‘Transition’ to a New World Order Is Beyond Most in the West

The new era marks the end to ‘old politics’: The Red vs Blue; Right vs Left labels lose relevance.

Even the need for transition – just to be clear – has only just begun to be recognised in the U.S.

For the European leadership however, and for the beneficiaries of financialisation who haughtily lament Trump’s ‘storm’ unwisely unleashed on the world, his base economic theses are ridiculed as bizarre notions completely divorced from economic ‘reality’.

That is completely untrue.

For, as Greek Econo...

Trump Proposes Tax-Increases on Poor to Fund Tax-Cuts on Rich

On May 17th, MSNBC, a Democratic Party propaganda-site, issued an “opinion” article that was loaded with links to its sources, including Republicans, and the article honestly represented what it reported, and its sources were entirely credible, so that that article actually constituted news, and not only this, but it is very important news for every American: Donald Trump’s proposed tax-legislation would, if passed into law, include front-end-loaded (short-term) tax-cuts for the poor, and back-e...

The Trade Truce Won’t Save the Dollar

On Thursday’s episode of The Peter Schiff Show, Peter unpacks the recent stock market rally that followed news of a temporary truce in the US-China trade war. He warns that investors are misreading the situation by ignoring deeper threats to the economy, such as the ongoing global move away from the US dollar and misguided government subsidies that risk driving personal debt even higher.

Peter opens the show with a skeptical look at the so-called win for the Trump administration in its standoff...

The United States of America, as We Have Known it, Has Been Destroyed by the US Supreme Court

“The Supreme Court has just ruled that the worst murderers, drug dealers, gang members, and even those who are mentally insane, who came into our Country illegally, are not allowed to be forced out without going through a long, protracted, and expensive Legal Process, one that will take, possibly, many years for each person, and one that will allow these people to commit many crimes before they even see the inside of a Courthouse. The result of this decision will let more CRIMINALS pour into our...

Who Was True Executive of Biden Admin?

A segment of former President Joe Biden’s October 2023 interview with special counsel Robert Hur was just released.

As ZeroHedge pointed out:

Biden couldn’t remember details such as when his son Beau died, when he left office as vice president, what year Donald Trump was elected, and why he had classified documents in his possession that he shouldn’t have had.

According to Axios, which released the recording, Biden frequently slurred words or muttered, and “appears to validate Hur’s assertion t...

The Enduring Power of Nazi Derangement Syndrome

The National Socialist German Workers Party had a rather short life span, existing from 1920-1945. With that “Socialist” word in there, you’d think that it designated some kind of far Left, Bolshevik inspired movement. But from the very beginning, the Nazis- as they came to be known to the world- were depicted as extremely right-wing.

There seems to be no credible evidence that the National Socialists ever called themselves Nazis, and present day “extremists” contend that it was a derogatory ter...

MI5’s Fake Terror Plots

Back in the “War on Terror” days, the UK security services fabricated multiple fake terror plots. There was, for example, the 2009 Easter Bomb Plot in Manchester, taking entire front pages of newspapers. Gordon Brown as PM hyped it as a “very big terror plot”. It was a total fabrication, nobody was convicted and it eventually emerged that the trumpeted “bomb-making ingredient” the police confiscated from kitchens was sugar – in normal quantities.

The Great Ricin Plot in in 2003 was again kitchen...

The Istanbul Kabuki – Decoded

The endgame is clear: the US losing the entire Eurasian land mass. Ukraine, under these immense geopolitical imperatives, is only a sovereign-deprived pawn in the (Great) Game.

Did President Putin really change the game by proposing the resumption of negotiations on the proxy war in Ukraine in Istanbul – over three years after the first ones were scotched by NATO?

It’s complicated. And depends on which “game” we’re talking about.

What the Russian move instantly accomplished was to throw into tot...

Abolitionist Hypocrisies

Lysander Spooner is well known as an abolitionist who argued that slavery was a violation of natural law. In his 1858 pamphlet, “A Plan for the Abolition of Slavery, and To the Non-Slaveholders of the South,” Spooner set out what he considered to be the relevant “principles of justice and humanity,” arguing that “so long as the governments, under which they live, refuse to give them liberty or compensation, [slaves] have the right to take it by stratagem or force.” Spooner argued that property o...

Trump Says Goodbye to ‘Greater Israel’

All Things are NOT Going-Well for Netanyahu.

Washington’s unspoken intent is to eventually scrap “The Greater Israel” project, while  retaining the rhetoric.
