After Tucker’s Putin Interview, the Deep State Strikes Back

That didn’t take long. With Tucker Carlson’s interview with Russia’s Vladimir Putin nearing 200 million views at last count, and with the latest Ukraine funding measure facing an uncertain future in the U.S. Congress, the swampy Deep State in DC panicked and launched a rather obvious psychological operation designed to reignite U.S. fear of Russia through their lapdog media. Here is CNN reporting on the newest Russian threat that the U.S./wider Western world are supposed to be very afraid of:

The US has new intelligence on Russian military capabilities related to its efforts to deploy a nuclear anti-satellite system in space, according to multiple sources familiar with the intelligence.

The intelligence was briefed to Congress and key US allies, and some lawmakers say it is serious enough that it should be declassified and made public. While the intelligence is concerning, multiple senior members of Congress briefed on the information on Wednesday emphasized that it does not pose an immediate threat to the US or its interests.

The system remains under development and is not yet in orbit, according to three US officials familiar with the intelligence. It’s not clear how far the technology has progressed, one of the officials said. A separate US official told CNN the threat does not involve a weapon that would be used to attack humans.

It was not immediately clear whether the intelligence referred to a nuclear-powered, anti-satellite capability or a nuclear-armed capability.

 . . . Earlier Wednesday, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Republican Rep. Mike Turner of Ohio, ignited a firestorm on Capitol Hill when he issued a cryptic statement announcing that the panel had “information concerning a serious national security threat.”

In a letter to lawmakers inviting them to view the intelligence in the committee’s classified spaces, he said that it related to a “destabilizing foreign military capability that should be known by all congressional policymakers.”

Immediately, lawmakers began tramping down to the House basement to learn what the intelligence was. Some left underwhelmed. One Democratic member with deep national security experience said that they had never before received that kind of urgent summons over a national security matter during their time in Congress — and that the intelligence they saw when they arrived was not urgent enough to justify Turner’s alarm-pulling.

It is telling that CNN is hedging their bets here. Perhaps they are not willing to go all in on another bonanza of CIA lies about foreign countries in the wake of – Saddam’s got WMD, everything’s fine in Afghanistan, Qaddafi’s a madman, etc. Whatever the case, folks in the West should be ready for more psyops about Russia in the coming weeks and months to keep them from having any feelings of friendliness towards Russia.

More on that in minute. But first, a little more on what’s going in the Ukraine and with the latest funding measure. Scott McKay is correct; it isn’t about helping the Ukraine:

But it’s very obvious that the interests of the Ukrainians and the interests of their kleptocratic government – and more to the point, the interests of the corrupt Washington elite who are openly telling us that “aid” to Ukraine is really more about funding for the U.S. defense industry, while behind the scenes that “aid” is little more than a money laundry for D.C.-connected nonprofits – are not the same.

And it is worse than Mr. McKay lets on. Globalist totalitarian groups like BlackRock are poised to profit immensely from a prolonged destructive conflict in the Ukraine while regular folks there (and here) fall into penury:

War is Good for Business. The greater the destruction, the greater the stranglehold on Ukraine by “private investors”:

“BlackRock and JPMorgan Chase are helping the Ukrainian government set up a reconstruction bank to steer public seed capital into rebuilding projects that can attract hundreds of billions of dollars in private investment.” (FT, op cit)

The Privatization of Ukraine was launched in November 2022 in liaison  with BlackRock’s  consulting company  McKinsey, a public relations firm which has largely been responsible for co-opting corrupt politicians and officials Worldwide not to mention scientists and intellectuals on behalf of powerful financial interests. 

“The Kyiv government engaged BlackRock’s consulting arm in November to determine how best to attract that kind of capital, and then added JPMorgan in February. Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced last month that the country was working with the two financial groups and consultants at McKinsey.

BlackRock and Ukraine’s Ministry of Economy signed a Memorandum of Understanding in November 2022.

In late December 2022, president Zelensky and BlackRock’s CEO Larry Fink agreed on an investment strategy.

 . . . The privatization plan enunciated in December entitled “Development of SMB 2023: opportunities, sustainability and recovery” is now being implemented.

According to Vitaliy Koval, in 2024 the Fund plans to put up:

… for privatization about a thousand objects that open up new opportunities for business. These assets will be auctioned, ensuring a fair and transparent process.

Vitaliy Koval, Chairman of the State Property Fund of Ukraine, presented the 2024 SPFU plan. He emphasized that small and medium-sized business will be main beneficiary of this process.

The small and medium sized businesses including agricultural and industrial SME will be wiped out. Many of these assets will be purchased at a negative price. 

 . . . Ukraine is in the stranglehold of Big Money. BlackRock and JPMorgan.

Ukraine’s Privatization Initiative sets a precedent. Entire countries can be privatized.

Wars are money-making operations for the Military Industrial Complex (MIC).

There have been 3 peace initiatives since 2014 including Minsk 1 and 2 agreements, and Istanbul (March-April 2022) of which the draft was signed by representatives of Ukraine and Russia. The implementation of these Peace initiatives was the object of sabotage.

Peace as well as “Cease Fires” are not “Good for Business”.

“Ukraine’s people desperately need a future based on welfare and peace, but in reality Ukraine is being driven towards the kind of huge indebtedness that leads to subservience and dominance.” (Bharat Dogra, Global Research, June 28, 2023)

The outcome is mass poverty and social devastation of an entire country, under the guise of “reconstruction”.

This asset-stripping of the Ukraine is, by the way, precisely what the West had in mind for Russia post-communism, and which she largely got in the immediate aftermath in the 1990s. One of the main reasons Western leaders loathe Vladimir Putin (and try so hard to make all of us hate him, too) is because he put a stop to it:

Boris Yeltsin bore the greatest burden because of the timing of his term as President as he watched the oligarchs steal everything in sight. His well-known drinking problem and heart condition were surely the result of having to go along with the whole charade. Nevertheless, he knew that in the future stewardship of Vladimir Putin, Russia would be “protected”.  For just as the vulture capitalists from both Russia and the West executed their plans (and contracts) to strip Russia bare, so, too, had an ultra-secret group of Russian patriots and nationalists, loyal politicians and government officials made an even stronger compact to take it all back … when the right time presented itself.

 . . . Which is exactly what Putin set about to do, regardless of Western reaction and/or threats from all the usual suspects.  Putin would not, under any circumstances, allow predatory capitalists to destroy Russia.  He quite deliberately — under cover of “national security” — initiated all of the necessary legal process and governmental procedure to reclaim that which had been stolen from the Russian people.  This particular tack was especially effective, and foolproof, since the AAA [Anglo-American Axis—W.G.] has used the same pretext to take over nations large and small for centuries.

Nevertheless, the West could only recoil in utter shock that the Russian President would actually protect his nation in this fashion.  That Putin put the interests of Russia and its citizenry before the bankers … and the industrialists … and the powerful oligarchs was seen as the ultimate betrayal.  After all, his actions ran counter to the back room deal that was cut by the real power-brokers who negotiated the “fall of the Wall”.  Communism — Soviet-style — was to be terminated ONLY if the oligarchs were granted unfettered access to Russia’s wealth.  And so they were … … … for the time being.

. . . No one understands Russian history of the 20th century better than the justifiably indignant citizens of the USSR.   These folks suffered great trials and tribulations at the hands of Communist thugs who were put into power by Western bankers and the Anglo-American political class.  They know exactly what happened to their Motherland in the wake of the totally fraudulent Bolshevik Revolution.  They also know precisely who was responsible for such a catastrophic social, economic and political cataclysm.

. . .Only by understanding the temperament of those Russian peoples who lived through the unmitigated disaster of Communism, which was foisted on them by foreign agents with a surreptitious agenda, will the forces that stand behind Putin be correctly understood. In this regard, it is not Putin, the President, that the Western Powers are dealing with. It is a proud and patriotic Russian movement that sprang up with the awareness that the Anglo-American Axis was responsible for their lost century. This truth cannot be erased from history by airbrushing a few internet sites which are controlled by the CIA. Nor can the many odious and therefore inconvenient historical facts be eradicated from the Russian psyche when so much pain and suffering was caused to so many.

There is a great opportunity now for the peoples of the States and Russia. Our goals converge – the overthrow of the rule of degenerate globalist oligarchs and the establishment of more religiously traditional societies:

President Putin’s close alignment with the Patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church — His Holiness Patriarch Kirill —  has become the cause for the deeply religious and traditional people of Russia to become enamored with him.  His socially conservative agenda is much more in sync with Russian sensibilities as it is protective of a refined culture that is at odds with the permissiveness of an ever-coarsening Western society.  In this particular area of divergence, Putin’s Russia has served as a countervailing force to the AAA modus operandi of sewing seeds of social chaos and political disorder wherever they set their sights.  The propagation of overly permissive societal norms is their signature strategy in this regard, which Putin repeatedly bumps up against.

We should seize this opportunity while we can, to defy the globalists and their plans for never-ending enmity and conflict between the U.S. and Russia. Red-State folks should be particularly interested in doing so, as they remain more devoted to Christianity than the rest of the States (particularly the South, the ‘Bible Belt’ of the United States). Russia, contra the phony CIA/Deep State caricatures of her, is a country with a deep Christian history. Her life in Christ is more than 1,000 years old, as she was baptized in the year of our Lord 988. The treasures she has given to the Church are invaluable – from earlier saints like St Sergius of Radonezh (+1392) and St Alexander of Svir (+1533) to later saints like St Seraphim of Sarov (+1833) and St John Maximovitch (+1966); to amazing church architecture; to millions of new martyrs and confessors in the 20^th century under the communists; to 36,000 new churches being built in Russia since communism fell in 1991 (more than 1,000 per year) – there is much folks in the States should be glad to share and rejoice in and explore with the Russian people. One may add to that laws inspired by the Orthodox way supporting big families, banning LGBT propaganda, and reducing abortions.

The United States has let themselves be led around by the lies of the Deep State long enough. It is time to turn the page on U.S.-Russian relations and try to build a friendship based on shared ideals and experiences. The benefits would be felt around the world, as countries currently caught in the crossfire between them – like the Ukraine and Syria – would also find peace and respite. But, to echo Mr. McKay one more time, it will require replacing the servants/enablers of the Deep State like Senators Kennedy, Cassidy, McConnell, and the rest before we can begin that long overdue process (a fleeting thought of our own:  Southern secession from DC would probably help Dixie a lot as it regards foreign relations).
