THE BIG PICTURE

You can wreck yourself more easily now because medical drugs will cost way less? – “Trump just announced he’s cutting prices of Pharma drugs by 30 to 80%. Not sure he can really do that, but if he can, more people will be injured and killed by them? For all those people covered by medical insurance, which is paying for those drugs anyway, does that change anything? The way it looks to me, nothing changes for the user. He still gets the same drugs that are toxic. The real issue has been and still is: so many people on so many poisonous drugs.” – Jon Rappoport

Update – “It must be another tariff turnaround, (capitulation) or is it? Trump issues (arbitrarily) 145% tariffs on certain Chinese goods, and China reciprocates with 125% tariffs on certain U.S. goods; but wait, in secret over the weekend, all that is put aside, and voila, U.S. markets go straight up. Consumers are harmed by all tariffs, (taxes) and that will not change due to this deal, but Trump will still crow at his ‘mastery’ of the ‘deal.’ My take is that this is just another bait and switch maneuver, and who knows what will come next? The details of this ‘deal’ have not been released, but you can rest assured that this was plotted out long before this weekend holiday in Switzerland. Regardless consumers in the U.S. and China, as always, will both lose, this the “art of the deal” every time Trump is involved. Up, down; up, down, and the next ‘deal’ lies in wait, as the coming digital takeover and surveillance of all of you goes forward unabated.” – Gary D. Barnett

1991: A timeline of Robert Maxwell, Mossad, & CIA – “Jan Ludvik Hoch. Known as – Robert Maxwell. Father to Ghislaine. Father in Stud Law to Jeffrey Epstein via Ghislaine. Suicided as his identities were going to be revealed. He trained – Epstein. Jan Hoch was born in a region that is now a part of Ukraine. His history is very obscured from dating even decades ago. Scrubbed. There is one common point that remains in History files, Robert Maxwell Hoch was embezzling, committing gross fraud, and stealing money from employee pension plans – as a personal loan. ” – Helena Glass

Trump Order Injects AI into US Education – “Of course, it is important for children to keep up with new technologies such as AI. But the dangers of AI — especially AI systems programmed by evildoers — are orders of magnitude greater when it comes to shaping the minds and values of the next generation. And this danger is compounded when national and even international authorities are involved, akin to putting all of one’s eggs in one basket. Caution is desperately needed. ” – Alex Newman

Mutant Rice and Gates’s Lab Rats: Grand Experiments in India’s Fields – “In late 2024, Bill Gates sparked outrage in India after describing the country as “a kind of laboratory to try things” during a podcast with Reid Hoffman. Gates emphasised the nation’s stability as a “testing ground” for global initiatives. His remarks were widely condemned. Social media erupted, with many Indians accusing Gates of reducing their nation to a mere experimental ground for Western interests. Social media users labelled Indians as “guinea pigs” in Gates’ laboratory and questioned the ethics and motives behind such experimentation.” – Colin Todhunter

Vaccine developed in Nebraska could signal end to annual flu shot – “Effort could reduce the impact and spread of swine flu, bird flu and flu in humans. The study, “Epitope-Optimized Vaccine Elicits Cross-Species Immunity Against Influenza A Virus,” describes a vaccine that protects against H1N1 swine flu and can also protect against influenza in birds and humans.” – Cindy Gonzalez  – HERE WE GO, ONE JAB TO RULE THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

35 people died the same day as their Covid shot. Authorities did not investigate – “Australians are routinely assured that deaths arising from Covid vaccination are vanishingly rare, based on the drug safety regulator’s claim that it has identified only 14 deaths linked to vaccination out of more than 70 million doses given. The other thousand plus deaths reported to the Therapeutic Goods Administration’s (TGA) safety surveillance database, the DAEN, are widely assumed to be merely coincidental,” – Rebekah Barnett

NEWS

THE DEEPER DIVE: The China Syndrome of Trade Deals -“Today we got to see what a great deal looks like for America under the Trump Tariff Wars.. Last week I covered how President Trump managed to squeeze a bad deal for the US out of the UK with his trade war—a deal assuring US citizens pay about 8% more in US taxes on all goods purchased from the UK than they had to pay prior to Trump’s Trade Wars. I now have to lay out what a terrible deal for the US Trump just managed to pound out of China. Even more than the UK deal, this one was a win where Trump can boast that he held China’s feet to the fire until he got them to agree to let us tax ourselves 30% on all the vast purchases we get from China, our biggest global trading partner!” – David Haggith

U.S. President Doubts He Must Adhere to the U.S. Constitution – Eric Zuesse

PART 4: IS TRUMP FOR REAL? – “Trump 2.0’s pro-jihadi geopolitics in the context of Trump 1.0 Trump’s policies in the Middle East are now showing a very clear pattern: he is throwing Israel under the bus by doing everything that the jihadis want and none of what Israel needs. This has been unexpected for many. That’s because they have the wrong model of US politics, the wrong model US geopolitics, and the wrong model of Trump.” – Francisco Gil-White  – INTERESTING TAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tax cuts, Gov. Pritzker? – “Gov. Pritzker claims that Democrats cut taxes for everyday people. What tax cuts? Illinoisans are paying the nation’s highest property taxes, the 2nd-highest gas taxes and the highest cell phone taxes. Kiplinger ranks Illinois third in the nation in its list of “least tax-friendly states for middle-class families.” Where are the tax cuts for everyday Illinoisans, Gov. Pritzker?” – Ted Dabrowski and John Klingner  – AS I HAVE SAID BEFORE, PRITZKER, LIKE HIS CLONE/CLOWN IN CALIFORNIA, NEWSOM. BOTH WANT TO BE PRESIDENT. BEWARE OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Democrats Just Can’t Stop Pushing Nonsensical Assault Weapon Bans – “These laws ban guns “in common use,” and no comparable historical analog exists for these bans. But on April 30, Sen. Adam Schiff (D-California) introduced the so-called “Assault Weapons Ban of 2025.” It picks up where his predecessor, Dianne Feinstein, left off. It bans semi-automatic rifles that use detachable magazines and have a barrel shroud, Just a week earlier, Illinois state Sen. Celina Villanueva introduced the “Responsible Gun Manufacturing Act,” which would effectively ban popular Glock semi-automatic handguns. In April, Colorado enacted a law that makes it illegal to buy, sell, and make semi-automatic firearms that have detachable ammunition magazines without time-consuming training, which the governor hopes could cost $200. This push isn’t new.” – John R. Lott, Jr.  – AGAIN CALIFORNIA AND ILLINOIS DEMOCRATS WANT TO TAKE AWAY RIGHTS. IS IT ANY WONDER, THE WAY THESE STATES GOVERN THAT PEOPLE WANT TO LEAVE!!!!

Count me in this camp – “Nothing the Democrats do is evil enough to gain notice, and nothing Republicans do is benign enough not to be noticed and spun negatively. So, if that’s the hand you’re going to deal the right, then expect the right to play that hand. Trump has absolutely nothing to fear. He’s not likely to be removed from office, and while he might lose Congress in the midterms, that’s actually normal anyway, so it’s hard to really see the benefit of trying to play nice.” – Tom Knighton

Habemus Papam Bob: Chicago’s left field Pope Leo XIV – “Pope Bob is currently enjoying an American honeymoon as the Yankee media surf along on the goodwill tide his election brought to their shores.” – Declan Hayes

Africa’s Lost White Tribe – “Many Boer families had been in South Africa’s Natal Province and Orange Free State since the 1600’s, much longer than black Zulu or Xhosa tribes. They are the real South Africans. America would benefit from offering them new homes. But they deserve to keep their homes in South Africa and Rhodesia (today Zimbabwe). Some were burned and their white occupants murdered. Whites had begun to flee South Africa. So, Trump is right to offer them asylum. But what about Palestinians?” – Eric S. Margolis

Democrats: Millions of illegal aliens are good, handful of South African refugees are bad – “With comical hypocrisy, a CNN panel predictably declared that being “victims of crime” does not “entitle” white South Africans to asylum in the United States. However, Democrats and their media sycophants fervently believe that perpetrators of crimes do deserve asylum in the U.S. Interesting position. Not to mention insane and remarkably evil.” – Eric Utter

Planet of the Fat Black Statues – “Recently, there has been a veritable epidemic of statues suddenly popping up all over the globe, depicting overweight Black females. This is decidedly odd, as the figures don’t represent a particular person of historical significance, but rather a modern “Woke” phenomenon of a brand of human being; the loud and proud Black woman. One of these statues, incredibly enough, was erected in Italy. If anyone can tell me what significance any Black woman has had on Italian history, I’m willing to listen. It’s hard to tell how many Black female statues there are. A few years back, there were reports of them springing up in Roanoke, Virginia, and South Boston. There were already at least six statues of Harriet Tubman scattered across this country. I doubt that there are six statues of White women collectively in America.” – Donald Jeffries

No, Public TV Isn’t a Constitutional Right – “When Jonathan Capehart says “the government should not interfere with” reporting, he’s right — but he should have stopped there.” – Jon Miltimore

Aimed At Pressuring Big Pharma; Goldman Says Trump’s Drug Exec. Order “Symbolic, Not Substantial” – “The EO’s language is legally cautious. It repeatedly cites the need to act “consistent with law” and lacks clarity on scope—such as whether it applies to Medicare Part B, D, or both. “Overall, while the EO appears intended to create leverage for negotiation with the industry and is likely to increase pressure on companies to announce some concessions, our political economist notes that the process appears to be in early stages and does not expect near-term implementation of the measures contemplated in the EO,”” – Tyler Durden

Another Prophecy About The Great New Madrid Earthquake That Will Divide America In Half Someday In The Future – “In recent years, we have witnessed a lot of noteworthy earthquakes in the heartland of the United States. To me, they are reminders of what is coming. Thankfully, we have not experienced a cataclysmic New Madrid earthquake yet.” – Michael Snyder

SITREP 5/12/25: More ‘Talks’ Games as Russian Machine Barrels Forward – “Again the smokescreen of peace talks tries desperately to overshadow mounting Russian advances. I find it nearly pointless to split hairs over the incessant back and forth ‘negotiations’ charade because it’s all simple posturing from both sides, with each vying to outdo the other in the media in order to present the best face of ‘peace maker’ to their own respective allies.” – Simplicius

Third-Party Mediation Between Russia & Ukraine Is Approaching Its Limits – “Trump is about to be placed into a dilemma due to his unwillingness or inability to coerce Ukraine into Russia’s demanded concessions.” – Andrew Korybko

Here’s What Copper Is Saying About Silver – “As a silver investor and analyst, I closely track copper because of its strong correlation with—and influence on—silver. Silver is unique in that it’s both a precious metal and an industrial one, with industrial demand making up about 55% of total usage. This gives silver price behavior that often mirrors copper, a purely industrial metal. Additionally, there are trading algorithms that arbitrage the silver-copper relationship, reinforcing their tight price connection.” – Jesse Colombo

A Bear Market Rally? Or, Just A Correction? – “A bear market rally represents a short-term increase in stock prices that emerges while the market is in a downward trend. Such price rallies bring forth positive expectations because markets experience significant upward movements throughout several weeks or months. These rallies do not indicate any actual market recovery. They serve as brief interruptions before the dominant downward trend continues.” – Lance Roberts
