⚔️ Google vs. US Government: MONOPOLY IN QUESTION

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is pushing for drastic penalties after a ruling last year declared Google’s search engine an illegal monopoly. The DOJ’s proposed solutions include banning Google’s lucrative deals with Apple, forcing the company to share user data with rivals, and even selling its Chrome browser, according to the Associated Press.

The government warns that Google’s control is harming the marketplace and stifling innovation, especially in the age of AI. The DOJ is also concerned that Google could use AI to further strengthen its dominance, the report added.

The hearings are expected to wrap up in late May, with a ruling anticipated before Labor Day, the report said.

👍📈👎Trump's approval rating drops to lowest point since regaining White House

Only 42% of Americans approve of Trump's activities as president, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll shows. That said, 57% disagreed with his decision to withhold funding from universities, and 66% said he shouldn't control national museums.

Interestingly, 75% of respondents — including 53% of Republicans — believe Trump should not run for a third term.

Nevertheless, Reuters notes that Trump’s current approval rating exceeds the levels Biden had for most of his term.

🚨Ukraine ‘WILLING’ TO CEDE 20% of land for ‘de facto’ recognition

Trump is set to unveil his peace plan for Ukraine within the next three days, with new details emerging about a potential peacekeeping force, according to The New York Post.

What does the reported plan entail?

1️⃣Deploying European forces to Ukraine could help end the conflict and enforce a ceasefire if a deal is reached.

2️⃣A separate peacekeeping force is also under consideration, consisting of Russians, Ukrainians, and a third non-NATO country to monitor the ceasefire.

3️⃣The US may be involved, not with "boots on the ground," but through monetary support alongside a third party.

4️⃣The US could recognize Crimea as Russian territory, The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday.

Russia sees no possibility for compromise on the issue of deploying foreign troops in Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov previously stated. The plans of some EU countries to send “peacekeepers” to Ukraine are a PROVOCATIVE MOVE designed to perpetuate false illusions in Kiev.

Soviet Union played ‘CENTRAL’ role in WWII victory despite West’s bid to rewrite history

Amid rising anti-Russian rhetoric in the West, former allies are actively seeking to minimize Russia’s crucial role in defeating the Nazis, University of Calgary Professor Alexander Hill told Sputnik.

“The bulk of the fighting was done on the ground by the Soviet Union. The bulk of German divisions were destroyed on the Eastern Front,” he highlighted.

Without the USSR’s ground war efforts, neither the US nor the UK would have likely gained a foothold on the European continent, Prof. Hill stressed.
