There are Microphones in the Pasta Sauce

As we enter deeper into a dystopian hellscape, even pasta sauce companies are entering the mass surveillance, data harvest game. Prego partnered with StoryCorps to launch “The Connection Keeper,” a device equipped with two microphones that I intended to record dinnertime conversations among families.

“The recordings are designed to help families preserve the authentic sounds of time spent together, creating a personal archive to revisit for years to come. Families will have the option to preserve their recordings private within the StoryCorps archive or share them publicly as part of a special Prego Collection. Public recordings will also be preserved at the Library of Congress, so they can be accessed for generations to come,” the company stated on its website.

Although this is more of a publicity stunt, one must question who would be willing to voluntarily record their personal, intimate conversations with family. Previous generations of authoritative governments are rolling in their graves. Ironically, our family dinner conversations are already tracked and recorded by the devices we willingly use (i.e., cell phones), but in this situation, people are active volunteers.

Data harvesting has become a monumental mission for governments and corporations that want to know how to control and extort you, specifically you. There is not a piece of technology left that does not actively track your movements to predict future behavior, and eventually, subconsciously control that behavior.

The future of AI depends on the data it will be provided, as no human can decode the endless stream of real-time incoming information. Go outside, touch the grass, and hope that the collective consciousness of humanity remains intact as we move closer to the inevitable societal reset.

There are very few opportunities to step inside the actual models that track capital flows, forecast market turning points, and map global economic cycles. This May, we are offering three highly focused educational webinars designed to take you from understanding the system… to applying it in real time.

These sessions are built on over 40+ years of research and are taught by Erwin Pletsch, who has spent decades working directly with Martin Armstrong’s models.


Understanding the Economic Confidence Model

May 12

LearnMoreButton

The official training, titled “Understanding the Economic Confidence Model,” walks through the origins, structure, and real-world application of the ECM—the model that tracks global booms, busts, and shifts in confidence.

You will learn:

  • How the ECM was discovered and constructed
  • How to interpret its timing and turning points
  • The connection between confidence, capital flows, and global markets
  • Real-world examples of ECM alignment across countries and asset classes

This session is designed for anyone serious about understanding why markets move—not just reacting to them.


Understanding the Monetary Crisis Cycle

May 13

LearnMoreButton

If the ECM shows when confidence shifts, the Monetary Crisis Cycle explains what happens when that confidence breaks. This session dives into the cyclical nature of sovereign debt crises, currency transitions, and global capital migration.

You will learn:

  • The origins and recurring patterns of monetary crises
  • How foreign exchange and capital flows behave during instability
  • The relationship between the MC Cycle and the ECM
  • Historical turning points and trend changes tied to the cycle

This webinar is suited for anyone looking to understand the broader global financial system—from currencies to sovereign risk.


Updated Advanced Techniques and Considerations for using Reversals and Arrays

May 15–16

LearnMoreButton

This is where theory becomes execution. The official advanced training, “Updated Advanced Techniques and Considerations for using Reversals and Arrays” focuses on applying the Socrates model in real-world trading environments.

You will learn:

  • How to use Reversals (price) and Arrays (time) together
  • Advanced techniques for identifying high-probability trades
  • How to interpret market structure using Socrates tools
  • Practical strategies based on real trading scenarios

This is an advanced, two-day intensive workshop designed for experienced traders already familiar with the concepts.


These three sessions are designed to work together:

  • The ECM teaches you when major turning points occur
  • The Monetary Crisis Cycle explains why they happen
  • Reversals & Arrays show you how to act on them

These are the actual models used to interpret global financial trends—delivered in a format that allows direct interaction, Q&A, and deeper understanding. Capacity is limited. These are live, interactive sessions designed for anyone interested in better understanding the inner workings of Martin Armstrong’s analyses.

Great News – DC Subpoenas for Brennan Grand Jury Testimony are Withdrawn, Replaced by Requests for Voluntary Interviews


Posted originally on CTH on April 24, 2026 | Sundance 

Several people have inquired about the Washington DC subpoenas for former CIA Director John Brennan being withdrawn, and what does that mean. I intentionally did not write about it at the time because I wanted to look closely at the fact pattern.

The DOJ is still planning to send requests for voluntary interviews and grand jury testimony according to media reports.

From my perspective, this is a good sign. Potentially a very good sign.

The issues around the CIA targeting President Trump are extensive, attached to numerous individuals and entities, and generally complex.  Normally, an investigation of this scope would begin with questions to the outer perimeter individuals who were carrying out the instructions of those above them.

CIA Director, John Brennan and CIA Analyst, Eric Ciaramella

It is from those types of lower-level interviews that material is gathered for use in examining the truthfulness of those who organized and directed the operations.  In the example of John Brennan’s false statements to congress surrounding the ICA (Intelligence Community Assessment), or the inclusion of the Steele Dossier in the analytical material, there are key people within the Directorate of Analysis, National Security Agency and National Intelligence Council who can give first-hand statements about Brennan’s instructions.

Those types of interviews are just as important as questioning John Brennan himself, and for obvious reasons those interviews should come first.

♦ Here is where it becomes important to remember a key thing that happened between the time the investigation of Brennan began and the arrival of investigative Asst to the AG, Joe DiGenova.

Do you remember the recent criminal referral by DNI Tulsi Gabbard for former CIA Analyst Eric Ciaramella?

BACKGROUND: Former CIA Director John Brennan was being investigated during the time that DNI Tulsi Gabbard was working on retrieving and declassifying the material surrounding the first impeachment effort against President Trump.  CIA Analyst Eric Ciaramella was the “anonymous whistleblower” that triggered the report to Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson that started the impeachment operation.

This same CIA Analyst Eric Ciaramella was also involved in the fabrication of the January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment, which is at the heart of the false testimony to congress that John Brennan is being investigated for.

Eric Ciaramella was criminally referred by DNI Gabbard for his actions in relation to the impeachment operation.  This sets the DOJ up with the potential for a plea agreement with Ciaramella on his impeachment conduct, in exchange for testimony against Brennan on the ICA construct.

Suddenly we see reports of DOJ Brennan subpoenas being withdrawn immediately after the DOJ criminal referral for Eric Ciaramella is introduced.

**nudge-nudge* *wink-wink** See the dynamic?

I’m not saying this is happening, but the timing is awfully coincidental, no?

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department has withdrawn subpoenas issued in the investigation of former CIA Director John Brennan, with officials asking for voluntary interviews instead of testimony before a grand jury, two people familiar with the matter said Tuesday.

A small handful of subpoenas were known to have been issued over the weekend for witnesses to appear before a grand jury in Washington. But investigators on Monday evening informed lawyers that the subpoenas were being withdrawn in favor of requests for voluntary interviews, said the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press to discuss developments in an ongoing investigation.

The reason for the reversal in course was not immediately known.

The months-old Brennan investigation is one of several criminal probes the Justice Department has opened over the last year against President Donald Trump’s perceived adversaries. It centers on one of the Republican president’s chief grievances — a U.S. intelligence community finding that Russia interfered on his behalf during his successful 2016 presidential campaign.

TIMELINE:

Aug – Nov 2025: CTH emphasizes need for ICIG Atkinson material to get to Ciaramella/Brennan

December 2025 – Brennan attorney notified he is under investigation.

Jan – March 2026 – DNI gains access to Atkinson transcript from HPSCI

March 2026 – DNI assembled ICIG Atkinson material from Ciaramella report and investigation.

March 25 – HPSCI releases transcript to DNI.

April 13 – HPSCI released ICIG declassified transcript / DNI releases ICIG Ciaramella report.

April 15 – Eric Ciaramella criminal referral.

April 21 – Brennan witness subpoenas withdrawn.

Hopefully the timeline helps people to understand what is likely happening in the background.

I suspect, well, let’s consider, Ciaramella has been given the opportunity to cooperate as a witness in the 2017 Brennan case; perhaps in exchange for something like limited immunity in the 2019 impeachment issue.   The timeline tracks.

Listen Up! – Iranian Prince in Exile Reza Pahlavi Delivers a Brutal Message to Western Media


Posted originally on CTH on April 24, 2026 | Sundance

Two years after the Russia-Ukraine war began, people kept wondering why I continued to ask why no western media were boots on the ground in Ukraine delivering news of the conflict.  I called it “world war reddit” for a reason.  That question loomed even bigger given the relentless on-the-ground reporting over the U.S-Iran conflict.

Why were/are international journalists almost immediately embedded in Iran to cover the details of the conflict, yet that same approach never took place in Ukraine.

For Ukraine there was no daily reports on the fighting; no frontline reports with journalists in helmets and flak jackets; no live interviews or reports of the back-and-forth battles between Russia and Ukraine; no ‘coming to you live from Kiev‘ tonight, nothing.  However, as soon as military conflict breaks out in Iran – all the familiar war/conflict reporting surfaced again.

But I see the Ukraine war reported on Telegram, some say.  True, but really?

What you “see” is through a social media prism that is structurally controlled by Western intelligence operations.  World War Reddit!

For additional context, when the U.S. went to war in Iraq/Afghanistan, how did it impact your daily life?  That’s analogous the same impact within Russia that I experienced in 2024 (3 months) and 2025 (1 month).  All recognizable impact is sanctions related.

One of the reasons I traveled from Western Russia to Poland -specifically driving across Ukraine- was to see for myself. I shared that story before.

The reality of the Ukraine conflict, World War Reddit, is entirely against the interests of those who are constructing the false impression of it.

In reality the Eastern Donbas region is very pro-Russian and when the Russian Federation took over towns and geography, driving back the Ukraine military, Russian troops were factually greeted as liberators.  Now, there is a slow-grinding stalemate, and the losses on the Ukraine side are well beyond what has been reported by government officials.

I provide this context of reality -vs- media presentation because Iranian Prince Reza Pahlavi is strongly calling attention to the bias and willful blindness of European media. WATCH:

“I want to speak directly to the people of Europe. In the past two weeks I have had two major press conferences — one in Stockholm, one in Berlin. Between them 150 journalists attended. We spent more than two hours together.”

Not a single one of those 150 journalists asked about the 40,000 Iranians slaughtered on the streets of my country on January 8th and 9th! Not a single one of the 150 journalists asked me about the 19 political prisoners executed in the last two weeks.

When I told them 20 more are currently sentenced to death, nothing. Not a single one of the 150 journalists asked me about them. When I stood next to a mother and next to a father who lost their sons on January 8th and 9th, and asked them to hear their stories, not a single one of the 150 journalists asked them a question.

[…] It is clear to me that my 40,000 brave, innocent compatriots who were slaughtered in the fight for liberty are of little interest to these journalists. They seem more interested in criticizing America and asking why the United States and Israel killed the dictator that has slaughtered our people for 47 YEARS — than criticizing the regime doing the slaughtering.

They seem more interested asking questions about Iran’s past and history than about what is happening in Iran today; or about the democratic future Iranians are seeking. One member of parliament even told me they didn’t think Iranians are ready for democracy. To that member of Parliament, to those journalists, I remind you: Iranians aren’t just “ready” for democracy. 40,000 people just gave their lives for it, and I won’t let that be in vain.”

So know this, whether or not Europe stands with us; whether or not your journalists do their jobs; whether or not your politicians demonstrate their courage to act, I will fight for my people and my country. Even if we have to do this alone – we will fight until Iran is free”!

I don’t know if this guy is the right one to lead the charge to bring a more politically democratic outcome for the people in Iran, but what he is saying about the willful blindness of western media is absolutely correct.
