What they are building in Britain is not healthcare reform. It is the construction of a surveillance state disguised as efficiency. Once governments centralize data, they never stop at the original promise. Every government throughout history has always claimed that surrendering liberty was necessary for security, stability, or public benefit. Rome kept census records to control taxation and military conscription. East Germany built the Stasi into one of the most invasive intelligence systems in modern history by weaponizing personal files, informants, and centralized records. The Soviet Union tracked citizens through internal passports and labor databases. Every empire eventually discovers that information is power, and once that temptation exists, governments never voluntarily relinquish it.
Now Britain’s NHS is reportedly granting Palantir contractors “unlimited access” to identifiable patient records. Internal NHS documents describe a new “admin” role that would permit outside contractors broad access to highly sensitive information through the Federated Data Platform. This is not anonymous statistical data. This is identifiable human data tied directly to individual citizens.
People are being sold the fantasy that this is only about improving efficiency, reducing waiting times, or streamlining care. That is always how these systems begin. Governments never announce outright that they are constructing mechanisms of control. They always wrap it in the language of modernization. The same promises were made after 9/11 with mass surveillance legislation. Citizens were told only terrorists would be monitored. Two decades later, governments monitor financial transactions, social media activity, geolocation data, communications metadata, and banking patterns of ordinary citizens who committed no crime whatsoever.
Palantir is not some harmless software vendor. This company was built alongside the intelligence apparatus of the United States, and Peter Thiel is a whole other topic to discuss but know he installed the current VP of the USA. Palantir’s roots are directly tied to surveillance, military targeting systems, predictive policing, and intelligence gathering. Critics inside Britain have already warned that placing Palantir at the center of NHS data infrastructure opens the door to “government abuse of power.”
The public is also being deliberately misled by the phrase “data processor.” NHS officials insist Palantir merely processes information under NHS instructions with safeguards and audits in place. Governments always claim safeguards exist right up until the moment those safeguards are quietly bypassed in the name of some emergency. The Patriot Act in the United States was sold as temporary. Emergency banking controls during financial crises are always presented as short-term. Income taxes themselves were once marketed as temporary wartime measures.
What makes this particularly dangerous is the scale of the data itself. Britain’s NHS system contains one of the most comprehensive centralized health databases in the world. That means psychological history, prescriptions, surgeries, reproductive records, genetic conditions, family history, addiction treatment, vaccination status, and behavioral health information can all potentially exist inside interconnected systems. Once centralized, this information becomes irresistible not only to governments, but also to intelligence agencies, insurers, corporations, and eventually political actors.
The real issue here is not whether Palantir itself abuses the data tomorrow morning. The danger is the precedent. Once governments normalize centralized citizen databases tied to AI systems, the architecture of control is complete. Every future administration inherits the machinery. Every future crisis becomes justification for expanding its use.
We already know where this road leads because history has shown us repeatedly. During COVID, governments around the world demonstrated how quickly societies would accept digital monitoring, movement restrictions, vaccine passports, financial surveillance, and censorship once fear entered the equation. People surrendered centuries of civil liberties in a matter of weeks. Now governments understand exactly how compliant populations become during emergencies.
There is another layer here that almost nobody is discussing. Palantir is a US company. Legal experts have repeatedly warned that US-connected cloud providers and software firms may still fall under the reach of the US CLOUD Act regardless of what contracts say publicly. That means foreign governments can potentially face external legal demands regarding data access. Britain is effectively placing national healthcare infrastructure and sensitive citizen information into a system connected to foreign corporate and legal structures.
The pushback inside Britain itself has become intense. MPs, doctors, unions, and privacy groups have openly warned that patient trust is collapsing. Some NHS regions are refusing to participate altogether because concerns surrounding Palantir continue to grow. Even NHS staff reportedly faced pressure for publicly criticizing the system. That alone tells you everything. When criticism must be suppressed, governments already know the public would reject the truth if fully informed.
The frightening part is that Britain is not unique. Europe is moving toward centralized digital identity systems, CBDCs, integrated banking oversight, AI governance frameworks, and cross-border information sharing all at the same time. The combination of health data, financial records, digital ID, and AI analysis creates a system no free society in history has ever possessed. Governments once needed armies of bureaucrats and informants to monitor populations. AI can now do it instantly.
Government still believes privacy means hiding wrongdoing. Privacy is the barrier between citizenship and servitude. Once governments know everything about you, they possess leverage over everything. History has never produced a benevolent empire with unlimited information power. Not one.
Germany has reached the point where even a watermelon can now be treated as a political threat. That is how absurd Europe has become. According to reports surrounding the latest antisemitism controversy in Germany, authorities and institutions are increasingly targeting symbols tied to pro-Palestinian activism, including the watermelon symbol that protesters began using after Palestinian flags and imagery started facing restrictions in some settings.
Think about how insane this has become. A watermelon is now being politically analyzed for “hate speech” implications while Europe is collapsing economically, energy prices remain elevated, migration tensions are exploding, and Germany itself is entering one of the worst industrial downturns since World War II. Instead of fixing the economy, Berlin is policing fruit symbolism and online speech.
I have warned that Germany has been moving steadily toward censorship for years. They raid homes over social media posts, prosecute citizens for insults online, and constantly expand speech laws under the excuse of fighting extremism. The problem is governments never stop at genuine extremism. Once censorship machinery exists, everything eventually becomes “dangerous.” Today it is a watermelon emoji. Tomorrow it becomes criticism of migration policy, opposition to war, or questioning government spending.
The Germans of all people should understand where this road leads. Europe has convinced itself that suppressing speech somehow eliminates social anger. It does not. It only drives resentment underground where it becomes more radicalized. History has shown repeatedly that governments trying to regulate political thought always end up creating even greater instability.
The frightening part is the sheer hypocrisy. Europe claims to defend democracy while simultaneously deciding which symbols, opinions, protests, or political expressions are acceptable. A watermelon itself is obviously not hateful. It is a piece of fruit. What governments fear is not the symbol itself. They fear losing control over public opinion as anger grows across Europe over war, migration, inflation, and collapsing living standards.
This is the real crisis developing in Germany. Not merely antisemitism, which absolutely exists and should be condemned, but the broader destruction of open discourse itself. Once governments begin defining ordinary political symbolism as dangerous, free society is already in serious trouble.
Europe is now openly admitting it faces a stagflation shock, but this crisis did not suddenly appear because of the Iran war. The war merely accelerated a collapse that was already well underway due to years of catastrophic policy decisions. Valdis Dombrovskis, European Commissioner for Economy and Productivity, described the situation as a “stagflationary shock” as oil prices surged again on fears the conflict could drag on and destabilize energy markets further.
I have warned repeatedly that Europe was heading into a depression long before a single missile flew in the Middle East. Germany was already in industrial decline. Manufacturing across Europe was already contracting. Energy costs had already exploded after the sanctions war against Russia. The politicians destroyed their own energy security and then pretended green energy fantasies would somehow replace reality.
Now they act shocked that oil moving above $110 a barrel is feeding inflation again. Reuters reported that G7 borrowing costs have surged from roughly 3.2% to nearly 4% since the war began as markets fear inflation will remain entrenched. The International Energy Agency also warned global oil supply could fall short of demand by 1.78 million barrels per day this year because of the conflict.
This is precisely how stagflation unfolds. Economic growth stalls while the cost of living continues rising. The average person gets crushed from both directions simultaneously. Wages cannot keep pace with food, fuel, transportation, and housing costs. Washington Post noted US inflation has already climbed to 3.8%, the highest since 2023, largely driven by energy prices. Europe faces even worse structural problems because its economy is far more dependent on imported energy and heavily burdened by regulation and taxation.
The political class keeps pretending this is temporary. That is exactly what governments said during the 1970s oil crisis before stagflation spiraled into years of economic misery. The difference now is governments are entering this crisis carrying record sovereign debt levels. They cannot raise rates aggressively without detonating their own bond markets.
The stagflation wave was already in place before the first bombs fell because governments destroyed productive economies through sanctions, climate mandates, reckless spending, and endless monetary manipulation. The Iran conflict merely exposed how fragile the global economy had already become.
Our Economic Confidence Model has been projecting this European stagflationary collapse for years because the ECM is not merely an economic model, it tracks shifts in public confidence and capital concentration. Europe entered a declining confidence wave years ago as capital began fleeing toward the United States. The 2026 Panic Cycle targeted Europe specifically because of war risk, sovereign debt instability, and the collapse in industrial competitiveness. This is why the euro continues weakening structurally despite short-term rallies. Capital no longer trusts European leadership. Once confidence breaks, governments respond with more regulation, more taxation, more debt, and eventually capital controls, which only accelerates the decline further. That is exactly what unfolded during previous sovereign debt crises throughout history from late-stage Rome to the collapse of socialist regimes in Eastern Europe.

Remarkably, many news articles are citing confusion in trying to understand why U.S. Undersecretary of War, Elbridge Colby, announced the suspension of U.S. participation in the Permanent Joint Board on Defense with Canada. However, the announcement comes immediately after his meeting with U.S. ambassador to Canada, Pete Hoekstra, at the Pentagon and the comment, “we’re working closely to ensure every NATO partner, including Canada, reaches the Hague Summit’s 3.5% GDP defense spending target, a vital investment for North American and Arctic defense.”
The issue, as outlined by Undersecretary Colby, centers around Prime Minister Mark Carney’s recent statements in antagonism toward the U.S., a public announcement that Canada would not be purchasing U.S. military equipment and the biggest issue of all, that Canada is not living up to the NATO defense spending agreements.
It was in December of 2024, immediately after the November election where Donald Trump won, when then Prime Minister Justin Trudeau flew to Mar-a-Lago for dinner with President Trump and told him there’s no way that Canada could meet their NATO obligations. Canada had relied on the USA to provide all national defense and was 16th in defense spending at 1.1% of GDP. {CITATION}
The issue of NATO compliance was part of a larger discussion around trade imbalances, non-tariff barriers, intellectual property conflicts and legislative hurdles that Canada used as a crutch to retain economic benefit without reciprocity.
Trudeau was arguing that Canada could not change all the points of conflict, drop their non-tariff barriers, comply with NATO demands and simultaneously get into total alignment with the USMCA trade compact (CUSMA to Canada), because their climate policies did not support or match the heavy industrial processing capabilities of both the United States and Mexico.
This triggered President Trump to respond with the 51st state, notation. Essentially, if you cannot be a partner with equal capabilities; and if you need to retain structural economic dependency; then Canada should just become a 51st state of the USA.
Since that time, things went downhill quickly. Instead of trying to find ways to eliminate points of conflict, Prime Minister Mark Carney began a campaign of aggressive anti-Trump narrative distribution in order to maximize domestic political benefits.
President Trump then turned toward Mexico and began working with USTR Jamieson Greer to construct what is essentially a bilateral trade agreement between the U.S. and Mexico.
The administration began ignoring Canada, planning instead to announce the upcoming dissolution of the USMCA and then force Canada to negotiate a bilateral. A jilted Canada then began doubling and tripling down on the anti-Trumpism, with Carney saying the era of trade between the USA and Canada is over.
Carney then reached out to Europe and China for trade replacement value and began making announcements about no longer purchasing U.S. manufactured fighter jets and military hardware.
U.S. Undersecretary of War, Elbridge Colby meets with U.S. Ambassador to Canada, Pete Hoekstra, and obviously the NATO stuff is just the straw that ended the U.S. participation in the Permanent Joint Board on Defense with Canada. Not a complicated timeline to figure out.
WASHINGTON – […] “A strong Canada that prioritizes hard power over rhetoric benefits us all,” Colby said. “Unfortunately, Canada has failed to make credible progress on its defense commitments. DoW is pausing the Permanent Joint Board on Defense to reassess how this forum benefits shared North American defense.
“We can no longer avoid the gaps between rhetoric and reality. Real powers must sustain our rhetoric with shared defense and security responsibilities,” he continued. “Delivering on shared continental defense begins by recognizing our shared geography. Only by investing in our own defense capabilities will Americans and Canadians be safe, secure, and prosperous.”
It’s unclear why Colby made the announcement on Monday, given that Carney’s Davos speech was months ago.
Minutes before the announcement, Colby posted a photograph of himself meeting with the U.S. ambassador to Canada, Pete Hoekstra, at the Pentagon, though he did not specify when the meeting took place.
“We’re working closely to ensure every NATO partner, including Canada, reaches the Hague Summit’s 3.5% GDP defense spending target, a vital investment for North American and Arctic defense,” he wrote along with the photo.
Carney’s relationship with President Donald Trump has fractured in recent months over several different issues, including the former’s address at Davos. (read more)
Every trade and economic associated agency within the Trump administration is in alignment, and the elimination of the USMCA with Canada is clearly at the end of this path. However, if you can find one in one-hundred Canadians who understand or accept this destination, I would be surprised. A mass formation psychosis has fallen upon the land of Canada, and the overwhelming majority of Canadians just repeat, “Trump bad.” It’s weird.
Speaking from the White House, President Trump, HHS Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, CMS Administrator Mehmet Oz and various officials from the pharmaceutical industry held an event to deliver information about the latest updates to TrumpRx. More prescription brands have been added to the exchange, and the website has significant updates allowing price comparison and shopping. Additionally, Amazon Rx executives were on hand to announce their joining with TrumpRx to offer fast delivery options.

Homeland Security Task Force members from a variety of federal law enforcement agencies announced a major arrest in Puerto Rico taking down a large narcotrafficking network and criminal underground. [Press Release] According to the DOJ, 23 people were arrested with 14 potentially facing life in prison and death sentence eligible.
Charges range from RICO organization, money laundering, murder, drug crimes, racketeering and firearms violations. The joint task force effort took down a large network as noted in the press release. “The transnational criminal organization referred to as La Familia Nunca Muere (LFNM), composed of Las FARC (also known as Las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Cantera and Las FARC Company), Cantera Nueva Generación (CNG) and other gangs from the areas of San Juan, Bayamón, Comerío, Trujillo Alto and Carolina including its members and associates, constituted an “Enterprise,” as defined by 18 U.S.C. § 1961(4) (“the Enterprise”), that is, a group of individuals associated in fact, whose members functioned as a continuing unit for a common purpose of achieving the objectives of the Enterprise. The Enterprise was engaged in, and its activities affected interstate and foreign commerce.”
DOJ – SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – On May 12, 2026, a federal grand jury in the District of Puerto Rico returned an indictment charging 23 members of a racketeering enterprise known as La Familia Nunca Muere (LFNM) with racketeering—murder, drug trafficking, and firearms violations. This prosecution is part of the Homeland Security Task Force (HSTF) initiative established by Executive Order 14159, Protecting the American People Against Invasion.
“This criminal Enterprise used gun violence and murder as mere business tools to maintain power and control. The filing of RICO charges gives us the capacity to systematically dismantle the violent gangs that fuel bloodshed and keep families living in fear,” said U.S. Attorney Muldrow. “These charges are a key part of our unified strategy to eradicate drug driven gang violence in our communities. Through RICO charges prosecutors can charge and bring to justice the entire criminal Enterprise as one organization—we can reach every participant from leadership to street level shooters and show a pattern of coordinated crime across gangs rather than isolated acts. It allows us to tell the full story of how different gangs coordinated murders, drug trafficking, and intimidation to advance a shared enterprise, instead of presenting each case as a stand-alone crime. The U.S. Attorney’s Office, together with our federal, state, and local law enforcement partners, will continue to aggressively pursue these gangs wherever they operate and will not relent until our neighborhoods are safe.”
“Violence of this magnitude will not become the norm in Puerto Rico, and the DEA, alongside our law enforcement partners, is committed to confronting it head-on,” said DEA Caribbean Division Special agent in Charge Michael Mayer. “This investigation targeted individuals who believed they could use murder and intimidation to strengthen their criminal organization and spread fear throughout our communities. What they encountered instead was a united effort by federal and local agencies working side by side, sharing intelligence, resources, and manpower to dismantle those responsible. This case represents far more than arrests and indictments, it represents our collective determination to protect the public, disrupt violent criminal networks, and restore safety to the communities affected by this violence.” (read more)
Barbara Boyd from Promethean Action PAC gives her take on the current situation.
“Barbara Boyd argues the key outcome of Trump’s China visit was the personal trust between Trump and Xi, symbolized by Xi’s “secret garden” tour previously reserved for Putin, and framed as establishing guardrails for U.S.–China strategic and tech competition amid the Iran war and energy geopolitics. She says London and Democrats are “screaming” because Trump is reshaping global economic relationships while Treasury Secretary Bessent lifts U.S. sanctions on Russian exports. The episode targets Mark Carney and Keir Starmer as City of London figures who tried to capture China finance, advance BRICS as a dollar alternative, promote a synthetic reserve currency via CBDCs, and steer $130T through green finance—efforts Boyd says have failed as Trump reverses “Green New Deal” policies. She highlights DOJ election-rigging probes, renewed scrutiny of “Russiagate,” anti-fraud prosecutions, voter backlash, and insurgent politics in Los Angeles and London.”

President Trump announced on Truth Social that he is delaying further strikes against Iran pending current negotiations with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar. According to the announcement the Gulf States are negotiating a ‘zero nuclear’ position.
This is an interesting development as the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) were previously the ones urging President Trump not to halt the military pressure campaign.
PRESIDENT TRUMP – “I have been asked by the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, and the President of the United Arab Emirates, Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, to hold off on our planned Military attack of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which was scheduled for tomorrow, in that serious negotiations are now taking place, and that, in their opinion, as Great Leaders and Allies, a Deal will be made, which will be very acceptable to the United States of America, as well as all Countries in the Middle East, and beyond. This Deal will include, importantly, NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR IRAN! Based on my respect for the above mentioned Leaders, I have instructed Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, The Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Daniel Caine, and The United States Military, that we will NOT be doing the scheduled attack of Iran tomorrow, but have further instructed them to be prepared to go forward with a full, large scale assault of Iran, on a moment’s notice, in the event that an acceptable Deal is not reached. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
