Was Jesus’ Crucifixion a Hoax? – Questioning My Religion [Part 2] – “As a Catholic, I was raised to believe everything in the Bible is a true story, so for me, the Bible is history and I never questioned it because questioning is something essentially forbidden in the Catholic faith. Only awful atheists and nonbelievers question and I sure wasn’t either of those things. Then, after 40 years of not questioning, the day came where I was forced to inquire; not being able to make sense of some of what is in the Bible really began bothering me.” – Agent131711  – COULDN’T DECIDE ON WHETHER TO POST THIS OR NOT AND THEN DECIDED IT IS A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE.

Asia doesn’t care about your culture war (VIDEO) – “A conversation with Ben Bartee, founder of Armageddon Prose. In this interview, he gets into why Asia doesn’t care about North America’s culture war (and why they actually kind of like Trump’s swagger), how techno-feudalism is quietly replacing the world order we grew up in, and why bird flu might be the next leg of the journey to all-out dystopia.” – Collapse Life

Our World of Universal Deceit – “Everything you know is wrong. George Orwell wrote, “During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.” Our present era is certainly full of deceit, along with corruption, incompetence, and insanity. When you’re lied to often enough, you lose perspective on what the truth really is. We are lied to continuously.” – Donald Jeffries  – VERY GOOD READ READ FROM DONALD!!!

The Capitulation of the West – “We have to stop worrying about consequences for demanding a Western society. The consequences are already here and living among us in every aspect of our lives for our lack of willingness to demand it. The West has been turned on its head; the leaders have singled out their native populations for elimination through either rape and slaughter or overwhelming odds. Whole Muslim cities are sprouting up in Texas denying the Constitution and challenging Texans for rule of the state. This has to stop and Texans, like the UK, the Irish and the French must come to grips with the purpose of their Western heritage, or lose it all together.” – T.L. Davis

A Powerful Government and a Weak Nation – “For many Americans, it is an article of faith that a vast and powerful federal government equals a great and strong nation. Actually, it’s the exact opposite. Part of the problem here is that many Americans have been taught to believe that the federal government and the nation are one and the same thing. They aren’t. They are two completely separate and distinct entities.” – Jacob G. Hornberger

The United States Has Become a Two-Tier Country – “What has happened to the Constitutional Republic where all are equal under law?” – Philip Giraldi

Scrapping the First Amendment at the Behest of a Foreign Power (VIDEO) – “MAGA and the Israel First movement.Arguably the cornerstone of American freedom, the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution is to protect the right of the people to peacefully express their views, no matter who they may offend. But Trump’s Make America Great Again movement is clearly about Israel first. And Israel is getting their money’s worth. ” – Greg Reese – MORE MIGA (MAKE ISRAEL GREAT AGAIN). ANOTHER MUST WATCH FROM GREG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First They Came for the Op-Ed Writers – “On March 25, six masked federal agents seized a Turkish graduate student on the streets of Somerville, Massachusetts. Rumeysa Ozturk—who was wearing a hajib—is a Fulbright scholar working on a doctorate at Tufts University. She was abducted and vanished into the maw of the federal prison system. The Trump administration ignored a federal court order and took Ozturk from Massachusetts to Louisiana federal detention facilities. Rubio promised: “Every time I find one of these lunatics, I take away their visas.” Is criticizing a foreign government now considered proof of lunacy in the White House? Does the Trump administration consider op-eds to be a weapon of mass destruction? The First Amendment doesn’t specify that it only applies to people that the White House approves. ” – James Bovard

Trump posts VIDEO of US strike in Yemen – “The drone footage depicts the bombing of a Houthi gathering, according to the US president. A munition falls from the sky, causing an explosion and leaving a large crater. Two vehicles and no bodies are visible in the aftermath. “These Houthis gathered for instructions on an attack. Oops, there will be no attack by these Houthis!” the president wrote. “They will never sink our ships again!” Some were quick to suggest online that the people in the video were civilians participating in a tribal gathering, and posted photos of similar gatherings in Yemen in the past.” – RT

We’re Giving Putin “Weeks, Not Months” To Decide On Ceasefire: Rubio – Tyler Durden

How Trump’s Tariff Tizzy Is Burning Down the House – “Circus ringmaster Trump’s Tariff Tizzy (TTT), christened by himself as “Liberation Day”, is being largely interpreted around the world – Global North and Global South alike – as Slaughterhouse Day. This de facto uncontrolled economic demolition gambit starts with the warped fantasy that launching a customs war on China is a bright idea. As bright as collecting a few trillion extra dollars in tariffs assuming the rest of the planet will be somewhat “encouraged” to sell to the Hegemon, while pretending that these tariffs will lead to the re-industrialization of the U.S.” – Pepe Escobar

Britain—Like France and Spain—Is Poorer than Mississippi – “The gap between US and European living standards has been noticeable for some time, and some European countries aren’t even keeping up with the poorest states in the United States. This has led to what some observers of international macroeconomics call the “Mississippi Question.” The question goes something like this: “is my country poorer than the poorest state in the United States?” The poorest state is presumably Mississippi, and if your country is worse off than Mississippi, that’s evidence that your country has nothing to brag about in terms of its standard of living. Is Britain poorer than Mississippi? Taking into account welfare benefits and taxes, the answer appears to be yes, and it’s yes for many other European countries as well.” – Ryan McMaken

Convicting the Saints, While Predators Continue to Devour Canada – “Trudeau and His Appointed PM, Mark Carney, Continue as Agents of Carnage, While Tamara Lich and Chris Barber Get Convicted of the Crime of “Mischief.” Canada as Brian Peckford Sees It Today.” – Anthony James Hall

THE DEBT HAS BEEN FULLY WEAPONIZED, THE US DOLLAR WILL DIE. (VIDEO) – Gregory Mannarino

Special Edition: CRASHING! – “It’s a total cliff dive today! As things stand here near the top of the day while I’m composing this, the Dow’s second day down is -1,600 points. The S&P is now down 15% from its peak, if the market closes at this level. Maybe it will hit a full bear market by end of day! That would be a fun ride! However the worst news today so far is for the rapidly plummeting Nasdaq, getting wiped out by those Magnificent Seven stocks and especially the AI stocks that “could never fall because they’re the wave of the future.” The Nasdaq is already set to officially close in a bear market,” – David Haggith

The Stock Market Warning Of A Recession? – “There is no guaranteed method of determining whether a correction is just a correction or a warning of a recession. Much like Sherlock Holmes, we must follow a trail of clues and make assessments based on the data at hand. Several economic and technical indicators can help confirm whether a market downturn signals a recession.” – Lance Roberts

Germany wants its gold back! – “It is Indicative of European central bank thinking about leasing, storage, and possession. Today’s Daily Telegraph reported that there is a movement in Germany to get back its gold amounting to 1,200 tonnes, held earmarked at the NY Fed. The Bundesbank denied it, expressing complete confidence in the Americans. Well, they would, wouldn’t they” – Alasdair Macleod

Walk Confidently To Avoid Becoming A Victim – “Walking confidently will minimize your chances of being a victim of robbery or assault. A would-be attacker, robber, or assailant will always seek easy prey. Just as the weakest of the herd in the animal kingdom typically falls first to a hungry predator, so too will a similarly apparent human become the likely victim of crime before that of a more confident-appearing person. This is particularly true for women, who are not usually as physically strong as most men. A few simple, practiced traits could discourage a lurking attacker. Appear, and be, confident while you are out in public.” – Ken Jorgustin

HEAVY ON TARIFF NEWS TODAY IN MOST OF THE CATEGORIES, BUT IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT PEOPLE SEE ALL SIDES OF THIS AS IT AFFECTS THE BIG PICTURE, ECONOMIC NEWS AND NEWS IN GENERAL AS WELL AS SURVIVING ALL OF THIS!!!!!!!!

THE BIG PICTURE

…and here comes the Online Safety Act – “The UK’s Online Safety Act officially came into force two weeks ago, and they have wasted no time using it. Alternative social media network Gab has already been threatened with a massive fine for its supposed failures to “police speech” on its platform. Anecdotes are piling up, small forums and communities blocking access from the UK for fear of attracting OfCom’s ire and the like. But rest assured, an OfCom spokesperson promised the Telegraph they would “only take action where it is proportionate and appropriate”. So that’s alright.” – Kit Knightly

Why Did The FDA Hide Vaccine Injuries? – “How Peter Marks’ role in the COVID vaccine debacle exposed the flaws in America’s toxic health bureaucracy” – A Midwestern Doctor

How to fake pandemics, the maestro edition: Ralph Baric. – “GOF Viruses are dead on arrival.” – Sasha Latypova

PROPERTY TAX SLAVERY EXPOSED (VIDEO) with Alphonse Faggiolo – “Property tax warrior Alphonse Faggiolo returns to SGT Report to share the latest about his ongoing war against the bureaucratic tyranny of the deeply unconstitutional property tax collectors.” – SGT Report

World Population is Collapsing – “How to Fix it?What’s driving the crash is 3 things that changed the cost-benefit of kids: Kids don’t earn. They cost a lot thanks to inflation.  And government pensions mean don’t need kids when you’re old. So rather than kids helping on the farm — or in the family business — urbanization, union restrictions on teen employment, and the decline of small business left kids as pure cost. ” – Peter St Onge

Super Violent Weather and Cold – “Up to 4 months’ worth of rain may fall in less than a week across part of the central United States, threatening major flooding and endangering lives and property. A firehose of moisture is forecast to produce repeating thunderstorms with torrential downpours throughout the United States through much of this weekend. Antarctica is experiencing an intense and unseasonal cold snap at the end of March, with temperatures plummeting to record-setting lows at Concordia Station. Why do most extreme heat records date back to the early 20th century or the 1800s? It’s also worth asking whether heavily adjusted, smoothed, and modelled trends are easier to ‘influence’ than raw thermometer readings. Trends can be shaped by averaging methods, data station selection, or baseline shifts. All-time records, on the other hand, are stubborn facts ” – Dr. Sircus – SOUNDS LIKE A LITTLE GEOENGINEERING GOING ON WITH THE RAINS RATHER THAN GLOBAL WARMING. THAT WOULD BE THE REAL INCONVENIENT TRUTH!!!

It’s Tornado Season Again, Again, Again… – “And Still No EF5. As tornado season returns once again the predictable media claims linking severe weather to climate change roll in like clockwork.” – Dr. Matthew Wielicki

Everyone Needs Treatment for CV19 Bioweapon Vax (VIDEO) with Dr. Betsy Eads – “We are seeing more and more and worse and worse turbo-cancers, and we are five years out from the rollout of the CV19 vax. The morbidity and mortality of these people who took two shots and a booster is extremely high. . . . I think everybody should be treated, unvaxed or vaxed. You should be treated everyday until we come out with an adequate cure to prevent the mRNA, which is pumping out the spike protein. People who did not get the CV19 injections can still get sick from the people who did get the injections. It’s called “shedding.” Dr. Eads says,” – Greg Hunter

NEWS

You Wouldn’t Want to Be Him on That Dreadful Day – “Do you see the pattern? Populist party leaders all over Western Civ getting undone by the law courts — Călin Georgescu in Romania, election cancelled; Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil, de-railed by President Lula’s stooge judges (with CIA help); Prime Minister Robert Fico of Slovakia shot-up with five bullets in May last year (survived miraculously); the Alternative-for-Deutschland Party de-platformed by the Scholz-Merz ruling junta; then, this week, Marine Le Pen, leading candidate (by far) for President of France, defenestrated on Mickey Mouse charges in the Paris court. And, of course, since 2015, Mr. Trump, hounded relentlessly, but not yet overthrown, due to sheer pluck and testosterone (the official hated hormone of the Left). International lawfare is about the last remaining tool in the “Globalist” kit-bag for “color revolution,” which means regime change by underhanded means, election interference being the favorite device” – James Howard Kunstler

The Globalist Authoritarians Are Playing With Fire – “What happened with Marine Le Pen, the most popular politician in France who was just banned from standing for election on the flimsiest of pretenses, is no exception. It’s becoming the rule around the West and in other places, too, where being outside the mainstream of authorized establishment left-leaning globalist politics has become criminalized.” – Kurt Schlichter

Trump’s greatest betrayal so far: Accelerating Middle East wars, silencing dissent, and serving Zionist masters – “Donald Trump, supposedly the “peace president,” was elected on promises of ending “stupid wars.” However, he has instead escalated U.S. military aggression in the Middle East – turning his back on his campaign promise. Trump’s administration is actively suppressing free speech, deporting protesters, and aligning with Israel’s genocidal campaign in Gaza. Evangelical support for Trump remains unwavering, blinded by Zionist eschatology that justifies any atrocity in the name of biblical prophecy.” – Lance D Johnson

Trump’s “Liberation Day”: Another PR Gag, or Global Reorientation Turning Point? – “Experts the world over are now butting heads over what this epochal ‘reciprocal tariffs’ package will mean for the world economy. Firstly, it must be said that the misnomered program is apparently not one of ‘reciprocal’ tariffs at all, but rather tariffs doing the job of balancing ‘unequal’ trade deficits between the US and other countries. As most know by now, Trump’s team apparently used a simple equation for determining the tariff rate: Not surprisingly there was an early bloodbath in the markets, with the US dollar dramatically falling against major currencies:” – Simplicius

Trump’s Absurd Trade Policies Will Impoverish Americans and Harm the World – “Trump blames the rest of the world for America’s deficit, but that’s absurd. It is America that is spending more than it earns. ” – Jeffrey D. Sachs

Tariffs and Federal Reserve (VIDEO) – “Dennis Kucinich smacks a grand slam home run right here. Dennis points out that The amount of revenue promised by the Tariffs just happens to cover the cost of making the 2017 Trump tax cuts permanent, 4/5th of which goes to people making over $450K a year. An attack on Iran would skyrocket the price of oil. We would be looking at $7 to $10 gasoline overnight. The immediate effects of the Tariffs will hurt the poorest the mostest, lower consumer spending, and maybe throw the US into a recession. The Federal Reserve was created to allow the banks to control our money supply.” – Ohio Barbarian  – GOOD ONE AND A VARYING VIEW WITH GOOD POINTS FROM THE RAVEN BELOW!!!!

Your Discomfort Means It’s Working – “This tariff sea change reverses the gears of a machine that has been in motion for decades. It has been one whole day since President Trump implemented his tariff agenda. With the amount of squirming and outright panic in the news media, markets, and on social media, you’d think we were 50 years into a 100-year bout of famine, plague, depression, and pestilence. Let’s all just gather our heads for a second. The direction the country was heading in monetarily and fiscally was simply unsustainable. Deficits too big. Debt skyrocketing against GDP. Wealth gap accelerating. Drug and alcohol addiction ravaging cities. We were walking a path that decimated the lives and the purchasing power of the people who need it most and took American jobs away from people who needed them the most. Worse off, it made the United States dependent on adversaries like China to simply go about our day-to-day” – Quoth the Raven

USAID – The Devil Incarnate – “How did the mainstream media manage to lionize one of the most objectively evil organizations in existence?” – Spartacus

Democrats Are Terrified Of Trump’s Plan To Make Elections Secure – “Anyone who cares about election integrity should get behind the legislation. Those who don’t? Well, they have their reasons.” – Brianna Lyman

Trump fires three neocon warmongers from his White House National Security Council staff – “What I don’t understand is why Trump would care. He loaded up his first administration with neocons, and he placed several in key positions in his second term, like Marco Rubio and Waltz. He even employed the king of neoconservatism, John Bolton, for a time in his first administration. Suddenly, we are supposed to believe Trump is listening to someone like Laura Loomer and embarking on a purge of neocons from his administration? It’s hard for me to believe Trump did not know that Waltz, Rubio, Feith and the others were neocons” – Leo Hohmann

WATCH: Biden Disinfo Czar/Dystopian Mary Poppins Re-Emerges For Horrific Congressional Testimony – “The self-professed “Mary Poppins of disinformation,” Nina Jankowicz, emerged from whatever troll-cave she’s been living (and, unfortunately, breeding) in to testify to Congress, the occasion of which she took to inform the People with much self-assuredness that “the so-called censorship-industrial is a fiction.” It’s one thing to promote the subversion of the most fundamental Constitutional right in Congress — advocacy which ironically itself falls under free speech protections; it’s quite another to literally head a governmental agency that actively silences dissident purveyors of “disinformation” (a nebulous term defined arbitrarily by the Mary Poppins bitch). The former is, again, protected speech; the latter is treason, which is punishable by death.” – Ben Bartee

This is not a pathway toward a good society – “Leftists have ideas on what society should be. In fairness, everyone has ideas. The left will tell you that their idea is one based on tolerance, peace, and love—or something along those lines. Without any doubt in the world, though, they’ll paint you a picture of a society that sounds pretty good if you don’t think too much about it. Unfortunately for them, their actions aren’t remotely consistent with this. Why? Because they think so many evil things are just if you only do them to the right people.” – Tom Knighton

Genocide Tourism in Israel (VIDEO) – “An Israeli Zionist organization has sparked outrage by organizing controversial boat tours, dubbed “Genocide Tourism,” that allow participants to witness bombings in Gaza from a distance. Critics have condemned this initiative as an inhumane spectacle that promotes territorial expansionism, particularly the idea of “Greater Israel.”” – Makia Freeman

Matt Taibbi Files $10 Million Libel Suit Against Dem Rep. For Accusing Him Of ‘Serial Sexual Harassment’ – “Journalist Matt Taibbi is suing Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove for libel, after the California Democrat claimed during her opening remarks in a House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee hearing on Tuesday that he’s a “serial sexual harasser.” While Taibbi wouldn’t have been able to sue due to lawmaker protections under the Speech and Debate clause of the constitution, Kamlager-Dove was stupid enough to then post those claims on social media; both on X and Blue Sky. As Taibbi directly notes to Kamlager-Dove via Racket News, “Rep. Kamlager-Dove, no woman has ever accused me of engaging in sexual harrassment once, let alone serially. See you in court. Please do not evade service.” ” – Tyler Durden  – $10 MILLION SEEMS LIKE A GOOD STARTING POINT. ONE HAS TO WONDER IF ANY ELECTED DEMOCRAT FROM CALIFORNIA HAS ANY BRAIN CELLS. ONCE AGAIN, I MUST ASK WHO ELECTS THESE IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After Ukraine and NATO Are Spun Off, Who’s Next? – “Congress cheers the smooth diversion of defense profiteering from Afghanistan to Ukraine, and now from Ukraine to Gaza, Yemen, and Iran. Sun Tzu may not have said “follow the money,” but he did say “there is no instance of a nation benefiting from prolonged warfare.” Government media like the Times can see this in Ukraine, but refuses to acknowledge how 70 years of non-stop conflict, war and proxy war has destroyed the Constitution and impoverished the United States.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

Let me tell you why stockpiling water might be the most overrated—and potentially dangerous—habit in the prepping community.” – Matt Wright

No List of Supplies Can Prepare You for the Fluidity of the SHTF – “You can easily get done some preps in terms of what stuff you need and how much of it, what is really important and whatnot. But prepping in its essence should not be the simple hoarding of items. It should not be because it might easily lead you into paranoia, and another important reason is that most of us do not have means to store everything that we might need for a longer period of time. You have to expect the fluidity of the situation” – Selco

THE BIG PICTURE

Wife of Dr. Anthony Fauci reassigned from NIH to Indian health service’s regional posts – “Christine Grady, the wife of Dr. Anthony Fauci, was among several top officials who were notified they were being reassigned from the National Institutes of Health to regional offices of the Indian Health Service. Ms. Grady served as chief of the Clinical Center’s Department of Bioethics in Bethesda, and like many of her colleagues, were given until Wednesday to decide whether to accept their new assignment, which is responsible for providing federal health services to American Indians and Alaska Natives, or quit their jobs, The New York Times reported.” – Kerry Picket

Was Christine Grady Fired Or “Re-Assigned?” – “And How Did Robert Gallo Come Up With HIV As The Cause Of AIDS? Answer: He Wrote It Into Being, Despite It Not Being. Robert Gallo, Anthony Fauci, William Haseltine, and thousands of other “AIDS researchers,” laid the foundation for the HIV terror which was based on demonstrable fraud by Gallo. By “fraud” I mean that Gallo reversed, by his own hand, the conclusions of his lab assistant who found no “retrovirus,” nor particles, nor “cause of AIDS,” in the very sample which set off the multi-trillion dollar money laundering that came to be known as “the fight against AIDS,” which later spawned Covid. Covid, by contrast, did not even have a corrupt father scientist or a preposterous causation theory. It just came straight out of AI.” – Celia Farber

Meltdown at the FDA while 23 States, 2 Governors +DC Sue HHS/Sec Kennedy- ” In the meantime, the PREP Act declaration for covid pandemic remains in place..” – Sasha Latypova

“The FDA Is Finished” – ” It’s good news for Americans and possibly the rest of the world who suffer under the weight of pharmaceutical terrorism. Stocks are falling heavily in the drug industry; people are losing money for participating in the disease and death-causing industry. Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced his plans to slash 10,000 full-time employees across departments last week. In addition to the 10,000 employees who opted to leave, this brings down the total number of staff from 82,000 to 62,000, including 3,500 at the FDA. No one was spared in the Tuesday cuts that swept across leadership, longtime staffers, scientists, and administrators. “It’s a bloodbath,” a U.S. Food and Drug Administration employee said. Not enough blood for me after reading:” – Dr. Sircus

Pollinator and Civilizational Collapse – “Why. And how it will crush us. Pollinators – including honeybees, native wild bees, butterflies, moths, flies, beetles, birds, and bats – are crucial for ecosystems and agriculture. An estimated 75% of the world’s food crop and wild flowering plant species depend to some extent on animal pollination. Yet pollinator populations are in global decline, raising alarms for biodiversity, agriculture, and nutrition. Many insect pollinators are in serious decline globally. ” – Sarah Connor

Why Trump just saved Big Pharma in Ireland – “Tariffs day surprise. By exempting one industry it served to shine a torch on the industries he didn’t save but targeted. The end result, whether by accident or design, means the United States is attacking Ireland’s traditional and native exporting sectors – agricultural and drinks industry and others – while simultaneously giving a rain-check to Big Pharma and US corporate interests here.” – Gerry O’Neill

Dutch Government Makes Shrimp Fishermen an “Offer They Can’t Refuse” – “Almost a third of Dutch shrimp fishermen have now applied for the government to buy out their boats. In 2022, the Dutch government practically declared shrimp fishermen “illegal” after using a nitrogen-calculation model called AERIUS to decree that their nitrogen emissions needed to be reduced to near zero.” – Elze van Hamelen – THE CLIMATE SCAM DESTROYS ANOTHER INDUSTRY!!!!

Betrayal – “The Pharmaceutical Hospital Emergency Industrial Complex has betrayed your trust in them. Your government has betrayed you by blocking the path to justice with the PREP Act. HELP EXPOSE THESE CRIMES.” – James Roguski

Microscopic analysis suggests unknown biological contaminants falling from the sky – “Researchers found microscopic web-like structures, egg-like diploid particles, and multicellular clusters in Florida air samples, suggesting engineered or biological contaminants.

You Have To Allow That… – “Trump may pull a rabbit out of the hat. But along the way consider there may be no rabbit and no hat. I was just listening to Scott Bessent droning on how cheap goods is not in the American ethos. That’s certainly the case when your nation is de-industrialized and dependent on foreign goods that are being tariffed/sanction, across the board. And that peacenik, Trump going after Yemen, while threatening Russia with sanctions and Iran with oblivion—does anyone in his posse ask what business of it, is his?

President Trump: Pick a Side, BRICS+ or Deep State – “Escalating defenses around Iran per the will of the Zionists will be the demise of multiple countries across the globe including The Americas and most of Europe. Escalating peace and trade with the BRICS will move America into the New Empire of the 21st century. ” – Helena Glass

War Is Hell – “War is an “unpleasant business.” That two-word euphemism reflects the divergent experiences of two separate groups: those who profit from violence and those who experience violence firsthand. For anyone in the latter group, war is hell. That’s how Civil War general William Tecumseh Sherman described it, and he was an expert in the subject. He set everything ablaze on his marches through the South. Scorched-earth conquests are meant to break the spirit of opposing soldiers and civilians alike, and Sherman broke everything in his sight. Sherman’s effectiveness in demoralizing Southerners influenced military minds around the world and shifted military war planning toward tactics that would define the “total wars” to come. Psychological warfare, industrial sabotage, the destruction of civilian infrastructure, and even the targeting of noncombatants became standard practices of war in the twentieth century. Eighty years after WWII and over a century since the conclusion of a conflict so savage and awful that witnesses simply called it the “Great War” out of an expectation that there could never possibly be another so vile, we sit on the precipice of a third world war that will eclipse the twentieth century’s mass slaughter. ” – J.B.

The World Wobbled, Cracked and then Burst into Flames – ““What was delivered was as haphazard as anything this administration has done to date, and the level of complication on top of the ultimate level of new tariffs is worse than had been feared and not yet priced into the market,” said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at B. Riley Wealth Management…. Sad are the market maniacs and mavens who thought they’d take one last ride up the big hill. Sadder still are they likely to be tomorrow coming down it to find the tracks are out right after the top, though market ignorance apparently knows no bounds, so who knows?

Not really. Debt is still soaring, political systems are still descending into chaos, trust in major institutions continues to erode, and strange, inexplicable events keep occurring.

They can often be found sunning themselves on rocks, trails, or other open spaces. This is nature’s way of helping them regulate their body temperature after months of cold-blooded dormancy. Unfortunately, these early-season basking sessions can put snakes and humans on a dangerous collision course.” – Bill Heid

How Globalists Use Crazed Leftists To Piss Off The Populace And Provoke Dictatorship – “There is nothing more dangerous than an incomplete picture of history. A hundred years from now, if the powers-that-be have their way, the few children still allowed to be born (due to carbon controls) will be regaled with school lessons about the “Dark Ages of Nationalism” – When humanity was divided into warring states and divided societies that refused to embrace multiculturalism “to the detriment of all”. They will say that a “great movement” for globalism and wokeness arose and that the courageous revolutionaries fought evil conservative fascists using any means necessary. The political left will be painted as heroes fighting, not for freedom, but for equity and the “greater good”. Western culture, Christianity, meritocracy, moral objectivity, personal liberty and appeals to reason will be demonized as relics of the old world – Monstrous constructs that prevented civilization from attaining true “oneness”.” – Brandon Smith

The War Power – “The thing about abuse is you get used to it. Eventually, it becomes normal – having been normalized. For instance, this business of the president starting wars. Just deciding it’s time to lob bombs on other countries. This is not the president’s constitutional prerogative, which is the relevant point. But presidents have gotten way with starting wars for generations, from FDR to the present one. The Korean War was never declared – by Congress. Nor the Vietnam War. Nor the War on Trrrrrr declared by The Chimp. The war the latter began in Afghanistan lasted almost 20 years. Now America is at war with Yemen – and perhaps soon Iran – because President Trump so decided. Once again, it is important to return to the point that it is beside the point whether going to war with Yemen – and potentially, Iran – is a good or a terrible idea.” – Eric Peters

The United States of Tyranny: America Is Becoming a Constitution-Free Zone – “It’s no joke: America is becoming a Constitution-free zone.

Prophets, Nomads, And A Fourth Turning Accelerating Towards A Bloody Climax – “The previous two Fourth Turning presidents, during the Great Depression/World War II Fourth Turning and the Civil War Fourth Turning, acted like dictators, wielding their authoritarian powers, using war as the excuse for overstepping their Constitutionally granted authority. Ruling by executive order has now become commonplace, as our Republic has degenerated into a corporate fascist totalitarian state where the spoils have been shared by the privileged few, while the rest of us have been propagandized into subjugation, depravity, debt, and debasement. Trump has assumed a dictatorial attitude, with the rationale that he must do so to defeat the evil forces of the Deep State, and more than 50% of the population is enthusiastically onboard. There is generally no middle ground when it comes to Donald Trump. You either despise him and scream he is literally Hitler, or you worship him as the savior of America, leading us to a glorious renaissance. Personally, I find myself in the middle ground, based on what he has done, rather than what he says.” – Jim Quinn  – JIM ONLY WRITES AN ARTICLE ABOUT EVERY TWO OR THREE MONTHS BUT THEY ARE ALWAYS WORTH READING!!!

Essential Violence – “In 19th century America, it was popular to argue that there are four boxes for maintaining political liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and cartridge. There is also a version that has just three boxes, which drops the jury box from the model. The soap box is public speech used to persuade the ruling class. The ballot box is the democratic process. The jury box is the legal process, and the cartridge box is violence. The order of the boxes is important as it is both a warning and a promise. The assassination of Trump is a good reminder that it is almost always the case that once either side of the political system reaches the jury box, one side or the other will reach for the cartridge box. ” – The Z Man

Who Owns the Gold? – “In 1933, people thought the world was ending and urged government to do whatever it could to relieve the pain of the Depression. In compliance thereof, FDR issued Executive Order 6102 on April 5, 1933 “forbidding the hoarding of gold coin, gold bullion, and gold certificates within the continental United States.” Note the word, “hoarding”—a word with a negative tinge, suggesting the person hoarding is deliberately restricting supply for personal advantage. Hoarders of gold, which was synonymous with owners of gold, were allegedly causing harm, therefore, hoarding had to stop. What harm did hoarding cause? It was preventing government inflation of the money supply. Inflation would cause prices to rise, which the government thought was a good thing, especially in the current deflationary environment. FDR commanded Americans to deliver their gold “to a Federal Reserve Bank or a branch or agency thereof or to any member bank of the Federal Reserve System”. Fiat Money Frees the Printing Press With the people’s gold stolen and locked up in Fort Knox, what became of the money Americans used? Today, the fiat Federal Reserve note is worth about three percent of its value in 1913, while gold—if you own some you might want to hang onto it—has maintained its value.” – George Ford Smith

The Roman Legionnaires’ Survival Strategy – “Roman soldiers trained hard, so that they could live up to the saying “Their drills are like bloodless battles and their battles are like bloody drills.” Training prepares soldiers for combat, by making their actions and responses to their enemies almost automatic. By repeating the necessary actions over and over again, the soldier responds when needed, without having to stop and think. This makes them more effective in combat, saving lives and winning victories. The same can be said for our survival training. Training isn’t about just testing out a piece of equipment, using it once to make sure it works, it’s about using it over and over again, to the point where you can use it just as well in the dark, in the middle of a storm, as you can use it sitting on your back patio.” – Bill White

Everything Is a Lie, So Why Are So Many Fooled by This Gross Deception? – ” The powerful ruling element has an explicit mission to build and promote particular nefarious agendas meant to hide and eliminate truth in favor of destroying actual knowledge. This mission entails the top-down creation of what is to be the expected reality, which never approaches anything other than a plotted perception. One tiny example of this deceit is the use of the purposely contrived term “conspiracy theorist,” which was invented only to silence truth, while protecting absolute dishonest fantasy. Mankind’s addiction to lies, something bred into the human psyche from birth, is also his downfall, for without truth, only fakery survives, while that phenomenon is forever nurtured and expanded by mass collective ignorance.” – Gary D.

Trump Moves ‘Nuclear Capable’ Bombers to Within Striking Distance of Iran – “Think about that for a minute: Iranian ballistic missiles landed 32 direct hits on the Nevatim airbase, the most heavily defended airbase on the planet. The Iranians have shown that they can put their missiles on any target in any location in Israel and Israel has no way to stop them. What does it all mean? It means that Israel is luring the United States into a war that it cannot win and that will bring the American Century to a catastrophic end.” – Mike Whitney

Trump: “Very Bad Things are Going to Happen.” Netanyahu Wants the U.S. to Destroy Iran. – “The U.S. Intelligence community, in its annual Global Threat Assessment, refuted Netanyahu’s oft-repeated claim about Iran building a nuclear weapon stating, “Iran is not building a nuclear weapon.”” – Dennis Kucinich

EXPECT MORE AND VASTLY ACCELERATED DEBT EXPANSION WITH MASSIVE CURRENCY DEVALUATION. (VIDEO) – “So Goldman Sachs now raising the Spectre of recession to 35% people we are going into something so much more dark than a recession here this is an elimination this is an extermination on multiple levels here they want to attack us via any mechanis at our core at our spirit that’s what they’re looking to do” – Gregory Mannarino

The Last Time This Happened, Stocks Collapsed 30% – “The stock market is about to trigger a “SELL” on its monthly MACD. If you’re unfamiliar with the MACD is stands for moving average convergence/divergence. It’s a technical indicator that is used to monitor momentum in the stock market. The way it works is quite technical, so to keep things simple here, you can think of the MACD as illustrating when short-term momentum shifts versus the long-term trend in the stock market. When short-term momentum breaks down against the long-term trend, it signals a “sell,” and when short-term momentum breaks out to the upside against the long-term trend, it signals “buy.” In a nutshell, the MACD is a fantastic means of catching MAJOR market turns.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Frantic COMEX Operations Continue – “Whether it’s the threat of looming tariffs, a shortage of metal due to over-leverage, a repatriation before revaluation, or something else, what’s undeniable is the surge of activity in and around the COMEX, its vaults, and its monthly delivery schedule ever since Trump won the U.S. presidential election late last year. The first thing you should be watching is the spread between the spot price (London) and the front month futures price (New York). Normally, this spread is less than $10 in gold and 20¢ in silver. However, beginning in December, the spread in each has blown out to extreme levels.” – Craig Hemke

Rising costs due to wage increases, national insurance contributions, and geopolitical tensions are significantly impacting manufacturers, particularly small businesses. Tax increases and a fall in output during the first quarter of the year have contributed to an “ominous” sign of decline in the UK manufacturing sector.” – City A.M

The draft study, “Energy, Economic, and Environmental Assessment of U.S. LNG Exports,” found that, under all modeled scenarios, an increase in U.S. LNG exports and natural gas production would not change global or U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. It further found that it would not increase energy prices for consumers.

NEWS

Convergence Calling – “The conclusion of “Joe Biden’s” Ukraine War fiasco looms. You can tell because The New York Times published a gigantic piece Sunday detailing how the Pentagon and the CIA actually ran all of Ukraine’s tactical operations out of a base in Wiesbaden, Germany — after building a colossal Ukraine war machine post our 2014 color revolution in Kiev. Since the very start of the hot war in 2022, we did all the targeting for the weapons we gave them and planned their every move. What a surprise! (Not.) The motive behind all that, as conceived by US neo-cons and NATO neo-morons, was to “weaken” Russia, bust it up, and seize its resources.” – James Howard Kunstler

Free Speech is Worth Fighting For – “First they came for foreign students expressing controversial positions and many Americans cheered because they were not foreign and did not like the opinions. But make no mistake: this war on speech will not end with only foreigners being punished. It never does.” – Ron Paul

The Woking Dead vs. the People – “Dead and still winning. Trump certainly seemed like a winner at first, bull rushing around with autopen in hand, writing executive orders and breaking the china. But what exactly has changed? Well, the stock market has collapsed. This is almost exclusively due to Trump’s ass backwards policy of implementing- or constantly threatening to implement- tariffs on other countries. That would be fine, and a good way to protect American industry. Except that our industry is gone. Shipped offshore. Outsourced for cheaper foreign labor, under NAFTA and other disastrous trade deals. You have to build new factories, and start actually making products again, so you can provide domestic competition to imports. Obviously, that should be done before you place any tariffs on anyone. What Trump is doing is a bit like what we saw in Alice in Wonderland; sentence first, verdict afterwards. Unless your goal is to crash the market. What the MAGA faithful should be learning is that you can’t govern exclusively by executive order. ” – Donald Jeffries

The case for arming Europe – “Outside the catbox: a thought experiment. A once free people teeter on the brink of conquest by dictators. If you watch too much CNN, one might suppose I speak of Ukraine or Russia or Myanmar or some other such situation, but I don’t. I speak of Europe. of the west. of the UK, Germany, and France, of Romania and Ireland. It’s getting very, very ugly over there and maybe it’s time we stopped worrying about sending guns to the war dwarf to prop up the rotten European elites through forever-war in the increasingly unfunny dark comedy club of Ukraine and started getting into the game to protect our traditional allies, the actual European people. perhaps it’s not the EU militaries suddenly discussing buying guns and tanks again that need re-arming. Perhaps it’s the European citizenry itself, our friends, the rest of the west. those who were disarmed and who stand in peril because of it.” – El Gato Malo  – GREAT POINT FROM EL GATO!!!

Changing Times – “Scan social media, comments on sites that still allow them, new media platforms like livestreaming services, and what becomes clear is that support for Israel in the United States is shifting. The days of “right-wing” influencers portraying Israel as the frontline of freedom are long gone. The one place where enthusiasm for Israel remains strong is Washington. The Trump administration is cartoonishly pro-Israel, often coming off as a parody of the old pro-Israel stance among conservatives.” – The Z Man

He is ending bloodshed across the world and will deliver lasting peace in the Middle East.”” – Caitlin Johnstone

Who Paid for the Bombs? – “On March 15 2025 President Trump started bombing the Houtis in Yemen. The scandal about leaked text messages via signal chat regarding the bombings of the Houtis in Yemen is another diversion from the real scandal. The scandal is not that military information was leaked out to media before the attack. The scandal is that the attack was illegal and unconstitutional. That seems to be ignored. President Trump had no authorization to bomb the Houtis in Yemen. There was no Declaration of War by Congress.” – Dr. Joseph Sansone

Surprise! Institute of Peace in Shutdown – “America’s Institute of Peace (USIP), admittedly a think tank that is neither that peaceful nor successful, is being shut down by the Trump administration. Meanwhile, the Institute of and for War, otherwise known as the Pentagon, is going full throttle and likely getting even more money to crank up conflict around the globe.” – Bill Astore

Macron rants and raves constantly about Russia and how he wants to send French boys to die fighting Ukraine’s border war with Putin.

THE BIG PICTURE

Choose Your Destiny – “What do you hope is your destiny? How do you want your life to unfold? I venture to say that all of us ponder these questions many times in our lives. With or without a particular faith, I doubt it is possible for anyone to live a life and not wonder what direction that life is taking. While none of us are ever in total control of our lives, we always are in command of our choices. We choose how to respond to events that unfold both good and bad. We choose whether to lash out in anger or to respond with reason.” – Peter Nayland Kust  – GOOD ONE FROM PETER!!

Driving Us to 15 Minute Cities – “It is no longer possible to find a new car for less than $20,000. Soon it will probably be difficult to find one under $30,000 – thanks to the 25 percent tax that will be folded into the cost of just about every car (and crossover) with a price around $25,000. Not to mention most trucks, too. Because almost all of those are not made in the United States, either – and they will all be hit with the 25 percent tax Trump likes to call a “tariff,” so as to try to get people to not think they’re paying it. And how much will they be paying for this tax? Bloomberg estimates the per car cost – for cars not made in the United States – will be in the vicinity of $5,855. $5,855 may not sound like all that much if you’re flush enough to be able to afford a luxury car at current prices. But there will be additional costs not mentioned in news coverage of Trump’s plan to increase the cost of vehicles – luxury and otherwise – by 25 percent in order to (somehow) make America great again. The more honest term for “Freedom Cities” is 15 Minute Cities, i.e., open air prisons where you’re nominally “free” to move around as you like but only so far as you’re physically able. And that could be the intent behind all of this – even if it is not intentional.” – Eric Peters  – AS  STATED ON THURSDAY, DEPENDING ON THE CAR IT COULD EASILY ADD $10,000 TO THE PRICE. AND AS ERIC STATES YOUR CAR INSURENCE WILL BE GOING UP AS WELL. HIS POINT ABOUT 15 MINUTE CITIES COULD BE SPOT ON!!!!!!

Ultra-Processed Life – “The digital realm, finance, and junk food have something in common: they’re all ultra-processed, synthetic versions of Nature that have been designed to be compellingly addictive, to the detriment of our health and quality of life. In focusing on the digital realm, money (i.e. finance, “growth,” consuming more as the measure of all that is good) and eating more of what tastes good, we now have an Ultra-Processed Life. All three– the digital realm, money in all its manifestations and junk food–are all consumed: they all taste good, i.e. generate endorphin hits, and so they draw us into their synthetic Ultra-Processed World.” – Charles Hugh Smith

The Big Picture & the Decline of The West – ““The West” — the U.S.-and-‘allied’ (i.e., colonies) countries — are shrinking as a percentage of global GDP PPP (Gross Domestic Product at Purchasing-Power-Parity, this being the real measure of an economy). Their approximately 2,000 billionaires, whose percentage of that national wealth has been increasing while that of their countries are declining, are becoming less and less dependent upon exploiting the entire world. Thus, these billionaires are becoming more and more dependent upon exploiting their own people — their domestic population of workers and consumers. It is the stage of imperial over-reach.” – Eric Zuesse

If so, who was responsible? Was it Waltz? Is there an anti-Trumper on Waltz’s staff, or was his Signal account possibly hacked by an outsider?

The title symbolized the loss of traditional English culture due to ‘Americanization’, such as increasing commercialism, consumerism and materialism. It also referred to the UK’s economic struggles, including inflation, industrial disputes and debates about joining the European Economic Community. And the title used a pun on ‘pound’ as both currency and weight, emphasizing the commercialization of British identity. Much has changed in the 52 years since that album was released. There is not much left of Britain to sell after decades of neoliberal globalization.” – Colin Todhunter

Preparing for War Is an American Institution – “In her book, The Trillion Dollar Silencer, Joan Roelofs asks: “Why is there so much acceptance of and so little protest against our government’s illegal and immoral wars and other military operations? Why is there mostly silence about the death and destruction that wars and even the preparation for war inflict on people, Her answer is in her title: You might think that the money goes for weapons, but much of it is used to purchase universities and faculties, think tanks, nonprofit organizations, state and local governments, media, contractors, and foreign governments. The Department of Defense tentacles reach everywhere. With so many so dependent on DOD handouts, there is no one left to protest.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Trump Tariffs Gone Wild – “The U.S. stock market’s recent zigs and zags have triggered considerable excitement. Wall Street pros, private money managers, and Millennial index fund enthusiasts have all been whipsawed by the market’s swift up and down movements. No one can seem to stay ahead of President Trump’s ‘make it up as you go’ tariff games. Trump clarified the rules of the game to reporters in the Oval Office on March 21. Specifically, he intends to be flexible on tariffs when it is to the advantage of American companies. What does this mean?” – MN Gordon

However, if markets were scared about the US economy, German and Japanese sovereign bonds would not have declined. Furthermore, at the close of this article, 493 stocks in the S&P 500 are flat in the first quarter despite having reached all-time highs in 2024 and all the negative headlines of 2025. Tariffs are a global concern. However, most investors seemed to be blissfully unaware of the enormous trade barriers and tariffs implemented by the European Union or China in recent years. Market participants seemed perfectly happy with rising tariffs and trade barriers against the United States from other nations. ” – Daniel Lacalle  – IS DANIEL BEING A LITTLE CONTRARIAN HERE!!!

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

Take a little walk to the edge of town
and go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms,
like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where secrets lie in the border fires,
in the humming wires
Hey man, you know
you’re never coming back
Past the square, past the bridge,
past the mills, past the stacks
On a gathering storm comes
a tall handsome man
in a dusty black coat with
a red right hand

He’ll wrap you in his arms,
tell you that you’ve been a good boy
He’ll rekindle all the dreams
it took you a lifetime to destroy
He’ll reach deep into the hole,
heal your shrinking soul,
but there won’t be a single thing
that you can do
He’s a god, he’s a man,
he’s a ghost, he’s a guru
They’re whispering his name
through this disappearing land
But hidden in his coat
is a red right hand

You don’t have no money?
He’ll get you some
You don’t have no car?
He’ll get you one
You don’t have no self-respect,
you feel like an insect
Well don’t you worry buddy,
’cause here he comes
Through the ghettos and the barrio
and the bowery and the slum
A shadow is cast wherever he stands
Stacks of green paper in his
red right hand

You’ll see him in your nightmares,
you’ll see him in your dreams
He’ll appear out of nowhere but
he ain’t what he seems
You’ll see him in your head,
on the TV screen
And hey buddy, I’m warning
you to turn it off
He’s a ghost, he’s a god,
he’s a man, he’s a guru
You’re one microscopic cog
in his catastrophic plan
Designed and directed by
his red right hand

( Red Right Hand by Nick Cave, Thomas Wydler and Mick Harvey )

The American Public Will Have To Step In To Eliminate The Parasitic Bureaucracy – “The reasons why conservatives fight so adamantly for smaller government have never been more obvious than they are today. Of course, this is unsustainable. The system will completely collapse well before another decade ends; under the weight of rising interest rates or under the weight of exponential inflation. We are already seeing the results of the spending bonanza through ongoing stagflation. Prices on most goods are 30% higher (or more) in the past 5 years. Home prices and rent costs are up at least 50% on average. Americans are being financially suffocated.” – Brandon Smith

They walked away from the system — and built a farm instead (VIDEO) – “When they hit rock bottom, Christina and Clinton Rarey found healing through raw milk, faith, and community. Their story is a roadmap for resilience.” – Collapse Life

33 Degrees of Tyrannical Fraud – “The number 33 – it’s globalist for psy-op, mate! On April 27, 2018, Bill Gates – who has zero health or medical qualifications – gave a lecture to the Massachusetts Medical Society on epidemic preparedness. Kermit the Human claimed an “animated simulation” by the Institute for Disease Modeling showed “if a highly contagious and lethal airborne pathogen – like the 1918 flu – were to occur today… Nearly 33 million people worldwide would die in just six months.” He repeated this claim, not just at his website, but in a 2018 New England Journal of Medicine article. ” – Anthony Colpo

Is AIPAC Getting What They Want in DC? – “or why is the Lobby so cranky! Pro-Israel lobbies and organizations got what they paid for in 2024. Hundreds of millions of dollars of pro-Zionist donations to the Trump campaign and Trump-aligned PACs helped elect Trump, and every important appointment, and some less important ones are vocal Israel-firsters. Pre-existing massive military and other aid from the US taxpayer to Israel has been expanded under Trump. Avid Zionists lead the State Department, the Pentagon, and direct national intelligence. Zionist Steve Witkoff serves as the President’s envoy and chief diplomat in the two major wars the US has been supporting for years, wars Trump wants to resolve in the first half of his last term. Why, it should be almost perfect, from an AIPAC point of view: a completely controlled executive branch, and a 99% controlled US Congress! The only Republican member of Congress without an AIPAC handler is Kentucky’s Thomas Massie, and both parties have seen its Israel-questioning members successfully primaried or otherwise replaced.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

If they only had knife control…. – “Have you ever talked with a European friend and heard something like this: You need gun control to stop all the shootings. Another day and another stabbing over there. This is the story:” – Silvio Canto, Jr.

Oh, don’t pretend you don’t know what lawfare is – “The term “lawfare” is, basically, using the legal system to go after your enemies. We all saw how they did that with President Trump while he was out of office. They wanted to destroy him so that he couldn’t get back into office, which we can see worked brilliantly, and to overall punish him for not playing to their tune That includes prosecuting him for fraud over a loan he got that he paid back in full, because they say he overvalued his assets. Again, he paid it back, meaning he didn’t actually make any money directly from this supposed fraud, but that’s what they went after him for. Among other things. We all know what lawfare is. More importantly, we know what it isn’t. It’s not punishing people for very clear crimes, such as the destruction of private property through violent crimes like arson and shooting up dealerships. Yet one Democrat wants you to think that it is.” – Tom Knighton

Mark Carney is a mirage – “Plagiarism accusations only the latest evidence he’s been oversold ” – National Post View

A Ghoul in a Suit with the Ethics of An Alley Cat – “Carnage wherever he goes. Doesn’t he look half-dead? Like a shroud covers his saggy emaciated face and spindly body. Indicative of lifelessness of his ideas. NOT his actual ideas because what he is currently selling are the ideas he stole from Canada’s Conservative Party. Because above everything Liberal Party looting must continue. And with Net Zero and all that elite clap trap there will be another three generations of Canadians to ruin, to steal from, to harvest their life’s energy to feed the Party’s enormous ego and the plush lifestyles in the posh suburbs of Canada.” – Elizabeth Nickson

Elbow Markcaroney – “What is it with these people charged with creating campaign slogans? They obviously reached the point of drunken desperation late into the wee hours to have come up with this latest one for Canada’s Mark Carney. I cringe to tell you but it is “Elbows up.” They had to have been completely past the point of rational to think that people would catch on to sticking their elbows up in the air as some sort of rallying gesture. Good heavens! They look like deranged ducks in a tizzy. As a Canadian I do feel like I have to apologize to the world for subjecting anyone to witnessing such cringeworthy behaviours. We didn’t get to vote on that one. Well… on a lot of things, but that is beside the point.” – Sylvia Shawcross

Putin’s Ideological Plan For UN in Ukraine Overruled – “Soros still owns Ukraine. The UK and France will manipulate on Soros behalf. Netanyahu will send in agitators. NED, whose funding was reinstated by Rubio, will instigate another Revolution. And Ukraine will simply be back to 2014 – minus half the citizens. WHY? Because It’s status as the Bread Basket of all the organ harvesting and trafficking, the child trafficking and harvesting, all the drugs shipped on ‘grain’ trains, needs to resume for the Mafia Cartel to recoup its losses. And the status quo will never change. While WWIII is simply postponed.” – Helena Glass

SITREP 3/28/25: Putin Vows to ‘Finish Off’ Ukraine? – “Putin made some very interesting statements in his meeting with the sailors of the Arkhangelsk nuclear submarine in Murmansk, ones bound to reignite hope in the doomsayer quarters who’ve long believed Putin is looking for any opportunity to ‘concede to the West’. The first was that Russia will no longer make mistakes of being ‘led by the nose’ by Western partners, and that any conflict settlements will have to come by virtue of meeting Russian conditions.” – Simplicius

THE US ECONOMY IS FREEFALLING FASTER, PREPARE FOR IMPACT. (AND THIS IS WHATS NEXT.)(VIDEO) – Gregory Mannarino

Silver is Finally Breaking Out—Here’s What You Need to Know – “Silver surged to a 13-year high today, fueled by growing speculation of a potential silver squeeze and accelerating momentum behind the March 31st ‘Buy Silver Day’ movement. Today was an exciting day for silver, which surged 2.52% and finally broke above the key $34–$35 resistance zone I’ve been watching for months—a level I’ve called the line in the sand to confirm a true breakout and the beginning of the next phase in the bull market.” – Jesse Colombo – GOT SILVER? HAS DROPPED BACK DOWN A LITTLE BIT THE PAST DAY. WE’LL SEE WHAT NEXT WEEK BRINGS!!

It’s Official… the Economy is Starting to Break – “I warned that the Fed was going to break something. Well, things are starting to break. The latest round of economic data was disastrous. Consumer confidence collapsed to its lowest reading since January 2021. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the Expectations Index, which is based on consumers’ views on income, business and labor market conditions, COLLAPSED to 65.2.” – Graham Summers, MBA

The Fallacy of Reciprocal Tariffs – “It should be obvious by now that the Donald’s north star is “winning” and nothing else, and that he keeps score by whatever metric is handy. On trade, the scorecard is simply the bilateral merchandise trade balance of whichever country comes to mind at any given moment, and, crucially, whether the balance figure has a plus or minus sign in front of it.” – David Stockman

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

EU Publishes Delusional 72 Hour Bug Out Bag Video In Preparation For War – “With all the insufferable quirkiness of a drunken liberal wine-mom, EU Commissioner for humanitarian aid and crisis management, Hadja Lahbib, explains the “essentials” of an emergency go-bag in a video designed for the average European facing epic disaster should NATO (minus the US) go to war. Keep in mind, these are the same people that ridiculed the preparedness movement only ten years ago and then accused survivalists of being “hoarders” during the covid lockdowns. Suddenly the EU elites claim to be concerned about the survival pantries of the citizenry and this may be a signal of expanding hostilities between Europe and Russia. The advice given, however, is not useful and one can only conclude that the EU is only trying to make it look like they care should the geopolitical situation go sideways. Hadja Lahbib’s video is not tongue-in-cheek parody – She is quite serious. ” – Tyler Durden  – WATCH THE SHORT X VIDEO, IT’S LAUGHABLE

Bedlam, Pending – “You understand, all these lawsuit shenanigans with select federal judges from Woke-crazed districts like Boston, San Francisco, Rhode Island, and the DC Beltway are aimed at provoking a second civil war. The objective is to burden Mr. Trump with so many restrictions on the executive that the country can’t be governed without declaring a national emergency. This is the Democratic Party’s desperate strategy to stay alive: to preserve the flow of taxpayer money to its minions stuffed into the organs of government like cancer cells, and the vast network of NGOs that employ its agents and spread its sickness. The Democratic Party is a malignancy within the republic and the money is the blood-flow that feeds it. The Democratic Party controls the major organs of information: The New York Times, CNN, Hollywood. They are the conveyers of lies, bamboozling the body politic to divide and conquer it. The Democratic party is a bad faith legion enlisted to defend the Father-of-Lies, America’s Deep State (a.k.a. the blob). ” – James Howard Kunstler

A Denial of Will – “A denial of Trump’s agenda is a denial of the will of the people. The inability, or unwillingness, of the state governments to operate a faithful and accurate election is a denial of the will of the people. The act of being elected to pursue certain goals and abandoning those quests in favor of the preference of a donor or donors is a denial of the will of the people. All of these tactics, and more, are currently being used to silence a vast majority of citizens, to keep their will from being done.” – T.L. Davis

Why do Boomers Own Everything? – ” Last week Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reported that the top 10% of Americans account for half of consumption — a new record. This 10% is, of course, overwhelmingly Baby Boomers. Who’ve spent the past 50 years having their assets pumped by the Federal Reserve while voting for big government that knocks the first rungs out of the career ladder for the young. The end result is Boomers relaxing in vacation chalets while for the young wages are flat, prices are up, and buying a house or starting a family is a pipe-dream.

THE BIG PICTURE

The Deep State Revelations CERCLE – “People like Dominic Cummings, chief advisor to former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, have a habit of revealing things we’re not supposed to know about how government operates. They often expose the motives and acts of what many these days call the deep state. Cummings described how “people like Bill Gates and that kind of network” of globalist oligarchs were telling the UK government what its Covid emergency response should be. In other words, Cummings was confessing that the general public’s perception of government is “all nonsense.” Government is just “staged theatre” to keep us believing in the “fake” political system. The BBC kindly fact-checked Cummings’ 2021 Committee statement to ensure the British people were being properly informed. But, instead of investigating his revelation about an oligarch networks, the BBC desperately tried to convince its audience that politicians alone were the ones making the decisions (even though Cummings had clearly indicated that they are not the decision-makers).” – Iain Davis

The whole of the pantomime at the WEF can get a bit rich.. Fortunately, the commoner color revolution rising all over the world in response to these ersatz aristocrats and presumptive engineers of societal railroading who had been so keen to tie us all to the tracks of their global ambitions has now gained too much momentum to stop.” – El Gato Malo

Bioterror Roundup: The Chicken Slaughterings Will Continue Until Morale Improves – “In the First World — growing up in Atlanta, I’m guilty myself — we enjoy the luxury of insulating ourselves from the more gruesome realities of life. Our meat comes packaged neatly in plastic wrapping on aisle whatever, we buy it, cook it, and never think twice about where it came from before it ended up at Kroger. The reality is that factory-farmed livestock go through hell — and all the more so, unnecessarily, when there’s an alleged virus that some Public Health™ goon can conjure a positive PCR test up for and then every bird gets the literal hose. In addition to getting drenched in firefighting foam until they choke on it, the operators of these factory farms, under USDA orders, also throttle the heat in the warehousing facilities until they succumb to heat stroke.” – Ben Bartee – CULLING CHICKENS FOR THE SCAM, WHAT’S NEXT, HUMANS!!!

We’ve created a monster military, a “global strike” force, that is capable of destroying any target anywhere around the globe. “Nobody else even close,” SecDef Hegseth correctly says. And because we can do it, because we are exceptional in military force, our leaders believe we should do it, even if it’s only to send a “message” to the world how tough we are, how committed we are to killing others. Other countries—like those “free-loading” European ones—are PATHETIC because they don’t have America’s military might. Only we can smite evildoers around the globe, only we can do so while also arming Israel to the teeth and covering its flanks while it continues its annihilation of Gaza, and this is something we are immensely proud of.” – Bill Astore

We Are All Amalekites – “Israeli leaders constantly refer to the Palestinian people as being “Amalekites.” But their Jewish supremacy goes even further than that. Benjamin Netanyahu and his fellow Zionists constantly refer to the Palestinian people (the “Amalekites”) as “animals” and “subhuman” that can be mercilessly tortured and killed with moral and civil impunity. The Amalekites during the days of Moses were the descendants of Esau, the son of Isaac and brother of Jacob—so they were biologically the nephews and nieces of Jacob (renamed “Israel” by Jehovah). The point being, the Old Testament Scriptures make it clear that the Amalekites were people (human beings)—even kinsmen of the Israelites. The God of Abraham and Moses never regarded the Amalekites as anything other than people—wicked people, but people nonetheless.” – Chuck Baldwin

I believe that while I may not have an obligation to provide a platform for someone’s speech as a private individual, they have a God-given right to say whatever they want elsewhere, and the state has no say in the matter. They shouldn’t be barred from public spaces, no matter how objectionable their speech might be. There are exceptions to what should be permitted. Vandalism and threats, for example, aren’t protected, nor should they be. But over the years, I’ve seen a lot of cases of “hate speech” that fell into one or the other of these categories that was no such thing. They include everything from swastikas placed on walls to nooses hanging hither and yon. If real, they would be troubling. They almost never are. And neither was this one:” – Tom Knighton

If this is a honeypot operation run by the federal government—whether the ATF or another agency—its web developers should refine the website’s rough appearance; it looks rushed and clumsily mimics the now-defunct Polymer80 site. Notice how “Glock Switch” product is number one on the list, which tells you all you need to know about intentions here: entrapment.” – Tyler Durden

Who is Nigel Farage? – “This is a question that British journalists have yet to ask. But they will soon begin to dig deep into the Reform leader’s past.

Farage is someone who changes his political views like a chameleon, changing the colour of his own political identity to suit what the mood is and how to profit from it. Although one of the few people in British politics who has gone on the record as saying that the West provoked Russia in Ukraine, hence the invasion, Farage for the moment is keeping a distance from Putin.” – Martin Jay

ECONOMIC NEWS

WARNING! IT MAY BE TOO LATE, BUT MAYBE WE CAN STILL FIX THIS??? (VIDEO). – Gregory Mannarino

Trump’s Chances for Saving the US Economy—Are Zilch – “We are being told, once again, that tax cuts for rich corporations will kick-start this economy for a mission to bring manufacturing home. However, the Trump Administration, backed by 8 or 9 of the world’s richest men (corporations), except for Musk, are Wall Street guys who made their billions in finance. They allot few dollars to research and development. Instead they fluff up balance sheets—buying back their shares. Tax-cutting Silicon Valley will not re-industrialize the US—cutting taxes on the rich tends to increase government debt. Wharton School of Economics projections see Trump’s economic plan to re-industrialize America, as raising debt levels $5.8 trillion. The government has no money. Funding for its mission (whether good or bad). comes from our tax dollars or dollars borrowed ahead—in our name. Tariffs are also taxes. Plans to make an economy sustainable, not thought-out, only make it worse.” – neverhadaboss.com

Trump places 25% tariff on imported autos. Carmakers could face higher costs and lower sales- “To underscore his seriousness, Trump said, “This is permanent.”” – Josh Boak – PRETTY MUCH ALL AUTOS ARE FOREIGN-MADE TO SOME EXTENT.

Coming to America? – “Hyundai – which also owns Kia and Genesis, the Korean automaker’s luxury-line – just announced the other day that it will be investing $20 billion in manufacturing operations in the United States, including a new steel plant in Louisiana that will reportedly employ 1,500 Americans. This is huge – even if President Trump didn’t use one of his favorite words to say so. But is it on account of his tariffs? Naturally, the president is saying yes. But that’s dubious given Hyundai had probably been planning its investment for some time before the president announced his plan to tax – whoops, tariff – things such as cars manufactured outside America to the tune of 25 percent. Trump’s attempt to undo the damage – by taxing Americans who want to buy things not manufactured in this country – will only make Americans even poorer than most of them (save the vulture capitalist class that has fed to gorging on “free trade” with China, et al) already are.
