Need to Know News (21 June 2022) with Joe Olson and Russ Winter

The Ukrainian intrusion and related sanctions--coupled with a compressor needed to keep 167 million cubic meters of gas flowing to Europe, which remains in Canada (due to the sanctions) and has cut the transmission to 100 million cubic meters instead--has brought home the folly of "green energy" as an alternative to gas and oil. That Germany has shut down its nuclear power plants appears to have been shortsighted in the extreme--and now the EU is having to scramble to keep warm this winter. Americans are so lacking in interest with regard to the J6 hearings that NBC even cut away to golf instead, where the networks are falling more than 50% off viewership for normal programming--which makes this a ratings disaster. Even CNN has gone after Adam Schiff for not featuring Trump defenders during its non-stop PR campaign, which is meant to pave the way to the November midterm elections (but it failing to generate interest among any but die-hard leftists who are bona fide Trump haters). Black voters, who benefited under Trump, long for his return;' and when. Washington goes for the guns, they leap off the shelves in buying sprees that are not about to subside. The party of "Defunding the Police" will not fare well, if the elections are held as scheduled. So we may anticipate a gigantic effort to derail them, one way or another. The inflation consuming the nation was a predictable consequence of the massive spending bill, $1.9 trillion, to save America during the pandemic; but it appears to be sacrificing America, instead. The catastrophic effects of the vax continue to grow and the worst (by far) is yet to come.
