Can India Become a Global Powerhouse?

MK Bhadrakumar, Alexander Mercouris & Glenn Diesen
Glenn Diesen | March 6, 2025

We had the pleasure of speaking with Ambassador Bhadrakumar about India’s status as a great power. As the world has become multipolar, India will undoubtedly be an important centre of power. Yet, Ambassador Bhadrakumar is sceptical about India’s ability to assert itself on the international stage in terms of both capabilities and intentions. While India has been a source for peace as a non-aligned power that mitigated bloc politics, its neutral position often results in the inability to take a clear position on critical issues.

Europe’s Growing Irrelevance: Speaking with the Former Foreign Minister of Austria

Karin Kneissl, Alexander Mercouris & Glenn Diesen
Glenn Diesen | March 3, 2025

I had the great pleasure of speaking with Karin Kneissl and Alexander Mercouris about Europe’s decline and tendency to double down on failed policies. Kneissl is the former Foreign Minister of Austria. We discussed why NATO’s defeat in the Ukraine proxy war will fragment the alliance, why the Europeans are no longer capable of engaging in diplomacy with Russia, how strategic thinking was replaced with ideological slogans, why unity and democracy within the EU is weakening, and why the economic decline will be difficult to reverse. Removing the dividing lines in Europe and restoring peace with Russia, as the largest state in Europe, would be an important part of reversing Europe’s growing irrelevance. However, the Europeans appear to be preparing for a showdown against Russia instead.

Putin’s Endgame in Ukraine

Prof. Glenn Diesen with Judge Napolitano
Glenn Diesen | March 3, 2025

I had the great pleasure to discuss with Judge Napolitano the efforts by Trump to pressure Zelensky into starting negotiations to end the war. Trump is challenging the legitimacy of Zelensky and even cutting military support to push him to the negotiation table. It is very possible that Trump will also start to mount pressure on the Europeans as they are seen to also oppose his peace plan. By cutting military spending, Trump hopes to also deprive Zelensky and the Europeans of the alternative to keep the war going. The war summit in Paris organised by the Europeans demonstrates that they are not able to mobilise the political will and unity required to replace the US. The Europeans also do not have the money or military power to continue the war, yet they do not have the political imagination beyond doubling down on a failed war. If the Europeans continue to resist Trump’s peace efforts, then NATO itself could end up being dissolved.

War and Peace in Ukraine

John Mearsheimer, Glenn Diesen & Pavel Shchelin with Diana Panchenko
Glenn Diesen | February 27, 2025

I had the great pleasure to participate in a discussion on a Ukrainian political program on the topic of “War and Peace”. Why did the war start, and how can it end? The war began as a result of the Western-backed coup in 2014 that stripped Ukraine of its neutrality, and peace will unavoidably depend on restoring Ukraine’s neutrality. A humiliating peace entails no NATO membership, painful territorial concessions, and no security guarantees – although this is also the best possible option.

The Holy Quadripartitus of Piffle is Exploding

Reviewing the Four Pillars of the Biden years

By John Leake | FOCAL POINTS | February 26, 2025

Back in September 2023, I posted a report about an American transgendered woman named Sarah Ashton-Cirillo who claimed to be a soldier and an official spokesman of the Ukrainian Territorial Defense Forces. She was in the news because of a publicized spat she had with then Senator JD Vance of Ohio, who has made an inquiry to determine is Sarah Ashton-Cirillo really is an official English language spokesman for the Ukrainian TDF. She really was.

Vance became aware of Ashton-Cirillo after he saw a video of the spokesman announcing that journalists who disseminate Russian propaganda will be hunted down and killed. In this video, she proclaims:

Next week, the teeth of the Russian devils will gnash ever harder, and their rabid mouths will foam in uncontrollable frenzy as the world will see a favorite Kremlin propagandist pay for their crimes. This puppet of Putin is only the first. Russia’s war criminal propagandists will all be hunted down and justice will be served.

In response to Senator Vance’s query, Ashton-Cirillo posted yet another video in which she proclaimed her support of the First Amendment, but hastened to add that reporting Russian propaganda was not protected by the First Amendment.

Back then I posed the question: Who adjudicates what is Russian propaganda and what is merely critical reporting of the Ukrainian government and its U.S. government supporters?

The question touched on something I have frequently written about on this Substack—namely, the strange rise of ORTHODOXY in recent years.

There are, we are told, certain major issues in which Orthodox—that is, official U.S. government and MSM representations—cannot be questioned or criticized. Those who do question these orthodoxies will be censored, censured, or—if Ashton-Cirillo has her way—hunted down and killed.

The top four orthodoxies back in 2023 were what I called the Holy Quadripartitus of Piffle. They were:

1). COVID-19 vaccines are saving mankind. Anyone who questions the safety and efficacy of the vaccines is guilty of heresy.

2). The U.S. proxy war in Ukraine is a sacred mission and no negotiated settlement with Russia shall be countenanced. Anyone who criticizes the Ukrainian and U.S. governments, and any attempt to understand the war from the Russian point of view, is guilty of heresy.

3). Human induced climate change will soon destroy the earth if trillions aren’t spent to overhaul our entire energy policy. Anyone who questions this proposition is guilty of heresy.

4). The concept of biological sex is a mere “construct.” Skilled surgeons and endocrinologists can transform a boy into a girl or vice versa. Anyone who questions this assertion is guilty of heresy.

As I noted back then, the Holy Quadripartitus of Piffle was an orthodoxy of fanatical, obscurantist insanity. I am pleased to report that, less than two years later, it appears that the doctrine is exploding.

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs: The EU in Panic as Peace May Break Out

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs with Prof. Glenn Diesen
Glenn Diesen | February 26, 2025

I spoke with Professor Jeffrey Sachs after his speech at the European Parliament. How did we end up in a position where the EU has become the leading actor to oppose diplomacy and negotiations, and instead aims to prolong a war that devastates Europe and cannot be won? How did the Europeans reach a consensus on absurd notions such as Russia should not have a say in where NATO expands, and that the Europeans cannot sit down and talk to Russia without Ukraine? Professor Sachs attended the Istanbul negotiations in early 2022, but why are these negotiations now largely absent in the EU’s war narrative?

Miscalculation: An Autopsy of NATO’s Failed Strategy for a Long War

Prof. Glenn Diesen
Glenn Diesen | February 18, 2025

To preserve the international system based on US hegemony, the US has to prevent the rise of other centres of power. The China-Russia partnership has become the key challenge to US hegemony. The strategy by the Biden administration was to use Ukraine in a proxy war against Russia to knock it out from the ranks of great powers, so the US could focus on China. As NATO lost the proxy war, the US began shifting toward a new strategy of winning Russia over to its side of the ledger and creating some divisions between Russia and China.

Candace Owens: There’s Much More Hidden Behind the ‘Brigitte’ Story

Becoming Brigitte: The Epilogue
Europe Reloaded | February 23, 2025

This is the final installment where Candace Owens wraps up her examination of the evidence and research around ‘Brigitte’s’ identity. A new figure is introduced in this episode, that of Macron’s maternal uncle, one Jean-Michel NOGUES, an important figure in the young Emmanuel’s life but of whom there is not a single photo. Notice how many ‘Jeans-…’ or ‘Jean-Michels’ there are in this story. Owens addresses that. We provide notes to the video below.

********

NOTES

All of these players in the Brigitte story could, in fact, have multiple identities.

Today Owens looks at one side of the family, the Trogneux of Amiens, Brigitte’s family.

It’s noticeable that almost all men in the family have the same first name, ‘Jean’. They’ve added other names and created a particular name brand. And the women have male middle names and generally longer name strings, as you’d find with elite families. Is there an intent to confuse here, with people within one family having such similar names?

Owens examines a family photo produced by known press fraud,Mimi Marchand. The image of Monique Trogneux‘s hand to the right of the photo looks very odd and misshapen. Monique Trogneux would marry a local billionaire yet no other photos are available of her. Xavier Poussard has noted that nothing about this story makes much sense.

Owens asks, are these families related? Is Emmanuel Macron actually Brigitte’s (male) biological son? The secret here seems to be far bigger than having a transgender wife. Why does it feel that Macron has had his hand held by people throughout his life, including David de Rothschild, a family known by their own admission to practice incest. ‘Vice is nice but incest is best because it stays in the family’, which is a direct quote from David de Rothschild’s cousin on French TV.

The book ‘The Women of the Rothschild’ by Natalie Livingston says that incest was practiced until it was no longer socially acceptable (note Meyer Amschel’s quote). Which obviously raises the question of mental fitness among family members.

So why did David de Rothschild pick up Macron and fast-track him into the banking business? How did the Rothschilds get so close to family of doctors and of chocolatiers?

We know of Jean-Michel Macron, Emmanuel’s father, but nothing of Jean-Michel NOGUES, an uncle on his mother’s side who died in 2006.

Macron chose to get baptized at the age of 12 with this uncle as godfather. He was a prominent doctor in the area, highly networked through a real estate company, bringing together medical professional organizations. No photo of him exists publicly; the medical faculty in Amiens refuse to show what they have in their records. Why was this important uncle not mentioned in Macron’s autobiography? It is yet another odd and important question that surrounds this family.

The One Claimed to be Jean-Michael Trogneux Today

A photo of this aging, corpulent man was produced, and alleged to be the original JMT by the Macrons. He’s still alive but we have no idea what he has done in his life. Facial recognition software says that this man is not JMT in fact. Also, photos of Macron’s investiture lunch show that this man was not present among the family members, nor does video footage at the investiture show this. And in another investiture video clip, Brigitte is seen to ignore him. However, the one claimed to be JMT is standing with David de Rothschild.

These questions cannot be answered satisfactorily, but people are digging. Questions we are left with:

  1. What does Macron’s uncle, Jean-Michel NOGUES, look like?
  2. What happened to the original Brigitte TROGNEUX?
  3. The contents of a military file in Algeria on JMT have not yet been released.

Owens makes an appeal to the audience for more information.

At any rate, she believes, we seem to be looking at a case of incest.

Canada arrests prominent activist, author over pro-Palestinian stance

Press TV – February 21, 2025

Police in Canada have arrested a Canadian activist and author for criticizing Israel and its genocidal war against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

Yves Engler, a vocal critic of Israel and the Canadian military complex, was arrested on Thursday after Dahlia Kurtz, a Zionist influencer, accused him of harassment.

“Tomorrow the Montreal police will arrest me for posting to social media against Israel’s genocide in Gaza,” Engler said in an article on Wednesday after Montreal Police reached out to him about their plans to arrest him because of Kurtz’s complaint.

Pointing out that he had “responded to Kurtz’s racist, violent, anti-Palestinian posts on X”, Engler said he had not harassed the influencer, who “supports killing Palestinian children” and “openly calls for state violence against those challenging Canadian complicity in genocide.”

“I’ve never met Kurtz. Nor have I messaged or emailed her. Nor have I threatened her. I don’t even follow her on X (Twitter’s algorithm puts her posts in my feed).”

The father of two was taken into custody on Thursday morning and appeared before a judge later in the day. He spent the night in jail, and a bail hearing has been set for Friday.

After he publicized his scheduled arrest, police pledged new charges of “harassing” police and “obstructing” their work against Engler… Full article
