THE BIG PICTURE

Not Getting Dumber – ‘The Linguistic Forge That Built the Minds of the Founding Fathers If we wish to retain the sovereign rights and freedoms that the Founding Fathers carved out of the world—not as inherited trinkets, but as living, defensible ground—we must first restore to ourselves the very linguistic sophistication that enabled them to conceive and secure those freedoms in the first place. They didn’t stumble into liberty through slogans or sentiment. They wrote, debated, and persuaded their way into it, using sentences that could hold a dozen qualifications, balance competing principles, and bind abstract philosophy to practical governance. Their words weren’t decoration; they were the tools of self-rule.” – E.M. Burlingame

WHO in “panic mode” as World Health Assembly kicks off – “Essentially, it’s a week-long exercise in saying, as loud and long possible, “We’re really important.” And thank goodness it came along when it did, because…wow. The hantavirus outbreak is tearing through the world at the unstoppably terrifying rate of five whole deaths every two months. That’s about 30 deaths in a year or about 0.25% of the number of people who’ll died from falling down stairs. In Africa, the Ebola virus went from zero to “emergency” in no time at all, and the African CDC had no choice but to go into panic mode.” – Kit Knightly

Is A Future War Between The US And Europe Unavoidable? – Brandon Smith

We Owe a Debt of Gratitude -“We Owe a Debt of Gratitude We owe a debt of gratitude to Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin as the perpetrators of world peace. Putin for being willing to win the Ukraine War in small increments so as not to trigger precipitous action on the part of NATO fools —especially the US under Biden—now under Trump. Trump’s visit to China had no plan. For a visit to be a summit requires an advance diplomatic team to negotiate what is hoped to be accomplished. Without preparation—nothing got resolved. Instead, Xi treated it as a trade mission, not requiring that he be on the tarmac to greet Air Force One.” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com

An Election For The Ages – “When it comes to the stakes involved in UniParty election races, dueling hyperbole is often the essence of the matter. But not here. Not this time. Not in the fraught battle in the 4th District of Kentucky. The outcome of the Massie/Gallrein race on Tuesday may truly prove to be the inflection point at which, in its 250th year, the American Republic was either lost….or vindicated to thereby bestow its blessings upon generations to come.” – David Stockman

Today’s The Day… Will Massie Be Ousted? – Tyler Durden

Thomas Massie’s opponent Ed Gallatin in today’s congressional race says he’d bring back THE DRAFT to the US. He also talks about a WORLD WAR. – LawyerLisa

There Is No Freedom in an Assassination Nation – “To date, President Trump and the US national-security branch of the federal government (i.e., the Pentagon, the CIA, and the NSA) have assassinated around 200 people in small boats on the high seas near South America. Such assassinations are quickly becoming a normalized part of American life, especially within the mainstream press.” – Jacob G. Hornberger

When Success Becomes Sin – “The frightening thing about America’s new politics isn’t just the rage, it’s who it’s aimed at.” – Quoth the Raven

Lindsey Graham’s “Circle of Death” – “Instead of the carrot-and-stick approach, Trump may use the stick and stick approach. ‘The senator from South Carolina has taken an idea from the Zionist playbook. It’s called the “Circle of Death.” In Gaza, the Zionists use yellow lines. The lines are invisible and when hapless Palestinians—men, women, children—straggle across it, the IDF murders them. Graham wants the same in Iran. – ” Kurt Nimmo

Trump Calls High Gas Prices ‘Peanuts’ as Economic Approval Rating Plunges – “”This is peanuts. I appreciate everybody putting up with it for a little while. But I don’t even think about. What I think about is you can’t let Iran have a nuclear weapon,” Trump told reporters at the White House.” – Gabe Whisnant

“The people have reached their breaking point”’- Evo Morales – (VIDEO) – “Oscar Leon interviews Evo Morales, former president of Bolivia and leader of the country’s indigenous and peasant sectors, about the national uprising which now threatens the survival of the government of neoliberal President Rodrigo Paz.

The UN is bringing the world to Nairobi — and pricing locals out of it – “As the United Nations expands its headquarters in the name of efficiency and ’empowering’ the Global South, residents living beside the diplomatic enclave fear rising rents and displacement.” – Collapse Life

The Taiwan, America, China Triangle of Power Over Chip Manufacturing – Helena Glass

Trump’s Momentous China Trip a Bust, Amidst Cordial But Unimpressed Xi – “Trump’s widely-publicized trip to China had a great deal at stake, represented by the fact that Trump took with him the heads of every major US industry he could think of, presumably to reach some kind of historic “grand bargain” with the ascendant Eastern superpower. But while the trip generated some useful optics, and Trump and his claque appeared mostly well-behaved and conducted themselves respectfully relative to visits to other subordinate vassal-states, by all appearances it would seem none of the goals were achieved. Nobody is talking about what actually moved and what didn’t.” – Simplicius

 

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Face-Ripping Inflation Is Coming Your Way! – “All the news today underscores all the news and predictions I shared yesterday. My weekend Deeper Dive laid out for paying subscribers what I think is a strong case for blistering inflation, the likes of which we’ve never seen. The case is made based on facts currently on the ground that are already storming your way. It even makes a case for one highly possible scenario under which inflation may take off in a single month like a rocket. That single event is entirely in Iran’s hands, and it is looking more likely.” – David Haggith

30-year Treasury yield tops 5.19%, highest since before the financial crisis – “Yields on U.S. Treasurys advanced Tuesday as investors continued to dump bonds on fears inflation is reigniting.

The 10-year U.S. Treasury note yield — the key benchmark for mortgage and auto loans and credit card debt — added 6 basis points higher to 4.687%, the highest since January 2025.

Silver’s “Collapse” to $76 Is the Funniest Panic Yet – “Silver dropped from roughly $85 to $76… and suddenly the financial media is acting like the party’s over. Really?” – Kerry Lutz | Financial Survival Network

Hitting The Wall: Inflation, Debt Crisis, And Gold & Silver Outlook – “The war in Iran has sparked fears of inflation and a selloff in sovereign debt around the globe. Slightly higher rates can be managed by global central banks, but sharply higher rates cannot. As such, a moment is fast approaching where central bankers will be forced to choose between greasing the monetary pump or fighting inflation. History suggests they’ll choose the former, not the latter.” – Craig Hemke

You probably have all sorts of preps already.”- Daisy Luther

Plant These Herbs Once and You’ll Have Them Forever – Olivia Brooks

The Less I Give a Sh*t, the Better Life Gets (VIDEO) – “It’s about worry, stress, getting older, and learning to stop wasting energy on things we can’t fix, can’t change, and have no control over. I’ve spent too much of my life worrying about things that were already done, things that might never happen, and things I couldn’t do anything about anyway. At some point, you have to learn to let some of it go.” -The View From Appalachia / M.D. Creekmore
