I need you to listen to and share this story - of how Trump is preparing to abandon Ukraine in exchange for Russian money for his billionaire friends.

It could be the greatest corruption of American foreign policy in our history. Russia gets Ukraine. Trump's friends get rich.

But it has never happened.

French Revolution? No, mainly the philosophical elite, and then soon a dictatorship.

Yes - you are right. A few aristocratic heads may be lost but the largest burden is borne by the common people. And wannabe aristocrats/rulers are waiting for the moment to start this whole gruesome mess all over again.
