MAIN DESK—BIDEN’S BIG BOY SUMMIT—The roundtable discusses Biden’s carefully scripted but underwhelming “Big Boy” press conference, which, to no one’s surprise, turned out much more an electoral campaign speech—often mumbled—than a presidential presser, the whole concoction punctuated by hilarious gaffes that Biden’s mental deterioration now make almost inevitable (like confusing Zelensky with Putin—of all people). In addition, guest Jeff Brown paints a comprehensive picture of the global strategic situation, with a focus on Asia, where America’s futile attempts to surround China with military bases and alliances in order to stop its rise to global prominence, (already a fait accompli), is opening yet another front for a major kinetic war threatening humanity with nuclear Armageddon. A SECOND VIDEO-THE WEAPONISATION OF IGNORANCE—is also part of this outstanding package.

EDITOR—7/5/2024 Episode 93 of Blowback: Exposing Imperial Decline with special guest Alex Suarez. While the East continues to strengthen their ties, US empire vassals actually boast of their abject vassalage as seen in smoothly produced cringeworthy propaganda pieces circulating on social media, with Ukrainians celebrating the 4th of July, and Kosovars shamelessly licking the boot of the Empire by impersonating Americans and doing line dancing. Unfortunately, this kind of foolishness has awful consequences, as the Ukrainian nation is demonstrating.
The panel also examines the Assange case, including a persistent cloud of accusations describing Assange as a spy or a limited hangout working for the CIA; or an operative working for or against the Russians or Chinese, or as a tool for or against the Republicans or Democrats. All that is nonsense says guest Alex Suarez, who claims authoritative knowledge of Assange. The activist, says Suarez, was not a tool of the Russians, nor was he a shady player helping the Trump campaign.

GENNADY ZYUGANOV—We should all understand that a war of annihilation has been launched against us. Its aim is to dismember our country, to enslave the people and turn our lands into a zone of colonial plunder. It is fraught not only with large-scale losses: to lose in this situation means to disappear.
The present challenge is as fateful as the Time of Troubles in the 17th century, the Patriotic War of 1812, the foreign intervention in 1918-20, the clash with fascism during the Great Patriotic War and the treacherous destruction of the USSR. The USA and its Nato accomplices have set about to multiply their vicious achievements of the ‘wild 90s’.

EDITOR—While most of the collective West’s leaders are tumbling from power, Vladimir Putin is undeniably stronger than ever, notes Garland Nixon jocularly, attributing such course of events to the dreaded “Zelensky curse”, afflicting all leaders that once vociferously proclaimed their desire to topple the president of Russia. Garland also analyses the horrific implications of Biden’s (America’s) imperialist adventurism, which leads inexorably to WW3 and the end of humanity.
