Washington talking heads would rather talk about flying objects than the enemies behind most of them, China and Russia. We are in a state of war. Meanwhile, despite trillions of dollars spent on infrastructure, our roads, bridges, and railways continue to deteriorate. At the same time, federal programs that millions depend on are going broke.

Ukraine, on the front lines of a war we need to win, is begging for weapons.  And yet former Reps. Tulsi Gabbard and Ron Paul are participating in a loony left “Rage Against the War Machine” rally in D.C. on February 19 demanding a Russian victory by starving the people of Ukraine of the weapons they need for self-defense.

First, however, a personal note about the financial crisis and national bankruptcy. Having passed the age which gives me access to Social Security and Medicare, I have learned more about how these federal programs work – or don’t work.

Medicare is going broke and forcing seniors to search, sometimes in vain, for doctors willing to take Medicare patients. This is because the payment system is on “an unsustainable path that is jeopardizing patient access to physicians,” according to the American Medical Association.

While advocating more weapons for Ukraine, former Obama official Michael McFaul says in a Foreign Affairs article “In return for receiving these weapons, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy could sign a legally binding agreement to not use these weapons to strike targets inside Russia.” There you have it, in clear precise terms: Ukraine is not being permitted to win.

This is another no-win war that the American foreign policy establishment wants fought in such a way as to guarantee defeat for those whose country was invaded.

If the experts at the Council on Foreign Relations have their way, Ukraine will have to settle for a bombed-out country and the corporate and financial elites will resume business-as-usual with a KGB regime in Moscow determined to resurrect the Soviet empire.

Not surprisingly, supporters of Ukraine are coming to the conclusion that, under Joe Biden, Ukraine isn’t supposed to win but to bleed and then negotiate and certify Russia’s capture of eastern Ukraine and Crimea. That means Russia wins, and it can set its sights on other countries, such as anti-communist Poland.

Joe Biden, you’re no Ronald Reagan.

“Tanks To Ukraine” is a headline on the Breitbart news site that is portrayed as possibly provoking World War III. A Drudge Report headline about “a fierce new step by the West” took me to CNN. “War in Ukraine pushes Doomsday Clock forward” is how Axios described it. This is scare-mongering propaganda designed to frighten the West into backing down, when a united front against Russian imperialism is now taking shape.

The first communist nation on the face of the earth, Russia is today run by the morally bankrupt remnants of the old Soviet KGB in alliance with billionaire oligarchs that currently uses the Russian Orthodox Church as a spiritual front for justifying Russian imperialism. The regime is so corrupt that it got caught doping its athletes.

Today, Russia uses its left-over nuclear weapons from the Soviet days to scare the West into backing down in support of a former Soviet republic fighting for its national independence.  In terms of conventional weapons, the United States and its allies have the capability to make sure Ukraine prevails, if only the U.S. has the win to win. That is an open question with Biden, long committed to a New World Order, in charge.

Meanwhile, Mexican cartels working with Communist China pour drugs in, killing about 100,000 Americans a year.  The China virus continues to kill and maim Americans, with hundreds dying every day.

Worldwide, more than 6.7 million people have died, with 1.1 million deaths in the U.S.

The China-Russia alliance against America and the West is on full display.
