Ray McGovern

One of the longest twin games of Hide and Seek ever: former briefer of US presidents & truth-teller Ray McGovern with host Garland Nixon, will pull aside the curtain on the WHYS of Ukraine and Gaza and what’s in the offing for each. TONIGHT, 8-9pm Eastern:

John Mearsheimer’s “Why the Ukraine Crisis is the West’s Fault” (2014) is MUST READING today. He (and fellow “realist”, Professor Stephen Walt, showed uncommon guts in “The Israel Lobby” (2007). Now John minces no words (and spares no footnotes) on Gaza.

Ray on “Dialogue Works”: Putin self-confident/boyant, widely respected, BUT must proceed gingerly in Ukraine, given the sophomores around Biden. One very puzzling/disquieting note: why would Russia give advanced ICBM to North Korea? A relaxed conversation.

Ray with Judge Napolitano for their weekly 10 AM interview: commentary on Sen. J D Vance branding “preposterous” Biden’s warning Berlin and Paris would be in Putin’s sights if he wins in Ukraine. Gaza: clip of half-naked “Hamas” lined up, as in Buchenwald.

Why does Biden want Zelensky here tomorrow? Will Biden’s geniuses broach a deus-ex-machina plan to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Is a false-flag operation in the works? (The fat lady does not seem ready yet to sing.) Or will Zelensky finally be told, “Sorry, it’s over”.

It depends on who is being “genocided”. Palestinians? No prob. “NEVER AGAIN” just for Jews. Constitutional lawyer Bruce Fein demands Rep Elise Stefanik resign for aiding/abetting/trashing Genocide Convention. U Penn president cringes/folds under pressure. https://brucefein.substack.com/p/congresswoman-stefanik-should-resign?publication_id=1214614&post_id=139671442&isFreemail=true&r=6627

Dan Ellsberg’s last appeal to whistleblowers: DON’T WAIT TIL IT’S TOO LATE! https://samadamsaward.ch/daniel-ellsberg/ You have the goods on govt liars in their own documents. Expose them. Don’t wait til more Gazans, Ukrainians get killed. Matt Hoh and Ray on Judging Freedom

CAN YOU BELEVE? 6 YRS AGO today, the cyber firm examining DNC emails testified there was NO TECHNICAL EVIDENCE OF RUSSIAN HACKING. https://web.archive.org/web/20200507215144/https:/intelligence.house.gov/UploadedFiles/SH21.pdf Media has buried this testimony for 6 years. VIPS called hacking allegations ‘baseless’ 7 years ago.

Gaza: Call a Spade a Spade – Genocide is Genocide. Netanyahu riding atop mood of vengeance in Israel. BUT ABSENT US SUPPORT, ISRAEL WOULD HAVE TO STOP. So it’s on us. Biden, “Have you no sense of decency?” Judge also asks me: Kissinger: Genius or Monster?

Kissinger and me: “Dialogue Works” lets me recount some of the positive things Kissinger did (exploiting the rift between the USSR & China for example), as well as the myopia that drove some ambassadors crazy. Lesson: hire clever people, but impose limits.
