Joe Biden warns that the progressive democratic world order is at risk of collapse [tr]

Vice President Joe Biden delivered an epic final speech Wednesday to the elites at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

The gist of his speech was simple: At a time of "uncertainty" we must double down on the values that made Western democracies great, and not allow the "liberal world order" to be torn apart by destructive forces.

Biden went after Russian President Vladimir Putin by name, saying he is using "every tool" in his power to whittle away the European project, and undermine Western democracies. Biden accused Putin of wanting to "roll back decades of progress." Biden said Russia used "cyber aggression" to meddle in the U.S. election, an assertion supported by 17 U.S. intelligence agencies. He also warned that we will see further interference from Russia in the future and said the "purpose is clear" — that Putin wants to see a "collapse of the international order." "Simply put, Putin has a different vision of the future," the vice president warned.

At the outset of his speech, Biden implored the media to not hear his speech as a shot at President-elect Donald Trump, who takes office on Friday. And, while what Biden said applies broadly to leaders in Europe, as well as the United States, there is no mistaking that his comments were a rebuttal to Trump's friendly statements about the Russian president.

So, more homosexual and child rape, super high taxes, reparations to all minorities, death to police and whites, etc.

Yeah, do more of that.

Some one wrote him a new script. Didn't the old script have nothing but praise for Russia? Did he do a double take when suddenly he is regarding Russia the enemy, or did he just shrug his shoulders knowing these are his new marching orders from Soros?

>>progressive democratic world order is at risk of collapse

Like when the "progressive" Arab Spring toppled Libya -- and then created ISIS in collusion with the Muslim Brotherhood.

“Biden went after Russian President Vladimir Putin by name, saying he is using “every tool” in his power to whittle away the European project, and undermine Western democracies. “

Yes, it was Vladimir Putin who leaked stupid gas into the Chancellor’s palace, so Angelina Merkel would let in a million rapefugees, whom Vlad then told to spend New Years eve forcibly violating as many frauleins as they could get their hands on, and told the Europresstitutes to cover it up. HE was secretly behind Brexit, and the Christmas Market Massacre. The pile of bodies keeps adding up, and European voters keep getting fed up with their feckless traitor politicians, and it’s all Vlad’s fault!
