The New Tyrant: Silicon Valley’s Plan To ENSLAVE the World… – “And no one is going to do a damn thing to stop it. It’s bullshit. Anyone with a functioning brain can see it’s bullshit.

Logan’s Run Plus Soylent Green On A Blade Runner Backdrop” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

Give us Liberty or Give us Big Brother – “Shackles of the nanny state. I have come to the conclusion that most of my fellow Americans just don’t like liberty. They don’t recognize or regret how much personal liberty we’ve lost over the last 50 years or so. They opt for rules and regulations over unfettered freedom. It’s all for our own good, of course. We’re just trying to protect you. Don’t you want us to be safe? The corruption we see in America today is unlike any corruption before it. It’s at every level. I see it whenever I traverse one of our crumbling, pothole filled roads. In recent years, they have stopped allowing motorists to turn left on a “leading” green, which was the case for the first four decades or more of my career behind the wheel The bottom line is, our leaders don’t trust the people to be able to do something as mundane as wait until no traffic is coming to execute a left-hand turn. At the same time, more and more traffic lights display a sign proclaiming “No right turn on red.” Again, those who misrule us have taken away the decision making power from the people on even that level.” – Donald Jeffries

Yuval Harari at WEF warns of growing global surveillance system while Donald Trump heralds U.S. advances in AI and crypto, brushing off potential for evil – “President Trump takes time during keynote speech to tout US dominance in AI tech, while praising BlackRock CEO Larry Fink… ‘Everything Larry touches turns to gold!'” – Leo Hohmann

In Davos, Globalists Double Down on ‘Incremental’ Push for New World Order at WEF – “While Trump and his team took a blowtorch to globalism at the World Economic Forum, elites were firm in their resolve that the march towards a new world order will not stop, but patience is key” – Alex Newman

America Officially Withdraws from the World Health Organization – “With the Pandemic Treaty in place, the Gates Foundation and GAVI now fill the power vacuum as top funders — putting WHO member states in danger.” – Nicolas Hulscher, MPH

2026 – The Year US Hegemony Ends? – “Just a couple of hours after I wrote that I hadn’t yet seen the major agenda of Davos 2026, Canadian PM Mark Carney made a speech that suddenly made it clear. So, what is the speech about? It’s about how the US are bad guys, attempting to boss around the world through strength and nothing more. That the “rules-based order” is, and always was, a lie (sort of). That US hegemony is bad and must end. That countries should be independent (but also not really). The takeaway is that this is an important speech. How do we know that? Well, because everyone is saying so. Fluffing Carney’s supposed “realism” and “integrity” has become the hobby of everyone who fancies themselves a liberal, and this clearly signals a shift in narrative. Even some who should know better are buying in, tempted to a mainstream agenda by Carney’s (rather disingenuous) denunciation of the “rules-based international order”:” – Kit Knightly

Carney Declares Death Of The ‘Rules-Based Order’ – “To discard the ‘rules based order’, to expose it as the lie that it has always been, is a good step into the right direction. It is a fundamental change of viewing the world. But we also have to mindful to not fall into The Standing Ovation Trap because such fundamental changes can be abused. Keep in mind that the ‘liberals’, like Carney, who suddenly preach adherence to international law when Trump tries to snatch Greenland, are the same ones who still run cover for every Zionist breach of international law in Palestine:” – Moon of Alabama

POTUS And His Toadies – “Donald Trump’s delusional state mind was on unmistakable display during his rambling press conference Tuesday. As he purported to celebrate the greatest first-year achievements of any President in American history, he actually made if perfectly clear that none of the toadies around him have either the knowledge or gumption to tell him he’s flat-out full of baloney.” – David Stockman

TACO King Makes a Fortune for Him and His – “But what about the rest of us who don’t have a seat at the TACO table? Details are very thin because the only thing that often matters with Trump’s deals is that they give him something to hang his hat on. In terms of really mattering, I know I find it hard to see ANY way in which the US I live in day today has become one bit better after a year of Trump. Just more everyday chaos. I’m not richer. I don’t feel the country is richer. I certainly don’t feel it is more peaceful or secure. I can see NOTHING in what Trump has done that puts us in less of a new world order in exchange for the disrespect of other nations! All he is delivering is a NEW new world order, targeted all the more specifically to the benefit of elite billionaires, which is also a new order focused all around the mercurial Trump and whatever his rage drives him to do on any given Sunday. Trump is building a new world order around himself.” – David Haggith

 – WELL  SAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump’s threats escalate in unreasonableness – “It appears that the so-called Board of Peace does not have peace as its function. Instead, the purpose seems to be to raise billions of dollars to finance Trump’s plan of turning Gaza into an upscale resort. In place of Palestine there will be the Gaza Board of Peace Resort chaired by Donald Trump.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Evangelicals Are Still Fighting Old Covenant Wars – “President Donald Trump has not changed his followers; he has exposed them. Trump’s loyalists know exactly who and what he is—and they don’t care. In fact, in many ways, they like him more because of who and what he is. And what they like most about Trump is that he gives them validation for their own hatred, bigotry and carnality. That’s why it’s useless to try and enlighten Trump’s followers to who and what he is as a means of changing their minds. They know who and what he is. They like him because of who and what he is. They like him because they are just like him. Evangelicals know that Trump is not America-first. They know that he is Israel-first. And evangelicals like Trump for being Israel-first, because they are Israel-first. From the inception of the Zionist state, Zionists have been possessed with the spirit of war. That statement is absolutely, categorically unassailable. ” – Chuck Baldwin

Immigration enforcement: why this time is different – “Adventures in tinfoil cattery and receipt piles. ICE under Obama rounded up and deported millions of people. No one got the vapors. No one cared. Both sides of the aisle applauded. This was an obvious, bipartisan plan, popular, and a staple of democratic party politics. No one called it “fascism” and “literally Hitler.” This dates back to the 90’s (and likely much further as a core political value for the American left.” – El Gato Malo

Remember when Obama said THIS about illegal immigration… (short VIDEO) – Daily Caller  -HOW SOON THE LEFT FORGETS!!!!

45% Of Americans Now Identify As Politically Independent, New Record High, Led By Millennials And Zoomers – ““As usual, more Americans in 2025 described their views as “very conservative” or “conservative” (35%) than as “very liberal” or “liberal” (28%), with 33% identifying as “moderate.”” – The WinePress

The bounty farce: How the Western media rebrands an invasion as a ‘capture’ – “The Western media acts as a PR wing for the Pentagon, turning sovereign nations into crime scenes” – Mustafa Fetouri

Is Israel Preparing Nuclear Bombs for Iran According to “The Samson Option”? – “Last week, Israeli press reported a 4.2 earthquake in Dimona, near a major nuclear facility. There has been speculation that what caused the earthquake was a nuclear bomb explosion underground. Max Blumenthal was interviewed on The Jimmy Dore Show a few days ago where they were discussing the Iran situation, and when he mentioned this earthquake in Dimona within the context of Israel trying to put pressure on Trump to attack Iran, he brought up the topic of “The Samson Option” which has been allegedly used to blackmail U.S. Presidents in the past to gain their military support.” – Brian Shilhavy

Lavrov Warned About The US’ Attempt To Establish Strategic Superiority Over Russia – “Russia has proven that it’s capable of retaining its nuclear second-strike capabilities, but the US’ continued attempt to neutralize them is very unfriendly, which greatly impedes any possible “New Détente” after the end of the Ukrainian Conflict.” – Andrew Korybko

There Is A Huge 30 State US Storm Coming “This Weekend,” Which COULD Leave Millions Without Power: How To Prepare, At A Minimum: And Why Isn’t Anybody Talking About It? – “It’s got that feeling to it—disconnect between “what they’re telling us,” and what might hit us. Since “who-could-have known?” is the favorite feature of the modern PSY OP factory. I’m a little angry at everybody who has low awareness levels about this. When it comes to “storms” I take a straight better-safe-than-sorry approach, as having been overly “alarmed” is not a detriment—just means maybe you are left with extra provisions, and/or life lessons, if it’s not too bad. What does trouble me is that nobody’s talking about this one, and for the first time in my memory, it has no human name—only “Major Winter Storm.”’ – Celia Farber

Animals do not adjust to disruption the way people do.

The Migrant Shelling, Ethnic Cleansing of Ireland Continues Unabated – “Aside from the ethnic cleansing itself of a noble people, the most sadistic aspect of the all-out globalist siege of the Emerald Isle — catapulting wave after wave of weaponized migrants onto its shores — is that Ireland did not participate in any of the historical sins that allegedly justify the same punishment for other European nations. It was neither party to the trans-Atlantic slave trade nor a colonizing power; on the contrary, it valiantly resisted 800 years of brutal British occupation, only to suffer its current national humiliation.” – Ben Bartee

The Democrat Insurrection Moves to Minnesota – “The New Civil War Is Spreading. The Democrat Insurrection has found a new home. Last year it was primarily in California. As 2026 begins, the Democrat Insurrection is in full flower in Minnesota. Any quaint notion that these would be “peaceful” protests ended on January 7, when Renee Good decided to point her vehicle at an ICE agent and stomp on the accelerator. The ICE agent naturally responded by drawing his weapon and firing, killing Ms. Good. When people attack ICE agents, even with snowballs, they are not protesting. They are rioting. When they continue to riot it becomes an uprising, an insurrection. That is where we are now—in an insurrection. It is where we have been since last summer. Minneapolis is merely an extension of what erupted in Los Angeles last year. The insurrection is spreading, steadily becoming a new Civil War in this country. Now, as then, this is the demonstrable handiwork of Democrats. With words and with violence they are seeking to prevent ICE agents from doing their jobs. Now, as then, this is a Democrat-led insurrection.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Minnesota Doesn’t Set America’s Immigration Policy – “Either the federal government exercises authority over immigration enforcement or the state of Minnesota does. It has been disconcerting to watch Minnesota governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey go out of their way to defend not only the violent actions of illegal aliens residing in their state but also the criminal behavior of citizens who endanger the lives of law enforcement officers and everyone around them by obstructing necessary arrests. Because Walz, Frey, and the propaganda press describe them as part of the “immigrant community,” middle-aged Minnesota women are willing to risk their lives to keep men who rape and murder women and children from being detained. The whole scene is sad, disturbing, and discouraging.” – J.B. Shurk

Donald Trump Deserves the Nobel Peace Prize* – “(*According to Donald Trump, who also insists he deserves Greenland.) There are moments in politics that feel genuinely historic. Nixon resigning. Reagan telling Gorbachev to tear down this wall. Joe Biden calling Fox News’ Peter Doocy a “stupid son-of-a-bleep” on a hot mic. And now, Donald J. Trump graciously accepting another person’s Nobel Peace Prize like a Best Actor Oscar for a movie he wasn’t even in. This is a man who once suggested Obama only won a Nobel because “they liked him,” which is a pretty bold take from someone taking a victory lap after a lady from Venezuela literally regifted hers. The scary part is, it looks an awful lot as if he’s willing to sacrifice actual world peace to get it.” – Jenna McCarthy

The sense that no matter how hard you work, the system keeps leaning back on you. That’s not bad luck. It’s a pattern.

There Will Be Consequences – “When people submit to God’s Law, man’s laws are superfluous. When people reject God’s Law, man’s laws are irrelevant. Any rational understanding of how man’s laws relate to God’s Law begins with accepting these two principles. No law made by man can establish moral right or moral wrong. No law made by man can make the actions of men right or wrong. Moral right and moral wrong are established by God’s Law and by only God’s Law. Only God’s Law can make the actions of men right or wrong.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Musk-Grok Controversy: Where’s the Line Between Censorship and Safety? – “The Grok scandal should not be viewed one-dimensionally. It’s about more than explicit images and chatbot controversy. This matter demands a much broader debate about how to balance protection with restraint. If Grok becomes the precedent through which governments gain wide-reaching authority over AI outputs, then the line between safety and censorship will blur further. If AI is genuinely dangerous, does handing governments more power over what it can generate make us safer – or simply give institutions that already misuse power a new tool to control speech? ” – George Calder

Why the Hell Should We Care If Democrats Don’t? – “I used to feel bad for people in the cities overrun by Democrats’ BLM/ANTIFA Brownshirts; who wants to see their fellow Americans going through hell? But then you realize that these people voted for this, and did so repeatedly. I can have sympathy for someone complaining of a headache, but it quickly fades if I find out they have a habit of hitting themselves in the head with a frying pan. After that, I stop caring completely. We’re too that point with everything Democrats do. I’ve been to Minneapolis, went there for the convention in 2008 in St. Paul and had a great time. If it now gets destroyed, meh. That’s a horrible attitude to have, I get that, but I can’t bring myself to care about places or people who won’t care for themselves.

For Trump—Reality Is Pulp Fiction – “Trump took the horror that was Biden’s non-diplomacy (calling adversaries names while participating in untold deaths), and turned it aggressive. Trump’s sanctions/tariffs, which history will ridicule as threats to civilization, become popularized pulp fiction as his brutality gains assets for, acceptance from Americans—lowing prices at the pump. A saga sold to the multitudes who don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground. As in: getting rid of dictator Assad to bring in in Trump’s buddy, al Jolani/ (former be-header in chief/now murderer of Christians/Alawites). That’s a good thing—right? Americans stupidly fail to see, while feeling wealthy in real estate, another pulp fiction—an industry held up by $38T dollars of debt that they the taxpayers owe, and the houses that they peddle at $800K are actual no worth than Americans will be able to pay—which could translate to 10/20% of that.

HE’S KIND OF DISAPPEARED FROM THE NEWS. MAYBE THEY NEVER REALLY CAPTURED HIM. ALL WE PRIMARILY HAVE IS SOME AI PHOTOS OF HIM IN HANDCUFFS!!!!!

Kristi Noem Says People Should Be Prepared to Prove US Citizenship – “Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem advised reporters that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers may ask some Americans for proof of citizenship during enforcement operations. When the rule was emphasized by Trump, there were warnings that if all immigrants were supposed to carry documentation, by default all people in the U.S. would have to carry ID so that they were not wrongly identified as an illegal immigrant.” – Peter Aitken and Dan Gooding  – BUT IT LOOKS LIKE A REAL ID IS NOT PROOF,  HUH, WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DHS agent tells court REAL ID can’t be used to confirm US citizenship – “Admission raises questions about what REAL ID was meant to accomplish after decades of implementation failures and billions in projected costs. Americans are required to obtain REAL ID to clear federal checkpoints, yet DHS now argues that the same credential may not be sufficient to quickly dispel suspicion of unlawful presence in the field.” – Anthony Kimery

Migrant crime wave on British trains: 79% of theft arrests and 40% of violent crime suspects are foreign nationals – “The migrant crime epidemic affecting continental Western Europe has hit Britain” – Thomas Brooke

Minneapolis “Now Crawling With National Guard” Amid Ongoing Protests – “Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz mobilized the National Guard to support the Minnesota State Patrol and other local law enforcement during expected weekend protests in downtown Minneapolis. “We are staged and ready to respond. We are not deployed to city streets at this time,” Minnesota National Guard spokesperson Army Maj. Andrea Tsuchiya told CNN earlier, adding that troops will help provide “traffic support to protect life, preserve property, and support the rights of all Minnesotans to assemble peacefully.”” – Tyler Durden – SO I TAKE THAT TO MEAN THAT THEY ARE THERE TO PROTECT PROTESTORS AND NOT ENFORCE THE LAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gold and Silver Explosion: Something Big Is Happening – “Precious metals prices are trying to tell us something. The problem is, that message is mostly being ignored, even by more conservative platforms. Not enough people are talking about what’s happening with precious metals and what it means for the economy as a whole. Here’s what I think… First, the rush to physical assets suggests that banking institutions, governments and the wealthiest 1% of investors are scrambling to hedge in preparation for a true crisis. Second, there are the domestic problems caused by protests against immigration enforcement. The deportation issue is merely a convenient excuse for wider conflict between the left and the right. ) If ICE agents went home tomorrow and stopped their arrests, the left would find something else to riot about.) In the meantime, civil instability helps fuel the rise in metals. Third, there are the tensions with Russia and China, who are not happy with the capture of communist dictator Nicolás Maduro. Fourth, let’s not forget the protests in Iran and the potential for regime change there.” – Brandon Smith

Markets May Exaggerate the Risks of Venezuela and Greenland – “Most of the recent reports about the potential opportunity in Greenland and Venezuela focus on the large capital expenditure required, technical challenges, and legal security risks. However, markets may exaggerate the risks and underestimate the potential. It is interesting to read that the United States should not invest in Venezuela and Greenland because they are high-risk, low-potential areas, but the same analysts find no problem in China and Russia developing those resources.” – Daniel Lacalle

Silver Goes Vertical: Do You Have An Exit Plan? (VIDEO) – “silver goes vertical, the real risk is not missing the move. It is failing to manage it. Knowing when to scale out, how to protect gains, and how to avoid the traps of euphoria and panic requires a plan established in advance. The question is not whether silver can move sharply higher. The question is whether you are ready when it does.” – The Morgan Report

US Government Sold $654 Billion of Treasuries this Week, 10-Year Yield Spikes to 4.24%, Highest since Sep 2, despite 3 Rate Cuts – “The new supply: $138 billion of new 10-year Treasury notes replaced $66 billion of matured 10-year Treasury notes.” – Wolf Richter

Where Are the Climate-Related Disasters? – “After 25 years of claimed record heat, extreme weather refuses to cooperate” – Dr. Matthew Wielick

Canada Is Not “Safe” We’re Walking Into the Mouth of the Dragon – “Wake up, Canada. This isn’t speculation. It isn’t conspiracy. It’s on camera. During a formal bilateral meeting in Beijing, aired by CPAC … Mark Carney said the quiet part out loud: “… the progress that we have made in the partnership sets us up well for the new world order.” Those words were spoken deliberately, in a scripted diplomatic setting, before Chinese leadership, with translators present, flags behind him, and a permanent public record. This was not a slip. This was framing.” – Connie Shields

Cash Is Criminal: New Trump Admin Law Triggers An IRS Report For Withdrawing $200 From A Bank From Select Communities To Combat Fraud And Illegal Immigrants. – “The Trump administration quietly enacted a new law on select portions of the United States that could drastically affect cash usage, under the guise of clamping down on fraud and illicit activity.” – The WinePress

GoFundMe Is Now America’s Moral Tip Jar – “New retirement plan: mouth off, get fired, rake in cash. There was a time when GoFundMe existed to help the truly unfortunate: victims of medical catastrophes, freak accidents, natural disasters…Those days are now filed under “cultural artifacts” somewhere between Blockbuster Video and MySpace. The crowdfunded piggy bank has officially morphed into a virtue-signaling moral tip jar, where any sufficiently theatrical act of public defiance—especially if it is aimed in the vague direction of Donald Trump—can be instantly converted into cash, clout, and digital sainthood.” – Jenna McCarthy

NEWS

An Assault on the Republic – “When the president takes an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, he agrees to follow the law, whether he agrees with it or not. ​When the president takes the oath, he promises to execute the office “faithfully.” James Madison feared a cross-your-fingers-behind-your-back moment if the word faithfully were not in the oath. ​Now back to Trump. By claiming that “on the world stage” — language used by the reporter who questioned Trump, not by Trump himself — only his mind and morality can restrain him, he has revealed by his own choice of words what his presidential behavior has already manifested. He obviously rejects the obligation to execute his job faithfully. His loyalty is to himself, not to the words or the values underlying the Constitution.” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

When Trump Bombs Iran – “The obviously imminent (because obviously planned) attack on Iran by the United States (on behalf of Israel) could occur any moment. Perhaps before I finish typing this article. Probably it will happen within a day or two of the publication of this article. Everything is proceeding according to the plan probably cooked up at Mara Lago a couple weeks ago, when Benny “Netanyahu,” the president of the United States, met with his viceroy, who was instructed, per usual, to put Israel First. It was announced – clumsily, because it’s so tediously obvious – that the United States would attack Iran on behalf of Israel if “protestors” in Iran were harmed by the Iranian government. This comes from the viceroy who never protests the killing of thousands of children and old people in Israel – who just happened to be in the way of Israeli rifles.” – Eric Peters

Will Trump next try to kidnap Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei? – “The Western media are assisting the descent into barbarism through their well-honed lies and pandering to the imperialist thuggery of Trump’s regime.” – Finian Cunningham

America 2.0: Under Foreign Occupation – “One nation under ZOG. Americans labor under the belief that they are a free people. We get to elect our leaders, after all, and are protected by the Bill of Rights. We’re not like those poor saps in shithole countries like Venezuela.” – Donald Jeffries

Act Now? – “Don’t be too surprised if sometime later this day, Friday, the president invokes the Insurrection Act to tranquilize the city of Minneapolis, since aerial spraying of Olanzapine is probably out of the question. Where, oh where, are the mythologized “nice,” and “above-average” people of Minnesota, once praised in song and sketch on those long-ago Saturday nights of The Prairie Home Companion? They have been replaced by a mutant army of psychotic Transtifa wendigos on the payroll of Arabella Advisors (now operating as Sunflower Services), or the Tides Foundation, or some other Soros-connected money-laundry.” – James Howard Kunstler

Minnesota Is Rejecting Federal Sovereignty, The Insurrection Act Exists for This Moment – “The Insurrection Act is an old statute with a modern purpose. It is a legal bridge between two truths that sit uneasily together. One truth is that the US is a union of states with real sovereignty in matters of policing and public order. The other truth is that the US is one nation with one set of federal laws, one Constitution, and one federal government charged with executing its laws everywhere. When those truths collide, a republic needs a rule for who must yield, and under what conditions. The Insurrection Act supplies that rule.” – Alexander Muse / Amuse on X – HOWEVER THERE IS A FINE LINE HERE WHERE THE USE OF THIS CREATES A POLICE STATE!!!!

The Art of Demolishing Conventional Wisdom – “Imake no bones about my support for President Trump. I find him a breath of truth-infused fresh air in an age of pretending that has long been dedicated to constructing, spreading, and anointing the “narrative.” If your personal politics overlap to some degree with President Trump’s worldview, the previous paragraph is filled with self-evident truths. What is remarkable is that every one of the above statements represents a contentious policy disagreement in the United States and across the West today. Ever since President Trump came on the political scene and refused to pander to the Establishment’s brand of “political correctness” or pay homage to the political Left’s secular-yet-sacred shibboleths, Americans have aggressively separated into warring tribes.” – J.B.

Tovia Singer 💜 Loves Darby and Scofield 💜 And Here’s Why – “Why dispensationalism serves his argument better than truth ever could. my iPad was on the counter, and I glanced at it just long enough to see a new video by Tovia Singer. I hesitated, then pressed play anyway. I wish I didn’t… What he said needs to be answered – for the sake of truth and for the sake of exposing such unbearable lies and contradictions he so confidently spews out. First, he goes straight for the Church Fathers and keeps calling them “virulent antisemites,”What he never tells his audience is that rabbinic and Talmudic literature is full of hatred toward Christ, His mother, Christians, and Gentiles in general. Not polite disagreement or mild criticism. Open contempt and mockery. Dehumanization. That reality is carefully avoided by Tovia every time this subject comes up. There is no popular word for hatred toward Gentiles. No “anti-Gentilism” category. No watchdog groups tracking it. No headlines about it. Why? So the imbalance stays hidden, and only one side of the “hostility “is ever allowed into the conversation.” – Jana S Bennun

Clickbait Diplomacy – “Sometimes it isn’t what is being said that’s important, but the volume of the message that tells the truth. From out of almost nowhere, the X message from liberals is that somehow the actions of ICE are totalitarian and dystopian, but when the FBI came after grandmothers praying in front of the capitol on January 6th, that wasn’t. ” – T.L.

“The Dollar Is Fine,” Says Everyone Watching It Burn – “As predicted, the world is moving away from the U.S. dollar and treasuries. The world was quietly and stubbornly walking away from the US dollar and US Treasuries the last half decade, that walk is becoming a march, and “quietly” is turning to “loudly”.” – Quoth the Raven

Food Inflation Gets Hot, but Not Every Item: A Look at Beef, Chicken, Coffee, Eggs, Dairy, Fruit & Vegetables, “Other Foods” – “The CPI for “Food at home” – food that people buy at stores, markets, or online and consume off premise – jumped by 0.72% month-to-month (+9.0% annualized), the biggest jump since August 2022, after a slight decline in the prior month, according to the CPI data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This increase pushed the year-over-year increase to 2.4%.” – Wolf Richter

Debt Data Continues to Signal Deep Consumer Stress – “Consumer borrowing cratered further in November, likely reflecting growing consumer stress, as price inflation persists and credit cards become maxed out. That’s bad news for a U.S. economy that depends on consumers buying stuff. Persistent price inflation forced Americans to blow through their savings and then turn to credit cards to make ends meet.” – Mike Maharrey

Why Silver is One of the Most In-Demand Metals on the Planet – “Silver has been on a tear lately, soaring to all-time highs and gaining more than 150% since last year, outpacing even gold. It has quietly become one of the most in-demand metals on the planet. Bill Armour joins us to discuss why people still have time to take advantage of the surge.” – Maria Zeee / Daily Pulse

Shanghai Silver Price Still Over $100 /oz. As SLV ETF Is Raided For Physical Silver Bars – “The Shanghai silver price maintains an increasing premium over Western silver prices at $101.06 /oz. on a very tight physical global silver market. India continues with a 17% silver price premium to London. The Asian silver vacuum is on. Today is an options expiry day for stocks on US exchanges and many silver mining stocks have seen very large increases over the past month with large banks having issued (shorted) these options into the market. I would expect to see heavy selling of silver in the paper metal market today in an attempt to minimize losses as many of the call options, that increase in value with rising prices of underlying equity prices, are deeply ‘in the money’ after torrid January gains.” – David Jensen

Preparedness Lessons From Communist Mongolia – Part 1 – “We lived in Mongolia in the early 1990s, for a few years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, during a time when the system had officially ended but its habits had not yet loosened their grip on daily life.

We were attempting to function inside the local economy, under local conditions, with consequences that were immediate and personal. At the time, I did not think of what we were doing as preparedness. I had no language for it.” – G.K.

THE BIG PICTURE

Reclaiming Freedom – “Restoring Civilization As Master, Economics as Servant. True liberation requires a fundamental reorganization of society around our civilization, restoring economics to its proper, subordinate role. This entails a great dual project: a reduction of the state to its just bounds, and a restoration of civic duty to its vital place.” – E.M. Burlingame

Where Are the Tiny Cars? – “A couple months ago, we were informed that Trump had decided to “approve” the building (manufacturing) of so-called “tiny cars” – which are actually non-compliant cars – in the United States. Trump said such vehicles can be built in America now, because he said so. So far, none are available – and not one major car company has said they plan to offer them for sale in America anytime soon. Or ever. This is probably on account of the fact that while they can be built here (there was never any law forbidding that) they cannot be legally sold here, because they are non-compliant – and Trump has not (with a wage of his magic executive order wand) disappeared the regulations that have to be complied with before any new vehicle may legally be sold in the United States. Trump is a willful ignoramus when it comes to details. He seems to think he can breezily say – make it so, like Captain Picard from Star Trek – and it will be so. But it ain’t so. Maybe he just hopes we’ll forget all about it. Like the Epstein stuff. Like those $5,000 rebate checks Americans were supposed to be getting courtesy of Elon Musk and DOGE. Whatever happened to DOGE?” – Eric Peters

WATCH: This Is Just Absolutely INSANE – “How is this even real? In an incredible Senate hearing meant to address the dangers of abortion pills sold online without proper oversight, a Democratic witness turned the spotlight on herself by refusing to acknowledge that only women can get pregnant. Dr. Nisha Verma, an OB-GYN tapped by Democrats, evaded direct questions from Republicans, prioritizing “identities” over scientific fact.” – Steve Watson – IF YOU JUST WANT TO WATCH THE VIDEO OR USE THE LINK IT’S BELOW.

Fear, Loathing & Bias How ancient and essential survival mechanisms can distort our perceptions of reality. – “None of Renee Nicole Good’s behavior was justifiable, and she should have been arrested later for reckless endangerment of a federal law officer (federal statute 18 U.S.C. § 111, with prison time of up to 20 years or more). However, as reckless as she was, the punishment for reckless endangerment is not the death penalty. Given that she was trying to drive away, it is hard to understand why the ICE agents didn’t immediately move clear of the car. Regarding the officer who fired the shot: in the time it took for him to draw, aim, and fire, he could have jumped completely clear. The ICE agents involved in this incident may be well-trained and prepared for the tough and demanding business of detaining illegal immigrants. However, their actions in handling a hysterical woman suggest they were not properly trained for dealing with protestors.” – John Leake

Binary Thinking and its Blind Spots (VIDEO) – “System 1 handles the decision processing with its automatic emotional response, and it never gets any further analysis. System 1 goes back to our most basic survival instincts, and it is good for processing binary choices such as fight/flight, edible/toxic, alive/dead, but it is not suitable for processing complex issues. This is what System 2 is for. And it is well known in today’s study of psychology that when the human mind is presented with only two options, the work automatically goes to System 1, and critical thinking is avoided. The purpose for having these two cognitive systems, is efficiency. ” – Greg Reese  – ANOTHER INTERESTING VIDEO FROM GREG!!!

Former United Nations Employee Warns of the Dangers of the UN Digital ID Program – “Ray says the way the UN is handling its rollout of digital IDs for employees is an indication of how the organization is approaching digital ID projects around the world. “The UN’s approach to their internal staff digital ID reflects the same attitudes seen in national-level digital ID roll-outs—inadequate concern for legal liability, disregard for individual informed consent, and overconfidence in the strength of the technology’s privacy and security implications,” Ray told The Last American Vagabond ” – Derrick Broze

Tenpenny Throwback Thursday – “Pfizer probably made your cheese. Did you know that? many countries have banned FPC because they consider it to be a genetically modified organism (GMO) which it indeed is. Long ago, the FDA approved the GMO rennet as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS), a regulatory designation that allows substances to enter the food supply without full pre-market approval. By the way, the FDA made their decision based on a 90-day study of rats eating the FPC. Wonderful. The bottom line is that real cheese is about as natural as it can get: milk, salt, enzymes, and calf rennet. It would be good to keep it that way. Look at your labels, and if possible buy from a local farmer.” – Dr. Sherri Tenpenny

GOP Is Repeating 2022 Democrat Playbook – “For two years, the Democrat Party obfuscated and lied to the American people about the demented mental state of President Joe Biden. After Biden’s mental incapacitation could no longer be concealed by his debate performance with Donald Trump, it was too late. The Donkeys were left with a pathetically inferior candidate (Kamala Harris) and no time to construct a credible campaign. Had Democrats been honest with themselves and the American people and removed Biden from office in 2022, the elections in 2024 might have had a very different outcome. In 2026, Republicans are facing a parallel situation. President Donald Trump, dubbed neo-Caligula by many podcasters, is crashing and burning any hope of a GOP victory this November. For that matter, his helter-skelter political/military compass points to a crash landing for the entire United States—perhaps the entire world. Every day that Trump remains in the Oval Office is a day closer to nuclear Armageddon. The man is certifiably insane. And everyone around Trump knows it. But as with the Democrats in 2022, no one is willing to admit it, much less do anything about it.” – Chuck Baldwin

Making Armageddon Great Again – “A Mushroom Cloud, A Smoking Gun” – Bill Astore

Trump Won’t Be Solely Responsible – “He might not be responsible in the least, but most people are already convinced he’s deeply involved. They view him as a mere puppet of the agenda—and even if that’s true, and the agenda wins its war against humanity, it won’t be his doing alone. Yet the masses will almost certainly hold him fully accountable.” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP

We’re Always Told That Everyone In The Empire-Targeted Nation Hates Their Government – “The regime change supporter’s favorite trick is to pretend the people in the targeted country are an ideological monolith. All Iranians hate their government, all Venezuelans wanted freedom from Maduro, etc. They do this constantly. Thing is, it requires them to dehumanize the very population they’re claiming to care about. ” – Caitlin Johnstone

War fever is building for another Middle East regime-change operation but what are the potential outcomes for Iran, the region and the world? – “Trump says ‘help is on the way’ but will he go in with boots on the ground, or try to accomplish the mission strictly with bombing raids? Either option is fraught with risks for America and Israel.” – Leo Hohmann

ICE IS DEPORTING PURPLE HEART VETERANS AND KRISTI NOEM LIED ABOUT IT UNDER OATH – “You do not accidentally fail to notice that the guy you are putting on a plane fought in Iraq or Afghanistan or Panama or Korea. The military keeps records. Dog tags have service numbers. These men have DD-214s. Someone looked at that paperwork and decided to deport them anyway. Someone made a choice. And when Kristi Noem sat in front of Congress and said with a straight face that she had not deported a single veteran, she was not confused. She was protecting a deliberate policy.” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

Fantasy “Loan” for Ukraine Gets Adjusted Again as EU Faces Priorities Reality Check – “The latest information suggests that the much-vaunted €90B “loan” that was the highlight and ‘triumph’ of von der Leyen’s rotten caucus last month—and which itself was actually a miserable downgrade from the now-memory-holed far-larger requested amount—has become another abject lesson in theatrical deception. Major outlets now report that the so called “loan” will only provide Ukraine ~€30B, while the remaining €60B goes directly to European “arms manufacturers”.” – Simplicius

The real price of the Venezuela coup: Iran’s regional support against Israel/U.S. – “Does Trump have the slightest idea of what a war with Iran actually means in practical terms? Does he understand that removing Maduro has galvanised support for Iran when that war starts? With the huge movement of US military aircraft first arriving in US bases in the UK before moving onto the Middle East, the rioting in Iran and Trump’s euphoria over Venezuela, it would be a fair assumption to make that the US, along with Israel, is planning an Iranian attack aimed at toppling the regime.” – Martin Jay

Iran – Trump Chickened Out – “Yesterday U.S. President Donald Trump was ready and willing to bomb Iran. The most important target would have been the Supreme Leader, Ajatollah Khamenei. But Iran was ready and Khamenei safe. The U.S. military, in contrast, was not ready to defend against the inevitable retaliation that would have come out of Iran. There are only three destroyers with air-defenses in the area that could offer protection against a ballistic missile onslaught. A few minutes after the first strikes their arsenals would have been empty.” – Moon of Alabama

Senate Passes Bill Allowing Victims To Sue Over Deepfake Porn Videos – “The Senate unanimously passed a bill on Jan. 13 allowing victims to sue producers and distributors of deepfake porn videos.

How much did consumer price inflation change in the December Consumer Price Index Summary from our favorite data provider, the Bureau of Labor Statistics? In broad strokes, not much.

Yet, how ironic that in his first administration and now again in 2025 and 2026 all we hear from him about is how booming the stock market is as a measure of strength for the economy, which he tees off on the golf course! When it’s up, it’s because of him; when it does badly, it’s someone else’s fault:” – The WinePress

The End Of The Age Of American Capital? – “Markets are deluged in noise as the President remakes the world. We’re learning to roll with it – but the trick will be to spot the opportunities and gaps that will open.

Impact of New Chinese Silver Export Regulations Overstated – ” When Chinese officials rolled out the rules, which went into effect Jan. 1, many analysts said it would lock hundreds of small and mid-sized exporters out of the system. However, these analysts failed to realize that the Chinese government was already regulating and licensing silver exports. These small and mid-sized exporters were already locked out of the system. The new rules were essentially tweaks in an existing framework.” – Mike Maharrey

How Currency Stress Is Pushing Gold, Silver to New Highs – “Gold’s move toward $4,600 isn’t about jobs data or geopolitics – it’s about currency stress.

Buy Gold, Dump Treasuries – “On Monday’s episode of the Peter Schiff Show, Peter reacts to a dramatic day in the markets where gold and especially silver steal the headlines, then connects those moves to political and monetary developments that he says make the dollar vulnerable. He ties a sudden surge in precious metals to a new scandal around Fed Chair Jerome Powell, the Fed’s warped spending incentives, and a troubling political proposal to cap credit-card interest. He opens with the market action, where silver is the clear standout today: He’s surprised the mainstream financial media treats that as a footnote rather than the news of the day:” – Peter Schiff

What Silver Is Quietly Telling Anyone Who’s Paying Attention – “Most people think markets speak in headlines and charts. They don’t. They speak in marketplace behavior. And right now, silver isn’t acting like a sleepy industrial metal or a forgotten hedge—it’s acting like something is wrong underneath the floorboards. When an asset that’s spent decades being ignored suddenly starts behaving like a fire alarm, it’s not trying to make you rich. It’s trying to tell you something. Out on the land, capital doesn’t look like a brokerage account. It looks like a well that still pumps. A solar array that hums when the lines go dark. A pantry you can’t eat through in a month. And yes—a few heavy bars tucked away where only you know. As silver triples off old levels and premiums creep higher, the message is familiar to anyone who lived through feed, fertilizer, or diesel shortages: the window is closing. Off-grid investors think in layers.” – Bill Heid
