THE BIG PICTURE

End of Climate Warming & The Earth Is Shaking – “Instead of reading about record heat, we read on December 9 that a Polar vortex is sending a ‘wrecking ball’ of cold air to the US. The planet’s most extreme cold air flooded into the central and eastern United States last weekend. Europe (and in particular Russia) will be on for truly brutal freezes over the Christmas period, with predictions around 30F below late-December norms — and potentially colder. The long, lucrative climate panic is finally losing its grip. All we have been hearing is record cold, early onset of winter, and too much snow that it embarrasses the global warming mainiacs who predicted no more snow. ” – Dr. Sircus

5 Irish-Inspired Ways to Cheer Up Today (VIDEO) – “I bet you’ve had the experience of feeling a bit blue or even much worse and then reminding yourself that you know some good ways to roust yourself and shake it off. This is an essential life skill, isn’t it, because life is full of highs and lows and even just living in a human body means riding the waves of ups and downs. Today, I want to share with you five Irish ways to cheer up right away – because cheering up means hope and hope brings possibility. ” – Kate Chadbourne

Iain Davis Exposes the Technocratic Dark State (VIDEO) – “From the neoreactionary accelerationists of the Dark Enightenment to the AI-spun social credit web of the NEONERDS, today author and researcher Iain Davis takes us on a whirlwind tour of his new book, The Technocratic Dark State.” – The Corbett Report

Trump Isn’t Building a Ballroom (VIDEO) – “When Trump announced a $300 million ballroom at the White House, something went off in my brain. The pattern recognition part started tingling. Ninety thousand square feet, $300 million, underground construction at a secure government facility. I had heard about something like this before. Something with those exact specifications, that scale, that price point. It took me a minute to place it, but then I remembered: Oracle’s underground data centers in Jerusalem. Built in 2021 for Israeli military intelligence. In October 2025, Trump said something that should have made every journalist in America ask harder questions: “We’re also working with the military on it because they want to make sure everything is perfect. And the military is very much involved in this.” The military is very much involved in this ballroom. Which makes perfect sense if you think about it, because if there’s one thing the Pentagon is known for, it’s their expertise in party planning and floral arrangements.” – Audrey Henson  – WATCH THE VIDEO AND READ THE ARTICLE, GREAT RESEARCH!!!!

Techno-Fascism: Trump Creates ‘US Tech Force’ To Recruit 1,000 ‘Elite’ Employees To Work With Big-Tech To Modernize The Government With AI And Tokenization – “In its continued quest to rapidly infuse AI and automation into nearly every fabric of Americans’ lives, the Trump administration yesterday announced the creation of the official US Tech Force to help in modernizing the government and other federal departments.” – The WinePress

Bill C-9: The Trojan Horse Ottawa Hopes You Don’t Read … Watch the Interview Series Exposing It – “Bill C-9 is being sold as a harmless update to “hate crimes” and “protecting access to cultural and religious spaces.” But the government’s own Charter Statement reveals the truth: This bill quietly expands state surveillance, criminalizes dissent, and introduces life-sentence penalties based on ideology, motive, and interpretation — not actions.” – Connie Shields

The Completely Deluded and Insane Notion That Anything of Value Can Come From Government – “I have discussed the evil nature of government, and that it is a terminal cancer against mankind, for longer than I care to remember. I have refuted over and over again the insane ‘thinking’ that government is necessary. Some in the past (and still today) have stated that government is a necessary evil, but evil is never necessary, and therefore should never be desired as a ruling system.” – Gary D. Barnett

Reject the Bigoted Narrative – “The narrative is clear: if whites hate themselves enough they will cease to exist in a few generations. This will make it better for the majority of people in the world, who are not white. The hatred of whites is acceptable, because all wars have been started and won by white people, therefore, if they are eliminated, brown and black people will be able to win wars and take territory denied to them by the power of white people. Above is the racist narrative. It stems back to the idea that Americans cannot be defeated externally so it must be conquered internally, which has largely been done. At least, the playbook for it is cemented into our educational and societal norms. But before we pull that final veil over the shadow of white hegemony, it might be appropriate to ask the difficult question: Why must we sacrifice our success to accommodate the failure of other cultures?” – T.L. Davis

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Things Both Terrible and Ridiculous – “Father-and-son Indian Muslims opened fire with assault weapons at Australia’s Bondi Beach, killing at least 15, including Israelis, and wounding dozens more, so naturally Prime Minister Albanese’s first reaction is to call for tighter gun laws. No gun control law is going to help you if Mossad wants to do a false flag operation, and this sure looks like one. Besides, it’s just wrong to deprive one’s own citizens of weaponry if you’re going to let genocidal maniacs play on their beaches.” – Ohio Barbarian

Israel Propagandists Are Uniformly Spouting The Exact Same Line About The Bondi Shooting – “They are not trying to stop chants which they perceive as dangerous, they are trying to stomp out criticism of Israel’s genocidal atrocities.” – Caitlin Johnstone

Four Days Later: Brown University Shooter Still At Large As Bizarre Anomalies Mount In Investigation – “Anger mounts as the investigation into the Brown University shooting runs into ongoing hurdles: no identifiable suspect, a series of dead-end leads involving so-called persons of interest, and bizarre anomalies as the probe enters its fourth day.” – Tyler Durden

Something Feels Very Off About the Trump Team’s Rapid Defense of Susie Wiles – “This is raising some serious eyebrows. Earlier today, Vanity Fair published a lengthy piece drawn almost entirely from on-the-record conversations with Susie Wiles herself. When the piece became public, Wiles quickly took to social media to dismiss the article as a “disingenuously framed hit piece on me and the finest President, White House staff, and Cabinet in history.” Was she so naive that she really did not see this hit piece coming? And why would she hand a left-wing outlet ample ammunition to smear the Trump team by supplying them with such derogatory statements? But the truly strange part wasn’t Wiles’ response. It was what came next. Trump’s inner circle and cabinet members rushed in to defend her, and their posts were so exaggerated that it went well beyond helping out an ally; it resembled borderline worship.” – The Vigilant Fox

$14 Trillion and Counting, The Case Against the NGO Status Quo – “The Federal Reserve recently disclosed a figure that should stop any serious observer of American public life in his tracks. As of Q2 2025, US NGOs hold $14.12T in assets. That balance sheet is larger than the combined 2025 GDP of Japan, Germany, and India by roughly 5%. This is not a slogan or a talking point. It is a fact drawn from the Federal Reserve’s own Financial Accounts. One can dispute how the assets are distributed, or how actively they are deployed, but the magnitude itself is no longer debatable. A sector of formally private, tax exempt institutions now commands wealth on a scale normally associated with great powers.” – Amuse on X

The EU’s New Policy Towards Russia’s Seized Assets Isn’t About Helping Ukraine – “The real purpose might be to prevent the US from reaching a deal with Russia per point 14 of its leaked 28-point peace framework to invest a significant sum of its (by-then former) adversary’s EU-seized assets into joint projects, likely energy and rare earths, after the conflict ends.” – Andrew Korybko

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

How to Choose a Bug Out Location – “Building a stockpile of food and supplies in your home (your “bug in” spot) is essential, but in some disaster scenarios, you may have to leave your main residence. This departure may be because your family is in danger from natural or human-caused events. A bug out location (BOL) then is a safe place you can go when you must evacuate. A BOL can be a temporary shelter or a permanent one. It can be a house, an apartment, a cabin, or a tent. For the purpose of this article, we will focus on the location of your BOL rather than the type of structure.” – Tricia Drevets

Urban Escape Gear: The Minimalist’s Guide to City Survival – “Get started now! Most preppers focus on wilderness survival scenarios, but statistically, you’re far more likely to face an emergency in an urban environment.

This pattern repeats in every urban crisis.” – Jason Salyer

How to Defend Without a Gun (When You Are Outnumbered or Surprised) – “Picture the worst case. You are outnumbered, caught off guard, and your firearm is not in reach. That moment tests preparation, not bravado. You can survive with mindset, movement, layers of early warning, and simple tools that are legal to carry. The goal is not to “win a fight.” The goal is to break contact, protect your people, and live.” – Alec Deacon

33 Hygiene Items You’ll Need After The Collapse – “Prepping to survive a disaster often tends to focus on food, water and first aid. Those are all needed, but something that is even more important than food is hygiene supplies. It’s not about looking pretty and smelling good. It’s a real life or death situation. Poor sanitation can lead to death.” – Candi Hanson

The suspects are said to be “members of an offshoot of a pro-Palestinian group dubbed the Turtle Island Liberation Front.” Also in time for the holidays, a suspicious terrorist attack unfolded at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia.

Has Orwell’s 1984 Become Reality? – “Everywhere we look in Western countries, from the United Kingdom, through Europe to America (and even India, whose ‘Orwellian digital ID system’ was lavishly praised by British prime minister Keir Starmer recently), what meets the eye is a set of social conditions exhibiting varying stages of precisely the no-longer-fictional totalitarian state depicted by Orwell in 1984. Needless to stress, this constitutes a warning against totalitarianism with its unapologetic manipulation of information and mass surveillance.” – Bert Olivier

It can pressure or punish opponents by inflicting an economic cost. You know what else punishes opponents who would break my shit? Bullets. That doesn’t mean that shooting people is a valid form of discussion or protest. Property rights are anathema to commies. They don’t want to work for it, but they want it. So they take it.

The United Kingdom, for example, has the highest rate of acid attacks across the West, with 1,244 offenses happening since 2022. Why is this happening?

That is it in a nutshell when it comes to government waste, fraud, and abuse. For today’s Democrats, these aren’t problems to be solved.

At the same time, attention is often focused on dramatic, low-probability events such as economic collapse, EMPs, or pandemics, while far more likely threats are overlooked.” – Danield MacLeod

Fake festive fear – “Well, it just wouldn’t be a modern Christmas without it, would it? Obviously, we are meant to think that there’s been a dangerous upsurge in virulent antisemitism, which we are going to need lots of new laws to prevent (and maybe a war with Iran). More anti-free speech laws, more anti-privacy laws, more surveillance and restrictions – all to keep the terribly persecuted Jewish community safe, of course. It’s just predictable problem-reaction-solution political theatre. I mean, one of the “survivors” of this latest attack (who was horribly wounded, but nevertheless managed to immediately take a selfie whilst crawling to safety) is prominent Israeli human rights lawyer, Arsen Ostrovsky, recognised as one of the most influential Jewish leaders in the world.

Spiritually Awakened People Are Vanishing – “There is something very curious happening right now, and most people haven’t noticed it yet. The ones who have awakened, the ones who have begun to see through the game, are simply vanishing. Not with drama, not with announcements, not with manifestos. They are just quietly stepping back, fading into the edges, choosing silence over the noise. When society divides itself into “us” and “them,” the awakened see both sides shadowboxing. Once you see this, you cannot unsee it. You cannot go back to taking it all seriously. You cannot participate in blame, judgment, and righteous anger because you understand it’s all one big projection—a massive game of pointing outward to avoid looking inward. So what does the awakened person do? They withdraw. Not because they hate people, but because staying in the game means betraying what they’ve seen.” – Brett Hawes

No Safe Haven For Narco-Terrorists – “A diagnostic measure of damaged reasoning capacity is the incapacity to recognize one’s own cognitive dissonance – particularly when it is pointed out. I have two examples of the phenomenon. The first is Trump’s braying about what he ominously styles “narco terrorists” and how they must not have “safe haven” anywhere. Well, except here. This is the same Trump who has given safe haven to terrorists who are exactly that – because they actually did terrorize Americans by using the government to push drugs on them. This is something the so-called “narco terrorists” outside of America do not do. Smuggling drugs, yes – which merely means they are transporting their drugs – so we are told – from A to B illegally,” – Eric Peters

Free and Fair? – ““Election denier” is a curious term. It implies that anyone who even questions the validity of an election is not right in the head, maybe even. . . a heretic, a sociopath, a criminal, an enemy of the people! Tina Peters was County Clerk in Mesa County, western Colorado, at the time of the 2020 elections, which Donald Trump won in her county by a 63-percent margin, though “Joe Biden” won the state. Tina Peters sought evidence that the machines were capable of being manipulated by wireless internet. She made copies of the hard drives and published passwords online, exposing proprietary software and sensitive system information. She was indicted in 2022 on 13 counts and convicted in August of 2024 on seven counts. Judge Matthew Barrett threw the book at her, handing the then-69-year-old grandmother a nine-year stretch in state prison. Rather harsh treatment, wouldn’t you say? For months, Mr. Trump’s Department of Justice attempted to intervene in the Tina Peters case and, at least, get her moved into a safer federal prison. Colorado officials fought all that. So, last week, Mr. Trump issued a pardon for Tina Peters.” – James Howard Kunstler

And when the host nations themselves invite it in with open arms, defending and excusing it, what then are we to call that? I’m not going to answer this question. but I think you should. because we are playing with the most dangerous of fire here and the stakes are about as high as stakes get.

Ambassador Mike Huckabee Strikes Again – “Let’s stop participating in and covering for Israeli crimes. So Israel, which has killed hundreds of Gazans, many of them children, since the so-called Ceasefire was declared on October 11th, has now stated that it is currently intending to maintain its “yellow line” occupation of more than half of the Gaza Strip. That will likely eventually make most of Gaza de facto part of Israel and the Palestinians who once upon a time lived there are shit out of luck, as the old saying goes. And as for those benighted creatures who actually believe that ceasing fire means one must stop shooting it is perhaps past time to ask the man behind the “Peace Plan” which bears the name “Trump” what is going on. ” – Philip Giraldi

EU Sanctions Swiss Intelligence Expert Jacques Baud – “The European Union is trying to eliminate sources of information that do not confirm with its official interpretation of real world events. One of the latest persons hit with official EU restrictions is the former Swiss intelligence official and author Jacques Baud: Baud is not writing fantasies. There are footnotes on nearly every page of his books with links to the sources. His analyses are objective and well founded. That of course does not sit well with a EU officialdom that is living in a fantasy world where Russia is so weak that its economy will crash the next month and so strong that it will conquer Europe by next summer. Such Russophrenia is used for a power grab by technocrats and the dismantling of the last traces of democracy in Europe.” – Moon of Alabama

THE DEEPER DIVE: Shoppers Feel the Pinch of the Grinch, Farmers Feel the Folly – “70% of Americans now understand what is really happening in the US economy, and they SERIOUSLY don’t like it. Under a chaotic government where real data just isn’t available, even the Fed no longer trusts what little data is coming out. Trump showed back in 2016 that he understands how this all works: “They’re keeping the rates artificially low so the economy doesn’t go down,” Trump said in response to a question about a potential rate hike by the Federal Reserve this month. “So that Obama can say he did a good job. That’s the only reason that the rates are so low. They’re keeping the rates artificially low so that Obama can go out and play golf after January and say that he did a good job. But it is a very, a very false economy.” Uh huh, and what does Trump plan to do now, then. The same thing … obviously. “We have a very false economy,” he repeated. Yes, we do!” – David Haggith

Faith in the Hard Times: How Worldviews Shaped Their Survival – “In every crisis, people reach for the beliefs that live deeper than fear. The strongest survivors in American memory did this as a matter of course. Pioneer families opened the day with Scripture and closed it with hymns. Native tribes leaned on ceremonies that tied every person to land, kin, and Creator. Amish communities lived their creed with shared work and mutual aid. These worldviews did more than comfort. They organized labor, set conduct, and kept minds steady when supplies ran thin and danger pressed close. Preppers who want staying power should study that pattern. Food and shelter keep the body alive. Faith and community keep the will to act.’ – Alec Deacon

His Name Is John – “While Jesus is of course the essential figure in the Nativity story, John the Baptist is hardly insignificant. John was significant enough to warrant the angel Gabriel visiting his father in the Holy of Holies. John was significant enough that God chose to make the barren Elizabeth fertile that she might give birth to him. John himself declared that he was the “voice in the wilderness” foretold by the prophet Isaiah, the one calling the nation of Israel to repentance, and to make ready for the coming of the Messiah.” – Peter Nayland Kust

AI is a Crock – “Never has humanity expended so much on an endeavor for which it will receive so little as the Artificial Intelligence (AI) project. At root, the problem is that although AI can answer a seemingly infinite number of questions, it can’t ask a single one. It can be programmed to spot and attempt to resolve conflicts within data, but it doesn’t autonomously ask questions. From birth, the human mind is an autonomous question generator; it’s how we learn.” – Robert Gore

As is Trump, I’m a 50’s male, and I knew his type back then—an incurious lot, without connection to arts or ethics, soliciting laughs by belittling others. Verbal bullies, going after the weak—who would never to take on a peer. Trump is unwilling to lose.

Last week, the Department of Homeland Security issued one of its most sweeping restrictions on immigration to date, ordering a pause of all immigration applications from nationals of Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela and 16 other so-called “high risk” countries. In the statement, Salazar — one of only a few Cuban Americans in Congress — said the new policy amounted to “collective punishment” of “the innocent for the sins of the guilty.” “Freezing asylum, green card, and citizenship processes is not the answer. It punishes hardworking, law-abiding immigrants who followed every step of the legal process,”” – Mish

She started screaming. They didn’t rob her. They didn’t take anything from her.

Not only has the average price for a new vehicle breached $50,000 (that’s the freaking AVERAGE!!!!!!), but the maff challenged masses are financing $41,000 of this cost for 6 years at 7% to 8%. That means the average new car “purchaser” is paying about $750 per month for an asset whose value declines every day. We supposedly have a strong economy, with low unemployment. If so, why would auto loan delinquencies be at the levels of the 2008/2009 great financial crisis, and rising?

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

Now we play our final hand
Move in closer, understand
This time like never before
Only the black queen scores
A card so high and so wild
We should burn it

The luck of a thousand stars
Can’t get me out of this
The luck of a thousand stars
Losing its charm

There are people I have loved
Hypnotized by lies
In defensive disguise
Some say protect and survive
I say it’s over

The luck of a thousand stars
Can’t get me out of this
The luck of a thousand stars
Losing its charm

Hold me through the darkest night
I feel secure in your arms
While all the city’s on fire
It’s not between you and me
But we are losing

The luck of a thousand stars
Can’t get me out of this
The luck of a thousand stars
Can’t get me out of this
The luck of a thousand stars
Losing its charm

Social Engineering a Spiritual Death (VIDEO) – “Experiments conducted at the National Institute of Mental Health by behavioral researcher, John B. Calhoun, began in 1947 with the Rockville “Rat Colony” experiment in which a quarter-acre outdoor enclosure was built to house wild Norway rats. During the “Rat Universe” experiment of 1958 to 1962, where the enclosure was indoors and built much smaller, John Calhoun coined the term, “behavioral sink,” as the phenomenon that occurs when rats become over-crowded, they begin to socially withdrawal, turn homosexual, and act more aggressive. Calhoun was saying that if you diminish a creature’s spirit, it will lose its survival instincts. He saw how this would effect life for humans, and said that the establishment would have to change in order to avoid social breakdown in crowded human environments. Studies have shown that people who live in large cities are less happy and have less meaningful lives than those who live in small towns. For many of us, it is no surprise to learn that living like pets in large crowded cities is unhealthy for humans. But for the establishment, it’s big business. ” – Greg Reese  – ANOTHER GOOD SHORT WATCH FROM GREG!!!

His grandmother expressed astonishment at the news, and called him “slow.” I’m sure she’s old- that’s how they used to talk in America 1.0. She also said he is “kind of autistic.” Sounds like a typical alleged school shooter, except for the being Black part. The FBI, on the other hand, said that Cole had “anarchist” leanings. A Black autistic anarchist? Now, that’s diversity. One article claimed that he hated both political parties. Well, lots of us do. But very few of us are Black autistic anarchists.

The Fed is Doing This… Whether We Like It or Not – “The Fed is printing money again. Why is the Fed doing this? Because the U.S. is adding $1 trillion in new debt every 100 days. The Fed can either induce a melt-up via inflation… or let the bond bubble burst, triggering a crisis. The Fed is chose options #1.” – Graham Summers, MBA

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Old Church, Old Barn: Preserving More Than Just Supplies – “Why this is real preparedness Cans and cartridges matter. So do pews and rafters. Patch a roof and you save more than lumber. You save a meeting place, a teaching place, and a prayer place. Step inside a barn and you feel the hands that lifted it. Sit in a pew and you join voices that carried families through lean years and hard winters. Those lessons keep a town steady when supply lines wobble” – Alec Deacon

What Is Stalking and How Do You Protect Yourself from It? – Madison Heim

When the Lights Go Out, Who’s Watching Your Property? Winter Security for Canadian Preppers – “As winter tightens its grip across much of Canada, most people focus on staying warm and keeping the lights on. For preppers, however, winter introduces a quieter but equally important concern: security. Long nights, reduced visibility, fewer people outdoors, and weather-related distractions create ideal conditions for theft and opportunistic crime, especially during power disruptions or storms.” – denob

10 Alternatives To Everyday Items When The Stores Are Empty – Brian Lassitter

Long Distance Bug Out Planning: What It Actually Takes to Travel Hundreds of Miles Safely – “There’s a reason seasoned preppers treat long distance bug out planning with a different level of respect. Covering hundreds of miles isn’t just a longer version of a short evac; it’s a logistical gauntlet where fatigue, fuel, fear, and friction all stack up against you.” – Bob Rodgers

THE BIG PICTURE

Paging Dr. Mengele: when compassion becomes murder – “A century ago, Germany softened the ground for euthanasia with empathic, moral language; we know where that landed. The exact same script is rearing its head in the West. It doesn’t take a global war for a country to lose hope. In Canada, the legalization of euthanasia — Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD), as proponents prefer to frame it — began as a way to provide a dignified end for the terminally ill. It has since expanded to include the chronically ill, the disabled, and the mentally ill. Proposals are already on the table to extend MAiD to “mature” minors and to allow individuals to file advance requests for euthanasia before any diagnosable physical or mental disease even exists. There’s even debate in Quebec about legalizing MAiD for babies with “severe deformities.”” – Collapse Life

Gutless Vaccine Hustlers Paul Offit and Peter Hotez Dodge Debate With Critics (Again) – “Paul Offit, Peter Hotez blow off invitations to join CDC committee meeting on hepatitis B vaxx for infants The two most prominent vaccine pimps in the nation, Paul Offit and bloated diabetic Peter Hotez, who are all too happy to spout their talking points in safe spaces on cable news and legacy print media, recently declined arguably the biggest opportunity ever to confront their ideological opponents — to debunk, once and for all, for the world to see, the “anti-vaccine conspiracy theorists,” mano a mano.” – Ben Bartee

Sticks and Stones – “Free Speech UK, R.I.P.. The birthplace of the Magna Carta (1215) and the Bill of Rights (1689) further disgraced itself last month when a mother-of-four was convicted of a “homophobic hate crime” by a UK court after texting an “offensive” word in a private text message. To be clear, no sticks or stones were used (at least not by the accused). Moreover, the naughty name, which we shall come to in a second, was not even directed at the recipient of the message. But wait, it gets much worse…” – Joel Bowman  – “BIG BROTHER” U.K!!!!

Israeli ‘Predator’ Smartphone Spyware Exposed – ” Intellexa’s menacing technology allows government customers to access target smartphones’ cameras, microphones, encrypted chat apps, emails, GPS locations, photos, files, browsing activity, and more. It’s just the latest example of an Israeli-linked spyware specialist acting with no consideration for the law” – Kit Klarenberg – “BIG BROTHER” ISRAEL!!!!

The Kill Grid: Electro-Magnetic Radiation, Chemical Synergy, and the Hidden Toll -“This is not about viruses or lab leaks. This is about the cumulative electromagnetic and chemical load that is now everywhere — and almost nowhere measured. The Four Toxins That Work Together. 1. Aluminium (geo-engineering fallout, vaccines, cookware) 2. Glyphosate (Roundup in food, soil, rain) 3. Fluoride (water, toothpaste, pharmaceuticals) 4. Electro-magnetic radiation (Wi-Fi, 4G, 5G, satellites) Alone, each is harmful. Together, they are synergistic — the damage is not 1+1+1+1 = 4, it is 1×10×100×1000. Peer-reviewed science backs the synergy:” – Neil of Eaarthnet & Grok in Familiar Mode

The Unserious States of America – “We are not a constitutional republic, because in order to be one, the constitution must be applied, respected and all rights therein honored. No one in America believes that’s true of the United States today. Because it’s not true. Judges, congress and the president operate largely unbridled, even when their actions are patently absurd. We are not a serious nation, but then, no one is. None of the current nations in Europe give a damn about their traditional roots, their Magna Carta or any of it. It’s sort of a process of reducing all humanity to the lowest possible denominator. No one in government, on any level that I can see, wonders how the people will take some onerous law or mandate or directive. They just swallow it.” – T.L. Davis

Pete Hegseth: War Criminal – “There is absolutely no doubt about it: Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Admiral Mitch Bradley are war criminals. So is President Donald Trump. The premeditated killings of unarmed, noncombatant civilians in boats off the coast of Venezuela are war crimes under international law and murder under the U.S. Law of War, the Uniform Code of Military Justice and the U.S. Constitution. All three of these men should be tried as war criminals and sent to prison. Conservatives and evangelical Christians profess to be pro-law and order. But the Trump administration has proven that these two groups are NOT pro-law and order. They are as selective and biased regarding the rule of law as any of those on the political or ideological Left. They only care about law and order when it pertains to the opposite political party. Office holders within their own party (Republican) are free to commit the most heinous crimes known to man with not just impunity but also with their unequivocal support.” Chuck Baldwin

Will CentCom Condemn This Blatant Act Of Piracy? – “U.S. Central Command – Press Release Nov. 16, 2025: TAMPA, Fla. – U.S. Central Command forces monitored an incident involving [Country] forces illegally boarding and seizing a Marshall Islands-flagged tanker transiting international waters in the Strait of Hormuz, Nov. 14. M/V Talara was seized after being boarded by [Country] forces who arrived by helicopter. [Country] operatives then steered the tanker to [Country’s] territorial waters where the ship remains. [Country’s] use of military forces to conduct an armed boarding and seizure of a commercial vessel in international waters constitutes a blatant violation of international law, undermining freedom of navigation and the free flow of commerce. We call on [Country] to articulate to the international community the legal basis for its actions. U.S. forces will continue to remain vigilant and work alongside our partners and allies to promote regional peace and stability. I am now waiting for CentCom’s statement on this: U.S. seizes oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela, escalating tensions – CBS, Dec 10 2025” – Moon of Alabama

After weeks of war rhetoric from the ‘Peace President,’ Trump escalates Venezuela standoff by seizing oil tanker – “US seizes Venezuelan oil tanker as it leaves port while continuing questionable policy of shooting and killing alleged ‘narcoterrorists’ on sight without providing evidence of drug trafficking.” – Leo Hohmann

DEA Cartels, Trump’s Narco Empire, and Netanyahu’s Panic (VIDEO) with Max Blumenthal – “Trump’s “law and order” shtick collapses when his DOJ pardons a Honduran narco-tyrant while DEA and CIA veterans run gear for a Mexican cartel and get tossed in the same dungeon where Epstein vanished. Netanyahu, meanwhile, flirts with war on Lebanon to dodge prison, leans on Mossad-style sex smears against the ICC, and banks on U.S. empire to keep his corrupt, genocidal regime afloat—from Eurovision to Caracas and Tegucigalpa.” – Judge Andrew Napolitano

New York Times Wants The US Military Built Up For War With China – “Just as the United States hits its first official trillion-dollar annual military budget, the New York Times editorial board has published an article which argues that the US is going to need to increase military funding to prepare for a major war with China.” – Caitlin Johnstone

The $8 Billion Lie: Minnesota’s Somali Community is a $4B Annual Taxpayer Burden – “What looks, at first glance, like a stunning contribution turns out, on closer inspection, to be a classic confusion between gross activity and net benefit. When we correct that confusion, the picture is stark. A community of roughly 100,000 Somali Minnesotans imposes an annual net cost on the state on the order of $3.6B to $4.2B. The $8B talking point survives only by ignoring the cost side of the balance sheet.” – Amuse on X

Federal Government Spending $20,474 Per Person, 98 Times More than in 1916 – “Americans feel they’re suffering an affordability crisis, despite the federal government spending more on them than ever before. Washington is spending 98 times more per U.S. resident than it was during the World War I era, just over a century ago. No, that is not all due to inflation; that is the real growth in federal spending  per capita since 1916, adjusted to today’s dollars. Things used to be much different. In 1916, the federal government spent a mere $208.36 per person in today’s dollars. Since then, the trend line has gone upward almost uninterrupted.” – Open The Books

J.B. Pritzker and the Act of Choosing Sides – “On Tuesday, Dec. 9, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker confirmed the status of Illinois as a state in open rebellion against the United States of America, by signing a bill passed by the state legislature during the recent veto session (HB 1312), forbidding federal authorities from enforcing federal law – including but not limited to immigration law – at a host of locations in Illinois, Gov. Pritzker would, of course, disagree with the above characterization; he and his corrupt party have long contended that it’s the federal government that’s in violation of the law, by daring such basic tasks as law enforcement and protecting the borders, but they aren’t fooling anyone anymore.” – John F. Di Leo

Mass Collective Societal Suicide – “The United States and many other formerly western white developed world countries have been in the process of committing mass collective societal suicide for the past thirty five years, with a rapid acceleration over the last several years.

The Cost Of Real Food – “Everyone who buys food knows that food costs a third to twice as much as the same food did just five years ago. But real food costs the most now. That is, single ingredient foods such as butter (just butter, not “butter” with canola or some other oil) and meat that isn’t plumped up with injected brine from an animal fed genetically modified corn. Cheese that is just cheese – without sawdust to add bulk (and yes, they do that). The cost of eating such food – vs. not-food (and Frankenfood) is becoming exorbitant. There is good news, though for those who understand the value of real food. It is that restricting what you eat to real food will result in good health and that can mean not needing to spend a great deal more money on what is marketed as health insurance. The term is specious as well as something worse. In the first place, it is not possible to insure that anyone will remain healthy. What you’re paying for is the promise that if you become not-healthy (as a result of eating Not Food) the insurance will “cover” the costs of the medical treatment you need to restore your health.” – Eric Peters

We’re talking about “Lie-n-tology,” the brainchild of “El Ron Cupboard,” a failed sci-fi writer who performed sex magic rituals with Aleister Crowley disciples to summon the Whore of Babylon and then decided to monetize the demons that showed up.” – Lily-Rose Dawson

SARS-CoV-2 Furin Cleavage Site Sits At Exact Amino Acid Residue Location Designated by 2018 DEFUSE Document – “Human and Moderna-linked genetic sequences match the “PRRA” insert exactly—and the site appears precisely where EcoHealth’s 2018 DEFUSE plan proposed adding a furin cleavage site. The plan was written up by the University of North Carolina’s Dr. Ralph Baric, These facts raise the unmistakable possibility that the pandemic pathogen’s most consequential feature did not arise through natural evolution but through deliberate laboratory manipulation.” – Jon Fleetwood

Why We Fail – “No wonder the world seems deranged–it is deranged by the immense strength of an Old Guard clinging onto power by any means available even as the world around them spins into incoherence. There are many reasons why we fail, but perhaps the most critical one is continuing to do more of what has failed.” – Charles Hugh Smith

Make No Mistake: They Fear Tulsi Most of All – “or: How the Estrogenic Empire Finally Met a Matriarch Who Remembers the Old Ways and Won’t Kneel. They’re afraid of Tulsi Gabbard. Not because she’s carried a rifle. Not because she’s known fire. They’re afraid because she’s the answer. The Matriarch returned. Not a harlot or harpy consort beside the throne—the figure behind it, in the shadows where the real power lives. The one who leans forward and whispers, and the world changes. She’s our living memory. A matriarch in all the old ways.” – E.M. Burlingame

Trump sends shockwaves through Latin America as he hints TWO more nations are in his sights for a Venezuela-style crackdown – “Donald Trump did not rule out expanding US military operations beyond Venezuela to Mexico and Colombia. The president said in a interview taped this week that he would consider using military force on two US allies in Latin America. Trump cited Mexico and Colombia’s drug trade into the US as he continues threatening to overthrow Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. Mexico is the primary country for trafficking a variety of narcotics, including heroin, fentanyl and cocaine, into the US. Colombia is the largest producer of the latter substance.” – Phillip Nieto

The Hegseth Killings Must Stop – “To date the US government has provided no evidence to back up its claim that these boats are smuggling fentanyl and other dangerous drugs into the United States. The US Drug Enforcement Administration has reported that Venezuela neither manufactures nor transports fentanyl to the US. In fact, the DEA still concludes that Venezuela is barely a minor player in the drug game. Is this really about drugs? Or is it about “regime change” for Venezuela?” – Ron Paul  – OF COURSE IT’S ABOUT REGIME CHANGE!!!

MAGA–Make America Greedy Again – “The U.S. has drifted so far from its idealized vision of itself as a shining city on a hill. Now it’s MAGA, as in make America greedy again, lusting for power and eager for ever-growing profits, often from the sale of weapons around the world. We’re denying the sheer destructiveness of what we do—and it isn’t going to end well.” – Bill Astore

The reality of self-defense law – “Self-defense law isn’t what you think. Understand I’m not dispensing legal advice, merely providing general information. It’s vital you read and understand the law wherever you live and travel. In essence, deadly force is lawful if a reasonable person would believe they’re facing an imminent threat of serious bodily injury or death to self or another. If those elements are present, one need not wait to absorb the first blow, gunshot or knife thrust.” – Mike McDaniel

Ozempic Chic: Skeletal Is the New Black – “(Apparently body positivity is taking an extended smoke break.) Scroll any red carpet, awards show, or press tour and you’ll notice it immediately: bodies are shrinking. Dramatically. Alarmingly. In record numbers. Even certain celebrities who spent the last decade preaching self-love, body acceptance, and the radical idea that women shouldn’t beat themselves up for not measuring up to some impossible beauty standard are suddenly sporting collarbones sharp enough to slice cheese.” – Jenna McCarthy

This Is How China Is Rapidly Becoming The World’s Most Dominant Economic Superpower – “Despite everything that has happened this year, China has run a trade surplus of more than a trillion dollars for the first time ever in 2025… This is what economic dominance looks like. If you want to have a great economy, you have got to be great at making stuff. And China is better at making stuff than anyone else. China sells far more stuff to the rest of the world than it buys from the rest of the world, and that means that it has far more money coming in than it does going out.” – Michael Snyder

THE DEEPER DIVE: The US is Being Destroyed by its Debt. What Stops the Fed from Soaking it All up and Destroying the Debt? – “David Stockman has written an article that describes in historic perspective how big the national debt has become, how it is going to crush the US economy in the fairly close future and how the Fed is going to feel enormous pressure to solve the problem by “monetizing the debt,” which means buying it all up and turning it into what the Fed calls “money.” Stockman’s article was more about laying out the scale of the problem and how we got there.” – David Haggith

How to Invest As the U.S. Becomes a Banana Republic – “The U.S. is rapidly turning into a banana republic. All the signs are there: Phony (or unpublished economic data). Rampant corruption. Loose monetary policy/ currency devaluation. Let’s start with #1. Rather than publishing fake data like China, the U.S. has simply stopped publishing its economic data. The alleged reason is that the government shutdown, but we all know that if the data was good, the Trump administration would have found a way to publish it. After all, as the President routinely claims, the economy is fantastic and arguably the best of all time. The lack of economic data is not the only thing pointing towards the U.S. becoming a banana republic.” – Graham Summers, MBA

The Fed decision is expected to feature a rate cut and a lot more. Here’s what to expect – Jeff Cox

If this was the only data point they looked at, they’d be hiking tomorrow not cutting – Peter Boockvar
