5 Meme FRIDAY

PLUS… Larken Rose on the Fragile Fascism of Donald TrumpDear Subscribers,I usually don’t send Five Meme Friday out on a Saturday night, but since the top story is the article I wrote on the new award-winning documentary An Inconvenient Study, I wanted to get it out on a night that many folks might be able to see the film. The documentary covers the largest ever study of vaxxed vs. unvaxxed kids, where vaccinated kids have 453% more neurological issues than unvaccinated kids and 57% of vaccinated kids have been rendered chronically ill (asthma, eczema, allergies, autoimmune diseases, developmental delays, motor impairment, and more!). There are at least five more studies that I have reviewed (the film claims even more) that show the exact same thing. I have linked to many of them in the article and have reproduced the entire Henry Ford study in this Daily News article as well as added it to the “vaccines” folder in The Liberator, our uncensorable flashdrive full of evidence of “government” illegitimacy and criminality like this. What better example of criminality than mandating brain-damaging “vaccines” for the population you are tax-farming for over half their income in overt taxes, covert taxes, and inflation. Speaking of the Liberator, when I was writing the article I went to link to the PDF version of RFK Jr. most famous article ever: Deadly Immunity from Rolling Stone Magazine in 2006 that proves the US “government” (CDC, FDA, WHO, etc.) have known that the “vaccines” have been causing neurological issues in kids since 2000. It had mysteriously disappeared from the Dropbox. I put it back and linked it in the article but this is why the Flashdrives are the gold standard!In other news, the US version of my “pro-modified” meme on the REAL US Political Spectrum from last week’s top article: The Fake Left-Right Paradigm – What is the REAL Political Spectrum the Monopoly Media is Hiding? has been going viral so we decided to create versions for all the other countries that are running the same scam on their populations. Here is a version that Paul Hellier, the host of Fair Food Forager podcast, helped me create for Australia. If you can help us create one for your country, please email me at Ev******@**********ty.org or better yet use the contact form on the website as e-mail doesn’t always get through…Top Stories of the WeekAn Inconvenient Study – New Documentary Exposes Vaccinated Kids have 453% More Neurodevelopmental DisordersHenry Ford Birth Cohort: Vaxxed vs. Unvaxxed, Reported Vaccinated Kids Had 453% More Neurodevelopmental Disorders — 57% Rendered Chronically IllA 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…Videos of the WeekLarken Rose on the Fragile Fascism of Donald TrumpEtienne Note: Confirmed! I am in Memphis, TN which is a fraction of the size of Los Angeles and where 219 federally deputized officers and somewhere around 150 National Guard troops. The Memphis Police Chief summed it up: “Memphis is not DC. DC is 68 square miles. Memphis is 340 square miles. DC had 1500 National Guard in 68 square miles. We might get to 200, if that,” They have, allegedly, been here for over a week… It has been completely invisible… We have not seen anything resembling an occupying force. Granted they are probably in the ghetto vs. our nice suburban neighborhood in East Memphis… But they are invisible and we have heard no one discussing it at all… We don’t watch the news propaganda so it is invisible there as well..AoLF Board of Advisor Member Matt W: – I thought Rose might broach the subject of the push for the completion of the satellite (Star Link Et al.) and autonomous drone network tech (Palantir/Anduril Et al.) capabilities…This as we watch the horrific fast prototyping and testing on live humans in Ukraine and Gaza.

The Northrop Grumman-Colt launcher is being developed primarily to meet the U.S. Army’s requirements for a future Precision Grenadier System (PGS), a program that emerged after the XM25 was canceled.Rylan Harris, Director of Strategy and Business Development for Northrop Grumman’s Armament Systems business unit, provided an update on the company’s work related to PGS during a press briefing today. TWZ, as well as other outlets, were in attendance. Currently, the new grenade launcher from Northrop Grumman and Colt is an 11-and-a-half-pound semi-automatic design that feeds from five-round box magazines and looks like an oversized rifle.Continue readingThe Impossible Mathematics of Vaccine Salvationby UnbekomingThis essay relies entirely on the rigorous analytical work ofDenis Rancourt, Joseph Hickey, and Christian Linard, whose meticulous examination of mortality data and counterfactual claims has exposed fundamental impossibilities in the official COVID-19 narrative. Their courage in pursuing uncomfortable truths despite professional risks represents science at its finest – following evidence wherever it leads. Any errors in interpretation or presentation in this essay are mine alone and should not reflect on their exemplary research.On October 10, 2024, Dr. Peter Hotez sat before Congress and delivered testimony under legal obligation to tell the truth. He declared that COVID-19 vaccines saved 3.1 or 3.2 million American lives and averted 18 million hospitalizations. Without them, he claimed, the United States would have seen 4 million deaths instead of “1-plus million deaths.” These numbers, he assured the committee, came from studies by his “colleague and friend Alison Galvani at Yale.”Continue readingAluminium in Vaccines Is Harmfulby Brownstone InstitutePeter GotzscheIt has been surprisingly difficult to get an answer to a simple and highly relevant question: Is aluminium in vaccines harmful? After having studied the best evidence we have, the randomised trials, in great detail, I conclude that the answer is yes.Like lead, aluminium is a highly neurotoxic metal. We will therefore expect vaccines containing aluminium adjuvants to cause neurological harms if the aluminium enters the nervous system in neurotoxic amounts.The aluminium in the adjuvant is important for eliciting a strong immune response in non-live vaccines and their efficacy is related to their toxicity at the injection site.1-3 Immune-reactive cells engulf particles of aluminium adjuvant and distribute their load throughout the body, including to the brain, where they are killed, releasing their contents into the surrounding brain tissue where they can produce an inflammatory response.Continue readingAmerica First? Hegseth Announces Qatar To Build Air Force Facility Deep In US Heartlandby Tyler DurdenDefense Secretary Pete Hegseth just over a week ago delivered his America First rah-rah higher-military-standards and end-of-wokeness speech to some 800 Generals and Admirals gathered at Quantico. That’s all well and good – and a very welcome and refreshing break from the Biden era… but now he pivots to allowing the Gulf Arab country of Qatar to establish a foreign base in the heart of the United States(!?)…“Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Friday announced a finalized agreement that will allow the Qatari Emiri Air Force to build a facility at the Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho,” writes CBS on Friday based on the Pentagon announcement.Until now, there is no foreign military base on American soil – only “joint training programs” or facilities where foreign pilots might have a semi-permanent presence under a US training program.Continue readingTrump Urges Pardon For Netanyahu At Knesset: “Cigars & Champagne, Who The Hell Cares?”by Tyler Durden“Hey, I have an idea Mr President: Why don’t you give him a pardon? Give him a pardon, come on,” Trump said, pointing at Netanyahu during his big Monday speech before the Knesset in Jerusalem, upon the historic release of all remaining Israeli hostages by Hamas.Trump stated: “By the way, that was not in the speech, you probably know.” He said this as pro-Netanyahu lawmakers gave Trump a long standing ovation, which actually happened more than once during and after the somewhat lengthy address. When Trump talked about the idea of a pardon, Knesset members shouted: “Bibi! Bibi!”Pointing at Herzog, President Trump said: “But I happen to like this gentleman over here, and it just seems to make so much sense.”That’s when he called Netanyahu “one of the greatest” wartime leaders, adding: “And cigars and Champagne, who the hell cares?”Continue readingJames Corbett: Your Guide to a World On Fire (2025 Edition)by The Corbett Reportby James Corbettcorbettreport.comOctober 12, 2025If you’ve been paying any attention at all to world events, you’ll have noticed something remarkable recently. Fiery, youth-led protests are threatening the government in country after country.Identified as “Gen Z Protests,” these youth uprisings have been sweeping the world in recent months, from Madagascar to Peru to the Philippines to Nepal to Indonesia.What on earth is going on here?As it turns out, I’m not the only one asking this question.After noting this worldwide protest phenomenon in a recent edition of New World Next Week, I made reference to my 2019 article, “Your Guide to a World on Fire.” Then, lo and behold, I received this comment from Corbett Report member angie.j:James, is there an update to this 2019 post (”World on Fire”) for 2025?Continue readingChronicle of a Collapse Foretold: The Paradox of World Trade Center 7 and the 9/11 NarrativeBy Kristen GaspariniAs we near the 24th and 25th anniversaries of 9/11, the time is right for soberly re-examining the official narrative of the event that defines our century, not by getting lost in a maze of speculations, but by paying attention to a paradox that can be analyzed with logic and common sense: that of World Trade Center Building 7, and the government report on how it fell.World Trade Center 7 (WTC7) was a 47-story, steel-framed skyscraper which, in less than seven seconds, collapsed symmetrically, pulverizing into its own footprint at 5:20 p.m. on 9/11. It stood between Vesey and Barclay Streets, 370 feet north of WTC1, the second Twin Tower that fell. WTC7 was not hit by an airplane. Its collapse, although stranger, received dramatically less media coverage than the Twin Towers in the days following 9/11, so much so that a majority of U.S. citizens are unaware that a third building fell on that day.Continue readingBitcoin crash proves crypto is a rigged casinoBy John RapleySomething strange happened in crypto-land this weekend. On Friday afternoon at around 4:30 pm, a large “whale” — a player big enough to noticeably move asset prices — began placing shorts on crypto. Short orders occur when traders borrow an asset, which they immediately sell, before buying it back at (they hope) a reduced price, repaying the loan and then pocketing the difference.Minutes later, President Donald Trump announced a 100% tariff on Chinese imports. The price of Bitcoin then plunged by 4%, whereupon most of the short positions were closed. Whoever was doing the trading walked away with a profit of $192 million. Nice work if you can get it.Of course, everyone else in the crypto space lost around $200 billion among them. The immediate suspicion was that someone in the administration knew what was coming and decided to make a fast buck.Continue reading“We Want Our Entitlements”: In November, Food Stamp Money Will Run Out For 42 Million Very Angry Americansby MichaelWhat do you think is going to happen when tens of millions of impoverished Americans suddenly stop getting their food stamp money from the government? It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that a lot of them will be extremely angry. Unfortunately, if the current government shutdown stretches into the month of November, we really will be facing a nightmare scenario. Vast numbers of extraordinarily frustrated people will be demanding their money, and if they don’t get it I have a feeling that we could see rioting and violence.I haven’t written much about the government shutdown because I was hoping that it would be resolved quickly.Sadly, that has not happened.Neither the Democrats or the Republicans are budging, and House Speaker Mike Johnson is warning that we are potentially facing “one of the longest shutdowns in American history”…Continue readingThe Jab That Keeps on Giving…300% Increase in ALS(Motor Neuron Disease) Drug sales reveals Singapore’s Hidden Health Horror Story!By Aussie17A big part of my job back in Big Pharma (for those who don’t know, I worked in three of the top 5 pharmaceutical companies, plus one in the top 20) was spinning a good story around sales numbers for the bosses. Nail the narrative, and you’re golden for another year. Botch it, and you’re packing your desk. I’ve been knee-deep in drug sales data for close to 20 years, so I know when something smells off—like a trend that’s too steady to suddenly go haywire.That’s why what I’m about to share has me—and a bunch of my ex-pharma buddies—losing sleep. It’s a slow-burn health crisis that’s slipping right past the mainstream headlines, but it’s real, and it’s building.I even had to double-check the numbers and run the trend lines myself (I’ll walk you through that in a sec). We’re talking about a spike in sales for Riluzole, the go-to drug for treating ALS, or Motor Neuron Disease (MND) as it’s sometimes called. This isn’t some flashy new med; it’s a 30-year-old staple that’s been as predictable as clockwork for decades.Continue readingSingle-seater eVTOLs duke it out for air race supremacyBy Paul RiddenWhat could be better than strapping yourself into your own personal electric flyer? Racing with some buddies of course, and that’s coming closer with the unveiling of the Jetson Air Games concept recently. Strap in, and join us for a demo vid.The Jetson ONE multicopter sees a pilot surrounded by a simple spaceframe, which takes to the air courtesy of eight props mounted to four arms in X configuration, and zipping to a reported top speed of 63 mph (102 km/h).We’ve been following the progress of Jetson Aero for a few years now, from its official launch of the ONE through development milestones and on to production. While it’s sure to be a ton of fun hopping to work in one of these things, racing them promises to take your breath away.It’s not a new idea. Australia’s Airspeeder has been racing electric flyers for a while now, but so far the sporty electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft haven’t had anyone in the pilot’s seat. Meanwhile, Jetson founder Tomasz Patan has become quite the capable flyer, introducing huge racing pylons last year for pilots to twist and turn around along a short course.The concept entered multiplayer mode back in May with the “world’s first Jetson Race“ – where company CEO Stéphan D’haene emerged victorious. After a quick pit stop helping Poland’s GOPR with a mountain rescue operation, the team made its way to Bentonville, Arkansas, for UP Summit 2025 and the latest flight demo.Continue readingICE tickets Chicago man with legal residency $130 for not having his papers on him: ‘It’s not fair…I’m a resident’by Gregory Royal Pratt, Chicago TribuneRueben Antonio Cruz was sitting with a friend in Rogers Park when ICE agents pulled up onto the street.The immigration officers stopped their truck and went straight after them Thursday, Cruz told the Tribune.“They asked us if we have papers. I said I do but I don’t have them on me,” Cruz, a 60-year old man with heart problems originally from El Salvador, recalled in Spanish.The agents stood Cruz up, put him in their truck, drove around in circles, and asked questions, he said.Where was he born? What is his name? Who is his mother? Who is his father?“I told them, they are dead,” Cruz said. The agents said they needed the information anyway so they could look him up in their databases. Eventually, the agents verified that he is, in fact, legally in the country. And they let him go.Continue readingSam Altman says ChatGPT will soon sext with verified adultsEtienne Note: Weaponized time-wasters and cultural debasement. Chat GPT is one of those companies with a 666 hidden in their corporate logo.by Emma RothOpenAI will soon allow “erotica” for ChatGPT users who verify their age on the platform. In an X post on Tuesday, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the company will add support for mature conversations when it launches age-gating in December.“As we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our ‘treat adult users like adults’ principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults,” Altman writes. Earlier this month, OpenAI hinted at allowing developers to create “mature” ChatGPT apps after it implements the “appropriate age verification and controls.”OpenAI isn’t the only company dipping into erotica, as Elon Musk’s xAI previously launched flirty AI companions, which appear as 3D anime models in the Grok app.Continue readingTrump’s Gaza Peace Plan… A Wedding Without a Bride and GroomBy Larry C. JohnsonDonald Trump garnered some major political optics yesterday as he signed his Gaza Peace Plan, with a raft of European, Asian and Arab leaders sitting in the cheap seats watching the spectacle. But who has a signing of a peace agreement when neither of the two parties to the conflict are present? This is more than a bad joke… this is a scam. I can understand holding a funeral for the dearly departed even if the corpse ain’t present, but what took place Monday in Sharm El-Sheik was more like a royal wedding without a bride or groom present… Hell, neither chose to attend even via video conference.I can guess why Bibi didn’t show… The majority of those attending had recently granted official recognition to Palestine as a state and Bibi did not want any photos of him shaking hands with the lot. Israeli officials, speaking to the Hebrew press, continue to insist that there will never be a Palestinian state.Continue readingSCAN IT American travelers will be fingerprinted after flights as new ‘border’ law hitting 29 countries comes into forceby Chris Bradford ,AMERICANS heading to a raft of European destinations will have to comply with new border measures that are coming into force.And, it means travelers will be forced to have their fingerprints taken.This is because the European Union’s new Entry and Exit System has now come into effect – October 12.It affects travelers who are heading to 29 European countries for visits up to 90 days within a 180-day period.The new system monitors when non-EU citizens enter and leave the Schengen area.Travelers will scan their passports and have a photograph taken.The data is stored on a digital database.Travelers may have to answer basic questions about their journey.Not all EU countries are members of the Schengen agreement, and some countries that are in the Schengen zone are outside the EU.Continue readingNo amount of alcohol is safe, at least for dementia risk, study findsby Richard SimaFor years, the common wisdom and science was that a little bit of alcohol wasn’t bad — and even beneficial — for your health: A toast to moderation.But new research published in BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine suggests that even light alcohol consumption can increase dementia risk.he finding comes from data of more than 550,000 adults ages 56 to 72, as well as genetics information from 2.4 million study participants. It adds to evidence that even small amounts of alcohol can be harmful to our health, including increasing the risk of cancer or disrupting sleep.Excessive alcohol consumption — more than 12 drinks per week — and alcohol use disorder have long been linked to dementia, an umbrella term for different types of progressive cognitive impairment, including Alzheimer’s disease.Continue readingFULL TEXT of the Henry Ford Health Care “Inconvenient Study”: Impact of Childhood Vaccination on Short and Long-Term Chronic Health Outcomes in Children: A Birth Cohort StudyImpact of Childhood Vaccination on Short and Long-Term Chronic Health Outcomes in Children:A Birth Cohort StudyLois Lamerato, PhD¹, Abigail Chatfield, MS¹, Amy Tang, PhD¹, Marcus Zervos, MD²˒³Continue readingGeofenced for Jesus? – Israeli Propaganda Campaign Targets US Churchesby Reinette SenumI’ve always said there was a reason Jesus was a storyteller, because he understood the power of story. And right now, we’re witnessing the perfect demonstration of this ancient truth playing out in real-time across America’s evangelical churches, where foreign operatives are infiltrating the most sacred spaces in our communities, not to deliver souls, but to deliver propaganda.Following my recent piece about Netanyahu handsomely paying American influencers thousands of dollars per post to flood social media with pro-Israel content, we now have the smoking gun evidence that this information war was officially launched on September 26th, 2025, just two weeks after Charlie Kirk’s assassination that landed him in what I suspect is a witness protection or worse, his grave. Not only did the state of Israel geo-tag everyone who attended Charlie Kirk’s memorial service, but they’ve now infiltrated America’s churches to begin psychological propaganda warfare against congregations who are simply trying to get closer to God and find inspiration in their faith.Continue readingThe Los Angeles Metro: Unacceptable Crime, High Costs, and Unnecessary ExpansionsBy Baruch FeigenbaumAs the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA), or LA Metro, reaches its thirty-two-year anniversary, this investigation of the organization’s operations has found that Los Angeles is served by a dangerous and costly public transportation system. For those reasons, Independent Institute is awarding LA Metro the eighteenth California Golden Fleece© Award, a dishonor given to California’s state or local agencies or government projects that swindle taxpayers or break the public trust. This report offers key recommendations for upgrading LA Metro’s service delivery.LA Metro’s mission is to “provide high-quality mobility options that enable people to spend less time traveling” and to “enhance communities and lives through mobility and access to opportunity.”[1] Based on those measures, the transportation system fails. LA Metro performs poorly in even the most basic areas, including safety, cleanliness, and service quality. Every transit agency must be minimally proficient in each of these areas. It is also financially reckless, allocating billions of dollars in countywide taxes to build unneeded rail lines and to mismanage its existing system. LA Metro should not be permitted to continue status quo operations. A detailed accounting of its problems demonstrates the need for fundamental reforms to the system.Continue readingThe BritCard Psyop: What Is True Digital ID in the UK?by Iain DavisThe proposed rollout of the so-called BritCard is a bait-and-switch psychological operation (psyop). The evident purpose is to frame the debate about digital ID in the UK by fundamentally misrepresenting what digital ID is.People often say “if you don’t have anything to hide what’s the problem?” There is no rational argument for allowing people you don’t know and have never met to have any power to control your life. The “nothing to hide” mantra is based on the historically illiterate assumption that you will never have anything to fear from authority. To offer this argument as a reason to adopt digital ID is so naive we might call it stupid.Of course, the likes of Trilateralist Starmer and Larry Ellison’s buddy Tony Blair will be delighted if we agree to a BritCard or a similar single, government issued identity app. But the whole point of arguing for and against the adoption of the mythical BritCard is to lead people to believe that if they reject the BritCard they will have defeated digital ID. And that is simply not true.Continue readingThe UK “Government” Can Now Take Money Directly from Your Account: What You Need to KnowBy g.calderHMRC, the UK government tax department, can now tell your bank to send them money from your account – without your knowledge – if they believe you owe them. This new power means they can directly access funds held in current accounts, savings, and cash ISAs. What’s worse is that this process will be automated and appeals will only be possible after the transfer is made. HMRC has a shocking track record of customer service, and its processes are infamously riddled with errors – so what happens when they wrongly take thousands from you because of their broken system? Is it even your money anymore?The mechanism, known as the Direct Recovery of Debts (DRD) was legislated after 2014-2015 consultation. It was paused due to backlash and kept quiet through the Covid years, but has just resurfaced once again.Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsMises Institute Supporters Summit 2025 – October 16th-18th, 2025 -Wise Traditions Conference – The 25th Annual Weston Price Foundation Conference – Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, 17-19 October 2025Resist Digital IDs – Mass Non-Compliance Protest – Saturday, October 18th – 1:00 PM – Central LondonSDFA / CFA – LIVESTREAM, Saturday, October 18th, 2025Free 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.

The project aims to be one of the most ambitious development and sustainability projects in the Caribbean, with planned investment running into the billions of U.S. dollars. Destiny is led by entrepreneur and early crypto adopter Olivier Janssens, a major investor in X, SpaceX, and Tesla. Early indications suggest that the zone will have a high degree of autonomy and will be operated by a for-profit, commercial entity. Profits from the venture will be shared with the people of Nevis — including 10% to the government, 10% to the island’s sovereign wealth fund, and a direct 5% distribution to Nevisian citizens. Destiny is expected to have a strong focus on green spaces and emphasize harmony with the natural environment. The project will feature low-rise architecture, tree-lined neighborhoods, and open parks, creating a safe, family-oriented environment designed to attract residents, entrepreneurs, and visitors alike. We encourage you to visit the Destiny website and view Olivier’s introductory video to find out more. This will certainly be a project to watch!

PLUS… The Fake Left-Right Paradigm – What is the REAL Political Spectrum the Monopoly Media is Hiding?Dear Subscribers,My apologies for getting Five Meme Friday out late… Julie and I drove to my other hometown Fort Worth, Texas this weekend for my high school reunion. I think part of the reason that I have the courage to fight they organized crime “government,” when many don’t, is that I grew up among REAL cowboys in Fort Worth, Texas. The largest sports team at my high school was the rodeo team and Taylor Sheridan, of Yellowstone fame, was a high school buddy… We caught the Texas State Fair and the Texas-OU game, the biggest rivalry in college sports (Fun Fact I learned at the Game: Bevo, the UT Longhorn, poops and pees in an OU bucket!) and I took Julie to the Fort Worth Stockyards to better understand the cowboy culture of a town famous as the #1 destination for trail rides where the cowboys would (and still do) hit the bars, brothels, and honky tonks after being on trail for weeks at a time. It was cool to see my old friends and it is always heartening to find out that many of them are appreciative of my work exposing the organized crime “government” and monopoly media! The big story this week is a new article I wrote exposing the fake left-right paradigm and WHY organized crime’s monopoly media lies about and hides the REAL political spectrum. I have some e-mails out to folks to create other versions for other countries where we take out the Democrats, Republicans, RINOs, and Tea Party and replace them with Labor and Tories, and/or the specifics of each country. If you are in another country and your organized crime media is running the same scam, then e-mail me the specifics for your country to Ev******@**********ty.orgThis gets swapped out for a 13th man bucket when they play Texas A&M (Sorry Craig… I couldn’t resist ;-)Check out Hegseth wearing the completely indoctrinated religion of Statism that we expose in my new book: To See the Cage is to Leave It – 25 Techniques the Few Use to Control the Many – Do you think he is an indoctrinated “true believer” OR is he “running game” on the population? Top Stories of the WeekThe Fake Left-Right Paradigm – What is the REAL Political Spectrum the Monopoly Media is Hiding?If you were to listen to any of the major news networks, political shows, political commentators or state university college professors, the American political spectrum is a continuum with Communism on the far left, then Socialism as you move to the right, then what the news calls “Liberals” or “Progressives.”Then… “Moderates” in the middle…As you move to the right of the middle… There are “Conservatives”, “Libertarians” and “Fascists” on the far right.This is obviously completely false because libertarians have nothing to do with fascism, and fascism is not representative of a desire for more personal and economic freedom that the jump from conservatism to libertarianism represents…So what is the REAL political spectrum in the US… AND… Why does the monopoly media and monopoly academia misrepresent the political spectrum?Continue Reading and Check Out Even More Visualizations of the REAL SpectrumVideos of the WeekLowkey: Gaza Ceasefire EXPOSED: How Israel Lost The WorldEveryone’s favorite conscious artists and political commentator Lowkey breaks down the scam of Trump’s Gaza Ceasefire (That Isra-hell is already violating).

The case highlights a growing trend: organs being harvested from euthanasia victims.A report from The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and The Ottawa Hospital detailed the procedure. “Here we report the first case of successful cardiac transplantation after MAiD,” the medical team wrote. And, more ominously: “Provision of MAiD and death determination occurred in keeping with Canadian standards. Death was declared within seven minutes of initiating the MAiD protocol.”The Canadian was suffering from ALS (or Lou Gehrig’s disease), and had indicated his desire to donate his organs, but this is a “landmark case of a heart transplant following euthanasia.” According to the National Post: “The dead donor’s heart was removed, attached to a special machine that ‘reanimates’ or restarts the heart to keep blood flowing through the organs while keeping them warm, and then transported to Pittsburgh, where the transplant took place.”Continue readingHouse of South Carolina Judge Criticized by Trump Administration Burns Downby Miranda JeyaretnamPolice are investigating the cause of a fire that burned down the home of South Carolina Circuit Court judge Diane Goodstein, who had reportedly received death threats for weeks related to her work.State law enforcement is investigating the house fire on Edisto Beach, which began at around 11:30 a.m. E.T. on Saturday, sources told local news outlet FITSNews. Goodstein was reportedly not at home at the time of the fire, but at least three members of her family, including her husband, former Democratic state senator Arnold Goodstein, and their son, have been hospitalized with serious injuries.According to the St. Paul’s Fire District, which responded to the scene, the occupants had to be rescued via kayak. Law enforcement has not disclosed whether the fire is being investigated as an arson attack.Continue readingBlackRock & Blackstone Are Buying Local Power Companiesby Paul DraguGlobalist equity firms are scooping up local energy companies across the country — and it looks like they’re just getting started. The official reason is to invest in America’s artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure.The buyouts are already triggering pushback and anxiety at the local level. The Associated Press recently reported that “private equity giants like BlackRock and Blackstone are buying local utilities to power AI-driven data centers, sparking ratepayer and regulator concerns.”Worries about rising power bills have been mounting in tandem with the buildup of AI data centers around the country. Earlier this year, the AP reported:Rising power bills are “something legislators have been hearing a lot about. … More people are speaking out at the public utility commission in the past year than I’ve ever seen before,” said Charlotte Shuff of the Oregon Citizens’ Utility Board, a consumer advocacy group. “There’s a massive outcry.Continue reading‘Military-Style’ ICE Raid On Chicago Apartment Building Shows Escalation in Trump’s CrackdownEtienne Note: This is the standing army the so-called “Founding Fathers” warned us about and simultaneously stuck us with….by Crime, News, dnyuz.comAt around 1 a.m. on Tuesday morning, armed federal agents rappelled from helicopters onto the roof of a five-storey residential apartment in the South Shore of Chicago, according to witnesses and local reporting. As they worked their way through the building, they kicked down doors, threw flash bang grenades, and rounded up adults and screaming children alike, detaining them in zip-ties and arresting dozens, they said.The military-style raid was part of a widespread immigration crackdown in the country’s third-largest city as part of the Trump Administration’s “Operation Midway Blitz,” which has brought a dramatic increase in federal raids and arrests.Continue readingThe Great Alzheimer’s Scam and The Proven Cures They’ve Buried for Billionsby A Midwestern Doctor• Alzheimer’s disease is commonly thought to result from abnormal plaque buildup in the brain that gradually destroys brain tissue. As a result, almost all Alzheimer’s research has been directed toward eliminating amyloid, even after the basis for much of this work was shown to stem from fraudulent research.•As such, despite decades of research and billions of dollars spent, this model has completely failed to produce useful results. The costly “groundbreaking” Alzheimer’s drugs only slightly slow dementia progression—at the expense of causing brain bleeding and swelling in over a quarter of those treated.Continue readingBibi has been Giving Money to Hamas. An Insidious Intelligence OperationBy Prof Michel ChossudovskyConfirmed by Israeli media. “Not Fake News”. Bibi has been giving money to Hamas“Hamas was treated as a partner to the detriment of the Palestinian Authority to prevent Abbas from moving towards creating a Palestinian State. Hamas was promoted from a terrorist group to an organization with which Israel conducted negotiations through Egypt, and which was allowed to receive suitcases containing millions of dollars from Qatar through the Gaza crossings.” (Times of Israel October 8, 2023, emphasis added)According to Netanyahu:“Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas,” he [Netanyahu] told a meeting of his Likud party’s Knesset members in March 2019. “This is part of our strategy – to isolate the Palestinians in Gaza from the Palestinians in the West Bank.” (Haaretz, October 9, 2023, emphasis added)Continue readingUS warned about possible attack on its embassy in Caracas, Venezuela saysBy Reuters, investing.comCARACAS (Reuters) -Venezuela’s President Nicolas Maduro said on Monday his government had warned Washington of a “false flag operation” by “extremist sectors of the local Venezuelan right” to plant explosives at the U.S. Embassy in Caracas.A false flag operation is when an act is carried out in such a way that a different party appears responsible.The White House and State Department did not immediately reply to requests for comment.Venezuela’s National Assembly President Jorge Rodriguez originally reported the plot on Sunday in a message on his Telegram account, saying that the alleged plans had been reported to the United States through three different channels.He added that a European embassy was also alerted about the plans but did not specify which one. Venezuela severed relations with the United States in 2019, and U.S. diplomatic personnel left the headquarters that year.Continue readingTether Expands Hard Asset Strategy with More Bitcoin, Gold, and Landby Will IzuchukwuTether has purchased another 8,888 BTC, increasing its total on-chain holdings to 86,335 BTC. At current prices, that’s worth over $9.7 billion, according to CoinMarketCap.The company, however, claims its real stash is much larger. Tether reports holding over 100,000 BTC along with 50 tons of gold. It has also committed 15,000 BTC into Bitcoin XXI, a treasury management firm focused on Bitcoin strategies.This steady accumulation shows how Tether is doubling down on Bitcoin as a reserve asset. While most stablecoin issuers remain tied to U.S. Treasuries, Tether is openly diversifying into scarce digital and physical stores of value.Beyond Bitcoin, Tether has been moving aggressively into traditional hard assets. The company owns 70% of Adecoagro, a major agricultural group in South America.Continue readingWhy Libertarians, Conservatives, and Anarchists Should Get Alongby Christopher Cook[ Part 1 | Part 2 ]How many political ideologies have there been over the last 150 years?In all likelihood, a series of familiar words has begun flashing through your head. Communism. Fascism. Socialism. Conservatism. Libertarianism.Perhaps you drilled down a little further: Democratic socialism. Progressivism (America) and social democracy (Europe). Paleo-conservative, social conservative, fiscal conservative.Maybe you can describe some of the differences between Italian fascism and German Nazism, or between Marxism-Leninism and Maoism.Maybe you can list every single flavor of the libertarian rainbow, from most to least austere: Anarchist, minarchist, Objectivist, Public Choice School, Austrian (Misesian), Austrian (Hayekian), Chicago School…And so on.Every one of these ideological categories can be further subdivided, and there are plenty of others I didn’t mention. But what if I told you that at one level of analysis, there aren’t dozens of ideologies, but only two?Continue readingAmazon’s Ring Adds Facial Recognition to Home SecurityEtienne Note: Please see our article: Is Amazon A Mason? Making the Case that AMAZON is Part of Organized Crime´s Control of Perception Program at https://artofliberty.org/amason/by Sri Lanka GuardianAmazon’s Ring is introducing facial recognition for the first time on its home security doorbells and cameras, allowing users to identify friends, family, and neighbors. The feature, called “Familiar Faces,” will be optional for device owners and available starting in December, according to The Washington Post.While the technology aims to alert users when recognized individuals approach their homes, privacy advocates warn it could affect anyone who passes within range of a Ring device without consent. “They are not consenting to this,” said Calli Schroeder, senior counsel at the Electronic Privacy Information Center.Continue readingBook Review: Still Psyched Out by Kelly Patricia O’Mearaby The Solari ReportKelly Patricia O’Meara was one of the first courageous investigative journalists to document the dangerous drugging of our children with psychiatric medications, the absence of science to support doing so, and the relationship between highly drugged children and school shootings.Kelly’s articles for the Washington Times’ Insight Magazine started with “Guns & Doses” and ultimately led to her first blockbuster book, Psyched Out: How Psychiatry Sells Mental Illness and Pushes Pills that Kill, published in 2006. It was Kelly who first warned me in the 1990s about the drugging of our children. I remember sitting at Kelly’s dining room table and showing her how to calculate how much the large cap pharma stocks went up in value for each child they got on the “Ritalin treadmill.”Continue readingOSHA Admits It Told Healthcare Employers Not to Report COVID Vaccine Injuriesby Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D.The federal agency that oversees workplace safety exempted healthcare employers from reporting workers’ adverse reactions to mandated COVID-19 vaccines, according to a healthcare industry whistleblower who alerted The DefenderThe Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) issued the directive on June 28, 2021, to encourage vaccination during the COVID-19 pandemic.The directive also stated that OSHA, a division of the U.S. Department of Labor, would not track workers’ COVID-19 vaccine adverse events — even though it acknowledged that the vaccines may cause injuries that would require employees to take time off work.OSHA continued to track reactions to other vaccines.A Labor Department official confirmed for The Defender that OSHA didn’t track COVID-19 vaccine injuries, and said those policies remained in place until February 2025.Continue readingRanked: The Top 50 Countries by Central Bank ReservesBy Marcus LuCentral bank reserves are considered critical for global economic stability, helping countries meet balance of payments obligations and buffer against economic or geopolitical shocksThe top 10 countries collectively hold $9.4 trillion in currency and gold reserves, accounting for over 60% of the global totalCentral bank reserves can be considered as a country’s financial shield, consisting of foreign currencies, gold, and other liquid assets. These reserves play an important role in stabilizing currencies and navigating financial crises.In this graphic, we visualize the 50 countries with the most central bank reserves, providing insight into the balance of global finances.The data for this visualization comes from The World Factbook. It compares the value of reserves (foreign exchange and gold) held by the world’s central banks as of 2024.Continue readingALL VACCINES Are WORTHLESS POISONS — Dr. Mike YeadonBy gregwyatt.comFormer Pfizer VP Michael Yeadon: “If you inject tiny doses of foreign protein into a person separated by two weeks, they become violently and permanently allergic to that substance.”“These diabolical people have included components in all jabs that your children have been given and you may have received so they sensitize you to every single basic food item.”Former Pfizer VP Michael Yeadon describes during an interview with Oracle Films posted to Rumble on July 3, 2025 research conducted by retired pharma R&D executive Sasha Latypova and writer and paralegal Katherine Watt that reveals why **all “vaccines”** are nothing more than poisons.As it turns out, “vaccines” do exactly the opposite of what it’s claimed they do—instead of preparing one’s immune system to fight off a specific pathogen, they sensitize a person to whatever’s been injected, priming them to have an anaphylactic reaction if they have a subsequent encounter with the injected material. Even if the injected material is normally benign—e.g., whey protein or peanut oil.Continue readingWaste of the Day: Corrections Earn Overtime, Vacation in One DayEtienne Note: Another example of organized crime “government,” this time at the State level in Illinois, completely robbing the population they are allegedly “serving.”By Jeremy Portnoy, RealClearInvestigationsTopline: Overtime pay is meant for employees working more than eight hours per day, but the Illinois Department of Corrections has found a way to circumvent that rule. Employees are using paid time off to stay home during work hours and then coming in later the same day to work overtime, according to a report from the state auditor released on Sept. 23.Key facts: Employees are more than happy to gain extra overtime hours and earn 1.5 times their regular salary, but the practice of “shift swapping” violates the Department of Corrections’ training manual, in the opinion of the state auditor. The department gets billed for overtime twice: first to pay an officer to cover for the employee on paid leave, and then again when the employee on leave returns later in the day.Continue readingMusk Says “Far More Than $100 Million” US Taxpayer Funds Funneled Into NGOs Fueling Chaos; Trump Briefed On Dark-Money NetworksBy Tyler DurdenUpdate (1010ET): Let’s recap what unfolded during Wednesday afternoon’s Antifa roundtable at the White House, hosted by President Trump.Several journalists shared firsthand accounts of being attacked by Antifa activists, but the real fireworks came from Seamus Bruner, Director of Research at the Government Accountability Institute, who briefed the president and his cabinet on a complex network of dark-money NGOs and activist groups fueling unrest nationwide via the permanent protest-industrial complex.“We have identified dozens of radical organizations, not just the decentralized Antifa organizations, but dozens of radical organizations that have received more than $100 million from the Riot Inc investors,” Bruner told Trump.Elon Musk chimed in on X, commenting on a video featuring Bruner’s public briefing to the president about the dark-money NGOs, saying, “Way more than $100M of US taxpayer money.“Continue readingPublic Enemies: Government Bureaucrats as Societal ParasitesBy Thomas DiLorenzoThis article is adapted from DiLorenzo’s lecture at the Our Enemy, the Bureaucracy Mises Circle in Phoenix on Saturday, April 26.Economists have been studying and writing about government bureaucracy for quite a long time. Ludwig von Mises became the first “modern” economist to write a book on the subject with his 1944 Bureaucracy. The public choice school of economics, founded by James Buchanan and Gordon Tullock, among others, has produced a huge literature on the economics of bureaucracy, much of which is complementary to Mises’s pathbreaking work.This literature has produced many easy-to-understand insights about the essence of governmental bureaucratic behavior. For one thing, it is vastly different from decision-making in the marketplace. In the market people voluntarily “vote” with their dollars to express their preferences. There is a market feedback mechanism whereby if one pleases his customers he prospers, if one displeases his customers he fails. In government, by contrast, we are basically told: You need this, this, this, this, and this, and if you do not pay for it, we will make you live like a dog in a cage for several years. That’s called being sentenced to prison for tax evasion. There is nothing voluntary about it.Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsMises Institute Supporters Summit 2025 – October 16th-18th, 2025 – Wise Traditions Conference – The 25th Annual Weston Price Foundation Conference – Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, 17-19 October 2025Resist Digital IDs – Mass Non-Compliance Protest – Saturday, October 18th – 1:00 PM – Central LondonSDFA / CFA – LIVESTREAM, Saturday, October 18th, 2025Free 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-lineDubFX, Woodnote, and Grant “Prezence” Ellman are going to be touring Europe Sept-December.

PLUS… Venezuela reports foiling “False Flag Attack” on US Embassy in Caracas as US Prepares for InvasionDear Subscribers,The organized crime “government” appears to be going for maximum “Divide and Conquer” while simultaneously building up a goon force of ICE agents, national guard, and others willing to use violence on the population. Immigration is the engineered reason du jour… I say engineered because I believe the organized crime “government” threw the 2020 election to Biden so he could take the brunt of the criticism for “The Covid” and leave the borders wide open to set the stage for the exact militarization that we are seeing today. The organized crime bankers saved their other puppet, Donald Trump, who has more gravitas with conservatives, military, and law enforcement to be the populist strong man capable of leading the domestic army that the “founding fathers” both warned us about and simultaneously set the stage for by sticking us with a “government.”ICE is now offering $50,000 signing bonuses for their masked goon squad while ratcheting up military-style operations within the United States. Last week they rappelled onto an apartment building in Chicago from a helicopter and swept the building tossing flash bang grenades while shooting a promotional video.Drugs are the stated reason, but the organized crime “government” could break the back of the cartels tomorrow just by legalizing drug use… Which isn’t really a crime and where prohibition causes many more problems than it solves. Drug prohibition also allows the intelligence agencies to make billions while creating the police state you see around us.The goal is divide and conquer, building a goon force, and normalizing military-style operations and militarized federal primacy in the supposedly independent States as the country is slowly bankrupted by weaponized inflation and confiscatory taxes and tariffs.Our other top story is the US is preparing for a war with Venezuela and today (Monday) the Venezuelan government is warning that it foiled a false flag attack on the US embassy in Caracas that could have been used as a manufactured excuse for such an invasion.The Art of Liberty Foundation is organizing resistance by widely exposing the illegitimacy and criminality of “government.” The solution is a peaceful and orderly dissolution of the organized crime federal “government” and rolling everything back to the individual States until their operations can be rolled back and privatized as well.We hope you will support us on our mission by becoming a sponsor of the Foundation at https://artofliberty.org/sponsorship-program/ We have some great premiums to say: THANK YOU!Top Stories of the WeekUS military ‘preparing to seize ports & airfields’ in Venezuela as Trump declares full-scale war on drug cartelsTrump’s memo to Congress grants him wartime powers to strike, kill, and detain cartel fighters without trialEtienne Note: Today (Monday, October 6th) the Venezuelan government is warning that it foiled a false flag attack on the US embassy in Caracas that could have been used as a manufactured excuse for such an invasion.AMERICA’S military is preparing to seize ports and airfields in Venezuela, it’s reported – as Donald Trump declared a full-scale war on drug cartels.The President stunned Washington by formally declaring the US is in a “non-international armed conflict” with the Latin American “terrorist organisations”.

The press release promised lower drug costs and a revival of U.S. manufacturing. President Donald Trump touted that Pfizer would cut Medicaid drug prices for low-income Americans and sell new medicines at a “most-favored-nation” price — but only in exchange for tariff relief.In reality, it appears to be a multi-billion dollar effort to entrench Pfizer’s failed gene-transfer platforms for decades to come.The deal secures a $70 billion commitment to U.S. R&D — a down payment on Pfizer’s next wave of gene-based products:Cancer “vaccines”Obesity injectionsExpanded vaccine portfolio (flu, RSV, bird flu, more)Chronic disease biologics in inflammation & immunologyPfizer itself spelled it out:“With this agreement in place, Pfizer can fully focus on delivering the next generation of cures… in areas like oncology, obesity, vaccines, and inflammation and immunology.”Continue readingGlass Bottles Contain More Microplastics Than Plastic Bottlesby Dr. Joseph MercolaA French government study found that glass bottles contain five to 50 times more microplastics than plastic bottles, mostly from the painted caps that seal themResearchers discovered that the microscopic plastic fragments in glass-packaged drinks matched the chemical makeup of the bottle cap paint, not the glass itselfWhen bottle caps were pre-cleaned with filtered air and ethanol, microplastic levels dropped by over 60% — showing this problem is avoidable with simple changesMany people now consume roughly 5 grams of plastic per week — the weight of a credit card — from foods, drinking water, and even from breathing polluted airMicroplastics accumulate in your organs, especially the brain, where they trigger inflammation, obstruct blood flow, and accelerate cognitive decline and neurodegenerationContinue 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.

Because of this, disasters continually occur from “hot vaccine lots” being unleashed onto the public. Remarkably, as the years have gone by, there has been less and less accountability for this (e.g., previously public investigations were held and people went to jail whereas now government tends to keep the hot lots on the market and deny there is a problem).•In 1967, an eminent bacteriologist wrote a book detailing many forgotten vaccine disasters under the belief (he shared with many of his anonymous colleagues) that unless his profession was honest about the dangers of vaccination, the mistakes which led to those disasters would keep on repeating.•Many of the disasters he detailed related to an excessively dangerous vaccine lot being released onto the market. Remarkably, many of the disasters he detailed mirrored what occurred in the decades that followed (e.g., this article discusses the documented DPT and anthrax hot lots which caused a tsunami of injuries in infants and veterans).Continue readingTrump’s NSPM-7 Labels Common Beliefs As Terrorism “Indicators”by Ken KlippensteinWith the mainstream media distracted by the made-for-TV drama of James Comey’s indictment, Trump has signed a little-noticed national security directive identifying “anti-Christian” and “anti-American” views as indicators of radical left violence. Called National Security Presidential Memorandum 7, it’s being referred to as “NSPM-7” by administration insiders.“This is the first time in American history that there is an all-of-government effort to dismantle left wing terrorism,” Trump’s homeland security advisor Stephen Miller said, referring to the issuance.To the extent that the major media noticed the directive at all, they (even C-SPAN!) incorrectly labeled it an “executive order,” like this week’s designation of “Antifa” as a domestic terrorist organization.It’s hard to overstate how much different NSPM-7 is from the over 200 executive orders Trump has frantically signed since coming back into office.Continue readingThe Post Office Has Become An Embarrassmentby Quoth the RavenThis week I landed myself smack dab in the middle of a real-life example of just how piss-poor of a capital allocator the government is compared to the free, for-profit market.Usually, when I want to mail something, I walk a block or two to either the UPS Store or the FedEx store. Both are pretty similar: fairly busy (especially around the holidays), offering print and copy services, and staffed with employees who—while not saints—are at least competent enough to get your package labeled, shipped, and tracked with as little fuss or bullshit as possible.The price is slightly costly, but at least the service gets the job done.Cut to this week, however, when I had to mail something to a PO Box. Turns out you can’t do that through UPS or FedEx, which meant I was grudgingly forced to venture into the local post office. Always crowded. Always understaffed. Always a line out the door.Continue readingIgnore Ukraine (Trump Is), Pay Attention to Venezuelaby Larry C. JohnsonI think this picture captures the essence of US foreign policy with respect to Ukraine and Syria. What do you think?Trump’s Truth on Russia and Ukraine spread like a California wildfire across social media in the last 24 hours. Supporters of Ukraine were elated… at least initially. I got a nice shout out today from my friend, Alexander Mercouris, who agreed with my assessment that Trump’s Ukraine/Russia Truth was actually a piece of sophisticated sarcasm. But Alexander did a better job than me in explaining the nature of this sarcasm. So, back at you Alexander. Brother Mercouris explained that Trump, rather than debate Kellogg and the neocons who wanted to push the Russia-is-losing narrative, essentially said to them, “You’re right,” and then took that claim to a logical conclusion. Rather than argue with Kellogg and the neocons he said:Continue readingNew fastest car on the planet Is 2,977 HP Chinese EV that beats Bugatti to record speeds of 308.4 mphby Joseph BroganBUGATTI’S claim to production car fame has not only been matched, but surpassed by a Chinese EV maker, which also took the title of fastest EV in the process.Although there are a few asterisks to address, the feat has both introduced a new name to the top of the mass manufacturing mountain, and set a new production car speed record.Behind the wheel for the lap was German race driver Marc Basseng, a former FIA GT1 World Championship and Clio Cup Germany winner.This eclipses the previous record set by the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ prototype in August 2019 by a winning margin of 3.6 mph over the Bugatti’s 304.8 mph, driven by Le Mans winner Andy Wallace.The U9X clocks in with 2,977 hp, more than double the 1,288 hp the anything-but-basic U9 model has, from four electric motors with each powering its own wheel.Continue readingDenis Rancourt – What All-Cause Mortality Tells us About the Scam of “The Covid”by Canary in a Covid WorldBy Denis Rancourt, PhDThis guest post comes from Dr. Denis Rancourt — one of our Canaries. Denis contributed the final chapter (There Was No Pandemic) of Volume 1, Canary in a Covid World: How Propaganda and Censorship Changed Our (My) World. In that chapter, as in this essay, he forces us to confront uncomfortable truths about mortality, power, and the narratives we are told. Today he expands on those themes with insights drawn from his years of research with CORRELATION Research in the Public Interest. His data-driven analysis of all-cause mortality during COVID is widely accepted, and the evidence is difficult to ignore. When we first spoke with Professor Rancourt, his work was not widely known. Yet, upon reviewing the data, we found his analysis difficult to refute. We are pleased to see that his research is now widely cited.Continue readingOrganized Crime: The Unvarnished Truth about Government — Thomas J. DiLorenzoby Liberty Advocate, ironcountynews.orgThomas J. DiLorenzo writes from the Austrian-economics tradition (think the Mises Institute). Expect:Mises on why planners can’t “price” things they don’t own,Hayek on why useful knowledge is scattered among regular people,Rothbard on the state as a monopoly that uses force,Public Choice (Buchanan/Tullock) on how politicians and agencies follow incentives just like everyone else.His baseline test is simple: coercion vs. consent. Markets are voluntary—buyers and sellers can walk away. Government, even when smiling, ultimately relies on rules you can’t refuse.It’s a bundle of essays, not one long argument. Topics bounce from regulation and money to unions, antitrust, welfare, policing, war, and federal politics. The repeating claim:A lot of “public service” behaves like organized crime: protection rackets, cartels, and shakedowns—made respectable by law, ceremony, and slogans.Continue readingVietnam Closes Another 86 Million Bank Accounts, A Week After Thailand Froze 3 MillionBy SamuelVietnam is planning to close 86 million unverified bank accounts by the end of the year under biometric laws.Vietnam is preparing to close 86 million bank accounts that fail to meet biometric verification standards. The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) confirmed that the move will take effect by September.The decision comes as part of an effort to secure the country’s financial system, curb fraud and push toward a cashless economy.Vietnam had around 200 million bank accounts as of last year. However, after biometric checks, only 113 million personal and 711,000 organisational accounts were found to have been valid.This means that those who fail to update records will be shut down permanently.The SBV said accounts without verified biometric data are highly vulnerable to scams. In other words, closing them is necessary to protect users and prevent abuse by fraud rings. Recent police reports showed cases where AI-driven facial spoofing helped criminals launder money through fake accounts.Continue readingWhy Libertarians Don’t Get Along, Part 2by Christopher Cook via The Advocates for Self-GovernmentThere is a joke in libertarian circles:Q: What is the difference between a minarchist and an anarchist?A: About six months.The deepening of my classical liberal views, from mainstream conservatism to austere libertarianism, required a great deal of study, conversation, and mind-bending exploration. All told, it took about 15 years. The last portion of that journey, however—from minarchist to anarchist—really did take just about exactly six months!There is definitely something to that joke.Once I made that final swim to Anarchist Island, a whole new journey had begun. What exactly had I become? I had to study more. And what happened next is pertinent to our discussion today.Being a sociable member of a social species, my first stop was to seek out others like me—in this case, in an online group of anarcho-libertarians. What do you think happened next?Continue readingTrump Expands Federal Powers Under “Domestic Terrorism” Directiveby Veronika KyrylenkoLast Thursday, President Donald Trump issued National Security Presidential Memorandum 7 (NSPM-7), titled “Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence.”The directive orders federal agencies to build a far-reaching law enforcement strategy to investigate and dismantle what it calls “sophisticated, organized campaigns of targeted intimidation, radicalization, threats, and violence.”“Heinous assassinations and other acts of political violence in the United States have dramatically increased in recent years,” the memorandum states. It cites the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, attacks on a healthcare executive and Justice Brett Kavanaugh, riots that caused “over $2 billion in property damage nationwide,” and shootings at an ICE facility in Texas.Continue readingThe BritCard Digital ID Psyopby Iain DavisApparently, in order to be able to work in the UK, we will all be forced to adopt digital ID—the mandatory so-called BritCard. There is absolutely no public appetite for this, as the more than 2 million and rising (at the time of writing) signatures to the online petition to stop it demonstrates.Of course, online petitions don’t make any difference to governments, but at least they illustrate to us that government propaganda, such as the IPSOS poll that alleges 57% of the UK public want digital ID, is garbage. Though given IPSOS enormous number of government contracts, including its contract to assist in the design of the BritCard, willingly fulfilling its propaganda role is understandable.Proudly announcing mandatory digital ID at the Global Progress Action Summit, Keir Starmer said:Continue readingThe American Academy of Pediatrics — Mining Children for Profitby Dr. Joseph MercolaThe American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies, influencing policies that promote more medical interventions for children while reducing parental controlThe AAP’s top priority is to eliminate parental authority over childhood vaccination decisions, replacing it with state or provider controlMajor child health issues like rising obesity, increasing autism rates, and chronic illness prevention are absent from the AAP’s top 10 prioritiesThe AAP uses rare measles outbreaks to justify removing personal and religious vaccine exemptions, despite measles mortality already being near zero before mass vaccination beganIgnoring preventive strategies, the AAP’s approach sets children up for lifelong dependence on pharmaceutical products rather than building lasting healthContinue readingFluoridation, Brought To You By… The Sugar Industryby Alan MacleodThe provocations increased last week, as the Navy entered Venezuelan waters, raiding a Venezuelan fishing boat and detaining its crew. And on Tuesday, the U.S. carried out a strike on another small vessel, killing at least three people. Trump justified the attack, claiming that after the attack, “big bags of cocaine and fentanyl” were “spattered all over the ocean.”Tren de Aragua has become something of an obsession for the Trump administration. On his first day in office in January, Trump designated the Venezuelan gang a “foreign terrorist organization,” claiming that they have sown “violence and terror” throughout the Western hemisphere, and “flooded the United States with deadly drugs, violent criminals, and vicious gangs.”In March, he invoked the 1789 Alien Enemies Act to declare that the United States had been “invaded” by Tren de Aragua. And in August, he put a $50 million bounty on the head of President Maduro, claiming that he directed both Tren de Aragua and the Cartel de los Soles (the Cartel of the Suns). This, the announcement stated, made Maduro “one of the largest narco-traffickers in the world.”Continue readingThe Wheels of Government CheeseAuthored by Javier Simon via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the way we complete tasks, and it’s becoming a part of our everyday lives.

Politicians trying to stoke both their fundraisers and their bases for support are already rehearsing their lines for their kabuki performance.From the theater critic’s corner, the upcoming episode looks to be even dumber than the last one. That is really saying something because that episode turned into a total bust. In a sense, the stage show got cancelled before it even opened because Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-NY) and nine others backed down when they realized they stood to lose far more than they could ever win.This time around, they intend to rewrite the script. It’s as if they see a chance to snatch defeat from the jaws of their previous, already almost-forgotten embarrassment.Continue readingWhat You Need To Know About AI ScamsAuthored by Javier Simon via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the way we complete tasks, and it’s becoming a part of our everyday lives.

THE SILENT COLD RAGE AT QUANTICOSometimes a photo says it better than words. The event at Quantico Virginia will go down in history, but not the way Trump and Hegseth expect. The Military at Quantico silently but clearly reacted to this unprecedented event. But not in the way Trump wanted or expected. For Trump it was, in Churchill’s immortal words,“Not the end, it’s not even the beginning of the end, but it is the end of the beginning.”What the Trump Administration faced this morning was two words: COLD REJECTION. Rejection of the Trump Administration to lead the Commanders of the United States Military into the future of 21st Century warfare .The Military may salute them, the military may follow precise written legal orders, but the Military will not follow them into their retreat from the modern world, contracting into the Western Hemisphere like shriveling bullies afraid of the modern world and focus on “reestablishing order” in American cities. It’s quite preposterous.Continue readingObama-Era Mojave Desert Solar Plant Once Hailed As A Marvel Will Close As A Glowing Relicby Tyler DurdenAuthored by Beige Luciano-Adams via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),LOS ANGELES—It is a familiar sight for revelers traveling Interstate 15 from Southern California to Las Vegas: In the final stretches of the Californian Mojave Desert, just before the Nevada border, there is little else interrupting the vast, Martian expanse aside from a near-abandoned border town and this glittering relic of California’s renewable energy boom.A little more than a decade ago, the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System opened to great fanfare, with a $1.6 billion loan guarantee from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)—part of the Obama administration’s push to install green energy production on public lands—and a promise to help California meet its increasingly ambitious decarbonization goals.Continue readingNew Breakthrough Could Bring Holograms to Your Smart Phone and into Daily TasksBy Andy CorbleyUntil now, holograms have been created using lasers, but now researchers have used a new ensemble of components that could unleash this technology on the market.With their ubiquity in science fiction, and carrying the potential to transform smart devices, communication, gaming, and entertainment, holograms would be a major technological advancement, if we could find an easier way of projecting them.A team at the University of St. Andrews have found that ‘Holographic Metasurfaces’ (HMs) and Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) give a simpler and more compact approach that is potentially cheaper and easier to apply, overcoming the main barriers to hologram technology being used more widely.Organic light-emitting diodes are thin film devices widely used to make the colored pixels in mobile phone displays and some TVs. As a flat and surface-emitting light source, OLEDs are also used in emerging applications such as optical wireless communications, biophotonics, and sensing, where the ability to integrate with other technologies makes them good candidates to realize miniaturized light-based platforms.Continue readingAll COVID Vaccines Increase Cancer Risk, New Study Concludesby Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D.This article was originally published by The Defender — Children’s Health Defense’s News & Views Website.COVID-19 vaccines and boosters — both mRNA and non-mRNA — pose an increased risk of six types of cancer and a 27% higher risk of cancer overall, according to a recent South Korean study of over 8 million people.Four South Korean researchers published the report last week as a letter in Biomarker Research, a Springer Nature journal.According to the study, COVID-19 vaccines and boosters are associated with a higher risk of breast, colorectal, gastric, lung, prostate and thyroid cancer, across all vaccine types and age groups.Mainstream medical commentators were quick to dismiss the findings, with MedPageToday describing it as “flawed.” But other medical and scientific experts disagreed.Continue readingIs Substack a Censored Platform?Etienne Note: I am starting to think we were bait-and-switched into Substack where they let our content be shared organically at first to get us on the platform and then began turning up the shadow-banning and censorship: My evidence: 1. We had Substack unsubscribe one of our subscription accounts from receiving e-mails… The account was still technically subscribed BUT the e-mails were turned off. How many of our other subscribers has that happened to as well? Substack plays the same game as Fedbook where in your Substack feed they will tempt you with articles from folks you have NOT subscribed to… Are they trying to move folks to controlled opposition accounts, AI-generated accounts, or time-wasters? I have seen other Substack authors complain about Substack actually changing the e-mail addresses of their subscribers so the account stays subscribed BUT the e-mails are going to a completely different email address… I knew I should have saved that story when it came by… Finally, our growth rate on Substack has stalled and our revenue is not trending down when it was going parabolic… Please consider “Going Paid” since freedom isn’t free!Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsMises Institute Supporters Summit 2025 – October 16th-18th, 2025 – Even’s LibertyWise Traditions Conference – The 25th Annual Weston Price Foundation Conference – Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, 17-19 October 2025Healing Beyond COVID: Vaccine-Induced Cancers & Immune Disorders“ – Saturday, September 27, 2025 – Grand Oaks ResortFree State Bitcoin – DIGITAL ASSETS CONFERENCE – Save the date: October 12th, 2025 at Wentworth by the Sea, NH!Resist Digital IDs – Mass Non-Compliance Protest – Saturday, October 18th – 1:00 PM – Central LondonFree 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-lineThe People’s Reset Conference – January 28th-February1st 2026 – Morelia, MXEarly bird ends August 31st!

These lessons come from building Infinita City (a longevity-focused network society Layer 2), investing through Infinita VC, and serving as both an advisor to and resident in Próspera.Building a real-life jurisdiction is hard. There’s little best practice, no clear playbook, and no repeatable business model. The closest we have is Balaji Srinivasan’s The Network State. Many readers don’t find it very practical, but I think it contains deep, original ideas (I’ll return to them in Part 2). Another reference is Mark Frazier’s Founding Startup Societies, comprehensive, with multiple possible directions, but difficult to distill into a standard practice, especially for a tech-driven approach.To be sure we’re talking about real-life jurisdictions – not a Discord server, a Metaverse project, or an “online city”. There has been a wave of projects that seem to have misunderstood that part. As Balaji puts it: “Online first, land second, but not land never.” Some projects, like Próspera or Ciudad Morazán, started with land. Others, like Balaji’s Network School, began online to prove an alternative. These approaches are somewhat in conflict (more below), and neither is necessarily better – it depends on your starting conditions. In the end, you have to bring it together.Continue readinghttps://www.fsp.org/fall-fest – October 11-13thhttps://blockchainnh.comhttps://freecitiesconference.comThe LiberatorThe Liberator– Our archive of “government” and media criminalityImportant Note: New additions are added to the authoritative Liberator Dropboxes regularly but will not appear in the physical credit card-sized flash drive until we launch the next version.

PLUS… Have You Seen James Corbett’s New Documentary: Dissent into Madness? Dear Subscribers,If you got pulled in by my Subject Line on AIPAC, see the two AIPAC memes below. Russian election interference is a JOKE compared with the organized crime “government” of Israel bribing and installing US politicians. Hundreds of millions spent each year and over $300 billion sent to Israel since 1948… Even with them spying on us and shooting up the USS Liberty… There were 250 US legislators in Israel this month… How brazen can you get..The featured story this week is James Corbett’s superb new documentary: Dissent into Madness – which breaks down how psychology has been and is used to make dissidents seem crazy BUT it is really the political leaders and their followers who meet the text book definition of psychopathy! If you have a friend or family member who thinks you are crazy for not believing in organized crime “government” this will have you grinning from ear-to-ear!Best parts of the documentary for me were learning about the psychopathy of “founding father” Dr. Benjamin Rush, who I had a positive view of for his support of medical freedom, until I learned about his “tranquilizing chair”. Pictures in the article. The best part was James breaking down dozens (hundreds?) of almost completely identical stories from almost every monopoly news outlet “explaining” why people believe in “Conspiracy Theories” like 9-11 and JFK. It’s almost like they are all reading off the same script… Get your popcorn on and throw it on the big screen!I have a little media campaign going on for my new book: To See the Cage is to Leave It – 25 Techniques the Few Use to Control the Many. The image below is my one-pager for podcast and radio talk show hosts. Can you help me forward this along to your favorite hosts? Some shows I’d like to do: Joe Rogan, Patrick Bet-David, Jimmy Dore, Redacted, Kim Iversen, David Knight, Theo Von, Breaking Point, Chris Martensen, Neil Oliver, Sabby Sabs, and Diary of a CEO. If anyone has any “Ins” it would be greatly appreciated!Amazon (A Mason?) has “Stolen the Buy Box” from us. Even though I am the author of To See the Cage is To Leave It AND have copies at Amazon.com ready for shipping (Liberty Literature is our store name) they are buying the book from our distributor (Ingram) and drop shipping from Ingram vs. letting us sell our own book. It sure smells like economic warfare to me. If you liked the book, would you please consider leaving us a review on the Amazon website since so many people use that as a barometer.I just updated this for 2025! Let me know what I forgot?Top Stories of the WeekDissent Into Madness – New James Corbett Documentary on the Weaponization of Psychology vs. DissentJames Corbett knocks the ball out of the park again: “What if the delusions of the dissidents are in fact real? What if their paranoid fantasies are not fantasies at all? In other words, what if it’s not the political dissidents who are crazy, but the politicians?”James Corbett’s new documentary traces how psychology has been used as a weapon against political dissidents, from Soviet “sluggish schizophrenia” diagnoses to early American psychiatric abuse including one of the most prominent “Founding Fathers.”Corbett examines Benjamin Rush, the “father of American psychiatry,” who invented a “disorder” called “anarchia” – defined as having too much love of liberty.Continue reading…Voluntaryist Charity Option of the WeekIn a previous life after I left the “Big 4” think tank I occasionally mention, I slung Internet for global ISPs (DIGEX/Intermedia and Savvis). When I started in the industry at DIGEX, the first person I met (who also started at the same time I did) was an amazing guy named John Ferrandino, he is an ex-professional and D1 soccer player (Hall of Fame at GMU) that remains one of the most charismatic people that I have ever met. He has been the life of every party, dinner and conversation he was ever in. A really superb individual and friend. He was in a tragic accident over a week ago and remains in a coma today after multiple surgeries. He has two kids and was “on the bench” when the accident happened so the worst time to have a tragedy like this befall a family. There is a fundraiser to help him out at https://www.gofundme.com/f/team-dino-support-john-ferrandino-in-the-fight-for-his-life#Voluntaryism for the win!Videos of the WeekDear Bobby, what is REALLY going on?Trump recommendedAvoid vaccines with (neurotoxic) aluminum and mercury and that they are trying to take them out of the injectionsAvoid Hepatitis B vaccine until 12 years-old because it’s a sexually transmitted infection and newborns don’t have sex!Avoid the MMR vaccine and take them separately (one for measles, one for mumps and another for rubella, but in different doctor visits)At least, space vaccines along years, never all in one visit, considering it’s 80 immunizationsAvoid Tylenol during pregnancy and breastfeeding and giving it to the babyNote: Tylenol is acetaminophen, also known as paracetamol, is a non-opioid analgesic and antipyretic agent used to treat fever and mild to moderate pain. It is available over-the-counter under various brand names, including Tylenol and Panadol.

With a Bachelor of Science from Oakland University’s Honors College (2020) and a Master of Public Health in Epidemiology from the University of Michigan (2024), Nic has emerged as a relentless truth-seeker.Since 2023, he has co-authored 17 groundbreaking scientific studies, including lead roles in works like Autopsy Findings in Cases of Fatal COVID-19 Vaccine-Induced Myocarditis and Clinical Approach to Post-acute Sequelae After COVID-19 Infection and Vaccination. His research illuminates the hidden impacts of mRNA technology, particularly on fertility and broader health, empowering individuals to question and act. Nic’s dedication resonates with The Truth Contract’s ethos, grounded in peer-reviewed evidence, he invites us to unite, challenge the status quo, and reclaim agency over our well-being.continue reading…Water is Lifeby Greg ReeseHydrogen bonding is what makes water very unique. It is the force of attraction between the partially positive hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the partially negative oxygen atom of another. When it’s within the temperature range of liquid water, the bonds are constantly breaking and reforming. As it freezes, each water molecule forms four hydrogen bonds and a crystalline structure is created that is less dense than liquid, allowing it the ability to float and insulate the liquid water beneath it. And when heated into vapor, there are no hydrogen bonds, until it begins to cool, and the hydrogen bonds return it to a liquid state.Continue reading…Dr. Sam Bailey Interviews Sally Fallon-Morell, Founder of the Weston Price Foundationby Dr Sam BaileyFrom October the 17th to 19th, 2025 Drs Mark and Sam Bailey will be giving a number of live talks at the Wise Traditions Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah. Unexpectedly, the plan was recently put in jeopardy through a nefarious attack against Dr Sam, the details of which will be made public when matters before the courts are settled. However, the travel to the event has been confirmed and for the first time ever, Dr Tom Cowan, Dr Andrew Kaufman and the Drs Bailey will appear alongside one another in the “Virus Deniers Unite Panel”!Continue reading…DOJ Epstein Investigator: ‘Epstein Was a CIA Asset’ — Says Trump Never Present During Assaults but Protecting Others; Clinton Present “While Rapes Occurred”by O’Keefe Media Group“I’ve interviewed all the victims, There’s never been an instance where Trump was on a plane with these kids and the rapes occured.

European leaders have in recent months repeatedly accused Tehran of refusing to abide by the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action’s terms. A core, repeated claim is the Islamic Republic has collated a uranium stock over 40 times the level permitted under that deal. No supporting evidence for the charge has been provided, and the source of this information isn’t clear.Continue reading“Daily News of The Week”Of Two Minds – The Moral Decay of Debtbyoftwominds.comDebt has moral implications, and in denying this, we’re choosing a rendezvous with NemesisLet’s start with a household analogy. A married couple have four fine children, and since expenses are higher than income, they borrow money in their children’s names to fund their lifestyle and investments. Once the offspring reach 18 years of age, the debt their parents borrowed is theirs to service.The offspring didn’t get a say in how much money was borrowed or how it was spent, but the debt is now theirs to service (i.e. pay the interest) for their entire lifetimes, as the debt is simply too large to pay off with conventional wages.The economy changed, and since wages don’t go as far and costs keep rising, the four offspring borrow in their own children’s names to afford the basics of a middle-class life.The parents are now comfortably retired, drawing on their investments bought with borrowed money. The two generations behind them are now debt-serfs who funded their own lifestyles by borrowing even more money. Since the kind of house their parents bought for 3-times-income is now 6-times-income, the debt required to own a house and fund what is considered the minimum middle-class entitlements is multiples of their parents’ borrowing.Is anyone willing to call this offloading of ever-expanding debt onto future generations wrong, as in morally wrong, or have we lost the vocabulary and ability to declare the offloading of debt as morally disgraceful, a line that should never have been crossed?Continue readingSocial Security retirement age could jump as White House considers optionsBy Daniel MilleA potential increase to the retirement age is under consideration by the Trump administration.Social Security Administration Commissioner Frank Bisignano addressed the matter during a FOX News interview, explaining that many options are being considered.The move is being discussed in part to keep Social Security from reaching insolvency.The Trump administration is reportedly considering many options to avoid Social Security insolvency, which includes raising the retirement age.When asked if he would consider raising the retirement age during a FOX News interview on Thursday, Social Security Administration Commissioner Frank Bisignano said, “I think everything’s being considered, will be considered.”Why you should care:FOX Business, citing Social Security Administration data, reported that Social Security’s two main trust funds, the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) and Disability Insurance (DI) funds, are projected to reach insolvency by 2034.Continue readingNo More Masked ICE In LA; Gov. Newsom Signs ‘No Secret Police’ Act In Latest MAGA Rebuke: “Kristi Noem Is Going To Have A Bad Day Today”By Dominic Patten“Kristi Noem is going to have a bad day today,” exclaimed Gavin Newsom‘s press office X feed this morning, calling out the South Park–parodied Homeland Security Secretary by name. “You’re welcome, America.”The taunting post came just a few hours before the California Governor Saturday put pen to paper on Senate Bills 627, a.k.a. the “No Secret Police Act” and 805 a.k.a The “No Vigilantes Act” in a public ceremony in LA.“ICE, unmask, what are you afraid of?” said Gov. Newsom in Sat, surrounded by Mayor Karen Bass, LA County Supervisor (and ex-Labor Secretary) Hilda Solis, LASUD Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho and others. “This is not about the pronoun police, this is about the secret police,” Newsom added, quoting The Daily Show‘s Jon Stewart.Among the dangers of the newly enlarged ICE is that they are becoming a private police force, the term limited Newson stated, “that it appears to many of us have sworn an oath to Donald Trump, not the Constitution …this is not America.”Continue readingThe science of slumber: How sleep became the ultimate anti-aging treatmentby Willow TohiFor generations, “beauty sleep” was dismissed as a folk tale, a quaint notion with no basis in biology. But a convergence of clinical research from dermatology and sleep medicine is now revealing a profound truth: the path to radiant, youthful skin is paved with consistent, quality rest. Groundbreaking studies are moving beyond anecdotal evidence, providing scientific validation that sleep is not a passive state but an active, essential repair session for the body’s largest organ—the skin. This new understanding positions sleep as a non-negotiable component of skincare, on par with diet and sun protection, and challenges a culture that often prizes productivity over rest.Continue readingMilei Admits “The Market Is In Panic Mode” As Argentine Capital Exodus Acceleratesby Tyler DurdenFollowing his government’s resounding loss in local elections – seen as a harbinger of next month’s congressional races – Argentine President Milei is facing a renewed crisis as the embattled South American country’s currency is collapsing amid fears that he will scrap his defense of the peso (which has already cost hundreds of millions of dollars) and let it plunge as so many of his predecessors have done.“The market,” Milei said when collared by a local journalist for a brief interview late Friday, is “in panic mode.”In a desperate attempt to satisfy demand for hard currency and prevent the peso from cratering, the three-day intervention figure rose to $1.1 billion, a staggering amount in a country that, by economists’ best estimates, has less than $20 billion in liquid foreign reserves.Continue readingMaking Standard Time Permanent Will Be Healthier for Americans: Studyby Naveen AthrappullyAdopting a permanent standard time in the United States rather than changing times biannually is a healthier option for Americans, according to a Sept. 15 peer-reviewed study published in the PNAS journal.“Seasonal changes in time policy, such as switching between Standard Time (SDT) and Daylight Saving Time (DST), have been adopted by many countries, including the United States,” the study’s authors from Stanford University said. “While transitioning between SDT and DST has notable acute negative population health impacts, the chronic impact of these time policies on health has not been well evaluated.”Researchers looked at how SDT, DST, and biannual shifting between these two time setups affect people’s circadian rhythms and health. Circadian rhythm is a person’s innate 24-hour clock that regulates several physiological processes in their body.Continue readingIngenious space-saving Tiny Workshop named 2025 Shed of the YearBy Adam WilliamsThe Cuprinol Shed of the Year winner for 2025 has been announced. London’s Mike Robinson has won with his ingenious space-saving Tiny Workshop, which showcases an inspired use of shelving and spare parts.Described as small but mighty by Shed of the Year founder Andrew Wilcox, the Tiny Workshop was conceived when Robinson couldn’t find a shed that perfectly matched his small garden plot. Deciding to improvise, he bolted together two sets of heavy duty steel shelving units and went from there.The shed measures 3 x 1 x 2.4 m (9.10 x 3.3 x 7.10 ft). Two doors open at the bottom and top to provide flooring and rain protection, while the interior has been fitted with shelving and drawers, as well as a place to sit and enjoy the space.Inside, its workbench and tool walls are made from birch plywood offcuts and there’s also indirect LED lighting installed. Looking to the future, a newly planted green roof will continue to grow and cover it with greenery.Continue readingDavid Friedman’s Economics Jokesby David FriedmanI have a small collection of economics jokes, not jokes about economics but jokes that teach economics. Here are all of them:1. Two economists walked past a Porsche showroom with an elegant sports car visible through the window:First Economist: “I really want that car.”Second Economist: “Obviously not.”2. An economist and a businessman were walking in the wood when they encountered a large and hungry bear. The economist turned to run.Businessman: “You don’t think you can outrun a bear, do you?”(Contributed by Dennis Hanseman, editor of my Price Theory)3. What is sweeter than honey?Free vinegar.(From a Middle Eastern cookbook by Claudia Roden)4. An economics professor is in a car driven by one of his students; she asks him to put on his seat belt.“Why do you want me to put on my seat belt?”“To make it less likely that you will be injured in an accident.”“Then why don’t you take yours off?”Continue readingWhat Happens When You Can’t Explain the Lack of an Exit Wound?by Anthony ColpoThe guy pictured above is Andrew Kolvet. His X bio says he is “Christian. Proud husband and father. TPUSA Spokesman. Executive Producer of The Charlie Kirk Show. Son of Nevada. American.”Sure.I don’t know Andrew personally, but I can tell you one thing with certainty:He is one of the worst liars I’ve ever come across.Get a load of what he posted on X today:Well, that explains everything, then.Our unnamed physician – let’s call him Dr Doolittle – has finally solved the exit wound mystery using impeccable scientific rigor.Okay, so he’s a bumbling idiot who missed a large bullet even though it was “just beneath the skin” the whole time.Not to worry, the coroner got it in the end.The brilliant Dr Doolittle was pondering the intractable mystery of how a .30-06 can effortlessly leave exit wounds in much larger game animals, but not a pencil-necked human.Continue readingTrump and RFK Jr.’s Warning about Tylenol and Autismby Joseph HickeyUS President Donald Trump and Health Secretary RFK Jr. announced yesterday that the US Food and Drug Agency (FDA) would begin warning pregnant women of potential health risks from taking Tylenol (acetaminophen), including the possibility that exposing the fetus to the drug could increase the risk of autism.Mainstream media sources were typically over-the-top apoplectic in response, painting Trump and Kennedy as irresponsible threats to public health.However, such knee-jerk opposition to the warning-label update for Tylenol is not warranted, given that there is evidence in the scientific literature providing cause for concern about possible negative neurodevelopmental effects of Tylenol.For example:Ji et al., “Association of Cord Plasma Biomarkers of In Utero Acetaminophen Exposure With Risk of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Autism Spectrum Disorder in Childhood”, JAMA Psychiatry (2020):Continue readingImagine There Was A Violent Cult Committing Atrocities With ImpunityEtienne Note: Israel is both a religious cult that was given a “State” where the same inter-generational organized crime system (bankers/central bankers) is having the pseudo-religion of Statism indoctrinated into the population in the same way that it is being indoctrinated into the US population: Mandatory “government” schools, youth programs, military indoctrination, monopoly media and others. I think the ultra-religious of any stripe are more susceptible to indoctrinated Statism and getting chumped and tax-farmed.by Caitlin JohnstoneListen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):Imagine there was a violent cult that used scriptures from an ancient religion to convince its followers to do evil things.Imagine the cult was given its own state.Imagine the cult was given machine guns, tanks and war planes.Continue readingEx-CIA Chief Gives Warm Welcome To Founder Of Syrian Al-Qaeda In New YorkEtienne Note: Al-Qaeda, the CIA’s puppet army, which was battling US force in Iraq so the military industrial complex could make billions, has now deposed the Syrian regime for the US and is welcomed with open arms by the same CIA chief and military commander that was, allegedly, battling him in Iraq. Reminds me of the famous quote from George Orwell’s 1984: “Actually, as Winston well knew, it was only four years since Oceania had been at war with Eastasia and in alliance with Eurasia. But that was merely a piece of furtive knowledge which he happened to possess because his memory was not satisfactorily under control. Officially the change of partners had never happened. Oceania was at war with Eurasia: therefore Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia. The enemy of the moment always represented absolute evil, and it followed that any past or future agreement with him was impossible” – From 1984 by George Orwell which gave the world the word: DoubleThink to describe the acceptance of contrary opinions or beliefs at the same time, especially as a result of political indoctrinationContinue readingAnd Suddenly… The Robots AppearedBy: Gerrit De Vynck, Lisa Bonos via WPJensen Huang says, “The ChatGPT moment for general robotics is just around the corner.” Tesla’s Optimus robot is predicted to be the biggest product in history, topping over $1 trillion in the first few years. Venture capital is flowing into the robot space with over $5 billion invested in new startups since 2024. China has beat Tesla to market with a 4-foot-3, 77-pound humanoid that sells for $16,000. ⁃ Patrick Wood, Editor.In an office park opposite an Amazon warehouse, the robots are at work.A trio of six-foot-tall machines with ostrichlike legs and two jointed arms work in shifts, walking off a charging rack to move boxes between two conveyor belts until it’s time to plug in again.This vision of the future of labor is a test station at the end of an assembly line for building humanoid robots designed to fill jobs in warehouses and auto plants. Human engineers nearby watch for mistakes as the machines are put through their paces.Continue readingBREAKING: White House Announces Tylenol–Autism Link, Opens Door to Vaccinesby Nicolas Hulscher, MPHToday the White House and HHS announced a potential link between prenatal acetaminophen (Tylenol) use and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), along with new actions to limit its use.In a MAJOR development, both Trump and RFK Jr. also acknowledged the possibility that vaccines contribute to autism. As Trump said:“They pump so much stuff into those beautiful little babies, it’s a disgrace.”This was not anticipated based on prior media coverage of this event — and it represents a massive win.Although most of the spotlight fell on Tylenol, the evidence is undeniable: acetaminophen is NOT the root cause. At most, it weakens defenses and heightens vulnerability. The true trigger — then and now — is VACCINES.The most comprehensive review to date, by Prada et al, evaluated acetaminophen use during pregnancy:Continue readingFrom WMDs to “Narco-States”: How the US Sells Wars the Intelligence Doesn’t Supportby Alan MacleodThe provocations increased last week, as the Navy entered Venezuelan waters, raiding a Venezuelan fishing boat and detaining its crew. And on Tuesday, the U.S. carried out a strike on another small vessel, killing at least three people. Trump justified the attack, claiming that after the attack, “big bags of cocaine and fentanyl” were “spattered all over the ocean.”Tren de Aragua has become something of an obsession for the Trump administration. On his first day in office in January, Trump designated the Venezuelan gang a “foreign terrorist organization,” claiming that they have sown “violence and terror” throughout the Western hemisphere, and “flooded the United States with deadly drugs, violent criminals, and vicious gangs.”In March, he invoked the 1789 Alien Enemies Act to declare that the United States had been “invaded” by Tren de Aragua. And in August, he put a $50 million bounty on the head of President Maduro, claiming that he directed both Tren de Aragua and the Cartel de los Soles (the Cartel of the Suns). This, the announcement stated, made Maduro “one of the largest narco-traffickers in the world.”Continue readingInfiltration: A Cardinal Function of the Zionist Movementby David Millerhat is the function of the Zionist movement? Let’s start with four statements that together define what the Zionist movement does by adding its functions cumulatively.The Zionist movement creates and sustains the “Israel lobby” to extend its ideological and political reach, shaping both foreign and domestic policy in the countries where it operates. It provides material support for ethnic cleansing and genocide, funneling millions each year through charities that aid in land theft and war crimes. It grooms children and youth into ideological loyalists through a vast network of schools, synagogues, youth groups and settler recruitment programs, including Birthright tours, the Masa journey and the Lone Soldier Program. Beyond all this, the movement systematically dispatches its adherents into broader society as lifelong agents of Zionist ideology. This is not a metaphor. It is infiltration.Continue readingCharlie Kirk “MAGIC BULLET” FOUND!by Peggy HallHey friends, did you hear the news?The bullet has been found.The missing bullet that has never been entered into evidence, has never been shown on the news or even been reported by law enforcement has somehow turned up — lodged into the bullet of “Man of Steel” Charlie Kirk.I break it all down for you here:Now before some people get bent out of shape with my analysis here, let me state emphatically:I’m not after Charlie Kirk. I’m not after Erika Kirk.I am after the truth.And I am looking for clues and I am drawing conclusions based on what I see and the patterns that emerge, and how those patterns match up with these very curious connections with Freemasonry, Scientology, Mormonism and Hermeticism (which is also connected to the “Dawn of the Golden Age” — sound familiar?)I’ve already done several videos touching on these topics, which you can view in my Charlie Kirk Youtube playlist here.Continue readingThe Processed Meat Industry Uses Dirty Tactics to Further Its Goalsby Dr. Joseph MercolaSodium nitrite is a chemical that creates artificial pink coloring in processed meats.

It is also effective in treating prolonged seizures.In the US, it is used as part of a three-drug cocktail for lethal injections:midazolam, to sedate;vecuronium bromide, to paralyze the muscles;potassium chloride, to stop the heart.Midazolam is known as a high-risk drug that should be administered only while under close medical observation.The most serious side effect of midazolam is respiratory depression, which can lead to respiratory arrest if not properly managed.Associated Press last year reported at least 16 people died in California over a decade following a physical encounter with police during which medical personnel also injected them with a powerful sedative. Midazolam was given in 15 of the 16 California cases, all by paramedics outside of a hospital. As AP noted:Continue readingFirst Circuit Affirms The Conviction Of An Innocent Man: The Ian Freeman Case -Convicted for selling Bitcoinby The Free Thought Project(Jacob G. Hornberger) On July 29, 2025, a three-judge panel of the First Circuit federal Court of Appeals unanimously upheld the criminal convictions and incarceration of libertarian Bitcoin activist Ian Freeman, who I have steadfastly maintained is an innocent man who federal officials railroaded into an 8-year prison sentence, which he is now serving.Here are my articles about the Freeman case, which explain in detail why this man is innocent:A person who is convicted of a crime in a U.S. District Court has the right to appeal his conviction to the federal Court of Appeals in the circuit in which the District Court is situated. To do that, he must file a Notice of Appeal. He must then file an appellate brief stating what exactly are the legal rulings that the District Judge made that void the conviction or that require the case to be sent back for a new trial. He must cite legal authority (i.e., legal opinions from similar federal cases) to support each of his points. There is something important to note about the defendant’s appellate brief: If he fails to challenge a particular ruling of the District Judge, he waives the point. That is, it is gone forever. He cannot later raise it during oral arguments or at a later time.Continue readingTrump Shocks World With Major Ukrainian U-Turn (…Or Did He Fool Us All?)by SimpliciusAs I was writing the previous report, Trump had tweeted something which has nearly “broken the internet”—at least the Russo-Ukrainian political side of it. I figured it would be more fitting to do a quick separate article on the matter, given that it seemed immediately obvious to me what was happening, and required no further rumination.Yes, ol’ Devious Don has shocked the world with a new “180-degree turn” on Ukraine, as expressed in his latest diatribe-as-tweet. In it, the Donald suddenly reverses course to fully back Ukraine fighting on and retaking all of its ‘historic’ land from Russia to the 1991 borders and even beyond, as he implies Ukraine could perhaps even march on Moscow, taking cues from Yushchenko’s latest enlightened turn.Some even see this as a kind of major declaration of war against Russia, and proof that the US will now funnel every imaginable weapon, and do everything in its power to “defeat” Russia in this mother-of-all-proxies .Continue readingIf Socialists Actually Understood SocialismEtienne Note: I “value-added” this article with some Dank Liberty Memes from: The Liberator.by Mises Wire, Emric EgbertIn light of recent developments in New York City, specifically on the recent primary elections and the emergence of self-described democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani as a potential mayoral candidate, as well as the increasingly aggressive public engagement of Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in their tour around the United States, and the fact that AOC’s chances of becoming the 2028 Democratic presidential nominee have doubled within one week, it has become clear to me that socialist rhetoric is gaining momentum in American political discourse.This trend is further reflected in survey data from the Pew Research Center, which shows that approximately 36 percent of U.S. adults aged 18 to 29 now view socialism positively. In response to these developments, it is imperative to contribute to the proper education and clarification of what these socialists are actually advocating for, or even what true socialism truly advocates for.Continue readingWhy the Government Is So Loved by So Manyby Mises Wire•Ryan McMakenOne of the most memorable passages in the memoir of the escaped slave Frederick Douglass is where he describes how one group of slaves would argue with another group of slaves over whose master was richer or stronger. Exhibiting a mixture of Stockholm syndrome with delusions of grandeur, these slaves, according to Douglass, “seemed to think that the greatness of their masters was transferable to themselves.” Moreover, Douglass noted that the slaves tended to not judge the behavior of their masters by any set objective standards, but in comparison to other masters. Douglass himself, when a slave, had fallen into this mode of thinking, as recounted in this passage:Continue reading“I’m Not Afraid”: James Comey Fires Back After Indictmentby Tyler DurdenUpdate (2045ET):Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey has released a video statement in response to the indictments against him, saying, “I’m innocent… I’m not afraid… Let’s have a trial.”With just days to go until the statute of limitations ran out, disgraced former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted on two of three counts sought by prosecutors – one count of making false statements and one count of obstruction of justice – just days after President Donald Trump issued a public demand for his Justice Department to act “now” to bring prosecutions against Comey.Continue readingUpcoming Liberty EventsThe Network State Conference – October 3rd – SingaporeOmniwar Symposium – October 4, 2025, from 9am Eastern/ 2pm BST – Online- Please visit technocracy.news/digital to registerMises Institute Supporters Summit 2025 – October 16th-18th, 2025 – Even’s LibertySark Weekend – 25th-28th September 2025Free State Bitcoin – DIGITAL ASSETS CONFERENCE – Save the date: October 12th, 2025 at Wentworth by the Sea, NH!Resist Digital IDs – Mass Non-Compliance Protest – Saturday, October 18th – 1:00 PM – Central LondonFree 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-lineThe People’s Reset Conference – January 28th-February1st 2026 – Morelia, MXEarly bird eds Agust 31st!

PLUS… The REAL US Political Spectrum isn’t What the MainStreamMedia Tells You on Tell-A-Vision Dear Subscribers,This week’s issue is only three days late vs. seven! My buddy Matt wants me to do a story on the Statist “religious revival” that was the Charlie Kirk memorial where the organizers were openly running multiple techniques that I cover in my new book: To See the Cage is to Leave It on the crowd and the audience…I still want to understand how the alleged killer was caught on video multiple times without the rifle.. Couldn’t have fit in his backpack.. even disassembled.. Obviously wasn’t in his pants as he was videotaped walking and running normally. I am assuming that I am going to get some heat for not believing the “official story” but the whole thing seems scripted from beginning-to-end where Trump seems like a conservative Jesse Jackson wiping his shirt in the (alleged) blood of Charlie Kirk (figuratively) and using Kirk’s death to revive himself with the conservative faithful that were departing in droves over Epstein and more foreign wars for Israel and the one being threatened in Venezuela.I had always thought Kirk and Turning Point USA were controlled opposition voices to crowd-gather politically interested college kids and keep them in the fake left-right paradigm(See Meme #2 Below), paid-for/engineered Christian Zionism and “voting harder” in rigged elections.You simply can’t blame me or anyone else for not believing ANYTHING we are shown on the tell-a-vision given the Gulf of Tonkin, Iraqi WMDs, Kuwati Babies thrown out of incubators, 9-11, “The Covid,” and all the other propaganda crimes“To expand liberty we must first shrink government.”– Charlie Kirk (1993 – 2025)I just updated this for 2025!

When I started in the industry at DIGEX, the first person I met (who also started at the same time I did) was an amazing guy named John Ferrandino, he is an ex-professional and D1 soccer player (Hall of Fame at GMU) that remains one of the most charismatic people that I have ever met. He has been the life of every party, dinner and conversation he was ever in. A really superb individual and friend. He was in a tragic accident over a week ago and remains in a coma today after multiple surgeries. He has two kids and was “on the bench” when the accident happened so the worst time to have a tragedy like this befall a family.

This Is A Fact, Not An Opinion.by Caitlin JohnstoneA UN inquiry has found that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, and that Israeli authorities have “intended to kill as many Palestinians as possible” in the enclave.Israel has responded to the UN report by calling it Hamas and antisemitic, because that’s all they’ve got. The Israeli Foreign Ministry released a statement claiming the report was authored by “individuals serving as Hamas proxies, notorious for their openly antisemitic positions.”Blah, blah, blah. The report is Hamas and antisemitic. All human rights organizations are Hamas and antisemitic. There’s a giant global antisemitic Hamas conspiracy dedicated to making it appear as though Israel is committing genocide, just to make Jewish people feel sad.BREAKING: CDC’s ACIP Finally Admits Major mRNA Vaccine Safety Concerns!by Aussie17In a jaw-dropping session at the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) meeting on September 19, 2025, two top experts, Dr. Charlotte Kuperwasser and Dr. Wafik El-Deiry, laid bare the serious doubts about mRNA COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna. Their topic, called “Workgroup Safety Uncertainties of mRNA Vaccines,” shredded the endless hype that these shots are “safe and effective.” For years, governments, doctors, and drug companies have pushed these experimental injections as lifesavers with barely any downsides. It’s not just minor glitches—it’s big problems that could harm people long-term, all while boosters keep getting recommended.Dr. Kuperwasser, an immunology and cancer specialist, and Dr. El-Deiry, a leading cancer researcher, reviewed key issues based on science papers, FDA info, and new data. They covered four main areas: how the vaccines mess with your immune system, where the mRNA and its parts end up in your body, a glitch called frameshifting that creates wrong proteins, and leftover junk like DNA in the vaccines. They focused on what happens with repeated shots, like all those boosters. The data? Still coming in, but what’s there is scary. “Safe and effective”? More like “risky and overhyped”.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.

Daly Exposed That Banks Create Money out of THIN AIREtienne Note: I am posting this as supplemental material to a podcast that I am about to publish where I rip the new Nick Offerman propaganda film: Sovereign. The film attempts to make claims against the scam of fractional reserve banking look like “crazy talk” so I thought I would publish the FASCINATING details of one of the only times the scam has been tried and exposed in front of an honest judge.

The judge delivered a dynamite decision that blasted the Federal Reserve and National Banks as unconstitutional and fraudulent. Understandably, the bankers have tried to bury this case and keep the controversial decree from public knowledge.Continue readingResearchers Found Unvaccinated Children Healthier Than Vaccinated, Didn’t Publish Findingsby Tyler DurdenAuthored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),Researchers from a large health care system in Michigan found that vaccinated children were more likely to develop a chronic health condition, but never published the findings, according to a copy of the study obtained by The Epoch Times.Henry Ford Health System, whose employees carried out the study, said it was deficient.Dr. Marcus Zervos, an infectious disease specialist at the Henry Ford Health, and colleagues studied 18,468 children born between 2000 and 2016 who were enrolled in the health system’s insurance plan, drawing data from medical, clinical, and payer records and supplementing with information from Michigan’s immunization registry.After 10 years, 57 percent of the vaccinated children had a chronic health condition such as asthma, compared to just 17 percent of the unvaccinated children.Continue reading”Be Warned, We Are Hunting You”: Trump Unleashes Second Attack On ‘Narcoterrorists’ Near Venezuelaby Tyler DurdenWith Venezuela President Maduro stating the country is readying for an “armed struggle”, President Trump has unleashed hell on a second vessel ferrying drugs from Venezuela, confirming his determination to proceed with attacks.US forces “conducted a SECOND Kinetic Strike against positively identified, extraordinarily violent drug trafficking cartels and narcoterrorists” in the US Southern Command’s area of responsibility, Trump wrote in a social media post.“The Strike occurred while these confirmed narcoterrorists from Venezuela were in International Waters transporting illegal narcotics (A DEADLY WEAPON POISONING AMERICANS!) headed to the U.S.”Trump continued:”These extremely violent drug trafficking cartels POSE A THREAT to U.S. National Security, Foreign Policy, and vital U.S. Interests.Continue reading”Daily News of The Week”Charlie Kirk refused Netanyahu funding offer, was ‘frightened’ by pro-Israel forces before death, friend revealsby Max Blumenthal and Anya ParampilCharlie Kirk rejected an offer earlier this year from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to arrange a massive new infusion of Zionist money into his Turning Point USA (TPUSA) organization, America’s largest conservative youth association, according to a longtime friend of the slain commentator speaking on the condition of anonymity. The source told The Grayzone that the late pro-Trump influencer believed Netanyahu was trying to cow him into silence as he began to publicly question Israel’s overwhelming influence in Washington and demanded more space to criticize it.In the weeks leading up to his September 10 assassination, Kirk had come to loathe the Israeli leader, regarding him as a “bully,” the source said. Kirk was disgusted by what he witnessed inside the Trump administration, where Netanyahu sought to personally dictate the president’s personnel decisions, and weaponized Israeli assets like billionaire donor Miriam Adelson to keep the White House firmly under its thumb.Continue readingBank for International Settlements Backs XRP as Cross-Border Giant — $2.77 Support Holdsby Brian NjugunaAccording to market commentator X Finance Bull, XRP is increasingly being recognized as a cornerstone for global financial settlement.The Bank for International Settlements (BIS), often referred to as the “central bank of central banks,” is reportedly positioning XRP as part of its global settlement infrastructure. This move signals a level of institutional acknowledgment far beyond retail speculation, highlighting XRP’s growing relevance in the mainstream financial ecosystem.XRP, Ripple’s digital asset, enables near-instant, low-cost cross-border payments, far outpacing traditional systems. Its efficiency has attracted financial institutions seeking alternatives to legacy rails.With the Bank for International Settlements’ involvement, XRP is gaining institutional credibility, positioning it as a serious contender for global financial infrastructure rather than just a speculative crypto asset.Continue readingStylish Prefab Home Can Be ‘Dropped’ into Flooded Areas or Anywhere Housing is NeededBy Good News NetworkCreated for our changing climate and rising sea levels, architects in the island nation of Indonesia designed the Drop Pod, a modular structure that is “quick to distribute and easy to install.”The futuristic prefabricated homes developed by Inspiral Architecture and Design Studios are designed to be both stylish and expandable, with the ability to be placed on a variety of terrain and deployed rapidly.“Whether it’s an urban area in a wealthy country or a developing country battling climate change, the Drop Pod provides the solution,” says the company’s website.“Nowadays, we see ourselves more and more confronted with issues of constant population growth and major changes in our climate.”For decades, sea levels have risen about 8 millimeters per year, according to a video report shot in Indonesia by Al Jazeera. This has caused major flooding and tidal surges that have consumed thousands of homes.Continue readingReanalysis of Popular Antidepressant Trial Uncovers Reporting Flawsby Dr. Joseph MercolaA reanalysis of a study found that fluoxetine alone showed no measurable benefit over placebo in treating adolescent depression after 12 weeksResearchers uncovered 11 additional suicide-related events that were hidden or misclassified, bringing the total to 21 serious incidentsStatistical tactics and selective reporting made fluoxetine appear safer and more effective than it really was in clinical trialsA different reanalysis mentioned that adverse events and many side effects were minimized or excluded from the original reportsImproving gut health, getting regular exercise, undergoing therapy, and optimizing vitamin D are viable approaches for treating depressionOnce in a while, the findings of a particular study make such a big impact in the medical industry that it influences recommendations for many years to come. One notable example is the Treatment for Adolescents with Depression Study (TADS), which was published in 2004.1Continue readingAlbania’s prime minister appoints an AI-generated ‘minister’ to tackle corruptionBy Llazar SeminiTIRANA, Albania (AP) — Albania’s prime minister on Friday tapped an Artificial Intelligence-generated “minister” to tackle corruption and promote transparency and innovation in his new Cabinet.Officially named Diella — the female form of the word for sun in the Albanian language — the new AI minister is a virtual entity.Diella will be a “member of the Cabinet who is not present physically but has been created virtually,” Prime Minister Edi Rama said in a post on Facebook.Rama said the AI-generated bot would help ensure that “public tenders will be 100% free of corruption” and will help the government work faster and with full transparency.Diella uses AI’s up-to-date models and techniques to guarantee accuracy in offering the duties it is charged with, according to Albania’s National Agency for Information Society’s website.Continue readingWho Killed Charlie Kirk? the Case Against Israelby Laurent GuyénotIn just a couple of days, an impressive amount of information has been brought to light pointing to Israel’s strong motive to take out Charlie Kirk ASAP. I will here compile that information, as I found it on X and other Internet outlets.In doing so, I am not influenced by my personal opinion on Kirk. I hardly ever listened to him before the last three days, and my opinion was mostly negative. Today, I still feel that Nick Fuentes was right in his very severe judgment of him as a traitor to his country paid by Israel to keep the MAGA movement in line with Israel’s interests, even when he was doing some “damage control”. That doesn’t mean, in my view, that Kirk was not sincere in his defense of Israel. As an evangelical Christian, he probably really saw this as a calling from God. On the other hand, I think that ambitious men are never exclusively interested by truth, that men in general (women included) are very good at lying to themselves about their true motivations, and that religion is a very practical way to lie to yourself. I also think that Kirk, although an energetic and talented fast talker, was not extremely intelligent—less intelligent than Fuentes, in my view. Like Fuentes, I don’t think anybody who supports Israel because the Bible tells him so can be very intelligent.Continue reading300,000 Palestinians Forced To Flee as Israeli Strikes Pound Gaza Cityby Kyle AnzaloneIsrael has ramped up its military operations in Gaza City, destroying dozens of buildings that Tel Aviv claimed are used by Hamas. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have been forced from the city to the al-Mawasi area.On Sunday, the IDF said it estimated that more than 300,000 Palestinians have left Gaza City since Israeli military operations began last month. About one million people were sheltering in the city. Tel Aviv has ordered the entire population of Gaza City to evacuate to the Mawasi safe zone.Palestinian sources estimate fewer people have left Gaza City, reporting that about 900,000 are still living in the region. However, the Palestinian Civil Defence says the pace is increasing with 6,000 people fleeing on Saturday.On Sunday, videos and images were published showing thousands of people attempting to flee the bombing. Some Palestinians say they are unable to leave Gaza City because they cannot afford transportation out of the city and a spot in Mawasi.Continue readingFull Israeli Ground Offensive In Gaza City Begins: ‘We Will Not Relent Until Mission Complete’by Tyler Durden”Gaza is burning,” Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz declared Tuesday. “We will not relent and we will not go back – until the completion of the mission.”The Israeli military launched the mainstay of its ground offensive in Gaza City on Tuesday, advancing slowly into the densely populated urban center, which has already suffered immense destruction due to airstrikes. Residents are being told to immediately evacuate to the south. Huge lines of vehicles packed with families’ belongings could be seen scrambling to get out of the war-ravaged city.Gaza City residents told Al Jazeera they are subject to “heavy, relentless” bombardment – and least 68 people have been killed by Israeli air strikes across Gaza since dawn. Videos also showed huge explosions rocking the city on Tuesday, with large bombs concentrated Tal al-Hawa, a neighborhood in the south of Gaza City.Continue reading44 of the biggest 50 metros are flashing a grave warning that a house price crash is nextBy Marianne Garvey, Us Real Estate ReporterHousing markets across the US are showing signs of trouble as homes linger on the market longer in 44 out of 50 major US metros.The worst hit area is Miami, where houses are now sitting unsold for nearly three months — almost four weeks longer than a year ago.Across the country, the typical home spent 60 days on the market in August, seven days longer than a year ago and above pre-pandemic norms, according to a new Realtor.com report.Buyers remain hesitant, held back by high prices, shifting mortgage rates, and fears of a financial downturn.At the same time, supply is building. A steady stream of new construction is pulling demand away from existing homes, while cancellations have hit record highs as more buyers back out of deals at the last minute.Continue readingPam Bondi’s Ridiculous 24 HoursBy Charles C. W. CookeIt has not been a good 24 hours for Pam Bondi, the attorney general of the United States. Yesterday, on the Katie Miller Podcast, Bondi said:We will absolutely target you, go after you, if you are targeting anyone with hate speech.Actually, she won’t. She won’t “target” or “go after” anyone for “hate speech,” because, legally, there is no such thing as “hate speech” in the United States, and because, as a government employee, she is bound by the First Amendment. And if she tries it anyway? The Supreme Court will side against her, 9-0.Bondi continued:There’s free speech and then there’sContinue readingDemocratic PR Firm to Run Bot Army for IsraelBy Donald ShawSKDKnickerbocker LLC, a top Democratic Party-aligned public relations firm, has agreed to run a “bot-based program” to amplify pro-Israel narratives on Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, and other platforms, according to a filing under the Foreign Agents Registration Act submitted on Aug. 29. The contract, signed on April 28, 2025, describes a strategy to “flood the zone” with content promoting the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ pro-Israel messages, using automated tools to increase the reach and visibility of specific posts.The contract, worth $600,000 from April 2025 through March 2026, also tasks SKDK with coaching Israeli civil society spokespeople for on-camera appearances, testing the effectiveness of social media influencers, and arranging tailored outreach to journalists at outlets including BBC, CNN, Fox, and the Associated Press to secure favorable coverage. While it is not confirmed whether the bot program is already active, the contract date suggests it could be underway.Continue readingSevere Childhood Allergies Linked to Ingredients in Common Vaccinesby Rclearchiro.comHave you ever wondered why so many children suffer from allergies that were not as common 50 years ago? Or why peanut allergies have skyrocketed in America, but not in places like India where it is one of their main ingredients?Here, in the United States, it’s common for parents to send EpiPens to school just in case someone so much as opens a snack in the room that contains peanuts. Today, peanuts are the number one cause of death from food reactions. What’s wrong with the human body that it would go into anaphylactic shock from a seemingly harmless food ingredient that couldn’t harm a soul a hundred years ago?Peanut oil was never meant to be put in a syringe and injected into muscle tissue. Why would anyone inject peanut oil into their body? Surprisingly, it is in the majority of the vaccines we receive.Continue readingNo Need to Return-How Small Acts Weave Communities Togetherby Carlita ShawDispatch: Kindness, compassion, community, homelessnessIt was on an unremarkable, early-autumn mornings when the sun hesitates behind pale clouds, and the air carries a bracing promise of winter’s approach, when I first noticed it, a long, soft coat, newly feathered and waterproofed, cosseted inside an old blue rucksack and left, almost reverently, on the slats of a park bench. It was not the usual park bench, either; this one curved like a parent’s arm beneath the grand, gnarled reach of an old oak. At first, I thought that maybe someone had forgotten it, perhaps in a moment of distraction, a jogger pausing after dawn or a student heading hurriedly to class. But as I passed, I saw the shape was too deliberate, the items too carefully arranged for mere accident. The next day, the same bench played host to a new arrival, this time, a thick wool blanket, rich as a sheep’s winter coat, and a matched set of hat, scarf, and gloves in a red so vivid it seemed even the grey sky could not quite extinguish its heat. The woollens, folded so precisely they looked untouched by hands, were anchored to the wood by a slip of scrap paper, the edges softened by dew. It read, in a looping, uncertain hand: “If you are cold, take me. No need to return.”Continue readingThe FBI’s Tyler Robinson story has completely fallen apartby Ricky Hale and Council Estate MediaWe now know beyond any reasonable doubt that we are being lied to by the FBI about the killing of Charlie Kirk. While it was already obvious, the narrative has become so ludicrous and contradictory, only a fool would take it seriously.Let’s start with the disastrous interview with Kash Patel, who it turns out is so woefully inept, he can’t even tell a convincing lie. The FBI director spoke to Fox News where he made some laughable claims. He insisted we know Tyler Robinson is Charlie Kirk’s killer because he left a note, but we can’t show you the note because it was destroyed, but it honestly existed so you’re gonna have to trust us.Patel claimed the note read: “I have the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m gonna take it”. How convenient… I can’t be bothered to fully quote Patel because what he said was such a convoluted mess so here is a clip. Enjoy.Continue readingGlyphosate Found in Eggs, Chicken Sold in Grocery Stores Traced to GMO Poultry Feedby IRT News TeamThis article was originally published by Sustainable Pulse.A scientific review in World’s Poultry Science Journal highlights the adverse health effects on avian species from exposure to the widely used weedkiller glyphosate (Roundup) throughout the process of poultry production. The herbicide enters the poultry production system through residues in genetically engineered feed, Beyond Pesticides reported.An earlier article in Scientific Reports concludes that glyphosate’s (GLP) “widespread application on feed crops leaves residues in the feed,” while residues are “found to be common in conventional eggs acquired from grocery stores.” In analyzing the biochemical, toxicological and ecological impacts of glyphosate on poultry, particularly chickens, the authors find a wide body of evidence linking glyphosate and its metabolite (breakdown product) aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) to debilitating hazards that extend beyond mortality.Continue readingPepper-balls, rifle rounds, drones: UC police get green light for military-grade weaponsby Jaweed KaleemUniversity of California police will be replenishing and increasing their stockpile of military-grade weapons and equipment — including drones, bullets and thousands of pepper ball rounds — as part of an annual request approved Wednesday by the governing board of regents.As UC’s handling of protests and campus security comes under scrutiny from the Trump administration, five campuses — UCLA, Irvine, Santa Barbara, San Diego and San Francisco — asked for more weapons, while those in Berkeley, Davis, Merced, Riverside and Santa Cruz did not seek to make new purchases.The biggest request came from UC San Diego, which said it needed 5,000 new 5.56-millimeter caliber rifle rounds to replace ones used in trainings. At UC Irvine, police asked for 1,500 pepper-ball projectiles. Although it has a significant weapons inventory compared to other campuses — among it 39,500 rifle rounds and ammo — UCLA’s police made relatively few requests, including four new pepper-ball launchers and 100 sponge foam rounds.Continue readingNew Study Obliterates the “Millions Saved” COVID Shot MythBy Nicolas Hulscher, MPHNow that the majority of Americans believe COVID-19 “vaccines” caused mass deaths (Rasmussen survey), the vaccine cartel has pivoted.No longer able to deny harms, they resort to a new defense: the fraudulent claim that COVID shots “saved millions of lives.” This talking point is designed to override evidence and silence accountability. But it collapses under scrutiny. A new peer-reviewed paper, A Step-by-Step Evaluation of the Claim that COVID-19 Vaccines Saved Millions of Lives, shows in detail why this claim is scientifically baseless and manufactured through deception:The heart of the “millions saved” claim lies in computer models, not observed evidence. The Senate hearing even cited a Commonwealth Fund blog post (Dec 2022) claiming 3.2 million U.S. deaths averted. But that wasn’t the only one.Continue readingThe Same Day Charlie Kirk Was ‘Shot’, the US Senate Quietly Voted 51-49 Against Releasing the Epstein Filesby Anthony ColpoIn addition to intensifying left-vs-right animosity among the sheeple, the patently obvious Charlie Kirk assassination psy-op distracted public attention from other newsworthy events that occurred the very same day.In the US, on Wednesday, September 10, Senate Republicans voted down an attempt to force a vote on the Epstein files release.Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer’s attempt to force a Senate vote to compel the Department of Justice to release the Jeffrey Epstein files turned out to be a very short-lived one on Wednesday.Earlier that day, Schumer took a rare procedural step to tee up the Senate to vote on his amendment requiring the release of Epstein documents ahead of a final vote on a “must-pass” defense spending bill.Republicans – you know, those ‘conservatives’ who supposedly stand for traditional values and virtues, like not molesting minors – largely stuck together, with 51 GOP senators voting down Schumer’s amendment.Continue readingThe Charlie Kirk Psy-Op: More Ridiculous By the Minuteby Anthony ColpoWe are told that Charlie Kirk was fatally shot on September 10 at Utah Valley University.The current president of UVU is one Astrid S. Tuminez. To say Tuminez has solid globalist form would be an understatement. Her past consultancies/jobs/chair positions include gigs for the World Bank, AIG Global Investment, Microsoft (Singapore regional director), Brunswick Warburg, the US Institute of Peace, and the Moscow office of the Harvard Project on Strengthening Democratic Institutions.In 2012, she authored a report on “Women’s Leadership in Asia”, supported by the Asia Society and the Rockefeller Foundation. She sits on the Carnegie Corporation board of trustees and is a permanent member of the Council on Foreign Relations.It should come as little surprise by now that Tuminez is also a member of the World Economic Forum, the sinister, technocratic ‘think tank’ founded by Henry Kissinger protege Klaus Shwab.Continue readingNew Report Reveals Soros’ Open Society Funneled $80 Million To Pro-Terror Groupsby Tyler DurdenThe White House opened the week by declaring war on the radical left and its dark-money NGO network in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s political assassination. President Trump and senior officials are zeroing in on George Soros’ Open Society Foundations (OSF) empire, which they say has sown years of chaos nationwide, with Trump even hinting at potential RICO charges.Remember Black Lives Matter’s color-revolution-style operation that ignited riots across the nation in 2020.A new report from Capital Research Center (CRC), a think tank tracking foundations, charities, and other nonprofits, has revealed OSF – now run by George’s ultra-leftist, radical son, Alexander – has funneled over $80 million into groups linked to terrorism or extremist violence.CRC investigative researcher Ryan Mauro published the bombshell report titled “Soros’ Open Society gave $80 million to pro-terror groups,” and this may be the breakthrough in evidence the Trump team needs to prosecute OSF under RICO.Continue readingWith Its Latest Rate Cut, the Fed Serves Wall Street and the Regimeby Mises Wire, Ryan McMakenOn Wednesday, the Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee cut the target policy rate by 0.25 percent, bringing the target down to 4.25 percent. This cut is the first since the Fed implemented a cutting cycle last year that reduced the target rate from 5.5 percent to 4.5 percent. That series of cuts began with a 50 basis-point cut in September of last year, ending with a 25 basis-point cut in December.This month’s meeting is among the most-watched meetings of recent years with the FOMC now being expected to “do something” in response to a clear slowdown in job growth in recent employment data. Since January, the Fed has faced immense public pressure from the White House, from Wall Street, and from many financial-sector pundits demanding that the Fed cut the target interest rate and adopt an even more dovish stance. A frequent criticism of the Fed through this period—made by those who believe more monetary inflation can somehow strengthen an economy—is that the Fed is “too late” in implementing additional rate cuts to stimulate the economy.Continue readingYou Can’t Run Like a Boss With a Mauser Tucked Down Your Jeans.

Paramount is set to buy Bari Weiss’s Substack blog, The Free Press, for a whopping $200 million that is estimated to have a $15 million annual revenue that does not justify the price. James Li says that the purchase is not about competing with independent news and analysis, but rather it is intended to reshape CBS network to fall in line with Zionist ideology. Glenn Greenwald wrote that it is a desperate move to protect and whitewash information using CBS News in the service of the foreign government of Israel.Continue reading…Etienne Note: Now they have CBS… It isn’t “The Jews” its Jewish organized crime hiding within the Jewish community and hiring their own for the exact same reason that the Italian mafia is overwhelmingly Italian and Catholic. They are hiring “true believers” to control perception widely on issues like 9-11, AIPAC, and the legitimacy of “government” which is the technique they are using to rob, control and tax farm the populations of both the US and Israel..

Children were tracked from birth over a 10-year period. The data were drawn directly from electronic medical records — the gold standard for real-world health outcomes.The study’s official title: “Impact of Childhood Vaccination on Short- and Long-Term Chronic Health Outcomes in Children: A Birth Cohort Study.”The measures and outcomes cited below come directly from the testimony of Aaron Siri, who presented these findings under oath in the U.S. Senate. Unfortunately, the study is not yet publicly available.Continue readingForensic Study Finds That Christchurch Mosque Shooting was StagedEtienne Note: On a personal note, I have had multiple people that I know and trust in New Zealand that were either plugged in to medical personnel who treated the wounded and one person connected to New Zealand law enforcement assure me that there were actual fatalities and wounded. The discrepancy seems to be the video released by the shooter was scripted, staged and designed for maximum, viral distribution. The way the shotgun was handled was indictive of 1st-person shooter video games. The fact that there are anomalies in the video and evidence of staging seems to indicate a global operation to push for gun control. Other equivalent operations include the 1996 Port Arthur Massacre in Australia (Real Victims) that is being exposed as well:https://www.paulmoder.com/single-post/the-wasp-files-port-arthur-massacre-podcast-exploding. And Sandy Hook Dec 14th 2012(No Real Victims), Orlando Pulse Night Club – Feb 14th 2018 (No real victims) and Borderline Bar Thousand Oaks, CA Nov 8th 2018 (No Real Victims).by Greg ReeseRecognized as an expert witness by the courts, Gareth Jacobs has 14 years of experience as a Digital Forensic Analyst with 6 years dedicated to service within the New Zealand Police. In 2019 he performed a preliminary analysis on the Christchurch Mosque shooting video and found several discrepancies. Jacobs submitted his report to the President of the Police Association, but never heard back.The live-streamed video in question was declared an “objectionable publication” and made illegal in New Zealand on March 16th, 2019. In August of 2022, Kelvyn Alp and Hannah Spierer of Counterspin Media were charged by police with possession of the Mosque shooting video. In hopes to have this overturned, they hired Gareth Jacobs to do a full examination and provide his expert opinion in court. In order to accomplish this, they had to travel to a country where this video is not illegal.Continue readingFiltering Multiple Tap Water Contaminants Could Prevent Over 50,000 Cancer Casesby Dr. Joseph MercolaOver 100 million Americans receive tap water with arsenic, nitrate, or chromium-6 at levels above health-based safety benchmarks. These chemicals put you at increased risk for cancer and other diseasesThese three top contaminants frequently co-occur in groundwater and surface water, especially in states like California, Arizona, and Texas with high agricultural and industrial activityFederal drinking water standards lag decades behind current science and don’t account for how contaminants appear in mixtures.

The firm’s lobbying revenue skyrocketed by 300% in the second quarter compared with the previous year, making it the top-earning lobbying shop for the first time ever.Founded by Trump campaign bundler Brian Ballard, the firm was paid $20 million for lobbying in Q2, dethroning the perennial leader Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck. The haul was an increase of over 40% from Q1 and brought its total this year to nearly $34 million. The company’s founder and top lobbyist was a leading fundraiser for Trump in 2024, bringing in a reported $50 million for the president’s comeback bid.Continue reading”Daily News of The Week”Tiny briefcase engine boosts EV range beyond battery powerBy C.C. WeissAutomotive supplier Horse Powertrain continues to push the next generation of plug-and-play range-extended hybrid solutions. Sized “no larger than a briefcase,” the all-new C15 four-cylinder engine-generator is designed to slide into all-electric vehicle platforms with little to no modification necessary, bringing an immediate high-efficiency range boost with or without turbo.Horse has always struck us as a company just over the right side of the thin wire fence dividing genius from insanity. Had it debuted a couple of years earlier, when the automotive world had its head down toward going 110% all-in on electric vehicles, it would have struck us as a bit insane, or at least “too little, too late.” But having ramped up at a time when governments and automakers worldwide are rethinking those EV plans and timelines, it seems to be perfectly positioned for a renaissance in hybrid technology. For now, at least.Continue readingFlorida schools will test armed drones this fall to thwart shootersby Robert FreedmanSchools in three districts in Florida will be testing the use of drones armed with nonlethal weapons to respond more forcefully to active shooter incidents, the company involved in the initiative told Facilities Dive.Lawmakers in the state approved $557,000 in the 2025-2026 state budget to pay for the demonstrations using drones operated by Texas-based company Campus Guardian Angel. The Florida Department of Education will select the districts, according to a CBS News report. Miami-Dade County Public Schools has shown interest in participating, CBS reported.More than 60 school shootings have been reported in Florida since 2018, Newsweek reported, based on data from the K-12 School Shooting Database.The drones are stored on-site on charging pads in secure boxes. School officials can activate them using a silent alarm or other mechanisms, the company says. Once activated, the drones can get anywhere on school grounds within 15 seconds, according to Justin Marston, the company’s CEO and cofounder. Once airborne, they offer two-way communication through an embedded speakerphone. They also can break glass, make loud noises, fire nonlethal pepper-spray pellets or take other action within a minute as a first response to an incident.Continue readingPrivate school choice jumps 25% in one yearby Kara ArundelParticipation in private school choice — when students use public funds toward private school tuition — has increased 25%, from just over 1 million students in 2024 to 1.3 million this year, according to a new analysis by EdChoice, a pro-school choice advocacy organization.This has been the largest year-to-year increase since EdChoice began tracking this data in 2000, said Robert Enlow, president and CEO of EdChoice. He added that it took about 24 years for private school choice participation to reach 1 million students and only one year to reach 1.3 million.Enlow said the rapid increase in private school choice participation is occurring simply because more choice opportunities exist. “When you increase the ability of families across all income levels to get the options that they want, you’re going to see them taking those options up,” he said.Continue readingTrump’s Drug Boat Drone Strike Shows How ‘Terrorism’ Makes Everyone Killableby Matthew PettiVice President J.D. Vance was almost incredulous when a reporter asked him what “legal authority” the Trump administration used to blow up an alleged drug boat off the coast of Venezuela with a drone on Tuesday. “There are people who are bringing—literal terrorists—who are bringing deadly drugs into our country,” Vance said.Why are they “literal terrorists”? Because the administration said so. President Donald Trump declared just after taking office that he would be designating drug cartels as terrorist organizations. One of them was Tren de Aragua, the organization accused of sending out the drug boat. (The administration tends to play fast and loose with labeling things Tren de Aragua; for all its criminal activities, the gang is not known to smuggle cocaine.) After the drone strike, multiple cabinet officials made sure to use the phrase “narco-terrorist organization.”Continue readingWW3? French Hospitals Told To Prepare For A “Major Military Engagement” Within Six Monthsby Tyler DurdenAuthored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,French hospitals have been advised to prepare for a large scale war by next year, in a government letter that was leaked to the media.There are reports that the French Ministry of Health has informed hospitals to prepare for a “major [military] engagement” by March of 2026.The letter allegedly states that between 10,000 to 50,000 people are to be expected in hospitals.view source: https://twitter.com/i/status/1964119590860181935he leaked letter also reportedly explains that mass casualties are to be expected not just from its own forces, but wounded soldiers from across Europe, and that France would be acting as a ‘rear base’.It outlines how French hospitals would need to prepare for up to 50 THOUSAND beds allocated to wounded civilians and military personnel EVERY MONTH.Continue readingNurse Warns Hospital Patients Who Reject Remdesivir that They May Be Given Veklury (Same Thing, Different Brand Name)by Nicole Sirotek, Science, Biological Insights, Meryl Nass and Gateway PunditNicole Sirotek, whistleblower and founder of the American Frontline Nurses, warned in a video that patients across the country are reporting that when they go into the hospital and decline remdesivir, a drug used to treat COVID-19, they are given Veklury, which is the same drug.

He warned markets would react with weaker bonds, equities, and higher country risk.FT writes that the setback comes amid Milei’s struggles in Congress, where his veto was recently overturned, and a corruption scandal involving leaked recordings and alleged kickbacks linked to his sister Karina. His approval has dropped below 40%.Continue readingUp To 37% Of Circulating Bitcoin May Be Lost Forever In Silent Supply Shockby Nicole Sirotek, Science, Biological Insights, Meryl Nass and Gateway PunditNicole Sirotek, whistleblower and founder of the American Frontline Nurses, warned in a video that patients across the country are reporting that when they go into the hospital and decline remdesivir, a drug used to treat COVID-19, they are given Veklury, which is the same drug.

The new analysis by a team of international scientists found increasing evidence that hazardous exposures are a major culprit in millions of these deaths worldwide each year, especially among vulnerable populations.Air pollution, the most significant environmental risk, contributes to approximately 8.3 million deaths annually, with more than half due to cardiovascular disease (CVD), while two million people lost their lives in 2019 due to chemical exposures from contaminated soil and water.Continue readingThe U.S. just sold $100 billion in 4-week Treasury bills. That’s the largest short-term auction in historyby Charles-Henry MonchauThere are three main flavors of Treasuries.• Bills: Short-term. Mature in less than 1 year.• Notes: Medium-term. Mature in 2–10 years.• Bonds: Long-term. Mature in 10+ years.Normally, the U.S. spreads borrowing across all three buckets. Some debt matures quickly. Some comes due in a decade. Some doesn’t have to be paid back for 30 years. That mix spreads out risk and stabilizes funding.But right now, the U.S. is leaning very heavily on bills. Why? Because bills are cheaper today.To balance things, Treasury has started buying back long bonds. So they sell short-term bills to raise cash. Then they use that cash to buy back 10- to 30-year bonds already in circulation. That reduces long-end supply.This strategy saves money in the short run. But it creates something called rollover risk. Bills mature fast. That means the government has to refinance constantly. If rates fall, that’s good news. If rates rise, the pain hits immediately.Continue readingLive updates: Israel says it targeted Hamas leadership in Qatar’s capital as blast is heard in DohaBy Bridget Brown And Andrea Thomassrael launched a strike targeting Hamas’ leadership in Qatar on Tuesday, officials said, further widening its campaign against the militant group, as negotiations over ending the war in the Gaza Strip appeared to stall before a new military offensive there.It wasn’t immediately clear how the attack was carried out, though an Israeli military spokesman referred to Israel’s air force carrying out the strike. Qatar Airways continued landing in Doha amid the strike, even as at least one Qatari air force aircraft took off on patrol over the country.What to know:Qatar responds: Qatar condemned what it referred to as a “cowardly Israeli attack” on Hamas’ political headquarters in Doha. Foreign Ministry spokesman Majed al-Ansari called it a “flagrant violation of all international laws and norms.”Continue readingPalantir Is The Biggest Existential Threat To Americaby Patrick WoodI can vouch for every fact, analysis, and conclusion in this video by Vanessa Wingårdh.

Happy Birthday—and may every day be another wonderful secret.WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released on Monday a sexually suggestive letter to Jeffrey Epstein purportedly signed by President Donald Trump, which he has denied.The letter was included as part of a 50th birthday album compiled in 2003 for Epstein, a wealthy and well-connected financier who was once a friend of Trump’s. The full House committee on Monday night released a copy of the entire album, which bore names of some other prominent figures such as former President Bill Clinton and attorney Alan Dershowitz in a “friends” section, and included other letters with sexually provocative language.Continue readingEngineer Builds His Own X-Ray After Hospital Charges Him $69Kby Derya OzdemirAlmost a third of working Americans are in some form of medical debt, with nearly a quarter of those with an outstanding balance owing $10,000 or more. Many Americans feel anxious about health care costs and are depleting their own savings to pay the bills, or avoiding going to the doctor due to the cost, and in some cases, as in the case of William Osman, embarking on bizarre projects to highlight the issue.The YouTuber and engineer, who is known for his bizarre projects that combine engineering and entertainment, posted a video last week outlining how a recent hospital visit requiring X-rays resulted in a staggering $69,210.32 bill.He explains that, thanks to his health insurance policy, he will only have to pay roughly $2,500, and that, when combined with annual insurance costs, the total will be around $8,500. In a comedic sequence, he laments, “I’m a slave to medical debt now. I have to sell all my things, I have to sell my friends’ belongings.” Then, he embarks on an extremely reckless and risky endeavor to build his own fully functional X-ray machine for less than the cost of his actual medical expenses.Continue readingComparing INJECTED versus INGESTED Aluminum…and the Serious Dangers of Injected Aluminumby Dana Ullman, MPH, CCHIn fact, aluminum is a known neurotoxin for virtually all living creatures, and it leads to a variety of neurological damage including cognitive decline and potentially contributing to neurodegenerative diseases in humans and many other creatures.Aluminum is commonly used as an anti-perspirant in large part due to its effects on clogging sweat ducts. This type of sealing and starving tissue, leads to oxidate stress and to increased free radicals in the brain. It is now widely accepted that chronic aluminum exposure is linked to Alzheimer’s disease via β-amyloid aggregation and neuronal oxidative damage.An increase of free radicals in the brain can lead to cellular damaged, neurodegeneration, aging, inflammation, and the loss of brain cells.As a drying agent, a simple meme about aluminum is that “by taking water out of biology, you create geology.” Life and complexity of biological activity is diminished. THIS is what aluminum does.Continue readingAuthors of ‘Astonishing’ Study Showing Unvaccinated Kids Are Healthier Refused to Go Public With ResultsThis article was originally published by The Defender — Children’s Health Defense’s News & Views Website.by Suzanne Burdick, Ph.D.In a U.S. Senate hearing today, attorney Aaron Siri revealed the results of a large study that found vaccinated children were far more likely to develop chronic disease than unvaccinated kids.The study never underwent peer review and was never published, because the authors — staunch vaccine supporters — told Siri they were concerned about losing their jobs or reputations because their findings contradicted the official public health narrative and vaccine policy.Siri’s testimony, delivered during Tuesday’s Senate hearing, “How the Corruption of Science has Impacted Public Perception and Policies Regarding Vaccines,” addressed the study’s origins, findings and suppression.Continue readingSeveral states are planning to use “standing orders” to kill in hospitals.by Sasha LatypovaI wanted to bring to your attention this post by Conservative Ladies of WA: “West Coast Alliance and WA’s Vaccine Mandate: A Coordinated Power Shift”.It is important to share this widely and discuss with your family and friends.

PLUS… Etienne’s Take on Charlie Kirk & Trump Jumps Out in Front of the Vaccine Disclosure Parade…Dear Subscribers,Charlie Kirk was just shot… My first thought: “What info did a Turning Point supporter leak to him that he was about to release?” 2nd thought: “They really want to get the focus off 9-11 and/or all the revelations of vaccine harm that just came out in the Senate… See below…9-11 is tomorrow… My article Codex 9-11 – New 2025 Documentary Blows the Lid off the False Flag Attacks of 9-11 now has 8500+ views and 90 shares on Substack alone… Our version of the video on YouTube now has 6400+ views and climbing…The lead story this week is my article: Trump Tweets Drs. David & Mark Geier Video Exposing Neurological Toxin in Vaccines. When I published it yesterday I simply couldn’t understand why he would publish a video exposing that the organized crime “government” has been mandating “vaccines” with neurological toxin that cause autism and developmental issues. In reviewing the news today, I realized that the Senate had hearings where a whole slew of damaging evidence on the toxicology of “vaccines.” The most damaging was that the Henry Ford Health System in Michigan just released the results of the largest vaccinated vs. unvaccinated birth cohort study ever conducted in the United States (n=18,468). Children were tracked from birth over a 10-year period. The data were drawn directly from electronic medical records — the gold standard for real-world health outcomes. The study’s official title: “Impact of Childhood Vaccination on Short- and Long-Term Chronic Health Outcomes in Children: A Birth Cohort Study.”KEY FINDINGSCompared to unvaccinated children, those who received one or more vaccines had dramatically higher rates of chronic illness:329% more asthma203% more atopic disease496% more autoimmune disease453% more neurodevelopmental disorders  • including 228% more developmental delays  • and 347% more speech disordersIt looks like Trump’s PR team that runs his Truth Social account wanted him to get out in front of the parade!Jason Christoff dropped me an e-mail with a similar thought:”Maybe this is being done to cut the autism reveal off at the pass. Blame autism on thimerosal and then claim thimerosal is already out of the vaccines……..and that wraps that up. No further action needed, right?” Finally, Voluntaryist Troubadour Brendan Daniel, who occasionally rocks the house with the Red Pill Friends, has some dental issues… His girlfriend has a GoFundMe set up for him… See below for details…Top Stories of the WeekTrump Tweets Drs. David & Mark Geier Video Exposing Neurological Toxin in Vaccines I didn’t see that coming…By Etienne de la Boetie2, The Art of Liberty FoundationDonald Trump recently posted a video of Drs. Mark and David Geier, exposing how neuro-toxic mercury was/is added to multiple vaccines on his Truth Social account. I say “was/is” because it is still in some vaccines including multi-dose vials of the flu “vaccine” and in “trace amounts” in the Engerix B (Hepatitis B vaccine), which is, insanely, given to newborn infants. In a textbook example of why you can’t trust the organized crime “government” or the monopoly pharmaceutical industry, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers “vaccines” with less than 1 microgram of mercury per dose as “thimerosal-free.” “Vaccines” containing thimerosal at concentrations less than 0.3 micrograms per milliliter are often referred to having “trace amounts”.I was so shocked that Trump shared the video, that I actually went to the Truth Social website to verify myself that he actually posted it and took a screenshot in case it disappears off the internet.Continue Reading and See the Video Trump Shared…Voluntaryist Charity of the WeekVoluntaryist Troubadour Brendan Daniel Needs Dental Care!Brendan Daniel is a supremely talented singer/songwriter who wrote the song “Organized Crime” based on my book “Government” – The Biggest Scam in History…Exposed!

And the Free Republic of Verdis, the country he claims to have founded in 2019, is nothing more than a small strip of uninhabited forest on the border between Croatia and Serbia, more than 1,000 miles away.And yet, because of a historical border dispute, Jackson, who was born in Australia, claims to be the land’s rightful owner and ruler.Known as “Pocket 3,” the strip of forest roughly the size of the Vatican was among several left unclaimed by both countries after the Croatian war of independence ended in 1995.Continue reading”Government”, Media and Academia Criminality 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.

As an example of a CIA media asset since he was made a commentator on CIA CNN and 3. As an example of a CIA “Created Legend” where his (Ghost Written?) book was made a “New York Times Bestseller” and turned into a Hollywood movie that premiered right before his Senate run. This was waayy before he was installed as Vice President even though he had called Trump “America’s Hitler” and said he would rather write in his dog.

It is coordinated, calculated, and by design.Yet while both major parties—long in service to the Deep State—have weaponized mass communication to shape public opinion, the Trump administration is elevating it into a new art form that combines meme warfare, influencer psyops, and viral digital content to control narratives and manufacture consensus.Continue readingMassive Property Tax Fraud Exposed – $5.1 Trillion Bond Scam Will Crash SystemBy Claudio LavangaOn a video call, 20-year-old Daniel Jackson, the self-proclaimed president of the Free Republic of Verdis, looks the part: He is sitting at a desk with the country’s flag to his right and a banner sporting the name of his country behind him.Instead of a presidential palace, he is speaking from a humble house in Dover, a port city in the south of England.

Cohen said, “It scrapes the internet 24-7 using an Israeli grade ontology to pull specific threat language and then routes it to local law enforcement.“ He added, “It’s a 24-7 detective. It never sleeps and it’s going to get us in front of these attacks.”Aaron Cohen, a former IDF Special Ops soldier from Israel is pushing ‘Gideon’, the first AI-driven threat prediction/ pre-attack platform for law enforcement using elite engineers from Palantir.

So far, the complaints have only involved images, but AI could just as easily alter spoken words with lip-syncing. Already, creators are crying foul because their followers can’t trust their content as being genuine, even if it was originally authentic when it was first uploaded. This may be the next phase of censorship in digital spaces, collapsing trust altogether. ⁃ Patrick Wood, Editor.YouTube made AI enhancements to videos without telling users or asking permission. As AI quietly mediates our world, what happens to our shared connection with real life?Rick Beato’s face just didn’t look right. “I was like ‘man, my hair looks strange’, he says. “And the closer I looked it almost seemed like I was wearing makeup.” Beato runs a YouTube channel with over five million subscribers, where he’s made nearly 2,000 videos exploring the world of music.

Emergency expenditures are highlighted which include US combat operations “executed at the request of or in coordination with Israel for the defense of Israeli territory, personnel or assets during attacks by Iran” or its proxies.The largest single portion of the funding is $1 billion that is earmarked for replenishing Standard Missile interceptors, specifically the SM-3 IB Threat Upgrade models made by Raytheon and deployed by US Navy ships to intercept ballistic missiles.Each of these big missiles are estimated to be between $9 million and $12 million, and these were used in the initial April 2024 flare-up and brief round of fighting between Israel and Iran.Continue readingBessent: “We May Declare A National Housing Emergency In Fall”by Tyler DurdenTreasury Secretary Scott Bessent told the Washington Examiner on Labor Day that the Trump administration may declare a national housing emergency in the coming months to address the affordability crisis. Bessent’s comments come just ahead of an expected interest-rate cut cycle, underscoring the administration’s urgent effort to address the affordability crisis, which is set to be one of the key topics ahead of the 2026 midterms.Bessent joined the Washington Examiner for breakfast on Labor Day at McLean Family Restaurant on Monday. He told the outlet that President Trump plans to make “affordability” a critical pillar of America First’s 2026 midterm election platform.”We may declare a national housing emergency in the fall,” Bessent told the Washington Examiner.A toxic combination of elevated mortgage rates and record-high home prices has sparked one of the worst housing affordability crises in a generation, sidelining many working-class folks from homeownership.Continue reading“They Can Cut the Internet Now”: China Unveils Diamond-Coated Device That Severs Undersea Cables 13,000 Feet Below Surfaceby Hina DinooIn the realm of deep-sea technology, recent innovations have the potential to transform global communication and military strategy. China has unveiled a powerful new cable-cutting device capable of operating at remarkable depths, raising both intrigue and concern on the international stage. This tool, developed by the China Ship Scientific Research Centre, can disrupt the global data transmission network, which relies heavily on undersea cables. As the world grapples with the implications of this advancement, questions arise about its impact on international security and cooperation. The device embodies the dual-edged nature of technological progress, offering both promise and peril.China’s latest breakthrough in deep-sea innovation is a cable-cutting device with an extraordinary reach of up to 13,123 feet below the ocean’s surface. Developed by the China Ship Scientific Research Centre, this device is integrated into advanced submersibles like the Fendouzhe and Haidou series. It targets the robust, armored cables that form the backbone of global communications, capable of severing them with unprecedented precision. This advancement doubles the reach of existing technologies, marking a significant leap in engineering capabilities.Continue readingHalf Of American Schools Require ‘Equitable’ Grading And Most Teachers Are Opposed: Surveyby Tyler DurdenLackluster student performance has plagued the Schenectady, N.Y., city school district for years.The school district, like many others, implemented a “grading for equity” policy in response to dismal test scores.However, as Aaron Gifford reports below for The Epoch Times, a recent national survey indicates that most teachers feel grade equity actually hurts students long term, although more than half of the schools and districts across the nation engage in the practice.Schenectady’s 2022-2023 academic report said 95 percent of its high school freshmen were behind in math by three or more grade levels.A year later, the district reported that in the first quarter of the 2022-2023 school year, more than half of its middle school students (grades 6-8) were three or more grade levels behind in both reading and math, while the daily attendance rate for high schoolers had dipped below 79 percent.Continue readingBREAKING: First Population-Wide Study Finds COVID-19 “Vaccines” Increase Risk of Multiple Cancersby Nicolas Hulscher, MPHA groundbreaking new peer-reviewed study has just been published in EXCLI Journal. For the first time, researchers formally analyzed the long-term relationship between COVID-19 vaccination and cancer hospitalizations in a population-wide cohort of nearly 300,000 residents of Pescara province, Italy.The study followed every resident aged ≥11 years for 30 months (June 2021 through December 2023) using official National Health Service data. The main vaccines administered were Pfizer-BioNTech (Comirnaty) and Moderna (Spikevax) mRNA shots, with smaller proportions receiving AstraZeneca (Vaxzevria) and Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) viral vector vaccines.Importantly, the statistical models were adjusted for age, sex, comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, COPD, kidney disease), prior cancer, and prior SARS-CoV-2 infection — ensuring that infection status was explicitly taken into account. This makes it the longest and most comprehensive follow-up to date on cancer outcomes after COVID-19 vaccination.Continue readingUS Escalates Its Crawling Aggression on Venezuela as Caracas Prepares Defensesby Michel ChossudovskyThe United States Navy (USN) and Marine Corps (USMC) keep increasing their military presence in the Southern Caribbean, more specifically in the vicinity of Venezuela’s coast. The last days of August saw a significant uptick in their activity, including American warships in eastbound transit through the Panama Canal. Only a week prior, White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt stated that US President Donald Trump was “prepared to use every element of American power to stop drugs from flooding into [the country] and to bring those responsible to justice”, also insisting that “many Caribbean nations and many nations in the region” supposedly “applauded the administration’s counter-drug operations and efforts”.Continue readingWe Are Living Through “the Jeffrey Epstein Genocide”By Kevin Barrett, for Crescent International“Trump should have kept his mouth shut.” That will likely be the consensus of historians tasked with explaining the self-destructive Jeffrey-Epstein-related blurt-outs and blunders of America’s 47th president.If eyeball-rolling could affect the Earth’s rotation, Donald Trump’s textbook “guilty demeanor” around the Jeffrey Epstein scandal—or rather the ensuing ocular twirling and swirling—might exacerbate our planet’s orbital wobble. After Elon Musk tweeted “Trump is in the Epstein files” June 7, Trump reacted by asserting that the whole Epstein issue was “a hoax” invented by Democrats and that the Epstein files were “made up” by Barack Obama and James Comey. (In fact, Epstein’s arrests and prosecutions happened under Bush II and Trump I.)Continue readingThe Greater Taking and How to Stop Itby The Solari ReportOriginally published February, 2024State legislators are fielding growing questions and concerns from constituents about the threat of what has been dubbed “The Great Taking,” specifically referencing risks related to the ownership and custody of securities. David Rogers Webb’s book by that title, which we discussed with David on the Solari Report in December 2023, posits a scenario for a “great taking” of securities upon the failure of major financial intermediaries and the Depository Trust Company, which performs the functions of a central securities depository. We provided a detailed overview of the questions about the Great Taking and the challenges presented by the campaign around it on this week’s Ask Catherine.We share investors’ concerns about the deterioration in the integrity of our legal and financial systems. One of our primary concerns are the devastating takings already well underway, including $21 trillion in missing taxpayer money, dollar devaluation through inflation (the result of unrestrained money printing resulting from fiscal and monetary policies), wars, and a “Great Poisoning” that is siphoning off trillions in family wealth and significantly more of the federal budget than defense.Continue readingCDC Must Create Medical Codes to Track COVID Vaccine Adverse Events, Advocacy Group SaysEtienne Note: Check out our monograph: Solving Covid – The Covid 19 Eugenics, Vaccine/Drug Scam Timeline at and its companion article: The Covid 19 Suspects and Their Ties to Eugenics and Population Control/Reduction to understand who is behind “The Covid”This article was originally published by The Defender — Children’s Health Defense’s News & Views Website.by Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D.Advocates for the vaccine-injured are petitioning the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to establish medical codes to classify injuries and deaths connected to the COVID-19 vaccines.Medical codes are used worldwide “to standardize medical data reporting, and for the purposes of tracking disease patterns in populations,” said Zowe Smith, a former medical coder for an Arizona hospital.The codes are also necessary to track the safety of drugs and vaccines, including adverse events related to vaccination.

In his first term, Trump accelerated Washington’s long-standing strategy of using brutal sanctions to crush the Venezuelan economy while trying to prop up domestic officials aligned with the US government.However, as is often the case, the Venezuelan people haven’t seen the foreign government helping to destroy their economy, or the domestic figures being backed by it, to be worth supporting.

This week the top story is my review of a new documentary, CODEX 9-11, blowing the lid off the false flag attacks of September 11th, 2001! A truly superb effort that benefits from all the researchers who came before but still exposes aspects that I had never heard before and I have read 5+ books, watched at least 10+ documentaries, dozens of short videos, and countless interviews. Really a great summation of how the magicians pulled the trick.
