➡ Trump’s negotiation of a mineral deal in Ukraine is a strategic move to prevent a Russian invasion, as it would put American lives at risk. This move is seen as a chess game where Trump is several steps ahead, using ambiguous language to keep his intentions unclear. Despite the controversy and potential risks, the deal is likely to go through, with Ukraine’s leader Zelensky willing to negotiate. This situation is complex, with potential economic benefits for the US, but also potential for escalating conflict.

➡ The text discusses concerns about potential market manipulation in the cryptocurrency sector, possibly influenced by tweets from Trump. It suggests that some people may be moving their investments from precious metals to cryptocurrencies due to these manipulations. The text also touches on political issues, including distrust towards American politicians and potential repercussions of their actions. Lastly, it mentions a review of the Cyber Truck, discussing its pros and cons for preparedness purposes.

World War 3 weekend recap. A lot has transpired in 48 hours. Holy SHTF. We have some breaking news. As of 18:00 Central Standard Time, March 2, 2025, it appears as though the Europeans are getting ready to deploy their entire repertoire of military capabilities against the Russian menace. A new Triple Entente is emerging in Europe comprised of the Brits, the French and ironically the Germans, who are getting ready to deploy 100 of their 600 strong Taurus missile arsenal to Ukraine. These are long range weapons with a 500 mile range heavy ordnance cruise missiles to be mounted on Soviet era Su 24 planes to ostensibly be used against Russian targets inside Russia, probably as far if not further than Moscow from the front.

This is a major development. The new Chancellor Merz is in the final stages of the formation of a new coalition government in Germany and once that is done, they’re going to start sending these Taurus missiles there. According to Forbes, we also have France who is going to be providing the second leg of the new Triple Entente in providing a nuclear umbrella. Macron doubled down in statements he made earlier in the week insisting that France is willing to extend its nuclear umbrella to the rest of Europe should this NATO alliance ever falter, which yours truly, I don’t think it will for a second.

The United States is not going to be relieving the Europeans of their vassalage, not anytime soon. Why would you leave a power vacuum open like that? Especially when the USD benefits from the suppression of the European reserve currency. But anyways, more on that later. We also have the UK Keir Starmer tripling down now in a press conference today on March 2, insisting that the UK is getting ready to put troops on the ground, that they are ready and willing to do this, along with what I presume is a no fly zone when they talk about putting planes in the air.

Okay, so they’re getting ready to put what I call, and this is trademark, you heard it here first, Canadian prepper Stormtroopers. Stormtroopers are coming to Ukraine. So you got the Triple Entente, you got Germany, France, the UK and it’s all going to be backstopped by the Poles who have the biggest army and they actually have an army and they actually have a sizable amount of tanks. Okay? The UK and their 16 Stormtroopers are likely not going to be able to do this alone. Now Zelinsky made some incredibly cheeky comments today when he said that don’t worry about U.S.

security guarantees. I will be your security guarantee. Which is likely why Europe is Getting ready to cook up a 500 billion dollar fund to ensure that Ukrainians will continue to be hauled off the street against their will to be thrown into the meat grinder. Everywhere around the world is now reinvigorated and galvanized towards the end of supporting Zelensky and his cause. I do believe that what we seen last Friday has completely and utterly backfire. Now, Donald Trump has also made a very cryptic tweet. And I don’t know how to make heads or tails of this. You guys let me know what you think about it.

I’ll read you the tweet in just a moment. But it essentially discloses his entire strategy. Okay, the entire strategy. And you can call this mixed messaging, strategic ambiguity, skullduggery, and whatever kind of machination terminology you want to deploy. But I tell you, this tweet was just strange because he’s speaking in the third person. He’s, he’s apparently disclosing the entire plan. And it’s just weird. And you know that crypto bloodbath that was happening last week? Well, apparently now it’s been turned on its head and it’s been turned into like a five star Jacuzzi instead of a bloodbath.

A lot of insider trading shenanigans going on. Trump was tweeting out about a crypto reserve and then a bitcoin reserve. And people are, are making bets at 50x leverage over the weekends and making hundreds of millions of dollars on this. I assume they have ties to Trump’s camp. And I don’t even think Trump is now the one who’s controlling his account because there’s a lot of sketchy shenanigans going on. I don’t know if it’s Donald Trump or whoever’s Donald J. Trump Jr. I should say, or Baron Trump who’s doing this, but somebody is rugging the planet right now.

So we’ll talk about that a little bit as well. First off, just to recap here, Keir Starmer insisting that today we are here to push forward a just and lasting peace in Ukraine, one that guarantees its sovereignty and security. This is a defining moment of Europe’s stability. The UK Is stepping up as we always have. We’re committed to 3 billion a year in military support through 2030. And I think they even signed some hundred year security guarantee or something like that with Ukraine. But it’s more than that. I said before, and I’ll say it again, we’re ready to put boots on the ground and planes in the air to defend a Ukrainian peace deal.

This isn’t a decision I take lightly. It’s about ensuring Putin doesn’t see this as a pause before he strikes again. While he’s striking right now, still to this day, we’re working with European partners and calling on the US to back this with security guarantees. We’re going to talk about Trump said about that today. You in just a moment. Essentially the EU led by the UK and this Triple Entente is not going to recognize agreements similar to the Minsk deals of the past. The UK will provide Ukraine with additional 2. 2 billion for military purchases, including missiles for air defense systems.

This is going to be on the basis of seized Russian assets. So this $2.6 billion loan is going to be repaid with revenues earned from seized Russian assets. They’ve committed 5,000 air defense missiles to be used against Russian drones. And Starmer announced a new meeting with Trump that is going to be taking place soon. I presume he’s going to try to mediate what happened over the weekend there with that acrimonious exchange between Zelensky and Trump in the Oval Office. Also, the UK is once again willing to send a military contingent to Ukraine to ensure the implementation of a peace agreement.

Agreement. Before I forget, we also had more threats from the blue haired menace against the life of Donald Trump over the weekend. Members of an elite Ukrainian airborne unit have issued direct vets against the life of Donald J. Trump. I told you that was going to happen. In fact, we’re seeing the reinvigoration of the movement around the world. Everybody rallying behind Zelensky, including Saturday Night Live, French President Emmanuel Macron. As I indicated when speaking to Portuguese television, Extended is willing to extend France’s nuclear deterrent as a nuclear umbrella for Europe should the NATO alliance falter. Given the threats from the US on potentially backing out of NATO now, I highly doubt this is ever going to happen.

Why would you leave a power vacuum like that in Europe? I don’t think the US will ever relinquish control. In fact, based on the message that I’m going to read you from Trump off Twitter, it appears as though this mixed messaging we basically, there’s no consistency in messaging anymore. You might as well just completely block out everything these guys are saying and just completely watch what they’re doing because everything Trump’s saying, all of these contradictory statements make no sense whatsoever. And I’ll explain what I mean in just a minute. Now, France has 300 nuclear warheads, among the most advanced in Europe outside the US’s nuclear delivery platforms.

That are currently there, as well as the weapons they have stored in multiple countries throughout Europe. So France is going to take the lead, and UK is going to provide their 16 Stormtroopers. Okay. And as I indicated, Germany is going to deploy 100 of their 600 strong Taurus missile systems to Ukraine so that they can get a big nuclear target on their back. The Europeans think that if they can keep this war going for one more year, that Putin is going to buckle in his demands and relinquish control of the four territories. That’s what they genuinely believe, or that’s what they want their people to believe.

You’re going to see a remilitarization of Europe on a scale never before seen. Even Steer Keir Starmer. I was going to call him Steer Karma. Keir Starber and his 16 Stormtroopers are saying that this is gonna be the biggest militarization since the Cold War. Now, let’s get to Donald Trump’s statements, shall we? This is a real tweet. Okay. I want. This is not parody. This is not satire. This is not the Onion. This is what he said. Wrote. He wrote. I don’t think he wrote this unless it was like, Trump’s brain writing this. And he refers to himself in the third person this frequently.

Here’s what Donald J. Trump wrote on Twitter, and I believe this is still up. If it’s not, I’ll have the screenshot now. Zelinsky will have no choice, he says, but to back down and accept Trump’s terms. Speaking in the third person. But here’s the genius part. He’s basically commending his own genius. Trump is actually protecting Ukraine without dragging the US into war. It’s almost like he cut and pasted this from somebody else who was interpreting what his mixed messaging is. Anyways, I’ll quit interjecting my opinion here. By negotiating a mineral deal, Trump ensures that Americans will be involved in Ukraine’s mining industry.

This prevents Russia from launching an invasion because attacking Ukraine would mean endangering American lives, something that would force the US to respond. Would it really force them to respond? Why? I mean, you put guys in harm’s way, you give them danger pay, get on with your day. But that’s what they say anyways. Trump played both sides like a master chess player. In the end, Zelinsky will have no choice but to concede, because without US Support, Ukraine cannot win a prolonged war against Russia. And once US Companies have mining operations in Ukraine, Putin will be unable to attack without triggering massive international consequences.

It’s funny. How they put the burden on the international consequences and not on the United States themselves. There. Don’t underestimate Donald Trump. Donald Trump says in this game of chess, he’s 10 moves ahead of everyone. Okay, so just recap that for a second. He’s saying that he’s playing both sides. Now imagine you’re the Russians reading this. People are going to say, oh, it’s just him intentionally using ambiguous language to try to bamboozle and perplex people so they don’t know where he stands. But then what’s the point of saying anything at all, really, when it comes down to it? You might as well just, you know, say both things and leave people guessing.

Uh, because people aren’t going to. They’re gonna watch what you do and not what you say. And as far as we know, as of this time, contrary to popular belief, weapons shipments are still flowing into Ukraine. Okay, so he says that now Zelensky will have no choice but to back down and accept Trump’s terms. So it. It sounds like the de facto position there is that Trump wants this deal. And in fact, Zelenskyy today said in a tweet that he is willing to come back to the table and make the deal. So the deal is going to go through.

Okay, so maybe my prediction of Zelenskyy’s resignation, well, I think that is definitely not too far off in the future. Maybe that will be postponed for now. And all of these theatrics with the acrimony in the Oval Office potentially was just that maybe, you know, it was very imprudent for Zelensky to present himself in the first 40 minutes or 50 minutes or so of that exchange. Having re watched it a couple times, it really does seem as though Zelensky has let the entitled mentality go to his head. You know, he’s only ever had the red carpet extended to him wherever he’s went, and he’s never really had to go up against any sort of resistance.

But there’s a lot of contradictions to that resistance. And before I forget this point, somebody made, it made me aware of a contradiction over the weekend. That was Mike Wallace, who was the one that was saying that the Ukrainians need to bring down their conscription age to 18. Remember what conscription is. That means hauling guys against their will and throwing them into the meat grinder. Well, remember when J.D. vance in the Oval Office was chastising Zelensky for basically conscripting people against their will to send them off to war? Well, isn’t that a contradiction there? So, again, you know, these guys are masquerading as having the moral high ground.

But what you can really see here is that there’s a lot of duplicity happening. And, and that based on Trump’s tweet here, I think this is a tell all. Now, I don’t know if, if this wasn’t a hack, I don’t think, I don’t know if Trump just, you know, copied and pasted from somebody else and he thought it was a great summary of his point of view. But calling yourself a chess player, that you’re 10 moves ahead of everybody and you’re telling the Russians that you’re playing them and that you’re setting it up so that you’re going to essentially put troops on the ground.

Because what you’re saying is you’re equating US Contractors to troops because you’re saying, well, if we put US Personnel on the ground, then that’s as good as putting troops on the ground, because that’s our tacit security guarantee. So then it’s no different than in putting U.S. troops on the ground. Right? When you think about it, if he’s saying that if we put our people on the ground, you know, our Halliburton equivalent, contractors on the ground, our miners on the ground, and if those people get caught in the crossfire, then we’re going to send troops, then what’s really the difference, right? Because you could put those guys in places where they’re not supposed to be, in places where they’re perhaps in harm’s way, or you could leverage that strategically in the actual war, and then you can just say, well, you got one of our guys, now we got to send in troops.

So that’s really ultimately then no different in sending troops. So is Russia going to be okay with US Troops on the ground, much less for UK troops on the ground and Taurus missiles and this new nuclear umbrella? I don’t think so. So this is a very interesting development. And everything just got put on its head this weekend, you know, And I gotta say, you know, I tweeted out over the weekend, I said, why is Trump so fixated on these empty platitudes from Zelinsky? Like, why is he wanting him to come back and beg, demanding a public apology from Zelensky when the focus should be on genuine peacemaking? Does Zelensky’s efforts to ingratiate himself with Trump provide enough political leverage amongst MAGA to advance a plan to militarize Ukraine? Is that what this is really about? Is this really about Trump being able to make a power play in front of his base so that he could say, hey, I put him in his place, and we’re just going to do the whole putting troops in Ukraine thing, the thing that Biden, you know, said would start World War iii.

We’re going to do that thing in a different roundabout sort of way. Right. So it appears as though Trump is making it clear that he wants a public apology from Zelensky. And once that criteria has been fulfilled, then he’s willing to sign the deal once again. I also wrote over the weekend, if Trump is truly concerned with saving lives more than with money, and that’s a direct quote he want. It’s about money, right? It’s not really about. It’s about, we’ll help you if you give us money. It’s not about recouping costs from the past. Why would the Ukrainians care if they had never made the deal to be brokered in that way? Then why is there such an obsession with the deal? Why is it a barrier to initiating peace talks with Russia? Why is it so important about extracting a few dollars from an industrial partnership, one that Bloomberg even deems economically unviable? It’s because the deal serves as a Trojan horse to turn Ukraine into a de facto NATO member of under the guise of reconstructing a secure and prosperous Ukraine.

This is called mission creep. Russia opposes this deal. Obviously, they oppose the deal between the Ukrainians and the Americans, which is why Putin has issued a counter offer. The Russians are okay with Russian troops surrounding Americans while they mine resources, but they don’t want Americans in there doing it behind British peacekeepers of all things. So you see how this play is being played. So what Trump said there in that, if that was for real, I mean, either he got hacked or he’s just hoping that it’s just gonna add like a 5D chess layer to this whole thing.

I don’t know. Anyways, Russia opposes this deal. There’s no way they want the US Or European peacekeepers interfering in their advance and providing cover for the remilitarization of Ukraine. Nothing is as simple as it seems. Consider that the US has earned billions more from liquid natural gas and oil exports since Nord Stream was blown up. Some people think that they’re going to try to reacquire some sort of stake in Nord Stream and turn that back on again, but I’m. I don’t think so. I don’t think that’s going to happen because they’re making money hand over fist with their liquid natural gas in Numerous ways the US Indirectly profits from Russia’s economic decline, including the weakening of industrial Europe and the erosion of the euro status as a reserve currency.

The longer Europe remains in a perpetual state of war, the euro is going to continue to weaken. And this rift between Zelensky and Trump, it’s interesting that it comes about during the repatriation of 2,000 tons of gold, I mean, an insane amount of gold from the LBMA to the United States. And it makes me think. I just had a thought throughout this video. I wonder if Trump’s nod to the crypto reserve, saying that they’re going to put xrp, Solana and what was the other one? Cordano, Cardano. And then they later said Bitcoin and Ethereum as a pool of crypto assets.

Okay, for a crypto reserve. I wonder if that was just to send some more money from precious metals to try to bring down the price again so they can continue to load up and then they’re going to rug pull everybody in crypto again. I wonder if that’s what this is about. Because of course crypto was a bloodbath last week, right? Somebody started selling for some reason. I told you that the markets were going to collapse. I thought it was going to start last week. All of the indicators are there where the most overvalued as ever before.

I’ll show you more charts. I’ve shown you hundreds of charts that confirm that. Everybody knows that. But crypto was that canary in the coal mine, right? Because that’s one of the highest risk assets. If you. I hate calling it an asset because I just think it’s dumb. Nonetheless, nonetheless, they are now pumping the price once again, getting all the retail to FOMO back in, panicking, trying to get back in everybody who sold thinking that this was the end. Now all those people are likely going to take some of their money from the paper. The paper, precious metals markets, put that into crypto, thinking that Trump is going to make some crypto reserve and understand what a crypto reserve is.

A crypto reserve is nothing paid for with nothing. How is the US Supposed to create a reserve when it’s in a deficit? When you’re in a deficit, you can’t create a reserve because it’s money that doesn’t exist. So the US Is gonna take money that doesn’t exist to do this pump and dump scheme. I mean, the American people should be outraged at what’s going on in the insider trading. Trump leveraging his influence on social media to pump crypto. I mean, we’re Talking about hundreds of billions of dollars that went into crypto within an hour of of Trump making a tweet first.

He made a tweet that said the following. He first made a tweet that said a U.S. crypto reserve will elevate this crypto industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden administration. Which is why my executive order on digital assets directed the presidential working group to move forward on a crypto strategic reserve that includes xrp, Sol and Ada. And we’ll make sure the US is the crypto capital of the world. We’re making America great again. And then half an hour after all the bitcoin bros were losing their minds and bitcoin was getting ready to sell off, he comes out with this tweet.

And this is how you know it’s pure market manipulation. And there’s got to be somebody investigating this man, because this is just dirty. This is dirty. A president should not be doing this kind of thing. And you’ll never convince me otherwise. If Biden was doing this, I would be saying the exact same thing. Here’s what he says next. I don’t even know if this is him. I think this is Barron Trump using his account. Okay? And obviously bitcoin and Ethereum as well as other valuable cryptocurrencies will be at the heart of the reserve. Notice the language there.

That’s going to be at the heart of the reserve. So all the bit bros after reading that second tweet, rejoiced and they pumped the price price of bitcoin through the roof. Now, it was found out that about 12 hours before this announcement there were some big, big purchases on leverage. 50x leverage. Okay, meaning that somebody is going to be making a lot of money borrowing 50x. And I think the deal was, was it 200 million or it was something crazy like that. Okay, 200 million at 50x leverage. And they bet that bitcoin was going to make a big move.

And so those, whoever that was, I mean, we know who it was, it was insiders that are around Trump because, you know, Trump’s just not going to randomly tweet something about crypto. Somebody in the know, in the mix is going to make a move. So they front ran this with that. And that’s very dirty because that’s, you know, retailers, that’s the retail pub, that’s a public who’s going to get rugged, who are going to be on the lines, on the line for that. Okay? So that’s where that money comes from. It’s a Zero sum game, crypto, something else.

Another thought I had on the whole Zelinsky, Ukraine, Russia war over the weekend was even though the Russians are pleased that the prospect was Zelensky being deposed, they also recognize American disloyalty, okay? And they know that American politicians cannot be trusted. It’s a double edged sword, as that old proverb goes. Those who talk with you about others also talk about you with others. And the Russians are looking at this and they’re saying, wow, you know, if they’re willing to throw Zelensky under the bus, their ally, imagine what they’re going to do to us, their enemy, when the time comes.

And of course, that chicken hawk, what’s his name, Lindsey Graham, threatened to nuke Russia two years ago. And then he came out singing a completely different tune the other day. Of course unwavering in his support for the Trump administration. We all know he has a lot of skeletons that he’s trying to keep in that closet. If anybody’s being blackmailed to holy hell, it’s that guy. So I think all of this is gonna backfire anyways, because the Europeans in Zelinsky, they have a lot of different ways that they could flip the table right now. All right, so that’s basically what has happened over the weekend.

The crypto market has flipped and Europe is getting to arm Ukraine to the teeth with everything they possibly can. And it appears as though Trump is getting ready to flip flop on the Ukraine deal as well. So we’ll see what happens tomorrow. Hey, guys, go check out my review of the Cyber Truck. Now, don’t be fooled by the title. Yes, I would definitely say it’s a glaring review in terms of, you know, using it for preparedness purposes. I’ve always been a Tesla bull since back in the day when it was very uncool in the preparedness community.

And when the word Tesla made right wing pundits shudder. Now the complete opposite is true. But I was in there long before it was ever cool to be a Tesla investor. And when the Cyber Truck first came out, I signed up on the list to reserve one. Of course, I’m not going to be taking that. After you watch that video, you’ll know why. But there’s good things and there’s bad things, okay? There’s pros and cons to evs. It’s not just ice engine purism, I definitely think. And as an owner of several Tesla vehicles over the years, I can say that EVs have a place in preparedness, but just not that one in particular.

And you’re gonna have to go and watch that video to find out the reasons as to why. I think it’s probably one of the most fair and balanced views that you’re going to get on an EV and the cybertruck, for that matter, on the Internet. Okay, so go and check it out. We got a lot of great content coming for you this weekend, and I’ll try to keep you apprised of what’s going on in the world. Thanks for watching my friends. Canadian Prepper out.
