@shanaka86 You speak of building infrastructure like it’s a child’s toy that will miraculously appear overnight. Energy is a game of supply and demand. Whoever has the equipment and supplies dictates the game.

BREAKING: JD Vance just confirmed US strikes on Kharg Island from a podium in Budapest standing next to Viktor Orban. Then he pulled out his phone mid-press conference to check an unread text from Steve Witkoff, Trump’s special envoy for Iran negotiations. Then he said the war will end very shortly and the US has tools in its toolkit it has not yet decided to use.
Most coverage is treating the Iran signals and the Ukraine signals as two separate stories. They are not. They are one move.
Vance credited Trump and Orban as the two leaders who have done the most to end the Ukraine war. He proposed Budapest as the venue for a leaders’ summit. He said Orban has been better than anybody at helping Washington understand what the Ukrainians need and what the Russians need to achieve peace. He accused EU bureaucrats of foreign election interference in Hungary five days before Orban faces voters.
Now hold both threads simultaneously. Orban is the only NATO leader with a documented direct channel to Putin. He is also one of the only European leaders publicly aligned with Trump’s transactional diplomacy. The Iran war has structurally removed Gulf energy supply from global markets for what the IEA calls the largest disruption in history. That removal destroys Russia’s primary leverage over Europe, which was energy dependency, because Europe is now scrambling for non-Russian, non-Gulf alternatives and building the infrastructure to never be dependent on either again.
The trans-domain move is this: the Iran war makes the Ukraine deal possible. As long as Russia held the European gas card, Putin had no incentive to negotiate. With Hormuz closed and Gulf petrochemical capacity destroyed for years, the entire global energy map is being redrawn. Russia’s gas leverage over Europe is depreciating in real time because Europe is being forced into permanent diversification by the molecule crisis, not by policy choice. The leverage that kept Putin at the table as the strong party is evaporating.
Vance is in Budapest because Budapest is the hinge. Orban talks to Putin. Orban talks to Trump. Orban hosts the summit. The Iran war provides the energy shock that restructures European dependency. The Ukraine deal follows because Russia’s negotiating position weakens with every week that the Gulf remains offline and Europe builds alternative supply chains it will never dismantle.
The Witkoff text is the tell. Back-channel negotiations with Iran are live. The 8 PM deadline tonight is real. If Iran concedes on Hormuz, the energy crisis partially eases and Russia retains some leverage. If Iran does not concede and the US escalates further, Gulf supply stays offline longer, the molecule crisis deepens, European energy diversification accelerates, and Russia’s position erodes further. Either outcome improves the conditions for a Ukraine deal.
Vance did not go to Budapest to boost Orban’s election. He went to Budapest because it is the only capital in Europe where you can simultaneously manage the endgame of two wars using the same energy lever. The Iran war is the forcing function for the Ukraine peace. The molecule crisis is the mechanism. Budapest is the node.
Watch what happens at 8 PM tonight. Then watch what happens in Kyiv next month.

@ChartrDavid If I even see a speck of pubic hair in porn, I’m out. Which is a shame because older porn is better than newer stuff.

I don't think you understand what Kamala just did.
Kamala Harris is the current Vice President of the United States.
The Vice President saying Trump is Hitler on the podium in front of the seal is essentially saying the Executive Branch of the United States of America supports and encourages violence against Trump and his supporters.
She just declared war on Trump and us.
Now you see why the Dod signed the directive declaring the military can kill US citizens on US soil two weeks ago.
