THE BIG PICTURE

What Used to be Just Caught a Cold – “I caught a cold about two weeks ago. Something as noteworthy – once – as forgetting your keys. Just something that happens to pretty much everyone, every now and then. No big deal. You might mention it in passing to a friend. It didn’t move the needle much, because it was a normal part of life, like gray hairs. Then it became something to Freak Out about. Because people were encouraged to Freak Out about it. It became almost a badge of honor to announce that one had caught a cold. It became de rigueur to Get Tested! And then make sure to announce to everyone that you had done so – and what the results (always “positive”) were.” – Eric Peters

An Immolationist in Chapel Perilous – “Please don’t burn yourself alive. As this is written, a few hours ago a man stood outside the Manhattan courthouse where Trump’s trial is proceeding, threw an armful of pamphlets in the air, and set himself on fire. Everyone’s first thought, of course, was to wonder why he did it, what it means, who takes the blame, how does this affect my affinity group. Was this a leftist, furious that Trump had not yet been locked up for colluding with Russia to destroy Our Democracy and usher in a dark new era of theocratic Christian fascism? Was this a MAGA-hat wearing QAnon lunatic, enraged at the political prosecution of his tribal chieftain by the illegitimate crypto-communists who stole the election on behalf of their paymasters in the Chinese Communist Party? The immolationist was soon identified as Maxwell Azzarello, a Florida native who’d travelled to NYC a week before, without telling his family. The most disquieting thing about Azzarello’s worldview is not that it is crazy, but that it is not so very thematically different from the way that I, and many others, see the world.” – John Carter  – ANOTHER GOOD LONG READ FROM JOHN!!!

A Coup Without Firing a Shot – “Nothing operates today as it did in 2019. It’s not just that functioning broke. It was broken and then replaced. And the surreptitious coup d’etat with no shots fired is still ongoing, even if that is not the headline.” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

Climate Worries Are Non-Credible, Luxury Beliefs That Harm Civilization Itself – “I live in a small village at the edge of lands surrounded by very harsh nature. Many of my fellow villagers entertain all these global ideas—melting glaciers and parts per million–numbers, floods and ethical dilemmas about us vulgar humans making earth inhospitable or uninhabitable. It’s a strange thing to worry about obsessively, while the vicious storm raging outside the double-glazed windows affect nothing about our food supply, electricity use, heating, or ability to participate in the global division of labor—whether in our offices or remotely via high-speed internet. It somehow seems contradictory to passionately rally against capitalism from the comforts of very capitalistically built and maintained houses, hotels, and pubs; to inveigh against the burning of fossil fuels that literally keeps one alive.” – Joakim Book

The 28th Amendment – “Ethical conflict, and an end to perpetual wars. One of the most effective tools of this “cabal” has historically been war and conflict, and it appears to be back on the docket for ushering in that long-planned one-world government. The wars of today, are not the conflicts of civilizations past. And the masses of debt slaves on the backs of whom these wars are engineered, are (maybe? finally?) waking up to the completely inorganic and manufactured nature of not just today’s conflicts, but every conflict going back two centuries.” – The Good Citizen

Woke or joke – “Let’s play again. So is it woke or is it a joke? You know the game. iIm going to mix up some sincere woke quotes with some woke parody. You’re going to try to discern which is which.

‘Truth By Committee’: Lessons From the NPR Melodrama – “Without hyperbole, one would be hard-pressed to imagine a more damning set of former affiliations and employers than those on NPR goon Katherine Maher’s resume. The only missing institutions to round out the smorgasbord of absolute evil are Raytheon and Goldman Sachs (although she did work for HSBC as well, which is morally equivalent to Goldman Sachs). (As a side note, it has been under-reported that Maher occupies a board position on Signal, which should give anyone who uses the app pause to reconsider how confidential their messages therein actually are.)” – Ben Bartee

A risk-free life is not worth living. To abdicate responsibility is also to abdicate power. When we give over to the state the burden of solving our problems, the absence of personal accountability feels pleasant at first, but eventually leads to consternation, constraint and helplessness – which are anything but pleasant. States vary in how they’re organised, but rarely vary in this respect: they never hand power back.” – Lionel Schriver

Democrat House reps stop just short of explicitly calling for Trump’s assassination – “Rep. Bennie Thompson (D. Miss.), who chaired the House J6 Committee, introduced legislation that calls for President Donald Trump to lose his Secret Service protection if he’s convicted and sent to prison. Thompson fully understands that there is a strong likelihood that the current Manhattan hush money trial or the upcoming Georgia RICO trial, both of which are open partisan lawfare rather than justice, will see at least one felony conviction and prison sentence for Trump. In other words, this legislation is an almost explicit call for Trump’s assassination. It’s been apparent since the get-go that the myriad criminal actions against Trump are a form of election interference. Each case has no basis in law or fact.” – Andrea Widburg

Homelessness Epidemic: the Public Sector is a Welfare Program – “California’s homeless crisis proves the public sector is a welfare program and political tool. The California State Auditor released a report this month that reveals California’s programs to combat homelessness have been utterly ineffective. Nine agencies funded by the state have received billions from 2018 to 2023, but homelessness is rapidly rising and California hosts the largest homeless population in the nation. What have these public agencies done with the $24 BILLION they were awarded to combat homelessness?” – Martin Armstrong

It’s Sacrilegious For Christians To Claim A Religious Obligation To Support Israel – “It implies that those who follow the teachings of Jesus, Who they believe is the Son of God, aren’t as favored by God as those who reject these same teachings and remain committed to what Christians regard as the Old Covenant from the Old Testament. Simply put, it’s a tacit renunciation of their religion’s fundamental tenet that Jesus is the Son of God Whose teachings are divine.” – Andrew Korybko  – WELL SAID BY ANDREW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SITREP 4/19/24: A Small Gust for Ukraine’s Sails? – “Today we have some interesting thematic developments in the context of Ukraine’s future sustainment outlook. The most talked about of course is the headway being made for the Ukrainian aid bill, which is set to be voted on in both the House and Senate this weekend and early next week, owing to Speaker Mike Johnson’s eye-opening U-turn. The U-turn was in fact so ‘sudden’ as to imply sinister developments behind the scenes—perhaps kompromat waving, threats, and the like. From an alleged CIA/NSA whistleblower:” – Simplicius

Nanobots That Release Toxins And Harvest Energy From the Body (VIDEO) – “Humans being turned into batteries to fuel digital A.I. prison. The 248 page patent for the Moderna technology that was administered to people in the COVID shots was filed in 2020. The patent lists several embodiments, or variations, of this technology. And while we don’t know who got what embodiment, we know that several different batch numbers were deployed. And some were far more deadly than others. According to the Moderna patent, this technology contains self-assembled nanoparticles. And in certain variations these nanoparticles can be used for the controlled release of compounds once they are in the human body. These lipid nanoparticles are encapsulated into a polymer hydrogel, a controlled release coating that includes polyvinyls. This has been verified by Ana Mihalcea and Clifford Carnicom’s research.” – Greg Reese

It’s as if all these ‘liberal’ leaders are saying: ‘You think Humza Yousaf is the West’s foremost opponent of free speech? Hold my beer.’ The Canadian proposal is, by some distance, the worst. It’s so dystopian, even George Orwell and Philip K. Dick failed to anticipate it.

Batshit Crazy America – ” Of course, much of that archetypal psychodrama is only played out in the batshit crazy mind of batshit crazy women; for the sake of decorum it is never acted-out. The lurid, shameful fantasies are instead displaced onto Donald Trump, the archetypal “Big Daddy” who so insolently evaded the castration shears of Hillary Clinton — with the help of Russian arch-rapist “Putin” — and keeps on coming at the batshit-crazy women like Jason Voorhees, the psycho-killer in the Friday the 13th horror series (Qu’est-ce que c’est, ladies?) Proof of Mr. Trump’s rapey-ness has been finally and formally declared in the E. Jean Carroll defamation trial. It’s certified, you see, though the trial itself was a joke of performative pretense. All you really need is a cast of characters, including the judge, Lewis Kaplan, who are sufficiently deranged and degenerate to carry out the performance. New York State Attorney General Letitia James was up next to attempt the financial castration of Mr. Trump with an artfully concocted civil case that magically transformed a normal real estate transaction into a victimless fraud (say, what?),” – James Howard Kunstler

What is more, globalists have already committed a fatal strategic error: they have set in motion events that will ultimately unite disparate blocs of society against their continued monopoly on power.” – J.B.

After the Missiles Fall on Israel Things Get Real for the West – “Too many people are trying to downplay last weekend’s response from Iran to Israel’s attack on their consulate in Damascus as some kind of “Wag the Dog” event. While I do agree there was a certain level of theatrics in the entire scene, to think this wasn’t a major geopolitical event is the worst kind of cynical cope.

Are You Prepared for Life with No Internet? – “Y2K  The issue was that many computers only used two digits for the year (e.g. 1/1/97 for January 1, 1997.), the last two digits. So 1998 was 98, 1999 was 99, etc. But what was going to happen in the year 2000, where the last two digits would be 00? Would the computers interpret that as 1900, and if so, what was going to happen? The U.S. spent about $100 billion in fixing the date code errors on computers in the late 1990s, and a disaster was averted, although the issue is still highly debated today as to whether or not all that money spent was worth it. Here in 2024, the U.S., and the World, depend upon the Internet and technology so much that it makes the year 2000 look like it was in the dark ages.

Assuming he doesn’t get removed by a leadership coup before voters sink the leaking Tory battleship, Sunak will be gone by January of 2025 at the latest.

And boy, does he despise them. Whether or not the era of Britain’s Brown Ministers will prove to be short-lived is, of course, open. Certainly the current crop are not long for office. Perhaps more will replace them.

Depression drugs kill many people, mainly among the elderly, because they can cause orthostatic hypotension, sedation, confusion, and dizziness.

A Lesson In Managerial Imbecility – “Now that the West has imposed every conceivable sanction on Russia, the Russia are free to act in ways that they never would have considered five years ago. Of course, the fact that sanctions failed to dent the Russian economy has made the threat of sanctions into a barking chihuahua. The Chinese have been transferring technology to Russia, despite the threat of sanctions. The reason is they see how the Russians got around those sanctions. This also means the Chinese could be helping the Iranians with their missile program as well. All of this is the result of mismanagement by Washington. The sanctions war on Russia was poorly conceived and executed, but the biggest mistake was not considering the downstream consequences” – The Z Man

The Robin Hood Effect – “The U.S. and other Western governments have so eroded the public’s trust in their respective criminal justice systems that they risk mobilizing “Robin Hood” resistance forces on a national scale.

Government offices assist foreign nationals in skirting existing work rules, identification requirements, and other domestic laws. Meanwhile, when law-abiding citizens object to such flagrant criminality, police officers and prosecutors in too many jurisdictions direct their resources toward punishing the locals for violating some vague prohibition against “hate speech.”” – J.B.

FISA Exchanges Real Liberty for Phantom Security. – “House Speaker Mike Johnson betrayed liberty and the Constitution by making a full-court press to get a “clean” reauthorization of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance (FISA) Act through the House. Section 702 authorizes warrantless surveillance of foreign citizens. When the FISA Act was passed, surveillance state boosters promised that 702 warrantless surveillances would never be used against American citizens. However, intelligence agencies have used a loophole in 702, allowing them to subject to warrantless surveillance any American who communicated with a non-US citizen who was a 702 target.” – Ron Paul

In this regard, economics is very similar to politics. Establishment media sources lie incessantly about our financial conditions, and when they are finally cornered and forced to admit how bad things are, they then lie about the causes. That said, I find that these lies are usually designed to do one of two things: Over-complicate the problem so that people give up thinking about it, or, distract from the problem so that people blame a scapegoat. As for inflation, here is the bottom line: Rising prices are caused by two main drivers. ” – Brandon Smith  – GOOD READ FROM BRANDON ONCE AGAIN!!!

One common woodsmen skill that we don’t seem to have much use for in the prepping and survival community is that of tracking. The old woodmen and before them the Native Americans were known for their ability to track anyone or anything.

Is Censorship the Biden Era’s Torture Issue? – “When the government heaves the law and Constitution overboard, euphemisms become the coin of the realm. During the Bush era, it wasn’t torture—it was merely “enhanced interrogation.” Nowadays, the issue is not “censorship”—but merely “content moderation.” And “moderation” is such a virtue that it happened millions of times a year thanks to the feds arm-twisting social media companies, according to federal court decisions.” – James Bovard

Magical Negroes, Eclipses, and the Collapse of Zionism – “Trying to keep it real. Last week, we had a total eclipse of the sun. For some reason, human beings always get excited about an event they’ve probably experienced at least a handful of times in their life. In the wide, wide world of conspiracy, there were ominous predictions, as happens with pretty much every event. It was certainly going to be a sign of something, a signal of the fourth turning, or yet another in the endless series of indications that World War III was finally going to break out. Lo and behold, a few days later, and Iran, at long last, attacked Israel. Allegedly. As you know, I don’t trust anything that’s being reported, and I really, really don’t trust anything that is supposedly happening in the Middle East. Meanwhile, in Hollywood, land of expiring propaganda, Hollywood demonstrated just how committed they are to the poisonous anti-White agenda with their latest magnus opus, The American Society of Magical Negroes. You can’t create a climate where a film like The American Society of Magical Negroes can be made, while at the same time promoting the interests of a racially and religiously homogenous nation like Israel.” – Donald Jeffries

He divided them into two categories: Jews who believed in him, and therefore “knew” God, with “know” being defined as a relationship, and not just intellectual consent. Jews who attacked Jesus, and eventually killed him, because their “knowledge” about God was only intellectual/religious, and not personal.

Israel War Was A Deflection From CIA Betrayal of US – “At a cost of $1.3 billion, the US, Israel, France, UK, and Jordan worked in conjunction to take out the missiles and drones launched by Iran. This realizes two major schematics: 1. Israel is incapable of defending itself alone, and 2. The West is spiking War while scripting lies for the Media about peace thru sanctions. Israel intends to retaliate. The Ayatollah gave the US and neighboring countries advance notice of the intended strike (72 hours). Erdogan is calling Qatar to realize the extent of deception and murder. Jordan is too financially beholden to the West. And Saudi Prince bin Salman is cursing Israel for its stupidity. Testing. 1, 2, 3. No one was killed. Damage was minimal. Iran was showcasing. US claims VICTORY Speech amidst ‘Iranian humiliation’. ” – Helena Glass

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Consequences, Puff and Nonsense – “Israel’s missile defense against the Iranian retaliatory strike cost $1 billion, according to the IDF. In contrast, the Iranians spent maybe $1 million, and only used a tiny fraction of their arsenal. Empires are expensive, and they never last forever. We humans should really learn not to bother with them. The Iranians did prove that they can easily saturate Israeli and American air defenses. They fired 300-500 missiles and drones, mostly antiques, and some of them still got through. Imagine what 5000 more advanced ones can do. Donald Trump immediately demonstrated his own dysfunctional brain chemistry by saying Genocide Joe had somehow “abandoned Israel” by allowing the Iranian strikes to happen. No, that doesn’t mean Trump is a steadfast ally of Israel. Trump is only a steadfast ally of Trump.” – Ohio Barbarian

Iran’s lame “retaliation” makes it worse for Gaza – “The Iranian wave of air attacks against Israel was in the end a damp squib. It has to be said. Virtually all the 300 incoming warheads were shot down by Israel’s air defense systems. But the seeming “success” of Israeli air defenses was not down to the technological brilliance of the U.S.-supplied missile intercept systems. It was down to the fact that Iran had quietly given a heads-up on what was coming. ” – Finian Cunningham

Iran’s Response Against Israel Was Calculated, But Not If You Listen To Western Media – “Iran’s attack on Israeli military sites has prompted a flood of condemnatory remarks from Western politicians, as the mainstream corporate media attempts to frame Israel as the victim of Iranian aggression. While claiming victimhood, the Israelis and their allies also attempt to claim a “success” and that they shot down “99%” of all Iranian munitions fired at them — an allegation that is directly contradicted by video evidence of what appears to be several missile strikes.” – Robert Inlakesh

The Middle East – The Coming War of Wars – “I have visited the Dome of the Rock and paid my respects. Jerusalem is the crossroads of three major religions – Jewish, Islam, and Christian. To the Jews and Christians, this is known as the Temple Mount, while the Muslims call it the Dome of the Rock. It contains a huge rock that the Jewish tradition says is that this is where Abraham was told to sacrifice his son. To the Muslims, the rock is the spot from which the Prophet Muhammad was taken up into heaven for an encounter with God (an event known as the Miʿrāj). Thus, it is the same rock, symbolizing the clash between these religions. There are some Christian Zealots who want to destroy the Dome of the Rock to force the Second Coming and Armageddon. Yet there are also far-right Jewish Zealots advocating the destruction of the Dome of the Rock to pave the way for building a Jewish temple. ” -Martin Armstrong

Crib Notes for the Trial of the Century – “What fascinates us about sex, I suppose, is that most everyone wants it and seeks it ….  Enter Stormy Daniels, that notorious pair of cumulus clouds attached to a person, who made a career in the sex industry and later on, at the age when sex workers generally face retirement, had a fresh start as a political gadfly buzzing around the mystifying hair-do of President Donald Trump. But once Mr. Trump jumped into the 2016 presidential primaries and began to terrify the establishment by winning one contest after another, Stormy finagled a $130,000 hush-money payment through Trump attorney Michael Cohen to keep her big yap shut about their doings. By then, Stormy had launched a “publicity tour” and got herself booked on Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night talk show to discuss the allegations. Fast-forward to the 2020 election. “Joe Biden” manages to charm swing-state voters from his basement hide-out, moves into the puppet-theater known as the White House, and unleashes the dogs of lawfare on former president Trump so as to knock him off the political game-board for once and for all. “- James Howard Kunstler

He then concluded that “Everything we see now…is a planned scenario of ‘revenge’.”” – Andrew Korybko

Stop Pretending Biden Is Some Passive Witness To Israel’s Warmongering – “The more I think about it the more obnoxious I find the Biden administration’s “Gee whiz, I sure hope Israel doesn’t drag us into a giant war in the middle east” posturing and the imperial media’s facilitation of it.” – Caitlin Johnstone

Iran Breaches Anglo-Zionist Defenses in Historic Attack: A Breakdown – “Iran made history yesterday by launching “Operation True Promise”. In our usual style here, let’s cut through all the noise currently clogging up social networks and incisively demonstrate the facts as thoroughly as possible, while also pointing out how this was a game-changing and historic event which has brought Iran onto the world stage in a big way.” – Simplicius

What are the financial markets telling us about Israel and Ukraine? – “As regards Israel, it is fulfilling its mission of making the Middle East a nightmare for its indigenous peoples. And though space precludes me from going on about how that might turn out, BlackRock, Vanguard and the Bidens, Pelosis, Obamas and Clintons in hock to them are betting that, as with Syria, Iraq and Libya, they can profit by turning that land of milk and honey into a wasteland as they build their New Jerusalem on the skulls of Palestinian babies. Perhaps all that will be so. But, if you are thinking of gambling your savings on that outcome, an array of Russian, Iranian and even Chinese drones should serve as a reminder that the stock market, like the wars it feeds off, can be a very expensive place to gamble and, as with the ordinary Ukrainians and Palestinians, you might lose your short and much else besides. Caveat emptor!” – Declan Hayes

Rep. Clay Higgins Reveals FBI Role As J6 Provocateurs – “Higgins said it’s unfathomable to believe that everyday Americans in Washington, D.C., would know how to navigate the building without help. “There’s no way they can come in some random door that gets opened and then get their way directly to Statuary [Hall] or the House chamber or the Senate chamber. It’s just not possible,” Higgins explained. “The FBI assets that were dressed as Trump supporters that were inside the Capitol were there, I believe, and evidence indicates that they were there to specifically wave in the Trump supporters that had gathered outside the Capitol.”” – Neenah Payne

Mexican cartel violence is now spilling into San Diego -report – “Plenty of people think Joe Biden’s open borders is mainly about millions of illegals rolling into the U.S., while the billions rolling into Mexico’s notorious crime cartels as a result is Mexico’s problem, not ours. But that’s not quite what’s going on. Mexico’s cartels have grown so big and so powerful from migrant and drug smuggling that they not only threaten Mexico, they are now taking their internecine warfare on the road into the U.S., which now faces a Tijuana-like future. If you recall the sight of all those Tijuana cars burning as that city shut down ” – Monica Showalter

Are the Two Big Parties Holding America Hostage? – “Have you ever wondered why so few candidates for president are listed on the ballot come election day? There are a couple of reasons for this, and the three candidates not running as a Democrat or Republican are finding out the hard way just how demanding the process can be. This year Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Cornel West, and Jill Stein are all scrambling to gain ballot access – and they’re not getting very far, very fast. Here’s why.” – Leesa K. Donner

The Secret History of Hamas – “Of course, when you try to drill down on specifics with these people, you will quickly come to the limits of their knowledge. Ask them about Hamas, for instance, and you’re likely to hear that Hamas…. As is often the case, there are elements of truth to these regurgitated media soundbites. But the errors and omissions in this pat, Zionist-friendly, mainstream narrative are enough to make those who mindlessly believe it and repeat it not just wrong, but dangerously wrong.” – James Corbett

OJ’s Real Killer? – “OJ Simpson died the other day, apparently of prostate cancer. What’s interesting about this is how quickly OJ died – because prostate cancer is a usually slow-killing disease. OJ apparently bought the lie – and allowed himself to be injected the mRNA drugs that induce heart problems and which may also accelerate cancer. You may have read about this. The term used is turbo cancer. The victim dies in months rather than years. If this is what happened to OJ, then justice has – at last – been served. If anyone deserves to die, it’s a man who killed the mother of his own children and then wrote (had ghost-written) a sociopathic account of how he did if . . . if he did it.

Was Iran’s Response A Dud Or Did It Leave Israel Dumbfounded? – “Each school of thought has compelling arguments in their support so it’s possible that both are right in their own way. Iran launched a drone and missile barrage against military targets in Israel on Saturday night in response to the self-professed Jewish State’s bombing of its consulate in Damascus earlier this month. The Islamic Republic’s Permanent Mission to the UN earlier warned on X that their country would be forced to retaliate for this blatant violation of international law after the Security Council failed to act. That same account then wrote after Saturday’s strikes that “The matter can be deemed concluded.”” – Andrew Korybko

In theory, Iran has now saved face and we can move on with our lives with less fear of World War III breaking out in the Middle East. Not so fast, apparently, as Netanyahu’s government claims it must now respond to the Iranian response. Apparently, leveling Gaza and seizing more territory in the West Bank isn’t enough to keep the right-wing government in Israel busy. The Biden administration continues to say it will have Israel’s back, so the risk of further escalation remains high. As usual, the mainstream media in the U.S. continues to manipulate the facts, as shown in this headline at CNN, ” – Bill Astore

Savor the Taste of Independence, Grow Your Own! – “Growing your own tomatoes can be rewarding far beyond the sweet taste of your crop. The traditional extra benefits keep bringing many of us back season after season. If you’re a gardener, you know the great feeling of acting directly on nature to produce the food you eat. Raising tomatoes gets you outside and sweating, and usually provides a sense of accomplishment. It encourages discipline and planning and demands a bit of knowledge and a ton of patience. Recently, though, I’ve taken pleasure in what gardening doesn’t involve. What it doesn’t involve is the government, at least not in the meddling, bleeding sense.” – George Ford Smith

Except for her doctor and the nurses I didn’t hear much English spoken during my visit but rather a never ending mélange of tongues that never stopped their endless babble. The cost of everything was shocking to me even though I spent very little and ate only once while waiting for the train to depart. What struck me more than the pervasive presence of alien peoples was the overwhelming sadness in the faces, not only of those in the hospital, but on the street.” – Hardscrabble Farmer

Central banks are wrong about rate cuts – “When we talk about monetary policy, people do not understand the importance of interest rates reflecting the reality of inflation and risk. Interest rates are the price of risk and manipulating them down leads to bubbles that end in financial crises, while imposing too high rates can penalize the economy. Ideally, interest rates would flow freely and there would be no central bank to fix them. ” – Daniel Lacalle

Inflation Blame Game: Corporate Greed Edition- “If you listen to mainstream punditry and government spinmeisters, you’ll hear all kinds of reasons for inflation. It was supply chain issues! It’s because Putin invaded Ukraine! It’s Trump’s fault! Recently, the “corporate greed is causing inflation” mantra has come back into vogue. Think about it; if the corporate greed theory held any water, we’d have constant hyperinflation. So, maybe something else is going on here.” – Mike Maharrey

Who’s buying gold and silver? – “A consensus seems to have emerged that the main gold buyers are central banks, which are snapping up gold even though prices are hitting record highs. Retail investors, especially those in the West, have up until now stayed out of the gold rally. We know this because there have been net outflows from gold ETFs, which are the main way retail participates in the gold market. If retail was involved, more money would be moving into gold ETFs than out. First, all of the gold-buying central banks are either part of the BRICS, (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa), or are in Asia and the Middle East. You don’t see any central banks from North America or Western Europe buying gold. This trend isn’t new, but it has accelerated. While most agree that central bank buying is the main driver behind the current price surge, and ETFs are on the sidelines, there are indications of a shift over the past month. Who’s buying all the silver? The first answer is India, and the second is silver-backed ETFs.” – Richard Mills

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK ( FROM THE LATE GREAT JOHN PRINE, WHO DIED WITH COVID 4 YEARS AGO )

We had an apartment in the city,
Me and Loretta liked living there.
Well, it’d been years since the kids had grown,
A life of their own left us alone.
John and Linda live in Omaha,
And Joe is somewhere on the road.
We lost Davy in the Korean war,
And I still don’t know what for,
Don’t matter anymore.

You know that old trees just grow stronger,
And old rivers grow wilder every day.
Old people just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say, “Hello in there, hello.”

Me and Loretta, we don’t talk much more,
She sits and stares through the back door screen.
And all the news just repeat itself
Like some forgotten dream that we’ve both seen.

Someday I’ll go and call up Rudy,
We worked together at the factory.
But what could I say if he asks “What’s new?”
“Nothing, what’s with you? Nothing much to do.”

You know that old trees just grow stronger,
And old rivers grow wilder every day.
Old people just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say, “Hello in there, hello.”

So if you’re walking down the street sometime
And spot some hollow ancient eyes,
Please don’t just pass ’em by and stare
As if you didn’t care, say, “Hello in there, hello.”

( Hello In There by John Prine )

That the demonic, sneering little gnome still wanders the corridors of power fat and happy while a former president is hounded to the ends of the Earth for over-valuing some real estate is, in and of itself, total damnation of the Department of Justice. Déjà vu! The parallels between the rollout of bird flu and COVID-19 are nothing short of stunning.

It is and has also been a way to cover over the darker and rabidly perverse and destructive machinations of State factions whose goals have been and still are endless war, power and profit — sprinkled with a dash of what I call ‘brinkmanship madness’.” – New Zealand Doc

They are winning the propaganda game as well as the trade game. What to do? Start a War of course! Israel bombing Damascus was meant to incite a global war. Israel prepared itself.

Iran Attack on Israel Begins – “The fog of war and smoke of burning inflation take down buildings and markets. Rockets from Iran’s proxy in Lebanon, Hezbollah, are said to be raining down in such a barrage as to “overwhelm” Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system. If the rain of rockets is the full extent of the attack, it would appear Iran’s Supreme Leader (Seyyed Ali Hosseini Khameneh known as Ali Khamenei) has decided not to launch an attack directly from Iranian soil, which Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised would result in a direct attack by Israel on Iranian soil, which US President Joe Biden said would be fully supported by the US. An attack by Hezbollah is a little less likely to bring direct war with Iran and more likely to focus Israel’s military response on Lebanon and particularly Hezbollah positions. Of course, there is nothing to say Iran will not also launch its hypersonic missiles from Iran, but that would virtually guarantee full on war with Israel and the US, rather than war between Israel and Iran’s proxies.” – David Haggith

Iran’s Retaliation Delay Keeps Pressure On U.S. And Israel – “Earlier today the navy of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corp boarded and seized the container ship MSC Aries near the Strait of Hormuz. The ship is operated by Zodiac Maritime, a company owned by the Israeli billionaire Eyal Ofer. The seizure of the ship can be understood as a warning to the U.S. and its Gulf allies to not get any funny ideas and to attack Iran. A closure of the Strait of Hormuz would increase global oil prices and jeopardize Biden’s re-election. Iran has announced to revenge the Israeli attack on its embassy building in Damascus, Syria. But it did not announce when, where or how it will retaliate.” – Moon of Alabama

Gold Is Doing Its Job – “Call it cronyism. Call it fascism. Call it tyranny. Call it whatever you want. But don’t confuse any unpleasantness you’re currently experiencing with the failure of free market capitalism. Mega government spending bills have nothing to do with free market capitalism. And they have everything to do with rising consumer prices. But that’s not the half of it. The rapid rise in consumer prices is a consequence of the Fed’s and the Treasury’s joint money printing operations. In other words, rising consumer prices are an expression of too much artificial stimulation. Physical gold – and silver – has provided wealth protection in times of chaos for thousands of years. No doubt, it will provide this important service as the consequences of decades of currency debasement and corruption catch up with America. Year-to-date gold is up over 15 percent in dollar terms. Over this same time, silver is up about 20 percent.” – MN Gordon  – GOOD READ FROM MN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But in a growing number of countries all over the world the same lies are told. Everything you think you know about euthanasia is almost certainly wrong. Euthanasia is about saving money, collecting organs for the super- rich, killing disabled children, killing the mentally ill and reducing the money spent on caring for the poor and the disabled and patients in pain. Euthanasia isn’t painless and it’s all about saving money and harvesting organs for the rich. You think I’m exaggerating?” – Dr. Vernon Coleman

The Beauty Parlor’s Full of Sailors and the Circus is in Town – “This is that part of the movie where the hero — you — tumbles off the cliff on Kong Island in a lightning storm with a canyon full of tarantulas down below where you’ll soon be landing. I know, not a pretty picture. The cliff is our country’s financial quandary; the lightning is us getting sucked directly into war; and the tarantula pit below is the emerging peril of Covid vaccine injury and death coming on hard, like your landing. Gold and silver are vaulting up suddenly like nobody’s business (literally). This may be fun to see if you are sitting on a pile, even a small pile of the stuff. But to everybody else it’s a signal that something is messed up in the complex engine of the economy. It’s still an election year, har har! It makes you wonder if this movie is actually a comedy.” – James Howard Kunstler  – ANOTHER SPOT ON SUMMATION FROM MR. KUNSTLER!!!!

Since We Can’t Agree . . . – “Ayn Rand – channeling Aristotle – tried to get people to see the principle underlying seemingly disparate things; her purpose (and his) being to encourage people to think in terms of principles in order to get them to see that seemingly disparate things are often the same things. Theft, for instance. The defining principle is the taking of another’s property; this taking does not become not-taking by calling it “taxes” rather than theft. Once this is understood, much else follows. People are not taught to think in such terms for the obvious reasons. If – as in our example – a person thinks “taxes” are somehow different than theft, because the taking (by force or its threatened use) of someone else’s property is called something else, then he will accept and even endorse the theft.” – Eric Peters

The Political Left Has Proven Beyond A Doubt That They Are Authoritarians – “If there was ever a time when the average leftist and conservative could find common ground, that time was LONG gone. Many leftists used to be pro-individual rights; today they argue incessantly against personal liberty as if it’s dangerous to society. They used to be anti-war; now they froth at the mouth over countries like Russia and press for WWIII without any rational thought. Their methods have become violent, vicious, egregious in execution as they adopt an “ends justify the means” approach. The political left does not care about what is right. They do not care about what is true. They only care about “winning.”” – Brandon Smith – GOOD READ AS USUAL FROM BRANDON!!!

Popular Nullification of the State’s Propaganda – “Mass media technologies such as radio and television ushered in an era of State-engineered propaganda on a global scale. Over the last century, television and radio have operated as gatekeeper technologies that effectively controlled who was permitted to construct false realities on a mass scale. In any country — from despotically communist to relatively free — the public is constantly bombarded with messages that reinforce certain narratives. Whether that narrative is that eating marshmallow cereal will make you happy or that “fossil fuels” are killing the planet, there is always an economic or political motive behind what you hear and see.” – J.B. Shurk

China’s monopoly over graphite for batteries imperils U.S. energy, security – “China has virtually total monopoly control over the processing and availability of natural and synthetic graphite, an essential component of almost all lithium-ion batteries, including electric vehicle batteries, which are 40% graphite by weight. A new Net Zero Reality Coalition (NZRC) report explains how this monopoly enables the Chinese Government to affect Li-ion battery production, pricing and availability worldwide. China could control markets for equipment required to transition from fossil fuels to renewables, harm or bankrupt competitors, and even force nations to acquiesce to its geopolitical initiatives ” – CFACT – SO BIDEN MANDATES EVs, WHICH IN EFFECT HELPS CHINA. HMM? 5% PERCENT FOR THE BIG GUY PERHAPS!!!!!!!!!!!

Mayorkas assures Congress that replacement theory is ‘preposterous’ – “Mr. Credibility is back again. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told the Senate the idea that the illegal migrants he’s mass-releasing into the U.S. might just have something to do with replacing the voters with newly minted Democrats was “preposterous.” In fact, it was an “insult,” based on all the ‘work’ he said he was doing to create legal pathways to mass migration. He never answered the question that was put in front of him, but made an umbrageous denial of sorts in a testy exchange with Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana” – Monica Showalter

Here’s Ukraine’s own Centernergo energy concern declaring it to be the worst day in their history, as the Trypil Thermal Power Plant in the Kiev region was wiped out:” – Simplicius

Massive Financial Strain – New Report Exposes Horrifying Situation – “One idea has become abundantly clear over the last four years: You can’t add 41% to the money supply and expect inflation to remain “transitory.” But that’s exactly what the Fed did over two years, after which President Biden picked up the ball in January 2021 and ran with it. The result has come to be known in the online media as “Bidenomics,” and it hasn’t worked out very well for most Americans. In fact, according to a Redfin survey, people are making major financial sacrifices just to live at a basic level.” – Peter Reagan

The thing is, it’s not just modern electronics, it’s almost all electronics susceptible to damage or destruction caused by EMP.” – Ken Jorgustin

The Automated Internet, the Conspiratorial Internet, and the Reconquista of the Real – “The heady intoxication of our early explosion into virtualized reality has worn off. It’s the difference between getting drunk for the first few times as a teenager, and waking up as a middle-aged drunk, with yet another pounding hangover and no memory of what happened the night before. What was once a liberation, a dissolution of inhibition and ego boundaries, has become a compulsion, a necessity, a love-hate relationship with a thing that consumes your life but which you can’t live without.” – John Carter – EXCELLENT EXTREMNE;Y LONG READ FROM JOHN ON HOW TECHNOLOY HAS CONSUMED US!!!!!!!!!!

Total eclipse of the smart – “We had our small respite from things as they are, languishing as we all mostly were here in the gloom of the moon as it traversed the sun. For a small few minutes we were insignificant, mere pinpricks of importance on the face of a planet in this immeasurable cosmos. Our small worlds rendered foolish in the vastness. We, the people did not wage the wars nor exploit the poor nor ignore the inequities. We were simply living our lives with goodwill for the most part. We did not understand how betrayed we would be and have been. That was our naïveté. But perhaps, knowing that totalitarianism is something we could all experience (beyond the orchestrators who live so far above the fray) we could know how to respond differently this time. Maybe. We live in hope and try not to die in despair. And if we need a place to begin we need to recognize it.” – Sylvia Shawcross – GOOD ONE FROM SYLVIA AS USUAL!!

Words Aren’t Enough – “With Trump seeming to be unbeatable in the 2024 election, the Democrats have begun a scorched-earth policy of laying landmines on every conceivable path he might take. The lawfare they’ve invested millions of dollars to prosecute is turning out to be a failed enterprise and like a cornered animal, they’re attacking everything Trump. But they’re also exposing themselves to millions more people. The chaos at the border is starting to show its destructive side in cities and towns, especially where black and Hispanic citizens see the illegals getting special treatment. Homeless shelters, schools and parks are being used to house illegals. They are being given gift cards with thousands of dollars loaded onto them, free housing, free meals, free medical care. An American citizen doesn’t get those same benefits, not even veterans. This is a special class of people, these illegal aliens, above anyone else in the nation.” – T.L. Davis

Social Security Entitlements – Broke: The Big Lie – “Our Government is claiming that Social Security is in fact – a Tax and accounting for it on that basis. Technically, they should be stewards of money on loan and instead they are making a profit – $1,301,952,000,000. Last year, the Social Security Administration determined that inflation was 3%, therefore your benefit payment rose by just 3%. This is the data released to support the current rate of 3.8%: Food up 5.5%, shelter up 5.7%, vehicle insurance up 20.6%, medical up 1.4%, recreation up 2.1%, electricity up 3.6%, utility cost down 8.2%, gasoline down 3.9%, fuel oil down 5.4%, and personal care up 4.2% = net up 22.3% Common Core Math. Funky numbers and faulty algorithms are costing Social Security recipients billions annually! We are being cheated in one of the largest Ponzi scams in history. ” – Helena Glass

Time to Rethink Your Never Trumpism – “Okay, my Trump-shy friends, it’s time to put aside your fussy principles about how icky Donald Trump is. This is serious, and we need all hands on deck to throw Biden overboard before he gets a whole lot more Americans killed. I get that you don’t like Trump. Let’s agree that he’s icky for the purposes of this discussion. Let’s agree that his tweets are mean, that he’s not a conservative ideologue, that he says dumb things and gets into useless fights, and that he does many other unseemly and annoying things. Let’s agree that this is all true. Let’s concede that in normal times, one might want to forgo supporting a guy like that. But these aren’t normal times.” – Kurt Schlichter

DEI Cronyism and Woke Grifters – “How odd it is that America is wasting billions of dollars hiring DEI czars and electing woke politicians, who so often accuse others of a multitude of sins, largely as a way of enriching themselves.” – Victor Davis Hanson

Rep suggests black Americans shouldn’t pay taxes – “Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) suggested during an appearance on a recent “Black Lawyers Podcast” that “Black Americans should be exempt from paying taxes as a form of reparations.” Crockett, no relation to Davy, also said that blacks are owed “for the labor that was stolen and killed and all the other things.” I’m not sure what “and killed and all the other things” means, but whatever. I must admit that this is a unique proposal, I strongly doubt, however, that any government will sign off on anything that could reduce its revenue. At this point, it’s more likely that it would simply double the tax rate for white people or Christians. (Quadruple the tax rate for white Christians?)” – Eric Utter

What CNN Didn’t Tell Its Audience About the Police Shooting of Dexter Reed Jr. – “Don’t give me none of your noise about “racial profiling.” Approximately 78% of homicide victims in Chicago are black, and nearly all of them are killed by other black people. So if you want to stop black people from being murdered in Chicago, you’re going to have to focus on getting black criminals off the street. Dexter Reed was awaiting trial on gun charges, and the terms of his pretrial release would prohibit him from possessing a weapon. Ergo, the cops had good reason to be investigating Reed, who happened to be carrying a pistol. He opened fire on the cops, emptying the 11-round magazine, then left the gun in the car and tried to make a run for it. He did not run far, ” – Robert Stacy McCain

From OnlyFans to Born Again Christian? – “Why we should be rejoicing at Nala Ray’s spiritual conversion, not hating on it. Nala Ray says she made $9 million performing on OnlyFans before she left sex work and became a Christian.There was some fuss about the baptism, particularly on social media, as if Ray was the first sex worker who gave up the seedy industry and embraced the Gospel. This is hardly true, of course.One needn’t approve of her previous lifestyle to celebrate her newfound faith. But nor should it be used against her. One of the primary tenets of the Christian faith is the idea of redemption. We’re all fallen. We’re all sinful. But we are redeemed through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. ” – Jon Miltimore

There Is Only One Spaceship Earth – “Men like Joe Biden and his chief diplomat Antony Blinken confess to being disturbed, even shocked, by the devastation our bombs deliver. Who knew Israel would use them to kill or wound more than 100,000 Palestinians? Who knew that they’d reduce significant parts of Gaza to rubble? Who knew that a blank check of support for Israel would enable that country to — it’s hard not to use the phrase — offer a final solution to the Gaza question? Not to be outdone by the Democrats, Republican Congressman Tim Walberg of Michigan recently cited the examples of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in seeking a “quick” end to the conflict in Gaza (before walking his comments back somewhat). For him, Israel remains America’s greatest ally, whatever its actions, even as he argues that Palestinians in Gaza merit no humanitarian aid from the United States whatsoever.” – Bill Astore

GOLD AND SILVER ENTERING EXPONENTIAL PHASE – “What most people, including experienced investors, don’t understand is that gold doesn’t increase in value. Gold just maintains stable purchasing power. A Roman toga 2000 years ago cost 1 ounce of gold and a tailored suit today also costs 1 ounce of gold. So it is really totally wrong to talk about gold going up when it is the unit we measure gold in that goes down. Just as all fiat money has done Just take gold measured in US dollars. As the illustration below shows, the value of the dollar since 1971 has crashed, measured in real terms which is gold.” – Egon von Greyerz
