THIS video from the White House briefing today, you absolutely must watch to gain a fulsome understanding of how the modern political left views the world of geopolitical contests in 2022.
Deputy National Security Advisor and Deputy Director of the National Economic Council, Daleep Singh, was presented at the podium today to explain the strategic policy of the Biden administration toward Russia.
Singh’s remarks outlining the view of the ‘west’ toward defeating Russia are eloquent yet batshit crazy in their ideological context. Daleep Singh sounds like the senior head of a Google Human Resources operation telling the department heads how they need to convey their feelings in order to hire the talent for continued growth in the industry. This is a direct quote:
…”Ultimately, the goal of our sanctions is to make this a strategic failure for Russia; and let’s define a little bit of what that means. Strategic success in the 21st century is not about a physical land grab of territory; that’s what Putin has done. In this century, strategic power is increasingly measured and exercised by economic strength, by technological sophistication and your story – who you are, what your values are; can you attract ideas and talent and goodwill? And on each of those measures, this will be a failure for Russia.”
WATCH (14:31, prompted):
Deputy National Security Advisor Daleep Singh boils down geopolitical power to a cultural issue of social likeability.
Let this sink in.
Realize that what he is saying is the strategy leading our foreign policy.
Even if what he was saying is reasonable, and it’s not, I’m thinking strong Russians with hot chicks, nice cars, fast boats and a culture of polite strength, loyalty and fierce protection are winning the “story” side of the argument.
In essence, he is saying the quiet part out loud…. which explains why Obama, Clinton and now Biden are using social media to advance geopolitical strategies.
Pop icons are used as influencers and ambassadors. Hollywood is the quintessential State Department. What Singh is saying is really the true way the modern political left view politics in general, but they rarely say this stuff so openly.
Dear God.
Academics are going to kill us all.
When governments are overthrown, there is a reason that academics are included.
Once upon a time, academics were enlightened, educated, erudite, cultured.
That time, that era, has well passed. If we must use the word academic, let’s at least put it in inverted commas.
Maybe we can add a “c” at the beginning of the word and insert a hyphen before the “d.”
It seems like the communists always take over academia first,then the arts, then politics. Influence the youth!
Included, Yeah,… in South Viet Nam just after ’75, the intellectuals got their “lead in the head”,… no reconstruction camps needed. So efficient.
When I got there in ’94 as the first Am Biz man back, they were still stupid on world Econ and Full of Chit from Moscow’s Command & Control Econ Krap. I told them, the Gov idiots, to stick it, No Deal, and flew back West to the The Best.
The solution to 1984 is 1776.
These are no academics.
Kennedy had the Brain Trust.
Biden is the Brain-Dead Trust.
Brain stem trust…
Nothing but “intellectual” gobbledegook trying to make their illegitimate globalist suck-up totalitarian regime look smart.
Well, you can put lipstick on a pig, but……
The goodwill gulag
I’ll say it again, I’m not in a suicide pact with these people.
was it Groucho Marx that said, “include me out!”
Samuel Goldwyn – but I can see where Groucho would steal that one.
That’s what makes it a murder-suicide.
These people are incapable of rational thought.
A lefty today asked me 8f Putin knows how hated he is right now. I said he’s known it for decades
That’s all these lefties think about is the ‘Great Hate.’
It makes sense: you become a lefty by rejecting God (i.e., love), so hate is what is left.
They don’t know what rational thought is.
Notice they are not true blue Americans. Who the heck chose this people. Y’all need to wake up. Joe Biden and his vice and most of the congress needs to be impeached and what ever we as AMERICANS can do. We sit back and whatever, we are in a world of hurt. We got foreign people in power in this country. Not right. Voting not gonna do it. Look at 2020! We got to screwed.
They lack; Rationale, Judgment, Commonsense. If they had; rationale, judgment, commonsense. It would be impossible they be what they are.
I was wondering where Jake Sullivan was this afternoon that they had to trot out this specimen. Not a sharp tool. That I can tell you.
No comment
I gotcha bro.
Even by their own standards, Biden administration has already lost: weak economic policy, bleeding technology to Chinese, and most importantly, nobody likes them! Their story is the epitaph for a once great nation with the cliff notes version being “FJB.”
Oil went up today. Russia is an opec member right? There’s a story for you.
Russia is not an official OPEC member. They’ve been invited to join and have always refused because it gives them more autonomy residing outside the cartel.
However they do attend OPEC meetings as non-members. But they do their own thing.
in their case, they are using the discount version, “Off the Cliff Notes” –
like Thelma and Louise!
“the cliff notes”, got to love that one:-))))
How utterly insane our leadership is under this installed regime. This is the everyone gets a trophy type idiot who thinking optics are power. He should take a Da Big Leep off the cliff, and see how well his views hold up.
They hate and fear alpha males. Trump is alpha. When another alpha upsets their world they can’t process it.
As Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen Milley must be terrified if Biden is going to order our military into a real war with Russia because Milley knows this is another one we can’t win.
U.S.S. Harvey Milk to the rescue!
No, he’s much too smaht to jump off a cliff. May I suggest he takes that big leap today, off the Empire Hancock Building? 😁
OMG what?
Holy crap, this is sociology 101 is a big lecture hall full of dumb teenagers.
They function like 12 year Olds.
who are nodding off, bored
These people are going to get us all killed..
I think they’re trying to get us all killed.
Actually, I think that they really believe this crap. Unfortunately, their abstractions mean jack squat when confronted with concrete reality. We can hope (realistically) that this will not spiral out of control. When I say out of control, I mean nuclear annihilation.
Nothing’s “off the table” with these incompetent Clowns…

Darth Vagina
I think you’re right
It’s like a cross between Howdy Doody, The gong Show and Jerry Springer. Too funny. These people are tooo funny. And very entertaining.
Bread and Circuses.
Ooh! Ooh. Ooh! Can I hit the gong? Pleeeeze?!?!
KInda like picking a beauty queen based on female dimensions and her pearly white smile.
He says the United States government is the personification of Miss Diplomacy and the winner of the pageant crown..
NOT!!!
Miss Congeniality!
Unfugginbelievable.
There really are a shi* ton of people in the WH who need to be punched in the face.
Some probably were and now they have power.
And, perhaps more tellingly, have NEVER been punched in the face!
That’s what Tyson said.
caesescu-ed
Too damn many of these political butt-holes need to get their azz out of the comfy think tanks and out in the streets! Try that crap with a gang-banger in Chicago. Let us know how that works out for ya’!
These people are always very insulated and monetarily able to escape the consequences of their malignant and juvenile fantasy ideas by ordering up a private jet at a moment’s notice.
The truth is they know nothing, are nothing and believe in nothing. They are the stuff that makes Greek tragedies tragedies.
Money and power – they believe in that.
I hate to guess where Obama & Cult finds these lunatics, but I can assure you, after you see hundreds of soldiers vaporized by modern weapons, you just CANNOT think the way this jerk does and I think the vast majority of Washington DC holds similar views. They are obviously so disconnected from real-world realities they should be removed from any and all positions of governance or national policy. They talk about the world they THINK they want, NOT the world as it is!
SoreASS, klain, plouffe,blicken nuland garland, lerner, schitt, sussman weisman, weinstain, fartstain, schupper, suckerberger, nadless, zucker toobin, laur….git it yet????
I get it , he means the wokesters will inherit the earth, or at least be the most popular …and that counts for something
Heinlein by proxy castigates the notion of academia and scientists of running governments and leading humanity in Starship Troopers (the book not the movie). Increasingly we’re seeing the wisdom of his book manifest itself increasingly in the modern day.
Excellent book! Highly recommended.
THIS is what they come up with when they have NOTHING
So true. But to the brainwashed, indoctrinated, dumbed-down, socialist lemmings it sounds like SOMETHING. Unfortunately.
King KornPop Kumbaya illegal occupant administration.
The fruits of inclusiveness ladies and gentlemen. Our generals want to understand white rage. Russian generals want to understand miltary objectives. Behold our state depsr5ment
Well, my “values” are likely more aligned with Putin at this point, than this criminal, retarded administration.
Me too, even as someone who in the Cold War was very concerned about Russia, and I don’t think Russians have changed all that much. But American sure has.
In Russia you wouldn’t have to deal with all the non white Racists spewing their venom everyday, and trying to put you out of a job. That is the privilege we get to live here in the modern WOKEASS USA.
Does BLM have a Moscow office?
Are the 2022 elections secure? If not, what next? How long can we afford to wait?
To be blunt, I remain pessimistic. Too many RINO’s in too many important positions are allied with the Democrats in keeping the election fraud machine in good working order.
And they been there for years. Any 80 year old should have been gone years ago. Both parties. These people make me sick. Money and power gonna send you to hell.
We can’t. All you Republicans sitting on the fence, get off, get some balls, for God’s sake. Talk is cheap. Let’s see some action. You no better than the Dems. We had the best President in these times, and most Republicans sat back and allowed this to happen. Shame on all of you.

What about how this affects US Citizens? We have had 7.8% inflation before this debacle. Yet this Advisor seems more worried about the Ukrainians.
We gave US Citizens still incarcerated since 1/6/21 yet no one in the World seems concern with this atrocity or Canadians having their bank accounts sanctioned by their own Government.
Let’s have a good look at the problems affecting our working men and women.
America in free fall is comprised of many events, ideas, faces, and crazy words strung together that have unthinkable consequences.
and smith and wessen is your friend, as is 50 cal.
In the WEF video where we all will own nothing and be happy, it states the US will no longer be a super power.
We’re here, folks.
Then America can and should become a very dangerous place for outsiders like many formerly first world countries have become throughout history. Time to create our own no-go zones.
so, are they saying if they get a lot of likes on Facebook AKA the I would call the Meta Worse that means they have won this war?
I liked seeing Mr. Putin making a prayer to the Blessed Mother –
For goodness’ sake, when does “reality” compute in the minds of these people???!!!!!
It doesn’t, not ever. They live in the realm of the theoretical and the magical, with no connection at all to reality.
The inmates are running the asylum.
He thinks Putin thinks like him. He so doesn’t understand people who are not like himself. He imposes his values. Clearly he believes money will solve the problem; Putin can be bought. Like the politicians he works with in DC. Like himself.
Too bad he’s clueless how to fight with weapons instead of just words and clueless about motives for war. I suspect when reality says talk won’t work he’ll sue Putin ; ) and when that fails he’ll order someone else to lock Putin up.
Doesn’t he sound like a clone of Trudeau’s speeches? !
Now we know what it feels like to be poured into a hot waffle iron.
A strong story is not a strong horse.
2022 version of a Valley Girl.
Where do we get these children?
NOT THAT RECORD! NOT THAT RECORD!!! 😬
No mention of freedom. I suppose that’s not odd for this installed regime.
I’m so sorry for America right now, I don’t know what to say.
Just pray for us.
As China and Russia invade the US.
“Daleep Singh boils down geopolitical power to a cultural issue of social likeability.”
So it’s optics, never mind reality.
Talking points and optics are all they’re about.
That is pure horse sh*t and he doesn’t even know that it is. Sundance, you captured this guy’s character perfectly. I doubt Putin, Xi, and the other ruthless strongmen around the globe would agree with him. They would laugh and then crush him.
Diversity destroys. “The Tower of Babel” is USA in 2022. Chinatown, Koreatown, Little Italy, Little Saigon, Little Tokyo, Little Odessa, Spanish Harlem…barrios, caliphates, and ghettos nationwide. (UCI) University of California, Irvine has been called “University of China”, Irvine for 50 years. Lincoln was prophetic: “You and we are different races. We have between us a broader difference than exists between almost any other two races. Whether it is right or wrong I need not discuss, but this physical difference is a great disadvantage to us both, as I think your race suffer very greatly, many of them by living among us, while ours suffer from your presence. In a word we suffer on each side. If this is admitted, it affords a reason at least why we should be separated.”
Putin must be having a good laugh. How utterly embarrassing.
There are no words to convey my level of disgust for this and everything else coming out of Washington right now
Leftists can’t make any story, any philosophy, any concept work without lying. However, they do like lying very much. That’s why they can say B.S. like this with such sincerity.
He is dripping in Woke.
We used to joke about “soy boys” and their 2 1/2″ biceps taking over the USA. It’s now come to fruition.
Arms like broomsticks.
Technological sophistication… values, ideas and goodwill. Yep, that’s gonna get the world clamoring to follow.
They are just loons. I truly do not know if they believe their nonsense or merely mocking us, the people.
Speaking of Facebook and Tic Toc, Ukraine has the world’s 7th largest and Europe’s 2nd largest coal reserve.
Oh, and Ukraine, Australia, and Russia have the biggest proportion of iron ore deposits in the world.
Ukraine is in the top ten producers of manganese ore in the world .
Ukraine holds the largest titanium reserve in Europe.
The country also has the largest uranium deposit in Europe.
Ukraine has 300 deposits of graphite, containing more than 1 billion tons or 20% of the world’s graphite. Only China has more graphite reserves
But we have LaBron James!!
He’s basically saying the country with the most social media likes will win the day because that’s all these turds know.
Yep, maybe tweak the verbiage a little now and then to strokes their pride with additional likes.
The enemedia allowed the terms “vaccine” and “misinformation” to be redefined. Now the term “victory” is also being redefined. Who do they think they’re kidding? We are going to be paying $10 / gal for gas but Putin is the loser here? This is affirmation of the complete and abject stupidity of the current administration.
Nothing about individual liberty. Figures.
That’s so 20th century .You gotta get with the program. Liberty: out. Tyranny and insanity: in.
Gee. You mean this is real? This is where we are? Oh, boy.
At least, when it’s all over and they are finally against the wall, perhaps we can laugh about it.
No?
