T HE BIG PICTURE
Scripture Alone Is Sufficient – “On social media and throughout regular media, we see “influencers” and all manner of media celebrities telling people not just what they should do but how they should think, and what opinions they should hold. Our culture is awash with people arguing, in various forms, “follow me!” Should we follow such people? Can we trust such people to lead us in a good direction? The answers are no….and no. People are not trustworthy. We are fallen. We are corrupt. We are sinners. That is the reality of humanity, and that reality makes humanity a poor choice when it comes to trusting.” – Peter Nayland Kust
Whose Side is Putin Really On? – “When the Establishment Controls All the Players. The Western Elite parades Russia and Putin as the single greatest threat to our world, dear reader; we are told Russia has stood apart, that Putin draws a line in the sand, that he will never accept Ukraine joining NATO. Tensions mount as Western forces and its influence creep ever closer to the border, and we are led to believe this is a dangerous standoff, one that could ignite World War III. But it is an act, curious mind, every bit of it. To understand the performance, we must go back more than a century.” – Jordan Nuttall
First They Came for Our History… – “Even in the best of times, government is not your friend. Government is not your friend. It cares about its own preservation, not yours. That’s why citizens who resist the government’s authority are tried for treason, while governments that resist the people’s authority award themselves immunity. Ostensibly, governments are formed to protect the lives and liberties of citizens. In practice, governments sacrifice their citizens’ lives and liberties whenever expedient ” – J.B. Shurk
PA Public Health Officials Target Amish Door-to-Door For Measles Vaccine Re-Education, On-Site Injection – “In Pennsylvania Amish country, an obese and remarkably homely nurse in the employ of the state Public Health™ authority, Dale Weiser has been going door-to-door with an arsenal of measles vaccines in tow in order to “encourage” vaccine uptake among the community that “abstains from Western medicine” — in other words, a community full of domestic terrorists begging for the business end of the long arm of the law. In a real nation with any degree of civil liberties to speak of, obviously, the Amish residents of Chester County would be well within their rights to take a Public Health™ official turning up on their doorsteps with loaded weapons (syringes) as an existential safety threat and then to take the necessary actions to neutralize it — exactly the kind of eventuality the Second Amendment was intended to remedy. Alas, America hasn’t been a real nation for a great many years.” – Ben Bartee
More Truth About The Climate Lies – “Last week we noted that so far there had been zero Atlantic hurricanes, a record. For the first time in 112 years, we’ve now gone this deep into hurricane season without one. Of course the media ignore this monumental phenomenon because it doesn’t fit the global warming tale. So what other inconvenient facts are they covering up? Here’s a partial list:” – I & I Editorial Board
What Price Solar? – “It’s not so cheap as they would have you believe. We are regularly told that solar energy is the cheapest form of energy there is. And so I was intrigued by a series of three articles on the BBC website in the last month, which seemed to my mind to cast doubt on that claim – at least so far as the UK is concerned. They are all in respect of a proposed new solar farm (East Pye) in Norfolk, and the common theme of the articles is that the development, planned to cover 2,700 acres, will cost £1 billion.” – Mark Hodgson

A Republic—Up For Grabs – “In the larger sense, few of us realize how bad things are, and are going to get. Trump, in denial of the Constitution, has, on his own, brought war on Iran, with an unforeseen consequence of doubling (tripling?), the price of diesel, to where diesel may become unobtainable. In this process America is learning that everything we rely on runs on diesel. Gas for our vehicles is delivered by diesel. Everything at Costco arrives there by diesel. Now, EU fools are lining up to assist Saudi Arabia in going after Ansar Allah (Houthis), not because Yemen is a terrorist nation, but solely to facilitate the movement of oil, in order to sustain governments without ethics. This likely leads to WW3, a conflict for which Poland is chomping at the bit, and could well take place along the Polish border with Russia facing-off against NATO.” – Erik@neverhadaboss.com
Does Diesel Still Make Sense? – “Buying a diesel-powered vehicle was once a way to save money. Which you saved by spending less on the fuel and less on the maintenance. This was possible not just because diesel engines burned less fuel (about 20 percent) to move a vehicle a given distance but also because diesel fuel cost less than gasoline. Of course, that was once-upon-a-time.” – Eric Peters
TERROR PROBE Five men arrested over ‘preparing terrorist act with plot to bomb RAF base’ – as police robot probes three vans – “The airbase is home to the US 501st Combat Support Wing Headquarters and the 420th Air Base Squadron. The base, which primarily houses the US Air Force, came under scrutiny in the summer after it was used to launch long-range B52 bombers for controversial strikes on Iran. US President Donald Trump has since claimed that the five men arrested were under surveillance and “looking to do big damage”. Mr Trump, 80, told reporters in the US: “It was fantastic. Working with Britain, it was an amazing job. “We had them under investigation. They, they were looking to do big damage to our fort, and working with the British worked out great. “It may have been Scotland Yard, I don’t know. We worked with a lot of them. “We had them under view for a long time, and we got them. Thank you.”” -Mike Sullivan, Ed Southgate, Douglas Simpson and Fleur Doran -APPEARS TO ME FROM THE ARTICLE THAT IT WAS LOCALS WHO PHONED IN SUSPICIOUS VEHICLES AT THE BASE. TRUMP IS FULL OF SHIT ON THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trump: Invading Cuba will be a “Great Honor” – “The exiled Cuban elite are planning for a neoliberal, post-communist future. During an Oval Office interview, President Trump declared Cuba is his and he can do whatever he likes with it, the same as he does with Mar-a-Lago and Trump Turnberry. “I think I’ll have the honor of conquering Cuba,” said 47, hunched over the Resolute Desk. “That wouldn’t be bad. It would be a great honor. I can liberate it or conquer it, I think I can do what I want with it,” he said. Last week, Trump hinted at an invasion of Cuba.” – Kurt Nimmo
Is Abdul El-Sayed the Next Obama? – “It’s sure starting to look that way. I’ve always found Doctor Abdul El-Sayed too good to be true. He has some great rhetoric, is at ease with reporters, and can think on his feet. He was swept to the Democratic nomination to be the next US Senator from Michigan by his civilized stand against the abomination of Zionism, and simply by being a much better candidate than any of his Democrat rivals. Then this happened. The question is why did Abdul El-Sayed, leading in the polls in the state with the highest population of Arabs in the country, decide to campaign with this two-time loser who lost the second time partly because of her loyalty to the genocidal apartheid state of Israel? The podcasters have speculated that Harris is desperately trying to polish her turd in Michigan because she wants to run for Prez again, which is probably true, and that El-Sayed wants to shore up his support with Black voters.” – Ohio Barbarian
Pritzker’s PAC Looking to Spend Big to Block Herrera – “GunTuber Brandon Herrera is currently poised to become the new representative for the 23rd District of Texas. He won’t get there without a fight, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker is bringing his national political operation to Texas — and Brandon Herrera is one of its first announced targets. Pritzker’s newly launched Ready for the Fight PAC plans to spend at least $20 million this fall helping Democratic candidates in congressional races around the country, Pritzker has spent years signing major gun-control measures in Illinois.” – Tom Knighton
The U.S.-China Truce That Fixed Nothing – ““China and the United States must hold the line of no conflict and no confrontation between us. The Thucydides Trap can be overcome.” Xi Jinping said that earlier this week, on the South Lawn of the White House, at the welcome ceremony for his state visit, with Trump beside him and a military band behind them. Most of the coverage gave the line a sentence and moved on to the trade numbers. I think it was the most important thing anyone said all week. I’ll explain why in a moment.But first, some background, in case you’ve been living under a rock for the past eight years. The United States and China have been locked in an on-again, off-again trade war since 2018: tariffs, counter-tariffs, export bans, a truce, the collapse of the truce, another truce.” – Lau Vegys
Cocaine addict Zelensky tells the world he has a ‘cure for Russian disease’ – “The Ukrainian puppet leader’s behavior at the United Nations this week shows an alarming degeneracy. The degeneracy is not just about Vladimir Zelensky the individual. It is about the whole Western warmongering system and its lying media that promote the likes of Zelensky for their nefarious ends.” – Strategic Culture Foundation

Consumer Credit Stress: What The Data Really Shows – “A viral stat claims credit card delinquencies just hit their worst level since 2008. However, the New York Fed’s own data shows the opposite, and the real consumer credit stress is hiding exactly where the headlines aren’t looking. A number has been making the rounds all year, and it’s misleading. The claim: roughly 13% of credit card balances are 90 days or more past due, the worst since 2008. Here’s the twist. That number is real, and it comes straight from the New York Fed. It just doesn’t mean what the scary charts say it means” – Lance Roberts

Gold: Inflate or Die—Inflate and Die – “Washington has discovered a remarkable business model: make promises today, borrow the money tomorrow, and leave the purchasing power problem to whoever is still holding dollars when the bill arrives. Both parties can explain why their spending is essential and the other party’s spending is reckless. Somehow, the debt survives every election. For years, the gold argument has been summed up in three words: inflate or die. But there is a second half to that bargain: inflate and die.” – Kerry Lutz

Speaking with Money Metals Weekly Market Wrap host Mike Maharrey, the author and international political economy analyst said the proper response is not to sell gold, but to add more.” – Money Metals

VERSE FOR THE DAY
Matthew 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
IMAGE FOR THE DAY
LYRIC FOR THE WEEK
There are many different people
Living double lives
One for the office
And one that they take home to their wives
He sits in the armchair, watches Channel 4
With his brains not expected home for an hour or more
He’s still drifting to and from
Like a yo-yo
His wife is in the kitchen, fixing her old man’s tea
She’s thinking to herself
“He’s not the man that married me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.”
They used to laugh together, now he’s never at home
Now she’s fighting back the tears, she can’t even laugh alone
She’s just sitting by the telephone
Like a yo-yo
You needed me when you were crying
But now you’re laughing, I’m the last thing on your mind
First, you love me, then you don’t
I’m up and down
Like a yo-yo
Yo-yo
Ah, you thought you knew me pretty well
But with people like me, you never can tell
You can only guess which way I’ll go
You got me sussed, but you don’t know
I’m a yo-yo
Just like a yo-yo on a string
I’m a yo-yo
Little child playing with a yo-yo
Yo-yo, yo-yo
Girl, you had me dangling, like a yo-yo on a string
But with you at the controls I could accomplish anything, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You were just playing, I was a little boy
But when I grew into a man, you threw away your toy
Like a yo-yo
Yo-yo
You might be popular, but it won’t last for long
So don’t give up the day job, in case it all goes wrong
Look at your ego, watch it go
Up and down like a yo-yo
Yo-yo
You needed me when you were crying
But now that you’re laughing, I’m the last thing on your mind
First, you love me, then you don’t
I’m up and down like a yo-yo
Yo-yo
I’m a yo-yo (yo-yo)
Like a yo-yo
(Yo-Yo by Ray Davies )
