René Magritte L’empire des lumières 1949
Magritte never ceases to amaze…exquisite execution IMHO…the light…illumination…
“Zelensky Invokes Pearl Harbor, MLK & 9/11 In Emotional Plea for “Humanitarian No Fly Zone”
“Is this a lot to ask for?”“Please, please start WWIII. Is ending life on earth as we know it for my personal gain too much to ask?”
“Poland Tells Zelensky It’s Seeking Armed NATO ‘Peace Mission’ for Ukraine”
That’s the world these days: two “Peace Invasions” go to war and level the country they’re saving. I don’t know why we haven’t thought of this before.
So…did the U.S. do that chemical weapons attack they’ve been talking about? Hearing about it every day, boys. What’s the hold up? Need to cut some checks for the OPCW? Detrick run out of chemicals? No perfume jars and doorhandles to rub? Or is the top nurse of the top chemical base need to get back from vacation? Time’s a-wasting, red lines to cross and all that.
Would I have had to say these things during the Monroe administration? (Probably.)
Powell: well let’s see, we have 100% chance of recession (oil prices) and Powell is raising rates! How’s that your Keynesianism? Or is it anti-Keynesianism, like they’ve been since John Maynard died in ’46? So let’s review: we’ve had a raging, excellent, most perfect economy. Under Trump, with highest employment, specifically among minorities, and under Biden, ‘cause, Biden. (They are number-jerking the end of lockdown) Dow 36,000. Inflation rising. And? Mr. Powell? Nothing. Nada. Zip. Mega-monster, panic, Armageddon, emergency, TEOTWAWKI-level 100%, double-red line, smoke on the tires $100-bil-a-month stimulus. Through the re-open, inflation, mega job openings? Redline, smokin’ coke all night, eyes wide, pupils dilated stimulus.
Inflation rises 800%? Meh. Maybe later we’ll raise. Let’s not be hasty.
Oil doubles? Gas 4-fold? Guaranteed recession, worse than ‘08, perhaps worse than 1930?
Man the towers! Raise the rates! We’ve got to crush this economy RIGHT NOW!!! (With .25 rate increase, only 28x more hikes to catch up. If inflation rises 3%/mo, only 160 rate hikes behind by next year.)
Thanks Jerome. Thanks. What do I say? What did I say about Biden forcing Russia, Jerome calling a meeting a day before Russia? What to I say about lying, thieving, murdering weasels? “It’s not whether you win or lose, but where you place the blame.” 800% rise in prices, recorded LAST month, through February? Blame Putin. He had a time machine, and went BACK IN TIME, and raised those prices on us, in January. That’s what Joy Reid says, and I’m sticking to it.
Since Brawdo has what plants crave, the people will 100% believe it. And all it took was the murder of everybody in Ukraine. So worth it! If only we had TWO Ukraines! We tried to get Poland, but they wouldn’t bite. And this is the world I’m born into.
They’re also posting Azov flags on their Twitter avatars, and Nazi shirts and mugs are top sellers on Amazon. So if the Canadian Truckers wear THOSE flags, can they protest Justin? Which Nazis are the good Nazis again? Which ethnic cleansing are we supporting today?
“Russia Fails To Pay Scheduled Interest…” Because the U.S. closed all their banks. Fly to Moscow, they have your money waiting. Yet this is still considered a RUSSIAN default. Because: RussiaRussiaRussia. It’s not funny anymore, and I don’t think they’re laughing.
I’m not laughing as Biden begins to send serious hardware to Kiev that Russia will blow to smithereens along with everyone in the truck. Again: How are we not at war with Russia?
“Soros Worries About Putin-Xi Partnership, Hopes They Can Be Stopped “Before They Destroy
Our CivilizationSoros’ fortune and his master plan for a Great Reset of Neo-Feudalism.”I guess he doesn’t watch many movies. “No! This can’t be happening! It’s Impossible!!!”
“‘Ukraine received powerful support of our American friends. I’m thankful to President Biden for it.”
Apparently we are a Ukrainian ally and have declared war on Russia? Biden personally?
“Ukraine as a whole has a well-oiled information warfare division.”
Yes, like all their information, satellites, communication, the Azovs are using OUR Information Warfare Division. America’s. Or put another way, “We Are All Nazis Now”. That’s why it’s so slick, and is only facing us, in the West. Generally, they are ignoring the real war, containing bullets, in the East. We are winning on Twitter, and winning against the real enemy: Americans who prefer peace.
“Medicine is largely dominated by a small number of very large pharmaceutical companies that compete for market share”
That’s not competition. Creating fake barriers for entry then allowing unlimited verticalization and monopolization through mergers is ANTI-competition. That no one can tell or comments on it anymore demonstrates where we are: monopolies merged with government are normal, universal, and good. If there are problems, we should muddle around the margins and blame PhDs.
“The New Hampshire House is misleading…”
“Allow” them to dispense? Roughly speaking, they are REQUIRED to dispense. The doctor ORDERED it. Pharmacists are not doctors and unless it causes imminent harm cannot just “Doctor” a patient they’ve never met. They just refuse to do their job and are guilty of open medical malpractice. IVM is used for a variety of things, did pharmacists refuse to cure scabies and rosacea? Probably.
Similarly, and for the 1,000th time, doctors prescribe off-label all the time. Like daily. This is how they prescribe Benadryl for sleep for instance, and also how they learn to respond to new diseases. You think they had research for steroid use with Covid? Nope. They gave steroids exactly like IVM because of symptoms, exactly like IVM. There was no “100,000 man massive, funded, double-blind” study on either drug. Except being “off-label” mattered to Pfizer for one drug and not the other. They act like there’s gray area or complication here. They’re just openly breaking the law and don’t care. Then as they don’t care, we don’t care either I guess and let them. But roughly, this is all straight from the Houses of Legislature and the AMA. Like Paul yesterday, we are passing laws because they won’t follow the laws. Huh? And nobody goes to jail.
“ Woman Died from Rare Vaccine Side-effect (BBC)”
That they had to print the article in the BBC means it wasn’t so rare. This isn’t “Man Bites Dog”, this is “Child has rare leukemia.” Those articles are never printed. Until now. When “fluffing pillows” can cause heart failure.
“the rights and freedoms that “pandemic planning” reduced to nothingness.”
You are a victim? You did nothing? Planners gonna plan. You need to enforce your rights. YOU. Not the gumment. Everything Daddy Government did was illegal. All of it. And here they did it without even passing a law. It’s going to take more than complaining to get them to follow it again. They need to be scared to death of you, the People, and cry themselves to sleep every night worrying you might get upset.
“a manageable epidemic could move toward catastrophe.”
Looks like they described exactly what not to do, what would have the worst outcome, then went and intentionally did it. What more do you need to see? A road map and a written invitation? You’re Fired. Until we can bring the charges that will put you in prison. Civil Rights abuses at a minimum, but craven disregard for human life is a given, and a crime. In your own words, with your own strategy you said this.
“the Supreme Court refused to hear Assange’s appeal on the basis that there was “no arguable point of law.”
Same as above. Everything the government says and does is illegal. They don’t care. They won’t care until you make them care. With more pain than they can stand.
“Those two positions would be held at the same time,” DoJ.
Yes, and if you’re a friend, we enforce one position, and if an enemy, we use the other. Simple! A Nation of Laws. SO many laws we pick and choose which ones to enforce! Just ask USSC.

“Scientific progress* is thwarted by the ownership of data and …. does not share raw data with the academic research community.”
That right there is the crux of the problem. I didn’t realize until a Malone interview that “peer reviewed” only meant the study itself was reviewed – that reviewers didn’t have access to the raw data.
That means that nothing, absolutely nothing, is being or ever has been peer reviewed. F*ck these lying monsters. There are no words left to describe how twisted this system is. No fix. Let it crumble. The sooner, the better.
*Scientific progress is actually thwarted because humans are dumber than a box of rocks, but that’s a different discussion.
I can’t get into my email account and may need to create another. I structured this in article form, perhaps it’s worth posting separately:
The West Is at War with Itself.
Coverage of the war in Ukraine is very spotty and polarized. The news has been shut off, universally censored in the West, and expelled within Russia and Ukraine. Nevertheless there has been much commentary on it, from The Atlantic, “Foreign Affairs”, CNN, BBC, as well as Wall Street and London traders, geopolitical historians and commentators, and others, but like birds, all following a similar flock with a similar turn.
Robert Gore is one such article, and better than most, covering Alistair MacLeod’s “Inside and Outside Money”, the mentally-ill childishness of the West, and that regardless of events right now, the outcome is certainly more chaos. https://straightlinelogic.com/2022/03/16/bonfire-of-the-governments-by-robert-gore/
What’s interesting to me with even smart writers like Gore is that they can’t see the most fundamental background shift. To me, this takes some reading, but these authors have all done the reading and are better informed than myself. It’s not like they’re older or younger, and it’s not that they don’t know it. I’m sure in other articles they describe the fragility of Western Banking, debt-printing system. He does so to some extent within the article.
Yet somehow Gore – and all the other articles I’ve read these last 4 weeks – miss the most basic item. They believe “Putin made a mistake” and this is not just knee-jerk propaganda, it’s “Our War”, “Ukraine is the 51st State” “Putin is bad M’kay” stuff. They really believe it. Either because of the West’s response, or because they see the West promising to Mujaheddin Ukraine with unlimited weapons and rubbing their fists in glee.
That certainly is the plan, and a good one. It worked in Afghanistan 40 years ago, even as it never worked at all in Syria last year. These NeoCons behind Nuland and Kegan are now all so old they probably didn’t notice and are proceeding anyway. However, none of their plans in Ukraine will happen for very simple reasons. In addition, Putin knows that was their plan for 10-20 years, as well as to take Ukraine and use it to attack and crush Russia going back to the CARTER administration, i.e. Brzezinski. I mean, really? For the love of Christmas, here? That is to say, Putin and the Russian thinkers happily take the West’s open, public, transparent, unchanging plan and figure out what items must be in place to successfully and safely respond to it. And although they are winning in Ukraine (what else? They have an army 3x their size) that’s not the Russian true field of battle. Nor the tactics the West expected. I don’t know why this is so hard to understand.
Normally, I’d say Russia thinks differently. They are half Eastern, half Western they say, and when interacting with Europe LOOK like a Europeans, but then respond softly and go around. This makes them appear weak to us even as they talk tough. Maybe that’s why we constantly think they’re bluffing, the way we would, when really Russia could hardly be more straightforward if they tried. Indeed Lavrov’s top complaint in Turkey last week, but going back years now is that he’s telling them directly how things are and what will happen and like goldfish the West, the media, forget a second later and cannot hear, reporting a different, unrelated thing they fabricated, writing what “he thinks” and “what he meant to do” using their Putin-telepathy.
It’s like this: Russia is going to crush the whole West. But that’s not Russia’s fault: the entire West is so rotten it’s barely been standing for decades now, and certainly since ’08. If not; well, Russia dies. They know this. But Russia will not die because they have been patient and careful and picked a time where the West is badly over leveraged and incredibly past their time. So yes, the West spent billions, possibly trillions at this point to subvert Ukraine and Russia had to respond to them, the West’s armed invasion and takeover of Ukraine, and that’s fine. It’s a ship you can see coming a mile away.
“Russia responds” means the West’s propaganda will kick in and they will want to start WWIII on them, a total war which Russia probably cannot survive the combined forces of all NATO countries worldwide. So that’s a consideration, and unlike the West, who wants war anyway? Like Britain, Russia essentially has one city, Moscow, and a war will erase it, so there is no reason to take that path.
Russia is not fighting a “war” they are not “fighting” in Ukraine, it’s merely a minor police action, and that’s the first of things the West doesn’t understand. They think all Russian attention is on Kiev. They wanted all Russian attention and invasion locked in Kiev, and the West was depending on all the camera shots of destruction and dead civilians. I don’t think Russia even wants Kiev, or they would make at least some attempt to approach it. 500 civilians killed I’m hearing? THAT’S NOT A WAR. It’s hardly a police action. Maybe they don’t understand war material in the 21st century, but Russia could have leveled Kiev an the other cities in under 30 minutes including all their 5 million people if they wanted. Russia’s attention is on the real war.
As the WHOLE WEST, that is, the Anglos running NATO, are fully engaged in attacking Russia and economically conquering it, as Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi say daily “Our War”, to safely stop the war Russia can only attack and disable the WHOLE WEST and NATO in return. Nothing else will do. It’s possible to detente at some point, freeze the conflict, but if the West does not fall, Russia is in danger and will be overrun. So they have to attack the West, a combined UK, Germany, Europe, and America. It appears they do not intend to do this using sabotage, attacks on rails and substations, EMPs. That would merely anger the U.S. for instance and galvanize a deeply reluctant population to support the war no one wants. It’s off the table. Instead, they are merely going around the whole West, in Eastern style.
What is the West? As Gore says, it’s a CONSUMER. Of everything. They print debt and consume things, net producing nothing. So Russia is passively embargoing them. That’s it. And with some help from China, that’s the whole plan. And it’s worse than that, Russia isn’t even trying to embargo the West. There is no need; the West is using the war to embargo themselves. This is the highest moral good, as Russia can remain completely clean of the matter, being the good guys, offering and having tried everything they could. When wheat, fertilizer, oil, metals, electric, are all shut off across Europe, citizens will ask their governments what happened. Those governments will point to Russia, but it will be no use: it will be plain to see that Russia was selling these life-giving goods to Europeans, and is still trying to sell them to Europe now. It was the European LEADERS, the bankers, billionaires, who refused to BUY them. This will not wash with a cold, hungry public.
The West is also LEVERAGED. In fact that is the key takeaway from the West, their power, and their Central Banks. They can win wars because they can produce more “gold”, that is, more “money” to throw at an ongoing conflict. But leverage goes both ways. On the way up, 10:1 gets you ten wins for a single ante, a golden goose. On the way down however, the removal of a single ante, one underlying asset, leads to a 10-fold loss. And the West is leveraged not 10:1 but 300:1 and more as Jeffrey Christian points out in a single market such as gold. But this is true as mortgages become MBS as in ‘08, in bond derivatives, in stock market margin levels, in credit cards, car loans, and everywhere else, right down to borrowing, that is, “leveraging,” to buy a cheeseburger and fries in Muncie, Indiana.
What is leverage? To borrow more than the value of your collateral. What is collateral? Real Stuff. But the West doesn’t make Real Stuff. The Real Stuff comes from others, and to an outsized level, from Russia. To a great extent, Russia is the collateral for the West. The prosperity of Germany, France, BP, Tesla’s Gigafactories, rest on Russian oil, gas, and aluminum. No gas or aluminum, no Gigafactory. No Gigafactory, no $1 Trillion dollar market cap. No $1T market cap, no 36,000 Dow. Poof. And that’s true of Volkswagen, Bosch, Bayer, Jaguar, and the banks that rest on them: DeutscheBank, Credit Suisse, HSBC, Lloyd’s. And the loss of those markets, companies, banks, would not leave New York standing. Morgan can hardly prosper if London, Hamburg and the commodity exchanges fail and stop trading as the LME did this week. They cannot make margins on the Russian banks and Russian trade they are no longer facilitating. They too will fall into a spiral of counter-leverage.
What is leverage? Let’s say the leverage at 300:1 makes NY and London appear 300x stronger than they actually are. So the end of that leverage makes them 300x weaker than they appear at present. And as we’ve said the bank leverage is what makes them able to field armies and pay for wars. So the end of leverage makes them UNable to field armies and pay for wars. Especially when they themselves refuse to receive all the raw commodity supplies that let them do so. In this structure they are planning to maintain a conflict with no coal, oil, gas, steel, aluminum, titanium, uranium, palladium, neon, and so on.
So what is Russia doing? Like all colonies, they are the raw material producer to the Imperium; the Empire, and the Empire’s Army. If, like America, they wish to rebel against that Empire, they will shut off the raw materials to the Empire, who then cannot run an effective army.
This is why they behave as they do. They must go to Ukraine as Biden said in 1994, and as Biden insured with arms, arranged with his policy, and permitted in his words, saying as they did in Kuwait, a small incursion would not be met with force. And should the world remain as it does today, indeed the West would keep the conflict running indefinitely, bleed all of Russia, and kill all the Slavs, of which there are already too few.
But the world will NOT remain as it does today. In withdrawing, Russia has erased the collateral for the entire West and their banking system. As that echoes through the Western financial system there will be great disorder and disruptive bank and corporate failures. Likewise, they will not have commodities to re-build their own structure as they once did in 1930, or not for a long time. The West has positioned themselves to refuse to buy from Russia, come what may.
For their part, and being a small country, Russia could not have withstood this lack of commerce, or at the least would have grown a lot weaker, too weak to resist more Western forays into their territory and sphere of influence. That is what took so long. But now, they will not have such a loss of commerce, as they merely sell all the same goods to China, weakening the West even more.
You see, if Europe doesn’t want, won’t accept raw goods, they get weaker of course. And also the opposite, where if China DOES get them, and at an enormous discount to today’s disruptive prices, obviously China will grow far stronger. How can Europe compete with $3,000 aluminum – or having no aluminum – when aluminum in China is $2,000? They already couldn’t compete before. How can Germany fill their factories with employees eating $20 wheat when China is well-fed and eating wheat at $9?
It’s the West that is going to bleed with the Mujaheddin, not Russia.
Going back to Ukraine, if the West wins, all is lost, nothing matters. However, if the West weakens due to worldwide shortages, hardships, banking failures, corporate bankruptcies, currency collapses, then they cannot arm Ukraine as they believe. They won’t have the time, money, or attention to do so. American soldiers will have to return home on a city bus, and not from palatial airfields. In any case, the 100,000 men America has there will be of little use with no food, no supplies, and no supply chain to back them. And if this is so, Ukraine will become Russian, or at least solidly within the Russian sphere of influence again, because will Ukrainians wish to eat, grow crops, have aluminum? Yes, and Russia will look prosperous compared to London at that time, with access to all Chinese goods while the West will not.
So why would you destroy Ukraine? Or even their people? It’s your own country, and your own people.
This is what the West doesn’t understand, as we are required to have a blitzkrieg, a Schwarzkopf rush to the great capital, a surrounding army destroying radio, electric, roads, water. Why would Russia ever do that? To win, they will have to “own” Ukraine or be merged with them in some way and would simply have to rebuild it. Same with the people. You need Ukrainians to be for Russia, not against it. So killing civilians – or even the valuable army – is strictly counter-productive. If it were possible, they would be best to harm nothing and kill no one, “The Art of War” writ large, but of course in war that is not possible. However, 500 civilian deaths in 4 weeks of modern war is as close as possible to killing no one, and demonstrates their goals and values.
This is the cause for the West to say Russia is “bogged down”, they’re losing. They’re not losing, they’re winning. They are saving the lives of fellow Russians, brother Slavs, while nevertheless gaining control of the country. And this without hardship, as the power is on in Kiev and elsewhere, and people are driving, shopping, and going to work. No unnecessary Ukrainians have been inconvenienced. The trains are running on time to Poland and elsewhere. Why would taking a fully intact country be considered a “loss”?
This is the situation we find ourselves in, and the Russians have been very clear about it. About their needs, their goals, their approach.
The West is being boycotted. They have embargoed themselves. They are a stark minority on planet earth, taking too much and making too little. The embargo they have placed on themselves will collapse their banking and financial system even as their manufacturers cannot function when lacking raw materials. They cannot rebuild for many years and will go hungry. They cannot prosecute a war in this state, and in any case the people are not in favor of it and will not let them. But there is good news! The West can behave honestly, buy from Russia again, and end their unnecessary war and their own hardship at any time. Both the realization, and the reversal may take some years however, and we’ve only just begun.
This is what Russia is doing, and why they aren’t worried about Ukraine.
“The lackadaisical U.S. “de-Nazification” of its sector of occupied Germany was accompanied by an organized brain drain of Germans who could be useful to the United States..”
As I’ve said in previous posts, the US didn’t ‘defeat’ Nazi Germany, they absorbed them.
The above sound bite reflects this.
Reiner Fuellmich, no less, has stated in numerous videos that the German Judaical system is so utterly and thoroughly corrupt to this day that there is absolutely no chance in Hell that you will get any type of justice whatsoever regarding Covid and vaccine injury and death and criminal fraud from the German justice system.
German judges are the same maggots chewing on the soul of humanity that they were in the Nazi era.
The Allies and the US in particular left the utterly despicable Nazi judges and Nazi prosecutors and many of the Nazi lawyers in place after the war and the judicial system itself was spared any real attention or prosecution at Nuremberg.
Had I been in charge I would have eviscerated the entire German judiciary and started from scratch. Same goes for the Nazi police of the time. Not a brick would have been standing had I been calling the shots.
Leaving the monstrous German ‘legal’ system in place in 1945 made it a lot easier for the US to coverup and destroy evidence of companies like IBM providing their punch card machines that kept keeping track of the people in the concentration camps. Those IBM punch card machines were the ‘digital passports’ of their day. And German judges rubber stamps the process with cowardly corrupt gusto.There are many other US corporations that facilitated the Nazi war machine that were never prosecuted, by design it seems.
Germany’s present judiciary system is the direct devolution of that Nazi ‘legal’ system.
Present day German Oligarchs that are forcing Germany to commit suicide by ‘going green’ and cheering on the shutoff of Russia energy to German industry and society. They are the direct descendants of the same industrial mobsters of the Nazi era.
Mission Accomplished to them, the Germans will be eating cat food under autobahn overpasses in cardboard boxes before long. Deutschland über alles.
“The thalidomide scandal was one of the worst in German post-war history: Thousands of children were born with malformations as a result of the sleeping pill.”
This was allowed by the German judicial system, good luck with that mRNA RICO case.
@ Dr. D
Your piece, “The West is at War with Itself” is the best synopsis of the Ukrainian madness that I have seen so far.
Here is Gonzalo Lira speaking from the Ukraine
He picked five topics, not overtly connected, but covers some of Dr D’s points
Well worth the time
A requiem for free will (part one)

Why bother, then?And yet, we can’t help ourselves.
So keep on building, you silly fools,
so other poor souls can keep on erasing.”Dr. D
My executive summary
This is what Russia is doing, and why they aren’t worried about Ukraine.
———–
Russia invasion of Ukraine has stalled.1. First, the invasion used, on the first day, modern missiles, and smart bombs to destroy all air opposition and set up air superiority.
2. Second wave, Russia took their WWII museum war machines and lined them up for miles and used their WWII artillery to make a siege of some cities.
3. Presently, we are witnessing WWI trench warfare with dumb bombs
4. What is implied, is that tomorrow, there will be a hoards of people, with clubs, and body armor, attacking each other.
5. Finally, we will see Peace. Russian and the west insulting each other from a safe distance of 6 feet.
———–I found the news of Pfizer being de-listed interesting, so I had a look at the SEC form 25 that is linked in the twitter thread.
It appears that Pfizer applied for de-listing on the NYSE sometime in 2018. The date of Pfizer’s de-listing was 7th March 2022. It takes 90 days for the de-listing to take effect. This means, in around 3 months, Pfizer will have effectively removed its investable assets from the NY stock exchange. Investopedia has further information on the implications of form 25 on businesses.
Due to covid, China is imposing another lockdown.
Will USA respond with more tariffs on the shortage of goods mfg in China.Well that was fast. We’re entering a new age where laws only apply to your political enemies. Buckle up friends.
April fools joke
Tourist travel industry ecstatic.
As of April 01, Refugees from war zones, (Afghanistan, Ukraine), will not need to be tested for covid to come to Canada.
Last year, spring break did not cause a spike in covid hospitalization.
Football season did not cause a spike in covid hospitalization.
However, be careful, waiting in the wings, to attack, Omicron 2.@Roboto
Yes and no. This was politics and i wonder who put Jussie up to it? Did you see how he was screaming after the verdict that he wasn’t suicidal? Me thinks he was scared of being hung in his suicide proof cell while the cameras magically didn’t work at that moment.
re: Pfizer being ‘delisted’
Can someone please help me understand this:
Pfizer’s stock has not been removed — AP
and
Pfizer stock up 1.85% March 17 2022
(I sure hope I did this correctly)
Thanks in advance.@farmer mcgregor
I have no specialist knowledge on the subject, just a laymen’s observation.
The Securities and exchange commission does deal with commodities, bonds and other assets or debt instruments. My suspicion that it may be something more substantial than what the associated press are putting out is that SEC form 25 specifically mentions this action de-lists the company and the company can continue trading in the pink sheets (without reporting requirements) The term “de-listing from the stock exchange” is fairly hard and fast. There is no grey area (for example, a bond or debt instrument would not require that the company delists. That term is all-encompassing).
What do I know? I just checked investopedia again and the opening decription of SEC form 25 states: “is the document a public company must file to delist its securities under rule 12d2-2 of the securities exchange act 1934″
So yes, it could just be the ‘0.25% notes due 2022’ listed on Pfizer’s SEC document as securities and not the entire company listing, as claimed.
0.25% notes eh? Wish i could get me a loan at that rate, sadly all i get are savings accounts that yield even less.
Leverage: Just to add to Dr. D’s accounting of leverage. Ironically the most used collateral for leverage is not cash but US Treasuries! As we all know cash is created out of thin air and then used to buy treasury notes. In many instances you cannot use cash as colladeral! That is correct! Banks will only accept US Treasuy notes as colladeral!
So in many ways today you do not need a real thing, like a commodity, to create colladeral! Just lots of thin air!
I laugh whenever I see a statement saying the Russian invasion is “stalled”!
The Russians said they want to destroy the neo-nazi Ukrainian army.
So do you invade the parts of the Ukraine where the Ukrainian army is not located?
No, you go where the Ukrainian army is, like in the east and south parts of the Ukraine.
The Russians have the entire Ukrainian army surrounded!Then there is the nonsense that the Russians have over extended their supply lines.
Notice that the Russian army has formed a horseshoe in the eastern Ukraine.
That means all Russian forces are within a days round trip drive for their supply trucks.
Clearly this invasion was planned with army logistics in mind!Then there is the default of the London Metals Exchange in nickel, gold, and silver.
So when the casino starts losing, the casino changes the rules to save the casino’s banks!
That is why we saw gold and silver get taken down in the middle of raging inflation and a shooting war! Thanks JPMorgan! I really needed the excitment!Venkayya and his friends might have invented “pandemic planning” of this sort but it did not work.
Here are some links to this Venkayya guy:
https://www.iavi.org/about/board-of-directors/rajeev-venkayya
and
https://www.weforum.org/agenda/authors/rajeev-venkayyaHe is a Gates puppet working with Gates to inject the world with an AIDS vaccine.
He is one of the bad guys and is a danger to you and your family.
I was trying to listen to the guy who said near the end of the video that that volunteering to fight in the Ukraine was a trap. I thought he indicated wounded mercenaries trying to escape to Polandwerebeing removed before the border and not allowed to leave.
I guess so as to not spoil the US narrative that the Ukraine is winning? Wounded mercenaries telling truth to the media wouldn’t be good.
Being hard ofhearing it was hard to follow what he was saying so maybe I got some things wrong?
