The US deployment was a "manifestation of American commitment to continued deterrence along NATO's Eastern flank", said Ben Hodges, the former commander of US Army forces in Europe.

The Western military alliance installed similar battalions in Poland and Baltic states Estonia and Latvia as a deterrent against possible Russian aggressionafter Crimea joined the Russian Federation following a referendum on March 16, 2014.
If history repeats itself and someone commands an attack whenever, they could well face winter (or an allegedly glaciation) as the Napoleonic or Nazi troops faced in theirs day.

Vesti's talk show withVladimir Soloviev is kind of like RT'sCrosstalk,without so much interruption. In this clip the panelweighs in on Hillary, Trump and the madness of American politics. These guys are great!

Yaakov Kedmi, public figure, Israel: "When we look at this quarrel in the USA, we should remember that Mrs. Clinton used to be the Secretary of State. She used to set the foreign policy, or rather tried to... She wanted to become president. But she's behaving like a fishmonger in the way she speaks and everything. She's a hysterical, infantile lady, who is suffering from megalomania on the one hand, and from insecurities, both her own and those contracted from her husband. And she is unloading all of this.

It seems to me that the Trump era has ushered in some valuable lessons for the public about how corruption actually works, down to the nuts & bolts, the real "how to." Of course, a lot of it has been out there for a long time, especially in books, but it seems that exposure is happening with a higher profile and at a faster pace now, mainly as a result of pro-Trump and anti-Trump pundits and their audiences trying to convince each other of something. I think this is a good thing, ultimately. I just hope that the facts/evidence ultimately prevail.

"Don't you KNOW that Trump is selling migrant children into sex slavery to pay off his debts to Russia?!? Where've you been?!?!?!"

This kind of statement seen daily in responses to Facebook posts, Tweets, YouTube videos, articles, etc. is indicative of the tsunami of conspiracy writing that has flooded our media since Trump's inauguration, most of which seems to be built by wildly extrapolating on a few "accepted facts" (real or fake) and little evidence, and then just disappears with no follow-up, no more dots to connect. But there's compelling stuff, too, if it actually describes the methods and practices of corrupt individuals, especially when following the money.

Maybe I'm wrong but it seems to me that a lot of previously unaware folks have learned something from follow-the-money cases like these examples:
- illicit payoffs to politicians in the form of board seats or other corporate jobs for their lackeys, who are the ones ostensibly paid and the politicians gets the kick-back through a network of worldwide cooperating banks
- migration crises artificially enlarged by the encouragement, coaching, false promises, monetary aid and transportation aid to those willing to migrate
- foreign aid being mainly payoffs to corrupt heads of state and kickbacks to the corporations of the "aiding" nation, who in turn kick back to politicians enacting foreign aid
- charitable foundations being fronts for pay-to-play, stealing the money by calling it "expenses" and laundering it through banking networks
- public grant money being funneled by recipients into political donations to influence the continued flow of grant money
- corporate tricks to avoid taxation

There are many more. And still more that aren't so easy for anyone to grasp, because the motivations don't appear to be money. And still more with low profiles, things the public isn't ready for, like how gun/human/drug trafficking is enabled and who it really funds.

Here's a very good exposé of profit from the endless homeless crisisdone by Tiffany FitzHenry who is famous for exposing how Hollywood (her term for the corporate movie, TV, music, sports, and other mass entertainment businesses) works, and controls its stars to serve Deep State agendas. It's an interview with San Francisco mayoral candidateEllen Lee Zhou, a social worker who has been mercilessly vilified for speaking frankly about some of the city's problems.

Ignore the senstational/clickbait title. It is broadly about the one-party political climate of San Francisco, and the resulting oppression, but the homeless discussion is outstanding.I think I see why Trump keeps bringing up the California homeless problem. In short, 20,000+ homeless on the streets of San Francisco means that local "help the homeless" NGOs have sprung up like mushrooms and have acquired gov't sanction and gov't funding to the tune of $70,000 per homeless person per year. With that huge amount of money, the homeless are apparently supplied with free drugs and needles, subsistence sustenance, someone to tell their troubles to, and precious little more. The rest is stolen. She also goes into the influence of family dynasties on San Francisco, and other things.

Follow-up interview with Ellen Lee Zhou published today. Her billboards in SF depicting human trafficking are being illegally removed accompanied by threats against her, charges of "racist," "terrorist," "Go back to China," etc.

国际海事组织,“pussyscouts”是一个最近涉及p的极端rogramming and abuse of children as tools of political agendas. I think it's safe to assume the children aren't the ones creating these videos, and there are several of them.

Together with a very "convincing" picture showing Trump and Team during the observation of the military action that lead "to his death":

A couple of things happened today that made me think a shift may have occurred in Washington and the general public. At work, my employer had his usual radio station on which for the last several years has been anti Trump with the usual liberal view point. Today they where playing the comments of Rep. Steve Scalese, R-La. from a press conference held with Rep. Jim Jordan condemning "the Soviet style" closed door, secret meeting, without due process being conducted by Adam Schiff and Pelosi with the "impeachment investigation". Later in the day I watched the interview which I've posted. Jordan gives an interesting account of how Schiff is presiding over this investigation since Jordan, along with a few other Republicans have insisted on being present. Schiff comes off as being insane and power hungry. Sitting in a dark basement room, forcing his will on all involved. Alas, such is the nature of snaky swamp creatures. He really needs to be kicked out, what a nut!

Republicans seem to be finally stepping up. Its really become so crazy, no one can tolerate it anymore (I hope). The Dems are having a lot more pressure placed on them now it seems. GOOD!!!!!!!

好消息!民主党击败了今天they where forced to follow procedure and hold a bipartisan vote on whether impeachment should proceed. All Republicans voted against it and 2 Dems. So, the crazy trial of Schiff and Polosi is OVER! Hallelujah! I was heartened and impressed by this press conference given by the Republicans. It was stressed the Rule of Law will be followed, I hope there is follow through on that! Towards the end, a reporter asked if they would go on record to say the president did nothing wrong and they all said enthusiastically, YES! I've never seen the Republicans come together and support Trump like this. Its wonderful to see. Watch their faces, they look happy at times, like a fighting spirit for justice has inspired them. The built up tension surrounding this fiasco is gone. Also, maybe they're catching on they have a lot of support if they just start stepping up. Fabulous! What comes next ?:nuts:

I need to make a correction on what I said above. This impeachment sham may not be over yet as Pelosi may try to launch it again in a more "open" format...:deadhorse: :deadhorse: :deadhorse:

We don't know what the follow up will be on this and I dont like making inaccurate statements.

Can you give a few highlights?

Well, Trump said he wants closer trade deals with UK (and he wants Brexit done asap), and defuses Corbyn's fear that the U.S wants to meddle with the NHS. He also complains about certrain EU countries not pulling their weight (or is that paying their way?) within NATO.

He speaks of BoJo as a friend (mentioning that Johnson and Farage should work together) and also offers some words on the death of Baghdadi last week. Another issue covered was the road death caused by a US citizen back in the summer (I think she was the wife of a diplomat or something). He stalls Farage a little on this point, mentions the need to know all the facts involved. He skits over this a little to focus on what he's done for the U.S during his time in office.

He mentions Warren and Sanders as his possible rivals for 2020, but no mention of Tulsi. He then mentions that he thinks he's achieving more in office than he thought was possible. he says that his freedom is curtailed forever now that he's taken on the big job, and that nothing will be the same for him again. He seems almost wistful on this point.

Clearly Farage and Trump get on as friends, so the chat is fairly warm and open, but no real surprises in this interview on reflection. Still a good listen though.
