There is really only one question that matters at the heart of the U.S. position toward Ukraine and NATO.  It was asked halfway through the press conference with Jennifer Psaki today.

“Considering that NATO allies have not held up their own agreement to spend 2 percent of their own GDP on their military preparedness … if Europeans are not willing to expend their own blood and treasure on their own self-defense why should Americans be expected to do so?” 

Spoiler Alert… The White House could not answer the question.  Jen Psaki hemmed, hawed, and attempted to use verbal linguistics to assemble previously over-used soundbites, but she could not -and did not- answer that question.  WATCH:

.

‘Nuf said.

The honest answer would be…  We, in the Biden and Obama administration, are doing all this stuff in Ukraine, for Ukraine and under the auspices of protecting Ukraine, because a whole bunch of us from both political parties in/around the DC beltway – along with our families – receive massive amounts of personal financial wealth from the DC money laundering operation of foreign aid money in/around Ukraine.

That’s the real answer, and the reason Psaki cannot reconcile the easiest question publicly.   The NATO members also know that American politicians enrich themselves and their families through the laundry of foreign aid to their own bank accounts.

Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson moderated a panel discussion on COVID-19 today titled “COVID-19: A Second Opinion.”  The roundtable discussion included a group of world-renowned doctors and medical experts to provide a “different perspective on the global pandemic response, the current state of knowledge of early and hospital treatment, vaccine efficacy and safety.” [Video coming soon]

During a segment of the presentation, Attorney Thomas Renz gave testimony {Direct Rumble Link} on behalf of whistleblowers inside the medical system who have access to vaccination data that is withheld from the general public.

Mr. Renz outlined data of adverse reaction to the vaccinations including a rate of miscarriages that increased 300% over the five-year average, a rate of increased cancer over 300%, and an increase in neurological issues over 1,000 percent (from 82,000 yearly average to now 863,000 in one year with the vaccines). WATCH:

.

Mr. Renz testified that all of the institutional medical establishment officials are aware of the data; however, the medical and scientific community have suppressed the adverse vaccine information in order to continue the policy of mitigating COVID-19 through vaccination.

The medical tenet of the patient consenting to health protocols after reviewing all the information, commonly referred to as “advise and consent”, was manipulated to avoid a vaccine hesitancy in the targeted population, us.

For those who think the conflict is not being orchestrated by the Obama-Biden administration, consider this.  European countries and our NATO allies are not as worried about Russia entering Ukraine.

The people closest to the situation including France and Germany, are not asking for the U.S. to get involved.  Indeed, you can make the argument based on their public statements, that European NATO countries are not that concerned.  Even Chuck Todd (NBC) sees this.

It is the Obama-Biden foreign policy team that is creating anxiety over the potential for Russia to enter Ukraine, not our NATO allies. If we end up in a conflict in Ukraine, it will be because the professional political class in Washington DC want us to be in a conflict in Ukraine, not the American people.

Russian President Vladimir Putin can easily see this dynamic.

(Via ABC) – The State Department ordered diplomats’ families Sunday afternoon to depart the U.S. embassy in Kyiv, Ukraine, amid heightened fears of a Russian attack on the country.  The embassy has also authorized non-emergency employees to depart, according to an internal cable obtained by ABC News.

In an updated travel advisory issued later Sunday, the State Department confirmed the drawdown and urged U.S. citizens in Ukraine to consider departing the country now using commercial flights.

Earlier today tens of thousands of people, vaccinated and unvaccinated, attended the “Defeat The Mandates” rally in Washington DC.  Among the notable speakers was Dr. Robert Malone {Direct Rumble Link} and Robert Kennedy Jr. {Direct Rumble Link}.

CBS host Margaret Brennan is shocked, shocked, at the responses from her middle America panel when asked for an update on how their lives have been made better by the occupant of the White House.   Brennan tries to carry water for the Biden administration but fails miserably.

Curiously, and again feeding actual data that rises above the officially sponsored national propaganda, four of the six panelists are not vaccinated.  Three voted for Biden, and three are identified as Trump supporters.  However, all six panelists say their lives have gotten worse under Joe Biden.

All of the panelists agree their #1 issue is rising prices and the astronomical inflation that is hitting them hard.  Specifically, the out of control food prices are mentioned. All of the group also agree that Biden’s covid policy is a hot mess of conflicting gibberish that doesn’t make sense, and the spending on masks and home tests is ridiculous and of no value.

It is an interesting discussion to watch.

The U.S. shot goblin known as Anthony Faucissus appeared on ABC This Week to proclaim that a fourth booster shot may be needed for both the bottom line of his objectives and the bottom line of the Rx profit and loss statement. [Full Video Here]

Why anyone is still listening to this guy is beyond my comprehension.   It was clear from the first moment he was elevated in prominence, that Fauci has some seriously disturbed outlooks toward health policy. This is not a stable minded person. During the ABC segment, Faucissus advocated for a fourth booster and continued mask wearing in schools by students. WATCH:

At this point, the COVID-19 virus is akin to a seasonal flu.  We never went to any of these lengths with flu vaccines and mandates, and we certainly never forced students to wear masks over flu concerns.

The Branch Covidians may want to take these never-ending COVID booster shots, but the rest of the nation seems ready to move on.  Enough, is enough.

Neil Oliver notices the subtle tidal shift that seems to be happening as more and more people are realizing the unscientific government COVID regulations having very detrimental consequences.

Perhaps it is the open proclamations of the medical establishment to chase a seemingly never-ending series of booster shots.  Perhaps it is the malleable definition of what it means to be vaccinated.  Perhaps it is because people are seeing a greater futility in mandates; or perhaps it is because the COVID passport consequences are now being followed to their natural conclusion.

Whatever the reason, the fickle tide has changed and now many leaders are left naked to their policy.  WATCH:

The professional political leftists are starting to rebrand themselves as having fallen victim to the “bureaucracy of COVID”, and according to those high-minded people who think very highly of themselves, we are supposed to embrace this new enlightenment from the same people who were demanding our acquiescence to their dictates.

This example of “THE AWAKENING” from an uber-progressive, Ms. Bari Weiss, on a television show, is supposed to be something I am told to appreciate.  WATCH:

.

I/We are expected to appreciate the same people who demanded our acquiescence to every policy that was created by their ridiculous fear, simply because they now admit ‘oops, my bad‘?   Sorry, not happening.

For two years they shoved their intolerant fingers in our faces, destroyed lives and livelihoods, made ridiculous demands in order to sustain their own fear, threatened our children, destroyed the economy, used COVID as an excuse to destroy families and steal an election, attempted to force us to kneel at the altar of their mask wearing and never-ending vaccine crap… and we’re just supposed to what, forgive them?

Fat chance.  That sound you heard was millions of us locking the door, turning around to face them, and now the reckoning is about to begin.

It’s easy to ignore the United Nations and World Bank pontificators as Über-leftists and global climate change fanatics.  However, of value to us ordinary peeps, is a recognition that U.N and WB outlooks permeate the World Economic Forum and Davos groups.

The multinational corporations and quasi-governmental entities in/around the World Economic Forum (WEF) are the people who call themselves “elites” and shape global policy.  As a result, when the U.N. and Word Bank start talking about widespread global famine as a result of energy policy impacts to the farming industry, specifically natural gas costs and fertilizer resulting in lower crop yields, it is worth paying attention.

We have already discussed the U.S. impact from higher fertilizer costs HERE.   As a nation we are blessed and fortunate to be living on land that is naturally healthy and fertile enough to grow food in abundance.   However, if our crop yields drop our export ability diminishes.  The world relies on the U.S. as a food basket.  You might have recently heard about foreign countries buying up U.S. farmland? Well….

In this outline from the Wall Street Journal, they note those increased costs mean less crops in all continents especially the third world regions.  That can be catastrophic for nations that already have food insecurity issues.

(Via Wall Street Journal) Christina Ribeiro do Valle, who comes from a long line of coffee growers in Brazil, is this year paying three times what she paid last year for the fertilizer she needs. Coupled with a recent drought that hit her crop hard, it means Ms. do Valle, 75, will produce a fraction of her Ribeiro do Valle brand of coffee, some of which is exported.

There is also a shortage of fertilizer. “This year, you pay, then put your name on a waiting list, and the supplier delivers it when he has it,” she said.

History rhymes, with Austria as the center of where the worst of bad things originate.

Earlier today the lower house of Parliament voted 137 to 33 passing a law mandating COVID vaccinations for all adults 18 and older.

VIENNA, Jan 20 (Reuters) – Austria’s lower house of parliament passed a bill on Thursday making COVID-19 vaccinations compulsory for adults as of Feb. 1, bringing Austria closer to introducing the first such sweeping coronavirus vaccine mandate in the European Union.

Faced with a stubbornly high number of vaccine holdouts and a surge in infections, the government said in November it was planning the mandate. Since then, it has raised the age as of which the mandate will apply, to 18 from 14.

The bill must now pass the upper house and be signed by President Alexander Van der Bellen, steps which will be largely formalities.
