Beware of the IMF


Armstrong Economics Blog/Climate Re-Posted Sep 21, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Any small businessman is always trying to improve his business and expand it to be more profitable. That seems to be a common trait but what you must understand is that the same human trait dominates the bureaucracies and it is dominant at the United Nations, et al. From the very beginning, those in the UN believed that they should rule the world, for the only way to stop World War III was a one-world government.

From the very beginning, the UN saw democracy as a nuisance. The people were too STUPID to know what was best. How could they ever be relied upon to select world leaders? Julian Huxley, the first director of UNESCO, actually put in the founding documents that “unrestricted individualism is equally erroneous.”  In other words, the very idea of human rights, liberty, and freedom was equally as wrong as communism. The only kind of government was one that was authoritarian and not subject to the whims of the people. This has been the goal, and they are pulling it off.

The United Nations has produced a 26-page report outlining an action plan to address the various socio-economic impacts of COVID-19 and the DESTRUCTION of the world economy. This has been intentionally carried out to create this one-world government ultimately. The UN is at the helm and its subdivisions — the International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Health Organization (WHO), World Bank, and the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) — herein referred to as the UN Consortium.

The United Nations has been using climate change to create a one-world government order, but they have run into way too much resistance. So when they were not convincing people to hand them all the power they dreamed of using climate change, they switched and kick-started this grab for power using COVID-19. The origin of the virus was most likely a deliberate leak in China so that everyone would blame them.

This UN Consortium has moved on to something that allows them to use the threat that people will die IMMEDIATELY unless they surrender all their freedoms using COVID terrorism. So far, this has worked very well. Meanwhile, they have sold the fact that socialism is collapsing and the revolution will become inevitable, so we need the Great Reset to restructure a new world order eliminating Democracy in any meaningful manner. Oh, certainly they will allow you to think your vote means something like electing MPs in Europe when Parliament cannot do anything but show up for the cameras.

The climate change agenda was to seize industry and effectively nationalize them, but it was also the justification as to why the UN must be in charge since no single nation would be able to save the planet. They will do that now by virtually bankrupting them, and the state will just take them over. This scheme was even discussed in Germany to nationalize companies since they could not bail them out. For years, the IMF has wanted to replace the sovereignty of the nation-states with a neutral body of experts. This one-world government should be able to dictate financial policy to nation-states. Such a “government” would give the top finance bosses direct access to the savings accounts and assets of the citizens.

The United Nations wants 10% of the world’s entire income for itself. While we argue over the vaccines, the origin of COVID, and where it was leaked, plus climate change, all of this is a distraction from the true agenda of the Great Reset. They are rolling it all out little by little while keeping the attention on the vaccine and climate change so that people do not connect the dots to see the real agenda.

Climate Always Changes

Atacama Desert

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, I want to commend you for standing up against the covert agenda of global warming. It is dumbfounding how decades of research into geology can just be ignored. You are correct that everything changes. The magnetic polls move continually so places that were tropic became covered in ice and places that are ice will become tropic. The rain in the desert that miraculously created flowers from nowhere demonstrates how dynamic our climate truly is far beyond this narrowed view of climate. No one who is a real scientist would ever ascribe to this theory suggesting those advocating this theory are bribed or ignorant. Take your choice.

PD

Siberian Rare Flower 32000 yrs old

REPLY: Correct. The Atacama desert experienced a burst of flowers springing to life after El Niño brought the heaviest rainfall in two decades earlier this year. The Atacama desert is normally one of the driest places on Earth. The flowers normally bloom every 5 to 7 years in cycles.

Then in Siberia, Russians discovered ancient seeds of a plant long extinct that they managed to bring back to life. It is the oldest plant to ever be regenerated after 32,000 years. This demonstrates that there was fertile land in Siberia and it was not always cold.

The Piri Reis map was accidentally discovered in 1929 in a Turkish museum. There is no logical explanation for a map that shows the detailed outline of Antarctica without ice unless there was no ice -– ancient global warming. In 1513, Turkish admiral Piri Reis designed the map of the world. This map then included Portugal, Spain, West Africa, Central and South Atlantic, the Caribbean, the eastern half of South America, and a part of Antarctica. It is also believed that there was North America, but the rest of the map was destroyed.

The point is that there is abundant evidence that the climate hasALWAYS changed; the magnetic poles have always moved, and with them, the ice. This is the picture that they use to sell their idea of global warming. A new NASA study of Antarctica has also shown that there is more ice than what has been alleged, quite frankly because the poles do move. The very same result has been shown at the North Pole – there is more ice today than when Al Gore first brought up the issue.

Instead of investigating and objectively understanding (1) that the poles move, and (2) climate has always changed, we have turned this into a justification for taxes by creating an alarming issue that is total nonsense. Changing the environment by throwing garbage in the water or diesel fuel in buses so you cannot breathe is a SEPARATE issue from changing the climate of the Earth. To achieve one is to exaggerate the other. Those who refuse to even consider alternates to the propaganda demonstrate that they have closed minds and cannot survive the turmoil of what is coming.

Thousands of Victoria Construction Workers, Union Members and Supporters Join in Protest – Riot Police Standoff, Livestream Video Link


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 20, 2021 | Sundance | 243 Comments

Thousands of Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) members in Victoria, Australia, have returned to the streets as hundreds of riot police are positioned for a stand-off.  It will be interesting to see if the police are willing to go to physical battle against the construction workers. {Background HERE} This is Day #2.

The Union Leader, John Setka, called his union members “fascist morons” today and the union members are showing up in force to confront him and the police.   The police would be idiots to take on this crowd still growing in size; which is to say they are likely stupid enough to do it….

There is a FACEBOOK LIVESTREAM HERE.

–  Twitter Accounts to Follow HERE – and – HERE –

Everything is being throttled by Google, Big Tech and the totalitarian forces united against the global movement for freedom.  Australian media are too scared of the union to cover the protests. You will have to fight extremely hard to get the truth on this story. one.  Major events unfolding live.  Just trying to get this post uploaded is almost impossible.  WARNING, those livestream videos will have very salty language – the union members are very angry.

(Sky News) – The protesting tradies reportedly have a list of demands they want met including the resignation of Premier Daniel Andrews and Chief Health Officer Professor Brett Sutton. They are also demanding that the lockdown ends immediately and the mask mandate be removed. Hundreds of police are stationed outside the damaged CFMEU building that was the centre of chaotic scenes on Monday. (LINK)

Project Veritas Undercover Expose The Dangers of COVID Vaccine and Federal Medical Facility Hiding The Problems

[PHOENIX – Sept. 20, 2021] Project Veritas released the first video of its COVID vaccine investigative series today featuring an interview with U.S. Health and Human Services [HHS] insider, Jodi O’Malley, who works as a Registered Nurse at the local Indian Medical Center. (read more)

FBI Raids Beverly Hills Area Safe Deposit Boxes Fishing for Illegal Contraband, Then Confiscate all Contents Saying Owners Need To Prove Contents are Legal Property


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 20, 2021 | Sundance | 203 Comments

This story is almost unbelievable, but unfortunately it is very real.  The FBI suspected a safe deposit box company named U.S. Private Vaults was participating in money laundering.  The feds gained a search warrant with very specific limitations (which they abruptly violated), to look at the legal contents of some boxes.  However, the judge said no content could be removed unless the FBI specifically could prove the content was illegal.

The feds ignored the search warrant parameters and just started busting open the boxes, confiscating $86 million in cash, jewelry, rare coins and precious metals.  When the owners went to court the FBI said the contents smelled like marijuana – ergo the owners had to prove how they came into legal possession of the items.  The issues are not resolved, but at least a few judges are rightly looking at this as a clear violation of the 4th amendment…..

(Los Angeles Times) – […] Ruiz is one of roughly 800 people whose money and valuables the FBI seized from safe deposit boxes they rented at the U.S. Private Vaults store in a strip mall on Olympic Boulevard.

Federal agents had suspected for years that criminals were stashing loot there, and they assert that’s exactly what they found. The government is trying to confiscate $86 million in cash and a stockpile of jewelry, rare coins and precious metals taken from about half of the boxes.

But six months after the raid, the FBI and U.S. attorney’s office in Los Angeles have produced no evidence of criminal wrongdoing by the vast majority of box holders whose belongings the government is trying to keep.

About 300 of the box holders are contesting the attempted confiscation. Ruiz and 65 others have filed court claims saying the dragnet forfeiture operation is unconstitutional.

[…] In preliminary rulings, U.S. District Judge R. Gary Klausner blocked the government’s forfeiture cases against Ruiz and three others, saying the lack of any “specific factual and legal basis” violated their rights to due process. (read more)

The FBI is an out of control, rogue enforcement agency.

THE FOURTH AMENDMENT – “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

Arizona Republican Party Chairwoman Kelli Ward Update – Audit Supporters May Want to Lower Expectations in Advance of Friday Senate Testimony


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 20, 2021 | Sundance | 458 Comments

There is a lot about this video update released today from the Arizona Republican Party that triggers alarm bells.  Apparently, the Arizona Republican Chairwoman Kelli Ward is not familiar with the process Maricopa County officials and State Senate leadership have agreed to.

Ms. Ward does not know what role the arbiter, mediator or “special master” will play in selecting the group who will provide the Senate with details of the router and splunk logs.  Nor is Ms. Ward aware of the ideology, motives and intents of former congressman John Shadegg who has been selected as the “special master” in charge of fulfilling the senate request(s).


John Shadegg was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1994, serving 16 years before his retirement in 2010 as the Tea Party wave moved in.  Shadegg was a close professional ally of Senator John McCain and currently remains close friends with Cindy McCain.  In the typical mindset of the ‘Never Trump’ GOPe , “Mr. Shadegg, in an interview, said party leaders’ crusade against illegal immigration had damaged Republicans statewide and hurt their chances of drawing the growing body of Hispanic voters.”

A lawyer with offices in Phoenix and Washington DC, John Shadegg is a big time open-border and immigration amnesty activist, completely allied with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Business Roundtable.  Shadegg is most certainly aligned to protect the interests of the corrupt cocktail class that runs Maricopa County elections.

Riptide in the World Economy


Armstrong Economics Blog/Understanding Cycles Re-Posted Sep 20, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT: Marty, I think the storms are creating dangerous rip currents that just suck swimmers out to sea here in Jersey. Never hear about that in Florida. I guess that and taxes are what made you leave. LOL

DK

REPLY: Actually, I was caught in one when I was a teenager. My uncle was perhaps 15 feet from me and the harder I swarm I was just standing still. Suddenly, the current shifted and I could move forward. It was not a great feeling and it was inv visible. There was a sand bar I was trying to walk to and was caught in a riptide between shore and that sand bar.

It was a valuable lesson in life. Sometimes we walk straight into the invisible which becomes life-threatening. Kind of like current events. I have been in the middle of this crowd, but I never expect that they would actually get this going in their personal direction so swiftly. It is one thing to forecast what the model says like the commodity boom post-2020 and the move toward authoritarianism. But to live through it is another thing altogether. It is fascinating to me to see it all laid out years in advance and then it unfolds according to plan. It is like that hidden riptide but in the world economy.

Rigging Elections


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Sep 20, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

There are allegations in California that Republicans found that they already allegedly voted Democrat, supporting Newsom. But this entire trend of rigging elections even goes back to the allegations that Pope Francis became pope to support this Socialist agenda at the perfect timing amidst similar allegations that the election was rigged. Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano has effectively called Francis an impostor. He has really altered the Catholic teachings dramatically and has been supporting the entire agenda of the World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab. For a pope to venture into economics, spouting out Marxism, a theory that was atheist, makes one’s head spin around as in “The Exorcist.”

What I can say is that Pope Francis has joined this “equality” of material wealth as opposed to equality of human rights, which is in direct violation of the Ten Commandments. It does seem very strange for Pope Francis to constantly come out supporting this Gates/Schwab agenda that has nothing to do with religion.

The entire communist revolution seized all the churches and converted them into museums of atheism. The fact that Pope Francis has been preaching “equality” on a material level has many observing that he has abandoned the purpose of the salvation of the soul for the Marxist view of “equality” of materialism.

So was the election of the pope also rigged? Who knows. But what is clear is that this agenda would NEVER have been possible without removing Trump, for they needed the United States to support this agenda. In all of my discussions over decades, the view was that communism ONLY failed because they did not have the United States and Europe. If the entire world was Communist, then somehow Marx would have been vindicated.

Elections have been rigged for centuries. Even in the first Democracy, they attacked Pericles and banished him. During the elections in Rome of the Senate of 53 BC, only the elite voted. Interest rates DOUBLED because people were borrowing so much to fund bribes to rig the election. Another example is Sadam Hussein, who was also elected all the time.

We have all heard of redrawing voting lines to rig elections. Gerrymandering is a practice intended to establish an unfair political advantage for a particular party by manipulating the boundaries of electoral districts. This corruption was named after Elbridge Gerry, who was engaging in this corruption from the very start of the United States election process. As they say, where there is a WILL, there is also a WAY to make it happen. Those who deny that the election of 2020 was rigged and call it a Trump conspiracy are total fools. There are corrupt antics in EVERY election. The question has always been whether it was enough to change the outcome. To pretend that all elections are fair is simply the words of a complete fool.

What has emerged is simply using health and climate change to support a new dictatorship to achieve “equality” once again. If one person can cut your lawn and another is a brain surgeon, should they earn the same when 10,000 people could cut the lawn compared to one person who could be a brain surgeon?

Throughout history, such totalitarian regimes have always led to bloodshed, and they have always been overthrown by force, for, without human incentive, an economy cannot survive. No matter how many times this has been attempted throughout history, it always fails because it goes against human nature.

The Only People Wearing Masks At the Emmys Were Servants


Posted originally on the Conservative tree house on September 19, 2021 | Sundance | 99 Comments

Your children and grandchildren cannot eat in a public school cafeteria without wearing a mask and remaining socially distant; so sayeth the rule-makers.

However, proving once again that masks and social distancing are a theater of social construct that does not apply to the self-proclaimed elites, the only people wearing masks at the Hollywood Emmy awards tonight were the servants.

.

It’s not hypocrisy really.  The reality is the COVID-19 rules are based on perpetrating a ruse, a total and utter fraud.   They don’t believe their own message; because they know the rules they espouse to support do not apply to them.

Take away their pool cleaners, laundry service providers, lawn care workers, chauffeurs, gardeners, nannies and staff… and watch how quickly these same people will dispatch those rules. The comfortable existence within this “polite society” is dependent on the scruff neck working class, the dirty fingernail folk who know what Lava soap feels like, and the industrious service sector workforce who fulfill the needs of those who hold out their pinky fingers when they drink from a glass.

If those who are forced to live under a distinctly separate set of rules stop fulfilling the needs of the ‘betters’, guess what happens?  If there’s something we know about this crew – it’s how their hubris is their blindspot.  They can never think clearly through the details of their dictates, because they have never operated/lived in the place where the outcomes of those dictates surface. They make rules that are never implemented within their own tribe; this fact makes them extremely vulnerable.

Pushed far enough, decisions are reached…
