    Trying to gin up a war with China: how’s this for a theory? They’re broke and need to steal China’s overseas dollars the same way they just bought a few months stealing Russia’s. Now THAT’S plausible.

    Refinery fires. A lot of them. But is it more than usual? What does it mean? Okay, here’s a rumored data point though: like fertilizer plants and US LNG ports, they aren’t fixing them. Or aren’t in any sort of urgency about it. Thots?

    I was thinking, even if there’s no supply chain, and/or no money, refinery companies would be screaming for free money to “help”. They’re not? They don’t like free Congressional, national security money? Huh.

    I’m interested in how Sevestapol rebuffed the undersea drones. Also, near-continuous fly-over from U.S. planes, targeting and orchestrating the whole thing. …But we’re not in the war. Uh-huh. I’m sure Russia totally takes our word for it, and doesn’t blow up any refineries or anything. Petrol now rising in the supply-constrained NE bubble. …Constrained bc they refused pipelines, power lines, and power plants for 50 years. After shutting down their extensive railroads.

    “a voice of reason. But they still have to resort to blatant lies:”

    Also, what’s a “Double down”? That has wide but unspoken implications and prejudice. We’re at a point where reporters, and probably the rest of us, don’t even know HOW to write without bias, having never seen it before. “He said”. “He mobilized.” The end.

    Moscow orchestrated” Lie. Bias. “illegally annex” Lie. Bias. Arguable. “Congress have not done enough” Lie. Bias. They did nothing and/or actively prevented it.

    Every word is a lie because their mind paradigms are constructed of other lies. If they weren’t, they’d be fired. .: If they said it, it’s a lie.

    ““Europe was by far the largest market, the largest client for Russia, and Russia lost this client forever.”

    So? Here’s a mind paradigm that nations are corporations. Why? Because he’s never seen anyone or anything not for sale before. No, a nation does not have to be a corporation. They can just stay in their self-sufficient borders and leave 200 other nations the h—l alone, not sitting on them with military bases.

    “Russian oil and gas revenues will drop by more than half in the coming years, from around $75 billion last year to less than $30 billion in 2030.”

    A mere $30B? That sounds pretty easy to cover.

    “So to replace the natural gas exports to Europe with Russia is, in the short term, a pipe dream.”

    Sure, and they know that, and in the meantime, Europe replacing natural IMports is a pipe dream. Who do you think will better endure the middle period of living modestly, or even rough? A: Europe is already cracking and there’s not even cold and hunger yet. Nor do they have a Siberian forest to burn in their tile stoves in London.

    We are in the middle of the first truly global energy crisis.”

    No, you’re in the middle of an energy attack. Europe got up one day and said, “Hey! Let’s not have any energy anymore. Won’t that be a riot?” They can stop any moment they like which means there is no crisis, the crisis is false.

    “unprecedented depth and complexity in terms of energy, with a profound reorientation of international energy trade”

    They said it, therefore lie. It’s very simple: Europe is broke and didn’t want to pay. So they stopped buying and in fact stole all Russian money, and is looking to steal all of China’s. That IS a profound reorientation in that Europe, being broke, is a useless nobody with no options, while the rest-of-world is having no trouble going around them to other customers and other shipping locations. Sorry to Europe. But admitting it is the first step, bc you’re in SERIOUS, <<le plus maximum>>, danger.

    ” US LNG Cannot Replace the Russian Natural Gas that Europe Has Lost (OP)”

    Why would it? They’re broke and can’t pay for our gas anyway. Coincidentally, our to-Europe LNG terminal blew up and we’re not fixing it. No one notices, we keep our own gas for winter. We’re also doing a direct frontal attack on Europe with bond rates, headed to 6%, fastest in history, even if we’re not doing a direct deadly attack on Germany with NordStream.

    Therefore, European demand will need to fall, Timera Energy said.”

    “Good news, kids! The cupboard is bare! Therefore, no one will eat. Isn’t it wonderful how simple that is?” Somehow I suspect THEY are not going to be the first houses and businesses and cars shut off.

    ““a world without superpowers”, still in need of “a system of self-regulation,”

    Think about the implications of this. No superpower means no superpower’s currency. Or banking center. The “System” of “self” regulation must therefore be a non-empire, probably non-state currency. Usually gold, but could be lots of things these days. Go the other way: how could the reserve currency persist in the ABSENCE of the global empire, backed by a competent, non-constantly-failing Army? Or if the Pentagon and NATO fail everywhere they’ve ever been, can’t even beat goatherders, is that the reliable basis for a currency?

    US$ backed by “Faith and Confidence”? Maybe, or maybe once. But actually, like all governments, it is FIRE, it is FORCE, it is backed by VIOLENCE and murder: “War is a Racket”.

    “allowed Ukraine to resume its Black Sea grain exports, which had been blocked when Russia invaded”

    Passive tense. If passive tense is used, assume it’s a lie. If they use words, it’s a lie. It “had been blocked” but not by “Russia” but by their own badly-deployed sea mines which floated all over the 4,000 sq miles, all the way to Turkey, threatening everybody and everything. Russia had nothing to do with that one.

    Lie: the Black Sea grain exports were going to Europe, who is attacking them, to pay Ukraine, who is in a war with them. And Russia LET THEM OUT, voluntarily, and you IMMEDIATELY attacked and thought you could get away with it? What is this s—t? If your rival and enemy is doing a favor that’s good, I don’t know what you think you’ll get by attacking them for it. …To say nothing of using same ships to re-import major explosives from outside.

    “Still no investigation results. Top secret.”

    Just like Covid. We know because we never looked, never will, and all the documents we have are redacted, can be read in 75 years. That’s how you can be sure we’re innocent and true!

    “British Navy Involved in Nord Stream 2 ‘Terrorist Attack’ – Russia (RT)”

    Kinda. As I’ve said, the Anglo way is to lie, re-define, confuse, obfuscate, and proxy such that, in their own tiny, crooked minds, they can justify themselves. So the HMS Navy planned, armed, trained, paid, and set the date of the attack, however, they’re “totally not involved” because they hired two Poles and a Ukrainian to do it using a UAV owned by Kolomoisky for 6 hours, and provided all the aerial surveillance and accuracy. So both sides can say they’re right…if you follow the language precisely, using diplo-speak. A Parseltounge used by soulless lizards.

    But okay: if it’s not the Brits, where’s the camera footage? What’s the hold up? We saw Deepwater Horizon bringing up nations of oil from improbable depths day after day in hi-res, real-time, but now we un-invented cameras and don’t know how to go underwater? Because it’s Russia, and Sweden, Denmark, and Germany are fronting for and protecting Russia? Huh? “I don’t think so” LL Cool J / Homey the Clown

    German Bailout Of Struggling Energy Giant May Reach €60 Billion – BBG (RT)
    At some point, someone will say that is an awful lot of money to keep a bunch of neo-nazis in power.”

    Who will say that? The Nazis in Europe like Klaus are the same ones. It would take an outside “someone” like the starving people. And sadly, a strongman like Napoleon. Same as it ever was: France started to “Burn it all Down” to “Build Back Better” as wildly advertised by their social media influencers in 1785. A wonderland of freedom and social justice. Just as everybody said, 5 minutes into power, they went insane, being insane people, and broke literally every thing, and killed every body they could lay hands on when their own stupid ideas had their own predictable failure. Battle Cry: “It’s somebody’s else’s fault!” That barber over there, probably, or must be that war vet. Having broken Every. Thing.; Culture, religion, economy, government, in a riot of pure chaos and anarchy of blood-soaked orgy of “me, me, me” violence, no one COULD go back. Everyone was dead, untrusting, or held fatal grudges.

    Therefore there WAS no option but for a strongman who cracked heads with raw, concentrated power to take over. Once he provided order, people saw that as a lesser evil. And once accepted that was the goal, it took mere weeks to restore the French Republic, as happened in Germany, 100 years later: Leon re-instated the French currency and gold standard, under law. That’s it. Boom. Instant prosperity in months as a bunch of hard-living kids who grew up in nothing but violence turned their attention to fixing s—t instead of breaking it. Great!

    One problem: Now a charismatic strongman, happy to smash the old order was in charge of a newly-recreated, squeaky-clean, modern efficient state having only new loyalties, not frayed or historic ones. And a rough, hardened, newly-armed military of an extremely large people. …And being the sort of guy who LIKED getting in fights and taking over and organizing things – thus how he got into the state in the first place – he continued his psychology by getting into MORE fights and taking over MORE things.

    So if you want to remove the Nazis – who are indeed literal Nazis – and the WEF, and the Old guard of Europe who are behind them, the most likely path is with someone like this. Congratulations. Of course you COULD have a religious reform of the heart, where you recognize evil and refuse to participate in it, standing up peacefully to thousands of murders and millions of beatings and imprisonments instead, as the government falls, bringing Europe to heel under the control of the people. But then Jesus could come back in space ship at the head of an alien invasion too. That doesn’t seem any more likely.

    “What now connects most of these newer political entities with Hungary, and indeed its old neighbours, Romania and Austria, is EU membership.”

    This is pure nonsense and I don’t grasp what he’s implying. No: if the EU ceased to exist, no one would notice and the interactions between these nations that reach back 2,000 years would scarcely change.

    “GM “Paused” Ads on Musk’s Twitter (WS)”

    Again: they’re all broke and are directing money to “family” only. In the sense that one Mafia arm only takes from enemies and gives to family. So they’re calculating what they have to do here, but the ROOT of it is that they’re broke. They need to cut spending anyway. When I “spend” to a family member, it’s only a poker chit he never calls or we settle up as a favor. When it’s outside the family, it takes actual cash I don’t have. Because I’m a failure, and totally broke, and the only thing keeping it off is raw violence.

    PS, this is the exact same reason Twitter was also broke, failing, and COULD be bought out. They gave nothing but free favors to friends and had no actual business or business model.

    You have to understand: corporations no longer make money anymore. They don’t even try. When they don’t, it doesn’t matter, as the money-fountain just directs a CIA contract to them to cover. Like WaPo. That’s Capitalism! No profits, no sales, no bankruptcy!

    “Writers, Publishers, Editors Call for Termination of Barrett Book Deal (Turley)”

    Such rebels and outsiders. The Resistance. Made up of CIA, FBI, Congress, Nike, Amazon, Lockheed, Exxon…

    “Agriculture experts say we will need two or more good crop years in North and South America to relieve the tight food supply situation.”

    No it won’t because we no longer have trains or elevators to store it in. That’s what happens when you’re 3rd world infrastructure and your express, written goal is to live in caves and eat bugs.

    “UN finds ‘no credible pathway to 1.5C in place”

    This from an organization, in a system of organizations, who have been exactly wrong about everything in my entire lifetime. But they know this to the first decimal place. EXACTLY x tonnes of CO2, to the second decimal place. Uh-huh. After none of their climate models worked.

    Well, luckily they don’t have any plausible pathway, because their present pathway will kill nearly every human on earth. Instead, it will all happen without any “government”, “rules” or “help.” How? The US lowered their CO2 emissions more than anyone. Why? Because it’s cheaper. And more efficient. Market. Canada lowered their fertilizer use by 1/3. Why? Because it’s cheaper. Why put on stuff that isn’t being efficiently used?

    With us, the UN does nothing, wastes money worldwide, supports wars, applauds the Pentagon burning more CO2 than most major nations, flies more private jets than can park at O’Hare, and yet CO2 is falling. Why? Europe’s stupid war. Nothing to do with the UN. Things changed. That nobody planned. AS ALWAYS. This “not-planning” will probably have a greater effect on CO2 than all the hot air and conferences they’ve released for 40 years. All the loveless nagging and scolding they’ve done while never changing a whit in their own lives. Just like Carter, doing one initiative for domestic insulation, had more effect on oil use than all Presidents combined.

    But we Must. Not. Do. This. Thing. No!!! No insulation for Europe! Never!!!!!!! (It would reduce sales, GDP, tax revenue, and control.)

    That means:
    No local food.
    No domestic solar hot water.
    No home schooling (must have 1h on busses)
    No railways, esp not low-speed local support
    No canals as they are the most efficient
    No collectivized communities
    No 500-year houses (must be disposable)
    No enduring Tech (phones, cars, washers must all fail immediately, and we must mock enduring copper-line tech like Russian fax machines)
    No coppice trees or methods (we much outprice, cut down, and condo these lands instead, esp in Holland)
    No wool or linen, must use plastic.
    No reuse of glass bottles.
    Never recycle lithium.
    No ownership of seeds in Europe, must be made illegal.
    And much, much more!

    Stop. Protest these things. Never Conserve. That’s what Conservatives do. Never, ever Use it up, wear it out; make it do or do without. Buy more today! Operators standing by!

    Cool story bro. Sorry history started in 1930:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_invasion_of_Russia

    Polish invasion of Russia or Polish invasion of Rus may refer to
    • Boleslaw I’s intervention in the Kievan succession crisis, 1018 (the Kiev Expedition)
    • Polish–Muscovite War (1605–18)
    • Polish–Soviet War (1919–20)
    See in 1939, Russia was only JUST invaded by Poland. Last year. After being invaded by the West constantly, with Sweden, France, Prussia. Like now. In 1920 the Polish took most of Lithuania, W. Ukraine, and Belarus. Whoops! Sorry: never happened. Poland is a wee helpless innocent, never done no wrong.

    Also Ukrainian history started 24 March, 2022. There was no history between 21 November 2013 and then. There was no NATO coup. Nuland never said “F–k the EU, we’ll put in our boy Yats”. It’s all in your mind.

    C’mon, you’re better than this.

    Pelosi brutally beaten. Reprehensible and appalling. One good thing: Republicans will be happy to find the attacker and hang him.

    Anyway, um, super weird details around this guy so far? Like 10 seconds would tell you it’s Paul and that Nancy’s in DC? So you really, REALLY don’t like DWI’s? And he’s a furry? And he re-activated his social media for the occasion after a break of 15 years? Aaaaand he’s a Leftist from Berkeley. And it may not even be political. SF is a terrible, violence city, thanks to his wife.

    Hard to believe Paul can recover at +80. Good on him. We need him healthy so he can be adjudicated and go to jail.

    “Dow Soars Towards Best Month in 84 Years Amid ‘Eye-Wateringly Speculative YOLO-ing’”

    Too fast. I wasn’t sure, but this says “Bear market rally” to me. Sorry.
    Speaking of, though, Amazon dropped. Not so much. Here’s the rub though: with Amazon’s market cap, what was the drop? $100B lost? Oops.

    “Biden, Harris to Campaign For Fetterman after Rocky Debate Performance”

    But neither of them can speak either!

    “Top Dems Urge Biden to Nationalize Oil & Gas Industry”

    I smell money around here somewhere! If you thought the industry would refuse to operate before, wait til this sinks in.

    Free speech and opinions are now a federal election crime:
    “Leaked FBI Pamphlet Lists ‘Misinformation’ and ‘Disinformation’ as ‘Election Crimes’”
    In other news, the FBI issuing misinformation and lying to Congress and Judges: not a crime.

    But it’s the FBI. Problem is, unlike the NY Times, you can’t opt out and not buy them. Government is FIRE. It is FORCE. That is, it is VIOLENCE. Hey! We should use it for everything then! Like health care.

    “The WEF is a fantasy factory; all it can really produce is chaos and misery.” – Kunstler

    Except he doesn’t understand yet that’s on purpose. That’s its reason and plan. Cars that burn coal and ALSO don’t have a 100 mile range? Perfect. Feudalism here we come. You may not leave the Lord’s manor without permission. A passe-porte of some kind.

    “ EU Approves Gasoline Car Ban in 2035 (RT)” There you go. With zero cars available for replacement.

    “Europe is embracing the shift to zero-emission” Actually coal and 100,000 year radioactive waste emission. Doesn’t roll off the tongue because it’s real and not bulls—t. They’ll have a lot less emission when 1/3 of their people are dead; just as they hoped and wrote about.

    They’re overdoing it with diesel. Yes, it’s 30 days, and yes that’s lower than ever, however, it’s very near the 20-year long term level. There are only 30 days storage and I would stock some, but the refineries just make more. It’s not a milkshake you drink, it’s a water tower.

    Erdogan: Turkiye Will Ensure Distribution of Russian Gas to Europe (Az.)”

    Speaking of maybe not assassinating rulers you later have to make major deals with… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_Turkish_coup_d’%C3%A9tat_attempt

    I’m sure he doesn’t hold a grudge or anything. After Russia saved him. Or against the EU for treating Turkey like coolies since…well, forever. But 100% since the the EU started. Turkey is just “The Jungle” I guess. Hey: who are better soldiers, those from the Jungle or from the Garden?

    “Russian gas supplies to the EU dropped by almost 50% since May, while exports to Japan and South Korea remained at about the same”

    I see why they thought the economic sanctions would work. The drop of flow + the duration is quite challenging. However, with the Ruble and BTU price, there’s zero chance it will work the way things turned out.

    At the same time, the enormous drop of everything in China will be equally challenging. Suppose China even has a revolution; would it change anything? Or would more liberty make them more powerful? Armstrong seems to think yes to both bc capital is predicted to flow and it can’t unless they lighten up.

    Mikhelson suggested that the upcoming winter will be the easiest of the next three, …In his view, global GDP will struggle”

    Deflation. Zero purchases, dead people. Sadly, this permits governments to print worthless money into Stagflation. Printing money, if accepted, retains their power.

    ““They build relationships this way – markets and resources are captured,”

    Using printed money, not real. Which is why that’s the lynchpin for all power.

    “The North-South corridor could become a safe substitute for the Suez Canal,”

    I remember a project where Iran would canal the Caspian, but underground in tunnels. That might also keep off Western bombs, which never stop. Go us! “Killin’ some folks” – Barack Obama

    “the 101st is called “airborne” in reference to its World War II days, today its soldiers are not trained to jump out of airplanes; the 82nd Airborne Division does that.”

    My error. Also that the 101 is merely replacing the existing ’82 in rotation. However, coincidentally or not, they are double-heavy with helicopters. Pie to the face on that one.

    ““Yes, we must reduce our vulnerability, reduce one-sided dependencies.” –President Steinmeier

    So you’ve joined the Trump plan. Got it.

    How dare people have opinions and words. When I want your opinion I’ll beat it out of you.

    The buy of Twitter by Musk is another tell of them losing. But slowly: they apparently are going broke and cannot defend their companies from hostile takeover. Slower may be safer and most probably is. Who’s next? Trump set up MASSIVE fund/company to hover, waiting to buy anyone who wavers. Kanye buys Parler. CNN was/may be already taken over in a softer way and is being reformed. Since Bernays is the only thing they have, what happens as they lose share of it?

    “Meta Spent”, Yes, that’s what happens when there is free 0% money, but no actual productive purpose to spend it on. Why? No money among the people thus no sales or profits. There is only central bank golfing pals and printing. There are no markets from T-Bonds right down to the car wash. That’s Capitalism!

    Twitter buy pretty normal: Secret Pre-buys to position, attempts to influence board instead, sets up the buy contract, tries to get discovery and re-negotiation on price, back and forth, one side gets the upper hand, run out of time, deal goes through. It was a good play to try to drop the price, but it didn’t work. Oh well, these things happen.

    Oh: and the press went bananas and called it crazy, using hyperbole = 11 with every comma.

    Twitter Leftists then break down and says “I’ll be first to be banned”. Banned? I thought it was all for free speech: Why on earth would Musk ban you when the whole POINT is he’s providing free speech? “Because that’s how this works.” What? Works for YOU, in YOUR world, the world of banning anyone you don’t like. Us normal people aren’t nitwit crybabies who ban bad words, more’s the pity for us.

    Cramer: “Bear Sterns is NOT going bankrupt! BuyBuyBuy!!!”

    Oh and the apes won big on Credit Suisse. NYT comes out and says “All rumors of trouble are nonsense, totally created by social media. (PS BuyBuyBuy)” Whoops!

No wonder they dream of being North Korea: then we’d have no choice but to buy their paper.

    “Simplification and the erasure of any and all differences have become almost the essence of the modern West. What is behind this simplification?”

    Idiocracy, basically. Or as Orwell would say, “Newspeak”: the removal of all words and meanings such that you can no longer formulate intelligent ideas. Past tense. That’s why when Putin says clear, obvious things, no one can understand him.

    “But the English language had deteriorated into a hybrid of hillbilly, valley-girl, inner city slang, and various grunts. Joe was able to understand them, but when he spoke in his ordinary voice, he sounded pompous and “faggy” to them.” “…Joe was about to learn, that in the future, justice was not only blind, but had become rather retarded as well.” –Idiocracy, 2006

    “When we hear that we are a country that stands for freedom and justice for everyone – it simply doesn’t apply to those who are not white”

    Yeah, except it doesn’t apply to those who are white either.

    Unless he is suffering, how can you be sure that he is obeying your will and not his own?”

    This is a great insight. And one used in mafias and other control like domestic abuse. You HAVE to keep something they don’t want always going on. Wouldn’t that be counterproductive? More likely to slip away and rebel? Well…maybe, but you have to have a warning light on two things: one, if they have thoughts, you’ll know, not default, because there’s always small tension, two, more importantly, IF they take action, they’ll take action against this more minor point first. Rather than putting a bullet in your head for something real. So he’ll try to keep you from taking his wife out for dinner every month, but NOT shoot you for the ongoing extortion racket.

    That’s true here as well. They WANT you to suffer, so they can track it, and the WANT outlets for the frustration, both positive (like a single Ron Paul), and negative (like groups filled with FBI informants). Ask Winston all about it, that’s practically 100 years ago now.

    “Trudeau refused to meet/talk/listen with the freedom convoy protestors and as a result, the freedom convoy stayed”

    Everyone throwing everyone under the bus. Ottawa pointing that he called an Emergency BEFORE TRYING to to talk? A wartime power??? Etc. Well, they deserve it. Each and every. They can all swing but won’t.

    Quite a variety of good things in the 1900s, the progressive reforms. Created the world we know today. However, like Lincoln, they wildly expanded the powers of government, and although it takes time that backfired horribly. (again) If they didn’t want it, they themselves should have not done it, instead of paying someone to crack heads and make them. But who would have known at the time? I mean, cranks like me would say Morgan would – and was – running government, but they accomplished the goals outlined, and the people were active and organized to make them…at first. If we had granges, odd fellows, town halls, bishops, and bowling clubs we could still hold them to account today. But we don’t.

    The Jungle isn’t untrue, but there were good times all over too and you could write a new, more horrifying “Jungle” today. Right down the street, I’m sure. And it’s hard to measure how MANY relatively poor mountain, farming, milkmen people had great times, compared to sad, lonely, and neglected but “healthy” people today. I don’t know. I don’t think quality it can be quantified.

    One thing that strikes me from “not socially acceptable” is true, but like in Little Women, or Angela’s Ashes, if you’re living hard with barely enough then giving or not giving is much less of a choice. We’re not used to thinking this way, that if I feed the neighbor’s kids when they come over, my kids will go hungry, but we’re about there now. Much less perfect strangers who also may have made bad choices. Do you put on your own oxygen mask first? Or not? What good will it do for both of us to be in a box? It always surprises me where I’m from that everyone seems to think we have limitless food and clothes lying around going to waste. So we can “just feed everyone” if we feel like it, but we’re selfish and don’t. Maybe that is true now, but I didn’t grow up with it. Limits and hardship are the human condition.

    How to allocate is also a constant, complex, and touchy problem. There’s the root assumption now that we always and ever do it according to “the law”. Why? It wasn’t that way for 5,000 years and it was accomplished by several other means. WE did it. US. Not somebody else. When we need that food and half is wasted in the welfare administration, that idea comes in handy. It says I can double the number of people fed in 10 minutes, but discussing that – and therefore feeding those 40M extra people – is “mean”. It HAS to be the government. Always. Never me, you, or anybody else. THEM. But them = us, with 50% overhead, and tons of corruption.

    Moral and cultural standards don’t need to be “the law”. “The Law” is supposed to be written in our hearts, and if it isn’t the John Law and the local Mayor sure ain’t gonna make it. There will be a “or else” be it shame, or law but one of them has wildly higher costs that are better spent elsewhere, and wicked backfires that blow up on us all.

    AFKTT, that’s a sad story and state of affairs. People don’t know what to do, ourselves included.

    Quarter of a million votes. In just this ONE line. Let that sink in. If PA has 4 cities, this is a fifth they may have just made up. And “Warns of delays”? Yeah, who could have predicted that, except all of us, months ago. Can you see how that gives the military license to step in? In the middle of “a war”? They won’t? You mean the way the Supreme Court had zero jurisdiction to decide the race in 2000, illegally jumped in, and also decided it wrong, and everybody was good with it?

    “Stop Worrying & Love the Bomb (Chris Hedges)”

    I’m not sure at the moment that anyone knows where this is going. Too many variables, with too many former anchors unmoored. But I think probably that’s what it takes to alter the path and release the status quo. Those anchors moor them especially, and more than us. How else would it change? And don’t we need change? Perhaps this is the purpose of war among humans.

    “I’m really optimistic that Abrams tanks are possible in the future and I am sure that fighter jets like F-16s, F-15s, or Gripen from Sweden will also be possible,”

    The Abrams is a design from about 1973. The F-16 is 1976. The F-15 is 1972. That’s “Soviet-era” and way past Soviet era. Russian “Javelins” were blowing up Abrams like roman candles a few years ago in one theatre, I think it was Yemen. They’re also too heavy, too complicated, and use far too much gas: supply chain, supply chain, supply chain. At 10,000 miles.

    He then says he wants Leopards and Marders too. Does this guy know anything about war? Supply chain. So you want 4 different units in the field at once for 4 different parts and 4 different mechanics and gear to fix them?

    But go ahead and try them if you want. I’ll just use a $10,000 drone to blow up your $1,000,000 rocket in the butt like “W” said, all day long. Zero mile supply chain.

I mean, we never attacked/invaded/occupied/war crimed anyone, right? All aggressive attacks, occupation, and wars of expansion are good, peaceful and right…when we do them.

    Or else what? You’ll send in the 3,000 men of the 101st? And hold one tiny village? To “warn” you need to have forces to enforce your will.

    “claiming it had obtained incriminating evidence of those activities during the ongoing military operation.”

    Well that’s easy then! We read your claims, publicize them widely through the West, and find out if they’re full of s—t or not. Problem solved. Oh wait: you won’t look? …And you somehow know you don’t want to look, before looking? Uh-huh. So. Weird.

    And Fauci just funded the creation of a far more deadly MonkeyPox, to kill off the gay men he missed the first time around. Don’t worry: after creating what nature wouldn’t, when it gets released, it’ll be an “accident”. So all good, right? Oopsie!

    “the remaining EU funds owed to Poland will also be frozen. This is no surprise given that the EU establishment has abandoned any pretense of even-handedness.”

    I can’t believe people ever bought this and I was the crank for warning them. What I learned was, you can’t buy dinner by being right.

    “The objective is to make Poles vote the right way and choose the right government.”

    Pshah! That’s crazy! They would never put in a government, then attack that government to cause another Prime Minister to be installed from the Banking Industry just 45 days later, so they can “vote right” and “choose right”, re-capturing them back for the WEF and EU, right London? It’s just crazy that someone like me could even suggest it!

Facebook cut in half and the indexes it is part of rises. Huh. On a totally unrelated note, Switzerland is the biggest holder of U.S. stocks, especially Apple. Don’t know why that popped up just now. Probably nothing.

    “diesel supplies were “unacceptably low” and that President Joe Biden’s administration had “all options” on the table to reduce prices.”

    Having never heard of markets, this all made sense to them. The people, having never read of capitalism in school, agreed. Okay, very slowly now: Biden’s price reduction…A) raises supply or B) lowers supply? HIGHER prices INCREASE supply. LOWER supply INCREASES prices.

    As with other price controls he can pick EITHER low prices OR supply, but not both. But markets would exist under “Capitalism,” and we don’t have that.

    “History, most recently the Arab Spring and Colour Revolutions, shows that a dangerous political void is more likely than liberalisation.”

    Yes, but you have a meta-assumption that they prefer peace. They do not. The goal is to exhaust the world with hardship and conflict, so people will say yes to “Build Back Better” under their new Maitreya.

    “The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion.

    We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.”

    Does that look like any strategy you see anywhere today? Any questions?

    Unless you know it’s a RELIGION, you can’t understand it.

    “Over the last several months, I have described the demands of climate activists as fanatical”

    It’s a RELIGION. Fanatics are a term reserved for religions. That is: people of faith and belief, not discussion and objective evidence.

    “Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.” ― Voltaire

    Do we see both? And can we imagine a goal where making people believe only absurdities and commit constant atrocities is a winning tactic?

    “[The people will] be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Our Religion (Lucifer, Apollo, the Light Bearer), brought finally out” Who wouldn’t want that? He has the word “Light” right in the name! Love and Light, children.

    But it’s just a couple crazies, not the top influencers of most major parties:

    Polemos, that depends. In theory, you can’t have infinite growth on an finite earth. Even if the entire planet were made of oil, we would run out. …Or convert one form of matter to another. So that’s not the issue. And suppose there is abiotic oil. Certainly it seems to be improbably deep under the surface to be dead dinosaurs – like +30,000 feet at Deepwater Horizon. That’s not the point either: it could be too expensive to lift, not energy dense enough, like shale isn’t, or even if both were okay, it may not refill any faster than conventional oil. Even 10x as fast would make it “Nonrenewable” for our human purposes. I’d like to know more about how biotic oil seems to be all over the planet at 30,000 feet, (Brazil’s megafield, off the continental shelf is another one), but that’s not the point either.

    The point is all the oil we KNOW we have. We’re directed by media to turn our attention to everywhere it’s running out, like Saudi. And they are indeed pulling a +95% water cut on Gawar, which is a field so large it takes almost all their other fields combined to match it. Texas was similar, and there doesn’t seem to be much there, and it ain’t refilling fast. But what about the OTHER places?

    How much is in Iran? A: most of it. They’ve been essentially embargoed for 40 years. How much is in UAE? Well, they’re only THINKING about building a multi-decade pipeline through Syria, thus the war. So there must be multi-decades there, and enough not only for themselves, but all Europe. That’s a lot of oil. (And oil products). What about Yemen? You think oil stops at the border and Saudi is interested in embarrassingly conquering Yemen for their camel production? Er…I think not. Untapped oil. What about ANWAR? That’s been shut in 20 years. How about the new Leviathan and other fields off Cyprus and Lebanon? More mega-fields, generational oil. What about Venezuela, which is shut in for poverty, not producing much? There’s reason to think there’s probably oil off shut-in states North Korea and Cuba. Japan thinks there is in the Sakhalin. Certainly there is oil in Sudan, thus the war, and East Africa, thus the war. Angola, thus the war, Nigeria, thus the war…gee there sure seem to be a lot of Americans and a lot of wars wherever oil is found, and somehow the war always STOP oil and prevent the flow, like in Libya, big producer now shut-in.

    We know from US and Russian actions they both believe there is a lot of oil in the Arctic, which we already know from Alaska and ANWAR. …And not too many dinosaurs and algae at the arctic circle, more questions how it got there, but there sure seems to be enough to fight over. More fields.

    And what about Russia? They’re not selling the crown jewels, the last drop of oil. They have plenty, enough to sell as well, and no problems finding more to fill a new and ENORMOUS NordStream2. Which was going to run flat-out for a generation before the West blew it up.

    So as I say, Europe may be so idiotic, so self-destructive, so suicidal as to “Run out of oil” but that’s an active choice. Russia would sell them all they want cheap, and probably fill the United States too. Clearly Russia and Iran alone could fill the world for 40-80 years. …But they don’t WANT that. Because then Russia and Iran would be as rich as Saudi, and buy all Congress and some of the media like Saudi has. No: we need to STEAL Iran and Russia: Saudi and Israel kill Iran; Europe and the US kills Russia. To the victor go the spoils. The spoils of 80 years more oil they put on ice with their Western Embargoes, just for such a time as this for the a-stealin’.

    Now the planet may still run out of oil then, and probably will. But that’s the only time horizon I need to make decisions about. By 2100, we’ll probably have quantum reactors creating zero-point energy, air-wired to your car with TeraGigaHertz transmission, and matter synthesizers as well. 80 Years is enough, thank you.

    And from ONLY what I’ve said: no abiotic, no amazing Gawar-finds like Gull island, no new unexpected oil states appearing in Botswana or Ireland, we already know we have enough oil if the rates stay here. And I think at least some of those happy surprises are likely. What we have is not an “Oil Shortage: but a POLITICAL problem, as oil states like the US, (2nd largest) blow up our competition worldwide, every DAY, for 40 YEARS, started a world-wide unlimited oil war in 2002,(100 years! McCain promised) And are presently blowing up Germany, the size of France, and Ukraine, the size of France, just to keep oil prices and profits high. And the US-Dollar-Oil system humming.

    …But that doesn’t mean WE will get the oil that exists. At war, with political-caused crises, and dissolving our world financial system, it’s actually more likely we WON’T get the oil. Just as we were flooded with oil in the Great Depression and people froze anyway. Congratulations, there’s lots of oil: get a woodstove and a bicycle.

    And I wasn’t being gleeful, I’m dead serious. Train and arm as you can because thanks to us and the corresponding Swiss corruption, you’re headed toward defenseless.

    “Progressive” Democrats Formally Retract Call for Diplomacy in Ukraine”

    Well that figures. Antiwar for 24 whole hours. Until the twitter bots said they were out of the cool girlz club. Guess we gotta go murder some kids now! I know what you did last summer.

    But that’s okay: they’re also for any and every violence in Israel, so…

    “Vitrenko explained that “about 40% of the power generation plants were destroyed” by recent Russian airstrikes.”

    I have not heard that. I heard the took out the distribution, so as not to have to rebuild the expensive generation plants later. Not that “The Plants” aren’t out, but hitting the outgoing substation is different.

    I can’t credit Webb on this. Doesn’t look like peace to me and I need more confirmation.

    “ Exposure of Ukraine’s ‘Dirty Bomb’ Plans Caused Stir in Kiev – Russia (RT) “

    Let’s rephrase the Bomb thing this way: Ukraine is losing the war and is out of men and guns. The only way to stall the newly 10x Russian invasion and save Odessa…and not be landlocked with half of Europe under Russian control…is to turn part of the coast into a no-go zone. Because it’s like a game with specific goals: when Russia reaches Odessa, the war is over. Only cleanup remains. They’ve chosen which area they want to sacrifice to “save Ukraine” by stopping Russia from reaching Odessa. Ze must destroy Ukraine to save it. Are other nations at war any less crazy? Not really. Those three parameters are perfectly logical.

    Does that whole thing make sense now? As opposed to Russia…doing something…cuz PutinPutinPutin?

    So…looking at arms sales, it’s like they’re directing all the world’s money to another part of the Mafia operations. First, family needs money, gets the mayor to funnel $200Billion to the bookies. Like the 1B covid doses for 100M people. People get suspicious, that catches on, and so they move the money over to the construction racket. Now twice as much, twice $200 Billion. That’s the Arms producers in the MIC. Doesn’t matter! It’s all circling back to the same family, the same Mafia, the same enforcers, rackets, and Capos. So what’s next?

    Arson probably. Burn down all the people’s houses, rob them first, collect the insurance. In a collapse and a war on the people. A few holdouts die. Classic mafia shakedown. So who else have they decided to hand multi-billion no-bid contracts to lately? ESG is sort of a sideline, organic and not taxpayer money and doesn’t count.

    Anyway, when there isn’t a dirty bomb because of the searchlight-making media exposure, everyone will say they were making it up.

    One tidbit they had but can’t be confirmed: UK DefMin flew to DC personally. Rather than use a SCIF? So we have no secure communication between allies that close now? …Possibly not. The rumor was that someone had infiltrated the communications of that level and that’s how the dirty bomb plan was exposed. …Or so they made them THINK that’s how it was exposed. Note: if the Pentagon is the one fighting Blinken, it’s child’s play to infiltrate your own SCIF in your own routers. Then to stop the war, they leak the info. This is all above-rumor, practically no evidence, but it was said and is interesting.

    “the Russian allegations appear to have fallen on deaf ears, with Ukraine dismissing the claims as absurd,”

    As Ukraine is shelling a live nuclear plant for a month, invade it twice with heavy weapons and men, and the UN can’t figure it out. Yeah, totally cra-cray. The end of all logic and reason in the West that they can believe this.

    Ritter, etc seem to think the UN or West have meaning or are at all relevant here. They’re not. The audience to the bomb PR campaign is the Global South. The UN is already a lost cause and has been for years, at least since 2014 when they approved all genocides, but also in Syria, where they loved invasions, murders of everybody coast to coast, stealing oil across an open desert, and endless high-power weapons to next-level terrorists. After making up chemical attack frauds and stamping their approval. Since the UN, NATO, and West are the ones who invented the plan and approved it, they are in favor, fund, and fabricate global nuclear terror and the use of WMDs on civilians – and have for decades in voluntary wars of aggression – why would Russia warn THEM? They are establishing if this happens, the Global South and 7B people should side with BRICS and ring-fence the WMD-using Colonial aggressors as a pariah zone. More for me! Brazil can then NOT be colonized and spend their own money being prosperous at home instead. Win-Win.

    But again, the point here is The UN is irrelevant. Ceased to exist. Has no meaning. Stop thinking about it. But they won’t. Every day I hear how Russia is the USSR. Like: you guys are pundits! How can you stuck persistence of vision for 30 years after something is no more, has ceased to be? STOP.

    “The Pentagon chief spoke with Minister of Defense Alexey Reznikov to “reaffirm the unwavering US commitment to support Ukraine’s ability to counter Russian aggression,”

    …But we’re not in the war. So our “Commitment” means nothing then? Because we didn’t take action? Or it DOES mean something, and we’re “in the war.” Pick one.

    “Biden today: The pandemic is a “global health emergency”

I don’t care about that, people disagree, only that a thing and it’s #Opposite can’t both be true and maybe we should notice that. The end of Logic and Reason itself among the People is far more disturbing. That is the end of #Science.

    “ IEA Warns of ‘First Truly Global Energy Crisis’ (RT)”

    Speaking of “End of logic”. There is no crisis. It’s not a crisis when I refuse to go to the gas station and pump the gas they are happily selling to me, with a credit card I happily have. The only crisis is a mental health crisis that I refuse to go. And the mental health crisis that everyone plays along that my make-believe is real and doesn’t slap me out of it instead.

    “The German economy has already been destroyed by the war [in nearby Ukraine]”

    Again. Not by the war. Just as they claim “Covid” destroyed business, learning, and mental health. No: your irrational, unnecessary, and counterproductive LOCKDOWN did that, and that is just as all data up to that point, every expert ever asked, predicted it would. But we reversed all the experts of 50 years and did it anyway. Same with “The War” destroyed Germany. How? Germany’s not in the war.

    No. THEIR EMBARGO, and REFUSE to eat the energy they must have or die, is the reason they are destroyed. Clear, obvious, indisputable national suicide. Because of a war somewhere else that never touched them.

    No one notices. Just like Covid. …And I don’t think that’s the right parentheses to add there. He did not specifically say “[In Ukraine]”. Because it wasn’t the war in Ukraine that killed them, it was the direct attack by the United States on Germany that killed them. An open act of war by the Anglos, which will probably kill a million + or so, far beyond 911. That’s “the war” and why he phrased it this way.

    “ MSNBC Legal Analyst Declares Trump Could Be Charged with Manslaughter (Turley)”

    So silly it doesn’t bear comment. The end of logic and reason. So Trump has a duty and committed murder for failing to act, but after a week of warning the people actually in charge and with authority: the Pentagon, DC Mayor, Pelosi, they do NOT have a duty to act and did NOT commit murder. And whose murder? Babbitt’s? No one else died in the “most deadly attack in America ever, bigger than 911 and Pearl Harbor combined”. No one noticed. Doesn’t matter. Because that’s #Reality and therefore have no contact or engagement with that.

    Some people think Russia should go all in. Empty out Russia, use the bombs, finish off Kiev in a day.

    …While knowing NATO is waiting for them. Waiting for them to be depleted, waiting to be overextended, waiting for any escalation that can mobilize NATO and Western Europe.

    If they don’t do this, but keep most of their arms to defend their OWN country, sending only 1/3 of the numbers that the Ukrainian army has, then they’re failures for being too slow and not winning enough. …Although the winning already has revealed NATO’s hand and their intent.

    Okay, well, I guess they’re all useless weaklings then, fighting Ukraine with 1/3 the recommended forces just cause they can’t count to ten. No, I’ll stick with my present theory, thanks. Yeah it sucks to be advancing when the defenders outnumber you 3:1 AND the home field advantage is commonly considered 3:1. So 6:1 against. With 1,000km front. And wars are the creators of phrases “SNAFU”, “FUBAR”, and “BOHICA.” — If things are going well, the enemy isn’t doing their job. With the most advanced satellites ever created on planet earth reporting on you.

    No, things are going as well as can be expected. Maybe Ukraine held out a little longer, but for what gain? Fewer men and fewer countrymen for generations? Oh well. And what’s the other side? Kiev’s going to occupy Moscow? Where’s this going? A country the size of France thinks they can occupy 12 time zones?

    “30 House Dems Urge Dramatic Shift in Biden’s Ukraine Policy: ‘Get Serious about Diplomacy or Risk Nuclear Miscalculation’”

    Wha Wha Wha Wha? Watching, ‘cause surely this can’t be real. There is no anti-war alarm. There are no anti-war protests. What’s the point? We’re not in a democracy, and didn’t work the last 30 years. 50 years, since Vietnam? Can see how nations are shoved into war if they burrow long enough. And history will report “we the people didn’t care.” No, but historians are brown-nosers who’ll believe anything the Government PR releases say. We did care, but aren’t wasting our time either.

    “Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine,”

    So those 30 Congressmen seem to think the U.S. is running the war or they would ask Ze and not Biden. I guess those Congressmen don’t know what they’re talking about except Biden said “Support the war” “We’re in the war” “We’ll support the war to the end” and sent $50B War dollars there, no questions asked.

    But: Silly Russia! We’re not in the war that the President and Congress say we’re in! When you’re bombed, it’s them, not us!

    Oh and also: They sent a strongly-worded letter? Uh-huh. Oh no, Karen, whatever shall we do? They spoke to the manager.

    …Apparently we’re now buying Russian oil in bulk. Oh wait: it’s okay since they rebranded it “Chinese” oil. …Who we are also at war with. Why? Because Brandon already stole the multi-billion dollar SPR kitty and blew it on election rigging. So he’s both stealing, AND election tampering AND giving aid and comfort to the enemy. No charges. Give Russia and China all the money you want, THEN give Ukraine and Taiwan all the money you want. …Because it’s not their money. It’s ours. And no price it too high to pay when somebody else is footing the bill.

    “Israel Destroys Iranian Drone-Making Plant in Syria”

    …But it’s not an act of war when WE do it. Surely Iran should blow up a Jerusalem pharmaceutical plant just to be fair, right?

    Glad you covered the “Biden Passed the Student Loan Bill” quote. That’s just…beyond. And it’s jsut like his lifetime of plagiarism and lies: somehow nobody cares. It’s always okay when he does it and gets the most black men imprisoned in the history of the world.

    Gas: that is not a stable chart. Are there derivatives attached to these markets? Because it’s hard to see how somebody doesn’t go under and take a cross-default chain with them. Like Credit Suisse? But never DeutscheBank, well known to be the largest and worst shape, also in the direct center of both bankruptcies and energy markets. With no Fed swapline. No, never. This is fine. Everything’s fine.

    ““..the UK “rejected Russia’s allegations that Ukraine is planning actions to escalate the conflict.”

    Shoigu would not have called if he didn’t have the names and addresses of the people in the plan. And their MI6 connections. So, do we get to hear any of it? Nope. They just “rejected it”. Trust your government’s war department: when have they ever lied? Yellowcake, mushroom clouds, WMD and ties to al-Qaeda, they’ll greet us with flowers, dominoes, Agent Orange is safe as water, remember the Maine, the Indians attacked us, and we never cracked the Japanese code in the Pacific.

    “Ukraine is facing its harshest winter,”

    This seems unlikely unless they’re putting babies in pots. However, I have to say that was back when population was low and everyone collected firewood, which is no longer true. So lacking even the infrastructure and tradition…that’s pretty bad. What do you do, ship and build 12 million kachelofens at 500 kilos a piece? So Europe has granted refugee status to all 43 million Ukrainians, right? Surely they have a better claim than a 5 million migrants that crossed 10 safe countries but thought the job prospects were better in Denmark than India.

    I could say the same about pot-bellied stoves here. Most places we have enough wood for a township lying around in old lots and roadsides, unused, but there’s no social or physical mechanism to use it. Nor can there be when U.S. law is broken.

    “The Ukrainian government employs the same tactics as Al-Qaeda in its conflict with Moscow,”

    Normally this is over the top. State entities are not the same as non-state entities, and yes, governments are foundationally a local mafia and protection racket from the get-go. But in this case, both Ukie and Al-Q are expressly run by the same people: Langley. The guys who just nuked Germany. Openly. In fact, better than nuked them, via energy. And made them shut up about it, too.

    “If Russia alleges that Ukraine is preparing something, it means only one thing: that Russia itself is preparing it,” Zelensky said”

It’s written into every news department, every embassy, and every court of law worldwide. No? Well, carry on then: we haven’t needed evidence in 50 years and aren’t going to start now.

    We cannot keep the station safe without guarding it,”

    Sure you can! That’s the same argument we have here about outlawing guns! If all the good people are unarmed, all the bad people will suddenly become good and not like violence anymore! You can see we believe it since we’re disarming our own military right now!

    ““…the idea that Russia and the US will just fight an infantry war and cordially accept the results is ridicu-fucking-lous..”

    But everyone told me – Petreaus, Graham, Senators, CIA directors, generals – that we can just nuke the Russian Army and they’ll just sit around and take it? What fresh hell is this? And we really REALLY are a-gonna win with a 10,000 mile, trans-ocean supply chain and zero manufacturing against Russia with a 0 mile supply chain and open mines and factories. “Always fight your wars across two continents at the end of a 10,000 mile supply chain,” –Lao Tsu.

    “I’d vote for fucking AOC if she vowed to not give another dime to Ukraine and push for a peace settlement.”

    Plastic recycling has turned out to be a “failed concept” used by global corporations as a “smokescreen,”

    As us cynics said at the time. Greenpeace and others had gotten the edge on pollution, so corporations supported “recycling” therefore, all their useless consumerism and quadruple packaging – now octouple packaging thanks to Amazon – would be YOUR FAULT. You smelly consumers who didn’t recycle like slave-harvesting Coke and Foxconn told you to! “Do What You’re Told!!!” …Worked like a charm.

    …Of course, here, Greenpeace only notices FORTY YEARS after they’ve been scammed. I’m sorry, Greenpeace: too soon? The news on recycle rates came in ONE YEAR after broad recycling began. We’ve known every year since then. Still consumering. Still quadruple packaging. Still not re-using, jars or coke bottles.

    And if you think plastic is bad, try glass: it takes much more energy to re-cast it. Here’s the problem though: people have to be mature and responsible and not poison every bottle before returning it for refill. And we are not (social) agreement capable.

    “It’s hard to escape the awful feeling that Western Civ has a death wish”

    Yes. They are #AntiLogos. The opposite of #Logos is their god. The opposite of the “Way, the Truth, and the Light.” Therefore they are anti-Logic, anti-Reality, anti-Honesty, anti-Practical, and anti-Life. This is not hyperbole or slander, this is literal and accurate truth. They HAVE a death wish. They ARE Anti-Life. Abort your latest baby today! Kill 9 and the 10th is free! …What sort of people or culture think, feel and behave this way? One with a death wish, that worships and elevates holidays of death, fear, horror, and darkness like Halloween as their biggest day of the year.

    And on Kunstler’s article, Yes, the Bank of England immediately attacked the Prime Minister. By attacking Britain as a country, the British currency, and the people of Britain themselves. And they won, so they put in the head of Goldman Sachs for themselves. Not even trying to hide it: Goldman Sachs now runs England. Any questions?

    Truss stayed for three Scaramuccis. So 3 Scaramucis = 1 head of lettuce?

    Lira, if you’re not watching, things are coming fast: NATOKraine is setting up a dirty bomb, since Ukrainians are Russians, their intel in their own backyard is impeccable. Now why dirty bomb? Pollute their “own” nation? Well, Ukie murdered prob +100,000 soldiers so far, with no guns, into machine gun fire, so we know they don’t care. But that’s a stretch for no reason.

    The reason is this: NATOKraine needs to involve the war. The dirty bomb can “involve” NATO…which isn’t involved by funding $50B dollars, stealing near-trillion dollars, blockading Russian ports and openly saying with every President and Congressman “We’re in the war.”? So understand.

    BUT, so NATO gets involved. Then what? Why? Well Lira says the 101 is in Romania. What’s nearest Romania? Odessa. And yes, we know Russia hardly cares about the whole black coast past Crimea, but they do want Odessa. Intact. SO – Stage: There ain’t no false flag! How dare you! Russia, which has real, whole nuclear weapons second to none for generations, is bombing their OWN province, with a run-down, fly-by-night backyard terrorist weapon. That’s like a guy with a jet fighter using a slingshot. That’s Logic! I’m S.M.A.R.T.

    NATO drafts General Umbridge into service: “Harrumph I say! Well, good sir, that’s not cricket! We simply must, MUST invade Ukraine!” So NATO sends the 101, where? Odessa. As a hostage.

    …Why is this crazy? They already tried to shell and occupy the nuclear plant, and take all the UN inspectors hostage. …Twice.

    Odessa is a sacred city to Russia, so, we take that and start leveling it like Kabul instead. …Blowin’ up some folks! Blowin’ up some ultra-sacred, irreplaceable statutes n’ stuff on NATO orders like ISIS did in Syria! McCain kissin’ the guy on the lips! On camera.

    Having no weapons, no army, and no time, with Russia fully mobilized by Nov 1, it’s the only leverage they’ve got. …I mean, unless you expect them to sit around, take their medicine, have the whole western financial system collapse, drag all the rich guys out of their houses and beat them in front of their bunkers.

    Harumph! Well I say!” Clearly setting off a thousand dirty bombs on a thousand dirty slavs is better than that!

    Can you see why even the Pentagon might be mad enough to depose a few Blikens and Nulands rather than let the US suffer as a evil, pariah, nuke-anybody war-of-aggression state for all time?

    “Ukraine will need more than 10,000 mobile power generators and warming centers during the winter.”

    Go Green! Germany is all for green, that’s why we want war, blowing oil into the Baltic sea, ships sinking in the Black sea, diesel use for tanks unseen in 50 years, and 12 months of non-stop generator use. Go windmills, Energiewende Forever!

    “if Russia played the trump card, which is to not nuke Kiev, but nuke a US military base somewhere outside Europe in response to the US army being in Ukraine. It would be a terrible development, but basically unavoidable.” -Aspnaz

    We have the same baseline perspective, which is chilling. However, thankfully, I feel there are several cross-currents to avert it. Carefully, painstakingly, excruciatingly engineered at enormous cost and care to avert it. What can happen is the Pentagon pulls the plug on the whole fiasco. Just like they did day 1. Got it all rolling, then didn’t show up, either as pre-planned, in coordination with, or as a result of, the Russian hypersonic strike on the NATO training back in March. Europe, Davos, everybody had it all figured out. The spending keeping things afloat, the escalation, the sanctions. Then the Yanks never showed up. Not really. The war drags out and is lost, but not in a way that if helpful. Owning only the Executive and Lettermen, they attempt multiple escalations, attacks, and now nukes. Pulled them in, then held position while Powell pointed the heavy artillery at them.

    What if the Pentagon goes home? What if they call a war and nobody shows up?

    Think the Pentagon doesn’t have things to do with a broken election and non-stop federal felonies at home?

    Hey, I thought they wanted the U.S. to follow the “Russian Revolution” plan? Now not so hot when they remove the Czar? Remove the court advisors? Don’t have a Red vs White Bolshevik Civil War?

    I guess we’ll all see and can’t avoid it.

    “Goldman Trader Asks If “There Is Some Global Coordination Amongst Central Banks to Support Markets After Friday Morning’s Rout””

    20 years after the PPT, (Working Group on Financial Markets), 40 years after the ESF (Exchange Stabilization Fund), 5 days after the Fed hands Credit Suisse $6B ($11B?) for free, they still ask this, it’s still a conspiracy theory.

    Why not? Here’s a conspiracy theory that supply and demand exist:

    “New Data Shows Immigrants Are Driving Down Wages for German Workers”

    Well they’re Socialists, so they don’t believe in that sort of thing. Because there’s no supply and demand, you can print $6,000 Billion and it won’t cause inflation. Ask any Nobel Prize winning Bernank’!

    “ Sunak Set to Be Next UK PM as BoJo Suddenly Backs Out”

    The British people voted wrong again. So we fixed it. All hail democracy! That’s freedom! …The freedom to do exactly what you’re told, or else.

    He’s right, we haven’t talked about the quadrillion, or X quadrillion in derivatives lately. It won’t really matter: like a nuclear war, you won’t miss it and can’t do much about it. A financial bunker of useful things, non-system currencies.

    “Russia Says Kyiv Preparing False Flag “Dirty Bomb” Detonation in Ukraine (EWN)”

    We already had that. They attempted it at Zap, what, a dozen times? And of course Russia will dirty bomb and make uninhabitable one of four of their own Russian Oblasts. Maybe they’ll dirty bomb St. Petersburg, why not? Makes as much sense as anything the West says.

    Don’t miss the point here: Russia won’t use nuclear weapons and the West wants them to. What’s the one clause in their defensive nuclear declaration? “Weapons of mass destruction” on Russian territory. Which Kherson is now. So we provide! Dirty Bomb by MI6? Nuclear war and all the wonderful, juicy, much-desired total war solutions long-planned therein. 500M world population, Eco-Green, currency reset. They leave the bunkers in flying cars and rule the 12 regions of the Hunger Games, mining coal with their bare hands. I didn’t say they were smart, I just said that’s what they wrote was their goal for the world.

    Lira, above, U.S. is the sole targeter of HIMARS. They shot 27 HIMARS at the evacuating civilians from Kherson. YAWC. Yet Another War Crime. The Russian air defense shot them all down, as if the HIMAR was a spitball straw.

    “French President Emmanuel Macron called on Sunday for a peace deal in Ukraine, but insisted that Kiev will dictate the terms of such an agreement.”

    Like these other nitwits, he’s had a long dearth of being punched in the face and needed to be stuffed into more lockers at school. Maybe he’s never heard of “War” before and how wars go. Manny, can ya hear me calling? WINNERS dictate what happens in wars, LOSERS, like you, accept the terms or are shot in the street. That’s why you don’t start wars unless there’s no alternative.

    “UK “stands ready” to “de-escalate this conflict.”

    If Russia totally surrenders, withdraws, gives 4 Russian states and Crimea, and accepts Ze marching an occupying army into Moscow. Then London will de-escalate.

    “They must withdraw from our territory and leave us our land within the internationally recognized borders of 1991.”

    Meanwhile, unlike 1991, Ukraine joins NATO, genocides Donbass, and has first-strike nukes 5 minutes from Moscow, breaking all three relevant treaties over 30 years: Berlin, Ankara, and Minsk. So YOU obey the law, we break it. The only Power is Power. The only Purpose of power is more power. “Power” is the power to set the exception to the rules.

    “Not only would an assault on these territories present a formidable military challenge for Zelensky’s forces,”

    As they live in irreality, they pretend that this is all theoretical and has never been tried.

    “ Scholz and Von der Leyen Want a Marshall Plan for Ukraine (NOS)”

    When you have a compounding debt system, you must double the money in circulation each unit of time. Any excuse will do, and doesn’t matter really who the money goes to, because otherwise the entire system collapses. They have most recently used Finance (‘01) then in half the time housing (‘08) then half the time, Covid, then half the time Ukraine. So since they didn’t get a WWIII kicked off and Europe is collapsing, they need to print the money for non-war instead: the $50B to Ze isn’t enough to outrun the debt compounding.

    So, nothing to do with Ukie, war, Marshall, or anything else. Only Banks merged with Government. All wars are banker’s wars?

    “the 101st Airborne recently joined the 100,000 American soldiers already deployed to Europe.”

    Wow! That’s 3,000 soldiers per nation. Or one tiny, tiny village. So much easier to erase. What are they thinking? Are they that political group who is really, really bad at math?

    And also reading? The 101st is…what? “Air-borne” “Aehr-boooornne” As in, “Gets in the air, parachutes in”. In where? Behind enemy lines. So where are they going and why is parachuting there most appropriate? Without any support, no resistance, no armor, no invasion, no air support?

    Maybe they really need the 1st Armored Division, Old Ironsides, instead? Nevermind: logic and facts. We don’t do that. We send Power Puff Girls in high heels because “Everyone’s equal.”

    “ Weaponized Governmental Failure: A Primer (McKay)”

    Cloward-Pivon. They’ve written about it proudly already going back to the 60’s. Very proud of it. Goals: “Burn it all down”. (Burn “It”? Who? Black people, the poor. The rich won’t be affected. Caring, so, so much!!!) Then “Build Back Better”! In global Socialism. …That’s really oligarchic NeoFeudalism. Overwhelming the system so it collapses is going pretty well. Except in Massachusetts and Martha’s Vineyard. They collapsed with only well-mannered 50 tourists. But dey wuz brown!

    “This food is shipped by rail or truck to distribution centers, as for example Chicago, whence it is transshipped to cities like New York.”

    No war (Or IS there? Biden sez) yet we’ve shut off both these already. Reading this article, he hasn’t thought this out very thoroughly. Some have, a lot of militia, preppers, etc, but it’s a complex system that’s difficult to scenario. A change in one variable would throw it wildly. We did do this, remember? During Sandy? Did any of this happen?

    EU Displays ‘Height of Hypocrisy’ – Russia (RT)”

    Sadly, that’s not their height of hypocrisy, just another in the long list of run-of-the-mill everyday hypocrisy. But don’t worry: there’s no level of hypocrisy that the people will finally notice.

    “Russia must also compensate for all the damage the conflict dealt to Ukraine, he added.”

    So Russia is going to save you by selling you gas, then surrendering to Ukraine/EU/NATO. Got it.

    “Schools in England are struggling to pay their electricity and heating bills, and 90% will run out of money next year,”

    Still on about the “Money”. Not that that isn’t an issue too, but the primary issue is no ENERGY.

    ““..the initial WHO estimates were off by 99% for 94% of the world’s population..”

    Only 99%? Scienz! …As we said at the time. That’s still better than their Climate predictions. Like hypocrisy, there is nothing, no possible level of failure, that could ever discredit them or cause doubt.

    ““..more than 20 million Australians have received at least one dose of a Covid vaccine,”

    …That’s why they bought a BILLION doses: for the same party who’s bad at math.

    Again: they only need to save “The System” – the financial, the Bank System – by printing and handing out money. They don’t care if there aren’t a billion people, or even if they deliver a billion doses: please DON’T deliver the product we bought. They MUST print money, so the obvious thing is to direct it to one of any cartel groups who will keep and funnel it FOR us, the liars, and AGAINST our enemies, anyone who tells the truth.

    Africa: seems unlikely, population already leveling there with prosperity, same as every other nation.

    “Justin Trudeau Uses “Administrative Action” to Ban All Handgun Sales in Canada”

    Er…why? We were told it was because of all those thousands and thousands of gun deaths (actually suicides) and crime (actually illegal guns). Is Canada having shootouts in Moosehead and doing drivebys in Mississauga? No? They have brisk sales in handguns? No? So why take them unless you’re really, REALLY planning on going ape-s—t annoying like Ardern has? Starting open concentration camps like Oz?

    “Sandy Hook Families Seek $2.75 Trillion in Damages from Alex Jones”

    This is hilarious, Bill Hicks couldn’t have scripted it better. It’s this sort of complete, irrational, uncaring, unenforcable, unactionable, signal-only nonsense that makes nations collapse. Sort of like when they dug up the Pope and put his corpse on trial. Or when Caligula made his horse a senator.

    Carry on: I wouldn’t change a thing. Why not? They lay similar judgments on the rest of us and claim lifelong slavery isn’t debtor’s prison. Boo-hooing civil rights of a slavery ended 200 years ago, while today’s prisoners, judicial wards, and Nike sweatshops are all-good! Can’t support them and their modern slavery enough! That should really go over with the masses about as well as steak and ketchup.

    “The Middle Class Is Dying! 50% of All American Workers Made Less than $3,133 a Month Last Year”

    As the discussion on minimum wage and inflation. So…how did these 70M people live if they only made $3k? The underground economy is not that big.

    Assange: so why hasn’t Biden released Julian yet? I thought they were worried about threats to Democracy? For that matter, the case was set months ago: why hasn’t BRITAIN released him? for transport? Like the German gold in NY, the logistics of renting a small plane too much for them?

    “The US Army 101st Airborne Division would not” …Go AWOL and be court martialed and put in prison. Well I would think not! But that’s a pretty low bar to set. Newsflash: soldiers offer to go to war! News at 11!

    “Jens Stoltenberg announced that the US-led bloc would significantly increase the number of its forces on high alert from 40,000 to over 300,000.”

    …Then didn’t move a man or plane. No food was supplied, no extra bullets made. No extra integrated maneuvers were practiced. No tanks were shipped. They did put new drum brakes on our 70-year old planes and fed them some oats though. You never can tell.

    “NATO has repeatedly stated that it is not a party to the conflict …Ukraine has received substantial military aid from NATO countries,”

    Intelligence test. Everybody failed.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/101st_Airborne_Division
    How many men are in the entire 101st? Maybe 15,000. That’s 15 days’ shooting. What does the Russian army call the 101st, 0 miles from their own supply chain? A speed bump.

    Now this isn’t entirely true. It actually far worse than that: if 101st enters the war against Russia, Russia will battlefield nuke them…and everybody else…and kill all 15,000, plus 200,000 more in about 10 minutes.

    …But they will ALSO nuke NY, DC, Arlington, Maine, NOLA, Hawaii, SanDiego, San Francisco, Seattle, and both Portlands. So losing all 15k men from KY will be the least of our problems.

    …Maybe you’d like to NOT do this thing now?

    US-Led Force Might Intervene in Ukraine Conflict – Petraeus (RT) “

    And they might shoot if the aliens invade, but we’re not sure. Since he got bounced out of the military in record time, an act unseen by any other traitor or fiend they’ve ever protected, even General-shaped object Milley, what make you think he speaks for anyone? Sounds like if he tells them to start WWIII, they might bounce Petraeus out of the news too.

    But every discredited, murder-for-hire, pretend general — now defense shill gets limitless time in the non-news. So we think they actually represent and speak for the actual soldiers serving there.

    “The military alliance would still likely be bound by its treaty and would only join the conflict if Article 5 is invoked, i.e. if one of its members is attacked, the general believes.”

    So…he’s still pretending if Tallinn is attacked, we will trade all the states above for it? And Britain will trade London, and France will offer Paris?

    So if this war breaks out, Turkey will go ahead and invade Russia? And not change sides? On behalf of Brussels, who has no army of their own, but expects to use and kill all of Turkey’s, after meddling and belittling them for decades?

    No dum-dum: If anyone invokes Article 5, half the states will refuse. A few of the states will resign. Yes, a bunch would stay, etc, but if that’s the case it’s no different than if there were NO NATO AT ALL. Each country would pick their own side according to their position and disregard any previous NATO signatures. Because: war, duh. Whataya gonna do, sue me?

    AGREEMENTS MEAN NOTHING. These are politicians we’re talking about, they break their word every day, or twice a day if they can manage it. “The law is in my mouth”. I get up and INVENT the law according to what cheese I ate the day before. 15 Days to stop the spread, masks and social distancing, mandatory experimental injections, all without a fig of law. They had maskless dinners WITH the AMA, and flew to Florida and palatial Thanksgiving gatherings on the sea.

    There is no law. They are not-agreement-capable. Therefore there is no NATO. …I mean, BESIDES that NATO has no men, no money, and no arms. That should speak for itself.

    So when thoroughly-disgraced Petraeus says something, I listen to him about as much as Sponge Bob Square Pants.

    “The Hungarian Foreign Ministry has rejected EU calls for Russia to be defeated in Ukraine,”

    They’ve already gone far further, claiming they will be marching into Moscow and taking the whole nation. I don’t think that can be walked back. But why bother? The West will collapse on itself, all Russia and China have to do is endure. There’s not a minute the U.S. and London aren’t shooting themselves in the face, and Europe with Germany is setting off Claymores, “Front toward self.”

    Russia Urges UN to Prevent Ukraine’s ‘Terrible Provocation’ (RT)”

    So…as if I need to repeat this…Russia annexed all of Kherson then are blowing up THEIR OWN dam, in order to flood and ruin a few billion dollars of THEIR OWN CITY and Oblast. Why not? Makes about as much sense as anything else. California sets their own cities on fire every year and delays maintenance on their own dam to flood downstream Sacramento to 6’ deep, so same thing I guess.

    But of course in Russian fashion, they need to station their base on top of the dam they are shelling first.

    These tactics are so successful, we MUST give Ukraine $50B in Taxpayer dollars and free healthcare in the middle of a U.S. Depression where even our soldiers are on food stamps. Go on…tell me all about honesty in the media and how you’re fighting disinformation and defending democracy.

    “the world should tell the Russians: “If you strike Bankova Street [the Ukrainian President’s Office], there will be a strike at where you are.”

    “They should tell them this” because Ukraine is not in NATO, and they are a bankrupt nobody. Really? And Russia would believe them if they did? We’re going to trade Kherson for Honolulu? ORlly.

They release the “We’re shutting off your clothes dryer” ads even though they don’t have the meters to shut them off, don’t have the “smart devices” to make them, and don’t have any idea if you’re running it.

    …Just like we said. Hey WHYYYYY would they need to know, would anyone need to call their clothes dryer on their smart phone? …Unless they planned to nuke it from orbit for you, shut off your power, and ruin your clothes by leaving them wet in the middle of winter? Wow! What’s the catch? My baby will love wearing wet and cold clothes! Wrap him up good in that and some saran wrap.

    Dumb. Then Dumb^2. Then Dumb^3. Or maybe Dumb^16 for 256 dumbs.

    Don’t worry, Lithium is the LEAST of our dumb-de-dumb-dumbs right now. …And we still can’t and don’t recycle it. After it is released to the air. During any normal flood like Ian.

    “The last shred of hope for holding Big Pharma accountable for fraud now rests on a lawsuit against vaccine manufacturer Pfizer.”

    You’re kidding, right? We can try them any time, for any reason. Just like we can still bring Bush and Rumsfeld up for war crimes. Why are you protecting them and taking their side? Do you work for Pfizer, or do you not know the law? Hey, what’s the statue of limitations on murder?

    “Inside the Proton, the ‘Most Complicated Thing You Could Possibly Imagine’ (QM)”

    Because, Science: they have no idea what they’re talking about. They say the “tiny rocks” theory of materialism isn’t true: “Protons” exist in a “haze” that doesn’t exist at all because it doesn’t even HAVE a form, you just said. Yet continue with Scientific materialism as if they didn’t JUST say that the sentence before. More to the point, we can be sure their “tiny rocks” materialism doesn’t work and is false because they haven’t moved forward on this theory in 100 years. Too soon? Maybe we could just try a little more, for another 100?

    …Science: resistant to all and any data. Even the more obvious, well-proven, century-substantiated ones. And they wonder why no one believes them or takes them seriously.

    So this “thing” that has no form, also has a form, and is a thing. Because “things” that have no form are really “things”. So when I look it up in the “Thing” dictionary, what’s there? A white line? Blank space?

    STOP THINKING ABOUT “THINGS”. There is no “thing”. It’s consciousness. Energy. I swear we are all going to die shortly with how stupid Science is and the brainless religion of priests and faith that’s grown up around it.

    And if you perjure yourself before Congress concerning wiretapping the entire population of the U.S. for years, then lie about it before, during and after? Public service. Protect that pension, call anyone firing you a threat to democracy.

    I see a lot of EU booking a conference room. For negotiating how they’re going to get billions in free gas without paying for it. For how they’re going to steal Russia’s money without “paying’ for it. 6 months from now. How they’re going to get weapons to Ukraine 1-6 years from now.

    No conference room? Who blew up the pipeline and all of Europe’s industry for the next 10 years. No interest. Sweden refuses to release the info because….they’re…protecting Russia? Not ’cause it’s Kagan and the WEF at all. Nope.

    Talk continues merrily about how Kiev is going to march into Moscow. The End. That’s like Texas declaring war on the U.S.. Not that Texas is small, mind you, but seeerrrrriously… The combined U.S. would destroy them handily, without bothering themselves too much. Same with Ukraine.

    Speaking of Kiev winning a land war in Asia, attacking Russia in the winter, then being the first country to take over the world (who knew?) being the capital of the planet and Ze the Kaiser, Ze is deciding who will be the Prime Minister in Britain. No irony. This attracts no attention and is completely normal.

    “because he grew up very, very poor, that everyone is capable of picking themselves up by their bootstraps.”

    NO wonder they hate him so much. Successful black men are a threat to their existence. Their very reason for being. Their Mommyhood for the poor, let’s say, “non-Garden” children who are primitive and need help. Ugh. The essence the old plantation.

    You really have to be in front of elephants to understand how powerful they are. Or bulls, for that matter. Up close cows will close your field of vision, seeing nothing but fur. If they’re like the new Holsteins, you may not see over them. A toss of their heads can wreck a truck or throw you over the gate. And they’re comparatively small, passive creatures and good fellows.

    Did people miss Redneck has said in passing a few times he’s from Oz? That makes him a different sort of Redneck than the ‘States. And it shows.

    Dora: they already said mRNA was an “operating system” for humans, and they intended to write it themselves and have it all work as wonderfully as Bill Gates did. Shut up and take my money.

    Minimum wage only shows it scarcely matters if there is one or not, just as Libertarians said. The wage is so low now no one comes near it, but I suppose you can hire the neighbor kid for lawn or something they’re not $18/hr productive for. That “no one shows up for work” is exactly right. Okay, there’s no comparison, but let’s say entry-level job $4/hr in 1968, gas 34c, and $3,000/new car. New car today is $30,000. The inflation I can see is 20x, getting to 30x, but we’ll be generous and stick with 10x. So comparative entry level job is? $40/hr.

    Is he paying $40/hr? Okay, well doctors were a few bucks then, mostly cash. Today, the slightest cash healthcare, like stitches on freelance work sites like his would be $2,000-$4,000. Health care costs $1,000/month. So they need another $12,000-odd a year, or $6/hr. So $46/hr. Housing was $14k in 1968. Today you could find $140k but taxes are 10x since 1968, and the average is more like $240k. So 3x income doubled by 2020 = 1/6 or $6,000 more. $3/hr so = $50/hr.

    Get the idea? Is he paying $50/hr to his crew? No way because the client could never afford it. All the money is going to banks, government, and other waste and friction. At $50/hr I’ll drive over to his state and START working.

    Note on that? At 10x since 1968, $3.60 is still very cheap for gas. Go ahead and get a mule to pull your car with 4 people and their luggage 30 miles for $3 and tell me what you think.

    But there’s another thing not mentioned: People WILL work for free. …If they believe in it. In 1900, 1950, people believed, “Hey, we’re raising the family church and barn. I’m building great, cheap houses for our hero vets returning home. We’re building cool cars and going to the moon. I’m really part of something.” Today it’s “OMG we’re going to pave another forest of yellow pine I grew up in, to make the sh—iest, cheapest nail salon and sun-baked McMansion to another rich, indebted moron. Then I can go home and hear my ex-wife berate me after poisoning the kids — both literally, on food, and against me. I do NOT want to do this.” Why show up? If you’re not starving, F it.

    Liz Truss is going to do wonders to British confidence and authority, especially for the young. Perception is: she exists merely to get in and insider trade, made a million for her and her cadre, clocked the time to steal another million in her pension, then left DGAF. And Britain, Parliament, House of Lords, let her and approve of it, don’t bother to hide a thing since they all do the same.

    And they’re not going to quiet quit and stand back to let the system fall when they’re called upon? Why: bless me, they are going to do just what Miss Truss has done! Show up, do nothing, and quietly quit.

    “Biden still refuses to help”

    Help? He and his handlers are the cause. Besides, although he can “help”, his policies, or 30 years of like policies have put us in the same situation. Only our constant, tireless rebellion and agitation forestalled it. …That resistance you in Europe ridiculed us for every minute of every day of every year for 30 years. So yeah, we can send 2-3 food ships and a bag of fertilizer, but what do you think we can do when you’re committing voluntary national…international…suicide? YOU did this: help your own darn selves.

    “Britain’s Stark Choice Ahead – Transformation or Collapse (Nafeez Ahmed)”

    Transformation? But nobody’s ever thought of such a thing! Whatever shall we do?

    Multipolar World Order – Part 3

    “From central bankers to prominent members of various think tanks to political leaders, it seems that the vanguard of the Western unipolar model accept the inevitability of that system’s replacement. Curiously, many of the same people, in responding to the war in Ukraine, have made decisions and advocated polices that are hastening the transition from unipolarity to multipolarity. Again, probably mere coincidence.
    A central tenet of the suggested multipolar world order is to strengthen adherence to the Charter of the UN, thereby establishing genuine global governance. Globalist oligarchs have long advocated exactly the same approach and so do the claimed leaders of the multipolar world order.

    “[The] WEF’s Great Reset and the ambition of the Club of Rome and the ambition of the Council on Foreign Relations and the ambition of the BRICS, is, and always has been, global governance. Mere coincidence, yes?

    That is, “The One True Solution” as presented by Klaus, the WEF, and all “Right thinking people”, is exactly what they all wanted already: world government. No democracy. Run by the exact same people who oversee or even created all the problems and failures we have right now.

    Total coincidence! They’ve all completely changed, and now to go Green live in bark huts, wear loincloths, and eat termites for dinner. Oh wait, they live in 5,000ft mansions, fly to Davos, and eat imported wagu steak and Norwegian lobster?

    “Same thing we do every night Binky: Try to Take Over the World!”

    So Britain’s transformation? Reverse Brexit at a higher level and erase the UK altogether. Trample the British people and remove their sovereignty to… well, anywhere else actually. UN, WEF, Sachs’ carbon Credits, to Kiev, to Beijing, I don’t care, anywhere at all so long as the British people have no options and no self-determination. Or anybody else either.

    Jamie Dimon does not seem on board with this. Nor Powell. I wonder why. Somehow the Americans don’t really support being slaves to pinheads from Europe who treat them like coolies.

    “Xi Gets Ready for the Final Countdown (Escobar)”

    We have essentially declared war on China, and skillfully opened a second front in a war we were already losing. But that’s the GOAL: the U.S. needs to be brought to 3rd world status and lose the war so they can erase the annoying Constitution. Americans need to be so desperate they’ll tolerate anything. As does the German middle class, so starving they’ll sign up to any stupid passport or currency chip you sell them. Unless they are destroyed, you can’t “Build Back Better”.

    We’ll see if Xi plays along. I can’t see Xi either trusting WEF, nor for the uber-racists in Davos to even PRETEND to let Xi run their little clown circus. So now that they’ve created a One Ring to grasp, they are all stabbing each other over it. Morons.

    “the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), BRICS+, and Russian-led Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) – are all proposing peaceful development.”

    Yes, because Twitter is run by the letter agencies, it’s literally impossible for them to allow.

Without that and CIA money, they have no profit, no funding, no business plan, and no purpose.

    US officials have grown uncomfortable over Musk’s recent threat to stop supplying the Starlink satellite service to Ukraine”

    Threat? To stop donating $2M/month for free? Into an aggressive ethnic war? They have strange ideas about what threats are. And also strange ideas about ownership and property. It’s almost as if they think THEY own everything, and you’re just managing it on behalf of government. What political system is it where the Government owns the means of production? And audits, arrests, and imprisons anyone who disagrees with them?

    But what can I say? They hate African Americans.

    “PayPal Faces House Inquiry on $2,500 ‘Misinformation’ Fine Controversy (JTN)”

    I’m fine either way. Either it was 1) True in which case it’s illegal and their company will cease to exist because of customer repudiation, or 2) It was a mistake in which case the billions in losses both by the stock AND by the business disruption leaves them open to bankrupting lawsuits. So which is it? A mistake? Or not?

    A: Actually the RE-posting of that policy was the same as the “mistake”; they just added some more weasel words to confuse it.

    Next question: WHY do they feel the need to steal $2k/pop? With zero parameters and rules as to WHO. It’s because business for PayPal is collapsing and they’re actually bankrupt, isn’t it? Because the “rules” will expand and contract with how much money you need to steal that month to stay solvent, a “Rules-based order.” So 3) they cease to exist because of organic bankruptcy outside of their “mistake”.

    “The strong USD is crippling the word, and that world, as we’ve written numerous times, will be de-dollarizing at a steady and irreversible pace.”

    No, I understand. That wasn’t the point of either of them. The young won’t support the status quo that’s screwing them, they want to “Watch it all burn” as their exciting revolutionary ethos that gives them street (twitter) cred, and will simply stand back.

    Sure there are plenty of places and opportunities left in America, even in the non-state-ordained parts. But you can’t compare, I dunno, the Smithsonian and the Hive, to some rural village in Iran or Indonesia. You should compare their rural village to ours. Or their city hardship, or aggregate, to ours. They’re successful because they’re motivated and work together, a thing no Americans of any culture do, except perhaps the Amish and the Ivy League. 2nd generation of immigrants, that’s gone, that community, and they collapse like the rest of us.

    The thing with Iran is Persians want to make their own culture and will keep it. This is unacceptable, and act of war for the Blob, the Anglo West. All cultures must be the uniculture. All others will be destroyed. Submit or die. The Persians not only won’t, can’t, are strong enough to do so, they don’t even fully understand the idea of NOT supporting and continuing their own culture.

    “How an Illiquid Dollar Ruins the World”

    How an Illiquid Dollar Ruins the World

    If you follow Luongo’s theory this headline is interesting. Not headline but the next list, why,

    ““As Egon von Greyerz and I have said many times, the first overt signs of this danger in the cash-poor (i.e., illiquid) market reared its ‘repo head’ in September of 2019.
    This [repo illiquidity] was a neon-flashing signal of long-term trouble ahead. And it had nothing to do with COVID
    Informed investors in the autumn of 2019 had sifted through all the confusing minutia and noise behind the September panic…”

    “Eurodollars have been floating around the world in greater force since the mid-1950s.”

    That is, Europe found a loophole in the system to regain leverage over the US$ and thus US$ policy.

    “But banks (and bankers) always come up with clever ways to make simple [and liquid] Eurodollar transactions complex [and illiquid], as they can easily hide all kinds of greed-satisfying and wealth-generating schemes behind such deliberate Eurodollar complexity.

    Specifically, rather than foreign banks using U.S. Dollars overseas (i.e., Eurodollars) to make simple, direct loans to corporate borrowers that can be easily tracked and regulated on the asset and liability columns of offshore bank balance sheets, these same bankers have spent the last few decades getting more and more creative with the Eurodollar – which is to say, more and more toxic and out of control.”

    The upshot is, if anything happens to the US, and the US Fed raises rates, the EuroDollar market breaks and causes a worldwide banking crash, forcing the Fed to reverse. Therefore, EUROPE can print and hide any amount of dollars they want and put it on the Fed’s “budget” – and they’re not even the Federal Government! And they make the Fed…and the United States…monetize it as if WE were the cause.

    Ultimately, you can see, they can create EuroDollars and buy reckless (Democratic, Green, War) politicians and hammer our budget. THEN they can double-up on their own EuroDollar creation and create a “hidden” extra trillion or three and drive the de facto debt weight to 250% of US GDP. US dollar CRASH! Euro – which has mechanisms to be backed by gold – replaces the US$. Europe becomes the center of the world and regains all their lost colonies…INCLUDING the United States. …Which they have for quite a while as you see. Britain rigged the 2016 election with the Steele interference, then wrecked most of the US Presidency afterwards.

    Okay, going the other way, what happens if the US$ and US Policy cuts loose the EU and Eurodollar system? Kills the LIBOR peg?

    Yeah, exactly what’s happened since January 2021.

    Now this Swiss guy is complaining US$ market is “illiquid”. WTF? The U.S. is the reserve currency, most accepted, with enormous debt increasing by millions per second. You couldn’t possibly BE more liquid by any definition. …But not in Europe. Because his “Dollar” illiquid is “EURO Dollar” illiquid. Them. Who have no business using our national currency, in a way. So, Europe, don’t like it? Use gold and the ruble. Problem solved. Oh, it’s because YOU created a multi-zillion trillion dollar market and it’s biting you now because you can’t print dollars?

    Yeah, Euro-dollar illiquidity is “Poison” alright. It’s a poison that kills parasites, like all anti-parasite droughts are.

    Last notes: Powell is saving Switzerland, sort of. But who is he not saving, that is not on his “Swap” bailout list? Santander. DeutscheBank. Any important bank in EU-Europe. THEY are going down. And we DID bail them out in ‘08 under The ‘Bernank, a Davos man. Powell’s saying “you’re a big nation and bank: bail yourself out.” Why should we dilute our currency by $10 Trillion for Europe…AGAIN? F’ it. We’ll just keep making “direct loans to corporate borrowers”…you know: the PURPOSE of banks?

    As they are violently #AntiLogos, they are violently #AntiLogic. Tell me: how do you intend to have a “forever war” with Europe frozen, bankrupt, world markets collapsing, no guns, no planes, no bombs, no Ukrainians, and Russia killing 1,000 E. European mercenaries and day without breaking a sweat? That seems like a “Short war”.

    Useless limp-wristed panty-waist Lindsay Graham already said they had to escalate and nuke Russia to NOT have a “forever war”. Ze demanded the same thing. Does anybody know what they’re doing? Jens said “If Russia wins, NATO loses” and collapses forever. That is, a war we and NATO are not parties to.

    So it’s a Schrodinger’s War, we’re both in and out of, and it’s a “Longest-long/Shortest-short war” all at the same time. And you wonder why we all get exhausted and fed up with me posting “#AntiLogos” 5x a week. They are Insane. They have no Logic. There is no Truth in them. As lunatics and con men, what they say often sounds plausible, which is why you need a court of law to examine them. Or failing that, an open marketplace of ideas. Therefore #Truth is their only enemy, which would expose their flailing, unmoored psychosis. Just pay attention: they’ll tell you themselves how Insane they are. You don’t have to do a thing.

    So after the Short/Long war we’re In/Not In, which we’re Winning/Losing, what happens next? Go on: explain it in great detail…

    “We really need the Ukrainian Air Force to be restocked,” he continued.”

    Among other #Insanity, we did this last month. To defeat – actually just to adequately challenge – Russia, Ukraine said quite accurately they need every Jet, every Tank, and every missile system in Europe. Today. Worse, they would need to be delivered on a different-gauge rail, with 100,000 men trained in NATO/West systems they have never seen. They need a couple 10,000 jet flight-hours for their pilots, and a few ten-million gallons of fuel. France and Germany just said they’re providing ZERO. The U.S. said they’d have 10 HIMARS in three YEARS.

    Any questions?

    P.S., following the journey all us environmentalists and young people have, Greta now supports nuclear power. It’s a first major step towards actually understand the system, why it exists, and what would happen if we shut it off. That’s complex. Next-level question is how on earth can it be replaced at all, ever, given the energy use by 8B people? Yet the opposite, that they DO in fact wildly promote and execute, is to KILL all 8B people and have a world “balanced at 500 million”. Carved into stone, even. This week Gates said the failure of the whole energy delivery system is a “good thing.”

    “He added that the borders should return to where they were prior to February 24,”

    Nice, Whitey, going to tell those Russians they have to be shelled by Ukrainians forevermore. Looks good from my office! You became an expert on this when? That’s the problem, the “Ukrainians” are not “Ukrainians.” There are several types of people in an artificial bag called “Ukraine”. We’re so far away we didn’t notice and so arrogant we never asked.

    He promotes peace so the rabid, “blood, gore and guts, veins in my teeth” war mongers can expose themselves. Fine.

    Saker himself is correct: the West lives on fabricated Drama. Russia needs to bore them to death. They have the attention span of a gerbil, so you can’t give them any “Pearl Harbor” moments. They LIVE, exist, breathe, WORSHIP Drama, stories, cartoons, fantasies, and will go bat-s—t for anything. Then the U.S. drops nukes and Bob’s yer Uncle, only the Bunker-dwellers survive. 500M surviving, neofeudal slaves achieved.

    In addition, Russia themselves didn’t like the war, although they thought it necessary. Going slow has revealed the immeasurable hatred and irrational racism of the West, which openly professes to wish to genocide all Russians on their Headline News. All world leaders signed up, gleefully and unasked. People down to the 3rd Conductor in the Orchestra in Cardiff banned all Russian violinists and Tchaikovsky himself. Racist, racist, racist, war-mongering, mass-murdering genociders incarnate. Posting the Blue and Yellow Swastika flag on porches in University towns worldwide. Possibly worse than anything seen with the Jews, we’ll see. The “good and right-thinking” sort of people.

    Russians slowly see and digest this, and are slowly coming around to a far deeper and more grim resolve for war, as well as abandoning Europe, which they consider their home. This may be sad, but it seems indisputable.

    AntiTruth, zealots? Ursula – totally unelected and completely unsupported figurehead – is talking through her hat about replacing 100% of all Russian gas. WTF is she fooling? Germans won’t notice that Ursula sez there’s 100% gas but half the homes in Desden are out? That all the factories are closed?

    …Maybe not. So far there doesn’t seem to be any limit to propaganda power — Maybe this will work too. …The Archdruid, they posted yesterday, points out that Russia collapsed the same: after Chernobyl their credibility and therefore authority took a fatal blow. People removed themselves from supporting “The System” through “quiet quitting” and not open demonstration. Then when a sparrow falls, one border guard in Germany says he won’t bother checking cars, everyone else says “Why not” and the wall falls for lack of support, NOT force of arms.

Crippling debts paid 5x the principle, never cleared. No new ideas they want, even bad ones, like Universal Health Care and Green Power. No release on simplest, totally ignored tasks, like legalizing marijuana. Minimum wage still $7 when no one on earth actually pays that low and even $15 is bankruptcy food stamp impossible.

    We forget how long this had gone on, but Millennial are now 38 years old and still living in the basement in Boston and Sydney? Zoomers done worse yet and are 22? Everyone under 40 – FORTY – does not exist for this (world) government. A system run for themselves. Just Us.

    Must have cleaned up all the “Made by NATO™” branded debris. …Whoops looks like I’m not first to suggest this.

    Rumor: these glue-sniffing inbreds have screwed the pooch. They blew up the pipes in four PLACES, but in good Ukrainian fashion, attacked only 3 pipes. That is, one pipe is untouched and ready to go. At 4x volume of the tiny Baltic/Polish pipe. Rumor has it. Nobody wants to admit it because then Germany could STILL revolt and change sides and then the self-attack by allies is even dumber, more egregious, and more hostile than if they succeeded. That is, now Germany and all Europe knows what they’re willing to do, but the patient survived and is not against the wall: they can take revenge.

    Cait Johnstone: “Of all the face-meltingly stupid narratives that have been circulated about the US proxy war in Ukraine, the dumbest so far has got to be the increasingly common claim that aggressively escalating nuclear brinkmanship is safety and de-escalation is danger.
    Headline: “ “Putin’s nuclear threats are pushing people like Trump and Elon Musk to press for a Ukraine peace deal. A nuclear expert warns that’s ‘dangerous.’”

    Simple, Cait: “War is Peace.” Any questions? “Ignorance is our Strength” and we’re proud of it. We have a whole month for pride, and the other 11 for avarice.

    Astonished Maher is not only allowing guests, but he himself defending…intelligence. Discussion. Doesn’t make me happy though, since it just demonstrates how they’ll get away with it. No reward for being right. No discredit or disgrace for being wrong. No reprimand for being violent or intolerant.

    They get a pat on the back. “Good job, Brownie!” “You’re a Zero Hero.” Do I get restoration for my g-d d—d losses? How about punitive and restitution for theft, murder, and civil rights abuses? Maybe doctors promoting murder would be removed so I don’t risk seeing a murderer on my yearly checkup? Go fly a kite.

    “[NATO] is preparing a massive strike on the Kakhovka hydroelectric plant, located on the Dnieper River, as well as launching massive rocket and artillery attacks on Kherson itself.”

    That’s why they evacuated the city, not because they’re retreating. It’s because they believe when this starts, the city won’t exist. So they need to get Slavs out, like it or not.

    Ritter: yes, the “Russia Bad” story is terrible, but the “Russia Super” narrative is as well.

    Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island – in jeopardy. These states have limited pipeline capacity”

    And 40 years to build more pipelines or more electric transmission to compensate. NIMBY. Hey, if you WANT to go New England Yankee: one wood stove and the rest of the house cold enough to see your breath, I heartily recommend it. Small, antique houses, green everywhere. But you can’t have it both ways. Concrete jungle, nothing “New England” left, and cold winters.

    P.S. can we dump the Jones Act, which was a lobby payoff to a Union/Industry that literally no longer exists? It’s as embarrassing as yearly payouts to the Cooper oak barrel industry, another thing we do 100 years after it stopped existing. But I guess we have to keep the town shipbuilder and cooper in business, because we all know so many of them.

    Government: they’ll subsidize submarines, then pay men to pour buckets of water on them when they’re stranded in the desert. Just. Stop.

    “Lawmakers Seek Emergency Powers for Pentagon’s Ukraine War Contracting (DN)”

    You mean the war we’re not in? Never declared, deny being a party to? Yeah, why bother: words have no meaning to these people. Or the population. Thus logic has no meaning to them either.

    “The Pentagon is considering paying for Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite network in war-torn Ukraine,”

    Paying for things we use. NOPE! That’s not Socialism, which is our religion and form of government. We TAKE things “From each according to their ability.” And give them to ME, insider Party Members. Thanks! Worker solidarity! Keep working for my glory, Comrade!

    Why don’t they pay? EU said “Money’s not an object”, so send the bill to him. Orrrrr…perhaps money IS an object, but only when I’M paying? When YOU’RE paying money is no object.

    “By adding the shots to the childhood schedule, the CDC [..] will transfer liability for vaccine injuries to the federal government..”

    You can’t transfer open fraud and bribery, but if no one prosecutes it even when it’s openly admitted, I guess you can.

    Aluminum: aluminum is highly flammable to oxidize. It also stresses or kills trees. Have we seen any of that? Draw your own conclusions. I say human CO2 has caused global warming that transmorgified the carbon into aluminum on mountaintops. That’s Science. The other Science is that we will never look or ask questions. Unbound aluminum: doesn’t exist in nature, anywhere. Yet here it is everywhere. Well, must be time for a coffee break, that is not suspicious at all.

    “UK Announces Plans to Crack Down on Climate Protests” Fixed it. Like China! NYT says they can only dream of being as wonderful, tolerant, and anti-hate speech as North Korea.

    “The Home Office said the proposed public order legislation would create a new criminal offence of interfering with infrastructure such as oil refineries, airports, railways, and printing presses.
    Such an offence would carry a maximum sentence of 12 months in prison, an unlimited fine, or both.”

    So 12 lashes or slavery for life. Got it. And for disrupting Exxon and Shell and Rupert Murdoch or other pals. Got it.

    From NewsWeek. On the fatal errors of Intolerant Twitter astroturfing. Not kidding:

    “Warping the debate in this way allows delusional and contradictory thinking to go unchallenged. Thus, we get the argument that Putin is a madman who will kill indiscriminately to achieve his aims—but he is also somehow definitely bluffing about using nuclear weapons. And he’s only using that bluff because he’s losing the war—but if he’s not stopped in Ukraine, he will go on to conquer the rest of Europe. Putin’s regime must fall because he has killed or jailed all the liberal reformers and yoked himself to a hardline Far Right, but somehow he will be replaced by a liberal reformer when his regime collapses.
    It’s nonsensical, and a real debate would expose some of the delusions in this thinking. But we aren’t allowed to have one.”

    What he doesn’t mention is that we well know and have check stubs for, the all of Twitter, FB, and Social Media is PAID, fabricated, bots, from the same Derp State, Direct Bat-phone to Congress, FBI, CIA and other known liars, to erase people and run the woke mob to and fro. Let’s not even go that far: this is what NEWSPAPERS do to DEMOCRACIES. What Mark Antony did speaking at Caesar’s funeral (in Shakespeare). It’s an old, old story, which is why we are NOT a democracy, and democracies collapse into ruin and mob violence almost immediately. We are a Republic, with a Constitution that limits government and protects human rights. Some directly by name which they also ignore, but some others presumed but also inalienable.

    Read a lot of comments on Covid this week, only most of what you would expect. Even among those caught on to it, no solidarity, no reason to believe the Narrative™ won’t be able to fabricate anything it feels like, regardless of how stupid, illogical, or counterproductive. One said a person thought they were vax-injured but fretted it would delay them getting their new booster. …Darwin? I’m lost.

    Noting that Austin Fitts had a chilling perspective on it. The method and color of the Covid+ project is exactly like having an overseer, a bank or investment firm, call for a corporate restructuring by cutting head count. Except in this case with literal heads. They’re saying “Cut 10% (let’s say) of your population to avoid bankruptcy.” Do it fairly, equally, in every department.” But there’s something more here. It’s as if they said “Or else.” Russia seems to have done it, kinda-sorta, hard to tell. China seems to have, even though it’s a common, previous tech Sinovac. So WHO is the “Or else”, and WHAT is the “Or else”?

    Not jumping the shark here: is it not a person? Is it just “physics”? Of oil and food limits? How can that be when we don’t ship the oil we already have and waste half the food? Decide for yourself, but this is an accurate read on the process CV – and other causes of death, mind you! – have gone through.

    Yesterday: “If the leaders of NATO and the collective West, above all representatives of the USA, do not sit down at the negotiating table with Russia and accept the right of the Russian people in the former parts of Ukraine to self-determination, renounce the Nazi regime in Kiev and give up from the further expansion of NATO, we can expect the imminent start of a total nuclear war…”

    I disagree that far would happen. Not that it couldn’t, but prophesy and other non-logics preclude it. However, NATO CANNOT renounce the Nazis they are, nor stop expansion. They — Davos — would collapse and cease to exist. Yet they won’t get to “total” nuclear war. Pick somewhere in between, but that’s a line of history 10 miles wide where “mostly anything” can happen.

    “Arthur Burns said it wasn’t his job to stop the war or the Great Society programs. These were political choices”

    That is correct and what Armstrong says. As presently constituted, the Fed controls the monetary/market side. How can they possibly do that if they have no control over the budget side? That is: Congress prints Infinity Dollars, then tells the Fed not to have it cause inflation. The Fed does their best, as you see, and are pretty successful. Until now. Not that they’re not successful, but there are limits to all systems. To “do their best”, Powell is now raising rates – which compounds Federal debt interest payments – and destroys the domestic economy. He does save NY commercial banks and the currency, though. For now.

    Costs? And again note this comes from CONGRESS, as they print money, budgets originate in the House: Destruction of the poor. Destruction of Europe. Collapse of banking worldwide. Collapse of the economy worldwide. Destruction of emerging markets. Vilification and blame of the U.S. Collapse of unprotected domestic banks. Collapse of all regional and state budgets. Crime. Violence. War. Breakaway of the Global South and (slower) rejection of the US$ reserve status. Boomerang collapse of US$ and NY Commercial Banks due to interconnection with collapsed, war-torn Europe, but a few months slower.

    “Biden has forced all Americans working in China to pick between quitting their jobs and losing American citizenship,”

    This has never happened before and probably can’t happen now. Practically there’s no legal mechanism for it, if that matters in today’s “make up the law” environment. But yes, this is quite similar to the U.S. oil embargo on Japan that required Japan to start WWII. …Or would you say WE started WWII? ‘Cause I would. Anglos at work. Never a moment to honor a treaty, always creating another war.

    So when they lament “Oh however did we get into a two-front world war??? Woe is me! Those evil Asians!” Eating two bugs and one potato between you, you can point to this and everyone’s blind ignorance and open support of it.

    “Russians will settle for nothing less than the ouster of the Zelenskyy regime.”

    I disagree. If they wanted him, he’d be gone. NATO would just hire a replacement actor, since Ze doesn’t exist and doesn’t run or decide anything anyway. C’mon people, this has been going on since Nixon. Leaders are figureheads and some half the time are probably their body doubles photo-op in the car while the real guy sleeps.

    Anyway, what would be gained for any bother? Or even for Kiev itself? Nada. Take all the “Russian” parts, hand near-Odessa to the Romanians, Leave Lviv and the Nazi West to Poland, and Kiev can be a city-state like Montenegro With Ze firmly in charge of all 10 square miles. You’d trade that for International Condemnation for assassination and regime change? Wha?

    But later in the article, the full war means that NATO’s opportunity to back off has essentially expired. While they have no hardware to fight the continuing war with. It’s been well-established now, to the world but primarily the Ukrainians, what their goals were: to minimize civilian suffering and prevent hardship and death for Slavs in the crossfire of NATO’s war. Not sure Ukraine will care, but the point is now made and they can compare an ACTUAL attack by Russia to the careful police actions up til now.

    “Borrell Tells EU Members ‘Don’t Worry About Money’ for Ukraine (RT)”

    As the Fed above, they can print “money”. However, they cannot print, have no tanks, shells, or men. Those aren’t keyboard-warrior moves. It will also collapse the currency, AND the nations + Economies of EU member states. But as I said, they will collapse and be removed anyway if they can’t sack and plunder Russia, so they have nothing to lose. Only the people do, and they never consider them for an instant. So Bob’s yer uncle – nothing could be easier. Operators standing by, Nuke your City today!

    Examples? “though voiced hopes the [European] continent will “get through the winter fine” barring any “catastrophes”

    That is, if we only destroy every small business in Europe, and cripple the people, killing grandmas by the ten-thousands, it’s a win! Because we #Care, so, so much. Just like Covid. We will shut down the whole continent to save one grandma even if if kills every small business in Europe. Now we’ll KILL every grandma if it kills every small business in Europe. …I see a trend here…

    Whole article is bizzaro world though. “Don’t worry about money” he says. And then because money’s not an object, he will only pay under half. What? Then he is slow to cut the check and needs arm-twisting. Then somehow Yellen pops up like a gopher, and says “Go ahead and you better give: it ain’t my money you’re spending.” Then it’s a straight gift, not a loan, unlike what is always recommended to all American people and businesses, ever, even for PPP, Covid, school. Even compared to lend-lease of WWII. Like Kiev is the Capital, the King and Ruler of the planet, as I keep saying and it’s not a joke. Zero quid pro quo: just present tribute to Caesar. It’s almost as if the Kahzars run things, you know, as if they’re a mafia. Kahzars being the people originating from Ukraine.

    Then US wants to see – EUROPE – pay money. Not us. Hey we have a press too, so if you care so much, why does Europe have to be so quick? And again, that money buys you nothing, as we’re not even delivering HIMARs for like 3 more years. So Europe…money…to pay U.S. Weapons profiteers? Who then won’t deliver product? Won’t mine the ore until long after Kiev falls? I’m getting lost here.

    “A top US general, now retired, has said he believes that Ukrainian forces can retake the Crimean Peninsula by next summer.”

    I’m baffled as to why he would say such a thing, and not because it’s a lie – they tell nothing but those. If they made any attempt take Crimea, Moscow would nuke London and NY. The End. They always would have, even in 1999, So now that it’s officially and long-term a Russian Oblast tell me again how that’s going to happen. Just like Jens and Biden everyone says we’ll nuke the entire Russian Army but nothing bad will happen after.

    I’d say he just sounds like an idiot, and makes the whole military sound like an idiot, but I’m sure the people nod their knowing heads and love it. “Land War in Asia” size idiot.

    “Musk Compares Crimea to Pearl Harbor”

    Sure, except Russia has a better claim to Crimea than we have to the Kingdom of Hawaii. Or did we forget again? Ask the Indians how those treaties with the Anglos go. Oh, and the East Ukraine too, which was never part of independent “Ukraine” ever. It was put under the administrative command under the USSR, which Biden and NATO will die defending the will of Stalin. And against any “Self-determination” as legally enshrined by the UN.

    “European Commission reportedly planning to create a mechanism allowing it to intervene to force down prices when they surpass a “dynamic” maximum level.”

    We must end Capitalism to save it. No free markets! Anywhere. In any thing. …Except the bankruptcies of bakeries and pubs and the death of grandma, then free markets everywhere. Let me know how this “Means of production controlled by the state” works out for you. I know it’s never been tried before.

    Maxwell: HuhWhat? I can’t even follow this. Logic brain…Melting. Reality…Dissolving.

    Like the PCR test. Yeah, we know it didn’t work. From month THREE, almost 3 years ago. It gave false positives on PAPAYA. Creating a fake test is how they got the fake pandemic kicked off. That and moving all Flu numbers into Covid. Other than that they had H1N1 numbers like Obama, and no case for a deadly, murdering, population-culling vaccine to avoid certain bankruptcy and shed load before a war.

    Cancer: So speaking of, ever heard the rabbit hole that when they created polio vaccine, they used monkeys? And those monkeys (accidentally) cross-contaminated to species a cancer-causing factor? Such that at exactly that time, 1950-60 cancer exploded? No wonder they love vaccines so much. Stochastic Population control. It’s both technical and far in the past though, but I think it opened their eyes to new horizons of both “Limits to Growth” and infinite profit.

    “The [Jan 6] committee could have been so much more.”

    No it couldn’t. Or it would have had to ask – as EVEN AOC ASKED – who opened the 2,000lb Columbus Blast doors from the inside? Why did capitol police abandon their posts to Ray Epps? Why did they wave everyone through with selfies? Why did an Antifa member – paid thousands by CNN – say “I can’t believe we got them to do this” on camera? Why were there zero weapons and zero people killed, but OathKeepers on record and video as helping the police? Why are the only deaths and injuries outward, on the people and protesters, not the Police or Congress?

    Hey: Doesn’t NANCY PELOSI run all that at the top? Did she know anything? Like enough to have an IMAX camera crew on site and say something like “The moment I’ve been waiting for”?

    Uh, no. You cannot have ANY real investigation, because in courts of evidence, all the camera footage would be run. We’d find the capital bomber in no time and walk him back to the front door of the FBI building.

    How many AR-15s did Jesus own?

    “Then Jesus said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.” Luke 22:36

    Translation: “Each of you — pawn your last jacket and buy a modern assault weapon.” Any questions?

    Redneck: “the U.S. is running low on equipment that it can hand over to Ukraine.” Is Austin lying? Not a trick question: “Appear weak when you are strong” –Lao Tzu. Bottom of the barrel? But you’re not back-filling our OWN army? You’re fired. And court-martialed for treason.

    Redneck. Yes, you’ve got my vote. Your Honor.

    “So I sent him the video “Safe and Effective”

    Don’t worry, he will never, ever watch it. He will know it is wrong before looking at the evidence. That’s Science! And actually, his response is even worse than that. “I’ll kill anyone they ask me to. And I’ll even kill them for free!”

    Clubbed to Death:

    New problems: if firewood is worth €700 then you’ve got a theft problem. This is the problem with making your neighbors poor, and how you cannot BE rich if your neighbors are hungry. You can see a lot of this in “Dying of Money” by Jens O. Parsson. If people get that desperate, you have theft problem with your DOORKNOBS. No, really. Every object, every thing, useless or useful will be stolen. That is, when you come out in the morning to scratch a little work, using pliers now since they stole your doorknob, you’ll find your shovel is stolen and now you can’t garden potatoes to save their life, much less your own.

    Redneck: is that anything like when the U.S. held bake sales to buy body armor for Iraq (no, really), and then when it arrived, it was confiscated (stolen) by higher up for their use (Dragonscale) and they were disciplined for wearing it? Point? All armies have troubles and all nations are incompetent f-ups. Is NATO really less of an incompetent f-up when they have no BULLETS to shoot? Is lacking both guns and shells really less incompetent and more winning than that?

    And this is why Barry, like Bill, is a good politician. Bad men, mind you, but good politicians. Can’t help it though. It’s the party of rich warmongers and bullies. It’s an external expression of their internal state. State of glee by inflicting pain, power, and terror. They probably know they should help it but can’t. Anything else?

    Democrats need to stop with the character assassination. “We spend enormous amounts of time and energy and resources pointing out the latest crazy thing he said, or how rude or mean ….”That’s probably not something that in the minds of most voters…” –Obama

    That would work quite well. Don’t worry though: they are incapable of it. If only this ONE thing changed, they would become an entirely different party and entirely different people. Look at the platform: having sold out on health care, student loans, minimum wage, the environment, and abortion, the is now only one plank is “GOP Bad.”

    Well there’s your problem. Have you thought about not being afraid of everything in life? “Call your doctor now to see if ‘mental illness’ is right for you.” This is an article on “Medium Covid”, a disease I just made up just now, about a minute before the article’s deadline.

    Just how much of a threat is medium COVID? The answer has been obscured, to some extent, by sloppy definitions.” …Such as mine, just now, making up a new definition no one agrees on or adheres to. That is wonderful because therefore it is all their fault: the very reason for using words altogether: POWER. Which is to be Master (and which is Slave), that is all.

    $6B to Credit Suisse, from the Fed (us) for nothing. “A Wooster always helps a Pal.” A Pal with the secret handshake and the old school tie. So…we know the Fed is going to destroy Europe, and can. The UN, a vassal of Europe/Davos, has begged them not to. Now that’s desperate. So Credit Suisse asks first to get best terms? Capitulates, goes to see Don Corleone before there’s a mad rush and panic when the system cracks? So what did Credit Suisse do as a favor to pay ball and homage to Powell and get the dough? Or is Swiss not “Europe”, not Davos, although they seem so?

    Austin Fitts agrees with Luongo: Start with this headline: ““We Have Entered The Stage Where Policy Makers May Feel They Have Control, But Are Nevertheless No Longer In Control”. No. The Fed IS in control at least on this point. What they are doing is burning down the outer ring of cities to protect the Core. That’s a strategic trade, not losing control at all. And stock headlines show it’s working, as well it should. “With allies like this…”

    Anyway, the rate rise has nothing to do with inflation, clearly for 40 years they could care less. And they clearly could care less who gets killed, American workers or even companies. But they do care that the U.S. would melt down and lose reserve currency power, and is therefore a no-brainer decision to sacrifice all Europe to retain it. Because there won’t BE a Fed if it falls. Europe MUST continue control and the colonization of America or die. That’s the fight and clearly Europe is losing.

    who said last month that Moscow would cut off energy supplies if price caps are imposed.”

    What is it with these guys and constant, universal, mental illness? How about this: “If Europe refused to pay for energy, Russia wouldn’t deliver it.” Is that so hard? Here: I have a “price cap” I just made up on Mercedes: All Mercedes are now price capped at $10. What? You won’t deliver me a new Mercedes for $10??? How Dare You!!! That is clearly unreasonable. Why do you hate and attack me so? Help, help, I’m being oppressed! See the violence inherent in the system!

    No, literally, read the article, the presentation that is universal, the chronic, diabolical narcissism. YOU, your task in life, is to give to ME. That is your only purpose and value.

    Ukraine Finance Minister To Chair IMF, World Bank Governing Boards In 2023 (R.)”

    “most of Denisova’s allegations regarding “sexual atrocities”committed by Russian soldiers in the country had not been confirmed” …even by the enemy. That’s a new low in this. You’d think at least the sworn enemy and VICTIM would have to allege something, but nope. I guess they’re like the U.S. now in that their job is to take offense on behalf of other people and races that they don’t take themselves. The Dolores Umbrage of Law. Now how can I create terror? as Barry says. I know: I’ll allege false crimes all day! That even the victims say never happened!

    “NATO has “de-facto become involved in the Ukraine conflict,”

    He’s being incredibly generous for Overton. NATO fabricated and engineered this war, wholesale for decades against the express advice of nearly everyone. Meershimer comes to mind. They expressly PAID, BILLIONS to force a completely open and illegal coup, a international UN crime, then proceeded to double-cross a signed treaty, paid billions AGAIN to arm and train Europe’s 2nd largest army, then amassed that army to invade and finish the genocide against ethnic Russians in Donbass. They didn’t suddenly become involved, kicking and screaming down a slippery slope.

    “Jimmy Dore” …says the completely and blindingly obvious. That no one will say. –That’s what comedians do–. The logical conclusion, if you agree that NATO is using Ukraine as a sacrifice people and sacrifice country, is that NATO/US and Biden are committing genocide. And they not only approve, they pay $50B of my tax dollars to insure that overwhelming mass-death happens and Ukraine can never function as a people for generations. …Because that too is blindingly obvious. The people of the US and Canada overwhelming approve of this Slavic genocide, and voluntarily hang flags supporting the mass murder on their houses so we will know who they are. Kind of like hanging up your KKK hood on the mailbox.

Now don’t you want to become like me? Practically perfect in every way?

    How is polluting somewhere else and waging wars for Lithium any different than for heavy oil sands?

    How? “Because I said so!” Because “It’s not xxxxx when we do it!” Fill in xxxx for “Murder”, “theft”, “war”, “colonization”, “oppression”, “racism”… When I level a mountain it’s green! …Not like when Peabody Coal does it.

    “ From Decolonisation to Desperation to Hopelessness to Farce (Batiushka)”

    They’ve got to get their brains back. The “American Empire” isn’t run by America. …Orrrrr maybe it might have the support of its own people? Ever? It’s run by a transnational subset that includes corporations, UK, and probably Europe/Davos for its own reasons. Thinking in terms of “nations” makes for constant mis-predictions. Corporations are larger and more influential than most nations, and “club” subsets, like “Progressives” or “Atlanticists”.

    OPEC–Plus decided to reduce the oil production of member nations by two million barrels per day”

    There are a number of details here. First, this is a big F.U. to Biden, whose attempt to buy the election was for burning 1.5M bbl out of the SPR. The 2M cut is to make sure he can’t. But OPEC already couldn’t meet quota, or didn’t, so the “Official” decision is just reflecting the already-existing reality.

    Rumor had Biden saying if Saudi would pump to lower gas prices for the election, he would refill the SPR at $85/bbl that Trump had filled at $25/bbl. MBS told him to commit an anatomical act, as there were at least 2 go-rounds with the Biden-side CIA club trying to kill him, and install his half-brother that he then invited for an extended stay at the Ritz-Carlton…upside down, over water. The CIA was super-pissed they couldn’t get in their man Al Waleed, long-ordained by the Bushes. So he might be a wee bit salty about it? I’m sure that extends to Kashoggi, CIA liaison to the Muslim Brotherhood. Also a little salty, and the paid press coverage of it.

    Sounds like Saudi Arabia needs them some FREEDOM! They are now highest on the betting pool for color revolution and regime change. Reasons? 1) they have oil. 2) You needed another reason?

    Okay, chessboard: Saudi goes SCO, China-Russia. …And therefore as a practical matter creates a regional alliance also with Iran? Yeah, if so: dodge this.

    EU to Demand Holidaymakers’ Fingerprints and Facial Images at Borders (DS)”

    That’s funny: when they started this in 2001, they said it was only for criminals and terrorists. …Both defined as “Independent Journalists.” Meanwhile, Amsterdam, world’s largest drug cartel, and Stockholm the hand grenade capitol of the world. All those drugs, guns, bombs, people…coming right through the border, every day, faster and cleaner than even the felon-run TSA here in the ‘States. Nope! Don’t see nothin’! But strip searching Grandma Walton sure will do the trick this time!

    13 Moons. Huh, funny how all the Black and Asian men use a different calendar and clock. Must be that White Supremacy under every bed and around every corner. Let’s pretend there is math and objective reality: A solar year is? 365 ¼ days. That’s why we have leap year. A lunar month is? 29.5 days. 12 x 29 = 354 ; 13 x 29 = 383. So we have the inconvenient match up that a solar year = 12 ½ months or so.

    Now you can use one calendar like the Jewish do, or the other calendar like the Romans do and get to your appointments on time, but it doesn’t matter which, they still won’t match up. Neither calendar plants trees or saves the earth. So this is why we have 4 weeks per month (moon phases) which are each seven days, but when they went solar calendar, that no longer matches up, in addition, the Roman calendar was so abused with adding days and weeks to add time to tamper with elections (no, really, Hereletmegooglethatforyou.com) that “Dece-mber” is now the 12th month, and not Deca, the 10th month. “Oct-ober” is now the 10th month and not the 8th. Julius Caesar put his foot down to an end of the election shenanigans and Senatorial fraud, which is why it is the “Julian” calendar we use today, and look what it got him. But it was a political compromise for Roman politics 2,000 years ago NOT a science experiment, and is not reflecting astronomy nor meant to be. It works, and as badly as Ethernet protocols or English spelling standards or 440hz tuning.

    P.S. even that failed so that by 1582 Pope Gregory had to add 10 days. The Orthodox Pope did not follow, such that Russia had this radically different dating for centuries. And Scotland.

    Anyway, Calendars: so which way would you like to be wrong? I prefer the moon calendar as more tangible, but does it really matter? It still wouldn’t make 13 months to a year. Love your own culture. By asking questions. Don’t be proud and hate it from pure bone-headed ignorance.

    Rembrandt’s an NPC!

    Another day nothing’s happened. That’s why I felt it was near 9-28, the timing was right. Yes I know rates, fastest Fed rise ever, NS2, Tesla and FANGs cut in half, nuclear exchange of words back and forth, all that. But to me, to us, on the ground, no change. No change in Europe. No change here. Same as it ever was.

    “There’s a baby in that room as well.”

    In the U.S., you have citizenship when you have enough money to hire a lawyer. …That can go to the Supreme Court. No rights, all rights are mere privileges, til then.

    “Sweden allegedly argued that its own findings are too sensitive to share even with other EU nations. All three nations also refused to grant Russia access”

    They must be Scientists. No access to the data. No engagement with the material. No second-checks by objective outsiders. This is what we always do when we’re totally innocent and have nothing to hide, when there’s no third agenda.

    Hey didn’t they say they wanted universal open search warrants and limitless wiretaps, because why would I protest unless I had something to hide? So I get the same when I request government and medical, right?

    after tycoon Elon Musk said he’s no longer willing to provide the communications for free,”

    Heebus, I would think not! But this is the new NON-Capitalist United States, where we do everything for free! He provides work on behalf of the State, the state provides zip in return.

    …Okay, so when the Pentagon foots the bill, we’re in the war, right? And above, Musk does this because his fortune was cut in half in 10 months.

    (He was getting paid. Same as WaPo gets paid by the CIA via Amazon.)

    “Elon Musk has made an abrupt U-turn”

    He U-turned the U-turn? No. He never “decided” in the first place: no ACTION was taken. That is, reporters never reported REALITY, only loose fantasy words bandied around. How about “He floated” the idea in order to get some attention from the Pentagon to pick up the bill they’ve been dragging out and milking him for because they’re broke. Once they made noises they’d stop dicking with him, he made noises he’d keep the lights on.

    …So why the reporting on Elon so different than for other people/cases? Why the “Framing”? They’ve baffled themselves, if they’d only written “he said” the way that real journalists do, THEY wouldn’t have gotten sucked in by THEIR OWN pejorative framing that Elon is mercurial. Which is fun but dead wrong. So they’re constantly reporting dead-wrong because of it. Well, what can you expect from Columbia J?

    Reminds me of this week’s Gonzalo Lira where they had on a pin-headed reporter who was determined to take the #Opposite of anything that was said. They went on it a long time, far too long, too bitterly, and astonishingly unproductive, with less information, more confusion, and more bad spirits being generated with each passing minute. But boiled down, his protestations were the mirror of the “Smart Set”, the Left, the Journalists (but I repeat myself). That is, he protested with new writhing intellectual contortions against ANY proposition of ANY objective reality. And ANY objective morality. No words had any solid meaning whatsoever, as they attempted to tamp down discussion by reaching a consensus on definition: “What is a “referendum”? What is a “Democracy”? Nope, he backed up into shrill panic, shouting over any and everyone when approached on the concept of “Reality” itself. Reason itself.

    #AntiLogos as I said, and it took quite a few hours of thinking to decipher what all his parrying and avoidance all had in common: it’s all RELIGION. The religion is nihlism, the objection to #reaility itself. And why should he learn as a journalist that 1 + 1 doesn’t always equal 2? Because that’s the wash of the whole Left. Like him, should any person take a solid stand, they will be ruthlessly attacked, cornered, de-personed, and de-jobbed. So his doing this is only the normal, average requirement of mind for average, or sub-average journalists.

    Tim Pool laments on this regularly. People say, “why do you only have MTG and Bannon as guests?” Um, because he’s asked every Leftist in creation and they all refuse? Because they would be asked direct questions in public and have no potential to weasel out of them with double-speak? Other Leftists would find fault with their response and cut them, their own allies, to pieces. Well-known because we see a new one every day coughElonMuskUkrainecough. So they know this and cannot be asked actual questions they would have to clearly answer. …A few have tried to hold Zooms so they can pretend technical difficulties and cut off their end, and I believe one actually did.

    This is what you always do when your argument is sound and you have nothing to hide: you provide no evidence, discuss with no one, never engage debate, and cut the plug whenever it’s uncomfortable. Meanwhile, the Right get interviewed as “The Token”, gets edited into dumb sound bites, yelled at, insulted, called Racist, gay hating slave-making white supremacist Nazis, is mike cut off, or interview cut off (like the Ukie thing last week) and goes “Meh.” I don’t know if that wins, but it’s constant, polite engagement with reason. It’s up to you which you prefer, which is the opposite of violence.

    “ Elon Musk Discovers Ukrainian ‘Kill List’ (RT)”

    He knows darn well, he’s just narrating to bring it to his 5 million followers.

    “groups condemned Mirotvorets for leaking data on more than 4,000 members of the media.”

    So they list people like they do for “Libs of TikTok” they suggest violence against these listed people like the Left does for “Libs of TikTok”, they then dox the home addresses of “Libs of Tiktok”, then write happy smiley faces when violence and murder succeeds against them…but they’re not promoting violence and directing a felony. DO I have that right? Now replace “Libs of TikTok” with “Supreme Court Justice” and “Sitting President” and note the DoJ and FBI haven’t the slightest interest in either the promotion, nor the crime.

    “Why is it that one tweet with a peace proposal has become a more powerful expression of Musk’s position than $80 million worth of material aid to Ukraine and numerous declarations of support?”

    Be more clear: the reason is that they are #AntiPeace. Every where, for any reason. Or were the “Wars” on poverty (the poor) drugs (the poor AND addicted) not enough of an example? The real war is on The Truth. The Truth is their only enemy.

    “How 4,000 People from Groningen Managed to Turn off the Gas Tap (NOS)”

    You’re free not to be poisoned if you can win against Exxon in a world court. …You’ll never get your real legal fees though.

    “Fiscal policy should be used to support the most vulnerable without jeopardizing inflation goals,”

    Hahahahaha. I needed a good laugh this morning. Because that $2k Covid check, replacing $40k in income, as worked out so well and didn’t cause inflation at all. #Helping!

    “[Indonesia] called for a switch to local currencies in international payments to reduce dependence on the greenback,”

    “ Will Beijing Join with Russia vs the West or Keep Its Powder Dry? (Hvatkov)”

    Beijing will never do anything public or solid until long, long after it’s obvious. That’s the Eastern way.

    “referring to blocs like NATO and AUKUS, exclusive alliances designed to unite Western countries and those loyal to them, effectively cutting off everyone else.”

    Yes, WE are the Soviets. WE are building the new Iron Curtain. And as all Soviets, to keep the people IN, not the others out. Obviously we do this because we’re great and awesome, and obviously we also kill 30 million of our own citizens after, the minute we disarm them.

    “the continent will collapse, people will be in danger, and it seems that we must prepare for a protracted war,”

    If Europe collapses, which seems very likely, I wonder what he means by “war”. It’s an unrest of all against all, crime and vandalism, not field armies in formation. Or more a national guard disaster response than a tanks and Special Forces thing.

    “disinformation is defined as “false, incomplete, or misleading information that is passed, fed, or confirmed to a targeted individual, group, or country.”

    That is, the entire Western Media. And Colleges too.

    “would lead any reasonable person to understand the laptop most likely belonged to Hunter Biden.”

    Yes, but logic and reason: we don’t use those. They are the express enemy of all that is holy. The only thing that matters is ME. My side, right, or most hopefully wrong. The win is so much more delicious when it’s also wrong.

    Besides, the story is total bunk. 1) ask any computer expert. 2) he says to correlate the email encryption to the public key 3) they match 4) it’s verified. Duh. But somehow they KNOW they don’t WANT to ask, and they know already BEFORE asking. Like Covid. We know it’s false because 1) we never looked, and 2) we never will. That’s the Speed of Science!™ That’s Truthiness!™

    “Yes, They Claimed The Vaccines Would Prevent Transmission (Chung)”

    Yes, but it’s so much sweeter when we can make you do what’s wrong, and win. Win with firm proof by you hurting yourself for us, our lies, our words, our #Power, the Appeal to Authority. I OWN you. That’s textbook #Narcissism. You, now = us. I = You. I have your power, your soul, your complete control and therefore I expand from my deadly smallness.

    Better, now that they are proven all, 100%, completely wrong, neither Speed of Science™, Doctors, Journalists, Governments, Media, nor Fact Checkers will be in the slightest discredited. They will still demand “Fact Checkers” as the pillar of anti-hate social media, and the people will cheer and demand it! Yay! How Dare You?™

    So again: why bother? You can discredit deadly, murdering narcissists ten-thousand times and nothing happens. No one is saved by the exposure. No one is removed and goes to jail.

    Yes. We knew. It was O B V I O U S to anyone – using their data – within the first 3 months. Pfizer admits it on TV, in front of the EU commission and the planet. Nothing happens. I guess we know who runs things around here.

    Twitter is a Weapon, not a Business (Robert Malone)”

    Remember the Skripals and the universal media gag order on all Britain? Yes, well imagine Twitter has about 1,000 of these from every agency in every country on the planet. So THEY may not be deadly speech-denying liars (although they are), but so long as they cooperate with the fascism and anti-human-rights demands of others – anyone – then they are effectively exactly the same as Ministry of Truth, 1984, mercenary on-demand for any person at any time. The 3rd intern PR Minister from Seychelles asks Twitter to ban – outrageous example – the President of the United States – and Boom! It’s done.

    How could Twitter NOT be a weapon under these well-known conditions?

    Kanye West de-personed, de-banked. I’ve never been happier. At least attacking him they reveal their essential racism, adherence to the glorious revolution, and will alert black and minority peoples to take cover and prepare. (for the attack by Communists and “garden people”) Leaving Chase to have an open field on shooting White Karens, I guess. I mean, not like they didn’t know too, but they were in FAVOR of harassing and erasing prominent black men.

    “Epstein was permitted to hold funds at JPMorgan Chase despite an ongoing pedophile ring trial. Bernie Madoff banked with JPMorgan Chase. The same bank took direct action in World War II to aid the Nazis. Chase bank issued Rückwanderer marks so that American Nazi sympathizers could buy German marks for a discount. Those funds were mainly stolen from Jews who fled Germany as antisemitism was on the rise. Let’s not forget former President Franklin D. Roosevelt placed a freeze on German assets in the US at that time, which is another topic. Chase bank funneled Third Reich assets through South America to avoid FDR’s ruling.

    PayPal released an internal memo earlier in the week stating that they were considering fining users $2,500 for “misinformation””

    “The same banks that fund pedophiles and actual Nazis can discard your funds if they personally disagree with you.” –Armstrong

    Conclusion: Nazi = Good. Free speech = Bad.

    “China Conducting ‘Race-Baiting’ Social Media Campaigns To Polarize Americans: Former CIA Officer”

    No—what??? So. Surprised. Is that like their mass importing of Fentanyl in the new Opium Wars?

    Well, yesterday’s skinny was Nancy Pelosi wrapping up the Jan 6 hearings with a smile and a bow. Gifting the election, after holding citizens in cages without charges for 2 years. What’s up, pussycat? Well, a home video, by her daughter, where Jan 6 is rollin’ and she says “Trespassing is just what I’ve been waiting for.”

    Huh. Interesting reaction. Not “I Drank Wut?” Not “Where’s my security detail?” Not “Gosh what a coincidence I demanded my daughter be filming all day today.” Nope. Just, “Finally!!!” Finally what? Not protesting, not stabbing, not shooting, not rioting, not invading, not coup-ing. Doesn’t “Trespassing” seem awfully specific? So she specifically expected trespassing and specifically had a camera crew and specifically NOT her security detail?

    …And then didn’t leave? Wait, wait: Pelosi as Speaker is EXPRESSLY IN CHARGE OF ALL D.C. AND CAPITAL SECURITY. So…she expected trespassers and did…nothing? Against the specific written advice of the President?

    Meanwhile, back in the AOC Batcave… A man storms in, breathless. AOC hiding feverishly under her desk. “Where is She??? Where is that Congresswoman?!?!?!” Oh wait: it was only the Capitol Police. “…And she DID die” as Shel Silverstein would say. But no, she was evacuated although the Jan 6 rioters killed her.

    One thing: She cowered in fear of her life HOURS before there was any riot…anywhere. Almost before Trump started speaking, miles away. Funny she seems to have had the same amazing prescience and premonition as Mrs. Pelosi: that there would be a Capital trespass, a riot even, at this exact time and location. According to her. Huh.

    But I am a coincidence theorist and neither times nor facts nor statements whether spoken or written can convince me anything is wrong.

    Another amazing misunderstanding. I’m sure if there were anything to it, NPR and HuffPo would report.

    Nancy Pelosi. “I’ve been waiting for this.”

    Yes, we bet you have. And next sentence is you were going to use it to attack a sitting president. …Go on. Don’t let me stop you.

    “Borrell: The EU Is a Garden, The Rest of the World Is a Jungle (RT) “

    “Borrell: West Will ‘Annihilate’ Russian Army If Moscow Uses Nukes (Antiwar)”

    Proving he’s both dumb AND racist (but I repeat myself), and Borrell thinks Russia will just sit around and say “Thank you sir” if the EU (actually their paid bully, the U.S. –they don’t have an army) nuke the entire Russian army. They’ll just sit around, borders open? I’d say these guys are dangerous, but the broadest mass of people follow along, nod their heads, and believe it to. Push that button! Light ‘em up!

    I exaggerate?

    “we delegated our security to the United States. While the cooperation with the Biden Administration is excellent, and the transatlantic relationship has never been as good as it is today”

    That is, Europe will fight anyone, everyone, down to the last West Virginian, and Biden takes orders directly from Davos – I mean Europe. Borrell never crosses his mind anything about America’s people or benefit here, any costs we incur or bear, any people or opportunities we sacrifice. Why should they? America has all these jungle darkies amirite? They expressly said they can’t foregive student loans or the cannon fodder won’t flow out of the Philly ghettos. Oh yes, he makes me dizzy with hostility. How can people not see this widely? There’s barely two men shouting at AOC in Brooklyn for voting for full nuclear war.

    What would have happened with Orange Man? We were withdrawing our worldwide colonial army and making Europe fight their own stupid wars for once. So the war would have never happened because NATO wouldn’t be cocky, and wouldn’t be expanding. Or did his – what? – 5 peace deals not teach you that? Nope! Never happened. OMB.

    “EU Opens Probe into Vaccine Deals (RT) “

    Oh! A Probe! Into whether it was illegal to purchase 1B doses for a mere 300M customers. 3 per person when we already know they will and must be perfectly useless, as the substrain would absolutely change by then. So: Corporation says “Sack the people! Drain the Treasury! We’ve never put out a functional drug yet and are going under!” (Moderna). The government then says “Yes sir! How many, sir?” How did you do the sale? I just said so. No paperwork, no discussion, no records, no contracts.

    How can people not see this widely? …But this is not a jungle. This is the finest, cleanest, most orderly garden. Van der Lyden is but a delicate little flower.

    “Moscow claimed that [Bucha] was fabricated to justify breaking off the talks.”

    No wonder. It was the dumbest fabrication ever, but there was that Bellingcat, OPCW, sniff-the-backpack, garden hose incident in Syria. That one is hard to beat.

    “the end of a financial system that benefits the “Golden billion” – who “live at the expense of others”

    But these are the wee little hothouse flowers. The Garden. …And he’s quite right, MOST of Europe, like MOST of the U.S. are savaged in hardship and despair. It’s only just the 1% of the 1% of “The Garden” that are golden. Or are the Polish, the Basque, the rural Yellow Vests living it up in towns without hospitals? How’s Blackpool going? Still “white with hunger?”

    Merkel signing Russian pipelines is interesting. Who was she working for? But you have to understand of course they NEED the pipelines. That was never the point, they were always and only going to burn Russian gas. The point was that GERMANY — that is Davos — would have regime-changed and controlled Russia by then. With Navalny. Wow, does that say how low the bar for Random Guidos is now, and how retarded hothouse flowers get when never exposed to the weather?

    Even right now, they demand regime change. And if they got in, with no pipeline, how would they consume all Russia’s wealth like locusts? By having pre-built the pipeline to (Western) Europe. F’ the Eastern States.

    So careful what chess pieces we think were lined up under Merkel. They were planning the war then, with attempts to get off (Russian) carbon for a bit, then kill all their useless carbon-users the day before.

    “German Leaders Care More about NATO Than Their Own People – Putin (RT)”

    Not exactly. The German leaders – like all leaders, including Biden and Blinken – work for Davos. That means they don’t care about any of the people at all. They would like to kill them, and actively do so by the thousands each day. NATO is the standing army of Davos. But most of that is the United States, since Europe is broke and incompetent, and a U.S.-only army is a problem. The Pentagon won’t sign up and has left them twisting in the wind, without nukes and incapable of starting WWIII. The war therefore runs through the Congress/Private/CIA side, which also lacks a proper army. The provocations are a dumb attempt to draw the American PEOPLE into the war. …The war we die of on behalf of Europe, or more specifically, Davos, getting less than nothing for our pain.

    “Russia ‘To Repair Crimea Bridge Damage by July 2023’ (RT)”

    Did find out a fact about the Crimea Bridge. It is strategic, because Russia moves the military “exclusively” by rail. …Russian gauge rail. Meaning it’s nearly impossible to move beyond the Ukie border. But that rail means supporting Crimea via the bridge rail too, as rail lines are few and unable to hide.

    “Putin Reveals Threat to Istanbul Grain Deal (RT)”

    Meh. The bigger threat was, none of the grain went to poor countries or allies. It was all stolen by white Europe. Biggest set of racists on the planet.

    Hmm. Sounds like someone’s not on board.

    And somebody else.

    Speaking of headlines: “”This Is a Perfect Storm” – EU Leader Warns of “Black Swans” Everywhere, Says ‘Propaganda Is Our Battlefield’ — “Communication is our battlefield: we fight in communication… I need my delegates to be much more engaged in this battle of narratives…”

    If words don’t have meanings, you’re talking nonsense. “Black Swans” are something you can’t see or predict at all. Shutting off your own gas with a hammer then being dark and cold because of a war is the Whitest White Swan Was ever in the World. If communication is their battlefield, then they’re winning. Congratulations. On your dark and cold nights, telling yourself stories brilliant, magical, and untrue.

    You know who really wins a battle of narratives? The guy who gives me food and heat. We may find this in the midterms but there’s no chance the election will be decided.

    Newsweek: This is not the Onion? Geriatric Joe deigns, in his gracious majesty, to permit Russia’s duly elected leader to remain elected.

    This reminds me of something else, in Escobar. That Syria was full-attacked by NATO in pipelineistan. Russia only intervened – and barely – to prevent the complete overrun. ISIS and the NATO Pipeline Vandals are still there, sitting on the pipe route, shooting people and illegally stealing oil. But here’s the point: by barely getting involved, SYRIA fought the war, SYRIA “won” the war that is, not Russia. Therefore Syria can be assured they are a sovereign nation not a vassal. Their work = their win. If somebody else won for them, would it matter? The history of U.S. interventions for 100 years says no: one minute after leaving they collapse.

    Suppose Russia accepts this deal to keep their own elected leader: they would STILL be accepting the position of a vassal, while nothing else changed. For no reason. No win. And they can’t do that. Nor will Americans notice how bat-s–t this offer is. Nor how it is a recipe for nuclear exchange.

    And if we hadn’t run this down enough, let’s recap: No government has the full support of the people these days. Whether that makes them all illegitimate or not, you decide. But Russia, knowing this, held back completely in an excessively limited campaign, to protect only Crimea, the million Donbas and nothing else. KNOWING, knowing, that NATO and the West will reveal not only their burning, mass-murdering aggression, but more importantly their deep, wide, irrational, racist, round-up-in-camps, kill Tchaikovsky and ban Dostoevsky, shut off the banks of Russian violinists and sopranos, total intolerable hate, hate, hate. Russia likes the West, Europe, and the people would like to think this is a big misunderstanding and that there’s no need for war. Putin’s approach has revealed the limitless support for Nazis, full breadth and force of the pure race evil, and letting the West make the case for Russia’s existential war. Again, because words have no meaning, “Existential” as in “Russia and the Russian people will cease to exist”. Every single one will be cut up, killed, and reduced to the lowest, longest, most abject race-slavery ever seen. Continuing the attempt of the 90’s, and precisely as they publish, so this is no bluff.

    And so it has: Putin can now go to Parliament and make a case for actual war, got it, and can proceed again safely and methodically. Note, unlike the cartoon glue-sniffers at “Newsweek”, “Vladimir Putin” did not invade Ukraine: Russia did. If you remove “Vladimir Putin” you will get 20 far more hard line, more violent, more extreme people behind him. Putin is a Europhile and extreme moderate. “HE” did not invade. Removing him will not reverse the invasion. It will make it far, far stronger. As “THEY” want Putin removed, they know this and want a total war, a nuclear war, just as their papers say. Because then “THEY”, the cabal, can “Great Reset” and maintain power with the the CBDC “Mark” and “great tribulation(trial, aka hardship), such as hath not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever shall be.” Roll out their savior by stopping all the hardship they’ve been paying for and causing, get ‘em signed up, and Bob’s your Uncle. So they W A N T this nuclear, 6 Billion killing, nuclear, world-poisoning world war. Clearly. They are poisoning the world with lithium and erasing all the Cod even on a normal Friday. They are Death. Their god is the god of murder. OF COURSE they want a billion-killing, neofeudal-making world war.

    Biden and plagiarism and lies: everybody knows. They deny it and don’t care. Ask them if you don’t believe me. Lies = good. Truth = bad.

    “Blackhawk” helicopters. Yes, but they painted over the American flag on the side with the Rainbow flag, and are dropping hug bombs, so they’re not racist anymore. I mean, they’re not racist just because they want segregation again, right? All those whole cities of brown Muslims and Kanye West are the real White Supremacists, duh.

    To get real, they also have USS ships named after other peoples: “New Jersey” “Alabama”, and are in the “Virginia” class. …Unless people of a state aren’t real people with their own culture. And USS ships “Bob Hope” and “Ronald Reagan” for individuals such as “Geronimo.” …Unless some people, groups, governments, and cultures have different essential rules than others; a fundamental tenet of racism. So…should we remove “Kiowa” and “Geronimo”? Or “Bob Hope” and “New Jersey”. They are all “Americans”, all of them. We are all Americans. All of Us. WTF is dividing them? Who does that? (Trick question: Racists. Racists divide people. They are Racists. Hard-core, deep-religion, heart-felt, must-segregate, people-are-not-equal, racists.)

    But some Americans are more equal than others. Stop being racist, Karen. And you’re like the only one. Jimmy-Bob from Savannah has interracial grandkids, you clueless dummy. You latte-sippers from Smith College are the racists. Google: “Martha’s Vineyard.”

    “Ukraine Has De Facto Joined NATO – Defense Minister (RT) “

    They could have done this before the war, why didn’t they? They specifically SAID Ukraine would be NATO, and Nuclear. They could have just done it and shut up. Because as above THEY WANT A BILLION-KILLING WORLD WAR. And they have to take Russia or collapse of debt compounding.

    “In fact Kennedy defied all his advisors to tell Khrushchev that if he didn’t get his missiles (or “missiles”) out of Cuba, the US would launch a massive nuclear first strike against Soviet cities. …This made Khrushchev lose his nerve and he backed down.”

    W. T. F. ??? This is literally, provably, historically, dead-wrong. Like so-mainstream-it’s-wikipedia wrong. And Billion-killing deadly, wicked error to print right now. As this person has not the slightest hesitation in lying, he’s also lying about Putin’s side: Yes, Putin said if attacked, he would respond to the center of attack, not the periphery. But if the actual attack isn’t coming from London and D.C., they have nothing to worry about, right? If they’re innocent, why so nervous? AND, the only important factor, Russia has not altered, wavered, or made exceptions to their nuclear protocol that only permits defensive nuclear launch in the case of existential attack. …Unlike the U.S. which has loopholed a first-strike option as we used in Iraq. You know, like Ze said, “Using nukes there to convince them not to use nukes, so we don’t see mushroom clouds here.” Yummy First Strike 15m on Moscow, as written about for 50 years.

    “The diplomat pointed out at the same time that Moscow is not shunning dialogue with Washington. According to Lavrov, …“no one is putting forth sensible initiatives,”

    He’s not kidding. Just above, Newsweek reports Joe says “All you have to do is complete withdrawal and political surrender and get nothing for it, and THEN we’ll negotiate.” Uh-huh. You know, a NOT-earnest, NOT-sensible offer. And PS, on the eve of WWIII nuclear first-strike, Griner is the most important subject on earth. Well, she has melanin, and she has a vagina, so OBVIOUSLY. …To the mentally-ill toddlers running the West. Blinding, core racists from Yale and Smith College.

    “So losing both Kabul and Kiev”

    DID the lose them? They stole 100% of Ukraine’s gold in 2014. They’re broke and stole both Kabul’s and Russia’s money. And spent it on the Midterms and debt compounding. Not collapsed last year. How is that not a win? But yes: losing all wars they involve, on all fronts, collapses confidence. Financial confidence, the one army that still works for them.

    “ Lies, Lies, Lies (Batiushka)”

    Like I said, Saker has to back it up. They’re emotionally losing their minds. Perry and Nagasaki? Those are 100 years apart. There’s not a snowball’s chance they could have remained isolationist that long without being an African colony. And the U.S. isolationist? Not since the “Maine”, which was the problem, and us IN the Pacific War. So quite opposite, if we had, it would be good for Japan, not the reverse. The U.S. is the #Opposite of cultural isolation, as unlike reports, we have a culture, because everyone complains we export that culture widely, AND we are the culture of every immigrant who comes, which is all of them. We’re culturally isolated from ourselves? If we weren’t immigrants’ culture, then what were we initially? Native American? He’s like throwing jello-molds at the wall and making a random pattern from the splotches. Bc, wtf does it have to do with the world’s most obvious MI6 murder of the Skripals? (almost certainly over the Steele Dossier)

    “SpaceX Sends Ukraine Starlink Bill to Pentagon (RT)”

    And in the Special Ed world of Media and America, we’re not in the war. We’re not attacking Russia. Although Joe just said we ARE in the war, and that’s why we should love and support high gas prices. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doublethink
    “[1984] explicitly shows people learning doublethink and Newspeak due to peer pressure and a desire to “fit in,” or gain status”

    Status and “fitting in” which only the Left cares about. It’s the lingering weakness of the Right that they don’t fit in and can’t agree on anything.

    “Zelensky Shakedown: $62 Billion Before Next Year (Dowling) …The U.S. just approved another 13+ billion for Ukraine after they gave them $1.1 billion”

    …But we’re not in the war. Ukraine’s doctors and soldiers are paid, ours aren’t and are officially told to get food stamps. But we’re not in the war.

    Shakedown”? You wonder why? You ever wonder why a nation where Biden and Hunter had deep 6-figure and higher payoffs, corruption and deals of the highest order, going into an election, somehow “Ukraine” seems to have “Leverage” over the President and his son? Hmmm. Nope! Nothing suspicious here! Because I am a Coincidence Theorist, and this is all completely normal.

    …Orrrrrrrr… Maybe as we ALREADY KNOW, from the check stubs, Hunter was involved in the BioLabs…which were studying ‘gain of function’…on Covid…and testing on the Ukrainian population. Before it was released. Hmmm. So Hunter, with Fauci, then…logically…??? Nope! No bells ringing here! The $50B in other people’s money is just to help a pal while Detroit burns and Phoenix chokes.

    “we should all be able to agree that in a constitutional republic, lawmakers and presidents cannot just do whatever they want.”

    Well “There’s your Problem”: They do NOT agree they can’t do whatever they want. If it’s my side, they CAN do anything they want, however illegal, no matter who it hurts or why. It’s only YOUR side that can’t, even when they make Executive Orders of the same name from the same chair.

    “the prez only discussed Hunter’s admitted lies on a federal gun form,”

    That would put anyone in jail long-term. Or no charges at all, while withholding state’s evidence, if you do the gun crime on “Jan 6”. (Where there were no guns)

    And no one cares about Hunter’s drug charges. It’s him being the bag man for the President selling bribery and favors to foreign nationals we care about…the very definition of “Treason” and one of the very few crimes (bribery) outlined in the Constitution. No? Biden’s FBI offered $1M to a foreign national to screw the 2016 Presidential race. AND colluded with Russian Nationals to do so.

    ““Biden then threatened to withhold Congressionally authorized arms sales to Saudi Arabia..”

    …Aaaaaaaaand which was once again illegal. Just like his same illegal offer in Ukraine. And is impeachable since he is refusing direct orders placed upon him by Congress. The “Executive” “Executes” orders. The orders passed by the Legislature.

    Why? “There’s your Problem”: They do NOT agree they can’t do whatever they want. If it’s my side, they CAN do anything they want, however illegal, no matter who it hurts or why. In other words: a day ending in “Y”.

    “ John Durham Unmistakably Puts FBI on Trial (JTN)”

    Because, above, nobody cares. Did my side win? Me? I? My ego? Then it is a universal good. Lalalalala!!! …End of story, stop talking now.

    “Biden’s ‘Schizophrenic’ National Security Strategy (RSC)”

    Huh. Weird. This would make sense if there were a runaway cabal of zealots burrowed away inside the government and colluding-coordinating with foreign governments. Or a three-way, with Fed “Just Us”-promos, zealot-promos, and “the people”-promos. Otherwise, it kinda makes no sense. But I am a coincidence theorist, so clearly being schizophrenic but also constantly functional is the sensible option.

    “Be afraid, be actually afraid.”

    They sure like imaginary fears, in their child-like, infantile privilege. Always a new thing to fear, never a new job to work. Newsflash: “Fear” is an internal state, under your control. It’s your fee-fees, feelz. Therefore, I could care less about your fee-feez and your internal state. I am totally unrelated to your internal emotional states, which are yours alone. Man up, Buttercup.

    “Conspiracy Theorists keep getting things right”, unlike former Politco editors. Within hours now, in fact.

    Grounding: as far as I am aware, this is totally true. (but subtle) Try telling that to anyone though. They won’t even stop eating known-deadly chemicals and direct-injecting experimental pharmaceuticals. Heck, they won’t stop smoking meth and getting serial abortions. Grounding?

    Steve Ludlum https://www.economic-undertow.com/2022/09/01/z-marks-the-spot/ (don’t bother except to serve as a warning to others)

    Reading it, all I thought was he’s talking about the United States:
    The Big Lie is one the aggressor tells himself.
    …there is the easy war and nothing else.
    …they will ‘welcome us with flowers’, that the ‘boys will be home by Christmas’. That the war will not cost anything or that it will be profitable to our side. (Yes, literally, and attributes this all-American quote to Russia)
    …twenty-plus years of trying to undermine and absorb the Kyiv government by intrigue.
    Lies take root in the garden of disinterest.
    Little attention was made to Ukraine struggle from 2014 to the immediate run up to the invasion
    That the source of the cash was thieving oligarchs didn’t matter.
    …has a demographic imbalance skewed toward the elderly with its younger persons working for technology- and commercial firms or in the ‘loan shark’ economy
    Even among the poorly educated, Russians consider the military as employment of last resort, leaving Russia with legions of bribe-hungry functionaries, police and informants … and a military starved of capable soldiers.

    …Too many to continue. Just thoughtless, pejorative claptrap.

    For massive, thoughtless, provably idiotic lies, try this example:
    “Russians crossed the border in many places and Ukrainians immediately started shooting at them.”

    You mean like how majority Donbass begged Russia to defend and annex them? So…Donestsk was being really tricky-tricky? Shot them when they came in as asked to do what they were asked? No?

    “Unlike Syrian rebels, the Ukrainians were heavily armed, well led and enjoyed almost 100% popular support.”

    100% support in Donbass, who seceded and were shelled for 10 years, killing 14,000 people? ‘Cause both the secession AND the shelling kind of make be think their support was somewhere lower than 100%. They were “Heavily armed” because guns are illegal there and no one has on the ground experience with them?

    Melitopol. These gains was not so much by force of arms but by one-and-done efforts of fifth-columnists and spies holding Ukrainian public offices”

    …So you mean the thousands of spies and turncoats in your country with 100% solidarity support?

    “fighter jets shooting down Russian aircraft and helicopters in large numbers was no myth.”

    Uh-huh. Every. Sentence. Every one. Talk about the “Big Lie” he uses like a mantra 50 times! There is no stone unturned for telling every lie. There is no partisanship or hyperbole unused. There is no logic or fact-checking approached.

    “Russia is little more than a terrorist group like ISIS. Who would voluntarily have anything to do with it?”

    Um. Almost the entire world? Everyone outside of a few irrelevant cities like London, Ottawa, and Sydney? 2/3rds of the world population and arguably about half of people in the nations he claims are against Russia?

    Not to stop with local lies, there are sweeping intellectual lies: “credit IS the economy,” Really? There’s no such thing as cash? But I mean, why not? If he is “100% Support” for every evil war and lie in the West, then he DEFINITELY must 100% believe this one. There is no money. There are no goods. There is no work or economic activity. There is only debt.

    “Russia’s easy war is turning out to be large, crippling and unaffordably costly. … Hydrocarbons are the source of Russia’s income”

    Income of which is higher and better than ever. Both in money terms, and in sales terms. According to Steve, they are going to go bankrupt by selling product at a higher price and making more money for less work. But hey: if you’re a guy who believes all money is credit and cash doesn’t exist, that all makes sense, right?

    Not a trick question yesterday: if they hated war, how did they end up shooting people all day?

    “Who did I serve?” Yes, not only do we know this now, dum-dum, we knew it was all lies then, in 2002. And it’s not for “Profit”: does Europe look like they’re profiting right now? It’s for Religion. Their weirdo religion of universal death. #AntiLogos, #AntiLife.

    “NATO to Proceed with Planned Nuclear Exercises Next Week. Stoltenberg said breaking “routine” would be the “wrong signal to send” right now.

    We all know you win wars using “signals”. I don’t really know what kind of pathology this is, but my thought is they haven’t been punched in the face enough. There’s a cure for that.

    “The purchase of 4.5 billion doses of the covid-19 vaccine for 450 million residents.”

    Yeah, I’ve been seeing this over and over again lately. Talk about welfare queens! You want to know how bad at math the populous are? There you go. Does 2 = 2 ??? Not a trick question. Or does 2 = 200? For corporations and politicians 2 = $2 Billion free dollars.

    “Tulsi” is a collective. As all candidates are. So who is her collective? Where do they live, what do they want, and did they change sides?

    Proposing: they are a VERY small minority of legacy power, trying to re-instate the old Democratic Party from I dunno, the 90s, when Clinton’s platform was identical to Trump’s platform on most everything. But I don’t WANT that platform or party, because we shot through there to get here. Clearly it was neither strong nor honest enough.

    Atlantic: Again, I sound like over-the-top, impossible, spit-foaming hyperbole but I’m not. Here we have a whole city full of brown Muslim people being called Nazi White Supremacists by the leading voice of White Karen from Vassar and Smith Prep all-Girl’s college. How Dare You! Get on that plantation, pick that cotton, brownie! I’ve got keyboard lattes to sip. We mommy-mommy care, oh so much, dearest.

    Clearly there is NO level of pathological that can possibly pop the bubble of Woke White Karens. Also the memo went out that “we hate Kanye” and he’s not black anymore, because Joe and The Atlantic are the Great Deciders of who is, and is not, allowed, by us, to be what they are. Aka, Black. All heil.

    “Putin ‘Totally Miscalculated’ Russia’s Ability to Occupy Ukraine – Biden (G.)”

    Equal to The Atlantic, “The Guardian” and their Putin-telepathy. They are mind-melded and know what he was thinking and planning at all times.

    “No US leader would ever stand by and do nothing while thousands of Americans were savagely slaughtered”

    Like by Pfizer? Or by fentanyl? You are kidding, right? All deaths, at all times, by all people, for all reasons, are a good thing. So long as it profits them.

    But Whitney can say anything he likes — Everyone is innoculated against it. They either are subjects to “The Narrative” or broken away from it. Here’s another way to look at it: they are either tuned into and channeling “Spirit of AntiChrist”, or that of “Christ Consciousness.” That is how they get “the memo” that we Kanye is no longer black and we lynch him now.

    What you get is where you put your attention. They are allied with this. In “Revelation”, that is, the Great Revealing, we become aware of long-hidden information, and even the very elect are deceived. That is, the Fallacy of Authority, the “Experts”. We are choosing sides in the Great Spiritual War, in the foggiest terms, will we be “Good” or “Evil”? Will we live for ourselves, our egos alone, or are we of “All-One-God-Faith”? This is a very deep choosing of who you actually are, and I can’t tell you who you are. It’s more a fact, not a choice.

    So all sides are preaching to the choir exclusively. Words are meaningless, perhaps, and only actions matter. You will die for your cause if they have anything to say about it.

    In fact, come to think of it, the Left has now moved beyond keyboard lattes and are discussing how to arm up with fully-auto weapons on Reddit. That’s an ominous turn considering how violent and unhinged they are. …And how relentlessly infantile and inexperienced.

    “NATO Planned a Pre-emptive Strike on Russia (Milacic)”

    I have no idea what they’re saying here. I mean, yes, the U.S. has always, now and forever, since Stalin snatched them away from London Trotskyites, wanted to attack and conquer Russia. We have arranged everything, every month of every year to that end. We altered our weapons and changed out nuclear treaties and protocols to allow it. However, you don’t attack Russia from Sicily. Like WTF. The whole POINT of Ukraine was that we needed first strike 15m or less from Moscow or it wasn’t feasible. Polaris is just another average practice-run to attack Russia, like every other one we had for 70 years.

    And if it’s a “Surprise” why did you HAVE the exercise? And name Kiev specifically? Not much of a surprise. The Russian-Sakers need to back up from emotion and partisanship and think clearly again. Thank God – afaikt – Putin and the Generals aren’t, and I don’t care how irritating that is to them.

Nothing can cure it, clearly not even death.

    “…the sanctions “didn’t fulfill the hopes that were pinned on them,”

    Sure they did. They’re killing people, and that’s a win. All death at all places and all reasons fulfill our mission and purpose in life.

    “claiming an inability to repair gas turbines because of the Western sanctions.”

    As this is a verifiable fact, this word is of course wicked and relentless propaganda. That’s why in journalism, you don’t “Claim”. You “Said.” Leave your fancy thesaurus at home and I don’t care what the weather was, the color of his shirt, or how you felt about it. Just the facts, ma’am. You’re Fired.

    “it was possible to repair the damaged pipelines but that Russia and the EU should decide their fate.“

    But they are a death cult, worshiping the god of death and lies. They can’t change, as that is their one true religion. Prove me wrong. The salvation will be for the tiny remnant left after the death cult goes full Hale-Bopp. As they already have, past-tense. This is pretty common in history and they take a lot of people with them.

    Only picking the Donkey as it was JFK that time. They – The Dulles, the Three-Letter-men – are tireless, equal-opportunity anti-democracy mass-murderers. This is the key story, as it has all templates and stories before and since in it: 1) The Lettermen lie to, gaslight, and refuse to read the elected government into what’s really going on, especially lying and omitting the President. 2) In order to cause a world war and nuclear armegeddon. 3) the Elected officials then have to special rendition the Lettermen and wire them up on a bucket in Gitmo to find out what they did 4) the quasi-normal humans – saying a lot for the scum that are politicos – then turn off Defcon 5 as idiotic 6) they leave the Lettermen to do it all over again tomorrow. Which they IMMEDIATELY do. “What are we doing tonight, Brain?” “Same thing we do every night: Try to Destroy the whole world.” (In service of our god and religion)

    Can we just cut to the chase in Step 1 and assume correctly it’s these religious fanatics burrowed in, arrest and execute them for quite obvious and evident war crimes, Mr. Bolton? You’d make a mint on pay-per-view.

    “ NATO Eyes 10-Year Plan For Ukraine – Politico (RT)”

    Worse than that: it definitively presumes Ukraine is entirely SUBSERVIENT to NATO. If I make plans that you follow, then I’m your boss, right?

    “long-term commitment” to revitalize Kiev’s military-industrial complex following months of fighting with Russia,”

    Where? They no longer have the mines or the industry, or the non-metrosexuals willing to work. And: There’s a “long-term”? That sounds pretty optimistic. …Not for Ukraine. I mean they actually believe NATO, Europe, and the U.S. will exist by next year, projecting anything. Good luck with that.

    Yes: ESG. Green Horse. It murders people by the hundred-thousands, therefore it’s a great and admirable service. To our god and weirdo religion. They LOSE money on every one of them. Yet they continue without hesitation. You come up with another reason.

    “The central mystery of our time is why, at a moment when the whole political and social system is out of control and in total chaos, no one seems able to imagine any alternative.”

    “We” imagined lots of alternatives. We even trimmed them down to “Leave me the f– alone.” But we are not a Democracy, anywhere in the West, and officially as of 20 years ago the colleges ran that study that said the People have NO effect on any government policy. Even the corporations barely do: look at Germany. Only the Cabal, largely financial. So we’ve moved off vista imagining the horizons, to hunkering down and responding, ‘cause this will be bad. That’s more practical.

    The clue lies in the man who imposed the “shock therapy” experiment on Russia. Called Yegor Gaidar, he was at the heart of the communist establishment.”

    Yes. It will be the communists that do this to us, as they are already, right now. No? Where are the anarcho-capitalists and Libertarians getting in your business, destroying your day? Do they believe in morality and a justice system? Yes, because you can’t have private property without one. Is it too much to just accept the system proven to be least-bad?

    Uh-huh. Because, as an ally of Syria, saving them from the United States, he killed Syrians? Or was he the butcher of…the enemy forces? …Which means 1) You’re a General? 2) See #1. JHC. And they’re not “scaring” you, they’re destroying you: they don’t care if you’re scared or not. How can I be sure? All reports are all NATO is out of weapons to ship as they were all destroyed, Europe-wide, as Russia flattened both the 2nd largest army in Europe in weeks, AND then destroyed all military gear in Europe. Reports no tanks, no reasonable way to move and advance troops without heavy losses. Never any reports of jets or aircraft, at any time, for any purpose, since day 1. Total air superiority.

    Go ahead and tell me how they’re losing so badly trading empty territory for heavy casualties. Do that 2-3x and there is no army and you can take all the “Land war in Asia” you want. Mao said the same thing. But they haven’t collapsed yet, so I’m taking an L here, clearly mis-predicted something. (E. European mercenaries paid w US$)

    I see the Economist loves MissTruss. With enemies like these, I like her better and better. Commenters said her (election) policies were very ordinary, just thoughtless, normal Tory things, which had their origin in the 80s. Need to get business some footing with tax cuts, etc. Problem being, as thoughtless in a crisis, their time had passed, and even in the 80s they misunderstood them. That seems a pretty sensible understanding of a back-bencher. No different than we complain about with Ryan, Cruz, Joe, and Hillary. Doddering, brainless dinosaurs, roaming the landscape with petrified ideas. And none of them under 80, same age as our jets.

    Yeah, we’ve had to mention that every day. NATO sinks battleships = not in the war. Got it. And all the people believe it, seeing nothing wrong with this logic at all. An army of marching morons, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

    ““Now is the right time to be firm and to be clear that NATO is there to protect and defend all allies.” …by causing a war in their backyard, that will destroy them and not us. As yesterday: “with allies like these…”

    Again, with reporters and words. Words have no meaning. I don’t own a dictionary. Never called anyone on a phone. Got a participation trophy so never had to admit I was wrong at Columbia J. Therefore I’m perfect fodder for a newsroom!

    What is “Sabotage”? An INSIDE job. A pipe worker “Sabotages” a pipe in secret before it it laid on the ocean, only later realizing the expensive fault. A millworker “sabotages” his machine with a shoe, then takes a 2-hour break while it’s fixed.

    Who is the supposed “saboteur” here? No one. No worker/employee was anywhere near it. No, it is an “Attack”, a “Bombing”, by a state-run military force (due to depth and difficulty), and therefore an act of State Warfare, on the nation state of Germany and Russia, the two owners and participants. I mean, unless you think it was the actual Germany military, directed by the official German Government, it isn’t “sabotage.”

    Words have meanings. No meanings: no words. No words, no logic. #AntiLogos. We are against any mental sense and against anyone reaching the Truth, at any time, for any reason. The Left always attacks language first, middle, and last.

    “Russia is running out of missiles!”

    Because this was said, it’s a lie. We are fairly sure Russia has the capacity to manufacture more than they are using. This may be why they’re so sparing with them right now, but still. I suspect rather they produce more but they are sparing bc they need to stockpile many, many more for a possible open field war with NATO, and must create a stunning, overwhelming reserve.

    200 missiles level the country. This tells you what infrastructure can do. Unprotected. Which is not really fair, unlike Carrington, you can’t really protect against modern missile strikes. What would you do? Put all power lines and substations 80’ below ground? Yeah, no. 5GW: you’re totally exposed, and exposed, front line 22,000 miles away. The Satellites can see you.

    “The pipeline explosions seemed to eliminate such a future option.”

    Nope, and that’s why Sweden won’t share: it would ancillarily tell Russia how to repair it. If they repair it = they are not the cause. They must be prevented from reviving the victim or they are not the murderer.

    US LNG: I can’t believe Blair/Saker can’t see this is foolish: the US could NEVER have provided Europe, probably even if they had the ships and ports, which is a planet-sized project, never planned or undertaken. The only POSSIBLE conclusion is we never meant to: the only route is to attack, invade, and steal Russia, first by killing every Slav in a Biden genocide. It’s astonishingly obvious: they had 30 years and built nothing. One small port as eyewash. One city on a continent of 300 million. Total foolishness.

    “The enemies are the hostage-takers, Zelensky and Company.”

    Again with words and the obvious: Zelensky is an actor. He isn’t relevant and doesn’t exist, so we should name the REAL people involved. Can you imagine him taking even another actor hostage, in the green room? Neither can I. He’s lower T with limper wrists than Pete Davidson and the Try Guys. Point? HE is probably the one being held hostage. Hostagee, not hostage-er. So who holds the gun to the head, ’cause it ain’t him.

    “Putin Reveals Russia’s Goals in Global Energy Market (RT)”

    Goal: To sell to anyone including Europe. Clearly. They are not fixing NS2 to NOT sell to Germany, right? They are selling to Italy, right? Note: why do I have to keep saying these most obvious things?

    OPEC is cutting because they merely have considerations of national budget. If they have enough money due to high prices actively and voluntarily caused by Europe (thanks Europe!), they have no need to lose more oil: save it for tomorrow. Also the say Russia led the cuts, even as UAE boycotts Reuters for lying (of course, on the payroll of MI6). They each cut by PERCENTAGES, and Russia as a large nation therefore cuts more barrels. Obvious, normal, average, stuff. Which is why reporters fabricate, invent, misunderstand, and lie about it. Knowingly. If they ever told the truth their mouths would burn with everlasting hellfire.

    “But if George Webb is right, [talks] will take place at the end of the month.”

    And do what? Have complete surrender of NATO and their – and Europe’s – collapse because of it?

    “Zelensky recently signed a decree ruling out any dialogue with Putin’s government.”

    So…peace talks on Ukraine, but Ukraine can’t participate? And yet it’s their war and not NATO’s? Why bother with sense? It just makes things more confusing. Yet no one notices.

    “Kiev Introduces Rolling Power Blackouts (RT)”

    Doing far better than Britain. Lira points out that he will have gas, on the front lines – and RUSSIAN gas at that. Britain will not have gas, 1,000 miles from the front. 5GW, new rules, new ironies.

    Tulsi: I can’t tell where she stands or trust what she stands for especially as she is not in and has no current voting record. It’s all blather. Words. Since with “Political Ironies” all candidates do the exact #OPPOSITE of what they run on. Hope and Change!

    Damien Hirst: I wish more modern artists would set fire to their work. Cold winter, plenty of opportunity.

    Gee and all I was going to say (again) was that the CO2 in the wood was only put there last week and is a net zero.

    Still no interaction with that basic fact.

    Kiln drying of firewood is most probably turning gold into lead: burn the natgas not the wood and save yourself some trips to the ER with chainsaw injuries. Obviously standard woodburning is NOT bad by any measure, even as they fabricate the “Air quality” and other rot.

    The Russian war is again: staging the U.S. to be Russia in 1917. We are supposed to have a lost world war, an internal civil war, kill the King, end the Constitution and install automatic space communism after the Red Bolsheviks (Antifa) murder all the White Bolsheviks (military and the middle class, aka MAGA, aka, “Everybody else who can read”). But you can see although that is “The Plan”, it is not “going to plan” because the Red Hats CAN read. And know history a lot better than their Blue-Hat counterparts who are first against the wall after the Revolution comes. Already BLM approval is in the toilet, and they both didn’t do anything AND haven’t had to fight anything. It was enough they were a) violent, and b) corrupt, to lose support. With everyone, Blue and Black included.

    Anyway, this fits in because like Russia 1917, the U.S. will withdraw from the world stage and end empire and that’s totally unavoidable. Thank God. Yes, among other reasons that’s because we have no industry and no bullets, our ships and jets are 50 years old, and we’re an hollow international embarrassment that can’t project power even over Pushtun goat herders, but that’s not the only reason.

    Lying, from the Internet:

    “when your dominant minority stays in power by lying, that’s a sign that it doesn’t have the strength to rule by force. The more blatant the dishonesty, and the more the minority believes its own lies, the more likely you are to see everything unravel in the fairly short order. The US uses as much fraud as it does because its dominant minority is extremely vulnerable. “

    Polemos, strangely, after dead-on 222222 for the war — and these guys love their numerology and astrology — I am seeing them reliably report it as 2 – 24 for some reason. Do they think we didn’t notice? Or notice why? Why’d you change it, who are you covering up for? Stranger than just letting sleeping dogs lie.

    I can’t believe they’re still at it: UK, Germany, printing “subsidies” for residential natural gas. Okay, great! The people finally get something other than war (because of the war). Problem? There are say 100k “Units” of gas in all Europe. That has to be divided between them. If they 2x the “money” available for it, they 2x the price. And there are still 100k “units”, no additional gas.

    So you CAN cause inflation, even hyperinflation, and you STILL can’t heat houses.

    This is not rocket science. …Unless Germany and UK are unfairly stealing their ration of gas from Italy and Spain?

    I guess I should add, in a “normal” subsidy (if there is such a thing) raising prices would then increase supply using a thing called “Capitalism” that Europe has outlawed. They would get the gas from “Gas Wells” and suppliers like Russia whom they have outlawed. Then the high prices would ration stupid uses, where reducing use they have outlawed. That’s why they have the subsidy: so you can keep using without rationing, even if you’re one Al Gore in one of his many 5,000sq ft houses.

    “France to Spend €100 Billion to… Fight Inflation” I say keep going. You won’t learn until they float the next Assignat.

    10-year bumping back on 4%, making a nice continuing chart that needs confirmation breakthrough.

    US$ approaching the long high of 120. Europe (and the UN) literally attacking us and the Fed because “we all need to devalue in unison or there’ll be inflation”. No, YOU’ll have the inflation you asked for. We’ll just have reality be obvious and admitted for a change.

    I think that means we’re headed in the right direction, and it’s having a deep effect that is too late for them to divert from. In other words: Davos is screwed. Their plans to take over the world and run it from the UN with Eco-fascism is unworkable. However, we still need the long, deadly march from Normandy to Berlin. I suspect they’ll get it in, get their 3 1/2 years of Tribulation before it all blows to h–l on them. That’s an Israeli-Euro prophesy not an American one. They’ve already killed more people than ever in history in just 2 years and no one notices, they demand it, eager for more.

    “This Is Serious”: Jamie Dimon Says S&P Could Shed Another 20%, Warns of US Recession In 6 To 9 Months”

    And who will survive? Where will global capital flow?

    Look at it this way: What does Dow, Gold, Bitcoin look like not here, where they’re flat to down, but in Pounds, in Europe? Yeah, that’s a 30% rise in BTC for them though a big zero for us Americanos. It looks like an AWESOME investment. These perceptions matter, strangely, because if you’re in England, Japan, Canada, you can spend that ‘perception’ in real dollars.

    PayPal Stock ‘Fined’ 6% after Flood of Users Cancel over $2,500 ‘Misinformation’ Debacle”

    This was fun: PayPal says they reserve the right to “Fine” you (their words) $2,500 for ANY bad words on ANY platform, anywhere, at any time, or in real life, at their sole discretion, with no process or appeal. And they’re not a court, where the word “fine” means something. That’s not the funny part. The funny part is, they said releasing this was “an accident” (an accident? You create grave, long-winded press releases for things you have no plans on doing, like your policy concerning PayPal use among Sasquatch?) No, the FUNNY part is, their statement on misinformation…is misinformation. So should they fine themselves 10,000 times and give the money to US? I think so. Cue the lawsuits.

    Who is “Disinformation” to Chad at Twitter? Oh, you know, Doctors, Nurses, Pharma Execs, State Surgeon Generals… All things “Not Us.” All things “not Ego”. All things “Not Profit”.

    It shouldn’t have to be said, but it seems the internet is saying blowing the bridge is a serious business, connects Russia to critical Crimea, etc, etc. Are we being real here? They JUST took 4 whole STATES and have a 100-mile wide land connection to Crimea. They have no need of the bridge at all, really, since clearly they have a stake in the ground in keeping the whole land bridge and don’t need the sea bridge.

    I’m sure bridges are very nice, direct route East, biggest in world, record time, all that, but really?

    It’s a war: barely worth keeping it functional except as a backup route.

    Pipeline, blown by “Washington”? Not so much. So we have a terrorist group blowing multi-billion dollar infrastructure, threatening the whole world, probably killing tens of thousands, far surpassing 911 and…nothing.

    Covid Booter shots refused: You know, the shots that don’t stop Covid and don’t stop the spread.

    Obviously they don’t like that because the Doctor saying it is Black. Must. Stop. All. Black. People. They must. Obey. White Karen. Biden decides who is Black or not, and you ain’t Black, Jack! (no, literally, Joe said this.)

    If Webb is right, would YOU negotiate peace if you were Putin? Why? They are “Not Agreement Capable”. The last two times they lost they threw a coup, then spent 8 years training a Nazi army of racist civilian killers (not an exaggeration). And you’d stop now for why? So they can re-reinforced Azov again? So you can just let them keep your $800B dollars they stole? They’re not giving it back, they’re “Not agreement capable.” They still have Ukraine, Libya’s, and Venezuela’s gold.

    Kunstler: “Maybe we’ve had enough of romancing death.” Nope. Love it more than ever. It is our one true love and sole desire.

    “shows beyond any doubt that West has now set a course on total terrorist warfare.”

    Nope: the word “Terrorist” like the word “Racist” now means all things, all nouns, verbs, adjectives, all math and all human actions in all time and space. That is to say: it means nothing. Thumbs down on Twitter? “Terrorist”. Vote against Joe Biden (while creating a worldwide nuclear holocaust and the end of humans on earth in a fiery, flesh-melting radiation)? You’re a Terrorist.

    Definition: Terrorists create “Terror”. That is to say, as a tactic they are dead-useless, accomplishing nothing, because otherwise, their tactic would be called “War”. Their tactic is ALSO dead-useless because YOU have to be a milksop, crying, whining p—-y, who is afraid of life and everything in it. That is YOU are WILLING, ready, anxious even, to experience “Terror” and get your Woke points on in the Woke Olympics, having hurt your feels. Because YOU having “Terror” is an INTERNAL PSYCHOLOGICAL STATE, which is controlled by YOU. Not them.

    None of this is “Terror”. At all. It isn’t randomly blowing up a school bus of children, holding them hostage then killing them one by one to wring it out as long as possible. –And if you were an Indian, you’d know it’s just a war, they’re just planning on killing your children anyway, someday, because that’s what “They” do, and today is just that day, and a good day to die. There is no “terror” in that, there is only inevitability. Because “they”, the dominant culture, just steals, attacks and kills ALL things (all things “Not them”, not “ego”) because that is what they do. So when your sworn enemy, who attacks and kills things every day, finally gets around to your town, your Indian school, your kids: that’s just war. No terror involved. And there’s no advantage, because only IF you fall into fear and abandon all your cultural principles does it matter if they’re trying to kill you – and your kids – AGAIN. If you are you, and have your principles, and don’t join cultures that kill everything they’ve ever met, then how can you fear? You simply respond because you already knew this was coming, and coming for 30 years. You just had a little off-base R&R first.

    Cutting your phone lines, not shipping those extra Twinkies, is not “terror”. Likewise, cutting your petrol is not “terror”. Cutting your Ukrainian Starlink is not “terror”. Cutting your natural gas is not “terror.” It’s war.

    So we have a War on Infrastructure, worldwide. And that is a War on all Civilians and Humans, worldwide. They are killing humans, maximum, because they hate all humans, maximum, and want all humans to die, maximum. Have you not read their papers? Then read their headlines: if all humans don’t die, RIGHT NOW, the Earth will burn up and vanish from it’s orbit around the sun, and then how will I golf on my favorite private course in Tuscon? I mean: Priorities, people! Let’s blow some s—t up right away! As many kids as possible! Let’s Light up some cities, man! (misspelled it yesterday) Nuclear exchange forever! When do we want it? Now!

    Okay, again, don’t let them float this word like “hate speech” “misinformation” or “terrorism” then expand it’s meaning to all items and people in the universe. Words have meanings. This word is being as misused as saying you want a “Watermelon” when really you meant “Respiration”.

    Worldwide War on Infrastructure. = Worldwide War on Humans. And a war against Life itself, on earth, in all forms. And all #Logos. Now what religion is that? What god? Yes, it sounds like I’m exaggerating when I say it, but I’m not. Deduce for yourself from their most vigorous actions.

    “Yes, this is Satanism against any sort of Spiritual Tradition.” From the next article. It sounds strange when he, they, say it, but what other accurate definition and conclusion could one draw?

    “I thought I would die long before it would happen, even if it did happen. I was waiting for the end of the world and now hope has been given us.”

    Yeah, me too waiting for any such speech at home here. Except “We’re arresting Hillary” speech. But that means we would have to ACT on such empty words and they haven’t. And Putin has only a leeeetle bit. Because he will ask YOU to act, and die, for it.

    “Ukraine Halts Electricity Exports to EU (RT)”

    Because nobody will tell the truth AND every reporter and Western person is a drooling moron, I can’t figure out what’s happening. But this response is beginning to make sense. Who is attacking? Europe and NATO. Why? Because without killing, dismantling, and selling off Russia, they collapse. Therefore, attack Europe and not Ukraine or whatever chihuahua is ankle-biting. How? By letting them die from non-bombs, economically.

    “exactly as were two airliners aimed at the Twin Towers. Those were all…… terrorism.”

    No they were not. Because I was not afraid, and also didn’t care. So a building catches on fire in NY somewhere? Happens every day. Fewer people died than die in traffic accidents. The only risk for such an astonishing non-action, and non-attack, was if we were to overreact. And thank God Osama wrote that his whole intention and war-plan was to make the U.S. overreact, destroy all our own laws and values, and bankrupt ourselves, so clearly we could avoid it. Right?

    It’s not terrorism if you’re not afraid. Man up, Daisy-Mae. And it’s not an “Attack” if if hits useless objects of no military or economic relevance, and therefore an organism as large as the United States is almost perfectly unscathed, as if a hive had lost two soldier bees. Get a grip. They did not, because they are not men, and also not Americans. They are men-shaped, General shaped objects like Milley is, deserving neither thought nor respect.

    “Trump Shreds Four Former Presidents, Hillary Clinton (CB)”

    Conservative Brief obeys all the Leftist adjectives and all the Left’s talking points. Which side are they on here? Trump must always “tear into”, “Rail against”, etc. You’re a journalist, therefore the only word we use is “Mr. Trump ‘Said.’” Except in unique conditions, any other presentation is propaganda. And you’re propaganda-persuading AGAINST yourself. What sense does that make? If you’re going to be an Activist, not a journalist (crazy, I know), then at least be an Activist for the right side. Very standard, which is why the Republican Party should and needs to be erased. Happily, all sides agree on this goal.

    “Americans today are more likely to believe in witches, ghosts, and astrology than to trust the federal government.”

    Yes, and along with the fantasies they print at real – that any statement by any government should be credited at all – there are probably more people who believe in Flat Earth than there are KKK members. Or them and the Nazis combined. Or even what we used to call racists, back when words had actual meanings. That is, people who admit, are proud to be racist, and wouldn’t stay in the same room with other races. If you poll on that right now, no one will admit it, so there are probably fewer “racists” in America than transgender people. Want to test me? Look it up.

    Assange “But federal agencies are creating trillions of pages of new “classified’ secrets each year.”

    Yes, because they “Classify” everything. For no reason. They just don’t want any oversight, and don’t want you to look at it. No one reviews if if SHOULD be classified, ever. No one de-classifies. No one gets clearance and reads it to get oversight (like Congress). That is, the bureaucracy is an unaccountable, unelected government unto itself, who is a foreign occupier against YOU, against The People. The DGAF government. Pay me. Shut up or I’ll arrest you. Worse than pre-revolutionary France.

    From the Internet:

    “with allies like the USA, who needs enemies? And being the US’s ally also means you’re stuck being enemies with the US’s enemies. So you’ve got an ally that doesn’t treat you like an ally, and a bunch of enemies you didn’t make mad at you because you’re allies with the US. It’s increasingly hard to see the advantage…”

    Good way to put it.
