Also it’s important to not make the mistake of describing blatant US stooges like Ursula Von der Liar, as “technocrats”.

That term is used to describe people with actual professional-technical qualifications, who would actually take decisions based on analysis, but perhaps lack emotional context or empathy.

Which is different from being a corrupt failed German political figure with no professional or educational credibility, placed at the top of the EU as a stooge.

Those are tro totally different things.

And the problem with the EU in Brussels is it’s stuffed with pure stooges. Not technocrats. The U.S. even recently attempted to have an American stuffed in there as competition commissioner - to gut all protections against the excesses of big U.S. corporations- but that was too blatant and it failed.

“Uncontrolled migration” is a myth. Try crossing any border in the world and you find that out very quickly. Nor is being a refugee a picnic or uncontrolled movement.

As for the hordes of Ukrainians flooding into Europe, that movement is carefully controlled. You get free entry into any European country for being “white” enough, even if you are from a country known to be lawless, mafia-ridden, culturally corrupt and riddled with Nazi sympathy.

Try showing up at the European border with brown skin and socialist or communist beliefs and those borders wide open to Ukrainians are closed to you.

But here it’s not merely the EU executive clerks who are at fault. The acceptance of these Ukrainians who don’t actually share European- espoused liberal democratic values is wide open in the European population. Because racism is a deep problem in Europe.

Already I have noted in Norway and the UK there are candidates for parliamentary office and active political party people who are not only from this new flood of Ukrainians but also seem to have ties to the U.S. Draw your own conclusions about what is happening to European local politics from here on out….
