THE BIG PICTURE
The Politics of Disobedience: Just Say NO to REAL ID Before October 15, 2024 – “So what’s wrong with REAL ID? It’s just a convenient way of identifying yourself, right? Yes, it’s convenient. It’s also unconstitutional, tyrannical, an infringement on our privacy, a threat to our freedom, a violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and a digital prison—especially when combined with biometric surveillance, AI, facial recognition technology, and the global panopticon the technocrats have gotten the inmates to build” – Margaret Anna Alice – GOOD READ FROM MARGARET ANNA ALICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now We Know Who Runs Bartertown – “Elon Musk has become a darling of the opposition to the Left, which is interesting given Elon’s EV grift is so beloved by the Left. Also interesting is that Elon is hailed as the savior of Free Speech, supposedly because he allows it on the platform that used to be called Twitter that now goes by X. But only if you pay for it. And only if you don’t say mean things, even if they happen to be true. Elon’s commitment, then, is to money – as if he needed more. Now Elon has openly revealed his faux commitment to free speech by caving in to the Marxists who control Brazil, who demanded X censor anyone the Marxist who control the government of Brazil decide hurts their feelings by saying mean things about them – irrespective of the truth. Initially, Elon balked. The Marxists then shut down X in Brazil, which no doubt cost Elon some shekels. That led to Elon folding. He agreed to censor mean Tweets – or whatever one calls them now that it’s X – even if true.” – Eric Peters
Bedard: From Covid Amnesty to Covid Amnesia – “With a wave of his hand, Obi-Wan Kenobi made thoughts and suspicions disappear. When it comes to Covid, it is what the pharmaphorcedcopulation conglomeration is trying to do right now. Well, no. In a recent piece in the New York Times, Dr. Rachel Bedard – who specializes in “medicine and criminal justice” – said the world needs to move on from the whole Covid catastrophe, the pandemic response, and the wholesale destruction of liberties. In complaining about the possibility that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. will be appointed by a – horrors! – potential Donald Trump administration,” – Thomas Buckley – OF COURSE THE NY SLIME AND COVIDIANS WANT TO MOVE ON, THEY ARE SCARED KENNEDY MIGHT DIG A LITTLE DEEPER!. BUT THAT’S HARD TO SAY TOO!!
Coincidence or Not, the Storms Mark the Beginning of the Most Impactful Days for America – “The world will change on (or around) Election Day, 2024. It is on this day that it will be declared whether the United States will continue to exist as an exceptional nation or if our time as the world’s beacon of hope has come to an end. That is not hyperbole. As I have noted in my writing and on my show, we will not remain intact if Kamala Harris is installed as President of the United States. To use a boxing analogy, we have already been weakened with an onslaught of body blows under the Biden-Harris regime. The Globalist Elite Cabal will be able to easily land a haymaker if Kamala takes the reins. It will be sudden and it will be final. That’s why the timing of TWO “storms of the century” is conspicuous. I’m willing to accept a small percentage chance that it’s just a coincidence. But there are two theories that seem far more likely; at least they do with my “conspiracy theorist” mentality.” – JD Rucker
Florida Officials Warn of Electric Vehicle Fires Sparked by Hurricane Milton – “Florida officials have urged electric vehicle owners to park on higher ground as Hurricane Milton’s floodwaters threaten to cause EV battery fires.” – Chase Smith – JUST ONE MORE REASON TO HAVE AN EV, RIGHT!!!!!!!!
Who owns your shiny new Pixel 9 phone? You can’t say no to Google’s surveillance – “Every 15 minutes, Google Pixel 9 Pro XL sends a data packet to Google. The device shares location, email address, phone number, network status, and other telemetry. Even more concerning, the phone periodically attempts to download and run new code, potentially opening up security risks” – Ernestas Naprys
Detonate the Stack – “Things I know but cannot “prove”” – Sage Hana
Melinda Gates Announces Massive Feminist ‘Philanthropy’ Drive, Papers Over Prior Crimes Against Women – “Unsatisfied with the quantity of abortions currently performed in the Western world, particularly with the recent Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe vs. Wade, Bill Gates’ ex-wife, Melinda Gates, has announced a quarter-billion giveaway to boost numbers. The world, after all, is not going to depopulate itself.” – Ben Bartee
Mainstream media continues to act as the marketing arm of Big Pharma – “Why bite the hand that feeds you? Many, many people I know are on ozempik (or similar medication), or otherwise talking about trying it. To me, the rapid rise of this product to blockbuster status epitomises everything that is wrong about our relationship to health, and Big Pharma in particular.” – Jonathan Engler
Slovakia Defies Global Covid Agenda: Moves to Ban mRNA Vaccines Amid Rising Dissent – Amy Mek
Old Farts in Carhartts—a.k.a., Pants on the Ground – “Why, I have to ask, has it come to this?” – David Haggith – GOOD READ FROM DAVID ON THE LIGHTER SIDE. THE BIG PICTURE DOESN’T ALWAYS HAVE TO BE BAD YOU KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NEWS
The Government Compels Silence Again – “When Congress enacted the Stored Communications Act of 1986 (SCA), it claimed the statute would guarantee the privacy of digital data that service providers were retaining in storage. The act prohibited the providers from sharing the stored data, and it prohibited unauthorized access to the data, commonly called computer hacking — except, of course, if the recipients or the hackers were working for the federal government. Just as it did with the Patriot Act of 2001 — which permits one federal agent to authorize another to conduct a search of stored data, without a judicially issued search warrant — the SCA permits judges to issue “orders” for searches without meeting the probable cause standard required by the Fourth Amendment.” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano
Picking Up The Pieces: Footage Shows Milton Pummeled Central Florida – Tyler Durden
Something NORMAL Happened– Fla Governor Ron DeSantis Reassures Citizens Before Hurricane Milton Makes Landfall: Over 50,000 Linemen From Across The US, 6000 Fla Guardsmen, 3000 From Other States 34 Search and Rescue Aircraft, 500 Tactical Vehicles: – “This Is The Largest Storm Mobilization In The History Of The State Of Florida.” – Celia Farber
Is FEMA a Slush Fund? – Martin Armstrong
Harris calls DeSantis ‘selfish’ when Florida needs help, not political games – “In response to Harris’ attack, the governor went on Fox News and said the vice president “has no role in this” and hasn’t bothered to reach out during prior hurricanes. “In fact, she’s been vice president for three and a half years,” DeSantis said. “I’ve dealt with a number of storms under this administration. She has never contributed anything to any of these efforts.” He also said he’s dealt with storms under both former President Donald Trump and Biden and has worked fine with both of them. “She’s the first one who’s trying to politicize the storm, and she’s doing that just because of her campaign,” DeSantis said. “I don’t have time for political games.” – Ingrid Jacques – THAT SHOULD TELL YOU STRAIGHT UP WHAT KIND OF LEADER SHE WOULD BE!!!
A Focused Ron DeSantis Just Eviscerated Kamala Harris (VIDEO) -Sundance – DESANTIS’ EXCELLENT RESPONSE TO CNBC ABOUT THE STORY ABOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Getting to know Mamala – “Is Kammy getting shown the underside of the bus? On the one hand, we saw the 60 minutes edits of Kammy to try to prop her up. On the other, The hit just keep coming and the snippets of unedited interview are startling. They must know what they are putting out. The woman is a full blown informercial for a word salad spinner.” – El Gato Malo
‘Spliced’? 60 Minutes Under Fire For Deceptively Editing Kamala Harris Interview; Trump Demands Full Release – “CBS has come under fire for deceptively editing Kamala Harris’ “60 Minutes” interview – replacing her word-salad answer from a pre-interview teaser with a completely different answer in the version that aired.” – Tyler Durden
CRINGE VIDEO: Gretchen Whitmer, in a Camo Harris-Walz Cap, Feeds Doritos to a Woman on Her Knees – “Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D, of course) is the latest elected official to make a complete mockery of her position and her constituents, The video was posted to Instagram by feminist journalist Liz Plank and shows Whitmer, wearing a camo Harris-Walz ball cap and a stern facial expression, feeding Doritos (Kamala’s favorite) to Plank, who’s kneeling on the floor and dressed like a schoolgirl. The caption says, “If he won’t, Big Gretch will.”” – Jennifer Van Laar

Trump is making a mistake that could cost him the presidency – “The Republican is supposed to be anti-war and anti-interventionist, but keeps making a glaring exception for Israel” – Rachel Marsden
Israeli Snipers Routinely, Deliberately Shoot Palestinian Kids In The Head – “The evidence is undeniable, and the sourcing is as solid as it gets. There are mountains upon mountains of rock solid proof that Israeli forces routinely, deliberately shoot Palestinian children in the head in Gaza.” – Caitlin Johnstone – AND YET SOME PEOPLE WILL CONTINUE TO ARGUE THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS AND THEY DESERVE IT BECAUSE OF OCT 7. GO FIGURE. HOW ANYONE WHO BELIEVES IN GOD, NO MATTER WHAT SIDE THEY ARE ON, CAN CONTINUE TO DO THESE ATROCITIES IS BEYOND ME!!!!!
American Neocons Get Their Iran War as Congress Sleeps – “Over the weekend, the Commander of the US Central Command (CENTCOM), General Michael Kurilla, arrived in Israel to “coordinate” with the Israeli military and plan a military strike against Iran. Think about that for a moment: one of the highest-ranking officers in the US military is planning a war in a foreign country against another foreign country which will be fueled by American weapons, American intelligence, and American tax dollars. Did that foreign country – Iran – attack the United States or threaten Americans? No, it did not.” – Ron Paul
If Tehran Is Turned Into a Parking Lot, Israel Will be Soon to Follow – “For Israel to achieve its regional ambitions, it must lure the US into a war with Iran. In order to accomplish that feat, Israel must strike Iran with enough force to provoke a violent and destructive retaliation. As soon as it looks like Israel is in trouble, the US will ride to the rescue with “guns blazing”. ” – Mike Whitney
Lavrov’s Interview With Newsweek Concisely Summarized Russia’s Positions – “This might be the first time that average Americans read a top Russian official’s views without a filter. It’s rare nowadays for Russian officials to give interviews to Western media, both because the first suspect that their words won’t be accurately reported while the second fear being “canceled”, which is why it’s so important that Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov just gave a written interview to Newsweek.” – Andrew Korybko
How the U.S. Government Deceives the World – “I’ll let the documentation tell the story here, which story is about what started the war in Ukraine, taking that as the case for discussion here because the likeliest conflict to produce a world-destroying World War Three (WW3) would be further expansion of the war between Russia and America’s NATO that has been going on in the battlefields of Ukraine; and, so, what follows is documenting exactly how this war actually started:” – Eric Zuesse
ECONOMIC NEWS
Chaos is Coming (VIDEO) with John Rubino – “There are so many parts of the economy that are quietly facing huge trouble and big losses. Nothing could start a total all-sector market crash faster than an attack by Israel on Iran’s nuclear sites. ” – Greg Hunter – JOHN ON THE ECONOMY AND THE BIGGER PICTURE AS WELL!!!!!!!!!!
Global. Synchronized. Recession – “The global economy is unraveling right before our eyes, and it’s time we acknowledged the truth: we are in a recession. No, not just a downturn, not just a slowdown—this is a full-blown recession, and the data bears it out. From credit card shutdowns and weakening consumer confidence to deteriorating labor markets across the world, every indicator points towards a looming and potentially prolonged economic crisis. What we’re seeing now isn’t just the usual cyclical dips; it’s the sign of something far more sinister.” – Justin Hart
CPI Good News on Shelter and Energy But Food Jumps – “The CPI was a mix of good and bad in September. The good outweighs the bad especially for renters. But what’s ahead?” – Mish
Bond Market Smells a Rat: On Eve of CPI Inflation Data, 10-Year Treasury Yield Jumps to 4.08%, +43 bps since Monster Rate Cut – “”Fed is seen as deprioritizing inflation fight, while a tsunami of supply heads for markets. – Wolf Richter
Let The Economy Roll – “Maybe the primary complaint against Kamala Harris is that voters don’t know who she is nor where she stands on issues, given her flip-flopping-for-votes campaign. But we can be sure that her instincts are to bridle the economy rather than unleash it. Not many weeks ago, we argued that Harris’ Marxist roots, from both her mother and father, inform her economic positions. It should be kept in mind whenever looking at her economic proposals.” – I & I Editorial Board
Silver’s Potential Amid Economic Shifts – Mike Maharrey
Bottom in Gold & Silver – “Despite the slightly higher than expected CPI numbers across the board, a rate cut of 25 bp on Nov. 7 has a probability of 84-87%, a virtual certainty according to interest rate futures. Silver is having trouble getting above $31.25 as I type. But once through there, I’m looking for a new higher high above $33.23, around $35-$36. Support remains at $30. A break below there and all bets are off. Simply put, the stars are aligning for higher highs in the metals and miners alongside lower bond yields and a lower DXY. Only a break of $2600 in Gold and $30 in Silver negate this in the short term.” – David Brady
The Gold Bull Cycle Has Just Begun – “TThe problems facing the world are not going away anytime soon. Even if all the conflicts end tomorrow, and they won’t, we’re still facing a structural debt problem of unprecedented magnitude. Further conflict and spending will just add gas to the fire.” – Adam Sharp
When Did Our Institutions Lose Our Trust? – “This has now reached the point that corporations and institutions are in effect “mining what remains of our trust” to boost profits / private gains. We observe this mining the last of our trust for private gain everywhere. We are frogs in a simmering pot of water that is approaching the boiling point, and as we await the complete unraveling of the social order, we sigh You can’t stop Progress. Indeed.” – Charles Hugh Smith
SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY
Living Through Another Wave of Shortages – “Various prognosticators had already started spreading their message of doom, during the days leading up to the deadline and the few days of the strike itself. Had the longshoremen not come to agreement with the United States Marine Alliance, which represented the 36 ports affected by the strike, it could have gone on for weeks or even months. The head of the union had publicly declared that it was his intention to make the country suffer, if he didn’t get his way. But the real message here isn’t about the differences of opinion between workers and management, or what a “fair wage” actually is; the real message is that at any point in time, we’re only one step away from disaster in our supply chain. Those longshoremen aren’t the only ones who could shut things down, making it hard for everyone. According to some sources, all it would have taken would have been four weeks of those ports being shut down for entire industries to be closing their doors.” – Bill White – ESSENTIALLY THEY COULD STILL GO ON STRIKE AS WELL, SO THIS PARTICULAR SCENARIO IS FAR FROM OVER, JUST DELAYED A FEW MONTHS!!!!!!!
8 Ways to Heat a Greenhouse – Heidi Hawthorn
How to Looter-Proof Your Survival Shelter – “Securing survival shelters will be paramount in the aftermath of a SHTF event. Undoubtedly, the primary survival strategy of those who had not prepared for SHTF will be to find those who did prepare and simply take their stuff. Suppose your family’s survival depended on stealing food from someone who has enough food stored away for years. Would you honestly let your daughter die of starvation because “Stealing is wrong?” If good people can be driven to do bad things, can you imagine what bad people will get up to in a post-SHTF world?” – Charl M
