One of the defining failures of modern American government has been the steady erosion of Congress's constitutional authority over war. The Constitution grants Congress - not the president - the power to declare war. Congress decides to go to war. The president wages it.
Over the past several decades, presidents of both major parties have increasingly treated military intervention as an executive prerogative rather than a congressional requirement.
"Strategic Coordination" Directed against Russia ?

Germany and France are weaving a dense web of strike options - US nuclear gravity bombs carried by German F‑35s, French nuclear‑capable "Rafales" operating from French and German bases and US‑supplied land‑based missile systems like "Typhon", which carries the "Tomahawk" that can reach deep into Russian territory.

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said during a conference on Tuesday that Israel "has no interest" in participating in the ongoing military exchanges between the US and Iran, asserting that "the current situation is the best one for us."
While Smotrich is certainly correct that it is to Israel's benefit to stand aside and let the Americans do all the fighting and dying in this conflict, this is a noteworthy admission about a war that the US State Department says the White House ordered "at the request of and in the collective self-defense of its Israeli ally."

President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are making me feel like I'm smack dab back in the middle of the old Cold War racket - the racket that succeeded in making the U.S. national-security state and its ever-growing army of "defense" contractors a permanent feature of American life.
The State Department just issued a report that is straight out of the old Cold War playbook.

Investigative journalist Mary Fanning presents the indisputable forensic evidence of a massive cyberattack during the 2020 Election that stole millions of votes from Donald Trump, showing the IP addresses of the attackers, visible in the data logs, of which there are thousands of pages. You can read her article about it here.
The logs record the origin IPs, the computer ID at the origin, the target IP, the target device ID, what kind of intrusion was attempted and whether or not it was successful.

As readers know, I am disappointed in US, European, British, Russian, and Iranian foreign policy analysts inside and outside of government, and most likely also the Chinese if I knew more about them. They dwell in false narratives that John Helmer terms "hopium."
Opposed to the false narratives stand myself, John Helmer, and Gilbert Doctorow, three against many.

Let's consider the arguments of those who advocate global governance, the people whom Hrvoje Morić identifies as the Multipolaristas. They are often engaged in China-maxxing and are, whether they know it or not, essentially serving as propagandists for the global oligarchy.
Research conducted by analysts working for the South China Morning Post (SCMP)-an English-speaking, Western-aligned Chinese news outlet-suggests that, between 2015 and 2025, a notable shift occurred in the way China and its government were portrayed by the leading Western media organisations.

Epic Fury is only the latest round of an ongoing international armed conflict with Iran. As the United States has explained in multiple letters to the U.N. Security Council, including most recently on March 10, the United States is engaged in this conflict at the request of and in the collective self-defense of its Israeli ally, as well as in

Something shifted in the telemetry last March. Not the markets. Not the weather. Something deeper in the architecture of privilege. When the private Gulfstream G650 lifted off from Teterboro at 3:47 AM local time-its transponder squawking a destination that would change three times mid-flight before vanishing entirely from civilian radar over the Azores-it triggered an algorithm that had been dormant since the first lines of code were written in a converted server farm outside Reykjavik.

Writes Bill Madden:
The video above is worthwhile with Catherine Austin Fitts discussing a bleak financial forecast involving our future.
I'm currently reading The Big Print. Anyone interested in our monetary system and how the super-rich manipulate our economy via "their" Washington politicians and bureaucrats would probably enjoy this book and, at the sale time, learn things which might help them to protect their assets as our economy contracts.

Au cours de sa présidence des BRICS, l'Inde s'efforce de transformer l'organisation élargie en un mécanisme efficace de coopération pratique, en se concentrant sur le renforcement de la résilience économique, le développement des systèmes de paiement numériques, le soutien aux petites et moyennes entreprises et la promotion des intérêts du Sud global sur la scène internationale.

En 2025, la balance des paiements de la France affiche un solde courant quasiment à l'équilibre. De quoi se rassurer ? Pas vraiment. Derrière ce résultat flatteur se cache un mécanisme bien plus fragile : un déficit massif sur les biens, colmaté par le tourisme, les services et les revenus que les multinationales tirent de l'étranger, tandis que la dépendance aux capitaux extérieurs ne cesse de s'aggraver.

Come il recente summit Nato in Turchia segna una radicalizzazione del confronto tra occidente e la sua periferia orientale, inasprendo un confronto che va dal Baltico fino al medio oriente.
Non possono che definirsi nebulosi le prospettive di una risoluzione della crisi politico/militare che sconvolge lo scacchiere est europeo da anni e quello mediorientale da mesi: il recentissimo summit dell'Alleanza atlantica tenutosi ad Ankara - nel dirimere una serie di questioni di fondo - segna senza dubbio un passo indietro, in senso generale, andando ad interferire col graduale processo di attenuazione delle ostilità in queste aree.
