Who Runs The World? – “Taking a Closer Look at the Globalist Regime. Research points to 13 families, and the rest of humanity, it seems, is merely the audience, while they perform their theatre of propaganda. Shrouded in secrecy, they keep their true nature hidden behind carefully crafted myths, stories, and fictions; all of which the media dutifully spreads to keep the public misled. If you fear they will one day take over countries, understand this: they already have” – Jordan Nuttall

You Don’t Own Your Stocks – “Do me a favor. Open your brokerage app. Look at your shares. Your Apple. Your silver miners. Your index funds. Now here’s the fun part: you don’t own them. Not the way you think you do. The legal owner of nearly every share listed in America is a partnership you’ve never heard of. It’s called Cede & Co. It sits inside the Depository Trust Company in Lower Manhattan. On paper, and paper is what counts, Cede & Co. holds almost the entire US stock market. You own an IOU. The lawyers call it a “security entitlement.” Your broker owes you shares. Your broker’s custodian owes your broker. The Depository Trust Company (DTC) owes the custodian. You sit at the end of a long line of promises, 3 ledgers away from the actual asset.” – Sean Ring  – NOTHING IS AS IT SEEMS!!!!

America In Denial – “That Americans are in denial is not difficult to demonstrate. Consider climate change, a leading topic for decades, but a topic without robust discussion or debate around it. There has never been agreement that in judging possible climate change we should use all resources that can inform us about global temperature history. Not just data beginning with the industrial revolution, but data from 1000s of years, preserved in ice. Without that info, it’s impossible to assess whether climate change exists at all. Or what to do about it. Essential denial is not around climate, mRNA, Iran, or Ukraine. Instead, it’s denial and fear of discussion and facts. Consider Iran where the US/ Trump conducts no actual diplomacy.” – Erik@neverhadaboss.com

Harry and Meghan: return of the grifters – “Shunned by Hollywood A-listers and the American public alike, the gruesome twosome are coming back to Blighty. So after a six-year sojourn in southern California, Harry and Meghan – partners in crime in what I dubbed ‘the Grabdication’ – are heading back to Blighty. I don’t think we’ve missed them very much at all. Distance has not led to enchantment, and their tawdry antics have appeared less riveting as time goes by, from Meghan’s jam business to the reality TV shows to Harry’s charity scandals. As that very frank man from Spotify said of them: ‘“The Fucking Grifters” – that’s the podcast we should have launched with them.’” – Julie Burchill

How the EU is Controlling the Ceuta Story The Digital Services Act Affects Information Worldwide – “Shortly after migrants flooded the Spanish territory of Ceuta, notices popped up around Instagram and Facebook.1 These notices are not organic; they were coordinated by the European Commission along with two government-funded NGOs they designated as “reliable and trustworthy” fact-checkers. The EU “Code of Conduct on Disinformation” establishes strict information control protocols. This code explicitly threatens Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, and Google Search with hundred million dollar fines if they do not obey these directives. The Commission already issued a €120M fine to X for refusing to censor political content.” – Brian Chau

ECONOMIC NEWS

THE DEEPER DIVE: The Big Bond Bust is Here – “It’s GLOBAL and out of control, and it’s tearing the national debt apart, spiking everyone’s interest rates on everything all over the world, boosting inflation, and likely incinerating the dollar.” – David Haggith

Number Of The Day: $40 Trillion Of Public Debt And Counting Rapidly To WTF?! – “Yesterday the public debt which had stood a $1 trillion exactly 45 years ago crossed the $40 trillion mark. And it breached that towering level without so much as a by-your-way acknowledgement from a Republican-controlled White House and Congress. Indeed, the only official notice taken insofar as we can tell is Secy Bessent’s idiotic move yesterday to buy long-term USTs and sell short-term Treasury bills to fund his fiscal shell game. And when that didn’t quiet the bond pits our latter day Howdy Doody playing Secretary of the Treasury urged not to sweat it—” – David Stockman

What’s $40 Trillion Among Friends? – “We are told the deficit doesn’t matter, the national debt is just a number, and rising interest costs are manageable because America borrows in its own currency. And those people are correct. It doesn’t matter today because Treasury auctions still clear, the dollar remains dominant, and the government can always create more dollars. It doesn’t matter, until it does.” – Kerry Lutz

Treasury Bond Manipulation Is Failing Already. What’s Next? – “Also, we have a severe clash between fed policy and Treasury bond manipulations.” – Mish

Are World’s Elites About To DUMP Everything? (VIDEO) with Michael Pento – “Michael Pento warns that multiple historic financial bubbles are now converging, with equities, real estate, credit, and leverage all reaching extreme levels simultaneously. He argues that AI investment is increasingly fueled by debt and circular financing rather than organic cash flow, potentially creating another major vulnerability in the credit markets. Pento predicts the next market crash could be extraordinarily severe, with stocks potentially falling 50% and home prices declining 25–30%, while banks and municipalities face mounting losses. He also warns that the government and Federal Reserve may lack the balance-sheet capacity to respond as they have in previous crises, ” – Dunagun Kaiser / Liberty and Finance

Busted bonds and bouncing gold – “There can be little doubt that gold has turned a corner. Markets now see risk in the dollar, whereas as recently as last month it was everyone’s safe haven. This dramatic change in sentiment has seen gold rise to positive territory for the year and oversold silver rushing to catch up. So far, the buying appears to be a western phenomenon without Chinese involvement. Since mid-July gold has risen over $600 to $4590 this morning and silver from under $55 to $69.70. ” – Alasdair Macleod

Oilpocalypse Now? Or Something Worse? – “China And Europe Economic Woes Driven More By Systemic Deflation. With Persian Gulf oil flows still highly disrupted, there are few arguments to be made against the inevitability of the oilpocalypse. If those energy flows are not restored, once strategic reserve releases cease buffering oil prices, a second wave price and supply shock will cascade across the world’s economies. Given the intractability of both President Trump’s Administration in the US and the IRGC in Iran, that outcome seems unavoidable.” -Peter Nayland Kust

For decades, most American teens worked summer jobs — not Gen Z – “So much for scooping ice cream, if you’re in Gen Z. Only about a third of American teenagers had summer jobs this year, compared to more than half three decades ago, new research shows. Fewer Gen Zers are donning embarrassing uniforms to work for peanuts in the heat, with just 35.5% of 16-to-19-year-olds holding gigs this summer, according to the Pew Research Center.” – Natalie O’Neill

Your Vehicle Is a Power Plant – “Most Canadian households already own a machine that stores energy, produces electricity and can be refuelled or recharged: the vehicle in the driveway. Used intelligently, however, a vehicle can keep communications operating, recharge batteries, preserve refrigerated food and run selected equipment during a prolonged blackout. The first step is understanding what kind of power source you actually have.” – denob

How to Preserve Eggs -“If you have access to a freeze dryer, you can put up lots of eggs when your hens are at peak production. Freeze-dried egg powder will last up to 20 years if it’s stored properly, though my goal is to get through the winter months without buying eggs from the store.” – Ana and Audra

The Blood Type Preppers Never Test For And Why It Matters in a Medical Emergency – “Ask anyone in the preparedness community what their blood type is and you will get an answer inside of two seconds. The problem is that the answer almost everyone gives is only a fragment of the real picture. There is a second layer to your blood type that hospitals, military blood programs, and transfusion services treat as mandatory information before a single milliliter moves from one human being into another, and it is a layer that civilian preppers almost never test for.” – Bob Rodgers

THE BIG PICTURE

The Collapse Is Here! Global Bond Market Implodes, US Treasury to the Rescue! – “The superbubble is imploding everywhere today. In short, what the Treasury announced was a form of the Fed’s former Operation Twist, which was one of former Fed Chair Ben Burn-the-banky’s forms of QE. Because bond yields blew out so high on the US30YR Treasury this week, the Secretary Scott Be-sent-by-Trump announced today that his Treasury Dept. will begin massive cannibalistic buybacks of its own bonds in the higher-aging maturity tenors by financing those buybacks with huge issuances of shorter-term Treasuries that have lower rates. This is aimed at having the effect of lowering rates on long-term bonds by raising rates on short-term bonds as the Treasury now floods the market with shorter-term bonds to try to secure lower interest rates on the bloated national debt, using that new funding to reduce supply of long-maturity bonds, thereby driving up price, down yields.” – David Haggith – THIS IS HUGE SHEEPLE 🐑 🐑 🐑 . WAKE UP!!!!!!

We Can’t Vote Our Way Out Of This (VIDEO) – “Let me say this again for those in the back who still do not understand this. We cannot vote our way out of any of this because the ones who are doing all of this are the real life Nephilim along with the worldly governors that Ephesians 6 warns about. The original fallen from before the flood. You know, the ones who actually have power andauthority here on earth. The ones from the demonic kingdom that are calling the shots along with their Nephilim, theirnonhuman puppets. Those are the ones who are actually doing all of this. This is not something that we can all come together, rise up against, and fightbecause this is an actual spiritual issue. This is not a physical issue. This is an actual spiritual war. Because the ones who are calling the shots, the ones who are actually making these decisions are not fully human. They are literally a part of the demonic [music] kingdom. The ones who put together 0:5656 secondsagenda 2030, the ones who want to reduce the human population, they are not fully human. This is not a political issue” – Ashley Hays  – ANOTHER GOOD LISTEN FROM ASHLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marxcusianism – “Meet Angie Nixon. Angie is a member of DSA. Angie just won the Democratic party primary for US senate in Florida. She is, by the standards of more reasonable and civil times, both boorish and bananas, an uncivil person driving uncivil society without regard to reason or discourse. Hers is simply a tack of shouting down and disallowing the speech of any with whom she finds fault. This is what it looks like when you think that suppressing any ideas but yours is justice. It will be a praxis familiar to anyone who was watching american universities circa 2020. No room full of actual adults would tolerate this. draw such conclusions as seem appropriate about the rest of the folks in the chamber (this is the Florida State House of Reps). One of the questions that seems to percolate up from all this is “how did we get to here?”” – El Gato Malo

ICE Wants Our Emails – “When a government agency comes to an internet service provider demanding information about Americans because of what they have said on social media, the provider should discard the demand, close the door or hang up the phone. The government is not entitled to rummage through the political opinions, associations, criticisms and angry rhetoric of anyone merely because a government official finds those opinions offensive, threatening to an agency’s reputation or inconvenient to its mission.” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

Is your favorite alt media “truth-seeker” actually a sheep-dipped operative? – “As legacy media collapses, millions of people are seeking refuge elsewhere. Here’s how to spot the intelligence operatives hiding in the alternative media space.” – Collapse Life

Who Are The Rothschilds? – “Looking Beyond the Official Story. The Rothschild family is recognised today as the richest family on the planet, dear reader, and it has been this way for centuries. The family descends from Mayer Amschel Rothschild, a court Jew born in Germany who established his banking business in the 1760s. Mayer went on to build the most influential network of banks across Europe, and he did it with the help of his five sons. Together, they funded global affairs, and worked their way into becoming the wealthiest family the world had ever seen. What many do not know, curious mind, is that Mayer A. Rothschild pre‑arranged marriages within the family. He set it up so that female members had very limited options when it came to securing their inheritance; the only way they could ensure they would receive their share of the family wealth was to marry their own cousins. It was an effective way to keep money within the family, as unethically disgusting as it is.” – Jordan Nuttall

This Mass Acceptance of Tyrannical Evil Is Directly Related to the Intentional Dumbing Down of Americans – “One wonders how we got to where we are today; a society of non-critical thinkers, non-thinkers period, relying on the State as if a parent or god, fully dependent on this failed system of corruption, indoctrination, and control over every aspect of life.” – Gary D. Barnett

Coward-In-Chief – “America has had some pathetic leaders throughout its history, but never one the likes of Donald J. Trump. Every principle or virtue of leadership one could point to as being obligatory to the character of a true leader is missing from this man. In fact, Trump’s character is the polar opposite of every principle or virtue of true leadership. Trump leads by intimidation, threats, humiliation, bullying, arrogance, complete and utter callousness to the needs of others and pure, unadulterated violence and bloodshed. Those are not the marks of a leader; those are the marks of a gangster. Those are also the marks of a coward. And that’s exactly what Trump is: the Coward-in-Chief. This character defect was put on display for the whole world to see just recently in a most astonishing way—even for Trump.” – Chuck Baldwin

Betrayal – “A Major Theme in American Politics. I know: politicians lie. Who knew? But the lies are so blatant, so fundamental (if that’s the right word), that it’s hard not to despair. Consider Barack Obama. As a candidate he was a beacon of hope and change. He told Planned Parenthood that signing the Freedom of Choice Act would be the first thing he did as president. Once in office, he said it was not his highest legislative priority—and it never got done. Obama said he was the hope and change for Americans to believe in. He proved to be a very smooth con man. Consider Donald Trump. He promised to put Americans first, to end wasteful wars, to take on the military-industrial complex, and to restore American “greatness.” Instead, he’s waging a costly and apparently losing war with Iran” – Bill Astore

The Great Deception of Socialism – A Warning for the Devotees – “The promises are empty, and the promisers are not who they pretend to be.” – Graham Noble

Notice That There Is ZERO Discussion Of Cost – “Once again here comes the socialist pablum. A federal $25 minimum wage mandate would destroy millions of jobs across the country and hit several of the Sun Belt states that have seen a significant influx of new residents in recent years, an economist warned in an interview with Fox News Digital. And right behind that, if it occurs, the minimum livable wage will be $75,000/year and half the restaurants and virtually all fast food places will close.” – Karl Denninger

Nationwide blackout on deck? Get ready for false flag attack on U.S. power grid, likely to be blamed on Iran – “Mainstream media telegraphing government’s potential next move, which would justify Trump’s desire to use tactical nuclear weapons against an enemy he’s been unable to eliminate with conventional arms” – Leo Hohmann

Mass Casualties In Large Russian Assault On Ukraine’s Capital, Air Defenses Dwindle – “Ukraine started the week with near record-setting drone attacks on Moscow, with over 600 UAVs sent against the Russian capital Monday night into Tuesday. The expected major Russian retaliation has come overnight, with a huge missile and drone barrage on the Ukrainian capital. Many dozens were sent, killing over 16 people and injuring more than 40, local authorities report.” – Tyler Durden

CYBERATTACKS On Water Systems A Classic Israeli War Crime – “Cyber Av3ngers has been linked to multiple cyber attacks on US water facilities including 30 in Minnesota alone during July. A US Company, DRAGOS, billed as a Cyber Threat Intelligence Agency made the determination that this was an Iranian plot. Dragos is located in Hanover, Maryland adjacent to Fort Meade home to US Military Cyber Command – Translation: DRAGOS is a military contractor consultant and anything they say is questionable, including the accusation that water facilities have been under attack by Iran – but they have been routinely bombed by Israel. Gaza water facilities nonexistent. Lebanon’s water facilities – destroyed. Syria’s water facilities – bombed in 2019. Libya’s water facilities – one week ago. Bahrain, Kuwait, UAE and IRAN – all attacked.” – Helena Glass  – IRAN OR ISRAEL, ME THINKS THEY ARE ACCUSING THE WRONG ONE!!!

Then I got home and checked the “official” number: CPI running 3.4% year-over-year as of the July report. Three point four percent.

The Humble Plum: The Hardworking Homestead Fruit Most Folks Overlook – “Most folks walk right past the plum trees at the nursery. They’re headed for the familiar rows—the apples, peaches, and pears—and barely give those smaller plum saplings a second glance. That’s a shame. Pound for pound, the plum may be one of the hardest-working fruits you can plant. It feeds your family, gives early spring pollinators a desperately needed meal, preserves beautifully, and asks for less pampering than many orchard fruits.” – Bill Heid

The bleeding is controlled, the injured person is stable, and everyone exhales. In normal circumstances, this is where first aid begins handing the problem over to professionals. During a prolonged collapse, however, there may be no hand-off.

You want the water you already paid to do some real work, the kind that saves money or covers you in a dry spell. So this isn’t that list. These are five uses that fit the homesteading life, and a couple caught me off guard the first time I heard about them. The best part? None are complicated.” – Olivia Brooks

Being Flexible in our Service to God – “As life goes, when one door closes, another opens.” – Kate Dreston

What’s Wrong With Flock? – “Well, let’s start with the name. It is demeaning. Sheep run in flocks. Are herded. The name tells us what those who intend to herd us have in mind for us. Keep in mind what eventually happens to sheep. Our would-be shepherds – so to speak – are not herding us to “keep us safe.” They intend to fence us in – so hat we are easier to shear. They do not say this, of course. They say it is for our safety. By now, people should reflexively become alarmed whenever they hear others talk about their “safety.” Everyone is naturally self-interested in their own safety. The only one who has the right to make such valuations is the individual. The Flock people – specifically, CEO Garrett Langley – believe otherwise, or so they pretend to believe. The premise underlying the placing of cameras everywhere people go is that it will keep the “flock” safe. In other words, that it is a benevolent, altruistic operation. Something like a mom keeping an eye on her kid while he’s playing outside. Except of course Garret Langley is not our mother and is not motivated by motherly protective instincts. He is motivated by pecuniary interests; i.e., the desire to make money.” – Eric Peters

Psychiatry as Diabolical Pseudoscience: The Sordid Tale of Lindsay Clancy – “From September 2022 until she allegedly murdered her own family and jumped out of a two-story window in January 2023, Clancy was dosed with no fewer than 13 psychotropic pharmaceutical drugs furnished by multiple providers, none of whom bothered to coordinate their prescribed regimens despite knowing that she was seeing other doctors and suffering extreme side effects: · Sertraline · Lorazepam · Hydroxyzine · Clonazepam · Buspirone · Amitriptyline · Trazodone · Fluoxetine · Zolpidem · Mirtazapine · Quetiapine · Diazepam · Lamotrigine Clancy’s psychiatrist, Dr. Jennifer Tufts with the dead eyes — she appears to perhaps be drinking the proverbial Kool-Aid herself, as it were — testified that she had conducted all of Clancy’s “therapy” sessions, which lasted a grand total of 17 minutes, via Zoom or its equivalent, via what they call in the business “telehealth.” She literally had never seen Clancy, her own patient to whom she prescribed numerous hard drugs simultaneously,” – Ben Bartee

As savings finally dry up, rates remain higher and auto loan/credit card delinquencies start rising, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a deluge of ugliness from these types of names in their next few quarterly reports. There is nothing particularly revolutionary about lending money at egregious rates to people who don’t have any. But when you start extending tiny amounts of credit so consumers can finance increasingly trivial purchases, whether that’s a burrito, groceries, takeout or other everyday expenses, you aren’t witnessing some great innovation in financial technology. You’re witnessing the last gasp of liquidity breath from a consumer in deep financial stress.” – Quoth the Raven

Venezuela’s Stolen Gold but Guess What? One Venezuela a Day Won’t Even Dent America’s Debt Principal – “A $4.3 billion Venezuelan gold haul barely covers one day’s interest; even daily plunder would feed the debt machine, never reduce its principal.. At the current average interest rate of about 3.6%, a debt of $39.9 trillion adds roughly $4 billion in interest every single day. Paying $4 billion daily only covers the interest charges, keeping the loan current. Every cent goes toward the fee, leaving the $39.9 trillion total principal completely untouched. Washington has discovered the ultimate perpetual-motion machine: borrow money, print money, use the printed money to buy the debt you just issued, then congratulate yourself for “managing liquidity.”” – The Silver Academy

Gold has been trading above $4,270 per ounce, up more than $900 from a year ago, while silver has pushed past $60 an ounce, a level that would have seemed unthinkable just two years earlier. Behind these numbers is a story that has less to do with retail investors and more to do with the world’s central banks quietly, and sometimes not so quietly, reshaping how they hold their national reserves.” – Craig Hemke

The Worst Mistakes You Can Make When Buying Land – “Let’s say you find a piece of land that checks every box. The grass is green, the creek is running, and you can already see where the garden goes and where the barn goes. So you sign the papers, and you feel good about it. Finally you’ll have the homestead of your dreams. Then you move in and the problems start. What looked perfect in the begging now it’s a nightmare. Nothing seems to work according to the plan. This is not just a scenario. Things like this happen every day to many Americans and the only way to avoid being scammed when buying land is knowing what to look for beforehand. ” – Olivia Brooks

Batteries Degrade Faster in Storage Than in Use: Here’s the Actual Data – “Most of us assume a battery wears out because we use it. You charge the phone every night, you drain the drill pack building a deck, you run the laptop down to single digits on a long flight, and somewhere in all that activity the capacity quietly disappears. The story is comfortable, familiar, and only half true. When researchers separate the two clocks running inside every cell, the one tied to charging and discharging and the one tied to nothing more than elapsed time, they keep landing on the same awkward finding. Under a lot of ordinary conditions, batteries degrade faster sitting untouched on a shelf, in a drawer, or in a parked vehicle than they do in the hands of somebody who actually puts them to work.” – Bob Rodgers

THE BIG PICTURE

The All-Seeing Eye – “In an era where our every word, step, and glance can be archived, summarized, and replayed by sleek little discs pinned to our chests, the ancient archetype of the all-seeing eye has found its modern silicon incarnation. What was once the paranoid whisper of conspiracy has become the marketed convenience of ‘life logging’—yet beneath the promise of perfect memory lies the total erasure of privacy, turning every shrew into a unwitting performer on the surveillance stage. Digital passports, social credit systems, vaccine mandates—each promised safety or convenience while tightening the noose. AI wearables complete the circle: they don’t just monitor the body or the public square; they ingest the mind itself, turning inner dialogue into training data for the next generation of control. We are not far from the logical endpoint—stylish glasses with always-on cameras, or worse, neural implants that record thoughts before they become words. The marketers will call it “seamless augmentation.” The shrew calls it the end of anything resembling private life. But here we go. Woo-hoo again, what fun!” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP

As the US Military and Israeli Military Openly Merge, All Criticism is Rebuffed Using the Red Shield – “The US and Israeli Militaries have worked together closely since the Nation of Israel was founded in 1948. In large part, the founding of the Israeli State gave the US government a base for expansion and control in the Middle East. Yes, the US has bases all over the Middle East. But, those bases have to get permission, or appear to get permission, from those nation’s governments before the US can act from those bases. It’s important to understand that our world is not run by the various governments of nation states. The US Empire’s power and funding exist, not because the US is exceptional, but because a transnational Oligarchy has used the US as its primary military might for over a century. Now, the US has served it’s purpose. The transnational Oligarchy controls: governments (through blackmailing and funding the predator political class), intelligence agencies, organized crime, banks, NGOs, the pharmaceutical industry, the media, universities, and most large corporations. This is how a relative few facilitate plans that transform our world. ” – Sarah E. Lawton – LONG, BUT EXTREMELY INYERESTING!!!

The Madness of King Trump – “Trump isn’t a king – though he would probably like to be and seems to see himself as one. Nevertheless, there is an interesting correlation between Trump and King George III, the one who was king when the American colonies successfully seceded from the empire of Great Britain. George III went nuts. Check-up from the neck up nuts. Trump seems to need just that. Once again, he has been posting nutty AI-generated memes, among them images of himself with George Washington, a president who wasn’t nuts. To begin with, how is it that the president has time to order these memes made (he almost certainly isn’t capable of making them himself as not many 80- year-olds are tech-hip) and to review and post them on his social media platform? There is a catastrophic war going on. There are catastrophic repercussions percolating. It is not as if it were a time of peace and prosperity and the president had little to do and needed an amusing (if infantile) diversion. That he spends even ten minutes on this infantile and embarrassing twaddle is insulting. ” – Eric Peters  – A COUPLE OF GOOD ONES FROM ERIC ⬆️ AND ERIK ⬇️ AS USUAL !!!!

Madmen and Yes Men – “Frank Zappa warned us that one day, inside the crowded theater we metaphorically occupy, the curtain across the back wall would be pulled back revealing no windows and no exit—no way out. Until recently, Putin could call Trump and make small bargains. Now, with Trump under pressure from Netanyahu/Mossad (whatever they have on him), and likelihood of Trump’s diminishing mental/physical condition, it appears his desperation/megalomania have taken control of his mind. There is one card that has not been played. Marjorie Taylor Green, who has come out against her long-time ally, Trump, announced today that she is aware of discussions in DC, providing for nuclear strikes on Iran. If there is any rational at all for this—it is a result of Trump’s desperation. My take: Netanyahu has not become mad—he was always mad—and as such would be on board with nuclear strikes against Iran. According to pundits closest to Trump’s administration, there is consensus that Trump is diminished, psychologically/physically. As such, given his hubris/inability to admit responsibility for his failed presidency—he might do whatever it takes.” – Erik@neverhadaboss.com

The Premeditated and Staged Insanity of War – “The first matter of great importance and honest understanding is that there is no such thing as a ‘defensive’ war. What should follow then, is that no war can ever be against evil, given that war is the epitome of evil. Actual justified self-defense by any individual or group of individuals, regardless of the size and scope of the mass, is warranted only to quell a threat, but any war waged by states or nations, is a war against all, and therefore not defensive, but offensive aggression against innocents.” – Gary D. Barnett

Trump’s Disappearing Presidency – “Trump devotedly pursues deep state continuity and endless war. His administration is rallying what is left of our military to vainly extend the life of a dying petrodollar. Trump’s Israel obsession, and Israel’s amoral maximalism, is producing global chaos designed to advance Israel’s interests as it consumes American bone and sinew, much as the US is consuming Ukraine’s in the proxy war with Russia.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

Washington dropped plans for a border wall in Far West Texas. The bulldozers came anyway. – “After fierce bipartisan resistance, the Trump administration has paused work… temporarily. But the contracts and the larger plan appear to remain in place. There’s a remote part of the West Texas desert that most Americans have probably never heard of and many will never see with their own eyes. If you ever watched Wile E. Coyote chase the Road Runner in Saturday morning cartoons, you can pretty much imagine what it looks like. It’s wild, rugged, beautiful, and still largely untouched. With the harsh terrain and poisonous snakes, spiders, and other predators naturally keeping all but the most intrepid at bay, tourism was almost non-existent until Big Bend National Park was established about 80 years ago. This area is one of the only places in America where you can still see the Milky Way clearly with the naked eye, so pristine is the night sky. It’s not difficult, therefore, to understand why many residents were opposed to the Trump administration’s proposal to build a 30-foot wall through Big Bend National Park. Opposition came from Texans on both sides of the political divide, and for a while it appeared as though the outcry was somewhat successful, with the plans being significantly rolled back. Nevertheless, the bulldozers showed up anyway.” – Collapse Life

Down from 415 million in March. Down from a peak of 726.6 million in 2010. Down because Secretary of Energy Chris Wright announced 172 million barrels for release in March, after Iran shut the Strait of Hormuz and 32 IEA nations agreed to a coordinated 400-million-barrel dump. That’s a Keynesian move. And a political move. It’s not a strategic move. The SPR is a misnomer.” – John Hunt, MD

THE BIG PICTURE

Worshipping Moloch in Massachusetts – “Last week in the birthplace of our American fight for freedom, liberty, and independence, the state of Massachusetts, Governor Maura Healey signed into law the murder of children in the womb right up to their birth. First, let me make something very clear: in the military, we “abort” a mission when something is not going as planned. What Gov. Healey signed into law was the permission and acceptance to enact infanticide by way of dismembering unborn babies in the womb. A mother’s womb is supposed to be the safest place for God’s everyday miracle, life. Yet Maura Healey and the accompanying priestesses of Moloch, who smiled and clapped, have now condoned the shedding of innocent blood, and for what reason? Why is it that these so-called “college-educated, elitist, leftist” women have such a disdain for our unborn babies that they would embrace their brutal, disgusting death, ” – Allen West

And Washington’s answer is almost always the same: spend more money.” – Kerry Lutz

Realignments – “We civilians are stuck between that old rock and a hard place. . . two political parties whirling around the drain of extinction in a nation seeming to drift toward the edge of the known world. In the background, a massive realignment grinds away. The old parties of labor and of property have forgotten their reasons for existence. Labor vamoosed to Mexico, China, and obscure faraway lands decades ago. Property is still here, but it’s all been collateralized into grift and fraud. In the absence of working people to defend, the Democrats became a party of racketeering race-and-gender hobgoblins, now marshaling into an insectile host of predatory Marxists, and altogether their antics present as a spectrum of mental illness.The clueless old gorks in charge of the Democratic Party — the likes of Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, Mark Warner, Liz Warren, Chris Murphy, Sheldon Whitehouse — are suddenly nowhere to be seen (or heard). ” – James Howard Kunstler

For the American Left, Nothing Succeeds as Much as Failure – “From New York to California, the American left is proving that nothing succeeds like failure. In areas ranging from immigration to taxes to health care, politicians are playing to their past fiascos to push an even more radical agenda. Take immigration. Many, including the Democratic Socialists, have called for open borders or disbanding ICE. After the Biden administration chose to allow millions of undocumented people to enter the country, most Democrats are now calling for “pathways” to make them citizens. After all, they argue, there are too many to deport. We now know the open border was a choice. The Trump administration immediately stopped crossings using the same laws Biden had refused to enforce. As expected, Democrats are expressing horror at the thought that the government would try to deport the millions that they allowed and even encouraged to enter the country.” – Jonathan Turley

Oilpocalypse—Yes, No, Or Maybe? – “Can An Oil Supply Crisis Be Averted? The war between Iran and the US has been functionally reduced to a simple question: will the Strait of Hormuz be reopened as a freely navigable international waterway? As of this writing, the Strait has not been reopened. Iran has declared the Strait closed, while the US Navy is blockading all Iranian shipping. With the Strait of Hormuz closed, Persian Gulf oil is effectively removed from the global oil marketplace—approximately 20% of global supply is not currently accessible.” – Peter Nayland Kust

An Oily Conundrum – “The Strait of Hormuz is closed. Oh, you can claim otherwise, but it is effectively closed. The claims of our government otherwise are simply not borne out in the supply of oil; you can claim something went through a channel but then it has to wind up somewhere, and it hasn’t. Never mind Marinetraffic which continues to show a crap-ton of vessels at anchor on both sides of it rather than moving through it — and a crap-ton of tankers that are “technically” moving, but at a fraction of a knot. There are a lot of vessels just sitting in the gulf. Contrast with the strait to the WSW around Yemen where there is clearly traffic moving. Then again blocking that is not a one-way exit in that the Suez is available to the North, albeit rather inconvenient if your destination is in Asia. So what’s going on here? Well, quite-obviously the markets don’t think this is a big deal otherwise both oil would be in the stratosphere and the markets would be in the tank because without fuel, particularly diesel, nothing moves. Neither is occurring.” – Karl Denninger

We Are In A War-Time Economy. That’s Bullish. – “That’s also why productivity, not just spending, is holding this economy up even with job growth flat. Real GDP averaged above 2.5% over the back half of 2025 even with negative headline job growth, because AI-driven productivity gains are increasingly doing the work labor used to do. Microsoft says 35% of its code is now written by AI. Meta cut 21,000 jobs while INCREASING output. S&P 500 revenue growth has slowed to around 5%, yet earnings per share are still growing at roughly 12% year over year, because margins keep expanding even as top-line growth cools. Slower revenue, expanding margins. That’s exactly what a genuine productivity boom looks like, and it’s a big reason the market keeps shrugging off headlines that would have tanked stocks in any other cycle.” – Graham Summers, MBA

So, inflation isn’t as bad as it was. That’s the good news. But you’ll notice that they didn’t say that the inflation rate is “good.” And that’s because, based on the Fed’s target inflation rate… and what it feels like every time that we go shopping,, the inflation rate isn’t good (which is the first part of the bad news, if you hadn’t already guessed)” – .Peter Reagan

The CDC Planned Quarantine Camps Nationwide – “No matter how bad you think Covid policies were, they were intended to be worse. Consider the vaccine passports alone. Six cities were locked down to include only the vaccinated in public indoor places. They were New York City, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, Washington, D.C., and Seattle. The plan was to enforce this with a vaccine passport. It broke. Features of the CDC’s edicts did incredible damage. It imposed the rent moratorium. It decreed the ridiculous “six feet of distance” and mask mandates. It forced Plexiglas as the interface for commercial transactions. Even with all that, worse was planned. CDC issued a plan for establishing nationwide quarantine camps. ” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

In Defense of Luigi – “The man who shot (and killed) the insurance mafia CEO is seen by some as a sympathetic figure. Perhaps because insurance mafia CEOs cut a very unsympathetic figure. He – the insurance mafia CEO – had it coming, some might say. This doesn’t mean Luigi didn’t commit murder. John Gotti did that when he took out “Big Paul” Castellano outside of Sparks Steak House in New York. Gotti was a thug, certainly – but so was Castellano. Regardless, the fact remains that the health insurance mafia is exactly like the car insurance mafia in that both leveraged the government to force people to fork it over. That is strong-arm robbery by any reasonable understanding and almost everyone understands that everyone has a natural right to defend themselves when confronted by a strong-armed robber. The health insurance mafia emulates these same tactics. It extorts and it extracts and when it is asked to pay, it denies. This made Luigi angry – as it has made most of us angry. Is there anyone who thinks the health insurance mafia isn’t one? That likes these mafiosi? We have all heard about people bankrupted and hounded by these mafiosi for every last cent they can extract. This is not to say Luigi didn’t murder that man. Just as John Gotti took out “Big Paul.”” – Eric Peters

In Memoriam: The US Gold Dollar (Like It Or Not, It Will Be Forced Back And Soon ) – “Unknown to may, the drive for disconnecting the dollar from gold was headed not by President Nixon but by David Rockefeller’s former personal assistant and future Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker. Volker is lauded as having saved the US dollar by raising the Fed Funds Rate to 19% in 1980 when, in reality, Volker doomed it by pitching the dollar overboard into a sea of assured continual debasement. With the disconnect of America’s dollar from gold, America’s gold was thereafter statically held by the US Treasury as a strategic asset at three primary vault locations: West Point, NY, Denver, Colorado and at Fort Knox, Kentucky. Rumors started to arise about America’s vaulted gold and continue to this day with Rand Paul assuring the world that Fort Knox gold was “present and accounted for” after he toured Fort Knox on Monday last week.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

You know I can be found
Sitting home all alone
If you can’t come around
At least please telephone
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true

Baby, if I made you mad
For something I might have said
Please, let’s forget my past
The future looks bright ahead
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
I don’t want no other love
Baby, it’s just you I’m thinking of

Don’t stop thinking of me
Don’t make me feel this way
Come on over here and love me
You know what I want you to say
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
Why should we be apart?
I really love you, baby, cross my heart

Let’s walk up to the preacher
And let us say, “I do,”
Then you’ll know you’ll have me
And I’ll know that I’ll have you
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
I don’t want no other love
Baby, it’s just you I’m thinking of

Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
I don’t want no other love
Baby, it’s just you I’m thinking of

( Don’t Be Cruel – by Otis Blackwell, Elvis Aaron Presley )

ELVIS PASSED AWAY 49 YEARS AGO TODAY.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK (BONUS REPEAT FROM A FEW MONTHS AGO)

I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died

Just a country boy
That combed his hair
And he put on a shirt his mother made
And went on the air

And he shook it like a chorus girl
He shook it like a Harlem queen
He shook it like a midnight rambler, baby
Like you never seen

I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died

How he took it all
Out of black and white
Grabbed his wand in the other hand
And he held on tight

And he shook it like a hurricane
He shook it like to make it break
And he shook it like a holy roller, baby
With his soul at stake, his soul at stake

I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died

He was all alone
In a long decline
Thinking how happy John Henry was
That he fell down and died

When he shook it and it rang like silver
He shook it and it shined like gold
He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby
Well, bless my soul, bless my soul

I was thinking that night about Elvis

( Elvis Presley Blues by Gillian Welch )

 

THE BIG PICTURE

Tucker, Candace and Caitlin- All Our Cucks in a Row – “Seatching for White Hats. Recently, Tucker Carlson interviewed Hunter Biden. It was a friendly interview. Extremely cordial. Bizarrely cordial. Like two old boys from the upper crust sitting down together. Which they are. Hunter was talking about the disparity of wealth like he was Huey Long. A crack addicted Huey Long with no real convictions. He’s clearly strapped for cash.” – Donald Jeffries

Fauci & Walensky Obviously Guilty of Criminal Negligence – “Standard of evidence for prosecuting the NIAID & CDC directors for “criminal negligence” clearly met. We live in a strange era in which the criminal conduct of our ruling class is so painfully obvious that it often gives me a headache. It’s as though millions of people cannot see it because it is so painfully obvious because the mind assumes that the criminal conduct of official authorities must be concealed in a sophisticated way.” – .John Leake

Celebrities Look Emaciated And Like Zombies Because Of Ozempic, But Is This Part Of A Dark Trend To Condition The Masses? – “There is a theory going around that suggests that this wave of celebrities losing so much weight they look gaunt and emaciated, is because the industry is conditioning people for the coming famine…” – The WinePress

There was nothing racist about the media scrutiny of Jason Arday – “It is sinister and tyrannical to use the ‘racism’ charge to shut down public discussion. Yet to the identitarian left, he was black, and thus all criticism of him is bigotry. But not one of the claims of the racism-spotters stacks up.” – Brendan O’Neill

Lily (& TWW) Take On the ‘Liberal’ Agenda to Destroy Marriage… (Well, mostly Lily – I just made the images.) – “CNN recently published an article on their website claiming that ‘cuckolding’ might be good for your relationship. It isn’t.. CNN published an article on their website this week telling you that watching your wife having sex with some random black guy half your age is going to be good for your marriage. That’s not me exaggerating. That’s what they’re selling. They call it cuckolding and they say it can be positive for some couples. Yeah… If your goal is divorce maybe. And CNN put a caption under it saying that acting on adulterous fantasies might make your marriage stronger. This is sick. Plain and simple.” – Lily-Rose Dawson and 🐺The Wise Wolf

 

 

 

NEWS

When the Past is Disallowed—The Future Becomes Certain – “In a world where the West is utterly propagandized to think the worst of China, Russia, and Iran, China is viewed more favorably in 26 of 37 countries surveyed, including US allies/neighbors Canada, France, Germany, Mexico, and Britain. We are deeply propagandized, dulling our collective senses such that we allow a moron with orange hair to dismantle the world. Iran has all the cards. They are producing missiles faster than they use them, and there is nothing Trump can do about it. Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan have signed a mutual defense pact, that amounts to security agreements without US involvement. It’s crude and politically motivated, but it speaks to nations wanting out from under the US yoke, nations that want to flex sovereignty among nations with whom they share proximity.” – Erik@neverhadaboss.com

Much More Minus Trump – “The relationship with Israel, the war on Iran, and the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, all interrelated, are destroying Trump’s presidency. Another well-founded suspicion is that Trump was blackmailed by the Israelis into waging war on Iran. A more benign explanation is that he was bribed with donations from wealthy Jews. Either way—and it may well be both—the war on Iran has not gone as planned or advertised.” – Robert Gore  – HAS BEEN A WHILE, BUT ROBERT STILL WRITES GREAT ARTICLES. GOOD TO SEE HIM BACK TEMPORARILY!!!

“Pay a Tiny Bit More For Your Gasoline” – “In New York the other day, Trump told his audience – which actually cheered – that it’s not a big deal at all and well worth it “for you to pay a tiny little bit more for your gasoline just remember, you’re doing. . . so that a very evil country cannot have . . . a country really cannot have . . . it’s the number one state sponsor of terror in the world . . . we don’t want them to have a nuclear weapon . . . remember that when you have to pay a little bit more you’re at $4, ok, I mean I’ll never apologize I did the right thing.” It makes you miss (almost) that well-known scholar, former president George W. Bush. By year’s end, the average American will have had to spend more than $1,000 extra on gas. Pocket change for Trump. He is as clueless as George W. Bush’s father (who was puzzled about the cost of a gallon of milk) but with the added element of imperial contempt. Of course, Trump also thinks no cost is too high for Americans to pay on behalf of Israel and “Bibi” Netanyahu. The latter literally gave Trump (and before him, The Chimp) the talking points about Iran being the “number one state sponsor of terror in the world . . . we don’t want them to have a nuclear weapon,” which “Bibi” has been warning the Iranians are going to possess any day now since the early 1990s.” – Eric Peters

TRUMP THE COWARD PRESIDENT. – “Apparently, when the coward president creates an energy crisis, you are supposed to consider the higher bill an act of patriotism. And then there is the USS Abraham Lincoln. The carrier has been deployed for more than 260 days, including more than 240 uninterrupted days at sea, a modern record. THE COWARD PRESIDENT responded that it had been “not nearly long enough.”” – Gregory Mannarino

The buck stops somewhere else: A look at Trump’s tendency to avoid blame when things go awry – ” It is among the most famous phrases in presidential history: “ The buck stops here.” Except with President Donald Trump, it almost never does.” – Will Weissert

The Trumps’ Crypto Project Just Got One Step Closer to Becoming a Bank – “A regulatory charter for World Liberty Financial could be “the most brazen act of self-dealing our system has ever seen.” The move certainly seems likely to strengthen the pocketbooks of the president and his family: Democratic lawmakers are pointing to the regulatory green light as an example of Trump’s corruption. On Friday, as the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency announced the move, Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) wrote on social media that “this is the most brazen act of self-dealing our system has ever seen.”” – Sophie Hurwitz

War On Iran: Six Months Later – The Astonishing Size Of The U.S. Defeat – “January 28 2026: The U.S. sent a carrier force to threaten Iran. It made a number of extensive demands. August 15 2026: Due to Iranian counter measures the carrier mission largely failed It is leaving the Middle East. The carrier will be replaced by a different one. But the U.S. has only ten of these and to keep one ship on station requires two additional ones for refit and training. Six of the ten carriers will thus be bound near the Strait which leaves just one ready to take care of the rest of the world. They are doing high-fives in Beijing. The demands towards Iran are gone. The first concern for Trump is now political survival.” – Moon of Alabama

Iran Takes a Page From U.S. World War II History: Gold Becomes the Price of Passage Through Hormuz – “As Washington seeks control, Tehran is turning the world’s crucial energy chokepoint into a gold-settlement gateway, forcing U.S. allies to pay for passage. Good thing Rand Paul said the Gold is there” – The Silver Academy

US Has Lost 25% Of Its Reaper Drones In War With Iran – “The US has lost at least 45 Reaper drones during the Iran war, American defense officials were quoted as saying. The same officials estimate that this constitutes roughly 25% of the Pentagon’s fleet.” – The WinePress

Patriots Won’t Let Communists Take America – “Our enemies took over the universities. They took over the Deep State. They see total victory within their sights. But they’ve never seen American patriots actually fight. We are not sheep for the wolves to devour. We are the hunters who scare the wolves away.” – J.B. Shurk

It Was DESTROYED In Just Days… Take heed Europe – “In a matter of days, once-pristine beaches in the Spanish enclave of Ceuta have been reduced to open-air dumps and disease-ridden camps occupied by thousands of illegal migrants who refused to leave after the mass invasion from Morocco. Locals describe feces, urine, garbage, and makeshift shacks covering the sand. Contagious illnesses are spreading. Mass brawls with bladed weapons have broken out.” – Steve Watson

Democratic Party Committee Advances Resolution Demanding ICE Be Abolished – “The Resolutions Committee, meeting in Austin, passed the measure despite some members backing reform rather than abolition.” – Nathan Worcester

Post-Maduro Venezuela Wants Its $4BN In Gold Back From England – “Despite Maduro having been ousted by a US military operation last January during a shock overnight military raid on the capital, the Bank of England is demanding absolute legal clarity on who actually holds the reins of power in Venezuela before agreeing to open up the vaults. An unnamed opposition figure revealed to the FT that both factions are hashing out a “transparency mechanism” designed to ensure the billion-dollar windfall isn’t quietly siphoned off.” – Tyler Durden – I’M SURE THE U.S. WANYS TO GET IT’S GRUBBY HANDS ON IIT!!!!

Why the Bond Market is Squeezing Fed Chair Warsh – “Making sense of conflicting economic data can be tricky. Particularly when the data is fabricated by government bean counters. The task for the casual observer is to discern what is real and what is just statistical sleight of hand designed to obscure economic weakness. If you quickly perused the July employment report published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on August 7, you likely noted two contradictory data points. In July, the U.S. economy lost 23,000 jobs. Wall Street was expecting the addition of 83,000 jobs. Yet, at the same time, the official unemployment rate dropped from 4.2 percent to 4.1 percent.” – MN Gordon  – NOTED ABOUT THAT YESTERDAY IN AN ARTICLE BY PETER ST ONGE!!!

Tyson Foods will close or sell three US beef facilities as industry struggles- “Tyson Foods said on Thursday it will close or sell three of its beef plant and packaging operation sites, further shrinking its beef footprint as a historic U.S. cattle shortage deepens losses for the largest U.S. meatpacker. The company will end operations at its beef facility in Joslin, Illinois, and its case-ready beef facility in Eagle Mountain, Utah, and pursue the sale of its beef plant in Pasco, Washington. The latest restructuring follows the January shutdown of Tyson’s massive beef plant in Lexington, Nebraska, which had about 3,200 workers and could process roughly 5,000 cattle per day, according to an industry estimate. Tyson also reduced its Amarillo plant to one full-capacity shift, affecting about 1,700 workers.” – P.J.

But you’ll have to do a little homework and some advance planning first.” – Steve Nubie

How Much Ammunition Is Enough? – “Ammunition shortages rarely arrive with a formal warning. An increase in demand, manufacturing interruption, import difficulty or regulatory change can empty shelves remarkably quickly. Popular cartridges disappear first, prices rise, and shooters begin conserving whatever remains. The predictable reaction is to buy as much ammunition as possible whenever it becomes available. That may produce an impressive stack of boxes, but it does not necessarily create a useful reserve. Every firearm should have a clearly defined role. That role determines the amount and type of ammunition worth keeping.” – denob  – GOOD ONE FROM THE CANADIAN PREPPER!!!

A curious assurance, seeing as in the Senate hearing, Hawley brought up Walmart’s patent for a spiffy new shopping cart—one equipped with sensors capable of tracking the cart’s speed as well as the shopper’s heart rate and body temperature. This information, you’ll be overjoyed to learn, can then be used to assign the shopper an “agitation score.” Yes, an agitation score. This cart, you see, was not designed merely to transport your avocados and almond butter to the checkout—how quaint—but is also compiling a handy biometric profile on you like a rogue Fitbit ratting you out to corporate.” – Jenna McCarthy

Well funded immigration activists have funded 20,000 lawsuits to force the release of immigrant-invaders. Perhaps you wonder the cost of 20,000 lawsuits? Yes, it is a multi-billion dollar operation that some people are getting rich off of.

There’s a sort of last-gasp feeling about all this.

Switching Presidential Planes in Ankara – “Hardly a week goes by when Donald Trump is not the centerpiece and source of a lie so outrageous or an accusation so heinous that one has to sit back gazing at one’s computer screen, stunned by the audacity and shaking one’s head in disbelief. But even after what is now more than a year and a half of exposure to Trumpism, there is sometimes an insult, or a gesture, or an insane narrative that moves one to something beyond that, akin to shock in the realization that it is our country and even a large part of the world that is being damaged by the asinine performance. Even given Trump’s ignorance and demonstrated lack of empathy for anyone else but himself, this Prisoner of Zenda-like escape from Air Force One through a cart used to deliver meals to the plane reminds one of how a somber Rod Serling used to intone “We have now entered the Twilight Zone.” ” – Philip Giraldi

So when Lahn came to his farm last week, Burrack questioned him on his approach to agriculture. “I hit him pretty hard,” said Burrack, who was considering whether to vote for Lahn in November or not vote at all.” – Hannah Fingerhut

English Village Will Have Six MIGRANT MEN To Every Woman – “What do you think will happen? A quiet North Yorkshire village of roughly 600 people is set to be flooded with around 1,200 single adult male asylum seekers at the nearby disused RAF Linton-on-Ouse base. Local women would be outnumbered six to one.” – Steve Watson

What the Three RIC Musketeers are really up to – “Relish the ambiguity. And the deliberate opaqueness. Hop on a new adventure: let’s look at RIC (Russia-Iran-China), the new Primakov triangle, as I have defined them, in a more playful way. These three civilization-states that are coordinating the new phase of Eurasia integration, and also established as full BRICS and SCO members, as in fact The Three Musketeers.” – Pepe Escoba

‘US is far more deeply involved’: Russia accuses Washington of providing intel for Ukraine strikes – “Lavrov on Friday said Moscow has sought answers from Washington over alleged US involvement in attacks deep inside Russian territory as Putin remains open to talks with Trump’s envoys. He said Putin would be prepared to receive US envoys if they returned to Russia to discuss Ukraine, but questioned what Washington would bring to the table. “The question is what they will be bringing with them,” Lavrov said. At the same time, the Russian foreign minister signalled that Moscow intended to step up attacks aimed at disrupting Western military assistance to Ukraine.” – FP News Desk

July PPI: Producer Prices Running Colder – “Where Is The Energy Price Inflation?” – Peter Nayland Kust

Jobs Fall, but Unemployment Rate Gets Better – “This gave ammunition to both sides: The doomers point to falling jobs, the optimists point to an unemployment rate that matches or beats 90% of months over the past 50 years. So which is it: Are we in a jobs recession? Or is a falling labor force a good thing? But the bigger issue is the main driver of the paradox right now is millions of Americans are dropping out of the workforce. As in there’s fewer jobs, but there’s even fewer people in the workforce. Which mechanically reduces the unemployment rate because the unemployment rate doesn’t measure everyone without a job. It measures people without jobs who are actively looking for work, divided by the total labor force. In other words, if somebody loses a job and looks for another one, that person is unemployed. But if he gives up searching, retires or otherwise leaves the labor force, the government no longer counts him as unemployed.” – Peter St Onge  – HAVE EXPLAINED IT BEFORE IN OLDER LINKS, BUT SOME DON’T REALIZE THIS!!!

Iran Is Tracking Toward Gold Hormuz Toll & Oil Trade Settlement / Record Diesel Market Shortage – “Today, the spread in price between the price of a barrel of diesel vs a barrel of crude oil hit an all time high in the US over $97 /barrel (bbl) before pulling back this evening after US markets closed. When energy markets are well supplied, this diesel crack spread (price spread) differential typically runs between 15 and 25 USD/bbl.” – David Jensen

The State of Americans’ Auto Debt – “Auto loan balances, average amount financed, loan length, credit score, debt-to-income ratio, and delinquencies from subprime to prime. The average amount financed for new-vehicle loans soared to a record $42,500 (red line in the chart below), as automakers continued to go upscale.” – Wolf Richter  – I REMEMBER WHEN YOU COULD BUY A DECENT HOUSE FOR THOSE PRICES!!!

Sentiment now positive for gold – “There’s a sea-change underway in investor attitudes towards gold and silver. Markets now see growing risk to the dollar as a consequence of oil supply disruption. When America first attacked Iran on 28 February, gold and silver prices declined: gold from $5320 and silver from $93. Admittedly, both were vulnerable to a severe bout of bull market indigestion which was hardly propitious. But the suggestion of deferred interest rate deductions appeared to work against precious metal prices. Meanwhile, the equity and other bubbles continued to be inflated by free-flowing credit. Just about the only sensible arguments as to why this was the case veers towards conspiracies: bullion banks using febrile investor psychology that they should liquidate their positions before they lose even more. Sentiment became about as negative as it could get, with open interest on Comex falling to exceptionally low levels. It is a fact that while speculators in both west and east have been forced out of paper gold and silver, China and allied partners have been accumulating physical.” – Alasdair Macleod – GOOD ANALYSIS FROM ALASDAIR ON THE METALS MARKET!!!

Bugging Out to the National Forest Is a Good Way to Die Slowly – “Somewhere in your house there is probably a backpack packed with a ferro rod, folding saw, tarp, water filter, snare wire, first-aid kit and several days of food. The idea behind it is simple: when everything falls apart, you load the family into the truck, drive until the road ends, shoulder the bag and disappear into the national forest. Once you are out there, you will build a shelter, collect water, forage for plants, trap small game and hunt deer. You will avoid the crowds, live off the land and wait for civilization to settle down. It sounds good because the person imagining it is always healthy, well-rested and standing in a climate-controlled house with a full stomach. The forest in that fantasy is empty, the weather is manageable, the animals are everywhere and nobody else had the same idea.” – OFFGRID Survival

THE BIG PICTURE

If More Evidence Were Needed . . . – “It’s sometimes difficult for the brain when hopes do not align with contrary facts. Trump was re-elected, at least in part, because those who voted for him thought that he was different than “Joe Biden” and Kamala Harris. Turns out he is – just not in the way people thought. People thought he was “MAGA.” Does anyone hear that term said anymore – other than accompanied by snickers? Turns out he is MIGA and many other things that are contrary to Making America Great Again. He’s also a drug pusher. He just anointed one of the worst such – Dr. Erica Schwartz. She is the younger, female and black re-incarnation of Dr. Fauci. She has a record of pushing drugs on people in the military, over whom she had authoritah when she was a rear admiral in the Coast Guard and – the big tell – when she was deputy surgeon general during Trump’s first term.” – Eric Peters

Trump Signs Meaningless Executive “Order” on Childhood Vaccine Schedule – Midterm Election Campaign Stunt? – “I have learned that anytime something is published in the corporate media about a presidential “Executive Order” (EO), the best thing to do first is to look up the actual EO to see what it actually says. I knew right away, for example, that these headlines could NOT be true, because the office of the President of the United States cannot dictate vaccine policy, and, in fact, there are no alternatives to the 3-vaccine combo of the MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) vaccine, and it is impossible to get them individually, EO or not, because the drug companies do not even make them.” – Brian Shilhavy

The Greater Good Is Not Your Good – “When government wants something you have — your wealth, your land, your labor, your liberty — someone reaches for this phrase. The greater good. The left uses it. The right uses it. It has synonyms. Common good. Shared sacrifice. For the benefit of society. In the name of public welfare. National interest. Public interest. Stakeholder value. You rarely hear these terms used in the same paragraph as liberty or freedom.” – John Hunt, MD

The Right to Be Left Alone – “What if the federal government captures in real time the contents of every telephone call, email and text message and all the fiber-optic data generated by every person and entity in the United States 24/7?  What if the service providers were coerced into giving the feds continuous physical access to their computers and thus to all the data contained in and passing through those computers?” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

God and His Garden – “What Does the Materia Medica Reveal About Health? They want us dependent, anxious, staring at screens, and swallowing their synthetic poisons so we never look up long enough to notice the green world waiting outside our doors. Step back into the dirt, dear reader. Refuse their manufactured fear, reclaim the architecture of your own mind, and remember that the power to heal was never sold in a bottle: it was planted in the garden long before we got here…” – Jordan Nuttall  – LONG BUT VERY INTERESTING!!!

What I’m about to show you is the legal theory already written, already codified, and already sitting in a rabbi’s law book for 800 years. and the actual institutions that are now being built in real time this November to give that actual theory teeth.” – Tribulation Saints  – ANOTHER VIDEO ON NOAHIDE LAWS.

Making idiots useful -“Hasan is not an intellectual. he’s an embarrassment to submidwittery. Listen to him speak. He’s actually, legitimately stupid. but being a leading light is not his role. Piker is a permission giver. He says wild, accusatory, hateful things and brands out-groups as evil. People follow him not because he’s smart, They follow him because he gives them justification to hate while casting it (at least in their own minds) as justice and tolerance.

Putin Threatened Tit-For-Tat Seizures Of Foreign Vessels – “Putin’s threatened tit-for-tat seizures of foreign vessels came half a year after his senior aide Nikolai Patrushev told local media that “If we don’t respond firmly, the British, French, and even the Baltic states will soon become so brazen that they will attempt to completely block our country’s access to the seas”. The Chairman of the Maritime Board then suggested “permanently stationing significant forces in key maritime routes, including in regions remote from Russia, ready to cool the ardor of Western corsairs.”” – Andrew Korybko

Trump: ‘WE Control Strait Of Hormuz!’ (VIDEO) – “In a Wednesday social media post, President Trump has declared that the US controls the Strait of Hormuz and that the US would likely “keep it.” He repeated his previous claims that Iran has “no navy” and “no air force.” Is this just another in a series of delusions on his part…or is he setting the stage to walk away?” – Ron Paul Liberty Report

Encore at the Cirque Du Hormuz – The Greatest Show on Earth! – “The unhinged nature of Trump’s Iranian debacle continues to descend into something truly bathetic. It calls to mind the popular description of the fall of Rome, one variation of which reads something like: “The average Roman citizen hadn’t noticed their empire had collapsed until one day the roads and bridges simply stopped being repaired.” In this case, American society lives in a state of Normalcy Bias, as spray-tanned politicians bleat about some kind of ‘Golden Age’, while virtually everything associated with the American empire slowly goes to hell in a hand basket.

The Treasury will offer $25 billion of 30-year debt at its monthly auction later on Thursday. In the when-­issued market, where securities are traded before they are actually sold, the new bond has a projected yield of around 5.24% — which would be the highest borrowing cost since 2001.” – Greg Ritchie

THE BIG PICTURE

Flock All The Way Off – “Citizens will be on their best behavior because we’re constantly recording everything that’s going on. — Larry Ellison Founder of Oracle (2024) That above quote says it all. When Larry Ellison uttered it two years ago, there were 40,000 Flock cameras littering American public spheres. Today, the public surveillance dragnet that is… FOR YOUR SAFETY!!! …continues to spread like a cancer across all fifty states with over 120,000 cameras violating the Fourth Amendment rights of Americans around 20 BILLION times each month. These total information awareness cameras are not license plate readers, but facial recognition cameras that also track digital devices, mapping the location and activities of every tax-paying citizen, creating social graphs of association and proximity, based on patterns of behavior. They will combine these social graphs and public movements with online data siphoned off all dumb phones. All of this is being orchestrated by private corporations colluding with the government (subsidized by taxpayers) to create the future shackles for citizens who are not on their best behavior or have bad thoughts about “greatest allies.” Once their digital currency goes online, and behavior (and thoughts) is tied to being able to spend that currency, it’s checkmate in one move for these demons.” – The Good Citizen

It’s not just Fauci – “I’m more than a little sick of talking about Anthony Fauci. The little dude who was so full of himself that he tried to argue every attack on him was an attack on science itself is only sitting free because of a pardon of questionable legality, at least in my opinion. And I find everything we’ve learned about him to be morally disgusting, and the latest revelation is nothing new. It’s not just Fauci who is the problem. It’s damn near everyone involved in the system itself. The problem is that the government is full of people like this. They use their official connections to land lucrative jobs later on, or engage in shady and illegal bribery under the guise of things like book deals or through congressional insider trading. Of all the things I’d like to preserve in this world, the feeling that our government might not always be competent, but it wasn’t truly evil—something I’m not sure was ever actually true, mind you—is at the top of the list.” – Tom Knighton

The Posse Comitatus Presidency: Trump’s Standing Army on American Streets – “The National Guard was just the beginning. One year after President Trump deployed military troops to the nation’s capital, we find ourselves navigating a posse comitatus presidency in which the visual trappings of martial law are the norm, not the exception. The Founders warned against standing armies on American soil, fearing that the military might someday be used not to defend the people but to control them. They understood something Americans are being encouraged to forget: soldiers and police serve fundamentally different purposes. When the president sends troops to police domestic unrest that civilian authorities are capable of handling, he crosses a dangerous constitutional line.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

Until February 2026, an average of 129 merchant ships passed through the Strait of Hormuz each day, carrying about one-third of the crude oil traded by sea and one-fifth of the world’s liquefied natural gas. No other maritime passage concentrates such a large share of the world’s energy wealth in such a confined space; As of mid-July 2026, the situation shows no signs of stabilizing.” – Lorenzo Maria Pacin

Cuba Is Not Venezuela or Jamaica as It Refuses to Become a U.S. Neo-Colony – “Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) recently issued a memo which states: Cuba is not Venezuela. What does that mean? “The same people who keep ’57 Chevrolets on the road with a coat hanger will wreak havoc against a foreign-imposed regime.” In 1975, Jamaica’s socialist Prime Minister Michael Manley expressed support for Cuba’s solidarity with the Angola liberation struggle. The days of Michael Manley’s support of Cuba are long gone, but recently, current Jamaica Prime Minister Andrew Holness expressed concern for the humanitarian crisis in Cuba. As a result, soon thereafter, the U.S. directed Jamaica to end its five-decade program with Cuba to provide doctors and other health-care workers to Jamaica’s poor, and Jamaica complied. Sovereignty means the power of a country to control its own government. If Jamaica needed to comply, is it sovereign?” – Riva Enteen

Putin Threatens Seizures Of European Ships Over EU’s “Piracy & Banditry” – “Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday addressed the persisting issue of European governments and navies seizing what they deem Russian ‘shadow fleet’ vessels off Europe’s coast. The latest European Union sanctions package passed last month stipulates that EU members can sell the oil or any seized cargo obtained from these ‘shadow fleet’ vessels. Putin has reiterated Kremlin outrage at this scheme, condemning it as “piracy and banditry”. This after Sweden has lately declared its intent to hand seized Russian grain over to Ukraine.” – Tyler Durden

Ukraine Is The West’s Top Proxy For Fighting Russia In Africa – “They’re duking it out in Mali, Libya, and Sudan right now. Deputy Foreign Minister Georgy Borisenko drew renewed attention to last summer’s claims that Ukraine is responsible for terrorism all across Africa in his relevant remarks from late July. According to him, Ukrainian drone instructors train armed groups in Mali, Libya, and Sudan. The first is one of Russia’s top allies on the continent, the second’s de facto independent eastern half provides an air bridge to the latter via Niger, and the third still plans to host a long-delayed Russian naval base.” – Andrew Korybko
