THE BIG PICTURE

Dark days of winter – “If you are anxious and worried or in despair do not read this piece. I do not wish to add to the burden however some things need saying. Right or wrong I am saying it. In the UK the powers that be are now outwardly speaking about a possible draft of citizens to go to war. Why would we fight their foreign wars while leaders are busily dismantling all the reasons people might actually go to war for? Why would we fight for freedom for democracy in another country when leaders are unraveling our democracy at home? Why would we fight for western values of freedom when leaders are taking it away from us, particularly freedom of speech? Why would we even fight for our homeland when we hardly recognize it anymore? Fight your own wars. The trust is broken.You will be hard-pressed to find people to willingly fight your wars now for your insular vision of the future. The leaders of this world need to leave the people alone. You’ve done nothing but damage. You have given tokens for titanic demands and hardships. And I fear, if anarchy and chaos was what you were ultimately looking for in this divisiveness, no doubt you will get it.” – Sylvia Shawcross  – GREAT READ FROM SYLVIA, ONE OF HER BEST!!!!!!

Michelle, Ma Belle – “As Donald Trump consolidates his election mojo — defying the forces arrayed to destroy him — and more of the country turns against the creepy apparition in the White House purportedly running against him, you hear evermore chatter that a panicked Democratic Party will insert Michelle Obama in a last-minute convention switcheroo next August. The explications I hear in the chat media all sound lame one way or another. For starters, how pathetically weak is the party that such a walking fiasco as “Joe Biden” is allowed to even pretend that he can run this race? Well, all right, considering the party has really got no one else. Except for one thing: none of the people chattering about this have mentioned that the Michelle plan actually represents a fourth term for Barack Obama. I mean. . . really . . . do you suppose that Barack will spend the next four years upstairs in the White House “residence” with an apron on, baking red velvet cakes and sweet potato pies while Michelle presides in the Situation Room, directing drone strikes against various people of the Koran? In the immortal words of Homey D. Clown: “I don’t think so!”” – James Howard Kunstler

World War III Imminent? – “The wisest among us see the definite signs, the historical traps being set, and other signs. Lets walk it through, and see if the US and the EU has the heft and the hubris to get one started. In terms of hubris, the US neocons and the current administration are well supplied. ” – Karen Kwiatkowski

No One Needs Government: All Government and Rule Are Corrupt and Evil! – “Ah government, that institution invented for the sole purpose of solidifying a monopoly of force over people, so as to be able to rule over all of society with a violent iron hand. This bastardized, immoral, and vile practice now consumes this country and the world, and it has been allowed to happen with little resistance. When rule has taken hold, and is tyrannical, one can condemn the ruling class, but when that tyranny is perpetual, blame rests with the masses of people who have voluntarily accepted and embraced their own servitude. ” – Gary D. Barnett

RESTORATION THROUGH CATASTROPHE,- “There is no voting ourselves out of this. You ultimately reap what you sow and we will eventually sit down to a banquet of consequences. I don’t know when, but I sense it won’t be long. Batten down the hatches.” – Jim Quinn

Texas Rebellion? – “The issues in Texas have much greater consequence than a mere state’s rights issue. It is a question of national legitimacy. Is the Constitution the legal and rightful expression of American government or is America now simply a mass of lawless land? Is the president a dictator who can ignore the laws passed by congress, invite thousands of terrorists and foreign armies in without consequence, or is he bound by the laws as much as the states and the people? When will the people punish him for this lawlessness? The Constitution, for all of its flaws, shields the people from the government and serves as a limitation on the powers of the government.” – T.L. Davis

Will the resistance in Texas prevail? – “25 states and a significant majority of the American people support the Texas Guard’s efforts to secure the border.” – Jordan Schachtel

Joe Biden Gives Governor Greg Abbott A 24 Hour Ultimatum As The Border Standoff Intensifies – “Are we headed for a major constitutional crisis? Texas Governor Greg Abbott is not backing down, and a whole bunch of other red states have publicly announced that they support what he is doing. ” – Michael Snyder

Terrorists Mock America While Crossing the Border – “The argument that people crossing the US border, illegally, are simply dreamers searching for a better life is null and void. They can abide by US law and go through the immigration process, a process that was standard until Biden took office. There is an increasing number of KNOWN TERRORISTS entering the US, but Washington wants you to believe it is not a threat to national security. A video has been circulating of a migrant walking across the border, taunting reporters with vague threats of terrorism. ” – Martin Armstrong  – LINKED THE VIDEO ON TUESDAY AS WELL!!!

Border surge spreads west, video shows migrants rolling into La Jolla’s Windansea Beach – “Like, cowabunga, hombres. You’ve got to hand it to Texas’s Gov. Greg Abbott: When he protects his state’s border, the cartel human smuggling operators take their migrant landing points elsewhere, because not every state protects its borders like he does.” – Monica Showalter

Kari Lake Just Blew Up The Arizona GOP  “A GOP state chairman admitted that if he exposed the corruption of GOP members “back East” he would likely be murdered by car bomb” – Emerald Robinson

Funding Ukraine to Kill Russians – “It’s why I’m proud to be an American. “Meanwhile, Ukraine is running out of ammunition.” And I guess it’s the job of all patriotic and loyal Americans to continue funding war in a former Soviet republic. Why? Because if we Americans don’t enable the killing of Russians in Ukraine, Vladimir Putin will allegedly be emboldened to attack NATO, invade Europe, and kill U.S. troops. Helping to sustain a viciously stalemated war in Ukraine by sending more ammunition should make me proud to be an American, so I’m told. Why am I not proud of this?” – Bill Astore  – CAN’T GET MUCH BETTER SARCASM THAN THIS!!!

UN Budgets Millions for U.S.-Bound Migrants in 2024 – “Public docs show cash handouts to help feed, transport, and house people headed for the U.S. border. Early on in America’s historic border crisis, now entering its fourth record-smashing year, some Republican lawmakers named a significant enabling culprit other than the usual Mexican cartel smugglers. They named the U.S. taxpayer-funded United Nations as essentially a co-smuggler after seeing my reports that the UN was handing out debit cards and cash vouchers to aspiring illegal border crossers on their way north.” – Todd Bensman

All Wars are Orchestrated by the Satanic Jewish Bankers – “The current war in the Middle East is currently in the middle of its fourth month, and it is now much more obvious that this is a planned war, and that probably every single State actor is following a plan that was put into action last year on October 7th. The reason the killing continues, of course, is because all of these countries still receive $BILLIONS from the Zionist U.S., and the ones who control the finances from the West are the Satanic Jewish bankers, led by the two most powerful families in the West, the Rockefellers of the U.S. and the Rothschilds of the UK and France, and all those who do business with them and control most of the world’s financial system. This financial system is on the brink of collapse, and the primary commodity that the world’s richest people use to control the world in modern times, is petroleum and all of its byproducts.” – Brian Shilhavy

US Government Debt & Spending Run By Lawyers; SCRAPE – “Media Pundits are calling for an audit of the Federal Government. As a former CPA, I can assure you that at this point, such a brainstorm is laughable. By the time an audit was finished in 2035 It would have no value. The government isn’t even sure how many agencies and subagencies it operates and funds – much less how much is spent. The Pentagon lost $3 trillion before 9-11. USAID gives away money like Skittles. And the flow of government NGO funding is thru a maize of offshore entities, foreign entities, and more anonymous middlemen than a New York Times article! Yet somehow, our esteemed liberal loonies have claimed to track down $5.6 million that was paid to Trump hotels for conventions, parties, and vacations that is deemed ‘foreign interference’’. The deflection from Joe and Hunter Biden’s escapades and their mélange of friends, family and associate Big Guy partnerships – is lame duck. None of which will make it to a DOJ court before the 2024 election.” – Helena Glass

When the Truth Lies Dead and Buried – Resurrect Logic – “If you read Western mainstream propaganda these days, you’ll find the truth hidden so deep no archaeologist could unearth it. A case in point is a buried lead in a story from the New York Post suggesting Russia has secret plans to hit NATO hard in the coming months. According to the Post’s Chris Nesi, leaked secret documents released by German newspaper BILD tell of Europe preparing for Vladimir Putin to expand his military operation in Ukraine and to attack NATO ally countries next year. If readers take the headline and a keen graphic illustrating Putin’s alleged diabolical plan, you’d be in the right stocking up those bomb shelters in Wisconsin and Luxembourg. Fortunately, Nesi’s story is entirely misleading.” – Phil Butler

And given the Fed will likely move to taper the rate of QT over the next few months, it will be near impossible to ever shrink its balance sheet to where it stood in January 2020.” – MN Gordon

In the context of an attack, “sheltering in” entails having sufficient food, water, and supplies to avoid community gatherings and grocery stores.

FDA Continues Fight for Supplement “Hit List” – “This time, the agency is trying to use the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to do its dirty work. We can’t let them get away with it. A GAO report on 12 prenatal vitamins is being used as a justification for more supplement restrictions. The GAO’s findings hardly support the case for more supplement regulations; for example, the report looked at less than 2 percent of the prenatal vitamins on the market. This is all about the FDA getting what it has been trying to achieve for years now: the passage of “mandatory product listing” or “mandatory filing” for supplements that sounds innocuous but is a prelude to much wider supplement restrictions.” – ANH-USA

The illegals are given their dedicated security lines at airports while citizens have to go through long lines, and are patted down and molested by regime foot soldiers in purple gloves with sub-90 IQs. Soon the illegals with slightly lower IQs, capable of speaking rudimentary English will be able to work as Police Officers in some states and cities, policing the behavior of the legal citizens who pay their salaries.” – The Good Citizen – THE GOOD CITIZEN NAILS IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cultural Replacement: Why The Immigration Crisis Is Being Deliberately Engineered – “There is absolutely no doubt – Elements of our own government are deliberately encouraging the acceleration of illegal immigration across the southern border and they are actively sabotaging any attempts to stop the madness. There are two questions we need to ask: Why are they doing this? And, what can be done to stop them? The majority of nations on the planet today have strict immigration rules, yet, America and the EU are the only regions attacked for wanting to limit the flow of illegals. Why is that?

They can’t be bothered, Friends, in case you’re not aware, our nation’s gates have already fallen. Our enemies are already here, and they’re ravaging our land like locusts. It didn’t have to be this way, but we got the so-called “leadership” we deserved, after denying God decade after decade as we became ever more callous and rebellious toward our God, our Savior.

Government by Experts – “I have often thought that after Abraham Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson was our worst president. By worst is meant least faithful to the Constitution and most destructive of personal liberty. His governmental sins were many — World War I, the Espionage Act that punishes speech, the federal income tax, the popular election of U.S. Senators, the Federal Reserve and his government by experts; the latter known today as the administrative state. This last insidious structure is not in any branch of constitutional government. It writes rules, interprets them, enforces them and punishes its victims. According to the late Justice Antonin Scalia, this is an unconstitutional delegation of Congress’ legislative powers to entities within the government who are not answerable to the voters. Administrative agency heads are appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate. But the folks who write the rules are permanent bureaucrats who do not change, no matter who is in the White House.” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

For some folks out there, they don’t even need a backyard to keep a successful garden going. The beauty of today’s gardening options is that they cater to a wide range of individuals.

Elite overproduction has run its usual course, and that overproduced elite has had the wealth pump roaring at full capacity for over 50 years. They’ve sucked out the marrow of the economy, and they intend to continue sucking until the host dies. Whether in America, or Canada, or Britain, or Ireland, or France, or Holland, or in Germany, they don’t bother hiding their contempt for the populations they rule. They make no secret of their intentions. They offer only dispossession, poverty, immiseration, and ignorance, and they are open about this. They laugh about it.

If you read the bodies of the articles they even say it only applies to some vegetables in some places and it all depends on how the “infrastructure” is put together. The details aren’t the point.

Conspiracy Theorists Were Right About Climate Lockdowns – “Yesterday, our unfortunate Governor of New York, Kathy Hochul, issued a TRAVEL BAN for an entire county. You read that correctly. No, not a travel advisory, but a full on travel ban! Meaning, New Yorkers in Erie County are forbidden from going anywhere. What’s another name for that? Well, if you live in a rural or very suburban area (which most of New York State is), where driving on a road is the way you get from point A to point B, then I would say a synonym would be “lockdown.” And what was Dictator Hochul’s, I mean Governor Hochul’s, reason for this lockdown of close to one million New Yorkers that live in Erie County? Wait for it. Ready? It was going to SNOW! For anyone who does not live in New York, or who has never been to Western New York in the winter, that area of our state gets a lot of snow. Often.

Watchlisted: You’re Probably Already on a Government Extremism List – “According to the FBI, you may be an anti-government extremist if you’ve: a) purchased a Bible or other religious materials, b) used terms like “MAGA” and “Trump,” c) shopped at Dick’s Sporting Goods, Cabela’s, or Bass Pro Shops, d) purchased tickets to travel by bus, cars, or plane, e) all of the above. In fact, if you selected any of those options in recent years, you’re probably already on a government watchlist. That’s how broadly the government’s net is being cast in its pursuit of domestic extremists. We’re all fair game now, easy targets for inclusion on some FBI watch list or another.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

Can America survive its traitors? – “In the same week that the Supreme Court decides to prevent states from protecting their citizens from drugs & violence, we find out three former presidents are funding flights of illegals into the US” – Leo Hohmann

The United States Has No Borders – “I don’t know if Americans have any comprehension of what is happening to their country. I think not. I think most Americans are lost in their insouciance and in their comfortable myths about the greatness and freedom of their country. Flag waving patriots who can believe no evil of their country are the easiest to tyrannize. A plethora of July 4ths and Memorial Days have done the job. Americans are upset about foreign borders such as Ukraine’s and Israel’s, but even those few who try can do nothing about America’s own totally undefended borders. Texas tried to do something, but the US Supreme Court just ruled that Texas cannot protect its borders or the borders of the United States” – Paul Craig Roberts

THE FDR Equation Gave US Zionist Communist Control – “All the globalist institutions were created between 1944 – 1948. The same people created ALL of these institutions with one purpose – Global Control. The World Bank is run by 29 Vice Presidents and 25 Executive Directors and overseen by The World Bank Group which established the IMF. It was created at the behest of Henry Morgenthau jr., a German Jew who never graduated from college but did find favor with Eleanor Roosevelt and thus was inducted into the FDR New Deal agenda. The UN was formed in 1945 and created the World Health Organization. The UN was established to end ALL future wars. It’s predecessor, The League of Nations, proved worthless so FDR proposed a new and improved League – the United Nations. The UN Charter was drafted by FDR, Churchill and Stalin… The Charter was signed by the US, UK, Soviet Russia (Bolsheviks) and China. Their mission was to ‘fight the Axis Powers of Japan, Germany and Italy’.” – Helena Glass

Biden’s Foreign Policy; the Biden Doctrine – “Joe Biden ordered airstrikes on Iraq, against Iranian-backed militants, in retaliation for recent attacks by those militants that severely injured three American soldiers. Joe didn’t consult with Congress or anyone else before ordering the strikes, and no declaration of war exists of course. Yet no one believes the militias, following their spanking, will disappear or stop harming Americans. That sums up the Biden Foreign Policy, call it a doctrine if you’d like: a series of geopolitically unsuccessful, inconsequential, mostly reactive unilateral actions, with no end game. Underlying it all is the sense that no one is particularly frightened, respectful or wary of American power anymore. Let’s see how this worked on a global scale over the last three bloody years.” – Peter Van Buren

What’s the point of Nikki Haley? – “The New Hampshire primary has exposed the decay of the old Republican establishment. Last night, by winning the New Hampshire primary, Donald Trump took another big step towards becoming the Republican nominee for president. And with that, the US has moved closer to the Trump-Biden rematch that most Americans are dreading. In a way, the New Hampshire primary was a referendum on Trump, rather than a contest between Trump and Haley.” – Sean Collins

The White House and Biden know this and he has even publicly admitted so much. The delusion in the White House is that ‘doing something’, like bombing random targets In Yemen, will change things continues. This question is still unanswered:  A senior administration official laid it out as follows. regional countries and other nations with an interest in open sea lanes — China, for example — will demand an end to the shipping crisis that has inflated prices and imperiled lives.

17 Unexpected Ways to Save Money on the Homestead – Catherine Winter  – SOME GOOD IDEAS HERE!!!!

Are You Mentally Fit To Survive Brain Fog? – “Every passing day brings with it the potential for adversity, manifesting in various forms that impact our lives. Financial setbacks, emotional upheavals, or physical challenges—all are facets of the disasters that constantly loom over us. “Some calamities may capture public attention, prompting a fleeting sense of relief that it’s befallen others and not us, at least not yet. However, considering the inevitability suggested by the saying, “It’s not if but when,” there might come a day when we confront a disaster of monumental proportions that rattles the very core of our existence. – David Andrew Brown

Survival Uses of Black Walnuts – “Very few people realize that the Black Walnut has dozens of survival uses.’ – Creek Stewart

Transportation After the SHTF – “One of the subjects that seem to get overlooked in the prepping community is that of transportation. Oh, we’re great at talking about our bug out vehicles; but that’s not what I’m talking about. A bug out vehicle has one purpose and one purpose only; that’s to get us from our home, to our survival retreat. After that, we probably won’t be able to get gasoline for it, so it will probably serve as nothing more than storage. But that’s if we’re bugging out. What if we’re bugging in? There are a lot of post-disaster activities that we talk about in the prepping community, like hunting, fishing and cutting firewood, which will require transportation to get there and back again. ” – Bill White

The Implications of DEFUSE – “If the virus came from a lab, then what? For those still unaware, back in 2018, EcoHealth Alliance made a grant proposal to DARPA for their PREEMPT program, named DEFUSE. This has been covered extensively both by DRASTIC Research, who initially received and analyzed the leaked documents, and Project Veritas, who also received these documents and provided their own take on the matter. To summarize, DARPA had a program called PREEMPT, short for PREventing EMerging Pathogenic Threats, with the stated goal of addressing zoonotic viruses and preventing their spillover to humans (specifically, to US troops deployed overseas) by tackling them directly in animal populations.” – Spartacus  – GOOD ARTICLE.

John Kerry slaps the ‘disinformation’ label on the real inconvenient truths of EVs – “John Kerry consistently shows how dangerous and uncaring he, and all the other people pushing the radical green agenda to move the world backwards, really are. “Kerry recently said he really doesn’t care if people don’t want to switch out their gas-powered vehicles for electric ones, because they will be forced to do it anyway. Isn’t that what dictators do? He doesn’t care about the cost burden on the poor and middle classes; we will just have to suffer. I will make a deal with Kerry. If he will give up all his mansions, his yacht, his jet, his gas-powered vehicles, and all the other products derived from crude oil that he uses, including rubber tires, I will give up my three gas-powered cars, my gas furnace, my gas water heaters, my gas grill, my gas lawn mower, and my gas-powered snow blower that I still need to use here in Illinois, despite all the warnings of snowless winters.

No. Are they gonna continue? Yes.” The exchange perfectly defines the Biden Administration’s foreign policy: “Is our policy working? No. But keep it up, man!” What is that old saying about the definition of insanity? At least six rounds of US airstrikes have failed to intimidate the Houthis in Yemen, who have – contrary to the mainstream media – not announced a blockade of the Red Sea but merely interdiction of ships going to and from Israeli ports in response to Israel’s ongoing slaughter in Gaza. To date, the Houthis have neither killed anyone nor have they sunk a single tanker. Their intent seems to be to raise the cost of shipping in the region, thus far with great success. – Daniel McAdams

Covid Having Failed to do the Job, Bill Gates with WHO in His Pocket Is Making a Second Run at Culling the Population – “WHO is a political and propaganda organization, not a health organization. Notice that WHO is predicting in advance of its appearance a new 20 times more deadly virus. So WHO is claiming a crystal ball that reveals the future. Why does it only reveal future viruses? Notice that WHO knows in advance that the unknown and hypothetical virus is very deadly. Notice that none of these things can possibly be known before they happen. There is an effort long underway to take all control over health decisions out of the hands of doctors and patients. The WHO “treaty” is likely designed by Bill Gates, Fauci, and Big Pharma. It is an instrument of tyranny. It will be used to prevent effective treatment against whatever pathogen is next released. Notice that WHO’s prediction is an indication that another released virus will soon be on its way to us. Notice that these predictions are coming from the Bill Gates/WEF crowd that is intent on reducing the world population by 7.5 billion lives, effectively a genocide of the human race.” -Paul Craig Roberts

When ‘Psychopathic’ is No Exaggeration – “Moreover, this individual – whom I shall not honour with the term ‘person’ – and his colleagues at the World Economic Forum do not even deign to hide their reprehensible, scurrilous intentions pertaining to the rest of the world’s population – those who are not of the billionaire class of technocrats who are apparently working towards a one-world, totalitarian neo-feudal state.

Minds To Think – “The eyes see what the heart wants to see, but the mind, if trained to think, sees the truth. Throughout the pandemic the division was made between those who have minds to think and those who have minds to receive.

They don’t yet get the urgency. They see the pandemic for the fraud that it was, for how it destroyed whole swaths of American cultural freedoms, but still they complied. They accepted, they were too timid to just tell people no.

The Pipe-bomb Caper – “Kudos to Darren J. Beattie of Revolver News and Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) for doing the FBI’s work for the FBI, smoking out the role of law enforcement (including the FBI) in but one module of the J6 operation that turned a peaceful mass assembly of disgruntled voters into a riot in order to color it as an “insurrection” and so destroy opposition to the falsely-elected, tyrannically corrupt, and epically deranged regime fronted by the ghost-in-the-White House, “Joe Biden.” Mr. Massie arranged to extract previously unseen video from the Capitol Police vaults showing the exceedingly strange behavior of various law-men in the minutes after one of their number reported a pipe-bomb beside a park bench, The video is time-stamped 17 hours before the police find the bomb around one o’clock the next day. Strangely, the timer fixed to the outside of the bomb turns out to be a one-hour egg-timer. . . as I said, planted seventeen hours before. How’s that supposed to work? Thus, the “insurrection,” another long-running blob hoax that is now wobbling and unravelling, like RussiaGate and UkraineGate before it.” – James Howard Kunstler

Yes, really. Biden’s handlers put out a post on X which essentially consists of Nikki Haley saying Trump is past it, and often says ‘Obama’ when he means ‘Biden’.

He laid the situation out perfectly on the House floor prior to the vote. But at the end of the day, 107 House Republicans collaborated with 207 Democrats to dodge even a minuscule 1% cut in spending. The hypocritical Republicans likely mouthed some commitment to fiscal responsibility and limited government to voters during their last campaign.

My spouse actively participates in gardening because there’s an undeniable difference in the taste of freshly harvested, sun-ripened produce. Those with a focus on health grow gardens to enhance the nutritional quality of their produce, ensuring they harvest at the peak of ripeness. These advantages, however, are fleeting and only endure for a few months unless you take steps to preserve your harvest. The question then arises: how does the process of preserving affect the nutritional value of the food?” – Rhonda Owen

Mystic Putanny — plucked from an obscure hunter-gatherer tribe in the Amazon, maybe, but just as plausibly from a Women’s and Gender Studies department at the local university — kicks things off with a jibber-jabber incantation that no one, perhaps including her, understands the meaning of.

There Is No Such Thing as ‘Representative’ Government: There Has Never Been! – “Ah yes, here we are in another major ‘election’ year, where it seems at this point, your choices (not mine of course) will likely be the same as they have been the past 8 years. A brain-dead, controlled, criminal, and evil leftist stooge called Biden, or a war-mongering, narcissistic, controlled, and arrogant lying stooge called Trump. This sounds like a set-up, and it is, but do you really think it matters one iota from one year to the next, one decade to the next, or in reality, has it ever mattered at all which piece of scum is selected? Of course it does not matter, because the scourge of mankind, for particularly the masses, other than their own stupidity, is the allowance of a government of any kind to rule over them.” – Gary D.

Over the weekend, while speaking to reporters, Biden mocked a quote from Thomas Jefferson: “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. The quote suggests that Jefferson believes the American people should have the right to rebel against a tyrannical government. Biden said that if U.S. citizens really wanted to fight the government, they would need F-16 fighter jets. This is not the first time Biden has threatened Americans with violence who refuse to follow a dictatorship. In June 2023, the president berated Second Amendment supporters, saying once again that they would need F-16 fighter jets in order to take on the American government.” – Sarah Arnold

It was the 13th straight year of net central bank gold purchases.

VERSES FOR THE DAY

Psalm 15:1-2    Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?  He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

Ridin’ on the City of New Orleans Illinois Central Monday morning rail
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail
All along the southbound odyssey the train pulls out of Kankakee
And rolls along past houses farms and fields
Passing trains that have no name and freight yards full of old black men
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles

Good morning, America. How are you?
Say, don’t you know me? I’m your native son
I’m the train they call the City of New Orleans
And I’ll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done

Dealin’ cards with the old men in the club car
Penny a point, ain’t no one keepin’ score
Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
And feel the wheels rumbling ‘neath the floor
And the sons of Pullman porters and the sons of engineers
Ride their fathers’ magic carpet made of steel
Mothers with their babes asleep rockin’ to the gentle beat
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel

Good morning, America. How are you?
Say, don’t you know me? I’m your native son
I’m the train they call the City of New Orleans
And I’ll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done

Night time on the City of New Orleans changing cars in Memphis Tennessee
Halfway home we’ll be there by morning
Through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea
And all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream
And the steel rails still ain’t heard the news
The conductor sings his songs again the passengers will please refrain
This train has got the disappearing railroad blues

Good morning, America. How are you?
Say, don’t you know me? I’m your native son
I’m the train they call the City of New Orleans
I’ll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done

(City Of New Orleans by Steve Goodman )

Skeptical observers for several years have warned that if biometric surveillance evolves unchecked, life in even modestly populated areas everywhere in the United States will be a real-time 360-degree searchable record.

Putin gives an annual marathon press conference taking questions from journalists and the public on all and sundry national and international issues.

Over four hours, he can hold the audience’s interest with cogent rational arguments, making his points with comprehensive facts and figures. Putin’s approval rating among the Russian public is riding high consistently in what can be deduced as genuine respect for his leadership.” – Finian Cunningham

Does it not seem to radiate eons of aggregate wisdom, maternal kindness, bountiful nurture, caring, and healing, and even a hint of fun in the nursury. . . the rectified essence of Teutonic beauty, fertility, vitality, and virtue. . . the loving smile of the life-giver caressing humanity like a spring zephyr wafting through the piney Schwarzwald on a June morning? That is exactly why Ursula von der Leyen was (s)elected President of the European Commission, and why she was sent out to front the World Economic Forum (WEF) this week in her keynote speech to the assembled global grandees of Davos in the dead chill of January. It’s one thing when a cadaverous goblin such as Yuval Noah Harari tells you to eat bugs, and quite another thing when Oma Ursula tells you Keine Sorge, Kinder. Alles ist gut. Ursula did offer us children-of-the-world one wee note of caution, though, as every good “grammy” might give to the global kindergarten: watch out for misinformation and disinformation on the internet!

Covid Smoking Gun – “SARS-CoV-2 Blueprint. This is the gun. With the fingerprints. Literally. For those that don’t know, DEFUSE was the application to the American defence organisation DARPA, made by EcoHealth Alliance, headed by Peter Daszak. Bruttel explains that DEFUSE was not funded but researchers sometime start projects before the funding is approved and very similar research projects at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) were funded by US and Chinese institutions. Although this DEFUSE application was turned down, it is very feasible that funding for it was obtained through other means or merged with other projects. Apparently something has happened, and Bruttel has shown something that was not yet intended to be published. Emily Kopp’s account from the USRightToKnow has strangely disappeared. We’ll see how this turns out. But this is ‘pretty much case closed’.” Bruttel concludes that SARS2 was assembled from 6 fragments using various enzymes. BsmBI for the main body of the virus and BsaI for furin cleavage site and receptor binding domain. Exactly how EcoAlliance planned it in the DEFUSE document.” – The Naked Emperor

You’re Going To Get Dirty – “The trouble I find with conservatives in general and America First people is their demand that everything be pure and sparkling with virtue. This tendency is what allowed the feds and Democrats to manipulate the January 6th protest into a riot and subsequently into an insurrection. I noticed on the very day of the event, listening on the radio (probably a federal charge under this DOJ) that the reporting went from: “It’s amazing how many people came out to support Donald Trump and protest the obviously crooked 2020 election” to “It’s shameful for these protesters to violate the sanctified halls of congress” in fifteen minutes, by the same broadcaster. That’s a lack of situational awareness and a desire for liberal acceptance. If it had been a Democrat-backed event, it would have been justified by the anguish felt by the people for the demise of democracy and the failure of the election system. We have already allowed them to back nationalism and populism into a corner, framing it solely on Trump and his behavior and approval, but it isn’t just Trump.” – T.L. Davis

U.S. Heading to Become a Totalitarian Dictatorship -Eric Zuesse

Preparing For The Collapse Of Society – “Are you convinced that we are headed for societal collapse? If so, you are definitely not alone. Here in 2024, we will be facing the most chaotic election season in our entire history, multiple wars are erupting all over the planet, economic problems are rapidly growing, destructive natural disasters are becoming more frequent, global authorities are warning us to brace ourselves for the next pandemic, and our cities are being absolutely overwhelmed by endless waves of new migrants. The stage is set for a societal implosion of epic proportions, and many Americans are feverishly preparing for a coming collapse that they believe is inevitable.” – Michael Snyder

The Catalyst for the Next US Civil War? – “The far-left told migrants to come to America where the American dream would await them. The American Dream of the 1950s is DEAD. Even hardworking Americans can no longer obtain the lifestyle that was once promised and provided to legal immigrants. These migrants today are unable to work and expect the taxpaying citizens of this nation to pay for their new lives. The future of our nation depends on stopping the deliberate invasion of America.” – Martin Armstrong

Argentina’s Milei rips into the ‘bloody abortion agenda’ to shocked crowd at Davos – “It probably wasn’t a surprise to the pampered swells and princelings of the World Economic Forum at Davos that Argentina’s libertarian president, Javier Milei, would defend free markets and condemn socialism. He did it in spades, with his battle cry, “Long Live F***** Freedom.” What wasn’t on their bingo cards, however, was that he also blasted abortion and population control, with a passion not seen since … well, ever.” – Monica Showalter

Biden Has ‘Delivered For The American People’ All Right, And They Want A Refund – “Rep. James Clyburn, who is a co-chairman of Joe Biden’s reelection campaign, recently tried to explain the president’s predicament by saying that he’s “delivered for the American people in such a way that nobody seems to grasp.” As campaign slogans go, that’s not exactly “Morning in America.” But the truth is that everybody grasps what Biden has delivered. It’s what he’s delivered that they don’t like.” – I & I Editorial Board

He has full access to required secure communications capabilities.” – U.S. DepartmentofDefense  – NO PICTURES OR NEWS CAMERAS OF HIS RELEASE, WONDER WHY THAT IS. SUPPOSEDLY KILLED IN UKRAINE.

The Ukraine Charade, Revisited – “Selected players scattered around the Beltway silos of power, diligently working as messengers for the people who really run the show in the Hegemon, have concluded that a no holds barred confrontation with Russia would lead to the collapse of all of NATO; undo decades of US iron grip on Europe; and ultimately cause the Empire’s downfall. Playing brinkmanship games sooner or later would meet the indestructible red lines inbuilt in the unmovable Russian object. US elites are smarter than that. They may excel on calculated risk. But when the stakes are this high, they know when to hedge and when to fold. The “loss” of Ukraine – now a graphic imperative – is not worth risking the loss of the whole Hegemonic ride. That would be too much for the Empire to lose.” – Pepe Escobar

Why Did Saudi Arabia Clarify That It Hasn’t Yet Accepted BRICS Membership? – “It can plausibly be hypothesized that Saudi Arabia’s unexpected decision to delay formal membership in BRICS is due to Western perceptions about this association, Iran’s involvement in the Red Sea Crisis, and Israeli-US pressure.” – Andrew Korybko

The Government Is Making the Economy Appear Better than It Is – “As the 2024 general election gets closer, Democrats and proestablishment pundits are growing frustrated with the American public for not feeling as good about the economy as the so-called experts say they should. The elitism of this view aside, it is true that traditional economic indicators are pretty good and that, at the same time, people aren’t feeling good about the economy. Center-left economists have been locked in a debate over whether people are lying to pollsters about experiencing hardship in what is actually an excellent economy or are struggling due to mysterious noneconomic factors. Others, like Paul Krugman, have decided to blame Donald Trump and his supporters” – Connor O’Keeffe

World Economic Forum: Government is Obsolete – “We are paying government nearly $5 trillion every year while Stakeholders make all the decisions and run the roost. The system is broken.

Accosted by reporters he had nothing to say. Mr. Greenpants is one of the lesser Gods of Mount Davos, but still a God. One’s status as lesser or greater is simply determined by how much money you have as we know. The question I always had about Mr. Gore is why didn’t he change his name? But now we know don’t we? Al Gore is an algorithm. The Al-Gore-ithm. All of this nonsense about “abu-Jaʽfar Mohammed ibn-Mūsa al-Khuwārizmi” is ancient history. The Almighty Algorithm has been redefined. Al Gore is an algorithm and his name foreshadowed our demise. We are now all at the mercy of Al Gore, even with his lesser God status. That’s why the word is so popular now.

Or worse, if someone has the nerve to call me a spoon, will the government step in to punish that “bigot” for mis-utensiling me? Of course not. Then why should a man in makeup and a dress be given extra legal rights to sue anyone who sees through his delusions?

There was no vision of the future. 1913 was also the year that the Federal Reserve, with its policy of depression, inflation, recession, and inflation, was established and unleashed on America, and it was also the year that World War I and its inflation was about to be launched by the French, Russian, and British Governments.

Taking Money Back (Part I) – “Money is a crucial command post of any economy, and therefore of any society. Society rests upon a network of voluntary exchanges, also known as the “free-market economy”; these exchanges imply a division of labor in society, in which producers of eggs, nails, horses, lumber, and immaterial services such as teaching, medical care, and concerts, exchange their goods for the goods of others. At each step of the way, every participant in exchange benefits immeasurably, for if everyone were forced to be self-sufficient, those few who managed to survive would be reduced to a pitiful standard of living. Direct exchange of goods and services, also known as “barter,” is hopelessly unproductive beyond the most primitive level, and indeed every “primitive” tribe soon found its way to the discovery of the tremendous benefits of arriving, on the market, at one particularly marketable commodity, one in general demand, to use as a “medium” of “indirect exchange.” If a particular commodity is in widespread use as a medium in a society, then that general medium of exchange is called “money.”” -Murray N.

A Primer For American Patriots And Preppers Facing An Uncertain Future – “The average patriot (or prepper) is usually a middle class conservative or libertarian with a tendency towards independent thinking and some experience with economic struggle in their past. Most of us have made something of ourselves from very little, or, we had parents that made something of themselves from very little and we watched as children while they climbed their way up the ladder through hard work and merit. Our philosphy is based on experience and a willingness to look beyond the veil. Most of the western public is bombarded with endless messaging about how stable and safe and “prosperous” our society is. We are constantly slapped in the face with propaganda telling us that patriots are not only crazy, but also dangerous. We are the bumbling bad guys in every film and TV show. We’re the “extremists” that refuse to accept that the system works, and if we would just stop trying to be independent from the system, we will find safety and happiness.

To the degree US elites accomplish this, without constitutional amendments, that would be illegal, This is all-out war that we can’t win unless 15/20% of Americans stand-up and say no. If elites pass laws criminalizing free speech/guns/privacy, and ‘fast-track’ AI algorithms to identify, cancel, and bring charges against our ‘right to our rights’—2024 will be a tough bet. Elite attempts to take our rights need argued against in constitutional terms. We meet what they contend, head on under the law, because, if we react, saying/writing things that can get interpreted as acts of violence, or worse, terrorism, we are at peril.

IF Trump takes office, the cartels will no longer pretend everything is hunky-dory, inflation will be pegged at its real rate, unemployment will suddenly include every illegal, and wars will be spiked.
