[See the full post at: Debt Rattle February 8 2026]We are all (both here and in many elsewheres) benefitting greatly from the release and exposition of the Epstein documents, and we should be extremely grateful (almost worshipful) to the people who have made (and continue to make) that all possible. We should publicly acknowledge them, but that’s a little difficult because of who they are.
Come to think of it, that raises the very pertinent question of “Who are they, anyway?”
They are not who you probably expect, because you probably think that those people consist of a small heroic band or articulate and highly virtuous geniuses, and that is not who they are (although the small band of heroic and articulate virtuous geniuses certainly are useful and necessary).
Let me just cut to the chase and tell you who those people really are who made the release and exposition of the Epstein documents possible.
And they did it by doing just 3 simple things:
1. To have such faith in their God of divine truth, love and selflessness that they determined to act, work and literally DO to put an end to the evil that they saw.
2. They sacrificed the precious minutes, days and decades of their lives in order to be free to dedicate their lives to the discovery and exposition of the evil that they had discovered and could not bare to leave it unpunished and unrestrained. They did what was good for other rather than what was just good for themselves.
3. They took on the weight of the task and distributed the workload to millions upon millions of those people who were like them (to greater or lesser extent) and simply wanted to lead good, decent and successful lives.That’s right, guys. I’m talking about the Herd”. Pay them some respect, they’ve earned it. Take a bow on your own behalf as well, because I very strongly suspect that practically everybody who reads Ilargi’s TAE forum/blog is one of them.
Anyone who think that guards, geniuses and heroes are not part of the herd doesn’t really understand what herds are very well. Of course herds have both specialists and grunts and malingerers and troublemakers. How else could they survive intact long enough to devlop into a herd?
So Tucker Carlson and the like ( a handful of stars) look good on the screen and get the message across quite nicely, but he could not report anything at all were it not for the millions of obsessively diligent geeks and weirdos who pored over ever letter of every word of every document and put the pieces together. Those “herd” guys remain anonymous except for the martyrs who got outed, captured and removed. I try to forgive the murderers who killed them, but I find that too difficult to do on my own without God’s targeted assistance. It’s looking like they will have to seek forgiveness from God Himself directly.

———–The interview within which Madeleine Albright said sanctions on Iraq caused the death of 500,000 Iraqi Children was worth it still available on youtube. The very premise that Saddam Husein posed a nuclear threat has been proven to be false. Then secretary of state Albright must surely have known the WMD trope was false. Madeleine Albright on camera says “we think the price was worth it”. The United States caused the death of 500,000 children and certified the action as just using one of the greatest lies of the late twentieth century.
Currently the US is providing materials and support for the murder of children in Palestine.How can any sane person not understand that the above examples of US foreigh policy are demonic? The faux emotional reaction to the Epstein files from people who supported and promulgated these two historical facts is itself a sign of depravity.
The mental and emotional conditioning of children through the constant stream of pharma commercials is not even a matter of wide public discussion. The children of the US are being fed subliminal messaging in the form of advertisement supposedly aimed at adults. As the children go, so goes the nation.
I am of the opinion that the majority of those advocating for the release of the Epstein files have absolutely no interest in the well being of children or justice for victims, none. The majority just want the files released to satisfy their prurient interests. Shouting out so loud, “I didn’t know”.
Herds, like individual organisms, have immune systems. Without such immune-defense-systems the group will not survive well enough or long enough to form the reliably durable assemblage to become an actual herd.
Humanity is a herd, and everyone is in it, both good guys and bad alike. It works like a birth certificate or home team team jersey. You get born and here you are, welcome to Team Human. To survive as a herd (as humanity, a “species” if you will) we must use our immune system to subdue or at least contain the ravages of those herd members who are trying to kill the herd. It is important that we don’t kill ourselves in the process. If we succeed then we survive and mankind continues, and if we fail we go extinct.
In the meantime it’s quite the dramatic fight against these particular pathogens because they have infected (to greater or lesser degree) practically every member of the entire herd, even the nice ones. Even the nice ones are angry and entertain the notion of righteous vengeance.
Let me just remind us all that vengeance is not in our job description.

That Hudson fella is a damn good geopolitically historical economics professor. He doesn’t just grasp the big picture in adequate detail, he professes it.
I’m not a big Carl Jung fan, but he got some things pretty close to the mark. His description of the inner world of a bad guy is disturbingly insightful. Know your enemy, but don’t become them.
We are not at war. We are there for defence. WINK<

Transcript – Canada’s renewal of Operation REASSURANCE
August 26, 2025
Thank you. Thank you, thank you very much, Prime Minister, dear Evika. It’s a pleasure. I’ll make a couple of quick observations. One, there are many areas where we’re cooperating economically, culturally. We also need to cooperate in hockey as well, because I was at that match in the World Junior tournament when Latvia beat Canada, and beat Canada fairly, I have to say. We could see it coming, beat Canada fairly. So, we have much to learn from each other; we’re stronger together and we do that as well.Look, we, as the Prime Minister mentioned, we first met, actually, in April at the Vatican. We’ve had regular discussions through the Coalition of the Willing and other formats since then. But when we first met, the Prime Minister kindly invited me here and I made a point to ensure that I came. We picked a date to come here, which actually is the 34th anniversary of when Canada recognized Latvia’s independence, becoming the first G7 country to do so.
But I also mentioned to the Prime Minister at the time, I recall, because I knew this by reputation, Latvia, by reputation of your contribution to the international community, contribution, obviously through NATO – and I’m going to say a few more words about that in a moment, our cooperation in NATO – but your leadership, as I’ve seen in the Coalition of the Willing, very importantly, and also represented, and we look forward to this, we’re a strong supporter of Latvia’s membership of the UN Security Council, which will come in a few years.
And I think, if I may suggest, that one of the reasons for this strong, these strong contributions, is that this nation understands how precious freedom is and how precarious freedom can be. That recognition by Canada, coming 34 years ago, of course, was after Latvians courageously reclaimed your independence, in this case from the Soviet Union, going to the barricades at the major buildings, including the Parliament. Subsequent to that, a little over 10 years ago, as we know, the menace begins to return to the region, 2014 and Russia’s illegal seizure of… invasion, seizure of Crimea.
Recognizing that this is not… some have described Russia as a far-off foreign threat. It’s not a far-off foreign threat; in Latvia, it’s an immediate threat. Here, one that we recognized and my predecessor, Stephen Harper, and the Canadian government recognized. So, not only taking action in Ukraine to begin Operation UNIFIER to train Ukrainian troops, an operation that’s led to over 45,000 Ukrainian troops being trained, but also contributing troops here from 2014 onwards.
As in 1991, Canada is under no illusions about the importance of your fight, and you should not ever, you should never doubt Canadians’ commitment to your cause; it is like our own.
From that initial 100 troops that were contributed as part of what we call Operation REASSURANCE, a little over a decade ago, it grew then to over 450 troops three years ago, as the menace increased with the start of this horrific illegal war of Russia against Ukraine. And our message is absolutely clear; it was clear from the day that Latvia joined, it’s clear now, that an attack of any sort on this country is an attack on Canada as a member of the NATO alliance.
An attack against the Baltic States is an attack against NATO and against Canada.
Today, that force, that multinational battle group – and the Prime Minister and I discussed the modalities of this earlier – that group has grown to over 3,500 soldiers from 14 different nations under Canadian leadership. Over 2,000 of those brave women and men are Canadians. It’s Canada’s largest current contribution to the NATO alliance.
And, when we look at the current situation, and we discussed this, and I mentioned this when I was in Kyiv a few days ago, we look back at the differences from the years leading up to Latvia’s reclaiming of independence. If you recall, the peace efforts of… disarmament efforts, I guess I should say, of President Reagan. His slogan at the time was “Trust, but Verify,” trust, but verify the actions of Gorbachev. Well, Vladimir Putin is not Mikhail Gorbachev; he seeks darkness, not glasnost; he seeks empire, not perestroika. We can’t trust, but verify with Putin. As we think about the process through the Coalition of the Willing, we must deter and fortify, and that is the way that we can provide true reassurance.
So, to that end, it’s my honour, I’m very proud, along with David McGuinty, Canada’s Minister of National Defence, to announce that Canada will extend Operation REASSURANCE. Our leadership of that, our commitment here on the ground, will extend for three more years. The three more years is just how we do these things; we extend over three years. And we will, in the process, increase the brigade’s capabilities here in Latvia, reinforce our collective defence, strengthen our cooperative security, and keep the NATO presence strong.
I do want to take this opportunity, Prime Minister, to thank you on behalf of the women and men of the Canadian Armed Forces who are currently serving, but who have served in the past, and will serve in the future. You referenced this with some humility, but the hospitality and the experience that they have had means that they do want to stay, they do return, and they are proud to have provided this support.
Together, we have important work ahead, more broadly. As members of the Coalition of the Willing, we are working to secure peace and security in Ukraine. We know that that security can only come through strength, and that means tough sanctions on Russia; it means reinforcing the capabilities of the Ukrainian armed forces, and it means… it will mean developing robust and credible security guarantees for tomorrow. In June, both of our nations have pledged, as the Prime Minister mentioned, to increase our defence spending to 5% of GDP. For Canada, that will represent, in cash terms, a quadrupling of defence expenditure from 2024 levels to the end of this decade.
We had this conversation, we’ve had a running conversation on this; it will continue. And we have, as I said earlier, a lot to learn from Latvia; we have a lot to learn from the experience in Ukraine. Because what matters is not what we spend, but how we spend, how we spend in cooperation, how we learn the lessons of the changing nature of the battlefield, the changing nature of defence. And so, it is very important, direct bilateral cooperation with Latvia, also with Ukraine, but our broader cooperation as Canada with the European Union as part of our participation in safe security action for Europe as the instrument of the ReArm plan.
So we, three decades on… or to be more precise, 34 years on to the day from when we recognized your independence, we stand alongside you. We’re honoured to be by your side to deter aggression. And if I just finish by going back to when we first met in Rome in April – it feels like a few years ago, given all that’s happened, but it was a few months ago – and in his remarks, the Pope – this was at the papal inauguration, as you said – he reminded that peace is more than the absence of war. True peace is more than the absence of war. Madame Prime Minister, you rightly referenced values, so values of tolerance, of solidarity, compassion; values that Latvia and Canada share.
We also know, though, as NATO partners, as friends, that at this point, at this point of actual war in Europe and threat… an actual hybrid war that affects Latvia and others, security, distinct from peace, security can only come from strength. So, today’s commitment to Operation REASSURANCE contributes to the peace, to the security through strength, and of course, our values contribute to the strength of our values.

@ DBS,
I posted this last night
It is economically very disturbingI hope things work out better than that
The solution I see is retreat to your own country, declare bankruptcy, join BRIIKS and get along with everyone by working for mutual improvement
From last night
There is a very short disturbing video at the link
It’s not a global financial crisis
It’s an American financial crisis
http://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/2026/02/because-world-insulated-itself.htmlFrom Andrei Martyanov:
“Because The World Insulated Itself …[from the USSA}
… and this insulation is supported by enormous military and economic might of Russia and China.”
“Many people still cannot grasp a direct connection between military might and economics.
The US has lost the war, the likes it could never have imaged and is not equipped to fight.
It took Russia to start SMO and the trust in Dollar system began to decline. Today it is shattered.
The best proxy the US ever had, [Ukraine] in fact with better soldiers than the US Army, has been pulverized
Amen Brother
Amen

So now we know. So now we are all complicit?
War begets science. Science begets war.
Pillage makes wealth; cheap labor makes more.
Societies rise and societies fall-
As the demons dance at the vampire’s ball.So let the morning sun dawn through the glass,
And watch these creatures shrivel as they pass.Russia remains banned from participating in the Olympics for being at war with Ukraine.
Israel is allowed to participate after killing nearly 73,600 people in a genocide, around 20,000 of whom are children.
Can someone explain this to me?
@ Topcat – “Can someone explain this to me?”
it is the same as when men would lynch a nigger on Saturday afternoon and go to church on Sunday morning and testify about their personal relationship with Jesus Christ. The congregation would comment to each other as they left the sanctuary how deeply moving and inspiring the testimony was.
then at Wednesday evening prayer meeting the congregation would assure each other Once Saved Always Saved and the Catholics ain’t christians.

Thanks for your postings.
I especially like that the military Summary is the full window view, allowing me to access the closed captioning button.Been a rough winter due to the 2 month solid winter cold temperatures and extra dry air which is very hard on my dry skin. Sure glad I no longer live up north!
