The Era of “Standing” With Foreign Nations Must End
By @ChrisRossini

America’s Founders were very explicit on how our relationships with foreign nations should be conducted.

George Washington: “It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world…”

Thomas Jefferson: “peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations—entangling alliances with none."

John Quincy Adams: “America... goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all.”

We’re all familiar with the saying “By their fruits, ye shall know them.” Well, we are several centuries away from America’s Founders, and our nation has ignored their wise advice. The fruits of ignoring them are rotten to the core.

We now stand at the edge of total bankruptcy, with a Trump Administration and @DOGE feverishly trying to salvage the damage that has been done. All because America refused to mind its own business.

The 100 year-old fixation of entrenching ourselves in the affairs of other nations left the door wide open for internal rot to take hold.

When your focus is outward, the inward falls to pieces. Bridges collapse, planes get into accidents, cities are destroyed, and morality descends into the sewer.

Waste and fraud become the way of life. “Public servants” help themselves to the public’s money.

DOGE is exposing the waste and fraud, but they haven’t even scratched the surface.

The biggest (and most indebted) government in the history of the world cannot be exposed in just a couple of weeks. I’m sure even DOGE cannot fathom what is still waiting for them.

America has approximately 1,000 military bases sprawled all over the planet. That’s the extreme that we have reached.

Our president is expected to have an opinion on the goings-on of every nation. Why? He’s the President of The United States, elected by the American people.

He’s not “The President of The World.”

Yet, a decent number of Americans will rabidly reply “Oh yes he is the President of The World!”

So the problem is not simply located in the halls of government alone. Much of the public has bought in.

Why would we even burden President Trump with such an impossible task? Does he not have the same number of ticks of the clock that the rest of us have?

Is the United States not a big enough problem for The President of The United States? Do we not have enough to put on his plate?

The reality is, our problems are so massive that they’re ready to completely overwhelm and consume us.

Our American ancestors would never have dared to say that George Washington was the “The President of The World.”

Because our ancestors had the correct mentality of ‘staying in their own lane,’ the results that they produced were magnificent. Their America ended up producing a prosperity, the likes of which had never been seen before.

But prosperity comes with caveats. It can go to your head. You can easily start to think you’re something that you’re not.

Prosperity can sucker you into thinking that YOU are tasked with remaking the world in your own image!

That was the road taken at the beginning of the 1900's, and we have 1,000 military bases to prove it.

Another Founder, James Madison, said: “No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.”

We ignored him too.

And now here we are, broke and trying to dig ourselves out of the abyss.

As we dig ourselves out, all of the entrenched interests are lined up against it, fighting to preserve the status quo…fighting to make sure that America remains the busybody of the world.

$1 TRILLION is siphoned from the American people PER YEAR (!) for the warfare state.

There’s no way that the entrenched military-industrial-complex wants to see that bonanza come to an end.

The irony of it all is that we Americans truly have been blessed. We have two massive oceans that protect us from harm.

Do you know how many nations wished they had two massive oceans to protect them? Their enemies are very often right next door.

But we were the lucky ones to win the geographic lottery; and we blew it!

We have been trained to be afraid of our own shadows; and that fear costs us $1 TRILLION per year!

No invasions have occurred in our history, with the exception of the invasion that our own government facilitated by opening our borders!

We were not destroyed from without; but from within.

The good news is, people can change. We are not robots doomed to a preprogrammed fate. The bad news is, change hurts…bad.

Change means swallowing your pride.

The vision of our Founders can be revived. But it’s going to take a will that has not existed for over 100 years in America.

The temptation for more war, and more entanglements will constantly be dangled in front of us.

“We have to intervene over there! We just have to!”

But if we bite, we’re dead meat.

The Good Lord gives everyone (and every nation) a chance to amend their ways. But the slack that He provides is not an infinite slack.

The focus of America should be on rebuilding and setting a good example for other nations to emulate.

We wish other nations well.

But the idea of “standing��� with other nations and handing out "foreign aid" must be buried in the past.

It must be buried as something that nearly buried us.

Do Adam “I Have Seen Secret Evidence of Trump-Russia Collusion” Schiff and allied intelligence officials possess the basic common sense to apologize for their disastrous Russiagate scam?

No, but with Tulsi Gabbard now confirmed as DNI, maybe there’ll be more to find out:

Back in March 2022.

You all opted out.

Sit down and shut up.

Let the big boys solve it.

[Richard Gage, AIA, Architect @RichardGage_911]

[RG911Team] Now that Congresswoman @RepLuna has declared intent to join Trump in reinvestigating 9/11, we MUST use this rare opportunity to hold them accountable.

We will not settle for a whitewash.

We will not settle for documents full of redactions.

We will not settle for “national security” excuses.

We will not settle for limited hangout operations that nibble at the edges of the truth.

We will not settle for business as usual.

We will NOT wait around for them to hand us the complete truth on a silver platter.

We will use every tool available to push for FULL 9/11 disclosure.

Some people think that’s a waste of time, that those in power are deceiving us.

But we will try nonetheless.

Because the people who died on 9/11, and everyone who died because of 9/11, deserve nothing less.

@katalin_pota i agree susan.

[Scott Ritter @RealScottRitter]

What’s fascinating is that the US and Russia will be negotiating without Ukraine, and without a ceasefire.

Which means Russia will control the negotiations by controlling the battlefield.

I think this is deliberate on the part of Trump.

It will compel Ukraine to beg for peace.

Using the US as the conduit.

Say yes🍉🇵🇸

The press conference with Trump and Jordan’s King Abdullah was sickening. While Trump laid out his disgraceful plan for ethnic cleansing in Gaza, King Abdullah sat there meekly, subservient to his master. Shame on Abdullah and all the Arab “leaders” who watched the Israeli genocide and are now refusing to stand up to Trump’s delusions.

[Dan Bongino @dbongino]

lol. Pee-pee tape dude, who got duped by Russian prank callers, is commenting on “intelligence.” 😂🤡

[Patrick Henningsen @21WIRE]

IT’S A DUMB IDEA TO SEND YOUR CIA DIRECTOR TO OPEN NEGOTIATIONS…

But then again, @realDonaldTrump @POTUS often does very dumb, ill-conceived moves. Typical Trump, he first picks someone (Kellogg) who is given an impossible job and with ZERO diplomatic or Russian experience (but who appears on FOX News a lot, so that means he’s qualified for something in Trump’s eyes), so not competent, then throws a temper tantrum. Now he’s forced to raid his cabinet (including the CIA director?) for some hopefully competent men (all with no real Russia experience or knowledge) to forge a diamond from a pile of cow dung.

Because the U.S. holds no cards in Ukraine, other than a card pair of Jokers…

Trump: “I have asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Director of the CIA John Ratcliffe, National Security Advisor Michael Waltz, and Ambassador and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, to lead the negotiations which, I feel strongly, will be successful.”

(good luck to Trump’s ‘yes men’ team of loyal deputies - FYI: one of you may get sacked before it’s over)

“Millions of people have died in a war…” - Again, this President always feels compelled to just make up numbers out of thin air to help deflect from/or bolster what is obviously a very weak and ill-informed position to begin with…

I seriously hope he doesn’t bring his typical arrogant/ignorant ‘know it all’ (while faking it) attitude to the table with the Russians - that would be a huge mistake.

Good luck Donald! And we hope you at least looked in a map to know where everything is! 🙏🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦

@libsoftiktok Did you know that Israel was behind the JFK assassination. Jacob Leon Rubenstein shot Harvey Oswald to keep him quiet and never saw a day of jail.

JFK tried to shut down Israel’s nuclear program and register AIPAC as a foreign agent.

[timothy p. walters @timothypwalter1]

@libsoftiktok mossad did both.

🚨HOLY CRAP!🚨

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna says her FIRST investigation will be the JFK assassination.

“Based on what I've seen, the initial hearing held in Congress was FAULTY. I believe there were TWO SHOOTERS.”

[Jimmy Dore @jimmy_dore]

Funny how they immediately change their tune when they get what they always said they wanted, oversight and audits of how the Federal gov. spends its money.

I'm agree with the previous version Liz Warren, I too want transparency in government spending .

I wonder why the current Liz Warren did a 180 & now opposes her previous position?

The israelis will resume bombing Gaza if their captives aren’t released, but the israelis will resume bombing Gaza even if they ARE released #Catch22
