EU Border Chief Says Nothing Can Curb Illegal Migration


Posted Mar 21, 2024 By Martin Armstrong

Europe’s migrant crisis has been multiplying since 2015 when former German Chancellor Angela Merkel opened the gates to Syrian refugees. Everyone and anyone is now descending upon Europe, and with the backing of a centralized government in the form of the European Union, no agency can curb the unsustainable migration crisis because the invasion is deliberate.

Merkel Welcome

Lionel Shriver, head of Frontex and the EU’s border and coastguard coalition, has said that there is nothing that can be done to control migration. “To put it bluntly,” the Dutchman Hans Leijtens told an interviewer from Germany’s Die Welt, “nothing can stop people from crossing a border, no wall, no fence, no sea, no river. Sometimes it’s pretended that you can just put a lid on top of the bottle, and then the migration stops. But that’s a misconception.”

Frontex’s budget increased from €143 million for 2015 when the crisis began to €543 million for 2021. The budget is expected to reach €10,000 by 2027. Now, what is the point of enforcing the border when the politicians are openly welcoming illegal migrants? The corrupt European Commission transformed Frontex into the European Border and Coast Guard Agency in 2015. At the same time, Merkle and others were urging refugees to head to Europe where they would receive a state-funded life.

“Who am I to condemn migrants?” Hans, the man responsible for controlling migration, said. “This talk of ‘stopping people’ and ‘closing borders’ can’t be our narrative all the time. My job is to strike a balance between effective border management and respect for fundamental rights.” Basically, he must appease Brussels and has no authority to act in a way that goes against their narrative.

Similar to the US, the people in charge refuse to recognize that there is a massive migration crisis happening. The house is burning but they will not call the fire department because they refuse to see the flames. Europe’s migrant crisis started before America’s because an anti-establishment candidate who did not obey the globalist agenda secured the vote. All of the World Economic Forum, BUILD BACK BETTER, nations are aligning on a policy of open borders despite the social and economic consequences.

Pushing for War – Ukraine About to Fall

2023_02_21_Putin_Speech 2

For some time, I have reported that Special Forces have been in Ukraine, and Russia knows that. Now, leaked documents have confirmed that reality. Even in Vietnam, there were special forces there well before any official invasion. Ukrainians have used this, claiming that NATO is in Ukraine and hiding in schools using children as cover. Russia has been deploying thermobaric weapons, also known as a vacuum bomb, which is a type of explosive munitions that work by dispersing an aerosol cloud of gas, liquid, or powder, and it is more deadly than a conventional weapon of the same size. It uses the air around it, and this sucks in the oxygen – hence the vacuum bomb. Americans have been killed on the battlefield there, but they are private mercenaries. CNN reported that the dead American was Special Forces.

I have renowned sources, and I have been warning that the figures all along that Ukraine was winning have been nothing but propaganda NEOCONS also being pushed by Victoria Nuland’s sister-in-law, who runs the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), which is all about promoting war. They have been putting out the nonsense that Russia is losing and is weak to sell the idea that the West should just walk in and destroy Russia, and the Russian people will cheer for saving them from Putin.

I could say the same that the Americans would cheer if the Russians came to save us from the warmongering Democrats and RINOs. Both are just absurd statements. Putin is popular despite the BS from the ISW because he was NOT a Communist, and he was NOT an oligarch. To the Russian people – he was their savior from a corrupt government despite the nonsense that others put out because their assets were seized for illegal trading in Russia. Nobody wanted the opposition to Putin, for they were representing the old world of the USSR that nobody wanted to return to.

Khruschev Nikta

Like the Institute for the Study (promotion of) War (ISW), NATO is also an organization that only promotes war; when communism fell in 1991, NATO should have been disbanded or drastically reduced. Instead, it moved eastward, showing it was never about communism. The entire threat was supposed to have been COMMUNISM – not the Russian people as a race. NATO needs to keep the threat of war alive, or they will lose their jobs.

The NEOCON movement really got started because the Communists’ mantra was to spread their economic religion, Marxism, to the world. Marxism so indoctrinated them that they thought this was the way of the future and that it would eliminate the business cycle. Keynes also tried to eliminate the business cycle. This dream of perpetual economic growth and endless deficit spending without ever paying a price down the road.

NY Times Duranty 1931

The New York Times was cheering Stalinism and stressed that this was the solution to the Great Depression. They were promoting Communism as most of the media back them, and they were putting out pure propaganda. It took the New York Times until 1990 to admit that their reporting covered up the truth about Stalin and the massive starvation in an effort, like Schwab, once again, to sell “equality” as our salvation. The New York Times covered up more than 7 million people who died of starvation in the Ukraine famine because it exposed that Communism had failed. The New York Times wrote that their reporting on the Russian Revolution constituted “some of the worst reporting to appear in this newspaper.” They never revoked his Pulitzer Prize for writing fake news about Stalin.

I strongly recommend you watch the movie “Mr. Jones.” This exposes the TRUE STORY of how the New York Times tried to support Communism in the United States back then, with their top journalist, Walter Duranty (1884-1957), who was their main man in Moscow—the New York Times promoted him to be awarded the Pulitzer Prize for reporting on how Communism was Utopia and our future. When Gareth Jones (1905-1935) reported in March 1933 that this was all a lie, the truth finally began to appear.

This is what we face ONCE AGAIN with mainstream media promoting World War III. They NEVER seem to give 2 cents for the people. This is always about their perceived agenda, as they did with COVID. We need a revolution in mainstream media, which has fallen so far that the vast majority no longer trust anything they report, and this is worldwide.

I reported from my sources that 100,000 Ukrainians had been killed in the first few months. I got the typical hate mail that claimed I was putting out Russian propaganda. My sources were from Ukraine – not Russia. Then Ursula delivered a speech and said 100,000 had already died. Zelinsky had he take that out of her speech, claiming that was CLASSIFIED information.

Zelensky.Skulls

Trust me, if Zelensky is assassinated, it will be by Ukrainians who have figured out this guy is a puppet and is destroying his own country with a deal to be whisked off to a villa in Miami when the last Ukrainian falls. He is a comedian in high heels with ZERO expertise in military matters. He has suspended all elections because he would never win an election there after what he has done to Ukraine.

Zelenskyy Johnson

Only after more than 500,000 Ukraians are now dead have the press there begun to publish the truth. Borris Johnson flew urgently to Ukraine to ensure that Zelensky would reject any peace deal because the West was using Ukraine to try to weaken Russia so NATO could then move in for the kill. NOBODY ever expected Ukraine to defeat Russia, which had troops that were 10x that of Ukraine, without drafting people. The West has used the Ukrainian people for their objectives. Zelensky was never allowed to negotiate for peace. He was to destroy his own country for a villa in Miami.

ECM Ukraine 8.6 R

We are now approaching that point where Ukraine is on the verge of losing everything. The first cyclical turning point of importance will be April 19/20, 2024. Zelensky has betrayed his own people, and some are starting to wonder if it is not payback for their hatred of Jews.

Kaganovich Lazar 1893–1991

It was Lazar Kaganovich (1893-1991) who was Stalin’s right-hand man, who proposed and carried out the taking of food from Ukraine that left 7 million dead. The Ukrainians were wrong to blame Russians when Kaganovich was Ukrainian. Behind the facade of propaganda about Russia taking the food, Kaganovich was Jewish and many scholars quietly think he proposed that to also punish the Ukrainians for joining Hitler and exterminating Jews.

Only after becoming president did Zelensky claim publicly to be Jewish, who converted to Christianity, and his children were baptized Christian. Here, he is in an act joking about how they used to confiscate the wealth of Jews and Russians. Some wonder if he is not the 21st Century version of Kaganovich. TRUST ME – If Zelensky is assassinated, it will not be because of Putin. Many people now see him as a traitor to their own people. Even the Neonazis are starting to see he is another Kaganovich.

We are rapidly approaching the point where Ukraine may collapse. This is why Macrone came out and talked about sending in NATO Troops. We are approaching the day when the last Ukrainian is about to fall.

EU Wants War

Europe wants war at all costs BECAUSE the financial system is collapsing. They never consolidated their debts, as I warned them that the Euro could not survive long-term without a single national debt. All they accomplished was to transfer the currency risk to the bond markets.

NATO F16s 2024

Meanwhile, NATO has changed the terms that the US would approve F16s only to defend Ukraine. NATO says they have permission to fly into Russia to attack anything inside Russia. There is NO HOPE to avoid war without a wholesale change in leadership among ALL Western governments because they now NEED war. There are plenty of people who are just brainwashed and think what the world needs is to destroy Putin. The sanctions did not work, and our computer warned the West that it would lose. This is total insanity.

Biden Secon Term

Others are silently cheering war in hopes of reducing the population, all to reduce CO2.

Nobody seems to think about the future or WHAT IF they are wrong.

World War III is coming Sooner than you may think, Be Prepared


Attached is a PDF file that is explaining how we have gotten to the point that a Third World War is very likely. The blame for this resides in Klaus Schwab who created the World Economic Form (WEF) in 1971. Schwab has written two books on his theories which are a cross on Marxism and Technocracy which will be explained in the attached paper. His first book published in 2016 was The Fourth Industrial Revolution and the second published in 2020 was COVID-19: The Great Reset. In this book Klaus has the help of Thierry Malleret a French economist. Klaus and is associates have since 1971 has taken over the European Union (EU) as his followers now hold most if not all key EU positions.

Klaus and his supporters believe that only “technical” people are capable of ruling us. Because only people with degrees in science, engineering economics and medicine to name a few and the intelligence and know how to properly rule us. His long term goal is Trans-humanism, which is the belief that “WE” can be uploaded into an danced computer and therefor live forever. I have background in the fields need to do this if it was possible and my option is Klaus is dreaming. The attached book is a free download and the one that is attached here is a “Version 01” and there will be new uploads of this book as justified by new data and research.

The image below reflects the world that Klaus wants to create. As you can see he lives in the Utopian upper city and we live in the Primitive Serf/slave lower city.

This is the world that the world elites want to make!

Curiouser and Curiouser – You Decide


Posted originally on the CTH on March 18, 2024 | Sundance 

Within the U.K the timing of the 2024 election is decided by the Prime Minister [LINK].  “Prime Minister Rishi Sunak can call an election at any time up to Dec. 17, with the election taking place 25 working days later.”  Most political followers expect PM Sunak to hold the election in the Autum of this year.

Now watch:

[Transcript] – “GB News is under threat. The other broadcasters don’t like it. Adam Boulton, long-time veteran of Sky News, said that GB News was damaging the ecosystem of broadcasting, by which he means it’s our little club and we don’t question climate change or mass immigration. We thought EU membership was wonderful, how dare you come along and give us a hard time.

Now the problems are getting very, very real. The industry is regulated by Ofcom. They have decided to put my programme under investigation on the basis they say that I’m a politician. Well, you know what? Even I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here had me as an ex-politician. I am not actively involved in politics at all, but they don’t like it. And some more of the great and the good are hosting a conference in Sheffield. Have a look at this. It’s absolutely bizarre.

They’re saying that GB News is a threat to democracy, so it must be closed down. No sense of irony from these people whatsoever. They don’t agree with much of what is said. Therefore, they simply want the channel closed down. And I also think that the big political parties perhaps don’t like GB News too much, because it does genuinely question many of the things that are going wrong in this country and around which there is a huge consensus in Western.

Worse than that, we have a situation where commercial television and radio survives through advertisements. That model has been there for a very, very long time. But there’s an organisation called Stop Funding Hate who seem themselves to have quite a lot of money. And if anybody advertises on GB News, they will get dozens of emails every day from Stop Funding Hate saying you’re funding a channel that is damaging democracy, you are funding a channel that is causing division. And frankly, you know, if you’re a marketing officer for a holiday company and you’re bombarded by nasty, aggressive emails, you probably think, you know what, we can’t be bothered with this. So we are under assault from the regulator.

We’re under assault from the rest of the industry. We’re under assault in terms of our advertising, without which keeping the channel going long term is not easy. But there’s a reason, folks, why all this is happening. You won’t really hear much about this, but here goes. You might have noticed that GB News.com is growing rapidly. 

In fact, it is the fastest-growing news website in the country and has been for the last ten consecutive months. We are now the 12th most-read news website in this country, and within a couple of weeks, I think we’re going to be in the top ten. So they don’t like the fact we’re doing so well online. But what really depresses them is what’s happening with live viewing.

Look, I get it. Lots of you now watch things on, catch up. Lots of you watch things on clips. But there are still people that still tune in. So my show goes out on GB News, 7 to 8 p.m. Monday to Thursday. If you look at these figures, these are the figures for the last week or so and they will show you that my show every single night beats the BBC News channel. It beats Sky News. It beats what’s left of Talk TV. In fact, on several of those evenings, if you add up all the other news channels, even together, their number is not as high as my show and across the whole day, we had a period just gone where for six out of eight days the channel beat Sky News across the whole day.

Our numbers are going up both live, on catch-up, on YouTube, on all forms of social media. The industry now sees us as a threat. The political establishment see us as a challenge. I sense there is an epic battle coming between now and the general election. There will be every attempt made to get me off air and every attempt made, frankly, to even get GB News off air.

You know, all these people in Westminster, the political class, the media class, they don’t believe in choice. They don’t believe in real debate. They basically think that anybody with a different point of view should be cancelled and shut down. Well, let me assure you, we are going to fight like hell and we’re not going to let them win. And if you believe in free speech, open debate, where you hear both sides of an argument. Please, please support us in whatever way you can at GB News because we are under serious attack.”

Barack Obama visited Rishi Sunak today.

There is an information war afoot.

Comrade Suspicious Cat remains, well, suspicious….

Europe Illegally Confiscating Russian Assets Because they NEED Cash


Posted originally on Mar 17, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

ECM Ukraine 8.6 R

As we head into a critical turning point of April 19/20, 2024 in this Proxy War the West has organized against Russia from the outset, Ukraine is on the verge of collapsing. Instead of peace, even after more than 500,000 Ukrainians are dead, the West is out for more blood. The Ukrainian people have always been just cannon fodder as they have been played for fools by the Neocons.

Zelenskyy Johnson

The West will NOT allow Ukraine to enter any peace negotiations with Russia. The tensions are rising even in Ukraine against the West as people are beginning to see that the world cares nothing about them or their nation. The peace deal that Boris Johnson jumped on a plane to ensure they would not stop the war has opened the eyes of a rising voice of discontent inside Ukraine. Many are starting to see that Zelensky is a puppet of the Neocons and NATO and that the Ukrainian people are expendable.

2019 Zelensky Wins

It is not up to the Ukrainian people whether there will be peace or not. The election of Zelensky is suspected to have been rigged by the West, and Zelensky ran promising peace with Russia after the American Neocons instructed the interim UNELECTED government to attack the Donbas and start the Civil War.

DW 3 14 24 ONLY West will decide Peace for Ukraine

It is painfully obvious that the Ukrainian people have no right to vote on the fate of their own country. Zelensky suspended elections, making him a de facto dictator. Hence, even Russia has recognized, after numerous offers for peace, that Russia’s foreign minister explained that he believes ONLY the West can decide when the war in Ukraine ends, given its support for Kiev.

Zelensky has been telling the people the propaganda that  Ukraine will win if the West keeps the money flowing. Russia’s army was 10x that of Ukraine before 500,000 Ukrainians were killed. There is ABSOLUTELY nobody in any European government, no less Washington, that EVER expected Ukraine to win. The objective was to use the Ukrainian people to weaken Russia. Even Lindsay Graham said it was the best money Congress ever spent to kill Russians. The plan all along was for NATO to deliver the final kill.

3 25 24 Europe_To_Arm_Ukraine_Using_Profits_From_Seized_Russian_Funds

The West is on the edge of a financial crisis. It is running out of cash and trying to enforce this climate-wokeness-hate-Russia agenda. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Friday endorsed a plan to buy weapons for Ukraine using profits generated from seized Russian assets. Of course, Russia has violated international law by seizing the assets. If they hand the Russian assets to the most corrupt government on the face of the Earth, Russia will confiscate all the private assets held by Europeans and Americans and be justified in doing so because there is no rule of law remaining.

Scholz announced this alongside of Macron of France and Tusk of Poland. He said:

“We will use windfall profits from Russian assets frozen in Europe to financially support the purchase of weapons for Ukraine,”

house_of_cards_fall_anim_300_clr_14631

There is absolutely no question that we are headed into a very serious sovereign debt default. Western governments have been engaging in a Ponzi scheme, and the house of cards comes crashing down when they can no longer sell new debt to redeem the old. They need this war as an excuse to cover up their fiscal mismanagement, and they will then start all over again with digital currencies and their intended Bretton Woods II. The mere fact that they are tapping into Russia’s assets PROVES beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are running out of money.

All of this is to promote war, for they see that as their way out. Macron proposed sending troops into Ukraine, knowing that it was an act of war and would mean that all of Europe would now be a target for Russia. The common people of Russia, Europe, the USA, Canada, Japan, and China DO NOT support war. War is always created by the leaders, and we are expected to die and surrender our future and that of our children all for their mismanagement.

Putin Wins Transparent Russian Reelection, Biden Calls it a Dictatorship – Zelensky Cancels Ukraine Elections, Biden Calls it a Democracy


Posted originally on the CTH on March 18, 2024 | Sundance

It really is a transparently obvious contrast that highlights how far the west has fallen. Russia holds transparent elections and Vladimir Putin wins 87% of the vote, resoundingly being reelected; yet Biden calls it a dictatorship. Meanwhile Ukraine cancels all elections, Zelensky declares the political opposition party unlawful; yet Biden calls it a democracy.

The totalitarian areas and liberty areas are ideologically inverting as a direct outcome of western governments deliberately cleaving the globe. What they call “globalism” is actually a fracturing of the international compact. This reality is now transparent and obvious to the ordinary person, and the Ukraine vs Russia example stands as direct evidence of just how abusive the Western government gaslighting has become.

(Via Reuters) – President Vladimir Putin won a record post-Soviet landslide in Russia’s election on Sunday, cementing his already tight grip on power in a victory he said showed Moscow had been right to stand up to the West and send its troops into Ukraine.

[…] The outcome means Putin, 71, is set to embark on a new six-year term that will see him overtake Josef Stalin and become Russia’s longest-serving leader for more than 200 years if he completes it.

Putin won 87.8% of the vote, the highest ever result in Russia’s post-Soviet history, according to an exit poll by pollster the Public Opinion Foundation (FOM). The Russian Public Opinion Research Centre (VCIOM) put Putin on 87%. First official results indicated the polls were accurate. The United States, Germany, the United Kingdom and other nations have said the vote was neither free nor fair due to the imprisonment of political opponents and censorship.

Communist candidate Nikolai Kharitonov finished second with just under 4%, newcomer Vladislav Davankov third, and ultra-nationalist Leonid Slutsky fourth.

Putin told supporters in a victory speech in Moscow that he would prioritize resolving tasks associated with what he called Russia’s “special military operation” in Ukraine and would strengthen the Russian military.

“We have many tasks ahead. But when we are consolidated – no matter who wants to intimidate us, suppress us – nobody has ever succeeded in history, they have not succeeded now, and they will not succeed ever in the future,” said Putin. (read more)

The average Russian person doesn’t hate the average American person, not even close.  However, it is fair to say the aggregate Russian government presents a general outlook of spite toward the American government as a direct result of the domestic gaslighting, fraud and institutional lying that shapes the views of most U.S. citizens.

Internally our USA national pride is being eroded as our abusers gleefully continue their efforts.  Some Russian voices really understand this dynamic and feel almost a sense of pity toward the average American.  We are losing something very valuable, and the leftists/communists really don’t care because they hate our country.  President Donald Trump is correct to keep pointing this out, “they hate our country.”

The most hypocritical elements of this abuse cycle are not just evident today, the overall “western” response during the COVID-19 scam was a case study in projection.

Vladimir Putin did not arrest moms in playgrounds in Michigan during the COVID hype.

Russian police officers did not arrest paddleboarders off the beach in Malibu.

The FSB didn’t fill skate parks with sand, or shut down restaurants, or destroy the livelihoods of middle America.

It wasn’t the Kremlin police arresting people in New York City for going to restaurants without authorization papers.

It wasn’t the Russian police firing rubber bullets into the crowds in Melbourne, Australia, because the people refused to wear masks.

It wasn’t Moscow who created “bubbles” in New Zealand demanding a person apply for a permit before visiting their elderly parents, or arresting people for going to McDonalds and trying to navigate through police checkpoints and roadblocks.

It wasn’t the armed Russian military who set up involuntary detainment facilities in Australia and then called them quarantine camps- where if you crossed the arbitrary yellow line painted on the porch of your detainment cabin, you would be arrested and thrown into solitary confinement.  It was western political leadership called “democratic” premiers and national democratic leaders of the Scott Morrison administration.

It wasn’t the Russian intelligence services who monitored Facebook accounts in Canada and questioned people who dare speak about the concept of liberty or raise concerns about totalitarian dictates.

It wasn’t Vladimir Putin who declared a national emergency in Canada, then arrested his political opposition for protesting in downtown Ottawa.   And it certainly was not the Russian government who confiscated the bank accounts of dissident citizens who dared to raise their voices in support of truck drivers.  It was Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

It wasn’t Russia who hired state-sponsored hunters to track down unvaccinated citizens in Austria, fine them and confiscate their wages if they did not comply with vaccines.

It wasn’t Vladimir Putin who blocked those citizens from shopping in supermarkets forcing citizens into a black-market just to scrounge for food and essential medicine.  It was the government of Austria.

It wasn’t the police in Moscow who set up vaccine checkpoints in Paris and demanded formerly free citizens to show their authorization papers to sit outside at a cafe table.

If Western leaders like Joe Biden think they have some credibility to stand in their G7 assembly and talk about the value of democracy, they would be well served if their handlers mentioned how their insufferable ‘gaslighting’ was now falling on deaf ears.

Few things raise the anger of people to a level where foul language is the better option than the physical violence that might surface without it. However, this level of hypocrisy and pretense is surely pushing the boundaries.

To all the leaders of various “western democracies” who will now clutch their pearls as the backlash from the citizens starts to come full circle, you did this to yourself.

No one is to blame other than Biden, Trudeau, Ardern, Morrison, Macron, Johnson et al and the leaders of NATO, all political abusers, who suddenly demand the support of the citizens they abuse in order to fend off their new enemy, Vladimir Putin.

My last point on this Russian election.  You might remember when the people of Egypt voted after the NATO alliance and Obama/Clinton group helped install the Muslim Brotherhood (Mohammed Morsi).  The USA meddled in the politics of Egypt, removed Hosni Mubarek and installed an Islamic extremist.

The Egyptian people were horrified by what Morsi was doing and begged General al-Sisi to help them.

Much like Vladimir Putin, Egyptian candidate Fattah Abdel al-Sisi won the next election with over 80% of the vote.

The freedom and liberty inversion continues…

…. And it’s strange how few people can see it.

Would You Feed Bugs to Your Pet?


Posted Mar 15, 2024 By Martin Armstrong

Tyson Foods announced on October of last year that they would begin using insects as a key protein source in their foods. The World Economic Forum under Klaus Schwab has touted the idea of replacing domestic livestock with insects in an effort to reduce emissions and force the masses to live with the lease while they acquire the most.

Protix is a Netherlands-based company partnering with Tyson Foods to provide “sustainable” solutions to a non-existent problem. They will begin by poisoning our animals. Protix published a study on the Journal of Insects as Food and Feed that involved a mere eight female beagle dogs who were fed ProteinX, – a protein meal that is produced from the larvae of the black soldier fly. The study claims that these dogs experienced a reduction in bad breath and concluded that placing cheap insect protein in wet and dry dog food and dog treats could benefit their oral health.

Protix is developing LipidX, an insect oil that they hope will replace traditional methods. They’re developing Flytilizer as an alternative to fertilizer. They are also aiming to replace soy meal for chickens with live larvae. This is one of many companies that are aiming to replace not only our food supply, but the food supply of the animals we eat.

Insects.Bugs_.WorldEconomicForum.WEF_

So what ingredient should you look for to avoid ground insect remains on your plate? Well, in the US, the FDA does not have any clear guidelines nor do they have a plan to label insect-laced foods. The FDA currently permits an “average of 60 or more insect fragments per 100 grams, or equivalent – 21 CFR 110.110(c)(4)” of insect remains in our foods, but this is due to unsanitary manufacturing policies. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the FDA also permits human hair to fall into our food during the manufacturing process, so long as it is less than one strand per 50 grams. I do apologize to those who have not had breakfast – rodent filth is also permitted in our foods at an average of 1 excreta pellet less than 1 millimeter long per 100 grams.

The same organization pushing insect protein is toying with the idea of outright banning personal gardens. The WEF believes people should “start small and work [their] way up,” to begin to stomach insect consumption. They want us to normalize eating insects as they fly on their private jets from their private yachts to Davos, ravishingly consuming the best of the best. Some governments, like Italy’s, are placing restrictions on insect proteins and cloned meats. Still, the majority of the West is looking to punish the masses for existing by poisoning our food supply.

COMMENT: I have investigated what you have said about our Western leaders. From the US to Britain, the Balkans, France, Poland, and Germany, they all want war. I am 77 now. My whole life was about creating peace. I remember Richard Nixon opening China and dividing it from Russia. I believe you are correct.  There is no explanation for everyone seeking war other than to hide their appalling government mismanagement.

Thank you for your analysis. It is always unmatched.

Athens Owl 449 413BC Egyptian Imitation

REPLY: History repeats, and human nature never changes. We have the model from Rome, the greatest empire ever created. The Pax Romana was achieved by everyone benefiting in their economic relations. Once these people removed Russia from the SWIFT system, they condemned the United States to its demise. The rise of the BRICS has nothing to do with fiat money. All money has always been fiat. From ancient times, we find imitation coinage of the dominant economy being created by other regions, showing that there was always a premium over the metal content if it was a coin of the dominant economy like the US dollar today. Here is an imitation of an Athenian Owl stuck by the Egyptians, who never had coins until they were conquered nearly 100 years later by Alexander the Great. They issued imitation Athenian Owls because they were the currency of international trade.

Julius Caesar AR Denarius Imitation Genuine

Even the Celts, when Julius Caesar conquered Europe, still imitated his coinage. The metal was virtually the same, so it was a counterfeit but an imitation. The Celts still used Roman coinage for their monetary system.

Celtic Imitation of Greek Stater Philip II

Even 300 years before Caesar, when the Macedonians were the dominant economic power of Phillip II and his son Alexander the Great, we find Celtic imitations of Macedonian gold where they at least tried to imitate the design.

Julio Claudian Imitations

Even after Caesar conquered Europe, we find Germanic imitations of Roman bronze coinage. Once more, they could have created their own coinage but imitated the coinage of Rome.

Faustina Sr Imitations

As trade expanded with India, we find a series of Indian imitations of Roman gold coinage running the course of 300 years. We see Celtic imitations of Roman coinage as well as Germanic coinage, which also ran for about 300 years.

Leo I Siliqua Imitation

The fact that we have hundreds of years of imitations of the dominant economy PROVES beyond a shadow of a doubt that the coinage was NOT based on the metal content; there was always a premium applied to the dominant currency in the world at that time.

Fiat Money

This entire nonsense that the dollar is just a fiat currency is absurd. The value of ANY currency is the strength of its economy. The dollar has been the RESERVE currency BECAUSE everyone wanted to sell their products to American consumers.

Pax Romana 2

The PAX Romana took place BECAUSE all the conquered lands found it was beneficial to be part of the empire, for they could sell their products. World Peace was created by allowing free trade as the Romans did. Then, the people would oppose any local politician preaching war, for it would cut off their income. We were on the verge of world peace before COVID-19, when everyone participated in the world economy. Today, that has all been destroyed. Peace is no longer fashionable – it is hatred and war that now define world leaders.

This is a lesson our Politicians Must Learn, and the Neocons in

America – Europe – Russia – China

at really the enemies of the people. 

War is never created by the people – only by the elites in power.

Right on Inflation, Wrong on Tariffs – Gary Cohn Outlines Biden Inflation and State of Economy for 2024 Election


Posted originally on the CTH on March 10, 2024 | Sundance

Gary Cohn appears on Face The Nation to discuss the finance, the economy and the pain felt by consumers.  He won’t say it directly, for obvious reasons, but what Cohn describes in terms of political support boils down to Main Street business supporting Donald Trump and Wall Street Multinational Corporations supporting Joe Biden.  That is ultimately what is obvious at a macro level.

I’m starting the video at 03:08 for the purposes of emphasizing inflation.  What Cohn says about U.S. inflation is essentially accurate and I have a Cliff Notes, tldr, HERE.  However, what Cohn says about tariffs creating inflation is not accurate, as outlined by the 2017 through 2020 results of Trump tariff policy.  Cohn says, “No one absorbs tariffs, except the consumer,” this is false.  As we saw in 2017, 2018, and 2019 China, Asia and the EU essentially dropped their export prices to retain access to the USA market and offset tariff costs.  That’s just a statistical reality.

The transcript is HERE; however, I want to draw attention to a geopolitical aspect that is not getting enough attention.  Specifically, the cost of FOOD PRODUCTS and the attached inflation.

Why is food inflation continuing to be a problem?  Why is food inflation not just a USA problem?  Why are the EU farmers protesting?  These questions are easily answered, and yet no one in the Western financial press will explain.

The Build Back Better agenda, known in the USA colloquially as the Green New Deal, carries with it massive increases in cost for energy products.  Fertilizer, which needs natural gas, and farming, which needs large amounts of fuel, diesel and fuel oil, uses costly energy products.  Packaging, plastics (petroleum derivatives) and cardboard also require large amounts of energy.

The manufacturing (heating, cooling, freezing) as well as storage and transportation of food products also use massive amounts of energy.  Additionally, and specifically because of the nature of their consumption, the increased energy costs associated with generating food travels quickly through the supply chain.

Food inflation is always the first thing you notice when the prices of energy products skyrocket.  This is well known and not subject to debate; everyone accepts this.

In the past 30 +/- years, large multinational corporations known as Big Ag have created a system where the USA generates a massive amount of the global food supply.

The advent of modern farming fertilizer, pesticides, seed genetics and other farming products/equipment that increase crop yield, has also been a big factor in the capacity of the USA and Western farming world to increase production.  As the globe became more reliant on the production efficiencies of the Big Ag “Western world,” they simultaneously became dependent on the outcome.  That dependency put them at risk of feeling the impact of inflation when you think about the farm products.

The result was that when Western Ag farming costs skyrocketed, the high cost of harvest outcomes were not just felt in the USA and/or Western nations.  As food production costs increased, the higher costs of production transferred into all the exported products.  Food inflation was exported globally.

The Western Build Back Better and Green New Deal energy policies subsequently meant the world was going to pay a higher price for food globally.  That’s what happened.

The Yellow Zone was responsible for a higher percentage of global food production.  The Yellow Zone is also the place where energy policy was changed in such a radical format that massive increases in energy costs were created.

The Yellow Zone (geopolitically the “West”) drove up the cost of farming, the Gray Zone pays a higher price.  This was all by design and not accidental.  The corporations who supported the BBB/GRD agenda all benefit.  The citizens who need to eat, do not benefit.

So, when you see EU farmers protesting against the ridiculous ENERGY POLICY changes of the West, you must accept the USA bears a greater responsibility for creating and demanding the increased prices that farmers globally are having to deal with.

In Gray Zone areas, where domestic food production costs are not subject to the changed energy policy, there is little to no food inflation.  However, the more dependent the country is to food imports (ingredients or final product) the more they are impacted by rising farming costs.

Grey Zone countries that can self-sustain on the production of food and have no energy agenda have little food inflation.

The more the country is strangling energy production and driving up energy prices, the higher the cost of farming and subsequently the higher index on food inflation.  The two metrics are directly related.

Food inflation globally is a big problem.  Western energy policy is exactly why!
