Anthony Blinken Travels to Ukraine to Announce U.S. Taxpayers Will Provide Another $1 Billion in Military Aid, Plus $520 Million for Clean Energy Initiative


Posted originally on the CTH on September 6, 2023 | Sundance 

This is beyond ludicrous now.  Secretary of State Anthony Blinken travelled to Ukraine to promote the U.S. commitment to our proxy EU country, and their perpetual money laundering operation.

In addition to announcing another $1 Billion in military and police funding, Blinken also announced that U.S. taxpayers would provide $520 million in funds for the Ukraine Green New Deal initiative to redevelop clean energy sources.   Blackrock and Vanguard are smiling large tonight, knowing that Joe Biden and Anthony Blinken are pumping profit funds directly into their subsidiary companies who will do the work.  This is madness.

Mass Graves in Canada Were a Hoax


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Sep 5, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

”Anytime we think about unmarked mass graves, we think about a distant country where a genocide has happened. This is not a distant country,” Dictator Justin Trudeau announced. It was an emotional narrative used to condemn the people of Canada into remembering the ill will of their ancestors. A call for supporting indigenous and minority communities. Masses of unmarked graves of children found at Catholic schools in Canada could have been a reason to abandon the church and turn toward government. Countless resources went in to promoting this narrative for two years. Problem is that there were no mass graves.

The Canadian government spent billions searching for evidence of the “cultural genocide.” The Truth and Reconciliation commission estimated that between 3,000 and 6,000 children died at these religious schools, primarily Catholic. It seemed too tragic to question. They excavated the basement of Our Lady of Seven Sorrows Catholic Church as the story said at least 60 children had been discarded there. No bodies were found. Researchers claimed that ground-penetrating sonar systems showed that there were hundreds of bodies beneath the ground, but not one has been found.

Justin Trudeau set aside a $40 billion budget for First Nations child welfare in 2021 after admitting that Canada was responsible for those deaths. Memorial services were held at sites where they believed mass graves existed. Trudeau, of course, showed up for the photo opportunity.

Canada did of course treat the First Nations people horribly. But this elaborated story of the Catholic Church covering up the deaths of countless children has been a complete hoax. The government ran with the story because it supported the right narrative.

As Expected, Ukraine Removes Defense Minister After Corruption Probe – Next Up in Rotation, Another Corrupt Defense Minister


Posted originally on the CTH on September 3, 2023 | Sundance 

As we noted last week, this was very likely going to happen. Oleksiy Reznikov (pictured below left) has been removed.

A corrupt minister is caught stealing and skimming money for his/her own benefit. The corrupt minister is fired and replaced with another corrupt minister, and then the clock starts ticking until the replacement makes a mistake and gets caught doing the same thing as his predecessor.

The corrupt activity in Kyiv is identical to the corrupt activity in Washington DC, because it is created by the same corrupt process. Wash – Rinse – Repeat.

(Via Politico) – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced late Sunday that he will replace the country’s defense minister, even as Kyiv’s counteroffensive appears to be gaining ground with its troops pushing into Russian-held territory. [😂]

The departure of Oleksiy Reznikov as defense chief marks the highest-level turnover in Zelenskyy’s inner circle since the start of the war in February 2022. It comes as the Ukrainian government is stepping up efforts to deal aggressively with corruption allegations involving military officials.

In a video message Sunday night, the Ukrainian leader announced that Reznikov would be replaced as defense minister by Rustem Umerov, the head of the country’s State Property Fund.

“Reznikov has gone through more than 550 days of full-scale war,” Zelenskyy said. “I believe the ministry now needs new approaches and other formats of interaction with both the military and society as a whole.”

There have been rumblings for weeks that Rezniko’s days were numbered. His reputation took several hits earlier this year over a handful of wartime scandals in the Defense Ministry in which officials were accused of profiteering. While Reznikov was never implicated, the revelations were a black eye not only for his ministry, but for him personally.

Zelenskyy called on the country’s parliament to approve the decision as soon as possible. (read more)

Ukraine Defense Minister Likely to Be Removed, Following Corruption Probe


Posted originally on the CTH on September 2, 2023 | Sundance 

If you have watched World War Reddit, and understand the basic premise of Ukraine as a U.S. money laundering operation, then you likely understand why and how the recipient side of the $100 billion U.S. aid package is filled with graft and corruption.

Each Ukraine official who is caught using the money for their personal enrichment, is replaced by another person who engages in the same activity.  Successful anti-corruption efforts in Ukraine are futile, because everything attached to the U.S. created Ukraine government is corrupt.

A corrupt minister is caught stealing and skimming money for his/her own benefit. The corrupt minister is fired and replaced with another corrupt minister, and then the clock starts ticking until the replacement makes a mistake and gets caught doing the same thing as his predecessor.

The corrupt activity in Kyiv is identical to the corrupt activity in Washington DC, because it is created by the same corrupt process.   Wash – Rinse – Repeat.

In the latest exhibition…

[Via Zero Hedge} – […] Defense chief Oleksiy Reznikov has overseen a series of embarrassing military corruption scandals at a time Kiev is trying to tout its democratic and corruption reform credentials. He could be dismissed from the top post as early as next week and given a new role as ambassador to the United Kingdom.

But the decision is “not finalized” according to sources speaking to Kyiv Post, which names Rustem Umerov – currently head of the State Property Fund – as a likely candidate to replace Reznikov.

DM Reznikov has overseen Ukraine’s military and defense strategy since the start of the Feb. 2022 invasion, but the much-hyped counteroffensive launched at the start of the summer has been widely seen as a failure, despite tens of billions of dollars of Western aid and weaponry.

Reznikov is now front and center in an anti-graft probe, Bloomberg writes, citing local Ukrainian media:

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s anti-graft crackdown is fueling speculation that he may dismiss Ukraine’s defense minister following accusations of corruption linked to procuring military supplies.

The Ukrayinska Pravda newspaper, citing sources it didn’t name, said on Thursday Minister Oleksii Reznikov may be replaced as early as next week. The report followed accusations from anti-corruption activists and media that under his leadership the ministry has purchased food and uniforms at inflated prices. It also coincides with comments from a lawmaker that Reznikov may be shifted to the post of Kyiv’s ambassador to the UK.

Additionally, parliament’s People’s Deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak, wrote in a Thursday Telegram post that “…Rustem Umerov will be nominated for the position of Minister of Defense.” 

Kyiv Post has detailed the latest scandal as follows:

The latest scandal was exposed by Ukrainian journalist Yuriy Nikolov who, citing sources at the State Customs Service of Ukraine, reported that the Ministry of Defense had acquired 233,000 winter jackets for $20 million from a Turkish firm.

Documentation from customs regarding one shipment unveiled a startling increase in cost for a batch of 4,900 jackets en route from Turkey to Ukraine.

The price had tripled, soaring from $142,000 to $421,000 (a per-unit rise from $29 to $86). Furthermore, it was revealed that the jackets, despite being marketed as winter wear, turned out to be lightweight. (link)

American Legal Tyranny


Armstrong Economics Blog/Rule of Law Re-Posted Sep 1, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, Being a European, I have been shocked at how Trump could be charged with 91 crimes for the same thing. I understand your analogy that if someone kills a person, it is one crime. To set a multitude of murders based on the number of bullets fired would be absurd. So how can they possibly create 91 crimes out of one? American justice seems to have collapsed entirely. It is no longer the beacon of liberty it once was, and they criticize Russia and China. Out of 177 countries on the Global list of countries for human rights, the US is 112. This Trump fiasco is showing that ranking is optimistic.

Thank you for explaining this strange case.

WN

ANSWER: They have abused the “white color” crimes and pushed them to the point of total insanity, becoming the worst tyranny in all recorded history of jurisprudence. Let’s say we both cheated someone out of $1,000. It took you ten emails or phone calls to do that, but I accomplished the same crime with just one email; that is a huge difference under this tyranny. You will be charged with ten crimes of Wire GFraud, and I will be accused of just one. It is no different from charging a murderer with multiple murders because he fired more than one bullet, yet there was only one person dead.

The American legal system has become WORSE than what the American Revolution was all about. In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson listed among the complaints not charging the king’s agents for crimes against the people. Sound familiar with exonerating police based on killing someone by mistake? We have no right to consent to taxes; if we refuse to pay, we go to prison.

I was held in civil contempt and DENIED a trial by jury on the claim (1) it was civil and not criminal, and (2) I had no constitutional rights because corporations do not. They created a legal fiction that I was imprisoned as only a corporate officer, citing US v Braswell, 487 U.S. 99 (1988). However, if a company wants to donate to a politician, suddenly, they have a First Amendment right to do so. They can take away all your human rights on legal fiction and pretend this is justice for all and innocent until proven guilty. There is no rule of law left in the United States. Trump’s case is showing the injustice in America to the entire world. The legal system of the United States no longer functions ethically no less morally.

It took years for me to get to the Supreme Court. When the Supreme Court ordered the government to explain what was going on and they could not, they suddenly released me and told the Supreme Court the case was moot for the contempt ended. That is how they get out of things. When you finally get your day in court, they pretend it never happened.

Tyranny of Interpreting Words


Armstrong Economics Blog/Rule of Law Re-Posted Sep 1, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT: I just read your analysis of Double Jeopardy. It was brilliant. I have never seen someone analyze it the way you have done. You have captured the true spirit of what it honestly meant.

God Help Us.

KR

REPLY: This is the entire problem a single word can be reinterpreted to inflict tyranny. In Double Jeopardy, they focus on “offense” rather than “jeopardy” to effectively nullify any real protection of the prohibition. In 1975, when gold was to be legalized, I was asked by the New Jersey Senate to write the law that gold would not be subject to sales tax. I wrote gold was not subject to sales tax unless it was for “use” as in jewelry or dentistry etc. In 1980, I learned the hard way about Dual Sovereignty and how corrupt the legal system truly was.

The IRS walked in and declared me to be a bank, and I was supposed to report every transaction of $10,000 or more buying or selling. The State of New Jersey walked in and said I was a merchant. They said I was supposed to be collecting sales tax. I said no; I wrote the law for the State. I challenged them in a State Court and lost. They claimed the word “use” included investment use, and thus it was taxable. I was not allowed to testify in my case because they argued that whatever the Senate had asked me to write, I may have misunderstood. Senator Foran, who asked me to write the law, was allowed to testify only as an interested person and not as a Senator. The entire purpose was that gold would be traded for investment, and I was told they did not want it taxed the same as stocks. That is why I retired. I did not want to report on every transaction.

I learned that the interpretation of a single word will be twisted, so the government ALWAYS wins. This is why they are calling the January 6th protest an “insurrection” so they can use the 14th Amendment to bar Trump from ever being President. Yet over 1,000 people who have been charged for just being there were NEVER charged with “insurrection” because it did not meet the legal definition. The Judges are there to to inflict tyranny and pretend they are honest – right!

Shakespeare’s famous line, “the first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers,” meant the king’s prosecutors since private citizens were not allowed to have a lawyer. We are back where we were during the time of Henry VI. The prosecutors confiscated property back then and threw families out on the street. They use Civil Asset Forfeiture today to inflict the same tyranny under the ancient theory that assets violated the law and they need not prove you committed a crime – the ultimate tyranny.

South Korea Handles Illegal Migrant Problem


Armstrong Economics Blog/International News Re-Posted Aug 30, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Imagine living in a country where the leaders were concerned about national security? South Korea slammed the breaks on illegal immigration in and forced around 11,000 undocumented illegal immigrants to leave the country. President Yoon Suk Yeol has said that his administration will continue taking “strict measures” to ensure national security.

The 11,000 expulsions happened between June 12 and July 31 amid a 50-day crackdown collaboration between the Korean Coast Guard, the National Police Agency, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the Ministry of Employment and Labor, and Ministry of Justice. Of the 11,000, 5,282 people were deported, while another 5,476 voluntarily left to avoid further repercussions. The illegal migrants that were forcibly deported may face entry bans and fines depending on how long they remained in South Korea illegally. Additionally, 1,290 employers were fined for illegally hiring undocumented migrants.

“Moving forward as well, we will strive to create a safe society by taking strict measures not only against foreigners who stay here illegally, but also foreigners who threaten Korean citizens’ safety, such as with drugs, or who promote residing here illegally, by helping others find illegal employment,” Justice Minister Han Dong-hoon said in a statement.

Around 37,000 illegal migrants were expelled from South Korea within the first half of 2023. Justice Minister Han implemented a five-year strategy to cut down the illegal population from around 410,000 to 200,000. The Justice Ministry believes 411,000 migrants snuck into the country in 2022 alone and they are taking the issue extremely seriously.

There are methods to legally enter a country, and those methods were respected and understood by everyone up until a few years ago. Now, people feel as if they can enter any country and claim asylum for a free meal ticket. Nations like the USA that have deliberately erased the borders have created a serious national security issue and cities are now attempting to handle the economic ramifications of the migrant crisis. There are solutions if those in power see large-scale invasions as a problem to solve.

Hunting the Desperate for Data


Armstrong Economics Blog/Cryptocurrency Re-Posted Aug 29, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

People are lining up to peer into a reflective orb to scan their eyes scanned in exchange for crypto – welcome to 2023. Sam Altman, Alex Blania and Max Novendstern founded Worldcoin “with the ambition of creating a new identity and financial network owned by everyone,” as per their introduction email. “Worldcoin consists of a privacy-preserving digital identity (World ID) and, where laws allow, a digital currency (WLD) received simply for being human. We hope that, where the rules are less clear, such as in the US, steps will be taken so more people can benefit from both.” Over 2.25 million people have provided their biometric data to gain access to the blockchain and the company is now worth around $3 billion.

The founders first targeted poor areas of Africa where they offered desperate people $60 worth of crypto for their biometric data. CNBC reported that they hired hundreds of “Runners” who acted as sales people to recruit new clients to harvest their data. The people worked on commission only and targeted people on the streets, schools, shopping centers, and anywhere they could find vulnerable people willing to give away their personal information. In Kenya, for example, there were reports of thousands of people lining up to join the platform.

The aim is to harvest the data of every individual globally and then connect that data to a decentralized ID linked to the blockchain. They call the need for biometric data proof-of-personhood “lets you prove you are a unique and real person while remaining anonymous.” I for one do not need a computer to prove to me that I am a real human being. Absolute nonsense.

Sam Altman is an intelligent man. He helped develop ChatGPT and OpenAI. Now he claims this concoction can prove that living people are not AI robots. World ID is now active in 34 countries with over 1,500 orbs available. They claim the data is encrypted but almost anything can be hacked or seized by government. In fact, Worldcoin has already been hacked by people who sold the data on the dark web.

Governments are becoming suspicious or perhaps jealous of that valuable data. The UK, France, Argentina, and Germany are investigating the company and Kenyan authorities raided their offices in Nairobi. The powers that be will create a digital passport linking every human to a centralized database. They likely will not allow a private firm to maintain such a database, for our safety of course.

Trilateral Commission: 2023 is Year 1 of New World Order


Armstrong Economics Blog/Great Reset Re-Posted Aug 28, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

The Trilateral Commission is a private group of elites formed in 1973 by David Rockefeller to discuss control of Europe, North America, and the Asia-Pacific region. Membership is invitation only and their meetings are shrouded in secrecy. Takeshi Niinami, Meghan O’Sullivan, and Axel Weber are the three chairs of the organization. Although the members of this organization are not household names, they are very powerful decision-makers – the elite appointed by the dollar.

In leaked notes from a conference held earlier in the year, one speaker has declared that 2023 is year 1 of the New World Order. “Three decades of globalization — defined as integrated, free-market based and deflationary — has been replaced by what will be a multidecade period of globalization defined as fragmented, not-free-market-based but industrial-policy based and structurally inflationary. This year, 2023, is Year One of this new global order.”

This group is also working in secrecy to alter the world as we know it. They are another version of the World Economic Forum in every way possible. They developed a Task Force on Global Capitalism in Transition to transition the modern world away from capitalism. As stated on their website: “There are growing concerns about whether market-based economies will be able to address three major challenges. First, climate change. Second, the disruptions triggered by the digital revolution. Third, rising inequalities.”

And 2023 is the first year of this New World Order, as we have seen all the globalists embedded in politics implement policies to achieve these goals. Remember, all of the rules they want to implement are for you and me – not them. “Moving toward a more sustainable and inclusive capitalism is a defining challenge of our age. The task force hopes its work stimulates discussion, debate, and, ultimately, decision,” the website also states. “Inclusive capitalism” is an oxymoron. Capitalism by definition is “an economic and political system in which a country’s trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit.” It is not meant to be a fair and equitable system. Everyone has an opportunity to earn in this for-profit system that demands hard work over welfare.

The Trilateral Commission is something I will discuss more as many have not heard of the organization. They are so confident that their ideals have been embedded in our society that this is supposedly year 1. The elitists will fail miserably, but chaotic times are ahead. It is no longer a conspiracy that there is a global cabal of elitists who are actively changing society as a whole.
