Greg Hunter, "Deep State Deception Tricks Us into Thinking They’re Winning"

"Deep State Deception Tricks Us
into Thinking They’re Winning"
By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com

"Clif High is an Internet data mining expert who has many well-documented correct forecasts. High uses something he calls “Predictive Linguistics” and computer programs to sort through billions of bits of information on the Internet to predict future trends and events. His latest correct forecast was made last month here on USAWatchdog when he said, “The FDA would not approve the Pfizer CV19 vaccine.” The FDA told the public it was approved, but it only approved a Pfizer vaccine called Comirnaty that Americans cannot get. Americans are still getting the “experimental” Pfizer version of the so- called vaccine, and Pfizer still has immunity from liability. It was classic bait and switch and a total deception of the public.

Clif High says, “Deception is their only weapon. They are employing technology to trick us. They employ bots through all the social media. They employ scripts in all mainstream media. They have farms of people paid by the CCP with rooms in China and people with 40 different cell phones in front of them with a computer that can feed all those different cell phones. This is how they establish the persona of large crowds of people that are supposedly agreeing with or putting out the mainstream media talking points or reinforcing those.”

So, is the country evenly split for and against the Biden Administration? High says, “No. I can find about 12% of the population that will repeat the talking points and about 6% of the population that will do it consistently on their own unbidden. 6% are in the category of loyalists. Of that 6%, maybe half are true believers. They are attempting to make you think it’s about 80% to 20% in favor of the Deep State.”

What’s the real sentiment in the country? High estimates, “80% of the people in the country are against all of this at a passionate level. The intensity of that 80% is ratcheting up.” High says this is why you are seeing no masks being worn at college football games. People have had enough. High says, “You are seeing this at multiple sporting events. This marker is being used to track the sentiment of people involved in Devolution.”

In short, large segments of the population will be waking up to all the lies and illusions that control their lives. High talks about the big die-off of people who are “fully vaccinated” and how it is them who will need to be quarantined so they do not harm the unvaccinated public. The biggest wakeup call will come soon from the economic system. High says, “These things are coming in chunks, and we are just about at the point where the chunk called the financial system will fall all apart. The big marker on that is going to be October 1, which is the end of the fiscal year for the federal government.”

High also talks about weapons from Afghanistan coming back home to the USA to arm Antifa and BLM courtesy of China. High thinks what he calls “normies” will be getting a big cold bucket of water in the face soon, and things will change forever in how the public perceives what is going on in America. High also talks about Australia and the atrocity that is coming that will make them go wild and fight for liberty. High talks about all the millions of people who have gotten the shots and will probably die. It’s going to be so bad that 2022 will be known as the year of the mass die-off. High also talks about how many more people will wake up to the fact that the “USA was attacked” and that “we have been in an ongoing war.” High also talk real numbers of people who have actually gotten the shots. It is way less than the official numbers are saying, but for those people, death is probably coming for them. Phony inflated vax numbers is one more deception at work, according to High, because “they are selling the death shot.” High says the only thing that explains what is going on with CV19 and the push for injections is the “Deep State global criminals” are “killing people on purpose to depopulate the planet.”

High gives data and analysis on deflation, gold, silver, Bitcoin, a new U.S. currency as early as January 2022, Ivermectin and vitamins for protection, new side effects for the vax, funeral homes burying record numbers of people than ever, and the Arizona audit and why it is so important to get it perfect.

This is just some of what is covered in this one hour and 13 min interview. In closing, High says, “This war is deception. They have no real power. They only have the power of controlling the mind through deception of words. They are deceivers. We have lived in a world of deceit where deceit has been rewarded by them. We have been inculcated into this world, and it’s changing. It is the most massive change in 2,780 years. It is the change of the ages into the age of knowing, and we will know.”

"Elite Deciders In a Fix"

"Elite Deciders In a Fix"
by Bill Bonner

YOUGHAL, IRELAND – "Our subject this week is freedom. “What is it worth?” is the question on the table. “Not much,” is the answer from most of America’s intelligentsia. The elite, that is. It maintains that freedom should not be allowed to get in the way of What It Wants Now.

It wanted the War in Afghanistan… and for 20 years, it hijacked the nation’s wealth to pay for it – $2.3 trillion worth, according to the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown University. It wanted the War on Poverty, the War on Drugs, the War on Terror, the Wall Street Bailout… then the COVID-19 Bailout. All of these were sold as “investments” that would give us a better future. What American citizen – however civic minded – would have willingly paid for these things? Very few.

And had they been good investments, they would have paid dividends. Instead, year after year, the money goes out the door and into the pockets of the elite… adding $27 trillion to the nation’s debt since 1980.

About the Elite…: And now, the elite is advertising even bigger “investments” – to change the planet’s climate… and bring equity (whatever that is) to all. But the elite is running into trouble. Inflation is on the upswing. It will have to bring that under control by raising rates and curtailing its big-borrowing, big-spending, big-printing plans. Can it turn around? Can it back off? We need to do more thinking about “the elite.”

Republican or Democrat… European or American… members of the elite go to the same schools. They live in the same areas. They owe their allegiance, first and foremost, to their caste. Members of the elite are, almost by definition, rich and powerful. And while the public is distracted by party politics – an empty, gaudy, and tawdry spectacle – it is this elite caste that rules. It controls the government, the media, the universities, the military, et al. Like cream, members of the elite have risen to the top. And now, corrupted by power and money… curdled, degenerate, and incompetent… they want to hold onto their privileges at all costs.

Dilemma: Our friend Merryn Somerset Webb wrote in the Financial Times recently that central bankers had better get their act together. Inflation is rising. They need to get it under control quickly, she warned, or it will soon be too late. But there’s a growing awareness of the fix they’ve gotten themselves into. “Inflate or Die,” is how the late, great financial writer, Richard Russell, described it in his Dow Theory Letters.

Last week, British industrialist Sir Andrew Cook wrote a letter to the FT editor, spelling out for readers why central banks can no longer control inflation: "If they raise interest rates to around 5 percent – which is needed to stamp out inflation – the economies collapse. If they stop printing money, there will be riots from those millions who are now dependent on state handouts."

At the top, the gamblers and grifters need more money-printing to keep their stocks and bonds from crashing… and to keep the feds flush with cash. At the bottom, people face eviction… unemployment… and destitution. In short, central bankers – working on behalf of the corrupt elite – have broken the economy. Now, they own it. And whichever way they go – more money-printing or less – will bring on disaster.

Freedom to Choose: Free people don’t “invest” their own, real money in unwinnable wars and jackass projects. They don’t bail out Wall Street. They don’t shut down a whole economy to fight a disease that poses a threat to relatively few. They don’t lend money to those who can’t afford to pay it back.

In theory, the freer the economy, the richer the people in it. They devote their entire energies to doing what they want… rather than to doing what others want them to do. After all, that is what freedom is all about. Choices always need to be made. The question is: Who makes them?

In a free economy, people make the choices for themselves. They eschew the bad bakeries and go to the good ones. They drop losing investments, and put their savings into ones that pay a real return. They bid and ask, in free markets, to determine real prices… which then guide producers and consumers to increased efficiency and great wealth.

Elite Deciders: Freedom made America rich and powerful. But then, its elite caste became the deciders. Instead of allowing the rough and tumble of real capitalism… it rigged the system to protect its own wealth, power, and privileges. Rather than let savers and borrowers decide on interest rates, for example, the Fed used its fake money to queer the market – with its key lending rate below the inflation rate for most of the last 12 years.

The artificially low rates, along with the fake money itself, skewed the whole economy from producing goods and services (real wealth!) to jigging up stock and bond markets, supporting zombie businesses, and funding the elite’s goofy “investments.” The result is so much debt – $86 trillion for the entire economy… not including the feds’ many unfunded obligations – that honest interest rates would quickly cause a painful and immediate reckoning. In a matter of hours, the elite would lose much of its wealth and power.

Freedom to Live: But if freedom is so important to an economy… what about the rest of life? Can free people beat the coronavirus? Or do they need to be forced to take the shot, whether they like it or not? Stay tuned…"

"How It Really Is"

"We are in the process of creating, in sum, what deserves to be called the idiot culture. Not an idiot subculture, which every society has bubbling beneath the surface and which can provide harmless fun; but the culture itself. For the first time in our history the weird and the stupid and the coarse are becoming our cultural norm, even our cultural ideal."

"Supply Shortages Skyrocket By 638% As 
Shipping Crisis Worsens & Supply Chains Dramatically Collapse"
by Epic Economist

"Some say records are to be broken, but when it comes to the global supply chains breaking records come with a very dark side. Only this year, supply chains were plagued by a myriad of disasters: the Suez Canal accident, interruptions caused by extreme weather, and most recently, port shutdowns drove by new virus outbreaks in Asian countries. Fresh data released by Resilinc, a global leader in the supply chain risk monitoring space, indicated that supply chain disruptions hit record-breaking levels in 2021, with the number of factory fires up by 150% only in the first half of the year. This marked the highest rate of factory fires ever reported.

The shocking increase is mostly attributed to gaps in regulatory and process execution, and also by a shortage of skilled warehouse workers. The data also exposes that disruptions caused by supply shortages skyrocketed by 638% just in the first half of 2021. In total, Resilinc already sent 251 supply shortage alerts this year, with this type of disruption ranked 6th in terms of most reported events. But shortages are the number one reason why business sales have been collapsing in recent months, and according to the report, almost half - or about 46.5% - of such disruptive events occurred in the United States in the first six months of 2021.

From January 1 to June 30, 2021, Resilinc issued staggering 5,425 alerts about supply chain disruptions across 39 event categories, with about 59% of them impactful enough to trigger prolonged interruptions that lasted for at least four weeks. Today, in the US, one of the main problems causing shortages is port congestion. There are still dozens of container ships waiting to undock in California ports. Industry experts say that it could take months for the backlog to be cleared, while inland logistics hubs are still crowded with containers that have yet to be loaded onto trucks to get to cargo ships and make their trip to their final destinations.

In addition to all that, a shortage of truck drivers is causing further bottlenecks at ports and inland rail hubs, as some warehouses are being forced to refuse delivery of new containers until backlogs could be reduced. All of this is severely aggravating the global container shortage, which consequently is pushing shipping prices for almost all trade routes to sky-highs. According to Xeneta, the average cost of shipping a container from China to the West Coast of the U.S. went from $1,794 last year to $11,594 this year. And those numbers represent an official average, but the truth is that new premium prices are negotiated on the spot, and some companies reported shipping rates of up to $33,000 from Shangai to Los Angeles this year. As a result, companies continue to struggle to ship their products overseas and to get their orders in time.

The imbalances on supply chains are threatening to derail the US economic rebound this quarter, as business activity and production have fallen 6.9 percentage points in August, new export orders dropped by more than five percentage points, and new orders faced a sizable decline, according to a report released by the Institute for Supply Management.

Moreover, shortages of materials such as plastics are pushing the price of a wide range of products to record-highs. "This started during the big freeze that hit Texas that disrupted the petrochemical industry along the Gulf Coast. It accounts for nearly 20% of the global ethylene production, and three-quarters of that production along the Gulf Coast was knocked out during the big freeze," explained Wolf Richter. "The materials produced by it go into pretty much everything. All kinds of consumer goods, from water bottles to automobiles, all kinds of packaging, and all kinds of industrial goods, such as PVC pipe that is used in new construction," the expert added.

All of this is happening at a time when consumer demand is being fueled by government stimulus, not just in the US but all around the world. The combination of artificially-fueled demand for goods and supply-chain problems is causing significant distortions in the global economy, and it is creating asset bubbles in the financial markets and threatening to trigger an inflationary spike like no other. The main problem is that as companies realized that they can charge more for the same products and consumers have been accepting those increases without a question, they will continue to get away with raising prices even after conditions improve across supply chains. That is how hyperinflation infiltrates global economies, and our future is going to be marked by it. On the other hand, wages won't similarly hyperinflate, which means we're headed to an era of economic deterioration while the price of everything continues to explode."

"Some spiral galaxies are seen nearly sideways. Most bright stars in spiral galaxies swirl around the center in a disk, and seen from the side, this disk can appear quite thin. Some spiral galaxies appear even thinner than NGC 3717, which is actually seen tilted just a bit. Spiral galaxies form disks because the original gas collided with itself and cooled as it fell inward. Planets may orbit in disks for similar reasons.
The featured image by the Hubble Space Telescope shows a light-colored central bulge composed of older stars beyond filaments of orbiting dark brown dust. NGC 3717 spans about 100,000 light years and lies about 60 million light years away toward the constellation of the Water Snake (Hydra)."

“Remember the sky that you were born under,
know each of the star’s stories.
Remember the moon, know who she is. I met her
in a bar once in Iowa City.
Remember the sun’s birth at dawn, that is the
strongest point of time. Remember sundown
and the giving away to night.
Remember your birth, how your mother struggled
to give you form and breath. You are evidence of
her life, and her mother’s, and hers.
Remember your father. He is your life also.
Remember the earth whose skin you are:
red earth, black earth, yellow earth, white earth
brown earth, we are earth.
Remember the plants, trees, animal life who all have their
tribes, their families, their histories, too. Talk to them,
listen to them. They are alive poems.
Remember the wind. Remember her voice. She knows the
origin of this universe. I heard her singing Kiowa war
dance songs at the corner of Fourth and Central once.
Remember that you are all people and that all people are you.
Remember that you are this universe and that this universe is you.
Remember that all is in motion, is growing, is you.
Remember that language comes from this.
Remember the dance that language is, that life is.

“How We Become Human”

Chet Raymo, “Half Sick Of Shadows”

“Half Sick Of Shadows”
by Chet Raymo

“Who is this woman? Her name is on the prow of her boat: The Lady of Shalott.  Yes, it’s Tennyson’s “Lady of Shalott,” from the poem of 1842, here illustrated by John William Waterhouse in 1888. By some unspecified curse this lovely maiden was confined to a tower…

“Willows whiten, aspens quiver,
Little breezes dusk and shiver
Through the wave that runs for ever
By the island in the river”

…near Camelot, where, forbidden to look out the window, she observed the world in a mirror and wove what she saw into a tapestry. So what is she doing in the boat, with her hand-stitched creation? One day, Sir Lancelot rode by her tower alone. She saw him in the mirror and – “half sick of shadows” – couldn’t resist turning to see him unreflected.

“His broad clear brow in sunlight glow’d;
On burnish’d hooves his war-horse trode;
From underneath his helmet flow’d
His coal-black curls as on he rode…”

The mirror cracked. She left her loom, descended from the tower, found a boat, inscribed her name on the prow, and…

“Lying, robed in snowy white
That loosely flew to left and right -
The leaves upon her falling light -
Thro’ the noises of the night”

…cast off to drift downstream to Camelot – and to Lancelot. But curses are not to be foiled.

“For ere she reach’d upon the tide
The first house by the water-side,
Singing in her song she died,
The Lady of Shalott.”

We are all of us in a way the Lady of Shalott, all of us who seek to create an image of the world, artists, poets, scientists. We perceive the world through the filter of our limited senses, our biologically evolved brains, our nurtured preconceptions. We weave our tapestries, knowing that our creations are a reflection removed from reality. Our “curse” is to be in love with the real, yet never able to embrace it except in the cold glass of conceptualization. Our legacy? To be found in a boat lodged among the reeds, our tapestry draped across the thwart, with Camelot yet somewhere further down the stream, glistening, beckoning, inescapably out of reach. But, ah, there’s that gorgeous tapestry.

There is another curse, self made, and that is to mistake the mirrorworld for the world outside the window, to fail to recognize the contingency of our conceptualizations, to forego an honest seeking for the falsely found, and – most ominously – to want to impose our own mirrorworld on others.”

"How Many Millions Will the Covid Cult 
Kill Before People Wake Up?"
- Bob Moriarty


"People in a cult don’t know they’re in a cult. But everyone else can tell." 
- Oliver Markus Malloy

"Results of the study: COVID-19 vaccines designed to elicit neutralizing antibodies may sensitize vaccine recipients to more severe disease than if they were not vaccinated. We are in the midst of the largest assault on liberty in the history of the world. Twenty months ago most people in the world were free to travel without restriction, interact with others without government controls and were about as free as any time in history. Now in response to a fake pandemic you cannot go to a restaurant in France without hearing, “Papiere, bitte” and should you not immediately produce the required documentation you can be fined and even sent to prison. No doubt that will come to the US very soon.

While it is popular to call this a “pandemic” that is not correct. This is not the Black Death or even the Spanish Flu. All governments as far as I can see have been lying about just how dangerous it really is from the very beginning. The “Experts” were predicting mass deaths. They were off by at least ten fold and never admitted just how wrong they were. For all purposes many governments pretty much shut down their economies putting billions of people into economic peril.

Let me state one more time just so you get it. This is nothing more than a bad-f***ing flu. Those most at risk were those over eighty, overweight, black and Vitamin D deficient. You can’t do much about your age except check out should you wish. Diets are hard to stick to and just like your sex; you are stuck with the color you were born with.

But how many governments bothered telling their citizens, “If you take Vitamin D and a Zinc supplement to get it into the cells you may well prevent what is nothing more than a bad flu?” And for the sheep feeling as if they need to correct me on the real danger of the flu you need to whine to Doctor Fauci and the NIH. It was their bright idea to fund “gain of function” research at the Wuhan lab and then to lie to Congress to cover it up.

The probability is very high that in fact the Wuhan Flu was in fact an American Bio-terror weapon aimed at China and Iran. Most people, I suspect, will still recall that China was hit first and hardest but Iran was right behind them. Ron Unz has written extensively and I believe convincingly about the probability of this being nothing less than a CIA bright idea.

There is a simple reason I call this a bad flu. We know how to prevent it and governments won’t talk about it. We know two inexpensive ways to cure it. The CDC, of course, has overstated the deaths by 1500%. Candidly they admit that only 6% of the recorded deaths were FROM Covid with the remaining 94% WITH Covid. And the 94% with Covid is also total bullshit as even the CDC now admits the PCR test will show a false positive for any recent prior cold or flu. Even Fauci, the hopeless liar, admits the cycle rate was set far too high. So all of the numbers you think you understand for number of deaths and number of cases, throw them out the window. You were lied to at every step of the way.

A 22-week preemie dying is not a Covid death. A heart attack is not a Covid death, a stroke is not a Covid death, and a bullet into the brain between the running lights is not a Covid death. In the US the government paid hospitals extra money to call deaths “Covid.” According to the CDC the 94% “WITH” Covid numbers also shared 2.6 comorbidities. That means they were dying of either or both of 2.6 other serious medical issues. When you remove all the bullshit and lying, it was just another year with a bad flu.

All of the treatment given patients was designed from maximum profit to the medical profession and least to the welfare of the patients. I can accept that in the first few months of the “Covid Cult” that no one knew how to treat those ailing. But it wasn’t long before real doctors were experimenting with novel treatments.

A French doctor tried treating his patients with a drug that has been around for sixty-five years called by its initials HCQ. Since Orange Man said good things about it, Fauci and the Ministry of Truth attacked HCQ at once. But no doubt by pure coincidence, the French had allowed sale of HCQ over the counter until January 1, 2020. Does it work to prevent death from Covid? Ask Tanzania with 68 million people who pretty much take a $.35 pill of HCQ once a week to prevent malaria. Tanzania has had 50 deaths from Covid. Total. Because of HCQ but should you mention it in an interview you will be deplatformed by Apple, Google, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter. They are looking out for your interests no doubt.

And Fauci simply forgot or failed to mention that he coauthored a medical paper in 2005 praising HCQ as an anti-viral agent. How amazing, he was lying about that too. Then later last year one of the few remaining real doctors pointed out that he had great success treating patients with Ivermectin. There have been 39 different studies on Ivermectin all of whom concluded the drug properly prescribed could prevent up to 75% of deaths. An Israeli doctor concluded patients could be treated for less than $1 a day with the drug. If you mention Ivermectin in an interview, the Ministry of Truth will promptly silence you. You are not allowed to know that there are simple and cheap solutions to a bad flu.

The French somehow knew what the future would bring. The posters now found in every French eatery demanding “Papiere, bitte” were designed before the first Covid patient was discovered in France. That was in January of 2020 with no French patients to be seen yet. But they also called the mechanism a “Covid” Passport months before Covid was named. It must have been magic, I suppose. Unless you understand this whole Covid Cult bullshit was preplanned.

There is so much data today showing that this has been long since planned by Bill Gates and Fauci. Patents were filed twenty years ago on gain of function changes to various viruses. Gates even held a planning secession, convention in the fall of 2019. What marvelous timing. Gates has been caught in a video smirking as he bragged about making a twenty-fold return on his investment in “vaccines.” Does that asshole really need more money that he would kill people to get it?

Alas, "the best laid schemes o' mice an' men/Gang aft a-gley." I’ve written about ten articles about the virus and talked in interviews about what we knew at the time and what I surmised. I got it far more right than anyone else on the outside. Fourteen months ago I said they would never have a “vaccine” because like all viruses, they mutate. Now we are being told that people who have not had the shot can somehow magically make the virus more dangerous. Those dumb enough to believe that nonsense have obviously not looked at a chart of the new cases being identical to that of people taking the shot. In other words as many doctors have suggested in the past, having the experimental gene therapy shot gives you a greater chance of catching the virus in the future.

In short while there are many serious studies showing that both HCQ and Ivermectin can cure Covid, the “vaccine” not only doesn’t prevent the disease, it makes it more likely and probably more deadly. It appears to me that governments such as that of France, New Zealand and Australia and some states in the US are panicking because the number of deaths from the shot is skyrocketing and may soon go curvilinear as the long-term effects of ADE kick in.

Literally ADE means the body starts to attack itself. One study in Israel of pregnant women showed that 82% of the women given the shot in the 1st and 2nd Trimester of pregnancy suffered miscarriages. Should that percentage continue, it means we are headed for a giant depopulation and are going to enter the Dark Ages 2.0.

Here’s what I think now. This was a deliberate plan on the part of the Elites to force the Great Reset. Once you understand that simple fact, you know what the future is going to be. I understand the rich and the elite. I went through high school in Fort Worth and we had all the rich kids whose fathers had made their fortune in the East Texas oil fields. The rich kids knew they were smarter than the rest of us because their families were rich. The elite are the same. They believe having lots of dollars means you also have lots of sense.

Alas, it doesn’t work that way. Many fortunes are as much an accident as anything else. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates were accidents where they got involved in computers just when the need arose for better operating systems. Steve Jobs stiffed Steve Wozniak out of his half of payment from Nolan Bushnell and followed up by refusing to take a paternity test when his girlfriend got pregnant with his daughter Lisa. Apple was a great computer company run by a sociopath. Bill Gates signed a deal licensing DOS to IBM when he didn’t own it. Then turned around and paid $75,000 to the guy who did own it. Gates and his foundation have been booted from both India and Africa after peddling vaccines that did more harm than good. Sound familiar?

The elite got into power by lying, stealing and cheating. The brilliant military mind of George Bush Junior came up with the great idea of invading Afghanistan even though the country had nothing to do with 911 and then followed up with an invasion of Iraq who also had nothing to do with 911. The WSJ, NYT and WP all fully supported the dumbest military moves in American history that have led to a complete financial and moral bankruptcy of the US. Bush’s only claim to fame was that he was a drunk and a crack head until he was forty and a draft dodger.

Then Obama supported the same insane wars that had not a chance of having a good ending for the US. His claim to fame was that he was the Pusher Man back in high school and cast no shadow until the Democrats got him into office. His latest role is power behind the throne for a president who barely remembers his own name.

Trump was another draft dodger and a sock puppet for the Zionist lobby. Whatever the Neocon war criminals wanted, he did. He lied about where and when he made his fortune. Hell, he lied about everything, I’m not sure he ever told the truth about anything.

Then we had the election of 2020 that was easily the most corrupt in US history. The MSM still pretends Biden won the election even though there is a serious question of does he even still understand he is president. Any questions about his qualifications died in the Graveyard of Empires.

These people are all sociopaths and liars. They will do anything for more power. They think it’s time that they create a worldwide empire where they control everything and everyone. The whole Covid Cult bullshit is about their control of people.

The French began by refusing access to any dining, or bars, and movie theaters or any sporting events as well as malls if their citizens could not produce proof of “vaccination.” What the “vaccinated” don’t understand is that if those not “vaccinated” can be refused access to perfectly normal activities, so can they. It turns government into a totalitarian dictatorship. All in the name of fighting a bad flu.

But everything the governments have said from the gitgo was a lie. Masks didn’t prevent the flu, social distancing didn’t prevent the flu, lockdowns didn’t prevent the flu, and worst of all, not only does the “vaccine” not prevent or cure the flu, it makes it worse.

Pick up any history book and in it will be contained one story after another of how the elites f***ed up the world. They are doing it again. They not only talk just to each other, they listen only to each other. If perfectly ordinary citizens who are concerned with their families, their health, their freedom and their countries don’t stand up soon all freedom will be extinguished.

A few souls are starting to stand up and speak out. Support them. I read that the truckers in Australia are going to shut down the country. It’s a start. Now if some majors and colonels in our own Armed Forces would reread their oath of office and grow some balls we could turn this fur ball into a rebirth of freedom and independence.

The “vaccine” doesn’t work. It has already killed tens of thousands of people around the world. It is making the flu worse. How many millions are going to have to die in the name of a Great Reset before people understand owning nothing and owing nothing is the definition of a slave."

"Screw Your Freedom"

"Screw Your Freedom"
by Bill Bonner

"Screw your freedom."
– Arnold “The Terminator” Schwarzenegger

YOUGHAL, IRELAND – "This week, we are looking at some big dots… ruminating, really, about freedom and how it is connected to prosperity… vaccinations… the First Amendment… truth. What good is freedom, anyway? In our economy? In our lives? Here at the Diary, we don’t particularly care about freedom. We just don’t like anyone telling us what to do. Especially when the person telling us what to do is an idiot.

Of course, whenever someone tells us what to do, it’s a good bet that he is an idiot. Heck, half of the world’s people have an I.Q. below average. The other half are morons. Throw a rock through a Capitol Building window and you’re bound to hit one of them. But it is a certain kind of moron who thinks he has the inside story on God’s Ultimate, Absolute, and Complete Truth (GUACT).

Getting vaccinated has become – like wearing a face mask – a sign of secular piety and obedience. The vaccinated person shows his “health pass” proudly, like a war hero with his medals. The medals prove that he has done the Right Thing.

Irresponsible and Immoral: By contrast, the unvaccinated are treated like cowards… shirkers… lepers. They are unclean… irresponsible… immoral. Pope Francis says so: "I believe that morally everyone must take the vaccine. It is the moral choice because it is about your life but also the lives of others."

Others – including the American Civil Liberties Union – believe there should be no choice at all. They see “no civil liberties problem with requiring COVID-19 vaccines in most circumstances:” "In fact, far from compromising civil liberties, vaccine mandates actually further civil liberties. They protect the most vulnerable among us, including people with disabilities and fragile immune systems, children too young to be vaccinated, and communities of color hit hard by the disease. […]"

COVID-19 vaccine mandates – much like mask mandates – are public health measures necessary to protect people from severe illness and death. Yes, the people who gave us the war in Afghanistan, the war on poverty, the war on drugs, and the Wall Street bailout – the great and the good, the elite, the media, the professoriat, the medical/pharmaceutical complex – all now insist that we get vaccinated.

But is forced vaccination really “necessary,” as the ACLU claims? Colleague Jim Rickards spells it out: "Among all individuals, vaccinated and unvaccinated, the global survival rate is 99.2%. Among those under 70, the survival rate is 99.97%. The survival rate for children is 99.995%."

And if the vaccines are so effective, couldn’t anyone who is worried about getting COVID-19 protect himself by getting vaccinated? Why make a federal case out of it? Apparently, the ACLU has reconsidered its mission. It used to be dedicated to protecting Americans’ liberties. Now, it is protecting their health. “Protecting our health and safety” is now the desideratum of the entire nation. Nothing else seems to matter. “Screw your freedom,” says former governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Dangerous Behavior: But wait… We still drive our cars. We climb dangerous mountains. We make whoopee with people who may have a communicable disease. We visit Chicago on a weekend. And we buy cryptos! Hey… you could get hurt doing those things. What gives?

All we have is questions. Why take chances…? When you’ve got real geniuses who know God’s Ultimate, Absolute, and Complete Truth, who needs the freedom to discover it for himself? Who needs to wander into sin when the saintly path is so clearly marked? Who cannot know the truth about vaccines, when the major media have excised all “misinformation” on the subject?

And why do we let markets set interest rates… employment levels… wages… or consumer prices – when the Federal Reserve, bless its craven little heart, knows exactly what they should be? Shouldn’t we inoculate ourselves against the rough and tumble, the booms and busts, the ups and downs… of all of life?

Good News; Bad News: On Friday, just before the Labor Day weekend, the feds released the latest numbers. For the working man, there was bad news and good news. CNBC reports: "Job creation for August was a huge disappointment, with the economy adding just 235,000 positions, the Labor Department reported Friday. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for 720,000 new hires."

New hires fell from 1.1 million the previous month. But wages rose. Alas, they did not rise enough to keep up with inflation. The 4.3% overall annual wage gain was still below the latest 5.4% inflation reading. At least those people laboring in the Leisure and Hospitality sector got a real raise. Colleague David Stockman tells us their weekly wages rose at a 12% annual rate – the fastest in 52 years.

But on Monday came more bad news for some people. Those federal unemployment “toppers” came to an end. The Associated Press has the latest: "Two critical programs expired on Monday. One provided jobless aid to self-employed and gig workers and another provided benefits to those who have been unemployed more than six months. Further, the Biden administration’s $300 weekly supplemental unemployment benefit also ran out on Monday. It’s estimated that roughly 8.9 million Americans will lose all or some of these benefits. The amount of money injected by the federal government into jobless benefits since the pandemic began is nothing short of astronomical."

Misery and Heartbreak: Oh my…This is what free-ish markets bring us, isn’t it? Good news and bad news. Wealth and profits… misery and heartbreak. Maybe that is what freedom gives us in the rest of life, too – flimflam… fantasy… and a brief glimpse of truth. Stay tuned."

"The Game in Review"

"The Game in Review"
by Jim Kunstler

"The upcoming twentieth anniversary of 9/11 is soon upon us and the horrifying videos are back in your face. Whatever way the twin towers came down - and, personally, I think those airplanes got’er done (I vehemently disagree - CP) - the demolition provides a potent image for what is happening now: smoke billows out of the top floors, rather like a person with his hair on fire… and then each giant structure slumps into total collapse, sending shock-waves of toxic dust through the desecrated dwelling place of civilization, the city. That’s us in metaphor… like I said: now.

America’s hair is on fire. A chimeric lab virus apparently funded by our own government has been on-the-loose since January 2020. Supposedly, that is. It’s a little hard to tell because, especially in the early going, a lot of very old and unwell people died - as the very old and unwell do - and a Covid-19 tag was slapped on their death certificates, and that primed the hysteria pump that is still pumping away heroically. A Covid-19 virus may indeed be running through the population, but 98.8 percent do not die from it and, as Covid-19 came on, the usual seasonal flu apparently went on sabbatical. Go figure.

The ignited hysteria was reinforced by a PCR test routine that could produce Covid-19 “cases” on-demand, and still does - even though the government had to admit that the test was unreliable and ordered it discontinued (effective, wait for it, December 2021… really?). Meanwhile, the cases keep coming… as ascertained by what means exactly? PCR tests, still? Or what?

About twenty minutes after the virus came on the scene, a vaccine magically materialized in the pharma labs. And after a completely half-assed testing routine, it was commissioned with an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), which permitted a wholesale vax-up of the whole population, and provided legal immunity from lawsuits for the pharma companies involved. The public greeted it with a grateful awe usually reserved for religious visitations. Treatment protocols with existing drugs were bad-mouthed and then officially suppressed. They had to be - and still have to be - to maintain that EUA, because the vaxes are not approved by the FDA (despite a recent FDA psy-op to fake-out the public otherwise).

Meanwhile, adverse reactions to the vaxes are literally off-the-charts (the decades-long vaccine safety charts, that is) and those numbers have been likewise suppressed. There are also plenty of reasons to suppose the vaxes create stealth vascular damage to multiple organs that could lead to death over a few years’ time. The prudent have taken note. The prudent are now in for getting cancelled out of daily life for their prudence. Most of these people are onto the game that is being played on them. They must be punished.

The government is desperate to keep the Covid-19 story going and keeps squirting lighter fluid on America’s flaming head. It’s not working so well. The government has lost its mojo, as personified by the mojo-deficient president that the backstage minions of an obscure “power elite” finagled into office by means soon to be publicly revealed. A great wave of fear curdles the spinal fluxes of Western Civ as its component nation-states battle to control their restive populations with an epic turn toward lawless, tyrannical coercion.

But, according to the first principle of the long emergency, governments cannot maintain control in this evolving dynamic. They sink into impotence, authority loses its commanding shimmer, it founders and flounders and flails at the citizenry, and it ultimately loses control of its… precious… narrative. Thus, the hair-on-fire phase of the melodrama segues into implosion, the collapse phase. That would be the collapse of the economic armature of the society that the government is vested to manage, and has managed so poorly.

Those paying attention could see the first tremors of financial collapse emanating from the shuddering “re-po” markets in the late summer of 2019 - coincidentally, just months before the Covid-19 virus made its brassy entrance on-stage. The re-po market is a swap-meet for extremely short-term (overnight) collateralized re-purchase contracts among “systemically important” Too-Big-To-Fail banks. They use the “money” (ha!) to “leverage” their games in the shadowland of “innovative” investing. Don’t feel bad if you can’t follow any of that. It’s a hyper-complex mega-swindle meant to bamboozle the public.

Anyway, in 2019 interest rates in the re-po market shot up suddenly from 2 percent to 10.5 percent, which would have left a smoldering crater there and turned the global banking system into the biggest ashtray in human history. The Federal Reserve stuffed “money” into its patron banks like straw into so many scarecrows. But, really, the re-po event was just a manifestation of the unresolved perversions that ignited the “Great Financial Crisis” of 2008. The whole banking system had a) disconnected from the gruesome climacteric of industrial activity, and b) was drowning in debt created to animate the appearance of financial life in the system.

Apparently, the “solution” arrived at by those obscure power elites was to lock down the retail economy of common everyman money transactions in small businesses and direct the remaining “money” to save the phony economy of elite banking hokey-pokey. The lockdowns thus kept “money” flowing into the phony-baloney stock and bond markets, and kept the tremendously profitable games going in the shadowland of derivatives and other transactional dreck. But the main stack of the building - remember, we started with the buildings - was crumbling in slow-motion.

And here we are… in the season of collapse… when things traditionally fall apart… when zombies, ghouls, and monsters stalk the earth. The catch is: we-the-people are cast in the role of those zombies, et cetera. Yes, Oscar Wilde was right when he quipped that “life imitates art.” Twenty years of zombie movies have left us perfectly positioned to enter the new economy of the walking dead. That’s us. No more middle class for you, America! No more paychecks. No more blue light specials. No more auto loans. No more McHouses. And pretty soon, maybe, no more food even. What then? How about: Oh, just go die….

That seems to be the next chapter, if you let it be, for instance, if you let them vax you up. But you can actually choose to scramble and adapt to what’s coming: which is human life at a lower pitch… what I like to call a World Made by Hand. In that world, it is you who survive and the governments, the banks, and the power elites who do not. You can already begin to see it happen. Move toward it."

"A September Stock Market Crash Is On The Horizon: Brace For A Catastrophic Bubble Burst"

Full screen recommended.
"A September Stock Market Crash Is On The Horizon: 
Brace For A Catastrophic Bubble Burst"
by Epic Economist

"Are you ready for the greatest financial disaster of our generation? Several key indicators that have accurately predicted previous stock market crashes are now signaling that financial markets and the economy are about to face a massive crisis -- and one of the most important gauges is flashing red for the first time in decades. Recent data released by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) reveals that the median sales price for houses sold across the country in the second quarter of 2021 was $374,900, the highest figure ever recorded, and 4.51 percent higher than the figures seen during the final quarter of 2020. About one year ago, the median price for a home was $322,600, which is to say that housing prices skyrocketed by a whopping $52,300 in only 12 months, marking a 16 percent increase. The HUD report highlighted that the last time housing prices surged by 16 percent in a single year was in 1987, 34 years ago. What does this have to do with the stock market? Well, when housing prices are rising this aggressively in such a short time span, it's typically a sign of severe distortions in the financial system, meaning that a stock market crash and an economic recession are about to unfold.

Given that the current financial bubble includes everything - from stocks to bonds to housing - what happens in one market can have a direct impact on the other, and the imbalances seen in the housing market are threatening to push the stock market to the brink of a major collapse. Never before in history the Fed and the national government have created such a staggering amount of money in such a short period. Needless to say, these reckless policies have sparked dramatic economic distortions across a series of important industries. Nothing else can explain why housing prices increased to the highest level in over three decades -- or why stock markets recorded the largest gains ever and multinational corporations reported extraordinary profits amidst one of the bleakest economic scenarios of modern times. All of this started to occur just as the economy faced mass business shutdowns that led to millions of job losses.

September is historically known as the cruelest month for Wall Street and many investment experts have been warning that a stock market crash is likely to occur this month. Autumn is a traditionally rough season for investors: the 1929 stock market crash, Black Monday 1987, and the Lehman Brothers meltdown in 2008 all happened in September or October. As the managing director of fund platform Bestinvest, Jason Hollands recently outlined in an interview with CNBC history suggests we should all be very worried about what's coming next. “September spells danger for investors, as it is a month with a reputation for volatile markets. This is more than a myth,” he said. The financial expert warned that the current rally cannot last for much longer.

At this point, all evidence is signaling that a stock market crash of epic proportions could occur at any moment. And one extremely concerning market indicator just jumped to its highest level ever recorded, suggesting stocks are about to face a steep downfall given that the market already reached its peak. The "Buffett" indicator, named after the legendary investor Warren Buffett, has climbed to unprecedented levels, which means stocks are vastly overpriced and a crash is now looming on the horizon. About a week ago, the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index closed at nearly $46.69 trillion and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq indexes ended hit new record highs. From then on, stocks started to plummet. And, on the other hand, the latest estimate for second-quarter GDP is $22.72 trillion, which puts the Buffett indicator at 205%. According to the famed investor and Berkshire Hathaway CEO, when the indicator hit a record high during the dot-com bubble, it should have been a "very strong warning signal" of an imminent crash.

Right now, investors should be looking out for the catalyst that could trigger the crash. Otherwise, they may be left empty-handed before they have an opportunity to run for the exits. In the meantime, conditions in both financial markets and the economy continue to deteriorate because rather than returning to fiscal sanity, the current administration and the Fed continue to do everything in their power to spend trillions of dollars more on new unnecessary government programs, projects, and stimulus packages. Right now, not only the U.S. economy is treading on extremely dangerous ground, but housing, stock, and bond markets are also on the verge of a financial catastrophe. It's time for Americans to prepare for the worst because things are changing extremely fast."

Brace for impact, folks, here it comes, very rapidly, 
and we're out of time... God help us.

"A Look to the Heavens"

"To some, it looks like a giant chicken running across the sky. To others, it looks like a gaseous nebula where star formation takes place. Cataloged as IC 2944, the Running Chicken Nebula spans about 100 light years and lies about 6,000 light years away toward the constellation of the Centaur (Centaurus).
The featured image, shown in scientifically assigned colors, was captured recently in a 12-hour exposure. The star cluster Collinder 249 is visible embedded in the nebula's glowing gas. Although difficult to discern here, several dark molecular clouds with distinct shapes can be found inside the nebula."

“Life, Explained To You”

“Life, Explained To You”
Author Unknown

“On the first day God created the dog. God said, “Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. I will give you a life span of twenty years.” The dog said, “That’s too long to be barking. Give me ten years and I’ll give you back the other ten.” So God agreed. 

On the second day God created the monkey. God said, “Entertain people, do monkey tricks and make them laugh. I’ll give you a twenty-year life span.” The monkey said, “Monkey tricks for twenty years? I don’t think so. Dog gave you back ten, so that’s what I’ll do too, okay?” And God agreed. 

On the third day God created the cow. “You must go to the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves, and give milk to support the farmer. I will give you a life span of sixty years.” The cow said, “That’s kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. Let me have twenty and I’ll give back the other forty.” And God agreed again. 

On the fourth day God created man. God said, “Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. I’ll give you twenty years.” Man said, “What? Only twenty years? Tell you what, I’ll take my twenty, and the forty the cow gave back, and the ten the monkey gave back, and the ten the dog gave back, that makes eighty, okay?” “Okay,” said God, “You’ve got a deal.” 

So that is why the first twenty years we eat, sleep, play, and enjoy ourselves; the next forty years we slave in the sun to support our family; the next ten years we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren; and the last ten years we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone.”
