It is a time for us to lean on each other and support each other the sentiment expressed by Ammon Bundy this week saying:



"....I don't think there's ever been a time in our lifetime anyway where there's more need for us to unite to be united on important matters to be supporting each other to be bringing truth to each other and protection for each other...."



In face of all the government restrictions Bundy bringing together people for a meeting in Emmett, Idaho Thursday night saying in part:




"It doesn't really matter what numbers there are when it comes to the coronavirus.  It really doesn't matter if it's real or not, if it's rampant or not, whether it's a pandemic or not.   Because it does not give government officials the right to infringe upon our rights.   And that's what matters."

NEWSDUMP UPDATE:  RUSSIAN POLICE KILL ISLAMIC STATE SUPPORTER IN RAID



Authorities in Russia say they killed an Islamic State supporter in the northern city of Murmansk who was planning to carry out a terrorist attack.



TASS NEWS REPORT



The FBI could have written that press release.     If Saul Alinsky were alive today he would be an FBI agent.    The Russian prophet warned the West about how Marx and Lenin were rotting the inside of our society while outwardly it looked like we were OK in relation to the Communist tyranny of the Cold War.


But what about the US relationship with modern Russia.    Its been very tense and intense and business interests that buy our politicians in the USA very deeply involved in the hostility to Russia.


One word says it all:


OIL



NEWS UPDATE:  SAUDIS HIT RUSSIANS OVER OIL PRICE COLLAPSE AS TALKS ARE SET FOR MONDAY



The sparing already underway ahead of the OPEC+ nations video conference Monday.     It was a month ago when the nations met in person in Vienna that Russia followed by Saudi Arabia opted to pull out of limits on oil production moving prices from 47 dollars a barrel way down to less than half of that at some points recently.


The Saudis hit Russia for "passing the buck" to them over the oil market situation.   The US appointing a special "energy ambassador" Victoria Coates to deal directly with Saudi Arabia and now the Saudis seem to be echoing the US line of attack against Russia over oil.



ASSOCIATED PRESS STORY PUBLISHED BY ABC NEWS




RUSSIA IS THE ENEMY BECAUSE RUSSIA PRODUCES ENERGY COMPETING WITH THE UNITED STATES AND SAUDI ARABIA WHERE THE US HAS INVESTMENTS IN ENERGY



The Consumer Energy Alliance met in Pittsburgh in September of 2018.   A lobbying group for America's energy producers as in the fracking industry for instance.


Then Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke brought up the notion of a naval blockade to prevent any Russian controlled energy in the Middle East from being exported.



Read it for yourself as published by the "Washington Examiner":



NAVAL BLOCKADE IS AN OPTION FOR DEALING WITH RUSSIA-WASHINGTON EXAMINER



That's Middle East oil and it reminds us that President Trump has stated that the US military in northeastern Syria is needed to watch the oil fields and that is one reason they are there according to him.   In the same neighborhood Russian special forces, air forces, naval forces and military police.  Its Russia's support for the Assad government in Syria.


Back onto the US squeezing of Russia sanctions are a method to apply pressure on adversaries like North Korea and Iran and Syria and Russia, too.


And sure enough US sanctions against Russia's attempt to build the Nord Stream 2 natural gas pipeline to Germany to bring Russian natural gas more directly into the European market were approved right before Christmas.



NORD STREAM 2: TRUMP APPROVES SANCTIONS ON RUSSIA GAS PIPELINE-BBC



Russia right now is sending a pipeline laying ship all the way around the world from its own Far East to complete the Nord Stream 2 now that a Swiss company was "sanctioned" out of the construction.


The US is claiming Russia can't finish Nord Stream 2 while Russia expresses confidence it can.



US SAYS SANCTIONS MEAN RUSSIA CAN'T FINISH NORD STREAM 2 PIPELINE



Within weeks of that story being published in February, Russia made its move last month in Vienna opting to break away from production limits and lowering oil prices to the point where the US shale energy (fracking) industry is unable to operate profitably.


It looks like payback is happening for all this rage against Russia with sanctions and so on based on business interests in the USA buying our political system to wipe out competition.


Trouble in the energy industry as reflected in one company "leading the way" in a bankruptcy filing...






I think you can blame Russia for this but don't forget it was US political and business interests that drove them to do it.    At least it isn't a direct Pearl Harbor act of war which was Japan's reaction to sanctions in 1941.




PUTIN ON THE RITZ VIDEO



A website that publishes some pretty fiery commentary against the USA claims that Putin and Trump are talking the end of the US energy industry as it puts the big picture into context.   I don't know if I agree with this spin but I give it to you to read......




MOON OF ALABAMA-TRUMP PUTIN WILL DISCUSS THE END OF US SHALE OIL



President Trump bluffed (LIED) the price of oil upwards a bit this week claiming direct Saudi-Russian talks even tweeting that Putin had talked directly with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman but two days in a row the Kremlin denied those talks took place.


Now the talks of the OPEC+ nations as a group are set for Monday but the Saudis and Russians are not seeing eye to eye and as long as Russia pumps the extra oil the US shale oil industry will bleed the extra blood so to speak.


President Trump blustering and bluffing with talk of tariffs at his coronavirus briefing tonight aimed at foreign oil to protect the US oil industry....NEWS STORY-BERNAMA- MALAYSIA

"THE YEAR THAT CLAYTON DELANEY DIED"-TOM T. HALL




Well a song that reminds me of my youth and the alcoholic characters that helped promote my "drinking".  "The Year That Clayton Delaney Died" by Tom T. Hall a song I fondly remember from 1971.


I'm a drunk and I'm currently sober but my story includes lying and stealin as in not paying bills and so on.



With that in mind I have to avoid getting all whooped up angry about the lying going on all around us in the name of fighting the coronavirus and or saving the economy coming from little people all the way up to the President of the United States.



I should also mention that there's stealing going on with the trillions being poured into the bailouts that will come out of my pocket and the pockets of future generations in the years ahead.   I will have to send the message again and again as I often do by not voting for quite a few Republicans in the elections to send my message.     Will we have any in the future?



Well the video some one hour and 43 minutes or so long tonight President Trump saying "we will soon prevail together" at the beginning......

Some excerpts:




"We will become a lot more like China, once this is finished"



"How can the world we have known up till now survive if this goes on much longer?"


"Grave damage has already been done.  But maybe we can save something.  I pray that it is so."



"I think the possibility of social unrest cannot be dismissed."



"The sound of silence now spreads across the country as the economy dies"




Good Night.  God Bless.   I return to the "front line" for the next week as I am still working in one of my jobs classified "essential" with my face "masked" under our present circumstances....
