For those few enlightened patriotic Americans who have a few brain cells left and see that Putin’s SMO was merely his reaction to NATO’s envelopment & violation of the Minsk Agreement then expose your truths to only those that are likewise enlightened. I did my best to explain this to my 90 year old friend Charlie yesterday and he called me a communist. He said Russian was bombing & killing civilians in hospitals and every Russian deserved death at the hands of his hero Zelensky. Charlie, like most of the vaxxed & boosted are zombies & automatons when it comes to truth and common sense. Fortunately, my wife of 47 years and I are 100% on the same page on all issues. I know people who are polar opposites on woke subjects and never will the twain converge. For those of you not fortunate to have an unwoke wife, husband or friend I suggest you plan on living a lonely but enlightened life.

The same happened to me with a (formerly) very close family member. I made a very mild statement about how nato has been expanding eastward and that they had finally crossed the line that Putin had warned them against repeatedly. My family member completely flipped out. Called me a Putin lover, baby murderer and I don’t even remember what else. Ended a 50+ year relationship. It will be interesting how this plays out when Russia wins. These brainwashed nut jobs aren’t going to blame themselves for falling for the bullshit.

Over Christmas, my brother-in-law made an off handed comment that Russia is aggressor and Ukrainians are the victims. I replied that he was right about the later being expendable pawns in a globalist plan to provoke Russian govt into WW3. My brother-in-law is 4x’s vaxxed and was never capable of a critical thinking and discussing differing points.

To summarize, this exchange led to heated argument where he was not able to accept that NATO and US have been encroaching on Russia’s borders in clear violation of Minsk agreement and there is no understanding about the current Nazi regime running Ukraine are killing their eastern Ukraine citizens who happened to be Russian ethnics. There is no understanding that Russia has right to protect expatriates being killed by demented Ukrainian military

Piano Dick Player gave this speech on Dec. 24 to his peeps;

“Unfortunately, all the holidays have a bitter aftertaste for us this year. And we can feel the traditional Spirit of Christmas differently. Dinner at the family table cannot be so tasty and warm. There may be empty chairs around it. Our houses and streets can’t be so bright. And Christmas bells can ring not so loudly and inspiringly. Through air raid sirens, or even worse – gunshots and explosions. And all this together can pose a bigger threat. It is a disappointment. Of the higher forces and their power, of goodness and justice in the world. Loss of hope. Loss of love. Loss of myself.”

The man is in deep depression, if not suicidal … for, as Macgregor said, he knows what is coming.

I’d wish ya’ll a Happy New Year …. except I don’t give a rat’s ass about your state of bliss. Why should I?

That being said, I read that nationally the copfuks are going to be out in force tonight looking for drunk drivers. If you must drink, consider staying off the road, even if you think you ain’t legally drunk.

And if by chance you do get pulled over —> be FUNNY!! Cops love people they pull over who are fucken funny. They live for it. Really. Here, try this one, for example ….

Agree. A cop was giving me a ticket. He said you were 27 over. I said your shitting me. I didn’t think this old thing could go that fast. He almost let me go. It was an AMC hornet.

With the folded flag, perhaps they are telling him (and us) that the only way they could launder trillions of dollars is if America is dead.

The comments by Douglas Macgregor are insightful. Notice that the tanks at 0:38, 3:15, and 4:41 are probably Israeli Merkava IV tanks. The soldiers at 1:53 look like WWII German soldiers manning a 75 mm anti-tank gun. The person who provided the background videos who should have been more selective.

435 Congressional districts.

$110 Billion to Ukraine.

That’s $253,000,000 per district.

Just imagine what your district could do with $253 Million dollars. Every member of Congress should serve life in prison.

Mercouris: “Something Big Is On the Way”

Bottom line: The prospects for peace in Ukraine are zilch. The US foreign policy establishment has decided that the only way it can reverse America’s accelerating decline is through direct military confrontation. The war is Ukraine is the first manifestation of that decision. On the other hand, Russia no longer puts any stock in negotiations with the West, because western leaders cannot be trusted to honor their commitments or fulfill their treaty obligations. The irreconcilable differences of the two main parties makes escalation inevitable. Absent a partner that can be trusted, Putin has just one option for resolving the conflict: Overwhelming military force…

Is Lawrence, right? Is “something big on the way?

It certainly looks like it. In the space below I have transcribed quotes from recent videos with Colonel MacGregor and Alexander Mercouris, two of the best and most reliable analysts of the war in Ukraine. Both agree that a Russian “winter offensive” will take place in the near future, and both agree on the strategic objectives of the operation…

While no one can predict the future with absolute certainly, it seems that both MacGregor and Mercouris have a good-enough grip on the facts that their scenario cannot be dismissed out-of-hand. In fact, the present trajectory of the conflict suggests that their predictions are probably “dead on”. In any event, we won’t have to wait long to find out. Temperatures are dropping fast across Ukraine which allows for the unencumbered movement of tanks and armored vehicles. Russia’s winter offensive is probably just weeks away.

Russia is in a difficult situation as they admit. Not militarily, but politically. The problem is that they are being put in a position to have to win this war militarily, despite the fact that by now it is clear Ukraine does not stand a chance. The US and NATO will then politicize the death and destruction that a military victory will cause and accuse Russia of a humanitarian crisis. They will then use that to try to strong arm the rest of the world into removing Russia from the UN so the US will no longer have to worry about Russia’s veto power. At that point, the US will have one a huge victory.

Are you kidding? I think 90% of the countries want to join the BRICS and screw the US back. We should defund the UN and get out.

I believe him because the same click of NeoCon assholes is running America as during Vietnam, Waco and Afghanistan. We will get nuked and invaded if they aren’t removed.
