Interesting, could this is a harbinger of where the GOP plan will take America?

Trump obviously wants to destroy this country, via the vandalizing of our government, which will lead to the disintegration of our national government, which seems to be the trumpster GOP theocrats’ enemy numero uno.

Since they seem to be stupid enough to believe that will make life easy for them, what’s better than no taxes, eh?

A lesson in dysfunctional government.

Jul 27, 2025 - Paul Warburg

It’s now happening. For years we’ve been talking about how Russia will begin to fracture due to the war in Ukraine. And now, for the first time, we can say that the Russian government has in fact collapsed (on a small scale) - failing to fulfill the most basic function of a government - providing adequate police forces to protect its own citizens. I talk about the war in Ukraine, its effects on the Russian economy, how that has caused a massive police shortage, and what that means for the future of Russia and the Putin regime.

Why should anybody take this guy’s views seriously?

He’s a preacher, not a “geopolitical analyst”.

Says the guy who loves an illiterate, gluttonous narcissistic slob vandalizing our government.

Oh and why listen to Paul Warburg, possibly because he knows more than you do about some things. Of course, trust but verify.

Suit yourself. I’ll just take my chances with regular media instead of random youtubers.

Yeah, a random YouTuber discussing something that’s actually happening.

And trying to get others aware of it.

Lighten up :wink:

It’s the story that’s the story.

Go ahead fact check it.

I can’t find any evidence that Russia is about to descend into anarchy or fall apart or whatever.

Some pundits have been saying that for a few years now, but somehow Russia is still here the next day.

You’ve show time and again that seeking evidence is that last thing in the world you are interested in.

You repeat anything feels good to you.

Oh and if it offends “liberal types” - so much the better.

Criminality and treason don’t bother you at all.

Facts are for nurds. Eh?

Not that you could care less Guy, still just a hint of all you are missing. And all that will come to bite our society and trickle down to our petty individual lives

Great job changing the subject.

Did you have anything to add?

You can’t find evidence . . . I’ll bet you can’t. So what?

And I don’t plan a trip over there , so we’ll simply have to wait and see.

An interesting read.

Fact check - Witkoff has been ordered to go to Moscow

What fact are you checking?

fact check 2 - putin ignores trump 50 day then 10 or 12 day revised deadline

Fact check 3 - India refuses to be a bullied by America to stop buying Russian oil

“Moderator message: Your posts are getting flagged by our auto-spam detector. Engage in conversation, or I will stop approving your posts.”

Yes yes I can if I choose to . So are you to my posts

So what are we supposed to fact check?

This is the first time georgieboy1 has posted — let’s welcome them to our community!

I’d love to welcome you, I’d love to see you write something worth reading, perhaps even try to start a conversation.

But you gotta come up with worth paying attention to.

We talk a lot about free will here. Using the standard definition of free will that assumes you can choose your next action, yes, you can choose. Choose wisely.

Don’t know what those words mean in that order.

I wisely choose not to further engage here

USA blinks as the ultimatum deadline passes. Trump now wants meeting with putin. An offer has been made. Why is it so ?

The status quo from last year remains.

Trump has nothing to offer, and the Russians have no incentive to stop winning.

Trump could offer promises and guarantees.

Everyone knows that America will not abide by any agreements. Everyone knows what Trump did to Iran by way of negotiation.

We have a year+ of Putin not giving in to Trump or NATO. That’s evidence.

Anyone following Russian, Chinese, and Iranian domestic sentiment today knows that perceptions of America oscillate between a joke and an angry kid.

It is sad and a little funny to see MAGAs rejoicing that Trump announced a meeting.

The bar gets lower and lower.

My how the world has changed. Countries no longer fear USA as india says a big FU to american tariffs and will still purchase Russian oil but will no longer buy american jets and missiles

I think what’s changed is a minority elected ruling class is trying to dictate to other countries what their foreign policy should be. To them, this is what it means to be strong. No one else believes this so they aren’t having anything to do with it. If “America” had tried this in the past, the reaction would have been the same.
