Nothing New Under The Sun 2016

THE BIG PICTURE

King Trump Formed the NEW New World Order at the WEF Today to a Standing Ovation – “But it still has the same New World ODOR that reeks of swamp, albeit laced with that hot-plastic aroma of high-tech data centers that lingers along the footsteps of billionaires in the alpine snow.” – David Haggith

The chocolate helmet of government accountability – “The CDC refused to even monitor vaccine safety under covid. They just flat out didn’t do it. But this is not unique to health. Increasingly, we see agency after agency in which it’s clear that someone took the batteries out. It’s legitimately amazing how fake these government systems have become. They have passed “unsuited to purpose” and reached “directly and intentionally antithetical” to it. They seem to even lack systems to hold agencies and agents accountable. and you don’t diverge this far from sane and sensible practice by accident.” – El Gato Malo

Don’t Blame Boomers – “AS A BOOMER (b. 1957) who is being blamed for all the ills afflicting subsequent generations, I’d like to state the following. 1. I did not vote to establish the private Federal Reserve in 1913. I was not born until many decades later. 2. I did not vote to change our real silver coins (“money”) for copper coins painted silver. I was 8 years old in 1965. 3. I did not vote to change our Silver Certificate Dollars (which could be exchanged for actual physical silver) to pure fiat Federal Reserve Notes. I was 11 years old in 1968. 4. I did not vote to “close the gold window” in 1971. Nixon did that. I was 14 years old. What happened to all Americans was the planned and structured debasement of our federal reserve currency (it’s not real money).” – Matthew Bracken  – GOOD ONE FROM MATT!!!!!!!!!!

Trump at Davos: “Covid” was a a military operation. “Dust” [chemical weapons] was used. – “I told you so in 2022. Trump tells you now in 2026. Will freedom experts admit they mislead you into “public health mistakes” and “wrong science”?” – Sasha Latypova

Snow and Ice Storms Will Break Records, Take Down Power Lines – “A polar vortex will impact much of the country. The price of natural gas soars. Here are a few videos that show the progression of the storm. Utah, Nevada, and the west coast are spared. The biggest problem is ice and freezing rain in a long band that separates snow from rain.” – Mish

Massive Winter Storm Puts 230 Million Americans At Risk As Panic Buying Begins – “While climate alarmist Al Gore warned about global warming at the World Economic Forum for globalist billionaire elites in Davos, Switzerland, this week, roughly 230 million Americans are grounded in reality and facing what could be a historic snow and/or ice event. ” – Tyler Durden

The Government Now Wants Every American Wearing a Privacy-Invading Tracking Device – “‘It’s for your health!’ Bullshit.” – 🐺The Wise Wolf  – HAVE LINKED ABOUT THIS PREVIOUSLY AS WELL. HERE’S THE WOLF’S TAKE ON IT!!!!!

Tenpenny Throwback Thursday Ozempic for addiction? I thought it was for diabetes! – “Ozempic is a drug that is indicated for diabetes, and is prescription use only. The drug and others like it have become the latest weight loss fix-all drug. Sadly, doctors are prescribing it for off-label drug use for weight loss. Ozempic and similar drugs are now being used to treat drug, alcohol, and other addictions. The use of these drugs is quickly spiraling out of control.” – Dr. Sherri Tenpenny

Ancient Electricity? Lost Technology? Magnetic Trains in 1850, Civil War Solar Power & More – “My mind is officially blown…” – Agent131711  – AGENT131711 GOES DIVING AGAIN!!!!

NEWS

Up in Smoke – “Davos — The World Economic Forum (WEF)— is toast. Trump, Bessent, and Lutnick exposed the wretched org of overcompensated squishes to too much light and heat and it flared into such a pathetic little smoldering cinder that its spoxpersons said the meeting might get moved out of Davos altogether next year to Dublin or Detroit. Closer to the people, you understand (except there are hardly any people left in Detroit, thanks to the fifty years of WEF influence on manufacturing policy and the people of Dublin are now Nigerians, Somalis, and Congolese, thanks to the WEF’s retarded migration doctrine). All of which means that its trademark, WEF Globalism, is dead, too.” – James Howard Kunstler – WEF GLOBALISM MAY BE DEAD, BUT GLOBALISM IS STILL ALIVE AND WELL. JUST CHANGING HANDS FOR THE MOMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The real “rupture” in Davos – “Davos 2026 was a demented kaleidoscope. The only possible way to wallow through the mire was to put on the headphones and resort to the Band of Gypsys smashing sonic barriers, and drowning a frankly terryfying series of events, including a Palantir-BlackRock connection, Big Tech meets Big Finance; the “Master Plan” for Gaza; and the acute discombobulation in neo-Caligula’s rant, here in the 3-minute version. Then there was what the fragmented West’s mainstream media erected as a visionary speech: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s mini-opus magnum, complete with a – what else – Thucydides quote (“The strong do what they can, and the weak suffer what they must”) to illustrate the “rupture” of the “rules-based international order”, which was already a Dead Man Not Walking at least for a year now. Many of those who now enshrine Carney as The New Messiah – and such a defender of internation law – totally ignored or covered for the Zionist genocide of Gaza; demonized Russia to Kingdom Come and keep instigating a Forever War; and now beg on their knees for neo-Caligula to engage in a “dialogue” to solve his self-proclaimed Greenland land grab. Elon Musk, incidentally, also showed up at Davos on short notice. He is a huge supporter of the Greenland land grab” – Pepe Escobar

Mileposts Along the Road – “The Trump regime – just the right word, given its thuggish turn of late – now says that anyone who video records the doings of ICE is a “domestic terrorist.” In other words, to document what the government is doing constitutes “terrorism.” It is of a piece with the doctrine that anything less than immediate submission to an order barked at us by armed government workers constitutes “resisting” and that can (and often does) trigger a Hut! Hut! Hutting! It gets worse” – Eric Peters

Here’s How The Media Are Lying Right Now: ICE And ‘5-Year-Old Boy’ Edition – “Credit to the Department of Homeland Security and Vice President J.D. Vance for immediately nipping in the bud what was sure to be a hysterical weekend-long news cycle. It’s the same playbook whenever the dying media want to manipulate their audiences and turn public sentiment against a government policy they oppose. In this case, immigration law enforcement. They would have you believe that ICE snatched an adorable little boy out of preschool and marched him into the frigid air of a Minneapolis suburb.” – Eddie Scarry

Jared Kushner reveals ‘MASTER PLAN’ for developing Gaza at Davos during Trump’s Board of Peace (VIDEO) – The Mirror – TRUMP’S SON-IN-LAW REVEALS WHAT THIS IS REALLY ABOUT. MAKING MONEY, BUT I GUARANTEE IT WON’T BE FOR THE PALESTINIANS, IT WILL BE FOR THE ZIONISTS AND THEIR FLUNKY TRUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump’s Board of Peace Bandits (VIDEO) – “Captain Chaos Trump is deliberately destroying the old to make way for the new (the problem-reaction-solution Hegelian dialectic). The Board of Peace is a pay-to-play organization with a panel of bandits – war criminals, ardent Zionists and real estate moguls – with not a single Palestinian on the board!” – Makia Freeman

Hoodwinks and Hijinks: Trump ‘Nabs’ Greenland at Davos – “The Davos conference taking place in Switzerland has brought all the world’s top geopolitical tinder boxes to the center stage. The most notable has been Trump’s ongoing Greenland saga, which is apparently ending in the selfsame style as most of Trump’s previous loudly heroic campaigns—all sound and fury, signifying pitifully little. Trump wanted all of Greenland, and the latest reports indicate what he will get are “small pockets” of land to erect a few more US assets, little different to the US’s ‘leasehold’ of Guantanamo or UK’s land rights in Cyprus, etc.” – Simplicius

Did U.S. Policy Deliberately Harm Civilians in Iran? (VIDEO) with Max Blumenthal – Judge Andrew Napolitano – “Max Blumenthal joins Judge Napolitano to dissect Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s Davos brag that Trump ordered OFAC to collapse Iran’s currency, block imports, and deliberately drive people into the streets. He frames this as open admission of “financial terrorism”: ” – Judging Freedom

Trump Suggests He Can Send $2,000 Tariff Rebate Checks Without Congress – “Speaking to reporters outside the White House, Trump suggested that the surge in tariff revenue could fund the payouts while also reducing the national debt, which is approaching $38.5 trillion. “We have so much money coming in from tariffs that we’ll be able to make a very substantial dividend to the people of our country,” the president said. “I believe we can do that without Congress.”” – Tyler Durden

ECONOMIC NEWS

From Vibrancy To Vacancy: Going, Going, Gone! – “I hate shopping. I hate crowds. I hate malls. I don’t believe I had entered a mall in over a decade, until Monday. My visit to the once vibrant Montgomery Mall in Montgomeryville, PA was a shocking confirmation of what I had been predicting about retail stores since 2008. Next to the term Dead Mall in the dictionary should be a picture of the current version of the Montgomery Mall. The death of this now obsolete mecca of consumerism can be blamed on clueless corporate executives, devious developers, feckless bankers, and technology. The beginning of the downfall can be traced to the acquisition of the mall by Simon Property Group in 2003. These corporate raiders use the legal system to organize their holdings in such a way that they can take on massive leverage, pillage the asset, not repay the debt, and walk away virtually unscathed, like they did in 2021 when the mall was foreclosed upon with a $119 judgment against Simon. ” – Jim Quinn

Gold, Silver, and Their Big Round Numbers – “The odds that $5,000 gold and $100 silver would happen on the same day seemed pretty slim. Yet here we are, with that being a very real possibility:” – John Rubino

Japan Blows up American Stocks – “Stocks had an exciting week as we went from everything bubble to everything crash in about a day and a half. With gold and silver loving every minute.” – Peter St Onge

Has Winter Arrived For Inflation? – “We Have Price Stability. Now We Need Wage And Income Growth” – Peter Nayland Kust

Economy shows signs of cooling, S&P finds. Tariffs still weigh on growth and hiring. – Jeffry Bartash

The Retirement Math Most Americans Get Wrong – “You can do everything right – save diligently, plan ahead, follow the rules – and still come up short in retirement. The problem isn’t effort. It’s assumptions: Inflation, healthcare, and living costs don’t behave the way we expect. So what can we do?” – Peter Reagan

Investment Update: The “Sell America” Trade Isn’t a One-Off – “our demand for financing is rising even as foreign willingness to provide that financing is falling. The deficit is already running hot early in fiscal year 2026—Treasury reported the U.S. borrowed $602 billion in the first three months of FY 2026, and CRFB warned we remain on track for a nearly $2 trillion deficit this year.” – Jim Nelson, CFA

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

The Blizzard of 2026 Is Coming — Here’s How I’m Preparing – “Right now, it’s calm outside. That’s usually how it goes before a winter storm like this one. The sun’s out, it doesn’t feel that cold yet, and it’s easy to think, “We’ll deal with it tomorrow.” But the forecast says a lot of people across the South and Appalachia are about to deal with ice, snow, wind, and power outages — possibly for several days. And when that happens, one thing matters more than anything else: Heat. Not food. Not gadgets. Not panic buying at the last minute. Heat.” – M.D. Creekmore  – THIS ONE HAS A VIDEO LINK AS WELL, BE SURE TO WATCH IT!!!

It’s COMING! ULTIMATE Winter Storm Prep Guide! (VIDEO) – Jason Salyer

Going Off Grid In The Tropics – Part 1 – “Have you ever thought about going off-grid in the tropics? No? Well, me neither, yet that’s where I find myself. First up, though I have had food stores and access to water as a habit for over a decade I have only been living (mostly) off-grid for a year. So I’m not very experienced and still learning the ropes. But I thought my experiences here might be a curiosity and possibly be interesting reading for others.” – Conan Stevens

Is an Air Fryer Oven Worthwhile for the Frugal Kitchen? – Daisy Luther

Stop Buying Your Meat from Walmart – “This may not be something most folks like to hear, especially when grocery bills already feel too high, but it needs to be said plainly and without sugarcoating: the meat most Americans buy today is not the same meat we grew up on, and pretending otherwise doesn’t do anyone any favors. This isn’t an attack on Walmart, and it’s not about shaming anyone for where they shop. Walmart exists because people need affordable food, and for a lot of families, it’s the only store within driving distance. That reality matters. What also matters is understanding what kind of meat you’re bringing home, how it affects your health over time, and whether it truly belongs in a long-term food plan.” – Ask a Prepper
