Nothing New Under The Sun 2016

THE BIG PICTURE

Watching the Watchers! – “A guy named Anthony Sistilli decided to make some sauce for the gander, so to speak. He built his own iteration on the Flock/Axon cameras that the watchers are using to watch us only these cameras watch the watchers. You’d think they wouldn’t mind. After all, if they’ve got nothing to hide . . . Of course, the watchers – law enforcement, as they accurately like to style themselves – did not like it. They paid a visit to Sistilli’s home to make that plain. “We just want to ask you what the main goal is,” one of the watchers asks. “What (do) you plan to do with all of that”? When we – the watched – ask the same question, the watchers invariably say it’s all about keep us “safe.” Of course, it’s actually about keeping us watched.” – Eric Peters

The Great Unraveling Has Begun – “The Reset is Beneath the Rubble. What we are living through is not a collection of separate accidents, bad luck, or ordinary government incompetence. This is not just another great Boom and Bust cycle, rather something uniquely different. The systems that modern life depends on—money, energy, food, and the ability of nations to make their own decisions—are being deliberately weakened at the same time. This coordinated removal of the supports that hold civilization up is akin to global rug pull.” – The Do Not Comply Guy⁠

Intifada for All – “Looks like the punishments will continue across the pond until morale improves. France on fire in the “mostly peaceful” riots — according to the BBC — this past weekend could yet ignite a final, furious, Globalist-Jacobin bid to wreck Western Civ as populist nationalism looms ever larger to defeat them. That is, whatever the demonic coalition of desperate Euro elites backed by the Soros NGO empire, the WEF, the UN bureaucracy, possibly the British Crown, and the EU, can induce their Lefty-left useful idiots to act out intifada-style against the people and their culture. President Macron stepped up Sunday to ask, “How can French people do this to France?” as the ancient tower of the Limoges city hall collapsed in flames. Somebody please inform him that the parties responsible for all the fiery chaos are not necessarily French people.” – James Howard Kunstler

Synchronized Riots, Arson, Looting And Major Architectural Destruction Sweep France, Parts of Italy, And Even Albania: Louvre Museum In Imminent Danger. Macron: “No Room For Violence In Our Republic.” – Celia Farber

French Bonds, Stocks Drop As Far-Left, Migrant Riots Worsen; Macron Fails To Restore Order – “President Emmanuel Macron conveniently blamed high gas prices, while lefty corporate media ran cover and really tried to reinforce the narrative (again) that these rioters were merely youth-led protesters. CBS News got caught calling riots “scuffles” and subsequently deleted the X post. In reality, France and much of Europe are being attacked from within by far-left groups, and this is really embarrassing, as globalist leaders in the failing bloc have allowed left-wing extremism to fester for years.” -Tyler Durden

Trump Administration Runs Third-Largest Federal Budget Deficit in History – “You can add spending cuts, DOGE, and fixing the budget with tariffs to the mountain of broken promises dominating the Washington, D.C. skyline. The Trump administration just ran the biggest budget deficit in five years.” – Mike Maharrey  – TOUCHED ON THIS BRIEFLY ON FRIDAY. HERE’S A COUPLE WITH A LITTLE MORE DEPTH!!!

The FY 2026 deficit was $2 trillion… and no one cares – “On Friday afternoon the Treasury Department released its final numbers for fiscal year 2026, which just ended on September 30, and the results are pretty much what you’d expect: horrible, appalling, inexcusable. And once again, mandatory spending— things like Social Security and Medicare— plus interest on the debt, exceeded 100% of tax revenue. In other words, they could have literally furloughed the entire US military, shut down the national parks, laid off the TSA, etc., and there still would have been a budget deficit. That’s just beyond pitiful. The saddest part is how few people take this seriously. Hardly anyone in Congress seems to care. No one on either side is jumping up and down and shouting from the rooftops that they have to cut this budget, and do it immediately.” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

The Katie Zacharia Saga & the Many Perils of the Press Secretary – “Goodbye Katie, we hardly knew ye. Blonde and beautiful may get you in the door, but once you’re there, you need to do the job. Zacharia’s first presser with the angry mob known as the White House Press Corps didn’t go well.” – Leesa K. Donner

Canada’s Carney accuses the U.S. of trying to break his country up – “A pathetic, thin-skinned, globalist clown blames all of his country’s troubles on Trump instead of on his Liberal Party policies of the past 13 years.” – Eric Utter

Albertans vote on path to independence as Carney fights to keep Canada united – “Monday’s vote is not a direct referendum on independence. Alberta, home to most of Canada’s proven oil reserves — the fourth largest in the world — will decide whether to remain a province or begin the legal process toward a future referendum on separation. More than 1.35 million Albertans, or 43% of eligible voters, cast advance or special ballots ahead of the referendum, far exceeding the 810,000 who voted early in the 2023 provincial election.” – Rob Gillies

Britain is Accelerating Towards Crisis – “Despite admitting mass immigration is damaging the country, the ruling classes fail to secure the border while clamping down on dissent.” – David Betz and Michael Rainsborough.

Israel-Backed Palestinian Militias Terrorize Displaced Families in Gaza – “Over the past year, attacks by Israel-backed Palestinian militias have become increasingly frequent in Gaza, particularly targeting Palestinians living close to the ever expanding “yellow line.”” – Abdel Qader Sabbah and Sharif Abdel Kouddous⁠

How the Ukraine War Started (as shown in two videos) – “First, Obama grabbed Ukraine’s government: Then he ordered his imposed government to exterminate (or else terrorize enough of the region’s non-nazis to flee into Russia) enough of the new government’s opponents so that the remaining voters under the U.S.-imposed new, neo-nazi, government would think acceptable to be supplied in their ‘democratic’ elections ONLY pro-nazis (pro-U.S.-regime, Russia-hating, candidates) as being the new Ukraine’s political candidates: That’s how it started — NOT on 24 February 2022 such as the U.S. regime says, but in 2014, when the U.S. regime grabbed Ukraine because it is the only country whose border is only 300 miles away from The Kremlin.” – Eric Zuesse

Putin Proposes Summit With Trump And Xi To Negotiate End Of Ukraine War; Zelensky Not Invited – “Amid an escalating war that appears to get farther from any hope of a ceasefire, let alone peace, late on Sunday the WSJ reported that Vladimir Putin has proposed that he, President Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping meet next month to talk about Ukraine in an attempt to negotiate an end to the four-year conflict that would favor Moscow.” – Tyler Durden

Even though Big Macs have gone up in price, gold and silver have gone up much faster.” – Silver Dragons – GOOD ONE!!!

The Housing Market Is Not Returning to 2020 – “Fannie Mae has sharply raised its mortgage rate forecast for 2027, and the revision should put an end to the fantasy that Americans can simply wait another year for cheap money to return. Economists now expect the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate to reach 7.4% during the fourth quarter of 2026 and remain around 7.5% throughout 2027. ” – Martin Armstrong

THE BIG PICTURE

We Are One Body In Christ – “We owe it to ourselves for this reason to take care how we speak to each other during any interaction. We cannot lift people up if our words are tearing them down. We cannot bear true witness if our words are false. Sadly, what we see all too often, both in social media and elsewhere, are people spewing angry, hateful, even vile words. What we see all too often are people spreading lies and slanders about each other. What we see all too often are people whose witness is the epitome of false witness, the polar opposite of true witness.” – Peter Nayland Kust

The World Is no Longer Made Up of Independent Nations as Globalization Is Sought – “It should be obvious by now that nations and countries worldwide are working together as one, even as they pretend to be enemies, which indicates that nefarious theatre is alive and present. If this could be known and accepted by large numbers of the sheep-like populace, attitudes would change, and physical defensive action would necessarily be forthcoming, but the near impossibility of convincing the herd of the truth is an enormous impediment to this knowledge becoming more universal.” – Gary D. Barnett

Who Are “the Jews”, According to the Bible? – “The Myth of a “Pure” Jewish Race. Today, many Christians, especially Evangelical Christians, believe in a pure Jewish race whose people are superior to other ethnic races. However, the historical facts prove otherwise. First, by the time Moses arrived on the scene and began the process of leading the Jews out of Egypt to become their own geo-political nation in the “Promised Land” as the nation of “Israel”, the Jews were already a mixed race of mostly Hebrews and Egyptians. The word “Jew” itself is taken from one of the 12 sons of Jacob, who was renamed to “Israel,” and that son was Judah. Judah became one of the “12 tribes of Israel”, and Jesus was born as a descendant of Judah. Therefore Abraham, the patriarch of the Jewish people, was not even Jewish himself, but a Hebrew.” – Brian Shilhavy

The Remarkable Secrets of Olive Oil – “For thousands of years, olive oil was valued as much as a medicine as a food, and modern research has largely confirmed that reputation. Most notably, in large randomized trials, adding extra virgin olive oil to a Mediterranean diet reduced heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and atrial fibrillation.” – A Midwestern Doctor

How Many Ministries of Truth Are There? – “Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: the UK is an Orwellian police state. What’s that? You have heard that one before? OK, how about this one: the UK is actually worse than Orwellian.” –  James Corbett

How Did the West Destroy Tartaria? – “When Old Books Tell Us What the Narrative Doesn’t. When we open a modern atlas, curious mind, the world looks settled, its borders fixed, names agreed on, and our ancient certainties are in place, but open a map from three centuries ago, and a very different geography begins to emerge.” – Jordan Nuttall

NEWS

Looters of the World, Unite! – “The Republic burns as riots spread across Europe.. What began in France as a loosely organized student tantrum, where an entitled generation of loafers spit their pacifiers out of the oppressive confines of their UPPAbaby strollers, quickly morphed into a sweeping, multicultural fête, in which (mostly) left-wing agitators, lunatic Islamists, cosplaying communist radicals and other unlikely bedfellows gathered round to raze France’s fine cities to the ground. You know… kinda like the usual suspects do when their soccer teams lose. Or win. Or draw. Or don’t even play. Here they are, presumably rummaging for school supplies in Louis Vuitton…” – Joel Bowman

The US Empire Has Seceded To The Heritage Foundation Mafia – “IF the purpose espoused by the Heritage Foundation for Trump to spike an illegal War with Iran so as to disrupt countries across the globe – they have succeeded. Cost of Living protests have spread from France to Belgium, Italy and Portugal. While the France protests are a mixture with commentaries claiming the police are purposefully allowing the rampage, the point remains – Europeans and their respective governments are not even remotely on the same page.” – Helena Glass

What Is Happening In France Will Also Happen Here In The United States Too – Michael Snyder

Has France Fallen? Far-Left Rioters Torch Buildings, Loot Luxury Stores As Macron Loses Control – “France’s weeks-long social unrest appears to be intensifying this weekend, with footage circulating on X showing a clear escalation in violence by far-left radicals and a deterioration in public order. The sustained chaos is exposing the limits of President Emmanuel Macron’s rapid response and raising alarming questions about his government’s ability to contain the crisis.” – Tyler Durden

Democratic Socialism Demolished Europe. – “Decades of bloated government, entitlements, subsidies, and mass migration have destroyed Europe’s competitiveness and growth, all paid for with ever-rising taxes and more debt. They have also created enormous social discontent.” – Daniel Lacalle

Rioters loot stores, set fires in central Milan during cost-of-living protest – “The march against wars and rising living costs began peacefully. But masked protesters threw stones, paving blocks and other objects at riot police and set fire to barricades made from bar tables. Images of the aftermath showed a severely damaged carabinieri car.” – AP

The most terrifying image out of France (and it’s not what you think it is) – “Whether the protests are as huge as X makes them seem or as contained as the MSM implies, this one picture warns of the coming conquest. An elderly couple stripped of everything, right in the middle of the street, left half-naked. As if the pillaged Rolexes, Vuitton, Hermès, Dior, Sephora weren’t enough for resale. The image that should be a wake-up call for the entire West. But stripping ordinary people of their clothes…that’s not mob madness. That is, instead, a very calculated act by which those in power ritually humiliate those whom they intend to destroy.” – Andrea Widburg

Tens of thousands march in Lisbon over housing and living costs – “It coincides with protests in France against rising costs and declining public services, and smaller protests in Belgium. There are ⁠also mass protests in Albania, where protesters are demanding the prime minister’s resignation.” – Sergio Goncalves and Miguel Pereira

Army Chief Warns Britons Must Make SACRIFICES For COMING WAR – “Half of the population say they would refuse to fight for the country.

California Should Not Get to Set Policy For All of the U.S. – “California has decided it should dictate how the rest of America packages everything from cereal and soap to industrial spare parts. Seventeen Republican attorneys general have filed suit to stop it. They are right. The rest of the country should say so—and reject California’s attempt to impose its policies on everyone else. California and a handful of like-minded states have a playbook: Pass a rule at home. Make compliance a condition of doing business. Watch national supply chains conform because it is cheaper to surrender than to maintain two systems. Then call the result “progress” and dare anyone to object. That is not federalism. It is the big dog sitting on the porch, growling at every other house on the street.” – Curtis Hill

Every day, millions of ordinary investors buy and sell shares in businesses they know almost nothing about, relying on the assumption that somebody, somewhere, has done the necessary homework.

And of course, history tells us otherwise.” – Quoth the Raven

Portfolio manager Lance Roberts thinks that may continue until the results of the midterm elections deliver certainty.” – Adam Taggart | Thoughtful Money®

Gold & Silver: Ugly Week, Bigger Opportunity? – “let’s look at the markets. Gold fell sharply earlier this week, dropping toward $4,080 an ounce on Wednesday before staging a rebound Thursday. Silver’s losses were considerably more severe. The white metal plunged more than 6% Wednesday, falling to around $55.50 an ounce, before recovering somewhat on Thursday. For investors who watched silver trade above $100 earlier this year, seeing it struggle to hold the upper $50s is a bitter pill to swallow. But that’s silver. When it moves, it rarely does so gently. And the same volatility that makes silver’s advances so spectacular can make its corrections downright painful. The immediate culprit behind this week’s selloff was another round of troubling inflation news.” – Money Metals

The Precious Metals Mania Is Still Ahead – “The naysayers say the precious metals bull market is over, but the lack of a true mania in early 2026 tells a very different story.. Since the precious metals correction began in January 2026, a growing number of investors and commentators have concluded that the January peak marked the final mania and top of the 2020s precious metals bull market, much like the peaks of 1980 and 2011. They believe the bull market is now officially over and that precious metals face at least a decade-long bear market. However, I have been one of the few voices adamantly arguing otherwise: ” – Jesse Colombo  – PARTIAL ARTICLE FROM JESSE, BUT YOU GET THE IDEA!!!

Read something that you don’t like? That’s gotta be Russian disinformation. The “wrong” candidate wins an election? Never would have happened without Russian social media bots!

Unless and until Representative Omar is actually indicted, the public will have to wait to read about the particular facts of her case. It is worth noting, however, that numerous allegations have swirled around the congresswoman for years. Perhaps we will learn whether these allegations have merit in the months ahead. What I do know is that this inquiry is long overdue. The appearance of impropriety has followed Representative Omar even before she joined Congress in 2019. Allegations of immigration fraud have been loud — including the unsavory claim that she married her brother — yet neither congressional leaders nor federal officials have been inclined to investigate the matter more fully until now.” – J.B.

Starlink Fiasco Heats Up as Zelensky Begs for Billions From Politically Pooped Europe – Zelensky wants Starlink privileges up to 300 kilometers deep into Russia in exchange for cessation of strikes against Russian energy assets for up to three months: After hearing Zelensky’s initial argument, why would Trump be convinced to take this latest horse trade? It’s a reflection on the hypocritical and unprincipled double dealing political games that Zelensky now relies on as leverage to save himself from the fire. What’s revealing is how Western media accomplices attempt to play the same sleezy game in a bid to save their chosen globalist puppet. Nervous EU leaders have picked up on Zelensky’s latest rashness and have urged him to pipe down before Trump does something truly game-changing to Ukraine:” – Simplicius

Iran, a coiled cobra ready to strike – “Let’s get right into the heart of the matter: carefully examining the chessboard, the political and military leadership in Tehran has already reached the conclusion that a joint U.S.-Israeli attack, with planning advancing at a feverish pace, is inevitable. So they are now positioned themselves as a coiled cobra, ready to strike and inject deadly venom at the first whiff of an imminent Epstein Syndicate threat – even without waiting for an actual attack. The preemption drive, already delineated, will be devastating, extending beyond U.S. bases in West Asia to other regional targets, and potentially including Gulf energy infrastructure and undersea cables (in this case mostly affecting the Gulf and India, much more than the U.S. and Europe). We are into clear and present danger territory: a U.S.-Israeli military movement intended as pressure certainly will be interpreted in Tehran as the opening of an attack.” – Pepe Escobar

The U.S. empire wants the public not to know about it until this Russian province, which is a blank space on most maps of Europe, becomes conquered by NATO — which has a plan for this purpose (to grab Kaliningrad for the U.S.).” – Eric Zuesse

Two Decades Of Mass Financial Delusion Ends Now – “The financial excess is staggering. The psychological fallout from unwinding it could be even worse. Friday’s selloff was not a surprise. Between deteriorating credit markets, rising Treasury yields, increasingly absurd artificial intelligence valuations, enormous amounts of leverage and an entire financial system that has spent the better part of two decades mainlining cheap money like a frat guy guzzling Jaegermeister at the bottom of an ice luge, the warning signs have been flashing for quite some time.” – Quoth the Raven

Bessent, Shelton, China, Gold & Inflation– (VIDEO) with Bill Holter – “President Trump said the quiet part out loud when he said earlier this month, ‘Certain levels of inflation will also pay off that debt very rapidly. Very rapidly.’ The whole idea is if you create inflation, you are cheapening the currency. If you create enough inflation, you can cheapen the currency to what I call ‘monkey money.’ You can turn the currency into monkey money, and it makes debt very easy to pay off. I think that’s what the strategy is. China just purchased more gold in September than any prior month. I think they are on 63 or 68 straight months of purchasing gold. They are liquidating Treasuries and using that capital to buy gold.” – Greg Hunter  – BILL IS ALWAYS INTERESTING!!!!!!!!!

Oil Is $136 on the Ground. Why Does Wall Street Say $95? (VIDEO) – “North Sea oil trades at spot for $136 a barrel. The futures market has it in the $90s. Doug points out that the distillates from a $100 barrel now add up to about $200, “and that’s what really counts.” To me that gap says something serious is changing. We’re in a Fourth Turning, people are losing faith in institutions, and markets are an institution too.” – Matt Smith and Doug Casey

The bill is part of an ongoing effort by the Sheinbaum government and the Morena party to expand the digitization of Mexico’s economy.

What Comes After the Blue Douching? – “Unless the polls are entirely wrong – and unless the situation with regard to gas/diesel prices changes dramatically in a favorable direction very soon – it seems as certain as the fall transitioning to winter that the blues are going to hose the reds in the midterms. The question arises: What will come the day after, assuming a blue hosing out of the reds? Well, nothing – at first – because it won’t be until January that the resurgent blues get their hands on the power they crave. In the meanwhile, we can expect Trump to go full shambolic – because he knows that come January, he will no longer have the congressional buffer he has enjoyed up to now.” – Eric Peters

Hitler’s Hubris Is Trump’s Hubris – “I want to dig into how Trump’s political misadventures translate into the US economy—and root out a commonality in the hubris of Trump and Hitler. The result of a Blue Wave will amount to more harassment of Trump via committee investigations/resolutions. Ultimately pointless. State and local elections in November are something else. They matter. Stocking up on silver, gold and lead.’ I agree with the stocking-up on gold and silver. Are we at a price bottom today? It doesn’t matter. What are you going to do, sell your gold for dollars? Then what? The reasons we got into gold and silver are more intact than ever. But what about silver down from $120 to almost $50? Should we buy into that? Maybe we’d rather buy into Trump’s coming dollar collapse?” – Erik@neverhadaboss.com

Things Have Changed – “I remind you once again: history is a trickster. Sometimes things turn out, and sometimes they just turn, and these days they’re turning hard. Get this: Russia is not our mortal enemy anymore. No more sacrificing everyone’s happiness to prove Karl Marx’s cockamamie theories. No more trying to foist all that on the rest of the world. Russia gave up on that project and opted to become a normal nation, with the full kit of normality: commerce, shopping, banks, enterprise. Things have changed. Things have gotten strange, too.Europe has become something of adversary, if not exactly our enemy, yet. Europe has lost its mind. Now, it is Europe’s turn to destroy itself in pursuit of idiotic theories — such as: nations don’t matter. . . you can have a high standard of living without productive industry. . . carbon is destroying the world.” – James Howard Kunstler

Why Trump Nixed Execution Livestream – “The news media is framing Trump’s decision to cancel the livestream of Nidal Hasan’s execution as a Washington story of pure palace intrigue — Trump versus Hegseth. First, the decision was never Hegseth’s to make; Trump’s reversal is the result of people power, with an overwhelming majority of Americans — including his own supporters — opposed to the grotesque spectacle worthy of ancient Rome. Yet instead of a story about ordinary Americans standing up to the most powerful leader on earth and winning, headline after headline frames it as a Washington drama, Consciously or not, they turn what is basically a story about people power into just another Trump fuck-up.” – Ken Klippenstein

Trump the Traitor – “Trump turns on Ukraine and President Z. just to take blame off himself during election season as he represents himself as having godlike chosen status as savior of the world who will never abandon us.” – David Haggith

Trump Brags: ‘I Could Say The Stupidest Things And You’d Clap.’ Refers To The Death Of His Own Supporters As ‘Collateral Damage’ – ““If that person right over there, he looks like s*** actually. He looks like he’s ready to have a heart attack. If he did, my doctors would leave him alone.” MAGA, whatever is left of it, just can’t seem to get it that Trump could absolutely care less about them, and thinks his own support base are the dumbest, most willfully ignorant people around.” – The WinePress

Washington Wants You Using Trump Coins to Annoy the Left – “People say that POTUS is a raging narcissist for slapping his name or face onto anything that stands still long enough. And clearly there’s at least a little ego involved in the need to embroider everything from passports and perfume to savings bonds and Bibles with the DJT monogram. But more and more, I’m convinced that’s just how the man trolls. Take the brand new Trump dollar coin.

Another Mass Shooter Stopped By Armed Citizen In Oregon – “Three children and one adult are dead following an active shooter situation at Silver Rail Elementary in Bend, Oregon on Thursday afternoon. The suspected active shooter is also dead after an armed civilian chased the shooter into the school and killed him. The shooter was reportedly a 16-year-old boy, though no details on identity or motive have been releases yet. While the identity of the shooter is still under wraps, commenters are already suggesting that the attack might be yet another case of a transgender lunatic on a rampage. It should be noted that the state of Oregon has one of the highest rates of teens and children undergoing transgender treatments in the US. Around 20% of US counties account for 90% of all homicides in the country. Of these counties, the vast majority are controlled by Democrats. In other words, the counties with the most aggressive gun control advocates and laws in the US are also the places with the most gun violence. ” – Tyler Durden

The Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar is the largest in the Middle East. Built in 1996, it served as an assurance and insurance against enemies. In return for Qatar’s largess investments in the US, the base kept Qatar safe. Until it didn’t. Instead, Al Udeid made Qatar a target, and that targeting has liquified their source of revenue, Oil & LNG.17% of Qatar’s LNG capacity has been obliterated.

September PPI: Inflation Will Keep Rising – “Oilpocalypse Contagion Confirms We Are Heading Towards The Worst Case Scenario” – Peter Nayland Kust

The Donald’s Great Big Not Very Beautiful FAFO – “When it rains inflation, it apparently pours it, too. The September PPI came in this AM and it was sporting a whopping 15.6% annualized increase in the PPI. Yes, that was allegedly due to more mullah-madness from the Persian Gulf, driving oil and gas pump prices sky-high. And, if you like, it’s all because the Iranians are obstinate in a manner apparently similar to the German tribes of the black forests in 180 AD. In the opening scene of Gladiator the Roman centurion Quintus thus memorably observed, “A people should know when they are conquered”. Apparently, however, the Iranians don’t know, either.” – David Stockman

No one at the bureau appeared to know why their boss had traveled to Moscow or what he was doing there. At least that was what MS NOW reported breathlessly as “breaking news.” The only problem with this cutting-edge investigative journalism is that Patel, at the time, was attending a law enforcement appreciation event at Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA.” – Graham Noble

Will Bill and Hillary Clinton Please Just Go Away? – “Ever notice how some old political operators, no matter how good they may have been in their heyday, prompt no reaction any more other than “Oh, for the luvva Peta, you again?” History is replete with examples of retired or disgraced politicians wearing out their welcomes and then hanging around anyway, and never has that been more true than for two people who are supposedly retired and who are definitely disgraced: Bill and Hillary Clinton.” – Ward Clark

Argentina’s economic demolition: Javier Milei disappears 11 TONS of gold (VIDEO) – “Despite being one of Donald Trump’s biggest political investments in Latin America, or perhaps because of it, Argentine President Javier Milei is presiding over a deepening recession. His country’s industrial base is crumbling, the middle class is shrinking, and factories keep closing. Yet Milei’s grip on power has only tightened with the help of powerful patrons in Washington and Tel Aviv. Now, a new scandal has erupted which raises troubling questions about the fate of the nation’s wealth. On October 8, National Audit Office president Juan Manuel Olmos confirmed that Argentina’s Central Bank lost $1.023 billion in gold reserves through operations that moved physical gold out of the country without the public’s consent.” – The Grayzone

Ukraine abandons truce and attacks Russian oil refinery as Zelenskyy says he feels betrayed by Trump – “Despite going along with Trump’s demand for a truce, Zelenskyy complained, Ukraine in recent days was denied the usual Western intelligence on Russian ballistic missile strikes, and limits were placed on its use of U.S.-made Starlink communication terminals. Both are vital for the Ukrainian military. He said his patience had run out, telling the Financial Times in an interview published Thursday that Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil refineries would resume. “We’re done,” Zelenskyy was quoted as saying.” – Susie Blann

Russian Gold Is Flowing Through Hong Kong – “Hong Kong has taken several steps to elevate its status as a global gold hub this year, including the launch of a gold clearing and settlement system that mirrors the London Bullion Market Association. But to be a gold hub, you need a lot of gold. Hong Kong is getting plenty of the metal from Russia. Hong Kong has become a conduit for Russian gold as sanctions have cut off Russia’s access to Western financial markets. Russia’s recent selling reveals just why central banks hold gold. It serves as a long-term reserve free from counterparty risk. And because its value is recognized globally, it can serve as an emergency fund – even if you’ve been locked out of the global dollar-dominated financial system.” – Mike Maharrey

The Fed vs. the Bond Market – “The economy is bound to eventually reach a point where it can no longer tolerate the interest rates required to keep inflation and debt under control, and some of the loudest warnings are coming from the bond market. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield recently climbed above 5.3%, reaching levels not seen since 2002.

In order for rulers to rule, in order for the few to control the many, society as a whole must be made to feel subordinate to selected ‘leaders’ and experts as defined by those same so-called ‘leaders’ and experts; which includes the governing system of technocratic authoritarians posing as ‘gods’ among men.” – Gary D.

Omar has said she derived citizenship through her father, Nur Omar Mohamed, when he naturalized in 2000, and the law then required the child to be under 18 when the parent naturalized. Born in 1981, she’d have been an adult all of 2000 – the year she says she became a citizen at 17,” – Tyler Durden

What is Greta up to at the French school riots? – “The pint-sized professional protester has become the patron saint of the omnicause. The ‘omnicause’ is often loosely defined as the animating spirit of woke activism. It is ‘Free Palestine’, the ‘climate emergency’, ‘trans rights’ and Black Lives Matter rolled into a single, unified moral crusade. If it has a face, then it’s surely that of the perennial protester Greta Thunberg, who has now lent her star power to the student rioters in France.” – Hugo Timms

This is all being driven by political posturing, because the EU is collapsing and they need an external enemy, and Russia is the best enemy money can buy.

The EU-NATO Establishment Is Waging A Hybrid War Against Europe – “The (fake) elite which currently leads in many European countries as well as the European Union in Brussels is determined to wage a war against Russia. Unfortunately for them the people they rule over have no interest in that. The leaders are waging a massive propaganda campaign to change their minds. They are following a line set by Hillary Clinton who, after losing the 2016 presidential election to Donald Trump, blamed Russia for interfering with it. Accusations against Russia of interfering with elections elsewhere have since been repeated many times. The claim of ‘Russian bots’ waging ‘Russian influence’ is trotted out whenever populist outsiders manage to win.” – Moon of Alabama

Is There Any Way To Save Social Security, Or Is It Doomed? – “The young do not think about getting old, and this is to the greatest benefit of governments which spend and inflate younger generations out of any future subsidies they might one day come to rely on. For most people in Gen Z, though, there is at least a tacit acknowledgment that they are paying into a system that might not be there for them when they retire. However, their only point of reference is usually the rantings of their socialist college professors or a mob of crazed activists on TikTok. So, naturally, the only solution they can come up with is MORE power for government, more taxation, more communism and more redistribution of wealth. In other words, give more control and more cash over to the state which already misspent their money.” – Brandon Smith

He is out on the street every single day, and he has now conducted over 10,000 interviews with homeless individuals across North America, and what he is hearing directly from people living on the street is often completely different from what policymakers and advocates are telling the public. One of the biggest things Kevin pointed out, and the thing that really stuck with me, is that there is almost no actual outreach happening. Nobody is out there talking to people on the street, finding out what they actually need, building relationships with them, until there is a medical crisis and EMS has to show up.” – Karla Treadway

The figure of six million murdered Jews in the so-called Holocaust began as a Talmudic concept, dear reader, a religious metaphor for catastrophe, circulated for centuries without any factual basis.

Historians now acknowledge this figure was symbolic from the start, yet it still remains enforced as a fact.” – Jordan Nuttall

Did she threaten him? No. He simply needed to justify his actions and extinguish his own fault. This is America. This is Israel. This is Zionist Christianity.

It’s Worse Than Just the Stupid Party – “I have always had an ambivalent relationship with “conservatives,” because I could never divine their principles. They want to “conserve” . . . what, exactly? Their congressional majority? Why? What for? How does that benefit me? The GOP has the principles of a small-time check kiter or used car salesman looking to make a quick score off a gullible mark. It can never win, much less accomplish anything meaningful (insofar as rolling back the tide of government) because that would be contrary to its interests, That is why the GOP is now a dead man walking, personified by the zig-zagging gait and leaning-forward penguin stance of the puffy-faced, swollen-ankled old man who is currently its podium-clutching, teeth-grinding front man.

The Bucks Stop Here – “Being the president is lucrative. Truman left office on a small Army pension and turned down corporate offers. He said he could never “lend myself to any transaction, however respectable,” that would commercialize the prestige and dignity of the presidency. Compare that to more modern presidents. Fortune put the Obamas’ net worth at $12.2 million when they left the White House. That’s pretty good for a community organizer, right? Most low-level law lecturers don’t earn that many bucks. Forbes put Obama near $70 million in 2024. Joe Biden spent thirty-six years in the Senate and eight as vice president on public salaries. He never created any new wealth. In the two years after leaving that office, he and his wife Jill reported $15.6 million in income. Donald Trump wins this contest hands down, as he usually does.

Globalists speak of “multiculturalism” as if it were a virtue and equate Western civilization with “white supremacy,” “patriarchy,” and “imperialism.” They believe Christians should celebrate Islamic holidays. They believe national borders are “racist.” They believe that anybody who rejects globalism promotes “hate.” If everything is true, though, then nothing is true. If there are no borders, then there are no nations. If there are no nations, then national governments represent nobody. In other words, the globalist worldview is meaningless, contradictory, self-hating, and infuriating.” – J.B. Shurk

Oct. 7 Forever Marks The Big Reveal: ‘We See You, Israel, We Revile You, We Reject You!’ – “What Israel has done, is doing, to Gaza has not sprung ex nihilo from October 7. Genocide is not a situational counter-response to aggression. It’s a coming-out event of sorts. Differently put: There are no legitimate antecedents to genocide. Genocide is not a “war crime” to which a set of mitigating or exculpating legal defenses can attach. Genocide is a stand-alone indefensible crime—“the blackest of all crimes”—for which there are no extenuating circumstances and to which no traditional legal defenses attach.” – Ilana Mercer

Specifically, it’s the country this administration has spent years calling the greatest existential threat America faces. Popular Information emailed the White House with detailed questions. Was she ever admitted to any bar, in any state, ever? The response, in full: “Refer you to the President’s TRUTH on Katie.” LMFAO. That’s the answer. A direct question about a professional license, answered with a link to a social media post where the President says she’s an attorney. Can’t make it up.

Their virtual protest signs read “Keep your billions out of our ballots!” Unless, you know, the billionaires are throwing serious cash at progressive candidates in a uniquely consequential midterm election.” – Jenna McCarthy

In a post from Belgian political activist Dries Van Langenhove, he writes about the video: “European people can’t comprehend this because we’re simply not the same. They destroy. It’s what they do.

India Considering Digital Gold Regulations Including 1-to-1 Gold Backing – “The fact that this isn’t already a requirement should give you pause. With digital gold products, investors can buy and sell ownership of physical metal electronically. The digital gold provider stores physical gold in a vault on the owner’s behalf. You technically own the gold, but you don’t physically possess it. Digital gold allows quick transfers between accounts and facilitates fractional gold purchases. Some digital products allow investors to take physical possession of gold under certain circumstances. Others do not.  The downside is you don’t have physical possession of the metal, and there’s no guarantee the provider has all the gold either.” – Mike Maharrey

France Is Discovering That Creditors Have a Choice – “The politicians assume that because France has always been treated as a major European power, its debt will always receive favorable treatment.

Now investors accept less interest to hold its debt than France’s.” – Martin Armstrong

Universal Healthcare in US Overruled By Big Pharma – “TED CRUZ is on the media interview path to implant his great wealth of knowledge as an attorney. Today, he was mocking blue states for not implementing universal healthcare unilaterally. Apparently, he is wholly unaware of the pitfalls: Of course, the original source of the Big Pharma protocol came from the Rockefeller Institute in 1911 wherein any doctor practicing natural therapies was widely demonized as a “QUACK”. And anyone ‘stupid enough’ to forego the Rockefeller subsequent plagues, pandemics and epidemics – was illiterate. Today, the US is the world’s largest user of Big Pharma.

IDF Congressman Introduces Legislation to Strip Americans of Passports for Criticizing Israel – “Reminiscent of travel restrictions in the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, and apartheid South Africa. In the United States, following 9/11 and the so-called global war on terror, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced all domestic air travel would require either a traditional passport or a federally compliant ID card, known as “Real ID.” In essence, this imposed an internal passport system on American citizens. Former IDF “volunteer” Brian Mast’s resolution will extend travel restrictions to critics of Israel. Mast has called for “kicking terrorist sympathizers out of our country.” I was not able to find evidence that Rubio and the State Department will revoke the citizenship of Americans for criticizing Zionist genocide of Palestinians. However, revoking the right to travel by denying a passport for expressing a political opinion is not much different from what the Soviet Union did during the Cold War.” – Kurt Nimmo.

Russia, Satan, and the Parviscient Crowd – “Ten years ago I had lunch with a man who vehemently insisted that Vladimir Putin was the satanic leader of an evil country and Hilary Clinton was a great American who should be President. This was two years after the U.S. government under Barack Obama, Joseph Biden, Victoria Nuland, and the CIA had engineered a coup d’état in Ukraine as part of their proxy war against Russia, bringing Ukraine’s neo-Nazis into greater power. For years the U.S. had supported Ukraine’s killing of the Russian speaking peoples of eastern Ukraine, and finally, when Ukraine had amassed forces to invade the Donbas region, the Russian government had had enough and in February 2022 sent troops into the region to defend this area. Thus the hypocritical West played at outrage that what they had created was finally backfiring. Russia was cast as the guilty party for invading Ukraine. For many years, U.S./ NATO has moved military forces and bases into countries encircling Russia.” – Edward Curtin

Trump’s Tax Cuts Have Walked The USA Into Debt Trap – “The US economy looks rosy – if you are looking at the fantabulous promises of the Stock Market. The reality is very different. The scale of the $40 trillion National Debt is a problem that will not just go away and puts substantial limits on how the US can respond to any new economic or conflict crisis without risking massive inflation. Underlying the scale of the debt is not just poor spending decisions, but tax cuts that have accelerated the debt crisis.” – Bill Blain

War Against Yemen Endangers Saudi Crown Prince’s Position – “In the 1930s, during the formation of Saudi Arabia, three provinces were taken from Yemen. The Yemeni have always wanted them back. They are now in a position where they may eventually achieve that aim. In recent decades the Saudis had sent Wahhabi preacher into Yemen. This led to conflicts with the Zaidi Shia natives and in 2014 resulted in a revolution against the government of Ali Abdullah Saleh which had allowed the Saudis to gain an ideological foothold. The Houthi, a family clan or tribe of Zaidi Shia with a long tradition, allied with other clans and managed to overthrow the government in Sanaa. Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the then 29 year old Minister Defense of Saudi Arabia, started a war against the Houthi and their allies to restore the Yemeni government.  It was all to no avail. In 2022 a ceasefire was established along the conflict lines. Under the name Ansar Allah (Ansarullah) the Houthis and their local allies established themselves as the government over some 70% of the Yemeni population.” – Moon of Alabama  – WHEN FOLLOWING MANY OF THE WORLD’S CONFLICTS IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHO DID WHAT TO WHOM AND NOT JUST BELIEVE THE PROPAGANDA!!!

And no, I’m not talking about the heat we had this summer. I mean literally burning. Parts of it, anyway. What started in the middle of September with a teachers’ strike and a protest over conditions at a school outside Paris has since devolved into something else entirely: second-generation immigrants waving foreign flags, alongside far-left outfits, working their way methodically through every flammable object in the republic. Buses. School buildings. Street furniture. At a certain point they ran out of things to burn and started on the trees. Throughout all of it, the mainstream press has stuck to its guns, almost admirably, and continues to file this under “protests over conditions in schools.” – Lau Vegys

Thou Shalt Not Kill – “A Commandment with So Many Exceptions. Archbishop Paul S. Coakley, the president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, called the planned livestream “a barbaric promotion of a culture of death” and warned it would harm the country. A culture of death, indeed. The United States leads the world in mass shootings, weapons exports (“the merchants of death”), and threats of annihilation” -Bill Astore

Justified, Saved, Redeemed By Faith – “Is faith in God, faith in Jesus, really all that is needed? In passage after passage, Paul teaches plainly that it is only by our faith that God declares us to be righteous. It is only by faith that we are justified. We are justified by our faith. We are saved by our faith. We are redeemed by our faith.” – Peter Nayland Kust

What is The Greater-Israel Plan? – “When Land Is Taken in the Name of Heritage. What looks like a war between two nations can reveal itself as something far larger: a blueprint being drawn before our eyes One that maps a model of society onto a new territory, under the cover of crisis. Four years ago, in the early months of 2022, a striking statement was made that few paused to fully understand. Today, with the benefit of hindsight and what has unfolded across these past years, that statement no longer sounds like just another remark in a press conference, it reads like the beginning of a plan; one that connects two seemingly distant conflicts under a single, carefully designed vision. What we are witnessing is not just a war; it is the deliberate construction of a permanent security state, exported and presented as the only viable path forward.” – Jordan Nuttall

The Fraud That Launched the mRNA Era – “Before COVID, mRNA had failed for decades and both companies developing it were in financial trouble. However, an emergency framework built years in advance made it possible to rush their vaccines to market. Now there is a major push to replace much of the vaccine schedule with lucrative mRNA vaccines, despite the platform being immensely problematic and still poorly understood.” – A Midwestern Doctor

Quick Take…Masks (Still) Don’t Work – “It’s just programming. Ignore it.” – Kit Knightly

How Bill Gates’ Billions Shape US Medical Research – “The cache of several dozen emails and documents, made public for the first time by an NIH whistleblower, reinforces previous reports detailing Gates’s extensive influence over U.S. biomedical research. During the height of the COVID pandemic, Kate Elder, a senior vaccines policy adviser for Doctors Without Borders, complained to Politico, “What makes Bill Gates qualified to be giving advice and advising the U.S. government on where they should be putting the tremendous resources?”” – Paul D. Thacker

TRUMP’S “SUPER INTELLIGENCE” | Bloodlines, Reptilians & LAST Days Are Here! (VIDEO) – “As world leaders and technology giants race toward increasingly powerful AI, humanity is beginning to use words once reserved for God: superintelligence, omniscience, creation, immortality and godlike intelligence. But Scripture presents another story. Could humanity eventually create an intelligence it begins to worship? Could the ancient deception of Genesis return in a technological form?” – Nephtali1981

AI Is Reading Your Private Files and Calling the Cops – “Big Tech and the cops found a way around the Fourth Amendment and they expect you to pay for it. Now add up the bill. You pay for the phone and the computer and the monthly subscription and the cloud storage where your whole life sits. The company gets paid again when it sells what it learned about you to a broker. Then the FBI buys you back from that broker with your own tax dollars. You’re paying for the camera and the wiring and the recording service and the salary of the guy watching the tape. They actually expect us to foot the bill for our own surveillance. ” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

What Will You Do? – “The coming midterms are not consequential because there’s any real choice. That does not, however, mean they aren’t consequential. As we get inexorably closer, Trump is likely to do something drastic – not because it would make any difference to us, the goyim, whether the blues douche the reds – but because it would make a difference to him. A blue douching would be seen as a personal as well as political repudiation. A pathological narcissist such as Trump can’t stand the idea of either. There is probably nothing more important to Trump – other than money – than not being perceived as a “loser” and “weak.” A blue douching would embarrass him and that would be dangerous for us” – Eric Peters

Trump Strong-Arms Zelensky – “I was told that President Donald Trump was going to “strong-arm” Zelensky into a ceasefire regarding energy. Trump has made more than 6 calls to this lowlife about attacking Russian energy and he refused to comply. Many rational people are starting to realize that the problem is Ukraine and their pervasive hatred of the Russian people that has been as toxic and Iran vs Israel. All my sources in Ukraine argued Zelensky was never elected and that was all rigged. I was also told back then that this was the guy hand-picked by the Neocons to start World War III.” – Martin Armstrong

President Donald Trump announced a $6.6 billion investment with AI defense company Anduril Industries on Tuesday — the most recent government funding agreement into a company with investment ties to the president’s sons. The Trump administration announced the Navy will support $2.9 billion of the total cost to help create a new facility in Baltimore County, Maryland, that will manufacture critical parts for the Virginia-class nuclear-powered fast-attack submarine. 1789 Capital — a venture capital firm that lists Donald Trump Jr. as one of six partners along with three founders — claimed a major stake in Anduril in June 2025 from a $2.5 billion investment into the company. ” – ABC News Radio  – THE DON MAKES HIS SON A LITTLE RICHER!!!!

Debunking Myths Of October 7th And The Zionist War Against Palestine – “This October 7th we will be bombarded with propaganda asserting Israeli righteousness amid three years of ongoing genocide in Gaza, so let’s set the record straight. Today, and every day going forward, as sympathizers of Zionist settler-colonialism and genocide apologists continue to attempt to distort reality into a narrative that seeks to dignify this repugnant atrocity, we must not shy away from standing firm in the facts and confronting their lies with the truth.

Who Thought This Was OK? – “City-Backed Festival Let a Man STRIP for Cash in Front of CHILDREN. A small city in upstate New York sponsored a “family friendly” arts festival, then stood by while grown men stripped down and took cash tips a few feet from toddlers. Rather than issuing an apology, the Democratic mayor issued a lecture on free speech.” – Steve Watson

The Staggering Attack on Oil Refineries (VIDEO) – “The number of oil refineries worldwide that have been attacked or otherwise disrupted since February 2026 is truly staggering and unprecedented.

Rift Turns to Fracture: Ukrainian Delegation Beats Town After Don’s Diesel Decree . Disaster has struck the Ukrainian-American relationship at a moment meant to be a turning point in peace efforts to end the war. Just as a delegation sent by Zelensky touched down in Miami for a private sit-down with Trump capos Kushner and Witkoff, the godfather himself made a stunning pronouncement: the ban on Russian diesel is to be lifted. And the reason left Zelensky grinding his gold-capped molars: The Ukrainian head’s refusal to obey the Don’s demands to halt strikes on Russian oil sites, at least according to Axios:” – Simplicius

Europe’s Diesel Shortage Is a Problem Created by Political Design – “The diesel agreement between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin will not solve the diesel shortage, considering the magnitude of the problem created by years of misguided wrongly called “environmental policies”. Complaining about diesel prices and the US-Russia deal while eliminating domestic refining capacity and bombing refineries is just another example of bureaucratic hypocrisy.” – Daniel Lacalle

Why Nobody is Buying the 3% Inflation Story – Peter Reagan

How Government Intervention Destroys Markets and Mandates Scarcity – “The systematic erosion of purchasing power over the last few decades has coincided directly with a devastating decline in living standards for middle-class wage earners and prudent savers alike. You can visibly see it in most cities across America. Areas that a generation ago were nice, clean neighborhoods are now blighted and decayed. Those with the means to do so moved on long ago. Those who remain are left with the ugliness. But that’s not all. As we recently noted, when central planners intentionally debase a currency, they don’t just erode hard-earned savings; they tear apart the very moral fabric of society.” – MN Gordon

Seattle is now price fixing your groceries – “This week the Seattle City Council passed Mayor Katie Wilson’s “Fair Pricing and Transparency” ordinance in a 7-2 vote, a first-in-the-nation ban on so-called surveillance pricing. Government should not be price-fixing consumer products. Banning the use of loyalty cards and programs, fuel rewards, and targeted coupons hurts businesses and consumers alike. Price controls do not make groceries cheaper. They flatten the tools stores use to compete for customers. When discounts vanish, the shelf price becomes the only price. That is how an “affordability” law raises a customer’s grocery bill. ” – Mark Harmsworth

Cajun moon
Where does your power lie
As you move
Across the southern sky
You took my babe
Way too soon
What have you done
Cajun moon

Someday babe
When you want your man
And you find him gone
Just like the wind
Don’t trouble your mind
Whatever you do
‘Cause Cajun moon
Took him from you

Cajun moon
Where does your power lie
As you move
Across the southern sky
You took my babe
Way too soon
What have you done
Cajun moon

When daylight fades
The night comes on
You can hear the silence
Of this song
Don’t trouble your mind
Whatever you do
‘Cause he got me
Like he got you

Cajun moon
Where does your power lie
As you move
Across the southern sky
You took my babe
Way too soon
What have you done

THE BIG PICTURE

ONLY ONE BOX LEFT – “When I started writing in 2008, I was still naïve enough to believe we could bring about positive changes in this country through the ballot box. I had an awakening in 2004 when I realized the neo-cons working their puppet Bush had lied us into the Iraq War. I continued to believe we could get Ron Paul elected in 2012 to reverse the tragic course Bush and Obama had steered the nation towards. The citizens of this country have rights, while our elected representatives have duties to uphold those rights. The Four Boxes of Liberty are as follows: The Soapbox: The Ballot Box: The Jury Box: The Cartridge Box: When the first three Boxes of Liberty have been purposely rendered corrupt and obsolete by our satanic pedophile ruling class, we are only left with one box – the Cartridge (ammo) Box. ” – Jim Quinn

Just Shy of $7 – “My sister and her family live just outside San Diego, CA in a town called Oceanside. Yesterday, she sent me the picture that accompanies this article – about what gas costs where she lives, which is $6.79 per gallon for regular. This makes me almost grateful I only had to pay $4.30 per gallon here in SW Virginia the other day. Either way, this is killing us and probably you, too. Ordinary people can’t take much more of this. My sister is one of them. She hasn’t got the cushion to cover $500/month in gas bills. How many do? A way to gauge how many is to observe how many blue signs are posted vs. red ones, ahead of the midterms. Even in my very red rural SW Virginia county, I see almost no red signs – but lots of blue ones. A funereal silence has descended in anticipation of the death that seems as imminent as the passing of a bed-ridden Stage 5 cancer patient.” – Eric Peters

Are YOU ready for “American Covid”? – “The cold season is here, which means people getting sniffles, which means those few deluded people still living in 2020 are running out to test themselves for Covid the moment they – or, indeed, someone they happen to know – sneezes. This means Covid cases are SURGING… …from 0.5 in 100000 to 2 in 100000. Most of these “cases” are due to the latest scary variant XFG – or “American Covid”. I have no idea why they’ve called it that (maybe it’s some kind of othering propaganda, the same way the French call syphilis “the English disease”, while the English call it “the French disease”). The symptoms of this new variant are the same as the old variant – ALL the old variants. Headaches, coughs, nausea, aches…you know the drill.” – Kit Knightly

The 6 Million Lie – “When the Power of Repetition Causes the Death of Truth. ⚠️ Important note: The perspectives presented in this article are highly controversial. There are phrases we hear so often, dear reader, from pulpits and platforms, so commonplace that we can go years without ever pausing to ask where they truly came from. What follows is a perspective that is rarely heard in the mainstream, not because it is false, but because it raises questions without easy answers. Right now, from every side we hear the same refrain: “The Holy Land, Israel!” “Holy Israel!” It is spoken in synagogues, in Christian churches, and shared among political speeches everywhere, yet if we look closely at the texts themselves, a very different picture begins to emerge.” – Jordan Nuttall  – ANOTHER INTERESTING READ FROM JORDAN!!!

The Karentopia recedes and normalcy returns – “A Colorado dad who climbed El Capitan with his 7-year-old son got reported to child protective services. His parenting was described as unsafe. So what kind of person would complain about this? Note that El Cap is in California.

Dear Leader today made a grand proclamation for all who live in his great land: “The White House considers anyone that uses the term, ‘Artificial Intelligence,’ as opposed to the highly accepted new and more accurate term, ‘Super Intelligence,’ THE ENEMY!” It’s easy to scratch this up as another episode of the ego-tripping fever dream we call American politics. And to him, perhaps it is his way to mark his scent on something that is taking the world by storm. However, as usual let’s read between (and behind) the lines. Even if he has no master motive behind the renaming, someone advising him does.” – Sarah Connor

Ideologues to the Left of Me—Ideologues to the Right – “In the EU, there’s migrant riots across France.  A close friend now sees an Islamic world domination mission—as our biggest problem. While it is true that millions of Muslims, with no desire to integrate into Western values, have overrun Europe, it’s not because of a world domination mission, but because US/NATO/Israeli foreign policy turned their nations into shit-hole/death camps, leaving them no option but to migrate. Muslims are now a huge problem for the EU—with potential to destroy the EU. My friend doesn’t understand that it’s not Muslims that are the problem—not vetting immigrants is the problem. Whether it be Africans, Muslims, or Central Americans, the problem is non-vetted—open borders. Instead of condemning Palestinians, Mexicans, or whomever, my friend needs to focus on the foreign policies of NATO, the US and Israel. Failing to do that renders one incapable of connecting the dots” – Erik@neverhadaboss.com

Her Australia home is in one of the whitest areas of Sydney.” – Paul Joseph Watson  – GOOD ONE FROM PJW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When Will This White House Madness End? – “The United States competes with Israel for the “Most Hated” Distinction. It was another horrific week in Washington with President Donald Trump actually succeeding in coming out with an apparently improvised comment that equaled or maybe even exceeded his ghastly performance at the United Nations where he speculated over whether he should “annihilate” Iran and drive it back into the Stone Age. It would seem that ninety plus million dead Persians would satisfy Donald’s blood lust when it comes to killing innocent civilians, but the latest musing by our beloved leader had him addressing a campaign rally in Nebraska, where he appeared to be declaring that he might well consider wanting to continue the war against Iran” – Philip Giraldi

Relax! Trump Says Oil Will “Drop Like a Rock” – “Numerous oil tankers at sea are being hit, and not just in the PG. The Black Sea cauldron is burning oil and coming under attack. Saudi Arabia can’t get its oil out via land or sea, thanks to two wars and several bad choices. Even the Port of Haijaira, a saving grace of a very odd set of UAE borders, is under the gun and vulnerable. Trump publicly complains about Zelensky’s targeting “choices” – and blames Zelensky for global diesel shortages – even as everyone involved is fully aware that Washington DC controls those decisions, and facilitates their execution. Donald Trump – doomed to failure – wants to make sure the whole world never forgets why they need us. Controlling energy prices – and moving them upward to save the imperial currency, and position it well for a reset that is profitable for the ruling classes – is fundamental. ” – Karen Kwiatkowski

NATO – A Globalized Military Network – “NATO is the extended arm of the European Union (EU); it is the militarization of the EU bloc. North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is the military protection for globalization. NATO intends to conceal its true mission, of connecting all at least Western countries, plus the Five Eyes (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, UK and USA), plus Japan, through a common military strategy and common military equipment. May it be called a clandestine ”military compact”? We are talking about 32 NATO members, plus Australia, New Zealand and Japan, which will give NATO immediate presence in the Pacific. Similarly in Latin America, within the last two years or so, the Monroe/Donroe Doctrine has, without much fanfare, taken hold with new forms and norms. Socialist or left-leaning governments were gradually replaced by strongly conservative, Washington indoctrinated – Trump-tainted – governments. Roughly between 2024 and 2026, a clear rightward shift has taken place across much of Latin America, with several countries newly adopting right or far‑right governments.” – Peter Koenig
