After a summit with Russia's President Vladimir Putin failed to secure a ceasefire, US President Donald Trump shifted his campaign to get a full peace agreement. Three hours of talks between the White House and Kremlin leaders at an Alaska air base produced no breakthrough but Trump and European leaders said they wanted a new summit that includes Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky.

In a Truth Social post, Trump called the summit a great and very successful day. European leaders supported the plan for a new summit, according to the US president. He said that the best way to end the war between Russia and Ukraine was to go directly to a peace agreement. He said he hoped the Zelensky meeting would lead to a Trump-Putin summit. Millions of people's lives will be saved, said Trump....

Superstruct Entertainment was acquired by KKR for approximately 1.3 billion. Superstruct runs over 80 music festivals in Europe and Australia, including big names like Snar, Field Day, Boiler Room, and Boardmasters. One of the most powerful investment houses in the world is KKR. KKR was founded in the 1980s by Henry Kravis and George Roberts, who used debt as a weapon to seize companies. They dismantle industries, loot pensions, and funnel assets into the hands of a small group. The hidden empire behind governments is behind KKR, a corporate arm of the same club. Artists, activists, and cultural institutions voiced strong opposition to KKR's investments in entities tied to Israeli settlements, weapons manufacturing, and controversial infrastructure projects. KKR and other private equity firms move into music festivals because they are not shopping malls or factories....

This is not new. Rap was hijacked in the late ’80s and ’90s, the latest chapter in a very old operation. Public Enemy, KRS-One, early NWA, was twisted into a glorification of drugs, crime, prostitution, and violence. This wasn't an accident. Executives with deep ties to Wall Street and private prisons knew that broken communities and rising incarceration meant profits. The result? Generations of young black Americans were destroyed by a lifestyle. Hypersexualization of children through pop music was the cause of Pop and the Death of Innocence....

If you want to understand what is happening in Europe, you need to know what was written 100 years ago. Practical Idealism was published by Richard von Coudenhove-Kalergi in 1925. The Pan-European Union was the first modern movement for a united Europe. What did he do? A post-national Europe ruled by an elite, with national identities gradually erased and replaced by a new population. The future population was described as being easily governable, stripped of tribal loyalties, patriotic feeling, or ethnic distinction. He praised the idea of a European elite composed of technocrats and financiers. Europe should be transformed from the top down by this ruling class....
