ParticipantJohn Helmer is smart and well informed. I have to take what he says as a correction to what I think I see. It sounds like President Putin may have some motivation to settle. I guess its going to be a good show. As they say here in white trash land. Its time for Trump to poop or get off the pot. He can buy a little more time with things like freeze all foreign aid. With enough time, maybe it wont matter any more.

Participant“The World Has Passed ‘Peak Child’ (Populations now in certain decline)
But…but…Global Warming. Environment. Malthusian… Yeah, I said this 25 years ago. I constantly point out the book, “Fewer”. Adding “Demographics is Destiny.” Nothing. Nana nana pee pee.
Proven correct again, only insures I’m a moron who should be ignored again today. That’s #Logic! Can’t I be rejected and a moron for a different reason for a change?
“Unfortunately, Trump exposes his complete ignorance and lack of credibility when it comes to the Ukrainian conflict by subsequently complaining that Russia has suffered an outrageous one million dead soldiers in the war. How can anyone possibly count on the man so ill-informed to be the savior that miraculously ends the war?”
Slips on another banana peel and lands a backflip. 47th time in a row. Trump is stupid – he’s only read every top secret document – but I’m sooper smart! For the love of Jesus, my brother: WHAT IF – and I know this is crazy – he might – just might – have had one of the 25,000 or so generals on payroll told him the actual number? And knowing that, very real number, he MIGHT – just might – be blowing political smoke up your skinny white -ss? WHY?
Because IF it were a million, Russia COULD withdraw. Why? A: Because Russia dgaf what we lie about, fools! They only care about “Reality”. Meanwhile, Neocon Lite can say, “Huh, I guess we showed HIM! I guess we’ve made our POINT!” And be willing to have their tiny little brains turn away from this endless blood lust, because they’re so godd—d STUPID that they have no connection to reality whatsoever and anything that’s shiny distracts them.
Trump just pulls them into a meeting room and goes, “Guess what boys?” “What boss?” “You won!!! Whaddya think about that? Putin’s on the run! He’s on the ropes! We did it!” “Okay boss.” Then sign a peace treaty with the new totally weakened, totally humbled, very sad, sad Tigger.
https://media1.tenor.com/m/6aZotD1Q0SkAAAAd/tigger-sad.gifAwwww.
Meanwhile Russia is essentially unaffected and approaching the size of the United States. Trump doesn’t care because he knows they’re not an enemy but an ally against our common enemy: Globalists.
The 2nd tier dumbkopfs may buy it, and they are legion, but unfortunately the top-tier Death Cult will know. They’ll try, but what will they use as leverage when “The war is already won?” It cuts them out.
Bolton: Yes, but Presidential candidates with history of assassination attempts get none. Btw, “what threats?”
“The CIA murders JFK. The Warren Commission absolves the CIA. Nixon knows the CIA murdered JFK. 4 of the 5 Watergate burglars work for the CIA. The CIA frames Nixon for Watergate. Ford is chosen as Nixon’s replacement. Ford was on the Warren Commission.”
Yes, but the real key here is in Bezmanov.
“Exposure to true information does not matter anymore,” said Bezmenov. “A person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him. Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures; even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him [a] concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it, until he [receives] a kick in his fan-bottom. When a military boot crashes his balls then he will understand. But not before that. That’s the [tragedy] of the situation of demoralization.”
What the above shows is that AFTER 60 YEARS, they’re finally cracking – not breaking, just a tiny hairline – in “Information Mattering”. They, modern, or young, Americans, can finally even HEAR the words above, plainly as if those words are real words, symbolizing real people and actions. …No conclusions – that’s far further on – but the ability to absorb ANY real information at all. Be still my heart.
“JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon: Elon is our Einstein. It’s rational he checks our government efficiency.”
Just threw up a little. I’m not even sure Elon is that SMART. Like, he’s an above average middle manager? Great! That makes you a midwit by definition. Maybe Dimon is saying the other thing: Einstein is a mongoloid idiot, which since his theories have gone no where in 100 years, is probably true. Apparently people like Oppenheimer said he was the dumbest guy on the team, but they liked him as a furry mascot to wheel out to the press so they wouldn’t be bothered.
Boeing: “Show me the incentives and I’ll show you the outcome.” That’s not value-neutral, we USED to have incentives that functioned but actively changed them all to now. Also, this guy stonewalls a Senator about his PAY? That is public record? And this helps you how, sir? What it communicates to us, the people, and Congress, and everyone else, is that he thinks he’s above Congress, and government answers to him and not the other way around. Make your own decisions, but that’s what the meta-assumption is he’s expressing and living out here.
“Anyone who prophesied two years ago that Trump would be taking the oath of office would have likely been considered a lunatic.”
Uh, why? I did. Yes, they said I was crazy, and yes I am right again, and that means what I predict today is also stupid because I’m an idiot. 100,000 times in a row. Subprime was not contained. There were no WMD or ties to al Qaeda. They did not greet us with flowers.
“If nothing else is true, his personal example of courage in the face of grave danger is exemplary.”
Why? He’s like 78: what are they gonna do, shorten his young life?
“Equally remarkable was Trump’s response, not to cower and collapse but stand and assure the people for whom he felt responsibility that he was alive.”
Turley has never met a man before. Well, he’s an intellectual and in D.C. that’s expected. For the rest of us, that behavior is the norm. It’s the BASELINE. It’s unmanly NOT to tell them to f– off. Are you breathing? Well, you can swear. You’re fine then, walk it off. Jesus what a sissy-pants. What do you think, Dr. Rich? I think they should all be dropped in shooting zones and go down in helicopter faults on general principles. Keeps them lively and on their game, in touch with the people.
“Our times are absolutely desperate for examples of masculine heroism. The culture has been nearly purged of such, from movies to television”
Well, there’s your problem. Men are still DOING the same heroic things, it’s just verboten to speak, show, or ask about it. Gee I wonder how that ever happened? Gee I wonder why.
“President Donald Trump has begun delivering on a central promise of his historic 2024 campaign by removing officials who obstruct his America First agenda. Numerous top officials have been fired”
As every President has done since John Adams. Revolutionary. More to the point, WHY did they not refuse to go? Like last time? Doctor up records, press fake lawsuits? Like last time? Because the real power isn’t in elections. It’s somewhere else. Let that sink in.
Note none of the cabinet, etc put upon, assassinated, run out like Scaramucci. Why?
“to fire him I had for one year to assign him tasks, evaluate his performance of the tasks, go before a board and convince the board that he failed to perform”
That is one of four years or more, 30% of your time to get one obvious thing done.
“Ukrainian victory was never his goal. Throughout the nearly three-year proxy war, the Biden administration never set any clear goals”
That’s because he had a clear goal: Kill all Ukrainians.

“• Birthright Citizenship Isn’t Real (Ryan McMaken)
Errr…actually it is. They passed the 14th Amendment but then interpret it anyway they want. You think they said all babies born of diplomats from 1865 – 1900 were full U.S. Citizens? Without looking, I think not. So they just “Made s—t up!” whenever they felt like it. So they can just “Un-Make S—t Up” now. Question is: if it’s not retroactive, it will cause truly unsolvable problems.
It probably should be. A child of a Columbian and Hondouran born in El Paso would still have his parent’s citizenship, wouldn’t he? He was given an ADDITIONAL citizenship. How about this: charge exorbitant taxes…whoops! Too late. ENFORCE exorbitant taxes on all citizens and watch them reject their citizenship, same as multigeneration (rich) Americans.

ParticipantHow about this for a theory: My theory was Russia would push through to collapse on BIDEN’S time — now proven wrong. That may be because they 1) Found they didn’t need to 2) Can control it better under Trump 3) Europe is softer than expected so they don’t need to fire-bomb Dresden but let it fail more gradually. Naturally I can prove — nor even point to — any of this.
IF that were anywhere the case, IF as I say we and Russia are smashing the death cult colonizers between us, THEN …
…Then for four years, Trump and Russia can do anything they want and Russia can be certain they’re safe for now. That is, they know they can call a truce, truce means nothing, and NATO won’t come in because Trump would stop them. Then 3 1/2 years from now, all rested up, Russia can pick up the baton and whack them again. Having manufactured 2,000 more Oreshnik missiles. No one on the OUTSIDE will understand this. I can’t PROVE this. But IF one were true THEN it would be a possible path.
Trump gets a super-win, which like Korea, pisses everybody off (Europe) and Europe gets squeezed to death 4 more years without releasing Marburg. Hopefully collapsing like the godless wreck they are.

ParticipantA comment from Zerohedge…
Why do gringos build their houses with match sticks and then put tar on the roof – it’s literally waiting to get burned down….
Practically every house in Mexico is built with concrete – in fact – even impoverished indigenous people – first thing they do with a few thousand bucks is build a house with block, cement and a concrete rebar roof….
You can literally hold a blow torch to the average hovel in Mexico and it won’t do a thing….
Hasn’t anyone in the United States read the story of the big bad wolf ?
The only thing more pathetic than the fire response – is the construction techniques used in the first fkg place.
Huh. From Argentina to Syria to Mexico, the POORS use concrete? They must be the richest people, because of how difficult and expensive it would be to build with that material. …they’re poor BECAUSE they use concrete!
Most-expensive, least-effective, most harmful building practices in the US.
Sounds kind of similar to most-expensive, least-effective, most-harmful health care.
Or banking, or plane building, for instance.
Trillions unaccountable from government budgets. Disney and Amazon shows that were The Most Expensive Ever but the money is not visible onscreen.
There’s a waterfall of excess money going to awful things. Every conceivable coastline be it lake or oceanfront is getting jammed with 4th and 5th homes.
Best thing Trump could do is fill the NSA with forensic accountants, find all the embezzlers, money launderers, etc and find some way to maneuver them out of their positions. Just keep removing them until reasonably honest people begin filling positions.
That Boeing dude has found a great way to steal tens of millions. In theory the corporate structure would keep these people honest or push them out, but there’s hundreds of them doing the same in various companies right now. But why? A network of people all anti american, fine with destroying value, giving us nothing, while promoting anti-american ideology/religion, blocking internal oversight while blocking external competition.
Call that terrorism and treat them as enemy combatants. WTF do we have all this extra security stuff FOR, the monitoring, storage, the deep data analysis? It’s about 78,161,215,196,161 times more dangerous than knocking down a couple buildings, which we could have just rebuild a story higher and moved on as a solution, unlike this which is actively, observably destroying the country.

One wonders what the people in dark suits were thinking when they fed such bullshit to Donald Trump.The Soviet Union did not lose 60 million lives in that war but less than half of it – about 11 million soldiers and 15 million civilians.
Russia’s economy is not falling.
If Trump wants to achieve a peace agreement over Ukraine he will need to reject the neo-conservative dark suits’ opinions and find people who know what they are talking about.

ParticipantEager To Know https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/eager-to-know
A burning question today is what will be negotiated to end the Ukraine war, or if it will be escalated to World War-3. I was on a Zoom meeting a few days ago with former UK Parliamentarian Andrew Bridgen, who was expelled from the Conservative party in 2023, and lost re-election to Parliament last summer, for his principled stance for vaccine-freedom and revelations about illegalities in British government. He stated that some of his sources reported that the arrangements for World War-3 were so firmly set that they could not be undone. He did not have personal certainty about that, nor do I, but maybe we should. I can’t tell.
Trudging along my preferred path towards more constructive political-economic arrangements, I have been paying very close attention to the pre-negotiations towards concluding the Ukraine war.
“100 days” seems like a significant timeframe, which has been mentioned by General Kellogg, Trump’s negotiator, by Trump, and perhaps by Vladimir Putin, who spoke last year of “finishing the Ukraine war in 3 months if the US cut off arms supplies”, which Trump just did, by holding all foreign-aid for 90 days, including supplies already in Poland, and supplies approved by the Biden administration, but not already delivered. 100 days from January 20th will be April 30th, the day before “Mayday”, international socialist worker’s day. The ground in Ukraine is frozen for winter, but may thaw to mud at the end of February to early March, at which point roads and railroads will be passible, but fields of mud will not, and rivers will swell with snowmelt.
This creates a window of opportunity for Russia to create facts on the ground in Ukraine before Trump reaches the point of adding new sanctions, which he has raised, after speaking of getting rid of sanctions on Russia, which also caused economic harm in Europe and to the $US global reserve currency status, which he has sworn to defend..
Russia has been keeping troop losses as low as possible by grinding slowly forward on the ground, after obliterating Ukrainian defensive positions by bombardment of all kinds and unstoppable fiber-optic-guided drone attacks. The Ukrainian forces are severely depleted and exhausted, but the grind forward is slow and can’t take so much territory in the next 5 weeks before mud-season. Oblasts already accepted into Russia, will not likely be completely taken by the end of April unless tremendously more Russian forces are sent to the front and the nature of the war changes to large, fast-moving “big-arrow” troop movements, as was the case in spring 2022, before so many defensive fortifications were built by Ukraine.
So Russia will have a hard time attaining objectives on the ground by Mayday, and the UK deep-state is working diligently to force a European war against Russia and draw the US into it. The reports of false flags being planned persist. Andrew Bridgen stated that he had been informed that the Russian Oreshnik attack on the massive Ukrainian military production complex was to thwart one of these false-flag attacks. There is no way to confirm that, of course.
Communications between the Trump team and Moscow have been facilitated by Viktor Orban of Hungary and General Kellogg, so I think that Trump’s saber-rattling threat to impose more sanctions on Russia if there is no peace-deal progress soon is for domestic political effect. The 100 day window is technically enough time for Ukraine to hold elections, since Ukraine does not currently have a legitimate chief executive, Zelensky’s electoral mandate having expired last spring. That election can be fairly demanded, and Russia has made that position clear already. There needs to be apparent diplomatic progress, which City of London interests will seek to thwart.
Western financial crisis always looms, and Russian food price inflation probably runs around 20%, though no figures are reliable. This is caused more by relative shortages than by excess money in the system, so high interest rates are not fixing it and may make it worse. this is politically complicated and none of the factions in Russia can be satisfied.
In general the road to a spring :”peace” is complex and difficult, and set with booby traps into World War-3 by the opposing financial/ideological interests. It can be agreed that Ukraine will never join NATO, that “Ukraine” as reconstituted will be neutral, with a limited self-defense force, and also that Russia will pay for much of the rebuilding of Ukraine, since they share Soviet-era infrastructure specifications. The assets in Ukraine, now in Russia, which are “owned” by city of London interests, can’t be spoken of much, but will be pivotal in the actual calculus of any successful negotiated settlement. I don’t personally see how this will be worked out. Somebody will have to take such large losses that the western financial system will be acutely threatened. Could The Fed pull it out again? Who could/would help?
Neither nihilism nor Pollyannaism is appropriate, though we long to be relieved of this uncertainty about the near future. I intend to keep doing what I can, and paying close attention to the progression of history, while awaiting actual events.Trump Begins Deep State Purge At DOJ https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trump-begins-deep-state-purge-doj

Israeli sniper kills Palestinian boy in Gaza on second day of ceasefire
Footage from Rafah, in the southern besieged Gaza Strip, shows the moment Israeli snipers targeted a Palestinian man as he tried to rescue a child who had been shot by occupation forces. The incident heightens concerns that the fragile ceasefire may not hold.
On Monday, an Israeli sniper was seen shooting and killing a Palestinian child as he was returning to his home in the southern area of Rafah. The minor, identified as15-year-old Zakaria Humaid Yahya Barbakh, was shot multiple times before succumbing to his wounds.
The Israeli sniper then targeted a man who attempted to help the Palestinian child, with video footage circulating online showing the man also being shot multiple times. He sustained injuries which he has reportedly not yet succumbed to. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20250121-israeli-sniper-kills-palestinian-boy-in-gaza/ Palestinian Resistance warns against Israeli violations of ceasefire
These violations have had deadly consequences, with reports emerging just a day after the ceasefire went into effect. According to the Civil Defense in Gaza, 122 martyrs were brought to hospitals within 24 hours after the ceasefire was announced, including 62 bodies retrieved from beneath the rubble.
The Civil Defense also revealed that, since the aggression began, over 38,000 bodies have been recovered, with around 2,400 martyrs disintegrating without leaving a trace. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health in Gaza has reported 341 injuries within the same 24-hour period, highlighting the fragile state of the truce. https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/palestinian-resistance-warns-against-israeli-violations-of-c Trump minces no words when asked about maintaining ceasefire in Gaza: ‘Not our war’

DAVOS: Delivering a huge surge of aid into Gaza is a key priority for the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, the agency’s head said on Tuesday.
He described how delivering aid had become “almost impossible in the last few weeks,” with convoys being looted and community organizers assisting the OCHA “taken out by Israeli drones.”
Fletcher said: “We lost 79 out of 80 trucks in one convoy. And then the community organizers who went in with us were then taken out by Israeli drones. So it was becoming almost impossible to deliver a fraction of what we needed to do. Now the ceasefire opens up this window and we’ve got to really show that we can deliver at that massive scale.”
However, he warned that the money would soon run out and that the UN agency needs funding and protection to deliver aid.
Fletcher said: “We’ll need the funding and the protection, which means member states have to start saying: ‘Stop shooting at UN convoys.’ https://www.arabnews.com/node/2587286/middle-eastJanuary 23, 2025 at 8:22 pm #180175John Day
Participant The UNRWA has kept records since 1948 of what Palestinian families have the right of return to what properties. Experts: Israel’s UNRWA Ban Threatens “Backbone” of Gaza Humanitarian Operation
The ban is set to go into effect next week, as aid groups are scrambling to alleviate Israel’s humanitarian catastrophe. https://truthout.org/articles/experts-israels-unrwa-ban-threatens-backbone-of-gaza-humanitarian-operation/ Day 1 in office: Trump lifts sanctions on violent Israeli settlers
The sanctions, originally imposed by his predecessor Joe Biden in February, targeted 17 far-right Israeli settlers and 16 entities accused of violence against Palestinians. It authorised the Departments of State and Treasury to freeze their US assets, denying them access to them, and generally bans Americans from dealing with them.
The reversal comes despite the escalating violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank and land seizures in the occupied territory.
Yesterday, illegal Israeli settlers launched attacks on the Palestinian villages of Al-Funduq and Jinsafut in the occupied West Bank, setting fire to homes, shops and vehicles…

Some vaccine-injured people recognised what happened to them, accepted it, and joined the campaign for better research and vaccine safety. Yet, this has not uniformly been the case. A good many others remain in the dark, despite dealing with sudden and ongoing mystery illnesses.
These people grope for answers, pinning their symptoms on catch-all explanations like stress or long Covid (a more politically favourable diagnosis than post-vaccine syndrome), or awkwardly straddling the cognitive dissonance arising from the clash between medically recognised post-vaccine side effects, and deeply held faith in the Saviour Vaccines… Brendan and Michelle’s stories offer insight. https://brownstone.org/articles/vaccine-injuries-dont-wake-everyone-up/I still can’t figure out how, but is definitely sickening some people.

ParticipantI’ve been a bit disappointed in some of the criticisms going around about Trump’s tactics and possible lack of awareness concerning Ukraine. I know that analysts have to make a living, they need clicks and viewers, headlines, etc. But really, give the guy some room. Stop waving your arms around at every tweet or comment that doesn’t align with what you think should be done.
I’m reminded of the scene from the movie, Lincoln, where the president is being badgered by a colleague for not taking a direct route to the goal, encouraging Abe to follow his “inner compass.” And what was Lincoln’s response?
“A compass will point to true north from where you’re standing. But it’s got no advice about the swamps and the deserts and chasms that you’ll encounter along the way. If we’re heedless of obstacles and sink in the swamp, what’s the use of knowing true north?”
And what is the Trump administration’s “true north”? To throw off the yoke of globalist control and regain US national sovereignty. How he goes about it is his own business, best kept close to his vest. He can spout whatever he wants to get his enemies spinning in their chairs or sparring at shadows, while he and his team plan their next moves.
Many commenters here have said it better, but I still find it amazing (actually providential) that the Trump of today is much different than the Trump of 2020. He’s had 4 long years, a stolen election and 2 assassination attempts, to rub shoulders with other sovereigntists to get the inside scoop. And the world has had 4 long years of watching the globalists come out of their hiding places to wreak havoc on western culture, watching their WEF Manchurian Candidates steer their respective nations into the Marxist ditch.
The Covid agenda was a giant wake-up call to anyone with half a brain, making the post-covid world radically different than pre-covid, where most were still unaware of what the NWO had in store for them, and those that did were still lashing out at the divide-and-conquer phantoms put before them.
The battle lines are much clearer now, and the troops wiser and better trained. It’s a sure bet that our path to the goal is not going to be a straight line, so let’s not belly-ache so much when Trump takes an unexpected turn, rather than mounting a frontal assault with guns blazing.

ParticipantUkraine War:
Trump may have suspended aid for 90 days, but I see no outrage from the deep state regarding arms being supplied to the Ukraine.
So, obviously it is business as usual for Biden approved arms, to continue flowing into the Ukraine.
Enough arms were likely sent by Biden to supply Ukraine for most of 2025.
The CIA is likely squeezing Nato to suppply more arms to the Ukraine for 2025 too.
That might explain the new suddenly higher Trump 5% limit from 2% for Nato.
Europe now needs to step up and fund the war in Ukraine, to keep the CIA happy.January 23, 2025 at 10:29 pm #180183WES
