QUESTION #1: It has become impossible to buy houses between $300-$500,000 in the Orlando area. From a realtor, he said that Blackrock is buying everything and they rely on a famous forecaster who said real estate is the only way to earn income. He said he heard it was someone in Florida. Is that you?
HP
QUESTION #2: Is Vanguard and Blackrock part of the great reset fraud?
SB
QUESTION #3: With the revelation of Blackrock buying up single family homes and making homeownership and rentals unaffordable, what is the average person to do? My son and his family and my husband and I were getting ready to purchase homes to settle down in but have now been priced out of most markets and rentals are also hard to come by that we can afford. We live in California but are wanting to get out of Dodge. Sharon
ANSWER: I am not a liberty to say who is and who is not our client. What I can confirm is that Blackrock has bought more than 20,000 homes in Florida under $500K. They are buying for cash and this is the result of artificially low interest rates. Central banks have created a disincentive for buying government bonds. This is going to come to a head and we will see interest rates rise because big money is looking at the return on renting out homes rather than investing in bonds.
This is not part of the Great Reset in saying you will own nothing. This is the shift from Public to Private. You cannot artificially lower interest rates to absurd levels under real risk and then expect them to remain there indefinitely when these pension and investment funds need higher returns. The good news to this trend is that it is resulting in the institutionalizing of the real estate market which is far better than the last attempt by creating mortgage-backed securities.
Socrates covers real estate around the world which has been part of our Institutional services. We have made this available to all levels of subscribers. We do have this broken down per state in the USA. We will be adding that to the general system because of the impact of this shifting from Public to Private in capital investment.
QUESTION: Good Morning, If we take the statement “History repeats because human nature never changes” it would suggest that the human nature cycle will never reverse. That in itself does not track. If everything is like a pendulum, shouldn’t it swing back around to where human nature can and will change? And a lesser 2nd question to that end, if human nature did change how would that affect Socrates’ forecasts 🙂 ?
GM
ANSWER: Human nature will never change insofar as we all have personal feelings — we can love or hate. That said, we are also influenced by mob behavior. The experiments of Stanley Milgram show that people would torture another if ordered to do so. He called his discovery, Obedience to Authority.
That said, society swings back and further between public & private confidence. People canceling anyone who has ever said anything, even 30 years ago, is the swing of the pendulum excessively to the left. The swing is based upon the “sheep” who can be herded and they will move back and forth depending upon their influence. That does not negate that we still have within human nature the battle between good and evil. Therefore, every government in history has collapsed because human nature swings back and forth.
Socrates is NOT HARD-CODED to follow some specific predetermined outcome. It adapts to the changes in trends. It is truly Artificial Intelligence, not some neural net or expert system that looks up the predetermined answer. All I did was teach it how TO ANALYZE and then set it loose on the world. This is a very important point. I was interested in discovering how the world functions. I did not create a program to merely report what I wanted it to say — I am not the government!
This is the real deal. It has taught me a lot in life.
Houston Methodist Hospital is telling employees that if they refuse to take the vaccine, they will be fired. Now 117 employees have joined a lawsuit against the hospital, and they are saying that the hospital is trying to force people to take an experimental vaccine. Instead, the dictatorial hospital management is comparing it to the flu vaccine and refuses to acknowledge that there is even a difference. Quite frankly, this does not look like a hospital you should allow a family member to even enter. They obviously have no respect for human rights. How can the protests against restrictions against abortions be covered under the right of privacy but not this experimental vaccine?
Roe vWade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), was a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in which the Court ruled that the Constitution of the United States protects a pregnant woman’s liberty to choose to have an abortion without excessive government restriction. Understanding the foundation of Roe v Wade and why it cannot be overturned without jeopardizing our right to privacy in the face of this contrived pandemic is critical. In 1965, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a law banning the distribution of birth control to married couples, ruling that the law violated their implied right to privacy under the U.S. Constitution, GRISWOLD v. CONNECTICUT, 381 U.S. 479 (1965). How do you enforce that a married couple illegally used a condom during sex? Does an FBI agency have to watch? And in 1972, the Supreme Court struck down a law prohibiting the distribution of contraceptives to unmarried adults. Again, there is no way to enforce such laws without a government agent observing every sexual act.
To overturn Roe v Wade would also mean that the government can order you to take vaccines that violate your religion and even alter your DNA. We must be very careful about overruling Roe v Wade for to do so that would result in the termination of the right to privacy would sweep through everything, and we all could then be subject to tyrannical decrees in the name of public health. Do you really want to give people like Fauci supreme power to imprison you or accept whatever he declares is in the public interest?
Bill Gates wanted to know Melinda’s IQ before he married her. Under Gates, the government could just as easily impose an IQ test and determine you are not qualified to have children — in the public interest, of course. Gates has already funded remote control birth-control by implanting chips into women. He is obsessed with population control.
I am not making up wild conspiracy theories here. The U.S. Supreme Court actually upheld the eugenics views in Buck v. Bell, 274 U.S. 200 (1927), written by Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., that actually ruled that a state statute permitting compulsory sterilization of the unfit, including the intellectually disabled, “for the protection and health of the state” did not violate the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.
The Supreme Court actually wrote: “Three generations of imbeciles are enough.” The Supreme Court has never expressly overturned Buck v. Bell, 274 U.S. 200 (1927). This case has not been overturned, but if it were challenged, then the same right to privacy from which Roe v Wade stands would come into play. Overturn that case, and a lot more tyranny will follow. The only possible way to overturn Roe v Wade must involve the due process right to life and liberty without somehow overturning the right to privacy. That can be a real Pandora’s Box.
The old saying, “Be careful what you wish for!” comes to mind. I would NOT be in favor of overturning Roe v Wade by the Supreme Court for fear that somehow we lose the right to privacy. Those that want to eliminate abortion based on their religious views are not that dissimilar to those who wanted to end slavery on the same human rights platform. Perhaps we need a Constitutional Amendment that guarantees the Right to Privacy in explicit terms, for this is a much bigger issue than just abortion. These vaccines are showing the same argument — IF IT’S NOT YOUR BODY, IT’S NOT YOUR CHOICE.

Tucker Carlson did an extensive monologue and interview last night as a review of the January 6th DC protest while contrast against the likelihood of FBI organization and coordination. Many are calling this a brave outline because Carlson will likely face backlash for the overview. As CTH has noted often, the politicization of the U.S. intelligence apparatus is the biggest threat to our constitutional republic. In this segment Carlson arrives at the same conclusion.
Carlson used a Revolver article (SEE HERE) by Darren Beattie as the framework for the discussion. The additional examples Carlson uses are familiar to CTH readers as we have used them before to highlight how politically corrupt the FBI has become. For those who missed the segment it is in the first 15 minutes of the video below (likely will not last long).
Unfortunately, and completely understandably, due to the content being outlined both Carlson and Beattie need to couch their words carefully. However, CTH does not.
Often when discussion of these types of issues takes place, so much time is exhausted presenting material in order to defend yourself from attacks by those who wish to block the discussion. CTH has taken a position that our library of evidence is enough to stand alone, as a consequence we have long passed the point of needing to present endless examples to backstop the analysis. Quite simply it makes the research articles repetitive and too lengthy.
Avoiding the pitfalls of exhaustive repetition for points that are, by now, brutally obvious; and considering the urgency in the matters being discussed, it’s worth just accepting a few baselines as we move forward.
In the bigger picture anyone with intellectual honesty would admit it is impossible for Antifa to exist if the DOJ and FBI were functioning as a healthy part of the national law enforcement system. A few dozen arrests for transparently obvious violence, combined with a few RICO cases against the financial systems that support Antifa and the entire violent group essentially disappears. Therefore, it is worth just accepting the obvious…. The DOJ and FBI are part of the support structure that allows political violence to exist.
I would personally take it (confidently) a step further and say: Antifa simply could not exist without the explicit support of the DOJ/FBI. Sometimes that support comes in the way of willful blindness or ignoring their activity. Regardless of each granular example, the fact remains – both the DOJ and FBI do absolutely nothing to eliminate a threat to the domestic tranquility, even when specific individuals carry out extreme violent acts with public visibility and reckless abandon.
Another brutally obvious issue was the transparency of the 2020 election fraud in seven key regions. Do you really think the DNC and political operative in/around those corrupt cities and regions would carry out such transparently obvious fraud if they didn’t feel confident the DOJ/FBI would look the other way?
We live in this bizarro world where people debate the hypocrisy of a “dual justice system”, without ever accepting that it is not hypocrisy – it is by design. The standards are a feature, not a flaw.
Actual, real-life, Domestic Violent Extremists called Black Lives Matter and Antifa, tried to burn Washington DC in the summer of 2020. Not a single arrest. Not one. Not a single public tweet about “help us find those arsonists who attempted to burn St. John’s church”. Nothing.
The DOJ and FBI willfully and purposefully turn a blind eye to literal acts of domestic violence, shootings, beatings, arson, murder, riots and chaos -even attacks on federal buildings- and do nothing. NOTHING.
Just like how federal contractors were/are purposefully given the keys to NSA/FBI databases to exploit and extract information for political targeting, so too is Antifa essentially operating as a federal contractor for domestic violence.
In essence, the FBI is Antifa…. and before that the FBI was Occupy…. and before that the FBI was supporting the 2007 SEIU/AFSCME political thugs. Go ahead and prove me wrong, but you better bring receipts; because there is a mountain of historical evidence to support my position.
Russia has a state police that CNN, the New York Times and Washington Post likes to talk about all the time as a negative attribute to the former communist bloc. However, The United States has the FBI. Go ahead and tell me the difference between Russian “state police”, and the FBI as U.S. “state police“?
The FBI controls who gets security clearances for key positions in the U.S. government, by controlling the investigations to support the application. Knowing what you know now about how the FBI operates, don’t you think the FBI use that authority as a filtering tool against any entity who would disrupt or dismantle their power structure?
If you start from the framework that the FBI as an institution is a political operation intent on protecting the currently corrupt systems that function as weapons within the United States government, then of course they would organize, coordinate and conduct subversive operations against groups and individuals they perceive as their enemy.
The largest recent example was their operation(s) against presidential candidate Donald Trump. That campaign included 50 FBI agents later assigned to the Weissmann/Mueller operation to create an obstruction case against President Trump in order to remove him from office. That’s FIFTY FBI agents participating in the Mueller operation. Not a single one of those fifty FBI agents ever spoke out EVEN AFTER all evidence surfaced about how the FBI was manipulating the evidence inside the investigation itself. [Example: Chris Steele’s primary sub-source refuting the Steele dossier to the investigative agents, yet they still continued with the Title-1 surveillance warrant, FISA renewals, against Carter Page.]
The FBI is a corrupt ideological institution that targets their political opposition. Of course the FBI planned, organized, assisted and in some ways carried out the January 6th operation to create the exact narrative currently being used to grant them more authority.
Do you really think the FBI would be publicly behaving like this if they were not a politically ideological institution?

In a follow-up to her brave, live, on-air reporting yesterday, Fox26 Journalist Ivory Hecker provides Project Veritas with evidence of Fox News corporate bosses giving instructions about how to frame stories to follow the ideological agenda of the outlet. [Video Below]
[HOUSTON, TX – June 15, 2021] Project Veritas released a new video today featuring a sit-down interview with recently-suspended Fox 26 reporter, Ivory Hecker, who blew the whistle on her own network for what she says are acts of deception. She claims the station’s editorial decisions are an affront to honest journalism.
Hecker, who serves as a dayside reporter primarily for the five and six o’clock news, came forward to Project Veritas with recordings of her colleagues and superiors showing a pattern of “censorship” on COVID-19 and Bitcoin-related stories. She also highlighted a pattern of submission among the local affiliate’s leadership to Fox’s corporate interests, rather than acting in the interest of transparency with its viewers.
“Viewers are being deceived about some of the things that are going on,” Hecker told Veritas. (read more)

Wendy Rogers, State Senator representing Arizona’s 6th legislative district, gives an interview to One America News on the status of the Maricopa County ballot audit and the propaganda that is being launched against their efforts. As Representative Rogers notes the Arizona Senate only has a one vote margin in favor of Republicans, and it is that slim margin that supports the ongoing verification of the election integrity.
OAN reporter Natalie Harp starts the video [Rumble link Here] by outlining the background issues created by the Biden administration’s effort to fight against election audits.
,
Additionally, Bernard Kerik gives a review from his recent visit to the audit facility:
[…] The Democrats aren’t “just” afraid of the outcome – but they’re afraid that the audit results will be irrefutable and unimpeachable. They know that their efforts to discredit the audit process in Arizona will not stand up to scrutiny and here’s why.
The Arizona audit is being run impeccably, utilizing security and surveillance procedures with a longstanding track record of effectiveness. To say that I was impressed after viewing the audit process for myself would be a massive understatement. (read more)

There are a lot of people referencing a Jon Stewart clip from last night and pondering if he went off script in identifying the Wuhan Bio-lab as the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus that created the COVID pandemic. Many more are giving him credit for stating the brutally obvious to a majority leftist audience; as if he is on the cutting edge of revolutionary thought amid a tribe that is antithetical to anything against their politics.
Let me be clear, Stewart is a full-throated moonbat leader of the worst kind. Factually, Jon Stewart, the intellectual epicenter of the Moonbat tribe, is even worse than hypocritical. Stewart was one of the key cultural marxists who was pushing the COVID panic to support the ideological and political objectives of those who control the sheeple Moonbat tribe. [Video at 02:50]
Jon Stewart is not being a truth-teller. He is however, living out the creed of Cultural Marxists: ‘Retain the lie until it has exhausted its usefulness; then -in the face of irrefutable evidence- instead of acknowledging the lies, simply reverse positions, attempt to retain credibility and deny ever participating in the lie‘.
THAT’s what liars do; and Hollywood liars do it because they are intent on molding society and cultural outlooks.
THAT’s why the outcome of their toxic behavior is called “cultural Marxism.”
Stewart lives a life of tribal elitism amid an ideological crew that surrounds every facet of his life. His entire sense of self is created by far-leftist ideology. He parties with elitist moonbats, he hangs out with elitist moonbats; lives, works, eats and breathes amid the system of far-left advancement of ideology.
Stewart was Barack Obama’s biggest advocate and he criticized, marginalized and ridiculed anyone who was intellectually honest about the destruction of the social fabric created as an outcome of their infected racist, collectivist and Marxist thinking.
The video segment doesn’t reflect Jon Stewart as a honest broker any more than the few times when Bill Maher calls out the tribe for the miserable consequences of Wokeism. These creeps rely on their victims granting them the benefit of doubt.
None of these insufferable snarkists deserve an ounce of credit for admitting the fraud when the lie has collapsed around them and they stand atop the rubble of outcome…

The coordination of narrative engineering across all agencies of the U.S. government is quite remarkable. Today Attorney General Merrick Garland announced that Deputy AG Lisa Monaco (Obama crew) will lead a “whole of government” effort to label any political opposition to the Biden regime as “domestic terrorists”.
To facilitate that objective, Garland announced that DAG Monaco is reconstituting “the domestic terrorism executive committee“, an investigative agency process used in the aftermath of the Oklahoma bombing in 1995. Additionally, Garland is noting the January 6th Capitol Hill protest was the current equivalent of the 1995 bombing that killed 168 people and injured 680. The Domestic Terrorism committee, led by Monaco, will focus their efforts at ensuring the center of U.S. government is never again put at risk.
You only need to watch the first 4 minutes of the video below to see the framework of the narrative being deployed. Garland’s statements align with Nancy Pelosi’s legislative demand to weaponize a January 6th Commission for the same political intents and purposes. [White House Announcement Here]
As announced the Biden administration will use the opportunity of the protest against the 2020 election outcome to set into place various multi-agency monitoring systems to “identify threats”, “monitor behaviors” and “conduct surveillance” on all Americans, in effort to identify the “domestic extremists”. This, they hope, will help eliminate any political push-back in the upcoming 2022 mid-term election.
The purpose of this announcement should be crystal clear to everyone. We discussed and outlined the background previously. {Go Deep 1} and {Go Deep Two}
In the background of these maneuvers Big Tech and Corporate Media have been instructed to push the “domestic extremist” narrative; and any truth-tellers are considered subversive, ie. against the interests of the U.S. government.
The January 6th DC protest is being used as evidence for that narrative. Deplatforming, censorship and ultimately control of voices who would warn of the larger issues continues daily.
Let me be very clear… stop and hear the drums… Something is about to happen. Approximately 100 million American voters are considered dissidents now.
WHITE HOUSE – […] Under Federal law, “domestic terrorism” is defined as “activities that involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State; appear to be intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population, to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion, or to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.”
The review was rooted in an expert assessment of the domestic terrorism threat provided by the intelligence and law enforcement communities. An unclassified summary of that assessment was released in March so the public could see the key findings. It found that the two most lethal elements of today’s domestic terrorism threat are (1) racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists who advocate for the superiority of the white race and (2) anti-government or anti-authority violent extremists, such as militia violent extremists.
To develop a government-wide strategy to counter domestic terrorists, the Biden Administration consulted extensively with a wide array of experts across the U.S. Government as well as with leaders in Congress, state and local governments, academia, civil society, religious communities, and foreign governments. Throughout the process, we embraced the protection of civil rights and civil liberties as a national security imperative. The strategy we are releasing today is carefully tailored to address violence and reduce the factors that lead to violence, threaten public safety, and infringe on the free expression of ideas. It is organized around four pillars – the core elements of how the Biden Administration will improve the U.S. Government’s response to this persistent, evolving, and lethal threat to our people, our democracy, and our national security:
[…] Drawing on the expertise of a variety of departments and agencies, the U.S. Government has revamped support to community partners who can help to prevent individuals from ever reaching the point of committing terrorist violence. The U.S. Government will strengthen domestic terrorism prevention resourcesand services. For the first time, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has designated “Domestic Violent Extremism” as a National Priority Area within the Department’s Homeland Security Grant Program, which means that over $77 million will be allocated to state, local, tribal, and territorial partners to prevent, protect against, and respond to domestic violent extremism. DHS and FBI are working to strengthen local prevention, threat assessment, and threat management frameworks. The Department of Defense (DOD) is incorporating training for servicemembers separating or retiring from the military on potential targeting of those with military training by violent extremist actors. The U.S. Government will improve public awareness of federal resources to address concerning or threatening behavior before violence occurs.
The U.S. Government will augment its efforts to address online terrorist recruitment and mobilization to violence by domestic terrorists through increased information sharing with the technology sector and the creation of innovative ways to foster digital literacy and build resilience to recruitment and mobilization. The United States also recently joined the Christchurch Call to Action to Eliminate Terrorist and Violent Extremist Content Online, an international partnership between governments and technology companies that works to develop new multilateral solutions to eliminating terrorist content online while safeguarding the freedom of online expression.
[…] The work of Federal law enforcement as well as our state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement partners is critical to countering domestic terrorism. The U.S. Government will increase support to Federal, state, and local law enforcement in addressing domestic terrorism nationwide. U.S. Attorney’s Offices and FBI field offices across the country have formally made domestic terrorism a top priority and are tracking comprehensively domestic terrorism-related cases, reallocating or requesting appropriate funding and resources as needed to target the threat. That includes over $100 million in additional resources for DOJ, FBI, and DHS included in the President’s Fiscal Year 2022 Budget to ensure that the Federal Government has the analysts, investigators, prosecutors, and other personnel and resources it needs to thwart domestic terrorism and do justice when the law has been broken. State, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement will have access to increased intelligence sharing and training on domestic terrorism and associated threats. DOJ is closely examining whether new legislative authorities that balance safety and the protection of civil liberties are necessary and appropriate.
The U.S. Government is improving employee screening to enhance methods for identifying domestic terrorists who might pose insider threats. The Office of Personnel Management will consider updates to the forms used to apply for sensitive roles in the Federal Government that could assist investigators in identifying potential domestic terrorism threats. DOD, DOJ, and DHS are similarly pursuing efforts to ensure domestic terrorists are not employed within our military or law enforcement ranks and improve screening and vetting processes. Training and resources will be developed for state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement partners as well as sensitive private sector partners to enable them to enhance their own employee screening programs and prevent individuals who pose domestic terrorism threats from being placed in positions of trust.
[…] In implementing this strategy, and at the direction of President Biden, we will remain focused on addressing violence and reducing the threat of violence while vigilantly safeguarding peaceful expression of a wide range of views and freedom of political association. (read more)
