THE BIG PICTURE

Scott Bessent: Stop Complaining About the Billionaire Economy – “Bessent, Trump, millionaires, and billionaires are beneficiaries of a financialized economy. Scott Bessent is sick and tired of hearing about your financial hardship. Since the beginning of his second term, President Trump has argued the US economy is experiencing record prosperity. “When I see polls on the economy, I should have 150% approval, not 100%. This is the golden age of America. “The economy is the greatest economy we’ve ever had by far. The polls are fake,” he added.” -Kut Nimmo  – YEP, EVERYTHING IS FAKE IF IT DISPUTES HIS LIES!!!!!!!!!!!!

What Else Are They Hiding? – “There is really no way to sum up our current moment. In 2019, the economy was doing well and Trump was popular. There were the usual political divisions but no real emergency on the horizon. All at once in the first months of 2020, everything fell apart and a foreign regime was visited upon us, complete with new protocols that required staying home and standing apart from people and covering our faces. We could not go to church, visit the sick, or travel to other countries. A year later came the promised relief that turned out not to hold up but instead caused more suffering. All the while, trust in the system we had never really questioned began to collapse. ” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

When Will The Climate Liars Stop Lying? – “For nearly 40 years, the global warming cabal has spread fear and wasted resources on an emergency that doesn’t exist. While their influence has begun to wane, as their credibility has crashed and their lies have been exposed, the fabrications, exaggerations, and junk science continue. How much longer must we endure their campaign of rancid propaganda?” – I & I Editorial Board

Met Office Heatwave Death Claim Was Fake News – “More than 2,700 excess deaths estimated in England and Wales during May and June heatwaves -Met Office. I have plotted the weekly cumulative death registrations, starting in Week 18, which is the first week in May, and ending in Week 30, which was July 24th this year – this is the latest data available from the ONS. There is no spike in deaths at any stage during 3-month period. Cumulatively there were 136,066 deaths last year and 135,466 this year.” – Paul Homewood

But before we get there to a subject matter that I think is of profound importance which has not been on the top of the fold this week but is bubbling up as it sits in the hopper somewhere in the House of Representatives or the Senate.

We’re talking ninety-four reactors, the largest operating fleet in the world, producing about a fifth of all the electricity in the country” – Lau Vegys

The Private Sector Gains 30,000 jobs, but Local Governments Shed 57,000 Jobs. Supply of Labor Continues to Shrink – Wolf Richter

2026-08-07 09:23 by Karl Denninger in Employment , 40 references The Fantastic Disappearing Yobs…. – “Yes, disappearing, yet the market liked it. Both nonfarm payroll employment (-23,000) and the unemployment rate (4.1 percent) changed little in July, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Employment declined in local government education and retail trade. Employment continued to trend up in health care. How does employment go down yet the unemployment rate also drop (in this case by one tick)? People stopped giving a crap; the “not in labor force” number increased by 80,000.” – Karl Denninger

Household Survey Shows 1.8M Jobs Lost in 2026 so far – “The analysis below covers the Employment picture released on the first Friday of every month.

Why the Housing Affordability Crisis Could Last Another Decade – “The U.S. housing market is currently stuck in a morass of rising mortgage rates, low sales, increasing inventory, and stubbornly elevated prices. If you’re a middle-class earner trying to buy your first home right now, a quick entry into a monthly payment calculator will deliver a heavy dose of disappointment. What’s going on? Shouldn’t house prices be declining in response to rising inventory? Isn’t that how supply and demand are supposed to work?” – MN Gordon

THE BIG PICTURE

Are You Ready for the “Rogue AI” Psy-Op? – “The AIs are breaking free, that’s the story. It started two weeks ago, when OpenAI reported one of their “agents” had escaped its testing area and got loose on the internet to launch an “unprecedented cyber attack”. The breaches signal that AI’s expanding capabilities are already fueling the security threat experts long feared. Everybody got that? It goes on and on. Whatever happens, there will be loud calls to “regulate AI”, but what that might mean in real terms I couldn’t say at this point. To be clear though, if and/or when the official solutions to made-up problem #4987 are finally rolled out, they will have nothing at all do with controlling AI, and everything to do with controlling you.” – Kit Knightly

“Health Inc” – The World’s Largest Conglomerate Scam – ““Health Inc” – is a new term coined for the conglomerate combined health sector which is the aggregated global health economy: public and private hospitals, clinics, pharmaceuticals, They all work hand in hand and in a well-coordinated fashion, so as to create one single sector with an enormous political weight and lobbying power. Health Inc is the largest single sector in advanced economies by GDP share, exceeding manufacturing, finance, and defense combined. This alone gives the sector an enormous power, especially in the United States where Health Inc. controls roughly a fifth of the economy.” – Peter Koenig

The Philosophy of Self-Governance – “In all of nature, man is the only living thing that purposely seeks rule and abandons self-governance. I see this as entirely foreign, and completely unnatural. This desire to be ruled, to be coddled, to be told how to act, regulated, and restricted is unique to the human animal. Why is it that the only entity known that is supposedly intellectually superior and has the ability to reason, surrenders independence in favor of dominance by a master? Why is self-responsibility forsaken for a life bound by slavery? Why do people voluntarily vote to choose their commanding ruler, king, and court?” – Gary D. Barnett

Pillagers Vs Producers: There’s Only Two Ways To Save The Western World – “It’s a scene we have witnessed over and over again in the past several years. The multiculturalists set the wheels in motion for a migrant rush into Europe then pretend to be shocked when it happens. They engineer these events by breaking the cardinal rule of western civilization – Never leave the gates open, because the barbarians will see this as an invitation to pillage. Like hyenas circling a wounded animal, they will be uncontrollably drawn to the smell of an easy meal.” – Brandon Smith

The Dirty Turtle Surfaces . . . – “A statement has just been released to the effect that the Old Dirty Turtle has been discharged and is headed home. We are expected to believe this. What he “said” was actually a press release. In other words, someone else wrote those words. No actual word from the Dirty Old Turtle himself. Note – again – that no one credible heard him say these words. We are told he said them, duly reported by the stenography pool. What’s the game here?” – Eric Peters

We Need To Talk About Tucker (VIDEO) – “Last weekend, seven people ate dinner in Maine and announced a political movement. Marjorie Taylor Greene posted the photograph, Tucker Carlson promoted it, and a few days later Carlson presented a ten-point manifesto for an America that would be fair, sovereign, beautiful, healthy, prosperous, religious, honest and united. This all moved with the brisk efficiency of people who had already selected a font. The group called itself America First for everyone; right, left and center… although its publicly identified principals came almost entirely from the nationalist right, and there is no verified party organization, ballot operation or membership structure behind it yet. For now, what exists is a photograph, a broadcast, a set of adjectives and an audience large enough to make those things feel like an institution. ” – Audrey Henson / The Drey Dossier

Iran Has Trump Right Where it Wants him and Is Turning up the Heat! – “Stocks wilt, oil gets hotter, and the president burns with rage at his chief warlord, then gets laid out flat.” – David Haggith

New York Groceries go Red – “Zohran’s Cheap Eats The announcement came in a press conference earlier this week, where Comrade Mamdani promised 30% discounts for “essential products” at his new city-run grocery stores. The problem, of course, is grocery is a razor-thin industry, sporting profit margins of roughly 2%. And that’s with competent management, which New York City is decidedly not famous for. So even if the socialists somehow manage to run a grocery as efficiently as Aldi or Walmart, the city will be losing an ungodly amount of money — at least 28 cents on the dollar.” – Peter St Onge

Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan have signed a key defense agreement – “The so-called “Mecca Joint Defense Agreement” between the three Sunni Muslim-majority states brings together oil-rich Saudi Arabia and nuclear power Pakistan as well as Turkey, which has NATO’s second-largest army and a rapidly growing defense industry. It would increase cooperation and deterrence at a time of increased regional uncertainty and threats from the war in Iran.” – Suzan Fraser and Munir Ahmed  – LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE IS TIRED OF THE U.S. RUNNING THE SHOW!!!

Russia could attack Nato within weeks, US intelligence warns – “Washington says Putin may attempt to test alliance’s resolve at some point between this autumn and 2029.

Precious Metals Sector Major New Uptrend Alert – “Various factors are converging, which suggest that the Precious Metals sector is about to break out into a major new uptrend, and it looks like we have waited long enough. One factor that has deterred us somewhat has been the lurking threat of a market crash or severe downturn in the market generally, but it looks like they are going to continue to stave this off with massive money creation, with the latest madcap idea being to gift Iran US$300 million for reconstruction if it does what they want it to. Of course it doesn’t have to and won’t, but it gives you an idea of how desperate they are to create money out of thin air.” – Clive Maund

The Blue-Collar Path – “Today’s college graduates are being ejected into the real world and finding a cold, harsh reality. The job market stinks.

The snowball’s rolling down the hill, gathering mass and speed. Blue-collar pay will hold up far better than most “knowledge” jobs over the next few decades.” – Adam Sharp

Just recently, a FOX News anchor slipped up and invited a Florida State Senate candidate on his program to talk about the abuse and exploitation of children as it relates to immigration. (Obviously, as soon as the anchor heard what the candidate had to say, he ended the interview posthaste.) Here is the brief exchange: Anchor Trace Gallagher: What is the number that is fine with you? Is there a benchmark? Is it fine? How many children can be raped and it’s fine if you’re in relation to the immigration community? Oliver Larkin: If we’re going to talk about children being raped, then we need to hold this pedophile president Donald Trump accountable and all those that have been implicated by the Epstein files that the Department of Justice is still not leaking, and they’ve sent AIPAC after Thomas Massie for having the temerity to hold accountable the pedophiles that are in control of our government.

Probably they imagined Go Fund Me’s and humanitarian air drops once the images of their newfound squalor emerged.

Plant an Edible Forest Garden – “I’m convinced that imitating natural systems is fundamental to any successful effort to raise food. The idea behind forest gardening is that natural forests produce an abundance of food. People the world over have harvested food from the forest, reaping where they did not sow. Forest gardeners imitate the forest’s natural structure to take advantage of this abundance, but they increase yields even further through careful planning and management. The result is a productive fusion of garden, orchard and woodland.” -Harvey Ussery

THE BIG PICTURE

The Massacres are Coming – “We are on a dangerous path. Right wing governments scare people into submitting to fascism. Whether it’s immigrants, Antifa, or communism, they create a loosely defined boogeyman lurking around the corner ready to steal your wealth and freedom. Worse, they tell you these people are figuratively and literally raping and pillaging their way across your land. While the world is experiencing a variety of threats, there is no boogeyman. These narratives are created to deflect your attention from the real problems, pitting the masses against each other or against outsiders. History shows us this works well to divert attention away from true socio-economic and resource problems towards scapegoats.” – Sarah Connor

BREAKING: CBS Taped BOMBSHELL 60 Minutes Epstein Story. Then Bari Weiss Fired the Reporter and Buried the Tape To Cover For Trump. – “A billion dollars, three banks, a Senate report nobody in power wants you to read, and a 60 Minutes segment that mysteriously died the moment Bari Weiss got the keys to CBS News. JPMorgan Chase banked Epstein from 1998 to 2013. He and his associates held 134 separate accounts. More than $1 billion moved through them. Epstein wasn’t some client who slipped through the cracks. He was in an elite internal tier JPMorgan literally nicknamed the “Wall of Cash.” Decisions about keeping him were made by executives reporting directly to Jamie Dimon. The bank designated him high-risk in 2008 — the year he was convicted — and kept him for five more years anyway. When JPMorgan finally cut him loose in 2013, did it tell the Treasury Department what it had seen, like federal law requires? No. It waited until 2019” – Dean Blundell

America Reaps What Trump Sows: The Price of Policing the Globe – “What goes around comes around. That is the terrible law of blowback. When the United States bombs another country, threatens its government, kills its people, occupies its territory or attempts to dictate its future, the consequences do not remain safely contained thousands of miles away. They come home. They come home in flag-draped coffins and shattered military families. They come home in retaliatory attacks on American bases and embassies. They come home through terrorist plots, cyber sabotage, disrupted shipping lanes, higher energy prices, depleted weapons stockpiles, and trillions of dollars in debt.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

Reflections From the Heart of the Empire: The Old Wisdoms Look Better and Better – “And, in a truly astonishing coincidence, US officials said progress was being made in talks to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Iran, of course, continues to maintain that they are not negotiating with the Trump Administration because they are all proven liars. Diesel fuel prices are at least $5/gallon throughout the US and over $6 on the West Coast. Things would be much, much worse if China had not reduced its oil imports by half. Because they could, somehow, and because the Chinese don’t want to wreck the global economy, and because China is China. There’s a good English term for that, one that I don’t often associate with governments anymore…let’s see, oh yes…responsible governance, that’s it. But only part of it. The Chinese have been preparing for the probability of all Middle East oil being shut off since at least 9/11/2001,” – Ohio Barbarian  – THE BARBARIAN’S WEEKLY RECAP!!!

Is ‘Communist’ No Longer a Slur? – “The farther today’s Democratic Socialists advance, the less they resemble reformers—and the more they embrace policies long associated with communism. It is not difficult, these days, to see the neo-communist flipside of “Democratic Socialists”—once they find power. Indeed, the more the ossified Democratic Party claims that its growing cadre of socialist renegades are not really socialists, the more they act like—and even appear comfortable being called—communists.” – Victor Davis Hanson

Iran Set To Emerge With More Hormuz Leverage Than Before The War Under Draft US-Oman Deal – “President Trump said late Tuesday that talks with Iran are “moving along very nicely” – in a highly fluid and ambiguous situation where it appears the two sides are only interacting indirectly at best. But the Iranian side has continued to insist that there are currently no peace or ceasefire talks happening, but only the Iran-Oman negotiations which focus on reopening the Strait of Hormuz and setting terms of how it will be managed.” – Tyler Durden

Trump Sets Tariffs On 60 Countries To Blackmail China For Rare Earths – “THE Tariff Game: Most recently, Trump rebated a number of companies Billions of dollars in Tariff Rebates. The total amount so far is $81 Billion in rebates to such affected companies as Ford, Walmart, Amazon, UPS, Fedex, Costco, etc… The People who actually absorbed the tariffs via higher prices? Rebate = ZERO. The amount of rebates remaining unpaid by Trump? $85 Billion. Now Trump wants to impose more illegal tariffs despite the Supreme Court ruling:” – Helena Glass

A rifle marked .223 Remington should use .223 ammunition unless its manufacturer states otherwise. Do not assume 5.56 NATO rounds are safe because they fit inside the magazine. An AR-15 marked 5.56 NATO can generally fire both cartridge types. Still, you should confirm this information inside the owner’s manual.” – Bob Rodgers

They Really Don’t Care – “This might not apply to all sheep-types, but many of the ones I have encountered simply do not care. This could be the reason we can’t seem to get through to them with the facts we are constantly shoving down their throats. Of course, the ones I’ve talked to may just be saying they don’t care to shut me up, but I really don’t think so. They seem pretty sincere. How could they not care? Now, that is the $64,000 question. People, in general, do not care about things they do not see directly affecting them. They should, but they don’t. People these days, at least, don’t seem very skilled at discerning things that will—if not cared about—eventually bite them in the ass. I think people used to be better at determining such things.” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP

It will literally be the end of our country as we know it. This new EA would end direct Congressional oversight with supervision by the Secretary of Defense. There would be no Congressional confirmation or ability for removal of an executive agent by Congress.

President Elizondo Comacho – “The Fuhrer – whoops, president – also says (once again) that the “deal” must encompass the “Total OPENING OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT, and an end to Iran’s nuclear threat.” How many times has he said the same thing already? How many times have the Iranians said that they do not agree? Why does the Fuhrer – er, the president – continue to say the same thing over and over and over? In between pauses and resumptions and threats of resumptions? Because it keeps everyone on edge – and distracted. That is the true purpose of this stupid, evil war – which is more evil than stupid. Ordinary people have their heads on a swivel. They get up in the morning and wonder what insanity has propagated while they slept. Note that the Epstein Stuff has all-but-gone away. A treasonous honeypot operation involving the intelligence apparatus of a foreign entity is alarming but $4.10 per gallon is distracting. Also the worry that it could get much worse – any day now.

Call Off the Iran War. Just Walk Away! – “After several days of increasing threats against Iran, including social media posts like “FINISH THE JOB!” and “Take the oil. No mercy!,” President Trump has over the weekend called off a planned major escalation in the Middle East. For now. “The U.S.A. is locked and loaded and ready to go against the Islamic Republic of Iran, at levels of Military Terror, Strength, and Power not seen since World War II,” he wrote on his social media account. According to various media articles, the US is running dangerously low on missiles, especially interceptor missiles such as the Patriot system. Our ability to protect our military bases in the Middle East appears to be gone. Reportedly, President Trump was warned by his top military advisors that a ground operation against Iran would result in a high level of US casualties and would have no guarantee of success.” – Ron Paul

Some of the more than 220 people murdered by our government at sea were likely not involved in drug trafficking at all: I would emphasize that the government has no right to take anyone’s life because of alleged ties to drug trafficking. It bears repeating that everyone killed in these boat strikes is a murder victim. Some of them have been fishermen, and some may have been victims of human trafficking, but they are all victims of a mindless campaign of summary executions carried out on the president’s illegal orders. The boat strikes haven’t made a dent in the flow of drugs into this country, nor was there ever any reason to believe that they would.” – Daniel Larison

That picture falls apart quickly once you understand how modern land information actually works. Every acre in the country sits inside a recorded chain of title.

Let Them Drive Kias . . . – “You may have heard Trump’s braggadocious announcement the other day about the White House’s new fleet of 250 Cadillac Escalades for the the presidential motorcade. “Our guys are very spoiled. They like the Escalade. So do I,” said Trump. What’s most interesting about this is the imperial garishness of it. More finely, as the American empire disintegrates, its garishness waxes. America’s Don – who is a billionaire – isn’t paying for any of it. How much is it? Estimates range from $22.5 million to about $75 million, depending on the extent of the modifications to each of the 250 Escalades. Probably these will be considerable since an as-it-comes Escalade is much too common for our pompadoured Don. It’s a really bad look, but the Don not only doesn’t care – he flaunts it, like John Gotti used to – and he does it at the same moment in time when ordinary Americans are struggling to put regular in the Kias they paid for with their own money, with whatever was left of it after they got tax-fleeced to pay for all the nice things the Don thinks are befitting the magnificence and generosity (to its clients) of the regime. “We look sharp in those Escalades.

Trump’s West Asia Off-Ramp – “Trump’s war against Iran, started for Israel and funded by the American people without the slightest bit of Congressional debate or constitutional adherence, has been lost. Initiating this war, designed by neoconservatives and Israeli talking heads, conducted by a group of real estate bros and a former FOXNews commentator, and executed by not-the-good-looking-actor Bradley Cooper was Trump’s peculiar genius, his 5D chess. He knows exactly who to blame, fire, and throw under the bus. Maybe that’s how he “planned” it (wink, wink). Allow me to speak directly.

I call it the “Top Gun Maverick Military Model.” The TGM3 works great in C.G. Hollywood movies, it worked great in the 20th Century against countries like Serbia and Libya, and most importantly of all, it’s fantastic for shoveling endless billions of dollars to our corpulent MIC “defense” industries. And for decades, it kept the rest of the world in line, afraid to test America’s evidently overwhelming destructive military power.

In his trademark bloviating style, President Trump posted to Truth Social that the USA was “locked and loaded” to unleash “levels of Military Terror, Strength, and Power not seen since World War II”, but that “for the future benefit of the WORLD” he had responded to a request from Iran and other Middle Eastern countries to hold off as the outline of a deal had been agreed.

WHAT’S WRONG WITH THE PRICE OF GOLD? – “War in the Middle East. Oil ripping higher. Inflation expectations climbing.

Greenhouse Checklist: Before You Build (VIDEO) – “Don’t waste your money; figure out your needs before you buy your greenhouse kit or supplies. Answer this quick questionnaire to pin down your goals, abilities, and budget, so that you can achieve greenhouse gardening success.” – Leah Webb

Hurdling: A Food Storage Technique That Extends Shelf Life By Years – “Hurdling is defined as a combination of more than one food preservation technique. The idea is to create a series of barriers for microorganisms like bacteria and fungus. These barriers act as hurdles for the microorganisms so it’s harder for them to make it into the food we eat. If the proper amount of hurdles are used, any microorganisms are overwhelmed and ultimately die so the food lasts longer.” – Steve Nubie

The Post-Collapse Woodstove – “When conventional heating disappears, an old woodstove can look like salvation. One may be sitting in an abandoned workshop. Another might be pulled from a damaged hunting camp. A neighbour may have an unused stove in a barn, while sections of chimney pipe can be found scattered among several properties. The temptation is obvious: gather the parts, cut a hole and make heat. That is also how a cold-weather emergency becomes a structure fire or carbon-monoxide incident.” – denob

9 Ways You Can Repurpose Expired Food Cans – “I was at Walmart a few months back, restocking my pantry, when I noticed something. Half the cans on my own shelves at home had been sitting there expired for years. Nothing looked wrong with them, but the dates were long gone, and I stood there doing the math on how much money that actually was. That got me thinking. Could I feed them to my dogs? Would they work for the chickens? Could old canned food turn into fuel, or fertilizer for the garden? Or was I just supposed to toss the whole stack and eat the loss?” – Jack

Losing The Harvest: Native, Pioneer, And Amish Responses To Crop Failure In The First 72 Hours – “A failed harvest changes more than the pantry. It changes the mood of a household. It changes plans for winter. It changes how people look at every remaining jar, sack, root cellar shelf, and animal in the barn. A season of work can disappear through drought, flood, hail, insects, fire, disease, or an early freeze.” – Alec Deacon

God Is Trustworthy. Men Are Not. – “The priests of the Temple wanted the people of Israel to follow them—to follow men.

Extractive Capitalism – “Gusher Up, Trickle Down, Leads Me to a Sinking Feeling. We’ve been living through a brutal experiment of how much work and wealth can be extracted from the working- and middle classes and funneled upward before the former are exhausted. It’s truly amazing how much wealth is being extracted from workers. The tax code targets wages more than capital gains. Inflation (gas, groceries, and other essentials) cuts into largely fixed incomes. Health care costs continue to rise and are the leading cause of personal bankruptcies. Higher education often leads to onerous student debt that cannot be discharged through personal bankruptcy. Workers are bombarded with ads to bet money on sports using apps on their phones. Lottery tickets are everywhere, selling the dream of a financial windfall at very long odds. Expensive prescription drugs are sold as a solution to excessive weight and even to addiction to other drugs such as opioids. The term “debt slavery” describes the status of many Americans;” -Bill Astore

“Resembles a Turtle” – “Some brilliant person put up a bunch of Missing Person flyers around downtown DC. The flyers describe 84-year-old Senator Mitch McConnell – last seen actually alive, for sure – back in June – as “turtle like” – along with a picture that makes the point. Well, an AIgenerated image (probably) of the Dirty Old Turtle, as he is unaffectionately known. The whole thing reached a level of absurdity – and criminality – weeks ago. It is coming up on two months since the Dirty Old Turtle disappeared from public view and going on two weeks now since the AI generated image of him sitting up in bed, looking like a healthy Dirty Old Turtle with his cheerful looking wife by his side was issued as proof of life. If that image weren’t AI-generated, the Dirty Old Turtle ought to have been out of bed by now – or at least in front of a camera. We’re told – and they actually think we’ll believe it – that the Dirty Old Turtle is just recovering from a mild fall and a bout of not-so-serious pneumonia.” -Eric Peters

Get ready to flee, Americans in ten countries warned as US embassies issue stark alert over spiraling Iran war – “The US Embassy has urgently advised US citizens across the Middle East to ‘consider departing or be ready to depart if there is an escalation,’ just hours after Trump signaled fresh strikes on Iran could come as soon as this weekend. The warning now covers 10 countries: the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Qatar, Oman, Iraq, Jordan, Israel, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and, most recently, Egypt. ” – Kelly Garino

THE BIG PICTURE

Ceuta as the bridge too far and the fulcrum of change – “One thing is certain: everywhere clan Soros crops up, this disease spreads. They are the plague rats of institutional and incentive capture and like them or hate them, they are incredibly effective. Spain looks to be in real danger of falling as a nation. They created a mass amnesty for illegal immigrants from places that do not believe in spain but only in tribe and who do not believe in rights but only in who may dominate whom. if one seeks to be a wrecker, it’s a brilliant incentive. pardon a million and give them access to your social safety networks and welfare payments which fund a lifestyle far in excess of where they came from. The media is, predictably, either ignoring this or pretending it’s a humanitarian crisis of families and babies. it’s not. this is damn near all men. and they are not behaving well.” – El Gato Malo

BlackRock’s Larry Fink Says AI Data Centers Are Going To Be The Next Revolution In Finance,’ As Trump Says ‘You Can’t Fight Against’ Data Centers – “”It’s very important because you have to convince your community how great these things [are] — you can’t fight it, you have to go with it,” Trump said.” – The WinePress

The Plot to Poison Farmland with Sewage Sludge… and Then Take It Out of Production – “Companies like DuPont and 3M are knowingly poisoning our water and farmland with PFAS “forever chemicals.” They’re not doing it just for profit, or population control, or to make us sick and tired so we can’t resist their rule. Those are side benefits. They’re waiting for the day when they can say that real food is too toxic, even (especially?) the organic farms need to be shut down, and we have no choice but to eat synthetic food made from genetically modified microorganisms raised on waste. That time is drawing near, so we’re hearing a lot about the problem of PFAS, the government is starting to use it as an excuse to condemn farmland, and the corporate overlords are starting to roll out their Frankenfood solution.” – Alexis Baden-Mayer

Ancient Structures From Canada No One Can Explain! (VIDEO) – “From a prehistoric medicine wheel older than the pyramids and eerie Arctic stone faces to forgotten Indigenous earthworks, mysterious runic carvings hidden deep in the forest, and the terrifying Valley of Headless Men, these incredible places continue to leave archaeologists searching for answers.

Because nothing says summer 2026 like the possibility that Cold War bureaucrats cooked up a genetically enhanced killing machine in the Atlantic.” – Steve Watson

The First Waves of the Paradigm Shift Have Arrived – “The tsunami hasn’t. Yet. But it’s building. The first warning waves are already eroding the vacationland shore of establishment politics, both in the United States and Europe. I know the US better, so will focus on it. In Maine, an anti-Zionist veteran seemingly came out of nowhere to clinch the Democratic nomination for US Senate, but our kleptocracy and Israel’s minions managed to put the kabosh on him. In Kentucky, the same people were able to scare enough older Boomers and Silents to the polls to defeat libertarian and anti-imperialist Tom Massie in one congressional district. The problem for them is that the paradigm shift away from Empire and towards utter revulsion and contempt for the genocidal apartheid state of Israel is too large, too deep, and too connected to the dialectical materialist contradictions of the US Empire to be contained. Opposition to AI data centers is now the most anti-establishment position a politician can take to guarantee a lot of instant votes for him or her, and socialists are leading the charge.” – Ohio Barbarian

Corrupt and Despotic Ukraine Is Not Worth Fighting WWIII – “This war is about money, not saving ‘democracy.’ Seeing Ukrainian dictator Volodymyr Zelenskyy at Senator Lindsey Graham’s funeral seemed fitting: Z-Man’s money-laundering operation in Kyiv was the proximate cause of Graham’s death. Had the senator not been working so hard to add to the butcher’s bill in Europe, he would still be alive today. Surely there is a lesson here for some people to see.” – J.B. Shurk

Cuba Crisis: Assessing the Claims Against Havana – “When President Donald Trump declared Cuba an “unusual and extraordinary threat” to U.S. national security in a January 2026 Executive Order, the designation was accompanied by a series of sweeping claims. Among them were accusations that Cuba “provides support” to Russia, China, Iran, Hamas, and Hezbollah, that it “supports terrorism,” and that the Cuban government supports actors who “seek to destroy the United States.” Claims this broad require clear evidence. The history of disputed intelligence assessments including Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, “yellowcake” uranium, and mobile biological weapons programs, are just a few examples where assertions were made while evidence remained lacking or fabricated.” – Patrick Pillow

One Month of Falling Prices Won’t Restore Price Stability – “June’s PCE report showed prices falling as energy prices retreated, but underlying inflation and nominal spending remain too strong.” – Bryan Cutsinger

The “Paycheck to Paycheck” Problem – “Even before this energy price spike, affordability was a big problem. A structural, long-term trend. Hospital services are up nearly 300% in 26 years. Tuition more than 165%. Daycare costs up 150%. And these are based on government statistics, which always undercount true inflation. There are fluctuations, but the pattern is clear. Steadily higher. As a percentage of income, these items are eating up a bigger piece of the pie.” – Adam Sharp

Government Takes a Stake in 6 More Companies, New Total Is 30 Companies – “The federal government is now acting as regulator, customer, financier, and shareholder. Decisions involving contracts, trade restrictions, permits, and additional subsidies can affect the value of its holdings. Competitors have reason to question whether the playing field is level.This is state capitalism / corporatist industrial policy. Calling it communism overstates the case. However, and unfortunately, it’s more government economic intervention into the markets.” – Mish  – ALSO WHO IS TAKING POSITIONS IN THESE COMPANIES AS WELL, TRUMP, CONGRESS CRITTERS, CORPORATE INSIDERS?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Steve Forbes Issues New Dollar Warning – “A strong dollar sounds like good news. It sounds solid. Responsible. Adult, even. It sounds like the sort of thing a country should want to have, and feel proud of. But unbacked currencies are tricky things. See, currency “strength” is almost always measured in comparison with other currencies – not in comparison with groceries, medical bills, electricity prices or the cost per gallon of gasoline. That means the dollar can look strong against the yen, the yuan or the euro while still losing purchasing power here at home.” – Peter Reagan

Cashmere Goats – A Homesteader’s Complete Guide – “The first time I ran a metal comb through a goat’s winter coat and pulled out a handful of fiber softer than anything I owned in my closet, I understood exactly why cashmere carries the price tag it does. Cashmere is not a breed name, it is a fiber classification. Per Werner Creek Farm’s account of raising them, goats naturally grow two types of hair: coarse outer guard hairs and a soft, downy undercoat, and any goat producing a fine enough undercoat can be marketed as a cashmere producer regardless of its formal breed. That is why you will see cashmere coming off Spanish goats, ferals, and various meat-breed crosses, not just goats labeled specifically as Cashmere. Purpose-bred cashmere lines do exist, developed specifically for consistent, high-quality down.” – Self-Sufficient Projects Staff

But omnipresent cameras are just the eyes of the beast. The real problem is the creature’s brain, AI.” – Doug Casey

Chaos Agent: Anthony Fauci Represents A System That Needs To Be Cleansed – “I think nothing enrages Americans more than a lack of accountability from government officials. Yes, it happens often, and the public hasn’t taken up torches and pitchforks (yet), but I would point out that these incidents are cumulative and they light a growing fire within the collective memory. Eventually, people are going to snap if they don’t see action taken to rectify past wrongs.” – Brandon Smith

The Curse It is Cast – “Who in this land was not mortally depressed watching Rand Paul’s Senate hearing Wednesday starring Dr. Fauci? (One last time, the center of attention!) We have become a procedural republic, slipping into an impotence of legalistic self-fuckery the way old folks slip into dementia, one lost memory at a time. There sits the murderer of millions cloaked in the banality of his evil — as it was at Nuremburg eighty years ago — and this time, you just have to lump it, America. The law can’t touch him at all. Dr. Fauci ran his own titanically corrupt fiefdom out of the nation’s public health complex. Half-a-million a year wasn’t enough for — let’s call him what he was — an executive bureaucrat.” – James Howard Kunstler

Burying Lindsey Graham Won’t Be Easy – “Long ago, great Senators existed. Resolute and accountable, they represented their governors and state legislatures and asserted those interests in Washington. No longer. A regal Senate with a bold populist House of Representatives do not exist. What we call Senate and House do not make federal law, nor do they perform the small number of defined duties described in Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution. The making of law has become the work of lobbyists and the regulatory bureaucracy, while other Constitutional duties have become entirely too frightening to even consider, much less perform. The hydra-headed executive branch has become the permanent ruler, the center of state power, poisonous and deadly. The hydra was captured in video at Graham’s funeral, as Netanyahu forcefully issued his latest orders to Rubio and Hegseth.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

Saudi Arabia’s Choice To Join Trump in Bombing Iraq A Monumental Mistake! – “Desperate for money, Ukraine is taking military drones and advanced weapons out of commission and is selling them on the black market to whomever has the cash. While continuing to demand the EU and US supply – more weapons. Iran continues to ‘retaliate’ for every US hit with latest being Jordan and Kuwait. At what point does the Middle East understand the US and Israel are NOT their friends?” – Helena Glass

The Gibraltar calculus: Is Spain’s Ceuta included in Abraham Accords? – “The obvious question, the one every wire service asked, was what triggered the surge. The more interesting question is who benefits, and why the answer keeps circling back to Washington and the alignment it built. What on the surface looks like a sudden migration crisis bears all the hallmarks of a coordinated strategic push. A manageable border breach, instantly weaponized by American MAGA influencers and Israeli figures, recalls Rabat’s original bargain: entry into the Abraham Accords in exchange for U.S. recognition of Western Sahara.” -Yakup Kenan

Entire Russian City Enveloped In Smoke & Darkness After Major Refinery Attacked – “The major Russian industrial city of Volgograd, in the country’s southwest, is being engulfed in smoke and darkness on Friday after a wave of Ukrainian drone attacks scored several hits on key sites.

What is astonishing is the speed of the deterioration. There were approximately 6 million borrowers in default last August. That figure jumped to 7.7 million by December. By April it had reached 9.2 million. Another 3 million borrowers are reportedly at least 90 days delinquent and appear headed in the same direction.” – Martin Armstrong

PM sentiment low as it gets – “Few investors are interested in major upheavals facing global finances. Disinterest in summer is normal, but this is a time of maximum danger to personal wealth. It is a fact that after 55 years of this fiat currency regime, the top 500 investment managers with an estimated $140—$150 trillion under management are clueless about money and credit. For them, gold and its PM cousin silver is losing them “money”. This is why sentiment is gloomy. But if they account in gold, they still have their gold and no credit risk. This is important, since without doubt credit risk is escalating. No chart tells you this, so technical analysis as commonly practiced is no guide, because all charts share the basic assumption of the clueless millions. All commodities, stocks, and bonds are always priced in national currencies, which are credit issued by government agents with their counterparty and hidden debauchment risk.” – Alasdair Macleod

The Latrine Is Too Close – “A post-collapse latrine can look perfectly functional while quietly threatening everything around it. It may have privacy, a sturdy seat and enough capacity for the group. It may control odour reasonably well and be located close enough to reach at night. None of that matters if contaminated runoff is moving toward the well, waste is leaching through porous soil, or spring flooding is carrying it into the garden and surface water.” – denob

THE BIG PICTURE

A Head for an Eye: The Government’s War on the American People – “We have been ambushed. We should be talking about the dangerous, destabilizing things being done to this country. We should be talking about the data centers spreading across the landscape, We should be talking about the government’s growing network of detention centers and its family-separation policies, We should be talking about license-plate readers, facial recognition, government databases and artificial intelligence capable of turning our movements and associations into a digital dossier on every person in America. We should be talking about masked government agents, endless war, disappearing constitutional safeguards and an imperial presidency accountable to no one. Instead, we are trapped in a vicious loop of nonsense, mania, political demagoguery and manufactured spectacle while the country goes to hell in a handbasket.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

Corporatized, Privately Controlled, Uniparty Political System: America Is not a ‘Nation,’ It Is a Private Monopoly Cabal – “It is time to put to bed any idea whatsoever that what is called ‘America’ is some sort of free and democratic country. It is not any such thing, and is completely run and controlled by the ‘private’ Federal Reserve Bank, domestic and global international banking and finance organizations, and ruling oligarchs who entirely control all politicians who can only act as pawns of the real power that wields absolute dominance over this failing empire. ” – Gary D. Barnett

This looks fake ( 35 sec, VIDEO) – Sage Hana  – MOST DEFINITELY DOES!!!!!!!!!!

Fauci Rats on Himself – “I have not written about the Fauci Diaries. Really no need to as so many have: From the Fauci Diaries emerges a person so egotistical that he leaves a self-written trail of his own criminality. How this man can escape indictment and imprisonment or execution is beyond belief. It is not just Fauci. It is the pharmaceutical industry, the medical profession and Big Pharma bought-and-paid-for medical boards. It is the whore media. It is the dumbshit American masses who lack the intelligence and knowledge to wonder if they are being driven by fear to an unknown destination.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Dog-and-Pony Shows Will Not Satiate Our COVID Bloodlust – “Unindicted COVID warlord Anthony Fauci’s Senate hearing yesterday, as anticipated, delivered neither answers nor justice for his crimes. America’s Mengele sauntered in — not, as he ought to have been, wearing an orange jumpsuit and shuffling awkwardly on account of the iron shackles affixed to his ankles — flanked by a half-dozen of the best lawyers money can buy, who had trained him to repeatedly plead the Fifth to every question from Republican Senators (the Democrats, of course, asked him nothing… Lack of testimony notwithstanding, Fauci knows what he did. We know what he did. He knows we know what he did. We know he knows we know what he did.” – Ben Bartee

Fauci’s Finger is Theirs – “I don’t mean to come off sanctimonious here, but the first time I saw Fauci, I knew he was an officious narcissist. I’d seen his ilk before, in schools, in the military and at universities. What is being exposed is that we don’t have a system that’s capable of producing consequences for the gravest, most widespread, systematically destructive actions of a single man.” – T.L. Davis  – ALL A DISTRACTION. PROBABLY WON’T BE LINKING MUCH MORE ON THIS FARCE!!!!!!!!!!

Trump Calls Operation Warp Speed A ‘Spectacular Success’ And Pretends He Was Against Fauci, Despite Him Giving Fauci A Commendation For His Work, Says He Respects Biden’s Pardon – “Operation Warp Speed” was a SPECTACULAR SUCCESS, in fact, many say, one of the most successful things ever done by an American President.” – The WinePress

Coming soon to a big-box store near you: Digital-programmable pricing along with real-time continuous surveillance – “Government and corporations are working together in public-private partnerships to usher in Chinese-style social credit system. Gasoline prices, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, routinely change, sometimes in a matter of hours given the instability of the oil supply as arbitrarily judged by global futures markets. It’s like every gas station gets a memo at the same time to raise their prices by the same amount. This is digital pricing as it relates to just-in-time inventory schemes. But what if digital pricing is invading all of our retail purchases, starting with the nation’s two largest grocery-store chains – Walmart and Kroger? Get ready, because that’s exactly what is in the works.” – Leo Hohmann

What If a Multivitamin Could Be Grown Instead of Manufactured? – Sayer Ji

A Horrific Genocide of Christians – “Most of the world is raised on the mandatory remembrance of a particular 20th-century genocide. We see it in films, in school curriculum, in state ceremonies; to question a single detail of its official narrative is to risk ruin, censorship, and legal penalty across most of the Western world. But almost no one speaks of the slaughter that preceded it. The one that wrote the very playbook of modern totalitarian murder, and whose architects, tactics, and ideological heirs remain in power today, operating under a new flag, with a new name, and the same unquenchable thirst for domination. The Bolsheviks, many of them Jewish revolutionaries returned from exile in the West; Leon Trotsky (Lev Bronstein), Yakov Sverdlov (Solomon), Grigori Zinoviev (Radomyslsky), Karl Radek (Sobelsohn), Maxim Litvinov (Wallach), Lev Kamenev (Rosenfeld), Moisei Uritsky, seized this ideology and turned it into a machine of slaughter. They did not just disagree with the Russian way of life, they hated it, and they set out to erase it, root and branch.” – Jordan Nutt

US Senate warns Trump against pardoning Epstein-linked sex trafficker – “Lawmakers have unanimously opposed clemency for Ghislaine Maxwell amid continued controversy over her late former partner” -RT

Understanding Michelle Obama’s Gun Hypocrisy – “What you have to understand, though, is that to people like her, it’s not hypocrisy. See, you don’t need a gun because, unlike her, you’re unimportant. You, your family, your community, they simply don’t matter. Michelle Obama, though? She matters. She and her husband still have important things to do, and they need to be kept safe and sound while they pen agreements for Netflix programs about NBA players and stuff. This is the same mentality as the climate crusaders who board private jets to Europe to discuss how you shouldn’t be allowed to continue driving the 2002 Toyota Tundra that was all you could afford because of greenhouse emissions. They have important things to do and can’t be bothered with waiting in line or dealing with TSA, but you can wait for the (electric) bus. Simply put, people like Michelle Obama can afford to outsource their security, which means they’re important enough to warrant it. You and me? Nah. ” – Tom Knighton  – GOOD POINTS FROM TOM!!!

The Mamdani Grocery Grift: The New York Mayor Sells Taxpayers a Bill of Goods on City-Run Stores – “The plan is a multimillion-dollar version of the $5 gold watch grift. The chumps are New York taxpayers who believe that Mamdani can sell them produce at a discount of 30 percent below the market rate and not lose money. Indeed, this could end up the most expensive produce in the Big Apple.” – Jonathan Turley

Guess Who’s Funding Barricades And Porta-Potties At Madison’s Marxist-Antifa Encampment – “You’re not going to believe the answer. And I provide the receipts to prove it. The city of Madison is helping the far left take over several blocks in downtown…and they don’t look like they are leaving anytime soon.” – Tyler Durden

Burnham dances right on cue as warmonger puppet PM – “Britain is being run by a puppet regime whose purpose is to sell war.’ – Finian Cunningham

Zelensky’s Lackluster DC Tour Upstaged by Another Mass Russian Air Attack on Ukraine – “As expected, the establishment has hailed Zelensky’s latest “victorious campaign” against Russian warehouse chain Wildberries as a momentum-shifting PR operation that has reportedly brought him back into good graces with Trump: This is apparently the depraved strategy cooked up by MI6, CIA, and co.: endlessly bomb Russian civilian properties until the people get fed up of the war. How well did that turn out in Iran?” – Simplicius

Silver Is the Real Shortage. Oil Is the Distraction. – “That doesn’t mean oil isn’t important. It powers the global economy and remains one of the world’s most strategic commodities. But there’s a critical difference between a temporary supply disruption and a structural shortage. The two are often confused, and investors pay the price.” – Kerry Lutz

US Savings Rate Tumbles Despite Lowest Jobless Claims Data In 57 Years – “The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits remained near its lowest levels since 1969 last week at just 197k (below the 200k exp)… Continuing jobless claims are also falling back to cyclical lows… Additionally, both income and spending are also trending higher… But overall, the savings rate is tumbling…So, the ‘low hire, no fire’ economy leaves Americans still spending but higher prices are forcing savings to be drawn down to maintain quality of life.” – Tyler Durden

Preserving Meat When the Grid Stays Down – “Safe meat preservation after refrigeration fails. A freezer full of meat looks like food security—until the electricity fails. During a short outage, a closed, well-packed freezer may hold its temperature long enough for power to return. During a prolonged grid failure, however, the freezer becomes a countdown clock.” – denob – HAVE LINKED SIMILAR ARTICLES BEFORE!!!

How to Fake Your Death, Go Invisible and Survive SHTF – “This is not about faking your death, forging documents, or ducking out on debts, court dates, or child support. You already know that’s fraud, and no SHTF scenario makes it legal. This article is about something every serious prepper already values: going gray. That’s the real skill of making yourself hard to track, hard to notice, and hard to target when the systems you’d normally rely on stop working. Going gray doesn’t start the night the grid goes down. It starts months earlier, in how much your street already knows about your business. Someone remembers the generator in your driveway, the garage light on at 2 AM or the questions you asked about their well. You don’t need a bug-out bag if you’ve already spent years being the guy everyone points to first.” – Jim A
