Dr. Pippa Malmgren: The New Cold War – It’s In Your Fridge

Prior to the COVID lockdown and well before the tanks rolled into Ukraine, I was trying to help audiences understand the nature of the evolving conflict among the superpowers. But, people didn’t feel the superpowers were in a true confrontation. They were careful to keep their confrontations out of the public eye.

Dr. Pippa Malmgren: PUMP

This week I received a very insightful email about central bank digital currencies.

There will be a Great Re-set, of course, but it’s not exactly the one that Western Civ is blabbering about — a mere shuffling of political and financial protocols.

Leo Hohmann: Forget about Biden, Trudeau, Macron and the rest of the WEF’s puppet politicians: It’s the system that’s broken

People’s attention is too focused on Biden and Trump and not enough on the sweeping global transformation that is going on, and speeches like the one Biden delivered on September 1 are meant to keep us distracted and diverted (and to divide and conquer)….

They are manifested in extreme weather events, including heat waves and droughts; more, larger and hotter forest fires; sudden deluges that swell rivers and break dikes, causing widespread damage to farms, towns, roads & bridges.

Dr. Sircus: Kicking the Guts Out of a Civilization with Climate Insanity

by Dr. Mark Sircus: The headlines read: “Climate scientist says total climate breakdown is now inevitable: It is already a different world out there, soon it will be unrecognizable to every one of us.” You know that was designed to scare the daylights out of you.

Jeffrey Tucker: It’s Worse Than Anyone Wants to Admit

The news about GDP on July 28 was entirely consumed in the throes of another definition change. What everyone understood is that what it means to be in a recession has been suddenly changed by government edict. It’s not a recession, they say…
