NEWS (VIRUS EDITION )

The latest Covid variant is 1.5 times more contagious than omicron and already circulating in almost half of U.S. states – “The omicron subvariant, known as BA.2, is 1.5 times more transmissible than the original omicron strain, according to Danish scientists.” – Spencer Kimball  – WELL, IT’S OBVIOUS THAT ORIGINAL OMICRON MUST BE ABOUT DONE, BECAUSE THEY ARE AMPING UP THE NEW SCARIANT ONCE AGAIN. KIND OF LIKE CLOCKWORK. AND HOW CAN IT BE 1.5X MORE TRANSMISSIBLE THAN THE FIRST OMICRON VARIANT, WHICH WAS MORE TRANSMISSIBLE THAN DELTA, WHICH WAS MORE TRANSMISSIBLE THAN THE ORIGINAL COVID, AND EVERYONE WAS SUPPOSE TO GET IT? IF EVERYONE WAS SUPPOSE TO GET THE ORIGINAL OMICRON, THAT MADE IT 100% TRANSMISSIBLE. YOU CAN’T GET MORE THAN 100%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Truth or Covid? – “Remember the good old days at the beginning of the COVID coup – before the new dogmas started to tangle themselves into self-contradictory knots? Back then, if you wanted to know what to think, the Infallible Ones always had simple answers. What was the enemy? A virus called SARS-CoV-2. Where did it come from? Chinese bats and pangolins. When would it end? After a few weeks of “lockdown” and the introduction of “vaccines.” How did you protect yourself from it in the meantime? By isolating yourself at home, wearing a muzzle, obsessively washing your hands, leaving your shoes outside the door, avoiding other human beings, scrubbing the walls and counters – above all, by obeying whatever orders the Infallible Ones gave you. And if you didn’t obey? You would die.” – Michael Lesher

CNN Loves Weathervane Pandemic Pundits – “What is a weathervane? You will recognize them— they are frequently on TV news giving updates on the pandemic. These are people in biomedicine, who may even have fancy titles and lofty ranks, and they are good at averaging what people think, and offering that point of view.” -Vinay Prasad MD MPH

Thinking Points Memo, Jan. 29, 2022 – “Biden spent all of his political capital going after the dozen people who were correct early on about the pandemic. And now he’s 20 points underwater. Funny how that works. Apparently Surgeon General Vivek Murthy’s entire job is to tell social media companies to censor the truth about the pandemic. The NY Times did not even mention Murthy in their long article on Biden’s First Pandemic Year and he is not listed as a member the six-person team that makes decisions about coronavirus. It speaks volumes that the top doctor in the country spends all of his time covering up the crimes of the cartel.” – Toby Rogers  – GREAT POINTS ON COVID AND MORE FROM TOBY!!!!

HOWEVER HE FAILS TO MENTION HOW MANY IMMUNIZATIONS TOOK PLACE IN ALL THOSE 31 YEARS IN COMPARISON TO ONE YEAR OF THE COVID VACCINES. A 15,000% INCREASE IN JABS RECEIVED BECAUSE EVERYONE IS GETTING A SHOT THAT THEY WOULDN’T NORMALLY GET COULD ALSO CAUSE A 15,000% INCREASE IN HEART DISEASE AS WELL!!!!

The Globalist Reset Agenda Has Failed – Is Ukraine Plan B? – “There are people in the liberty movement that attribute FAR too much intelligence to the global power elites, to the point that they seem to think the globalists are always planning “ten steps ahead.” The funny thing about planning ten steps ahead though is that if anything goes wrong with steps 1-9 then getting to step number 10 will be impossible and you just wasted a whole lot of energy on an elaborate plan that ended up going nowhere. The globalists are NOT the smartest people around; not even close. They aren’t even all that effective when their plans actually function and there are no surprises. Their ideas fail constantly. There is only one reason that centralizing criminals have not been brought down, and that is because no one has ever targeted them directly.” – Brandon Smith

Horseshoe theory and the politics of lizard people – “Implications on what we face and how we must respond. It’s always going to be lizard people ruling you because the lizard people of the far right and far left have FAR more in common with one another than they ever will with you.

And their interests are not in concordance with your liberty.” – El Gato Malo  – VERY GOOD ARTICLE!!!!!!!!

It Takes A Touch Of Madness – “It takes a touch of madness to take seriously the possibility that your entire society is insane. That’s why devoted critics of the oligarchic empire are often a bit odd; something in them was driven to wade into waters that most people aren’t psychologically prepared to enter. It’s not that questioning the status quo is madness; just the opposite: it’s that “Maybe everything I’ve been taught is a lie and everyone I know is wrong and all the information I’m getting is designed to serve the powerful?”” – Caitlin Johnstone  – MORE GOOD OBSERVATIONS FROM CAITLIN!!!!!

An Existential Threat To Humanity? – “Unfortunately, humility is in very short supply in our day and time. Sadly, this is particularly true in our scientific community. Over the past two years, a pompous blowhard named Anthony Fauci has become the most famous scientist in the entire world, and even though he has been exposed as a total fraud he is more pompous than ever and he is still worshipped by millions. Unfortunately, he is far from alone. Because of what I do, I have to deal with pompous blowhards like Dr. Fauci all the time. These “geniuses” think that they have everything figured out, but of course they don’t. None of us do. We are literally surrounded by unanswerable questions and great mysteries that have gone unsolved for thousands of years.” – Michael Snyder

The elites’ morally obscene response to the Canadian trucker convoy – “In both Canada and America, there’s a deep fear that the Canadian truckers are going to be the first crack in the dam of their virtually unlimited power.” – Andrea Widburg

Greedy Corporations and Inflation – “The Biden administration is taking credit for the stimulus payments. They should also accept blame for inflation. Instead, they blame greedy corporations for raising prices. These price increases are supposed to reflect monopoly power that the corporations have. The problem with this story is that corporations with monopoly power would have raised their prices already. Why wait? Firms raise their prices once and for all when they have less competition. They will not raise their prices gradually over months or years. Antitrust actions against supposedly greedy corporations will not reduce inflation.” – Gerald P. Dwyer

Leaders And Their Blind Followers – “A healthy society is one in which their are fewer blind followers and more independent thinkers. The question is, can the blind be healed to see again?” – Ken Jorgustin

“It Strips You of Your Dignity, Dammit!” – Joe Biden Screams About Families Not Affording Insulin After He Raised the Prices (Video) – “Don’t expect this to make any headlines in the fake news. Joe Biden started screaming about families who can’t afford insulin this week. In one of his first acts as president, Joe Biden ended President Trump’s policy reducing medical costs on insulin back on January 24, 2021. His handlers need to do a better job.” – Jim Hoft  – WELL, YOU KNOW. JOE PROBABLY FORGOT HE DID THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dr. Evil gets out his checkbook – “George Soros is back, and he’s gotten out his checkbook. But now the public does know. It knows it by the gamy fraud-filled elections conducted by Soros-backed secretaries of state, the surreal statements from legislators such as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the bizarre pronuncimentos from the executive branch, Joe Biden and all his government agencies. It knows it above all by the sudden wave of crime in the streets, brought on by Soros-backed Black Lives Matter rioting and Soros-bankrolled district attorneys. Voters are furious about this and looking for a cause and finding one with the name George Soros on it.” – Monica Showalter

WHO director thanks Neil Young for pulling his songs off Spotify over Joe Rogan’s podcast – Carlos Garcia

Don’t Rent Anything You Actually Want – “Oh I’ll just buy a subscription to for the cost of a couple of coffees at burnt-bean emporium! Sure you will. Which sounds great, right up until the actual owner of the thing gets pissed at someone else and screws you. Oh, you have a Netflix or Spotify subscription? That’s nice. What happens when someone starts acting like a two year old and has a pissing match with someone else — and thinks they have the right to force Spotify, or Netflix, to do what they want and silence music, speech or even video content they don’t like? In other words they are pissed off at what someone did so they suddenly believe they have the right to screw you even though you’re not a party to whatever it is they’re cranked off about.” – Karl Denninger  – GOOD POINT FROM KARL!!!!

The Cold War Racket Never Ended for the U.S. – “There is something important to recognize about the Cold War: It was not ended by the U.S. government. Instead, it was ended by the Soviet Union. If it had been up to the U.S. national-security establishment, the Cold War would have gone on forever because it is the best racket in U.S. history, one that continually expanded the tax-funded largess, power, and influence of the Pentagon, the CIA, and the NSA. In a sense, the U.S. national-security establishment considered the Soviet Union’s unilateral decision to end the Cold War a betrayal. The Soviets weren’t supposed to do that” – Jacob G. Hornberger

How to Create a Barter Network After the SHTF – “After society crumbles, the ability to use the fiat currency which was in use before vanishes. Likewise, when politicians decide that certain people no longer should be able to purchase food, medicine, or healthcare, the ability to use the fiat currency which was previously stored becomes much more difficult. It’s in times like these that the ability to create a barter network matters. What does this entail?” – J.G. Martinez D

Consumer Sentiment Begins 2022 with a Drop – Robert Hughes

Missing the forest for the tree – “The markets are jittery because they are carrying a huge burden of stocks with valuations that are beyond comprehension and common sense. They have been pumped up by cheap money for years, even before the pandemic, even though the covid “rescue” packages seriously accelerated the bubble formation. This fresh “fuel” certainly helped prolong the ride. Many mainstream analysts took this to mean that the “rescue” remedies had worked and that the “gravity-defying, eternal uptrend” was actually a realistic concept that investors should embrace. This sort of wishful thinking tricked even seasoned investors into really believing that it would all be “happily ever after” post-pandemic. ” – Claudio Grass

The CBDC proposition is being sold to us by the central banks as keeping up with the times and taking advantage of the opportunities presented by new technologies to evolve payment systems. The Bank for International Settlements has been coordinating research into CBDCs, and this article gives a brief description of how the BIS and its committee members sees them evolving.” – Alasdair Macleod

New wave of Stasi censorship likely reveals the next phase of Pharma’s playbook – “Pfizer and Moderna are going to ask the FDA & CDC to grandfather in their reformulated coronavirus vaccines with almost no data.

Embalmers Find Veins & Arteries Filled with Never Before Seen Rubbery Clots – “This is the real deal. Funeral Director and embalmer Richard Hirschman reveals, for the first time ever, arteries and veins filled with unnatural blood clot combinations with strange fibrous materials that are completely filling the vascular system. He has gone from seeing 50% of his embalmed cases with these types of blockages rise to almost 80%. It only started happening after the vaccines were rolled out. This doesn’t happen to everyone. Only those who die after vaccination. So he can tell who was vaccinated.” – Steve Kirsch

I see we have reached the “I’d better hide” stage of the pandemic… – ” Well, that’s one way to “duck the trucks” isn’t it?” – El Gato Malo

Justin Trudeau Ducks the Great Trucker Revolt – “The resistance reveals itself always in unexpected ways. As I type, thousands of truckers (numbers are in flux and are in dispute) are part of a 50-mile-long convoy in Canada, headed to the capital city of Ottawa in protest against an egregious vaccine mandate imposed by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The triple-vaccinated Trudeau, meanwhile, has decided that he has to go into deep hiding because he was exposed to Covid. A clean, ruling-class, fit, and fashionable lefty like him cannot be expected to face such a pathogen directly. As a member of the vanguard of the lockdown elite, he must never take risks (however small) and must keep himself safe. It is merely a matter of coincidence that he will be locked away in hiding as the truckers arrive together with hundreds of thousands of citizens who are fed up with being treated like lab rats.” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

Old Man, Look at Your Life… – “Rock’n’roller Neil Young’s conniption over having to share the Spotify platform with Joe Rogan affords a glimpse into the glutenous mire that is a mind bethinking itself “progressive” these drear days of American unraveling. It’s worth paying attention to just how disordered Mr. Young’s thinking is because it summarizes everything that has gone awry on the political Left: He is wrong two ways: 1) morally, and 2) on the facts of the matter — which is as wrong as you can be. If I remember correctly (cuz I was there) the youth movement of the 1960s was all about freedom to say pretty much anything, except yell “fire” in a crowded theater — based on the idea that ordinary people were equipped to sort out the truth. During the War in Vietnam, we hippies were especially averse to the official lying that emanated from the Department of Defense, the FBI, the CIA, and the White House” – James Howard Kunstler  – MR. KUNSTLER, BRENDAN, AND THE GOOD CITIZEN ON NEIL YOUNG. ALL GOOD READS. I MAY HAVE OVER DONE IT. BUT, NEIL, YOU LET US DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hippies for censorship – “Neil Young’s grumpy war on Joe Rogan is a betrayal of everything he once stood for. From protest singer to agitator for capitalist censorship? What a fall. Young is laying waste to his own free-wheelin’, speech-defendin’ counter-authoritarian personal history by demanding the expulsion of Rogan from Spotify in the same way horrified pink-rinsed ladies once demanded the censorship of hippy revolt. (‘Ohio’, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young’s song about Kent State, was banned by numerous radio stations in 1970 for being anti-Nixon.)” – Brendan O’Neill

Keep On Rockin’ In The Twilight Zone – “They were never who you thought they were, or who they thought they were. Imagine thinking because you had a few hit songs fifty years ago that you still had the power to cancel the largest podcaster in the world with over a hundred million listeners because you’re stupid enough to watch NPR and CNN and think that podcaster is disseminating “misinformation”. It takes a special level of delusion to arrive at this crossroads, willing to to die on a big pharma/legacy media hill of propaganda and censorship while still believing you’re against “the man” and fighting “the system”.” – Good Citizen

The Folly of Pandemic Censorship – “As the latest anti-Substack campaign shows, more and more people are forgetting why free speech works. Earlier this week, in the latest in a series of scolding campaigns, a Britain-based group called the Center for Countering Digital Hate gave a sneak peek at a research report on Substack to The Guardian and The Washington Post. Both outlets came out with their scare pieces this morning.” – Matt Taibbi

Biden Gaslighting on Economy Hits New Heights With Rigged Chart – “On Thursday, Joe Biden tried to sell the claim that this was the strongest year for economic growth since 1984.

Digital IDs could easily turn into a dystopian social credit system – “The idea of a digital identity and wallet for citizens residing within the European Union may date back to 2020, but pandemic-era restrictions have shown the extent to which governments can shut off access to everyday life, should they so choose – and with ever-changing criteria that can be difficult to appeal when something goes wrong.

Biden Spits on Putin’s Request for Security – “If the US and NATO are allowed to pursue their present course of action, Russian cities and towns will be within 7 to 10 minutes of nuclear missiles located in nearby Romania and Poland. Russia’s are being asked to live with a nuclear dagger pointed at their throats. This is Biden’s idea of global security. Is it any wonder why Putin does not agree?” – Mike Whitney

Washington’s Rejection of Russia’s Security Proposal Is a Bad Decision – “As expected, Washington and its NATO arm have rejected the Kremlin’s joint security proposal, preferring dire consequences to peace. By rejecting the Kremlin’s proposal, Washington and the Europeans have told the Kremlin that Washington intends to continue its aggressive policy of placing NATO and US missile bases on Russia’s borders and arming Ukraine for attack on Donbass. The rejection also tells Moscow that Ukraine and Georgia, formerly constituent parts of Russia broken off during the period of Russian weakness following the collapse of the Soviet government, remain candidates for NATO Membership despite the Kremlin’s statement that Russia will permit no such membership.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Fed Still Pouring Gas on the Inflation Fire; What Happens When It Tries to Stop? – “What exactly do they talk about when they meet, sports? We’re screwed and they know it.”” – Michael Maharrey

Washington Still Won’t Admit the Real Cause of Price Inflation – “If a politician has no clue about what causes price inflation, she probably isn’t going to have any idea about how to fix the problem. This is your brain on fiat monetary systems and central banking: price inflation is caused by everything except for printing loads of new money. If Senator Warren believes that prices increase because of the greed of price-gouging companies, does she believe that when prices fall, it is the result of corporate benevolence? Businesses obviously have an incentive to contain their costs. But when they have to pay more for raw materials, transportation, and labor, they have no choice but to pass those rising costs on to customers. Supply chain disruptions and other factors can contribute to rising retail prices in specific categories. The oversupply of the currency itself, however, is at the root of the inflation problem. Too many dollars chasing too few goods translates into broadly rising price levels. The White House doesn’t seem to grasp this basic lesson either.” – Jp Cortez

As explained in the brief opposing the FDA’s request, the FDA’s defense effectively amounts to claiming that the 11 document reviewers it has already assigned and the 17 additional reviewers being onboarded are only capable of reading at the speed of preschoolers. ” – Aaron Siri

Unvaxxed Canadians Denied Access To Walmart – “On Monday, Quebec’s draconian new vaccine passport law for unvaccinated people went into effect. Unvaxxed people will be denied entry to big-box retailers unless they shop for food or visit the pharmacy. Even then, they will be under the supervision of an employee (to make sure they don’t buy anything else).” – Tyler Durden  – THIS IS JUST TOO IGNORANT TO EVEN FATHOM.  WHAT KIND OF SCIENCE WAS USED THAT ALLOWS A CERTAIN TYPE OF PERSON TO GO INTO PART OF A STORE BUT NOT THE REST OF THE STORE. THIS IS BESIDE THE FACT THAT THE VACCINATED ARE GETTING THE SO-CALLED OMICRON VARIANT AT A MUCH HIGHER RATE. SHOULD BE THE OTHER WAY AROUND: PASSPORTS FOR THE UNVACCINATED AND QUARANTINE FOR THE VACCINATED!!!!!

Fauci Puts Two-Year-Olds on Notice: Prepare for Multiple Doses of the COVID Vaccine – Alex Parker

Fraudster Fauci Wants the Health of Young Children Destroyed – “At a Wednesday press briefing, Fauci expressed contempt for the health and well-being of a generation of young children. While drug kingpin Pfizer’s (likely rigged) trials are underway for mass-jabbing children aged-6 months to age-4 with health-destroying mRNA toxins, Fauci expressed support for a 3-kill shot regime following virtually certain rubber-stamp FDA approval ahead. Ignoring irreparable harm to countless millions already in the US/West and elsewhere, he turned truth on its head about the Pharma-controlled agency,” – Stephen Lendman

Russia doubles down on omicron scam – “A never-ending story. Just like everywhere else in the world, in Russia anyone with cold-like symptoms is assumed to be a filthy leper. This is why Russian authorities are peddling unproven genetic slurries, closing down businesses, and barring children from receiving routine medical care—everything possible is being done to ensure no one suffers from cold-like symptoms.” – Edward Slavsquat

Doctor’s Organization Has Treated Over 150,000 COVID-19 Patients With 99.99 Percent Survival – “Early Treatment Works, Period. “We have a team of volunteer free doctors that donate their time to help treat these patients that come to us,” Dr. Ben Marble, the founder of myfreedoctor.com, an online medical consultation service, said at a roundtable discussion hosted by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) on Jan. 24. Marble says that he and his small team of volunteer doctors prescribe [Dr. Peter] McCullough’s treatment protocol, which consists of hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, monoclonal antibodies, prednisone, and other low-cost generic drugs. They also prescribe vitamins D and C, and zinc.” – Meiling Lee

Canada: the talking points vs the reality – “There seems to be some divergence in between the “official narrative” in canada and what is really going on on the ground. Let’s start with Trudeau:Prime Minister Trudeau says the “small, fringe minority” on their way to Ottawa “hold unacceptable views” and are undermining the rights, freedoms and values of Canada. “Small, fringe minority.” This seems a pretty specious claim.” – El Gato Malo

The Government has isolated, purified, and sequenced Fear – “For near a century and a half since that day, governments and corporations have been trying to produce very large amounts of the fear liquid. Finally, in February, 2020, in an NIAID lab, under the direction of Anthony Fauci, Doctors Rachel Maddow and Anderson Cooper were able to synthesize the fear particle using blood obtained from several hosts of The View.” – Jon Rappoport

‘Could be credible’: Speculation ramps up that Harris could be Biden’s Supreme Court pick – Steven Nelson, Samuel Chamberlain and Bruce Golding

More Presidential Killings – “Secretly and quietly, the Biden administration has continued to use the killing machine crafted by President George W. Bush, expanded by President Barack Obama and employed from time to time by President Donald Trump. These presidents have used drones and other unmanned missiles and projectiles to target persons in foreign countries with which the United States is not at war.” – Andrew P. Napolitano  – WELL, BIDEN WAS SECOND IN COMMAND FOR THE GUY THAT SAID HE WAS PRETTY GOOD AT KILLING PEOPLE. COME TO THINK OF IT, MAYBE HE’S STILL IN CHARGE!!!!!!

Biden sets yet another record at the southern non-border – “Drowned out by all the other Team Biden disasters, the southern border remains porous: Last month was the worst December on record. A Customs and Border Protection reports 178,840 illegal migrants apprehended, beating the worst previous December by over 100,000. Biden breaks records every month, with apprehensions on track to reach 2 million in his first full year. You can see why they keep coming” – New York Post Editorial Board

Four Things That Suggest War with Russia Is Coming – “Things in Ukraine are still heating up, with some interesting recent developments the well-informed American should stay abreast of.” – Aden Tate

Removing Russia from SWIFT – The Nuclear Option – “Removing Russia from SWIFT would hurt its trading partners. First, it will spook the markets and the uncertainty will lead to volatility. International companies conducting business with Russia would be forced to halt many transactions. Investors may rush out of the ruble, disrupting international capital flows. The EU heavily relies on Russian energy and retaliatory measures could spell disaster. Russia has quietly been developing its own version of SWIFT since 2014 called the System for Transfer of Financial Messages, which now delivers around 20% of domestic transfers. However, the Kremlin will likely not accept removal from the SWIFT system as Iran did and this measure could very well be considered a declaration of war.” – Martin Armstrong

Russia and the West: Piercing the Fog of Hysteria – “The fatal mistake committed by Brussels in 2014 was to force Kiev to make an impossible choice between Europe and Russia. A specter haunts the collective West: total zombification, courtesy of an across-the-board 24/7 psy ops imprinting the inevitability of “Russian aggression”.” – Pepe Escobar

Why Putin Has Not Been Deterred – “Exasperated Americans fear Vladimir Putin is deterred neither by sanctions nor by arms sales but follows only his own sense of cost-to-benefit self-interest. The German and Turkish people like or trust Russia more than they do their own NATO patron, America.” – Victor Davis Hanson

Moscow to Washington: “Remove the Nukes on Our Doorstep and Stop the Eastward Push” – Mike Whitney

Biden’s “Minor Incursion” Remark Reveals A Lot About His Team’s Russia Strategy – “It’s clear that the Biden Administration remains divided over what to do but that some members within it are dangerously flirting with the possibility of provoking what they mistakenly think might be a ‘manageable crisis’ with Russia.” – Andrew Korybko

Putin Has Already Revealed That Russia Can Not Afford Not to Act – “The only question left is can anything that’s not war suffice?” – Marko Marjanović

America couldn’t defend Ukraine even if it wanted to – Scott Ritter

West Asia transforms: Twenty Arab states in China’s BRI sights – “‘A crisis is an opportunity riding the dangerous wind.’ So says a Chinese proverb, and nowhere is this truer than in crisis-ridden West Asia, now a major focus of Beijing’s BRI vision to bring infrastructure, connectivity and economic growth to this struggling region” – Cynthia Chung  – PEOPLE REALLY NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO CHINA’S BELT ROAD INITIATIVE. IT RARELY GETS COVERAGE IN THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA IN THE U.S.!!!!!

America’s Armed ‘Sentinel State’ Encirclement – “‘Encirclement’ and ‘containment’ effectively have become Biden’s default foreign policy, The key to China’s security riposte to the U.S. is linked to two words that go unstated in U.S. formal policy documents, but whose silent presence nevertheless suffuses and colour-washes the text of the 2022 National Defence Authorisation Act. What the earlier patchwork of U.S. China measures lacked, until now, has been an overarching plan for curbing China’s rise, and so ensuring America’s permanent supremacy in the Indo-Pacific region: “The authors of this year’s NDAA” however, “were remarkably focused on this deficiency, and several provisions of the bill are designed to provide just such a master plan”.” – Alastair Crooke

Two Shortages That Threaten To Absolutely Eviscerate The Global Economy In 2022 – Michael Snyder

Baseball’s Hall of Fame Has Become a Joke – “Did Barry Bonds juice? It sure seems like it. He had Hall of Fame skills as a rookie, but not the kind of power he showed when his size, including that of his head, swelled massively over one off season. Did the others juice? Maybe. But what they are alleged to have done wasn’t against the rules of baseball at the time. Should they be punished forever?” – Derek Hunter   – DON’T USUALLY HAVE MUCH SPORTS NEWS, BUT AS A KID IN THE EARLY 60S, I LOVED BASEBALL. DEREK MAKES AN EXCELLENT POINT HERE. LOVED HIS COMMENT ABOUT BONDS BECAUSE HE DID HAVE AN EGO. I REMEMBER SEEING HIM IN A PREGAME WARM-UP AND SOME KID ASKED HIM FOR AN AUTOGRAPH AND BOND’S REPLY WAS THAT THE KID COULD PURCHASE ONE ELSEWHERE AND WOULDN’T GIVE HIM ONE. I ALWAYS THOUGHT HE WAS A DICK AFTER THAT!!!!!!

Survival Gardening with David the Good Part One (VIDEO) – “We cover the priorities that help frame one’s approach to a survival garden. And while many people get caught up in different techniques and dogma, we stress the importance of just getting started, focusing on yield, and experimenting to see what works best where you are.” – Ice Age Farmer

The Best States To Outfox FEMA – “In my lifetime, I have seen the government’s massive increase of power. I went from not really understanding the government to looking at it as a legitimate threat to my way of life. There are three major threats that FEMA presents to preppers. These are probably not new to you. In fact, over the years, the executive powers of the government have grown out of control and now they can take almost unlimited action in an emergency.” – James Walton

ECONOMIC NEWS

STRONG PUTIN & WEAK BIDEN TO TRIGGER HISTORICAL WEALTH DESTRUCTION – “It seems that 2022 will be the year when the US Empire disintegrates faster than anyone could have imagined. Empires need strong leadership but electing a weak octogenarian president certainly fits the picture of a collapsing empire.” – Egon von Greyerz

Welcome To Fedestroika: Powell Now Has Just Two Choices – “The Fed appears to have just opted for ‘Fedrestroika’, which is going to cause lots of apparatchiks to get nervozny. “To paraphrase that old Soviet joke ‘They pretend to have inflation under control, and markets pretend to believe them.’”” – Michael Every

Contrary to High Priest Powell, the Economy is NOT Strong – “With rapt attention from all across the nation, the High Priest of Finance at the Federal Reserve took his position behind his presser pulpit. Biting his quivering lip again and again, he uttered his benediction over the US economy. He made sure to carefully speak the words I hear repeated across the nation like a mantra: “The Economy is Strong.” I especially hear the televangelist economic gurus of our time who worship at the door of the Fed’s ecclesiastical temple — the Eccles Building — say it ALL THE TIME. Unlike the worshipping crowd, I feel nauseated every time I hear people singing that tune from a sidewalk cafe as I walk by, from a radio program playing in my car, or from High Priest Powell, himself.” – David Haggith

Inflation Is The Kryptonite That Will End Our Decades-Long Monetary Policy Ponzi Scheme – “It means buckle your seatbelt Dorothy, because Kansas is going bye-bye.” – Quoth the Raven

Yields Spike, Stocks Dump, Futures Fall, Asia Sags, after Powell Explains How the Fed Will Crack Down on Inflation – “The balance sheet is “substantially larger than it needs to be,” and “there is a substantial amount of shrinkage to be done.” We’ll put some numbers to it.” – Wolf Richter

Is the Fed Delusional or a Big Pack of Liars? – “Let’s discuss Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s press conference following the January FOMC rate hike meeting.” – Mish

COMEX Silver and the GDX – “I thought it might be fun to write this week about something you may not have noticed. And what’s that? The curious yet almost 100% long-term correlation between the price of COMEX silver and the price of the popular gold mining share ETF with the symbol GDX. Now on the surface, you wouldn’t expect these two to be so closely correlated. And why would you?” – Craig Hemke

NEWS ( VIRUS EDITION )

CDC “Pivoting its language” on vaccination status – ” Moving forward people will need regular boosters to be “up to date”, & they won’t be using the term “fully vaccinated” anymore. (Side note here, but can we take a moment to appreciate the term “pivot the language”? That is some nice newspeak, beautiful. Up there alongside “enhanced interrogation”.) The use of the term “up to date” in place of “fully vaccinated” is likewise deliberately crafted political language, turning a hard-and-fast reality into an ever-extending continuum. Normalising the open-ended nature of the new “vaccinations”.” – Kit Knightly

The Scientific Misconduct Story Behind Ivermectin (VIDEO) – “December 3, 2021, TrialSite News interviewed Dr. Tess Laurie. In the interview, Laurie also discusses the general difficulty researchers have had, since the beginning, in getting papers published that support ivermectin. She admits her own team has downplayed the benefits by using extremely conservative analyses in an effort to get published. “It seems, if you tell it like it is, you are not going to get published because you might be accused of overstating your case. And if you understate it, you’re told there’s not enough evidence,” Laurie says. Strong Evidence for Ivermectin According to Laurie, the evidence for ivermectin in the treatment of COVID-19 is strong.” – Dr. Joseph Mercola  – GOOD ARTICLE AND MORE ABOUT IN THE NEXT LINK!!!!!

Plain burger: hold the virus pickles, they don’t exist Jan 26 by – “Shh. Shh. Stop saying the virus doesn’t exist. Why? Because… ONE: Let’s not get distracted by the virus question. We have to focus on knocking down the vaccine mandate.” – Jon Rappoport  – GOOD ONE FROM JON!!!!!!!

The problem with bougiecrats is that they just tick boxes, they don’t ever *think* – “Did Rochelle Walensky honestly not know the rate at which this virus was mutating? It sounds like they never contemplated the possibility that the vaccines might fail. That also likely means that Walensky has no idea what antibody dependent enhancement is, why it’s a problem, nor does she know how to spot antibody dependent enhancement if it’s happening in the population. Bougiecrats just execute the plan. They do not think. They just tick boxes. That is not what the U.S. needs in the midst of this crisis. Fauci is a malevolent force inside the government and he is wrong about everything” – Toby Rogers

Philosophical Musings of this Writer in this Time of Traumatic Sophistry – “What is the answer; I do not know? Why is man so terribly bent on his own destruction; I do not know? Why does man’s inhumanity to man forever subsist; I do not know? I do know that for inner peace and tranquility to exist, and therefore for humanity to peacefully exist together, that one must act alone, meaning all should act alone as individuals in favor of harmony, love, and non-aggression. This means that the ‘State’ should end, and the individual should reign.” – Gary D. Barnett

Authoritarian Madness: The Slippery Slope from Lockdowns to Concentration Camps – “The discord is getting more discordant by the day. Just recently, for instance, the Salt Lake Tribune Editorial Board suggested that government officials should mandate mass vaccinations and deploy the National Guard “to ensure that people without proof of vaccination would not be allowed, well, anywhere.” In other words, lock up the unvaccinated and use the military to determine who gets to be “free.” These tactics have been used before. For a glimpse at what the future might look like if such a policy were to be enforced, look beyond America’s borders.” – John W. Whitehead & Nisha Whitehead  – ANOTHER GOOD ONE FROM JOHN AND NISHA!!!!!!!

Screw Your Freedoms – “Arnold Schwarzenegger made news a few months back when he angrily denounced people who objected to being “locked down” like convicted criminals for health crimes they’d never committed. Not unlike millions of people in Arnold’s Austrian homeland who were treated similarly on account of the supposed threat to the health of the volk they presented. Screw your freedoms, the aging bodybuilder growled. It’s a sad thing – for those of us who made the mistake of admiring Arnold once-upon-a-time as a guy we were led to believe valued our freedom. As opposed to just his. He rode this image to stardom – and into the California governor’s mansion.” – Eric Peters

The Reactionary Political Ethos of Lockdowns and Mandates – “The national press barely covered the anti-mandate, anti-lockdown rally in D.C (January 23, 2022), and when they did, they mostly described it as an “anti-vaccine rally.” That’s a ridiculous thing to say about an event involving some 10K-plus people who have had enough of the coercive impositions of the last nearly two years. All differences of opinion aside, the main message was that everyone has a right to freedom. Let’s get back to the progress we were experiencing in our lives before this great disruption. ” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

Freedom and Whisky Go Together Like Tyranny and Oppression – Jon Sanders  – A HISTORY LESSON ON POET ROBERT BURNS THAT IS WELL WORTH READING!!!!!

Commodus Americanus – “There is an old expression, “shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations”, that has haunted powerful people since forever. A variation on this is “The first generation makes it. The second generation maintains it and the third generation blows it”. Look around at the elected class and you see the same pattern. There are no men who went from the middle class to elected office on their own merit. In fact, it is hard to find anyone in national politics who has ever had a job. No one in the leadership of both parties has a line for “private sector” in his resume. The reason for that is they have never done productive work. Instead, like our old friend Commodus, they were groomed from birth to take up positions in the ruling class.” – The Zman

Yep, They’re Still Riding the “Omicron” Wave… – “I’m still constantly receiving these little reports from across the US (and Canada!) detailing the petty indignities and absurdities to which people are subjected in the name of this-or-that overheated COVID concern. Does every last report amount to full-blown authoritarian tyranny? Not really — most probably wouldn’t even register as particularly attention-getting on their own. But the thing I keep coming back to is the cumulative pettiness — how corrosive the sheer quantity of snippets like ones I’ll list in this post, taken in aggregate, must be to the social order.” – Michael Tracey

The Neocons’ Primary War Tactic: Branding Opponents of U.S. Intervention as Traitors – “By rehabilitating neocons and elevating them as thought leaders, liberals live in their framework. Thus are opponents of U.S. involvement in Ukraine deemed treasonous.” – Glenn Greenwald

Stop the Neocon from Starting a War – “There is not a lot of sympathy for Ukraine’s current government that was installed by a US-financed and stage-managed coup in 2013-2014. America’s media and politicians strongly support the military confrontation with Russia, a low-cost way of being loudly patriotic without actually doing anything serious. Only Poland, the Baltic states and American neocons really hunger for war – provided it is waged by the US.” – Eric Margolis  – THEY TURN TO FOLLY RATHER THAN PEACE!!!!!!

Biden And Harris – Unprepared For Impending Ukraine Crisis – “The undynamic duo fiddle as Russia lights its torches. ” – Mark Angelides

Tucker Carlson was on fire about Ukraine and America’s own border – “You won’t hear this analysis anywhere else, but he was spot on.” – Andrea Widburg

U.S. weighs letting diplomats leave China over tough COVID rules – “The U.S. State Department is considering whether to authorize departures for American diplomats and their families in China who wish to leave due to the U.S. government’s inability to prevent Chinese authorities from subjecting them to intrusive pandemic control measures, sources told Reuters.” – Michael Martina  – OH, REALLY. THE U.S. DIDN’T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THE INTRUSIVE CONTROL MEASURES THAT THEY PUT ON THEIR OWN CITIZENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Time for Introspection – “One option, of course, is to continue business as usual. That’s what is clearly going on today. Congress continues to dole out hundreds of millions of dollars to the Pentagon, the CIA, and the NSA, the three principal components of the national-security establishment. The other option is to put a stop to all this dangerous and destructive mayhem, which necessarily involves changing the United States in two fundamental respects:” – Jacob G. Hornberger

Let’s Not Have A War – “The American foreign policy establishment, chasing decades of failures, appears to be seriously considering the unthinkable in Ukraine” – Matt Taibbi

We Are in Unknown Territory — Russia Is Acting in Unprecedented Ways – “All bets are off. Russia has adopted a posture that is most un-Russian. And never has it openly and repeatedly threatened that if its far-reaching demands aren’t met almost immediately it would take matters into its own hands in ways that the West will not like one bit. Can we please take a moment and appreciate just how wildly uncharacteristic this is?” – Marko Marjanović  – LONG BUT VERY INSIGHTFUL!!!!!!

Suddenly, It’s No Longer ‘Deeply Dangerous’ To Talk About Rigged Elections – “It wasn’t long ago that we were told that President Donald Trump’s questioning the legitimacy of the election wasn’t just unfounded, but a serious threat to the future of the nation. Yet here is President Joe Biden, predicting that the next election can’t be trusted, based on far less evidence than Trump had. And the press is celebrating him for it. You certainly never see complaints about how these false claims are threatening the fabric of our society. ” – I & I Editorial Board

Biden out for ice cream as Ukraine crisis, border crisis, inflation, and crime spin out of control – “Joe Biden has a funny way of dealing with crises. Instead of working the phones or discussing strategies with diplomats or military officials, he takes a jaunt outside for ice cream. He did something of that nature when he (and his secretary of state, Anthony Blinken) went on vacation when Afghanistan was collapsing — Biden to Camp David, Blinken to the Hamptons — while Biden’s sidekick, Kamala Harris, toured Singapore and Vietnam. ” – Monica Showalter

WH Can’t Explain Biden’s Empty Schedule as He Shows What His True Priority Is – “So what is Joe Biden doing amid all these crises? Surely he’s working every hour on these concerns to try to alleviate the problems, right? Well, not exactly. One of the reporters asked White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki why Biden had nothing on his schedule apart from the “PDB” — the Presidential Daily Briefing. That was a question that Psaki didn’t anticipate. Check how she attempts to justify what he’s doing and count the “ums” and “uhs” as she tries to think of things to say. ““Well, let’s see, um, this morning I think he had some policy meetings, uh, also a PDB meeting,” Psaki responded. “Uh, he, um, later this afternoon, uh, I think is doing some remarks review.” I’m kind of curious as to what the “remarks review” is she talks about. Is that when they review with Biden how he messed up the day before? I’ve never heard of a “remarks review” before.” – Nick Arama

Boris Johnson Posing as Churchill on Ukraine Is Slapstick Example of War-as-Distraction – “Boris Johnson attempting to start a war with Russia partly over an illicit birthday party is a descent into deplorable and gutless slapstick.” – Finian Cunningham

Biden’s Continuing Shameful Policy Regarding Yemen – “In his first major foreign policy speech as president, Joe Biden pledged to end U.S. involvement in Yemen’s bloody war. “This war has to end,” Biden emphasized, “and to underscore our commitment, we’re ending all American support for offensive operations in the war in Yemen, including relevant arms sales.” We’re going to continue to support and help Saudi Arabia defend its sovereignty, and its territorial integrity and its people.” That was a potential loophole large enough that an 18-wheel truck could drive through it. And the potential loophole soon became an actual one. His administration must stop supporting Saudi Arabia’s war of aggression and enabling Riyadh’s egregious human rights violations. Biden needs to walk the walk, not just talk the talk.” – Ted Galen Carpenter

Who’s Afraid of Jerome Powell? – “I get the feeling that some folks would rather be right about their hyperinflation theories rather than actually figuring out what’s really going on. But the reality is that something has changed and the markets are finally coming to that conclusion. For months I’ve been arguing that Jerome Powell ignited a firestorm when he raised the Reverse Repo Rate by 0.05%, pulling trillions in base liquidity from overseas markets while handing U.S. banks all the collateral they needed. It’s created a political firestorm on Capitol Hill who tried to oust him from the Chair and failed. They got three of his fellow hawks, but not the king. He was able to run out the political clock on both Build Back Better and opposition to his reappointment. But it doesn’t happen if Powell doesn’t have the backing of the people behind him. And who backs Powell? The New York Fed, that’s who.” – Tom Luongo

Immediately. Something is rotten in Denmark. And Australia. And Israel. Where nearly 1 percent of the entire population just tested positive for Covid. Not in a month. Or a week. In one day. These countries have very different population demographics and previous exposure to Covid. They even have very different weather; it is summer in Australia. What do they share, then?

“Stupid Son Of A Bitch” – Biden Busted On Hot Mic After Being Asked About Americans’ Biggest Worry – Tyler Durden

No More Mr. Nice Guy – Biden’s Outburst At Doocy Is Revealing – “Is it a hot mic moment or a hot temper? The president appears unable to answer tough questions without resorting to snark and insults, and yet even softball questions have begun to elicit irritable responses. Some worry that such outbursts are a manifestation of the oft-raised subject of Biden’s cognitive issues, specifically dementia.’ – Mark Angelides

Watch: Nugget Of Truth Emerges On CNN As Guest RIPS Biden Apart – “Everything about this agenda is extremely drastic. Host Anderson Cooper was lost for words as Scott Jennings, former Special Asst. to President George W. Bush, tore into the “disaster” that is the Biden regime. Of course, no one saw this because CNN has lost 90% of its viewers and is more concerned with sending the likes of Brian Stelter into schools to man spread and blather about ‘misinformation’ in front of masked kids.” – Steve Watson

Biden Might Get Hundreds of Millions Killed Over Ukraine – “Although going to war is the most consequential decision that a nation can make, the people are rarely consulted by the elites, who are largely immunized from the consequences of their actions. If the people were actually consulted, wars would be rare events indeed. The rhetoric about the Ukraine conflict is out of control. President Joe Biden threatens that Russia would “pay a heavy price” for any incursion into Ukraine. Secretary of State Antony Blinken warns of “massive consequences” for Russia. Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi told Fox News’ Neil Cavuto, “We don’t rule out first-use nuclear action.” First-use nuclear action rhetoric is not only extremely dangerous, but these types of nonsensical remarks also threaten the stability of the entire world.” – Gen. Michael Flynn  –  A GENERAL WITH COMMON SENSE WHO WAS RAILROADED. NONE OF BIDEN’S COMMANDERS EVEN COME CLOSE TO HIS CALIBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is Washington Under Alien Control? – “Biden and Blinken get everything backwards in terms of US interests” – Philip Giraldi

Is the Biden regime trying to start a meaningless war? – “Just say no to war over Ukraine. The deeply unpopular Biden Administration, fresh from a relentless year-long attack on American society via COVID Mania, is now fanning the flames of war over the Russia-Ukraine border. With polling spiraling down the toilet, and the “national emergency” fading, it appears the Biden regime is attempting to save its tanking political stature by engaging in reckless hostilities with America’s historic Great Power rival in Moscow.” – Jordan Schachtel

10 Signs That Indicate That The U.S., The UK, Israel And NATO All Believe That We Are On The Precipice Of War With Russia – “Are we about to stumble into a war that nobody wants? As I will explain below, it would be so easy to avoid a military conflict with Russia, but the people running our foreign policy have ruled out any easy solutions. What the Russians want is not complicated. They don’t want western missiles in Ukraine, and they don’t want Ukraine to join NATO.” – Michael Snyder

Speech Is Only Free If Dissenting Voices Get Heard – Caitlin Johnstone

The New Cold War – “The news media isn’t talking about it yet, but it appears that we are now in a new cold war. I think we’ve been in it for some years now, but it was never declared, making it easy to overlook. With the media kowtowing to the very countries with which we are in this conflict, it’s no surprise that most people don’t realize what’s happening. Nevertheless, the cold war we are in today is just as real and just as dangerous as the one I grew up in.” – Bill White

America is in danger of having more rivals than it can handle – “The problem is that America has, for the past few decades, attuned itself to believe it must be the sole unipolar power in the world, and that its hegemony affirmed after the Cold War amounts to a form of destiny and fate. This has produced a foreign policy premised on extreme levels of aggression, zero-sum thinking, and a rendition that any competitors in any region of the globe must be subject to the full weight of military and economic containment. They cannot be dealt with pragmatically or creatively, or allowed to join a partnership with the US in what might be in the world’s best interests. Unless the world is permanently and irreversibly molded to America’s image, there never can be peace.” – Tom Fowdy

Bitcon . . .? – “Somehow, a digitized online representation of a “coin” has immense value, though what gives it any value is difficult to understand. It is not backed by precious metals. It is not issued by a bank. It’s just there, on the screen. The willingness of a sufficiency of people to accept that it has value is what gives it value. Dirt could work on this principle. To be fair, crypto is not materially different from U.S. dollars, which have value chiefly because people accept them as having it.” – Eric Peters  – I AM NEUTRAL ON BITCOIN.

A Real American Hero – “Wonder much about the eerie blank demeanor of Erin Burnett, who delivers the 7:00 o’clock news on CNN? I sure do. It’s a creepy kind of fraught blankness, like what the Vietnam grunts used to call the thousand-mile stare, denoting their guilty involvement in a morally odious enterprise. This is the joylessness of people bunkered too deep in anomie to even find pleasure in their own sadism. Thus, the hint of bored indignation: how dare you not believe the bullshit I am delivering on behalf of your betters… who know what’s good for you? Or maybe the girl is just on quaaludes. Anyway, nothing serves as a better barometer of how things are going in the struggle over the fate of this tortured land than Erin Burnett’s scowling puss. Sunday, at the March Against Mandates in our nation’s capital, the resistance to Covid vaccine tyranny laid it out, none with plainer eloquence than Bobby Kennedy: The message is getting through and the tyrants are running scared. They are perhaps having bad dreams involving torches and pitchforks. Naturally CNN took the lead in attempting to defame Mr. Kennedy as an anti-Semite ” – James Howard Kunstler   – MR. KUNSTLER SPOT ON ONCE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

‘Every time you comply, you get weaker’: RFK Jr. electrifies anti-mandate rally – “Every time you say ‘yes,’ you’re getting pushed back to a weaker position. The hill that you’re going to die on is the hill you’re on right now,” he said, “and they’re coming for our children.You think they found Jesus suddenly … and they’re suddenly concerned with public health? These are the companies that gave us the opioid crisis. These are not good citizens, these are criminal enterprises.” – Joe Kovacs

The Great American Hospicide – “Thanks to Government Incentives, Killing For Profit Was Never Easier. he “official” number meant to scare and manipulate the population into obedience and compliance is 174,233 deaths where Covid is mentioned as the cause of death on the death certificate. The actual number of deaths in England and Wales from Covid with no other underlying cause is…17,371. The average age was roughly 81.5 years with 85% of deaths in the over 65 category.1 This figure of 17,371 has been publicly available for a month now but not one single report of it has been filed by any western “journalists”. To quote the great comic and truth teller Jimmy Dore, “I wonder why they wouldn’t want people to know the real death count? I wonder why? Maybe it’s because people would stop sh**ting their pants and putting up with all their authoritarianism.” – Good Citizen  – A MUST READ FROM THE GOOD CITIIZEN!!!!!

Vax Die-Off for Next Three Years (VIDEO) with Clif High – “Each year in succession will have more people dying than the year before. There is also going to be more infirmities, more illness and more of a drain on the system. In this three years, we will take the globalists to task and hold them accountable for their crimes. We are going to have a ‘red pill’ moment that’s coming soon.” – Greg Hunter

COVID: Why did mega-corporations accept the lockdowns? – “Well, it so happens that three of the most powerful corporate bosses in America DO have deep connections to major hospitals, and these three men run corporations that OWN CORPORATE AMERICA. What??? The three men are Larry Fink, Joseph Hooley, and Mortimer Buckley. Buckley is the CEO of the Vanguard Group. Hooley is the CEO of State Street. Fink is the CEO of BlackRock.” – Jon Rappoport

The very concerning data from Scotland – “Scottish data shows that the COVID-19 age-standardized case rate is highest among the two-dose vaccinated and lowest among unvaccinated! It further shows this trend of negative efficacy for the double-vaccinated persisting for hospitalizations and deaths. Something is very wrong here, and together with other data points, it raises concerning questions about the negative effect of waning antibodies, constant boosting, and the consequences of a leaky vaccine with narrow-spectrum suboptimal antibodies against an ever-evolving virus.” – Daniel Horowitz  – A VERY GOOD, DETAILED ANALYSIS FROM MR. HOROWITZ!!!!!

Why straight talk about vaccine failure will be even harder to find than straight talk about all the other Covid failures – “Hint: You can throw away your masks, you can open schools, but you can’t unvaccinate.” – Alex Berenson

BA2 Omicron Variant is Worth Discussing – “BA2 is outcompeting Original Omicron in Denmark. What is going on? A new “variant”, called somewhat incorrectly “Omicron BA.2”, appeared around Christmas and is out-competing, out-infecting, and overall somehow generating even more cases than the original Omicron. In Denmark, Omicron BA2 is already over 50% of all cases, and rising. BA.2 is considered a sub-lineage of original Omicron (which is now referred to as Omicron BA.1), however these two genetic variants seem to have diverged months BEFORE Omicron actually appeared. This is certainly a genetic oddity, just as Omicron is a genetic oddity with the ancestor that disappeared 1.5 years before Omicron appeared. Both of these oddities raise a possibility that both Omicron BA.1 and BA.2 do not have a natural origin.” – Igor Chudov  – APPEARS GAIN OF FUNCTION NEVER ENDS. FAUCI IS PROBABLY HAVING WET DREAMS!!!!!!

Covid, The Strange Death of Medicine- “The physician is dead. First fêted by, then flogged, and ultimately bypassed by Pharma. An unwanted, troublesome middleman. The classical physician is surplus to the corporatised equation of health. Our patients walk off with Pharma, hand in hand like a kidnapped infant with a charming stranger. They are on the rebound. Why should they trust medics? We have been abysmal. The doctor-patient relationship is also dead. Both doctor and patient seem to have somewhat willingly embraced this divorce greased by covid fear. ” – The Covid Physician

Russia gives up on COVID restrictions? – “We have a few questions about this.” – Edward Slavsquat

US Orders Families Of Diplomats To “Immediately” Leave Ukraine As Biden Weighs Deploying Thousands Of Troops To Eastern Europe – “What we are more concerned about is just who is so earnestly pushing the US into World War III, because it certainly is not the senile president who barely has any idea where he is half the time, and whose puppet strings are controlled by dozens of special interest groups. Unfortunately we doubt anyone in the media will inquire into whose actions are pushing the US to the brink of all out war, with potentially tens of millions dead, until it is too late.” – Tyler Durden

Ok, He’s Insane – “The market certainly thinks so. Don’t kid yourselves folks; the headline out overnight that Biden is contemplating committing actual troops to Ukraine is why the dive this morning in the markets. If you think any sort of armed conflict with Russia is a good idea you’re out of your mind.” – Karl Denninger  – INDEED HE IS. IT’S NO LONGER JUST DEMENTIA, IT’S FLAT OUT LOST HIS F*CKING MIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Insanity of the West Accelerates – “If Biden wants to deter Russia all he needs to do is to give Russia the security guarantee she says she needs. Why does Biden want Russia to be insecure? The cause of the problem is obvious. In 2014 the US in an attempt to deprive Russia of her Black Sea naval base overthrew a Russian-friendly and democratically elected Ukrainian government and installed a neo-Nazi regime that began war against the Russian inhabitants of the Donbass region of Eastern Ukraine, formerly parts of Russia that had been transferred during the Soviet era into the the Soviet Union’s Ukrainian province. Russia does not want the broke and troublesome Ukraine. Russia just wants Ukraine not to become a place for US missile bases. It is a simple demand easy to accept in the interest of peace. But peace is unprofitable and is the last thing the US military/security complex wants. ” – Paul Craig Roberts

‘Pandemic’ narrative over…false flag in Ukraine next? – Gavin O’Reilly

The DC Rally and the Rise of the Resistance – “It didn’t just happen actually. It wasn’t spontaneous. It was paid for, planned, organized, put together, and broadcast on online media. There was nothing but sincere love of what we used to call liberty behind these efforts. The speakers, organizers, and people who showed up took huge risks in order to salvage what is left of the Founders’ vision. They deserve every credit for this. Bless them. The enduring question is: why did it take so long? Why did people not pour out into the streets on March 13, 2020, when the government first issued its lockdown directives that were put into place the next week and lasted for months after?” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

Fourth Turning 2022 – Bad Moon Rising (Part 2) – “In Part 1 of this article I laid out how the global elite have used this covid flu to manipulate the weak minded into a fear induced mass psychosis as a key element in their Great Reset plan to control the world and keep you technologically enslaved under lock and key. Now I will try to decipher how this mass hysteria might play out over the course of 2022 and beyond.” – Jim Quinn  – PART ONE WAS PREVIOUSLY LINKED. HERE’S PART 2. READ BOTH. THEY ARE VERY GOOD!!!!!

Now even 1984 comes with a trigger warning – “I suppose it was only a matter of time before the woke mob came for Nineteen Eighty-Four. A novel that suggests it is a very bad thing to censor inconvenient opinions, to memory-hole problematic culture, to treat alternative ways of thinking as a species of mental illness, and to engage in orgies of spittle-flecked hatred against those deemed to be the enemies of correct thought? Yeah, there was no way the social-justice warriors of the 21st century, so hooked on Twittermobbing wrongthinkers and erasing historical monuments, were going to leave alone such an offensive book. How dare this Mr Orwell besmirch our political tactics?!” – Brendan O’Neill

Wokeism Is a Cruel and Dangerous Cult – “Wokeism’s natural logic is to destroy the lives of people of both genders, of all races, and—if need be—of those of every age, all to leverage an otherwise unworkable ideological agenda.” – Victor Davis Hanson

Censorship By Algorithm Does Far More Damage Than Conventional Censorship – “No individual being silenced does as much real-world damage to free expression and free thought as the way ideas and information which aren’t authorized by the powerful are being actively hidden from public view, while material which serves the interests of the powerful is the first thing they see in their search results. It ensures that public consciousness remains chained to the establishment narrative matrix. It doesn’t matter that you have free speech if nobody ever hears you speak. ” – Caitlin Johnstone

President Biden calculates his first anniversary in Dog Years – “A few days ago, the White House held its biggest rally to date to celebrate President Biden’s first year in office; the guest list included a Who’s Who of absolutely nobody, with officials estimating attendance in the tens of people.” – Simon Black  – SATIRE WITH A LOT OF TRUTH FROM SIMON!!!!!!!

Joe Biden Decides the Cure for His Incompetence Is a Lot More Joe Biden – “All politics aside, it is difficult to imagine a more inept, incompetent, and out-of-touch junta than that now ensconced in the White House. By any metric you wish to examine, the United States has taken about a half-dozen steps down the ladder towards Third World sh** hole status since Joey SoftServe was installed as president.” – streiff

Inflation only goes up and will bankrupt Joe Biden and the Democrats – “Inflation has risen more than fourfold since Biden took office, jumping from 1.4% to 7%. Cynics are quipping that it’s now higher than Biden’s approval rating, but that is a cheap shot — or at least premature. Last month, Biden characterized inflation as a “bump in the road.” But that “bump” is a hole in the gas tank for tens of millions of Americans who drive to work. Oil prices closed at their highest level in seven years the day Biden spoke.” – James Bovard

Candace Owens: They Really Do Want A Global Technocracy, Don’t Let Them Gaslight You (VIDEO) – “The government is creating problems because they want you to turn to the government for answers. I always say Black America was the experiment with this, they issued trillions of dollars in welfare and they are seeking more today than they were before the welfare began. They’re now making that system for everybody. They want every single American dependent on the government. For food, for family, for drugs, whatever it is, they want a system of slavery, people need to look it up.” – Tim Hains

Liz Cheney hears the words ‘mean and nasty’ from Newt Gingrich and thinks he’s talking about her – “Over the weekend, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich stated the obvious in politics — that what goes around comes around. Who should show up when the harsh remarks were made but Liz Cheney herself, the Republican In Name Only on the committee, to howl her outrage: Nobody else on the committee said anything about Newt, it was just her. It was the equivalent to Newt saying something stunk in a closed room full of people and Cheney yelling her farts didn’t stink, inadvertantly admitting that she was the one who created the problem. Gingrich’s essay in fact cited Democrats and their view that their power is permanent as a very foolish political model to conduct politics on. At one point, he named a handful of Republicans, so we know he knew about her, but mainly, his target was Democrats.” – Monica Showalter

Boulder Wildfires and Media Gaslighting Over Global Warming – “Somehow, long before human activity, the climate changed, and Colorado went from warm beachfront to high desert and cold winter temperatures. Chicago was once covered by a mile-thick ice sheet. There was no human activity at that point in time, other than a few small fires warming the caves of early man. Yet the climate changed and those who push man-made climate change fail to offer any explanation or reconciliation of this “inconvenient truth.”” – Brian C. Joondeph

Thus far, the investor flight to safety has been modest. But portfolio de-risking is now set to grow.

The last time Joe “worked” an honest job for a living was when he said he really enjoyed young black kids petting his “hairy legs” and, allegedly, nearly rumbled with “Corn Pop.” In the end, it doesn’t really matter who the dumbest Biden is because ultimately the dumbest people around are those who voted for Joe.” – Derek Hunter

‘Disinformation, Extremism And Violence’: All Eyes On DC ‘Defeat The Mandates’ Rally As Organizers Caution Against Bad Actors – Tyler Durden  – AS I SAID YESTERDAY, THEY COULD SPIN THIS INTO A JAN 6 TYPE NARRATIVE!!!!!

Revealed: The remarkable lengths taken to whitewash Bill Clinton’s cosy links to pervert Jeffrey Epstein when Hillary ran for President – Richard Pendlebury and Stephen Wright

I Became a Race Realist Growing Up in Gary, Indiana – James Hanna  – LONG BUT INTERESTING. KIND OF GIVES YOU A DIFFERENT VIEW ON THE WHITE PRIVILEGE NARRATIVE!!!!!

Eric Adams must be NYC’s wartime mayor – “If the cops aren’t safe, nobody is. The murder of rookie Police Officer Jason Rivera, 22, and the serious wounding of his partner, Officer Wilbert Mora, mark another low moment in New York’s decline.” – Michael Goodwin

Africa Needs Carbon Fuels – “Energy is the backbone of economic development, and Africa remains the most economically underdeveloped region on Earth. This means that renewable energy sources are not a near-term solution for Africa’s economic development. Even the developed West is struggling to make renewables work as the primary energy source. Let Africa develop – quickly – and they, like people elsewhere, will choose more environmental protection as they grow wealthier.” – James E. Hanley

Manifest Destiny Done Right. China and Russia Succeed Where the U.S. Failed – “It should be obvious that the world is being sucked into a new Cold War, with old school iron curtains, anti-communist rhetoric and even nuclear sabre rattling pushed by unipolar war hawks in the west. Unlike the first Cold War, this new variant strain features Russia and China working closely together along with Iran and a growing chorus of nations who are increasingly integrating into the Belt and Road Initiative.” – Matthew Ehret

Anonymous Officials Claim There’s An Evil Russian Plot Again But The Evidence Is Secret Again – “The New York Times reports that according to anonymous individuals within the US and British governments, Russia is currently plotting to topple the existing government of Ukraine in some way using some method and then somehow install a puppet regime that is sympathetic to Moscow using some sort of means. What specifically those means and methods might be are not revealed to us in this very serious news report.” – Caitlin Johnstone  – THE NY TIMES HAS MORE ANONYMOUS SOURCES THAN ANYONE. WONDER WHO THEY ARE -THE CIA? BORIS AND NATASHA? NOSTRODAMUS? THE WATER COOLER REPAIRMAN???????????????

Biden’s Ukrainian Albatross – “Then-Secretary of State Colin Powell is given credit for popularizing the “Pottery Barn” rule of foreign policy. Though he denies using that exact phrase, in arguing against what became the disastrous 2003 US attack on Iraq Powell made the point that, as in Pottery Barn, “if you break it, you own it. “We “own” Ukraine and there is no way back – at least if the US foreign policy establishment has its way. ” – Daniel McAdams

The hidden origin of the escalating Ukraine-Russia conflict – “Events of the Maidan massacre shaped one of the most controversial hours in European history since the end of the Cold War – Ivan Katchanovski – NOT AS SIMPLE AS THE MSM WOULD HAVE YOU BELIEVE AND THAT IS THAT RUSSIA IS SIMPLY GOING TO INVADE JUST TO EXPAND THEIR TERRITORY. BUT THE WARMONGERS WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

US Personnel Leaving Ukraine Ahead of Planned Biden Regime War? – “While it’s uncertain if dominant lunatics in charge of running the Washington asylum intend drawing Russia into war with the US and/or its Ukrainian proxies, one thing is clear. Irreconcilable differences define US relations with all nations free from its control — especially with Russia, China and Iran. Made-in-the-USA events in recent weeks and months should scare everyone. They’re pushing things toward a potentially disastrous East/West clash of civilizations.” – Stephen Lendman

Prepper Update: Where I Am Now and What I Am Thinking (January 2022) – “I am continuing on the self-sufficiency path of prepping in my own way. I do truly believe that providing as much of your own food as possible is the way to go. The world’s supply is uncertain and now global leaders feel that food and supplies are bargaining tools to keep other countries complacent. Growing and preserving your food takes that control out of their hand and puts it in yours.” – Erica Nygaard

ECONOMIC NEWS

Bad News, I’m Afraid – “The evidence is that the supply chain crisis is just getting started. It’ll be with us for years and have huge negative economic effects. The supply chain is collapsing at every stage due to bottlenecks at every other stage. Commodity inputs are scarce, partly due to energy shortages at mines. Manufacturing is behind due to lack of commodity inputs. Deliveries are behind due to manufacturing delays. And finally, shelves are bare due to nondelivery of orders and a worker shortage. It’s all connected and it’s all collapsing at once. So don’t believe the happy talk about a “temporary” supply chain crisis. I’ll say it again: The crisis will last for years with predictable negative effects on economic growth.” – Jim Rickards

S&P 500 Futures Positioning Suggests More Down is Coming – “Despite the selloff, fund managers and speculators are still hugely long futures, even adding more” – Mish

Why Inflation is Not Going to Give the Fed a Break – “Forget bond pricing as a way of gauging what inflation is going to do. The Fed is still buying the lion’s share of the bond market.” – David Haggith

When a Wild Bull Stumbles into a Hibernating Bear – “How often do we get a Bear Market after a strong bull market plunges to the 200-day moving average?” – Wisdom Seeker

Central Planners Don’t Know What’s Best for You – ” It’s the mistaken belief to think that governments—that enlightened agency that performs the “regulating” part—can wield magic wands, know what is unknowable for the rest of us, and force us (or nudge us … ) into behaving better. Oh, and that once such a pristine corrective system is in place, it won’t deteriorate into power plays, paternalism, or become corrupted by ideologies or special interests of one kind and another. If there is some epistemic or institutional reason why markets can’t solve (or improve upon) an imagined problem, there is little reason to think that a real-world government could either. An ideal, uncorrupt, perfectly knowledgeable government might—remember Madison’s “If men were Angels”—but is that really on the table?” – Joakim Book

(R)evolution – “The first three weeks of 2022 have been brutal for risk assets including stocks and crypto. The realization that the asset bubble brought about by excessive monetary intervention has started the process of imploding all around us as the Fed is now forced to raise rates and end QE having completely misjudged the persistence on inflation. In short, carnage:” – Sven Henrich

All The Pieces Are Coming Together At Once To Create The Perfect Storm (VIDEO) with Craig Hemke – ” Inflation is going to get worse and gold is going to start to make moves. The Fed will push rate increases but this will not help the economy it will have the opposite effect. The WEF push for the Great Reset will fail. The pieces are coming together to create the perfect economic storm.” – X22 Report

VERSE FOR THE DAY

Proverbs 14:16    A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

It’s up to you not to heed the call-up
‘N’ you must not act the way you were brought up
Who knows the reasons why you have grown up?
Who knows the plans or why they were drawn up?

It’s up to you not to heed the call-up
I don’t wanna die!
It’s up to you not to hear the call-up
I don’t wanna kill!

For he who will die
Is he who will kill

Maybe I wanna see the wheatfields
Over Kiev and down to the sea

All the young people down the ages
They gladly marched off to die
Proud city fathers used to watch them
Tears in their eyes

There is a rose that I want to live for
Although, God knows, I may not have met her
There is a dance an’ I should be with her
There is a town – unlike any other

It’s up to you not to hear the call-up
‘N’ you must not act the way you were brought up
Who give you work an’ why should you do it?
At fifty five minutes past eleven
There is a rose…
Yeah!

Federal officials to monitor Washington anti-vaccine-mandate rally for potential violence and extremist activity – Caitlin Dickson and Jana Winter  – HERE WE GO, AGAIN. I KNEW THAT THIS COULD BE A STRONG POSSIBILITY. PEOPLE WHO GO TO THE RALLY BETTER BE CAREFUL BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO TWIST THE NARRATIVE AGAIN LIKE THEY DID ON JAN 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our Time’s 1989 Moment, Maybe? – “The good news is the wheels are finally coming off. It was the only way the runaway truck of Sickness Psychosis could ever be stopped. When there is a freedom option, most people will take it. And even if they don’t, the fact that they could applies a salutary pressure upon those who would take it away. Which is why the underlying theme of the Cult of Sickness Abiding was always and above all to take it away, everywhere. From “masks” to Jabs, the same for all – and everywhere.” – Eric Peters

How self-interest in medical decision-making leads to the well-being of society – “Individuals, not technocrats, know best. Self-interest is often interpreted as greed but it’s better understood as personal agency and responsibility. It’s not a crazy idea. The person closest to a problem is usually the best person to solve the problem (he/she just has so much more detailed information than anyone else). In the case of health it is preposterous to think that anyone outside of me can possibly know what’s best for me.” – Toby Rogers

How to Get Ivermectin – Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance

Unmask America – “Enough is enough. It is time to stop wearing masks, or at the very least to eliminate mask mandates in all settings. This is especially urgent for children in schools and universities, who suffer the effects of masks for long hours each day despite being at exceedingly low risk for death or serious illness from covid. We have a responsibility, once and for all, to reject the ludicrous, ever-shifting narratives underpinning masks as effective impediments to the spread of covid infections.” – Jeff Deist

If Ivermectin Recognized, Justification for Lockdowns and Vaccine Mandates Would Evaporate: Doctor – Harry Lee and Nicholas VandenNieuwenhof

Is Natural Immunity a Case of Lost Knowledge? – “Another day in our strange times: the CDC has finally found a kind word to say about natural immunity. You have to dig for it but it is there: On Covid alone, there are nearly 150 studies documenting the power of natural immunity, most of which came before the interview with Anthony Fauci on Sept 13, 2021. At that interview he was asked about natural immunity. He said this: “I don’t have a really firm answer for you on that. That’s something that we’re going to have to discuss regarding the durability of the response.”” – Jeffrey A. Tucker – AMAZING THAT A GUY WHO IS SUPPOSED TO BE “THE SCIENCE” AND WHO AS DONE RESEARCH AS AN IMMUNOLOGIST FOR MANY YEARS DOESN’T HAVE AN ANSWER FOR NATURAL IMMUNITY. BASICALLY AN IMMUNOLOGIST STUDIES PRIMARILY ALLERGIES AND NOT NECESSARILY VIRUSES!!!!!!

British Medical Journal Demands Immediate Release of All COVID-19 Vaccine, Treatment Data – “BMJ added that regulators are not there to “dance to the tune of rich global corporations and enrich them further” but to protect the general public’s health and for that reason, they said, we need “complete data transparency for all studies, we need it in the public interest, and we need it now.”” – Katabella Roberts

What if legislatures stood up for people? Placing rights above self-righteousness is the essence of a republic” – El Gato Malo

The CDC Officially Moves the Goalposts on COVID-19 Vaccination – “The CDC has officially moved the goalposts on what it means to be vaccinated from COVID-19. We all knew this day was coming, even as an onslaught of “fact-checkers” assured us it was “misinformation” to assert such a change was coming publicly. But first, let’s talk about the details.” – Bonchie

You only thought you were vaccinated – ” On Friday, Rochelle Walensky announced that there really isn’t such a thing as “fully vaccinated” (tell that to all the people who didn’t get polio or smallpox after they got that one shot). Instead, people will be considered “up to date” — and you’ll need the third shot for the current version of “up to date.”” – Andrea Widburg  – THEY’VE TOSSED THIS AROUND FOR A FEW WEEKS. I GUESS THE DEFINITION IS OFFICIAL. AT LEAST FOR THIS WEEK. NEXT WEEK, WHO KNOWS!!!!!!

Canadian Mailman With Immunocompromised Wife Sent Home For Wearing N95 Mask While Working – “In what can only be described as further proof that our Covid psychosis is nowhere near being over, reports surfaced this week that a Canada Post mail carrier was sent home from his job on Monday because he was wearing an N95 mask. The problem? It wasn’t a company-mandated cloth mask – it was actually a better one.” – Tyler Durden

NEWS

Everything Is Clear From Up Here – “What information does a lonely healthy skeptic glean from an impassioned retrospective analysis of the past two years? The lies are everywhere. They are intentional. Your brain and emotions are tools for management and manipulation. Your behavior is to be monitored and conditioned. The hearts and minds of millions will soon recognize the evil social engineers are all around them, in the halls of every institution public or private. They seek to divide and control totally. This is healthy skepticism based on facts and evidence. This is not bug house paranoia.” – Good Citizen – ANOTHER GOOD ONE FROM THE GOOD CITIZEN!!!!!

The World Is Now the Opposite of Everything it Is ‘Supposed’ to Be – “It has been said that with evil, comes inversion. If this is in fact true, and I believe that it is, we are now living in a time of extreme evil. This world has been turned upside down, as everything seems to be the opposite of what it should be. Where we once had more freedom, we now have more slavery. Where we once were excited about life, we now are depressed. Where we once were a family, we now are alone, and where we once were bold and unafraid, we now live in fear. If everything we are doing is wrong, then doing the opposite should be right.” – Gary D. Barnett

Who are the Oath Keepers? – “Hearing the Department of Justice describe them, one would think that the Oath Keepers are the scariest bunch of anti-American knuckleheads to come down the pike since the Ku Klux Klan. Given that a bunch of them were just arrested for plotting an insurrection — that the FBI assured us wasn’t an insurrection — this is a good time to get to know who they actually are.” – John Green  – MIGHT ACTUALLY SURPRISE YOU WHAT THEY DO STAND FOR!!!!!!

The Other “Big Lie”: Democrats Fuel Doubts Over the Legitimacy of the Coming Elections – Jonathan Turley

Chicago Chaos: A Warning for America? – “Part of the explanation for the street violence lies in a totally broken public school system that works well for the Chicago Teachers Union but miserably fails the children of the city, most of them black and brown children without alternative options to the government schools monopoly. Because of the ongoing and systemic failures of Chicago policymakers and elected officials, the city increasingly resembles a Third World enclave on many levels, including a massive disparity between the credentialed elites who live near the lakeshore and the impoverished masses in the outlying neighborhoods. The kinds of policies pursued by Mayor Lori Lightfoot and the Chicago Democratic machine reflect the radical agenda of the Biden administration for the entire country. The United States must heed the harsh lessons of Chicago’s carnage and choose entirely different policies for our country.” – Steve Cortes

The True Cost of Rockefeller Agriculture & the New Food Agenda – “Shortly after World World Two, The Rockefeller Foundation set forth on a quest to bring about a transformation of world agriculture. They did this, in part, by “socially engineering” the scientific culture to not only accept but promote the use of GMO foods and dangerous biotechnologies. And now, they are at it again.” – Ryan Matters

‘Existential Threat of Our Time’? UK Bans Sunrooms That Trap ‘Unwanted Solar Gain’ – “And not to nitpick, here — but whose business is it to determine whether a sunroom becomes “unbearably hot” or “uncomfortably warm” throughout a particular residential home, anyway — the homeowner or the British government? Or, perhaps coming to a country near you, America, the federal government?” – Mike Miller

The ‘Race To The Bottom’ Trap: Why Companies Produce Low Quality Products – “Ever wonder why companies keep producing low quality products that are not only bad for people but the planet as well? I do.” – Joe Martino

Is Perfidious Erdogan Destroying Russia for The Great Turan? – ” Erdoğan has shown a clear pattern of not merely opportunism but actually perfidy or betrayal of trust, as in double-cross, in his dealings with Russia despite being dependent for energy and advanced defense equipment. Why, is the question.” – F. William Engdahl

Russia’s socioeconomic stability: Amazing or just okay? – “Everyone on the internet understands the US economy is basically a massive Ponzi scheme kept afloat by endless paper-printing and Netflix; only a petrodollar shill would deny this. But what’s the deal with Russia? Yes, Russia’s Central Bank has a giant mountain of cash and shiny metal. Another fun fact about Russia: its government doesn’t run up insane deficits so it can drone-bomb ten different brown-people countries simultaneously. Frugal and shrewd. But does any of this translate into socioeconomic stability for the average Russian?” – Edward Slavsquat

Insane Signals, One Conclusion… U.S. and NATO Partners Are Inciting War Against Russia – Strategic Culture Foundation

Lavrov/Blinken Talks in Geneva: A Waste of Time and Effort by Russia – “It doesn’t matter whether a Biden regime response is forthcoming or not. It doesn’t matter what’s said if there is one. As Vladimir Putin, Lavrov and other Russian officials understand, all that matters are hegemon USA’s intentions and actions. ” – Stephen Lendman

Why the US Government Is Enforcing the Dead Hand of the Soviet Presidium in Crimea – “Washington’s hypocritical and tendentious accusations against Russia’s reabsorption of Crimea imply that the dead hand of the Soviet presidium must be defended at all costs — as if the security of North Dakota depended upon it!” – David Stockman

U.S. Says ‘Wants Peace Not War’ as It Arms Ukraine to the Teeth – “Washington has decided to ramp up the push for war against Russia using Ukraine as a proxy – and using a twisted narrative about Russian aggression and invasion. American Secretary of State Antony Blinken is shuttling across Europe this week vowing that Washington “desperately wants peace not war” with Russia. This touchy-feely sentiment comes amid reports of additional American and British weapons supplies heading to the NATO-backed Kiev regime.” – Finian Cunningham

“I Ain’t Dying in the Ukraine” – “What does the US have to gain from a conflict in Ukraine? Well, with the virus narrative crumbling in front of their eyes the government needs something they can use to justify keeping and expanding their control over the citizenry. This conflict has the potential of turning into an all out war, perhaps even World War 3 given the US and Russia’s respective allies. War is the healthline of the state, and a war on this level would allow them to justify any kind of control they want over us. ” – Stratton J. Davis

What the US and UK get wrong about Ukraine – “Talk of ‘appeasing’ Russia is alarmist nonsense. Personally, as a long-time watcher of the region, with extensive first-hand experience of both Russia and Ukraine, I find this one-sided drumbeat of war, barely interrupted by periodic sub-summit level talks invariably called by the Russians, irresponsible and dangerous in the extreme.” – Mary Dejevsky

New Energy Regulations Will Make Every Room in Your House More Expensive – “The Biden administration moves to make appliances more expensive and less effective. All-Out Assault On Common Sense Biden makes the preposterous claim Build Back Better will not add to inflation. The claim is absurd. A push to electrify everything cannot possibly do anything but make make things more expensive.

Understanding the inflation problem – “Nearly all the commentary emanating from monetary policy makers, economists, and the media is misguided, believing inflation is rising prices and must be addressed accordingly. They are only the symptoms of inflation. The true cause is the expansion of currency and bank credit, which, reflected in the US dollar’s M2 money supply has increased substantially since March 2020, and now stands at nearly three times the level when Lehman failed.” – Alasdair Macleod

The Right to Healthy Food: Comorbidities & COVID-19 – “Although hereditary factors are involved, scientists at the Francis Crick Institute in London believe the growing popularity of Western-style diets is a major reason why autoimmune diseases are rising across the world by around 3% to 9% a year. A Western-style diet is characterised by highly processed and refined foods with high contents of sugars, salt, and fat and protein from red meat. It is a major contributor to metabolic disturbances and the development of obesity-related diseases, including type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease – the top comorbidities where ‘COVID deaths’ are concerned.” – Colin Todhunter  – AND ALL THE JABS AND BOOSTERS IN THE WORLD ISN’T GOING TO GET RID OF A “PANDEMIC OF OBESITY”

Unexpected Comeback in the FLCCC Early Treatment Protocol – “Hydroxychloroquine was present in the protocol, but it was dropped mid-2020. This January 19 2022, it’s therefore a bit of a surprise to see Hydroxychloroquine to re-appear in the FLCCC prevention and early treatment protocol. The move follows the experience of several frontline doctors who found that Hydroxychloroquine is particularly useful to deal with Omicron, in combination with Ivermectin and other agents, as indicated in the protocol.” – COVEXIT.com

The large packet of totalitarian answers to a problem of questionable magnitude has been booted from the State Duma. There has been an air of dread amongst the populace who were waiting to see if nationwide QR-code legislation would make it into law destroying their lives and businesses to separate those vaccinated from plague ridden riff raff.” – Tim Kirby

Thinking Like a Tyrant – “We Must Understand the Current Evil. Something that is slowing down many people from fully grasping what is upon us, is that they are making mistakes in their reasoning about events, because they are engaged, naturally enough, in what intelligence analysts call “mirror imaging.” But this assumption, that those currently influencing events and making certain key decisions, are “like us” — is a fatal error.” – Dr Naomi Wolf  – LONG BUT GOOD ARTICLE!!!!!!!

All of a sudden borders are sacred again, you know. Anyway, the only thing Guatemala is dumping in Texas and Arizona is new voters, and that just means more democracy for us — a “win-win” as they say in the cabinet room! Then there’s this Shangri-La called Ukraine. Can anyone find it on the map? It’s nowheres around here. Let’s face it: Ukraine is not sending us any new voters or bananas. What good are they? You might argue: they exported the Vindman twins to America (win-win); they supported Hunter Biden’s cocaine habit for six or seven years and paid the mortgage on The Big Guy’s beach house. So, maybe we do owe them. But then, it’s said that Russia is lurking on Ukraine’s border like a hungry bear at the edge of a sheep pasture, licking its chops, fork and knife in its fisted paws, napkin tied around its throat, visions of mutton-filled perogies dancing in its head.” – James Howard Kunstler  – GREAT READ FROM MR.

This Is Your Last Chance, Part Two – “After the collapse, a global collectivist government will replace the current multiplicity of collectivist governments. Those who resist pacification and enslavement will be “corrected,” or if that fails, murdered. Setting aside straight line projections, what’s actually coming is a history’s greatest trend change: total financial, economic, intellectual, and moral collapse. To those who rule and are trying to implement their global consolidation: This is your last chance to save your own skins. Nothing will stop the collapse, but you can at least abandon your nefarious project and its totalitarian blueprint. Collapse will focus your victims’ attention on their ruination and your responsibility for it.” – Robert Gore  – GOOD ARTICLE ON THE “BIGGER PICTURE” FROM ROBERT. PART 1 WAS PREVIOUSLY LINKED!!!!!!

By the Numbers, a Failing President – “Indeed, when one considers the political situation one year after Biden’s inauguration and 10 months before the 2022 elections, how Biden turns things around for himself, his presidency and his party is not easy to see.” – Patrick J. Buchanan

Scam alert: WAR! – “The oldest scam in the scam book. The nations are at each other’s throats. Everyone is sweaty with anticipation. War! Trustworthy media outlets funded by Big Pharma, investment banks and multifarious intelligence agencies appear to be (intentionally) trapped in a positive feedback loop in which troop movements, strongly worded diplomatic communiques and salacious scoops from anonymous sources reinforce the narrative that armed conflict between Russia and [drop-down list of 50 nations] is inevitable. Interesting. Why would they want you to think that? Especially if you’re so sure Russia would “win”? You’re a plebe. Do you know what that means? It means you’re a meat shield. Meat shields don’t do that well when the bombs start dropping. Guys, it’s a scam. You’re getting scammed. Yes, again. Omicron scam: not scammy enough?” – Edward Slavsquat

The Road To Tyranny Is Paved With Dementia – “The perfect puppet President could never comprehend the damage he never remembers he does. What the last election in the U.S. really boiled down to (aside from some vote rigging in five counties in five states to swing it in favor of management’s choice, something we’re not allowed to talk about) is an unaccountable rogue state apparatus of intelligence agencies and party apparatchiks who work for unelected foreign global interests to have the greatest gift they could ever hope for, a puppet President who doesn’t know what day it is. He was selected on the third day of the eleventh month and glory to the regime they called him Papa Dementia.” – Good Citizen

A Politicized FBI Helps Biden Get Rid of Democrat Representative Cuellar, an Open Borders Critic – “The “investigation” of Rep. Henry Cuellar will help his challenger smear him. The Democrat Party has made it clear that they intend to flood the country with illegal aliens and to give them the vote. New York City already has. The Democrat Party has declared war on the white American majority. Every white idiot who votes Democrat is committing suicide not only for himself but for all of us. The legislative branch is easily dominated by the executive branch because of the latter’s police power which gives the executive branch a monopoly on frame-ups” – Paul Craig Roberts

Congress’s 1/6 Committee Claims Absolute Power as it Investigates Citizens With No Judicial Limits – “The Committee plotted with JPMorgan and its lawyer, former Obama AG Loretta Lynch, to obtain a citizen’s financial records with no possibility of judicial review. Indeed, lawyers for the committee have been explicitly arguing that nothing proscribes or limits their authority to obtain data regarding whichever citizens they target and, even more radically, that the checks imposed on the FBI (such as the requirement to obtain judicial authorization for secret subpoenas) do not apply to the committee.” – Glenn Greenwald

Is a Ukrainian War Inevitable? – “Are you on board with this? The American MSM seems intent on throwing American blood into the problem as well. Russian policy researcher Clint Ehrlich recently said that America is “sleepwalking towards conflict,” going on to say, “the reality is you and I are in danger of US conflict…the people that we love are in danger,” as he noted that the threat of war reaching American soil is not out of the question.

One reason Russia won’t invade Ukraine – “We are supposed to believe that the modern Machiavelli, Vladimir Putin, has had 100,000 Russian troops camped out in the snow for months on end, poised to invade Ukraine. No complaints from the Russian troops have been heard, so these must be really hard men, capable of enduring enormous suffering, sitting patiently in the snowdrifts while waiting for their leader’s order to advance. And if you don’t like that one, take several more. Then maybe the U.S. can focus on the real threat instead.” – David Archibald

Iran-Russia hit maximum strategy – “Three ain’t a crowd: The Iran-Russia summit this week, concurrent with RIC military drills in the Sea of Oman, in advance of a Xi-Putin meeting in two weeks, suggests a rapidly-advancing strategic vision for the three Eurasian powers.” – Pepe Escobar

The Old Black Magic Just Ain’t What It Used to Be – “It is 2022 and regime change formulas don’t work, color revolutionary magic which worked for decades doesn’t work and even expanding old-school military hardware around the troublesome Eurasian nations of the multipolar alliance no longer works. The old magic doesn’t work the way it used to for the ghouls in Washington, London and Brussels. It used to be so easy to wave that old wand and watch a troublesome president have his brains blown out on live TV or suffer a violent coup.” – Matthew Ehret

New Yemen violence, Washington backtracking, betray depressing lack of progress – “One year after promising to help end the war, Biden seems to be out of fresh ideas and going back to old playbooks.” – Daniel Larison

Investing Legend Turns Apocalyptic, Expects Stocks To Crater 50% In Largest Wealth Destruction In US History – “It was several years ago when Jeremy Grantham quietly turned from stock bull to vocal permabear, and while his market notes turned breathlessly alarmist, it wasn’t until early 2021 that Grantham’s warnings of an imminent crash became especially shrill… and spectacularly wrong.  But with stocks again swooning on fears Fed support of gradually fading, it didn’t take long for the 83-year-old Grantham to publish his most apocalyptic note yet, “Let The Wild Rumpus Begin” out this morning” – Tyler Durden  – GRANTHAM’S APPROACH IS BASED ON ANALYSIS AND NOT ARTIFICIALLY PROPPING UP THE MARKET LIKE THE FED DOES, HE WAS PROBABLY RIGHT ORIGINALLY AND MORE SO NOW AS THE FED IS OUT OF OPTIONS!!!!!!!

It’s Friday: and we should all be freaking out. – “If you only focus on the price-on-a-screen we call ‘markets’, freak about chatter of the Fed going 50bp in March or 25bp next week to try to “regain credibility”. At this stage, as cynics have long noted, it will probably take a market crash to get the Fed’s attention away from its “credibility”.” – Michael Every

Federal Reserve is taking the next step toward possibly launching a digital dollar – “And while the Fed, in the Thursday paper, avoids firm conclusions about how it would proceed, it suggested it does not favor offering accounts directly to consumers. “Such accounts would represent a significant expansion of the Federal Reserve’s role in the financial system and the economy,” according to the report. Instead, the central bank indicated it would favor letting private companies offer digital wallets that would let consumers hold and spend the currency.” – Tory Newmyer – SO THE CONSUMER WOULDN’T DIRECTLY HOLD IT. “I SEE 💡”  THE BANKS/PRIVATE COMPANIES WOULD HAVE THE DIGITAL WALLETS SO TECHNICALLY THEY COULD SHUT IT OFF, SO THEY WOULD HAVE THE ACTUAL CONTROL OF YOUR MONEY. AND ON TOP OF THAT, SINCE IT IS DIGITAL, THEY CAN TRACK EVERYTHING YOU SPEND IT ON, CONTROL AND SURVEILANCE, SOUNDS LIKE A WIN-WIN FOR THEM!!!!!!!!

Why You Don’t Say…. – “During the Delta wave of *****…. Prior infection, *******s provide best protection from ***** In that order. And it wasn’t close either. So being infected and recovered was anywhere from three to nearly five times as protective as being “vaccinated.” There was no statistically-significant improvement if “vaccinated” after infection. I put “vaccinated” in quotes because from this data it is clear that these are not *******s at all; What’s even worse for the jabs is that when Delta hit there were no jabs more than six months old, approximately, yet there were many infections that occurred more than a year prior. Therefore being infected was not only three to five times as protective it was protective over a much longer period as well!This isn’t my claim or data this is the CDC’s data. ” – Karl Denninger

COVID-19: Puppeteers and Scapegoats – “The “truth” and “reality” of “what really happened” may not yet be fully uncovered and “things are complicated”. So let’s set “what happened” and “what did they intend to accomplish” aside for a moment, so as not to get distracted. The point of this article is to explore something else in the context of the current situation, which is: who will be blamed? This sort of situation usually is resolved by puppeteers trying to expose and “punish” selected scapegoats, in order to deflect attention of the public away from themselves. In this situation, it may be wise to ask who the real puppeteers are, and who the scapegoats will be.” – Igor Chudov  – GOOD ARTICLE FROM IGOR!!!!!!

Covid home packs – “Who is on the side of health and who is on the side of superstition and crisis? You decide.” – El Gato Malo

What people in India have received to battle COVID successfully – “Look at the package contents and get even more angry with how the US government has failed its citizens.India, especially its largest state of Uttar Pradesh with about 250 million population, did a great job of attacking the COVID pandemic with the use of freely distributed ivermectin. The high density population received “care packages” that, sadly, the US government and public health system have failed to give Americans. ” – Joel S Hirschhorn

The health shamans are getting better at their jobs (as hucksters, not healers) – “The trick to doing a successful sun-dance is simple: check the schedule, see when sun rise is, and then do your dance an hour earlier.

In addition to the initial two-dose series plus booster, in 2022, you will be expected to be vaccinated again in the spring and in the fall. Moderna is focusing on how to make people want the vaccine. To overcome “compliance issues,” they will combine covid, flu, and RSV vaccines into a single shot for fall 2023.” – Justin Hart

NEWS ( LOTS ON RUSSIA AND BIDEN’S “DEPRESSER” TODAY )

The Joker: A Premonition – “It was two years and a few months ago – only a few months before lockdowns – that I dragged myself to see The Joker, a movie I dreaded but ended up respecting. “It’s a movie about one man’s descent into madness,” said the ticket taker. “Nothing else.” As unpleasant as it is, The Joker is the movie we needed to see to understand and then prepare for the horrors that this unchecked mentality can and did unleash on the world. The idea of lockdowns was literally unthinkable until it was suddenly mainstreamed in late February 2020. Only a few weeks later, it became a reality. We were told that it was all to stop a virus. It completely failed on the front but it achieved something else. Lockdowns and now mandates have empowered a ruling elite to try out a new theory of how life can work. The failure of their efforts is everywhere in evidence. Do they now stop? Or find new ways to destroy that create more chaos, more distractions, more instability, more randomness, more experiments with the unthinkable? The Joker did create copycats.” – Jeffrey A. Tucker

Is America Heading for a Systems Collapse? – “As the 2022 midterm elections approach, who will stop our descent into collective poverty, division—and self-inflicted madness?” – Victor Davis Hanson

Perilous Times – “They are made worse by the government’s political reaction to lawless behavior, which is a greater threat to personal liberty than the behavior it seeks to punish. Last week, the feds obtained an indictment of 11 members of the Oath Keepers for their role in trashing the Capitol building and attempting to interfere with the functions of government on Jan. 6, 2021. But did they really agree to overthrow the government by force? Here is the backstory.” – Andrew P. Napolitano

Be Honest, You Don’t Really Care About the Uyghurs Either – “Think about it, and be honest with yourself – have you changed anything about your life, in any way, because of what the evil Chinese communists are doing to the Uyghurs? I’m betting it’s nothing. What China is doing is horrible, but it hasn’t impacted your life at all.” – Derek Hunter

Has the pandemic killed populism? – “According to a study published by academics from the University of Cambridge, support for populist parties and politicians has ‘collapsed’ during the pandemic. The study claims that, during the pandemic, people throughout the world have decided to reject populist politicians in favor of experts and technocrats. The report, The Great Reset: Democratic Attitudes, Populism, and the Pandemic, claims that by the summer of 2020, the conviction that experts should be free to make decisions ‘according to what they think best for the country’ had risen 14 points to 62% in Europe and 8 points to 57% in the United States.” – Frank Furedi  -AND THAT’S WHAT THE TECHNOCRATS WANT, PART OF THE “BIGGER PICTURE”. THE SHEEP BETTER BE CAREFUL WHAT THEY WISH FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When Joe Biden speaks, sane people are horrified – “If there was any doubt that Joe Biden is unfit for the office of president of the United States, yesterday’s marathon press conference put such qualms to rest. But the signs have been there all along, while his decline into incoherent totalitarian irascibility is accelerating.” – Patricia McCarthy

Biden asked why Americans think he’s not ‘mentally fit’ – “US President Joe Biden said he has “no idea” why a growing number of voters see him as mentally unfit, after a new survey found a large proportion of respondents are in doubt of his intellectual capacity.” – RT  – CLUELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CNN Scrambles To Explain Away Joe Biden Saying 2022 Midterms Could Be “Illegitimate” – “Well, this is awkward…” – Paul Joseph Watson

Fake Biden Again Shames Himself on the World Stage – “It’s why he’s largely kept under wraps, showing up only occasionally for short periods before ushered away from public view. The regime he represents is the most recklessly dangerous in US history. At home, it’s waging all-out war to exterminate maximum numbers of unwanted people by kill shots and all else flu/covid related with maximum harm in mind. It’s heading the nation toward greater despotism than already. Abroad, it’s pushing things for aggression against nonbelligerent, nonthreatening Russia. Along with reciting a litany of bald-faced Big Lies, the fake Biden ignored the most dismal state of the nation in modern memory.” – Stephen Lendman

Jen Psaki Decides to Pee on Your Leg and Tell You It’s Raining – “I like to imagine Jen Psaki finishing off her sixth straight cigarette at around the time the presser ended, just being thankful the train-wreck finally ended. Then it was off to perform clean-up duty. So, how do you spin the fact that Biden twice claimed the 2022 election wouldn’t be legitimate unless he got his garbage “voting rights” bill bassed?” – Bonchie

Biden told one absolute truth during his press conference – “Biden, speaking the absolute truth, stated, “I have probably outperformed what anybody thought would happen.” Yes, Joe, you did outperform what anybody thought would happen, but it’s nothing to boast about.” – Andrea Widburg  – YEP, EVERYONE KNEW HE WAS GOING TO SCREW EVERYTHING UP AND HE CERTAINLY OUTPERFORMED IN THAT DEPARTMENT!!!!!

How Scared of November Are the Democrats? They Fear Populist Tulsi Gabbard – “Since the day she announced she wouldn’t be running for re-election in 2020 I knew Tulsi Gabbard was distancing herself from the Democratic Party for a potential Presidential run in 2024. It was clear she was being schmoozed by the DNC and Davos to become a major player from the moment she was first elected to Congress in 2012. But something happened on the way to Gabbard’s ascension to the top of the U.S. political scene, her conscience got the better of her. I’ve followed Gabbard for years and watched her carefully, knowing full well about her past associations with Davos. Her past involvement with these folks is what holds lot of people back from supporting her, and I’m more than okay with them remaining skeptical. Trust, but verify and all that.” – Tom Luongo

How did Fox News become the voice of reason? Graham Dockery – “Tucker Carlson opined at length on Tuesday night against going to war over Ukraine, arguing that such a conflict would be “incredibly destructive.” Carlson’s guest, analyst Clint Ehrlich, expounded on this, stating that bringing Ukraine into NATO – the plan that triggered the current descent toward war – would not serve US strategic interests, or those of NATO itself.” – Graham Dockery  – NOT ALL OF FOX IS A VOICE OF REASON, HANNITY HAS BEEN PUSHING FOR MORE ACTION AGAINST RUSSIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why a War Will be Good for Russia – “The Russia-NATO talks have taken the confrontation to a new level. Moscow’s position in this case – and this is a new and important element – is not reactive and not passive, but offensive. In big politics, only force decides everything. “For real” means “by force. Moscow is taking a serious swing. And now it is impossible to take a step back, otherwise what for was it to take a swing at? We Russians never wanted a war. But we have always fought. And we have always won.” – Alexander Dugin – IT IS SAID THAT PUTIN IS INFLUENCED BY DUGIN, IT MIGHT BE WELL TO TAKE NOTICE AS TO WHAT HE IS SAYING!!!!!!

Putin Could Take All of Europe in the Blink of an Eye – Its Time to be AWAKE – not WOKE – Martin Armstrong

Russia, Ukraine et al: What Next? – “To Moscow, Ukraine is not the problem, Washington is.The current propaganda meme in Washington is that Russia is going to “invade Ukraine” and absorb it. It will not: Ukraine is a decaying, impoverished, de-industrialised, divided, corrupt and decaying mess; Moscow does not want to take responsibility for the package. Unfortunately the Blinkens, Sullivans, Farkas’, Nulands and others who seem to be driving USA policy don’t understand any of this.” – Patrick Armstrong

America is Very Unstable (VIDEO) with Dr. Paul Craig Roberts – “The West is continually antagonizing Russia (PCR is referring primarily to Ukraine, Georgia and Kazakhstan). This will eventually lead to some kind of conflict. If it is a conventional war, the West does not have a chance—no chance whatsoever. So, what would Washington do when it’s faced with a massive defeat? It would save face by resorting to nukes. That’s the way Washington is. So, it’s very dangerous. It’s extremely dangerous to make the Russians feel threatened, and when they tell you (Washington D.C) that, you ignore it. You don’t hear, and you make them feel more threatened. . . . This is just madness, and it opens up the prospects of military confrontation. I guarantee you that the Russians are not going to allow NATO to take in Ukraine and Georgia.” – Greg Hunter

What has really pushed even the most loyal of Johnson’s acolytes over the edge is not partygate itself, but the PM’s inability to account for it. Johnson’s unbelievable excuses have, at times, been even more insulting than his hosting of house parties as he put the rest of the nation under house arrest.” – Fraser Myers  – LOOKS LIKE HE’S TRYING TO SAVE FACE. SEE DISCUSSION BELOW!!!!!!

DISCUSS: Johnson ends “plan B” Covid restrictions in England – “All mask mandates lifted Vaccines certificates no longer required work from home orders rescinded UK Prime Minister has announced the end of all restrictions allegedly brought in to combat the spread of the “Omicron variant”.

ECONOMIC NEWS

Consumer Sentiment at 10-Year Low – “Joe Biden is telling us the economy is back on track. And the Federal Reserve insists it can slow down the inflation freight train. But the average American isn’t quite so sanguine.” – Peter Schiff

That tightness you’re feeling? Rock, meet hard place. – “The inflation-genie is out of the bottle. To put her back in, they need to stop the easy-money policies, but that will crash the markets, a cascade of debt-deflation (like 2008) that also torpedoes the real economy. So, which will it be, inflation or depression? Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, and Let’s Go Brandon will blame industry – the evil meatpackers, they’re making record profits while Americans suffer. Bomb-throwers on the right will blame labor; people won’t roll up their sleeves to earn an honest dollar, they just want more handouts. They’ll do what crooked, feckless politicians do, point fingers while they raid the coffers, stifle the real economy with regulation, and choke on their own propaganda. There’s no alternative to the two-headed monster, price inflation and/or debt deflation. If we don’t completely destroy the currency, we’re likely to get both.” – The Bad Daddy

Stocks and Awe: The Federal Reserve Regime Change is Here! – “The Everything Bubble is bursting, and the Fed has barely even begun its war on inflation.” – David Haggith

China easing rates triggers economic divergence, and highlight potential distortion risks – “As the West reopens, China’s lockdowns remain draconian. It has eased rates on the back of growth concerns. The result is growing monetary divergence, and China looks set to go down the same monetary experimentation route the West is now trying to reverse.” – Bill Blain

Getting Emotional: A Bi-Polar Dollar vs. a Sane Precious Metal – “As we see below, however, the stability of the Fed-contorted US Dollar is akin to a three-legged chair on the deck of the Titanic. In short, the USD can and will wabble in many emotional directions before sinking. In fact, recent signs from a bi-polar Greenback suggest its hitherto rising strength may be coming to end, despite: 1) an increasingly hawkish Fed, 2) rising rates and 3) otherwise dollar bullish consensus. So which way is the USD headed? Up or down? The answer is yes.” – Matthew Piepenburg

A Great Gold Day And A Stellar Silver Day! Looks Like Our Bankers Are FINALLY BAILING OUT! – Harvey Organ

Is Citigroup Under Orders from Its Regulators to Break Itself Up? – “The last thing that Fed Chairman Powell needs in his second term are the sleazy details of the Fed’s trading scandal being released by investigators and to have to bail out the same megabank that Fed Chair Bernanke secretly bailed out from December 2007 through at least mid-July 2010. Obviously, we’re talking about Citigroup.” – Pam Martens and Russ Martens
