There it is – EU President Says Number One Challenge for Global Control Systems in Next Two Years is to Control Information and Speech


Posted originally on the CTH on January 16, 2024 | Sundance

In her keynote address at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen reaffirmed Europe’s unwavering support for Ukraine in the face of Russia’s invasion. However, in the open admission of priority, President Von der Leyen declares the #1 priority of the corporations who run the WEF and world of politics, must be control of speech and information against their interests.

She goes on to note that political dissent, what she calls “polarization within our societies” must be controlled, as the ability of individuals and groups to assemble against the WEF plan remains a constant threat to the fulfillment of the agenda.  [Insert a picture of dissident enemy #1, Donald Trump, here] Yes, you do not need to interpret their intent, you only need to listen to their words and accept them. WATCH (first two minutes):

“There is no such thing as “disinformation” or “misinformation” or “malinformation”.  There is only information.  There is information you accept and information you do not accept.  You were not born with a requirement to believe everything you are told; rather, you were born with a brain that allows you to process the information you receive and make independent decisions.”  ~ Sundance

The Year from Political Hell

Political Hell

QUESTION: Can you elaborate on 2024 being the year from hell with elections everywhere? We all know about Trump and Putin. Is the rest of the world going nuts as well?

ANSWER: Oh, I would say that is a fair statement about the entire world. Pakistan is perhaps the role model for Biden. The general election has been postponed until February – or perhaps later. Imran Khan, a former president they put in prison, has warned that the election risk there is just another political farce. Of course, the champion of freedom fighting for Democracy, the totally corrupt President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, was trying to imprison his opponent and his predecessor, Petro O. Poroshenko, and had the ultimate excuse – postponing all elections until he defeated Russia, which is not even possible.

It will be interesting to see if the EU starts to collapse. European Council President Charles Michel will run as a candidate for the European election in 2024. This will present a bit of  CRISIS to fill a top diplomatic position. EU leaders must then quickly appoint a successor for his vacated Council post or face a dilemma. Hungary takes over the rotating presidency of the Council in July. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has been fighting against creating World War III and this endless support of Ukraine, which is losing badly. Orban could fulfill the role of Council president if EU members do not quickly agree on a candidate. Given the conflict they have with Hungary, this is going to be a real test of the EU. February has been showing as a Panic Cycle, and May remains the big target.  This may be the real conflict for the EU.

Bangladesh is going through its tyranny as well. The voting took place amid a boycott by the main opposition. When we look at the country, the same tyranny is unfolding. Bangladesh is becoming a one-party state dominated by Sheikh Hasina for the 5th term. They are starting to call her the Iron Lady.

One of the key elections will be in Taiwan. Beware, January 13th could prove to be an unlucky day for an election that could impact the world. Lai Ching-te is the deputy to President Tsai Ing-wen and a fellow member of the independence-minded Democratic Progressive Party. He is leading in the polls right now. Lai is the candidate most likely to provoke tension with China, and the people seem to think the US will send troops to defend them at all costs. Indeed, China has named him the “destroyer of peace.” Looking at the Array, we had a double-Directional Change for 2024, and it appears to be a reversal of the uptrend into 2026.

In South Africa, the African National Congress will most likely lose its majority for the first time since apartheid ended. There have been rolling blackouts since 2007, which has increased ever since 2020.  This has boosted support for various movements proposing Cape independence since 2009.

The Ukrainian Financial Panic


Posted originally on Dec 31, 2023 By Martin Armstrong 

Time Men of Year Zelensky Hitler Stalin

I have warned that Zelensky will go down in history as the evil ruler he truly is. And for those who constantly want to pretend this is Russian propaganda, tell that to the 500,000 Ukrainian soldiers who are dead and all the broken homes Zelensky has left behind, along with the 8 to 10 million who have fled Ukraine. Worse still, he is making it a criminal act to flee the country and avoid his draft to justify the EU arresting Ukrainians and deporting them back to be sent to their death on the front lines.

The idea of ​​drafting another 500,000 Ukrainians to be sacrificed on this Neocon Altar for nothing more than a territorial grab of the Donbas is causing absolute panic sweeping the country. Zelensky’s penalties are to be introduced for those who refuse to comply. Ukraine’s financial system is on the brink of collapse. Our Ukrainian sources are reporting that there has been a run on ATMs in Ukraine. Apparently, Ukrainians have withdrawn about a billion dollars from their accounts in a single day! We are looking at a financial crisis unfolding in the Ukrainian banking and financial system thanks to Zelensky’s legislation intended to force conscription to raise another 500,000 people to be sent to the frontline. As part of this bill, Zelensky intends to isolate people who evade the draft by removing them from carrying out any financial transactions or selling property.

ECM Ukraine 8.6 R

As a result of Zelensky’s proposed law, Ukrainians are in a state of panic. They have been plundering their accounts and are now hoarding cash and abandoning the banks. Our model warns that Ukraine will NEVER succeed in this war, and it may no longer even survive as a nation-state post-2026. Indeed, 2026 is showing up on both the ECM for Ukraine as well as on the ECM based entirely on the beginning of this proxy war against Russia. Zelensky’s new law also lowered the age and introduced three months of basic training for 18 to 25-year-olds.

  • The conscription age is to be lowered from 27 to 25 years;
  • The introduction of basic three-months-long military training for all Ukrainian citizens aged 18 to 25 in every educational establishment;
  • The introduction of optional military service for persons aged under 25 who were not able to complete basic military training;

It does not matter how many Ukrainians Zelensky throws into this meat grinder. Ukraine will NEVER prevail over Russia. The West knew this would be the outcome. They were simply using Ukraine to weaken Russia for the kill, which they hoped would be delivered by NATO. That is why they are now prodding the Baltic states to wage war with Russia to justify NATO troops to engage Russia head-on. Financial support is waning because they know Ukraine is just cannon fodder.

Zelensky ECM
Zelenskyy Johnson

Zelensky is becoming perhaps the most hated Ukrainian leader to date. I would not put it past a coup unfolding with his assassination that they would probably try to blame on Putin. Many in the government now see that this has never been about protecting the Ukrainian people. Even the local Ukrainian Press published a story about how Boris Johnson came from England to kill any peace deal. This has been nothing about just sacrificing Ukrainians to weaken Russia.

When we compare the Ukrainian and Russian currencies, we can see that the critical climax of the Ukrainian financial crisis appears to be by March, which is the time of the Russian election. We may see this push to raise another 500,000 Ukrainians to be sent to the front lines as the driving force that coincides with the Russian election, whereas May 7th is the swearing-in date of the next term for the President of Russia.

Guess What Bill & Klaus?

Guess what – Bill & Klaus. I drove to the food store and stopped by a gasoline station to fill up my Porsche. You know what that’s like, Bill, since you have a 959. Well, someone was in an accident and took down a pole that had fiber-optic connections to the internet. The whole area was down. OMG, I had to pay in cash or no gas risking I might die from handling money and in desperate need of your vaccine which is like playing Russian Roulette. Can you imagine how primitive it was?

What if you had to pay cash to fill up your private jet?

Separatist Movement Growing Also in Australia

COMMENT:  I would love a report on Australia/NZ as well. Australia has a separatist movement – WA is sick of paying the most GST taxes to prop up other States, and actively talks of separating. NT & SA would align, this is historical too. Probably Vic & Tas amalgamate. And people would say this would not happen, but NSW & Qld come together (NSW used to incorporate the whole of Qld) and they have Rugby in common, not Aussie Rules. Interesting, maybe all current Commonwealth countries and the USA split. Regards from down under!

MAA Ozy No Swimming

REPLY: As you know, I have even lived in Sydney for a stint. I went up to Kakadu and hired a guide who was like Crocodile Dundee. We lived off the land, swam with freshwater crocs, and caught Baramundy from the South Allegator River while fighting off crocs who were looking to eat us for dinner. I have been to every nook and cranny in Australia when Ozies have never gone; just as few Americans visit the Liberty Bell if they live within 10 miles of it.

So, I am very well aware of the stark differences in attitudes and culture between the South, North, and the West. The same is true between North & South in the USA, Germany, Italy, Britain, and Ireland, just to mention a few. In places like Spain and Canada, it tends to be East vs. West. The entire Ukrainian war is all about the Minsk Agreement that was supposed to allow the people of the Donbas to vote on their separation from the Ukrainians who outright hate Russian-speaking Ukrainians. That too, is a separatist movement.

This separatist movement is rising exponentially. It is indeed the turmoil we have, for it will be 86 years (10 x 8.6) from the formation of the IMF, World Bank, and this globalist agenda by 2032.

Let’s Not Dance to Their Tunes – Orban Exposes Globalists Grip on EU


Posted originally on Nov 22, 2023 By Martin Armstrong

Prime Minister Viktor Orban of Hungary wants the people to know that the European Union is controlled by the globalists. His government has begun a campaign to explain this message, placing billboards depicting European Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen with Open Society Foundations heir Alex Soros. “Let’s not dance to their tunes,” one billboard stated.

There are also signs showing Open Society found George Soros with Jean-Claude Juncker, showing that the globalists have had their grip on the European Union since its creation. European Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen is allegedly unphased by the advertisements, for she knows they are true. Alex Soros proudly declared that he is more political than his father and plans to influence worldwide governments with billions in funding.

Orban does not want to leave the EU, but he does want to change the organization and insists other European countries “must say no to the current Europe model built in Brussels.” Orban has been in a quarrel with the EU after they blocked billions in euros due to his administration’s policies. Orban does not want to send additional aid to Ukraine, insisting the money is needed at home. Furthermore, he opposes inviting Ukraine to join the EU. “Correcting the mistaken promise (by Brussels) to start talks (with Ukraine about EU membership) will also be our task, as Ukraine is light years away from the EU now,” Orban said.

The globalists have been in control of the European Union since its creation. The entire premise of the euro was to mesh all Europeans nations together in the first step toward creating a one-world government and ending wars. Now we have unelected officials speaking on behalf of 27 countries and promoting values that do not align with individual countries. “We will resist the crazy ideas of Brussels bureaucrats, the migrants’ invasion, the gender propaganda, and we will resist the illusions over the war (in Ukraine) and Ukraine’s unprepared EU membership,” Orban stated.

Pentagon Urges Congress to Approve MORE Aid for Ukraine


Armstrong Economics Blog/War Re-Posted Oct 4, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Joe Biden’s slip of the tongue about the US being short on ammo is factual. The Pentagon has sounded the alarm that they are running low on funding to replace the weapons gifted to Ukraine. Coincidentally, their warning comes immediately after Congress agreed to forego adding Ukrainian aid to the budget to prevent a shutdown. Now, did we really think they would stop sending funding?

After the budget was approved, Biden came out and said that the US must continue funding Ukraine by any means necessary. “We cannot under any circumstances allow America’s support for Ukraine to be interrupted,” Biden said. “We have time, not much time, and there’s an overwhelming sense of urgency.”

Pentagon Comptroller Michael McCord admitted that there is only $1.6 billion in funding from the $25.9 billion budget that Congress approved for Ukraine. Now, this is the very same Pentagon that has never once passed an audit. America’s favorite money laundering service admitted in June that they misplaced $6.2 billion destined for Ukraine. The Pentagon has managed to “misplace” TRILLIONS in taxpayer dollars over the years, and yet, they have never been expected to pass an audit.

The Pentagon said that there is $5.4 billion worth of weapons in US stockpiles that could be provided to Ukraine. “We have already been forced to slow down the replenishment of our own forces to hedge against an uncertain funding future,” McCord said in the letter. “Failure to replenish our military services on a timely basis could harm our military’s readiness.”

Also, coincidentally, they are saying that without a funding package, Ukraine will suffer losses by Thanksgiving, which falls on the fourth Thursday of November. This is around the time that the temporary budget will be re-evaluated.

Stop this madness. Americans do not feel a sense of urgency to send our personal weapons to Ukraine, and we certainly do not want to accumulate more debt to fight a war that only serves the neocons and globalists. It would not be unlikely for an event to occur between now and November that would change some public perspectives on increasing unlimited funding for Ukraine. This is akin to asking a homeless person for a large sum of money. We are deeply in debt with no clear way out. Domestic policy is nonexistent.
