Thanks for the post on subscriber chat. I so agree with you about Mike Johnson. How is it that our supposed leaders become so corrupted so quickly? Do they really know something we don’t have access to or are they just corrupted by power and influence of the oligarch class? Looking forward to hearing your perspective on this and other issues. I’m a former traditional conservative who now is anti establishment, anti war and very pro free speech. Thanks for your work.
I am a lifelong traditional old-right Pat Buchanan conservative as well. The answer to your question is that they are corrupted and deceived by the oligarch class. I remember back in 2002-2003 when I was serving on the US Army HQ staff that people were saying President Bush must have invaded Iraq because he knew some Top Secret intelligence we didn't. But the truth was leftwing Presidents have been starting or getting us into dumb wars since 1917 with few exceptions. We still have 15 America First Senate GOP conservatives and 112 America First conservatives in the House so all hope is not yet lost. Trump is usually America First though his tacit support for the Biden-Schumer Ukraine aid bill was 100% America Last.
I'm in despair after reading this because it has the undeniable ring of truth to it . The Biden Junta and the EUnuchs are out of their rational minds and are out of common sense and survival instincts ; as such I have zero confidence in their ability to engage in nuclear poker and brinkmanship with the Russians . We are surely going to lose
The Russians are going to launch a summer offensive and collapse the Ukie army morale , leading to a race to the Dnieper and put Kiev literally under Russian guns . I have confidence in the wise and restrained actions of the russians but have no confidence in the nefarious Ukraine regime or the drama queens in NATO and the EU . Let's just hope the Russians can win without the West provoking WW3
I wish Ukraine would have implemented the Minsk 2 agreement or at least signed the March 2022 peace deal in which Russia agreed to withdraw to their prewar borders in exchange for Ukrainian neutrality. Failing that I wish Ukraine would accept an armistice along the current line of control. But so long as Zelensky refuses to negotiate a peaceful end to the war, it is in the US national security interest for it to be terminated as quickly as possible even if that means a major Russian victory following a massive Russian summer offensive.
I see the military situation as something like in the spring of 1944 just before the launching of ''Operation Bagration ''but on a smaller scale
Or it could be similar to the Allie's successful Hundred Days Campaign in the summer of 1918 when the tired and exhausted German army was pushed back by combined hammer blows of perfectly synchronised Allied armies
There is no "far left" in the US. There is not even a "left" that has any political power or influence. That is just a very stupid and ridiculous Republican talking point used by Republicans to rile and manipulate its partisans.
The truth is that the Democratic Party is as rightwing as the Republican Party. They both support Fascist Zionism, US Empire and World Hegemony, Rightwing Neocon Militarism and Warmongering, full control of all media, full censorship of other non-approved narratives, and full destruction of the US citizens' rights under the First Amendment. All those are rightwing positions supported by both Republicans and Democrat.
I respectfully disagree. Support for expanding America's liberal empire is an inherently liberal position which is why 100% of Democrats in Congress support it but only half of Congressional Republicans do.
Globalism is liberal, in fact it's socialism, insomuch, it's a form of ''levelling up'' but not among classes , but of Third World nations and the prosperous West . It's international socialism . Globalism spreads by military force too when a traditional conservative nation like Russia simply refuses to march in lockstep to the neo liberal beat of open borders, LGBTQ ideology and climate cult
That's right except I don't think Russia's refusal to accept woke ideology has anything to do with the war in Ukraine. Its all about a war to rollback NATO expansion to Russia's western frontier.
If the West had not gone ''woke'' and Globalistic; if they were still the relatively conservative West of, say, 1984,then Russia as a traditional nation state with its own ''sphere of influence'' would still need to go to war to roll back NATO expansion as is their right as a ''Great Power''

Even If Trump wins in November he'll be hamstrung by the cowardly RINOS
As always thank you for sharing your wisdom on things Mr. Pyne!
I had high hopes for the House Speaker.
Truly tragic and feeling the Ukraine situation will just be that much more with prolonged suffering and death caused by this turn-coat decision.
One look at the US southern Border and one would think these politicians would recognize what is of most importance.
Unbelievable.
Yes it's very troubling and saddening with the Deep State warmongers back in charge of the House of Reps.

I think it could be like the German Blitzkrieg into France in May 1940.

Yes the war doesn't have anything to do with globalist woke cultural Marxism. It was caused by US imperialist expansion into Ukraine.
