the kagans are truly despicable humanoids, but it appears that they have found an acorn; 

 

There’s no overstating how extraordinary this Atlantic article is, given the author and the outlet.

As a reminder Bob Kagan is:

– The co-founder of Project for the New American Century, probably the single most imperialist Think Tank in Washington (which is quite a feat)

– A man who spent his entire life advocating for American military interventions, especially in the Middle East, and a vocal advocate of the Iraq war. He started advocating for intervention in Iraq before 9/11, which speaks for itself…

– The husband of Victoria Nuland, an extremely hawkish former senior U.S. official (a key architect of U.S. policy in Ukraine, with the consequences we all witness today)

– The brother of Frederick Kagan, one of the key architects of the Iraq surge

In other words, we ain’t exactly looking at some sort of anti-imperialist peacenik. This is quite literally the guy Dick Cheney called when he needed a pep talk.

And the man is writing in The Atlantic, the most reliably pro-war mainstream media outlet in the U.S. (also quite a feat).

So when HE writes that the U.S. “suffered a total defeat” in Iran that has no precedent in U.S. history and can “neither be repaired nor ignored,” it’s the functional equivalent of Ronald McDonald telling you the burgers aren’t great: it means the burgers really, really aren’t great............more..........

 after the way that sain't obama got away with everything i had hopes the the big orange dildo would do better, but i was wrong;

 

 The Big Orange Dildo is being told by his sycophant ass kissers that China is starved for oil, their economy is suffering, and they really really NEED this war to end ASAP, and that they are angry with ran.  This is — as is virtually everything coming from Mr. Dildo’s mouth — complete utter bullshit. Also. I wish I could be a fly on the wall when Mr. Dildo begs China to again sell rare earths to America …. (I wonder how they say “Fuck you, asshole” in Chinese?).  Trump has no cards, and everybody with half a brain knows it at this point...........more..........

mr peters gives us a ride on the big orange dildos train in which we discover reinforcement for his position, self installed, of the omnipotent most exalted decider of our lives and future; 

 

Trump just told us – via 60 Minutes –  he doesn’t “believe” that “you have to have a mandate” for “all” of the “vaccines” that he “believes” in. Just some of them. The ones he “believes” in, you see. This is as close as we’re likely to get to an admission that Trump supports “mandating” – i.e., forcing – people to take drugs.

Remarkable, isn’t it?

The same Trump who ordered the extra-judicial murder of people he says are drug peddlers – there is no proof that what he says is in fact true and even if it’s true about the drugs, they’re not being forced on anyone – supports pushing some drugs on people.

Like the “beautiful” drugs he helped to push on 330 million Americans.

It’s a kind of schizophrenia, a mental schism. Whatever your thoughts about what are styled “street drugs,” there has never been any legal or corporate compulsion to take them. Then there are the legal drugs, such as the so-called “vaccines” Trump says are “beautiful.” These were very much pushed on people, with Trump’s approval and connivance.

His arbitrary approval. According to his “beliefs.”........more...........

 since inauguration day i've had a slowly creeping suspicion that this was his intention and plan; 

 

Editor’s Note: There should be no doubt, at this late date, that Donald J. Trump was specifically installed in the White House to execute “OPERATION ENERGY COLLAPSE” as a necessary global black operation and psyop to greatly facilitate the long planned Great Reset.

YANKEE PIRACY AND USURPATION
OF THE GLOBAL ENERGY ORDER

There should also be no question, in view of all of Trump’s international order-devastating foreign policies, that his Khazarian masters set him on a very serious mission to oversee the controlled demolition of the Global Economic & Financial System..........more.........

 caitlin reports and i am entertained. it seems that bibi is distressed at the level of joo hatred in the ny times. what a hoot. this fool could find hatred in a million years old glacier; 

 

The Israeli government is currently accusing The New York Times of antisemitic blood libel for publishing a report on Israel’s already well-documented systemic rape of Palestinian prisoners.

Contrary to popular belief, the highest award in journalism is not the Pulitzer. The highest award in all of journalism is being accused of antisemitism by the Israeli government for factual reporting.

But the New York Times is unworthy of this award. The Times has been running cover for the Gaza holocaust from the very beginning with extensively documented biases in its reporting, and played a leading role in promoting the atrocity propaganda about mass rapes on October 7. Israel’s abuses were actively facilitated by the New York Times, including its systemic sexual abuse of Palestinian prisoners.

The Times didn’t even run the report as a news story; they put it in the “opinion” section. You can see their bias on its surface by the fact that they ran their notoriously discredited “Screams Without Words” piece as a hard news story.  .....................more...........

 the wars of the epstein class isn't progressing as they'd wished; 

 

The War of the Epstein Alliance can be safely regarded as lost now, as the Israelis are already trying to wash their hands of responsibility for the USA attacking Iran and defending Israel despite the war being observably against the interests of the American people.

The last oil tankers have already delivered their loads. The economic bite of the failed war is only beginning to be felt, and the blame game hasn’t even truly begun yet. The political fallout from it will not be insignificant, as the massive turnover in UK politics very likely demonstrates.

UPDATE: Local National Guard HIMARS artillery unit deployed to ME for a year is home now – they literally fired off everything they could find, painted so many fire mission marks on their launchers that they’re no longer camouflage, and have now sent 90% of their people home. The 10% that remain are working on getting the broken-down launchers out of the desert and onto ships back to the US. This gives me confidence that the war is over by default, and we are out of ammunition.

Vox Popoli …

Iran can outlast the USA. Airpower never accomplishes one-tenth of what its advocates say it will, because airpower never does even one-tenth the damage that the after-action assessors think it did. Desert Storm was the salient ultimate proof of this, as Col. Douglas Macgregor admitted that an Iraqi tank battalion that was bombed for 30 days in the desert was discovered after the war to have survived with 85 percent of its vehicles still operational.

In case you haven’t noticed, despite their relative lack of air forces, both Hezbollah and the Ukrainian armed forces are still in the fight after years of war..............more..........

 larry johnson explores debt, china's and ours, revealing a host of things we'll be encountering; 

 

This article is longer than my usual contribution, but the issue is of critical importance. Donald Trump’s meeting with Xi Jinping is taking place at a time of unprecedented economic turmoil caused by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. As I have discussed in my recent articles, the disruption of the supply chains for oil, Liquid Natural Gas, sulfur, helium and urea marks a global event that has not happened in modern history.

Many Western economists claim that China’s economy is more troubled than the US, even though the US has a far worse debt to gdp ratio. Based on official data from US government sources and China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange, the United States has a significantly higher debt-to-GDP ratio than China. As of the end of 2025, the US ratio was 122.6%, while China’s ratio was 11.9% .

However, it is crucial to understand that these two figures measure very different things. They are like comparing the debt of an entire country to the foreign debt of a single corporation. Here is a detailed breakdown of the comparison.

The Western analysts give the edge to the US over China using the following criteria:......more...........
