President Trump is touting his peacemaking efforts between
Ukraine and Putin’s Russia. Those
efforts and the related actions bear a closer look, and over a longer time interval. They are NOT what they seem to be! Here is why I say that:
First bear in mind that Russia became an enemy of the US and
Europe again, after Putin became its
“president”, in which position he was
rapidly revealed to be a hostile dictator.
Ukraine became the de-facto proxy of the US and Europe (essentially
NATO), holding back part of Putin’s
stated objective of re-conquering those parts of Europe that had been part of
the Soviet Union, and perhaps more. Ukraine is one of those parts. Some others are now NATO members, risking open war if he tries. This is therefore quite serious!
Ukraine’s role as NATO’s proxy began with Russia’s illegal
annexation of the Crimea in 2014, during
the Obama administration. The US and
NATO did nothing militarily themselves to roll back the Russian takeover
of the Crimea, but did start supporting
Ukraine’s efforts to prepare to defend itself against further Russian conquest. That further conquest actually started with
Russian troops, illegally disguised as
“not-Russian”, operating as supposed Ukrainian
separatists, in the Donbas region. This started shortly after the Crimea was
annexed, and continued until the more
recent full-scale military invasion by Russia.
Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, during the Biden administration, starting a war of conquest then only expected
to last mere days. The US and NATO did
supply money and weapons by which Ukraine could resist, but we did not actually intervene
militarily. Instead, economic sanctions were applied to put
pressure on Russia to stop, which slowly
damaged the Russian economy fairly-seriously.
The Ukrainians have been resisting this invasion valiantly
on their own ever since, supported only by
lots of money and weapons from the US and NATO.
That is the very definition of a NATO proxy against Putin’s
ambitions in Europe! And I remind
you, the US is part of NATO, despite Trump’s evident and stated desires
otherwise.
Then Donald Trump became the US President for his second
term in January 2025, and almost
immediately reduced US monetary and weapons support for Ukraine to near-zero
levels, leaving only the much smaller
amounts of support from the other NATO countries, and not all of them. At the same time, he removed the US sanctions upon Russia, thus greatly reducing the pressure on Russia
to stop their war of aggression. He
thereby rewarded Putin’s efforts, and
punished Ukraine. This even included
publicly insulting Ukraine’s Zelenskyy in the White House, to the total embarrassment of all who saw
this.
In the months since,
Ukraine has been running out of money and weapons with which to continue
the fight, forcing them to consider the
possibility of having to surrender. That
means the end of their independence from much larger Russia.
Trump got angry with Putin for a very brief interval, but has since returned to his support for
Putin’s Russia, not our ally and proxy
Ukraine. The initial draft of his
so-called “28-point peace plan” has since been revealed to be quite literally many
of Putin’s demands, just on White House
letterhead! THAT TRAVESTY is what
the “peace negotiations” are trying to force upon Zelenskyy and Ukraine. And Putin is greedy, he wants even more.
Meanwhile Russia pounds Ukraine with near-daily lethal
strikes, deliberately targeting
civilians (a war crime) and civilian infrastructure, unimpeded in any way since the lifting of
the sanctions! The longer
Trump can delay things while Putin pounds Ukraine, the more likely Ukraine will run out of
supplies and be forced to surrender. Now you know the real plan behind Trump’s
“peace proposal”!
What Trump is really trying to do is force Ukraine to
surrender to end the war, so that he can
take political credit for “being a peacemaker”!
To do that, Trump has betrayed
our ally Ukraine! And, Trump
has threatened in public to renege on the NATO treaty, more than once, which would weaken NATO enough for Putin to
retake the countries he wants who are members of NATO. Trump puts pressure on Ukraine, and takes it off of Russia! Yet Putin’s Russia is the so-very-evident enemy
of NATO, and the US! Trump is literally and overtly
providing aid and comfort to our enemy Putin’s Russia, by trying to help them to win their war of
aggression in our ally Ukraine! There
is no other reasonable interpretation of this!
For Putin, it is
clear that retaining any (or all) of Ukraine’s territory is his “win”! He has said so. And Xi in China is just waiting to see
Putin have some success against the US and NATO, before invading Taiwan and annexing the South
China Sea. Which would likely start
World War 3 in the Pacific! And, the longer the Ukraine debacle drags on, the more aggressive Xi becomes! We’ve
all seen that happening, in the news
reports.
Now you know the really-terrible threat to the entire world that
Trump’s Ukraine “policy” actually poses,
beyond just the evil devastation heaped onto the people of Ukraine!
-----
I quote from the US Constitution (highlights are mine):
From Article III:
-----
“Adhering to their enemies,
giving them aid and comfort” from Article III is EXACLY what Trump’s efforts
to aid Russia, and deplete our ally and
proxy Ukraine, actually do! So,
Trump’s efforts there are treason! There is no other reasonable
interpretation!
The quote from Article II says “shall be removed from
office upon impeachment for, and
conviction of, treason … ”. The
use of the wording “shall be” leaves no other option for Congress but to
act, once the crime is apparent. There is no other option for them under
the Constitution!
For members of the House and Senate not to act once Trump’s
crime of treason is publicly apparent, likely
makes them complicit in that treason themselves, and certainly puts them in defiance of the
Constitution’s requirement that they act (which would also thereby certainly
qualify as “high crimes or misdemeanors” on their parts).
You have always had the power to remove them from office by
simply voting for somebody else, at
every election up to now! However that power only continues, if there are any more honest elections from
this point forward, but that is another
issue for another article.
Trump’s crime of treason is blatantly (and now
publicly with this posting) apparent, and his tendency to commit it has been
evident since his first term as President!
This initially became apparent almost 8 years ago, when during his first term, Trump went to a meeting at Helsinki in July
2018, and met with Putin, among other world leaders!
There at that meeting,
on live TV, he publicly sided
with Putin, and publicly said he disbelieved
his own intelligence agencies, regarding
Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Some, including myself, thought that was treason back then.
That Russian election interference has since been proven to
have occurred, despite Trump’s claims
otherwise to this very day! And he
still sides with Putin at every opportunity,
as the current situation in the Ukraine war demonstrates!
You have an evident traitor as your president, and you elected him twice! THAT is the power of misinformation given to the public, without any legal requirements for telling the truth!
Trump and Putin at Helsinki, July 2018
Unfortunately, the
Supreme Court has granted Trump immunity from prosecution for crimes committed
while in office as the President.
That mistake on their part needs to be rectified quickly and
retroactively! But even if Trump cannot be prosecuted in
federal court and actually punished for his treason, at least he can be removed from office
by Congress with impeachment and conviction,
so that he cannot commit such treason again so easily!
I
have now with this posting, viewable by
anyone, publicly pointed out the crime of
treason apparently committed by President Trump, and I have justified this allegation with
known facts and with relevant citations from the US Constitution in this very
article!
Millions witnessed these events live as they happened on TV, so certainly there could be at least two
who could testify before the House and Senate as to what they have
witnessed. That meets the Constitutional
requirement of at least “two witnesses” in order to convict!
All
you Senators and Representatives, you
are now obligated by the Constitution to act upon this publicly-apparent Trump
treason, lest you be
in violation of the Constitution, and also
likely complicit in Trump’s crime of treason!
Why must you act? Precisely because
the allegation is public, and
well-supported, too!
Final Remarks
All of this complicated treason issue is separate from the
issue of Trump and his minions committing possible war crimes by destroying
alleged drug-running boats, and killing
their occupants, at sea ***. And it
is separate from the multi-faceted issue of a Trump dictatorship now already partly
imposed upon the US. And it is also separate from the issue of
Trump and his minions illegally mistreating immigrants by detentions and attempted
deportations, all without due process, and evidently racially motivated, so far.
Each of those is also an impeachable and convictable “high
crime and misdemeanor”. But those three issues
are not covered here.
The
issue at hand here is only evident treason by President Donald
Trump, betraying our ally Ukraine, by trying to force its surrender to our
common enemy: Putin’s Russia!
