Trump Has Done — And Will Do — It All – Karl Denninger – AT FIRST I THOUGHT KARL HAD LOST IT AFTER READING THIS, THEN I REALIZED IT IT WAS APRIL1. GOOD ONE FROM KARL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump won’t rule out seeking a third term in the White House, tells NBC News ‘there are methods’ for doing so – “President Donald Trump said in a Sunday-morning phone call that he was “not joking” about a third term, adding that “it is far too early to think about it.”” – Kristen Welker and Megan Lebowitz

Amid Lawfare & Dem Opposition, Trump Education Order Shifts Duties to Other Agencies – “With federal lawsuits flying and Democrat lawmakers vowing to protect the U.S. Department of Education at all costs, President Donald Trump’s long-awaited executive order on education is making big waves. But it doesn’t do what countless conservatives think it does.” – Alex Newman

Three Words Explain March’s Illegal Border Crossing Numbers – “Border crossing numbers hit a new low in March, with federal agents encountering about 7,000 people entering the U.S. illegally last month, mainly through the San Diego and El Paso sectors. Advertisement Compared to March 2024, when 137,000 individuals crossed the southern border illegally, that’s a 94 percent decrease. Homeland Security officials told the New York Post it’s easy to explain the decline: “the Trump effect.” ” – Leah Barkoukis – AT LEAST THAT’S ONE OF THE THINGS HE SAID HE WOULD DO!!!

Trump Takes on the Banking Industry by Developing his Own Cryptocurrency Financial Network – “While the media has been largely detracted by Musk and his DOGE activities that are allegedly saving the U.S. $billions of dollars by cutting government jobs and agencies, it has now been revealed that the Trump administration has actually spent MORE money out of the U.S. Treasury than the Biden administration did last year during the same time frame. This gives further credence to what Catherine Austin Fitts said a couple of weeks ago, that the Trump administration was NOT reducing spending at all, but just taking that spending out of the Civil Service sector, and transferring those jobs to the private sector instead. They are also trying to rush new crypto-friendly laws through Congress.” – Brian Shilhavy

USDA paid to study queer farmers, Latinx masculinity, more on taxpayer dime – ” U.S. taxpayers have shelled out tens of thousands of dollars in recent years to the U.S. Department of Agriculture for research on LGBT issues, the kind of funding now under scrutiny by the Trump administration.” – Casey Harper

One outrage after another: Europe is lost – “A French court recently sentenced National Rally leader Marine Le Pen to prison and banned her from running in national elections for five years, ostensibly for embezzling European Union funds. Even the court admitted that Le Pen did not personally profit. This is almost certainly a ruse, as French courts clearly do not care where or how non-conservative politicians and public servants get their money. Well, France has a long history of executing out-of-favor politicians, allegedly in defense of democracy. Remember the Jacobins? But, hey, when in doubt about your election chances, and, to save your beloved “democracy,” it’s always a good thing to jail your political opponents, right? Bridging the East and West, left and right, in a touching display of totalitarian inclusiveness, Brussels has now fully embraced these totally tyrannical tenets.” – Eric Utter

Tehran responds to Trump’s threat – “The US president said that Iran could be bombed if it doesn’t agree to a nuclear deal. Iran will retaliate if attacked, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has warned in response to US President Donald Trump’s recent threat to bomb the country.” – RT

Stupid is and stupid does…or does it? – “I always figure it’s better to overestimate your enemies than to underestimate them.But sometimes, it’s really hard not to look at one’s opposition and wonder just how stupid they really are. See, Teslas have something called “Sentry Mode.” What it does is record video of anyone near your vehicle. You can then play the video back and see who did what. In the case of people’s cars being keyed, for example, there’s video of the person who did this. ” – Tom Knighton

Mark Carney refuses to clarify 2022 remarks accusing the Freedom Convoy of ‘sedition’ – “In 2022, Mark Carney described the Freedom Convoy as an act of ‘sedition’ and advocated for the government to use its power to crush the non-violent protest movement.” – Anthony Murdoch

Trump Moves ‘Nuclear Capable’ Bombers to Within Striking Distance of Iran – “Think about that for a minute: Iranian ballistic missiles landed 32 direct hits on the Nevatim airbase, the most heavily defended airbase on the planet. The Iranians have shown that they can put their missiles on any target in any location in Israel and Israel has no way to stop them. What does it all mean? It means that Israel is luring the United States into a war that it cannot win and that will bring the American Century to a catastrophic end.” – Mike Whitney

Trump: “Very Bad Things are Going to Happen.” Netanyahu Wants the U.S. to Destroy Iran. – “The U.S. Intelligence community, in its annual Global Threat Assessment, refuted Netanyahu’s oft-repeated claim about Iran building a nuclear weapon stating, “Iran is not building a nuclear weapon.”” – Dennis Kucinich

Europe On a War Footing – Again! – “The European media is fueling unfounded fears of an imminent Russian attack on NATO, pushing for either war or an unprecedented arms race. European leadership and deep-state actors are using this narrative to justify massive military spending.” – Phil Butler

The Last Time This Happened, Stocks Collapsed 30% – “The stock market is about to trigger a “SELL” on its monthly MACD. If you’re unfamiliar with the MACD is stands for moving average convergence/divergence. It’s a technical indicator that is used to monitor momentum in the stock market. The way it works is quite technical, so to keep things simple here, you can think of the MACD as illustrating when short-term momentum shifts versus the long-term trend in the stock market. When short-term momentum breaks down against the long-term trend, it signals a “sell,” and when short-term momentum breaks out to the upside against the long-term trend, it signals “buy.” In a nutshell, the MACD is a fantastic means of catching MAJOR market turns.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Frantic COMEX Operations Continue – “Whether it’s the threat of looming tariffs, a shortage of metal due to over-leverage, a repatriation before revaluation, or something else, what’s undeniable is the surge of activity in and around the COMEX, its vaults, and its monthly delivery schedule ever since Trump won the U.S. presidential election late last year. The first thing you should be watching is the spread between the spot price (London) and the front month futures price (New York). Normally, this spread is less than $10 in gold and 20¢ in silver. However, beginning in December, the spread in each has blown out to extreme levels.” – Craig Hemke

COMING SOON: Silver’s Mania Phase – “Every so often, silver goes through a mania phase.” – Adam Sharp

Rising costs due to wage increases, national insurance contributions, and geopolitical tensions are significantly impacting manufacturers, particularly small businesses. Tax increases and a fall in output during the first quarter of the year have contributed to an “ominous” sign of decline in the UK manufacturing sector.” – City A.M

Why Spinach Is The Superfood That Belongs In Your Garden This Year – Bill Heid

How to Make Your Own DIY Homestead Defense Kit – “Design your defense plan like a chessboard. Zone your homestead into “security tiers”. My core area—home, livestock barn, and water supply – gets the heaviest fortification: motion sensors, reinforced doors, and a central first-aid station. Outer zones like gardens or tool sheds use simpler deterrents: thorny blackberry bushes planted near fences or DIY tripwires strung with fishing line and tin cans.” – Michael B
