Supreme Court Orders Trump To Crush “Warmth Of Collectivism” With Military Force

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers

A compelling new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting the Ministry of Defense (MoD) provided the United States with evidence proving that a swarm of Ukrainian drones earlier this week was heading for the home of President Putin, says Russia also condemned Western countries for failing to react to the deadly Ukrainian drone strike on a civilian New Year’s Eve celebration in the Kherson Region that killed at least 27 innocent civilians, including a five-year-old child—and was a condemnation joined with the news: “Ukrainian far-right activists have marked the 117th birthday of World War II nationalist leader and Nazi collaborator Stepan Bandera in the city of Lviv in Western Ukraine”.

Among those knowing the grave dangers posed by followers of tyrannical National Socialist German Workers’ Party ideology, that’s more commonly known as the Nazi Party, this report notes, is top President Donald Trump advisor Elon Musk, who vowed to bankroll Republican candidates in the midterm elections later this year and gravely warned: “America is toast if the radical left wins”.

Exactly echoing despotic Nazi Party socialist ideology, this report continues, yesterday it saw Democrat Party radical socialist Zohran Mamdani proclaiming as he was sworn in as the new mayor of New York City: “We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism”—a socialist proclamation joined by powerful American-Israeli tech mogul Shlomo Kramer issuing the Orwellian declaration: “I know it’s difficult to hear, but it’s time to limit the First Amendment in order to protect it”.

While the “warmth of collectivism” targets the First Amendment for total destruction, this report details, President Trump posted the announcement on New Year’s Eve: “We are removing the National Guard from Chicago, Los Angeles, and Portland, despite the fact that CRIME has been greatly reduced by having these great Patriots in those cities, and ONLY by that fact…Portland, Los Angeles, and Chicago were GONE if it weren’t for the Federal Government stepping in…We will come back, perhaps in a much different and stronger form, when crime begins to soar again – Only a question of time!…It is hard to believe that these Democrat Mayors and Governors, all of whom are greatly incompetent, would want us to leave, especially considering the great progress that has been made???”.

Causing President Trump to announce the withdrawal of National Guard forces, this report notes, was a Supreme Court decision, wherein the Trump Administration argued that National Guard forces were like civilian law-enforcement officers and told the court: “There is a strong tradition in this country of favoring the use of the militia rather than the standing military to quell domestic disturbances”.

The Supreme Court, however, this report concludes, didn’t buy the Trump Administration argument, instead ruling that when Congress passed the law on which President Trump is relying on to deploy National Guard forces, lawmakers “understood” the regular forces to refer specifically to the full-time personnel of the United States military—a Supreme Court ruling that effectively ordered President Trump must deploy the United States military instead of National Guard forces, which caused world-renowned American constitutional legal scholar Professor John Yoo to observe: “The unintended consequence here might be President Trump has to call the 82nd Airborne, or the Marines, or the 101st Airborne Division, like President Eisenhower did after Brown v Board”.

2026 Begins With Ukrainian Massacre And American Piracy Moving Towards Total War

2026 Begins With Ukrainian Massacre And American Piracy Moving Towards Total War

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers

A forewarning new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting Ukrainian drones targeted Moscow during the New Year address given by President Putin, says this terrorist attack was joined by the horrific news: “At least 24 people were killed and more than 50 injured in a Ukrainian drone strike on a café and a hotel during New Year’s Eve celebrations in the Black Sea coastal village of Khorly…The attack took place shortly before midnight after a reconnaissance drone surveyed the area…A child was among those killed and medics are currently fighting for the lives of the wounded”—was a Ukrainian massacre of innocent civilians far from the front lines about which was grimly revealed: “Three UAVs, one of which carried an incendiary mixture, hit the crowded venue, triggering a massive blaze…Graphic photos from the scene showed total destruction and the subsequent fire, with heavily burnt bodies scattered throughout the rubble”—and Vice Speaker Konstantin Kosachev of the Federation Council raged on behalf of all Russian peoples: “This is a monstrous crime…Any attacks on civilian targets are a war crime…But this strike was committed with special cynicism – carried out practically as clocks struck 12 on New Year’s Eve, with colossal losses…I hope the world will finally shudder and realize we are dealing with a criminal terrorist regime”.

As to if the socialist Western colonial world will finally shudder after the monstrous Ukrainian massacre of innocent Russian civilians celebrating the New Year, this report notes, it remains doubtful, as none of them reacted after President Donald Trump ordered a “total blockade” of oil tankers coming in or out of Venezuela a fortnight ago—the Americans then began piracy actions seizing oil tankers, but the Bella 1 oil tanker refused to be seized, and it was revealed today: “According to the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping, the vessel, previously known as the Bella 1, is now registered as the Marinera…The database lists the vessel as flying the Russian flag, with a home port of Sochi…Under international law, ships flying a country’s flag are under that nation’s protection”.

Along with the United States assured of war if it attempts to seize any Russian-flagged ship, this report continues, the world’s oldest continuously running shipping journal Lloyd’s List just revealed: “The Chinese-flagged very large crude carrier Thousand Sunny will arrive near Venezuela in mid-January on its present course…Another Chinese-flagged very large crude carrier, Xing Ye, is waiting to load in Venezuela and is slow steaming off French Guiana”—a revelation joined by the Chinese Foreign Ministry declaring: “China has always stood in solidarity through thick and thin with the Global South, including Latin America and the Caribbean”

As the Great Powers maneuvered against each other in the lead up to World War II, this report concludes, world-renowned British author, literary scholar and Christian theologian C. S. Lewis, best known as the author of The Chronicles of Narnia, assessed based on the Biblical principals he strictly adhered to: “Total war is the most humane in the long run”—an assessment followed by world-renowned American military scholar Edward Luttwak, who assessed in 2000: “If peace cannot be achieved by diplomacy it may yet be achieved by war—that being admittedly only a lesser peace of separation, rather than a full peace of reconciliation…War destroys itself by consuming the resources, willpower and hopes needed to keep fighting…Unless one side annihilates the other—a very rare event in history—leaders and nations eventually accept the compromises necessary for peace…War can therefore bring about peace, by a process of exhaustion—with or without negotiations, agreements, or treaties to formalize the outcome”.

Russia Warns Zelensky’s Life Is Now Worthless After Attack To Kill Putin Fails

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers

A foreboding new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting President Donald Trump announced on Sunday, prior to his meeting with unelected Ukrainian Dictator Vladimir Zelensky, that he had spoken to President Putin, says he also announced he would call President Putin back after his meeting with Zelensky ended—and as for what occurred while President Putin was waiting for President Trump to call him back, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov beyond shockingly revealed: “On the night of 28-29 December, the Kiev regime launched a terrorist attack, using 91 long-range strike unmanned aerial vehicles on the state residence of the President of the Russian Federation in the Novgorod Region…The failed attack on the President’s residence came at a time when Russian and American representatives were engaged in intensive negotiations…While Moscow will not withdraw from the US-mediated talks aimed at settling the Ukraine conflict, Russia’s negotiating position will be revised in light of Ukraine’s reckless actions…Targets for retaliatory strikes and the time for their implementation by the Russian Armed Forces have been determined”.

As for whom has the intelligence capability to intercept calls to pinpoint locations of world leaders targeted for death, this report notes, world-renowned retired CIA analyst Larry Johnson assessed about the failed attack to kill President Putin: “It’s possible that British intelligence could have done this without consulting the Americans”—an assessment joined by Media for Justice founding member Gillian Schutte most factually observing: “British intelligence fits the profile of an actor capable of operating at this level…Britain has a long record of intervening when negotiated outcomes threaten to reduce its strategic relevance…This pattern recurs in conflicts where London lacks decisive material power yet retains strong intelligence capacity and influence over narrative terrain”.

After Dictator Zelensky denied having anything to do with the attack on the home of President Putin captured by every NATO radar system, this report continues, President Trump told reporters: “I don’t like it…It’s not good…I learned about it from President Putin today…I was very angry about it…Thank God, we did not give the Tomahawks to Kiev…It’s a delicate period of time…This is not the right time…It’s one thing to be offensive, because they’re offensive…It’s another thing to attack his house…It’s not the right time to do any of that”.

In response to the vile attack on the life of President Putin, this report concludes, top Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declared: “The attempted assault was an act of terrorism aimed at derailing the negotiations, and not just President Putin personally…This was directed against Trump, against President Trump’s efforts to facilitate a peaceful resolution of the Ukraine conflict”—Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova then warned about the inevitable retaliation: “The answers will not be diplomatic…Let them not get their hopes up…The unprecedented nature of this attack lies in the fact that it was carried out during the negotiations in the United States…At the very moment, when plans are being discussed, this, excuse me, bloody, rabid, terrorist scum, is undermining peace efforts”—and Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev proclaimed about the assured fate of Dictator Zelensky: “The stinking bastard in Kiev is trying to derail the settlement of the conflict…He wants war…Well, now at least he’ll have to stay in hiding for the rest of his worthless life”.

This Is What Keeps Meloni Up At Night

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers

A weighty new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting unelected Ukrainian Dictator Vladimir Zelensky was not met by representatives of the American side when he landed at the Miami airport yesterday, says at near the exact moment he left his plane, President Donald Trump posted the announcement: “I just had a good and very productive telephone call with President Putin of Russia prior to my meeting, at 1:00 P.M. today, with President Zelenskyy of Ukraine…The meeting will take place in the main dining room of Mar-a-Lago…Press is invited…Thank you for your attention to this matter!”.

Following President Trump announcing his call with President Putin, this report notes, top Kremlin foreign policy aide Yury Ushakov revealed: “The two presidents held a friendly, well-wishing and businesslike conversation for an hour and 15 minutes, during which they expressed mutual interest in reaching a lasting peaceful settlement in the Ukraine conflict…Putin stressed the need to rely on the understandings reached between the presidents at the summit in Anchorage earlier this year…Both leaders agreed that a temporary ceasefire as proposed by Ukraine and its European backers would only prolong the conflict and risk a resumption of hostilities…Putin agreed to a proposal from Trump to continue the settlement process by forming two working groups to tackle security and economic issues”.

After viewing how President Putin and President Trump overturned the old global order during the past year, this report concludes, American geopolitical strategist Gerry Nolan, in his just released policy document “Europe’s Panic Economy: Frozen Assets, Empty Arsenals, And The Quiet Admission of Defeat”, warningly observed:

When a prime minister tells her own staff to rest because next year will be much worse, it is not gallows humor. 

It is not exhaustion speaking.  It is a slip of the mask, the kind of remark leaders make only when the internal forecasts no longer align with the public script.

Giorgia Meloni was not addressing voters.  She was addressing the state itself — the bureaucratic core tasked with executing decisions whose consequences can no longer be disguised. Her words were not about a mundane increased workload.  They were about constraint.  About limits.  About a Europe that has crossed from crisis management into managed decline, and knows that 2026 is when the accumulated costs finally collide.

What Meloni let slip is what Europe’s elites already understand: the Western project in Ukraine has run head-first into material reality. 

Not Russian propaganda.  Not disinformation.  Not populism.  Steel, munitions, energy, labor, and time.  And once material reality asserts itself, legitimacy begins to drain.

The War Europe Cannot Supply

Europe can posture for war.  It cannot produce for war.

Four years into a high-intensity war of attrition, the United States and Europe are confronting a truth they spent decades unlearning: you do not sustain this kind of conflict with theatrical speeches, sanctions, or abandoning diplomacy.

You sustain it with shells, missiles, trained crews, repair cycles, and production rates that exceed losses — month after month, without interruption.

By 2025, the gap is no longer theoretical.

Russia is now producing artillery ammunition at a scale that Western officials themselves concede outpaces the combined output of NATO. Russian industry has shifted to continuous near-wartime production (without even being fully mobilized), with centralized procurement, simplified supply chains, and state-directed throughput.  Estimates place annual Russian artillery production at several million rounds — production already flowing, not promised.

Europe, by contrast, has spent 2025 celebrating targets it cannot ever materially meet.  The European Union’s flagship pledge remains two million shells per year — a goal dependent on new facilities, new contracts, and new labor that will not fully materialize within the decisive window of the war, if ever.  Even the dreamed target if reached, would not put it at parity with Russian output.

The United States, after emergency expansion, is projecting roughly one million shells annually once and a big if, full ramp-up is achieved.  Even combined on paper, Western production struggles to match Russian output already delivered.  Talk about paper tiger.

This is not a gap. It is a major tempo mismatch.  Russia is producing at scale now.  Europe is dreaming of rebuilding the ability to produce at scale later.

And time is the one variable that cannot be sanctioned.

Nor can the United States simply compensate for Europe’s hollowed-out capacity.  Washington faces its own industrial choke points.  Production of Patriot air-defense interceptors runs in the low hundreds per year while demand now spans Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and US stockpile replenishment simultaneously — a mismatch senior Pentagon officials have acknowledged cannot be resolved quickly, if ever.

US naval shipbuilding tells the same story: submarine and surface-combatant programs are years behind schedule, constrained by labor shortages, aging yards, and cost overruns that push meaningful expansion into the 2030s.

The assumption that America can industrially backstop Europe no longer matches reality.  This is not a European problem alone; it is a Western one.

War Footing Without Factories

European leaders speak of “war footing” as if it were a political posture.  In reality, it is an industrial condition and Europe does not meet it.

New artillery production lines require years to reach stable throughput.  Air-defense interceptor manufacturing runs in long cycles measured in batches, not surges.  Even basic inputs such as explosives remain bottlenecks, with facilities shuttered decades ago only now being reopened, some not expected to reach capacity until the late 2020s.

That date alone is an admission.

Russia, meanwhile, is already operating inside wartime tempo. Its defense sector has delivered thousands of armored vehicles, hundreds of aircraft and helicopters, and vast quantities of drones annually.

Europe’s problem is not conceptual; it is institutional.

Germany’s much-vaunted Zeitenwende exposed this brutally.  Tens of billions were authorized, but procurement bottlenecks, fragmented contracting, and an atrophied supplier base meant delivery lagged years behind rhetoric.

France, often cited as Europe’s most capable arms producer, can manufacture more sophisticated systems — but only in boutique quantities, measured in dozens where attritional war demands thousands.

Even the EU’s own ammunition acceleration initiatives expanded capacity on paper while the front consumed shells in weeks.  These are not ideological failures.  They are administrative and industrial ones and they compound under pressure.

The difference is structural.  Western industry was optimized for shareholder efficiency and peacetime margins.  Russia’s has been reorganized for endurance under pressure.

NATO announces packages.  Russia counts deliveries.

The €210 Billion Fantasy

This industrial reality explains why the frozen-assets saga mattered so much, and why it failed.

Europe’s leadership did not pursue the seizure of Russian sovereign assets out of legal creativity or moral clarity.  It pursued it because it needed time.  Time to avoid admitting that the war could not be sustained on Western industrial terms.  Time to substitute finance for production.

When the attempt to seize roughly €210 billion in Russian assets collapsed on December 20th, blocked by legal risk, market consequences, and resistance led by Belgium, with Italy, Malta, Slovakia and Hungary, aligned against outright confiscation,

Europe settled for a degraded substitute: a €90 billion loan to Ukraine for 2026–27, serviced by 3B in annual interest, further mortgaging Europe’s future.

This was not strategy. It was triage, and further divided, an already weakened Union.

Outright confiscation would have detonated Europe’s credibility as a financial custodian.  Permanent immobilization avoids the blast — but creates a slow bleed.  The assets remain frozen indefinitely, a standing act of economic warfare that signals to the world that reserves held in Europe are conditional and not worth the risk.

Europe chose reputational erosion over legal rupture.  That choice reveals fear, not strength.

Ukraine as a Balance-Sheet War

The deeper truth is that Ukraine is no longer primarily a battlefield problem.  It is a solvency problem.  Washington understands this.  The United States can absorb embarrassment.  It cannot absorb open-ended liabilities indefinitely.  An offramp is being sought — quietly, unevenly, and with rhetorical cover.

Europe cannot admit it needs one.  Europe framed the war as existential, civilizational, moral.  It declared compromise appeasement and negotiation surrender.  In doing so, it erased its own exit ramps.

Now the costs land where no narrative can deflect them: on European budgets, European energy bills, European industry, and European political cohesion.

The €90 billion loan is not solidarity. It is securitization of decline — rolling obligations forward while the productive base required to justify them continues to erode.

Meloni knows this.  That is why her tone was not defiant, but weary.

Censorship as Panic Management

As material limits harden, narrative control tightens.

The aggressive enforcement of the EU’s Digital Services Act is not about safety.  It is about containment, in its most Orwellian form — constructing an information perimeter around an elite consensus that can no longer withstand open accounting.

When citizens begin asking calmly, and then not calmly, relentlessly, what was this for?, the illusion of legitimacy collapses quickly.

This is why regulatory pressure now reaches beyond Europe’s borders, provoking transatlantic friction over jurisdiction and speech. 

Confident systems do not fear conversation.  Fragile ones do.Censorship here is not ideology. It is insurance.

Deindustrialization: The Unspoken Betrayal

Europe did not merely sanction Russia.  It sanctioned its own industrial model.

By 2025, European industry continues to pay energy costs far above those of competitors in the United States or Russia.  Germany. the engine, has seen sustained contraction in energy-intensive manufacturing.  Chemical, steel, fertilizer, and glass production have either shut down or relocated.  Small and medium enterprises across Italy and Central Europe are failing quietly, without headlines.

This is why Europe cannot scale ammunition the way it needs to.  This is why rearmament remains a promise rather than a condition.  Cheap energy was not a luxury.  It was the foundation.  Remove it via self-sabotage (Nordstream et. al), and the structure hollows out.

China, watching all of this, holds the other half of Europe’s nightmare.  It commands the deepest manufacturing base on earth without having entered wartime footing.  Russia does not need China’s breadth, only its strategic depth behind it in reserve.  Europe has neither.

What Meloni Actually Fears

Not hard work.  Not busy schedules.  She fears a 2026 in which Europe’s elites lose control of three things at once.

Money — as Ukraine’s funding becomes an EU balance-sheet problem, replacing the fantasy that “Russia will pay”.

Narrative — as censorship tightens and still fails to suppress the question echoing across the continent: what was this all for?

Alliance discipline — as Washington maneuvers for exit while Europe absorbs the cost, the risk, and the humiliation.

That is the panic.  Not losing the war overnight, but losing legitimacy slowly, as reality leaks out through energy bills, shuttered factories, empty arsenals, and mortgaged futures.

Humanity at the Abyss

This is not just Europe’s crisis.  It is civilizational.

A system that cannot produce, cannot replenish, cannot tell the truth, and cannot retreat without collapsing credibility has reached its limits.  When leaders begin preparing their own institutions for worse years ahead, they are not forecasting inconvenience.  They are conceding structure.

Meloni’s remark mattered because it pierced the performance.  Empires announce triumph loudly.  Systems in decline lower expectations quietly, or loudly in Meloni’s case.

Europe’s leadership is lowering expectations now because it knows what the warehouses contain, what the factories cannot yet deliver, what the debt curves look like — and what the public has already begun to understand.

For most Europeans, this reckoning will not arrive as an abstract debate about strategy or supply chains.  It will arrive as a far simpler realization: this was never a war they consented to. It was not fought to defend their homes, their prosperity, or their future.  It was fought for greed for Empire, and paid for with their living standards, their industry, and their children’s future.

They were told it was existential.  They were told there was no alternative.  They were told sacrifice was virtue.

Yet what Europeans want is not endless mobilization or permanent austerity.  They want peace.  They want stability.  They want the quiet dignity of prosperity — affordable energy, functioning industry, and a future that is not mortgaged to conflicts they did not consent to.

And when that truth settles when the fear recedes and the spell breaks, the question Europeans will ask will not be technical, ideological, or rhetorical.

It will be human.  Why were we forced to sacrifice everything for a war we never agreed to and told there was no peace worth pursuing?

And this is what keeps Meloni up at night.
