Endgame for Ukraine: America vs America

Endgame for Ukraine: America vs America

Hysterics at the Chinese balloon overflying the US – taken to volume 11 – through scrambling a hush-hush Raptor jet (F-22) to ‘pop’ it, and then bally-hooing the ‘pop’ as Raptor’s first ever ‘air-to-air kill’, may be a source for quiet derision around the world, yet paradoxically this seemingly trivial event may cast a long shadow over the US war-timetable for Ukraine. For it is the US political calendar that may yet determine what happens next in Ukraine – from the western side. Seemingly...

War Certainly Is A Racket

War Certainly Is A Racket

In 1935, Major General Smedley Butler’s seminal book “War Is A Racket” warned of the dangers of the US military-industrial complex, more than 25 years before the outgoing US President Eisenhower implored the world to “guard against” the same thing. One of the most decorated soldiers in US military history, Butler knew what he was talking about, famously writing that war is “…conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many.” While he lamented the loss of his fallen...

Attack of the Weather Balloons!

Attack of the Weather Balloons!

On Saturday, President Biden sent a USG fighter aircraft to shoot down… something over the Yukon in Canada. This is the third such alleged shootdown. The second one is said to have occurred on Friday over Alaska, according to the stenographic media. It “reports” what the government wants you to know—and in the case of the attack of the weather balloons, they want you to know virtually nothing—except it is the sinister behavior of those darn spy-obsessed commies in China. The “object” over the...

How We Can Stop the Coming War With Russia

How We Can Stop the Coming War With Russia

Twenty years ago this spring the US government was finally successful in lying us into war with Iraq. Administration after administration had sanctioned and bombed and even invaded the country, but finally 20 years ago next month the Bush Administration unleashed “shock and awe” to flatten a country that did not and could not threaten the United States.After eight years of battle in Iraq perhaps as many as a million innocent people died, either directly or indirectly, from Washington’s...

Persistent Delusion Among the American and NATO Defense Establishment

Persistent Delusion Among the American and NATO Defense Establishment

There are three recent articles I want to make sure you have read because they reveal the delusion that continues to afflict US military leaders, pundits and the establishment media. First up is US Army Gen. Christopher Cavoli, NATO’s Supreme Allied Commander Europe, who provided some surprising candor during a speech in late January to a Swedish defense conference but failed to comprehend what he was saying: The heavy casualties and massive ammunition consumption seen during the war in...

Sy Hersh and The Way We Live Now

Sy Hersh and The Way We Live Now

It is a clear indicator of the disappearance of freedom from our so-called western democracies, that Sy Hersh, arguably the greatest living journalist, cannot get this monumental revelation on the front of the Washington Post or New York Times, but has to self-publish on the net. Hersh tells the story of the US destruction of the Nordstream pipelines in forensic detail, giving dates, times, method and military units involved. He also outlines the importance of the Norwegian armed forces...

Push-button digital tyranny: U.K. introduces 'Britcoin' CBDC project

Push-button digital tyranny: U.K. introduces 'Britcoin' CBDC project

The U.K. government and the Central Bank of England have published a “consultation paper” that announced a coming digital pound called “Britcoin.” Britcoin, the current nickname for the Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) project, is a product of the U.K.’s “CBDC Taskforce” that was announced in April 2021. “At this stage, we judge it likely that the digital pound will be needed in the future. It is too early to decide whether to introduce the digital pound, but we are convinced preparatory...

The Best Speech I Never Gave

The Best Speech I Never Gave

[Note: I was going to speak at the Rage against the War Machine rally, scheduled for February 19 at the Lincoln Memorial, in Washington, D.C. For personal reasons, I will no longer be speaking. In short, I have decided to take one for the team. I wish all participants and attendees at this rally to have a very successful event, and hope that it can serve as the start of something even bigger down the road. This is the speech I was planning to deliver at the rally. I think it would have done...

The Biden Administration is Lying about the Chinese Balloon

The Biden Administration is Lying about the Chinese Balloon

Now that the hysteria surrounding the Chinese “Spy” Balloon I am hoping that logic and reason will take over and we will realize that instead of a NORAD failure that jeopardized national security, the wayward balloon was seized as an opportunity by the Biden Administration to display Biden’s prowess as a Commander in Chief on the eve of the State of the Union address. Of course the incompetents that surround the equally feckless Biden turned the incident into a dangerous clown show. Let us...

New House Resolution Says US Should Stop Sending Money and Weapons to Ukraine

New House Resolution Says US Should Stop Sending Money and Weapons to Ukraine

Enough is enough; the United States should stop aiding Ukraine financially and militarily. That is the stand of eleven House members who are the original backers of the Ukraine Fatigue Resolution in the United States House of Representatives. The resolution, introduced Thursday by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), declares that is the “sense of the House of Representatives” that the United States “must end its military and financial aid to Ukraine” and that the House “urges all combatants to reach...

Biden’s Navy Sabotaged Nordstream Pipeline

Biden’s Navy Sabotaged Nordstream Pipeline

Last September, the unelected EU apparatchik Ursula von der Leyen alluded to Russian involvement in the destruction of the NordStream pipeline. The EU Commission boss did not come out and directly accuse Russia. However, her remarks added to previous accusations by the EU that Russia was “using gas supplies as a weapon against the West over its support for Ukraine,” according to the British war propaganda conduit, the BBC. Earlier this month, the Daily Mail, owned by the 4th Viscount...

'Free Speech for Whom?': Former Twitter Executive Makes Chilling Admission on the 'Nuanced' Standard Used For Censorship

'Free Speech for Whom?': Former Twitter Executive Makes Chilling Admission on the 'Nuanced' Standard Used For Censorship

Yesterday’s hearing of the House Oversight Committee featured three former Twitter executives who are at the center of the growing censorship scandal involving the company: Twitter’s former chief legal officer Vijaya Gadde, former deputy general counsel James Baker and former head of trust and safety Yoel Roth. However, it was the testimony of the only witness called by the Democrats that proved the most enlightening and chilling. Former Twitter executive Anika Collier Navaroli testified on...

Setting the Record Straight; Stuff You Should Know About Ukraine

Setting the Record Straight; Stuff You Should Know About Ukraine

On February 16, 2022, a full week before Putin sent combat troops into Ukraine, the Ukrainian Army began the heavy bombardment of the area (in east Ukraine) occupied by mainly ethnic Russians. Officials from the Observer Mission of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) were located in the vicinity at the time and kept a record of the shelling as it took place. What the OSCE discovered was that the bombardment dramatically intensified as the week went on until it...

They're Not Worried About 'Russian Influence', They're Worried About Dissent

Being labeled a Russian propagandist all day every day for criticizing US foreign policy is really weird, but one advantage it comes with is a useful perspective on what people have really been talking about all these years when they warn of the dangers of "Russian propaganda". I know I'm not a Russian propagandist. I'm not paid by Russia, I have no connections to Russia, and until I started this political commentary gig in 2016 I thought very little about Russia. My opinions about the western...

How We Can Stop the Coming War With Russia

(Sales) Taxation is Theft

A group of House Republicans is supporting legislation that would replace federal income, payroll, estate, and gift taxes with a 30 percent national sales tax. The bill also eliminates the Internal Revenue Service, giving states the responsibility to collect the sales tax and send the revenue to DC.This deputizing of states to act as federal tax collectors violates the principles of federalism, especially since the plan forces states that have chosen not to make their residents pay sales taxes...

The Arsenal of Democracy Isn't

The Arsenal of Democracy Isn't

As I originally wrote in my July 10, 2022 article Wunderwaffe Du Jour: “The US military is not built nor equipped for protracted high-intensity conflict. Nor can it supply a depleted proxy army with the means to prosecute a protracted high-intensity conflict.” The incontrovertible reality is that the US and its NATO allies are presently incapable of supplying the massive material demands of modern industrial warfare, as Lieutenant Colonel (Ret.) Alex Vershinin articulated so well in this...
