Description

🚨 With a high-stakes NATO summit in The Hague looming, a secret deal to appease a potential Trump administration is taking shape. Is the alliance on the brink of a fundamental shift?

Deep Dive hosts Robert Johnson and Linda Miller decode the explosive details behind the upcoming summit. They reveal the White House's core demand: a stunning 5% GDP spending commitment from all allies. 💰 We explore Europe's terrifying military dependency on the US, lacking the "strategic enablers" to defend itself, and how intelligence agencies warn Russia is actively preparing for a potential conflict with NATO.

🛡️ Discover the chilling hypothetical scenarios being discussed, including a "fake rescue" in Kaliningrad designed to test NATO's Article 5 and break the alliance. Johnson and Miller analyze whether this pressure could lead to appeasement or force Europe to finally build its own military muscle. 🇺🇸 What happens if the US walks away?
