Perhaps the most important statement to come out of AmericaFest 2025 in its first convention since the assassination of Turning Point founder Charlie Kirk, was that made by U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard regarding the intention of “EU and NATO” to “pull the U.S. military into direct conflict with Russia.” Gabbard doubled down on that statement in social media posts, where she blasted London’s The Guardian’s fake news that “new intel” from Democrat Mike Quigley on the House Intel Committee reveals that Putin intends to take Europe.
“No, this is a lie and propaganda @Reuters is willingly pushing on behalf of warmongers who want to undermine President Trump’s tireless efforts to end this bloody war….
“The truth is the U.S. intelligence community has briefed policymakers, including the Democrat HPSCI [House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence] member quoted by Reuters, that U.S. Intelligence assesses that Russia seeks to avoid a larger war with NATO. It also assesses that, as the last few years have shown, Russia’s battlefield performance indicates it does not currently have the capability to conquer and occupy all of Ukraine, let alone Europe.”
It certainly appears as if every time Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, or even President Donald Trump personally, engages with their Russian counterparts and an understanding begins to emerge, a butt-pinching football-style huddle of the “Coalition of the Willing” comes together to move the goalposts and stop the war from ending. This is particularly cynical on the part of the Ukrainian puppet leaders, who seem to have no regard for the number of soldiers being killed and how much territory they are losing with every passing week on the battlefield.
Does President Donald J. Trump agree with the assessment of his DNI? He hasn’t indicated that he does, but it is of note that she posted that message on her official accounts, as opposed to her warning of nuclear war last June, which she made in a personal capacity.
In the Caribbean, American lawlessness continues with the seizure of the third oil tanker, this time not on any sanctions list, and two more small boats being bombed, killing 5, bringing the death toll to 104.
In Bethlehem, Palestine, the birthplace of Jesus, Israeli settler violence and killings continue, despite a nominal “ceasefire” in Gaza, which is also violated daily, while upwards of 800,000 Palestinians suffer winter rains without adequate shelter, food, or medical care.
This is not to minimize the suffering of many thousands more in Sudan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (D.R.C.), or Haiti.
Not surprisingly, inside the United States, millions of Americans are about to lose the already-inadequate “healthcare” provided by Obama’s phony “Affordable Care Act,” and up to 4 million Americans will have one or more utilities cut off due to lack of payment by the end of this year.
There is no reason for all of this suffering.
In 1991, while serving 5 years of a 15-year sentence in federal prison, American statesman Lyndon LaRouche wrote a book entitled The Science of Christian Economy. In it, he stated that the biggest threat to British liberalism and Malthusianism is the American System of political economy, rooted in the work of the founders of modern science, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz and Nicholas of Cusa.
LaRouche asserted that the metric of human economic success is an increase in potential relative population density, i.e., that a given area of land, through human intervention, is capable of sustaining a growing number of people with a higher standard of living. Consider the impact of the use of fire to cook food, and later to power machines, on life expectancy and quality of life.
The battle today is not between Communism and Libertarianism, two equally flawed systems based on the same axiomatic assumptions regarding man and nature, but between the billionaire elite class and the majority of the human race. It is worth remembering, especially as we approach Christmas, that “Jesus was born in a manger because there was no room in the inn.”
