๐Ÿšจ BRICS is a threat to the dollar, US hegemony: Trump right to FEAR it ๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œClearly the US dollar is under threat from BRICS just by the fact that these countries trade among themselves in national currencies rather than the dollar,โ€ IR analyst Gilbert Doctorowโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ—ฃ Trump says all BRICS members to pay 10% tariff on exports to US

๐Ÿ’ฌ "If they're a member of BRICS, they're going to have to pay a 10% tariff just for that one thing," Trump said during a cabinet meeting.


Trump also stated that he believes BRICS was created to "degenerate" the US dollar and ultimately eliminate it as a reserve currency.

ะกooperation within BRICS has never been and will never be aimed at third countries, Moscow recently said.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that BRICS has been shaping the new order, replacing the outdated neoliberal model built on neocolonial practices with multipolarity.

๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฒ Pashinyan is removing opponents from political arena - expert

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œSamvel Karapetyan is just the first โ€” but certainly not the last [to be removed],โ€ Semyon Bagdasarov, a prominent political scientist and director of the Center for the Study of the Middle East and Central Asia, tells Sputnik, commenting on the recent raids on the offices of Armeniaโ€™s Electric Networks โ€” a company owned by businessman Karapetyan.


Fearing electoral defeat, PM Nikol Pashinyan โ€œis systematically removing his opponents from the political arena,โ€ the analyst adds.

Regarding the recent crackdown on the Armenian Church, Bagdasarov believes that Pashinyan seeks to bring the clergy under full state control, essentially creating โ€œhis own puppet synodโ€ to remove another obstacle to his political agenda.

๐Ÿƒ Ukraine-appointed officials and SBU heads flee Kherson โ€“ regional governor

The Kiev-appointed local administration, along with the heads of the local police and Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), have left Kherson and now manage the Ukrainian-occupied part of the region remotely, the governor of the Kherson region, Vladimir Saldo, told Sputnik.

๐Ÿ’ฌ "The Kiev regime loves to create virtual structures โ€” for them, appearances matter more than reality. The so-called Kherson regional and city 'military administrations' appointed by Kiev are based in Nikolaev, along with the local Gestapo branches โ€” the SBU, police, and prosecutorโ€™s office," Saldo said.

๐Ÿš“ FBI opens criminal investigations into Brennan and Comey โ€“ reports

The FBI has launched criminal probes into former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey for potential misconduct in the Trumpโ€“Russia investigation, including possible false statements to Congress, Fox News reports, citing DOJ sources.

๐Ÿ”น A declassified CIA review found Brennan pushed to include the discredited, Clinton-funded Steele Dossier in the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), despite internal objections.
๐Ÿ”น Brennan later testified in 2023 that he opposed its inclusion.
๐Ÿ”น The dossier was used by the FBI to obtain FISA warrants against Trump aide Carter Page.
๐Ÿ”น DOJ and FBI sources now view Brennan and Comey's actions as a potential conspiracy, expanding the scope of prosecution.
๐Ÿ”น Former DNI John Ratcliffe referred Brennanโ€™s conduct to the FBI.
๐Ÿ”น A 2016 CIA briefing revealed the Obama administration was informed of a plan by the Clinton campaign to tie Trump to Russian hackers.

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œThe deep state threw everything at him to prevent him from coming back to this big, beautiful White House behind me, and he prevailed, and the truth must come out,โ€ White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt responded.
