It's CYA time for Ukraine in DC. No-one wants to be left holding baby. In 6 months' time or even less, it will be same for the neocons with Israel. Meanwhile the first domino has fallen: Nuland.

You can't go on a 30+ year bender, hock the family jewels, deindustrialize, sell your technological prowess for pennies on the dollar to China for access to their market, throw your white middle-class under the bus and then think you can bluff the Russians, Chinese, Iranians and others.

The chickens are coming home to roost.

The two aren't mutually exclusive. Even a globalist scumbag like Scholz knows that he has to keep an eye on what the peasants are thinking. AdF is gaining ground massively, and the war is increasingly unpopular among the Volk.

"We are governed by people who could not care less about the American people, or any other people." I'd tweak that, Steve. We are ruled by people who haven't yet realised that if things go belly up, they too will be dead. They still think that they have no skin in the game.

Listen to Doug Macgregor on that.

Another point Macgregor made which was striking, pardon the expression, was his comment on the mediocritre, middling quality of the German generals’ conversation itself. He says we’ve succeeded at “Americanizing” - or dumbing down, rendering insignificant, the German military and, one could argue, the whole of Europe (the UK too!) over the past 80 years. So imho, this conversation reveals the stupidity, vapidness and fecklessness of Nato - but then, what did we (US) expect? Germany though, in part, has perhaps paid the highest price. Hopefully as commenters posit, deer-in-the-headlights Scholz will refuse all the “bluffing” (“I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house down!”) and posturing…

These people are indeed mediocrities, but dangerous ones. Maybe it's the clotshots; maybe it's something in the water, but there's no doubt we seem to growing more stupid with time.

When your president, generals, religious ministers, librarians, teachers, anchormen and others believe that men can become women, and vice versa, you know they've been dumded down.

I don't think there will much to move on to. Each time the failure and the consequences get bigger. There is clearly a rising groundswell of popular anger at what the neocons are doing. I think their only plays left are WW3 or a full-blown assault on Americans themselves in or around November.
