Nothing New Under The Sun 2016

THE BIG PICTURE

The War on Whatever – “The War on Whatever is not meant to be won. It is meant to be continuous, which it is. Like the never-ending war in Orwell’s 1984, it is waged by the empire against its own subjects, but not only to keep the structure of society intact, also, in our case, to transform society into a neo-totalitarian global-capitalist dystopia. Are you not familiar with the War on Whatever? Well, OK, you remember the War on Terror.” – CJ Hopkins

Power and Empire – “In my youth the World was a vast place of many countries, great distances, excitingly different cultures and languages and fascinating opportunities. Yet now, since 2020 to be perfectly exact, this notion of a Great World has been transformed into an oppressive suffocating Small World run by a few entities wielding unimaginable power — at least it was unimaginable until they locked us down and shoved so many phony narratives down our collective throats that we were too stuffed to be able to vomit. This tightening of the screws was accompanied, in the West at least, by dicta advising all of us to hew to a Uniparty Globalist Line that promoted the extirpation of individual liberties, national borders and the rights of national sovereignty, an idolatry of faux-enlightened cultural mores heralding, on the surface, the eradication of differences of race, creed and gender and the distinction between men and machines.” – New Zealand Doc

The Near-Death Experience that Led Nicole Shanahan to Christ (VIDEO) – “Today, we’re excited to sit down with Nicole Shanahan, lawyer, philanthropist, founder of the Bia-Echo Foundation, and RFK Jr.’s former running mate, to discuss her faith journey and conversion to Christianity after the loss of her unborn child to miscarriage. She tells us about her journey on the campaign trail and how she lost friends and supporters over her political stance. We also talk about some “right-wing” vaccine conspiracy theories and how some of them might not be as far-fetched as they might seem. ” – Allie Beth Stuckey – MORE THAN JUSTA RELIGIOUS VIDEO!!!

Al Gore Is Still Wrong About Everything – “Wrong but rich! Remember in 2006 when Al Gore released An Inconvenient Truth and made lots of frightening claims about climate change, none of which came true? ” – Steve Watson

Why Harvey Keitel Got Fired by Stanley Kubrick While Filming ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ – ““Mr. Kubrick did some things I objected to,” Keitel explained. Keitel may have lost a job, but he refused to give away his agency—not to a studio and not even to Stanley Kubrick. This isn’t to say that Kubrick is a villain or anything. He had his own way of making movies, and he was brilliant at it. The point is the lines between artistic integrity, self respect, and professional success are different for everyone. Where people choose to draw the lines is up to them, but Harvey Keitel shows that in a free system, we do have a choice.” – Jon Miltimore)

Someone is sponsoring an entire programme dedicated to preparing for future engineered pandemics. – “But we have no right to know who’s funding it.” – Jonathan Engler

25 States Say NO to Geoengineering — But CNN Still Gaslights – “Let that sink in: Half the country is moving to ban atmospheric spraying. And yet corporate media still mocks the people. This is not journalism. It’s coordinated gaslighting. It’s psychological warfare.” – Sayer Ji

NEW AUTOPSY STUDY – Cardiac Micro-Scars in Sudden Death Following COVID-19 Vaccination – “Corroborates our prior research on COVID-19 vaccine-induced cardiac arrest, reinforcing the link between myocardial scarring, arrhythmias, and sudden death.” – Nicolas Hulscher, MPH

NEWS

Cultivating Contempt – ” Why the politics of scorn are so successful at driving lasting tribes and how this plays out from here. It’s a powerful way to unite tribes against a “common foe” and has been in widespread use since Og first told the valley people that “clan from other side of hill not like us! Them bad people! Do bad things!” And used the cultural adhesion and unity it created to hold his group together. Human history is a history of tribal signaling through a variety of blood libels. “Others” are described as unclean, unjust, evil, literally worse than Hitler, And like they all have plans to do some disgusting, unspeakable things to harm you or take from you.” – El Gato Malo

Some Odd Things About “Anti-Semitism” – ““Bibi” Netanyahu is not a Semite. He is of eastern European (Polish) extraction, at least on his father’s side. Not – again – that there is anything wrong with that. But when we hear someone call someone else an anti-Semite, the implicit implication is the accused dislikes Jews, who are commonly taken to be people of Middle Eastern/Arab origins rather than European origins. It seems strange, then, to accuse someone of being an “anti-Semite” for opposing or criticizing the policies or actions of a person who isn’t actually a Semite. This brings up another impolitic point that is even more certain to trigger a rain of Anti-Semite! accusations. It is that there is something fishy about people who are of European origins laying claim to land in the Middle East on the basis of it being their ancestral land, promised to them by their God. More finely, that they are ordained by God to seize the land and evict those Middle Eastern people – those Semites – who have been living on that land for generations. This is of course the fundamental tenet of what is styled “Zionism.”” – Eric Peters

Making Our Rights Disappear: The Authoritarian War on Due Process – “Imagine this: you’re rounded up in the dead of night by government agents, arrested and sent to a detention center. The arresting agents don’t identify themselves, nor do they provide any documentation indicating why you are being detained. There can be no understating the danger. The war on due process is here. No trials. No hearings. No rights. Just indefinite detention and secret deportations. This is the fate that awaits every one of us, not just immigrants (legal or otherwise), if the government’s war on the Constitution remains unchecked.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

It is Not “Karma,” It is a Crime: The Curious Silence Over Political Violence in New York = “Yesterday, there was a curious aspect to the coverage of the video of a woman attacking a young man for wearing a MAGA hat. One can dismiss the verbal attacks as an exercise of free speech. However, she then grabs and comes into contact with the young man as she chases him from the car:” – Jonathan Turley

Trump Says Joining the Commonwealth “Sounds good to me!” (VIDEO) – “Taking back the American Colonies in 249 years. Immediately following the US declaration of independence, the British Crown began to regain control over the American colonies.” – Greg Reese  – GOOD ONE FROM GREG ONCE AGAIN!!!

PBS and NPR CEOs Feel the Heat As Marjorie Taylor Greene Comes Loaded for Bear at DOGE Hearing – “The “news” that these entities produce is either resented—or, increasingly, tuned out and turned off— by most of the hard-working Americans who are forced to pay for it. They no longer view NPR and PBS as trusted news sources. As matter of fact, these people – they’re a threat. In fact, when Elon Musk put his hand over his heart, extended it, and told the American people his heart goes out to them, PBS News posted the clip, called it a “fascist Nazi salute,” and described how it was similar to the same “Heil” used by Nazis at their victory rallies. Not once did PBS or NPR report on the numerous accounts of Democrats making the same gesture. Greene then held up a photo montage of that very thing. “AOC, Kamala Harris, Barack Obama, Elizabeth Warren, somebody that lost a presidential race, Hillary Clinton, Governor Tim Waltz,” she said as she pointed to their photos. “Why wasn’t this treated exactly the same way? Is there not a standard in journalism today? Apparently not,” she also noted.” – Sister Toldjah

Israel blows up Gaza’s only specialised cancer hospital in massive blast – “‘Deliberate’ destruction of Turkish-Palestinian hospital has been condemned as being part of Israel’s ‘systematic state terrorism’. Israel has blown up Gaza’s only specialised cancer treatment hospital, as well as an adjacent medical school, drawing condemnation for again targeting a medical facility, which is banned under international humanitarian law. Friday’s explosion flattened central Gaza’s Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital, which had already been severely damaged by Israeli air strikes since October 2023.” – Aljazeera

In Movies We Understand That The Genocidal Child Murderers Who Blow Up Hospitals Are The Villains – “Nobody seems to have trouble figuring out who the real villains are when it’s happening in the movies. The narrative managers and spinmeisters make it a lot harder to sort out the villains from the victims in real life.” – Caitlin Johnstone

The Domestic & International Implications Of The Trump Team’s Yemeni War Plans Scandal – “Readers can learn a lot about his administration’s internal policymaking dynamics, its relationship with Israel, and its overall approach towards the Yemeni Conflict.” – Andrew Korybko

Department of Offense – “The U.S. Military Is a Global Strike Force. Officially, the U.S. has the DOD, the department of defense. But when was the last time the U.S. military was primarily oriented toward defense of the CONUS? (CONUS is a military acronym for continental United States.)” . Bill Astore

The Real Scandal Is the Illegal War in Yemen – “Dozens of innocent Yemenis are dead and many more are maimed so that Trump and his allies could congratulate themselves for being “tougher” than Biden.” – Daniel Larison

ECONOMIC NEWS

(BE READY FOR ANYTHING).THE US IS OUT OF TIME, OUT OF CASH, AND LOST ITS GLOBAL STANDING. (VIDEO) – Gregory Mannarino

Who’s Got the Gold? – “In 1971, the US abruptly went off the gold standard,  It didn’t take long before countries began playing with their currencies. At one time, the German mark, the French franc, the Italian lire, and the British shilling had all been roughly equivalent in value, and four or five of any one of them was worth about a dollar. From that point on, a currency note from any country, which was already no more than an “I owe you,” was increasingly degraded to an “I owe you an undetermined and fluctuating amount.” Currencies come and go in the world with remarkable frequency. In that quiet scrambling we were talking about, no one is being really truthful about how much gold they have.” – Jeff Thomas

You’ll Be Amazed How Much Higher Gold’s Price Can Go… – “After shattering $3,000 an ounce (just days after we made the prediction!) we ask, what’s next for gold? After surveying the current state of both gold supply and global demand, the short answer to the question is simply this: The sky’s the limit… ” – Peter Reagan

55 Ways That Everything That You Think That You Own Is Being Systematically Taken Away From You – “The entire system has been designed to generate as much revenue from your activity as possible until someday you eventually drop dead. It is tax season, and that means that it is time to feed the largest and most bloated government in the history of the entire planet once again. Of course the federal income tax is just one of the ways that they are systematically draining your wealth. As you will see below, there are literally dozens of taxes that Americans must pay each year. It is not an accident that most Americans are experiencing a declining standard of living. The system is rigged, and the rigging has not been in our favor.” – Michael Snyder –  A MUST READ FROM MICHAEL!!!

America’s Self Destruction Continues to Spread through the Economy – “It’s too much all at once and poorly thought out. While the spread of destruction is global, it’s likely to be worse at the center of the collapse.” – David Haggith

Prepare for the Looming Recession – “Will we have a recession?” was the question. My answer was… Yes, count on it. And to give away the punchline, prepare now for rough seas ahead, so to speak. Take some money off the stock market table, stash cash, lighten up expenses, throttle back generally, and own gold and silver for the long-term.” – Byron King

Stocks, Bond Yields Sink On Reports Of Imminent Trump Auto Tariffs – Tyler Durden

Private Equity’s Version of “The Sting” – “It’s called a “dividend recap,” and it’s some sweet action. Private equity firms and Wall Street banks loaded American businesses up with debt from leveraged buyouts over the last decade and now they are loading them with more debt to cash out their winnings with an outlandish strategy, the “dividend recap.”” – Eric Salzman

Throughout this article, we’re going to share links to more detailed information and checklists for items to stockpile or assemble. ” – Steve Nubie

VERSES FOR THE DAY (USED BEFORE)

Proverbs 6:16-19  These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:  A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,  An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,  A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren
