USG is at War with Russia

Market Ticker: We Are Now At War With Russia

By agreeing to provide direct weaponry that can be and will be used in the waging of war by one of the two parties to same we have entered the conflict. That our GIs are not directly there is of no consequence.

This is no different than shipping arms to Britain during WWI in the Lusitania or the lend-lease provisions in early WWII that ultimately led us to get involved there in Europe. Indeed Pelosi directly referenced those early WWII provisions indicating that she knows damn well the implications of what Congress just did.

In fact it was lend-lease of March 1941 that led Hitler to come after the United States; we had entered the war as a belligerent by officially agreeing to supply war material to Britain.

In those two wars there was no realistic means for the Germans or other Axis powers to hit us directly on our own soil. But they did in fact do that in response when they sunk the Lusitania, which had a bunch of Americans on board. They could reach that ship, did reach it, and did sink it. They did so because we were supplying England with munitions.

We claimed at the time we were not, we were lying and that is now established as a historical fact.

The Germans hit a legitimate military target despite our and Britain's claims at the time otherwise.

Today the situation is different. Russia can hit us here and not just with nukes. They can hit American assets that are by any reasonable international standard military targets all over the world and that includes military command and control which by our Constitution includes all members and facilities of both Houses of Congress along with the Executive, never mind obvious things like the Pentagon.

I don't think Putin is crazy enough to do it right up front but do not mistake "doesn't" tomorrow morning for "can't" -- the door is open.

Don't kid yourselves folks; such a strike, if it occurs, is entirely legal from an international law perspective under the laws of war. It is legitimate for a belligerent to strike the military elements, direct and indirect, of an entity supplying its opposing military.

People who want to start wars with Russia should remember how things ended for Hitler and Napoleon. And if you think the authoritarianism won't ramp up at home, think again. It will be illegal to dissent against war with Russia and you will go to prison if you dissent because the lives of these politicians instigating this war will be on the line. First because they could be targeted by Russian, and probably Chinese, Iranian, North Korean and so on assets in the USA (nice job with the open borders, dipshits). And then by the angry American public if the war goes poorly, which it inevitably will.

If you know anyone who is falling for this Ukraine and Russia propaganda bullshit, try to wake them up because we could be months away from WWIII. Once it starts, you cannot dissent unless you're willing to be a martyr who goes to prison. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but if you have a family and responsibilities, probably not a great idea. Would Assange have made different decisions if he knew his fate? I don't know. That's up to each individual.

Being bearish on assets, being seen as anti-U.S. dollar will also likely become illegal and imprisonable offsenses. The Biden admin has already created a "...Disinformation Governance Board to coordinate countering misinformation related to homeland security, focused specifically on irregular migration and Russia." You will go to jail if you dissent from anything the government says. So be real sure that you want to go to full on nuclear war with Russia because once you make that choice, you own it, and you are going to have to 100-percent support the most retarded, incompetent ruling class in the history of the United States. You are tying yourself to the mast of clownworld and you will go down with the ship.

American patriots, your duty is to defend your land and your families and your nation from all threats, foreign and domestic. Russia hasn't signaled it is a threat to the American nation yet. We are not at war with Russia and have no plans to be at war with Russia.
