    And another fascinating development: Hawley to Garland: Explain this 25-agent FBI raid over a simple assault allegation – HotAir

    The FBI raids the home of a man charged with simple assault, after the local authorities declined to prosecute him. Assault not being a federal crime, and there being no circumstances that would have made it a federal crime. Granted, the man and his wife don't like abortion, and are publicly pro-life. The federal law enforcement apparatus has become the Democrat Party law enforcement apparatus.
    There was an FBI field office approximately 10 minutes down the road from Trump National up here in Jersey until just after the election. It had been there at the time we moved in around 2017.

    Apparent Sabotage Disables Nord Stream 1 and 2, Cutting Off All Direct Gas Supply to Germany from Russia

    This should surprise nobody: President Biden said in early February that in the event of a Russian invasion of Ukraine, “there will be no longer a Nord Stream 2, we will bring an end to it.” It’s well within the realm of possibility that such an attack would’ve been carried out with the tacit approval (or even upon the request) of the Scholz government, to relieve them of political pressure to open Nord Stream 2 or seek terms for a restoration of supply to Nord Stream 1 as the economy continues to circle the drain. The Greens are in government here, and Green-adjacent journalists have gone so far as to demand the dismantling of the pipelines to hurt Putin, so this too is far from crazy.

    The second scenario investigators are contemplating, according to the linked Tagesspiegel report, is of course a “‘false flag’ operation by Russia,” carried out to “drive up the price of gas,” “exacerbate the European energy crisis” and “fuel additional uncertainty.” Russia will surely be blamed for the attack as soon as it is confirmed, I have no doubt of that.

    The pipeline attacks come as a few prominent German politicians have demanded the opening of Nord Stream 2, and the subject has attracted a growing protest movement. Neither pipeline was currently transporting gas; Gazprom cut off supply to Nord Stream 1 at the end of August, citing maintenance issues exacerbated by EU sanctions, while the Scholz government refused to certify Nord Stream 2 following its completion in November 2021.

    UPDATES: Gonzalo Lira argues that the Americans have declared war on Europe; Noah Carl draws attention to an older piece he wrote on the “Nord Stream 2 theory” of the Ukraine war; hints of a possible method and an earlier, aborted attack on the pipeline are found in these stories about an underwater drone armed with explosives recovered near the pipeline construction site in 2015. Two Nord Stream 1 leaks have now been identified; like the Nord Stream 2 rupture, they’re near Bornholm. There are three ruptures in total.

    MOAR UPDATES: Danish armed forces have published a brief statement on the gas leaks, together with some photos.

    That circle of bubbling methane is apparently a kilometre in width. Nord Stream 1 was attacked in two places northeast of Bornholm, while one of the Nord Stream 2 pipes was breached off the southern tip of the island. This report from FAZ suggests the attacks happened at a depth of about 70 metres.
    They fooled us once after 9-11, and now we get to see if we're stupid enough to fall for it again. Unfortunately, the stakes are much higher this time.

    Vox Day comments
    on the Gonzalo Lira theory:

    Gonzalo Lira is absolutely right. This is the modern equivalent of Cortez burning his ships upon arrival in the New World. Occam’s Razor strongly suggests that the global imperialists headquartered in the USA are attempting to prevent the Europeans from surrendering to Russia and thereby freeing themselves from the satanic New World Order.

    “Now I realize that the Americans will stop at nothing to destroy all of their allies. Because what’s really happening is that the global American empire is collapsing and they are lashing out in all directions.”

    At this point, every nation on Earth would have to be crazy to cooperate with the US government in any way, much less comply with its demands. This destruction of Europe’s energy lifelines underlines the truth of Henry Kissinger’s famous aphorism: “To be an enemy of the US is dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal.”

    While this might be a little too fucking late. It is still welcomed.

    Interesting. They've been placing them in politically strategic locations for quite a while. Or at least since the Obama Administration.

I don't buy the argument that this is a strategic or tactical decision.
    Israel might have passed on elements of what they learned about Russias aerial arsenal during their Syrian campaigns. Mind you, even if Israel didn't do that, the US had enough manpower in Syria to study their aerial capabilities in great detail.

    Now, kiddies, where does copper come from, how is is produced and refined, and how much of it is there? Too many good points to quote, just read it all and share it.
    Similarly, can a wind turbine produce enough energy efficiently and reliably enough to produce more turbines.

    Let's revisit the situation in Italy, from Roger Kimball: Giorgia Meloni and Common Sense

    What we’re seeing here is a European version of the tactic deployed by the Biden administration against Donald Trump and his supporters. At his speech in Philadelphia earlier this month, President Joe Biden insisted that “Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.” A week earlier, at a speech in Maryland, Biden explained that the problem was “not just Trump, it’s the entire philosophy that underpins the … semi-fascism” of the MAGA agenda.

    But what is that “MAGA” (or, even scarier, “ultra-MAGA”) agenda we’re supposed to recoil from? It’s a commonsense agenda that stresses policies that encourage American prosperity, American security, and American freedom. It’s an agenda that recognizes that borders are borders, that cheap, abundant energy is a prerequisite of economic prosperity, and that the rule of law must be administered impartially if the coercive power of the state is not to descend into tyranny. It also recognizes that the human race is divided into two sexes, and only two, that race is not determinative of character, and that national sovereignty and private property are necessary to the preservation of individual liberty.

    In his great essay “Politics and the English Language,” Orwell noted that the term “fascist” had degenerated into a cognitively empty negative epithet that was little more than a term of abuse. You don’t like something. Therefore it’s “fascist.”

    It’s certainly odd that one has to work overtime to defend Meloni’s assertion of her identity as an Italian, a Christian, a woman, and a mother.
    And our state media has spent the past 3 days assuring us that Meloni IS in fact Mussolini, exactly as Donald Trump WAS Hitler. Everything they tell you is a lie, and if you believe them you are a fool.

    re: those ruptured sea floor pipes.

    Either the Russians did it, thereby proving they can infiltrate undetected the territorial waters of NATO members, and do as they please (and let's forget about the plausibility of Russia sabotaging a key infrastructure they invested so much time and money in).

    Or the Russians didn't, which means someone else did infiltrate undetected (if not conveniently overlooked, or even invited) the territorial waters of a couple of NATO members.

    I think nobody needs help to work out the implications.
    Even the pfenning should have dropped by now.

    Polish member of the European parliament thanks the US for blowing up the pipeline. He also retweeted Biden saying NS2 would be "brought to an end".

    So it's already an open secret, but once the media says 2+2=5, millions will dutifully believe it. I think interpreting the COVID psyop as prep for WWIII population control is starting to make more and more sense.
