THE BIG PICTURE

No Matter Where You Go, There You Are – “I have no doubt that everyone who has not lived their life on a desert island has heard this worn out cliche, or some variation of it. Yet, as is so often the case, this saying has become a cliche because it it is obviously true. In every moment, and in every place, we are always ourselves, neither more nor less. We do not transform as if by magic into a completely different person merely by changing locations. All that we are—all our hopes, all our dreams, and all our fears necessarily come along for the ride. No matter where we go, there we are, and there we will be. Whatever God calls us to do, whatever plan He has for our lives, will always be there as well.” – Peter Nayland Kust

The CDC Planned Quarantine Camps Nationwide – “No matter how bad you think Covid policies were, they were intended to be worse. Consider the vaccine passports alone. Six cities were locked down to include only the vaccinated in public indoor places. They were New York City, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, Washington, D.C., and Seattle. The plan was to enforce this with a vaccine passport. It broke. Features of the CDC’s edicts did incredible damage. It imposed the rent moratorium. It decreed the ridiculous “six feet of distance” and mask mandates. It forced Plexiglas as the interface for commercial transactions. Even with all that, worse was planned. CDC issued a plan for establishing nationwide quarantine camps. ” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

In Defense of Luigi – “The man who shot (and killed) the insurance mafia CEO is seen by some as a sympathetic figure. Perhaps because insurance mafia CEOs cut a very unsympathetic figure. He – the insurance mafia CEO – had it coming, some might say. This doesn’t mean Luigi didn’t commit murder. John Gotti did that when he took out “Big Paul” Castellano outside of Sparks Steak House in New York. Gotti was a thug, certainly – but so was Castellano. Regardless, the fact remains that the health insurance mafia is exactly like the car insurance mafia in that both leveraged the government to force people to fork it over. That is strong-arm robbery by any reasonable understanding and almost everyone understands that everyone has a natural right to defend themselves when confronted by a strong-armed robber. The health insurance mafia emulates these same tactics. It extorts and it extracts and when it is asked to pay, it denies. This made Luigi angry – as it has made most of us angry. Is there anyone who thinks the health insurance mafia isn’t one? That likes these mafiosi? We have all heard about people bankrupted and hounded by these mafiosi for every last cent they can extract. This is not to say Luigi didn’t murder that man. Just as John Gotti took out “Big Paul.”” – Eric Peters

Fake It ‘Til You Make It – The Dems’ New Campaign Motto – “What is it with Democrats and their fake supporters, fake accents, fake backgrounds, fake accomplishments?

2026 Midterms Very, Very Tight Election (VIDEO0 with Martin Armstrong – “It’s a 50/50 deal where we didn’t see either party coming in with a landslide. The bottom line looks like the Democrats can take the House, but not the Senate. So, you will have a 50/50 divided government. You are going to get a lot of the crazies on the Democrat side. Even the conservative Democrats are getting very nervous. You recently had (Democrat) James Carville talking about how the party is going to split, which was our forecast in 2024” – Greg Hunter

Americans are falling into the socialist trap by blaming capitalism for the damages of statism. – “Statism is the gradual replacement of civil society, markets, savings, and individual choice by political control, public spending, regulation, taxation, and monetary intervention.

In Memoriam: The US Gold Dollar (Like It Or Not, It Will Be Forced Back And Soon ) – “Unknown to may, the drive for disconnecting the dollar from gold was headed not by President Nixon but by David Rockefeller’s former personal assistant and future Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker. Volker is lauded as having saved the US dollar by raising the Fed Funds Rate to 19% in 1980 when, in reality, Volker doomed it by pitching the dollar overboard into a sea of assured continual debasement. With the disconnect of America’s dollar from gold, America’s gold was thereafter statically held by the US Treasury as a strategic asset at three primary vault locations: West Point, NY, Denver, Colorado and at Fort Knox, Kentucky. Rumors started to arise about America’s vaulted gold and continue to this day with Rand Paul assuring the world that Fort Knox gold was “present and accounted for” after he toured Fort Knox on Monday last week. Mr. Paul: you’re not helping.” – David Jensen

The Survival Pantry’s Missing Ingredient: Fat – “Most long-term food plans are built around bulk carbohydrates. Rice, wheat, oats, pasta, flour, beans and dehydrated potatoes are inexpensive, easy to store and capable of supplying an impressive number of calories. On paper, the pantry looks ready. The problem becomes apparent when those foods must sustain adults performing hard physical work for months rather than sheltering through a short emergency.

VERSES FOR THE DAY

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4   Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;  Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

You know I can be found
Sitting home all alone
If you can’t come around
At least please telephone
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true

Baby, if I made you mad
For something I might have said
Please, let’s forget my past
The future looks bright ahead
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
I don’t want no other love
Baby, it’s just you I’m thinking of

Don’t stop thinking of me
Don’t make me feel this way
Come on over here and love me
You know what I want you to say
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
Why should we be apart?
I really love you, baby, cross my heart

Let’s walk up to the preacher
And let us say, “I do,”
Then you’ll know you’ll have me
And I’ll know that I’ll have you
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
I don’t want no other love
Baby, it’s just you I’m thinking of

Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true
I don’t want no other love
Baby, it’s just you I’m thinking of

( Don’t Be Cruel – by Otis Blackwell, Elvis Aaron Presley )

ELVIS PASSED AWAY 49 YEARS AGO TODAY.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK (BONUS REPEAT FROM A FEW MONTHS AGO)

I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died

Just a country boy
That combed his hair
And he put on a shirt his mother made
And went on the air

And he shook it like a chorus girl
He shook it like a Harlem queen
He shook it like a midnight rambler, baby
Like you never seen

I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died

How he took it all
Out of black and white
Grabbed his wand in the other hand
And he held on tight

And he shook it like a hurricane
He shook it like to make it break
And he shook it like a holy roller, baby
With his soul at stake, his soul at stake

I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died

He was all alone
In a long decline
Thinking how happy John Henry was
That he fell down and died

When he shook it and it rang like silver
He shook it and it shined like gold
He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby
Well, bless my soul, bless my soul

I was thinking that night about Elvis

( Elvis Presley Blues by Gillian Welch )
