A lot of the time, I don’t know what to think about Elon Musk. Part of me thinks of him as a marketing genius who plays a real life genius–in a way, a sort of snake oil salesman, with a lot of sizzle and not much steak. Like he’s better at selling products than developingContinue reading “Glenn Greenwald on Elon Musk’s Bid to Buy Twitter”
How to Gauge Russia’s Progress in Ukraine
First of all, absolutely do not listen to the media. Don’t even listen to a word they say. Not a single word. It is literally all lies. So we’ve ruled the US media out. But how are we supposed to know how the war is going if we don’t know who we can trust? Well,Continue reading “How to Gauge Russia’s Progress in Ukraine”
Lithium Battery-Powered Electric Vehicles Are a Fairytale
I don’t care how many Teslas and EVs are on the road today. The whole EV industry is unsustainable, and this will all end in disaster—and probably more than a few SEC investigations. Let’s start with the fact that EVs are not anywhere near as “clean” and “green” as they’re cracked up to be. WhereContinue reading “Lithium Battery-Powered Electric Vehicles Are a Fairytale”
Europe’s Plan to End its Reliance on Russian Natural Gas is Doomed
And applying even the slightest bit of logical thinking to the situation would make that fact plainly obvious: if Europe actually had a viable alternative to Russian gas, don’t you think they would have switched over to it a long time ago? Europe—especially Germany—needs Russian natural gas. It’s unavoidable. It’s inescapable. They rely on RussiaContinue reading “Europe’s Plan to End its Reliance on Russian Natural Gas is Doomed”
What The Heck is Going on With the Stock Market Right Now?
If you pay attention to the markets, you have probably noticed the extremely odd movements underway right now. Just when it seemed like the party was over and the bear market had begun, the market starts absolutely RAMPAGING higher. The Nasdaq index, which had been just beaten mercilessly since early January, dropping about 24% fromContinue reading “What The Heck is Going on With the Stock Market Right Now?”
NBC News: Covid PPP Loans Enabled “Biggest Fraud in US History”
Fraud, grift, scams, and bamboozlements are at an all-time high. It’s not just crypto, NFTs, stocks and online career gurus: They bought Lamborghinis, Ferraris and Bentleys. And Teslas, of course. Lots of Teslas. Many who participated in what prosecutors are calling the largest fraud in U.S. history — the theft of hundreds of billions of dollars in taxpayer money intended toContinue reading “NBC News: Covid PPP Loans Enabled “Biggest Fraud in US History””
Bloomberg: “Strategic Splits Emerging” Within NATO Ranks
Is NATO in the early stages of unraveling? It appears so. Bloomberg: As NATO allies discuss the terms of any potential peace deal to be struck between Russia and Ukraine, signs of strategic splits are emerging from within their ranks. With the war now in its second month, a series of dilemmas are coming intoContinue reading “Bloomberg: “Strategic Splits Emerging” Within NATO Ranks”
Ruble Gains Against US Dollar, Yield Curves Invert, Home Prices Out of Control
Russia has announced that as of March 31, all of its gas exports to Europe are to be priced and paid for in rubles: No rubles, no gas. Those are Russia’s terms now. This is obviously expected because America and NATO have taken steps to sanction Russia into economic oblivion. So why would Russia continueContinue reading “Ruble Gains Against US Dollar, Yield Curves Invert, Home Prices Out of Control”
Biden: We’re Going to Have Food Shortages
Aren’t you glad the Adults are back in charge? You must starve for Ukraine, plebes: Many grocery stores in America have had bare or half-empty shelves for the better part of the last year. But it’s going to get even worse, Biden says. This is all being done by choice. It doesn’t have to beContinue reading “Biden: We’re Going to Have Food Shortages”
It’s All Spin and Lies from the US Government
Yesterday, our Fearless Leader informed us that he was heading to Europe to “rally the international community” and “ensure Putin pays a severe economic cost for his war of choice.” Wow, awesome, look at what a big tough guy Brandon is with his sunglasses. Putin must be quivering in his boots! Notice anything wrong withContinue reading “It’s All Spin and Lies from the US Government”
America’s Catastrophic Blunder
We’ve gone over on this site how idiotic and antagonistic the US has been toward Russia, and how if America wasn’t so greedy and power-mad there never would have been a war in Ukraine. I came across a phenomenal thread on Twitter that I think does a great job of summarizing just how disastrous America’sContinue reading “America’s Catastrophic Blunder”
Shocker: Canadian Poll Finds Major Divergence in Views on Ukraine Between Vaxxed/Unvaxxed
It’s almost as if your susceptibility to falling for the last media propaganda campaign strongly correlates to your susceptibility to falling for the current one: So 86% of those who are triple-vaxxed want tougher economic sanctions on Russia compared to just 13% of unvaccinated. 52% of triple-vaxxed want to lend fighter jets to Ukraine, onlyContinue reading “Shocker: Canadian Poll Finds Major Divergence in Views on Ukraine Between Vaxxed/Unvaxxed”
People Magazine: More and More Young People Suffering Blood Clots & Stroke-like Symptoms
But don’t you dare say what I know you’re thinking of saying: Hailey Baldwin Bieber is recovering after developing a blood clot that moved to her brain, a health problem that is happening in “younger and younger people” says a vascular neurologist. Bieber, 25, shared on Saturday that she was eating breakfast with husband JustinContinue reading “People Magazine: More and More Young People Suffering Blood Clots & Stroke-like Symptoms”
Saudis Considering Pricing Oil Sales to China in Yuan, Rejecting Dollar
I wrote recently about the petrodollar system whereby all oil sales around the world are priced and transacted in US dollars, and about how this is a major part of the US dollar’s status as global reserve currency. I also wrote about how the events of the past few weeks could mark the beginning ofContinue reading “Saudis Considering Pricing Oil Sales to China in Yuan, Rejecting Dollar”
Western Mercenaries Volunteering to Fight for Ukraine Are Getting a Very Rude Awakening
This is something else: It really does seem like a lot of these guys have really bought into the pro-Ukraine propaganda that is ubiquitous in Western nations. They believed they were going to be kicking Russkie ass, not having hellfire rained down on them from above by Russia’s near-complete air supremacy. This is really somethingContinue reading “Western Mercenaries Volunteering to Fight for Ukraine Are Getting a Very Rude Awakening”
Drill This Into Your Head: Oil Spikes = Recession
A fantastic chart from Jim Bianco on Twitter: This chart does not show the price of oil. It shows the percentage deviation from the trend in the price of oil. Any time oil has spiked more than 50% above the price trend, it has preceded a recession. 2008, 2001, 1991, 1980, 1974, 1970–all years ofContinue reading “Drill This Into Your Head: Oil Spikes = Recession”
Facebook & Instagram to Temporarily Allow Calls for Violence Against Russians
This is not made up: Let’s take a look at the article itself: Meta Platforms (FB.O) will allow Facebook and Instagram users in some countries to call for violence against Russians and Russian soldiers in the context of the Ukraine invasion, according to internal emails seen by Reuters on Thursday, in a temporary change to its hateContinue reading “Facebook & Instagram to Temporarily Allow Calls for Violence Against Russians”
Quantitative Easing is Officially Over
Today, the Federal Reserve made its final bond purchase of the Covid QE monetary program: Today, March 9, also marks the 13 year anniversary of the start of the post-Great Recession bull market rally, although it has been some time since the markets made a new high, and the bull market may in fact alreadyContinue reading “Quantitative Easing is Officially Over”
Further Humiliation: Saudis, UAE Refuse to Take Biden’s Calls on Increasing Oil Output
The Globalist American Empire (GAE) suffers yet another bodyblow: Saudi and UAE leaders are refusing to take Biden’s calls as the US president tries to contain surging oil prices, according to the Wall Street Journal, which adds that the Persian Gulf monarchies have signaled “they won’t help ease surging oil prices unless Washington supports them in Yemen,Continue reading “Further Humiliation: Saudis, UAE Refuse to Take Biden’s Calls on Increasing Oil Output”
The Bush-Era Neocons Are Attempting to Rise from the Ashes and Recapture the Republican Party
Ukraine is their golden opportunity to Make Neoconservatism Great Again, only this time, they’re rebranding as “realists” and dropping all the platitudes about “spreading democracy.” Ben Domenech tries to chart a new course forward for Republican foreign policy, but his recommendation is simply for a re-branded version of 2000s Bush-era neoconservatism: The Russian invasion ofContinue reading “The Bush-Era Neocons Are Attempting to Rise from the Ashes and Recapture the Republican Party”
Clint Ehrlich: Russia On Verge of “Annihilating” the Bulk of Ukrainian Army
A dose of reality amid all the delusional propaganda and fake news: This is what I mean by delusional propaganda and fake news. The voices being elevated on social media right now are the ones spreading the most misinformation and lies. If you follow mainstream sources on this war, you are literally getting the oppositeContinue reading “Clint Ehrlich: Russia On Verge of “Annihilating” the Bulk of Ukrainian Army”
Lindsey Graham: Someone Needs to Assassinate Vladimir Putin
For the crime of daring to assert his country’s own national interest at the expense of America’s complete and unchecked world hegemony: It if is not abundantly clear by now, we are not the good guys. More accurately, the people in charge of America are not the good guys. For the better part of theContinue reading “Lindsey Graham: Someone Needs to Assassinate Vladimir Putin”
Russia’s Capture of Kherson Was a Major Moment in the War
I initially thought this would be a very easy war for the Russians to win, and that victory would be secured within a few days tops due to mass surrender on the part of Ukraine. I was not alone in this belief–I follow a few Russian accounts on Twitter and they were extremely optimistic atContinue reading “Russia’s Capture of Kherson Was a Major Moment in the War”
NY State Study: Pfizer Vax Was Just 12% Effective Among Kids 5-11 During Omicron
I haven’t written much about Covid-19 lately given the situation with the war in Ukraine, which has basically (and miraculously!) ended the pandemic. But I did want to highlight this study from New York State’s Department of Health, which found that, basically, there is virtually no argument for mandating the Covid shot for kids: PfizerContinue reading “NY State Study: Pfizer Vax Was Just 12% Effective Among Kids 5-11 During Omicron”
The Race is On
As I see it, the war in Ukraine right now is a race. The Russians must force the surrender of the Zelenskiy government before the Zelenskiy government convinces NATO to join on its side. It’s increasingly clear that the Zelenskiy government’s only hope here is to frame this as a humanitarian crisis: “The Russians areContinue reading “The Race is On”
Wall Street Warns: Booting Russia From SWIFT Could Damage Global “Supremacy of US Dollar”
When I say that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine marks the end of America’s global hegemony, I am not overreacting. This is from Bloomberg: Some of Wall Street’s largest banks told lawmakers and the Biden administration that kicking Russia off the SWIFT financial-messaging system would have far-reaching fallout that could hurt the global economy and undermineContinue reading “Wall Street Warns: Booting Russia From SWIFT Could Damage Global “Supremacy of US Dollar””
Do You Want to Be On The Same Side as These People?
George Soros has some strong views on Russia-Ukraine: Hillary Clinton doesn’t just #StandWithUkraine, she wants to crack down on Americans who don’t sufficiently support going to war with Russia: If you have been stirred into a warlike and Russophobic fervor, and you find yourself overcome with the desire to go to war with Russia, youContinue reading “Do You Want to Be On The Same Side as These People?”
Western Sanctions on Russia May be Playing into a Putin-Xi Plan to End the Petrodollar System
I found a good thread on Twitter about the possible economic endgame in play here. The “petrodollar system” is simply the fact that globally, since the end of the gold standard in 1971, oil has been priced and thereby paid for by US dollars. To say that the US dollar is a pure fiat currencyContinue reading “Western Sanctions on Russia May be Playing into a Putin-Xi Plan to End the Petrodollar System”
Understanding Russia’s Real Strategy in Ukraine
This video is a bit long, but if you’ve got the time, this guy does a great job explaining why it’s apparently “taking so long” for the Russians to win this war: Now I don’t know much about the guy in the video, his channel on YouTube is called Coach Red Pill, but he isContinue reading “Understanding Russia’s Real Strategy in Ukraine”
Russo-Ukrainian War, Day 2: Russian Forces Descend on Kiev
The first thing I want to emphasize here is that there is a lot of information pouring in, and we should not trust everything we see and hear on social media. This is a war, and there are competing narratives. Both sides are trying to project strength and boost morale, and there is an entireContinue reading “Russo-Ukrainian War, Day 2: Russian Forces Descend on Kiev”
🚨 The Invasion of Ukraine Has Begun– Taiwan Next?
Last night, at about 9:30pm eastern time, the long-awaited Russian invasion of Ukraine commenced. The Russian military began with precision airstrikes on Ukrainian air defense sites, essentially grabbing total and complete air dominance. This is an absolute necessity in modern warfare. After opening with strategic airstrikes to both disable key Ukrainian defenses and demoralize theContinue reading “🚨 The Invasion of Ukraine Has Begun– Taiwan Next?”
Fall of Kiev Imminent? Ukrainian Prez Zelenskiy Begs Russian Citizens to Stop Putin from Launching Invasion
Look at this man’s face. Look at his eyes. This is a man who has lost all hope, and has no other option but to await his fate: Kiev is officially in a state of emergency, and the Ukrainian President knows all hope is lost. At this point, all he can do is hope PutinContinue reading “Fall of Kiev Imminent? Ukrainian Prez Zelenskiy Begs Russian Citizens to Stop Putin from Launching Invasion”
Markets on the Brink as Ukraine Declares State of Emergency
US stock indices are sitting at major long-term support levels: You can see that the S&P 500 is at its Jan. 24 low. It is crucial for the index to bounce off this level, or else it essentially confirms stocks are in a full-blown downtrend characterized by lower lows and lower highs (as opposed toContinue reading “Markets on the Brink as Ukraine Declares State of Emergency”
CBSNews Ratio’d into Oblivion for Claiming Ukraine Crisis is Causing Economic Problems in the US
The US media has zero credibility: Of course no one’s buying it. You can see the 29,000 responses to the tweet, most of which are ripping CBS news to shreds. The media now have their marching orders: all the economic problems the US is facing right now are due to the situation in Ukraine. AllContinue reading “CBSNews Ratio’d into Oblivion for Claiming Ukraine Crisis is Causing Economic Problems in the US”
Biden: Americans Must Pay Higher Gas Prices to “Defend Freedom” in Ukraine
The US government cares more about Ukraine than it does about you: Apparently we’ve imposed sanctions on Russia, but it appears regular everyday Americans are the ones paying the price. It’s all worth it, though. I am fine paying higher gas prices if I know Joe and Hunter Biden’s corrupt business dealings in Ukraine areContinue reading “Biden: Americans Must Pay Higher Gas Prices to “Defend Freedom” in Ukraine”
Americans Need to Stop Viewing Putin Like a Movie Villain
The big story right now is Putin’s official recognition of eastern Ukraine, specifically Donetsk and Luhansk, which will assuredly lead to their annexation by Russia. This is supposedly the greatest horror in international affairs since Hitler annexed the Sudetenland in 1938. NATO’s Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg called this “the most dangerous moment for European securityContinue reading “Americans Need to Stop Viewing Putin Like a Movie Villain”
Triple-Vaxxed Queen Elizabeth II has Covid-19, Appears to be Taking Ivermectin
Why is the Queen a science-denying horse paste eater? If ivermectin is good enough for the Queen, why is everyone else discouraged from taking it?
Putin: Russia Recognizes the Independence of Donetsk & Luhansk
At around 10pm Moscow time, 2pm Washington time, Russian President Putin went on television and delivered an address in which he announced he was officially recognizing the breakaway republics of Donetsk and Luhansk, located on the eastern Ukrainian border and under de facto Russian control since 2014: It is now expected that the pro-Russian authoritiesContinue reading “Putin: Russia Recognizes the Independence of Donetsk & Luhansk”
Bloomberg: The Fed is Heading Towards a Hard Landing
This article by Lisa Abramowicz, a very good financial reporter who I would recommend following, appeared in Bloomberg’s opinion section. In it she argues that the Federal Reserve’s Higher risk assets are sending a concerning message to the Federal Reserve: the central bank either needs move more quickly and aggressively to tighten monetary policy, orContinue reading “Bloomberg: The Fed is Heading Towards a Hard Landing”
Putin’s Ultimate Goal
You know I have been harping on this point for weeks now, that Putin’s true goal is to recapture the lands of the old Russian empire from the days of the Tsars. Ukrainian independence is a new and modern occurrence, and has only been the norm for the past 30 years or so since theContinue reading “Putin’s Ultimate Goal”
When Will The Stock Market Stabilize?
The short answer is: maybe not for a long time. But I want to go into a bit more detail on some of the main reasons I believe the stock market pain is not over and will likely continue, possibly for the foreseeable future. 1. Investors Are Still Bullish on Stocks There is still aContinue reading “When Will The Stock Market Stabilize?”
Police Are Not Your Friends
I have to say it. As we see police storm into Ottawa and begin arresting protesters, the main thought on my mind is not that I’m angry at Justin Trudeau. I mean, I am, but ultimately what he’s doing is expected. He’s Klaus Schwab’s little minion. He’s doing as he’s told. It’s hard for someoneContinue reading “Police Are Not Your Friends”
21st Century Financial Fascism Has Been Unleashed in Canada
A fantastic point: The government of Canada is now compelling virtually every financial institution you can think of to freeze the assets of anyone involved in the Trucker protests in any way shape or form. The reason they discourage cash and want all financial transactions digitized is because that way, they can track and controlContinue reading “21st Century Financial Fascism Has Been Unleashed in Canada”
Russia’s Recapture of Ukraine is Imminent
I have been hesitant to write about the situation in Ukraine for the past week or so because of the conflicting news headlines and the lack of any apparent changes to the status quo over that time span. Russia was said to be backing down, but then it turned out they were actually moving closerContinue reading “Russia’s Recapture of Ukraine is Imminent”
Twitter Bans, then Un-Bans, @DefiantLs, AKA The Best Account on Twitter
Now bear with me here because this is not just a frivolous “Twitter story,” there’s a larger point I want to make. If you’re not on Twitter I’ll briefly explain the background: this account, @DefiantLs, takes screenshots of people’s tweets and then goes back through their history and finds a tweet where they blatantly andContinue reading “Twitter Bans, then Un-Bans, @DefiantLs, AKA The Best Account on Twitter”
The Karenization of the US Economy
15 years after the peak of the Housing Bubble, home prices in the US have hit a new record high: However, unlike last time around, where an outsized number of mortgages were handed out to subprime borrowers (people with low credit scores) and subsequently securitized into highly risky assets that ultimately blew up and nearlyContinue reading “The Karenization of the US Economy”
As Canadian Provinces Continue Dropping Covid Restrictions, It Becomes Clear That Justin Trudeau is a Total and Complete Moron
The Truckers are winning: The Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec recently announced they will gradually end their COVID-19 vaccine passport systems. Quebec’s passport system will no longer be in effect in public places by March 14, according to officials. In Ontario, the proof-of-vaccination mandate will end at the beginning of March. These decisions comeContinue reading “As Canadian Provinces Continue Dropping Covid Restrictions, It Becomes Clear That Justin Trudeau is a Total and Complete Moron”
Pfizer is Now the Government: Project Veritas Gets FDA Exec on Tape Saying Annual Covid Shots Will Be Mandatory for Everyone
He admits everything. Everything. He says the approval process is rigged. He says it’s all so Pfizer can get billions of dollars in guaranteed recurring income. It is as bad as you could possibly imagine: He says the pharma companies pay the FDA hundreds of millions per year to approve their products. They are planningContinue reading “Pfizer is Now the Government: Project Veritas Gets FDA Exec on Tape Saying Annual Covid Shots Will Be Mandatory for Everyone”
What is Worse: Inflation or Deflation?
Amidst all this talk about inflation lately, one could be forgiven for forgetting the existence of the yin to inflation’s yang, deflation. Joe of Heresy Financial on YouTube recently brought up an interesting point on the matter, and essentially his point was that the Fed cares way more about deflation than it does about inflation.Continue reading “What is Worse: Inflation or Deflation?”
Ottawa Police Chief Steps Down One Day After Trudeau’s Emergency Order
This seems like a story more people should be talking about: There’s not much to the story as of now: Ottawa’s top municipal law-enforcement officer stepped down amid a trucker-led protest against vaccine mandates in Canada’s capital that is now in its third week. Police Chief Peter Sloly, whose largely hands-off approach to the crisisContinue reading “Ottawa Police Chief Steps Down One Day After Trudeau’s Emergency Order”
Canada Now Treating Protesters As Terrorists
Sheer madness: The Canadian government would rather treat its own citizens as terrorists than simply rescind the pointless and ineffective Covid restrictions. I really can’t think of another word to encapsulate what’s happening right now than madness. We are seeing the mask come off of “Western liberal democracy.” We now can see that when pushContinue reading “Canada Now Treating Protesters As Terrorists”
How High Should Interest Rates Be Right Now?
We hear a lot today about how the Fed is “behind the curve” and is allowing inflation to get out of control, but how can we actually quantify this? Just how far “behind the curve” is the Fed right now? It’s difficult to say because ultimately the Fed’s decisions on interest rates are subjective andContinue reading “How High Should Interest Rates Be Right Now?”
The Canadian Endgame
Last night Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada, announced that he was doubling down and digging his heels in: Before he tweeted this out, there was speculation on social media that the reason he called this meeting was because he planned to resign. But this was little more than wishful thinking. He will never resign.Continue reading “The Canadian Endgame”
History of the British Monarchy, Part IV: Richard the Lionheart & the Third Crusade
In Part III, we discussed Richard’s strained relationship with his father. As the King’s health is failing, Richard secures his inheritance of the throne by force, fearful that the King will name Richard’s younger brother, John, heir. Henry II dies on July 6, 1189 and Richard is officially crowned September 3. Richard has a naturalContinue reading “History of the British Monarchy, Part IV: Richard the Lionheart & the Third Crusade”
CDC Study: Vaccinated 133x More Likely to Develop Myocarditis Than Unvaxxed
Wow: New study: 133x risk of myocarditis after COVID vaccination Comparisons with myocarditis rates following infection now irrelevant as vaccination no longer prevents infection. A recent study published on January 25, 2022, on JAMA Network, has shown that the risk of myocarditis following mRNA COVID vaccination is around 133 times greater than the background riskContinue reading “CDC Study: Vaccinated 133x More Likely to Develop Myocarditis Than Unvaxxed”
The Stock Market is About to Experience a “Death Cross”
Helene Meisler pointed this out today: The “death cross” is when, on the daily candlestick chart, the 50-day moving average (DMA) line dips below the 200-day moving average. It is generally an indication of a significant change in direction in the markets, and always precedes massive collapses in stock prices. For instance, before the marketContinue reading “The Stock Market is About to Experience a “Death Cross””
Things Are Not Looking Good for the US Economy Right Now
Time for some fire and brimstone. First up, University of Michigan’s Consumer Sentiment chart, which has dropped down to 2008 Global Financial Crisis levels: Inflation and unaffordable housing probably has a lot to do with this. This is a gauge of the “real economy,” and the the real economy is in bad shape right now.Continue reading “Things Are Not Looking Good for the US Economy Right Now”
Huge Protests Against Covid Restrictions in Australian Capital Canberra
Massive turnout: The Truckers in Canada have inspired the world to rise up. There is no putting this genie back in the bottle.

History of the British Monarchy, Part III: King Henry II & The Rise of the Plantagenets
Link to Part II here. Stephen of Blois (“blue-uh“) was only the nephew of King Henry I, but he was treated like a son to the King because Stephen’s parents–the King’s siblings–had died young. However, before he died, King Henry I proclaimed his daughter, Matilda, heir to the throne. Technically, Matilda was the rightful heirContinue reading “History of the British Monarchy, Part III: King Henry II & The Rise of the Plantagenets”
Canada Prepares to Crush the Trucker Protests as Trudeau’s Credibility Collapses
Fidel Castro’s bastard effeminate son is laying down the law: He is threatening the Truckers’ livelihoods and promising to slap them all with felonies that make it impossible for them to enter the US. And then at the end he says, “We’ve heard you. It’s time to go home now.” This fucking guy. Your concernsContinue reading “Canada Prepares to Crush the Trucker Protests as Trudeau’s Credibility Collapses”
Any Republican Who Doesn’t Run on an Explicitly Anti-Mask, Anti-Mandate Platform Deserves to Lose
This is the golden opportunity for the Republican Party. They have the chance right now to make the 2022 midterm elections a referendum on the Democrats’ mask mandates and all the Covid Bullshit. Make the distinction clear: if you are against mandatory masking, if you don’t want your kids to be forced to wear masks,Continue reading “Any Republican Who Doesn’t Run on an Explicitly Anti-Mask, Anti-Mandate Platform Deserves to Lose”
Mask Mandates For Children Are Evil
Look at how happy these kids are when they’re told they no longer have to wear masks: I don’t even have to say it. It is abundantly obvious from their reaction. But I will anyway: Masks are torture. Democrats have been torturing these poor kids for 2 years. If you want kids masked, you areContinue reading “Mask Mandates For Children Are Evil”
Japan’s Prime Minister Admits Country Has Been Overstating GDP Figures For Years
This story is from December but I completely missed it. It’s highly relevant to us in America, though, and I’ll explain why shortly. Via Bloomberg Markets: Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida apologized for the government’s mishandling of economic data after media reports said it overstated construction order figures, a key numbers set used to calculateContinue reading “Japan’s Prime Minister Admits Country Has Been Overstating GDP Figures For Years”
Tucker Highlights the Freedom Convoy’s Blockade of the US-Canada Border
If you have the time, this Tucker segment is worth a watch: He talks about how the Truckers have now shut down the Ambassador Bridge between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario. A whopping 25% of all trade between the US and Canada travels across this bridge, and the Truckers–who obviously know this–have shut the bridge down.Continue reading “Tucker Highlights the Freedom Convoy’s Blockade of the US-Canada Border”
Guess What? The CIA is Spying on Us All!
I’m sure you’re just shocked to hear this: The Central Intelligence Agency has for years been collecting in bulk, without a warrant, some kind of data that can affect Americans’ privacy, according to a newly declassified letter by two senators. The C.I.A. kept censored the nature of the data when it declassified the letter. AtContinue reading “Guess What? The CIA is Spying on Us All!”
How the Stock Market Performs Without QE, 2008-Present
To underscore my point that the rules of the game have changed and that we are now in uncharted waters when it comes to the Fed and the stock market, I think it might help to illustrate just how important the Fed’s accommodative monetary policy is for the stock market. There have been 6 stretchesContinue reading “How the Stock Market Performs Without QE, 2008-Present”
🚨 Inflation Rose to 7.5% in January per Latest Report

Pfizer Adds Warning to Earnings Report that “Unfavorable Clinical Safety Data” May Impact Profitability
Via ZeroHedge: Two weeks ago, the FDA begged a Texas judge to delay production on the first monthly batch of 55,000 pages of Covid-19 vaccine data submitted to the agency by Pfizer. Originally, the agency was set to produce just 500 pages-per-month. Now, Pfizer – which just forecast $54 billion in Covid-related sales in 2022, appears toContinue reading “Pfizer Adds Warning to Earnings Report that “Unfavorable Clinical Safety Data” May Impact Profitability”
Pentagon: “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Are Necessities in US Military”
Press X to doubt: We now have the military along with all other institutions in American society sacrificing performance and effectiveness in favor of “diversity, equity and inclusion.” How does this end well for us?

You really have toContinue reading “Pentagon: “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Are Necessities in US Military””
🚨 DHS: US Trucker Protest Could Begin Super Bowl Sunday
Can you imagine? The Department of Homeland Security is warning law enforcement and public safety officials in the United States that a prolonged trucker convoy protesting vaccine mandates could begin on Feb. 13, when the Super Bowl is played in Los Angeles. The warning of a trucker protest similar to the one that has broughtContinue reading “🚨 DHS: US Trucker Protest Could Begin Super Bowl Sunday”
The US Economy is Not in Good Shape
There seems to be this narrative being forced out by the Brandon administration and their accomplices in the corporate media that the economy is “booming” and going gangbusters. They back it up with data that shows GDP surging and wages increasing, as well as generally strong earnings reports from public companies (Facebook, Netflix and PayPalContinue reading “The US Economy is Not in Good Shape”
Moderna: We’re Creating an mRNA Injection for Heart Failure & Cardiovascular Disease!
Wonder how long this has been in the works: It’s almost as if the whole entire business model of Big Pharma is to sell you poison and then sell you the cure! Actually, not even the “cure,” because cures are usually one-and-done. They sell “treatments,” which you have to take for the rest of yourContinue reading “Moderna: We’re Creating an mRNA Injection for Heart Failure & Cardiovascular Disease!”
EcoHealth Whistleblower Andrew Huff Sends Letter to Senators Claiming EcoHealth “Funded the Development of SARS-CoV-2”
Here is the letter he sent to US Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS): Hopefully this is readable. The most important bits are highlighted. What remains to be seen is if Roger Wicker invites Huff to come testify before the Senate committee. Unfortunately, it seems like a lot of politicians out there don’t want the origins ofContinue reading “EcoHealth Whistleblower Andrew Huff Sends Letter to Senators Claiming EcoHealth “Funded the Development of SARS-CoV-2””
Ottawa City Councilwoman Says Trucker Protests are “Treason”
This is a new subspecies of Karen known as the “Diane.” “Dianes” are very similar to Karens, but typically older on average: I’m at the point now where I no longer get upset or outraged when these people lie. I’m just accustomed to it now. And it doesn’t upset me because A., most people outContinue reading “Ottawa City Councilwoman Says Trucker Protests are “Treason””
The Atlantic: End All Pandemic Restrictions Immediately
Bout fuckin’ time: Open Everything: End COVID Restrictions – The Atlantic In March 2020, I wrote that America should “cancel everything” in response to the acute threat posed by COVID-19: Mass events should be postponed, companies should send employees home from the office, and schools should move classes online.

Affirmative Action is So Unpopular That 56% of *Californians* Rejected it Back in 2020
I know this is an old story from the 2020 election, but I missed it when it happened. There were… other matters occurring at the time.
