I almost don’t know what to say about Pete Hegseth’s social media post (see above). It is juvenile, counterproductive and dangerous. During my time living in Central America, I learned a very important piece of wisdom… i.e., The fish dies by its mouth. We need a...
(Read part 1 here) The decade of 2000 marked the start of Ukraine becoming a de facto member of NATO. It not only participated in all of the main exercises, but it hosted many. In fact, between 2000 and 2010, Ukraine is ranked in the top six of countries that hosted a...
This is the first of a three-part series on the history of NATO and US European Command military exercises with Ukraine. This shows how the West, acting like a camel, slipped its big nose under the Ukrainian tent as part of a long-term strategy to defeat Russia. While...
The boys and girls on Wall Street heaved a big sign of relief yesterday, with the stock market making historic gains, a welcome respite for the losses of the preceding days, when Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause in the severe tariffs, opting only to impose a 10%...
What surprises me is that many in Washington, DC and media are surprised by the failure of the latest phase of Operation Prosperity Guardian to quell the Houthis. As Homer Simpson is prone to say, “Doh!” Here’s the latest from CNN: US air strikes in Yemen...
The Commander of US forces in Europe (aka USEUCOM), General Chris Cavoli, was on Capitol Hill today testifying before the Senate Armed Services committee. His opening statement is a remarkable mix of candor, fantasy and pure unadulterated male bovine...
Charlie Foxtrot is a polite euphemism for a crude military term — Clusterfu*k. That describes the first scandal of the Trump Administration. Somehow, whether deliberate or accidentally, a Zionist journalist by the name of Jeffrey Goldberg was added to...
The much anticipated phone conversation between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin took place on Tuesday, as expected. There was quite a bit of propaganda flack flying about prior to the call… for example, the Ukrainians told the NY Times that Trump was going...
“Beware the Ides of March” is a famous warning from William Shakespeare’s play Julius Caesar. This day, March 15, marked the midpoint of the month and was significant because it was the day Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 BCE. March 15 marked the day...
Trump’s act is starting to wear thin. He tried this same gambit a month ago and, despite what appeared to be a genuine threat, he did nothing. I think the latest dire threat is to divert attention from the fact that Mr. Witkoff is in Doha, Qatar talking directly to...
I think Trump is sincere in wanting to broker a peace deal with Russia, but I do not think he has grasped the fact that Russia has no desire to end the war with Ukraine until it is defeated, along with NATO, or the United States accepts the conditions President Putin...
Ok. Sorry for the lengthy article, but the substance is important. If the Brits are laboring under the fantasy that they enjoy a special relationship with the United States, it is time for my British cousins to wake up. My thesis is simple: Donald Trump and...
Well, I was wrong again. I thought that Donald Trump’s scheme to take control of Gaza and send the Palestinians to some great, new homes in Egypt and Jordan was just a negotiating ploy. Nope. He is serious about it and persists insisting that it is a great idea and...
The diplomatic tango between Washington and Moscow is underway, but Trump’s promise to bring a quick end to the war in Ukraine on Trump’s terms appears more unlikely with each passing day. Prior to the conversation between the two leaders during the last four days,...
I owe Danny Davis an apology. I speculated during our conversation today that one possible explanation for Trump’s recent rant declaring that the Palestinians of Gaza would be relocated to Egypt, Jordan or some other countries was simply a negotiating ploy. I opined...
Yesterday, there were a number of “headlines” in the US media claiming all foreign aid was stopped—except for Israel and Egypt. But the Pentagon weighed in today denying that it affects Ukraine: “A Pentagon official confirmed that Trump’s executive order freezing...
Mr. President, I believe that the CIA is providing you inaccurate, false intelligence about Russia’s casualties and the condition of its economy. If you hope to realize your goal of opening negotiations with President Vladimir Putin to bring an end to the war in...
Judge Napolitano asked me a pertinent question today: Why are the persons released by Hamas referred to as hostages and the persons released by Israel as prisoners? I think the answer is simple: Israel and its supporters in the Western media control the...
Russian war correspondent, Marat Khairullin, has posted a terrific summary about the current status of Russian and Ukrainian forces on the battlefield. He writes: Victory is already in sight. Ukraine has lost the war. This is not even an axiom, but a ready,...
The phrase, Deep State, is now a staple of political vocabulary, but people who have not worked in the Washington bureaucracies, especially those tied to national security and intelligence, may not appreciate the meaning. I will try to define it for you. What I...
