THE BIG PICTURE

Jesus Is The Son Of God – “I believe in God the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and Earth; And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary. So begins the Apostles’ Creed, one of the oldest Christian declarations of faith. This is where my faith begins. These points are the “red lines” of my faith, points which are not open to debate or compromise. This is where I stand in my faith. If you say that Jesus was a “good man”, you and I do not agree, and will not agree. Jesus was not a man. Jesus is the Son of God. Period. End of Sentence. End of Discussion.” – Peter Nayland Kust  – GOOD READ FROM PETER AS USUAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Active and Honest Dissent Cannot Exist Without Actionable Intent – “As of late, I hear much blind rhetoric, especially from the ‘alternative’ space, that people are waking up and will not accept the obvious tyranny that has consumed them. This so-called ‘awakening’ could not happen in a vacuum, as the tyrannical behavior by the ruling and political class was voluntarily accepted and allowed to take place, while the general population continues to believe in this heinous system, and continues to attempt to change it by simply putting new tyrants in positions of power. The system itself, which is the problem, has not been altered in any way, and is still embraced by the vast majority. The ‘awakening’ mentioned is false, because it has no teeth.” – Gary D. Barnett

War Tax Report: 04/17/2026 -“In Southwest Virginia, where I live, regular unleaded is about $4 per gallon – “cheap” relative to what it costs in several other states, notably California (where family reports it is closer to $6 per gallon). On a personal level, I am paying an additional $15 to fill up the old truck – which has a roughly 15 gallon tank – and an additional $22 to fill up the old Trans-Am’s tank. Some rough math: An additional $15 per week adds up to about $60 additional per month – which comes to about $720 additional annually I wasn’t having to pay last year. This is what I got for voting for Trump; i.e., a yuge tax increase. In addition to the tax increases Trump likes to refer to as “tariffs,” as if we didn’t have to pay for those, either. If things stay as they are, Trump’s stupid, evil war will have cost me about $2,100 by the time we get to the end of his current term in office. Unlike Trump, I’m not a billionaire, for whom $2,100 is pocket change. Trump, being a billionaire, does not seem to get that $2,100 is a great deal of money for most of us, by which I mean the people who – speaking generally – voted for Trump in the hope that he did understand that $2,100 is a lot of money for us.” – Eric Peters

11 US Scientists Missing or Dead: What We Know and What We Don’t – “A nightmare to unravel a conspiracy theorist’s dream. It’s gotten to the point where President Donald Trump had to be briefed on it.” – Leesa K. Donner

First They Came For the Sheep, and I Did Not Speak Out… – “PETA, eat your heart out!. Via Remix News: “A 19-year-old Afghan national has been arrested and charged following a series of brutal sexual attacks on goats and sheep in Pennes-Mirabeau, a municipality in Bouches-du-Rhône, near Marseille. Frankly, I don’t understand why this love story should provoke xenophobic outrage I’ve seen in response on social media. What’s the big deal? So we’ve got some raped sheep and a few goats with PTSD. To quote Her Grace Hillary Clinton, what difference, at this point, does it make? Diversity™ Is Our Strength, and if those goats can’t appreciate that, I’d say they’re in desperate need of some re-education.” – Ben Bartee – AH YES, JUST A LITTLE CULTURAL ENRICHMENT. I’M SURE THEY’LL LET MORE IMMIGRANTS COME INTO FRANCE ANYWAY!!!

Psychiatrist tells MPs that depression, eating disorders could be acceptable reasons for euthanasia – “As Canada considers expanding Medical Assistance in Dying to include mental illness, Dr. Mona Gupta was questioned by a special committee on possible circumstances for euthanasia.” – Anthony Murdoch

Suicide Should Not Be a Government Service – “MAiD sets the extremely dangerous precedent of granting government the authority to kill an innocent person. The standard rebuttal to this argument is that the innocent person must request the “service” of suicide. MAiD is not a uniquely Canadian issue. State-assisted suicide has spread quickly across the Western world. Increasingly, the media and public have been asking whether the safeguards are being applied or are inadequate. ” – Wendy McElroy

THE EPSTEIN FILES INVESTIGATION – “I’ve heard back from No. 10”: The Epstein Email That Puts a Sitting British Prime Minister’s Downing Street in the UK Visa Expediting Business – “In December 2012, a sitting British Prime Minister’s team personally offered to expedite a UK visa for one of Jeffrey Epstein’s young female associates. The offer routed through the senior British diplomat in New York. The email is sitting in the US Department of Justice’s Epstein Files — and nobody has reported it.” – Sayer J

 

 

 

NEWS

Why Iran can outlast America in this war – “This map provides yet more evidence there was no long-game strategy behind Trump’s decision to launch the catastrophic 28 Feb sneak attack on Iran. The entire world may crash into a great depression, and even famine, but island nations will suffer the most. And island nations are many of our most important allies. The INSTC cuts shipping time from Russia to India in normal times, and during the shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz, it still connects Iran to all of Asia. The North-South route also means Russia is less dependent on sending ships through the Baltic, North Sea, North Atlantic and Mediterranean, which are NATO areas of operation. The Caspian Sea is not. On the other hand, America’s allies, the UK, Ireland, Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines, Australia and New Zealand are island nations, and the closure of the SoH is an absolute catastrophe for them.” – Matt Bracken

Hormuz Deal Collapses Amidst US Lies and Iranian Hardliner Entrenchment – “The Hormuz shuffle has turned into a truly incomprehensible dance. A mere day after Trump had exulted over the full reopening of the Strait, things have again slid into total disarray, with Iran in turn announcing Hormuz’s closure once again to stupefied and exhausted onlookers. The problem seems to have stemmed with a series of grossly inflated US claims about the “deal” that was struck with Iran.” – Simplicius

Trump’s Mysterious Social Media Message Amid Rising Iran Tensions – “Shortly after a crucial meeting in the White House regarding the escalating Iran situation, President Donald Trump ignited speculation with a puzzling social media update. The content featured a video of Frank Sinatra performing the iconic song “My Way,” provoking discussions online about its significance. The song’s themes of determination and independence — particularly the phrase “I did it my way” — led many to speculate on a deeper message. Although many connected the post to the ongoing crisis with Iran, it’s worth noting that this track is a long-standing favorite of President Trump. He has used it on numerous significant occasions throughout his presidency.” – Hunter Fielding  – ALTHOUGH HE’S USED IT BEFORE, WHY NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“Now, The End Is Near” – Trump Posts Frank Sinatra Video, The Song He Played When He Left Office The First Time, As Massive Insider Trading Continues Amidst Iran War 🎵 “And now, the end is near, And so I face the final curtain” 🎵- The WinePress

From Leverage to Liability: The Hormuz Strait Is Now Iran’s Biggest Weakness – “For half a century, the Strait of Hormuz was Iran’s weapon. Today, it is its noose. The mathematics of energy have flipped, and with them the balance of coercive power in the Persian Gulf.” – Daniel Lacalle

JFK Versus Trump on Cuba and the U.S. National-Security State – “According to media reports, it appears increasingly likely that as soon as they put their Iran intervention to rest, President Trump and the U.S. national-security establishment will initiate a military attack on Cuba. Trump himself has alluded to this possibility by saying that he could “take Cuba” or “Cuba’s next.” That’s assuming, of course, that the Cuban people haven’t already succumbed to mass starvation and illness as a result of Trump’s and the Pentagon’s brutal and ruthless oil blockade on the island. The possibility that Trump, the Pentagon, the CIA, and the NSA will attack another sovereign and independent country that has never attacked the United States can’t help but bring to mind President John F. Kennedy as well as the war that he was waging at the end of his life, not against Cuba but rather against the U.S. national-security establishment itself.” – Jacob G. Hornberger

China, Iran, USA: A complex Game of Power – “The ongoing U.S. war against Iran goes far beyond a mere regional crisis; it is a clear demonstration of the persistent instability inherent in American global hegemony. Through their disregard for international law, sovereignty, and multilateral diplomacy, the United States reaffirms its belief in the legitimacy of coercive power as an instrument of control.” – Lorenzo Maria Pacini

Israel’s Southern Lebanon Gambit: When “Self-Defense” Starts Looking Like Conquest – “Escalation in the Middle East has intensified doubts about the reality of a ceasefire between the United States and Iran, as Israel’s military operations in southern Lebanon continue and provoke increasingly serious international criticism.” -Phil Butler

Colombian leader warns US of Latin American ‘rebellion’ – “The Trump administration’s unprecedented interference – including kidnapping Maduro – risks a historic backlash, Gustavo Petro has said” – RT

Britain is turning into a Zionist police state to protect Israel – “The UK is pulling out all the stops to persecute a pro-Palestine activist group, including blanket gag orders and courtroom deception” – Tarik Cyril Amar

Did Zelensky Threaten Lukashenko At Trump’s Behest? – “Something clearly happened over the past month in his talks with the US, perhaps it refusing to compromise as part of the “big deal” that they’re negotiating and instead demanding unilateral concessions, so it might have fallen upon Zelensky to threaten Lukashenko at Trump’s behest.” – Andrew Korybko

 

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

Why the Donald Is Up Shit’s Strait Without a Paddle – “You could say the impending stagflationary tsunami serves him right because Trumpy is an arrogant, clueless know-it-all, who basically knows practically nothing at all. At least with regard to the manifold issues of prosperity, constitutional governance and war & peace now plaguing the nation. Thus, he was saying quite militantly before February 28th that there is no inflation, claiming during his recent speech to the 2026 Davos conference that— “We have virtually no inflation… inflation [has been] defeated… Grocery prices, energy prices, airfares, mortgage rates, rent and car payments are all coming down, and they’re coming down fast.” Not so fast would have been the better expression of it, and yesterday’s PPI report for March surely removed all doubt.” – David Stockman

Median Monthly Condo Fee Was $420 in 2025, up 29% from 2019 – “Not a penny of that is in the CPI or PCE. Nor are property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, or special assessments.” – Mish

The Next 30-60 Days Will Be Hugely Violent In World Financial Markets (INTERVIEW) with Alasdair Macleod – “If we look at the US dollar Index fall below 96.8, which is currently trading around 98, then it really does look like curtains for the dollar. And the rise in US bond yield from 1% up to over 4%, when you see that go above 5% you just watch because the equity markets are going to crash. Now the reason I mention this in the context of gold and silver is because there is a lot of financial violence ahead of us in the coming month or two” – King World News

Is A “Vicious” Treasury Market Emergency At Our Doorstep? – “When Henry Paulson steps back into the public conversation after years of relative silence, it’s not random timing. In his interview, Paulson is explicitly warning that the scale of U.S. borrowing is now testing confidence in the Treasury market itself. With federal debt approaching $39 trillion, he points to the risk that the long-standing assumption of endless demand for U.S. government debt may no longer hold.” – Quoth the Raven

Crude Oil Panic To Strike Asia Within 30 Days; Media Wakes To Mispricing In Oil Markets – Silver & Gold Likely Next – “O What A Tangled Web We Weave When First We Practice To Deceive. Some problems cannot be solved with coercion or force. And some problems offer such dangerous consequences of triggering greater system failure, if mishandled, that coercion or force should not even be contemplated. Blowback. The world is observing the latter in the 50 days since the start of the February 28 attack on Iran and the world’s hydrocarbon energy supply. Since the start of the Iran war, lost production has drawn some 650 million (M) barrels of crude oil from global stockpiles.” – David Jensen

The Theft of Your Good Deflation – “Your dollar has lost 96-97 percent of its purchasing power since 1913. This is not bad luck or mysterious market forces. It is the result of deliberate policy choices that steadily, quietly drained your wealth—and convinced you it was being done for your benefit.” – John McKearn

The Day You Realize the Old Answers Don’t Work Anymore – Bill Heid

How to Make Your Own Bricks – ” Bricks throughout history have been made from a variety of materials mostly determined by what was available in any given area and its ability to bind and dry into a strong, workable form.Regardless of the type of brick, most follow a set process in steps: Collection of materials Combining materials Mixing with water Setting the shape of the bricks in forms or molds Releasing and drying the bricks In some instances, an additional step was added which involves firing the bricks either in a kiln or large oven or in a more primitive approach, building a large and very hot fire around the stacked bricks. ” – Steve Nubie

Your First 7 Days Without Normal Supply Chains – “Most disruptions don’t start with a clear moment. There’s no announcement. No obvious beginning. Things just stop working the way they used to. Deliveries are delayed. Shelves look thinner. Prices shift. Services slow down. What was routine becomes inconsistent—and stays that way longer than expected. You don’t notice it all at once. But you feel it. If you haven’t covered the basics yet, start with the first 72 hours—that’s where most disruptions begin to take shape:” – denob

IMAGE FOR THE DAY

 

 

 

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK  (SPEAKING OF DIRE STRAITS. USED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, BUT HAD TO USE IT AGAIN)

You get a shiver in the dark
It’s raining in the park, but meantime
South of the river, you stop, and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie, double-four time
You feel alright when you hear the music ring

Well, now you step inside
But you don’t see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
Competition in other places
Ah, but the horns, they’re blowing that sound
Way on down south
Way on down south, London town

Check out guitar George
He knows all the chords
Mind, it’s strictly rhythm
He doesn’t wanna make it cry or sing
Yes and an old guitar is all he can afford
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing

And Harry doesn’t mind if he doesn’t make the scene
He’s got a daytime job, he’s doing alright
He can play the honky tonk like anything
Saving it up for Friday night
With the Sultans
With the Sultans of Swing
Yeah

And a crowd of young boys
They’re fooling around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies
And their platform soles
They don’t give a damn
About any trumpet-playing band
It ain’t what they call “Rock and Roll”
And the Sultans
Yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole
Creole

And then the man, he steps right up to the microphone
And says at last, just as the time bell rings
“Goodnight, now it’s time to go home”
Then he makes it fast with one more thing
“We are the Sultans—
We are the Sultans of Swing”

( Sultans of Swing by Mark Knopfler )

THE BIG PICTURE

Crucifixion and Renaissance – Whether one believes in the deity of Jesus or not, whether one believes that Christ was resurrected on an April day 2000 years ago, or not, there is no disputing the magnificence of the “New Way” brought into being by the Nazarene. It toppled the Roman code in a relatively short time. And despite the corruption of its message by the institutions entrusted to promote it — alas, the fate of institutions is always one of perfidy — it has survived in many of us, skeptics, agnostics, atheists and believers, and it guides our approach to life.”” – New Zealand Doc  – VERY GOOD READ, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AND DESCRIBES THE SUFERING JESUS WENT THROUGH BECAUSE CRUCIFIXION WAS DESIGNED TO MAKE THE PERSON SUFFER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Easter Isn’t God Saying “You’re Fine as You Are”… It’s God Making You New -Bill Heid

The System Being Built While the World Burns (VIDEO) – “Announced at Davos in January 2026, the carbon market platform EcoGuard automates the full carbon credit lifecycle. The carbon market is expected to reach $5 trillion by 2035. This infrastructure is designed to be “invisible and ubiquitous” — the goal is for every transaction, settlement, and data point to be managed behind the scenes so that the user is not aware of it. Also at Davos last January, Palantir CEO Alex Karp said that AI “will destroy humanities jobs,” and described a future in which high school students train for factory jobs, no one goes to college or immigrates, and black-box software run by major government contractors determines whether society is being run properly. For the more compliant, the so-called 15-minute city, smart city, and freedom city models are being built to incorporate digital ID, carbon tracking, and population monitoring. Where you live, how far you travel, and what your carbon footprint is are already being tracked in multiple countries and several US cities” – Greg Reese  – ANOTHER GOOD ONE FROM GREG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Seditious Global Censorship Project Tightens Its Noose – “That the assassination of Charlie Kirk might have been a shadow government operation is gaining traction in the hive mind. Some of Candace Owen’s suspicions are gaining serious adherents in that the curious are nailing down some of her assertions, scattered as they are, preposterous as some appear. The Egyptians, the Masons, the building in Delaware, what the what? I don’t know if Erika Kirk is an old fashioned MKUltra sex operative – they apparently specialized in creating them – but Kirk himself apparently, was entirely within her thrall, uxorious in the extreme. Until he wasn’t. She was a full-on partner at Turning Point, managed the donors, their money and put on events especially for them, and he was sent out as the face of the operation. On his last night, there is suspicion – given his actions and his texts to friends – that they were headed for a divorce as he planned to uncouple from his Chabady Jewish supremacist funders. Plus, very against the Iran war.” – Elizabeth Nickson

The Deep State Doesn’t Send Hitmen — It Sends Invoices. Until now… – “People imagine the deep state as shadow figures and black helicopters. That’s the movie version. The real version is a law firm’s billing system. The deep state’s most reliable weapon has never been secrecy. It’s been time — specifically, the billable hour. Every motion filed, every extension requested, every round of “further review” is another invoice. Another drain. Another reason to quit. You don’t need to defeat someone on the merits if you can exhaust them on process. The Parking Fight Is the Template.  It sounds small. That’s why it’s perfect. Most people assume they’re wrong when they get a ticket. The system counts on that assumption. The cost of fighting — time, process, confusion — exceeds the fine. So they pay. Multiplied by millions of citations a year, that’s a billion-dollar operation built entirely on the expectation of surrender. But once you understand the actual foundation — notice requirements, sign compliance, proper setup under federal standards — you start asking different questions. Those questions expose structural cracks that were always there. The system just depended on you never finding them. The parking fight is a microcosm of every fight against an institution that weaponizes process.” – Kerry Lutz

The ‘Anti-Cancer,’ Heart-Friendly Seed That Pharma Doesn’t Want You to Know About – “Flaxseed contains some of the most well-studied anti-cancer, cardioprotective compounds in all of nature. It costs pennies. It grows in the ground. And yet — it remains one of the best-kept secrets in modern medicine.” – Sayer Ji

NEWS

Trump & The Pentagon Will Collapse America Into Darkness – “Hegseth Firing 4 star Generals. There are varying reports regarding the number of generals and admirals Hegseth has fired, with numbers ranging between now 23 to 34. The reason is clear – Trump will only tolerate ‘Yes Men’ and Hegseth complies while depleting not just the highest ranks, but destabilizing war and troop strategies that will put thousands of lives in imminent danger. The idea of Marines on the ground is suicide. The idea that some two-bit former Fox News Host can fire a 4 star general is insanity! It is incredibly demeaning. The outcome should result in mutiny. It is like putting sailors on a ship with no captain or parachutists on a plane with no pilot.” – Helena Glass

Warrior USA – “This might be the most hilarious self-own ever: “Imagine an Iran that, instead of spending their wealth, billions of dollars, supporting terrorists or weapons, had spent that money helping the people of Iran,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said. “You’d have a much different country.” Yes, indeed, we’d have a much different America if the government wasn’t spending trillions of dollars buying weapons, supporting terrorists, and waging wars, but that’s not what corporate elites and wannabe warlords want.” – Bill Astore

Why the US Regime Pretends Israel’s Nuclear Weapons Don’t Exist – “It’s difficult to find much of anything we might call “good” coming out of the current US-Israel war against Iran. Yet, one positive development has been the fact that Israel’s deceitful practice of pretending it has no nuclear weapons program is now untenable. ” – Ryan McMaken

At The Mountains of Madness and Empire – “The Mad Emperor of the US Empire went on live television the other night and did the Dementia Dance. We saw this before during the four long, increasingly irrational and hysterical years of the Biden Administration. Trump just hasn’t deteriorated to slurring. Yet. We all know the drill. The President of the United States stands there and repeats one favorite trope after the other, in no particular order. All his old one-liners, jumbled up and spun in contradictory directions because the mind of the speaker is out to pasture, or maybe reminiscing about a rich pedophile’s hideaway. Donald Trump is not in charge. He’s a trapped and scared old man, unable to think as well as he could just a few years ago,The problem is, he is trapped by people who have the goods on him and they are even more insane than he. These people are called Zionists, and they are utterly mad, ” – Ohio Barbarian

(VIDEO) – “Vnessa Beeley, “Ryan Cristián (The Last American Vagabond ), and Myriam Charabaty – “We all sit down with BettBeat Media to add invaluable context to the genocidal project in West Asia and Persia, led by Washington and the Zionist cult, with British puppeteers in the shadows. We discuss the portrayal of the wars for survival in this region from Western outlets, the lack of cultural perspective and civilisational understanding with some of the conclusions being reached.” – BettBeat Media

Iran’s Oil Reserves & Foreign Aggression – “Much of world’s third largest reserve consists of Iranian Light crude, which is almost as valuable as West Texas Intermediate.” – John Leake

Netanyahu Boasts 70% Of Iran’s Steel Production Capacity Destroyed – “What has become clear is that Iran’s two largest producers – Khuzestan Steel Company and Mobarakeh Steel Company – have both been knocked offline after repeated US-Israeli strikes, with officials warning it could take months to restore operations, and that’s assuming this can be done even as the bombs still rain down. President Trump has meanwhile warned that Washington has yet to begin “destroying what’s left” of the Islamic Republic’s infrastructure. Major bridges have already been taken out, and even medical and pharmaceutical complexes, along with instances of deadly attacks on schools.” – Tyler Durden

How Likely Is It That The Gulf Kingdoms Diversify Their Export Routes After The War Ends? – “They now hate Iran for damaging their energy infrastructure and therefore don’t want to indefinitely pay it “petroyuan” as part of the “toll” system that the Islamic Republic is flirting with imposing.” – Andrew Korybko

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

What the US Embassy Attack in Baghdad Means for Preppers – “The Global Ripple Effect Why should a drone attack halfway around the world matter to your family’s preparedness plan? Because it proves that cheap, easily transportable, and concealable, mass-produced drones can successfully defeat multi-million-dollar defense systems. If state and state-funded actors can mass-produce $50,000 drones to overwhelm advanced security, they can target military bases, critical infrastructure, and shipping routes globally. This creates a chain reaction that directly impacts your daily life: When the seriousness of the world ramps up, the best response is calm, practical action. So, the focus should be on building resilient systems for your family. With that in mind, here is what you can do right now to prepare for these global shifts.” – Brian Duff

DIY 5-Gallon Bucket Gardening Stand – “While growing food in the ground is the traditional way to garden, it can be pretty frustrating. You have to deal with pests, disease, too much sun, too much rain, and sometimes even too much wind if a major storm blows through. Any of these can easily kill plants you’ve been nurturing for months. All of this is why bucket gardening has become so popular. You have more control over the soil, it’s easier to prevent pests and disease, and you can move them around if the weather isn’t ideal. To make them look even better and to use your space more efficiently, you can put them in a raised bucket garden stand.” – Heidi Hawthorn  – NICE STURDY STAND THAT ANYONE CAN BUILD, DEFINITELY BOOKMARKING OR PRINTING THIS ONE MYSELF!!!

11 Forgotten Methods to Preserve Food Without Power. #1 Will Surprise You! – “You probably have a freezer full of food right now. Maybe a chest freezer in the garage, a freeze dryer you’re proud of, and a pantry that took years to build. That setup is impressive, but it has one weakness that most preppers don’t like to think about: every single bit of it depends on the grid staying on. When the power goes out for a day, it’s an inconvenience. When it goes out for a week or longer, your stockpile starts a countdown you can’t stop.” – Olivia Brooks

VERSES FOR THE DAY

Matthew 27:57-61     When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus’ disciple:  He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.  And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,  And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.  And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

THE BIG PICTURE

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 

 

ECONOMIC NEWS

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

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

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

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

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

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

 

 

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

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

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

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

LYRIC FOR THE WEEK  (USED BEFORE)

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

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

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

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

( Mideast Vacation by Neil Young )

THE BIG PICTURE

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Meningitis B Vaccine Contains Chimeric Bioengineered Bacterial Proteins and Aluminum—96% Adverse Reaction Rate, 29% Experience Severe Reaction – “Primary source documents show that the MenB vaccine: Contains bioengineered bacterial proteins, including chimeric (fusion) antigens Includes aluminum that distributes and persists in the body .” – Jon Fleetwood

Beware of AI Slop (and not so Slop) Videos targeting your susceptible Brain Vector – “Right now, cute baby and animal videos are Exhibit A of the Mind Experiment” – Sage Hana

 

 

 

 

NEWS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Sohmor, Lebanon: A Legacy of Persecution and Resistance, Now under Sustained Zionist Bombardment – “Sohmor is a town in West Bekaa that has a history of horrific colonial persecution, yet has survived, and continues to resist the Zionist ethnic cleansing agenda in Lebanon.” – Vanessa Beeley

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

THE BIG PICTURE

The narrative bombs. More adventures in “why you should hate the media” – “Over the weekend, a small group of protesters seemingly led by Jake Lang was at gracie mansion (home of the NYC mayor). Thegroup was modest in size (12-20 based on reports) and the counter protesters who opposed this were considerably more numerous (100-125) Jake and co were protesting “Islamification” of New York, The chant was seemingly “stop the Islamic takeover of NYC.” The counter protesters countered with “run the Nazis out of New York” etc and this was a fairly predictable and basically peacful affair. But then a funny thing happened (not the humorous kind of funny) and the character of the situation changed. it was captured on clear, unmistakable video (a video which has been oddly suppressed by most media outlets) so if you have not seen it, here it is. watch for yourself. but the truth is not obscure here. it’s not debatable, uncertain, or yet to be determined. bombs made from an ISIS terrorist manual were thrown at anti-Islamic protesters by Islamic radicals shouting “Allahu Ackbar” and hoping to kill and injure hundreds. The perps have said so in their own words. This was a religious attack of Islamic radicals against those they deemed enemies of their faith. again, they said so themselves. So let’s not mince words: large swathes of the media are lying about this with great deliberation and intent. they are not looking to illuminate but to occlude.” – El Gato Malo

CNN Does Propaganda For ‘ISIS-Inspired’ Gracie Mansion Attackers, Then Deletes Tweet – “CNN attempted to reframe a failed ISIS-inspired bombing plot to create sympathy for the bombers. ” – Tyler Durden

This Is F**king Demonic (VIDEO) – “Zara Larsson, whose fan base is mainly  comprised of young white women in their  early 20s, responded to a fan who posted footage taken at one of her concerts, in which the fan wrote, “I didn’t know I  was pregnant here, but at least my baby got to hear Midnight Sun before I aborted it.” By saying, “I killed the performance, and you killed it after the performance, purr.” Absolutely demonic. But it gets worse. Responding to the controversy Larsson  only doubled down, clarifying that yes, she does find terminating babies inside the womb incredibly funny.” – Paul Joseph Watson  – THIS WOMAN IS SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meet The Ellisons: Zionists, Technocrats, Moguls (VIDEO) – “Larry Ellison, the founder of tech giant Oracle, and his son, David, the CEO of Paramount, are about to add “media moguls” to their list of credentials alongside AI-shilling, surveillance-selling technocrats and general deep state psychos.” – The Corbett Report

After Trump’s War, the US Military Won’t Be Invited Back – “The US took billions of military equipment and investment losses last week, most of which were apparently “unexpected” by Pentagon planners. Those losses continue, and they are being compounded by a growing and shared realization among our Arab allies in the Gulf that the US government never intended to defend them. When we consider US “wars,” we usually start from an incorrect assumption. The US has engaged in one long continuous war since 1947 with the establishment of the CIA and the national security state – and the US has pursued continuous debasement of the US dollar since 1971. This is why most observers were not celebrating the end of 20 years in Afghanistan, because overnight those resources – and profits – seamlessly shifted to Ukraine, and from Ukraine, to Venezuela, and to Iran, with the same profiteers of the continuous war always well rewarded.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

The Energy Hypocrisy Exposed by the Iran Crisis – “Why the “solution” to oil shocks would make America more dependent on its adversaries” – Dr. Matthew Wielicki  – GOOD READ FROM MATTHEW!!!!

THEY WANT YOU DEAD: Johns Hopkins Hospital Owns The Mebendazole Polymorph Patent for The TREATMENT AND PREVENTION OF TUMORS – “The patent was actually filed on February 8th, 2016, and it is important to appreciate that Johns Hopkins and all of the other PSYOP-19 players were working on this gain-of-function plandemic since the 1990s, or why Operation Warp Speed was anything but warp speed; in other words, they knew that they were going to unleash a turbo cancer scourge at some point in the future, which is why they started work on locking up patents for inexpensive and easily accessible cancer treatments.” – 2nd Smartest Guy in the World

Exposed: A network of WHO Collaboration Centres operating within nations controls public health – “Lucinda van Buuren, a registered nurse and founder of World Council for Health Australia, has uncovered a network of WHO Collaborating Centres operating in Australia, which are institutions designated by the WHO to advance its mandates and agendas.

News Blackout? – “Are you having a hard time finding out how the war Trump decided to launch on behalf of “Israel” – which hijacked that biblical term to drape itself in sympathy for the people of the Bible, who are not the same people as the people running the state of “Israel” – is going? As a veteran of “COVID” – another disingenuous term – I have never encountered the degree of silent suppression of news – about the truth, I mean – as is being exerted to suppress news (the truth) about how this war is actually going. For “Israel” and its rabid pit bull, the United States, I mean. There is almost nothing – anywhere – about the damage “Israel” has experienced (I won’t use the word suffered, because that implies sympathy for that state, of which I have none because I have no sympathy for foreign states that control the United States and drag the United States and its people into a war of choice on behalf of themselves) and also the damage done to American bases and so on in that part of the world.” – Eric Peters

Trump Surrenders??? – “Is it TACO time? President Trump sounds like he is surrendering, following a phone call with Putin, who warned the war with Iran feels like “the end of the world is upon us.” ” – David Haggith

When the Mask Slips Trump, Hegseth, and Graham reveal their true vicious colors. – “President Trump used to crack irreverent jokes about his silly, virtue-signaling political opponents at home. Now he’s making cruel and vulgar jokes about killing at least 87 young sailors on the IRIS Dena Frigate, which had just participated in the MILAN exercise — India’s flagship biennial multilateral naval drill “to foster maritime cooperation among participating nations” — and was 2,000 miles from the Persian Gulf when it was sunk by a US Navy submarine.” – John Leake

There are only two forces operating in world foreign policy today: the neoconservative doctrine of US hegemony and Israel’s agenda of Greater Israel – “Are Israel and Netanyahu’s American puppet Donald Trump preparing the world for the Anti-Christ?” – Paul Craig Roberts

What If Iran Says No? – “Is an end to fighting currently possible? Rumors persist that the Trump administration is actively seeking an off-ramp to the escalating conflict with Iran. The prevailing assumption within certain circles of the White House is that Tehran, having sustained serious damage from recent military strikes, would welcome a cessation of hostilities. This calculation, however, rests on a dangerous misreading of Iranian resolve, historical grievance, and strategic necessity. What if Iran says no?” – Ashes of Pompeii

Washington’s Latest Big Lie: Iran’s 47-Years War On America – “At the center of the White House justification for launching still another Forever War stands the most hideous neocon lie yet. And it’s one that blatantly betrays every campaign promise the Donald ever made on the subject.” – David Stockman

White House Lies – Iran War, Strait of Hormuz, Oil Spikes & NUKES – “Iran says the Strait is on fire due to Israel and Trump bombing their oil refineries. The Strait is closed and it isn’t just oil traffic getting hit, but every cargo vessel large and small. Alexandr Dugin predicts Saudi’s and the entire Middle East will simply stop production within a week until the War has ended. But the UK is facing a 2 days supply before their coffers are empty. Gas lines are reminiscent of the Carter days. While the US Strategic Reserve is at 65% given Trump did not cap it before sending troops into War – his failure to do so is indicative of his inept strategy. Too busy with his “Ballroom”.” – Helena Glass

The End Of The Islamic Republic: What Next? – “The Fog Of War Leaves Many Questions Still Unanswered” – Peter Nayland Kust

Streets aflame and acid rain: Israeli strikes on Iranian fuel depots compared to chemical warfare – “The attempt to topple the government in Tehran is pushing the Middle East into an increasingly deadly spiral of destruction” -RT

Trump will either escalate Iran war further by sending in ground troops or walk away and declare a fake victory – “You can’t do a regime change with air power alone, yet sending large numbers of ground troops could result in ‘bloodbath’. Yet, on day 10, Trump hints he might just declare victory and walk away. Some Americans are starting to wise up and figure it out: The most effective way of predicting what is coming next under the current administration of President Donald J. Trump is to listen to what he says and expect the opposite to take place. Trump said he would be the “Peace President.” He has unleashed more war, death and economic destruction than the world has seen in decades, and it’s likely only going to get worse. He’s just gotten started. So it’s time for a hard dose of reality to refute the nonstop lies coming out of this administration.” – Leo Hohmann

Lavrov Articulated Russia’s Official Position Towards The Third Gulf War – “Many mistakenly believe that Russia is allied with Iran against the Gulf Kingdoms and Israel, but the reality is that it’s always carefully balanced between them, though that doesn’t mean that Russia won’t call out what it considers to be Israeli aggression against Iran and Arab hypocrisy.” – Andrew Korybko

ECONOMIC NEWS

Will Iran Conflict Trigger Warflation in America? – “US consumers can’t seem to catch a break.” – Andrew Moran

The Iran War Just Lit the Fuse on America’s Next Inflation Crisis – “The U.S. is in very serious danger of igniting another inflationary storm. Gurus and pundits like to point to the decline in official inflation data points like the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as indicating that inflation has been tamed in the U.S. What these individuals fail to tell you is that the ONLY data in the CPI that is actually falling is energy prices (well that and used cars). See for yourself. Yes, every other component is still rising in value albeit at a slower pace. The DE-flation story being pushed by the media is largely an energy story. The other main components continue to rise. In this context, the U.S. is extremely vulnerable to another inflationary storm if energy prices stop falling. Well, guess what the War in Iran is doing?” – Graham Summers, MBA

Gasoline Prices Spike, Now up 25% since January, Diesel Prices 40%, Heating up Inflation – “California is back over $5. Prices in Texas jumped by 25% month to month, to over $3.23.” – Wolf Richter

We’re Entering The “Death Spiral” Phase Of Currency Collapse (VIDEO) with John Rubino – “History repeats. And we’ve seen time and time again over the ages how monetary systems collapse. Monetary analyst John Rubino thinks we’re now entering the “death spiral” phase of the world’s major fiat currencies, due to the immense amount of debt obligations nations are now burdened with. What comes next?” – Adam Taggart | Thoughtful Money®

Existing Home Sales Stagnant for Over Three Years Despite Falling Mortgage Rates – “Home prices are still too unaffordable.” – Mish

Getting Gold Wrong: Gold And Silver Price Analysis – “The initial reaction to the U.S war on Iran has been to sell treasuries and buy the dollar in a market expectation that higher crude oil prices will bring inflation and higher interest rates from the Federal Reserve. This analysis is dead wrong. But “the market” has adopted this thinking over the past week, and precious metal prices have been hammered. Is the downward price pressure justified? Only if you see the world in a vacuum—like a pre-programmed HFT trading algorithm. If you’re an actual thinking human being, you might see it differently. That’s not to say there won’t be a short-term inflationary impact. There almost certainly will! However, no one should be under any illusion that long-term U.S. fiscal and monetary policy has changed.” – Craig Hemke

Is Silver About to Give Its Biggest Signal Yet? – Kerry Lutz

The Real Threat Is Artificial Credit, Not Artificial Intelligence – “Artificial intelligence is likely to become the most transformative technology in history, but under the auspices of a money-printing counterfeiter such as the Federal Reserve it’s certain to create massive economic problems. The real threat is artificial credit, not artificial intelligence. People rightfully fear losing their jobs. What actually threatens workers, though, is not automation but monetary distortion. When credit expansion drives speculative booms, capital is misdirected into unsustainable ventures. When the correction arrives, workers suffer the consequences of decisions made far above them. And they tend to direct their anger at the market, rather than the politically-influenced decision makers. Ron Paul was right. We need to end the Fed and end the property rights violations of fractional reserve banking.” – George Ford Smith

I’m not talking about your credit card number or your social security number. I’m talking about the things that make you easy to locate for anyone who wants to find you. I’m talking about the things that make it easy to strike up a “common ground” conversation, like the activities your child is involved in or your political beliefs or even your favorite sports team. Many of us are open books, and that isn’t a very safe way to live, especially when you get into the mindset of a predator.” – Daisy Luther  – GOOD ONE FROM DAISY ON SOMETHING YOU DON’T NORMALLY THINK ABOUT!!!!

This is not a campfire trick. It is a core preparedness skill.” – Ask A Prepper Staff

How Far Can Your Radio Really Reach? Realistic Range Expectations for Canadian Preppers – “When people buy handheld radios, the packaging often promises impressive range claims: “Up to 35 miles!” or “50 km range!” Anyone who has actually used these radios in the real world quickly discovers those numbers are marketing fiction. For Canadian preppers, understanding realistic radio range is critical. If you are building a family communication plan, coordinating with neighbours, or maintaining contact with a retreat location, you need to know what will actually work in the forests, hills, and weather conditions typical across much of Canada.” – denob  – AND NOT JUST FOR CANADA, FOR ANY WHERE ACTUALLY!!!

THE BIG PICTURE

Ante Bellum Casus Belli Blues – “The ghost of Cyrus Scofield bombs for a rapture led by midwit Shabbos heretics. ” – The Good Citizen  – ANOTHER GREAT READ FROM THE CITIZEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Iran War Exposes the Farce of American “Representative Democracy” – “The Trump administration has unilaterally—without any Congressional debate or vote, of course—forced Americans into yet another war. This time, the war is a large-scale military campaign against Iran. Was there any groundswell of public support for this war? Did the Congress vote to spend more American tax dollars on another war? Apparently not. According to a March 1 poll from Reuters, only 27 percent of Americans polled said they support the US’s new war on Iran. Needless to say, few Americans have been calling their representatives in Congress asking for yet another Middle Eastern war. So, why is the US now at war with Iran? Not even the administration appears to know for sure. ” – Ryan McMaken

What Was Epstein REALLY Up To? Eugenics, Transhumanism & ‘Directed Evolution’ with ( VIDEO) – “Sex trafficking and pedophilia were key elements of Epstein’s world, but eugenics, creating “designer babies,” transhumanism, and a diabolical scientific agenda lurked below the surface.” – Alex Newman

Federal Bill Would Ban Geoengineering, Aerosol Injection, and Weather Modification Nationwide—Repeals Any Existing Federal Authority – “Legislation would criminalize atmospheric dispersal of chemicals or biological agents intended to alter weather or climate and prohibit federally funded geoengineering research.” – Jon Fleetwood  – ALL A BIG SHOW, THEY ARE NOT GOING TO BRING ANY CHARGES AGAINT THEMSELVES AS THE GOVERNMENT IS THE ONE DOING ALL THIS. PROBABLY THE MILITARY, IN MOST CASES, WHO ARE TESTING THE WEAPONIZATION OF BIOLOGICALS AND WEATHER MODIFICATION AS A FORM OF WEAPONIZATION AS WELL. CREATE A STORM TO WIPE OUT A PART OF AN ENEMY COUNTRY OR AN OPPOSING ARMY, NO PROBLEM!!!!!!!!

Catherine Austin Fitts: ‘The goal is to depopulate and control the remnant’ – “Wars are fought over shipping routes and resources, not to liberate any oppressed people group.” – Leo Hohmann

Epstein Had a File. Gates Signed a Release. Congress Wants Answers. – “The Complete Federal Court Record — and the Questions Gates Must Answer Under Oath on May 19, 2026” – Sayer Ji

USDA Approves First-Ever Vaccine For Honeybees – ‘The vaccine is administered by mixing it into queen feed which is consumed by worker bees. It is is incorporated into the royal jelly by the worker bees, who then feed it to the queen. Great, just great… So, USDA, where’s the long term data and trials? Any at all? What happens to the bees overtime? What happens to functionality of the colony? What is their approximate lifecycle post-vaccination? How and does this affect the honey/nectar making process? Will the vaccine ingredients bleed into the honey, and if so by how much? Will the pollination process be affected?” – The WinePress.

 

 

NEWS

Trump’s Unjust and Unconstitutional War – “Over the past weekend, some apologists for President Donald Trump’s recently ordered attacks on Iran argued that because Trump’s plans call for a quick strike, the attacks do not constitute a war. George Orwell is vindicated yet again. These apologists believe that calling a war something else means it is not a war, and so moral and constitutional justifications are unnecessary. No rational observer looking at 2,000-pound bombs being dropped on military targets and thousands of missiles being fired indiscriminately at both civilians and military personnel in Iran can conclude that these events constitute anything but a war. Even the 1973 War Powers Resolution, which requires reporting to the Congress within 48 hours of the onset of presidentially initiated military hostilities, contemplates the use of the military when a threat to the U.S. is imminent. This raises two issues. First, the administration has not articulated with credibility any imminent threat. Second, the statute requires that the president report in writing the reasons for war to the full Congress so it can approve or disapprove. Trump sent a political diatribe to Congress with no articulation of immediacy, but he did so only after he had his secretary of state report in secret on immediacy to the Gang of Eight — the congressional and intelligence committees’ leadership from both parties. But the Gang of Eight is not the Congress. And because these reports were made in secret, the eight recipients of them cannot inform their congressional colleagues or the media or their constituents. What kind of representative government is that? What did the secretary of state tell these eight members of Congress?” – Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

Donald Trump’s Flagrant War Of Aggression Against Iran Is An Impeachable Offense – “No U.S. president has the authority to take America to war with another nation without a Declaration of War from Congress. That means Trump’s war with Iran is exactly that: It is Donald Trump’s war—illegally using the U.S. military for his own purposes—or should I say, for Israel’s purposes. The man who promised the American people that he would stop America’s “stupid” (Trump’s word) perpetual regime-change wars lied to us. He knew he was lying when he said it, because he knew that his entire presidential campaign was sponsored by the Epstein/Zionist/Billionaire class epitomized by Mossad asset Miriam Adelson. Most U.S. presidents, just as most of the U.S. Congress, are overly influenced and manipulated by the State of Israel, thanks to the Zionist billionaire donors using the Israeli lobby group AIPAC (and scores of groups just like it) as a conduit of unlimited cash with which to bribe these criminals—called politicians. But, without a doubt, Donald Trump is far and away the most beholden and most controlled U.S. president EVER.” – Chuck Baldwin

Trump Wants Role in Picking Iran’s Next Leader. Questions Abound – “OK, how is this supposed to work?” – Mish

Kristi Noem ousted from Homeland Security post amid recent turmoil – “Trump reportedly furious with Noem’s performance in congressional hearings this week over controversial ad contract. President Donald Trump announced his he will nominate Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., to replace her on Truth Social. Noem, 54, will likely be at least temporarily replaced by Deputy Secretary Troy Edgar, a Navy veteran and former mayor of Los Alamitos, California, in the line of succession for the agency.” – Charles Creitz

Tariff Refund Delays Could Cost Taxpayers $700 Million a Month – Scott Lincicome, Nathan Miller, and Alfredo Carrillo Obregon

Sen. Tim Sheehy Breaks Uniformed Marine’s Hand After Marine Says ‘No One Wants to Fight for Israel’ (VIDEO) – The Liberty Daily

Always Faithful – “U.S. Marine Brian McGinnis Speaks Out Against Israel First (aka ZOG) and get’s his hand broke by Senator Sheehy of Montana. True Patriotism is NEVER Popular or Easy Folks. I am aware that Mr. McGinnis is running for a North Carolina Senate Seat as a Green Party Candidate. I DO NOT support the Green Party in any form or fashion. What I do support is this Marine’s stance on rejecting Trump’s warmongering neo-con agenda of ISRAEL FIRST when Trump clearly campaigned on “AMERICA FIRST” and “NO NEW WARS.”” – The Tactical Hermit

US Set to Escalate War into Ground Phase with Kurdish Vanguard – “The next phase of the Israeli-American plan for Iran has been revealed. With multiple Trump administration mentions of ‘boots on the ground’, we now see a plan forming for the initiation of sectarian and separatist uprisings to further create turmoil in Iran.” – Simplicius

The Third Gulf War Will Greatly Expand If Trump Plays The Kurdish Card – “If Turkiye launches a military intervention in Iran along the lines of its earlier ones in Iraq and Syria to stop what it considers to be Kurdish terrorists, then its Azerbaijani ally might make a move on what it considers to be “South Azerbaijan”, and then the Gulf Arabs and Pakistan might be emboldened to join the fray too.” – Andrew Korybko

US Quietly Launches Military Operations Against ‘Narco-Terrorists’ In Ecuador Amidst Iran War – “”Together, we are taking decisive action to confront narco-terrorists who have long inflicted terror, violence, and corruption on citizens throughout the hemisphere,” SOUTHCOM said.” – The WinePress

I don’t know another way to put this to people. How they can’t see it for what it actually is beyond me. Okay.  this in no way, shape, or form is going to benefit anyone. We’ve been hearing about I’m laughing because it’s so pathetic. I think it’s 1979. I think it was 79. Maybe you can clarify. You straighten me out on that one. You know, Iran was like, I don’t know, weeks away from a weapon. 1979. And here we are here. and you know hearing the same story 2026. .

ADP Reports Job Growth—Can The Data Be Trusted? Are This Month’s Downward Revisions “Normal”?” – Peter Nayland Kust

Silver Lights Fuse of Derivatives Time Bomb – Bill Holter Silver Lights Fuse of Derivatives Time Bomb (VIDEO) with Bill Holter – ” The math is scary and simple, and Holter breaks it down, “The registered inventory at COMEX in silver is 86 million ounces. On the second day of March, there are already 52 million ounces of silver standing for delivery. That leaves 30 million to 35 million ounces unspoken for. . .. This looks dicey. If they have 52 million ounces standing for delivery now, where is it going to be at the end of the month? If silver fails to deliver, then what you are going to have in the gold market is buyers stepping up that normally would not even buy and ask for delivery. . .. The bottom line is if silver fails to deliver, gold will fail to deliver in 24 hours. Once that happens, then confidence breaks. . .. You are looking at two quadrillion dollars in derivatives in a global economy with $350 trillion in debt with an underlying $100 trillion annual GDP. The math does not work.” – Greg Hunter

China Construction Bank Lifts 1 oz Silver Panda Price to $137 on Surging Retail Demand – “COMEX sets the price—but it’s physical buyers who define reality. The more silver China drains from the market, the harder it becomes for Western exchanges to maintain credibility between “paper silver” supply and actual metal availability.” – The Silver Academy  – THAT’S ABOUT $50 HIGHER THAN WHAT PHYSICAL OUNCES ARE GOING FOR IN THE U.S. MARKET. THAT SHOULD SHOW YOU HOW MUCH THEY HAVE MANIPULATED THE COMEX  “PAPER”MARKET SO BIG BUYERS LIKE JP MORGAN CAN GET PHYSICAL ON THE CHEAP WHILE SUPPRESSING THE TRUE VALUE TO THE NORMAL INVESTOR. BUT, FOR HOW MUCH LONGER. THEY ARE RUNNING OUT OF SILVER. NOT AN ADVISOR, BUT IT MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA TO STACK A FEW OUNCES OR MORE OF SILVER!!!!!!!!!!

Information Overload in a Crisis: Why Preppers Need Trusted Information Channels – “In the early hours of a crisis, information becomes as valuable as food or fuel. Unfortunately, modern emergencies come with a new problem: too much information, much of it unreliable. During major weather events, civil unrest, or infrastructure disruptions, news spreads rapidly across social media, messaging apps, and online news feeds. Some of it is accurate. Much of it is speculation, misinterpretation, or outright misinformation. For preppers, the goal isn’t simply gathering information—it’s filtering it effectively.” – denob

Poe’s law comes into full flower – “And why the future may be local” – El Gato Malo  -EXCELLENT ARTICLE ON AI AND WHY IT IS DANGEROUS, IN MY OPINION!!!!

The Bible Called Them the ‘Synagogue of Satan’ and History Shows They’re Still Running the World – “Inside the Theory That Elite Families Aren’t Quite ‘Human’… The hashtag #nephilimbloodlines has accumulated over 12.9 million views on TikTok. The theory claims that thirteen families control the world through bloodlines traced back to Genesis 6, to the Nephilim, the offspring of angels who bred with humans before the flood. Comment sections fill with people sharing RH-negative blood test results as proof of hybrid ancestry. The names appear again and again: Rothschild, Rockefeller, Windsor, the Merovingian dynasties stretching back 1,500 years.” – 🐺The Wise Wolf

Europe was humanity’s place or origin – “Evidence. The longstanding “Out of Africa” theory has dominated discussions on human evolution for decades, positing that modern humans and their ancestors first emerged on the African continent before spreading across the globe. However, recent fossil discoveries and reevaluations of ancient remains are painting a different picture—one where Europe plays a central role in the story of human origins.” – Kenn Gividen

Candace Owens and the Internet Brainrot Industry – “This happens with all major shootings, and with many other events besides. It is literally impossible for any high-profile personality to be shot without widespread scepticism that this “lone gunman” could have pulled off the crime and insistence that his deed must have been the fruit of some shadowy, sophisticated cabal. What is more, the various theories in this genre enjoy popularity with heavily overlapping audiences. Many people appear to believe that shooters working alone are just not a thing and that all major assassinations reflect conspiratorial plans.” – eugyppius – GOOD POINTS HERE FROM EUGYPPIUS, HOWEVER, I STILL THINK A PERSON NEEDS TO LOOK AT ALL ANGLES, EVEN THE PSYOP ONES WHEN TRYING TO GET TO THE TRUTH, THAT’S WHY I WILL LINK VARYING OPINIONS AND LET THE READER FORMULATE THEIR OWN OPINION!!!

All the World’s a Hoax: Crisis Actors ‘R Us – “Who writes these scripts? We have just seen another of these seemingly endless mass casualty events. This one happened at Bondi Beach, Australia. These events occur so fast and furiously that they are forgotten even more quickly than other, non-mass casualty widely reported events. Some people actually still believe that they are real, organic incidents. Then, just when we were trying to process this latest assault on the world’s most prominent community of victims, a story right out of the pages of the classic Kenneth Anger book Hollywood Babylon broke. Prominent director Rob Reiner, still best known as the Meathead on the TV series All in the Family, was found stabbed to death, along with his wife, in their home. But you can be certain that we won’t be told the entire truth about the murder of Rob Reiner any more than we’ll be told the truth about the Bondi Beach incident. Hollywood has a bigger Body Count than perhaps even the political world” – Donald Jeffries

The Rise of the Kosher Mafia [Part 1] – “Out of the 2.3% of the United States that are Jewish, it is reported that only 10-20% of Jewish families practice kosher laws.

NEWS

All Government Is Dictatorial Because All Government Is Totalitarian – “I am not saying that every country that has a government (all countries) is a pure dictatorship, as that would indicate that one man (a dictator) had absolute power over each country. What I am attempting to describe is that all government is dictatorial, in that regardless of the political structure, whether monarchy, socialist, communist, fascist, democratic, or other, the rule under any government is isolated among a very few, (including democracy/republic) which is in most cases likely an oligarchical rule, but one in which rule by these few is based on a single agreed upon and arranged objective, or single ideological agenda. In essence, since government is strictly autocratic by its very nature, and totalitarian in its method, it has to be dictatorial in its mind-set. So why do so many continue to laud, worship, and support government and rule? ” – Gary D. Barnett

Pirates Of The Caribbean – “The maniacal, Machiavellian, murderous monstrosities of the Trump White House fall upon the world like a monsoon. Small private boats continue to be bombed by Pete Hegseth and the new Department of War Crimes.

And now, in an act of brazen piracy, Trump seizes a Venezuelan oil tanker in international waters.” – Chuck Baldwin

Trump Announces Full Naval Blockade of Venezuela’s “Sanctioned” Oil Exports – “It appears the Trump administration is finally preparing to escalate the Venezuelan conflict once and for all, after Trump himself had told reporters that ‘ground strikes’ would begin ‘soon’ on Venezuelan soil. Trump then jumped the shark with his announcement of a full-scale naval blockade of Venezuela’s oil tankers in the most pompous way befitting his usual deportment:’ – Simplicius  – LINKED ABOUT THIS YESTERDAY AS WELL. AS USUAL, SIMPLICIOUS GOES INTO DETAIL!!!

Yes, It’s About the Oil – “Good Old-Fashioned War for Resources and Profit” – Bill Astore

Trump Gave A Speech To Start The Mid-Term Elections – “Trump Means To Dominate The 2026 Election Cycle. Will He Succeed? Was it an effective speech? Did President Trump accomplish what he hoped to achieve? People will have to make up their minds about such questions on their own. Corporate media will in due course “fact check” the speech, and engage in a myriad of ways to belittle and demean the address. How effective they will be in that regard remains to be seen. I encourage everyone to read Trump’s words for themselves. Listen to what he had to say. Gauge whether he spoke fairly or no, whether he was honest or duplicitous.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Dan Bongino Makes a Big Decision About His Future – “The FBI deputy director put the rumors to rest with a short social media post.” – Graham J Noble

NY Times Declares War on Homeschooling & Parental Rights – “Amid an escalating global assault on home education & parental rights, the “newspaper of record” just published a piece demanding draconian government control & oversight of homeschooling nationwide.” – Alex Newman -READ BILL’S ARTICLE BELOW AND YOU CAN SEE WHY PEOPLE WANT TO HOMESCHOOL AND ALSO THEY ARE SICK OF THE GOVERNMENT CONTROL. ALL OF THIS IS ACTUALLY PART OF THE “BIG PICTURE” AS WELL!!!!

The Project to “Dumb Down” America … Worked – “… An initiative that qualifies as another “Key to the Operation” … This is because the “masses” – if they suddenly became enlightened and engaged – would pose the only real threat to the Powers that Be. Said differently, if hundreds of millions of adults remain oblivious to toxic initiatives, “We the People” are never going to rise up and demand real change, drain the swamp … or go to the garage, grab our pitchforks and march with neighbors to the U.S. Capitol or Wall Street. While it took many decades and required a march through several core institutions, Project Dumb Down America clearly was a spectacular success for the ruling classes.” – Bill Rice Jr.

EU Desperate to Find a Way to Use Frozen Russian Assets to Fund Ukraine – “Volodymyr Zelenskyy is huddled with European Leaders at the European Council meeting in Brussels. The key effort by the assembly is how to use frozen Russian assets to give money to Ukraine. The EU itself does not want to lend Ukraine money directly because people within each nation of the EU assembly do not support giving Ukraine more money. The issue reflects a political disconnect where the EU leaders want to give money that the EU citizens do not support giving.” – Sundance

Proof That the Nazis Were Socialists – “Joseph Goebbels, the chief propagandist for the Nazi Party, loved socialism. And his own speeches prove it.” – Jon Miltimore

EU Will Look ‘Weak’ If It Doesn’t Confiscate Russian Funds, Zelensky Tells Crunch Summit – Tyler Durden

Five Reasons Why The Newly Declared Ethiopian-Indian Strategic Partnership Is So Important – “The centrality of shared digital- and AI-driven development therein is arguably the most significant feature of their new relationship, which is the means through which India plans to compete with China in a friendly way for hearts, minds, and markets across the Global South.” – Andrew Korybko

ECONOMIC NEWS

The Trump Sounds and Plays a Brazen Tune Signifying Nothing – “…while a 4-year high in the unemployment rate doesn’t sound like much, remember that takes us back to the greatest unemployment period in US history—the time when we were still coming out of the nationwide, government-forced Covid lockdowns. We will be hard pressed to ever beat the high bars set in those years for the unemployment rate. If we skip the huge anomaly in employment caused by the Covid lockdowns, then our overall unemployment rate of 4.6% takes us back to the unemployment level at the start of 2017. ” – David Haggith

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

Simple Preparedness for Beginners: Start Here – “Emergency Prepping is easier than you think! This guide is for people starting from zero. You don’t need special skills, a big budget, or to change your lifestyle. You just need a few basics that match how you already live. Start With These Three Things Today If you do nothing else, do this: Fill a gallon jug with water for each person in your home Put a working flashlight somewhere you can find it in the dark Buy extra cans or jars of food you already eat That’s it. You’ve started.” – Jason Salyer

How to Plan a Bigger, Better Vegetable Garden – “Before you so much as lift a rake, considering what you’re going to grow, where you’re going to grow it, and when you’re going to sow or plant it will help you to get the most from your garden. Spending time planning before you start sowing helps you to maximize your harvests.” – Benedict Vanheems

Survive Balkanization and Collapse with a Dual System – “Balkanization is the fragmentation of a larger region or state into smaller regions or states, which may be hostile or uncooperative with one another. Now, that duality of the system means that the regular system is not working for you, so there is a “parallel” system to the existing one where you can “swim” and survive. That means you will have to become a master of networking. Everywhere, you will have a connection.” – Selco Begovic

Communications Under Winter Stress: Staying Informed When the Lines Go Quiet – “Canadian winters have a consistent track record of exposing weaknesses in modern communications. Heavy snow, ice storms, high winds, and prolonged cold routinely interrupt power, damage infrastructure, and overwhelm cellular networks. When that happens, phones stop working, internet access disappears, and even local news becomes difficult to reach.” – denob

Winter Camping Dangers: What Actually Kills People in Cold Weather – “Here’s the lie that gets people killed: “Cold weather is dangerous, but I’m experienced.” That mindset is where most winter disasters start. The truth is ugly and winter camping dangers don’t usually pick off first-timers first. They nail confident intermediates. The folks who’ve slept outside in October, done a couple snowy weekends, and now think they’ve got winter “handled.”” – Bob Rodgers

What Chair are You in? – “Almost all Americans are in one of these three chairs… In Chair One, we have faith in ourselves In Chair Two, we do not know who or what to have faith in In Chair Three, we have faith in Jesus Christ Which chair are you in today? How can we come to trust in God more fully? By getting to know Him!” – Jim McCraigh

The Pandemic Revealed the Most Cowardly Society of All Time – “In terms of importance, the Covid-19 pandemic was the biggest event in human history since World War II. Since that time, nothing has caused as much fear across the entire planet as what began in 2020.” – Filipe Rafaeli

The Evidence is Clear: Masks Don’t Do Anything. – “We’re being hit with the “Super Flu” (allegedly), and that means everyone wants us to wear masks again. We went over this (a lot) in 2020. Then we went over it again in 2023. Masks don’t work, they never worked, and – prior to 2020 – the academic literature was very clear on this.” – Kit Knightly

WHO Pushes Global Plan to Normalize Trackable ‘Health’ Devices and AI Monitoring for Every Citizen on Earth – Frank Bergman

Where It All Began: The Hidden Origin of One Health and the Global System Now Ensnaring Canada – “A Quiet Theory That Became a Global Operating System. By 2016, One Health had expanded into: land use wildlife management food production agriculture climate energy Indigenous co-governance It quietly became the operating logic for the UN’s Agenda 2030.” – Connie Shields

DARK POLICIES: Under Governor Pritzker, Illinois Is the Newest US State To Implement Assisted Suicide – “Illinois is going down yet another dark path. The democratic government that President Donald J. Trump calls a ‘fat slob’ leads a government with a perpetual commitment to death – be it in abortion, be it by freeing cold-blooded killers in the streets of his violent state, be it in his new initiative with assisted suicide policies. Sure enough, as is the case anywhere, the policies are first presented as ‘only for special circumstances’, only to be quickly escalated, in the context that the safeguards are not even enforced.” – Paul Serran   – IS ILLINOIS THE NEW CANADA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Techno-Fascism: Trump Signs Executive Order That Overrides State Regulations For AI, Federal Government And Tech Companies Can Do Whatever They Want With Impunity – The WinePress

Trump’s FCC Seeks to Strip Even More Local Control Over 5G Rollout – “Of the fifteen bills advanced by the committee, H.R. 2289 is considered the most concerning, according to Environmental Health Sciences (EHS), a nonpartisan, nonprofit news and science organization.EHS argues that the bill would force local governments to approve cell towers and wireless modifications or expansions with inadequate review, despite known health, environmental, and safety risks. ” – Derrick Broze

What really happens when income is guaranteed (VIDEO) – “Dr. David Bell explains the devastation he saw in communities living on guaranteed income and why the same model is quietly being imported into the West.. For years, the World Economic Forum and United Nations have advocated for a simple idea: The future will be automated, frictionless, and convenient — and if work dries up, don’t worry. We’ll just pay everyone a basic income. It’s a feel-good sales pitch, but the reality is far from happy. What happens to a society when survival is guaranteed but purpose disappears? What happens when the paycheck comes only if you behave?” – Collapse Life

Marcus Allen and Scott Henderson on the Apollo Moon Missions: Part 1 (VIDEO) – “Examining the evidence – with assistance from Robert Wagner. One of the truly great disappointments of my adult life was discovering, after I conducted my own investigative efforts, that the Apollo moon missions I so revered as a teenager and beyond, were — to put it bluntly — faked.” – New Zealand Doc

NEWS

A Genocide of the Willing – “Exposing the myth of democracy. This is shocking to those who have been able to live in a bubble, away from the realities faced every day by others. For the greater share, though, it is a mere confirmation of an already understood reality. But it is those who can be shocked by that truth that must be shocked, so they can understand the future as it unfolds, rather than as if standing in a river, unknowing the source of their saturation. The EU now faces, an exposure of its tyrannical policies thinly disguised as the will of the people. Despite the fact that none of the leaders in the EU were voted into office by the populations of those they rule over, they claim some vague connection with democracy. It’s a worldwide drift to totalitarianism that’s in the works here and many support it, as stupid as that sounds. ” – T.L. Davis

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Flexes of Futility – “Practically begging Venezuela to kill American pilots to provide a remotely plausible cassus belli, two Navy F/A-18 fighter jets flew into the Gulf of Venezuela on a “routine training mission.” That’s like saying Russian jets flying into Chesapeake Bay is a routine training mission. Unfortunately for Trump, Venezuela didn’t bite,” – Ohio Barbarian

For Rubio the Cuba Hawk, the Road to Havana Runs Through Venezuela – “President Trump’s secretary of state and national security adviser has long sought to cripple or topple Cuba’s government, which has close security and economic ties to Venezuela” – Michael Crowley and Edward Wong.

Bipartisan Congress Overwhelmingly Passes $901B Military Defense Bill, Money For Ukraine And Israel, Crackdown On Antisemitism, Missing Anti-CBDC Provision – “More nonsense as usual.” – The WinePress

Two US Soldiers & A Civilian Killed, Several More Wounded, In Central Syria Ambush – “Washington’s Syria intervention is the mess that keeps on giving…” – Tyler Durden

Collective Bargaining Or Soft Coup? The Real Stakes Of Federal Unions – “The surface framing was familiar, a story about “workers’ rights” and bipartisanship, but the deeper issue is more basic and more troubling. When the state’s own employees band together to exert organized pressure on the elected government, the usual picture of a free people bargaining with a private employer no longer fits. Something closer to an inversion of republican government begins to take shape.” – Amuse on X

Land Along Southern Border Is Transferred to Navy to Become Part of ‘National Defense Area’ – “The 760 acres of California land will be controlled by the military, allowing troops to make arrests.” – Jacob Burg

Pathetic Dem HOAX Exposed: Old Trump Photo ‘Redacted’ In Effort To Smear Him As Pedophile – “Women in image were 22-Year-old models who called him a ‘gentleman’” – Steve Watson

The Tenpenny Files (VIDEO ) with Gail Eisnitz – “The Killing Floor Truth the Meat Industry Has Spent Decades Burying. Most Americans have never seen the inside of a modern slaughterhouse. That is not an accident. It is the result of a system built on secrecy, speed, and silence. Gail explains how massive slaughter operations now process animals at speeds that defy logic. Conscious animals are routinely skinned or dismembered while fully aware of what is happening to them. Workers, many undocumented and desperate, describe the emotional destruction that follows them long after their shift ends. What Gail documents is not simply cruelty. It is industrialized violence.” – Dr. Sherri Tenpenny

Is it Russia that really wants another world war? – “The solution to avoid a disaster of global proportions would be for NATO to simply back down, because when Russia, with its destructive potential, is pushed to the point where it might need to use everything it has to survive, the entire world is in serious trouble (to put it mildly).” – Drago Bosnic

Ukraine War Comes To… The Caspian Sea – “Ukraine has extended the war to a far flung body of water and unexpected place. Ukraine’s military has newly revealed that its special forces conducted successful operations against Russian oil, military, logistics assets in the Caspian Sea. The Caspian Sea is some 700 miles from the front lines in Ukraine, and is the world’s largest inland body of water, which is bordered by Russia and Kazakhstan to the north and Iran to the South, among other small countries.” – Tyler Durden

ECONOMIC NEWS

Inflation Feels Like a Flood, but the President Says, Nothing to Worry about; it’s Just a Trickle – “Shoppers are strongly complaining about how much they struggling under inflation this Christmas season as they try to buy gifts. The Trump Administration, on the other hand, keeps insisting it is all a Democrat hoax, and conveniently, hasn’t gotten an actual inflation report out in months for us to see whether we have a flood of inflation or not. So, you can believe the work-deluged (due to DOGE firings), long-shutdown Bureau of Belabored Statistics with its much belated and beleaguered reports, or you can believe the cries of shoppers like yourself in more than one recent poll.” – David Haggith

Russian Central Bank Sues Euroclear As EU Tries To Ram Through Assets Seizure – “In what could prove a well-timed preemptive attack and shot across the bow, Russia’s Central Bank (CBR) announced Friday it has initiated legal action against Euroclear, one of Europe’s largest securities depositories, which is holding 185 billion euros ($217 billion) of Russia’s frozen sovereign assets. “Euroclear’s actions caused harm to the Bank of Russia by preventing it from managing the funds and securities that belong to it,” the Russian Central Bank said in the statement. ” – Tyler Durden

2025: The Year America’s Debt Crisis Got Real – James Hickman (Simon Black)

‘Trading Sardines’ and Paper Silver – “There is an old trading story about sardines, and it’s surprisingly relevant to silver today. Sardines were in high demand, and the price of a can supposedly soared 10x at one point. A micro-bubble developed. It got so bad that people were mostly trading the tinned fish rather than eating it. One day, a hungry miner paid through the nose for one of these cans. He opened it and was surprised to find horribly rotten fish. He stormed over to the traders’ shop, and demanded to know what was going on. The trader told him, “You fool! Those are trading sardines, not eating sardines.” Today there is a dynamic in silver markets somewhat similar to the old sardine story. Paper silver contracts like those traded on the COMEX exchange outnumber physical silver by perhaps 200x. In other words, there are a lot more silver IOUs floating around than real bullion.” – Adam Sharp  – GOOD ANALOGY AND EXPLANATION ON THE SILVER MARKET!!!!

The Market Is “Very Fragile” (VIDEO) with Lance Roberts – “Despite the markets trading at all-time highs and likely to end the year up near +20%, they are “very fragile” warns portfolio manager Lance Roberts. Record margin debt, AI buildout concerns, record valuation levels, highly optimistic earnings expectations, and credit market stresses each and all could trigger a market correction in 2026.” – Adam Taggart | Thoughtful Money®

How To Sharpen Your Homesteading Tools In Minutes – “Stop tossing out your tools the moment they go dull! Sharpening them is simpler than you think! And here’s the scary part: dull tools don’t just slow you down, they’re also the ones most likely to injure you! A sharp blade is safer, requires less force to use, and helps you work more efficiently, especially in a homestead or emergency setting where your energy matters.” – Olivia Brooks

Your Home Might Become a Death Trap Without This – “As most people, you most probably think that bugging-in means food, water, medical supplies, and security. All of those matter, and every serious prepper keeps them high on the list. Yet there’s something far more basic. So basic that many households overlook it entirely and it silently decides who survives a crisis and who doesn’t. It’s air. Or, more precisely, the quality and movement of the air inside your home.” – Jack

Best Cold Weather Extension Cord (SJEOW vs SJTW Explained) – Ken Jorgustin  – IF YOU HATE CORDS THAT GET ALL WRINKLY LOOKING AND HARD TO ROLL UP, YOU MIGHT CONSIDER KEN’S RECOMMENDATIONS OR OTHERS LIKE IT!!!!

Bartering: Get the Services You Need With Cashless Exchanges – “For me, there are many reasons I prefer to participate in cashless exchanges. First, I don’t have a lot of cash! So, that means I need to get creative sometimes about how to make things happen on the homestead. Second, cashless exchange is more in keeping with my values: I believe in community, buying local where I live, and nurturing relationships. When I emphasize cashless exchange in my local dealings, I can live by my values, which is more satisfying to me. ” – Colette

The insatiable greed of these companies doesn’t stop. It’s never enough, like a bunch of leeches desperate for more blood. Stellantis is not the only ones, unfortunately.” – The WinePress

The Die Is Cast in Canada for the Future of the Alberta Independence Movement – “The Independence Movement and the Alberta Premier Chart Their Separate Courses. And so the premier was taken aback when the crowd roundly booed — not her per se, but her comments. They clearly do not like the deal. They see it as selling out to Ottawa. She is asking an angry army that she has led onto the field to now sheath their swords and trust the enemy.” – Anthony James Hall

John Beaudoin Sr. Is An Unsung Whistleblower Who Has Been Exposing Precisely How Public Health Systems Have Been Concealing Deaths From Covid Shots, Including In Children – Celia Farber

Tenpenny Monday Minute – “Lies, and more lies, about flu shots in the elderly. It’s not okay for journals to omit data, but that is exactly what the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) just did. NEJM never published the data showing that Pfizer’s mRNA flu shot failed in the over-65 age group. The over-65 age group is the group that supposedly benefits the most from these vaccines. You could even say that this age group is the entire reason these vaccines exist. Where’s the accountability?” – Dr. Sherri Tenpenny

The Craziest Thing In The World Is That We Could End Poverty, But We Don’t – “It’s the craziest thing in the world that we already have the technological ability to provide a decent standard of living for everyone on earth, but it doesn’t happen because it’s not profitable. We attained the greatest scientific achievement of all time and then did nothing with it. Our society is completely uninterested in it because capitalism is completely uninterested in it. It’s just so insane how this doesn’t sit front and center in our attention all the time.” – Caitlin Johnstone

DOGE is Dead and Buried Inside of Big Beautiful Bill’s Belly – “Stand back! Bill just blew a big one and is feeling a little unsettled!” – David Haggith

The lie our government wants you to swallow about ‘failed vetting’ of Islamic refugees like the one who shot two National Guardsmen in D.C. last week – “The left-right/Democrat-Republican blame game that thrives in Washington is a false paradigm that, unfortunately, most Americans fall for every day of the week.” – Leo Hohmann

Revoke Parole, Review Every Visa: Rubio’s Roadmap After the DC National Guard Execution – “The execution style ambush in downtown Washington, was not an isolated bolt from the blue. It was the foreseeable consequence of a moral and strategic decision by the Biden administration to fly tens of thousands of Afghans into the US with little more than a promise that they had once been on our side. Among them, according to veterans and reporting in the days since the attack, were not only interpreters and bureaucrats but members of the CIA’s notorious “Zero Units,” death squads like the 03 Kandahar Strike Force that human rights groups have tied to summary executions, enforced disappearances, and night raid massacres. You cannot train men for years to hunt, interrogate, and kill in the dark, then drop them into an alien culture and assume they will quietly run food trucks and drive for UberEats or DoorDash. You have taught them one thing, violence, and then you have left them unsupervised.” – Amuse on X

Even a Rapper Known For Gross, Explicit Songs Left a Trump Party Because of Drugs, Sex and Underage Girls – “The 2 Live Crew were pretty gross. Nothing was too disgusting for these characters. Except a Donald Trump party. In 2016, Luther “Uncle Luke” Campbell, a founding member of 2 Live Crew, described a 1990s party he attended at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago. Invited by the Don, Campbell arrived at the resort with Mike Tyson and Eddie Murphy.” – Anthony Colpo

Newsmax Legal Analyst Andrew Napolitano Destroys Pete Hegseth in Stunning Commentary: ‘Should Be Prosecuted for a War Crime!’ – Alex Griffing

Apocalypse Soon? – ” While the Air Force often speaks of “investing” in new nukes, this time the CSAF opted for “recapitalization,” a remarkably bloodless term for the creation of a whole new generation of genocidal thermonuclear weapons and their delivery systems. (Take a moment to think about that word, “creation,” applied to weapons of mass destruction. Raised Catholic, I learned that God created the universe out of nothing. By comparison, nuclear creators aren’t gods, they’re devils, for their “creation” may end with the destruction of everything. At this moment, Donald Trump’s America has more than 5,000 nuclear warheads and bombs of various sorts, while Vladimir Putin’s Russia has roughly 5,500 of the same. Together, they represent overkill of an enormity that should be considered essentially unfathomable. So, here we are in a world in which the Pentagon plans to spend another $1.7 trillion(and no, that is not a typo!) “recapitalizing” its nuclear triad, and so in a world that is guaranteed to remain haunted forever by a possible future doomsday, the specter of nuclear mushroom clouds, and a true “end-times” catastrophe.” – Bill Astore

Putin Says ‘Ready For War’ Against Europe If Attacks On Russian Tankers, Energy Continue – “US envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law and unofficial diplomat Jared Kushner have been at the Kremlin on Tuesday for high-level talks with President Vladimir Putin. President Putin’s public words in the context of the meeting wherein the US side is formally pitching the plan have presented an opportunity for him to lash out at Europe. If Europe starts a war with Russia, soon there will be “no one left to negotiate with” – he warned after several EU and NATO officials have lately issued hawkish words and threats.” – Tyler Durden

NATO’s Flirtation With Pre-Emptive Cyber Strikes Against Russia Is Incredibly Dangerous – “The British might be egging this on to provoke a crisis for ruining the renascent Russian-US “New Détente”, but even if this fails, Continental Europe would still be weakened if the US stands down when Russian retaliates and this could advance their interests too.” – Andrew Korybko

With the penny going away, what should you do with the ones in your coin jar? – “Many Americans regard both nickels and pennies as more nuisance than currency. The typical household is sitting on $60 to $90 in neglected coins, enough to fill one or two pint-size beer mugs, according to the Federal Reserve. Americans throw away millions of dollars in coins every year, literally treating them like trash. To state the obvious, coins are worth money. Coinstar converts $3 billion in coins into spendable cash every year, one coin jar at a time. The average jar yields $58 in buying power. ” – Daniel de Visé and Mike Snider

15 Tips for Success When Cooking Over an Open Fire – “There is something primal about cooking on an open fire. The heat, the smell of the smoke, and the roaring and crackling create an experience that speaks to the most basic parts of us.

Whether you’re camping, living off-grid, or having a family cookout, getting everything right on an open fire is not as simple as it seems.” – Craig Taylor

European Survival Fats: The Ancient Calories That Kept Armies, Farmers, and Refugees Alive – “The difference between starving slowly and surviving winter wasn’t protein, it was fat. Every old European culture knew this long before electricity, supermarkets, or the idea that “lean meat” was somehow noble. Across the continent, from Viking traders to French shepherds, from Scottish crofters to Polish refugees fleeing winter fronts, survival hinged on a brutally simple truth: without fat, the human body burns out fast.” – Rhonda Owen

The Truth About SNIPERS and How to Survive Them – “Because of the growing fear of mass shootings and terrorist attacks all over the world, advice about how to survive mass shootings or sniper attacks are everywhere, and there are useful but there is a bit of confusion there. Sniper attacks in collapse and mass shootings today in peaceful times have a lot of common things, but some facts are different.” – Selco Begovic

THE BIG PICTURE

Bring Back Asylums: It’s Time To Talk About Transgender Fatigue In America – “Transgenderism is not a civil rights movement; it’s a social engineering experiment. The LGBT movement is not a struggle for equal rights; it’s a covert war for political control. The agenda of the people involved in the spheres of trans-activism are radical zealots hellbent on the destruction of their enemies by any means necessary – And if you believe in logic, objective reality, biological science and moral imperative, then you are one of their enemies.” – Brandon Smith

Canada’s expansion of MAiD: “It’s almost the textbook picture of a slippery slope (VIDEO) .” – “Dr. Steven Goldsmith exposes how “Medical Assistance in Dying” has morphed from a compassionate option for the terminally ill into a bureaucratic death machine.” – Collapse Life

Doctors in Canada propose euthanasia for babies with disabilities – “Doctors in Canada have said euthanasia for newborn babies who are born with disabilities “may be an appropriate treatment”, as concerns grow about the expansion of Canada’s euthanasia and assisted suicide programme. Speaking on behalf of the Quebec College of Physicians (CMQ) to the Special Joint Committee on Medical Assistance in Dying, Dr Louis Roy previously recommended that euthanasia be introduced for babies with “severe deformations” and “very grave… medical syndromes”. The CMQ added that, under these circumstances, the deliberate ending of a child’s life constitutes “care”.” – righttolife.org.uk

As Reuters ‘Fact-Checked’ COVID Vaccine ‘Misinformation,’ Its CEO Also Sat on Pfizer’s Board – “The former CEO of Reuters — who’s still on the board of its parent company, Thomson Reuters Foundation — has also been a board member of COVID-19 vaccine maker Pfizer since 2014, according to investigative journalist Paul D. Thacker. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Reuters repeatedly fact-checked statements and articles that criticized COVID-19 vaccines — but not once did the news organization’s fact-checkers find fault with Pfizer,” – Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D. – IMAGINE THAT!!

Cold is the Crisis They Forgot to Warn Us About – “Autumn arrived weeks early, and it was not difficult to predict in advance, as it is a sign of global cooling, a pattern that has been developing in recent years. This year continues the now apparent cooling trend, with Europe, Russia, and North America enduring a string of bitterly cold nights this week, as records tumble across multiple nations” – Dr. Sircus

Rothschild Banking Cartel Deploying American Military to Capture Venezuelan Central Bank -“Trump’s Venezuela Gambit Disguises Banking Control as War on Drugs. The Fentanyl Fallacy The Trump administration’s stated mission is to clamp down on the drug trade by intercepting cartel shipments of fentanyl heading north. However, organizations such as the Sinaloa Cartel based in Sinaloa, Mexico and Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación based in Jalisco, Mexico, receive fentanyl precursors and synthetic opioids directly from China or from intermediaries in the United States. The reality is that the vast majority of fentanyl flooding American streets originates from China, not Venezuela.” – The Wise Wolf

 

 

 

NEWS

The War On Reality is Over – “I will attempt to unravel this hairball. Most obviously, the suspect, now dead, in Wednesday’s Minneapolis school shooting was not a “her.” He was a him, a 23-year-old male, Robert Westman, who had been pretending to be a female for some years since undergoing puberty,… The essence of all that was a gigantic game of pretend, a broad and deliberate dissociation from reality for the purpose of maintaining a political racketeering operation, which is what the Democratic Party had become. Pretend that men can become women. Pretend that Covid vaccinations are safe and effective. Pretend that national borders don’t matter. Pretend that crime is not a social problem. Pretend that riots are mostly peaceful. Pretend that our elections are free and fair. Pretend that “Joe Biden” is president. Pretend that Ukraine is fighting for democracy. And so on. Since the Democratic Party has zero useful ideas for improving the lives of this country’s citizens, all it has is pretend theater, which is public performative psychopathology, otherwise known as acting-out. Mass murders of school-children by so-called trans people are the most garish and horrific actings-out, the most offensive to society, a slaughter of innocents. Such an act grabs everybody’s attention. The New York Times pretends that all this is “a mystery” because to tell the truth would inculpate them in the ongoing criminal racketeering operation of their patron, the Democratic Party.” – James Howard Kunstler

The Making of a Monster – “The Minnesota transsexual murderer of school children wrote out clear clues of what drove him into becoming something some would consider a monstrosity and how society helped him get there.” – David Haggith

Note on the Minnesota Shooting – “Media coverage of the latest tragedy hits another new low.” – Matt Taibbi

The Rhetoric and Realities of Gun Control – “Within minutes of the shooting at a Minneapolis Catholic Church Mass on Wednesday, politicians and pundits were calling for new gun control measures and blaming conservatives for the deaths of the children. These are the same calls that have emerged after past shootings for everything from a ban on “assault weapons” to a total ban on all guns. What the public is not being told is the limited range of options under existing constitutional precedent. The inconvenient fact in these interviews was that Minnesota has some of the nation’s strictest gun controls, and these weapons were acquired legally in that state by the shooter.” – Jonathan Turley

Vanity Fair Snubs Melania (Again) – “Staff threatens walkout over the world’s most stylish First Lady. It turns out, I wasn’t the last birdbrain to be employed by the Condescending Nasties. In fact, as I type, an entire flock of them are squawking their liberal little hearts out about whether or not Melania Trump should be allowed on the cover of Vanity Fair. Of course, Democratic First Ladies historically get the cover treatment like it’s written into the Constitution” – Jenna McCarthy

ANOTHER Private Bill Gates-Trump Meeting in the White House — Why? – “Yet again, for reasons undisclosed except in the vaguest terms possible — “discussing the importance of U.S. global health programs and health research” — the president welcomed arguably the world’s most egregious and prolific criminal, whose unparalleled psychopathy is financed by his ill-gotten fortune in the hundreds of billions, Bill Gates. If whatever these two are discussing is on the level, why did the White House not provide a press release detailing what they covered?  Last week, in suspect timing, per The New York Times, Gates strategically severed ties with the shadowy Democrat money-laundering firm Arabella Advisors.” – Ben Bartee

Trump’s IRS Reversal – “For Americans who see the IRS as intrusive, inefficient, or even illegitimate, the reversal is a striking reminder that Washington’s thirst for revenue will always trump rhetoric. Earlier this year, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick announced that President Donald Trump had a new strategy for funding the federal government: an External Revenue Service. “[The President’s] plan is very simple: to abolish the Internal Revenue Service and let all the outsiders pay,” he told Fox News in February. But replacing income taxes with tariff revenues was always a pipe dream, something economists have been saying for months. In other words, Trump’s $2 trillion target was always unattainable. Running the federal government on tariff revenues might have been possible in the 19th century, when federal revenues accounted for 2% or 3% of GDP. When federal spending accounts for 25% of the economy, tariffs aren’t going to cut it.” – Jon Miltimore

Law n’ Order – “Perhaps the greatest weakness conservatives have is their belief that you can have authoritarianism and liberty at the same time. One example of this intellectual disarray is the typical conservative’s support for the War on Drugs – which is in fact a war on liberty. The conservative does not see that if he supports the arrest/prosecution and punishment of people who smoke pot he also supports the arrest/prosecution and punishment of people who drink alcohol. That it has snot happened yet does not mean it can’t – much less that it won’t. The authoritarian principle is the same. Conservatives have a tendency to venerate authority – cops and even more so the military – even though both work for the government and the conservative says he is leery of government. That is a hard circle to square.” – Eric Peters

How did American Crime get so Bad? – “And how to fix it” – Peter St Onge

The Estrogens’ Final Gambit Flooding Us with Rapists and Murderers to Ignite a Holy War. Hear me, you who cling to power—you Estrogens perched in courts and boardrooms, both houses of parliament, every level of government and polite society, you who presume to rule through ballots and bribes: we are the bastard sons and daughters of forgotten lords, our patience a fraying thread. We’ve waited for the system to self-correct, for invitations to reclaim what is ours by blood-right. But that era wanes.” – E.M. Burlingame  – SOUNDS LIKE MR. BURLINGAME IS A BIT FED UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe the girl with the axe should run Scotland – “It’s come to this: A fourteen-year-old Scottish girl has more courage to fight evil pedophiles invading her country than all the governments and police forces of Europe combined. The contemptible, dishonorable, castrated “authorities” charged the girl who defended her sister and herself from likely rapists — not the grown “men” who deserve a spectacular beating and prompt airdrop in the middle of the North Sea.” – J.B. Shurk

Parties in Cologne elections agree to speak of migrants only in positive terms, as German political dumbassery plumbs new depths – eugyppius

Christians Massacred with Machetes in Nigerian Genocide (VIDEO) – CBN News

Trump Makes Israel Great – “The President declares that he “can do anything”. The assertion explains a lot in terms of how an unhinged Trump regards himself and his office and it should serve as a warning that more ego driven inanity is yet to come. Trump’s most heinous crimes are related to foreign policy, most particularly his complicity in Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians as well as his continued arming of Ukraine to prolong the slaughter in its war with Russia.” – Philip Giraldi

How western media helped turn Israel’s genocide into ‘fake news’ – “Israel’s justification for the mass slaughter of Gaza’s people and their starvation – now officially confirmed as a famine engineered by Israel – was built on a parade of easily discredited lies from the start: of beheaded infants, of babies in ovens, of mass rape. It should surprise no one that Israel continued advancing similarly outrageous lies as it set about – as all genocidal regimes must do – dismantling the most basic infrastructure of survival for Gaza’s population. It cut off humanitarian aid delivered by the United Nations agency Unrwa, and destroyed the enclave’s hospitals, while killing, jailing and torturing its medical personnel. Israel claimed it had documents proving the UN was a front for Hamas – documents it never produced. Meanwhile, all 36 of Gaza’s hospitals have been attacked – attacks whose implicit rationale was that they were built atop Hamas “command and control centres”, though those centres have never been found.” – Jonathan Cook

Modi to hold talks with Xi and Putin in China – “The Indian PM will be in Tianjin for the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit – RT

Here’s What the US’ Security Guarantees For Ukraine Might Look Like – “Trump appears to be pushing his luck with Putin, who’s open to compromises, not concessions, let alone significant security ones. If this approach doesn’t change, then a serious escalation is expected.” – Andrew Korybko

‘Obvious’ That Putin-Zelensky Meeting Won’t Happen: Germany’s Merz – “Overnight and early Thursday hours saw Russia unleash the second largest aerial attack on Ukraine since the conflict began, which included almost 600 missiles and drones, and which unleashed devastation particularly in Kiev. And meanwhile the White House has done nothing to slow the arms pipeline to Ukraine’s military,” – Tyler Durden
