U.S. Announces $5.9 Billion in Military and Budget Aid to Ukraine
December 31st, 2024Let’s pause to remember this moment in Congress when Mike Johnson gave the Democrats the billions of dollars they wanted for Ukraine. The House Sergeant at Arms threatened to fine me for sharing this video. That same man still works for Mike Johnson.pic.twitter.com/wvFKr3Xzph

The United States on Monday announced nearly $6 billion in additional military and budget assistance for Ukraine as President Joe Biden uses his final weeks in office to surge aid to Kyiv before President-elect Donald Trump takes power.
Why would anybody loan money to a country that is trillions in debt already? Why is the USD still the basic world currency? If we’re not headed for the biggest crash ever, then we must be headed for a takeover by our lenders.
@Snowman all by design

Thank you for the reference. It’s a long book to listen to, but the introduction alone is fascinating.
I found the author also on youtube. He gives a summary of his experiences and thoughts in an interview at

He seems to be extraordinarily good at holding back his emotions so he can rationally analyze, understand and deal with the things he finds out, however shocking or threatening they are.
I think most people aren’t as stoic and have to take in very bad news in small bites so as not to choke on it. To do that, we leave aside some part or other of the ugly reality and focus on the parts that are less shocking because we already have some inkling of them. But I fear the fragile folks, to say nothing of the woke, don’t have time now to mull things over so gradually; while we are thinking, the enemy is acting.
Perhaps the woke have been so appalled at the very possibility that such things could have been planned and are being carried out that their minds, in self-defense, have frozen out any recognition of these facts, however obvious they are becoming.
As someone wrote on Zero Hedge, the fact that we have been a high-trust society is our undoing now that totally unrustworthy and evil people have infiltrated and taken over the top leadership of our govt, businesses, churches, entertainment, etc. Especially for those who have always believed that our institutions are here to make everything better for us and have been doing so, it must be very hard to turn their thinking around 180 degrees and stop trusting the standard authorities. That must be why so many people got the vaccine, just as so many drank the kool-aid at Jonestown decades earlier.
Give them some articles or a book, and they won’t read them. Talk to them, and they’ll get mad at you. How to awaken the hypnotized when the entire mental world they live in is run by a cabal of master hypnotists? We can’t kidnap adults to deprogram them as was done in the past with the victims of cults like Hari Krishna. What, then?
