"Biden has lost this war. The lunatic Democrats have lost this war. The uni-party warmongers have lost this war. NATO has lost this war. Ukraine and Zelensky have lost this war." A fun day at NATO.

Excerpt:
" Somebody in the “Joe Biden” White House apparently thinks that the operations already underway are not enough to destroy our country fast enough, so a little extra push, such as nuclear annihilation, might get’er done.

By operations underway I mean things like mRNA vaccines stealthily deleting kin, friends, and public figures from the scene… decriminalizing crime… undermining the oil industry by a thousand cuts… liquidating small business… making little children insane over sex… flooding the land with illegal immigrants… devaluing the currency… queering elections — all of these things done on purpose, by the way. And if you complain about any of it, here comes the FBI or the IRS knocking on your door.

So, to make sure that a collapse of the USA comes on-schedule, there is the useful fracas created by our government geniuses over in Ukraine that creeps day-by-day toward a quick American assisted suicide. Just to remind you, here’s how that started: In 2014, the US fomented a coup against Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych. In short order, the Russian language was banned (despite the fact that Most Ukrainians speak Russian). A piqued Russia re-po’d the Crimean Peninsula. When ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine (the Donbas provinces) tried to go their own way, Ukraine shelled and rocketed them for eight years. That was the setup."

NIFO.
It's the only way to be sure.

    It's not a war. It's a kinetic military response. [/s]

    The great thing is that we can completely pin this on Biden and Obama.

    Interesting thought: Remember Obama's "hot mic" incident with Medvedev and Obama where Obama indicated his own squishiness? I'm almost beginning to wonder whether he outright LIED to Putin to get him to invade Ukraine as a setup for all this other stuff. Trump stalled the war during his tenure, but when the Democrats got back in power they immediately pushed again for the region to go to war.

    Remember, Putin way back in the Obama years told NATO not to approach Ukraine. He told them not to give guarantees of protection. He told the US not to put "research" institutions in Ukraine either. Yet we did. Years and years of provocation just so we can claim Putin as the aggressor. What a joke.

    Totally Wow. Kunstler has it spot on.

    The Deep State involvement in Ukraine is a massive assisted suicide program, promoted by a media from hell. The NATO tanks are being blown up> Well, send the Ukrainian soldiers on foot to "find" the mines. .

    As someone who has lived in Donbass, Crimea, and in Russia, I can not adequately express my repugnance at the actions of my own government. The US has become the old USSR, and Russia has become a beacon of Liberty.

    That article says it all...

    In future It may be that Russia will rescue the US from it's moral quagmire. I can't think of any other country that would do so.. .

    Soros will never be anything but enemy to Russia, he will use US to get his way as long as he can. In't he about ancient by now? He causes so much trouble, from US to Ukraine, any bad has him behing it. Zelinskyy is an actor, playing the role, but not calling the shots, just calling for money.As long as these folks run that head of globalism, we will not be free, too much connetion to the Bidens and Onew Worlder types.As to saving our money, from them, we just pulled out enough to buy a new Camaro to go with mine! Screw you JB!

      Well done on the Camaro!! Have to have real goods and real value.....
      Soros has a son - that is just as bad as he is. They look to undermine currency as george did to gain personal wealth and then spend that on overthrow of democracies to gain control of even more..... IMHO...

    Folks, if you do NOT own Physical Gold. You should.

    Now, I don't want you thinking this is an investment.
    I CANNOT Give investment Advice.
    The PERCENTAGE of your SAVINGS is important.

    Say you have $100k in cash (like most Americans, LOL)...
    I would proffer that you take UP TO 20% of that and plop it into physical GOLD/SILVER.

    This is an economic HEDGE. The most you can lose is 100% of 20% (so 20%). BUT Gold/Silver have NEVER Declined by 100% and realistically cannot, although they could both get cut by 66% as they have been that low. That's your RISK.
    Always start with your RISK in mind.

    What's the upside. Safety. Physical gold cannot legally be bailed in. All of your bank deposits WILL BE.

    If the dollar collapses (it's on that path, but the road can be long and winding)... Then lets assume we hit Weimar levels of inflation, and your $80K goes to $8K, or $800 in value.

    Your house, and other assets will hold their value.
    But your GOLD/SILVER... Well.. that $20K
    swaps out for reverse of the above.
    $200K if a 10:1 drop, and $2 million for a 100:1
    Drop.

    Your 20% "Hedge" covered your entire bank account! (Cash Position).

    Now, let's be real. That was a trick in math.
    The resulting "value" of gold/silver only changed in terms of DOLLARS.

    In reality. While it does protect you. You must realize that what you can BUY with SILVER never truly changes much.

    Roughly said, 1.25 Ozs of SILVER in 1977 could buy 10 Gallons of Gas.
    Today, Silver is ~ 25/oz, so 1.25 oz ~ $30

    And 10 Gallons of Gas is about $35

    So, the $6 for 10 Gallons -> 35...
    Is about 600% devaluation over 50 years.

    So, you cannot truly "profit" from owning these.
    You can simply still be able to buy what you could before. (Alas, with only 20% of your cash value).

    And I used 20% because most people use 5% and most people PUSH the upside.

    I can promise you one thing. There are arguments for $500/oz of Silver. The arguments are valid, but may not be accurate...

    The Promise: You will NOT LIKE a world where silver is $500/oz... UNLESS you had >> 100% of your wealth in silver. And even then. It would suck out loud.

    Personally, 5% just is not enough of a hedge.
    The goal with 20% is that I will NEVER sell it at a loss. I will leave it to my children, then they get a free hedge...

    I will not "trade" this stuff easily. I only accumulate.

    But you do you.
    Meanwhile if BRICS decide on a GOLD backed security. Holding Gold (and silver), will allow you to buy some of that currency if you so desire, regardless of which side of the inflationary impact you fell...

      The absolute best way to go with long term investments - as a hedge against inflation. I am not a person that can give investment advice either. But well stated and agree.........

    2nd place in the world in terms of explored reserves of manganese ores;
    2nd largest iron ore reserves in the world;
    3rd place in Europe (13th place in the world) in shale gas reserves (22 trillion cubic meters);
    8th place in the world in coal reserves (33.9 billion tons);
    Ukraine is an agricultural country:
    1st place in the world in exports of sunflower and sunflower oil;
    4th place in the world in barley production and 4th place in barley exports;
    5th largest producer and 4th largest exporter of corn in the world;
    3rd largest producer of potatoes in the world;
    4th largest rye producer in the world;
    5th place in the world in bee production (75,000 tons);
    5th place in the world in wheat exports;
    Ukraine is an industrialized country:
    2nd largest in Europe and 8th largest in the world in terms of installed capacity of nuclear power plants;
    3rd place in Europe and 11th in the world in terms of rail network length (21,700 km);
    5th largest iron exporter in the world
    4th largest exporter of turbines for nuclear power plants in the world;
    4th world’s largest manufacturer of rocket launchers;
    3rd place in the world in clay exports
    5th place in the world in titanium exports
    8th place in the world in exports of ores and concentrates;

      So the 2014 color revolution Diane Newland admitted to starting... Never happened?

      Putin wasn't mislead by Merkel as she admitted?

      The SHELLING Of Donbas/Donesk Regions were not real? And they did not keep increasing with Joe's announcement that Putin was going to move in?

      Finally... Please review the financial history of Ukraine from 2000 until now?
      How much did we have to keep giving them in $$$ to keep them alive? (I mean, all of those resources, and they were basically bankrupted and collapsing). they had to be bailed out like 3 times. (Although, that could just be what the bankers do to countries when they can)...

      And I have Russian friends who lived in Ukraine.
      Zelenski did ban the Russian Language.
      Also, they sent me photos of the Shelling that was taking place YEARS before this conflict became real.

      That combined with the CLEAR LIES about how well Ukraine was doing is all I need to know that we are being misled. Add in Joes Strong Arming to fire the prosecutor, and you realize it's a money laundering system...

      Also, lookup the story that they were GOING to sign the MINSK agreement until Zelenski met with Boris and nixxed it. This has been pretty wildly reported.

      I am with Trump. Lets stop the war, to stop the deaths on both sides.

      But lets stop moving NATO closer to the Russian borders and claiming Russia is expanding AT NATO.

      I agree, Ukraine has a lot of raw materials and minerals, and also produces a lot of food grains. That's what makes it so attractive to the Deep State and the oligarchs/billionaires who are trying to control the world. One example, the Azov battalion which terrorized Mariupol from 2014-2022,, was a private army created and funded by some Ukrainian billionaire, I can't recall his name right now. He was protecting his ass-ets...
