It’s Just Our Turn


Armstrong Economics Blog/Geopolitical Re-Posted Oct 28, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

This is not my only source about terrorist cells moving into the USA because Biden has opened the borders. The open border has had two objectives. Democrats in Texas are already pushing that illegal aliens should be allowed to vote. They are being joined nationally and Biden will do an executive order to allow them to vote pre-2024  if we even get to an election.

The Democrats see this as changing America to wipe out the Republican opponents. The LEFT has determined to end freedom and democracy just like Zelinsky – it will be their way or no way! I have been to Texas recently, where people are concerned about the flood of illegal aliens.

However, they have DELIBERATELY allowed terrorist cells to enter so they can justify more restraints upon our freedom to even move. Welcome to the decline and fall of the United States. Don’t get upset. Communism fell in 1989. It’s just our turn since there are 34 years to this cycle.

It looks like the manhunt for the Maine mass shooter Robert Card is over.

Apparently, his body was found near Lisbon where he abandoned his vehicle.  A self-inflicted gunshot to the head.

(Daily Mail) – Maine mass shooter Robert Card has been found dead in the woods with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head, multiple sources told CNN.

Card, 40, was found near Lisbon, where his car was abandoned shortly after Wednesday’s massacre.

Eighteen people died when Card, an army reservist who had suffered a recent mental breakdown, opened fire at a bowling alley and bar in Lewiston.

Card went on the run, sparking a 48-hour manhunt. (link)

Why Are Death and Disability Rising Among Young Americans? | Opinion


Posted Originally on Oct 26, 2023 at 6:00 AM

FLCCC’s Dr. Pierre Kory and co-author Mary Beth Pfeiffer have an op-ed in Newsweek magazine this week, after penning an article in USA Today in August. 

The new opinion piece highlights the alarming increase in the number of American adults unable to work — up to 3.5 million since January 2020 and a staggering 1.5 million just this year alone.

To date, there is no government-funded research into or explanation for this rise — Dr. Kory and Ms. Pfeiffer call for an unbiased, nonpartisan investigation into the trend, and a deeper analysis of COVID vaccine-related injuries and deaths.

While Newsweek’s opinion section has opened up to diverse perspectives and encouraged debate, there has been no appetite for this line of inquiry about COVID vaccines – until now. Creatively crafted to not overtly state the (glaringly obvious) cause, but offering up key suggestions, this article has the ability to reach an even wider audience and not only start the conversation, but hopefully the investigation as well. As a result, the messages so critical to FLCCC will extend further and can spur action.

“FLCCC is dedicated to driving awareness of these grave health concerns across the political media divide,” said Dr. Kory. “We are blazing a trail with new audiences who are not seeing this information anywhere else.”

Our summer op-ed in USA Today had a readership reach of 2.6 million. With this recent placement in Newsweek (1.1 million daily readers), we are demonstrating that FLCCC is uniquely positioned to shine a light on the destructive impact of COVID vaccines. Indeed, as a data-driven medical organization with treatment guidelines for COVID, long COVID, and vaccine injury, we are distinctly qualified to highlight this vital issue, bring it into the public conversation, and onto the U.S. political agenda as the presidential election heats up.  

Please share this article with your network and consider making a donation to help us expose the devastating reality behind mass COVID vaccinations. With your support, we can advocate for change and encourage policymakers to pursue the investigations needed to inform and protect the American public.

On behalf of the health of all, we thank you.

Ken Paxton Asks Court for Restraining Order to Stop Biden Administration from Cutting Down Border Barriers and Barbed Wire


Posted originally on the CTH on October 27, 2023 | Sundance |

Earlier today Mike Lee sent this little bit of raw data from the border, “In the last 4 weeks alone (since the beginning of FY2024), the Border Patrol in the Rio Grande Sector has apprehended 5 illegal immigrants from Afghanistan, 19 from Syria, and 75 from China. It’s not a stretch—in fact, it’s putting it mildly—to say “they might not mean us well.” {link}  It is very concerning to think about who is walking into our country.

Earlier today, Texas AG Ken Paxton also asked the court for a restraining order against Joe Biden’s administration who are taking down border barriers and cutting through barbed wire in order to increase the flow of illegal aliens. [Court Filing Here] AG Paxton wants the court to stop Biden from opening the border.

TEXAS – Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a motion for a temporary restraining order on an emergency basis after federal agents escalated their destruction of Texas’s barrier at the State’s border with Mexico. The federal government’s renewed effort to destroy Texas’s barrier and assist aliens’ entry into the country follows just days after Texas filed a lawsuit against the Biden Administration’s Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”), DHS Secretary Mayorkas, and other agencies for numerous documented incidents of barrier destruction and occasions on which federal agents facilitated aliens’ mass entry during a severe immigration surge in recent months. 

Texas is seeking an order that would enjoin federal agents from cutting, destroying, damaging, or otherwise interfering with Texas’s concertina wire fence. (link

Senator Chuck Grassley Outlines Details of FBI HQ Running National Coverup Operation to Protect Biden Family from Investigation


Posted originally on the CTH on October 26, 2023 | Sundance 

A few thoughts about the letter itself before getting to the substance.  {pdf link Here}

First, as you are likely aware, the Senators and Committee heads/ranking members do little of the investigative effort themselves. This is where the value of exceptional staff comes into play, along with the background battle between a small group of congressional aides and assistants -vs- an army of Lawfare operatives. The battle to reveal truth takes place deep in the trenches of hidden government, and the only weapon on the side of the righteous is the ultimate weapon – the truth.

Second, again with a familiar approach, this letter is not penned to the recipient FBI Director Christopher Wray, in as much as it is an alarm sounded by Senator Grassley’s office to the larger American audience.  This is essentially Grassley saying to We The People, here’s the evidence of how inherently corrupt and politicized the FBI has become. The motive appears to be providing damaging information the media will avoid mentioning, discussing or outlining.

DC FBI Building, left – Main Justice DOJ Building, right. 

In summary of the 7-page letter, it describes a national effort by the FBI to cover up the activity of Hunter and Joe Biden’s illicit financial dealings.  Because the Biden family essentially operated a network of financial schemes that touched on multiple areas and interests, the activity itself was tracked by the FBI through a series of several dozen Confidential Human Sources (CHS’s) and informants in multiple jurisdictions throughout the U.S.

Because the various field offices and CHS/Informant networks were diverse and widespread, the DC FBI needed a control mechanism that would throw a bag over all the activity coast to coast.  The mechanism they chose was the familiar “Foreign Influence Disinformation” designation.  The FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force was the DC organization -an institutional tool per se’- used to block, impede and eliminate sunlight upon the information that was surfacing from multiple investigations of the Biden family.

Grassley walks through examples of how the central HQ of the FBI deployed the label of “disinformation” in order to get various field offices to discredit their own investigative tools, CHS’s and informants.   The way it worked would be central FBI command would label an investigative lead as “disinformation”, and that would throw a bag over the field office outcome.  The CHS’s and informants were then undermined, discredited and cut loose from the record keeping of the FBI.

Essentially, labeling the findings as foreign disinformation was the protective shield to remove the evidence of the Biden family activity.  This was done from Washington DC through the main FBI headquarters.  The downstream field offices were then shut down by administrative labeling, and the issues they uncovered were eliminated.   This is a familiar process to those who have followed the deep weeds of how the FBI operates.

The importance of the Grassley letter goes beyond Joe and Hunter Biden; it cuts to the heart of a system of corruption within the FBI that many Americans became familiar with in the aftermath of the FBI activity against Donald Trump in the Russiagate storyline.  The FBI is metastatically corrupt, with the origin of the cancer in Washington DC, and the efforts of the Foreign Influence Task Force becoming the method to spread the corrupt infection nationally.

The Grassley letter originates from information provided by whistleblowers inside the FBI who were subjected to having their investigations nulled by Washington DC.  Apparently, some of those who had time, effort and investigative resources dedicated to the honest investigation of the Biden family scheme, did not like seeing their investigations shut down simply because Christopher Wray and other politically active leaders in the DC command center of the FBI did not want the Biden family exposed.

This pattern of activity, the institutional preservation issue, is exactly what was noted in the previous Trump-Russia targeting effort.  Former AG Bill Barr and all of the officers and investigative officials therein, were also in alignment with this institutional preservation approach.  The FBI throwing a bag over the Biden corruption schemes, is yet another example of a decision to preserve a corrupt system rather than allowing the American public to see it, thereby running the risk of collapse.

I would strongly urge everyone to take the time to read the 7-page outline provided by Senator Grassley’s office, along with the investigative staff and resources of Senator Ron Johnson.  While they are unnamed, I am certain that I have personally met some of the people who put this outline together.

[Read Full 7-Page Report]

[…] “It is unclear how many confidential human sources, or how many of their reports, were categorized as disinformation by the Foreign Influence Task Force, but the whistleblower told Grassley that the FBI’s improper branding of the information as “disinformation” “caused investigative activity to cease.”

Margot Cleveland, Federalist 

Beyond the details, granular information, citations and evidence, what becomes crystal clear is that every root and branch of the FBI is now politically corrupt.  It is an institution now more akin to the Russian FSB than it is to a USA national investigative agency.   It simply cannot be reformed.

The U.S. Dept of Justice and FBI are now political institutions that have abandoned their originating mission in order to become the domestic equivalent of the Soviet-era FSB. Their joint targeting mechanisms have been redesigned to support the interests of corrupt DC politicians – specifically the interests of Democrats.  Grassley is giving specifics to what has been visible for years.

This is why and how the Fourth Branch of U.S. Government is now the superseding apparatus above all other branches.  {GO DEEP} This is why and how Barack Obama, John Brennan and Eric Holder created it, cemented it, and made it impervious to any effort to remove it.

The Fourth Branch of Government is evil Sauron, and Washington DC is Mordor. The corrupt media have aligned with it; they are preserving it; and the institutions in/around the DC system are self-aware, acting to support it and fully autonomous.

Additionally, to overlay their ability to monitor every single aspect of every life that might seek to challenge or destroy it, the end game of surveillance outlined by Edward Snowden is active.

Crime in US is an Internal Operation


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Oct 26, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

El Salvador was the murder capital of the world not long ago. The country has gone over 300 days without a homicide after El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele implemented a zero-tolerance policy for gang  violence. The nation rounded up over 50,000 suspected gang members, also referred to as terrorists, and the rest likely fled to the US since the border is non-existent. Since the system has been very efficient, videos of Bukele criticizing US politicians for allowing crime to escalate across America are beginning to recirculate.

The demise of America has to come from within,” Bukele told Tucker Carlson. “The enemies have to be inside. No external enemy can cause so much damage as internal. It is an internal operation. You’re watching an internal operation here. You can see them and see these cities that were pristinely beautiful 30 years ago are wastelands now,” he stated. He went on to say that he admits he is from a third-world country but would feel unsafe in any US city due to violent crime.

Now Bukele was harshly criticized for rounding up the criminals but it worked. Crime is on the rise in America but our policies are continually favoring the criminals. “When you look how the cities are eroding so fast, this has to be by design. I mean who would make so many stupid decisions?” Bukele asked Carlson. “They’re literally giving some people drugs in some us cities, or they say we’re going to give you money if you don’t work. They make all these laws that make no sense. If they have high crime, they say okay I have a solution, let’s defund the police.”

I continually point to the Cloward-Piven Strategy of creating civil unrest. Look at what the Open Society Foundation promoted during the last election. They funded protests in all major US cities, violent protests where people were murdered and small business were burned to the ground. They funded the media to report on how the criminals were misunderstood and the police needed to be defunded. Some ask whether people have simply lost their minds after COVID. Perhaps, but the real reason the US is spiraling down internally is INTENTIONAL. Burn it down to BUILD BACK BETTER.

UPDATE – Manhunt Underway – 22 People Killed in Lewiston, Maine, by Mass Shooter Still at Large – 50 to 60 Wounded


Posted originally on the CTH on October 25, 2023 | Sundance 

[NOTEUnconfirmed reports identify the gunman as Robert Card, 40, (DOB 4/4/83) from Bowdoin, Maine; a former sergeant in U.S. Army with 20+ years of military experience. Again, this is not yet confirmed.]

UPDATE 11:30pm ET:  Robert Card (dob 04/04/83) has been officially confirmed as a “person of interest.”

(Fox News) –  At least 22 people are dead following a deadly shooting in a Maine city that spanned three locations on Wednesday night, Fox News has confirmed.

Fox News has confirmed that the active shooter incident occurred at three locations— Schemengees Bar and Grille Restaurant, a Walmart store and Sparetime Recreation.

Maine State Police said, in a Facebook post, that there is an active shooting situation in Lewiston, a city of 36,000, 35 miles north of Portland.

[…] The Androscoggin County Sheriff’s Office shared two photos of the suspect, who was wearing a brown sweatshirt, and holding a rifle.

Authorities told residents in Lewiston to “shelter in place” and to “stay inside your home with the doors locked.” (read more)

(NBC NEWS) –  At least 22 people were killed in the shootings, according to a Lewiston police source.

Fifty to 60 people were wounded after a man fired at several locations, including a Lewiston bowling alley, said four law enforcement officials briefed on the matter. The officials said the numbers were preliminary and could change.  There were no initial signs of terrorism. (Read More)

Suspicious Trading – Did America Know Hamas Planned to Invade Israel?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Oct 19, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

It is no secret that politicians use their insider information to select stocks. A recent trade has raised eyebrows and raises the question of whether those behind the curtain knew that the Hamas attacks were coming, or worse, the whole thing was planned.

Josh Gottheimer is a Democrat Congressman from New Jersey. On September 25, Gottheimer just so happened to purchase numerous shares of Northrop Grumman Corp (NYSE: NOC) for around 425 per share. Northrop Grumman Corp also just so happens to be one of the largest military defense contractors in the world and it conducts the majority of its business with the US Department of Defense.

Hamas penetrated the Iron Dome two weeks later on October 7. The stock spiked 11% on the day of the attack and is trading a bit below 500 at the time of this writing. Lucky trade? Solid company? The trade itself doesn’t seem off until you look a bit closer. Gottheimer is also an overseeing member of the National Security Agency and Cyber Subcommittee, a branch of the Department of Defense that partners with all the three letter agencies and every branch of the military. As explained on their website, “NSA Cybersecurity prevents and eradicates threats to U.S. national security systems with a focus on the Defense Industrial Base and the improvement of U.S. weapons’ security. It also strives to promote cybersecurity education, research, and career-building.”

If this were a case of insider trading, it indicates that American intelligence agencies had been preparing for October 7. Again, no one has yet to discover how Hamas invaded what was possibly the most secure border in the world. Something does not add up here.

Voters Making a Difference – Republican DC Members Scared to Vote Against Jim Jordan for Speaker, Wall of Opposition Crumbling


Posted originally on the CTH on October 16, 2023 | Sundance 

The media and punditry are saying it’s the pressure of Jordan, but really, it’s the pressure of the voters that’s scaring the crap out of the Republicans in the House.

The block of opposition to Jim Jordan’s nomination in the House is crumbling, as their phones, emails and fax machines are being lit up by voters demanding support and threatening a removal primary against any House member who tries to stand in the way of the people.

Jordan has vowed to take his nomination to a House floor vote and force the Republican Party to take a stand. This is a solid strategy that puts any no vote against the will of the electorate.

WASHINGTON – Twenty-four hours before the full House will vote on whether to hand Jordan the gavel, the Judiciary chair and his allies have managed to chip away at a significant bloc of opposition that many in the House GOP saw as insurmountable just days ago.

That includes two lawmakers who had publicly vowed not to support Jordan: Rep. Ann Wagner (R-Mo.), who had publicly railed against Jordan’s behavior towards Majority Whip Steve Scalise, and House Armed Services Chair Mike Rogers (R-Ala.), who had also backed Scalise’s bid and has been critical of the House Freedom Caucus’s tactics in recent years.

Another holdout, Rep. Vern Buchanan (R-Fla.), posted on X Monday that he would be “offering my support on the House floor” to Jordan. Buchanan, a senior member of the Florida GOP delegation, is another significant get, given three Republicans from the Sunshine state are still holding out.

Some House Republicans also raised eyebrows at the nod from Rep. Ken Calvert (R-Calif.), a senior appropriator who has been similarly skeptical of the ultraconservatives’ demands this Congress.

“I feel real good about the momentum we have and I think we’re real close,” Jordan told reporters Monday, vowing to take the contest to the floor at noon regardless of whether he’s formally landed 217 votes. (read more)

Y’all know how I feel about Jordan in general terms, but hopefully the MAGA base and President Trump’s influence can overwhelm the right wing of the Uniparty vulture.

Darwin – Hitler – Transgender


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politically Correct Re-Posted Oct 12, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

QUESTION: Marty, it seems like this entire transgender stuff has been exploited. I agree that it was never an issue until someone pushed this in the face of everyone. Now, the UN is promoting transgender lesbians. Why would someone change their sex if they still like the opposite sex? This is becoming so confusing. If the transgenders are less than 0.5% of the population, then what is the UN spending money on this when it is probably 10% at best of this 0.5%? We have wars, and 8 to 10 million Ukrainians have fled Ukraine. However, transgender lesbians are still lesbians, which is more important than telling Zelensky to negotiate or try to resolve the Israeli-Hamas War.

You have said this is promoting an agenda to reduce population. Some suggest that this is all connected to the 19th-century European view that they were a superior race promoted by Hitler and the discrimination of races. This seems to be going over the top. Is all of this connected?

HS

REPLY: Many people have no idea about the connection between Hitler and Darwin and how the Nazis targeted the first transgenders. Darwin had a very profound impact on 19th-century thinking. Of course, there was the religious conflict of evolving from monkeys. However, this was also behind Hitler’s search for an ancient Arian Race to counter Darwin.

The idea of a superior human race existed in Europe during the late 19th century. It appears to have arisen after Charles Darwin’s 1859 publication of the Origin of Species. While many people have argued that there has never been a missing link discovered to support Darwin, they do not understand that this was ALSO the motivation behind Hitler’s obsession with a superior ancient Arian race to counter Darwin’s theory that we evolved from monkeys. It was very curious, for this ancient Arian race was promoted by people claiming to be scientists. This was also the origin of the Nazis hating Jews, and they began to view different races as inferior.

They even created human zoos as early as 1870. Darwin had set in motion this debate, and Ethnology studies emerged in Germany, taking an entirely new approach in the 1870s. They began to put humans on display, incorporating them into zoos. The scientists supported this as being educational. However, this was all about countering Darwin. These human zoos sparked many elite debates, but what emerged was the idea that Europeans had “evolved” into a superior race, and putting natives from distant lands on display in cages supported this idea.

These human zoos became the link between transgender and homosexuality. The first transgender operation was by Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld (1868 – 1935), a German physician specializing in sexology. He advocated for sexual minorities and founded the Scientific-Humanitarian Committee and the World League for Sexual Reform. This was said to have been the organization to have supported homosexual and transgender rights.

However, this concept of a mythical Arian race that existed in antiquity was a passion of Hitler, thanks to Darwin. Between May 1 and October 15, 1896, the Great Business Exhibition of Berlin occurred. It was there where this idea of an Arian race was made popular taking hold among some elites, for they created a human zoo as well where people from Germany’s colonies, such as New Guinea and Africa, were put on display for the visitors to gawk at.

The fascists targeted Hirschfeld and then the Nazis because he was Jewish but also gay. He was beaten severely in 1920, and in 1933, the Nazis sacked his organization and burned all his research and books. He fled Germany and was exiled to France, where he died in 1935.

I agree; this is all becoming so confusing it is hard to follow the logic of changing your sex to be still attracted to the opposite sex. Then there was the video of a guy who wanted to change his sex to be the first transgender to have an abortion. Nothing makes sense.

As I have said, Thailand is the sex change capital of the world. They do not demand that you can no longer define what a woman is, and mothers are now just birthing machines. In Thailand, they simply call themselves Ladyboys. They do not demand that everyone else must change pronouns and you cannot define what is a woman.

This transgender issue is turning up far more discrimination against this entire transgender agenda needlessly. It appears to be more directed at creating division than ending discrimination. It certainly has not reduced discrimination but it has increased it. Personally, I am offended to hear my mother is not a mother but some birthing machine. Now this offends the majority and that only leads to a backlash. This implies others have seized this issue for political reasons – not the gay community.
