THE BIG PICTURE

Smart phones as smart munitions? – “War just got a bit more personal. Someone seems to have found the network and managed to cause all the pagers in it to overheat and explode at once to grim effect for those who had them in pockets. Let’s put aside the specific tactical geopolitics here (and if folks want to argue about that, i’m sure there are 100 online venues that would be happy to engage.) instead, i’d like to speak more generally about what this means from a tactical standpoint for pretty much every denizen of the developed world:You all just got tagged onto the battlefield. And you should know about it.” – El Gato Malo

Where Is America on the Dupe-O-Meter? – “Is it just me or has stupidity shifted into overdrive? The fact is that most people I meet, if they’re wrong about 1 thing (political/economic), they tend to be wrong about everything. With elite lies/propaganda, whatever flag gets run up the pole, most-all salute. In my town, among the uninformed, a little joke makes its way around about Trump suggesting Haitians eat pets. The frolickers don’t realize the joke is on them—intended to have them look away from the realities. As in: Great Replacement Job Shock: 1.3 Million Native-Born Americans Just Lost Their Jobs, Replaced By 635,000 Immigrants. These folks are also unaware that New Hampshire parents are suing to end a mandate that LGBXYZ-inclusive storybooks be read to elementary school students, promoting gender transition, pride parades, and same-sex romance between children.” – neverhadaboss.com  – ANOTHER GOOD ONE FROM ERIK!!!!!!!!!!

America Is Being Absolutely Ripped Apart By Hate, And The End Result Will Be Unparalleled Chaos In Our Streets – Michael Snyder

Don’t Trust the Government. Not with Your Privacy, Property or Your Freedoms – “Consider for yourself. Don’t trust the government with your privacy, digital or otherwise. In the more than two decades since 9/11, the military-security industrial complex has operated under a permanent state of emergency that, in turn, has given rise to a digital prison that grows more confining and inescapable by the day. Wall-to wall surveillance, monitored by AI software and fed to a growing network of fusion centers, render the twin concepts of privacy and anonymity almost void. By conspiring with corporations, the Department of Homeland Security “fueled a massive influx of money into surveillance and policing in our cities, under a banner of emergency response and counterterrorism.”” – John & Nisha Whitehead

Chaos Blankets the World and Leaves No Easy Answers – “It’s hot and ugly on the war front today. Israel just ingeniously (evil genius?) found a way to maim a few-thousands people by blowing up their pagers, knocking their nuts off, ripping their bowels out, blowing a leg off and sometimes killing a few, including people merely standing nearby. While the target was Hezbollah, and the only pagers blown up apparently belonged to Hezbollah members, it’s unclear how many of the wounded were actual Hezbollah fighters. It sounds like many were, but when you make 2700+ pagers blow up simultaneously in marketplaces and wherever the people happen to be, some are are going to be standing next to their little daughters who get taken out or mutilated in the blast, too” – David Haggith

To Many, the Justice Dept. Is Honoring Political Neutrality in the Breach Again – “Attorney General Merrick Garland broke precedent just weeks before the November election, delivering politically charged remarks at the U.S. Attorneys’ National Conference in Washington – pointedly speaking publicly rather than privately in a departure from his usual practice. AP Merrick Garland, Attorney General: “We will not allow this department to be used as a political weapon.” AP “Our norms are a promise that we will not allow this department to be used as a political weapon,” he said before a packed house, Moreover, in the view of many, his assertions clearly belie the Justice Department’s deeds. These critics say it’s obvious that the FBI and DOJ have repeatedly put a thumb on the scale of justice to defeat Trump.” – Julie Kelly

Small Town Alabama Residents Silenced For Questioning Sudden Flood Of Haitian Migrants – “One such town is Sylacauga in Alabama with a tiny population of 12,236 people southeast of Birmingham.

Sylacauga city council member Laura Barlow Heath says she’s worried Sylacauga will become the next Springfield. She criticized her colleagues after they abruptly shut down a council meeting when residents raised concerns over the overwhelming influx of migrants and she worries ‘civil unrest’ may be the result. ” – Tyler Durden

Say The Quiet Part Out Loud: Powellnomics Is Not Working – ?Neither Is Kamalanomics” – Peter Nayland Kust

Why Does This Economy Feel So Weird?! – “Why isn’t the economy rolling over into recession? Every other week, an economic metric that has historically predicted multiple recessions goes off. Between this and the stock market’s volatility, stock market bears have plenty of ammunition for arguments that a crash or bear market is about to hit. On the flip-side of this, stocks simply refuse to break down. Every time the market appears to be on the verge of a significant collapse, stocks erupt higher. And other economic data appears to be quite strong. As a result of this, analysts trying to make sense of this situation end up either flip flopping on their forecasts… or appearing to be perma-bears or perma-bulls: investors who simply maintain the same perspective no matter what is happening. What’s the deal here? The deal is that this economic cycle is unlike any other in history. In the last five years the U.S. has experienced…” – Graham Summers, MBA  – ALSO COULD BE BECAUSE WE NEVER KNOW WHAT NUMBERS ARE TRUE OR NOT OR WHAT WILL BE REVISED!!!

Making Sure Your Data Survives – “So, while we’re making sure our families survive, it might be a good idea to make sure our lives survive as well, specifically our digital lives. The goal, after any of these disasters, has got to be getting our lives back to normal, or at least something that resembles the previous normal. That might mean a new normal, with significant changes from the old normal, but at least it will be a lifestyle that we can recognize, rather than living in a cave and foraging for edible plants. In order to restore our lives to some semblance of order, we’re going to need to get our digital lives back in order as well; and in order to do that, we’re going to need to plan for making sure that our digital lives survive.” – Bill White  – MOST PEOPLE DON’T LOOK AT THIS ASPECT!!!
