And then they cancel democracy in Romania.
Paul Craig Roberts: "The electorate in Romania chose Calin Georgescu as their president. But the West said NO! You see, Georgescu is opposed to US military bases on Romania’s border with Russia. So a Romanian judge was paid a bagful of money to cancel the election. The current president, whose term expires December 21, following Zelensky’s lead declared he would stay in office. I have wondered why Biden did not do the same thing.
"The judge vacated the will of the Romanian people, because he ruled that Russia using the social media TikTok interfered with the election. For reasons I don’t understand, when a newspaper endorses a candidate it is not interfering with an election. Neither is it interfering when plutocrats donate millions of dollars, thus purchasing the government to serve their interests. Celebrities can endorse, etc., but it only is interference if it happens in social media and the result is not what the ruling elite require..
"The West also doesn’t accept the vote of the Georgian people who elected a parliament that is not hostile to Russia. That country’s president, a French citizen, says she won’t step down either.
It seems democracy is no longer a Western value if it interferes with Western agendas. This reduces democracy to a cover for elite agendas."
Well, it was not Russia using TikTok. It was Romania's own deep state functionaries.
Mark Wauck: "...something extremely sinister happened in Romania: a ruling party used intelligence services to cancel an election based on "foreign interference" evidence that they themselves paid for!"
"Maybe they looked at the American model and said, ‘Hey, that doesn’t look so hard—we can do that, too!’ Then again, maybe CIA/MI6 showed them how."

Let the Minneapolis arrests begin.
As revealed in a 1955 research and development program memo from the CIA’s Technical Services Staff/Chemical Division, the MK Ultra objectives went far beyond interrogation tools. They envisioned a arsenal of covert chemicals designed to manipulate behavior on a massive scale, administered without detection to render people compliant, confused, or crippled.
Here’s the smoking gun: the memo’s explicit list of desired substances and methods, quoted verbatim from the declassified records:
Substances which will promote illogical thinking and impulsiveness to the point where the recipient would be discredited in public.
Substances which increase the efficiency of mentation and perception.
Materials which will prevent or counteract the intoxicating effect of alcohol.
Materials which will promote the intoxicating effect of alcohol.
Materials which will produce the signs and symptoms of recognized diseases in a reversible way so that they may be used for malingering, etc.

Janet Yellen shocked the banking world when she said that America's “needed belt tightening is significant—larger than in most programs supported by the International Monetary Fund."
Yes, even larger than the bankrupt nations now beholden to the IMF, which demands a kind of austerity Americans might not survive. Examples:
By 2010, Greek debt had spiraled to 130% of GDP and climbing. No one was willing to lend them money anymore... forcing the IMF to swoop in with a "rescue" package that came with brutal strings attached.
Pensions were slashed by 40%. Public sector wages were frozen, then cut. Over 150,000 government workers were laid off. State assets—airports, ports, utilities—were sold off at fire-sale prices to foreign investors.
Greece's economy contracted by 25%. Youth unemployment hit 60%. An entire generation was hollowed out.
Argentina has been through the IMF wringer multiple times; in fact in in 2018, Argentina received the largest bailout in IMF history: $57 billion....
