As Jim Kunstler points out in his latest blog post, it has been a long 36 months since Donald J Trump, the most unlikely and perhaps the most unpresidential President ever - though there would not be much of a gap between him and the old Jay Dubbyer, and perhaps he was the only available...

Minsk, Spinsk, It’s All A Game – with people’s lives
"Russia’s envoy slams Kiev’s statements on non-compliance with its obligations" I don't want to keep harping on about this, but I will if I have to, and the West (including Ukraine) is playing it for all it is worth, but the Minsk agreements championed by the so-called Normandy Four, are dead in the water, barely...

A side order of Dem/Shit -ocracy
“Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer Social Democracy (if such exists) or Western Shitocracy (which is a definite thing). Actually this article is not about that - though it covers the subject - but about what the title of the piece says, which is an infinitely more interesting question - answered with a...

It Certainly Is Wrong…
...and the Russians should be very careful about placing any kind of trust in the America that they have in the past called 'our US partners', but are now it seems more wisely referring to as 'our US counterparts'.

"Kiev says will pump Russian transit gas to storages in 2020 if no transit contract signed" Looks like being a cold winter in Ukraine then, eh! Is this just Naftogas bravado or... Continue Reading →
US Resurrects “Reds Under The Bed” Alarmism

Misplaced Trust In Human Nature
Australia's Westpac Bank - one of the Big Four - bringing a new level of meaning to the term 'Banksters'. "Westpac CEO Brian Hartzer quits amid pressure over money laundering scandal" 23 Million separate breaches of the law. What can you say? Symptomatic of the times? Yes, of course. The product of human greed or... Continue Reading →
“The American News Media Is Committing Suicide Along With The Democratic Party” – Kunstler
What a lead up to the end of the year. It appears to be 'Show Time', and I don't mean the "Adam Schiff’s impeachment soap opera" sideshow - made just for laughs, or perhaps just to showcase the impressario's googly eyes. The all-American media and political showboat is beginning to generate great entertainment value. Don't... Continue Reading →
