President Trump's historic win

Hi to all,

We, along with millions of others, have received the news of Donald Trump's becoming the 47th. President-elect of the United States with great pleasure and a huge sense of relief. And along with Trump, comes a very competent younger team. This includes the Vice President elect, J.D. Vance, Tulsi Gabbard - a Lt. Colonel in the US Army Reserve as well as having been a Democrat Congresswoman from Hawaii. She is now a member of the Republican Party. Then there is Vivek Ramaswamy, a former Republican presidential contender, R.F. Kennedy Jnr., a son of R.F. Kennedy who was assassinated in 1968. He is an Independent and a crusader for public health, including the banning of mRNA vaccines which have not been adequately tested. And Elon Musk of Tesla and Space X fame.  

In addition the Republicans have increased their majority in the House as well as gaining an outright majority in the Senate. All of this will absolutely enable the Trump Administration to have a real prospect of dealing with America's ills that have been deliberately created by the criminal Democrat Administration - not to mention the CIA with at least 80 attempts at interference in other countries' affairs since 1944 and many times with catastrophic consequences.

These issues include illegal immigration and associated drug running along with child trafficking. The US has become the world's largest consumer of children for sex trafficking and underage labour. Right now, over 300,000 children are "missing". Hardly anything to be proud of.

Then there is the US Federal debt, now approaching 36 Trillion US dollars. The annual interest bill on this staggering amount is now over one trillion dollars per annum, and rising. That's more than the entire defense budget. It can never be repaid without a drastic overhaul of the US monetary system, but we have no idea what form that might take. If the US dollar was to lose its status as the World Reserve Currency, this debt level would no longer be sustainable and the American economy would implode with catastrophic world-wide results.

With the advent of BRICS as a direct result of 80 years of US weaponisation of the US dollar, there is a real chance that this scenario could come to pass. BRICS is an acronym for Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa and there are many more countries either joined, or waiting to join. BRICS is an alternative method of circumventing the US dollar to facilitate international trade among members, together with offering an alternative method to SWIFT for international payments in currencies alternative to the US dollar. 

Russia has no love for the US with all the deception and the lies being told over many years by the US concerning all the Cold War years of hostile relations with Russia (formerly the USSR), and over the Ukraine question and NATO expansion on Russia's border. This is the direct reason that Russia finally invaded Ukraine in February 2022. The Ukraine War is now without question emphatically won by Russia and negotiation is the only way forward after the slaughter that has occurred. And in their dying last gasp the criminal Democrats in Washington are not only trying to encourage NATO into more war with Russia (which they absolutely cannot win), but also promoting war with China in the western Pacific. There has even been talk of Australia and New Zealand being dragged into that proposed lunatic conflict. Let's hope that Trump is able to slap the Democrats down hard even before he is sworn in as President, because these scenarios must absolutely not be allowed to develop.

All of this war-mongering is giving huge impetus to the BRICS movement which, after their recent summit in Kazan, Russia, is growing perceptibly.

Tellingly, President Putin has refused to congratulate President Trump until he sees tangible evidence that Trump is true to his word to end the dangerous conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine. We are sure that the congratulations will then be forthcoming!   

Trump's election seems like divine intervention in the affairs of the world and its human inhabitants. We are not religiously inclined, but we cannot shake the feeling. Anyway, the world has been saved - and not just by Trump's election. President Putin has always exercised great restraint in his invasion of Ukraine - no doubt to avoid too much antagonism with NATO and the US, and to avoid as many civilian casualties as possible.

However, unless Trump can continue to assure Putin of his good faith, we fear that things could escalate uncontrollably.

But for now we have hope..............

And finally - we have just listened to Leighton Smith's latest podcast number 264 which contains the best analysis that you are ever likely to hear of Trump's amazing and totally deserved win and the current state of America with justifiable hope for the future.

Cheers and lotsaluv from us in El Retiro, Colombia............
