Nothing New Under The Sun 2016

THE BIG PICTURE

I Hate This, but Here Is My Initial Update on this Political Scam Called an ‘Election’ – ” Writing about politics is not only degrading, it means openly discussing the general public’s idiocy, but it is always a pain in the ass. But I feel I must make a few comments about the selection that has just taken place. Of course, Trump has once again been given the position of presidential power, and even the criminal Congress has apparently swung in that direction. As you know, I could not care less about who was bestowed by the powers that be this puppet position, but I did want to see the collapse happen sooner rather than later, so we could get on with a new slate. This may delay the inevitable in the short term; or maybe not. All those who voted, and all those who support this process, have once again solidified by voluntary action that they admit to being slaves to a master of their choosing, regardless of who that might be. No surprise, as I expected all along that the majority of choosers of their enslavement, would come out in droves, and of course they did just that. I wonder how many wrote down or captured and archived all the promises made by Trump. (Likely hundreds) If so, when accomplished, you could mark off each one remedied by your new ruler, but I would venture to say that you will need little or no ink to get through that process.” – Gary D. Barnett – GOOD ONE FROM GARY AS WELL AS KIT BELOW ON THE BIGGER PICTURE OF (S)ELECTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don’t buy the hype, 2024 is no 2016 – “So, Donald Trump is President-Elect. Again. His female opponent refused to appear to talk to her supporters and waited almost a day to give a concession speech. Again. Democrats are rending their garments wondering what happened. Again. MAGAheads are thirstily slurping up salty liberal tears. Again. We’re going to Make America Great Again. Again. I was never a Trump believer, but Clinton was unequivocally worse – than almost anything you can name – I get the impression the organizers of (S)election 2024 are well aware of that & were trying to recreate that energy, Groundhog Day fashion. We’ve also had four years of Trump already. Four years in which he not only spectacularly failed to “drain the swamp”, but also went right along with the Covid psyop and the vaccine rollouts and the lockdowns. All of it. The fact of the matter is Trump was either allowed to win, or made to win, and either way, it’s just further evidence he’s yet another compromised puppet.” – Kit Knightly

What If Voting Is Fruitless? – “What if you were allowed to vote only because it didn’t make a difference? What if no matter how you voted, the elites always got their way? What if the concept of one person/one vote was just a fiction created by the government to induce your compliance? ​What if democracy as it has come to exist in America today is dangerous to personal freedom?” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

To “Save Democracy,” Facebook Bans “Dictator” – “The demolition of free speech by social media companies such as Facebook is compounding the loss of trust in American institutions. If it is no longer safe to mention the word “dictator” regarding presidential candidates, the First Amendment will be worth less than the most noxious campaign promise. But at least Facebook will always have plenty of cute kitty photos.” – James Bovard

The WHO’s “Prequalification” and “Emergency Use Listing” Racket – “Are products that are approved, “Prequalified” or listed for emergency use (EUL) by the World Health Organization truly “safe and effective,” or is this just another corrupt, money-making racket?” – James Roguski

U.S. Pumps $667 Million Into World Bank’s Pandemic Fund – “The Pandemic Fund was established in 2022 by the member states of the G20. Its largest private contributor — at $15 million — is the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which also holds seats on the fund’s governing board.” – Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D

Starmer “wants to revive some of the crisis-era urgency that led to vaccine development being steamrolled through…” – “This headline caught my eye. The PM is going to take on the regulators. Has Starmer perhaps worked out that the regulatory system is totally broken, corrupted and hollowed out, driven by vested interests or ideology over safety? Don’t be daft. Not a bit of it – obviously. Translation: My corporate friends are demanding that I make sure our regulators don’t get in the way of them continuing to rape our taxpayers to pay for unnecessary and dangerous centralised solutions to the imaginary global crises which have proven so profitable in recent years.” – Jonathan Engler

Woke Bloodbath: Leftist Movements Are Paying The Price For Their Arrogance – “If you thought Kamala Harris was a sure win in 2024, then you haven’t been paying attention to the epic shift in the cultural zeitgeist over the past few years. The thing that bothers me most about political and social analysis is dealing with people who foolishly assume nothing ever changes. Things change all the time. People can and do learn from the past. Nothing is hopeless, and nihilists are lazy and incompetent. Regardless of what you might think of the candidates or the election in general, the fact of the matter is this election was a RESOUNDING rejection by Americans of the woke ideology and the political left. ” – Brandon Smith

The Signs Of The Next Times – “One of the weird things about how the American empire operates is that there is a long waiting period between the presidential election and the installation of the winner, if the winner is not the incumbent. In most countries with elections, the transition happens within a week or two of the election. In America, the new president has months to wait for his turn at the wheel and the outgoing administration has months to do their worst, often with the goal of hobbling the next president. The latter was on full display after the 2016 election. ” – The Z Man

A TRUMP WIN – Act 1 Completed. Acts II & III Forthcoming – “It Ain’t Over Til The Fat Lady Sings… ACT I: We Win The Election. We have 2 more months and can’t lose our heads – stay vigilant! We are not dealing with humans. Humans have souls. These people don’t. We are now in Act II: The claim that Russia interfered in the election is obviously a false flag for two agendas: 1. Calling a US waged war against Russia which by default will include all of the EU. The means? Merrick Garland touting Election interference by a foreign country. 2. A declaration of War could give them the opportunity to call for Martial Law. Trump can’t take office. Stay alert. It is difficult to believe they will simply fall down like toy soldiers. There is a fight coming. The CIA isn’t going to go down quietly. ” – Helena Glass

Trump’s Triumph and the Firing of Yoav Gallant – “Why was Trump Allowed to Win the Election? We know what happens when the deep state does not get the outcome it wants. All hell breaks loose, just like did following the 2016 elections. Try to remember what that was like. Try to remember the legal challenges and the lawsuits, the hectoring and name-calling, the spurious allegations of voter fraud and Russian meddling, and the overall discrediting of the electoral process. Try to recall the street protests, the angry antifascist mobs scuffling with cops and the relentless outbursts of rage directed at the “new Hitler”. Do you remember that? That’s what happens when the deep state does not get its way. Have you noticed that nothing similar to that display of manufactured rage has taken place in 2024? Have you noticed that the liberal media has been calling for calm and unity and that it is almost impossible to find a belligerent or hostile article aimed at Trump?” – Mike Whitney

So what now? – “The election didn’t go the way Democrats wanted. There are things that need to be done, and those things will set the stage going forward. There are also a lot of ways this can be screwed up and spell disaster going forward. But I do know that there are a lot of hardworking Americans out there right now who are trusting the Republican Party to make their lives better. They want lower grocery bills and an American Dream that’s attainable without the right six numbers on a lottery ticket. They want the southern border secured so that criminals from Mexico and points further south don’t come into the United States and rob, rape, and/or kill innocent Americans. In fact, crime is another issue they want addressed. Basically, if you look at everything that mattered to Americans in this election, they want their life to be made better. They had it pretty good under Trump, then it went off the rails starting with COVID and got worse under Biden and just kept getting worse.” – Tom Knighton

Russia, ‘Misinformation,’ White Women: Corporate Media Blames Everything Under Sun But Kamala – Ben Bartee

What Team Trump Must Do Now – “Free Advice on Derailing Derailment, From a Former Political Consultant. With the conclusion of the US election, the thrill has set in for half the country: that we have a chance to re-secure our nation and its ideals. The other half of the nation, however, is in shock and even in a state of mourning. Meanwhile, in only two days, the drumbeats of “resistance” from that half of the country have begun to sound: Rep Eric Swalwell encouraged his allies on X not to “Go[…] quietly”. This is dangerously inflammatory language, and it warns of a potential Democratic resistance to a peaceful transfer of power.” – Dr Naomi Wolf

It Does Matter “Who,” Democrats – “Democrats failed with the “vote blue no matter who” mantra. It does matter who. Kamala Harris was not a skilled politician, and she never truly distanced herself from Joe Biden. Also, too much of her campaign focused on Donald Trump rather than on who she was, her vision for the future, and how she was going to help the working classes. It’ll be interesting to see if the Democrats learn anything from this; sadly, my guess is no. Faced with that “choice,” Americans will tend to vote for what’s “real,” Classic Coke rather than New Coke.” – Bill Astore

Will Trump Buckle Again on the JFK Records? – Jacob G. Hornberger

The Meltdowns And The Tantrums Have Begun – Michael Snyder

Democrats Have Learned Nothing, Maybe They’re Too Stupid Too – “Well, that was fun, wasn’t it? I love a good election ending with Rachel Maddow being sad and Joy Reid angry. When people like that are having a bad day, America is having a good one. Weirdly, none of the people who’d clutched their pearls so tightly that their hands were fused to them had packed up their belongings and fled the country. The View is not planned to originate from Canada or Cuba, and Jimmy Kimmel is not moving to Europe or Mexico; life is continuing as before. The cast of MSNBC is upset, no doubt, but Comcast is unlikely to fire any of the personalities who’d spent the entire election lying to their viewers about how hated and feared Trump is and how loved Kamala Harris was.” – Derek Hunter

Trump Wins: What a Comeback – “A broad coalition emerges. What do you get when you combine an unpopular Democratic candidate and a poor economy? A bloodbath. A clean sweep of all swing states. A potential win of the popular vote. Kamala had a tough assignment. One that exceeded her abilities. How do you motivate voters without charisma? How to reassure voters with an economic plan when you wouldn’t do anything different than Biden? How do you convince voters that you’ll secure the border when you failed as “Border Czar”? How do you win a Presidential election when you spectacularly failed as a candidate in 2020? You can’t. (A rhetorical question – how did those ~20 million Democrat votes from 2020 just vanish??)” – Techno Fog

Here’s What Trump’s Peace Plan Might Look Like & Why Russia Might Agree To It – “Trump’s pledge to resolve the Ukrainian Conflict in 24 hours is unrealistic, but he’ll inevitably propose a peace plan at some point in time, thus raising questions about what it would look like and whether Russia would agree to it.” – Andrew Korybko

TRUMP DOUBLES DOWN ON CRYPTO. UPDATES: Stocks, Banks, Bitcoin, Crypto, Gold, Silver, MORE. (VIDEO) – Gregory Mannarino

Trump’s Triumph! – “It’s a sweep that the majority of exit polls showed was driven by deep economic discontent. The TRUTH is that the press and the Biden administration have mutilated statistics in order to literally paper over economic reality with what they write in their papers in order to create an illusion that this horrible economy is robust, and it didn’t sell. “What Americans knew in their gut was that, if the economy was robust, they wouldn’t be feeling the pain of inflation so deeply. Americans didn’t buy the garbage that AP has bought into because AP trusts the statistics put out by Biden. – David Haggith

Is the Alternative to Inflation Actually Worse? – “Inflation is a controversial topic among economists. They can’t always agree on the best ways to measure it, or even what causes it. They all agree on one thing, though. You’ll never believe why the so-called experts think inflation is a necessary evil… ” – Peter Reagan

Here’s Where Gold & Silver Stand After the Big Election – “Precious metals faced a challenging day following Donald Trump’s U.S. presidential election victory. Despite that, gold and silver’s bull market is still very much alive.” – Jesse Colombo

Silver Exchanges Would CLOSE If This Happened (VIDEO) with Bill Holter – “Bill Holter discusses the unsustainable trajectory of U.S. debt and its potential consequences for the economy. He emphasizes the importance of securing wealth in physical gold and silver, highlighting the risks of holding assets in the traditional financial system. Holter also touches on the real estate market, warning of a potential collapse in property values as credit tightens. Reflecting on past economic crises and current geopolitical trends, he suggests that countries like Russia and China are positioning themselves for a future where metals like silver and gold become central to global finance. Holter predicts that as the demand for precious metals rises, particularly from sovereign nations, the price of gold and silver will surge, driven by both supply constraints and the impending financial instability.” – Dunagun Kaiser (Liberty and Finance)

GOLD – BEST ASSET IN 2000s BUT YOU AIN’T SEEN NOTHING YET! – “There is a fine line between happiness and misery, as Dickens describes in David Copperfield. Copperfield’s landlord, Mr Micawber, was just on the wrong side of happiness by six pence. ” – Egon von Greyerz

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

How to Choose Hidden Storage Areas in Your Home [Part 1] – “These days, food supplies and other resources needed to survive and thrive are becoming unreliable. It is necessary to have hidden storage areas to keep your survival resources safe and secure from theft. With this in mind, you must build hidden storage areas that most people would not think of or find easily. When considering hidden storage areas, it is important to know which modern technologies might reveal them.” – Fred Tyrell

How to Build a Self-Feeding Fire – “A self-feeding fire is a bushcraft marvel that takes the outdoor experience to a new level, particularly when camping. It’s a strategically built fire set-up designed so the logs burn and collapse in a way that feeds the fire over time. What makes it truly remarkable is its ability to burn for several hours unattended, freeing up campers to focus on other tasks or enjoy a restful sleep.” – Perrin Adams

This Is Why You Should Watch Your Neighbors Carefully – “It’s been said that no one is an island, and that’s certainly true when times are tough. Having a sense of community during a natural disaster, a pandemic, or a SHTF situation can be critical to your survival. Yet just because someone is your neighbor, doesn’t mean that they should blindly be considered a trusted resource.” – Eric Beuning
