The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God.
As it is written in Isaiah the prophet: Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of you; he will prepare your way. A voice of one crying out in the desert: “Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.”
John the Baptist appeared in the desert proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. People of the whole Judean countryside and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem were going out to him and were being baptized by him in the Jordan River as they acknowledged their sins. John was clothed in camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist. He fed on locusts and wild honey. And this is what he proclaimed: “One mightier than I is coming after me. I am not worthy to stoop and loosen the thongs of his sandals. I have baptized you with water; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
Jesus said to his disciples: “Be watchful! Be alert! You do not know when the time will come. It is like a man traveling abroad. He leaves home and places his servants in charge, each with his own work, and orders the gatekeeper to be on the watch. Watch, therefore; you do not know when the Lord of the house is coming, whether in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrow, or in the morning. May he not come suddenly and find you sleeping. What I say to you, I say to all: ‘Watch!’”
QUESTION: I would imagine that if Trump is able to prevail in the courts and earn a second term social unrest would be profound but what would be the effects on the markets?
RM
ANSWER: There is still a shot that Trump can prevail if he can stop Biden from reaching 270 votes and that would throw it into the House of Representatives where each state would get one vote and Trump would win in that scenario as took place during the election of 1824. But PA has certified Biden as the winner and then a state judge ruled against the governor. Then lawsuits against Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin raise the stakes of perhaps preventing Biden from getting 270 sending it into the House of Representatives.
What is clear from Socrates is that civil unrest will rise no matter what. If Trump can prevail or the Republicans can keep the Senate, then the Great Resetagenda will be stalled. But Biden can still use executive orders if he takes the White House to try to impose lockdowns etc overriding Congress. In Theory, Trump could have used executive orders ordering the State to end lockdowns but that would have been used against him and the Democrats argued he lacked that power. With Biden, they would say he has it.
My OPINION is just an OPINION. This year has been off the charts and it is still not over. Socrates just follows the markets and that is the only tool we have that is not subject to personal opinion which I seriously doubt anyone will be correct in this mess other than sheer luck. Nobody has lived through this type of market. The press attributes the rally to the vaccine. Let’s be honest here, that is propaganda. The Dow took the lead only because of international capital flows.
All next summer we have Directional Changes and a Panic Cycle in August 2021 when the German elections may be postponed. Because the Great Reset is going full-steam-ahead in Europe and the USA is lagging behind, the capital flows can still come to the US under Biden only because Europe is worse. But this does not look like it will end well come 2022.
For now, equities appear OK. But Schwab’s “STAKEHOLDER” economics combined with his “you will own nothing and be happy“, that is a lethal combination that would imply the end of free markets and even shares. Socrates clearly shows they will not be successful and in the process of destroying our Western economies with these lockdowns. This is an invitation to international war. The only thing that has created peace is not nuclear weapons. It has been our consumer-based economies that have benefited China and Russia. Destroy our economies trying to “build back better” is an invitation to war for then China and Russia have nothing to lose but to respond with violence given these people trying to subject them as well to this Great Reset.
Qantas CEO Alan Joyce yesterday said the Australian flag carrier would implement the measure once a coronavirus vaccine was made available to the public. He predicted the rule would become standard practice around the world as governments and airlines consider introducing electronic vaccination passports for a bogus virus with a 99% survival rate like the common cold which is also a coronavirus. World trade will be coming to an abrupt shock. These people are really changing the world and it will not be anything that we would expect. Worse still, they NEVER made this an issue for the people to ever approve. This is tyranny in its worse form.
COMMENT: You frequently explain that economic understanding can only come from personal experience, not a degree. In his book, Memories of Summer, the baseball writer Roger Kahn interviews the great Willie Mays in the 1950s, and Mays explains his success: “… nobody can teach you nothing like you can learn yourself… nobody can write a book that will teach you… you got to learn for yourself and you go do it your way.” SH
REPLY: Yes. I can write and point out the connections. But you have to see them yourself. I have also pointed out that your trading LOSSES are more valuable than your wins. The reason is we all learn from our mistakes unless you are a politician or a leftist who prefers to blame others. The wins we just pat ourselves on the back and never question was it skill or just luck.
One of my favorite people in history was Julius Caesar (100-44BC). He has been the victim of fake news which called him a dictator when he was a man who defended the people against a corrupt oligarchy (see Anatomy of a Debt Crisis). Ut est rerum omnium magister usus(“Experience is the teacher of all things” or more generally “experience is the best teacher“) is a quote attributed to Julius Caesar in De Bello Civile, the war commentaries of the Civil War.
I was impressed by his writings as a young student as was the case with Marcus Aurelius and his Meditations along with Aristotle and Plato.
The 2020 election is a continuation of the Democrats’ long and unrelenting coup against President Trump.
When it became clear that Biden was going to lose, things suddenly stopped. In the key states run by Democrats, no more votes were tallied. The corporate propaganda media for the most part refused to acknowledge Trump victories—especially Florida.
At around 3 a.m. Mountain Time, a CNN announcer sheepishly warned viewers that a sea change had taken place. He knew he was going to lay a big whopper down on us all. Trump’s 100,000 vote lead had magically evaporated and Biden suddenly went ahead by 10,000 votes. This was due to the counting of mailed-in ballots, he said. All those ballots were for Biden. I knew then the Democrats were going to steal the election. I went to bed resigned to that fact.
The Democrats have never given up on their coup attempt. They tried to stop Trump before he was inaugurated. They subjected him to the Russia collusion witch hunt—based on a Hillary Clinton lie. The House impeached him over a routine phone call to Ukraine. Now they’ve gone after Trump by means of blatant cheating.
The Deep State Swamp is populated by too many socialist traitors including a few ‘RINO’ Republicans such as Mitt Romney. John McCain was definitely a traitor.
Biden ran a very poor campaign despite having the mainstream media cover and cheerlead for him. Despite all the money spent by the Biden campaign, Joe drew thin crowds of a hundred at best, whereas Trump had long lines of people waiting hours just to gain entry to crowded venues of tens of thousands just to hear him speak. Biden is a war mongering corrupt career politician and pedophile. Even many progressives despise him. And yet he suddenly racked up huge windfalls of votes in states where Trump had a big lead? Something’s fishy.
Dead people are voting. “Authorities” ordered the application of postmark stamps on late-arriving ballots. Republican observers at polling places were bullied and removed by Democrat operatives. There have been more ballots cast than there are registered voters. Biden’s election coup is obvious and in our face.
The question is, can Trump and his legal team stop it?
If ever there was a time to make your voice heard, it is now. If ever there was a time to march against this corruption, it is now. If ever there was a time to energize against the crimes committed against all Americans, it is now. This is treason
The graph sums up the reality with appalling clarity (See Below). There is widespread, massive cheating going on. The number of registered voters compared to votes and voter turnout make it laughingly obvious that the Democrats have attempted to steal a presidential election nationwide.
What does this mean to the average voter— Republican, Democrat, or Independent? It means that one of our political parties has betrayed us as a people and a nation. It shows that the Democrat party will lie, cheat, and steal your vote, and do it blatantly, defying authorities to stop them, confident they can cover it over with lawyers, money, and threats of violence. They have done this successfully for decades, albeit never to this level. They are stealing your voice as a citizen.
One wonders what they are thinking. Do they really believe we, the American people, are so stupid that we would not see this? The answer has to be a resounding yes. Their hatred of all things Trump, Republican, or Conservative so deranges them that they are betraying every sacred principle foundational to our Republic.
Today they betray open and fair elections; for years they and their surrogates have been demeaning and attacking freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, freedom of association, the right to bear arms, and many others. Each principle they erode results in more power for government and it will not stop until we are all slaves.
Our liberal political and cultural elites embrace this control as long as they are on top pulling our strings, as long as they control the media and social media, as long as they control the narrative. Look at the vicious language they use. Look at their contempt for the average citizen. It is everywhere. Just go to comments in any liberal leftist news site. The articles are bad enough, but the soul of these vile people comes out in the comments.
Your safety and your freedom mean nothing to them, only power and control energizes them. The wanton destruction and violent riots are Democrat creatures, they fund them, and they help organize them. Like vampires, they crave the lifeblood of our nation and will leave behind a burning husk of misery and violence.
If ever there was a time to make your voice heard, it is now. If ever there was a time to march against this corruption, it is now. If ever there was a time to energize against the crimes committed against all Americans, it is now. This is treason; shout it out for all to hear. It must not stand.
The scheme to steal this election is off the charts. One guy in Florida was trying to vote for 400 dead people for Biden. In another case, absentee ballots were sent in with no return address postmarked from South Carolina try to vote for dead people.
In both Michigan and Wisconsin, the election is being stolen by dead people voting for Biden. Dead people have been voting in New York City as well. A commonly expressed concern about vote-by-mail in the United States is that mail-in ballots are sent to dead people, stolen by bad actors, and counted as fraudulent votes. It is not that big of a deal when the votes are not significant enough to change the tally. But in this case, it has been open season for fraud of a grand scale.
During tonight’s Tucker Carlson segment the Fox News host updates the mysterious case of the missing flash drive that was shipped overnight via UPS that disappeared, then reappeared, and no one seems to know how…. WATCH:
When it absolutely, positively, has to be copied by the FBI overnight…
FBI integrity? Honorable rank and file? Please, spare me the oxygen…
I review this story from a position that I cannot fully explain. However, I have personal experience -recent experience- with a similar and rather unusual situation that cannot be explained by any method other than DHS surveillance.
So here’s what I think took place.
The package, likely a Fed-X or UPS overnight delivery, was intercepted by FBI agents using mechanisms for tracking and surveillance that open targeting through portals connected to DHS.
As an outcome of the U.S. Patriot Act, the U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security has an agreement in place with mail shipping companies, public/private services, that essentially allows them a link to the proprietary portal to track all in-state and interstate mail deliveries.
The FBI has access to this data network in the same way the FBI has access to federal transportation records. When you book a flight and DHS portals are open that allow FBI to track your movements domestically. This type of portal is also accessed in private company transportation like Uber, Lyft etc. DHS, and as a consequence the FBI, can easily track your whereabouts using public or private transportation. You willingly carry a transponder -called a cell phone- that assists them with their tracking.
Without much hesitation I will bet the FBI was legally monitoring the communication of Tony Bobulinski, and by extension the entire Tucker Carlson production network. Once the Hunter Biden records shipment was known to be taking place, the DHS portals are opened; the package containing the flash drive is tracked; and the FBI moves in to intercept the delivery.
The transport company (all of them) doesn’t need to be participating because they are essentially unneeded. Their system network is connected to DHS and by extension the FBI. Once the flash drive is copied it then mysteriously reappears… go figure.
