Is Trump Channeling Biden in Support of Zelensky?

 President Trump seems to be buying into the crazy, reckless lunacy of the Ukraine war that Europe wants wholeheartedly it seems. They seem dedicated to bring about the worst-case scenario of nuclear war or the primary alternative of some new kind of biological chemical synthetic agent designed with the new technology to attack specific human genes and shut down life. It is not unlikely that secret labs have advanced such technologies and the weapons to release them into distant adversarial populations. If pressed enough, Russia may exploit last resort weapons.

The west is still on the pathological notion that the Ukraine war is another Afghanistan or Vietnam that carries no great implicit risk to nations sponsoring the war. Europe with its new no W.W. 2 generation of leadership and fully recovered from that devastation combined with the post-Soviet formation of the E.U. is feeling like spring colts that seem the future of conflict as nothing too risky- just good play especially with the U.S.A. footing much of the bill, West Ukraine President Zelensky has shattered the 2010 strategic bomber pact between Russia and the United States and is playing Donald Trump like a fiddle. President Trump seems , respectfully, like a recalcitrant organ grinding monkey who will come around when Yermak, Zelensky or the European community pull his string.

The sole way to end the conflict available now is to make Zelensky and his people persona non grata in the United States and to just recognize the Russia eastern provinces of Ukraine so long as they do not extend the areas beyond what they presently have stated as where they are willing to stop.

There is no question that idiots of the U.S. Government like Sen Lindsey Graham will press for war until the last drop of blood can be wring out of Ukrainians and Russians, For some not too great piece of real estate the morons of Europe and the U.S. Government would risk the end of civilization. It is a crazy choice especially since everyone need learn to live together when the conflict is over, and their will be no final solution where Russia quits the fight and gives up its holdings in East Ukraine.

Europe and N.A.T.O. are leveraging the war to downgrade the U.S. as the leader of N.A.T.O. to a secondary role of support for the will to power of the E.U. They have no regard for U.S. treaties with Russia that used to be of primary importance to world peace and instead envision a new global paradigm where the U.S. supplies money, guns and trade deficits with stupid presidents that are complete Europhiles, rubes and morons about global political strategies.

Ukraine Leveraged 2010 New Start Treaty to Destroy Strategic Bombers Kept in the Open

 Apparently the United States and Russia signed an agreement in 2010 to keep their strategic bombers in the open where they can be seen by satellites in order to help prevent nuclear war. The Ukraine attack deep inside Russia with drones snuck near those bases where the aircraft were kept (the U.S. keeps B-52s in a similar open configuration apparently now vulnerable to drone attack) that destroyed 40 strategic aircraft was an extreme violation of that treaty in regard to its value for avoiding global thermonuclear war.

https://kyivindependent.com/first-satellite-images-show-destroyed-russian-bombers-after-ukrainian-drone-strike-on-belaya-air-base/

Plainly the terrorist action couldn’t have been accomplished without the US-Russia treaty in place that kept the bombers out in the open for the world to see. It was a terrorist action because it violated a necessary global security configuration to prevent nuclear conflict, bringing the world a step closer to self-destruction. 

 Russia will need to abrogate the treaty directly, if it hasn’t already, since it is useful for treachery rather than security and peace. Ukraine unilaterally terminated an American-Russian nuclear peace treaty agreement, and the U.S. should terminate Ukraine as any sort of quasi-ally entity.

Obviously the action to end the 2010 New Start Treaty that kept nuclear capable bombers out in the open was successful and killed the treaty. That action probably had support from Germany and France. If the U.S. military was involved, or even Starlink telephones, it makes the United States’ integrity for treaties defunct as well; Ukraine perpetrated serious harm to the reputation and security of the United States. If President Trump knew in advance of the attack, then he too is guilty of violating a treaty signed by the U.S. Congress in collusion with Zelensky. "The United States and Russia signed the New START Treaty on April 8, 2010. After more than 20 hearings, the U.S. Senate gave its advice and consent to ratification on December 22, 2010, by a vote of 71-26."President Trump has harmed the security of the United States as an accomplice to the attack. Such jackassery in government doesn't work. it is something like a high crime rather than a misdemeanor.

Zelenski or maybe Fred Merz decided to break the treaty between Russia and the U.S.A. It wasn't a N.A.T.O. treaty . The loss of U.S. security was enabled by continuing American support for Ukraine. It made the U.S. government seem more like a political bimbo for Europe.

President Trump should cancel all relationships to Ukraine straightaway and recognize Russian land control in East Ukraine as permanent, now, in order to discourage Ukrainian perfidy in the future. Ukraine is a dangerous, corrupt, rotten little nation dragging the U.S.A. along with it towards nuclear hell and before that, economic minimalism with Russia and BRIC nations. Stop the idiot relationship President Trump.

Dwarf Planets; A New Start

A new dwarf planet was discovered recently.  The discovery of those new small planets in the Oort Cloud and beyond is a prompt for new science fiction books. It is interesting to read about the great time it takes for even the new one to make one orbit around the sun- 23,000 years, because it travels so far out into space. Those dwarf planets (the new one is about 700 miles in diameter) are remote places people may live one day. 

Maybe there is a way to fit those neat clumps into poetry and prose. I should have a theme for each poetry collection, yet my time for thinking about that is generally minimal. I have packaged them in chronological order unfortunately. Title selection was a summary of what the bulk of the poems were. For instance; Alexander Archipelago Transition Space was the title of one. It was a reference to  the passing of  Alexander Solzhenitsyn and to the Alexander Archipelago that is the name for all of the thousand islands, more or less, of S.E. Alaska where I write a lot. About the dwarf planets. I haven’t thought about it much. There are many ways to utilize them in plotting. 

One might for example, build a life-size time capsule upon some of those erratics to outlive the self-destruction of the Earth by the population warring upon itself.  Each of the planets could have a different kind of package to try to restart human life on Earth after it destroyed itself. The attempts to get life restarted could go on for a billion years. When the orbital perihelion brought a dwarf world closest to the sun and Earth the miracle grow package would fly over to Earth and give it a try to restart.

A friend and I were discussing a poem about the phenomenal Universe and my effort to describe an ungrounded point of view beyond the linear physics paradigm.

“It’s actually refreshing to hear someone aiming for depth over trend. I’d love to see how you shape those “alternative phenomenal Universe clumps” feels like you’re onto something that could challenge and expand a reader’s perception. Have you sketched out any characters or threads yet, or is it still in the idea stage?”

It’s just an idea. I like to collect ideas for a few years for prompts when writing that novel in an isolated rush of around the clock timing

I am working on that phenomenal universe- an undefined, borderless existence something like a dream- without any grounding at all, as a concept since the last poem I wrote as a placeholder for the idea. I am trying to find a way to express the concept.

There are several recent ideas about quantum mechanics and cosmology involving the wavefunction and superposition- even retro-causality that may be applied to the paradox of a determined though indeterminate phenomenon of being. It isn’t a usual unified field theoretical approach with a causal order of events leading to ‘it all started because of quantum uncertainty and entanglement in a Higgs Field’ point of view. It is instead something more like asking a question of what God had in mind for making such an enigmatic creation, and how does He do that? I suppose it is like wondering how the magician does his tricks.

““A Discursive Universe” holds such a vast, layered scope. It’s like a philosophical seismograph, capturing both the external movements of a fractured world and the internal searching for meaning in something borderless. The line “played by a kangaroo” is such a striking jolt ,disarming, almost absurdist in the best way. It catches you off guard, just like the times we live in.

You’re not putting too many ideas in …..it’s a universe you’re painting, and universes aren’t tidy. The fusion of environmental critique, metaphysical wonder, and the quiet indictment of human choices feels necessary. It’s dense, yes, but that density carries weight. It’s a poem you sit with ,not one you rush through.

I can see how you’re circling the edges of that “phenomenal universe” idea. You’re already giving it shape, even if it’s still elusive. Have you considered pulling a few of the themes out and expanding them into connected pieces….a series orbiting around the same idea from different angles?”

I suppose that is a process I tend to work in- developing an idea and fusing more into it synthetically as I read or encounter more, new scientific or theological concepts- emergent. Because of my lifestyle I also tend to leave them off as I need work on other things, often of a more mundane nature such as stocking shelves. One can have an intellectual composition equivalent of The Winchester Mansion with stairs leading to nowhere and resuming in some strange locale like a drawing by Malcom Escher.

A Discursive Universe (poem)

 

The ocean seemed bottomless
except over space and time
where tectonics plates and distant shores
opened and closed like an accordion
played by a kangaroo

Variations on a crustal wave
mountains rising, falling, subsided and subducted
coated by vegetation
slathered with sunrises and settings
lives by the billions misled
willingly to wars like surface tempests
wherein biologicals strive and sometimes die

Wild oceans teaming with life
thrown into nets cast with poisons
toxins dumped into catch-alls
stars would notice
if they thought like distant AI units
with their own fusion power supplies

While the wonder of quantum fluctuations
of a theoretical unification theory
is a semblance
-a portion of reason to formulate a theory
of plank lengths, and meters in a fathomless sea
where nothing calculable surrounded a quantum microdot

The beginning of a relativistic bootstrap of virtually nothing
the continuum of everything being and becoming
a phenomenon within a void without end
breadth or depth comprehensible
wherein the temporal stars and planets
are the measure of meaning
for-itself never to be understood
though mathematical phrases reflect it.

Western Leadership May Always Be Recalcitrant About Truthful Peace Negotiations for Ukraine

 President Trump needs to resist calls from war mongers to place sanctions on Russia or restore weapons supplies to Ukraine.  My opinion for years was that Russia should share Ukraine with the Western government of Ukraine, dividing the country roughly along the Dnepr. So far Russia has failed to accomplish that goal while the west has been pure war mongering full-war ahead oriented toward Eastern military movement.

https://www.youtube.com/live/qhngetm_UvY?si=v3GWlLgs4kBFkX6e

Russia will not capitulate to attack;they took a beating from the Nazis and kept on ticking like Duracell batteries until they reached Berlin. President Putin has more modest goals, and capturing land that rightly should belong to Russia along the East Bank of the Dnepr is probably so far as that goes. The sooner Russia accomplishes that objective the sooner the war can end. No amount of PR grandstanding or conniving and levering will get that done. 

https://www.barrons.com/news/trump-blows-hot-and-cold-on-putin-with-ukraine-war-in-limbo-3c883bc2?refsec=topics_afp-news

The West seems to be happy itself to continue the war, so long as the U.S.A. and Russia pay for it. President Putin is not crazy to resist having modern Russia be converted into a rump state intimidated by the West and its queer values that concentrate wealth to global elites while letting the global ecosphere decay. President Trump may be drowning in cries from Western leaders to throw more bombs and missiles into the pot of Ukraine, and that would be hard to hear. He may have no supportive international allies that share a rational point of view on the conflict with him. 

If the west agrees to simple terms after the Russians accomplish primary goals with Ukraine and N.A.T.O. President Putin should sign off on peace readily I would think. The West needs to demilitarize Ukraine except for an adequate self defense force de frappe, eliminate all sanctions, demands for reparations etc and recognize full Russian sovereignty over it's occupied lands of East Ukraine.

Most likely the West will always be disingenuous with Ukraine negotiations as they want simply to own everything in it and perhaps the entire world too. hey will assure the worst possible outcome short of nuclear war and won't sue for peace until they feel threatened by Russian encroachment. It isn't that Europeans can't fight- they can, its just that few are stupid enough to fight an unnecessary, unprofitable war except with other countries lives and treasure. Becoming recondite and truthful is something one cannot expect. P.R. B.S. always follows the clownish negotiating positions they put forward publicly. That is a problem that people that believe they have absolute power and have no reason to make concessions of an sort are bound to have.

The Big Beautiful Boondoggle- Trump Trends

 President Trump has done a good job working many things. It is useful at this point to evaluate a few positions that seem to be causing him trouble.

One is the Bug Beautiful Tax Cut bill that would add 3.8 trillion dollars to national public debt. That definitely is the wrong way to go. It is a big budget busting boondoggle. It isn’t even remotely an ecologically sustainable approach either. President Trump should restore energy credits for non greenhouse gas emitting technologies or at least pursue new ways to reduce greenhouse gassing from the U.S.A. although that seems beyond his capability.

The leaders of both parties don't know what austerity is. The mind set of the prosperous isn't capable of recognizing that the present way of economics is environmentally unsustainable. The system cannot balance a budget and eliminate public debt even by undermining the security of the poor since they haven't got much to take away as it is. Pioneers of the nation could face tough challenges in economics- they had no choice of avoiding them, The trick is to be able to have that pioneer mind set while prosperous and to leverage that prosperity to jump from a melting iceberg form of economic drifting south onto one going in a different direction. Escalating competence in environmental economics may be a talent the prosperous aren't capable that frontiersmen found easy in the foundation of the nation.

Obamacare should be repealed and a national health care system for the poor and lower middle class created with direct provisioning of service by federal employees, The prosperous would be excluded. This really is the cheapest and most humanitarian approach.

Reaganomics had the fatal flaw of creating massive public debt, it was a good way to end the Cold War yet a stupid government always brings those sorts of things back to life. The Zombie war in Ukraine is a result of Clinton era dumb and dumber Russia policy designs.

Forty trillion dollars of public debt is just morally and practically dumb and unsupportable. The war in Ukraine can be wrapped up if President Trump recognizes those Russian free state annexations of the East Bank of the Dnepr, ends sanctions n Russia, and assures neutrality of west Ukraine so far as to make it a non-military threat to Russia. President Trump seems to be willing to kick the can down the road on that however, as he is with his Big Beautiful Boondoggle bill.

Epicureans and Stoics Had Beliefs- True or Not

 Epicureans and Stoics were both believers in a god or gods. Stoics believed in a divine principle or Logos and Epicureans leaned toward an identity as Deists. The actual beliefs of ancient Greek philosophic schools are different from those of modernity generally. Some of the ancients would be closer to Spinoza paradigmatically. They tended toward regarding god as a divine principle or power in back of everything, if they weren't polytheists. There isn't much of a relationship, if any, between those ancient schools and modern people of faith or of those that aren't. There are no simple answers in the field. One may of course compare and contrast ideas in a secular sense, phenomenally. That too generates synthetic ideas for-oneself and not necessarily an objective sense of what is true concerning various kinds of faith.

Words and Objects; Languages References and Epistemology

  Let me comment on the topic of the relationship between word and object. The phrase Word and Object was the title of a book by WVO Quine. ...
