The U.S. and Zionist Israeli Marriage of Evil – “Yes, the House of ‘Representatives’ have signed and passed through the House the National Defense Authorization Act for 2026. (NDAA) This mislabeled behemoth (3,100 pages) called a ‘defense act,’ a $1.15 trillion dollar monstrosity, is the work of evil, warmongering, profiteering, murdering psychopaths; those politicians and their controlling banking and corporate masters, who hold total power over this governing force. This is an atrocity beyond the scope of the lowly masses, who seem to have given up any and every chance to abolish this state of rule called the U.S. government.” – Gary D. Barnett

Tech Firm Rebrands Sex Robot as Hot Teacher, Lands Contract With New York School District – “Last decade, RealBotix established itself as a leading pioneer in the sex robot industry, manufacturing love “companions” for lonely men with disposable incomes. Anyway, in a marketing rebrand, the company plugged up Harmony’s love-holes with calking or whatever so as to render her no longer “anatomically correct,” renamed her Aria, put her in a power-pantsuit, and reinvented her as a girlboss jack-of-all-trades working professional, no longer “intended for sexual purposes.” Now, Harmony the robot love slave, who gave up whoring and got renamed Aria, has once again forged a new path. She’s now a paraprofessional called Sally with a contract to teach public school kids on an Indian reservation in New York.” – Ben Bartee

Why AI slop is bad and people who post AI slop should feel bad – “Substack has partnered with Pangram to enable readers to scan posts, notes and comments for machine-generated text. No AI detector is flawless, but Pangram is pretty much the gold standard. Their algorithms detect AI-generated text more than 95% of the time, with a false positive rate approaching zero. I was very happy to read about this feature, and I think more social media platforms should do something like this before their content descends into a morass of platitudinous computer-generated nonsense.” – eugyppius

Where’s the Turtle? – “The war has diverted attention away from the disappearance of the Dirty Old Turtle, Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. Just as it has diverted attention away from what is colloquially styled the Epstein Files, the contents of which are probably why we’re at war (at the behest of Israel, which was probably running the honeypot operation using Epstein as its willing front man). The case of the Dirty Old Turtle is remarkable in its own right because it is unprecedented – at least in the modern era. As for example the identities of the people who have to know whether the Dirty Old Turtle is alive. Or alive but brain dead. They are his staffers. They may also be criminals. It being a crime to conceal a death. It being fraud to be complicit in the telling of consequential lies pertaining to the public’s business. Imagine you disappeared and had not been in to the office for a month and your co-workers (who knew you were dead or brain dead) told the boss you merely recovering from a “minor” fall and a bout of pneumonia but were fine, fine fine and not to worry.” – Eric Peters

Adapting to Higher Yields – “Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, recently said he wouldn’t buy long-term U.S. Treasuries. His rationale is simple, he “doesn’t understand the upside.” Here at the Economic Prism, we don’t understand the upside either. But, unlike Dimon, we’re not running the largest primary dealer of U.S. Treasuries on Earth. Primary dealers, remember, are the elite financial institutions obligated to participate in U.S. Treasury auctions. Their purpose is to help grease the wheels of Uncle Sam’s multi-trillion-dollar borrowing machine. Yet Dimon, the chief architect of that machine’s biggest partner, just publicly bashed the product.” – MN Gordon

Gold and silver in wartime – “Some analysts tell us that gold goes down in war. This is rubbish. Otherwise, why would countries in the past have suspended their gold standards at wartime? There are some specious arguments being advanced for the lacklustre performance of gold and silver in recent weeks, and the argument above is just one of them. This week, gold and silver showed signs of turning a corner after their major declines since end-January. This morning they are tickling a little better, but investors need to focus on the big picture.” – Alasdair Macleod

New Information Reveals America’s Power Grid Is Running on Empty… And That’s Why Off-Grid Living Makes More Sense Every Day – “Homesteaders have always understood something the modern world keeps forgetting: independence rarely arrives all at once. It begins with one garden bed, one rain barrel, one woodpile, one shelf of canned food, or one backup battery. Each small step reduces the number of things that must go right somewhere else for your family to remain safe. That same thinking belongs in our energy plans.” – Bill Heid

Add a Hand Pump to an Electric Well – “Learn how to install a backup hand pump on an existing well and avoid power-outage droughts.” – Larry Pina

Power from the Wreckage – “Building small, repairable energy systems from the electrical remains of a dead civilization. Eventually, the last commercially manufactured backup-power system will fail. That does not necessarily mark the end of electricity. Modern civilization has scattered electrical equipment almost everywhere. Vehicles contain alternators, motors, heavy cable, fuse blocks, relays, switches and sockets. Buildings contain kilometres of copper wire. Computer backup systems contain batteries, chargers and inverters. Damaged solar installations may still have functional panels. Appliances contain motors, fans, switches, bearings and capacitors.” – denob
