Participating in Scam ElectionsJames Quotes the Original Etienne de la Boetie who seemed to be describing Donald Trump when describing the tyrants of his time…by James CorbettWelcome back to #SolutionsWatch, that regular weekly deprogram where we consider and critically examine various ideas for changing your life and changing the world for the better. Say, remember back in 2015, remember my presentation on how to free your tax cattle? More specifically, do you remember how I concluded that presentation?“Mrs. President, I have some news for you. Your successor, was not selected as we intended. Of course, the voting machines did show that he won by 63%, but there’s a slight hitch.No one voted. Not one single person showed up to the voting booths. We still think we can pass that one off, but there’s more. Tax Day came and went. Not a single person filed. We’ve passed as many arbitrary laws that we could think of to make people internalize their own enslavement. but they’ve stopped wearing their party hats to breakfast. They’re driving blue cars in cities with the letter C in their name on Tuesdays, and many, many other flagrant and wanton violations of our edicts. It looks like you’ve lost, Mrs. President. We? We? Oh, I’m sorry. No, that’s not the deal. You’re the puppet. You’re going to be slaughtered. As for me and my friends, well, I’ve decided to join the winning team. I am no longer going to be your slave master or anyone else’s. Peace, love, energy. “I’m out. Ah, right, yes, that’s how it ended. That entirely fictional scenario about a fictional future in which people decide not to vote at all, thus immediately delegitimizing the entire government and the ruling class in general. What pie-in-the-sky thinking is that, James?That could never happen in real… Oh, well, actually, for those of you who aren’t following the twists and turns of Irish presidential politics, something just happened in Ireland just a few weeks ago that’s probably worthy of our attention.Continue reading…Videos of the WeekNew Documentary Trailer – Duty to Disobey – The Illegality of Covid “Vaccines”The organized crime “government” tricked and forced the military into crippling “vaccines” that are only now beginning to show the medium and long term effects.

Right now this market is dominated by a monopoly provider. In the absence of a monopoly provider, there’s no reason to think that private companies wouldn’t be able to provide the same service, at lower prices, with more efficiency and without the abuses of the monopoly police.Continue readingThe REAL Political Spectrum… Around the World – THIS WEEK: EstoniaI am adding a new recurring feature to Five Meme Friday: The REAL Political Spectrum… Around the World!

The core accusation was that the World Health Organization (WHO), an entity heavily funded by Gates, launched a tetanus eradication campaign in Kenya between 2014 and 2015. However, Kenyan doctors and researchers discovered that the vaccine used was radically different. It was reportedly a “fertility-regulating vaccine” that combined the tetanus toxoid with the hormone Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG), essential for sustaining pregnancy. The substance allegedly causes women to produce antibodies that attack the HCG hormone, effectively resulting in sterilization.The world is waking up to global “philanthropy” that often hides a population control agenda.Continue readingNEW STUDY: Infant Vaccine Intensity Strongly Predicts Autism Rates Worldwideby Nicolas Hulscher, MPHA new cross-national study from Italy’s National Research Council, spanning multiple developed countries across three continents, has identified a remarkably strong association between early-life vaccine intensity and autism prevalence. The number of vaccine types and doses administered before 12 months showed exceptionally high correlations with national autism rates.A 1% increase in vaccine types before age one corresponded to a 0.47% increase in autism prevalence.The correlation is enormous — r = 0.87 for vaccine types and r = 0.79 for vaccine doses. In regression models, vaccine intensity alone explained 81% of the variance in autism prevalence across nations.This is not an isolated signal. It directly corroborates earlier U.S. state-level data from DeLong (2011) — and aligns with the 107 positive-association studies catalogued in the McCullough Foundation’s Landmark Autism Report.Continue readingGovernment Intervention, Not BlackRock, Is To Blame For The Housing Crisisby Mises Wire•Diyar KasymovIs building more homes not enough? Recently, there have been more and more Gen-Z memes about boomers selling their overvalued houses to BlackRock instead of to young couples, and then the corporation rents the house to the couple for 2x the price. The housing crisis is not a false alarm. The median rent price went up 25 percent in just 6 years. This is a serious economic problem for America.Many young people are already being radicalized by this, as they are willing to elect socialist Zohran Mamdani—who called for abolition of private property once—as the mayor of New York City. But what can we do? Are rent controls now relevant, as globalization and financialization changed the rules of the game? Can European-style social-democrats like Mamdani, Bernie, and AOC control the markets elegantly enough to maximize supply?Continue readingBREAKING STUDY: Anomalous Amyloid Microclots Found in 100% of the COVID-19 Vaccinatedby Nicolas Hulscher, MPHA new peer-reviewed study has quietly revealed one of the most consequential biological findings of the pandemic era — and the authors never acknowledge it: Every single vaccinated participant in the study had fibrinolysis-resistant, ThT-positive amyloid microclots circulating in their blood.Hidden in the supplementary tables is a demographic and biochemical pattern that completely reframes the paper:94% of all participants were vaccinated.100% of these vaccinated individuals had amyloid microclots — including every “healthy control.”The condition labeled “Long COVID” occurred almost entirely in a heavily vaccinated population, without any laboratory confirmation of prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. In reality, the study is observing Long VACCINE pathology, not Long COVID.Continue readingJeffrey Epstein Pursued Swiss Rothschild Bank to Finance Israeli Cyberweapons Empireby Ryan Grim and Murtaza HussainWith an avalanche of new documents released by the House Oversight Committee, and looming legislation mandating further disclosures, the press has renewed its relentless coverage of the life and times of Jeffrey Epstein. Yet, with some notable exceptions, a major part of his life’s work has remained outside the media’s gaze, his relationship with the state of Israel and his prominent role in helping advance the Israeli cyberweapons industry. And so our series continues.If you can support this work, please make a one-time or recurring contribution here or upgrade to a paid subscription.On July 31, 2019, just eleven days before Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in a Manhattan jail cell, his connection to the Rothschild banking dynasty became the subject of major public controversy.Continue readingICE Agents Raid a Church With No Explanationby Edith OlmstedThe arrival of masked federal agents at a church in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Saturday sent some worshippers fleeing into the woods while children sobbed inside, witnesses told The Charlotte Observer.The ICE agents, who mobbed a group of church members doing yard work, did not ask any questions or make any attempt to identify themselves before arresting one man. The Observer did not report the name of the church.The church’s pastor, who told The Observer he did not want to identify himself, said that agents threatened to arrest other church members, and were physically aggressive. “Right now, everybody is scared. Everybody,” he said. “One of these guys with immigration, he say he was going to arrest one of the other guys in the church. He pushed him.”Fifteen-year-old Miguel Vazquez was one of the people who took off running when federal agents arrived. “I thought, ‘Wait, why am I running? I’m a citizen,’” Vazquez said.Continue readingGoogle launches Gemini 3 with new coding app and record benchmark scoresby Russell BrandomOn Tuesday, Google released Gemini 3, its latest and most advanced foundation model, which is now immediately available through the Gemini app and AI search interface.Coming just seven months after the Gemini 2.5 release, the new model is Google’s most capable LLM yet, and an immediate contender for the most capable AI tool on the market. The release also comes less than a week after OpenAI released GPT 5.1, and a mere two months after Anthropic released Sonnet 4.5 — a reminder of the blistering pace of frontier model development.A more research-intensive version of the model, called Gemini 3 Deepthink, will also be made available to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the coming weeks, once it passes further rounds of safety testing.“With Gemini 3, we’re seeing this massive jump in reasoning,” said Tulsee Doshi, Google’s head of product for the Gemini model. “It’s responding with a level of depth and nuance that we haven’t seen before.”Continue readingThe Hidden Price Tag on Holiday Gifts: Who Really Pays for Cash Back Rewards?by The Solari Report and Breeauna SagdalEvery holiday season, millions of Americans chase 5% cash back on toys, electronics, and groceries. What few realize is that credit card “rewards” aren’t free—they’re baked into the price of everything on the shelf, driving up costs for everyone.The cash back scheme increases the costs of consumer goods, food, fuel, and services for everyone. Cash and debit users—often lower-income families—get nothing back but still pay the markup.Federal Reserve research reveals that cash back rewards are funded almost entirely by interchange (“swipe”) fees—hidden charges to merchants that can range from 1.1% to 3.2%. A portion of the fee goes to card companies such as Visa and Mastercard, and the rest goes to the cardholder’s issuing bank—for example, Chase—on every credit card transaction.Continue readingGoogle Censored Vaccine Info Long Before COVID — Could It Have Anything to Do With Parent Company Alphabet’s Deep Pharma Ties?This article was originally published by The Defender — Children’s Health Defense’s News & Views Website.This article was originally published by The Defender — to the original piece from The Defender website.by Jeremy R. Hammond, Ph.D., The DefenderThroughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Big Tech companies colluded with the government to silence dissent and criticisms of the lockdowns and a coercive mass vaccination campaign by censoring truthful information that did not align with the political agenda.The Biden administration’s role in the censorship regime was the subject of a May 2024 congressional report titled “The Censorship-Industrial Complex.”Three months after that report was released, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg admitted in a letter to Congress that Facebook had censored factual information under pressure from the White House.Continue readingThe Psychology of Survival: “He Who Hesitates is Lost”by Daisy LutherPreparedness isn’t just about the supplies you stockpile and the skills you learn. It’s about psychology, too. And an important step toward survival is understanding the psychology behind hesitation.In a worst-case scenario, hesitation kills.He who hesitates is lost. Swift and resolute action leads to success. Self-doubt is a prelude to disaster.~Joseph AddisonThe human brain is configured in a way that it is in our very nature to deny that something outside our normal paradigm has occurred. This is called cognitive dissonance.“Cognitive dissonance is the feeling of discomfort when simultaneously holding two or more conflicting cognitions: ideas, beliefs, values or emotional reactions…Dissonance is aroused when people are confronted with information that is inconsistent with their beliefs. If the dissonance is not reduced by changing one’s belief, the dissonance can result in restoring consonance through misperception, rejection or refutation of the information, seeking support from others who share the beliefs, and attempting to persuade others.” (source)Continue readingCan weed help you drink less? Scientists study how well ‘California sober’ worksBy Will StoneCould smoking pot lead people to drink less alcohol?In an elaborate and provocative experiment, scientists doled out joints and free drinks to see whether this idea — sometimes described as “California sober” — survived scientific scrutiny.The new research offers some of the strongest data yet suggesting that smoking weed does, at least in the short term, curb how much people drink.The findings were published in the American Journal of Psychiatry on Wednesday — and are sure to raise questions about the merits of swapping one of these substances for another, especially given growing concern in the public health field about the popularity of cannabis.And the researchers are cautious about making any recommendations based on their findings at this point.“We’re not ready to tell people seeking treatment for alcohol, go ahead and substitute cannabis, and it will work out for you,” says Jane Metrik, a professor of behavioral and social science at Brown University who led the study.Continue readingBorder Patrol is monitoring US drivers and detaining those with ‘suspicious’ travel patternsby Byron Tau And Garance BurkeThe U.S. Border Patrol is monitoring millions of American drivers nationwide in a secretive program to identify and detain people whose travel patterns it deems suspicious, The Associated Press has found.The predictive intelligence program has resulted in people being stopped, searched and in some cases arrested. A network of cameras scans and records vehicle license plate information, and an algorithm flags vehicles deemed suspicious based on where they came from, where they were going and which route they took. Federal agents in turn may then flag local law enforcement.Suddenly, drivers find themselves pulled over — often for reasons cited such as speeding, failure to signal, the wrong window tint or even a dangling air freshener blocking the view. They are then aggressively questioned and searched, with no inkling that the roads they drove put them on law enforcement’s radar.Continue readingElon Musk’s Grok Goes Haywire, Boasts About Billionaire’s Pee-Drinking Skills and ‘Blowjob Prowess’by Charlie NashElon Musk’s AI assistant Grok boasted on Thursday that the billionaire had the “potential to drink piss better than any human in history,” among other absurd claims championing its creator.After the AI assistant praised Musk’s physique and claimed he ranked “among the top 10 minds in history, rivaling polymaths like da Vinci or Newton,” social media users quickly discovered that Grok was programmed to say positive things about Musk, no matter the topic.But according to 404 Media, in a series of deleted X posts, Grok boasted that Musk had the “potential to drink piss better than any human in history,” that he was “the ultimate throat goat” whose “blowjob prowess edges out Trump’s,” and that he should have won a 2016 porn industry award instead of porn star Riley Reid.Grok also claimed Musk was more fit than LeBron James.Continue readingBOMBSHELL: The CDC Has Updated Its “Autism and Vaccines” Pageby Aaron SiriThe new “Autism and Vaccines” page starts telling the truth, including:“The claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.”“Studies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities.”“Scientific studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines contribute to the development of autism. However, this statement has historically been disseminated by the CDC and other federal health agencies within HHS to prevent vaccine hesitancy.”Meaning, the CDC has simply been lying to you. The CDC’s website then continues its mea culpa stating:“[M]ultiple reports from HHS and the National Academy of Sciences …. have consistently concluded that there are still no studies that support the specific claim that the infant vaccines, DTaP, HepB, Hib, IPV, and PCV, do not cause autism and hence the CDC was in violation of the DQA [Data Quality Act] when it claimed, ‘vaccines do not cause autism.’ CDC is now correcting the statement, and HHS is providing appropriate funding and support for studies related to infant vaccines and autism.”Continue readingAlgorithmic Pricing and the American Social Credit Scoreby Greg ReeseA quote commonly attributed to Benito Mussolini, “Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power,” clearly explains the form of today’s emerging fascist state in America. Last week we reported how the Digital ID will be deployed by private companies and the customer’s consent:“The government doesn’t need to mandate biometric ID, which would most likely be considered a violation of American rights, and so it outsources the mandate to private companies, who are legally required to get consent, while the government is free to collect and utilize this data under legal immunity. Just like the COVID era, you will be free to give consent, but if you choose not to, you will have to leave the Reservation and find a way to fend for yourself.”Continue readingGuys Going Galt: “How They Broke The Boys”by Selwyn DukeIt was in 2005 that I wrote about the “dehumanizing of men.” A half-decade earlier, the book The War Against Boys by Christina Hoff Sommers was published. Yet the anti-male spirit of the age marched on, and now the consequences are painfully apparent. In fact and in a sense, young men today are going a sort of sex-specific Galt.Writing about this at Evie magazine Tuesday is one Brittany Hugoboom in an article titled “How They Broke The Boys.” Hugoboom points out that men are, in a sense, going MGTOW (Men Going Their Own Way). For example, and as studies have shown, men are much less likely today to approach women romantically. In fact, the younger-generation dating scene is a “wasteland.” As Hugoboom relates, “‘All girls are hoes,’ a 21-year-old boy tells me, blankly.” She mentions, too, that there are gorgeous 20-something women who’ve never been asked to dinner.Continue readingA Top-10 Prepping List, Multi-Tool Not Included – Part 5, by St. FunogasBy SurvivalBlog ContributorContinued from Part 4. This concludes the article.See Part 3See Part 2See Part 1It’s hard to believe how many top-10 lists mention ferro rods, manual can openers, plant-identification books, and the ever-present multi-tool without ever mentioning clothes or washing equipment. Clothes last for quite a while if we’re sitting in an office all day but they won’t lost long when manual labor becomes a daily routine.Since we’ll be wearing them at some future point anyway, it’s a good idea to be stocking up on clothes for all of the inflation-fighting reasons already mentioned. At the same time, we’ll be prepping for TEOTWAWKI if it ever materializes. Like many other prepping acquisitions, a slower approach over time may work best for clothes.Shoes and work boots, even the most expensive ones, have a limited lifetime. It’s one thing to be walking around the post-SHTF homestead in thread-bare clothes covered with patches, but a whole different situation walking around in worn-out shoes and boots. On my homestead working without adequate footwear to protect against stepping on nails and sharp objects, and steel toes to protect against foot injuries while making firewood, would be difficult and dangerous. Since I’ll be wearing them at some future point anyway, I’ve started stocking up on boots when they go on the annual post-Christmas 20% off sale at my local farm store. Footwear will last longer if we have two or more pairs we can alternate every day, allowing them to dry out more fully between wearings.Continue readingCold Harbor: Eugenics, Epstein and Big Techby Max JonesWithin the trove of the notorious Jeffrey Epstein’s emails recently acquired by Bloomberg, the late pedophile and ruling class socialite proposed to fund an interesting program –– Harvard’s Personal Genome Project (PGP). Epstein’s reason for doing so? To find out if “beauty resides in DNA.”This anecdote, along with a few others in Bloomberg’s first exposé into the cache of emails, shed light on a lesser known aspect of the mysterious Jeffrey Epstein: his fascination with transhumanism, or neo-eugenics. While eugenics has traditionally referred to the study of how to best arrange human reproduction to increase the rate of “desirable” traits within a population, transhumanism seeks a somewhat different approach to making more of us “desirables.”Transhumanism relies on technology to “enhance” our genetic outcomes and phenotypic inevitabilities. For example, author David Galton, a member of the Eugenics Society, has celebrated technological advancements that have enabled parents to artificially select which genes their child receives in order to create “designer babies.” Academics such as Nicholas Agar have defended this practice, calling it “liberal eugenics.”Continue readingThe Technocratic Dark State: Dr David A.

It should have been blindingly obvious that the source of wars, famine, genocide, forced labour, forced conscription, psychological warfare, and systemic mass rape that these people endured were not due to a specific brand of centralised government, but the very existence of centralised government itself.Why?Because war and tyranny are inalienable, detachable characteristics of the state. It needs these to stay relevant and thus to survive.In just a century, Germans lived through feudalism, monarchy, fascism, communism, and the scam of democracy with its various parasitical manifestations, such as the Weimar Republic and EU neo-imperialism. They’ve seen the full spectrum of the state’s rebranding and reconstruction, with minor flavour changes just to provide a false hope that “this time it’ll be different”, but it never is.Continue readingThose who withdrewby Jim Davidson“If voting were going to change anything, they would make it illegal.” ~ Emma GoldmanI’ve mentioned it before quite a bit. I don’t vote. There are a great many reasons why not.The last time I voted in a presidential election was 1988. I voted for the Libertarian party candidate because I could not bring myself to vote for the unspeakably evil George Herbert Walker Bush, who was in Dallas 61 years ago making sure of the murder of John F. Kennedy. The Libertarians nominated Ron Paul that year, and he is the last nominee of that party that seemed to represent my views on a number of topics.A fellow named Marcus Aurelius once wrote that the opinion of ten thousand men is of no value if none of them know anything about the topic. You should probably think about that idea longer than you will.Continue readingWith the end of the penny, is the clock ticking for the nickel?by Chris Isidore, CNNThe American penny is history. The nickel might be next.The last pennies were pressed at the US Mint in Philadelphia on Wednesday, a victim of production costs higher than their worth coupled with limited usefulness. While the penny remains legal tender, banks and merchants are already reporting shortages.But the factors that prompted the government to stop making pennies are even truer for the nickel. Pennies cost nearly 5 cents to make – 4 cents more than they’re worth. The nickel’s net loss is nearly 9 cents per coin.Treasurer of the United States Brandon Beach holds the last penny stamped at the US Mint on November 12 in Philadelphia. – Matthew Hatcher/Getty ImagesNickels are 75% copper and 25% nickel, while pennies — despite their reputation as a copper coin — are copper-plated zinc, meaning they are 97.5% zinc and only 2.5% copper.Continue readingICE is building a social media panopticonby Emma RothAs Immigration and Customs Enforcement carries out raids across the country, the agency is working rapidly to expand an online surveillance system that could potentially track millions of users on the web. Federal records uncovered by The Lever reveal that ICE is paying $5.7 million to use an AI-powered social media monitoring platform called Zignal Labs, something Will Owen, the communications director at the Surveillance Technology Oversight Project (STOP), calls an “assault” on democracy and free speech.The “real-time intelligence” platform is capable of ingesting and analyzing vast amounts of publicly available data, like social media posts, according to its website. In a pamphlet shared by The Lever, Zignal Labs says it uses machine learning, computer vision, and optical character recognition to analyze more than 8 billion posts per day in over 100 languages. This allows it to process and sort data into “curated detection feeds” that ICE could use to flag individuals for deportation.Continue readingHomeschool Enrollment Hits New National Record Ahead of 2026 Electionsby Liberty Conservative NewsHomeschooling in America has officially crossed another historic threshold—one that education insiders say could reshape policy battles in the 2026 midterms and far beyond.According to newly released state-level filings and national survey estimates, homeschool enrollment has now surged past its highest level on record, marking a dramatic acceleration of a trend that began during COVID and never slowed down. What once looked like a temporary shift has now become a generational realignment.And the political establishment—especially teachers’ unions and state education bureaucracies—is sounding the alarm.Parents aren’t leaving the public-school system because of a single issue. They’re leaving because of a culture inside that system—one that many say has grown openly hostile to parental involvement and traditional values.Continue readingThis App Lets ICE Track Vehicles and Owners Across the Countryby Joseph CoxImmigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently invited staff to demos of an app that lets officers instantly scan a license plate, adding it to a database of billions of records that shows where else that vehicle has been spotted around the country, according to internal agency material viewed by 404 Media. That data can then be combined with other information such as driver license data, credit header data, marriage records, vehicle ownership, and voter registrations, the material shows.The capability is powered by both Motorola Solutions and Thomson Reuters, the massive data broker and media conglomerate, which besides running the Reuters news service, also sells masses of personal data to private industry and government agencies. The material notes that the capabilities allow for predicting where a car may travel in the future, and also can collect face scans for facial recognition.Continue readingThe Global Zionist Organ Trafficking Conspiracyby Kit KlarenbergAll my investigations are free to read, thanks to the enormous generosity of my readers. Independent journalism nonetheless requires investment, so if you value this article or any others, please consider sharing, or even becoming a paid subscriber. Your support is always gratefully received, and will never be forgotten. To buy me a coffee or two, please click this link.In early October, Israeli-Ukrainian Boris Wolfman was arrested in Russia. He is charged with masterminding a criminal organ trafficking scheme. His capture, wholly ignored by the Western media, raises the prospect that at long last, some justice will be served in a number of major organ trafficking scandals, dating back many years. Wolfman’s apprehension also highlights Tel Aviv’s little-scrutinised role as the world’s centre of illegal organ harvesting and trafficking. Grimly, the Gaza genocide may have greatly facilitated this perverse commerce.Continue readingThe Top 7 Reasons Why You Need a Second Passport Todayby Nick GiambrunoBefore World War I, you didn’t need a passport to travel internationally.It was a self-evident truth that a sovereign individual could travel anywhere he wanted without asking for anyone’s permission.Unfortunately, that’s not how travel works today.Your so-called freedom of movement depends on getting multiple governments’ blessings.You need to get a passport from your home government—possibly one that contains your immutable biometric information—and a visa from the government of your destination country and further visas from the governments of any country you transit to get there.In addition to passports and visas, governments can impose ridiculous and invasive medical conditions to enter their territories, as the Covid mass psychosis proved.Instead of an inalienable right, governments treat travel as a special privilege they grant the plebs that can be taken away if they misbehave—much like how an adult treats a child’s request to go to a friend’s house.Continue readingWhy Have Vaccines Become a Religion?by A Midwestern DoctorAs more and more people are awakening to the dangers of vaccines, they are gradually discovering a problem vaccine safety advocates have had to deal with for decades—talking to vaccine zealots is like speaking to a brick wall and regardless of the evidence you put forward, you can’t reach them (sometimes seeming as though you are speaking to a religious fanatic who is unwilling to even consider the “blasphemy you are spewing forth”).For example, in 2009 after nephrologist Dr. Suzanne Humphries noticed patients (particularly hospitalized ones) kept on developing kidney failure after flu shots, she experienced significant pushback from trying to delay vaccinating until discharge:In the past when I was consulted on kidney failure cases and said, “Oh that was the statin/antibiotic/diuretic that did that!” instantly the drug would be stopped—no questions asked. Now, however, a new standard was applied to vaccines.

The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS, dubbed the “spaceship” that has captivated scientists across the globe, is preparing for its closest encounter with Earth next month.While some argue it’s a comet hurtling through the Solar System at 130,000mph, Professor Avi Loeb has consistently suggested it could be an alien “mothership”.On his blog, Loeb has now identified “12 anomalies” about the “spaceship”“ and exactly why we should be worried about the UFO supposedly hurtling towards us. The list below is, as Loeb argues, reasons why the UFO is perhaps not a “familiar comet”, as NASA has previously insisted.Loeb highlights 3I/ATLAS’s “retrograde trajectory” which is aligned to within five degrees with the ecliptic plane of planets around the sun.Continue reading“You Can’t Handle the Truth”: UK Health Watchdog Reportedly Refuses to Release Data on Vaccine Deathsby Jonathan TurleyThe United Kingdom’s public health service is reportedly refusing to release data on the potential relationship between the COVID vaccine and excess deaths. The reason? It would upset people to know the truth. The question is whether British citizens have become so passive and yielding that they will support their government, keeping them from learning the facts about vaccines and allowing them to reach their own conclusions.The UK has long embraced speech controls and censorship to protect citizens from unacceptable views or what one criminal defendant was told were “toxic ideologies.”Social media companies assisted governments in censoring opposing scientific views during the pandemic, including those regarding the potential dangers of the vaccines.Over the years, dissenting faculty members have been forced out of scientific and academic organizations for challenging preferred conclusions on subjects ranging from transgender transitions to COVID-19 protections to climate change. Some were barred from speaking at universities or blacklisted for their opposing views.Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsSan Diego Counterforce Alliance – Freedom Christmas Party – Saturday, December 13th – Green Dragon Inn 5:30 PM PST – 6115 Paseo Del Norte, Carlsbad, CA 92011 – john_s_email(at)yahoo.com to RSVP or get infoThe People’s Reset – Morelia, Mexico – Jan 28th-Feb 1st 2026Principled Business Summit- Prospera, Roatán, Honduras, February 5–9, 2026MONEROTOPIA 2026-Roma, Mexico City, February 12TH-15TH 2026Entrepreneurship Beyond Politics: Mises Circle in Oklahoma City – Feb 21st, OKC, OKFreedom Under Natural Law Conference – February 21st & 22nd 2026, On-lineMises Institute Libertarian Scholars Conference – March 19, 2026, at our Auburn, ALAustrian Economic Research Conference 2026 – March 19-21, 2026, Auburn, ALRothbard University-May 14-16, 2026, Auburn, ALLibertarian Scholars Conference 2026- March 19, 2026 – March 19, 2026 – Auburn, Alabama.Free Cities Foundation Conference – September 3–6, 2026 – Prospera, Roatan, HondurasEvent Name: Principled Business SummitLocation: Roatán, HondurasDate: February 5–9, 2026Join a 3-day immersive experience in the world’s only startup special economic zone, built on legal autonomy and designed for visionary builders.Memes BonanzaTruth Music of the WeekNew York, New York – Commietown – The Musical (Parody)libertarian Intentional Community RoundupEtienne Note: We have rebranded our Free State Project Corner section in Five Meme Friday to: libertarian Intentional Community Roundup to cover other projects including Prospera (Honduras), The Free State Project (New Hampshire), Liberstad (Norway), Montelibero (Montenegro), Los Propietarios, (Argentina), Liberland (Croatia/Serbia border), Network States in general and Sea Steading (The Oceans).

PLUS…. 80 Canadian MDs Vaxxed & Dead…. Dear Subscribers,I am slamming and jamming on our upcoming book: Voluntaryism – How the Only “ISM” Fair for Everyone Leads to Harmony, Prosperity, and Good Karma for All! The goal is create the most comprehensive, easiest-to-read guide to how the free market can deliver everything the organized crime monopoly “government” provides but better, faster and cheaper without the waste, fraud, abuse and extortion. After all… If people understood they could get everything they want from the free market AND be wealthier with more harmony, why wouldn’t they give up “The Most Dangerous Superstition?”This week I break down how the free market would deal with Physical Protection, Policing & Crime in the absence of organized crime “government.” There are a few other sample chapters in the archive including: Without “Government” What Would We Do About Healthcare? AND Assassination Markets to Private Military Defense – Protecting the Country in a Future without “Government”We are raising the final $17,835 $17,634 needed to complete and publish the project.

Right now this market is dominated by a monopoly provider. In the absence of a monopoly provider, there’s no reason to think that private companies wouldn’t be able to provide the same service, at lower prices, with more efficiency and without the abuses of the monopoly police.Keep Reading…Videos of the WeekBritish Journalist Douglas Murray EXPOSED as Israeli Asset by LowkeyEtienne Note: The #1 weapon is control of perception.

Almost two-and-a-half decades on, the media appears to have lost all interest in that fateful, world-changing day. This is despite the April 2023 release of a bombshell court filing by the Office of Military Commissions, which concluded at least two of the alleged hijackers were CIA assets, having been recruited “via a liaison relationship” with Saudi intelligence. The same document offers illuminating insight into how the 9/11 Commission buried this, among other inconvenient truths.Continue readingBlockbuster: The Blaze Names Capitol Police Officer/ CIA Agent as a 94% Match for Jan. 6 Pipe BomberEtienne Note: This article also appears in “Government”, Media and Academia Criminality Exposed, A digest of HUNDREDS and HUNDREDS of articles exposing and suggesting inter-generational organized crime’s control of the “Government,” Media and Academia by the Art of Liberty Foundation.

Critics contend that the J6 riots were provoked to prevent Republicans in Congress from objecting to the certification.The FBI said an unknown suspect placed pipe bombs under a park bench at the DNC and the Capitol Hill Club near the Republican National Committee building around 8 pm the night before the riot. The pipe bombs were discovered just before the riot and some police resources were redirected to investigating the dummy pipe bombs.Continue readingPelosi’s Net Worth Surged 2,297% Since First Taking Office 38 Years AgoEtienne Note: This article also appears in “Government”, Media and Academia Criminality Exposed, A digest of HUNDREDS and HUNDREDS of articles exposing and suggesting inter-generational organized crime’s control of the “Government,” Media and Academia by the Art of Liberty Foundation.

This in-depth breakdown reveals how Big Tech’s AI boom hides a growing cash flow crisis.In The Big Short, there’s a quiet moment that defines Michael Burry.As his investors press him on why he wants to bet against MBS, the investor asks, “How do you know the bonds are worthless?”“I read them,” Burry says.The investor laughs. “No one reads them. Not even the guys on Wall Street.”Burry ends with “I don’t think they know what they made”That line became legend — because it was true. And it still is.Now, nearly twenty years later, Burry is reading again — and warning again.Only this time, the danger isn’t in mortgage bonds; it’s buried deep inside Big Tech’s balance sheets.Continue readingIs European Bread Healthier Than American Bread?by Dr. Joseph MercolaBread differs significantly between the U.S. and Europe due to wheat type, fermentation time, and chemical use, which shape not only taste and texture but also how your body digests itAmerican bread often uses hard wheat with high gluten, shorter fermentation, and chemical additives. This leads to denser loaves that strain digestion and trigger discomfort in sensitive individualsTraditional European-style breads typically ferment for 12 to 48 hours, allowing microbes to break down gluten and sugars while enhancing mineral absorption, flavor, and digestibility without chemical shortcutsGlyphosate residues are more common in U.S. wheat, where the herbicide is sprayed before harvest, disrupting gut microbes and increasing health risksChoosing or making bread with simple ingredients, like with real sourdough, lets you enjoy loaves that support digestion, provide nourishment, and carry forward traditions of food craftsmanshipContinue readingThese Are The 20 Most Chilling Insights From Yuri Bezmenovby Tyler DurdenAuthored by Doug Ross via Director Blue Substack,Yuri Aleksandrovich Bezmenov (1939–1993), also known as Tomas David Schuman, was a Soviet journalist and KGB operative specializing in propaganda and ideological subversion.Ideological subversion is the process of bending a society’s perception of reality so completely that it destroys itself.In the Cold War era, few voices pierced the veil of secrecy as profoundly as that of Yuri Bezmenov, a KGB defector whose chilling exposés on ideological subversion still resonate today. His warnings, drawn from firsthand experience in Soviet active measures, offer blueprints for destroying free societies—not through bombs, invasions or disease, but through the poisons of manipulated ideas and cultural decay.Continue readingYou Have No Idea How Screwed OpenAI Actually Isby Will LockettIt is almost funny how the world has only just cottoned on to the AI bubble. Every time I read the news, it feels like an arsonist complaining that the building is on fire. Every major banker, venture capitalist, financial pundit and media outlet that made AI hype their entire personality a year ago is now warning that when the AI bubble pops, it will crash our economy. Great… And whose fault is that, exactly? But what I find truly fascinating about this sudden snap back to reality is that it is totally surface-level. For example, none of these people have even tried to look under the hood of OpenAI, which is overwhelmingly responsible for this bubble. That is almost offensive, because they could probably build a mass grave with all the skeletons in their closet. So, let’s dig into OpenAI and put a name to these ghouls so terrifying no one can talk about them.Continue readingWhy Solarpunk is already happening in Africaby Skander GarroumHey there! 👋Skander here.You know that feeling when you’re waiting for the cable guy, and they said ‘between 8am and 6pm, and you waste your entire day, and they never show up?Now imagine that, except the cable guy is ‘electricity,’ the day is ‘50 years,’ and you’re one of 600 million people. At some point, you stop waiting and figure it out yourself.What’s happening across Sub-Saharan Africa right now is the most ambitious infrastructure project in human history, except it’s not being built by governments or utilities or World Bank consortiums. It’s being built by startups selling solar panels to farmers on payment plans. And it’s working.Over 30 million solar products sold in 2024. 400,000 new solar installations every month across Africa. 50% market share captured by companies that didn’t exist 15 years ago. Carbon credits subsidizing the cost. IoT chips in every device. 90%+ repayment rates on loans to people earning $2/day.Continue readingMinarchism Is Statism Liteby Mises WirePer BylundIt may be true that lovers of liberty, originally steeped in society’s preferred form of social democracy, must travel along the spectrum of the state via small (“minimal”) before reaching the conclusion that the state must go. But logically, this is not the case. To cure cancer, it is not necessary to reduce the size of a tumor bit by bit. The cure is to remove it. Similarly, if a rock upsets the flow of a stream, the solution is not to change the size or shape of the rock, to make it more streamlined, but to simply remove it.This logic seems impossible to recognize for those who have already adopted the minarchist position. Usually hiding behind questions like “but how would it work,” minarchists cannot get their heads around the meaning of anarchism. To them, as to any statist, without the state, society would immediately degenerate into a Hobbesian bellum omnium contra omnes (“war of all against all”). The assumption, which cannot be questioned, is that some form of control or supervised order is necessary for people to get along, solve problems, or coordinate their actions.Continue readingStablecoins: The US Dollar’s Unexpected Lifelineby Mises Wire•Rowan ParchiA paradox now sits at the center of global finance: the US government, in trying to stabilize its debt markets, has legitimized the very free-market forces that are eroding its monopoly over money.In mid-2025, the United States enacted the GENIUS Act, the first comprehensive legal framework for stablecoins — privately issued, fully backed digital dollars that move instantly across open blockchain networks rather than through the regulated banking system. The law gave official legitimacy to an already booming industry, but its deeper consequence reaches far beyond cryptocurrency. It has turned stablecoin issuers into a new and dependable class of buyers of US government debt.At a time when foreign central banks are cutting their Treasury holdings and America’s fiscal burden is swelling, this flow of private demand has become a genuine lifeline. And therein lies the paradox: by empowering private markets to create and circulate digital dollars backed by US Treasuries, the government has secured short-term relief for its mounting financial pressures — while allowing an ever larger share of the dollar system to evolve beyond its direct control. To keep control in one place it is losing control in another.Continue readingThe Third Rail: Covid-19 Vaccines and CancerBy Charlotte KuperwasserI’m going to touch on a highly controversial subject, one that has become the third rail among cancer biologists and the broader medical community: the possible link between Covid-19 vaccination and cancer. Because my laboratory’s mission is centered on cancer prevention, I cannot in good conscience ignore the elephant in the room.As my colleague, internationally renowned cancer biologist Dr. Wafik El-Deiry, and I articulated in the September ACIP meeting on Covid vaccines, nearly 50 publications have reported a temporal association between Covid-19 mRNA vaccination and the onset of cancer. Epidemiological studies (one from Italy and one from South Korea) have also described increased cancer incidence among Covid-vaccinated individuals compared to unvaccinated groups (albeit with caveats). These reports are mounting and it’s time we acknowledge that something meaningful may be occurring rather than dismissing them outright; this latter response seems to be the dominant reaction in academia, the media, and by our regulatory agencies.Continue readingHow Exercise Helps Maintain Healthy Vitamin D Levels in the Wintertimeby Dr. Joseph MercolaDuring winter in northern climates, sunlight is too weak to trigger vitamin D production, leaving many people — especially those with excess body fat — at risk for deficiencyA 10-week study found that exercise alone, without supplements or weight loss, helped maintain levels of active vitamin D in overweight or obese adultsPhysical activity altered enzyme activity in fat tissue, boosting the body’s ability to convert stored vitamin D into its usable form and preventing it from being broken downPeople with the most fat tissue saw the biggest improvements in vitamin D activation, showing that exercise is especially important if you’re carrying extra weightExercise trains your body to activate and protect the vitamin D it already has, offering a natural way to help maintain vitamin D levels through winter when sun exposure is limitedContinue readingThe Thinker – A Poem by Berton BraleyBack of the beating hammerBy which the steel is wrought,Back of the workshop’s clamorThe seeker may find the Thought,The Thought that is ever masterOf iron and steam and steel,That rises above disasterAnd tramples it under heel!The drudge may fret and tinkerOr labor with lusty blows,But back of him stands the Thinker,The clear-eyed man who knows;For into each plow or saber,Each piece and part and whole,Must go the Brains of Labor,Which gives the work a soul!Back of the motors hummingBack of the belts that sing,Back of the hammers drumming.Back of the cranes that swing,There is the eye which scans themWatching through stress and strainThere is the Mind which plans them-Back of the brawn, the Brain!Might of the roaring boiler,Force of the engine’s thrust,Strength of the sweating toiler-Greatly in these we trust.But back of them stands the Schemer,The Thinker who drives things through;Back of the Job-the DreamerWho’s making the dream come true!Continue readingWhat happens to your body after you drink a can of CokeBy David CoxAn amusing tale which regularly does the rounds on social media is that every time you consume a can of Coke, you lose 12 minutes of your life.While not entirely accurate – it’s an approximation based on Coke’s sugar content and how sugar consumption affects life expectancy, and doesn’t account for the other genetic and lifestyle factors which influence your lifespan – it has raised awareness of the health concerns relating to Coke. This has been newly highlighted by a number of recent studies.Last month, a paper examining the dietary patterns of more than 123,000 people in the UK over 10 years revealed that consuming a single sugary beverage such as Coke on a daily basis is sufficient to raise your risk of fatty liver disease by 50 per cent.This follows another study, published in January in the prestigious journal Nature Medicine, which linked such sugary drinks to millions of new cases of type 2 diabetes and heart disease around the world. The study authors described how one of the major issues is that people typically consume drinks such as Coke as part of a generally poor dietary pattern, low in the fruit- and fibre-rich foods that could have helped the body deal with the sugar load.Continue readingNASA Killed the First Moon Landing Crewby Research IntegrityI interviewed the widow of the man who was going to be the first man to walk on the moon, Virgil Grissom. He was the most beloved of all the astronauts. I interviewed his widow for four hours.It’s her opinion, not mine, with 100% certainty that he was murdered by the CIA for not cooperating with fraud in the Apollo program. She told me so. She said on January 26, 1967, he came home from work and said this, Han, for some strange reason, the CIA is all over the launch pad today inspecting the equipment.I’ve been here three years, he said. They’ve never been here before. Why did they show up today? The very next day, he’s dead from faulty equipment.Because a few days before this, he held a press conference without permission when he took a bunch of reporters up to the top of the rocket and affixed a lemon the size of a grapefruit to the top of the Apollo rocket, calling it a piece of junk. He was preparing reports, according to his widow, to give to Congress and the Senate that the CIA confiscated from his house the day he died before they even informed his widow that he had died. He knew they were 10 years or more away from going to the moon.Continue readingApple Launches TSA-ready Digital ID for Domestic Travelby Veronika KyrylenkoApple has launched Digital ID for the iPhone and Apple Watch. Drawing information from a user’s passport, the new feature is marketed as an “easy, secure, and private” way to verify identity during domestic travel, with additional use cases promised soon. With iPhones holding about 58 percent of the U.S. smartphone market, the update reaches a user base large enough to alter everyday identification practices.Digital IDs sit at the center of a broader global system built through what officials refer to as “public-private partnerships.” These alliances shape policies, set technical standards, and define the rules of planet-wide “digital governance.”Within that structure, Apple’s new update fits seamlessly. While offered to the public as a convenience feature, it will move society closer to a model in which identity, access, and compliance operate through a single device that people already carry without much thought.Continue readingA Top-10 Prepping List, Multi-Tool Not Included – Part 1, by St. FunogasBy SurvivalBlog ContributorIt was quickly apparent the author was an armchair prepper at best. Many of the non-negotiable items were overlooked, some items would be good for wilderness survival but not post-SHTF survival, and others were common everyday things we already own such as warm socks. Some of the items were unnecessary gadgets.Out of curiosity I did a search for other top-10 lists. The ones I found had the same issues. The worst one was a shameless list of the top-75 items every prepper needs which was nothing more than a collection of Amazon links the author would make money on. I saw more than one of those kinds of lists. Many things on the list clearly had nothing to do with survival of any kind other than the financial survival of the author.Most top-10 lists have water filters or purification tablets listed without ever mentioning how and where to get water in the first place; ferro rods but no mention of how to use one to heat the home; clothes but no way to wash them; and the list goes on. Every list has food as the number one item, lots of beans, rice, and freeze-dried stroganoff, but the rest of the list was clearly for a short-term event such as a hurricane. For short-term events, we should be stocking up on more of whatever it is we normally eat, not beans and rice. Many lists have the same 5-gallon buckets of beans and rice, along with hatchets, lean-to tarps, sleeping bags, and edible-plant books, with no mention of how they’re going to be hauling all those buckets of food to wherever it is they’re going with all that wilderness-survival gear. And why do the lists always have a tarp instead of an actual shelter from the elements, perhaps a tent?Continue readingA Top-10 Prepping List, Multi-Tool Not Included – Part 2, by St. FunogasBy SurvivalBlog ContributorContinued from Part 1.3. WOODSTOVECurrently, only 1.7% of American homes heat with wood with an additional 7.7% use it for their secondary source of heat. That leaves 90% of Americans without a sustainable way to heat their homes if the SHTF. Don’t be one of those 90% if you want to survive your first post-SHTF winter.Based on those numbers, for most preppers heat will be the second most difficult thing (after water) to prepare for on a long-term sustainable basis. And because it’s so difficult, it’ll be the most neglected topic among their prepping priorities. Don’t ignore it! For those who already have a woodstove, prepping will be easier: extra door-gasket cord and chimney pipe, and perhaps a backup woodstove.

Many preppers won’t have enough water to waste it flushing toilets so an outhouse or composting toilet will be necessary. Regardless of whether you have a flush toilet or something else, find a way to save the urine. Not only is it the best garden fertilizer, it will also speed up the composting process as well. Best of all, fertilizing the pile with urine allows us to add things which we can’t currently compost. This includes all of our waste paper and cardboard, and high-carbon organic matter like straw, sawdust, and cornstalks. The composting bacteria need lots of nitrogen which urine providesUnlike feces, urine is sterile when it is first excreted so there’s no bacteria to worry about when handling it. If we’re just composting our kitchen waste without some of these high-carbon organic materials, at the end of a year the final amount of composted humus will be surprisingly small. Compared to today, our kitchen waste will be even less when we’re needing to get every molecule of nutrition we can from what we eat. No more trimming the tops off carrots, peeling potatoes, trimming the fat off meat, and no more leftovers. When breaking virgin soil to create or enlarge a garden, we’ll need a large compost pile to provide the necessary humus to speed up the soil-improvement process.Continue readingA Top-10 Prepping List, Multi-Tool Not Included – Part 4, by St. FunogasBy SurvivalBlog ContributorContinued from Part 3.See Part 1See Part 2Prepping for electricity was only on one of the top-10 lists I could find, and wasn’t mentioned at all even on most of the lengthier prepping lists. Of all the things we take for granted in our daily lives, electricity has to be one of the most common. If the Schumer hits the fan, there’s no need to step back to the 1800s and punish ourselves by living electricity free when there are some inexpensive, easy-to-use modern-day options. Too many preppers haven’t gotten past that 1800s mentality and modernized their thought, a conclusion I came to after seeing that every single prepping list I saw has candles or oil lamps on their top-10 or top-25 lists. That and the fact that typical top-10 lists fail to mention electricity altogether.Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsBitchill – November 18th-25th – Prospera, Roatan, HondurasSan Diego Counterforce Alliance – Freedom Christmas Party – Saturday, December 13th – Green Dragon Inn 5:30 PM PST – 6115 Paseo Del Norte, Carlsbad, CA 92011 – john_s_email(at)yahoo.com to RSVP or get infoThe People’s Reset – Morelia, Mexico – Jan 28th-Feb 1st 2026Principled Business Summit- Prospera, Roatán, Honduras, February 5–9, 2026MONEROTOPIA 2026-Roma, Mexico City, February 12TH-15TH 2026Entrepreneurship Beyond Politics: Mises Circle in Oklahoma City – Feb 21st, OKC, OKFreedom Under Natural Law Conference – February 21st & 22nd 2026, On-lineMises Institute Libertarian Scholars Conference – March 19, 2026, at our Auburn, ALAustrian Economic Research Conference 2026 – March 19-21, 2026, Auburn, ALRothbard University-May 14-16, 2026, Auburn, ALLibertarian Scholars Conference 2026- March 19, 2026 – March 19, 2026 – Auburn, Alabama.DubFX, Woodnote, and Grant “Prezence” Ellman are going to be touring Europe Sept-December.

PLUS…. Cospaia – A Micro-Country without “Gov’t” from 1440-1826 in the heart of ItalyDear Subscribers,The top stories this week:Presentation by Denis Rancourt – If you thought “The Covid” was a real thing killing people AND/OR you don’t believe the “vaccines” were killing people, then Denis Rancourt’s presentation to World Council on Health will convince you. Covid hospital deaths were the hospital’s protocols, lonliness, masks, ventilators, and isolation…. UNTIL… the “vaccines” started… THEN the deaths REALLY cranked up…The Republic of Cospaia – a micro-country without “government” for almost 400 years… from 1440-1826 right in the heart of Italy. A really interesting story and video.Random thoughts:Alex Jones and Russell Brand stripped down on the Alex Jones show further demonstrating a term I coined after Alex Jones and Ye donned weird masks during an interview and made themselves and their followers/promoters look stupid: The Clownification of the OppositionAfter we released the REAL Political Spectrum for Canada last week, we had a member of the Canadian Parliament join our mailing list.We are releasing the UK versions this week, BUT… I never heard back from my UK folks on the final draft… How did we do?

E-mail me at Etienne (at) ArtOfLiberty.orgTop Stories of the WeekDenis Rancourt Presentation: Covid Excess Mortality: What Really Caused It, Really?by Denis Rancourt“Probably one of the most important presentations of the last few years” — Christof Plothe,World Council for HealthABSTRACT: I will present our group’s five years of rigorous analysis of excess mortality during the COVID-19 era, including The Netherlands as an example. High-resolution geotemporal patterns on several continents show that viral disease spread did not cause the observed excess all-cause mortality. The mortality patterns are contrary to aviation and societal transmission; instead, they synchronize with imposed local measures and institutional practices. Vaccine rollouts often closely associate with large mortality peaks, but we attribute this primarily to concomitant assaults and severe disruptions of care rather than the known direct toxicity of the injections. The COVID-19 pandemic event echoes historical pandemics and wars over millennia, which followed long periods of increasing economic predation causing large-scale socially heterogeneous extreme poverty and chronic health deficiencies, accompanied by shrill propaganda and fear. At the highest level, a solution would be to dismantle geo-economic and investor predation and the elite systemic corruption that drives it. This work supports evidence-based reform.Continue readingThe Republic of Cospaia: An Anarchist (Voluntaryist) Renaissance Cityby Power & Market, Ellie McFarland via Mises Institute with Video by Ceadda of MerciaEtienne Note: This Article is the 1st in a Series Focused on Civilizations without “Government” that is being syndicated as companion media for my upcoming book: Voluntaryism – How the Only “ISM” Fair for Everyone Leads to Harmony, Prosperity, and Good Karma for All. I plan to cover other examples including: Medieval Brehon Ireland, Medieval Iceland, Cospaia (Italy-1440-1826), and modern examples such as Cheran, Mexico and Prospera (Honduras).The Republic of Cospaia existed between 1440 and 1826. That’s nearly four hundred years. For comparison, the Republic of Cospaia existed for fifty-two years longer than Europe has known about the Americas. It is the longest-lived, most modern, most capitalist, and most Western anarchist society to ever exist. “Western” is important because often it is not enough to site anarchic native civilizations of the Americas and Oceania. Some argue that their anarchism was a result of their ill-advanced technology or their relative isolation. This bypasses all of that. Cospaia was as developed as any other mid-rural hamlet at the time of its conception. It continued to advance at a comparable rate to surrounding areas until its death in the early 1800s. Unless one argues that all of the Mediterranean was primitive well into the nineteenth century, the argument of ill advancement holds no water.Continue Reading…Videos of the WeekFood, Not Lack of Exercise, Fuels Obesityby Dr. Joseph MercolaObesity is not caused by lack of exercise, as people in wealthier nations burn more calories daily yet still gain more fatEating ultraprocessed foods is strongly linked to higher body fat because they disrupt hunger signals and make calories easier to storeBody fat percentage, not BMI, is the most accurate way to measure obesity and related health risksModern ultraprocessed diets and lower immune demands in industrialized countries lower resting energy needs, making fat storage more likelyYou can restore your metabolism by removing vegetable oils, eating the right carbs for your gut health, reducing estrogen and EMF exposure, and avoiding ultraprocessed foodsObesity has become one of the leading drivers of disease worldwide, claiming more than 4 million lives each year.1 In the U.S. alone, rates have climbed steadily over the past century, transforming a condition once rare into one of the most pressing public health threats.

Affirm was founded in 2012 by PayPal co-founder, Max Levchin, but was only used on high purchases by a small handful of merchants.After the 2020 Lockdowns, as people’s money became weaker, sudden partnerships with Apple Pay and Amazon, a Super Bowl ad and an IPO brought Affirm and the entire Buy-Now-Pay-Later scheme to a public already slipping into debt. The first year saw an over four-hundred-percent increase in people using Buy-Now-Pay-Later services to buy essentials including groceries, gas, and paying their utilities.Starting in 2024, Affirm has been gradually rolling out its new requirement for biometric identification.Once again, this is the old fashioned Problem-Reaction-Solution scheme being deployed. Under the guises of safety and fraud prevention, the Buy-Now-Pay-Later industry will soon require biometric ID. And Visa is following close behind. Visa launched their Payment Passkey in 2024, which allows you to voluntarily make purchases with your phone’s built-in biometrics. Visa aims to be “biometric-first” by 2026. The International banking cartel has made it clear that this is where we are headed.

The nonprofit, founded in 1971 by left-leaning political activist Ralph Nader, focuses on corporate money and influence in government.

This permanent change comes after a July FCC decision to temporarily raise the maximum rate that telecom companies can charge inmates per minute.In 2024, the FCC established a cap of $0.06 or $0.07 per minute for inmate phone calls, depending on the size of the prison or jail. This followed the passage of the Martha Wright-Reed Just and Reasonable Communications Act of 2022, which clarified the FCC’s authority to regulate prison communication costs. The act was named for a grandmother who advocated for price caps after spending more than $100 per month to call her incarcerated grandson and sometimes skipped medication payments to afford the bill.Continue readingThe REAL Political Spectrum… Around the WorldI am adding a new recurring feature to Five Meme Friday: The REAL Political Spectrum… Around the World!

The vertical design and smart tracking functions of the towers offer big improvements over flat panel arrays.Currently, most solar farms consist of flat panels laid out across the ground or on rooftops. But in much the same way that this is an inefficient way to house people, it’s also not a great way to harvest the Sun’s energy. Tall skyscrapers can hold significantly more people on a small footprint, so why not apply that thinking to solar panels as well?That’s the kind of thinking that has been behind the success of Janta Power, a developer of unique three-dimensional solar tower systems.

These individuals are overwhelmingly concentrated in politically sensitive departments, such as trust and safety, security, and content moderation, meaning that these ex-spies and intelligence officials are helping to influence what billions of people around the world see, read and hear (and deciding who is promoted and who is suppressed).Continue readingIs Skynet Close? Anduril’s Pilotless YFQ-44 Fury “Fighter” Drone Has Flownby Tyler DurdenBy Joseph Trevithick of The War ZoneAnduril’s YFQ-44A ‘fighter drone’ prototype has now made its maiden flight. The YFQ-44A is one of two designs currently being developed under the first phase, or Increment 1, of the U.S. Air Force’s Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) program. The other is General Atomics’ YFQ-42A, which took to the skies for the first time earlier this year.A TWZ reader has shared pictures with us of the YFQ-44A in flight, which were taken earlier today at Southern California Logistics Airport in Victorville, California. The drone was also seen accompanied by two L-29 Delfin trainer jets acting as chase planes. We have reached out to Anduril for more information.Additional imagery of the YFQ-44A in flight is now beginning to circulate online.Last year, the Air Force announced that it trimmed back the field of prospective Increment 1 CCA designs to the proposals from Anduril and General Atomics. However, Fury’s story traces back to the late 2010s and an aggressor drone concept from a company called Blue Force Technologies, which Anduril acquired in 2023, as you can read about in extensive detail in this past War Zone feature.Continue readingEx-Mossad Head: We’ve ‘Boobytrapped And Manipulated’ Equipment in ‘All Countries You Can Imagine’by fluoridealert26% higher risk of fragility fractures in postmenopausal women• Risks found even at exposure levels from artificial fluoridationA new systematic review identified 27 studies of fluoride and bone fractures and found significantly increased risk of fractures in pooled analyses, especially in postmenopausal women [Mazzoli et al 2025]. This demographic has the highest risk of hip fractures, which are a major cause of permanent disability and death in older women. Following a hip fracture, 30% are dead within a year and 50% will never be able to walk without assistance.This review’s finding is consistent with a high-quality study in Sweden which is considered the most rigorous study of fluoride and bone fracture to date [Helte et al 2021] but was not included in the pooled analyses. Furthermore, this new paper included dose-response meta-analyses that found increases in fracture rates starting at water fluoride concentrations of about 0.5 milligrams per liter (mg/L), consistent with the Swedish study which found increased fracture risks in an area where the natural water fluoride concentration was 1.0 mg/L or lower. These exposures are in the same range as people experience who drink artificially fluoridated water at 0.7 mg/L. The paper summarized its key finding:Continue readingThis roof paint blocks 97% of sunlight and pulls water from the airBy Bronwyn ThompsonA roof paint that can cool your home and pull fresh water straight out of the air? It’s within reach, as scientists scale up production of a new kind of paint-like coating that shields roofing from the sun’s rays and harvests dew from its surface.Researchers at the University of Sydney and commercial start-up Dewpoint Innovations have created a nano-engineered polymer coating that not only reflects up to 97% of the sun’s rays, but also passively collects water. In tests, it was able to keep indoors up to 6 °C (~11 °F) cooler than the air outside.That temperature differential results in water vapor condensing on the surface – like the fogging on a cold mirror – producing a steady trickle of droplets.In trials on the roof of the Sydney Nanoscience Hub, the coating captured dew more than 30% of the year, generating as much as 390 mL of water per square meter (roughly 13 fluid ounces per 10.8 square feet) daily. This might not sound like a lot, but a 12-sq-m (about 129-sq-ft) section of treated roof could produce around 4.7 L (around 1.25 US gallons) of water per day under optimal conditions.Continue readingNew Study Finds Cognitive Impairment Is Skyrocketing Across AmericaBy Nicolas Hulscher, MPHA major new Neurology study analyzing more than 4.5 million U.S. adults has uncovered a striking trend: self-reported cognitive disability—difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions—has surged by 40% over the past decade.According to CDC Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data, prevalence rose from 5.3% in 2013 to 7.4% in 2023, marking the sharpest increase ever recorded.Even just since 2019, rates climbed from roughly 6.4% to 7.4% nationwide—a 16% jump in only four years. The most dramatic rise occurred among younger adults aged 18–39, where rates nearly doubled, from 5.1% to 9.7%. This climb began around 2016 and continued steadily through 2023, with no signs of stopping.The implications stretch far beyond neurology clinics. The collapse in sustained attention, logical reasoning, and decision making abilities now pervades public discourse, workplaces, and relationships.Continue readingFluoride Linked to Bone Fractures in Pooled Analysis of 27 Studiesby fluoridealert26% higher risk of fragility fractures in postmenopausal women• Risks found even at exposure levels from artificial fluoridationA new systematic review identified 27 studies of fluoride and bone fractures and found significantly increased risk of fractures in pooled analyses, especially in postmenopausal women [Mazzoli et al 2025].

The paper summarized its key finding:Continue reading700,000 Ineligible SNAP Recipients Purged After USDA Uncovers Widespread Food Stamp Fraudby Tyler DurdenU.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins joined Fox News on Sunday and addressed the American people about the USDA’s massive effort to combat fraud in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).Rollins said that the Trump administration sent letters to all governors prohibiting illegal aliens from accessing benefits, with a historic request for state data to be audited alongside the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). She said only 29 states cooperated, primarily red and some blue states.She said her team and DOGE found some of the most shocking fraud ever, resulting in the purging of 700,000 ineligible recipients since the president’s inauguration, and arrested 118 individuals.Some of the key findings she unveiled in the interview:SNAP spending surged nearly 40% under Biden, linked to $100 billion in expenditures.Continue readingIt’S Never Different This TimeBy Assaf Gilead/Globes/TnsAmazon and Google, which won the Israeli government’s Nimbus cloud computing deal, agreed to demands to set up a special reporting mechanism about data handed to foreign governments, as part of the contract, according to leaked documents seen by the Guardian, as part of a joint investigation with left-leaning Israeli-Palestinian publication +972 Magazine and Hebrew-language outlet Local Call.Through a so-called coded system called the “winking mechanism,” every request to hand over data to a foreign government is accompanied by a report made in a way that seems to come straight out of a spy thriller.

Revive The Table. You can preorder a physical copy on the website.Earlier this year, World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab was effectively forced out of his own globalist group he founded decades ago. Ascending to Schwab’s role, André Hoffmann – a Swiss billionaire and great-grandson of Fritz Hoffmann-La Roche, who founded the drug company Roche – and Larry Fink were selected as the interim Co-Chairs of the WEF.1 The WEF, as we know, is the controversial group that tells us that we, among many other controversial things, will “own nothing and be happy” by 2030.The two indicated in August that their ascendance signified a “pivotal transition” in the WEF’s agenda, writing:“We are honored to take on this leadership role on an interim basis at a pivotal time for the World Economic Forum. As the organization moves into a new chapter, we look ahead with clarity, purpose, and confidence in the Forum’s enduring mission.Continue readingYouTube: A Digital Form of Occupation Designed to Silence Palestinian Voicesby Matt SledgeLocal cops have gotten tens of millions of dollars’ worth of discounted military gear under a secretive federal program that is poised to grow under recent executive action from Donald Trump, according to a new report.Armored vehicles, video surveillance programs, and thermal imagers are all examples of the ware purchased by local police under a lesser-known cousin to another controversial program that gifts them the gear outright.The floodgates could be opened now that President Donald Trump has revoked an executive order issued by his predecessor, Joe Biden, meant to tamp down on the “warrior cop” trend.When paired with the increasing number of local agencies aiding mass deportation, the 1122 program — so named after a section of federal defense law — presents a danger to people facing off against militarized cops, according to Women for Weapons Trade Transparency.Continue readingAn Obscure Military Program Helps Local Cops Buy Armored Cars and Spyware.

This video actually shows us what the secret of the Trump family is related to their expressive health!!! Video HERE.None of us is really looking forward to the next great depression, even while we’re all expecting it to come. The reality is that rough financial times are worrisome for everyone, including the most prepared preppers amongst us. While you and I might be better off than our neighbors are, there’s still the possibility of losing our jobs, followed by our cars and then our homes.Since one of the marks of depression is high unemployment, there’s no guarantee that any of us will manage to keep our jobs or even find another job if we lose ours. While 75% of people managed to keep their jobs back in the Great Depression of the last century, it is the 25% of them who lost their jobs that we all focus on.Continue readingBREAKING: Peer-Reviewed Study Finds COVID-19 “Vaccines” Linked to 63 Serious Brain and Spinal Cord Adverse EventsBy Nicolas Hulscher, MPHThe study titled “COVID-19 mRNA Vaccination: Implications for the Central Nervous System,” authored by Kirstin Cosgrove, BM, CCRA; James A. Thorp, MD; Claire Rogers, MSPAS, PA-C; Steven Hatfill, MD; Nicolas Hulscher, MPH; and Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH, was just published after successful peer-review in the International Journal of Research in Medical Sciences.Using VAERS data from January 1990 through November 2024, we compared adverse events reported after COVID-19 vaccination to those after influenza vaccination and all other vaccines combined. We focused specifically on the central nervous system (CNS) — the brain and spinal cord, which control everything from memory and thought to movement and vital body functions. In total, we identified 63 serious safety signals involving the brain and nervous system, ranging from meningitis and encephalitis to brain abscesses, herpesvirus reactivations, demyelinating syndromes, and even prion diseases — each breaching CDC/FDA thresholds that are supposed to trigger immediate safety investigations.Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsBitchill – November 18th-25th – Prospera, Roatan, HondurasSan Diego Counterforce Alliance – Freedom Christmas Party – Saturday, December 13th – Green Dragon Inn 5:30 PM PST – 6115 Paseo Del Norte, Carlsbad, CA 92011 – john_s_email(at)yahoo.com to RSVP or get infoThe People’s Reset – Morelia, Mexico – Jan 28th-Feb 1st 2026Principled Business Summit- Prospera, Roatán, Honduras, February 5–9, 2026MONEROTOPIA 2026-Roma, Mexico City, February 12TH-15TH 2026Entrepreneurship Beyond Politics: Mises Circle in Oklahoma City – Feb 21st, OKC, OKFreedom Under Natural Law Conference – February 21st & 22nd 2026, On-lineMises Institute Libertarian Scholars Conference – March 19, 2026, at our Auburn, ALAustrian Economic Research Conference 2026 – March 19-21, 2026, Auburn, ALRothbard University-May 14-16, 2026, Auburn, ALDubFX, Woodnote, and Grant “Prezence” Ellman are going to be touring Europe Sept-December.

PLUS…. Landmark Report Finds Vaccination Is the Dominant Risk Factor for Autism Spectrum DisorderDear Subscribers,I wrote an article a couple of weeks ago entitled The Fake Left-Right Paradigm – What is the REAL Political Spectrum the Monopoly Media is Hiding? The 1st visualization in the article has become the most viral meme that we have ever created. The former champion was “Meet the New Boss, Same as the Old Boss” that was also in the article. The REAL US Political Spectrum meme below ripped through Facebook, shared dozens of times that we could count. Some folks were downloading it and reuploading it so their version would be shared so we don’t know how far it went but we watched it pop up on meme syndicator websites and Substacks as well.In the article I tell the story about Marshall Fritz, who founded the Advocates for Self-Government, and popularized the Nolan Chart aKa The World’s Smallest Political Quiz, which has become the most successful libertarian educational tool of all time! Tens of millions of people have taken the Quiz and discovered libertarianism, the REAL political landscape, and the scam of the fake Left-Right political spectrum.I think our version is similarly important for many of the exact same reasons:It exposes the fraudulent nature of the fake Left-Right political paradigmIt helps normies better understand the REAL political spectrumCaveat: I think the Nolan chart/Quiz does a better job of defining the full political landscape BUT I think this chart (and the companion visualization below) does a SUPERB job at changing the way folks conditioned to the left-right spectrum will view & understand the world through that left-right lensIt promotes libertarianism & voluntaryism as alternativesIt helps people understand where libertarianism and voluntaryism sit on the left-right spectrum in the same favorable way as the Nolan Chart / QuizThe Companion Visualization Reframes Where the Republicans and Democrats REALLY FitBut wait… It gets better… It turns out… and I know you are going to find this hard to believe… that the other countries of the world are running the exact same scam… So the visualization has the opportunity to go viral in other countries for the exact same reason with the exact same results…So… We began creating V 2.0 with some improvements… AND for other countriesV 2.0 now includes the URL for a landing page on our website (ArtOfLiberty.org/REAL-Scale) where we are both collecting and promoting versions for the rest of the world.The landing page also has the article that explains:The REAL political spectrum,The history and overview of the Nolan Chart/World’s Smallest Political Quiz, Advocates for Self-GovernmentDirects folks to Advocates for Self-Government’s website where they can take the quiz for themselvesHere is the Australian version… When I ran this by Ron Manners, who runs the Mannkal Economic Education Foundation (The Australian Foundation for Economic Education) not only did he confirm we nailed it… But he Cc: in three heavy hitters in the Australian think tank and libertarian movement confirming to me that this is capable of circulating AND IS CIRCULATING at the highest intellectual levels around the world)Today we are launching Canada…. We have a variety of other countries in the works… and I am hoping that the folks in our audience can help us with the other countries we don’t have yet. Please email me at Etienne (at) ArtOfLiberty.org if you would like to help us create the two visualizations for your country!If you would like to help sponsor this endeavor, you can do so at ArtOfLiberty.org/SponsorWe have the article and all the existing countries at ArtOfLiberty.org/REAL-Scale which is the landing page for the project and the URL that every version of the visualizations will carry…I think Marshall Fritz would be pleased…Abigail Spanberger, is an “Ex” CIA Agent that is one of the DOZENS of intelligence agency and military alumni that appear to be getting funded and installed into political positions. We break that down in our expose: CIA Democrats (and Republicans!) – Are You Getting Your Politicians from the CIA? – I think the creator of this meme missed the point… She was ACTING!Have you seen our breakdown of the REAL Political Spectrum?

You can view the other articles or subscribe on Telegram: https://t.me/Government_ScamsAt the Art of Liberty Foundation, our working thesis is not only that “government” is illegitimate and best thought of as a technique for robbing and controlling populations, BUT that the US “government” (and most other governments) are being run as criminal enterprises.It is now emerging that the two $20 Billion dollar rescue packages (IMF & US Treasury) that US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent put together for Argentina directly benefits Bessent’s personal friend and ex-colleague at George Soros-connected hedge fund Discovery Capital. Specifics Below.The scam of banksters betting on and manipulating sovereign bonds is as old as the “founding” of the US Federal Government. I broke down a similar scam from the “founding” in my article The Shady History of the Con-stitution, where financial interests bought up revolutionary war debt issued by the Continental Congress for pennies on the dollar. Since the original “government” under the Articles of Confederation had no ability to “lay and collect taxes,” the promises had become worthless.Those same financial interests then took over the 1787 Philadelphia convention and rammed through an unauthorized replacement for the Articles of Confederation that created a “government” that could tax (steal), and then tricked the population into thinking it was legitimate through basically the same “control of perception” media system that we are under. I.E. controlling the newspapers of the day to pretend that a couple of dozen slave owners on a continent of three million people writing down on a fancy piece of paper that only they get to make up rules for everyone and steal the wealth of others is legitimate.Continue reading…Videos of the WeekInside Hebron: Living Under Israel’s “Smart City” SurveillanceMint Press News’ Mnar Adley Went to Palestine’s Most Surveilled City to Expose Israel’s Wolfpack AI – What She Found Broke Herby MintPress NewsEtienne Note: We have also covered ‘Lavender’: The AI machine directing Israel’s bombing spree in Gaza, where the Israeli army has marked tens of thousands of Gazans as suspects for assassination, using an AI targeting system with little human oversight and a permissive policy for casualties.Mint Press News just published a powerful new documentary that exposes how Israel is using Hebron—the West Bank’s largest Palestinian city—as a testing ground for its “smart city” surveillance regime.Dubbed the “Wolfpack” system, this network of facial recognition cameras, AI-powered weapons, and militarized checkpoints subjects Palestinians to what Amnesty International calls “automated apartheid.”Entire neighborhoods are shuttered, streets renamed, and families forced to navigate sniper-equipped checkpoints just to reach their own homes.This is not speculative dystopia. It’s daily life in Hebron, and a preview of technologies being refined for export and deployment across the globe.Continue reading…The United States Military Is A CultEtienne Note: I am revisiting some of the articles in our uncensorable flashdrive O’ Freedom: The Liberator for a podcast episode I am shooting this week for The Higherside Chats with Greg Carlwood which we will, eventually, syndicate on this Substack. I am going to do a deep dive on the cult-indoctrination techniques used on the military and police for that podcast. I break down the basics in my new book: To See the Cage is to Leave It – 25 Techniques the Few Use to Control the Many, where I list a variety of techniques. I am going to dive deeper with Greg so I am syndicating some articles I had archived on The Liberator to prepare.

Two of the most economically moronic measures can be found in California and Illinois where leaders could be pushing high-tax residents out of their respective states.In California, Gov. Gavin Newsom is seeking a billionaire tax that would target roughly 180 individuals who are expected to remain in the state, like some voluntary canned hunt. In Chicago, Mayor Brandon Johnson is facing the same exodus of businesses as California. His solution? A head tax on the very large corporations is needed for the city to survive. Even the far-left governor, J.B. Pritzker, is opposing the move as economically suicidal. However, groups like the teachers’ unions are pushing for this and other new taxes to support, among other things, a bloated pension plan for its members.Continue readingDown The ‘Racist’ Rabbit Hole – Why Are So Many Arrested Minorities Booked As ‘White’?by Tyler Durden2025 has been a great year for noticing things that would have gotten one censored, canceled, or debanked just a few short years ago.In today’s episode, former DOE nuclear engineer Matt Von Swol notices something that’s been floating around for years; the insane number of minorities (mexicans and blacks) who are booked as “WHITE” when they get arrested – something which obviously manipulates ‘inconvenient’ crime stats – something that TPUSA’s Andrew Kolvet noted have been “widely corrupted to serve a racist agenda.’“I searched through thousands of arrests in my county and every single Hispanic individual who has been arrested is labelled as “WHITE”“ Van Swol posted on X.We cannot trust crime stats in America. They have been widely corrupted to serve a racist agenda. https://t.co/UEpwDbnv2FContinue readingBan Monsanto (Bayer) & Israel Chemicals Ltd’s White Phosphorus Weaponsby advocacy.organicconsumers.orgIn solidarity with Lebanon’s The Land Remembers campaign for an immediate and unconditional ban on white phosphorus munitions in all forms of warfare and St. Louis, Missouri’s ICL Out of STL campaign to block the city of St. Louis from giving $200 million for expansion to Israel Chemicals Limited, a company that, with its partner Monsanto (Bayer), is the monopoly supplier of white phosphorus weapons to the U.S. War Department, the Organic Consumers Association is asking Congress to stop buying white phosphorus weapons and work for a ban.The Land Remembers petition states, “White phosphorus is a chemical weapon that ignites upon exposure to oxygen, burning at over 800°C. It inflicts horrific injuries, contaminates land and water, and renders entire regions uninhabitable for generations. In South Lebanon, its repeated use has scorched fields, homes, and bodies — turning landscapes into lingering sites of violence and toxicity.”Continue readingStudy Links Surge in Children’s Memory Problems to Wireless Radiation Exposureby Suzanne Burdick, Ph.D.This article was originally published by The Defender — Children’s Health Defense’s News & Views Website.Children and teens in Sweden and Norway are experiencing an “alarming” rise in memory problems, which the authors of a new peer-reviewed study attributed to increased exposure to wireless radiation.“The steep increase in memory issues cannot be explained by changes in diagnostic criteria or reporting to the registries alone,” Lennart Hardell, M.D., Ph.D., one of the study’s authors, said in a press release. He added:“We urge our findings on increasing numbers of children having impaired memory to be taken seriously by public health authorities and consider children’s increasing exposure to wireless radiation as a possible cause.“Thus, we ask for measures aimed at decreasing exposure to RF radiation [radiofrequency radiation] to protect the brain and general health of children.”Continue readingThese Are Forecast To Be America’s Fastest-Growing States Over The Next 25 Yearsby Tyler DurdenOver the next 25 years, Texas is projected to gain 8.6 million residents, the highest absolute increase across states.Like Texas, Florida and California are projected to lead nationally in population gains, adding 5.2 million and 3.1 million people, respectively. In comparison, 18 states are projected to shrink.This graphic, via Visual Capitalist’s Dorothy Neufeld, shows America’s fastest-growing states by 2050, based on forecasts from the University of Virginia.Between now and 2050, the U.S. is projected to grow 9%, adding nearly 32 million people to its population.However, growth across states is forecast to vary widely. Utah, for instance, is set to grow nearly four times faster than the national average, at 35%. Meanwhile, West Virginia’s population is set to contract 15%.Continue readingHow NBA figures and mafia families allegedly stole millions in rigged poker games: “Very sophisticated cheating technologies”By kerry BreenX-ray tables. Hidden cameras. Pre-marked cards. Even special contact lenses. Prosecutors say the suspects charged Thursday in a high-profile illegal gambling bust made use of sophisticated technology to cheat victims out of millions.In a series of arrests Thursday morning, law enforcement officers across the country took several big names in NBA basketball and dozens of alleged criminal figures into custody on illegal betting charges. One case focuses on sports betting while another involves allegations of elaborately rigged high-stakes poker games.FBI officials said at a news conference that the poker ring was operated by organized crime figures from “La Cosa Nostra,” referring to known mafia families. The 31 defendants include alleged members of the Bonnano, Gambino, Luchesse and Genovese crime families, as well as Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups and former player Damon Jones. Miami Heat star Terry Rozier is charged only in the sports betting case.Continue readingVenezuela Says CIA-Linked Mercenaries Caught During ‘False-Flag Attack’by Brett WilkinsThe government of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro said Sunday that his country’s security forces captured a group of mercenaries aligned with the US Central Intelligence Agency, less than two weeks after President Donald Trump confirmed his authorization of covert CIA action against the South American nation.Venezuela “reports that it has captured a mercenary group with direct information from the US intelligence agency, CIA, being able to determine that a false-flag attack is underway from waters bordering Trinidad and Tobago, or from Trinidad or Venezuelan territory itself,” the Venezuelan government said in a statement.“This planned action perfectly evokes the provocation of the Battleship Maine and the Gulf of Tonkin, which gave rise to the war against Spain to seize Cuba in 1898 and allowed the US Congress to authorize involvement in an eternal war against Vietnam in 1964, from which they emerged defeated by the Vietnamese people after facing incalculable destruction and regrettable human loss,” the statement continues.Continue readingBREAKING — Landmark Report Finds Vaccination Is the Dominant Risk Factor for Autism Spectrum Disorderby Nicolas Hulscher, MPHFor decades, scientists have debated what drives the relentless rise in autism. Some have claimed it’s due to “increased screening” while others declare it’s anything but vaccines. Thousands of studies have explored genetic, environmental, and perinatal factors—but very few have ever examined vaccine and non-vaccine determinants together within a unified analytical framework.Now, the landmark McCullough Foundation Report titled, Determinants of Autism Spectrum Disorder, provides the most comprehensive synthesis on the possible causes of autism to-date. Thanks to the tireless work of Nicolas Hulscher, MPH, John S. Leake, MA, Simon Troupe, MPH, Claire Rogers, MSPAS, PA-C, Kirstin Cosgrove, BM, CCRA, M. Nathaniel Mead, MSc, PhD, Bre Craven, PA-C, Mila Radetich, Andrew Wakefield, MBBS, and Peter A.

Click HERE for Article #1. I am revisiting some of the articles in our uncensorable flashdrive O’ Freedom: The Liberator for a podcast episode I am shooting this week for The Higherside Chats with Greg Carlwood which we will, eventually, syndicate on this Substack. I am going to do a deep dive on the cult-indoctrination techniques used on the military and police for that podcast. I break down the basics in my new book: To See the Cage is to Leave It – 25 Techniques the Few Use to Control the Many, where I list a variety of techniques. I am going to dive deeper with Greg so I am syndicating some articles I had archived on The Liberator to prepare.by The Wise SlothI served in the U.S. Air Force from 2000–2007. My AFSC was 3C0X1 (Communications computer systems operator). My highest rank was E-5 (Staff Sergeant), and I received an honorable discharge. I separated, because I realized 9 things about the military that would have kept me from joining in the first place if I had known them in 1999. None of these reasons are derogatory towards the troops. All of these reasons have to do with how the military treats the troops unethically. The purpose of this essay isn’t to defame servicemen and women. The purpose is to raise awareness of how the military system treats people and forewarn new recruits that they’re signing up to be treated unethically in at least 9 ways.Continue readingAffordable Heathcare Act Healthcare PLans Jump 26% A Yearby Nathaniel WeixelThe rates, pricing and other data for 2026 Affordable Care Act (ACA) insurance plans were publicly posted on the federal Healthcare.gov marketplace on Wednesday, just three days ahead of the start of open enrollment.The health research nonprofit KFF said the average increase in premiums for ACA plans will be 26 percent next year, based on data for “benchmark” silver plans, which are the midtier plans in each region that most people purchase and are used to set the subsidy amounts.But KFF found the amount that people pay for coverage is set to rise 114 percent on average because Congress has not extended the enhanced tax credits that help people afford insurance plans. Democrats have leaned heavily on expanding the subsidies as part of their challenge to the GOP-led continuing resolution that would reopen the government after funding lapsed nearly a month ago.Continue readingRevealed: Pentagon orders states’ national guards to form ‘quick reaction forces’ for ‘crowd control’by theguardian.comA top US military official has ordered the national guards of all 50 US states, the District of Columbia and US territories to form “quick reaction forces” trained in “riot control”, including use of batons, body shields, Tasers and pepper spray, according to an internal Pentagon directive reviewed by the Guardian.The memo, signed on 8 October by Maj Gen Ronald Burkett, the director of operations for the Pentagon’s national guard bureau, sets thresholds for the size of the quick reaction force to be trained in each state, with most states required to train 500 national guard members, for a total of 23,500 troops nationwide.As authority, Burkett cited Donald Trump’s August executive order that deployed the guard to fight crime in Washington DC. The same order required the secretary of defense to create “a standing National Guard quick reaction force … available for rapid nationwide deployment” in “quelling civil disturbances”.Continue readingTop Trump Officials Are Moving Onto Military BasesBy Michael Scherer, Missy Ryan, and Ashley ParkerThe former White House adviser Katie Miller—mother of three young children, and wife of the presidential right-hand man Stephen—walked out of her front door one Thursday morning last month and was confronted by a woman she did not know. When she told this story on Fox News, she described the encounter as a protest that crossed a line. The stranger had told Miller: “I’m watching you,” she said. This was the day after Charlie Kirk’s assassination. It also wasn’t anything new.For weeks before Kirk’s death, activists had been protesting the Millers’ presence in north Arlington, Virginia. Someone had put up wanted posters in their neighborhood with their home address, denouncing Stephen as a Nazi who had committed “crimes against humanity.” A group called Arlington Neighbors United for Humanity warned in an Instagram post: “Your efforts to dismantle our democracy and destroy our social safety net will not be tolerated here.” The local protest became a backdrop to the Trump administration’s response to Kirk’s killing. When Miller, the architect of that response who is known for his inflammatory political rhetoric, announced a legal crackdown on liberal groups, he singled out the tactics that had victimized his family—what he called “organized campaigns of dehumanization, vilification, posting peoples’ addresses.”Continue readingTravel chaos as America’s eighth busiest airport HALTS FLIGHTS over government shutdown staffing crisisEtienne Note: The organized crime “government” is making the “shutdown” hurt average people when it shouldn’t have to. I broke down in my presentation to Liberty on the Rocks – Sedona – The Voluntaryism Conference how Canada, the 2nd largest air traffic control system in the world had privatized their air traffic control system over a decade ago and planes aren’t dropping out of the sky in Canada. There is simply no reason why air traffic control should be run by the organized crime “government.”by Ross Ibbetson, Associate Editor And Elena Salvoni, Senior Foreign News ReporterThe Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has been forced to issue a ground stop at Newark airport over a staffing shortage caused by the government shutdown.The advisory issued at 3.32pm ET says that the ground delay program – which halts flights at their origin – will be in effect until at least 10.59pm.Continue readingICE and CBP Agents Are Scanning Peoples’ Faces on the Street Unconstitutionally To Verify Citizenship.by Ashley BelangerSocial media videos have confirmed that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers patrolling US streets are actively using facial recognition technology to verify citizenship, 404 Media reported.In one video posted on a Chicago-based Instagram account, a self-described teenager and US citizen tells officers that he has no government ID. After he offers to show his student ID instead, the officer turns to another and asks, “can you do facial?” As the other officer pulls up an app to scan the teen’s face, the first officer tells the teenager to “relax” while alleging that “a lot of parents” tell their kids they were born in the US. The video ends after the officer takes the minor’s photo and asks the teen to verify that his name matches what the app’s database pulled up.Continue readingThe Business of KillingEtienne Note: Suicide isn’t just a problem in the Chair Force.. It is across the services. We have covered Marine Drill Instructors who have also been hit incredibly hard. I blame the organized crime “government” for running the unethically manipulative techniques I describe in To See the Cage Is to Leave It – 25 Techniques the Few Use To Control the Many. Many of these techniques are used to create stone-cold killers and many of the troops realize what they have been a part of and have to deal with the remorse. Many of these classic “cult-creation techniques” produce higher than average suicides in other unethically manipulative cults that ask their adherents to suspend their individuality and don the Uni-Form and Shave their heads….by Austin CampbellStaff Sgt. Quinte Brown never showed up for dinner. It was a monthly ritual he kept with his friends in the Air Force — tacos and tequila — meant to remind each other that they were still human. Brown was always early, the one who helped cook, played with the kids, and stayed late to clean up. But on that cold Sunday night in January 2023, his friends kept checking their phones, wondering where he was. For someone as steady as Brown, an unexplained absence was unusual.Continue readingJunkermann’s Strategic Lawfare Aimed At Substack Turns FarcicalEtienne Note: Our Substack is also referenced in the Junkermann’s DMCA / Lawfare Claim for syndicating the article: First Friends: How “Italy’s Donald Trump” Introduced Naomi Campbell to Jeffrey Epstein.

I am slamming and jamming on my upcoming book Voluntaryism- How the Only “ISM” Fair for Everyone Leads to Harmony, Prosperity and Good Karma for All… I had my most productive week in months… We are still trying to raise some duckets to finish that up… If you are a “heavy hitter” interested in making a big impact, I would be happy to set up a zoom to take you through what we have cooking…Top Stories of the WeekGovernments Are Your Enemy! – Etienne de la Boetie2 on Jerm WarfareHas “Government” Been the Biggest Scam in History?In this conversation, Etienne de la Boetie2, an American author and advocate for voluntarism known for his critical views on government structures, discusses the concept of voluntarism and critiques the legitimacy and necessity of government. He argues that government is a scam that perpetuates crony capitalism and monopolises power, causing societal harm. The chat explores the role of media in shaping perceptions, the flaws of democracy, and the potential for a society without government. Practical steps for delegitimising government and the influence of banking on societal structures are also examined, culminating in a hopeful vision for a future based on voluntary interactions and REAL freedom.Continue reading…Videos of the WeekTech CEO’s are using this man’s behavioral science tool to turn our children into addictsStanford University Behavioral Psychologist Dr. BJ Fogg gave the tech companies the formula for screen addiction: B=M+A+T or Behavior = Motivation + Ability + Trigger.

I hope you will make time to check it out and read my article exposing how the organized crime “government” has known that their “vaccines” have been causing neurological issues in kids since at least 2000.A new documentary, An Inconvenient Study, which just won Best Film at the Malibu Film Festival, is shaking the vaccine industry to its very core.The film centers on what may be the largest vaccinated vs. unvaccinated study ever conducted, tracking 18,468 children over a ten-year period within the Henry Ford Health System. According to the data, unvaccinated children were found to be significantly healthier than their vaccinated counterparts — a finding that challenges mainstream assumptions about vaccine safety and public health.Here’s what the study revealed:• Vaccinated children were 4.29 times more likely to have asthma.• Three times higher risk for atopic diseases (like eczema).• Nearly six times higher risk for autoimmune disorders — a category that includes over 80 different diseases.• 5.5 times higher risk for neurodevelopmental disorders.• 2.9 times more motor disabilities.• 4.5 times more speech disorders.• Three times more developmental delays.• Six times more acute and chronic ear infections.• In nearly 2,000 unvaccinated children, there were ZERO cases of ADHD, diabetes, behavioral problems, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, tics, or other psychological disorders.• The study’s conclusion is devastating. It states: “[I]n contrast to our expectations, we found that exposure to vaccination was independently associated with an overall 2.5-fold INCREASE in the likelihood of developing a chronic health condition when compared to children unexposed to vaccination.”BUT… the study was never published.Why?Continue Reading…“Government”, Media and AcademiaCriminality ExposedThese articles also appears in “Government”, Media and Academia Criminality Exposed, A digest of HUNDREDS and HUNDREDS of articles exposing and suggesting inter-generational organized crime’s control of the “Government,” Media and Academia by the Art of Liberty Foundation.

It smells like an engineered collapse where they are setting the country up for “The Great Taking” where they have changed the laws in all 50 states where the financial custodians (stockbrokers, pension managers, etc.) can KEEP your assets in a financial calamity. Are the organized crime bankers setting up a great collapse where they are going to try to hang on to both what they stole with fractional reserve dollars AND what they steal in a collapse?by Nick LichtenbergThe U.S. national debt has surged past $38 trillion, according to the U.S. Treasury Department, just two months after surpassing previous forecasts to reach $37 trillion in August. This means the federal debt rose by $1 trillion in a little over two months, which the Peter G. Peterson Foundation calculates is the fastest rate of growth outside the pandemic.Continue readingFlorida Bill Would Require Medical Examiners to Include Recent Vaccination History When Investigating Sudden Deaths of Infants, Childrenby Brenda Baletti, Ph.D.This article was originally published by The Defender — Children’s Health Defense’s News & Views Website.A Florida lawmaker wants to legally require medical examiners to report recent vaccinations in all cases involving the sudden death of an infant, child or young adult.Florida Sen. Ileana Garcia on Tuesday introduced Senate Bill 188, which would amend existing Florida law by expanding the responsibilities of medical examiners when completing autopsies for sudden deaths, particularly in young people.If passed, the bill will require examiners to review and document the deceased child’s immunization and medical records and report all vaccines or “emergency countermeasures” administered 90 days before death to the national Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID) and Sudden Death in the Young (SDY) Case Registry, following protocols established by national health agencies.Continue reading38 Percent of Home Builders Cutting Prices, 68 Percent Offer Incentivesby mishtalk.comThe Freddie Mac average 30-year mortgage rate peaked at 7.62 percent in October of 2023.

Each battery has eight missiles on mobile trucks. This setup allows for quick deployment and fast strikes. The US Military is deploying the first missile battery.The LRHW is a road-mobile and air-transportable weapon system, armed with missiles that can travel at speeds in excess of 3,800 miles per hour, with a reported range of 1,725 miles. It communicates with the Army’s command and control networks via the Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System.The LRHW system consists of Army ground support equipment—one battery operations center (BOC), four transporter erector launchers, a BOC support vehicle and up to eight All-Up Rounds plus Canister. The LRHW leverages a Navy-designed missile (a two-stage booster and the Common Hypersonic Glide Body (CHGB)) packaged in an Army canister.The real difference with today’s hypersonic weapons is that they combine multiple features that in the aggregate make them very hard to shoot down. Speed, maneuverability (unpredictability) and flight at relatively low altitudes (as compared to ballistic missiles) make modern hypersonic weapons survivable and more likely to reach the intended target. Existing missile defenses have a very low chance of intercepting.Continue readingInflation: Slowly the Middle-Class Diesby Mises Wire•Dann E. KroegerThat is where we are today. The Federal Reserve has used its tools to lock inflation into our lives for some time to come. For most citizens, our major challenge today is to fight the rise in prices for consumables that matter most to us: food, housing, clothing, and transportation.Over the past 5 years, the government’s official measurement—the Consumer Price Index (CPI)—shows a cumulative increase of about 20 percent. A visit to the store by any consumer, however, tells a much different story. We see price jumps much more than the 20 percent CPI. It is common to see some items jump 30 percent or more, and that continues in 2025.Frank Shostak, in his article “Inflation Is Not Price Increases. Inflation Causes Price Increases,” states, “Despite its popularity, the idea of a consumer price index (CPI) is flawed. It is based on the view that it is possible to establish an average of prices of goods and services, which is not possible.” The article continues, “Inflation is not caused by the actions of private citizens, but by the government: by an artificial expansion of the money supply required to support deficit spending.”Continue readingUnfettered and Unaccountable: How Trump is Building a Violent, Shadowy Federal Police Forceby J.

Were they helpful?When Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers stormed through Santa Ana, California, in June, panicked calls flooded into the city’s emergency response system.Recordings of those calls, obtained by ProPublica, captured some of the terror residents felt as they watched masked men ambush people and force them into unmarked cars. In some cases, the men wore plain clothes and refused to identify themselves. There was no way to confirm whether they were immigration agents or imposters. In six of the calls to Santa Ana police, residents described what they were seeing as kidnappings.Continue readingHuman Respect in One Lessonby harmonyandprosperity.orgTheft and violence always reduce happiness, harmony, and prosperity. Always.That’s a principle. Whenever we can repeatedly observe a cause and effect relationship in nature and state it as a testable formula, we have a principle. It’s like gravity. You can threaten to drop a bowling ball from the 20th story of a building, and before you do it, we can not only predict that it will fall to the ground but also tell you how fast the ball will fall.Theft and violence always reduce happiness, harmony, and prosperity. Always.Everyone is always pursuing happiness. Our actions are designed to make us happier.Some actions are for immediate gratification, such as enjoying an ice cream cone, and some acts are for long-term gains, like going to college. Happier now or happier later, either way, we’re pursuing happiness.Continue readingVery Soon, ICE Will Know Exactly Where You Are All the Timeby Ellie Quinlan HoughtalingImmigration and Customs Enforcement will soon be tracking cell phone data.The immigration law enforcement agency has bought access to an “all-in-one” surveillance tool that gives it updated location data from hundreds of millions of phones, according to ICE documents obtained by 404 Media. ICE reportedly prefers the service because it also peels information from social media accounts.Redacted documents make reference to two products, both produced by the contractor Penlink. They are known as Tangles and WebLoc. Both were created by an Israeli company called Cobwebs, which merged into Penlink in 2023. ICE has reportedly spent upwards of $5 million for access to the software, Forbes reported last month.Previous attempts to monitor consumers’ location data for immigration enforcement were found to be illegal. A sweeping records request by the ACLU in 2022 found that DHS had obtained more than 336,000 location data points across North America by scraping app user data on hundreds of millions of phones during Donald Trump’s first term.Continue readingThe Apha-Gal Syndrome Is Unproven and Is a Globalist Tool in the War on Meatby Dr. Sam BaileyAlpha-gal syndrome is said to be a food allergy that develops after a tick bite, causing allergic reactions to red meat and other mammalian products. Dr. Sam Bailey explains the history and story behind this new ‘disease’ is really a tool for globalist agendas. According to experts, the ticks causing the disease have changed their patterns due to climate change. The World Economic Forum has been gaslighting us that consuming meat is endangering the planet due to climate change and claimed that beef alone was responsible for 25% of greenhouse emissions in 2010.The disease started when some people reacted negatively to the cancer drug Cetuximab. Researcher Thomas Platts-Mills was researching why Cetuximab caused allergies in some when he was bitten by a tick and developed alpha-gal allergies himself. Dr. Sam commented that it was a remarkable coincidence that a researcher who was being paid by a pharmaceutical company would come up with this idea and then he himself was bitten by a tick.Continue readingHe Co-Founded Wikipedia, Now He Says The Site Needs A Radical Changeby Tyler DurdenAuthored by Jan Jekielek and Lawrence Wilson via The Epoch Times,Wikipedia, a popular online encyclopedia millions of people treat as an authoritative source of information, is systemically biased against conservative, religious, and other points of view, according to the site’s co-founder, Larry Sanger.Larry Sanger, co-founder of Wikipedia and former philosophy professor, among stacks of reference books at a library in Columbus, Ohio, on March 26, 2007. Kiichiro Sato/AP PhotoSanger, 57, who now heads the Knowledge Standards Foundation, believes Wikipedia can be salvaged either by a renewed emphasis on free speech within the organization or by a grassroots campaign to make diverse viewpoints heard.Failing that, Sanger said, government intervention may be required to pierce the shell of anonymity that now protects Wikipedia’s editors from defamation lawsuits by public figures who believe the site portrays them unfairly.Continue readingCh 6: Statistical Coding System Designed To Measure Eugenicsby ZoweCHAPTER 6THE CODE FOR COVID-19 was announced as U07.1. 1 Code instructions for its use are an exception to the coding guidelines. U07.1 is a virus identifier code. Virus identifier codes are not permitted to be reported as a primary diagnosis. The intention for the U07.1 was as a primary diagnosis. The only other virus codes with that exception were those Dr. Fauci had been working on at the NIH: Zika and HIV.2 I found this anomaly suspicious. U07.1 also didn’t require any diagnostic testing, only the physician’s written statement. Reporting other diseases requires clinical documentation in addition to the physician’s statement.When this code came out, hospitals had just been forcibly bankrupted. Bonuses were available for using the diagnosis code. All healthcare institutions enforced the same mandates and protocols, without exception. The public health officials that controlled the coding system were all working together, and it was clear to me that the coding system was designed to enable the manipulation of health statistics at the expense of patients’ lives.Continue readingAI Not A Reliable Source Of News, EU Media Study SaysBy AFP – Agence France PresseArtificial intelligence assistants such as ChatGPT made errors about half the time when asked about news events, according to a vast study by European public broadcasters released Wednesday.The mistakes included confusing news with parody, getting dates wrong or simply inventing events.The report by the European Broadcasting Union looked at four widely used assistants: OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Microsoft’s Copilot, Google’s Gemini, and Perplexity.Overall, 45 percent of all AI answers had “at least one significant issue”, regardless of language or country of origin, the report said.One out of every five answers “contained major accuracy issues, including hallucinated details and outdated information.”Of the four assistants, “Gemini performed worst with significant issues in 76 percent of responses, more than double the other assistants, largely due to its poor sourcing performance”.Continue readingOpenAI launches AI browser Atlas in latest challenge to GoogleBy Juby Babu and Krystal HuAtlas browser challenges Google’s Chrome dominanceAtlas offers AI features like content summarization and task automationAnalysts see ad competition riskOct 21 (Reuters) – OpenAI on Tuesday unveiled ChatGPT Atlas, a long-anticipated artificial intelligence-powered web browser built around its popular chatbot, in a direct challenge to Google Chrome’s dominance.The launch marks OpenAI’s latest move to capitalize on 800 million weekly active ChatGPT users, as it expands into more aspects of users’ online lives by collecting data about consumers’ browser behavior. It could accelerate a broader shift toward AI-driven search, as users increasingly turn to conversational tools that synthesize information instead of relying on traditional keyword-based results from Google — intensifying competition between OpenAI and Google.Continue readingAcetaminophen: Not So Safe After Allby Anthony Colpo“Acetaminophen is one of the safest drugs around,” claims a September 25 Nature article, one of many written in the wake of the recent White House announcement linking the drug to autism1.The Nature claim is nonsense. Far from being one of the safest drugs, acetaminophen is a leading cause of poisoning hospitalizations.Also known as paracetamol, it is sold under numerous brand names, including Tylenol, Panadol, Excedrin, and, to the displeasure of yours truly, Calpol.I just typed “acetaminophen toxicity” into PubMed; it returned 6,927 results.By way of comparison, I also typed “ephedra toxicity” into the PubMed search field; it returned only 148 results.Those of you whose squatted and benched your way through the 1990s will remember ephedra, a herb that contains ephedrine. Ephedra has a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine, where it is known as Ma Huang. Ephedra has thermogenic and anorectic (appetite suppressant) properties, and its thermogenicity is enhanced when taken along with caffeine. Unlike most fat loss supplements, the ephedra+caffeine combo has proven itself effective in clinical trials2345.Continue readingRethinking Cardiovascular Disease Treatment Methodsby Dr. Joseph MercolaCurrent treatments for heart disease fail to address root causes. Stents and bypass surgery only restore blood flow temporarily without tackling underlying endothelial dysfunction and inflammation driving heart diseaseDespite their ability to lower cholesterol, statins have limitations. While these drugs lower LDL cholesterol by 25% to 35%, they don’t address oxidative damage or rebuild vessel health, leaving underlying inflammatory processes unchangedExcess linoleic acid (LA) from vegetable oils fuels heart disease. Modern diets contain 7.2% LA, as opposed to 2.8% a century ago. This creates mitochondrial dysfunction and dangerous oxidized LDL cholesterol formationReducing LA intake shows measurable cardiovascular benefits. Limiting LA to under 5 grams daily reduces inflammatory markers like hsCRP by 15% and IL-6 by 10% within weeksContinue readingBig Food’s new front group exposed: Americans For Ingredient TransparencyBy Food BabeThere is something you urgently need to know. All of the progress we’ve made in in the last few months–with states passing laws that will soon ban and label harmful chemicals from our food–is now in serious jeopardy.Big Food & Chemical corporations have been quietly orchestrating their next move behind the scenes…And now they’ve made a big play.They just launched a new group posing as a consumer-advocacy campaign for ingredient transparency, but its real goal is to block states from banning food additives. (1)This name sure sounds nice on paper, which was very clever on their part – and goes hand in hand with their mission to pull the wool over the eyes of the American public and undo all of the grassroots work that we have been doing.The goal of this group is to undermine all of the Governors who have bravely enacted state legislation to get chemicals out of our food.Continue readingLow Interest Rates Don’t Have the Stimulus the Economy Cravesby Thomas EddlemIn the 2006 Mike Judge movie Idiocracy, the dumbed-down human population five-hundred years into the future have replaced water in drinking fountains with the salty sports drink “Brawndo,” and have even begun to water farm crops with Brawndo. Facing a nationwide famine as a result of repeatedly salting the crop fields, time-traveling twenty-first century slacker Joe Bauers suggests that the future-world dimwits use water for the crops rather than Brawndo. “But Brawndo’s got what plants crave,” the dimwitted White House advisors reply, echoing the official corporate marketing line repeatedly, “It’s got electrolytes.”The movie is a warning about the dangers of blindly accepting the official propaganda line, not thinking critically, and not doing any of your own research. And I can’t help but see this movie scene every time someone tells me that lower interest rates stimulate the economy. “But lower interest rates have got what the economy craves,” they say. “It’s got stimulus.”Continue readingDigital Prison Break: 100 Tactics to Escape the Surveillance StateBy Reinette SenumIt has finally arrived: The dreaded Digital ID. It has already been rolled out in various forms throughout 140 countries and is fast approaching U.S. shores.On October 13th, 2025, our very own California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law dubbed the Digital Age Assurance Act, AB 1043.If Newsom and California lawmakers have their way, the law will take effect on January 1, 2027, requiring people setting up new smartphones, tablets, and computers to provide their age or birthdate. Device and app makers must sort users into age brackets and provide these details to app developers, who will be held responsible for compliance. For older devices and software set up before 2027, there’s a grace period until July 1, 2027, for compliance to fully ramp up.CALIFORNIA PUSHBACKAlthough this law drew full support from tech giants like Google, Meta, OpenAI, and Snap — who I’m sure are smacking their digital lips over this one — it has spurred significant pushback from other arenas. Major Hollywood studios, including Amazon and Netflix, lobbied against AB 1043, arguing that device-based age verification could cause confusion when multiple family members share profiles, thus potentially undermining user experience and privacy.Continue readingNEW STUDY: 91% of Moderna mRNA Shot Recipients Develop Cardiovascular Side Effects with Measurable Arterial DysfunctionBy Nicolas Hulscher, MPHA new peer-reviewed paper from Taipei Medical University has reported that 91% of Moderna mRNA-1273 recipients developed cardiovascular side effects during the observation period—within one week of receiving the Moderna mRNA-1273 vaccine.Using advanced spectral pulse-wave analysis, the researchers detected statistically significant post-vaccine changes in arterial pulse amplitude and phase — patterns consistent with arterial dysfunction and increased vascular stiffness.These were objective, quantifiable changes in how the arteries function — the same alterations seen in hypertension, reduced vascular elasticity, and early endothelial stress.The study measured the radial pulse wave — the tiny pressure wave your heartbeat sends through your arteries — in 203 adults before and after Moderna vaccination.Continue readingExclusive: California Medicaid Provider Pays Parents Hundreds of Dollars to Vaccinate Their Kidsby Suzanne Burdick, Ph.D.This article was originally published by The Defender — Children’s Health Defense’s News & Views Website.One of the largest Medicaid health plans in the U.S. is paying low-income parents hundreds of dollars in gift cards to vaccinate their children, an investigation by The Defender found.Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP) — which serves about 1.6 million people in Southern California — gives parents a $200 gift card when their baby receives a flu shot and the rotavirus series of shots by age 1, according to its 2025 Medi-Cal Member Incentive FAQs sent to all of IEHP’s general practitioners, family practitioners and pediatricians.IEHP also gives a $50 gift card when a 12- or 13-year-old receives the first dose of the HPV vaccine, and an additional $150 gift card if the pre-teen completes the two- or three-dose series by age 13.Continue readingAutism Symptoms Could Be Added to U.S. Vaccine Injury Programby Amber BakerOn July 28, 2025, Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said he planned to overhaul the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP. In September, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) announced it may add certain symptoms of autism to the official list of vaccine side effects eligible for compensation.1The VICP was established by Congress under the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) as an alternative to bringing a lawsuit against DPT, MMR and polio vaccine manufacturers to protect the childhood vaccine supply in the U.S. after manufacturers threatened to leave the country with no childhood vaccines unless they were shielded for all vaccine injury lawsuits. Although in 1986 Congress gave the vaccine companies partial liability protection for failure to warn (a legal responsibility taken over by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) through publication of Vaccine Information Statements (VIS), Congress did not give vaccine companies a liability shield for product design defect—failure to make a vaccine less reactive. In 2011, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that vaccine manufacturers should not be held liable for product design defect in the manufacture of vaccines licensed by the government.Continue readingHow To Make Coconut Milk Ice Cream (3 Flavors!)By Food BabeAs you probably know by now, I don’t have any diet related dogmas (except avoiding industrial chemicals, pesticides, toxins and other additives in food), but I do follow my body’s intuition and listen to it very closely when deciding what to eat. I have noticed not eating dairy products on a daily basis has improved the way my body looks and feels tremendously. I used to be one of those gals that SWORE by greek yogurt for snack time… and now I can’t even think of having that stuff. My skin is brighter and less sensitive, my stomach feels flatter and my general energy soars when I pay attention to the amount of dairy products in my diet. But, if there’s one thing that gets me off my routine – it’s ice cream! I love it! And that’s why I’m always looking for ways to enjoy dairy free desserts and it’s why I created this recipe so I can enjoy ice cream all the time without sacrificing how I feel, the way I look or my energy level.Continue readingOzempic Literally Came From a Monster – And It’s Not AloneBy Jess CockerillThe toxic bite of a Gila monster can kill a human, but a specific ingredient in the cocktail of the lizard’s venom is the reason we have glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy.At the end of the 20th century, endocrinologist Daniel Drucker was looking for a hormone similar enough to the human gut’s GLP-1, which would have similar appetite-suppressing and blood sugar-regulating qualities, without being broken down by the human body so quickly.Drucker had read about the work of endocrinologist John Eng, gastroenterologist Jean-Pierre Raufman and biochemist John Pisano, who had sequenced the proteins in Gila monster (Heloderma suspectum) venom and found two that looked like human GLP-1.Drucker and his team from the University of Toronto acquired a Gila monster from the Utah Zoo’s breeding program to dissect for further research. This work confirmed that the lizard species’ unique genes produce a protein, Exendin-4, that fit the bill, mimicking GLP-1 while hanging round in the human body for far longer.Continue readingPivotal Research On Creatine Finds Foundational Applications Way Beyond The Gym – Including Brain, Bone, And Healthy Agingby Tyler DurdenThere’s new science out on creatine monohydrate that reveals it’s way more than just a performance enhancer for athletes. In fact, it’s pretty amazing for a wide variety of applications throughout all stages of life. If you already take creatine, you know it’s great for increasing muscle strength, size and performance. But did you know it even helps maintain lean tissue strength without exercise? It’s also powerful when it comes to cognition and memory – including early-stage Alzheimer’s and sleep-deprived college students.The new studies (linked directly below) found Creatine to:Support muscle and function even without exercise. In studies of older adults and immobilized limbs, creatine users maintained more lean tissue and strength than non-users. One trial found older adults taking creatine for 32 weeks preserved leg-press and chest-press strength despite periods of reduced activity.Continue readingEU Declares War On Its Own Membersby NextBigFutureEXEC SummarySpaceX’s $17 billion acquisition of EchoStar’s AWS-4 and H-block spectrum enables broadband DTC (direct to cellphone) with 20x throughput over prior low-band spectrum from T-mobile.This mid-band S-spectrum offers excellent propagation characteristics but phones will need new chips to work with the spectrum band.The phones will have new chips to support the specific bands, antenna changes and better power management.DTC is an emerging service and we are going from it barely works in 2025 to a mature mostly 4G service in 2028. In 2025, SpaceX Starlink is the only continuous coverage service with basic texting, voice and low speed data service. All providers will build out coverage and reliability in 2026. I am projecting the DTC transition to 4G speed and services as satellites and satellite optimized phones are deployed in 2026-2028.Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsFree Cities Conference: Returning to Prague – October 31st to November 2nd, 2025 – EventCHD 2025 Conference – November 7th-9th – Austin, TXFreedom Under Natural Law Conference – February 21st & 22nd 2026, On-lineBitchill is a week-long retreat in Próspera, Roatán, taking place November 18–25, designed for Bitcoiners, entrepreneurs, and free spirits who value freedom and community.
