED AROUND AVOIDING THE TRUTH: Europe’s Problem With Trump Is That He Tells Them the Truth. Not every gripe that Europeans have with Donald Trump stems from his bluntness when he tells them the truth--Danish people aren't wrong when they say Trump is being rude to demand that they hand over Greenland to the US, even if Trump believes that the Danes can't defend the strategically-located territory. Still, the hatred for Trump has nothing to do with tariffs or bullying. European leaders hate him because he will tell them hard truths they desperately want to deny. German diplomats literally laughed when Trump warned them that they were too dependent on Russian gas, but after the invasion of Ukraine and the bombing of the Nord Stream pipeline (conducted by Ukraine with the assistance of the United States' Joe Biden!) they were not laughing. Early in his first term, Trump began pushing NATO countries to at least honor their treaty obligations to increase defense spending to the 2% of GDP minimum. This demand was beyond the pale. An outrage! It was Trump breaking a sacred trust, even if that sacred trust was being broken daily and had been for decades by the Europeans themselves. How could Trump point out, quite rudely, that Europe wasn't doing what it was both legally and morally obligated to do?! Sacre bleu! There is a lot of angst about Trump's lack of enthusiasm for continuing the war in Ukraine until all Ukrainians of fighting age are dead or wounded, but his pressure to have Russia and Ukraine come to the peace table has exposed for all the world to see that he is right that Europe is a paper tiger and contributes almost little, aside from bases, to NATO defense. The Ukraine war has been mainly funded by the United States, which also provided the logistics and intelligence that kept Ukraine in the fight. Aside from Ukraine, of course, which has contributed the most in blood and treasure. The Poles have contributed much, compared to their economic capability and the size of their military, but for the most part, European contributions to the war effort have been symbolic or tangential to the military fight. Without the US, the war would have been lost. In fact, without the weapons that DONALD TRUMP gave Ukraine in his first term--Obama had refused to provide weapons to the country--Kiev would likely have been taken in weeks. Now that Trump is refusing to put boots on the ground, a "coalition of the willing" in Europe is trying to scrape together a peacekeeping force to be based there once the fighting ceases. https://hotair.com/david-strom/2025/05/01/europes-problem-with-trump-is-that-he-tells-them-the-truth-n3802300

US Gov't Accountability in the EPA & FDA .

MAN, DID I EVER VOTE FOR THIS: EPA canceling nearly 800 environmental justice grants. In a filing that was entered last week but first reported by The Washington Post Tuesday, a high-ranking EPA employee states that the agency has already told 377 grantees that their awards were canceled. The agency plans to send cancellation notifications to an additional 404 — meaning a total of 781 grants are being canceled, said the filing, a declaration from Daniel Coogan, the EPA’s Deputy Assistant Administrator for Infrastructure and Extramural Resources. The grants are primarily related to programs that deal with environmental justice — that is, dealing with pollution in communities that face disproportionate impacts and have limited resources. This includes low-income and minority communities. The Trump administration has targeted environmental justice programs — firing 280 staffers and reassigning another 175 who worked on the issue, saying it’s part of a broader effort against diversity initiatives. https://thehill.com/policy/energy-environment/5273712-epa-canceling-nearly-800-environmental-justice-grants/ It’s all just slush funds and payouts for progressive groups. . -

Meanwhile. . . . . . . . . . . . . . in the real world. Congress Joins RFK’s Crusade Against Big Pharma by Robert McGreevy A bipartisan group of congressional lawmakers introduced a bill Monday to eliminate a tax deduction pharmaceutical companies receive for direct to consumer (DTC) advertising. The No Handouts for Drug Advertisements Act would remove a tax benefit that currently allows the pharmaceutical industry to write off advertising expenses related to advertising on television, radio, social media and other platforms, according to Republican North Carolina Rep. Greg Murphy’s press release. A group of four bipartisan lawmakers introduced the bill: Murphy, Republican Alaska Rep. Nick Begich, Democratic Minnesota Rep. Angie Craig and Democratic Michigan Rep. Hillary Scholten. https://dailycaller.com/2025/04/30/rfk-crusade-big-pharma-direct-consumer-advertising-congress-greg-murphy/ , -

Black Woman Coming Back to America After Finding Out Africa is Worse by Alec Johnson As you know, it’s very difficult to be a minority in the modern United States of America. The U.S. is widely known for being among the most hostile countries in the world for anyone who is not white, for gay people, for trans people, for religious minorities, and for all women. Except it’s not because that’s the opposite of the truth. It is breathtaking how American citizens who enjoy the highest standard of living and the most legal freedom in the world believe they are living in an oppressive authoritarian regime. And they really do seem to believe it. Modern feminists get dolled up in Handmaid’s Tale costumes to protest the “misogyny” of the U.S.. What’s the misogyny, where’s the hatred of women? Why, it’s in any law that restricts any woman from having an abortion at any time. Outlaw third trimester abortions? Misogyny. And for black people? It’s never been worse. Sixty-one years since the passage of the Civil Rights Act, and black people are held down harder and more cruelly than ever before. Sure, they have full legal enfranchisement, they’re picked for college admissions and granted professional jobs preferentially over more qualified white candidates, but someone actually arrested some black people for brawling in Waffle House. https://wokespy.com/black-woman-coming-back-to-america-after-finding-out-africa-is-worse/ -
https://www.foxnews.com/travel/haunting-slave-ships-found-off-coast-national-park-300-years-later-very-convincing HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE ? I thought White Americans 'invented' slavery. Archaeologists recently made a startling discovery: They found that two 18th-century shipwrecks off the coast of Central America were actually two Danish slave ships. The ships, named Fridericus Quartus and Christianus Quintus, are located in shallow waters off Costa Rica's Cahuita National Park. The 18th-century vessels were shipwrecked in 1710, according to the National Museum of Denmark. "Fridericus Quartus was set ablaze, while Christianus Quintus had its anchor rope cut, following which the ship was wrecked in the surf," the museum's press release noted. "Until now, it has not been clear exactly where the ships were lost."

PepsiCo to remove artificial ingredients from popular food items by end of 2025 Ashley J. DiMella Heeding the call to ban artificial ingredients by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., PepsiCo isn’t wasting any time getting started. Ramon Laguarta, PepsiCo Inc. chair and chief executive officer, said in an April 24 conference call that the company will reduce artificial ingredients and has already begun doing so, as Food Business News reported. “We’ve been leading the transformation of the industry now for a long time on sodium reduction, sugar reduction and better fats,” Laguarta said. “Sixty percent-plus of our (portfolio) today doesn’t have any artificial colors,” he said — and the company is “undergoing that transition.” Laguarta cited examples such as Lay’s and Tostitos https://nypost.com/2025/04/29/business/pepsico-to-remove-artificial-ingredients-from-popular-food-items-by-end-of-2025/ Thank you, RFKJ!! . -

Marco Rubio. . . . . Secretary of State
B-Man replied to B-Man's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
This is NUTS: Secretary Rubio just announced that he found DOZENS of files kept by Joe Biden's State Department that classified American citizens as "vectors of disinformation" — with the intention of censoring them. That's not all. Marco Rubio says that there's someone in President Trump's cabinet meeting RIGHT NOW that was being monitored. "There's at least one person at THIS TABLE TODAY who had a dossier in that building..." Joe Biden's administration was corrupt ALL THE WAY THROUGH! -
