We still don’t understand how a young man of 20 years old, armed with only a high-powered rifle, can walk within 150 yards of a presidential rally. The shooter then climbed onto a rooftop, directly in front of Secret Service Snipers. He then set up and fired a few rounds, almost killing an ex-US President.
Is anyone else watching this almost cataclysmic event and all that is happening in our country? China & Russia consider the United States as their greatest enemy. They must overcome them not only from the battlefield but also from within.
Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping and their respective spy services have evaluated recent American events – the Trump and Biden discussion, the Washington NATO Summit, and President Biden’s fitness for a second term.
They concluded, despite Washington’s rhetoric and bluster, that America’s safety was at risk. Would it surprise you to learn the two dictators did not exploit this? This is why.
First, between now and Jan. 20, the U.S. will continue to be led by a president who is seen as increasingly unable to fully discharge his duties as commander in chief, a critical vulnerability, especially in a time of crisis or even a war. The Trump-Biden presidential debate and the “Big Boy” presser, during which Biden called Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy “President Putin” and Kamala Harris “Vice President Trump,” confirmed what Putin and Xi, already knew – Biden is severely impaired, cognitively and physically.
Russian intelligence services and Chinese intelligence services who create profiles on each U.S. president were not surprised. Putin, Xi, and their supporters now know that Biden’s Administration is focused more on survival than U.S. Security.
The United States is further entangling itself in a war with Russia, which would be devastating. The Pentagon has no viable strategy to win such a battle, just like it does not currently have one in Ukraine. U.S. Intelligence believes that such a fight will likely cross the nuclear threshold.
At the Washington summit, the 32-member NATO alliance declared that Ukraine was “irreversible” on its path to NATO membership. Russia, and the United States, declared each other to be the greatest threat to their security.
On his orders, a war strategy involving cyber warfare, space weapons, and nuclear weapons was created. The Kremlin believes that this strategy will allow them to win on their terms.
Thirdly neither the United States nor NATO has the industrial capacity to wage a conflict against Russia.
Putin had prepared the Russian military and economy for a long war in Ukraine seven years before the invasion. Putin also sanction-proofed Russia’s economy, which has grown, contrary to Washington’s predictions. Russia has increased its defense budget by 70% in 2024 compared to 2023, thanks to $580 billion in gold and foreign currency reserves.
By 2023, drone manufacturing will increase by 80 percent.
While not officially at war, the U.S. and Europe lack the production capacity and contracting capability to match Putin’s massive military machine. Jens Stoltenberg (NATO Secretary General) admitted at an event hosted by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce last week that the West is not able to provide Ukraine with the military hardware it needs to continue the fight against Russia.
Contrary to Russia, Putin can personally order factories from civilian to military production. In contrast, in Russia, Putin can personally order factories to switch from civilian production to military production.
Many high-tech US weapons have failed in Ukraine. Russians developed countermeasures for what the Pentagon calls “network-centric war” after studying U.S. technology for more than 20 years. Russia’s superior electronic warfare capability has degraded or affected many U.S. systems that depend on GPS.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Ukrainian commanders report that certain U.S. weaponry is no longer being used in the field. Examples include the M982 Excalibur, developed by RTX and BAE Systems, and the small-diameter ground-launched bomb produced by Saab.
Col. Nicole Petrucci, a member of the AFA Warfighters In Action panel, expressed concern over the USSF’s ability to operate in hostile environments.
Another U.S. official has acknowledged that the U.S. could face a much greater threat in a conflict with China than the high level of electronic warfare taking place in Ukraine. China has plans to disable U.S. satellites in wartime, including through kinetic means.
Biden stated that NATO was stronger than ever at his Big Boy Press Conference. He also said that Article 5 of the NATO Charter which states that the United States must defend any NATO member if they are attacked is “sacred”. He stated that he “would not walk away” from Ukraine which has yet to join NATO.
Putin, Xi, and other dictators are pleased to know that the ex-President of the United States and possibly the future president of the U.S. is still alive due to an act of God, and not because of his well-protected safety.
