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.

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.

The EAT-Lancet Commission – UN to Release Meat Consumption Limitations


Posted originally on Nov 30, 2023 By Martin Armstrong 

Insects.Bugs_.WorldEconomicForum.WEF_

It has been confirmed that the United Nations will begin to advocate for a reduction in meat consumption this December at the COP28 summit. The UN states that “richer nations” must do their part to adhere to the Paris Climate Accords by changing their dietary needs. The people making these decisions on our behalf will be flying to the summit on their private jets and dining in luxury. These top 1% of “polluter elites” produce more carbon emissions than the bottom 66% combined.

The EAT-Lancet Commission (also called EAT Forum) has partnered with the UN to provide future dietary guidelines. “While meat is an important source of key nutrients including protein, iron and vitamin B12, excess meat consumption can harm our health and the planet. Aim to consume no more than 98 grams of red meat (pork, beef or lamb), 203 grams of poultry and 196 grams of fish per week,” their website states. A chicken breast contains about 24 grams of protein, for perspective.

“The EAT-Lancet Commission provide scientific targets that will allow us to feed up to 10 billion people by 2050 within planetary boundaries.” This is the precise target that the World Economic Forum has been targeting – 2050. The WEF has stated that since the world’s population will grow to 9.7 billion by 2050, we need to begin incorporating insects into our diets to feed the additional 2 billion mouths.

There is no statistically significant correlation between our current meat consumption and CO2 emissions or feeding the population in a few decades. We all saw the likes of Kamala Harris and other politicians using their gas stoves on Thanksgiving while they were telling the masses, the Great Unwashed, to remove them from their homes to save the planet. The climate change agenda is purely a control tactic. It gives the elite globalists control over our tax spending, energy and food consumption, and freedom of movement. The very people preaching that we must abandon our way of life to save the world KNOW that it is a scam.

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.
