Specialists from the US Army are training Taiwanese soldiers in what is described as a permanent arrangement rather than on a rotational basis, including on an island just six miles from the Chinese coast, according to Taiwan’s United Daily News (UDN). This is the clever way to claim that the US is NOT stationing troops there in Taiwan, but they are there ONLY for training purposes, as was the case in Ukraine. The training regimens were being planned and supervised by the 1st Special Forces Group, an airborne unit, under the provisions of last year’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which was signed into law in December 2022.
There are also reports that American troops are there in Israel as well.

QUESTION: You have been the only analyst who has been correct that there would be no recession that just about everyone had forecast for the last two years. A friend turned me on to you and said mainstream media will never quote you because you do not play by their rules.
I had to present to our board and explain why we needed to switch to your services. They were impressed with your track record. The number one question that arose was that you said there is no recession until after May 7th. The latest statistics from the Atlanta Federal Reserve’s real-time GDP tracker have climbed back up to 3.1% for February, confirming your model has been correct all along. There has been no retreat in consumer confidence in February.
Will consumer confidence contract because of war, which appears to be inevitable? I assume this will be the topic at your London conference in May.
Thank you for your objective model. The world needs your analysis.

ANSWER: The elite are on a fast train to create war. They think this will not be nuclear, but I fear the darker forces are looking at war as the means to reduce the population by 50% to save their precious planet and reduce CO2. They are honestly sick individuals. They never tell the truth. ALWAYS – more civilians die in war than soldiers,
With the prospect of war, UNCERTAINTY enters the equation. That results in consumer spending being reduced and savings increasing. I have warned that these people are desperate to create war to influence the 2024 election. The media is all on board, cheering war just as they did with COVID-19. You have Victoria Nuland calling anyone who is against war is now a Putin supporter. She has labeled the Republicans who are against war a “Putin’s wing of the Republican Party.” She is on a mission to create World War III before Trump might become president, who is anti-war and will fire her ASAP.
The mainstream media is all pushing for war. Just look at the stats. World War I saw 9 to 11 million military personnel dead, with civilian deaths of about 6 to 13 million. World War II was by far the deadliest military conflict in human history, with a total estimated death total of 70–85 million people. The civilian deaths totaled 50–55 million. Because you cannot grow food during such events, there were an additional estimated 19–28 million deaths from famine. That was 3% of the 2.3 billion at the time. Today, the world population is 8.1 billion. They used the COVID-19 vaccines to alter the herd. But war is always the best means to reduce the population. If they eliminate just 3%, that would be nearly 250 million. They want to reduce a lot more than that.

This entire conflict was manufactured by the American Neocons led by John McCain and Victoria Nuland.
It was McCain who started the Climate Change agenda on Capital Hill, and it had nothing to do with the planet. He was arguing against fossil fuels to cut off Russia’s energy sales. It was never about the climate, but they tell a lie often enough; as Hitler’s head of propaganda asserted, it will soon become the truth.
That strategy is working well in every aspect. They used it against Trump as well. Victoria Nuland is using it against anyone who is against war. She is running around calling them “Putin’s wing of the Republican Party.” The Democrats always start the wars, and the Republicans have to end them. That was Nixon’s pledge to end Vietnam; he was elected with over 60%. The exception was when Dick Chaney ran the White House and put his company, Haliburton, in charge; he invaded Iraq on the lie that he had weapons of mass destruction when the object was to seize the oil wells. His daughter is so against Trump and pro-war it must be a family tradition.
McCain and Lindsey Graham were caught on video preaching war with Russia.
Then you had Lindsey Graham boasting that sending all this money to Ukraine was the best Congress ever spent to kill Russians if he said that in the USA, it would be a hate crime.
When Zelensky was elected, he promised to reduce the tensions with Russia, even CNN said back in 2019. Ukrainian sources have long maintained that the election was rigged. Whatever the truth is behind that is almost irrelevant. This war was started by the interim UNELECTED government installed by Victoria Nuland.
Victoria Nuland masterminded the interim government for Ukraine to start this civil war. She made international headlines back then if the EU disagreed, her leaked phone call “FUCK THE EU” made global headlines. It showed who was really in charge. This war began with the installed UNELECTED government, and the platform of Zelensky was supposed to end the war and seek peace, which got him elected. That is what the people voted for, but the Neocons have been working hard to create World War III, and Zelensky has betrayed his own people from the start.
Back in 2022, Macron met with Putin to preserve peace. For a split second, Macron seemed to be the only reasonable European leader at the time when they were all cheering for World War III. Now Macron has switched sides and is pushing for World War III, perhaps to cancel a future French election like Zelensky and convert France into a dictatorship as Zelensky has done to Ukraine.
Ukraine had more nukes than China. It agreed to return them to Russia in return for their neutrality. NATO agreed not to invade, and so did Russia. Saying he would rearm with nuclear weapons the day before Putin came to the rescue of the Donbas was to ensure Putin would respond since he was then violating the Budapest Memorandum of Security Assurances.
Even the pro-Ukraine Washington Post, which can’t wait to start World War III to sell more papers, reported that Zelensky knew when Russia would invade and did not warn his people because of money. “If we had communicated that … then I would have been losing $7 billion a month since last October, and at the moment when the Russians did attack, they would have taken us in three days,”Zelensky said. They always want civilians to die so they can blame the other side and get support. That is an old trick and we see that with Hammas against Israel.
All of a sudden, Macron has switched sides and is outright proposing to send NATO troops into Ukraine because Ukraine is about to fall. He knows that has been the plan all along – NATO to invade Russia. The propaganda is so bad that we are drowning in lies. Zelensky is lying to the world, claiming only 31,000of his troops had died when the number was 100,000, even Ursula said in her speech, and Zelensky made her take that out to hide that Ukraine is losing badly. By pretending Ukraine is winning, he keeps the hopes up and the money flowing into his pockets.
I had reported that 100,000 Ukrainians had been killed in the first few months back in 2022. People said I was spreading Russian propaganda, confirming to me that they were being successfully brainwashed. My info was coming from the Ukrainian sources – not Russia. Then Ursula stood up and said 100,000 Ukrainians had died in battle, and Zelensky made her take that out, saying it was classified information. He has lied to the world and his own people all along, for he is promised a golden parachute when he has destroyed Ukraine and will escorted to live in Miami, trying to wash all the blood from his hands. Here is the original video, and you can see the edited one – again, this is not a Russian source. Wake up!
Zelensky has destroyed his own country, and there are many Ukrainians who want him dead. If he is assassinated, it will be by a Ukrainian for destroying his own country. There are even anti-Semitic rumblings that it was Lazar Kaganovich, who was Stalein’s right-hand man, who suggested taking the food from Ukraine. He was a Ukrainian who also destroyed his own country.
Here is Zelensky before being President, says his salary is small and he is joking about confiscating money from Russians and Jews. Kaganovich was Jewish, and only after being elected did Zelensky claim to be Jewish. Some now think he is destroying Ukraine like Kaganovich, and the motive was that they joined Hitler in killing Jews, for they, too, were Nazis. This is the rising sentiment in Ukraine as the nation is on the brink of collapse.
Ukraine has been cannon fodder, and the West was using Ukraine just to kill as many Russians as possible BEFORE then NATO intended to invade Russia. Zelensky has finally admitted, “They have a great superiority.” Absolutely NOBODY ever expected Ukraine to defeat Russia. This has been a major propaganda operation from the very beginning. Let’s knock off the bullshit here. This is like Cuba trying to conquer the United States.
Zelensky has staged news in full production to keep the money flowing to Ukraine, as he is a good puppet of Victoria Nuland.
Putin even tried to explain the importance of the Minsk Agreement to Zelensky. Yet, Zelendsky has outlawed speaking Russian and outlawed the Russian Orthodox religion, directing them to be subservient to the Patriarch he set up in Kyiv.
Then, to further demoralize all Russians living in Ukraine, he declared that Christmas would be December 25th, not January, as the Orthodox have celebrated since 400AD. What’s next? Throwing Russian Orthodox Christians to the lions for refusing his decrees?
The West negotiated in bad faith, intended from the outset to create this war. I cannot imagine a head of state signing a peace agreement and then admitting that they never intended to honor it.
On December 31, 2022, French President Emmanuel Macron, during his New Year’s address, chastised the French workers with a lengthy discussion on pensions and the need for the French to work more. Then he brought up the climate crisis, declaring that the “energy transition is a battle that we must win.” All of a sudden, Macron has advocated sending NATO troops to Ukraine, which would be the start of World War III. Britain has come out rejecting that scheme. I suppose Macron wants Putin to nuke Paris so he can create jobs for his unions to rebuild the city.
I cannot stress more that the Neocons are advocating war and the total destruction of Russia, swearing that. they will NEVER use nuclear weapons because they know they will. These Neocons are traitors to the countries they are from, just as Kaganovich was to Ukraine. The GREAT LIE is they make people think war is a video game and only soldiers will die. That is far from the truth.
When we look at World War I, the total number of military and civilian casualties was about 40 million. The number killed ranged between 15 to 22 million, but this broke down to 9 to 11 million military personnel, with civilian deaths of about 6 to 13 million. In addition, there were about 23 million wounded military personnel.
World War II was by far the deadliest military conflict in human history, with a total estimated death total of 70–85 million people. The breakdown shows the real cost of war that our governments seem to cheer on. There were 50–56 million who were killed directly in the war. Because you cannot grow food in such events, there were an additional estimated 19–28 million deaths from famine. The civilian deaths totaled 50–55 million. Today, the world leaders seem to be cheering for war. The mainstream media is constantly advocating for war because they are bought and paid for by the establishment – obedience to authority.
Even if there were no nuclear weapons, just keeping with World War II, 3% of the world population was killed. Today, that will be about 250 million – almost the equivalent of the entire United States. These people are freaking out over the population, and they want a good pruning of the herd. In 1900, the world population was 1.7 billion. That became 6 billion by 2000, and now 8 billion by 2024. This is why these people want war – they want to reduce the population, end all sovereign debts and unfunded entitlements, and usher in a new postwar boom to rebuild the cities they have destroyed.
NATO may be planning to invade Russia, but China and North Korea will join the action. Based on our computer’s forecasts, this will NOT end nicely for the West. I wish I were wrong, and Socrates is wrong. But it seems to be inevitable at this point. NOBODY is interested in peace. Honor the Minsk Agreement, and this war is over in 24 hours. This is what Victoris Nuland is saying – war will stimulate the economy.
Thank you, Macron, for showing the world the real agenda. When will you be satisfied? Killing off 50%, 4 billion people with World War III? Or shall we take it back to 1900 with just 1.7 billion?
It was said Blessed be the Peacemakers.
It is hard, if not impossible, to find one today in political office.

I find it interesting how Victoria Nuland has to label any opponent with a derogatory name. She claims that Putin silences any opposition to challenge him in an election when, in fact, the Biden Administration is doing that to Trump, and this is becoming a trend as Brazil seeks to imprison Bolsonaro. Not only can we not afford 90 days more of this Biden hand-puppet of the Neocons, but we can no longer afford to let UNELECTED people like Victoria Nuland set policy. This is why they love Biden. He is on vacation 40% of the time, and she runs Foreign Policy.
Victoria Nuland exaggerated Putin sending 1,000 young Russian boys to death. That is what she has done to Ukraine – used them for cannon fodder. But she was preparing for this war. In 2021, they were pushing to force girls to register for the draft because they do not have enough males to do and die for her objectives. Putin has offered to negotiate constantly. They sent the British PM Johnson to kill the peace deal. She wants only war! She is Ukrainian by heritage, and she PERSONALLY hates Russians. Nobody voted for Victoria Nuland.
Russia and China abandoned Communism and joined the world economy. She has sought to tear that apart, and now we have a divided world, and globalism is dead. It was John McCain who pushed climate change, and that was to end fossil fuels only to try to undermine the Russian economy. He never had any concern about climate.
Some have asked me about my comments that perhaps we need a Direct Democracy, and they will often respond that the people are fools. All of that is true, and they can name the players in football but not their congressmen.
The unelected deep state pulling the strings loves their power, and they are not going down without a fight I fear they will try to assassinate Trump and call it COVID.
I had a friend who was married for 60 years, and when someone asked how he did it? He would say they agreed; he makes all the major decisions, and she handles the rest. They would then ask what major one you have made. He said none have come up yet.
We should have a right to vote directly on major issues like war and taxes. In Switzerland, they have a form of direct democracy. We have to stop these people like Victoria Nuland, who sneak their way in and then impose their personal biases and hatred. This woman accuses Putin and does the exact same thing.

“You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only option.” I think it was Bob Marley who said that… lol. But it’s true.
I’m so far outside the wire trying to research, communicate, dig through the globalist lies and quantify the crazy in terms that are understandable; sometimes I think this effort itself is nuts. Then again, being a dissident means living your best life, and don’t stop swinging for the fences.
The original plan was to meet with people who have a solid, I mean historically impenetrable understanding of how to organize a solidarity movement, then learn, learn… ask questions, seek counsel, find the network, and put the plans into an actionable effort that could be brought back to the USA. {GO DEEP}
Yes, in case you have not been paying attention, the best people to teach you how to defend against the looming communist, fascist and corporatist encroachment are the people who fought it.
The Eastern EU countries are the epicenter of the best rebel alliance thinkers. Pulling the labeled dissidents into my orbit, learning and questioning, has been extremely interesting and seriously informative.
The initial plan was to bring a few people back with me to the U.S., then go on a short tour of several states for meetings and discussions with stateside allies. However, some entity at the Dept of State intercepted the plan, and we have run into newly refused visa issues even though they were previously approved.
If I was a conspiracy minded person, I would notice these visa issues “happened” immediately after my laptops and other devices were compromised by a “virus” in Prague that rendered them useless.
That said, I am not quitting the effort to bring them to the U.S. yet. Yep, ask those who know, and you’ll discover that putting a hurdle in front of a CTH plan only makes my resolve harden. Also, there are far more good people inside the system trying to help than there are bad people trying to harm… the difference is the bad people are in positions of power and authority. They are few, we are many – don’t forget that.
The EU farmers, truckers, machinists, general laborers with shakable calloused hands are all super insightful and full of no-quit in their DNA, -that’s super cool.
People stateside tell me I’m crazy for trying this… hell, who knows, maybe I am. I’ve failed a lot… but I ain’t gonna quit. I love this country, and she’s worth fighting for. I don’t have the answers; I just know the current status quo is not going to work – not for me, not for you, and not for the generation behind us that deserves so much better.
If you’ve got a better idea, then tell me. Don’t be quiet… speak. I’ve got a lot of research complete and an entire network ready to mobilize to support any stateside effort. The rest of the world knows how important 2024 is to the USA, and they are willing to put their time into helping us get President Trump back into office.
We already know if Donald Trump can take the MAGA fight back to Washington DC, the entire apparatus of government, and yes that includes your elected representatives, will fight to destroy him at every opportunity. So, how exactly do we: (a) support President Trump, (b) push back against the weaponized state, (c) confront our government abusers?
There are more of us than them, yet each of our efforts seems to face the full force of “them” against a divided sense of “us.” One of the ways we have discussed direct push back is a modern version of a workers solidarity movement. Essentially, the creation of a system where targeted general work strikes can have an impact on the system that is targeting us.
It is one thing to discuss the Polish Solidarity Movement in esoteric terms of endearment. It is another thing entirely to think about the application of a labor strike process within the United States where 370 million people live. However, if you apply the concept of tactical civics simultaneously, you can make an argument the tactical civics are the shield (EU truckers), and the labor strike is the spear (EU farmers).
One of the advantages we have in the USA governmental structures is the “Republican Form of Government,” or the constitutional republic and the ability of states to determine their own interests.
Think about targeting now going in reverse, where WE THE PEOPLE now target the non-compliant system operators and/or politicians. A Senator or Congress person aligns against Trump’s interests, our interests, and instead of gnashing our teeth, we immediately begin a targeted work stoppage in/around the representative’s district. In this scenario we don’t need tens of millions to make an impact, only a few thousand can completely change the dynamic.
How does it work? How is it possible? How did the people of Poland pay their bills during the solidarity strikes? How do you organize that process so that everyone can participate, and yet no one individually needs to carry the risk of losing? These nuts-and-bolts questions are part of my research mission.
How effective would a Congressional District (CD-??) “sick-out” be? Perhaps timed for every Wednesday, beginning on the {fill_in_the_blank_day}, and continuing until the representative understood that he/she alone was the cause of the economic trouble in their district. You see, the general labor strike doesn’t need to be scaled to the size of Poland circa 1980’s; instead with modern communication, it can target very specific places and create just as big an impact.
The dismantling of a weaponized government first begins with a set of political representatives who are willing to take apart the institutional tools that government uses to weaponize their power. As we saw with the hyped and yet failed Congressional Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of Government, once the public appears to be satiated with false hope from yet another created assembly, the representative group does nothing.
The urgency of the committee silo might look entirely different if the trash was not getting picked up in the committee members’ districts. Or the lawns were not getting mowed, or the cooks stayed home, etc.
You never realize how strong you are until being strong is your only option.
I will have much more to share on this issue as we will likely have a lot of support from ordinary MAGA-minded people in a multitude of countries. The Dutch, German, Polish, Romanian, French, Spanish and Irish farmers/truck drivers are figuring out how effective it can be if they push back with strategic solidarity. We can learn a valuable lesson.
Whether Donald Trump wins the 2024 election or not, the same practical process will be needed. If Trump wins the election, it will be to provide support under the auspices of unavoidable pressure.
We don’t wait for primary races to defeat the people who stand against us in 2025; instead, we trigger the financial consequences against them immediately.
If you’ve got better ideas, then share them. If you think this effort can work, then HELP ME HERE.
Love to all,
Sundance

The War And Justice movie is already being banned by those who are far-left, pro-war, and pro-the corruption at the International Criminal Court when the Neocons got it to indicate Putin when they had no jurisdiction over non-members – such as the United States, China, and Russia. In this world where George Soros is silencing all dissent and his son Alex has displayed behavior that would land anyone else in prison, our future grows dark as we have to stand up to defend our fundamental freedoms. Here is the Trailer.

QUESTION: Do you believe Putin has no interest in starting World War III? Was he telling the truth when he said, “It is absolutely out of the question? You just don’t have to be any kind of analyst. It goes against common sense to get involved in some kind of a global war, and a global war will bring all humanity to the brink of destruction. It’s obvious.”
SL
ANSWER: Look, this is all propaganda from the Neocons, especially Victoria Nuland and her sister-in-law running the Institute for the Study of War. When Khrushchev ran the Soviet Union, his comment that we will bury you was more of a religious cult where they really believed that Communism was the way to the future. The Neocons got all riled up over that and took the opposite position that they would spread democracy to the world. That became the Cold War. The problem is Communism fell, and their ideology switched from anti-communism to racism – anti-Russian.
Remember McCarthyism? He created such a communist scare in the United States he was turning everyone against one another. He accused Democrats of being Communists and the American Civil Liberties Union of being a communist organization. McCarthy was manufacturing evidence to haul in people for interrogation. McCarthy’s methods wwere finally episoded in the television documentary series See It Now, hosted by journalist Edward R. Murrow, which was broadcast on March 9, 1954.
Those were different days when North Korea tried to invade the South. Vietnam, we assumed, was all really about communists. The Neocon McNamara apologized before he died that we sent 50,000 Americans to their death for what he said was really just a civil war, and we should learn from those mistakes. We have not.
The days of empire-building are gone. Russia has NO INTENTION of returning to communism. The people would overthrow the government if they tried. The Russian people have their freedom and are not interested in returning to communism. They cannot. They all now own where they once lived and have credit cards and mortgages. This is NATO propaganda to remain relevant in a world where Russia is no longer some communist in a quest to spread its philosophy to the world.
Once you hand Power to any Organization
They will never return it willingly
and do anything to retain it
It has been the Neocons who are deliberately trying to provoke World War III. They have spent their entire lives consumed with hatred. We were on the verge of World Peace, just like the Romans. When everyone realized they benefited from being part of the Roman Empire for the common market and could sell their goods throughout the Empire, the people would not support rebellion as long as they were profiting from being part of Rome. When China and Russia benefited from integrating into the world economy, their people would never allow their governments to wage war. Remove that economic benefit, and then naturally, the people will rise and demand retribution against those who have stolen their livelihood.
The Neocons think putting sanctions on Russia would cause the people to overthrow Putin; they are dead wrong. They will only inspire hatred of the West. They are not stupid. They know the cause of their economic problems – the hatred of the Neocons.

Former President Donald Trump has recently reiterated his stance that the United States is unfairly carrying the financial burden of the NATO alliance. He has criticized other NATO members for not meeting their defense spending targets and believes that the US should not protect allies who fail to meet these targets. Trump threatened to withdraw from NATO during his presidency as this has been a longtime grudge. So, who is contributing their fair share?
NATO nations have agreed to pay 2% of GDP toward the alliance in 2014 in the wake of the Crimea annexation. Unfortunately, written agreements carry no weight in politics as of recent years. Trump believes anyone failing to pay their bills should become the target as they do not deserve the protection of the US after years of failing to meet their obligations. Trump would “encourage them [Russia] to do whatever the hell they want” to the 18 nations who are not meeting the 2% target.
Only three NATO nations besides the US were committing to the agreement when Trump was sworn into office in 2017 (Greece, Poland, the UK). NATO members increased their contributions after Trump threatened to withdraw. Still, as of today, only seven of those members besides the US are paying their fair share (the UK, Greece, Poland, Latvia, Estonia, Croatia, and Lithuania). Newly added Romania, Hungary, Finland, and Slovakia are so grateful to be part of the alliance that they are paying over 2%.
Europe arguably has more to lose in this war, so why is the United States bankrolling NATO? Does America actually need NATO for protection? No. But they do need NATO to create and amplify wars. Even European economic powerhouses like Germany (1.57%) and France (1.9%) have failed to meet their 2014 agreement.
Trump’s comments have sparked anger within the alliance, with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg saying Trump’s comments threaten global security. While encouraging an attack on any nation is counterproductive, the numbers clearly indicate that NATO is taking full advantage of America, which is propping up the entire alliance by providing over 70% of overall funding. No one is helping America to secure its borders, but America is expected to act as a global police force, abandon all domestic interests, and interfere whenever another nation’s borders are in jeopardy. America does not need NATO; NATO needs America.
