THE BIG PICTURE 

MAGA Land—-No Country For Old (10th Amendment) Men – “The founders of the Republic understood something about the requisites of Liberty that the Trumpified GOP has apparently completely forgotten. Namely, that the accumulation of power in the State and its centralization in a far away national capital is to be avoided at all hazards. But also, and most pertinently with respect to the populist excesses of the Trumpified GOP, the founders included the 10th Amendment. In 28 simple words the latter erected a barrier to the rise of a Leviathan on the Potomac that ranks along with the rights of speech, assembly and property at the very top of the hierarchy of liberty’s safeguards .Needless to say, ever since the New Deal, especially, the efficacy of the 10th amendment has been relentlessly eroded.” – David Stockman

Initially, it looked like each country was acting independent of one another, but the sheer momentum and coincidental timing beg deeper questions about global coordination.” – George Calder

What is Power For? – “Now, try to imagine Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (Jabba the Pritzker) as a Confederate general, his juddering bulk astride a panting war-horse, as he gallops into battle against federal positions in Millennium Park, Chicago. . . . Yeah, in the immortal words of Homey D. Clown, I don’t think so. Yet these seem to be the fantasies typically entertained in our times by the Big Dawgs of the Democratic Party: a confederacy of dweebs. While Mr. Trump uses presidential power to bring the Gaza War to resolution, officials in the Party of Chaos, distributed through the federal bureaucracy, and down into the state and city ranks, maneuver to ignite Civil War 2.0 in our country. They seem to be mighty pissed-off about something, but what could it really be? Surely not just the removal by deportation of countless border jumpers they ushered in during the baleful term of “Joe Biden” to beef-up their voter rolls. No, what galls them is the sheer hemorrhaging of their power” – James Howard Kunstler

Is Trump Preparing for the Next Civil War, or Already Fighting It? – “We are fascinated by what we see on our screens – in Gaza, in Ukraine and now Venezuela, even in the Pacific. Yet, we must have been getting a snack when the plot twisted and the peace and America First campaign morphed into Tomahawks to Kiev, brutal US-assisted genocide in Gaza, the US Navy blowing up fishermen and other civilians in international waters at will, without consequence. The current idiotic fiascos – NATO’s Ukraine and Israel’s expansionist murder spree – have been curiously unwinnable, and even more curiously, unstoppable. Has the next American civil war started yet? If civil war can be defined by the militarized command, control and exploitation of one part of the state or society by another, it’s been going on in the US for a long time.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

Nobel Peace Prize Awarded To Democracy Activist María Corina Machado – “Early Friday, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the prize to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado “for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.”” – Tyler Durden

A Strange Choice for the Peace Prize – “Machado has been cheering on Trump’s military buildup in the Caribbean and even praising his murderous boat attacks.” – Daniel Larison

When Presidents Kill – “During the past six weeks, President Donald Trump has ordered U.S. troops to attack and destroy four speed boats in the Caribbean Sea, 1,500 miles from the United States. The president revealed that the attacks were conducted without warning, were intended not to stop but to kill all persons on the boats, and succeeded in their missions. Trump has claimed that his victims are “narco-terrorists” who were planning to deliver illegal drugs to willing American buyers. He apparently believes that because these folks are presumably foreigners, they have no rights that he must honor and he may freely kill them. As far as we know, none of these nameless faceless persons was charged or convicted of any federal crime. We don’t know if any were Americans. But we do know that all were just extrajudicially executed. Can the president legally do this? In a word: NO. ” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

Donald Trump’s ‘Combo War’ On Terror And Drugs Is Out Of Control – “In early October, Secretary of War Mike Hegseth announced that U.S. naval forces had sunk yet another boat off the coast of Venezuela. The vessel was suspected of trying to ship illegal drugs to the United States. This episode was just the latest in a series of such attacks. There are several problems with Washington’s official justification regarding this and earlier incidents. Once again, U.S. officials provided no evidence that this targeted vessel was actually carrying drugs, much less that they were headed for the United States.” – Ted Galen Carpenter

US ‘war on drugs’ is just another regime change attempt – “At least 21 Venezuelans have been killed by the American troops for “narcotrafficking” without evidence, judge or jury ” – Eva Bartlett

Thoughts On The Ceasefire News – “Israel continued to hammer Gaza with military explosives on Thursday despite the announcement of the first stages of a ceasefire agreement with Hamas. Israel always does this. When normal people get a ceasefire agreement they think “Good, this means we can finally stop fighting and killing.” Whenever Israelis get a ceasefire agreement they go, “This means we have to hurry up and kill as many people as possible before it takes effect.” But it does appear that the killing and abuse will at least diminish for a time, which is an objectively good thing no matter how you slice it. ” – Caitlin Johnstone

All Covid ‘Vaccines’ Cause Cancer, Major Study Confirms – “Several leading experts are now sounding the alarm after a major study confirmed that all Covid “vaccines” and “boosters” caused spikes in multiple deadly cancers. The bombshell study of more than 8 million people from a team of world-renowned South Korean researchers confirms that both mRNA and non-mRNA Covid shots are linked to a dramatic increase in cancer risk.

You see, by this point in time, the Pope was both famous and infamous. The papacy had a history-long history of taking over kingdoms and countries throughout the world using assorted schemes.

And our financial leaders work with smugglers in South America: Many many thinkers have identified the source of the deep evil that plagues us in Britain, in the City of London, the face of which is the British Royal Family.

They are indistinguishable from one another in their cold, sterile neglect of human beings. I am now sixty nine years old. I’m aware that some of those stuck in these godforsaken places are younger than me. I shiver at the prospect of ever being a patient, and not merely a visitor. I look into their wrinkled faces, as I pass them in the hallways. Some of them gesture, and try to say something, which I usually can’t understand. There are always loud cries of “help me” emanating from the rooms.” – Donald Jeffries

Individualism and the Violence of the Identitarian Left – “Many people were shocked to see the identitarian left erupting in ghoulish celebration when news broke that Charlie Kirk had been assassinated. Students who despised Kirk’s political views were seen chanting, “We got Charlie in the neck.” The British sociologist Frank Furedi argues that these students are not confined to a radical unhinged fringe, nor do they merely represent “the acts of a few morons” as many people suppose. Rather, the celebrations reflect a broader “fetish of savagery” on the left, driven by academic theories that treat violence as “an act of self-care” for members of venerated identity groups. The fact that the notion of individualism is now tarnished by its associations with selfish and violent identitarian groups therefore poses a challenge for modern libertarianism, especially since individual liberty with its doctrines of free speech and freedom from state control lie at the heart of the libertarian creed.” – Wanjiru Njoya

Free Speech After Charlie Kirk: An American Lesson for Pam Bondi, Donald Trump & Netanyahu – “Let us be clear about what freedom of speech à la America truly means: The words people speak, chant, write and tweet; the beliefs they are known to hold, the flags they fly or burn, the symbolic, non-violent ceremonies and rituals they enact, the insignia, paraphernalia; the goose-stepping, Hitler salutes they muck around with—provided no physical aggression is involved (violence against animals included), all this counts as protected speech, licit in natural law.” – Ilana Mercer

Why, sadly, it may be too late for Britain to reverse course – “Immigration alone is not inherently a problem— even mass migration— as the US can attest. Between 1880 and 1920, roughly 20 million immigrants poured into the United States—Italians, Irish, Germans, Poles, and Jews from Eastern Europe. With a US population of just 76 million in 1900, that wave amounted to over one-quarter of the entire country in a single generation. The difference, of course, is that there were no special benefits; early American immigrants didn’t receive taxpayer-funded housing or cash handouts. They came to work hard and make a better life for themselves. Plus America’s early immigrants assimilated— often enthusiastically. They came to America to become American. ” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

On his inauguration day, President Trump began discussing Gaza in terms of valuable real estate. Trump has chosen war criminal Tony Blair to oversee the rebuilding of Gaza. And on September 24th, the Central Synagogue in Manhattan explained how the gods demand human blood for humanity to survive. The greatest lie humanity tells itself is that we have outgrown human sacrifice. We call it by different names now and make our offering to different gods. We offer young men we call soldiers as if the designation means that their mothers cry less when they die. We call masses of humanity collateral damage and turn our eyes away from the pictures of their lifeless bodies as we sip our morning coffee.” – Greg Reese

The Deadline Approaches . . . – “We are very close to the “deadline” Trump insolently laid down for Russia to negotiate terms with Ukraine. Where does the president of the United States get the authority to set “deadlines” – with ominous, hinted-at consequences – for other nations; in particular, those that have not attacked the United States? It is not a question of authority; there is none such in that handsomely written old document that the government pretends defines and limits its powers. It is (and always has been) a question of power. When asserted it becomes authority. Trump, following the precedents set by so many of his predecessors – simply asserts his authority to do whatever he wants, because he has acquired the power to do it.” – Eric Peters

Copper’s collapse bugs silver – “Trump backing off on copper is hitting all metals. US tariffs are in disarray and are backfiring badly on the US economy and the dollar. The case for gold and silver is even stronger. With Comex’s August contract running off the board and copper’s collapse it is hardly surprising that precious metals traded lower this week. In European trade this morning, gold was $3294, down $43 from Friday’s close, and silver at $36.48 down $1.65. Before observing this week’s action in gold and silver, a comment on copper and other base metals is required. President Trump has relented on US import tariffs on copper ore, concentrates, and cathodes leaving 50% tariffs on imports of semi-finished items such as wires and pipes. Consequently, copper futures fell by 25% this week hitting every paper-traded metal, including silver. Copper’s chart is below:” – Alasdair Macleod

Memoirs of a Disaster Survivor – Part 1 – “This article is a firsthand account of my personal survival experience with three natural disasters that have affected me during my lifetime. To begin with, you should be familiar with the region where I live. I was born, raised, and still live in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina. What many today call prepping has been and remains a way of life in these hills. We raise gardens, and many also raise livestock. We also preserve our own vegetables. These home-canned goods along with hunting and fishing supplement our meat supply. None of this is a guarantee that what you have will prevent loss of life, property, or utilities during any natural disaster.” – AppComms
