THE BIG PICTURE

And Suddenly Things Change – “That two-by-four upside our country’s head you’ve been waiting to get whomped with? Looks like it’s landing now. We got a banger in 2008, but it didn’t make a much of an impression. Maybe you don’t even remember these people, but then Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson and Fed Chair Ben Bernanke came in like a code blue squad and hooked up the banks to an IV-drip speedball of cocaine and heroin, i.e., “money” that didn’t actually exist (a.k.a. “liquidity,” hallucinated capital), and that crew kept it coming for years.  And then Janet Yellen and her posse kept it coming with never-ending zero interest rate policy (ZIRP) until the national debt canceled America’s future. And that left Jerome Powell pretending there was a way out of this doom-loop.  The wait is over. Everything that can break is breaking: stock markets, bond markets, the galaxy of derivatives — bets on this and that, which will never be honored. Banks are next. Gold and silver are hanging in there for dear life just now, because they’re actually worth something. You understand this can’t play out like it did in 2008-9. The authorities are out of tricks and out of fake money. Oh, and you’ve probably noticed that World War Three is shaping up to kick off today.” – James Howard Kunstler  – A MUST READ FROM MR. KUNSTLER AS USUAL. THE ECONOMY IS DEFINITELY THE BIGGEST PART OF THE BIG PICTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Beginning Of The End – “The American markets are expected to open down as well. As with Europe, there are controls in place to prevent the markets from sliding too far too fast. This is determined by the Plunge Protection Team who protect the bankers. All of this got going last week when markets began to decline and then it was revealed that the world’s most bullish investor, Warren Buffet, was dumping stocks at an unprecedented rate over the last quarter. What happened to the American stock markets over the last half century is they went from being a place to bet on the economy and individual companies to a place to bet on the Global American Empire being the sole superpower. As long as the dollar remained the global currency and Washington controlled the rules of the global economy, there was only one bet to make. What we may be about to see is the canary in the coal mine fall off his perch, thus signaling the great reordering. Western economies evolved over the last half century on the assumption that Washington would control the global money supply. ” – The Z Man

Why Was Moderna Allowed to Use A Toxic mRNA Dose? – “One of the major problems facing mRNA technology was finding a dose that was strong enough to elicit the desired effect but simultaneously not unbearably toxic. Moderna in turn chose a dose that was 3.3X greater than what even Pfizer felt was safe enough to use. Since the vaccines hit the market, numerous datasets have shown the Moderna vaccine is roughly 50% more likely to injure recipients” – A Midwestern Doctor

Bill Gates Pushes for ‘Genetically Modified Insects’ in Human Food Supply – “Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is pumping millions of dollars into efforts to flood the human food supply with hyper-processed products made from “genetically modified insects.” Gates and his foundation have been investing in the development of the products while pressuring U.S. regulators to open up the floodgates for insect-based “foods” to be sold in American stores. The plan is not new, however, as Gates has been pushing for bugs to be fed to Americans for over a decade. The development of these products has been advanced with help from the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD).” – Frank Bergman  – GATES AND THE DOD WORKING TOGETHER ON THIS, HMMM. WHAT’S THE REAL MOTIVE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Netanyahu, and the Terrorist Zionists and U.S. Government, Should Be Damned! – “Zionist Israel is a terrorist state bent on genocide, warmongering, total destruction of peoples and cultures, and control and destruction of the U.S. and Middle East. The U.S. is also a terrorist state that is mostly controlled by, and in bed with, Zionist Israel. In fact, they are one and the same. Both countries work together as one, and thrive and survive on terrorism and the killing of innocents. There is absolutely nothing special or exceptional about Israel or America, quite the contrary is the case, as they are both murderous States with no regard for their own people or any others. It is high time that this certainty is pointed out, as all aggression by these governments and all those supporting these governments, should be eliminated by any means necessary.” – Gary D. Barnett

EVERYBODY KNOWS THE CAPTAIN LIED – “They have used every crisis they create to abscond with more of our liberties, freedoms, rights and wealth. In addition to the never-ending wars created around the globe to benefit their military industrial complex, their wars on poverty, drugs, terror, CO2, and covid have enriched them and their lackeys, while exacerbating the very things they declared war upon. None of these wars are meant to be won. Keeping the masses in fear and ignorance makes them easier to control. This has allowed them to implement their Great Reset new world order agenda, purposely destroying the social fabric of society by financing the invasion of our country by millions of 3rd world parasites; celebrating and encouraging our descent into degeneracy by jamming transgender mental illness down our throats as normal; glorifying the sexualization, mutilation, and trafficking of children; inciting violence, mayhem and lawlessness in our cities; and making the poor poorer, while further enriching the rich.” – Jim Quinn

Thoughts in the Clouds of War – “At what appears to be the dawn of the kinetic part of WWIII, it’s hard to focus on domestic politics, but domestic politics are world wide. The issues are no different in Sweden, Denmark, Ireland, UK, France, Italy or the U.S. The Western nations hate their pale, uninteresting people and favor browner, darker people. I don’t know why this is, ” – T.L. Davis

Americans Happily Give Away Their Country – “As millions of immigrant-invaders walk into America aided and abetted by the US government, the momentum grows to give them the vote. It works like this. Democrats have it set up that when immigrant-invaders apply for a driving license, which they are permitted to do, they are automatically registered to vote. The Democrats then vote the voter registrations. “This is one of the ways that Biden “won” the 2020 presidential election. – Paul Craig Roberts

A Crescendo of Fakery – “But this is an election year, and most of the fake news is fake political news. We’ve seen that our beloved democracy is largely fake. The bigger the scale, the bigger the fraud. ‘The People’ do not really control the US government. Instead, the insiders are in the driver’s seat. And they go where they want to go, not where the people want to go. So, it all comes together in a crescendo of fakery. Fake money. Fake interest rates. Fake conservatives. Fake liberals. Fake democracy. And a fake president! Stay tuned. ” – Bill Bonner

Why Trump Is No Longer the Clear Favorite – “On the surface, Kamala Harris is not a formidable candidate. None of this matters. A woman of color who uses power, even arrogantly or recklessly, is somehow always fighting privilege. It does not matter that blacks are recipients of government largesse. Kamala Harris fits seamlessly into the liberal mythology of people of color overcoming white racism. Her view that America is the “scene of a crime” against non-whites is widely shared. DEI works for Kamala Harris. She was a terrible candidate in the 2020 Democratic primaries. She won no states and Tulsi Gabbard ended her candidacy by attacking her record during debates. However, when black representative Jim Clyburn (D-SC) saved Joe Biden’s candidacy by endorsing him, he demanded blacks in positions of power. This was widely reported. President Biden himself said the White House’s efforts at diversity began with Vice President Harris. She would not be vice president if she did not tick the right boxes.” – Gregory Hood

Political Circus in an Age of Authoritarianism and Global War – Dr. Joseph Sansone

Selling the Russia-Ukraine War to Trump – “This Week in U.S. Militarism. During his one debate with Joe Biden, Donald Trump made the audacious claim that if reelected in November he would end the Russia-Ukraine War before his inauguration in January. While it’s doubtful he could do that, the boast certainly disturbed self-styled supporters of Ukraine like Senator Lindsey Graham.” – Bill Astore

Bloodthirsty super gang Tren de Aragua moves its HQ to outskirts of major US city – as fearful cops warn of telltale tattoos Americans should watch out for – “An AK-47 rifle tattoo on a suspected Tren de Aragua gang member who crossed into El Paso, Texas in April was shared by US Border Patrol. A crown, sometimes with the letters HJ, underneath it, is another well-known Tren de Aragua give-away ” – MaryAnn Martinez

Now we have Nannygate – “I must admit I was not terribly surprised to learn that Vice President Kamala Harris’s husband once had an affair with his children’s nanny and impregnated said nanny who may or may not have aborted this child. By now, I just assume every ultra-rich and powerful person in Club Elite engages in extra-marital affairs and then, if needed, tries to cover up these relationships. I also note that it was a UK newspaper, and not an American “watchdog” news organization, that finally broke this scandal – 15 years after all the beautiful people in Culver City knew about it.” – Bill Rice Jr.

Bangladesh Has Descended Into The Throes Of A Full-Blown Color Revolution – “The Hybrid War on Bangladesh is actually part of the broader Hybrid War on India that’s being waged by the US’ ruling liberal-globalists for ideological reasons.” – Andrew Korybko

Black Monday: Futures Plummet As VIX Hits 62, Japan Suffers Worst Point Drop In History – “Good morning and welcome to a global market meltdown, sparked by last week’s catastrophic BOJ decision to hike rates by 0.15bps which in turn crushed the $20 trillion yen carry trade, sent the yen exploding higher and wiping out trillions in highly levered investments, leading to a cascade of selling and forced liquidations which has resulted a historic market crash in Japan and a rout everywhere else. ” – Tyler Durden

Flattening Yield Curve is the Calm Before the Storm – “Americans are already struggling to feed their families and pay their bills, but having predicted every US recession since 1960, the flattening bond yield curve is speaking loud and clear that an “official” downturn is nearly inevitable. With bond prices on the rise as the Fed looks increasingly likely to cut rates in September, the yields are going down and the inverted curve is finally leveling out after an epic two-year inversion. And with stocks now crashing around the world, global uncertainty is rocketing upward in a “Black Monday” event, especially as dizzyingly volatile Japan struggles to contain its post-ZIRP doom loop. In other words, the storm may be arriving in earnest.” – Peter Schiff
