The second edition of “The Plot to Seize Russia – The Untold History” is now available for purchase in paperback and hardcover on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. The ebook will be available shortly.

Book description:

“Take care of Russia,” Boris Yeltsin said as he departed his presidency in August 1999. These words were directed at current Russian president, Vladimir Putin. Yeltsin specifically picked Putin as his predecessor to prevent the takeover of Russia.

So, who was Yeltsin warning against? Newly declassified documents from the Clinton Administration prove that there was a plot to rig the Russian election of 2000. These never-before-seen documents confirm numerous attempts to implement pro-Western policies using the Russian oligarchy headed by Boris Berezovsky.

On the other side were the communists who desired a return to the glory days of the Soviet Union. As one of the largest international hedge fund managers, author Martin Armstrong found himself in the middle of perhaps the greatest espionage, or attempt at a regime change for Russia, in modern history.

The Plot to Seize Russia pulls back the curtain to expose the most extraordinary attempt to seize power in modern history, but with the pen rather than armies. These declassified documents reveal a plot that has altered our thinking about the relations between the United States and Russia. The thirst for power comes seething through every line of these papers that alter our perception of reality, change the course of history, and now threaten us with World War III.

Releasing additional Epstein files to distract the public from the government shutdown has backfired on the Democrats. Email evidence has revealed that Trump’s political opponents utilized Epstein’s blackmail services to destroy the president—in real time.

The latest truth bomb shows that a member of Congress was text messaging Epstein during a February 2019 House Oversight hearing in which Michael Cohen testified about Donald Trump. Democratic Virgin Islands Del. Stacey Plaskett knew that Epstein had information on Michael Cohen, Trump’s attorney, and colluded with Epstein to shape the narrative of the investigation. “Hes [sic] opened the door to questions re who are the other henchmen at trump org,” Epstein messaged Plaskett During the hearing. Plaskett replied, “Yup. Very aware and waiting my turn.”

Epstein listened in and watched a livestream of the hearing to coach Plaskett on how to respond. He jokingly asked her why she was chewing gum, a nod that he was indeed watching in real-time. “Cohen brought up RONA – keeper of the secrets,” Epstein warned. “RONA?? Quick I’m up next is that an acronym. [sic],” Plaskett replied.

Plaskett then used that information to coerce Cohen into providing names. Her messages to Epstein align with the timing she was on the microphone. Epstein’s former properties on Little St. James and Great St. James were in Plaskett’s district and the two had close ties. How many high-profile hearings was Plaskett answering on behalf of Jeffrey Epstein? Epstein was clearly hired by the Democrats to take down Trump.

Six of Epstein’s victims named Plaskett in a November 2023 lawsuit. The congresswoman and others, including former Governors John de Jongh Jr. and Kenneth Mapp, First Lady Cecile de Jongh, Attorney General Vincent Frazer, and Senator Celestino White, were named in the lawsuit and accused of using their political influence to help Epstein Island operate outside of US law. The women believed Epstein was influencing regulatory agencies and law enforcement officials with the help of his Democratic friends. The case against Plaskett was later voluntarily dismissed with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled.

How much influence did Jeffrey Epstein have over US politics? Who had him on their payroll? Epstein was a Democrat who made contributions to Democratic candidates. He befriended everyone and anyone with influence and used it to his advantage. No one voted for Jeffrey Epstein to be an elected member of Congress. This scandal is an absolute national embarrassment and those involved must be prosecuted.

Texas is a rising star amid the national capital flight to the south. Alphabet’s Google announced plans to invest $40 billion into two new data centers in Armstrong County and Haskell County. While Google has operated in Texas for over 15 years, the news reaffirms that capital is committed to staying in the Lone Star State.

“This investment will create thousands of jobs, provide skills training to college students and electrical apprentices, and accelerate energy affordability initiatives throughout Texas,” Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai told Reuters. The project is expected to create over 1,700 jobs by 2030. The company will also establish a $30 million Energy Impact Fund to promote renewable energy initiatives.

Governor Greg Abbott praised the investment and deemed Texas the “epicenter of AI development.” AI-focused data centers are specialized facilities designed to handle the high computing, storage, and networking demands of artificial intelligence workloads such as machine learning and deep learning.

Texas offers some of the lowest energy costs in the US, essential for the energy-intensive AI computations, combined with a growing renewable energy sector that supports sustainability goals. The state, most importantly, provides a business-friendly environment with attractive tax incentives, reducing operational expenses, and encouraging tech investment. Business-friendly initiatives have been solidified by updates to the state Constitution, providing companies with security on future investments. Texas also boasts robust infrastructure, including extensive fiber-optic networks and transportation systems, which support reliable, high-speed data connectivity crucial for AI workloads.

Geographically, Texas has the land for scalable operations and is prone to fewer natural disasters. Florida, for example, may be business-friendly, but it is not geographically ideal for these centers. Moreover, Texas has a strong talent pool as it continues to grow into a global financial hub. This deal is a massive win for Texas, which has come out on top amid the infighting and political chaos that is changing the landscape of business throughout the nation.

India has caved to US demands to stop buying Russian oil, allegedly. The White House reported that Prime Minister Narendra Modi committed to halting purchases, but India’s government has not confirmed these claims or made any public declaration.

Indian Union Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Hardeep Singh Puri, confirmed India’s commitment to purchase more oil from the US, which will now supply the nation with 10% of all liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) imports. This marks the first structured contract for US LPG in India. State-owned oil companies have signed a short 1-year deal to import 2.2 million tonnes of LPG from the Gulf Coast.

The deal is mutually beneficial. Hardeep Singh Puri worded the agreement as almost a favor to the US. India does not produce enough petroleum to meet domestic needs and relies heavily on imports. LPG Mont Belvieu is up to 20% cheaper from the US than Saudi Arabia or the UAE. At $673/MT, the US is offering a bargain compared to global prices. LPG can be highly volatile, and many view this as a sign of energy stability from the US. India will still diversify its imports to avoid complete US dependency.

A historic first!

One of the largest and the world’s fastest growing LPG market opens up to the United States.

In our endeavour to provide secure affordable supplies of LPG to the people of India, we have been diversifying our LPG sourcing.

In a significant development,…

The US will begin to sanction Russian oil companies Lukoil and Rosneft on November 21, 2025. Reliance Industries and other major state-run Indian companies have sharply increased their purchases of Russian oil in the weeks leading up to sanctions.

US-India trade has been volatile since August, when President Trump placed a 50% tariff on Indian goods, downplaying the nation’s role as a trade partner, and chalking up half of the reciprocal tariff price to India’s reliance on Russian energy. Indian Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal has attempted to smooth over relations, agreeing to increase US imports in the coming years. “And being close friends, natural partners, our energy security goals will have a very high element of US involvement,” the Indian minister had said.

The BRICS member has been playing a delicate balancing act with the US and Russia since 2022. Perhaps no other nation has profited more from this war in the short term than India, which has used its neutrality to its advantage. It remains to be seen whether India will permanently halt Russian gas imports, but for now, the US is appeased with the current deal.

Ukraine Peace Deal or Get the Hell Out of NATO – Martin Armstrong

One in ten Americans receives food stamp benefits through SNAP. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins believes there needs to be an overhaul of the program to ensure only those in desperate need receive these benefits. The first step will be requiring recipients to reapply for benefits to ensure that those “taking a taxpayer-funded benefit through SNAP or food stamps are vulnerable and they can’t survive without it.”

States are asked to submit their data on welfare recipients to the federal government. There is considerable disarray at the state level, and only 29 states, primarily led by Republicans, have provided the government with updated data. Over 186,000 deceased Americans are currently receiving monthly SNAP benefits based on the limited data. “Now, that is what we’re really going to start clamping down on. Half a million are getting two. But here’s the really stunning thing: This is just data from those 29 mostly red states. Can you imagine when we get our hands on the blue state data, what we’re going to find?” Rollins noted.

SNAP is the largest social support program in the United States, costing the federal government upward of $9 billion per month. Reorganizing SNAP is the first step toward weaning the public off of the welfare state.

Currently, people must reapply for SNAP benefits every 6 to 12 months; however, they are not required to submit a full reapplication. Recipients can simply confirm that they are in the same predicament, and no one follows up. Certain states, like Illinois, California, and New York, work to streamline recertification requirements. Recipients receive a recertification packet in the mail and can complete their interview over the phone or on demand. Some households, especially those receiving SSI, are automatically reenrolled every period with extended recertification periods of up to 36 months.

Individuals and households rarely go through a full reapplication. This is one of the reasons why the welfare state continues to grow and those in the system stay in the system. Those requesting government assistance must now file updated financial information and demonstrate they meet eligibility requirements, including work requirements.

The 21 primarily Democrat-led states refusing to submit data to Washington are extorting taxpayers through a faulty welfare program. Some Democrat-led states have filed lawsuits against the USDA to prevent Washington from accessing this data. These lawmakers claim that reenrollment is too complex for vulnerable populations at-risk of losing these benefits. Every American is responsible for that monthly $9 billion payment. Dead people are receiving checks. People above the income threshold are receiving checks. There is no need to continually expand the size of the welfare state when it can be prevented.

Tehran is at risk of becoming uninhabitable due to a severe drought that has led to a severe water shortage. The drought has been the catalyst to expose decades of government mismanagement that caused Iran’s water supply to run dry. Now, the government is prepared to issue a city-wide evacuation notice in Tehran if the situation worsens.

Rain will not be sufficient to fill the dry reservoir, which was brought about by government mismanagement—farmers protested against the government in 2018 when water levels were low. Protests erupted in 2021 in the southern Khuzestan province as the people blamed the government for water mismanagement. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) controls construction over the main, poorly planned dam, which has resulted in dry rivers and wetlands. Salinity of the water supply has led to a loss of fertile agricultural land. For example, the Govtvand Damn on the Karun River caused saltwater to destroy nearby land over a decade ago, and the situation has not been resolved.

Over 75% of Iran’s land is experiencing groundwater depletion. IRGC-controlled industries receive water as a first priority, and this is used for everything from agriculture to crypto mining. Rural areas are the last to receive water, as it is carefully regulated and rationed by the government. The government has built several new dams with no concern for the ecological implications of diverting water. It is well-known that the nation uses outdated agricultural practices that often require a vast amount of water.

Tehran has no plan; 10 million people are at risk of losing access to water. “In the past, people would go out to the desert to pray for rain,” said Mehdi Chamran, head of Tehran’s City Council, state media reported. “Perhaps we should not neglect that tradition.’”

Some reservoirs have levels below 3% and rain is simply not sufficient to fill these significantly depleted reserves. A massive humanitarian crisis is underway. Where will the millions of water refugees go when their cities become uninhabitable?

This is an important report on the prospect for another American Civil War as now the polls show that 30% of American view that violence is necessary to solve policial disputes. The United States has become so POLARIZED that there is no possible resolution. Politics has devolved into trying to undermine a sitting president ll for political gain with no consideration for the country of the rule of law. Both sides see the opposition now as the enemy, not simply an oponent.

This reports tells the truth about the American Civil Wat and how the Supreme Court abandoned the rule of law in both directions rather than honor the Constitution. There was no legal basis to justify the Civil War for never did Lincoln advocate the termination of slavery. That issue was only to confine it from spreading to other states. The entire issue and battle cry was to preserve the Union. But the Supreme Court, after the fact, to justify the war, held that no state had the right to secede enshrining the very same tyranny that the American Revolution was all about. In the process, the Supreme Court has guaranteed that the only was to seede is by armed conflict.
