THE BIG PICTURE NEWS

The End of Reality Consensus Disorder – “The big annual World Economic Forum meet-up concluded last week with a mighty “So, What?” as the world struggled with some success to get its mind right after years of relentless WEF-inspired psy-ops. Own nothing… eat bugs… great re-set… yeah, right. These days, fewer sovereign individuals believe der Schwabenklaus bullshit about the necessity of becoming menials for the “fittest 0.1 percent” of mankind who comprise the WEF’s cabal of elite “strategic partners.” News reports pegged the attendance in Davos this year at a shocking mere half of invitees. Did the absentees quail at the risk of all being together in the same auditorium (what with all those drones and missiles available on the black market)? Or could they not find enough unvaccinated pilots to fly their private jets? By no strange coincidence, one of the WEF’s most sadistic leadership implants, PM Jacinda Ardern of New Zealand, dropped out of office the same week, declaring she had “no gas left in the tank.” Old George Orwell had a pretty keen eye for the arc of history, but it never occurred to him that Big Brother would turn out to be Big Sister.” – James Howard Kunstler

Food in the Time of Covid – “And finally, there’s honey. I buy mine locally. Although the price has gone up, the quality is still good. But with Biden at the helm I’m confident there will be mandatory “vaccination” of honeybees by the end of the year. Because your unvaccinated honeybees cannot be allowed to endanger your neighbor’s vaccinated bees. And then there’s the reason that will never be stated. If Covid vaccine uptake through the shots has fallen to disappointing levels, we’ll just have to put the vaccine in the food supply. And we can’t let any uncontaminated honey slip through to people.” – Demeter

Africa Is Starkly Unvaccinated, And Starkly Unvanquished By COVID – Colleen Huber

A Hard-Edged Rock: Waging Economic Warfare on Humanity – “Why is much modern food of inferior quality? Why is health suffering and smallholder farmers who feed most of the world being forced out of agriculture? Mainly because of the mindset of the likes of Larry Fink of BlackRock – the world’s biggest asset management firm – and the economic system they profit from and promote. BlackRock and its counterpart Vanguard exert control over governments and important institutions like the European Central Bank (ECB) and the US Federal Reserve. BlackRock and Vanguard have more financial assets than the ECB and the Fed combined. BlackRock currently has $10 trillion in assets under its management and to underline the influence of the firm, Fink himself is a billionaire who sits on the board of the World Economic Forum and the powerful and highly influential Council for Foreign Relations, often referred to as the shadow government of the US – the real power behind the throne.” – Colin Todhunter

Who is Behind the Great Food Reset? (VIDEO) – James Corbett

Jeff Zients, Who Predicted a “Winter of Illness and Death for the Unvaccinated” in 2021, set to become White House Chief of Staff – “This winter’s excess mortality is 35%, and our authorities do not care. I do not care about Jeff, besides remembering how he wished us to die a year ago. Bringing him back to the White House is a nice touch for the Biden administration. Luckily, Jeff Zients was wrong about the previous winter of 2021-2022. The deaths were somewhat elevated but not catastrophic. This winter, however, is starting very disturbingly. Since there was nothing significant in the previous two years other than Covid and Covid vaccines, we can only blame these two causes, jointly or separately. We may be observing vaccine-enabled reinfections with Covid that make people die at excess rates. The sudden and unexplained deaths occur due to longer Covid illnesses enabled by immune tolerance and the resulting organ damage. Such deaths are NOT recorded as Covid deaths.” – Igor Chudov

The Shirts on Our Backs – “You have no doubt heard the WEF’s slogan about our future – the one (not far from now) in which we will “own nothing and be happy.” We’ve been living in that future for at least 100 years. The future envisioned by the WEF is thus merely an elaboration of the past – and present. Do you disagree? Well, let’s see! Does anyone in this country own the home they live in – the land on which it sits? Certainly, many regard themselves as “homeowners” and “landowners.” But is this accurate? The question can be answered be reframing it. Is the home-and-land-owner obliged to pay money in perpetuity in order to continue living on the property even after he has “paid it off”? The answer is one well-known to everyone who believes he is the “owner” of a home or land in this country. In fact, he is a kind of renter – in the manner of a Medieval serf – who is permitted to occupy the home/land so long as he continues to make payments to its actual owner, the lord. Or – in our case – the government – which (just like the lord, in Medieval times) has the legal power to seize the home/land for non-payment. It is a logical absurdity to style a person whose supposed “property” can be seized for failing to make payments on it after he has paid for it as the “owner” of it.” – Eric Peters

Reckless Reparations Reckoning – “The lesson from the $22 trillion record of Great Society compensatory payouts is that massive infusions of federal money are more apt to ensure social disruption and dislocation than alleviate them.” – Victor Davis Hanson

There’s no hiding Biden’s fright over classified document scandal – “Joe Biden is panicking.Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland has had the audacity to appoint a special counsel to investigate Biden. His long-term trusted factotum Ron Klain is bailing out. And someone at the White House is throwing his trusted longtime executive assistant Kathy Chung under the bus.” – Miranda Devine

Exposure: Why Mishandling Classified Material Matters – “Hillary versus Trump versus Biden. All three kept classified information at their homes. Who wins the battle to have likely done the most damage to national security? In the end when dealing with the damage done by mishandling classified information it comes down to exposure; who saw it, what was it, when was it seen, and for how long?” – Peter Van Buren

Take Your Foot off the Gas – “So half of all new cars and trucks sold in the future would have to be electric? Nearly half of households (not to mention so many professional kitchens) in America would have to switch to electric stoves? We’d need to generate much, much more electricity to fill the void of all that power once produced by millions of gasoline-powered engines and gas-fired stoves. If environmental zealots in the Biden administration were to get their way, then something would have to answer the call for such a huge increase in electricity demand. Do they have an answer for this challenge? No. They declared natural gas the bridge fuel to renewables, and then they declared pipeline projects dead. In other words, the existing demand for electricity in this country is more dependent than ever on natural gas.” – Jon Sanders

Noted Climatologist Kamala Harris Explains How Weather and Climate Interact – “”We’re gonna have days — and sometimes there will be days — with immense water of rains and storms and flooding, and at the same time we are a state that has experienced for generations, droughts. And we must therefore understand that the issue that are present in the climate crisis are varied — and it requires us to be present and to be in front of each of the iterations and variations that include extreme weather that produces a lot of water and extreme weather that produces drought. Got it? Hell no, you don’t and neither do I. – Mike Miller – GEE, SOME DAYS YOU WILL HAVE RAINS SOMEDAYS YOU WON’T. WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT. IT’S ONLY DONE THIS FOR A FEW MILLION YEARS!!!!!

Real Life Food Fights For Survival Videos Show What Is In Store For Us As A Nation If Food inflation Continues To Spike As Eggs Rose By 60% In 2022 – “But hey, no worries, “overall” inflation is down to just 6.5%. They say that like it is good news that you are paying “only” 6.5% more in December 2022 than you did for the same products the year before. The nation need not worry because the 6.5% was expected! It really does not matter that you are paying 6.5% more in December than you did last year at this time, because it isn’t the 7%+ from November! Never mind your wallet, that doesn’t count. Forget the fact that you pay more to get less at the grocery store, that is of no concern……to them.” – Susan Duclos

M&M’s Tosses Their ‘Spokescandies’ in the Garbage After Woke Characters Cause Backlash – “What used to be arguably America’s most famous candy became infamous over the course of the last few years as it descended into woke culture as many corporations did, and just like these other corporations, it paid the price. Moreover, these new characters and changes to the old ones were clearly done for political purposes and all of them catered to leftist sentiments. Of course, that wasn’t going to sit well with half of America, and it’s odd that M&Ms seems surprised to the point of offense that it did. Like everything else that woke culture touches, the candies had to obey certain rules and these rules sapped all the personality out of them. Then it proceeded to sexualize them by making two of them gay. It’s absolutely annoying that nearly everything has to be this politicized nowadays, and people are getting sick and tired of always having it shoved in their faces.” – Brandon Morse

ECONOMIC NEWS

What Would an Early Biden Departure Mean for Markets? – “Given Biden’s historic low approval, it would be reasonable to expect the equity markets and risk assets could rally on the news. A new presitdent taking the reins in 2025 or sooner would generally be expected to boost confidence amongst investors. The complication is that Vice President Kamala Harris may be perceived as less competent than Biden. So, it isn’t clear at all how markets would respond. Removing Biden and avoiding Harris as his replacement may be tough to pull off.” – Clint Siegner
