Controlled Chaos at the Border


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Jun 10, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

A border patrol agent from Uvalde, Texas, admitted that the situation at the US-Mexico border is worse than the mainstream media is reporting. The mainstream media may cause one to believe that a few desperate people in search of the American dream are crossing the border throughout the week. In reality, THOUSANDS of undocumented immigrants are entering the country every single day.

Biden’s recent media appearance to Uvalde after the tragic school massacre is the closest he has ever been to the border. His vice president, who is in charge of the border crisis, visited once solely to spite Donald Trump after he said he would visit the border to assess the situation personally.

The Del Rio area near Uvalde has experienced 236,159 illegal crossings during this fiscal year alone. The US Customs and Border Protection records state that illegal crossings continually increase every month of the year. April alone saw a high of 234,088 illegal aliens apprehended, a 12,000 person increase from March.

The Biden Administration has an open border policy at this time. During a NewsMax interview, a border patrol agent admitted that there are barely any agents patrolling the border with “skeleton staffing.” Despite lockdowns for COVID and fears of rampant disease, these illegal immigrants are not tested for illness and are often released by the masses in residential areas.

Worse, the border patrol agent interviewed said that the children in the Uvalde school massacre could have possibly believed it was another migrant running from police. He admitted that schools near the border often go into lockdown during police pursuits. “We just thought this was a normal everyday occurrence,” the agent said of the helpless children who have become desensitized to crime near the border and their school. We do not have the money or resources to protect our own children and border, but somehow send our taxpaying dollars to Ukraine by the billions.

Biden is a disgrace to America. He demanded that the border patrol agents disarm before meeting him, prompting many to turn around and go home. An off-duty border patrol agent, Jacob Albarado, heroically stormed the elementary school and eliminated the threat. He and his men should have been honored by the president instead of insulted to push this agenda to repeal 2A. This is “controlled chaos” as the Biden Administration is deliberately allowing hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants to enter the country.

Sen. Kennedy on Gas Prices: “It’d be Cheaper to Buy Cocaine and Just Run Everywhere”


Armstrong Economics Blog/Energy Re-Posted Jun 10, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) ripped into the entire Biden Administration for economic mismanagement. “Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen — who was also captain of ‘Team Transitory Inflation’ — announced she’s really sorry but inflation’s not gonna [sic] be transitory, it’s gonna [sic] be with us for a long while,” Kennedy recounted. “In other words, she does not have a solution to inflation but she really admires the problem — in other words, get used to it.” This comes shortly after Yellen admitted she was wrong on her stance on inflation after assuring the public for years that prices would cool.

President Biden actually admitted there was nothing he could do – or think of doing – to lower the cost of goods. “There’s a lot going on right now but the idea we’re going to be able to click a switch, bring down the cost of gasoline, is not likely in the near term. Nor is it with regard to food,” Biden said at the White House. “We can’t take immediate action that I’m aware of yet to figure out how we’re bringing down the prices of gasoline back to $3 a gallon. And we can’t do that immediately with regard to food prices either,” he said. This is why action needs to be taken before a problem becomes a crisis. Biden went on to yet again blame Putin for rising inflation, dismissing any blame, and shrugging his shoulders as if there is nothing he can do as the president of the world’s largest economy.

Garnering laughter, Kennedy jokingly said that gas is so expensive it would “be cheaper to buy cocaine and just run everywhere.” The price comparison may be something for Hunter to weigh in on.

Kennedy’s humorous outburst was truthful. “Meanwhile her [Yellen’s] boss, President Biden, continues to campaign for more economic chaos by trying to convince us in Congress to raise taxes by $3.5 trillion by expanding an already generous welfare state and by turning cops into social workers,” he said. He went on to mock Vice President Harris for having an “epiphany” and realizing that illegal immigration was a problem. “She wants American companies to invest $3 billion — not in America — but in Central American countries,” he said. “Many of which hate us,” Kennedy said, while also noting some of that money would be stolen.

The Biden Administration has no solution for inflation or the immigration crisis. They currently are throwing money everywhere and worsening every situation they pretend to be solving.

WHO Do You Think You Are? Nations Reject Pandemic Treaty


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Jun 9, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

All the world leaders supporting the Great Reset were eager to relinquish complete power to the World Health Organization (WHO). The WHO wanted to seize the ability to force health mandates on the global population. The Pandemic Treaty would have allowed the WHO to bypass national laws and implement their will on the people.

A message from the WHO:

The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed gaps in the governance, financing and systems needed to keep the world safe from epidemics and pandemics. There is an emerging global consensus around the need for an international treaty or other legally binding instrument, to provide the framework for a more coherent and coordinated response to future epidemics and pandemics.

Botswana was the first nation to say, “NO.” Then the entire continent of Africa declined to join the treaty, which is no surprise considering that these health organizations use their nations and people for experimental purposes. Russia, India, China, South Africa, Iran, Malaysia, and Brazil also rejected the treaty.

“National sovereignty is not something to be handed over to WHO or other entities and to be renounced just to join a club of seemingly advanced nations,” Brazil’s Bolsonaro said after threatening to exit the WHO. Former President Trump attempted to exit the WHO, but Joe Biden dragged America back into the organization. Trudeau does not care about the Canadian people and has continued to fight Parliament tooth and nail to hand his nation to Schwab on a silver platter.

We are not completely safe. “They have not given up though – far from it,” warned Queensland, Australia, Member of Parliament Stephen Andrew. “Instead, they did what they always do and ‘pivoted.’ At their request, a new working group was convened to make ‘technical recommendations on the proposed amendments which will [be] re-submitted along with the Pandemic Treaty, at the 77th Health Assembly meeting in 2024.”

One can hope that the voters will continue to elect leaders that fight for medical autonomy, as handing over full power to a corrupt organization will truly place us in a dystopian world void of freedom.

Former Brazilian President Accuses Zelensky of Using War for Fame

Former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who plans to run again in the 2022 Brazilian Presidential Election, believes Zelensky is equally responsible for the ongoing war. “I see the president of Ukraine, speaking on television, being applauded, getting a standing ovation by all the [European] parliamentarians,” he said when speaking to Time. “This guy [Zelensky] is as responsible as Putin for the war.”

Lula believes Zelensky made a fatal misstep by failing to promise he would not seek to join NATO. Furthermore, he believes that he should have negotiated a settlement with Russia’s Putin long before the fighting began. “We should be having a serious conversation. OK, you were a nice comedian. But let us not make war for you to show up on TV,” Lula said, claiming the Ukrainian president simply wants more fame and attention.  

Current Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has not condemned Putin’s actions.  Vice President Hamilton Mourão claimed, “Brazil was not neutral,” but Bolsonaro quickly corrected that statement. “It is my decision, but I want to hear from people who are actually ministers to deal with these issues. We are for peace, we want peace. We traveled in peace to Russia. We had an exceptional interaction with President Putin,” he said, stating that Brail will not be taking sides. In fact, Bolsonaro traveled to Russia a week before the conflict began and spoke highly of his “friend” Putin.

Regardless of the West’s stance, Brazil does not appear poised to enter the conflict anytime soon. Brazil is likely more interested in securing lucrative deals with Russia now that they have been shunned from the global economy.

Bolsonaro Implies Doubt on Biden Election Ahead of Latin America Summit


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 8, 2022 | Sundance

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro wasn’t just throwing shade at the 2020 election outcome for Joe Biden, Bolsonaro seemingly ponders the question about how many western leaders might be the result of WEF manipulated elections.  All things considered; it is a valid question.

SAO PAULO, June 7 (Reuters) – Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro on Tuesday cast doubt on the 2020 election victory of U.S. President Joe Biden, just two days before they are due to meet for the first time during the Summit of the Americas.

Bolsonaro, an outspoken admirer of former President Donald Trump, said in a TV interview that he still harbors suspicions about Biden’s victory and he again praised Trump’s government.

In 2020, the Brazilian leader voiced allegations of U.S. election fraud as he backed Trump. Bolsonaro was also one of the last world leaders to recognize Biden’s win.

“The American people are the ones who talk about it (election fraud). I will not discuss the sovereignty of another country. But Trump was doing really well,” Bolsonaro said. “We don’t want that to happen in Brazil,” he added. (read more)

With the totalitarian comfort we have seen from multiple western governments’, in both scale and scope, it does make you wonder just how far they would be willing to go to retain power.   After all, there are trillions at stake.

Debunking All Of Biden’s BOLD FACE LIES


By Savanah Hernandez  originally on Published on June 7, 2022 

The one thing the Biden administration does best is lie to our faces on a daily basis. From blaming Russia for our food shortages and gas prices to saying that “America is in a stronger economic position” than ever before, this administration can pretend America is doing fine, but we can all see the reality with our own two eyes.

Leaders of Latin-America Nations, Mexico, Bolivia, Guatemala and Honduras Boycott Joe Biden’s Latin-America Summit


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 6, 2022 | Sundance

Within the same 30-day cycle Joe Biden asked Venezuela to produce and deliver more oil in order to help him politically.  The Venezuelan government, having been the subject of an attempted coup and sanctions driven by the DC interventionist mindset, refused to assist.  Joe Biden then refused to invite Venezuela to his Latin-America summit scheduled for this week.

Latin-America leaders are not stupid.  It doesn’t matter whether the self-interested bully comes from the east or the west, they are not blind to the parasitic self-interest contained within the blackmail of any larger nations on the geopolitical stage; especially as the cleaving of the west and east is taking place with increased ferocity.

Today Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez-Obrador announced he will not attend Joe Biden’s Latin-America summit.

AMLO joins the leaders of Bolivia, Guatemala, Honduras and the tiny Caribbean state of St. Vincent in refusing to attend the summit because Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua were blocked from attending by the Biden administration.

(Via Wall Street Journal) – […] After weeks of wrangling over the issue amid threats of country boycotts, the administration excluded the three autocracies due to U.S. concerns over human rights and lack of democratic institutions in those countries, the officials said. The regional summit, scheduled for June 6-10 in Los Angeles, is expected to focus on migration and economic issues.

“I’m not going because not all the countries of America are invited,” said Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador Monday at his daily press conference. The Mexican leader said he had a good relationship with Mr. Biden and that he planned to visit the White House in July.

[…] The political rift between the U.S. and some Latin American leaders may hurt U.S. efforts to agree on a regional plan to fight irregular immigration toward the U.S., which is at record levels. In March, U.S. border authorities apprehended nearly 210,000 migrants attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border illegally, the highest monthly tally since 2000.

The rift could also benefit China, which has significantly increased its trade and diplomatic presence in the hemisphere in the last two decades, experts say. Beijing quickly supported Mr. López Obrador’s demand that all countries of the Americas be invited to the summit. (read more)

The Biden administration’s foreign policy is advanced under the predicate of threats and bullying.  Despite the media effort to gaslight the American audience, the foreign policy of Donald Trump, economic nationalism, was much more respected by leaders who appreciated negotiations on geopolitical dynamics where the interest of both nations was present at the table.  For the Biden administration, as generally and historically reflected in the foreign policy of all democrats, the preferred approach is brutal force.  A ‘do as we need – or you will pay a heavy price,’ diplomatic approach.

The irony of media narrative construction, reality -vs- media portrayal, is not lost on anyone who follows closely.

A sad, albeit perhaps intended outcome, will be for Latin-America countries being less willing to support any U.S. effort to stop the flow of illegal aliens from Central America through Mexico and into the U.S. via the southern border, already in crisis.

From the 30,000 ft perspective, this lack of Latin-America migration assistance would appear to be an intended feature, not a foreign policy flaw.

The Biden administration approach follows the familiar Alinsky pattern of planning and executing a purposeful crisis, then throwing up hands to say ‘we are trying, but there is no easy fix.’  Insert a similar reference toward U.S. energy costs, sound familiar?

As noted by the Wall Street Journal, “in recent years, democratic values have eroded across parts of the hemisphere.”   There is every reason to believe the people behind the Biden administration are creating the rise of Autocracy while simultaneously decrying the rise of Autocracy.  The unilateral fiats used by western leaders during their COVID-19 responses were completely autocratic, yet suddenly they clutch their pearls and decry autocracy.

Factually, the rise of autocratic or nationalistic perspectives helps to cement the global cleaving underway.   At the end of this continuum there will be a new geopolitical alignment, a heavily controlled and manipulated set of western societies where citizens are suddenly controlled by centralized government and bureaucracy.  This is what many refer to as “The Great Reset.”

In the United States all the interested parties, specifically including the media apparatus, remain committed to pretending the reset is not underway.  For those who watch events unfold with eyes-wide-open, the reality of the future is clear.

Biden Implies Ukraine May Need to Cede Territory to Russia During Negotiated Settlement


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 4, 2022 | sundance 

During press remarks yesterday, Joe Biden implied that Ukraine may need to cede territory in Eastern Ukraine to Russia as part of a “negotiated settlement.”

The statement came at the end of remarks centered around the May jobs report and Biden’s claim that U.S. consumers were in the best economic position of the past decade, therefore the government must begin increasing direct subsidies to offset energy costs and massive inflation pressure.  When Biden was asked, “does Ukraine have to cede territory to achieve some peace?” he stated:

[Transcript] – [F]rom the beginning, I’ve said and I’ve been — not everyone has agreed with me — nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine.  It’s their territory.  I’m not going to tell them what they should and shouldn’t do.

But it appears to me that, at some point along the line, there’s going to have to be a negotiated settlement here.  And what that entails, I don’t know.  I don’t think anybody knows at the time.

But in the meantime, we’re going to continue to put the — the Ukrainians in a position where they can defend themselves.  Thank you all so very much. (link)

It has been obvious from the outset that annexing Eastern Ukraine, the region containing a majority pro-Russia population, was always the intended objective of Russian aggression.  With Biden making this admission public, it raises the question then why did we agree to send $40 billion?

Russia’s hold on the Eastern Ukraine Donbas region is now essentially complete.  This is the area that had been in a state of civil war since 2008, and the Russian annexation would essentially bring that conflict to an end.

Any Ukraine-Russia negotiation would come down to Ukraine acquiescing to the territory already lost.  It’s not like Russia is going to give it back.  The “negotiated settlement” amounts to the Ukraine and western NATO alliance admitting Russia has accomplished its intended objective.

It seems doubtful that Joe Biden sought approval from the U.S. State Dept, CIA and Senate Foreign Relations Committee, specifically those who are conducting this proxy war, prior to this statement.

Newsom Hopeful for a Harris Presidency


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted May 31, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

Governor Newsom is promising Californians everything under the sun if they vote for him. Most recently, Newsom stated that he would not run for president if elected before his next term would end in 2027. “Yeah, I mean, I have sub-zero interest. It’s not even on my radar,” he self-proclaimed. Newsom then slipped and said that he believes Kamala Harris will be America’s next president.

Harris has done absolutely nothing as vice president. A Trafalgar poll stated that only 28% of respondents approved of how Harris is handling her job. Harris has a notoriously high staff turnover rate as well, and there are reports of Biden and Harris often in disagreement behind the curtain. Harris could technically split from Biden and run for the candidacy in 2024. The list of qualifications to become a US president are less than what is required of an entry-level fast-food worker.

US presidential requirements:

  • A presidential candidate must be a natural-born citizen of the United States
  • They must be a resident for 14 years
  • They must be 35-years-old or older

Only 15 vice presidents in US history, including Joe Biden, have won the presidency out of 46 who applied. President Biden confirmed in January that he would select Kamala Harris as his running mate if he runs for reelection in 2024. Before Biden’s announcement in January, Harris told every press outlet willing to listen that she was not sure if Biden would select her for reelection.

Biden will be 81 by the next election but has stated he plans to run despite his obvious mental health decline. The Democrats would be wise to choose a different candidate, but not Kamala who is even less popular and competent than Joe.
