QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, You say you are not clairvoyant. However, you know more things than anyone geopolitically from there might be an assassination of Trump to Turkey will see to resurrect the Ottoman Empire. Some of us would like to know how you get so many things right when people think they are off the wall when you say them. It would be enlightening to listen to your response.

Thank you for all you do

Turkish Lira 1985 Conference

ANSWER: Look, I think the difference is that people do not understand history and think that the past has no bearing on the future. History repeats because human nature never changes. In addition to a fast recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, the macroeconomic policies in Turkey and high commodity prices have contributed to surging inflation even on a nominal basis, but then there has been significant currency inflation, and the US greenback has soared against the Turkish lira. This lethal combination has caused growing external imbalances that are intermixed with implicit liabilities.

Turkish Lira Combined Y 7 28 24

As we can see, the US greenback has soared against the Turkish lira. Erdogan’s dream was to resurrect the Ottoman Empire, which ended when it was defeated and dissolved in 1908—1922. Now, with the economic conditions being deplorable, Erdogan needs an external enemy. The Arab nation-states are sympathetic toward Russia since they see that Israel is a protectorate of the United States. Erdogan is playing to the Arab world, and since Turkey has the most significant military force in the Middle East, he hopes to be seen as the savior and resurrect the Ottoman Empire, which just so happened to have included Israel.

If you have never been to Greece or Turkey, you are unaware that the hatred between these two nations dates back to Alexander the Great’s time. For Greece to even come out and make a statement that they can attack Turkey by surprise does not help the crisis.

Turkey will defend the Arabs against Israel, and the tensions between Greece and Turkey, both NATO countries, will lead to Turkey exiting this NATO alliance. They will join with Russia, which most of the Arab world supports. This is nothing new. This is merely how nation-states will always respond without exception.

So stay tuned for more fun and games. But when a country is in economic crisis, it needs an external enemy, and NATO offers nothing in return for their loyalty.

A Reminder About Information and Research


Posted originally on the CTH on July 28, 2024 | Sundance

After writing the recent article outlining the modern history of the FBI [SEE HERE] a lot of messages and emails flood in.  Here’s a quick reminder for those who use CTH as a reference resource and research library for information.

CTH was founded because everyone seemed more comfortable pretending about the journey than admitting our predictable destination.  From the outset, and with a long view of the challenges we would face, I have repeatedly stated that everything on this website would be free for the taking.

The truth has no agenda, it just sits there -out there somewhere- waiting to be discovered. Our feelings about it are irrelevant to its existence. The core of our assembly is to look deeply at uncomfortable things, then accept them as they are and not as we would wish/pretend them to be.  We are now in the middle of a fully Orwellian information control operation.  A DHS reconfiguration of the U.S. information communication network as we know it.

As a direct result, the voices who put accurate context to our national challenge are targets.  Information is now being categorized according to definitions by people who do not have good intents.  The blocking, censorship and categorization of information is intended to stop any/all information averse to the interests of a few powerful institutions.

Now, perhaps people see why the CTH ‘free information’ cornerstone was set. The truth has no agenda!

Everything you read and review upon these pages is free for the taking.

Anyone, for any reason, can take any content I produce and use it to advance the honest effort of providing raw unfiltered truth to their audience.  Everything is available for use free, without any attribution or citation if necessary. 

All that I provide is free and can be modified, changed, enhanced in part or whole to meet your needs. Images, writing, research, analysis, all of it is provided, along with no expectation of citation or attribution dependent on your motives and intents.

Make the words your own; use them in part or modify to make a more intelligent or comprehensive outline. All the accompanying graphics are available to use as would suit your interests.

Importantly, all the research is cited and verifiable.  This includes all the pdf files, government documents, FOIA outcomes and uploads to the SCRIBD account.   Take anything you want; thanks, sincerely, but no need to ask permission.  [Ex. FBI ARTICLE]

We are not going to save this republic by demanding or restricting information via self-important perspectives on citation or attribution. I simply do not care about such issues. Make it your own in whatever manner or format fits your interests.

We maintain the voluminous reference library as a documented resource for everyone.  Please accept this thankful reminder with the expressed intent.

If you are brave enough to stand in front of the furnace, you have my full and unwavering support and appreciation.  You are simply considered my brother or sister.  It’s ok, just take it. Anything provided here at CTH is yours to take, whole or in part and make it your own.

This is how we ensure our small contribution to a much larger awakening.

Effective solutions require brutally accurate understanding.

…”There is no such thing as “disinformation” or “misinformation”.  There is only information you accept and information you do not accept.  You were not born with a requirement to believe everything you are told; rather, you were born with a brain that allows you to process the information you receive and make independent decisions.”… 

I will always work earnestly to be deserving of your fellowship. As new visitors attest every day, the fellowship in this commenting community is unique, insightful, articulate, intelligent, funny and awesome.  I love you guys.

With humble appreciation and the warmest of regards, Sundance

Remember, we are inside every facility, every institution, every meeting, every moment of their existence – and we notice everything. We are there when they do not expect, and we melt away before they notice our appearance. We see what they hide, we hear what they whisper, we decipher their codes, and we understand the complexity they create in their effort to conceal. We go to the places we know they will travel.  We have allies and resources inside the core of their machinery. We understand what and why everything is being constructed, and we share all the information we discover.  The truth isn’t mean, it’s just The Truth.   

Pentagon Misplaces Billions in Aid to Ukraine AGAIN


Posted originally on Jul 29, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Pentagon 2

The US Defense Department quietly admitted to the US Government Accountability Office (GAO) that has misplaced an additional $2 billion in military funding to Ukraine. Not so coincidentally, the Pentagon also misplaced an alarming $6.2 billion in military funding for Ukraine in June 2023 “due to accounting errors.”

The Pentagon has NEVER ONCE passed an audit. America’s favorite money laundering service is paid for by the taxpayers, who have no say in how the money is spent or laundered, for that matter. Did the money go to contractors? Politicians? Ukraine? The government refuses to say. The latest $2 trillion is a drop in the bucket as the agency has managed to “misplace” TRILLIONS in funds over the years.

Yet, this same agency is always calling on Congress to approve more funding to Ukraine. The president has the ability to allocate funding from US stockpiles to Ukraine under the Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA) under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. The Government Accountability Office has said that the Foreign Assistance Act is vague, preventing them from dutifully carrying out an audit. The DoD also approved an additional $150 million in military aid for Ukraine at the beginning of the month. Biden continues to approve funding to these agencies despite the ongoing “accounting errors.”

The government allegedly attempted to audit the Pentagon in 2023, spending $187 million to carry out the investigation through 1,600 auditors. Only 7 of the 29 sub-audits passed, and half of the claimed assets were unrecoverable. It has been a long-known issue that the Pentagon conveniently misplaces money and is never held accountable for its actions that amount to THEFT against the American people.

This is a HUGE SUM OF MONEY that could easily end hunger, homelessness, water shortages, improve education, and fix America’s broken infrastructure. Instead, those at the top approve endless billions to pass through the Pentagon where it mysteriously vanishes. WHY IS NO ONE HELD ACCOUNTABLE? The government is openly permitting the Pentagon to launder money at this point.

Way Beyond Sketchy – Local Butler County SWAT Team Says Trump Secret Service Detail Did Not Communicate with Them Before Shooting


Posted originally on the CTH on July 28, 2024 | Sundance

There are a growing number of voices pointing very specifically at the U.S. Secret Service and saying the level of incompetency in Butler County, Pennsylvania, was not accidental.

Indeed, as the fact pattern emerges, despite -and perhaps because of- the lack of public press briefings by DHS and the Secret Service leadership, a strong argument is now gaining momentum that USSS intentionally set President Trump up to be assassinated.  In this horrifically possible scenario, ‘willful blindness’ is the best alternative.

Putting further fuel on the possibility of an intended collapse of security, the local Butler County SWAT team is now telling the public that Secret Service officials never met with them, nor provided secure communications channels between the SWAT members and the Secret Service.  The SWAT team had no way to tell the USSS of the threat they saw moving toward President Trump. This detailed revelation is very troubling.  WATCH:

I am not at all surprised that First Lady Melania Trump now wants to keep Barron Trump as far away from American politics as possible.

The absence of specific government press conferences remains ‘the dog that didn’t bark’.

Sunday Talks – Senator Ron Johnson Provides Information About Trump Assassination Attempt from Govt Officials


Ron Johnson Provides Information About Trump Assassination Attempt

Posted originally on the CTH on July 28, 2024 | Sundance

Senator Ron Johnson is the former chair of the Homeland Security Committee.  Johnson’s staff have been sending letters to various agencies responsible for presidential security, in an effort to find out as much information as possible about the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania.

It has only been two weeks since an assassin attempted to kill President Trump, while murdering a rally attendee and critically injuring two others.  However, most of the corporate media have dropped the subject and quickly rushed to the coronation of Kamala “brat” Harris.   In an attempt to diminish the issue, Google has even removed search qualifiers for the Trump assassination attempt.  Google doesn’t do this without active participation with DHS and the Intelligence Community.

Ron Johnson talks to Fox News about the briefings he and his staff have received from DHS and Secret Service officials. WATCH:

The Lights Went Out in Paris


Posted originally on the CTH on July 28, 2024 | Sundance 

After a vile, degenerate and blasphemous opening ceremony to the Olympics in Paris France, on the first day of competition the region suffered a total power failure.

Well, almost a total power failure.

You see, in the top of the picture showing the blackout, you might notice one area completely unaffected. That is the Sacre Coeur Church, the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

.

A loving God will not be mocked. The light of Jesus Christ can’t be overcome by the darkness of man.

Our faith is steadfast. God is in control.

I find myself with tears.

I cherish the message.

.

Additionally, always remember….

…. The need for control is a reaction to fear!

Demons fear the light.

Evil is dependent on whispers and dark imaginings.

When you shine the light upon them, they will always retreat.

Steadfast.  Love to all.

The Trust in Government is Collapsing – Is Anything Real Anymore?


Posted Jul 28, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 
2032 Date

As we head into the end of this cycle in 2032, this process concerns the collapse of Republican forms of government. We are rapidly approaching the collapse of Republican forms of government on a global scale, and I believe that this has become far more obvious since the COVID-19 scam. Even in Germany, friends think that something has seriously changed. We are dealing with the collapse of complete confidence and belief in the government itself, regardless of where it is on a global scale. This video is interesting, and it calls into question the tactics used by the government. The West always claims Putin has a double. Is the pot calling the kettle black?

Let us see what unfolds in the weeks ahead. The rumor is Biden will grant all illegals citizenship so they can change the politics of the country by creating a Democrat Progressive Dictatorship with one-party rule. Then, Biden will resign by September and let Harris become president to show the world she can do the job. In reality, she is just replacing a hand puppet and letting the Neocons continue to run our lives unimpeded as Blinkin and Garland, along with Nuland, use their Jewish heritage to fend off any criticism of their manipulations of society and thirst for war as just antisemitism.

Trump Putin Puppet

They want NATO to create a false flag before the election to start a war against Russia. NATO will be beyond any congressional investigation – the perfect cover to start World War III. Haliburton moved to Dubai to escape scrutiny over the Gulf War. They will take Trump’s anti-war stance once again and call him Putin’s Puppet. Let’s see if they pull off this agenda. Our computer warns NOBODY WILL ACCEPT THIS ELECTION regardless of who wins.

Paine Common Sense
End of Paine
1 ECM 1882 1929 1934

We will have to go through this until the majority of people simply reach the conclusion that there is no trust left in those who wish to preside over us. The last collapse in government worldwide was all about monarchy. Nobody put it better than Thomas Paine (1737-1809) in his publication Common Sense. That was the inspiration that stirred the people to action. This is just part of the progress we see cyclically throughout human history. It is the political version of Schupeter’s Wave of Creative Destruction.  The British even issued political tokens picturing the hanging of Paine.

Here is the last Private Wave #155 (1882.45-1934.05).  We can see that a number of financial panics began during the third wave. That corresponded to the Panic of 2007-2009, which some call the Great Recession. The Fourth Wave marked the beginning of the Progressive Era in 1912, and that corresponded with the peak in government we saw in 2015.75. Instead of socialism, Trump was sworn in precisely on the Pi target to the very day, representing the opposite of the 1912 Progressive era. Would War I follow as we now see our world leaders are all pushing for World War III so they can (1) default on their debts and (2) hope to strip-mine Russia of all its natural wealth and resources? This previous wave peaked in 1929 and began the Great Depression, ending with Socialism and FDR confiscating gold. Hitler came to power precisely on the Pi Target from the to in, and there was a worldwide sweep of whoever was in power thrown out, marking the rise of FDR, Hitler, and Mao.

As in Physics, every action causes an equal and opposite reaction. Until we learn to live with the cycles and stop trying to manipulate society to create this fictional perfect world that cannot exist, as was the case with Communism, then perhaps, like a dog, we will one day shake off this political manipulation and just for once advance as a society.

Marx ten commandments socialism

Communism was tried in ancient Sparta, Greece. As I have said before, this city-state never issued coins. Yet they waged war against Athens and defeated the land of freedom and democracy in 404 BC. Karl Marx drew much on this segment of history, including the writings of Aristotle. Even Joseph and the Pharoach’s Biblical story is a blueprint for living with the cycles.

Joseph Interprets Pharaoh

I see the world as the Biblical story of Joseph telling the Pharaoh there will be seven years of plenty and seven years of drought. This story attempts to tell us that there is a business cycle, and we better live with it. If you know when the cycle will turn down, you then prepare to live with it and reduce its impact on society.

Keynes Marx Interventionists

Both Keynes and Marx pushed the theory that the government possessed the power to alter the direction of the economy. Neither man understood the complexity of the global economy and how we are all interconnected. If it were not for World War I and II, the capital would never have shifted from Europe to America, replacing London as the Financial Capital of the World.

MAA on War

Even when we look at war, this has plagued human society for thousands of years. War comes when economic distress is set in motion just as the Barbarians smelly weakness in Rime and then struck. Some sought to wage wars of conquest. However, once an empire has risen to its maximum state, then the political corruption internally eats away at it like a cancer from within. Thus, all empires, nations, and city-states are buried in a common grave because, as a collective society, we seem to be incapable of learning from the past mistakes of others, and inevitably, that ensures that history will always repeat itself. It would be fantastic if we actually advanced as a society politically, rather than just technologically.

It’s a Recession Not a Depression


Posted originally on Jul 26, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Recession Global

The government insists that the economy is fine, thriving perhaps, and has asked the public to pay no mind to their current financial situation. No one, aside from those living off government assistance, are better off now than they were four years ago. Americans cannot be gas lit into believing the economy is sound when every social-economic group is suffering.

Americans have already lost confidence in the economy and, therefore, in the government.

A recent poll by Affirm found that 3 in 5 Americans believe the US is in a recession, and most believe that recession began in March 2023. Another poll from Guardian/Harris found that 56% of Americans feel that the recession has already arrived. Seven in 10 Americans have reported that they are unable to save for the future. About 68% of respondents from the Affirm poll believe inflation has caused the recession, but few realize what causes inflation.

Credit card debt has reached an all-time high, with 8.9% of balances falling into delinquency as of May 2024. Bankruptcies are on the rise both personal and corporate. A CNN poll discovered that 39% of Americans worry that they may no longer be able to pay their bills. The poll saw similar sentiments during the Great Recession when 37% of Americans feared the next round of bills. Moody’s Analytics believes that household spending has risen $925 per month compared to three years due to inflation. Sixty-five percent of respondents said that the cost of living crisis is the most significant issue our nation faces. Politicians would be wise to focus on domestic issues as the people are on the brink.

Americans are spending more on less as economic conditions have begun to impact the average person’s quality of life. CNN also reported that 35% of adults are taking on second jobs to combat the price of living. Sixty-nine percent are spending less on entertainment, a correlation we have seen with corporate bankruptcies primarily rising in non-essential sectors. Another 41% say they cut down on driving to save on energy costs. Sixty-eight percent of American families have had to cut back on grocery spending, despite US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen denying food inflation entirely.

Bidenomics failed. We are in a recession but not a depression. People hoard when they fear for the future, and that is happening not only as a result of economic conditions but geopolitical tensions and war will cause people to spend less. Then, to fund these wars and other spending packages, the government raises taxes, which is always recessionary. The computer had long warned that the American economy would turn down in May 2024 and not resurface until 2028.
