MISINFORMATION CUTS BOTH WAYS
SINCE WE LOST SILVERFOX WE HAVE NOT BEEN FOLLOWING THE DURAN NEARLY AS MUCH
DURING THE BIDEN YEARS WE FOLLOWED THE ALEXES DAILY
AS A GROUP WE KNOW WHO THE REAL ENEMY IS AND IT’S NOT RUSSIA…ITS THE GLOBAL CABAL…THE US NEOCONS ..INCLUDING NATO
SO WE WERE HIGHLIGHING ANALYSTS LIKE THE DURAN AND OTHERS WHO WERE LITERALLY CHEERING RUSSIA AND PUTIN ON
DAY AFTER DAY WE WERE TOLD RUSSIA IS WINNING . RUSSIA IS THRIVING INSPITE OF SANCTIONS. WE FOLLOWED EVERY BATTLE FOR EVERY SMALL HAMLET EXPECTING RUSSIA TO COMPLETELY CONQUER UKRAINE AND THAT LITTLE PRICK ZALENSKYY AT ANY MOMENT AND TEACH THE CABAL A LESSON…BUT 4 YEARS IN THE RUSSIANS ARE MAKING NO PROGRESS EVEN AS AMERICANS HAVE ALL BUT ABANDONED UKRAINE
UKRAINE AND RUSSIA ARE NOT IN THE NEWS NEARLY AS MUCH BUT THE DURAN IS STILL FOLLOWING AND REPORTING DAILY
…SINCE TRUMP TOOK OVER THEY HAVE CONTINUED TO BASH THE USA AS IF HE IS STILL WORKING FOR THE GLOBAL CABAL AND AS IF THE USA IS A DYING EMPIRE STILL CONTROLLED BY NEOCONS AND OF COURSE ISRAEL WHICH IS BEIG REPLACED BY RUSSIA CHINA IRAN ET AL. THEY TREAT TRUMP LIKE HE IS A BUFFOON ….THERE ARE MANY ALIGNED “ANALYSTS” IN THIS GROUP WHO WE USED TO FOLLOW HERE…SIMPLICIUS , LARRY JOHNSON , DOUG MACGREGOR , DIMA FROM THE WAR CHANNEL , GARLAND NIXON , SCOTT RITTER ETC. THEY ALL SIT AROUND AND INTERVIEW EACHOTHER AND SNICKER AT THE US ACTION IN IRAN …IRAN IS WINNING ..TRUMP IS FUCKED ETC AN ON AND ON
SO HERE IS MY POINT. THE HEADLINE OF THE LATEST DURAN READS AS FOLLOWS
The Duran: “Russian economy: SANCTIONS backfire, return to growth, investment surge”
BUT THE TRUTH IS
SEE FIRST COMMENT
BOTTOM LINE THESE GUYS ARE CHEERING IRAN RUSSIA AND CHINA ON AND ARE FORCASTING WITH GLEE THE DEMISE IF THE USA EVEN THOUGH TRUMP AND COMP ARE FIGHTING TO DESTROY THE GLOBAL CABAL WHOM THEY CLAIM ARE THE REAL ENEMY ….THEY DO NOT WANT HIM TO SUCCEED …I FIND THAT STARANGE …MY CONCLUSION IS THEY ARE ALL PAID AGENTS …NEVER A DISCOURAGING WORD AGAINST THEIR PAYMASTERS
ADDED
THE SUB HEADLINE TO THE DURAN PIECE IS…RUSSIAS GDP PER CAPITA RIVALS BRITAIN ….LOL…AND NO FURTHER COMMENT
I SAW AN ARTICLE THAT SAYS RUSSIAN ECONOMY IS CONTRACTING THIS YEAR
Copilot said:
Short answer: the article you saw is partly right — but you have to be careful with wording.
What’s actually happening (latest 2026 data)
Russia’s economy did contract in early 2026
GDP fell about ?0.2% to ?0.3% in Q1 2026 (first quarterly contraction in ~3 years).
That’s likely what your article was referring to.
But that does NOT mean the full year is expected to shrink
Most major forecasts (IMF, etc.) say:
2026 fullyear GDP growth: ~0.8%–1.1% (positive)
tradingeconomics
Russia is expected to have very weak growth, not a full recession
So:
Short-term (quarter): contraction
Full year: still small growth expected
Why you’re seeing “contraction” headlines
There are a few reasons:
1. Real slowdown from 2024
2024 growth: ~4–5%
2025–2026: drops to ~1% or less
tradingeconomics
That’s a sharp slowdown, which often gets described dramatically.
2. Early 2026 weakness
Output fell early in the year (Jan–March)
Some sectors outside defense are already shrinking
themoscowtimes
3. Forecast cuts
Russia recently cut its own 2026 growth outlook to around 0.4%
firstpost
That reinforces the “weak economy” narrative.
What economists would say (clean interpretation)
Russia is likely entering a phase of:
stagnation / very low growth
not necessarily a deep recession (yet)
So the most accurate description is:
“The Russian economy is slowing sharply and had a weak quarter, but is still expected to grow slightly over the full year.”
Agree with you Fully. You didn’t mention all of the others that have fallen off the wagon like Tucker etc.. Yes Even Steve Bannon. That one surprised me for sure. I like Scott Ritter et al but no longer care to listen to these guys as I think they have lost to big picture and don’t see the overall strategy.
Yes Fully, “AS A GROUP WE KNOW WHO THE REAL ENEMY IS AND IT’S NOT RUSSIA…ITS THE GLOBAL CABAL…THE US NEOCONS ..INCLUDING NATO” And I would add, it’s not Iran!
In my opinion, Russia is slowly winning the NATO/US proxy war, and Iran is holding US/Israel at bay.
Maybe “SIMPLICIUS , LARRY JOHNSON , DOUG MACGREGOR , DIMA FROM THE WAR CHANNEL , GARLAND NIXON , SCOTT RITTER ETC.” are telling some truth! Calling out bad US foreign policy does NOT make you a traitor to MAGA.
Initially, I thought President Trump was doing a great job, but he lied to his supporters when he promised no more wars. President Trump is obviously under great stress, and who knows what secret weapons are being used against him.
The wars with Russia and Iran could be just what brings about the Greater Depression, and perhaps the Great Reset. Time will tell.
THIS IS NOT THE BEGINNING OF A WAR…IT IS THE ENDING OF A WAR THAT HAS BEEN WAGED FOR 5 DECADES BY THE AGENT OF TERROR
IRAN IS CONTROLLED BY A TERRORIST CABAL …THEIR STATED MISSION IS DEATH TO AMERICA…THAT IS THE CHANT THEY RECITE EVERY DAY IN THEIR PARLAIMENT ….DO YOU THINK THEY ARE JUST KIDDING ?
IT IS OBVIOUS THE NATIONS WITH THE MOST TO LOSE IF IRAN GETS NUKES ( THE GULF STATES ) KNOW THIS AND THEY ARE COMPLETELY ON BOARD WITH THIS OPERATION …COMPLETELY ALIGNED AND WORKING WITH THE USA …AND…ISRAEL…TO NEUTRALIZE THIS EXISTENTIAL THREAT ONCE AND FOR ALL
DO YOU NOT SEE IRAN WITH NUKES AS A THREAT…? IT IS NOW ACKNOWLEDGED BY EVERYONE INCLUDING IRAN THAT THEY WANT TO HAVE NUKES AND THEY HAVE 1000 LBS OF 60% ENRICHED URANIUM ON THE WAY TO FULL ENRICHMENT WITHIN A SHORT TIME. IT IS NOW BURRIED DEEP AND UNDER SURVEILANCE FROM SPACE FORCE
THIS IS NOT A NEW WAR…IT IS AN ONGOING WAR AGAIST A TERRORIST STATE AND ITS TERRORIST PROXIES WHO WOULD CONTROL THE WORLDS ENERGY CORRIDORS
WAKE UP MAN…YOUR TAKE IS CHILDISHLY SIMPLISTIC
NO ITS NOT and stop with the ALL CAPS.
I think Briguy has it exactly correct.
Trump has cards to play. But he is playing them because he has to. He is fighting the clock.
His own. The global Everything Bubble. The political calendar. His “GOP Allies”.
He’s a builder, with vision, and determination.
But he’s also BOXED IN.
I need someone to believe in, someone to trust
I’d rather trust a man who doesn’t shout what he’s found
There’s no need to sell if you’re homeward bound
If I choose a side, he won’t take me for a ride
TO PROVE THE POINT THAT TRUMP AND COMP ARE ACTING INDEPENDENTLY OF THE NEOCONS ….KAGAN ( HUSBAND OF VICTORIA NULAND ….THE NEOCON IN CHIEF) JUST POSTED AN ARTICLE SAYING THAT TRUMPS ATTACK ON IRAN WAS ILL ADVISED AND HE IS LOOSING…THAT IS WHAT THE NEOCONS ARE SAYING…THEY DO NOT SUPPORT THIS PARTICULAR OPERATION…WHY ? BECAUSE THEY NEED AN AGENT OF TERROR…THEY NEED CHAOS…THEY NEED CONSTANT WAR
TRUMP BROKERED THE END OF 8 WARS WORLD WIDE INCLUDING A CEASEFIRE BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HAMAS AND NOW BETWEEN ISRAEL AND LEBANON….
SHEESH MAN OPEN YOUR EYES IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY….BUT WITH THIS ‘ATTITUDE” I DONT EXPECT YOU TO BE CAPABLE OF SEEING WHAT IS RIGHT BEFORE YOU
Someone does need to open their eyes and stop shouting. Perhaps read some of those analysts who no longer support Trump, and try to understand why.
In the past we found that being a perma-bull was not always financially healthy.
Same for being perma-Trump! Trump is human. He makes mistakes. His big ego prevents him from coming clean.
I WILL ALWAYS POST ALL CAPS…IT’S NOT SHOUTING UNLESS YOU SAY IT IS…IT’S MY THING ….WHEN YOU SEE ALL CAPS WHY DO YOU ASSOCIATE IT WITH SHOUTING ?
TO YOU HEAR IT LOUDER IN OUR HEAD WHEN YOU READ ALL CAPS ? WHO MADE ALL CAPS LOUDER THAN ALL LOWER CASE ?
I STARTED TO DO IT BECAUSE OF SPELL CHECK CORRECTING EVERY SECOND WORD …I AM A POOR SPELER (SP) AND CANT BE BOTHERED TO CORRECT EVRYTHING (SP)
PS…IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ALL CAPS AND ALL BOLD ?
