Geopolitical Focus – April 2023

Who is running the world? Is it the WEF with the Young Global Leaders, the G7(8), the G20, or the UN? Or is it Soros and the left-founded activist groups, or an adaptive EU, American plutocracy consisting of Wall Street, Hedge Funds, and Private Equity groups active in ESG and DE&I? All of these entities are part of a global governance system that promotes self-interest under the guise of saving the world, but it actually divides the world, as one WEF critique phrase puts it, into the elite, the workers, and the useless eaters!

While all of the aforementioned groups, including religious leaders, are becoming part of moralizing and behavioral institutions, they are not fundamental traits of Western societies and their values. Instead, they create a substitute for religion that itself creates their values as if they were God's. Never mind the comparison. Yes, technology and science allow us to replicate a lot, and religion has not always served its purpose. However, people are moralizing on good or bad. Will that bring us to advancement or tribal activism? As much as we want to make everyone equal, perhaps we should develop and agree upon a manifesto that all of the aforementioned institutions can support, which would serve a better plan than the Paris Climate Accord, which is a dislodged agreement of no consequence.

What is the US supposed to teach the world? According to some individuals with on-the-ground knowledge of Russia, Putin has an approval rating of 80%, and Russians have a better life under his administration than previous ones. However, failed global policies and an overly aggressive NATO provoke wars. One might wonder what purpose NATO serves other than being a puppet for the US and the EU. For more information, one can check the original mission of NATO:

NATO is a collective security system: its independent member states agree to defend each other against attacks by third parties. During the Cold War, NATO operated as a check on the threat posed by the Soviet Union. The alliance remained in place after the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact, and has been involved in military operations in the Balkans, the Middle EastSouth Asia, and Africa. The organization's motto is animus in consulendo liber[5] (Latin for "a mind unfettered in deliberation")


Note that when the Berlin Wall came down, all Russian troops stationed in the GDR went home to Russia. However, the US stayed, and under the then-leadership of war hawk Bush senior, NATO began its eastward expansion without pursuing an integration policy. Instead, they promoted Russia phobia or the idea that communism is bad, all while opening the flood gates to China. So, what is the world's next move to create peace?

After the US sold out to China, thanks to the elites' profit-making, it appears that the same people now fear for our national security and prepare for potential wars. On the other side, we use Ukraine as a proxy, with European consent and support, to fight a war against Russia all in the name of defending democracy or claiming global superiority. Meanwhile, the Chinese work around the world with diplomacy, India is more interested in Russia's cheap oil, and the West is invested in woke culture, green no-plan investments, and fighting wars.

Most impressively, the leading draft dodgers in Germany in the 1960s and 1970s are now the heads of the Green Party and the loudest voices for war support in Ukraine, claiming moral grounds, portraying Putin as evil, and Zelinski as an angel, ignoring all history of the Minsk agreement and NATO expansion. Biden, a Catholic, must have special permission from the Pope to engage in wars over peace talks.

That brings us back to the beginning. Everyone talks of a restart and an optimal world, but all are quiet on the wars. They adopt useless sanctions and dream that Russia will disappear. Perhaps we should start with ending special interests in US politics and Ukraine, where there is more interest in silencing opposition than in Russia. Unless there is a real interest in occupying Siberia, which would make strategic sense to invade China and hit Russia from the rear, posting rockets and artillery in Ukraine does not prevent Russia from cooperating with China and India, which represent 40% of the world's population and combined strongest economic power.

And if all goes south, Germany will no longer be a partner with China, but form a superpower with the US. Is that why Mrs. Baerbock and Macron recently visited China, to bully Xi? Well, China still sits comfortably on global resources in Africa and South America, despite Western news outlet propaganda.

Government shutdown averted, but at what cost for the Democratic party ? Is the new generation of Democrats so ideological that it raises the question of renaming them "Dementor-crats," taking ideology to defy any logic . Their hatred for Elon Musk and Trump runs so deep that they end up contradicting themselves. There is no question that the budget deficit now requires immediate action —not more taxes that suppress overall spending, but policies that fuel economic growth and increase tax revenue. Immigration : With border crossings at near-zero levels , we now have an opportunity to implement a merit-based immigration system to attract the skilled labor needed to support reshoring efforts. While it may not reduce the overall number of immigrants, it would shift budgets—moving from dependency to immediate economic contribution. The skilled labor gap is a documented reality —there is no denying it. The Teachers Union continues to claim it's helping everyone, yet it’s failing to educate children. Anger over budget cuts distracts from years of waste, and most states arguably perform better. The U.S. education system is currently ranked #31 globally , yet—like many Democrats—the union blames everyone else for its failures. Despite ranking #1 in per-pupil spending , the system cannot deliver the diversity and choice families want. So, who are we listening to—parents or unions ?

Tariffs, Dogecoin, and the Popper Paradox: Navigating Trade, Tolerance and much more in 2025

Timothy Snyder is an American historian specializing in the history of Central and Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union, and the Holocaust. His most recent analysis displays that " Hate" is not a good advisor .  But if you checked the Democratic representation during the Joint session of Congress , their body language suggested otherwise. As long as the Democrats are represented by "Dinosaurs" like Sanders, Waters, and Pelosi, even their strongest strategists may face challenges. James Carville , who is often outspoken, is shifting in rhetoric. Meanwhile, even a well-placed analyst will not change the overall impression . Her family farm was part of Hygrade Meat Company, founded by her great-grandfather Samuel Slotkin, who emigrated from Minsk in 1900. Hygrade was the original company behind Ball Park Franks , now owned by Tyson Foods . Chris Murphy commented via MoveOn.org but offered no solutions. Mary Trump , a psychologist, has long been a staunch critic of her uncle, frequently warning of the risks he poses. She said she was traumatized by his 2016 election win, fearing that he was uniquely ill-qualified to govern in a crisis. Let's follow all legal challenges for now. The Supreme Court has addressed the USAID ruling . Ultimately, the government will need to navigate these legal hurdles. Imagine: The endgame could be avoiding a Russia–BRICS alliance and instead fostering a Russia–US alliance, which could change the landscape of global peace. Given Russia and China's vast rare earth reserves, integration could be more beneficial than conflict. Gaza remains a focal point, and time will tell how the situation evolves. If diplomatic efforts succeed, we may see meaningful negotiations unfold in the near future.

Is Zelensky now running the world ? It appears so after his historic tantrum at the White House. Or is he merely a figure acting on behalf of the EU, Kaja Kallas, and European leaders (France, UK, Germany) to secure a seat at the table for “peace negotiations”? - Most likely, he is maneuvering to ensure continued EU support, including troops, while hoping that the EU convinces the Boltons of the US to send reinforcements as well. - Unfortunately for him, the US halted its advance in Berlin in 1945. Some on both sides may still be unhappy with that outcome. - Had Churchill and a real army continued, they could have pushed the Soviets back then. Note: The longer this conflict drags on, the only real losers are Ukraine and Europe. It's time for the US to explore trade agreements with Russia and South America. Accessing Russia via Alaska or Greenland remains an option. Should Europe be left to the Romans ? A Swiss newspaper featured an image of Mr. Murphy, who went on CNN after the meeting to ridicule JD and the President for their failure. Is he a traitor?
