The Patriot Post® · America at Risk

Sensing weakness in Washington, America’s enemies are on the move.

• Russia walked away from negotiations on Ukraine, and warned Biden that if Russia is not allowed a free hand in Ukraine, Russia will deploy its military assets to our backyard, i.e. Cuba and Venezuela. War seems increasingly likely.

• Communist China is moving aggressively into Latin America. And just over the horizon lies our wide-open border.

• Iranian militias fired rockets at the American embassy in Baghdad Thursday night. The ayatollah also posted a video depicting the assassination of Donald Trump.

• Kim Jong Un fired missiles all last week, including two more Friday. Once again, western intelligence appeared surprised by the progress North Korea is making.

Donald Trump and Mike Pence were accused of pursuing policies that would get America into a war. No one in the media says that about Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, but it’s actually true of Biden and Harris. Weakness invites war. That’s a lesson we have painfully failed to learn time and again.

When Trump warned Kim about his missile tests, they stopped. When Trump took office, the first thing he did was crush ISIS in the Middle East. He took out Iran’s terror mastermind, Gen. Soleimani.

Vladimir Putin had to watch helplessly as Trump made America energy independent, driving down the value of Russia’s biggest asset — energy. And Trump aggressively confronted communist China, forcing Beijing to sign a new trade agreement.

Trump started the Space Force, and was roundly mocked for it. But we recently learned that Russia and communist China are regularly attacking our satellites, and that the next war is likely to begin in space.

Communist China continues its aggression all over the Pacific, while the Biden Administration refuses to demand answers about how a deadly virus escaped from the Wuhan lab.

And here’s the final insult: After lying about having a plan to crush COVID, the Biden Administration finally admitted that cloth masks don’t work. So, they passed out better masks in Congress, but the masks were made in communist China. What irony!
