THE BIG PICTURE NEWS

Truth And Consequences – “Even if NBC, CBS, CNN, The New York Times, The WashPo, and the rest of the Big News Media mafia ignore the Twitter Files story, the revolution at Twitter is going to shake their windows and rattle their walls. There will be free debate in 2023 on this social media platform. We’ll have to see how long this lasts before the Intel Community tries to shut Twitter down, ramp up a campaign to defame it, or blow it up as a viable business. Or make a move to, shall we say, neutralize the person behind the revolution there. You can’t overstate what an advantage the insidious takeover of social media gave to forces seeking to wreck the country, though the effects have not been adequately explored yet. The other players involved have plenty to answer for, too. Rochelle Walensky’s CDC has deliberately concealed, misled, obfuscated, or opted to not even collect information about injuries and deaths from the Covid “vaccines.”” – James Howard Kunstler

Descent into Public Health Totalitarianism – “The unspeakable stain of the Covid tyranny requires the very opposite of the “pandemic amnesty” that the craven poltroons at the Atlantic magazine suggested recently. That’s because the precedent was such a grave affront to constitutional liberty and capitalist prosperity that those responsible should be exposed, hounded and shamed, and prosecuted where warranted,” – David Stockman

Event 202 The Sequel Is Happening In 2025. Same Hollywood Actors As Event 201. – “So I heard a rumour that Kill Gates was planning another pandemic. Unless you have been hiding under a rock then you can’t have missed it. I thought I would dig a little deeper though than your average tweet. As you will only remember too well, a few years ago Gates and his then wife Melinda uttered the famous words that the second pandemic would get our attention (as they laughed and smiled). The US president Joe Biden then echoed what Gates had said when on June 21st 2022 we were told “There’s gonna be another pandemic”.The lunatics running the asylum love to tell us what is going to happen. Interestingly this 2025 virus is called Severe Epidemic Enterovirus Respiratory Syndrome The acronym is SEERS Guess what a SEER is. You guessed it “A person who can see what is happening in the future” You can’t make this 💩 up, they just love taking the piss out of the 🐑 We are being told what is coming down the tracks and its going to happen in 2025.” – threadsirish  – GOOD ARTICLE FROM THREADSIRISH!!!!

WEF announces themes for Davos 2023 – Theme #4: “Preparing for the Next Pandemic” – “Davos 2022 held last May was the first in-person Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum since January 2020. Davos 2023, running from 16-20 January, marks a return to the January event. Entitled “Cooperation in a Fragmented World,” the meeting will be about: The 6 main topics for 2023 will be: Ukraine shines a light on importance of global cooperation Three interconnected crises – climate, food, energy Don’t use ‘Recession’ (but it might be coming anyway) Preparing for the next pandemic requires ending health disparities Gender, inequality and Jobs of Tomorrow ‘Our future is digital’ This comes shortly after “Catastrophic Contagion” (the sequel to Event 201) held last October.” – Strange Sounds

Why Hasn’t Governor DeSantis Stopped the COVID Vaccines in Florida When He Admits They are Killing People? – “So what is Governor DeSantis’s call to action? He is asking the Florida State Supreme Court to convene a Grand Jury to look into the drug companies that produced the shots, and “hold them accountable.” AND EVERYONE IN THE RIGHT WING ALTERNATIVE MEDIA CHEERED, while people in Florida continue to get the COVID-19 shots, and give them to their children who continue to die and become crippled.” – Brian Shilhavy

The SBF Scandal: The Players and the Money – “The complexities of the FTX scandal with Sam Bankman-Fried at the helm boggles the mind. Unlike the Madoff scandal, which was incredibly simple, the funding, influence, and political networks sounding the $32 billion collapse of FTX is byzantine by design. Just have a look at the org chart of the company to get a sense. It’s all the better for avoiding oversight. Their operations and networks are deliberately obscure and fan out over many countries, institutions, and individuals. There is a strange silence in the air about the details other than the general observation that Sam Bankman-Fried was up to no good. And yet there were obviously many people involved. It’s probable that the main point was to fund political causes in a way that gets around federal election law,” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

When the Lights Go Out . . . – “When the power goes out, the lights go out. Break out the flashlights and candles. But it rarely means you cannot go out. Unless, of course, you have an electric car – and you assumed the power would be on, to charge it up. Then – per the Toothless Man in Deliverance – you ain’t a goin’ nowhere, city boy. On the other hand, a power outage has zero effect on your car or truck’s ability to take you somewhere – like to work, for instance – if it is not an electric car (or truck). Even if its “range” is low because you only left a couple gallons in the tank, it’s not a problem – especially if you had the foresight to keep a few gallons of gas in a jug for just-in-case.” – Eric Peters

Biden to Destroy the Fishing Industry Next – “The Biden Administration is now targeting fishing. They have argued all along that boats expel more CO2 than cars, Cows, or Airplanes. So it is no surprise to now target boating imposing a 10-knot speed limit. This will end the deep sea fishing period – both for sport and food supply.” – Martin Armstrong

Will Ron DeSantis exorcise Donald Trump?- “US Republicans seem to want The Donald minus the drama, and the rising GOP star provides that” – Bradley Blankenship

Why aren’t we keeping track of mass overdoses like mass shootings? – “The term “mass shooting” may not have a standard definition, but there are no shortage of attempts to keep track of how many take place in the United States from groups like the Gun Violence Archive, which is routinely cited by mainstream media as an authoritative voice on the number of mass shootings around the country. What I want to know is why no one is doing the same when it comes to mass overdoses; which are likely far more common than mass shootings given that the number of drug-related deaths is more than twice that of all gun-involved deaths (homicide, suicide, and accidents/negligence)?” – Cam Edwards

The insufferable snobbery of Harry and Meghan – “Their ghastly Netflix weep-fest was an act of slander against the British people.” – Brendan O’Neill

Putin Attempting to Prevent a Repeat of the Clinton-Yeltsin Destruction of Russia – “Clinton was selected to be president precisely because he is a high-level psychopath able to usher neoliberal policies. In September, former president Bill Clinton said Russia did not go into Ukraine to prevent NATO expansion. “The former president said the U.S. and NATO never meant to threaten Russia and that the nations of Eastern Europe had a right to live in security after decades of being dominated by Russia,” No mention of Clinton’s betrayal of Russia. Or that of George H.W. Bush, James Baker, and German Chancellor Helmut Kohl. All had promised NATO would not push its troops up against Russia’s border, an obvious national security threat for Russia. It does not have similar troops and war materiel lined up against the borders of Canada and Mexico.” – Kurt Nimmo

Putin’s Conundrum – “Why would Putin waste time on the various theories circulating among foreign policy wonks in the United States if he wasn’t concerned that these ideas were actionable? The only explanation is that Putin is worried, and the reason he is worried is because he knows that these ideas (preemption and ‘disarming strike’) hold-sway among the elite cadres of powerbrokers who decide these matters in Washington. Putin probably realizes that there is a sizable constituency in Washington that support the use of nuclear weapons and who believe they are essential to preserving the “rules-based order”. In short, Putin believes these ideas are “actionable” which is why he expressed concern.” – Mike Whitney

Pray For Ukraine? Pray For America! – “Turn on Christian cable television programs, and you constantly hear, “Pray for Ukraine.” Listen to almost any Christian radio broadcast, and you constantly hear, “Pray for Ukraine.” Attend almost any evangelical church, and you will hear the pastor plead, “Pray for Ukraine.” The vast majority of evangelicals merely use their religion as a way to justify and promote their politics. Say it another way: Their religion is the sacrifice that they lay on the altar of their politics. They don’t see themselves as being made in God’s image; they see God as being made in their image. And that image is 100% political. ” – Chuck Baldwin

Futures Tumble Ahead Of $4 Trillion Quad Witch, 2nd Biggest Ever OpEx – Tyler Durden

Dow slides 500 points Friday, bringing 3-day losses to more than 4% – Sarah Min and Alex Harring

Bidenflation clocks in at 13.2%, according to new TIPP index; so much for Joe Biden’s crowing – “Joe Biden made a big deal about inflation falling this week, to 7.1%, down from a 9.1% high last June, and lower than last month’s 7.7%. All of which is baloney to the average consumer. Prices are up, and Joe Biden caused the problem by spending and printing money for government boondoggles, like a proverbial drunken sailor. The figure cited is year-on-year, which doesn’t really convey the extent of the problem. The real measure of inflation is the one that begins with Joe Biden’s administration, with the first whole month of it in February 2021, not the year-on-year figures which aren’t what the public thinks about as it watches this wide scale inflation eat up their paychecks. That number, according to the new TIPP inflation index, the TIPP CPI, is 13.2%. ” – Monica Showalter

Bears biting back? – “Gold and silver spiked higher this week before selling off after the Fed increased its funds rate by 0.5%, followed by the Bank of England and the ECB. From last Friday’s close, in early morning European trade gold was down $22 at $1775, having peaked at $1824 on Wednesday. Silver was trading at $22.60, down 85 cents on the week having traded as high as $24.12.” – Alasdair Macleod

The Do-Re-Mi of Treasury Notes – “After the most radical money creation binge in modern history (upwards of $5 trillion in 2020-21), the Fed is attempting a massive purge. In 2022, the Fed has hiked the federal funds rate a combined 4.25 percent. These rate hikes have also influenced (i.e., distorted) the Treasury market.” – MN Gordon

    THE BIG PICTURE NEWS

The Age of Conformity Has Led to the Edge of Hell on Earth – “In order for such a widespread and all-encompassing control over people to be advanced, much time and effort to indoctrinate and brainwash large swaths of the common population must be achieved. This indoctrination effort has to begin, and be accomplished, by dumbing down the very young, so that over time, they become much easier to control. The so-called ‘public’ (government) school system, a system created and set up by the top ruling class, is the perfect psychological weapon to train the sheep into a mass compliance attitude; this a premeditated outcome based on creating a society that is just capable enough to do the required work without any desire to question their own rule. This plan was and is evil, but it is genius at the same time. The state in essence, takes over, and by ‘legal’ mandate, law, and force, the role of parent to most all the children in society, and retains that control throughout childhood and beyond.” – Gary D. Barnett

Fauci wants to give you more COVID boosters for Christmas because we’re still ‘in a pandemic’ – “While warning that we are ‘still in the middle of a pandemic,’ Fauci is once again assuring us that yet another booster is the answer. What is interesting, besides his god-complex and megalomania, is that he said we are in the “third year” of the so-called pandemic. That is a bit strange, considering the Monday Night Football-esque countdown to the apocalypse didn’t start until March 2020, which is hardly three years ago. Come to think of it, I did hear something about the virus being released in 2019, and there was all this hubbub about Fauci leading the charge to create viruses in Chinese labs. Well, anyway, probably just another conspiracy theory.” – Kennedy Hall

Bad “Unvaccinated” Driver! – “If they can’t get you “vaccinated” via a mandate, maybe they’ll be able to get you using the mafia. The insurance mafia. But what of the supposed/asserted correlation of “neglecting basic road safety guidelines” and “72 percent more likely to be involved in a severe traffic crash in which at least one person was transported to the hospital”? It is a piece of misinformation that predates the weaponization of hypochondria.” – Eric Peters  – LOVE THE TERM “WEAPONIZING HYPOCHONDRIA”,  INDEED, THAT IS WHAT THEY HAVE DONE THROUGHOUT THE SCAMDEMIC!!!!!!!!!!

There Is No “Tripledemic” – “Influenza-Like Illnesses Have Always Occurred At The Same Time. Of all the inane and insane bits of COVID fear porn the corporate media has produced recently, it is hard to find any that are more ridiculous or unscientific than the notion of a “tripledemic” of COVID-19, Influenza, and Respiratory Syncytial VIrus (RSV), which are all happening with simultaneous increased frequency of late.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Setting the Record Straight on Ivermectin – “After the withdrawn studies have been removed from consideration, there are 15 trials that suggest that ivermectin doesn’t work for COVID-19 and 78 that do. Ivermectin is a repurposed drug that helps, and could have helped so much more. It deserves recognition, not disparagement. What we really need, however, is a way to inoculate ourselves against the lies and misrepresentations of powerful public figures, organizations, and drug companies. Sadly, there are no such vaccines for that contagion.” – David R. Henderson and Charles L. Hooper

COVID boosters 18 times more dangerous for young people than the virus itself, study finds – “According to the study’s authors, “[t]o prevent one COVID-19 hospitalisation over a six-month period, we estimate that 31,207–42,836 young adults aged 18–29 years must receive a third mRNA vaccine.”” – Andreas Wailzer

Leftists Aren’t Capable Of Surviving Economic Collapse – Here’s Why – “There is one factor that constantly stands out as absolutely essential to a person’s chances at surviving a crisis event, and that factor is mindset. It is no coincidence that the US military today is dealing with some of the worst recruitment conditions they have ever seen in terms of people being physically and mentally incapable of finishing basic training. The Pentagon currently estimates that 77% of young Americans are unfit for recruitment without a waiver for obesity, drug use and mental health problems. Meaning, Gen Z is so unfit physically and mentally if there was a major war almost 80% of them would be erased from existence. Leftists have a tendency to exploit crisis and tragedy to shore up power and expand their numbers through fear, but there’s a problem with this tactic. If the crisis is fabricated, a tempest in a teapot, then they do very well; if the crisis turns into an actual disaster with real world consequences including financial decline, supply chain disruptions, shortages and civil unrest, they have no tools to deal with the effects other than mob action and looting. What happens if they use mob action and looting when the rule of law is no longer a factor in a country with millions of guns? They will die, by the tens of thousands, as people defend their businesses and homes.” – Brandon Smith

America, We Can Choose Not to Tolerate Weirdos – “Somehow we got to the point where we’re expected to just nod politely when freaks, strangeos, and perverts turn up in positions of great responsibility. Well, that needs to change. Whether it’s some “non-binary” bondage mutant who oversees America’s nuclear waste betwixt bouts of luggage larceny or an Army colonel who – and yeah, this happened – masks up as a leather sex puppy in uniform on social media and who, along with junior officers, also dressed as carnal canines, forms what I guess would be an erotic litter. And then there’s the everyday parade of creepy groomer oddities teaching our kids – actually, indoctrinating them – who are so proud of it that they go post videos of themselves bragging about the gender confusion and woke nonsense they spread. Time to stop accepting the idea that we need to pretend weirdos are not weird.” – Kurt Schlichter

Bad news for Democrats: They may have to give Sam Bankman-Fried’s $40 million in campaign cash back – “With Sam Bankman-Fried busted and in a Bahamas hoosegow, we now learn the shady truth about just what the accused fraudster was up to.” – Monica Showalter

WH won’t say if Biden will return 2020 donations from Sam Bankman-Fried – “White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre wouldn’t say Tuesday whether President Biden would ask his aides to return 2020 campaign contributions from accused cryptocurrency con man Sam Bankman-Fried, “So look, I’m covered here by the Hatch Act — [I’m] limited on what I can say and anything that’s connected to political contributions from here, I would have to refer you to the DNC,” Jean-Pierre said, citing the federal law that prohibits certain officials from advocating for candidates.” – Steven Nelson  – TALK ABOUT A BULL SHIT RESPONSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Biden has become the unseen ghost at the funeral that is his presidency – “That he is nothing but an ineffectual figurehead—not even a minor celebrity—comes through loud and clear in a 15-second video of Biden at a toy store. there is no excuse for the fact that Joe Biden is seen in the scrim of a toy store with everyone ignoring him, whether it’s the children or the adults. The only ones with their eyes on Biden are the Secret Service agents tasked with keeping the uncaring children from crashing into the doddering old man wandering through their domain. Even when he stops to greet them, they react as if he’s not there: In this Christmas season, watching the American president wandering unseen through a crowded store, I can’t help but be struck by the similarity between Biden and Scrooge: Both are nasty, hate-filled men who view anyone who does not enrich them as worthless and worthy of being destroyed.” – Andrea Widburg

Mayorkas receives icy welcome from ‘lifeless’ Border Patrol agents – “Mayorkas traveled to West Texas on Monday and Tuesday to meet with U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Border Patrol, Air and Marine Operations, and Office of Field Operations personnel. He focused his comments on smaller groups of management and rank-and-file agents and officers on suicide prevention, which those familiar with the discussions said fell on deaf ears. “When he stated he was here to bring light to suicide prevention and nothing [about] the migrant crisis, our staff couldn’t believe it and made it known to him,” a senior Border Patrol agent in El Paso told the Washington Examiner. “They asked him why he’s saying that the border is secure when we have no agents in the field,” the same agent said. “He had the nerve to respond that he never said the border was secure.”Mayorkas further fanned the flames by not visiting the land border, similar to Vice President Kamala Harris’s flub during her first and only visit to El Paso 18 months ago. ” – Anna Giaritelli

NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, and MSNBC Have Spent Just 14 MINUTES Combined Covering The ‘Twitter Files’ – “The term “Twitter files” has only been used six times by anchors. The data drops, which have also revealed that former Twitter execs, were regularly meeting with U.S. intelligence officials and policing content at their behest, have been almost completely ignored by the likes of CNN, NBC, ABC and CBS.” – Steve Watson  – IMAGINE THAT!!!!!!

DOES THAT MAKE HIM ACCOMPLISHED OR JUST ANOTHER PSYOP!!!!!!!

Elon Musk Might Have Just Dealt A Death Blow To NAFO – “Instead of Twitter taking Kiev’s side by boosting its trolls’ accounts and hashtags, it’s now finally moving towards becoming a neutral host of civilized debate, which aligns with Elon Musk’s noble mission. Be that as it is, this is still admittedly being implemented imperfectly as proven by the continued existence of certain troll accounts that explicitly violate the terms of service but have yet to be removed. Nevertheless, the progress achieved thus far is visible and prompted senior Ukrainian presidential advisor Mikhail Podolyak to publicly complain.” – Andrew Korybko

Senator Warren’s New Legislation Goes After Crypto Services and Private Bitcoin Wallets – “In the name of money laundering, Senator Elizabeth Warren goes after crypto. She has a Republican co-sponsor. I’m not sure how that is supposed to work but there is an obvious implication. A move of crypto in any size from a cold wallet to a hot wallet to buy something would get reported or the transaction would be deemed money laundering.” – Mish

What can Russia and the world expect from the US-Africa Leaders Summit? – “we can say that the forum conceived by the United States is positioned as a large-scale one, designed to outshine Chinese and Russian counterparts, and to demonstrate that the United States remains the “leader of the free world” and intends to lead and manage it. Washington wants to loudly declare that the world will remain unipolar and the US will be its leader. Only will African heads of state believe this against the backdrop of the clear failures of American foreign policy in other parts of the world where the American leadership leaves smoke and ruins?” – Oleg Pavlov

The Biden Regime’s Exploitive Africa Summit – “For centuries, US/Western regimes exploited African countries, subjugated their people as chattel, then wage slaves, and plundered its resources. Concluding on Thursday, the Biden regime’s three-day Africa summit has nothing to do with mutual cooperation between hegemon USA and African nations. Nothing to do with “food security and food systems resilience” on the continent. Nothing to do with promoting “good governance, democracy, respect for human rights and the rule of law.” Nothing to do with a “peaceful and secure Africa.” Nothing to do with support for a “prosperous Africa based on inclusive growth and sustainable development.” The Biden regime’s summit is all about continued US exploitation of the continent and its long-suffering people. Its pledge of increased investment on the continent is all about making US corporate predators richer “by causing the poor (of Africa) to become poorer.” The summit also aims to pressure, bully and bribe African leaders to ally with the empire of lies against Russia and China. Both nations have cooperative relations with African countries.” – Stephen Lendman

The Ballad of Joe Biden
 
Come and listen to my story about a man named Joe
A poor man from Scranton, couldn’t keep his son in blow,
And then one day he was shootin at some food,
And up through the ground come a bubblin crude.

Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.

Ten percent for the “Big Guy”

 

Well the first thing you know ol Joe’s a millionaire,
The kinfolk said “Joe move away from there”
Said “Californy is the place you ought to be”
So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly

Hills, that is. Immigrants, homeless people, high crime.

Old Joe bought a mansion, lordy it was swank
Next door neighbor’s the president of the bank.
Lotta folks complaining but the banker found no fault
‘Cause Joe’s a President too, and his money’s in the vault!

Redemption funds. Stocks and bonds. Ukranian pay offs.

Well now it’s time to say good bye to Joe and all his kin.
It’s past old Joe’s nap time and Jill needs to tuck him in.
You’re all invited back next week to this locality
To have a heapin helpin of their hospitality

Green new deals that is. Inflation. Set a spell, Take your shoes off.

Y’all come back now, y’hear?

An Epoch of Insanity – “We are, for now, in the hands of lunatics. We will be until we decide different, but that decision has yet to be made. I’ve made it, many in this forum have, too, but the greater share of the population cling to yesterday; when this was a republic; when those in office feared the opinions of the people; when doctors sought to heal, not kill for profit; when corporations sought customers not the approval of, and alliance with, those same lunatics. But no matter how ingenious, how persuasive, how absolutely charming or dangerous they might seem, these are mere mortals, without the protection of God and without the invincibility they claim. ” – T.L.

Cuidado con el Perro – “Mexican dogs don’t bark. And Mexican dogs don’t bite. By instinct or whatever tells them where to go and when, their life is one precarious daily journey for survival after another, with no guarantees for anything. For millennia it’s how we humans existed. Daily hunts for food. No guarantees of anything, no time for leisure or to be wasted on anything that doesn’t contribute to one’s survival. It’s how they want us all to exist again. Those of us, the useless eaters, the blobs of carbon that survive their various elimination rounds because we have sniffed out their scams well before arrival, we will no longer be permitted to thrive, only to exist. As long as they do not hear any barks of protest they will push and push us to the edge, where survival becomes a task of daily journeys, exhausting and precarious. And they know they’ve done all they need to make sure that we never even dare show our teeth to them, and so they fear no bite. And as long as they fear no bite, then our existence is also an apparition, and we are just bobbing heads trodding along chasing scents of hope, the promises of a better future for all which doesn’t interest them. We are merely expendable. To them, we are all just stray Mexican dogs.” – The Good Citizen

Project Rosalind and The Tower of Basel – “CBDC to be launched in 2023? It has been clear for a while now that Rishi Sunak wants to introduce Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs). He announced his intentions whilst Chancellor of the Exchequer, last year. Since then the new WEF King appointed him as the WEF Prime Minister, the public had absolutely no say in who the new leader of the country was. Together with the new WEF Chancellor, Jeremy Hunt (put into place during the coup removing Liz Truss), Rishi Sunak has reversed almost every policy that the Tory’s were voted in on.” – The Naked Emperor

Corporate Media’s Christmas Gift: More COVID Fear Porn – “With cold and flu (and COVID) season in full swing, we should not be surprised that the corporate media is trying desperately to resurrect the Pandemic Panic Narrative, once again pushing the canard of hospital systems filled to the brim with COVID patients.” – Peter Nayland Kust

You’d Better Watch Out: The Surveillance State Is Making a List, and You’re On It – “Mass surveillance is the Deep State’s version of a “gift” that keeps on giving…back to the Deep State. Geofencing dragnets. Fusion centers. Smart devices. Behavioral threat assessments. Terror watch lists. Facial recognition. Snitch tip lines. Biometric scanners. Pre-crime. DNA databases. Data mining. Precognitive technology. Contact tracing apps. What these add up to is a world in which, on any given day, the average person is now monitored, surveilled, spied on and tracked in more than 20 different ways by both government and corporate eyes and ears. Big Tech wedded to Big Government has become Big Brother.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

The woke war on truth- “The Cambridge Dictionary’s redefinition of the word woman is a gross assault on reality. Now even the dictionary is lying to us. The Cambridge Dictionary has updated its definition of the word woman to include men. A woman is now any adult ‘who lives and identifies as female’ even if they had a ‘different sex at birth’. That is, even if they’re blokes. Even if they sport a pair of testicles. Even if they’re one of those human beings we’ve referred to as men for millenia.” – Brendan O’Neill

Such is the state of “Covid science” nowadays, and not just in Canada.” – Igor Chudov  – ANOTHER USELESS STUDY PUT OUT FOR PROPAGANDA PURPOSES ONLY!!!!

The Microwave You Drive? – “You may not listen to AM radio. But you might be interested in why AM is going away. Well, it’s not actually going away. AM continues to broadcast. But a growing number of new cars cannot receive what is broadcast via AM. It is because EMF (Electromagnetic Frequency) emissions – to borrow a popular word – interfere with AM reception to such an extent as to make listening to anything being broadcast via AM essentially impossible. The manufacturers of electric vehicles don’t want complaints from customers annoyed by a feature that doesn’t work – and can’t be made to work, at least not properly. But what about the underlying problem? The reason why AM broadcast reception is a problem in electric vehicles? Has anyone looked into whether an EV’s EMF emissions are – to borrow a phrase – safe and effective? It is known that, as a general principle, too much EMF radiation isn’t good for your health. It is why people are advised to not hold a smartphone against their heads, for instance. This caution is interesting given that an electric car can be considered a massive smartphone.” – Eric Peters  – GREAT POINT FROM ERIC AS USUAL!!!!!

Joe Biden explodes into rage over talk about his advanced age and mental decline – “Joe Biden isn’t too sensitive about the wreckage and ruin he’s wrought on the U.S. through his open borders, Afghanistan pullout, or inflationary government spending, but bring up the topic of his advanced age and his re-election prospects, and he becomes a different creature: “You think I don’t know how f—ing old I am?” an exasperated Biden — who reportedly has a penchant for profanity — ranted to one of his acquaintances earlier this year, He gets lost. He forgets which country he’s in. He garbles words. He reads teleprompters verbatim. He’s led around by Jill, or random little kids on stages. He forgets names. He stumbles on steps. He falls off his bike. He forgets where he is. He flies into bizarre rages. The list goes on and on, all of it evidence of his mental decline.” – Monica Showalter

Border Overrun: Swarms of Illegal Migrants Hit El Paso – “What happens now that they’re here? Title 42 is still valid for a few more days, but tell that to people in El Paso,” – Kelli Ballard

Biden: U.S. should have “societal guilt” over not passing a gun ban – “There are a number of problems with Biden’s attempt at emotional manipulation here, starting with the fact that bans on so-called assault weapons are both unconstitutional and completely ineffective at preventing active shooting incidents. But Biden’s statement also contradicts the very legislation he’s been pushing in the Senate. The so-called assault weapons ban approved by the House on a 217-213 vote earlier this year contains a grandfather provision “permitting” existing owners to maintain possession of their legally purchased semi-automatic rifles. The truth, of course, is that grandfathering in existing firearms is simply a sop to get “moderate” lawmakers to back the ban, and a provision that can always be axed once the initial ban is in place. We’ve seen the gun control lobby use that particular strategy in states like California and New Jersey, ” – Cam Edwards

Biden Opens Africa Summit With Sanctioning African Leaders- “The Biden administration is holding a summit with some 40 leaders of African countries. The U.S. is late in fostering better relations with Africa. What the leaders from Africa demand is first of all respect. There is no serious attempt to really get into better relations with African countries. There is not much to expect from the meeting but empty words and not so empty threats. Yesterday, the day before the first summit meeting is supposed to take place, the Biden administration set the tone by … sanctioning African leaders.” – Moon of Alabama

Delayed war powers vote risks further suffering in Yemen – “After White House pressure, Sen. Bernie Sanders withdrew his resolution aimed at ending US complicity in the Saudi-led conflict.” – Annelle Sheline

Thermonuclear Endgame Creeps Forward – “Patriot missiles to Ukraine and Poland. This provocative move is a direct and deliberate violation of a primary Russian red line. Russia has warned it will not tolerate USG and NATO offensive missiles on its border in Ukraine. It considers any such move a threat to its national security. The threat is compounded by the Biden administration’s call for weakening Russia and overthrowing Vladimir Putin, the elected president. But it gets worse.” – Kurt Nimmo

Kremlin Vows To Take Out Patriot Batteries If US Sends To Ukraine – Tyler Durden

The Murder Itself Phase – “A year ago, when the Russians began to assemble forces along the Russia – Ukraine border, Western planners were sure that whatever the Russians were planning could only last a few months. This short time frame thinking is clear in the economic sanctions that were levied against Russia when the war started. It did not require an advanced degree in economics to see that these sanctions would hurt the West. The second assumption was that China and India would eagerly jump aboard the sanctions train. This has turned out to be the biggest error. The Global American Empire is not dying because it has run its course, but because it is run by stupid people who keep making critical errors in vitally important areas of imperial business. Adams famously said of democracy that it “wastes, exhausts, and murders itself.” Perhaps this is true of democratic empires and America is now in the murder itself phase.” – The Z Man

The Fed Believes Inflation Will Be 2% in 2023… GOOD LUCK WITH THAT! – “The known universe expects the Fed to raise rates by 0.5%. And the current consensus is that by this time next year, inflation will be down near 2%. It’d be hilarious if it didn’t involve so much suffering. To understand what I mean by this, let’s wind the clocks back a year to the Fed’s December 15th 2021, FOMC meeting. At that time, the Fed had only just decided that inflation was NOT “transitory.” ” – Graham Summers, MBA

    THE BIG PICTURE NEWS

Twitter Became the Ministry of Truth – “New material Musk released over the weekend confirms the very worst. The banal boys and girls previously ensconced in Twitter’s top echelons were not only having a jolly time attempting to steer the nation’s news narrative; these executives were actually meeting weekly with FBI, Homeland Security and national intelligence officials to discuss “disinformation” they wanted removed from the site, including the notorious suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story. That’s just one step removed from a state-run Ministry of Truth and is perhaps even more insidious. That’s because it didn’t even involve unwanted and unconstitutional coercion. Instead, the executives of this private enterprise were voluntarily neglecting their day jobs (maximizing corporate profits and shareholder value) in order to spend a huge amount of corporate time and resources propagating official narratives and suppressing dissenting view” – David Stockman

Blood Clot Mania – “Put two and two together and you’ve got what seems to be a clear indication that anyone having taken the killer vaccination will soon die and, if not the actual cause of death, will certainly develop these almost alien like forms in their blood vessels. Talk about Invasion of the Body Snatchers! What could be more obvious? Or is it as obvious as it seems? Well, it is rather indisputable that something quite horrific is happening. I think it has pretty much been proven these things are indeed unique, and never seen before” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP

“Sudden death from unknown cause” – “Quite a jump in the German data” – El Gato Malo

Pandemicism and the Foreknowledge of the Virus Planners – “What’s missing from all these planning scenarios – what every last one of them fails to predict – is the steely biomedical dictatorship that emerged to ruin all of our lives in 2020. Nobody in any of these wargames is ever locked up in their homes.” – eugyppius

How Lockdowns Made Us Sicker – “Rather than encouraging the vulnerable populations to shelter and everyone else to gain immunities through living normal life, lockdown policies pushed the working classes in front of the pathogen as a protection scheme for ruling classes. And yet now, the results are in. Those who delayed infection for as long as possible, or otherwise tried to game the careful ecological balance with newly invented shots, not only eventually got Covid but made themselves even more vulnerable to diseases that are already endemic in the population.” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

A Tale of Two Narratives : Twitter Edition – “On the one hand, lots of people react to the following tweet by Elon Musk, ‘My Pronouns Are Prosecute/Fauci,’ by claiming Fauci saved millions of lives. On the other hand, just as many people (or so it seems) claim Fauci killed millions of people. It’s hard to get a bigger, and more consequential, chasm, than that. And apparently this Musk tweet got the most likes in Twitter history. What does that tell us? This chasm is not just on Twitter, this is the entire country plus anywhere else on the planet where people follow this. Despite the enormous 24/7 pressure to accept “The Science”, get a shot and a mask, and shut up. “- Raúl Ilargi Meijer  – GOOD READ FROM RAUL!!!

All the proof you need: The left wants to steal your guns – “Leftist liberty deniers parrot a version of “nobody wants to take anybody’s guns away” in almost any debate on the commonsense civil right of self-defense for several reasons. They do this primarily to give you a false sense of security that they really aren’t out to confiscate guns — when that has been and always will be their ultimate goal. But that isn’t the only reason. They want to avoid the stark, historical comparisons with authoritarian fascists and socialists of the recent past that began their oppressive regimes with the confiscation of guns. Always keep in mind that the gaslighting ghouls of the left are lying about their ultimate goal of taking your guns and that everything they do is built around that endpoint.” – D. Parker

The Justice Department Faces Questions After Effectively Preventing Bankman-Fried from Testifying in Congress – “The arrest of Sam Bankman-Fried yesterday was sudden and unexpected in light of Bankman-Fried’s plan to testify before Congress. As a criminal defense attorney, my reaction to the arrest last night remains unchanged: this is the first time that I can recall where prosecutors moved aggressively to stop a defendant from making self-incriminating statements. His testimony would have been entirely admissible and likely devastating at trial. So why would the Justice Department move to stop the self-inflicted damage? You have a major target who was about to voluntarily testify for hours. That is ordinarily a dream for prosecutors, but the Justice Department moved quickly to prevent that from happening. At that stage, Bankman-Fried was not charged or in custody. He was not protected by Miranda or other constitutional rules from self-incriminating statements. The curious move led many to question whether the Biden Administration was eager to prevent questions on Bankman-Fried’s political contributions and associations.” – Jonathan Turley  – OF COURSE THEY WANT TO SHUT HIM UP!!!!

Did Russia and China sign a secret defense pact? – “It would be an unexpected development, as both countries have long eschewed Cold War-style blocs and alliances.” – Ted Snider

Putin Shrugs-Off Washington’s Provocations and ‘Sticks to Business’ – “Last week’s drone attacks on Russian military bases represent a serious escalation in Washington’s proxy war on Russia. We have no doubt that Russia’s Top Brass recommended tit-for-tat missile strikes beyond Ukraine’s borders as a form of equal payback. Fortunately, cooler heads prevailed and the military stuck with its current strategy of obliterating critical infrastructure in cities across the country. Just hours after the third attack, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken delivered a statement denying any responsibility for the incident. Not surprisingly, Blinken’s denial fell well-short of a formal repudiation of the attack itself which one might have expected. More to the point, it appears that the US was directly involved given that “Both NATO and Russian observers (claim) US satellite involvement in attacks on Russian bases.” – Mike Whitney

NATO Chief Voices Fear Of War With Russia While US Greenlights Drone Strikes On Russian Territory – “And it’s pretty crazy to hear Stoltenberg voice these concerns even while the Pentagon gives the go-ahead for Ukraine to begin launching long-range attacks on targets inside Russia in its war that is being backed by the United States, because those two positions would seem to be pretty strongly at odds with each other.” – Caitlin Johnstone

A Hair Trigger on Endgame – “The insouciance of Washington and its European puppets toward the dangerous situation they are provoking with Russia is frightening. The Western world is now led by people who have made it clear that they will risk nuclear war in their pursuit of American hegemony. Evil has clearly triumphed in the Western world.” – Paul Craig Roberts

At Least The Russians Told Us They Have Doomsday Machine – “The economic impact of a small nuclear exchange would likely be devastating on a global scale. The environmental impact of course would be equally terrible. Imagine a large scale nuclear exchange. When you look at risk and reward, the escalation of this conflict becomes less and less rational. Imagine if Russia took the Biden regime change speech seriously in the spring. Thankfully our puppet fake president is not taken seriously. At least in the cold war there was a healthy fear of blowing up the world.” – Dr. Joseph Sansone

How Will the Blob React if Ukraine Faces Defeat? – “Members of the US foreign policy establishment do not have a good track record about being willing to abandon failed enterprises. It is hard to imagine that people with the same mentality will abandon Ukraine after exerting every effort to portray that country as a vibrant democracy and a crucial ally.” – Ted Galen Carpenter

This is apparently great news because Wall Street expected the number to be somewhere between 7.2% and 7.6%. So, according to those buying stocks today, a 0.1% “beat” on an inflation number that is still north of 7% despite the Fed implementing its most aggressive rate hike cycle in 40 years in is a reason to panic bid stocks higher.” – Graham Summers, MBA

But unlike well-run private mints, these government bureaucrats are incapable of or unwilling to address their production and sourcing stumbles, so demand for silver Eagles continues to outstrip supply. Buying silver Eagles is something of habit for some investors. In addition, the droves of newcomers entering the markets these days are instinctively drawn to the coins. They are official, legal tender and carry universal recognizability.

Winter Survival in the Wild – “Most of what I see about wilderness survival seems to be written as if all survival situations happen in the summertime, with good weather. There never seems to be any issue with cold, rain or snow; but if you ever find yourself surviving in the wilderness, you can pretty much count having at least one of those weather conditions, if not all three. This attitude of good weather shows up in how most preppers build their bug out bags. It’s rare to see sleeping bags, tents and other things to help keep you warm, even though backpackers carry them regularly. I carry rescue blankets and have used them in survival situations; but I’d never trust one to keep me as warm and comfortable as a nice down sleeping bag. Surviving in the winter requires being ready for the cold” – Bill White

Bill himself showed up: The “lessons learned” strongly lean towards a much stronger stance against “misinformation” than during the Covid pandemic. After all, Covid skeptics won out, which is NOT acceptable to Bill Gates. So, Bill Gates is planning the next catastrophic contagion pandemic, killing younger people, where a much stronger misinformation control will be undertaken. Bill Gates is a brilliant man and a visionary. He has an uncanny ability to foresee future pandemics.” – Igor Chudov

A team led by researchers at Washington State University’s Paul G. Allen School for Global Health discovered spike proteins from the bat virus, known as Khosta-2. SHTFPlan first reported on this virus back in September, however, the timing of this big media release is interesting: This Khosta-2 virus is being more widely reported on now that a new global pandemic (scamdemic) exercise has been completed. Catastrophic Contagion, A Global Challenge Exercise has been completed, and in this exercise, a virus disproportionately affects children and is “vaccine” resistant.” – Mac Slavo

The Alarm Bells Go Off – “While all this madness is going on in-country, the US government, led by the phantom president “Joe Biden,” continues to prosecute its insane proxy war in Ukraine in order to antagonize Russia. Lately the US has sent drones hundreds of miles inside Russia to blow up military airfields. How is that not an escalation of hostilities, and exactly how far do the American people want their government to take this crazy project? Not a goshdarn inch further, the opinion polls indicate. We are apparently not quite so insane as to welcome nuclear annihilation, and we seem to recognize what might bring it on.” – James Howard Kunstler

Our Parasitic Generation – “Yes, there is a lot of ruin in great nations. But even America is by now running low on it. Are we sure that there is all that much ruin left in the United States? We are $31 trillion in collective debt. The new normal is $1.5 trillion budget deficits. The military is politicized and short of recruits. We trade lethal terrorists for woke celebrity athletes as if to confirm our enemies’ cynical stereotypes.

Shocked? Me neither. Most significantly, Biden’s DHS cut deportations by more than 90 percent in four of these 50 highest-volume counties: Gwinnett County, Georgia; Plymouth County, Massachusetts; Bergen County, New Jersey; and Kankakee County, Illinois. Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Illinois are all sanctuary states.” – Mike Miller

While it may be a brand of hypocrisy that John Kerry has perfected, Biden’s climate czar apparently has some competition from Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.” – Spencer Brown

The Most Important Fed Meeting, Ever, With Silver Now Positive On The Year – “Depending on what price one uses at the metric, silver is now basically “unch” or slightly positive on the year. While there are still many trading days left to close out 2022, this week could prove to be especially explosive in the markets. That is to say, the Fed concludes its most recent 2-day FOMC Meeting this Wednesday, December 14, 2022, and suffice it to say, someone will be jumping for joy.” – Paul “Half Dollar” Eberhart

The Climate Alarmists Are Deeply Disturbed People – “We feel confident in saying that not a single prediction of global warming catastrophe has occurred.

But rather than admit their errors, they point to natural events as evidence that they’re not wrong and keep warning us that the end is near.

Her termination from Twitter did not leave her unemployed and homeless. A year earlier, she had already been tapped as an advisor to CISA, which is the government’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency headed by Jen Easterly, who was chosen to head the new agency (created in 2018) out of her tenure at the National Security Agency. ” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

 

 

 

NEWS

Swimming with Sharks – “So, Elon Musk’s new free-speech Twitter appears to going extremely well. Critics of the official Covid narrative, and the official Ukraine narrative, and Elon Musk, are still being deplatformed, censored, and defamed, but, otherwise, you can tweet whatever you want! If you want to tweet about how Elon is running Twitter almost single-handedly or is otherwise heroically “doing God’s work,” go for it … you can tweet stuff like that all day! OK, sure, if you don’t want to do that, and, instead, you want to tweet about the systematic destabilization and radical restructuring of global society that has been carried out by the global-capitalist ruling classes during the past three years, or the most insidious official propaganda and gaslighting campaign in human history, or if you want to tweet about neo-Nazis in the Ukraine, or anything else the Emperor Elonicus doesn’t want you to tweet about, well, not to put too fine a point on it, you’re fucked. Fucked as in suspended, or censored, or “deboosted,” or “visibility filtered,” or maybe your account is just hidden from view behind one of these fake “sensitive content” warnings, exactly like it was on non-free-speech Twitter …” – CJ Hopkins

The Biggest Obstacle To Real Freedom Is The Belief That We Already Have It – “If you live in one of the so-called free democracies of the western world, the worst mistake you can make is to buy into the hype. To believe you are a free individual in a nation that respects and protects your freedom and individuality.” – Caitlin Johnstone

To Hell with Iran, China & Hunter: Americans Are Suffering – “To be both white and unvaccinated—the COVID clot-shot having been transformed into an Orwellian mark of compliance—is to be blighted twice. Officially, unvaccinated non-citizens may still not enter the United States. The TSA and the DHS have decided to extend President Biden’s Proclamation banning unvaccinated non-citizens from entering the US at least until January. The GOP is mum. It is clear this edict is not enforced against the millions of Latin Americans and other browns and blacks pouring into America from across the globe with no end in sight. Equally dispiriting—more in need of legislator oversight than the Hunter Biden distraction—is the plight of very many Americans who’re denied access to major arteries of commerce and democratic participation having been convicted of thought crimes, for expressing impolite and impolitic ideas.” – Ilana Mercer

African reporter claims repeated discrimination in Biden’s White House press briefing room – “On his very first day at the White House, Joe Biden laid down the rules about the work environment he wanted. “If you are ever working with me and I hear you treat another colleague with disrespect, or talk down to someone, I promise you I will fire you on the spot.” Almost two years later, those promises have melted into thin air.. The latest casualty in Biden’s war on the adversarial press is a journalist named Simon Ateba, who works for Today News Africa, a news organization focusing on U.S.-Africa ties.” – Rajan Laad

Fox News MIA on Lake lawsuit – ““Fair, Balanced and Unafraid” is now a distant memory. Whatever the cause, considering the Fox News Channel to be a name to trust is a complete waste of time. The fix is in. Fox News reports on what they are told, not what is important for the country. This includes the most popular shows in the evening, Jesse Waters, Tucker Carlson, Shawn Hannity, and Laura Ingraham. All four still appear to be fighting for our country, but only on approved stories.” – Jack Gleason – IS FOX JUST CONTROLLED OPPOSITION NOW AS THE WRITER SUGGESTS!!!!!!!!

Elon Didn’t Reinstate My Twitter Account – “Elon Musk is a member in good standing with the global elite. Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, bought Twitter and said those of us banished to the social media hinterland will be reinstated. I’m still waiting. Yes, interesting, so long as you don’t mention Ukraine. All it took was one post pointing out an irrefutable fact. There are neo-Nazi thugs in Ukraine, in the government and military, and Biden and Congress have sent them billions of dollars. Mentioning this truth resulted in a permanent ban.” – Kurt Nimmo

HoHoHo… UK’s New Stealth War Machine to Warm Hearts of Poor and Freezing Britons – “Poor and freezing Britons will no doubt be cheered by the BBC’s report that Britain is to build a new stealth fighter jet. How cozy to know the skies above are being protected while you and your children are huddled under dank blankets with ice on the inside of windows. It’s surreal what people are being insulted with these days. The term “stealth jet” is well-named. The stealth of robbing people with a ridiculous boondoggle. Rishi Sunak, the British prime minister, announced the “good news” while visiting an RAF base as if it was an early Christmas gift to the nation.” – Finian Cunningham

Drought in Argentina-nothing alive – “The stark signs of a historic drought that is hammering crops and farmers like Ignacio Bastanchuri include the dried-out bed of a huge lagoon in the fields around the town of Navarro in Argentina’s Pampas farm belt and the decaying bodies of dead cattle. Navarro is one of dozens of towns in the bread-basket province of Buenos Aires struggling under the prolonged drought that is threatening the country’s major wheat, corn, and soy crops.” – Budrigan News

Plant-Based Meat Substitutes Lack Nutritional Quality Of The Real Thing, Study Reveals – “Researchers analyzed 44 different meat alternatives available for purchase in Sweden. Most of these products consist of soy and pea protein, but they also include the fermented soy product tempeh and mycoproteins — proteins from fungi. Results show plant-based meat alternatives don’t measure up to the innate nutritional value of consuming animal protein.” – Chris Melore

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

The soldier boy for his soliders pay
Obeys the seargent at arms whatever he says

The seargent will for his seargent’s pay
Obey the captain ’til his dying day
The captain will for his captain’s pay
Obey the general order of battle play
The generals bow to the government
Obey the charge you must not relent

What of the neighbors and the prophets in bars?
What are they saying in the publiz bazaar?
We are tired of the tune
You must not relent

At every stroke of the bell in the tower there goes
Another boy from another side

The bulletins that steady come in say those
Familiar words at the top of the hour

The jamming city increases its hum
And those terrible words continue to come

Through bras music of government hear those
Guns tattoo a roll on the drums

No-one mentions the neighboring war
No one knows what they’re fighting for
We are tired of the tune
You must not relent

       THE BIG PICTURE NEWS 

15-Minute City Insanity Is Only ‘Climate Change’ Lockdown Madness – “The candy offered to the herd in the form of temporary lifting of draconian mandates is meant only to satisfy the short-term longing of the proletariat so as to gain future compliance and obedience from the sheep in order for the state to create a true slave society. One of the linchpins of this plot is to concentrate the population into so-called ‘smart’ cities, with 15 minute zones, where no travel outside this time frame is allowed without very restrictive monitoring. This is true insanity sold in the form of convenience, safety, and the bogus claim of protecting the earth. Preparation, trials, and implementation of these atrocious prison-system cities are fully underway,” – Gary D. Barnett

Never Forget – “One of the most effective negative ad campaigns was the “Would you buy a used car from this man?” campaign that targeted Richard Nixon, who looked shifty and was shifty. In that sense, it wasn’t negative. It was truthful. Who would buy a used car – or anything else – from Nixon? Well, who would buy a “vaccine” from the shifty, shady people pushing them? People like Dr. Fauci, who lied when he said that “When people are vaccinated they’re not going to get infected.”” – Eric Peters

FDA Declares Homeopathy Illegal – “The homeopathic drugs you rely on have been declared illegal by the FDA, meaning the agency can wipe them off the market whenever they wish. This is the beginning of the end for homeopathy unless we do something about it. The FDA has completed their overhaul of homeopathy regulation, and it is as we feared: in the FDA’s view, all homeopathic products are illegal. Why is the FDA doing this? The agency, in attacking homeopathy, is working, once again, to protect the bottom line of drug-makers. The FDA is, and has been, out of control. It approves dangerous, expensive drugs that don’t work, and works to eliminate your access to natural alternatives to those dangerous, ineffective, and expensive drugs. The FDA doesn’t even want you learning about the benefits of natural products, lest you are persuaded to opt for medicines that are not FDA-approved drugs.” – ANH-USA

10,000 Dead Canadians – “Canada is literally massacring what once passed for its native population. Last year, more than 10,000 people in Canada – astonishingly that’s over three percent of all deaths there – ended their lives via euthanasia, an increase of a third on the previous year. And it’s likely to keep rising: next year, Canada is set to allow people to die exclusively for mental health reasons.” – Vox Popoli

Digital ID and Our Obsession with “Identity” – “The first known instance of a government collecting data of its citizens dates back to Babylon in about 3,800 BC. Governments needed to know how many people there were so they could calculate how much food was needed to feed them. A basic and necessary calculation. It was King Henry V of England who in 1414 implemented the first “passports” for those traveling on the king’s business to foreign countries. The Metropolitan Police Act 1829 recognized the need for police to gather records so that files could be kept on individuals, identified numerically. By 1849, the Netherlands had developed the first decentralized personal number (PN) system. And by 1936, the United States was issuing the first Social Security cards.” – Karen Hunt

Gun Shops And Customers Claim Credit Card Firms “Restrict” Firearm Purchases – “Gun rights advocates warned that a new change to the credit card industry to add a firearm and ammunition-specific Merchant Category Code (MCC) for gun stores wasn’t about tracking guns necessarily, but could lead to the denial of lawful firearms purchases by law-abiding citizens. Twitter account “Battlecock Tactical” tweeted, “Federal Firearms License [gun shop] in a Facebook group shared this.

Maxine Waters Leads Democrat Push for Banks to Atone for Slavery – “The Red Guard Cartel – Democrats, the mainstream media, and leftist academia – has been successful at convincing millions of black Americans that they are victims and deserve reparations for their perceived disadvantages. For the last several years, this has been the goal for woke politicians like Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), who recently held a hearing to advance the idea that today’s generation needs to atone for the misdeeds of 200 years ago. This time, she is not targeting taxpayers in Biloxi, MS. Instead, Waters and her colleagues are pushing banks to “redress past wrongs.”” – Andrew Moran  – NOW IT’S THE BANKS’ FAULT. NEVER SEE WHERE THEY ASK THE BLACK COUNTRIES IN AFRICA WHO CAPTURED, SOLD  AND SENT THEIR ANCESTORS TO THE US FOR REPARATIONS. SHOULDN’T THAT BE THE ORIGINAL SOURCE. AND SPEAKING OF MAXINE, SEE DEREK’S ARTICLE BELOW!!!!!

Have I Mentioned Lately Just How Corrupt Maxine Waters Is? – “I’m speaking, of course, about Sam Bankman-Fried, for former CEO of crypto currency company FTX and either one of the largest rip-off artists in history or biggest morons who managed to swindle, one way or another, billions of dollars from a lot investors. The extent of his corruption and/or incompetence is not yet known, which is why there are hearings on Capitol Hill being put together right now. Most investigations will take place next year because, in part, the House of Representatives isn’t really interested in finding out what happened. Why? Because it appears to have favored Democrats. The recipient of a big pile of those chits, and buckets of cash from Bankman-Fried is California Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters. She’s Chair of the House Financial Services Committee, exactly the committee that should be all over this FTX scandal. But Waters is an old hand at the DC game, and she knows the money Bankman-Fried and his cronies tossed around landed all over her fellow Democrats, including more than $300,000 of it on members of her committee.” – Derek Hunter

Fed up and Under-Fed All at the Same Time – ” OK, in the dot-com bust at the end of 2000 we were about a month shy of being in the declared recession when the PMI hit this level. But all other recessions were solidly in the red before this barometer hit this low level. However, I’ve been barking up this tree all year, and all I have to show for it so far is a mouthful of bark. So, go ahead and believe we’re not already in a recession, in spite of those two quarters of negative GDP earlier this year if you want. And then you’ll be a friend of the Fed.” – David Haggith

Digital Currency: The Fed Moves toward Monetary Totalitarianism – “The Federal Reserve is sowing the seeds for its central bank digital currency (CBDC). It may seem that the purpose of a CBDC is to facilitate transactions and enhance economic activity, but CBDCs are mainly about more government control over individuals. If a CBDC were implemented, the central bank would have access to all transactions in addition to being capable of freezing accounts.” – André Marques

Dangerous Precedent: NZ court orders baby removed from “anti-vax” parents – “The key detail here is that the parents have not, in any way, refused their child medical care – the usual prerequisite for this kind of court order. They want their son to have the surgery, they are simply setting reasonable terms. Now, whether or not the parents are correct and spike proteins do pose a threat, they have every right to try and do the best for their child as they see fit. To any pro “vaccine” people out there who are not OK with this, answer this simple question: What if parents of a vaccinated child had specifically requested vaccinated blood transfusions, and the court had removed the baby and injected it with unvaccinated blood…would that be OK?” – Kit Knightly  – A MUST READ FROM KIT!!!!

If this were a one-off, I wouldn’t bother writing about it.

NEWS

The Tool of Tools – “At what point in his arduous take-over of Twitter did Elon Musk realize that the package came with a joker in the deck: James A. Baker, formerly general counsel of the FBI? Did he wonder: what is this guy doing here? Mr. Baker, you understand, was notoriously at the center of the FBI’s FISA court fuckery that got the ball rolling in the Crossfire Hurricane operation, Act One of RussiaGate, as well as the Alpha Bank caper concocted by Hillary Clinton (disclosed this year by special counsel John Durham), and probably every other sedition pie the FBI cooked in its oven in those years, considering Mr. Baker’s position as chief legal advisor to Director Chris Wray. When the alt-news media caught onto Mr. Baker’s nefarious activities, he became inconvenient to the agency, was re-assigned to some nebulous task (polishing Mr. Wray’s cuff links?) But then, mysteriously, Mr. Baker got hired by Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey in June of 2020 — the heat of a presidential election — to work under Vijaya Gadde, Twitter’s general counsel (and chief of “legal, policy, and trust” [ha!])” – James Howard Kunstler

Martin Bormann Phone Home – “You have probably heard about – and may even know – people who refused to buy VWs and Mercedes-Benzes because of the dealings of those companies with the government of national socialist Germany during the years the national socialists ran Germany. Well, how about cars made under the auspices of the Chinese Communist Party? You know, Teslas. Word has just leached out that Elon Musk will be importing a Chinese executive to oversee the new Tesla plant in Austin, Texas. His name is Tom Zhu and The Street says the Texas gig may be just a stepping stone to his next gig as the future CEO of Tesla. But what about buying a Tesla built by a company that not only has direct ties to China but has a senior executive who is an emissary-agent of the Chinese Communist Party? All of this is interesting on a number of levels, ” – Eric Peters

The Season Finale Of The Hit Show ‘Proxy War’ – “Everyone’s talking about the hit series Proxy War, an astronomically high-budget production based on an actual military conflict whose season finale is set to air this month. Promotional materials for the episode hint at a heartwarming season wrap-up that’s sure to make wholesome viewing for the whole family, with series star Volodymyr Zelensky being awarded 2022 Person of the Year by Time Magazine. This will cap off a wild first season which has seen our hero appear on the cover of Vogue, deliver speeches for the World Economic Forum, the New York Stock Exchange, the Grammy Awards and numerous film festivals, as well as having high-profile meetings with celebrity actors and rock stars.” – Caitlin Johnstone

Jump the Curb – “The Supreme Court is the largest threat to the republic. The corrupt on the court, those who do not have the intellect, the honor or the desire to serve the public should not be there, deciding cases about a constitution they don’t believe in, care about or have one instinct to uphold. The politics are rigged, the military’s woke, the opposition party’s an illusion, the police don’t enforce the law, in fact, no one is enforcing the laws that need it, but minor transgressions are prosecuted with deadly force and life sentences. The social media are teamed up the the FBI to rig elections and the corporations like FedEx and UPS are feeding gun sales info to the ATF. What was that definition of fascism? When government and business collude against the people? Huh. When the enemy has captured every avenue of power, one must jump the curb and that’s coming fast.” – T.L. Davis

The Twitter Files: Just the Beginning – “What pertains to Twitter is surely true at Google (therefore YouTube), Facebook (therefore Instagram), Microsoft (therefore LinkedIn), and even Amazon (many great books were blocked from publication and distribution). At this point, one would have to be completely blind about the reality of what we’ve dealt with for almost three years: in the name of virus control, the country, its laws and traditions, its liberties and rights, were taken over by a junta with different ideas. ” – Jeffrey A.

Biden Cared More About Pandering To Minorities Than Recovering A Jailed US Spy From Russia – “The US’ enduring national security interests were irreparably damaged by this deal, which makes it even more of a strategic success for Russia than most folks realize. The latest Russian-US prisoner swap that saw businessman Viktor Bout exchanged for basketball player Brittney Griner was a self-inflicted embarrassment for the Biden Administration. Instead of securing the release of convicted spy Paul Whelan, which would have helped restore confidence in America’s intelligence assets that their patron will always fight for their interests if they’re ever caught red-handed breaking the law like he was, it preferred cutting a deal over the release of a minor sports celebrity.” – Andrew Korybko

If Sinema chooses to caucus with Democrats then the Democrats will retain their 51-49 edge. If not, it’s back to 50-50. The Wall Street Journal reports Kyrsten Sinema Switches to Independent, Complicates Democratic Control of Senate” – Mish

Electric vehicles futile as a solution to ‘climate crisis’ – “The Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory recently released a study titled, “Assessment of Light-Duty Plug-in Electric Vehicles in the United States, 2010 – 2021,” which shows that in 2021, privately-owned plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and electric vehicles (EVs) “saved about 690 million gallons of gasoline.” However, that is a huge exaggeration because fossil fuels provide 61 percent of the electricity in the United States.” – Anthony Watts

BlackRock: Prepare For Recession “Unlike Any Other”… And What Worked Before “Won’t Work Now” – Tyler Durden

The Jobs “Boom” Isn’t So Hot When We Remember Nearly Six Million Men Are Missing from the Workforce – “Those who support the everything-is-great narrative have responded to the unimpressive employed-workers numbers by dismissing them as a result of workers retiring and other demographic changes. These explanations, however, require that we ignore the fact that millions of men age 25-54—that is, men of working age—have removed themselves from the workforce. When so many men—men who would have been in the workforce 20 or 30 years ago—aren’t even trying to get a job, this lowers the unemployment rate and makes total jobs numbers look more impressive. ” – Ryan McMaken

Inflation is the fourth horseman – “While rich countries can afford to pay more interest on their debts, at least for awhile, it’s the poorer countries that are suffering most. Developing-world economies that borrowed heavily in dollars when interest rates were low, are now facing a huge surge in refinancing costs. They are not only facing higher interest rates, but have to use more of their own currencies to buy dollars. The buck has been climbing on the back of six consecutive Federal Reserve interest rate increases. A wave of defaults across developing nations would have major implications for the global economy, just as Asian debt contagion in 1997 spread to Russia and Latin America.” – Richard Mills

Have You Ever Raided Your Retirement Account? – “For better or for worse, people’s retirements are predicated on the stock market. And, for some, this will lead to disappointment in their golden years. But what choice do they have? A regular savings account is continuously eroded by the Fed’s inflation. Social Security is technically insolvent. Property investing has its own drawbacks. Yet people must somehow save and grow wealth. Currently, the 401(k) is the primary retirement savings vehicle for most Americans. However, this shouldn’t be your only form of savings. You should also save, invest, and grow wealth outside of a 401(k). That way, if you have an emergency, and you need quick cash, you don’t need to tap your retirement savings.” – MN Gordon

Economic Turmoil Resulting in New Sound Money Allies, Initiatives – “Well, it was a week of generally positive action in precious metals prices, as gold and silver continue to consolidate their impressive late November gains. As of this Friday recording, the whole precious metals complex is up.” -Mike Gleason

Pop and Drop or Straight Down – “Short and sweet this week. We have the PPI on tap tomorrow (writing this on Thursday), the CPI on Monday, and the FOMC on Wednesday. If the PPI and/or the CPI come in higher than expected, the pullbacks in metals and miners will be in full swing and the DXY rallies. “If the PPI and/or the CPI come in lower than expected, then we should be a lock for 50bp, and up we go in both metals and miners to a higher high before the wave pullback begins. Either way, a pullback in the monetary metals is coming. – David Brady

This family is fighting back – “Family is sure Derek McIntosh, 41, died from Pfizer vaccine and they want people to know his story.” – Bill Rice, Jr.  – I REALIZE I LINKED THIS YESTERDAY, BUT I AM RE-LINKING IT. SOMETHING I HAVE NEVER DONE BEFORE. THIS STORY NEEDS TO GO VIRAL, JUST AS MANY OTHER STORIES JUST LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nuremberg, Forgotten – ” trials were held in Nuremberg, where many “Nazis” were found guilty of moral crimes, having “followed orders.” That is to say, for following – and enforcing – the law, as it was in “Nazi” Germany. This was not considered exculpatory, then. Why then is it, now? Hundreds of millions of Americans were simply ordered to close the doors to their businesses – without any due process of law and no compensation for their losses. Many owners of these businesses ended up having to close the doors to their businesses permanently. Those who attempted to keep them open – so as to avoid being forced out of business – were forced to close them, by enforcers who were just following orders. Such enforcement continues, too ” – Eric Peters

Collins has previously called for COVID-19 “conspiracy theorists” to be “brought to justice” for opposing COVID-19 vaccines, and he is the brainchild behind the Biologics project to get as many Christian leaders and organizations to promote the COVID-19 shots as possible.” – Brian Shilhavy

We’ve Reached A Tipping Point – “If you had to describe the mood of the nation in one word, what would it be? How about “Rage”? Since the beginning of the (alleged) ‘pandemic’ through the deafening implosion of America’s small businesses, the near eradication of social comity to the rupturing of family ties, all done in your face with the iron fist of government’s tyrannical abuse of power, Americans have become permanently pissed off. The venom springs from a deep well of frustration, first with themselves for not catching on to the con earlier. Add the resentment from the lingering tyranny of unconstitutional mandates, lockdowns, closings, and unscientific restrictions now proven to have been deadly deceptions. The list of government lies is too long for this space (time). What does it mean to have a country when the government itself is lawless and corrupt? Based on objective analysis, the wait is over: it’s fair to say “We’re there”. So what comes next? Better come up with some answers – unless you’ve acquired a taste for boiled frog.” – Brian Wilson

The Student Murders in Idaho Highlight the Unimpressive Police Record on Violent Crime – “It’s been three weeks since four students at the University of Idaho were stabbed to death at a home in Moscow, Idaho, and law enforcement officers say they have no suspect. The investigation has also been marred by alarmingly incoherent attempts to address public safety in the community following the homicides. Immediately after the homicide took place, for instance, police spokesmen confidently claimed the public was not at risk, even though the killer or killers were at large.” – Ryan McMaken

Oh Look, A Clown President BeClowns Himself. Again. – “So we, as Americans, have allowed a basketball player who willingly, knowingly and intentionally brought illegal drugs into another country (she admitted to that at her trial) and was prosecuted for doing so to be traded back to us in exchange for a man who dealt weapons that actually killed people in terrorist strikes, including Americans. Never mind that Griner never met an opportunity to bag on the United States as a “terrible” country that she would not take up and celebrate — right up until she got busted for breaking the law in Russia, and then of course the US should come save her.” – Karl Denninger

President Biden’s Thoughts on Gun Control Require Retraction from WH – “Ban ‘Em All. Fast forward a couple years and the president expanded his wish list of banned firearms to include one of the most popular selling handgun calibers among law-abiding firearm owners – the 9mm. “The idea you need a weapon that can have the ability to fire 20, 30, 40, 50, 120 shots from that weapon, whether it’s a 9 mm pistol or whether it’s a rifle, is ridiculous,” President Biden told supporters. “I’m continuing to push to eliminate the sale of those things.” The truth is it’s the same one-trigger-pull, one-fire technology that’s been around for more than a century. Whether a handgun, a rifle or even several varieties of hunting and recreational shotguns. It’s the same definition trouble President Biden’s failed Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) director nominee and gun control lobbyist David Chipman fumbled through during his confirmation hearing when he struggled to answer the question before finally admitting, “Senator, there’s no way I could define an assault weapon.” President Biden can’t define it. The White House can’t define it. And Congressional Democrats who continue to push for stricter gun control can’t define it either.” – Larry Keane–

Did he get a lot of money from the open border trade and use it to buy his way out of prison? Bottom line here is that there are too many questions here to just let this matter go. Maybe there’s a completely legitimate explanation. But based on the prison authorities’ evasions to the New York Post, it’s funny stuff that they don’t want to tell us.” – Monica Showalter  – MAYBE HE PAID THE BIG GUY 10% HE SEEMS NOT TO CARE ABOUT ALL THE ILLEGAL CRIMINALS COMING INTO THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!

FBI Agent Testimony: Warnings of a “hack and leak” ahead of the Hunter Biden revelations – “Analyzing the deposition of FBI Agent Francis Chan. The importance of SSA Chan shouldn’t be understated.

It was Chan who has been reported to have had “weekly meetings with major social media companies to warn against Russian disinformation attempts ahead of the 2020 election.” Chan’s testimony provides insight into these efforts.” – Techno Fog

Europe’s Energy Crisis Is Reshaping Geopolitics – “Europe’s energy crisis is about far more than just energy. It’s also the impetus for a major geopolitical reconfiguration at a global scale. No one knows exactly what the world’s energy and political landscapes will look like when the dust settles (which, by the way, will be years from now)” – Haley Zaremba

Britain’s Winter Of Discontent Masks A Larger Food Insecurity Threat – “Food Price Inflation Is A Problem. Possible Food Insecurity Is A Crisis” – Peter Nayland Kust

EU’s Oil Price Cap Creates a Price Cap… on Stupidity – “By believing they can pressure suppliers into not hauling Russian oil lest they run afoul of the sanctions that support the price cap, they believe they can take only Russian oil off the market for the long run. Because of the way oil is actually traded in the real world, versus the way it trades in Janet Yellen’s head, this policy is actually much harder to implement than it actually looks. You don’t buy oil at the crude oil counter at Target or Wal-Mart. There isn’t a price tag you can look at and say yes or no too.” – Tom Luongo

‘Kiss my foot, O lowly infidel!’ – “Muslims are at it again — forcing the despised other, in this case, Jews, to kiss their feet. This is hardly the first incident of its kind in the modern era. Nor is this despicable phenomenon limited to the Middle East. Nor is the ultimate source of Muslims forcing infidels to kiss their feet as well as other degrading measures a byproduct of Muslim “grievances” — in this case, the Arab-Israeli conflict. After all, this form of abject obeisance is evident all throughout Islamic history. Muslims have long forced non-Muslims under their power to kiss their feet, both figuratively and literally, today, the man who holds an office that for centuries sponsored Europe’s staunch resistance to Islam — the Catholic pope — willingly prostrates himself before and kisses Muslim feet.” – Raymond Ibrahim

Russia’s mega gas pipeline to China nearly complete – Xinhua – “Work on a key section is reportedly finished” – RT

We Must Not Forget the U.S. War on Afghanistan – “When the Pentagon used NATO to provoke Russia into invading Ukraine, it had to know that one of the great benefits to such an invasion would be that it would enrich U.S. weapons manufacturers, who, of course, are an important, integral, and loyal part of America’s national-security state form of governmental structure. And sure enough, those weapons manufacturers now have a lot to be grateful for. But the Russian invasion of Ukraine had had another beneficiary — the Pentagon itself. Thanks to the crisis in Ukraine, the entire Afghanistan misadventure has been relegated to a memory black hole.” – Jacob G. Hornberger

 

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

The Mother of All Crashes Is Coming in April 2023 – “Here’s some free advice most people learn the hard way: the more your financial future depends on hope, rather than basic economic principles, the more likely it is to disappoint you. The fundamental forces that make markets, supply and demand, debt and credit, money velocity and inflation – these cannot be ignored. If the system is out of balance, it will fall apart and there’s nothing anyone, including central banks, can do about it. (In fact, there are times when they deliberately engineer collapse – though they don’t call it that.) This is the situation we are currently in today as 2022 comes to a close. The Fed is in the midst of a rather aggressive rate hike schedule, trying to wrestle today’s inflationary crisis into submission. The absurd part of this whole thing? Today’s inflation was deliberately created by the Fed, through years of fiat stimulus measures. It’s sort of like the plot of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. The brilliant scientist creates a masterpiece – a living, breathing superhuman! But the creature doesn’t follow its master’s orders, so he spends the rest of the book trying to kill it.” – Brandon Smith  – ANOTHER GOOD READ FROM BRANDON AS USUAL!!!!

Do You Believe In Shortages?

Plus, I’ve been known to eat an orange from time to time, so there’s that too. Those “tight” supplies will “persist”, huh? Perhaps in some less fortunate parts of the world, but the last time I checked, oranges were the primary ingredient in orange juice, and in my direct, recent personal experience, which spanned the generally Eastern half of the United States, not only is there no shortage of oranges, but real-world orange prices are not only stable but currently falling across the board.” – Paul “Half Dollar” Eberhart

Why real assets are better at protecting wealth than financial assets – “The disadvantage of real assets is they are less liquid than financial assets. They take longer to sell and have higher transaction fees, carrying costs and storage costs. (e.g. bullion) However, their main advantage over financial assets is they are more stable. Inflation, changes in currency values, and other macro-economic factors affect real assets less than financial assets. This makes them good investments during periods of high inflation. In addition, cash flow from real assets like real estate can provide predictable income streams for investors,” – Richard Mills

Depopulation and Democide at Every Turn: This Is the Planned Future You Have Voluntarily Accepted – “It is a sad state of affairs when one considers that the 21st century will most assuredly dwarf the 20th century in deaths at the hands of the governments and the ruling monsters who control those governments. It will get much worse in my opinion in the future, although hiding deaths behind the cloak of lies concerning fake viruses, bioweapon injections, and other poisons, with the many other accompanying causes of state murders, will not likely be reported as democide. In this century, billions instead of millions could die at the hands of tyrants.” – Gary D. Barnett

This family is fighting back – “Family is sure Derek McIntosh, 41, died from Pfizer vaccine and they want people to know his story. Derek McIntosh didn’t want to get vaccinated. However, as a single father raising a 17-year-old son, he needed a job and an income and his employer (Kurt Manufacturing) had mandated the vaccine for employees. Kurt Manufacturing has several contracts with the U.S. government. The federal government mandated that any company that has government contracts must have 100 percent of its employees vaccinated by January 10th, 2022. (Just two weeks after Derek’s vaccination, the Supreme Court ruled this mandate was illegal).” – Bill Rice, Jr.

Sam Bankman-Fried and the Missing Billions for Pandemic Planning – “What does this 30-year-old computer guy know about infectious disease? No more than Bill Gates did when he began his malanthropic crusade through the universities, journals, and nonprofits and imposed his lockdown-and-vaccinate ideology on them, thus compromising a whole generation of infectious-disease scientists. Bankman-Fried saw how much influence this bought Gates and decided to replicate the experience in a mere few years in the midst of a pandemic. In this decade and a half of easy money, a whole class of people has risen to the top of the cultural echelon not by productive labor but by educational credentials and being part of the corporate float. They have come to believe that the system makes sense simply because it has benefited them. This is why they so gladly took to pandemic controls when they were at their height. ” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

 CDC FAKES High Flu Numbers in the US to Scare Us into Taking Flu Vaccines – “The CDC and the press want us to believe that we are in the midst of a “flu emergency.” The scary dark-colored flu map of the 2022-23 season, compared to previous seasons, seems to be clear proof of the flu nightmare unfolding in the USA right now.

Just as the CDC came up with the term “Long COVID” to explain lingering disabilities and injuries that are putting pressure on the medical system and insurance industry now economists have come up with a similar term: “Long Social Distancing.” “You can’t make this stuff up folks! It is unbelievable the lengths they will go to in order NOT to discuss the impacts the COVID vaccines have had on the labor force. – Brian Shilhavy  – CALL  IT ANYTHING BUT WHAT IT IS!!!!

The Constitution Has Already Been Terminated – “If there is one point on which there should be no political parsing, no legal jockeying, and no disagreement, it is this: for anyone to advocate terminating or suspending the Constitution is tantamount to a declaration of war against the founding principles of our representative government and the rule of law. Then again, one could well make the case that the Constitution has already been terminated after years on life support, given the extent to which the safeguards enshrined in the Bill of Rights—adopted 231 years ago as a means of protecting the people against government overreach and abuse—have been steadily chipped away at, undermined, eroded, whittled down, and generally discarded with the support of Congress, the White House, and the courts.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

“Fool Me Once . . . ” Why the Public is Not Buying the Latest Media Campaign Against Twitter – “After Twitter employed one of the most extensive censorship systems in history to prevent people from reading opposing views on subjects from Covid to climate change, media figures are now insisting that the public should really not be interested. The public, however, is not buying it. They are buying Twitter. With users signing up to Twitter in record numbers” – Jonathan Turley

EU Just Woke Up and Realised It Was America’s Bitch. Reset Needed Claims Macron – “Remarkably, the EU is beginning to wake up and realise not only that it is more servile to the U.S. than ever before, but in fact the relationship has reached farcical levels of master and slave since the Ukraine war started. And yet, despite the EU’s chief diplomat recently refusing to be drawn into a conflict scenario with China and MEPs pathetically voting to deem Russia a terrorist state, it was not the EU which came to the conclusion. It was the French president Emmanuel Macron.” – Martin Jay

Americans Dumbed Down on Russia – “On December 5, 2017, Shawn Henry, head of the cyber security firm CrowdStrike, testified to the House Intelligence Committee that there was no technical evidence that Russia hacked the DNC emails that WikiLeaks published in July 2016. Why are some of you readers just now learning about this – five years after that testimony? Short answer: Adam Schiff (D, CA), chair of the House Intelligence Committee was able to keep Henry’s unclassified testimony secret from Dec. 5, 2017 until May 7, 2020, when he was forced to release it. Schiff gave the silencer-baton to friends in the corporate media, who have now suppressed Shawn Henry’s testimony for longer than even Schiff could.” – Ray McGovern
