My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they… (60 second VIDEO) – Who’s putting God first
First Them, Then Us: America’s Shift from Police State to Prison State – “America, you got fooled. Again. For starters, the war on illegal immigration was never just about illegal immigration. If you fell for that, chances are you’re still falling for the government’s oldest trick: manufacture a crisis, identify an enemy, frighten the public, declare an emergency, and then use the resulting fear to justify another expansion of government power. Terrorism. Crime. Drugs. National security. Illegal immigration. Different threats. Same playbook.” – John & Nisha Whitehead
Advancing toward an American police state, one executive order at a time – “Leftist protest group declared terrorist organization; you can bet Democrats will return the favor and ban right-wing protests when they reclaim power. How long can America endure ‘whiplash effect’? Protesting is now viewed as evidence of terrorism. If you are a left winger in America, you are not allowed to protest anymore without being automatically seen as at least a potential threat to “national security.” Your name will likely end up on a list and you could have your civil rights and civil liberties restricted, if not erased.” – Leo Hohmann
Your House Is Private Property Until the Government Decides It Needs It – “Britain has decided that leaving your own property empty for six months may now be sufficient reason for the government to begin taking control of it.” – Martin Armstrong
America.gov is Changing How You Vote (VIDEO) – “”At three in the morning a government website showed me a countdown clock with nine hours and twelve minutes remaining. A ticking clock on a .gov in the dead of night can only mean a handful of things, and none of them are the kind you feel good about, because governments do not build suspense around something they haven’t already completed. So when the most powerful bureaucracy on earth puts up a countdown and a page that peels back at the corner like a birthday card, it means somebody in a room somewhere decided that the launch of a federal website needed the emotional architecture of a product drop. That alone was enough of a red flag. But then I saw the lineup of the salesmen. – Audrey Henson / The Drey Dossier

Rural MAHA followers say Trump hasn’t improved health of their communities, an AP-KFF poll finds – “Yet the survey indicates voters are noticing “this weird split in the Trump administration” between what Kennedy messages and what Trump says and does, said David Peterson, a political science professor at Iowa State University. In Iowa, concerns about what’s causing rising cancer rates are “a big deal,” he said. For many people who identify with MAHA, being healthy includes taking on corporate agriculture and pharmaceutical companies that they think cause cancer, he added” – Ali Swenson Sarah Jane Tribble, and Linley Sanders – IN FACT THEY HAVE LOOSENED THE RESTRICTIONS AGAINST CORPORATE AG AND BIG PHARMA!!
APP-BASED MASS SURVEILLANCE (and we thought Flock was bad…) [Flock Part 6] – “How Apps and Advertisements are SPYING. Although this series was originally intended to be a deep dive into Flock, the road took me elsewhere, and this road that few other researchers are traveling is incredibly important because it all ties together in the end.” – Agent131711

If you are a psychopathic authoritarian monster (or a lackey thereof), they were a good start” – Rima E Laibow MD

Oddly, their website fails to provide the names of anyone affiliated.” – Helena Glass

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Laughing and Lurching Towards the Collapse – “Trump and his sycophants keep puffing that he will order a massive attack of some sort on Iran after the midterms. I submit it could be that after Democrats gain control of Congress, he will resign instead, and is already planning for that. The average price of diesel fuel in the US is around $6.45 per gallon, so with the resulting increase in the price of groceries, many who otherwise would will not be hitting the road this fall. In perhaps the stupidest false flag operation ever, if it wasn’t just a clumsy gang trying to steal fuel, five Iranian looking guys who are British citizens drove and parked minivans around a US Royal Air Force base in southwest England and ran around in the woods for several hours before finally being arrested. I know it’s a false flag because Marco Rubio and Donald Trump both say it’s serious, and because the British let them out on bail.” – Ohio Barbarian – MORE WEEKLY REFLECTIONS FROM THE BARBARIAN!!!
Uncle Sam the Bioterrorist – “From the anthrax letter attacks in 2001 to aerosolized Ebola in 2015 to the development of SARS-CoV-2 in years 2014-2019, the culprit was never a dangerous foreigner, but the US “biosecurity state.”” – John Leake
Data Center Dance – “Data centers, no matter how one feels about them, whether they are a vital part of our defense system, a means of building the surveillance state, or a leap into the future, the methods of securing their contracts and permits are familiar to every other subsidized scheme of the past thirty years. But when we are all left with the massive increase in the cost of living, the data center has gone bust because they built too fast on too much debt and the demand was not really there, but it made the money spiral between corporations and politicians whirr, we will know who led us to that dark and dismal existence.” – T.L. Davis
US to Exit Iraq After Wasting 1.7 Trillion Over 23 Years – “Apparently, it’s mission accomplished, finally.” – Mish
Welfare Ad Sparks MAGA Outrage – “Shockingly, the welfare isn’t even the controversial part. The ad featured a twenty-something guy playing video games, eating cheese balls with a mechanical grabber claw, and otherwise perfecting the art of lazy, horizontal living. “Meet Brad,” Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders purrs from the screen. “Brad has turned relaxing into a full-time profession. But you? You actually work hard. You pay taxes to cover welfare for guys like Brad who just choose not to work.” – Jenna McCarthy – WHAT PISSED THEM OFF IS THAT SHE USED A WHITE GUY IN HER AD, BUT BELIEVE ME, THEY ARE ON WELFARE TOO!!!!!!!!!!!
America’s National Security Scam Rolls On – “Who is doing what to whom? We have today, for example, a government that spies on and interferes with ordinary citizens more than ever has been true in our history and it is all described as being done to keep us safe and secure. But even given the understanding that most governments can and will behave badly, the sheer manipulation of fear by President Donald J Trump has gone far beyond the way the game was rigged for “security” by his predecessors, all of whom have been all too often acting on behalf of domestic lobbies like the Israelis and defense contractors.” – Philip Giraldi
Failing Canada And Britain Blame Trump, Putin, And ‘White Supremacy’ – “Carney and Burnham are Dumb and Dumber.” – J.B. Shurk
The Coming GOP Bloodbath? – “Most indicators suggest that the Republicans in the House and Senate are going to face a brutal backlash from the American people in November. Polling with generic ballots suggest a big win for the Democrats and likely the loss of Republican control of both houses of Congress. There is little reason to cheer a Democratic party victory, however Republicans in charge have for the most part earned what is coming to them. They have refused to uphold their Constitutional obligation to take leading responsibility for war powers.” – Ron Paul
European NATO Fears That The US Won’t Rush To Its Rescue If It Provokes A War With Russia – Andrew Korybko
The Horrible Pete Hegseth- ” I took it for granted that he would do whatever Trump wanted, no matter how outrageous or illegal it might be, and he has proved to be even more horrible than I expected. If Trump’s previous Defense Secretaries sometimes tried to counsel him away from doing stupid and aggressive things, Hegseth has done just the opposite.” – Daniel Larison
Border Patrol Puts Illegal Alien Caravan on Notice – “U.S. Border Patrol is already warning the caravan of illegal aliens recently formed to head toward our southern border that they are going a long way just to be disappointed.” – Catherine Salgado
Gavin Newsom Is Ready for His Next Act. Will Democrats Ever Give Him a Shot at the White House? – “As the governor looks beyond California, he opens up about his political ambitions, his vision for the country, and why he’s chosen Bill Clinton as his 2028 spirit animal. Newsom’s critics question whether he has an actual vision. The first time I ask him, he stumbles. “I think I do,” he says. “I certainly have, as a governor, from a governing perspective—from a campaign perspective, it’s a little different. How do you paint that picture of a journey we can all go on together, where everyone feels included?”” – Joe Hagan
King Charles Has Looted Every Faith: Evangelical, Muslim, Buddhist, Catholic, Sikh – a Full One-third of the Wealth of the Planet – “The Bloated Ambition of that Pouchy Lizard, King Charles.

The GOP’s Original Fiscal Sin—Now Comes The Fiscal Doom Loop ,Part 5 – “The march higher of the 10-year UST yield since the October 22nd low a year ago leaves nothing to the imagination. It’s up 127 basis points, and that ain’t small potatoes when you are lugging a $40 trillion debt. Moreover, the surge higher has been even more dramatic in the case of Uncle Sam’s 30-year bond. Its yield is up to 5.61%, which is the highest level in 24 years.” – David Stockman

Inflation in Pictures – “Ask pretty much anybody, and they’ll tell you we have an inflation problem. But what does that mean? And how did it happen? Most people have no clue. The first problem is that policymakers and the media use a very imprecise definition of inflation. For most people, the word just means “rising prices.” But that doesn’t really tell us anything, does it? All kinds of things can cause rising prices.” – Mike Maharrey

Export Bans Are The Loudest Signal In Food – “I pay attention to food prices, harvest reports, droughts, and whatever is missing from the grocery shelves. But there is one signal that gets my attention faster than almost anything else. A government telling its own farmers or companies to stop exporting food. When a country starts limiting wheat, rice, corn, cooking oil, fertilizer, or another basic commodity, I assume somebody inside that government is worried about future supply or about domestic prices.” – Alec Deacon
