Romanian Globalists Appeal to EU for TikTok Investigation After Nationalist Wins Election


Posted originally on the CTH on November 27, 2024 | Sundance 

In the background of other interesting matters, it’s worthwhile taking a glance into the TikTok battle every once in a while.  While I retain a slight ambivalence to the issue of TikTok and social media control mechanisms, it is also true that TikTok is currently the only larger used platform that is not directly under the wing of the U.S. Intelligence Community.

As we noted in the recent Romanian election outcome, the winner of round #1, a nationalist-minded Romania First candidate named Călin Georgescu, strongly directed his campaign message to the Romanian people, via TikTok. Georgescu campaigned on an anti-EU, anti-NATO and anti-war with Russia platform; simultaneously supporting domestic farmers, domestic energy production and advocating for a Romania that is free from foreign influence.

Suddenly, the Romanian officials who lost the election are asking the EU to investigate TikTok for allowing the organic message of Georgescu to flourish and generate support.

(Via Politico) […] TikTok is under mounting pressure to explain how it handled political content in Romania after a first round presidential vote on Sunday propelled the ultranationalist, pro-Russian firebrand Călin Georgescu to a shock victory, in part thanks to his sudden surge on TikTok. A top EU lawmaker demanded on Tuesday that TikTok’s chief executive appear before the European Parliament to answer questions, and Romanian NGOs have urged the Commission to look into whether TikTok and other platforms complied with Europe’s social media laws.

The European Commission oversees TikTok’s compliance with the bloc’s new DSA rulebook, which sets the rules for how large online platforms moderate content, including in political campaigns.

The issues were already “brought to the attention of the European Commission … in recent months” and again on Tuesday, the Romanian regulator said.

[…] Romanian Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu weighed in on Tuesday, saying funding for Georgescu’s campaign on TikTok needed to be reviewed: “It’s a system, I don’t know how legal it is, I understood how the system was used. The source of financing, in my opinion, is to be followed, ‘follow the money.’”

In a statement, TikTok’s spokesperson in Brussels, Paolo Ganino, said the “highly speculative reports about the Romanian elections are inaccurate and misleading, as most candidates have established a TikTok presence and the winners campaigned on other digital platforms beyond ours.”  (read more)

As we said earlier, this outcome caught Samantha Power and the CIA off-guard.

The globalist alliance is striking back by asking the EU for help in stopping the rise of nationalism.

It’s not just Călin Georgescu they are after, it’s control over the people of Romania.  Georgescu is simply in the way.

In a semi related story, Greg Price shares this:

“Kamala advisor Stephanie Cutter: “I can’t tell you how many friends of mine or nieces and nephews would say to me ‘you know I’m getting these things from Trump all the time on TikTok.’”

I was one of the two guys who ran the @TeamTrump TikTok account. Keep in mind that Kamala had a whole team running their TikTok, while we had the simplest of simple TikTok operations going at Trump HQ. It was literally just two of us.

When we took over in August, Team Trump was at around 300K followers while Kamala HQ had 3M. By the end of the campaign, we lapped them in followers (it’s at 8.1M today). Forbes recently wrote a story about the two campaigns on TikTok where they noted “while Harris was reaching a consistent audience more often, Trump was reaching a larger audience overall.”

TikTok was a powerful tool in this election. I firmly believe it played a major role in the Gen Z shift toward President Trump. Team Kamala was so proud of the TikTok cringe they posted on a daily basis. But, at the end of the day, all the brat memes in the world can’t manufacture authenticity where there is none.

We were lucky enough to be able to promote a winning message for a President made for this moment. And I’m certainly very happy that the family members of Kamala’s team enjoyed our content!

Silent Prayer Prohibited in the UK

Marx Religion Opium of Masses

Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Keir Starmer’s reign is akin to how America would have looked under a Kamala Harris presidency. The people have lost their ability to speak freely, and citizens are facing legal charges for speaking against Starmer’s regime. The New World Order is beginning right before our eyes.

A British Army veteran was convicted of expressing “disapproval of abortion.” This man spent 20 years proudly serving his nation. Yet, the Public Spaces Protection Order has deemed him a criminal for silently praying outside an abortion facility. He has been conditionally discharged and forced to pay a $12,000 (9,000 pound) fine for daring to pray in public.

The above video shows how disillusioned the authorities have become. “What is the nature of your prayer?” the police asked, to which the man replied he was praying for his deceased son. He was then told that he was praying in a “censorship zone,” where even your THOUGHTS can be criminalized.

Praying

Censorship zones were enacted in England and Wales on October 31, 2024. The zones are deemed “safe access zones” or “buffer zones,” and often span 150 meters around abortion clinics and hospitals. Protesting in any manner, handing out abortion alternative pamphlets, and any form of prayer – including silent prayer – is strictly prohibited. Scotland and Northern Ireland also implemented similar zones this October.

Another woman by the name of Isabel Vaughan-Spruce was arrested twice in Birmingham for silently praying in a buffer zone. Father Sean Gough has his day in court for the same crime. Both individuals were acquitted but now the government is no longer issuing slaps on the wrist.

The public is absolutely outraged. The army officer has received a petition with 60,000 signatures in his favor. Keir Starmer has failed to make a direct comment about the public outcry. People are understandably concerned over the government’s increasingly authoritarian policies. The Labour government has done away with the Freedom of Speech Act (2003) that was intended to protect free speech on university campuses. Starmer is looking for new methods to crack down on how people communicate online, and is not considering an amendment to the Online Safety Act that would punish people for speaking out against the government’s agenda online. Starmer has deemed any speech that goes against his wishes “misinformation” that must be criminalized.

Why are all the Build Back Better nations racing to eliminate free speech? The World Economic Forum (WEF) listed misinformation and disinformation as the most severe short-term global risk in its 2024 Global Risks Report. Schwab’s alliance demands international cooperation to stifle free speech. It calls for a “multi-sectoral approach” to ensure all media and tech companies carry out the government’s plan to defend the people against themselves.

Regulating Crypto Under Premise of Climate Change

Governments are enacting subtle regulations over crypto. Texas has come out to demand that crypto miners report their power usage to the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT). The state claims they need this information to regulate its volatile power grid.

Public Utilities Commission of Texas (PUCT) Chairman Thomas Gleeson stated that miners must provide all information from location, ownership, to energy output. “This is another example of the PUCT and ERCOT adapting to support a rapidly changing industrial landscape,” he said. ERCOT believes there will be a new load of 152 GW by 2030.

“The rule approved today will give the PUCT and ERCOT better awareness of virtual currency mining operations around the state, which have unique power consumption characteristics,” the commission said. “The information provided in the registration will help ERCOT manage the grid reliably as more virtual currency mining facilities connect to the grid.” Failure to register will result in a $25,000 DAILY penalty PER VIOLATION.

ERCOT already has access to energy usage meters. It is quite peculiar that they are expecting individuals to begin self-reporting. This is part of a broader trend to regulate crypto. New York, not reliant on a grid of any sort, wants 70% of its electricity to be renewable by 2030, but only about 29% of energy comes from a renewable source. The state has enacted a two-year moratorium on certain types of crypto mining, stating that they need to study the impacts that energy consumption will have on the climate. The days of having an unregulated crypto market are numbered.

Denmark to Drastically Reduce Farmland


Posted originally on Nov 26, 2024 by Martin Armstrong 

Dairy Cow

Denmark is willing to destroy its agriculture sector in the name of climate change. Adhering tightly to Agenda 2030 and the Paris Accord, the nation plans to reduce 70% of all emissions by 2030 before becoming climate neutral in 2050. The latest initiative intends to revert 10% to 15% of the country’s farmlands back to nature.

The government already ensured that meat production would decrease by taxing cattle, with a 672 krone ($145) tax per cow. The government has paid for scientists to back these claims and falsified studies that state that gardening or owning livestock of any kind threatens the existence of planet Earth. Like COVID, we are blindly forced to trust “the science” when it is clear propaganda.  The dairy cow population is down about 546,800, declining 1.74% from 2022 to 2023, and the nation hosts 2.5% of all dairy cows in the European Union. About 3.6% of all milk consumed in the EU comes from Denmark. Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said this tax will increase every year, and the tax will rise to 1680 krone by 2035.

Agriculture composes 22% of Denmark’s total exports, producing enough food to feed 15 million people annually. Farmer-owned cooperates account for 90% of dairy and cattle production. However, there is a lack of transparency regarding land laws in Denmark, and the government will use those loosened regulations to expedite Agenda 2030.

The government plans to bribe people out of their land, to begin with, but then it will become more authoritarian. If it can’t tax the people out of their land, it may simply seize the land. Section 73 of the Danish Constitution and the Danish Expropriation Act say land may be expropriated for an array of reasons, including conservation projects.

U.K and France in Discussions to Send NATO Troops Into Ukraine


Posted originally on the CTH on November 25, 2024 | Sundance 

With around 50 days remaining to stir up as much trouble as possible, and with around 50 days of strategic activity left in order to Trump-proof the UE coalition of the NATO alliance, the U.K and France are in “classified” discussions about sending their troops into Ukraine before President Trump takes office.

It should be remembered that President Barack Obama did not want to intervene in Libya, circa 2011.  That was a decision made by The U.S. State Department and CIA, pushed by Hillary Clinton, Samantha Power and Director Leon Panetta, and ultimately, militarily, executed by NATO Commander Admiral James Stavridis.  And yes, Libya was not a threat to NATO…. but it happened anyway.

The U.K recently signed a mutual defense agreement with Moldova, promising to come to their aid if conflict with Russia escalated into the country.  Now we see reports of the U.K traveling to France to create a two-party coalition within the larger NATO assembly, intended to send military troops into Ukraine.

Is an attack against allied troops analogous with an attack against a NATO member?  Before you answer that question, remind yourself of the justification for the reference Libya intervention, the infamous “Responsibility To Protect” or R2P.  Now, using that framework, revisit the question.  I digress.

Le Monde – […] As the conflict in Ukraine enters a new phase of escalation, discussions over sending Western troops and private defense companies to Ukraine have been revived, Le Monde has learned from corroborating sources. These are sensitive discussions, most of which are classified – relaunched in light of a potential American withdrawal of support for Kyiv once Donald Trump takes office on January 20, 2025.

The debate about sending troops to Ukraine, which French President Emmanuel Macron initiated at a meeting between Kyiv’s allies in Paris in February, was strongly opposed by some European countries, led by Germany. However, it was relaunched in recent weeks thanks to the visit to France of the UK prime minister, Keir Starmer, for the November 11th commemorations. “Discussions are underway between the UK and France on defense cooperation, particularly with a view to creating a hard core of allies in Europe, focused on Ukraine and wider European security,” confided a British military source to Le Monde.

Almost all modern “western” wars are bankers’ wars.  To understand the activity, it is worth paying attention to who is the benefactor and who is the beneficiary in the Corporate/Government relationship.

History does not always repeat; however, it is almost guaranteed to rhyme.

Bitcoin FX 11 24 24

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, I am a newcomer. I watched your WEC virtually. It was very eye-opening. I also want to thank you for Socrates and for covering Bitcoin. Your service is the only thing out there that isn’t biased, and you are not trying to sell me some crypto. Also, thank you for explaining that nothing can be fixed and that the sales pitch behind Bitcoin was just false. You have explained it is an asset class and approach it like anything else. It’s just a trade. I look at it in different currencies, as you said. It has opened my mind to a dynamic world, as you put it at the WEC.

Once again, thank you.

Capital Flow Map 11 24 24

REPLY: With the political chaos surrounding us and the push for war, these are the times that cause capital to move. Look at our map that tracks the capital flows every day. Both the Chinese and Russians are pulling back the capital from the West. The capital is fleeing the Baltics right now, but Brazil is also experiencing political chaos there.nWhen you look at Bitcoin in various currencies, you can see that it is being used as a vehicle to get capital out of Europe right now.

Cleveland

Graver Cleveland was the previous president who, like Trump, was elected to non-consecutive terms. Like Donald Trump, he also stood against his own party. He expressed this best during the Panic of 1893. Capital can flee and move offshore. It is the middle class that cannot hoard their labor nor move it offshore.

Bitcoin is a trading vehicle, and it may not be suited for a reserve currency since the money supply MUST increase with population and the expansion of the economy, or else you create deflation. Nevertheless, it has become an international means of moving money, and this is happening right now, so it is important to look at anything from a global perspective. Bitcoin has become like gold where it is the same product that is traded internationally.

It Happened Again, Romania Stuns Europe – Nationalist Wins First Place in Presidential Election, First Round


Posted originally on the CTH on November 24, 2024 | Sundance 

Interesting that none of the Europeans saw this outcome looming, which is likely why Samantha Power and her USAID/CIA election operation was not present for round #1.   Unfortunately, it should be expected that team USA will quickly react and dispatch assistants to help recover in round #2.

Make Romania Great Again candidate Călin Georgescu came out of nowhere and has won the first round in the presidential election.

Georgescu campaigned on an anti-EU, anti-NATO and anti-war with Russia platform; simultaneously supporting domestic farmers, domestic energy production and advocating for a Romania that is free from foreign influence.

Oh, and instead of traditional media, his campaign message was strongly directed to the Romanian people, via TikTok. Imagine that.

As noted by Politico, “Ultranationalist Călin Georgescu comes from nowhere to lead center-left PM Marcel Ciolacu and liberal Elena Lasconi in first round.

[…] According to the partial results, Georgescu leads with 22.2 percent followed by center-left Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu on 20.2 percent. Reformist candidate Elena Lasconi is on 18 percent, while another hard-right candidate, George Simion, trails with 14.1 percent support, with 96 percent of precincts reporting.

An early exit poll had suggested that Lasconi was set to qualify for the presidential runoff but Georgescu surged as vote counting continued Sunday night, heralding a result that is set to upend Romanian politics.

Georgescu, extremely religious and nationalistic, campaigned on reducing Romania’s reliance on imports, supporting farmers and increasing the domestic production of food and energy.

He has also argued that the EU and NATO do not properly represent Romanian interests and claimed Russia’s war in Ukraine, a Romanian neighbor, is manipulated by American military companies.

In 2022, he claimed that the U.S. anti-missile shield located in the southern Romanian village of Deveselu is part of a confrontation policy and not a peaceful measure. Russian President Vladimir Putin has argued the same.

He said at the time that he had no support from Russia but felt close to its culture. He described Putin as “a man who loves his country.”

Georgescu also said he admired Hungary because it knows how to negotiate internationally. (read more)
