Jim Kunstler, "Crashing’ and Burnin’"
*"Crashing’ and Burnin’"* by Jim Kunstler "Historians of the future, boiling acorns over their campfires, will wonder that amidst all the global strife of the 2020s, Americans barely noticed that the US government went to war on its own citizens. Was there something in the water - or, more specifically, in the Pepsi Cola? Or did those “vaccines,” which were so popular as an emblem of their obedience to The Science, turn their brains into something like an Oreo McFlurry? However it happened, said citizens marched themselves ardently into the VAERS database to receive gold stars on t... read more

How Solid Are US War Guarantees?[image: undefined] When several NATO nations revealed that they had dozens of Russian-made MiG-29s, the idea arose to fly them to Ukraine and turn them over to Ukrainian pilots familiar with the MiGs. America would provide F-16s to replace the MiGs. Poland had an even better idea. Warsaw would fly its 27 MiG fighter jets to the U.S. Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany. The planes would be turned over to the Americans there, repainted and flown to Ukraine. How to get the MiGs to Ukraine’s pilots would be left to the Americans.

How Biden Can End the War in Ukraine*David T. Pyne* *Russia-Ukraine War, Europe* The administration’s highest priority right now should be to incentivize the Ukrainian government to conclude a compromise peace agreement with Russia to provide Putin with a face-saving “exit ramp” to allow Russia to end the war. Nearly two weeks after Russia invaded Ukraine, the United States, NATO, and the Russian Federation remain trapped in an escalation spiral of increasing economic sanctions, military actions, cyber exchanges, and nuclear threats that could escalate with potentially catastrophic consequences for the world.

Washington has helped strengthen the sovereignty of Kazakhstan—strategically located near China, Russia, and Iran—and the Bush administration negotiated a strategic partnership with Ka... read more

Biden's war on energy becomes war on transportationNY Post: President Joe Biden rightly announced a ban on Russian energy imports Tuesday — though only after a bipartisan group in Congress twisted his arm. Biden had resisted the move, despite the purchases funding Vladimir Putin’s deadly Ukraine invasion, worried it would further boost gas prices (and further tank his polling). But he’s doing plenty to jack up prices through his policies here at home. On Monday, his own Environmental Protection Agency announced it wants to slap new rules on tractor-trailers, buses, delivery vans and moving trucks. The regs, aimed at cutting nitr... read more

Democrats war against voter integrity looks like a loserPaul Bedard: Election integrity has skyrocketed to one of the top concerns in the congressional midterm elections, with huge majorities of Democrats, independents, and Republicans citing it as a driving issue.

For Republicans, Rasmussen Reports found that 89% said the issue is “important,” with 62% calling it “very important.” Among Democrats, 78% called it ... read more

Gas prices are well past $4 per gallon, inflation is high across the economy, and Russia’s war in Ukraine has led to a worldwide economic disruption. With all of that happening at once, is it now time for more stimulus checks? Energy economist Mark Wolfe made that case in a recent article for CNN. His argument was that with inflation costing Americans as much as $300 per month, the government should step up with more stimulus checks. “The fastes... read more

During the 2020 election, foreign policy-related questions barely came up in any of the debates between President Donald Trump and Biden.
