Unfortunately, The Trump Cabinet Will Likely Expand the Surveillance State – “The surveillance state is an outcropping of the Fourth Branch of Government, which is, essentially, the unelected intelligence community in control of our government. The surveillance state comes from the creation of the Dept of Homeland Security (DHS) which is an entirely inward-looking agency. Prior to the Patriot Act, the surveillance sweep searching for terror threats focused outward, looking outside the U.S borders. The Patriot Act took the surveillance sweep a full 360 degrees and looked inside the Homeland for terror threats. Hence, DHS was created.” – Sundance

President Trump To Withdraw The United States From The “Corrupt Globalist Scam” Known As The World Health Organization – “President Trump’s transition team has made plans to immediately extricate the United States from the World Health Organization (WHO), which is nothing more than the eugenics arm of the United Nations.” – 2nd Smartest Guy in the World

Did Governments follow a recipe for effective torture against their populations during “covid”? – “It sure looks like they were trying to break the will of their citizens.” – Jonathan Engler

Doctor Reveals in 1 Minute How Much Aluminum, Mercury, and Chemicals Children Ingest Through Vaccines – “When Dr. Sherri Tenpenny worked in the emergency room, she believed vaccines contained only weakened viruses and saline. That assumption shattered in September 2000 when she read the package insert of a vaccine for the first time.” – RAIR Foundation

Hijacking Christmas & the Church for ‘Climate’ – “Political bosses, green energy promoters, and even the Pope weaponized Christmas to shove progressivism and climatism on the earth.” – Alex Newman

NEWS

Corporate America – “Just in time for Christmas, the “tech bros”, who jumped on the Trump bandwagon last summer, launched a campaign on Twitter in favor of infinite Indian migration, for all the long ago debunked economic reasons. It was not just David Sacks trying to subvert the meaning of American First. Elon Musk took time away from not celebrating Christmas to push the idea of unlimited immigration from India as well. Like all the tech bros, nation wreckers and open society types, his claim rests on the obvious lie that India is full of future Einsteins that America must recruit in order to win. What we win by turning your neighborhood into a New Delhi slum is never explained, because it is a lie. Oligarchs like Musk do not see America as their home, but as a company they just acquired. The triumphalism of the tech bros is that they now think with Trump in the White House, they can do what Musk did with Twitter, to the whole country and reorganize it for their purposes. They are the board that took the company called America private and now plan to reorganize it.” – The Z Man

Trust the Government! – “Well, Maybe Not. One of my favorite bumper stickers has this message: If you think you can trust the government, ask an Indian (Native American). It’s a good reminder. Lately, the mainstream media has warned us against conspiracy theorists. Against distrusting government and media narratives. And yet recently (and finally!) the Wall Street Journal came clean in an article that probed President Biden’s declining stamina and mental health. ” – Bill Astore

The King James Test for American Democracy – “On December 1, President Joe Biden announced that he was pardoning his son Hunter for all the crimes he committed from January 1, 2014 through December 1, 2024. President Biden absolved all of his son’s felonies because of his “serious addictions” and because Hunter was purportedly mistreated by Biden’s own appointees at the Justice Department. But going back 40 years to his time as chairman of Senate Judiciary Committee chairman, Joe Biden favored vociferously and mercilessly prosecuting hapless individuals for the same offenses for which he absolved his son. Biden’s pardon of his son epitomizes how presidents and their families are now above the law. It also illustrates how the “King James Test for American Democracy” could become the death of the Constitution.” – James Bovard

What If Solutions That Worked in the Past No Longer Fix What’s Broken? – Charles Hugh Smith

Former DARPA Drone Operator Claims Mysterious Drones Over U.S. May Be a ‘Distraction’ for Future Military Attack – “Mike Glover, a former drone operator for both defense research lab DARPA and the US military, has warned that the recent wave of mysterious drone sightings over the U.S. could be part of a larger, more sinister agenda. “In my career, I flew drones, a lot of drones. Almost every drone in the inventory, I was qualified to fly. I taught people how to fly the drones, and I worked a couple of special programs with DARPA on flying drones for Task Force… If a foreign adversary was doing a covert up to surveil, they’re not going to have flashing and illuminating lights,” The broader concern voiced by Glover and others is the potential that these drone sightings are being used as a media diversion.” – Jim Hᴏft

Millions of Companies Must Register w/ Massive U.S. Database by Jan. 1 Due to Last-Minute Court Ruling – “Enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) has been reinstated along with its impending January 1, 2025 filing deadline…” – Ken Silva

Michigan won’t be Michigan for much longer – “Data from the U.S. Census Bureau for 2024 found while Michigan had a gain in population over the past year, it was driven by international migration. The Great Replacement in real time—and what does a great replacement mean in reality? Well, it means the physical landscape changes: homestyle diners give way to another Mexican food truck run by illegals, and mom and pop groceries give way to halal markets. It means a demographic change, and white Americans become a minority in their own home (whites are already a global minority by a shocking degree). It means laws change, it means history is lost, and it means no more Michigan as we know it. It means Michigan will become all that the foreigners fled.” – Olivia Murray

Putin’s Remarks About Jews, Ukraine, And The Russian Orthodox Church Aren’t Anti-Semitic – Andrew Korybko

The Waste Of Putin’s War – “How Much Blood And Treasure Can Russia Afford To Pay? No matter how one views the geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe, regardless of whether one views the conflict as the product of a militaristic posturing by Putin or reckless and largely corrupt NATO expansion efforts designed to “surround” Russia, the practical consequences of war emerge not from the motives or reasons, but from the choice to go to war. Even as we concede the obvious, that NATO is, first and foremost, an “anti-Russia” military alliance, we must also concede that the decision to invade Ukraine was solely Vladimir Putin’s.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Another Expert Report Finds Israel Is Committing Genocide. the West Yawns – “Three separate reports published this month by leading international human rights and medical groups have detailed the same horrifying story: that Israel is well advanced in its genocide of the Palestinian population in Gaza. Or, to be more accurate, they have confirmed what was already patently clear: that, for the past 14 months, Israel has been slaughtering tens of thousands of Palestinians with indiscriminate munitions, while at the same time gradually starving the survivors to death and denying them access to medical care.” – Jonathan Cook

Israel’s Long History as a Rogue Terrorist Nation: Part 1 – “The long history of Zionist terrorism the mainstream doesn’t want to talk about. Hideously evil Zionists like Menachem Begin, David Ben-Gurion and wanted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu are NOT above criticism simply because they are Jewish. If you disagree, and think these folks are beyond reproach simply because they’re Jews, then congratulations – you are a BIGOT. Like militant feminists, you are the very thing you disingenuously claim to despise. No-one wants to be called a racist or xenophobe, and the ‘antisemitism’ sham cynically exploits this fear. The ‘antisemitism’ ruse is a smokescreen, an intimidation campaign designed to suppress criticism of Zionists and prevent discussion of their well-documented treachery and terrorism. Do not fall for it.” – Anthony Colpo

ECONOMIC NEWS

It’s Not Just that Monthly Payment – “It is freeing – literally – to not have to come up with the average (with good credit!) $734 monthly new car payment (as of 2024). But it’s not just that. They – the lenders and those who rely on your willingness to buy this much debt – don’t want you to think about what else comes along for that ride, in addition to that monthly payment. The insurance payment, for instance. How much does that cost? How about roughly $2,500 per year – on average? That’s – roughly – another $200 per month you’ll be paying, rounding out to just shy of $1,000 per month. That used to be roughly enough to just about cover a mortgage on a modest single family home. It is still enough to cover about half the cost of a monthly mortgage payment on a modest single family home.” – Eric Peters – A MUST READ FROM ERIC. IS IT ANY WONDER NO ONE CAN AFFORD ANY THING ANY MORE!!!!!!!!!!

Futures Slide As Bond Yields Jump To 6 Month High – Tyler Durden

Who Bought and Holds the Recklessly Ballooning US National Debt, even as the Fed is Unloading its Treasury Securities? – “A hot question for an iffy situation. So here are the holders as of Q3.” – Wolf Richter

The Fed is Cutting. Why Are Mortgage Rates Going Up? – “Although it’s continuing to cut, the Fed’s actions primarily influence short-term interest rates, such as the federal funds rate. This is the rate at which banks lend to one another overnight. These short-term rates affect a wide range of borrowing costs including those on credit cards, car loans, and adjustable-rate mortgages. However, most mortgage rates, particularly those for fixed-rate loans, are more closely tied to long-term bond yields such as the yield on 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds. And right now, 10-year Treasury yields are soaring.” – Schiff Gold

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Three Layers of Food Preservation for Winter Survival – “As someone who lives in USDA climate zone 4, where temperatures dip down to -30F, I take winter seriously. Each fall, when winter looms, yes, I am thinking about the usual homestead tasks of preparing firewood and making sure the woodstove is ready for burning. However, I am also getting ready to survive the winter without grocery stores. Now, so far, the grocery stores have continued to operate, but you never know.” – Rowan O’Malley

S.C.A.R.E Bag vs Bug-Out Bag – “When it comes to getting ready for a grid-down disaster scenario, being prepared with a survival kit isn’t just a good idea. It’s essential. But not all emergency situations are the same, and neither are the kits that go with them.” – Nicholas Oetken

VERSES FOR THE DAY

Matthew 2:1-2 and 11-13 

 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,  Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.  And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.  And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.
