[See the full post at: Debt Rattle March 23 3022]March 23, 2022 at 11:43 am #104760Dr. DParticipantRaboBank: “Yes, I’m talking about price controls, rationing, and barter, countertrade, and offsetting. Yes, I’m serious. No, traditional balance-sheet analysts are not considering this.”
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/rabobank-we-are-seeing-struggle-new-world-orderPrice controls = endless shortages. No Capitalism.
“Yet if we are seeing a struggle for a new world order,”– RaboBank. He means in currency. However, Biden just re-iterated he’s trying to start WWIII for the New World Order. “…we are at an inflection point… there’s gonna be a new world order out there and we’ve got to lead it…” Of course no one believes him, because: I dunno. Denial when he tells you directly? Because everything else he says is a lie? So when he tells you, it’s not true. When he doesn’t tell you, it is true. So we just make things up here, project whatever we want? A: Yes. Reality doesn’t matter, has no effect on anything? A: Yes.
Rabobank ends with “But not if the world order is being restructured. We are talking about sanctions, tariffs, price controls, rationing, and of barter, countertrade, and offsetting: don’t tell me capital controls can’t be part of that hypothetical package if that is what is required to maintain leadership of the free world.”
Who would want to be “Leader of the Free World”? And why? Isn’t that an Empire, and against everything America stands for?
“GOP-Led Maryland and Georgia Suspend Gas Taxes as Democrats Ironically Embrace Similar Federal Cuts”
Does that mean low gas prices are good for people and Democrats now? Low TAXES are a good thing now? Not gloating here, my question is, “Okay, now what do you do about the enormous REVENUE hole?” You weren’t bankrupt 100x over already, ye states?
Reality optional: Nothing we do has cause and effect. No consequences! It’s all just random where nothing is my fault!
“Bill Barr: Joe Biden “Lied to the American People” about Hunter’s Laptop”
And Barr was in charge for the whole year the FBI had the laptop, and during the time Congress was impeaching for Ukraine while not presenting the material evidence on the laptop. Cheeky monkey. Shouldn’t you go arrest yourself now?
“NATO to Draft Statement Warning China against Aiding Moscow”
These guys seem to have a weird delusion they’re in charge of something.
“Biden Meets with CEOs to Discuss Russian Invasion of Ukraine, Price Increases”
Joe meets with his real owners, who are now corporations but prosecuting a foreign war at the expense of their business, profits, and shareholders. #Capitalism! Yes, that is a legally removable action; no one will remove the Directors involved. They also make up an interlocking 80% of the US market cap.
Fox: What is this nonsense? We’re talking about Ukraine and they want to discuss emotional, pejorative non-words like “Hero”? JHC, we can’t define “Hero” on a normal day. If a girl goes into a burning house to save her cat, is she a hero? Or an idiot? If a cop makes a traffic stop and gets shot at, is he then a hero? Or a victim? Do people not know how stupid and useless they sound? What’s the progress in bringing up unactionable navel-gazing irrelevancies like this when there’s a war on?
This is why Lavrov and Putin refuse to meet until the other side can be made to be serious people. That could take lifetimes.
So heroes stash billions of their desperately-poor nation’s money in Panama now?
But Nawaz has a point: the original Nazis, that is Hitler and his party, were fighting for “Democracy” as well. Al was democratically elected. The people supported his platform.
“Ukraine’s Propaganda War: Int’l PR Firms, DC Lobbyists and CIA Cutouts (MPN)”
How are we not at war with Russia? Congressmen said – breathless – there are Russians, RUSSIANS I tells ya! In Ukraine! Yes the Wagner private security group. So we should kill them there, and worldwide. When you say “We”, Congressman, you mean “The United States, officially” needs to enter Ukraine and kill Russian citizens? Again, how are we not at war? Because #OppositeLand. And people both believe we are Ukraine, and we are different from them, it’s our war but their war, and we are at war on behalf of Ukraine, and we are not at war at all, but Ukraine is going it alone.
All things are true! But also false! This is what you can expect from a nation that can’t tell men from women. There are no rules, no definitions, no order. The law is power. Power is the only reality.
Oh and P.S. as above, they’re all private corporations. So A) Private corporations can blow billions of shareholder money and not be sued now? And B) Private corporations can make decisions and incidents of international scale, enter war zones, support war materials, traffic arms, on behalf of the U.S., and the government says nothing? Okay then, I’m sending Goya to throw their whole fortune supporting Syria. Think that would stop? In a 20-nation bloc that is so anti-free-speech you can be de-banked and arrested for donating $50 to a legal protest? Uh-huh.
“Newsweek: “Heartbreaking [fake] images, [from video games, Australian firefighters, Beirut, and Georgia] make it easy to focus on the war’s damage…”
Maybe real footage, honest and not fabricated would be less heartbreaking. I guess we’ll never know.
“Biden Team: More Russia Sanctions Will Be Announced this Week (DM)”
Yay! Russia gets stronger. The US$ dies. Thanks, Joe! Oh, along with all the poor people. I’d say Democrat voters, but that’s no longer true. Democrats are now PMCs, the party of the poor has shifted to Republicans.
“National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan” Wasn’t he just in trouble for subverting all elections and all democracy? Here in the U.S.? But he’s spreading the same love of rigged, protected class, anti-democracy abroad as well.
“The president will also unveil additional help for refugees and for civilians inside Ukraine, many of whom are trapped in besieged cities,”
Maybe you missed this in weasel-speak, but he’s saying we are transporting direct aid to Ukraine, within the borders of Ukraine. How are we not at war with Russia? And how do you plan to do this without being blown to smithereens?
“starve funding from his war machine.” Shows the water they’re swimming in: does he think Russia is funding their war machine with loans from abroad? Like we do? How are you going to starve a completely domestic operation with [illegal] sanctions [that are an act of war]?
P.S., why would Russia rule out using nukes? Why would the reporter ask such a dumb question? Does she think what they say to her is legally binding? These guys live in a fantasy world I don’t understand.
“the one million people killed — 400,000 of whom were noncombatants — by our invasions, occupations and aerial assaults in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and Pakistan.”
Actually, I’d be surprised if it weren’t well over 6 million, but sounds like the world war has started! The U.S. under George Bush started it. So Ukraine is a battle that is a RESPONSE to an aggressive world war of total conquest by the United States. And we’ve said so. And we’ve said it’s a “New World Order” like 100 times, with Bush, but including Biden only yesterday. McCain for instance said the U.S. was going to prosecute war for 100 years. Was he kidding? Why would you not believe him when he tells you this, openly on camera?
“Pfizer received 42,086 adverse event reports that included 1,223 deaths. The first really large tranche of Pfizer documents — some 10,000 pages — was released by the FDA March 1, 2022.”
Yes, but like the politicians above, if they tell you, directly, using official documents and channels, it’s NOT true, whereas if they DON’T tell you, it IS true. That’s just common sense. Twitter Sense™.
So doctors, VAERS, Vps of Pfizer, official documents of Israel, Ireland, UK? All liars. Pfizer’s own documents and discoveries? Also all lies. Chad at Twitter is the only truth. We will have no gods before Chad. Anyone like to explain this otherwise?
“Just because Volodymyr Zelenskyy is the new Fauci, it doesn’t mean COVID is over.”
No but I guess I feel it’s too late to save anyone now. They’re already dosed, for whatever that does, and already been communicated with. If at this point, they continue, should I stop them? They will die. I will tell them if they ask, and we need food.
“And Poland’s tale might not carry much weight if he weren’t Dr. Gregory Poland — a globally respected physician who has dedicated his career to vaccine study”
So you’re saying if there were thousands, hundreds of thousands of other such complaints, no one would look into them, no one would care, they’d say all 200,000 of them were liars? Yeah, we know.
“As a physician who’s taken an oath to first do no harm, I think about these things,”
However, he is very, very slow on the uptake and believes everything multi-billion dollar corporations, convicted felons, for mass-murder, tell him. When the VP of the same company tells him he’s right.
“You have all these rights if you are vaccinated,” an interviewer asked. “That is what it is. Yep,” Ardern stated,”
Yes, I’m saying half of New Zealanders no longer have any rights or humanhood. Suck it, morans!
And when she says this, openly and on camera? Apparently we do NOT believe her? Otherwise what is with our reaction?
“The post-Cold War spread of e-commerce allowed companies to treat the world as both toxic waste dump
factory floorandmarketplaceslave market.”“and has also led nations to rethink their approach to national stockpiling.”
Stockpiling? Leave it to governments to die before realizing what “Productive” is, compared to “Parasitical”. You can’t “stockpile” your way out of a 20-100 year cycle, dummies. They will die rather than help support Workers of the World, productive people who create things. Because #AntiLogos, #AntiLife. Why would they care? No consequences fall on them, maskless at 5-star restaurants, while the valet fuels up the car.
“not the first time in Harris’s political career that she had fallen short of sky-high expectations.”A politician who openly slept her way to the top? Who knew she wouldn’t be strong, capable, and meet expectations? A lady who rounded up innocent black kids for for-profit prison companies? Who knew she would have no morals? Shocking, I tell you.
More’s the problem, Joe needs to have an accident to get Hunter’s corruption in A) China and B) Ukraine out of the news. But they can’t since Kamala is so hated, and so incapable they would shoot their own cause in the face by allowing her anywhere near the public. They already reportedly tried killing her a few times, and as they said of Quayle, “She’s the President’s bullet-proof vest.” However, that leaves problems as it’s not just succession, they THEN need to get Pelosi in, THEN need to vote in Hillary or Michelle, (you can tell because the DNC have PR-puffed no other talent) and THEN solve the Speaker of the House problem. It’s a nightmare.
But that’s what happens when you choose even MORE psychopathic personalities than ever before, who EVERY VOTER hated passionately, even the “black” and “Asian” ones – ostensibly the whole reason she was there. She couldn’t even be a DNC token minority down on the plantation correctly.
I don’t mind. I’m glad they’re in a bind and waste all their time on this.
“SCOTUS Nominee: Lighter Sentences Pedophiles b/c Internet Makes It Easy (ZH)”
They all are. But when they tell you directly, the people say “No they’re not: you’re crazy (because I haven’t looked).” Essentially saying: “There’s no such thing as pedos. No such thing as blackmail. And certainly never in Congress, in the history of all America.” …While the NYC sex trial implicates judges and congressmen on the very same day, three years after Epstein and Nexium. RBG was worse than this. In her book it says she A) Wanted sex work to be legal. Fine, a progressive principle, right? Why is it illegal to sell what you can give away for free? But she also wanted B) the age of consent to be lowered to 14. What does that tell you? Sex trafficking for 14 year olds. RBG was for it. What can I say? I didn’t make her do that; she did it on her own.
Since all this USED to be illegal – for 200 years – and then the USSC suddenly said “[Slap] What are we thinking? Obviously Jefferson and Hamilton MEANT to say all this pornography, and its creation ought to be LEGAL!” in 1970, they just made it up. They were for it. So they can go ahead and UN-make it up, if they wish. Somehow…hmmm…it seems, maybe, sorta, cultures have noticed this has bad, harmful, decaying, corrupting, undermining effects before? Which is why it’s illegal everywhere? Always has been? And sex is highly regulated by social custom? Everywhere? Over all time and space? No? Nobody’s ever noticed that before? Must be just me.
And here I thought we had CONGRESS to make the laws, and AMENDMENTS to pass if we wanted to change things, not federal judges. My bad. A misunderstanding. It’s the people we DON’T vote for that make laws. That’s Democracy!
The kind of “No-vote” “Official coup” “all opposition is illegal” “arm the Nazis” democracy we fight, die, and pay for overseas. And here at home!

March 23, 2022 at 1:13 pm #104765boilingfrogParticipantAs Hemingway is alleged to have said, “First they destroy the currency [to gain], then they start a war [to cover it up].”
My intelligent brother asked me last night, “What does Russia gain from showing a mobile rocket launcher going back to a mall to be re-supplied, and then the missile strike?”
Me: “It shows it wasn’t a civilian target”
He: “Yeah, but does it help explain their invasion (i.e. legitimize)?”
Me: “I think Russia has been stating their case since before 2014. They no longer care what we in the West think”.The concepts that (1) Russia doesn’t care what WE in the West think and feel, and (2) the new world order that Biden speaks of is plain as day if one were to look at a chart of the history of world reserve currencies… these concepts are simple beyond the capacity of most to even imagine (to borrow from Greer).

“If they truly wanted to end vaccine hesitancy, all they have to do is require autopsies if you die within 60 days of vaccination and require the medical examiners to make the required tests to determine vaccine involvement (as doctors Bhakdi and Burkhardt have done) and publish them. Publishing a fraudulent report would be a criminal offense….”

Note how the charity recipients are just about invisible. Which makes me think of a song Stephen Foster wrote in 1854, same time as the painting, Irish potato famine.
T’is the song, the sigh of the weary,
Hard Times, hard times, come again no more.
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
Oh! Hard times come again no more.While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay,
There are frail forms fainting at the door;
Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say
Oh! Hard times come again no more.There are many versions of it, including a Springsteen one, but a billionaire singing about frail forms fainting at the door seems a bit much. So I’ll stick with the McGarrigles (hey, I’m a Montrealer) and Emmylou Harris:

Larry Johnson Answers Some Important Questions about Ukraine Operation
Larry C. Johnson: “The Ukrainian Army Has Been Defeated. What’s Left Is Mop-Up”
Bottom line end for Ukraine:
“This would eliminate Ukrainian access to the Black Sea and create a land bridge towards the Moldavian breakaway Transnistria which is under Russian protection. The rest of the Ukraine would be a land confined, mostly agricultural state, disarmed and too poor to be build up to a new threat to Russia anytime soon. Politically it would be dominated by fascists from Galicia which would then become a major problem for the European Union.”March 23, 2022 at 3:34 pm #104770phoenixvoiceParticipant“ A statement from Johnson & Johnson said that tinnitus was identified as an adverse event in its phase 3 clinical trials of the Covid-19 vaccine but also maintained that it was impossible to “establish a causal relationship to vaccine exposure.””

Convenient.
March 23, 2022 at 4:34 pm #104771Mr. HouseParticipantDon’t they want to fight to preserve their “freedoms”? Its funny i know people from the US who have been in the Ukraine since around 2014 (surprising i know) and they all fled to poland. And they virtue signal on social media about supporting ukraine. Well they had the chance and fled. I feel like everything about the “left” is like that which is why when the moment of truth comes, i’ll go with the “rednecks” 😉
March 23, 2022 at 4:46 pm #104772ezlxa1949ParticipantVERY glad for TAE Summary’s post yesterday about Arthur Ponsonby’s 1928 book Falsehood in War-time, Containing an Assortment of Lies Circulated Throughout the Nations During the Great War. I knew lies and vicious lies had been spread during that war but not in any detail. This book will fill a large gap.
Wikipedia have an article about this book (link). An excerpt:
Anne Morelli systematised the essential propaganda techniques of Ponsonby’s classic in her book Principes élémentaires de propagande de guerre. Morelli explains how these principles not only worked during the First World War, but were also applied in wars into 2001:
1. We do not want war.
2. The opposite party alone is guilty of war.
3. The enemy is inherently evil and resembles the devil.
4. We defend a noble cause, not our own interests (Just War theory).
5. The enemy commits atrocities on purpose; our mishaps are involuntary.
6. The enemy uses forbidden weapons.
7. We suffer small losses, those of the enemy are enormous.
8. Recognized artists and intellectuals back our cause.
9. Our cause is sacred.
10. All who doubt our propaganda are traitors.It would appear that these principles are being actively applied right into 2022, and in more than one arena: the Russia-Ukraine stoush and also the covid narratives.
March 23, 2022 at 5:00 pm #104773zerosumParticipantWWIII is being fought with modern tools.
1. Volodymyr Zelenskyy is doing effective propaganda using “face time” by speaking directly to the foreign snobs.
2. Biden has used faster than sound smart missiles.
3. Ukraine has been reduced to a demolished pile of raw material that can only be used by a recycler.
4. Food shortages will haunt all countries.
5. Our leaders have not learned that everyone loses in a modern war.March 23, 2022 at 5:03 pm #104774ezlxa1949ParticipantYeah, Morrison wants a “khaki election,” so he’ll pursue and promote the death-to-Russia, solidarity- with-the-oppressed-peoples-of-Ukraine lines (and they ARE oppressed, no doubt about it) for all they’re worth.
Does Ukraine even NEED our coal? According to the IEA Ukraine has abundant mineral resources including oil, natural gas and coal, and great hydro and biomass potential. Supplies are disrupted by this war but anything Australia can send them is trivial tokenism. Never mind; the Australian Coal Cabal would gladly stoke the furnaces of hell to keep their industry alive.
We’re in a war now, and it was Ponsonby who coined the term “When war is declared, truth is the first casualty.” A bit more from him: “A moment’s reflection would tell any reasonable person that such obvious bias cannot possibly represent the truth. But the moment’s reflection is not allowed; lies are circulated with great rapidity. The unthinking mass accept them and by their excitement sway the rest. The amount of rubbish and humbug that pass under the name of patriotism in war-time in all countries is sufficient to make decent people blush when they are subsequently disillusioned.”
Justice is repelled, righteousness stands far off; truth has stumbled in the public court and honesty finds no place there.

March 23, 2022 at 6:28 pm #104777Figmund SreudParticipantInteresting commentary:
Question: do you believe that Poland will send forces into the Ukraine?
No, I don’t think the US is giving conflicting instructions to Kiev. The fact is that when we are negotiating with Ukraine, we are, in fact, indirectly negotiating with the United States. Because, it is clear that we are fighting not with Zelensky, but with the United States, now, on the territory of Ukraine. The United States is at war with us to the last Ukrainian, but the United States is at war nonetheless. Therefore, when we offer surrender to Zelensky, we offer it to Zelensky, and in response, through the mouth of Zelensky, the United States offers us to surrender. They say: “Well, you withdraw troops from Ukraine, clear the Crimea and Donbass, return them to Ukraine, and then we’ll talk.” So, it is clear that Zelensky himself cannot put forward such demands, they are simply absurd. …

March 23, 2022 at 10:31 pm #104796Michael ReidParticipantCredibility of dollar and euro ‘destroyed’ – Putin
Moscow will use rubles in gas deals with “hostile” countries, the Russian president saysRussian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday that Western sanctions against his country have dealt a large blow to public trust in the two major Western currencies. Many US allies have joined together to impose sweeping restrictions on Moscow in response to its ongoing military offensive in Ukraine.
Putin argued that the penalties showed it “makes no sense anymore” to sell Russian goods in the US and the EU while receiving payment in dollars or euros. He said that the ruble will be used for the sale of Russian natural gas to, what Moscow considers to be, “hostile” countries.
“During the last few weeks, as you know, several Western countries adopted unlawful decisions to freeze Russian assets,” Putin outlined during a government meeting held via video link. “The West has de facto destroyed the credibility of its currencies.”
The United States and the EU have practically defaulted on their obligations before Russia. Some have suspected this, but now everyone in the world knows that obligations in the [US] dollars and euros can be left unfulfilled.
Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said this month that Russia was unable to access around $300 billion worth of reserves due to sanctions.
Moscow attacked Ukraine in late February, following a seven-year standoff over Kiev’s failure to implement the terms of the Minsk agreements, and Russia’s eventual recognition of the Donbass republics in Donetsk and Lugansk. The German- and French-brokered protocols had been designed to regularize the status of those regions within the Ukrainian state.
Russia has now demanded that Ukraine officially declare itself a neutral country that will never join the US-led NATO military bloc. Kiev insists the Russian offensive was completely unprovoked and has denied claims it was planning to retake the two republics by force.
March 23, 2022 at 11:11 pm #104797Veracious PoetParticipantIf I was Putin/Russia, I’d also demand Ag, Au, other precious metals & consider bartering of goods as well (of course exchange made directly, as with all “bad” faith actors)…
He can always print Rubles internally, actually a store of wealth backed by actual precious metals & not lies printed into infinity like the West.
That is the future, crypto is now a joke evaporating into ether 😐
If I was Putin I’d also make damn sure Russia’s border was overly secure, as not only will espionage agents/assassins be illegally entering, but also migrants from surrounding regions harmed by U$/EU Empire idiocy…

March 24, 2022 at 12:01 am #104800OroborosParticipantPutin stating the Eurotards have to pay for their very life blood of gas in rubles is GENIUS.
hahahahahaa!!!
It’s like a “Financial Tactical Nuke” strike on the western banks and governments.
There aren’t enough rubles in global circulation to even buy so Germany might be forced to buy directly from the Russian Central Bank (Feel the Burn Baby!)
Not only will this be major butthurt for Eurotards, but having to buy rubles will actually support the Ruble’s price in a massive way.

Bravo!
Many on TAE are the “makeweight” 🙂

Two hikers go into Bear country.
One hiker says to the other,” You do know that bears can run as fast as a horse in the first 50 yards.”
The other hiker says,” Aren’t you afraid that a bear is so fast it will catch you?”
The first hiker says,” No, cause all I have to do is outrun you.”
This is what EU countries will be saying to each other shortly.

Russia has had over half it’s foreign reserves seized by the US. Why? There are 2 fractions in Russian government, one pro-west, and the other wary of the west. It appears the woman in charge of Russia’s central bank is pro-west and she is the one who left Russia badly exposed. Going forward, however, she has been “ring fenced” by a new committee made up of the wary. They are now in control of Russia’s economy and many aspects of the Russian central bank activities. The wary are the ones who pushed for oil and gas priced in roubles announced today.
That slow joe has gone to Brussels to declare more sanctions, indicates the US is doubling down again in it fight with Russia and her allies. I see it as a struggle between the WEF crowd against those not buying what the WEF is selling.
The WEF are the ones selling higher energy costs through their Build Back Better scheme. The major flaw in the WEF’s plan is the increased dependency upon uneconomic green energy supplies. The major built in problem with green energy is that it takes more energy to create and then maintain green energy, than green energy produces.
One can only afford to dabble with green energy providing you are enjoying good returns on your fossil fuel supplies and only for as long as those supplies are plentiful. Once your fossil fuel supplies tighten and the amount of energy expended to extract them rises, then you no longer can afford the luxury of dabbling in green energy!
Following the WEF script means putting yourself at a competitive disadvantage with those not buying what the shit the WEF is selling! What the WEF is selling is communism! The fatal flaw in communism is expecting that people will work hard for other people! No they won’t! People will only work hard for themselves!
One of the main planks of the WEF is to drive up energy costs. On Biden’s first day in office he signed an executive order implementing Elizabeth Warren’s energy policy designed to do just that! Plus killed Keystone pipeline too. Similarly Trudeau has implemented policies to slow and stop Canada’s fossil fuels industry. I suspect Australia has done the same. Certainly the EU has done so. There is a pattern here.
In the long run I fail to see how the WEF policies will prevail, simply because they require greater amounts of energy to implement combined with policies ensuring there is less energy available!
We are all going to suffer and pay the price for this fatal political intellectual folly, just like Russia did starting in 1917. It took Russia just over 70 years to hit the brick wall of diminishing returns via greater energy expended for less energy in return.
The question is how long can we last doing this?

Scott MORRISSON Aus pm donating guns and coking coal (heaps of it) to Ukraine means we are also at war with Russia.
Nice – helps with party donations too. And mates rates.I secretly hope that Australia is the recipient of the “demo nuke” used by Putin to show that he is willing to use his big weapons. The USA is not going to start a nuclear war over Australia or New Zealand, so it would be the ideal target and may even help China take over Australia, not that they need help.
