What do California and Texas have in common? Both states, despite many apparent differences, have adopted so-called free market policies to deregulate energy production and distribution, which favor private sector speculative swindlers over the public need for cheap, efficient and reliable energy. Both states also went "Green", shutting down coal-fired and nuclear plants, in favor of inefficient windmills and solar parks. That's why California had blackouts last summer, and Texans are freezing in the dark right now! This is a foretaste of what the Davos' Great Reset and Green New Deal is setting in motion for the rest of the country and the nations of the European Union, if we don't mobilize to reject this anti-human "Great Leap Backward" idiocy.

Dave Christie interviews Paul Gallagher, co-editor Executive Intelligence Review, and Joel DeJean, LaRouche Organization Texas, on the multi-decade process of economic destruction that set the stage for the horrific conditions facing Texas currently.

Richard Black, Schiller Institute representative to the UN, addresses the myths regarding China's Belt and Road Initiative and the Green New Deal. Despite the lip service given to "green initiatives," the characteristic defining China's growing economic activity betrays the genocidal intentions of the Great Reset.

With 4 million Texans shivering in the dark last night as blackouts swept the state, no media will tell you why this is happening, but we will: It is the result of more than 40 years of neoliberal policies which deregulated energy markets for speculative profits — remember Enron? — and Green policies, which are shutting down coal, oil and gas and nuclear energy production facilities, and replacing them with less efficient, less reliable, more costly systems, such as windmills and solar panels. In Texas, which now gets 23% of its electricity needs from wind generators, the turbines froze, dramatically reducing electricity supply. The Davos "Great Reset" and "Green New Deal" will greatly increase the killing, unless we stop it!

Paul Gallagher, co-editor of Executive Intelligence Review (EIR), discusses EIR's new report aimed to dismantle the genocidal intentions of the Great Reset. Watch out for new interviews to be released daily this week by the authors of the report. You can order the report here, "The Great Leap Backward: LaRouche Exposes the Green New Deal."

While some blindly believed that the United Kingdom under Prime Minister Johnson would form an alliance with the U.S. based on the shared national interests of two sovereign states, nothing could be further from the truth.

To protect a bankrupt financial system, the City of London and its allies in the Military-Industrial-Complex in the U.S. and NATO are demanding an end to sovereign governments, insisting that nations submit to their Great Reset -- which is a global central banker's dictatorship. Russia and China will not submit, putting us on a pathway to war in Ukraine and Taiwan. But such wars cannot be won, and could trigger nuclear war. The alternative was developed by Lyndon LaRouche: put the predatory financial institutions into bankruptcy, establish a New Bretton Woods financial system, and apply his Four Economic Laws to revive the American System of Physical Economy.

The LaRouche Organization today sponsored a public roundtable forum with experts on Russia, including former CIA officer Ray McGovern, former U.S. Senator Mike Gravel, Edward Lozansky, Alex Krainer, and Schiller Institute leaders Harley Schlanger, Diane Sare, and Helga Zepp-LaRouche,under the title “Worsening U.S.-Russian Relations—Reverse Them with New Paradigm, or Face Nuclear War.”The timing is crucial. In the February issue of the U.S. Naval Institute Proceedings, the Commander of the U.S. Strategic Command, Adm. Charles Richard, made the astonishing assertion that, “The U.S. military must shift its principal assumption from ‘nuclear employment is not possible’ to ‘nuclear employment is a very real possibility,’” This follows months of provocative military exercises along several of Russia’s border regions by nuclear capable bombers, ships and submarines, as well as the call by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg for Ukraine to join NATO. The current international mobilization against Russia in regard to the escapades of dissident Alexey Navalny, a pathetic right-wing racist openly deployed by British and U.S. intelligence services, based on yet another fake analysis from Britain’s Porton Down lab accusing Russia of Navalny’s novichok poisoning, must be recognized as an effort to impose a color revolution on Moscow while preparing for war. On Friday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov was asked by journalist Vladimir Solovyov, regarding the threat of new EU sanctions over the Navalny case, “Are we heading for a breach with the EU?” Lavrov replied: “We believe we would be ready for this. We are neighbors. Speaking collectively, they are our largest trade and investment partner. Many EU companies operate here; there are hundreds or even thousands of joint ventures. When a business benefits both sides, we will continue. I am sure that we have become fully self-sufficient in the defense sphere. We must also attain the same position in the economy to be able to act accordingly if we see again (we have seen this more than once) that sanctions are imposed in a sphere where they can create risks for our economy, including in the most sensitive areas such as the supply of component parts. We don’t want to be isolated from the world, but we must be prepared for this. If you want peace, prepare for war.” A parallel diabolical campaign against China, based on the lies peddled by disgraced former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, is being carried forward by Biden’s new State Department officials under Antony Blinken. As two U.S. aircraft carrier groups exercised in the South China Sea, a nuclear submarine passed through the Taiwan Strait, and Blinken expressed his agreement with Pompeo in the absurd declaration that China is committing genocide against the Uighurs. In fact the Uighur population in Xinjiang is increasing, all abject poverty has been eliminated among the Uighurs (as is true of all Chinese), and the economy is expanding rapidly. Biden held a two-hour phone call with President Xi Jinping, seen as relatively positive by the Chinese. However, if one considers that Donald Trump’s efforts to create friendly and productive relations with both Russia and China were squashed by the military-industrial complex, what is one to think of how things will go with the weak and increasingly senile President Biden? In the U.S., the farcical second impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump ended as everyone knew it would, as the anti-Trump gang fell short by ten votes to convict Trump. The unconstitutional “show trial” succeeded, however, in its intended effect—to further polarize the nation into warring camps, as the City of London and Wall Street seize power over the U.S. economy from the nation’s elected representatives through the Green Finance scheme. This fascist operation is thoroughly exposed in the EIR Special Report released on Feb. 11, “The Great Leap Backwards—LaRouche Exposes the Green New Deal” All followers of The LaRouche Organization should get the report for themselves, and purchase extra copies to distribute to friends and political representatives.

Yesterday, we at The LaRouche Organization held a day-long live-stream event commemorating the second anniversary of the passing of Lyndon LaRouche. A memorial concert celebrating LaRouche’s life opened the event, which incorporated speeches, videos, and debate appearances by LaRouche himself, as well as reminiscences from his dear colleagues over the years—including his wife and collaborator Helga Zepp-LaRouche. The event took place against a dramatic world backdrop, in which the gross and manifest disparities between the narrative world and the real world demand press freedom to burst through the attempted control imposed by the legacy media and Big Tech companies. For example, the story of a U.S. Capitol Police Officer being killed by fire-extinguisher-wielding Trump “insurrectionists” is false. The supposedly unparalleled evil of Trump’s urging his supporters to “fight like hell” is belied by the mountain of footage presented at the impeachment trial, of Democrats using similar language. Other videos presented by Trump’s defense team showed the false framing of his Charlottesville “fine people” language, and the rank hypocrisy of Democrats expressing feigned outrage about challenging the results of an election.Firings and shamings for uttering secular blasphemy—“regardless of intent,” in the words of the New York Times—create a chilling effect on speech and encourage self-policing of thought itself. Lies about a Chinese plot to ensnare the world in debt are promoted to prevent the establishment of a new economic paradigm in the world. Project Veritas, a news outlet that specializes in undercover investigations, is the latest victim of the ongoing purge from Twitter of voices unwelcome to the Silicon Valley-Wall Street-intelligence slime-mold. And the Biden Administration’s decision to appeal the British decision to not extradite Julian Assange continues the assault on press liberties that Barack Obama advanced with his use of Espionage Act prosecutions. (Even Obama didn’t prosecute Assange.) Meanwhile, what is offered as the comforting balm of all things good and holy is actually the unsavory embrace of the British Empire’s “Great Reset”/”Green New Deal,” designed to reduce the world’s population, quickly, in the name of combatting climate change. Executive Intelligence Review’s powerful report, “The Great Leap Backward,” is now available to subscribers and will soon be available for individual purchase in both print and electronic form. To identify the incorrect axioms of one’s narrative world, to free oneself to better understand the real world, requires not only a creative method of resolving paradoxes—a method fostered by a hands-on, creative education based on recreating past discoveries—but also the staying power to do the long and hard work required to make that real world a better place. In his 1979 autobiography The Power of Reason, Lyndon LaRouche wrote about the great effects that can be achieved by an impassioned commitment: “As I gauged myself against great minds during my adolescent philosophical project, and have done so in reading and related experiences constantly ever since, and as I have had the opportunity to gauge myself against key figures of this century, including leading figures in various parts of the world among my contemporaries, I know the measure of existing men and women, those who are considered outstanding as well as others. In my own work, I know that my experience is that which on a relative scale of things is one of greatness. I know what the realized pinnacles of human potential development are in our time and, to large measure, in earlier times. I have, essentially, matched them. “Thus I can address a concerned parent, or a child, and inform them of the nature of greatness as it is experienced from the inside. “Apart from those exciting moments in which a valid new discovery of some exceptional usefulness ... there is no melodramatic glory in the process of greatness. Mostly, from moment to moment, greatness has outwardly an ordinary, homely appearance. “Greatness is reflected in particular in small decisions made from moment to moment. It is not seen often as capacity for occasional ‘big and important’ acts of melodramatic potential. It proceeds in a succession of little, moment-by-moment decisions, whose cumulative effect is to steer one’s development and the cumulative effect of one’s actions in a certain way, so that after a passage of time, something important, something cumulatively important has happened.... “It is the persisting, growing determination to stubbornly pursuing a determination to reach that which may be seemingly impossible, yet necessary.... “Greatness is a quality of concentration span which is sustainable across decades, which can alter its steps without changing its course or objective.... “At many points, from childhood on, there were always persons who seemed to be walking the same sort of homely steps I walked. yet, in most cases, they have fallen behind somehow along the way.... “It is the difference ... between the person whose steps are governed by a commitment to a course and a destination, and one whose course and destination are usually the unforeseen consequence of decisions one at a time concerning individual steps. “From moment to moment, both persons’ steps are usually equally ordinary, equally homely in overall character.” There are many moments of greatness in Lyndon LaRouche’s life—major breakthroughs in thought, diplomacy, science, music, and policy. Such singularities are driven by an ongoing commitment, including seemingly small steps. Too often, attempts at political organizing are held back by a concern that they will not be big enough, or are too small to achieve their intended aim. But where will you be led by a decades-long commitment? What will guide your steps today? Next year? The Schiller Institute is taking a step today to deflate the narrative world containing arch super-villains Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping while presenting a compelling vision for a future real world, in a forum entitled “Worsening U.S.-Russian Relations—Reverse Them with a New Paradigm, or Face Nuclear War,” chaired by LaRouche’s closest collaborator, Helga Zepp-LaRouche. Please join us.

In commemoration of Lyndon LaRouche's passing on February 12, 2019, we invite you to meet, or reacquaint yourself with the mind and the personality of one of the greatest geniuses of the last 100 years. Genius without beauty is not genius at all. Join our LaRouche marathon, and bring your friends young and old alike.

“The U.S. military must shift its principal assumption from ‘nuclear employment is not possible’ to ‘nuclear employment is a very real possibility.’” — Adm. Richards, head of U.S. Strategic Command This astonishing utterance from the head of U.S. Strategic Command, Adm. Charles Richard, so soon after President Biden’s takeover, tells us that something potentially much worse lies below the worsening of U.S.-Russia relations. “There is a real possibility,” Admiral Richard wrote in the February U.S. Naval Institute Proceedings, “that a regional crisis with Russia or China could escalate quickly to a conflict involving nuclear weapons.” And this is only one of several shocking indications pointing in the same direction since Biden’s inauguration. They include the blowup of the latest “Navalny” attempt at a color revolution to overthrow President Vladimir Putin in Russia and the Jan. 31 call by the Atlantic Council (a major NATO organization) for a U.S. campaign “laser-focused,” on toppling China’s President Xi Jinping and “his inner circle.” Helga Zepp-LaRouche, the founder of the Schiller Institute, will lead a virtual roundtable discussion this Saturday, Feb. 13 at 1:00 p.m. eastern, with a number of strategic experts, on how the anti-Russia and anti-China campaigns in the West have been created, and how to reverse them.

Two years ago, Lyndon LaRouche passed away, after an extraordinary life, during which he played a leading role in shaping every significant strategic battle on the planet. To commemorate that life, we are offering a LaRouche Memoriam, a 24-hour marathon of videos featuring some of LaRouche's presentations, to provide our viewers with an opportunity to benefit from the voluminous wealth of ideas he contributed.

Join us LIVE on Thursday, February 11 at 9pm EST. Lyndon LaRouche’s movement on Thursday will publish a thorough unmasking and attack on the Green New Deal, in a 50-page EIR Special Report what it will do to our economy. This is not by any means the first such attack on Green economic and technological pretensions by LaRouche. But this time everyone we’re addressing ourselves to, knows that talk about a “green” new economy surrounds them; they either stop it now, or never. Many thought President Donald Trump had stopped the Green New Deal, or would not let it happen. Now they know it’s up to them.

In the last days, spaceships launched by the United Arab Emirates and China entered Mars orbit. Next week, NASA's Perseverance Mission will join them, as they will all engage in projects preparing for future missions, including landing human beings on Mars. These bold projects demonstrate what is possible when nations direct physical resources and human creativity to missions of discovery, with potentially great benefits to all mankind. In contrast, the self-proclaimed "greatest deliberative body" in the world, the U.S. Senate, is engaged in a show trial, a highly partisan exercise designed to isolate former President Trump, demonizing him and his supporters, and further polarize the nation. Better for all that we keep our focus on the stars!

China’s Tianwen-1 orbiter fired its engine at 6:52 a.m. EST (11:52 UTC) today to slow down, and get pulled into Mars’ orbit, joining the U.A.E.’s Hope, which arrived yesterday. Unlike any of the first Mars missions ever sent by other countries, China’s Tianwen-1 consists of not just an orbiter, but also a lander and rover.This is a very high-risk approach, but since one can only launch to Mars every 26 months, it will save a lot of time to combine two steps. Over the next two to three months, the orbiter will be photographing the red planet to allow the scientists and engineers to choose a landing spot which is both interesting and safe. The rover will be deployed in May or June and spend three months studying Mars, looking especially for underground water. Speculation has already started as to who will do the sample return mission first—the U.S. or China—which is an important step before manned missions. Happily, NASA Associate Administrator for Science Missions Thomas Zurbuchen tweeted this morning at the news of the Tianwen-1’s success: “Congratulations to China for the Tianwen-1 mission successfully entering Mars orbit today. There is much to discover about the mysteries of Mars and we look forward to your contributions!”
