Blockade – “The world is threatened by a blockade more deadly than Iran’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. That blockade is the refusal among the West’s ruling class to allow entry of any thoughts not conforming to their prejudices, slogans, and unattainable objectives. If President Trump’s Iran adventure represents what now passes for his and his administration’s mental processes, the U.S. and the world are in grave danger. Trump is not playing with a full deck. Not only are his mental processes visibly deteriorating, but he’s morally compromised in every way possible. His abject servility to Netanyahu, Israel, and the American Jewish lobby may well be due to their ruthless blackmail. He is leading the U.S. to humiliation and defeat that will spell the end of the last vestiges of its failing empire.” – Robert Gore  – GOOD ONE FROM ROBERT WHO HASN’T POSTED IN A WHILE. HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Liberty Lifestyle: Why Are Parents Choosing to Homeschool? – “The homeschool surge is here to stay. Parents and students who choose to homeschool do so for a variety of reasons, including a desire to “customize or individualize” the learning environment or curriculum, achieve more academically, boost family relationships, ensure students’ safety, and teach a “particular set of values, beliefs, and worldview.” The academic benefits of homeschooling are well-documented: Studies show students who are educated at home score 15 to 25 points higher than their public-school counterparts on standardized tests” – Elizabeth Lawrence

The Eternal War at Home – “Reclaiming the Souls of the Next Generation. While America’s builders, warriors, and innovators have invested decades of blood, sweat, and unrelenting focus into external battles and economic survival—securing borders, prosecuting overseas conflicts, and maintaining the nation’s physical and technological infrastructure—the decisive threat has advanced undetected on the domestic front. Through public schools, digital platforms, curricula, cultural programming, and institutional medical practices funded by entrenched elites and aligned networks, an internal campaign has methodically undermined the cognitive, physical, and developmental foundations of our children.” – E.M. Burlingame

Canadian Government Increases Surveillance Of Off-Grid Homes, As Controversial Gun Control Bill Passes “The province remains concerned about off-grid communities in unincorporated areas and the potential for them to be unsafe for the inhabitants…” – The WinePress  – OLDER ARTICLE FROM THE WINEPRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quick Take…UK High Court backs Facial Recognition Rollout – “Yesterday evening, the UK’s High Court ruled in favour of the Metropolitan Police in a legal challenge pertaining to the use of Live Facial Recognition Technology (LFR) across London’s transport network. The case had been brought by Silkie Carlo of Big Brother Watch and Shaun Thompson, a youth worker who was previously misidentified by the technology,. But the High Court judges said “nah”, and dismissed the challenge in favour of the police. Shocking, right? The establishment judges voted in favour of the establishment cops using technology to violate people’s rights in the name of protecting the establishment. ‘Cause for a second there we didn’t know which way that might go. The failure of this legal challenge will open the door for a national rollout of FTR across high streets and transport hubs up and down the country.” – Kit Knightly

NEWS

Iran Attack: Little Difference Between Democrats and Republicans – “Trump’s ignorance, and the MAGA insistence the president is a geopolitical grandmaster, pose a significant danger. The former Speaker of the House and Trump toady, Newt Gingrich, went on Fox Business on April 20 to do what he always does—diss the other side of the uniparty. Gingrich, forever the partisan, said the Democrat faction is “pro-Iranian,” a remark only an aged MAGA Boomer who spends his retirement watching Fox News would believe. Only a MAGA disciple believes the US-Israel attack is successful, which is contrary to reality.” – Kurt Nimmo

Trump TACOs Again! – “Iran does not waver and doesn’t even attend the ceasefire meeting. Trump blinks on his bluff of bombing them as he said earlier today he was certain he was going to have to do.” – David Haggith

Left With Nothing But Gimmicks, Trump Gets Bluff Called Again By Confident Iran – “As the Iranian talks collapsed, Trump again issued a series of major threats about wiping out all Iranian power plants and the like: In response, Iranian leaders laughed in the blowhard’s face. Parliamentary speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf’s advisor wrote that the losing side cannot dictate the terms:” – Simplicius

America’s strike against Iran’s tanker marks a new low point. But who made the decision? – “U.S. submarine torpedoes Iranian tanker, killing 100+ sailors. Trump or Netanyahu? As allies flee and oil hits $4/gal, America’s depravity hits a new low.” – Martin Jay

‘Time Is Running Out For Iran’: The Market Is Calling ‘Bullshit’ On Mainstream’s Narrative, Hugh Hendry Explains… – “”Iran’s oil system is not built to pause. It’s built to flow. It’s a flow system. Pause long enough, and the whole machine breaks. Interrupt that flow. And the problem isn’t just lost revenues of like forty, fifty, sixty billion dollars. It’s the least of your concerns. The problem is physical and is irreversible. Because when you suddenly shut the well, remember there’s no physical storage. They pump, they load, they ship. If they can’t load, if they can’t ship, they can’t pump. And when you suddenly shut the wells, the pressure underground drops fucking fast. Do you know what happens?” – via Tyler Durden – INTERESTING CONTRARIAN VIEW THAT’S OVERLOOKED, BUT IS A VERY GOOD POINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump Gives an Indefinite Cease-Fire to Iran. What Is This War? (VIDEO) – “Trump has two options: (1) end the war without achieving its stated aims and without victory, or (2) continue to fight this destructive and costly Middle East war.” – Glenn Greenwald

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Acts of Chaos and Travesty – “The genocidal apartheid State of Israel has invaded Lebanon seven times since 1948. This time, the Israelis did something really special—they freely admitted that the photo below of one of their genocidal maniacs smashing Jesus’ head is real: The criminal US/Israeli attacks on Iranian women, children, and infrastructure have even succeeded in horrifying Iranian expats and turning them against the war. Cuban expats in Florida must be made of tougher stuff. They would depopulate the whole island to get it back. Are you LGBTQ? Do you want to avoid the apparent total lack of festivities for America’s 250th birthday and party hardy? Well! Israel has the festival for you! ” – Ohio Barbarian  – THE BARBAIAN’S WEEKLY RECAP!!!

Israel to host ‘biggest ever’ Middle East LGBTQ event – “The organizers have promoted the four-day ‘Pride Land’ festival at the Dead Sea as the region’s largest gathering of its kind” – RT

Reality is what the left wants to believe it is – “A couple of weeks ago, Savanah Hernandez, a Turning Point USA reporter, was assaulted by three members of the same family, plus one’s boyfriend, at an anti-ICE protest in Minnesota. There’s video of everything that happened, and it started simple enough. People found out who Hernandez is, and the youngest member of the family started blowing a whistle in Hernandez’s ear. The video shows that Hernandez raised her hand and put it between her and the girl, Paige Ostroushko, and then tried to walk away. What followed was a series of assaults, starting with Paige, then her mother, and finally her father. Apparently, somewhere along the way, Paige’s boyfriend took a shot, too. Again, this is all on video. Beege Welborn’s got a good breakdown of everything at Hot Air. Since then, we’ve seen something fascinating. The video is out there. Anyone who wants to see what happened can do so. It’s right there. However, many on the left are instead siding with the Ostroushko family, buying into the claims by the family, including 250 lbs Dad Chris, who shoved Hernandez to the ground while he was walking away, that they’re not violent.” – Tom Knighton

 

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Kevin Warsh Comes To Town But The Donald Ain’t Gonna Like What Happens Next! – “Here is a salient place to start regarding the economic impact of the Donald’s misbegotten war on Iran: To wit, approximately 7 billion ton-miles of freight moves by truck each and every day in the USA, which heavy truck fleet consumes upwards of 2.9 million barrels per day (mb/d) of diesel fuel. Alas, the price of diesel fuel was about $3.55/gallon both a year ago and as of early January 2026, but has since soared by more than+$2.00 per gallon to $5.60. That’s a 56% rise in the cost of pumping goods and commodities through the arteries of the US economy. On an annualized basis, the diesel fuel bill for the US truck fleet went from $155 billion per year to $250 billion per year at current oil prices. The big question, of course, is through which channel these drastically higher fuel acquisition costs will be absorbed—in higher prices or reduced output? ” – David Stockman

The People Who Print Money Are Buying Gold by the Ton — And That Should Terrify You – “Central banks now own ~18% of all the above ground gold in the world. That is not a typo. The people who can literally print money at will are loading up on the world’s best hedge against currency devaluation. And now by a little… they’re purchasing gold by the hundreds of tonnes per year. The buying binge began in 2020. That year they bought 255 tonnes of gold. The next year, 2021, they bought nearly double that… 463 tonnes of gold. In 2022, things really got serious, with central bank purchases of gold clearing 1,000 tonnes. In fact, this was their highest net purchases of the precious metal since 1950. They repeated this feat in 2023 and 2024, buying over 1,000 tonnes of gold both years. And in 2025, they bought an additional 863 tonnes of gold. As a result of this buying binge, central banks now own more gold than U.S. treasuries as a percentage of foreign reserves.” – Graham Summers, MBA

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Barter Economy Collapse: The Real Items That Replace Money in Crisis – “Most people have never had to think seriously about what happens when money stops working. Not just inflation chewing away at purchasing power, or a bank account temporarily frozen during a dispute, but a full-scale situation where the currency in your wallet becomes about as useful as scrap paper. That is the reality that kicks in during a barter economy collapse, and it has happened more often throughout history than most people are comfortable acknowledging.” – Bob Rodgers  – LINK ABOUT BARTERING QUITE A BIT AND ALWAYS LIKE BOB’S TAKE ON SURVIVAL AND PREPS!!!

But there are real, proven ways to save money on gas that don’t cost a dime to get started, and a handful of gadgets promising miracle fuel economy that you should avoid like a used car with a salvage title. Here’s the full picture.” – Bill Heid
