Could Putin’s nuclear first-use be Biden’s October surprise?


This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.


Vladimir Putin has repeatedly threatened nuclear attacks over Ukraine. Public service announcements are telling Americans how to protect against one. And President Biden is warning of "Armaggedon."


What's going on here? Could it be that Team Biden believes it can exploit politically a breach of the so-called "nuclear taboo" by Russian first-use of a low-yield tactical weapon in Ukraine?


The president has already set the predicate for martial law by declaring half the country to be "enemies of the state."


If it turns out that the size of an expected electoral "red-wave" won't assure Democratic congressional majorities via Plan A – a reprise of the vote-fraud that got him the White House two years ago, Plan B just may be to postpone the midterms by parlaying an otherwise deterrable nuclear use, and fear of its further escalation, into Biden's October Surprise.
