If Faith Is Not Hard, It Is Not Faith – “If the path goes uphill, I must walk up that hill. If the path is long, I must do a lot of walking. If I don’t walk the path, I cannot go anywhere. We often speak about faith in terms of a journey. In my case, it has been quite a journey, with multiple detours and unexpected turns.” – Peter Nayland Kust  – ANOTHER GOOD ONE FROM PETER!!!

The Nephilim: Those Who from Heaven Came to Earth – “The Real Invasion Is Silent, Patient, and Already Complete. They’re fallen angels. They’re the offspring of angels who abandoned their stations and bred with humans. The Bible calls them Nephilim. The Book of Enoch describes them in detail. Giants. Corrupting humanity. Teaching forbidden knowledge. Operating outside God’s design. They’ve been here for millennia, not decades. Long before Sumer. Long before Egypt.

Blood and Soil – “Forget what they told you about money. Wealth is land. The dirt. The water. The things that grow. Everything else is a lie, a piece of paper, a number on a screen that can vanish. A people needs land to live. And the land needs a people to defend it. This is the old, hard truth. It’s the only truth that’s ever mattered. From the beginning, it was like this. Men fought for a good piece of ground. They held it. They worked it. They passed it on. This is civilization. Not the banks. Not the stock markets. It’s a family, a tribe, a people standing on their own soil and saying this is ours. It’s a wall against the parasites and the weak, and the greedy who would take it. This is the real work. The only work. To be a guardian.” – E.M. Burlingame

Technototalitarianism, Part Three – “The GENIUS (Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins) Act, signed into law by President Trump on July 18, 2025, is misnamed. It should have been named the EVIL GENIUS Act, as in one of those evil geniuses in James Bond films. The U.S. may never have CBDCs, but the evil GENIUS Act sets up one of those public-private partnerships so beloved by Trump and his technototalitarian cronies, which has the same civil-liberties-destroying potential. Stablecoins are a digital currency emitted by private parties, tied in value to a specific currency (or, theoretically, an asset or index). In the case of so-called payment stablecoins, which the GENIUS Act primarily addresses, the stablecoins are tied to the price of the U.S. dollar (USD). ” – Robert Gore  – ANOTHER GOOD READ FROM ROBERT.

On October 19, on his social “Truth ,” Trump took the accusation a step further. He said Petro “is an illegal drug leader strongly encouraging the massive production of drugs, in big and small fields, all over Colombia.” The problem for the US with Gustavo Petro is not drugs.

It is also in keeping with the sexual scandals that have constantly been happening in the White House throughout its history, from the affairs between John F.

Food-Based Magnesium Just Works Better – “Here’s the simple truth—magnesium was never meant to come from a lab. It’s a mineral that lives in soil, plants, and real food. In nature, it’s surrounded by a team of other nutrients—zinc, manganese, iron, amino acids, and even plant compounds—that all work together to help your body absorb and use it properly. Those nutrients are called cofactors, and they’re what make food-based minerals far more effective than the synthetic versions you’ll find in pills. Here’s where pumpkin seeds really shine. They’re not just loaded with magnesium—they come with all the supporting players magnesium needs to perform.’ – Bill Heid – HAVE LINKED A FEW ARTICLES ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF MAGNESIUM, JUST SEARCH IN THE SITE’S SEARCH BAR, BUT THIS IS THE FIRST ONE ABOUT GETTING IT NATURALLY.

THE BIG PICTURE

In Order for This Population to Wake Up to Reality Would Require a Mass Reincarnation – “The sheer reality of this world today, is that tradition, honesty, morality, empathy, and certainly harmony amongst common men, is being systematically destroyed (and voluntarily accepted) right before our eyes, as the multitude of plebiscites continue down the road of apathy as solution. This can in some degree be seen as untrue because history is replete with revolution, overthrow of governments, riots in the streets, and the end of oligarchical regimes once they become too far economically separated from the much larger ruled populations. Where I disagree with many who look at these revolutions as the people rising up to gain freedom and prosperity, is that each and every time, they rebuild a system bound to fail, all with so-called new ‘leaders’ who are simply like the old ‘leaders.’ ” – Gary D. Barnett

It’s the story of how debt paved the road to extreme wealth and power for a few, often to the detriment of the many. Next up is the story of the bankers who drove the world into World War I—Rothschilds again, Barrans, Morgans, and others—the people who financed both sides and then decided an Allied victory was necessary for their continued profits, which they accomplished by getting the US to enter the war.” – Ohio Barbarian – THE BARBARIAN PROVIDES TWO GOOD VIDEOS TO WATCH!!!!

Masonic Mormons and American Zionism (VIDEO) – “Colonialism Cults. Born in 1805, the story goes that 14-year-old Joseph Smith was visited by God and Jesus Christ who called upon him to restore the true church in preparation for the end of the world and the Second Coming of Christ. He later transcribed what became the Book of Mormon. The entire Mormon religion is based on the belief that the world will soon end, and that a Jewish State must be created in Palestine. The LDS Church, who identify as descendants of ancient Israel, was the only religious organization to officially support Israel’s creation in 1948. In 1989, Mormons founded a University in East Jerusalem. The LDS Church is worth billions today, they are the main contender for the most Zionist organization of America, and Charlie Kirk said that half of his team were Mormons.” – Greg Reese

Trump administration won’t use contingency fund to pay November food stamp benefits – “The US Department of Agriculture says it will not tap into its $6 billion contingency fund to cover food stamp benefits next month if the shutdown continues, according to an agency memo obtained by CNN.

Trump’s comments appear to conflict with the agency’s memo” – Tami Luhby

What I Learned at This Week’s White House Press Conference – ““Every boat we strike saves the lives of 25,000 Americans,” says Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. Wouldn’t that be something if it were true! How simple the problems of our post-imperial US world would be! The White House press conference of October 23rd centered on the President, sitting on a golden chair between Ken and Barbie. His staff of beautiful women and slightly eggheaded men all articulately competing to flatter the President for his brilliance, his boldness, his courage, his caretaking commitment to the United States. He commended his staff as “most talented” at what they do, “naturals,” he said, reading my mind when I had assumed they were made of plastic. When asked if he would request a Declaration of War from Congress for his ongoing war for Venezuelan oil and regional supremacy, Trump answered in the negative. He said, no, we are just going to kill people. Trump – speaking for the executive branch and Americans in general – is simply going to kill people.

But before these major challenges can even be tackled, it seems like priority #1 is getting rid of the public sector officials who routinely abuse their positions.” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

Don’t Bail out Soybeans – “Question: What does a business do when nobody wants its product or services? Answer: It asks for the federal government to bail it out and pay for a product nobody wants. If this sounds silly to you, consider what’s going on with America’s soybean farmers who lost a quarter of their market when China decided to switch sourcing to Brazil and Argentina in the last couple of months. As a farmer myself, my heart breaks for the plummeting prices and the prospect of losing $200 per acre on the 2025 crop. But on the other side of my breaking heart is a desire to hear any soybean farmer say, “I’m going to grow something profitable.” You’d think in a capitalistic society someone raising soybeans would recognize simple principles in supply and demand. You can’t keep supplying when demand wanes and expect a sugar daddy to subsidize your bank account.” – Joel Salatin

These countries are now asking just how much more they are willing to give. Ever since Russia’s invasion in 2022, Ukrainian citizens aged 18 to 60 have been able to leave the country only with official permission. But at the end of August, Kyiv decided to liberalize the law, allowing young men aged 18 to 22 to travel abroad. According to data from the German Interior Ministry, the number of Ukrainians coming to Germany per week increased from just 19 in August to over 1,000 in September.

THE BIG PICTURE

Multiculturalism Is A Globalist Weapon And You’re Not Allowed To Protect Yourself – “If you were alive to witness the events of 9/11, you probably remember the sudden emergence of the “Coexist” bumper stickers and t-shirts across the US after the tragedy. The intended message being that different cultures must be “tolerant” of each other and live in harmony. If you caught yourself with a twinge of visible pain in your face every time you saw this slogan, you were not alone. We have learned over thousands of generations that culture is not just social expression, it is a carefully crafted fortress protecting us from being invaded and destroyed by hostile forces seeking to take what we have created. Homogeneous culture helps to maintain the values that keep our societies safe, industrious and stable.” – Brandon Smith

Reality v. Garbage – “Which is to say, there is Reality, and then there is every other cockamamie aggregate of simulation pretending to represent Reality, i.e. garbage. How many millions among us already subscribe to the latter? Apparently, lots, and they are not evenly distributed these days. You surely know where to look for the un-Reality. The party of men can get pregnant, and all the rest. . . . Enter A-I to make things worse. Probably a lot worse. We have failed to learn the chief lesson of the computer age, which is that the virtual is not an acceptable substitute for the authentic. So, we plunge deeper into realms of the un-real and the inauthentic.” – James Howard Kunstler

Euthanasia is on the rise in the West – “Western nations have embraced killing off their own citizens, something that coincides with their importing new “citizens.” According to reports, 37% more people were euthanized in New Zealand last year than the year before. Progress, right? Euthanizing older folks with allegedly terminal conditions is becoming more common in many Western nations. And, in some cases, those who aren’t elderly at all. And those who may just be really depressed. And, well, you can see where this is headed.” – Eric Utter

Nobody Asked for This: The IRS’s Plan to Take Over Tax Filing – “Back in 2022, President Joe Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act, and among its many provisions was the Direct File pilot program. This allowed Americans to have their tax bills prepared directly by the IRS rather than by accountants or tax preparation software like TurboTax. It’s one thing to have the IRS collecting taxes, but to put it in charge of filing taxes raises a clear conflict of interest. The IRS is an agency of the federal government and thus has an interest in collecting as much in tax revenue as possible. Taxes, after all, fund the paychecks of IRS employees. So while private tax preparers have an incentive to save their customers as much as possible so they’ll be hired again the following year, the IRS is different. Its motivation is to overlook exemptions and credits that might leave more money in taxpayers’ pockets.” – Steve Cortes

The Government Wrecking Ball Edition – “If I had written at the start of October that the president would destroy a third of the White House before the end of the month, some of my own readers (I know by experience) would have told me I have Trump derangement syndrome. The White House is beloved by a majority of Americans as an iconic structure equal to the Washington Monument. Yet, in less than a week, a third of a structure that has stood the test of time through American history with modifications along the way, has been laid to ruin without any word about what was going to happen by presidential decree, covered with a lie that promised nothing like that would happen. While a poll today shows the vast majority of Americans hate what just happened to the White House, congress barely seems to care.

Tucker EN FUEGO: Taking Stock of MAGA, Ten Years on – “He had me at the Animal Farm cold open — referencing the above concluding paragraph of perhaps the best political work in history, which never fails to send chills down my spine no matter how many times I’ve read it. I don’t have much commentary to add to the above monologue because Tucker hit the nail so hard on the head that piling on would feel gratuitous — except to say that the long-promised Draining of the Swamp has yet to come anything close to fruition, as the creatures that populate said Swamp yet cling bitterly to power. Ominously, ten years into the MAGA revolution, Trump’s very first campaign event in the upcoming election cycle will be in the service of re-electing closeted neocon extraordinaire Lindsey Graham — even though his own base has made it clear six ways from Sunday that they despise the lispy weasel. WTF is going on here?” – Ben Bartee  – INCLUDES TUCKER CARLSON’S LATEST VIDEO ON THE MAGA MOVEMENT WHICH IS QUITE GOOD WHEN YOU HAVE A COUPLE OF HOURS TO WATCH IT!!!!!!!!!!!

Retrograde America – “Drill, Baby, Drill; Bomb, Baby, Bomb. I never imagined that America’s strategic nuclear bombers—the high-tech pride and joy of Strategic Air Command (SAC), fielded to deter or, if necessary, wage nuclear war against a superpower that no longer exists—would one day be used as crude instruments of intimidation against a small Latin American country that has no defense against them.” – Bill Astore

Trump’s growing beef in the heartland – “President Trump is facing a growing political problem in America’s agricultural heartland, as he looks to import Argentinian beef to help bring down prices for U.S. grocery shoppers. The Trump administration is reportedly looking to quadruple low-tariff imports from Argentina, raising the quota to 80,000 metric tons per year.

Gresham’s Law says buy the dip – “Nervousness in precious metals is not going to stop the gold and silver bull market. Underweight portfolios are beginning to drive prices through ETF accumulation. This one-week selloff appears spectacular but should be observed in the context of the previous rise. If support at $4000 fails, the gold chart suggests that support will then be found at about $3750, when the price should coincide with the rapidly rising 55-day moving average. Silver, being more volatile on charting grounds should be the weaker of the two in this scenario. But silver is still in backwardation, though the disparity between spot and the active future has declined to about 20 cents, suggesting some temporary supply has reached the London market.” – Alasdair Macleod

SILVER MONETIZED: India’s GAME CHANGER Banking Rule Triggers Global Precious Metals Revolution – “For the first time since the 1800s, a major government has officially re-monetized silver—and not just symbolically.

In a single stroke, silver has gone from a traded commodity to a trusted monetary anchor—a change that could ripple through global markets for years to come.” – The Silver Academy

I want people to understand something; it is normal for a pullback when a market has gotten so hot. ‘ – Greg Hunter

Why Precious Metals Are So Volatile Right Now – “Despite their well-earned reputations as stable assets and safe havens, gold and silver have become highly volatile in recent weeks, with sharp moves in both directions. 10 oz Silver Bars (Design Our Choice) 10 oz Silver Bars (Design Our Choice) Price & Buy This marks a significant change in behavior and has sparked widespread discussion across the financial world, particularly after last week’s steep declines. Gold dropped from $4,400 to $4,000, a loss of about 9%, while silver fell from $54 to $48, or roughly 11%, all within just a couple of days.

Stochastic Hitler – The politics of “Little Brother”.  Your little brother pokes, prods, provokes, and pesters and when you hit him back, he erupts in wailing to mom and plays to the audience that is not there. This is the praxis of the modern Marxist activist. They ram ICE vehicles and make the response about the officers “attacking innocent Americans.” They flood the schools with gender activists seeking to impose absurdist ideologies on unsuspecting children then scream “Fascism! Trust the experts! Free speech!” When parents object or want some say in the matter. they flood the country with low-trust immigrants getting buckets full of free stuff and then claim you are racist or Islamophobic for not wanting to pay for it or to have your voting rights adulterated by counting them in the census or giving them outright suffrage because “voter ID is racist.” They accuse you of hating and disrespecting their institutions as they parade bare-breasted trans-women on the white house lawn at easter.” – El Gato Malo

Trump’s God Complex, Slavish Pandering To Israel And War Against Thomas Massie And Rand Paul – “Donald Trump is more than a bad president; he is a very bad man (to use Trump’s lingo). America has had several presidents with loose morals, but we’ve never had one (well, except for perhaps Abraham Lincoln and Lyndon Johnson) who had NO morals. It’s really difficult to realize, much less articulate, just how much toxic damage Trump has wrought in the hearts and minds of the people on the political and religious right. Of course, they themselves are unable to recognize it, but devotion and loyalty to Trump have cost them their moral conscience, their mental capacity to reason and, yes, the forfeiture of their humanity. ” – Chuck Baldwin

The “All” Americans – “Why the disinformation war will start a real one. If the only thing that separates one charge of authoritarianism, tyranny and oppression from another is a political party, you have a nation on the verge of civil war. When political lines are so clearly defined, threats so clearly made, there can be only one outcome. Everything the left charges Trump with doing has been done by Biden in total silence, at least from the left. So, it isn’t so much that those actions by a president are bad. What makes it good, or bad, is whether a Democrat or Republican did it.” – T.L. Davis

Trump has boasted of the killings by the U.S. military but claims all the targets were drug smugglers. Trump has threatened to suspend all U.S. government handouts for the Colombian government. Trump warned that Petro that he “better close up” cocaine production “or the United States will close them up for him, and it won’t be done nicely.” Tapping his own psychiatric expertise, Trump proclaimed that Colombia has “the worst president they’ve ever had – a lunatic with serious mental problems.” Is anyone in the Trump White House aware of the long history of U.S. failure in that part of the world?” – James Bovard

Who Would Jesus Bomb? The Gospel According to the Military-Industrial Complex – “For a man supposedly intent on winning a Nobel Peace Prize, Donald Trump spends an extraordinary amount of time waging war, threatening to wage war, and fantasizing about waging war. Notwithstanding his dubious claims about having ended “seven un-endable wars,” Trump has continued to squander the American people’s resources and moral standing by feeding the military-industrial complex’s insatiable appetite for war—preemptively bombing nuclear facilities in Iran, blowing up fishing boats in the Caribbean, and flexing military muscle at every opportunity. Even the Trump administration’s version of “peace through strength” is filtered through a prism of violence, intimidation and strongman tactics.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

President Trump Seems Itching for Multiple Wars in the Western Hemisphere – “Donald Trump seems to be following through in his second term as president on the threat of a United States war on Venezuela he made in his first term. The justification the Trump administration presents for all this is that it is part of the US government’s drug war, an endeavor that has meted out death, destruction, and rights abuses decade after decade as drug use in America continues along. Trump seems not to be content to go to war against just Venezuela whose President Nicolás Maduro he has proclaimed is a drug kingpin. Trump on Sunday pegged the president of neighboring Western Hemisphere nation Colombia with the same accusation used against Maduro.” – Adam Dick

The Shutdown Show – “The government “shutdown” is a show, of course – because the government hasn’t actually shut down. All that’s happened, mainly, is a show of some recipients of government checks not receiving them. The money that finances these checks continues to be collected (via taxes) or created ex nihilo – via the “Fed,” that entity that the banking cartel created to run the government. People who work outside the government – who earn rather than take their living – cannot tell that the government has “shut down” because they are still having to pay the taxes that the government redistributes to those who take rather than earn their living; they are still having to comply with the laws and regulations imposed by the government. If the government had truly shut down, they would be free to do business – and to keep the earnings (all of them) generated by their labor.” – Eric Peters

Hawaii has forced on its citizens one of the lowest rates of gun ownership via some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country. Let’s see if the latest challenge brings the Aloha state just a bit closer to the broader gun freedoms most Americans enjoy as a right.” – Peter Van Buren

Desperation Row – “What a big game Volodymyr Zelensky talked before his latest little while in the Oval Office last Friday. The Ukrainian president (who is no longer legitimately the Ukrainian president) arrived for another summit with President Trump with a shopping list of air defense and weapons systems worth $90 billion. Yes, $90 billion. This compares with $128 billion the United States has already given Ukraine since the Russian intervention began in February 2022,  Zelensky said Ukraine would purchase all the new hardware in what he called “a mega deal.” What nonsense. Kiev is flat broke. How could the regime possibly pay for new weapons and matériel? Would Kiev write Washington a check out of funds Washington has previously sent?  But the hopelessly corrupt Zelensky had more than a 70 percent raise on his mind when he arrived in Washington. The master importunist also wanted an unstated number — let’s just say a lot — of Tomahawk missiles atop this. This is a crook with nerve: You have to give Volodymyr this much. No Tomahawks for Volod, then, at least none now. Trump made this clear before, during and after his time with the Ukrainian mooch.” – Patrick Lawrence

Volatility is normal – “Gold and silver have been marked down sharply over two days. If you have been shaken by the speed and magnitude, then that is the market makers’ objective. Whether market makers and bullion banks are acting in concert to bash the market matters not. The commencement of a market correction would have been spotted by all of them, and they would have withdrawn their bids and even sold some positions to help push prices lower. And as nervousness spreads on falling prices, buyers just stand back. Given the enormous rises in price since mid-August, sudden falls of 5—10% are normal in this context, but it is likely to have shaken out a few panicking sellers allowing the shorts to close some of their positions.” – Alasdair Macleod

Would Pioneer Tactics Still Work If SHTF Today? – “The pioneers crossed a continent with grit, simple tools, and hard limits. We have better gear and faster ways to move, but the land still plays by the same rules. Here is what carries over and what does not.” – Alec Deacon

Your Protein Powder Might Be Poisoning You – “For those living off-grid, homesteading, or simply striving for independence, the lesson is simple: don’t outsource your nutrition to corporations. When you grow, raise, or barter for your food, you know exactly what fuels your body. That’s freedom—nutritional and otherwise. So before you scoop that next serving of powder, ask yourself: do you really know what’s in it?” – Bill Heid

THE BIG PICTURE

Amazon Web Services Cloud that Stores the CIA’s Data Goes Down and Takes Much of the Internet Down as Well – “While AWS initially said the problem was related to a DNS (Domain Name System) issue that they had fixed, the outages have continued and AWS is now looking at other problems. What is rather amazing, so far, is that the corporate media, in unison, is either not even exploring the possibility that this is a cyberattack, or they are downplaying it, saying that it is “unlikely”, without giving any reason why they believe that. So I will speculate about the possibility that this is a cyberattack.” – Brian Shilhavy

The Day the Internet Went Dark – “Our ancestors had backup mules. We have Downdetector and Grok. Apparently Amazon Web Services—the invisible scaffolding propping up half the modern world with its cloud services—had had what tech experts sometimes refer to as a moment. Well into the afternoon, the internet itself seemed to forget how to internet. Snapchat snapped. Apple Music went mute. Netflix chilled—alone. Influencers were forced to wear ‘fits and eat meals nobody would ever see. Banks, airlines, and cryptocurrency exchanges froze like deer in Alexa’s headlights. It was the digital equivalent of the planet’s mom yanking the Wi-Fi router out of the wall and announcing, “It’s family time!” Tech analysts say this is what happens when the internet—originally designed to survive even if individual parts of it went down—now runs almost entirely through a few server farms the size of Rhode Island. It’s like wiring every traffic light, pacemaker, and espresso machine to a single power strip—and then hoping nobody powers the hair dryer and the International Space Station at the same time.” – Jenna McCarthy

Technocracy Expanding: BlackRock Buying Up Power Companies | Daily Pulse Ep 131 (VIDEO) – “BlackRock is buying up a whole host of power companies as the technocrats expand their AI control grid, USDA is dropping live-virus shedding ‘vaccines’ by aircraft across the U.S., and protests explode in the UK as the people resist Digital ID en masse.” – Maria Zeee

Japan Has a Flu Epidemic! Are You Ready for a BAD Flu Season? – “An early and severe flu epidemic in Japan is closing schools and straining hospitals. It may foreshadow what’s ahead for the U.S. Flu Shots?” – Joe Graedon  – YEP THAT TIME OF THE YEAR, TIME TO PUSH SOME MORE JABS. JUST CURIOUS, IS ANY FLU SEASON GOOD. YOU NEVER HEAR OF A GOOD FLU SEASON!!!!

What Are The Chances Of A Food Stamp Collapse In November? – “A classic saying among preparedness experts in the US is that America is capable of weathering many crises, but when the food stamps shut down all bets are off. In other words, when the free stuff army loses their handouts, that’s when all hell breaks loose. The US government spends over $100 billion on SNAP programs every year; the largest single food welfare project in the world. It’s difficult to predict what an end to SNAP might look like. It really depends on Democrats. A number of economists are warning that the nation’s largest “anti-hunger program” has a contingency fund of about $6 billion, but November benefits are expected to total around $8 billion. The USDA’s shutdown plan noted that funding is available in the event of a lapse, but if the current conditions hold, SNAP would ostensibly run out of cash in early November. ” – Tyler Durden

The Charlie Kirk Hysteria Is a Blueprint for Future Political Chaos – “Despite their stark differences, both partisan reactions stemmed from deeply held beliefs expressed with intense emotion. Many of these beliefs concerned the biggest threats facing the United States. The mainstream right-wing reaction generally reflected a narrative familiar to their worldview: the evil left killed Charlie Kirk. Meanwhile, left-wing indifference and celebration reflected their worldview: that Charlie Kirk was a Nazi, and MAGA is largely a collection of evil fascists. The reactions to the assassination have settled down—for now. But the collective reactivity it triggered is cause for both concern and curiosity and applies to far more than his murder.” – Carey Wedler

NEWS

The West Conquers Itself – ““Divide and rule” tactics are as old as human conflict. Instead of building consensus among the members of a tribe or nation, rulers exacerbate grievances that exist between social groups. By doing so effectively, a military or political leader with only minority support can maintain control over a much larger group of people who refuse to work together. Julius Caesar used this strategy to conquer Gaul. Modern Western politics is an endless “divide and rule” operation. Rarely do political leaders speak in terms that will unite strong majorities of their peoples. “‘ – J.B. Shurk

American Imperialism Explodes again as History Starts to Rhyme in South America – “The president even placed himself as a king inside a fighter jet to make it clear where he is headed, after also posting something like 90,000 more years of Trump!” – David Haggith

Will Trump Quit Chasing Optics—In Favor of Substance? – “As readers know, I’m no fan of Trump—but I need to follow the facts. Though I plan to eviscerate him over Thomas Massie and the murder of untold women and children, and, being nothing be a pirate/murderer of Venezuelan fishermen, Trump may yet pull us back from nuclear war. Historically, Obama (as much as I detest the man), corrected Anthony Blinkin (who was part of his entourage), to desist with the notion that given the right weapons, Ukraine was capable of defeating Russia. Obama was intelligent enough to see a fact. Then, Blinkin became the SEC/State under Biden and he shifted back to his earlier notion that UKR could take on and defeat Russia. Sleepy Joe bought into that notion.” -Erik @ neverhadaboss.com

Trump’s White House Demolition Is the Perfect Symbol of His Presidency – “On Monday, construction crews began tearing into the East Wing of the White House. The demolition marked the start of President Donald Trump’s long-promised “State Ballroom” — a 90,000-square-foot addition he approved and announced without waiting for the usual review process. The federal commission that oversees major White House projects, the National Capital Planning Commission, had not yet signed off on the ballroom’s construction plans. In any other administration, this would be a scandal. In Trump’s case, it’s a governing principle.” – Colby Hall

How To Elect a Girlboss Governor – “Comrades: Democrat girlboss governors will destroy your state – unless you vote. On November 4, Virginia and New Jersey will elect new governors. Democrats Abigail Spanberger (VA) and Mikie Sherrill (NJ) are the frontrunners. They are manchurian candidate clones grown in the DNC.AWFL.PMC.NPC.AI lab. Both regurgitate the same Kamala-style word salads. Both platforms are copy pasta: orange man bad, abortions good, sanctuary state, climate hysteria, protect LGBTQ+ trans kids. Both pushed masks, school closures, and jab mandates during COVID.” – Yuri Bezmenov

Defending the National Guard – “The Guard Shouldn’t Be Used in Undeclared Foreign Wars. Nor Should It Be Subject to the Whims of a Vainglorious and Unstable President” – Bill Astore

You Are Being Lied To About ICE – “Under Obama, stories such as these were barely covered by the mainstream news. When ICE made mistakes under Obama, they were treated as just that, mistakes, not signs of malicious intent. Democrats might have grumbled now and again. But they never claimed Obama was terrorizing the country. Never said ICE was “invading” their communities. Never called it authoritarianism. So why are they – and their legions of mindless followers – doing so now? The one and only reason is that Trump – not Obama – is in the White House, and Democrats want to portray everything Trump does as a sign that he’s a scary authoritarian. Even the claim that there’s been a massive surge in deportations under Trump is wildly misleading, because the comparison is always to the Biden administration – which did nothing – not to Obama (who was once called the “deporter in chief”) or George W. Bush before him.” – I & I Editorial Board

How ‘Little Marco’ Became Trump’s Top Hawk on Latin America – “Trump has long flirted with toppling Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro, and he has effectively positioned Marco Rubio to do it.” – Kelley Beaucar Vlahos

John Bolton bombs himself in a blaze of poetic justice – “The man who was so eager to destroy whistleblowers faces prison for leaking classified intel” – Rachel Marsden

Black Fatigue in a Zionist World – “The monsters in our midst. Bluntly stated, those of us who aren’t “African-American” are saddled with a minority group that we cannot help but interact with at times. This group, although only about 12 percent of the population, is a very loud demographic, and their concerns and alleged mistreatment at the hands of the other 88 percent of the people is drummed into our heads continuously by what Donald Trump has christened the Fake News.” – Donald Jeffries

Can the Trump-Putin Meeting in Hungary Succeed? – “The meeting between Trump and Putin in Hungary, assuming the pre-meeting negotiations between the envoys of the two presidents get that far, is likely the last chance for peace instead of war. An agreement between the two presidents will require large adjustments in position for one or the other or both. Either Trump would have to understand and accept that the solution is to get NATO off of Russia’s border and agree to a mutual security agreement between Russia and the West, or Putin would have to give up his goal of a mutual security agreement that brings an end to hostility, sanctions, and ceaseless provocations of Russia.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Fuel shortages in Russia is the price Moscow pays to remain the world’s moral superpower – “It’s a well-known fact that Moscow has a moral duty to supply subsidized energy to countries openly hostile to Russia, so why are gasoline-starved Russians complaining?” – Edward Slavsquat / Riley Waggaman

Media Reveals Trump’s Private ‘Inversion’ of Ukraine War Beliefs – Simplicius

Merkel Is Half-Right & Half-Wrong About Who’s Responsible For The Ukrainian Conflict – “The US was most responsible for the Ukrainian Conflict by refusing to reach a compromise with Russia for defusing their security dilemma, but Germany deserves as much blame as Poland and the Baltic States, perhaps even more because it was the EU’s de facto leader at the time.” – Andrew Korybko

Gaza ceasefire is an illusion – starvation and killings still continuing – “Just how much of what we see in mainstream media about Gaza is the real story? Actually none of it is true as the bigger, darker game being played is all about preparing for a war with Iran.” – Martin Jay

Israel’s Untold Environmental Genocide – “On September 23rd, the UN published a little-noticed report highlighting a barely-acknowledged facet of the 21st century Holocaust in Gaza. Namely, the Zionist entity’s genocide is wreaking a devastating environmental toll not merely on occupied Palestine, but West Asia more widely – including Israel. The damage is incalculable, with air, food sources, soil, and water widely polluted, to a fatal extent” – Kit Klarenberg

ECONOMIC NEWS

The Great Global Melt Up is Not Over… Yet – “The Great Global Melt Up is taking a breather… but do NOT mistake this breather/ correction for the end. Globally, the world is awash is too much debt. The US has a Debt to GDP ratio of 120%. Europe is ~100%, though numerous large countries (France, Italy, Spain) are well over that. Japan has a Debt to GDP of 200%. And even China has a Debt to GDP ratio of 120% when you include local government debt that is typically kept off the national balance sheet calculations. Put simply, for 50+ years, ever since the world ended the Gold Standard, governments have engaged in a massive debt binge. And there is no way they can ever pay this back.” – Graham Summers, MBA

The Precious Metals Pullback is No Reason to Panic – “Friday’s pullback was expected after such a strong surge, but all signs point to the bull market remaining firmly intact with at least another decade to go.” – Jesse Colombo

Who’s Selling Today, and Selling What… Metal or Paper? Journalists won’t ask! – “Market analysts are searching for an explanation for today’s bombing of gold and silver prices. Unfortunately, this search will not extend to the connections between central banks, bullion banks, and their daily and usually surreptitious interventions in the markets, both buying and selling, to defend their currencies against market forces. But who knows and will report which entities were selling today, and exactly what they were selling — real metal or paper derivatives? What journalist will telephone a central bank or a bullion bank with an inconvenient question and report his inability to get an answer?” – Chris Powell

The Gold Mania Isn’t Over Yet (New Forecasts) – “Gold keeps breaking records – but the real story here is about more than price.” – Peter Reagan

The “Triumph of Big Government” Created the Current Sovereign Debt Crisis – “No one really believes developed nations’ governments will control their public finances, and constant tax hikes and excessive regulation have choked the productive economy. Employment is showing the negative effect of the “triumph of big government”. Bloating government spending may disguise GDP but does not create jobs.” – Daniel Lacalle

Instant Eggs: The Survival Protein They Don’t Want You to Have – ““Instant eggs” are just dehydrated or freeze-dried eggs that rehydrate with warm water — no fridge, no electricity, no expiration panic. The kind that can sit in your bug-out bag or off-grid pantry for years. But here’s the catch: most commercial “instant eggs” you find online are loaded with anti-caking agents, preservatives, and fillers. They taste like chalk mixed with regret — and you’ll be paying survival-brand prices for something that barely qualifies as food. Real instant eggs, the kind you make at home, don’t rely on artificial nonsense. They’re simply eggs — dried, stored, and ready.” – Ask A Prepper Staff

THE BIG PICTURE

The Idea of Protest, Petition, and Voting as an Answer to Tyranny Is Beyond Asinine! – “The absolute obtuse reactions to tyranny by the common hordes continues to astound me. The ‘thinking’ (abject ignorance) of the masses continues to concentrate on ‘solutions’ dependent on their master’s whim, as the collective intellect is in an advanced state of degeneration. For decades I have attempted to get across the point that one cannot gain freedom by petitioning the very government that caused the loss of freedom in the first place. Yes, I do understand that government is not in charge, but is the pawn of the real power behind the throne, but with that said, the true controllers, who are few in number, could not rule without the middleman of government.” – Gary D. Barnett

Forewarned – “I gotta say I am pretty sick and tired of being accused of being a negative thinker, or a fearmonger, or a doomsayer. I think I call it as I see it. And I believe there is a good reason for that. Of course, “as I see it” may be wrong—in fact, I suspect my observations and comments are often incorrect. Ironically, from what I have seen, my observations are often too positive! It doesn’t mean the agenda has backed off on its original plan of ultimate control and genocide, it just may be taking a bit more time with it—like deep sea fishing, giving it all a bit of slack to be sure the line doesn’t snap.” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP

How the UK and Canada Are Leading the West’s Descent into Digital Authoritarianism – ““Big Brother is watching you.” These chilling words from George Orwell’s dystopian masterpiece, 1984, no longer read as fiction but are becoming a bleak reality in the UK and Canada—where digital dystopian measures are unravelling the fabric of freedom in two of the West’s oldest democracies.” – Sonia Elijah

Magnesium & Atrial Fibrillation – “Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a relentless flutter where the heart skips its own rhythm, betraying the body’s quiet harmony. I have long championed magnesium as the unsung sovereign of cardiovascular calm, and science echoes this wisdom. Deficiency is a silent saboteur in AFib’s onset, while replenishment can steady the storm, slashing recurrence risks and easing the oxidative blaze that is often so much a part of AFib” – Dr. Sircus

Slouching Towards Peace – “Well, “No Kings” came and went. Inflatable animal costumes did a brisk business for one week. The old Boomers got a social space to act out their nostalgic re-visit to the Age of Aquarius. They resisted. . . something. (Mainly authority of any kind, a retarded adolescent fantasy.) And now it’s back to Rachel Maddow for further instructions. The Republic slogs on, albeit with a shut-down government. Did you forget about Ukraine? Yes, a war is still going on there and it’s a weeping lesion on Western Civ, possibly leading to fatal sepsis.” – James Howard Kunstler  – GOOD ONE FROM MR. KUNSTLER TODAY!!!!!

Will We See a New Era of Truly Popular Anti-Statism? – ““No Kings” may be the first time I can recall clapping for a bunch of entitled, Starbuck’s drinking, middle-aged lefties and global communist money launderers. Is our national conversation getting closer to real anti-authoritarianism, even anti-statism? If we rely on the No Kings crowd as an indicator, the answer is no. They demand more government, modern monetary theory at home and abroad, and the replacement of Trump with a President who won’t challenge the other two branches to do their jobs. Any protest against authoritarianism and the state must be welcomed, in the mode of Thomas Paine.” – Karen Kwiatkowski – I HAVE LINKED SEVERAL ARTICLES ON THIS PROTEST, REDICULOUS AS IT WAS. YET INDEED THEY DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO SO REGARDESS OF HOW REDICULOUS IT WAS!!

US Politics Is Just Nonstop Fake Revolutions Now – “They get everyone fighting a fake revolution so that nobody thinks about fighting a real one. Millions flooded the US streets for the “No Kings” protests over the weekend to oppose a monarchy which does not exist without making a single tangible demand. Power was not challenged in any meaningful way. The status quo wasn’t disrupted in the slightest. People held up some signs saying the president is orange and that if Kamala were president they would be at brunch, and then went home. The whole thing was just one big pep rally for the Democratic Party, designed to accomplish nothing beyond getting American liberals excited about the prospect of someday voting for Gavin Newsom. ” – Caitlin Johnstone

“No Kings”: No Violence, No Clue, No Point – “A Protest Without A Message Accomplishes Nothing. A Very Democrat Protest While corporate media has almost reflexively billed the protests as a display of deep dissatisfaction within the broad American electorate with the policies of President Trump, the protest event sizes themselves tell a much different tale. Even the protest locations illustrate that they were concentrated primarily in Democrat strongholds.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Who Buried the Investigation of Charlie Kirk’s Murder? – “It has been one month and 10 days since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, and we still know nothing factual about it. The information or disinformation that has come out is nonsensical.” – Paul Craig Roberts

The Enemy Within – “America’s Overseas Wars Have Come Home. The “enemy” is no longer some distant foe in a foreign land; it is “the enemy within.” For Donald Trump, that means the mythical “radical left,” a variation of the 1950s fantasy that a Communist was hiding under every bed. The irony, of course, is that the real danger then, as now, comes not from a phantom leftist menace but from a radical right-wing movement willing to strip Americans of their rights in the false name of security, safety, and patriotism.” – Bill Astore

Is This MAGA? Trump Wants Lindsey Graham Donor To Challenge ‘RINO’ Massie – Ever-determined to oust popular GOP Rep. Thomas Massie, President Trump has posted yet another anti-Massie rant on social media, trashing the libertarian-minded Kentuckian and urging failed state-level candidate Ed Gallrein to mount a midterm primary challenge”” – Tyler Durden

One in, One Out – Migrant Shuffling across the UK and France – “France’s Emmanuel Macron and the United Kingdom’s Keir Starmer implemented the “one in, one out” program that has become the most blatantly ridiculous migration plan in modern history. France will take in migrants who attempt to enter the UK from French waters. In turn, France will send back an equal number of migrants to the UK in an equal swap. How does this solve the migrant crisis? It doesn’t solve the crisis—these men are adamant on keeping the borders open.” – Martin Armstrong

Don Lemon Urges ‘Black and Brown’ Americans to Arm Themselves Against ICE – ‘When you have people knocking on your door and taking you away without due process as a citizen, isn’t that what the Second Amendment was written for? Disgraced former CNN host Don Lemon urged “black” and “brown” Americans on Wednesday to take up arms, warning they could be swept up in President Donald Trump’s ICE operations. He made the incendiary claim during a podcast interview with Wajahat Ali, citing the small number of cases involving U.S. citizens being briefly detained by ICE in cities like Chicago.’ – Luis Cornelio

The War on Drugs Is A Psyop For CIA Control – “When Trump claims he is spiking a War On Drugs, we have seen this stage plot unfold for decades. The end game is for America to become the Head of the Drug Cartel globally. Relieving competition of their lives, the fear of god is interred. Why? Because the money attached is in the realm of $700 billion to $1 trillion – annually. And money is Trump’s impetus in all things whether it be Gaza, Ukraine, Venezuela, Colombia, Qatar, or Saudi Arabia. His Love Language.” – Helena Glass

Washington is reaching its deadly endgame in Venezuela – “Trump’s plans are criminally transparent: they are quite simply a brazen effort to legitimize regime change with the ultimate goal of appropriating Venezuela’s petroleum resources. For those who think the ultimate goal of the Trump administration in this South American country is to crush the narcotics trade are in for a rude awakening.” – Robert Bridge

The Masks Have Come Off – “If you believe what is written on those hats worn in the Israeli Knesset – “Trump the Peace President” – you are deluded beyond hope. Halloween may be coming, but you don’t need a frightening mask to realize the horrors that confront us. Trump is the culmination of a long developing horror story. Unlike his predecessors who prepared the way for him and who generally wore traditionally allaying masks to hide their evil actions, he is the greatest blatant fraud to ever occupy the White House. He is a war monger, a genocidal killer, and an enemy of people home and abroad so obvious, so capricious, so erratic – a man of endless threats – that no one should be surprised to wake up one morning to news that might seem “shocking.” Everyone should expect surprises, not treats but tricks.” – Edward Curtin

Trump warned Zelensky that Putin could ‘destroy’ Ukraine if he wants in closed-door ‘shouting match’: report – “The three-hour sit-down — which came a day after Trump held a call with Putin — devolved into a “shouting match,” with Trump “cursing all the time,” people familiar with the matter told The Financial Times.” – Zoe Hussain

Why Russia gave Assad humanitarian asylum and not political asylum – “Political asylum implies recognition that Assad was overthrown or persecuted by his state — something Russia could never admit without contradicting its position that Assad is the legitimate president.  Humanitarian protection, on the other hand, carries no such recognition. It would simply reflect personal protection extended for humanitarian reasons (health, safety, etc.), not a political statement.” – Vanessa Beeley

Dramatically Reduced Christmas Spending, Soaring Defaults And Empty Shelves: 14 Signs That The Condition Of The U.S. Economy Is Worse Than You Think – Michael Snyder

Gold Fights Financial Control Grid (VIDEO) with Catherine Austin Fitts – “CAF has been pushing gold (and silver) as an investment for the past few years. The record high price of the yellow metal has proven her right. In order for the few to control and steal the assets of the many, they have to build what CAF calls a “financial control grid.” What can help common people fight the control grid being built in front of their eyes? Buy the oldest money on the planet. CAF says,” – Greg Hunter

THE END OF A MONETARY ERA: Gold & Silver Enter Acceleration Mode (VIDEO) – “Gold and silver have entered acceleration mode. With gold surging past $4,300 per ounce and silver trading at $54, early sell-offs are being swiftly absorbed – a clear sign of deep underlying strength. But the real story reaches far beyond daily price movements.” – Egon von Greyerz

Honest question: what did you get for $30+ trillion? – “So, on a hot August day in the summer of 1999– The Sixth Sense (“I see dead people”) was the #1 movie at the box office– the US Treasury Department issued a rather mundane statement that its “net market borrowing” for the July through September quarter that year was estimated at MINUS $11 billion. In other words, the Treasury Department was paying down a small portion of the US national debt. Fast forward 26 years and such a statement is almost unimaginable. In April 2025, for example, the Treasury Department estimated that it would borrow a whopping $547 billion in the July-September quarter this year. $547 billion is a ridiculous amount of money to borrow. And yet, barely three months later, they revised their estimate and said the US government would borrow $1.007 TRILLION for the July-September quarter. It’s a difference of 84%… in the wrong direction.” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

Stocks Are Always the Last Asset to “Get It” – “Stocks remain blissfully unaware of the problems in the debt/ credit markets. While stocks get most of the attention from the media due to their greater volatility (greater volatility means a greater likelihood of producing significant gains quickly), the reality is that stocks are in fact the junior-most asset class in terms of capital structure.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Forget the “Great Wealth Transfer”… This Is Much Worse – “When governments run out of money, they don’t tighten belts – they borrow and print. That’s called “debasement,” and it quietly drains value from every dollar we earn and save. Here’s how the “debasement trade” is changing the investing landscape… ” – Peter Reagan

London, India, and the Anatomy of a Silver Squeeze – “For the first time in history, India’s largest precious metals refiner ran out of silver.

90% of the Church Doesn’t Understand Who Our Enemy Is (VIDEO) – Ashley Hays  – VERY GOOD 3 1/2 MINUTE LISTEN!!!

Call To Faith, Call To Fellowship – “Popularity does not make my witness true. If I am genuinely inspired and moved by the Holy Spirit, my witness is true, and my words are true, even if nobody likes them. This much is certain: no one reaches any destination by straying from the path. The rewards of faith we are taught are great, but we cannot hope to gain those rewards if we abandon faith. Faith is hard, faith is a daily challenge, yet to give up on faith is to give up on the rewards for faith. Am I wrong for believing that faith will be rewarded? Scripture teaches that the rewards for faith are beyond measure. To reject the premise that faith is rewarded is to reject Scripture.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Slow Drift to New Norms – “The agenda moves so slowly that everything they are bucking for will eventually be fact, but no one will think it the least bit odd. It’s like a foxtail slowly digging its way under an unsuspecting dog’s skin, causing serious infection, with the poor animal having no clue it is even there. I actually do not think a person has to be acutely observant to notice; most people do not notice slow change because they have been successfully trained not to.

California’s Central Valley stretches 450 miles through the heart of the state. Drive down Interstate 5 and you’ll pass endless fields of lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, broccoli. This isn’t farmland. It’s a single point of failure disguised as pastoral abundance. Ninety-two percent of America’s broccoli grows here. Over half our vegetables. Three-quarters of our fruits and nuts. When you open your refrigerator on the East Coast, you’re looking at California’s dirt, California’s water, California’s vulnerability. The FBI knows it. Al Qaeda’s training manuals mentioned it. Federal reports spell it out in bureaucratic prose that somehow makes it worse: “U.S. agriculture is vulnerable to agroterrorism because of the relative ease with which highly contagious diseases can be introduced.” But here’s what keeps security analysts awake at night. You don’t even need to be sophisticated.” – The Wise Wolf

The New Mandarinate – “CCP influence in the UK. From 2006-2017 including when the WHO changed the definition of ‘pandemic’ and oversaw the swine flu episode, it was under the leadership of Margaret Chan, a Hong Kong born Canadian doctor. She was openly backed by Beijing and after 2006, the WHO began shifting closer to China’s interests. That change in tone set the stage for what followed. China later lobbied hard for the installation of Dr Tedros Ghebreyseus as the first Director General of the WHO with no medical qualification in 2017. In 2023, the WHO proposed a new Pandemic Treaty and amendments to the International Health Regulations. Although later watered down, these show an intent for the WHO having unprecedented power and it seems reasonable to be concerned that there will be mission creep over time. The machinery for control is now built. Any virus will be the least of our worries.” – Clare Craig

Pesticides Used Near Farm Communities Tied to Rare but Deadly Childhood Cancer + More – “The new study, published in the Environmental Research journal, found that pregnant women in California who lived near areas that were treated with insecticides — flonicamid, cypermethrin or permethrin — or a now-banned fungicide called benomyl were more likely to have babies that would suffer from neuroblastoma, a cancer of the nerve cells that is seldom diagnosed after the age of five.” – The Defender Staff

“Coup d’Flat”: Billionaire-Funded ‘No Kings’ Color-Revolution Turns Into White Liberal Boomer Parade As Dems Become National Laughingstock – “Can’t make this up, white liberal boomer “Grantifa” attended. The nation is waking up to the fact that dark-money NGO networks, including the Arabella Network, Soros Network, Gates Foundation, Ford Foundation, Tides Foundation, Rockefeller Network, Singham Network, and many others, are funneling millions of dollars into what investigative researchers Peter Schweizer and Seamus Bruner of the Government Accountability Institute call “Riot, Inc.” – the permanent protest industrial complex and the engine behind “No Kings 2.0″ partners and organizers.

Another Regime-Change War Is Coming – “Whether he has done so wittingly or unwittingly, President Trump has backed himself into a corner with respect to Venezuela.  Trump has now effectively committed himself to initiating a regime-change war against Venezuela. Everyone should now brace himself for what is coming — another in a long line of foreign regime-change undeclared wars of aggression in violation of the U.S. Constitution and the principles set forth at Nuremberg. After all, Trump knows that if he backs down now Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro will crow about how he forced the all-powerful ruler of the United States to back down and return his military forces to the United States. There is no way that Trump can now permit himself to go down that road. From his own personal perspective, he cannot be seen as being “weak.”” – Jacob G. Hornberger

After needling both sides with the Tomahoax scam, Trump expectedly revealed the farce by turning Zelensky’s triumphant White House homecoming into a humiliation ritual instead.” – Simplicius

The Great Gold Fever of the 2020s – ““The whole way I’m driving out, I’m thinking I’m going to pull out this freaking $100,000 nugget.” The remark was recently made by 50-year-old Mike Hewlett, a welder from California. With gold now over $4,300 per ounce, he’s traded his hobbies of snowboarding, skiing, and dirt biking, for prospecting. He’s hoping to make big bucks. In fact, Hewlett recently extracted a chunk of gold about half the size of his pinkie fingernail out of the dirt in the forested Mount Shasta area. “I was jumping all around like you see in cartoons and stuff,” he said. When he later weighed his find, he discovered it was worth $175. Like past gold rushes, the real path to making money comes from selling picks and shovels.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

Seems I’ve got to have a change of scene
Cause every night I have the strangest dream
Imprisoned by the way it couldn’t be
Left here on my own or so it seems
I’ve got to leave before I start to scream
But someone’s locked the door and took the key

Ya feelin’ alright?
I’m not feelin’ too good myself
Well, ya feelin’ Alright?
I’m not feelin’ too good myself

Well boy you sure took me for one big ride
And even now I sit and wonder why
That when I think of you I start to cry
I just can’t waste my time I must keep dry
Got to stop believin’ in all your lies
Cause there’s too much to do before I die

Ya feelin’ alright?
I’m not feelin’ too good myself
Well, ya feelin’ alright?
I’m not feelin’ too good myself

Don’t get too lost in all I say
Like the time I really felt that way
But that was then and now it’s today
Can’t get off yet and so I’m here to stay
Till’ someone comes along and takes my place
With a different name, yes, and a different face

Ya Feelin’ alright?
I’m not feelin’ too good myself
Well, ya feelin’ alright?
I’m not feelin’ too good myself

THE BIG PICTURE

Big Banks Prepare for Compliance Based Currency (VIDEO) – ” As Michael Rivero famously said, all wars are banker’s wars. The first Bank of the United States was chartered in 1791 and favored foreign stockholders over Americans. The charter ended in January of 1811, followed by the War of 1812, and the establishment of the Second Bank of the United States in 1816, which gave more power to the Bank of England. Andrew Jackson successfully killed the bank’s renewal and shortly after became the first U.S. president targeted for assassination. Laws were passed in the early 1860s for the U.S. government to issue its own currency in a value-based economy as opposed to the debt-based system imposed by central banks. In 1913, the tyrannical Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Income Tax was born. The two world wars brought Germany under the heel of the central banking cartel. Western banking institutions financed the Bolshevik Revolution. In 2000, Iraq stopped selling its oil in Federal Reserve notes. In 2003, Iraq was illegally invaded by the United States, and dollar-based oil sales were reinstated. In Libya, Muammar Gaddafi’s gold dinar currency was making the nation rich. In 2011, the US invaded and reverted Libya’s oil sales to dollars. Digital ID, social credit scores, and a carbon tax is what the bankers are up to now. And everything else is a distraction. ” – Greg Reese

A Constitutional Look at the United States – “We have hard times coming. Zionism, under fire, is making a last-ditch effort to take over the US. There were 50 news outlets until Clinton reduced that to 6. This last week Zionist oligarchs bought Paramount, 1 of the 6. TikTok is now under control of Israel (to quell criticism of Israel at Trump’s insistence). Sadly, American is being taken over. Do we support murder/theft/regime change/global intimidation as founding principles of our republic? If you, by necessity, support either of our political parties, I offer you my condolences.’ – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com

Where’s DOGE? – “Does anyone remember the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)? More finely, does this “department” even exist anymore? The silence ism as the saying goes, deafening. Elon Musk – the head of this department for a few months of show – has gone quietly into that good night, along with the dangled-for-the-dupes $5,000 “rebate” check Americans were led to believe they were going to get that would be financed by all the savings DOGE would realize. Does anyone remember? It is apparently easier to forget – like rape and other iterations of abuse. People put it out of their minds because dealing with it is too traumatic. Instead, Americans are getting $4,200 per ounce gold – which would be fine if Americans had any gold. Most do not. Instead, they are getting a slowly elaborating police state, with Trump as its jefe – decreeing the deployment of the military internally. Some of the dupes approve of this because they do not think “the troops” would ever be used against them. Israel is now first rather than America”‘ – Eric Peters

The BritCard Psyop: What Is True Digital ID in the UK? – “The proposed rollout of the so-called BritCard is a bait-and-switch psychological operation (psyop). The evident purpose is to frame the debate about digital ID in the UK by fundamentally misrepresenting what digital ID is. People often say “if you don’t have anything to hide what’s the problem?” There is no rational argument for allowing people you don’t know and have never met to have any power to control your life. The “nothing to hide” mantra is based on the historically illiterate assumption that you will never have anything to fear from authority. To offer this argument as a reason to adopt digital ID is so naive we might call it stupid.” – Iain Davis  – IAN HAS WRITTEN SEVERAL GOOD ARTICLES ABOUT THIS. SOME HAVE BEEN LINKED PREVIOUSLY.

No Kings Redux: Heavy Is the Head Obsessed With Imaginary Crowns – “Court jesters and drama queens. The wait is over. Time to break out the Trump baby balloons, grab a mask, pick a slogan, and think inside the box – the No Kings protests are back. Rehearse the script, cue the delusions, and prepare to spread the message: “America has no kings.” Wait, most people already know that. Why the fuss? It seems numerous Americans firmly believe President Donald Trump is an authoritarian leader on the brink of coronation and that parading the streets while holding signs and shouting Dr. Seuss–like slogans will stop his spurious fascism. Never mind that he won the popular vote in 2024 and was elected president.” – Corey Smith

The operation, marketed under the “No Kings” banner and portrayed publicly as a grassroots movement, in reality functions as a professionalized protest-industrial complex. Its composition includes a blend of paid activists, white boomers suffering from Stage 4 Trump Derangement Syndrome, and a smaller contingent of organic, unhinged leftists who recite MSNBC talking points by heart. ” – Tyler Durden  – TWO FROM TYLER!!!

Democrats Are Openly Committing Insurrection – “Why are they not arrested? we are witnessing the Democrat mayors and governors in open insurrection against the federal government’s attempts to deport illegals, immigrant-invaders that the Democrats intentionally imported into America by refusing to defend US borders. Democrat mayors and governors have encouraged violence against federal officials and passed state and local laws to prevent the enforcement of federal law. The Democrat judges, mayors, governors and city councils are openly in insurrection. The evidence comes out of their own mouths and is in their own actions. Why are these Democrat Insurrectionists not indicted? Why isn’t Trump at home dealing with America’s problems instead of abroad dealing with Israel’s? Why is President Trump evading the real issue? It is the Democrats who are in insurrection, not the illegal aliens.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Chaos and Disorder Prohibited by National Guard ( with VIDEO ) – “The party of chaos and disorder is furious that the National Guard has been restoring peace to US cities. Every metric has shown crime significantly plummeting in every area where the National Guard has been stationed. American citizens are safe; the military is protecting those abiding by the law. Yet, those like Obama are spinning the story to portray a ruthless dictator unleashing the military against their own people.” – Martin Armstrong

The American Brownshirts Are Here – “They Want to Overthrow the U.S. Government. ANTIFA and their supporters fancy themselves to be noble freedom fighters in the mold of Mahatma Gandhi, but their violent rhetoric and actions betray them. They are 2025 America’s version of Hitler’s Brownshirts. They protest not for peace and goodness, but for the advancement of criminality, chaos, and corruption.” – Jim McCraigh

Trump’s War Against ‘Left-leaning’ Groups Extends Further – “There are a number of indicators which lets one predict that the Trump administration, during the next election, will use government forces to severely attack and disrupt all opposition to it. Trump has send the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents into the cities to harass and arrest alleged illegal immigrants. Due cause is disregarded and the methods used by the agents are brutal. Trump has also sent National Guard troops into cities where, he claimed, riots were taking place. There were no riots or ‘terrorist incidents’ but the presence of troops is used to create a militarized atmosphere.” – Moon of Alabama

Hysterical claims about about disinformation by foreign agents serve as a justification for attempts to delegitimate democratic decision making.

On Friday Israel reportedly blew up a vehicle carrying a Palestinian family of eleven people, including seven children.

Their savings and income buy less than before simply because the federal government, through its inflationary policy, has debased the value of money. This is what has been occurring ever since the U.S. government converted to a paper-money standard during the President Franklin Roosevelt administration during the 1930s. Prior to that time — in fact, for more than 125 years prior to that time — the official money of the American people had been gold coins and silver coins.” – Jacob G. Hornberger

Insurrection Anyone? – “Tomorrow, Saturday, October 18, you might have heard, is this year’s culminating “No Kings” protest demo all over the land. Deep down, they don’t really know who to blame. Something has gone wrong in this country. But their placards said “Resist.” Resist what? We asked. Trump, of course. Trump, Trump, Trump, we go a’marchin’. He’s Stealing our democracy! Meaning: Trump is the one responsible for our country’s decades-long descent into economic failure, political animus, and social degeneracy. You had to wonder who is paying them to yell an empty slogan that Nancy Pelosi has repeated a million times. We are going to find out. Don’t be surprised if tomorrow’s “No Kings” demo descends into violence, arson, and looting. The Democratic Party needs this to happen so it can provoke the president to invoke the Insurrection Act, so they can label him “Hitler” again. It is another absolutely in-your-face move. It can’t be hard at all to discover who has been paying for this Resistance uprising that includes the “No Kings” demos. It is relatively easy to track the money trails from one bank to another, or many banks to many others, and to see which NGOs are sending all the dough. . . and then who among the operational units are receiving it.” – James Howard Kunstler – VERY GOOD READ FROM MR.

Peter Thiel, the Antichrist, and the Peace President – “Trump loves to wait to make those clarifications in order to juice the press up with salacious news; but that doesn’t make for a peaceful and orderly country. It just adds chaos and disruption for the sake of drama. It turns the nation into endless reality TV.” – David Haggith

Barack Obama Foments Color Revolutions in Eastern Europe – “George Soros’ dog, Barack Obama, recently got in on the action, sponsoring through his “nonprofit” foundation several astroturfed champions of Democracy™ from Poland and Hungary to turn the screws on their respective regimes for the sake of mass migration and various neoliberal other social engineering projects. Precisely because they are white and hence inherently in need of eradication, and because these cultures are the most resistant to the forces of globalism that aim to turn the entire world into a singular corporate monoculture with zhe bugs as the sole protein source in the grocery store and digital currency the only means of payment.” – Ben Bartee

The New AIPAC Commercial is a Self-Inflicted Disaster for Zionism – ” here is the 1 minute and 34 seconds of the best Zionist propagandists have to offer, unedited by me: I’ll just say that AIPAC deserves an award for creating an ad that is guaranteed to alienate more Americans than anything else since Diet Coke.” – Ohio Barbarian

This is being widely reported in the media today, mostly in the Tech sector, although it is not headline news as it should be.” – Brian Shilhavy

Why War on Venezuela? – “Oil, maybe?” – Bill Astore  – OIL AND REGIME CHANGE, IT SURE ISN’T ABOUT NARCO TERRORISTS!!!

President Trump Authorizes CIA To Conduct Lethal Covert Action in Venezuela – “The Trump administration has authorized the CIA to take covert action inside Venezuela, including lethal operations, The New York Times reported on Wednesday, as the administration’s push toward regime change heats up. President Trump later confirmed that he authorized the covert action and said the US was considering attacks on Venezuelan territory. “We are certainly looking at land now, because we’ve got the sea very well under control,” he said.” – Dave DeCamp  – TYLER DURDEN REPORTED ON THIS YESTERDAY AS WELL!!!!

Milei or Bust? – “Trump’s multi-billion dollar ultimatum to Argentine voters…” – Joel Bowman

Personal Business: The Corrupt Argentina Bailout (VIDEO) – “While the US government cuts millions in food bank support, thousands are losing their jobs, and hundreds of thousands are furloughed with the possibility of no back pay, the US government sent a $20 billion bailout to Javier Milei’s Argentina… This bailout was more corrupt than we originally thought as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s own investment firm is making money on this bailout, as is a close friend of Bessent’s: billionaire hedge fund owner Rob Citrone.” – Wretched Watchmen  – VERY GOOD VIDEO, NOTHING TO SEE HERE, FOLKS. A MUST WATCH!!!!!

The Long Con: The US and Israel Are Again Setting The Table For Regime Change In Iran – “Recent revelations regarding a covert Israeli influence operation, seeking to help replace the current Iranian government with a corrupt Monarchy, have received almost no coverage in the Western media. This is because the story begins to unravel a web of media agencies and even terrorist networks (funded by the Israeli and Western tax payer) in a desperate attempt to stir civil war in Iran.” – Robert Inlakesh

The Next Putin-Trump Meeting Might Lead To Something Tangible This Time Around – “The geostrategic context of newfound pressure upon each, their increased bilateral tensions, and rising fears that false flag provocations in Europe could manipulate them into war with one another make it likely that their planned Budapest Summit will be more successful than the Anchorage one.” – Andrew Korybko

Dear Mr. President, Americans Don’t Care Who Owns Donetsk, So Why Risk WW3 By Sending Tomahawks? – Tyler Durden

ECONOMIC NEWS

U.S. runs another huge budget deficit in 2025 — and the national debt hits another record – “Interest payments on the U.S. debt are the second-largest part of government spending – Jeffry Bartash

Thar She Blows – “For any who haven’t noticed or don’t understand, control has been lost and like Moby Dick, the white whale, this is not an event, rather a mythos that goes down in the annuls of mankind, as an event, because it’s global, not seen before—not seen again? It may or may not be fortuitous for those holding gold, but for those without gold—it will be just what it is. The credit/debt cycle transferred wealth from citizens to elites, accelerating a dollar collapse, precipitating the ruination of the republic—and gave capitalism a black eye. What’s going to happen (amidst severe times), after the elite conglomerates finally lose control, is a return to small—local. After we get used of trading silver dimes for poultry, when Amazon no longer ships, then by necessity, we return to small business. If not, respect for human decency will be lost—forever? ” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com

Shit Is Breaking..And It Will Get Worse – “Literally one day after I reiterated my extremely bearish outlook on regional banks, they are getting crushed again. Meanwhile, gold goes parabolic” – . Quoth the Raven

Why Our Financial System will Soon Collapse Financial collapse will be an early symptom of physical collapse – Sarah Connor

Gold and silver — Now it’s FOMO – “The question facing dealers in precious metals is whether gold, silver, and PGMs have become Giffin goods. If so, further rises will create new demand with sellers retreating. Gold and silver have had a rip-roaring week with their prices rising almost vertically. In European morning trade, gold was $4340, up $320 from last Friday’s close. And silver at $54 was up nearly $4. Adding to the sense of a gathering run on bullion stocks, reports from around the world are of queues of retail buyers no longer worried by high prices but seeking to buy small bars and coin in both metals before prices go even higher.” – Alasdair Macleod  – BOTH ARE BEING SMACKED DOWN TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There Are Fewer, But MUCH Bigger Buyers, of Gold – Chris Powell

How the 1990’s Balanced the Budget – “What would it take to balance the budget. Does anything stop this train? As the government shutdown eases in to its third week, odds are rising that the deficit could actually shrink from last year. Perhaps by hundreds of billions if Republicans keep the shutdown going to the magic 61 days. That’s the good news. The bad news is even hundreds of billions barely makes a dent in a deficit that’s cruising at $2 trillion per year.” – Peter St Onge

 

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Long Term Food Storage in Basement (Part 2): Maintenance, Protection, and Prepper-Level Systems – “You’ve got the setup done and the shelves are built, the temperature’s stable, and the humidity’s under control. Your basement finally looks like the prepper stronghold you always envisioned. But here’s the truth: setting up long term food storage in basement is only half the battle. The other half is keeping it viable year after year. Food doesn’t just sit there unchanged, it quietly reacts to air, moisture, time, and neglect. Labels fade, cans rust, seals weaken, and pests test every corner for a way in.” – Rhonda Owen – PART 1 WAS LINKED YESTERDDAY!!

Why a Pellet Stove Could Be the Coziest Upgrade Your Home Ever Gets – “Instead of dealing with high utility bills or the constant work of a traditional wood stove, many homeowners are turning to pellet stoves as a smart, low-maintenance solution. So, let’s walk through what makes them special, how to choose the right model, and why this simple heating choice could make your winters easier, warmer, and more enjoyable for years to come.” – Bill Heid

How To Heat A Greenhouse for Free – “Cost-effective ways to heat a greenhouse for free.” – Lindsey Schiller

20 Dead Man’s Traps You Can Legally Build to Protect Your Home – “Let’s be honest: relying on a “call to 911” isn’t always going to cut it, especially when seconds count, and help is minutes (or more) away. Preppers know this. But here’s the catch: building a trap that could actually harm someone? That could land you behind bars faster than a home invasion ever could. So what do you do?” – Matt Wright
