(ZeroHedge)—You know that President Zelensky is in trouble when even Democrats in the US are calling for new elections in Ukraine, at a moment that some Trump officials have issued comments strongly hinting they prefer to see new leadership in Kiev.
For example Maine Democratic Rep. Jared Golden has this week urged Zelensky to “call and win a new election” to “strengthen his hand” in negotiating a peace agreement to end the war. Golden said in the earlier Tuesday statement that Zelensky must “show the world he has the mandate” from the Ukrainian people.

Trump previously hammered Zelensky for being a “dictator without elections” – however, Ukraine’s parliament recently voted to uphold his ‘legitimacy’ – backing the martial law situation which constitutionally allows elections to be canceled and delayed indefinitely.
A new bombshell report has been issued Thursday saying that Trump’s team is actually engaging members of the Ukrainian opposition in secret – toward efforts in support of potential political transition in Kiev.
Politico writes, “Four senior members of Donald Trump’s entourage have held secret discussions with some of Kyiv’s top political opponents to Volodymyr Zelenskyy, just as Washington aligns with Moscow in seeking to lever the Ukrainian president out of his job.”
“The senior Trump allies held talks with Ukrainian opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko, a remorselessly ambitious former prime minister, and senior members of the party of Petro Poroshenko, Zelenskyy’s immediate predecessor as president, according to three Ukrainian parliamentarians and a U.S. Republican foreign policy expert,” the report continues.
Tymoshenko has confirmed that her team is talking “with all our allies who can help in securing a just peace as soon as possible.”
This is massive and will without doubt see relations spiral further, at least until Zelensky comes to the US administration with hat in hand. The White House wants a formal apology. But it seems the opportunity to willingly sign Trump’s controversial mineral deal has come and gone.
As for the content of these secret Trump admin and Ukrainian opposition meetings, Politico reveals:
The discussions centered on whether Ukraine could hold quick presidential elections. These are being delayed in line with the country’s constitution because Ukraine remains under martial law. Critics of holding elections say they could be chaotic and play into Russia’s hands, with so many potential voters serving on the front lines or living abroad as refugees.
“The Trump aides are confident that Zelenskyy would lose any vote due to war fatigue and public frustration over rampant corruption,” the report continues. “Indeed, his poll ratings have been in decline for years, although they have picked up in the wake of last week’s Oval Office brawl, when the Ukrainian leader was shown the door after being berated by President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance. The most recent poll shows Zelenskyy still comfortably ahead in the race for the presidency.”
Zelensky’s declining popularity is something that the mainstream media has kept silent on for at least the last year or so. There also remains significant domestic opposition to conscription policies which have seen recruiters taking harsh measures, in some cases forcibly rounding up young men on the streets to eventually send them to the front lines.
As for another potential rival for power, who might seriously challenge Zelensky, Political highlights the following:
His nearest rival, trailing him by more than 20 percentage points, is Valery Zaluzhny, a former army commander who is now Ukraine’s ambassador to Britain. Only 10 percent backed Poroshenko, who is known as the Chocolate King due to his confectionary empire. Tymoshenko garnered just 5.7 percent support.

In Washington, perhaps highest official to have come closest to actually calling for a change in leadership in Kiev is US National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, who told CNN last Sunday: “it’s unclear whether President Zelensky, particularly after what we saw on Friday, is ready to transition Ukraine to an end to this war, and to negotiate and have to compromise.” Waltz then said that “we need a leader that can deal with us, eventually deal with the Russians, and end this war” – in remarks that hinted strongly at political transition soon.

How to Prepare for Food Emergencies if You Don’t Have a Homestead or Bunker
In an unpredictable world, where supply chain disruptions, natural disasters, or economic instability can strike without warning, having a reliable food supply is more than just smart—it’s essential for survival. Whether you’re a “prepper” or not, we all know the golden rule: self-sufficiency is key. But what if you’re living in an apartment, working long hours, or simply don’t have the land to turn into a thriving homestead? Don’t worry; there’s a practical, effective way to build your food security without needing acres of soil or a fortified bunker.
The Ideal Prep: Building Your Own Food Empire
The ultimate dream for any serious prepper is controlling your own food production. Imagine waking up to a sprawling garden bursting with fresh vegetables, fruits, and herbs—tomatoes ripening on the vine, potatoes ready to harvest, and greens that provide nutrition year-round. Add in livestock like chickens for eggs and meat, and you’ve got a self-sustaining system that keeps your family fed no matter what chaos unfolds outside.
This approach isn’t just about calories; it’s about resilience. A well-maintained garden can yield hundreds of pounds of produce annually, while a small flock of chickens might produce dozens of eggs weekly. It’s empowering, cost-effective in the long run, and teaches invaluable skills like crop rotation, animal husbandry, and preservation techniques. If you have the space, time, and resources, starting small and scaling up is the best path to true independence.
The Reality Check: Not Everyone Can Homestead
But let’s face it—not all of us are in a position to go full homesteader. Urban dwellers might be limited to a balcony or community plot that’s far from sufficient for long-term needs. Busy professionals juggling jobs, families, and daily life often lack the hours required for daily tending. And for those in apartments, condos, or regions with harsh climates, raising livestock or maintaining a large garden simply isn’t feasible. Factors like zoning laws, soil quality, water access, or even physical limitations can make this ideal out of reach.
That’s where the frustration sets in. You want to be prepared, but without a homestead or bunker, how do you ensure your pantry doesn’t run dry during a prolonged crisis? The good news is, you don’t have to sacrifice your preparedness goals. There’s a smart, accessible alternative that bridges the gap: investing in high-quality, long-term storage food.
