THE BIG PICTURE

We Are One Body In Christ – “We owe it to ourselves for this reason to take care how we speak to each other during any interaction. We cannot lift people up if our words are tearing them down. We cannot bear true witness if our words are false. Sadly, what we see all too often, both in social media and elsewhere, are people spewing angry, hateful, even vile words. What we see all too often are people spreading lies and slanders about each other. What we see all too often are people whose witness is the epitome of false witness, the polar opposite of true witness.” – Peter Nayland Kust

The World Is no Longer Made Up of Independent Nations as Globalization Is Sought – “It should be obvious by now that nations and countries worldwide are working together as one, even as they pretend to be enemies, which indicates that nefarious theatre is alive and present. If this could be known and accepted by large numbers of the sheep-like populace, attitudes would change, and physical defensive action would necessarily be forthcoming, but the near impossibility of convincing the herd of the truth is an enormous impediment to this knowledge becoming more universal.” – Gary D. Barnett

Who Are “the Jews”, According to the Bible? – “The Myth of a “Pure” Jewish Race. Today, many Christians, especially Evangelical Christians, believe in a pure Jewish race whose people are superior to other ethnic races. However, the historical facts prove otherwise. First, by the time Moses arrived on the scene and began the process of leading the Jews out of Egypt to become their own geo-political nation in the “Promised Land” as the nation of “Israel”, the Jews were already a mixed race of mostly Hebrews and Egyptians. The word “Jew” itself is taken from one of the 12 sons of Jacob, who was renamed to “Israel,” and that son was Judah. Judah became one of the “12 tribes of Israel”, and Jesus was born as a descendant of Judah. Therefore Abraham, the patriarch of the Jewish people, was not even Jewish himself, but a Hebrew.” – Brian Shilhavy

MAHA Fail: RFK Jr. Says Measles Is Spreading Because Not Enough Americans Received A Vaccine During Covid, Sides With Fauci – “This cheap opportunist strikes again!” – The WinePress

The Remarkable Secrets of Olive Oil – “For thousands of years, olive oil was valued as much as a medicine as a food, and modern research has largely confirmed that reputation. Most notably, in large randomized trials, adding extra virgin olive oil to a Mediterranean diet reduced heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and atrial fibrillation.” – A Midwestern Doctor

How Many Ministries of Truth Are There? – “Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: the UK is an Orwellian police state. What’s that? You have heard that one before? OK, how about this one: the UK is actually worse than Orwellian.” –  James Corbett

Somebody Turned Down Our Volume – “Twenty thousand new subscribers and almost nobody can see us anymore. The truth is we have TWENTY THOUSAND more free subscribers now than we did back then and more people than ever have raised their hands and asked to read us. So where did all those likes go? I’d love to tell you I know for sure but The Wise Wolf lives on Substack and Substack is a website I don’t own and can’t control. Every word I write sits on somebody else’s servers and runs through somebody else’s algorithm before it ever reaches your inbox or your feed. ” – The Wise Wolf 🐺The Wise Wolf⁠  – HAVE NOTICED THIS AS WELL N MY SUBSTACK AS WELL THE PAST FEW MONTHS. HMM, !!!!!!

How Did the West Destroy Tartaria? – “When Old Books Tell Us What the Narrative Doesn’t. When we open a modern atlas, curious mind, the world looks settled, its borders fixed, names agreed on, and our ancient certainties are in place, but open a map from three centuries ago, and a very different geography begins to emerge.” – Jordan Nuttall

NEWS

Looters of the World, Unite! – “The Republic burns as riots spread across Europe.. What began in France as a loosely organized student tantrum, where an entitled generation of loafers spit their pacifiers out of the oppressive confines of their UPPAbaby strollers, quickly morphed into a sweeping, multicultural fête, in which (mostly) left-wing agitators, lunatic Islamists, cosplaying communist radicals and other unlikely bedfellows gathered round to raze France’s fine cities to the ground. You know… kinda like the usual suspects do when their soccer teams lose. Or win. Or draw. Or don’t even play. Here they are, presumably rummaging for school supplies in Louis Vuitton…” – Joel Bowman

The US Empire Has Seceded To The Heritage Foundation Mafia – “IF the purpose espoused by the Heritage Foundation for Trump to spike an illegal War with Iran so as to disrupt countries across the globe – they have succeeded. Cost of Living protests have spread from France to Belgium, Italy and Portugal. While the France protests are a mixture with commentaries claiming the police are purposefully allowing the rampage, the point remains – Europeans and their respective governments are not even remotely on the same page.” – Helena Glass

What Is Happening In France Will Also Happen Here In The United States Too – Michael Snyder

Has France Fallen? Far-Left Rioters Torch Buildings, Loot Luxury Stores As Macron Loses Control – “France’s weeks-long social unrest appears to be intensifying this weekend, with footage circulating on X showing a clear escalation in violence by far-left radicals and a deterioration in public order. The sustained chaos is exposing the limits of President Emmanuel Macron’s rapid response and raising alarming questions about his government’s ability to contain the crisis.” – Tyler Durden

Democratic Socialism Demolished Europe. – “Decades of bloated government, entitlements, subsidies, and mass migration have destroyed Europe’s competitiveness and growth, all paid for with ever-rising taxes and more debt. They have also created enormous social discontent.” – Daniel Lacalle

Rioters loot stores, set fires in central Milan during cost-of-living protest – “The march against wars and rising living costs began peacefully. But masked protesters threw stones, paving blocks and other objects at riot police and set fire to barricades made from bar tables. Images of the aftermath showed a severely damaged carabinieri car.” – AP

The most terrifying image out of France (and it’s not what you think it is) – “Whether the protests are as huge as X makes them seem or as contained as the MSM implies, this one picture warns of the coming conquest. An elderly couple stripped of everything, right in the middle of the street, left half-naked. As if the pillaged Rolexes, Vuitton, Hermès, Dior, Sephora weren’t enough for resale. The image that should be a wake-up call for the entire West. But stripping ordinary people of their clothes…that’s not mob madness. That is, instead, a very calculated act by which those in power ritually humiliate those whom they intend to destroy.” – Andrea Widburg

Tens of thousands march in Lisbon over housing and living costs – “It coincides with protests in France against rising costs and declining public services, and smaller protests in Belgium. There are ⁠also mass protests in Albania, where protesters are demanding the prime minister’s resignation.” – Sergio Goncalves and Miguel Pereira

Army Chief Warns Britons Must Make SACRIFICES For COMING WAR – “Half of the population say they would refuse to fight for the country. Public replies under the army chief’s warning have been blunt, ranging from demands that borders be controlled first to outright refusals to fight for the current government.” – Steve Watson

Donald Trump Loses a Press Secretary and Takes a Shot at Zelensky – “From the Back Forty: Folks have a say about Zacharia’s first day on the job.” – Sarah Cowgill

California Should Not Get to Set Policy For All of the U.S. – “California has decided it should dictate how the rest of America packages everything from cereal and soap to industrial spare parts. Seventeen Republican attorneys general have filed suit to stop it. They are right. The rest of the country should say so—and reject California’s attempt to impose its policies on everyone else. California and a handful of like-minded states have a playbook: Pass a rule at home. Make compliance a condition of doing business. Watch national supply chains conform because it is cheaper to surrender than to maintain two systems. Then call the result “progress” and dare anyone to object. That is not federalism. It is the big dog sitting on the porch, growling at every other house on the street.” – Curtis Hill

Long-Term Treasury Yields Buffeted by Hot Inflation and Cracks in AI Mania – “The magic 5%-line for the 10-year Treasury yield seems to be the new floor, after being the ceiling it couldn’t break through for three years.” – Wolf Richter

Let The Morons Eat Cake – “You can’t save people who don’t want to be saved. Every day, millions of ordinary investors buy and sell shares in businesses they know almost nothing about, relying on the assumption that somebody, somewhere, has done the necessary homework. They assume that because a company is publicly traded, has an auditor, and is covered by major Wall Street institutions, there must be some reasonable assurance that the whole thing isn’t a flaming bag of dogshit. And of course, history tells us otherwise.” – Quoth the Raven

It’s A Tricky Market Right Now (VIDEO) with Lance Roberts – “As volatility has increased and capital races back & forth between growth and value sectors, many investors are finding it hard right now to make money in the market. Portfolio manager Lance Roberts thinks that may continue until the results of the midterm elections deliver certainty.” – Adam Taggart | Thoughtful Money®

Gold & Silver: Ugly Week, Bigger Opportunity? – “let’s look at the markets. Gold fell sharply earlier this week, dropping toward $4,080 an ounce on Wednesday before staging a rebound Thursday. Silver’s losses were considerably more severe. The white metal plunged more than 6% Wednesday, falling to around $55.50 an ounce, before recovering somewhat on Thursday. For investors who watched silver trade above $100 earlier this year, seeing it struggle to hold the upper $50s is a bitter pill to swallow. But that’s silver. When it moves, it rarely does so gently. And the same volatility that makes silver’s advances so spectacular can make its corrections downright painful. The immediate culprit behind this week’s selloff was another round of troubling inflation news.” – Money Metals

The Precious Metals Mania Is Still Ahead – “The naysayers say the precious metals bull market is over, but the lack of a true mania in early 2026 tells a very different story.. Since the precious metals correction began in January 2026, a growing number of investors and commentators have concluded that the January peak marked the final mania and top of the 2020s precious metals bull market, much like the peaks of 1980 and 2011. They believe the bull market is now officially over and that precious metals face at least a decade-long bear market. However, I have been one of the few voices adamantly arguing otherwise: ” – Jesse Colombo  – PARTIAL ARTICLE FROM JESSE, BUT YOU GET THE IDEA!!!

The Biggest Winners and Losers From the Petrodollar’s Decline – “The biggest winner should come as no surprise. Gold. China and the major Middle Eastern oil producers have accumulated gold for years.

There are sacks of feed in the shed and enough stored supplies to keep the household going.Order Spring Water Now move them. Move the firewood through wet snow. Bring water uphill from the collection point. Shift a battery across the property. Get a sack of grain from the storage building to the house without exhausting yourself before the day’s work has properly started.” – denob

How Google Maps Became a Weapon for Looters – “The satellite photo shows what you’ve got, but Street View shows how well you guard it. From the curb, a stranger can count your cameras and check whether the side gate has a lock on it. He can also see if there’s a doghouse in the yard, and whether the back of the house faces woods or a busy road.” – Jack  – GOOD ARTICLE ON WHAT PRECAUTIONS TO TAKE!!!!!!

Revelation 18:17-18    For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,  And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!
