Dear CCI Friends,
This information below is totally antithetical to what American citizens are now polling and demonstrating against. Who in our government supports this direction that NATO is taking?
Why are our 2020 Presidential candidates silent, with the exception of Congresswoman Gabbard? Read below and consider, “How much will these War Games cost us taxpayers individually and collectively?” It is morally unjustifiable with the great unmet needs of our society that are going unfinanced.
Dear CCI Readers,
Natylie Baldwin is keeping up with the latest on Russia’s constitutional changes announced on January 15, 2020, as well as shifts in personalities to carry forward the new policies. I essentially agree with her analyses so far and am glad to pass this latest report on to you.
I’m busy putting together CCI’s 2020 Travel Schedule. More to follow shortly.
Dear CCI Friends,
I’ve had numerous emails since Putin’s moves to change Russia’s constitution have become public. Like the rest of you, I have no insider track; however, some thoughts follow.
Putin’s moves are usually misunderstood by Americans since U.S. media have intentionally misinterpreted his words and actions for the past 20 years. They’ve labeled him everything from a thug to a murderer in our daily news. As a result Americans have no real understanding of Putin the man … his style or his leadership.
I met with Putin in the early 90s over a program I hoped to run in St. Petersburg. He was quiet, asked pertinent questions and tried everyway possible to approve my proposal, but in the end said, “I’m very sorry but under today’s laws, this proposal isn’t legal.” Other Russian bureaucrats would have requested a bribe and been ready to sign off on it.
Dear CCI Friends,
Two major themes are competing for space in all news agencies today.
1. Putin’s radical changes in the Russian government from now forward.
2. Continued reverberations across the world regarding Soleimani’s assassination.
Natylie Baldwin’s excellent analysis of Putin’s changes will be first, followed by my backgrounder that may give perspective to the role Putin plays in this week’s news. Then the coverage on Soleimani’s death and its impact throughout the world.
Dear CCI Friends,
Do you feel we are being overwhelmed with ‘indicting’ information never before mentioned? We are learning about the governance of our nation that had not leaked out previously. Why do we have 800 military bases outside of the U.S.? I was shocked to learn this. Why are we involved in wars of numerous countries at one time? How did we come to accept this as normal? Why is our U.S. military budget the largest in the world? How much is there that we don’t know?
Many Americans are awakening to facts we’ve never heard of previously. Who are we to believe? What are we to do?
We must learn to open our eyes and ears. We must insist that the mainstream media educate us … not deceive us. What can we believe … if we can no longer trust our mainstream media? We’ve come to a turning point in our history. We MUST return to the right use of American intentions, resources and power … rather than trying to rule the world.
