Who Is Authorizing Bidens Nuclear Brinkmanship While The Presidents Brain Is Missing? by Ms Caitlin Johnstone
Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):
It is so fun how the Biden administration is using its lame duck months to skyrocket hostilities between nuclear superpowers and we do not even know who is really making these decisions because the presidents brain is cottage cheese.
Ukraine has already begun using United States-supplied long-range missiles in Russia, despite President Putins warning that this exact sort of escalation will place NATO at war with Russia. This happens as Russia officially changes its nuclear doctrine to lower the threshold for when it is permissible to use nuclear weapons in retaliation for attacks on its territory.
So far the attacks appear to have been mostly repelled without having done any significant damage.
This is frightening, but I have a hard time imagining that Russia makes any extreme moves against the United States before Donald Trump takes office. It seems like they would want to wait and see what Donald Trump does once he gets in before taking any horrifying risks like that. It is much more likely that Russia will instead respond to this escalation by escalating its attacks on Ukraine, like it normally does.
Who knows, though? If these attacks on Russia continue, there is literally no limit to how bad this could get.

These escalations happen as Ukrainians begin moving into a majority consensus that it is time to seek peace. A new Gallup poll has found that a majority of Ukrainians throughout the country now support peace talks to end the war with Russia, with 52 percent favoring peace and 38 percent wanting to fight on.
As usual people are more opposed to continuing the war the closer they are to the frontline, with 63 percent of the respondents in eastern Ukraine supporting peace talks and only 27 percent wanting to continue fighting. The further you are from the effects of this horrific proxy war the more likely you are to support it; it is just as true inside Ukraines borders as it is when you include all the western armchair warriors who want to continue fighting to the last Ukrainian.
"Listen to the Ukrainians," we were told when all this started. Well, here they are. This proxy war has been waged in the name of defending Ukrainian democracy, and yet it continues to dangerously escalate against the will of the majority, at the direction of a president in Kyiv whose elected term ended months ago.
Fighting a war with Russia always seems like a swell idea until you actually try it. The fact that the majority of Ukrainians now support ending the war is yet another example of this oft-repeated history lesson.
The only way to view Donald Trump as significantly worse than Biden is to take very little interest in United States foreign policy, and the only way to take so little interest in United States foreign policy is to care very little about non-western lives.
Every day I am interacting with liberals who inadvertently reveal that they are only just now beginning to pay close attention to what has happening in Gaza, now that they will be able to blame the genocide on someone else.
I was just talking to a Democrat who informed me I am going to miss Biden after hundreds of Palestinians begin starving to death in Gaza when Donald Trump gets into office. I told him Palestinians are believed to be starving to death by the tens of thousands presently; we just do not hear about it because indirect deaths like malnutrition are not part of the official daily death toll.
It is so much worse than they realize because they spent more than a year looking the other way while it was happening, so now you will often see them warning that Trump is going to do things that Biden has been doing this entire time.
People who say you get more conservative as you get older are just projecting their own personal shittiness onto everyone else. I get more radicalized by the year. It is not even about older people having more wealth to protect; I am making more money than ever before and I still want to obliterate capitalism.
You get more conservative and right wing as you get older if you fail to grow as you age. It just means you have been wasting your time on this planet and allowing yourself to become intellectually lazy and morally stagnant!
