THIERRY MEYSSAN—Since Joe Biden returned to the White House, this time as President of the United States, the Straussians have been running the show. “Jake” Sullivan is National Security Advisor, while Antony Blinken is Secretary of State with Victoria Nuland at his side. As I have reported in previous articles, she went to Moscow in October 2021 and threatens to crush Russia’s economy if it ded not comply. This was the beginning of the current crisis.

Mercenaries in Yemen: Nationalities, numbers & horrors
26 minutes readMONA ISSA—It’s the twenty-first century. Corporations have armies. With as little as a few ID papers and almost no governmental regulation, you can take up state-of-the-art arms and be sent to a war that’s not your war, not your battle, and kill people whose names you can barely pronounce. The trade offer? You receive some $10,000 a week. That’s $40,000 a month. That’s more than 30x the American minimum wage for some honest work. You need not read some Veronica Roth, because we’re already living in a dystopian novel.

Silencing the Beast of Bolivian Populism (Enhanced)
23 minutes readJASON HIRTHLER—Schiff and his tentpole pals have evidently no awareness of America’s storied track record of international regime-change efforts. They’ve not watched Our Brand Is Crisis nor seen serpentine Clintonite James Carville teach amoral Bolivian careerists to massage the narrative against young Evo Morales. They succeed in planting an elite-groomed handmaiden of American capital in the presidency, leaving the riveting provocateur Morales to wait another couple of years. The cocalero with the sheaf of sable hair and the sun-warmed smile would soon be carried into power on the backs of rural campesinos.

43 minutes readDAN COHEN—The Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong submitted a formal complaint with the US consulate general, calling on the US “to immediately make a clean break from anti-China forces who stir up trouble in Hong Kong, stop sending out wrong signals to violent offenders, refrain from meddling with Hong Kong affairs and avoid going further down the wrong path.”

PATRICE GREANVILLE—Mexican-born Ramos wants us to believe (and so he says in the interview with Cooper) that while he was admittedly a bit confrontational with Maduro—holding his feet to the fire so to speak—he was merely acting as a tough journalist, but that is not at all what Ramos does and was doing. In the guise of interviews, Ramos in fact specialises in hostile, real-time propaganda toward political figures the empire or the “Deep State” has put in its crosshairs. He tried years ago the same ruse with Bolivia’s Evo Morales, and Evo, quickly seeing through his dishonesty, also kicked him out.
