Unsolicited suggestion for the Second Trump Administration: A "Blessed Are the Peacemakers" delegation to Budapest

(In light of Trump's triumph and the attendant slackening in the censorship and criminalization of we the majority, I am for the first time in some time hopeful that my words might be read by eyes other than mine, hence the brief post following.)  

Trump tells us to "Dream Big, Again," so here goes.    
 
A "Blessed Are the Peacemakers" delegation led by J. D. Vance and including Robert Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and preferably also Elon Musk and Tucker Carlson, to Budapest in Hungary, happily hosted by Prime Minister Orban, and maybe even before Trump's Inauguration, to meet a delegation from Russia led maybe by Foreign Minister Lavrov, with the object of considering a Grand East-West Security Accord, to foreclose on world war and nuclear holocaust and to establish the security and stability we ought to have established at the close of the Cold War, but wouldn't.  
  
(Tucker Carlson and Elon Musk both are adored in Russia.) 

I'm a Russia-watcher, and everything we think we know about Russia today and about Putin, is a lie. Since his rise to power a quarter-century ago, Putin has wished for a mutual security arrangement among Russia and America and Western Europe, and even now, after all we've done to Russia, and all we've claimed and threatened against Russia, Putin wants peace with us still.  
  
Beyond which, it does seems that in just these last months Russia has gotten to be the single-greatest outside influence on North Korea and on Iran — it may even be that the Iranian strike against Israel lately was restricted to military targets for the reason that Russia wouldn't abide attacks on Israeli civilians — so that if we came to terms with Russia then we might at the same time simplify our difficulties with Iran and North Korea.
 
Trump might bring peace in the here and now, and some assurance of peace beyond his time, and at the same time unwind the troubles in the Mideast and Korean Peninsula.

De-indexed

Sometime in 2023, evidently, this little blog was what is termed "de-indexed", that's to say, it cannot now be found on Google. Half a decade before, the blog was "shadow-banned", flagged for burying at the bottom of the heap in Google's search results. At the time of the shadow-banning my readership was strangled to a few stragglers, and since the de-indexing I've been denied even my stragglers. And inasmuch as nearly all my traffic owed to search engines, there has been since last year no practical purpose to my posting to this blog.


We call it "Big Tech censorship", but that's not strictly accurate: it's been established by now in court that internet censorship in America is directed by the FBI and CIA, the Homeland Security and State Departments, and the Biden White House, etc., notwithstanding that such censorship is forbidden by the first amendment to the Constitution and first provision of the Bill of Rights. Because this is post-democracy. 


As to Google, it used to be that Google's motto was "Don't be evil"; they've forgotten the "Don't". And as to me, I've applied myself to undertakings beyond the scope and reach of this or any blog. Under a pseudonym.
