The left lie to themselves all the time - so lying to others comes naturally - they are like many women. 

Just like women too, their sense of self is completely askew, and they have no concept of accountability for their actions or lies.

 

This is true. 

Get a grip.

This is an opinion of one person. It does not represent US foreign policy. The author is a member of the US Federalist Society. Trump loathes the US Federalist Society.  The opinion does not represent Trump administration policy.

He can't levy anything on an individual EU country. The EU works all its trade deals as a block. 

 

 

What?

Anyone familiar with my posts knows I am no fan of the tangerine traffic cone of treason. However, any time I see a reference from "MSN" I shut it out of my mind. It's been documented they lie almost as much as Fox.

MSN is an aggregator and like Yahoo and others does not originate any content.

 

In the OP link to MSN, MSN notes that the source is Dagens.com from Denmark.

BTW.....this was so leaked, the "memo" was posted on Substack on May 27,2025.    You should be embarrassed for falling for the headlines. 

Thats what these guys always do, there isnt any embarrasment,  they jUST move on to the next headline the MSM gives them.

They raided Trump because he refused to give back Presidential records, and also was caught on camera hidding them. So he clearly showed intent which is a necessary condition, as Hur explained clearly.

 

But don"t let truth get in the way of a good MAGA fact distortion story! 

Absolute horse shi

No surprise with Trump having white supremacists / Christian nationalists as advisers. The  policy has already started with Trump placing 50% tariff on Brazil (interference in domestic affairs) in support of a far right President removed from power.

 

President Donald Trump announced that he plans to impose a 50% tariff on Brazil, citing in part the treatment of former President Jair Bolsonaro, a political ally.

 

Leaked U.S. Memo Reveals Trump Plan to Overthrow European Governments

I can not believe you use Trump to blame in your OP. When clearly the story said (Titled “The Need for Civilizational Allies in Europe”, the document was written by Samuel Samson, a senior adviser in the U.S. State Department.)

Why do you spread lies and use any story to attack Trump. I am sure almost every country in the world has m people writing similar memos.

He wouldn't last 5 minutes at Prime Minister's Question Time. 

Question 1.

PM, you said you would end the Russian Ukrainian war in 24 hours. 

What happened?

Question 2

During the recent discussion with the South African PM, you either lied or showed false information regarding graves of white farmers by the roadside as well as other information which wasn't related to South Africa at all.

Do your frequent lies embarrass you?

An end to the war isnt wanted by the EU politicians and weapons manufacturers. you and all the other keyboard warriors also dont want an end unless it is on your terms, which, as a losing side, will never happen.

Re the graves, you should checknwhat was actually said, and not as usual believe the MSM, they have purposely misreported what was actually said.... AGAIN.

PS, how are your Zimbabwean friends doing? Not seen you mention them since that first thread.

There is so much wrong about this whole story

the MSN article is a partial reprint of a Dagens article that is a partial reprint of an EUobserver article

Each step along the way it is not quite the same, spinning narratives but never revealing the source of the story. Notably is the addition of Geert Wilders who does not appear in the original document. Can't be bothered to dig much deeper on all the details, except it is not a "Leaked Memo" and it does not call for the "overthrow" of any government, it is a publicly available on Substack.

The United States has attempted to bring about regime change—covertly or overtly—in numerous countries since World War II. These efforts have ranged from CIA-backed coups to military invasions, economic destabilization, or political support for opposition groups. Here’s a categorized list:

 

Covert or CIA-Backed Regime Changes

 

Countries where the U.S. covertly helped overthrow or undermine governments:

Iran (1953) – Operation Ajax: CIA overthrew Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh after he nationalized oil; reinstated the Shah.

Guatemala (1954) – CIA ousted President Jacobo Árbenz over land reforms and United Fruit interests.

Congo (1960–61) – Helped remove and indirectly enabled the assassination of Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba.

South Vietnam (1963) – U.S. backed the coup that led to the assassination of Ngo Dinh Diem.

Brazil (1964) – Supported military coup against President João Goulart.

Chile (1973) – CIA supported military coup that deposed elected President Salvador Allende, brought Augusto Pinochet to power.

Argentina (1970s) – Backed military dictatorships during the “Dirty War”.

Uruguay, Bolivia, and others – Supported coups and dictatorships during Operation Condor.

⚔️ 

Military Interventions

 

Regime change through direct military force:

Grenada (1983) – U.S. invaded and removed a Marxist military government.

Panama (1989) – Overthrew Manuel Noriega during Operation Just Cause.

Afghanistan (2001) – Removed the Taliban from power following 9/11 attacks.

Iraq (2003) – Overthrew Saddam Hussein under the pretext of WMDs.

Libya (2011) – U.S. and NATO backed rebels and airstrikes leading to the fall and killing of Muammar Gaddafi.

🧩 

Unsuccessful or Attempted Regime Changes

 

Failed or ongoing efforts:

Cuba (1961–present) – Bay of Pigs invasion failed; decades of embargo and support for dissidents.

Vietnam (1950s–70s) – Prolonged war to prevent communist rule; ultimately failed.

Nicaragua (1980s) – Backed Contras against Sandinista government (led to the Iran-Contra scandal).

Venezuela (2002, 2019–present) – Supported attempted coup against Hugo Chávez and later Juan Guaidó’s claim against Nicolás Maduro.

Syria (2011–present) – Supported opposition groups against Bashar al-Assad, including covert CIA program Timber Sycamore.

Ukraine (2014) – U.S. supported pro-Western protests; Russia accused the U.S. of orchestrating the ouster of Yanukovych (disputed).

Iran (ongoing) – Cyber warfare, economic sanctions, and support for opposition, though no open war.

The headlines don't exaclty match the contents of the memo. 

 

Thanks for the link. Generally the content provides me with little comfort and often reflects the memes of todays Far Right / Christian Nationalism as evidenced in Trumps and members of his team comments

And everyone lived happily ever after!

 

Well, except for the hundreds of thousands who died, were tortured, thrown out of helicopters, etc......

 

Well, you can't make the world safe from democracy without breaking a few million civilians!
