I had originally called my Sunday article, The Entire World Order Has Changed, BRICS+++. Changed it, in part because I thought people might not understand. 24 hours later, the first applicants.

Wonder how Russia and China can get Saudi Arabia to join, and if they can persuade both Saudi AND Iran.

Global Energy Cleaving Continues, Iran and Argentina Apply to Join BRICS (CTH)

This is not some grand conspiracy, ‘out there‘ deep geopolitical possibility, or foreboding likelihood as an outcome of short-sighted western emotion. No, this is just a predictable outcome from western created events that pushed specific countries to a natural conclusion based on their best interests. You can debate the motives of the western leaders who structured the sanctions against Russia, and whether they knew the outcome would happen as a consequence of their effort, but the outcome was never really in doubt. Personally, I believe this outcome is what the west intended. The people inside the World Economic Forum are not stupid – ideological, yes, but not stupid. They knew this global cleaving would happen.

In April the finance ministers of the BRICS alliance (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) decided to create their own financial mechanisms to continue trade between nations of similar disposition despite Western/NATO sanctions. Earlier this month Fed Chairman Jerome Powell stated, “rapid changes are taking place in the global monetary system that may affect the international role of the dollar.” Additionally, as the proverbial ‘west’ follows the corporate instructions from the World Economic Forum, Powell expanded his points to note the creation of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) is also being reviewed. Following a recent meeting of the BRICS group, Iran (86 million people) and Argentina (46 million people) are now applying to join BRICS, possibly creating BRICS+.

(Reuters) – “Iran has submitted an application to become a member in the group of emerging economies known as the BRICS, an Iranian official said on Monday. Iran’s membership in the BRICS group, which includes Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, “would result in added values for both sides,” Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson said. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said separately that Argentina had also applied to join the group. Argentinian officials could not be reached for immediate comment.

Argentina’s President Alberto Fernandez, currently in Europe, has in recent days reiterated his desire for Argentina to join BRICS. “While the White House was thinking about what else to turn off in the world, ban or spoil, Argentina and Iran applied to join the BRICS,” Zakharova wrote on the Telegram messaging app. Russia has long been pushing to forge closer ties with Asia, South America and the Middle East, but it has intensified its efforts recently to weather sanctions imposed by Europe, the United States and other countries over its invasion on Ukraine.”

[.] The bottom line is – the 2022 punitive economic and financial sanctions by the western nations’ alliance against Russia was exactly the reason why BRICS assembled in the first place. Multinational corporations in control of government are what the BRICS assembly foresaw when they first assembled during the Obama administration. When multinational corporations run the policy of western government, there is going to be a problem. In the bigger picture, the BRICS assembly are essentially leaders who do not want corporations and multinational banks running their government. BRICS leaders want their government running their government; and yes, that means whatever form of government that exists in their nation, even if it is communist. BRICS leaders are aligned as anti-corporatist. That doesn’t necessarily make those government leaders better stewards, it simply means they want to make the decisions, and they do not want corporations to become more powerful than they are. As a result, if you really boil it down to the common denominator, what you find is the BRICS group are the opposing element to the World Economic Forum assembly.

How Africa And The Middle East Could Tip War In Putin’s Favour (DM)

Ukraine believes its fate will be decided in the mud and blood of Donbas – where its troops are trying to grind Russia’s army into the dirt using skill, courage, and a fearsome arsenal of Western weaponry. But it seems increasingly likely that its destiny could be decided on another frontline, thousands of miles away: In the deserts of the Middle East and drought-stricken farmlands of Africa, where 44million people who relied on the country for food are now facing famine unless the conflict can be brought to a swift end. Blockades of Ukraine’s main Black Sea ports have placed a stranglehold on grain supplies which previously fed 400million, threatening starvation and riots from Libya to Liberia, and Syria to South Sudan.

On this front, at least, Putin seems to be winning. A growing chorus of leaders – joined in recent weeks by African Union head Macky Sall – are putting pressure on the West to pave the way for a peace deal that most analysts say would favour Russia, but which would get supplies flowing again. Playing catch-up, Western leaders – including Boris Johnson at today’s G7 meeting – have vowed to do ‘whatever it takes’ to reopen Ukraine’s ports, but are faced with the daunting task of sailing cargo vessels past Russia’s Black Sea fleet and through a minefield to get the grain. All the while, the risk of multiple and simultaneous global famines continues to grow – and with it, Putin’s chances of eking out something resembling a victory despite Ukraine’s heroics on the battlefield.

Before the outbreak of war on February 24, Ukraine supplied some 11 per cent of the world’s grain with food being one of its major exports – worth $18.5billion in 2018, according to latest-available data from the World Bank. Almost half of those exports went to Europe but a quarter went to either the Middle East and North Africa or sub-Saharan Africa – two regions that are now most at-risk of shortages, because they have few alternatives to turn to. Ukraine was also a major supplier of the World Food Programme – a UN body which provides sustenance for the globe’s most-vulnerable – providing up to 40 per cent of its wheat, which is used to make staples such as bread. For the time being, the crisis is logistical: There is plenty of food to go around, the difficulty is getting it to the people who need it.

Sanctions Against Russia Are Leading Latin America To The Abyss (Saker)

Washington uses all kinds of extortion to that end: political influence, economic promises and blackmail, as was the case during the recent vote at the UN General Assembly to suspend Russia from the UN Human Rights Council. After the vote, several delegates expressed that for various reasons they had been forced to vote that way. Due to the impact of the Western “sanctions” war, the supply of fertilizers has been affected, which poses a threat to Latin American farmers, but is advantageous for the United States, which manufactures large quantities of fertilizer. Already, U.S. producers are looking to increase exports to countries in the region. Fertilizer prices are currently at an all-time high and in the first quarter of 2022 they rose by 30%, which exceeds those reached in 2008 during the global financial crisis.

Due to the “sanctions”, shipments from Russia have been interrupted and this country is one of the main producers and exporters globally. Moscow is the largest exporter of nitrogen fertilizers and the second largest exporter of potash and phosphorus fertilizers. In 2021 the Eurasian giant shipped fertilizers worth $12.5 billion. Among its main buyers were Brazil and the European Union with 25% respectively, and the United States with 14%. As is to be expected, if the fertilizers do not arrive, agricultural production in these countries will be greatly affected.

This complex scenario comes at a time when the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (UNFAO) reported that the food price index reached 159.3 points in March, an all-time high, while in February it had already beaten the record since the creation of the cost index in 1990. The agency added that among the five categories that make up the index, four have never recorded such high prices: vegetable oils (248.6 points), cereals (170.1), dairy products (145.2) and meat (120.0). Two of the categories increased prices in February due to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict: cereals by 17% and vegetable oils by 23%. These countries together export 30 % of the wheat and 20 % of the corn consumed in the world.

“West unwilling to answer questions about its mercenaries in Ukraine — Russian diplomat..”

West Doing Its Utmost To Continue The Conflict In Ukraine – Zakharova (Tass)

Western countries are reluctant to answer Russia’s questions about their mercenaries in Ukraine, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Sunday. “As [Russian Ambassador to London Andrey] Kelin said, they [Western countries] are writing some provocative, boorish things. They don’t want to answer the question we ask about their activities,” she said in an interview with the Voskresny Vecher (Sunday Evening) with Vladimir Solovyov on the Rossiya-1 television channel, when asked whether the United States and the United Kingdom have contacted Russia concerning their nationals who are taking part in combat operations in Ukraine.


According to Zakharova, the West is doing its utmost to continue the conflict in Ukraine as long as possible. “They are sparing no effort so that the conflict in Ukraine continued as long as possible. We remember what US 43rd President George Bush Jr said: Ukraine’s mission is to kill as many Russians as possible. <…> They have endowed Ukraine and the Kiev regime with this duty. They are using (Ukraine – TASS) as an instrument and the entire logistics are centered round that – weapons supplies, sending people, anything to keep the conflict burning, as [UK Prime Minister] Boris Johnson told [French President Emmanuel] Macron today, to prevent the settlement of this situation. Otherwise, their plan will fail,” she added.

WHO Behind FDA Scheme to Skip All Future Clinical Trials for COVID Jabs (CHD)

Late Friday afternoon, the FDA released its agenda for the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) meeting that will vote on the Orwellian “Future Framework” on Tuesday, June 28. Then on Saturday morning, the FDA released a briefing document in connection with this scheme to end science as we know it in connection with future COVID-19 shots. [..] The briefing document is 18 pages of text, 1.5 line spacing, with just 19 references — 9 of which are pre-prints or from the CDC’s in-house newsletter Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) which means they are not peer-reviewed. Any true believer in The Narrative(TM) could have written this in a few hours.

To base the entire future of COVID-19 shots on this glorified undergrad term paper is madness. As I predicted, even though the April 6 meeting was presented as an exploratory initial conversation that reached no conclusions whatsoever, the “Future Framework” is now being presented by the FDA as a done deal, fait accompli, you’d have to be crazy to insist on proper safety studies. The core argument of the briefing document is hilarious (or rather, it would be hilarious if it was not a plan to permanently institutional genocide and hide the evidence). In several places the FDA argues (colloquialisms mine):

1. These COVID-19 shots work great, miracles really, incredibly effective, boy howdy do they work well! Boosters too, total home run, the Israelis even have 10-weeks of data showing that they might help old people. What more evidence could you want? 2. Okay, well, it depends on what you mean by work. These shots do not stop infection, transmission, hospitalization, or death, even though that’s why we licensed them. Any protection wears off fairly quickly, but It’s Not Our Fault(TM) because This Wily Virus(TM) mutates too fast and no one told us that it would ever mutate. 3. So these shots must be reformulated but we cannot possibly ask Lord Pharma to do proper clinical trials ever again because we already know that these shots work great.

The briefing document literally states: “The evaluation of modified vaccines for the purpose of vaccine strain composition decisions will need to rely mainly on comparative immunogenicity data due to the time constraints involved in vaccine manufacturing and clinical efficacy evaluation.” Did you catch that? The evaluation “will need to rely on” (no decision to be made here) measures other than actual health outcomes because of “time constraints.” Ah, $cience!

No clinical trials

From commenter Germ: “Start listening at the 20 minute mark if you don’t have much time. He states that BA 4&5 is still evolving and that in 6 to 7 weeks we will see it evolve into a much more deadlier variant crashing the healthcare systems of the world. He said in two months we will be living in a different world.

You really need to listen from the 38:45 minute mark down to the 52 minute mark where he’s predicting the end of western civilization.”

Warnings Of Mental Health Crisis Among ‘Covid Generation’ Of Students (G.)

The pandemic has had a lasting legacy on the mental health of the “Covid generation” of students, exacerbating rates of anxiety, depression and self-harm and resulting in a “significant rise” in young people struggling at university, experts have said. UK universities have reported that more students are experiencing mental health problems in the aftermath of the pandemic, and that this is expected to continue with the cohort arriving in September, whose school experience was heavily disrupted by the pandemic. The president of the National Union of Students, Larissa Kennedy, said she was “deeply concerned” by the student mental health crisis, which was “getting worse”, with NUS research suggesting “the majority of students are burdened by anxiety”.


Recent research by the Humen mental health charity suggested that more than two in five (41%) of students did not think their institution prevented problems from arising. Nearly half (47%) of students said mental health difficulties had a negative impact on their university experience, while a third said they didn’t know where to go to seek help, according to the survey of 7,385 students. Kennedy said students’ struggles were caused by exam pressure combined with the cost of living crisis, and called for more funding to introduce “early support hubs” that would “prevent thousands reaching crisis point” Last week the government announced £3m in funding to close the gap between the NHS and university mental health services, which the NUS warned was a drop in the ocean, equating to just £1 per student.

‘Off The Charts’ Chemical Shortages Hit US Farms (R.)

U.S. farmers have cut back on using common weedkillers, hunted for substitutes to popular fungicides and changed planting plans over persistent shortages of agricultural chemicals that threaten to trim harvests. Spraying smaller volumes of herbicides and turning to less-effective fungicides increase the risk for weeds and diseases to dent crop production at a time when global grain supplies are already tight because the Ukraine war is reducing the country’s exports. Interviews with more than a dozen chemical dealers, manufacturers, farmers and weed specialists showed shortages disrupted U.S. growers’ production strategies and raised their costs.


Shawn Inman, owner of distributor Spinner Ag Incorporated in Zionsville, Indiana, said supplies are the tightest in his 24-year career. “This is off the charts,” Inman said. “Everything was delayed, delayed, delayed.” Shortages further reduce options for farmers battling weeds that developed resistance to glyphosate, the key ingredient in the commonly used Roundup herbicide, after decades of overuse in the United Sates. Prices for glyphosate and glufosinate, another widely used herbicide sold under the brand Liberty, jumped more than 50% from last year, dealers said, padding profit at companies like Bayer AG BAYGn.DE, BASF SE BASFn.DE and Corteva Inc CTVA.N.

“..these giant governments and corporations are thrashing in their death throes. Get out of their way if you possibly can.”

The Time of Our Time (Kunstler)

These days, this place on the planet that used to be a nation groans under a tribulation of bad ideas, bad choices, bad conduct, bad management, and bad faith. We have not been so ripe for regime change since 1776. A ruling Party of Chaos is doing absolutely everything to disorder our lives and there really is no generous interpretation for its motives. Everything it touches breaks, wilts, withers, splinters, rots, poisons, and infects the body politic, driving it deeper into derangement. It doesn’t even pretend to make sense because that would require making distinctions between what is true and what’s not true. We follow-the-science into pure evil.

What awaits is the abandoned scaffold of the family and the community as opposed to the brute hierarchies of mere lonely, forsaken persons under the leviathan state and the behemoth corporation, which have produced mainly new kinds of cruelties, such as: the deadly “vaccine” mandates, the no-knock FBI visitations, the surveillance cameras, the robotic phone trees with their interminable holds, the obtuse insults of the HR departments, the drag queens twerking in your children’s faces, and much more. You might not know it from the news — what is the news now, anyway, except mercenary shuck-and-jive — but these giant governments and corporations are thrashing in their death throes. Get out of their way if you possibly can. Form the bonds you can with people and cherish them. For many, they will be all you’ll have for a while.

You can’t overstate the havoc that we’ll have to live with in the months ahead, short of blowing up the whole joint, one can hope. And it will happen just as a gigantic set of pretenses to a New Order of things rolls out to thumping failure. Forget about central bank digital currencies. Don’t believe that the very people who have severed the relationship between actual capital and money can just magically conjure a new order of money that they propose to control and you don’t. Meanwhile, the old-school money they created too much of is headed for the biggest gaping black hole imaginable because that’s what happens when money based on debt is not paid back. So, for a while, there will be too much money and then there will be not enough, and then nobody will have money.

All that happens as the supply of every kind of stuff in the world stops moving from Point A to Point B, including replacement parts for every sort of machine, distribution of petroleum and its products, and food. And at the same time, it finally becomes too obvious to ignore the fact that many millions are dying or becoming disabled from the effects of the mRNA vaccines foisted on the public, especially in the USA and Europe.

Sri Lanka Suspends Fuel Sales Amid Economic Collapse (ZH)

A broke and extremely cash-strapped Sri Lanka halted all fuel sales except for essential services in a desperate attempt to manage a severe fuel shortage — allowing the government to buy some time and send two government officials to Russia to negotiate a fuel deal. “From midnight today, no fuel will be sold except for essential services like the health sector, because we want to conserve the little reserves we have,” government spokesman Bandula Gunawardana said in a pre-recorded statement, obtained by AFP News. The Sri Lankan government announced only essential services would operate and be allowed access to fuel until July 10 because of a fuel shortage. “Sri Lanka has never faced such a severe economic crisis in its history,” Gunewardena added.

The move comes less than a week after Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe said the debt-laden economy of the island nation has “completely collapsed:” “We are now facing a far more serious situation beyond the mere shortages of fuel, gas, electricity, and food. Our economy has faced a complete collapse. “It is no easy task to revive a country with a completely collapsed economy, especially one that is dangerously low on foreign reserves,” ” Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe told parliament on June 22. “The country is also facing record-high inflation and lengthy power blackouts, all of which have contributed to months of protests — sometimes violent — calling on President Gotabaya Rajapaksa to step down,” AFP said.

While the government said talks were held with the IMF, India, China, and Japan for new credit lines, negotiations to purchase heavily discounted Russian crude oil are set to begin this week. Power and Energy Minister Kanchana Wijesekera said the two ministers would arrive in Russia early this week to continue talks about directly purchasing Russian fuels, according to AP News. “There is an advantage for us if we could buy oil directly from the Russian government or the Russian firms. There are talks going on,” Wijesekera told reporters Sunday. Earlier this month, Sri Lanka turned to Russia for cheap oil to purchase crude roughly $30 below the international spot price. The South Asian country said it received 90,000 tons of Russian crude but will need a lot more.

Voicemail Shows Biden Did Talk Business Dealings With Hunter (NM)

A backup voicemail recording recovered from Hunter Biden’s laptop computer shows that Joe Biden spoke with his son Hunter about Hunter’s business dealings with a Chinese oil giant, even though now-President Biden has repeatedly said that he has never talked to his son about his foreign business dealings. The Daily Mail reports that Joe Biden called Hunter on Dec. 12, 2018, after reading a New York Times article that detailed Hunter’s connections with the Chinese oil firm CEFC. Joe Biden left a voicemail for Hunter on his son’s iPhone XS, which was backed up on the laptop that Hunter later abandoned at a Maryland computer repair shop.The Times story in 2018 noted that CEFC Chairman Ye Jianming had been arrested in China and one of his top aides, Patrick Ho, had been convicted in the United States for bribing African officials to aid Iran in evading oil sanctions.

The story also reported that in 2017, Ye and Hunter Biden had met at a Miami hotel to talk about ”a partnership to invest in American infrastructure and energy deals.” When Ho was arrested, he called Joe Biden’s brother Jim, the Times reported, who told the paper he thought the call was intended for Hunter. The Times reported that it was ”unclear whether Hunter Biden struck any business deals with CEFC.” After reading the story, Joe Biden picked up the phone and dialed his son. ”Hey, pal, it’s Dad,” he said. ”It’s 8:15 on Wednesday night. If you get a chance just give me a call. Nothing urgent. I just wanted to talk to you. ”’I thought the article released online, it’s going to be printed tomorrow in the Times, was good. I think you’re clear,” Biden continued. ”And anyway, if you get a chance give me a call. I love you.”

As reporting on Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings have come to light, President Biden has on a number occasions denied ever having spoken to his son about them, both directly and through his press spokespersons to members of the press who have asked about the matter. Hunter Biden’s best friend and business partner, Devon Archer, texted him the next day: ”Nice quote from uncle jimmy. I hope you thanked him for that.” Hunter replied: ”Took it totally out of the context atctually (sic) the text itself that it was said in. Either way yeah I’m delighted.” But after Ho was arrested, he contacted Hunter Biden and paid him $1 million as a retainer to represent him.

The Daily Mail reports that a FISA warrant shows that federal agents were also monitoring Ho as a possible spy for China. Hunter Biden appeared to be aware of Ho’s status, as revealed in a recording while making sex tapes in a hotel room, according to the Mail. On one of the recordings, Hunter Biden tells the woman he is with: ”’I have another New York Times reporter calling about my representation of the, literally, Dr. Patrick Ho — the f***ing spy chief of China who started the company that my partner [Jianming], who is worth $323 billion, founded and is now missing.”

Turkey’s Opposition Promises To Target Israel, Saudi Arabia And Greece (MEE)

The leader of the Turkish opposition said on Sunday that he will hold Israel, Saudi Arabia and Greece accountable for the steps they have taken against Turkey in recent years, promising to backtrack from Ankara’s recent policies that have sought detente with its regional neighbours. Writing in a series of tweets on Sunday, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, the leader of the main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP), said there were “red lines” when it came to dealing with these countries. “There is a price for martyring our citizens in international waters,” he said, referring to the 2010 Mavi Marmara flotilla incident where nine Turkish activists were killed by Israeli forces in a civilian ship headed for the Gaza Strip. “My message to Israel is that this issue is not closed to us.”

His comments came following a visit by the political leader with the family of one of the Turkish activists who was killed by the Israeli forces. Turkey and Israel signed a deal in 2016 after Israel apologised and decided to pay compensation for the killings. Since then all court cases in Turkey have been dropped by the government. Both governments recently made efforts to repair their relationship, with Israeli President Isaac Herzog visiting Ankara in March. Kilicdaroglu, a possible joint presidential candidate for the opposition during next year’s elections, also criticised the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who visited Ankara last week to officially close the rift between Turkey and Saudi Arabia, which emerged following the brutal killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018 at the hands of Saudi agents in Istanbul.

“I also have a few words to say to bin Salman, who came to our country. Murder on our land also has its price,” Kilicdaroglu said. “Our account with him has not been closed either. He may be playing Erdogan on his finger, but Turkey is a great state, he will be made to pay for what he has done in our land.” But arguably Kilicdaroglu’s strongest comments were reserved for Greece. He threatened Greece with “nationalist” resistance and reminded Athens of the Turkish military’s 1974 Cyprus invasion which was led by then-Prime Minister Bulent Ecevit – who was also CHP leader – and deputy prime minister Necmettin Erbakan. Turkey argues that Greece has been arming some of its islands which hold non-militarised status under a set of agreements signed since the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne. Turkish foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu has called on Greece to stop arming the islands, otherwise their sovereignty would be put into question by Turkey. Greece denies that said deals grant non-militarised status to those islands.

    Tim Kirby discusses what life is like in Russia and the war in Ukraine. The vicious assault by Kiev on the Donbas region is what has led to the current proxy war. Russia has done a good job of taking territory friendly to it. Tribalism is one of the most powerful factors influencing International Relations. Ukrainian nationalists are really fighting for liberal, globalist, postmodern, and post-nationalist goals. The West and Russia will forever be divided for geopolitical reasons. The principle reasons Russians are angry with Putin are related to the pension reforms and that he took so long to do something about the Donbas situation. We should have a multipolar world where at least America, Russia, and China kind of have some nuclear weapons pointed at each other. The unipolar world has been detrimental to America, especially spiritually and intellectually.

    Are there too many of us?

    Preface. This post summarizes the 20 top reasons why population growth was abandoned the past 40 years. A deeper understanding can be found in the excellent Beck & Kolankiewicz (2000) “The Environmental Movement’s Retreat from Advocating U.S. Population Stabilization” and Weisman’s “Countdown: Our last, Best hope for a future on Earth?”

    For many years I volunteered at planned parenthood, zero population growth, and the Sierra Club action groups on population, because this is the ONLY way to reduce the 9 existential threats we face: climate change, biodiversity loss, deforestation, erosion of topsoil, depletion of fresh water, ozone depletion, land-use change, altered bio-geochemical cycles from overuse of fertilizers, ocean acidification, chemical pollution, atmospheric aerosol loading, and the phosphorus cycle (Steffen et al 2015, Rockström J et al 2009). Not to mention fewer traffic jams, less noise pollution — can you think of a single problem that wouldn’t be helped by fewer people?

    Fossil fuels are how we were able to exceed these boundaries and overshoot the carrying capacity of the planet, with world population growing from 400 million before coal to 8+ billion today. But it looks like world oil production of both conventional and unconventional peaked in 2018, coal in 2013, and possibly natural gas in 2019, almost as serious as peak oil, since fertilizers are not only made out of natural gas, but use natural gas to create the tremendous heat and pressure to get inert nitrogen in the air to combine with the hydrogen in natural gas — fertilizer that keeps at least 4 billion of us alive today (Fisher 2001; Smil 2004; Stewart et al. 2005; Erisman et al. 2008).

    Today the Supreme court undid Roe V Wade, at a time when the carrying capacity of the planet is about to go back to 500 million people and birth control and abortion are the only way to get there besides the four horsemen of the apocalypse…

    Why did everyone stop talking about Population & Immigration?

    Looking at all the drops in birth rates for Taiwan, Germany, Switzerland etc I’d have to say investing in any industry aimed at infants might be a bad idea. I’m wondering what will all the midwives and obstetricians be doing about retraining to other medical fields ( like taking care of all the immune compromised people).

    “”F**k Clarence Thomas!” Shouts Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot During Pride Parade
    “He thinks that we are going to stand idly by while they take our rights…”

    This has gotten out of hand. Clarence Thomas just GAVE you your rights. Gave them. YOU, Lightfoot, in the State of Illinois, now control abortion law. The Federal government said there is no law unless Congress passes one, therefore it cannot be Federal (yet), the State of Illinois has full control over all womens’ bodies: they can force them to KEEP pregnancies, they can force them to have abortions even if they don’t want to. They can make the term 1 week or terminate after birth. Illinois has it all.

    Since the Founders or immediately after started government meetings with prayer, this is a no-brainer. There is no written church and state, what it says is they cannot force you to follow a state religion. Which is what we have now. The deep, oppressive, intolerant religion of Progress, of Scientific atheism, and anyone not part of it is destroyed. You knew Nazism was a religion, right? A New Age, Progressive, comprehensive, occult religion. Read a book.

    Has anyone thought maybe they are free to move and alter Roe because the vax just dropped birth rates 20%? (As Taiwan, here: https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/depopulation-taiwan ) No need to kill that 25M if there are no hormones and no fertility. Already hormone poisoning in food, plastic have had a strong effect – they are very concentrated. Birth control is measured in the drinking water, frogs are changing genders in some places. However, it wasn’t noticeably touching birth rates. This may be a 6-sigma on birth, same as something has been 6-sigma on ‘youth’ death (18-50)

    “Wonder how Russia and China can get Saudi Arabia to join”

    Saudi Arabia joined last year. They signed that encompassing deal with Russia. How? Money can buy you all the intel you want. Especially when you own swaths of the U.S. Security State/CIA which S.A. clearly does. Who paid Obama’s College tuition? MBS then knows the U.S. is failing, has failed, and can get the deal on better terms 9 months early. You know, before the War in Ukraine is pushed or declared.

    Following CTH, I believe there are insiders and outsiders. In this case, people who thought the Derp State actions on Ukr would work, and the higher circle in the know (like Kissinger and Mearshiemer clearly) who that knew they wouldn’t. Question is, did they try them anyway as a Hail Mary or are they up to something else? Nuland and Biden, the idiot brigade I’m sure either don’t know or are too cult member minions to care. But the big money does.

    In wars you can know the enemy’s plans but not be able to stop them. Germany knew Britain would land amphibiously somewhere. I think the Big Guys are in this position, and not to say they aren’t adjusting plans to compensate, because they are. I think the CV didn’t kill as many as planned and they ran most of the plans anyway, but adjusted as with the infertility, etc. Not having any power, or any credibility and watching the Global South break away is one of those things.

    Like I said, IF CV had killed 300M like Deagle wanted, THEN there would be no commodity shortage and no pricing power. IF the biowar had discredited China, they would be too busy internally to be an ally right now, and the BRICS would not look strong enough to sign on to. Their active work on these fronts makes this next turn possible against the plans of Mr. Global and Big Money.

    Like the exponential vertical money-printing, many of these wheels are big, and when set in motion cannot be stopped, and have clocks and time-windows on them. Our White Hats for example, being vastly outnumbered, outgunned, are using the plans of the big guys against them, both disrupting time-windows and forcing the enemy to overreact and reveal themselves to the people. This is frustrating and long, but is slowly working, just like it did in 1780.

    “Thirty-two thousand troops in New York harbor. They surround our troops!

    George Washington! We are Outgunned, Outmanned, Outnumbered, Outplanned. What?

    “Any hope of success is fleeting
    How can I keep leading when the people I’m Leading keep retreating?
    We put a stop to the bleeding as the British take Brooklyn / Knight takes rook, but look

    “I scream in the face of this mass mutiny: Are these the men with which I am to defend America?
    We ride at midnight, Manhattan in the distance I cannot be everywhere at once, people
    I’m in dire need of assistance…

    “I’m working with a third of what our Congress has promised
    We are a powder keg about to explode
    We’ll need some spies on the inside

    Some King’s men who might let some things slide

    “Alex, listen. There’s only one way for us to win this: Provoke outrage, outright
    Don’t engage, strike by night / Remain relentless ‘til their troops take flight
    Make it impossible to justify the cost of the fight
    Stay alive
    ‘til this horror show is past…
    We cut supply lines, we steal contraband
    We pick and choose our battles and places to take a stand”

    Therefore: “Washington cannot be left alone to his devices
    [Looks] Indecisive, [careening] from crisis to crisis”

    Get it? They are winning against a superior enemy who owns every institution of power by Not Losing. Wars take money, energy. They stay alive until the money fails and the energy input runs out. We are there now. They now have to print $30Trillion with $40B every 3 months extra to keep the system together. Powell cannot avoid raising rates and crashing the money system again.

    “Where the World Is Heading from July 2022 – Geert Vanden Bossche (Assaya)”

    He hasn’t been right yet and I don’t think he will be. For many reasons, but the vaccines don’t work. So therefore his vaccine-evolution premise is negated. They do cause immune suppression though, so some disease might work, but only on the multi-vaccinated. They constantly get pie-in-the-face because biology doesn’t do what it’s supposed to. It’s like it has a life and mind of its own. Like invasive species, stops expanding and comes to a balance and understanding, every time. Despite near-perfect record of this, they say it doesn’t because they don’t know the mechanism. …Same people who opine on Time, Space, Reality, Magnetism, and Consciousness while having no idea what those mechanisms are either. “Extraneous Factors”. That is: all reality as we know it.

    “Warnings of Mental Health Crisis among ‘Covid Generation’ of Students (G.)”

    But not mental health crisis as suicide and opioid deaths rose every year for decades? No crisis when kids were on milk cartons 40 years ago and nobody changed nothin’? Made the world 10x more unsafe? They’re an utter failure. Their goals and paradigms are empty, #AntiLife. They are entirely bankrupt morally, and soon to be economically. But they want to blame a disease that didn’t kill anyone? Anyone young? “I Did That!”

    Seeing reports from all over that young people cannot regulate their lives. At all. Barely functional, unable to plan, execute plans, etc. Whatever this is, bad education, screen time, whatever, they are not viable human animals in that condition. Which is why they do whatever they are told to do, however illogical or counterproductive. Generations are large and generalizations are difficult, but I see the trend.

    Like the Lightfoot article we started with, they are irrational, self-harming, and demand orders from someone else, require that somebody else direct, control, and take responsibility for them. There is always some psycho willing to tell you what to do, however misguided and wrong, in exchange for your daughters and some cash.

    My opinion, this is carefully engineered using the total dereliction of duty of Us, their parents. It cannot BE reversed, it will take lifetimes, and therefore a collapse. Here’s how it goes:

    “Men are qualified for civil liberty in exact proportion to their disposition to put moral chains upon their own appetites; in proportion as their love of justice is above their rapacity – in proportion as their soundness and sobriety of understanding is above their vanity and presumption; in proportion as they are more disposed to listen to the counsels of the wise and good, in preference to the flattery of knaves. Society cannot exist unless a controlling power upon will and appetite be placed somewhere, and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without. It is ordained in the eternal constitution of things, that men of intemperate minds cannot be free. Their passions forge their fetters.“

    This is the same as “The Constitution is suitable for a moral people and will work for no other” –John Adams

    Liminalism: we must have LIMITS. As Kunstler says, there CAN be no “Nothing matters, Everything Goes.” That society will fail and collapse, and a warlord WILL put limits on you, or else cave your head in with a brick and laugh. That’s what we call “Criminals” and “Violent psychos” which we hear have essentially taken over Portland now, and the city is helpless. …Helpless because to fix it, they would have to admit they were wrong, get police, billy clubs, and jails, and no adult human ever admits they were wrong and will die first. So be it. The inland empire, the moral 3/4 of the State will pick up the pieces when you collapse. What a waste.

    I sympathize.

    can you think of a single problem that wouldn’t be helped by fewer people?”

    Yes, every one. Recognize that the level of technology, of life, depends on our level of division of labor. If you have fewer humans, you have less division of labor. You then unwind all things modern, at least at first. No supply chains for computers, electric cars, for deep oil rigs, efficient and clean refineries. No high-production farms, cities.

    Suppose 20% of the people vanished today. Who would do their jobs? Do you erase them randomly, in which case 20% of jobs are undone, or Eugenically, in which case only the “Important people” and “My friends” survive? We saw this with “Essential Workers” in Covid: every essential person was put at risk and sacrificed, every non-essential parasite was protected by every means they could impose, scolding us in their pajamas, the BMW parked outside.

    But suppose, you, a genius like Lenin, erased all the “Wrong” people and kept all the “Right” people – because you could possibly know who that is. All manufacturing production depends exclusively on volume. This is the “Rise of the Robots” fallacy. Factories are efficient and therefore cheap, exclusively because they are narrow and inflexible. They can ONLY take inputs that are perfect, perfect oil, perfect gas, reliable, perfect electric, perfect plastic types, perfect parts, and they can ONLY output their one product: the case for an iPhone 11, and not 10, 9, and 8.

    Cut population 20%, you cut the market for the iPhone 20%. You raise its price 30%. The next one is not made because there is no bankroll to develop its chip because there are no sales for it anticipated. The factory then closes, splits into four factories, each making 1 of 4 components for which the market is smaller, raising costs on each sub-item 25%. This cascades through the system adding 5% to every component, closing factories, bankrupting the bonds those factories owed.

    Eventually, where would you be? A much simpler, more expensive world. 1970, perhaps, with copper lines and typewriters. Maybe you like that, that’s okay. But realize that all the solutions you thought with Teslas and iPhones nd cleap solar panels will vanish into luxury goods for the upper classes. 1700 Vienna could make watches and robots too: automaton birds complete with air-powered bird songs. But hardly any were made because the price was too high. You need mass-production. You need volume. “Volume” means “People”.

    Maybe that doesn’t matter to you. How about this: for the same reasons, food drops 30% on a 20% population decline. All the HOSPITAL science ALSO stops for the same reasons: no weird, specific, perfectly sterile hospital plastics, implants. No CAT scan machines, no labs, no tests, no drugs for anything but common uses. No lifesaving specialization in nurses, surgeons, experts in that one weird neurology. They fall back to being more generalists, in smaller hospitals with less stuff. Or fewer hospitals you can’t get to.

    Pick that if you want, but be honest about it when you sell it worldwide. You will be living in caves. You will have a far lower standard of living. There will be “Less”: less food, energy, choices, products, opportunity, leisure. Who did you think DOES all that besides “Us the people”? Erase “us the people” and it doesn’t get done.

    Would that be good for nature? Maybe, except like 1970 we’ll cut down every tree for firewood and light the rivers on fire in Ohio because chemical disposal costs too much. You notice the Soviet Union was not a paragon of environmentalism. They had the “Fewer” people you talk about.

    The three-judge panel of the 5th Circuit reversed that judge’s decision in a 2-1 ruling in April, but enforcement was stalled due to a standard buffer period. The mandate was set to go back into effect in May, but a petition from those challenging the mandate for a rehearing from the entire 5th Circuit further delayed the Biden administration from taking action on employees out of compliance with the requirement. Now, the mandate is stayed until at least mid-September when the full court rehears the case.

    @Mister Roboto: Thanks for the Naomi Klein link. This summarizes my position, perfectly. The overreach by the pro-choice movement (with an acceleration over the past 20 years, such as the push for later and later term abortions) + lack of discussion/conversation/involvement in assessing/clarifying/meeting the CHANGING needs/reality of our times – is real. We sat on the sidelines far too long and here we are! More accurately, the powerful pro-choice organization was never set up to acknowledge EVOLVING views/positions, therefore these ideas were never incorporated into operations of “the movement”.

    “Women-led citizens thus can, hopefully, be creating at state levels, a reasonable consensus reflecting majority views, about what a decent society should do to defend what many see as basic bodily autonomy while still keeping what many see as the deaths of viable innocents out of civilized bounds.

    And that debate between citizens, and that advocacy, and that state-level self-determination — rather than a fiat from above, exploited by self-interested entities in such a way as to grow only more grotesque over time — is how America is supposed to work. ”

    Speaking of overreach, this is what Kunstler consistently references when he fingers the Party of Chaos. It is also what Matt Taibbi was speaking about the other day when he pointed out that his “party” had moved to the extreme (left) that it had left him behind. This accurately describes where I stand. Since the natural evolution/progression of the powerful is to overreach, we eventually get to the tipping point. What happens next is up to us.

    Calling us home; we’ve been gone too long

    As light and dark know how to love as one
    As earth and moon they dance around the sun
    A woman, a man: all can sing a new song
    Balancing those scales to right our wrongs

    You and I we hear the call
    The sweetest whispers of our souls
    Honouring the truth to be free

    It’s time to rise, rise sister rise,
    Come on now and rise,
    For now we rise, rise sister rise,
    Open out and rise!

    As stars above will shine for endless time

    A woman free will nurture love with the truth she holds
    A man can build an empire with his soul

    The sweetest whisper of our souls
    Honouring our truths, to be free

    For too long life lived out of harmony
    To feed the greed and the need of dominion over land and sea

    As the fear porn unleashed during the “pandemic” demonstrates, Americans will, with the right dose of propaganda, believe the lies and crimes of the elite. It is fair to say at the time of this writing that a majority of Americans believe the nonsense Biden and his neocons have put out there about Russia.

    The corporate media makes no pretense to objectivity when it telegraphs disinformation and lies to the public. In the last century, two disastrous wars were fought under dubious circumstances. The role of the financial elite in bolstering Bolshevik communism and supporting Hitler before his invasion of Poland is well documented (and is “disinformation” feared by the establishment). Henry Ford’s trucks brought German soldiers to kill American soldiers. It took the intervention of the Roosevelt administration to get bankers, including George W. Bush’s grand daddy, to stop funding the Nazis.

    As of this writing, we don’t know who is responsible for the Kremenchuk mall attack. The corporate media unquestioningly absorbs all the lies and fabrications the government (including the corrupt government of the Ukraine) puts out as gospel truth.

    The Biden administration—a government of neoliberal insiders and neocons—will continue supporting the Ukraine and its Nazis. As history has shown, the US, in particular the CIA, are fond of Nazis.

    Team Biden doesn’t care about the Ukraine. The objective is the destruction and dismemberment of Russia and the assassination of Vladimir Putin. Biden and his controllers have made this perfectly clear, never mind Joe’s inability to deliver a message semi-coherently.

    California was considered an epicenter of the American eugenics movement. During the Twentieth Century’s first decades, California’s eugenicists included potent but little known race scientists, such as Army venereal disease specialist Dr. Paul Popenoe, citrus magnate and Polytechnic benefactor Paul Gosney, Sacramento banker Charles M. Goethe, as well as members of the California State Board of Charities and Corrections and the University of California Board of Regents.

    Eugenics would have been so much bizarre parlor talk had it not been for extensive financing by corporate philanthropies, specifically the Carnegie Institution, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Harriman railroad fortune. They were all in league with some of America’s most respected scientists hailing from such prestigious universities as Stanford, Yale, Harvard, and Princeton. These academicians espoused race theory and race science, and then faked and twisted data to serve eugenics’ racist aims.

    Stanford president David Starr Jordan originated the notion of “race and blood” in his 1902 racial epistle “Blood of a Nation,” in which the university scholar declared that human qualities and conditions such as talent and poverty were passed through the blood.

    In 1904, the Carnegie Institution established a laboratory complex at Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island that stockpiled millions of index cards on ordinary Americans, as researchers carefully plotted the removal of families, bloodlines and whole peoples. From Cold Spring Harbor, eugenics advocates agitated in the legislatures of America, as well as the nation’s social service agencies and associations.

    The Harriman railroad fortune paid local charities, such as the New York Bureau of Industries and Immigration, to seek out Jewish, Italian and other immigrants in New York and other crowded cities and subject them to deportation, trumped up confinement or forced sterilization.

    The Rockefeller Foundation helped found the German eugenics program and even funded the program that Josef Mengele worked in before he went to Auschwitz.

    Much of the spiritual guidance and political agitation for the American eugenics movement came from California’s quasi-autonomous eugenic societies, such as the Pasadena-based Human Betterment Foundation and the California branch of the American Eugenics Society, which coordinated much of their activity with the Eugenics Research Society in Long Island. These organizations–which functioned as part of a closely-knit network–published racist eugenic newsletters and pseudoscientific journals, such as Eugenical News and Eugenics, and propagandized for the Nazis.

    Yes – an amazing build, but… I think they forgot to put a plug-hole in the bath!

    Seeing reports from all over that young people cannot regulate their lives. At all. Barely functional, unable to plan, execute plans, etc. Whatever this is, bad education, screen time, whatever, they are not viable human animals in that condition. Which is why they do whatever they are told to do, however illogical or counterproductive. Generations are large and generalizations are difficult, but I see the trend.

    “This is not the first time you’ve seen eyes like that,” she said to her son in German, “not the first man you’ve seen who could not move unless someone told him where to move, who longed for someone to tell him what to do next, who would do anything anyone told him to do next. You saw thousands of them at Auschwitz.”

    “I don’t remember,” said Epstein tautly.

    MUTINY IN THE CANADIAN GENERAL STAFF – HOW POLITICAL AMBITION & UKRAINE-RUSSIA WAR AIMS ARE BEING COVERED UP IN OTTAWA


    It iscludes the newsitem that General Cadieu, the general who was going to command Canada’s armed forces until spring 2021, has surrendered himself to Canadian police on the charges of sexual misconduct (rape-ish) early in his military career.
    He had been in Ukraine a lot, officially, went there unofficially after resigning from the Army, and was captured by the Russians in Mariupol.
    Shortly after that Trudeau and Freeland went to talk to Zelensky.
    How did Cadieu get back to Canada/

    Thanks Germ: Impairing immune systems and reproduction is a good 1-2 punch for the “vaccine products”.

    Whoever created the video certainly has imagination. I really enjoyed the improvised tools, especially the two man wheelbarrow.

    Two guys at the video look to me like young architects or later semester architecture students having fun being away from the computer screens.. Concept, scale, proportions and details are just too good. For example reveal at the wall following the descend of the steps would have never be conceived by amateur in million years. Another clue is at the begging of the video, when they “drew the plan”.
    The only puzzle could be if there was an additional crew involved, but that is not pressing issue. Pure joy.

    @red, you mention the attack in the shopping mall in Ukraine. Correctly speaking there was no attack on the mall. It was collateral damage reportedly caused by exploding ammo at an adjoining depot. Also photos from the mall show a near empty car park so the mall wasn’t packed. Reportedly the mall also failed to heed air raid warnings.
    Why any government would store ammo in wartime in a built up suburban area is something that the western media has failed to ask
