THE BIG PICTURE

When Most Countries on Earth Do the Exact Same Thing at the Exact Same Time — It Is a Globalism Trap – “This is not a new concept, but one that has reached its pinnacle this century. The most defining moment of this evil collusive partnership of nations was exposed for all to see during the fake ‘covid’ hoax beginning in earnest in 2020. It was not the first time nor the last, but the curtain was pulled back and the government ‘Oz’ was fully undressed without apology; an open preview of the one world technocracy being structured as the new multi-technate order. At this point, the central controlling technate for this world takeover is the Technate of America, or the North American Technate. The plans for this coup were laid almost 100 years ago, but now are becoming a reality.” – Gary D. Barnett

How To Get Away with Murder – “10 steps that shield violent criminals from accountability and have killed rule of law under progressive jurisdictions. America’s justice system has been subverted. If you are a member of a protected class, you can get away with anything in a Bolshevik jurisdiction. Let’s put ourselves in a criminal’s shoes. Here are ten ways that the justice system protects you so that it is almost impossible for you to be sentenced to real punishment. Please note that this does not apply to conservatives – they will be thrown into the gulag for the same charges. They are bad people for noticing these patterns. The purpose of a system is what it does.” – Yuri Bezmenov

The Carefully Contrived Spontaneity of the “Shocking” Epstein Files Release – “Whenever a “scandal” like the Epstein files dominates the news, we can be certain that it is meant as a distraction from something more sinister on the horizon. The Epstein files have been in the hands of the F.B.I. for eight years or more. Then why have redacted files been released just recently? Cui bono?” – Edward Curtin

The Epstein Files: A Peek Behind the Dark Curtain, pt. 2 – “Cannibals, Jerky, and Human Hunting, oh my!” – Donald Jeffries  –  GOOD READ FROM DONALD, PART 1 WAS PREVIOUSLY LINKED ON 02/08/26!!!

A Field Guide to the Abuse of the Epstein Economy – “The Neuroscience, Economics, and Psychology of a System That Made Monsters Inevitable The files, as they stand, have already done “considerable” damage to some carefully constructed reputations. The Guardian — not historically a publication one associates with conspiratorial thinking — has run the headline that the Epstein files prove a large-scale global conspiracy really does exist. ” – A Lily Bit

I told you so: Prasad-Moderna standoff lasted less than a week. FDA folded. Moderna’s mRNA flu poison will be rubber stamped later this year. – “Now I am even more convinced that the refusal to file was just a PR stunt, designed to generate MAHA headlines from all the usual bootlickers “ooooh, aaah, our heroes are fighting the evil BigPharmaaaah!” ” – Sasha Latypova

YOUR RIGHT TO KNOW: Big Food’s War On Free Speech – “Eat up and shut up. That’s what Big Food wants us to do. Since the 1990s, they’ve been passing “Food Libel” and “Ag-Gag” laws to keep us from knowing where our food comes from and how it’s produced.” – Alexis Baden-Mayer

Pharmaceutical Mass Murder With Psychiatric Drugs – “ISince the 1990s, many high-profile shootings have involved individuals under treatment with SSRIs, SNRIs, benzodiazepines, or stimulants. Toxicology or medical record data occasionally surface later—often buried in court documents, but by the time they do, news coverage has moved on. n Every Case of Mass Killings, Never Mentioned Are the Pharma Drugs Shooters Are Taking” – Dr. Sircus

If You’re a Thinker—You’re a Non-Conformist – “Following geo-politics doesn’t make me grumpy, but researching a gloomy world assures gloomy articles. Whether Trump is as stupid as he seems, or simply paralyzed by his need for Netanyahu’s support and Miriam Adelson’s money? Beyond that, do you imagine Oval Office discussions having to do with destroying nations/conducting regime-change, which also ask whether such actions are constitutional or in any sense, just? If not—who the hell does Trump think he is? What’s new with Trump’s taking over the world campaign? Trump has a plan. He will contain/constrain China by cutting their ability to get necessary energy. This, of course, is illegal under international law (and not mandated executive powers), but with checks and balances haplessly strewn across the game board, who is there to care—that matters? Seizing ships is new. ” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com  – A GOOD ONE FROM ERIK ABOVE AND ERIC BELOW (THE TWO ERIC/Ks) AS I CALL THEM!!!!!

The Spanbergering – “As you no doubt know, Virginia has a new – very Left – governor and the very Left now controls the entirety of Virginia’s state government. This is interesting because the Left is mostly confined to the urban hive surrounding the federal capital and a few diaspora hives such as Richmond. It is interesting because if you look at one of those red-blue maps that depicts the political lay of the land, the state as a whole is overwhelmingly red – meaning not Left. Yet the Left controls the state – which means it controls, basically, everything going on in the state. Leftists especially dislike those who are not of their tribe – in particular, those who are not part of their apparat – having weapons of any kind but especially firearms. Those are for the praetorians who guard Leftists – and impose Leftism. That is why the Left, in Virginia, is in the process of illegalizing firearms in Virginia – but only as regards the not-Left that is to be (so it is hoped) rendered disarmed and so helpless against the Left. I live in a rural SW Virginia county where most people own more firearms than they do cars. Yet there is almost no “gun” crime to speak of. People still leave their homes unlocked – because it is safe for them to do so. Could that safety have anything to do with the fact that anyone contemplating a home invasion understands that he will likely not be dealing with disarmed and so defenseless homeowners? Spanberger is similarly protected. But she intends to assure everyone not of her class isn’t.” – Eric Peters

Trump’s border czar says a ‘small’ security force will stay in Minnesota – “A “small” federal security force will remain in Minnesota “for a short period of time” after the immigration enforcement crackdown ends, according to White House border czar Tom Homan. “We already removed well over 1,000 people, and as of Monday-Tuesday, we’ll remove several hundred more. We’ll get back to the original footprint,” Homan said, speaking on CBS’ Face the Nation on Sunday.” – Alina Selyukh

Former Prince Andrew arrested following Epstein files revelations – “Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on his birthday Thursday on suspicion of misconduct in public office.” – Alexander Smith and Jean-Nicholas Fievet

Prince Andrew’s 66th Birthday Symbolism – “All the King’s horses and all the King’s men won’t be able to put Prince Humpty back together again. Earlier today, the title-less Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on the morning of his 66th birthday by Thames Valley Police on suspicion of misconduct in public office. A curious charge and one not accompanied by any others as far as I can see—so far. No doubt, the choice of date to carry out his arrest was done with a little symbolism thrown in for good measure. To what end—who knows. Misconduct in public office is a common law crime in British law that theoretically can carry a maximum prison sentence of life imprisonment. Why didn’t Thames Valley police come knocking on his door in November 2019 after the Maitlis interview with an arrest warrant for misconduct in public office? Have the facts and evidence available in his case materially changed in the intervening six years? The only thing to really alter is the arrival of more publicity arising from further Epstein file releases and a couple of additional photos of Prince Andrew in very compromising positions.” – Gerry O’Neill  – GOOD READ FROM GERRY!!!

‘Free speech is pure bulls**t’ – Macron – “The French president has demanded transparency from social media platforms on how their algorithms operate” – RT

Another Undeclared Unconstitutional War?- “Iran in the Crosshairs. Strangely, nowhere in this article is it mentioned that U.S. military attacks on Iran legally require a Congressional declaration of war. Apparently, it’s all up to Mr. Trump and Israel whether Iran gets hammered soon. We the people have absolutely no say. The U.S. Constitution simply doesn’t matter. Iran poses no direct threat to U.S. national security. There is no clear and present danger; no defensible reason to launch yet another attack on Iran. Yet it seems those attacks will soon be coming,” – Bill Astore

Bad Boy Gives his Bad Report Card a Bad Report – “One way a bad boy might deal with a bad report card is to claim the teacher is lying or doesn’t know what she is talking about. Most bad boys, however, would be smart enough to figure out they can’t sell that excuse to mom or dad. Yet, that is the flimsy excuse Trump’s economic chief Hassett gave today for the bad report card delivered by the Fed over the damage being done by the Trump Tariffs to American businesses and consumers. White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett said Wednesday that the authors of a recent New York Federal Reserve paper that found U.S. companies and consumers are shouldering most of the tariff burden should be “disciplined.”” – David Haggith  – YEP, IT’S ALL THE MESSAGER’S FAULT!!!!!

Antifa’s days may finally be numbered – “But let’s not get too excited yet, either.” – Tom Knighton

The Rise of Thomas Massie — “A Libertarian disciple of Ron Paul has almost overnight become a political star. Israel and President Trump probably aren’t happy about this surprising development. From previous interviews with Rep. Massie, I know that the government of Israel, or at least its main lobbying group, the AIPAC, has made Massie target No. 1 for removal from the political stage. By now, everyone who follows politics also knows that President Trump has also gone out of his way to to try to make sure Massie is defeated in his upcoming re-election bid.” – Bill Rice Jr.

U.S. trade deficit is tariff-proof. Imports jump to record high in 2025. – “U.S. posts its third-largest trade deficit ever. China is a big loser, while Vietnam and Taiwan are winners. High tariffs were supposed to slash chronically large U.S. trade deficits. Turns out they really didn’t.” – Jeffry Bartash

Pending Home Sales Drop to Record Low in the Data, from Already Low Levels, on Big Drops in the South & Midwest – ““Improving affordability conditions have yet to induce more buying activity”: National Association of Realtors.” – Wolf Richter

No! The National Debt Problem Isn’t Getting Better! – “I see a lot of people out there in the world of social media claiming that Trump is solving the debt problem. One woman insisted that “Trump is paying down the debt!” However, despite all the talk about DOGE and spending cuts, despite all the chatter about tariff revenue plugging the budget hole, the national debt keeps getting bigger and bigger. Last October, U.S. government debt eclipsed $38 trillion. Just four months later, it’s approaching $39 trillion. Just since the first of the year, the national debt has ballooned by $300 billion. It rose by $145.7 billion in January alone. That’s roughly $50 billion per day!” – Mike Maharrey

Structural Shifts in a Still-Dollarized World – “The current state of de-dollarization resembles a long-term structural drift rather than a financial rupture; danger is not imminent, and the dollar remains at the center of global payments, funding, and trade.” – Peter C. Earle

Mortgage Recast Versus Refinancing: Which Works For You? – “There are ways to lower your monthly mortgage by using recasting or refinancing. Each option works differently, so it’s important to understand how they compare. Mortgage recasting is when you make a lump-sum payment to your principal balance. Once done, your lender then calculates a new, lower monthly payment. Your interest rate stays the same.” – Anne Johnson

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Why Survival Skills Matter More Than Gear: 5 Lessons From 25 Days on History Channel’s Alone The Beast – Jason Salyer

Community Defense in Canada: Building a Trusted Network Before Crisis Hits – “In Canada, real security rarely comes from isolation. It comes from coordination. Whether we’re talking about rural fuel theft, extended power outages, wildfire evacuations, or civil disruptions, the households that fare best are the ones that are connected — quietly, deliberately, and legally. Preparedness culture sometimes romanticizes the lone homestead. But even a well-equipped family cannot maintain 24-hour awareness, manage mechanical failures, respond to medical emergencies, and monitor their surroundings indefinitely. Fatigue alone makes that impossible.” – denob

Prepper Blacklist: 10 Items They Don’t Want You To Buy – “When it comes to emergency preparedness, most of us are just trying to prepare for the worst and learn how to take care of our families in a crisis. We’re not looking for trouble. But what if some of the very tools we rely on in emergencies are raising red flags? What if buying certain survival items is enough to land you on a list you never knew existed? Nowadays, nothing you do on the Internet is private. Even if you use a VPN, companies like Palantir and Microsoft can find ways to track and record everything you do, especially everything you purchase.” – Alan Urban

Late-Winter Bee Survival: The 60-Day Danger Zone Every Off-Grid Keeper Must Beat – Bill Heid

Mobile Device Battery Management – Part 1 – “There have been many articles by myself and others on SurvivalBlog that discuss the use of mobile electronic devices such as radios, flashlights, cell phones, red dot sights, drones, cameras, etc. for emergency preparedness and disaster scenarios. The one thing all such devices have in common is that they require power of some sort, usually in the form of a battery, and without power those devices are about as useful as a paper weight. When using mobile electronics you want to be able to operate them as long as possible without having to change batteries or recharge them – that’s where battery capacity comes in. ” – J.M.

THE BIG PICTURE

8 Lies Satan Uses to Trip You Up – “Hone your skills to be a human lie detector!” – Kate Dreston

The growing isolation and persecution of Christians who put Christ first in their faith and America first in their politics – “The warmongering neocon ideology that dominates Washington is driving a wedge right through the middle of the Christian churches. This is a satanic attack being exploited by the globalists.” – Leo Hohmann

Protecting Sex Predators: The Sordid Reality of the Global Power Elite- “Nearly 30 years after the first complaints were filed, the Epstein files remain a masterclass in how the ruling class shields its own. This is no longer just about one man’s crimes—it is about the machinery of silence that keeps the global elite untouchable. We are long past the point for partisan excuses and institutional gaslighting. The question is no longer whether Jeffrey Epstein—the hedge fund billionaire/convicted serial pedophile and sex trafficker—committed monstrous crimes against young girls, many of them children. We know he did. What remains unresolved is something far more troubling. We know that Epstein did not act alone.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

Pam Bondi has Been Denying Justice for Epstein Victims for Almost 2 Decades Now – “It is easy to understand now why President Donald Trump chose Pam Bondi to be the U.S. Attorney General after he won the elections in 2024. He needed someone he could trust in to keep the dark secrets of Jeffrey Epstein hidden, and protect himself and his billionaire buddies from the evidence in the hands of the U.S. Department of Justice.” – Brian Shilhavy

The Epstein Files That Actually Matter – “The Epstein Files Accidentally Exposed a Century-Old Extraction Machine For Those Who Are Willing to Look. Everybody wants to talk about the island. The private jet with its leather seats and its logbook of the damned. The underage girls ferried like cargo between mansions and Caribbean shorelines. The hidden cameras, the blackmail apparatus, the rituals of degradation performed behind mahogany doors by men whose names adorn university libraries and hospital wings. And they should talk about it — what transpired on Little Saint James was a theatre of predation so methodical, so insulated by wealth, that its very existence constitutes an indictment not merely of the perpetrators but of every institution that averted its gaze for decades. But here is the trap embedded in that revulsion: the more intensely you stare at the depravity, the less clearly you see the architecture that made it possible. Because Jeffrey Epstein was not, in any primary sense, just a predator who happened to accumulate powerful friends. He was an apparatus ” – A Lily Bit

Beef Jerky = Human Flesh? – Epstein Files Part 4 (VIDEO) – “Are the repeated references to beef jerky in the Epstein files a code for cannibalism, especially since they keep stressing the need for refrigeration?” – Makia Freeman

Les Wexner’s Very Bad Week: Billionaire Forced to Testify About Epstein and OSU Sexual Abuse Scandal – “On Wednesday, February 18, 2026, billionaire Les Wexner is scheduled to testify in a closed door deposition regarding his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. In the two months since that report, Wexner’s name has been revealed in numerous documents, and calls for him to testify have grown louder.” – Derrick Broze

Hawaii Bills Would Allow Gov’t to Quarantine People, Enter Property Without Permission, Seize Firearms, and Suspend Laws – Jon Fleetwood

ICE Expands Watchlist Effort – “Meanwhile, homeland’s spokesperson is resigning” – Ken Klippenstein

What Is the Correct CO2 Concentration? – “The 2009 Endangerment Finding treated carbon dioxide as a pollutant that threatens public health and welfare. For more than a decade, that designation has functioned as the legal foundation for regulating fossil fuels, electricity generation, transportation, and much of the modern economy. If carbon dioxide is truly a pollutant, then there must be a threshold. There must be some identifiable boundary at which CO2 shifts from being part of the natural carbon cycle to being harmful in a biological or climatic sense. If such a boundary exists, it should be visible in geology, in plant physiology, or in the empirical record of Earth’s climate.” – Dr. Matthew Wielicki

 

 

NEWS

Europe’s Civilizational War Will Be Bloody – “When all the ‘release valves’ for a civil society have been welded shut, society stops being ‘civil.’ It seems as if every month a new story comes out of Britain warning about the likelihood of future civil war. Retired colonel Richard Kemp recently gave a television interview during which he warned that the “Islamification” of the United Kingdom would lead to “inevitable conflict.” “No government,” Kemp argues, “has the guts to stop…the Islamification of the U.K.” Consequently, ordinary Brits now need to prepare for the likelihood of “civil war in Europe.” Describing the looming conflict in the U.K. as a far more serious and deadly situation than what gripped Northern Ireland for decades,” – J.B. Shurk

A class-action lawsuit seeks to stop TSA from unlawfully seizing flyers’ cash – “If you get stopped at an airport security checkpoint with $100 or more in cash, Transportation Security Administration agents can fleece you. TSA has stripped more than 10,000 travelers of their money since 2014, but the supposed “criminals” are almost never charged after their cash is taken. A class-action federal court case could finally end this outrage. “TSA has secret policies that tell its screeners that they must seize travelers’ cash,” Dan Alban, the lawyer leading a nationwide class-action suit against the agency, tells me. Alban is with the Institute for Justice, which is fighting to stop airport checkpoints from being Constitution-free zones. Federal law prohibits travelers from taking more than $10,000 in cash out of or into the United States without filling out an official form. But traveling inside America with hefty amounts of cash is perfectly legal. That doesn’t stop TSA from plundering passengers on any and every BS pretext.” – James Bovard

World War III: Iran, Russia, China To Hold Naval Drill In Strait Of Hormuz In Show Of Force And Expanding A ‘Multipolar World Order On The Oceans’ – “The Iranian islands in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz are impregnable fortresses and unsinkable aircraft carriers that represent the national honor of Iranians.” – The WinePress

Trump Unveils Japan’s First Wave Of Mega US Investments: Oil, Gas, Minerals From Ohio To The Gulf – ” Trump previewed in a Truth Social post on Tuesday: “Our MASSIVE Trade Deal with Japan has just launched!” He then boasted that “The scale of these projects are so large, and could not be done without one very special word, TARIFFS.”” – Tyler Durden

Lions… Yes, Its Another “Trade Deal Pledge” With No Timeline, and No Specifics. – Gregory Mannarino

Zohran Mamdani’s Budgetary Buffoonery – “Truly a courageous and brilliant new strategy from the left: raising taxes. How novel.. When Zohran Mamdani ran for mayor, he sold New Yorkers a vision of relief. Free childcare. Free buses. A rent freeze. A city that would finally tilt toward the struggling rather than the secure. What he did not campaign on was a nearly 10% property tax hike affecting more than three million residences and over 100,000 commercial properties. Yet, days after his election, here we are.” – Quoth the Raven  – LINKED ABOUT THIS YESTERDAY AS WELL!!!

‘SCANDALOUS’: Liberals plan to spend $1.5B on refugee healthcare while 23K Canadians die waiting for doctors – “Budget officer bombshell exposes Interim Federal Health Program scandal that sees rejected claimants get physio, dental and more while millions of Canadians can’t find basic care.” – Tamara Ugolini

Have You Seen What China’s New Humanoid AI-Powered Robots Are Capable Of Doing? (with VIDEO) – “The footage that is posted below looks like it could have come out of a science fiction movie, but I assure you that this is very real… Needless to say, U.S. companies haven’t built anything remotely similar yet. Last year, Unitree rolled out a bunch of clunky robots that twirled handkerchiefs around, and that was considered to be impressive at the time. But the jump in sophistication that we witnessed in this year’s performance was truly monumental…” – Michael Snyder

I would just say, you know, welcome to the party because it’s been this way for a long time and I like I said, I don’t have the answer to why are people stupid.

What I’m going to share with you today is a architecture for looking at adrenocchrome. As I understand and the people who know more about this than I do is that the adrenochrome is being created by taking these kids scaring them fight or flight and then torturing them and that puts the body into a state that they create adrenrome So, I wanted to actually explain this and I believe I have probably the first explanation of how this is going on at the molecular systems level.

Freezing to Death as Energy Bills Become Unaffordable – “Your heating bills may leave you ‘speechless’ this winter. When Tracie Klossner opened up her utility bill this month, she immediately walked over to her thermostat and turned the temperature down by a few degrees. “I was just utterly speechless,” said Klossner, a purchasing manager for a small manufacturing company. As millions of Americans reel from the coldest invasion of the Arctic in years now comes the sticker shock of high utility bills after heat ran nearly nonstop to combat the freeze. Turning down the heat can be dangerous. Prolonged exposure to low indoor temperatures affects the body in several intertwined ways—physiological, metabolic, and psychological—and the risks rise sharply for infants, the elderly, and anyone with cardiovascular or respiratory conditions.” – Dr.Sircus

Resistant to Novichok, Russia had to go to South America to find lethal frog poison to kill Navalny! – “The Brits are past masters in the dark arts of propaganda. The poison frog is their style. But this time, it’s croaking with contrivance. f Russia wanted to kill Western intelligence asset Alexei Navalny while in prison, it could have used all sorts of devious methods to simply bump him off. Russian state agents could have laced his prison rations or water with the notorious Soviet-era chemical weapon Novichok, or faked a suicide by self-strangulation. Or feigned a head trauma incurred by him slipping on a bar of soap. Navalny died in 2024 aged 49 while in a Siberian penal colony serving 19 years for convictions over extremism and corruption. The Russian authorities claimed his death was due to natural causes. He was complaining of ill-health. At the weekend, five European governments have revived accusations made by Navalny’s widow that he was murdered on the orders of Russian President Vladimir Putin.” – Finian Cunningham

The Big Lie About Iran’s Support for Terrorism – “US policymakers, particularly under the current Trump administration (as of February 2026), consistently describe Iran as the world’s leading or foremost state sponsor of terrorism. This characterization has been a cornerstone of U.S. policy toward Iran for decades, with Iran designated as a State Sponsor of Terrorism by the U.S. State Department since January 19, 1984—the longest-standing designation on the current list (which also includes Cuba, North Korea, and Syria). But what does the data actually show? While it is true that Hamas and Hezbollah have fired thousands of rockets into Israel over the past 25 years, very few of those have caused civilian casualties… The death toll from rockets specifically is approximately 50-75 people killed over the entire 2001-2025 period, rather than thousands. By contrast, Israel has killed 11,200-11,500 Palestinians between 2000 and October 6, 2023. Since October 7 until the present, the Israeli military has killed 73,000+ Palestinians killed in Gaza, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. In January 2026, an Israeli military official accepted the Gaza Health Ministry figure of over 71,000 killed by direct Israeli fire. If the United States is genuinely concerned about rooting out the supporters of terrorism, then it should be threatening the Gulf Arabs… Saudi Arabia and Qatar in particular. The point I am making is that the United States is using a false charge of terrorism by Iran as a pretext for launching an unprovoked attack. This is not only wrong, it is evil in its purest form.” – Larry C. Johnson

Lindsey Graham Says ‘The Wars Of The Future Are Being Planned Here In Israel,’ As Trump Admin Plans For Weeks-Long War With Iran – “South Carolinian GOP Senator Lindsey Graham visited Israel for the umpteenth time in recent months, where he gave a speech in Tel Aviv lauding the impending destruction of Iran and the current regime in charge.” – The WinePress  – YOUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK.

The Hidden Costs of Country Living – “The appeal of living in the country is the assumption that life will be simpler and less complicated. That’s true to some degree, but what many learn quickly is that some things actually can get more complicated and far from simple. Most of these factors are driven by the remote location of a house in the country. That’s the root cause leading to higher costs, more time spent doing some of the simplest things, and increased maintenance. Let’s start with the most obvious.” – Olivia Brooks

Popcorn’s Big Secret: Why the Healthiest Version Never Comes in a Box – “Big Food has spent years selling popcorn as a cute little “treat” that somehow needs their secret flavors, neon butter dust, and chemical-lined microwave bags to be worth eating. But once you look past the slick marketing and movie-night nostalgia, you start to notice something they’d rather keep quiet: plain popcorn, made right at home, is one of the cheapest, simplest health foods around — and their version often turns it into a chemical-laced junk snack instead. In other words, the kernel isn’t the problem. It’s what gets done to it after it leaves the farm. The Whole-Grain Goldmine They’d Rather Downplay” – Bill Heid

THE BIG PICTURE

The Wrath of Man Long Since Earned. A Final Warning from the Old Blood – “I’m the son of men who crossed oceans with nothing but honour and a rifle. Honour was never abstract to us. Never a thing could or can be measured in money, weighed in gold. It was and is the quiet covenant between a man and his word, between a father and the future he’s sworn to guard. They, the Financialists and all their money grubbing priests, murdered honour in ways that don’t only mock every oath we ever swore, but mock anything that is good and right and human real. Make no mistake, however. Do not believe our honour is a commodity any longer. We men, we few men of honour, remember what you’ve forgotten or never knew: that some debts are paid only in the coin of consequence, at the going rate of steel and ash.” – E.M.

Epstein-itis – ” Gird your loins. It’s getting worse by the hour. The Jeffrey Epstein files suggest that people will do anything and that people will believe anything.

Will Trump’s Legacy Be Saved If He Starts World War III? – ” Trump wants to be remembered as the President who preserved the United States as the dominant economic and military force on the planet, the President who increased prosperity at home and peace abroad, against all odds. Trump, for all his talents, has learned little that can help the United States today. The American imperial era is fading, sinking under the weight of government bankruptcy and a consumer-based economy dependent on the very employment sectors that blockchain, robotics and AI are rapidly disrupting. Americans are increasingly poorly educated, and many struggle to meet their own needs, under a complex system of regressive taxation and minutely detailed regulations designed by and for the upper crust. Not understanding what to do, Trump seeks autocracy, to be guided by his own mind, and his own morality. ” – Karen Kwiatkowski

Will Cuba Return to US Colonial Rule? – “As the White House threatens war against Cuba, I am reminded of the charming evenings my parents and I spent at Havana’s venerable ‘Floridita Bar, sipping a newly invented cocktail, the Margarita, with the renowned writer, Ernest Hemingway. `Papa’ Hemingway, who then lived in Cuba, loved this island with a great passion and wrote about it often. I feel the same way. I’ve been visiting Cuba since before Castro took over and feel at home in this socialist nation, no matter how threadbare or destitute.” – Eric S. Margolis

Democrat Officials Discard Americans as Collateral Damage – “Democrats see even fellow Democrats as expendable. When the most Democrat-voting county in America treats fellow Democrats as worthless trash, there’s no limit to how much harm Democrats are willing to inflict upon citizens across the United States. The upcoming midterm elections later this year matter. Why? Because American lives are at stake. Democrats see the lives of fellow Democrats as expendable. They certainly don’t care about yours.” – J.B. Shurk

“You Had Me at Hello”: Newsom and AOC Go to Europe to Pitch High Tax, High Regulation Policies – “Newsom and Democrats such as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) were selling a brave new world that looked a lot like the broken old world. It was an ironic moment. They were addressing countries at the Munich Security Conference that had previously destroyed their economies through socialist and far-left policies. The rush of liberal Democratic officeholders to Europe was telling. A new poll shows that a record 58 percent of voters believe their party is “too liberal.” But Newsom and Ocasio-Cortez found a welcoming audience in Europe. The global elite gushed over Ocasio-Cortez and sat enraptured as she rattled off socialist platitudes.” – Jonathan Turley

Apple buys Israeli ‘pre-speech’ tech firm implicated in Gaza genocide – “Tech giant Apple has quietly paid nearly $2 billion for a ‘pre-speech’ tech company whose employees helped Israel commit genocide in Gaza. And Apple has paid this money, the second-biggest deal in its history, for a company that doesn’t have a product, doesn’t have any revenues and whose website is a single page containing 15 words. The company, Q.ai, is developing sensors which map the imperceptible movements of a human face to determine the words someone is thinking before they’re spoken. They call it silent speech. Or pre-speech. And it’s exactly as sinister as you think it is.” – Nate Bear

Macron’s AI Clown Show: Europe’s Digital Dilemma – “Macron’s striking presence in foreign affairs—whether regarding the Ukraine war or recurring provocations toward the United States—correlates with his aggressive censorship policy toward his own population. A president without a people, steering his minority government through a budgetary crisis that brings France ever closer to the fiscal abyss. In Macron’s persona, the European misstep is condensed: economically failed, deeply unpopular among his own people, geopolitically essentially irrelevant—and yet imbued with lofty, messianic plans.” – Thomas Kolbe

Through November, the trade deficit is $1.134 trillion. There will be no significant change in the trade deficit in 2025 vs 2024. There may even be a small increase in the deficit.

The Chinese Lunar New Year holiday (Feb. 17) typically boosts Chinese gold demand. This year, buying is hotter than ever, even with elevated prices. ” – Mike Maharrey

EVs Become New Affordability Play: Buy Used, Three Years Old, Save 50% – “Electric car affordability remains out of reach for many consumers because these vehicles still cost more than petrol-powered cars, with average transaction prices for a new EV in August 2025 at about $57,000. Still, some buyers want EVs and are turning to the used car market. “You can get a two- or three-year-old EV for 50% off, and you’re talking about something with a lot of technology and a warranty on the battery.” There’s also a tsunami of off-lease EVs from 2023 to 2024 hitting the market now. EV depreciation has been an absolute nightmare for owners who bought new. At this point, buyers can often wait 2 to 3 years and pick up an EV at roughly a 50% discount, with full vehicle and battery warranties still intact.” – Tyler Durden

The Pentagon Will Remove Your Off-Grid Location. Here’s Why – “At first, the idea sounds strange. Most off-grid homesteaders are not doing anything illegal, and they are not threats to anyone. So why would the Pentagon be involved at all? The answer is that the Pentagon does not think in terms of personal lifestyle choices, but they see it as strategic awareness.

How to Start a Local Prepper Group and Build a Reliable Network – “If you’ve been preparing for any length of time, you’ve probably reached that moment when stacking supplies no longer feels like the whole answer. Extra food, more ammo, another water filter. It’s all important, but at some point you realize that resilience isn’t just about what’s in your basement. It’s about who stands beside you. That’s when the decision to start a local prepper group shifts from a passing thought to a strategic move.” – Bob Rodgers

The New Rules of Bugging Out in 2025: Lessons from the Last 5 Years – “When I started prepping around 2008, the concept was designed to get you out of a bad spot fast. Many people (me included) had some form of pre-prepared bag that was intended to be thrown on in seconds that contained all the supplies you needed to live off the land. This seems like a great idea but add kids or elderly relatives into the mix and it gets more complicated. Let’s say you do bug out, then what? You will never be able to carry enough food to last you more than a few days and you should banish any notion that you’re going to be living off the land or scavenging for food and supplies. Bugging out has always been a last-ditch option in my mind, but worthy of consideration for a lot of us.” – Pat Henry

Papercrete Recipe and Instructions – “Papercrete was invented in the 1920s, but it was so easy to make, no one bought it. Papercrete has been used to build homes, walls, fences, and is easily formed into any object from flowerpots to furniture.

Better yet, you can use regular hand tools and power tools to saw it, drill it, and you can even pound nails into it.” – Steve Nubie

THE BIG PICTURE

Be Worthy – “We are all sinful, we are all fallen, we are all imperfect, but we all still make every choice in our lives. When we sin, it is through our choices. When we rise above sin, it is through our choices. Good choices move us away from sin and closer to God. Bad choices move us closer to sin and away from God. When we speak of people being “good”, we do well to apprehend that we are ascribing to them a tendency to make more good choices than bad, and when we speak of people being “bad”, we are ascribing to them a tendency to make more bad choices than good. It really is as simple as that. ” – Peter Nayland Kust

For months leading up to the 2024 election, the “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) movement captivated a nation overwhelmed by chronic diseases. I found hope in a powerful promise regarding our food supply: we would finally stop poisoning our own people. We were told that the new administration would take a sledgehammer to the corrupt alliance between federal regulators and the chemical industry. We were promised a war on the health epidemic that is sickening our children. But as the dust settles in Washington, the slogan has revealed itself to be exactly what The New Lede questioned in December: a “Trojan horse”. The very voters who turned out to demand safer food and water have been handed a policy agenda that protects the poisoners.” – Lee Evslin

As each day brings forward more details from the Epstein files, the Trump Administration continues to double down and claim there is no actionable information being revealed, even as business leaders and some political leaders outside the U.S. who are in the Epstein files are resigning in disgrace, and probably preparing for criminal charges. With President Donald Trump controlling the FBI and the DOJ, and with both agencies so far stating that there is nothing to prosecute, the only tool left to those in Washington D.C. is the power of the subpoena, to force testimony under oath before Congress.” – Brian Shilhavy

The Last Valley – “Study the Thirty-Year’s War to see Europe’s potential future. I believe this will all kick off when “remigration” becomes a realistic expectation across Europe. Mohammedans will not just be taken to airplanes and depart peacefully. Once they occupy a city and build mosques, this territory becomes, in their minds, part of the global Islamic “Umma,” and once it is, it can never be given back to infidels without a fight. (It took the Spanish nearly 800 years to expel the Moors.) And anybody who does not understand that Muslims have been stockpiling arms across Europe for the fight they know is coming is extremely naive. What is easier to sneak into an European country: 2,000 fighting-age Muslim men, or one twenty-foot cargo container that can be unloaded from a truck in a matter of minutes? How many of these containers are hidden across Europe? We’ll find out soon enough, and all the European Traitor Class politicians will plead that they had no idea this might happen. The millions of military-age men who have traveled partway around the world to arrive in Europe are also more used to living in harsh conditions without clean running water, sanitation, or supermarkets. They will be able to survive conditions that will cause Europeans to go into shock. Low IQ men with very high testosterone, driven and united by religious fanaticism, will win over higher IQ men men with low testosterone during the initial stages of conflict in Europe.” – Matthew Bracken

Report Uncovers A Continuous, Massive Pipeline of Canadian Weapons Flowing Directly To Israel – “The rhetoric in mainstream media, only after so much genocide has occurred in Gaza, was to condemn Israel for its actions after the October 7th attack that occurred in Israel. Condemnation and international calls for a ceasefire from countries like Canada only came well after Israel continued to obliterate Gaza. Even after the narrative shifted, and Canada insisted that it had restricted arms exports to Israel, it appears this may not have been true at all.” – Arjun Walia

When Did Starvation Become an Acceptable Tool of Foreign Policy? – “The Trump administration has abandoned diplomacy. Marco Rubio is not behaving as the Secretary of State. If Pete Hegseth is the Secretary of War, a more appropriate title for Rubio is the Secretary of Economic War. For three quarters of a century, the U.S. has attempted all manner of assassinations and coups to overthrow the government of Cuba. In Cuba, there is already not enough oil to guarantee your car, generator or hot water will run. There is not enough electricity to keep the lights on. As a result, tourism, the economic lifeblood of Cuba, is drying up. But if the still standing regime is to fall, the embargo must be tighter. “THERE WILL BE NO MORE OIL OR MONEY GOING TO CUBA – ZERO!” Trump stormed. “I strongly suggest they make a deal, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.” Seeking “a total blockade on oil imports” to Cuba, at the end of January, Trump signed an executive order imposing tariffs on any country that sends oil to Cuba.” – Ted Snider

ONE DAY THERE WILL BE NO OFFER — ONLY A BID – “What happens when paper stops clearing and liquidity vanishes? In a world where debt has swollen far beyond historical precedent, the gold/S&P ratio becomes more than a chart — it is a stress indicator of the system itself. The rising ratio does not celebrate gold’s strength; it reflects the gradual erosion of confidence in paper assets. If this trend continues, what we are witnessing may be less a market cycle and more a structural shift in how wealth is measured and preserved.” – Egon von Greyerz

Wilderness Skills: Winter Tracking in Snow – “Winter has a way of silencing the landscape. Leaves are gone. Underbrush collapses. Insects disappear. Sound carries differently. But the greatest transformation is not what you hear — it’s what you can see. Snow turns the outdoors into a ledger. Every movement is recorded. Every crossing leaves evidence. Wildlife patterns that remain invisible in summer suddenly become obvious. Human movement that would go unnoticed in dry ground stands out in stark contrast.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK  (MARDI GRAS)

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I’d of said the right thing
But I must have used the wrong line
I been in the right trip
But I must have used the wrong car
My head was in a bad place
And I’m wondering what it’s good for 

I been the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
My head was in a bad place
But I’m having such a good time
I been running trying to get hung up in my mind
Got to give myself a little talking to this time

Just need a little brain salad surgery
Got to cure this insecurity
I been in the wrong place
But it must have been the right time
I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong song
I been in the right vein
But it seems like the wrong arm
I been in the right world
But it seems wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong

Slipping, dodging ,sneaking
Creeping hiding out down the street
See me life shaking with every hoot I meet
Refried confusion is making itself clear
Wonder which way do I go to get on out of here

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I’d have said the right thing
But I must have used the wrong line
I’d a took the right road
But I must have took a wrong turn
Would have made the right move
But I made it at the wrong time
I been on the right road
But I must have used the wrong car
My head was in a good place
And I wonder what it’s bad for

THE BIG PICTURE

This Is Armageddon Energy. For Them. – “Whatever is on the other side of this, is up to us. We choose. This is our world, not theirs. Time to step up. Yes, it’s just that bad. And Congresswoman Lauren Boebert described the worst of it on Wednesday, after viewing the still embargoed files. They eat us. They are cannibals. That’s their most secret sin, beyond the rape, torture and murder of the innocent. “Pizza” is not just the rape of children, it means eating children. “Jerky” is the dried flesh of babies. Why did Epstein order 330 gallons of sulphuric acid shipped to his island, prior to his arrest? Because sulphuric acid dissolves bones. Pam Bondi, who endures being shouted at all day long by both sides, states the truth of the matter. If we knew all, the system would fall.” – Elizabeth Nickson  -LONG, BUTGOOD READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jeffrey Epstein Is Alive – The Second Island Nobody Told You About – “Jeffrey Epstein Didn’t Kill Himself Because Jeffrey Epstein Is ‘Still Alive’. Whose body did they actually autopsy?” – 🐺The Wise Wolf and Lily-Rose Dawson

Fauci’s Cruel Animal Experiments Continue Under RFK. Jr. (VIDEO) – “The era of torturing poor, defenseless beagles under Fauci is not over; it is continuing under RFK Jr.’s watch. In fact, just last month the NIH issued even more grants to fund cruel animal experimentation with taxpayer dollars.” – Maria Zeee

High on Health: Baby Food Found to Be More Than 70% Ultra-Processed and Additives – “Getting a healthy head start isn’t that easy.” – Kelli Ballard

Wasted Effort – “Everything in today’s world is marketed as a solution to some overall human harm, either to us or because of us, whether it works or not, or has any effect or not. I’m all for the environment, but it’s a bit of hubris that makes us think we can have an effect on it. The earth itself creates more CO2 than the entire history of human beings by a large margin. One volcano can replace all of the CO2 that we remove through all of the efforts of humanity, all of the trillions of dollars spent and that’s assuming that CO2 is bad, which I absolutely refuse to believe. I’ve asked trees and they agree with me.” – T.L. Davis

Half The Church Will Applaud The Antichrist (VIDEO) – ““We shouldn’t judge” has turned into turning a blind eye to deception.. it now keeps us from acknowledging the schemes of our enemy- who masquerades AS ONE OF US. Some of yall desperately need to open your Bibles. So many in the church are lukewarm and need a wake up call. Satan is hard at work on the battlefield while the church takes a nap.” – Ashley Hays  – GOOD LISTEN FROM ASHLEY!!!

“The Iniquity of the Fathers” – “The scarcity of reasonable grownup men, possessing masculine virtues, produces multi-generational psychosocial problems.” – John Leake

SHOCK POLL: Nealy Half of Evangelical Christians No Longer Believe Christ Alone is the Only Path to Salvation… – “Too many people now think that all faiths are of equal value…” – Jim McCraigh

Our Republic—Traded For Fascism – “The United States is a fascist nation—more-so with each presidential administration. Privatization (handmaiden of fascism), a confluence of government/corporatism, destroyed the republic. But what caused privatization? The political turmoil upon us has its roots in economic causes. You can point to Nixon ending the gold standard in 1971, but we need to look further back, to what our founders gave us—industrial capitalism. ” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com

Are the Ukrainian peace talks a hoax? – “The so-called Ukrainian peace talks have puzzled me for sometime. For the conflict to be resolved requires Trump and Putin to work out an agreement between themselves, but this necessary meeting has not occurred. Trump has said repeatedly that he wants the issue resolved, but his terms have never been clear other than demanding a cease fire before the terms of the agreement are known. It is not clear that Trump has taken trouble to understand what Putin means by the root cause of the problem or that the real problem is the absence of a mutual security agreement between Russia and the West. Perplexingly, the “peace process” has been characterized by Trump blaming Putin for not accepting a cease-fire in place of a negotiated agreement and adding more Russian sanctions as a punishment. This has never struck me as indicating any seriousness on Trump’s part toward finding a solution, and it has puzzled me that Putin continues to see hope in such an unpromising process.” – Paul Craig Roberts

US strikes second alleged drug boat in a week, bringing death toll to 133 – “Strike appears to be first in Caribbean since November, with vast majority of recent strikes happening in the Pacific” – Dara Kerr

Demented: Councillor Pushes Kids To Send VALENTINE’S CARDS To Illegal Male Migrants – “Ignoring the RAPE EPIDEMIC. A Green Party councillor in the UK has sparked outrage by announcing plans to take her young grandchildren to deliver handmade Valentine’s Day cards to adult male asylum seekers at a migrant camp.” – Steve Watson

Mamdani and Newsom: The Democratic Party’s Fraternal Twins – “Mamdani and Newsom sell rival myths, but their shared model—big government fused with big corporate power—centralizes control, inflates costs, and leaves ordinary Americans paying the price.” – Edward Ring

Texas fights back: No ‘sharia city’ in the Lone Star State – “In a clear stand for law, sovereignty and the rule of American jurisdiction, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced a formal investigation into a potentially unlawful “sharia city” development in Kaufman County, warning that any attempt to establish a foreign-style enclave on Texas soil will not be tolerated.” – Amanda Bartolotta

African problems, African solutions: Traoré’s Burkina Faso sets the tone for a new African policy – “Ibrahim Traoré’s act leaves its mark on the international scene and reaffirms once again that Africa is and must be fully African.” – Lorenzo Maria Pacini

Lavrov Soberly Acknowledged The Challenges Posed By Trump 2.0 – “He calmly acknowledged that it’s now more difficult for Russia to advance its foreign policy goals due to the US’ renewed attempt to dominate the global economy through coercion and force, but he still believes that BRICS will play a pivotal role in furthering the global systemic transition to multipolarity.” – Andrew Korybko

Munich Security Conference Evangelizes European War – “The Munich Security Conference has kicked off, and not surprisingly the Brussels nomenklatura and its attendant apparatchiks and media flacks are pushing war hysteria. The purpose of this is to make the Ukrainian conflict feel existential to Europeans to jawbone them into parting with their dwindling eurobucks for the sake of bleeding Russia as much as possible.” – Simplicius

 

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Is the Fed Intervening Because An AI-Induced Depression is Just Around the Corner? – “Something doesn’t add up. We are told that the economy is doing great. Indeed, the official metrics from the Fed suggest that U.S. GDP is currently clocking in at an annualized rate of 4%. And yet… despite this, the Fed is already cutting rates AND printing $40 billion per month and using the money to buy U.S. debt. To put those actions into perspective, the Fed usually does this during recessions to cushion the economic fallout. Why is the Fed doing this? If the economy is so great, why does the Fed need to intervene as if we’re already in a recession? The CEO of Microsoft’s AI division, Mustafa Suleyman, seems to have an answer… – most of the tasks will be fully automated by an AI within the next 12 to 18 months”” – Graham Summers, MBA

Beef Prices Hit Record Highs, but Trump Has a Plan to Cut Costs – “Will the president’s latest executive order hurt American farmers?” – Elizabeth Lawrence  – DOESN’T HE ALWAYS HAVE A PLAN!!!!

The Affordability Crisis and the UniParty’s Inflation Shell Game – “Here’s one of the greatest certainties facing every household in America beyond the proverbial prospect of death and taxes: Namely, the monthly electric bill, as it arrives like clockwork either in the mail or by auto pay. And, according to Grok 4, there are approximately 143 million customers getting a metered bill each month. Needless to say, the political hot potato of “affordability” does very much come to mind when you take a gander at the CPI electricity graph below. On a nationwide basis, electric bills rose by +6.7% during the first twelve months of the Donald’s second term, and that was just more of the same punishment to household budgets that has been underway since February 2020.” – David Stockman

Big Losses for Banks Coming in 2026 (VIDEO) with Charles Nenner – “The next big downward surprise for the economy is big losses for the banks. Nenner predicts, “The institutions I work with that are selling real estate in New York are telling me a lot of banks are already negative. If you look in their books in California, they already had these big losses. They did not get out of their bonds because they thought interest rates would never go up. There are a lot of things that are already wrong, but it has not come out yet.” – Greg Hunter

A new mortgage crisis is quietly hitting those who can least afford it – “This week, there was yet another warning that many homeowners might be headed for trouble.” – Michelle Singletary

Silver Holding the 70s — And This Time May Actually Be Different – “Watch the ratio… Silver is trading around $77, holding steady after the spike to $120 and the predictable slam that followed. Gold remains above $5,000, recently printing near $5,040. That puts the gold/silver ratio around 65. During the volatility flush, the ratio briefly expanded as silver was hit harder than gold. Now it has compressed back into the mid-60s. That compression matters. So while $77 feels like stabilization, structurally it looks more like absorption. The $120 move was emotional. The $77 hold is structural. And here’s the part people always say — usually incorrectly: This time is different.”” – Kerry Lutz

The True Value of Gold Beyond Price – “Gold doesn’t chase wealth—it preserves it. Its true value reaches far beyond the numbers in your wallet.” – The Macro Butler

Tether’s gold stash tops $23 billion as buying outpaces nation states, Jefferies says – “The Wall Street investment bank estimates the crypto firm holds at least 148 tonnes of physical gold holdings, joining top 30 global holders of bullion.” – Krisztian Sandor

 

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Bank Outages During Blackouts: What Really Happens – “Most people treat a blackout as a temporary hassle, the kind of thing you assume the utility company will sort out before the food in the fridge starts to spoil. You light a few candles, check your phone, maybe grumble about the inconvenience, and expect normal life to resume shortly. What rarely crosses anyone’s mind is how deeply the modern financial system depends on that steady flow of electricity. Your paycheck, your savings, and the balance you check on your banking app are not stacks of bills waiting patiently in a vault. They exist as digital entries stored in data centers, verified across networks, and updated in real time by infrastructure that quietly assumes the grid will always be there.” – Bob Rodgers

Liquor for Preppers: Which liquors are best to stockpile for preparedness? – “In a long-term disaster—think months or years without reliable stores, power, or normal life—liquor becomes more than just something to sip. It turns into a real asset with multiple practical uses. From trading with others who need a break from the stress, to basic medical and cleaning needs, to just helping everyone stay level-headed, alcohol is one of those smart items to include in a solid preparedness plan.” – Off The Grid  – AS ACTOR ROBERT SHAW AS  ROMER TREECE IN THE MOVIE  “THE DEEP” SAYS; “RUM ISN’T DRINKING, RUM IS SURVIVING”!!!!!!!!!!!

THE BIG PICTURE

Full-Out, Digitized Technocratic Rule Is not Around the Corner, It Is Next Door – “While most are only reading or watching headlines, and being completely distracted from the real agendas, concentrating on ‘mass shootings,’ the Epstein files, evil political figures, manipulated weather events, the U.S. military shooting down party balloons, Trump’s multiple lawsuits against everyone, Trump’s takeover of other countries, domestic war and the fake “war on drugs,” transgender madness, and right and left propaganda, this country and the world are in the middle of a monstrous transformation from what is mis-labeled as a ‘democratic’ constitutional republic, to a full out technocratic prison.” – Gary D. Barnett

The Courage to be Kind – “In an increasingly more competitive world, where people more and more reduce themselves to the number on their bank account, it seems to me that being kind to others is more important than ever. By being kind you let that mask of the busy, ambitious career man slip. For one moment you’re just a human being who is kind to another. Without any of the fancy titles and tools you use to distance yourself from them” – Essaystential  – THIS WAS WRITTEN BY A YOUNG MAN WHO IS 16 AND STARTED  A SUBSTACK.

From Leaks to Files: The Undeniable Proof Jeffrey Epstein Served Israeli Interests – And Why the Press Blames Everyone Else – Robert Inlakesh

All Eyes on YOU: A Christian Response to America’s Coming Surveillance State – “It’s a familiar refrain, yet more surveillance rarely prevents tragedy. It simply ensures the state has omniscience after the fact. The cure is always more control, and the cycle never ends. When a population is frightened or angry enough, they stop asking why and start demanding answers. The government is always happy to step in and save us from ourselves, offering an all-knowing, all-seeing, all-powerful cure for the very disease it facilitated in the first place.” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

Regulatory Capture 301: From Enforcement to Exemption: The New Administrative State – “While You’re Watching the Headlines, They’re Rewriting the Rules. The Point of No Return: How C-9 and C-15 Redefine the Rule of Law in Canada” – Connie Shields

ICE Masks Up in More Ways Than One – “Feds could be in your group chat. Homeland security is increasing the use of undercover techniques to infiltrate and interact with social media users in order to collect intelligence and target individuals, documents leaked to me reveal. The new program, called “masked engagement,” allows homeland security officers to assume false identities and interact with users—friending them, joining closed groups, and gaining access to otherwise private postings, photographs, friend lists and more.” – Ken Klippenstein

Can the MAHA Movement Overcome the Influence of Big Wireless? – “Last month, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) confirmed the agency is undertaking a study on the impact of electromagnetic radiation emitted by modern cell phones. This is part of President Trump’s Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda. However, the influence of Big Wireless corporations and friendly regulators—such as Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr—threatens to undermine efforts to revisit the science around mobile devices.” – Derrick Broze

The Mafia Doctrine in Full Effect (VIDEO) with Max Blumenthal – “Netanyahu is in DC to tank Iran talks and drag Trump into a regional war—and Murdoch media is flooding the zone with Ziocons like Nikki Haley to push him over the edge. Trump sends carriers, Rubio pulls strings, and the sane voices are locked out. Meanwhile, Venezuela’s acting president is being blackmailed with secret indictments while the Trump admin smiles and steals her country’s oil. Cuba is under a genocidal siege—no fuel, children dying—and Rubio won’t even acknowledge their government exists. Russia and China are watching. ” – Judge Andrew Napolitano / Judging Freedom  – GOOD LISTEN WITH MAX AS USUAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sure, Take That Time-Out – “By shutting down the government for a minimum of ten days supposedly over funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Wile E. Coyote Democratic Party is about to blow up another Acme bomb in its mangy muzzle. For at least ten days of the shutdown, the senators will have to explain why proving that you are a citizen to vote is a bad idea — or conversely, why allowing non-citizens to vote is a good idea. So, thanks, Democrats, for sending the senators home to face their voters.” – James Howard Kunstler

Operation Metro Surge Immigration Crackdown in Minnesota Ends, Why? – “Color me skeptical of the reasons given.’ -Mish

Bad Bunny vs. Turning Point USA – “Nothing but super choices. In America 2.0, our Super Bowls feature 80 percent Black players. At least. This year was a bit of a modern anomaly, as both starting quarterbacks were White. The jock sniffing “journalists” don’t like that one bit. The game this year was incredibly boring. No big plays. No “stars” on either team. And the halftime act has become so overhyped that it often draws more attention than the game itself. But this year, the NFL and its esteemed producer Jay-Z vowed to come up with something even more offensive to White people. As the Black iconoclast Jason Whitlock says, Black people have been conditioned to like whatever makes White people upset. And especially what Donald Trump doesn’t like. So they found a Latino rapper named Bad Bunny. This Bad Bunny-Turning Point USA contest exemplifies the phony Left-Right paradigm, which continues to entice millions and coerce them into voting. With either of those choices, some U.S. leader is going to be, perhaps literally, holding the chair for Bibi Netanyahu. Whether the subpar “entertainment” is in Spanish or Ebonics, it’s being pushed and produced by the same non-Irish elite we’ve come to know and love. Sure, they have front man Jay-Z in this case, whose own shady past includes stabbing a record executive in 1999, a crime for which he was sentenced to three years probation. There are “installed” DEI puppets like Jay-Z throughout this ghettoized culture. The NFL is doing all it can to destroy itself. What kind of business model is it to consistently offend your primary demographic?” – Donald Jeffries – GOOD READ FROM DONALD!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump Gives Iran A Deadline For War That Roughly Corresponds With The End Of Ramadan – “Either way, it appears that a final showdown with Iran is coming. With each passing day, we get closer to the fateful moment when the missiles will start flying. We are being told that the U.S. buildup that we are witnessing in the Middle East right now is “unprecedented in scale”…” – Michael Snyder

I DON’T RECOGNIZE MY AMERICA ANYMORE! – “America is swimming with sharks, and the water is filled with blood. There are two deadly species, Jihadists and Marxists––aka Liberals––and they always work together. Not one of the Muslim Reps in Congress is a Republican. All are aligned with Stalinist Democrats (i.e., Communists). All were elected from areas where thousands of Islamists were planted by Barack Hussein Obama and Joseph Biden, the goal being to embrace globalism by compromising the America they hate.” – Kelleigh Nelson

Boasberg Wants Illegal Venezuelans Back to the U.S.–On Our Dime. – “In a full circle moment, and nearly one year after his infamous demand to return illegal Venezuelans already on plane out of U.S. airspace last year, Judge Boasberg again orders their return.” – Julie Kelly

Orban Is Right: Ukraine Has Truly Become Hungary’s Enemy – “It’s also the enemy of Europe’s conservative-nationalists, who’d be left leaderless if Kiev and Brussels succeed in ‘democratically deposing’ Orban during early April’s next parliamentary elections and replacing his leadership of their movement with a collection of anti-Russian Polish figures.” – Andrew Korybko

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Jobs Are Growing, Breitbart? – Narratives are seductive, and no one should consider themselves immune. Even alternative media outlets are at times guilty of peddling propaganda and not news. Sadly, Breitbart has served up a telling example of this, with John Carney’s puff piece about how well labor markets are doing under Trump.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Schooling The Donald On The BLS Jobs Scam – “There is nothing like a Jobs Wednesday report to remind you that the Donald is utterly clueless when it comes to economic reality. He got a report card for January that shows during his first 12 months, the US economy did not generate a single new job in the goods producing sector! That’s right. The jobs figure (SA) for the combined manufacturing, construction, mining and energy sectors (blue line) for January 2026 was 21,501,000, which was actually 58,000 below where it stood in January 2025 (21,559,000).It is thus hard to see how those “big beautiful tariffs” have generated the boom constantly ballyhooed by the White House. For crying out loud: The jobs count in the entire US industrial economy has been shrinking for the entire past year! ” – David Stockman

Silver slammed in thin trade – “Evidence is mounting that the silver shorts on Comex and London are desperate to close their positions. Will they use the Chinese New Year holiday to this end? In this report, we focus on silver, illustrating how silver derivatives on Comex and London are becoming irrelevant. This is because price discovery has moved to Shanghai, whose premiums are leading to physical metal being drained out of Comex and London vaults. But next week, with Shanghai closed for business, expect even greater price distortions in the days ahead. Indeed, Shanghai is closed as of now.” – Alasdair Macleod  – LINKED ABOUT THIS AS WELL AS YESTERDAY IN KING WORLD NEWS ARTICLE ABOUT THE CHINESE MARKET BEING DOWN FOR THE LUNAR NEW YEAR!!!

Homeownership “Wealth” Is a Fallacy – “It seems the housing market is destined to be the target of yet another administration’s clumsy tinkering. In another quiet-part-out-loud incident at the White House recently, the president was asked whether he would declare a national emergency in order to act on housing affordability. Trump responded that he doesn’t want house prices to go down because home valuations are such a large part of the “net worth” of homeowners, especially those in “their later years.” All of the aforementioned bad ideas rest on a flawed assumption—that housing is a financial investment. It isn’t, and never was. Housing is an asset that is essentially a consumption good. It is consumed each day by living in the house and all that entails. The community within which the home exists—and close relationships have been formed—can’t lightly be swapped out for another. Further, significant expense is incurred in maintenance, property taxes, insurance, and capital expenditures that forestall physical depreciation. From a simple numerical perspective, the idea of growing one’s wealth through home price appreciation is absurd. ” – Artis Shepherd

15 DIY Instant Soup Mixes – “The great thing about instant soups is that most of them are as easy to make as a cup of tea. They may not pack a lot of calories, but on a cold day or when you actually have a cold they can be a welcome addition to your diet. One of the primary benefits of adding instant soups to your food storage is that they tend to have a long shelf-life and are inexpensive to put together. Variety is sometimes a challenge with long-term food storage and instant soups can create a lot of flavor options for a potentially monotonous menu.” – Steve Nubie

That deep, steady rest doesn’t just feel earned—it turns out it’s supported by real science.” – Bill Heid

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I’m a woman’s man, no time to talk
Music loud and children warm
I’ve been a pedophile since I was born

And now it’s all right, it’s okay
And you may look the other way
We can try to understand
The Devil’s effect on man

Whether you’re a believer or whether you’re a deceiver
I’m still alive, still alive
Feel the city breaking and everybody shaking
And I’m still alive, still alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, still alive, still alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, still alive
Oh, when you walk

THE BIG PICTURE

The Coming Constitutional Ice Age – “Last fall during the opening of the United Nations in New York City, I recognized the face of a federal officer from his days working in law enforcement in New Jersey and mine as a trial judge. We chatted and I asked him what he was doing. He told me he worked for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE. I asked what ICE has to do with the U.N., and he told me that soon ICE will be everywhere. When I asked if ICE has become a paramilitary force, answerable to the White House, he just smiled, as if to say, “Don’t quote me.” When I asked him why he was carrying two handguns and an AK-47 automatic rifle, he laughed and said, “I have more than you can see, judge!” Since then, the president has used ICE to fulfill his promise of aggressive enforcement of immigration laws while cutting constitutional corners —” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

The Expanding Orbit of ICE’s Surveillance Machine – “Blurred lines.” – Corey Smith

The Epstein Unredacted Files Make Pizzagate Look Like Pizza Hut – “Remember Pizzagate? Remember when half the country lost their minds over a conspiracy theory about a DC pizza parlor running a child trafficking ring out of a basement that didn’t exist? When some lunatic showed up with an AR-15 to “investigate”? When the entire media establishment spent months using it as exhibit A for why conspiracy theorists are dangerous nutjobs who need to be deplatformed, censored, and medicated? Well. Turns out the real pedophile network wasn’t hiding in some imaginary basement. It was cruising on yachts. Partying at Mar-a-Lago. Flying on private jets. And the man currently occupying the Oval Office has his name appearing nearly one million times in the unredacted Epstein files. One. Million. Times.” – Lily-Rose Dawson

Bad Bunny, MAGA, and the Destruction of Puerto Rico – “MAGA denounces victims of US imperialism as “fake Americans. Jake Paul called Bad Bunny, aka Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, a “fake American.” Paul is a boxer, influencer, actor, and racist Islamophobe. Ocasio had the temerity to sing in Spanish. Paul and MAGA were outraged, as were thousands of incensed others who posted to social media after the headline performance. “Let’s rally together and show big corporations they can’t just do whatever they want without consequences,” Paul tweeted. “Turn off this halftime. A fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America.” Ocasio is an American citizen. Puerto Ricans have held US citizenship since the 1917 Jones-Shafroth Act, but we can’t expect the followers of MAGA to know much about history, the law, and the brutal track record of colonialism. MAGA may not like it, but Spanish is the second most spoken language in the United States. More than 59 million people in America speak Spanish. More people speak Spanish than French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Arabic, and other languages combined.”- Kurt Nimmo  – KURT BRINGS UP SOME GOOD POINTS HERE!!!!

Flaming Attorney General Blondi Lights Congress on Fire for Daring to Question her – “”It’s criminal. She’s broken the law,” Representative Massie says of DoJ head Pam Bondi” – David Haggith

Watch: Bondi Explodes Over Epstein During Shouting Match With Massie And Top Dems – “The fireworks began when Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) pressed Bondi on whether DOJ has indicted or is investigating any of Epstein’s alleged co-conspirators, citing what he called “concrete evidence of disgusting criminality” in recently released files. Bondi attempted to sidestep the question; when Nadler repeated it, she raised her voice and insisted she would “answer the question the way I want to answer the question,” talking over Nadler as colleagues tried to intercede. As the exchange escalated, Bondi pivoted away from Epstein entirely – invoking the Dow, S&P and Nasdaq and touting retirement accounts.” – Tyler Durden  – REALLY, WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH THE DOJ AND  THE ATTORNEY GENERAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We Have Now Reached “Gunperson” Level Absurdity – “Another day, another NOBODY-WANTS-TO-SAY-IT tragedy. By now you’ve surely heard about Tuesday’s horrific school shooting in Tumbler Ridge—a tiny, remote Canadian town. It’s the deadliest mass shooting Canada has seen in more than thirty years. Within minutes of the rampage, alerts went out describing the suspect as a “female in a dress.” The minute I saw that, I knew. I mean, have you ever—even once—seen an alleged perpetrator described as a “male in pants” or a “female wearing shoes?” Of course not! It’s “armed female” or “adult male” or, if the subject is still on the loose, maybe “a white male in a neon green hoodie and purple parachute pants.” But never-not-ever is it “a human in human clothing.” They only threw the dress part in there to avoid stating a politically inconvenient fact, upsetting advertisers, or toppling their own carefully constructed narrative.” – Jenna McCarthy  – YEP, HOW DARE  YOU SAY IT WAS A TRANS PERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The media will tell you the current U.S. military and diplomatic posture in the Caribbean is about Venezuela, Maduro, and “regional stability.” That’s the kindergarten version. What’s really happening is a three-front strategic reset: 1. 🇻🇪 Venezuela — the collapsing Chinese-aligned regime 2. 🇨🇺 Cuba — the ideological prize vulnerable for the first time since 1959 3. 🇵🇦 Panama — the canal the U.S. is quietly negotiating to take back This is the most consequential geopolitical window the United States has had in the Western Hemisphere in 40 years.” – Kerry Lutz  – MISSED THIS ONE WHEN IT CAME OUT A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. GOOD ARTICLE!!!

The ‘Good Deal’ Lie – “Other governments have no interest in accepting Trump’s demands for their surrender. The president continues to pretend to favor a diplomatic solution with Iran: Every aggressor would prefer that the other side yields everything without a fight, so it doesn’t mean anything when the president says that a deal is his “preference.” No doubt he would also prefer that Denmark hands over Greenland without any resistance. Trump’s preference, as always, is for the domination and the humiliation of other nations.” – Daniel Larison

130,000 Jobs Added. One Million Jobs Erased. – “The Jobs Recession Isn’t Over Yet” – Peter Nayland Kust

What About Employment? – “Well here it is folks….. Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 130,000 in January, and the unemployment rate changed little at 4.3 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Job gains occurred in health care, social assistance, and construction, while federal government and financial activities lost jobs. ADP reported a tepid headline number with nearly all of it in health care. That was followed by this out of BLS which surprisingly confirmed it: Health care added 82,000 jobs in January, with gains in ambulatory health care services (+50,000), hospitals (+18,000), and nursing and residential care facilities (+13,000). Job growth in health care averaged 33,000 per month in 2025. We should rename that “health-related financial extraction services” because I assure you that there were not 82,000 new nurses and doctors minted last month. Indeed only about 200,000 nurses graduate and receive their RNs annually and of course some people retire too so that’s not net adds, its gross degrees granted. When an economy becomes this unbalanced as an ever-increasing number over the space of decades bad things are going to happen.” – Karl Denninger

7 Things That Will Happen When the Economy Collapses – “An economic collapse can take several forms, but most have a few things in common. Some start out as a prolonged recession that erodes the economic foundation over time. Whereas others, like the start of the Great Depression and the collapse of the Soviet Union, seemed to happen quickly. Even if the signs of eminent failure had been on the horizon for months or years in advance. History shows the same warning signs appearing again and again.

THE BIG PICTURE

How Do I Find Meaning in Life? – “Finding purpose in our days” – Kate Dreston  – GOOD ONE FROM KATE ONCE AGAIN!!!

The Politics of Hate: Weaponized Discord Is the Deep State’s Most Effective Tool – “”This country was built on the radical idea that government exists to serve the people—not to control them, monitor them, manage them, or rule over them. That idea is being systematically dismantled by a Deep State determined to entrench its power at our expense by keeping the nation divided, distracted, and perpetually at war with itself. What we are witnessing in America today is a deliberate effort to rebrand cruelty as strength, division as patriotism, and hatred as love of country. – John & Nisha Whitehead

Americans Have Abandoned (Lost) All Logic and Reason – “In today’s world considering the U.S., logic, reason, and common sense have been abandoned, and replaced with ignorance, dependency, and indifference; all to such a degree as to have made impotent the intellect of Americans. Critical thinking and acting on that solid premise, have completely disappeared in favor of desertion of reality, truth, and moral behavior. We in this country are in the midst of a hell on earth. This hell is all-consuming, as it covers every aspect of life and being. It is at once economic, financial, personal, restrictive, immoral, aggressive, and revolting; all while global technocratic rule is pursued with unlimited nocuous vigor. This is not organic at any level whatsoever, it has been a long-term, pre-planned takeover of the hearts, minds, and souls of the masses in order to build a global oligarchical totalitarian system of rule, fully dependent on a master/slave relationship where the few rule and totally control the many. Basically everything coming from this heinous government, all of the mainstream media, and much of the ‘alternative’ media are lies.” – Gary D. Barnett

The Epstein Files are making us “conspiracy theorists” look bad. …and maybe that’s the point. – “The entire focus of the alternate media has been consumed with picking over the Epstein files looking for breadcrumbs of evidence to support mental pictures of Satanic Zionist Demonic blood rituals and turning toddlers into jerky. It’s gotten to the point where it’s actually making us “conspiracy theorists” – who have an almost unblemished record of being on the right side of history – look rather hysterical. It’s discrediting anti-establishment thinkers. You’d be forgiven for thinking the files been constructed to serve that exact purpose.” – Kit Knightly

Abortion Was The Leading Cause Of Death In 2025, 73 Million Around The World, US Leads The Way – “This is the seventh consecutive year abortion was the leading cause of death worldwide. Hypocrisy abounds as the evil hypocrites cry and shout about genocide and pedophilia, as they throw their murdered children into a garbage can and use those fetal tissues to act as cell cultures for live attenuated vaccines.” – The WinePress

Shh…Your city is recording your conversations: Flock’s new AI-powered audio sensors quietly installed in thousands of communities nationwide – “The shift represents a new stage in the normalization of mass monitoring.” – Leo Hohmann

Congress Suspects ATF Has Gun Registry With 1.1 Billion Records – “A group of 27 members of Congress, led by Representative Michael Cloud of Texas are sounding the alarm on the expansion of ATF’s illegal registry of guns and gun owners. According to a recently released letter, addressed to ATF Deputy Director Robert Cedaka, ATF has not responded to a previous inquiry regarding the expansion of the registry. These Congressmen are concerned that ATF may now have over a billion records in their registry.” – Aidan Johnston

National Cancer Institute studying ivermectin’s ‘ability to kill cancer cells,’ alarming career scientists – “This is not a story. It’s a manufactured insinuation. The NIH routinely screens thousands of compounds for preliminary anticancer activity. It’s a non news story. Seeing whether a compound kills cancer cells in a petri dish is the bottom rung of the evidence ladder.” – Jason Locasale on X  – GOOD POINT, BUT AT LEAST THEY ARE STARTING TO LOOK AT CLAIMS A LITTLE BIT MORE SERIOUSLY, PERHAPS!!!

Chlorine Dioxide, Cancer, and Oral Health – “Oral hygiene isn’t just about avoiding cavities; the condition of the mouth is an early warning system for systemic inflammation and metabolic disorders. In fact, chronic oral infections create a biochemical environment that supports the very processes underlying cancer formation. Oral inflammation, gingivitis, and periodontitis are an invisible highway to cancer. The underlying causes of periodontal disease are infectious agents such as viruses, bacteria, spirochetes, amoebas, and fungi. Periodontitis reflects the macroclimate of the entire body.” – Dr. Sircus

Force-Masker Newsom Told Forced-Unmasking Isn’t Lawful – “The Clown show just got funnier. Gavin Newsom – the governor of California, who was a fierce pusher of forcing ordinary people to wear “masks” during the late hysteria over “COVID” – just got slapped down by a federal court over his recent attempt to require the un-masking of ICE goons. Both forms of forced-masking (and forced un-masking) served political purposes. Forcing ordinary people to “mask up” – the hipster way it was put, as if it were a cool thing to do – was done to make it appear there was a “pandemic” afoot. It was a way to compel people to look as if they agreed with the narrative; a form of forced speech, in other words. It also served to demoralize people because it is demoralizing to be forced to do something silly and degrading, like walking around in public looking like a mental patient. It also served to paint a target on the backs of the few who refused to go along with it. Their unmasked faces were also a form of speech. Of protest against the narrative. Newsom was one of the worst when it came to pushing mask-wearing on everyone else (he excepted himself and his friends, of course; ” – Eric Peters

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Creepy Circles of Corruption and Perversion – “But decency refuses to die. The one thing all of Jeffrey Epstein’s clients undoubtedly have in common is a contempt for socialism. There is good reason for that. Socialists shoot pedophiles.” – Ohio Barbarian  – THE BARBARIAN’S WEEKLY RECAP. GOOD AS USUAL!!!

The Zionist Money Changers Have Never Had Their Own Country or Civilization – “They have been persecuted because of their wickedness. Not as a victim – but as a source of evil. Soviet Union. China. America. All while weeping for themselves. All while revealing they hate the goyim. All while revealing – they aren’t Jews, they aren’t Christians, they aren’t Muslims, Buddhists, Hindi, or any society known to man. They are Satan’s minions. Hijacking the term Jew as of the 17th century in the King James Bible 1611 AD. Nothing more – nothing less. This past week, Netanyahu went on a tirade against any nation who dares to allow ‘anti-Semitism’ – claiming they will be ‘sorry’ unless they rein in the people and punish them for their opinion which in his world means the worst torture imaginable. And our government seems willing to – comply. ” – Helena Glass

 -The Housing Affordability Trap—Why POTUS Is Up Sh*t Creek Without A Paddle – “Donald Trump sure has a strange approach to making housing more “affordable”. He apparently wants lower costs for buyers and higher prices for owners and sellers! Needless to say, as the Donald’s scrambles about seeking housing affordability “solutions”, we’d rather suspect that higher house prices are not quite what the economic doctor ordered. ” – David Stockman

TrumpRx Is The Latest Trump Scam, Built On False Promises Of Cheaper Drugs But Costing More Than Direct From The Manufacturer – “However, since its launch, some people have pointed out that many of the drugs on offer are not cheaper and many in fact are noticeably more so versus direct from the manufacturer. Also worth noting is that the website, so far, does not offer generic medications, only name-brand ones, which are going to cost more. As pointed out by The New Republic: Almost all of the drugs are also covered through insurance already. One X user fact-checked Trump’s claim Thursday that TrumpRx will lower the cost of inhalers from $458 to $51. In reality, clicking on the link on TrumpRx redirects the user to the manufacturer’s website to see if the buyer qualifies for hardship discounts. As the user pointed out, these discounts are available regardless of whether TrumpRx is involved.” – The WinePress

But last week— after Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. got 18 states to ban SNAP purchases of products like soda, candy, and processed snacks— PepsiCo announced price cuts of up to 15% on Doritos, Lay’s, Tostitos, and other Frito-Lay products.

Big Beautiful Bill Eats America – “Workers wages are being devoured, and the economy is shrinking because of it. President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill has managed to raise the federal debt another $700-billion dollars just during the first four months of his existence in the present fiscal year. Bill did this by handing massive tax breaks to billionaires while helping drive inflation and interest costs and also by leaving about 10-million more middle-class people without health insurance.

THE BIG PICTURE

Epstein’s Island And The Gateway To The Psychology Of Evil – “Conspiracy theorists are almost always right. We have been proved right time and time again and we will continue to be right about many things that the corporate media used to call “fringe.” For those out there who are like me; people who have been trying to warn the public about these threats for 20 years or more, I just want to say: We have won a resounding victory. We brought the dark secrets of the elites into the mainstream and there’s nothing that can stop this train now. However, the fight is far from over and don’t expect anyone to give you any awards or even recognition. It’s the nature of our work, and frankly, the best thing that can happen in the long run is that researchers and analysts like us eventually become obsolete. In the meantime, the infowar to save civilization continues. One issue I have spearheaded in my career (along with a handful of other liberty writers) is delving into the psychology and ideology of the globalists. I find their existence to be fascinating. Revolting to be sure, but also fascinating.” – Brandon Smith

The Walls They’re Building Aren’t for Our Safety – “We are part of the disposable class. Despite the pathetic lack of accountability, the Epstein files changed the calculus. What used to be dismissed as a niche conspiracy theory turned out to be a global system of trafficking involving people at the top. When a secret that large is proven true, the “mad” theories start to look plausible. What other huge lies are we being told? What else exists behind the curtain? We see a pattern now. A group of powerful people shape the world to fit their needs. They tell the public to “move on” while they build doomsday bunkers in remote locations, private security forces, and tech replacements for human labor. The amazing thing is they are building all this right in the open, and we’re like, “nah, they cant really be planning for half of us to die, are they?” Yes. The audacious goals of the elites are real. You better fucking believe it.” – Sarah Connor

Project In Humanity – “What if a large group of unwitting geoengineers have been implementing a global project that alters the climate and modifies the weather in a misguided and misinformed attempt to advance civilization?” – James Roguski

Jade Helm: Fact or Fiction? – “In 2015, long before Jade Helm became a buzzword online, many of us noticed military activity that did not follow the usual patterns they were accustomed to seeing. It wasn’t announced through national briefings or clearly explained to the people living in the affected areas. Instead, information surfaced slowly through local observations and eventually through leaked documents that raised more questions than they answered. This slow and unclear rollout was the real spark. Military exercises are nothing new, and most people understand the need for training. What unsettled many Americans was the lack of transparency, combined with the scale of the operation and the type of units involved. Jade Helm officially wrapped up in September 2015, but something important did not end with it. The exercise normalized the idea that large-scale domestic military movement could happen quietly, with limited public explanation, and still be defended after the fact as routine.” – Kate L. Gilmour  – SOME MAY NOT REMEMBER THIS, BUT IT WAS ALL THE BUZZ ON THE INTERNET IN PREPAREDNESS CIRCLES. IT WAS A TEST TO GET US USE TO THE MILITARY BEING USED ON THE COUNTRY’S OWN CITIZENS. SOUND FAMILIAR, SUCH AS ICE IN MINNESOTA AND ELSEWHERE!!!

THE DEEPER DIVE: The Epstein Files Betray the Government’s Many Reasons for the Coverup – “The more that is released, the more we know how much remains to be released and the more we see how the wrong stuff has been redacted in past releases while stuff that should have been redacted wasn’t” – David Haggith

I Know Victoria’s Secret: Israel, Les Wexner & CIA Operation Long Leash [Pizzagate Part 6] – “Well, we finally figured out what Victoria’s secret is, and it sure isn’t what we could have guessed…” – Agent131711  – AGENT131711 CONTINUES THE DEEP DIVE INTO EPSTEIN AND ASSOCIATES!!!

Today’s Epstein’s Records Destroy Official Narratives – “Today’s revelations are a paper trail of conspiracy theories turned conspiracy fact. We knew about the horrific paedophilia and human trafficking. But if that wasn’t enough, now there’s missing jail footage, industrial quantities of acid, and an FBI document casually referencing a decoy dead body. Not rumors, not screenshots, not internet lore. Actual documents. Actual records. The kind of thing we were told for years did not exist. Someone call you crazy for suggesting this photo of Epstein may not have been him? Now you can show them this:” – Quoth the Raven

Epstein Files: Thomas Massie Is Poking Holes in the DOJ – “More and more are feeling like the DOJ is not fully complying with the release of Epstein Files. Yesterday, Congressman Thomas Massie and Congressman Ro Khanna went to the DOJ and spent two hours viewing what were supposed to be unredacted Epstein Files. What they ultimately found was that 70% to 80% of the files were redacted by the FBI before they even got to the DOJ. They also found that the DOJ has not necessarily been complying with their redaction tactics as per the law. Massie and Khanna suggest this may be to protect the rich and powerful involved.” – The Pulse  – GOOD FOR MR. MASSIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This Isn’t Freedom, It’s Madness – “Trump and Hegseth Call for a Bigger Iron Cross. Self-styled Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is on an “arsenal of freedom” tour, notes Lisa Savage, as he extolls the alleged virtues of building more and more deadly weapons. President Dwight D. Eisenhower had a ready answer to such arrant nonsense. In 1953, Ike famously declared that the pursuit of weapons would leave humanity crucified on a cross of iron. Ike knew the horrors of war; Hegseth knows nothing except his own will to power.” -Bill Astore

The military just murdered two more people at sea: The latest strike brings the death toll from the murder spree to at least 130 since the lawless killing started last September” – Daniel Larison

Civil War 2: “Neighbors” vs. N****rs – “”Neighbor” is the left’s latest label to signal friend-enemy distinction. “Neighbor” is the new “comrade”. Bolshevik agitators are using the term neighbor to protect their illegal immigrant allies. In contrast, they smear their enemies with the worst possible slurs that they would cancel anyone else for uttering. Minnesota provides many examples of this subversion. A Somali who just got off the plane from Mogadishu to participate in Learing Center fraud is a good “neighbor”. An African-American ICE officer who arrests illegals is a house n*****r. Communists hate nothing more than a minority who does not obey their communism.” – Yuri Bezmenov

Zuckerberg Follows Billionaire Exodus To Florida As California Pushes New Wealth Tax – “Once again, the pattern is familiar: raise taxes in California, and watch the private jets head east. Mark Zuckerberg may soon be adding Miami to his ever-growing list of luxury addresses. According to people familiar with his plans, the Meta founder and his wife, Priscilla Chan, are exploring a home on Indian Creek Island—an ultra-exclusive, heavily guarded neighborhood often called “Billionaire Bunker”, according to Bloomberg. The tiny island is already packed with famous residents, including Jeff Bezos, Tom Brady, Jared Kushner, and Ivanka Trump.” – Tyler Durden

Middle East on the brink of war: Why US-Iran talks may be the last chance for peace – “As war clouds gather over Iran, will Hezbollah and the Houthis step in to defend Tehran?” – Elizabeth Blade

Trump signs executive order quadrupling beef imports from Argentina – “The main group representing American cattle ranchers has said the increase in imports is a “misguided effort” and will damage the “livelihoods of American cattlemen and women, while doing little to impact the price consumers are paying at the grocery store.”” – Olivia Rinaldi

Eye On Iran: Pentagon Held Live-Fire War Drills In Persian Gulf – Tyler Durden

A US-led regime-change operation in Iran would be tantamount to a declaration of war on China and here’s why – Leo Hohmann

Gun Owner Denied Firearm By ATF For Claiming “God Given Rights” – “A member of Gun Owners of America was recently denied a firearm by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) for writing “exercise my God given right” as their reason for manufacturing the firearm. Our member wasn’t doing anything illegal; they were not attempting to manufacture something that was banned in their state of residence. They weren’t building anything that is banned federally, and they were complying with all regulations set forth by ATF during the registration process. Even though no statute or regulation requires it, ATF’s Form 1, Box 4(i) demands that gun owners “specify why you intend to make [a] firearm.” As a law-abiding US citizen with no criminal record, you don’t need a reason to purchase or manufacture a firearm. That’s what the Second Amendment is for. Yet ATF denied our member’s application for this exact reason.” – Gun Owners of America

The US Weaponized Russophobic Paranoia & Energy Geopolitics To Capture Control Of Europe – “It’s unimaginable that the US would allow any competitor to reduce its enormous new market share in the European energy industry, which it plans to further expand to make Europe even more dependent on it, and that the US wouldn’t weaponize this if Europe ever defies it on anything of significance.” – Andrew Korybko

Europe’s Triumvirate of Lame Stooges Faces Moment of Truth – “Beneath the feigned ‘Ukrainian solidarity’ and ‘European strength’ put-ons, Europe’s leaders are drowning in unprecedented crises. The leaders of all three major nations—Germany, UK, and France—are seeing the total collapse of their factions and rulership in general, as their approval ratings hit rock bottom.” – Simplicius

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Trump’s tariffs cost the average American household $1,000 last year – “New analysis shows Trump’s tariffs have pushed up US living costs, with consumers bearing most of the burden as the Supreme Court weighs the legality of the policy. The claim that foreign countries pay these tariffs is a myth. The data show the opposite: Americans are footing the bill,” – Amrita Carroll

More than 1 million homeowners are underwater on their mortgage — a 7-year high. Here’s what experts advise they do. – “Between the start and end of 2025, there was a 60% jump in the number of homeowners in a negative equity position” – Aarthi Swaminathan

Disappointing holiday season: December retail sales were flat, falling well short of estimate – Jeff Cox  – YOU THINK MAYBE THE REASON WAS BECAUSE MANY CONSUMERS HAD TO BORROW, EE BELOW!!!

Americans Borrowed A Lot to Pay for Christmas 2025 – “The Debt Black Hole got a little bigger as U.S. consumer debt unexpectedly surged in December. Americans apparently put a Christmas spending spree on Visa and Mastercard. Consumer debt climbed by $24 billion, a 5.7 percent increase, according to the latest data from the Federal Reserve.” – Mike Maharrey

K-Shaped Catastrophe: US Economy Continues To Collapse, January Job Losses Worst Since 2009, Seldom New Jobs Added, Consumers Fall Deeper Into Debt, As Trump Says ‘I’m Very Proud Of It’ – “Worse yet, there is a growing trend of “reverse recruiting,” with candidates paying recruiters to pair them with a job.” – The WinePress

So… is the Gold Boom Over?- “Foreign governments and central banks are sitting on $10+ trillion in foreign reserves— most of that parked in US dollars. Their “extra” gold purchases since 2022 (i.e. they amount of gold they bought each year above the historic average) only totals around $100 billion, i.e. roughly ONE PERCENT of their reserves. Would it be so crazy to assume that they might want to diversify TWO percent? Or maybe 5%? If so, there could be a LOT more money coming in to gold. And if a mere 1% of foreign reserves cause the gold price to skyrocket, how high will the gold price go if they park 5% or more? Again, this isn’t something that’s going to happen tomorrow. It’s a long-term trend. But the point is that the story hasn’t changed.” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

Dow 50,000 Was Just the Milestone — Here’s the Updated Target (and Why Silver Still Has Far More Upside) – Kerry Lutz

Gold and Silver – major new uptrend signaled (VIDEO) – “Using fresh charts of spot gold, spot silver and the US dollar, I walk through the parabolic uptrends, the recent “blow‑off” tops, and the key support zones where this correction is most likely to stabilize before the next big upleg. We also look at copper and the broader precious‑metals sector to see how they fit into the picture and why this pullback still appears to be a pause within a powerful long‑term bull market rather than the end of it.” – Clive Maund

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Escalation of Force: How to Choose the Appropriate Response to Potential Violence – ““I’ll just pull out my Glock/HK/Ruger and deal with those punks. Once they see their buddies drop, they’ll back off soon enough.” Things are never as cut-and-dried as people with 3-second solutions like to make them seem in the comments. You can’t escalate directly to lethal force in every situation.” – Daisy Luther

Tarp Shelters: The Best Lightweight Option for Backpacking, Hiking & Wilderness Survival – “Why Tarp Shelters make a good shelter for camping, hiking, and survival” – Off Grid Survival

The 100× Blackout Warning: Why Smart Homesteaders Are Rebuilding Their Power Plans Now – “When the Grid Gets Unreliable, Self-Reliance Stops Being a Hobby and Becomes a Lifeline Blackouts in the United States could be up to 100 times more common by 2030—and that single prediction should radically reshape how a serious homesteader thinks about power, backup, and daily life. If federal agencies are sounding alarm bells about grid reliability, you can safely assume the average household is nowhere near ready. The good news? You still have time to build a homestead power plan that actually works when the lights start flickering for real.” – Bill Heid

Very Small-Scale Manual Power Generation for Charging Essential Devices – “When people talk energy preparedness, they usually jump straight to solar arrays, fuel generators, and big battery banks. Those systems absolutely have a place. There’s a smaller tier of power that matters precisely because it’s boring: manual, human-powered charging for essential devices. It won’t run your home. It’s not meant to. Its purpose is to keep the tools that prevent isolation and confusion alive: radios, lights, phones used for maps/notes, and rechargeable battery packs.”‘ – denob

The Complete Guide to Finding the Best Generator for Home Use – “Power outages are becoming increasingly common across the United States, with consumers experiencing an average of 5½ hours of electricity interruptions annually. Whether caused by severe weather, grid failures, or natural disasters, losing power can mean spoiled food, uncomfortable temperatures, and disrupted daily life. A reliable home generator ensures your household stays powered, comfortable, and safe when the grid goes down.” – Ask A Prepper Staff

 

 

VERSES FOR THE DAY

Deuteronomy 18:10-12    There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.  Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.  For all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord: and because of these abominations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee.
