EUROPE - On Monday, the European Union approved Strategic Compass – a bloc-wide common defense strategy that will create an EU deployment force of 5,000 troops. While such a move is a historic first for the bloc, it is substantially more modest than the EU army proposed by France’s Emmanuel Macron.
ISRAEL - Israeli Knesset member threatens to dump the US and join the Sino-Russia bloc. Perhaps this is the plan, total destruction of the west demographically and economically before a swift pivot to the other side. If the United States does not continue to recognize Israel's sovereignty in the Golan Heights and drastically changes Trump's Iran policy, Israel will have to consider building a stronger relationship with Russia and China.
USA - We are now in the throes of possible world war once again. While this is a distinct possibility from the standpoint of much annihilation due to conventional or even nuclear war, it is my belief that World War III began over two years ago, at least psychologically, and is a war against all the people in the US and around the entire world by their own governments. At this point, it is not strictly a war of bombs and bullets, at least not on any grand scale; it is a war consumed by deceit, lies, propaganda, and fear. It is a war against the individual at every turn as well, and it is a war meant to solidify the capture and control of the planet under a technocratic one-world governing system.
USA - President Joe Biden and his greenie cohorts continue to push electric vehicles as a panacea for the high cost of gas, but EVs have high costs of their own that the left continues to gloss over, and the costs of the batteries that run EVs is a prime example. From manufacturing them to replacing them, these battery packs are a major expense. One of the key ingredients in the battery packs that power EVs is lithium. This mineral is important in the production of glass, aluminum products and batteries of all sorts, especially for electric cars. According to Mining.com, battery-grade lithium carbonate is up 95 percent thus far in 2022, and a whopping 472 percent over the course of the past 12 months. As the soaring prices of lithium and other minerals needed to manufacture EVs soar, the costs of battery packs for EVs are seeing pressure. Already the battery pack is one of the most expensive parts of an electric vehicle, with prices ranging from $10,000 to $25,000 to replace them — and that does not include labor.
GERMANY - German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has refused to immediately cut energy ties with Russia, in a move that threatens to undermine the West's sanctions on Vladimir Putin. Germany relies on Russia to supply around 40 percent of its gas supplies. Speaking today, Mr Scholz vowed for Europe to end its energy dependency on Russia, but refused to do so now. He said to do so "overnight" would plunge his country into a recession, risking hundreds of thousands of jobs and entire industrial sectors. He added: "Sanctions should not hurt European states harder than the Russian leadership." It comes ahead of an EU summit on Thursday where the bloc is expected to agree on a new sanctions package. But ministers have already clashed on how to respond. The EU and allies have already imposed hefty measures against Russia, including freezing its central bank's assets.
USA - The “New World Order” is always just a conspiracy theory until someone comes out and discusses it. Whether that’s George H W Bush, Bill Clinton, George W Bush, or Barack Obama, all of our previous five presidents other than Donald Trump has invoked the “New World Order” during a speech or public discussion.
USA - The responses to the video posted by Greg Price of Newsmax showing Joe speaking about a new world order quickly exceeded two million views. The more views the video got, the more social media oligarchs jumped into action to suppress it. Unfortunately for them, it was too late. The damage had been done. All the talk about Democrats and RINOs pushing for a new world order from behind the scenes came to a head in Joe’s speech, and Twitter users had quite a lot to say about Joe’s comments. Much like they hid the truth about his son Hunter’s laptop, the words were barely out of Joe Biden’s mouth before the state-run media, and big tech oligarchs with their fake fact-checkers jumped into action to shut down any publications or individuals who dared to report on the ACTUAL words Joe Biden used. Fake News Twitter put a fake trend at the top of their fake news trends that claimed anyone who uses Joe Biden’s QUOTES and doesn’t change their meaning to fit the narrative of the mainstream media and big tech oligarchs is simply publishing fake news.
USA - In an interview with CNN, Zelenskyy spoke about his prior communication with Joe Biden and NATO leadership. Within the interview Zelenskyy said: “I requested them personally to say directly that we are going to accept you into NATO in a year or two or five, just say it directly and clearly, or just say no,” Zelensky said. “And the response was very clear, you’re not going to be a NATO member, but publicly, the doors will remain open,” he said. So, privately NATO and the Biden administration were telling Zelenskyy Ukraine was never going to be in NATO, yet they told him they were going to publicly act like the possibility existed. There was no way for Ukraine to enter NATO, but they were going to pretend he could. Why would they do this?
UK - Liz Truss fears France and Germany will let Vladimir Putin off the hook in a desperate bid to end war in Ukraine. Britain is worried about the continued phone calls between Emmanuel Macron and the Russian President since the outbreak of conflict. While publicly ministers have said they are supportive of the conversations, behind closed doors there is concern about what the outcome of such calls could lead to. The Foreign Secretary fears a repeat of the last time Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014, when it annexed Crimea. On that occasion, Russia and the West drew up the Minsk agreement that implemented a ceasefire and recognised Ukraine's borders, with France and Germany taking a leading role in the talks.
ISRAEL - Israeli officials admit that their ability to influence Washington’s positions in the negotiations has been negligible in light of President Joe Biden’s desire to reach a deal quickly. The White House paid little attention to Israeli reservations, and US negotiators declined to harden their positions in response to Israeli arguments. The Americans have claimed in discussions with the Israeli government that they were only seeking to restore the status quo of the original nuclear deal signed in 2015. The aim is to fix the damage caused by former President Donald Trump’s withdrawal from the deal three years later under the influenced by then-Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
CANADA - A joint project between the Central Bank of Canada and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology will be researching the possibility of an entirely digital Canadian dollar, it was announced yesterday. The digital dollar would be a state-issued cryptocurrency, or “central bank digital currency” (CBDC). It’s not just Canada – countries from all around the world appear to be accelerating the research and implementation of CBDCs as we enter the second quarter of 2022. In our New Year’s post, OffG hypothesized that the introduction of central bank digital currencies would be a major news thread of 2022, and that prediction looks to be coming true before winter has even turned into spring.
USA - President Joe Biden released a statement to all Americans on Monday afternoon warning that Russia may target the US with cyberattacks. President Biden said: “This is a critical moment to accelerate our work to improve domestic cybersecurity and bolster our national resilience. I have previously warned about the potential that Russia could conduct malicious cyber activity against the United States, including as a response to the unprecedented economic costs we’ve imposed on Russia alongside our allies and partners. It’s part of Russia’s playbook. Today, my Administration is reiterating those warnings based on evolving intelligence that the Russian Government is exploring options for potential cyberattacks.
GERMANY - Germany will develop a new China strategy in the coming months, the country’s foreign minister, Annalena Baerbock, announced on Friday. Baerbock cited China’s Belt and Road Initiative, arguing that it illustrated why investments in infrastructure were security-related. Issues of sovereignty, territorial integrity, and international law were increasingly prominent in African and South Asian countries, where China had invested heavily in local grids and power plants, she said.
USA - Joe Biden just told the entire world that “a New World Order” is coming, and he insists that the US needs to lead it. I know how wild that sounds, but Biden really did just say this. Needless to say, Joe Biden fully understands that “a New World Order” is a loaded term. For decades, prominent voices have been warning that the globalists intend to create “a New World Order” which will dominate the entire planet. And for decades, the corporate media and other apologists for the globalists have insisted that it is just a “conspiracy theory”.
USA - The $1.5 trillion spending bill is full of pork and waste and yet it was passed within 24 hours after its release. Clearly, no one read it. Adam Andrzejewski, Founder and CEO of OpenTheBooks.com reported on the massive spending bill full of waste that was recently passed by Congress. Adam shares: The bill is 2,700 pages – the length of ten books. Congress had less than one day to read the bill before they voted. President Biden has already signed off — a $1.5 trillion omnibus spending bill. Magic! Do we really have a representative republic if our representatives don’t even know what they are voting on?
