And Zelensky :

Zelensky stated that he is waiting for the death of Donald Trump. At a press conference, he said that the US position on Ukraine’s NATO membership could change when “politicians change or someone dies.” Direct quote: “The United States does not currently see us in NATO. Everything in our life is ‘for now.’ The position may change in the future. Politicians change, some live, some die.”

“I pledged to give America the most spectacular birthday party the world has ever seen for America’s 250th anniversary on July 4th next year. Already, we’ve had big celebrations to commemorate the 250th birthdays of the Army, the Navy, and the United States Marines, but there is much, much more to come. We’re going to have a good time.”

Don’t know if it will build on the gains so far today, but GOLD is real close to breaking out. Even if tomorrow’s likely market chaos causes it to not follow through immediately, it should do so with a big upward move next week.  Watching closely, may not wait even until then?

The European Union serves as a warning of what happens when ideology trumps physics. Climate mandates cannot make the wind blow. The “green” emperor has no clothes, and, baby, it’s cold outside…

Bureaucrats in Brussels and politicians in Berlin have spent decades lecturing the world on the moral necessity to abandon hydrocarbons. They have constructed a narrative of the European Union as a shining city powered by the breeze and sun, modeling a net-zero utopia. 

Yet, when the first real chill of winter settled over the continent this fall, that facade collapsed under the weight of physical reality.

……..Herein lies the supreme irony of the story: An anti-fossil fuel, anti-drilling European Union is keeping its population alive only because of a pro-fossil fuel, pro-human administration across the Atlantic.

It comes as MI6 declared a shadow war with Russia

In a chilling prediction of what it might take to deter a full-scale conflict, Air Chief Marshal Sir Richard Knighton said: “More families will know what sacrifice for our nation means.”

And he echoed the French General Fabien Mandon who sparked fury across the Channel last month by saying that France lacked the will to “lose its children”.

It’s interesting that all these articles appeared simultaneously AND that they all (basically) contain the same message just slightly re-written.  One might surmise that a single MI6 operative (or similar agency) wrote and emailed them to senior editors with instructions on when to publish. A new psyop underway to convince UK citizens to enlist and match the sacrifices of  NATO’s Ukrainian proxy. The direction is war – there is no time for peace – only UK citizens need apply – unlikely that migrants would ever be conscripted – besides they need more citizen homes to house the great replacement. 

HE ALSO CLAIMED THERE WOULD BE AMERICAN BOOTS ON THE GROUND IN IRAN DURING THE BRIEF “WAR” …BTW HAS ANYBODY HEARD FROM IRAN LATELY ?

TUCKER IS LOSING CREDIBILITY IMO

Members of Congress were briefed yesterday that a war is coming and it’ll be announced in the address to the nation tonight at 9 o’clock by the president,’ Carlson told the Judge Napolitano podcast on Wednesday.

……….

Trump got every liberal outlet out there to broadcast his speech live because they thought he was declaring war in Venezuela.

Instead, he focused on healthcare and affordability.

The main reason Trump gave this address, is because the MSM won’t report on Trump’s accomplishments.

Trump essentially had to bait the MSM into thinking he was declaring war with Venezuela, just to get 15 minutes of positive Trump coverage on their networks.

Rob Reiner’s dead. I know I’m supposed to care about this but I don’t. I do think, however, it means a lot more than anyone wants to admit because they’ve refused to see the war for what it is, one between foreign and domestic intelligence assets and the current administration.

Meathead was a part of that and there are a lot of questions in my mind about his death.

As with Charlie Kirk, so with seemingly all high-profile shootings: Commentators swiftly discard official narratives of a “lone gunman” and, after the template established by the Kennedy assassination, claim that the shooting is impossible to explain without positing a wider plot of secret state-level actors.

The rise of the East and the decline of the West can largely be explained by the relative power of private capital versus the state.

In East Asian countries — Japan, Singapore, and South Korea throughout the twentieth century, and more recently China and Vietnam — profit-seeking capital has not dictated the direction of investment. Instead, the state *governs* the market. This has enabled strategic long-term planning and the successful implementation of industrial policy.

By contrast, the West — especially the United States —has become so deeply financialized and so heavily influenced by private capital that investment decisions are overwhelmingly driven by short-term profits and the maximization of shareholder value. Long-term, productive investments that benefit the real economy have increasingly become a pipe dream.

FBI doubted probable cause for Mar-a-Lago raid but pushed forward amid pressure from Biden DOJ, emails reveal

‘Very little has been developed related to who might be culpable for mishandling the documents,’ an FBI official wrote

The FBI did not believe it had probable cause to raid President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in 2022, but moved forward amid pressure from the Biden Justice Department, with an official saying he didn’t “give a damn about the optics” of the search, newly declassified documents reviewed by Fox News Digital reveal.

Newhouse was one of 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach President Donald Trump after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack at the Capitol.

“This decision comes with no reservations or remorse, only gratitude for the tremendous opportunity to have represented my home state in Congress,” Newhouse wrote in a statement.

His departure from Capitol Hill could leave Rep. David Valadao (R-Calif.) as the only remaining House Republican who voted to impeach Trump serving after November’s election. But Valadao faces a tough reelection in a battleground district. And on the Senate side, where many who voted to convict Trump have already left or announced plans to retire, GOP Sens. Bill Cassidy (La.) and Susan Collins (Maine) are facing competitive races this cycle. Should they lose, it could leave Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) as the only GOP senator who voted against Trump remaining.
