The European Union Is About to Crack

Published

Guest post by Drieu Godefridi

The European Union (EU) is entering a critical phase. What is unfolding in Brussels is no longer merely a crisis of governance: it is an existential crisis. Between radical green ideology, authoritarian drift, East–West divisions, and growing rejection by the people, everything indicates that the community system, as it has functioned for the past fifty years, is buckling under the weight of reality.

1. An Elite Disconnected from the People

No one voted for Ursula von der Leyen or any of the European commissioners, whose faces are unknown to most Europeans — who, however, know their iron rule all too well.

Under the guise of ecology, Brussels has imposed a Green Deal that impoverishes the middle class, prevents farmers from working, and accelerates the deindustrialisation of the continent. Energy bills are soaring, and businesses are closing one after another. The United States and China, meanwhile, are reaping the rewards in terms of jobs and investment.

Figures such as Spanish Commissioner Teresa Ribera, Executive Vice-President for a Clean, Just and Competitive Transition, are emblematic of this mindset. Convinced of holding the truth, Ribera advocates reinforcing the Green Deal even as European industry collapses — all in the name of reducing, again and again, CO₂ emissions.

In reality, outside Europe, few still care about CO₂ emissions, since humanity will adapt to climate change as it always has. We are preparing to colonise and terraform Mars, to conquer the solar system — yet we are told we cannot adapt to a 1.5-degree temperature rise?

Instead of listening to its citizens — those who simply wish to work, prosper, and raise their children — the EU responds with censorship. It multiplies regulations against so-called “disinformation,” tightens surveillance over social media, and represses dissenting voices. To crown it all, Commissioner Ribera now proposes a full-scale tariff war with Washington — as if Europe, already on its knees, could afford to alienate its only ally.

The divorce between the EU bureaucracy and the peoples of Europe has never been deeper.

2. The End of the Anti-Right Cordon Sanitaire

For decades, European democracy has rested on a tacit agreement: the centre-right (EPP) refuses to ally with the right, preferring to govern with the left and radical greens. This mechanism — a cordon sanitaire imported from German and French political culture — nullifies democracy. The left has thus maintained ideological control over the Union, even when it loses elections.

But this system is collapsing.

In France, the strategy of systematically excluding the national right is no longer tenable. In Germany, yet another coalition cobbled together to block the AfD is struggling to convince a nation whose once-mighty industry is crumbling. In Brussels, electoral reality is becoming impossible to ignore: voters are turning en masse to the right, expressing a massive rejection of European policies.

The EPP will have to break with the left and finally heed its electorate — as it has already begun to do.

3. Eastern Europe Says No to Islamic Immigration

The countries of Central and Eastern Europe — Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and the Balkans — reject the Western European model founded on mass immigration, the dilution of national identities, and imposed multiculturalism.
They oppose Islamisation, the social dependency of “migrants” sustained by welfare systems, and the staggering cost of this delusional migration policy. Their rejection is not circumstantial; it is cultural and definitive.

The East sees the West as a weary illusion, eaten away by post-colonial guilt and progressive ideology. To believe that Eastern Europeans will change their minds while Islamist attacks multiply — and the Belgian Prime Minister narrowly escapes a drone attack orchestrated by his Islamist neighbours (!) — is pure fantasy.

The Islamisation of pockets of Western Europe — Molenbeek and Brussels, the 93rd arrondissement and Marseille — is already well advanced. But there will be no Islamisation in Central and Eastern Europe. This divide alone constitutes a vital threat to the EU, because the left-wing “elites” of Europe have made Islam a matter of principle. Their multicultural utopia, nourished by hatred of the West, demands the massive importation of Islamic populations.

4. The European People Are Waking Up

Under the combined effects of the Green Deal, carbon taxes, deindustrialisation, and Byzantine regulations — more than 200,000 pages of European law — the European economy is collapsing.

When Americans pay $100 to heat their homes, Europeans pay 500. Meanwhile, the average American earns net 2.5 times more than the average European. Even a child can see that this is unsustainable — a child, but not the European Commission. European households struggle to heat their homes, feed themselves, and clothe their children. Farmers block roads, truckers protest, the middle class slides into poverty, rises again, then falls back — a harsh, endless cycle.

In response, right-wing parties are rising to power across almost all European countries. The left — which has staked everything on migrants and extreme ideologies such as transgender activism, open borders, and radical environmentalism, often inspired and financed by American groups like Mr. Soros’s Open Society — is collapsing everywhere.

The story is simple: when you strip people of their dignity, they fight back.

Conclusion: An Inevitable Implosion?

The European Union, in its current form, is nearing its end. Its agony may last months, perhaps a few years — no one knows.
The EU is being scuttled by an “elite” that no longer believes in the people, and by people who no longer believe in it.

The EU will crack.

The only question is when — and in what form — the Europe that follows will be reborn.

The Silent Conquest: When the West Surrenders by Its Own Will

Published

on

By

Three men engage in a discussion during a virtual meeting, with a focus on cultural and social topics, featuring a modern interior background.

For centuries, Europe resisted with blood and courage the attempts of Islamic expansion. It endured seven hundred years of wars, invasions, and struggles to preserve a civilization built upon Judeo-Christian values, individual freedoms, and national sovereignty. Today, however, that same Europe—and, by extension, the entire Western world—seems to be surrendering without a fight, opening its doors and abandoning its identity under the banner of political correctness and a misguided notion of multiculturalism.

These are not mere opinions. They come from an orthodox Muslim himself who, with brutal honesty, admitted: “For seven hundred years our

Pope Leo Demands ‘Deep Reflection’ on Trump’s Deportation Policy — Also Rebukes Military Strikes on Venezuelan Drug Vessels (VIDEO)

Pope Leo XIV is stepping up his quiet yet deliberate campaign against President Trump’s deportation agenda.

The Pontiff, who was elected back in May as the first-ever American Pope, began by criticizing the administration’s commitment to carrying out the mass deportation of illegal aliens.

“Many people who’ve lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what’s going on right now,” Leo complained

“The spiritual rights of people who have been detained should also be considered, and I would certainly invite the authorities to allow pastoral workers to attend to the needs of those people.”

“Many times they’ve been separated from their families for a good amount of time,” he continued.

”No one knows what’s happening, but their own spiritual needs should be attended to.”

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Leo also weighed in on the recent airstrikes against Venezuelan drug vessels and reports that the U.S. may be on the verge of trying to remove the Maduro regime from power.

“I believe violence never brings victory,” he remarked.

“The key is to seek dialogue, to find fair ways to resolve the problems that may exist within countries.”

While not as overtly political as his predecessor Pope Francis, Leo has repeatedly taken not-so-subtle swipes at Trump and the Republican Party platform.

Leo recently urged pilgrims to welcome the 10 million illegal aliens welcomed into America under Joe Biden as part of a “new missionary age.”

He went on to urge Catholics to “open our arms and hearts to them, welcoming them as brothers and sisters, and being for them a presence of consolation and hope.”

“In the communities of ancient Christian tradition, such as those of the West, the presence of many brothers and sisters from the world’s South should be welcomed as an opportunity, through an exchange that renews the face of the Church,” he said at the time.

Pope Leo Offers Another Jibe at Trump Over Deportations — Urges Catholics to Embrace Open Borders Under ‘New Missionary Age’

Last month, Leo also blessed a block of ice to show his commitment to fighting so-called climate change.

“Citizens need to take an active role in political decision-making at national, regional, and local levels,” he said at the time.

”Only then will it be possible to mitigate the damage done to the environment.”

Top Doctor Warns: Your Daily Multivitamin May Be Useless After Age 55

Doctor’s Warning

If you’re over 55 and still taking a standard multivitamin, there’s a harsh truth you need to hear: your body is not able to absorb it anymore.

The Harsh Reality

As a physician specializing in longevity, I’ve seen thousands of older adults who believed they were “covered” by their daily multivitamin — only to discover they were still deficient in the very nutrients that protect their brain, bones, heart, and immune system.

The Shocking Numbers

The reality is sobering: research shows that over 33% older adults are already deficient in at least one essential vitamin or mineral, most commonly B12, vitamin D, calcium, or magnesium. (Source: CDC, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey)

Why This Matters

These are the nutrients your body relies on to stay sharp, strong, and resilient as you age. And yet, despite faithfully swallowing their pills every morning, millions of adults over 55 are falling short.

3 Reasons Pills Fail After 55

Here’s what no one tells you: as you age, your body loses its ability to absorb nutrients. That means your daily pill may be giving you little more than false peace of mind. Here’s why:

  • Weaker stomach acid: Up to 30% of adults over 60 have low stomach acid, making it nearly impossible to break down and extract nutrients from hard pills.[1]

  • Reduced blood flow to the gut: Blood flow to the intestines decreases by as much as 40% with age, limiting how many nutrients can even enter your bloodstream.[2]

  • A thinning intestinal lining: The gut wall — where nutrients cross into the blood — becomes less efficient with age, blocking absorption of vitamins and minerals.[3]

This “triple decline” means that by the time you reach your 50s and 60s, standard pills are often little more than expensive, hard-to-swallow placebos.

The Silent Deficiencies Draining Your Energy

When your multivitamin stops working, nutrient gaps quietly appear — with real consequences:

  • Vitamin B12 deficiency → fatigue, brain fog, nerve problems

  • Vitamin D & calcium deficiency → brittle bones, dangerous fractures

  • Magnesium deficiency → poor sleep, high blood pressure, heart strain

These deficiencies explain why so many adults over 55 feel their energy, strength, and mental clarity slipping away, despite taking a multivitamin. Don’t let your body run on empty.

The Breakthrough That Changes Everything

Fortunately, there is a solution. One that doesn’t depend on your aging digestive system at all.

It’s called MicroGel™ Technology — a patented delivery system made by nutrition company HealthyCell that provides fully dissolved, ultra-absorbable nutrients in an easy-to-swallow, great-tasting gel. Instead of forcing your body to break down a rock-hard pill, MicroGel™ delivers nutrients in a ready-to-absorb format that your body can use immediately.

Studies published in peer-reviewed journals prove this gel delivers 165% more absorption than pills.

For adults over 55, HealthyCell MicroGel™ is a game-changer. The gel is easy to take straight from the packet, mix into water, or blend into a smoothie. And for anyone who struggles to swallow pills, this approach is life-changing.

Why This Matters for Your Health

When vitamins and minerals finally reach your bloodstream in meaningful amounts, here’s what you can expect to support:

  • Sharp memory and clearer focus

  • Steady daily energy

  • Strong immune defenses

  • More support for your heart, bones, and joints

And the best part? You don’t need to take more supplements — you simply need HealthyCell’s nutrient delivery system in gel form that works with your body, not against it.

What People Are Saying About HealthyCell’s MicroGel™

“Excellent vitamins! I love how they make me feel everyday. I went from having no energy to having a lot and I am 56 yrs old.” – William, 56

“I need to be taking a multi-vitamin. I hate taking pills and thought this is the perfect form for me. Over the last month of taking Bioactive each day, my energy is higher, the hair is growing thicker and my skin looks brighter.” – Melissa, 53

“I hate swallowing pills. I love HealthyCell – I put in a little water and drink!” – Priscilla, 86

Blake, a HealthyCell customer who did bloodwork before and after taking MicroGel:

“I found myself constantly feeling tired and drained, no matter how much rest I got. After getting some bloodwork done, I discovered I was deficient in two crucial B vitamins. It was clear that my regular diet wasn’t providing me with the nutrients my body desperately needed.

The change was gradual but undeniable. Each day, I felt a little more energetic and a little less like I was just dragging myself through my routines. It was as if I was slowly getting my life back. After 30 days, I had my bloodwork redone. The results were nothing short of astonishing—my vitamin and mineral levels had increased by an average of 86%, and both B vitamin deficiencies were completely corrected. Importantly, none of the levels were too high; they were all within the optimal range.”

Liz Candela, RDN, one of the nation’s leading dietitians:

“I recommend HealthyCell for its superior nutrient absorption and pill-free ease of use. My clients have seen improvements in health, quality of life, and lab results. Lab results don’t lie, so that’s the proof to me.”

My Final Word

If you’re 55 or older, you don’t have to accept nutrient decline as “just part of aging.” You don’t have to keep throwing away money on pills your body can’t absorb.

With HealthyCell MicroGel™, you can finally unlock the full benefits of your vitamins again — and feel the difference. And that’s why I recommend making the switch to MicroGel™ today.

Don’t waste another dollar on pills your body can’t use. Take back your health — and make the switch before it’s too late.
