THE BIG PICTURE

“Officer Safety” – “We hear that term – officer safety – a lot. It’s interesting because the last thing most of us feel when we seen an “officer” in our rearview mirrors is “safe.” Why is that? Well, it’s basically for the same reason that a chicken doesn’t feel safe when it notices a hawk perched on a branch above the coop. It’s a predator vs. prey situation. And that is exactly the situation.When you see an “officer” hiding in a cutout by the side of the road you know he is not looking for criminals. He is awaiting his prey. People who “speed” and who do not have the required (and up to date) ear tags displayed. Who are not wearing a seat belt and other such made-up offenses that involve no criminality because they involve no harm done to anyone else or even the person who is “pulled over” by the “officer.” ” – Eric Peters – THAT’S WHAT HAPPENS IN A POLICE STATE, AND DON’T DARE TO DISAGREE WHEN PULLED OVER, YOU MAY END UP DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!

New Kennedy universal vaccination platform—huh?? Excuse me?? – “This is big. Kennedy and HHS have just launched a new plan for vaccination in America. A universal platform of some kind. The official announcement is studded with references to viruses. Protection against this one, that one, the other one. (None of the viruses exists.) The idea is: a single vaccine would protect against multiple viruses, including possible pandemic strains.” – Jon Rappoport

Arrest Dr. Fauci Now A Case for Criminal Accountability – “Why this has not been done in the first 100 days of Trump’s presidency is beyond the pale. He could be nailed for many reasons, yet he is free as a bird, though I would not want to be him.” -Dr. Sircus

Evidence that autism rates increase with introduction of more vaccines and broader diagnostic criteria – “It turns out there are inflection points and they point to real-time significant events that are inextricably-linked to the increasing autism rates” – Jessica Rose

MKULTRA: The Hidden Hand | Part 4 – The Mirror – “Throughout this series, we’ve traced mind control’s evolution: from MKULTRA’s laboratory experiments on unwitting subjects, through the theatrical staging of celebrity programming, to the technological scaling that brings these methods to billions through networked devices. Now we reach the final phase—the moment we must confront what these systems reveal about consciousness itself and the battle for cognitive freedom.” – Joshua Stylman  – THE FIRST 3 PARTS HAVE BEEN LINKED!!!!

Europe’s blackouts are a warning for Americans – “The effort to purge fossil fuels from economies and reshape the global economy through heavy-handed regulations, wealth transfers, and centralized planning was always tinged with economic hubris.” – Jon Miltimore

Scientists Engineer Chimeric Bird Flu Virus with Weaponized Traits in Alarming Gain-of-Function Study: ‘Virology Journal’ – “South Korea combines three bird flu viruses into a single engineered mutant, increasing viral stability, altering host targeting, and enhancing human cell entry” – Jon Fleetwood

Satanic “Science”: The Horrifying Truth – Smallpox Vaccine Manufacturing (Untold History) – “Proof that what you don’t know *can* hurt you…” – Agent131711

George Soros: NATO should be used as a tool to usher in a New World Order – “In 1993, George Soros penned an essay about using NATO and NGOs as tools to move the world towards a New World Order; a world of “open societies.” The conceptual framework Soros was referring to was the concept of open and closed societies. As we all know, Soros has been promoting open societies and launched the Open Society Foundations in 1993 to this end. Using the word “open” is misleading. Soros’ concept of open society is not what most people think it is and not what his Foundation portrays it to be.” – Rhoda Wilson

What We Aren’t Told About Osteoporosis – “How conventional osteoporosis care often makes things worse and the forgotten ways to regain bone health.” – A Midwestern Doctor

NEWS

There Will Be Boundaries – “It has been apparent for years that Mr. Trump’s symbolic role as a father figure is the most deeply resented feature of his role in US politics.It also appears that many men in this country likewise get this, perhaps because nature conditions them early on to understand that some day they might have to play the role of father, meaning they will have to push back hard against emotional disorder, hysteria, illogic, and untruth, and violence. Hence, you might see the peril of living in a land with so many fatherless households. This lamentable state of things defines the Democratic Party, where raging, inchoate, resentment-driven Jacobinism dwells, a party now with no leader, a household with no father, no one to regulate its frenzied, power-seeking behavior. This also tells you how the Democratic Party has become the party run by women, and by particular types of women” – James Howard Kunstler

The West Eats Itself – “Western governments undermine elections, religious freedom, free markets, and free speech. The same Western leaders who speak endlessly about “protecting Democracy” continue to rig elections, outlaw political parties, and prosecute candidates. Germany has declared Alternative for Germany — now the country’s most popular party — an “extremist group” on par with domestic terror organizations. The European Union helped Marxist globalists in Romania invalidate a presidential election and ban the winner from office. France and Brazil have followed the U.S. example of bringing ludicrous criminal charges against popular anti-Establishment politicians, and while President Trump overcame the sham prosecutions targeting him, Marine Le Pen and Jair Bolsonaro are fighting just to survive. ” – J.B. Shurk

The Bell Tolls for All White Gentile Ethnicities – “The Vice President and Secretary of State of the United States have called attention to the tyrannical behavior of the current German government, a corrupt anti-democratic government, controlled by Israel, that is holding on to power by designating its rival, AfD, the rapidly growing second largest party as “extremist.” Recent polls indicate that the AfD has pulled even and perhaps a bit ahead of the government that is trying to suppress it. By applying the “extremist” label to its rival, the government gives itself the power to use its spy agencies to keep the AfD under surveillance. This permits the current corrupt government to know in advance the AfD’s electoral plans while demonizing the AfD as so extreme that it must remain under surveillance. On what grounds is the AfD designated extremist?” – Paul Craig Roberts

Trump Proposes Cuts to ATF After Biden’s Weaponization of Agency – Tom Knighton

No, State Media and Democracy Don’t Go “Hand in Hand.” Just the Opposite – “In the age of digital censorship, state media is just as likely to be a threat to democracy as a boon to it” – Matt Taibbi

Something Is Seriously Wrong With Michelle Obama – “If you had told me just a few years ago that Michelle Obama would be a presidential candidate, I’d have said she was the most formidable opponent the Democratic Party could put up. Yet, as I sit here in May of 2025, I’m not even sure she’d survive a primary, much less be competitive in a general election. Things have changed dramatically, and the spiral is continuing for Barack Obama’s wife. Her new podcast has not only bombed in the ratings, but she’s been using the platform to dish on her husband and call America racist while showing an astonishing amount of entitlement and lack of self-awareness. It’s as if she’s going through a mid-late-life crisis, and that includes rather noticeable changes to her appearance.” -Bonchie

A Brief History of Cinco de Mayo (VIDEO) – “Featuring the History Guy – Ohio Barbarian

German political class gleefully planning the wider persecution of Alternative für Deutschland and its supporters, because Hitler – “As a direct consequence of this transparently orchestrated publicity campaign masquerading as an official “investigation,” we now have to have unceasing constant very concerned discussions across all print and video media about why the AfD are so bad and what we should do about it.” – eugyppius

Labeling the AfD ‘extremist’ will backfire terribly – “The popular opposition party has been blacklisted, a big step down the slippery slope towards a total ban” – Tarik Cyril Amar

Europe is erasing WWII’s truth – but Nazi crimes must never be forgotten – “Fascism has resurged in Europe, with neo-Nazis masquerading as nationalists – most notably in Ukraine, where a far-right regime tightens its grip.” – Sonja van den Ende

Will We See Mushroom Clouds Over Kashmir? – “One of the world’s, oldest and most dangerous conflicts went critical this past week as nuclear armed India and Pakistan traded threats of war. The Kashmir conflict is the oldest one before the UN. India’s right-wing politicians are loudly demanding revenge strikes against Pakistan as PM Modi stirs up anti-Muslim hatred in India – following the example set in America by his new ally, President Donald Trump. Pakistan is calling on its key ally, China, for support. India and China are at scimitars drawn over their poorly demarcated Himalayan border –another legacy of British imperialism.” – Eric S. Margolis

The Department of Empire – “And Its Bloated Imperial Budget” – Bill Astore

Miller Would Be a Disastrous Choice – “Miller is a dangerous ideological zealot. The president reminded us yesterday that things can always get worse: U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday he is considering naming his deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller as national security adviser and expects to appoint a successor to Mike Waltz within six months.” – Daniel Larison

Israel Approves ‘Conquering Gaza, Holding Territories’ Ahead Of Trump’s Mideast Trip – Tyler Durden

It Was Never About Hostages. It Was Never About Hamas. – “There is absolutely no excuse for continuing to babble about hostages and Hamas after the US and Israel said the goal is the complete ethnic cleansing of Gaza. Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday that freeing the Israeli hostages in Gaza was not his top priority, suggesting instead that defeating Hamas should take precedence over a hostage deal.” – Caitlin Johnstone

ZIONISM a deception with many layers and none of them are pretty. – “Zionism’s roots can be traced back to the earliest Christian Crusades. Zionism was originally a movement to acquire the Holy Land for the Catholic Church and its Papacy. Zionists are, therefore, the arch enemies of all Jews.” – Frances Leader -INTERESTING READ FROM FRANCES!!!

Texas Students Could Be Punished for Quoting the Bible If Gov. Abbott Signs New Bill Into Law: SB 326/HB 239 – “Christian theology and history would fall under Texas’ new definition of “hate”—silently criminalized through a foreign speech code never shown to the public.” – Jon Fleetwood

ECONOMIC NEWS

WE HAVE A PROBLEM… THE DEBT/CREDIT LIQUIDITY MARKET IS FLASHING A MAJOR WARNING SIGN.(video – “We need to talk people. We need to talk big time. Let’s just put this into a perspective real quick, honestly, and you have to be blind not to see what’s happening with regard to the economy  Here and around the world it is being systematically destroyed via vast debt expansion on a scale we’ve never seen before in history. Nothing has come close to this” – Gregory Mannarino

Trump-Led Agency Warns America Is Heading for an Economic Hurricane – “In a generalized way, a nation’s economy is the single most important thing for its citizens. The global economy matters, too – in a general way. But not as much as our local economy. Think about it. If the economy is strong, more people are more likely to be able to easily feed and house” – Peter Reagan

Job Numbers Are Up. Paychecks Aren’t – “Both Good And Bad News In The Latest Jobs Report Do we dare start taking the BLS jobs numbers at face value? Can the days of Lou Costello Labor Math truly be over now that Donald Trump is in the White House? Or is that all just wishful thinking?” – Peter Nayland Kust

The Terminal Rot in Corporate America – “Corporate America took advantage of the Covid shortages and fiscal largesse to profiteer on a scale criminals could only dream of. One of humanity’s most pernicious traits is the ease with which we habituate to conditions over time that we would have rejected out of hand if the transition had been sudden.” – Charles Hugh Smith

Here’s Why Tariffs Won’t Bring Back Manufacturing – Peter Schiff

Small Businesses Will Get Hit the Hardest by Trump’s Tariffs – “Small businesses were already struggling. Tariffs will end the viability of many.” -Mish

US Tariff on Auto Parts Goes Into Effect – “A 25 percent tariff on imported automobile parts took effect on May 3, a significant step in President Donald Trump’s effort to reduce U.S. dependence on foreign supply chains and boost domestic manufacturing jobs. The new duties—authorized under a March 26 proclamation—apply to key components used in passenger vehicles and light trucks, including engines, transmissions, and electrical systems. The tariffs affect imports from all countries, although parts that meet U.S.–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) requirements were exempted in a bid to preserve the tightly interwoven North American auto supply chain.” – Tom Ozimek

Unsold Inventory of Homes for Sale in Florida Pile up Further in April. Some Metros Start Seeing Gluts, Miami Still Lags a Little – Wolf Richter

Chinese-US Imports Being Diverted To Canada Amid Trade War – “Many Chinese exports bound for the U.S. have been rerouted to Canada to skirt tariffs as the trade war continues to escalate between the U.S. and many of its international partners, This means that, just like Europe which is facing a deflationary tsunami as Chinese dumping is unleashed on its now largest trading partner, Canadian consumers will soon have an abundance of discount goods as warehouse storage reaches its capacity. As much as 50% of consignments from China were diverted to Canada in mid-April as many industries look to stockpile their inventory north of the border instead of in the US.” – Tyler Durden

THE BIG PICTURE

Effort Matters, Win Or Lose – Peter Nayland Kust  – PETER’S PROVERBS ARE GREAT READS, THAT’S WHY I LINK THEM EVERY SUNDAY!!!

Twisting the Truth: Setting the Record Straight on Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Autism Statement – “At no point did he attack or diminish the value of individuals on the spectrum. He merely pointed out the unsustainable burden on families and the system as the rates continue to climb. And yet, media outlets and critics have twisted his words. They framed him as cold, ableist, or anti-autism. These mischaracterizations are not only false, but they also deflect from the real issue… our society is facing an autism epidemic, and we’re doing very little to uncover the root causes or provide meaningful support.” – Tracy Slepcevic

Geoengineering Watch Global Alert News, May 3, 2025 (VIDEO) – “Climate engineering/weather warfare operations aren’t just a dangerous “proposal”, it’s an ongoing and rapidly worsening reality.” – Dane Wigington

Secretary of HHS Kennedy LIES About HHS Funding Child Sex Trafficking – What Really Happened to Virginia Giuffre the Epstein Victim? – “HHS Secretary Kennedy announced this week at a Trump cabinet meeting commemorating Trump’s first 100 days that “HHS had eliminated child trafficking.” Ah, but only for the children who went missing under Biden apparently. This is a total lie, because it has been well known for years now that the United States is the #1 country in the world when it comes to child sex trafficking, and that most of the children who are child sex slaves in the U.S. came out of the U.S. Foster Care system, which is funded by HHS. In 2019, under Trump 1.0, Mike Pompeo, who was Trump’s Secretary of State, even admitted this. So is Secretary Kennedy eliminating funding for the Child Welfare system which includes the nation’s Foster Care system, the world’s #1 child trafficking agency in the world?? Hardly. In fact, he is actually INCREASING it!” – Brian Shilhavy

The Second World – “A tour of “you don’t wanna go there”. People are familiar with the common construct of “The Third World.” They are also familiar with the idea of “The First World. ”What’s interesting to me is the idea of how one becomes the other and the presumption of the causality and the pathways by which that occurs. It’s worth some exploration.” – El Gato Malp

The Enemy of My Enemy -“One of the most effective thought-terminating clichés is “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” It is particularly effective because it works on both people who are, let’s say, not extraordinarily intelligent, and on more intelligent people, people who you wouldn’t expect to fall for such simplistic tricks. It is especially effective in hyper-polarized sociocultural environments, like the one we’re in currently, where people feel like they need to be on one side of whatever. Thought-terminating clichés you might be familiar with include, but are not limited to, “you’re either with us or you’re with the terrorists,” “trust the science,” “trust the plan,” “it’s not perfect, but it’s better than the alternative,” “it’s just common sense,” “freedom isn’t free,” “that’s just the way it is,” and the list goes on. Thought-terminating clichés are designed to do exactly what it sounds like they are designed to do … terminate thought, particularly critical thought.” – CJ Hopkins

Pope Trump Trolls The Vatican – “Why do Donald Trump and his social media team resort to such juvenile tactics, especially considering his position as the most powerful national leader on Earth? Triggering people on a daily basis seems to be part of the strategy of his team. My contention is that Donald Trump is an elaborately constructed persona, a chaos agent, designed to provide smoke and mirrors for the ongoing projects of the American Deep State and its globalist managers.” – 009

Mark Carney could tear Canada apart – “New separatist movements threaten to rain on the Liberals’ parade” – Kevin Yuill

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Shuffles, Lies, Attacks & Pretend Elections – “National Security Advisor Mike Waltz is now slated to be Ambassador to the United Nations because nobody cares who the UN Ambassador shares Signal chats with. Some Dutch dude posted a Google Earth photo of a patch of Yemen and said Houthis were on it, so naturally somebody in the Pentagon ordered a drone strike there, which successfully wiped out three families. There has been absolutely no movement on Trump’s campaign promises to eliminate the income tax on tips and retirement income.” – Ohio Barbarian – THE BARBARIAN’S WEEKLY NEWS WRAP UP, GOOD AS USUAL!!!

Zuckerberg Tells a Truth – “Ready for Your AI “Friends”? If you’re familiar with Facebook, every personal contact you make on there is categorized as a “friend.” When you want to add someone to your Facebook page, you “friend” them. Alternatively, when you want to get rid of someone, you “unfriend” them. Now, the typical Facebook user has roughly 200-300 “friends.” What Zuckerberg is unintentionally revealing in that snippet above is that Facebook “friends” aren’t real friends. They’re mostly acquaintances. People we’ve met once or twice, maybe even people we’ve never met. They’re not close friends, intimate friends, “real” friends. That’s where Zuckerberg comes in, yet again, riding to the rescue with AI “friends.” Yes, he’s suggesting that the solution to loneliness in America, our lack of intimacy, is AI programs that will be your “friend,”” – Bill Astore   – HAVE SAID THAT FOR YEARS ABOUT SO-CALLED FRIENDS ON FACEBOOK!!!

Nuclear Deterrence Requires Only Dozens Of Warheads — Not Thousands – “America’s doomsday arsenal is as risky as it is wasteful. Over the next decade, the US government plans to spend nearly $1 trillion on its nuclear arsenal — with the actual cost certain to run even higher than that. The huge outlay is driven in part by the sheer size of America’s doomsday-weapon collection, which comprises an estimated 3,700 deployed or stockpiled nuclear warheads, not counting another 1,500 that are purportedly “retired” and awaiting dismantlement.” – Brian McGlinchey

First they kill the Alawites and the Christians, now the Druze – who is next in Syria? – “The world, its politicians, and the media remain silent – dead silent – about the events in what I now call the former Syria. Syria is being Balkanized; worse, it is being ethnically cleansed – at least, that is the goal – just like Palestine. Since December 2024, following the fall of President Assad’s government, a spiral of violence, ethnic cleansing, murder, and retribution has unfolded. Western media and mainstream Arab outlets, often dominated by Sunni perspectives like Al-Jazeera and Al-Arabiya, stay silent or dismiss the ethnic cleansing as mere battles against the last remnants of resistance from former President Assad’s government.” – Sonja van den Ende

Ukrainian Drones Have Been Targeting Historic Orthodox Churches In Russia – “And of course, since then the Ukraine government has actively and openly persecuted Ukraine’s largest Orthodox church for simply maintaining spiritual communion with the Moscow Patriarchate.”- Tyler Durden  – OBVIOUSLY UKRAINE IS ANTI-CHRISTIAN AS WELL AS ANTI-RUSSIAN !!!!

Washington believes the dollar can withstand whatever it throws at it. That, no matter what, the dollar will be the reserve currency for global trade and commerce.

The Sweet Sorrow Of Warren Buffett’s Parting – “Coincidental timing, or statement about what American has become? Buffett was the perfect balance of cutthroat investor and public relations polish.

He was the cornerstone of the list of reasons people globally wanted to invest in American exceptionalism.” – Quoth the Raven

THE BIG PICTURE

Stripping the Word of its Power – “Ever since America’s unofficial second constitution of Civil Rights was set at odds with the one the Founders bequeathed to the nation, American whites have been on the defensive. In every single one of these cases – I should probably say ‘almost every’, to be careful, but I can’t actually think of an exception – when the full facts became available the black ‘victim’ is revealed to be significantly less sympathetic than the media initially pretended. George Floyd was a career criminal high on enough fentanyl to drop a rhinoceros, which is almost certainly why he died. Michael Brown was attacking the police officer that shot him. Trayvon Martin was attacking George Zimmerman. Rodney King was high on PCP and resisting arrest. Those facts never really mattered, because by the time they came out, the narrative had been set, the riots had happened, white people had been sufficiently cowed, and the news cycle had moved on.The Karmelo Anthony case is entirely distinct from this. Anthony is not sympathetic in the slightest. There is no question here of who is the victim, and who the criminal. ” – John Carter  – GOOD READ FROM JOHN!!!

Here Is Trump: From the Mouth of Trump – “I almost hesitate to post this, not because it does not tell the tale of a maniacal narcissistic dictator, and perverted mind, but because it barely scratches the surface of the ego and absolute danger posed by such an evil character as Trump. What is happening here and now in this country is unprecedented in history. The globalization and technocratic buildup is tremendous, and moving at lightening speed toward horrendous times ahead. These are but a minute handful of quotes and statements by Trump, exposing extreme contradiction, lies, propaganda, hypocrisy, immorality, and outright madness of this man who was specifically selected to be in this position in order to accomplish the agendas of his controllers.” – Gary D. Barnett

A Bankruptcy of Credibility – “Was the United States a better nation in its 1st 175 years than now? It was. Most Americans were Christians, sitting through church sermons—not corporate perversion. Russia/China are misunderstood in the West. Putin lives for the benefit of his nation and its people. Russia is a democracy where one best not go against the interests of the nation. Don’t misunderstand me. Russia may be the most authoritarian democracy on the planet, but it’s by design—with ethical consideration. China is another nation of authoritarian rule, but with a caveat of caring for the welfare of its people. I’ll get to that, but 1st, consider conditions in the US.” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com

And we continue to be “represented” by carnival barkers and grifters with capped teeth. Behind these shameless frontmen/frontwomen/fronttheythems are an illusory group we still can’t really identify. Jews? Freemasons? The Vatican? I think it’s something like the Illuminati, but of course I have no real knowledge. I haven’t been invited to a single Bilderberg meeting, or all male funfest at Bohemian Grove. But as Truman’s Secretary of Defense James Forrestal told Joe McCarthy, before someone pushed him out of a window at Bethesda Naval Hospital, if there wasn’t a giant conspiracy, once in a while they’d make a mistake in our favor.

The targets seem to be the “less loyal” among the current tribe of administration appointees and selected leftovers and hangers-on from the Biden regime. The shuffling of leaker-by accident NatSec Advisor Waltz over to the UN and the firing of his deputy Mr. Wong is what Trump voters wanted. Israel, maybe not so much. The state demands loyalty. The loyalty construct is modeled by both major parties, all the way down to local Republican and Democratic committees, who operate in generally polite Bolshevik-mode.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

JB Pritzker Goes Scorched Earth on His Own Party – “The Illinois governor is on a mission, blaming Dems and taking GOP names” – Corey Smith

We Don’t Need An Executive Order To Bar Illegals From Social Security – We Need A Government That Obeys The Law – “If it takes an executive order to enforce laws that already bar illegal immigrants from Social Security, the problem isn’t policy—it’s a government that’s given up on enforcement” – Maureen Steele

It’s Our Turn – “For the left, it’s all part of living, destroying, humiliating others, trashing neighborhoods, ripping up signs, vandalizing Teslas is all part of their civic duty, because there’s always someone on the right who puts their efforts into fixing things and cleaning up the mess. It wasn’t LGBTQ and trannies that went into North Carolina to help the devastated towns and neighborhoods, it was the hillbillies and Amish. The right is hard to motivate, because they don’t respond well to being ordered about and most of them feel uncomfortable ordering others about. Instructing is not the same as ordering one to commit acts of destruction.” – T.L. Davis

At this point, it’s safe to say most of this chaff is nothing but that—a red herring meant to propagate the image of US as ‘in charge’ and taking ‘initiative’ in leading the world.

This Is The Biggest Economic Story Of 2025 So Far – Michael Snyder

Buffett’s $325 Billion Mistake – “Warren Buffett, the Oracle of Omaha, is facing a peculiar problem these days: he has too much cash. Berkshire Hathaway is sitting on an eye-watering $325 billion in dry powder, a record high. Historically, Buffett has always been eager to deploy capital when the odds are in his favor. But today, even he admits he’s struggling to find value in this overvalued market. Which leads to a fascinating question: could Buffett turn to silver, or even silver miners, as a way to put that cash to work?” – Sean Ring

How to Use Compost on the Homestead – “Compost is key to supercharging your garden soil, and whether you purchase it or make food scraps, manure, worm, or mushroom compost, you need to know how to use compost to get the most out of this black gold.” – Carolyn and Josh Thomas

How to Build an Underground Greenhouse – “One of the limiting factors in growing our own food is the length of the growing season, the time from the last frost in spring to the first frost in the fall. This varies, depending on the part of the country one lives in. The problem of short growing seasons is nothing new, farmers and gardeners have dealt with it for centuries. The gardeners, probably with the help of some Roman engineers, came up with an ingenious solution to their problem, creating the first greenhouse in the western world. Through the years, gardeners and farmers have experimented with the basic idea of greenhouses, finding ways to make the greenhouse absorb more sunlight and convert it to heat. This has made it possible to extend the growing season even more, improving their harvest.” – Bill White

Warning of Cashless Societies (There’s already a movement afoot within the U.S. to keep certain types of people out of grocery stores) – “A cashless society is a controlled society. If everything must go through an online banking or credit card process, then you have just lost virtually all control over what you buy. Anything that is not politically sanctioned(guns, ammo, body armor, helmets, particular books, particular website premium subscriptions, political donations, etc.) could very easily be vaporized overnight. ” – Clark Barnes  – GOOD ARTICLE.

THE BIG PICTURE

I Can’t Believe It’s Not Food! – “Trying to survive inside the empire of psychopathic killers: Part I—The “Food” Living in Europe for seventeen of the past twenty years and making the transatlantic journey west, I saw the culinary cultural contrasts up close, between healthy and fit people who value real food as part of daily life, and the ultra-processed gluttony on offer with fake foods inside the Empire of Elastic Waistbands. There are sugar or junk food taxes in countries like France, Hungary, Denmark, and Norway, which have had a tax on junk food since 1922. Instead of celebrating junk food as normal diet staples that can be purchased with government subsidies like food stamps, there’s a flavor of social disdain that marks obese gluttons.” – The Good Citizen

The Bodies Are Not Stacking Up… Again – “I think “our side” – generally speaking – ought to be careful not to fall into the trap the other side did, of buying into hysteria. Whatever the jabs did, they have not caused the predicted mass deaths. Just the same as “COVID” didn’t – notwithstanding the endless barrage of “coverage” of “the cases! the cases”! – if anyone remembers. Well, here we go again. Only now – five years later – it is “our side” that is falling into the same species of hysteria notwithstanding the absence of any evidence that people who’ve been “vaccinated” are dying en masse. You may remember predictions supposedly made by something called the Deagle Report that by 2025 something like half or even two-thirds of the population of the United States would be dead. Well, were approaching halfway through 2025 and this has not happened. Or even close.” – Eric Peters – SOME GOOD POINTS FROM ERIC. AND I ADMIT I HAVE BEEN GUILTY OF THIS.

The Long Game of Tony Blair: From Climate Optimism to Technocratic Control. – “In the final weeks of his time as UK Prime Minister in 2007, Tony Blair made an oddly casual but revealing remark about the climate crisis. “Don’t worry about the climate — technology will fix it.” Eighteen years later, we now know what he meant. On April 29, 2025, the Tony Blair Institute published a new climate strategy paper titled The Climate Paradox: Why We Need to Reset Action on Climate Change. At first glance, it appears to be a critique of current Net Zero policies — admitting they’re economically toxic, politically unpopular, and practically unworkable. But on closer reading, it reveals something much more significant: a polished blueprint for a global technocratic control system, built in the name of solving climate change through data, automation, and artificial intelligence.” – David Fleming

What’s Normal, Exactly? – “When a claque of deep state shills such as Norm Eisen, Chuck Schumer, Bill Kristol, David Brooks, and Larry Summers holler about Mr. Trump’s attempt to reform a depraved political culture as “an assault on norms,” are you not prompted to wonder what, exactly, those norms might be? Looks like they are describing a colossal matrix of racketeering operations in concert with an epic program of crypto-Marxist mind-fuckery, mountains of money purloined under color-of-law, swindles galore of practically every public enterprise, the capital city of a so-called republic fogged in gaslight to conceal a Satyricon of pedophilia, sodomy, and sado-masochism in every closet, cabinet, and pigeon-hole of the political class. So, along comes Mr. Trump for the second round, with a supernaturally able clean-up crew this time, and the monsters feeding off that depraved normality commence to shriek in mortal panic as the scaffold of their crimes gets methodically disassembled and secrets are revealed.” – James Howard Kunstler

War Between The US And Canada? Yes, It’s Now A Real Possibility – “A war between Canada and the US opening up a portal to hell might be a bit of a stretch, but recent events lead me to believe that there are very real ingredients coming together that could trigger an active conflict with our neighbors to the north. Furthermore, these factors do NOT necessarily revolve around the trade war; the trade war is secondary. There is something explosive going on under the surface of US/Canada relations and it could very well end with a US invasion to the north.” – Brandon Smith

After 100 Days Where Are We? – Paul Craig Roberts

IMF and World Bank: Crony Covid Crackdown Enablers – “Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent complained last week that the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund are suffering from “mission creep.” But Bessent announced that Trump will be “doubling down” on supporting the largest foreign aid gushers on earth. “Far from stepping back, ‘America First’ seeks to expand U.S. leadership in international institutions like the I.M.F. and World Bank,” Bessent declared. The IMF and World Bank have helped turn many foreign nations into kleptocracies – governments of thieves. Most importantly, neither the IMF nor the World Bank has any qualms about bankrolling tyranny.” – James Bovard

And the Emmy for Election Cheating Goes to… – “Anybody but them…Last fall’s “60 Minutes” interview of then-candidate Kamala Harris… now the subject of a $20 billion lawsuit by President Donald Trump… has been nominated for an Emmy Award for outstanding edited interview. In his lawsuit, Trump charges that the interview was deceitfully edited to make Harris look smarter than she is. And to think that “60 Minutes” was once a paragon of journalistic integrity… We are not talking about editing out “ums” and “ahs” here, but the nefarious replacement of whole interview answers with better ones. That kind of malicious editing… In other words, a fake interview. An Emmy for fake news?” – Jim McCraigh

National Endowment for Democracy Is Now Erasing Disclosure Data – “The overt replacement for the CIA’s foreign political action funding has transitioned back to covert funding, using ‘duty of care’ as a rationale.” – Lee Fang and Jack Poulson

TRUMP Art of The Deal: Ukraine Has No Rare Earth Minerals – “The watered down US/Ukraine Deal has created a new US colony in Europe. Greenland fell by the wayside and would have been a far cleaner and likely more valuable deal than Ukraine. Unfortunately, the only difference between Ukraine in 2014 and Ukraine in 2025 – is who is running the show. In 2014 – it was Soros et al. In 2025 it is Trump et al. Same deal, different names stamped on the graves. The most significant aspect being the rare earth minerals that may – or may not even exist. These minerals are critical in the manufacture of – everything including; all weapons and all tech. The US has little, China has most, and time was NOT in Trump’s favor. Sitting perilously over the new $1 trillion defense budget, these minerals are essential in order to re-load a viable military inventory in the event we want to take out The World … Lesson Learned: Civilizations didn’t die off because of climate change, they died off at the hands of the biggest marauders. He with the biggest stick – WINS.” – Helena Glass

Lefty policies come with additional costs – “When we’re discussing some leftist policy, we routinely discuss the cost. This is what the government will pay for whatever it is they want to do. Or save, if that’s remotely relevant. Yet there are second- and third-order costs that are routinely missed, if not outright unknowable.” – Tom Knighton

And so…. The opinion pieces begin.(VIDEO) – “Broadcaster claims Mark Carney did ‘sneaky underhanded’ things to get in office” – Sylvia Shawcross

Canadian Liberals Deploy Trump Derangement Syndrome to Retain Federal Power – “If Canada Had Its own National Security Apparatus, Not NATO, We Would be in a Good Position Diplomatically Play to Play off China Against the United States for Canadian National Advantage. As the election unfolded it became increasingly clear that Mark Carney is carrying on the enlarged legacy of Justin Trudeau as a full-fledged agent of the Chinese Communist Party led by Xi Jinping. Carney’s many-faceted personal and institutional involvements with the government of China is startling in its magnitude especially for those who don’t know much about the extent of China’s global influence. Right now Canada is betwixt and between the mounting cross-fire emanating from both China and the United States now led by US President, Donald Trump. Carney’s main tactic in taking over Canada’s top political role was to make himself the high priest of Trump derangement syndrome as the core principle of re-emergent Canadian nationalism.” – Anthony James Hall

The Dollar Falters as Gold Remains Stable – Peter Schiff

Ok, This is Starting to Get Serious – “OK, now things are starting to get serious. As I’ve noted over the past week, while the Fed twiddles its thumbs and frets about the potentially inflationary impact of tariffs, the real economy is rolling over. The American consumer accounts for 60%-70% of U.S. GDP. The consumer, not the Fed, is what drives the economy. And all signs are beginning to point towards the consumer being “tapped out.” In the last two weeks, management teams at Southwest Airlines, PepsiCo, Chipotle, and even Walmart have warned that consumers are cutting back on spending. It’s one thing to see one sector of the economy issue a warning. But when you’ve got multiple sectors (airlines, restaurants, consumer discretionary, and retail), all doing this at the same time, you know it’s getting serious. Well, we can now add McDonalds, the largest fast-food restaurant in the world, to the list of companies issuing major warnings.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Mayday markdowns – “Gold consolidates its rise from mid-December. The May Day holiday in China and with much of Europe shut as well, was an opportunity for the Comex shorts to punish the longs.

Oh Look, Jobs! – “Hmm…. the BLS shouteth forth… Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 177,000 in April, and the unemployment rate was unchanged at 4.2 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Employment continued to trend up in health care, transportation and warehousing, financial activities, and social assistance. Federal government employment declined. DOGE actually managed to cut a few people? Go figure. Oh wait…. it was only 9,000. So much for trumpeting a “big change” — NOT. Of course we must put more than 50,000 into the “health care” sector despite the civilian labor force increasing just 174,000 over the same month. If you believe that we are adding one doctor or nurse for every three and a half people, approximately whatever you’re smoking is definitely illegal — yes even in Michigan, Illinois and California.” – Karl Denninger

The new funds from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services include continued development of the vaccine, including a late-stage trial next year if those early study results are positive. But the project can be quicky redirected to target another form of influenza if a different threat than the H5N1 form of bird flu emerges, HHS officials stressed.” – AP  – MAHA, RIGHT BOBBY!!

The CIA said in January the pandemic was more likely to have emerged from a lab in China than from nature, after the agency had for years said it could not reach a conclusion on the matter. It said it had “low confidence” in its new assessment and noted that both lab origin and natural origin remain plausible.

Home Invasions on the Rise: Constitution-Free Policing in Trump’s America – “What the Founders rebelled against—armed government agents invading homes without cause—we are now being told to accept in the so-called name of law and order. Imagine it: it’s the middle of the night. Your neighborhood is asleep. Suddenly, your front door is splintered by battering rams. Shadowy figures flood your home, screaming orders, pointing guns, threatening violence. You and your children are dragged out into the night—barefoot, in your underwear, in the rain. Your home is torn apart. Your valuables seized. Your sense of safety, demolished. But this isn’t a robbery by lawless criminals. This is what terror policing looks like in Trump’s America: raids by night, flashbangs at dawn, mistaken identities, and shattered lives.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

The New Radical Right – “I’ve said it many times, and I’ll say it again: The Right can be just as dangerous to Liberty as the Left. Much of the unconstitutional/Orwellian/socialist/authoritarian laws and policies emanating from Washington, D.C., were put in place by the Right. The Gun Control Act of 1968, which is the granddaddy of all the nefarious gun control laws and policies under which the American people are now subjected, was supported by the largest so-called pro-Second Amendment organization in the U.S., the National Rifle Association (NRA). When the supposed “pro-life” party in D.C. controlled the House, Senate and White House under G.W. Bush, it was the Bush White House and GOP leaders in the House and Senate that killed Dr. Paul’s bill. And you can bet your last dollar that a Sanctity of Life Act has ZERO chance of becoming law with Trump in the White House and the GOP in control of both houses of Congress today. And when it comes to perpetual foreign wars (most on behalf of Israel) and a burgeoning police/surveillance state domestically, the Elephants and Donkeys are twins. Neither the Left nor the Right in D.C. ever saw a war they didn’t like or ever saw an expansion of government that tramples the Fourth Amendment that they didn’t support.” – Chuck Baldwin

Hilarious: New York Times Discovers Christians Wear Cross Necklaces, Gets Mocked Into Next Week – “The New York Times — “The Grey Lady” as it were — was once America’s “newspaper of record,”That ship sailed long ago, yet the venerable paper retains its “All the News That’s Fit to Print” motto. Wednesday’s edition of the Times included an article titled “A Hot Accessory, at the Intersection of Faith and Culture,” in which reporter Misty White Sidell, who covers shopping and fashion trends — yeah — for the paper, reported on her realization that some Christians not only wear crosses around their necks; but also they wear their crosses… wait for it… in public! Oh, the humanity! My first question is why wasn’t this isn’t “BREAKING” news across the legacy media? Perhaps Sidell, being the super sleuth she is, scooped the story before other outlets got to it. ” – Mike Miller

VERSES FOR THE DAY

Matthew 8:5-10    And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,  And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.  And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.  The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.  For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.  When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

THE BIG PICTURE

Not One Indictment – “Why is it that not a single “COVID” criminal has been indicted by Trump’s Justice Department or – in the case of pardoned criminals such as Dr. Fauci – compelled to testify before Congress and thus be placed in the position of having to tell the truth about what they did or lie about it again and thus be subject to criminal charges on that account? Why hasn’t there been a single arrest of anyone on the infamous Epstein List? There was an arrest made recently – of a judge who appears to have been one of Trump’s political enemies. What about enemies of the public such as Fauci and Brix and Albert Bourla and the dozens of state officials who morphed into Gesundheitsfuhrers during the “emergency”? Well, that might just explain it. Who declared – and never ended – the “emergency,” even long after it became clear there wasn’t one? Remember” – Eric Peters

Catherine Austin Fitts & Breakthrough Energy – “Weaponized Breakthrough Energy has been deployed, but no one wants to talk about it. Something she said caught my attention. She mentioned “Breakthrough Energy”, as well as the 2012 “Breakthrough Energy Conference”, held in the Netherlands, where speakers talked about Nikola Tesla, the various inventors who have created these “free energy devices” and just how dangerous it is to be an inventor.” – 9/11 Revisionist – SEVERAL SUBSTACK WRITERS HAVE COMMENTED ON THIS PARTICULAR INTERVIEW. I’VE LINKED CATHERINE FOR YEARS. BOTH HER ARTICLES AND INTERVIEWS. LINKED THE TUCKER INTERVIEW YESTERDAY. FOR MORE JUST PUT HER NAME IN THE SITE’S SEARCH BAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The discovery was made by independent researcher Kevin McKernan, who is now sounding the alarm over the findings. McKernan details the findings in a post on his Substack.” – Frank Bergman  – WAS GOING TO LINK McKERNAN’S ARTICLE YESTERDAY, BUT IT’S PRETTY TECHNICAL AND MOST PEOPLE WOULD PROBABLY NOT WADE THROUGH IT.

Measles: A Balanced Perspective (VIDEO) – “An informational resource for people who want just the facts, no agenda. We are told that the only way to protect yourself and everyone around you is to be vaccinated, and to be wary of ‘misinformation’ on social media, such as the idea that the MMR vaccine causes autism or that Vitamin A can cure measles. On the other hand, in independent media there has been reactionary reporting declaring measles to be non-harmful, warning people off vaccination altogether, and promoting alternative treatments. What there has been little of is balanced presentation of evidence-based information on measles and its prospective treatments to enable YOU to make informed decisions.” – Rebekah Barnett and Robyn Chuter

NEWS

This Is An Aberration – “What we have seen over the past decade, especially since Barack Obama opened the doors to Marxism, is a diversion from democracy (the republic) and embracing communism. It’s a much slower transition where the population is accustomed to freedom rather than tsarist rule, monarchy or dictatorship, but it has happened. In order to move on, one must recognize this period as an aberration, a moment when the United States flirted with an alternate form of government and found it to be oppressive, in violation of privacy, speech and other rights inherent to Americans. It’s not over, because too few see this as something that has been tried and failed.” -T.L. Davis

Wars as Money-Laundering Operations – “Even in Losing Wars, Somebody Always Wins …( ” …the ultimate purpose here is to make war permanent, to make it normal, to make it unremarkable, even to make it the height of sanity.” – Julian Assange)” – Bill Astore

The Endlessness of a Temporary Tax – “So, let’s have a look at one such temporary tax and see how things worked out. The US government introduced the War Revenue Act of 1898—a tax on telephone use—under the claim that it was necessary to pay for the Spanish American War. In what way does telephone use pertain to a government invading another country? Well, actually, one has nothing to do with the other. But, let’s leave that discussion for another day and see how this temporary tax played out. The repeal was never enacted and Americans continue to pay for the Spanish American War today. From time to time, legislators will need to trot out the idea of tax reform, and be seen to be arguing over the details, but will ultimately always do the same: the deck will be reshuffled, but somehow, taxes will rise once again. But the overall lesson to be learned is that Government is, and has always been, a shell game. Its purpose is not to serve the electorate; it is to separate them from the fruits of their labours.” – Jeff Thomas – GOOD ONE FROM JEFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazon’s Aborted “Tariff Cost” Plan – “Why Amazon Backed Off — Fast. The quiet part that rarely gets said about all White House press briefings is they are intentionally exercises in propaganda, not in providing information. The role of the Press Secretary is to present facts regarding a particular issue in a narrative which is favorable to the White House and the current Administration. The White House press corps saw White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt doing exactly that with gusto yesterday, when she pushed back hard against a report that Amazon was reportedly planning to display the presumed “additional cost” brought on by the Liberation Day tariffs.” – Peter Nayland Kust

First 100 Days of Trump’s Zionist Regime – DEATH to Free Speech and the First Amendment – “Among all the articles today talking about Trump’s first 100 days in office, the headline that first caught my attention this morning was about how the White House came out today and publicly humiliated one of America’s most well-known businessmen, Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon.com. And while I am no fan of this American billionaire, it was the reason that President Trump and his White House Press Secretary gave for publicly chastising him that so shocked me: He was accused of telling the TRUTH about Trump’s tariffs and its affect on products sold on Amazon.com.” – Brian Shilhavy

Sen. Josh Hawley Introduces PELOSI Act to Stop Insider Trading – “Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) has reintroduced the “Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments” (PELOSI) Act that would prohibit members of Congress and their families from trading stocks while in office. The name of the act is a direct nod in the direction of 20 term Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) whose net worth has soared from $160,000 when she was first elected in 1987 to more than $140 million in 2024.” – AG Staff

Post-Mortem for the Canadian Election – “And a post-mortem for Canada? It is absolutely no surprise that Ottawa voted solidly for the Liberal Party of Canada, whose base consists of three primary groups: migrants, public sector workers, and baby boomers, all of whom are regime client groups, and all of whom are tightly packed into the nation’s capital. Perhaps it’s that it’s tax season and I’m in a grumpy mood because I just got the bad news, but I can’t help but wonder about how electoral politics would change if only taxpayers were allowed to vote. It’s common for ‘taxpayers’ to be used as a synonym for ‘the voting public’, but this is a bit of linguistic legerdemain which obscures a core dynamic rotting the heart out of every liberal democracy: most of the population are not, in fact, taxpayers.” – John Carter

Canada Beats TheRump as US Loses a Longtime Ally! – “Canadians kicked Trump out of Canada and kicked his fat ass HARD!” – David Haggith

Mark Carney and The Gold Book – “Mark Carney is a big shark in the pond, and a far more dangerous predator than his predecessor Justin Trudeau. Mark Carney, the new Prime Minister of Canada, is the first prime minister to have never held an elected public political office in Canada prior to his appointment as prime minister. Like his apprentice, Chrystia Freeland, he studied at Harvard University. Harvard is a quintessentially global institution. Harvard’s long-term connection to the CIA has been documented for decades, going back to several incidents where Harvard’s CIA-affiliation was exposed. The reason Carney is a far more dangerous predator than Trudeau is because he is very intelligent, patient, disciplined and poses as a moderate. It is now obvious, after the election, that the gullible Canadian population, who lined up for toxic waste injections, are just as easily fooled by Carney.” – 009

Carney in Favor of Debanking Practices – “Canada had an opportunity to implement change. Instead, the masses voted for the next Trudeau, who is another indoctrinated WEF puppet who will step on the neck of the Canadian economy to achieve these globalist goals.” – Martin Armstrong

Israel’s Deliberate Starvation of Gaza Continues – “The use of starvation as a weapon is a war crime” – .Daniel Larison

Going to Kashmir…just to find Alice in Wonderland – “Two overarching taboos reign on the – now shattered – collective West: Can’t define the Ukraine regime as Nazi. Can’t condemn the psychopathological Israeli genocide in Gaza. The taboos happen to be inextricably linked to the Forever Wars deployed non-stop by the Empire of Chaos/Zionist axis. Lesser Hybrid Wars though – even carrying the horrifying prospect of turning nuclear – are allowed to come and go. Especially if they are part of the current war on BRICS, a sub-section of the war of factions of the West against the Global Majority.” – Pepe Escobar

Why’d Russia Officially Acknowledge North Korea’s Military Assistance In Kursk? – “Russia wants the world to know that North Korea might play a larger role in the conflict.” – Andrew Korybko

Neurodiversity Is a Strawman – “Suddenly everyone’s kid is Rain Man. Suddenly everyone is “on the spectrum.” Ergo, it’s normal. Being a little bit weird is beautiful and normal and we are all a little bit weird so that’s not a disorder. This is a psyop and everyone is falling for it. It should be a red flag and alarm every American that pharmaceutical companies have no liability for vaccines and that they have managed to increase the pediatric schedule from 3 to 72 in one generation, and it should alarm every parent to learn that HHS itself draws a hard line in 1989 for autism – the year when vaccine formulation was changed to allow for combinations because in 1986 the vaccine space became a financial free-for-all. Unfortunately, the media is adept at keeping dots that should be connected in silos so that most people do not connect them, and there is no shortage of sock puppet “experts” willing to run around doubling down on the narrative.” – Sofia Karstens

Canada Is Aggressively Attacking U.S. Trade, Farmers and Workers – “Canada has one of the most protectionist economies among developed nations. It particularly targets American farmers, media, and manufacturers. That may be why Donald Trump launched his counterattack on trade offenders with a 25% tariff on many imports from Canada and Mexico, and 10% on Canadian energy. Canada is our largest individual export market, and while it may not be a threat to American health, it is an adept abuser of free trade. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, exports of goods to Canada in 2024 were about $350 billion, and imports about $413 billion, for a deficit of $63 billion, though U.S. services reduce the deficit by about $10 billion.” – Kenin M. Spivak

Ukrainian Army Commander Openly Threatens Zelensky: Will ‘Regret’ Ceding Territory – “Russia on Monday made clear that it is sticking by initial demands raised by Moscow at the start of the war in February 2022, after President Putin last week issues statements which appeared open to compromise for the sake of peace talks. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has declared that Russia will never give up its hold over Crimea, as well as the annexed regions of Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson oblasts. He named as a condition for peace negotiations that Russia’s control and sovereignty over these territories is vital and essentially non-negotiable.” – Tyler Durden

Are You Tired of Hearing About Antisemitism? Simply stop killing Gazans and the anger directed at Jews might end. One might well ask how a group composed of little more than 3% of the US population has managed to gain control of the nation’s foreign policy, its legislature and executive branches, its media, its entertainment industry, its financial institutions, and its elite universities while also making the United States subservient to the wishes of a monstrous small state located seven thousand miles away and composed of its coreligionists? Well, it helps to have a great deal of money” – Philip Giraldi

I would like to begin this report by specifying that it is non-political in nature. If we wanted to play the blame game, we could point fingers at presidential administrations for the past fifty years.

THE BIG PICTURE

Do What You “Must” – “Who among us does not have things that they wish they could be doing, but cannot because first there are things they must do? Who among us does not approach the drudgery of what we “must” do with dread, while wishing we were free to do what we “want” to do? Those things which I want to do are always the ultimate end for everything that I do. God, and a closer communion with God, necessarily must be the reason for all that I do. My prayer is always that I can keep my focus on my real destination.” – Peter Nayland Kust  – GOOD READ FROM PETER!!!!

Maybe It’s in the Water – “So, is the cause of this deterioration of the human condition, both physically and mentally, found in the water? Yes, quite possibly so, but not only in the water but in the air, in our food, our medicines, our schools, our media (both entertainment and news), in just about everywhere and everything we come into contact with. Maybe all of this, including the perpetrators of the Armageddon we are facing, is affected.” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP

We Must Teach Children to Love Freedom More Than Government – “There is a sentence that has long bothered me. It is treated as a piece of universal wisdom that humans gain with experience, and surely every member of a modern, industrial society has heard it in some form. Here it is: That’s not how the real world works.” – J.B. Shurk

Sabin Begins Marburg Vaccine Trial in U.S. – “Washington, D.C. – April 16, 2025 – The Sabin Vaccine Institute has launched a multi-site Phase 2 clinical trial in the U.S. for its Marburg vaccine candidate, administering doses to the first participants in Melbourne, Florida. This trial builds on ongoing Phase 2 testing in Kenya and Uganda, with initial findings from that research expected in the coming months. ” – Sabin Vaccine Institute

Stop the Digital Control Grid (VIDEO) with Catherine Austin Fitts – “There is no bigger ongoing battle for lovers of freedom than the battle taking place over the freedom killing idea of digital ID.” But it’s more that just ID, it’s an entire control grid that is being quietly built that is like a frog being put into pot and the water being brought to a boil.” – Greg Hunter

Dr. Suzanne Humphries: How pediatricians use “wellness visits” to coerce parents into vaccinating their kids – “Pediatric offices use psychological tactics (fear, threats of CPS, gaslighting) to pressure parents into vaccinating, dismissing parental autonomy and framing vaccines as non-negotiable for child health. Wellness visits are revenue generators, with vaccines serving as a profit source for doctors, Big Pharma and insurers — prioritizing repeat business over genuine health” – Kevin Hughes

The Reckless Gamble of Self-Amplifying RNA: A Runaway Experiment with No Off Switch – “Signal-Based Medicine | Self-Amplifying RNA. In the ever-growing arms race of genetic engineering, a new and deeply concerning player has emerged: self-amplifying RNA (saRNA). Unlike conventional mRNA shots, which carry the pretense of controlled dosing, saRNA introduces a self-replicating genetic mechanism into human cells—a mechanism that has no inherent safeguards, no patient-specific oversight, and no clear understanding of the long-term ramifications.” – Decision Junction, Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH and Nicolas Hulscher, MPH

As Above—So Below – “As above—so below, in a world turned upside down. Wherein, like the disappearing middle class, rational beings now occupy only the short middle along a continuum, crushed upon from both the right/left by mindless, unquestioning ideologue hordes. The crush is not aghast when Trump has 75 nations line-up to kiss his ass and call him ‘Sir’. And not abjectly disappointed when JD Vance talks about borrowing dollars from Chinese peasants to buy goods made by Chinese peasants. Instead, I’m accused of going after Trump too early. Give him some time—is Trump giving the world—time? ” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com – VERY GOOD READ FROM ERIK AS USUAL!!!

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Retreats and Silly Posturing – “Ukraine’s European backers are now pressing Ukraine to at least unofficially recognize that Crimea is part of Russia and to agree to a ceasefire in place, which would unofficially recognize Russian sovereignty over the portion of Ukraine it has conquered. Ukraine’s comedian-turned-President said Ukraine would never recognize Russian claims to Crimea or anything else. For his part, Vladimir Putin said Russia was prepared for unconditional peace talks with Ukraine. Who sounds like they want the war to continue more?” – Ohio Barbarian – THE BARBARIAN’S WEEKLY NEWS WRAP UP!!!

Virginia Giuffre: Another Casualty of the State – “Used, abused, and discarded. Virginia Giuffre died yesterday. They say she committed suicide. They say that about a lot of whistleblowers and inconvenient witnesses. Giuffre was perhaps the most high profile victim of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking ring. Prince Andrew was among those she was trafficked to. She was a brave person who is hopefully at peace.” – Donald Jeffries

A Big and Very Ugly Tax Bill Coming Up in Congress – “We’ve seen this story before and know how it ends.” – Mish

The Antisemitism Psyop: Why Zionism is Actually Anti-Jewish – “Zionism is a far right, Jewish-supremacist political ideology embraced by many who identify as Jews and also by many non-Jewish, non-Semitic-speaking peoples. The simplistic and incorrect definition of Zionism is explained as the belief that the current nation of Israel has the right to exist. Therefore, proponents of this definition suggest that anyone opposed to the Israeli government or the behavior of their military must believe that the Israeli State does not have the right to exist. This understanding is based in absolute ignorance, and often, has been carefully crafted by the globalist Ashkenazi Elites and their puppet governments via propaganda and psychological manipulation. Millions of Jews are anti-Zionist, so the idea that these Jews are also antisemitic is nonsensical; yet, that narrative is being promoted by the US and other Western governments, NGOs, most of the media, and universities. ” – Sarah E. Lawton

Texas Alert: Two Islamic Lawmakers Are Leading the Pakistanification of the Lone Star State (Video) – “There is a dangerous Islamization underway in Texas—and it’s not hypothetical. It’s here, unfolding in real time. Two Pakistani-born Muslim men, Dr. Suleman Lalani and Salman Bhojani, both Democrats, gained elected office in the Texas House of Representatives in the 2022 election and were sworn in on January 10, 2023. Lalani and Bhojani are not mere politicians. They are ideological actors with a clear agenda: to transform Texas from the bastion of liberty and American pride into a bureaucratically compliant outpost for Islamic cultural dominance. Both men swore into office not on the Bible, not even on the Constitution, but on the Quran—a gesture that tells you everything you need to know about where their loyalties lie. ” – Amy Mek

It Didn’t Matter Enough – “The point is that a lot of America’s problems with both banking and the law arise from deep roots within the system. Fighting against the Community Reinvestment Act gets one no closer to ethical banking. Everything Trump is now doing is something all other presidents have done, but were largely covered up by a coercive media, either through lies of omission or commission. Americans want to fix the problem, that’s a strength and a weakness, because it gives them the fortitude to look unflinchingly into dark issues, but it’s a weakness because they are unable to admit that there is no fix. At least not for the government as it’s currently being run.” – T.L. Davis

The Irish Alliance is one of the groups behind the demonstration and shared footage of UFC legend Conor McGregor at the Parnell Square site ahead of the protest.” – Tyler Durden

Secretary of Labor Warns States Could Lose Federal Funding If Illegal Immigrants Get Unemployment Benefits – “The decision comes after the DHS announced a comprehensive optimization of an immigrant database to verify non-citizen status nationwide. “Our nation’s unemployment benefits exist solely for workers who are eligible to receive them,” Chavez-DeRemer wrote in a letter addressed to state governors. “To qualify for unemployment, one must be able and available to work, actively seeking work, and be legally authorized to accept employment in the United States. Unemployment benefits are not a handout for those in our country illegally.”  – Naveen Athrappully

Russian General Staff Confirms: North Korean Troops Fought Valiantly in Kursk – “Today Putin announced the complete liberation of the Kursk region: In reality, it seems the Kremlin has made a habit out of reporting slightly premature victories, as they famously did in Khrynki last year.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK ( USED BEFORE 4 YEARS AGO. MORE RELEVANT THAN EVER )

I must’ve dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They’re moving into the street

Now, did you read the news today?
They say the danger’s gone away
But I can see the fires still alight
They’re burning into the night

There’s too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go ’round
Can’t you see this is a land of confusion?

This is the world we live in (Oh, oh, oh)
And these are the hands we’re given (Oh, oh, oh)
Use them and let’s start trying (Oh, oh, oh)
To make it a place worth living in

Ooh, Superman, where are you now
When everything’s gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there’s not much love to go ’round
Tell me why this is a land of confusion

This is the world we live in (Oh, oh, oh)
And these are the hands we’re given (Oh, oh, oh)
Use them and let’s start trying (Oh, oh, oh)
To make it a place worth living in

I remember long ago
Ooh, when the sun was shining
Yes, and the stars were bright all through the night
And the sound of your laughter as I held you tight
So long ago

I won’t be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We’re not just making promises
That we know we’ll never keep

Too many men, there’s too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go ’round
Can’t you see this is a land of confusion?

Now, this is the world we live in (Oh, oh, oh)
And these are the hands we’re given (Oh, oh, oh)
Use them and let’s start trying (Oh, oh, oh)
To make it a place worth fighting for

This is the world we live in (Oh, oh, oh)
And these are the names we’re given (Oh, oh, oh)
Stand up and let’s start showing (Oh, oh, oh)
Just where our lives are going to

Virginia Giuffre ‘Quiteted’ – “Jeffrey Epstein was an Israeli agent tasked with blackmailing U.S. politicians and business people by providing them with under-age girls. Virginia Giuffre, then 17, was one of those victims. Epstein was jailed and, on August 10 2019, found dead in his cell. Today we learn that Virginia Giuffre is dead This is curious. Potential renal failure in March is supposed to be the cause for a suicide in late April? Why is the NY Times insinuating this?

The Reality Club was an informal gathering of intellectuals who met from 1981 to 1996 in Chinese restaurants, artist lofts, investment banking firms, ballrooms, museums, living rooms and elsewhere. These cosy meet ups soon became regular dinners funded by Jeffrey Epstein. Then the chums club were trained in mind control techniques which they have each employed in their multi-billion dollar businesses. The technobrats are now in government in the USA, murdering that country via a thousand cuts, courtesy of DOGE, while the international crime syndicate smiles and the oblivious public barely notice how the coup happened.” – Frances Leader

It was a picture of the judge under arrest. “No one is above the law,” Patel posted. Just in case the Democrats thought that what they were saying on the case made any sense at all, CNN legal analyst Elie Honig put paid to that. He said if they can prove what is being alleged here in the complaint, that’s a crime. “Let’s strip the politics out of it — this is a crime. If they can prove what happened here, it is a crime… Let’s strip the Trump of it all out, let’s strip the immigration of it all out…That is textbook obstruction.” Exactly.

Instead, it is all about stealing high-paying, high-tech, and professional jobs from Americans.
