Man charged in ‘largest jewelry heist in U.S. history,’ avoids trial by self deporting – LA Times

  • A suspect in the largest jewelry heist in U.S. history was deported to Ecuador, halting his prosecution for the $100 million Brinks truck theft.
  • Federal prosecutors say they were unaware of the deportation and still want to prosecute, while the defendant’s attorney asked that the case be dismissed
  • The deportation raises questions about federal agency coordination, with most stolen merchandise still unrecovered and jewelers questioning whether it could have been prevented.

Greentanamo: Trump Deal Gives US Sovereignty Over Small Pockets Of Greenland For Military Bases

The NYT goes on to note that according to two of the officials, who attended the meeting, the deal compares “to the United Kingdom’s bases in Cyprus, which are regarded as British territory.

In other words, while the US will go from having a military base in Greenland on semi-autonomous territory to… having a base in Greenland on autonomous territory, all Trump needs to do is change the name of the island to Greentanamo and declare victory, and the entire episode will be forgotten.

DJT modus operandi — coming in hard up front and then horse trade down to what he wanted in the first place! It is MASTER class sales technique & executed perfectly. You can win in negotiations like these by asking “please”! All those that were upset will now claim victory that they “talked him down” when in fact he lost nothing and gained much — very significant win for USA!  The indigineous peoples of Greenland seem to be the big losers as their opportunity for “visibility” was crushed by this deal.  

Michael Oliver: T-Bond Nuclear Panic Will Send Silver VIOLENTLY to $300–$500 | Gold to $8,000

In a rare, no-spin interview with Daniela Cambone, veteran market technician Michael Oliver dropped a warning few are prepared to hear. This is not a bull market—it’s a regime shift. After four decades in the trenches and a prescient call ahead of the 1987 crash, Oliver says the system has crossed a critical threshold.

Oliver’s momentum models point to chaos in paper markets—and eye-watering targets ahead: silver at $300–$500, gold at $8,000. Buckle up.

Poland to Buy 150 Tons More Gold, Approves up to 36.6% Held

Poland’s central bank has approved a plan to purchase up to 150 tons of gold, reinforcing its position as the world’s largest reported sovereign buyer and accelerating a reserve strategy that could place the country among the top ten gold-holding nations globally.

The National Bank of Poland said Tuesday the new purchases would significantly expand its bullion holdings, which already reached 550 tons at the end of 2025 following a record 100-ton accumulation last year, the largest declared central-bank purchase reported to the International Monetary Fund. At current market prices, the new buying program would be worth nearly $23 billion and exceed the total gold reserves of several large economies, including Brazil and Mexico.

CLANDESTINE

Military Police are reportedly being prepared for mobilization to Minneapolis.

Look at the presence in Minneapolis:

-3000+ DHS/ICE
-1500+ 11th Airborne on standby
-500+ NG QRF on standby
-Undisclosed DOJ/FBI agents
-Hundreds of MPs on standby

Something is about to go down.

Trump is preparing to invoke the Insurrection Act so the US MIL can carry out arrests in Minneapolis, presumably related to the massive fraud scandal.

Brandt Rant

I owe many of you on X an apology. The stuff in Minnesota (home of my youth) has made me furious — clueless politicians who would have been lucky to have been on my high school student government, immigrants from countries that hate America and have baked into their genes the need to cheat and steal and Karens and their low T little boy men whose place in the story is to yell the F bomb, hold signs, blow whistles and harass brave men and women assigned to a law enforcement job that is tough and demanding and take them away from their families. The politicians I despise. The Somalis — they need to be shipped back if they are guilty of fraud, whether they are citizens or not. Call me racist — that’s ok, I can handle your clueless brain too. But this post is about the protesters. I have been angry beyond reason at them. But I think I have moved past the anger to something else. I have moved from anger to pity. I have pity on them. I have come to realize they are losers and deep down inside they know they have come up short in life. They have fallen short of their earlier aspirations. They hate themselves deep down and are not even aware of this. The anger they are showing is really self loathing coming to the surface. Their anger is pointed at ICE as the proxy for Trump, but the anger is their own. They just do not have the character enough to look themselves in the mirror and acknowledge themselves to be the disappointment they deeply know themselves to be. They don’t have anything better to do. Their lives’ stories are shallow, without deeper meaning or purpose. So they have the time to go lunatic yelling F_Y_ to men just trying to remove criminals from their city. I now look upon the protesters with sadness, with pity. If you have the urge right now to troll me back with some stupid comment I would prefer if you just unfollow or block me. I would rather not have you on my stream.

I think JC summarized Carney the best (Is Carney short for Carnival…..cue the circus music)

If I understood the Prime Minister correctly, Carney was inviting other “middle-power” governments to join him in opposing the United States, after conceding that “Great Powers” run the show. “Middle powers must act together because, if we’re not at the table, we’re on the menu,” Carney soberly told them. His idea was that if they all work together, they can stand up to the Great Power (America)— like the plucky ants overthrowing the bullying grasshoppers in that Pixar movie. (I think it was A Bug’s Life.)

In that sense, Carney compared himself to an insect, which was probably the most accurate metaphor in his silly speech. He might consider that, outside of Pixar movies, ants get squashed or sprayed with Roundup. But the irony cut to even deeper levels. Carney seemed to be calling for some kind of populist uprising among middle-tier nations —even though he’s a classic bankster globalist— and his solution to opposing one Great Power is to cozy up to another, even more authoritarian one. In other words, as Spock would say, illogical.

To please my Trekkie readers, here’s what the Canadian PM was actually saying, in Trek terms: “The needs of the many middle powers outweigh the needs of the one great power— unless another great power has better trade deals, in which case the needs of the many middle powers are best served by subordinating themselves to the other great power instead.”

Trump’s message for Mark Carney.

  • Bernd Lange, chair of European Parliament’s Committee on International Trade, said the committee would also discuss the possible use of the bloc’s anti-coercion ‘trade bazooka’.
  • Earlier, Bundesbank president Joachim Nagel told CNBC he was hopeful of a solution to the “very problematic situation.”

Historical Analogs

Everywhere you look, financial commentators and video content producers, display charts and tables for all kinds of financial, historic analogs.  Many of them are useful, while some, depending on what is being compared, are quite valid.  The topic of many, refer to precious metals, where it is important to differentiate why some things are valid comparisons, while others, are not.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           In the case of precious metals, especially Silver, BOTH are true.  Let me explain.  When you see all the analog charts and tables of how gold and silver performed in the past, they do provide perspective, however they are not directly comparable because many factors are different.  The early PM runups were either back when gold was fixed at $35/oz and silver at $1.29 and it was illegal to own gold from 1933 until 1976.  In the case of silver you could own it, but it was removed from coinage after 1964 and there was still a surplus of silver for decades after.  Now, there is so much more industrial demand and usage and it has been in a deficit supply situation for six years.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      The other big reason things are different, is that while Gold was managed by the central banks for decades, rule changes and the decline of the dollar’s value, have had central banks and governments buying it hand over fist for ten years.  Silver has gone from a 40+ year suppression scheme of massive paper shorts, to unwinding those naked shorts as a result of banks facing the economic reality they can no longer fight the tide of dwindling physical supply and likely government mandates to stop the naked short selling of paper contracts.  Where does that leave us?  With the ONE historical analog that is the most likely outcome.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                London based YouTube provider Mario Inneco has been studying PM’s since the early 2000’s and been comparing for years(with charts and tables) the historical analog of where gold stands, currently compared to the hyper inflation in Weimar Germany during the 1920’s.  While there are always differences in historical analogs, I believe this is the best guide for what is likely coming in the months to come.  One can make a case that given the level of debt, the fact that the US dollar is the global reserve currency, and that this is probably the only time in history that all countries are and have been using fiat, rather than sound, physical precious metals for over 50 years, the coming hyper inflation is going to make what happened in Weimar Germany, look like a mild version of what is about to occur.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                The one hope, and it is only hope, with no visible evidence, that the Trump administration has a plan that will avoid such a catastrophe.   I doubt it.  Better to hope for the best, but be prepared for the worst.  It may not guarantee survival, but should greatly increase the odds of doing so.

Melting Down

Now add the geopolitical layer. There is now a fear that economic warfare may begin between the US and Europe. When governments start threatening tariffs, economic retaliation, and territorial disputes, capital flees. Europe is sitting on a mountain of US debt. If just a tiny fraction of that begins to flee, the impact could become a contagion. That’s when yields rise, liquidity becomes strained, and the government has to roll debt at higher rates.

Foreign investors hold roughly 20–25% of all outstanding US Treasury debt, which translates into about $8–$9 trillion. European investors are the largest regional block of foreign holders of U.S. long-term Treasuries. Eurozone investors alone account for roughly one-fifth of total foreign long-term Treasury holdings. So when tensions rise through NATO disputes, capital begins to reassess what “risk-free” means.

If you look at Europe’s NATO countries collectively, we’re talking about several trillion dollars in US Treasuries and other dollar assets. Estimates in the financial press place European NATO holdings around $2.8 trillion in Treasuries alone.

Australia Passes New Bills For Tougher Gun Control And Anti-Hate Speech Laws

The Australian Parliament has passed two new bills that will set up a national gun buyback scheme, and attempt to combat anti-Semitism and hate speech in response to the Bondi terror attack.

The law does not require proof that hatred was actually generated or that a victim felt fear—only that the conduct itself would reasonably cause intimidation or fear.
