Larry Johnson and I talk Blinken blinders; NATO Doltenberg is asked re “rules-based international order”; how the same ivy-mantled halls that gave us (Halberstam’s) “Best & Brightest” on Vietnam have yielded “Worst & Dimmest” today.

Surprise! North Korea Now Has an ICBM

Surprise! Russia has given advanced ICBM to North Korea. White House flummoxed; not yet able to craft Memo to Media as to how to handle. I just briefed the judge on this based largely on work of Ted Postol, Prof Emeritus, MIT.

The Narratives, They are a-Changing…

Interview re Putin was short on biography, long on experience, esp on Ukraine. Did mention brother Viktor died during 872-day siege of Leningrad. Didn’t know till Putin said it today that his grandmother was fatally shot by Nazi soldier. Rambling on rumble

Ray and Larry Johnson Comment on Orban Interview

Tucker ups Pucker Factor in captive media. Muscles so tight, impervious to laxative. His interview of Hungarian PM quickly gets over 100 million views. https://magyarnemzet.hu/english/2023/08/no-stopping-tucker-carlsons-interview-with-pm-orban-receives-more-than-100-million-views
Larry Johnson and I comment on Orban’s remarks, on the Judge’s Roundtable today.
Will Mitt Ever Admit…

Did Mitt Romney inherit the gene for brainwashing from his dad George, who blew his chance to become president after admitting he had be “brainwashed” on Vietnam? The apple never falls far from tree. Will Mitt eventually admit being brainwashed on Ukraine?

Surrounded by NATO
Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov once joked responding to critics of Russia for having the temerity to place its country in midst of NATO military bases! But for Russia, NO JOKE. I briefed in detail https://raymcgovern.com/2023/05/03/if-the-missile-fits-beware/
Also discussed Monday w/the Judge.
Longform Video with Thomas Karat
Thomas Karat of the Netherlands gave me time and space for a tour d’horizon-type interview and inserted up front ‘This-Is-Your-Life’-type short video clips of me, starting with my Feb. 21 briefing the UN Security Council on sabotage of Nordstream pipeline.
The Ukrainian Missile Crisis

Caitlin Johnstone nails it for those willing to consider the reality that Moscow feels as threatened as JFK did in 1962 https://caitlinjohnstone.com.au/2023/08/27/the-last-time-a-foreign-military-threat-was-placed-near-the-us-border-the-world-almost-ended/ She puts cogent English to what I tried to show last April in a briefing I titled “If the Missile Fits, Beware” https://raymcgovern.com/2023/05/03/if-the-missile-fits-beware/
Who Killed Prigozhin?
Did Putin order Prigozhin killed or is Putin the adult in the room? (Memo to Establishment media “Putin did it: he’s a thug, remember?”) Doesn’t seem likely to Ritter, Johnson, me. At Friday Roundtable w/Judge Napolitano, we also talk Ukraine (29 minutes).
Visualizing the BRICS Expansion

Adolescent G W Bush: “You’re either with us or against us!” Adolescent geniuses w/Biden throw BRICbats at “unexceptional” nations; insist on “rules-based int’l order” where US makes the rules. How’s that working out for you, Tony, Jacob, Victoria? Uh-oh!
