Hard Truths Spelled Out by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov
On November 14, in Moscow, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov was interviewed by Russian reporter Marina Kim for the New World Project, a Russian organization formed to educate young Russians on the economic, social, cultural and political nature of the nations of the world and the formal and informal rules of their interaction.
For more than a decade, the vast majority of Americans and Western Europeans have heard nothing but Ukrainian government, US government, and captive US and Western media propaganda on Russia, Ukraine, and especially the Ukraine War. There is no field of competition—business, sports, military, international trade, foreign policy, or any other endeavor where ignorance is a competitive advantage. The Bible, Sun Tzu, Clausewitz, and scores of others advise that accurate knowledge of competitors and your own capabilities are essential for success. In war, the sure way of tragedy is to underestimate your enemies and embrace self-deceived over-confidence in your own capabilities. In international relations, the only real success is long-term peace. Winning wars may be necessary to achieve peace, but wise leaders know that long-term stability and peace, which bring security and prosperity, are the real goal.

Additional Remarks by Putin and Foreign Minister Lavrov

“The victory of Donald Trump in the presidential election and his return to the White House after a four-year break obviously reflect Americans’ disappointment in the performance of the Biden administration and the election program of the Democratic Party formulated by Vice-President Kamala Harris, who was hastily chosen to replace the incumbent president in the race.”

Should Soros-funded Jeff Jackson Be NC Attorney General?
Democrat NC Attorney General candidate Jeff Jackson is being funded by Soros family members. In fact, Jonathan and Jennifer Allan Soros of New York are among Jackson’s biggest financial supporters in the 2024 general election. This is according to an August 9 Raleigh News and Observer article. This may be only the tip of the iceberg. Jackson’s liberal record in Congress for two years fits the Soros mold well, especially in undermining law enforcement, restricting individual gun rights, and supporting radical social agendas.

Secret Biden Deal Hides Ready Invasion
This is not a wild conspiracy rumor. According to Todd Bensman of the non-partisan and highly reputable Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), in December 2023, Biden Administration senior strategists decided that the record breaking 12,000 to 14,000 illegal immigrants coming over the U.S. southwestern border every day in November 2023 was not good optics for the November 5, 2024, Election. Biden Administrative lieutenants brokered a secret diplomatic bargain with the Mexican government to deploy over 32,000 Mexican troops to herd and transport tens of thousands of migrants intending to cross the U.S. border to be contained within military roadblocks in southern Mexico in cities near the Guatemalan border until after the election. The Biden Administration intended to keep up its massive effort to change the demography and political majority in the U.S. but wanted to hide or greatly reduce public and media knowledge of the massive invasion until the election was past.
