Trump's Ukraine 'Minerals' Deal Could Be the Most Corrupt Thing I've Ever Seen - Paul Warburg



Donald Trump's negotiations to end the war in Ukraine have climaxed in a so-called "rare earth minerals deal". But the truth of the deal is that it is anything but that. I read the actual text of the document, and much of what I read didn't align with the things Trump and his team had said about it.

In this video, I look at all of the pieces carefully and uncover the high risk for corruption in the deal structure that Trump is proposing Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy should sign this Friday to help lead to an end of Ukraine's war with Russia.

Here's the text of the deal so far:

Talk about history repeating itself, can you say Haliburton? The criminals, large corporations, are saying 'I want in on the hundreds of Billions that are going to be spent on the rebuilding of Ukraine'. It's all about paying your corporate overlords for financing your election. trump has to pay off the billions of dollars that it took to get him elected and he is slowly selling our country to pay for his election. The worse thing is that our "corporate media" isn't going to tell you the truth because they want their cut of the billions in tax breaks. Our media is for sell and it didn't just start with trump don't be lazy wake up and smell the coffee.
