THE BIG PICTURE

The Triumphant Yet Humble King – “The prophecy itself says much about what sort of King the coming Messiah would be: triumphant, victorious, and yet humble, riding on a colt, a foal, the young offspring of a donkey. For all the Messiah’s successes and glories, the prophecy indicates as King He would be on the same level as the people of Israel. With this imagery, the prophecy itself recalls the ancient Mosaic commandments for kings of Israel found in Deuteronomy: the king was to be from among the people of Israel, and no foreigner not of the nation of Israel was to rule; the king was to keep his own copy of the Law, and study it daily; the king was to remember he was as much under the Law as the rest of the people.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Who Controls Your Food… and Your Voice? The Rise of the Precautionary State – “How Risk Management Is Reshaping Freedom in Canada. Most Canadians are too busy living their lives to notice how quietly the rules around them are changing. They are working, raising families, running businesses, and trusting that the systems governing food production, property rights, and public safety exist mainly to protect them. But beneath the surface, a different model of governance has been steadily expanding. A system where authorities can intervene before wrongdoing is proven.” – Connie Shields  – A MUST READ FOR ALL CANADIANS AS WELL AS OTHERS!!!

They Want to Stop Lightning Now – “The real danger isn’t climate. It’s the belief we can control nature. There is a point where science stops asking questions and starts issuing commands. We are there. A Canadian startup now claims it can suppress lightning to prevent wildfires. The logic is simple and increasingly familiar. Lightning ignites fires. Fires release carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide contributes to climate change. Therefore, lightning itself has become a problem to solve. But that conclusion only makes sense if you accept a much deeper assumption. That natural systems are errors. And that we are capable of correcting them. This is not about lightning. It is about a fundamental shift in how nature is being framed.” – Dr. Matthew Wielicki

Geoengineering Watch Global Alert News, March 28, 2026 (VIDEO) – “Climate engineering / weather warfare operations are completely hindering the planet’s ability to respond to damage already done, if these operations are not fully exposed and halted, our days are numbered.” – Dane Wigington

Energy Lockdown: The Drumbeat Begins – “Six years later and nearly to the day, this new attempted lockdown seems to be going the same way, not concerning infectious disease but energy use. Isn’t it remarkable how the officially recommended methods of managing these completely different realms bear so much in common? They both come down to restricting your liberty, rationing your consumption, redirecting your attention, and shouting down critics.Suddenly, this institution called the International Energy Agency holds new prominence in world media. Founded in 1974, it’s an NGO associated with OPEC. It has no hard but only soft power – like the World Health Organization, with whom the IEA shares a similarly authoritative branding. There is a new Fauci too. The head of the IEA is highly decorated and universally praised Dr. Fatih Birol. Though he has never worked in industry, any more than Fauci had seen patients in decades,” – Brownstone Institute

A Scientist Opened a ‘Portal to Hell’ in 1946 and Trump’s White House Just Registered ‘Aliens.Gov’ (Pt. 2 of 2) – ‘Two Department of Defense physicists tried to warn The Pentagon in 1991 and no one listened” – 🐺The Wise Wolf  – PART 1 OF THIS INTERESTING READ IS LINKED BELOW, READ IT FIRST. THERE ARE ALSO SEVERAL VIDEOS ON YOU TUBE ABOUT JACK PARSONS!!!

A Scientist Opened a ‘Portal to Hell’ in 1946 and Trump’s White House Just Registered ‘Aliens.Gov’ (Pt. 1 of 2) – “Something is coming through the door Jack Parsons opened. The government wants you to think it’s friendly.” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

Unfortunately, The Israeli Government Blocks Palm Sunday Worship at Church of the Holy Sepulchre – “For the first time in centuries, the Catholic mass at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem commemorating Palm Sunday, was stopped as a result of security concerns. Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem and launches the Holy Week commemorations for Christians which culminates in Easter.” – Sundance

The Donroe Doctrine After Impact Phil Butler – “The internal transformation of power in the United States and the foreign policy decisions of the Trump administration are leading to a systemic weakening of American influence and an increase in global instability.” – Phil Butler

Geopolitics of the Third World War – “American hegemony or multipolarity. Many analysts are now advancing the hypothesis that the Third World War has already begun and that we are in its first stage. Whether this is so or not will become clear in the near future, but for now let us assume the validity of this hypothesis and attempt to survey its geopolitical contours. The essence of the Third World War lies in a radical transformation of the entire architecture of world politics. The international institutions that exist today have long ceased to correspond to the real state of affairs.” – Alexander Dugin

On The Failure Of Shock And Awe In Iran – “Russia also succumbed to the idea of the shock and awe doctrine. After the war with Georgia in 2008, the Russian military was restructured to carry out rapid and destructive military interventions. However, Russia was the first to stumble on this doctrine. In spring 2022, it faced a critical choice: Either fight a serious, bloody war of attrition or settle for a disgraceful peace. Moscow chose war, and the Ukraine conflict has now entered its fifth year. Trump now finds himself at a similar crossroads: Fight or to concede defeat. The problem is that the entire Western military-industrial complex has spent decades adapting to the shock and awe doctrine; NATO and the US possess unparalleled and exorbitantly expensive airstrike capabilities, but don’t have many other resources. If a targeted nation can withstand the initial air assaults, time will be on its side – unlike Russia, the West lacks the resources for a prolonged military campaign.” – Moon of Alabama

The Horror of Another Week In Washington -‘“Boots on the Ground” coming next but that’s not all.The past week has seen the usual mixture of developments flowing from the United States government that make one either want to laugh or cry. On the humor side, though with more than a bit of extreme disgust, there are the latest moves by the megalomaniac-in-chief in the White House to slap his name and picture all across the nation and even on maps depicting the rest of the world. His latest foray was to drop into an otherwise innocuous speech a suggestion that he might be renaming the much-in-the-news Strait of Hormuz after himself, suggesting he might be calling it the Strait of Trump after the US takes it away from the Iranians. ” – PhilipGiraldi

Over 3,500 US Troops Arrive In Middle East As Houthis Enter War – “” – Tyler Durden

CNN Attacked by IDF – “Dramatic moment CNN journalist is put in CHOKEHOLD by armed Israeli soldiers before news crew is detained” – Laura Acton-Taylor  – SURE GLAD WE ARE FIGHTING FOR ISRAEL, AREN’T  YOU!!!!

Essential US AWACS Plane Destroyed Amidst New Iranian Attacks, as US Continues Losing Critical Capability in Region – “USS Tripoli has finally arrived in the CENTCOM region, which presumably means somewhere in the northern Arabian Sea. Given that the Lincoln was said to have scurried away to a 1,000km distance, we can only assume the Tripoli will keep a similar range away from Iranian missiles while Trump continues to bide his time with his weak-handed bluffs. In the meantime, US losses have mounted in the region. Today came the following announcements: Saudi Arabian Prince Sultan Airbase was hit with many US KC-135s damaged and destroyed:” – Simplicius

FAILING TO DEFEAT HEZBOLLAH, ISRAEL & US PRESSURE SYRIA’S AHMED AL-SHARAA TO JOIN WAR – “penly declaring its intent to illegally occupy southern Lebanon, Israel finds itself in a costly ground battle with Hezbollah, from which there are indications Syria may soon be roped in. This is born from the understanding that in order to successfully weaken the Lebanese resistance, the Israeli military must penetrate the Bekaa Valley area. Understanding the costly price of attempting to physically take all of south Lebanon militarily, both Washington and Tel Aviv have been attempting to devise strategies that would help achieve Israel’s war goals of weakening Hezbollah. One possible option that has been placed on the table is the use of Syria’s military to invade Lebanon’s border and attack Hezbollah, aiming to go after what is labelled critical infrastructure belonging to the Lebanese group. According to reports, the US Trump administration has directly put pressure on Syrian leader Ahmed al-Shara’a to do just that.” – Robert Inlakesh

Battle for Hungary: EU attacks on Orban are a sign of worse things to come – “Brussels ‘elites’ are displaying an unbroken will to power over what we are allowed to think, say, and vote for” – Tarik Cyril Amar

New estimates claim Spain could legalize nearly 1.6 million migrants, despite evidence of highly disproportionate violent crimes – “A December report found that foreigners make up 31 percent of Spain’s prison population, commit per capita 500 percent more rapes and 414 percent more murders than Spanish citizens” – Remix News Staff

An “Islamic NATO” Is Still In The Cards – “It would revolutionize MENA (Middle East-North Africa ) security even if it’s only a consultative platform, but whether it truly stabilizes this broad region or inadvertently further destabilizes it would remain to be seen.” – Andrew Korybko

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Jar Farming for Dummies – “After one month of dropping bombs and launching missiles at Iran, Trump has called for a time out. Month one, by and large, was nothing. The impacts to the average person were mainly limited to sticker shock at the gas pump. Brent crude briefly spiked above $120 a barrel, and everyone’s 401(k) took a modest nosedive. Month two, however, is when things really start to get serious. That’s when higher prices are met with physical shortages. The next 30 days are the real make or break moment for the global economy.” – MN Gordon

$100 Oil Is Solving Russia’s Budget Problem – Charles Kennedy

I’m Sorry, But The Fed Has Run Out Of Road – “There is no painless option left. It’s deflationary depression or crippling inflation. There is a special kind of denial that only financial markets can sustain. It is the quiet insistence that everything is fine because the S&P is only down about 10%, as if that number alone captures the health of an entire financial system. It is the belief that until equities are in full free fall, nothing truly serious can be happening underneath. But as we know, underneath, things are already starting to break. That is the part people are not fully appreciating.” – Quoth the Raven

US Dollar Demand Soars: Dedollarization Was a Fabrication of the Bull Market – ““De-dollarization” was a major market story in 2024 and 2025, not because it was true, but because it sounded plausible enough to scare people out of the most in-demand assets. The reality was much simpler. The US dollar remains the world’s global reserve currency because there is no fiat alternative.” – Daniel Lacalle  – DANIEL MAY BE RIGHT ON THAT POINT, BUT BESIDE OTHER FIAT CURRENCYM THERE’S ALWAYS GOD AND SILVER AND PERHAPS BITCOIN!!

Big Questions: Is There Enough Gold For a Gold Standard? – “To sum up, there’s plenty of gold for a gold standard. The government just has to price the metal correctly.” – John Rubino

Tokenization: Fannie Mae Partners With Coinbase To Allow Crypto And Stablecoin Payments For Home Loans And Mortgages – “What could go wrong? This is what I have been warning would happen to housing for some time..I have repeatedly said that tokenization would be introduced to unlock the housing market because tokenization allows for “fractional ownership,” the ability to split assets into multiple pieces and digital contracts. Coinbase and Fannie Mae have just offered that. Moreover, the language used by Coinbase is the same language we have heard BlackRock CEO and World Economic Forum co-chair Larry Fink use to describe tokenization — the talk of updating the “plumbing” of the financial system and the so-called “new physics of money.” ” – The WinePress

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Empires Don’t Collapse From War Alone… They Finally Collapse When The Food Runs Out – “Now here’s the part that actually matters. Because while global systems may be fragile, individual households don’t have to be. In fact, this is where small, practical steps start to carry real weight. First, building a food buffer isn’t extreme—it’s historical common sense. Families that had reserves have always weathered disruptions better than those that didn’t. Then, reducing dependence on imported inputs becomes critical.” – Bill Heid

How to Grow and Care for Raspberries – Shelby Deering

Seniors Won’t Survive Without This in a Crisis – Ask a Prepper

White Mildew on Plants – “How do I treat powdery mildew? Powdery mildew fungi have characteristics that help them prevail in late summer, when plants often are too tired to defend themselves. While most fungi only can spread when leaf surfaces are damp, powdery mildew fungi can blow about on humid winds, land on a dry leaf, and promptly gain access by melting cell walls with special enzymes. If they are successful, an outbreak is visible in less than a week.” – Barbara Pleasant

VERSE FOR THE DAY

Zechariah 9:9    Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK  (USED BEFORE)

I used to watch “Highway Patrol”
Whittlin’ with my knife
But the thought never struck me
I’d be black and white for life
I was raised on law and order
I a community of strife
Became a restless boarder
And I never took a wife.

I went lookin’ for Khaddafi
Aboard Air Force One
But I never did find him
And the C.I.A. said Son,
You’ll never be a hero
Your flyin’ days are done
It’s time for you to go home now
Stop sniffin’ that smokin’ gun.

I was travellin’ with my family
In the Mideast late one night
In the hotel all was quiet
The kids were out like little lights
Then the street was filled with jeeps
There was an explosion to the right
They chanted “Death to America”
I was feelin’ like a fight.

So I ran downstairs
And out into the street
Someone kicked me in the belly
Someone else kissed my feet
I was Rambo in the disco
I was shootin’ to the beat
When they burned me in effigy
My vacation was complete.

( Mideast Vacation by Neil Young )

THE BIG PICTURE

There Is Hope for Your Moment of Change – “It’s called your “and then” moment. If you are going through a time where you feel life is too heavy, too hard, or too much, don’t give up. The Bible contains numerous examples of people who experienced times of testing or preparation just before a single moment changed their lives forever. It’s called the “and then” moment.” – Kate Dreston

Collapse of US Agriculture – “The American Southwest has entered a state of terminal hydrological collapse. The mountain snowpack that sustains the region has failed pushing American agriculture toward a potential disaster in 2026. This high-altitude frozen reservoir is currently at its lowest level in recorded history, signaling an immediate crisis for the 40 million people and the vast industrial complex dependent on the Colorado River. This is a structural shift in the region’s ability to support human life and economic activity. This regional water crisis collides with a global energy and fertilizer shock. Following Operation Epic Fury, Iran effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz, trapping 20 percent of the world’s oil, LNG, and approximately one-third of the world’s seaborne fertilizer. The loss of natural gas impacts fertilizer production globally. The loss of 50 percent of the world’s seaborne sulfur hurts phosphate fertilizer production.” – Sarah Connor – AND FOR THOSE WHO MAKE FUN OF PREPPERS, THIS IS JUST ONE OF THE REASONS PEOPLE PREP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mysterious trading patterns follow Trump into war – Zachary Basu  – NOTHING TO SEE HERE,FOLKS.  MOVE ALONG!!!!!

White House scrambles to downplay shockingly well-timed bets – “Huge bets keep surfacing on prediction platforms right before President Trump jolts the markets with surprise announcements—but the White House insists there is nothing to see here.” – Tom Latchem  – AS I SAID, MOVE ALONG. OH, AND WHERE WERE THE ARTICLES ABIUT PELOSI, WHEN HER HUBBY WAS DOING THE SAME THING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is The World Ready For A Global Energy Catastrophe And A Global Food Catastrophe At The Same Time? – Michael Snyder

After the Epstein Files, It’s Become All But Impossible To Believe He Killed Himself – “It’s time to talk about the ultimate Epstein conspiracy theory” – Tom Elliott

Unproven in the Field: Terrana’s RNA “Plant Vaccines” Deserve Serious Scrutiny – “World Economic Forum contributor Noubar Afeyan, the billionaire who co-founded Moderna, has launched a company that plans to use “the language of nature to give plants new instructions.” Called Terrana Biosciences, the company will manipulate the vast ecosystem of self-replicating RNAs from across the plant world, rewriting them with unique instructions to make any desired trait and solve problems at any point in the plant’s lifecycle. Terrana—launched last July by Flagship Pioneering (the folks behind Moderna)—is all about “native” RNA-based tweaks for crops.” – Tracy Beanz & Michelle Edwards

Palantir And Nvidia Partner To Deliver Sovereign AI Operating Systems For Governments And Datacenters – “In a radical co-design of sovereign AI, we are proud to introduce: The Palantir Sovereign AI Operating System Reference Architecture with NVIDIA” – The WinePress

Pfizer to seek FDA approval for Lyme disease vaccine candidate despite trial miss – “Pfizer said not enough people contracted Lyme disease to be confident in the results, but cited “strong efficacy” for its decision to move forward. Partner Valneva has said the Lyme disease shot could reach annual peak sales of more than $1 billion.” – Angelica Peebles

IF I WAS MOSSAD… – “Today, Laura Loomer as acting director of the US Mossad, has warned that Israel will commit a false flag operation in the US imminently with ten times the destruction and casualties as the Twin Towers… Of course, she inserted, Iran for Israel, but we all know who is the false flag maker of coups, destruction and death for the past 60 years. And yet every single US President is shocked by Islamic terrorism. Shocked, I say! IF I was Mossad – what American city and structure would I bomb to realize the most casualties? In March, Larry Silverstein acquired ownership of the US Bank Tower in LA and bought ‘terrorism risk insurance’. World Trade Center leaseholder Larry Silverstein “fortuitously” took out terrorism insurance just months before the 9/11. He received $4.557Billion from the insurance. He bought the building for $3.2 billion 2 months before the attack. Appreciation is a bitch.” – Helena Glass – NOTHING TO SEE HERE THOUGH!!!

FOOD CRISIS BEGINS: Supply chain already being affected by US/Israel-Iran war, and guess who’s ready to step in and profit with fake-meat alternative proteins? – “Bill Gates and the state of Israel have a plan to feed the world when WWIII-driven famine hits and people can no longer afford to buy dwindling supplies of meat, fish, etc.” – Leo Hohmann

Exclusive: ICE’s Bounty Hunters – “Leaked database shows how ICE pays off local cops to do their bidding. While ICE agents are temporarily confusing things even more at airports, behind the scenes the Trump administration is paying a posse of local police to carry out its immigration war.” – Ken Klippenstein

 

 

 

NEWS

Chaos, War, and Murder Continue in the Face of a Failed U.S. Empire – “We are in the middle of hell in this now heinous authoritarian country called America. To not see this or act against it, is pure pathetic madness. It is as if everything going on here is like living in a giant national Hollywood soap opera; a cesspool to be sure. The difference of course, is that this mess is real, regardless of the actors pretending to be ‘leaders’ of this totalitarian governing system. Can any even imagine all that is going on at once, while ‘Rome’ burns to the ground?” – Gary D. Barnett

The American Rubicon – “If one sought to identify the quintessential “government” agency, it would be difficult to improve upon “the TSA” as your choice. consider: TSA is a relatively recent institution created a scant 45 days after the 9/11 attack and a month before that ghastly exemplar of DC naming inversion “the Patriot Act” came to be. Prior to TSA, airports ran their own security and “security lines” were basically not a thing. “Thus began the misery of TSA and shoe removal and let me count the ounces of your shampoo and long lines with gropers and annoyances at the front most of whom just seem to be milling around to no good purpose in an overstaffed pantomime of security theater. – El Gato Malo

The Problem Isn’t “Kings”, The Problem Is US Presidents – “The problem is US presidents, not kings. The problem is the US empire, not Trump. The United States needs drastic, revolutionary change, not daytime protests designed to be as inoffensive as possible” – Caitlin Johnstone

Patriotic Purge: The Real Cost of War – “Fighting for corruption and profits. War has never made the lives of the common people any better, with the exception of our fight for independence and the War of 1812, in which our shores were attacked. It has padded the pockets of those who were already rich, and paved the way for new fortunes for those willing to sell their souls. WWI introduced deadly globalism to the world. WWII made the world safe for communism and Zionism.” – Donald Jeffries

Mercy, Forgiveness, Peace – “In Trump’s America, a lot of words have gone out of style. Words like compassion, generosity, forgiveness, grace, mercy, and especially peace. “Punch ‘em when they’re down” Hegseth symbolizes the fake-tough-guy attitude of Trump and crew.” – Bill Astore

Iran Can’t Accept Trump’s Absurd ‘Plan’ I- “f the reported details are correct, the so-called plan includes many of the same unrealistic and maximalist demands that the administration has been making for the last year. – Daniel Larison

Strategic Failure: Trump’s Contradictory Iran Strategy Unravels – “US President Donald Trump appears to be continually backtracking and/or contradicting himself on his various announcements regarding Iran. While his rhetoric attempts to project dominance, the administration’s actions reflect a state of crisis and suggest that it is being forced to back down.” – Robert Inlakesh

The European Union Hates Hungary, Loves Ukraine – “The EU discards members, protects non-members. While the E.U. and NATO fight Russian authoritarianism by protecting Ukrainian authoritarianism, both institutions have remained relatively quiet as member states sustain actual attacks.” – J.B. Shurk

Destruction of America – “Our country stands on the brink of…well, something. And something bad. I won’t pretend to know precisely just how bad, but I know it won’t be mild. What I’m talking about are two different parts of the Democrats’ current play in Congress. In particular, the current shutdown of DHS and the SAVE Act. These two things shouldn’t look like they have anything to do with one another, at least on the surface, but you don’t have to dig too deeply to see where the connection is. Both involve Democrats trying to protect illegal aliens—I hate the term, personally, but I refuse to allow the left to pretend illegals are just immigrants and equate them with those who followed the rules to come here—and both need to be dealt with if we want to step away from the brink.’ – Tom Knighton

Biden White House COVID Stroke Cover-Up Exposed – “A Pattern of Institutional Deception Finally Revealed in Stunning New Email Revelations” – Sayer Ji

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Delusions, Magic Tricks, and Resistance – “Secretary of War Tats Pete Hegseth announced that the Administration will be seeking $200 billion more from American taxpayers to insure that the ongoing imperial catastrophe in the Middle East has the necessary funding to be the Most Colossal Catastrophe in History because Donald Trump and Israel deserve nothing less. BBC is practically salivating at the prospect of 5000 US Marines invading Kharg Island, Iran. OK, let’s look at Kharg Island.The Marines would have to be supplied by sea. Note the Strait of Hormuz to the right. US Navy ships carrying those supplies, not to mention the Marines themselves, would have to run a gauntlet of Iranian missiles. Or they can try supplying them by air, you know, like the French did at Dien Bien Phu. I’m pretty sure the Iranians have heard of that one.” – Ohio Barbarian – THE BARBARIAN’S WEEKLY RECAP, GOOD AS USUAL!!!

It Is Being Reported That 1 Million People Have Been Displaced From Lebanon In Just Weeks, As Massive Bombings From IDF Decimate Entire Towns. – Celia Farber

Is Cuba Next? (VIDEO) with Mario Braga – “The Trump Administration is now openly saying it may “take Cuba next”. What does that mean? What would it look like? And why does the US want to do this?” – Adam Taggart | Thoughtful Money®

Where will the winds take Cuba? – Cuba can still be categorized as a socialist system, but it is already far removed from any orthodox, Marxist conception of “communism.” Despite Cuba’s historical resilience, a product of its revolutionary experience, we have already witnessed that, in the long term, embargoes and sanctions can undermine the willpower of leadership and the population. Furthermore, let us remember, the generation in power in Cuba is no longer the revolutionary generation.” – Raphael Machado

Why Won’t Pam Bondi Release ALL Epstein Files? – “Operation “Epstein Fury” in Iran is the greatest misdirection trick ever performed.” – John Leake

American Girl—Yes, the Doll Company—Is Promoting Hijabs – “I’m on my knees thanking the Lord that my babies are grown. Because it’s entirely possible they would have asked for the American Girl Eid a-Fitr Celebration Outfit for their birthdays—the thing comes with a hot pink rhinestone-studded headscarf, for crying out loud,” – Jenna McCarthy  – WHILE JENNA COMPLAINS ABOUT AN ISLAMIC OUTFIT THAT CELEBRATES A MUSLIM HOLIDAY, KEEP IN MIND THEY HAVE A ZIONIST OUTFIT FOR HANUKKAH AS WELL FOR THE AMERICAN GIRL DOLL. AND OTHER CULTURAL HOLIDAYS AS WELL. I DON’T RECALL HER COMPLAINING ABOUT THOSE OUTFITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Lasting Political Solution To The Afghan-Pakistani War Is Extremely Unlikely – “Neither wants to submit to the other’s polar opposite demands on the three issues central to their security dilemma, Afghanistan is incapable of conquering Pakistan, and Pakistan won’t accept the enormous costs that overthrowing the Taliban and indefinitely occupying Afghanistan would entail.” – Andrew Korybko

There Goes the Spring Selling Season: Mortgage Rates Jump, Mortgage Applications to Purchase a Home Drop – “Mortgage purchase applications are down by 35% from the same period in 2019 in a housing market that remains frozen.” – Wolf Richter

The Greatest Economic Crash Ever – “The “greatest economy ever,” as the king and all the king’s men (and women) keep calling it, is creating the greatest private-credit crisis ever. A crisis that is increasingly being described as something that could rapidly achieve critical mass like the Great Financial Crisis did keeps blowing up relentlessly. Today, yet another private credit fund that holds investments in many issuers of private credit, jumped on the heap of those that have already been throttling back on how much investors can withdraw from their funds in order to prevent an account-draining rush down the sewers of corporate history. Apollo Global Management became the latest shadow bank to cap redemptions from one its biggest private credit funds” – David Haggith

Recession odds climb on Wall Street as economy shows cracks beneath the surface – “Economists have pulled up their risk assessments of a U.S. contraction amid heightened uncertainty over geopolitical risk and a labor market that for the past year has shown strains.” – Jeff Cox

Singapore Dealers Upping Inventory as Gold Demand Remains Strong – Mike Maharrey

Why Silver Is Doing What It Shouldn’t – “Really?!? Silver is doing everything wrong. War risk is rising, inflation isn’t dead, and global instability is spreading. Under normal conditions, silver should be ripping higher. Instead, it drops — and that contradiction is the entire story. When markets stop making sense, they start sending signals. Most investors think silver is malfunctioning. It isn’t. This is a deliberate stress test designed to shake out weak conviction and force bad decisions at the worst possible time. The market’s job is to make you quit right before the move.” – Kerry Lutz

Silver’s Violent Liquidation: Is the Bottom In? (VIDEO) with Guru David Morgan – ” After silver hit a massive high of $120 earlier this year, it saw a violent 50% retracement. David explains the mechanics of this “liquidation phase,” the role of the futures market, and why he believes a massive supply-demand squeeze is still on the horizon.” – Financial Survival Network

How to Source “Real Food” if You Can’t Grow it Yourself, – “Have you ever (unkindly) thought “they could afford to lose some weight” when witnessing someone purchasing groceries with SNAP benefits? Do you want to know why there are so many obese people in our country? They aren’t over-eating. They are purchasing the cheapest available foods, which are highly processed, low in nutritional value, and high in calories.” – Sara Sue

Hardening Without Advertising: Making Your Property Less Appealing Without Looking Like a Fortress – “There’s a quiet mistake many people make when they begin taking security seriously. They build strength—but they also build attention. Tall fences. Cameras everywhere. Warning signs. Reinforced doors that look like they belong on a bunker. It all works… until it doesn’t. Because while you’re making your property harder to break into, you may also be sending a different message:” – denob

7 SHTF Reasons Why Sunflowers Are a Multi-Purpose Prep – “Sunflower seeds are often overlooked for long-term preparedness goals. It’s a small seed, so it’s understandable.

THE BIG PICTURE

The Stealing of America: You’re Not a Citizen—You’re a Revenue Stream for the Power Elite – “You’re not imagining it. Everything costs more. Everything is monitored. Everything feels like it’s designed to take—from your wallet, your time, your freedom. That’s because it is. The government has turned everyday life into a revenue stream—funding endless wars, bloated agencies, surveillance systems, and profit-driven policing… all on your dime. You’re not just paying taxes. You’re paying to be watched. Paying to be policed. Paying to be controlled. This isn’t government. It’s a business model.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

What Will You Do When There Is No Food? – “I wrote and published this article on April 5, 2022, 4 years ago. What I wrote then about what was happening at the time, and what was coming in the future, is exactly what is happening now; only much faster and at a much more advanced pace. While I was looking at this from multiple perspectives, and of course at the time, we were in the midst of the fake ’covid’ hoax, which was being used in much the same way as the so-called Iran war is being used today,” – Gary D. Barnett   – LINKED GARY’S ARTICLE THEN AND IT WAS WORTH READING THEN AS IT IS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are You Holding a Weapon of War in Your Hand? Short answer: yes. Long answer: also yes, but slightly more complicated. – “And just to make things extra efficient for the cyber intruders, we’ve layered AI on top of all of it, so instead of being forced to painstakingly review footage for weeks, now anyone can just… search it. Instantly. People, patterns, vehicles, routines—pulled up like you’re summoning a restaurant reservation. The issue isn’t that cameras exist. At this point, that ship has sailed, circled back, and installed three more cameras on itself. The issue is that once the system is in place—once everything is recorded, stored, and searchable—you don’t get to decide who ultimately accesses it.” – Jenna McCarthy  – YOUR CAMERA SPIES ON YOU, YOUR CAR CAN TOO AND EVEN YOUR APPLIANCES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Government Knew: Declassified Documents Link Lyme Disease to U.S. Bioweapons Program – “282,800 radioactive ticks released across Virginia. A suppressed second pathogen. A 60-year cover-up. ” – Justin Hart

The Food Supply Chain Is Breaking. Again – “Spring has sprung, which means seeds that were planted in late winter are starting to germinate. They’re hungry and will only grow to their full nutritional potential if they’re well fed. But that, apparently, isn’t happening, as fertilizer supplies are interrupted by yet another pointless Middle East war. The result? Global food shortages that might dwarf the COVID-era Costco-hoarding mess of recent memory. Here’s an overview:” – John Rubino

Iran War Disaster: Planned Energy Lockdowns and Global Famine? – Dr. Joseph Sansone

Who stands to benefit most from US/Israel war on Iran? Globalists waiting in wings with their Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development and digital control grid – “Everything from greater restrictions on air and auto travel to clamp downs on speech and press freedoms is on the table as the world grapples with global energy crisis triggered by Trump’s war.” – Leo Hohmann

Energy lockdowns Down Under? Calls for ‘Covid-style’ rules as fuel crisis escalates – “The spectre of lockdowns 2.0 looms as an Australian Premier has called for “Covid-style” rules to manage the escalating fuel crisis sparked by the war in Iran. New South Wales leader Chris Minns — whom Matt Taibbi once called “Australia’s biggest wanker” over his enthusiastic support for hate speech laws — yesterday said a “nationally consistent approach” was needed to implement measures such as fuel rationing and working from home.” – Rebekah Barnett

The Real Epstein Story: Eugenics, Cloning, Genetic Engineering, Transhumanism, and Directed Evolution What if Jeffrey Epstein’s darkest crimes weren’t the ones you’ve heard about—but the ones buried in “science”? We did the research, and the truth is almost unbelievable.- “Jeffrey Epstein was more than just a perverted Deep State operative; he was a critical player in some of the Insiders’ most horrific agendas. Buried within the millions of pages of Epstein documents released so far is evidence of something even darker and more monstrous than the crimes now starting to come to light.” – Alex Newman

We should prepare for another Covid lie – the claim Covid, not the “vaccines,” caused the embalmers’ clots. – Bill Rice Jr.

Were the unvaccinated treated (literally, as well as statistically) differently from the vaccinated? – Jonathan Engler

The United States Of Apathy. Everyone Has Become Dead To Events And Anything Evil Around Them – “There have been so many times, so many days I seriously asked myself and asked God why I am doing all this labor to report on this stuff? To warn the people around me that could care absolutely less and are willfully ignorant to everything? I think that’s been probably the greatest burden and discouraging thing for me is witnessing how it seems no one around us cares.” – The WinePress  – I HAVE FELT THIS WAY A TIME OR TWO MYSELF WHILE DOING THIS WEBSITE.

NEWS

The End Of The Islamic Republic: Chaos Reigns – “Nobody Knows How This War Will End. Yesterday morning came the news that President Trump and the Iranians were “talking”, leading Trump to postpone any deliberate targeting of the Iranian power grid. Such has been the chaos of Operation Epic Fury over the past few days, whipsawing from the fallout of war, to major escalation, to possibly a chance for peace. How this war ends is not merely unknown, it is completely unknowable.” – Peter Nayland Kust

The US’ Attempted Capture Of Kharg Island Would Be The Ultimate Gamble – “The US will have lost the Third Gulf War if China can still rely on Iran as a reliable low-cost energy supplier while turning the yuan into a global reserve currency that challenges the petrodollar.” – Andrew Korybko

Surprise, Surprise, Surprise! The World Got Trumped Again! – “It would appear Iran’s counter-threat hit Trump in the rump like a Shahab-3 missile suppository. As soon as Trump saw that his big threat fell on deaf ears, he found a way to chicken out of his bluff today by telling the nation the US and Iran had held “productive” talks; therefore, he is going to delay destruction of Iran’s power plants for five days to see where the talks go.Iran didn’t let him get away with that face-saving move and called his claim of “productive” talks “fake news.” That didn’t matter, though, because Trump’s assurances had already achieved their purpose. This was a TACO Trade that worked to perfection. ” – David Haggith

TRUMP LIED – 2500 Marines and 3 Warships Heading to Kharg Island For Friday Arrival – ” Trump says he has brokered a cease fire for five days. Israel is bombing Iran’s infrastructure. Meanwhile a rabid Wall Street gyrates with every Trump statement. There are three possible reasons for Trump’s lie:” – Helena Glass

Leaked Document: Iran War Meets Little Brother – “Info about the war is being censored — with the help of private companies” – Ken Klippenstein

Echos of Gallipoli? Hormuz and the Geography of Hubris – “In a naval chokepoint, always bet on the shore over the ship. The lesson for any modern planner looking at Hormuz is not to doubt American firepower, but to respect the defender’s will, the terrain’s tyranny, and the multiplying effect of asymmetric technology. ” – Ashes of Pompeii

Strait Of Hormuz Closure Brings Empire To Brink – “In all, approximately 11% of global maritime trade passes through the Strait annually, accounting for 20% of the world’s total oil supply. Iran’s blockade, coupled with Resistance strikes on refineries throughout the region, will cause lasting chaos in energy markets and impact availability for years to come. Yet, despite a preponderant mainstream focus on the implications of the Strait’s closure for oil and gas, many vital commodities underpinning the operation of major industries worldwide also regularly transit through in substantial quantities. Approximately one third of the world’s seaborne fertilizer supply passes through the Strait every year. Many farmers are already operating without profit, and grave concerns about how long this can be sustained widely proliferate. ” – Kit Klarenberg

Lessons About the Middle East from an Old Globe – “What will the “Middle East” look like in 100 years?” – Bill Astore

Rubio Is Impressive, DeSantis Is Formidable, but Vance Is the Future of the GOP – Alexander Muse

Markwayne Mullin confirmed as DHS secretary with support from two Democrats – Ramsey Touchberry

 

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

The Iran war spills over into the U.S. economy: Inflation rises and growth slows – “Mideast conflict spawns fresh uncertainty, S&P finds, just as tariff worries recede – Jeffry Bartash

The Bull Market Is Over — And the MAG-7 Pulled the Trigger – “Put simply, this bull market was driven primarily by the MAG-7. And while much of this performance was driven by actual results, it’s critical to note the impact that investor enthusiasm played, particularly in regard to the MAG-7 build out of AI-infrastructure. As I noted earlier, MAG-7 profits roughly doubled between 2022 and 2025. However, MAG-7 share prices TRIPLED over the same period. This multiple expansion (when investors are willing to pay MORE for growth) was driven by investor enthusiasm for the potential of AI: the MAG-7 were and remain the key players engaged in the AI-infrastructure buildout.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Risk and Privilege – “As systemic risks rise, what matters is the thickness of one’s buffers against bad things happening. Those with wealth, power and privilege have sea walls, the rest of us have crumbling sand castles.” – Charles Hugh Smith

Collapsing COMEX Open Interest: Gold And Silver Price Analysis – “Betraying the notion that it is overrun by “speculators” and exacerbating the daily volatility, total contract open interest in COMEX gold and silver has collapsed to levels not seen in over a decade. What, if anything, does this signal for price in the short term? Of course, for now, the only thing that matters to price is the trend in the geopolitical headlines. As long as war and strife continue to dominate the narrative, precious metal prices look to remain pressured. The narrative is that higher energy costs will lead to inflation, higher interest rates, and a rising U.S. dollar. Those factors combine into a stew that has led to selling in gold and silver nearly every single day since the war began three weeks ago.” – Craig Hemke

$580 million in oil bets placed moments before Trump’s Iran post – FT – “The highly concentrated flurry in Brent and WTI futures could signal possible insider knowledge that triggered a sell-off, the outlet has suggested” -RT

Moody’s cuts rating on private credit fund run by KKR and Future Standard to junk as bad loans grow – “Moody’s said the fund’s underlying asset quality had worsened more than its peers. Non-accrual loans, meaning loans that borrowers have stopped making payments on, climbed to 5.5% of total investments at the end of 2025, one of the highest rates among rated business development companies, according to the report.” – Hugh Son

$5+ Diesel Could Unleash Inflationary Mindset the Fed Better Not “Look Through.” Inflation Was already Hot before Iran War – “When this inflationary mindset takes off, inflation becomes like a runaway train.” – Wolf Richter

Canning Bread in Jars: Step by Step Instructions – “Home canning bread is a clever way to bake small loaves directly in glass jars for longer storage. It is simple to make and tastes amazing. This version uses spelt flour, mixed grains, apple cider vinegar, and yeast to create a soft, flavorful bread that is baked right in the jar, sealed while hot, then processed again for longer keeping.” – Heidi Hawthorn

ow to Convert a Natural Gas Stove to Propane (Step-by-Step Guide) – “Natural gas is a convenience that most people never think twice about. Turn the knob, the burner lights, dinner gets made.

You clean the wound, maybe get a prescription, and move on. But remove timely care, antibiotics, and sterile environments—and even a minor injury becomes a serious threat.” – denob

THE BIG PICTURE

Disconnect from the Bullsh*t (VIDEO) – Pat Mac  – GOOD ONE. SHORT AND TO THE POINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reclaiming Sanity in an Insane World – “Stop looking for truth in the noise” – Sarah Connor  – GOOD READ FROM SARAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Civilization Is Under Massive Strain, and Every Week The War Goes on, Its Going to Get Worse” – “Things are getting very real very fast. For several reasons, it is fair to say that WWIII has already started, meaning the entire world is being affected, though it’s not just a fighting war. It is an energy war, we have a full-out vaccine war, a money and debt war, and a fertilizer problem, which is looking every day more and more like a food crisis we do not even want to think about.” – Dr.Sircus

Spain’s New “Hate and Polarisation Footprint” Has a Strong Whiff of Totalitarianism – “One of the hallmarks of totalitarian regimes is the conversion of political rulers into unquestionable authorities on truth and falsehood and virtue and vice. Instead of concerning themselves with external actions that palpably disrupt public order or attack basic rights like property and bodily integrity, totalitarian rulers use all the means at their disposal to school citizens on the right and wrong sorts of attitudes, beliefs and speech to adopt in their everyday life. In short, government becomes the policeman not only of public order, but of social and personal morality.” – David Thunder

Chaos, Walkouts, and 95% Failure Rates: The Case Against the TSA Is Now Undeniable – “Why the Democrat Funding Freeze Should Be the TSA’s Last Act. It is the third shutdown in less than six months that has forced the officers who screen airport passengers and luggage to keep working without pay. Each episode has compounded the damage. Each episode has revealed more starkly the fragility baked into this model. And each episode has made the same question more unavoidable: why are we doing this at all? Federalizing screeners was a non-sequitur solution to a wholly different problem. That foundational error has now had twenty-five years to metastasize.” – Alexander Muse

The First Heatwave of the Year… and the Same Old Narrative – “How long term temperature records challenge the climate narrative” – Dr. Matthew Wielicki

Insane in the membrane – getting ahead of the meningitis fear curve – “Don’t just get in line like you did last time, please. So lots of cases of meningitis in temporal proximity to vaccination and many were linked to other vaccines as well. Considering there are absolutely no studies done on counter-indications with regard to pumping young people full of so many vaccines, this doesn’t come as a surprise to me. The current meningococcal (meningitis) vaccines on the market in the U.S. as of March 22, 2026 are Menveo, MenQuadfi, Bexsero, Trumenba, Penbraya, Penmenvy. The ones most associated with AEs in VAERS is Bexsero and Trumenba.” – Jessica Rose

Epstein COVER-UP Deepens; FBI Officers Raise Alarm – “Bags of SHREDDED DOCUMENTS destroyed at NY jail days after his death” – Steve Watson

 

 

 

NEWS

Workers and Consumers Are the Last of Their Concerns – “Surprise, the Oligarchs Come First, Second, and Last. President Trump’s senior economic adviser said the quiet part out loud: the U.S. economy is fundamentally healthy for the richest, the owners, the oligarchs. The Iran War shouldn’t threaten them; indeed, it may enrich them. But the war will hurt consumers and workers—and that is the last and least of the Trump administration’s concerns. There you have it. Corporations are our new citizens. And you? If you’re lucky, you get to make a choice: consumer, warrior or prisoner. Which will it be?” – Bill Astore

This is complete strategic incoherence. – “We are being led to the abyss by a madman who is pulling ideas out of his ass hour by hour and posting them on social media. Generals and Admirals need to start resigning. I say this as someone who voted for Trump 3X, went to rallies, and drove 11 hours to attend J-6 in person.” – Matt Bracken on X

Trump calls off strikes on Iranian energy – “The US president has ordered the Department of War to postpone attacks on such facilities after “productive” talks with Tehran” -RT

Iran’s state news agency rejects Trump’s claim of ‘constructive conversations’ – “‘There is no direct contact with Trump, not even through intermediaries’ — Fars News citing a source ‘Trump backed off after hearing that our targets would be all power plants in West Asia'” – RT on X

Trump’s bombardment of fake news so far is working quite well. But where is it heading? – “Despite all the hype from U.S. media, it is important to stress that Trump has not yet acted. The real worry here is how naïve and frankly stupid Americans are, as one option that Trump has, other than using nuclear weapons in Iran, is creating a false flag attack on U.S. home soil. Not only would that allow him to announce a ’state of war’ which would justify cancelling the midterms, but it would also force EU countries and Japan to ramp up their ’free hugs’ policy to a whole new level. Free hugs are not free, by the way.” – Martin Jay

Trump’s Desperate Search for an “Exit Strategy” – “How does one create an exit strategy from a trap of one’s own making, which has resulted from miscalculation, hubris and blunders, while bringing the world closer to nuclear war, and still put a positive spin on what is recognized by most as a humiliating defeat for oneself? This is the task now facing President Donald Trump, as his decision to ally with the sociopathic war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu to start a war against Iran has backfired. ” – Harley Schlanger

Final Escalatory Act Awaits as Iran and Israel Trade ‘Warning Shots’ on Each Other’s Nuke Plants – “For those who thought the war could not “heat up” even more after Israel’s provocation against Iran’s largest gas field, it has apparently entered its final decisive act. After the failure of the main operational phase, wherein the US-Israeli hydra was rebuffed from inflicting any kind of decisive military defeat on Iran, we have come to the logical conclusion, where now threats of existential devastation against critical civilian infrastructure have reached the last escalatory rung.” – Simplicius

Trump: Open Hormuz Strait or Face Bombed Power Plants – “Trump was asked if he had ordered the bombing of desalination plants. He responded by saying Iranians “are among the most evil people ever on earth, they cut babies’ heads off, they chop women in half, what they did, take a look at October 7th… I know nothing about a desalination plant other than to say if they’re complaining about a desalination plant, we complain about the fact that they shouldn’t be chopping babies’ heads off, okay?” There is no evidence Iran had anything to do with the October 7. There is absolutely zero evidence they chopped off the heads of babies. Trump’s off-the-cuff remark is yet another preposterous and evidence-free allegation, but then that’s Trump. Increasingly, he makes statements that are obviously false and often nonsensical. He knows a large number of MAGA cultists will believe what he says, no matter how grotesque and implausible. Iran will launch its now largely unstoppable ballistic missiles at Israel’s civilian infrastructure, and it will do the same in Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE, and Kuwait. The entire region will go dark and thirsty if Trump follows through on his threat. Or maybe he will change his mind. I don’t think so. He is surrounded by a Zionist cabal, most importantly his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and the Israeli Prime Minister and internationally wanted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu has visited Trump at least four times as of late. He does not possess the ability to break free of pernicious influence.” – Kurt Nimmo

Israel’s Media Propaganda Decimated By TRUTH – “The first persons/media to claim Iran killed 40,000 Iranians were in the US and UK: Netanyahu (speaking thru a medium from Hell) has stated that Iran is targeting European cities and the al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. There is absolutely no logic to the assertion other than the fact that Israel is the king of false flag operations to blame their enemy, aka, October 7th Negev.” – Helena Glass

Collapse Has Started – GET OUT Of System NOW (VIDEO) with Bill Holter – “The ink is dry all over the western world to fleece investors everywhere. And it doesn’t matter whether you have 10,000, 10 million, or a billion. It doesn’t matter if your institution goes down, you’re toast. Get out of the system. Because when this happens, you’re not going to have access to your cash. You’re not going to have access to your stocks, your insurance portfolio. You’re not going to have access to anything. I mean, even if you did have access, you’d be down 60, 70, 80, 90%. If if you were able to sell,” – Liberty and Finance

The TACO Trade Is Back — But the Real Story Is 5.2% Inflation Expectations – “President Trump just unveiled another massive TACO. Stocks immediately ignited higher. As I write this, the S&P 500 is up 2.4%, the NASDAQ is up 2.6% and the Russell 2000 is up 3.8%. Stocks had been in VERY serious trouble late last week, so this announcement from the President is a welcome relief! It was also extremely expected. From a technical analysis perspective, the S&P 500 had broken below the all-important 200-day simple moving average. This is THE long-term bull market trendline for stocks. So the odds greatly favored an intervention by the President. ” – Graham Summers, MBA  – WAS DELAYING THE BOMBING OF IRAN’S INFRASTRUCTURE JUST A PLOY TO GET THE MARKET BACK UP!!!

China Is Gobbling Up Physical Silver – “While the paper-driven silver price swings all over the place, the Chinese have been gobbling up physical silver. China imported 790 tonnes of silver through the first two months of 2026, with 470 tonnes flowing into the country in February alone. This is happening in a silver market that is already short on metal.” – Mike Maharrey

The outcome hasn’t changed. The story has already been written. Patience isn’t passive. It’s positioning.” – Kerry Lutz

Tweet from X worth reading – “This tweet on my X-feed caught my attention, so I thought it would reassure Substack subscribers who are naturally worried about their gold and silver positions. Dieter’s message is simple and urgent: this engineered dip is the final gift before the real bull market resumes and pricing power permanently shifts east. Buy the physical metal now while the manipulators still control the paper price.” – Alasdair Macleod

How Much Ammo Should You Stockpile for Emergency Preparedness? – “Most people who think about stockpiling ammunition are already approaching the problem backwards. They focus on numbers first, like how many rounds of 9mm, how many boxes of 5.56 or maybe a few hundred shells for a shotgun. It sounds reasonable on paper, but it ignores the one factor that actually determines how much ammunition you need: what you expect to use it for. In a real emergency, ammunition is not just about defense. It becomes a tool with multiple roles. It protects you, feeds you, trains you, and in some situations, it even becomes a form of currency.” – Bob Rodgers  -GOOD ADVICE FROM BOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE BIG PICTURE

Stop Resisting! – “It’s a very strange thing to hear someone whine about being punched in the face after they walked up to someone and cold-cocked them without warning. That is what the state of Israel and its apologists are doing right now. Tel Aviv is in ruins! Civilians have been killed by the Iranians! Well, what did Israel and its apologists expect? Apparently, the expectation is that the Iranians just accept Israel murdering 170 schoolgirls as well as the rest of the murder and mayhem that came along with the joint Israeli-American sneak attack on Iran. This is what’s meant by chutzpah – a word that encompasses audacity and insolence and hypocrisy. We have arrived at what might be described as the ne plus ultra moment of cognitive dissonance. At least in some quarters. The people who decided to start this war and felt no compunction about the murder and mayhem they decided to rain down upon Iran now complain about the same being rained down upon them.” – Eric Peters  – GOOD ONE FROM ERIC AND ERIK BELOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Both Ends Against the Middle – “There is not question that the left is sick—that Trump became president for a 2nd time because Harris is the dumbest person ever nominated to run from either political party. But, under the Trump reign, it’s becoming obvious that the right are conducting a full-blown effort to match the left—as brain dead. If it isn’t obvious to you by now, MAGA (casting itself as American), is an unAmerican, unconstitutional faction in support of Israeli Zionism.” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com

DON’S DIGITAL DOMINOES! – “BEYOND THE BOARD: TRUMP’S ‘SPEED RUN’ SECURES THE HEMISPHERE WHILE THE WORLD IS STILL LOADING… The talking heads on cable news are still flipping through 20th-century textbooks, trying to apply Kissinger-era logic to a TrumpGPT reality. They call it “chaos” because they can’t see the HUD (Heads-Up Display). In the high-stakes game of global Risk, the United States has stopped playing by the “turn-based” rules of the UN and started playing a real-time strategy (RTS) game where the APM (Actions Per Minute) are off the charts” – Kerry Lutz  -IS THERE MORE TO TRUMP’S STRATEGY THAN MEETS THE EYE. INTERESTING THEORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

History Rewritten – Politicians Are The Weapons of Mass Destruction – “How was the Middle East created? In 1916, British diplomat Mark Sykes and French diplomat François Georges-Picot divided the region per a pinky swear promise that the Arabs would assist in overthrowing the Ottoman Empire. Instead of upholding their promise, they turned the middle east into two colonies: France got Syria and Lebanon while Britain got Iraq, Jordan, and Palestine. When Edmond Rothschild began extending settlements in Palestine for his Bolshevik compatriots, The House of Rothschild formed terrorist cells to fight the Arabs and the British leading to the Balfour Agreement. To this day, the majority of Arab countries view Picot and Sykes as terrorists after they assassinated Arab intellectuals in 1916. The aftermath of WWI was a mess of colonialism, chaos, and Lies.” – Helena Glass

NEWS

Is a Revolution Percolating in the US Military? – “As Marco Rubio blurted early on, it is a war for Israel, with US military commitment not requested, but demanded by Netanyahu. As Joe Kent, Trump’s top Counter Terrorism Advisor, stated in his recent resignation letter, the war on Iran is based on an Israeli lie, “the same tactic the Israelis used to draw us into the disastrous Iraq war that cost our nation the lives of thousands of our best men and women.” What Joe Kent believes, and what he does, is important. A combat hardened veteran and MAGA team player, he represents the thinking of many former and current military members, and their civilian counterparts, who have been around long enough to understand that civilian control of the military does not mean the President can do “anything he wants.”” – Karen Kwiatkowski

Things Go Haywire as Israeli Escalation Throws Iran Conflict into Dangerous New Phase – “Things really hit the fan earlier today after Iran’s largest natural gas field, the South Pars, was struck by Israel. This field reportedly accounts for 75% of Iran’s natural gas production and 80-85% of its electric grid.” – Simplicius

A toddler’s guide to international affairs – “Foreign policy in the age of Trump. For his entire life, Donald Trump has inhabited an ecosystem constructed entirely of mirrors that only reflect approval. He has always been surrounded by courtiers who nod before he finishes a sentence, validating his notion that each impulse is equivalent to a command. When you live in a golden elevator where everyone presses the button for you, you begin to believe gravity is optional.” – Ashes of Pompeii

Russia Sends Oil and Gas Tankers to Crisis-Hit Cuba, Defying U.S. Blockade – FT – “Russia has dispatched two tankers carrying oil and gas to Cuba as the island grapples with a deepening energy crisis exacerbated by a U.S. oil blockade, the Financial Times reported Wednesday. The ships would be providing the Caribbean island nation with its first energy shipments in three months. Fuel shortages have pushed Cuba into one of its most severe economic crises in decades, with widespread blackouts and disruptions to basic services.” – The Moscow Times

How Did the Military Industrial Complex Convert Tulsi Gabbard? – “It wasn’t so long ago that Tulsi Gabbard articulated the principled stance of a classical liberal along the lines of George Washington, James Madison, and John Adams, all of whom exhorted the American people to avoid foreign entanglements and to regard the perennial calls for war with skepticism. What happened to her?” -John Leake

Now, however, as we look at the 1-year chart for the S&P 500 index shown further down the page, we see that it has been eroding support near its rising 200-day moving average in the recent past to the point that this support is now believed to be on the point of failure.” – Clive Maund

Beyond Organic: Biological Systems Gardening for Food Security – Part 1 – “Gardening/farming is the original means of production, and it is probably the most accessible means of production in terms of entry requirements. All you need is some dirt and some seeds and now you are a gardener. However, as you all know there is a lot more involved in being a successful gardener than just that. In this article, I’m going to share the gardening principles I’ve learned over the past 11 years that have led to my gardening success.” – Hobbit Farmer

THE BIG PICTURE

Hooray for Hannity and Levin! – “It is only natural that Trump is back-slapping Mark Levin and Sean Hannity. Glenn Beck is no doubt feeling left out. Levn and Hannity – and Beck – are of course regime apologists. In between trying to “tell you about” Rough Greens and such. They represent Conservatism, Inc. The well-oiled grift that long-ago co-opted what was the grassroots conservative movement of Taft and Buchanan, which was nationalist and populist; i.e., it was America (not Israel) first. That had to be stopped, of course. Nationalism and populism are dangerous things from the point-of-view of international bankers and international corporations – so they bought puppets to control the nationalistpopulist movement. Trump is their man. There has been no other man so adept at telling the sore-beset conservative rank-and-file just exactly what they need to hear. He plays them like a Stradivarius. Levin and Hannity – and Beck – providing the orchestral accompaniment, to the strains of Lee Greenwood. It pays very well. These guys are multi-millionaires because they are sponsored by billionaires,” – Eric Peters

Masters Who Rule Presidents – The Power Pyramid – “THEORY: All presidents are appointed by the Masters who Rule. Elections are a farce to dimwit The People into a belief that Power is within their control. Political parties are simply a tool to maintain the fear quotient of the opposing party. Money doesn’t exist. Ownership doesn’t exist. The Georgia Guidestones warned us – as of 2022 they were destroyed by unknown assailants who have never been identified despite surveillance camera footage. Everything about humanity is rooted in ‘death’. The Masters decide who will be their next victim and the presidents/prime ministers – obey” – Helena Glass

A Booster Dose of COVID White Pills – “Reflecting on the silver linings of COVID six years after the “pandemic” changed our lives and the world forever. COVID was a bitter black pill that turned into a white pill. Six years ago, COVID was declared a pandemic that required unprecedented emergency powers to stop. The fearmongering propaganda was unrelenting: 15 days to slow the spread! Flatten the curve! Stay at home, save lives! Mask up! Get boosted! Follow the science! Trust the experts! Meanwhile, leftists rampaged during the summer of love with no repercussions. A senile president was installed after campaigning from his basement. On his way out he pardoned Dr. Fauci, who had engineered all of the destruction. During the depths of the “winter of death and disease”, we could be forgiven for blackpilling.” – Yuri Bezmenov  – GOOD READ FROM YURI AS USUAL!!

You Can’t Have A Free Country When The Government Makes Choices For You – “Americans have an incredible array of choices for food and consumer goods, but government monopolies in education, health care, and energy are ruining our lives.” – Jim DeMint

Oil price hysteria – “So, let us start with the bare facts.[1] The graph above shows monthly averages for the Brent spot price of crude oil back to 1988 in current prices. This price exceeded $100 for 6 months in 2008, 42 months from 2011 to 2014, and 6 months in 2022. Over the last 20 years the monthly average Brent spot price has exceeded $100 for 23% of all months. This is hardly a rare occurrence, though it is not routine.” – Gordon Hughes  – WHEN YOU ACTUALLY LOOK AT THE FACTS $100 OIL IS NOT THAT UNUSUAL!!!

You’ll be drinking Granny and Grandpa soon – “Scotland has legalised “green cremations” and the Law Commission is considering it for England and Wales. The problem with liquifying human remains is that we don’t know how much of Granny and Grandpa is ending up in our drinking water – they are forcing us to become cannibals.” – Rhoda Wilson

Warriors’ Casino: The People Making A Killing Gambling On War – “Insider trading on the end of the world?” – Ryan Lovelace

MAHA Fail: Judge Temporarily Blocks RFK And HHS From Changing Childhood Vaccination Schedule, Challenges RFK’s CDC Vaccine Board – ““This is a great victory not only ​for vaccines and public health in the United States, but for science,” said Richard Hughes, a lawyer for the plaintiffs, on a call with reporters.” – The WinePress

WHO Convenes Global Session to Dictate How the Coming Influenza Pandemic Will Be Run – “Foreign pandemic governance cartel is “[p]reparing for and responding to an influenza pandemic.” – Jon Fleetwood

 

 

 

NEWS

Trump Trumps Himself as MAGA Melts Down in Near Mania over its Betrayal – “What a card!. As a result of all of Trump’s lying and deflecting and delaying and especially his total betrayals of major campaign promises, today’s headlines section of The Daily Doom reverberates with the clamor of MAGA tearing itself apart. Trump is turning out to be everything I’ve said you could expect him to be as he now throws his past supporters into the meat grinder, because the second you criticize him, you’re gone.” – David Haggith

Either Iran or Israel Has to go – “The Zionist agenda of Greater Israel is not consistent with the Existence of Muslim Iran (or Turkey and Saudi Arabia). Unless the Zionist agenda is renounced, Iran has no choice but to fight to its own death or to Israel’s death. The fact that Iran has never seized the initiative, has never used its strategic advantage, but has sat on its butt waiting, indeed inviting, an attack, suggests that Iran does not comprehend the Zionist Agenda.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Cuba, Iran and Little St James – “Cuba as distraction from the Persian distraction from Epstein. In the high-stakes but low brow theater of American foreign policy, failure demands a distraction. With the Trump administration’s Iran strategy in tatters after seventeen days, the search for a quick win intensifies. And in the DC corridors of power, it is likely one name is coming up: Cuba. In typical Trumpian fashion an urgent distraction is needed to distract from the now misfiring distraction from Epstein. The Caribbean worked once before (but does anyone still remember Venezuela and Maduro), so why not again?” – Ashes of Pompeii

Deprivation and depopulation: inside Cuba under US siege (VIDEO) – “On the ground with Cubans suffering through the humanitarian crisis imposed by Washington. Danny Shaw, a scholar of Latin American and Caribbean studies and longtime supporter of the Cuban revolution, documents harrowing conditions across Cuba. Traveling from Holguin to Banes to Santiago this February, Shaw finds a population increasingly deprived of nutrition, with dwindling transportation options as gas runs low, schools are shuttered, and surging inflation makes life unaffordable. The US embargo has hollowed out once-thriving areas, pushing young people to migrate.” – The Grayzone  – GOOD HALF HOUR VIDEO FROM THE GRAYZONE!!!!

Trump says he can do ‘anything I want’ with Cuba – “”I do believe I’ll be … having the honor ​of taking Cuba. That’s a big honor. Taking Cuba in some form,” Trump told reporters as ⁠the island faces an unprecedented economic crisis, exacerbated by an oil blockade the U.S. imposed after capturing former Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.” – Daniel Trotta

Is having no war plan Trump’s ‘plan’? – “The Iranians have a vote on when the war ends. And they say that they are just getting started. The U.S.-Israeli stand-off air-strike model of waging war is being challenged by a quite different strategic asymmetric war – one first planned by Iran more than 20 years ago. This is important to understand when trying to judge where the war balance sheet truly lies. It is like comparing oranges with lemons; they are essentially different in character.” – Alastair Crooke

Donald Trump flips out in unhinged rant after allies refuse to send ships to Iran – “Trump has been begging for other countries – including the UK – to send ships to help in the Middle East. Today he has revealed they all said no” – Mikey Smith

China Eyes Taiwan as U.S. Far East Missile Defense Relocated to Mid-East – “I predicted long before the Iran war kicked off in March that 2026 would be the year the CCP pulls the trigger on its long-awaited incursion across the Taiwan Strait to reclaim what it views as its wayward island redoubt. Among other reasons for my crystal-ball prophecy, Xi Jinping himself essentially declared the conquest as a Chinese New Year’s Resolution of sorts, describing the forced “reunification” of Taiwan with China as “unstoppable.”” – Ben Bartee

U.S. counterterrorism director Joe Kent resigns over war: ‘Iran posed no imminent threat’ – ““Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby,” Kent wrote in his letter.” – Kevin Breuninger  – YEP, EXACTLY WHY TRUMP DID IT AND ALSO TO GET EPSTEIN OFF OF EVERYONE’S MIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why the resignation of Joe Kent is a big deal – “Expect a smear campaign to commence against decorated combat veteran who says Trump makes decisions within ‘echo chamber’ whose loyalties are to Israel first, and America second.” – Leo Hohmann

Gavin Newsom’s Former Chief of Staff Received Thousands in Taxpayer Cash While Under Fraud Investigation – David Lindfield

Shocking video shows Donald Trump discussing his Iran war plans in 1987 – “The video captured an interview with late journalist and television personality Barbara Walters in December 1987, where Trump appeared to predict the current crisis in the Middle East and laid out his war plans if he were president.’You’re going to have a war, and it’s going to start in the Middle East,’ Trump predicted to Walters during the interview.” – Chris Melore

Now they’re trying to make St Patrick woke – “The Irish president wants to make Patrick into the patron saint of globalism. Not on my watch.” – Brendan O’Neill  – LINKED ABOUT THIS YESTERDAY IN AN ARTICLE BY STEVE WATSON AS WELL!!!

NATO Is In A Dilemma Over Whether To Join Trump’s Proposed Hormuz Naval Coalition – “Trump intimated that he might cut off arms sales to them for transfer to Ukraine if they reject his demand, thus likely handing Russia the victory that they’ve sought to avert for four years already, but they also don’t want to risk military losses to Iran either that could doom their politicians’ careers.” – Andrew Korybko

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

January JOLTS—Largely Good News Report Shows Broader Job Growth. Corporate media naturally retained its fixation on job openings, as if the pretense that there is a job waiting to be filled is economically the same as actually filling the job. It isn’t, of course, but that reality has never kept corporate media from dismissing hiring while hyping mostly fake job openings.” – Peter Nayland Kust

US Pending Home Sales Barely Bounce Off Record Lows Despite Tumbling Rates In Feb – “After reaching a record low last month – with the decline blamed on weather – pending home sales bounced modestly in February (up 1.8% MoM vs -0.6% MoM exp and -10.% MoM prior). Year-over-year home sales continue to decline (down 0.6% YoY)..” – Tyler Durden

Housing Remains in the Gutter, But Mortgage Rates Are Creeping Back Up – “After falling to 6.0 percent, the MND average 30-year rate shot up to 6.41 percent yesterday. It’s now 6.36 percent. Don’t expect housing to contribute anything to GDP in the first quarter of 2026.” – Mish

Ever wonder where $7 TRILLION goes? So does the government. – “It’s not that the OMB is lazy or incompetent; it’s that there are simply too many federal programs… and the complex web of spending makes it virtually impossible to tally up all the various offices, agencies, sub-departments, committees, special advisory boards, emergency programs, etc. that exist in the federal government. Congress makes things much worse when they appropriate annual funding for some program— sort of ‘fire and forget’. So decades go by since a program was originally created…yet it continues to receive money each year even though nobody knows what it’s for. Bottom line, the government now spends $7 trillion each year. And they can’t figure out where it goes.” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

Wealth Taxes Raise Less Revenue Than You Think – “Historically, wealth taxes have raised little revenue and routinely underperformed official projections. The same dynamic appears likely to repeat itself in the United States. A recent analysis by five Stanford economists at the Hoover Institution examines the proposed California wealth tax and finds that its projected $100 billion in revenues relies on unrealistic assumptions.” – Adam N. Michel

Silver’s Sharp Pullback Raises Bigger Questions About the Global Economy (VIDEO) – David Morgan

Investing in Gold vs. Silver: Which Is a Better Investment? – “Today, gold and silver investments are still popular choices for anyone who wants to diversify their wealth. In this guide, we’ll explore the main differences between these precious metals and how they might fit into your savings strategy.” – Peter Reagan

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Turn Your Fences Into Food! – “Vines have a quiet talent most gardeners overlook: they turn empty air into food. Along a fence, up a trellis, across a shed wall, or over a pergola, these climbing plants transform vertical space into a living pantry. On a homestead where every square foot matters, vines are one of the smartest ways to multiply your harvest without expanding your garden beds.” – Bill Heid

55 Survival Supplies You Can Never Have Too Much Of – Alan UrbanHow to Prevent Pigs from Escaping and How to Catch Them – “It turns out that getting stubborn pigs to return to their paddock isn’t quite as easy as it might sound! Pigs are not only intelligent, but they’re set in their ways. And once they’ve escaped, it can be super difficult to get them home. ” – Rebekah Pierce

7 DIY Projects Using Cinder Blocks – Olivia Brooks

Why You Need an EDC Strategy – “The key to a solid EDC kit for you is to match the items to the environment you expect to find yourself in and the circumstances that are most likely to come up for you. That means every day, not just in a bug out situation. You might not need a compass, for example, if you live and work in the city. And is a cellphone charger really on your list if you spend most of your time outdoors? This is where having a good Everyday Carry Strategy comes in.” – Dan F. Sullivan

THE BIG PICTURE

Everything Is a Psyop: Therefore Everything Is a Fraud – “As this performance of terror continues, it becomes more and more obvious that the entirety of these recent events is one big staged fraud. This fakery involves not only the U.S., Israel, and Iran, but also England, Europe, and likely Russia, China and much of the world’s ruling classes. This does not mean that people are not being killed, but governments kill people at will whenever it suits there chosen agendas, all without any conscience that could alter the outcome sought. Hence the term, human fodder. These thoughts harken back to the most important adage that is that everything happening in government is premeditated, planned long in advance, and therefore, all aspects of what is perceived by the masses, whether partial reality or not, is a psyop, and everything is a fraud. This truth could not be any more obvious than it is today.” – Gary D. Barnett

“All of Our Great TSA Agents” – ““Thank you,” says the president, to “all of our great TSA agents” – those blue suited government workers who serve essentially the same function as guards in a prison, which is of course what airports have become. 1/7 With some differences, of course. Prisons house criminals whereas airports are full of ordinary citizens just trying to travel by air somewhere. If an actual terrorist wanted to get on an airplane, he could do so easily – by buying or just renting a private airplane, where TSA Security Kabuki is not performed. We are supposed to be believe that actual terrorist organizations lack the money to rent airplanes – or even buy them, if they needed to. Of course, we are also expected to believe that steel-framed buildings with multiple/redundant support columns can collapse straight down at near-freefall speed as a result of office fires after not having been struck by a jet airliner.” – Eric Peters

War, Oil And Debt: Which Threats To The US Economy Are Legit? – “Iran has the potential to become a “linchpin” disaster, but the conditions are not right for one yet. For now, I continue to believe that the most significant danger to the global economy and the US economy is still the European oligarchy and their push for war with Russia over Ukraine. Any move by the Europeans to deploy troops to the region could result in a large scale war that would dwarf the events in Iran and completely derail already fragile economic structures. If you’re worried about global Armageddon, look to Ukraine, not Iran. The largest secondary hazard is domestic.” – Brandon Smith

Iran War & Fuel Rationing – are “Energy Lockdowns” on the way? – “The war in Iran is having the impact that most people with any sense knew it would have: The price of oil is going up, and the supply of oil is going down. Of course, whether or not the latter of these is actually true we will never know, and it’s beside the point. Oil companies will natural take the slightest excuse to price gouge and contrive scarcity for the basest of profit motives. It also serves a political motive as well, since we know the global political machinery is – against free travel against fossil fuels and against people being able to afford basically anything.’ – Kit Knightly

WHY IS PETER THIEL IN ROME? – “Peter Thiel is in Rome to host a secretive, invitation-only conference focused on the concept of the Antichrist, blending theology, technology, and political ideology. Thiel, a co-founder of PayPal and Palantir, frames technology and data-driven power as the modern Katéchon, or “braking force” that delays the Antichrist’s rise. Thiel also identifies technological regulation and “woke” global governance as modern forms of the Antichrist, warning that these forces erode individual freedom and delay human advancement. In contrast, he sees technology companies—like his own Palantir—as a restraining force that delays the Antichrist’s rise by preserving progress and data-driven power.” – Frances Leader

Guess What Ireland’s President Said About St. Patrick’s Day… “New leader turns national holiday into a globalist lecture. Irish President Catherine Connolly marked her first St. Patrick’s Day in office with a message that reframed Ireland’s patron saint as a symbol for open borders and ‘global citizenship’, urging the Irish to embrace migrants amid ongoing surges in arrivals that have sparked nationwide tensions.” – Steve Watson

The Female George Soros? – “MacKenzie Scott splashes out billions. She has given away $26 billion, almost all of it to relentlessly lefty causes. She has more than $30 billion left, and she’s determined to give that away, too. No one in the history of the world has ever given away so much money as quickly as MacKenzie Scott, Jeff Bezos’s ex-wife. In total giving, she has already breezed by George Soros, and he has only $7-1/2 billion left.” – Jared Taylor

DMSO, AI, and The Great Transformation of Information – “Unfortunately, DMSO has languished in an unusual spot. It was widely used throughout the pharmaceutical industry, a component in many drugs and was the active agent in a few FDA approved therapies but simultaneously, despite decades of protest (including by Congress) and being widely used around the world, the FDA essentially banned DMSO from medicine in America, and few even know about it (demonstrating that medical policies is often the result of politics rather than science). Because of this, I felt it was worth publicizing the mountain of forgotten literature showing DMSO worked, and once I did so, many people reported profound improvements and disbelief that something like DMSO existed,” – A Midwestern Doctor

The Age of Printed War: Central Bankers and the Machinery of Permanent Conflict – “Wars don’t just cost money; they are the business model of broken money. Follow the trail from owl coins to oil chokepoints, and the ending writes itself.” – Jon Forrest Little

 

 

 

NEWS

Is There A Way Out For Stupid? – “How do we end this US excursion into the arcade? This is the question the Pentagon and the White House should be working night and day to answer. Heads should be rolling in the White House and Pentagon. American sailors and airmen should be sent home now, starting with the long overdue return of the USS Gerald Ford. In this Epstein-inspired orgy of gleeful mass decapitations, unneeded boutique wars, and presidential kidnappings, our men and women in uniform are being treated as slaves and concubines to the emperor, not as America’s sons, daughters and protectors. Beyond this, the White House leviathan needs to get truth-based, immediately. We will not live down the ongoing insanity of the words coming out of the pie holes of Pete Hegseth, Marco Rubio, Scott Bessent, and Chris Wright.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

What’s Really Driving the Iran War (VIDEO) – “The Iran War, into which we are now 15 days, may well be called WW3 in hindsight. It is not a war fought for the usual reasons, such as theft of resources. This is war driven by religious madness, by eschatological lunacy, where those pushing end times beliefs and messianic prophecy are driving the actions of both the US and Israel.” – Makia Freeman

Netanyahu’s Potential Assassination Leaves White House in Panic Mode – “TRUMP PUSHING ALLIES ON STRAIT OF HORMUZ: Except the US has no more allies. The US has a few countries which want America’s money – but allies? No. Argentina is just another Debt to Taxpayers. The EU is backing off. The Middle East is backing off. The only ones pushing bigger and greater war are Netanyahu and Trump. Rumors of Netanyahu’s death are gaining traction as Israel released two obvious AI fakes. Which leaves Trump in left field fighting a war that Iran will use to economically destroy America undermining Trump’s legacy. A Lone Hyena.” – Helena Glass

Time to Pull the Plug On Trump and Netanyahu – “No US interest is served in allowing political domination by Israel” – Philip Giraldi

Trump Attacks Iran’s Oil Terminal on Kharg Island. “U.S. Troops to West Asia”? Suicide Mission – “President Trump and his War Department confront a quandary. The effort to topple the government of Iran and destroy its ability to protect itself has stalled. It is common knowledge airstrikes alone are unable to accomplish the goal of unseating a government. The only option for Trump is to send ground troops. As part of an effort to flip the narrative and change the perception of the war, Trump rebuked the corporate media. On March 14, he demanded they stop reporting on damage and losses inflicted on the US by Iran. Not long after Trump posted his diatribe, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr went on X and said that broadcasters “are running hoaxes and news distortions” and they have a chance to “correct course before their license renewals come up.” According to Carr, reporting facts about the US-Israeli war against Iran is not “in the public interest.” Apparently the First Amendment and the truth are also not in the public interest. The damage Trump mentions has little to do with the floundering effort to overthrow the government of Iran and balkanize the country and everything to do with leveling with the American people about an undeclared war that does not have clear objectives and a conceivable exit ramp.” – Kurt Nimmo

Frustrated by Failure, an Unhinged Trump Begins to Tilt as Hormuz Standoff Heats Up – “The ‘Special Combat Operation’ continues accumulating unbridled triumphs with Trump’s announcement that he had visited upon Iran’s Kharg island a most biblical of retributions. The very next day, it was reported by multiple MSM outlets that Iran was shipping oil from the island as normal.” – Simplicius

Trump says US may strike Iran’s Kharg Island oil export hub ‘just for fun’ – “In comments to NBC News, US president also deflates hope of deal with Tehran, saying ‘terms aren’t good enough’” – Guardian staff  – YEP, WAR IS JUST ALL FUN AND GAMES FOR THE TRUMPSTER!!!!!!

Decoding Trump’s Demand For China To Join His Proposed Hormuz Naval Coalition – “Trump wants to throw Xi into a dilemma before his upcoming trip, which he threatened to delay if China doesn’t join the US’ coalition, but it’s still possible that Xi flips the tables on Trump somehow.” – Andrew Korybko

War Prayer in the White House – “Mark Twain, Anyone? I wasn’t aware that evangelical leaders came to the White House to pray over Trump. I’ve been in oval churches, built in that shape so that there are no corners where the devil can hide. But what if the devil is hiding in plain sight? These so-called christian evangelicals are a scary bunch. I recently wrote to a friend that being a Christian is fairly simple: love God, love thy neighbor, and remember that Christ is the Prince of Peace, the healer of the sick, the benefactor of the downtrodden. What we have instead is a heretical brand of “christianity” with a Warrior-Christ where we’re supposed to despise our neighbor if he’s not a Zionist and/or an evangelical who loves Trump.” – Bill Astore

Betrayal: Trump Loosens Visa Restrictions To Import More Foreign Workers To Address Farm Labor Shortages – “Lowering wages for H-2A workers will not lead to more American workers in agriculture or increased pay for native workers,” – The WinePress

Heading toward heartbreak- “Later this year, we’ll have the midterm elections. Historically, the president’s party loses seats in both chambers, and there’s not really any real indication that this year will be any different. It might be, but we’re just not seeing a whole lot to really suggest it. And that’s bad, because we had a golden opportunity to reform America. We had a majority in the House and Senate, a majority at the Supreme Court, and President Trump in the White House.And we had a chance to make it happen, to reform what America actually is. We didn’t. But when that pendulum swings back the other way, expect the cancel culture to return in full force. The system that we all rely on will likely try to turn on us once again. The IRS, the ATF, the FBI, and anyone else who can poke into your life just might, all because you stood up for what you believed.” – Tom Knighton  – ALL BECAUSE TRUMP WENT FULL BLOWN MIGA INSTAED OF MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

THE DEEPER DIVE: We are Stumbling on the Truth around us Because we Cannot See it – “Thanks to endless government deceptions and now the fog of war, the best we can do to find the truth is stub our toes on it and hope not to trip over it. This past week, we got to see something a little closer to the truth, as even the Trump administration had to cut their original claim of 1.4% growth IN HALF. They came back and reported was really only 0.7% after all.” – David Haggith

US Secretary of Energy Says High Gasoline Prices Might Last Weeks – “Given that diesel and fertilizer prices are soaring, I have a question. So, when is the next farm bailout?” – Mish

Iran’s Currency War Gamble: US Dollars in the Crosshairs and What it Means – “As we have seen with the recent escalations in Iran and throughout the Middle East, the structural backdrop of the global energy market is now shifting. Iran is taking direct aim at cargo ships, and specifically oil tankers, passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Yet, the situation is set to potentially change beyond conflict and military escalations. Now, reports are detailing that Tehran might be considering a move that would directly challenge the dollar’s supremacy by allowing oil to pass through the Strait, provided that the oil cargo is traded in Chinese yuan.To understand why this matters, we have to look at the “Petrodollar.” The petrodollar isn’t just a buzzword. It’s a 50-year-old arrangement where major oil-producing nations price their exports in U.S. dollars. ” – Nomi Prins

PCE Price Index Shows Little Change. That’s A Problem – “Is The US Economy Flirting With Stagnation?” – Peter Nayland Kust

U.S. Government Debt Black Hole Got Bigger in February – “I could almost put this story on a monthly repeat. The federal government ran another big budget deficit in February, as the national debt nudges close to $39 trillion.” – Mike Maharrey

LBMA’s silver house of cards collapses: London DEFAULTS on physical delivery – “The LME suspension is a default. LME paper market has run out of readily deliverable 1,000‑oz bars. The LME’s refusal to specify which metals are affected or how broad the suspension is makes one conclusion inescapable: given the law of logic and David Jensen’s earlier work on London’s silver shortage, this blackout almost certainly covers silver—and strongly implies the market has already defaulted on meaningful physical delivery. This is exactly why India, just two weeks ago, moved to cut LBMA and LME out of its precious‑metal valuation:” – Niko Moretti

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Emergency Shelter Risks: Why Shelters Are Often the Worst Option – “When disasters strike in the United States, the official message is simple: go to a public shelter. Schools, churches, and community centers quickly become temporary housing for evacuees. For many people, that sounds like the safest option available. But the truth is that shelters come with serious downsides that rarely get discussed openly. ” – Bob Rodgers

Construction and Design of a Remote, Off-Grid Residence – Part 3 – “STORAGE – A big challenge when living in small homes is storage space.” – Mrs. Alaska  – PARTS 1 AND 2 WERE LINKED THE PAST TWO DAYS, THIS CONCLUDES THE SERIES!!!

The $1 Solar Water Heater Hiding In Your Backyard – “It isn’t smart. It doesn’t connect to Wi-Fi. And it doesn’t need a single watt of grid power. It’s just a black garden hose and the same sunlight the Romans used to fill their bathhouses with steaming water two thousand years ago. In other words, the simplest solar technology imaginable may already be sitting in your backyard. And once you see it, you can’t really un-see it.” – Bill Heid

Communication Blackout – What Happens When the Outside World Goes Silent – “Don’t risk your life unnecessarily. Use technology but don’t become dependent on it. Create a small hard copy of important contact information, including addresses and keep it in your wallet. Make a family radio communications plan and practice it regularly.” – Cache Valley Prepper

THE BIG PICTURE

Insanity, Debt, Unlimited Oil Price Hikes, Famine, and Aggressive War – “My, my, much of the world is shutting down, told to stay home, to work from home, to use less energy, and to restrict travel, all while prices on fuel skyrocket. This is almost similar to another scam called the ‘covid pandemic.’ This is heavily affecting Asia at this time, but the longer this U.S. (Trump) and Israeli (Netanyahu) war idiocy continues, the risk of much higher prices, shutdowns, and economic upheaval will only increase in scope and area. These consequences of aggressive war and regime change always affect the general populations the most, and certainly the ‘unintended’ (not) consequences will become much more in number and severity, likely including famine in many parts of the world.” – Gary D. Barnett

What it is – “What it is is the hubris. Where is the gravity of this “controlled collapse” from our revered leaders?” – Sylvia Shawcross  – SHORT AND TO THE POINT FROM SYLVIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On The 6th Anniversary Of The Covid Plandemic, The World Is Being Thrust Into A New Catastrophe And Climate Lockdown With Oil Shocks Caused By War In Iran – “Crisis Economics 101. This latest war is the next leg of the Great Reset launched in 2020, as the world faces supply-chain and energy shocks echoing the plandemic.” – The WinePress

FBI Case Files Link Epstein to Jimmy Savile – “Newly uncovered documents have linked Britain’s most notorious child predator, Jimmy Savile, to Jeffrey Epstein and his convicted accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell. The files connect Savile to several other figures connected to Epstein’s network.” – Frank Bergman

War Abroad Should Not Mean Less Freedom at Home – “History suggests that wartime often reshapes the relationship between citizens and government. The United States remains one of the last English-speaking countries where speech and thought are still broadly protected. That did not happen by accident. Yet when we look honestly at the past century, a pattern becomes difficult to ignore. Nearly every major war America has entered has been followed by some erosion of liberty at home.” – Mollie Engelhart

We Are Beings of Light – “How plant blood hidden inside your mitochondria silently harvests the sun — and what this means for everything you thought you knew about energy, aging, and what it means to be alive.” – Sayer Ji

Heads-up: Food crisis incoming – “Prices will rise, shortages will occur. Dear reader, the coming food crisis requires immediate action: 1. Change your diet: Shift toward plant-based proteins like lentils, beans, and chickpeas. Legumes fix nitrogen and require less synthetic urea. Also, this cheap source of protein (especially dried beans) reduces exposure to price volatility. 2. Start your stockpile now: Buy shelf-stable commodities before retail prices adjust. Focus on rice, oats, pasta, and dried beans. 3. Grow and preserve fresh foods: Start plants indoors this spring (in the northern hemisphere). Research what grows in your area and begin seed starting this weekend. Learn to can fresh food to preserve what you grow or supermarket deals.” – Sarah Connor

The a-spiritual President and his Demonic War. – “A holy war and the unholy leader driving it. “The Bible means a lot to me, but I don’t want to get into specifics.” — Donald Trump, 2015 on Bloomberg Politics’ program, With All Due Respect. US President Trump is the most obviously a-spiritual US president I can recall in my life-time—although, Bill Clinton, perhaps, warrants special mention here too. The Trumpster is rarely given to twenty minute off-cuff the remarks expanding on his spiritual faith and practice. Question: “Have you ever asked God for forgiveness?” Answer: “I am not sure I have. I just go on and try to do a better job from there. I don’t think so. I think if I do something wrong, I think I just try and make it right. I don’t bring God into that picture. I don’t.” Interesting answer. But, let’s finish by asking a question for those of us who think of ourselves as Christians? Can those Shia Muslim Iranian school-girls be in any other place than the most heavenly one and on the right hand side of God? I think not. I believe not. I pray not.” – Gerry O’Neill

‘We voted for walls, not wars’: Did strikes on Iran just break MAGA? – “How the war on Iran shattered the loyalty of Trump’s supporters” – Evgeny Balakin

The Inner Cabinet and the Outer Media – “Anyone who is not sick at heart and raging over the slaughter of over 165 young Iranian girls at a school by the American-Israeli monsters waging war on Iran is depraved and evil. It sickens me to state something so obvious, but I am afraid it is true that many are not distraught by the news. A nod to “how terrible” and on with the war is a common response for those who even know about it, not just because of moral indifference but because of the acceleration of digital news reporting that disappears today before it has become tomorrow. The young girls are forgotten with each passing day in the U.S. and Israel – but not in Iran.” – Edward Curtin

Trump Crosses Iran’s ‘Red Line’ By Heavy Bombing Of Kharg Island, Endangering Energy Assets Across Region – “In what could prove to be a major step up the escalation ladder in the two-week-old US-Israeli war on Iran, President Trump on Friday evening (notably after US market closure) announced that US Central Command had carried out a major bombing raid on Kharg Island, which handles upwards of 90% of Iran’s crude oil exports.” – Tyler Durden

Mission Accomplished: Trump Declares Victory as All Sides Intensify Combat – David Haggith

The Madman School of International Diplomacy Madmen and the road to MAD. Donald Trump offers perhaps the most prominent contemporary example. Once a master of transactional negotiation, his later tenure suggests a leader increasingly isolated from factual reality, driven by personal grievance and an intoxicating sense of power. Here, the distinction between the strategic use of unpredictability and actual instability has become dangerously blurred, creating a foreign policy environment defined by chaos rather than calculated risk, where even his closest associates don’t know where his next whim or affront might take him.” – Ashes of Pompeii

When “Diplomats” Engineer War – “The eerie parallels between July 23, 1914 and February 27, 2026. The talks were between Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff and senior advisor Jared Kushner and the Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Witkoff and Kushner made the following demands:… In other words, the U.S. envoys asked Iran to surrender ALL of its capacity for projecting military power and deterring missile and aerial attacks on its homeland. It doesn’t matter what you think about the Iranian regime, just as it didn’t matter in 1914 what the Austrian people thought about the Serbian regime. There was simply no way that either regime could accept these demands without placing themselves entirely at the mercy of the Austrians and Americans respectively.” – John Leake

The TV Generals Have Something to Sell You About Iran – “These three kings are working for someone and it’s not us. For all the fears about militarism creeping across America, the generals are already in command —on cable news. The Iran war is the TV generals’ new battlefield. But their real service is to their clients and themselves. Ever since the first Gulf War in 1991, every one of the big networks has hired some retired general or admiral to appear on air as an “expert” to explain the complicated matters of war (and behind the scenes, to smooth matters over with the Pentagon). In reality, it’s all business.” – Ken Klippenstein

Networks Still Using Retired Generals to Sell War – “Serious Conflicts of Interest for America’s War Salesmen and Cheerleaders” – Bill Astore

Macron’s aircraft carrier and warplanes to the Persian Gulf is a dangerous vanity project – “Like a knight in shining armour, French President Emmanuel Macron is vowing to defend Europe’s interests as the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran escalates. Macron is not defending Europe or French honor. His theatrical swashbuckling is going to get more people killed and very possibly make the economic impact on Europe even more disastrous.” – Finian Cunningham

London Buses Must Now Be Equipped With STAB KITS – “Knifings become an everyday horror, but no one dares name the real cause” – Steve Watson

Wars are never about what we’re told they’re about, and this one is no different – “The war with Iran is not about preserving Israel’s existence. It’s not about destroying Iran’s weapons. It has always been about regime change and a broader strategy to control routes and resources.” – Leo Hohmann

Without The Save Act, We are Living in a Slave State and Our Labor Is Harvested by Crooks. – “Did John Thune get a clench in his noble behind when eye-patch-pretend-pirate-guy lost his primary? Added to Trump’s relentless pressure Thune has, grindingly, consented to refer the Save Act to a vote, possibly next week. Thune is, like most elected Republicans, pretendian MAGA counting the days when he can go back to playing defence and lining his pockets. The fact that voter fraud has deprived the Republicans of a clear unbreakable majority for THREE election cycles is clearly beyond him. He is functionally retarded. Or a shark committing treason.” – Elizabeth Nickson

Will The Iran War Oil Price Shock Sink Stocks? (VIDEO) with Lance Roberts – “The military conflict in Iran has sent oil prices to $100/barrel, placing stress on the global economy. And tonight, the US just threatened to destroy the oil infrastructure on Kharg Island, which would essentially cut off Iran’s ability to export. Should oil prices remain elevated — or even worse, move even higher — for any notable time, would this send the financial markets into shock?

The 126-Year Case for Gold: And Why This Rally’s Not Done Yet – “On this day, 126 years ago, President William McKinley, the 25th President of the United States signed the Gold Standard Act into law. The Act fixed the value of one U.S. dollar at 25.8 grains of gold, set the price at $20.67 per troy ounce, and required the Treasury to redeem paper currency in gold on demand. Gold is trading at roughly over $5,000 today. That means we have a lot of history to unpack and a lot of policy decisions to account for within that gap.” – Nomi Prins

$5,000 Gold Is the “New Normal” – Here’s What It Says About the Economy – “Finally, a “new normal” we can get behind The phrase new normal has carried a lot of baggage in recent years. Lockdowns. Supply disruptions. Empty shelves. So when analysts begin describing $5,000 gold as a possible new normal, it’s understandable if people feel uneasy. Yet that idea is increasingly appearing in financial commentary.” – Peter Reagan

Specifically, look at their greenhouses. Amish and Old Order Mennonite communities across Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and the surrounding states have developed a greenhouse tradition that is quietly one of the most practical and replicable models of year-round food production available to anyone serious about reducing their dependence on the commercial food supply. ” – Ask A Prepper Staff

Don’t build a bigger fence to keep our your neighbor, build a bigger table, and let’s get together and take our country back.

THE BIG PICTURE

35 Acres and the Scofield Bible (VIDEO) – “According to Hebrew scripture, the 35 acres of land in southeast Jerusalem known as, the Temple Mount, was originally a threshing floor for processing grain and was purchased by King David for the purpose of building an altar. The First Temple was built around 957 BC, stood for nearly four centuries, and was destroyed in 586 BC. It was this First Temple, Solomon’s temple, which became the symbolic importance of the Temple Mount. The Zohar and Kabbalah describe how the demon Asmedai taught Solomon how to control demons, which is how he built the Temple. The legend of King Solomon is arguably the foundation of all Western occultism. Cyrus Scofield received financial support from Samuel Untermeyer, a prominent Jewish Zionist and Scofield’s connection to the wealthy lifestyle of the Lotus Club in New York City. In 1909, with the prestige of Oxford University Press, a reference Bible was published with Scofield’s own notes printed in the same physical space as the biblical text itself. An ideal format to psychologically fool the reader into thinking these radical ideas are sacred text.” – Greg Reese  – VERY INTERESTING SHORT VIDEO FROM GREG. A MUST WATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

America’s Coup – The Evolution of Illuminati and Freemason Chabad – “Front and Center – Kushner. Named hundreds of times in the Epstein files, Kushner and Epstein socialized on a fairly regular basis as well as on a professional basis. Charles Kushner, Jared’s convicted felon father, has had a close relationship with Netanyahu for decades leaving the uncontested rumor open that he is a Mossad Agent as was Epstein. Jared and his father follow the Chabad Movement . An FBI memo within the Epstein release details the fact that Trump was compromised by Israel thru Epstein and Kushner. Berel Lazar, a Chabad-Lubavitch member, was formerly the Chief Rabbi of Russia and remains a close advisor to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Chabad is used by Putin to keep tabs on all the Russo-Jewish oligarchs. The memo asserts that Chabad is a major global source of money laundering. Tolerated.” – Helena Glass

‘Experts’ Know Less than They Think – “All ‘authorities’ should be challenged. It may be absurd to mindlessly trust the “expertise” of Dan Rather, Al Gore, Greta Thunberg, and Bill Gates, but it’s no less dangerous to mindlessly trust the “expertise” of someone whom Wikipedia would no doubt describe as a “real authority.” Dr. Anthony Fauci has all the credentials that people who enjoy credentials salivate over.” – J.B.

Operation Epstein Fury: It’s Jeffery’s War!- “Nobody Asked for This War, But Somebody Sure Needed It Bill Clinton sat for his deposition on February 27th. He raised his right hand, swore an oath before the House Oversight Committee, and spent several hours answering questions about why he treated Jeffrey Epstein’s child trafficking airline like a municipal bus route. The deposition videos were released to the public. America watched a former president try to explain away decades of flight logs with the energy of a man returning a rental car with a dent he’s hoping nobody notices. “I saw nothing and I did nothing wrong,” Clinton told the committee, which is technically a complete sentence and also the least convincing denial since Pete Rose swore he never bet on baseball. America had questions. Big ones. Uncomfortable ones. The kind of questions that make billionaires call their lawyers and presidents call their generals. On February 28th, the United States and Israel launched a surprise attack on Iran that killed the Supreme Leader, his daughter, his grandchild, and over a thousand civilians in a single morning. The files had become an extinction-level event for the entire American power structure.” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

Washington’s Latest Big Lie: Iran’s 47-Year War On America, Part 3 – “If you don’t think the Big Lie about “Iran’s 47-Year War on America” has salience, just consider the words this AM of the Donald himself. In the most unhinged and belligerent public utterance of any POTUS in our lifetime, if ever, Trumpy informed the world that he’s getting his rocks off killing Iranians as punishment for their five decades of alleged terror: “Watch what happens to these deranged scumbags today. They’ve been killing innocent people for 47 years, and now I, as the 47th President of the United States of America, am killing them. What a great honor it is to do so!“ There you have it—the very words of a madman going to town on the Big Lie.” – David Stockman

Trump Says the Iran War Will End “When I Feel It in My Bones” – “Please recall Trump started this war on a “feeling” and poor advice.” – Mish

Pentagon Sends Marine Expeditionary Unit To Middle East, Oil Spikes On Ground War Fears – “Are we really doing this (again)? Iran’s new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei is reportedly alive but wounded, “damaged,” and “disfigured”” – Tyler Durden

The “New” Iran? What Happens Next – “The worst-case scenario is very, very bad: chaos. Think Libya 2011, or Iraq during the darkest days, but this time with ballistic missiles and maybe even some fissionable material loose among the competing factions. Only the most deluded in Washington and Tel Aviv think they know which scenario will be the next step in a new Iran. Only the most deluded in Washington and Tel Aviv think they will have significant influence themselves in what happens next.” – Peter Van Buren

Is there even an off ramp? – “The strategic paradigm regarding Iran has shifted fundamentally. And despite the calls for a ground invasion in some circles, and given the combination of current events on the ground, Iranian resiliance, and logistics, it is simply not possible. Central to this equation is the vindictive nature of President Trump, a trait that transforms geopolitical setbacks into personal grievances, compounded by the “Bibi factor”: Benjamin Netanyahu’s four-decade obsession with confronting Iran, now reaching a point of catastrophic desperation as every strategic avenue fails. Netanyahu has dedicated much of his political life to conflict with an emergent, Islamic Iran. For forty years, he has advocated, plotted, and pressured for decisive action. Now, with Israel under daily barrage and conventional options nearly exhausted, his influence on Washington becomes a volatile accelerant. ” – Ashes of Pompeii

Can Trump even stop the Iran war? – “The war which Trump started is back firing more and more each day. He has very little time left before America wakes up and realises what a dog’s breakfast he has made of it all.” – Martin Jay

Iran is not on a suicide mission. It is on autopilot. And nobody in Tehran can reach the controls. – “The question nobody has asked is whether anyone inside the Islamic Republic can turn it off. No. The reason is constitutional. Ali Khamenei issued the pre-delegation orders. Ali Khamenei is dead. Mojtaba Khamenei was appointed successor on 8th March. He has not spoken. He has not appeared. He has issued no verifiable order. He was wounded in an airstrike and has never addressed his nation in his life. The sole constitutional authority that could override 31 autonomous commands exists in an office occupied by a man who may not be capable of exercising it.” – Shanaka Anslem Perera on X  – DEFINITELY READ THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What If Every Billionaire’s and Senator’s Kid Could Be Sent to Fight in Iran? -“If the road to Tehran required the sons and daughters of the billionaire & political class to march beside everyone else’s kids, would we still be there? The human cost of war, in other words, gets hidden. But a fair national draft would change that overnight. It wouldn’t make America more warlike: history shows it would do the opposite. If every family knew their children could be sent to fight, Americans would demand diplomacy first, second, and third.” – Thom Hartmann

Would You Trust America? The Ailing, Flailing, Failing Empire – “If you were a foreigner (or even an American for that matter), you’d probably conclude that the word of the Trump administration is completely untrustworthy. Dastardly is another “d” word that comes to mind, along with destructive and deadly. Meanwhile, Democratic Senator Elissa Slotkin is shocked, shocked, that Russia is aiding Iran. Russia has crossed the Rubicon here, Slotkin said; she seems to be suggesting that the U.S. widen the war with Iran to target Russia as well. World War III, anyone?” – Bill Astore

This week’s breathtaking revelation appears to be that governments sometimes produce… propaganda. That’s right, the same institutions that brought you two unbroken years of dancing vaccine syringes, celebrity mask PSAs, brainwashing disguised as children’s programming, and a nonstop cable-news ticker of “Covid deaths” like the world’s most depressing stock market are shocked—shocked, I tell you!—to learn that the powers that be occasionally try to shape public opinion.” – Jenna McCarthy

Perhaps Europe shouldn’t have closed their coal plants to entertain climate activists.” – Peter St Onge

The Three Pillars of the Bull Case Just Crumbled. What Comes Next Could Be Ugly – “”One by one, the stock market bulls are running out of market props. Throughout the initial round of selling in in stocks, bullish investors pointed to aggregate breadth as indicating that there was underlying strength in the markets. Afterall, how could a bear market unfold if overall breadth is at all-time highs? Well, that argument is gone. Breadth has cratered, erasing nearly all its 2026 gains. – Graham Summers, MBA

It is becoming clear that Iran is no push over and the economic consequences of this war are dire, with oil at $100 and going higher.

THE BIG PICTURE

If The “Iranians” Attack Here… – “It is becoming obvious that Americans’ support for Trump’s war on behalf of Israel – never enthusiastic – is ebbing with each day, chiefly on account of the War Tax Americans are having to pay. Is it a coincidence that the government is ominously whispering into Americans’ ears that the “Iranians” are preparing some kind of attack right here in the “Homeland,” as America became after the last time this sort of thing happened? What if it’s not the Iranians? A better question is perhaps: Why would the Iranians, since such an attack would be contrary to their interests since it could do little more than predictably boot up American enthusiasm for this war that a majority of Americans never supported and that a large and growing-daily majority want stopped? In other words, why would the Iranians do something that would likely assure they’ll lose this war when they seem to be winning it?” – Eric Peters

Who is the Devil and Where Does He Reside? – “Khomeini believed the Great Satan was not only a political adversary, but a spiritual enemy, and he characterized America as a “world-devouring” power that seduces, murders, and imposes sanctions on oppressed nations. If, in the year 2019, you asked me what I thought about Khomeini’s speech, I would have told you that he was a deluded and superstitious fanatic. However, after observing the events of the last six years, I’m not so sure. One might argue that Khomeini was himself a Deceiver who seduced the Iranian people into following him so that he could enslave them. Maybe so. The quandary in which I now find myself arises from the fact that the United States government has, in my eyes, lost all credibility. This quandary leads me “to an overwhelming question”—that is, who to believe?” – John Leake

Government Pedophiles, Roger Stone, Alex Jones, Ronald Reagan & MCA [Pizzagate Part 16] – “The lead-up to the grand finale… Music Corporation of America (MCA) was an American media conglomerate that started off as a talent agency for artists in the music business. The company was founded by Jewish Jules C. Stein, who happened to be close friends with Chicago Outfit crime family leader Al Capone. In fact, Jules’s bands played for speakeasies owned by Capone. Remember how Jewish Les Wexner had a Jewish mentor? And how Donald Trump had a Jewish mentor? Because all elite Jews have mentors, Jules Stein was Lew Wasserman’s mentor, so when the time came, Jules passed MCA down to his mentee.” – Agent131711

Canadian Government Begins Euthanizing Public with ‘Same-Day’ Lethal Injections – “Canada’s taxpayer-funded euthanasia program is drawing renewed scrutiny after a new report found that the government has already been quietly performing thousands of same-day “assisted suicides.” The revelations come as Canada continues expanding its Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) system, ” – Frank Bergman

The 2026 Farm Bill Would Help China Exploit the U.S. as an Agricultural Colony – “A provision in the 2026 House Farm Bill targeting state animal welfare laws would block U.S. citizens from regulating factory farms controlled by Chinese-owned Smithfield. The U.S. is quickly becoming an agricultural colony of foreign countries. China owns Smithfield, the largest U.S. pork producer; Brazilian JBS is the biggest U.S. beef company; and U.S. corn farmers are the main market for the pesticide companies Syngenta (ChemChina), and BASF and Bayer (German corporations that were part of the Nazi I.G. Farben conglomerate). What if China doesn’t want to comply with bans on caging pregnant and nursing sows to sell its pork? What if Brazil doesn’t like Environmental Protection Agency rules on water pollution from its factory farm feedlots? These foreign companies go to the U.S. Congress to demand relief! Incredibly, our members of Congress comply, crafting special provisions to exempt bad actors from rules the states and the courts are trying to enforce.” – Alexis Baden-Mayer

U.S. Is Being Driven Out Of The Middle East, Iran Is Demolishing Israel, Hegseth Is A War Criminal—Is Netanyahu Dead? – “It only took Donald Trump one year to show the world the depth of his malignant narcissism, total servitude to Benjamin Netanyahu and unfitness for office. This is not about whether people were justified in supporting Trump over Kamala Harris in the presidential elections in November of 2024. After a candidate—any candidate—is elected president, the election is over, and governance begins. The problem with both Republicans and Democrats is that, because they voted for their respective candidates, they feel some kind of “holy” compulsion to support that candidate (then president) for the next four years, regardless of how unconstitutional, illegal or immoral his actions and policies are. The presidential election of 2024 is over. It’s time to quit justifying Trump’s illegal—even maniacal—actions by glibly saying, “Should I have voted for Harris?”” – Chuck Baldwin – GREAT POINT FROM CHUCK!!!!

Netanyahu May Be Dead, and FBI Warns Iran May Be about to Attack California! – “Rumors are flying that Iran successfully targeted and killed Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu in his own home, but there is nothing in the mainstream media. Some barely-known alternative sites (like my own, so no offense intended for being barely known) are reporting it. However, there has been no confirmation by either the US or Israel of the assassination. On the other hand, there has also been no denial, and Bibi hasn’t been seen since his residence was struck.” – David Haggith

New Ayatollah’s First Message: Hormuz Strait Stays Closed, Warns ‘More Fronts’ Could Open – Tyler Durden

SOMEBODY is lying through his teeth about the Iran War right now!! – Jon Rappoport

Iran Cows US Navy into Submission in Hormuz Standoff – “The biggest story of the day is that Iran has muscled its way into both cowing and overpowering the US Navy into submission in the Strait of Hormuz. But first, let’s back up a little bit and acknowledge that the IRGC appears to have went fully “to the mattresses” in this war. They are no longer playing games, and no longer willing to compromise.” – Simplicius

Trump, The Greek God of War Ares, Is Fighting China via Iran… mythology – “Why does Trump believe China is a global enemy? China is a soft-communist country with a pinch of socialism and capitalism thrown in for good measure. Trump’s America is a shadow-communist country with a dollop of Genghis Khan terrorism and a limping smidge of capitalism in name only. A Democratic Republic may be what is written in our Constitution, but America is and has been operating within an illusion of Congressional Law for some time. It is only now that the shadows are stepping forward to claim their undue honor and throne of thorns.” – Helena Glass

Donroe Doctrine: Trump Hosts Shield Of Americas Summit Reaffirming Western Hemispheric Hegemony – “Cuba appears to be the next country the U.S. plans to topple and takeover, as the administration helps starve the country to force a regime change” – The WinePress

The Forever War Empire Has An Achilles’ Heel and Iran Just Shot It Through – “Iran is destroying the ability of the US to wage Forever War” – Ohio Barbarian

The Strategic Folly of a (Serious) US Ground Invasion of Iran – “It simply can’t be done. The logistical foundation required for invasion simply does not exist. Operation Desert Storm required six months of uncontested buildup in 1991. Today, US forward bases across the region are under active bombardment, with mounting casualties and degraded operational capacity. The notion that America could amass the hundreds of thousands of troops, thousands of armored vehicles, and millions of tons of supplies needed for an Iranian invasion while its regional infrastructure is being systematically struck is fantasy. ” – Ashes of Pompeii

Democrats and the Iran War – “Bibi’s Government Is Right Here in the USA. In the main, Democrats are anti-Trump and pro-war against Iran. A typical example is Congressman Greg Landsman of Ohio. The New Yorker describes him as a “strong supporter of Israel.” (Shouldn’t Landsman be a strong supporter of Ohio?) Anyhow, Landsman received over $350K from AIPAC during the last election cycle, by far his biggest donor, so it’s no surprise he’s a staunch supporter of Bibi and Trump’s war on Iran. But Landsman says it’s not a war! So please tell all those Iranian schoolchildren we killed that it’s not a war; rather, it’s just a “very limited operation” and a “military intervention.”” – Bill Astore

Three Oil Tankers on Fire Following Trump’s Advice, Crude Jumps Again – “Hey, I thought the war was over.” – Mish

How Russia and India approach the war on Iran – “The Russia-Iran strategic partnership – even if does not include a military treaty – works in several interlocked levels. This is part 2 of a two-part analysis. President Putin sent a gracious message to Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, personally congratulating him on his election as Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Words do matter: After stressing foreign “aggression” and continuity of government, Putin reiterated the strategic partnership in no uncertain terms: Every day that the Strait of Hormuz remains closed – and it will remain closed – Russia captures extra market share, anywhere, at a premium, without breaking a sweat. Secretary of Iranian Security Council Ali Larijani made it crystal clear in several languages, including Russian: when it comes to Hormuz, there are “open opportunities for everyone”, as in partnership with allies Russia and China; and it’s “a dead-end for warmongers”, as in the Epstein Syndicate and other hostile entities. Russia certainly does not need the Strait of Hormuz open. Still, it received a nod and a wink from Larijani acknowledging their partnership.” – Pepe Escobar  – PART 1 WAS LINKED YESTERDAY!!!

After 12 days, Trump’s war stands at crossroads: Duped once again into making ill-advised attack on Iran with no winnable strategy in hand, president is faced with dilemma — how to exit with ‘win’ – “Iranian regime, described by Washington neocons as weak and vulnerable, proves once again to be resilient and poised for a long and disruptive war capable of causing vast economic pain to many nations” – Leo Hohmann

RAPE? ASSAULT? HARASSMENT? A COLLOSAL CONGRESSIONAL COVERUP! – “The problem was with Bill Clinton, the scandals and rumored scandals, the incubating ones and the dying ones never ended. Whatever moral compass the president was consulting was leading him in the wrong direction. His closets were full of skeletons just waiting to burst out. Today they voted to keep sexual harassment records buried, and they did it together. The establishment always protects itself, never the victims. Rep. Nancy Mace. On March 4, 2026, the U.S. House of Representatives voted 357–65 to effectively kill a resolution introduced by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) that would have required the House Ethics Committee to publicly disclose investigations into sexual misconduct and harassment involving members of Congress.” – Kelleigh Nelson

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

U.S. gas prices rise to about $3.58 a gallon as Iran tensions continue to shake oil markets – “Gas prices continued to rise across the U.S. as the war with Iran continues.

That marks another daily increase as prices have steadily trended upward in recent weeks.” – Katrina Morgan and Chris McCrory

Paging Nostradamus: You Have a Margin Call – “If conditions change beneath the surface, the folks behind the curtain will be powerless to do anything but make it worse.” – Charles Hugh Smith

Here’s how (and when) gold could reach $10,000 – “But there is a distinct possibility that, like Rome in the 3rd century, America’s trading partners could rapidly move away from the US dollar. Again, I’m in no way rooting for this to happen. But some evidence is already in front of us. The gold price is an obvious example. Gold isn’t some sh!t-coin or meme stock that suddenly became popular in a Redditt chat room. Gold’s rise, as we have been predicting and reporting for years, is because foreign governments and central banks have been losing confidence in the United States.They saw an American president shake hands with thin air. They saw the humiliating withdrawal from Afghanistan. They saw the Treasury Department routinely freeze US dollar assets that were held by foreign countries. They saw eye-popping US budget deficits and a Congress unwilling to stop it. All of this prompted foreign governments and central banks to reallocate just a tiny portion of their US dollar assets into gold. And just that tiny (few hundred billion dollars) reallocation caused gold to hit $5,000. ” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Small Orchard Planning for Long-Term Food Security – “Most preppers focus heavily on gardens, and for good reason. Annual vegetables provide immediate food production and can be scaled quickly. But gardens require constant replanting, seed supply, and labour every season. Fruit trees operate on a different timeline. A well-planned orchard can produce food for 40 to 60 years or more, often with relatively little maintenance once established.” – denob

How to Survive a Terrorist Attack – “We are living in fractious times right now, and during times like this, the likelihood of terror attacks here on our soil becomes greater. Add to this the open border of recent years and it seems like all the chess pieces are in place. ” – Daisy Luther

Alternative Fuels and Lighting For When The SHTF – “Something that we always stress to fellow preppers, is that “when the SHTF, what you have is all you will have,” stressing the importance of permanently sustainable and renewable things like wood heat, electricity from solar panels, etc. Once you have that covered, however, it is worthwhile to consider that some of the disaster scenarios we may have to cope with may be temporary – whether a weather event such as a snowstorm or tornado, or something medium-term like an EMP event affecting a smaller town where the residents are likely to pull together and survive. A limited-supply fuel may still be valuable in such a scenario, as long as you realize that it is limited and you (hopefully) have a more permanent long-term approach also in place.” – Tractorguy

A Navy SEAL Would Never Use This Gun – “There is a reason elite warriors choose their weapons with extreme care. A Navy SEAL does not carry a firearm based on brand loyalty, marketing hype, or internet rumors. Every weapon in their hands has been tested under brutal conditions, such as extreme weather exposure or urban combat. They know that if a gun fails once, it is gone. So when you see a firearm heavily promoted to civilians as “military grade,” it is worth asking a hard question: Would a Navy SEAL actually trust his life to it?” – Jack

VERSE FOR THE DAY 

2 Peter 2:1    But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
