NUKE TALK: Russian Space Official Says Kremlin Could End NATO in 30 Minutes
The rhetoric is ramping up ahead of Russia’s “Victory Day” celebrations.


Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine has been a bumbling, fumbling mess, for the most part, and has exposed a vast weakness in the Russian military that very few of us saw coming.
This, of course, presents a major problem for Putin, who’s only real deterrent against China, the US, and NATO, was his assumed military prowess. Now decidedly on the defensive, the Kremlin has been forced to trot out a number of nuclear threats to keep the rest of the world from getting any ideas.
The latest frightening statement comes from the head of the Russian space agency, and suggests that NATO itself could be defeated by Putin in 30 minutes or less.
Dmitry Rogozin, Head of Russia’s Space Agency Roscosmos and former Deputy Prime Minister, said Sunday that in the event of a nuclear war, “NATO countries will be destroyed by Russia in half-an-hour.”
He stressed that such an event “cannot be allowed because the consequences will impact the [entire] Earth.”
Russia has been ramping up this rhetoric of late.
Russia has roused fear and concern over the potential use of nuclear weapons as Russian President Vladimir Putin prepares for the May 9 Victory Day celebrations, including a massive military parade and a “nuclear theme” that he hopes will send a “doomsday warning to Europe and the United States.
The parade will include the flight of Russia’s Ilyushin Il-80, known as the “doomsday” plane that will carry the administration’s senior leadership in case of a nuclear war.
Rogozin has long been a controversial figure, even by Russian standards, and many have suggested that putting stock in this statement may be premature or erroneous.

There are plenty of ways in which American politicians can react to a tragedy, with a great many of those options being a bit shortsighted.
This is especially true of Democrats, it seems, as their innate progressivism makes them uniquely obsessed with change for the sake of change – even when those changes may be constitutionally questionable.
The latest example of this comes to us from New York, where a racist massacre at a grocery store has the state government looking to spy on citizens’ social media accounts.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) on Wednesday announced plans to create a police unit designed to, in part, combat “hate speech” in the wake of the tragic shooting in Buffalo, promising to “confront this epidemic head-on.”
“We’re proposing a comprehensive plan to combat domestic terrorism, strengthen state gun laws, & investigate social media platforms promoting violent extremism,” Hochul announced Wednesday.
“In wake of the racist act of terror in Buffalo, New York will lead the charge to confront this epidemic head-on”.
The devil was in the (lack of) details:
One of the governor’s executive orders instructs the State Police to establish a “dedicated unit within the New York State Intelligence Center (NYSIC) to track domestic extremism and increase social media monitoring at the Intelligence Center.”
“The unit will be responsible for developing investigative leads based on social media analyses focused on radical extremist activities motivated threats by identifying online locations and activities that facilitate radicalization and promote violent extremism,” it reads in part.
Without any clear or concise guard rails, those employed within the unit would be left to examine any number of questionable pieces of alleged “evidence”, tagging and cataloging completely harmless users in the sort of overreach that would have George Orwell not only rolling over in his grave, but kicking at the lid of his coffin as well.
