I realize you intended the second but feel it necessary to comment on the first. Ive seen other videos from that source and would say that IF there isnt funds from the descendant of the original Mockingbird or Obamas openly renewed Mockingbird flowing in there then the creator is at least heavily influenced by Mockingbird sources.

I would have you consider that it would only take one Hiroshima sized device to cripple America. Just one. The panic and the internal hatred would take over, the supply chain would collapse - the economy with it very shortly thereafter, and America would quickly dissolve before our very eyes.

If Putin makes only a tactical or minor strategic nuclear strike, my first guess is that the U.S. would make a massive all over Russia non-nuclear attack; hoping that makes Putin stop his nonsense and gets his generals to get rid of him.

Actually the enemy is within more than without:

REVEALING STATISTICS (or, Present Costs of the War Against God) (extensive if dated). A war which has cost America massively in souls, lives and money.

Yet it is the symptoms that are addressed, not the cause. Considering just one example, if a consensual religious practice - lets say the Lord's supper - was shown to be responsible for  92% of HIV infections among men aged 13 to 24 and male partakers were responsible for 83% (6,385) of all new HIV diagnoses in people aged 13 to 24 in 2019, and 81% of diagnoses of HIV infection among all Adolescents and Young Adults, plus (historically) a greatly increased incidence of other infectious diseases and premature death, and despite decades of attempting to tame it into being "safe," - and as significant cost to taxpayers - then it would be treated as the plague.

As regards financial costs themselves:


"The estimated discounted lifetime cost for persons who become HIV infected at age 35 is $326,500 (60% for antiretroviral medications, 15% for other medications, 25% non-drug costs). [Undiscounted "mean lifetime costs are $597,300 ($4,200)" "Discounted costs are highlighted throughout because they represent economic costs that take into account time preferences of individuals and society and the opportunity cost of funds"] The Lifetime Medical Cost Savings from Preventing HIV in the United States

Costs also can include those for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) [which was] at more than $1,700 for 30 tablets (https://mosaicscience.com/story/hiv-prep-truvada-prevention-sti-std-lgbtqi-gay-condom-pride/).

The cost for  PrEP medication is about  2,000 a month, and which "Most health insurance plans, including Medicaid, cover." (https://www.plannedparenthood.org/learn/stds-hiv-safer-sex/hiv-aids/prep) For any Medicaid insured HIV-negative adult 18 years of age or older patients, lab testing and prescription medication costs are 100% covered. (https://www.louisianahealthhub.org/teleprep/) 

In 2017, around 61,300 people were actively taking PrEP.
(https://www.avert.org/professionals/hiv-around-world/western-central-europe-north-america/usa) with the rate of PrEP users per 100,000 population in 2018 being 68. (https://aidsvu.org/local-data/united-states)

The Ready, Set, PrEP program makes PrEP medication available at no cost for qualifying recipients who lack prescription drug coverage, and  are tested for HIV with a negative result, and have a prescription for PrEP. (https://www.getyourprep.com/)

EDIT: "the federal government has announced that almost all health insurers must cover the HIV prevention pill, known as PrEP, or pre-exposure prophylaxis, with no cost sharing — including for the drug itself and, crucially, for clinic visits and lab tests...This means...Truvada or Descovy, the two approved forms of PrEP, should now be totally free for almost all insured individuals....when taken daily, the tablet reduces men’s risk of contracting the virus from sex with other men by more than 99 percent...PrEP use remains largely limited to white gay and bisexual men...Gilead readily provides PrEP for free to lower-income people who lack health insurance, but the pharmaceutical company does not cover the associated clinic visits and lab tests...Since this spring, Truvada has been available in a generic form with a list price as low as $30 per month. By comparison, Descovy’s list price is currently $1,930 and Truvada’s is $1,842....

Which raises  raises private insurance rates and or taxes for all who pay them.  

Such are just part of the financial and societal costs  that affect every one to varying degrees due to man disobeying God's program, in which sexual union is only between male and female in marriage. And which provides the stable safe environment for trust and intimacy and for  children which are to result, versus  fornication as well as artificial contraceptives.

 
And beyond the financial and societal costs is the spiritual cost, of separation from God now and eternal damnation later  due to impenitent sin. For which only repentance and committed faith in the risen Lord Jesus is the solution, for Christ the Son of God  was sent by God the Father to be the savior of the world. And who therefore gave Himself for our sins on the cross of His death, paying the price for our forgiveness with His sinless shed blood. Thanks be to God.

Giving rise to dictatorship, rationing, and required social conformity.

There is no such thing as a ‘’nuclear war’’, certainly not in the conventional sense of the word. There is ‘’nuclear exchange’’.

One side or the other fires off first and the second power
fires off it’s response and it’s Hell on Earth after that. As Einstein said of such a scenario “The living will envy the dead’’.
