Europe Wants War, Not Peace—and Biden’s Ghosts Still Haunt NATO

Trump’s cleaning house—but the war-hungry NATO class is still fighting to keep America tangled in Europe’s mess.

May 06, 2025

Good Morning, it’s Tuesday, May 6th, 2025.

Europe’s political class just told the world it has zero interest in peace—because peace doesn’t pay. As Trump’s team tries to unwind endless wars and refocus America at home, Brussels and DC’s globalists are doing what they’ve always done best: pushing us back toward conflict. Today’s issue exposes the real engine behind the NATO war lobby, how the left is weaponizing the judiciary, and why the regime is desperate to erase its crimes—starting with the media cover-up of the Biden disaster.

NATO Is a Suicide Pact—And America’s the Only One Bleeding

Europe doesn’t want peace. That’s the message from financial forecaster and geopolitical analyst Martin Armstrong, who just threw a verbal grenade at the entire Western establishment. According to Armstrong, the real war machine isn’t in Moscow—it’s parked right in Washington D.C. and Brussels. And unless the U.S. gets the hell out of NATO, we’re all being marched off a cliff by globalists who benefit from endless war.

Armstrong isn’t pulling punches. He points to the growing push for escalation in Ukraine despite the obvious fatigue and financial strain across the West. His words: “They do not want peace. Europe is on board with this because they’re being run by the World Economic Forum… this is a different agenda. They want war.” It’s not just rhetoric. He backs it up with decades of historical cycles that point to 2025 as a high-risk flashpoint—and he’s warning that the next step could be a direct U.S. military confrontation with Russia, under the NATO banner.

This isn’t just another hot take. It’s a gut check for anyone who still thinks NATO is about collective defense. The alliance has become a proxy weapon for unelected bureaucrats and defense contractors who see peace as a threat to their business model. Armstrong makes the case that American interests are being sacrificed on the altar of globalism, and that Biden’s exit followed by Trump’s return has only amplified the urgency of ending NATO entanglements. But here’s the kicker: even with Trump back in the White House, NATO-aligned deep staters in the Pentagon and State Department are still pulling strings and undermining any real path to peace.

Armstrong also calls out the financial rot at the core of the conflict. He warns that the economic fallout from this proxy war is already seeping into U.S. markets, fueling inflation, draining taxpayer dollars, and threatening the dollar’s global standing. “They want this war,” he says, “because they know the financial system is collapsing.”

What they don’t want you to see is that Trump’s calls for NATO reform—or outright withdrawal—aren’t isolationist fantasies. They’re survival instincts. The media will call him dangerous. Europe’s technocrats will scream betrayal. But if Armstrong’s right, staying in NATO doesn’t preserve peace. It guarantees more war, more debt, and more American lives wasted for globalist pipe dreams.

The bottom line? NATO isn’t a shield—it’s a leash. And it’s strangling any chance at American sovereignty or peace. The only real “exit strategy” left is the door.

Gingrich Drops the Hammer: Time to Abolish Rogue Courts

In a fiery segment on Monday, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich called for the elimination of certain district courts, arguing they’ve morphed from legal arbiters into political weapons. “We may have to eliminate a number of district courts to send the signal that we’re not going to tolerate dictatorship by judge,” he warned on Fox News.

This isn’t just another hot take. Gingrich is tapping into the growing fury among conservatives over left-wing lawfare being waged through the courts. From blocking deportation policies to stonewalling election integrity measures, some judges are openly sabotaging Trump’s agenda—and doing it with a smile. It’s not oversight. It’s obstruction.

Why does this matter? Because the judiciary is no longer acting as a neutral referee. It’s being used by Democrats as an unelected branch of government to override the will of voters and kneecap executive authority. If that continues, elections don’t matter—and the Constitution becomes a suggestion, not a safeguard.

What the media won’t say is that this judicial overreach isn’t accidental. It’s strategic. The same pundits who clutched their pearls over “authoritarianism” when Trump fired Comey now cheer when a single Clinton-appointed judge unilaterally blocks national policy. That’s not checks and balances. That’s tyranny in a black robe.

Gingrich’s solution may sound extreme to some—but he’s saying what millions are thinking: if these judges won’t follow the law, maybe they don’t deserve the bench.

Democrats Panic as Trump’s Anti-Gang Crackdown Gains Steam

As President Trump’s war on the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua escalates, Democrats are suddenly squeamish about enforcing immigration law. The Biden-era sanctuary city playbook is being torched—and liberal strongholds are now scrambling to respond to a wave of federal raids targeting criminal alien networks.

What’s happening? Trump’s Justice Department has designated Tren de Aragua as a transnational criminal organization, launching a multi-agency blitz across border states and urban centers. The gang, known for extortion, human trafficking, and violent crimes, has embedded itself in several blue cities—protected by the very sanctuary policies that once earned Democrats virtue points on MSNBC.

Here’s the hypocrisy: The same lawmakers who said ICE was “terrorizing families” are now holding emergency meetings as arrests mount in their districts. Suddenly, they’re not so eager to explain to constituents why gang members are roaming free while police are handcuffed by political correctness.

What the media won’t highlight is that this crackdown is wildly popular with the public—especially in neighborhoods actually affected by gang violence. Democrats who once postured about compassion are now caught between their activist base and real-world consequences.

This isn’t just a Trump win—it’s a total exposure of the left’s law-and-order double standard.

NIH Shuts Down Dog Labs After 40 Years of Taxpayer-Funded Cruelty

It took four decades, thousands of tortured animals, and mountains of public outrage—but the National Institutes of Health is finally closing its infamous animal testing labs in Montana.

According to Fox News, the NIH is shuttering the government-run facility that’s been exposed for grotesque experiments on beagles, cats, and primates. The lab, part of the Rocky Mountain Laboratories campus, killed more than 4,000 beagles over the years—often in so-called “bio-defense” tests funded with your tax dollars. What did those tests accomplish? Almost nothing useful. Just federal scientists pumping beagles full of pathogens, slicing open their vocal cords so they couldn’t bark, and calling it science.

The left loves to lecture about “following the science”—until that science is exposed as inhumane, unaccountable, and completely untethered from moral sanity.

Here’s what they’re hiding: this abuse went on under both Republican and Democrat administrations, but it was whistleblowers and conservative watchdog groups that finally dragged it into the light. The shutdown was long overdue, but there’s still zero accountability. No firings. No prosecutions. Just a quiet burial of another scandal with a “mission accomplished” press release.

Don’t expect the media to dig deeper—they were silent for years.

“To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.”

— Voltaire

Thanks for reading The Daily Briefing. We’re here to expose the lies, call out the spin, and remind the ruling class that real Americans still see what’s going on. The left isn’t trying to win with ideas anymore—they’re trying to win by censoring yours. Every day they show us they’re afraid of the truth. So we’ll keep printing it.

If the regime wants a fight over who gets to define reality—they’re going to get one.
