Moscow is banning Washington from using Russian-made rocket engines, which the US has used to deliver its military satellites into orbit, said Russia’s Deputy PM, Dmitry Rogozin, who is in charge of space and defense industries.

According to Rogozin, Russia is also halting the operation of all American GPS stations on its territory from June 1.

“So why are we using Russian rocket engines to begin with?”

The same reason that we shut down the Shuttle program and are now paying the Russians to send OUR astronauts up - Agenda 21.

Agenda 21- put thousands of Americans out of work and send billions of $$ to other countries = the A21 goal of re-distribution of wealth.

Shut down the American fishing industry, import over 90% of our seafood, export over $12 billion in the trade deficit.

Put the American cattleman out of business, import meat.

Shut down or severely restrict domestic energy production.

And NAFTA is part of it also. Read the Preamble.

Vlad has taken full measure of the man
Vlad is a good strategist. He knows a jug eared loser f____t when he sees one. Obamas rap fools stooopid Americans but not world leaders who came up the hard way. They see him as a 5 year old throwing a tantrum in the sandbox

We have front row seats to the collapse of the greatest nation the world has ever known.

Along with all of Western Civilization...Although ironically, the Russians may wind up saving it in the end.

It doesn’t have to be a collapse but we do have to ride out the rest of the damage this administration does.

“We have front row seats to the collapse of the greatest nation the world has ever known.”

Our children and grandchildren are going to curse us in eternity for it.

We were “too busy” to get involved politically in stopping it.

Obama: no support for Christians in Sudan, no support for people being massacred in Africa (not Nigeria, not Rwanda, just a massacre in a little African country about two years ago, so it didn't matter to Obama), etc.

Obama: he cares about Libya (Quaddafi was on his way to nationalizing all oil reserves) and Egypt (Muslim Brotherhood!)

This comes from Rogozin, so you can assume it is official.
Obama has been nitpicking the Russians, now they are about to hit back with things that really hurt.

But hey, did you hear about that racist NBA owner?? That is the only thing the U.S. Media will cover. Just watch....

I’ve long said this is Alinsky vs. Machiavelli.

These are more efficient and reliable...

Or just cheaper?

Since when have we been using Russian engines? From a absolute reliability standpoint, I wouldn’t use a Russian rocket engine to burn trash.

I wonder if the Alphabet Network evening news shows will even mention this???

There is the Jay-Z/Beyonce’s Sister fight to cover, after all.

So why are we using Russian rocket engines to begin with?

*********************

Because self sufficiency was abandoned after Reagan. Since then we’ve had all these smart transnational types. Globalists belief in interdependence and harmony. Massive bureaucratic oppression too, but that’s another story.
