FBI Reveals Seth Rich Computer Showed He May Have been The DNC Leaker

Armstrong Economics Blog/Conspiracy Re-Posted Dec 12, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

The entire story about the murder of Seth Rich, the DNC staffer who the “conspiracy theories” claimed that he was the one leaking DNC documents to Wikileaks. The mainstream media called that a conspiracy theory for the actual source was the hacking by the Russians. He was just gunned down and the police instead claimed he had been the victim of an attempted robbery that just went wrong. His parents were out to sue anyone who dared to claim their son was the leader of those documents. Of course, the passing of time always brings out the truth. The entire investigation into RussiaGate has shown that it was created by Hillary and promoted as the real story, which we now know was all fiction and in itself its own conspiracy theory that the mainstream press preferred to spread. Of course, if the mainstream press spread the story, then conspiracy theory is magically transformed into fact.

Seth Rich’s computer, in the possession of the FBI, showed the DNC staffer had relayed DNC documents to WikiLeaks. There never was any Russian interference by hacking the DNC computers for the 2016 election. Of course, that leak, Hillary maintained, cost her the election. Here we have the never-ending conspiracy theories of all the people who crossed Hillary were somehow dead. Seth Rich would neatly fit into that list. I for one as a parent, would not slander my son’s name, but perhaps look deeper and if he was the leaker, then the motive to have him killed would not be a fake robbery.

Vincent Walker Foster Jr. (1945–1993) was an American attorney who served as the Deputy White House Counsel and was under subpoena to testify. The popular fake story was that he was depressed and went to a park to commit suicide. I was told by sources in Congress that he was not killed in the park for (1) there was a piece of his head that was missing, and (2) they brought his car over 30 minutes later when they realized his car was back at the White House.

Instead of Seth’s parents trying to prevent anyone from suggesting their son was the leaker, perhaps they should consider that he was perhaps a patriot and try to expose what made him do that on behalf of his country. Wikipedia is a propaganda machine for the government. Even in college, Wikipedia is not a valid source for reference. The government directs what it is to say on anything that impacts their political agendas.

The Constitution is just a Guideline Anyway – It’s not Real

Armstrong Economics Blog/Rule of Law Re-Posted Dec 12, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT: Hi Marty,

‘The People’ in the US Constitution deny the government the authority to infringe on People’s rights such as free speech, to bear arms, etc.

Did the Founding Fathers based the Constitution on a belief that the People have Zero rights or that the People have the Divine / Inalienable Rights on par with the Sovereigns (King of England) or the Church?

It appears the 9th and 10th Amendments support the view that the people have the inalienable / divine rights and are sovereign on par with the Sovereign (King of England).

9th: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

10th: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

It would be important, especially for those in the USA and Canada, to understand this distinction. Perhaps it will open some more minds as we head into 2023.

Cheers from Canada,
L

REPLY: The Founding Fathers were concerned about the government. The press back then was perhaps biased against the King. The entire problem was there were no incidents where the government was as devious as they are today. The Constitution was concerned with restricting the government.

Patrick Henry (1736-1799) actually opposed the Constitution. On June 12th, 1788, Patrick Henry spoke during the Virginia Ratifying Convention, warning about the need for a Bill of Rights in the proposed U.S. Constitution before its adoption. During this speech, he offered a history lesson highlighting the importance of preserving freedom, but he also warned that written guarantees are, by themselves, ineffective.

The system did not exist back then that would have allowed social media etc. There was also not a Marxist leftist view of the world. That came during the mid-19th century and NOBODY was responsible for more deaths than Karl Marx and his theories will now destroy the world as we know it.

Those in power will abuse the system and circumvent it in every way they can. You have to understand the law. It is like asking a spouse are you cheating on me. They can respond no! They are obviously not cheating on you when you ask that question. You did not ask did they ever or about yesterday.

I agree that the “intent” of the Constitution never was to allow Social Media or private companies to violate your right any more than the government. They did not exist back then. So they are using clever ways to get around the Constitution. Even what they did to me. Technically, I as an individual was NEVER put into prison in contempt for I supposedly had constitutional rights. They relied on a Supreme Court case Braswell v. United States, 487 U.S. 99 (1988), and I was put in contempt as a corporate officer since corporations have no rights. Under their twisted view, I as an individual was not in prison – my parallel self as only a corporate officer.

You just can’t make up this stuff. If you technically work for a corporation, you have no rights because the corporation has no human rights. They just go after you not as a person but as a corporate officer and, whala – you eliminated the Constitution altogether.

So as Patrick Henry warned, even putting it in writing means nothing. Contracts, even in business, mean nothing. It is the character of the person signing that matters. JP Morgan tried to explain that when being grilled by the ruthless prosecutor Samuel Untermeyer. That is our problem. The Constitution is at best just a guideline. The character of the people in government today does not want any restraints. They circumvent the Constitution every chance they get.

After 40 Days of Silence President Jair Bolsonaro Tells The Brazilian People They Will Determine The Future, The Military Will Support The People

Posted originally on the CTH on December 11, 2022 | Sundance

After an election fraught with corruption within Brazil, President Jair Bolsonaro was silent as tens of millions of people filled the streets in protest. Brazilian President-elect Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is in a tenuous position with the military looming and prepared for intervention.

Today, after remaining silent for 40 days, and with increased national sentiment in strong opposition to the election fraud that happened, Jair Bolsonaro spoke to a massive crowd telling them the military would follow the constitution and determine the outcome. The certification of the election is scheduled for Monday.

It appears that Bolsonaro is telling the people of Brazil that whatever the people do, they will not suffer at the hand of the Brazilian military – it appears Bolsonaro has the word of the generals within the military to support the people and not conduct violence against them. WATCH:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=zY5k-GZp10A%3Ffeature%3Doembed

It is highly probable, given the stakes of the matter, that Joe Biden has signed a ‘finding memo’ authorizing the U.S State Department and CIA to conduct covert influence operations in the country. The security forces in/around Jair Bolsonaro appear to be on high alert as the well-liked leader talks to the people of Brazil.

(Reuters) – Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro broke his silence on Friday for the first time since his election defeat on Oct. 30 and spoke to supporters calling for a military coup to stop leftist President-elect Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva taking office.

Bolsonaro said he had kept silent for almost 40 days, adding, “it hurts my soul.”

“Who decides where I go are you. Who decides which way the armed forces go are you,” Bolsonaro told his supporters at the gates of the presidential residence.

In his ambiguous comments, Bolsonaro did not endorse their call for a military intervention, but said the armed forces would respect Brazil’s Constitution.

He has not recognized Lula’s victory in the October elections and his silence encouraged supporters to continue demonstrations outside army bases.

Lula’s narrow victory over Bolsonaro will be certified by Brazil’s national electoral authority on Monday. (more)

Jair Bolsonaro has confirmed that he is the Supreme Chief of the Armed Forces, and they will back the Brazilian citizens… pic.twitter.com/I0iRcRwBuS

Blackrock Warns of Severe Global Recession Ahead as Central Bank Ability to Control Inflation, Caused by Global Energy Shift, Will Have Consequences

Posted originally on the CTH on December 8, 2022 | Sundance

It is always worth a reminder when reviewing anything from Blackrock, that the institutional investment firm has strong ties to almost every sphere of White House policy.

Today Blackrock is warning of severe economic conditions looming, the unspoken origin traces to the collective western economic shift in energy policy, aka “Build Back Better.”

As noted in the Blackrock warning, under the auspices of inflation control, central banks can try and shrink economic activity – but they are limited. Organically, economies will free fall once the full weight of BBB energy policy accumulates.

(Business Insider) – […] A worldwide recession is just around the corner as central banks boost borrowing costs aggressively to tame inflation — and this time, it will ignite more market turbulence than ever before, according to BlackRock.

The global economy has already exited a four-decade era of stable growth and inflation to enter a period of heightened instability — and the new regime of increased unpredictability is here to stay, according to the world’s biggest asset manager.

That means policymakers will no longer be able to support markets as much as they did during past recessions, a team of BlackRock strategists led by vice chairman Philipp Hildebrand wrote in a report titled 2023 Global Outlook.

“Recession is foretold as central banks race to try to tame inflation. It’s the opposite of past recessions,” they said. “Central bankers won’t ride to the rescue when growth slows in this new regime, contrary to what investors have come to expect. Equity valuations don’t yet reflect the damage ahead.” (read more)

This type of macroeconomic prediction should not come as a surprise to most CTH readers, because we have been outlining the natural conclusion of consequence.

Once the decision was collectively made to shrink the use of oil, coal and natural gas for energy development, the subsequent inflationary impact would lead to a need to shrink economic activity. Raising interest rates to shrink demand does make the economy contract; however, the energy driven supply side inflation continues.

Nothing can stop supply side inflation, except a massive decline in energy use.

A severe reduction in energy use, similar in scale to the energy use reduction when pandemic lockdowns were in full effect, can only lead to the same overall economic conditions as present within the lockdown. Which is to say, almost no economic activity.

Flirting With the End Times?

Armstrong Economics Blog/Economics Re-Posted Dec 8, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

QUESTION: You have said you have backtested your ECM into ancient times. Have these cycles been consistent? Have you arrived at a conclusion as to why?

Thank you. It was a great WEC. I for one always lean a lot.

ANSWER: Yes, I have reconstructed the monetary system of the world using the coinage so it is possible to actually backtest to see how these cycles have prevailed for millennia. The debasement of the silver coinage. The reforms of Diocletian and how the bronze follis declined once more.

No matter where you look, you see the steady unfolding of a decline and fall of the monetary system. These people who think a return to the gold standard will somehow prevent corruption or inflation are just living in a dream world. When money was just a coin, inflation still existed. You cannot escape this – EVER!

My next book is to get this out ASAP. Here, I have backtested the model and I believe that this incorporates everything from climate, war, and human nature that is behind the rise and fall of civilizations throughout history. Naturally, academics will be against it because they do not want to accept that there is any regularity to the business cycle for that means that government does NOT have the power to manipulate society as Marx and Keynes told them.

We are clearly flirting with the end times insofar as the decline & fall of Western Culture. I have traced this back to ancient times and its regularity has been impressive.

Even the collapse of the Bronze Age Civilization was two times the 31.4-year intervals of the 51.6-year wave. You can feel it. We are tearing everything that held society together apart at the seams. Civilizations rise when everyone benefits. They fall when one group begins to exploit another. That is what is taking place right now.

Europe’s Leadership – Pure Insanity

Armstrong Economics Blog/Energy Re-Posted Dec 6, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

Europe is trying to impose a cap on Russian oil at $60 a barrel. Russian authorities rejected a price cap and threatened to stop supplying the nations that endorsed it.

Australia, Britain, Canada, Japan, the United States and the 27-nation European Union agreed to cap what they would pay for Russian oil at $60-per-barrel. The limit is set to take effect along with an EU embargo on Russian oil shipped by sea.

In all honesty, this is the most braindead decision up their with trying to peg currencies. These people constantly reject any understanding of a business cycle and follow in the footsteps of Karl Marx believing that they even have the power to regulate prices of anything. Bretton Woods collapsed because of this same stupid reasoning of fixing the the dollar to gold at $35 per ounce. They capped the price of gold to dollars but never limited the amount of dollars they created. A 3-year old with a pocket calculator could have figured out that system would collapse.

So here we are with world leaders once again engaging in absolute stupidity that will come back to to rue the day they ever came up with this idea. If the price of oil rises to $100, they will prevent their own economies from acquiring energy. That would push the price of oil up even higher if they can only then buy non-Russian oil. Crude closed 2021 at $75.21. In their mind, they are trying still to destroy the Russian economy. This trick will only backfire.

Then this high-heel dancing head of Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelensky, meanwhile, actually revealed the Ukrainian hatred of Russians and why Russia came to the aid of the Donbas because they would massacre every Russian they get their hands on as they did in Odessa as the West was silent for Russians are not entitled to human rights. Andriy Yermak, the head of Zelensky’s office, wrote on Telegram, staking out a position also favored by Poland which has also lost its mind, which will further create World War III since that is what has already been announced against Russia.

“It would be necessary to lower it to $30 in order to destroy the enemy’s economy faster.”

Granted, Russia’s crude has already been selling for around $60 a barrel, which is a deep discount from the international benchmark Brent. Whatever these people can do to create chaos in the world markets and bring the world to the brink of a major international war, they are doing it brilliantly.

BTW, our model called the low in 2020, had a Directional Change for 2022, and the next key turning point is the strongest on the Array in 2023. So thank you, braindead politicians. I am sure they will blame Putin and argue he is using energy as a weapon when, by their own statements, that is what they are doing to bring down Russia.

These world leaders are trying to cap the price of oil below market value and then this evil leader of Ukraine, Zelensky, wants the cap to be $30. I warned that Zelensky will be the man, or whatever pronoun he/she prefers, that will create World War III just as the Serbs began World War I. A low in 2023 will most likely see a slingshot up into the years ahead.

No Joke, Climate Change Professionals Now Provide Goals and Individual Allowances for Transportation, Food, and Clothing

Posted originally on the CTH on December 5, 2022 | Sundance

Carbon trading is the economic platform to generate government income. That income then drives the carbon control financial mechanisms that will be deployed to the people. At the end of the financial lane, we arrive at a world with Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs). The digital money provides instant control over spending and carbon resource allocation.

For many years the carbon allowances for individuals were esoteric goals as presented by those who assemble at various global COP meetings, Davos and the World Economic Forum. However, with rapid advances in the energy control process, a result of the pandemic and Build Back Better exit, the control officers are now quantifying the specifics for the individual citizen. [pdf Here]

In short, we are now getting down to the brass tacks. Your resource allocation is part of the “consumption intervention” consideration, where the amount of carbon emission your consumption drives is what determines the goal for your future allocation.

[From the Abstract] – There is a growing consensus, based on compelling evidence, that the world is facing a climate crisis and rapid action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is a necessity. Historically, decision-makers and academics have discussed a range of options that can reduce our carbon footprint over the long-term. However, recent evidence demonstrates that choosing between one option and another is no longer compatible with rapid and significant emission reductions.

Increasingly, all options are required, and this involves multiple actors exploring how they can respond to the current climate crisis; including national government, cities, business and civil society. (read more)

As you can see above, the goal is to remove meat and dairy products completely.

In the next chart, you can see your allocation for “net clothing and textiles“:

You will be permitted 3 new clothing items each year.

In the Transporation sector, the ambitious goal is to remove all private vehicles, and the target lifetime of vehicles is 50 years.

For airline travel, citizens will be permitted one flight less than 1,500km (930 miles) every three years.

[Abstract] – “The wide range of action required to achieve a 1.5°C scenario leaves little room for delay or failure over the coming decade; other broad, supporting policies can provide a safety net by bringing about complimentary emission reductions. Examples of such policies are a wide deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS), particularly in industries that emit direct emissions, and carbon pricing mechanisms that can underpin action across entire economies and markets. However, even deeper paradigmatic shifts may be relevant, such as adopting more useful measures of societal development than just economic growth. In practice, no one city or nation will follow the exact same emissions reduction pathway, but this report provides direction on the type, scale and timescale of policies that will need to be implemented (read more).

As mentioned in the beginning, these are the allocations we can expect to see in the future.

The enforcement mechanisms will likely vary depending on government power amid the various nations within the collective western society. However, based on the successful results from the COVID passport beta tests, gateways and permissions, some form of digital currency will likely be part of the compliance process for the carbon allocation as outlined.

Germany Ordering Farmers No Fertilizer

Armstrong Economics Blog/Climate Re-Posted Dec 4, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

Germany is to comply virtually immediately with the EU directive to end fertilizer following the same path as the Netherlands. There is just no support in the data for Climate Change Mania. This is part of an agenda that will no doubt reduce the population along with the termination of fossil fuels. These people want war it appears to reduce the population as well and the people are fools to buy into this agenda. The lowest peak average temperature was in the year 2000 at 72.7 degrees. The low in this data set was 1888 and 72.6.and it was 72.8 in 1869. That is when we were rising from the Mini Ice Age all without soccer-moms driving SUVs to take the kids to games and schools. This does not support the proposition that CO2 from the Industrial Revolution has caused climate change.

I am sure this post would be canceled in 3 seconds or less on YouTube and Google will block it. This is the government’s own data since 1869 on New York City. I do not see some drastic warming trend as they have argued. The temperatures have oscillated with the energy output of the sun and as we head into Solar Minimum, it will get colder and dryer into 2024.

I’m sorry, but this Climate Change is absurd and it certainly does not justify what is being carried out all in the name of saving the planet. It seems that they want to kill off our children and grandchildren – not theirs between reducing food production and creating World War III. They seem to be just evil.
