He explains this in this video on October 11th:

Forget about the New York Times, etc.; you will get here nothing but truth.

The only thing that Ritter got wrong in this video is that he assumed that what the U.S. Government does is to serve the U.S. people at the expense of people in foreign countries. The fact is that what the U.S. Government does is to serve America’s billionaires at the expense of the people in this country and in foreign countries. Unless this fact (which is documented at that link) is understood, there can be no way to solve the problem (because its cause can’t be understood if this fact is not first acknowledged). However, another thing that he might have gotten wrong is that (at 39:00 in the video) he says that Biden’s cancelling the scheduled October 12th U.S.-and-allied Ukraine-war summit at America’s Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany indicates that “the United States is abandoning Ukraine.”
