Newt Gingrich: Biden-Putin summit – what Russian leader's Soviet-KGB mindset means for relations with US
Fox News ^ | Newt Gingrich

Posted on 08/13/2021 11:53:05 AM PDT by Thunder90

After President Biden’s face-to-face meeting with Vladimir Putin in Geneva last week, I couldn’t help but think of my trip to Russia in 1993.

I was on a congressional delegation visiting Moscow when Boris Yeltsin was president and the West had great hopes for a more open, democratic Russia. I went to see the then-vice president, who was an air force general, in his office. One entire wall of the room was a map of the Soviet Union.

Being cheerfully ignorant, I said to him, "Gosh, that’s a map of the Soviet Union." He looked at me and he responded, "Yes, and that’s what it’ll look like again."

It may be a bit old (from June) but Gingrich is channeling Jeffery Nyquist here.

Poor Newt. He should have hung them up after his 1994 Revolution fizzled out.

Lemme get this straight...

- The Taliban is inside the fence

- The current “President” was installed by massive, in your face fraud

- The country is being overrun by millions from Mexico, Central America and God knows where

- Thousands of Conservative protestors are in DC gulags on hyped up charges, denied bail, while Communist street gangs attack with impunity

- The country is being set up for insane restraints on travel and freedom of movement over a virus with a 99.7% survival rate, which may even be too pessimistic

- The American population of America is now known to be in accelerated decline, mostly due to government policies

But Gingrich is worried that Russia will manage to convince 15 other countries to rejoin them in recreating a failed political experiment 30 years gone.

Is he nuts? Or just going as senile as Biden?

At this point Newt doesn’t have a clue.

A lot of the stuff we are seeing today, including from China and right here at home, stems from stuff that came from Russia before the end of the USSR, and post haste. The thing is that Russia continues to stoke the flames here, assist far left movements like BLM and Antifa, give dictatorships like Cuba and Venezuela the means to crush opposition groups, and continues to build up their forces.

Also the SVR and GRU are active in subversion operations on both the Left and “Right”, including funding and training Antifa and BLM, Communist Party USA Revcom, and similar groups, as well as neo nazi type groups.

the West had great hopes for a more open, democratic Russia.== Here is a democratic Russia of boris eltsin. The tag say: Do you remember 1990s? The whole "civilized West" are our friends and USA is the best one. Check this Youtube channel: It is called "Then and Now". All clips start with then 1990s of a "democratic Russia" before Putin but end with now today: authoritarian Putin Russia. You can understand why the people support Putin.

Because Communism is so great.

Russia is an enemy that should not be underestimated, and their hands are in far more than most want to believe.

Check out http://jrnyquist.blog. Great articles there (not mine).

Communism in today Russia? Com’on sir you can’t be so blinkered))..

And Russia is just defend herself as any country does. Nyquist I’ve heard but I think he is just delusional calling today Russia as a “communism”. America is more communist today for sure.

The thing is that Putin hates the NWO as much as Trump. He and Russia are not our enemies in this fight for humanity. Russia is not China.

Putin, nor Xi, are our NWO. They want a worldwide Stalinist Communist state; their own NWO. What you think of as the NWO are the Western Elites who are at times “useful idiots” for the other guys. Still dangerous though, but they have other goals. China and Russia plan to destroy them at some time in the future.

No Russia does not want a world wide Stalinist state. Putin is a nationalist just like Trump. He tries to get along with China because he has a 3000 mile border with them which is a scary proposition for a country with the GDP of Texas.

BTW a country with the GDP of Texas doesn’t have much of a shot at World domination. 😅
