Venezuela’s illegitimate radical socialist leader Nicolás Maduro is planning to host the three new ‘Axis of Evil’ regimes in war games known as the ‘Sniper Frontier’ competition this August. This is according to a report by the Center for a Secure Free Society. Not only that but the terrible trio will be joined by ten other nations who will “preposition forward-deployed military assets in Latin America and the Caribbean.” The report notes that these numerous regimes from across the globe are uniting and “getting ready to make a loud statement that the region is ready to embrace the multipolar force.” The Washington Free Beacon explains a…
Based on China’s ownership claims and belligerent expansionist actions toward the entire South China Sea, it should not seem far-fetched that it is planning a similar takeover of the moon. And NASA’s chief is now saying just that. In a two-part analysis in August 2021, I wrote about the upcoming potential battle with China for a moon base site. I wrote that: “There may be only a few locations on the moon where it would make economic sense to build a base, said Bleddyn Bowen, a professor at the University of Leicester and author of War in Space: Strategy, Spacepower, Geopolitics, and this…

ANALYSIS – Karma? Can this be more ironic? The notoriously anti-police and pro-BLM Democratic mayor of Louisville, Kentucky – Greg Fischer – was punched in the face and knocked to the ground by a black suspect at a Juneteenth event on Saturday, June 18 in the city’s downtown area. His security detail did not prevent the assault nor detain the suspect, despite one agent pursuing the man after the attack. The Blaze reported that: Greg Gitschier — a former Secret Service agent and former bodyguard of the mayor — told WHAS-TV that “it’s becoming an upside-down world because lines that were never crossed so…
The relatively poor performance of Russian forces and weapons in Ukraine has impacted how the world views Russian military hardware, affecting its foreign weapons sales. But is it having an effect on Chinese weapons too, most of which are Russian-made or have origins in Russian designs? It may be too soon to tell, but except for some smaller but still deadly items like armed drones, and sales to rogue, sanctioned nations like Iran, China’s global arms sales are shrinking, not growing. Despite China trying, no one seems to be interested in buying the latest Chinese big-ticket items like tanks, jet…
ANALYSIS – On Friday I wrote about whether former President Trump wanted to lead an armed mob to the Capitol on Jan. 6 as some of the media have claimed based on the explosive testimony of former Trump chief of staff aide Cassidy Hutchinson. My conclusions on that question can be read here. Since then, much of the media attention has shifted to the claim that Trump lunged at the steering wheel of his presidential vehicle and attacked one of his Secret Service agents when they refused to take him to the Capitol for security reasons. I noted that Trump reportedly screamed at his…
One of former President Donald Trump’s bigger accomplishments, the U.S. Space Force, is moving forward in its mission to protect the country from threats to its space-borne assets, as well as space-borne threats to the country. Its latest effort is called ‘Space Delta 18.’ Part of Space Operations Command, it will be the Space Force’s spy agency – the National Space Intelligence Center. Tasked with providing “critical intelligence on threat systems, foreign intentions and activities in the space domain,” it will identify threats to the United States’ space assets, both kinetic and non-kinetic. As Space.com reports: “Kinetic” in this sense refers to threats that…

More backlash against “defund the police” candidates… In a statement supporting incumbent Republican Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, 102 sheriffs in the state condemned Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams over her support of “soft-on-crime policies.” (RELATED: Police Groups Dump Nation’s Most Vulnerable Democrat) The statement also criticized Abrams for “advancing the Defund the Police movement” through her board membership for a far left, Seattle-based grant-making group, which the sheriffs called an “anti-police organization.” (RELATED: Violent Crime Spike Linked to Defund Police Movement) The sheriffs wrote: Stacey Abrams has repeatedly shown complete disdain for law enforcement and the risk we take every day putting our lives on…
