John,
It's time for another Around the World!
Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, a man I have a tremendous amount of
respect for, spoke this week with his counterpart in Moscow, and this is
what we learned, Russia is not backing down.
They assumed no responsibility for the targeting of civilians, they did
not back down on their threats of using nuclear weapons. Russia wants to
see the Ukrainian democratically-elected government be replaced by Russian
puppets, and the icing on the cake - they want to illegally annex even
more parts of Ukraine.

I don't know how Secretary Austin was able to keep his composure on such a
ludicrous and deranged set of demands but there's a reason he is the
Secretary of Defense and I am not.
That is all, unfortunately, to be expected though.
What is not to be expected is what is coming out of the United States on
the Subject of the Ukrainian/Russian war: A war that was
unilaterally started by Putin and Russia, I just have to make sure I add
that in there.
In the US Republicans and billionaires have decided to publicly defend
Putin and Russia and call out president Zelensky, Ukraine, and even our
Commander and chief President Biden:
Let's start with Billionaire and tax-cheat Elon Musk who is charging the
Ukraninans millions of dollars for his Starlink technology while
pretending to be a philanthropist and "donating it." He has gone as far as
to threaten to cut off the internet from the Ukrainians because someone
called him a mean name.
Folks, this is why Billionaires are no good for society. No one man should
have that much power, and if I were President I would invoke the Defense
of Production Act. Ukraine's ability to relay information to the outside
world is a matter of National security and Elon Musk even mentioning the
idea of restricting that information, in my eyes, warrants executive
action.
I am sick and tired of billionaires and the elites playing god with
people's lives, and I know I am not alone. Elon Musk is not alone in
siding with Russia, I have seen plenty of billionaires take to Twitter and
reiterate Russian propaganda talking points. These people claim to be
American citizens, we should send them all packing to Moscow since that is
who they are showing allegiance towards.
While we are at it we should send Kevin McCarthy and other members of the
MAGA GOP who are also threatening to cut off Ukraine aid if they take over
power. Let me remind everyone of one thing- If Russia stops fighting the
war is over, if Ukraine stops fighting and defending herself Ukraine is
over. You see the difference?
This was a busy week in foreign affairs- Not-so-good news coming out of
the UK and their everlasting merry-go-round of alt-right-wing Prime
Ministers. If you have any sympathy at all for outgoing PM Liz Truss,
don't. She is Amy Coney Barret, Nikki Haley, and Sarah Palin all mixed
into one. So she is not as dumb as Palin, but then again not that many
people are.
On a serious note the UK has been floundering more and more to
conservative ideologies and hateful rhetoric, and the further right they
go the more their economy and standard of living plummets. This hopefully
will serve as a wake-up call to our friends from across the pond that they
need to embrace Democratic policies and populist agenda and refrain from
conservative backward-thinking policies that have not worked and continue
to hurt them.
This all started with the troll and wannabe Donald Trump-Boris Johnson and
Brexit, and now the UK has inflation nearly double what we have by the way
and it's only getting worse.
Folks, we have less than a few weeks to go, and I wanted to share with you
what is on the line not just here at home but across the globe if we allow
the MAGA GOP to take over Congress. Now is not the time to take chances
with our Democracy on the line, chip in what you can and let's make sure
we win in November.
