Please read..by the way before you read this..Did you know Zelensky met with Democrats 1 hour before he met President Trump and Vice President Vance in the Oval office? It amazes me how simple so many people think of the world. Black or white. My way or hell. It’s scary how so many are ignorant of the facts. Let’s see if we can untangle what happened… Ukraine’s Zelensky was to come to the WH and sign a rare earth minerals treaty, splitting the profits between the two country’s 50/50. The treaty would help reimburse the US having given Ukraine $350 billion during the Biden administration, to include long range weapon systems, a violation of NATO treaties with Russia. With the agreement, US companies would flood Ukraine’s eastern regions where the minerals are located, and where the war is ongoing. Ongoing mining operations would cool war drums and uncouple both Zelensky and Putin. Trump would therefore have a strong negotiation position when he turns to Putin to end the war. With US interests in these regions, Putin would have to leave much of it for the protection of Americans, thus creating a safety zone for Ukrainians and Americans mining there. This is the same concept of the “military troop trip line.” A concept employed with US troops around the world since WWII. Even if Putin dragged his feet in agreeing to a long term peace, Americans swarming these areas would de facto create peace zones. Trump has other cards to use with Putin, but trying not to use force against his intransigence forces. Trump, Rubio and others have explained to Zelensky what the strategy was and how it would lock-in long term peace. But today, Zelensky, having been familiar to the WH simply signing check after check, thought he could bluster a security agreement into the planned deal. This sudden change upset the strategy by allowing American miners to flood the Ukrainian regions with giving Putin no legitimate option; as America wasn’t sending troops or weapon systems, but under the cover of getting repaid what was given already, Ukraine would have a start at rebuilding. A Trump peace agreement would come when all the chess pieces were properly placed on the board. Impetuously with a healthy dose of ego and out of his league… Zelensky insulted the US for demanding the whole enchilada, or nothing! This was the same tact Palestinian Leader Yasser Arafat took when invited to negotiate peace with Clinton, and thumbing down whatever assurances the US president offered. This was the strategic plan to make whole US taxpayers, Ukrainian civilians and soldiers on both sides, and acquire the rare minerals to break China’s stranglehold on them around the world. The sad thing is, Zelensky will be the sole loser as his country reads the tea leaves. They could either turn to the fickle and feckless European leaders who haven’t spent any money on their own forces, NATO commitments and will now need to replace American money to pay for the Zelensky war machine… and having to buy that weaponry from either Israel or the United States as they have to use and maintain those US weapon systems already given by Biden. But the big loser will be the Ukrainian people. Besides their country trashed… there are not enough males of all ages to fight on, as Russia imports North Korean soldiers by the thousands. And, since the EU will practically be declaring war on Russia, violating NATO treaties… Russia will cut off all petroleum and natural gas and shut down Europes power system. Europe is already scrambling to replace closed nuclear reactions and disastrous renewable energy sources. Putin will have the upper hand by then and will leave things to a nuclear standoff… or WWIII. Wake up people, this is not rocket science!

What a disgrace.

What a disgrace.

Regarding Shenna Bellows:

The Maine Republican Party would like to point out something Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows stated recently to “Maine Public.”

"We are the ones who need to stand up for justice. We are the people who have the power. We are the ones who need to resist executive overreach. We are the ones who know we need to stand strong to resist fascism," Bellows said.

Bellows knows something about fascism! She attempted to use her government powers to remove a primary candidate running for President of the United States in Maine only to be smacked down by the US Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court reminded her that one is innocent until proven guilty and that she did not have the power to override the law AND the people of her state.

Bellows was appointed Maine’s Secretary of State by the Maine Legislature.

This is a position where she is expected to represent all the citizens of Maine, not just her fellow left wing ultra-liberal democrats. President Trump received 45.5% of the vote in Maine in the 2024 presidential election and 77 million votes nationwide. Bellows’ insulting and partisan comments are also directed at the nearly 400,000 Mainers who voted for President Trump.

President Trump is utilizing appointees to ferret out waste, mismanagement and likely fraud, in the federal bureaucracy whereas the Maine Legislature appointed Bellows to follow the Democrat Party line.

Trump recognizes that every dollar wasted, stolen, misspent or misplaced must come from the American taxpayers – Shenna Bellows seems deeply disturbed that this waste, fraud and abuse is being uncovered.

As we see daily news of how much of our hard-earned federal income tax money has been lost, stolen, and wasted, we need to let our elected representatives in Augusta know that by complaining about DOGE, they are openly proclaiming that they would prefer the waste, fraud and abuse of taxpayers continue than to expose and stop it.

Whose side are they on?

Shenna Bellows needs to stop the name calling because if she plans to run for future office here in 2026, there are about 400,00 voters here with long memories and many thousands more who support ending waste, fraud and abuse in our federal government!
