    The editor of the left-wing outlet, New Matilda, was severely vaccine injured after the second shot.

    Only when progressives themselves suffer from the insanity they supported do they begin to consider the costs.

    There are literally MILLIONS like this guy. Expect millions more.

    Germ,
    This crime opens an epoch of profound sorrows. No known civilised punishment known will be adequate to punish the criminals, including the medical doctors who abandoned established medical practice – that of treating the patient before them while doing least damage and destroying their only currency – trust. Those abstaining from the experiment along with those not affected will watch their world buried and all those futures disappear from eternity. The survivors will be required to learn how to forgive, there is no other recourse while keeping one’s humanity intact. YMMD

    Tonight is a special night in Hong Kong, the sky shows us the moon with Jupiter and Venus equally spaced on a vertical, with the moon at the top. Quite stunning. A magnificent sight that makes you appreciate why the ancients used the stars and planets as guidance.

    These planets are currently visible in Hong Kong:
    Mercury: From Fri 06:01
    Venus: Until Thu 20:30
    Mars: Until Fri 02:00
    Jupiter: Until Thu 20:59
    Saturn: From Fri 06:33

    Germ that top article was frustrating and sad because he literally can’t see it is the vaccine. I know I sound biased saying that but too many people just won’t look. He even quotes the actuaries numbers of excess deaths and says they are all covid in 2022 but the link he posts clearly says otherwise. Like he is reading but can’t digest the words.

    Crazy man. He is kind of pushing the vax in a weird way.

    “Mr. Putin announced that Russia shall immediately withdraw from the START II treaty,”

    This is not true, as I understand, he suspended the treaty. This treaty was based on inspections, which were already suspended under Covid and the U.S. is not now or perhaps hasn’t been, allowing Russian inspectors into our military bases. So again, it’s an important rhetorical device that has real and serious implications but often the details matter.

    “We have seen some signs that they may be planning for that,”

    “Planning”? As in “Thinking”? So China may have committed Thoughtcrime? …Or maybe not?

    I know this is all diplo-speak with 2nd level meaning, but it gets ridiculous after a while. …That’s why I find Putin’s and Xi’s long, hour-long, 30-point indictment of specific crimes so important. They are taking off all pretense and speaking directly, that is: telling the truth.

    In contrast: “The NATO chief went on to argue that the alliance is “no party” to the hostilities, even while stressing that it would support Kiev for “as long as it takes”

    So we’re in the war “to the hilt”, but we’re also not in the war at all, what are you talking about you crazy person? …But it gets ridiculous after a while.

    Note: as the Administration and their action goes beyond ridiculous into ludicrous speed, with Trump helping Ohio and Biden helping Ukraine, giving them free life-long pensions, with Buttigeig not going citing “doesn’t want a photo op”, the EPA refusing to test an environmental spill site until most of the pollution is gone. Note what?

    IT STILL DOESN’T MATTER. Even pulling out every stop, such that it seems like Trump is personally orchestrating Biden’s every move in a direct attempt to alienate and antagonize the American people against him, the DNC, and the Federal Occupation, it STILL doesn’t arouse them from their lethargy. What does it take? A nuclear bomb? Because those are on deck. It seems nothing can.

    The answer is US. WE have to realize and stop. Now you see why it’s so difficult and they, the Trump administration has so much trouble. “But her emails”. Direct, open checks from Moscow to Biden. 300 suicides and another yesterday. 2 million people – arguably armed invaders – in a fully open border. Carrying each day enough fentanyl to level a city. …And about 500 other things. NO EFFECT. NO MOTION. STILL DOESN’T MATTER. As Uri Bezmanof said. I don’t know what to say then.

    All it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do say nothing.

    …But the suicide, I think the Good Guys have gained enough control they are getting the bad guys to kill each other. Which is fine, but if you don’t sign up, the Good Guys will remain in the minority and cannot prevail.

    ““…Western capitalist ideology has been so successful in setting material, technological progress”

    The ideology that when I make something, it’s mine? Weird. Maybe you’d like to define that? And technological progress? Where? San Jose? Because the rest of the nation is headed back to 1900 on the steam-powered express.

    Canada’s youngest athletes, ages 6-13 are dying suddenly: COVID-19 vaccine mandates”

    No one notices. No one cares. No one acts. They’ve been innoculated against #Reality, not Covid…because they can still GET Covid.

    Vax stats in Argentina: was that the one where in the last 2 weeks, they suddenly found 20,000 people all with the same stats and numbers? How long does it take to talk to and do paperwork on 20k? Yeah, that doesn’t say data fabrication at all.

    insert ‘by their injection’ following “… those not affected * will watch …” at the *.

    The Crist taught love to prosper and how that lesson took is clearly seen. The prophetic second coming will doubtlessly involve forgiveness to survive, some doubts how well that lesson will be learned as well. Again YMMV

    Putin made it clear, once again, that the element of trust between Russia and the west, especially the US, is gone.
    So it’s a natural decision for Russia to “withdraw from the treaty on strategic offensive weapons, but we don’t do it officially. For now we are only halting our participation to the START treaty. No US inspections in our nuclear sites can be allowed.”

    Re: Gonzalo Lira, talking about this paper: https://www.fmprc.gov.cn/mfa_eng/wjbxw/202302/t20230220_11027664.html
    which concludes thusly:
    “While a just cause wins its champion wide support, an unjust one condemns its pursuer to be an outcast. The hegemonic, domineering, and bullying practices of using strength to intimidate the weak, taking from others by force and subterfuge, and playing zero-sum games are exerting grave harm. The historical trends of peace, development, cooperation, and mutual benefit are unstoppable. The United States has been overriding truth with its power and trampling justice to serve self-interest. These unilateral, egoistic and regressive hegemonic practices have drawn growing, intense criticism and opposition from the international community.

    Countries need to respect each other and treat each other as equals. Big countries should behave in a manner befitting their status and take the lead in pursuing a new model of state-to-state relations featuring dialogue and partnership, not confrontation or alliance. China opposes all forms of hegemonism and power politics, and rejects interference in other countries’ internal affairs. The United States must conduct serious soul-searching. It must critically examine what it has done, let go of its arrogance and prejudice, and quit its hegemonic, domineering and bullying practices.”

    China is merely establishing the moral justification for war against the US, not “declaring war”.

    An economic death spiral occurs when a system loses critical mass. For example, the UK’s energy death spiral – which is reaching its crisis phase – is the result of rising energy costs creating an involuntary loss of demand across the system. In part, businesses and households engage in energy-saving and conservation methods to lower their demand. And in part, they self-disconnect – in the case of businesses, they go bust, while household simply shiver in the dark. The reason this becomes a death spiral is because the system was designed around cheap energy and mass consumption. But as the cost of energy rises the mass consumption is lost. And so, the rising cost must fall on a shrinking consumer base… which, in turn, causes more businesses and households to disconnect. In the UK, this reached the point last year, that the state had to step in to bail out the energy companies by paying a portion of household energy bills – although with the cost running to billions of pounds, and with the UK economy outside London already in a recession, this is unsustainable. And so, the crisis point is reached. Without state aid, the energy industry is no longer profitable, companies will go bust, most likely followed by a period of mergers and acquisitions until it becomes clear that the entire economy will have to readjust to using far less energy and at a far higher cost.

    Energy is far from alone in facing a death spiral. Pretty much all of our critical infrastructure – which is another term for our life support systems – has the same dependence upon mass consumption. Take the road network. Arguably – and a lot of Just Stop Oil types are very vociferous in making this argument – almost all road use is frivolous. Yes, lots of people claim that they “need” to drive to get to their work. But as we learned over two years of lockdowns, a large number could just as easily work from home. And most of those who can’t, could walk, cycle or use public transport.

    The bit that the net zero zealots ignore though, is that whether we like it or not, our life support depends upon a fleet of heavy trucks – for which there is no viable alternative to diesel-power – moving essentials like food, machine parts, medical supplies, etc., without which not only would our economy come to a halt, but millions would die in fairly short order. When all is said and done then, we will continue to need roads well beyond the various state target dates for phasing them out.

    Unlike the energy death spiral, where it is the breakdown of a market mechanism – falling consumer demand – which accelerates the decline, the road death spiral will play out differently because, for the most part, Britain funds its roads via general taxation. Indeed, politicians tend to promote new roads as a Keynesian means of stimulating growth during recessions – a means of putting millions of new pounds into the hands of previously unemployed workers. But again, the British state is now in so precarious a situation that such largesse is no longer affordable. Politicians may claim that they are cutting road building for environmental reasons, but decisions are really being made on cost grounds.

    Nevertheless, even if no new roads are built, the existing network has to be maintained if those essential supplies are to continue getting through… and that means that someone has to pay for it. One of the big problems facing the Department for Transport is that the decision to phase out internal combustion engine vehicles by 2030 also means foregoing the £27bn-a-year taken from duty on fuel. This has led to broad acceptance that some form of road pricing will be inevitable to maintain the road network. The reason that road pricing is currently the favoured solution is precisely because as ever fewer of us are able to drive – whether through state regulation or the increasing cost of vehicles, fuel and maintenance – so political resistance to using taxes to fund roads will inevitably increase. The obvious problem though, is that road pricing must result in a similar loss of critical mass to that seen with energy. And there is simply no way that we could load the entire cost of road maintenance onto the operators of the essential trucks without making the cost of essentials so expensive that, again, millions of people would be dead in relatively short order.

    When it comes to feeding us, we find yet another form of death spiral. The supermarket model

    More death spirals begin to spin

    People imagine the exploding factories, warehouse fires, derailed trains, falling skyscrapers, busted water mains, and more are the work of saboteurs and chaos agents. Terry Gilliam in Brazil suggested that the real guerilla insurgent was a mechanic, a plumber, who fixes things without State approval in the dead of night, under cover, without payment. The supposed sabotage was just the infrastructure breaking down from dysfunction and corruption.

    Maybe the narrative that “They are destroying us! They are blowing up our infrastructure!” unwittingly plays into a totalitarian State’s interest. “¿Oh, there are conspirators seeking to disrupt our way of life? Yes! You are correct! It’s a right-wing extremists!It’s left-wing environazis! It’s disgruntled young involuntarily celibate men!”

    This is a narrative already playing out. It’s difficult to think clearly about how to identify dysfunction or destruction accurately, to know who is responsible for what. But it’s not hard to know if you helped repair something after learning how to do so.

    Perhaps “modern medicine” is already there, where learning to heal without a license returns us to how it used to be for humanity for thousands of years and many cultures before these past three years?

    Re: Escobar’s remarks ( https://thecradle.co/article-view/21772/putins-civilizational-speech-frames-conflict-between-east-and-west ).

    RT has been my preferred source still available here in UTC+1. A year ago, just before the SMO began, RT’s newscast mentioned the OCSE observers had been evacuated due to greatly increased (40 fold) in military activity in the Donbas and a young reporter who had been reporting of people being evacuated from the shelled area and that day was reporting from a railway station receiving evacuees in Russia itself. Reporting of the support they were receiving on arrival at the station with food, clothing and shelter including private residences. One remark was made by the reporter that there was an unconfirmed report that Ukrainian shells or rockets had landed in Russia itself but no material damage had been done and further information would be sought and reported. Seems events overtook intent and the SMO began shortly thereafter. One thing you can take to the bank – Russia will protect its borders from any provocation from anyone, Ukrain should have been much more careful with their toys. This will not have been reported elsewhere in the collective west. From a newscast witnessed on RT (which may be cause of its unavailability this side of the new iron curtain).

    US Hegemony and Its Perils

    February 2023

    This report, by presenting the relevant facts, seeks to expose the U.S. abuse of hegemony in the political, military, economic, financial, technological and cultural fields, and to draw greater international attention to the perils of the U.S. practices to world peace and stability and the well-being of all peoples.

    Contents

    Introduction

    I. Political Hegemony—Throwing Its Weight Around

    II. Military Hegemony—Wanton Use of Force 

    III. Economic Hegemony—Looting and Exploitation

    IV. Technological Hegemony—Monopoly and Suppression

    V. Cultural Hegemony—Spreading False Narratives

    Conclusion
    Countries need to respect each other and treat each other as equals. Big countries should behave in a manner befitting their status and take the lead in pursuing a new model of state-to-state relations featuring dialogue and partnership, not confrontation or alliance. China opposes all forms of hegemonism and power politics, and rejects interference in other countries’ internal affairs. The United States must conduct serious soul-searching.

    What name can you give to the first globe spanning hot war (armed combat, biological, psychological, economic, etc.) that declines to name itself?

    This current war will be the first major war to never have been formally declared by ANY of its active and participating belligerents. Direct war dead (meaning the number of people killed by direct hostile war action, not by anything else) can only be guesstimated, but it already compares to, and maybe exceeds the total war dead of WW2, which was about 100 million.

    It will eventually acquire a name, I suppose, but it will never be legally, publicly, OFFICIALLY declared by any globally recognized government.

    Why not?

    Because when it is finished there will not BE any such government, on either side. It could only be (and therefore shall be) a NEW form of world order, of which there are only two possibilities.

    The new form of government will be either one those two possibilities or the other.

    Possibility #1 Would be a one world monolithic that goes far, far beyond mere government into the realm of complete coordinated control of all human activity.

    Possibility #2 would be a collaborative confederation of self-defined nations that interact with each other under some sort of agreement which allows each member of the confederation of nations to continue to sovereignly exist.

    When a game is for ALL of the marbles (and I do mean all) then maybe you don’t really need to give it a name at all. You just call it the war.

    Consider the following.

    It would be a real concern if this money really did flow to Ukraine………it does not.

    It never leaves Western economies. Britain sells weapons from British Army Reservists at inflated prices to the Foreign Aid Budget at Foreign Office and thus uses sleight of hand accounting.

    Poland sells tanks to EU “Peace Fund” which credits Poland for overvalued trash and carries the IOUs on the Special Off-Sheet Fund created – like so many others – by the EU Commission and supposedly covered by German taxpayers bolstered by German trade surpluses – which are not guaranteed going forward.

    The Ukrainian Refugees are funded from the UK Foreign Aid Budget inside UK

    The whole scam is accounting trickery. Biden is funnelling money to Pentagon and Contractors who are funding their puppets in Congress – just as Ukrainian money backwashed through Viktor Pinchuk into US politics and through Kolomoisky into Hunter Biden – now Funds credited to Ukraine actually backwash into US politics through Pentagon and Contractors and “Consultancies”

    When a Us President like Obama took office he received a List of Appointees from the Council for Foreign Relations just as Trump’s friends in Republican Party did – they staff the system – and they recycle the money.

    The whole thing is like the TARP in 2008 whereby Paulson (Goldman Sachs) funnelled taxpayer money into Wall Street. – then Covid Scam funnelled taxpayer money into Big Pharma – now Ukraine funnels taxpayer money into Military-Industrial-Congressional Complex

    Taxpayers stand their stupefied as they are robbed blind – and as W C Fields said “Never give a sucker an even break”

    “Slavery Or Autonomy” is up, with a really fine 9 minutes of Tulsi Gabbard at the peace rally.
    https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/slavery-or-autonomy

    I feel a lot of tension and urgency. It’s not just me, I think. I’m sensitive to the vibes in our world. This feels like a critical moment of decision and action for our species, even though it just looks like another week of mounting threats of nuclear war.
    Nuclear War is an existential threat, but the underlying threat, that nuclear armageddon is supposed to stampede us into accepting, is human slavery through technical means, the “Fourth Industrial Revolution”. There is a series of steps to that end, each more inescapable than the last.

    Spartacus, Spartacast 7, with transcript:
    ​ ​The baddies are willing to drag us into World War III, right to the brink of nuclear war, to cover up what they’re doing. They’re using one manufactured phony crisis after another to terrorize the public. People must understand that this is a pattern of deliberate psychological abuse, perpetrated by extremely powerful and wealthy people who despise us and desire absolute, tyrannical control over all human activity on this planet. They use wokeism and anti-nationalism simply as a means of redirecting justifiable populist anger over economic stagnation and stalled upward mobility into other, irrelevant issues.
    ​ ​Let’s face it. All this rhetoric in the past decade about race, gender, sexuality, identity politics, it’s all divisive nonsense. There is only one fight, and it’s the fight around economic class, and that’s something that unites populists on the right and the left. There is no Left or Right anymore. It’s Us versus Them. And by Them, I mean the high-net-worth people. The human cattle ranchers.

    ​ Former Congresswoman, Tulsi Gabbard (got my write-in vote in 2020)​ speaking at the Washington DC peace rally, Sunday, talks about the 2018 “Incoming missile” alert in Hawaii, where millions of cellphones went off saying “Seek Immediate Shelter” and there was none. (Thanks Rick)
    This is a 9 minute speech against the escalation to Nuclear WW-3, which “cannot be won”.
    It is a sincere speech from the heart about nuclear holocaust.

    It is difficult for (even) me to envision that the signature of Joe Biden on a piece of paper would surrender the Sovereignty of the United States to an unelected bureaucrat, appointed to be Director of the World Health Organization. If the bureaucrat declared a “pandemic emergency” he or she would be able to order lockdowns, massive spending by nations such as ours, and unlimited other “necessary measures”. However, this is actually coming up next week.
    The US Senate does not need to approve the loss of national sovereignty, because this has been legally designed as an “update to an existing treaty”, which only requires a presidential signature. This is the wide open barn doors to technocratic global government, of which we have only had a little taste recently.
    This is a crisis, but it just can’t register in the human mind as such. It seems so ordinary…
    If patriots in the US are not able to prevent the signature on the document, the easiest step to prevent, what hope is there for later nationalist success?
    I am not advocating assassination, which would only change the signer of the document to “President Harris”.

    “Vaccine” ​mRNA is found ​circulating in the blood 4 weeks after injection. It was advertised as not getting into the bloodstream, but it was designed to get into the bloodstream and lymph nodes, including the spleen. That’s what those lipid nanoparticles were made to do for specific reasons related to product performance. Notably, spike-protein was found in 6 out of 6 subjects 6 months after mRNA vaccination” in 2021, by an independent lab, as I recall. This explains why the body might make antibodies to “tolerate”, rather than to destroy spike-protein.

    This is a reminder of the kinds of people who find their way to the top of power elite hierarchies.​
    ​ ​The sheriff’s report on the disturbing scene where a top Bill Clinton advisor with ties to Jeffrey Epstein was found shot and hanged from a tree has finally been released, prompting sleuths to question why the death was ruled a suicide. Mark Middleton, 59, was a special advisor to the former president in the 1990s, authorizing Epstein’s visits to the White House seven out of the 17 times the infamous pedophile met with top government officials there. Additionally, he was also on the flight logs of Epstein’s private jet. According to the Perry County sheriff’s office, Middleton was found dead on May 7, 2022 with a gunshot wound to his chest and an extension cord tying his neck to a tree in Perryville, Arkansas…
    ..Ammunition and a gun case were found in Middleton’s vehicle, but the weapon itself never turned up.

    ​ Here is an official Chinese Government position paper, which details the moral justification for war against the US. This is the conclusion.
    ​ ​US Hegemony and Its Perils​ , Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China
    ​While a just cause wins its champion wide support, an unjust one condemns its pursuer to be an outcast. The hegemonic, domineering, and bullying practices of using strength to intimidate the weak, taking from others by force and subterfuge, and playing zero-sum games are exerting grave harm. The historical trends of peace, development, cooperation, and mutual benefit are unstoppable. The United States has been overriding truth with its power and trampling justice to serve self-interest. These unilateral, egoistic and regressive hegemonic practices have drawn growing, intense criticism and opposition from the international community.
    ​ ​Countries need to respect each other and treat each other as equals. Big countries should behave in a manner befitting their status and take the lead in pursuing a new model of state-to-state relations featuring dialogue and partnership, not confrontation or alliance. China opposes all forms of hegemonism and power politics, and rejects interference in other countries’ internal affairs. The United States must conduct serious soul-searching. It must critically examine what it has done, let go of its arrogance and prejudice, and quit its hegemonic, domineering and bullying practices.

    ​ Let It Rot, describes the hopelessness of young adults in China, who cannot get ahead, despite hard work, and become exhausted and disheartened. This reminds me of the analysis from Surplus Energy Economics last week, that China already has declining prosperity-per-capita. Thanks Charles.
    ​ So many of my peers are struggling to find, even their first job. Or if they had one, some quit because they are burnt out.
    Chinese society says you can only be successful if you go to a good school, get a high-paying and high-status job and buy a home. But, it seems almost impossible now.

    I excerpt Pepe Escobar’s dissection of Russian President Putin’s State of the Union speech Tuesday here:
    ​ ​In his Federal Assembly address, President Putin emphasized that Russia is not only an independent nation-state but also a distinct civilization with its own identity, which is in conflict and actively opposes the values of ‘western civilization.’​ …
    ​..​In myriad ways, what happened a year ago also marked the birth of the real, 21st century multipolar world.
    Then two days later, Moscow launched the Special Military Operation (SMO) in Ukraine to defend said republics…
    ..Ukraine, part of Russian civilization, now happens to be occupied by western civilization, which Putin said “became hostile to us,” like in a few instances in the past. So the acute phase of what is essentially a war by proxy of the west against Russia takes place over the body of Russian civilization.
    ​ ​That explains Putin’s clarification that “Russia is an open country, but an independent civilization – we do not consider ourselves superior but we inherited our civilization from our ancestors and we must pass it on.” …
    ..“Ukraine is being used as a tool and testing ground by the west against Russia.” Thus the inevitable follow-up: “The more long-range weapons are sent to Ukraine, the longer we have to push the threat away from our borders.”
    ​ ​Translation: this war will be long – and painful. There will be no swift victory with minimal loss of blood.​..
    ..Putin made it clear, once again, that the element of trust between Russia and the west, especially the US, is gone. So it’s a natural decision for Russia to “withdraw from the treaty on strategic offensive weapons, but we don’t do it officially. For now we are only halting our participation to the START treaty. No US inspections in our nuclear sites can be allowed.”…
    ​..​Bypassing the US dollar is the essential play towards multipolarity. During his speech, Putin made a point to extol the resilience of the Russian economy: “Russian GDP in 2022 decreased only by 2.1 percent, estimates of the opposing side did not become reality, they said 15, 20 percent.” That resilience gives Russia enough room to “work with partners to make the system of international settlements independent of the US dollar and other western currencies. The dollar will lose its universal role.”​ …
    ..Putin went all out in praise of economic corridors, from West Asia to South Asia: “New corridors, transport routes will be built towards the East, this is the region where we will focus our development, new highways to Kazakhstan and China, new North-South corridor to Pakistan, Iran.”
    ​ ​And those will connect to Russia developing “the ports of the Black and Azov Seas, it’s necessary to build logistics corridors within the country.” The result will be a progressive interconnection with the International North South Transportation Corridor (INSTC) whose principals include Iran and India, and eventually China’s mega-trillion-dollar Belt and Road Initiative (BRI)…
    .Putin remarked on how “our relations with the west have degraded, and this is entirely the fault of the United States;” how NATO’s goal is to inflict a “strategic defeat” on Russia; and how the warmongering frenzy had forced him, a week ago, to sign a decree “putting new ground-based strategic complexes on combat duty.”
    ​ ​So it’s no accident that the US ambassador was immediately summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs right after Putin’s address.
    ​ ​Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told Ambassador Lynne Tracey in no uncertain terms that Washington must take concrete measures: among them, to remove all US and NATO military forces and equipment away from Ukraine. In a stunning move, he demanded a detailed explanation of the destruction of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines, as well as a halt to US interference in an independent inquiry to identify the responsible parties.
    ​ ​Keeping the momentum in Moscow, top Chinese diplomat Wang Yi met with secretary of Russian Security Council Nikolai Patrushev, before talking to Lavrov and Putin. Patrushev remarked, “the course towards developing a strategic partnership with China is an absolute priority for Russia’s foreign policy.” Wang Yi, not so cryptically, added, “Moscow and Beijing need to synchronize their watches.”…
    ..Sensing the waters, the Chinese themselves decided to take the offensive, presenting a Global Security Initiative Concept Paper…​ (below)​
    ..The Chinese affirm the necessity to “comply with the joint statement on preventing nuclear war and avoiding arms races issued by leaders of the five nuclear-weapon states in January 2022.” And to “strengthen dialogue and cooperation among nuclear-weapon states to reduce the risk of nuclear war.” …
    ..Putin’s measured but firm address has made it clear that the stakes keep getting higher. And it all revolves on how deep Russia’s – and China’s – “strategic ambiguity” are able to petrify a paranoid west flirting with mushroom clouds.

    Doesn’t matter, the Empire of Lies breaks and ignores any and all treaties, contracts or commitments it see fit to adhere to.

    It’s ‘solemn is worth gobshite and a luke warm bucket of spit.

    Most of the world”s nations outside Eurotardistan and the Four-eyes don’t trust the Empire of Lies.

    Hope they dump the dollar soon and collapse Wall St. and the cor-pirate e-con-job-ary

    Reject the Empire of Lies and it’s Pedo President and his crackwhore son.
