One of the most under-discussed yet consequential changes in the American political landscape is the reunion between the Democratic Party and the countrys most extreme and discredited neocons. While the rise of Donald Trump, whom neocons loathe, has accelerated this realignment, it began long before the ascension of Trump and is driven by far more common beliefs than contempt for the current President.
A newly formed and, by all appearances, well-funded national security advocacy group, devoted to more hawkish U.S. policies toward Russia and other adversaries, provides the most vivid evidence yet of this alliance. Calling itself the Alliance for Securing Democracy, the group describes itself as a bipartisan, transatlantic initiative that will develop comprehensive strategies to defend against, deter, and raise the costs on Russian and other state actors efforts to undermine democracy and democratic institutions, and also will work to publicly document and expose Vladimir Putins ongoing efforts to subvert democracy in the United States and Europe.

I've said it here before, and I'll say it again. Party affiliation is less meaningful today than it's ever been in my lifetime. Right now we have three general political movements in this country: Globalists, Nationalists and Marxists. The Globalists are the most powerful because they comprise most of the GOP and the remnants of the Democrat Party outside their low-IQ lunatic fringe (Maxine Waters, Elijah Cummings, etc.), but the Nationalists have managed to work their way into the White House for the first time in almost 30 years.
I don’t feel Russia’s a ‘foe’ to the American people as much as they’re a ‘foe’ to our Deep State... And I’m tired of subsidizing the ‘cops and robbers’ game both groups play with each other. We’re their excuse for expanding and they’re our excuse for throwing so much money down the ‘intelligence’ rat hole.
It doesn’t help that our ‘intelligence services’ appear to be aligned with the corrupt liberal elite democrat party. AND that they appear to be the people behind the ‘leaks’ against President Trump.
So no, I don’t like that group either. And they hate us...hate conservatives - their bias is offensive since all American pay their salaries - they are hired to serve all of us - not be our ‘masters’.
That said, I’m NOT interested in seeing communism in Nicaragua either...
The Space Program highlights common ground with Russians - ground we don’t have in common with anyone else. Both our countries had what it took to get into space years ago... a technological superiority few others have ... North Korea might use the technology, but in a million years they would not have come up with it on their own.
So again - it's worth a long hard look and there's plenty of time to ‘get it right’...
Communism is one of the worst economic systems created in the history of the world. It's the crap the far left wing pushes.. so we need to ‘keep it real’ when dealing with them...
I suspect the biggest “crime” the Russians have been perpetrating for the last 25 years since the fall of the Iron Curtain is that they continue to do business in rubles instead of U.S. dollars. That would explain a lot of the bullsh!t that passes for U.S. foreign policy these days.
Yes he is... some in Congress and CIA are his toys.
P.S. — Communism right here in the U.S. is a bigger threat than anything we face from the former Soviet Union, South America, etc.
One of life's lessons is to examine ones own weakness... There was a time when willie Kristol sounded very wise, to my mind. But during the W presidency he showed his primary colors.. A trouble making punk.. W listened to these war mongers and allowed them to dictate the parameters of war. Saddam had to go, because of him using the 'rotten food for oil' UN program he was funding those homicide bombers that kept plaguing Israel. Course now it was Putin that was up to his eyeballs in assisting the pit dwelling Saddam in the corrupt 'rotten food for oil' UN program.
Whose money are these Neocons using? I don’t think they do anything for free.
You’re right, however the brainwashing and globelist ideas
have dropped down to lower school grades The children are no longer taught history, grammer & mathematics to name a few subjects, but they do have nurseries for the girl’s babies.
