Stand by for a deception operation to derail November’s elections

  While everybody on the right of US politics is getting excited about a potential “Red Wave” in November, I’ve been watching the left of US politics.  They don’t appear overly worried or dejected by what they see in opinion polls or media commentary.  In fact, they’re doubling down on their message that it’s all… Continue reading Stand by for a deception operation to derail November’s elections

A school shooting successfully stopped – but the mainstream media ignore it

  I’ve only just become aware of this report from June this year.  It seems to have been ignored by the mainstream news media – probably because it had a happy ending, instead of turning into a tragedy. Duncanville police said no children were hurt when an armed man entered the facility where a summer camp… Continue reading A school shooting successfully stopped – but the mainstream media ignore it

The food situation, here and worldwide

  This blog post is not, repeat, NOT designed to make you afraid, or scare you into “prepping” if you’re not already there, or anything like that.  Its intention is to simply present facts, and let you make up your own mind what you need to do to prepare for the shortages that are coming. … Continue reading The food situation, here and worldwide

Are you, or will you soon be, dependent on pension income? If so, READ THIS.

  Epsilon Theory has published an in-depth review of Britain’s financial crisis over the past couple of weeks, as its major pension funds were pushed right to the brink of bankruptcy by a liquidity crunch that threatened to take the entire British banking sector down with them.  The crisis was averted – for now –… Continue reading Are you, or will you soon be, dependent on pension income?

Sounds like a realistic, pragmatic priest – no wonder he’s been suspended

  I note this report with displeasure. Mexico’s Roman Catholic Church has suspended a controversial priest who has advised parishioners to carry guns to fight off drug cartels. Better known as “Father Pistolas,” Rev. Alfredo Gallegos is a priest in the violence-plagued western state of Michoacan who has himself sometimes carried a weapon. A circular… Continue reading Sounds like a realistic, pragmatic priest – no wonder he’s been suspended

Wow. China’s high-tech economy just took a major boot to the knackers…

  A recent move by the Biden administration has really put the boot into China’s high-tech industries.  In a series of tweets, Jordan Schneider sums up the situation.  Here’s part of Threadreader’s condensed version. The US government’s new export controls are wreaking havoc on China’s chip industry. New rules around “US persons” are driving an… Continue reading Wow. China’s high-tech economy just took a major boot to the knackers…

If it’s not safe, it doesn’t matter how nice a place may be

  Jeffrey Carter puts his finger on a universal truth – one that the current administration and its hangers-on don’t seem to recognize. No one is truly safe anywhere in the urban jungle these days given the way violence against people has been randomized. A lot of wealthy people I know in NYC, Chicago, and… Continue reading If it’s not safe, it doesn’t matter how nice a place may be

An organized terrorist threat from illegal aliens?

  Trevor Loudon thinks that may not be far-fetched. After leading open opposition to then-Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez in 2002, former Venezuelan lieutenant in the National Guard Jose Antonio Colina Pulido fled to the U.S. in 2003 to seek political asylum. He has been living in exile in the U.S. ever since. He has provided… Continue reading An organized terrorist threat from illegal aliens?

Hurricane Ian highlights another important need in a disaster

  In the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Ian, hundreds of thousands of Floridians found that their cellphones did not work.  The towers were inoperative, either due to storm damage or because their power had been cut off.  Many were repaired within a day or two, but apparently several hundred cellphone towers are still not working,… Continue reading Hurricane Ian highlights another important need in a disaster

An FBI whistleblower alleges abuses

  I highly recommend paying close attention to an FBI whistleblower’s case as it unfolds.  The New York Post reports: Bombshell allegations by FBI Special Agent Steve Friend contained in a whistleblower complaint filed late Wednesday with the Department of Justice inspector general reveal a politicized Washington, DC, FBI field office cooking the books to… Continue reading An FBI whistleblower alleges abuses
