Former US National Security Advisor John Bolton tells Times Radio’s Maddie Hale there’s “something wrong” with President Trump who isn’t “all there” in the head if he is constantly comparing himself to authoritarian figures such as Vladimir Putin.

ONE COULD SAY THAT THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH JOHN BOLTON WHO WANTS WAR, WAR WAR ALL THE TIME... AND THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH TIMES RADIO TO GIVE THE TIME OF DAY TO JOHN BOLTON'S  OPINIONS THAT HAVE NO VALUE EXCEPT IN A DUNNY VERTICALLY LINKED TO A RESERVOIR OF CRAP.

Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky is not ready for peace as he sees Washington’s involvement in negotiations on the Ukraine conflict as a bargaining chip, US President Donald Trump has stated, following a heated and unprecedented meeting on Friday.

Trump made the caustic remarks in a social media post after receiving Zelensky at the White house, where the two were expected to sign an agreement granting Washington access to Ukraine’s natural resources.

Zelensky’s visit to the White House was cut short after he got into a heated exchange with Trump and US Vice President J.D. Vance in front of the gathered media leading to Trump accusing Zelensky of “disrespectful” behavior in the Oval Office.

A press conference in the Oval Office with President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Ukrainian President Zelensky turned contentious after Vance slammed Zelensky for campaigning with former Vice President Kamala Harris. The chaotic meeting appears to have squashed Zelensky’s opportunity to sign a mineral deal with the US.

During the presser, Zelensky posed a question to Vance, “what kind of diplomacy JD” can you have with Russian President Vladimir Putin?

UK media have reported that senior Trump advisor Peter Navarro lobbied his boss to cut Canada out of the Five Eyes intel-sharing network. Navarro rejected the report. But given the harm the intel coalition has done to Trump, Americans and relations with allies, removing members or dismantling the organization wouldn’t be a bad idea. Here’s why.

Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish: Why the Five Eyes Alliance Should Be Dismantled

Rational people should share a sense of amazement that virtually all European political “leaders” and Western professional commentators appear to view with shock and horror: the possibility that the United States and Russia, the two major nuclear powers with the capacity to destroy human life, might have correct and co-operative, rather than hostile, relations.

One can understand why those financially and/or professionally invested in the for-profit Hate, Fear and War Industry, with its existential need for enemies and threats, would view a world at peace as unthinkable, but why should anyone else do so?

Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek has released an EPBC Act ‘Impact Assessment Report’ (IAR) to address the environmental impacts of constructing nuclear submarines at Osborne, Port Adelaide. A deluge of documents — the 200-page IAR with 750 pages of appendices — have been released for “public consultation” running till 17 March. However, the IAR fails to provide answers to community’s “right to know” on nuclear submarine accident risks and radioactive waste storage facing Port Adelaide.

Elon Musk has backed claims that Hungarian-American billionaire George Soros is spending millions of dollars in an attempt to block US President Donald Trump’s political agenda. 

The accusation comes after the US Republican Party narrowly passed a budget blueprint on Tuesday in the House of Representatives, leading to concerns that the outcome of an upcoming race for a seat in the Wisconsin Supreme Court could shift the balance of power.

The billionaire has backed claims that the Hungarian-born financier has been investing millions to squeeze Republicans out of Congress

On Thursday, former Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker claimed in a post on X that Soros has been trying to influence the Wisconsin vote in order to give the Democrats the upper hand in Congress.

The United States and Ukraine have finalized their agreement on rare earths and other natural resources, and Vladimir Zelensky is expected to sign the final document without further negotiations during his meeting with President Donald Trump on Friday, according to Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent.

Trump has repeatedly stated in recent weeks that the US wants to “get back”the money it has spent on military and financial aid to Kiev through an upcoming mineral deal with Ukraine. However, Zelensky had previously refused to sign the agreement without concrete US security guarantees for Kiev.

The first term Labor prime minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese, must go to the polls before the end of May.

Astute political commentators predict that Albo – as he likes to be known amongst those working class voters that he so unconvincingly pretends to represent – will select April 12 as the election date. That date would allow Albanese to cynically take advantage of an interest rate cut announced by the Reserve Bank last week – as well as enabling him to avoid handing down a budget before the election.

Another woke ‘Labor’ government is heading to its doom

President Donald Trump has said that British troops “can take care of themselves” when asked whether the US military would support them if the UK deploys forces to Ukraine as part of a potential peace agreement with Russia.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer met with Trump at the White House on Thursday, where they discussed a plan to reach what he called a “peace that is tough and fair.”

“I’m working closely with other European leaders on this, and I’m clear that the UK is ready to put boots on the ground and planes in the air to support a deal, working together with our allies, because that is the only way that peace will last,” Starmer told reporters after the meeting.

Donald Trump may have only recently re-entered the Oval Office, but his radical anti-climate ideas are on the march across the globe. 

A CORRECTIV investigation can reveal that politicians, think tanks, and economists are now spreading Trump’s ideologies in Germany – right up to the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and its leader Friedrich Merz, the front-runner in the race to be Germany’s next leader, with federal elections due to take place on 23 February. 

Who is Importing Donald Trump’s Anti-Climate Agenda to Germany?

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte on Thursday said western allies are preparing “billions more in aid” and working on security guarantees for Ukraine following a talk with US President Donald Trump. Rutte’s comments came as Trump met with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Washington. Follow our liveblog for all the latest developments.
