Trump pledges to drive wedge between Russia and China
Former US President and 2024 Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has vowed to disrupt the increasingly close relationship between Russia and China if he is reelected.

– It seeks to find a way to match or exceed the military capabilities and industrial capacity of both Russia and China through “innovation;”
– The US refuses to recognize the fundamental flaws in its own system as well as the premise upon which it seeks primacy in the first place;
– Start-up companies seeking to out-innovate and/or out-produce China propose unrealistic measures that either won’t work or that China is already employing itself on a much larger scale;

These dissidents have repeatedly mounted principled opposition to plunder, torture, and conquest. The roll call of anti-imperialist heroes includes Henry David Thoreau, Mark Twain, W.E.B.

The Anglo-American War on Russia – Part Nine (Preparing a Nuclear Attack)
Read More »The United States spent over a trillion dollars the past two decades to prepare for a surprise nuclear strike on Russia. The United States withdrew from major arms control treaties and built newer and more accurate nuclear missiles. It built missile bases in Poland and Romania and hundreds of new submarines and destroyers to launch cruise missiles or long-range anti-missile missiles.The United States Army and Navy developed, tested, and deployed mobile missile launchers to Europe while Generals insist they have the right to deploy such systems on Russia’s borders, to include inside Ukraine and Finland. This was barely reported in America’s corporate media, which spews constant propaganda about Russian threats to prepare the public for nuclear war.
