Russia Hits Inside NATO!

President Donald Trump has repeatedly warned the nations of Europe to get their act together and raise their spending on defense to at least 5 percent. The Europeans have consistently ignored Trump, and just dawdled without addressing their delinquent defense.

Now, Russia is testing them — sending a drone that detonated on top of an apartment complex in Romania. This comes as America has been downsizing its troops sent to support NATO.

Frankly, Trump grew weary of spending so much to protect nations that refused to look after themselves or tend to their defensive needs. Here’s more from Trish Regan.

CFR Waves The White Flag

Susan Kokinda analyzes President Trump’s suggestion that Iran could someday join the Abraham Accords, arguing it reflects a foreign policy built on “real physical economics” rather than geopolitical rules. She contrasts this approach with criticism from figures like Mike Pompeo and highlights White House Communications Director Steven Cheung’s sharp rebuttal.

Kokinda points to the National Security Strategy’s focus on reindustrialization—“the future belongs to the makers”—and frames energy independence, supply-chain security, and tariffs as “hard power.”

She interprets the Council on Foreign Relations’ new “Future of American Strategy” project as an admission that the liberal international order and the U.S.-U.K. “special relationship” are ending, citing CFR contributors who dismiss reindustrialization. The episode also notes emerging diplomacy and economic cooperation involving the United States, Russia, China, and India. Here’s more from Promethean Updates.

Europe’s Right Turn!

All across Europe, voters are shifting ton the right! They do not want open borders, nor do they want to see their nations obliterated. They are tired of unwanted migrants who only come for free handouts, and riot, loot or burn at any pretext.

Here’s more from Trish Regan, keying her discussion on the recent success of Nigel Farage new Reform UK party in Great Britain. Members of Starmer’s Cabinet have been jumping ship, and there are many speculating that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will resign by the end of this week or sometime next week.

The New World Order

There’s a new world order forming, centered around the Arctic Ocean and the North Pole. Nations are struggling to create the most dominant trade routes through the region, as Arctic travel will cut at least 15 days of travel time as opposed to ships going through the Suez.

Russia, the United States and Europe all have different proposed routes. Who will succeed and who will be left behind? Here’s more from Greg Reese.

It Happened Again

As usual, Amazon keeps trying to exert its market domination to censor books that don’t adhere to the leftist line.  The latest book Amazon is threatening to ban: The Camp of The Saints by Jean Raspail.

The 1973 novel has served as a focal point for criticism against the mass migration of Third World immigrants into Europe. The late Raspail considered this move, orchestrated by Globalists, as little more than an attempt to destroy Western civilization.

Whether it wants to or not, Amazon can’t yet totally blackball any book. But the company controls more than half of all book sales, so if it bans a work, it can make that book much more marginal, and difficult to find. Here’s more from Mark Dice.

NATO: Die On The Vine!

Here’s a brutal reality check for the NATO free-loaders!

Germany’s invasion of France wasn’t our war, yet Franklin D. Roosevelt still sent military equipment, and later soldiers, to retake Western Europe. However, Europe’s cold shoulder may not be out of spite, but an inability to help at all, explains Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

“They have dreamed of utopia and a good life, and the result is that their fertility rate is 1.3. They are shrinking. They are aging. They’re not competitive. So they don’t have the manpower, even though they have a 450 million-person population. Europe is larger than us by 100 million. “

And even though they have a $22 trillion GDP, which is the third-largest, apparently they don’t want to invest that in their own defense, or they haven’t so far. They don’t want us to use it when we need it.”

What Now, NATO?

After 77 years, the greatest alliance in human history is definitely showing its age.

Can a rudderless and increasingly anti-Western Europe be counted on any longer to provide the money and effort needed to save itself? Do we need to have a “tough-love moment” with our old friends from NATO?

Here’s a new version of The Right Angle, moderated by Steve Green and joined by Scott Ott and Bill Whittle.

End Of The Endless Wars?

Has President Donald Trump run an end game against the endless wars? Will we see a more stable and peaceful Middle East in the aftermath of the Iranian War? Has Trump defanged the Mullahs by stripping away their weaponry as well as their capacity to build new bombs, drones, planes and war ships?

How about NATO? None of America’s NATO’s allies took part in the Iran War, and some of those nations — like Great Britain, France and Spain — actually thwarted the U.S. military. There’s no reason whatsoever to continue making payments to NATO. We should reserve our spending for European defense for those nations like Poland, Hungary  and the Slovak Republic that actually support the United States and have shown they are serious about maintaining a defensive posture.

Is Trump also ready to end the Federal Reserve? Will the U.S. Treasury become our federal government’s financial agent, rather than allowing central bankers to make huge bundles off the taxpayers’ dollars?

Pray! There’s plenty more in this new edition from And We Know, including a look at the rogue judges who occupy so many of our nation’s courts, as well as penal institutions, among them Alcatraz.

Who Is Trump Really Fighting?

Is the War with Iran? Who is Trump at war with? How do his strikes in the Middle East challenge the elitist status quo across Europe?

Meanwhile, we are seeing moves and countermoves in preparation for the 2026 midterm elections. This will be the election of a lifetime. Here’s more from the X22 Report.

Iran Could Strike Europe

The Iranian regime lied about their capabilities, and on Saturday, they proved it. The regime fired tyo intercontinental ballistic missiles Saturday at Diego Garcia, the joint American-British military base located on a remote island in the Indian Ocean.  Neither missile reached the base — one was struck down in flight, while the other one fizzled.

Still, if the Tranians can reach Diego Garcia, they have the capability to strike targets at a similar range across Europe.  Praise God, President  DonaldTrump struck Iran before they could strike the USA bases in the area, or our European allies. Here’ s more from Lori Colley.
