I agree on all points
Edit. I voted for Trump all 3 times. IMO, he was better than any other candidate in the general election.
I am most impressed with the term at how many major and minor issues he is handling at one time. The 4 year absence from office was time to plan like no one else ever has in my lifetime.

I hope you the Russian fanboys of this thread can appreciate what a real advance looks like.
And now, just as a couple of times before, Putin gets saved... his warchest will get a windfall, which means he can buy more weapons from China and hire more mercenaries from wherever... so I hope these advances at least hold.

And what Trump is doing with Venezuela, Cuba, and Iran is already the greatest accomplishment in American foreign policy since the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Iran isn't over... the regime remains in power, and short of an American invasion (Israel does not have the numbers to do that on their own, and if they commit any significant amount of forces Hezbollah will take advantage of that and invade Israel itself) they will remain in power... and Putin is helping them in any way he can.
Cuba is beneficial to us for being a leech on Russia that offers nothing in return (Russia can't sneak any missiles or anything there, can they?...)...
and Venezuela... well, it's been effective as a shakedown operation for Trump to steal oil from, but Maduro's regime is still in power and nothing has changed for the population... so just another reason for them to hate us and potentially act against us if someone manipulates that hatred.
I disagree with you... but that's that... the idea that Trump acts to harm Putin is laughable to me...

Anyone upset about the Iran operation who has chirped for years about how good supporting Ukraine is for the US is a fricking hypocrite..sorry.
You're just worried about how the oil price increase impacts Ukraine. You don't actually give a shite about US interests abroad. This is truly a mask off movement... Take note of who is saying what right now and remember it.

Job 1 is Iran. No discussion.
If I have to pay an extra ten bucks a week at the pump to make us safe from these zealots, that’s cheap.
The fact rising oil prices helps Russia is unfortunate, but it’s just another example of how world politics can and does impact us whether we like it or not.
The US comes first. I say that and I still support Ukraine.

And overall, the Iran conflict is still a boost to Ukraine. Israel, a number of Gulf States, and even Japan are now in talks to buy ukrainian-made drones. This is going to be a massive boost for the Ukrainian defense industry.
Besides that, all the Gulf nations are very much aware that part of the reason that they have been hit with ballistic missiles and drones is that Russia has a defense pact with Iran, and Russia has been helping Iran with its technology. Russia has made itself stink to everyone in the Middle East.

It all illustrates how small the world really is and those that don’t believe things that happen over there can’t hurt us over here are wrong.

Also China is implicated though not to the extent of Russia.

Only because you have a James Carville level of TDS.
Cuba is vital to Russia and China to threaten shipping to/from the Gulf Coast. It always has been that way, whether via Florida Strait, or the Strait between Cuba and Mexico. it's smack dab in the middle to threaten both, not that much different than the Strait of Hormuz. Look at a freakin map or once.
It's also Panama and Chinese losing those two ports it had on either side o the Panama Canal.
It's also losing Venezuela but that hurts China more than Russia.
Iran hurts China too, road and belt initiative
It's a matter of weeks, but the men without balls are bitching and moaning about spending $10 more a week on gasoline. It may take a few boots on the ground to capture vital parts if Iran but I'm hoping that this doesn't need to happen. Mines do not disguise between shios going to/from Iran and others but those idiots are crazy as they have already displayed.
Regardless the US comes out on top as the World's Superpower AGAIN.

BTW, George Friedman, who loathes Trump, is in full agreement with Trump's strategy and its success.

pretty good resolution. There's another image worth viewing in the article.
BlackSky Deploys Fourth Gen-3 Satellite Drawing on Ukraine Experience

The US company BlackSky Technology announced the successful commissioning of its fourth Gen-3 satellite less than a week after launch.
According to the company’s official press release, services providing high-resolution imagery with a resolution of 35 centimeters and artificial intelligence-based analytics are now available through the BlackSky Spectra platform.
Using its proprietary AI tools, customers can automatically detect and classify vehicles, vessels and aircraft.
In February, BlackSky presented its latest third-generation reconnaissance satellite at the World Defense Show 2026 international defense exhibition in Riyadh.
According to the developers, Ukraine has significantly influenced approaches to the use of satellite data. The experience of Ukrainian special units demonstrated the practical value of artificial intelligence capable of processing satellite imagery in real time.
At the exhibition stand, the company demonstrated ‘before’ and ‘after’ imagery showing the consequences of strikes on military facilities.

A U.S.-based robotics company developing humanoid machines for industrial and defense applications has begun testing its technology in a conflict environment while pursuing potential partnerships with U.S. defense and homeland security agencies.
According to reporting from TIME, Foundation Robotics recently sent two of its Phantom MK1 humanoid robots to Ukraine for operational testing. Company officials say the project is part of an effort to evaluate how humanoid robotic systems might perform in high-risk environments alongside human soldiers.
