If Trump had done this, Biden and his handlers would have called him a Russian agent. axios.com/nord-stream-sa…
Axios accurately describes the company that Biden relieved of Trump's sanctions: "Nord Stream 2 AG and its CEO, the Putin crony and former East German intelligence officer Matthias Warnig"

This is the beginning of the end of NATO.
Axios: "This planned move seems at odds with Secretary of State Antony Blinken's statement, made during his confirmation hearing, that 'I am determined to do whatever we can to prevent that completion (of Nord Stream 2).'"
Outstanding article by @jonathanvswan: "completion of Nord Stream 2 would be a huge geopolitical win for Putin and give him substantial new leverage in Europe.... Russia has a long track record of cutting critical supplies to its neighbors during disputes...."

Follow this thread for highlights from the Center for Security Policy's webinar with former Secretary of State @mikepompeo. Joining are the Center's @FredFleitz and David Wurmser.
How did Middle East peace deteriorate so quickly?

Pompeo: Obama sent a "real message of weakness to the Middle East." Trump needed to restore strength to prevent Americans from being sent to die there, moved US Embassy to Jerusalem, made "a clear demonstration of resolve."
Pompeo: Trump found "a path forward for the Palestinians" and told them that "your corrupt regime intent on terror in Gaza ... are going to have to change their ways."

Take a look at the iconography in the CIA diversity ad. The CIA officer is prominently wearing a clenched-fist symbol on her shirt. This is a Bolshevik-era symbol, popularized on the Stalinist side during the Spanish Civil war.

The cisgender CIA poster grrrl with the Communist clenched fist received the Agency's "Donald R. Cryer Award for Diversity and Inclusion" in 2015, according to the agitprop video.

TSA has integrated CCP-style face recognition systems as a requirement for Americans to travel abroad.
This is tied into a CDC application that now tracks people by their phone numbers through registering for a Chinese Virus test or vaccine. The tracking is global, according to American citizens abroad who have been getting CDC notices on their phones indicating their travel.
Someone at a major airline just re-confirmed this to me, and says that TSA now has covert face-recognition cameras throughout certain American airports. Caution: Even though this source is in a position to know, this item is from a single source only.

@daniel_bilar Here's one from 1995. It refers to a silo-based ICBM and other programs. There was NO mainstream media or political interest in this at the time - to raise it was to be accused of opposing "Russian reform" and - yes - of being a "Russophobe." jmichaelwaller.com/wp-content/upl…
@daniel_bilar I wrote this one for Reader's Digest in 1996. This one refers to Topol-M. The Clinton State Department and DoD got very upset - not at the Kremlin, but at me. jmichaelwaller.com/wp-content/upl…
@daniel_bilar More on US funding of the Topol-M and other systems in 1998. (Separately: A tranche of IMF cash was used to pay for construction of the first Borei-class submarine at that same period.) jmichaelwaller.com/1998/12/15/fro…

Now would be a good time for lawmakers to ask FBI Director Wray about the Bureau’s metrics in assessing and responding to left-wing violence vs right-wing violence.
Those metrics would show how politically biased the FBI has become, and how dangerous this is not merely to public confidence in the Bureau, but to the safety of our country.
Lawmakers should ask the FBI how it reacted to protests and violence from the Left and from the Right. FBI should describe the investigative techniques used, what internal classifications the FBI assigned to its investigations (domestic terrorism, criminal, etc.)...

The @CapitolPolice Inspector General has made devastating findings about the intelligence capabilities of the force.

These findings matter, not only to protect the Capitol, but because the progs are using the Jan 6 attack as an excuse to build a huge domestic spying capability.
2) @CapitolPolice IG: "We also identified intelligence related deficiencies with the Department’s organizational structure, training, professional standards, internal controls, and capability to effectively collect, process, and disseminate intelligence information.”
3) "Despite the inspector general’s findings, Capitol Police officials have defended their intelligence operations at public hearings," @rollcall reports. Acting Chief Yogananda Pittman oversaw the Intelligence & Interagency Coordination Division. She is inept and has to go.
