THE BIG PICTURE

The Obvious Government Plot to Intentionally Cause Protest and Set-Up Riots – “Note: I just wrote and published this article in June of this year, just a few months ago. Consider if you will, what has happened since this article was first posted. There has been one event after another causing more division and hatred, which has led to nationwide internal turmoil, and threats of vast civil unrest. Trump’s martial law has greatly expanded, staged shootings have taken place causing more fear and loathing of one another, and now the Charlie Kirk fraud and most likely fake shooting has turned this country into despising each other at every juncture. This is exactly what was sought by the controllers, and the gullible and indoctrinated populace went along like a herd of sheep, and did just as they had been tricked and guided to do. Now it will get much worse from here.” – Gary D. Barnett – LINKED IT THEN RELINKING AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Real Violent Extremists Are The Freaks Who Run The US Empire – “I think it’s worth remembering this as the empire harnesses the emotional hysteria around Charlie Kirk’s death to whip up a moral panic about violent radical leftists in the United States in order to justify increased authoritarian measures to stomp out political dissent. The extremists who are inflicting the real violence and abuse in our world are the ones committing genocide, starting wars, backing blockades, imposing starvation sanctions, arming proxy conflicts, circling the planet with hundreds of military bases, and flirting with nuclear armageddon.” – Caitlin Johnstone – GOOD ONE FROM CAITLIN!!!

The Screw Your Freedoms Man, Again – ““I am big believer that we have to do something about pollution,” the former governor of California explained. It is always the presumptive (and royal) “we.” By which he means you and I will be forced to “do something” to assuage his belief about the “climate changing. We – you and I – already know Arnold is one of those Republicans who believes pretty much everything Leftists say must be believed. Including that late business about wearing “masks” and imprisoning the populace and coercing unwilling victims to submit to medical procedures because “COVID.” That told us a great deal about who Arnold is. As opposed to the people he portrayed. Many of us made the mistake of believing – based on his acting – that he was a guy who opposed The Man. We – you – and I – found out that Arnold was only posing, like so many entertainers. He is no longer acting. The real Arnold is on the stage now. The one that was always there. The one who pretended to be the brawny defender of – yes – our freedoms.” – Eric Peters

Do You Know What Starts During A Great Awakening? Massive Unstoppable Positive Change – “Revolution doesn’t cover it. Not even close. So I look, I search for signs. For instance, they saved the ostriches yesterday in the demented Dominion, but it took the Supreme Court to do it and that only temporarily. A more craven cowering Supreme Court it would be hard to find, but the public outcry was, for once, convincing. Our government agencies are all jack-booted genocidal maniacs and it’s not just birds they want to kill. The Journal of Death and Dying this week reported that Health Canada plans to save $1.73 trillion from 2027-2047 by persuading 14.7 million (nearly half the country) Canadians to accept medically assisted dying. Our replacements will be the 100 million Muslims they plan to import from the Middle East and Africa. Think I’m kidding? Not even a little bit. That is the stated policy of the Liberal Party of Canada.” – Elizabeth Nickson

The Tylenol Fiasco – “What do we make of recent claims about Tylenol and Autism? Mainstream media largely covered the topic, casting severe doubt on the subject, turning it political, and pretending that legal courts have somehow already proved that this is an outrageous claim. This is the same mainstream media that for decades told us that Glyphosate was generally safe because Monsanto’s science and government regulators bought by Monsanto said so. So I began to look at the claim. Not the social media posts, not the simplified takes from either side, but the claim itself.” – Joe Martino

What do The Powers That Be have to lose? – “Actually … everything.” – Bill Rice Jr.

The Exploding Microphone/Battery Pack Theory of KirkGate – “Deep in the weeds now” – Sage Hana – HADN’T HEARD THIS THEORY OR SEEN THE EVIDENCEE YET, AND IF INDEED THERE WAS AN EXPLODING MICROPHONE BATTERY PACK, WHO WOULD THAT IMPLICATE. LET’S SEE, HMM, WHO MADE THOSE PAGERS EXPLODE!!!!!!

Chemotherapy: Fraudulent and Deadly? – “When you consider that chemotherapy can kill and does terrible damage to healthy cells, and to the immune system, it is difficult to see the value of taking chemotherapy. I don’t think it is any exaggeration to suggest that much of the hype around chemotherapy has taken the treatment into the area of fraud – far more fraudulent indeed than treatments which are dismissed as irrelevant or harmful by the establishment. Chemotherapy is a cull, designed by the conspirators and the medical establishment to cut the cost of caring for cancer patients.” – Dr. Vernon Coleman

US Nears Highest Cancer-Rate Around The World – Tyler Durden – THINK ABOUT THIS, WHY IS IT? IT’S BECAUSE CANCER IS BIG BUSINESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPDATE: Israel’s Increasing Isolation – Kit Knightly

How Bibi Created A Palestinian State – “The explicit goal of the October 7 attacks was the creation of a Palestinian state. For Netanyahu, the penny has dropped – former Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar checkmated him. Bottom line: Netanyahu’s malicious ignorance has helped to create the thing he always hated most, a Palestinian state. The question now is whether Hamas can transform this political victory into a distinct geographical entity with its own borders, independent governing body, and sovereign control over its own territory.” – Mike Whitney

As Israel Becomes a Global Pariah Trump Ramps Up Support – “Zionist billionaires allowed to expand their control of the media. It is interesting how President Donald Trump keeps whining about the 20 alleged Israeli hostages that are reportedly still held by Hamas in Gaza, demanding that they be released immediately, while ignoring the hundreds of unarmed Palestinians that are being murdered daily by Israeli military and armed contractors as well as by deliberate starvation. Also, the thousands of Palestinians who had nothing to do with Hamas or Gaza and are nevertheless being held without charge in Israeli prisons under horrific conditions including torture are of no interest to the US president and his team.” – Philip Giraldi

The Secretary of War Crimes – “When the civilian at the head of the Department of Defense is a public cheerleader for war crimes, that sends a message to everyone in the military that similar conduct won’t be punished. Pete Hegseth loves war criminals past, present, and future:” – Daniel Larison

ECONOMIC NEWS

How We Got Here: A Brief History of America’s Banking System – “President Reagan famously said that the closest thing to eternal life on this earth is a government agency. Surely that aphorism applies to the Federal RESERVE. And most especially when you put a Trumpian ALL CAPS focus on the “reserve” part of its title. That is to say, the purpose of the 1913 act had nothing to do with the Fed’s present-day “goals” with respect to inflation, unemployment, economic growth, housing starts, business capex, or any other aspect of the ebb and flow of commerce on Main Street. Instead, the Federal Reserve Act’s far more modest remit was to fix the badly flawed “reserve” arrangements of the National Banking Act that good old Abe Lincoln and his Treasury Secretary Salmon P. Chase had put into place to finance the civil war.” – David Stockman

The gold ‘fear trade’ is on – “The fear trade has to do with demonetization, currency destruction, and negative real interest rates (interest rates minus inflation), which are usually gold positive. A newer term would be de-dollarization, as central banks around the world dump dollars and US Treasuries for other currencies and precious metals.” – Richard Mills

Inflation Is in Services despite Powell’s Denials: PCE Price Index for Core Services Accelerated Further. Durable Goods Prices Fell for 2nd Month – Wolf Richter

The People Who Can Literally Print Money Are Loading Up on Gold – “Policymakers at central banks claim that debt levels remain manageable, but their actions speak much more loudly than their words. Case in point, over the last five years, central banks have been on a buying binge, not for stocks or bonds, but for GOLD. For centuries, gold has been an inflation hedge. What does it tell you about what’s coming that the people who can print dollars, euros, yen, etc. are loading up on gold? Indeed, for the first time in decades, central banks own MORE gold than they do U.S. Treasuries.” – Graham Summers, MBA

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Can You Join the Amish? – “Most people look at the Amish like they’re living in a museum—horses, buggies, and butter churns. But here’s the truth nobody says out loud: the Amish aren’t stuck in the past. They’re free. No bills, no credit scores, no endless chains to the grid or Wall Street. And that freedom is exactly why you’re asking the question: can you join them? The short answer: yes – but not the way you think.’ – Ask A Prepper Staff

I have a list of (I had thought) every battery device, and its location, along with a hidey-hole for the batteries to replace those that require them.” – Reltney McFee – GOOD IDEA.
