A Panicked Empire Tries to Make Russia an ‘offer It Can’t Refuse’

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Those behind the Throne are never more dangerous than when they have their backs against the wall.

Their power is slipping away, fast: Militarily, via NATO’s progressive humiliation in Ukraine; Financially, sooner rather than later, most of the Global South will want nothing to do with the currency of a bankrupt rogue giant; Politically, the global majority is taking decisive steps to stop obeying a rapacious, discredited, de facto minority.

So now those behind the Throne are plotting to at least try to stall the incoming disaster on the military front.

As confirmed by a high-level US establishment source, a new directive on NATO vs. Russia in Ukraine was relayed to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken. Blinken, in terms of actual power, is nothing but a messenger boy for the Straussian neocons and neoliberals who actually run US foreign policy.

…The Washington Post’s old school Moscow-based correspondent John Helmer has provided an important service, offering the full text of Blinken’s offer, of course extensively edited to include fantasist notions such as “US weapons help pulverize Putin’s invasion force” and a cringe-worthy explanation: “In other words, Russia should not be ready to rest, regroup and attack.”

Good article, well-worth reading. The US/NATO neocon failure in Ukraine illustrates the true nature of power in USA and the West. The gang in control does not know how to do anything except seize control of institutions and extract resources from them. They have no interest or any idea how to run a society so that it can flourish and remain prosperous. Ukraine today is a warning sign of what will be Europe and USA tomorrow. ABN

Bioweapons at the root of Deep State Ukraine War

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

 Now that I have everyone’s attention, allow me to address why US establishment politicians are sending tanks, jets, weapons, equipment, and $100+ billion to Ukraine.

It has nothing to do with Ukrainian citizens, and everything to do with Deep State assets/secrets in Ukraine.

2) Let’s go back to when and where it all began.

Flashback to 2005. Then Senator Obama and Senator Lugar visited former Soviet biological and chemical facilities in Ukraine, and established the US Deep State roots in Ukraine.

To “counter bioweapons”.

Demand for funeral facilities soars as the covid tsunami continues: How many Chinese have died from the virus?

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

The number of dead from covid estimated in this video—up to 400 million—sounds incredible to me. This channel has no reason to lie about this, as far as I know. Conversely, official CCP covid death tallies sound just as incredible as so few are admitted. Is it even possible there are such high infection rates in China? What variant(s) are responsible? Why are these enormous numbers of infection and death not appearing in neighboring countries? As usual, there is no way to know for sure and plenty of reason speculate. Is Xi killing off his weakest people in preparation for war and hard times? Is he simply angry and deliberately spreading disease to save face for the failure of his zero-covid lockdown policies? Many in the West speculate that NATO and American neocons are preparing to attack China after they are finished with Russia. Xi must know this. Is he preparing for that? ABN

US four-star general predicts war with China in two years as he issues chilling memo to Air Force wing commanders to ‘fire a clip’ at a target and ‘aim for the head’ to prepare

  • The ominous warning was delivered Friday in a memo from four-star Air Force General Mike Minihan, who oversees its fleet of transport and refueling aircraft 
  • Sent to roughly 107,000 under his command, the official correspondence warns of the rising Chinese threat and instructs soldiers to prepare for the conflict
  • The message is the most dramatic yet from a military officer of the looming likelihood of a war over Taiwan, a crucial ‘choke point’ in the South China Seas

Here’s Why the Big Club and People Managing Ron DeSantis Hate Donald Trump

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

President Trump transmitted a message to congress, warning them not to cut Social Security and Medicare {Direct Rumble Link}.  Many politicians and pundits will look at Trump’s position from the perspective of it being good to campaign for older voters, but that’s not the core of his reasoning.

In 2016 CTH was the first place to evaluate the totality of President Trump’s economic policies; specifically, as those policies related to the entitlement programs around Social Security and Medicare.  We outlined the approach Trump was putting forth and the way he was approaching the issue.   In the years that followed, he was right.  He was creating a U.S. economy that could sustain all of the elements the traditional political class were calling “unsustainable.”

Before getting to the details, here’s his video message and policy as delivered yesterday.

Fortunately, we do not have to guess if President Trump is correct. We have his actual economic policy results to look at and see how the expansion of the economy was creating the type of growth that would sustain Social Security and Medicare.  This was/is MAGAnomics at work.

Ukraine Rocked By Corruption Scandal, Wave Of Top Officials Resign: Sports Cars, Mansions & Luxury Vacations As People Suffered

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

The Ukrainian government on Tuesday confirmed the resignation of multiple high ranking officials amid large-scale corruption allegations, in what’s being called the biggest mass resignation and graft scandal since the Russian invasion began.

Some dozen officials have quit their posts after a huge political shake-up over allegations and probes into cases ranging from bribery, to mismanagement of aid funds for purchasing food, to embezzlement, to driving expensive cars while common people suffer under wartime conditions.

A top presidential adviser and four deputy ministers – among these two defense officials, along with five regional governors were forced out of their posts. And among the regional governors to step down included officials overseeing regions which have seen intense fighting, including the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, where Russian forces have lately reported gains.
