Tucker Carlson Interviews Steve Bannon About Upcoming 4 Month Prison Sentence


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

Steven Bannon is the former White House Chief Strategist and Senior Counselor to President Donald Trump. Mr Bannon currently hosts The War Room podcast on Rumble and is very familiar to CTH readers.

Steve Bannon was subpoenaed by the politically motivated J6 Committee, then referred for criminal prosecution when he refused to comply with their demands citing “executive privilege.” After a political trial and DC conviction, last week a federal judge instructed Bannon to report to prison on July 1st to begin his 4-month sentence for the misdemeanor crime of refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena.  The entire background is completely enmeshed in political targeting.

Hillary Releases Merchandise Ahead of Endorsement

TurnsOutSheWasRight.HillaryClinton2024

The Democrats are preparing to switch out the only candidate they have permitted to run. The mainstream media has begun reporting on Biden’s faults in a calculated move to prepare the public for the big switch. The Democrats believe Hillary Clinton is the only one who could beat Donald Trump. She secured the popular vote in 2018, and they know she is not merely aligned with the establishment but is also one of the ringleaders. Why else would a “former” politician begin releasing merchandise?

Hillary took to social media amid the Trump witch hunt trial to boast that she was right all along. “Turns out she was right all along” has become Clinton’s new catchphrase and reminds the public why they simply cannot stand this smug woman. Her merchandise features her new phrase along with an image of her sipping tea.

“We recently had some new merch made based on a phrase I hear a lot. The design happened to be finalized today. With your purchase, you’ll support Onward Together groups defending democracy… and get a pretty great mug to sip tea from,” Hillary Clinton wrote in a post to Instagram.

Clinton is also poking fun at her past illegal activities that Trump attacked her on to downplay their seriousness. “But her emails,” is another catchphrase that people can purchase on hats, shirts, tote bags, or mugs. She also has released a number of items highlighting abortion as she believes that one-issue voters will automatically vote her in. “It shouldn’t be harder to obtain an abortion than an AR-15,” one of her slogans says. “None of us should accept a future in which our daughters and granddaughters have fewer rights than we do,” another reads.

Similar to how Joe Biden demanded all black Americans cast a vote for him, saying their entire race would be in question if they didn’t vote blue, Hillary wrongly assumes all women will vote for her. She came out the other week to blame women voters for her last election loss, stating that they expected her to be “perfect” and let her down. “They left me because they just couldn’t take a risk on me, because as a woman, I’m supposed to be perfect. They were willing to take a risk on Trump — who had a long list of, let’s call them flaws, to illustrate his imperfection — because he was a man, and they could envision a man as president and commander in chief,” she told a news outlet.

Forget wars or the cost of living crisis – why doesn’t half of the population want abortions above all else? Clinton is completely out of touch with the average American.

The super PAC supporting her merchandise is the same one that she personally created in 2016 when she was a presidential nominee. Donald Trump has every outlet imaginable creating merchandise in his favor because he is extremely popular with the people. Hillary is using her own political organization, Onward Together, to begin campaigning.

“Onward Together is an American political action organization founded by Hillary Clinton the former U.S. Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton to fundraise for progressive political groups including: Swing Left, Indivisible, Color of Change, Emerge America, and Run for Something.”

Onward Together supports the establishment, primarily women within it. The group has raised $63 million for Democratic establishment candidates and progressive organizations. To support those narratives, it donates to partners like Black Lives Matter and Planned Parenthood. As you can see in the video above, Onward Together would like to position itself as a group that helps those skeptical of government, yet it is represented and supported by the deep state.

Hillary Clinton simply will not accept that the American people do not want her to be their president. It will not prevent her from attempting to run for POTUS yet again this November.

Lindsey Graham on the Real Reason Behind Ukraine


Posted originally on Jun 12, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

What happened to the story that “Putin attacked Ukraine unprovoked, and Ukraine was just defending itself, etc”? Now, suddenly, the problem is the natural resources in Donbas, not Ukraine itself. The first victim in war is always the truth. These people have NEVER told the truth about any war EVER!!!!!!

Crimia Gas 1

I have stated before that there is a huge natural gas reserve under Crimea. All the Neocons are doing is constantly trying to conquer Russia and bankrupt it so they can invade, and it has been the same scenario constantly. Obama wanted to invade Syria, and Putin came to their aid. this was all about a pipeline they wanted to put through Syria to cut off Russian energy sales to Europe. The Neocons orchestrated the blowing up of Nord Stream. That undermined Germany and Europe – but as Victoria Nuland famously said, “Fuck the EU.

The question of Palestinian reserves was confirmed back in 2019. I covered the gas reserves in Syria’s occupied Golan Heights in 2017 involving Genie Oil. Obama wanted to invade Syria all for pipelines. What the press reports never connects the dots. Obama was pushing for a pipeline through Syria to stop Russia from supplying energy to Europe. This has been a war against Russia for decades.

The Neocons after blowing up Nord Stream, promised to pay for a pipeline from Nigeria to Europe. When the Niger coup took place, that is why Victoria Nuland was on a plane to Niger. US taxpayers fund the Neocon dreams of war. We blow up Nord Stream and then pay for a pipeline from Nigeria.  The deal with Nigeria was that they had to be the first Digital Currency guinea pig, and the US taxpayer would fund a pipeline from them to Europe to cut off energy sales from Russia.

Now Lindsey Graham has come out and admitted that the “resources” under Crimea are worth $10 to #12 trillion, and this is again to stop Russia from gaining that natural gas.

As I said before, I was solicited to put in $10 billion to take over Russia back in 1999. I refused. The story was that I would earn 10x that amount. They were looking at the vast wealth of natural resources. Make no mistake, this is a conquest agenda to strip Russia of all its assets. Napoleon and Hitler attempted the same for the same reasons. In 1917, Russia had the largest gold reserves EVER in the world. They hid them so the Communists would not get them. To this day, nobody knows where they are.

Ukraine War Wealth

Our sources are saying that the Ukrainian casualties, civilian and military, will most likely exceed 1 million. As I said before, nobody expected Ukraine to win. This has been all about weakening Russia, and then NATO will walk in. NOBODY cares anything about the Ukrainian people. This is not about protecting the poor Syrians from chemical weapons from the government. It was about a pipeline. It is always a lie. I was in Japan when there was a huge protest against sending troops to the Gulf War. The people BLAMED their military, who always were also NEOCONS, for bringing Japan to destruction. All I ever heard was an apology for their government. One day, the West will wake up and come to the same conclusion. We are being betrayed by the enemies within.

In his Face the Nation Interview, Lindsey Grahm said the same shit I was told back in 1999 – get Russia’s wealth. He said:

“It’s now time to give them the F-16s, let them fly the planes, long range artillery to hit targets inside of Russia. Go after Putin’s assets, wherever they’re at, all over the world. Go on the offensive. I think this summer, Ukraine will regain military momentum.”

….

“But what did Trump do to get the weapons flowing? He created a loan system. They’re sitting on 10 to $12 trillion of critical minerals in- in Ukraine. They could be the richest country in all of Europe. I don’t want to give that money and those assets to Putin to share with China. If we help Ukraine now, they can become the best business partner we ever dreamed of, that 10 to $12 trillion of critical mineral assets could be used by Ukraine and the West, not given to Putin and China. This is a very big deal how Ukraine ends. Let’s help them win a war we can’t afford to lose. Let’s find a solution to this war. But they’re sitting on a gold mine. To give Putin 10 or $12 trillion for critical minerals that he will share with China is ridiculous.”

Macron and Biden Now Lying Russian Assets at Zelensky’s Feet

Zelensky Money Hungry

Macron and Biden do not represent their respective nations as they act in ways that are an utter detriment to national interests. The French and American leaders have agreed to surrender frozen Russian aid to Ukraine in the form of a loan.

The West confiscated around $280.9 billion from Russia, which Reuters believe generate up to 3.5 billion euros in annual profit. US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has been pleading to release these stolen funds to Ukraine.

“It is necessary and urgent for our coalition to find a way to unlock the value of these immobilized assets to support Ukraine’s continued resistance and long-term reconstruction,” Yellen claimed in February 2024, adding,  “I believe there is a strong international law, economic, and moral case for moving forward. This would be a decisive response to Russia’s unprecedented threat to global stability.”

Talks are ongoing, but the US is prepared to service $50 billion of the forthcoming loan. The G7 nations (the UK, Italy, France, Canada, Germany, and Japan) are slated to support this move.

Russian Tank 1

On the D-Day event this year, where Macron and Biden disrespected proud veterans by calling for a new global conflict, Biden apologized to Zelensky for withholding aid and blamed the conservatives. Need I remind you the NEOCONS are on both sides of the aisle?

Lindsey Graham said, “President Zelenskyy, he lit up like a Christmas tree,” when he suggested handing over frozen assets to Ukraine AND seizing additional Russian assets still in the US. “We have Russian money in America we should seize. We should make Russia a state sponsor of terrorism under U.S. law,” he also commented. Graham went as far as to say that the money the West stole from Russian citizens was actually Putin’s money, and he was the thief responsible for their loss.

State terrorism? Do we freeze the assets of any nation acting in a way that displeases the US? Should we sanction China as well for Taiwan? The Chinese are certainly wondering if that is what is to come, and they have long stopped buying US debt. It is as if the United States just detonated an economic nuke on itself.

Russia has repeatedly stated that it would consider misusing these assets, which were illegally confiscated in the first place, an act of war. Putin has been rather patient in allowing these funds to sit idle. The G7 is declaring this a LOAN, meaning they feel entitled to these stolen assets. They know that Ukraine does not have the ability to repay this “loan,” and as we have seen countless times, no amount will ever be sufficient for Zelensky. This move may be the catalyst that sets the stage for the next portion of this growing global conflict.

Biden and Macron Bow to Zelensky at D-Day Event


Posted Jun 10, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

US President Joe Biden met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to once again discuss America’s role in funding Ukraine’s war with Russia. Biden publicly apologized to Zelensky for delaying the $61 billion aid package, as US Senators have stalled the bill in a failed attempt to coerce Biden to invest in his own country. The entire D-Day memorial was shamefully transformed into a public spectacle to promote the West’s war against Russia.

I apologize for those weeks of not knowing what’s going to happen in terms of funding. Some of our very conservative members [of Congress] were holding it up. But we got it done, finally,” Biden said. “We’re still in. Completely. Thoroughly.” Where is his apology to Americans for recklessly spending to the point of no return on endless wars that he will expect them to die in for an unjust cause? Now America can’t let Russia actually win this war that the West carefully orchestrated. Prolonging the war is dependent upon Western funding.

Zelensky compared the situation with Russia to World War II, ironically, and said the United States and Ukraine must stand “shoulder to shoulder.” Zelensky said it was once again America’s duty to “save Europe.” Biden obliged by committing another $224 million to Ukraine.

President Macron of France was also on board with celebrating a future Ukrainian victory rather than honoring the troops in attendance. “I’m sure that a day will come when Ukraine will see the same jets in our skies that we saw in Normandy skies yesterday,” Zelensky later told French politicians. “Your combat aviation, brilliant fighter jets under Ukrainian pilots’ command will prove that Europe is stronger, stronger than evil which dared to threaten it.”

Romanticizing the idea of another world war on D-Day is one of the most pathetic propaganda techniques yet. I doubt the veterans in attendance would want any young men to endure that suffering on behalf of politicians who do not care about the people they represent. These world leaders are keen on ushering in World War III regardless of the will of the people.

Fed vs Treasury – Hillary vs Obama

Fed v Congress1

COMMENT: A friend watched your interview on USAWatchdog, and his response was that you were wrong that the FED doesn’t need anyone to buy the debt. The FED can print as much money as Congress cares to spend. I was stunned that he did not comprehend that the FED is not the issuer of the debt—that’s the Treasury. I think some people do not understand the fiscal vs. monetary system. It might help the novices if you elaborated on that.

He said he never heard about that January 6th coup. I told him that you informed paying clients within a few weeks of January 6th about what went down. I’m glad you finally put that out for the general public. I know it was risky back then.

Is the computer able to forecast Michelle Obama vs. Hillary being drafted?

BTW. Great interview.

WL

Supply Demand

REPLY: I think you have a point. Many people have been confused by the constant pretense that the FED runs everything. I suppose that emerged because of the Quantitative Easing (QE). When you hear there is a deficit of $7 trillion or whatever, that is the FISCAL side that has nothing to do with the FED. They do not issue the debt; that is the Treasury. The Federal Reserve can ONLY set the short-term interest rate. Long-term rates, such as mortgages, are set by the private sector based on supply/demand.

10 3mn yield curve

When there is a financial panic, people run for cash – short-term as assets and long-term debt declines. You will see an INVERTED yield curve at times when the short-term rates go above the long-term. We saw a rash of bank failures when rates went up because the short-term was virtually zero, and they were buying the long-term. However, when short-term rates rose, bonds took a nose-dive because you then must compensate for that increase in the interest rate for the full duration of the bond.

Gold Inflation

Now, the question that the government CANNOT default because it can print the money is the typical lack of understanding, mainly because that was a sales pitch to sell gold. Here is an old advertisement to sell gold from the early 1980s. The problem was gold declined for 19 years while the deficits continued to rise. The inflation scenario did not work!

Gold declined for 19 years

Look, the war and default go hand-in-hand. The Treasury will default on foreign holders who they deem to be adversaries – this is why China is starting to sell. The notion that the Fed would simply print all the money to redeem the outstanding debt is absurd. That would ruin the economy and they will have no part of that besides it would bailout the enemy. This is why last December Powell came out and warned that this debt is “UNSUSTAINABLE.” They might monetize some portion that is domestic to prevent a panic, but they have no intention of monetizing the nation’s debt as a whole.

Federal_Debt_Held_by_Foreign_and_International_Investors_6 9 24
Federal_Debt_Held_by_Federal_Reserve_Banks 6 9 24

Much of the debt is held inter-agency. They can play games with that bunch. They will not simply default on ALL the debt without war. Then you have a NEW government form that will not honor the debt of the previous.

Hillary Cartoon

As far as Hillary vs Obama, this is NOT my opinion. The computer cannot forecast Hillary vs Obama without putting in their personal life ECMs. All I can say is that the Neocons are behind Hillary, for they KNOW she will nuke Russia. Some are talking about Hillary with Obama as VP, so they think they will get the Black Vote.

Trump to get a Mistrial in NYC’s Legal Persecution?


Posted originally on Jun 8, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Merchan Judge Juan

I have returned from a two-week tour in Europe, and I can tell you that both the LEFT and RIGHT in European governments are appalled at this trial that Trump has been subjected to especially after I wrote to explain that Juan Manuel Merchan is not an actual judge but is only a prosecutor “ACTING” as a judge. Most curious, since Merchan is NOT a formal judge and is ONLY an acting justice of the New York State Supreme Court in New York County, this raises serious questions given his clear conflicts of interest. How did a former prosecutor become not just an ACTING judge but also be assigned to this case? New York City is a cesspool of corruption dating back to the days when the Mafia installed their judges to rule the city.

This is not just a possible rigged proceeding; it is also UNCONSTITUTIONAL insofar as the alleged crime is a federal crime when this ACTING JUDGE has no subject matter jurisdiction in a state court to preside over a federal crime. This is smelling increasingly like a political hit job to interfere in the 2024 election.

Acting Judge Merchan has now emailed both sides in this UNCONSTITUTIONAL “Hush Money” Business Records Felony Case of Donald Trump, alerting them to a potential problem with the Jury. Merchan sent an email notifying both sides that Jurors are not permitted to commence deliberations until AFTER the case ends. They were also not to discuss the case with each other or with outsiders prior to the case ending.

This Judge needs an escape route, for I can confirm institutions are getting out of NYC because of this case. Merchan now informs that almost ALL the jurors in the Trump trial broke those two instructions from the court not to discuss the case.  Apparently, one Juror told his cousin that “Trump is getting convicted” one day before the conviction took place unless they all discussed the case and decided before it was over.

Merchan Letter

Merchan People v DJT 6-7-24 Letter to Parties

Here is Merchan’s letter to both parties. It is brief and notifies them of a comment posted to the New York State Court System’s Facebook page.

“Today, the Court became aware of a comment that was posted on the Unified Court System’s public Facebook page and which I now bring to your attention. In the comment, the user, ‘Michael Anderson,’ states: ‘My cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting convicted. Thank you folks for all your hard work!!!!”

2024_06_08_10_52_58_Joyce_Alene_on_X_And_here_s_the_post_from_Michael_Anderson_that_set_it_off._

The posting also included a party emoji and a heart emoji, suggesting that the purported poster was happy with the verdict.

The comment, now labeled as one week old, responded to a routine UCS notice, posted on May 29, 2024, regarding oral arguments” in an unrelated case in the court’s Appellate Division, Merchan wrote.

The Manhattan jury voted unanimously on May 31 – two days after that – to convict the former president of falsifying business records to hide a hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election. Trump is the first former U.S. president convicted of a crime. Clearly, this is a mistrial. The BILLION DOLLAR QUESTION is, will this judge dismiss the case now because it was clearly for political purposes when Bill Clinton paid $850,000 to silence also a sexual allegation compared to $130,000 for Stormy Daniels?

Merchan is now in a dark room historically and is trying to find the door, which is the emergency exit for the way out, but the sign is not lit. This is his escape exit =- but will he take it? Trump could NEVER get a fair trial in New York City – they do not exist! The polls have not turned against Trump, and he has used this to demonstrate that Biden has weaponized the law to try to hold on to power for the Neocons. They know they cannot use this pretend conviction, especially now, as a talking point. If anything, this PROVES that Trump can NEVER get a fair trial in NYC, Washington DC, or Georgia. Even in the Florida case, this also UNCONSTITUTIONALLY appointed Special Prosecutor who is not a prosecutor, not sanctioned or reviewed by Congress, and unsupervised by the DOJ, indicted Trump for the Florida case using a Washington DC Grand Jury. The Sixth Amendment states you must be charged where the crime occurred – that is, Florida – not Washington, DC. –“WHICH DISTRICT SHALL HAVE BEEN PREVIOUSLY ASCERTAINED BY LAW”

Sixth Amendment

The entire purpose of the Sixth Amendment was that the King would indict you in England for a crime he alleged took place in the Colonies. You would be taken to London in chains, thrown in prison, starved, and then put on trial in England, where the jury was already prejudiced against Colonists as New York City was against Trump. This is what has to be gutted. The government should NEVER be able to bring criminal charges – EVER, except for acts directly against the government. All other “crimes” between two private people should be off-limits!!!!

Mill on Liberty
Magna Carta King John

That was the Magna Carta, and when the King was forced to end his tyranny of fining people for revenue, that is when he changed the law to still get fines. He transformed a private dispute “disturbed his peace” and reinstituted his tyranny as we are witnessing today against Trump. Even in the case of the assets, the prosecutors, NOT THE BANKS, alleged that Trump overvalued his assets to reduce his interest costs. Who was the pretend victim? The banks said they were fine. Once again, we must end this reign of legal terrorism, which has always surfaced and stained the legal system with perpetual LEGAL PERSECUTION. It is time for a change.

Judge Merchan Provides Information Indicating Juror in Trump Case May Have Predetermined Guilty Verdict


Posted originally on the CTH on June 7, 2024 | Sundance

There’s just something very sketchy about this public release of information from Judge Merchan in New York City.  Merchan doesn’t have an integrity bone and the comment he is bringing attention toward is innocuous and random.  However, Merchan could be trying to get Trump to violate the gag order aspect and talk about jurors; thereby making the sentencing worse.

According to information Merchan is providing the lawyers in the Trump case, a comment was made on the court’s FaceBook page indicating one of the jurors said the Trump guilty verdict was predetermined. [SOURCE] “My cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting convicted. Thank you folks for all your hard work!!!” 

Why would Judge Merchan want to draw public attention to this?

Either something bigger is being diluted by this story, or perhaps Merchan is using it as a provocation to get Trump to talk about the jury and violate his gag order ahead of sentencing.

Or, perhaps Merchan is looking to create a mistrial to exit the case, or do it over again and extend the gag order.   Also, why not include the entire quote from the Facebook Page:

Not sure what’s going on, but something.  Something….

Victoria Nuland’s Replacement?


Posted originally on Jun 7, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

The role of undersecretary of state for political affairs has been vacant since Victoria Nuland resigned in March. President Joe Biden has just asked Julianne Smith to fill the position. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee strongly supports Smith and is likely to appoint her. Who is the potential new queen of the US neocons?

Smith is the current US ambassador to NATO and has served in this role since November 2021. She formerly worked as a top advisor to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who is keen on entering war with anyone, be it China, Russia, or the Middle East. She served as a deputy national security advisor under Obama as well from 2009 to 2012. In 2010, Smith co-wrote the “NATO Strategic Concept” with Hillary Clinton and Robert Gates that discussed safeguarding freedoms by remaining on the offensive rather than the defensive. The document also discusses climate change and a key enemy of NATO.

Enhancing civilian-military planning was discussed at the time, as well as developing local forces in potential crisis zones. They sought to train civilian specialists from separate member states to work alongside military personnel. It also declares that as long as nuclear weapons exist, NATO will remain a nuclear powerhouse. Their plan for world peace, which the neocons simply do not want, is to disarm the rest of the world so that only NATO may be in control.

“With the changes in the security environment since the end of the Cold War, we have dramatically reduced the number of nuclear weapons stationed in Europe and our reliance on nuclear weapons in NATO strategy. We will seek to create the conditions for further reductions in the future.”

As I explain in “The Plot to Seize Russia,” Russia has been the apple of the neocon’s eyes for many decades. Even in 2010, they were fixated on limiting Russia’s power:

“In any future reductions, our aim should be to seek Russian agreement to increase transparency on its nuclear weapons in Europe and relocate these weapons away from the territory of NATO members. Any further steps must take into account the disparity with the greater Russian stockpiles of short-range nuclear weapons.”

Later adding:

“NATO-Russia cooperation is of strategic importance as it contributes to creating a common space of peace, stability and security. NATO poses no threat to Russia. On the contrary: we want to see a true strategic partnership between NATO and Russia, and we will act accordingly, with the expectation of reciprocity from Russia.”

The document also mentions strengthening relations with Ukraine although does not discuss admittance into the alliance. Biden declared in a speech on D-Day that Ukraine membership into NATO would not be up for consideration, however, that is not what the others are discussing.

Julianne_Smith_NATO_Ambassador

Smith will still be acting as the US ambassador to NATO during their July summit in Washington. “At the summit, we’ll be taking concrete steps to bring Ukraine closer to NATO and ensure that there’s a bridge to membership, a bridge that’s strong and well-lit,” Blinken said. “NATO will help build Ukraine’s future force, one that can effectively deter aggression and defend against it if necessary.”

Julianne Smith is prepared to fill Nuland’s shoes. She has long seen Russia as an enemy of the United States and Europe, and is in agreement with the likes of Clinton and Blinken. She is part of the globalist cabal that believes we should have a global military presence. No one expected a rational person to fill this role as the plan has always been to create the next world war.
