THE BIG PICTURE

Flock Doesn’t Like Being Watched – “Just as Gavin Newsom and other “COVID” tyrants didn’t abide by their own “guidelines,” Flock camera installers don’t like being watched, either. A guy named Brendan Keefe who works as a journalist for InvestigateTV got a tip from his daughter that someone was putting up a Flock camera near his home in Atlanta, GA. He went to the location to watch and record what was going on, just like the Flock cameras watch and record us. When the Flock installer got in his Flockmobile, Keefe followed, to see where he went next and to watch what he did next – just like the Flock cameras do to us. Apparently, what’s good for the goose is not good for the gander. The worker who was putting up the Flock camera called the cops on Keefe, who was treated to a Hut! Hut! Hut! for doing what Flock does” – Eric Peters

Trump Publicly Backs Flock Cameras: ‘I Like Them’ – “Yeah. No, I sort of like them because of that, because of law enforcement, but some people don’t. They think it’s an infringement. And I like them.” – The WinePress

Activists threaten boycotts against retailers if they don’t cancel Flock contracts and stop sharing customers’ data with the government – “Lowe’s, Home Depot and others are called on to cancel their contracts with the Atlanta-based AI surveillance company.” – Leo Hohmann

Police Chiefs To Hold Secret Briefing For Congress On Flock Style Cameras – “Flock comes to Washington” – Dan Boguslaw

Harvest Crisis Update: Diesel Tops $6 + USDA FOIA Response (VIDEO) – “Farmers squeezed by record high diesel prices as midwest refinery shuts down. Three weeks ago I said watch diesel as we go into harvest. Prices have exploded since; ExxonMobil’s Joliet refinery just shut down unexpectedly, and the situation in the Middle East keeps getting worse. Other voices are now also warning about crop abandonment as expenses are making a harvest economically unviable. Also: the USDA responds to one of my FOIAs about DARPA’s Tellus sensing-and-reporting microbes in the food supply” – UNSHADOWED (formerly known as Ice Age Farmer)

Controlling the Climate – “How Do the Rothschilds Manipulate the Weather? Why would E.L. Rothschild LLC seek controlling interest in the leading provider of interactive weather graphics and data services for television, the web, and mobile devices?” – Jordan Nuttall

The Autopsy Evidence They Ordered Funeral Directors to Destroy – “Revisiting the science of “the clots” with new landmark study…” – Karla Treadway

Conservative, Liberal, Libertarian, Independent: What Difference Does it Make? – “In a word, the answer to the title question is none. By now, most of you know how I feel about politics, politicians, and government; this includes all voting and ignorant rants about being ‘free’ under any government.” – Gary D. Barnett

In the Land of the Conspiracy Deniers – “Dangerous tools of a corrupt state. The 25th anniversary of 9/11 has really brought out the trolls. I don’t know how many of them are paid, but X has been invaded by illogic, as an army of shills attempts lamely to prop up one of their most important lies. It’s the same insidious hivemind mentality that insists we ignore every giant cultural elephant destroying the room.” – Donald Jeffries

The Constitution Can’t Protect You If You Don’t Protect It – “What’s the point in celebrating the Constitution one day a year if we permit the government to violate it the other 364? September 17 marks the anniversary of the signing of the U.S. Constitution, a document designed not merely to establish a government but to restrain it. Yet restraint is in increasingly short supply. Across the political spectrum, Americans continue to tolerate abuses of power so long as those abuses are carried out by the “right” people, against the “wrong” people, or in the name of some emergency deemed too important to question. That is how constitutional government dies.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

The Soros/Trump Cartel Challenging The BRICS With Coups & Piracy – “Follow The Money. The Soros/Rothschild Cartel have made it clear for over a decade that Russia and America needed to be destroyed in order for the Agenda to grow their power. Trump is doing the bidding of Soros in collapsing the US economy and inciting civil war reactionaries. Bessent, coming directly from Soros Fund Management solidifies the Cartel’s control.” – Helena Glass

Bush’s Islamic Appeasement Greatly Damaged America – “Islam is an ideology of war and conquest, not a religion of peace.” – J.B. Shurk

A New Washington Colossus – “Trump’s vision of “his” federal capital continues to irritate. George Washington aside, President Donald Trump really is working hard to make both the city of Washington and the nation all about himself. ” – Philip Giraldi

Energy Truce In Shambles: Ukraine Strikes Russian Refinery Despite Trump’s Warning Amid Global Diesel Crisis – “It’s going to be an expensive winter in the West.” – Tyler Durden

Trumpophrenia: White House Says Trump Stops Hurricanes; Leads Crowd In Pledge To Him To Cheat In Midterms Or ‘Go To Hell’; Slams ‘Conspiracy Theorists’ For Resisting AI And Data Centers – “I’m tired, boss. I know you all are sick and tired of Trump’s nonsense, I am too; and while I realize I am not obligated to talk about this stuff, and I am getting to the point where I am just not even going to bother with most of it unless I absolutely need to. It’s hard not to not talk about him so often because what he is doing, what his administration are doing at such a blistering pace is mind-numbing, and it’s things that affect us all and our children (assuming we live long enough to see that). Once again, Trump is crashing out over Americans not accepting AI and data centers. The man has been tasked by his handlers to promote and implement the 4th Industrial Revolution and the technocratic Great Reset, but fortunately there is a growing number of Americans across different aisles who are privy to what is going on, and they are pushing back.” – The WinePress

A Speech for the Ages: Bobby Kennedy Lays Waste to Democrats – “It will rank as one of the most power-packed speeches ever delivered on the decline of the Democratic Party.” – Tim Donner

Would we have been better off if Harris had won? – “Red and Blue they both make you look like a fool! One thing I’ve noticed over and over again is what happens whenever I criticize Donald Trump, one of his policies, or something he says that simply isn’t true. Almost immediately somebody will say, “Well, I guess you would rather have had Kamala Harris.” No. That isn’t the point. Whether Harris would have been better or worse has nothing to do with whether Trump is telling the truth or whether a particular policy is good for the country. ” – M.D. Creekmore

It’s Time To Talk About The Shitting… – “Britain now needs signs telling people not to treat the high street like a field in Uttar Pradesh. The “enrichment” we were sold was cuisine, music and vibrant street life. What arrived, in town after town, is a sanitation standard the UN still spends billions trying to wipe out of third world nations.” – Steve Watson

The State of the EU: What von der Leyen won’t say in her speech – “The European Commission president will push a vision of the bloc that is handing momentum to the political opposition” – RT

Sydney Sweeney’s Got Balls – “The sports-betting world has apparently stumbled upon a previously-undiscovered law of human nature and decided to exploit the hell out of it. Are you even ready for this? Sex sells. I’m not making that up. If outrage were tequila shots, we’d all be getting our stomachs pumped right now. “Sydney Sweeney advert sparks backlash from female athletes,” The New York Times declared. Australian surfer Felicity Palmateer condemned the campaign as “incredibly disappointing,” and accused Sweeney of sending women’s sports back several decades in forty sexist seconds. “We want to be valued for what we can do, not what we look like,” Palmateer pouted. The controversial bombshell silently clapped back by posting a series of photos of actual athletes posing naked, most of the pictures were pulled from ESPN’s famous Body Issue, which spent 11 years photographing more than 200 elite athletes undressed in what ESPN called a celebration of the “power of the athletic form.” Apparently naked bodies and sporting equipment peacefully coexisted for more than a decade without causing the collapse of female athletics. The obvious difference is that ESPN was celebrating bodies that do extraordinary things while Novig is shamelessly using an extraordinary-looking body to sell something. I don’t know who needs to hear this, but that would be the advertisement part.” – Jenna McCarthy

Money-Market Funds & CDs: Americans Pile on Low-Risk Investments despite so-so Yields & Higher Inflation – “Yields of money market funds, currently below 3.75% after fees, aren’t as attractive as they were in the first half of 2024 when their yields went over 5%. Nevertheless, households have further increased their holdings.” – Wolf Richter

Failure Of The Money Printers And The Four Bre’r Rabbits Of AI Land – “Nope. The August CPI report did not sound the “all clear” for a new round of money-printing. And that’s notwithstanding all the hoopla to that effect by the boys and girls down on Wall Street subsequent to Friday’s release. Actually, the annualized rate of our trusty 16% trimmed mean CPI posted at 2.64% in August, which was actually in line with its path of the last 41 months and even a tad higher than the 2.53% level it posted way back in March 2023. So no cigar, Kevin Warsh. Keep those printing presses hard on the idle setting.” – David Stockman

BRICS Summit Takes Aim at U.S. Influence Over the Global Economy – “BRICS demanded greater developing-country influence at the IMF, World Bank and WTO but avoided directly naming the United States in its criticism.” – Eurasianet

“Grow Our Way Out of Debt” Is Code for Inflation – “Last week, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent sat down for a fireside chat at Southern Methodist University in Dallas and told the room what the plan is for the national debt. “We don’t have a revenue problem,” he said. “We have a spending problem.” Contain the spending, add 3% growth, and America can “grow our way out of this.” That’s a nice idea… and, it’s possible. The key part there is the spending freeze: arrest the growth in federal spending, and the deficit will eventually melt away. The problem, of course, is that Congress won’t even cut obvious fraud.” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

Inflation killed the penny. Now it’s coming for your dollar. – “Washington solved a 3.69-cent problem in the middle of a $100+ oil shock. And soon the Fed will likely charge you more for every dollar.” – Charlie Garcia

Swap Lines: The Federal Reserve Extends Its Tightrope – “A primer on this fiat money tool. A swap line is an agreement between the Federal Reserve and a foreign central bank to exchange currencies at a fixed rate, with a promise to reverse the trade in the near future at that same rate (plus a tad). The Fed prints up dollars and loans them to, say, the European Central Bank. The ECB prints up some digital euros and provides them to the Fed as collateral. The ECB then lends the dollars to banks in its own system that are short of them. Why does a foreign country need this? Because half the planet’s trade, debt, and derivatives run in dollars. A bank can run short of a currency it doesn’t control. The swap line exists to fix that “problem” by supplying USD where needed” – John Hunt, MD

When Chickens, Wood Stoves, And Burn Barrels Become Violations – “One of the easiest mistakes a prepper can make is assuming that because something happens on his own property, he is free to do it. I understand the instinct. If I own the backyard, why shouldn’t I keep six hens? If I buy a wood stove, why shouldn’t I heat my house with it? If I have branches and yard waste piling up, why shouldn’t I burn them? The answer is that property ownership comes with layers of rules most people never read until somebody complains.” – Alec Deacon  – TOO MANY RULES AND REGULATIONS, TIME FOR A CHANGE!!!

Securing the Night After the Grid Fails – “When the electrical grid fails, night changes almost immediately. Streetlights disappear. Houses go dark. Security cameras stop transmitting once their batteries and internet connections fail. Familiar roads become difficult to navigate, and ordinary sounds carry farther through quiet neighbourhoods. Anyone using a flashlight, lantern or illuminated window can be seen from a surprising distance. During the first evening, most people will treat the blackout as an inconvenience. They will search for candles, check their phones and wait for the power to return. If the outage continues, however, darkness begins to affect how people behave.” – denob
