As Congress reconvenes after its latest holiday sabbatical, another $60 billion in funding for the never ending war in Ukraine is on the docket. Or it may be, in a spirit of generosity, that Congress increases that funding level even as the southern border continues to flow unimpeded with undocumented illegals of nefarious intent.
What defies understanding is that America is no longer the industrial giant which once waged a WW II kind of war; nor is it the country that still values God’s divine providence nor does it have the spiritual awareness of the country’s founding but no one has bothered to inform Congressional elitists who are driving the country into a ditch.
Sen. Ron Johnson (Wisc) recently dropped a series of truth bombs that ought to scare the bejesus out of most Americans.
Sen. Ron Johnson drops a series of truth bombs—about Covid, Event 201, the WHO, the globalist takeover plan and more—live on Fox News.

Johnson urged Americans to “pull their heads out of the sand, open their eyes and understand that the country is going down a very dangerous path, a path laid out and planned by an elite group of people that want to take control over our lives.”
Johnson explained
“that’s what they’re doing, bit by bit, they do it by increasing government spending and increase the size of government. These WHO amendments that are going to be voted on in 2024 are frightening (emphasis on frightening) as it risks taking away all our sovereignty. The American people need to wake up to the dangers of the moment.”
The WHO amendments Johnson referred to are Biden Administration’s “extensive’ drafted amendments that allow unilateral intervention in the event of a purported international health emergency including arbitrary establishment of global emergencies without regard to national sovereignty. Will those amendments come before the Senate for ratification since they are not identified as a ‘treaty’ requiring Senate approval? It may be recalled that Trump ended US involvement with the WHO in July, 2020.
As Sen. Johnson alerts the country, Ukraine is only one extreme VIP topic to be dealt with by the 2024 Congress which has proven to be a force of collusion between the globalist/uniparty career politicians. Those defectors are intent on disregarding tough contentious topics that desperately need perseverance and a decision including international foreign policy crisis, the Houthis and Russian warships in the Red Sea, American supported genocide in Israel, awakened sleeper cells and cyber attacks, mid eastern Israel war with Lebanon, Syria and Iran, ceaseless streams of undesirable immigrants, second amendment violations, American ‘defense’ of Taiwan, BRICS and the US dollar, utter fiscal catastrophe; well, you get the idea.
In an Easter interview, Speaker Mike Johnson has been openly negotiating with the Democrats since the Republican House majority may be down to perhaps one vote. He also suggested the addition of “some important innovations” to the funding bill, which may include some sort of loan guarantee which will never be repaid. Meanwhile, House Intel Chair Rep. Mike Turner (Ohio) predicted that Ukraine will have ‘overwhelming support’ in Congress.
It is impossible to grasp that Members of Congress including the Speaker still believe the Ukraine war is necessary to American national security interests when it is well known that the war is more like homage to its military donor base; a warped financing triage which allows Electeds to grovel for reliable campaign funds.
As Rep. Tom Massie (Ky,) who serves on the Rules Committee predicted, Speaker Johnson will bring the Ukraine appropriation to the House Floor with a suspended rule meaning there will be no meaningful debate or amendments allowed.
Despite expertise from Scott Ritter, Col. Douglas MacGregor, Larry Johnson, Elon Musk and others the US lost the war some months ago. However, the US Hegemon rarely accepts defeat as a tireless pursuit of military conquest has become an ingrained tradition rather than a quest for peace; just as US presence remains in Syria to continue the pilfer of Syrian oil years after Putin blocked HRCs no-fly zone.
The moral is that once the US gets a foot in the door, the rest is history. The difference is that the collective west is foolish to believe that, as a result of the recent Crocus City Hall attack, Russia is vulnerable to continued drone attack while its massive valuable natural resources remain more attractive than anything Syria ever had to offer.
As Ukraine remains the most immediate, pivotal issue indicative of US willingness to instigate WW III, Russian President Vladimir Putin put out a red line regarding the recent US built nuclear-capable F 16 fighter jets. Putin identified the plane as
“legitimate targets if they are used against Russian troops by third countries wherever they might be. Since the F16 could carry nuclear weapons, Moscow would have to take account of that in its military planning…. If they supply F16s and as pilots are being trained, we will destroy the aircraft just as we destroyed today’s tanks, armoured vehicles and other equipment including multiple rocket launchers.”
Putin further affirmed,
“We have no aggressive intentions to these states; the idea we will attack other Baltic states, is nonsense, complete drivel. If western nations or NATO put F16’s in other Baltic countries, Russia will attack F16 wherever they are located.”
Since F16 runway requirements are not available in Ukraine, presumably Poland may become the fighter plane’s home base.
Soon after the Crocus attack with 144 fatalities, Putin vowed retribution.
“It is important for us to expose both the perpetrators and all links in that chain, including the beneficiaries of that crime.” “We know that the crime was carried out by the hand of radical Islamists with an ideology that the Muslim world has fought for centuries,” Putin said. “We want to know who ordered it.”
Several days after the attack, Alexander Bortinov, Director of the FSB, Russia’s powerful heir to the KGB declared authoritatively that
“We believe that the action was prepared by both the Islamist radicals themselves and was facilitated by Western special services.”
Nikolai Patroshev, secretary of the Russian Federation Security Council reiterated there were ‘many indications of Ukraine involvement.” If in fact Ukraine is responsible, how far behind is the CIA?
Soon after Crocus, Russian Duma Deputies submitted an appeal to the Russian Prosecutor General’s Office demanding that western ‘judiciaries’ lead an investigation of its own western intel services; suggesting that only western politicians would have interest in such an attack as a “manifestation of the inhumanity, hatred and cruelty” of Russia’s “external enemies.”
Citing other international anti-terrorism conventions including a UN Security Council resolution, under Chapter VII of the UN Charter, all states are required to prevent and suppress the financing of terrorist acts, and to freeze assets and funds of any persons guilty of terrorism.
In addition, chief of Russia’s Foreign Intel Service Sergey Naryshkin disclosed the US and UK as sources of the Nord Stream explosion.
“We had indirect clues to who did it. These indirect signs were left by the perpetrators themselves. The mosaic has come together. And this mosaic obviously points to the authors.”

Four days after the Crocus attack, at 5 am during a full moon on March 26, the Francis Scott Key Bridge outside of Baltimore suffered what may have been a cyber attack by unknown sources – given the lack of substantiated evidence and many unanswered questions, the status of an investigation remains uncertain. Curiously, the video shows lights go off and then on as almost the entire bridge collapses in one strategic fell swoop as if barely in contact between the cargo ship and load bearing pylons.
