THE BIG PICTURE

The Extremely Improbable, Exceedingly Unlikely, Exceptionally Amazing Birth Of Christ – “Overall, there are over 300 prophecies in the Bible regarding the coming of the Messiah that were fulfilled by Jesus Christ.” – Michael Snyder

Media Begins To Report That Bird Flu Luck Has Run Out – “The mainstream media has started reporting that the bird flu “luck” has “run out” for the United States. It says that it was only a matter of time before this virus made someone “severely” sick and caused emergency declarations. And yet, most Americans still haven’t even experienced bird flu other than watching the cost of eggs skyrocket. It’s a lot like COVID-19 in that regard. No on noticed anything wrong until the mainstream media made sure that people took notice. Now that the media is making sure the public knows of the bird flu and its “severity”, they can work on ginning up the fear the same way that was done with COVID.” – Mac Slavo

It’s the biolabs, stupid: Is this why Ukraine murdered a Russian general? – “The world deserves answers – not just about Igor Kirillov’s death, but about the controversy he was investigating” – Nadezhda Romanenko

Bill Gates Isn’t the Largest Funder of His Global Vaccine Campaign—American Taxpayers Are – “$11.5 billion in U.S. taxpayer money funds Gates’ aggressive crusade to push vaccines on global populations, White House documents show.” – Jon Fleetwood

The Long March Through the Institutions Is Already Here – “Media. Schools. Universities. Churches. Corporations. Charities. Every single one of them has been either fully or partly captured by the ideology of neo-Marxism. At some point between 1970 and 2023, the institutions were claimed. I can’t watch a football game without getting pummeled with social justice messaging. It’s everywhere—in church pews on Sunday morning, in corporate board rooms, in medicine and policing” – Jon Miltimore

“Why Cats Are The New Pigs—And Could Spark The Next Pandemic.” —Daily Telegraph – Celia Farber

“Kill and Harvest.” Patients are Being Euthanized to Harvest Their Organs – “In the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, and Canada, people who want euthanasia can become organ donors. (A recent report in Spain showed that 13 percent of those euthanized donated organs.) Let’s call it “kill and harvest,” a policy heartily approved by our ever more crassly utilitarian medical establishment.’ – Wesley Smith

Yet Another Christmas Carol – ““Joe Biden” was a mere babe in pram when old Adolf bid farewell to his smoldering Reich. But, eight decades later, after being jammed into the Oval Office by his chauffeur, one Barack Obama, the grasping, scraping, flinty, clutching, covetous old bird, sometimes known as “the Big Guy,” from whom no match had ever struck the fire of an original idea, or a good idea, or even a sound, workable idea, shuffled to his bed-chamber in the lonely compartment known as the White House “residence” on Christmas eve. “Humbug!” he maundered to himself as he struggled aboard the cold presidential bed, absent lately of the doctor who once claimed to be his wedded wife. “Humbug,” he mumbled as he fell off into a cruel, blank slumber. He awakened — he knew not how many minutes longer — to a snorting noise, And then resolved out of a mist the very figure of Hitler, his once-smart, gray Führeruniform tattered and threadbare, “What do you want of me?” Scrooge cried, but this ghost of Hitler only wailed again and beckoned with gnarled finger. Suddenly, “Joe Biden” seemed to be flying out in the night air across a great swamp, and then north over the Beltway, to Scranton, Pennsylvania. “Joey” loved playing Hitler: ““You were so good at it!” the ghost wailed. “What happened to you?” “I wish I knew. Everything’s a blur now. But tell me, spirit: was I a good you?” “One of the best!” the ghost of Hitler moaned and dissolved into vapor. – James Howard Kunstler  – GOOD ONE AGAIN FROM MR KUNSTLER. HIS LAST YEAR’S CAROL WAS GOOD (LINKED ON 11/27/23, THIS ONE IS EVEN BETTER. READ ON FOR THE GHOST OF CHRISMAS PRESENT AND FUTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is Seeking to Stop a War a Crime? – “Whistleblowers and other government activists need to be heard. The early November detention of Asif Rahman, a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) officer, indicted in a federal national security court in the Eastern District of Virginia on two counts of “willful retention and transmission of national defense information under the Espionage Act,” was largely downplayed in the national media.” – Philip Giraldi

Forget the Wuhan “lab leak”; what about the ELEPHANT TRANQUILIZER? – “Carfentanil is 100 times more potent than fentanyl. So a lethal dose is less than the size of one grain of salt. If Russia were making it and shipping it to the US, the President and the Congress and the New York Times would call it an act of war.” – Jon Rappoport

The Porkulous is dead – “Thank social media… the days of “we have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it” are over.” – El Gato Malo

The CR That Wasn’t – “Interesting few days in congress and actually a good class on government corruption. The ugly sausage-making of the system is completely exposed by these shenanigans. Trying to back the people into a corner, the resident GOP/POS Speaker Mike Johnson attempted to dump a 1,547 page “continuing resolution” (CR) which should contain a few lines of text stating simply that current funding will be extended for a specific period of time. Instead it included a pay raise for Congress, funding of a key part of the government censorship of the people and a defense for the January 6 committee from investigation. The leadership of the House: Johnson, Scalise, et al praised it as a tough but fair bill. It wasn’t, it was pork. ” – T.L. Davis

This Is Getting Ridiculous(VIDEO) – “Mass drone hysteria. The government is fueling the drone mass hysteria, but why?” – Paul Joseph Watson

Media loses all their marbles, claims Musk is the real president and Trump is just a puppet – “The media have a new talking point to trash Trump—they have decided that they will say that the “elected to nothing” Elon Musk is president, and Trump is just his puppet. What a joke. Not once have I ever seen these same people question who has been the president the last four years while Biden’s mind has clearly been shot. They intentionally spread the lie that Biden was “sharp as a tack” and doing a great job.” – Jack Hellner

Trump Warns EU: Buy American Oil & Gas Or Face Tariff War – Tylewr Durden

British media gloating betrays masterminds behind Kirillov’s killing – “The reveling by the British news media over the assassination of a top Russian general in Moscow is revealing in several ways. First of all, it is a sickening display of wretched so-called journalism. The celebratory tone in British media outlets at the sight of Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov’s bloodied corpse lying in the snow speaks volumes of a despicable lack of respect. It says something about the depraved depth of British culture. By comparison, the reporting of the assassination by American media outlets was relatively mundane and matter-of-fact.” – Finian Cunningham

After Hunter, How About Pardoning the Gun Owners Biden Criminalized? – “If Americans needed another reason to distrust the Left, Biden’s blatant hypocrisy in pardoning his son Hunter, alongside his disregard for justice and abuse of power, more than fits the bill. Unsurprisingly, Biden attempted to rationalize his decision by pointing fingers at the prosecution, saying it was “unfair and selective.” Regardless of his reasons, every American now facing legal prosecution due to unconstitutional firearm policies deserves the same treatment as Hunter.” – Bronson Winslow

Rand Paul Breaks The Internet With Suggestion For Speaker Of The House… – “Nothing would disrupt the swamp more. Senator Rand Paul has suggested that Elon Musk be named as Speaker of The House.” – Steve Watson  – WHY NOT, IT’S ALL A CIRCUS ANYWAT!!!!

IMPORTANT UPDATES: FROM HERE… EXPECT A RAPID ECONOMIC DECLINE AND MUCH HIGHER PRICES (VIDEO) – Gregory Mannarino

Why Tax When They Can Just Print? – “Whether the government taxes or inflates, the common thread it destroys much more than it takes. Toss in the stupid crap it blew the money on — I mentioned in a previous video how a dollar in bureaucrat salary destroys $158 in production. It adds up fast. If the federal government’s going to print money the proceeds should go to the people. But, ideally, it prints nothing, backs the dollar with hard assets, and taxes as close to nothing as possible.” – Peter St Onge

Are China’s Big Gold Purchases for Protection Against the Dollar—Or to Attack It? – “China is engaging in huge gold purchases for multiple reasons. After taking a six-month break from an 18-month gold-buying spree, the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) resumed its policy of large gold purchases in November.” – James Gorrie

Gold and silver in sell-off – “Strong dollar and rising UST yields are destabilising GBP, EUR, JPY, and their bond markets. These are the precursor of a global debt crisis — the ideal setup for higher gold prices next year. Gold and silver declined further this week, after Jay Powell’s comments having cut the Fed Funds rate by ¼% to 4.25%—4.50% range. ” – Alasdair Macleod

Watch The Year-End Silver Price – “I know, I know. There are only two weeks remaining in 2024 and you’ve got the holiday season on your mind. Me too. However, as the year draws to a close, be sure to keep an eye on the silver price, because where it finishes 2024 may have a significant impact on where it heads in 2025.” – Craig Hemke

Expect Government Crackdowns In A ‘Global Depression’ – Dave Jefferson

5 Keys for Adjusting to Living in Rural Areas After an Economic Crash – “It’s difficult to say if long-standing problems in the US economy can be quickly fixed via deregulation, cutting taxes, and various attempts to lure businesses to be more productive and competitive. In the meantime, individuals must still figure out ways to survive in these times of quasi-economic crash. Until the population of rural areas increases to a level that isn’t sustainable, relocating from urban to rural may be a good idea. Here are 5 keys to making a successful transition from urban to rural living.” – Fred Tyrell

This Is How I Disappeared From the Grid – “The grid is defined in many ways. There’s the power grid, the communication grid defined by the Internet and other communication services, and even the grid that delivers natural gas, water, and other common services. All of them are not free. We pay for these services and the bills are not getting any cheaper. This is how I disappeared from the grid and how you can do it too.” – Steve Nubie

 

 

VERSES FOR THE DAY

Luke 2:1-3    And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.  (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)  And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
