Nothing New Under The Sun 2016

 

THE BIG PICTURE

What Is Most Important To Us? – “What does Jesus have against wealth and riches? Why does He say it will be hard for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven? If we work hard and make good use of our resources, we should expect—and Jesus teaches—that we will prosper. To some degree, we will grow rich. It is only when we make riches the priority that we encounter a spiritual dilemma.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Prison time for discussing the Great Replacement? French left-wing lawmakers push for new draconian law – “The French could face prison for mentioning the Great Replacement under a new proposal. The mayor of Trappes, Ali Rabeh, is calling for a change in the law to criminalize those who claim that replacement immigration is occurring against the ethnic French population. Rabeh, who holds dual Moroccan and French citizenship, suggests that the Constitution could even be amended to pass the draconian speech law.” – Remix Newsa Staff

Russell Brand ‘cowering in fear’ as hundreds of inmates shout abusive chants – prison insider – “Former comedian and actor Russell Brand is said to be ‘cowering in fear’ after hundreds of inmates taunted him with a derogatory chant at his current residence HMP Wandsworth” – Charl Wright

Highly Questionable Conviction of Russell Brand – “I’m sure that Russell Brand was an aggressively promiscuous man during the period in question. He himself has admitted it. Thus, if he had been tried for being—at this earlier stage in his life—a selfish, sleazy, and arrogant jerk, it would probably be easy to adduce sufficient evidence to find him guilty as charged. However, it strikes me as impossible to draw conclusions—beyond a reasonable doubt—about allegedly criminal sexual behavior that took place decades ago, with no supporting physical evidence such as medically documented injuries, no eyewitness testimony of the alleged acts, and only hearsay testimony from the victims’ friends and colleagues that is ambiguous and fragmentary.” – John Leake

Was Jack the Ripper A Freemason? – “When Ancestry & the Record Reveal Secrets” – Jordan Nuttall

The U.S. Political Establishment Has Neither Use Nor Sympathy for Workers – “Lessons from My Parents.  My parents were both factory workers when they met after World War II. They both knew want during the Great Depression; coincidentally, both were raised by mothers whose husbands had left them. They knew tough times; learned hard lessons. After fighting for a dime pay raise at the factory where he worked, my dad said he learned that the rich have neither sympathy nor use for the poor. He also learned that the harder he worked physically, the less he got paid.” – Bill Astore

What the Midterm Results Really Mean (VIDEO )with Victor Davis Hanson: – “” – American Thought Leaders – “What does a president do when he’s lost the House and Senate by wide margins?

The Data Center Moratorium Madness Is Beijing’s Biggest Gift – “Barely 48 hours after the midterms, Bernie Sanders posted four words that should alarm anyone who cares about American prosperity and security. “National data center moratorium now.” Representative Yassamin Ansari went further and said that pausing AI development should be a Day One priority for the new Democratic majority in the House. ” – Daniel Lacalle

Voters demanded economic relief. Trump and Democrats face tough choices on how to deliver – “But as long as rising prices keep making middle-class lives less affordable, Democrats and Republicans alike face the risk of angering and alienating voters in the next election cycle. “Until inflation and interest rates are under control, the likelihood of change elections is going to be high on an ongoing basis,” said Marc Goldwein, senior vice president at the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.” – Josh Boak

What Is The Credit Market Telling Us? – “All is not smooth in the credit markets. There are signs of change upon the waters and in the sky.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

Let’s drink to the hard-working people
Let’s drink to the lowly of birth
Raise your glass to the good and the evil
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth

Say a prayer for the common-foot soldier
Spare a thought for his back-breaking work
Say a prayer for his wife and his children
Who burn the fires and who still till the earth

When I search a faceless crowd
A swirling mass of gray and black and white
They don’t look real to me
In fact, they look so strange

Raise your glass to the hard-working people
Let’s drink to the uncounted heads
Let’s think of the wavering millions
Who need leading but get gamblers instead

Spare a thought for the stay-at-home voter
Empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows
And a parade of the gray-suited grafters
A choice of cancer or polio

When I look in the faceless crowd
A swirling mass of grays and black and white
They don’t look real to me
Oh don’t they look so strange?

Let’s drink to the hard-working people
Let’s think of the lowly of birth
Spare a thought for the rag taggy people
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth

Let’s drink to the hard-working people
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth
Let’s drink to the two thousand million
Let’s think of the humble of birth

( Salt Of The Earth by Mick Jagger and Keith Richard )

 

THE BIG PICTURE

The Globalists Just Came Out Of Hiding For A Secretive Summit In China – “Sadly, most people tend to have short memories, but through the majority of Joe Biden’s disastrous presidency the Davos crowd was absolutely frenetic with activity. The World Economic Forum and all orbiting think tanks were crowing about covid and how “this was the moment” that they were going to dramatically deconstruct capitalism and western norms. The establishment media was operating full force in support of the globalist regime, spreading non-stop propaganda in favor of perpetual lockdowns, perpetual vaccines, vax passports, a new society revolving entirely around medical tyranny and constant fear over a virus with a tiny median Infection Fatality rate of 0.23%. In other words, billions of people were supposed to give up their freedoms and bow to the technocrats to save the world from a virus that 99.8% of the population would easily survive. I still don’t think many people realize how close we came to going off the edge of the cliff. We were a breath away from total Orwellian tyranny or outright civil war. Then, suddenly, the noise was gone. ” – Brandon Smith

I Hate Discussing the Subject of Politics, but Here Goes – “I do realize that this mid-term ‘election’ cycle that just concluded is consuming the fake and alternative news cycles, but that should be considered proof positive that it is all a scam. But really, who gives a damn about such nonsense? The only ones who pretend to care are either left or right, red or blue, republican or democrat. I must also include the ‘libertarian’ crowd who also desire rule. These people, and all who ‘believe’ in government, are the biggest problem to mankind.” – Gary D. Barnett

Why Washington Ignores What 90% of Us Want – “How a handful of insiders blocked the policies voters wanted, cost Republicans Congress, and are now moving back to financing the other party” – A Midwestern Doctor

Risk On. The Empire Strikes Back via the U.S. Midterms, Threatening Us All. – “Yeah, it’s serious. And They are Stupid. And Destructive. And Must Be Defeated. So the whole 13 Royal families of Europe, being Luciferians who still dominate us through banking and debt, and that the British Oligarchy literally seeded communism throughout the east and disgusting sexual practices and Fabian socialism through the west in order to control us, is to me, plausible. But not proved. Until I discovered that most of America’s debt is held by the Bank of New York, which is private, and its owners are members of the 13 royal and sub-royal families of Europe.” – Elizabeth Nickson

Rockefeller Told Him the Plan – “No cash. Total control. No escape. No thanks. Some of you may have stumbled across old videos with former filmmaker and activist Aaron Russo, particularly his 2007 interview with (limited hangout, half-truther and likely CIA asset) Alex Jones, in which Russo described private conversations with a man he identified as Nick Rockefeller. These remain Aaron Russo’s uncorroborated recollections of private conversations. No independent evidence from the time of the alleged meetings or statements has been publicly established in the sources surrounding the interview. This is the bottom line, regardless of the status of any single personal anecdote or testimony. Even the dimmest of skeptics should be able to perform a modicum of study and recognize that today’s developments largely substantiate Russo’s claims.” – Where illusion ends… The Do Not Comply Guy

Insulated Empires: The Elite Playbook for the Next Global Blackout – “As engineered shortages loom and governments issue stockpile warnings, the ultra-wealthy retreat to fortified bunkers while working families shoulder the cost of controlled collapse. From his superyacht off Corfu, Nathaniel Rothschild fires a five-word tweet into the void: “Life can change in a blink.” To millions, it isn’t an idle musing; it is an arrogant ultimatum from an oligarch who holds humanity’s fate on a string.” – Amy Simon.

NEWS

The Midterm Destruction of the White Electorate – “Presidents invariably see the “opposing” party gain seats in every midterm election. Republicans always predict a “Red Wave,” and Democrats always predict a “Blue Wave.” It’s all a game, whereby one putrid party replaces the other, vowing to fix all the problems they created. Then they create new problems for the other party to fix. But I think this election might be a dire indication of the future. A future that was created by a combination of dumbed down White conservatives and smartass indoctrinated White liberals. With the perpetual hand of the non-Irish in the background (and sometimes forefront).” – Donald Jeffries-

Lame duck? Why Trump is more dangerous now than ever and likely to turn on conservatives – “Donald Trump may be down but it would be a mistake to count him out. Because he is not a “normal” president, he will not be in any way tamed or constrained by what turned out to be a humiliating electoral referendum on his performance in office over the last two years. In the face of such overwhelming numbers, most normal politicians would take the hint and back off of their failed agenda. Trump will not pump the brakes or coast through his final two years as a so-called lame duck. He will hit the gas pedal.” – Leo Hohmann

Is the Fix Already In? – “How Despicable Are Democratic Leaders? What I fear is what Chris Hedges and Ralph Nader fear: a Democratic establishment that thinks business as usual is the answer. The dishonest approach of Nancy Pelosi as Speaker after the 2006 midterms and the demoralizing approach of Barack Obama after he was elected president in 2008.” – Bill Astore

The Miller Doctrine: Trump’s “wartime consigliere” – “Stephen Miller is no Susie Wiles: He believes in almost limitless presidential power, considers the Democratic Party an extremist organization, and dreams of ruthless crackdowns on immigration and foreign adversaries. Why it matters: Miller, the new White House chief of staff, isn’t just unlike anyone who’s had the job under Trump — he’s unlike any to occupy the powerful position in the modern era. He puts the hard in hard-liner and understands how to pull the levers of power to get his way and make the U.S. government a MAGA machine.” – Marc Caputo and Alex Isenstadt

Thomas Massie wants to impeach Hegseth over war in Iran – “Outgoing Republican U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky is preparing to force a House vote next week on eight articles of impeachment against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth unless the Pentagon chief resigns, citing an “unlawful war” in Iran that violated the War Powers Resolution, produced massive civilian casualties, and was launched in service of Israeli interests rather than those of the United States.” – Patrick Delaney

With The Election Fallout Will Trump Listen To The People Or To Israel – “The markets are also following the belief that Iran strikes are over as oil is down some 10%. But Trump still has his ear in Bibi’s mouth and may strike simply out of revenge for his political collapse. His ego unable to accept that he is anything less than The Greatest Man on Earth.” – Helena Glass

In Jericho, Israeli Settlers Violently Seize and Occupy Palestinian Homes – “The takeover by Israeli settlers of homes inside a Palestinian city in the occupied West Bank represents a dangerous escalation in Israel’s dispossession of Palestinians across the territory.” – Katrine Dige Houmøller

US military carries out new targeted strikes on Iran as Tehran’s leaders weigh mediator’s proposals – Aamer Madhani, Samy Magdy and MickelleL. Price

Democrats on notice, midterms a massive protest against US wars, not just Trump (VIDEO) with Karen Kwiatkowski – “The spectacular drubbing that President Trump and his Republican Party received in the midterm elections was not merely a vote against a corrupt and backsliding administration. It was a massive protest against Washington’s war against Iran and all US-led conflicts. This is something that the Democratic Party leadership should take note of. They should view the Congressional gains made this week not as an endorsement of their policies. The Democrats are equally culpable and held in contempt for their record of warmaking. Karen Kwiatkowski, a renowned Pentagon whistleblower and critic of US foreign policy, argues that American voters are increasingly aware of the militarism that drives the US political system and economy.” – The WORD with Finian Cunningham  – GOOD LISTEN. HAVE LINKED MANY ARTICLES BY BOTH IN THE PAST!!!!

Democrats Drop ‘Affordability’ Charade After Midterm Wins, Immediately Pivot to ‘Get Trump’ Agenda – “Prominent Democrats who campaigned on lowering the cost of gas, groceries, and housing used their first statements after winning the House to put the Trump administration on notice.” – David Lindfield

A Dangerous Woman: Democrats Adopt Soviet Rhetoric to Condemn Stevens as Mentally Ill – “Haley Stevens is a dangerous woman. That message is echoing across liberal cable stations and websites. Only recently embraced as the best candidate for the Michigan Senate nomination, Stevens is now being portrayed as unstable and menacing by her self-described friends. Other Democrats launched into sexist attacks or declared her a “traitor” that should be expelled from the party. Haley Stevens has the misfortune of now being an object lesson for anyone who stands against the far left.” – Jonathan Turley,

About 2 million people had been unemployed for at least 27 weeks, accounting for 27.6% of all unemployed workers. These workers have maxed out most or all unemployment benefits from the government.” – Alex Harring

Why America’s Money Supply Would Vanish Without Debt – “To most people, money feels like a tangible asset. A solid, hard-earned reward for physical or intellectual labor. However, when you stop to ponder the broad financial machine, the modern currency system functions in an entirely different way. Every digital figure displayed on your screen and every physical bill folded in your wallet came into existence for one simple reason. Someone, somewhere, took on debt and promised to pay it back with interest. In truth, our present economy floats entirely on borrowed time.” – MN Gordon

The numbers are a little. . . queer. I mean queer in the old-school sense. Peculiar. Puzzling. Kind of. . . fishy. . . maybe statistically impossible?

While officials were quick to state there was no immediate sign of a cyberattack, the structural takeaway is far more terrifying: it doesn’t take a hostile foreign power or a hacker collective to freeze your wealth. A single equipment malfunction at a centralized hub can instantly turn your life savings into digital numbers you can’t touch.” – The Silver Academy

Gold and silver rally – “Mid-term election drama has gold and silver sharply higher, while oil, bond yields, and the dollar ease.

Accordingly, the process should begin with one clear decision: what the gun is for.” – Ask A Prepper Staff

Election Results-Politics Are A Distraction (VIDEO) – “This isn’t a political issue. This is a spiritual one. And I really don’t understand like at what point are people actually going to understand this,right? We have had both our left arms and our right arms in full control and our world is still always a mess. When one gets in full control, everybody wants the other arm in control. And when that arm gets in control, everybody wants the other one back. Look at ourworld. We all know that our world is an absolute dumpster fire and has been a dumpster fire for how many years? This isn’t getting better because this is not a political issue. It is a spiritual one. And guess what? When we actually talk about that, when we talk about the fact that this is all spiritual, that it’s not actually political and we mention who actually runs  our government, those videos get hindered because they don’t want you to know the truth.” – Ashley Hays  – GOOD SHORT ONE FROM ASHLEY!!!

We pay its taxes, obey its laws and regulations, finance its wars and submit to its surveillance. We are told that all of this is necessary for personal safety, collective prosperity and national security. Yet the government has become totalitarian while individuals have become powerless.” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

ELECTION ANALYSIS: The names and faces may change, but the beast system remains in place – Leo Hohmann

Midterm’s Over: Project 2025 & Agenda 2030 Proceed as Planned – A Uniparty of Stakeholders – “The Midterms are Finally Over and a Trump endorsement proved The Kiss of Death. Was that part of the stage play? To destroy the Republican Party and create a single Unitary Party as is proclaimed in Project 2025 and the WEF Agenda 2030? Will all the fake Trump appointments who declared themselves Republicans before the election revert back to their Democrat status? The corruption is so broad within America – it is quite possible.” – Helena Glass

Rhodes Scholar, Soros Ties, Defends All Things LGBTQ, Vaccine Bolshevik, Rothschild Ties…New Drapes On Same System – “HOW CAN PEOPLE BE SO STUPID AND GULLIBLE?

‘GOVERNMENT’ IS A MAFIA – GOLD & SILVER ARE THE DAGGERS (VIDEO) with Bix Weir – “The Bolsheviks have ousted the RINOs in the battle for AmeriKa, and one thing is now more certain than ever: The Dollar’s days are numbered and what’s coming for those who unprepared is very dark indeed because “Government” is little more than organized crime, a ‘Mafia’ if you will, and gold and silver in physical form are the daggers that will help you slay the beast before it leaves you penniless.” – SGT Report

The Election was a Rejection of Trump and Psychopathic Authoritarianism – ” From various ends of the political spectrum, Americans voted against perceived Psychopathic Authoritarianism. Left leaning voters voted Democrat. Right leaning voters didn’t vote, voted independent, or even voted for the Democrat in some instances. Voters, whether Republican, Democrat, or Independent, rejected perceived Psychopathic Authoritarianism in their own way.” – Dr. Joseph Sansone

Will the Apologists Apologize? – “Will the apologists for Trump’s betrayals ever apologize for defending him when he not only betrayed us by starting the war but mocked us for opposing it? We have been paying at the pump – and pretty much everywhere else – for what Trump did, just the same we did back in 2020 (when Trump didn’t end the “emergency” that led to years of misery for Americans. Trump’s failure to stop the spread – of “masking” and mass absentee balloting months before the 2020 selection – led to the selection of Joe Biden and we all got to pay for that. There is perhaps a way to salvage something out of the wreckage. It begins with dumping Trump. He has got to go. For the same reason that you can’t clean the toilet when there’s still a turd in the bowl.” – Eric Peters

My Faith in My Fellow Americans Is Justified – “and what we really can do next. My fellow Americans are a mostly good and decent people, and by “Americans” I mean ALL American citizens and residents. As silly as this may sound to some, I have faith in them. They justified that faith for me on Tuesday. I knew Ohioans would recoil in disgust and outrage at Vivek Ramaswamy. I knew most Americans were horrified at the genocide and wanted to do something about it, in a country where there is almost zero organization of the working class. I knew most of my compatriots were utterly disgusted by the Epstein Files and the truly evil people in them. The genocidal, racist apartheid state of Israel is now politically radioactive in the United States. It will not survive. So don’t tell me, or the Palestinians who are rightfully hopeful about this situation, that American elections never matter.” – Ohio Barbarian  – WELL SAID BY THE BARBARIAN!!

The Suicide Party – ” Every election is the most important election in history, the last election that will ever matter, and then once again nothing ever happens. The new party assumes office, commences gorging on the corruption machine, fritters away its time and political capital on trivial nonsense, and steadfastly refuses to take action on even the most popular 80/20 issues.” – John Carter  – GOOD READ FROM JOHN!!!!!!!!

Send in the “Coolers”! – “Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer are the Democratic Party’s coolers. They’re being sent in by the house (the owners and donors in America’s casino-style capitalism) to cool any real change that might hurt the bottom line of the rich. And they’re good at their jobs. Another “cooler” is the “liberal” New York Times. I caught this summary this morning of the Democratic Party’s goals come next year: Basically, it’s a return to the Biden status quo. I like the part about curtailing a war that has raised fuel costs. Is that the worst part of the Iran War—that it’s raised fuel costs? And why “curtail” instead of ending the war? Isn’t the war illegal, immoral, unconstitutional, and disastrous? Also, I like the part about going after Trump and his family for profiting from insider trading and the like. Speaking of that, Nancy Pelosi and many other leading Democrats should also “lawyer up.”” – Bill Astore

THE BLUE TSUNAMI: It May Be the Biggest Election Sweep in History, but Will it Change Anything that Matters to Americans? – “Elections change things (sometimes), but this one changed almost everything, though that may not change anything that matters under our uniparty system. We shall see if both parties just return to focusing on their endless divide-and-conquer strategy for America and if both also keep voting for endless wars.” – David Haggith

🌊 Blue Wave Floods The US, But The Storm Keeps Raging And It’s Business As Usual “Clowns to the left me, jokers to the right, and here I am stuck in the middle with you !” – The WinePress

Deporting Vivek + More Midterm Post-Mortem Missives – “A slew of toxic Swamp monsters lost their respective races on Tuesday that any decent GOP candidate, standard midterm shifts away from the incumbent part in the White House notwithstanding, would have won handily. Lindsey Graham’s ditzy nepo-sister went down in flames; South Carolina, of all places, will now have a Democrat senator for the next six years. Governor Greg Abbot, who once declared Texas “land for the Indian community”, took the L. (Texas, once a GOP stronghold and an electoral college bulwark for Republicans, is now effectively a blue state, with every statewide office held by a Democrat.) But none deserved to go down in ignominy more, or are more emblematic of the rot in the political class, than pharma scammer dirtbag Vivek Ramaswamy.” – Ben Bartee

Marco Rubio ‘on resignation watch’ from Trump administration after midterms disaster – “The US secretary of state is thought to be preparing for a presidential run in 2028 and will likely want to distance himself from Trump, The Independent can reveal.” – David Maddox and Andrew Feinberg

After Mamdani, Los Angeles Is Next: Socialist Nithya Raman Projected To Oust Karen Bass – “If the count holds, America’s two largest cities will both be run by Democratic Socialists…” – Tyler Durden

Midterms Aftermath: MAGA Movement Post-Mortem – “The long-awaited and momentous midterms elections have come to an end, and the result is one that most of us have anticipated for a long time. Since the start of Trump’s disastrous Iran war we have written repeatedly about the time crunch that existed: Trump had a limited window to decisively “win” the war and get out, or else it would seep into the midterms as a massive, festering wound, poisoning the Republicans’ chances of victory. The most telling result from last night was the massive shift of the key 18-29 male demographic—the very same one that should have been MAGA’s most stalwart vanguard:” – Simplicius⁠

Neocons Down! May The GOP Go The Way Of The Whigs, – “The GOP’s “war party” of neocons and global interventionists is surely today’s equivalent of the Whig pro-slavers. The former’s pro-war policy position is both fundamentally wrong as both a practical and moral matter, and it’s been by-passed by history, to boot.” – David Stockman

MAGA Can Only Be Saved By Trump Cutting Grand Deals With Russia, Iran, & China – Andrew Korybko

Germany Prepares Hospital Trains for 1,000 NATO Casualties a Day – “Defense Minister Boris Pistorius has warned that Russia could develop the capability to attack NATO territory by 2029. That is an assessment of potential military capability, not proof that Moscow has decided to launch such an attack. Yet Germany is already conducting exercises to test the evacuation of wounded soldiers from NATO’s eastern flank.” – Martin Armstrong

 

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS 

Despite Lower Rates, Demand for Mortgages to Purchase a Home Is Stuck at Rock-Bottom: Is 7%+ the No-Go Zone? – “Purchase mortgage applications are a forward-looking indicator of the direction of “pending” sales and then “closed” sales to be reported in December and later. This is a bad sign because pending home sales in September had collapsed to record lows in the data, and these pending sales include cash deals.” – Wolf Richter

Quick! Find Another Economic Bubble! – “The title has been “the answer” now for 20+ years. It won’t work this time. When “new, young tech bros” made all manner of insane promises of roses, gold-lined streets and a chicken in every pot in the 1990s they were all full of it. Its not that a few of them would not turn out to be right — it was that it was mathematically impossible for all of them to be right, or even more than a tiny percentage to be right. The “next answer” of course was housing, and we all know how that ended in 2008. So-called “AI” was always the same sort of chimera. 30 seconds with a pencil and a list of critical path elements to actually build, deploy and sell it showed several hard physical and economics limits that made the promises impossible on the timelines put forward, The credit door has slammed closed on the big AI companies and it will do so on any and all deals for data center builds and similar here in the coming weeks and months.” – Karl Denninger

THE BIG PICTURE

Politicians Come and Go. The Machinery of Oppression Remains – “A revolution can topple a tyrant without dismantling tyranny. An election can replace a president without curbing the powers of the presidency. A new political majority can inherit the instruments of repression and adapt them to their own purposes. In other words, what good is a political change if the weapons of oppression merely change hands?” – John & Nisha Whitehead

The Media’s Propaganda Machine Is Malfunctioning – “Your brain is the battlefield. Information is no longer confined to a book, catalogued in a quiet library. It is blaring at us from all directions. Different cable news hosts on competing cable news networks repeat the same words and phrases all day long until we find ourselves reaching for those words while having polite conversations in real life. See the problem? Over the last thirty years, the public started to see through this sophisticated network of information warfare and recognize it as the propaganda that it has always been. The expanding web of the Internet allowed people to learn information that had been hidden from them.” – J.B. Shurk

Choose your doom carefully – “The marketplace of doom is out there. We have turned fear into a form of civic participation these days. Have you chosen yet? It is time to sort out the “dangerous and divisive” world stuff again. Our Prime Minister is constantly reminding us of this rather dark observation. Once upon a time, of course, leaders of countries going through hard times were in the business of encouraging and uplifting their populace with optimistic speeches. But them days are long gone.” – Sylvia Shawcross

Why Should I Care If Nobody Else Does? Sharing – “3 good reasons why. This life is not easy, don’t let the apathy around you wear you down.” – Kate Dreston

Cynicism Should Win the Mid-Term Elections – “In an era of clueless voters and profoundly dishonest candidates, cynicism is one of the last best checks on political power run amok. Regardless of the final vote count in Tuesday’s midterm congressional elections, both Republicans and Democrats have earned all the distrust they will reap. Any hope that elections would safeguard the Constitution should have perished after 9/11. Consider the race for a US Senate seat in Michigan.” – James Bovard 

Pedophile President: Trump & Epstein Argued Over Who would Take 13-Year-Old’s Virginity, New House Report States – “Anew Democrat-led House Committee on the Judiciary report released this week sheds more light on President Donald Trump’s close relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The Document, entitled “‘We Have Certain Things in Common, Jeffrey’: The Case Against Donald Trump Emerging in the Epstein Files and DOJ’s Desperate Efforts to Cover it Up,” is based on the accounts of eleven women, five of whom alleged Trump raped or sexually assaulted them in the presence of the disgraced financier. Two of those women were 13-year-old children at the time of the alleged events.” – Alan MacLeod

Election musings – “And the path forward. I realize this is not what a lot of people want to hear, but this election outcome was obvious and foregone. and the GOP caused this.The dems did not win, the pachyderms lost. It’s not the media or the RINOs. It’s a lack of honesty and inspiration. The dems get voters to the ballot booth because when elected, they do the stuff they said they would. The republicans wind up with voters who say “why bother?” because they don’t.” – El Gato Malo – GOOD ONE FROM EL GATO!!!

A Blue Wave Cometh – “Democrats Win Big. But it isn’t a moment where, as the saying goes, we can all go back to brunch and let a Democrat-controlled Congress handle things. We have to stay involved, for the mess in Washington is very much a bipartisan one. The “new” House and Senate majority leaders will be Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer, corporate Democrats who support Zionist Israel and gleefully accept money and marching orders from AIPAC.” – Bill Astore

U.S. Politics: Noise, Then Chaos – “Wow, talk about F-ing around and finding out. America’s neo-cons (bloodthirsty empire builders who want to bomb the world into submission) kicked the anti-war MAGA faction out of the Republican Party, then proceeded to start a disastrous Middle East war — during a mid-term election campaign! Yesterday, they got the most brutal electoral rebuke since the Great Depression. Now we face two years of noise, as newly emboldened Democrats push policies resembling those that have landed Europe on its cultural and financial deathbed, most of which will be blocked by a lame duck president whose only remaining weapon is a veto pen. The result: “sound and fury” gridlock that produces headlines but little actual change. Leading, of course, to an epic financial crisis and currency reset.” – John Rubino  – GOOD INSIGHTS FROM JOHN!!!!!!!!!!

How Iran defeated Trump’s Israel First GOP Trump wrote his own epitaph when he declared, “If people ever got tired of me in the US, I’ll move to Israel and become prime minister. Trump launched a failed war on Iran for Israel last February, as his NSC director and Secretary of State Marco Rubio admitted. Now, the war has come home.” – Max Blumenthal

Trump’s Legacy Will Ultimately Be Determined By The Outcome Of The Third Gulf War – “If the conflict drags on or he provokes Iran into obliterating the Gulf’s energy infrastructure in retaliation for being nuked, for example, then the resultant surge in the cost of living that was responsible for the Republicans’ latest bloodbath will sweep MAGA into the dustbin of history in 2028.” – Andrew Korybko

Sea Change: The Significance of the American Midterm Elections – “And why denouncing voters is both pointless and bloody-damned boring. Well, it isn’t the best-case scenario for American Democrats, but it’s close, and it would have been all the way had it not been for the decades of dashed hope delivered to voters by the Democrats themselves. I’m talking to you, Barack Obama, and to you, Bill and Hillary Clinton. There’s no point in talking to Joe Biden. Is he still alive? I neither know nor care. It’s still a sea change election, a lasting realignment that will carry the Dems at least through 2028.” – Ohio Barbarian

MAGA IS DEAD: Midterm Elections End In Blue Wave Of Communism – “It literally can’t get much worse, and in just two years Americans have completely turned on MAGA:” – 2nd Smartest Guy in the World

A Great Antiwar Victory – “Trump and the Republicans richly deserved this defeat. They paid a steep price for the president’s lawlessness, corruption, and warmongering and the GOP’s pathetic enabling of all of it. The economic shock from the president’s criminal war in Iran and the added costs of his pointless trade wars undoubtedly played a major role in turning people against Republicans across the country.” – Daniel Larison

Europe and America’s Dystopian Nightmare Needs To End NOW – “Having never fully recovered economically after the Pandemic, European governments mismanaged growth in exchange for more war participation particularly in Ukraine and Sudan while losing control of their colonial states in Africa which was based on piracy. This piracy model is exactly what Trump is utilizing. Africa prefers the China model of building vs destroying. Today that Model is on display as China court’s the Middle East. Neither Soros or Rothschild have any impact on China because China’s banks are all state owned – interest rates are low and fixed, corruption and fraud are not tolerated at all and consequences are severe.” – Helena Glass

“Kill Me Clinics”: Disturbing New Industry Quietly Spreads Across America – “A controversial new industry is slowly taking root across the United States, with so-called “kill me clinics” charging terminally ill patients thousands of dollars to end their lives, according to the Daily Mail. In New York, where assisted suicide became legal in August, a boutique clinic called Quietus is charging patients up to $12,000 to end their lives.The emergence of these clinics has sparked concerns that assisted suicide is becoming a lucrative business, with critics warning that financial incentives could put vulnerable patients at risk. “It’s sadly no surprise to see kill-me clinics popping up in New York, because most doctors don’t want to touch assisted suicide with a ten-foot pole,” Jessica Rodgers of the Patient’s Rights Action Fund told the Mail.” – Tyler Durden

Food wars heating up: Six more European countries report grocery store cooling systems hacked, food destroyed – “The food wars continue to rage as hackers struck a second time in less than a month against grocery store cooling systems in Europe on Monday. On October 11, an unknown entity hacked into the refrigeration controllers at up to 700 French supermarkets and set them to defrost mode overnight, causing their refrigerators to overheat. The cold chain disruption forced supermarkets to discard thousands of pounds of spoiled goods, resulting in losses estimated to total tens of millions of euros. But on Monday, November 2, the attack was more widespread as cyber attackers made sure six countries felt the pain.” – Leo Hohmann

And then there is the castle brickwork across Britain and Europe, they all show signs of warping as if exposed to temperatures far beyond what any known ancient fire could produce. Across the world, the pattern repeats, doesn’t it? Buildings half-sunken into the earth, their lowest floors hidden beneath layers of hardened mud. Cathedral walls hold bricks that have warped and twisted as if softened like wax. And there are entire regions where the ruins used to be stone before something turned them into flowing, petrified slag. What happened to these cities?” – Jordan Nuttall

NEWS

Midterm Fears and Trump’s Iran War Manifesto Rumblings – ““For weeks, Trump has been contemplating a renewal of hostilities aimed at forcing Iran to negotiate, and advisers told us that a new round of attacks could come soon after Tuesday’s midterms…” ~ The Atlantic. What is wrong with this statement? It assumes that bombing a country and its people for the purpose of annihilation has anything to do with ‘negotiations. Iran has repeatedly come to the table for negotiations only to be met by bombs from Trump. They have presented their formal requests – they have met repeatedly with negotiators including Qatar, Turkey, Russia, and others to mediate the outcome yet the media continues to make ridiculous assertions that are simply not leveled in reality.” – Helena Glass

Republicans Deserve to Lose, but Democrats Do Not Deserve to Win. – “Anyone wondering why the Republicans are facing historic losses in this week’s midterm elections should consider these two numbers: 3.7 percent and 0.6 precent. The first is the latest one year increase in prices from the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The second is how much wages and salaries for private industry workers are reported to have fallen in the last year when adjusted to account for the rise in prices. Even Americans with increasing incomes are struggling with inflation.” – Ron Paul

Trump is livestreaming a bizarre AI Lego video in a last-minute bid for midterm votes – “As a list of Trump’s ‘achievements’ during his second term floats past, the AI version of the President waves and turns to supporters while lo-fi techno beats play in the background.” – Sarah Hooper

Election Day Is a Test. Please Tell Me Somebody Studied. – “No pressure, America. It’s just a little pass/fail exercise with staggering consequences and no option to retake it next Tuesday.” – Jenna McCarthy

Midterms: “Despair or Extinction” – “The only thing the Republicans can say for themselves is that they aren’t Democrats. President Trump promised “America First” but then chose Washington’s business as usual of more war, more debt, and more inflation. The Democrats are dumb opportunistic wretches. Regardless of which political party gains control of Congress or the White House, the American people—especially of the working and middle classes—are thoroughly abused by the US government. Both political parties serve shadowy, undeclared interests that have little to do with the interests of ordinary citizens.” – John Leake

The US’ Claims Of Canadian Meddling Are Interesting & Ironic – “they’re ironic because the examples cited are a sliver of how the US regularly meddles in other countries’ elections.” – Andrew Korybko

Is Trump really going to cut off $4 billion in annual U.S. aid to Israel, or is this an Election Day stunt? – “What does the U.S. get in return for its money, other than faulty Israeli ‘intelligence’? Latest example? Israel claims Iran is getting ready to use chemical weapons against its Arab neighbors.” – Leo Hohmann

How Prediction Markets Are Being Weaponized and Why Democrats Must Be Stopped Today – “Prediction markets are easier to manipulate than polls or legacy media, which is why they’re so dangerous today. What they don’t tell you about prediction markets is that they’re not “odds.” They’re not even indicators of likelihood. The “odds” they claim are based solely on money invested into one side or another. All it takes is a few motivated wealthy people, NGOs, and PACs to tilt the “odds” on any given race, or in this case, pretty much all of them. Democrats figured that out and have acted upon it with dark money. Republicans either didn’t figure it out or chose not to act.” – JD Rucker

Donald Trump Jr. Complains That Democrats ‘Want to Make Ohio a State’ – “Trump Jr. made the comments at a campaign event in Swanton, Ohio, on Monday, Nov. 2. Ohio has been a state since 1803” – Madison E. Goldberg  – LOOKS LIKE THE STUPIDITY APPLE DIDN’T FALL TO FAR FROM THE TREE!!!

Iran Rejects Latest Draft Proposal To End War: US ‘Must Act On 7 Conditions’ To Reopen Hormuz – Tyler Durden

A Nuclear Strike on Iran? – “Rumors of Madness. It would be among the worst war crimes imaginable and would increase the likelihood of other nuclear powers resorting to nuclear weapons, e.g. Russia against Ukraine. It remains unclear whether Iran has a nuclear device already or whether it’s in the advanced stages of developing one. It is clear the U.S. has more than five thousand nuclear warheads and bombs and that Israel may have more than three hundred. There is no sense to striking Iran with a nuclear weapon, but again that doesn’t mean it won’t happen. President Trump seems eager to do what other U.S. presidents have “failed” to do, and he’s being pressured by the Zionists and Bibi Netanyahu in particular. Trump has boasted several times of his ability to annihilate Iran, its entire civilization, if it refuses to bow to his will” – Bill Astore

Tucker Carlson Claims Trump Planning to Nuke Iran. But Could the US Really Pull It Off? – “We examine the likelihood of such a mission being successful, and how it would potentially be carried out. Yesterday Tucker Carlson made an explosive claim that under pressure from Netanyahu, Trump is considering using a nuclear weapon against Iran’s Pickaxe Mountain in order to “shut down” the country’s nuclear program once and for all:” – Simplicius

The ground on which Europe stands is shaking – “No European leader/s of stature have any feasible plan how to end the Ukraine entanglement, nor any clear idea how to fund continuing the war without crashing the very financial architecture that underpins ‘liberal’ Europe. This would risk collapsing the EU’s foundational myth guaranteeing citizens a prosperous standard of living.” – Alastair Crooke

Haiti’s prime minister Fils-Aimé speaks out as concerns over El Salvador’s troops deepen – “Alix Didier Fils-Aimé said Haiti, which is battling powerful gangs, is responsible for the direction of foreign forces in his country. “The international force is not here to replace the state,” he said. “They’re here to support us.” Fils-Aimé was flanked from behind by an army colonel from El Salvador, a leader of the U.N.-backed gang suppression force, and officials from Haiti’s army and police. It appeared to be a show of unity as concerns grow about Salvadoran troops acting unilaterally.” – Danica Coto and Eves Sanon

At $6 A Gallon For Heating Oil… Grandpa’s Woodshed Starts Looking Like A Bank Vault – ” Heating oil has reached roughly $6.14 a gallon in the Northeast, and a fill-up at that price can knock a respectable hole in a household budget. Put 200 gallons in the tank and you’ve just spent $1,228 before you’ve warmed a single cold toe. Meanwhile, that ordinary stack of split hardwood behind the shed deserves another look. At those oil prices, a full cord of good, dry wood can replace roughly $775 worth of heating oil—provided you’re burning it in a reasonably efficient stove.” – Bill Heid

THE BIG PICTURE

The Most Under-Discussed Political Reality Of Our Time – “There are a whole lot more of us than there are of them, and we can force revolutionary change whenever we want. It’s self-evident, and so simple that you can sum it up in a single sentence. But because our society is so deeply indoctrinated and mind-controlled, it simply doesn’t show up in the normal every day conversations people have about politics and the problems we face as a society today.” – Caitlin Johnstone

Cannibalism and Murder: Do we Become Savages? – “How do we behave when food, water, and resources disappear” – Sarah Connor

The Covid Vaccine-Injured Finally Get Their Day in Court – “The stakes are enormous. The media’s interest? Not so much. The civil suit specifically names 17 defendants, but the ones you probably care most about are Bill “Depopulate the Planet” Gates and Albert “Laughing all the Way to the Bank” Bourla. The rest are a who’s who of Dutch government officials, public-health authorities, medical advisers, and media executives—plus the Dutch state itself. Apparently, culling the global herd takes a village. As much as we’d all like nothing more than to see Manboobs in particular being perp-walked through town in a too-small, flea-infested orange jumpsuit, this is a civil lawsuit, not a criminal prosecution. Nobody’s facing hard time (yet),” -Jenna McCarthy

OfCom Says “Facial Scans Not Accurate Enough” – Digital ID, here we come! – “The UK’s much-anticipated “social media ban” isn’t even actually law yet, and it’s already proving itself an obvious front for pushing digital ID on the whole country.” – Kit Knightly

Controlling the Narrative Is Not the Same As Controlling the World – “Centralized powers discovered the potential for narrative control to control the world in the 20th century, as mass communications enabled centralized control of what is presented as true and important. Propaganda has an ugly tone, so now we say narrative control, which is of course a comically obvious propaganda technique.” – Charles Hugh Smith

Insiders Warn Canada’s ‘Assisted Suicide’ Is ‘No Longer Optional’ – “Insiders of the Canadian government’s euthanasia regime are warning that the so-called “assisted suicide” program is “no longer optional” as vulnerable citizens increasingly become targets. Two psychiatrists who helped implement Canada’s euthanasia program are warning that the system is no longer treating assisted dying as a last resort. The insiders revealed that patients are being approved for death who should not qualify.” – Frank Bergman

Senator Chris Murphy Joins US Senate Premature Stroke Club after COVID-19 Vaccination – “Neurologic damage documented in four vaccinated senators and not one has made the connection and neither has the press” – Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH

NIAID/NIH Claims to Engineer Chimeric Bird Flu That Replicates at 104°F Despite Trump’s Gain-of-Function Crackdown: ‘Journal of Virology’ – “Federal scientists claim to overcome a fever-related defense, exempt their own experiments from dangerous gain-of-function restrictions, and use the findings to justify more pandemic surveillance.” – Jon Fleetwood

You’ll Have Anything You Can Think Of! – “Trillionaire grifter Elon Musk – the man behind the DOGE show that did nothing to put money back in Americans’ pockets (more precisely, he/DOGE did nothing to reduce the pilferage of Americans by the government and the corporate lampreys that ride it) – said the other day not to worry about your financial condition because “an age of amazing abundance” is just around the corner, courtesy of the Tech Bros, AI and data centers. “The most likely outcome,” he assures us, is that soon “anyone can have anything they can think of.” This would of course render Elon and the Tech Bros – Larry Altman, Sam Ellison, et al – just like the rest of us. Why, we’ll all be able to have mega-yachts and 20,000 square foot homes and private jets, too! If you believe this, you may believe that you’re also about to get a $5k check from Elon’s buddy in return for Voting Harder on Tuesday,” – Eric Peters

It’s All the Same War – “Not only is the war in Ukraine, the same war as the war in Iran, but also the wars in Lebanon, Yemen, Gaza and the West Bank, along with past wars in Syria and Libya. And being part of the same war applies to projected, planned-for wars pitting the EU against Russia and the US against China. Each of these wars has a mission to sustain US/Israeli hegemony, and are either linked to Trump’s mafioso tactics, Bibi’s inhumanity, or a leftist blueprint to degrade/sell-out the US to globalists, using trans politics, unbounded illegal immigration, mRNA, and Diversity/EQUITY/Inclusion—DEI being a plot to emasculate Americans using divide/conquer” – Erik@neverhadaboss.com

Forcing Function – “It was supposed to be an election, but the event we’re in is actually an attempt to overthrow the government. The coup is underway. It’s a turnstile into the next phase of this Fourth Turning. Their plan is to cheat like hell in the election tomorrow, rendering the outcome inconclusive and contestable in order to foment enough civil unrest to force the president to declare an emergency — triggering a sequence of actions to, in turn, declare the president and his administration illegitimate and pass off authority to a select handful of state governors such as Newsom (CA), Pritzker (IL), Spanberger (VA), Whitmer (MI), Polis (CO), and Hochul (NY), and then hold a new constitutional convention to radically change the structure of the government to establish permanent one-party rule” – James Howard Kunstler – JAMES MIGHT BE CLOSER TO THE TRUTH THAN MOST!!!!

The Great Political Train Wreck: Will a Blue Tsunami Sweep the Republican Trump Train Right off its Rails? – “Most Republicans seem to fear that it will.” – David Haggith

Oilpocalypse: The Twilight Of Europe? – “What Prices Tell Us About Power. For most of the year, the primary driver of oil and energy prices has been the United States’ war with Iran and the consequent disruptions of oil flows from the Persian Gulf. More recently, Ukraine’s success with targeting Russian oil refineries has emerged as a significant additional factor magnifying the “oilpocalypse”. With Europe as a whole lagging in natural gas storage against winter demand, natural gas prices are likely to put many countries in a very uncomfortable (and cold) position over the next few months. What can Europe do about the energy situation? Nothing. Europe does not have either the oil production or diesel refining capacity of the United States, and that shows in just how much higher diesel is in Europe compared to the US.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Germany’s Attempted Takeover Of Poland By Proxy Is To Prepare Europe For War With Russia – “Just like Nazi Germany seized Czechoslovakia’s gold and its robust military-industrial complex in the run-up to World War II, so too is today’s Germany plotting to seize Poland’s gold and subordinate European NATO’s largest army to Berlin ahead of a possibly upcoming war with Russia by 2030.” – Andrew Korybko

The Greater Israel Project Is Actually Destroying Israel (VIDEO) – “Robert Inlakesh looks at how Tel Aviv’s pursuit of a “Greater Israel” is leading to the inevitable collapse of the state altogether. Waging never-ending wars on all fronts, it may appear from afar as if the Israelis are getting precisely what they want. However, when you evaluate the details, another picture entirely becomes clear.” – The Last American Vagabond

Lula’s Win a ‘Good Day for Democracy’? Hardly. – “Attempting to seize the passport of a political opponent who just received 60 million votes and tightening the government’s grip on political speech are hardly signs of a healthy democracy.” – Jon Miltimore

South Africa’s Biggest City Faces Total Infrastructure Collapse – “Johannesburg was once the jewel of the African continent – In less than 30 years it has become a forlorn cesspool… South Africa is like a living laboratory experiment; a real time test case for the inevitable failures of third world and far-left governance. After the end of Apartheid and the takeover of race communists under Nelson Mandela, the 75% black African population took over the bulk of governance.” – Tyler Durden  – THAT TELLS YOU ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW!!!

 

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS 

MASSIVE OIL MARKET MANIPULATION… MAKING MILLIONS IN MINUTES! (VIDEO) – Gregory Mannarino  – SHORT AND TO THE POINT FROM GREG!!!!

Oil Prices No Longer Follow Headlines – “Brent crude remains above $116 despite recovering Gulf oil exports, as escalating tanker attacks, soaring freight costs and insurance premiums sustain a hefty war risk premium. The global oil supply cushion has largely disappeared, with physical market tightness, diesel shortages and prolonged disruptions keeping prices elevated. Fears of renewed U.S.-Iran hostilities after the November 3 midterms threaten further price spikes, with little prospect of oil returning below $100 without a credible peace deal.” – Irina Slav

Watch Who They Hire, Not What They Say – “Over the past four months, the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve have quietly hired three people whose published work points in the same direction. None of the hires made the front page. Together they tell you more about the next five years of American money than anything Warsh or Bessent has said into a microphone.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Crash Mode – “Gold, silver, and miners might have a bit further to fall, but I’m holding onto my portfolio allocation (about 15% now). If silver gets down to the $45 level, I’m a buyer at those levels. $35 and I’m beep-beep-beep backing up the truck. After the smoke clears, and the big print begins, it’ll be off to the races for precious metals once again.” – Adam Sharp

Don’t Be Achilles – “Gold just had its worst October since 2008. The last time it fell like this, the people who sold watched it triple. In short, patience is most investors’ Achilles’ heel. Last week put that patience to the test for anyone holding precious metals. In other words, there were plenty of arrows flying. And after three years of being right about precious metals and mining stocks, plenty of investors took one in the heel and sold. Now, should you be tempted to join them this week, I suggest you take a look at this chart first. It compares the start of this bull market in 2022 with where we are today.” – Lau Vegys

Why You Should Pack Your Apples in Sawdust – “This is a problem that’s pretty common on most homesteads in the fall. It goes like this: you pick more apples than you were expecting, then your neighbor brings you some good apples from their harvest, and all of a sudden you’re under a pile of apples and you have no idea what to do with all of them. I swear this happened to me every single year… until I discovered this trick. And I have to tell you that after using this method, I was able to keep apples fresh for months.

THE BIG PICTURE

All Authority Belongs To God – “It has been my experience that few words are as inflammatory and divisive among Christians as the word “authority.” I am convinced there is no more certain way to attract the ire of believers from all denominations than to advance the simple assertion that God has all authority, while men have none.” – Peter Nayland Kust

The Enthusiastic Gullibility of the American Masses: Ignorance on Display – “What is going on today is nearly a universal case of mass avoidance of reality in favor of displaying what I call Empty Mind Syndrome. (EMS) How else could the few actual rulers control hundreds of millions, billions actually, without using brute force as its only weapon?” – Gary D. Barnett

Canada Moves to Expand Euthanasia – “Ethical issues abound for society’s most vulnerable.” – John Klar

Trick or Treat- What are we Prepping For? – “Wouldn’t you like to be a Prepper, too? Halloween used to be a lot more fun. Back in the America 1.0 days of yore. The only thing you had to fear was a razor blade in an apple. But even that was probably an urban legend. In recent years, the trick-or-treating aspect of Halloween has been reigned in. First, by many Christian evangelicals, who think the holiday is “evil.” Satanic. These are the same folks who are responsible for our being involved in the nonsensical war with Iran, in order to further the goals of the Greater Israel Project. I think Zionism is a lot scarier than trick-or-treating. And more evil.  Secretary of War (and that title alone should frighten you) Pete Hegseth recently promoted Operation FORTRESS, which revolves around “preparing.” For mass power outages. Communication breakdowns (wasn’t that a song title by Led Zeppelin?) Cyber attacks. And, of course, the trusted standby of the non-Irish, “terrorism.” Hegseth instructed all U.S. military bases to have at least 90 days of supplies on hand. In case. Just in case. Meanwhile, former FBI official turned neocon talk show host again Dan Bongino, is urging all citizens to have at least 30 days of food, water, medicine, backup generator, etc. In fact, similar directives are going out all over the world, from the UK to Japan.” – Donald Jeffries

The Great Lie Begins At The Beginning: Adam & Eve – ” The portrayal is of a weak Eve who succumbs to the beckoning snake and takes a bite of – knowledge. Meaning knowledge is evil. Or leads to evil. That is the story that we are told to believe without consideration of critical analysis. Because it frames exactly where we are today. The purpose of expunging knowledge is because knowledge eliminates control. Eliminate control and governments are purged. Without government humans don’t just thrive they evolve. But they didn’t just expunge knowledge, they buried it and claimed knowledge led to evil. Burn the books.” – Helena Glass

Resisting Dystopia – “Keep on thinking free. When I was a teenager in the 1970s, three dystopic novels were pretty much required reading: Orwell’s “1984,” Huxley’s “Brave New World,” and Bradbury’s “Fahrenheit 451.” They were all interesting and important books, with Orwell’s being the most important and prescient. Half a century later, dystopic elements of all three increasingly pervade our lives. America used to be a land of dreams, or so we claimed, but it seems nightmares are becoming far too common. Perhaps we’ve allowed those with the most money and power to follow their dreams, which have resulted in increasingly nightmarish scenarios for the rest of us.” – Bill Astore

Faith and Fear in History – “It’s history that concerns me, because history is shining a light on our current predicament. We were a Christian nation then, we put our faith in front of everything. We thanked God for the little we had on those distant shores amid our enemies. We acted with the 23rd Psalm in our hearts: I ask then, why is it that the Lord has abandoned us amidst our enemies? In every way we have reaped what we have sown. I do not fear Islam, I fear the wrath of God. The heresy and promiscuousness of our daily lives cut us off from His mercy and we can’t survive without it.” – T.L. Davis

The War Propaganda Is Even Dumber This Time — And Other Notes – “Under Trump, the war propagandists don’t even need to try anymore. I hear people say things like, “I don’t understand why they’re pushing AI so hard when we can all see it’s making everything worse.” That’s because it’s not being marketed to you; it’s being marketed to governments and plutocrats. They’re the real target audience for these products, not you. You are not receiving the real sales pitch for AI, because the real sales pitch would not appeal to your sensibilities. The real sales pitch for AI isn’t “Hey check out this product, it makes some web searches slightly easier and it can maybe write your emails for you.” The real sales pitch for AI is “This product allows you to surveil the entire population of your country. It can be built into autonomous surveillance drones and killing machines.” – Caitlin Johnstone

The momentum is troubling and concerning.

The Hidden Engine of Booms and Busts – “Imagine walking up to a bank counter, handing over a heavy leather pouch of fine silver coins, and receiving a simple piece of paper in return. That paper isn’t a promise that the bank hopes to honor if nobody panics. It isn’t tied to a liability for a complex loan scheme. It is a 100 percent backed warehouse receipt. If you want your exact silver back tomorrow, or ten years later, it’s waiting for you, in custody, in a vault. That was the everyday reality at the Bank of Hamburg, which was founded in 1619. For over two centuries, this legendary institution operated on a principle so straightforward it sounds almost alien to modern ears: 100 percent reserve banking. To understand why our modern financial world swings wildly between explosive market booms and painful economic busts, you must understand what we lost when we abandoned Hamburg’s honest banking model.

Well, your motor won’t make it and your motor won’t move

I’m riding on a hurricane down to the sea
If you can’t hear the music, turn it up loud
There’s movement in the air and movement in the crowd

Bow-legged woman doing the boogaloo
She got a jive, she got a move
Turn around, do it again
Bow-legged woman, where you been

Fat jack owns a honky-tonk downtown
You can catch a woman if you hang around
You can tear down the door, tear down the wall
Fat jack he don’t care at all

Easy come, easy go

Hey, drummer, drummer, can you give me that beat
Can you give me that beat, got to move my feet
Guitar player been all around the world
But he can’t play a lick for looking at the girls

One two three four five six seven
Well, you’d better change your ways or you won’t get to heaven
Eight nine ten, gonna stop at eleven

Our Governments Have to Stop Hurting Us. They Have to Stop Inflicting Fake Science on Us. They Have to Stop Their Slow Genocide. They Have to Let Us Grow. Now would be a good time.- ” Let’s start with energy. No matter what I write I cannot seem to convince anyone of the fundamental damage that “climate change” has done. Globalization and ‘climate’ stripped us of infrastructure investment, removing tariffs that protected our manufacture and any innovation that might grow out of manufacturing success. Our energy grid runs on a flea market approach, bits and pieces, feeding in wind and solar, limping along. You cannot build anything on such a structure.

US’s Swelling Hormuz Costs Drain Treasury Amid Promises of Renewed War – “As the midterms approach, Trump has been busy insinuating a renewed assault on Iran. Nonsensically, after remarking that Iran “cannot and will not have a nuclear weapon”, he then claims that ability is now “buried under thousands of tons of rock.” The logical question which follows is why, then, the need for further attacks?

Police entered the Constitutional Tribunal’s premises late on Friday as its president, Bogdan Swieczkowski, and his deputy were served with a one-month suspension. Polish President Karol Nawrocki returned to Warsaw after ordering his plane en route to Senegal to be turned back, he said in a post on X social media platform. Nawrocki, who was elected in 2025, is on the side of the conservative-nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party.” – Moon of Alabama

Hand In Hand Toward The Abyss – “Hand in hand, Germany and France are steering toward the abyss — with different domestic political goals, perhaps, but with the same fatal outcome. This is an important lesson for all those who still believe that government debt can solve social problems — or even generate prosperity: State consumption crowds out the private economy. France has made this dish its recurring daily menu.” – Thomas Kolbe

101 Uses for Paracord – “practical ways to repair, organize and improvise with paracord. A broken zipper pull rarely makes anyone’s disaster plan.

200 Skills You Need to Become 100% Independent – “Most homesteading books follow a single path. You get a gardening book, a canning book, a chicken book, or a DIY book.

Your water setup affects your garden. Your storage affects what you decide to grow. A good repair can save you from replacing something that still has years left in it. The Lost Skills of Independence moves through all of that.” – Olivia Brooks  – YOU MIGHT WANT TO CHECK THIS BOOK OUT!!!

THE BINANCE HACK, THE FROZEN BILLIONS, AND THE 36 YEAR OLD DEAL THAT EXPLAINS IT – “In 1990 It Was a Bankruptcy. In 2025 It Was a Pardon. 36 years ago a Rothschild banker decided Donald Trump’s name was worth more than his buildings. Last week the same play ran again but with a pardon instead of a bankruptcy. On Thursday night, somebody took roughly six billion dollars out of the world’s largest crypto exchange. The same play, by some of the same people, with the same logic underneath it. In 1990, Donald Trump was financially finished. The man holding the knife worked for Rothschild Inc.

In addition, the Tartarian symbols on the tablets were similar to identical to the Sumerian King writings and the Minoan tablets. The Tartarian people are believed to have been the giants before the Flood.” – Helena Glass

They Compared the Spice to the Drug. The Spice Won — Again. (Part 2) – “Nature continues to put drugs to shame, yet why has no one heard of this research? Ten more head-to-head clinical trials — pulled from the GreenMedInfo archive — in which ginger, St. John’s wort, garlic, saffron, valerian and a handful of other simple remedies matched or outperformed an antibiotic, Prozac, Aricept, Ritalin, a beta-blocker and a benzodiazepine. Each one links to the full research write-up.” – Sayer Ji

Before you’ve bought a sack of chicken feed or put a gallon of diesel in the tractor, a good chunk of the month’s money has already marched out the door.
