Ivan Aivazovsky Creation of the World 1864 • Trump’s Strait of Hormuz Move Blends Power and Mercy (David Manney) • Obama’s Iran Tale Trips Over Its Ow
[See the full post at: Debt Rattle May 5 2026]All of the western nations want the immigrants gone so they can die in peace among family and friends.
Best news of my life. The US will dismantle it’s nuclear weapons capabilty.
‘Lunatics Can’t Have Nukes’
Iran War:
I get the distinct feeling neither Trump nor Iran are in any hurry to settle.
I wonder how Lloyds of London’s maritime insurance business is doing these days?
Why is Bill Gates still a free man, after covid?
Ukraine War seems to be heating up. Russia sacks head of it’s air force.
Trump is part of the club. He’s doing everything everybody wants. That’s why they shot him again this morning.
Which is it? Wait: was it TWICE this morning?
“DC Judge ‘Apologizes’ To Alleged Trump Assassin
No that is not The Onion. He gave the accused a gun, a 30 day pass, and the words “Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?”
“Virtue Gone Mad: Manager Punished More Harshly Than The Shoplifter He Stopped
That is daily choice across society. All crime is good, all stopping crime is bad.
“What to Know About Trump’s Plan to ‘Guide’ Ships Out of the Strait of Hormuz
Iran has said any American interference in the Strait will be considered a cease-fire violation.” TimeAnd? They can shoot 9mm at us. That Trump is willing to get close demonstrates his relative confidence they’re out of ammunition. They act as if saying there’s no ceasefire is leverage: neither side cares, since Iran attacked ships who paid and waved though. We did other shenanigans, both sides claimed was legit. So? If the U.S. doesn’t care if it’s open OR if they’re shooting, what does this legal distinction serve?
From what I can tell, Trump wants it shut and Iran is helping. We’re two months in where it’s obvious the “news explanation” is completely false and no one will update their map. Be wrong and make the Americans rich then, clearly I can’t stop you.
“Caught Off Guard: Stunned EU Leaders React To Trump’s Troop Reduction In Germany
Inexplicable. What part of “holding you down and kicking you nonstop in the pants” did you not understand? What part of “Stop the war in Ukraine” and “Your oil comes from Russia and the M.E.” didn’t you get?
Duran: Alex C: Trump is trying to get oil prices both up and down. He is both attacking and not attacking (eg Russia). Ah. Or perhaps something else is happening? Starting with “Trump is not the entire U.S. government”?
So Trump is crushing Russian oil by voluntarily and long term lifting Russian oil sanctions? Would you like to try again?
This is why I checked out of them some months ago: it doesn’t make any sense even in itself, even while they intelligently say: “There are many powers in government, a bureaucracy, all of whom conflict and agitate with each other.” Yes. That’s the first core reality. But past that truism, they won’t decipher WHO and WHY. Reverting to the childhood notion “But Daddy Trump”, jingoism. One man, one personality. There is no man but him. There are no other forces. That’s why he’s opposed at every turn because there are no other powers. Right?
“EU Crime Report: Spanish Rape Reports Surge 322% Over Last Decade, EU Sees 150% Increase
Can anyone figure out how this dramatic change has come to pass?“foreigners commit per capita 500% more rapes and 414% more murders than Spanish”
That’s why we must import them. The rape stats in macho-chauvanistic Spain were far too low. As a voting demo, the ones voting for the importation of rapists is primarily women. Likewise inexplicable. You ask and they say “But they tell them not to”. You just need to educate; no force or discipline required, you “just say.” Ah. How’s that been working for you?“Periodic reminder the US government funded at least 23 of the NGOs behind the EU’s Digital Censorship Act, including 13 of the NGOs directly enforcing it”
So we are FOR Free speech in Europe (officially, supposedly) while Biden was NOT for speech anywhere, esp for Catholics. Bigger view: this is why you shouldn’t get involved in micromanaging and social engineering and government’s job is crime, property rights, and defense (which are all the same thing). Because if you do this it becomes an instant mess. HOW do you do it? What are 2nd 3rd consequences? What are the costs? And do you flip flop (as in this case) with the political winds, paying to have it done, then paying to have it un-done?
Limited Government. Look at the mess everywhere else: economy, education, solar, food, health…
“European car makers were paying China for carbon credits, and Chinese car companies began using the payments to lower prices. Europe was, essentially, paying China to undercut their own auto market.” 1, 2, 3, 4 All German jobs and cars and money move from EU to China at EU’s express direction.
There’s another. There are so many hundred when you take an action, just don’t.
“• Trump’s Strait of Hormuz Move Blends Power and Mercy (David Manney)
You might be missing that he started this, and the bombing for “no reason”, or no clearly stated reason that to my mind meets any legal threshold. So saying you have Mercy now is misguided.
Iran is of course causing this problem for the whole planet’s ships, in illegally invaded Omani waters. Put it this way: They can certainly cut a deal to deliver food and water to those tankers. It would be a huge PR win. They do not because they want them, all other nations on the planet, to pay. Okay, I understand, but…really? This is essentially a Prisoner of War scenario. But you’re going to harm them instead? That’s why we don’t do that.
When America feeds them, or escorts them through, as is happening now, the U.S. gets the P.R. win, so suit yourself. As with clearing mines.
“Iran still has terrorized the Middle East for 50 years.”
Have they though? This is just repeated, I don’t see the case. One man’s terrorist is another man’s Freedom Fighter. They were a well-balanced offset to Israeli and American terror. HOW they could be so cleverly matched for 50 years suggests the point was never to win. It’s all a scam. Run by who and why?
“Obama cast himself as the steady man who refused military action and, instead, opted for diplomacy. He also said he still believes his approach was right.”
Sure, he gave Iran billions in cash they then used to fund Hamas, get long-range missiles, etc and refine a nuclear bomb. This is in perfect service to London and Globalists, it seems, and he is their known employee, so it makes sense he doesn’t regret giving Iran the Bomb: That was the whole point. Empowering Europe to let’s say, direct Iran to kill everyone as their personal army, same way Iran directs Hamas to do the same thing. Do we want this?
“birther theory, were a racist outrage that heightened the threats against him and his family, he now took pains to set aside his contempt. Insuring that there was another orderly transition of power—that, too, was part of his rhetoric of consolation.”
This is all of course false. So wild theories, fine…cause shootings? Huh? How are the two related? If anything, less so, as he could be legally removed. Wasn’t racist, no relation to race whatsoever, stop making things up. Reporters open mouth: Lie fall out. And there was OBVIOUSLY, HILARIOUSLY no transition of power to Trump, Obama very specifically ordered there to be no power, and gave direct orders to prevent democracy and the electorate. His fingerprints are all over the seditious (or treasonous) coup, and legally have to be.
So any legality or poise is all illusion. A guy who took in Bush’s cabinet and bankers, started 5 wars, paid terrorists, got Iran the bomb, and attempted to end American democracy forever.
“a president losing hold of his carefully crafted narrative, one polished for years until reality started showing through”
It is interesting that we can just re-phrase the same things and it goes 180 isn’t it? Even now? PJ Media is trying to be a little nicer, merely popping the bubble without going too far, which is fine. Not all readers can see the thing and its opposite side by side, it seems too far.
“At the same time, CNN came with a poll that said 100% of 2024 MAGA voters still would vote MAGA.
• Trump Disapproval Rate Hits Career-High – War And Rising Costs Take Toll (ZH)Polls. Have we learned yet? It also doesn’t matter because redistricting. Good to keep track of, however DoJ said they would prosecute any states who remain districted by race. Which is called “Apartheid.” Essentially the Supreme Court said as much. Essentially ordering all “Misinterpreted districts” to re-draw immediately. They do not have the POWER to do this though. The DoJ does. This would go back to the States and the People to decide the election was legit or broken, but they appear very in the mood to call these and any strangeness as illegal rigging, as seen by universal support for the SAVE Act among all 360M Americans except Thune and 500 people in DC who get their paychecks via said rigging.
It is kind of interesting that the Kirk murder/Israel-MAGA and Iran war splits they are running to remove Trump have died down so rapidly. No traction but no legs. So it’s like…they pay Fox News to promote it and the minute they don’t PAY to have this said, it drops? Prob…ab…ly. Odd tho. And they know it since they’re trying a new assassination every 12 hours now. If their PR split was working they wouldn’t be activating all the morons for assassination. Again, this seems to remain extremely popular on the Left, to shoot anyone you don’t like whenever you feel like, for any reason you please. Carville is heading the broad push on this, with Spartacus demanding constant, eternal war. Personally I don’t care for war, but okay, “Party of Eternal War”, noted.
“Relations between the United States and Italy and between Donald Trump and Pope Leo XIV have been delicate lately to say the least.”
Yeah, really this and the Jesus memes are all trolling the Vatican to surrender. Everyone knows they’re evil, at the core, and are the Globalist Banking conduit ASIDE from kiddies and trafficking immigrants by the millions. But if no one is going to go public, what can I say? What evidence can I present? They released his old Texts and posts because the internet is forever. I’m sure they have more.
“• NATO Holds Secret Meetings With Movie, TV Makers – Guardian (RT)
“Creatives reportedly fear that the US-led military bloc is moving to influence TV and film industry professionals.”You are kidding, right? Nothing is made or filmed without them (ie Intel money, CIA, MI6, etc). They have all the money. They’ve done this, mostly this, since they were formed. So they are now meeting to say they have no money to buy off Hollywood. USAID is gone.
“The upcoming meeting will be overseen by the British think tank Chatham House”
Speaking of and “Because it exists” the media ignores facts and publishes inventions, I have to really hand it to Chatham House and why they’ve been successful over the years. They really, actually, honestly, in the most straightforward manner said, the “Special relationship” of US/UK is totally dead, the US will be fighting no British wars, this had been a multi-billion, trillion free benefit to them they cannot possibly fill in any way.” They then take as stab at new strategy approaches for the future. So IF ANYONE BOTHERED TO READ you would see their white papers in black and white, with their names signed on the bottom, as usual.
There are 100 ways this is relevant, but Eg Ukraine comes to mind. Will they pay us back for this military work we did for them is another. They are broke and can’t build an army. And this confirms we’ve been led and controlled by them against our interests, as suspected. And that Trump specifically is the one stopping it. There are dozens of lighter-order consequences, but that will do for now. Read it, it’s public. Promethean gave the clif notes.
“Some platforms are now detecting emojis used as code for drug sales.”
Ah. Well not according to the BBC. This hilarious BBC video honestly believes London barbers are out chopping each other daily with machetes for competition in haircuts. There are turf wars going on over which locations pay provide styling and a trim, and this has nothing to do with drugs at all. Because a $20 haircut is worth prison time defending.
Other riveting information? It’s okay to threaten to rape a British Police Officer, an act for which they will take no actions, not knowing what to do. Um…arrest them? Because: Police? They are also all (illegal) migrants and not citizens at all, so you know, ramming witnesses cars and threatening to kill councilmen is no possible cause for deportation. …Says the BBC. 20 years on.
“• Extensive Interview with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent (CTH)
They also made a billion (?) on backstopping Argentina? He was grilled in Congress over this. He said, we set up a Swap line, thus SWAP, as in: collateral? “Borrowing” is not free? So BECAUSE they had the credit line, no one (The IMF/London/Soros) dared not attack them, so the money was essentially not needed, and what little they borrowed was paid with small profit. Argentina did then essentially stabilize, and remains so now. Forget political intervention, why would you not just do this? Is there any reason not to?
They would have done this to Spirit Airlines. Why? Fascism, government involved with corporations although that’s the definition of “Socialism”? Spirit was going bankrupt anyway, in a regulated public-private space, same as Utilities and railroads have, and for the same reasons. Lie a watha Warren stopped it. Spirit was dead, has been dead for years perhaps. They already had a bankruptcy last year, this is their second. Why? They suck. Their business plan is crap, as is their execution. So Jet Blue among others was going to buy them in bankruptcy, run a merger. But this would “reduce competition” a thing ultra-free-market Ayn Rand Liz Warren stands for. Like competition of ConEd, Duke, and Pacific Gas n Electric. You know, REGULATED monopoly utilities, as airlines are.
Instead, it went completely bankrupt as no one would touch it. Why did Trump fail at this last “bailout”? A: He didn’t. He was going to grab, run bankruptcy, cleanup and re-issue, resell. That is, ton of work but modest profit like Intel and Argentina, for the greater good of preventing exactly uncontrolled collapse in Airlines. The Private Equity Funds like Blackrock refused. They demanded a “Money unlimited refill” from taxpayer teat the way Obama did for them. Trump said no, clock ran out, and here we are.
There WAS profit for everyone in that deal. Just not “Free money, no risk” profit. NOR DOES IT MATTER. Spirit isn’t nuked then launched into orbit. They will STILL Have the same bankruptcy Warren, Blackrock, Biden, everyone was doing. The jets will be sold to pay creditors, to JetBlue, exactly the same as before. It’s just messier and longer, a huge pointless waste. So it does NOT serve the public interest to lose money on jets in hock, and disrupted flights. Again, this is Public-private, regulated space. And ultra-libertarians like me might not allow it but it’s a practical, well-established 150 year reality, as we could find nothing better. The “Always meddle” people then refused to meddle and demanded it collapse. Nice going. “Free Market” but really just middle -moderate Trump would have intervened and demanded a small profit for his involvement. And? Taxpayers should do it for free, Blackrock says? Idgaf about your flights. Anymore than airspace and backlogs over UAE tourism and Iran. Sucks to be you, Mr. Jetsetter to Thailand and Zurich. There’s people can’t make car loans that don’t need to pay for you.
Anyway, story demonstrates multiple things about America right now.
“The United States is and will remain Germany‘s most important partner in the North Atlantic Alliance.”
All I see here is “Merz has allied with Literally Hitler”. Prove me wrong.
“Iran must not be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons.”
By doing literally nothing about it at all, I guess. Oh wait: actively PREVENTING doing something about it, by preventing flights DURING an airplane rotation. Now he’s sore. We were ordered to be their national/international corporate arm for FREEEEEE, the way we have since I dunno, Thatcher or something.
“The purpose of a thing is what it does.”
The Hormuz war is shocking the global economy into lower use of oil and gas, “demand destruction” as a first order effect.
What are second and third order effects?

It wont post to the english version for another hour.
i do not think the majority of the people realize what is happening to them. Capitalism is what is happening to them. Outside of Wall Street and The City of London price discovery is moving deliberately as the recent ongoing discovery of value is part of the data set. The price the market is delivering to the US and it’s 100% of GDP Debt signals the market will no longer bear the price structure.
The Boy Who Cried Wolf and his Band of Merry Pranksters are making hay while the sun shines. Only duty is to The Share Holder!
The quote below was delivered in 1977. The quote was directed at the less than ten percent of the population with near unlimited access to debt. In the current environment private personal debt has led to a consumption windfall with a sense of advantage. This vantage point leads to consideration of the reality that every person using debt has an advantange that must be protected.“People of privilege will always risk their complete destruction
rather than surrender any material part of their advantage.”
“The Age of Uncertainty” – Galbraith – 1977My favorite Galbraith truism is that “when 5% of the population controls 95% of the wealth there is a
revolution. EVERY TIME”
The global maket place is deciding the 30% net cut The US requires is no longer feasible.
Just easier and happier to muse about robots and free everything, and forget that you and everyone you love are just collateral damage.Thinking out of the box to arrive at a solution.
Putin could stop the Iran War today. Simply deploy nukes to Iran under the same arrangement the US does for Germany and others. But he won’t.

Erika Kirk Brilliantly Dismantles White House Correspondents’ Hypocrisy (Salgado)
And in addition to being so brilliant she should also be made the head of TPUSA because that’s what Charlie wanted just before she offed him (with a little help from Mossad & CIA). Now she and the other Evangelical “Christians can get back to work killing Muslims for Christ just like the ZioNazi’s in Tel Aviv and Washington intended.
What the hell is wrong with you Ilargi? Why are you dragging this kind of Psy-Op grade ZioNazi propaganda onto your forum? Do you think we lack talking points or something? Erika Kirk and the people pushing her up into positions of authority and power are pure poison. Don’t you see that?
@Dr_D
Trump is part of the club. He’s doing everything everybody wants. That’s why they shot him again this morning.
Which is it? Wait: was it TWICE this morning?
Oh, golly gee whiskers! 4 different back-to-back absurdly incompetent assassination attempts that our vaunted Secret Services didn’t even see coming (at all) or handle effectively when they occurred surely do prove to any reasonably intelligent person that the ZioNazi Cabal just hates Trump all to pieces and is just obsessed with really seriously killing him. I’m certainly convinced that Trump is Captain Wonderful who care about the lives of innocent people everywhere, that’s for sure. Because your sarcastic flippancy just proves it beyond doubt. Forget about the body count and half trillion dollars just spent on yet again failed war of choice
