Loading ...ORANGE MAN FLEECES THE EURO PEONS
JEFF CHILDERS HAS THE GOODIES ON THE BIGGEST TRADE HEIST IN WORLD HISTORY
The EU has been permanently diminished. The EU was supposed to be the last major defender of the globalist “rules-based order.” That myth is now bleeding out somewhere around Turnberry’s fourth hole. Europe thought it wore NATO Armor. But Trump just called them to heel, and everybody knows it. Europe can no longer be seen as a viable competitor to the US; it’s been exposed as a client state.
MEANWHILE
Ukraine just got a lot more unaffordable for Europe. Just last week, Trump told them outright: you want to buy weapons for Ukraine? Buy them yourselves. And now, after yesterday’s handshake at Turnberry, they’re suddenly on the hook to the U.S. for $1.35 trillion in energy purchases and investment commitments. That money’s not coming from Brussels’ magic beans fund. It’s coming out of real budgets. Which means every euro spent propping up Ukraine must now compete with the cost of staying on America’s good side.
AND FURTHERMORE
Globalism just suffered what could be its mortal blow. The European Union is the technocratic flagship of the globalist order. It was the shining example, built to transcend nationalism, to outlast politics, to bind economies into a ‘rules-based’ utopia. Instead, it just struck a bilateral, asymmetrical, no-frills deal —no WTO framework, no UN blessing, no OECD oversight. It broke ranks and cut a check.
So what becomes of globalism now? If national leaders can meet together on the weekend and hammer out global trade deals in a single afternoon over haggis, for what purpose do we even need organizations like the WTO, IMF, and the World Bank? They are shriveling on the vine, like a dying grape orchard in a time-lapse video.
Finally, note the most delicious irony of all. Ursula von der Leyen and her pompous team of elite European functionaries were outmaneuvered, outpaced, and outplayed by a man they’ve long framed as an orange-colored buffoon. They showed up in their tailored, bespoke suits holding their neatly typed policy briefs, but by the end of the day, they were shuffling out of Turnberry like chastened Oompa Loompas who just got scolded by Willy Wonka for touching the blueberry

The pain is JUST starting for Europe – they haven’t seen anything yet!
couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of fucktards….including most of the peons…they are weak dipshits for the most part…getting what the asked for
When I watch this footage between VdL and Trump, it reminds me very much of those scenes in Nature when the predator decides to play with a seemingly clueless pray out of curiosity and just for fun.

If anything, Putin was way too generous to the EU. Cheap energy, German speeches, personal ties… All a waste, and the very reason they loathe Russia.
EUrocrats are masochist freaks who beg to be spat on, slapped around, and shat on. This is the only language they understand.

If Europeans were paying attention (or being told the truth), they should be beyond appalled by this “deal”
It’s nothing more than one of the most expensive imperial tributes in history. Just a massive one-way transfer of wealth with no reciprocal benefits.
The “deal” is:
– The EU now gets charged 15% tariffs on its exports to the US when they commit to charging zero tariffs on US imports in the EU
– The EU agrees to invest $600 billion in the US, for no other obvious reason than pleasing “daddy”
– The EU will “purchase hundreds of billions of dollars of American military equipment”
– The EU commits to buying 750 billion dollars worth of very expensive US LNG, specifically $250 billion for each of the next 3 years
In exchange for all these concessions and extraction of their wealth they get… nothing. I’m not even exaggerating, that IS the deal: the EU gets nothing.
This does not even remotely ressemble the type of agreements made by two equal sovereign powers. It rather looks like the type of unequal treaties that colonial powers used to impose in the 19th century – except this time, Europe is on the receiving end.
More worryingly, this sets a dynamic and a precedent: what do you think happens next from here? In the 19th century, were colonial powers content with their first unequal treaty? Of course not – one of the key rules of geopolitics is that weakness only encourages further exploitation.
Again, this is Europe’s century of humiliation.

The price of turning Russophobia into the basis of all EU policy while relying on the United States to shield them from the inevitable consequences of that policy. The Europeans have maneuvered themselves into a totally subordinate relationship with the United States.
The Armchair Warlord @ArmchairW
Below is the list offered by Medvedev on what the ‘deal’ with the European Union actually represents:
1) totally humiliating for the Europeans as it only serves the United States by leaving the European market unprotected and zeroing out tariffs on US goods;
2) creates huge additional costs for industries and agriculture in many EU countries stemming from the need to pay for expensive US energy; and…
3) diverts a massive investment flow from Europe to the US, Medvedev specified.
But ultimately, Medvedev wrote, “the deal is clearly aimed against Russia, as it bans Russian oil and gas purchases. However, while for Trump, it is largely about business, for the mad old wench Europe, it is part of its neo-Nazi ideas, which is harmful to the well-being of its own citizens.”
