Vance’s Munich speech matched many of the issues long promoted by Russia including anti-migrant rhetoric, curbing abortion and equating “cancel culture” with free speech infringement.

Alexander Stubb and other European leaders at the final day of the Munich Security Conference on Sunday sought to firm up how the European Union can move from talk to more action and stay relevant as Washington pushes to stop the fighting.

Sunday's election comes as Germany and the rest of Europe grapple with the new Trump administration, the Russia-Ukraine war and security across the continent. Election workers in Munich are preparing to count postal votes by spreading pink envelopes on a big table.

MTG announced in November, 2024 she would be the chair of the DOGE oversight subcommittee. After the announcement, MTG bought shares in Tesla. Does anyone think she can conduct oversight of Elon Musk and DOGE, while having a financial interest in Musk’s company? Yes, I know all Congressmen own stock. But did they buy that stock after they become aware of whom they oversee? Vice President Vance stated, “Shutting people out of the political process protects nothing.” This was in his speech in Munich. But he, his boss and his party are intent on revenge and retribution of their political enemies as to shut them out of the political process. The Trump/Putin “peace talks” to end the Ukraine war started by a Russia will exclude Ukraine. Trump wants Ukraine’s rare earth minerals as “payback” for providing military equipment to fight a communist foe. He didn't ask Israel for “payback” for weapons used to defend itself against Islamic foes intent on total destruction of Israel. By the way, Russia does not want to destroy Ukraine, just return it to communism. Trump used his influence as President to make money selling Trump coins and other Trump products. The offers, by e-mail, had the Presidential logo. Trump sold unregulated cryptocurrency, making millions, before signing an executive order to draft cryptocurrency regulations. Trump has a financial stake from LIV Golf, including tournaments at his golf courses. He used the Oval Office earlier this month to “negotiate” a merger between the PGA and Saudi Arabian LIV Golf, which will further his financial interest in LIV Golf. Jared Kushner got unrestricted billions from Saudi Arabia to invest in April, 2021. He left The White House Jan. 20, 2021. Negotiations with Saudi Arabia had to have started much earlier. Other than real estate, he has no investment management experience; Kushner has “earned” at least $80 million. The “Biden Crime Family” was investigated ad nauseum because it allegedly earned $10 million. The taxpayers paid unaccounted millions for finding nothing. Trump Jr. joined the advisory board drone maker Unusual Machines on Nov. 27, 2024. It sells drone products to the Pentagon. Trump Jr. owns 331,580 shares. The stock price immediately doubled. From 2013 to 2018, Hunter Biden served on Burisma's Board of Directors. Burisma does not sell anything to the U.S. government. It is not known if Hunter Biden owned stock in Burisma. Repeating from above, the taxpayers paid unaccounted millions for finding nothing in an ad nauseum investigation.

European leaders are meeting in Munich to discuss threats to global security. And they are not happy about the U.S. and Russia excluding them from the conversation about Ukraine.

The future of Ukraine hangs in the balance as U.S. officials head to Saudi Arabia to begin direct negotiations with Moscow over ending the war, leaving Kyiv and its European allies scrambling to come up with a strategy for their own security.
