Singer Neil Young was so disgruntled by Joe Rogan’s podcast that he gave Spotify an ultimatum. “I am doing this because Spotify is spreading fake information about vaccines – potentially causing death to those who believe the disinformation being spread by them,” Young wrote. “They can have Rogan or Young. Not both.” Young essentially martyred himself as he knew that this was an easy decision for Spotify. Spotify signed a $100 million deal in 2020 for exclusive rights to stream “The Joe Rogan Experience,” which attracts around 11 million viewers per episode. It is currently the most listened to podcast on the streaming service.
Spotify responded to Young: “We want all the world’s music and audio content to be available to Spotify users. With that comes great responsibility in balancing both safety for listeners and freedom for creators. We have detailed content policies in place and we’ve removed over 20,000 podcast episodes related to COVID-19 since the start of the pandemic. We regret Neil’s decision to remove his music from Spotify, but hope to welcome him back soon.”
The publicity stunt ended as intended. It is to be seen if other artists will martyr themselves as well. Perhaps Neil will allow VAERS to use his hit song as its theme song.

During his remarks today in Texas, President Donald Trump gave a shout out to the patriotic Canadian truckers and the Freedom Convoy. {Direct Rumble Link}
“There are far more of us, than they are of them. It’s true. The Canadian Truckers, you’ve been reading about it, who are resisting, bravely, these lawless mandates and doing more to defend American freedom than our own leaders by far. We want those great Canadian truckers to know that we are with them all the way; they are, they’ve really shown something.” ~ President Donald Trump

The state of Arizona saw $1.23 billion in sales after legalizing recreational marijuana one year ago. This figure does not include December’s final reporting. Medical marijuana accounted for $703 million in purchases while recreational produced $528 million. The state will collect over $196 million on those earnings, with a good percentage going to education.
The Marijuana Excise Tax will contribute $92.9 million to community colleges and health departments, while $7.3 million will go toward an education sales tax. “Rarely does an industry produce over $1.2 billion in revenue in its first year. This number shows that the legalization of cannabis is something Arizonans believe strongly in and the many benefits it contributes to the state’s economy,” Samuel Richard, the executive director of the Arizona Dispensaries Association, said in a press release.
Canada has long recognized the lucrative venture of cannabis, as have numerous US states. However, the US still deems marijuana as a schedule 1 narcotic on par with drugs such as heroin and crystal meth. This means that they consider marijuana to have no medical properties, despite numerous studies stating otherwise. Addictive narcotics, promoted and profited by Big Pharma, are not considered schedule 1.
Some estimates claim that 40,000 people are currently serving time in US prisons and jails for marijuana-related offenses. In 2019, US authorities arrested 350,149 people for possessing marijuana. Of those arrested, 24% were black. An increasing number of politicians are agreeing with the public who typically votes in favor of decriminalization whenever it makes the ballot. Texas Governor Abbott, who is not in favor of complete legalization, concluded “prison and jail is a place for dangerous criminals who may harm others, and small possession of marijuana is not the type of violation that we want to stockpile jails with.”
Decriminalization was another campaign lie provided by the Biden Administration. Vice President Kamala Harris stated that reform simply was not a priority for them. Will he reuse this promise to save his bottom-of-the-barrel approval rating? Thousands are sitting in jail awaiting an answer.
The installed White House occupant was transported by airplane to Pennsylvania today so he could yell at the snow for being cold.
According to national media reports, he successfully completed his mission, was given a pudding cup and subsequently returned to the basement. WATCH:
Angry man wasn’t yelling the entire time, there was a moment when he did that creepy whisper voice thing again.
The same people who told us to appreciate saving $0.16 on our July 4th BBQs last summer are now taking the official position there is no massive food inflation. [DATA HERE]
Those skyrocketing prices you think you see at the grocery store are not real. Those announcements of forecasted price increases by the food producers, well, those are not real either. So sayeth the United States Dept of Agriculture (USDA).
In their update to the USDA pricing forecast and analysis dated January 25, 2022, the USDA claims: “2021 retail food price inflation continued at same pace as 2020 but varied among food categories.” Oh, but it gets even more stupid:
“USDA, Economic Research Service (ERS) researchers project that prices for food-at-home, or food purchased typically from grocery stores or other food stores, will increase between 1.5 and 2.5 percent in 2022, lower than the 3.5-percent increase that occurred in both 2020 and 2021. Forecasts for all food categories for 2022 are available in ERS’s monthly Food Price Outlook data product, updated January 25, 2022.” (link)
If there was ever an argument that every single institution in the U.S. government was corrupt, manipulative and ideologically bent, this claim by the USDA would be a case study in the supportive evidence.
Apparently, if you are to follow the outlook of the USDA – and reconcile their institutional hypocrisy, Joe Biden increased the rate of food stamp assistance by 25 percent for some unknown reason. Because according to the Dept of Agriculture, “Retail food prices increased by a mere 3.5 percent in 2021, equal to the rate in 2020.”
3.5% ?
You just cannot make this up.
Beef has doubled in price. Bacon has gone up by 30% in the last quarter. Milk has gone up by 40% in the past two months. Fish, eggs and poultry are between 30 to 60% higher than a year ago. Fresh fruits and vegetables still rising in price. Food producers have announced price increases in products from 8% to 60% in the next few months. Beverages and sports drinks are rising 20% beginning in March. Kraft Foods announced processed meat (lunchmeat) price increases up to 30% in a few weeks. However, according to the USDA, these are not the droids you are looking for.
We are living in a parallel universe, a true state of propaganda pushed by the institutions of government.
Count all the people with COVID as having died from COVID to maintain the fear. Hide the ships further offshore, and the port backlog disappears. Don’t count the imported goods, and our domestic economic activity is great. Ignore the prices at the grocery store, and there is no food inflation…
It would be funny if the reality of our situation was not so serious.

The dynamic between the Joe Biden administration and the government of Ukraine is very interesting and thoroughly corrupt. President Volodymyr Zelensky is trying to avoid being the 2022 version of Libyan President Muammar Gadaffi, circa 2011.
Meanwhile, the entirety of the corrupt and manipulative Joe Biden administration, the U.S. State Department, the CIA, the Pentagon and the U.S. Congress are all saying, “Nice country you got there, it’d be a shame if something happened to it“, while simultaneously poking the Russian bear to attack. Biden and the deepest state want them their proxy war, and they will not be denied.
Following a phone call last night where Zelensky told Biden to stop telling everyone the Russians were going to attack, a conversation the Biden administration desperately is trying to hide from the American people, Zelensky smartly calls a media press conference so the global media can see him telling Biden, in essence, to ‘chill the hell out’.
Full credit to Euronews who is being an honest broker about the dynamics at play. This is a great
Given the nature of how corrupt the U.S. administration is on a globalist scale; and considering that Biden Inc, which is really the Hillary Clinton foreign policy establishment, would give Zelensky the full Gaddafi treatment if it helped them gain wealth, power and influence; it really would be in Ukraine’s best interest for Zelensky to open a dialogue with Vladimir Putin.
Right now, on a geopolitical scale, Volodymyr Zelensky is more akin to Kim Jong-un in North Korea trying NOT TO be forced into a relationship with China. Ukraine is faced with the United States controlling them or embracing a closer relationship with Russia who would want to control them. It’s a hot mess of geopolitical manipulation on a mafioso scale.
If Zelensky does not allow himself to be a proxy for the United States in Europe, the people who control U.S. policy will create a war with Russia to get rid of him. Biden is really a stammering stupid doofus and tool of the deep state, who isn’t strong enough to battle his own corrupt policy team; and Biden Inc, which includes his entire family, is paid by the DC manipulators to shut-up and just read.
Zelensky has to pretend like Biden represents the U.S. interests, while knowing Biden doesn’t have any control over U.S. policy.
The war mongering crew deep in the U.S. government are in control. The Fourth Branch of the U.S. government and the national security apparatus are in full operational control over the dynamic. Zelensky is stuck between Russia and the U.S. Deep State. Quite frankly, he’d be better off embracing Vladimir Putin and coming to terms.
However, the problem is Zelensky doesn’t want to end up being Ukraine to Russia like North Korea is to China.
If Zelensky tells Biden to go spit, I mean really calls this baby ugly as it needs to be called, then the U.S. system (writ large) will withdraw any support or assistance for Ukraine, and Russia will absorb his country quickly. That’s the unfortunate dynamic.
Zelensky wants to stop being a hostage to the West by joining NATO. However, Russia will not allow a formal NATO relationship.
It’s a mess.
My advice to President Zelensky would be to ask Hungary or Poland to host discussions between himself and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Hopefully last year’s warning gave all enough time: …”By the time we get to Superbowl Sunday, the price of ¹chicken wings is going to bring sticker shock to those who have not prepared.” (link)
[NOTE: ¹More chicken wings are purchased in the days leading up to the Superbowl than any other time of year.]
