Silicon Bites Ep420 | 2026-10-12 | Washington squeezes the victim, rewards the aggressor. Trump lies about a fictitious energy ceasefire agreed by both sides. There was no such agreement, Ukraine was not involved in any such discussion and Putin answers by bombing Kharkiv’s power plant within hours. Some of you may still be clinging on to the forlorn hope, the delusion that this is about elections, politics, prices of diesel at the pump. No, it’s clear that Trump wants the war over, in a way that he can benefit from financially. And if that can’t happen, he’d like to grift from it even before its over. If the second hypothesis is the reality, then we must expect many more terrible things to come from Trump’s regime. This could include the shutdown of intelligence to Ukraine, the closure of the PURL arms for money program with Europe, as well as pressure to hand back the frozen Russian assets sitting in various jurisdictions, but mostly Belgium’s Euroclear. Allies could also be pressured to stop supporting Ukraine. Friends in Ukraine have circulated a very black joke, that the U.S. will provide its remaining Patriot PAC-3 interceptors to Russia to protect its refineries. But in this made world, it may not be a joke for long.
