When the U.S. created NATO, a primary purpose of the alliance was to serve as a western wall to defend Germany against the 400,000 Russian troops on the eastern side of the Elbe River. Seventy years later, Germany has decided to double its dependence on Vladimir Putin's Russia for the natural gas needed to run the German economy, despite the opposition of her great protector, the USA. The Biden administration decided to waive sanctions on Matthias Warnig, the ally of Putin whose company, Nord Stream 2 AG, is laying the pipeline beneath the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany that...

Only a few months ago, the Biden administration argued that Nord Stream 2, a proposed natural-gas pipeline running from Russia to Germany, was "a bad deal" that "exposes Ukraine and Central Europe." White House press secretary Jen Psaki had noted at the time that any new pipeline carrying the fossil fuel on the continent "goes against Europe's own stated energy and security goals." This week, Axios reports that President Joe Biden is set to waive sanctions against a major company building the pipeline -- as well as its CEO, Matthias Warnig, a former Stasi agent and a Putin, er, associate....

I’m no fan of Vladimir Putin, but I feel a sinking sense of shame when I envision relations between the former KGB agent who enjoys skydiving with bald eagles or whatever and President Joe Biden, a man who is worried he’ll get in trouble with his own staff if he takes too many questions from reporters. That’s right, yet another embarrassing — and downright chilling — aspect of the Biden presidency is that he’s now the man we need to rely on to keep relations with the Kremlin civil without putting our country even further into crippling debt. And, boy,...

Welcome to the Weekend. Your currently sober drunk host coming off 15 hours in bed sleeping but with a busy schedule ahead which will include posting when I can. I am not feeling well but I have worked myself in part to this exhausted state I find myself in. Vaxxers Or Anti-Vaxxers We Are All God's Children The media making much of Joe Rogan saying he is not an "anti-vaxxer" an indication that the Establishment's march in lockstep media wants to demonize and marginalize opponents of vaccination. This world filled with many accusations about people who don't support the Insider...

Alexei Navalny—Russia's most famous anti-corruption and pro-democracy campaigner—remains languishing in a penal colony east of Moscow, confined to the prison's hospital as his health deteriorates amid an ongoing hunger strike. International media coverage, sanctions and mass protests have failed to puncture the Kremlin's public indifference to the health of one of its most prominent critics. One doctor warned that Navalny could die at "any moment." But outside those prison walls, Moscow is still cracking down on his allies as they try to arrange fresh rallies. Some Navalny staff have gone into hiding, while others have been detained. Top aide Lyubov...

What are Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping up to?In recent days, Russian tanks, artillery, armor, trucks and troops have been moving by road and rail ever closer to Ukraine, and Moscow is said to be repositioning its 56th Guards Air Assault Brigade in Crimea.Military sources in Kyiv estimate there are now 85,000 Russian troops between six and 25 miles from Ukraine’s northern and eastern borders.“I have real concerns about Russia’s actions on the borders of Ukraine. There are more Russian forces massed on those borders than at any time since 2014 when Russia first invaded,” said Secretary of State Antony...

Ukraine is preparing to hold joint military drills with NATO forces amid a renewed threat of escalation in the ongoing conflict with Russia. “On this path, we have everyone’s full and permanent support,” stated Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy. “Support by Ukraine’s international partners, by Europe and United States in particular.”

Biden’s administration is going out of its way to assure Ukraine’s government that the United States and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) have Kiev’s back in its growing confrontation with Russian-supported separatists and Russia itself. An April 2 White House press release confirmed that in his telephone call to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Joe Biden “affirmed the United States’ unwavering support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity in the face of Russia’s ongoing aggression in the Donbas and Crimea.” Other high-level administration officials, including Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken have done the same.Such...

When 73-year old Gayle Meyer was being held against her will at the Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center in Vancouver, Washington on January 29th the call went out for people to show up at the hospital in her support. Dozens did and then police showed up in riot gear by the dozens as well. Meyer was then released by the hospital but afterwards the Clark County Sheriff's Department claimed that they faced a heavily armed group that was threatening. Clark County Sheriff's Detective Tonya Johnson has signed probable cause arrest warrants against four people in the matter including Meyer's daughter...

I can hardly wait to see how President Biden's second 100 days in office go. So far he's ripped up Trump's successful immigration policy by the roots, stopped work on the wall and created a super-crisis on the Southern border. He and his masters in Congress are preparing to screw the rich and corporations with higher taxes on incomes and profits. And because he stupidly agreed with George Stephanopoulos on TV that Vladimir Putin is "a killer," Putin got mad and recalled Russia's ambassador. From day one, when he ordered the Keystone Pipeline to shut down, America's first figurehead-in-chief has...

Russia on Wednesday recalled its ambassador to the United States, coinciding with comments made by President Joe Biden about Russian President Vladimir Putin saying he “will pay a price” and would face punitive actions in the future.
