Dancing With The CBDC Devil – “Your Money Is Their Money (Part 2). The Dragon is in the Bear’s den for a visit. Nobody is answering Dementia Joe’s phone calls. Every attempt to tear down Russia with over 11,000 trade and economic sanctions has boomeranged back into the faces of the criminals in Brussels, London, and D.C. There is no banking crisis in Russia. There are no liquidity issues with the Ruble and they are not hyperinflating their currency into the toilet. Russia is also developing a CBDC, so they get no prize for dodging western bullets as just another actor in our global stage play. The Empire is on a ventilator, and soon will be given Remdesivir. First, the looters need to loot the last of the phony currency. The people who have been mocked as “preppers” and “survivalists” are finally going to get to eat their self-prepared cake as they relax on the porches of their ten-acre homesteads with chickens, gardens, sheep, gold, silver, guns, and freshwater sources. Everyone else will be standing directly in front of those GloboPsycho fans as their steady stream of s**t hits it.” – The Good Citizen  – ANOTHER EXCELLENT READ FROM THE GOOD CITIZEN. GREAT EXPLANATION ON HOW THE CBDC COULD POSSIBLY  WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!

The World’s Largest CBDC Trial: A Preview of the Elite’s Cashless Vision for You – “The eNaira is Africa’s first central bank digital currency (CBDC). Central bankers, academics, politicians, and an assortment of elites from over 100 countries hoping to launch their own CBDCs have closely followed the eNaira. They used Nigeria—Africa’s largest country by population and size of its economy—as a trial balloon to test their nefarious plans to eliminate cash in North America, Europe, and beyond.” – Nick Giambruno

Your Daughter for a Rat? – “Health professionals who do not prioritize people over animals may get by as veterinary surgeons, but are unsafe with people. There are various degrees of acceptable insanity, but in general you would not want a person who thought a toad had the same intrinsic value as your mother to manage her Alzheimer’s disease. You would not want a person who equated the value of your daughter with that of a rat to decide whether she should be injected with medicine still under trial, such as an mRNA vaccine. Or perhaps you would, as you may agree with the Lancet editorial in January 2023 that equates these,” – David Bell

He added that recognized experts and national public health officials should lead this effort.” -RT

Biden is Acting on Behalf of an Enemy of the American People – “Biden mandated the mRNA injections and then he called on ALL of the US government and private sector enterprises to engage in criminal experimentation on US citizens with gene-editing technologies. Biden’s speech was the most two-faced, treasonous speech a President has ever given. On July 4ht, 2021, he promised to protect our unalienable God-given rights while simultaneously issuing an unconstitutional and criminal mandate that Americans get injected with mRNA technology ‘vaccines’ that we know are bioweapons.” – Karen Kingston

Trump’s New Game Show! – “Where is O. J. when you need him? Cartoonish circus behavior should be funny; a lesson in frivolity, slapstick, and makeup. The arrogant, narcissistic, pathological liar, Trump, has outdone himself, or at least his handlers who wrote the script, (a perfect script for this trimmer) have found a way to not only put him in the headlines of both camps and the nation, (and keep him there) but may have found the answer to take out by pity, his competition for the next ludicrous bullshit election show. I am certain that DeSantis is pounding his fists, cursing, and lamenting that he did not come up with a similar plot to take out Trump. Reports are coming in, ‘leaked’ of course, that New York prosecutors are debating whether or not to “perp walk Trump and cuff him!” My, my, this must be the cap on the movie trailer; a tease to stir up anger among the Trump loyalists. You just can’t make this shit up. It has to be seen to be believed. Be prepared for the movie, and there might even be a sequel.” – Gary D. Barnett

Ron Versus Don – “The truth is electability has never been a factor in these races. Most voters are not like most Republican politicians in that they do not negotiate with themselves. They vote for the candidate they like, not the candidate that a conservative commentator swears will be acceptable to the Democrats. Even if their preferred option has no chance in the general, most voters will go for the guy who speaks to them. It turns out that most people are decent and honest, not scheming weasels. Both camps are right in the same way that two people who have different favorite ice creams are right, even though they disagree. There is no empirical argument in favor of either guy as it is purely a matter of opinion.” – The Z Man

A Trump Arrest Will Backfire on The Left, but Will it Lead to War? – “We are existing in a tinder box. The arrest of Trump may be a spark that ignites this tinderbox. Whether we see an arrest or not, we are in unchartered territory. As we move forward into this dystopian world, out of the box thinking will be required to adapt to and counter act the unrestricted warfare being implemented against the global population.” – Dr. Joseph Sansone

The Death of Dissent – “If anyone thinks conditions will improve soon, just wait until this same Justice Department indicts Trump for “inciting” the events of January 6.” – Julie Kelly

Can You Guess The Antidote to ‘Domestic Extremism’ in America? – “When everyday White men stop seeing themselves as the anti-hero compared with everyone else who doesn’t share their complexion, that’s a step towards unity. Likewise, when lessons in America stop inferring that all White people are the societal oppressors and stop instilling shame in White children for benefiting from their forefathers’ actions, that’s a step towards unity.” – Dear Rest Of America  – LONG, BUT GOOD READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Democrats ‘don’t give a crap’ about kids, gun violence, or civil rights – “What makes anyone think the fascist far left cares about anything at all but the selfish pursuit of power over the people? Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) recently talked to Salon magazine, complaining that Republicans “don’t give a crap” about kids and gun violence. Getting back to the senator’s falsehood about Republicans and kids, why can’t the pro-freedom right assert the same thing about the anti-freedom far left? Given their track record, why do leftists get a free pass when it comes to their utterly failed policies in keeping kids safe? Does the illegal invasion of millions of criminals over their open border protect kids, or does it put millions of them in harm’s way? If leftists care about kids, why are they leaving that same border wide open to a steady stream of deadly fentanyl “imports”?” – D. Parker

As Bank Crisis Looms, Biden’s Aggressive Focus On Firearms Is Suspicious – Tyler Durden

‘People Will Die’: There’s Another Supply Chain Crisis – “From groceries to baby formula and microchips to cold medicine for children, the supply chain issues that have arisen and grown into crises on President Biden and his administration’s watch are nothing new. But worsening shortages in the supply of drugs used to treat cancers are drawing dire warnings from medical professionals and those who rely on such medical interventions to save lives.” – Spencer Brown

Send in the Clowns Yellen and Garland perform back-to-back surprise visits to Ukraine. Sometimes I think that the script being used by the Biden Administration to manage its foreign and national security policies has been written by George Orwell, though I am not sure if it based on 1984 or Animal Farm. Maybe it is a combination of the two. Either way, it would help explain why there is something seriously wrong here.” – Philip Giraldi

Iraq 20 Years: The Uses and Abuses of National Intelligence Estimates – “The case to invade Iraq on March 19, 2003 was based on an NIE that was prepared not to determine the truth, but rather to “justify” preemptive war, when there was nothing to preempt.” – Ray McGovern  -20 YEARS ALREADY AND WE HAVEN’T LEARNED A THING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

John Bolton’s Prominence In The Media Proves Our Entire Society Is Diseased – “by far the most appalling piece of revisionist war crime apologia that’s come out during the 20th anniversary of the invasion has been an article published in National Review by the genocide walrus himself, John Bolton. Bolton sets himself apart from his fellow Iraq war architects by arguing that the actual invasion and overthrow of Saddam Hussein “was close to flawless,” and that the only thing the US did wrong was fail to kill more people and topple the government of Iran.” – Caitlin Johnstone

The Lords of Chaos – “The politicians and shills in the media who orchestrated 20 years of military debacles in the Middle East, and who seek a world dominated by U.S. power, must be held accountable for their crimes. The politicians who lied to us — George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden to name but a few — extinguished millions of lives, including thousands of American lives, and left Iraq along with Afghanistan, Syria, Somalia, Libya and Yemen in chaos. They exaggerated or fabricated conclusions from intelligence reports to mislead the public.” – Chris Hedges

The pointlessness of prosecuting Putin – “The ICC’s arrest warrant for the Russian leader has the whiff of a PR stunt. Now you don’t have to be a fully signed-up member of the Vladimir Putin fan club to think there’s something a little off about the ICC’s move. t feels like an attempt to grab headlines, like a ruse to justify the ICC’s near €150million-a-year existence. Indeed, it’s probably no coincidence that the ICC is currently begging for €30million in extra funding from its main state backers, France, Germany and the UK.” – Tim Black

What Comes Next Will Decide Whether Investors Make Fortunes or Face Ruin – “The Fed begins its March FOMC meeting today. Tomorrow at 2PM EDT, the Fed will announce its policy decision for the month. And no matter what the Fed does, it’s in SERIOUS trouble. Why? If the Fed raises rates, this is only going to increase pressure on the banking system. Depositors, both in the U.S. and Europe, are fleeing banks because A) the banks pay next to nothing in interest, whereas you can earn 3%-4% in a Money Market Fund or short-term T-Bills and B) depositors are now terrified that the banks at which they keep their money could go bust.” – Graham Summers, MBA

This is a financial crisis waiting to happen – “Some have blamed the West’s leading central banks, especially the US Fed, for SVB and Credit Suisse’s demise. They claim that central bankers’ decision to delay interest rate rises, only to rise them aggressively as inflation began to spiral last year, made things very tough for the likes of SVB. But blaming these banks’ collapse on an interest-rate hike ignores the deeper problem. The truth is that Western economies have been held afloat artificially since the 2008 financial crisis, courtesy of super-easy monetary policies. And now we’re starting to pay the price.” – Phil Mullan

Total Wipeout of $17 billion in Credit Suisse AT1 CoCo Bonds Shocked Because No One Reads Clauses Anymore? – “We’re not even getting peanuts? EU regulators came out today and said, no, no, no, that’s just in Switzerland, not in the EU.” – Wolf Richter

THIS IS IT! – THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM IS TERMINALLY BROKEN – “Anyone who doesn’t see what is happening will soon lose a major part of their assets either through bank failure, currency debasement or the collapse of all bubble assets like stocks, property and bonds by 75-100%. Many bonds will become worthless. Wealth preservation in physical gold is now absolutely critical. Obviously it must be stored outside a broken financial system.” – Egon von Greyerz

Practice Time – “As we all know, the life we live today is far removed from the basic necessities of survival. That’s why it’s not only important that we learn survival skills, but practice them to the point where they become second nature. When the time comes that we need to use those skills, we won’t have time to look up how to do it and there probably won’t be internet access, to look them up with.” – Bill White

If You Have This On Your Property, Hide It Immediately – “There are many items in relation to prepping that we would want to conceal from outsiders. For example, food, water, survival gear, weapons, gold, silver, or even a survival garden are all things that we would want to keep hidden from view. The reasons we want to hide these types of items can vary, but we often just want to prevent anyone from stealing what is rightfully ours.” – Michael Major

Potemkin Prosperity – “We only think we’re rich. Over the last generation or so our agribusiness and food distribution system has engaged in a vast sleight of hand. Actual food has been slowly replaced with the simulation of food, without anyone really noticing.As an aside, has anyone else noticed that North Americans seem to have gotten subtly uglier over the last few decades? Is this epigenetic damage arising from decades of malnutrition, endocrine disruption, and environmental toxicity? Has the adulteration of the food system made people uglier? Or am I imagining things? Over the last few years, inflation and shrinkflation have combined to make even the fake food substantially more expensive. Food is just one example. There are others, almost everywhere you look. Education, healthcare, and housing particularly come to mind. In every case, we lavish cash upon them, while getting essentially nothing in return.” – John Carter  – VERY GOOD READ FROM JOHN. I URGE EVERYONE TO READ THIS ONE!!!!

Epidemic of Sudden Adult Deaths Finally Made News – Dr. Joseph Mercola

Bad News Comes in Small Packages – “There’s a change taking place in supermarkets – one that’s going largely unnoticed, in spite of the fact that it’s becoming a new norm. To the consumer, a change in the size of a plastic Gatorade bottle doesn’t raise an eyebrow, but for food producers, it’s a significant event. Each time a new bottle is designed, even if the change is very slight, new moulds must be designed and machined. Packaging for products, particularly foodstuffs, is getting downsized. Resizing packaging is a last resort for any producer of goods. A simple downsizing is costly enough that he wouldn’t entertain the idea unless he’s backed into a corner and can’t do anything else. If an entire industry is downsizing products, it means something more concerning than just a few companies trying to remain competitive. If there’s a shortage of shoes or washing machines – let’s say 10% or even 20% – we’d simply adjust. But if there’s a 10% or 20% shortage of food, it means that some retailers have folded and that a given area no longer receives food. If producers, wholesalers, and retailers shut their doors in greater numbers, there is famine. It will be selective – that is – it will be greater in some areas than others.” – Jeff Thomas  – ACTUALLY THIS ISN’T GOING UNNOTICED BY THE CONSUMER, THEY KNOW THEY ARE GETTING LESS FOR THEIR MONEY AS WELL.

Is Dr. Malone Invested in Humanity or Transhumanism? – “In a recent interview with Glenn Beck, Dr. Robert Malone describes mRNA ‘vaccines’ as the entry point for the suite of technologies that can modify humans through forced biological and mechanical genetic mutations. During the interview, Dr. Malone explains how the mRNA (RNA) ‘vaccines’ are the ‘ethical entry’ point to transhumanism. Let’s be honest, the outcome of the use of mRNA technology in humans can only result in the destruction of the human body (severe disease or death) as part of the process of creating hybrid humanoid bodies that can integrate with the digital realm.” – Karen Kingston

U.N. Predicts (Again) a ‘Climate Time-Bomb Is Ticking’ – This Time, They Mean It – “If you think you’ve read this book, or seen the movie before — you have. Over the past 50 years, we have been confidently told that the world is ending unless we stop using fossil fuels. The New York Post took us back in time to several of the climate yellers’ greatest hits. In 1972, the UN told us we were headed to a climate catastrophe. In 1982, the UN told us we were headed to a climate catastrophe. In 1989, the UN told us we were headed to a climate catastrophe. As I write, I am looking out at my dead lawn as it is being soaked with water again. Water coming from the sky that I was told a year ago, was not going to come.

This Has Got to Stop – “Things that can’t go on, stop. Which raises the question: which things? And the answer is the things Western Civ is doing in its attempted suicide: inciting war, recklessly running up debt, persecuting its own citizens and stealing their liberties, subjecting them to medical malfeasance, destroying their goods production and food-growing capabilities, and subjecting the public to incessant mind-fuckery in a campaign to falsify and disfigure reality. A consortium of public and corporate bureaucracies has institutionalized the falsification of reality under the pretense of saving the human race from a pack of hobgoblins led by climate change, racism, and normal sexual reproduction. They have been driven insane by the actual reality of pending economic collapse, which has only been accelerated by their own suicidal activities.” – James Howard Kunstler

A Dose of Reality: Can You Handle It? – “Where does one begin when attempting to prepare an accounting of all the real terror, tyranny, warmongering, torture, poisoning, fatal injections, financial manipulation, government and media race-baiting, insane ‘transgender’ promotion, depopulation efforts, police brutality, deadly animal experimentation and slaughter, monetary destruction, and digitization of the entire economy by the ruling class and its government? Is there any amount of dictatorial oppression and felonious corruption that will cause the common man to even blink? How much will this proletariat take until they actually say no, and do something about this heinous and evil State’s totalitarian attempts to control all of society?” – Gary D. Barnett

One of the strangest facets of the iatrogenocide is that many Democrats can no longer tell the difference between adults and children. It brings me no joy to note this. But it’s everywhere and I have not seen others report on this so I will.

We Are Argentina Now – “Of course, you cannot fight inflation while showering the system with cash, which means the effort to rein in inflation has come to an end. The Fed will try to limit the swapping of bad assets for cash by substituting treasuries, but this sort of legerdemain is just so they can continue the game of make believe. High inflation is now the new normal in the West because it is impossible to raise rates. The West has turned itself into Argentina through bad policy and worse politics.” – The Z Man

Invading Mexico Is Yet Another Terrible Idea – “These evil scumbags are worthy of whatever horrible fate befalls them, whether through the magic of a 5.56mm round or a 155mm shell or a JDAM. Morally, it is beyond question that we would be in the right invading our neighbor, wiping the cartels out, and coming home. But it is not that simple. Real life is not that easy. If only it were. This talk is coming not only from the war whackos but also from some people who we would typically find ourselves agreeing with – Tom Cotton and MTG come to mind. And the talk is understandable to some extent. Americans are frustrated, and they should be. We want action. There’s a problem and we want to solve it.

“That’s Not True”: President Biden Moves Toward the Evil Twin Family Defense – “President Joe Biden has repeatedly denied that his family received money from China. He has also denied any knowledge of his son’s foreign dealings despite direct evidence to the contrary, including a recorded message from the President to Hunter referencing the deals. The White House has simply refused to address the recording or photographs contradicting the President. Now, there is confirmation that millions were sent from China and then money from a third-party account was distributed to at least three, and possibly four, Biden family members. However, when confronted with the evidence on the way to Marine One, the President again declared “that’s not true.” ” – Jonathan Turley

That’s apparently what we have in the Manhattan district attorney’s office, where Soros-financed District Attorney Alvin Bragg is reportedly presiding over a chaotic shambles in the wake of news that his men intend to indict President Trump on politicized charges. Banana republic politics, banana republic office, just like what you might find in places like Caracas or Managua. The root of it seems to be in Bragg’s stated Trump-hate, which he openly campaigned on when he ran for office in Manhattan. That’s actually illegal, but the matter was ignored by voters. As a Soros man, Bragg has a positively disordered view of what the role of prosecutor is in the city’s legal infrastructure and what rule of law is. Based on his history, he has a problem with the law.” – Monica Showalter

Trump Arrest? I Don’t Care – or Even GOOD! – “The outrage on the right is of course predictable. Personally, I could care less and if you are one of those folks who thinks this is a reason to go to war (whether “civil” or not) IMHO you’re out of your mind. Trump had plenty of opportunities as President to stop the two-faced, “two class” legal system in this nation: One for people who are favored, and another for everyone else. Let’s start with Hillary, who he repeatedly said he was going to “lock up.” That was not a political claim either; she had clearly, openly and deliberately violated black-letter law relating to classified material handling by setting up an email server in her house and then funneling classified material through it in a bid to prevent all of her traffic from being subject to legally required record-keeping by federal employees. That really is illegal and literally the day Trump was elected he stopped talking about and did not direct his Attorney General to make good on that campaign slogan.” – Karl Denninger

Why the Credit Suisse Collapse is a BIG Deal For Banks Going Forward – “The banking crisis has just claimed its first major victim. Thus far in this banking crisis, the banks that were in trouble have been large, but not gigantic. Well, yesterday, UBS bought Credit Suisse for $3.3 billion. Credit Suisse is NOT a regional bank. It is a MAJOR bank with $1.4 TRILLION in assets. Indeed, the bank was literally larger than the country in which it was domiciled (Switzerland’s GDP is roughly $800 billion). For a bank this size to fail is a MAJOR development. However, even more significant are the details of the UBS/Credit Suisse deal… namely that BOTH Credit Suisse bondholders and equity holders are getting wiped out (mostly).” – Graham Summers, MBA

Could Bank Runs Lead to a Run on Gold & Silver? – “”Fears of bank runs precipitating a broader financial crisis helped spark a surge in bullion buying this week. The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank represents the second largest bank failure in history. While Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen insisted this week that the banking system is sound, many banks clearly are not in sound financial shape. Signature Bank, First Republic Bank, and Credit Suisse, to name just a few, have run into serious trouble. In response, the Treasury Department, the FDIC, the Federal Reserve, and some mega banks have scrambled to orchestrate rescue packages. Nobody wants to use the term “bailout.” But that’s exactly what depositors are getting. – Mike Gleason

Banking chaos – “It is worth repeating, that funding long maturities off a short-term book has always been a no-no in banking. But of the $4.5 trillion USTs and $2.7 trillion Agency debt on the banking system’s books, we now know that a considerable portion of that is likely to be in long maturities. This is why the Fed has introduced a Bank Term Funding Program, offering to buy in all bond debt at par on a one-year loan. According to JPMorgan, up to $2 trillion of bonds might be involved, adding to the Fed’s QE, and similarly is likely to be impossible to reverse. It is hardly surprising that markets appear to be waking up to the inflationary consequences, particularly if other central banks introduce similar facilities. But above all, for precious metals traders, it has proved to be an expensive lesson.” – Alasdair Macleod

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

Welcome to the Grand illusion
Come on in and see what’s happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
Wishing secretly you were a star.

But don’t be fooled by the radio
The TV or the magazines
They show you photographs of how your life should be
But they’re just someone else’s fantasy
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because you never win the game
Just remember that it’s a Grand illusion
And deep inside we’re all the same.
We’re all the same…

So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbors got it made
Just remember that it’s a Grand illusion
And deep inside we’re all the same.
We’re all the same…

America spells competition, join us in our blind ambition
Get yourself a brand new motor car
Someday soon we’ll stop to ponder what on Earth’s this spell we’re under
We made the grade and still we wonder who the hell we are

THE BIG PICTURE NEWS 

Your Money Is Their Money (Part 1) – “The financial arm of the plandemic octopus and the coming engineered collapse. The Plandemic Octopus has eight arms. Today’s Octopus Arm—The Financial Coup: The official narrative on the Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) collapse is that the bank was holding too many worthless bonds on their books that accounting regulations required them to hold. These bonds lost their value as the Fed raised interest rates over the past year at the fastest rate in history—from 0%-5% in under a year. None of that has anything to do with the disintegration of SVB. Make no mistake this was a planned run on the bank, much of it triggered by CIA partner and Palantir Founder Peter Thiel, who performs part-time at conferences as your friendly neighborhood libertarian.” – The Good Citizen  – A MUST READ FROM THE GOOD CITIZEN – FINANCE 101!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don’t wish for people I love to die, but I can’t help but admit when I read about others dying there is a sudden surge within me that says, “Good! Now maybe these morons will wake up!” Then my senses come back to me, and I think about mothers burying their children, or children burying their mothers, and I curse myself for my wicked thoughts. Anyone else have similar moments? I am just not convinced this nightmare is going to end without it getting worse, and if it doesn’t get worse, then I don’t think it is going to end. It is coming folks, there is no dispute about that. The question is whether we are going to let it creep into our comfortable pot.

Spit in the Eye of Big Banks – “We’re the deep pockets from which the rich and powerful draw to make themselves whole, leaving us with empty pockets, no job and a mortgage we can’t pay for. No one is going to come bail us out of our troubles, troubles they created by their risky investments, their phony-baloney money changing. No, we’ll lose our homes, our life savings, our jobs and our futures all so they don’t have to eat tuna fish instead of caviar. That’s the truth of it. They refuse to call it a bailout, but that’s exactly what it is. When they insure funds over the $250,000 limit for their friends and political cronies, but not for the average business or farm, it can be nothing other than a bailout. Right now, withdraw funds from the big banks Yellen says she’ll make whole and put them into banks that need the deposits to support their local economy. Spit in the eye of CBDCs.” – T.L. Davis

“Drunk” Driving and “Racism” – “Driving drunk used to mean just that – just as being a racist meant you disliked a set of people on account of their race. Nowadays, the latter means anyone who questions or disagrees with anything racialists say must not be questioned or disagreed with. And the former now means having had anything alcoholic to drink prior to driving. This is the gist of the push to characterize as “drunk” driving a person having a blood alcohol level (BAC) of as little as 0.05 percent, which is about half as much as it used to take to reach the bar, so to speak, when drunk driving had some meaning. This is not a defense of drunk driving. It is the opposite. Turning everyone who has had a drink into a “drunk” cheapens the currency of the charge, just the same as shrieking “racism!” does when someone raises a question about a policy (or a person, such as a politician who happens to be black) that has nothing to do with race.” – Eric Peters

Biden Finally Answers Question About CCP-Related Payout, It Doesn’t Go Well – “As we reported this week, the head of the House Oversight Committee Rep. James Comer (R-KY) announced that they had bank documents showing that the Biden family had received more than a million dollars from a CCP-related energy company in March 2017, through a Hunter Biden associate’s account, two months after Joe Biden left the vice presidency. That money was distributed to companies associated with Jim Biden (Joe Biden’s brother), Hunter Biden (Joe Biden’s son), Hallie Biden (widow of Beau Biden and former girlfriend of Hunter Biden), as well as to an unnamed “Biden” account. One reporter managed to get lucky as Joe Biden left on Friday for more of his perpetual vacation in Delaware. The reporter managed to get the question in as Biden was heading out. Biden’s response revealed just how out of it he was, he didn’t even seem to understand what the reporter was talking about. The reporter asks him about the House GOP memo about “his family dealings.” Biden repeated “my family dealings,” not getting it.” – Nick Arama

Nobody prosecuted there. But wait: There is a crime! They’ve finally got what they claim is proof of hush money paid by President Trump back in 2016 and they’re going to make a “historic first” arrest:” – Monica Showalter

Joe Biden’s dangerous trans zealotry – “The US president claims it is ‘sinful’ to oppose the medical transitioning of children. Has he gone mad? It is hard to tell which was the biggest lie Joe Biden told in his sit-down with Kal Penn, former stoner-movie actor turned Democratic Party lackey, earlier this week on the Daily Show. Was it Biden’s claim that preventing minors from having genital-removing surgeries and harmful cross-sex hormones is ‘sinful’? Or was it the outlandish story he told, about the time he was a senior in high school and he saw two ‘well-dressed’ men openly kissing on the street in Delaware? Or was it perhaps his claim that Biden Sr, a man who was born in 1915, had explained to Biden’s confused younger self that the two fellas snogging on the street just loved each other, and that it was no big deal? Far be it from me to question the veracity of anything that comes out of Amtrack Joe’s mouth, but there is literally no way this ever happened. Two businessmen kissing, in the early 1960s, in Delaware? And Biden Sr was totally cool with it? No. I call BS.” – Jenny Holland

Apparently, Most Bankers (And Others) Have Been Swimming Naked This Latest Financial Crisis Is Just Plain Stupid. On Thursday, at the gentle and innocuous suggestion of the Administration (no doubt channeling Marlon Brando as Vito Corleone, making Jaime Dimon an “offer he couldn’t refuse”), Dimon and 11 of his Big Bank pals dipped into petty cash to deposit some $30 Billion in collapsing First Republic Bank, which was shedding share price like a tree in autumn and on the verge of needing a takeover a la Silicon Valley Bank. The bailouts and the backstops don’t rectify the actual problems endangering banks seemingly everywhere. All they do—all they can do—is buy beleaguered banks time to resolve the problems they have been facing for a year at least (arguably longer). If the banks do not resolve those issues, in time they will be right back at this same juncture, jonesing for liquidity.” – Peter Nayland Kust

In short, a bank will pay you a small percent for the deposits in your checking and savings accounts, which you can withdraw at any time. This is the borrowing short side of the operation. Perhaps it would all works out for the banks if depositors stayed put. But in a world where you can score nearly 5 percent from Treasury Direct – with no brokerage fees – why keep excess deposits in the bank when you only get a fraction of a percent? It’s a good question…” – MN Gordon

As such, it’ll require a bigger gun – a good thing in light of the mighty ten’s recoil. Some shotgunners take the edge off the kick of a 10 gauge, or stouter 12 ga. loads, by shooting gas-operated autoloaders and other ways to reduce shotgun recoil. Others trade some recoil for the reliability of a pump.” – Steve Markwith

Likewise, the reactions of our government will only get more tragi-comically pathetic. The harder this gang of feckless, wannabe control freaks pretends to control events, the faster events spin out of control. Money dies when it loses its direct connection to the generation of wealth from the real things of this earth: fuels, crops, metals, materials, labor, and the value-added products made from them. Since that divorce has already happened, the need arises for something else that can function as money. The government will pretend that a Central Bank Digital Currency is that something else.

But the facts show otherwise. The new alliance between Russia and China means that Moscow has a powerful new friend. It also has strengthened relations with India and Saudi Arabia. Russia is busy creating a new multi-polar alliance that falls outside the U.S. sphere of influence. Austin betrays his ignorance and shallowness by such nonsensical claims.

Is 2008 Unfolding All Over Again? – “The Fed and U.S. Treasury have made to decision to back-stop depositors at U.S. banks – a liability that could potentially hit $2 trillion. More interestingly, there must be a considerable amount of counter-party default risk embedded in the banking system because several Too Big To Fail U.S. banks have agreed to commit as much as $30 billion in capital to rescue First Republic Bank, which would next to collapse. The Swiss National Bank is ponying up $54 billion to prop up Credit Suisse, which is teetering on the brink of collapse. My bet is that $54 billion won’t be enough.” – Dave Kranzler

The Fed is Back to Printing Money… With Inflation at 6% – “The Fed just gave out over $300 BILLION in single week. See for yourself: the Fed’s balance sheet has erupted higher, erasing over HALF of its Quantitative Tightening (QT) efforts. Again, we are talking about $300+ BILLION in a single week.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Funny Things Happen on the Way to “Restoring Financial Stability” – “Whatever “emergency measures” are rushed into service to “stabilize” an inherently unstable system resolve the immediate problem but opens unseen doors to new sources of instability that eventually trigger another round of systemic instability that must be addressed with more “emergency measures.”” – Charles Hugh Smith

The Great Bond Bomb was Ticking So Loudly No One Could Hear it over its Own Noise – “Now that the Big Bond Bust has happened, as promised here, everyone wants to know how it happened.

DIY Poor Man’s Greenhouse – “As a prepper, you need to be well-prepared for any crisis. For instance, you should know how to use survival off-grid tools, build a shelter, or grow enough food for your family. Without electricity, water, or modern infrastructure, a simple greenhouse can be a good idea to grow your favorite plants. Remember that greenhouses are structures that allow you to control the environment that favors plant growth. With a small greenhouse in your backyard, vegetables and fruits will grow in humid and warm conditions during winter.” – John Evans

Get Woke, Go Broke? It’s Time To Talk About SVB’s Ties To The World Economic Forum – “We have seen extensive evidence of this through widespread corporate ESG investment programs implemented in the past several years. It is no coincidence that the invasion of woke ideology into the mainstream happened at the exact same time that ESG-based lending accelerated. The institutions lending to various companies were able to set social rules for access to credit, and these rules required businesses to adopt far-left politics in their marketing and policies as a result. By making corporate elites “responsible” for society, we give them the power to engineer society. However, the WEF’s model of false altruism is turning out to be a disaster for corporate survival.” – Brandon Smith

A Real New Deal or a Green New Deal & Global Dictatorship? – “The system of derivatives products and leverage referred to by Feierstein has now attained levels which “officially” amount to $700 trillion, but which most expert economists claim runs as high as $1.5 quadrillion of fictitious capital. World GDP is no greater than $80 trillion. This is the bubble that threatens to tear apart the nations of the world now.” – Matthew Ehret

The SVB Collapse: How financial crisis boosts the rise of CBDCs – “The narrative will likely come about that “unregulated crypto investment poses a danger to the financial system” or that “unregulated crypto is makes our financial institutes vulnerable to economic warfare” or something similar. The next phase will likely be arguing that small, regional, private banks cannot guarantee the security of their customer’s money, and it would be safer for individuals to bank with either giant international banks or directly with the central bank. Logically, there’s only one place this two-pronged propaganda is headed (for anyone who’s been paying even the smallest bit of attention): Central Bank Digital Currency. The narrative fits too well for it to be anything else.” – Kit Knightly   – MADE A SIMILAR OBSERVATION ON TUESDAY IN RESPONSE TO THE Z MAN’S ARTCLE!!!!!!!!!!!!

What Happens When the Government Breaks Its Own Laws? – “The Department of Justice has pursued the defendants in Jan. 6-related matters with much zeal. The current Proud Boys trial, however, exceeds anything that has recently been revealed. Yet in the current case, the government should be prosecuting its own. Late last week, an FBI agent admitted under cross-examination that she was asked to alter evidence so as to remove the name of another FBI agent as having been present during a critical government meeting between agents and a confidential source. Obviously, materially altering government records, particularly those likely to be evidence in a criminal case, is a crime.” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

And wartime, he noted at the end of the segment, leads to extraordinary suppression of political dissent.” – Thomas Lifson

Bush-Era Neocons Should Shut The Fuck Up About Iraq (And Everything Else) – “David Frum and Max Boot, two neoconservatives who helped grease the wheels for the invasion of Iraq, have some thoughts they’d like to share with us as we approach the 20th anniversary of that horrific and unforgivable war. Both of these perspectives can be read in widely esteemed mainstream publications, because everyone who was responsible for inflicting that war upon our species has enjoyed mainstream influence and esteem to this very day. Both men concede in their own ways that the war was a mistake, while simultaneously cheerleading the US proxy war in Ukraine that has brought humanity closer to nuclear armageddon than it has been at any time since the Cuban Missile Crisis.” – Caitlin Johnstone

DeSantis Is Right About Ukraine – “Ron DeSantis came out against our current blank check n’ hack cliches Ukraine policy, stating the indisputable truth that Ukraine was not a vital US interest worthy of risking World War III with Russia. The next day he was proven right when a Russian SU-27 knocked a US Reaper drone into the Black Sea. Hey, feeding Russians (and Ukrainians) into a meat grinder is all fun and games until we get dragged into the abattoir too. Of course, all the right people got really mad about it – when Bill Kristol, Adam Kinzinger, David French, Max Boot and Mitt Romney are all for something, you need to be against it. ” – Kurt Schlichter  – HE MAY BE RIGHT, BUT HE MAY BE WRONG.

Does Putin Want Nuclear War? – “US senator wants ‘nuclear war’ – Moscow. American politicians are inciting an “apocalyptic conflict,” Russia’s envoy has warned What is the point of these endless Russian complaints? Will the Kremlin ever understand that it is the Kremlin’s failure to use sufficient force to terminate a conflict whose ever-widening character threatens to end in nuclear war? Why does the Kremlin refuse to understand an obvious situation? Where is the Russian Army? How many times have senior Russian officials noted incidents that “confirm US involvement in the Ukraine conflict”? Why does the Kremlin embarrass itself by pointing out incidents that it does nothing about? The drone was obviously a provocation. Washington’s intention was to produce a Russian response to a drone headed into Russian territory. Will the drone incident be the excuse for sending F-16s to Ukraine?” – Paul Craig Roberts

The Biden Budget: Smoke, Mirrors, and Class Warfare – “”It is tempting to start with a constitutional argument. First, there is nothing in Article II of the Constitution that grants the President the power to propose legislation and spending (which, in effect, is what the proposed budget does). At best, the President, in his State of the Union address to Congress may “recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.” The very idea that the executive – meant to execute the laws, and not write them – should propose a budget comes close to violating Article I, section 7, – Nikolai G. Wenzel

‘Off the rails’: Biden puts bull’s-eye on another ‘threatening’ appliance – “Instead of working to lower food prices for families and lessening inflation, the Biden administration’s priority is to target as many as 40% of Americans and arbitrarily ban their gas stoves, And now a report in the Washington Free Beacon documents the Biden campaign against washing machines. When you’re squeezing all you can out of the efficiency in terms of electricity use and water… you by definition either make the appliance worse or slower, Why are we so focused on the energy output, as opposed to if it’s helping me wash my clothes?” – Bob Unruh

Swiss Central Bank Steps in to Backstop Credit Suisse Amid Financial Collapse – The Larger Geopolitical Dynamic is Clear – “Before getting to the details of the Credit Suisse issue, it is worth taking a bigger geopolitical context to the dynamic.

The Next Bomb to Go Off in the Banking Crisis Will Be Derivatives – “Bloomberg News ran this headline at 12:54 p.m. – “US Treasury Reviewing US Banks’ Exposure to Credit Suisse.” By “exposure,” the Treasury really means how many billions of dollars of underwater derivatives are U.S. banks on the hook for as a counterparty to Credit Suisse. The Treasury also has to worry about U.S. banks’ exposure to Credit Suisse’s other major counterparties that U.S. banks do business with, even if the banks are not direct counterparties to Credit Suisse itself.” – Pam Martens and Russ Martens

Items to keep in your pocket for self-defense – “In the event of a dangerous situation where one needs to protect himself, a firearm is often seen as the most effective defense. Handguns, in particular, offer the advantage of allowing the defender to maintain a safe distance from the attacker, as well as not requiring excessive physical strength or skill to use. However, there may be circumstances where carrying a firearm is not possible. This could include living or working in a location where firearms are prohibited, having a criminal record that prevents obtaining the necessary license or permit, or simply not having the resources to purchase a firearm and invest in the ammunition and training needed for proficiency. In any case, alternative defense options exist,” – Bob Rodgers

The Homily of Obedience: A Curse on America – “This is the essence of the American system today, with current ‘prescriptions’ being to censor speech, eradicate dissent, shame disobedience by using division, create concentration camps for non-compliance with government orders, and to destroy any ability to voice opinion against the State. The drive of American rule and politics, and of this Fascist ‘republic,’ has always been to create and enforce obedience by the entirety of the population to all State mandates, illegal laws, and immoral demands. In order to achieve such a heinous coup, the first step was to build a ‘free’ system of ‘public’ (government) schooling to indoctrinate and dumb down societ” – Gary D. Barnett

A Closed System – “There is so much going on we don’t know about. Like I’ve said before, we definitely have reached that critical point of being a “closed system.” The media are all in on it, so they control the flow of information. No one knows what is happening unless they literally see it or experience it. It is fascinating how if you don’t receive reliable information about what’s going on, you really don’t know at all…even in your own neighbourhood. Obviously some of us know more than others. That’s because we look for other news sources… The sheep have been trained to believe the alternative news is all conspiracy, misinformation, and hogwash at best. I won’t even say what they believe “at worst.” Once a system is closed, there really is little chance of going back unless some radical event takes place.” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP  –  A MUST READ FROM TODD!!!!!!!

Geofence Surveillance: First, They Spied on Protesters. Then Churches. You’re Next – “If you give the government an inch, it will always take a mile. This is how the slippery slope to all-out persecution starts. This particular slippery slope has to do with the government’s use of geofence technology, which uses cell phone location data to identify people who are in a particular area at any given time. First, police began using geofence warrants to carry out dragnet sweeps of individuals near a crime scene. Then the FBI used geofence warrants to identify individuals who were in the vicinity of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. It wasn’t long before government officials in California used cell phone and geofence data to track the number and movements of churchgoers on church grounds during the COVID-19 lockdowns. If we’ve already reached the point where people praying and gathering on church grounds merits this level of government scrutiny and sanctions, we’re not too far from free-falling into a total surveillance state.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

Arrest That Corpse! – “An interesting thing about government – about government workers – is that they can legally do things that would be criminal under the law if we were to do them. This begs the question about the morality of what government does – unless one takes the position that legality and morality are synonymous. Government morality seems to boil down to this: If you do not follow its laws, government workers will – ultimately – kill you. A young man named Chase Allen, who was 25-years-old, is dead because of a chain of events that began when a government worker decided to enforce a law requiring his car (all cars) to be “registered” with the government. You may think the government has the right to enforce such laws, though it is difficult to understand how “government” – which isn’t a living being – can have any rights at all. It certainly has power, of course – but then, so did the National Socialists in Germany.” – Eric Peters

In fact, it was a harmless piece of rope, left in the tree by a tree-trimmer who’d used it to climb the tree to cut branches and leaves that were too high to reach from the ground. Granted, there is a portion of the rope in the shape of a “noose,” but the rest doesn’t look like a rope meant for hanging. In fact, it looks a good deal like there’s climbing being done.” – Joe Saunders  – HE WAS STILL PROBABLY A WHITE SUPREMACIST TREE TRIMMER!!!!

Death of a Myth – “Americans need to wake up to the realities of a post-unipolar world before it’s too late. As we witness the collapse of various mainstream narratives, especially those surrounding the U.S./NATO war with Russia in Ukraine, Americans should begin to reassess their understanding of U.S. national leadership. Most American citizens have no notion of the great disparity between what their government does overseas and the stories they hear from its mouthpieces. As a result, Americans unwittingly support all sorts of foreign operations with little or no understanding of what is actually going on.” – George D. O’Neill Jr.

Joe Biden’s racial totalitarianism – “His latest ‘equity’ scheme will usher in a grim new era of woke discrimination. Last month, he announced a new presidential executive order, named ‘Further Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government’. The aim of the order is to overhaul the US government so that all policies and practices align with the woke principles of ‘diversity, equity and inclusion’. Biden’s executive order is incredibly broad and transformative. It creates a new army of bureaucrats to infiltrate every government agency and enforce ideological conformity. As the order itself states, Biden’s policy is ‘to advance an ambitious, whole-of-government approach to racial equity’ and to ‘continuously embed equity into all aspects of federal decision-making’.” – Sean Collins

The Shifting Ukraine Narrative – “Of course, what we are seeing is a change in the narrative. The old narrative was based on the Russians running out of men and material and the heroic Ukrainians, armed with weapons from their morally superior backers in the West, would go on the great counter offensive and drive the Russians from the Donbas. That has been the story for a year, but now that story is inoperative. Since Western leaders live in a fictional world of their own creation, they need a new narrative. The new narrative will probably blame the Ukrainian leadership for the failures on the battlefield and maybe the failure to conduct negotiations.” – The Z Man

You’ll see that with the exception of 2017 to mid-2019, rates were effectively at ZERO for most of this time. The Fed didn’t just keep rates at zero either. It printed money and used that money to buy assets/ debt securities to prop up the system anytime things started to break down. We’re not talking about a little money printing either. Between 2007 and 2023, the Fed printed over $8 TRILLION. This suppression of interest rates… combined with the money printing and easy access to credit had one primary beneficiary… The Tech sector.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Silicon Valley Bank Crisis: The Liquidity Crunch We Predicted Has Now Begun – “There are many fine articles out there covering the details of the SVB situation, but what I want to talk about more is the root of it all. The bank’s shortfalls are not really the cause of the crisis, they are a symptom of a wider liquidity drought that I predicted here at Alt-Market months ago, including the timing of the event. First, though, let’s discuss the core issue, which is fiscal tightening and the Federal Reserve. Everything is tied back to liquidity. With higher rates, banks are hard-pressed to borrow from the Fed and companies are hard-pressed to borrow from banks. This means companies that were hiding financial weakness and exposure to bad investments using easy credit no longer have that option.” – Brandon Smith  – ANOTHER GOOD ONE FROM BRANDON AS USUAL!!!!

Are Bank Failures tied to COVID Lockdowns and THAT Giant Economic Destruction created over the past three years? – “Here’s some of what actually happened. MANY of the businesses that failed as a result of the lockdowns had outstanding loans with banks. They stopped paying back those loans. On top of that, many suddenly impoverished businesspeople took out government COVID loans and now they can’t pay them back. For banks, this creates what economists call a liquidity crunch. The first banks to fall are the ones who made the craziest loans for the most amount of money. But the problem doesn’t stop there. The SVB bank that just crashed undoubtedly has connections to other banks. You could say bigger banks back up the smaller ones. This tends to create a domino effect. So YES, the vicious COVID lockdowns are playing a significant role in what’s happening to banks as we speak.” – Jon Rappoport

The Great Reckoning – “No one should be deceived by what is happening. Last weekend, the Federal Reserve decided that the banks are all broke due to holding assets that have a declining market value, so the Federal Reserve effectively nationalized the banks. The only way they can regain control of money policy is to eliminate the market for long dated bonds by promising to buy them at face value. The Federal Reserve has nationalized the banks by nationalizing the bond market. This is required to avoid a bank collapse but also allow for the long overdue reorganization of the financial sector.” – The Z Man  – ALTHOUGH NOT NOTED HERE THIS WILL HELP TO USHER IN THE CBDC, WHICH IS ONE OF THE WEF’S GOALS!!!!

If thinking people learned only one thing from the covid pandemic, it was that official government narratives are politically slanted and often untrue. In this latest HPAI outbreak, perhaps the most egregious departure from truth is the notion that the birds have died as a result of the disease and that euthanasia for survivors is the best and only option. First, of the nearly 60 million claimed deaths, perhaps no more than a couple million have actually died from HPAI.

Rejecting the Bureaucratic Dictatorship – “We can’t live with these people, these wokeist pedophiles. We have to neuter the federal government forcing them on us through the Department of Education. The only thing that allows people with insane beliefs, reckless spending and violent tendencies to infiltrate the peaceful corners of the nation and rob it of its wealth and culture is the overall federal framework that stands in the way of common sense, decency and good business. The left is killing the right, and it’s a sort of murder/suicide pact. The left can’t survive without the economic engine of the right. Proof of that is the woke, liberal Silicon Valley Bank that just went under. We were promised that it would never happen again, but we knew it would, because they didn’t change anything, except to restrict depositors and monitor the hard-working, blue-collar family’s deposits while ignoring the 160-some Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) racked up by the Biden crime family.” – T.L.

The Left Cheered for Persecution of Jan. 6 Rioters, Now It’s Being Used Against Them in ‘Cop City’ – “The state should never be expanded — no matter how politically advantageous it seems at the time. “Don’t dare call them protesters,” Joe Biden famously said after the largely unarmed mob of pro-Trump hooligans stormed the capitol to take selfies with cops, hang from rafters, sit in politicians’ chairs, and steal memorabilia like they were frat boys. “They were a riotous mob. Insurrectionists. Domestic terrorists. It’s that basic. It’s that simple,” he said, later comparing the riot to an act of “sedition.”” – Matt Agorist

Biden’s Genius Detente Has Cost America the Old Ballgame – “President Joe Biden’s benefactors have lost the world, whether Russia wins or loses in Ukraine.

However, reports emerged that Joe’s granddaughter would also be on the trip. No, not little four-year-old Navy Joan (Hunter’s love child is still shunned by Joe and Jill), but high school senior Natalie, as she was on spring break. During a press briefing with reporters, Jean-Pierre’s mouth got ahead of her. When members of Biden’s extended family accompany him on official travel, does the president or a member of his family reimburse the federal government — taxpayers, that is — for his family members’ travel expenses? To this, Jean-Pierre said, “I actually don’t know.” What does she know? Anything? But get this: as it turns out, Natalie wasn’t the only Biden girl to join Joe: Well, I’ll be!

E Verify is BS – “The systemic attack and unrestricted warfare designed to abolish the United States and diminish the human population has many facets. Biological warfare, computer elections, supply chain attacks, dismantling energy supplies, food shortages, inflation, the surveillance police state, and a centralized digital bank currency, are just a few aspects of this all out assault. A virtual invasion via unfettered illegal immigration is also an important element to this campaign of asymmetrical warfare. Let’s hone in on the illegal immigration issue. It is painfully obvious that the problem of unfettered illegal immigration is deliberately created so as to herd unthinking conservatives into the knee jerk reaction of going along with E Verify. Creating and enhancing the police state apparatus is not the way to stop illegal immigration. Securing the borders is.” – Dr. Joseph Sansone  – GOOD ARTICLE FROM JOSEPH!!!!!

Lunatic Reveals the Real Face of Republican “Non-interventionism” – “Rep. Anna Paulina Luna demonstrates women can be as psychopathic as their male counterparts. Luna is Latin for Moon. Lunatic is an insane person, once thought to be governed by phases of the Moon. I am convinced Anna Paulina Luna, a republican representative from Florida, is a Lunatic. It has nothing to do with the Moon. Here she is, calling for the end of the world as we know it. Explaining her support for withdrawal of US troops from Syria, Rep. Anna Luna (R-FL) says the troops should be used instead for the coming “fight” with China — which “will require 100% of our military.” That is to say, criminal troops, because the occupation of eastern Syria is illegal. They are to be pulled, not because stealing oil and killing Syrians is wrong, but because they will be needed when the USG declares war (without congressional authorization) against China. Luna, Lunatic, indeed.” – Kurt Nimmo

If You Can’t Hold It, It’s Not Really Yours – “The failure of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank reminds us of a very important truth — if you can’t hold it in your hand, you don’t really own it. That’s why it’s wise to hold at least some of your wealth in hard assets like gold and silver that are in your direct possession or at least stored in a secure, allocated, segregated, and insured storage facility.” – Michael Maharrey

Is It 2008 All Over Again? – “Is it 2008 all over again? Yes and no. “Yes” in the sense that the Fed created a massive bubble in risk assets. Also “yes” in the sense that banks made stupid decisions, violating central tenets of risk management by lending money to clients that could never pay it back (this time tech startups instead of high risk mortgage borrowers). And finally “yes” in the sense that the guilty players get bailed out by the tax-payer and the wealthy are made “whole” with preferential treatment due to their connections to DC. However, that’s where the similarities end… because the issues the financial system faces today are far greater and systemic that the ones it faced in 2008.” – Graham Summers, MBA

These measures are like an ambush… They’re only effective if it’s a surprise.

Yes, the Latest Bank Bailout Is Really a Bailout, and You Are Paying for It. – “Now, many readers might be saying to themselves, “I thought bank deposits were insured!” That, of course, is correct, but deposits are only legislatively insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Moreover, it is extremely easy to acquire deposit insurance on much more than $250,000 by simply keeping money at more than one bank. That $250,000 limit applies to the deposits at each bank where a depositor keeps funds. In an illustration of the laziness and arrogance that so characterizes our modern financial class, however, many of the wealthiest depositors at Silicon Valley Bank couldn’t be bothered with managing their deposits, and they essentially ignored the deposit-insurance rules that even a ten-year-old understands when opening his first bank account. As a result, many venture capitalists and other wealthy SVB customers stand to lose a lot of money. At least, they stood to lose a lot of money before Sunday evening,” – Ryan McMaken

Money Troubles – “Money is all theoretical… until it’s not. The rot was plain to see in the banking architecture built on US treasury paper (bills, notes, bonds) as rising interest rates undercut the price of all the debt paper issued previously at lower rates. And this was the collateral that banks generally held the depositor’s money in. So, when it became necessary to declare a problem with the balance sheet, and cash had to be raised to cover it, the treasury paper could only be sold at a loss, liabilities exceeded assets, word got out, depositors rushed to secure the money in their accounts, and that was all she wrote for yon bank, in this case, Silicon Valley Bank, the first to crumble. Since banks today exist in a vast matrix of interconnected obligations — promises to pay this-and-that — fear grows that the rot from one bank, such as SVB, will infect many other banks that are no longer able to keep their promises about paying this-and-that, leading to a daisy-chain of things not getting paid. For an economy, that’s about the same as the blood ceasing to circulate in a body. You may have noticed that the value of your money has been slip-sliding away the past year or so. Peanut butter at five bucks a jar, and all. The situation at hand kind of guarantees that we’ll be seeing a whole ole lot more of that. And then the gods of money will have lost control of the interest rate console altogether. ” – James Howard Kunstler  – FIGURED MR. KUNSTLER WOULD BE WEIGHING IN ON THIS.

Then he falsely blamed President Donald Trump who hasn’t even been in office for more than two years and had nothing to do with this collapse. Trump didn’t make or remove any regulations that affected this bank collapse. This had more to do with the raising of interest rates in response to Bidenflation. So it’s at least in part on Biden’s horrible policies once again.” – Nick Arama

Crisis In The Clouds – “When money has been cheap for a generation, risk-taking is no longer seen as risk-taking. It is simply how things are done, until money stops being cheap, which is what is happening now. Despite the bizarre devotion to the cult of diversity by the people running SVB, the bank itself does not appear to have been poorly managed. When the Federal Reserve started raising interest rates to combat inflation, everything based on cheap money was thrown into crisis. Since every bank in America, possibly the Western world, holds treasuries and long dated mortgage backed securities, it means every bank has the same problem as this bank in that they have assets with a book value above market value. What all this means for the rest of us is the grocery bill will rocket up this year as the bankers are bathed in free money to save the system. We will get new narratives from the Cloud People about how the food bill is a conspiracy theory or maybe it is the work of the Chinese, who are the new bogeyman. The people at the top will sleep well knowing they have once against defended the system from the barbarians of reality who threatened to crash through the gates.” – The Z Man

Most of us in the Western world have never in our lifetimes had a problem getting enough to eat or, for that matter, paying for it. Words like “famine” do exist on the periphery of our vocabularies, but they apply only to news reports on Somalia or Ethiopia, not us.

But there’s another flaw with Psaki proudly explaining how Biden “does nothing at 9:00 AM” — because Biden is, reportedly, not actually a night owl. One CNN Politics writeup dives “Inside the new President’s routine: Oval Office fires and early bedtimes.” Wait a second… Ah, so Biden is actually *not* a night owl. Yet he still doesn’t do anything at 9:00 AM, according to Psaki? We’re gonna need some clarification from Karine Jean-Pi… never mind.” – Spencer Brown

It’s unthinkable that the US government would allow a piece of US soil to belong to murderous Mexican drug cartels. That’s where you have to start if you want to make sense of this situation. Why does the defendant, Kelly, have to deal with violent cartel members and assets and smuggled illegal migrants crossing his property in the first place? The owner of property, Kelly, has zero protection afforded by the federal government—Nogales is cartel land—and THEN, if Kelly shoots people who are illegally crossing his property, he’s charged with murder. And if you think this is the case of a deranged man with a weapon and a few innocent people walking across his lawn, as in some suburb, check your brain. This is nothing of the kind. And now let’s switch to another border story; the kidnapping/murder of four Americans— Was the drug cartel kidnapping/murder of Americans possibly about drugs?

Another Cautionary Tale About Registration – ” Afghanistan gives us the most recent reason to be thankful.  A recent Washington Times story notes that the Taliban is using records of firearms owners as one method to track down those who worked with Americans during our country’s time in Afghanistan, then “target them for retribution, according to a U.S. government report.” What may befall these individuals is anybody’s guess, but the Taliban has an appalling track record when it comes to how it treats those it considers to be a threat to the regime or even those it simply feels may not comport to their particular ideology.  The lesson of the Taliban using records of gun owners to target what it perceives to be threats to its rule is twofold.But perhaps a more pertinent lesson to be learned from the story about Afghanistan is the danger of any government—regardless of whether or not it is tyrannical—keeping lists of its law-abiding citizens.” – NRAHQ

Yellen Said “No Bailout” But It’s a Huge Bailout of the Banking System – “I must have lost my mind to think there actually might be haircuts. Apologies offered.” -Mish

And Then Something Broke… – “First, SVB was not the first domino to fall, and it won’t be the last. The Fed just set up a program for a very specific issue. The next domino will likely be another issue. What then? Another emergency measure? If it doesn’t pose systemic risks then maybe the domino will be allowed to fall. Where does the Fed draw the line? What is systemic? Second, what if you are an unsecured bond holder or stock holder in a smaller regional bank? Well, the government just said you are getting zero if your bank collapses. So, do you really want to be a stock or bond holder in a small regional bank? Probably not. What does that mean? Third, the FDIC just raised its insurance from $250k to basically infinity… overnight! I mean, that’s like every insurance company dropping premiums to zero and saying that all claims will be paid in full without question.” – Peter Schiff

If SVB is insolvent, so is everyone else – “1) US government bonds are the new “toxic security” I know this sounds ridiculous, but banks typically loan out MOST of their depositors’ money. Wells Fargo, for example, recently reported $1.38 trillion in deposits. $955 billion of that is loaned out. That means Wells Fargo has made loans with nearly 70% of its customer’s money, while SVB had a more conservative “loan-to-deposit ratio” of roughly 42%. Point is, SVB did not fail because they were making a bunch of high-risk NINJA loans. Far from it. SVB failed because they parked the majority of their depositors’ money ($119.9 billion) in US GOVERNMENT BONDS. This is the really extraordinary part of this drama.” – Simon Black

Ignore the Bounce, the Financial System is in Big Trouble. – “Stocks are bouncing this morning on announcements that the Feds will backstop ALL of the deposits at the now bankrupt Silicon Valley Financial Group (SIVB) AKA Silicon Valley bank. This is a massive mistake. The banking system is in serious trouble and it is not clear that the $25 billion bailout the Feds crafted will be enough to deal with fallout. One other bank (Signature) has already been closed, while most of the regional banks in California have seen their stocks halted. What’s causing all of this? Two things:” – Graham Summers, MBA

CONTAGION: Terrorist Fed Wipes out Banks as Cryptocollapse Flushes through the System – “The more they say they are working to make sure there won’t be any contagion, the more you know there will be. The fact is there is already contagion and lots of it. That is what brought both Silvergate and Silicone Valley Bank (SVB) down — contagion from last Summer’s Cryptocrisis when many financial writers assured us there would be no contagion.” – David Haggith

Evacuate with a customized bug-out boat – “Many of America’s largest cities, including Manhattan, are paradoxically located in geographically isolated areas of the country. Although one in 38 Americans lives in New York City, much of the city is bound by water, making it only marginally connected to the mainland. Consequently, in the event of a major disaster, such as a grid outage, terrorist attack, or a national pandemic, the city’s eight million residents will be dependent on a few bridges for safe passage.” – Dan Mowinski

VERSES FOR THE DAY 

Genesis 47:15-16   And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in thy presence? for the money faileth.  And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if money fail.

     THE BIG PICTURE NEWS   

My – Oh My – Oh My! – “Please forgive the title, but my oh my! What in the world is happening, and why is it happening all at once? We now have constant train derailments, hazardous truck crashes, extensive increases in deadly weather (manmade?) and solar geoengineering, dangerous chemical fires, food production and distribution destruction, animal slaughters, explosions, strange weather anomalies, sudden deaths, and eggs at $12 a dozen. January 6th, the ‘greatest insurrection’ in the history of the world, all planned by government, FBI, CIA, and others, was on TV as everyone watched the set of that movie, and fake investigations have been ongoing since that time. All of a sudden, ‘hidden’ tapes and information are available on the mainstream, so now many of those who condemned it, have changed sides, and everything is being reversed. The same is true of the ‘covid vaccines,’ (bioweapons) as actors and politicians who wanted to imprison or kill all those refusing to take the injection, are now claiming that they are dangerous. Reversal.” – Gary D. Barnett

Climate Engineering Must Stop or Humanity is Finished (VIDEO) with Dane Wigington – “California has been in the bullseye. It’s not good news because it’s from one destructive extreme to another. Wigington explains, “We know the technology exists and is being used to steer upper-level wind currents and, thus, steer moisture currents, and they are directing moisture into where they have engineered back-to-back snow storms. There is no question that it is being engineered. . . . People act like this is some sort of fringe theory, and it’s hard science. We can test the snow and find the same things in climate engineering patents. We find aluminum, barium, manganese, polymer fibers, graphene and surfactants as well.” – Greg Hunter

NEWS 

Treasonocracy – “the January 6th tapes should be, in any rational, reasonable society, the most explosive and damning evidence of government corruption and treason as has ever been recorded and displayed. They confirm every conspiracy theory of January 6. They show that the government, in it’s desperation to prevent the realization that the November 3rd election was a coup, an overthrow of the republic, was willing to entrap and victimize concerned citizens of the nation, imprison them and in Ashli Babbit and Roseanne Boyland’s cases, was willing to kill them in cold blood. This is what they show.” – T.L. Davis

Hand Picked – “Were we handpicked to know the truth? Are we the chosen ones? I have resisted this idea for almost three years. It seems much too biblical, and although I consider myself a spiritual/religious person I am not so sure if I see the Bible as literal as most religious people do. Since the beginning I have wondered why we, over here, think the way we think. Thinking like this comes naturally for me. I thought everyone thought this way—critically, inquisitively, curiously. It certainly doesn’t take any special intelligence or knowhow, although it seems as if the sheep are very often stupid, ” – Todd Hayen

Liberating Ourselves from Dystopia – “More Americans grasp how the U.S. government actually works. Large corporate interests pay off politicians and bureaucrats to advance their financial interests. In return, those politicians and bureaucrats are responsible for creating new problems for the American people that can be exploited to justify spending huge sums of money — the bulk of which falls into the laps of the large corporate interests. The pharmaceutical industry, for instance, would love for lawmakers to mandate that Americans purchase and use their products in perpetuity.” – J.B. Shurk

The Betrayers of Julian Assange – “The day dream about Anthony Albanese doing the right thing has reached its limits. As prime minister he has not fought to bring home an Australian who is both the embodiment of courage and the victim of a great, vindictive injustice.” – John Pilger

Democrats Are Terrified Of An Educated And Informed Public – “It’s a strange time in the United States, where one political party is actively engaged in a series of actions to keep as many people as possible ignorant. Ignorant not of one particular event, study, or story, but of so many topics that reality itself” is what they’re ultimately attempting to obscure. It’s evil, honestly, and it begs the question “What are Democrats so afraid of?” The only answer is simple: an informed public.” – Derek Hunter

Jan 6: The End of the Rule of Law – “The seeming desperation of government officials, journalists, and politicians to make the January 6 riot seem like a fundamental threat to the republic have led some to suggest the entire thing was a hoax — an inside job by intelligence services. The truth is much more banal: It was a protest that got out of control. But no one seems to want to know what really happened and understand what went wrong: ” – Gregory Hood

Imperial Narrative Managers Always Try To Make Peace Seem Unnatural – “I’ve been ranting all week about the shocking war-with-China propaganda escalation in Australian mainstream media, and I feel like I could easily scream about it for another month without running out of vitriol for the disgusting freaks who are pushing this filth into the consciousness of my countrymen. One really really can’t say enough unkind things about people who are openly trying to pave the way toward an Atomic Age world war;” – Caitlin Johnstone

India Takes A Leading Role In De-Dollarization – “Lo and behold, that’s precisely what happened, with India of all countries accelerating de-dollarization through its non-dollar-denominated energy deals with Russia. About them, Russia has since become India’s largest supplier over the past year and now provides a whopping 35% of that country’s needs, which is also the world’s third-largest oil importer and fifth-largest economy. Their new energy ties, and particularly the growing de-dollarization dimension of their deals, are thus globally important.” – Andrew Korybko

If this strikes a chord, you should know Marjory Wildcraft (she of the perfect name). ” – John Rubino

VERSE FOR THE DAY 

1 Timothy 1:19    Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

He wants to dream like a young man
With the wisdom of an old man
He wants his home and security
He wants to live like a sailor at sea

Beautiful loser
Where you gonna fall?
When you realize, you just can’t have it all

He’s your oldest and your best friend
If you need him, he’ll be there again
He’s always willing to be second-best
A perfect lodger, a perfect guest

Beautiful loser
Read it on the wall
And realize
You just can’t have it all

You just can’t have it all
You just can’t have it all
Ohh, ohh, can’t have it all

You can try, you can try, but you can’t have it all
oh yeah

He’ll never make any enemies, enemies, no
He won’t complain if he’s caught in a freeze
He’ll always ask, he’ll always say please

Beautiful loser
Never take it all
‘Cause it’s easier
And faster when you fall

You just don’t need it all
You just don’t need it all
You just don’t need it all
Just don’t need it all

( Beautiful Loser by Bob Seger )
