Major Escalation – NATO Threatening to Launch Long-Range Missiles into Russia from Ukraine – Vladimir Putin Responds


Posted originally on the CTH on September 14, 2024 | Sundance

I’m going to drop a series of short video segments highlighting how the Biden administration is coaxing NATO allies into a position of war against Russia using an escalation within the proxy state of Ukraine. This is not getting nearly enough attention.

Ukraine (Zelensky), Canada (Trudeau), the U.K. (Starmer) and the United States (Biden) are currently discussing the shipment of Storm Shadow missiles from the U.K that have the ability to reach deep into Russia. Zelensky has been asking for them; however, the current conversation amid the NATO partnership essentially boils down to whether the missiles should be deployed to Ukraine or not.

When Vladimir Putin was asked about the long-range missile deployment and potential for strikes deep into Russia, the Russian Federation President spoke clearly about what was at stake.

Putin noted that Ukraine does not currently have long range missiles, nor do they have anything remotely close to the targeting system needed to use them. Therefore, as the Russian president noted, if such missiles are launched and strike Russia they are coming directly from NATO. President Putin said Russia will respond accordingly. WATCH (the translation is accurate):

As of this moment in late Saturday (9/14/24), British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is heading home from a meeting with Joe Biden without any agreement on the deployment of the missiles. The threat seemingly remains, as a threat to deploy them.

NATO would be foolish to escalate this level of provocation toward Russia. I can tell you from experience, my boots on the ground looking very carefully at the preparation within Russia, that Vladimir Putin is not bluffing. The Russian government has well prepared the Russian people on the possibility of war against segments of the “west” and perhaps all of NATO if needed.

When Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was questioned about his position on the long-range missile issue, here was his response.

Biden and Starmer have started walking things back AFTER Vladimir Putin made his remarks.

WASHINGTON DC – Keir Starmer has said the UK and US have come to a “strong position” in their quest for a resolution to the conflict in Ukraine following his meeting with President Joe Biden.

The Prime Minister described his discussions with Mr Biden as “long and productive”, but would not be drawn on what the pair had decided regarding Ukraine’s potential use of Western weaponry against Russian targets.

At the beginning of their meeting in the Blue Room at the White House in Washington DC on Friday, Mr Biden said “I don’t think much about Vladimir Putin” when asked about the Russian President’s threat of war with Nato.

Questioned on what they had decided in relation to Ukraine’s potential use of long-range missiles, Sir Keir told reporters: “We had a wide-ranging discussion about strategy in Ukraine, of course, in the Middle East and other parts of the world.
“This wasn’t a meeting about a particular capability. That wasn’t why we got our heads down today.

“It was to allow ourselves the space, which we took, the time, which we took, to have a strategic discussion so that tactical decisions could be seen within the wider strategy.

“It was a really good invitation from the President, we’ve had a very productive (meeting) and we’ve come to a strong position. I’m very pleased that we’ve had these discussions.” (read more)

Regarding NATO support….  France has already started to pause their support for Ukraine following the recent elections.  Germany has shifted their internal political discussions of support, following recent election in East Germany.  The elections in the NATO allies are having an influence and Vladimir Putin is obviously noting the same thing.

Following Secret Service Briefing, Democrat Senator Blumenthal Says Americans Should Prepare to Be “Shocked, Astonished and Appalled” About Lapses in Protection for Donald Trump


Posted originally on the CTH onSeptember 13, 2024 | Sundance

Yesterday, Acting Director of the U.S. Secret Service, Ronald Rowe, briefed members of the House and Senate about the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump.

Following the briefing Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn), told reporters that lawmakers “will have a report very, very soon that I think will absolutely shock the American people about the lapses and lags in protection that was afforded that day and the breakdown in communication, failure and responsibility.” Apparently, the USSS is going to use the ‘mistakes were made‘ justification for the failures in protection. WATCH:

(WASHINGTON DC) – Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe spoke with members of both the House and Senate in closed sessions Thursday to discuss the July 13 assassination attempt on former President Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Rowe briefed members in both chambers about the agency’s interim report examining the USSS’s security lapses that led to a gunman being able to scale a nearby building and open fire on Trump, just minutes into his rally. 

Rep. Jason Crow, D-Colo., the lead Democrat on the Trump Assassination Task Force told Fox News Digital that the briefing with Rowe was a “very lengthy and very candid discussion.”

“They discussed the … failings that occurred that day and what’s been done to fix it, as well as some of the resourcing constraints the Secret Service has faced this election cycle,” Crow said of Rowe’s briefing with lawmakers. “He made an outline of their internal report and briefed us on their internal mission evaluation, which is now complete.”

Fox News was previously informed that the overall mission assurance probe conducted by the Secret Service is nearly complete and will soon be made public. (read more)

Essex Police Employs Biometric AI Data!


Posted originally on Sep 13, 2024 by Martin Armstrong |

Those in Essex, England, may have recently seen facial recognition trucks driving through the streets discreetly compiling data. England has long employed CCT cameras to capture criminal activity, but police in Essex are now using advanced biometric data to track each and every citizen.

Essex is using Corsight AI biometric software for its civilian monitoring program. The company has expanded its services across the world. “Our mission is to radically enhance the world of facial recognition technologies while holding ourselves to the highest ethical standards in personal privacy protection,” the Israel-based company states on its website. They can embed their software within existing cameras and track down individuals based on their biometric data.

Biometric Police Enforcement System9

The ethics behind such measures present a challenge. Who has access to this wealth of data? Individual organizations in the UK must obtain permission and be transparent about their policies, but no such restrictions exist for the government. We have seen countless data breaches in recent years, with independent hacker groups infiltrating every supposedly secure data center. Civil liberties groups believe the government is infringing upon human rights by spying on their every move, but governments no longer permit individual freedoms.

The last significant law that was passed surrounding these measures was in 2018 when the UK put forth the Data Protection Act that details how personal data may be collected, processed, and protected by law. Naturally, the government claims that they are only collecting data for public safety and will not misuse the technology. The law remains vague and technology has certainly advanced since 2018.

Yet, the UK is calling Corsight AI a victory and citing clean-cut arrests made using the technology. “In Southend, there were also five positive alerts, which resulted in two arrests—one for harassment and one for sexual assault,” police stated. Police claim that Corsight AI is primarily monitoring known offenders, people on watchlists, and “protected vulnerable individuals at risk of harm.” The program claims it “almost instantly” deletes user data if they do not meet the aforementioned criteria.

“Our live facial recognition technology is used to locate people we want to speak to in connection with ongoing investigations and to manage people with court orders or conditions. Criminals cannot think they can walk around our communities without being caught,” claimed Assistant Chief Constable Andy Pritchard calls Essex Police.

UK Biometrics and Surveillance Camera Commissioner Fraser Sampson admits that private companies will have access to user data. “We, the people, are now using sophisticated surveillance tools once the preserve of state intelligence agencies, routinely and at minimal financial cost,” he writes. “We freely share personal datasets – including our facial images – with private companies and government on our smart devices for access control, identity verification and threat mitigation. From this societal vantage point it seems reasonable for the police to infer that many citizens not only support them using new remote biometric technology but also expect them to do so, to protect communities, prevent serious harm and detect dangerous offenders.”

All of this is based on the premise that the government is there to protect citizens rather than treating everyone like a potential criminal.

Other nations will soon adopt this technology that was once reserved for warzones. Israel is using the program in its hospitals to identify deceased victims from the war with Hamas. The Mall of America has employed the service to deter shoplifting but public surveillance measures in the US have been met with a pushback. Paris used the AI service to monitor the crowds at the Olympic games.

The government must tighten its grip on the public as we move into 2032. We have seen the government take tyrannical measures to restrict freedom of speech both in person and online. Now, governments want to track their citizens’ movements, and the public has no say in the matter.

Top Lobbyists of 2024


Posted Sep 13, 2024 by Martin Armstrong
Lobbyists2024

The US government operates on a pay-to-play basis. I’ve repeatedly called out lobbying groups who are openly permitted to bribe our politicians. A portion of these lobbyists circle within the government itself as it is one big revolving door. Open Secrets revealed the top lobbying groups in the United States. Notice a trend?

There are countless medical and pharmaceutical companies on this list, shelling out billions collectively to sway our politicians. It goes without saying that these lobbyists are actively working to prevent Donald Trump from entering the White House, especially now that he has partnered with Robert F. Kennedy to “Make America Healthy Again.” In Trump’s own words, the establishment hates him because he prevents lobbyists from shoving dollars in politician’s pockets at the expense of the people.

Trump was already wealthy when he entered the world of politics and has never needed the backing of lobbying groups. “They want to sell product I’m not interested in,” Donald Trump stated when asked why the establishment is trying to sink him. The former president mentions that he did not want to purchase military supplies, a nod to his unwillingness to side with the neocons and arm Ukraine. He calls the lobbying efforts from the pharmaceutical companies “interesting,” which is quite interesting as the Biden-Harris Administration claims they are cracking down on Big Pharma.

Lobbying.Votes_

Now, this list does not even include all of the Super PACs that are spending countless resources on swaying perception. For example, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) has spent over $100 million on influencing the US Federal elections. Those behind the curtain say that most politicians have their own go-to AIPAC representative who fills their personal coffers. Others donate to organizations that then use that money for lobbying efforts. The organizations listed above have already selected the candidates you may vote for, and once those candidates are in office, they are not there to serve the public but their own private interests.

RevolvingDoorLOBBYISTS

Lobbyists (and insider trading, perhaps through information from lobbyists) are the reason that politicians, public servants, become wealthy. Dianne Feinstein who passed away last October, for example, earned $200,000 annually, but after decades as a career politician, she died with a net worth of over $160 million. She pushed through green energy efforts while owning a $62 million Gulfstream G650 jet that she used to fly from mansion to mansion. Hillary Clinton encouraged her to die in office rather than step down as to not let a Republican take her seat. Why would any of these politicians retire when they are accumulating wealth while working a part-time job?

Washington accuses foreign forces of influencing US elections when we have organizations OPENLY BUYING POLITICIANS and public favor.

Luntz is Drunk Again


Posted originally on the CTH on September 12, 2024 | Sundance

You can make the argument that Frank Luntz is drunk and simultaneously accurate, that part might be true. However, failing to notice the transparency of his repeated drunkenness, while putting any weight of credibility on his opinion, is silly.

Excessive use of alcohol and Alcoholism is a common trait of those who live in Washington DC. You can attribute this commonality to whatever you want but the reality remains. There are a disproportionate number of people afflicted with the need to consume alcohol in/around our nation’s politics. Personally, I think that’s because when evil physically manifests, it exhibits common traits and behavioral patterns.

Now, some people will ask, “why do you point this out – rather than refute what he says?” To those voices I simply say, “what he does speaks so loudly, I cannot hear a word he’s saying.”

Put another way, Luntz’s influence and affluence is tied directly to the business end of politics in DC. If he doesn’t keep himself in the current status, he will lose his income stream. Luntz will do and say whatever gets him his next paycheck, his next drink etc same/same.

Learn the motives behind these shallow people, and you quickly learn how small & unimportant they are. Here is another example of the same issue.

Frank Luntz is a functional alcoholic. Evil sits on his shoulder playing a fiddle. He’s plastered

I keep track of this small stuff because ultimately all of their motives circle back to the same issue.

…Money, money, money…. That’s it!

The Democrat wing wants Power.

The Republican wing wants Money.

The proverbial Luntz’s are parasites riding the UniParty vulture.

Washington DC is the most vile, corrupt and Godless place in our nation; it is depressingly sad to see it collapsing further and further into the darkness of the abyss each year.  This is not a joke, snark or off-the-cuff comment intended to just frame things in a familiar context; it really is that bad -and worse- in Washington, DC.

Berlin Defies Beijing


Posted originally on Sep 12, 2024 by Martin Armstrong

GermanWarship

German warships have not passed through the Taiwan Strait in over two decades, but reports are circulating that Berlin plans to defy Bejing by permitting warships to pass through the Strait later this month. Germany is showing solidarity with NATO nations like Canada and the United States who have recently provoked tensions by making their maritime presence in the sensitive area known.

German Rear Admiral Axel Schulz told reporters that such a move would show Germany’s adherence to the world order and plans to “peacefully” resolve disagreements. Yet, China believes it can “peacefully” reunite with Taiwan if there is no interference. China is not concerned with Russia or other conflicts as it attempts to remain as neutral as possible despite being criticized for assisting Moscow. No, the primary issue China has with the West is its insistence on ending the One China policy with Taiwan.

While Germany will not make an official announcement before embarking on the Strait, they are giving China enough time to respond. The stated primary purpose of this military exercise is to remind China that no one has control over the South China Sea or Taiwan Strait. “We are reinforcing the freedom of navigation and stability in a strategically important region for us,” Bundestag member Michael Roth posted on X. “We stand for peace and security in the Taiwan Strait and oppose any unilateral and violent changes to the status quo by China. It is a misconception to think that leniency will lead China to reconsider,” he added while saying the move was not meant to provoke China.

Yet, Roth also said that he is concerned that “China is tightening its grip and changing the status quo daily.” Passing through the Strait will somehow de-escalate tensions and reduce the prospect of war. “A military conflict in the Taiwan Strait would have catastrophic consequences for Germany and the global economy, potentially even worse than the COVID-19 pandemic,” Roth added. True, a large portion of world trade travels through this passage but there could be no war between Taiwan and China unless Taiwan were backed by powerful allies.

China said it opposes any military actions that “provoke and endanger China’s sovereignty and security under the pretext of ‘freedom of navigation.’” President Xi remains firm on his goal to unify Taiwan with China and will go to any lengths to prevent interference. Furthermore, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said the Taiwan Strait itself belongs to China, despite a UN resolution stating otherwise. “The waters of the Taiwan Strait, from both shores toward the middle of the Strait, are China’s internal waters, then territorial sea, then contiguous zone, and then exclusive economic zone,” she added.

Germany and China are major trade partner and this move will likely result in damaged diplomatic relations if not outright sanctions from China. Berlin has not seen the need to enter those waters since 2002. This is all part of the bigger plan of NATO to instigate the next world war by showing China that its enemies are growing bolder, and its claim to Taiwan is in jeopardy.

Dick Cheney The Warmonger Endorses Kamala – WHY? WW III?

REPLY: Every Neocon has endorsed Kamala. WHY? That indeed says it all, including the Godfather of the Iraq War – Dick Cheney. I am shocked that either the press is so stupid, or they are in the pocket of the Neocons and are cheering World War III to increase their coverage, as was the case with Pulitzer vs Hearst, who started the Spanish-American War on fake news to sell papers. Dick Cheney would NOT be coming out for Kamala if she was just another liberal. They would NOT do that. I know Bill Kristol. He destroyed his magazine by not supporting Trump back in 2015 and supported Hillary because it was Bill’s father who even allegedly started the Neocon movement.

Neocons will flip back and forth, for what drives them is war.  This is not some deep secret. It is widely discussed at cocktail parties. The very fact that NONE of these mainstream journalists would even dare say anything along these lines or QUESTION why every single Republican Neocon who claims we can defeat Russia in three days is endorsing Kamala. This is unquestionable PROOF; this is a choice between World War III and America’s survival in this Neocon Imperial Agenda to conquer the world.

I wouldn’t say I like the forecasts coming out of Socrates. These are NOT my opinions. Almost every intelligence agency internationally tunes into our site because they know this is NOT my opinion. This is the forecast of the only real AI computer with a 50-year track record, when all of these people claim they have AI, and it is nothing remotely close. Writing a program and saying everyone who bought this also liked that it is not AI. That’s a simple correlation with no real intellectual analysis whatsoever.

As Bob Dyland asked, How Many Times Can a Man Turn his Head and pretend he just doesn’t see?
