    Joe Biden vows not to pardon his son. Perhaps he will and maybe he won’t, but since Joe Biden is the embodiment of pathological deceit and heartless psychopathy I am sure he will do whichever of the two that he and his strategists consider to be politically expedient. It’s not as though he hasn’t done things like that to his doomed son since the hapless child was born. Can you even imagine what it would be like to have a demon like Joe as your Dad?

    Thanks to Doc Robinson for finding this update on the diminishing Eisenhower Task Force location last night:

    Aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69) and Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Gravely (DDG-107) are operating in the Red Sea.

    Another article says the USS Mason left the Red Sea via the Suez Canal on June 7.

    Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Mason (DDG 87) transited the Suez Canal and entered the Mediterranean Sea, June 7, 2024.

    “GOP Lawmakers Seek To Block US Funding For Rebuilding Gaza

    Now there’s an interesting idea. Why would we? Oh yeah: because out bombs leveled it. But if we rebuild it, we profit and control it. Or Israel. But if we don’t it stays flattened. Hey, there’s a great lesson on why you should never have gotten involved in the first place?

    “The Washington Post Makes Last Plea to Keep the Laptop “Conspiracy Theory” Alive

    WaPo thinks the US Government’s legal department is part of a Russian Disinformation wing, who doesn’t know what they’re talking about. RussiaRussiaRussia is running the entire U.S. government, and sinking the President via his son. Yup. That’s totally way easier to believe than the normal, that some guys do drugs and politicians are sometimes self-serving and dishonest.

    ““It’s not a question if congress has jurisdiction over the Supreme Court, it is what power are we going to exercise” AOC

    Great presentation! really finally on point. However, as with most things, she’s a retard and totally wrong, has no idea what she’s talking about, and is embarrassing everyone. I’m sorry you have to have basic competency in both skills, but there we are and it’s not that hard, or didn’t used to be. Supreme Court Ethics crisis? Did I miss something? RBG wanted sex work to be legal, and the age of consent to be 14. And you’re calling a crisis now? USSC required an amendment to outlaw alcohol, but next year no amendment to outlaw drugs, and you’re calling a crisis now?

    …Soooo, what you’re telling me is, you’ve mapped out that you’re about to get slapped in court, because something is about to happen that drags you all there. What? Brunson? Where you all refused oaths of office because you’d already sworn blood oaths to Hydra or the CCP? Otherwise why pick on Justices and try to get them kidnapped and shot, for a flag from 1700, 100 YEARS before even the Revolution? “The flag is the official maritime ensign for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, though the script was removed in 1971” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pine_Tree_Flag How dare he? Everyone knows Massachusetts is a NeoNazi State. Yup, that’s about the level now.

    “would these cases have been tried at all if we weren’t five months away from a presidential election?”

    Meta-Meta context is these two cases are entirely equivalent. Are they?

    “Is Congress’s $17 million sexual misconduct hush money fund campaign finance violations?”

    You need to ask? Yes, of course. But the jurisdiction is the “State” of D.C. entirely run by Congress, so how can Florida sue? Hahahahaha! Forget I asked! Hire Bragg and and he’ll make up something, no problem! “The Law is in My Mouth.”

    “new Trump hoax today: Trump said he doesn’t like Milwaukee.”

    Because Trump is so popular in Milwaukee? And the people who would vote for him believe the media?

    Yes the Early Warning Radar is extremely disturbing. It does say first strike and is IN RUSSIA. They are of course trying to start WWIII as that is the only thing that will save them. They’re going to keep trying.

    “• West Has Declared ‘War Without Rules’ On Russia – Medvedev (RT)

    Kind of. But this means Russia is signaling they are at the next level.

    MacGregor: “The Europeans are scared“. Well F’ing good! It’s about time. You wanted US to go fight this, FOR YOU, so YOU could get all those yummy resources that would stop your collapse for being lazy, selfish, fascist, tyrannical dickweeds. People tried to tell you, you laughed. So here, we’re giving you EXACTLY what you wanted: you win. You’re the boss, tell me where to point this broom in the train station. YOU are the competent, I just take orders.

    NOW you think a war is a bad idea ‘cause you’re like 100 miles away and we’re 6,000? No s—t.

    “Russia could trigger a war in space, wage a psychological warfare campaign against Western citizens so that they “tremble under blankets in their cozy homes”

    Nah, that’s impossible. Because that would be real and we would deny or not understand it. Same as telling a 3-year-old.

    “forced the Moscow Stock Exchange to suspend all trade in the US dollar and the euro.”

    With perfect timing, the world is safe again. As the US$ and Euro collapse, Moscow and half the world are now completely isolated or as isolated as can be arranged. They asked: “We’ve never had a worldwide fiat currency, with a fiat currency collapse. Always before in Weimar, one area collapsed while the nearby nations kept stable currencies.” Challenge Accepted. Problem Solved. WE have the “worldwide” fiat currency. THEY, the BRIICS and entire Global South – most of the world – do not. So thanks almost exclusively to sanctions, THEY will survive and we can re-kick-start by leveraging off them. Okay by me. We would probably do it anyway, figure something out anyway, but I love having several hard backup plans.

    Again WE are the ones arranging this. FOR Moscow, whether they want to or not. WHY? And WHO? Who SPECIFICALLY said to do this – when it totally won’t work as a sanction and is laughable – and do this NOW, not two years ago? Sus much?

    Continuing that MacGregor, just reminding that ALL DONBAS is “Russia”, legally, to them. We are already attacking “All Russia” in what we call “Ukraine.” Belgorod is of course different, we are referring to “1994 border Russia” and Russian behavior agrees: they are very sanguine about it, yes they’re in a war, things get blown up is their attitude. And yes, if UKRAINE were doing this – as their pointless drone attacks – they’re also very fatalistic. Of course that’s a sliding scale as OUR bullets and money and gas are in THEIR cross border attacks, so same thing, right? I’m saying Russia is being EXCEPTIONALLY generous and understanding of military and political reality here. However, since we are already over the line, they are giving us an additional DMZ to cross before the minefield, not placing it 6 inches from the survey flag, but a few meters over where dogs and cats won’t accidentally hit it. That line is with medium range, large-size missiles, into 1994 Russia. Easy to understand. That’s not one, two, maybe three violations all in one. As they’ve said, “Ukraine” is striking exactly nothing. We did not give our satellite intel and operations to Ukraine. These are 100% U.S. men, from orbit to the big boom, not a single Ukrainian anywhere, by definition. Americans won’t get that but courts will.

    “Ukrainian strikes anywhere inside Russia using Western-donated F-16 aircraft would not be an escalation of the conflict and would not make NATO member states parties to it”

    Stoltz better check International Law, pretty sure he’s mistaken on this. We can tell they plan to use the F16 as the trigger because – just like the nuke plants back when – they can’t help themselves but “Signal” it like true narcissistic sociopaths. The “Signaling” is the emotional, POWER part to them, it’s where they get their rocks off by showing they’re better than you, you’re helpless before their 80-pound majesty. Thanks, I guess. Thankfully God created the world so they have to do this and save us all, although sadly we’re such retards we generally disbelieve and ignore psychos when they say it. But IF we had any #Logos, and IF we had any sense, it would be super helpful and protect everyone so easy.

    Anyway, they’ve been “signaling” and tee-hee-ing they’re clever for months about this, playing “hide the salami” about where they are, thinking they’ll just spring an F16 with Moscow Nuke on it, or get Russia to overreact and “Start” a war they can sell back home. They are. By definition. Retards. They are embarrassing, retarded, mentally ill, glue-sniffing morons. No, Russia is NOT going to do that. Your plans are the plans of 5-year-olds, but since you’ve never talked to anyone outside of Harvard you don’t realize how infantile and moronic you sound. To the rest of us. Out here doing “work” in America. You couldn’t take an effective swing on a wino passed out on the street.

    ““..given the pledge is an “executive agreement” and not a formal treaty, it can be undone by future American administrations..”

    Exactly my point. So the SENATE confirmed this treaty? Then it doesn’t exist. We also don’t have the money, so good luck.

    Anyway, Duran, The U.S. finally got Europe on board with the plan NO LAWYER would approve: and we’re talking “Better Call Saul” level lawyers here. So the best they could do, and STILL got refusals from almost everybody, is to steal the INTEREST on the Russian money. $6B, whooptie-do, as the same glue-snorters ALREADY blew $200B and probably more. So it gets better: the PREMISE is, IF Ukraine wins, and IF Russia is completely erased, THEN they will be able to win war reparations in a UN (Western) court. Yeah, the idea of pre-reparations is laughable too, so, so many countries are still barely paying any reparations, like Greece, Poland, etc 100 YEARS later. They just ASSUME they win, then win, then win again. ‘Cause rich kids, amirite? Just like Congressional budget auditors just ASSUME we will grow at 8% compound with no recessions for 50 years and STILL Have a $1T / 100 days deficit. “We Make S—t Up!!”

    No. We all know that, that’s not the good part. What’s REALLY been stopping it is this: The U.S. wants a LOAN, say $100B against a mere $6B in assets. That’s what Trump and the Congress have been up to with the stall, although there are a lot of games at play. A lot of hooks and lines, trying to see who’ll bite. But the U.S. — now leaning Trump, just like Europe is – said “Hey, we’ve got to sell this to the people and you can see how hard. EUROPE needs to CO-SIGN the Ukrainian (illegal, confiscation) loan.”

    Europe was like “Are you f’ing stupid? Only a moron with a death wish would cosign a Ukrainian loan.” That was a month ago.

    Well son of a bitch, guess what? They got rid of that prosecutor and are signing that loan. As Ukraine is collapsing, right on schedule for the elections.

    Just like WWI and WWII? If they do – and Ukraine is already toast – then Europe becomes our b-tch again. They will have collapsed, and owe us the next cycle, like 50 years. NY/Wall St wins, Europe/Davos loses.

    …And that seems likely. Powell has no pivot. ECB has to cut rates. World capital flows more to the U.S. and Europe is a crater. Euro coup d’etat on the colonies (Us) fail again. And worse than 1812 and 1860, we get more independent from their banking system WHILE they have no oil, gas, or help, and they become Africa while we move into the techonoverse with China.

    Cosign that loan, you f-xxxers. Or concede Ukraine, NATO, and all European collateral honestly, I dare you. Reality Bites. Life’s hard but it’s harder if you’re stupid.

    “• Biden Needs More Bloodshed In Europe To Stay In Power – Zakharova (TASS)

    Biden’s not in power now, NOR would the situation in Europe have the slightest effect on American voters. We DGAF what you do, never have, never will. You never cross our mind, ever, if you disappeared, we’d forget. WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO??? Who? He’s talking not the the Euro-Elite, but directly to European VOTERS. The regular people. This is a story they can understand. End the war AND f—k America? Yes!!! Of course it’s more complicated than that, but anything that sells peace I can get behind, because it would take far too long to explain otherwise. Yes, “Get out from under America” (who is being run by Davos in Europe) and stop the war.

    “• Do The New US Sanctions Mark Russia’s Final Divorce From The Dollar? (Johston)

    Yes. And again, part II Duran: We are now sanctioning anyone-who-funds-anything. How? Well “We Make S—t Up” so we “just said” that “Russia is a war economy”. Therefore ALL things in Russia, like CocaCola, help the war effort. ‘Cause we said, just thought it in my mind a second ago. Therefore any BANK who talks to any company, who talks to any OTHER company, who talks to Russia, is sanctioned. Like our FISA warrants and 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon, EVERYONE is on that list, then we authorize every one of our friends, and blackmail everyone NOT our friends. Do YOU want to be our friend, Santander? Bob’s Regional Bank of Iowa?

    Okay, so what? No, no, no, this has nothing to do with any of that. We are sanctioning CHINA. This was all created, “We Made S—t Up” to attack all CHINA’S BANKS. All of them. In Huuuuuuuuge numbers. Because we’re broke and are going to steal all their money I’m-sure-they-won’t-mind or do nothin’. We are stealing, re-directing their capital flows here to forestall our utter bankruptcy. Capisce? Got it?

    So opening that war on China, which I’m sure we’ll totally win, being unable to win against 12 Yemenis in a hut. Who sank the Ike, prove me wrong or where is it? Proof of life, the Ike with today’s newspaper?

    Duran: Note THIS IS NOT DENIED. 5 or more days later. Total silence. If it’s fine, surely you would DENY it, right, Mr. US Navy? Heck, you deny things that are true almost daily, but not this? Funny ol’ world, and hiding in the middle of an ocean where you can be seen from space. Everybody knows. Now – I – don’t know, but every NATION knows. ‘Cause Iran has satellites there, and they know. And India too.

    “• Will Average Citizens Pay the Price for G7’s Theft of Russian Funds? (Miles)

    Kind of a trick question. We’ve ALREADY paid, since 1994 or 1974 or whatever. But will pay again? As the dollar drops 8:1? Probably, but is that bad if we get rid of all the parasites who steal 100:1, 8:1 will be a bargain and we’ll be rich again in no time. Just like post-war Germany when they got rid of their parasite.

    ‘..Ursula von der Leyen represents the old guard and everything which is wrong with the EU: deluded, outdated views run by elitists who believe the only solution to the EU’s power problem is to take more..”

    Interesting. She and the EU are BRAND NEW. They just invented it all yesterday. So what do you mean? There’s a real “Old Guard” hiding somewhere that jumps from ship to ship? I thought the EU was created to get rid of all that old corruption and influence, have you been lying to me? I feel so betrayed.

    “• Macron’s Coalition Sees Him as Liability Ahead of Feared Snap Election (Sp.)

    What was Macron thinking? Or his real brains that he uses on loan, Rothschilds Bank? This was so obvious it could be seen from space, NOR was it going to work NOR did anyone else in Europe, much less the U.S. support it. …And we all supported him more than the French People did.

    Is there a textbook on how to do everything wrong he’s been using?

    “The country is ‘deliberately’ evading the right to asylum”

    I sincerely doubt that as “Asylum” is by definition a very rare thing. It’s impossible for even 1% to be true “asylum” and for decades there was essentially zero asylum at all unless you were a Nobel Prize winner. So they’re not “Evading” asylum, they are using it properly according to law and not lying, an unforgivable offense.

    Any fine they give is a pittance, since like here they give $5k per person in cash AND use “free health care” AND encourage a million more applicants. Avoided applicants alone would overcome any fine, and that’s before you factor in crime and collapse of government. Nah, keep your money.

    • Joe Biden Vows Not To Pardon Hunter (RT)

    Uh, yeah, Odd or what? Explain? And none of us would pardon either, right? Hahahahaaha, no. Of course we would. So they’re up to something, Hunter OD’s and Biden slips out. They all meet in Vanuatu under witness protection. They are using the LEAST crime to get Hunter off the news, and avoid 100,000 counts of Presidential bribery, to say nothing of raping underage prostitutes, although admittedly, that’s in jurisdictions where that may be legal. Picking a crime that seems “Real” and picking a sentence that seems “Just”. Out of a hat, there are so many. So this is all a sales job, to us, the People.

    ““..a supposed “ecosystem” of citizens and organizations in the US, whose narratives “echo key messages of Russian propaganda..”

    Wow, great words. Super cool. Awesome. Um, is any of this TRUE? No? Mueller couldn’t substantiate a single word? Huh.

    Ah, the Korean thing is fun. Now with the internet, I see so many more second-rate comedy which is more like mean, political and not clever. It has to be BECAUSE of this, then this, then this. Cause and Effect. As lunatics with no life experience, they are insulated and their minds never work like that. In the previous cycle, only Canadians were all out comedians because they weren’t mean. Ah the good old days. Now they’re bad or worse, not mean, but the 0,1% political activists. NOTHING is more boring than making everything political, comrade. Buy razors is political now. No one is funny because so few are humanitarians and have generosity.

    The Fundamental Reason https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/the-fundamental-reason

    Alex Krainer (Do look at the other good parts. I just stole the end), It’s always about the collateral
    The relationship is deliberately obscured, so we must resort to dot-connecting, but consider this “dot”: in 2016, the Chilcot Inquiry into the British role in the Iraq war revealed, among other things, that six months after the 2003 invasion of Iraq, a consortium of Western banks led by JP Morgan extended a $2.5 billion loan to “help” Iraq’s economic recovery…
    ​..Not so long ago, Graham was giddy about the Ukraine war and thought that funding it was “the best money we ever spent.” At the time he was gloating that “the Russians are dying,” but in this last interview he mentioned the $10 to $12 trillion in critical minerals three times in under a minute. He doesn’t want Russia or China to have them and somehow he feels that it is up to him, most probably his donors.
    ​ Most importantly, Graham confirms the ultimate reason for war and unwittingly points the finger at the interest groups that are behind it. Wars are about resource wealth (duh!), and there is only one interest group who must secure access to that wealth by the force of arms: the international banking cartel. Their means and their opportunity may be more difficult to establish (though not that difficult), but their motive is crystal clear. Resources like Graham’s “critical minerals,” represent the high quality collateral against which banks can issue loans.​..
    ​..With regards to the 2003 Iraqi loan​ (backed by future oil revenues), it might have been only a coincidence that JPMorgan was also one of the biggest financial backers of the Bush/Cheney 2000 election campaign. At that time, nobody could have predicted that in 2001 we’d witness the 9/11 terror attacks which helped justify the subsequent invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq and the attempted capture of their resources. Nobody saw Condoleeza Rice’s “birth pangs of the new Middle East” coming. Most likely however, the whole toxic brew was well in the works long before the events began to take place.
    ​ Incidentally, that same JP Morgan also richly rewarded Sir Tony Blair for his own inestimable contribution to making the 2003 Iraq invasion possible: after the end of his term as Britain’s Prime Minister, JP Morgan hired him as an advisor on a $5 million/year contract.
    ​ For coincidence theorists, none of this should be too troubling since they know that our forces only go abroad to defend democracy, freedom and human rights, especially for women and girls. Of course, they are also there to fight the terrorists: we fight them over there so we don’t have to fight them over here. And you, dear reader, you are either with us or you are against us. At any rate, remember that we’ve always been at war with Eurasia.​ https://alexkrainer.substack.com/p/the-vicky-pollard-administration

    ​Who is really “backing” this “collateral”? G7 Leaders To Use Frozen Russian Assets To Back Next Tranche Of Ukraine Aid https://www.zerohedge.com/political/g7-leaders-use-frozen-russian-assets-back-next-tranche-ukraine-aid

    ​ Alastair Crooke, Israel and the Misjudgement of Reality
    ​ The core tension within the Western-Israeli calculus is that the U.S. and the EU are moving in one direction – back to the failed Oslo approach – whilst polling underscores Jewish electors firmly marching in the other direction.
    ​ A recent survey conducted by the Jerusalem Centre for Public Affairs shows that since 7 October, 79% of all Jewish respondents oppose the establishment of a Palestinian State on 1967 lines (68% were opposed prior to 7 Oct); 74% are opposed even in exchange for normalisation with Saudi Arabia. And reflective of the internal Israeli divide, “only 24% of left-wing voters support a [Palestinian] State without conditions”.
    ​ In short, as the western institutional leadership clings to the shrinking Israeli secular liberal Left, Israelis as whole (including the young) are moving hard Right. A recent Pew poll shows that 73% of the Israeli public support the military response in Gaza – albeit a third of Israelis complained it had not gone far enough. A plurality of Israelis think Israel should govern the Gaza Strip. And Netanyahu, in the aftermath of the ICC arrest threat, is overtaking Gantz (leader of the National Union) in approval ratings.
    ​ It seems that the ‘western consensus’ prefers not to notice these uncomfortable dynamics.​ https://strategic-culture.su/news/2024/06/10/israel-and-misjudgement-of-reality/

    ​ The deal commits Washington to ten years of arming and training the Ukrainian military, and which bolsters the military-industrial complex toward producing more of its own needs for the nation’s armed forces.

    ​ The West’s actions often run counter to the principles of the United Nations Charter, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.​..

    ​ Thanks Eleni in Athens. Fyodor Lukyanov: Here’s what the results of the European Parliament elections tell us​ , MEPs don’t call the shots, so any real change in the bloc will emerge from domestic upheavals
    ​ The main conclusion is that in the two largest EU countries – France and Germany – the ruling forces no longer enjoy popular support. Macron decided not to delay but to try to reverse the trend immediately, by calling elections with a three-week campaign. Berlin’s right-wing opposition – the CDU/CSU – also called for new elections, but this is highly unlikely.
    ​ Macron is taking a risk, but he is counting on the fact that citizens tend to vote differently in European than in national elections. In the first case, voting is an opportunity to express dissatisfaction with the authorities without risking anything, because the daily life of a European does not depend on what deputies in Brussels and Strasbourg do.
    ​ The second is to elect those who will form the government and on whom, therefore, their pockets depend. In national elections, it’s the managerial experience of the candidates that counts, and so-called populists usually don’t have these skills. As a result, the outcome of national elections is usually more favorable to the mainstream. This was the case under normal and stable conditions, but now we can only dream of those.
    ​ Macron put the Ukrainian issue at the center of his campaign for the European Parliament (to the point of promising direct intervention in the fighting). This didn’t mobilize voters. In Germany, the subject also played an important role, although it wasn’t central. The CDU, which was very successful, is even more pro-Ukrainian than the Social Democrats. However, the success of the Alternative for Germany and Sarah Wagenknecht’s new party shows that this line also has its opponents – both forces oppose arming Ukraine.​ https://www.rt.com/news/599154-european-parliament-elections-results-fl/

    ​ (More colorfully) Pepe Escobar, The Summer of Living Dangerously
    ​ So Le Petit Roi in Paris was predictably crushed in the European polls. He has called parliamentary snap elections, dissolving the Assemblée Nationale in an act of blind, puerile revenge on French citizens, de facto attacking French institutional democracy.
    ​ That doesn’t mean much anyway, because the lineaments of “liberty, equality, fraternity” have long been usurped by a crass oligarchy.
    ​ The second round of these fresh French elections will be on July 7 – nearly coinciding with the British snap elections on July 11, and only a few days before the slow-burning urban catastrophe which will be the Olympics in Paris.
    ​ Paris salons are ablaze with intrigue on why the little Rothschild stooge with a Napoleon complex is throwing all his toys out of the pram now because he’s not getting what he wants.
    ​ After all what he really craves is to become a “War President” – together with the Cadaver in the White House, Starmer in the UK, Rutte in the Netherlands, the Toxic Medusa von der Lugen in Brussels, Tusk in Poland, without having to answer to the French people.​..
    ..Bigger things though are in play. Following the – auspicious – game-changing messages to the Global Majority coming out of the St. Petersburg forum last week, anchored on openness and inclusiveness, the BRICS 10 meeting of Foreign Ministers in Nizhny Novgorod carried the baton early this week.
    ​ Foreign Minister Lavrov stressed three key points:
    ​“The countries of the Global South no longer want to be dependent on the double standards of the West and its whims.”
    ​ “Everyone knows that the BRICS countries already serve as the locomotive of the world economy.”
    “We [at the BRICS FMs meeting] stressed the need for consistent efforts to create a new world order, where the equality of independent states will be the key.”
    ​ Now compare it with the shrinking G7 meeting later this week in Puglia in southern Italy: the same old song, from a “tough new warning” to Chinese banks (“Don’t do business with Russia or else!”) to vociferous threats against the China-Russia strategic partnership.
    ​ And last but not least, extra plotting to skim interest from the massive, frozen/stolen Russian assets with the intent of sending them to country 404; the Toxic Medusa itself announced that country 404 will receive €1.5 billion of the income from stolen Russian assets from the EU in July, 90% of it to buy weapons.​..
    ..By several metrics, Europe is about to implode/explode not with a bang but an agonizing whimper anytime within the next few months. It’s crucial to remember that the snap elections in France and Britain will also coincide with the NATO summit on July 11 – where Russophobia-fueled warmongering will reach paroxysm.
    ​ Among possible scenarios, some kind of false flag to be squarely blamed on Russia should be expected. It could be a Franz Ferdinand moment; a Gulf of Tonkin moment; or even a USS Maine before the American-Spanish war moment.
    ​ The fact remains that the only way these “leaders” across NATOstan plus their lowly MI6 agent in a green sweaty T-shirt in Kiev will survive is by manufacturing a casus belli.
    If indeed that happens, a date can be advanced: between the second week of July and the end of August; and certainly no later than the second week of September.
    October will be too late: too close to the U.S. elections.​..
    ..President Putin, before and during the St. Petersburg forum, elaborated on how “symmetric” Moscow’s response will be to attacks by Kiev using NATOstan missiles – already ongoing.
    ​ There are three NATOstan members which are supplying missiles with a range of 350 km and more: U.S., UK and France.
    So a “symmetric” response would imply Russia providing Global South nations with advanced weaponry – capable of causing serious damage to nodes of the Empire of Bases.
    ​ And here are the top candidates to receive these weapons – as extensively debated not only on Russian TV channels but also in the St. Petersburg forum corridors.
    West Asia: Iran (which already has them); Syria (badly needs them); Yemen; Iraq (would be very helpful to Hashd al-Shaabi) and Libya.
    ​ Central, Northeast, Southeast Asia: Afghanistan, Myanmar (these two were present in St. Petersburg) and North Korea.
    Latin America: Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua (just look at the current Russian foray in the Caribbean).
    ​ Africa: Central African Republic, Congo, Ethiopia, Somalia, Southern Sudan and Zimbabwe (just look at Lavrov’s recent African tour).​..
    ..And that brings us the jolly matter of a Russian naval force hangin’ out in the Caribbean, headed by the hypersonic missile-armed frigate Admiral Gorshkov and the Kazan nuclear submarine…
    ..Well, this naval force is obviously not there to launch WWIII. Martyanov explains that “while both can strike all of the Eastern seaboard of the U.S. and Canada, they are there not for that reason. God forbid if it comes to real WWIII there are plenty of Bulavas, Avangards, Sarmats and Yarses to deal with this horrifying business. No, both Gorshkov and Kazan are there to show that they can reach any combat ship or strategic sea lift vessel carrying any military combat set from North America to Europe in case of some nutjob deciding to try to survive a conventional war with Russia in 404.”
    ​ What’s even more intriguing is that after spending time in Havana, the naval force will remain in the Caribbean for a series of exercises – and will be joined by other Russian Navy vessels. They will remain in these waters until the end of The Summer of Living Dangerously. Just in case some nutjob has fancy ideas.​ https://strategic-culture.su/news/2024/06/12/the-summer-of-living-dangerously/

    ​ While the Establishment Survey did indeed report that 272K “jobs” were added, this number also included multiple job holders; stripping those out, we get that the actual number of “employed” workers plunged by 408K… which is also why the unemployment rate actually went up to 4.0% for the first time in over three years, despite this marvelous “increase” in payrolls. More importantly, it means that gap between the always upward sloping (and market moving) Establishment Survey – which counts the number of payrolls – and the flatlined Household Survey – which counts the number of actually employed workers – which hasn’t made a new high since late 2023 and is back to where it was last summer, is now a stunning 9 million, the biggest on record.​ https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/fed-chair-powell-admits-biden-admin-overstating-jobs

They also spin the shooting as due to “hate politics” (lone nut) rather than a political hit​…

He was able to leave the hospital on May 30 and is receiving outpatient treatment.​..

    ​ The Destruction of Julian Assange, Jacob G. Hornberger​
    ​ Last month, a British court gave Julian Assange permission to continue opposing the U.S. government’s attempts to extradite him to the United States to stand trial for violating the World War I Espionage Act. In truth, what U.S. officials are really targeting him for is that Assange, as head of WikiLeaks, had the audacity to reveal war crimes and other dark-side activities of the U.S. national-security state…
    ..Keep in mind that the Assange prosecution has much more to it than just inflicting harm on Assange. U.S. officials know that they have to send everyone else a message: “The secrecy surrounding our war crimes and dark-side actives is sacrosanct. Don’t ever even think of doing what Assange did. If you do, we will do to you what we have done to him. We will finish you. Even if you are ultimately acquitted, you will be an utterly destroyed individual at the end of the process.”
    ​ Thus, U.S. officials couldn’t care less about Assange’s latest judicial “victory.” They know that British officials will keep him rotting in their jail system until his appeals are finally resolved, if ever. Ideally, from the perspective of U.S. officials, Assange will die during the pendency of his forever appeals, in which case the destruction of his life and his subsequent death in prison will have served its purpose with its message to everyone else: “Don’t ever mess with us or we will do to you what we did to Assange.”​ https://www.lewrockwell.com/2024/06/jacob-hornberger/the-destruction-of-julian-assange/

    ​ USA Full Covid-19 Mortality Accountability – 1,256,200 Manmade US Deaths
    ​ The chart below shows the total impact of our poor decision making as a society, in terms of total mortality, and compares that mortality to the various wars and conflicts our nation has suffered. Of key note inside this death tally are the 688,600 deaths inside the Vaccine/Sudden/Long Covid tally. 95% of this metric resulted from the impact of the mRNA vaccine itself, with the remaining 5% attributable to primarily Long Covid.
    ​ Speaking with an actuary (40 years experience) at one of the largest insurance companies in the world saying the Mortality Statistics are being dramatically underreported and the actual numbers could be 10 times higher. The number of deaths by drug overdoses, suicides, homicides, traffic accidents, aggressive cancers (including colon cancers as young as 15), blood clots, myocarditis, enlarged hearts, strokes have dramatically increased since 2022.

    remember at the outset of the SMO in Ukraine one of the big western positions was Russia could not compete on the media narrative front?

    ” Moscow should “obliterate their energy infrastructure, industry, transport, banking and social services. Instil fear over an imminent collapse of all critical infrastructure,” – Medvedev

    what do you think the response will be to this? Is everything on Mr. Medvedev’s list part of the train wreck currently underway in the US? Will the current power brokers alter the current path or double down on maintaining dominance? Will less be contributed to the permanent war and more allocated to repairing and rebuilding infrastructure?

    Plant a single thought in the minds of a society and the leadership of a nation and allow them to accelerate their own demise as more resources are diverted away from critical infrastructure to maintaining and increasing control over wealth in the name of countering an implied threat.

    Today, the print edition of the WSJ ran an article titled “Yemeni Rebels Tie Up U.S. Navy in the Red Sea”.

    Since Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7, Iran-backed Houthi rebels have lobbed missiles, drones and other weapons at commercial vessels and warships nearly every day. Although most of the weapons have been shot down, at least 77 cargo ships have been hit, and one British-owned ship carrying 20,000 tons of fertilizer aboard was sunk.

    “Largely ineffective” reminds me of “mostly peaceful” or “safe and effective”:

    Though largely ineffective, the Houthi attacks have been able to disrupt shipping and keep the U.S. and its allies tied down, frustrating the Navy’s decades-old mission of keeping open the region’s critical sea lanes.

    The US Navy says it already shot about $1 billion of ammo in the process.

    The Navy says it has spent about $1 billion on munitions used in defending the Red Sea, conducting more than 450 strikes and intercepting more than 200 drones and missiles since November when the attacks began.

    The “U.S. defense industrial base” apparently can’t keep up with the demand:

    U.S. officials worry that the conflict is simply not sustainable for the U.S. defense industrial base, already strained by the demands for weaponry from Ukraine and Israel.

    “Their supply of weapons from Iran is cheap and highly sustainable, but ours is expensive, our supply chains are crunched, and our logistics tails are long,” said Emily Harding of the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. “We are playing whack a mole and they are playing a long game.”

    Dennis Kucinich warns of the automatic draft registration coming soon to every male aged 18-26 in the US (including non-citizens).

    Our government is planning a big draft, conscripting millions of young Americans for an even bigger war!

    I call to your attention a Democratic amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which was slipped into the almost trillion-dollar Pentagon war spending bill, by voice vote, in the House Armed Services committee.

    The Democratic Amendment to H.R. 8070, the National Defense Authorization (NDAA) reads:

    Section 531. Selective Service System: Automatic Registration. SEC. 3. (a)(1) “Except as otherwise provided in this title, every male citizen of the United States, and every other male person residing in the United States, between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six, shall be automatically registered under this Act by the Director of the Selective Service System.”

    This amendment is in the NDAA legislation and there is no pending amendment to strip it from the bill. So, when the NDAA passes, as early as this week, Congress will have taken steps to make automatic conscription the law of the land…

    The new law will automatically register all males between the ages of 18 and 26. Selective Service will notify in writing every young American male that they have been registered and will prescribe regulations which can require the registrant to provide “date of birth, address, social security account number, phone number and email address….”

    There are members of Congress who advocate that young women also be included in any draft, which could bring to 32 million the number of Americans of draft-eligible age.

    I wonder if Lindsey Graham has any conscious understanding of the meaning of his own words. He just said, in an extremely public and official setting, that the compelling reason that the United States needed to take all of Russia’s natural resources was that if we didn’t go in and take them then the Russians were going use those trillions of dollars worth of their own property for their own benefit.

    It’s been a while since I’ve heard it explained so plainly. If I don’t steal that guys wallet at gunpoint then that guy is going to go off and spend that money on himself! Horrors! He is practically certain to use it to become so strong that I can’t rob him any more!

    Thank’s Lindsey. Couldn’t have done a better job of writing your confession if I had composed it myself.
