The LEFT To Become Very Authoritarian

2025_02_17_ Economist on Munich

Zanny Minton Beddoes, Editor-in-chief at the Economist, began her rant: “Well, the world changed yesterday.” The anti-Americanism is percolating to a boil.
She continued: “Ukraine’s future, European security and transatlantic relations were all thrown into the air by a torrent of announcements and attacks from the new administration.”

Euro Over the Edge

This refusal by Europe to seek peace has given new meaning to our computer, which has been warning about war and has projected a Panic Cycle in the Euro for 2026. Smart money is moving out of Europe, and that even amounts to the gold supply in London moving to New York, strangely as it did for World Wars I and II. This old hatred of Russia and their thirst to conquer it for its wealth linger and seem unrelenting.

I cannot express the conversations I have had, and it certainly appears that the entrenched anti-democratic political establishment denies the European people even to vote for who is the head of Europe or any of these people making decisions that are all pointing to war.  Kaja Kallas, who is now the Vice-President of the European Commission and the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, is NOT elected by the European people yet has pronounced that any peace deal Trump hammer out with Putin will be ignored by the EU. Does anyone ask the European people if they want to go to war with Russia and risk their way of life, all for a territorial grab by Ukraine?

Euro US Clear

Zanny Minton Beddoes continued: “J.D. Vance , used his Munich address to deliver a blistering critique of European democracy, excoriating what he saw as unwarranted constraints on free speech, the failure to address mass migration and misguided attempts to marginalise populist parties. In effect, he backed the far-right Alternative for Deutschland, a week before the German election. I was sitting in the hall watching him speak, and the shock was astonishing. “Putin could have given that speech,” someone near me pointed out.”

She added: this“Trump quake may be the catalyst Europe needs to take greater responsibility for its own security. That security requires a credibly defended and Westward-focused Ukraine. And it means much more investment in defence. Even in Munich everyone understood spending needed to rise a lot, and fast. “We got the message,” said Germany’s president, Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

When FDR went to Boston and wanted to send troops to Europe, the people said no way! In Boston, they said that he expected the Irish to go defend the English after what they did to Ireland. Congress rejected a Declaration of War. It took FDR scheming to provoke Japan to attack Pearl Harbor, and that was the only way to get the US involved in World War II. I fear now that the Neocons control Europe and the European press, they will start this war and then try to invoke Article 5 to force Trump in, but if he stands his ground, I will not put it beyond them to try to assassinate Trump and even Vance to fulfill their dream of World War III.

Answering Your Questions

Question Your Change to Speak

COMMENT #1: Hello Mr Armstrong,
I just read your article about the situation in Europe and how the EU fools seek to fight Russia.
What can I say? Fools stay fools. They got to this situation of fiscal chaos because they are fools and
they will continue down the road of fools because fools can’t turn wise just like that.

One more thing I want to say. I have been reading your articles and following your work for a long time.
In my opinion you are NOT antisemitic. I think I can say that, as I was born in Israel, coming from a Jewish family with very long roots
and cherish our long tradition.

Please don’t take to heart whatever those idiots tell or write about you.
I embrace you, brother, take care,
Ronnie
Belgium.
(P.S. I am so happy Trump is back in power, and JD Vance and all of Trump’s team members are simply great, doing God’s job)

REPLY #1: Thank you. We have even staff of every race, gender, and religion. We have always been international. You cannot forecast the world from the ignorance of a myopic view.

COMMENT #2: Hi Martin

I have been watching Socrates daily comex silver futures. It was showing a double direction change Friday followed by a panic Monday. The political events on that day fell into place!. I am so fortunate to have met you.

Socrates is giving me hope for humanity’s future.

D Morris

REPLY #2: I have been amazed at how the seemingly random events take place on the computer’s forecasts. Perhaps there is an invisible hand that compels events to unfold in the direction of the markets. It is fascinating to watch.

QUESTION #1: Marty, you have said at your WEC that you have tried your best to defeat your model but you always lose. You have been a lone voice in the wilderness against this war from the very outset. Do you advocate, as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth implied, that the U.S. might ignore NATO’s Article 5 if Europe were to take military action against Russia?

PH

ANSWER #1: Look. European leaders are outright lying to their people. They are the real war criminals that history will remember. They think because they control the press that, they can exonerate themselves from the death and destruction and blame Russia. Article 5 is not mandatory. I would not come to the aid of Europe this time. Since they seem to think a third time to conquer Russia will be the charm, let then self-destruct. China will come to the aid of Russia. The West will lose.

Yogoslavia_map_of_breakup

QUESTION #2: Your comparison to Yugoslavia is spot on. Why will RFK and Western European leaders refuse to listen to you?

Jake

ANSWER #2: I do not know. All I can assume is that my purpose in life is only to inform and perhaps point the way after the crash and burn of Western society. I have studied the rise and fall of nations. I cannot prevent the cycle. It is merely our destiny. I hope we can start fresh and these Western European leaders will be remembered for their war crimes. Thanks to these decisions, this will probably also fulfill the computer warning about a 50% reduction in the world population.

Supporting the Deep State by Silence

Deep State 1

COMMENT: I find it hypocritical that in the USA, the mainstream media and others who refuse to acknowledge your accomplishments publicly are not trustworthy. Anyone who refuses to recognize you and Socrates is part of the Deep State. You say the facts. They hate the messenger and prefer to hide the truth.

GF

Decline Fall

ANSWER: I understand. I get this a lot. It becomes evident that if they acknowledge my work and Socrates, they have to recognize the US attempted a regime change in Russia in 2000, and that was not only why Putin came to power, but it has been why they hate him so much because he thwarted their scheme. That was the entire reason behind RussiaGate by Hillary, which wasted tens of millions of dollars claiming Putin influenced the 2016 election. The system would not have been worth saving if Putin had changed the outcome with a few hundred thousand dollars.

EU_Could_German_election_result_be_annulled_Euro_Weekly_News

Look, these people are out of control. They reversed the Romanian election and are saying they could do the same in Germany if they dare to vote against what the EU wants. These people who refused to recognize Socrates are traitors to civilization and are pushing their agenda even by their silence.

If these people acknowledge what they did to me, they must recognize what they tried to accomplish and why we are still headed into World War III. So anyone who tries to ignore me is indeed in cahoots with the Deep State and ultimately only ensuring the decline and fall of the USA for 2032.

USAID Granted George Soros’ Organizations $260 million


Posted originally on Feb 10, 2025 by Martin Armstrong 

Soros one world government

USAID awarded $260 million in grants to various organizations linked to George Soros who openly uses his organizations to alter global democracies. It has already been revealed that the alleged nonpartisan agency gave the Democrats 97% of political funding during the last election. It appears that USAID has deeper political influence as it granted millions over the years to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) directly affiliated with Soros and the Open Foundations Societies (OFS).

Our foreign aid has been used to dismantle traditional Western values across the world. USAID provided $90 million to OFS partner East-West Management Institute. “Strengthening democratic societies by fostering collaboration between governments, civil society, and the private sect or to build transparent and accountable institutions,” is its mission statement as the organization is clear on its objectives. The Anti-Corruption Action Centre (ACAC), another OFS partner, has 20.7% of total funding paid for by USAID. Alliance for Open Society International (AOSI) was on the payroll too, and actually sued USAID for demanding that grant recipients adopt an anti-prostitution stance.

Obama Soros

Judicial Watch found that USAID directly funneled $5 million to a OSF branch in Macedonia. The watchdog group filed a 2017 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against USAID to obtain records relating to USAID’s contributions to Soros in Macedonia (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Agency for International Development). The group accused the agency of working to destabilize Macedonia in a move promoted by then-President Obama, whose own mother was actually employed by USAID.

“The U.S. government has quietly spent millions of taxpayer dollars to destabilize the democratically elected, center-right government in Macedonia by colluding with leftwing billionaire philanthropist George Soros, records obtained by Judicial Watch show. Barack Obama’s U.S. Ambassador to Macedonia, Jess L. Baily, has worked behind the scenes with Soros’ Open Society Foundation to funnel large sums of American dollars for the cause, constituting an interference of the U.S. ambassador in domestic political affairs in violation of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.”

Joe Biden awarded George Soros a Medal of Freedom for his life’s work of destabilizing democracy domestically and abroad. Soros and his many endeavors have been well-documented and publicized. Blatant corruption rubbed in our faces. We have people on the left in every nation, from the US to Romania, declaring that Russia or social media interfered in their elections. NGOs are clearly something that is a grey area as they have been exploited for political purposes using the cover of humanity. The World Health Organization (WHO) uses the premise of health and humanitarian aid, as does the United Nations, USAID, etc. Every globalist conglomerate is supported through government funding.

Republican senators have probed the OSF-USAID connection over the years, but we have not had such transparent information until now, with the emergence of DOGE. Unsurprisingly, the left claims Soros’s ties are uncalled for as USAID was simply funding his NGO affiliates. They claim that USAID was a mere 1% of the federal budget as if a little corruption is OK. Foreign aid is intended for humanitarian purposes, not radical political objectives. USAID has been promoting non-American objectives and values with American-earned dollars. All agencies weaponized by the left must be exposed.

I warned that what would be coming out about USAID would get much worse.

COMMENT: As one reader mentions, Elon is doing a bang-up job of exposing the state’s ultra-corruption.

I don’t know how Klaus Schwab will compete against you now that his welfare gravy train has been derailed.

The Clintons were shoveling $84M into their pockets.

USAID & CIA Were Behind Trump’s Impeachments

OCCRP Report Cover

OCCRP Meet the Florida Duo Helping Giuliani Investigate for Trump in Ukraine

To get Trump impeached, they relied on an Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) report that alleged that two Soviet-born Florida businessmen were “key hidden actors behind a plan” by Trump to investigate Biden and his actions via Ukraine. They connected Giuliani to two former Ukrainian prosecutors, and this was like the Steel Dossier. The OCCRP version was instrumental to the House Democrats’ impeachment claim off the ground. The report claimed that Trump dispatched Giuliani to pressure a foreign country to interfere in the 2020 presidential election. This pretend whistleblower cited this fake report four times to justify the impeachment of Trump.

There was even a 2024 German NDR documentary that investigated OCCRP’s dependence on the US government. Indeed, there was a USAID official who confirmed that USAID approves OCCRP’s “annual work plan” and approves new hires of “key personnel.” NDR, with French investigative news organization Mediapart, Italian new group Il Fatto Quotidiano, Reporters United in Greece, and Drop Site News in the United States, all got together to investigate.

OCCRP’s original funding allegedly came from the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs of the State Department. It appears that USAID/OCCRP may be interfering in foreign political situations. It has been alleged that there are connections to interfering in elections as well as organized attempts at regime change. NDR reported that this organization had “probably been responsible for five or six countries changing over from one government to another government.”

I warned you that this is going to get much worse. I wrote a book, The Plot to Seize Russia, where I was asked to put in $10 billion to fund Hermitage Capital to carry out a regime change in Russia. I refused. I was then held in civil contempt for seven years without charges until the Supreme Court ordered them to explain why I was being held. Then they released me.

I have had a front-row seat and seen far more than I ever desired.

Egg Prices in 2025


originally on Posted Feb 4, 2025 by Martin Armstrong 

Chicken of Egg

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt responded to an inquiry on rising egg prices by blaming the prior administration. Leavitt was correct when she stated that the Department of Agriculture was directed to kill over 100 million chickens, leading to a mass shortage. Prices steadily rose throughout Biden’s term, as an average dozen cost only $1.60 in February 2021.

Egg prices increased by 20% to $1.93 during Biden’s first year in office. We saw the avian flu outbreak in 2022, which along with other factors brought egg prices up another 30% on a yearly basis to $2.51. Egg prices continue to rise in 2023, reaching around $3.50 per dozen during February but slightly decreasing by year-end of $2.50. We saw egg prices surge significantly by 60% from 2023 to 2024. The Agriculture Department believes that egg prices will rise by another 20.3% in 2025.

As reported by the USDA:

“Retail egg prices increased by 8.4 percent in December 2024 and continue to experience volatile month-to-month changes. An outbreak of HPAI that began in 2022, with recent detections in January 2025, contributed to elevated egg prices by reducing the U.S. egg-layer flock. HPAI continued to drive egg price increases in 2024. Egg prices in December 2024 were 36.8 percent higher than in December 2023 but still below peak prices in January 2023. Egg prices are predicted to increase 20.3 percent in 2025, with a prediction interval of 0.1 to 45.3 percent.”

The bird flu is certainly a main factor here. The USDA stated that 108 million chickens have died since 2022, but an additional 13 million have died in recent MONTHS. The Animal Health Protection Act permits the USDA the authority to kill off infected herds and flocks. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention claim that chickens have at best a 10% survival rate after contracting the bird flu.

Culling has been a standard practice that cannot be avoided if we are to believe the flocks were indeed infected. Alarmingly, bird flu has been detected among cattle and depopulation efforts are underway, which will raise the prices of milk and beef. The USDA believes milk prices, which are already up 11.7% on the yearly, will rise by an additional 1.3% in 2025. Beef prices, up 4.9% annually, are expected to rise by 1.5%. Food prices have been on the rise for years, and I have long warned to stockpile food in case of supply shortages.

Our models do not indicate that food inflation will ease in 2025. In fact, I have repeatedly warned that people may want to stockpile food for the next two years as there will be weather events and supply chain shortages. Our model warns that we may see another severe drought, probably between 2025 to 2027, in both the US and Canada. The drought conditions are already beginning, which is in line with our model, which warns it will expand into 2025-2027.
