Pablo Picasso Portrait of Dora Maar 1943 • Trump Arms Ukraine. Russia Doesn’t Care (Kornev) • Trump’s Tariff Revenues Reach Record Highs (Salga
[See the full post at: Debt Rattle July 17 2025]“Exactly,” Cortes responded, stating that in order for the US-Ukraine partnership to work, Kiev “must become transparent and corruption-free.”
When is Washington planning to become transparent and corruption-free? Fair’s fair, right?
Time to see the world as it is in reality: it ain’t the world your mother told you it was…never was really…
“Trump Sparks Market Chaos: Denies CBS Reports Of Imminent Firing Of ‘Knucklehead’ Powell
What the literal F–, CBS? Trump doesn’t have the POWER to fire Powell. No one does. Only Congress, erasing or reforming the whole Fed institution could do it. JHC I feel like I woke up in a parallel universe like 10x a day now. You can’t just “make S—t up” every moment your air-hole opens, you fools. (saw this repeated again several times later)
“Trump Accuses ‘Shifty Adam Schiff’ Of Mortgage Fraud, Says He ‘Needs To Be Brought To Justice’How long? 20 years? And THIS is what you want him to go down on?
No wonder I’m checked out of everything. Had to shut off John Helmer today, like Trump-telepathy. He knows Trump’s every internal emotional state and Trump is always “scared” “sad” “stupid”, unaware of the existence of Russia and any peace deal, never heard of any Putin, etc. JHC this is the Experts now? What is it about Trump that so uniquely destroys all experts with OBVIOUS BS, totally transparent Game-field psych-out chatter, that normal men lawn-servicing auto-mechanics look like f-ing geniuses compared to Nixon and Helmer, Merisheimer and Mercoulis? THIS IS NOT HARD.
I’m not saying I know what’s going on, but I can tell a game field fake-out and fake insult to throw him off from camera, 1,000 miles away and NONE of these guys can. They think if Trump says “Your mother said Come Again” that he actually and literally believes it and it actually happened, and that Putin thinks so too.
CBS reports that Trump slept with Putin’s mother in a Moscow hotel, and FactCheckers leap into action from Harvard, on Facebook.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, SAVE MY SANITY.
Doomberg: “We can’t make weapons” The Deuce you say? EUROPE can’t make weapons, we have everything to make them in abundance, all they need is to say “Go” and pay people. We don’t.
Doomberg: “Tariffs on Russian allies not to buy Russian oil, just lowers Russian oil proces, changingnothing. Idiot.” Uh, no, Trump gets to tariff anything he feels like, and proves we don’t need the IRS bc we’re already funding the whole budget with tariffs. Reverse that. And if he DOESN’T show that, they WILL reverse it. So it’s a win-win-win, which is pretty accidental for an idiot.
Doomberg: “We had no idea Israel was attacking Iran” dafuq no. There’s no way, nohow. In fact, Trump told them the exact day ending 60-day negotiations, AND warned them to move all their stuff out of the way.
Over. And Over. And Over. And Over. Doomberg: “I can’t believe people write this stuff when it’s entirely untrue.” Yeah, I know the feeling…
Maybe I’m wrong, but it’s so simple to know what’s going on. Just stop PROJECTING YOUR EGO and thinking you know everything. What can’t happen, won’t. When we CAN do something, but never do, like make weapons, that’s the world’s easiest tell. What, no print money and hand trillions to my friends so we can win massive foreign wars and steal their stuff? First time in known world history? Doesn’t this stand out a little, as a fact?
Yeah, so do a lot of the other facts, like Us telling Iran to get clear, then Iran telling us to stand clear, and that’s “A sooper-dooper serious war.” I’m serial right now.
Also for Malthusians: Doomberg: “New record use of Coal. Oil. Gas.” Yeah, because there’s A) a Depression on and B) we’ve entirely run out of oil in like 2005. Yet more is found every minute of every day and the price drops perfectly smoothly, no disruptions. Doomberg same position: “We’re running out of oil,” etc. HOW? Or what evidence would you provide since it’s neither supply nor price?
Checked out of all this. There is no commentary remaining that is NOT this. He’s actually smart, moderate, unbiased,+ and well-grounded person, and manages this and a dozen more in a mere 30min interview.
Yesterday:
“..The basic interpretation of that could be that Trump is giving Russia two months to capture whatever territory it claims belongs to it, then “the hammer” will come down…”Same idea here, same assumptions: We don’t have a “Hammer”. So when 50 days runs out…we do nothing. No one notices. Yes, I agree he’s just saying s—t to keep off Lindsay Graham. But who is Graham? He’s dead in his own district, leaving, what power does he have and where does it come from? Bc people ACT as if retard Graham has power. But it doesn’t come from the people voting, that’s for sure. It looked like he went to K-pop’s Don, and hand-delivered the message from the real head of power in Ukraine, back to Trumper to try to make terms. Remember? Only last month. So the power he draws from is in a bunker in central Ukraine? Who is that, then? No one asks.
“• Federal Judge Takes Control of US Government (Spivak)Must be Wednesday… So anyone planning on stopping them? What was J6 put 4 years solitary for? “Obstructing Government process”? Sounds like this judge, so, equal opportunity.
““The reality right now in Europe is they cannot manufacture the armaments required on the battlefield of Ukraine, or on the battlefield if there is a potential war in Europe.”
Why? And why is it unthinkable they would just buy them from the U.S. like Vanuatu must?
“• The Conflict in Ukraine Is Widening out of Control (Paul Craig Roberts)It does not seem to be. It’s diabolically unchanging. You can’t just say things, Paul, occasionally they have to be true.
“..Kiev asked the US to station nuclear-capable Tomahawk cruise missiles in Ukraine..”
As since Day One, if you’re trying to get Russia to never surrender, not stop until Ukraine ceases to exist, this is the top way to do it. …No, this is not 5D chess, everyone can tell this is 1st order consequence.
“they only learned of their supposed participation when the announcement was made.”
Yes. No parliament in Europe can tolerate openly voting for Ukraine/weapons right now. “Europe” told Trump they were going to do this, he said “Oh really? Great then!” and told the world. Pretending he didn’t know what scam they were trying to run, put over on 20 nations in Europe that aren’t captured like UK, Germany are. Then Trump plays dumb and is like, “What? I thought you guys told me it was all settled!?!?” I dunno, I guess I’m just a simple American over here, not too smart, just like Columbo.
““..it is impossible not to be thankful for Trump. But Trump’s subservience to Israel is dispiriting and shameful..”
It certainly is. But everyone is very sad Trump isn’t adding MORE enemies to fight, while not helping at all with the enemies he’s already fighting. No price is too high when the other guy’s paying!
“Euroclear issues warnings, but at the same time it transfers money to Ukraine.”
BothNeitherAi. The money we do/do not own which we did/did not steal, to pay for the war we do/do not have.
Raul: how is your health? Better, I hope.
DrD. You tagged PCR. He needs to be tagged again. Looks like his analysis is that the war is going slow and expanding so therefor if it wasnt going slow it wouldnt be expanding. Clever. Aside from your point, no its not expanding, the west is going to try to expand regardless of rate. PCR claims if you hit them harder faster they will stop tryng to expand. Yeah. Thats it.

“I don’t want people to think that we’re blowing off the safety signal[s] that many people have described,” said Makary, who was speaking on July 14 on EpochTV’s “American Thought Leaders” in an interview that will be released soon.
“I personally know of people who have been injured by the vaccine. I personally know of friends who have lost a loved one from the mRNA COVID vaccine. So I think it is reasonable at this time to say we want good, solid, definitive data, and the conditional, limited approval of the COVID vaccines is in that framework that we want to see a proper dataset come to us so we can take a good look at that data.”
so,
you know people are dying from the stuff,
yet you approve it
SO YOU CAN GET GOOD DATA!?
wtf!?

• Adam Schiff Faces Federal Criminal Referral Over ‘Mortgage Fraud’ (Margolis)Fannie Mae’s Financial Crimes Division have concluded that Adam Schiff has engaged in a sustained pattern of possible Mortgage Fraud.
These aren’t wild allegations plucked from thin air; the evidence is pretty clear. According to records, Schiff claimed his main residence was a spacious 3,420 square foot home in Maryland, a move that conveniently secured him better mortgage rates — rates designed for people who actually reside in those homes as their principal dwelling. Simultaneously, he grabbed a homeowner’s exemption on a much smaller 650 square foot condo in Burbank, Calif., handing himself a tidy cut of about $7,000 off his tax bill by also insisting that the property was his “primary residence.” Two homes, both allegedly his principal residence, in two different states, reaping benefits from both ends. Is that some kind of bureaucratic miracle? Or a calculated abuse of the system he’s sworn to oversee?copilot says
If you’re looking for an official source or government document related to Fannie Mae’s Financial Crimes Division and the referral involving Senator Adam Schiff, the most direct reference currently available is a letter from FHFA Director William Pulte to the Department of Justice.
This letter reportedly outlines findings from Fannie Mae’s internal investigation and requests further action.
However, this letter itself has not been publicly released on any official government website like FHFA.gov or DOJ.gov.
Most of the information comes from media outlets citing the letter’s contents.
If you’re trying to verify the existence of the Financial Crimes Division or obtain the actual referral document, I’d recommend checking:
– The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) official site
– The Department of Justice (DOJ) website
Neither site currently hosts the document, but they may publish updates if formal proceedings begin.
————–Regardless of whose fault the past is it’s gone now, except insofar as (and to the extent that) the present consists of the sum-total consequences of all that stuff that you and me and others did in the past.
That part of it (the past part of it) absolutely can not be changed now. You are stuck with things being precisely as they are right now in this very moment, and then working your way forward from there.
The funny part is that you can easily visualize how things are going to turn out in the near and distant future based on how they are this present moment, and if they keep following current trends and keep on going like they are now.
The funniest part of all is that it requires a really dry sense of humor to appreciate the joke, which I seem to have, so the joke’s on me (or us, if you’re one of those involuntary prophets too, which I think most people are).
You absolutely do know what you have to do next in order to cause a future that’s survivably comfortable enough for you to endure. You just don’t want to do it.
Now that’s funny.
The Senate passed a $9 billion rescissions package backed by the White House—targeting the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), which partially funds National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS)—in a 51-48 vote in the early morning hours of Thursday.
Despite opposition from two Republicans—Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski—most GOP senators supported the bill, which now heads to the House for a final vote by Friday. The measure was approved in a 51-48 vote at 2:30 a.m. after voting for more than 12 hours on amendments.
The bill asks lawmakers to claw back $7.9 billion in funding from foreign-aid programs via USAID, as well as rescind $1.1 billion from left-leaning public broadcasters NPR and PBS, defunding them for the next two fiscal years.
Now the bill returns to the House for final approval, where it must pass by Friday under the budget rules Republicans are using to move the package without Democratic votes. If successful, it will head to President Trump’s desk shortly thereafter.
The win is more symbolic than substantive. It serves as a small tangible result of President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) effort to defund the bloated federal government. However, the Trump administration must codify more DOGE cuts into law to avoid upsetting the base.
“It’s a small but important step toward fiscal sanity that we all should be able to agree is long overdue,” Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) said ahead of the final vote earlier this morning.
Not codifying more DOGE cuts at this point is madness, especially considering the time Elon Musk and others have put into the initiative, and the relentless work of DOGE teams to root out waste and fraud across the federal government. It’s time to lock in more cuts and finish the job of draining the swamp of radical leftists.

As of now, the Federal Reserve has maintained the federal funds rate in the range of 4.25% to 4.50%. This decision comes amid ongoing discussions about the impact of tariffs and inflation on the economy. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has indicated that the central bank would have likely cut rates by now if not for these external pressures, particularly from tariffs imposed by the Trump administration.

i think the point of the “tariffs” (or at least the blahblah of such)
is
to destroy small businesses.Well, after Covid was used as an excuse to shut down virtually every small retail businesses in the country and crush half of them while shuttling their former customers off to the corporate big box stores, can there be any doubt?
Never underestimate the viciousness of your overlords. Their rules apply to you. For them, absolutely nothing is off the table.
The current Human civilization, in a nutshell:
Earth civilization in the year 2025 (plus or minus a few millennia) compels the labor of several billions of people and then distributes the proceeds among them. Under this system some people produce more than they are paid for and some people produce less [a lot less] than they get paid for. Participation is mandatory, not voluntary. As an absolute minimum at least half (and more probably two thirds) of the people in this inescapably mandated system are compelled by force and deception to produce more than they are paid for, so that a tiny minority can be paid princely sums for producing nothing of any value at all.
That system is starting to correct itself, and the tiny minority of parasitic “elites” who have been running the show up til now are doing everything in their usurped power to stop that from happening. I say usurped power because they have no power of their own. They hire their stealing and killing done, and there has historically been no shortage of thugs-for-hire to actually go out into the street (or corporate board room) to do the hands-on stealing and killing for them.
“Systems” like that (“civilizations” like that) don’t last long because they are inherently false and thus unworkable in any long haul. They are designed in such a way that they must eventually break and fail.
In short, stealing and killing is not a good foundational principle upon which to predicate a civilization with staying power.
Therefore, we are now in the business of taking the bad old one apart and replacing it with one that works. For starters, no more “free pass” for psychopathic criminal “elites”. If that means collapse of the so-called government then, Oh well, c’est la vie.
Now the United States relationship with Israel makes sense. Talk about a slick and self-regenerating operation. Satan himself could not have planned and executed a smoother caper. The profits have been spectacular and all that it cost any of them was their soul forever.

Facts on Epstein.
Mission Inscrutable https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/mission-inscrutable
“Your mission, Mr. Phelps, should you choose to accept it, is to impersonate Jeffrey Epstein for a few minutes.”
It seems much less important than news of genocide and proxy war against the world’s foremost nuclear power, but the relationships of Jeffrey Epstein with global elite “movers and shakers” may still be pivotal in world events.
Epstein might not be dead, as I said from the outset.
Ghislaine Maxwell has given an interview, the video of which is paywalled (so I skipped it), wherein she reportedly asserts that Jeff is alive and hard-at-work, managing the same accounts as he did before, which supports the apparent power of the machine he serves.
Trump is calling MAGA artillery strikes onto his own position by pretending that nothing is going on with the Epstein case, thus keeping it in the news, inviting Democrats and MAGA Republicans to denounce him and investigate it further themselves.
Trump’s “protesting too much” may be one way of keeping a deal, and making it go bad, anyway. We may soon know more.

Second Israeli ultra-Orthodox party to quit government in blow to Netanyahu
A key partner in Benjamin Netanyahu’s government says it is quitting, dealing a major blow to the Israeli prime minister that could leave him heading a minority coalition in parliament.
The ultra-Orthodox Shas party said on Wednesday that it was leaving the cabinet in protest against lawmakers’ failure to guarantee future exemption from military conscription for religious students. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/7/16/israeli-ultra-orthodox-party-quits-government-as-netanyahu-loses-majority Israel Transfers Important West Bank Mosque to Settler Control: Ibrahimi Mosque was site of 1994 massacre
The Palestinian Foreign Ministry referred to it as a flagrant violation of international law and urged UNESCO to intervene before it led to “grave repercussions.” This is the first change since 1994, when Israel changed control of the mosque to grant 63% to Jewish worshipers and only 37% to Muslims.
That change, enhancing Jewish control over the mosque site, came immediately following a 1994 massacre, when Jewish-American settler Baruch Goldstein entered the Muslim side in an Israeli military uniform with a gun and opened fire on worshipers, killing 29 and wounding 125 others.
The massacre was roundly condemned by Israelis at the time, though Goldstein has subsequently been lionized by some of the more violent settler groups, and indeed his tomb has itself become a site for pilgrimage by some settler on Purim, because that was the holiday during which the massacre took place.
Itamar Ben Gvir, the current Israeli National Security Minister, is one such massacre enthusiast, and appeared in a video praising Goldstein while calling for more massacres of Palestinians. https://news.antiwar.com/2025/07/16/israel-transfers-important-west-bank-mosque-to-settler-control/Starvation among kids in Gaza reaches record levels, humanitarian chiefs tell UN Security Council https://www.arabnews.com/node/2608353/middle-east

Paul Craig Roberts, US Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Tries to Stop Washington’s Enabling of Israeli Aggression
Marjorie Greene has done several things that members of the US House and Senate are trained not to do. She acknowledged Israel’s possession of nuclear weapons. Members of the US government are not supposed to acknowledge Israel’s nuclear weapons, because the Symington Amendment forbids aid to governments that enrich weapons grade uranium and produce nuclear weapons outside of International Atomic Energy Agency controls. The Israeli controlled US government avoids the Symington law by refusing to acknowledge the fact that Israel has acquired, with Washington’s assistance, nuclear weapons totally outside the IAEA controls. US Rep. Greene also points out the incongruity of Israel armed with nuclear weapons needing American military aid. https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2025/07/16/us-rep-marjorie-taylor-greene-should-expect-an-assassination-attempt-by-mossad/ Israeli army stole donkeys from Gaza; transported them to France

Russia Rejects Trump’s Ultimatum on Ukraine
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov rejected U.S. President Donald Trump’s 50-day ultimatum to agree to an Ukraine ceasefire, dismissing the threat of “severe tariffs” as unacceptable.
Ryabkov emphasized that Moscow favors a diplomatic resolution to the Ukraine conflict and is ready to negotiate. “However, if this is not met with a proper response, if we cannot reach our set goals through diplomacy, then the special military operation will go on,” he continued.
“We expect Washington and NATO to take this seriously,” Ryabkov stressed, pointing out that his country’s position is unshakable. https://www.telesurenglish.net/russia-rejects-trumps-ultimatum-on-ukraine/ Why European countries are massively refusing to purchase American weapons for Ukraine
Europe continues to demonstrate growing unwillingness to pay for American arms supplies to Ukraine. Following the recent refusal of the Czech Republic, Italy and France have taken a similar position. Earlier, Poland and Hungary made a similar decision. Thus, of all the major European countries, only Germany and the Netherlands have expressed support for the American defense industry at their own expense.
According to European diplomatic sources, the refusal of France and Italy is due not only to economic considerations, but also strategic ones. Both countries have their own developed defense industry and express dissatisfaction with the dominance of American weapons in the framework of initiatives to create a European air defense system. This issue became especially acute after a number of EU countries refused to purchase the French-Italian SAMP/T complex in favor of the American Patriot systems. https://en.topcor.ru/62117-pochemu-strany-evropy-massovo-otkazyvajutsja-ot-zakupki-amerikanskogo-oruzhija-dlja-ukrainy.htmlPoland presents compelling evidence of theft of Western aid by Zelensky and his team https://en.topcor.ru/62116-v-polshe-priveli-ubeditelnye-dokazatelstva-razvorovyvanija-zapadnoj-pomoschi-zelenskim-i-ego-komandoj.html
Gilbert Doctorow thinks John Helmer is the one with dementia, not Trump: THREE RATIONAL CALCULATIONS BY TRUMP’S MEN THAT THEY CAN WIN THEIR WAR AGAINST RUSSIA, OR ESCAPE VOTER BLAME IF THEY LOSE IT
In the neurological and psychiatric evidence that has been accumulating about Trump over many years, there is the medical history of Alzheimer’s Disease which runs in his family: his father was first diagnosed at age 86 and died at 93; his older sister died of it, aged 86; and at least one cousin died of the same, aged 84. Since the President has just turned 79, there is reason to anticipate similar onset of symptoms and cause of death for him.
Trump thinks this himself, according to Mary Trump, a clinical psychologist and the President’s niece. She has published a case history of the President in 2020 which Trump’s lawyers failed to suppress in court. Last week, she published a new symptom of what she calls the acceleration in Trump’s cognitive decline: he cannot tie his own shoe laces. https://johnhelmer.net/three-rational-calculations-by-trumps-men-that-they-can-win-their-war-against-russia-or-escape-voter-blame-if-they-lose-it/India won’t give up cheap Russian oil, and Trump needs India against China.

Bayer allocated $9 Billion to get-protected. Would $20 million help your family out? Meryl Nass MD, Let me explain exactly what is going on with Bayer’s effort to enact a wide-ranging pesticide liability shield in the US. And how you can truly help
CEO Anderson built a six-pronged strategy (6 separate methods to rid themselves of liability) by hook or by crook. His boldest move is to attempt to get legislation enacted by Congress that would prevent warnings from being added to labels for ALL pesticides, and disallow lawsuits for failure to warn. He also brought similar bills into state courts, and Georgia and North Dakota have already enacted them! https://merylnass.substack.com/p/let-me-explain-exactly-what-is-going Meryl Nass MD, Chemical industry is going for another shield for PFAS in sewage sludge (the biosolids in your fertilizer) in the same Appropriations bill.

Healing PTSD, inducing Neuro-regeneration, remodeling, and arrhythmias: RFK Jr. And Other Trump Officials Embrace Psychedelics After FDA Setback
Marcus Capone struggled with anger, insomnia and mood swings after 13 years as a Navy Seal. In 2017, at the urging of his wife Amber, he agreed to try ibogaine as a last resort. He described his first ibogaine session as “a complete purge of everything.”
“But afterward I felt the weight just completely off my shoulders,” he said. “No more anxiety, no more depression, life made sense all of a sudden.” https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/rfk-jr-and-other-trump-officials-embrace-psychedelics-after-fda-setback The EU’s War on Farmers
(Wednesday) This afternoon, farmers from all over the European Union met outside the European Parliament to march on the Berlaymont, the European Commission’s HQ. Organised by COPA-COGECA, the umbrella body for 22 million European farmers, the demonstration should by all rights be a wake-up call for Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. The unions will hand over a petition signed by 6,335 organisations, along with a symbolic pair of boots, in protest of the EU’s plans to carve up the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and cut farming subsidies.
The budget, announced today, includes folding CAP into a single national spending envelope and shrinking subsidies by 20-25%—that’s a cut of between €80 and €100 billion in real terms. It also proposes a €100,000 cap on the payment any one farm can receive and gives cash-strapped member states leeway to raid the farmers’ pot for other priorities, such as defence and industrial policy. https://europeanconservative.com/articles/commentary/the-eus-war-on-farmers/Kyle Young,first notes their tricky use of words: How the Trump Administration is Leveraging Geoengineering to Implement a Carbon Trading Scam https://secularheretic.substack.com/p/how-the-trump-administration-is-leveraging
