The truckers are still going strong in Canada and fighting for ALL of us. Trudeau’s Administration has no empathy and does not understand why anyone would want to interfere with the tyrannical plans of Schwab’s groomed young leader.
Ottawa police are now saying that it would take 1,800 police officers to end the protest. Chief Peter Sloly stated “there are no days off” for officers as the government continues to employ them around the clock. The protests have been peaceful and met with support from the local community.
Justin Trudeau is still in the fetal position somewhere, unwilling to meet with the protestors. A few days ago, the missing prime minister said that he would need to be “very, very cautious before deploying the military in situations against Canadians.” Deploying the military is not on the agenda right now, as it would elevate the situation to disastrous proportions and many military members likely support their fellow citizens.
They cannot simply tow thousands of trucks from Ottawa. The trucks are equipped with air brakes that will lock all 18 wheels once implemented, and at that point very little could move the truck. CBC interviewed numerous trucking companies for their perspective but was told that most towing companies refuse to remove trucks and risk damaging their relationship with trucking companies. The tow companies could technically “cage” the breaks by manually removing the break from each individual wheel, but that is still difficult to do without the consent of the driver. It is also a timely endeavor. In one example, it took 18 hours to remove 30 trucks and 28 cars.
In the end, even if they spend countless tax dollars to remove the trucks, the trucks can simply return. And they will return. People are passionate about this movement and it is not likely to quell until Justin Trudeau addresses the people and their pleas to remove mandates.
QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, Out of my utmost respect, you do stand-alone where all these analysts are calling for the collapse of debt and equity because of fiat currency. They may claim to have been there for the dot.com and 2008 bubbles, but you have been there for all of them. The blame they lay on the federal reserve and the creation of money and without that the stock market would not have risen. My question is that since you have the longest track record of anyone and you have forecasted every boom and bust, I would just like to hear the full explanation that sets you apart from all of these analysts.
With my deepest respect

ANSWER: First of all, the world economy has changed. It evolves like a child and it is nothing like it was when Gresham made his observations of the value of money as representing England in the Amsterdam market during the reign of Henry VIII. Because of this, the entire foundation of Austrian Economics has been rendered irrelevant – a throwback to a monetary system that no longer exists. What you MUST understand is that coming out of the Dark Ages, there really was no currency that represented the reserve currency of the world for there were not even central banks.
The value of a currency was solely the metal content. There was no premium to a currency based upon the economic and military power of one country compared to another. That is what distinguished not just Rome, but the currency of Alexander the Great as well as that of Athens. All of their currencies were imitated by other states BECAUSE they carried a premium over the metal content. This is an example of an Indian Immitation of a Roman aureus of Septimus Severus where it actually contained more gold than the official currency.
Here we have Egypt, which never issued coins until it was conquered by Alexander the Great, issued imitation of Athenian Owls with the same silver content just to be able to deal in international trade. There are plenty of examples where a currency was worth more than its metal content. This clearly establishes an exception to Gresham’s Law and Austrian Economics.
The question which arises from studying ancient coinage, is why was the coinage of Athens imitated but not in places like Aegina, Corinth, or Thebes? The answer lies in the military and economic power of Athens and then later by Macedonia.
Here is an imitation by the Helvetii (Swiss) tribes of Philip II gold stater – the father of Alexander the Great. As Macedonia rose to issue gold coins, which Athens did not issue except during its fall to Sparta, once more we see that there was recognition and value attached to the coins of a central power over and above the metal content.
This disputes the entire theory of any currency being fiat. The value of a currency is NOT any backing by gold, silver, oil, or diamonds no less its land because of agriculture. The true WEALTH OF A NATION is its people!. When Adam Smith wrote his Wealth of Nations, here was arguing against the Physiocrats who claimed that the only wealth was agriculture and this led to the days of empire building. The more land you occupied that was supposed to be the wealth of a nation. Smith argued that a blacksmith making a saddle in England selling it to a Frenchman still returned with gold as would a farmer. Hence, all produce was the wealth of a nation. This still contributed to the idea that money was to be backed by gold or silver.
China, Japan, and Germany all rose from the economic ashes of war to become major economies while they lacked gold reserves. Russia has all the reserves that should have made it the #1 currency in the world – gold, silver, platinum, diamonds, and oil. Nevertheless, Russia could not get off the ground because of its political-economic philosophy. Without freedom, no economy will ever prosper regardless of its landmass or resources without the freedom that allows economic innovation from the private sector – not the government.
That is what the entire 1959 Kitchen Debate was all about. The Soviets lived in squalor. Capitalistic freedom allowed people to dream and innovate. Hence, it was the free society that created all the innovations from a washing machine for clothes and then dishes to refrigerators. The only innovation that ever came from communism was nuclear weapons.
So I look at all of history – not just a narrow patch when there was no currency that ruled for power. They all traded in Amsterdam based solely on their metal content. Those days are long gone. The world moved from there to agriculture was wealth that produced the age of imperialism and empire-building. Today, we have seen the US dollar as the reserve currency. It is hoard overseas where 70% of the paper money circulates.
Yes, we are in a debt crisis. The debt bubble will collapse. But that is NOT because of quantitative easing or central banks. Central banks have NO control over the fiscal side of the creation of money. The QE is even debatable if that creates inflation. They are buying in debt and replacing it with cash – that is true. But that theory is also ancient history when you could not borrow against government debt before 1971. Now you trade futures and you post collateral using T-Bills. Borrowing is no longer less inflation than printing for there is no distinction between the two other than the bonds are cash that pays interest.
The wheel of history has returned full circle. When paper money was introduced during the Civil War, it paid interest according to how long it remained in circulation. Hence, it truth, money was effectively circulated bearer bonds.
The abandonment of currency that paid interest is what led to the term “greenback” meaning that there was no interest table on the back – only green ink.
Thus, once more debt is acceptable as collateral and is used by the banks as their reserve at the central bank. Thus, the theory of fiat and assuming money must be back by some commodity are long gone. The value of a currency is the total productivity of its people. Hence, China will become the new financial capital of the world based upon productivity as the climate change agenda seeks to crush our Western Economics and the value of the productivity of our people exactly as was the case in the Soviet Union.
Joel Lightbound, a member of Trudeau’s Liberty Party, has come out and rebuked Justin Trudeau and has actually shown himself as a far better leader than Trudeau who was groomed by Klaus Schwab in his Young Global Leaders indoctrination program.
Meanwhile, Both Alberta and Saskatchewan are breaking with Trudeau and ending mandates in their provinces. But Alberta many see is playing lip service and not being honest. Schwab is probably having a very bad day. His dream of ending democracy and creating an authoritarian world is starting to crumble.
COMMENT: I have three friends, that had a heart attack after the second shot and were in hospital…but recovered.
I have two colleagues from my old company (Pharma) that died of a heart attack. Docs said it had nothing to do with the vaccine they had taken weeks before. They were 42 and 56…. My boyfriend was too afraid telling me about his heart pains after the second shot….as he knew I was against taking the shot…he only told me months after.
REPLY: Our greatest problem has been that the vaccines were used for control by the government. Indeed, they may not have realized that there were risks. Now the crisis is that politicians cannot ever bring themselves to admit they made a mistake. I have friends who got the vaccine so they could travel developed the blood clots and now they are afraid to fly.
Of course, when we have the leader of the ONCE free world making a comment that reveals they knew there was a problem involving heart attacks, people just ignore it. The real question becomes as this continues to unfold, the government will be blamed and if politicians never keep their promises, why do people ever trust anything they say with regard to vaccines?
Little by little the truth is beginning to surface. I had previously written how Moderna bragged that they created the vaccine in two days. YouTube has been doing everything possible to remove any content that offers any opposition to vaccines whatsoever. I posted a video of Dr. Peter McCullough, a top cardiologist in his field, who has warned that myocarditis due to the vaccine is “way more serious”than myocarditis contracted from the virus itself. Myocarditis, or heart muscle inflammation, is a side effect of both COVID and the mRNA vaccine. YouTube removed it and has been part of this conspiracy against the people to further BigPharma profits and our politicians. Honestly, I believe YouTube can be sued over this issue for removing videos that warned people which has now proved to be fact. They do not have the immunity of BigPharm.
Worse still. the UK government has now actually admitted that these vaccines have damaged the natural immune system of those who have been double-vaccinated. Page 23 of their report states that “recent observations from UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) surveillance data that N antibody levels appear to be lower in individuals who acquire infection following 2 doses of vaccination. “
originally,thestudy of the in vitroreactions of immunesera,e.g.,precipitin,agglutination,andcomplementfixationreactions.Currently,theterm is used to refer to theuse of suchreactions to measureserumantibodytiters in infectiousdisease (serologictests), to theclinicalcorrelations of theantibodytiter(theserology of a disease),
and to theuse of serologicreactions to detectantigens(such as hlaantigens).
Most people in the hospital with COVID were in fact overwhelmingly vaccinated. Out of 162 patients, only 12 were not vaccinated. The vaccines have NOT prevented even serious hospitalizations. It has simply been a giant lie.
There have been no specific guidelines for even how to use messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines or contraindications to mRNA vaccines. There have also been NO large trials of any mRNA vaccine completed yet. Why would government subject its entire population to a vaccine for a virus that has less than a 1% death rate? This makes no sense. Some claim those vaccinated will be dead within two years and they will then be able to indoctrinate the children to be green economic slaves who have no memory of freedom. Interesting theory, but that is something more in line with the character of Bill Gates or Schwab. It is hard to believe politicians would knowingly sign up for that agenda.
My fear is that the politicians were bought and paid for with an endless supply of money, and we can assume who has been funding things behind the curtain. Slowly as we turn, little by little emerges. It turns out Google was funding the very research on viruses in Wuhan through its charity. I don’t know that they even knew what they were funding. There are even motions flying around in Washington to fire Fauci. Others have been calling for his resignation, and the fact that he does not shows he is connected. Of course, the Democrats will refuse because they would have to admit they trusted the wrong guy. Even in Germany, the former health minister was calling for an investigation of Merkel. Meanwhile, there are rumors that Merkel is seriously sick after taking a vaccine herself.

Liberal MP Joël Lightbound lightly criticized some of the stances of Canadian Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday. Within hours, the peer and party pressure upon him led to his removal from his position as Chairman of the Quebec caucus.
Lightbound encouraged the Trudeau government to provide targets to lifting restrictions; he was not implying that public health measures should be lifted immediately. He also committed the cardinal sin against COVID by asking for epidemiological data behind restrictions to be published, so people can see the information determining what measures need to be in place.
Transparency is against the interests of those within the government who weaponize covid fear. The Liberal MP also spoke about the ongoing anti-mandate protests that started as a response to cross-border vaccine mandates, saying that messaging amid the demonstrations is dividing Canadians. WATCH:
“I fear that this politicization of the pandemic risks undermining the public’s trust in our public health institutions. This is not a risk we ought to be taking lightly. I have enough respect for my fellow Canadians not to engage in these easy and absurd labels.”
The response was immediate and severe. There can be no dissent from leftist orthodoxy.

CTH has been waiting to write this because we first needed to see how both wings of the Uniparty vulture in DC were positioning. Now, with clear vision, eyes wide open and clarity of focus the issue must be centered.
How are Americans going to respond when Washington D.C, the Fourth Branch of the security and surveillance state, and all the institutions of the United States government, officially declare that Donald John Trump will not be permitted to run for office?
If you have not thought about that question, we had better hurry up and get that conversation front and center.
It’s about to happen, and President Trump knows it.
The specific phrase, “They are so desperate to hide the truth, they’ll make it criminal to speak it,” does not only pertain to the election fraud.
We really need to start thinking carefully and strategically about this.
The institutions of the United States government cannot ever admit:
(1) What they did in the 2016 election with illegal campaign surveillance of political opposition. How they weaponized the administrative state. How the intelligence agencies within the executive branch coordinated with legislative branch intelligence oversight (SSCI) and Gang of Eight members to target, then isolate, marginalize and remove Donald J Trump. How the executive and legislative branches then manipulated the judicial branch to support their activity (FISA Courts).
(2) That Robert Mueller’s appointment was intended exclusively to cover up what took place in 2016; then to assist the effort in outlasting any internal review until Trump could be removed. The entire DC establishment know this to be true. Not a single voice ever discusses it publicly. (Why?)
(3) That COVID-19 was used purposefully to create fear. That created fear was then weaponized by the same people in the same three branches of government for control and exploitation on an international scale. Which includes all of the false mitigation efforts used as part of that control; and, more importantly, the use of a “vaccine” to maintain the architecture needed for the control.
(4) That all of the entities associated with the reference points above have no way to retreat.
With the scale of this in mind – and I do mean we need to think about the scale here – there is no way these same people, domestically and internationally, can run the risk of letting Donald Trump become President of the United States again.
Too much has been revealed. The Alinsky approach will not work, because it hasn’t been able to work. The entire premise of the J6 committee is based on their knowledge they will need to make this announcement. The J6 committee is the 2022 version of the 2017 Muller appointment.
The system will make that announcement. It’s not a matter of ‘if‘, it is an issue of ‘when‘.

When hardline leftists (fascists, communists, et al) are successful in advancing their political ideology, we always reach a point where all opposition must be silenced. Dissent is a risk to the totalitarian state; that’s also why communists always ban religion.
Totalitarianism needs total control. Free speech is antithetical to that control. The natural evolution of any totalitarian state is to use the justification of security as a method for that control; hence, the U.S. received The Patriot Act, and all of the longer-term slippery slope consequences that are never fully discussed at the outset. I digress.
So, here we are today – facing a U.S. Dept of Homeland Security (DHS), under the current control of the far left, stating that free speech is now the biggest domestic threat for terrorism. Whereby the voices to target are those voices who might: “sow discord and undermine public trust in government institutions to encourage unrest, which could potentially inspire acts of violence.”
Undermine trust in government, as defined by anyone who does not blindly trust the policies from Biden administration, and you are now subject to be labeled a terrorist.
DHS Alert (Feb 7, 2022) – The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM) introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors.
Amid all the Joe Rogan controversy, Rumble has thrown its hat in the ring to offer the popular podcast host a new platform. The video streaming service is offering Joe Rogan a four-year $100 million contract to move The Joe Rogan Experience to their platform. Spotify already provided Rogan with a $100 million contract last year, however, Rumble is promising not to censor any of his content. After the Neil Young controversy, Spotify promised to protect one of its most lucrative content creators, but the race card recently came into play. Internet trolls have made a compilation of Joe Rogan saying the N-word, which he profusely apologized for while admitting the videos were taken completely out of context. There is currently a video of Joe Biden circulating from the 1980s where he mentions the N-word while quoting someone else. I felt it would not be fair to share that video or use it to paint Biden as a racist since it too was taken out of context. Despite Rogan apologizing, Spotify caved to the woke crowd and over 100 episodes of his show.
Daniel Ek, the Spotify CEO, initially supported Rogan. He pulls over 11 million viewers per episode and surpasses every other podcast creator. It would be a poor business decision to drop Rogan completely. However, Ek sided with the woke crowd painting Rogan as racist and said that they had to pull numerous episodes off of their platform to balance “creator expression with user safety.” Rogan has continued to apologize, but the media is determined to paint him as a racist despite being a father to a 23-year-old adopted biracial daughter.
Rumble has been growing in popularity since YouTube deemed itself the misinformation police by removing any video that notes an opinion that differs from the leftist narrative. In fact, I had a video removed from YouTube the first time I went on the Laura Lynn Tyler Thompson show. YouTube removed the video within hours of it being posted. Senator Rand Paul announced that he was leaving YouTube for Rumble in January after he was censored. “I’ve decided I’m going to quit giving them my content. I’m going to give my content to somebody who has a similar viewpoint to mine on speech, not necessarily politics,” Paul told reporters.
While it remains unclear if Rogan will take up Rumble on their offer, people are seeking platforms where they can speak freely. Independent news sources are becoming extinct in today’s society, where only one school of thought is allowed to present their opinions. This is why former President Trump is attempting to launch Truth Social to provide a platform for those who do not hold extreme left views. Either way, the “fringe minority” will be heard.
COMMENT: My nephews and nieces go to school in New Jersey where masks are required. If they sneeze or cough, they’re required to take numerous corona tests before returning to school. One of their schools required two negative tests despite the children contracting corona at school two months prior! We were walking into a crowded store the other day and my nephew became uneasy and put on his mask. He said he was afraid to quarantine again. The girls have never attended school without a mask. Governor Murphy deserves no praise.
REPLY: The damage to the children has already been done. Democratic Governor Murphy announced plans on Monday to repeal school mask mandates. His decision will not go into effect immediately, but rather he will wait until March 7. This is a strategic move to make Biden look good for his next State of the Union Address on March 1 where his handlers will be forced to allow him to speak. I am sure he will use this as a talking point to show how well his administration has handled the coronavirus. Critics have accused Murphy of ending the mandate for political gain. “March 7 is an arbitrary date that doesn’t have scientific backing,” state Assemblyman Christopher DePhillips, R-Bergen, said. “Why not end the mandate and all of the issues that go along with it today?”
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) admitted that cloth masks are not effective. There is no medical reason for children to wear masks all day at school or at all for that matter. Around two-thirds of American schools require mask mandates. The World Health Organization does not recommend masks for children under 5, and Europe’s version of the CDC does not recommend masks for children under 12. Yet, the US has been muzzling children over the age of 2 for years.
The damage has been done. Teachers have come out and said that small children have been having a harder time with speech and being understood. Studies have occurred that show children have trouble identifying faces and emotions due to masks. If the powers that be have managed to scare a large percentage of the world’s adults, one must wonder what they have done to the youth, some who don’t know life outside of COVID restrictions.
