Finally! Putin Showed Off A New Terrifying Hypersonic Missile That Shocked NATO The diamond in the crown of the Russian Empire and Putin’s Joker are both quite appropriate epithets. In military terms, we are discussing a hypersonic glide vehicle that flies to the target at hypersonic speed. It has a nuclear warhead of between 0.8 and 2 megatons. Three hypersonics, Zircon, Kinzhal and now the Avanguard.

EPISODE TRANSCRIPT He is one of the most famous people on the planet. Not just a world leader but a military leader. And the face, we are told of “democracy.”I’m investigative journalist Ben Swann.He is unmistakable, as Volodymyr Zelenskyy (Vo-lo-dee-meer Zeh-len-skiy )is always wearing olive green. Whether sweatsuits, or some kind of military uniform… mostly it’s just green. A uniform he wears all the time, no matter the event. Whether speaking before a joint session of the United States Congress or at a black-tie gala or ringing the bell of the New York Stock Exchange… he is always dressed for...

The Kremlin promised entertainment.Western analysts feared Vladimir Putin would declare another war.But the Russian president’s more than two-hour-long address on Thursday delivered on neither expectation, though Putin presented Russians with a vision of the future that alternated between nuclear saber-rattling and grand social promises. ###Putin, who cut a relaxed figure, also called for the safeguarding of “traditional family values.”“We see what is happening in some countries where moral norms and family institutions are deliberately being destroyed, pushing entire peoples to extinction and degeneration,” he said. “We choose life.”

This is an interesting 11 min Y'tube, discussing Donald Trump and his move toward peace negotiations. Both Galloway and Garland Nixon are on the political left, but neither are NEOCONS nor are they Democrats. The rapidly growing anti-Ukraine war movement is becoming a joint effort of the MAGA right (Trump) and the non-progressive left (Tulsi Gabbard).

Excellent discussion of the United State's China policy and what it may lead to. Literally eye opening. "The question we are posing is how big a price will America pay for the egregious offence to the People's Republic of China by the visit of Nancy Pelosi the third most important person in the American state?"

Double-tap attacks meant to kill first responders are an outright violation of Geneva conventions.

Communiqués from the Ukrainian General Staff indicate that Russian forces are tightening their grip around Bakhmut. Enemy subunits are being held back on the north-western outskirts of the town (Krasna Hora, Paraskoviivka, Yahidne) and south of the Bakhmut-Kostiantynivka road, including on the western side of the Donets-Donbas canal (Predtechyne, Stupochky), which they have now crossed. The Russians are also expanding the area of their assault to the northwest of Soledar, where they have crossed the Bakhmut-Siversk road at Vasyukivka. The aggressor’s offensive is being contained south and east of Siversk, in the Avdiivka area, and in an arc west of...

Central European countries like Croatia, Hungary, and also recently Austria too are beginning to emerge as voices of reason in the West after their de facto New Cold War bloc’s proxy war on Russia through Ukraine over the past year failed to defeat that Great Power. They rightly realize how counterproductive this NATO-led campaign has been for their collective interests, ergo why they’re urging restraint and even an outright reversal of policy at this point in time. Croatian President Zoran Milanovic is unexpectedly giving Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban a run for his money when it comes to being the...

Mike Lindell is a conservative who puts his actions where his mouth is. Lindell has been outspoken bout election fraud and has been slammed with persecution for speaking out as well as investigating the issue. Lindell has invested his own money toward investigating the fraudulent 2020 election. As a result, he has been sued by Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic for defamation, canceled by major retailers, and retaliated against by the Biden Justice Department. Recent persecution includes the incident on September 13 when the Stasi-FBI raided Lindell outside of a Hardee’s restaurant and seized his mobile devices, including the phones...

For eight years, NATO has supported puppet rulers in Ukraine, funded attacks in the Donbass, repeatedly violated the Minsk agreements, supported the ban on speaking Russian in the Luhansk and Donetsk republics, and helped to destroy the democratic opposition and free media in Ukraine. The result was a one-party government, essentially owned and funded by the United States, and run by American operatives. And no halftones and subtleties. Yet, somehow, the United States managed to convince the population of its country and other Western countries that Russia is a “bad boy”, that it is out of control and must be...
