THE BIG PICTURE

The Coming Constitutional Ice Age – “Last fall during the opening of the United Nations in New York City, I recognized the face of a federal officer from his days working in law enforcement in New Jersey and mine as a trial judge. We chatted and I asked him what he was doing. He told me he worked for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE. I asked what ICE has to do with the U.N., and he told me that soon ICE will be everywhere. When I asked if ICE has become a paramilitary force, answerable to the White House, he just smiled, as if to say, “Don’t quote me.” When I asked him why he was carrying two handguns and an AK-47 automatic rifle, he laughed and said, “I have more than you can see, judge!” Since then, the president has used ICE to fulfill his promise of aggressive enforcement of immigration laws while cutting constitutional corners —” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

The Expanding Orbit of ICE’s Surveillance Machine – “Blurred lines.” – Corey Smith

The Epstein Unredacted Files Make Pizzagate Look Like Pizza Hut – “Remember Pizzagate? Remember when half the country lost their minds over a conspiracy theory about a DC pizza parlor running a child trafficking ring out of a basement that didn’t exist? When some lunatic showed up with an AR-15 to “investigate”? When the entire media establishment spent months using it as exhibit A for why conspiracy theorists are dangerous nutjobs who need to be deplatformed, censored, and medicated? Well. Turns out the real pedophile network wasn’t hiding in some imaginary basement. It was cruising on yachts. Partying at Mar-a-Lago. Flying on private jets. And the man currently occupying the Oval Office has his name appearing nearly one million times in the unredacted Epstein files. One. Million. Times.” – Lily-Rose Dawson

Google’s Gmail Works with the Zionist Government Tracking Your Emails – But People Refuse to Stop Using It – Brian Shilhavy

UN “Master Plan for Humanity” Tied to Epstein Network, Climate Agenda, and Global Control Push – “Epstein’s role went far beyond sex scandals. He served as a conduit—connecting political figures, financial dynasties, academic institutions, and multinational corporations. Yet the media is silent.” – Alex Newman

Gained access to Epstein’s FedEx account: Still live. Shipments in 2024, address book with 90+ names – “The Ditch gained access to Jeffrey Epstein’s FedEx account – with records showing it was used for shipments long after his death and an address book including a senior Israeli military officer now considered a “strategic consultant” for “diplomatic matters”. ” – The Ditch

Mayorkas Secretly Lands at Think Tank Taking Millions From Foreign Governments, Soros, and CCP Spy Networks – “This isn’t retirement. It’s the reward. Former DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has quietly taken a role as a Visiting Scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, an institution long entangled with Chinese influence networks, foreign government funding, and open-borders activism.” – Natalie Winters

Bad Bunny, MAGA, and the Destruction of Puerto Rico – “MAGA denounces victims of US imperialism as “fake Americans. Jake Paul called Bad Bunny, aka Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, a “fake American.” Paul is a boxer, influencer, actor, and racist Islamophobe. Ocasio had the temerity to sing in Spanish. Paul and MAGA were outraged, as were thousands of incensed others who posted to social media after the headline performance. “Let’s rally together and show big corporations they can’t just do whatever they want without consequences,” Paul tweeted. “Turn off this halftime. A fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America.” Ocasio is an American citizen. Puerto Ricans have held US citizenship since the 1917 Jones-Shafroth Act, but we can’t expect the followers of MAGA to know much about history, the law, and the brutal track record of colonialism. MAGA may not like it, but Spanish is the second most spoken language in the United States. More than 59 million people in America speak Spanish. More people speak Spanish than French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Arabic, and other languages combined.”- Kurt Nimmo  – KURT BRINGS UP SOME GOOD POINTS HERE!!!!

Our Leaders Couldn’t Fix Our Problems If They Wanted To (And They Don’t Want To) – “Our leaders are not wise or insightful. They’re not even particularly intelligent. Our society is led by plutocrats who only know how to make more money, by unelected empire managers who only know how to dominate and control, and by elected politicians who only know how to say the right words and make the right…” – Caitlin Johnstone

Flaming Attorney General Blondi Lights Congress on Fire for Daring to Question her – “”It’s criminal. She’s broken the law,” Representative Massie says of DoJ head Pam Bondi” – David Haggith

Watch: Bondi Explodes Over Epstein During Shouting Match With Massie And Top Dems – “The fireworks began when Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) pressed Bondi on whether DOJ has indicted or is investigating any of Epstein’s alleged co-conspirators, citing what he called “concrete evidence of disgusting criminality” in recently released files. Bondi attempted to sidestep the question; when Nadler repeated it, she raised her voice and insisted she would “answer the question the way I want to answer the question,” talking over Nadler as colleagues tried to intercede. As the exchange escalated, Bondi pivoted away from Epstein entirely – invoking the Dow, S&P and Nasdaq and touting retirement accounts.” – Tyler Durden  – REALLY, WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH THE DOJ AND  THE ATTORNEY GENERAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We Have Now Reached “Gunperson” Level Absurdity – “Another day, another NOBODY-WANTS-TO-SAY-IT tragedy. By now you’ve surely heard about Tuesday’s horrific school shooting in Tumbler Ridge—a tiny, remote Canadian town. It’s the deadliest mass shooting Canada has seen in more than thirty years. Within minutes of the rampage, alerts went out describing the suspect as a “female in a dress.” The minute I saw that, I knew. I mean, have you ever—even once—seen an alleged perpetrator described as a “male in pants” or a “female wearing shoes?” Of course not! It’s “armed female” or “adult male” or, if the subject is still on the loose, maybe “a white male in a neon green hoodie and purple parachute pants.” But never-not-ever is it “a human in human clothing.” They only threw the dress part in there to avoid stating a politically inconvenient fact, upsetting advertisers, or toppling their own carefully constructed narrative.” – Jenna McCarthy  – YEP, HOW DARE  YOU SAY IT WAS A TRANS PERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE CARIBBEAN BUILD-UP: VENEZUELA IS THE SPARK — CUBA IS THE PRIZE — AND CHINA IS THE HIDDEN HAND It’s a geopolitical Psyop! The media will tell you the current U.S. military and diplomatic posture in the Caribbean is about Venezuela, Maduro, and “regional stability.” That’s the kindergarten version. What’s really happening is a three-front strategic reset: 1. 🇻🇪 Venezuela — the collapsing Chinese-aligned regime 2. 🇨🇺 Cuba — the ideological prize vulnerable for the first time since 1959 3. 🇵🇦 Panama — the canal the U.S. is quietly negotiating to take back This is the most consequential geopolitical window the United States has had in the Western Hemisphere in 40 years.” – Kerry Lutz  – MISSED THIS ONE WHEN IT CAME OUT A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. GOOD ARTICLE!!!

The ‘Good Deal’ Lie – “Other governments have no interest in accepting Trump’s demands for their surrender. The president continues to pretend to favor a diplomatic solution with Iran: Every aggressor would prefer that the other side yields everything without a fight, so it doesn’t mean anything when the president says that a deal is his “preference.” No doubt he would also prefer that Denmark hands over Greenland without any resistance. Trump’s preference, as always, is for the domination and the humiliation of other nations.” – Daniel Larison

The U.S. Deep State goofs, revealing it knows that America’s AI will cause massive unemployment, but accepts this in order for U.S. to retain its global supremacy. – “It is now committed to WW3, if necessary, in order to prevent China becoming the world’s largest economy.” – Eric Zuesse

130,000 Jobs Added. One Million Jobs Erased. – “The Jobs Recession Isn’t Over Yet” – Peter Nayland Kust

What About Employment? – “Well here it is folks….. Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 130,000 in January, and the unemployment rate changed little at 4.3 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Job gains occurred in health care, social assistance, and construction, while federal government and financial activities lost jobs. ADP reported a tepid headline number with nearly all of it in health care. That was followed by this out of BLS which surprisingly confirmed it: Health care added 82,000 jobs in January, with gains in ambulatory health care services (+50,000), hospitals (+18,000), and nursing and residential care facilities (+13,000). Job growth in health care averaged 33,000 per month in 2025. We should rename that “health-related financial extraction services” because I assure you that there were not 82,000 new nurses and doctors minted last month. Indeed only about 200,000 nurses graduate and receive their RNs annually and of course some people retire too so that’s not net adds, its gross degrees granted. When an economy becomes this unbalanced as an ever-increasing number over the space of decades bad things are going to happen.” – Karl Denninger

He warns that without continued monetization and liquidity injections, asset markets could fracture, potentially triggering a severe recession that would be difficult to contain given persistent inflation and rising federal deficits.” – Liberty and Finance

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

7 Things That Will Happen When the Economy Collapses – “An economic collapse can take several forms, but most have a few things in common. Some start out as a prolonged recession that erodes the economic foundation over time. Whereas others, like the start of the Great Depression and the collapse of the Soviet Union, seemed to happen quickly. Even if the signs of eminent failure had been on the horizon for months or years in advance. History shows the same warning signs appearing again and again. Wealth steadily concentrates among a small elite, while a growing share of the population struggles to keep up with rising costs and stagnant incomes” – Eric Beuning
