Chad’s government threatens to kick out US troops as Russia expands influence in Africa

CNN ^ | 4/18/24 | Haley Britzky

The US risks losing its military presence in another African country as the government of Chad sent a letter threatening to end a critical security agreement, according to four US sources, a move that threatens to cede more US influence in the region to Russia.

In a letter sent to the US defense attaché last week, Chadian officials threatened to cancel the Status of Forces Agreement, or SOFA, which determines the rules and conditions under which US military personnel can operate in the country. While the letter did not directly order the US military to leave Chad, the officials told CNN that it said all US forces would have to leave the French base in N’Djamena.

“...no voting, what is on that mushy mind of yours? “

Voting is Bullsh*t ! Elections don’t matter !

But BoomerCons can’t (or won’t) understand that because they are so steeped in the Boomer Truth Regime of high school civics, that they have no way of imagining how real political change actually happens.

It happens by institutional capture. Or it happens by Regime collapse.

The Boomers turned over the instiutions to the Left. So all we can do is wait for Regime collapse.

By all means vote for Trump. He is a disruptive and destabilizing force that accelerates Regime instability.

But voting for these Regime “conservatives” like johnson, Poilievre or Sunak doesn’t do anything.

They represent gatekeeping and containment, and probably prolong the survival of the Regime.

The only thing I can recommend is work at the local level. People who confront the Regime directly will end up like the truckers or J6 people, or Craig Livingston.

Globohomo = Globalist Homogenization. It is centered in the USA but it is the entire West.

But none of us can break away until the DC REgime goes down.

After Regime collapse, reform is possible.

LOL, you keep naming Trump’s base as the problem.

For some reason you don’t realize that what you keep attacking as older conservatives who are also largely the Evangelicals are the Trump voters.

And your big reveal is get involved in local politics? That is what all this dark negativity hating America and the West all day, of everyday of your life is about, your message is get involved locally and hate the Trump voters?

[Reverend Wright]

I don’t “hate” the Trump voters, or any right of center voters, even if they are naive about what voting and elections really mean, and take the rhetoric of fake “conservatives” at face value.

I do hate the fake “conservative” politicians who take advantage of them and build their careers and wealth while betraying their voters’ interests.

But what can I say about someone who insists that it is all about voting and elections ?

It’s like trying to explain to someone that the WWE is fake, and they don’t want to hear it.

[ansel12]

Now you are starting that thing where you make up fake positions for me.

You do hate the core trump voters which is why you constantly belittle them as boomer cons, and mock conservatives and conservatism, and even voting.

You can never say what you really mean, you just like to keep endlessly listing the negatives, all day long, everyday but with no other answers except to stop participating in politics and don’t be conservative and mock Trump’s main voters who are boomers, conservatives, and evangelicals.

[Reverend Wright]

“... that thing where you make up fake positions...”

“...You do hate the core trump voters ...”

---

Completely dead to irony.

[ansel12]

No, I am spot on.

Look at the voting data and you will see that the group you rage against are the best Trump voters, the older, conservative, Evangelical voters.

The group you hate, conservatives and older/boomer voters who also make up most of the Evangelical vote.

[ansel12]

“...You do hate the core trump voters ...”

To try and make it more clear, your hatred and attacks, and criticism, is aimed at the people voting FOR Trump instead of the people voting against him.

That backwardness sort of fits your bizarre hope that Red China or Russia will conquer America and the West, to save us.

[kiryandil]

Completely dead to irony.

COMPLETELY.

[Reverend Wright]

My criticism is primarily of BoomerCon politicians and BoomerCon elites who take advantage of voters that don't really realize what is happening, betray their own voters, and enrich themselves while knowing what is going on.

Trump is the only one who has ever even spoken against it. And tried to do something. That's why he has 91 fake charges against him.

Fake-ass "conservatives" like George W Bush. They said they wanted to send him to The Hague on war crimes, and a couple years later he is hugging it out with Michelle Obama.

Voters who are endlessly fooled by the same confidence tricks do deserve some criticism for gullibility.

But, in the end it is like criticizing the crowds at a WWE event. Their opinions don't matter, and the whole is fake anyway.

[kiryandil]

You can ignore this clown.

He was attacking Trump by calling him a pro-abortion Democrat in 2015, and then dropped off the FR board for seven years in a neocon snit when Trump won the 2016 FR primary wars, and then won the presidency.

He only returned when his Joe Biden started the neocon attacks on The Putin.

[Reverend Wright]

Yeah, I know.

A consistent pattern:
-neverTrumper
-Ukraine
-Cold War nostalgist - the Eternal Return to 1983.

One mid level Russian Officer saved us all during Able Archer, but they can’t wait back to their glory days.

[McGruff]

Russia and China seem to be making moves for Africa. There must be some reason for their interest. Natural resources?

[kiryandil]

He's probably got a basement dartboard with Lieutenant Colonel Stanislav Petrov's picture on it...  

[Reverend Wright]

I hope not.

Nostalgia for when one was young is one thing. Hope for global war is something else.

We did see some of that in the early days of the Ukraine operation, from Speedy in Texas and others, where they openly wanted global nuclear war, rather than have Putin “win” anything.

Also seen on Twitter from some of the Left, especially in Brooklyn.

Just psychotic.

[ansel12]

There you go again, you never say anything, you only keep listing criticisms, and Bush was never considered a conservative by conservatives.

And don’t confuse a primary battle with someone being a never Trumper, a primary is where you argue and then get behind the winner of the primary.

You hate conservatives because you keep making up fake ones and saying they aren’t conservative, and you do go after conservatism and conservative voters, for one thing you keep going after people born during certain years which is bizarre, especially since they tend right versus the generations who vote left.

Your constant posting is anti-America, anti-West, and pro-Russia and even Red China, to the extent that you think them conquering us is a cure.

[Gen.Blather]

For all of its evils, and they were to one degree or another there for all to see, the West gave the Global South an economy, infrastructure, education, laws, finance, medicine, industrial agriculture, etc. As bad as it was for some, the net effect was to build nations. Or at least the cornel of a nation. The fact some of them have failed is mostly due to their own internal dynamics*. Arguably, what some of them have done to themselves is worse than anything the West did.

*One of the popes, I’ve forgotten which one, outlawed cousin marriage. The effect was to break up the clans and weld larger numbers of people into a nation. The Global South is largely still made up of clans. As long as this is true, they will be failed states.

North America is decadent and failing, but is going to be conquered by the Cartels, not China. The Cartels already have a significant foothold. They are the ones organizing the mass illegal immigrant invasion that the BoomerCon politicians in DC refuse to take ANY action to stop.

You think we are such a great prize that overseas enemies like Russia and China can’t wait to sail across the oceans and invade (mirroring NeoCon thinking, I guess).

It won’t happen. Once the DC Regime becomes too weak to operate overseas, Russia and China won’t pay any more attention to us than they do to say, Brazil or Chile.

[ansel12]

You never say what your politics are, only that you want America and the West to fall to China and Russia and you confuse 3 legged stool conservatives like me and what used to be the vast majority of FR, with their enemy, neo-cons.

Your arch enemy in America appears to be what you said you used to be before you saw the light, “Boomer Cons”.

To quote you “I am a recovering Boomer Con” what does that mean, how are you defining a Boomer Con voter and what should they switch to?

Don’t give us another list of people, define what you were and what kind of voter you switched to, the word “Boomer Con” combines a Trump voting generation with the Trump voting political identifier group, why do you hate them so much?

[Reverend Wright]

“...define what you were and what kind of voter you switched to, ...”

---

The epitome of the “BoomerCon” obliviousness is to equate political change with “voting”.

“Conservatives” have voted plenty in the last 50 years, won lots of elections - it didn’t change anything. The institutions moved left, and we are where we are now.

Voting and public opinion is irrelevant.

It’s like polling the crowd at a WWE event. It doesn’t matter what they want. And the entire event is fake anyway.
