THE BIG PICTURE

The Staged ‘War’ Between the U.S., Israel, and Iran Is a Trap – “What began by looking like a simple and horrible ‘war’ of brutal aggression against Iran by the U.S on orders from Zionist Israel, has now shown its real colors. It has become impossible to view this as any real ‘war,’ and it has become obvious that this strategy, all these false flags; are at best a coordinated effort by those globalist oligarchs striving to digitize, starve, and control the world through technocratic means. This is all being played out with a particular script meant to achieve multiple agendas, nefarious all, and to in essence, figuratively capture and cage all of the masses, taking control by psychological, digital, and physical measures to eliminate much of society while taming and altering the rest. All of this is contingent on eliminating the individual.” – Gary D. Barnett

Death Throes of the American Empire – “Iran Might Take it All Down. The American empire approaches a tipping point. The 2026 US-Iran war threatens the dollar’s dominance and the established global order. Every empire comes to an end, often to the sound of applause. Sometimes a new order is formed to pick up the pieces. Sometimes the transition is marked by global chaos, nationalism, and isolationism.” – Sarah Connor

President Trump’s Ballroom Is Cover for the Biggest AI Data Center in the World – “FDR did it. GWB did it. Now DJT is doing it and this is the most consequential White House move in decades. Follow the Money Into the Ground: the donor list deserves scrutiny not because it represents corruption, but because it reveals the project’s actual architecture. Among the 37 confirmed donors are Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Apple, Meta — the full constellation of American cloud computing. Also present: Booz Allen Hamilton, which generates 98 percent of its revenue from U.S. government contracts and specializes in intelligence and data analytics. And most telling: Palantir Technologies and Lockheed Martin. ” – JD Rucker

Canadian Parliament Passes Hate Crime Law That Could Fine And Jail Residents For Quoting The Bible And Promoting Antisemitism – “Free speech and freedom of religion are now under grave threat and scrutiny after the Canadian Parliament passed a bill allowing for the criminalization of religious beliefs, specifically when quoting passages from The Bible. On March 26th, the Canadian House passed Bill C-9, Combating Hate Act” – The WinePress

New Bill Opens Door for Killer AI Weapons—Pentagon Can Override Ban and Deploy Autonomous Lethal Systems – “Waiver clause grants a single Pentagon official the power to authorize AI-driven lethal force under “national security” conditions, with Congress only notified after the factJon” – Jon Fleetwood

The Cult of American Exceptionalism – “American exceptionalism is often mistaken for a political policy, but it is actually a form of religion, a semi-secular cult. It demands faith rather than evidence. While frequently associated with the political right, its core tenets permeate the entire American psyche, including some on the left who claim to oppose the status quo. Above all, stands the absolute conviction of most Americans, but especially the ruling class, that America is divinely graced, on this earth to lead humanity towards prosperity and light. Chosen by God!” – Ashes of Pompeii

The Sound of an Empty Chamber – “In the final scene of 1950’s Saturday-afternoon Westerns, the bad-guy pulled the trigger and the only sound from his revolver was the click on an empty chamber. He ran out of bullets—only to meet his fate. That what’s happening in wars perpetuated by the US/Israel. Each has an outcome determined by number of troops—and more importantly, ammunition. For example, in Ukraine, Russia fires 8X more artillery than Ukraine (NATO)—hence 8X more Ukrainians die. There’s a difference. In Ukraine, the Russian strategy is well thought-out. In Iran, the US/Israel has no strategy. If they have a strategy, it’s to create chaos—a strategy devoid of military intelligence, having to rely on decapitation strikes and carpet-bombing. And because Iran is proving to be resilient, US bombing targets are increasingly—war crimes on civilians.” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com

Trump Signals Final Sadistic Punishment as Consolation For Lost War “If you must end it emptily, end it loudly.” – Simplicius

‘Burn It Down’: Destruction Of Persian Gulf Energy & Fertilizer Production Capacity – “What Is The Primary Goal Of The Attack On Iran? With the daily flip-flopping that we see, the marketing of the war effort has become a farce. Apparently. However, as mentioned previously, the vast scale of the Iranian military’s missile and drone programs were well known before the attack began as was Iran’s resulting attacks on countries supporting the US/Israeli effort. Nobody was shocked. It is thus no surprise that today oil and LNG production and shipping facilities are on fire throughout the Gulf and that production, refining, and shipping capacity will likely be impaired for years to come if things go well.” – David Jensen

Trump lashes out at UK and France, telling allies ‘the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore – Holly Ellyatt and Kevin Breuninger

Gangster Trump The Rhetoric of Obliteration – “Nice country you have there, Iran. It’d be a shame if you lost it. That’s the gist of Donald Trump’s recent threats to Iran on “Truth Social.” It’s hard to exaggerate how demented this post is. So, the Iran War is a war of “retribution”? The U.S. is butchering and killing because allegedly the Iranians have “butchered and killed”? And the Don is going to “obliterate” Iran’s power grid and possibly desalinization plants as well, possibly killing millions of innocents over time, because Iran has quite predictably exerted control over the Strait of Hormuz?” – Bill Astore

Hijacking Religion: How the Pentagon Turned the Sermon on the Mount into a War Manual. – “The language of modern government is the language of empire. It is the language of domination, retaliation, conquest and control—of enemies to be crushed, nations to be subdued, and dissenters to be silenced. Under the Trump Administration, the language of empire has also been imbued with a religious fervor that recasts Jesus Christ—not as a peacemaker—but as a mascot for power, conquest and control. War has been dressed up in patriotism. Wrapped in Scripture. Called “righteous.” Marketed as “peace through strength.” But this is not a holy war. It is a political war dressed up as holy.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

Trump Still Trumped – “Reality speaks louder than the president who keeps tying his own words in knots. First, on the main subject, the president continued today to boast about how well negotiations are going, Iran continues to say everything he says about negotiations is a lie.” – David Haggith

Is Israel behind “Iran-backed terror cell” targeting Europe? (VIDEO) – Wyatt Reed / The Grayzone

In widening NATO spat, Rubio calls for the alliance to be “reexamined” while Trump tells U.K. and other allies that “the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore. – “We’re in the middle of another NATO spat. The Americans are accusing the Europeans of disloyalty and ungratefulness, while the Europeans are quietly (or, in the case of Spain, not-so-quietly) criticising the Iran war and preparing for the looming energy crisis. Spain was the first NATO ally to deny the United States access to the jointly operated Rota and Morón air bases for Operation Epic Fury.” – eugyppius

Trump Goes Commando – “Iran “raid” replaces ground war and you’re supposed to clap. Most Americans are bracing for a massive ground invasion of Iran, one that military sources tell me will not happen. That’s because there’s another plan entirely. What’s in store is a “raid,” all of these sources agree. Of course, it all depends on what Donald Trump orders, and sources say they don’t know what that might be on any given day. So they offer the White House different alternatives,” – Ken Klippenstein

Renowned trends forecaster Gerald Celente predicts Trump won’t order ground invasion of Iran unless… – “He suggests that only one thing could force Trump’s hand to do the unthinkable and launch full-fledged ground invasion” – Leo Hohmann

Warning From The Heartland: Historic Drought And Unexpected Fertilizer Shortages Could Mean Massive Crop Losses – Michael Snyder

US Treasury Launches ‘Office Of The Whistleblower,’ Encourages Americans Report Fraud And Snitch On Churches, Bessent To Offer Cash Rewards “President Trump has been clear that Americans have a right to know that their tax dollars are not being diverted to fund acts of global terror or to fund luxury cars for fraudsters.” – The WinePress   – WHICH CONGRESSMAN DO WE START WITH FIRST!!!!

The Kiev grifter regime taps the Gulf war racket – “When Ukraine’s puppet president shows up anywhere, one should immediately suspect a scam in the making. Corruption follows this con artist and his crony regime like a bad smell. His schtick of turning up at summits begging for more Western taxpayer billions has grown tiresome and, frankly, a bit implausible given the embezzlement scandals that the Kiev regime is mired in. But, fear not, the grifter machine that passes for an unelected presidency in Ukraine has found an exciting new diversification for export markets. The trouble is that this capitalist business model has quite a few holes in it, if one cares to look. Five weeks of war in the Middle East have created a profitable business opportunity.” – Finian Cunningham

Ukraine’s Strikes Against Russian Oil Refineries Risk Worsening The Global Energy Crisis – “The further reduction of Russian oil exports could lead to a price spike that destabilizes the global economy and ultimately weakens the US’ one as well, but it’s unclear whether Trump will punish Zelensky for this or if he cynically wants him to facilitate that scenario as part of a global reset.” – Andrew Korybko

Jerome Powell tells Congress: “Good luck with that debt problem…” – “Yesterday, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell admitted that the math no longer works. “Our debt is growing substantially faster than our economy.

Comex Report: Ignore the Paper Price and Watch the Physical Metal – “The CME Comex is the Exchange where futures are traded for gold, silver, and other commodities. The CME also allows futures buyers to turn their contracts into physical metal through delivery. The data below looks at contract delivery where the ownership of physical metal changes hands within CME vaults. It also shows data that details the movement of metal in and out of CME vaults. It is very possible that if there is a run on the dollar, and a flight into gold, this is the data that will show early warning signs.” – Peter Schiff

Farm Action’s Letter to Congress, Lambasting the Concentration of Fertilizer Makers and its Impact on Prices – “Waves of mergers and acquisitions across food and agriculture have funneled power into the hands of a few dominant corporations. Their unchecked integration has hollowed out competition, giving them outsized control over how Americans farm, work, and eat,” – Wolf Richter

The “Good News” Is Always the Same: the Stock Market Is Up–Until It Isn’t – Charles Hugh Smith

THE US IS INSOLVENT THE DEBT CAN NEVER BE REPAID – After a strong rise over the past few years, a correction has naturally raised doubts. But focusing on short-term movements risks missing the broader reality. Because precious metals are not driven by sentiment or market timing. They are driven by the underlying condition of the financial system itself. And that condition is best understood through one simple lens: debt. Over the past decades, US debt has not grown linearly, but exponentially—” – Egon von Greyerz

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

How Prepper OPSEC Mistakes Turn You Into a Target – “Most preppers spend years quietly building their supplies, skills, and plans. They invest real money in food storage, water filtration, communications gear, and defensive tools. Then, in a single unguarded conversation with the wrong person, or through one too many posts on a public social media account, all of that careful work gets exposed. Operational security, commonly called OPSEC, is what stands between your preparations and the people who would take them from you when things go sideways.” – David Andrew Brown

Amish Chicken Coops: The Self-Sufficient Prepper’s Ultimate Guide – “When the grid goes down, the supply chain breaks, or inflation makes grocery store eggs a luxury, the people eating well are the ones who built their food production into their property. Amish chicken coops are not a trend. They are not a lifestyle aesthetic imported from a farmhouse magazine. They are a centuries-old engineering solution to a real and permanent problem: how do you keep chickens alive, productive, and secure without electricity, synthetic materials, or factory infrastructure?” – Ask A Prepper Staff
