Smart guy. Bought a place in Fort Myers December 1 last year AFTER the hurricane. Got a great deal on a home that weathered the storm well.
December Greetings!
Speaking of December, I just got a taste of what’s ahead this month, at least in colder northern regions around the world. The photos at this link tell the story:

Today, the adventure continues as I drive to Georgia, or at least to the border.
It’s time to get ready for winter!

“When the US ran the “Soros Imperial USD” playbook in 1981-85, these conditions did not exist; indeed, they were 180-degrees opposite.
Any investors & policymakers citing the early 1980s “Soros Imperial USD” playbook now are operating under a significant misapprehension.”

Pleasanton, California is an upscale city in my neck of the woods.
This is a post from the local “Nextdoor” forum. It gets revenue from letting local businesses advertise, and residents benefit from it.
Nextdoor is listed under the stock symbol KIND.

Today I was at Safeway and I was behind a lady who was probably in her 80s. She was counting out her change to pay for the six items that she was purchasing. I offered to help her out with a $5.00 but she wouldn’t hear of it. She said if she didn’t have the money she would put something back. She ended putting back a can of beans. I purchased my two items and followed her out the store. I asked her if she needed help and she said no, she could manage but then she went on and said that she had received her social security notice for next year and she was actually losing money next year. It was only $15.00 a month but she says every penny counts. She went on to say that she was fortunate that her mortgage was less than $400.00 a month. She had hoped to have her mortgage paid off but with medical bills before her husband passed away made her refinance. She said she has lived in Pleasanton 40 years. She believes that our city is trying to move out anyone on a fixed income. The school bond was the beginning and now the water increase and soon utilities, etc. This is what many of our seniors are dealing with.
I am fortunate to have a pension and will be able to handle the increases for now. But many seniors are struggling and the costs just keep going up. Water rates going up 30%, soon PG&E rates will be going up also. The school bond increased our property taxes this year. And yes the school needed help, but the bond should have been cut back. They hadn’t even finished all the projects from the last bond. Oh and the next senior that says but our property values will drop – ask yourself this – are you planning on selling. If not, don’t worry about it. There has to be a way to look at all the costs when proposing rate increases, bond measures etc. and what these increases will do to the citizens of Pleasanton.

The problem, as Musk laid out, is that while X can sustain without ad revenue for a long time, a complete ad boycott will likely eventually kill X as Musk is unlikely to shoulder the burden of its costs and expenses out of his own pocket indefinitely, and as a result, “what the advertising boycott is going to do is it’s going to kill the company.”
So yes, the only way that corporate management teams will ever stop weaponizing ad dollars – especially if it means losing access to one of the wealthiest audiences, such as that of Zerohedge, or one of the most engaged readership bases such as that of X, is if their shareholders lose enough money and force management to either change or be fired.
Which is why it is time to boycott the boycotters: below we have summarized the names of those companies which have publicly signaled their “virtue” by pulling their ads from X/Musk.

Warner Brothers

Strong stuff, co-signed by some 100 senior officers and about a thousand other members of the military, in a country where the Army is known as “the Great Mute”, i.e. never expressing a preference in national politics.
Yet this week Olivier Véran, the cabinet spokesman, seemed to share those conclusions as, on a visit to the village of Crépol, south of Lyon, he warned that France might be at a “tipping point” after the fatal stabbing of a local 16 year-old boy.

“Essentially, turning Donald J Trump into the center of a surveillance virus.
People then say how could the Jack Smith special counsel possibly comb through all of those users and all of that connected metadata. The answer is Artificial Intelligence; but the serious concern comes when you combine the metadata, AI organization and the previous announcements from DHS.”
Now do you see my point about how radical and fast everything is going to change?
It’s the 2024 election targeting.
“This Data Is A River Of Tears,” He Says. Calls Data “impossible” for NZ Government to Deny. It’s their own data.
A database administrator in New Zealand has given NZ politician, journalist, and attorney Liz Gunn a data leak about deaths following Covid shots in New Zealand that shows what she calls “eye watering” death counts, in some cases over 30% of the injected at a given site died. “This data is a river of tears, and I can’t go on with it,” the man, occasionally breaking down, and seeming to show signs of PTSD, tells Gunn:
“It has to stop now.” He says his data is “…impossible to deny” as it is hard, government data, of 2.2 million people in New Zealand who were injected.

FROM THE ALLOPATHIC MEDICINE AND NUTRITION MODEL IS FULL OF SHIT DEPARTMENT
The vegan diet is a scam. Born of a cult and fueled by false virtue, its purported benefits stem from lies and propaganda designed to physically weaken the human population by depriving it of the healthiest and nutrient-rich sources of fat and protein, necessary for the generation and maintenance of muscle, nerves, and brain tissue. There is no substitute in the plant world. And now we’ve discovered that meat and milk kill cancer cells.
From Toby Rogers Substack
The Black Book of Vaccination
There is compelling evidence that:
…The 1918 Spanish flu epidemic was caused by an experimental bacterial meningitis vaccine injected into soldiers at Fort Riley, Kansas. 50 million dead.
…HIV made the leap from animals to humans via contamination of the early oral polio vaccine. 40 million dead.
…RSV made the leap from animals to humans via contamination of the polio vaccine. 60,000 deaths annually.
…SV40 is a carcinogen that was injected into 100 million Americans via the polio vaccine. As cancer rates skyrocket, the total death toll is unknown.
…Lyme Disease was created by U.S. bioweapons research in the 1970s. There are now 300,000 new cases of Lyme disease every year in the U.S.
…SARS-CoV-2 was created by U.S.-funded gain-of-function research. Seven million dead with/from/adjacent to Covid with many million more killed by Covid shots.

ON WEDNESDAY, the Justice Department announced it had filed charges against a man allegedly working for the Indian government to orchestrate the assassination of a U.S. citizen earlier this year. An Indian government official allegedly instructed Nikhil Gupta, an Indian national, to coordinate the murder of a Sikh separatist living in New York.

I have followed articles by the Martell’s WSOP for at least a decade. First, I commend them for being one of the few investigative journalists left and focusing on taking on big banks and Wall Street brokers. The reason a lot of that work gets diminished, is their total left leaning political bias. A perfecct example is this piece about the GS Apple joint venture. As they point out below, the problem was from the Apple store employee doing what most companies do, incentivizing sales but not supervising the process to prevent fraud. I am sure GS had their faults in the failure of this venture also, but as usual the Martell’s ALWAYS attack the financial, Wall Street firm as oppossed to objectively criticizing Apple’s failings, as well. They will report and criticize both parties politicians, but they are so biased in their attacks on all republicans and their financial supporters. When they do report on a criticism of dems, they rarely call out their financial backers, especially if they are the usual dem financial sources and powerbrokers. True investigative reporters should not be almost as bad as the MSM. They provide very good insight on stories that don’t get much, if any, coverage elsewhere, but it has been clear over the years I have read them, that they hate every GOP politician and financial backer.

He warned in an interview with Germany’s Die Welt newspaper that authorities will be powerless to stop this new coming crime wave, which will see criminals use AI tools to fleece potentially millions out of their money.
“AI is a great tool, but of course cybercriminals also use it to create phishing emails in order to have ChatGPT write malicious code that can be used immediately. And we haven’t yet talked about deepfakes and voice phishing, i.e., faces and voices are recreated. We are currently seeing the start of a revolutionary development in cybercrime. Next year, the year after that, this will have reached a whole new level,”
The gold chart suggests a possible short term temporary gold top around 2100+ between today and middle of next week. If 2100 is reached lots of headlines and commentary would be generated. That would be a logical place for a temporary top and pullback that could last anywhere from a few days or as long as until year end. Much, much higher prices in 2024.

A male passenger on a five-hour flight to Russia was allegedly the victim of oral rape, after a sex-crazed 29-year-old blonde woman named Valeria insisted on blowing him after departing from Antalya, Turkey.
“On a flight from Antalya to Moscow, a female passenger went on a rampage and [orally] raped her [male] neighbour,”
‘She pulled down his trousers and committed violent acts of a sexual nature.
‘Later the neighbour stopped resisting.

For instance, it was recently revealed that the White House, relying on a set of privacy loopholes, has been sidestepping the Fourth Amendment by paying AT&T to allow federal, state, and local law enforcement to access—without a warrant—the phone records of Americans who are not suspected of a crime. This is how the government routinely breaks the law and gets away with it: in the so-called name of national security.
The Fourth Amendment was intended to serve as a protective forcefield around our persons, our property, our activities, our communications and our movements. It keeps the government out of our private business except in certain, extenuating circumstances.
what we really need is a government that respects the rights of the citizenry and obeys the law.
