 This is massive. Within the past 10 days we came within a hair of being wiped out in a nuclear war. It turns out there was a de-facto coup with the military ordering Biden to stand down on authorising long range missile strikes from Ukraine into Russia. This , by the way, was precisely why Russia went to war with Ukraine, Russia could not allow nukes with a 5 minute flying time to Moscow to be deployed in Ukraine. Especially since the USA already has a first strike nuclear doctrine. Would the USA allow Russian nuclear missiles to be deployed to Mexico ?
