One-Third of Democrats Say Americans Have Too Much Freedom


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Sep 29, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

RealClear Opinion Research conducted a study to see if censorship is a partisan issue in America. What they found was astounding as a portion of the population is begging for government to take over and replace our pretend democracy with something more akin to communism or fascism. Almost one-third (34%) of Democratic voters believe that Americans have “too much freedom.”

That’s right – the land of the free is too free for some. About half (46%) of Republicans believe Americans have too little freedom, with 22% of Democrats agreeing. The aftermath of COVID has changed the landscape for what people find acceptable, and questioning the narrative – be it the science or new societal norms – are not tolerable to some. Independent voters (61%) and Republicans (74%) believe free speech should be protected under any circumstance as outlined in the First Amendment. Yet, the Democrats are divided on 1A as 47% believe there should be some censorship.

Three-fourths of Democrats want hateful speech censored, but we have seen what the government considers “hateful” amounts to anything that goes against the status quo. For example, protesters can burn down cities shouting that white people are slavers who should die and that is perfectly fine for the MSM. But if you question why schools are indoctrinating children with sexual messages and drag shows, you are considered hateful and intolerant. Why should the government and MSM decide what is just and right?

Counter-culture was once the leftist hippies who opposed the Vietnam War. They did not trust the government or authority and were seen as extremists. Today, the extremists are those on the right who oppose war and question the government. If only the Founding Fathers knew how the politicians today would twist the Constitution to fit their rhetoric.

Trudeau Removing Attorney Client Privilege For Taxes


Armstrong Economics Blog/Canada Re-Posted Sep 28, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Trudeau is Klas Schwab’s pet. He does as he is told. No world leader has sought to destroy the attorney-client privilege, but Trudeau is hunting money for taxes and removing the confidentiality between Canadians and their lawyers. What is next? Priests must report every sin to Trudeau they hear in confession.

Trudeau is now passing the Notice to the Professions: whereby this is the Amendments to the Mandatory Disclosure Rules in the Income Tax Act

Trudeau looks upon the people as absolute scum. He ONLY represents the World Economic Forum. Trudeau is going after taxes and destroying the very foundation of a free society.

Canadian lawyers are objecting for this is a fundamental foundation of the rule of law in Western society. Trudeau is now removing attorney-cleint privilege with the stoke of a pen. The Attorney General of Canada has at least agreed to exempt lawyers, paralegals, and articling students, from the mandatory disclosure provisions in sections 237.3 and 237.4 of the Income Tax Act ONLY until the earlier of the Court’s decision in respect of the Federation’s application or November 20, 2023.

What Trudeau is doing is being wacthed by most Western governments. If he gets away with this, the legal profession will NEVER be the same. Trudeau represents Schwab, Soros, and the WEF – not the people of Canada.

Dear Leftists — Why are There Zero Terrorist Attacks in Poland?


Armstrong Economics Blog/International News Re-Posted Sep 28, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Poland has not been attacked by terrorists because they do not allow them within their borders. MEP Dominik Tarczynski delivered a cutting speech addressed to the “Dear Leftists” who have lost in Polish elections eight consecutive times. He tells the left that they will continually lose because the people of Poland do not want illegal migration.

Tarczynski explains that Poland has one of the lowest levels of unemployment in the Eurozone, and permitting in immigrants under the guise of “skilled workers” is unnecessary. The European Union is run by the globalist elites who are pushing for open borders. Yet another reason why individual European nations are questioning their position within the union as Brussels is pressuring all nations to adopt their ideologies.

I mentioned in another article that nearly 70% of violent crime in France is committed by migrants. There are extreme risks involved when mixing cultures that do not align. Poland is taking additional measures to protect its border, announcing that they will be searching vehicles traveling from Slovakia for illegal aliens. “We don’t want anyone alleging that our border is porous,” Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki. This comes after it was discovered that certain Polish embassies were illegally selling EU work visas for thousands of euros.

Dominik Tarczynski said something quite interesting in his speech. Do not tell us about democracy. Brussels shouts about democracy from their high horses while ruling as tyrants. Putin recently condemned America for losing its ability to preach about democracy.

America does not have fair elections, and the president is a blatant criminal who has his main opponent arrested. “It shows the rottenness of the US political system that can’t claim to teach others democracy,” Putin stated. “What happened to Trump is a motivated prosecution of a political rival.” The world can see how divided Western nations have become due to the leftist globalists pushing forth the Build Back Better agenda that first required the ruin of nations.

Rota Resigns – Scapegoat for Trudeau


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Sep 28, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Speaker for the House of Commons Anthony Rota has resigned after embarrassing Justin Trudeau and Canada as a whole. Rota invited Yaroslav Hunka, former 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS, to speak to the Canadian Parliament to impress Zelensky. The video of Zelensky and Trudeau giving this former Ukrainian Nazi a standing ovation is circulating the internet.

Trudeau had the opportunity to vet this individual before he arrived in Parliament. He is equally as responsible as Rota, if not more so, since he is the man in charge. Justin Trudeau has refused to recognize the role he played in this debacle. However, he did note that this was an embarrassment for all of Canada, especially amid the Jewish holidays.

In fact, according to Trudeau, Russian aggression and propaganda led him to salute a Nazi on the world stage. Russia has called the claims “outrageous” and “sloppy.” “Such sloppiness of memory is outrageous. Many Western countries, including Canada, have raised a young generation that does not know who fought whom or what happened during the Second World War. And they know nothing about the threat of fascism,” a Kremlin spokesperson said. He is indeed correct as history is continually rewritten.

Blaming Russia was not enough for Trudeau. Anthony Rota was forced to leave his position in shame. “It’s with a heavy heart that I rise to inform members of my resignation as Speaker for the House of Commons,” Rota read aloud to his peers. “I reiterate my profound regret for my error in recognizing an individual in the House during the joint address to Parliament of President Zelensky,” he continued, noting, “that public recognition has caused pain to individuals and communities including the Jewish community in Canada and around the world, in addition to survivors of Nazi atrocities in Poland, among other nations.”

Obviously, Zelensky did not apologize or discuss the connection between the Nazi Party and current branches of Ukraine’s military. Justin Trudeau humiliated himself here. Canadians see that he threw Rota under the bus as a scapegoat for the whole incident, and no one respects a person incapable of accepting blame. The video will live on in the archives of the internet and everyone will remember the day Trudeau and Zelensky saluted and cheered a Nazi.

Matt Gaetz Explains Why Biden Inflation Means Congressional Bribes Must be Paid in Gold Bars


Posted originally on the CTH on September 27, 2023 | Sundance 

The first thirty seconds of these remarks is so brutally honest, it made me laugh out loud. WATCH:

[Previously] … I do not know if Matt Gaetz is the worthy Ty Cobb of Republican politics or not, but I do know he is currently one of the only people that is not pretending.  That elevates him in my view.   Oh sure, he’ll probably acquiesce to the pressures and sell out just like the rest of them, but right now – in his best form – Matt Gaetz has dropped the pretense, and that has sent the machinery of the DC Republican system into fits of apoplexy.  Good.

I’m at the point of frustration with this nonsense where professional republican apoplexy, anger and visibly ‘losing their sh*t’ makes me smile.

Once you see the strings on the marionettes, you can never return to that moment in the performance when you did not see them.

Anthony Fauci Had a Secret, “No Record of Entry”, Visit to CIA to Influence Their COVID-19 Origin Decision


Posted originally on the CTH on September 27, 2023 | Sundance 

Given the nature of how the intelligence apparatus manipulates their work product in order to manipulate public opinion, the CIA willingly changing their determination of COVID-19 origin doesn’t come as a surprise.  What is more surprising is that Congress found out about it. [SEE PDF HERE]

The Congressional Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic reported last night that former head of the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Disease, Anthony Fauci, conducted a stealth visit to the CIA headquarters in order to influence their findings on the origins of COVID-19.  Fauci did not want the U.S. govt relationship with the Wuhan lab and gain of function research becoming a risk, with the COVID-19 virus originating from that lab and relationship.

Dr. Fauci’s suspicious moments, “without a record of entry,” are especially concerning in light of recent whistleblower testimony alleging the CIA rewarded six analysts with significant financial incentives to change their COVID-19 origins conclusion from a lab-leak to zoonosis.  It appears the secret visit by Fauci was the triggering mechanism to change the CIA findings. 

Subcommittee Chairman, Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-OH), has requested “documents sufficient to show any Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General authorized, supported, or otherwise affiliated movements of Dr. Anthony Fauci from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2022 into any CIA owned, operated, or occupied building, including but not limited to the George Bush Center of Intelligence.”

The Chairman has also requested Special Agent Brett Rowland, the guy who worked with Anthony Fauci through the Department of Health and Human Services, is made available for a voluntary transcribed interview.

Newsom Vetoes Parental Discrimination Gender Identity Bill


Armstrong Economics Blog/WOKE Re-Posted Sep 27, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Some say California’s Governor Gavin Newsom is attempting to appear more moderate ahead of election season. Newsom actually used common sense and defied party lines by vetoing a bill that would have taken children away from parents who refuse to provide them with gender-affirming care.

Democratic Assemblymember Wendy Carrillo and Democratic state Sen. Scott Wiener introduced AB-957 Family law: gender identity, and it actually passed state legislature in September. The bill would have likened refusing gender-affirming care to child abuse. So if you refuse to give your child puberty blockers or put a tutu on your son who claims he is your daughter, you are unfit to be a parent in Biden’s America. Forget the statistics or the growing number of adults who are forever scarred from the medical procedures their parents allowed them to undergo before their brains had fully developed.

Newsom stated that provisions are already in place that “protect” children from parents not adhering to the woke agenda. This is commonplace in California family court as parents will attempt to discredit the other for not accepting their child’s chosen gender or sexuality. Children have already been removed from their homes for this very reason, but the proposed bill would have made it easier for the government to confiscate confused kids.

Now, Newsom is still a strong advocate of children undertaking genital mutilation. However, he is attempting to seem a bit more moderate as Democrats in the middle are not in favor of these measures. “I share a deep commitment to advancing the rights of transgender Californians, an effort that has guided my decisions through many decades in public office,” Newsom wrote in the announcement. “That said, I urge caution when the Executive and Legislative branches of state government attempt to dictate – in prescriptive terms that single out one characteristic – legal standards for the Judicial branch to apply.”

California lawmakers are introducing new legislation at rapid speed, and it is all intended to transfer parental rights to the state. There are proposals to allow children to seek psychiatric care in relation to their gender without notifying parents. There is another proposal that would provide shelter to children as young as 12 if they reported facing “LGBTQ+ negativity” at home. These are intended to be broad terms to give the state the power to confiscate kids. When my kids were young, you’d have to sign a letter just to let them go on a school trip a few miles away. Now, parents are fighting with the school boards to have a say in how their child is raised.

New York Judge Rules Without Trial, Jury or Verdict, That President Trump Must Dissolve All Business Interests in State


Posted originally on the CTH on September 26, 2023 | Sundance 

This is John Galt level government targeting.  A New York State judge has arbitrarily ruled, no trial – no jury, that President Trump overvalued his real estate holdings in New York, which means he paid too much in taxes, in order to secure financing and loans. [Ruling PDF HERE]

All the banks and lenders did their own due diligence on the financing.  All operational loans and business loans were paid back.  There were no defaults or banking interests adversely impacted. There are no victims of what the State calls “fraud,” yet the judge is ruling the Trump organization must dissolve all business interests in the state and exit within 10 days.

New York Attorney General Latisha James campaigned for office with promises to target the Trump Organization and Donald Trump himself.  This is malicious lawfare in the extreme.

NEW YORK – […] As part of his ruling, the judge canceled the business certificates of all of the defendants, which include the Trump Organization itself and numerous LLCs connected to the company, as well as the business certificates of any entity “controlled or beneficially owned by” Trump, his adult sons, the Trump Organization’s former chief financial officer Allen Weisselberg and company executive Jeffrey McConney.

Engoron ordered that within 10 days of the ruling, Trump and the other defendants must provide names of potential independent receivers “to manage the dissolution of the canceled LLCs.” (read more)

President Trump responded via his Truth Social account.

Canada’s Speaker of House Resigns After Leading Chamber Celebration for Nazi War Criminal with Trudeau and Zelenskyy


Posted originally on the CTH on September 26, 2023 | Sundance | 317 Comments

As hard as it might be to believe, Canada gave 98-year-old Nazi war criminal, Yaroslav Hunka, a standing ovation in the House of Commons.  Speaker Anthony Rota drew attention to Hunka and introduced him as a war hero who fought for the First Ukrainian Division.  However, the First Ukrainian Division also was known as the Waffen-SS Galicia Division, or the SS 14th Waffen Division, a Ukrainian unit of Nazis under the command of German Nazis.

Earlier today, as a result of the world discovering that Canada was harboring Nazi fugitive Yaroslav Hunka, the Polish government requested his return to Europe to stand trial for war crimes.  The entire episode has become a major political embarrassment for Canada.  Moments after Poland sent their letter to Canada, the Speaker of the House of Commons resigned.  WATCH:

From fighting Nazis, to giving them a standing ovation in the Canadian House of Commons.  Quite an arc of history here; where arc’s might be shaped like pretzels.

Zelensky and Trudeau Give Nazi Standing Ovation


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Sep 26, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Is the propaganda working yet? Do you believe the West is really the good guy here? Ukraine and Russia continually point the finger and accuse the other of supporting Nazis. Well, jet-setting Zelensky recently visited Canada’s Parliament where they invited a literal former Nazi from World War II to speak. Yaroslav Hunka, former 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS, received a standing ovation.

The 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS was a voluntary division composed of Ukrainians. Hunka retired to Canada after the war and was never punished for his crimes. Trudeau thought it would be a good idea for him to visit Ottawa and speak on Ukraine and Canada’s cooperation during wartime. Trudeau is making House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota take the heat for inviting Hunka. “I wish to make clear that no one, including fellow parliamentarians and the Ukraine delegation, was aware of my intention or of my remarks before I delivered them,” Rota said, although he previously called the Nazi volunteer “a Ukrainian hero and a Canadian hero.”

Jewish rights groups are not accepting the apology. The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center (FSWC) said they were shocked to see the Canadian government celebrating the Nazis“There should be no confusion that this unit was responsible for the mass murder of innocent civilians with a level of brutality and malice that is unimaginable,” the group stated. Trudeau has not personally apologized. Poilievre took to X to explain that Trudeau played a direct role in this embarrassing situation: “No parliamentarians (other than Justin Trudeau) had the opportunity to vet this individual’s past before he was introduced and honoured on the floor of the House of Commons. Without warning or context, it was impossible for any parliamentarian in the room (other than Mr. Trudeau) to know of this dark past.”

The modern-day Nazis continue to support Ukraine. Zelensky has already received $6.7 billion from Canada and is ready to pocket more. So, you decide if the West is still the “good guy” in this growing conflict.
