Need to Know News (19 January 2023) with Carl Herman and Brian Davidson

Henry Kissinger now has reversed his position and declared that Ukraine should become a member of NATO, opposition to which was one of the principal reasons Vladimir Putin launched his "special military operation" into Ukraine. That does not suggest a reason for peace talks to take place. And Ukrainian soldiers are admitting that they were unprepared for battle at Bakhmut, where Russia forces decisively defeated them. A Capitol Police Tactical Captain has admitted under oath that there were highly trained, violent agents at work ripping down the fencing and barriers to channel peaceful protesters in to the Capitol building in an obviously orchestrated attempt to create the impression of Trump supporters running amok, when the situation was quite the opposite. One of the 50+ signatories among the intel community who claimed the Hunter laptop story appeared to be Russian disinformation admits that most of the contents (even had it been Russian disinformation) would have been true to gain plausibility. Guilty conscience too little, too late. The hosts of The View have gone so far as to suggest Republicans may have set up Joe Biden with the classified documents, claiming that Trump's case was more serious than Bidens. But Biden, as Vice President, did not have the declassification authority of Trump, as President, which means the Biden case is actually overwhelmingly more serious than Trump's--where he even had the docs in a secure facility approved the National Archives, while Biden had them stored in his garage (among other locations). As though anyone cares, John Bolton has announced he will be running for President against Trump in 2024. New records reveal that Fauci lied and children died. The CDC has sought to conceal records of deaths among children since Fauci recommended the vax and the FDA approved it, but the numbers are devastating. And Ivanka has observed that her father was working with Moderna on an mRNA vaccine a week before the first case of COVID was even reported, which causes me personally no end of grief. I believed in him and have supported him in the past through thick and thin. But this looks like the final straw, sad to say. I am in a state of grief. Meanwhile, The Babylon Bee reports other items found in Biden's garage (to conclude on a humorous note).
