It’s Time for America to Leave NATO and for Europe to Resolve Their Internal Disputes

February 1, 2022 By Steve McCann

Since 1916 and the First World War, United States foreign policy has been dominated by Eurocentrism. Following the Second World War, America has been the military protector of Western Europe for 73 years through the North Atlantic Treaty Organization or NATO. 

Now the time has come to disband NATO and tell the countries of Europe, in particular Germany, that they are on their own, as this nation must focus on its ever-growing domestic problems and the global threat of Communist China.

The United States should have begun the process of severing military commitments with Europe after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. After all, protecting Europe and thus the United States against Soviet aggression was the primary purpose of NATO.  But an irrational fear of a non-existent nation and its former satellites still persists and has been conferred on its much smaller and less formidable successor, Russia.  Together with the compulsive need to defend a prosperous continent these two pillars still form the basis of American military planning and international policy.

The divorce process should have been accelerated in 1993 when the anti-democratic European Union comprising 27 European countries and unified economic, social and security policies came into being.  The combined population of these nations is 33% larger and their overall annual Gross National Product is second only to the United States.  Since 1993 Europe has been more than capable of defending itself.......To Read More......

 My Take - The only thing I find wrong with this articles is "it isn't my article" as I've expressed this position with correspondents for some time.  Kudos to Steve!!!!

 

Meet Nick Clegg, a British nerd who decides what Americans can read on Facebook

By Kyle Smith May 6, 2021

Who is Sir Nick Clegg, the Facebook vice president of global affairs who is placing America’s culture of free speech in manacles by continuing to ban Donald Trump from the platform? The man who wrote the Facebook post barring Trump in January and will decide whether to make it permanent is a career British liberal politician, once famously described as David Cameron’s condom by Boris Johnson.

Savor this for a moment: The former head of a party calling itself the “Liberal Democrats,” from the supposedly liberty-loving homeland of the Magna Carta, is stopping Americans from hearing the thoughts of a person we chose as our president. What was the point of the American Revolution if some aristocratic British nerd can decide which Americans get to speak?

Clegg, 54, the former deputy prime minister of Great Britain until he was chased out of that country by haters on both sides, has fallen upwards into a much bigger job than he ever had in London, where as David Cameron’s No. 2 he had an exalted title but almost no power. Johnson, then the mayor, derided him as “Cameron’s kind of lapdog-come-prophylactic-protection device.”............To Read More.....

 

Executive Order 13848 and the Stolen Election

By David Archibald  December 18, 2020

The fate of Western Civilization, some three thousand years in the making, now hangs by a slender thread. That thread is Executive Order 13848 signed on September 12, 2018.  The background to this is that the US President can make law. As Obama said, he had a “pen and a phone” and that was all he needed to remake the United States.

In the beginning there was Obama’s Executive Order 13694 signed on April 1, 2015. The Executive Order states that there is a national emergency due to malicious cyber-enabled activities originating from outside the United States that “constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States.”

Section 1 of that Executive Order deals with blocking assets. Section 7 states that no notice has to be given in the blocking of assets under Section 1. It appears that blocking of assets has the same meaning as seizing of assets. Executive Order 13694 was not rescinded by President Trump and remains in effect. So assets can be seized without notice.

Executive Order 13757 followed on December 28, 2016. This Executive Order appears to be just one of Obama’s contributions to the Russia hysteria resulting from Hillary Clinton’s loss of the 2016 election. It names five Russian entities and four individual Russians that were sanctioned. The list is a token effort in that it did not affect business between the Obama regime and Russian entities that they wanted to do business with, e.g., Hunter Biden was able to be paid $3.5 million by the wife of the mayor of Moscow.

But it does have wording in it that is very useful in our current circumstances. Part (ii) (E) of Section 1 of that Executive Order directs the seizing of assets of any persons:

“tampering with, altering, or causing a misappropriation of information with the purpose or effect of interfering with or undermining election processes or institutions”

Executive Order 13694 had not mentioned elections.

Part (iii) (B), Section 1 directs the seizing of assets of persons who “materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in support of, any activity described” in part (ii). Under Section 1, the Secretary of the Treasury in consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary of State determines who is complicit for electoral cyber-crimes.

Executive Order 13757 was not rescinded by President Trump, remains in effect and is sufficient to reverse the fraud in the recent presidential election.    ........To Read More......
