THE BIG PICTURE

Death of the Middle Class – “The middle class is obviously being priced out of existence. The new elite is the old upper middle class. This is essentially a no brainer, anyone who has tried to go to a restaurant in the past year or so knows this. Anyone who has bought groceries or gas for their car knows this. We all have been hit by it, but few of us know the truth regarding “why.” Well, even that is obvious, but few people (sheep) want to admit it because it would make us (shrews) right, and them (sheep) wrong. And we can’t have that, can we? “So, what is the reason behind this madness? Ultimately the agenda aims to squeeze the useless eaters (us) into a deeper compliance. – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP  – VERY GOOD READ FROM TODD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Chain of Issuance: The People and Patents That Built The Financial Surveillance Network – “The patent hoarding developers and investors associated with PayPal and Google who built the first iteration of e-commerce and digital advertising have turned to the blockchain to fulfill their vision of total financial surveillance and the circumnavigation of government-issued money.” – Mark Goodwin and Whitney Webb

Globalists outline world govt pathway: 75% population reduction, global truth commission, earth system currency, revised UN Charter – “Unelected globalists want to rewrite the UN Charter so that it ‘could articulate the rules of a World Parliament‘ for ‘world citizens‘ with binding legislative & enforcement powers that eliminate State sovereignty: perspective” – Tim Hinchliffe

The Party Line Is a Mighty Squishy Line – “Does anybody know what this shape-shifting chimera passed off as “our democracy” actually is? I will tell you. Like everything else in the Democratic Party’s tool-bag these days, it’s the opposite of what it appears to mean, namely: You, the demos, give us, officialdom, the power to take whatever we like from you: your savings, your liberty, your stuff, your identity, and your posterity — because we are the boss-of-you, and don’t you forget it. . . and, by the way, the beatings will continue until morale improves. It’s really that simple, though the deceptions cooked up to hide it are convoluted to the max. Like: engineering the illegal entrance to the US of millions from other lands and then using procedural hocus-pocus such as motor-voter registration and public assistance applications (free money + automatic voter registration) to stuff the election drop-boxes with the ballots of non-citizens — who, get this, don’t even have to be the ones casting those ballots, which can just be harvested, like so many oven-ready pullets, by lowly hired shills.” – James Howard Kunstler

Don’t Go Thinking You Know How This Plays-Out – “What dangers lurk out there? Economy collapse—that’s a for sure. We go to war with China? Possibly, but that one may take some time. NATO (at US behest), goes to war with Russia in Ukraine? That’s still likely, but more iffy with passing days. Russia and the US at war over Palestine? Only economic collapse is more certain than that one. What about the possibility Kamila Harris becomes the 47th president of the US? Pundits dwell on Kamila being the worst candidate ever and she may well be. Nevertheless, do we get to see the inauguration of Kamila, who, unqualified as Biden, insists she gets her turn in the Oval Office. And without a proper election, she’s now selected.” – neverhadaboss.com  – GOOD READ FROM ERIK ONCE AGAIN!!!

Our Three Silent Mice – “The president, the Democratic presidential candidate, and the vice presidential nominee all either cannot or will not speak casually and publicly to elected representatives, reporters, or the people.” – Victor Davis Hanson

DEEP FAKE: CIA & Election Manipulation Going MASSIVE – “Kamala is NOT drawing crowds; the marketing campaign of the liberals is superior unfortunately, but conditioned on $Money. She ‘stole’ Biden’s campaign fund of roughly $250,000,000. Walzing Katilda is definitely something out of Alice’s Wonderland. Walz dances around as though he thinks he’s been anointed King! Katilda yaks but the words form a circular pattern that means nothing. We were warned a year ago that AI would play a huge magic act on the elections. And not in a positive way. SO the puppets, are literal puppets, they are not alive, they are a distraction. WHY if Kamikins was the anointed President, why didn’t she invoke the get out of dodge amendment and declare Biden unfit? She could have stepped into her royal seat on the throne right then? Something missing. This would have been the easier means of creating a coup, so why make it harder?” – Helena Glass

A Harris-Walz Administration Would Be A Nightmare for Free Speech – “For over three years, the Biden-Harris administration has sustained an unrelenting attack on the freedom of speech, from supporting a massive censorship system (described by a federal court as an “Orwellian Ministry of Truth“) to funding blacklisting operations targeting groups and individuals with opposing views. President Biden made censorship a central part of his legacy, even accusing social media companies of “killing people” for failing to increase levels of censorship. Democrats in Congress pushed that agenda by demanding censorship on subjects ranging from climate change to gender identity — even to banking policy — in the name of combatting “disinformation.”” – Jonathan Turley

Tyranny in the UK – Can it Happen Here? – “As the UK descends into tyranny, where just re-Tweeting something the government doesn’t like can land a person a multi-year jail sentence, Americans are wondering, “can it happen here?” After all, we have the guarantees of the First Amendment. But while we shake our heads at UK authorities jailing people for their social media posts this past week, we should not kid ourselves. The answer is that silencing dissent can happen here and it is happening here. Here are just three recent examples of how the “deep state” or the permanent government is conspiring to restrict political dialogue in the United States.” – Ron Paul

COUNTDOWN TO WW3 – “Tik Tok. The countdown continues. The countdown began in September 2008, with the outset of this Fourth Turning. Everything that has happened in the last sixteen years has led to this point in history. In the past week we have seen Ukraine/US/NATO invade Russia, then bomb a nuclear power plant, provoke Belarus, and try to goad Putin into a response which will enable them to openly go to war with Russia. Meanwhile, Israel assassinated the one Hamas leader (in Iran) trying to negotiate a peaceful resolution to their war, knowing this would provoke Iran to respond in a way that will make the Israel controlled US Congress go to war with Iran. As a cherry on top, Israel and the US keep bombing Syria, ” – Jim Quinn  – COULD THINGS BE ANY ROSIER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The 1948 Irgun re-born? – “Isn’t it time that the western ruling structures raised their eyes from their reverie, and read the runes that manifest all around them? The signposts are there for all to read: The West – in deliberately overlooking such explicit markers – cannot then complain, or escape, the ensuing consequences. No, the ‘tin ear’ is not some new western derangement – a unique mass collapse of sanity – that we are living through. It is something worse: a return to a dogmatic, authoritarian version of truth…” – Alastair Crooke

Trump Doesn’t Want to ‘Go to Tehran’- “When it comes to Iran and the nuclear deal, Trump is the chief arsonist. It is silly to expect him to put out the fire he set and then rebuild the structures he destroyed. He doesn’t want to do it, he isn’t going to do it, and no one seriously believes that it is even on the agenda. No one should believe that Trump is serious when he says that he would have made a “fair deal” with Iran. The U.S. had a deal with Iran that was extremely advantageous, and Trump tore it up for no good reason. Nothing he says about negotiating with Iran can be taken at face value.” – Daniel Larison

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

A Prepper’s Dilemma – “Normally, it is sound policy to live below your means; to buy only that which you can afford to pay for – at the time of purchase. But we no longer live in normal times and I find myself giving thought to violating the policy I’ve lived by since I began my adult working life. The why has to do with what’s available – as well as what might be coming. More finely, what is almost certainly coming – irrespective of the outcome of the pending (s)election. If Hombre Naranja is (s)elected, somehow, it is almost certain there will be insurrections – this time, real ones – all over the country. It’s already being planned. The Left will not abide “democracy” when it does not result in what the Left wants. I am considering an apocalypse vehicle. Specifically, a 1991 export market (JDM) right-hand-drive Toyota Land Cruiser with a mechanically injected diesel engine and a manual transmission and manual 4WD. It does not have “active” anything, unless I activate it. ” – Eric Peters  – GOOD READ FROM ERIC (MY FAVORITE CAR GUY) AS USUAL. THIS ARTICLE COULD HAVE FIT IN SEVERAL CATEGORIES, BUT IN ESSENCE.

Psalm 65:5-7    By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:  Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power:  Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.
