Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and French President Emmanuel Macron have been collaborating on ideas to send French troops to Ukraine. “Today I spoke with the president of France. It was a rather long and detailed conversation. We discussed defence support – various forms of defence, arms packages for Ukraine,” Zelensky said earlier in the week.
The pair have also discussed partner contingents and joint military training. Macron has been discussing deploying troops for quite some time. Russian President Vladimir Putin threatened Macron last year, stating his troops would meet the same fate as Napoleon if they dared to enter the war.
“I have a clear strategic objective: Russia cannot win in Ukraine,” Macron said in May 2023. “If Russia wins in Ukraine, there will be no security in Europe. Who can pretend that Russia will stop there? What security will there be for the other neighboring countries, Moldova, Romania, Poland, Lithuania and the others?” he asked.
Again, the establishment neocons are using the same lie to claim that the war against UKRAINE is a war against all of Europe. All the evidence contradicts this claim but the neocons will not relent. North Korea sent troops, so why can’t France? France is a NATO nation and an attack on one is an attack on all. If any NATO member directly deploys troops to the battlefield, the war will escalate into a full battle between NATO and Russia. Allies would not permit French troops to die without stepping in.
“There will be no quick and easy solution in Ukraine,” Macron said in a speech to French ambassadors gathered at the Elysee Palace earlier this month. Macron then urged the United States to “help us to change the nature of the situation and convince Russia to come to the negotiating table.” Yet, every establishment puppet cowers when Trump discusses plans to actually end the war or the potential of surrendering portions of historically Russian territorial lands.
Every model in our computer indicates a turn of events come 2026 before a sharp turn in 2027. Whatever happens next year will be the prelude to what’s to come in 2027. The event appears geopolitical in nature as nearly every sector, currency, and nation will be affected. Perhaps Putin will be overthrown or die, and the true hardliners will take over Russia and fulfill the fears of the neocons. Perhaps another unforeseen event will happen that causes a worldwide calamity. War seems nearly inevitable.

We saw the cancelation of the Romanian election in December 2024, the final month of the Political Year from Hell. Calin Georgescu, who the media declared as a far-right extremist, won the election. The establishment cried, “RUSSIAN INTERFERENCE!” and has refused to acknowledge the results. Tens of thousands of people took to the streets on Sunday to demand President Klaus’ resignation.
The media is not covering this story anywhere as the establishment fears mass civil unrest. The Romanian people are understandably outraged that their government is completely ignoring the democratic process and denying them the right to vote for their future president.
The neocons are behind this utter disregard for democracy. The establishment has blamed Russia and TikTok for interfering in their election. Yet, the clear reason that they will not permit Georgescu to take office is due to his anti-NATO stance.
NATO’s largest exercise for 2025, Steadfast Dart 2025 (STDT25), is taking place in Romania, Bulgaria, and Greece. Over 10,000 allied military personal from nine NATO nations are partaking in this joint exercise. As explained by the Sofia Globe, “The exercise involves air, land, naval and special operations forces; 17 ships; more than 20 aircraft and helicopters, including EF2000, F16, AV 8B HARRIER fighters and A400 transport aircraft; more than 1500 pieces of military equipment, including tanks, multiple launch rocket systems, self-propelled artillery, infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs) and armoured personnel carriers (APCs).”
“What is happening now in Romania gains no reaction abroad, no reaction from the United States. They don’t understand what is going on here, because if they use Romania as a door for a war, what to be next? We don’t need war; this is my point,” Georgescu said, TASS reported. He said it loud and clear — THIS IS NOT OUR WAR! Georgescu is against collaborating with NATO to wage World War III, as are the Romanian people who DO NOT WANT WAR! Tens of thousands took to the streets to beg their now UNELECTED officials to hear their voices.
Millions voted for a candidate who did not want war and were denied their vote. Anyone “anti-war” is now “pro-Russian” and a threat to the ultimate goal of creating World War III to usher in the dawn of a new world order. “Authorities must say why they cancelled the election, we want to see the evidence,” one protestor and proclaimed economist told Reuters, “At this rate we won’t be voting anymore, they will impose a leader like in the old days.”
And this is precisely how nations fail.
Civil unrest is growing among the people. Their leaders have abandoned domestic interests in favor of globalist pursuits. The economy is turning down, and people are worried about their own future. The people no longer believe in the democratic process. Why hold an election when they allow unelected officials to override EU member states? Why hold an election when the establishment simply cancels out the vote when the results do not align with their wishes?
The discontent will rise among the people like a contagion. I simply do not see the European Union existing as a whole in the coming years. Individual nations like Romania are fighting back. They do not want to participate in the neocon globalist war games, and the establishment is not prepared for the collective overriding their authoritarian regimes.

QUESTION: Hello Martin,
Isn’t intentionally losing the war the whole point of starting WWIII? In other words, starting war in 3 or maybe 4 theatres when there is no threat, no troops to fight, no ammunition, and no money to pay for the war is a guarantee of failure. But historically, isn’t that the goal: the loser gets to default on the previous government debt, then start all over with new bond issues?

ANSWER: The NEOCONs have NEVER expected Ukraine to win. They have counted on Ukraine being utterly destroyed so they can then claim Russia will invade all of Europe. The Ukrainian people are pawns in this chess game, and nobody cares about them whatsoever.
\
This has always been about conquering Russia. The NEOCONs have taken full control of the Biden Administration, and NATO is pushing Europe to its total destruction. Three governments I have spoken with all expect war with Russia.
The next major turning point in Poland is 2028.12 (February 18, 2028). NATO has been in control of Poland more so than any other nation, and they continue to push Poland into a confrontation with Russia.
NATO appears to be preparing Poland to become the next Ukraine. They are pushing Poland to engage Russia and then claim it was Russia who attacked first. They pulled that stunt with Vietnam when, in fact, we were never attacked. Even Johnson admitted, for all he knew, they were shooting at whales that night. That is always irrelevant. They still sacrificed 58,000 Americans for another one of their endless wars.
Vietnam was also all about killing Russians. They have never stopped with their end goal to conquer Russia as if Communism never fell.
I suggest that our readers in Poland should plan to migrate while you can. The EU is pushing through the Digital ID, which will be followed by the Digital Wallet. They are planning to cancel the paper money and impose capital controls. It does not appear that the Euro in any form will survive beyond 2029.

QUESTION: Why do you say the military will split? Is this routine?
FH
ANSWER: Throughout history, there have been many revolutions and coups. The most famous one in modern-day history is when Yeltsin stood on the tanks in Moscow and told the military not to fire on the people. They stood down and the Russian could that sought to overthrow Gorbachev and take the country back to Communism failed. Vladimir Kryuchkov, the coup’s leader, had published a two-volume memoir entitled “Lichnoye Delo”—”A Personal File.” He was the top spy for almost two decades, yet the US media never paid much notice to him. He was the embodiment of the old regime and its secret police. He was the real Soviet spymaster and was well known only to those of us who had insight into Russia aside from the CIA and the FBI.
Kryuchkov was a young operative in Budapest who helped crush the Hungarian uprising in 1956, which launched his career. Kryuchkov rose through the ranks to be the head of the KGB’s First Chief Directorate and then as the spy agency chief. His climb up the political ladder was enabled because he handled two super-moles in the USA that were responsible for the worst damage ever done to U.S. intelligence – Aldrich Ames and Robert Hanssen.
Then, it was August 1991 when Kryuchkov overestimated his power and organized a coup against President Mikhail S. Gorbachev. I believe the real motive was that Russia was invited to join NATO, and Gorbachev was considering it. This is my prized autographed photo of Maggie and Gorbachev. Boris N. Yeltsin climbed on a tank and rallied the crowds against the coup’s leaders. Kryuchkov was thrown in Moscow’s Matrosskaya Tishina prison. He was charged and tried as a “betrayer of the Motherland.” He was released from prison in 1993 when the government of Boris Yeltsin saw there was a sense of nationalism and even Communist opposition on the rise. Kryuchkov was granted amnesty along with the other plot leaders, fearing it would not be wise to put him on trial pursuing the prosecution in the face of discontent with Yeltsin’s administration. Some of the coup members returned to politics, including in the Duma. Kryuchkov, however, retired. His memoirs were an effort to rehabilitate his reputation.
When Nero died in 68AD, he had no heir for the Julio-Claudian line. The following year, 69AD is known as the year of four emperors. The military will routinely split in a fight for power – Galba, Otho, Vitellius, and the ultimate victor – Vespasian.
The Emperor in the first film, Gladiator, Commodus, was eventually assassinated, and the full corruption of Rome burst through to the surface. The Praetorian Guard, the ancient equivalent of the Secret Service, was dedicated to protecting the emperor, who, in this case, they assassinated and actually auctioned off the throne to the highest bidder.
Pertinax had a successful military career and achieved senatorial rank when the Praetorian Guard assassinated Commodus. Pertinax reluctantly accepted the throne when it was offered to him by the murderers of Commodus. The state of affairs in Rome was deplorable, and Pertinax instituted economic reforms, which immediately made him unpopular, particularly with the Praetorian Guard. Like any public employee who faces a pay cut, the mood was not festive. On March 28th, 193AD, after a reign of only 86 days, a band of mutinous Praetorian Guards invaded the palace and murdered Pertinax. The fate of his wife is unknown, but his son managed to survive.
Following the murder of Pertinax by the Praetorian guards, the full corruption of Rome burst forth. After parading around with the head of Pertinax on a pole, the Guards withdrew to the safety of their camp. No apparent heir was available, so the Praetorian Guards stationed heralds on the wall to announce openly that the office of Emperor was up for sale to the highest bidder. Thus began perhaps the most scandalous affair in Roman history. The corruption had reached such levels that it was clear that the decline and fall of the Roman Empire began at this junction in time. There were two bidders and Marcus Didius Julianus. Didius’ bid was 25,000 sestertii per man and was duly declared Emperor.
Pescennius Niger was the Governor of Syria by 191 AD. Upon word that the Praetorian Guard assassinated Pertinax and sold the throne to the highest bidder, he was cautious after being declared Emperor by his troops. He hesitated to march on Rome, providing the window of opportunity for Septimius Severus to begin his march toward Rome. Severus secured Rome and then turned his attention to his rival in the East. He defeated Niger for the fourth time, and he fled towards the Euphrates but was captured and executed by Severus.
The Pennsylvania Mutiny of 1783was an anti-government uprising over a sovereign default/debt crisis, not unlike Caesar crossing the Rubicon—nearly 400 soldiers of the Continental Army stormed Congress on June 17th, 1783. The American Congress fled Philadelphia to Princeton, New Jersey. George Washington, on June 24th, ordered 1,500 troops to march against the army in Philadelphia to suppress the mutiny.
There are countless examples of the military splitting. Pelosi was reluctant to call in the National Guard, fearing that most would have been Trump supporters. I was told that when the National Guard did enter Washington, some were even asked who they voted for.
The Democrats do not know what they do. They are destroying the United States all for their refusal to live in a republic unless it is their way.

From a Politician I Know
COMMENT: When I started as a commissioner, I remember hearing the same term over and over, “staff recommends,” and I remember thinking of course you do. It’s self-serving. I eliminated that here. I am part of numerous boards and committees within the county and state, and I have found out they are just a sham and too lazy to do the work, and that’s why they go with what “staff recommends.” Even though there’s usually a nice lunch provided I still question why the heck do we even meet when the tail is wagging the dog.
REPLY: This is so true. This is the real swamp. In medieval times, the king was in his castle. There was the typical moat around the castle. What they tend to not explain is that there were no sewers. The waste went down a shoot or pipe and into the moat. Getting through that moat to reach the king must have taken a lot of courage.
Today, the actual DEEP STATE is the gatekeepers who are the modern-day moat. Both RFK and Trump already have theirs. Good luck in getting through that moat. I am not sure you can fight the DEEP STATE when just another incantation surrounds you acting in its self-interest.
