As readers will be aware, almost everything of concern that’s going on, swirling around the war on Russia, is connected. The sanctions regime that was supposed to bring Russia to its knees has backfired spectacularly, and the WEF and Anglosphere dominated coalition of the Great Reset—essentially, NATO and the EU—is suffering the economic consequences. Nevertheless, the Globalist Ruling Class appears determined to see through their long desired confrontation with Putin’s Russia. So, some of the events of the day to keep in mind.
I'm sure the rocket surgeons over at Foggy Bottom have already identified just the perfect "leading person" to succeed a Russian President with an 83% approval rating* and 81% support* for his war effort. In this case, the "cure" would almost certainly be worse than the disease. Putin can be brutal, but, at least, he is somewhat measured and calculating and, thus, readable.
**Yes, Russian polling is inherently sketchy, but these figures came in early April from Levada, the same group that the NYT heralded as Russia's most-reliable pollsters when celebrating a brief 2021 dip in Putin's approval rating (down into the high 50s).
Last week, the Ukrainian newspaper Ukrayinska Pravda reported that British Prime Minister Boris Johnson used a visit to Kyiv last month to pressure Zelenskyy to abandon the prospects of peace talks with Russia.
Based on unnamed sources from Zelenskyy's inner circle, the Ukrainian media outlet's report appeared to vindicate concerns that the West is more interested in inflicting damage on Russia than securing a diplomatic resolution to the war, which is now in its third month.
"the “Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act,” which would allow the president to declare an “energy emergency” giving him the ability to regulate prices by preventing fuel companies from selling their products at prices deemed to be “unconscionably excessive” and “exploiting” such an emergency."
I seem to remember Denninger commenting on this a while back, but if you want to completely cause someone to stop making a product, simply remove their ability to make any money with regards to said product. Quite diabolical I would say...
Good point. One thing I have wondered... how all of this is "playing in Pilsen." Are the common EU citizens now relatively cynical regarding issues of war and peace? Or are they willing to be socially militant to avoid war? Do they hold a grudge against Russia? Does the post- WWII pacifism persist? Who knows because our media does not report and we do not decide. I have longstanding friends in Austria, Slovenia, and Croatia (since the '80s) with whom I have not breached the topic. My fault. I have only informed them of the corruption of the 2020 election and of the "common people" views here in the U.S. Sadly, my sense is that they have more faith in the Biden admin than they did in Trump. There is no overestimating the power of the media either here or in other countries/continents.
Regime change? Hmmm....

Well, according to Steny Hoyer, we are at war and we shouldn’t be spending time criticizing Biden!? Did I miss something?

And the Latin America countries see all the money going to Ukraine, and wonder why they don’t get any.
I’m surprised Biden has not normalized relations with Nicaragua, Cuba, and Venezuela.
Don't forget their latest in "Hey lets destroy the USA agenda":

Something to the effect of 'Don't underestimate Joe's ability to F__ things up?
