World leaders are building up their military forces knowing that not only is America not reliable, it's outright antagonistic. We see headlines like the following Prime Minister Carney of Canada says he wants Canada to join the major European defense plan, looking away from the United States towards Europe. You have headlines about the new Chancellor of Germany from Friedrich Mars saying that Germany is eyeing the strongest EU army by 2031. Chancellor Frederick Mars plans to make his army the strongest conventional army in Europe. Other EU countries also have ambitious plans for their armed forces. A massive military buildup is underway and you have people like French President Emmanuel Macron making statements that in the past would probably seem to be not as diplomatic with the United States president, but a credibility test for the Americans is how French President Emmanuel Macron is phrasing it. French President Emmanuel Macron calling out Donald Trump for Trump's failures to respond to Putin and Putin constantly humiliating him. French President Emmanuel Macron says the following quote, I spoke 48 hours ago with President Trump, who expressed his impatience. The question now is what? What do we do about it? What are you going to do about it? We are ready in France. We are ready in Europe, president Macron said. What are you doing, Donald? Meanwhile, you have President Zelinsky in Ukraine saying the following. Russia is dragging out the war and doing everything it can simply to deceive the countries that are still trying to influence Moscow with words rather than pressure. Pause. Y' all know who he's talking about, right? He's talking about Trump. Words do not work with Moscow. You know what he's talking about there as well? Donald Trump's all caps social media post. I'm really a man at you about Vlad Vladimir Putin. I'm mad at you. He goes on to say, even the so called memorandum, which they promised and allegedly spent over a week preparing, no one has seen it yet. It has not been shared with Ukraine. It has not been shared with our partners. They haven't even shared the new agenda with Turkey, the country that hears that hosted the first meeting, although they promised the exact opposite. And above all, they promised it to the United States, to President Trump, another Russian deception. They are doing everything to ensure the meetings are meaningless. And that is yet another reason why there should be sufficient sanctions, sufficient to pressure Russia. Now, when you have people like Kellogg, one of Donald Trump's liaisons, who was at first the liaison to Russia and Ukraine, now just the liaison to Ukraine, saying NATO expansion is a fair concern for Putin. I mean, Keith Kellogg used to be someone who was standing up to Putin. How embarrassing can you be there? And when you see other statements of capitulation, like Donald Trump saying, two more weeks, two more weeks, two more weeks. The rest of the world says, we're building up our armies. The United States is tapped out. United States is done. Donald Trump put the United States into the Trump dumpster. We're getting it. We're getting ready ourselves. Take a look at this compilation right here of Trump consistently saying two weeks, two weeks, two weeks. I'm giving him two more weeks, two more weeks. That's Donald Trump's line about everything. Play this clip.
Donald Trump
You crushed President Putin, you know, in about two weeks.
Health Product Promoter
Is Ukraine doing enough to get this?
Donald Trump
To get this? I'd rather tell you in about two weeks from now saying two weeks about President Putin. What is two weeks?
Political Commentator
Give us, what is the actual date?
Donald Trump
What is the timeline? Two weeks or less. And if it's a little more at the time, I say, but you know, they're losing a lot of people.
Political Analyst
See those little dates up at the top. April 27th, May 19th. Today is May 28th. So two weeks, two weeks, two weeks. Now we're still two weeks away.

And meanwhile, you have the United States Acting Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN John Kelly, saying that the United States will walk away from peace talks if Russia continues the war. So if Russia continues, then US Disengages. What kind of incentive structure is that? Quote, in doing so, we're not abandoning our principles or our friends. Rather, we are recognizing Russia's refusal to work with us to achieve the desired outcome. We condemn Russia's decision over the weekend to launch some of its largest Michelin drone strikes on Ukraine. This does not demonstrate a desire for peace. The deal being offered now is the best possible outcome for Russia. Putin must make a deal. If one side proves unable or willing to do so, it will bear the consequences. Additional sanctions against Russia are still being considered, as my buddy Jay in Kiev writes. And there it is. If Putin doesn't agree to stop the massacre in Ukraine, Trump will obey his Russian master and bow down, taking the Russian cash like he always wanted to do. It was all the it was all theater to pacify the electorate that understands that Ukraine must win.

Show you also this is not getting a lot of attention. It's why I think it's vital for our platform here on the Midas Touch Network to show you how the Trump regime is trying to I mean I think this is doing Putin's bidding right here, influence elections of candidates who are supported by Putin and sympathetic to Putin around the world. You know, the organization in the United States called cpac, which used to stand for the Conservative Political Action Committee or conference, basically became a right wing maga nutcase thing. Ultra maga Extremist thing. They hold events now in European countries and right before there's a European election, like the election that's right here in the election in Poland, there's a far right wing candidate and there is a centrist European Union candidate. And so what CPAC does, they hold conferences in places like Poland, in Hungary. And then Trump regime officials go into these countries to try to influence the elections to get Putin puppets elected. It's right in front of our eyes that Trump is sending his cabinet level people to try to help Putin's puppets take over these countries. So I'll give you the example. In the past 48 hours you had dog killer cosplayer US Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem simping for Carol Noraki, the right wing, far right wing extremist Putin backed candidate saying that he should be the next president of Poland. And he or she was attacking the mayor of Warsaw, the pro eu, pro democracy candidate. But you'll see this is a perfect example. CPAC in America trying to influence and interfere in foreign elections. And remember, we saw that in Germany, we see it all over the place. But take a look at Kristi Noem in Poland. Play this clip.

The US Secretary of Homeland Security Christine Oem said that Karol Novrotsky should be the next president of Poland. Speaking at the CPAC conference in Zhasov in Poland's southeast, Noem also criticized his run of rival and Warsaw mayor Rafajaskowski.
Political Analyst
I just had the opportunity to meet with Carol and listen. He needs to be the next president of Poland. Do you understand me? It matters who's in charge. I have watched over the years as socialists and people that are just like this mayor out of Warsaw that is an absolute train wreck of a leader have destroyed our countries because they have led by fear. They have used fear to control people and they've used fear to promote an agenda that is not what liberty is about.
Political Commentator
Right. You didn't see that on U.S. media. Right. And she didn't repost that clip on her social media. She posted a clip with herself in the current president of Poland that a guy named Andres, Andres as Duda. And he is also kind of a right wing guy, although not as far right wing as this Carol guy who's running. So she showed that, oh, I'm just doing. I'm here to talk with the president of Poland and the parliamentary system Poland, they have a president, they have a prime minister. Their prime minister is a significant, is a more powerful position than the president and is a pro eu, pro democracy guy. But that's what she was doing there. You saw that clip. Here's Donald Trump making a video of himself. There was also a CPAC going on in Hungary where many expect in the next election. Viktor Orban, the right wing, authoritarian, Putin backed guy in Hungary is going to lose. But you'll see Donald Trump making this video for the cpac, the American organization CPAC throwing events in Hungary. Play this clip.
Donald Trump
You know how I feel about Hungary and you, you know how I feel about cpac. I really respect and love them both. I also want to pay a very special regard to the leader of Hungary, Viktor Orban, who's a great man and highly respected by everybody. He's done a brilliant job of leading and he's a very, very special person. And as far as CPAC is concerned, all over the world they're respected as an organization. They have conservative values. But the conservative values are very good values. And that I can tell you. They want strong borders, they want law and order, they want all of the things that you want. They feel strongly about the military. It's got to be fair, it's got to be just, it's got to be all of the things that you want to make a country great and to make your life great. So I just want to thank everybody and again to Matt and Mikolos and all of the people, all of my friends there, we appreciate you being there and enjoy it, enjoy your lives. I'll see you soon.

I think it's worth noting as well that there's so many things that Donald Trump has done to harm America, harming our alliances, destroying our federal government from the inside. But you know, Trump's attack on universities is gonna cause a massive amount of damage. I mean, you think about who are the leaders of some of the major American corporations. They were immigrants from foreign countries who studied in the U.S. studied at the top institutions, stayed in the U.S. and built American companies. Donald Trump is not allowing, is it going to attack foreign, foreign students from getting visas into the United States and he'll, you know, really repel them. And so, you know, we're seeing now whether it's Hong Kong, European Union, Canada, elsewhere, making big Japan, Kyoto, making big pleas to students, come here, scientists, come here. We got your back. We'll give you money, we'll invest in you, we'll make it safe. You can learn all the things you want to learn about. We're fact based. That's going to hurt the United States in a, you know, in the long run for sure. Well, anyway, there you have it, folks. You see the world leader reactions. Let me know what you think.
