T HE BIG PICTURE
Is God Love? – “Is it true? The cynically-inclined are sure to doubt the proposition. We have but to look around the world to see an endless list of challenges to the notion that “God is love.” We have endless war in Ukraine. We have endless war in the Middle East. We have India and Pakistan endlessly menacing each other with nuclear weapons. We have disease. We have poverty. We have hunger. How, comes the question, can a loving God create such misery? How does a God who is supposed to be synonymous with love cause endless human suffering?God created this world. God created us to be in this world. God created us to be in this world together, that we may prevail against the challenges and obstacles of this world. ” – Peter Nayland Kust
Never Forget – Climate Change was an Invention of the Rockefellers – “It was a psy-op. It was a lie, every word. This is how they did it. In the climate change arena, the Rockefellers call the shots. The whole thing was their idea, they took a silly but interesting theory and amped it up with hundreds and hundreds of million of dollars. They founded institutions and linked the survival of those institutions to promoting climate change and population reduction. They adopted one likely politician after another.” – Elizabeth Nickson – VERY INTERESTING READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bioterror Roundup: ‘An Apple a Day Keeps the Robot White-Coats Away’ – Dr. Oz: AI to replace doctors in Medicare, Medicaid provision” I’m of two minds on this. On one hand, good riddance to the majority of doctors out there— especially ones working for large healthcare systems, all the company men and women out there doing what they have to do to get paid, never rocking the boat — who proved themselves during COVID, beyond the possibility of redemption, as nothing more than rubber-stamps for pre-established protocols written by the pharmaceutical industry. On the other hand, handing responsibility over to literal AI instead of de facto AI in a human skinsuit removes all morality and human empathy from the equation ” – Ben Bartee
Insuring us Out of Driving – “The cost of new vehicles – which now “transact” for about $50k on average – is such that a large and growing number of people can no longer afford them. That’s not so bad, though – right? Because no one has to buy a new vehicle. True. But the cost of insuring the vehicle you have has been going up double digits annually – 25 percent, on average – for the past two years. If this continues, what then? Many people who were paying very little for a liability-only policy – which everyone who owns a car is required by law to buy as the condition of being allowed to drive – are now paying a lot more, even though they have not done anything to justify the double-digit increase in the cost of this coverage, which doesn’t actually cover anything except the hypothetical cost of repairing damage to some other person’s vehicle,” – Eric Peters – ONE OF THE BIGGEST SCAMS THERE IS, WHERE’S THE GOVERNMENT ON THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!
Cockroach milk better than cow’s milk, ‘experts’ say – “A new scheme to get us to eat ze bugs? So what? I’m calling bee ess on this supposed story. What’s more, I can’t stomach it. And are cockroaches mammals? I didn’t think so. But perhaps they’re transitioning. So-called ‘experts’ now claim that cockroach milk is three times more nutritious than cow’s milk? Great, but how does one ‘milk’ a cockroach? And who would milk them? How many cockroaches would it take to equal the milk from one cow — or even from one udder?” – Eric Utter
In Praise of Sheep – “What? The sheeple? They’re all useless idiots! Now, if you’ll join me, let’s explore that concept. Once we get past the knee-jerk reaction that most of us will have to that statement, I think you’ll agree that there is a profound truth in these words. Ah yes, “Wake up, sheeple!” The rallying cry of the Gutenberg 2.0 revolution .Is “sheeple” being used to simply describe those who are sleeping on some important truth? But what if these sheeply “vices” were not in fact vices, but virtues? What if the peaceable nature of the sheep were not seen as a weakness, but a strength?” – James Corbett – GOOD READ FROM JAMES!!!

Los Angeles Braces For Another Day Of Chaos As Newsom Pits Marxist Color Revolution Against Trump Admin – “Los Angeles is bracing for yet another day of what appears to be coordinated rioting sparked by mass arrests of illegals by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The unrest has involved organized elements affiliated with far-left activist cells, including Marxist-aligned nonprofits ” – Tyler Durden

President Trump Confronts Anti-Government Rioters Head-On – “Trump’s Official Policy Towards Anti-Government Violence:. California Democrats (but I repeat myself) are having a hard time understanding one very basic reality: It is a violation of federal law to enter this country illegally, and the remedy prescribed by law is apprehension, detention, and deportation.” – Peter Nayland Kust
Riots in LA against ICE deportations, because California is Northern Mexico – “And that’s why LA Mayor Karen Bass, Governor Hair Gel, the LA police chief, and the LA County Sheriff are on the side of the rioters. California needs MORE immigrants, to justify its status as a Sanctuary State—which happens to be the State religion. It’s a proud religion, headed up by white liberals who can never assuage their guilt.” – Jon Rappoport
It’s Time for America to Stop Saving California From Itself – “As a long-time California resident, it’s hard for me to say that we’re a lost cause, but I’m pretty sure we are.” – JD Rucker
Jews Gone Wild: Wailing at the Wall – “”Hate” in a free society. It has become obvious over the past few years that more and more Americans are questioning not only the wisdom behind our unwavering support of Israel, but Jewish power and influence itself. White conservatives, which in the past were more likely to criticize Israel, have been completely coopted by the Rapture bunch, the ones who enable the Jews’ elitist notion that they are God’s “chosen people.” Every politician who hopes to hold elected office visits the Wailing Wall in Israel, and dons a yarmulke. I’d call it just another humiliation ritual, but I’m sure that would be labeled “anti-Semitic.” The foundation of all the Orwellian “hate speech” nonsense is what has indelicately been referred to as “the Jewish Question.” It is “hate” to question anything about this one special group.” – Donald Jeffries

ECONOMIC NEWS
CENTRAL BANKS AND “A GREAT TAKING.”(VIDEO) – “We have here and I’m going to show you, mainstream financial channel actually raising doubts as to whether or not the economic data that we’re getting fistfed is actually real. Market Watch: How reliable is US economic data. Let me just read some of this to you. Investors have been navigating an increasingly hazy economic outlook and the so-called hard data regarding the state of the economy creeping doubts, their words, creeping doubts about the quality of US economic reports won’t make this task any easier. Look, I mean you got to be seriously out there on another planet to believe that any of the data is correct.” – Gregory Mannarino
Is the U.S. Becoming An Emerging Market? – “Everywhere you look, there are signs. Endemic corruption… a two-tiered society in which more and more wealth is concentrated in the hands of fewer and fewer individuals… jaw dropping levels of debt in every segment of society (corporate, municipal, personal, and of course, national)… phony government data that has no connection to economic realities… a permanent bureaucracy that really runs things, rendering elections almost useless… a weak currency that buys less and less every year… and of course, a class of media gatekeepers who keep telling us everything is fine and that we need to trust decisionmakers. Of all these issues, the $USD poses the greatest concern. The only reason the U.S. has been able to get away with its obscene debt levels is because it controls the reserve currency of the world.” – Graham Summers, MBA
Paying-Off Debt Puts the US Economy at Risk – ” I read an article about a guy who paid-off all his debt and saw his credit rating fall from the 700s to zero. How is that possible? He is of a few fiscally responsible Americans that should be rewarded, not penalized, for saving to pay off debt. But, that’s not the case. Not having a credit rating, he can’t even get new credit cards to build back his credit rating. Out on a walk, I put it together. Every dollar in the economy is created by banks, at the behest of Fed/Treasury, by the issuance of credit—which is actually debt. That’s the model, such that responsible citizens are seen by banking as dead-wood threats. The model probably emanates from 1913—with the creation of the Fed. But, how did banks work before Fed/Treasury issued dollars as debt (supposedly backed by gold)?” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com
