THE BIG PICTURE

Remote Water Shutoffs: How They’ll Kill Victory Gardens )VIDEO) – “Your garden has been deemed “non-essential.” They can automatically shut off your water after just 50 liters (13 gallons) per day … or any arbitrary amount they decide.” – UNSHADOWED (formerly known as Ice Age Farmer).

Faking “Water Bankruptcy” Part 2: Climate Change – “Later this year, the UN will be hosting a major summit on the world’s water supply. The Global Water Conference 2026 is being assembled to tackle what the UN is calling “water bankruptcy”, and pursue Sustainable Development Goal 6 in pursuit of Agenda 2030. The narrative being sold is that the world wide water supply is under threat in some new and critical way, and drastic – potentially global – action is required. Another ‘crisis’ in other words. Another Hegelian Dialectic. And we know what those mean.” – Kit Knightly – PART 1 WAS LINKED ON 07/05/26

Palantir’s Dark Intelligence-Industrial Complex Origins – “It is no wonder then that Peter Thiel named his data analytics spy company Palantir Technologies after the Palantíri, but just like the actual founders of fellow spy corporations Facebook, Google, Amazon, Tesla, et al., these are merely corporate fronts for the Intelligence-Industrial Complex. What began as a DARPA program, designed to erode the very safeguards of our Constitution, didn’t disappear when it left government oversight. Instead, it was quietly spun out, rebranded as a private firm, and continued pursuing the same agenda under corporate cover.” – 2nd Smartest Guy in the World

Bayer Consolidates Glyphosate Business Into New Subsidiary Entity “Ruveon,” Seeks To Strengthen Ties With US Government – “”Ruveon’s launch is a sign of our ongoing commitment to excellence in the glyphosate market,” said an executive.” – The WinePress

The History Heist: How The Truth WAS STOLEN – The Most Shocking Story You’ve Never Heard – “Some of the most important untold history that you will ever read… It’s critical that we don’t just learn what they did, but we learn how they did it. And once you learn how they pulled this off, your mind will be blown…” – Agent131711

62.9% of youth agree: “Humanity is doomed” – “Americans aged 18-25 are anxious, powerless, and afraid. The forests are burning, Europe just experienced another apocalyptic heat wave, and narcissistic egomaniacs drool over lobbing nuclear weapons at Iran. Still, people shock me every day with their decision to bring human life into this hell hole.” – Sarah Connor

World Economic Forum Says There Are ‘Solid, Rational’ Reasons For Children To Be Microchipped In Their Brains – The WinePress

Exclusive: Government Spy Hubs Are Surveilling Anti-Flock Camera Activists – “The Counter Terrorism Apparatus Comes For Anti-Surveillance Activist” – Dan Boguslaw

Critical data. Flock surveillance and the State of Israel. This is not flocking good. – “Apparently FLOCK does have an important connection to a country in the middle east. Better flocking think.” – LawyerLisa -IMAGINE THAT!!!!

NEWS

Where’s Israel? – “It is interesting that the country that goaded the United States – well, goaded Trump – into starting the war is no longer an active participant in the war. Let’s you and him fight, as the saying goes. While Israel watches. Quietly. One hears almost nothing about Israel all of a sudden. “Bibi” isn’t to be seen. Previously, it was hard not to see him. It’s almost as if this war doesn’t involve Israel when, of course, it is all about Israel. There would be no war were it not for Israel. The premise seems to be that had the United States not attacked Iran – had only Israel attacked Iran – somehow that would have resulted in harm to America. Well, that’s exactly what happened. Americans have been killed and something on the order of $100 billion has been lost – so far. Now America has assumed total responsibility for this stupid, evil war that was started by and for Israel. More finely, Americans have been saddled with total responsibility for this stupid, evil war that was started by and for Israel.” – Eric Peters – WELL SAID BY ERIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

U.S. war with Iran just climbed another rung up the escalation ladder – “This was the worst possible news for those trying to scratch out a living in our teetering economy, but it’s great for the oil companies and war profiteers.. According to multiple media outlets, Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis declared today, July 20, an immediate naval blockade on Saudi Arabia. This brings the U.S./Israel-Iran war officially to the southern entrance of the Red Sea, shutting down an export route through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait used by the Saudis to bypass disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. Oil that was being rerouted from the Strait of Hormuz into the Red Sea and up through the Suez Canal in Egypt will now be cut off if Yemen is able to make good on its stated mission. This will wreck the Egyptian economy, possibly drawing that country into the war against Iran.” – Leo Hohmann

Mamdani Claims He Will Arrest Netanyahu – “New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has decided to enter the realm of international diplomacy by threatening to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should he attend the United Nations General Assembly this September. Speaking to the New York Times, Mamdani called Netanyahu “a war criminal” and declared, “Netanyahu belongs in The Hague.” ” – Martin Armstrong

Islam and America Are Incompatible – “Here is a declaration of Islamic supremacy Americans can no longer ignore.” – J.B. Shurk

They Are Coming to Take Us Away – “The White House discovers more “commies” and terrorists. In Donald Trump’s America it is always possible to wake up in the morning and peruse online the overnight headlines to discover something new and exciting. Over the past week it has been a medley of going to war (again) with Iran coupled with a complicated performance on other issues as President Trump apparently takes aim at his enemies in the US and elsewhere. America’s Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is fully on board with a surge in worldwide mayhem. He is looking forward to an increase in US initiated violence, ordering that male soldiers, airmen, sailors and marines be tested for their testosterone levels. ” – Philip Giraldi

Invasion of the Cuban Commies – “Marco says radical Democrats are out to destroy Western Civilization. – Kurt Nimmo

After “Political Terrorism” Summit, U.S. Names 43 Americans + Groups – “Rubio report on Cuban subversion names Zohran Mamdani, Amy Goodman, Hasan Piker + orgs like DSA and Amazon Labor Union . But what exactly are they guilty of? What the report shows isn’t that any of these people are knowingly taking directions from a foreign power — only that they disagree with the U.S. government on Cuba policy (or at most, agree with Cuba). Their views can be wrong — aggressively, offensively wrong even — but it’s their goddamn right as Americans to hold them.” – Ken Klippenstein

Election 2028: Rubio is Kamikaze Genghis Kahn to JD Vance’s Peter Sellers in ‘Being There’ – “JD Vance and Rubio think they are running for president in 2028. As such, everything they do and say is prompted for that event. However, both of them are role playing on a stage set. They are not Being Themselves and don’t understand that this will be a broad bust failure.” – Helena Glass

Burnham is the New UK PM: Where’s the Mandate? – “In all the excitement, the government forgot to ask the people.” – Mark Angelides

UK migrant racket: One village has had enough – “Piddington wants out of Britain, reflecting rising fury as tiny communities are told to absorb migrants with no consent or security” – Robert Bridge

Mugshots of minorities booked as “White” to keep national stats low for crimes committed by race (VIDEO) – BP News – AMAZING!!!!!

Nicaragua says no to Monroe – “As Daniel Ortega abandons the pretense of electoral choice, China gives his regime new confidence to defy Washington and the moribund Monroe Doctrine.” – Collapse Life

Burkina Faso and Israel: The Sahel and the realignment of regional balances in West Africa – “Ibrahim Traoré’s Burkina Faso, navigating pragmatically between Tehran and Tel Aviv, between Moscow and Beijing, and now attempting to open a channel with Israel just as it severs ties with Paris, is not making an ideological choice, but rather executing a balancing maneuver typical of a state that, having broken with its historical ally, must necessarily expand its network of partners to avoid finding itself in a state of strategic isolation. ” – Lorenzo Maria Pacini – TRAORE’ APPEARS TO BE NO DUMMY!!!

Trump Reaches For A 1930 Tariff Law To Hit Canada With 50% Duties – But Not On These Items – “This is not a blanket levy on everything crossing the northern border, and what got left out is as revealing as what got hit. Oil – of which Canada is the largest foreign supplier to American refineries – is exempt. So is potash, the fertilizer input U.S. farmers depend on and cannot readily source elsewhere. What remains is still enormous. The covered list runs from milk and cream to alcohol, hockey equipment, food products, construction materials, clothing, furniture, technology, and car parts,” – Tyler Durden

ECONOMIC NEWS

Trump’s 18-Month Deadline To Cut Electricity Prices in Half Has Arrived. Rates Are Up 18%. – ‘Yet another broken campaign promise.” – Jeff Luse

An oil lifeline is under threat, and markets have yet to price in the growing crisis – “Oil futures surge as Houthi threat to Saudi port endangers crucial Red Sea workaround” – Claudia Assis and Myra P. Saefong

Flickers of Hope in a Black Sea of Carnage – “The oil market delivered its full delusional powers today while not delivering much oil. Ponder the realty-based path Forget smoking the petroleum-based hopium. Ponder reality. If you want to see what is likely to happen with oil prices, consider how the rising price in oil was buffered during the first part of this war and what has happened to those buffers since then:” – David Haggith

Goldman Warns Brent Could Top $120 If Gulf Chokepoint Crisis Deepens – “Brent crude futures are trading in the low $90s as the Gulf area escalation enters a tenth consecutive day. Iran attacked a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz, while two tankers carrying Saudi crude reversed course in the southern Red Sea after warnings from Iran-backed Houthi forces placed another critical maritime chokepoint under threat.” – Tyler Durden

Oh Dear, Condo Prices Fell by 15% to 33% in 30 Bigger Cities Already. Some Dropped Back to 2006 Levels – “In another 39 bigger cities, condo prices fell by 8% to 14%. A massive hangover after a historic Condo Bubble.” – Wolf Richter

Central Bank Gold Demand Continues – “Despite some selling that materialized in March after the start of the U.S. war with Iran, global central bank gold demand continued at a torrid pace in the first half of 2026, and this desire for physical metal underpins and supports the derivative-based gold price.” – Craig Hemke

How to Plant Strawberries + Tips for Success – “Nothing says summer to me quite like fresh, ripe strawberries.” – Melissa K. Norris

Follow The Freight: What Shipping Delays And Rail Problems Mean For Your Pantry – “Most people notice shortages when the shelf is already empty. A prepper should notice them earlier. Food does not appear at the grocery store by magic. It moves through a long chain of ports, rail yards, truck routes, warehouses, fuel stops, distribution centers, and store back rooms. When that chain runs well, nobody thinks about it. When it starts to fail, the first signs often show up far from the grocery aisle. A port backs up. A rail line slows down. Diesel prices jump. At first, these things sound like business news. A few weeks later, they can become higher prices, delayed deliveries, missing brands, and thin shelves. That is why preppers should learn to follow the freight.” – Alec Deacon

Why Didn’t My Canning Jars Seal? – “There are few things more discouraging than pulling a beautiful batch of home-canned food out of the canner, waiting for that satisfying ping… and then realizing one or more jars never sealed. If you’ve ever found yourself asking, “Why didn’t my canning jars seal?”, you’re certainly not alone. Even after more than two decades of canning and preserving thousands of jars of food for my family, I still experience an occasional seal failure. The good news is that most seal failures can be traced back to just a handful of common causes.” – Carolyn Thomas

Can you read globaldy–gook. The New Safe and Effective is Speech described as Political Violence. The whole of administration response in the US and Canada are the same. Oh wait, it’s the world. – “WORLD ON MUTE. The left and right are baited into focusing on each other while ignoring the globalist takeover that is mimicked in each country. Same laws different incentivizing thesis, and antithesis.” – LawyerLisa

Who Watches the Watchers? – “Trust is important. Verification is essential.” – Brian C. Joondeph

Welcome to Hellth: the cult that worships the gods of sickness. – “Exhibit 1, Bryan Johnson, the “Hellthiest man”: Yup, the pasty drug-addicted fembot “biohacker” who spends $2 million/year on 30 doctors, transfuses his son’s blood, being Epstein’s close friend (thousands of mentions in the files), and chasing [a highly unoriginal] idea fixe about living forever … has given himself a serious “autoimmune” disease. According to Bryan Johnson, his stomach is eating itself… If I were his stomach, I would have considered a stomach-cide, too. Imagine the horror of facing an eternity of militant plant-based diet, starvation and chemical assault! More importantly, imagine the pit of fear and hubris that fills the hole where Bryan’s God-given mind used to be… Please note that I believe Bryan Johnson is a fake – he is an actor, playing a reality show with placed commercials in it.” – Sasha Latypova

CDC Just Awarded Pfizer $1.2 Billion for COVID-19 Shots – Amber Baker – MORE MAHAHAHAHA 😂 😂 😂 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“Executive Order:” The Word Everyone Uses and Nobody Explains – “Every few weeks, cable news lights up with the same scene: a president sits at a desk, signs a piece of paper, holds it up for the cameras, and suddenly the banner reads “PRESIDENT ORDERS…” as if a king has just spoken. People watch that and usually think one of two things: either, “He can just do that?” or, “That’s not how laws work. This is a dictatorship.” Nobody explains what an executive order actually is. So let’s fix that. No spin. No side-picking. Just the mechanics. It’s Not a Law. It’s a Memo to the Staff. An executive order cannot create a crime, repeal a statute, raise taxes, or rewrite the Constitution. What it can do is tell the millions of people who work inside the executive branch — agencies, regulators, the military, federal contractors, and federal employees — how to do their jobs.” – Kerry Lutz

Wildfire Smoke: Is Hazardous Air the New Normal? – “Dangerous wildfire smoke from Canada is smothering the Midwest.” – Elizabeth Lawrence

Living With and Among GMO – “Some good, some bad, just like most everything. The corn field bordering our vineyard did something odd this year. We were deep in drought—the kind that cracks the clay—10 weeks of no rain—and the corn came up anyway. That’s modern agronomy working as designed. The farmer drilled his corn in the midst of drought at a density that would have caused a 1990s farmer to shake his head. A crop that shrugs off three dry months and still fills out the ear is something special. It is GMO.” – John Hunt, MD – GOOD ARTICLE, BUT DOESN’T GET RID OF ALL MY DOUBTS ON GMOs!!!!

Feds Struggled to Claw Back Covid Fraud while Schemers Put Down Payments on Yachts, Lamborghinis – “COVID-19 programs to help families and businesses stay afloat inadvertently diverted hundreds of billions to scammers who spent thousands on wish-list items like luxury cars and plastic surgery. The actual amount of pandemic-related fraud, however, is unknown not only to us but also to the federal government. What’s more, the amount that the federal government has recouped makes up a scant 0.47% of the government’s fraud guestimate.” – OpenTheBooks

NEWS

Does Trump’s Lack of Credibility Impact the Deep State? – “Trump seems to think his personal credibility shares the qualities he assumes of his Patriot PAC-3 interceptors, Tomahawks, US manufactured drones, and US soldiers and Marines: unlimited and invincible. He seems to be wasting all of these assets in a way that makes a citizen wonder what Trump’s clown-like role really is, vis a vis the deep state. Whether his problem is a lack of information, his inability to logically process the information he is exposed to, or a personality or age-related defect related to his narcissism may be debated. Most people recognize that US presidents selected or elected since 1963 are truly captured elements of the deep state, a neocolonial entity that requires war and resource confiscation abroad – and at home – to sustain itself.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

US Troop Casualties Pile Up as Iran Goes to Town on US Bases – “The conflict has erupted anew, and Iran has now struck back in a major way, killing and wounding US troops:” – Simplicius

War On Iran: – Hit On U.S. In Saudi Arabia And Jordan – Yemen Declares SA Blockade – “The war on Iran continues to escalate. Last night the U.S. again bombed various cities in Iran hitting military as well as civilian targets. Iran responded by hitting U.S. installation in various Gulf countries. Remarkable was an attack on the Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia:” – Moon of Alabama

Andy Burnham takes the reins as U.K.’s 7th prime minister in a decade – “If you’re struggling to keep up with who is running the United Kingdom, you’re not alone. Keir Starmer, who led his Labour Party to a landslide election victory just two years ago, left the prime minister’s office at 10 Downing Street on Monday to be replaced by Labour’s new leader, Andy Burnham. After being asked by King Charles III to form a new government on Monday — a constitutional formality that sealed his rise to power — Burnham became Britain’s 7th prime minister in a decade. ” – Imtiaz Tyab

Andy Burnham’s Cringe Britannia – “The vibes may have changed, but naff all else has. So ends the most boring coup in British political history. Andy Burnham is our new prime minister, Keir Starmer’s leaving van is on its way to north London, and we’re all left wondering whether this latest round of musical chairs will make the blindest bit of difference.” – Tom Slater

Reporter Nails Mamdani When He Has Trouble Defining What ‘Working Class’ Means – “We hear it from the socialists all the time: “We’re working for the working class.” This is a whole lot of nonsense; everything they do hurts the working class (not to mention so many others as well). But do they even know what the working class is? If you listen to what New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the well-off son of well-off parents, said to a reporter, you might wonder if they do, as he struggled to define it.” – Nick Arama

NBA Boss Calls Caitlin Clark A “Political Football” Over Racism Controversy – “There would be no racial controversy if the black ladies would stop attacking the white lady while the refs do nothing… The WNBA has been the butt of jokes for decades. One would think that any player that doubles (in some cases triples) the viewership of league games by her mere presence would be widely celebrated by all the people involved including the commission, but sadly, this has not been the case with Caitlin Clark. Clark’s expertise and superior ability on the court has brought new life to a floundering sport; the problem is, she’s relatively new to the league and, she’s white.” – Tyler Durden

Student loan defaults hit record highs in wake of COVID-tied payments pause expiration – “Defaults on student loans have surged across the United States, reaching record levels as borrowers struggle to keep up with payments. The numbers have spiked since payments came due again following a lengthy pause intended to provide relief during the COVID-19 pandemic. Today, around 9.5 million people – 1 in 5 federal student loan borrowers – are in default, meaning they are more than nine months behind on their payments.” – AP

Buyers Trading In Vehicles With Negative Equity Face Record Monthly Payments: Edmunds – “Nearly 30% of U.S. auto trade-ins had negative equity in the second quarter.” – Rob Sabo

The Fed Has Quietly Given Up on 2% – “The Fed is going to raise its inflation target. It might be difficult to believe, but for most of its history, the Fed didn’t have a formal inflation target. The target rate of 2% that everyone quotes was first suggested by Janet Yellen behind closed doors when Alan Greenspan was Fed Chair in 1996. The Fed appears to have adopted that target at the time but didn’t publicly state it until 2012. I bring all of this up because throughout the inflationary storm of 2021-2023, the Fed proclaimed that its policies would bring inflation back to this target of 2%.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Oh My Fucking God, They’re Doing It Again – “Wall Street is again using insurance guarantees to turn difficult-to-rate credit exposure into highly rated securities. Assholes who wear Vineyard Vines all summer on Wall Street have once again put those Wharton PhD’s to good use by again “discovering” that assets so toxic and illiquid they make drinking cement taste like Fiji water apparently become safe when you rearrange them, rename them, and place an insurance company between the losses and the people buying them.

We Are Called To Forgiveness – “One teaching of Jesus which is reiterated throughout the Gospel accounts of His ministry here on Earth is that we are to forgive one another for our many mistakes. We are going to screw up. We are going to hurt people. We are going to sin. If you are living anywhere other than a deserted island, your own life experience is frank testimony to this. People have sinned against you, and you have sinned against other people. We have all sinned against God.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Immunity Without Limits – ” Donald Trump’s mind is a bad dream, yet some continue to support him, making excuses for his restarting the war with Iran, when he had no intention to keep to the MoU that he signed onto. When asked, how, after months of a war that failed, he now expects the same tactics to bring victory, he puts out that 47 days of war is preferable to a terrorist nation with nukes. That’s the case, but Israel is the terrorist nation with nuclear weapons and, were Trump obliged to answer questions honestly, in an open forum, he could be easily exposed by 7th grade debaters. Trump is totally ignorant concerning Iran. Although he’s likely been informed that Iran was not developing a nuclear weapon, he could care less. What Trump requires is control of the oil—and the Straight of Hormuz.” – Erik@neverhadaboss.com

And they will do anything to avoid you continuing to live free in this country, up to and including murdering you, because that’s who they are. If Russia or China offered to help them seize power, they’d take the deal no matter what they asked for in return. After 250 years, one of our political parties has become infested with traitors the way an old dead tree becomes infested with termites.” – Derek Hunter

News Media Have a Little Fun Mocking More of AOC’s Strangely Changing Accent – “Ocasio-Cortez also went to Tennessee to support the far-left state representative Justin Pearson in his run for the House for the 9th district seat. While she was there, she put on an embarrassing accent. As I noted, she’s from the suburbs of New York City; she’s not from the South or whatever the heck this accent is. She’s pulling a “Kamala Harris/Hillary Clinton move,” with an accent that seems to change depending on whom she’s talking. It didn’t go over well for them, and I don’t think that it’s going to go over well for her. Whether people agree with whatever she might say from a policy perspective, what people never really like is politicians being fake or inauthentic. ” – Nick Arama

Mission Creep: Lake Chad Basin As America’s Next Forever War? – ” As Washington celebrates tactical wins against Islamic State affiliates in Nigeria, Americans should demand policymakers pause.

The calls from the most extreme Russian segments to ‘turn Kiev into a parking lot’, ‘raze it to the ground’ etc. have been solemnly ignored by Vladimir Putin and his military commanders.

That same day, the People’s Bank of China, the country’s central bank, reported its largest monthly gold purchase since 2023. Central banks are relatively price insensitive. They buy gold as a long term hedge to preserve value, not to trade back for more paper. But they aren’t stupid either, and this shows they are buying the dip. The reason is simple: nothing has changed about why they buy.” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

Maybe Central Banks Are Gold-Price Sensitive After All – “Which is a very good thing. For a while now, analysts (including this one) have been predicting that central banks will keep buying gold regardless of its price, thereby smoothing out the normal ups and downs in that market. But recent action implies that central banks do care about what they’re paying for gold — which, at this point in the cycle, is a good thing.” – John Rubino

SHTF Plan: Are You Ready to Survive Your Own SHTF Moment? – “When it comes to preparedness information, far too many so-called survival experts spend their time obsessing over events that have roughly a one-in-a-billion chance of actually touching your life. It’s not that massive, nation-level catastrophes never happen. They do. But the big events rarely arrive with a special news bulletin the way disaster movies like to pretend. Just look at Hurricane Katrina. Just look at Venezuela’s economic collapse. Neither one showed up overnight. Both unfolded over weeks, months, even years — gradual at first, then all at once. The people who got wrecked were the ones who were waiting for a dramatic announcement before they started taking things seriously.” – Off The Grid

Well, I went home with the waitress
The way I always do
How was I to know
She was with the Russians, too

I was gambling in Havana
I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns and money
Dad, get me out of this

I’m the innocent bystander
Somehow I got stuck
Between the rock and the hard place
And I’m down on my luck
And I’m down on my luck
And I’m down on my luck

Now I’m hiding in Honduras
I’m a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns and money

THE BIG PICTURE

The Eclipse of the Soul – “Humanity is unravelling. In the span of just a few generations—scarcely a century—we have witnessed a precipitous decline in the quality of our shared life. The symptoms are everywhere: drugs flooding communities, garbage choking landscapes, ethics treated as quaint relics, families dissolving, and relationships reduced to transactions. Many sense the rot but struggle to name its root. The cause, at bottom, is simple yet profound: we have ceased to value what is real.” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP

Jesus & the Mysteries of Light Exploring the Teachings From the Son of God. We speak of it as though it has always been exactly as we hold it today, whole, unchanging, and complete, yet the evidence tells a very different story. Generation after generation has reached in, removed what did not suit them, smoothed what troubled them, and shaped the words until they fitted the beliefs of those in power. As though the truth itself could be made to fit inside a box of another’s making. Gospels are gone entirely. Epistles have been cast aside. Visions and revelations, once cherished and read aloud by whole communities, were condemned and forgotten And so I wonder, with a quiet and earnest heart; who, exactly, took it upon themselves to decide that the greater majority of souls should receive only a curated portion, rather than the whole?” – Jordan Nuttall

Justin Trudeau Helps Katy Perry Promote New Song About Burning Churches Down – “With more than 120 religious institutions attacked and over 96 percent of the arson cases still unresolved, the imagery has struck a nerve among Canadians still waiting for answers.” – Frank Bergman

Three recent eclipses drew a warning across America (VIDEO) – “Abraham Ojeda of Overcome Babylon connects three eclipses, two major fault zones, and a biblical pattern that may still be unfolding across America. Ojeda connects the 2017, 2023, and 2024 eclipses to an ancient biblical symbol, earlier periods of upheaval, and two of the most dangerous fault zones in North America. He also links the eclipse paths to Iran, the shifting balance between East and West, and the increasingly fragile systems on which modern life depends.” – Collapse Life – VERY INTERESTING, WATCH WHEN YOU HAVE TIME.!!!!!!!

From the United Nations’ Global Digital Compact to the World Economic Forum’s smart-grid initiatives, the building blocks are being laid in identical fashion across the Western world. Step one is the deployment of localized broadband networks to establish permanent physical access pipelines across private land.” – Connie Shields

Rigor Tortoise? – “They tell us the Dirty Old Turtle – Senator Mitch McConnell – is not only alive but in good enough condition to pose for a picture with his wife. He looks alert enough and well enough in the picture, so how come we haven’t seen or even heard any more of him? Why does he not speak? Why are there no videos of him up and about? How come he’s not back at work? Isn’t that what he’s being paid (by taxpayers) to do? How many of us could disappear for a month and still be getting paid by our employers? Oh, yes. Of course. Our employers have the power to fire us because we work for them and if we do not work, then off we go. Common sense suggests McConnell is at the very least incapacitated, if not actually plastron up. If you’re old enough to remember the old Soviet Union, you probably remember when the various doddering old men who led it would just disappear and we’d be told they just had a cold and were just fine, really. After awhile, when the official lies could no longer be maintained, it was admitted that Comrade Brezhnev or Comrade Andropov or Comrade Chernenko had died. An interesting thing to recall is that Comrade Brezhnev was just 79 years old when he died. Almost youthful relative to the Dirty Old Turtle, who is 84” – Eric Peters

Senator Lindsey Graham’s Funeral Details Announced: What to Know – “The late U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham will be memorialized in Washington D.C. on Tuesday, July 28, his office announced Friday. Graham’s South Carolina funeral services will take place in Pickens County and Columbia the following day. “The funeral arrangements have been complicated by the fact that so many global leaders would like to attend,” Scott said. “And so the process of figuring out when the National Cathedral would be made available at the exact same time that the global leadership would want to come, and all the other national leaders who will be there, that has made it a little more difficult to get it done this week.”” – Gabe Whisnant and Hannah Parry – IN OTHER WORDS THEY HAD TO GET THE BODY BACK FROM UKRAINE.

The president front loaded more lies into his speech than I thought any politician could tell in a single speech, but I want to start with one statement that was true temporarily because it is critical for you to understand it is a deceptive fact of the moment which the headline evidence would appear to support as true.

Cyclospora Is Trending!!! – “The curious timing of parasite headlines…never let a good outbreak go to waste 😂 Surely you have heard plenty about the cyclosporiasis parasite? Apparently it’s causing explosive diarrhea across the country. I’m receiving regular notifications about what it is, where it’s coming from, and what you can do to protect yourself. 🤫pssssst…. it comes from FECAL MATTER on fresh produce. Which is gross, however not rocket science, folks. Constant updates seem entirely unnecessary. So apparently this uber contagious parasite that comes from fecal matter is hard to study because it can’t be continuously cultured (grown) in a Petri dish 😂. Which means they are going to have a really hard time making a helpful “vaccine” for an issue that should be addressed through basic hygiene. Oh look it’s mRNA technology for parasites! 👇” – Conspiracy Sarah

Election Integrity: Is Representative Democracy A Foolish Fantasy? – “The US Constitution is perhaps the most significant historical and governmental document in a millennia. It’s a document and an ideal that gave birth to an epoch. However, our constitutional republic was created based on conditions that, frankly, no longer exist. The American population was 95% Christian. The implementation of “patriarchy” was widespread and embraced as the most solid foundation for society. Meritocracy was absolute. Cultural identity was rooted in western civilization without any deviation or distraction. Marxism did not exist. Atheism was rare. Degeneracy was shunned or punished. Shame was an effective social tool. Psychopathy was easy to identify and remove from within the smaller population…. In 2026, many Americans still treat the notion of representative democracy as sacrosanct and untouchable, even though they don’t really know why. They just think it’s about freedom, but, they are basing their devout reverence on a system that used to work because it heavily restricted who was allowed to participate.” – Brandon Smith

Trump Moves to Derail 2026 Midterm Election- ” President declares China, Russia, Iran, Cuba, North Korea, and non-state troublemakers are interfering in elections. President Trump went on primetime television and told the nation China finagled the 2020 election” – Kurt Nimmo

Acceleration – “Strange to relate, in last night’s speech to the nation on election chicanery, President Trump managed to both overwhelm and underwhelm public expectation. He touched on voting machine shenanigans, registration skullduggery, cyber-fuckery, labor union toolery, ballot fraud, and especially China meddling. Internal CIA / FBI docs at the time said that China’s policy around the 2020 US election was to “leverage all domestic and foreign elements” opposed to the President to prevent his re-election. The Intel bunch never sent that memo to the White House. They were too busy pushing fake Russia meddling, fake impeachment, and a fake Covid-19 pandemic. Then they declared that the 2020 was “the most secure election in history.”” – James Howard Kunstler

THE LIAR-in-CHIEF – “The news today has more headlines about Trump’s corruption and his lies than about the Trump-Israel-Iran War that is getting hotter everyday. Trump keeps repeating the same tired and utterly failed lie that Iran badly wants to make a deal. He’s said it again a few times since the latest schmeasefire fell all apart. Here, in the news today, is how badly Iran wants to make a deal: Iran Parliament Votes to HALT ALL Negotiations with USA.

California farm company identified as possible cyclosporiasis outbreak – “CNN and others are also reporting the ongoing investigation into Taylor Farms as a source of the cyclosporiasis outbreak.

10 Proven Brands That Get Their Lettuce From Taylor Farms – “Taylor Farms supplies shredded iceberg lettuce to Taco Bell restaurants, which is part of Yum! Brands. This lettuce was linked to a recent cyclosporiasis outbreak in the US, causing thousands of confirmed cases and hospitalizations. Taylor Farms distributes its produce through third parties to chain restaurants including McDonald’s and Chipotle Mexican Grill. The company is a major supplier to many large foodservice restaurants in the United States. Nearly every major supermarket chain in the United States stocks Taylor Farms products. Walk into a Whole Foods, Kroger, Walmart, Safeway, or regional chain, and the salad kits, pre-cut vegetables, and fresh greens in the produce section often originate from Taylor Farms facilities. ” – Sarah Anderson

Congress Moves Toward Making Daylight Saving Time Permanent – “This die-hard morning girl (and history) have concerns.” – Jenna McCarthy

Congress Just Moved to Take the Epstein Files Away From the Justice Department – “On the morning of July 15, Todd Blanche — the Acting Attorney General of the United States, serving since President Trump’s ouster of Pam Bondi in April and formally nominated in June — sat before the Senate Judiciary Committee for his confirmation hearing. He told the committee that “mistakes were made” in the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files, but that the disclosure was an exercise in unprecedented transparency. The same day, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act II — H.R. 9694, per the sponsors’ announcement. The timing is not a coincidence. It is a message: the man testifying for the permanent job is the named defendant-in-waiting of the bill introduced that morning. The coverage will tell you, accurately, that the bill lets state attorneys general and Epstein’s victims sue the Attorney General for withholding files. Massie states the Department “continues to unlawfully withhold over 3 million Epstein files”; ” – Sayer Ji

House Votes to Block Financial Institutions Using Credit Cards to Track Gun Sales – “As it stands, there are already too many ways to figure out who has guns and who doesn’t. For all the guys worried about posting pictures of their guns online for fear the ATF will know who has what, I hate to break it to ya, they probably already have a way of knowing.” – Tom Knighton

When Israeli Handlers Put In The order for Assassination… – “October 2026 Brazil will be holding their Presidential election. The two candidates are Lula and Flavio Bolsonaro, the son of Jair. To punish Brazilians, Trump has levied a 25% Tariff effective the 23rd. In Trump’s view, the people of Brazil will vote for Bolsonaro because of the tariffs he is imposing linking them to Lula. It is called ‘Election Interference By a Foreign Government’ and it is HIGHLY ILLEGAL. But then the entire Trump apparatus violates international law and American Law, with pride.

Cushing Crude Inventories Near ‘Tank Bottom’ Operating Levels, EIA Says – “Crude oil inventories at the Cushing, Oklahoma, storage hub have fallen below 20 million barrels in recent weeks, prompting the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) to explain how “tank bottoms” can affect storage operations and market pricing. According to EIA, storage tanks require a minimum volume of crude oil to remain operational. Known as tank bottoms, this inventory allows pumps and related infrastructure to function properly. Once inventories approach these minimum operating levels, not all stored crude is readily accessible, even though tanks are not technically empty.” – Pipeline & Gas Journal – LOOKS LIKE THE 💩 IS HITTING THE FAN!!!!!!

Gulf war and gold – “In the fog of war, truth is the casualty. Gold and silver prices will reflect uncertainty over outcomes. All that traders know for now is that bond yields might rise further. Well-informed analysts who follow geopolitical developments have concluded that America and Israel have lost the war against Iran, and Hormuz will remain closed. But investors are driven by sentiment, which is basically their reading of past market trends relative to current prices. Never has the gulf between the two assessments been greater.

THE BIG PICTURE

Exploring the Hidden Gospel – “The Secret Sayings of Jesus. Of all the wisdom kept from our sight, of all the truths never taught to us, what follows stands among the greatest. It is not locked away in some vault, you may find it with but a few keystrokes. Yet it remains almost entirely unknown, seen only in quiet circles and among those who seek the old books. The Gospel of Thomas This is not a text that was passed down openly through the ages, nor one you will find resting between the gospels upon the shelf. For centuries it was known only through faint whispers and scattered references, its very existence debated, doubted, and ultimately set aside, as though those in authority had decided it was not meant to be read. Then in the year 1945, within the dry and quiet earth of Nag Hammadi in Egypt, a great treasure was unearthed, curious mind. An ancient library sealed within clay jars, hidden away perhaps by those who feared what it contained, and there preserved across seventeen hundred years lay this Gospel written in the ancient Coptic tongue, waiting patiently through all those centuries for the moment when the world might once again be ready to hear it.” – Jordan Nuttall

The Killing Machines – “Governments and Technology Obsessing Over Efficient Death. Personally, I don’t think there is a better definition of insanity than the way humans delight in war and death. Yes, there was a time when killing your neighbour because they wouldn’t let you eat an apple growing on their side of the tribal fence made a tiny bit of sense. But what it has evolved into today is pure insanity. Humans are supposed to be capable of compassion. We are supposed to be able to sort out our differences with other tribes. We are supposed to care more about human life than we did in the cave days, when it was all about survival and who would or would not get the apple.” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP

The Problem Isn’t Flock or Ring – “These Flock (and Ring) cameras that are popping up everywhere are worrying but not for the right reason. Would you worry about a Flock or Ring camera if neither the government nor corporations (in “partnership” with the government) had any power to use the data collected against you? That’s the substantive objection. People have had cameras for longer than anyone currently living has been alive. It was and still is common for ordinary people to take pictures and videos in public. Few of us cared that we maybe got included in a picture or video taken by someone else taking pictures or videos – because why would we?” – Eric Peters

The True Cost of Trump Accounts (VIDEO) – “This is part of my ongoing investigation into the National Design Studio. Please see parts one and two. Imagine you have just given birth, and no one can tell you why the baby will not stop crying. You are sweating, your hands are shaking, and you are holding against your chest a person you met a few minutes ago and already love with a force that frightens you. You do not know if you are doing any of it right, and you are too tired to ask. In the middle of this a pleasant person comes in with a clipboard. Just a signature, they tell you, and a box to check if you want your baby to have a Social Security number. Of course you do. You check it and sign your name, and you do not read a word of the form, because you are holding your whole life in one arm and a pen in the other. What no one in that room tells you is that the box you just checked starts a second clock. That Social Security number is now keyed to a brokerage account run by a stock-trading app called Robinhood. It comes with a thousand dollars of federal money inside (if you are reading this before 2028) and the government plans to open one automatically for every newborn in the country.” – Audrey Henson / The Drey Dossier

Humpety-Trumpety’s Great Big Fall – “There has never been a more foolish Oval Office decision than the Donald’s order to the US armed forces to join Israel’s blatant aggression against Iran on February 28th. And to do so without even the pretense of consulting with a single leader of Congress—the very body delegated by the Constitution with the power to make war. The fact is, on February 27th, there was no attack on Guam, Puerto Rico or even any of the numerous US “armed forces” bases in the Persian Gulf. And as for an attack on the homeland territory of the United States itself—there wasn’t even a snowball’s chance in the hot place of that. Iran had no blue water Navy— and long before Trump sunk a few coastal vessels.” – David Stockman

Apparently in the United States of Israel you put your senate seat in your will. Lindsey Grahams sister just inherited the US political system and swallowed it whole. – “Who thinks this is bat shit crazy??? And not remotely the political system. All sitting politicians should show us their will. Oh you’re a mayor and die? Whose the new aipac mayor, trustee, judge, AG? Blah blah blah. Noahide decapitator. Oh it’s satan running the show? Why has Lindsey Graham’s sister inherited his Senate seat after his death? The late senator’s sister, the politically inexperienced Darline Graham Nordone, has inherited his office and powers. Because she was there for his speeches. So were these people. Attend a speech in the last decade? You could inherit an AIPAC POSITION IN ANY GOVERNMENT on the planet. It’s ok. Just catch the war ball.” – LawyerLisa

Leak: Rubio’s WMD Scandal Is “Far-Left Terrorism” – “U.S. targets “anti-tech,” “pro-Iranian” & “antisemitic networks” with new three-letter designation.

Senate Vote Stuns Netanyahu, Shows Support For Israel Slipping – “This past weekend, Israel Prime Minister Netanyahu was brimming with confidence that the U.S. and Israeli militaries would be merged into a unified partnership by the U.S. Congress due to the presence of Section 224 in the NDAA. But on Tuesday, Netanyahu was shocked and crestfallen by what happened in the U.S. Senate. As stated, the reason for voting against the bill was opposition to Trump’s illegal war of aggression against Iran (which is being fought exclusively for Israel), and no one was unaware of the significance of Section 224 being inserted into the bill. This is an incredible and almost miraculous setback for Israel. Senate Republicans voted unanimously (with the lone exception of Senator John Thune who voted “Nay” for procedural reasons, so he could later make a motion to reconsider the bill) in favor of the bill. Yes, that means Senator Rand Paul voted FOR the bill. A supreme disappointment!” – Chuck Baldwin

Nobody Knows the Real Inflation Number – “Depending on which official measure you select, inflation in May was approximately 3%, 4% or 7%. The official Consumer Price Index rose 4.2% over the previous 12 months. So-called “core CPI,” which leaves out food and energy prices, rose 2.9%. The Federal Reserve’s preferred Personal Consumption Expenditures index rose 4.1%, while core PCE (which also excludes food and energy prices) rose 3.4%. Then there are the Atlanta Fed’s sticky- and flexible-price indexes. Sticky-price inflation rose 3.1% Flexible-price inflation rose 7% That is an awfully wide range… But it does not necessarily mean anyone is lying. Each index measures something different. That’s why the numbers disagree.” – Peter Reagan
