THE BIG PICTURE

The Insanity of War Exposed by the Most Murderous Country in History – “The most heinous and prolific nation of war and slaughter, the ‘United’ States, is once again, or should I say still after all these years, continuing to wage war at every level possible, for as long as is possible, in order to cause as much misery as possible to this world it claims to lord over. The evil Trump is taking it up a notch or two, but the outcome will be the same; destruction of human morality in the face of extreme aggression, violence, murder, and terrorism at the expense of innocents.” – Gary D. Barnett

Countdown to Global Collapse Has Begun – “How Iran war is leading to economic depression, starvation and WW3. Bombing Iran into submission or regime change fundamentally misunderstands the Islamic Republic’s internal dynamics. Quite the contrary: external bombardments generate powerful nationalism. The U.S. and Israeli decapitation strikes validate the regime’s decades-long narrative that foreign powers seek to destroy the Iranian nation. Faced with the reality of foreign bombs, the Iranian populace prioritizes national survival over political reform.” – Sarah Connor

Are Trump and Hegseth carrying out holy war in accordance with Bible prophecies leading to ‘Armageddon’ and ‘return of Jesus’? – “A range of commanders across all branches of the U.S. military are reportedly telling their troops not to fear a war with Iran because “President Trump has been anointed by Jesus” to “light the signal fire” that will lead to “Armageddon and the return of Jesus Christ.” A complaint was filed by a non-commissioned officer and provided to the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF), which from Saturday morning through Monday evening received and logged more than 110 complaints about commanders in every branch of the military putting forth these troubling messages to their troops. The number of complaints had doubled as of Tuesday. Is this an attempt by Team Trump to co-opt Christianity for their own geopolitical purposes? And if so, will true Christians stand up to Trump and rebuke him? I’m guessing most will not, but a remnant will be fearless in calling him out.” – Leo Hohmann

50 Years of Secrets: Why You Should Care About the FBI’s ‘Prohibited Access’ Files – “In an echo of Seymour Hersh’s famed ‘Family Jewels’ story, the FBI has been caught hiding a generation of secrets.” – Matt Taibbi\

“Patterns of Life” – “You may have heard about how the Israelis knew exactly when and where to go after – to kill – Iran’s religious leader, the Ayatollah Khamenei. They used traffic cameras to keep track of his movements, so as to know when and where to kill him: Sources close to Israeli intelligence claim that Mossad hacked into almost all of Tehran’s traffic camera network, to keep tabs on Khamenei and his bodyguards, It’s unclear exactly how long this traffic camera spy operation went on for, but it’s said that Mossad spent years spying on high-value targets. The operation was intended to build a ‘pattern of life’ for Khamenei and his bodyguards, including who they were guarding, their routines, and even where they lived. The same traffic cameras used to ascertain the ayatollah’s “patterns of life” are also ascertaining our “patterns of life.” Think about it. Why is it that cameras are being emplaced all over the place? The benign explanation put forward is that they are just being emplaced to better manage the ebb and flow of traffic. That there’s a malignant aspect to it is easy enough to establish since the cameras are identifying specific vehicles – and so specific people – via license plates and (in the case of Flock cameras) more than just that. The Flock cameras note such identifying characteristics of particular vehicles, such as body damage, even bumper stickers. Obviously, such identifiers have nothing to do with easing congestion. They have everything to do with identification – and much more than just that.” – Eric Peters  -THE ARTICLE BELOW BY JOSEPH DELVES INTO THE SAME TERRITORY!!!

 Israel’s Debt Since 2003 Has Decreased 40% While America’s Has Increased by 550% – “Is the DoD funding Israel’s economy. Hegseth has just announced that the 3-4 day war that was then the 1-2 week war that was then a 4-6 week war is now an 8 week war – to be updated… The war insurance for the tankers that can’t get thru the Strait of Hormuz will be picked up by Trump Taxpayers and is valued at $1million per journey one way. Of course, should a tanker and all aboard be destroyed, the insurer’s cost (Taxpayers) is estimated to be roughly $300 million for the oil and $160 million for the tanker itself – not to mention the crew of 30-35 who would demand compensation. The Pundits call this a win for Trump…” – Helena Glass

The Zionist Who Predicted Zionism’s Self-Destruction (VIDEO) – “Hannah Arendt warned in 1944 that Zionism’s turn to colonial domination and great-power dependency at the Atlantic City conference of American Zionists would produce permanent conflict—and ultimately destroy Zionism’s moral and political foundations.” – History.Culture.projects

Bees And Butterflies Are Being Killed In Mass And No One Is Talking About It, While Trump Prioritizes Glyphosate Production While Spraying The Skies – “There are many studies that directly correlate chemical herbicide use, 5G and EMFs to not just the deaths of bees (and butterflies), but impairs their behaviors and functions.” – The WinePress

 

 

NEWS

TRUMP: “F*CK THE PEASANTS” – “Oil is now $92 per barrel. One week ago it was $65 per barrel. For the maff challenged, that is a 41% increase in one week. But, don’t worry, Netanyahu’s lapdog isn’t worried about gas prices. It doesn’t inconvenience him in the least. His billionaire pedophile buddies are profiting, so all is well.” – Jim Quinn

This Is Even Dumber And Crazier Than The Iraq War – “This is the new George W Bush. Trump is what Bush metamorphoses into when it emerges from its red cocoon. The crazier the US empire gets, the more insane its managers are becoming.” – Caitlin Johnstone

“Most Dangerous Geopolitical Blitz Since Bretton Woods”: Trump Says Cuba’s Communist Regime Is Next To Fall – “”We’ve got plenty of time, but Cuba’s ready,” President Trump told CNN in an interview on Friday morning. The president told CNN reporter Dana Bash that Havana will “fall pretty soon” and that he will “place Marco over there.” ” – Tyler Durden

China backs Cuba against ‘external interference’ as foreign minister visits Beijing – Reuters

People Are Wondering Who Is Running The White House’s X and Tik Tok Accounts, Running War Communucations -” “Wake Up. Daddy’s Home?” The White House is using Spongebob Squarepants to joke about attacking Iran.” – Celia Farber

Analysis Suggests School Was Hit Amid U.S. Strikes on Iranian Naval Base – “a body of evidence assembled by The New York Times — including newly released satellite imagery, social media posts and verified videos — indicates the school building was severely damaged by a precision strike that occurred at the same time as attacks on an adjacent naval base operated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.” – Malachy Browne and Aaron Boxerman

How a Terror Cult, Zionist Oligarchs, and a Fake Pentagon Tough Guy Led Trump’s March into Hell (VIDEO) with Max Blumenthal – Judge Andrew Napolitano / Judging Freedom  – ANOTHER GOOD ONE WITH MAX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Malignant Narcissism of U.S. Government Officials – “Dangerous personality traits in officials who possess the power to wage war. In the U.S. political arena, our ranking politicians are constantly projecting their own Shadows onto their opponents, both at home and abroad. Observe Lyndsey Graham’s affect when he fulminates about the evil of Vladimir Putin or the now deceased Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. I suspect he knows nothing about either man and that his entire conception of them is a shadow-projected cartoon.” – John Leake

Iran Blinds US With Unprecedented Campaign of Strikes on Region’s Strategic Radars – “We get back to the Iran conflict as there are so many things to cover, a single report doesn’t do it justice. First we must mention the current temperature in Iran, CNN sent a correspondent who confirmed that things on the ground appear stable. There are no signs of panic or shortages anywhere: Iranians on the streets of Tehran also appear upbeat: The biggest buzz of the day came from Iranian FM Araghchi’s interview with NBC, wherein he stunned the slack-jawed presstitute by calmly asserting that Iran welcomes a US ground invasion in a must-see exchange:” – Simplicius

House Votes Down Iran War Powers Measure, Soon On Heels Of Similar Senate Res. Defeat – “So we’re not even going to have a real debate among the people’s representatives? The House on Thursday rejected an effort to advance legislation that would restrict President Trump from using further military action in Iran. The failed vote amounts to an endorsement of Trump’s military campaign in Iran from Congress, which has the constitutional authority to declare war.” – Tyler Durden  – THE PEOPLE’S REPRESENTATIVES OR ISRAEL’S REPRESENTATIVES, SINCE 75%  OF THE PEOPLE DON’T EVEN BACK THIS WAR ACCORDING TO THE LATEST POLLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Under Orders From Israel (VIDEO) with Phil Giraldi – “Do you think that Netanyahu personally forced Trump’s hand by saying in saying we’re going in on Friday night, you better back us or do you think this whole thing was planned the whole time and Rubio just came up with this as one of his many absurd excuses?  Well, it could have been it could have been both. It could have been planned which I rather suspect and agree with those who are making that argument but also the actual timing how it happened. Obviously we have that last minute interruption when when  Netanyahu showed up in Washington or showed up in Florida and  that I think is probably where the timing came into it. This was obviously going to happen, but it was just a question of exactly how they would play it and  exactly what time it or what date or under what circumstances I think is probably more important.” – Judge Andrew Napolitano / Judging Freedom

It’s Believable That Russia Might Be Helping Iran Target The US’ Regional Assets – “This latest claim respectively conforms to the fears and fantasies of Russia’s foes and friends alike.” – Andrew Korybko

The Public Fires Kristi Noem – “That’s not the story you’ll hear from Washington. Something tells me Americans were more incensed by the flagrant and needless killing of two American protesters than some sketchy contract award or incomprehensible Trumpworld beef that the media will point to.” – Ken Klippenstein

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Oil-War Inflation Blows Up Bigly- “Prices on crude and at the pump are rising relentlessly. Contracts abolished. Tankers and refineries on fire. Putin threatening Russian fuel cutoff. China embargoing its own oil from exports.” – David Haggith

Everything Is Breaking at Once — And the Worst May Be Ahead – “The markets appear to be heading into a perfect storm. There are few if any indications that War in Iran will end soon or easily. Despite the U.S. and Israel striking numerous Iranian targets (both facilities and personnel), Iran continues launch missiles at energy infrastructure throughout the Middle East. From a strategic perspective, there is a LOT that can go wrong here. Iran is extremely rich in natural resources (it has the fourth largest oil reserves in the world, 2nd largest natural gas reserves in the world, the largest zinc and lead reserves in the world, and is a major source of copper, titanium, rare earth elements and more). It is also both ethnically diverse AND surrounded by nations that have their eyes on its assets.” – Graham Summers, MBA

Collapse: US Loses 92K Jobs In February After Projected 50K Growth Falls Flat. Tariff Revenue Funds Accrues Interest While In Limbo – “But don’t worry, we’re booming. Right?” – The WinePress

It Was All A Mirage: 2.5 Million Native-Born US Workers Were Just Revised Away – “One of Donald Trump’s core pre-election promises (along with cracking down on immigration and no more foreign wars) was to boost employment for local-born Americans at the expense of the record employment for foreign-born, mostly illegal, workers. And for a while it worked: The data showed that since Trump entered the White House “the number of foreign born workers has slumped from a record 33.7 million in March 2025 to 32.1 million, a drop of $1.6 million. This has been offset by a slow but consistent increase in native-born workers which had been unchanged for six years since 2019 until the start of 2025, at which point it started to rise again, and has increased from 131.2 million in March 2025 to a new record high of 133.2 million in September.” But perhaps the most important revision is that the entire boom in native-born employment was fake news: a statistical mirage spawned by some overzealous BLS staffer’s excel model. ” – Tyler Durden

Will the Iran War Set Off a Recession? – “Turning Donald Trump’s totally awesome 1980’s boom into a 1970’s quagmire? As soon as the bombs started falling over Teheran, American markets crashed. Bonds fell. Silver plunged. Even gold is down. Oil, of course, jumped from $67 to $75 per barrel.” – Peter St Onge

Another One Bites The Dust – “Bloomberg reported today that BlackRock has abruptly wiped out the value of a loan inside its private credit arm, marking a roughly $25 million position tied to Infinite Commerce Holdings at zero. And you don’t need a Yale PhD in Economics to know there’s a big difference between $25,000,000 and $0,000,000. Just three months earlier, the junior debt had been valued at 100 cents on the dollar. In other words, a loan that appeared fully performing at the end of the third quarter is now considered worthless. But the story isn’t $25 million going “poof” into thin air, it’s how quick it happened.” – Quoth the Raven

Gold shortages in China – “ICBC and Agricultural Bank of China have run out of investment gold bars. And silver premiums over London spot are 13%. Comex silver contract is sinking into irrelevance.” – Alasdair Macleod

The Great Silver Drain: Global Vaults Are Collapsing—COMEX on Fumes, China Nearly Wiped Out! – “The world’s physical silver is draining fast, yet miners trade at basement valuations. The revaluation storm is coming” – The Silver Academy

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

What I’m Growing This Year – Part 1 – “Time to start the garden and not spend time watching world news. I can’t change a thing that is happening, but I can grow food and pray. I must stay focused on the farm and move forward rather than spend time fretting and scanning “the news”. Fear can be paralyzing. Growing food and praying are the most important things I can do, at this time, in this place.” – SaraSue

Preparing for Fuel Rationing: How to Plan Trips, Storage, and Backup Transport – Bob Rodgers  – COULD VERY EASILY HAPPEN IF OIL GETS TOO EXPENSIVE DUE TO THE WAR, ALSO SEE DAISY’S ADVICE BELOW!!!!!!!!!!

10 Ways to Cope with High Gas Prices – “Events in the Middle East are taking their toll at the gas pumps here in the United States, and I think we can expect that trend to continue. Not only is the price of absolutely everything going up, but so is the price of going to get those things, as well as the price of going to work. Below, find some suggestions that may help you to reduce your fuel expenses. ” – Daisy Luther

When Spring “Ladybugs” Invade Your Cabin – “The first warm stretch of early spring hits, and suddenly the walls start moving. At first it’s just a speck near the window. Then another near the ceiling light. And before you know it, those “cute little ladybugs” that disappeared into your siding last fall come marching back like they own the place. Only here’s the catch — most of them aren’t the gentle red garden helpers we grew up with. They’re multicolored Asian lady beetles. And when they wake up inside a tight off-grid home, they can turn cozy into chaotic fast. They swarm. They bite. They stink if you squash them.” – Bill Heid  – ALSO SEE BILL’S SIMILAR ARTICLE LINKED ON 9/27/25!!!!!

Severe Weather Preparedness: 7 Things Every Family Should Do Before Storm Season – “Severe weather is part of life in many parts of the country. Tornadoes, hurricanes, flash floods, and powerful thunderstorms with devastating windshear can arrive with little warning. The good news is that preparing for these events doesn’t require expensive gear or extreme measures. In fact, a handful of practical steps can make a tremendous difference.” – Lisa Bedford

THE BIG PICTURE

When Most Countries on Earth Do the Exact Same Thing at the Exact Same Time — It Is a Globalism Trap – “This is not a new concept, but one that has reached its pinnacle this century. The most defining moment of this evil collusive partnership of nations was exposed for all to see during the fake ‘covid’ hoax beginning in earnest in 2020. It was not the first time nor the last, but the curtain was pulled back and the government ‘Oz’ was fully undressed without apology; an open preview of the one world technocracy being structured as the new multi-technate order. At this point, the central controlling technate for this world takeover is the Technate of America, or the North American Technate. The plans for this coup were laid almost 100 years ago, but now are becoming a reality.” – Gary D. Barnett

How To Get Away with Murder – “10 steps that shield violent criminals from accountability and have killed rule of law under progressive jurisdictions. America’s justice system has been subverted. If you are a member of a protected class, you can get away with anything in a Bolshevik jurisdiction. Let’s put ourselves in a criminal’s shoes. Here are ten ways that the justice system protects you so that it is almost impossible for you to be sentenced to real punishment. Please note that this does not apply to conservatives – they will be thrown into the gulag for the same charges. They are bad people for noticing these patterns. The purpose of a system is what it does.” – Yuri Bezmenov

The Carefully Contrived Spontaneity of the “Shocking” Epstein Files Release – “Whenever a “scandal” like the Epstein files dominates the news, we can be certain that it is meant as a distraction from something more sinister on the horizon. The Epstein files have been in the hands of the F.B.I. for eight years or more. Then why have redacted files been released just recently? Cui bono?” – Edward Curtin

The Epstein Files: A Peek Behind the Dark Curtain, pt. 2 – “Cannibals, Jerky, and Human Hunting, oh my!” – Donald Jeffries  –  GOOD READ FROM DONALD, PART 1 WAS PREVIOUSLY LINKED ON 02/08/26!!!

A Field Guide to the Abuse of the Epstein Economy – “The Neuroscience, Economics, and Psychology of a System That Made Monsters Inevitable The files, as they stand, have already done “considerable” damage to some carefully constructed reputations. The Guardian — not historically a publication one associates with conspiratorial thinking — has run the headline that the Epstein files prove a large-scale global conspiracy really does exist. ” – A Lily Bit

European Central Bank Targets Mid-2027 For CBDC Pilot, Complete Rollout In 2029, Will Begin Selecting Licensed Payment Providers Soon – “We aim to be ready for a potential first issuance of the digital euro during 2029.” – The WinePress

WAR ABROAD, POISON AT HOME: Trump’s Executive Order to support Bayer & Israel Chemicals Ltd., the monopoly suppliers of phosphorus for weapons and weed killers – “Trump’s new Executive Order, “PROMOTING THE NATIONAL DEFENSE BY ENSURING AN ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF ELEMENTAL PHOSPHORUS AND GLYPHOSATE-BASED HERBICIDES,” reveals Bayer-Monsanto is a military contractor.” – Alexis Baden-Mayer

I told you so: Prasad-Moderna standoff lasted less than a week. FDA folded. Moderna’s mRNA flu poison will be rubber stamped later this year. – “Now I am even more convinced that the refusal to file was just a PR stunt, designed to generate MAHA headlines from all the usual bootlickers “ooooh, aaah, our heroes are fighting the evil BigPharmaaaah!” ” – Sasha Latypova

Trump Signs Bill Allocating $5.5 Billion For The Next Plandemic, Creates Backdoor Pathway For Continued Collaboration With The WHO – “It pays “for the transportation, medical care, treatment, and other related costs of persons quarantined or isolated under Federal or State quarantine law.”” – The WinePress  – OH, BUT WE GOT OUT OF THE WHO, REMEMBER, ANOTHER JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YOUR RIGHT TO KNOW: Big Food’s War On Free Speech – “Eat up and shut up. That’s what Big Food wants us to do. Since the 1990s, they’ve been passing “Food Libel” and “Ag-Gag” laws to keep us from knowing where our food comes from and how it’s produced.” – Alexis Baden-Mayer

Pharmaceutical Mass Murder With Psychiatric Drugs – “ISince the 1990s, many high-profile shootings have involved individuals under treatment with SSRIs, SNRIs, benzodiazepines, or stimulants. Toxicology or medical record data occasionally surface later—often buried in court documents, but by the time they do, news coverage has moved on. n Every Case of Mass Killings, Never Mentioned Are the Pharma Drugs Shooters Are Taking” – Dr. Sircus

If You’re a Thinker—You’re a Non-Conformist – “Following geo-politics doesn’t make me grumpy, but researching a gloomy world assures gloomy articles. Whether Trump is as stupid as he seems, or simply paralyzed by his need for Netanyahu’s support and Miriam Adelson’s money? Beyond that, do you imagine Oval Office discussions having to do with destroying nations/conducting regime-change, which also ask whether such actions are constitutional or in any sense, just? If not—who the hell does Trump think he is? What’s new with Trump’s taking over the world campaign? Trump has a plan. He will contain/constrain China by cutting their ability to get necessary energy. This, of course, is illegal under international law (and not mandated executive powers), but with checks and balances haplessly strewn across the game board, who is there to care—that matters? Seizing ships is new. ” – Erik @ neverhadaboss.com  – A GOOD ONE FROM ERIK ABOVE AND ERIC BELOW (THE TWO ERIC/Ks) AS I CALL THEM!!!!!

The Spanbergering – “As you no doubt know, Virginia has a new – very Left – governor and the very Left now controls the entirety of Virginia’s state government. This is interesting because the Left is mostly confined to the urban hive surrounding the federal capital and a few diaspora hives such as Richmond. It is interesting because if you look at one of those red-blue maps that depicts the political lay of the land, the state as a whole is overwhelmingly red – meaning not Left. Yet the Left controls the state – which means it controls, basically, everything going on in the state. Leftists especially dislike those who are not of their tribe – in particular, those who are not part of their apparat – having weapons of any kind but especially firearms. Those are for the praetorians who guard Leftists – and impose Leftism. That is why the Left, in Virginia, is in the process of illegalizing firearms in Virginia – but only as regards the not-Left that is to be (so it is hoped) rendered disarmed and so helpless against the Left. I live in a rural SW Virginia county where most people own more firearms than they do cars. Yet there is almost no “gun” crime to speak of. People still leave their homes unlocked – because it is safe for them to do so. Could that safety have anything to do with the fact that anyone contemplating a home invasion understands that he will likely not be dealing with disarmed and so defenseless homeowners? Spanberger is similarly protected. But she intends to assure everyone not of her class isn’t.” – Eric Peters

Trump’s border czar says a ‘small’ security force will stay in Minnesota – “A “small” federal security force will remain in Minnesota “for a short period of time” after the immigration enforcement crackdown ends, according to White House border czar Tom Homan. “We already removed well over 1,000 people, and as of Monday-Tuesday, we’ll remove several hundred more. We’ll get back to the original footprint,” Homan said, speaking on CBS’ Face the Nation on Sunday.” – Alina Selyukh

Former Prince Andrew arrested following Epstein files revelations – “Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on his birthday Thursday on suspicion of misconduct in public office.” – Alexander Smith and Jean-Nicholas Fievet

Prince Andrew’s 66th Birthday Symbolism – “All the King’s horses and all the King’s men won’t be able to put Prince Humpty back together again. Earlier today, the title-less Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on the morning of his 66th birthday by Thames Valley Police on suspicion of misconduct in public office. A curious charge and one not accompanied by any others as far as I can see—so far. No doubt, the choice of date to carry out his arrest was done with a little symbolism thrown in for good measure. To what end—who knows. Misconduct in public office is a common law crime in British law that theoretically can carry a maximum prison sentence of life imprisonment. Why didn’t Thames Valley police come knocking on his door in November 2019 after the Maitlis interview with an arrest warrant for misconduct in public office? Have the facts and evidence available in his case materially changed in the intervening six years? The only thing to really alter is the arrival of more publicity arising from further Epstein file releases and a couple of additional photos of Prince Andrew in very compromising positions.” – Gerry O’Neill  – GOOD READ FROM GERRY!!!

Another Undeclared Unconstitutional War?- “Iran in the Crosshairs. Strangely, nowhere in this article is it mentioned that U.S. military attacks on Iran legally require a Congressional declaration of war. Apparently, it’s all up to Mr. Trump and Israel whether Iran gets hammered soon. We the people have absolutely no say. The U.S. Constitution simply doesn’t matter. Iran poses no direct threat to U.S. national security. There is no clear and present danger; no defensible reason to launch yet another attack on Iran. Yet it seems those attacks will soon be coming,” – Bill Astore

Bad Boy Gives his Bad Report Card a Bad Report – “One way a bad boy might deal with a bad report card is to claim the teacher is lying or doesn’t know what she is talking about. Most bad boys, however, would be smart enough to figure out they can’t sell that excuse to mom or dad. Yet, that is the flimsy excuse Trump’s economic chief Hassett gave today for the bad report card delivered by the Fed over the damage being done by the Trump Tariffs to American businesses and consumers. White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett said Wednesday that the authors of a recent New York Federal Reserve paper that found U.S. companies and consumers are shouldering most of the tariff burden should be “disciplined.”” – David Haggith  – YEP, IT’S ALL THE MESSAGER’S FAULT!!!!!

Antifa’s days may finally be numbered – “But let’s not get too excited yet, either.” – Tom Knighton

The Rise of Thomas Massie — “A Libertarian disciple of Ron Paul has almost overnight become a political star. Israel and President Trump probably aren’t happy about this surprising development. From previous interviews with Rep. Massie, I know that the government of Israel, or at least its main lobbying group, the AIPAC, has made Massie target No. 1 for removal from the political stage. By now, everyone who follows politics also knows that President Trump has also gone out of his way to to try to make sure Massie is defeated in his upcoming re-election bid.” – Bill Rice Jr.

ECONOMIC NEWS

U.S. trade deficit is tariff-proof. Imports jump to record high in 2025. – “U.S. posts its third-largest trade deficit ever. China is a big loser, while Vietnam and Taiwan are winners. High tariffs were supposed to slash chronically large U.S. trade deficits. Turns out they really didn’t.” – Jeffry Bartash

Pending Home Sales Drop to Record Low in the Data, from Already Low Levels, on Big Drops in the South & Midwest – ““Improving affordability conditions have yet to induce more buying activity”: National Association of Realtors.” – Wolf Richter

No! The National Debt Problem Isn’t Getting Better! – “I see a lot of people out there in the world of social media claiming that Trump is solving the debt problem. One woman insisted that “Trump is paying down the debt!” However, despite all the talk about DOGE and spending cuts, despite all the chatter about tariff revenue plugging the budget hole, the national debt keeps getting bigger and bigger. Last October, U.S. government debt eclipsed $38 trillion. Just four months later, it’s approaching $39 trillion. Just since the first of the year, the national debt has ballooned by $300 billion. It rose by $145.7 billion in January alone. That’s roughly $50 billion per day!” – Mike Maharrey

Structural Shifts in a Still-Dollarized World – “The current state of de-dollarization resembles a long-term structural drift rather than a financial rupture; danger is not imminent, and the dollar remains at the center of global payments, funding, and trade.” – Peter C. Earle

Mortgage Recast Versus Refinancing: Which Works For You? – “There are ways to lower your monthly mortgage by using recasting or refinancing. Each option works differently, so it’s important to understand how they compare. Mortgage recasting is when you make a lump-sum payment to your principal balance. Once done, your lender then calculates a new, lower monthly payment. Your interest rate stays the same.” – Anne Johnson

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Why Survival Skills Matter More Than Gear: 5 Lessons From 25 Days on History Channel’s Alone The Beast – Jason Salyer

Community Defense in Canada: Building a Trusted Network Before Crisis Hits – “In Canada, real security rarely comes from isolation. It comes from coordination. Whether we’re talking about rural fuel theft, extended power outages, wildfire evacuations, or civil disruptions, the households that fare best are the ones that are connected — quietly, deliberately, and legally. Preparedness culture sometimes romanticizes the lone homestead. But even a well-equipped family cannot maintain 24-hour awareness, manage mechanical failures, respond to medical emergencies, and monitor their surroundings indefinitely. Fatigue alone makes that impossible.” – denob

Prepper Blacklist: 10 Items They Don’t Want You To Buy – “When it comes to emergency preparedness, most of us are just trying to prepare for the worst and learn how to take care of our families in a crisis. We’re not looking for trouble. But what if some of the very tools we rely on in emergencies are raising red flags? What if buying certain survival items is enough to land you on a list you never knew existed? Nowadays, nothing you do on the Internet is private. Even if you use a VPN, companies like Palantir and Microsoft can find ways to track and record everything you do, especially everything you purchase.” – Alan Urban

Late-Winter Bee Survival: The 60-Day Danger Zone Every Off-Grid Keeper Must Beat – Bill Heid

Mobile Device Battery Management – Part 1 – “There have been many articles by myself and others on SurvivalBlog that discuss the use of mobile electronic devices such as radios, flashlights, cell phones, red dot sights, drones, cameras, etc. for emergency preparedness and disaster scenarios. The one thing all such devices have in common is that they require power of some sort, usually in the form of a battery, and without power those devices are about as useful as a paper weight. When using mobile electronics you want to be able to operate them as long as possible without having to change batteries or recharge them – that’s where battery capacity comes in. ” – J.M.

THE BIG PICTURE

Full-Out, Digitized Technocratic Rule Is not Around the Corner, It Is Next Door – “While most are only reading or watching headlines, and being completely distracted from the real agendas, concentrating on ‘mass shootings,’ the Epstein files, evil political figures, manipulated weather events, the U.S. military shooting down party balloons, Trump’s multiple lawsuits against everyone, Trump’s takeover of other countries, domestic war and the fake “war on drugs,” transgender madness, and right and left propaganda, this country and the world are in the middle of a monstrous transformation from what is mis-labeled as a ‘democratic’ constitutional republic, to a full out technocratic prison.” – Gary D. Barnett

The Courage to be Kind – “In an increasingly more competitive world, where people more and more reduce themselves to the number on their bank account, it seems to me that being kind to others is more important than ever. By being kind you let that mask of the busy, ambitious career man slip. For one moment you’re just a human being who is kind to another. Without any of the fancy titles and tools you use to distance yourself from them” – Essaystential  – THIS WAS WRITTEN BY A YOUNG MAN WHO IS 16 AND STARTED  A SUBSTACK. HAS MORE SENSE THAN SOME PEOPLE TWICE HIS AGE!!!!

A Closer Look at Wayfair [Pizzagate Part 7] – “Sometimes when you look again, you find new information…” – Agent131711   – THE DEEP DIVE INTO EPSTEIN AND PIZZAGATE BY  CONTINUES AS WAYFAIR IS REVISITED. LINKED ABOUT THIS 6 YEARS AGO ON 7/13/20

Journal Entries From 16 Year Old Epstein Victim Mentions Stolen Babies & High Profile Names – “Allegations in the journal corroborate with long-standing documentation that Epstein was involved in human cloning, eugenics, and transhumanist medical experiments.” – Joe Martino

From Leaks to Files: The Undeniable Proof Jeffrey Epstein Served Israeli Interests – And Why the Press Blames Everyone Else – Robert Inlakesh

All Eyes on YOU: A Christian Response to America’s Coming Surveillance State – “It’s a familiar refrain, yet more surveillance rarely prevents tragedy. It simply ensures the state has omniscience after the fact. The cure is always more control, and the cycle never ends. When a population is frightened or angry enough, they stop asking why and start demanding answers. The government is always happy to step in and save us from ourselves, offering an all-knowing, all-seeing, all-powerful cure for the very disease it facilitated in the first place.” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

Regulatory Capture 301: From Enforcement to Exemption: The New Administrative State – “While You’re Watching the Headlines, They’re Rewriting the Rules. The Point of No Return: How C-9 and C-15 Redefine the Rule of Law in Canada” – Connie Shields

ICE Masks Up in More Ways Than One – “Feds could be in your group chat. Homeland security is increasing the use of undercover techniques to infiltrate and interact with social media users in order to collect intelligence and target individuals, documents leaked to me reveal. The new program, called “masked engagement,” allows homeland security officers to assume false identities and interact with users—friending them, joining closed groups, and gaining access to otherwise private postings, photographs, friend lists and more.” – Ken Klippenstein

Can the MAHA Movement Overcome the Influence of Big Wireless? – “Last month, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) confirmed the agency is undertaking a study on the impact of electromagnetic radiation emitted by modern cell phones. This is part of President Trump’s Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda. However, the influence of Big Wireless corporations and friendly regulators—such as Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr—threatens to undermine efforts to revisit the science around mobile devices.” – Derrick Broze

 

 

NEWS

The Mafia Doctrine in Full Effect (VIDEO) with Max Blumenthal – “Netanyahu is in DC to tank Iran talks and drag Trump into a regional war—and Murdoch media is flooding the zone with Ziocons like Nikki Haley to push him over the edge. Trump sends carriers, Rubio pulls strings, and the sane voices are locked out. Meanwhile, Venezuela’s acting president is being blackmailed with secret indictments while the Trump admin smiles and steals her country’s oil. Cuba is under a genocidal siege—no fuel, children dying—and Rubio won’t even acknowledge their government exists. Russia and China are watching. ” – Judge Andrew Napolitano / Judging Freedom  – GOOD LISTEN WITH MAX AS USUAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sure, Take That Time-Out – “By shutting down the government for a minimum of ten days supposedly over funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Wile E. Coyote Democratic Party is about to blow up another Acme bomb in its mangy muzzle. For at least ten days of the shutdown, the senators will have to explain why proving that you are a citizen to vote is a bad idea — or conversely, why allowing non-citizens to vote is a good idea. So, thanks, Democrats, for sending the senators home to face their voters.” – James Howard Kunstler

EPSTAINED: Why Mainstream News is Protecting Epstein & Friends – “In 1976 a Movie Predicted the Media Would Protect the Elite and That is Exactly Where We are at Today” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

Controlled Demolition: Pam Bondi Has Meltdown Over Epstein, ‘The Dow Jones Is Over 50K Right Now!’ Trump Defends Bill Clinton From Attacks – “In an interview with NBC, Trump said, “It bothers that they’re going after Bill Clinton. I like Bill Clinton. […] He got me. He understood me.”” – The WinePress

Pam Bondi Has Hit Peak Kamala Harris-Level Cringe – “There’s no sugarcoating this one. AG Bondi blew it, bigly.” – Jenna McCarthy

Operation Metro Surge Immigration Crackdown in Minnesota Ends, Why? – “Color me skeptical of the reasons given.’ -Mish

Bad Bunny vs. Turning Point USA – “Nothing but super choices. In America 2.0, our Super Bowls feature 80 percent Black players. At least. This year was a bit of a modern anomaly, as both starting quarterbacks were White. The jock sniffing “journalists” don’t like that one bit. The game this year was incredibly boring. No big plays. No “stars” on either team. And the halftime act has become so overhyped that it often draws more attention than the game itself. But this year, the NFL and its esteemed producer Jay-Z vowed to come up with something even more offensive to White people. As the Black iconoclast Jason Whitlock says, Black people have been conditioned to like whatever makes White people upset. And especially what Donald Trump doesn’t like. So they found a Latino rapper named Bad Bunny. This Bad Bunny-Turning Point USA contest exemplifies the phony Left-Right paradigm, which continues to entice millions and coerce them into voting. With either of those choices, some U.S. leader is going to be, perhaps literally, holding the chair for Bibi Netanyahu. Whether the subpar “entertainment” is in Spanish or Ebonics, it’s being pushed and produced by the same non-Irish elite we’ve come to know and love. Sure, they have front man Jay-Z in this case, whose own shady past includes stabbing a record executive in 1999, a crime for which he was sentenced to three years probation. There are “installed” DEI puppets like Jay-Z throughout this ghettoized culture. The NFL is doing all it can to destroy itself. What kind of business model is it to consistently offend your primary demographic?” – Donald Jeffries – GOOD READ FROM DONALD!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump Gives Iran A Deadline For War That Roughly Corresponds With The End Of Ramadan – “Either way, it appears that a final showdown with Iran is coming. With each passing day, we get closer to the fateful moment when the missiles will start flying. We are being told that the U.S. buildup that we are witnessing in the Middle East right now is “unprecedented in scale”…” – Michael Snyder

I DON’T RECOGNIZE MY AMERICA ANYMORE! – “America is swimming with sharks, and the water is filled with blood. There are two deadly species, Jihadists and Marxists––aka Liberals––and they always work together. Not one of the Muslim Reps in Congress is a Republican. All are aligned with Stalinist Democrats (i.e., Communists). All were elected from areas where thousands of Islamists were planted by Barack Hussein Obama and Joseph Biden, the goal being to embrace globalism by compromising the America they hate.” – Kelleigh Nelson

Boasberg Wants Illegal Venezuelans Back to the U.S.–On Our Dime. – “In a full circle moment, and nearly one year after his infamous demand to return illegal Venezuelans already on plane out of U.S. airspace last year, Judge Boasberg again orders their return.” – Julie Kelly

Orban Is Right: Ukraine Has Truly Become Hungary’s Enemy – “It’s also the enemy of Europe’s conservative-nationalists, who’d be left leaderless if Kiev and Brussels succeed in ‘democratically deposing’ Orban during early April’s next parliamentary elections and replacing his leadership of their movement with a collection of anti-Russian Polish figures.” – Andrew Korybko

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Jobs Are Growing, Breitbart? – Narratives are seductive, and no one should consider themselves immune. Even alternative media outlets are at times guilty of peddling propaganda and not news. Sadly, Breitbart has served up a telling example of this, with John Carney’s puff piece about how well labor markets are doing under Trump.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Schooling The Donald On The BLS Jobs Scam – “There is nothing like a Jobs Wednesday report to remind you that the Donald is utterly clueless when it comes to economic reality. He got a report card for January that shows during his first 12 months, the US economy did not generate a single new job in the goods producing sector! That’s right. The jobs figure (SA) for the combined manufacturing, construction, mining and energy sectors (blue line) for January 2026 was 21,501,000, which was actually 58,000 below where it stood in January 2025 (21,559,000).It is thus hard to see how those “big beautiful tariffs” have generated the boom constantly ballyhooed by the White House. For crying out loud: The jobs count in the entire US industrial economy has been shrinking for the entire past year! ” – David Stockman

Silver slammed in thin trade – “Evidence is mounting that the silver shorts on Comex and London are desperate to close their positions. Will they use the Chinese New Year holiday to this end? In this report, we focus on silver, illustrating how silver derivatives on Comex and London are becoming irrelevant. This is because price discovery has moved to Shanghai, whose premiums are leading to physical metal being drained out of Comex and London vaults. But next week, with Shanghai closed for business, expect even greater price distortions in the days ahead. Indeed, Shanghai is closed as of now.” – Alasdair Macleod  – LINKED ABOUT THIS AS WELL AS YESTERDAY IN KING WORLD NEWS ARTICLE ABOUT THE CHINESE MARKET BEING DOWN FOR THE LUNAR NEW YEAR!!!

Why we’re running out of copper – “LME copper hit an all-time high of 13,300 per tonne ($6.03/lb) on Jan. 6, marking a 50% year-on-year increase. ” – Richard Mills

Homeownership “Wealth” Is a Fallacy – “It seems the housing market is destined to be the target of yet another administration’s clumsy tinkering. In another quiet-part-out-loud incident at the White House recently, the president was asked whether he would declare a national emergency in order to act on housing affordability. Trump responded that he doesn’t want house prices to go down because home valuations are such a large part of the “net worth” of homeowners, especially those in “their later years.” All of the aforementioned bad ideas rest on a flawed assumption—that housing is a financial investment. It isn’t, and never was. Housing is an asset that is essentially a consumption good. It is consumed each day by living in the house and all that entails. The community within which the home exists—and close relationships have been formed—can’t lightly be swapped out for another. Further, significant expense is incurred in maintenance, property taxes, insurance, and capital expenditures that forestall physical depreciation. From a simple numerical perspective, the idea of growing one’s wealth through home price appreciation is absurd. ” – Artis Shepherd

The Biggest Housing Bubble In The Entire History Of The United States Is In The Process Of Bursting – Michael Snyder

China’s Central Bank Keeps Buying Gold—and Dumping US Debt – “‘The reason gold is going up is because of what’s happening in China,’ says Michael Howell, founder of CrossBorder Capital” – Andrew Moran

“Everyone’s Grandma Is Selling The Silver Chandelier, Forks, Knives” As Scrap Volumes Overwhelm Refiners – “Silver’s explosive January rally, which briefly pushed futures prices above $120 per ounce, has since fizzled, with futures trading around $82 as of Thursday morning. Even so, the frenzy has sparked a sharp increase in scrap silver volumes flowing to refiners, ” – Tyler Durden

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

15 DIY Instant Soup Mixes – “The great thing about instant soups is that most of them are as easy to make as a cup of tea. They may not pack a lot of calories, but on a cold day or when you actually have a cold they can be a welcome addition to your diet. One of the primary benefits of adding instant soups to your food storage is that they tend to have a long shelf-life and are inexpensive to put together. Variety is sometimes a challenge with long-term food storage and instant soups can create a lot of flavor options for a potentially monotonous menu.” – Steve Nubie

What No One Told You About Your Guns – “Some Guns Age Better Than Others (and That Matters More Than You Think)” – Kate L. Gilmour

How A Produce-Rich Plate Brings Deeper Off-Grid Rest – “Eat From The Garden, Sleep Like A Stone There’s a reason so many off-grid folks swear by what you might call “garden sleep.” After a long day hauling compost, tending beds, and eating food you grew with your own hands, your head hits the pillow and you’re out like a stone in a creek. That deep, steady rest doesn’t just feel earned—it turns out it’s supported by real science.” – Bill Heid

Survival MD: The Ultimate Guide to Medical Preparedness Book Review – “From the first few pages, it was clear this book was written with real-world scenarios in mind. The layout is clean, the chapters are logically organized, and the table of contents alone tells you exactly what kind of situations the authors expect you to face. It is not theory-heavy. It is problem-focused.” – Darren Kelburn

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I’m a woman’s man, no time to talk
Music loud and children warm
I’ve been a pedophile since I was born

And now it’s all right, it’s okay
And you may look the other way
We can try to understand
The Devil’s effect on man

Whether you’re a believer or whether you’re a deceiver
I’m still alive, still alive
Feel the city breaking and everybody shaking
And I’m still alive, still alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, still alive, still alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, still alive
Oh, when you walk

STAYING ALIVE (Epstein version )

THE BIG PICTURE

Epstein’s Island And The Gateway To The Psychology Of Evil – “Conspiracy theorists are almost always right. We have been proved right time and time again and we will continue to be right about many things that the corporate media used to call “fringe.” For those out there who are like me; people who have been trying to warn the public about these threats for 20 years or more, I just want to say: We have won a resounding victory. We brought the dark secrets of the elites into the mainstream and there’s nothing that can stop this train now. However, the fight is far from over and don’t expect anyone to give you any awards or even recognition. It’s the nature of our work, and frankly, the best thing that can happen in the long run is that researchers and analysts like us eventually become obsolete. In the meantime, the infowar to save civilization continues. One issue I have spearheaded in my career (along with a handful of other liberty writers) is delving into the psychology and ideology of the globalists. I find their existence to be fascinating. Revolting to be sure, but also fascinating.” – Brandon Smith

The Walls They’re Building Aren’t for Our Safety – “We are part of the disposable class. Despite the pathetic lack of accountability, the Epstein files changed the calculus. What used to be dismissed as a niche conspiracy theory turned out to be a global system of trafficking involving people at the top. When a secret that large is proven true, the “mad” theories start to look plausible. What other huge lies are we being told? What else exists behind the curtain? We see a pattern now. A group of powerful people shape the world to fit their needs. They tell the public to “move on” while they build doomsday bunkers in remote locations, private security forces, and tech replacements for human labor. The amazing thing is they are building all this right in the open, and we’re like, “nah, they cant really be planning for half of us to die, are they?” Yes. The audacious goals of the elites are real. You better fucking believe it.” – Sarah Connor

Project In Humanity – “What if a large group of unwitting geoengineers have been implementing a global project that alters the climate and modifies the weather in a misguided and misinformed attempt to advance civilization?” – James Roguski

Jade Helm: Fact or Fiction? – “In 2015, long before Jade Helm became a buzzword online, many of us noticed military activity that did not follow the usual patterns they were accustomed to seeing. It wasn’t announced through national briefings or clearly explained to the people living in the affected areas. Instead, information surfaced slowly through local observations and eventually through leaked documents that raised more questions than they answered. This slow and unclear rollout was the real spark. Military exercises are nothing new, and most people understand the need for training. What unsettled many Americans was the lack of transparency, combined with the scale of the operation and the type of units involved. Jade Helm officially wrapped up in September 2015, but something important did not end with it. The exercise normalized the idea that large-scale domestic military movement could happen quietly, with limited public explanation, and still be defended after the fact as routine.” – Kate L. Gilmour  – SOME MAY NOT REMEMBER THIS, BUT IT WAS ALL THE BUZZ ON THE INTERNET IN PREPAREDNESS CIRCLES. IT WAS A TEST TO GET US USE TO THE MILITARY BEING USED ON THE COUNTRY’S OWN CITIZENS. SOUND FAMILIAR, SUCH AS ICE IN MINNESOTA AND ELSEWHERE!!!

THE DEEPER DIVE: The Epstein Files Betray the Government’s Many Reasons for the Coverup – “The more that is released, the more we know how much remains to be released and the more we see how the wrong stuff has been redacted in past releases while stuff that should have been redacted wasn’t” – David Haggith

I Know Victoria’s Secret: Israel, Les Wexner & CIA Operation Long Leash [Pizzagate Part 6] – “Well, we finally figured out what Victoria’s secret is, and it sure isn’t what we could have guessed…” – Agent131711  – AGENT131711 CONTINUES THE DEEP DIVE INTO EPSTEIN AND ASSOCIATES!!!

Today’s Epstein’s Records Destroy Official Narratives – “Today’s revelations are a paper trail of conspiracy theories turned conspiracy fact. We knew about the horrific paedophilia and human trafficking. But if that wasn’t enough, now there’s missing jail footage, industrial quantities of acid, and an FBI document casually referencing a decoy dead body. Not rumors, not screenshots, not internet lore. Actual documents. Actual records. The kind of thing we were told for years did not exist. Someone call you crazy for suggesting this photo of Epstein may not have been him? Now you can show them this:” – Quoth the Raven

World Health Organization Conducts Simulation For “Large-Scale Pandemic” With 31 Countries – “Might want to keep that butt-wipe stocked up.” – Anthony Colpo

¡Dios Mío! Bad Bunny Super Bowl Halftime Lyrics Included EXTREMELY Explicit Language – “Puerto Rican rapper’s Spanish songs mentioned breasts, vaginas, penises, eating a**, oral sex, drugs and more! Millions of children were subjected to the adult content.” – Kelen McBreen

Ohio Megachurch Performs Annual Super Bowl Themed Service – Pastor Punts Bible Like A Football, Depicts Bible Having Sex With Football – “Another year, another embarrassment. Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio, performed their annual over-the-top Super Bowl-themed sermon, where the church staff and congregants participate in a service that’s loosely framed as four quarter football game, but with preaching and inspirational messaging.” – The WinePress

 

 

 

NEWS

Epstein Files: Thomas Massie Is Poking Holes in the DOJ – “More and more are feeling like the DOJ is not fully complying with the release of Epstein Files. Yesterday, Congressman Thomas Massie and Congressman Ro Khanna went to the DOJ and spent two hours viewing what were supposed to be unredacted Epstein Files. What they ultimately found was that 70% to 80% of the files were redacted by the FBI before they even got to the DOJ. They also found that the DOJ has not necessarily been complying with their redaction tactics as per the law. Massie and Khanna suggest this may be to protect the rich and powerful involved.” – The Pulse  – GOOD FOR MR. MASSIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This Isn’t Freedom, It’s Madness – “Trump and Hegseth Call for a Bigger Iron Cross. Self-styled Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is on an “arsenal of freedom” tour, notes Lisa Savage, as he extolls the alleged virtues of building more and more deadly weapons. President Dwight D. Eisenhower had a ready answer to such arrant nonsense. In 1953, Ike famously declared that the pursuit of weapons would leave humanity crucified on a cross of iron. Ike knew the horrors of war; Hegseth knows nothing except his own will to power.” -Bill Astore

The President’s Murder Spree Hasn’t Ended – “The president continues to use the military to assassinate people in international waters, and much of Washington seems to have accepted this as normal. The military just murdered two more people at sea: The latest strike brings the death toll from the murder spree to at least 130 since the lawless killing started last September” – Daniel Larison

Civil War 2: “Neighbors” vs. N****rs – “”Neighbor” is the left’s latest label to signal friend-enemy distinction. “Neighbor” is the new “comrade”. Bolshevik agitators are using the term neighbor to protect their illegal immigrant allies. In contrast, they smear their enemies with the worst possible slurs that they would cancel anyone else for uttering. Minnesota provides many examples of this subversion. A Somali who just got off the plane from Mogadishu to participate in Learing Center fraud is a good “neighbor”. An African-American ICE officer who arrests illegals is a house n*****r. Communists hate nothing more than a minority who does not obey their communism.” – Yuri Bezmenov

Zuckerberg Follows Billionaire Exodus To Florida As California Pushes New Wealth Tax – “Once again, the pattern is familiar: raise taxes in California, and watch the private jets head east. Mark Zuckerberg may soon be adding Miami to his ever-growing list of luxury addresses. According to people familiar with his plans, the Meta founder and his wife, Priscilla Chan, are exploring a home on Indian Creek Island—an ultra-exclusive, heavily guarded neighborhood often called “Billionaire Bunker”, according to Bloomberg. The tiny island is already packed with famous residents, including Jeff Bezos, Tom Brady, Jared Kushner, and Ivanka Trump.” – Tyler Durden

Middle East on the brink of war: Why US-Iran talks may be the last chance for peace – “As war clouds gather over Iran, will Hezbollah and the Houthis step in to defend Tehran?” – Elizabeth Blade

Trump signs executive order quadrupling beef imports from Argentina – “The main group representing American cattle ranchers has said the increase in imports is a “misguided effort” and will damage the “livelihoods of American cattlemen and women, while doing little to impact the price consumers are paying at the grocery store.”” – Olivia Rinaldi

Eye On Iran: Pentagon Held Live-Fire War Drills In Persian Gulf – Tyler Durden

A US-led regime-change operation in Iran would be tantamount to a declaration of war on China and here’s why – Leo Hohmann

Gun Owner Denied Firearm By ATF For Claiming “God Given Rights” – “A member of Gun Owners of America was recently denied a firearm by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) for writing “exercise my God given right” as their reason for manufacturing the firearm. Our member wasn’t doing anything illegal; they were not attempting to manufacture something that was banned in their state of residence. They weren’t building anything that is banned federally, and they were complying with all regulations set forth by ATF during the registration process. Even though no statute or regulation requires it, ATF’s Form 1, Box 4(i) demands that gun owners “specify why you intend to make [a] firearm.” As a law-abiding US citizen with no criminal record, you don’t need a reason to purchase or manufacture a firearm. That’s what the Second Amendment is for. Yet ATF denied our member’s application for this exact reason.” – Gun Owners of America

The US Weaponized Russophobic Paranoia & Energy Geopolitics To Capture Control Of Europe – “It’s unimaginable that the US would allow any competitor to reduce its enormous new market share in the European energy industry, which it plans to further expand to make Europe even more dependent on it, and that the US wouldn’t weaponize this if Europe ever defies it on anything of significance.” – Andrew Korybko

Europe’s Triumvirate of Lame Stooges Faces Moment of Truth – “Beneath the feigned ‘Ukrainian solidarity’ and ‘European strength’ put-ons, Europe’s leaders are drowning in unprecedented crises. The leaders of all three major nations—Germany, UK, and France—are seeing the total collapse of their factions and rulership in general, as their approval ratings hit rock bottom.” – Simplicius

Trump’s tariffs cost the average American household $1,000 last year – “New analysis shows Trump’s tariffs have pushed up US living costs, with consumers bearing most of the burden as the Supreme Court weighs the legality of the policy. The claim that foreign countries pay these tariffs is a myth. The data show the opposite: Americans are footing the bill,” – Amrita Carroll

More than 1 million homeowners are underwater on their mortgage — a 7-year high. Here’s what experts advise they do. – “Between the start and end of 2025, there was a 60% jump in the number of homeowners in a negative equity position” – Aarthi Swaminathan

Disappointing holiday season: December retail sales were flat, falling well short of estimate – Jeff Cox  – YOU THINK MAYBE THE REASON WAS BECAUSE MANY CONSUMERS HAD TO BORROW, EE BELOW!!!

Americans Borrowed A Lot to Pay for Christmas 2025 – “The Debt Black Hole got a little bigger as U.S. consumer debt unexpectedly surged in December. Americans apparently put a Christmas spending spree on Visa and Mastercard. Consumer debt climbed by $24 billion, a 5.7 percent increase, according to the latest data from the Federal Reserve.” – Mike Maharrey

K-Shaped Catastrophe: US Economy Continues To Collapse, January Job Losses Worst Since 2009, Seldom New Jobs Added, Consumers Fall Deeper Into Debt, As Trump Says ‘I’m Very Proud Of It’ – “Worse yet, there is a growing trend of “reverse recruiting,” with candidates paying recruiters to pair them with a job.” – The WinePress

So… is the Gold Boom Over?- “Foreign governments and central banks are sitting on $10+ trillion in foreign reserves— most of that parked in US dollars. Their “extra” gold purchases since 2022 (i.e. they amount of gold they bought each year above the historic average) only totals around $100 billion, i.e. roughly ONE PERCENT of their reserves. Would it be so crazy to assume that they might want to diversify TWO percent? Or maybe 5%? If so, there could be a LOT more money coming in to gold. And if a mere 1% of foreign reserves cause the gold price to skyrocket, how high will the gold price go if they park 5% or more? Again, this isn’t something that’s going to happen tomorrow. It’s a long-term trend. But the point is that the story hasn’t changed.” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

Dow 50,000 Was Just the Milestone — Here’s the Updated Target (and Why Silver Still Has Far More Upside) – Kerry Lutz

Gold and Silver – major new uptrend signaled (VIDEO) – “Using fresh charts of spot gold, spot silver and the US dollar, I walk through the parabolic uptrends, the recent “blow‑off” tops, and the key support zones where this correction is most likely to stabilize before the next big upleg. We also look at copper and the broader precious‑metals sector to see how they fit into the picture and why this pullback still appears to be a pause within a powerful long‑term bull market rather than the end of it.” – Clive Maund

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Escalation of Force: How to Choose the Appropriate Response to Potential Violence – ““I’ll just pull out my Glock/HK/Ruger and deal with those punks. Once they see their buddies drop, they’ll back off soon enough.” Things are never as cut-and-dried as people with 3-second solutions like to make them seem in the comments. You can’t escalate directly to lethal force in every situation.” – Daisy Luther

Tarp Shelters: The Best Lightweight Option for Backpacking, Hiking & Wilderness Survival – “Why Tarp Shelters make a good shelter for camping, hiking, and survival” – Off Grid Survival

The 100× Blackout Warning: Why Smart Homesteaders Are Rebuilding Their Power Plans Now – “When the Grid Gets Unreliable, Self-Reliance Stops Being a Hobby and Becomes a Lifeline Blackouts in the United States could be up to 100 times more common by 2030—and that single prediction should radically reshape how a serious homesteader thinks about power, backup, and daily life. If federal agencies are sounding alarm bells about grid reliability, you can safely assume the average household is nowhere near ready. The good news? You still have time to build a homestead power plan that actually works when the lights start flickering for real.” – Bill Heid

Very Small-Scale Manual Power Generation for Charging Essential Devices – “When people talk energy preparedness, they usually jump straight to solar arrays, fuel generators, and big battery banks. Those systems absolutely have a place. There’s a smaller tier of power that matters precisely because it’s boring: manual, human-powered charging for essential devices. It won’t run your home. It’s not meant to. Its purpose is to keep the tools that prevent isolation and confusion alive: radios, lights, phones used for maps/notes, and rechargeable battery packs.”‘ – denob

The Complete Guide to Finding the Best Generator for Home Use – “Power outages are becoming increasingly common across the United States, with consumers experiencing an average of 5½ hours of electricity interruptions annually. Whether caused by severe weather, grid failures, or natural disasters, losing power can mean spoiled food, uncomfortable temperatures, and disrupted daily life. A reliable home generator ensures your household stays powered, comfortable, and safe when the grid goes down.” – Ask A Prepper Staff

Deuteronomy 18:10-12    There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.  Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.  For all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord: and because of these abominations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee.

THE BIG PICTURE

Give Grace To One Another – “Is a Roman Catholic more “Christian” than a Protestant? Are Evangelicals more “Christian” than Presbyterians? Perhaps the better question is “who decides?” Who on earth today is qualified to decide whether a person is a genuine follower of Christ or not? I am not speaking of people whose words, actions, or stated beliefs clearly contradict what is clearly stated in Scripture. A person who rejects or ignores Christ’s teachings by definition cannot claim to be any sort of “Christian.” There is no real debate to be had on that point. I really don’t care about abstract theologies. Debates over ideas such as “dispensationalism” do not interest me in the slightest. My priorities are how to live out God’s Law and God’s Will in real life.” – Peter Nayland Kust  – GOOD ONE FROM PETER TODAY!!!

Pastors Not Speaking On End Times – “If your pastor is not speaking on esquetology, which is the study of end times, then your pastor is avoiding and ignoring nearly one third of the Bible, including that Jesus spoke on hell and on prophecy more than any other topic. Now, just because end times is difficult to understand, and I get it, it can be a bit overwhelming. I get it. But that does not mean that just because it’s difficult to understand that we avoid it.’ – Armor Of Truth Ministry

The Epstein Files Don’t Expose a Sex Trafficker. They Expose a Global Network of Sorcerers Who Rape and Kill Children for Supernatural Power. – “The newest ‘Pedo Files’ batch reveals connections to a Satanic priesthood that traces all the way back to ancient Babylon and has never stopped killing kids.” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

The Epstein Files : A Peek Behind the Dark Curtain, Pt. 1 – “Snippets of horrifying reality. The first thing one notices about these files, which are primarily email exchanges between Epstein and usually redacted names, is their overt Jewish nature. Epstein wears his Jewishness on his sleeve. We learn that he has a Talmud in his office. The “conspiracy theorists” report that he had lovingly named one of his bank accounts “Baal,” but the inimitable Fact Checkers now assure us that this was due to a simple scanning error. Epstein mentioned “Goyim” quite a bit in his correspondence. This is a kindler, gentler term for “cattle,” and it is used to identity all non-Jews. In one email, Epstein matter-of-factly states: “Goyim were born only to serve us, without that, they have no place in the world, only to serve the people of Israel.” Well, nothing says “chosen” people clearer than that” – Donald Jeffries

Post-Epstein Document Dump: The Moment for Left-Right Populist Unity? – “That a multinational cabal of sadistic, rapacious pedophiles has infested every major institution of the West, insulated from the law, has never been more indisputable than at present. For years, for reasons that make no logical sense, this simple reflection of reality was coded as “right-wing conspiracy theory” and dismissed out of hand by the self-professed practitioners of respectable journalism. Still, as evidenced by their recent concessions, denying reality is no longer viable. Leftist influencer after leftist influencer, many of whom I follow for reconnaissance purposes, have essentially conceded the premise of Pizzagate, The obvious question then becomes: is anyone going to do anything about it?” – Ben Bartee

Epstein Island Nation: Where Conspiracy Theories Go to Die – “The closing act of anarcho-Jewry clown world? The latest Epstein files release has confirmed what many suspected and some (anti-semites) already knew: that America is ruled by a cabal of Jews. Epstein’s island was not Little St James, but the entire United States. The fact that many of these Jews, including Epstein himself, are sex perverts abusing White women and girls is of course horrifying but largely auxiliary. Jeffrey Epstein was tasked — like his predecessor Robert Maxwell — with running Jewish mafia operations on behalf of Israel, particularly in respect to science, technology and financial investment. His operations likely involved child abuse and trafficking because of his own Judaic proclivities rather than via direct remit, as was the case with figures like Maxwell and Harvey Weinstein. With Jewish rule, child abuse comes pre-bundled along with open borders and cultural degeneration.” – James Eden

The Tokenization of Everything – “The Infrastructure for Biodigital Convergence and the Erosion of Human Sovereignty. Proponents sell tokenization as revolutionary progress. Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, has repeatedly called it “the beginning of the tokenization of all assets,” claiming it will democratize access and make markets more efficient. Institutions celebrate faster settlement, lower costs, and fractional ownership that lets ordinary people “invest” in assets previously out of reach. These promises mask a darker reality: the benefits flow primarily to the issuers and custodians—giants like BlackRock—who retain ultimate control over the underlying assets while the public holds revocable tokens.” – Courtenay Turner

Obama, Gates, and Epstein: The Week Emergency Rule Became Global Policy – “The Architecture of Global Emergency Rule Was Activated in One Week. Newly released DOJ documents reveal that in the final week of September 2014 — the week Ebola was formally reclassified as a threat to international peace and security — Bill Gates disclosed his upcoming meeting with President Obama to Jeffrey Epstein, and Epstein was simultaneously consulted on a private Obama fundraiser by a former head of state. This was not just a coincidence of power. It was the week the biosecurity state was born.” – Sayer Ji

WASHINGTON POST RAID IS A FRIGHTENING REMINDER: TURN OFF YOUR PHONE’S BIOMETRICS NOW – “The search warrant to raid a Washington Post reporter’s home shows how authorities can open your phone without your consent.” – Nikita Mazurov

Australia Proudly Goes Full F**kwit (Part 2) – “When in Doubt, Blame Migrants. For Everything. Even Your Own Stupidity. Humans are a predictable lot. There’s a regrettable scenario we’ve seen play out in Europe and the US, and now it’s happening in Australia. It arises when the population has ‘progressive’ causes rammed down its throat, and the more ‘conservative’ of the populace begins to resent it. Their resentment grows and grows, until some false messiah steps up and masquerades as a champion of the commonfolk. This spruiker declares to the regular folk it’s time to “drain the swamp” and that he/she will take on the ‘elites’. Never mind this shyster is invariably a member of the same parasite class he/she pretends to be fighting against. He/she tells the plebs all the things they want to hear.” – Anthony Colpo  – PART 1 WAS LINKED ON THURSDAY!!

 

 

NEWS

America: The Now Tyrannical Sadistic Police Stat – “If it was not so serious, it would be almost laughable; that is the inversion of ‘thought’ among the competing factions called red or blue, republican or democrat, left or right. The evil red side supposedly is more inclined toward capitalism, gun ‘rights,’ war, and anti-civil rights, but of course that is all a farce. The blue side is supposedly for civil rights, welfare, gun confiscation, and anti-war, but that is also all a farce. Both sides accept most anything, so long as their political ‘god’ is in power. This time around, the evil red team has built a massive police state, mass surveillance, extreme censorship, and war, while the evil blue team has gone along with some things, shunned others, created protest and riots, but reversed on core positions. The gun question in particular has now inverted, as Trump has said no guns, no guns on the street, while the left is now for guns due to the ICE martial law and brutality. You can’t make this up” – Gary D. Barnett

He Can’t be This Stupid . . . Can He? – “The president’s strange outbursts grow more frequent. This happens when the mind begins to slip into the twilight of second childhood, as anyone who has dealt with the phenomenon can attest. It is either that or the man is incredibly – as in unbelievably – stupid. Or it is something much worse. It has to be one of the three. The latest outburst took the form of a video depiction of the Obamas as apes – and himself as a sauntering lion king, fawned over by the other denizens of the jungle. It’s no easy thing to decide which of the two depictions is the worse – in terms of the sheer infantile idiocy of it. His supporters – are there still any? – say it is “fake outrage.” No. It is exasperated disappointment. This gratuitous, pointless video Trump posted – and quickly deleted as the outrage swelled – only served to generate sympathy for the Obamas. It served to give the Left a new talking point. How does this advance the MAGA cause?” – Eric Peters

They will also cover US-Iran negotiations, new developments in Venezuela, and more.” – The Grayzone

What Is Genocide? – ‘Man’s Inhumanity to Man.The Israeli government justifies mass theft and mass death as a defensive war against barbaric terrorists, just as the Nazis saw themselves as being at war with inferior Jews and other racial undesirables like the gypsies. The Nazis claimed the Jews were an existential threat to the “master race,” thus all Jews had to be killed, even women, children, and babies. The Israeli government claims Hamas is an existential threat to Jews and that all Palestinians are, more or less, members or supporters of Hamas and therefore must be eliminated (murdered or expelled). Women, children, babies: they’re all Hamas. Today, there is great resistance (certainly among U.S. politicians) to the idea that Israel is conducting a genocide in Gaza. Most U.S. politicians prefer to think of it as a morally justifiable war against Hamas, and even if they don’t completely buy that, they give Israel everything it wants, weapons and money, to facilitate that genocide. Like Pontius Pilate, they wash their hands of blood shed in Gaza, blaming Hamas (or, perhaps for a few, quietly blaming Israel without daring to say it).” – Bill Astore  – GREAT POINT FROM BILL, BUT IT MAKES YOU A SO-CALLED ANTISEMITE FOR POINTING OUT THAT THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE!!!

Young America’s Affordability Crisis Has Political ConsequencesAP One and a half million more young adults live with their parents today than a decade ago. They’re losers … economically. Since the pandemic, fair market rents have increased as much as 40% in Chicago, the cost of owning a car is up more than 40%, and car insurance and health care prices have spiked. Student loan debt has quadrupled since 2000, and entry-level wages haven’t kept pace with inflation. For young people without financial or family support, it’s an affordability crisis that feels insurmountable. Cost of living was Gen Z’s top political issue in 2024; they feel the “American Dream” slipping farther away.” – Micky Horstman

The independent bloc is a revolutionary enterprise, with the prospect further countries will follow its members’ lead.

Oman Talks Just a Fig Leaf for Total Neutering of Iran – “A new round of Iran talks has kicked off in Oman, with Trump claiming they are “going well”. We’ve already established how it’s been clearly implied by Trump’s renewed threats against Iran’s “nuclear” capabilities that Operation Midnight Hammer was a total failure, or a con job. The US administration does not even attempt to keep its stories straight anymore, simply crafting narrative impromptu as necessary. But what has become obvious is that the latest stunt is an attempt by the roi fainéant orange not to eliminate the threat of Iran’s nuclear capabilities, but rather to entirely neuter its conventional strike potential at the secret behest of Israel.” – Simplicius

YouTube “Asian Guy” AI Bot Manipulates, Spooks Investors with Nonsense Claims – “There is a new viral trend on YouTube and social media of an “Asian Guy” generated by artificial intelligence (AI) tools, spreading mostly false or misleading information across the precious metals industry. At this point, you might stop and ask yourself, “If it is obviously AI, why are so many people falling for it?” It likely has to do with people’s attention span and their willingness or ability to research everything they see or hear. And not everything the “Asian Guy” AI bot says is a falsehood… but there is so much fabrication and half-truths peppered throughout. Some of these AI junk videos have gone viral, leading many to believe that the high viewership must mean they are reliable or authentic. It’s unknown whether Asian Guy videos are an intentional misinformation operation or just riddled with AI hallucinations. ” – Joshua D. Glawson

And potentially favorable for our silver. Let’s start with a Chinese whale putting on a Hunt Brothers-level silver futures short in Shanghai: Who knows? AI has turned an already chaotic media landscape into an asylum run by its inmates. What we do know is that the long-term demand for silver is outstripping its supply, which is an accumulation signal. So DO NOT let the chaos drive you crazy.

IMAGES FOR THE DAY

 

 

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK

I’ve been lost inside
Empty space in my heart
And some things never change, oh

How it hurts me and
How it’s tearin’ me apart
And it just goes on and on

Can you read my mind
Take a good look at my face
Could you take the time
Just to stand here in my place

What if I’d been the one
To say goodbye, goodbye
Could you smile when inside
You just wanna cry, look inside
Can you read my mind, oh, whoa

When I hear your name
Feel so cold deep inside
Still it’s hard to explain, oh

What your love meant to me
They say time will heal the pain
But it just goes on forever

Can you read my mind?
Have you closed the door on love
Can you be so blind?
Did you think I’d just give up?

What if I’d been the one
To say goodbye, goodbye
Could you smile when inside
You just wanna cry, wanna cry

What if I’d been the one
To say goodbye, goodbye
Could you smile when
It hurts so deep inside
And it never fades away
Fade away

Time can’t erase the reasons why
Count my mistakes and the heartaches
Since you said goodbye

What if I’d been the one
To say goodbye, goodbye
Could you smile when inside
You just wanna cry, wanna cry

What if I’d been the one
To say goodbye, goodbye
Could you smile when
It hurts so deep inside
And it never fades away

Never fades away
No, it don’t fade away

 ( If I’d Been The One  by Don Barnes,  Jeff Carlisi,  Donnie Van Zant,  and Larry  Steele )

THE BIG PICTURE

These Abuses Will Continue Until People Force Them To Stop – “There are a whole lot more of us than there are of the tyrants who are inflicting these abuses upon our world, and they know it, and they fear us.Western governments are going to get more and more authoritarian. Police forces are going to get more and more militarized and murderous. Freedom of speech is going to be crushed with more and more aggression. Military budgets are going to get more and more bloated. The imperial war machine is going to get more and more belligerent, genocidal and expansionist. The gap between the rich and the poor is going to keep growing and growing. People are going to get more and more miserable and mentally unhealthy. The systems we use to gather information about our world are going to get more and more tightly controlled by the powerful. ” – Caitlin Johnstone  – GOOD READ FROM CAITLIN. THE MINNEAPOLIS SHOOTING, RIGHT OR WRONG, IS REALLY JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

An Abyss of Lawlessness – “Donald Trump, to put this point simply, is running the same empire that Presidents Johnson, Nixon, Carter, Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, Bush II, Obama, and Biden ran. Trump is merely running it differently — more openly coercive, more nakedly dependent on power alone — because we are in a different time, and imperial America is now late-imperial America. Our age of lawlessness is also our age of desperation, this is to say. Shredding international law and domestic legal regimes while standing in front of a prime-time television camera is a response to an alternative world order swiftly taking shape in the non–West and, so, pressing itself upon the West. The attack on Venezuela was also an attack on this order-in-formation. But the state into which they have led the West is not sustainable. Disorder and lawlessness inevitably degenerate into more and graver disorder, lawlessness, and violence. This is not a winning strategy. History teaches that the turmoil of our time — to describe our circumstance too mildly — can be, far from always, the mulch from which a new order will arise.” – Patrick Lawrence

The Risks Of Cascading Sugar Rush Policy – “President Trump has demonstrated a remarkable genius for dominating the entire eventsphere. After his success in Venezuela, he’s now embarked on a deluge of new announcements – which his detractors have dismissed as the actions of a Toddler on a Sugar High. I can’t remember anything like it in the first week of a new year. Whether its kidnapping foreign leaders, his ICE praetorians murdering citizens and justifying it as a war against leftist domestic terrorism, privateering vs Russian flagged tankers, banning institutional housing investment, threatening to split Nato by seizing Greenland, withdrawing from all international organisations, capping defence industry salaries and bonuses, and then announcing a 50% increase in the US “War” budget from $900 bln to $1.5 trillion per annum, it’s no wonder everyone is wondering what Trump will do tomorrow?” – Bill Blain

How Nations Escape Poverty – “Over the last 35 years, Vietnam has undergone one of the most miraculous economic transformations in history. So how was it achieved?” – Jon Miltimore

MAHA Promised Transparency. FDA Delivered Censorship – “The FDA has formally rejected ANH-USA’s landmark petition seeking to open up Americans’ access to truthful, science-based information about the health benefits of nutrients. In response, ANH-USA will file suit against the FDA in federal court to challenge what we believe is unconstitutional censorship and a clear violation of federal law.” – ANH-USA

Nothing to See Here: MAHA “Winning” Enters the UNIVERSAL FLU SHOT Phase – “No reversals, no accountability, just the same system quietly declaring victory again. Is this what “winning” looks like, MAHA?” – Sense Receptor via Lioness of Judah

Stop hating us! The attempt to destroy white nations. A defense of Western culture – “Attacks on indigenous white European culture seemed to coincide with a coordinated effort to flood Western nations with non-native, non-white people groups—Islamic and Somali in particular. Critics often conflate globalization, colonial history, or the concept of “whiteness” as evil incarnate. This misportrays Europeans as a demonic brood not worthy of existing. In a word, it’s gaslighting. Some note that this framing is ideological, not academic.” – Kenn Gividen

How Dare You Fight Back Against Communists! – “I’ve looked at all the available video evidence from multiple angles and in my opinion she did in fact try to hit the officer with her car. Frankly, she got exactly what she deserved and I would argue that more of these NGO paid activists need to face similar consequences if we are ever going to stop the engineered communist monkey wrenching in our midst. If we can’t shut the NGOs down, then the people they pay and train need to be pummeled until they realize the money simply isn’t worth it. Leftists function on the assumption that they can skirt the law while using it as a shield against reprisal. They do it over and over and usually they get away with it. They whittle us down by stabbing at us from behind a curtain of gray legality. I’m tired of it, and I think many millions of other Americans are also tired of it. We’re done playing nice. In my studies on various communist insurgencies over the past century there is a clear pattern, a specific strategy that is almost always used. For lack of a better description, today we would call it the strategy of the “Cry Bully.”” – Brandon Smith – I TOO HAVE WATCHED ALL THE VIDEOS AVAILABLE, EVEN THE NEWEST WHERE IT LOOKS PLAUSIBLE THAT SHE MAY HAVE HIT THE ICE AGENT, HOWEVER I’M NOT SURE SHE GOT WHAT SHE DESERVED. THE MAIN POINT HERE, IS THAT ALL OF THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED, IF SHE HADN’T BEEN THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!

The true story of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis – The death of Renee Nicole Good would never have occurred if Democrat Minnesota had accepted the will of the American people demonstrated in the 2024 election and cooperated with the nation’s desire to remove the illegal aliens from our presence. Instead, the Democrat party refused to accept the American people’s will, preferring instead the will of noncitizens and aligned themselves with those who entered the country illegally. In my view, the evidence is unequivocally clear that Renée Nicole Good died because of the irresponsibility of Tim Walz, Jacob Frey and Ilhan Omar.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Renee Good’s Partner Made a Revealing Admission About the Shooting – “These weren’t innocent people who randomly encountered ICE agents in the middle of an operation. They were there to obstruct and antagonize. Rebecca not only taunted agents, but told Renee to “drive baby, drive.” And she did, with the agent in her path, forcing him to defend himself after being struck.” – Matt Margolis

No, ICE Is Nothing Like the Gestapo, Except When It Is – “Some readers objected to my use of the word Gestapo to describe ICE. Let’s investigate.’ – Mish

Courting death to own the Nazis – “Objectively speaking, these ICE-watching women engage federal law enforcement officers in repeated rounds of chicken. Their aim is to edge beyond being a mere nuisance and cause meaningful disruptions, while hoping always to stop short of becoming a serious, actionable threat. This is a very hard balance to maintain because of course threats are perceived subjectively. Where exactly the line falls will vary from officer to officer and from situation to situation, according to a multitude of imponderables. Anyone who plays like this is trying to get shot, whether she realises it or not. What makes this balance even harder to maintain, is the fact that none of the politically hysterical imbeciles involved shows any evidence of understanding what it is she’s doing.” – eugyppius

No Ashli Babbitt Treatment for Renee Good -“If Democrats, NeverTrump, and the media did not have double standards, they would have none at all.” – Julie Kelly  – I HAD THE EXACT THOUGHTS YESTERDAY, SEE MY IMAGE FOR THE DAY YESTERDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ICE WATCH: Manufactured Martyrdom in Minneapolis” – “The domestic terror attack against an ICE agent in Minneapolis earlier this week was not an accident in the ordinary sense of the word. It was not a random tragedy, nor an unforeseeable misunderstanding between a federal officer and a civilian. It was the predictable culmination of a far left political subculture that trains activists to escalate, to provoke, and to treat physical confrontation with law enforcement as morally justified and politically useful.” – Amuse on X

Masked Anti-ICE Agitator Admits She ‘Getting Paid’ to Attend Minneapolis Protest – David Lindfield

This one delusional neocon gives a perfect glimpse into the Ukraine War Fantasy Land they all live in – “Someone really should explain to Mike Pompeo how peace deals actually work” – Rachel Marsden

A Lawless Presidency – “The United States invasion of Venezuela and kidnapping of Nicolas Maduro, the domestically recognized Venezuelan president, violated the U.S. Constitution and international law. ​The Constitution makes clear that only Congress can authorize a foreign invasion. ” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

Seizing the Orinoco – “Last weekend’s capture and extraction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro was both fun and exciting. Disregarding national sovereignty and international law feels good when the outcome is favorable. Doing something reckless, like train surfing or drunk driving, and getting away with it teaches a dangerous lesson. Namely, that you’re invincible and can take things up another notch – or two. Does might make right? The time to answer this question has come and gone. Wrong or right. What’s done is done. Once a cucumber has become a pickle it can never be a cucumber again. There’s no going back. Perhaps Maduro, a corrupt and illegitimate dictator with a long list of abuses, had it coming. Handcuffs appear fitting. Certainly, opinions abound. Ours is of little concern. What we’re interested in better understanding is, what’s the meaning of it all?” – MN Gordon

When Order Still Exists — But Help Is Slow: The Security Gap Most Canadians Ignore – “Most households imagine security as a response to violence. In reality, vulnerability appears much earlier — when visibility drops, routines change, and uncertainty increases. People testing doors or lingering near properties aren’t looking for confrontation. They’re looking for ambiguity. Homes that appear unattended, unobserved, or inconveniently dark attract attention long before any crime escalates. Households that remained comfortable during recent disruptions didn’t rely on complex systems or constant monitoring. They focused on visibility, delay, and routine. Exterior lighting was one of the most effective deterrents.” – denob

SPECIAL VENEZUELAN NEWS ADDITION ( DAY 2 )

LOTS OF GOOD AND VARYING OPINIONS HERE FOR YOU TO READ AND DECIDE FOR YOURSELF.

TMM (Trump’s Macho Madness) – “Needless to say, the Donald is apparently not to be outdone by Tricky Dick in the stupidity department. The stated purpose of his invasion of Venezuela during the wee hours on Saturday and the kidnapping of its pajama-clad president was the latter’s alleged violation of America anti-cocaine laws. As to when, in the first place, Washington was seconded by god or the UN the right to impose and enforce its dubious domestic prohibition laws on the sovereign territory of other nations, our teetotaling president did not say.” – David Stockman

Badass – “It had become obvious, as Mr. Trump and Secretary Rubio explained over the weekend, that Venezuela under Sr. Maduro had become a platform for nefarious adventurism by America’s adversaries, especially the CCP, which was very active all around South America prepping various countries to join its “Belt and Road” initiative, which is to say its proposed global colonial resource network (a.k.a. empire). The day before he was snatched, Sr. Maduro had a visit with CCP emissaries. China had all kinds of deals going in Venezuela, especially for oil. The oil is obviously a big part of the picture.’ – James Howard Kunstler  – NOT SURE I TOTALLY AGREE WITH MR. KUNSTLER’S ASSESSMENT ON THIS ONE, BUT WE SHALL SEE!!!

America the Rogue State – “The evisceration of the rule of law at home and abroad solidifies America as a rogue state” – Chris Hedges

“The Donroe Doctrine”: Are Cuba, Colombia And Mexico The Next Targets, Or Will Someone Else Be First Instead?- Michael Snyder

So… About That Trump–Venezuela Thing (VIDEO) – M.D. Creekmore

Dominos Falling: Trump Tells Press On AF1 That The US Is “In Charge” Of Venezuela, Threatens Imminent Military Action Against Colombia, And Says “Cuba Is Ready To Fall;” Also: “We Need Greenland.” – “This really is one hell of a weekend.” – Celia Farber

Major Questions Finally Answered About Trump’s Venezuelan Adventure – “U.S Secretary of State Marco Rubio admits that abducting Maduro did not solve anything: “All of the problems we had with Maduro when Maduro was there. We still have those problems in terms of them needing to be addressed. We are going to give people an opportunity to address those challenges and those problems. Until they address it, they will continue to face this oil quarantine. Drunk with power, it seems Trump has become a rabid mad dog attacking the entire world at the behest of his Israeli masters. But to accelerationists like myself, it’s not an altogether terrible development as it hastens the awakening of the world to the US’s naked imperialism, which can only embolden the Global South and other resistance movements. As if those threats weren’t enough, today Trump’s admin again reiterated their intent to take Greenland by force, with wife of Trump advisor Stephen Miller, Katie Miller posting this earlier:” – Simplicius

First Venezuela, Next Iran? – “Reports of unusual American military activity in skies over Europe…”- Tyler Durden

The Real Reason the Pentagon Approved Venezuela: Critical Minerals and Adversary Expulsion. – “Understanding the Decision Architecture Before examining the strategic calculus behind the January 3, 2026 military operation in Venezuela, it is essential to understand who actually makes decisions of this magnitude. In the American national security apparatus, the Pentagon does not await presidential direction on major military operations. The Pentagon assesses threats, evaluates strategic priorities, and determines when military action crosses from option to necessity. The president then executes what the military establishment has already decided is required. This is not constitutional theory. This is operational reality. Trump’s public statements about oil and his claim that Venezuela’s resources will benefit the United States represent the political narrative constructed to sell the operation domestically. The Pentagon’s determination that adversary presence and critical mineral vulnerabilities required kinetic action represents the actual decision calculus.” – Tracy (chi)  – INTERESTING READ.

SPECIAL VENEZUELAN NEWS ADDITION

LOTS OF GOOD AND VARYING OPINIONS HERE FOR YOU TO READ AND DECIDE FOR YOURSELF.

When “the system” becomes “the enemy” –  “The lessons of international order for domestic systems. The US mission to venezuela, snatching maduro and his wife from their very home, shattering what was alleged to be a next gen Chinese air defense without a single loss of aircraft, and decapitating a (to many minds) illegitimate and certainly (to any reasonable mind) an oppressive government is a controversial act with widespread geopolitical ramifications that go beyond just Monroe Doctrine, energy, and intelligence community/NGO meddling (though it contains all these things). I shall perhaps dig into that in a later stack, but for the purposes of this one I’d like to speak of the tribal and systemic response to the operation in which all the predictable people are saying the predictable things” – El Gato Malo

Gangster Capitalism – “The Donroe Doctrine of Regional Dominance, Obedience, and Theft. The so-called Donroe Doctrine of hemispheric dominance represents the return of unapologetic gangster capitalism. The basic policy of the Trump administration recalls Michael Corleone, the mafia don in “The Godfather” saga. When his consigliere Tom Hagen asks Michael whether he has to wipe everyone out, Michael coldly replies “Just my enemies.” Anyone who defies the Corleone Family must be eliminated.” – Bill Astore  – ALSO READ CHRIS HEDGES ARTICLE FROM YESTERDAY, IT WAS SIMILAR IN NATURE!!!

Trump the neocon pulls trigger on regime change in Venezuela, and now all of that nation’s problems are our problems – “He ran on a platform of ending the nation-building exploits of the globalists, but now Donald J. Trump has outed himself as the quintessential globalist neocon. Will Iran be next?” – Leo Hohmann

The Merchant of Venezuela. – “The New Year begins on the B of Bang. As Trump shuffles to the preachers podium to explain his Venezuelan shenanigans he looks neither particularly wise nor servile. In fact, I’m half expecting him to announce a two-for-one property deal. Invest in a five-star beach front sand hotel in Gaza and receive a nice two-bedroom condo in Caracas absolutely free of any pound of flesh requirements in the future. I notice his voice and energy are ever weakening in public now. The words carry no punch, enthusiasm or fire anymore. He looks old, scripted, tired and dare I say it—bored. Of course, the Trumpster goes through the motions of explaining why the President of Venezuela and his wife are on a ship bound for the Southern District of New York to face US justice. Now, lest anyone forget the Southern District of New York is where justice goes to die in the United States. It is also where justice goes to suicide itself. It was Jeffrey Espteined outta this place a long, long time ago. So, the future for Mr and Mrs Maduro will be an end of days getting free legal advice from El Chapo in some god-forsaken US federal penitentiary.” – Gerry O’Neill

Trump To Maduro: “You’re Fired!” – “Donald Trump Is Expanding American Power By Wielding American Power. ” – Peter Nayland Kust  – ONE MUST ASK WHY ARE WE EXPANDING AMERICAN POWER, FOR WHAT PURPOSE!!!!

14 Points on Trump Kidnap of Venezuelan President Maduro on the Sixth Anniversary of the Trump Assassination of Haj Qassem Soleimani – “I have tried to collate some of the main talking points on the recent criminal events in Venezuela that have shocked the world in their lawlessness” – Vanessa Beeley – SOME GOOD POINTS FROM VANESSA!!

Maduro & Wife Seen Emerging At DEA Offices, Seemingly Calm, As Maduro Repeatedly Says “Happy New Year” in English; Social Media Floods With Clips Of Venezuelans Waking Up To The News, Weeping With Joy – “Maduro has been seen in at least three different sets of clothes, different colors, since his capture. I’m not sure what it means, if anything. Also, what does this thumbs up signify? That he is cooperating fully with the Trump administration?” – Celia Farber

Regime Tweaking, Not Regime Change, Is What The US Just Achieved In Venezuela – “This refers to keeping the targeted state’s power structure in place but after some (at times significant) changes that advance the meddling state’s interests.” – Andrew Korybko

Visualizing All Of The World’s Oil Reserves By Country – “Global oil reserves are highly concentrated. Venezuela ranks first with an estimated 303 billion barrels of oil reserves.” – Tyler Durden – THAT KIND OF SUMS IT UP, DOESN’T IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Venezuelan Fentanyl: Speedboats Can’t Cross Open Ocean and Other Lies They’re Hoping You Won’t Notice – “Or: ‘How Every Country Without a Western Bank Eventually Gets Liberated” -‘🐺The Wise Wolf

Trump Takes Over Caracas – “This morning’s questions from my Sputnik friends, and my answers. 1) What are the concrete objectives behind these US strikes? Is this primarily a regime-change operation, an attempt to assert control over Venezuela’s natural resources, or a combination of both? My Thoughts: It has to be a combination of both, but that seems almost too simplistic. Trump and the people around him seek control over energy and some concept of support for the dollar in the next decade, and they want a major operational position in South America.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

Trump’s Golden Hour: Historically Flawless Military Masterclass or Just Another Theatrical Production? – “For the Sake of US Supremacy: It Doesn’t Much Matter” – Simplicius  – GOOD ANALYSIS AS USUAL FROM SIMPLICIUS!!!!

Venezuela attack raises WW3 risk – “Why the Venezuelan attack might force a multi-front war. This strike extends a violent reorganization of the global order. By seizing control of Venezuelan energy, the US administration intends to grant Western oil companies direct access to reserves, effectively insulating the West from volatile Eastern markets. It is a bold, perhaps desperate, move to secure resource sovereignty in an era defined by a worldwide poly-crisis. The fallout was immediate. For Russia and China, Venezuela is a strategic foothold in the Western Hemisphere.” – Sarah Connor

Entirely irrelevant Eurotards assure the world they are “closely monitoring the situation” after the U.S. strikes Venezuela and captures President Nicolás Maduro – ” Finally, around noon, the mentally vacant EU foreign affairs girlboss Kaja Kallas logged onto X to assure the world that “the EU is closely monitoring the situation in Venezuela,” as if anybody gives the slightest shit what these people are doing.” – eugyppius

SPECIAL VIDEO FOR TODAY ( THANKS TO BILL ASTORE )

LYRIC FOR THE DAY

I was born on this bank
of the vibrant Arauca River,
I am brother to the foam,
to the herons, to the roses,
I am sister to the foam,
to the herons, to the roses
and to the sun, and to the sun.

The lively Diana
of the breeze in the palm grove lulled me to sleep,
and that is why my soul is like
the exquisite soul of crystal, of crystal.

I love, I weep, I sing, I dream
of carnations of passion,
of carnations of passion.
I love, I weep, I sing, I dream
to adorn the golden mane
of my lover’s colt.

I was born on this bank
of the vibrant Arauca River,
I am sister to the foam,
the herons, the roses
, and the sun.

 (Alma llanera by Pedro Elias Gutierrez and Edman Ayres de Abreu )

THE BIG PICTURE

Trying to replace the American dream – In moderation, tolerance is a virtue but in excess it becomes the direst of vices. Zohran’s inuagural speech was quite the revelation.” – El Gato Malo

Remigration NOW. A Cat 5 Hurricane Builds Across the West. – “If someone gave a certain order – there’s a few influential people at ground level – if we gave a certain order, all hell would erupt in the U.K. The troops are aligned, the armies are behind certain people, if certain people said, “enough’s enough”, and they pressed a certain button, you’d have an army of millions who would wipe this place out. “What would cause that button to be pressed?” “Any more children being murdered.” – Elizabeth Nickson

For Whom Is It Humane? – “Government is a criminal enterprise. All of it. “We passed a law” is no defense. The problem with Western civilization is that this idea that the government passing a law is an excuse to violate human rights has existed for far too long. This is the struggle the founders had, how to terminate that thought process. The concept of a republic operating with the will of the people lasted about as long as it took for the ink to dry. Washington himself violated that concept during the Whiskey Rebellion.” – T.L. Davis

Nobel Prize Winner Warns: AI IS COMING FOR YOUR JOB AND CONGRESS IS DOING NOTHING! – “It’s time to wake up America. Artificial Intelligence and Robots are FAR more dangerous than Nuclear Weapons.” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

The SYMBOLISM Is Everywhere!! (VIDEO) – “The secret societies and systems that rule our world are nothing new. They’ve been here since the beginning of time. But thankfully people are waking up,” – Armor Of Truth Ministry  – SHORT VIDEO ON THE NUMBER 33 AND MORE!!!!!

Cloudseeding Above Northern Indiana Skies Are Getting Out Of Control, Nonstop Near Daily Spraying With Impunity – “How much do you want to bet self-assembling nanotech is being deployed with this chemical brew? Yet nobody notices, nobody cares.” – The WinePress

Indoctrination brought to you by Big Sports – “If 100 million people care about sports, the psy-op exerts are going to go where the people are.” – Bill Rice Jr.

Study Finds Bovine Colostrum 3× More Effective Than Flu Vaccination in Preventing Flu Illness – “Participants experienced ~60% fewer illness days and ~75% fewer flu-like episodes with bovine colostrum compared to flu vaccination.” – Nicolas Hulscher, MPH

NEWS

Maduro “Effed Around & Found Out”; Trump Says ‘We Will Run Venezuela’ Until Safe Transition After Operation ‘Absolute Resolve’ – “Additionally, President Trump said Saturday he would allow American oil companies to head into Venezuela to tap its massive crude reserves:” – Tyler Durden

Russia condemns US ‘aggression’ against Venezuela – “The US president has claimed that Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro has been captured and flown out of the country” – RT

China Slams US ‘Hegemonic Acts’ After Strikes on Venezuela – “a Foreign Ministry spokesperson said in a statement late Saturday. “Such hegemonic acts of the US seriously violate international law and Venezuela’s sovereignty, and threaten peace and security in Latin America and the Caribbean region. China firmly opposes it.”” – Bloomberg News

America is a Gangster State – “The kidnapping of Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro and his wife solidifies America’s role as a gangster state. Violence does no generate peace. It generates violence. The immolation of international and humanitarian law, as the U.S. and Israel have done in Gaza, and as took place in Caracas, generates a world without laws, a world of failed states, warlords, rouge imperial powers and perpetual violence and chaos. If there is one lesson we should have learned in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Libya it is that regime change spawns Frankensteinian monsters of our own creation.” – Chris Hedges

Venezuela Attacks U.S. – “President Trump and First Lady Captured; Will Face Trial and Justice in Venezuela. Sometimes, imagining an opposite scenario can bring folly and illegality into relief. Imagine if Venezuela attacked the U.S. Imagine if President Trump and Melania Trump were seized, and that the Venezuelan attorney general said they would face justice in Venezuela. I’d imagine that nearly all Americans would see this as an act of war, a gross violation of national sovereignty. American vengeance would be swift. Of course, this is not Opposite Day. It’s the U.S. that has attacked Venezuela, seizing Maduro and his wife, with U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi vowing “They will soon face the full wrath of American justice on American soil in American courts.”” – Bill Astore

Trump Wakes the Hydra and Seals His Doom His new Venezuela War can only backfire on the Empire. Once again, the Empire has cut off the head of the snake, and will soon discover, once again, that it has only succeeded in waking the hydra. I am not sure what Marco Rubio and Donald Trump think is going to happen; I guess they think all they have to do is wait and the Venezuelan people will “spontaneously” rise up at CIA prodding and install their nice, pliable dictator who will gladly let the US steal Venezuelan oil and enrich Exxon at her own people’s expense because freedom.” – Ohio Barbarian

Yoink! Got Your Dictator! – “Maduro’s on a boat to New York. Trump will take Venezuela’s oil. Nice doing business with you. Let’s not sugarcoat it: this is a notable escalation in U.S. foreign policy and arguably the most direct military intervention in Latin America since Panama in 1989. The fact that President Trump authorized this without a clear public mandate and framed it as part of a broader campaign against cartels and corruption, ensures that debate will rage for weeks. Whether one views the move as bold leadership to remove an ally of China and Russia, or reckless overreach, largely depends on political worldview, but markets do not trade on ideology. One of the most immediate pressure points to watch here is energy. No doubt someone from OPEC getting into his $500,000 Bentley overnight felt a great disturbance in the force. There’s no doubt in my mind that Trump is going to now try and “keep the oil” from Venezuela in one form or another.” – Quoth the Raven  – THEY FRAME IT AS NARCO-TERRORISM SO THAT WE CAN CONDUCT THE OIL-TERRORISM!!!!

What Is Worse Than Donald Trump? – “More Donald Trump. Even when you begin to think that it can’t get any worse with Donald J. Trump as President of the United States the Orangeman does something that is so stupid and so reflective of a man who thinks only about himself that it makes one’s shudder in disbelief.” – Philip Giraldi

Jack Smith’s Tyrannical Arrogance – “Smith believes the government can prosecute any of us for rejecting official ‘truths.’” – J.B. Shurk

Israel Launches Its Latest “Iranian Revolution” As Trump Threatens War – “Israel is currently spearheading an online disinformation campaign against Iran with the intent of creating civil unrest. Agent provocateurs on the ground have weaponized peaceful protests to turn the situation violent. Across social media, AI-generated images and dated riot footage are being used to claim that a revolution has begun, as US President Donald Trump threatens military intervention.” – Robert Inlakesh

How’d Saudi Arabia End Up On The Same Side As The Muslim Brotherhood In Yemen? – “The Saudis’ growing ties with Muslim Brotherhood-aligned Turkiye, Qatar, and Iran; the Gaza War that broke out after October 7th; and the Ummah’s widespread support for Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood’s Palestinian branch, contributed to the Kingdom coming to see the group in a new light.” – Andrew Korybko

SITREP 1/2/26: Odessa Pressure Peaks, as Zelensky Announces Major Senior Staff Reshuffle – “MSM rags are beginning to cover the ‘urgent’ situation surrounding Ukraine’s Odessa,” – Simplicius

ECONOMIC NEWS

Varoufakis warns of dollar crisis… – “Yanis Varoufakis is well known in European circles as an economist. He claims to have attended a meeting at the BIS where central bankers discussed economic meltdown. this video does appear genuine and the content makes sense, rather than culled by an AI engine. The reason for reposting it is that if it is genuine and not AI-generated, central bank officials share the concerns which we have been writing stridently about particularly in recent months. And like us and Varoufakis, they are aware that there is little they can actually do to prevent a G7 financial collapse, centred on the US dollar. Their machinations will probably lead to capital controls and market closures without notice….” – Alasdair Macleod  – LINKED ABOUT THIS ON THURSDAY AS WELL IN AN ARTICLE BY ANTHONY JAMES HALL. APPEARS TO BE THE REAL DEAL!!!!

Ditching the Dollar Is the New Popular Trump Trade – “Out with the old, in with the new. Trade in your old bucks right on cue. One of the important stories that has been slowly emerging this year is the demise of the dollar. That is worth noting because for more than a decade, I resisted going with the dollar-collapse narrative that is popular in the economic-collapse sphere where I write, and that always proved to be the right position. However, at the start of the year, I switched and finally began predicting the dollar’s collapse was now likely to arrive quickly—” – David Haggith

America’s New “Value Menu” Economy Should Worry You – “The hottest restaurant items of 2025 aren’t gourmet burgers – they’re value meals. When eating out turns into a budgeting exercise, it reveals something deeper about inflation, the rising cost of living and the quiet erosion of our quality of life…” – Peter Reagan

Will 2026 Be The Year Dangerously Overvalued Stocks Revert To The Mean? (VIDEO) with Lance Roberts – Adam Taggart | Thoughtful Money®

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

The New Year’s Resolution That Makes You “Ready For Anything” – “Every January, off-grid folks make the same quiet promises to themselves. This is the year I finish it. The fence. The pantry. The power backup. The bag by the door. And then life crowds in, the calendar flips, and by fall, most of those promises are still sitting right where they were—about half done. This isn’t about guilt or motivation. It’s about whether the things you’ve been “meaning to get to” would actually work if you needed them tonight. That’s what this piece is about—and why it matters more than any new gear you could buy this year.” – Bill Heid

My Favorite Cheap Chest Rig. (VIDEO) – Modern Refugee.  – SHORT VIDEO, LOGICAL AND INFORMATIVE FROM MODERN REFUGEE!!!

Copper Cookware Pan – Pros, Cons, and Choosing the Right One – “Copper cookware has a long, respected history in traditional kitchens. Its beauty is obvious, but its real value lies in how intuitively it cooks. Copper responds instantly to heat changes, distributes warmth evenly across the surface, and gives you control that few other materials can match. ” – Self-Sufficient Projects Staff

0 Ingenious Ways to Freeze-Dry Your Food at Home for 10+ Years Shelf Life – “Most people think a deep freezer is the key to long-term food storage, but what happens when the power goes out? There’s a reason pioneers and survivalists alike have turned to freeze-drying.” – Ask a Prepper

Winter Security Reset: A Practical Check-Up for Canadian Homes During Outages and Deep Cold – “Winter security isn’t about being dramatic. It’s about not being caught off guard when the conditions that break systems—freezing rain, high winds, heavy snow, long nights—also increase the chances of opportunistic theft and delayed response times. In Canada, January is the month where many households discover their “security plan” was actually just a Wi-Fi camera and a porch light.” – denob

VERSE FOR THE DAY

Habakkuk 3:16    When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when he cometh up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops.

The list I wrangled out of GPT is only partial. It is truly astonishing. Behold the materials used to make synthetic “building blocks of life”.

NEWS

America’s Crime Syndicate Government: Profiteering, Protection Rackets & a Pay-to-Play Presidency – “Pay-to-play schemes. Protection rackets. Extortion. Corruption. Self-enrichment. Graft. Grift. Brutality. Roaming bands of thugs smashing car windows and terrorizing communities. Immunity for criminal behavior coupled with prosecutions of whistleblowers. This is how a crime syndicate operates—not a constitutional republic. What we are witnessing today is the steady transformation of the federal government—especially the executive branch—into a criminalized system of power in which justice is weaponized, law is selectively enforced, and crime becomes a form of political currency. While the American police state has long marched in lockstep with the old truism that power corrupts—and absolute power corrupts absolutely—the Trump administration has ceased even the pretense of being bound by the Constitution.” -John & Nisha Whitehead

Jeffrey Epstein and the Pedophocracy – “Underage sex, blackmail, and Israel. ever been noted for getting their terms right, so to the world Epstein is a pedophile. To begin to unravel this mystery, we need to look at Jeffrey Epstein himself. We are told that Epstein was born into a blue-collar family. His father was allegedly a groundskeeper. If you’ve ever heard of another Epstein who was a groundskeeper, let me know who that was. Epstein dropped out of college, just like me. Unlike me, and anyone else in the free world without a college degree, he nevertheless was allowed to teach math at an elite New York City private school, run by the father of future Bush crime family loyalist and Trump Attorney General William Barr. From there, he entered the world of finance. High finance. Well, don’t all college dropouts do that? Do we sense some missing connections there?” – Donald Jeffries – VERY GOOD READ FROM DONALD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EPSTEIN PRIMER: Senate Unanimously Approves Bill To Release The Epstein Files – “And JPMorgan’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein…” – 2nd Smartest Guy in the World

The intel scandal behind Prince Andrew’s twisted Epstein exploits – “Andrew’s sexual depravity shocks even Epstein. Epstein expressed awe at the degeneracy of Andrew, who he said possessed “the dirtiest mind I’ve ever seen,” concluding: “He likes to engage in stuff that’s even kinky to me – and I’m the king of kink!”” – Kit Klarenberg

The Survivor Revolution: Epstein Victims Announce New Political Force and Vow to Release All Names of Epstein Associates Themselves – “Several of the victims of Jeffrey Epstein held a press conference in D.C. today along with Congress Representatives Ro Khanna, Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene, just before the House voted overwhelmingly to pass H.Res.577 – Demanding the immediate release of all Federal documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein. Preferring to call themselves “survivors” as opposed to “victims,” they announced a new “political movement” in the U.S. that they call “The Survivor Revolution.”” – Brian Shilhavy

War with Everyone, Including Ourselves – “Across the West nobody knows what’s real anymore. Western governments accuse their geopolitical enemies of using social media platforms to engage in information warfare. At the same time, Western governments direct information warfare against their own citizens. Antifa terrorists riot against capitalism while Western capitalists bankroll Antifa’s mayhem. Big Pharma makes money by making sure everyone is sick. Big Tech defends free speech while censoring online accounts. Big Banks defend free markets while offshoring industries and inflating paper currencies. Western politicians divide the world between “democracies” and “dictatorships,” while monitoring all electronic communications and pushing for “vaccine” passports, digital IDs, facial recognition, mass surveillance, and central bank digital currencies. Are we at war with foreign nations, or are our own nations at war with us? Both seem to be true.” – J.B. Shurk

A Question Of Character – “Okay, what’s it going to be? So far there is not one governmental system that allows a person to simply pursue their life’s goals without eventually becoming a host to a chorus of leeches. Paper nations are good as long as the paper is backed by gunpowder. The minute that threat is removed, politicians and bloodsuckers rise like weeds out of fertile ground. Maybe a constitutional republic is close, but not close enough.” – T.L. Davis

FIGHTING FOR AN AMERICA THAT LONG AGO CEASED TO EXIST – Hardscrabble Farmer

Will Trump’s “America First” Moves Make the World Sicker? – “Donald Trump’s new crusade against “foreign pharma freeloaders” looks, on the surface, like classic populist theater: punish overseas drug makers, bring production home, and finally make medicines cheaper for American patients. The more profound impact could simply make a lot of people succumb to illness.” – Phil Butler,

The Swamp Got Bigger, Better Paid & More Secretive Since 2020 – “If you were told a business increased their staff headcount by 5% over four years but its payroll rose 24% over that time, all the while withholding the names of 39% of their staff, would you invest in that company? Unlikely. But that’s just what the United State government does, funded by taxpayer dollars and operating as if accountable to no one.” – Open The Books

Germany’s looming pension apocalypse – “For two decades, politicians have stared this beast in the face and kicked the can down the road. Now the crisis is upon them and there are no solutions in sight.” – eugyppius

Zionists Are Freaking Out About Losing Control Of The Narrative – “More and more often we’re seeing them say the quiet parts out loud as they frantically scramble to manage perceptions and manipulate minds around the world.” – Caitlin Johnstone

Ukraine is drowning in a swamp of corruption – and the West is trying to make it look like a good thing – “Kiev’s establishment is burning to the ground in the Energoatom Mafia scandal, while the media and think tanks keep insisting this is fine” – Tarik Cyril Amar

Ukraine’s Days are Numbered – “Like a bad Italian opera, the fat lady is singing from a balcony overlooking a city that is ablaze. Zaporhyzhia, Dneipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Kherson, Kharkiv, Sumy… The Russian ground forces are attacking in all of these locations, which represents about 1,000 miles of territory stretching from Sumy in the north to Zaporhyzhia in the south. Russia is inflicting an average of 1,335 casualties a day on the Ukrainian forces, which translates into 456,695 losses in 2025 as of November 17.” – Larry C. Johnson

ECONOMIC NEWS

The Global Economy is Very, Very Unwell If you look at the S&P 500 or the Nasdaq over the past few months, you might believe we are in a booming economy, resilient against all odds. But if you look literally anywhere else—at the labor market, the shadow banking system, or the global trade data—a starkly different reality emerges. We are currently witnessing a global synchronized downturn. – “” – Justin Hart

U.S. economy grew at an above-average speed before shutdown, delayed reports show. What about now? – “Big drop in August trade deficit could add to third-quarter GDP” – Jeffry Bartash

50-Year Mortgages Aren’t a Solution – They’re a Warning – “Homes priced out of reach? Well, a 50-year mortgage might sound like a clever workaround – but it’s really a warning sign. When only half-century loans can make a home affordable, it shows just how out of balance the economy has become…” – Peter Reagan

The Hidden Price Tag on Holiday Gifts: Who Really Pays for Cash Back Rewards? – “Every holiday season, millions of Americans chase 5% cash back on toys, electronics, and groceries. What few realize is that credit card “rewards” aren’t free—they’re baked into the price of everything on the shelf, driving up costs for everyone. The cash back scheme increases the costs of consumer goods, food, fuel, and services for everyone. Cash and debit users—often lower-income families—get nothing back but still pay the markup.” – Breeauna Sagdal

Social Security Fiscal Year 2025: Trust Fund Balance, Income, Outgo, Deficit, and Interest Rates – “The deficit doubled, as benefit payments spiked in part due to the expansion of Social Security, while income rose only slowly” – Wolf Richter

Is The Credit Bubble Popping Now? (VIDEO) with Alasdair Macleod – “Alasdair MacLeod returns to break down why today’s credit-driven market bubble is showing the same stress fractures seen just before the 2008 global financial crisis. He explains how extreme margin leverage, weakening collateral, and a shift from QT to renewed QE are signaling deep instability beneath the surface. MacLeod also highlights record central-bank gold accumulation, China’s gold-yuan convertibility push, and the emerging BRICS settlement architecture as signs of a major shift away from the dollar-based system. He warns that when the credit bubble finally bursts, the fallout will hit financial assets hard while physical precious metals stand apart as real money in a world losing trust in fiat currencies.” – Liberty and Finance

Rearranging the Chairs – “Treasury Secretary Bessent just said he doesn’t want to be Fed Chair but that person will hopefully be named by Xmas – Trump thinks he already knows who he wants . Does anybody think it’s going to be a strong, independent, gnostic, hawk deliberately ignorant of geopolitics, who will focus on 2% CPI and clash with the White House and Treasury? I thought not. Markets will soon focus on this rearranging of Chairs… and that it’s on the Titanic(?) ” – Michael Every

Hyundai Declares War On Right To Repair: Requires $60 Weekly Subscription, $2,000+ Approved Hardware Adapter, And Constant Internet Connection To Fix Brake Pads – “You will own nothing and be happy.” – The WinePress

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

How the Amish Would Respond to Grid Down – “When the lights go out across America, the Amish would barely flinch. While the rest of the country would be scrambling for generators and batteries, they would hitch their horses, light the lamps, and carry on as usual. Their lives already run on a system that doesn’t depend on the grid. This is what a grid-down world would look like through Amish eyes, and what the rest of us can learn from them.” – Alec Deacon

Experience with a Mouse-Proof Cellar – “This article is about my experience using a shipping container as a mouse-proof cellar. A couple of important notes up front – shipping containers are not designed to have a load-bearing roof. Also, it is essential that the container be installed above the groundwater table to prevent infiltration with water.” – Pescadores

7 Easy Vegetables to Grow Indoors – Jenna Clark

How to Soundproof Your Home For Under $50 – “For those off-grid or in more remote setups, it ensures that your activities, whether storing supplies, recording tutorials, or planning survival strategies, remain private and uninterrupted.” – Kate L. Gilmour

Are You TRULY Adaptable Enough to Leave Everything Behind to Survive? – “The final result here for many preppers is gonna be the fact that they might die, because they will value too much their physical preps, and they may fail to recognize the moment when they need to leave everything and run.” – Selco Begovic
