THE BIG PICTURE

The Chain of Custody: The “Mafia” Holding The Elite’s Bitcoin – “The companies poised to dominate the digital financial infrastructure of Latin America have arisen courtesy of the self-described “mafia” multiplier, Endeavor. Flush with funds from billionaires linked to the US intelligence and organized crime, Endeavor’s influence over the CEOs it has championed promises that, with the ushering in of a new financial system, a wave of covert dollarization will shortly follow.” – Mark Goodwin and Whitney Webb

Biometrics, electronic devices and identity credentials converging – ” Google is putting new fingerprint scanners with Qualcomm and Suprema technology in its flagship smartphone, and Fingerprint Cards has booked a volume order for enterprise security keys, while mobile driver’s licenses take one step forward and one step back in the U.S., the UK grapples with the possibilities of digital ID,” – Chris Burt

Earesistible Trajectories – “All I know for certain is that whatever official story emerges will be as convoluted and backasswards as the Las Vegas shooting, 9/11, Covid, October 7th, Lahaina, Uvalde, Sandy Hook, hell, just about every engineered mass atrocity either orchestrated or permitted to happen. I also know that if the “deep state” really wanted Trump’s brains splattered across a stage on live TV, they wouldn’t miss. They could take him out any time they wanted. I only suspect this may have been an attempt to do that via Patsy, but something went wrong by luck, accident, or intentionally. We won’t know which for some time. Because there is only one type of mistake at a rally for a leading Presidential candidate who is beloved by a hundred million Americans just two days removed from the Republican convention… …the kind that is ordered.” – The Good Citizen  – THE GOOD CITIZEN WEIGHS IN AND BOY DOES HE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The So-Called Trump Shooting: Everything it Seems Is a Fraud! – “Maybe what I am about to say will greatly upset many, but so be it. The entirety of this fiasco stated as an assassination attempt on Trump is not only questionable, but ludicrous. I, or anyone who had ever fired a rifle, and from a prone position, would never miss a large target at 130 yards. I could hit a silver dollar from that range with every shot. Something is amiss here; actually everything is amiss, but the headlines of the likely planted stories fit right into place.” – Gary D. Barnett

I Fear for Our Nation – “My fear is that we’ve entered another 20 years of tumult, chaotic conflict, infectious madness and discord, but without the resilience we possessed in the 1960s and 1970s, ” – Charles Hugh Smith – GOOD READ FROM CHARLES!!

A Time of Shame and Sorrow: When It Comes to Political Violence, We All Lose – “There’s a subtext to this assassination attempt on former President Trump that must not be ignored, and it is simply this: America is being pushed to the brink of a national nervous breakdown. More than 50 years after John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., and Robert F. Kennedy were assassinated, America has become a ticking time bomb of political violence in words and deeds. Magnified by an echo chamber of nasty tweets and government-sanctioned brutality, our politically polarizing culture of callousness, cruelty, meanness, ignorance, incivility, hatred, intolerance, indecency and injustice have only served to ratchet up the tension.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

A Cursory Review Of What Makes No Sense Around Would Be Trump Assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks – “Who Was Thomas Matthew Crooks? Somebody noted on X: “He was the only 20 year old in America with no social media.” Yet he has turned up in a Blackrock commercial, now deleted. “Laura Loomer” somehow unearthed a Blackrock ad featuring Thomas Matthew Crooks. Now that is a match: Original Thomas and the boy in the (now pulled) Blackrock ad. But how did “Laura Loomer” find it? Who can find a needle in a haystack like that within 24 hours of an attempted assassination? Unless, of course, they are using their free time reviewing old Blackrock ads in case they find Trump’s would be assassin in the clip. Am I too “cynical?”” – Celia Farber  – MAXWELL YEARICK LOOKS A LOT MORE LIKE THE DEAD SHOOTER THAN CROOKS, NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY!!!

Assassination Attempt: Secret Service Breakdowns w/ Blackwater’s Erik Prince (VIDEO) – PBD Podcast

Hanlon’s razor: unpacking plotlines on Butler – “Malice or incompetence? obviously ideas are swirling about “How could this have happened” around the Trump assassination attempt. How did some goofus with seemingly no meaningful training get 125m from the stage with a rifle and sit atop the most obvious roof vantage in the whole setup while not being noticed? Are these people really that stupid? The answer, unfortunately, is yes, perhaps they are. None of what follows disproves any plot (this is basically impossible as you cannot prove a negative) but it does provide what to my mind is a reasonable and plausible theory of what happened. It is, like everyhting at this point, speculative, But it’s my best current working theory and it seems to hang together. ” – El Gato Malo

There Was a Conspiracy to Assassinate Trump – “But not in the conventional sense. I thought that one of three things must be true: Everything was real but had occurred due to massive levels of incompetence; or Everything was real but had occurred due to to a deliberate conspiracy; or It was all fake, either staged by Trump to boost his campaign or staged by Biden’s team to stop people talking about his dementia or, as in the UK with Sunak, to deliberately lose the election. After watching the whole event numerous times and from numerous angles, I came to the conclusion that my senses were correct and the shooting was real. That left options 1 and 2, incompetence or conspiracy. With all that had happened both seemed equally likely.” – The Naked Emperor

Why they hate JD Vance – “Donald Trump’s vice-president is the future of American populism. A new bogeyman has emerged in US politics. His name is James David ‘JD’ Vance, and he will be the kind of villain JR Ewing from Dallas was in the 1980s. Only this won’t be a baddie you love to hate – you’re meant to just hate him.” – Daniel McCarthy

What Biden Has Done for Palestinians – “Joe Biden wants you to know about all the things he’s done for the Palestinian people: “By the way, I’m the guy that did more for the Palestinian community than anybody. I’m the guy that opened up all the assets. I’m the guy that made sure that – I got the Egyptians to open the border to let goods through, medicine, and food,” Biden said this during an interview in which he was being asked why Muslim and Arab-American voters should support his reelection. It seems that he thinks the pitiful amount of assistance in question should somehow outweigh and erase his responsibility for enabling the war and supporting the government that is deliberately starving more than two million people to death.” – Daniel Larison

ECONOMIC NEWS

Buying Dimes In a World Where the Dollar Makes No Sense – “I may be an economic luddite—even among luddites. I’ve never owned a stock—never invested in the miners. I’ve searched for the cheapest lots on the best streets and then built on them, without ever hiring a contractor. From my survey of human history, in both fiction and non-fiction, I made my bets, only on tangibles—real estate and metals.” – neverhadaboss.com  – GOOD READ FROM ERIK AS USUAL!!!

Inflation “Cooled” in June, So Why is Consumer Confidence Still Tanking? – “The recent CPI report showed that inflation is, according to official data, cooling down — so why are consumers more worried for the future than they’ve been in months? If prices are coming down, shouldn’t that fuel higher confidence and a greater collective sense of economic well-being? One simple answer is that the official data is cooked,” – Peter Schiff

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

The Morality of Self-Defense – “Desperate people, it is said, do desperate things; and in the wake of a disaster, when there will be shortages of everything we need. Those shortages, it is widely believed, will cause the average person on the streets and in our neighborhoods to become desperate. As a result of that desperation, they are likely to attack anyone who they think has the supplies that they need. Worse than that, there’s a good chance of them ganging together to make those attacks.” – Bill White

The Biggest Enemies of Long-Term Food Storage (It’s Not Looters) – “As preppers are well aware, preparing your home and family for long-term crises and emergencies involves accumulating a substantial food supply. When it comes to protecting a large food supply, many people focus on the threat of looters and marauders. However, the true enemies of your food supply are likely to be far less dramatic. Whether you’re putting up the food you bought at the store or produce from your own organic garden, a full pantry represents a significant investment of time and money. Protecting it from these six food storage enemies takes planning, patience, and persistence:” – Nancy S
