THE BIG PICTURE

Judge, Jury, Executioner: When the Government Decides Who Lives or Dies – “What does it say about a government—and a political movement—that claims to value the unborn, but once you are born, that concern evaporates? When life upon birth becomes expendable, subject to force, punishment, neglect, and death so long as it serves “law and order,” “national security,” or political convenience—when you can be shot by the police state, executed by the police state, starved, surveilled, displaced, raided, abused, or discarded by the police state—and this is treated not as a moral failure but as policy and doctrine, then you’re not dealing with a government that is truly pro-life. It is pro-control.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

Finding Peace When Controlling Everything Fails – “Learning how to float through life isn’t all bad” – Kate Dreston.

Afraid of Everything – “As you probably know, it snowed. Cue the apocalyptics. Both before, during and after. The after being the worst because by then you know it wasn’t apocalyptic. But it seems there are lots of people who can’t accept that it wasn’t. Who wanted it to be apocalyptic. They are like the people you see still “masking” up – years after it became obvious that catching a cold wasn’t a death sentence. They seem to want it to be. At least, that’s how it looks. It was the kind of snow that would have caused maybe a two-hour delay (remember those?) back in the day, More finely, I miss the general expectation that you dealt with a little snow instead of panicking like a sheep in need of a shepherd. And yet, so many seem helpless. Seem to want to be helpless. Eager to stay home. A day will come when people will be told they have to stay home – because it might snow. It’s too risky – too unsafe! – for anyone to be out on the roads. Then it will be rain that keeps everyone off the roads. Maybe night-time, too. It’s dark, after all.” – Eric Peters  – FEAR LEADS TO CONTROL. THAT’S PART OF THE PLAN!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing new under the climate change sun – Tom Knighton

Geoengineering a Third World Storm – “The trains aren’t running on time. I have lived in the same county since I was three years old. But we never lost power in all those years, from snow or ice. The electricity might go off for a few hours in a thunderstorm, but that was the extent of it. Days, or incomprehensibly weeks without power was something no one even considered. Then, about 15 years ago, a thunderstorm they called a “Derecho” took out power here for a week. I had never heard of a Derecho before, and there hasn’t been one since. I don’t believe there is such a thing as a Derecho. But the public just nodded and lit more candles. And what about the tsunamis? When I first heard about the devastating tsunami in 2004, the word was foreign to me. I thought it had something to do with Pokemon. Apparently, tsunamis had been a thing throughout history. I half suspected they made up the word in 2004.We certainly seem to have had a lot of severe weather (usually breathlessly reported as “historic”) in recent years, which just coincidentally started once the first efforts into geoengineering the weather began. HAARP was a top secret facility in Alaska, devoted to “studying” the weather, but they wouldn’t let Jesse Ventura into the facility when he visited them for his Tru TV Conspiracy Theory show. Lyndon B. Johnson once said, “He who controls the weather, will control the world.” Now, let’s say hypothetically that our corrupt and incompetent leaders have found a way to manipulate the weather. ” – Donald Jeffries

ICE Making List of Anyone Who Films Them – “We have a nice little database and now you’re considered a domestic terrorist.” – Ken Klippenstein

The Complete Reckoning: 150+ Studies on the Devastating Harms of COVID Lockdown Policies – “They told us it was necessary. The evidence says they were wrong—and children paid the price.” – Justin Hart  – GREAT COMPILATION OF STUDIES, MANY WITH LINKS, FROM JUSTIN!!!

Email campaigns to public officials considered hate speech. A dangerous precedent for the dissent in Canada – Lawyer Lisa

 

 

NEWS

Trump: A beautiful armada is headed towards Iran, I hope they make a deal – Elad Benari  -FROM THE ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS. OF COURSE THEY ARE LOVING IT!!!

War Drums In Gulf: US Armada Arrives As Saudi Arabia, UAE Deny Airspace Access – Tyler Durden

Will he, won’t he ‘TACO’ on Iran? – “Is Trump getting the message that an Iran ‘win’ is not ‘Slam Dunk’? – in which case he might decide on a TACO, accompanied by bone-crushing economic threats to Iran. As so often these days, a decisive attack on Iran – comes down in the final analysis to Trump’s psychology, and his need to dominate the attention of everyone around him. He understands that for however much his maximalist pronouncements look — and are — crazy, they nonetheless do usually default to a ‘strong man image’. Trump’s career has been founded on the predicate that his base loves the ‘strong guy’ and any sign of weakness detracts from the illusion of strength. It is the thing that has generally worked for him. European élites however, find this difficult to digest – perhaps understandably – and slide into paroxysms of outrage.” – Alastair Crooke

Trump Wants To Win – But Iran Is No Easy Target – “Mr. Crazy just issued another of his by now typical threats: It is well know Iran does not want to have nuclear weapons. There is even a religious edict that says so. Iran had negotiated a nuclear deal with the U.S. that made sure that Iran would not have the means to build nuclear weapons. It was Trump who killed that deal during his first administration. We therefore know that anything nuclear is not the real issue that this is about. The issue is Iran’s general anti-colonial position and especially its steady resistance to the Zionist occupation of Palestine. Any attempt to change that long held ideological position of Iran by force is likely to fail.” – Moon of Alabama

Creative Energy Diplomacy Might Avert Another American Attack On Iran – “Redirecting Iran’s oil exports from China to India in exchange for partial US sanctions relief could avert another American attack by satisfying its goal of depriving China of some of the resources that it requires for maintaining its rapid superpower rise without risking a potentially disastrous regional war.” – Andrew Korybko

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Avalanches Build, Whirlwinds Form – “The Almighty American Dollar now constitutes only 40% of foreign currency reserves. Behold the power of a Mad Emperor to instill confidence in Empire: Secretary of Commerce, creature of George Soros, and Certified Vampire of the Empire Scott Bessent described sanctions as “economic statecraft, no shots fired.” Such refreshingly honest imperialism. Almost as honest as Kristi the Kourageous Dogslayer and Head DHS Bitch, who accused VA nurse Alex Pretti of “assaulting law enforcement officers” by stepping between them and a woman they had just violently shoved to the ground and pepper-sprayed. Plus, he was legally carrying a gun in a holster and foolishly left it there, so ICE had no choice but to shoot him, but only after they had gang-tackled, pepper-sprayed, and taken the gun away from him so they could do so safely. Remember, kids:. Safety First” – Ohio Barbarian  – GOOD RECAP FROM THE BARBARIAN AS USUAL!!!

US Democrats call for Trump to fire Homeland Security chief – “Lawmakers have threatened impeachment against Kristi Noem following two fatal shootings involving federal agents” – RT

Will Democrats help Trump defuse mass protests over ICE killings? – “The mass protests in Minneapolis against Trump’s immigration crackdown have the potential to spark a nationwide revolt.” – Finian Cunningham

SignalGate and the Myth of the Peaceful ICE Protester – “What does it mean to call someone a protester. The term carries moral weight. It suggests expressive conduct, a public statement, and a basic commitment to nonviolence. It implies distance from force, from coercion, and from direct interference with lawful state action. Based on what is now known, it is far more accurate to say that Alex Pretti functioned as an active participant in the ICE Watch insurgency in Minnesota. To see this clearly, it helps to distinguish protest from direct action. Protest expresses opposition. Direct action seeks to obstruct. Protest communicates. Direct action intervenes. Protest attempts to persuade an audience. Direct action attempts to impose costs. ICE Watch was not organized around persuasion. It was organized around disruption. Its purpose was to locate, track, and interfere with immigration enforcement operations in real time.” – Alexander Muse /Amuse on X – AS I POINTED OUT IN AN ARTICLE BY EL GATO ON MONDAY, DID THE MAN DESERVE TO GET KILLED. NOT REALLY, SHOULD HE HAVE BEEN THERE ARMED, NOT REALLY. SHOULD HE EVEN HAVE BEEN THERE AT ALL. AGAIN, NOT REALLY. UNFORTUNATELY THERE IS MUCH TRUTH IN BOTH SIDES OF THIS STORY AND LIKE MS. GOOD’S DEATH, IT ALL COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED!!!

The lawlessness of ICE is a betrayal of voters – “Americans want control of the borders and criminals deported, not border agents shooting citizens.” – Fraser Myers

Democrats Turn Minneapolis into Fort Sumter – “Just as it did one hundred and sixty-five years ago, the Democrat Party appears to be making war against the federal government. There are many signs that suggest Minneapolis is home to both a massive money laundering operation and a massive vote fraud scheme. Because the amount of financial fraud is so high, it is difficult to believe that Somali immigrants orchestrated this massive theft on their own. Minnesota and Minneapolis have government agencies whose sole function is to seek, police, and prevent exactly these kinds of taxpayer thefts. The idea that immigrants from across the world could arrive in Minnesota and figure out how to manipulate the existing bureaucracy to orchestrate large-scale fraud is unconvincing.” – J.B. Shurk |

America is losing allies by the droves. – Eric Zuesse

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Rage against the dying of the light – “The de-Dollarisation meme rolled on yesterday as the Bloomberg Dollar spot index sank to its lowest reading since February of 2022. The fall became precipitous after Donald Trump was given an opportunity by journalists to talk up the Dollar, but instead replied “no, I think it’s great” when asked whether he was concerned about its recent drop. It would seem that there is no rage against the dying of the strong Dollar from the President. Trump’s Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent had repeatedly assured financial markets last year that the administration still supports the strong Dollar policy. Trump himself has been a little more circumspect over the years, and implied yesterday that a weaker Dollar was good for US trade competitiveness. “Look at the business we are doing. The Dollar’s doing great.”” – Ben Picton

Trump is not worried by a weak dollar. Why the president and investors should be – Sarah Min

Fed Refuses to Cut, Shifts Hawkish in the Statement, with Two Dissenters – ““Everything comes in suggesting that this year starts off on a solid footing for growth”: Powell in the press conference.” – Wolf Richter

Fed Holds. Gold Breaks $5,300. Is the Dollar About to Crack? (VIDEO) – The Contrarian Capitalist

Amazon to Lay Off Another 16,000 Workers, Pinterest 700 Workers – “In AI-related moves, companies are stepping up job cuts.” – Mish

“The Bank Was Saved, and the People Were Ruined.” – “If the reader has not yet been squeezed to the point that his net worth (value of assets, minus debt) is under water, he would be well advised to consider means by which his liquid assets can be removed from the banking system, a system that, if history repeats, may soon take those remaining assets. Does this mean that the reader should run right down to the bank and withdraw his assets? Not necessarily. What it does mean is that it would be best to recognise that a clear pattern has existed for hundreds of years regarding boom-and-bust banking and the reader would be well-advised to ask himself some unpleasant questions. Here are a few:” – Jeff Thomas

12 Signposts That Indicate That A Monumental Economic Meltdown Is Now Upon Us – Michael Snyder

Gold Clears $5,000 as Economic Stress Builds – “Gold rocketed past $5,000, silver just crossed $100 and the headlines are grasping for explanations – from tariffs to politics. When the narratives stop making sense, it’s usually a sign of something deeper. This week, let’s look at the signals…” – Peter Reagan

Increasing Global Silver Shortage Drives Silver Price Surge While Financial Press Cries ‘Bubble!’ – “Bullion Banks Start To Whimper. A shortage of silver in all markets globally is driving silver’s price higher. Voracious metal demand in China and India, but also in the West, underpins silver’s price at these record levels. Overnight, silver’s p.m. price on Shanghai exchanges saw a surge to a record 15% above the London cash silver price.” – David Jensen

The Metal Nobody’s Heard Of (and the Pentagon Is Desperate For) – “While everyone watches gold and silver, there’s a supply crisis happening in plain sight.” – Nomi Prins

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

1, 2, 3, 4… You’re Ready to Cook in a Power Outage – “You’ll be happy (and relieved) to know that cooking “off-grid”, in your own kitchen is easier than you might think. Step One: The power bank solution. Step Two: The electric tea kettle” – Lisa Bedford

Use Cloches to Add Charm, History, and Functionality to Your Garden – “In the age of electric seed mats, overhead lights, and heated greenhouses, garden cloches have become a thing of the past. Once upon a time though, beautiful bell-shaped glass jars were in use in gardens around the world.” – Tasha Greer

Prepper Checklist for New Parents: What You Really Need – “Becoming a parent doesn’t erase your prepper instincts. It sharpens them, but it also exposes gaps you didn’t know were there. Sleep deprivation changes judgment because a baby changes timelines. Noise discipline, mobility, and even simple errands suddenly carry weight. This isn’t a feel-good checklist, it’s a hard reset for preppers who already know the basics and now have to protect someone who can’t adapt, improvise, or wait.” – Rhonda Owen

Mennonite vs Amish: What’s the Real Difference? – “Most people use “Mennonite” and “Amish” like they mean the same thing. They don’t. Yes, both groups share Anabaptist roots. Yes, both value faith, community, humility, and a simpler way of life. But when you look closer, the differences are real, practical, and surprisingly important, especially if you’re a prepper studying resilient communities. This guide breaks down Mennonite vs Amish in a clear, thorough way, without myths or Hollywood nonsense.” – Ask A Prepper Staff

Are You Emotionally Ready for the Coming Collapse? – Part 2 – “DIFFERING VIEWS OF THE RAPTURE” – Peter Cannon

THE BIG PICTURE

Self-Proclaimed Victims, Users, Weaklings, Wusses and Reality – “I have come to the conclusion that the brainwashing of this population, which has been accomplished much due to ‘public’ (government) schools, media, historical inaccuracy, (lies) and government propagandists, is now not able to be overcome. What that means of course, is that I have accepted that this population as it stands today, will not be able to prevail against the indoctrination, ignorance, and false beliefs, especially ideologically, that are fully imbedded into the psyche of the masses. ” – Gary D. Barnett

Bill Gates and the mark (VIDEO) – J.C.O.M.E.S. Its all about Jesus!  – INTERESTING SHORT VIDEO!!!

Trusted Abroad, Blocked at Home: Why Americans Need a Passport for Proven Medicines – Jeffrey A. Singer and Bautista Vivanco

Explosive Peer Reviewed Journal Article “The virus (and vaccine)……violation of the Biological Weapons Convention!” – “The paper states: The virus (and vaccine) contains evidence of manipulation, and those specific manipulations match the goals of four of seven categories of GOF experiments. Finally, those manipulations represent a violation of the Biological Weapons Convention.” – Dr. Joseph Sansone

The BIG, FAT Tuberculosis LIE: Black Magic Rituals, Vampires, Poison & Sherlock Holmes – “HBO Max can’t compete with this dose of true history… (and don’t ban my account, Substack! This info is from the CDC, historic newspaper clippings & books from the 1800s)” – Agent131711  – AGENT131711 GOES DEEP DIVING AGAIN. THIS TIME ON TB!!!!!

The $5 Cancer Treatment That Embarrassed Modern Medicine – “A Scientific and Spiritual Scandal in Modern Oncology” – Sayer Ji

CDC Director Susan Monarez Ousted In Vaccine Policy Clash With RFK Jr.; Four Top Officials Quit In Leadership Crisis – “Susan Monarez is not aligned with the President’s agenda of Making America Healthy Again” – Tyler Durden

Science-for-hire companies violate scientific norms, degrade public discourse, and facilitate the mass poisoning of society – “Apparently no actual scholars were willing to defend the mainstream position on autism so the NY Times turned to a Pharma mercenary” – Toby Rogers

NEWS 

The flower of Scotland and the horror of invasion and capture. – “In keeping with this week’s theme of immigration, power, and trust, let’s peruse the latest outrage reel from the UK. Here we have a grown man with an immigrant accent (sounds Pakistani or thereabouts to me but i could be wrong) following two young girls and badgering and filming them. One of the girls is armed. she’s not (at the start) threatening or seeking to threaten anyone, She’s trying to get away, trying to leave. But this guy is having none of it. he keeps coming and will not leave her alone. and he wants this documented and will not back off. and then the girl wound up arrested. He did the math correctly. and that means the calculus must change. Let’s be serious about the salients here: “Don’t touch my little sister, she’s f*cking 12!” is not exactly an extreme ask from a child to an adult male stranger. and somehow she’s the criminal in this episode?” – El Gato Malo

MN. Church shooter had two names; that’s all you need to know; there will be no further comments at this time – Jon Rappoport

Psaki, Minneapolis Mayor Eviscerated For MOCKING Prayers Following School Shooting – “While conservatives offered thoughts for those killed and injured, including two young children, leftists immediately jumped straight to their default reactions, politicising the matter and even despicably mocking those offering condolences in the form of prayer. Leading the pack was former Biden Press Secretary turned MSNBC shit-lib Jen Psaki who ranted on X about prayers being meaningless.” – Steve Watson

Which Democrat Will Merge Into the 2028 Sane Lane? – “Supposedly, the tiresome comedy stylings of Gavin Newsom – he’s the equivalent of a Wednesday night prop comic opener down at the Gooberville Giggle Works – have thrust him into the forefront of the Democrat race for the 2028 nomination. A lot of them are trying to crowd into the Fighter Lane. We need somebody who’s going to fight the perilous peril that is Donald Trump and his authoritarian authoritarianism that’s literally fascist Nazism! Of course, the fighting is entirely performance art. You’ve got Pete Buttigieg out there promising to fight. This Navy veteran – he’s all yours, swabbies! – looks less like a bruiser than someone you want to give a wedgie, and who would eagerly receive it. Illinois governor/behemoth JB Pritzker seeks to waddle into the fighter lane, too, though if he does, he’s going to have to wear a sign on his back reading “Wide Load.” Well, he does have weight on his potential opponents – he outweighs all of them put together – but the dude’s not going to have endurance for the long haul; he breaks a sweat resting. The Fighter Lane would be crowded just with JB alone, but with Gov. Hairstyle, Alfred McKins-E Neuman, Spartacus Booker, Big Chief Warren, and others potentially competing, the smart play would be to seek another lane. Call it the Sane Lane.” – Kurt Schlichter

America’s Death Cult Exposed – “Predators over victims… Here we are again in the aftermath of yet another transgender school shooting, this time the target was the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. But this time it is different… the Democrats have exposed themselves as the party of unbridled evil. Yesterday and today, they have responded to the school shooting by demeaning and mocking those Christians who pray during times of trouble… even when their children are the victims of violent attack. At the same time, others, including Mayor Frey of Minneapolis, immediately claimed the “trans community” is far more righteous than Christians. Really?” – Jim McCraigh  – WELL SAID BY JIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump’s Justice Department Abets Israeli Pedophile Spy – “Only super-duped MAGA supporters and Israel idol-worshipping evangelicals refuse to entertain the notion that Donald Trump is being bribed by Israel over damning evidence that is buried deep within the Epstein files. But then, even if this evidence is revealed, it won’t matter to the Trump toadies in these groups. And, again, it won’t matter to Trump’s base if there is evidence of Trump’s involvement in Epstein’s pedophile activities. They already know that Trump is a moral degenerate. They already know he is a product of the criminal underworld. And it doesn’t matter to them. Trump can trample the Constitution with impunity. He can maintain the supply of weapons to Ukraine. He can continue America’s sponsorship of the genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza and the West Bank. He can continue America’s proxy wars in Lebanon and Syria and expand America’s hot wars to Yemen and Iran. All of this is done with complete impunity. His base doesn’t care.” – Chuck Baldwin

The NYT Wants “Proof” Of Lisa Cook’s Guilt? Here It Is. – “What The New York Times Won’t Acknowledge About Lisa Cook” – Peter Nayland Kust

For Some, Russiagate Never Ended – “Longtime Trump adviser Michael Caputo’s life was upended by Russiagate. Under Biden, he and others were spied on a second time. On the scandal’s unreported second chapter” – Matt Taibbi

WEF Whistleblower COMPLETELY Dismantles Carney’s FAKE Promises – Exposes WHY He FLED To Europe (VIDEO) – Northern Perspective

Fifty shades of the EU: Queen Ursula should start charging to watch her kinky dance with Trump – “Is the US president having his way with the EU, or just getting more “solidarity” smoke and mirrors?” – Rachel Marsden

The Trump Administration’s Famine Denial – “The U.S. position is unsurprising, but it is despicable” – Daniel Larison.

Christian Priests and Nuns Refuse To Leave Gaza City Despite Israel’s Planned Offensive – “Hundreds of civilians are sheltering at the two churches in Gaza City” – Dave DeCamp

How US-Israeli Regime Change in Iran Failed – “In sum, the Zionist entity is a beast encircled, reduced to lashing out through desperation, not strength. Its ability to flail against not merely Iran, but the wider Axis of Resistance, without further endangering its already precarious position is extremely limited, if not non-existent. Wholly dependent on foreign support at a time polls indicate it’s the most hated ‘country’ on Earth,” – Kit Klarenberg

Iran and World War 3 – “In the east, the Roman Empire generally ended where the Persian Empire began. Unlike most other nation states in the Middle East, Iran (known as Persia before 1935) is not an artificial construct. By race, religion, and social history, it is a nation. Iran is Russia and China’s key ally in the Middle East, pushing back against the influence of the US and its allies. The US, Israel, and their allies have not been successful in changing the behavior of the Iranian government. They’ve tried pretty much everything short of a full-scale invasion and using nuclear weapons. In short, the US and its allies have few cards left to play against Iran.” – Nick Giambruno  – ALSO SEE NICK’S ARTICLE LINKED ON 08/20/25 ABOUT THE MIDDLE EAST. BOTH ARE GOOD READS!!!

SITREP 8/28/25: Trump Scoffs at Russian Interests in Gross Display of Hubris – “Trump is asked on his opinion regarding Lavrov’s statement that Russia could not sign a deal with an illegitimate leader like Zelensky. Trump responds by saying such statements are irrelevant because “everyone is just posturing”, and “it’s all bullshit”. Trump could not be more wrong that a civilizational state like Russia is merely “posturing” about its existential interests, and understanding this key divergence is essential for grasping the far larger implications of the ideological rift between West and East.” – Simplicius

ECONOMIC NEWS 

Trump’s Plan to Control Businesses and Ditch the Dollar – “More publications are chiming in about Trump’s rapacious reach for ownership of major US corporations, and we get a glimpse of his plans to kill the dollar by seizing control of the Fed.” – David Haggith

Trump Punishes India with 50 Percent Tariffs for Buying Russian Oil – “Trump’s 50 percent tariffs on India start today.” – Mish

AI: False Savior of a Hollowed-Out Economy – “The real story of the US economy isn’t about AI, it’s about an economy that’s run out of rope. AI is being hyped not just by promoters reaping billions of dollars in stock market gains, it’s being hyped by the entire status quo because it’s understood to be the last chance of saving an economy doomed by the consequences of decades of artifice.” – Charles Hugh Smith

Powell Scraps “Make-Up” Inflation Playbook in Jackson Hole – “Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell used his Jackson Hole podium on August 22 to declare the end of the central bank’s three-year experiment with “flexible average-inflation targeting.” In its place, the Fed is reverting to a straight-forward but “flexible” 2 percent target, a move that comes as economic momentum cools and goods prices perk up. History suggests that once tariffs, wage rigidity, and political pressure take hold, consumer price increases are rarely one-time affairs, and with political pressure rising against the Fed, it’s not obvious this strategy will be pursued for long.” – Peter Schiff

Into Month End for Gold and Silver Prices – Craig Hemke

UBS Upgrades Gold Price Targets; Recommends Buying Gold Now – “UBS calls gold a “must-have asset” against policy risk, and they aren’t alone – China’s insurance industry is now required to own as a safety net. The real question: What does this tell us about the fragility of the global financial system?” – Peter Reagan

S&P Hits Record As Economy Freefalls Faster. short (VIDEO) – Gregory Mannarino  – ONE MINUTE RECAP OF THE MARKET FROM GREG. KIND OF SAD AS YOU CAN GET THIS INFO ANYWHERE.

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

The Importance of Doing the Best YOU Can – “There are a lot of things in the prepping world that seem out of reach for the average Jack or Jill. We all have unique circumstances, benefits, and limitations. It’s up to us to find a way to do the very best we can in those circumstances. And that is unique to every single one of us.” – Daisy Luther

18 Gardening Methods to Choose From to Maximize Your Space – “Whether you’re a beginner or seeking different styles to maximize food production, understanding your options is crucial. Gardening styles and techniques evolve, nowadays you have options that require small spaces, and you can combine multiple forms for different types of plants.” – Jennifer Poindexter

Cost-Effective Mulching With Leaves – “Utilize fallen leaves for a low-cost mulch alternative.” – Will Bonsal

Antiseptics, Pt. 2: Natural Options – “As mentioned in Part 1, many people confuse antiseptics, disinfectants, and antibiotics.” – Joseph Alton, M.D.  – PART ONE WAS LINKED A FEW DAYS AGO!!!

Stop Ignoring These Long-Lasting Protein Sources – “Protein is an essential survival fuel when massive supply chain problems, natural disasters, and other SHTF scenarios strike. Protein keeps your muscles strong, your mind sharp, and your immune system ready, and ensures that young people are growing properly. Stocking shelf-stable sources now, during normal times, can mean the difference between thriving and wasting away when SHTF.” – Eric Beuning

THE BIG PICTURE

“Digital Wearables” – A key cog in the social credit machine? – “But are “wearables” as benign as they seem? Of course not. They are a biometric tracking device. Essentially, in the name of monitoring your health you’ll be monitoring your self, and uploading all that data to the cloud. Where you go, how you get there, how fast you travel. What you eat and when. When you sleep and for how long. Your blood sugar and heart rate and body fat percentage. Not to mention biometrics. All this data will be collected. And will it be private? Of course not.” – Kit Knightly – AND THIS IS WHAT BOBBY WANTS FOR EVERYONE, HMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bayer’s Colonial Fantasy: When Empire Wears a Lab Coat – “Bayer doesn’t sell seeds. It sells obedience. Wrapped in the language of innovation, Bayer’s model is a closed loop: proprietary seeds that require proprietary herbicides, bundled with digital advisories and ‘climate-smart’ branding. It’s not a product—it’s a protocol. And once adopted, it’s hard to leave.” – Colin Todhunter  – HOW BAYER IS CONTROLLING BIG AG!!!!!!!!!

Three persistent problems in the pandemic narrative nobody wants to address – “No real pushback, just capitulation disguised as dissent. Yesterday Robert Malone (now an ACIP member) asked a CDC representative about the sudden and prolonged “disappearance” of influenza. We do not for one moment think that Dr Malone is anything other than fully committed to preserving the need for “pandemic preparedness”, and view his asking of the question entirely “scripted” and “theatrical”.” – Jonathan Engler, Jessica Hockett and Martin Neil

⚡DISABLING AN EMF TOWER⚡(VIDEO) – “Gary Waterman, ex UK Police Officer, has published a video of his direct action against 5G.” – Frances Leader

Pediatricians and the CDC Love To Poison Children with Mercury – Thimerosal in Vaccines – “The amount of ethylmercury in a multidose flu shot is 25,000 times the EPA’s safety level for drinking water. Federal and state laws provide that whenever expired thimerosal vaccines are disposed of, they constitute hazardous waste. Between conception and age 18, a compliant American child today could get a cumulative load of as much as 500 mcg of ethylmercury from multidose flu shots—nearly double what they were once getting from all the childhood vaccines put together.” – Dr. Sircus

Brazil Lab Engineers Never-Before-Seen H5 Bird Flu Pathogens Using Reverse Genetics: Journal ‘Vaccines’ – “New influenza strains that never existed in nature were built from scratch.” – Jon Fleetwood

Do glyphosate-based herbicides cause cancer, liver disease and metabolic dysfunction? Part 1. – “Despite accumulated data, the evidence of causality remains inconclusive. I wanted to look into the issue of pesticides and herbicides, specifically much discussed glyphosate as a possible major cause of chronic and terminal illness. I would like to state upfront, that I am in no way advocating for glyphosate nor defending Monsanto. In general, these chemicals are dangerous and their use should be minimized. Use of less environmentally harmful methods of weed and insect control should be promoted. The objective of this article is to look at the balance of evidence for CAUSALITY of chronic illness by glyphosate.” – Sasha Latypova.

CDC vaccine advisers recommend Merck’s RSV therapy for TINY BEEEEBBIIEEESSS – Sage Hana

How To Go “Independent” on Substack – “A closer look at the Top 10 bestsellers of major Substack categories and whether they are truly independent. Comrades: How “independent” are the top writers on Substack? Substack deserves praise for protecting free speech. Its team has stood strong at critical junctures while scaling a great platform. Writers covering every conceivable topic are flourishing here. We have only captured a small portion of the total addressable market.” – Yuri Bezmenov

There’s nothing horrifying about a heatwave – “Why is the left treating the nice summer weather as a sign of impending doom?” – Julie Burchill

Puffing Poison: Is Vaping the New Recreational Chemotherapy? – “Think you’re quitting smoking? You might be trading one carcinogen for dozens more—with e-cigs delivering a slow-drip dose of metal-laced, hormone-warping toxins.” – Sayer Ji

 

 

 

NEWS 

Why the media is becoming absurd – “Irrelevance begets desperate bids for attention. It seems as though every time one turns around some new and obstreperous take emerges from the rage mills of media.” – El Gato Malo

Chaos Creeps in on Little Cat’s Feet – “The Democratic Party put another bullet in its head this week with the election of the charming, affable jihadi communist Zohran Mamdani. Is “communist” too harsh a label? It’s a wonder of our time (and its playful zeitgeist) that New Yorkers might choose a mayor even worse than the brain-dead colossus, Bill de Blasio, but there it is, in plain sight for all to behold. The Big Apple and its various services will now go from their currently merely broke-ass condition, to the complete collapse of infrastructure, transit, housing, revenue, business, and public safety, in other words, to true Third World authenticity! Serious people, who run viable businesses, support families, and pay whopping taxes, are in a panic, all a’chatter about moving elsewhere.” – James Howard Kunstler

ZMan Dead? – Concerned Citizen  – HAVE LINKED MANY ARTICLES BY THE Z MAN. WILL BE A LOSS IF TRUE!! 

Iran: Necessity and Opportunity – “And why timing matters. In any event, consider that the Israeli operation was less about imminence and more about opportunity and necessity. Necessity, for Israel, was non-negotiable. A nuclear Iran is seen as a threat to survival. As to timing, Israel had a small window. Iran’s air defenses (and its drone and ballistic missile storage and production sites) were already weak from Israel’s October 2024 strikes, and “Iran would have rebuilt its air defenses by the latter half of the year.” With that in mind, the decision to strike was reached, and they made a list of political, scientific, and military targets.” – Techno Fog

Donald Trump Has Joined Joe Biden In The Ranks Of War Criminals – “Iran is the kid on the playground that isn’t intimidated by the bully and is willing—and able—to fight back. President Donald Trump not only attacked a sovereign foreign state (Iran) without provocation, without congressional approval and without constitutional or moral justification,…  As I have documented in past columns, Donald Trump likes to portray himself as an emperor, and now he is acting like one. Trump has now proven to the world that 1) He was a bald-faced liar when he told the American people he wanted to be a peace president, 2) He remains a bald-faced liar by attacking a country while his administration was in the process of negotiating a peace settlement with that nation, and 3) He is nothing more than a paid lackey of the Zionist government in Tel Aviv and the Israel lobby. Virtually everything America does in the Middle East is at the behest of Israel. This U.S. attack against Iran was no different.” – Chuck Baldwin

Tammy Bruce talks Judaism, Trump, & Israel with i24NEWS (VIDEO) – i24NEWS English  – FROM A MONTH AGO. US STATE DEPT. SPOKEPERSON ,TAMMY BRUCE SAYS IT ALL AT THE 5;47 MARK – “THE GREATEST COUNTRY ON EARTH… NEXT TO ISRAEL”.  WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED TO KNOW, IT’S ALL ABOUT MIGA!!!!!

Trump Bombing Iran Under a Directive Initiated by Obama – “The focus of Trump’s ire is the media, any media which does not parrot his version of ‘complete destruction’ of all nuclear sites in Iran. This ire is now focusing on the demand that anyone who does not agree with the parroting to be fired. Which of course, only adds to the flame and keeps the story on fire! The Truth is we can’t be certain one way or other, although there is unity in stating there was no fallout or radiation aftermath. Somewhat of an impossibility… The installations may be damaged, but the uranium was moved.” – Helena Glass

Trump Desperately Trying to Change the Narrative on Iran – CIA Intervenes to Control Mockingbird U.S. Media – “President Donald Trump called on CNN to fire the lead reporter of the “Exclusive” article published earlier this week that revealed an alleged leaked Pentagon study stating that Iran’s nuclear sites were not completely destroyed. Since this is such an obvious violation of Freedom of the Press that is enshrined in the First Amendment, I was curious to see how the U.S. Corporate media was reporting on this. A new billboard appeared almost immediately after the current ceasefire between Israel and Iran in Tel Aviv. I don’t know how long it takes to create and mount a billboard like this, but the fact that this happened almost immediately after the ceasefire, suggests the bombing on Iran’s nuclear sites was mostly just symbolic to provide a way for the U.S. and Israel to “save face”. Realizing that Israel had to end the war as society was rapidly falling apart in Israel, this was obviously Plan B, which was for Trump to try and “make a deal” with other Middle Eastern Countries with Trump’s “Abraham Accords”.” – Brian Shilhavy

Donald Trump, Insulter-in-Chief – “Teenage Boys Playing “Risk” Lead America!” – Bill Astore  – GOOD ONE FROM BILL!!

US “Allies” Reject Defense Spending – “Countries from Spain to Japan are pushing back against US demands to spend more on their defense. Perhaps gambling America’s mighty military industrial complex will keep siphoning hundreds of billions from the American people so Europe and Asia don’t have to pay for — or die in — their wars.” – Peter St Onge

Karmelo Anthony reportedly files court paperwork for a public defender – “Now, as Anthony is now officially facing a murder charge after being indicted by a grand jury earlier this week, he’s reportedly filed “indigent” paperwork to obtain a public defender, a formal plea for financial assistance that claims poverty and financial destitution, after raising more than half a million dollars less than two months ago:” – Olivia Murray  – GEE, ALL THOSE SUCKERS SENDING MONEY TO HELP THE DEFENSE OF A MURDERER. WONDER WHAT HIS FAMILY SPENT IT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Getting what they wanted, good and hard – “There’s a saying that people get the government they deserve. It’s not universally true, but it mostly is. Sometimes, they get it good and hard. In New York City, they’ve had some…interesting politics, lately. AOC is an avowed socialist and an obvious idiot, and yet they keep sending her to Congress, just as one example. Another is the results of the Democratic primary earlier this week. Communist Zohran Mamdani beat disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the primary, which really could have been for a lot of reasons other than his politics, but now he’ll take on incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, who is running as an independent.” – Tom Knighton

The New Slavery-Same As The Old – ” It’s the forced capitulation of European ideals of freedom, beginning with speech, which allows for targeted imprisonment of those who voice opposition. Nothing is more dangerous to peace than this.” – T.L. Davis

The US Is Reluctant To Drop Its “Economic Bunker Buster” On China, India, & Russia – “It’s unrealistic to expect the US to maintain 500% tariffs on China and India for their purchase of Russian oil, which would also ruin its trade talks with them and derail the Ukrainian peace process.” – Andrew Korybko

(VIDEO) – “We found out yesterday, I want you to just settle in for a moment here, the US dollar just had its worst start to a year since 1973. That’s over half a century over, half a century.. Why people are not taking to the streets here when they hear the president of the United States broadcast to the world that the dollar is not weak enough already, uh, and that means of course the cost of living is going to skyrocket on the back of that. Well of course it’s a mechanism here to prop up the stock market. A weaker dollar is massively bullish for the stock market ” – Gregory Mannarino  – ANOTHER GOOD LISTEN FROM GREG TODAY!!!!!!!!!

Both countries utilize the New York Federal Reserve Bank, storing more than a third of their gold reserves in the bank’s Manhattan vaults.” – Mike Maharrey  – COUNTRIES WANT THEIR GOLD.

The Fed Is Sabotaging the Economy—And Trump Is Their Scapegoat, Economist Warns (VIDEO) – “Economist Dr. Kirk Elliott sees a rare window—the investment opportunity of a lifetime before the next crisis hits. And it’s closing fast. We’re burning through silver faster than it can be replaced—and time is running out. AI, defense, and energy giants are driving demand through the roof. But silver isn’t like copper or aluminum—you can’t just recycle it. It’s essential to missiles, solar panels, and nuclear reactors. Once it’s used, it’s gone for good. Economist Dr. Kirk Elliott says silver could spike from $35 to $100 an ounce this year—and that might just be the beginning. Meanwhile, the Fed is” – Maria Zeee / Daily Pulse

Designing a Food Forest: Everything You Need to Know to Get Started – “So, what is a food forest? A food forest, also known as a garden forest or Agroforestry, involves planting perennial edible plants in a manner that mimics nature. They are typically three-dimensional in design and include eight layers (the overstory, the understory, the shrub layer, the herbaceous layer, the root layer, the ground cover layer, the vine layer, and the mycelial layer).” – Carolyn and Josh Thomas

Why You Should Never Drink Tap Water Again – “You might think your tap water is safe just because it looks clean. But these days, “clean” doesn’t really mean safe. With aging infrastructure, chemical pollution, and little accountability, America’s water systems are quietly falling apart. You never know what might be flowing through your pipes. ” – Caleb Cartwright

Build a DIY Pocket Fishing Kit -“When building a bug out bag, you don’t want to just pack food. You also want to pack things you can use to acquire food. For example, a fishing kit. But obviously you can’t pack a rod and reel and tackle box in your bug out bag. Instead, you should pack a mini fishing kit.” – Alan Urban

THE BIG PICTURE

MAHA, Wearables and the War for Embodied Consciousness – “How “Health Freedom” Now Embraces Digital Surveillance” – Joshua Stylman  – FREEDOM AND SURVEILLANCE. CAN IT BE ANY MORE CONTRADICTORY. MAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Religions of the World, Unite! UN Wants to Hijack Your Church – “Global leaders are working to create one big, global green religion, leading to the destruction of Judeo-Christianity. • The new world religion would raise Mother Earth to the level of a deity. • This movement claims all religions are equal, though some will be more equal than others. • It would jettison the old Thou Shalt Nots.” – .Alex Newman

History repeating: the new company town – “What happens when billionaires own the zip code, and everything within it? Part two in our series on the future of living in America. During the Industrial Revolution, company towns sprang up across the United States like dandelions after a downpour. Built by steel tycoons, coal barons, and chocolate magnates, these places were designed to allow workers to live close to where they work — keeping them away from the denigrating poverty of inner cities, and keeping them under close watch. What they all had in common was control. Workers lived where their bosses told them, bought what their bosses sold them, and behaved how their bosses expected. The message was clear: if you want a paycheck, you play by the rules. Today’s version comes with better marketing. The factory bells have been replaced with free yoga, wellness apps and solar panels.” – Collapse Life

Execs from Palantir, Meta, OpenAI being brought into U.S. Army as colonels to turbocharge military’s use of drone warfare, robot soldiers, other high-tech killing machines – “Army says it’s part of a plan to tap commercial technology resources that will increase ‘efficiencies’ on the battlefields (i.e. killing fields) of the future.” – Leo Hohmann

Natural Cardiology: Unclogging Your Arteries Without Surgery (VIDEO) – Dr. Sircus

NEWS 

The Coming Police State – “We have seen this before. ​A foreign entity attacks American persons or property and the government warns that its sleeper cells have infiltrated the United States and it is somehow necessary to expand the powers of the government and shrink protections for civil liberties — and this shrinkage will somehow keep us all safe. ​The premise of this deeply flawed argument is that less liberty produces more safety. That premise is historically and morally erroneous. Even if we had cops watching us on every street corner or FBI agents virtually in every home, who will keep us safe from them? And who would want to live, who could be private and free, in such an environment?” – Judege Andrew P. Napolitano

Feminists Are Begging For Men To Come Back But Still Blame Them For Everything – “One rule has remained true for generations when it comes to the division between the sexes: Men are held accountable for everything, women accept accountability for nothing. Obviously, there’s going to be exceptions to the rule, but the majority of the time it is true that modern western women have a serious problem taking responsibility when things go wrong. They have been taught from a very early age that they are victims: Victims of men, victims of society, victims of “patriarchy”, victims of religion, victims of biology, victims of circumstance, etc. The feminist movement is built entirely around the notion that women can weaponize their victimhood as a means to control society.” – Brandon Smith

Let Trump Save Us from War with Iran – “Russia and China, having failed in their responsibility, left the problem with President Trump. On our side, let us not discredit Trump’s claim and, by doing so, resurrect Netanyahu’s justification for war with Iran. It would be difficult for Trump to resist Netanyahu’s pressure given Israel’s extraordinary influence in the US. Let’s pre-empt Israel’s pressure for more war by supporting Trump’s statement that there is no longer a nuclear threat from Iran.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Buffoonery and Delusions of Godhood – “Donald Trump compared his choreographed strike on Iran’s evacuated nuclear facilities to the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, claiming he ended the war he began at Israel’s insistence in the same way that Truman supposedly forced Japan to surrender. John Hersey and tens of millions of Japanese would like to have a word.” – Ohio Barbarian

A Hard-to-Digest, Whale of a Tale about Iranian Nuclear Bombs – “Nearly everyone says Iran’s enriched uranium is unaccounted for, but the president says the bomb threat has been obliterated as he heads for a Nobel Prize” – David Haggith.

Proliferation, Retaliation, And Other Consequences Of The War On Iran – “There are several aspects of the U.S. and Israeli attacks on nuclear facilities that deserve further discussions:” – Moon of Alabama

3 Uncomfortable Facts about Israel’s War on Civilization that You Won’t Learn from Mainstream Media – “And all this time you thought Israel was fighting something called “Hamas”! Poor dears, what else could you think, what with all the U.S. news outlets and “experts” and talking heads telling you the same thing? But they lied. They told you that Israel was fighting a “war.” They lied. What Israel is doing in Gaza isn’t a “war.” It’s a genocide. They told you the carnage was only intended to affect the Middle East. They lied.They told you not to worry: that it’s all under control. Again, they lied. They didn’t tell you that they have no idea how this will end – if it will ever end.” – Michael Lesher

Daddy bombs Iran, spanks NATO, and somehow ends up the peacemaker – “After a few insults and some light humiliation, Trump convinced Europe to bankroll his war machine – to the tune of 5% GDP” – Rachel Marsden

Escape from New York: Democrats Embrace Socialist for New Mayor – “The presumptive selection (pending the results of New York’s ranked-voting system) of Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani as the Democratic nominee has sent shockwaves throughout the business and political establishment. For those calling for the party to move more to the center, New Yorkers just responded with a Bronx cheer by choosing a socialist who wants city-run grocery stores, an eleven-percent city corporate tax rate, free child care, free buses, and other far-left wish list items. Real estate in Florida is about to skyrocket.” – Jonathan Turley  – WHERE’S “SNAKE” PLISSKEN WHEN YOU NEED HIM!!!!!!!!!!

Illegal immigration, Chicago style – “Most “news” about illegal aliens focuses on Southern California or New York City, the twin headquarters of the left-wing propaganda networks. Here in Chicago, the fallout from illegals is at least as bad — maybe worse. We just don’t get any national press. Anything that makes Democrats look bad is almost always labeled “local Chicago news,” with zero national coverage.” – Jim Davis

THE US DOLLAR CRASHES. (TRUMP’S BIG FAT BEAUTIFUL SPENDING BILL COULD MELT-UP STOCKS). (VIDEO) – “We haven’t seen anything yet with regard to what’s about to happen and what’s being set up for the US dollar right now, uh, The consumer is being systematically wiped out, our factories are dying dying, praying for a lifeline which they’re not going to get. We’re going to get further debt expansion on a cycle and scale I don’t believe that has ever been even dreamt about in the history of this nation or even the world which means massive currency devaluation. No company in their right mind would start building a factory here in the United States right now. It ain’t happening, okay. All the fake news about, oh a pledge for this and a pledge for that; if you drank that Kool-Aid too again you’re being deceived by the great deceiver. Does that phrase sound familiar to you? Yeah, maybe you guys need to wake up.”‘ – Gregory Mannarino

Seven Years for 85 Percent – “Tim Kuniskis, the CEO of Ram trucks, said something interesting the other day in the course of a presentation about the new 10 year/100,000 mile powertrain coverage that Ram will be offering as standard equipment beginning next year. He said: “Eighty-five percent of truck buyers finance for seven years or more. They keep it for 12 years because everything’s gotten more expensive.” The last part is of course as much a revelation as the Pope being Catholic. But the former is both revelatory and interesting in that it explains how it is that so many people seem to be buying new trucks that sell for nearly $50,000 to start and routinely “transact” for $70,000 or more. They’re financing them. For a long time.” – Eric Peters  – ERIC LAYS OUT THE FINANCING. THINKING ABOUT BUYING THAT NEW TRUCK OR CAR, READ UP. AND DON’T FORGET THE COST OF INSURANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE BIG PICTURE

The Israeli, Iran, and U.S. Hollywood War Production Is Underway: WWIII Staged Plot? – “The statement: “You can’t make this shit up,” is now not appropriate, because they have made all this shit up, and continue to do so daily. What does this mean? There is no way to be certain of anything at this point, except that everything being reported is mostly all (if not all) lies from every angle, as the continuous fakery; WWIII fears, nuke fears, oil fears, etc., will continue to be blasted from the rooftops to all who continue to buy into this nonsense. The nefarious drive toward worthless stable coins, CBDCs, full digitization, economic chaos, AI, Transhumanism, weather geo-engineering, fake climate change, and global slavery, among a plethora of other agendas, is ongoing, while most all are concentrating on this Hollywood war production that is being played out on Trump’s WWE stage of insanity.” – Gary D. Barnett – A MUST READ FROM GARY!!!!!

70% of Tennessee Embalmers Still Seeing Death by Clot Shot (VIDEO) – “And 39% are seeing a fourteen percent increase in Infant Death. During the winter of 2023/2024, Thomas Haviland conducted the, “Worldwide Embalmer Blood Clot Survey,” where in embalmers from the United States, Canada, Australia and the UK were surveyed about the blood clots. The study found that the “White Fibrous Clots” were not seen by anyone Pre-Covid/jab, and over seventy percent were seeing them after the Covid/jab in twenty percent of their corpses.” – Greg Reese  – GOOD ONE AS USUAL FROM GREG!!!

America’s Most Lawless Agency: ICE Is the Prototype for Tyranny – “While the U.S. wages war abroad—bombing Iran, escalating conflict, and staging a spectacle of power for political gain—a different kind of war is being waged here at home. This war at home is quieter but no less destructive. The casualties are not in distant deserts or foreign cities. They are our freedoms, our communities, and the Constitution itself. And the agents of this domestic war? Masked thugs. Unmarked vans. Raids. Roundups. Detentions without due process. Retaliation against those who dare to question or challenge government authority. People made to disappear into bureaucratic black holes. Fear campaigns targeting immigrant communities and political dissenters alike. Surveillance weaponized to monitor and suppress lawful activity.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

The Surveillance State – “It’s a Panopticon! “Panopticon” is one of those interesting words from history—the idea of a perfectly transparent prison where inmates could be watched and monitored 24/7/365. The concept is more than 200 years old, One thing is certain: privacy is certainly a thing of the past. To the question of who owns your data, the answer often is: Not you. Why is this? For many reasons, of course, not the least being that knowledge is power and that powerful entities want more power, so they want more of your information.” – Bill Astore

Follow the Money. WHO’s Directing Global Health Policy? – “The Australian Medical Professionals’ Society has published an exposé of the conflicts of interest and corruption within the World Health Organization. The majority of the top-100 donors to the WHO’s specified donations program were pharmaceutical companies or aligned with pharmaceutical interests.” – . James Roguski

The key nuclear allegation that started the war was coaxed from a Palantir counter-intelligence algorithm – “Trump sided with the Israelis, asserting that Iran was ‘very close’ to having a bomb, and added that he didn’t care what Gabbard thinks.” – Alastair Crooke

The Hidden Tragedy of Neurological Vaccine Injuries – “The subtle dangers of vaccinations must be considered when assessing if their risks and benefits justify mandating them” – A Midwestern Doctor

Bill Gates’ New $1.6 Billion Project to Vaccinate Children Worldwide 2,673,347 adverse events linked to vaccines since 1990, according to CDC VAERS. The move comes after a recent Gates Foundation–funded human trial in South Africa injected children with live tuberculosis-family bacteria, infecting 260 kids—while earlier Gates-backed gain-of-function research had already engineered tuberculosis strains to grow uncontrollably.” – JonFleetwood

NEWS 

Hebrewism – “One of the many strange things to come out of the short war between Israel and Iran is the fact that many of our politicians seem to worship Jewish people. It could also be that they worship Israel or perhaps some combination of both. They talk about Israel and the Jewish people as if they are gods sent to earth as a test. Those who commit themselves to protecting these magical beings are the people of the light, while everyone else is in the forever darkness. This is not a new thing.” – The Z Man

FLAME-ON DON Faces Ceasefires Broken and Mega MAGA Meltdowns All around him – “The president lividly expressed his fury today as the ceasefire he boasted about appeared to end as soon as it began or maybe to have never begun at all.” – David Haggith

Empire of Chaos Takes War on BRICS to Next Level – “They came. They bunker-busted. They fled. And then they set the stage to control the narrative via a massive P.R. operation.” – Pepe Escobar

Humiliation: Israel Tucks Tail After Failing All Objectives in War against Victorious Iran – “Yesterday, Iran retaliated for the US ‘strikes’ on its nuclear facilities, concluding the final act of the choreographed play we’ve been witnessing. It launched Operation Basharat al-Fath (بشارت الفتح), which reportedly means ‘Glad Tidings of Victory’, or ‘Good News of the Conquest’ if you ask Google, hitting the US Al Udaid base in Qatar. The US claims everything was intercepted, and of course, again it was revealed that the entire act was ‘agreed upon’ between both sides.” – Simplicius

Israel, The World’s Top Candidate for Regime Change – “Israel with Trump’s Backing Continues to Be Such a Deviant Polity It Must Not Be Allowed to Continue Its Current Crime Spree. Regime Change is the Obvious Remedy. Bibi Netanyahu is the Prime Minister of Israel. For a substantial portion of the world’s people, the Israeli PM is also the most reviled war criminal of the twenty first century. What is wrong with this picture? What is wrong with the people of Israel and those that back up the tribe ruled by such a pathological and bloodthirsty war monger.” – Anthony James Hall.

Trump the dealmaker emerges from Israel-Iran war looking more powerful than ever – “But will his heavy handed approach to diplomacy backfire on America? This subterfuge has helped Trump get his way to date, but you have to wonder if in the long run it won’t be his undoing. At some point, he ends up with a credibility problem. His word will be completely devoid of any meaning, because no one will know if it’s his actual position or just a decoy, a set up for what will later be an opposite stance. At some point, global leaders are going to get tired of being played. Let your yes be yes and your no be no. One thing is for certain. Trump does not respect the sovereignty of other nation states.” – Leo Hohmann

Hey, POTUS, America Don’t Need No Bunker Busters, Either (Part 2) – “We have observed on multiple occasions that Donald J. Trump is an unhinged, egomaniacal Caesarist who knows no limits to power. Indeed, it would appear that he believes himself to be the CEO of the world, bombing Iran last weekend for the good of mankind despite the fact that it poses no military threat whatsoever to the USA, as we amplified in Part 1;” – David Stockman  – PART 1 WAS LINKED YESTERDAY!!!

Lindsey Graham Breaks With Donald Trump Over Iran – “”There can be no peace between Iran and Israel until Iran decides to change its policy, which is the regime policy of destroying the state of Israel and killing all the Jews,” Graham said. “Until that changes, nothing really changes. The program has been decimated, but that people who are in charge will come right back at Israel. So, I’m looking at regime change in this sense.” Earlier Tuesday, Trump walked back his own suggestions of a regime change.” – Dan Gooding and Hannah Parry

Mamdani Stuns Cuomo in New York Mayoral Primary – “Zohran Mamdani appears poised to be the Democratic nominee for mayor, where he could face a contested race that will include Eric Adams and perhaps Andrew Cuomo” – Emma G. Fitzsimmons and Nicholas Fandos.

Trump Admin Mulls Executive Orders Targeting Debanking – “The Trump administration is reportedly preparing an executive order to block banks from denying services to politically disfavored industries—particularly crypto firms and gun manufacturers, according to CoinTelegraph and the WSJ. The move comes as part of a broader backlash against what critics are calling “Operation Chokepoint 2.0,” a term that refers to the alleged, informal coordination between financial regulators and banks to “debank” certain legal but politically controversial sectors.” – Tyler Durden – THE TRUMPSTER IS ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING POSITIVE!!!

This DIY Chicken Feeder Keeps Chickens Fed for a Month – Heidi Hawthorn

Fully Automatic Firearms? No Thanks! – “First of all, fully-automatic and semi-automatic aren’t the same thing. Fully-automatic means that the firearm (whether rifle or pistol) will keep loading and firing, as long as the trigger of the firearm is depressed. Semi-automatic just means that the firearm will reload and cock itself, preparing to shoot the next round. That round will not be shot until the trigger is pressed again. Holding the trigger down after a shot is fired doesn’t do anything to fire the next shot.The mainstream news media messes these definitions up royally, probably by intention, calling semi-automatic firearms “assault weapons” all the time, especially AR-15 rifles, in all their variants. But that doesn’t make those guns assault weapons any more than calling me thin causes me to lose weight. ” – Bill White

You’ve Heard of Raised Beds – Now Meet ‘Keyhole Gardens’ – Ashley Zlatopolsky

Bury These 8 Items Before The Next Crisis – “Looters, desperate neighbors, and even authorities can quickly become a threat to your hard-earned supplies post-SHTF. One of the best ways to keep your essentials safe is to bury them in strategic, discreet locations. This method allows you to hide items from prying eyes and ensures that when things get chaotic, you still have what you need to survive.” – Matt Wright

Another Look at Your EDC Gear and Your GHB – “There are two essential survival kits that deserve another look — both because of their importance and the confusion and misunderstandings that so often surround them. These kts are similar, but they are not the same. What sets them apart is their individuality and their applications.” – Dr. Rick

VERSE FOR THE DAY

Ecclesiastes 10:12-14    The words of a wise man’s mouth are gracious; but the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.  The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.  A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?

THE BIG PICTURE

“Sleeper Cells” – “So now – the next thing – may be “activation” of “sleeper cells” – i.e., the always useful enemy within. The new “enemies of freedom,” as yesterday’s Chimp used to style them. Will today’s Chimp be talking about them soon? In a way, he already has been. He has mentioned what he styles “homegrowns,” meaning Americans who question the actions of the government of the state of Israel. This is both “anti-Semitic” and terroristic, at least implicitly. Soon, perhaps, explicitly. What do you suppose will happen if – when – the “sleeper cells” attack? More finely, what do you suppose today’s Chimp will do when that happens? Do you hear the sounds of that loathsome Lee Greenwood song yet? Can you feel the reds, white- and blue boot on your neck yet?” – Eric Peters

These fantasy cities of the future might be your new home – “The ultra-wealthy are planning your future right now. They’ll call it ‘utopia’ and sell it to you as such, but it’s actually the opposite.” – Collapse Life – HAVE LINKED ABOUT NEOM BEFORE. HERE’S MORE ON IT AND A FEW OTHERS!!!

Digital Harvest — BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street: Shareholders in the Shadows – “They don’t sell seeds. They don’t own tractors. They don’t run warehouses or ship grain. But BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street are among the most powerful actors in global agriculture. Together, these three asset managers control more than $26 trillion in assets—more than the GDP of the United States and India combined. They are shareholders in nearly every major agribusiness: Bayer, Cargill, ADM, Nestlé, Deere & Co and more. They don’t compete. They co-own. And through that ownership, they govern. This is not capitalism as competition. It’s capitalism as quiet coordination. ” – Colin Todhunter

NEWS 

First World Bombs From Third World Trumpenstein – “America 2.0 First. I hope Trump will replay his actions on Syria, when it was a one and done thing. Well, one and done two times. That’s the thing about Trumpenstein; he plays the part of an effective bully, but when Israel talks, he listens. Supposedly, the bombs eviscerated four well known nuclear sites in Iran. Except that many of us, including our own intelligence agencies just a few months ago, don’t believe there are any nuclear sites in Iran. For all we know, our big, beautiful bombs killed a bunch of civilians. It’s not like we haven’t slaughtered civilians countless times, dating back to 1846, in the Mexican-American War. As Marjorie Taylor Greene pointed out, no one voted for Trump so that he could attack Iran. No MAGA voter wanted to make Iran obsolete. Tulsi Gabbard embarrassed herself by backtracking her earlier, accurate comments on Iran’s nuclear capability. Maybe RFK, Jr. can give her Rabbi Shmuley’s phone number.” – Donald Jeffries

Hey, POTUS! America First Ain’t Got No Beef With Iran, Part 1 – David Stockman

Mullahs, Rabbis & Priests – “One of the things ignored about the outbreak of war between Iran, Israel and the United States is that it brought the great religions into conflict. The prior wars in the region have been mostly Israel against one of the Muslim countries or the United States against one of the Muslim countries. This is the first time that all three religions were in open conflict with one another. The conflict reveals some things about the state of each of the Abrahamic religions and the cultures they represent. The cause of the war, of course, was the sneak attack by Israel, and supported by the United States, aimed at decapitating the Iranian government. Putting everything about the region aside, it was an insane act.” – The Z Man

President Trump on Israel and Iran: “They don’t know what the f*ck they’re doing.” (VIDEO) – “Israel, as soon as we made the deal, they came out and they dropped a load of bombs the likes of which I’ve never seen before. The biggest load that we’ve seen. I’m not happy with Israel. You know when when I say “Okay now you have 12 hours.” You don’t go out in the first hour and just drop everything you have on them. So I’m not happy with them. I’m not happy with Iran either, but I’m really unhappy if Israel is going out this morning because of one rocket that didn’t land that was shot perhaps by mistake that didn’t land. I’m not happy about that. You know what we have we basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing. Do you understand that?” – C-SPAN

Trump yelling ‘ceasefire’ doesn’t mean ‘ceasefire’. – “A narcissistic US President thinking he runs the world while Iran and the Resistance Axis are proving him wrong time and time again.” – Vanessa Beeley

What We Have Here is a Failure to Communicate – “Just like Mossad exploding pagers, and MI-6/CIA/Ukrainian/Mossad truck borne drones laying in wait to attack Russia’s nuclear triad, we see after the US performative attack on the nuclear capability at Fordow, the perpetrators cannot help bragging after the fact on how sly and devious they were, and for this we should be grateful. Lying heads of state, who boast about their terror tactics serve two key purposes: First, they instruct foe and friend alike in the ease and usefulness of terrorism, ensuring both defensive preparation and creative emulation against the state; and second they reveal intrinsic command weakness and treachery of the state vis a vis its own population. It’s always good to see the true nature of the state, and while it isn’t filled with lizard people, it is indeed and undeniably morally alien to humanity.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

The 12-Day War? – “Israel, Iran, and the U.S. Theater of Death. Last night, President Trump declared the so-called 12-Day War between Israel and Iran is over, though the president admitted this AM that both countries have already broken the ceasefire.More than a few people have suggested we’ve been watching an elaborate form of theater as Israel, Iran, and the U.S. have traded deadly strikes. If so, even that worries me, since theater among other things requires smart actors, sound direction, plenty of rehearsal, savvy scriptwriters, and talented crews. I’m not convinced our version of war theater is in skilled hands.” – Bill Astore

PSYOP-WW3 CEASEFIRE? – “…nothing is really what it seems. And then all of a sudden Trump, who just yesterday was throwing around the term “regime change” during his usual social media trolling, suddenly announced a ceasefire:” – 2nd Smartest Guy in the World

What In The World Just Happened In The Middle East? – “The last 24 hours have been beyond weird. Just hours ago, everyone was freaking out because Iran had just fired a bunch of missiles at a major U.S. military base in Qatar. But then we found out that most of the missiles were intercepted, not a single person was hurt, and very little damage was done. On top of everything else, President Trump announced that the Iranians had informed the U.S. that the missiles were coming in advance…” – Michael Snyder – SEEMS A LITTLE BIT LIKE THEATER, DOESN’T IT.

Zohrangrad, NY – “For the love of God, New York. Elect anyone but this idiot. If you’ve ever thought to yourself, “You know what New York needs? The economic strategy of East Berlin implemented with the brain torque of AOC” then Zohran Mamdani might be your guy for Mayor. But for the rest of us—those who believe in the pesky idea that a city shouldn’t collapse under the weight of its own ideological delusions—his candidacy should be a walking red flag with a bullhorn. Mamdani, a thirtysomething with the political experience of a student council president, is pitching an alarming fantasy vision of New York that’s long on slogans and painfully short on realism.” – Quoth the Raven  – IF YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT MAMDANI, YOU WILL.

THE BIG PICTURE

Iran So Far Away – “There are last who shall be first, and first who shall be last. Are you so confused dear Americans about who you pay taxes to, and who will sacrifice your kids in a war for a few feet of worthless desert they claim was promised to them 3000 years ago in books written over centuries by anonymous authors about a Kingdom called Israel that existed briefly from 1100 BC until it was wiped out by the Assyrian empire in 720 BC? How many readers know (unlike “Christian” Ted Cruz) that Abraham was a nomadic Mesopotamian from Ur, technically a ‘gentile’ before the word existed, who fathered Isaac, who fathered Jacob, who became Israel, who had twelve sons—the twelve tribes of Israel—which included one tribe that later split and became the Kingdom of Judah, which is where the term ‘Jews’ originates, but only makes them one of many tribes of Israelites, essentially meaning biblically, the modern State of Israel draws its name and mythos from a kingdom that Jews were only 1/12th descended from?” – The Good Citizen

MAHA-FDA: “we are creating a safe space for pharma companies”. – “Read this article for more exciting news on future drugs and vaccines without safety or efficacy testing!  In case you thought that the listening tour was to listen to vaccine victims – don’t hold your breath. In a weekly recap video, Makary said the goal of the pharma listening sessions has been to create a “safe space” for executives to air grievances and proposals, free from shareholders or employees. This clarifies the MAHA-FDA priorities, doesn’t it?” – Sasha Latypova

Then What? – “One of the critical questions in any strategy is “Then what?” This question must be asked with every proposed move and counter move. For the last five years this has been at the center of American politics. The regime has clearly lost the ability to ask, much less answer the question, “Then what?” The war in Ukraine is in its fourth year because no one in the West could bother to ask the question, much less answer it. President Trump now has himself in a terrible jam because no one on his team thought to ask this question when they were plotting the Pearl Harbor style sneak attack on Iran.” – The Z Man

When Pathology Gets Disguised As Strategy – ” Nothing would suit me better than having to admit it turns-out Trump has a peace strategy. Begging the question: Is Trump being governed by a peace strategy—or a pathology? Israel, for various rationales, feels a need to slaughter everyone in sight, in defense of the tyranny it wields across the Middle East. Along this path, Israel gets to have illegal nuclear weapons (because might makes right), while Iran is not allowed nuclear weapons, defensive capability, or needed energy from peaceful nuclear enrichment. Ironically, under the JCPOA, Iran was bound to levels of enrichment incapable of producing weapons, which made the issue of a nuclear weapon a moot point.” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com

The Mad King’s War – “Trump didn’t want to be left out of the action, so he has joined it with no thought for what it will mean for American military personnel or our national interests.” – Daniel Larison

The Horsemen of the Apocalypse – “Israel and Israel’s Western puppets have turned war into an ongoing activity that does not need declaration. For Israel’s reasons, not for America’s, President trump has militarily attacked a regional military power without Congress’ declaration of war as required by the US Constitution. Clearly, war has prevailed over the Constitution. This began with Bill Clinton’s presidency, and expanded with subsequent presidents. Israel has obtained the power where Israel can send America to war and we hapless Americans can do nothing about it.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Shayrat Redux? Trump’s ‘Invisible’ Fleet Leaves Mirage of ‘Devastation’ in Iran – “Well, Trump did it again: under cover of giving Iran “two weeks” negotiating time, he instead launched a covert attack as soon as the assets were in place, later telling ‘Meet the Press’ that he said he would make the decision within two weeks, and two days technically falls in that time scale.

THE BIG PICTURE

We Cannot Love Without First Loving God – “There is surely not a Christian alive who is not intimately familiar with the Great Commandment. Nor are there likely any who are not also aware of the second Commandment, which Jesus presented as nearly co-equal with the first. Yet I suspect we often do not pause to consider all that Jesus might have been saying in this teaching. Recently I have been struck by its logical elegance, its all-encompassing completeness. At first, Jesus might be seen as saying too much.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Trump Getting Deep in Some Weird Satan Shit as He Prepares for Big Time War for Israel – “The fact that Mike Huckabee thinks he’s the prophet Nathan advising King David is perhaps to be expected. He is a deeply confused,.. Everyone knows what to expect from this guy. There are obviously different forms of Christianity, and there are genuine followers of these different forms of Christianity, and I think there are good people in most of the forms of Christianity. There are no good people in the “bless those that bless Israel” form of Christianity. At least not after they’ve seen what that looks like in Gaza. It is impossible to have a form of Christianity that supports the mass murder of children. Outside of any theology, it is just stupid on its face that Jesus Christ would want people to mass murder children. There are people who believe in this religion, but it isn’t Christianity, it is Satanism with a (very thin Puritan/Calvinist materialist) veneer of Christianity. What you would hope not to expect is that Donald Trump would post this text on his Truth Social site as if he thinks people like this sort of thing.” – Andrew Anglin  – DIDN’T REALIZE HUCKABEE WAS THAT CRAZED UNTIL I READ TRUMP’S TRUTH SOCIAL POST!!!

So, the US just bombed Iran… – “Who can say what’s true? Any footage that emerges could be AI generated. Or cut scenes from a video game. Or videos of some other explosion in some other war. Maybe the US really did drop bombs on real places and real people died. Maybe they dropped real bombs on empty places (after phoning ahead, we know they do that) and no one died. Maybe neither the bombs nor the places are real. We know that governments of supposedly “enemy” countries work together to sell a grand lie. Iran not only went along with “Covid”, but was instrumental in early stages of the narrative. We know none of the governments of the USA, Israel or Iran care about the lives of each other’s civilians. More importantly, we know none of them care about the lives of their own civilians either.” – Kit Knightly  – INTERESTING POINTS FROM KIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump Let Himself Be Led By Israel Into Bombing Iran – “Bibi, other members of the Israeli government, and anti-Iranian hawks within Trump’s own convinced him that a window of opportunity has opened up to knock Iran out of the geopolitical game for good.” – Andrew Korybko

Turkey is Next – “Regardless, it’s now clear that as long as Team Netanyahu and the other fanatics are in charge of Israel, Israeli success will never lead to peace of any kind. And at this point, it would appear to be preemptive self-defense if Turkey and Pakistan were to enter the war against Israel, given the stated imperialist objectives of the current Israeli regime. If President Trump does attack Iran, it will be the biggest mistake of his life and he will lose the greater part of his support even before he loses the war. He will certainly lose mine. Remember, there are no guarantees that the US+Israel can defeat Iran alone. And it is all but certain that the two “greatest allies” cannot defeat a broad alliance of Iran, Turkey, Pakistan, Russia, and China.” – VOX POPOLI

Mutiny on the USS MAGA – “And during his first term, President Trump did a good job avoiding new wars. Despite some scuffles with Iran, he successfully steered the USS MAGA clear of any new quagmires (unlike Obama).

Why we’ll risk WW3 over Iran – “A backgrounder on imperialist meddling. The history of Iran’s troubled relationship with Western powers, particularly Britain and America, has roots deep in geopolitical manipulation and imperialistic exploitation, beginning with the discovery of oil in the early 20th century. In 1908, vast oil reserves were discovered in southwestern Iran. Quickly realizing the strategic and economic significance, Britain established the Anglo-Persian Oil Company (now British Petroleum). Britain effectively monopolized Iranian oil, controlling extraction, profits, and even political affairs. Motivated purely by economic interests, Britain undermined Iranian sovereignty, manipulating local leaders and fostering dependency.” – Sarah Connor

Americans Shouldn’t Have to Subsidize Their Own Mistreatment – “There is plenty of evidence that taxpayer dollars are funding the anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles and elsewhere. Here’s how that happens: domestic agitators set up “non-profits” and other kinds of “non-governmental organizations” with deceptively innocuous names. This isn’t anything new. Have you ever wondered why so many government-adjacent “influencers” who show up on cable news are the “president,” “founder,” or “CEO” of organizations with serious-sounding names whose activities sound peculiarly vague? Most of those empty suits with fancy titles are the heads of recently made-up entities that specialize in leeching off the taxpayer.” – J.B. Shurk

IMAGES FOR THE DAY

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK 

Ain’t getting old
Ain’t getting younger though
Just getting used
To the lay of the land
I ain’t tongue-tied
Just don’t got nothin’ to say
I’m proud to be livin’ in the U.S.A.

Ready to go, willin’ to stay and pay
U.S.A., U.S.A.
So my sweet love can dance
Another free day
U.S.A., U.S.A.

In history we painted pictures grim
The devil knows
We might feel that way again
The big wind blows
So the tall grass bends
But for you don’t
Push too hard my friend

Ready to go, willin’ to stay and pay
U.S.A., U.S.A.
So my sweet love can dance
Another free day
U.S.A., U.S.A.

Got people here
Down on their knees and prayin’
Hawks and doves
Are circlin’ in the rain
Got rock and roll
Got country music playin’
If you hate us, you just
Don’t know what you’re sayin’

Ready to go, willin’ to stay and pay
U.S.A., U.S.A.
So my sweet love can dance
Another free day
U.S.A., U.S.A.

THE BIG PICTURE

The Lizardmen’s Evil Intentions – “Lizardmen. Yeah, right. David Icke’s invention. Is it based on truth? Who knows. It’s about as good as any other theory. But it is rather common to come up with something quite outlandish if you can find another way to reconcile certain extremely vile human behaviour. If you run across a Son of Sam type character—a serial killer named David Berkowitz who murdered six people in New York City during the 1970s—or even a Hitler—and we all know what he did—it is much easier to write them off as some inhuman entity than just a whacked-out human being. Otherwise, we would have to admit we are all capable of such atrocities.” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP  – ANOTHER GOOD ONE FROM TODD!!!

Accounting for accountability – Sorting the correct fight out of the false one. Those seeking to act badly have been granted not only full, unaccountable license, but actual justification and even congratulations and apology. Because that’s what happens when you fetishize marginalization, mistake it for virtue, and teach it as entitlement.” – El Gato Malo

Sticking Your Head In The Sand Won’t Make The Book Of Revelation Go Away – Michael Snyder – AND FALSE INTERPRETATIONS OF THE BIBLE WON’T MAKE IT GO AWAY AS WELL!!!

This Hurricane Season Is One of the Slowest to Start in 20 Years – “The Atlantic season began officially on June 1. Three weeks in, there still hasn’t been a named storm.” – Erin McCann and Judson Jones  – HMM, WHAT ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE CAUSING MORE HURRICANES!!!!!!!!

The weather is nice so we have to freak out about heatwaves now – “We always have to be freaking out about something. The freaking out can never, ever stop. We must be freaking out all the time, The weather right now is beautiful, which means that the meteorologists and the Health Ministers and the rest of the hysterical botherers are having a big sad. This is because they are climatists, and climatism makes of every nice summer day an opportunity to publish heatwave gloom and doom. It’s not even particularly hot in Germany right now, but it is hot in Spain and it is hot in Great Britain” – eugyppius

NEWS 

Israel is not Our Ally . . . and Iran is not Our Enemy – “The state of Israel has interests, too. The question before the United States (now singular) is whether the interests of the state of Israel are congruent with the interests of the people of the United States. Specifically, does it make America great again to involve itself in a war with Iran – a country that has not attacked the United States and only responded to an attack by the state of Israel, which openly says it will not allow other states to possess the nuclear deterrent it itself possesses?” – Eric Peters

World to Muslims: Conform or Get Off My Lawn. – “This week was a tipping point. From every part of the culture but the bonkers left, the entire world, high and low, said “ENOUGH”.” – Elizabeth Nickson – AS USUAL I LIKE TO SHOW VARYING OPINIONS AND THE READER CAN DO THEIR OWN RESEARCH!!!

Oh look! A ‘think tank’ manufacturing consent to bomb Iran with tactical nukes – “Trump is considering a tactical nuke attack on Iranian soil which will have apocalyptic consequences. On the 19th of June, the Atlantic Council published this hit piece against Iran, – Vanessa Beeley  – OH, THE ATLANTIC COUNCIL, NO LESS. IMAGINE THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hasten Very Slowly to War – “Learning from Sparta” – Bill Astore

Expansionist CCP Runs Amok in Pacific After U.S. Relocates Naval Assets to Mid-East – “Ask any of China’s neighbors — except for its vassal states Laos. Cambodia and North Korea — and they’ll tell you that the CCP is a regional menace. Obviously, the world and the United States itself would be better off without a global neoliberal empire on everyone’s neck. But it wouldn’t be any more utopian if the CCP steps into the vacuum and makes the entire Eastern Hemisphere its bitch. If it were just Taiwan in the CCP crosshairs — which, after all, is historically and ethnically Chinese and arguably rightfully theirs — that would be understandable if not almost forgivable. However, China lays claim to territories belonging to virtually every one of its neighbors in the region.” – Ben Bartee

On being British and being collapse-aware – “Stop waiting for the “old world” to fix itself and start building a new one — intentionally. ” – Collapse Life

Battle plan Iran: NATO’s latest extermination campaign – “What we are doing here is historic – we are changing the face of the Middle East. ~ IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir Although the IDF are changing the face of the Middle East, they are also changing the global rules of war, as well as the laws of God and man to achieve their aims and none of that is good for any of us.” – Declan Hayes

Media Reports U.S. B-2 Stealth Bombers are on the Move – “Multiple media reports are now outlining the movement of U.S. B-2 Stealth Bombers amid the possibility of strikes targeting Iranian nuclear facilities. However, despite what many media outlets might narrate, there is no way to determine the intent of the movements until some type of action actually takes place. It is all supposition. The media are giddy with excitement.” – Sundance

Bugging in isn’t about waiting it out; it’s about stretching every calorie, watt, and drop of water until normalcy (whatever that is) returns. And here’s the hard truth: Most preppers screw this up.” – Bob Rodgers

Why more Americans are stocking up in uncertain times and how you can prep, too – “Over the past few years, more Americans have embraced the idea of prepping—not in the extreme, doomsday sense, but as a practical way to ensure their families’ safety, security, and self-sufficiency in an unpredictable world. Prepping doesn’t have to be expensive, overwhelming, or driven by fear.” – Refine Staff

THE BIG PICTURE

The Real National Emergency: Endless Wars, Failing Infrastructure, and a Dying Republic – “Seventy years after President Dwight D. Eisenhower warned about the cost of a military-industrial complex, America is still stealing from its own people to fund a global empire. This isn’t about national defense. This is empire maintenance. It’s about preserving a military-industrial complex that profits from endless war, global policing, and foreign occupations—while the nation’s infrastructure rots and its people are neglected. The United States has spent much of the past half-century policing the globe, occupying other countries, and waging endless wars. What most Americans fail to recognize is that these ongoing wars have little to do with keeping the country safe and everything to do with propping up a military-industrial complex that has its sights set on world domination. War has become a huge money-making venture, and the U.S. government, with its vast military empire, is one of its best buyers and sellers.’ – John & Nisha Whitehead

It’s Not a Broken System: From Food to Development, It’s a Masterpiece of Control – “Industrial agriculture is not a system in crisis. It is a system in command. Engineered with precision, it reflects the civilisational logic of industrial modernity: domination over cooperation, profit over sufficiency, scale over ecology. It is not malfunctioning—it is functioning exactly as designed. ” – Colin Todhunter

How the Covid lockdowns proved we are dead as a species – “There’s no way out. When the world shut down in early 2020, we witnessed a gargantuan level of economic disruption. Streets emptied, businesses closed, and millions lost their jobs almost overnight. Fear was balanced by hope. Unfortunately hope was then decapitated by reality. I finally saw what was really behind the curtain. It was not pretty.” – Sarah Connor

The Depopulation Plan – “There is, in case you hadn’t noticed, a plan to reduce the world’s population by nine tenths” – Dr. Vernon Coleman via Lioness of Judah

Covid is a Military Operation that Never Stopped (VIDEO) – ” To date few in the “freedom” community realize or discuss the fact that covid operation had nothing to do with public health. This needs to change before any justice or reform can be accomplished.” – Sasha Latypova

Fine Print of NIH’s Gain-of-Function Update Shows Dangerous Pathogen Research Still Allowed – “NIH still “accepting requests for exceptions to terminations or suspensions.”” – Jon Fleetwood

 

 

 

NEWS 

The Iran Trap: Everyone Wants Americans To Fight Their Wars For Them – “One of the defining aspects of Ukraine’s strategy in the war against Russia is escalation – Not so much in terms of damage to Russia, but in terms of western involvement. Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky has made it his primary mission to convince western allies that their direct intervention in the war is absolutely necessary. Why? He asserts that Ukraine is the “guardian at the gate” supposedly preventing Russia from steamrolling through Europe. The claim is absurd for a few reasons.” – Brandon Smith

Nuclear War Ala Mode? – “Trump and Netanyahu conspire to destroy Iran” – Philip Giraldi

Is Donald Trump Considering Tactical Nukes Against Iran? What We Know – “The Trump administration has not taken anything “off the table,” including the use of tactical nuclear weapons, if it decides to take military action against the underground Iranian nuclear facility at Fordow, Fox News reported, citing a White House official. Experts have suggested Israel doesn’t have any conventional bombs capable of destroying the site, though on Thursday Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that “we have the capability” to “hit all of their nuclear facilities.” Unlike Israel, the U.S. possesses 30,000-pound GBU-57s “bunker buster” bombs that are specifically designed to reach targets buried deep beneath the surface and can be deployed by B-2 Spirit heavy bombers.” – James Bickerton

Bombing Hospitals Is Bad Again – “Western media outlets like the BBC and New York Times have suddenly remembered how to write headlines which assign blame to the attacker after deciding that hospitals getting bombed is a newsworthy event again.” – Caitlin Johnstone

Senator Ted Cruz, the “Leading Defender of Israel in the U.S.” Tells Tucker Carlson Why we Should Attack Iran – “This video is just short of 7 minutes, and if you want to understand the mindset of a Zionist, especially one in such a position of power as U.S. Senator Ted Cruz from Texas, then this is a video you are going to want to watch.” – Brian Shilhavy

An important geography lesson concerning a war with Iran – “The neocons are now proposing that we can defeat Iran with air power alone. Okay, maybe it will require American airpower. A few Bunker Busters and it will be all wrapped up. Air power alone will bring victory. This has never happened before, so let’s just say that despite their optimistic forecast, we do ultimately have to put “boots on the ground” to force a final Iranian defeat. Time for a brief comparative geography lesson related to just how many boots might be needed, if Iran doesn’t surrender after we shock and awe them with our air power. How did our experiences in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan turn out? Are you willing to repeat them at 5X scale?” – Matthew Bracken  – GOOD ANALYSIS FROM MATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Israel’s war on Iran is not about nuclear weapons – “It is, and has always been, about regime change and breaking the Axis of Resistance” – Robert Inlakesh

A Brief History of Israel and Iran (VIDEO) – “From it’s inception, Israel began the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians living on the land given to them by the British Crown. The new Israelis used biological warfare by poisoning village wells, which was considered a war crime, but ignored. In the early 1970s, Israel supplied weapons and intelligence to aid South Africa’s apartheid movement, in return for weapons grade uranium. Meanwhile, British imperialism has been infiltrating Persia for over a century. Iranian leadership had all the appearances of being vassals to the British Crown, until 1951, when Iran elected Mohammad Mossadegh as prime minister and voted to nationalize their oil. Time magazine called him “the Iranian George Washington,” and, “Man of the Year,” but the British view was that Iran had just “stolen” their biggest oil source. They organized an international boycott and began seizing tankers carrying Iranian oil. With the help of Allen Dulles and the CIA, British Intelligence ran “Operation Ajax.” Mohammad Reza Shah was taken into protective custody by British Intelligence and received cash from the CIA. After Mossadegh was overthrown in 1953, Mohammad Reza Shah was returned to Iran and put back in power, where he began forming alliances with Israeli businesses and the US military.” – Greg Reese

Slave Labor Won’t Save America – “In other words, when commie Mayor Bass tells CNN that America’s economy runs on illegal immigration, she is nonchalantly informing the network’s declining viewership that breaking the law is the only way for “entire sectors” to survive. Her admission won’t shock most Americans, but it should. Black markets are economic transactions that disregard existing law. In absolute dollar terms, the U.S. supports the second largest shadow economy in the world. It’s estimated to be worth at least $1.4 trillion each year.” – J.B. Shurk

The World Today…So Far – “There is nothing America First about a war between Israel and Iran.” – T.L. Davis

“They (America)won’t stand in our way.” Bibi Netanyahu, 2001. It’s now 2025. History is rhyming. – “6m video explaining how the Wealthiest People in the World carved Israel out of a desert and then deployed the myth of Chosenness to capture America” -Sage Hana

The Rogue’s New Gallery of Left-Wing Scoundrels – “The left’s martyr-making machine is in overdrive—recasting criminals, rioters, and radicals as victims, even as the public demands law, order, and sanity.” – Victor Davis Hanson

Critiquing Trump’s Point About Russia, The G7, & Ukraine – “Trump’s point is all over the place, being sensible, incomplete, and disingenuous all in one.’ – Andrew Korybko

 

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

THE NEXT 4 MONTHS… (DESTABILIZE THROUGH PROXY). The US Dollar IS DEAD. (VIDEO) – ” I really want to focus on what’s happening with regard to the dollar, the economy ,deaths, deficits, war.” – Gregory Mannarino

Fed Holds Rates Steady as Inflation Persists, Gold Climbs Higher – Peter Schiffr

Rate Cuts? Uh, No – “The Fed press conference was nauseating. Prices continue to go up and yet everyone keeps basically dogging Powell on cutting rates which will make the problem worse. Where did the public, and media, get the idea that short rates in the mid 4% range are “high”? They’re not; and more to the point they still provide no time value against the rate of inflation. The problem is as noted by CNBC the other day in an article called “Most can no longer afford a minimal quality of life.” Not a few, not the bottom 10%, most.” – Karl Denninger

Will The Hawks, The Doves, Or The Cuckoos Win – Michael Every

The bear squeeze pauses despite war drums beating – “The shorts on Comex took the day off yesterday, being the Juneteenth National Independence Day. But their problems continue nevertheless… In European trade this morning, gold was $3350, down $85 from last Friday, while silver was $36.00, down 30 cents after a high of $37.31 on Tuesday. Yesterday was a US public holiday, so Comex dealing later today should be quiet. And it was interesting that in the absence of US dealing, gold and silver declined.” – Alasdair Macleod

Why Prices Never go Down – “In short, no. Prices will never durably fall until we get rid of the Federal Reserve. Because deflation — falling prices — is the #1 thing the Fed fears. Not unemployment. Not recession. Not nuclear war. This comes from that core propaganda that created central banks: The false claim that deflation itself is bad.” – Peter St Onge

 

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Preppers: What to Do When You Don’t Know What to Do – “We are living in absolutely crazy times right now. What with the crashing economy, the potential of world war getting closer and closer, looming terror threats, our fragile power grid, and frequent heated demonstrations about Gaza, Israel, the President, and ICE, it’s difficult to focus your prepping energy. A lot of folks have said they currently feel incredibly helpless because they don’t know what to do. Today, we’ll talk about what to do.” – Daisy Luther

You Caught a Looter on Your Property. Now What? – “SHTF scenarios often lead to overwhelmed or collapsed law enforcement, giving freedom to criminals and looters, who exploit the situation to their advantage. Whether you plan to bug out or bug in, the possibility of looters coming to your property must be considered.” – Aaron Pattison

Immunity for Polluters: How New Laws Threaten Your Soil & Food Supply (VIDEO)- Melissa K. Norris

Cooking Cheap And Nutritional Meals From Your Survival Pantry – “You’ve stockpiled beans, rice, and canned goods—the foundation of every smart prepper’s cheap and nutritious meals plan. Maybe you’ve even added powdered milk, a few spices, or those bulky #10 cans of freeze-dried veggies from Mountain House. But here’s the hard truth: If your survival meals taste like soggy cardboard, you’ll crack faster than a stale saltine when things get rough.” – Bob Rodgers

A Primer on Backup Power – Part 3 – “A PERMANENT MID-SIZE SOLAR SYSTEM, A PERMANENT LARGE-SCALE SOLAR SYSTEM and more…” – R.H.  – PARTS I AND 2 HAVE BEEN LINKED THE PAST TWO DAYS. THIS CONCLUDES THE ARTICLE!!
