THE BIG PICTURE

The Value of Labor: A Marxian Dystopia of Thought – “An example of forced payment vs choice: every household must pay for their water (unless on well water). But they must also pay for their water company’s ‘fixed charges’. I don’t have the option to find competitive water companies. I don’t have the option to search different utility companies that provide my electricity and gas I don’t have the option to pay a different government. Their VALUE of Labor is a totalitarian doctrine. In these instances, labor is not based on value at all – it is based on price fixing. Why? Because Competition has been eliminated by large Conglomerates which effectively and collectively own the vast majority of our corporations providing basic necessities. They fix prices across their ownership brands and people quietly pay because we are told it is basic supply & demand economics of labor value. But it’s not.” – Helena Glass

Covid II: Revenge Of The Experts – “Despite a mountain of evidence showing that none of the Covid mandates made a lick of difference when Covid was a real thing, we are seeing them comeback as we get a glimpse of what we used to call flu season. A few cases of the sniffles have school systems cancelling classes and installing plastic bubbles again. A college in Georgia has brought back all of their Covid restrictions. Fake TV doctors are out pitching the latest Pfizer products, just in time for the holidays! The “experts” who told you to tie your underwear around your head and stand in little circles painted on the floor at the grocery store are now saying there is a new variant with a really cool name. That is why we must act now as we only have a few weeks to flatten the curve. Thankfully, the drug dealers have a cure for what ails you. Just in time for cold and flu season, they have a new batch of vaccines.” – The Z Man – GOOD ONE FROM THE Z MAN!!!!!!!

German Courts Are Going FULL Dystopia – “Many of you likely already know that CJ Hopkins is being prosecuted in Germany for “disseminating propaganda, the contents of which are intended to further the aims of a former National Socialist organization,” Something you probably haven’t heard is that, just this morning, a different German court sentenced a former judge to two years in prison. His crime? Ruling that mask mandates in schools were not constitutional.” – Off Guardian

The Road to Totalitarianism (Part 3) – “So, the Germans are putting me on trial for my thoughtcrimes, and, apparently, I’ve already been found guilty and sentenced. The Berlin District Court has issued a so-called “penalty order” or “order of punishment,” in which I am advised that I am now officially a criminal in Germany, for tweeting two Tweets. According to my attorney, a trial will now be scheduled, at which my attorney will argue the case before the judge that just issued the “order of punishment.” At this trial, the judge will listen attentively to the arguments my attorney has already made in writing, consider them carefully, and find me guilty, again. Then the judge will reaffirm the “order of punishment.” After my Kafkaesque trial has concluded, my attorney will file a series of appeals, which will fail, at which point I will have to decide whether to pay a fine of 3,600 Euros or go to German prison for 60 days.” – CJ Hopkins

COVID Lockdowns and Mask Mandates Returning? I’m Not Buying the Psyop Distraction, and Neither Should You – “For the past few days a very controlled narrative has been spun and spread throughout the alternative media, and especially among the Right Wing media, both the corporate Right Wing media, such as Fox News, as well as most of the Right Wing alternative media. That narrative states that COVID lockdowns and mask mandates are returning. It appears that Alex Jones was selected to begin this current news cycle to hype up fear and outrage, Even if Alex Jones was 100% sincere in what he was reporting, how do we know that this alleged “TSA whistleblower” was not fed this information for the very specific intention of creating a new news cycle around COVID that promoted hype and fear?” – Brian Shilhavy

How To Deliver a Farewell Address – “President Dwight D. Eisenhower tried to warn us in 1961 about the Military Industrial Complex (MIC) and Scientific-Technological Elite (STE) – we didn’t listen. Arrogance and pride come before the fall. Our current government does the opposite of what Eisenhower hoped – to shatter the peace through warmongering; to reverse progress in human achievement, and to destroy liberty, dignity, and integrity.” – Yuri Bezmenov

Trump Triumphant Again – “Tucker’s interview garnered more than 100 million views within hours of being posted” – Paul Ingrassia and Matthew Boose

Trump unloads on Biden, electoral manipulation and ‘corrupted’ media in Tucker Carlson interview – “Trump described the incumbent “Crooked Joe Biden” as “the worst president in history.” “I don’t think he’s going to make it to the gate,” Trump said, saying how the “corrupt” Biden struggles to walk across the White House lawn. “I think he’s worse mentally than he is physically,” he continued, and has a vice president who “talks in rhyme.” “The bus will go here and then the bus will go there – because that’s what buses do,” was the way Trump characterized the routinely bizarre habit of verbal nonsense displayed by Kamala Harris. “This is weird” concluded Trump, saying Harris is not a credible future president.” – Frank Wright

IS IT BECAUSE HE HAS MOVED UP SO QUICKLY OR BECAUSE HE IS A FAKE. SAID FROM DAY ONE THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT HIM THAT SEEMS A LITTLE SUSPICIOUS. BUT IT’S ALL A DOG AND PONY SHOW ANYWAY!!!

The Adversary Is Shifting Strategies and We Must Do the Same – “Rather than working strictly from the shadows, they’re unleashing their plans in plain sight. It wasn’t too long ago that they at least attempted to put some logic, skewed as it may have been, into their arguments. Today, they’re relying on pure emotion, gaslighting, and an unhealthy level of cognitive dissonance.” – JD Rucker

The Biden Clan’s Con Is Coming to an End – “Hunter is still out of control, and could take the family down with him” – Victor Davis Hanson

Don’t Impeach Biden … Not Just Yet – “Yeah, Crusty O’Corrupto was taking bribes. Everyone knows it, except maybe the senile scamster himself, and only because he forgot. You have to be a moron or a liar to deny it, and the Democrats are both. But there is no cosmic ref who is going to come down and throw a flag on his graft. Certainly, the Department of Justice (sic) is never going to do it. So, those demanding impeachment are absolutely and unequivocally right that impeachment is the proper response,,, But we need to get the timing right. And the time is not right now. Take the time to put all the pieces in place, then spring the trap. Don’t let haste allow him to weasel out of his comeuppance unscathed.” – Kurt Schlichter

Crime Rose 82% in Chicago in 2 Years – Controlled Chaos in Blue Cities – “It was hard to imagine a mayor WORSE than Lori Lightfoot, but Democratic Mayor Brandon Johnson managed to surpass her in corruption and crime as Chicago crumbles. Johnson’s first three months on the job, compared to Lightfoot’s, saw 4,321 more car thefts, 41 more murders, and 38 more deadly shootings.” – Martin Armstrong

Hawaiian holiday: FEMA lives it up in the best hotels on Maui’s luxurious north side – “Who says attending to disaster relief can’t be combined with a ritzy Hawaiian holiday? That’s what’s going around as news rolls out of just how FEMA officials, flown in from the mainland, are enduring the ‘hardships’ of their search and recovery work on Lahaina.” – Monica Showalter

Report: Engineers Discover Nationwide Cellular Network Connects Election Equipment and Gives Federal Government Access to Election Systems at Precinct Level – “A growing majority of Americans know the 2020 election was fraudulent. Many analysts who have been studying election integrity have concluded that there had to be a two-way connection between local election electronics (electronic poll pads, tabulators, election management systems, voter databases, etc.) and a centralized data collection system responsible for monitoring and manipulating the election. Fingers have rightly been pointed at all-inclusive election management software,” – David and Erin Clements

Prigozhin is DEAD? – “That’s what everyone is saying. If these reports are true, I am fairly confident that there will be no ingenious Wagner offensive against Kiev launched from Belarus—which was also a Very Serious Narrative. If these reports are true, it seems rather obvious that we are witnessing an oligarchic tug-of-war as tens of thousands of Slavs are killed and maimed for no reason whatsoever. I will not speak ill of the reportedly dead. Prigozhin was a rich guy who exposed the utter rot in the Russian Ministry of Defense—probably for purely selfish reasons. But many not-rich people have done exactly same. Like Strelkov, who is languishing in a Moscow prison. Makes you think.” – Edward Slavsquat / Riley Waggaman – SO MANY DIFFERENT TAKES CIRCULATING ON THIS ONE, PUTIN DID IT, DARK BRANDON DID IT, PRIGOZHIN FAKED IT. PLANE FAILURE. WE WILL NEVER KNOW THE ACTUAL TRUTH BUT IT WILL BE TWISTED TO SERVE ALL PURPOSES!!!

Prigozhin plane crash: What we know so far – “Although Rosaviatsiya listed Prigozhin’s name among those aboard, it did not explicitly pronounce the Wagner chief dead. As of late Wednesday evening, Russian officials said that they had recovered eight bodies, though none had been named by that time. All were described as badly burned. Some Russian outlets identified the plane’s tail number as RA-02795, which is believed to belong to Prigozhin. According to flight-tracking site FlightRadar24, a second plane linked to Prigozhin with the tail number RA-02878 departed Moscow shortly after the first, but returned to land after news of the crash broke. None of these reports have been officially confirmed.” – RT

The Big Geopolitical inflexion Point is Coming – “Jackson Hole, BRICS, Inflation, Bond Yields, the Dollar, AI and so many more things to worry about – but what does it really boil down to? Who will be trading with who, and what will be driving growth?” – Bill Blain

BRIC by BRIC – “Over time, the dynamic is the BRICS are going to be anchored to gold and the U.S. is going to be anchored to nothing, and the dollar price of gold is going to go up, which is the dollar valuation, resulting in a highly inflationary environment. So it’s not too soon to think about inflation hedges.” – Jim Rickards
