Germany Preparing for World War III ASAP?

It is expected that Trump will reimpose heavy sanctions on Iran and extend those sanctions to any other countries that defy them…

Contrary to widely expressed fears in Canada, there is plenty of room for the Canadian government of either major party to work cooperatively with the new American administration on most fronts. A couple of months ago, I had occasion to ask then-candidate Donald Trump whether Canada had anything to fear if he were elected. He said: “Your trade negotiators are better than ours, but all I’m asking is fair trade which is not a big problem with Canada.” He added that he knows the country well, has done lots of business here, and has nothing but liking and goodwill for Canada.

The Netherlands follows several EU countries, including Germany, Austria, France, and Denmark, in restricting free movement along its borders…

“For four months, I have been hearing around me: ‘Not allowed, not possible, not going to do it.’ But I will not be discouraged. I am the minister who is taking concrete measures to really get a grip on migration. We must do whatever it takes,”

Big fines for media outlets that push anti-natalist messaging…

Russia’s ban on propaganda promoting a ‘childless lifestyle’ across all forms of media has passed the State Duma in a bid to address the country’s “catastrophic” demographic decline.

“Everything needs to be done to make sure that new generations of Russians grow up with a focus on traditional family values,”

The legislation also restricts the international adoption of Russian children in countries where transgender ideology is dominant, prohibiting them from being adopted by parents who live in places where gender reassignment via medical surgery or changing official documents is legal.

Bloody commies — focusing on solid traditional family Christian values — how dare they poison the minds of their citizens — don’t they understand that they should rejoice owning nothing to be happy — Schwab won’t be happy when he hears about this!!

“Is there a movement of sheriffs in the United States whose allegiance to the Constitution overrides dictates from the Federal Government? Longtime law enforcement veteran Sheriff Joseph Mack would say that the answer is Yes. In this fascinating discussion, he explains why sheriffs work for no one but their own townspeople, and thus that they do not need to take orders from the Federal government, and cannot indeed enforce those orders if they are unconstitutional.”

Donald Trump’s re-election in the United States will not impact Canada’s commitment to fighting climate change, Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault said Tuesday. Guilbeault is in Azerbaijan this week for the annual United Nations climate change conference, which includes discussions about each country’s progress toward lowering their greenhouse gas emissions as committed under the Paris agreement.

Countries outside the eurozone but inside the European Union, i.e., those that one day might join the eurozone—like Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic, are positioning for a new gold standard. To prepare for a monetary system based on gold, they are buying gold to equalize their reserves to the eurozone average.

As the United States, issuer of the world reserve currency, has arrived at a critical phase in its debt spiral and as geopolitical tensions keep mounting, it’s of paramount importance we evaluate what gold’s role will be in the international monetary system moving forward.

He’s going to not only tax, but confiscate the endowments of every university that the Department of Justice finds has engaged in illegal discrimination under the guise of “equity”.

Which is basically every university in the country, but is especially the DIEvy League, which, if this happens, will die.

This will crush one of the enemy’s primary power centers.

If he goes through with this, it’s a Henry VIII moment. Dissolution of the monasteries. Vast quantities of capital liquidated and removed from the control of his political enemies … and vast intellectual capital liberated from the cloistered, cloying oversight of midwit administrators.

Anyone else having a problem with X this morning ?

Just a quick heads up that various Wavers have been alerting their followers that a large correction is looming ‘around year end.’ I’ve posted elsewhere, to be careful as early as Dec.
As usual, they are not all on the same page at higher degrees. But most appear to be calling for roughly -20% before a last rally to further new highs before its done. And by “IT”, most think IT is the bull market going back to ’32 (or ’42) or even before.
So its late innings End of Empire stuff.

Locally, I see Europe already losing favor (flows to US), China stalling, Japan uneasy, Brazil ragged. Materials, bioteks are weak. CRE too with yields up again. But banks still strong, NVDA headed for more highs, VOLs still not terribly worried. Junk is still solid. Generals holding the fort, but the periphery is in trouble.

Re gold, my FSG clone (etf – UGL to SSO) has gone nowhere since 2021, meaning gold is up but not relative to SPX. Miners are worse as a group. YMMV. FSG is currently on a fresh VLT sell, so good luck buying dips.

The Trump transition team is considering a draft executive order that establishes a “warrior board” of retired senior military personnel with the power to review three- and four-star officers and to recommend removals of any deemed unfit for leadership.

If Donald Trump approves the order, it could fast-track the removal of generals and admirals found to be “lacking in requisite leadership qualities,” according to a draft of the order reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. But it could also create a chilling effect on top military officers, given the president-elect’s past vow to fire “woke generals,” referring to officers seen as promoting diversity in the ranks at the expense of military readiness.

As commander in chief, Trump can fire any officer at will, but an outside board whose members he appoints would bypass the Pentagon’s regular promotion system, signaling across the military that he intends to purge a number of generals and admirals.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has offered what he called “total support” for Africa, including in the struggle against terrorism and extremism.

The speech was read out at a summit in the Black Sea resort of Sochi by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov to his African counterparts.

Several African governments have cut ties with traditional Western allies and are looking to Moscow for help in tackling frequent attacks by jihadists.

During the summit, Burkina Faso’s Foreign Minister Karamoko Jean-Marie Traoré said Russia was a more suitable international partner than the former colonial power, France.

Topline: Five people, including three Houston school employees, were indicted in October for allegedly running a million-dollar cheating ring that allowed over 200 educators to falsify their teaching certifications.

Key facts: Vincent Grayson, the boys’ basketball coach at Booker T. Washington High School, allegedly organized the scheme. Aspiring teachers would pay Grayson $2,500 to guarantee a passing grade on their certification exam, according to an investigation by Attorney General Ken Paxton’s Criminal Investigations Division.

The teachers would show up to the testing center, sign in, and leave immediately. Nicholas Newton, an assistant principal at Booker T. Washington, would then show up and take the test for them, prosecutors claim.

The results were reportedly upheld by Tywana Gilford Mason and Darian Nikole Wilhite, two test proctors who allegedly received a 20% cut of the money.

LaShonda Roberts, assistant principal at Yates High School, allegedly helped recruit interested teachers.

Grayson made $400,750 in salary between 2017 and 2023, OpenTheBooks found. Newton earned $448,205 and Roberts made $409,455. All three were arrested and fired, and Houston has promised to take “swift action” against any teachers who used their services.

The group made over $1 million from the cheating scandal, Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg said. She told CNN the full extent will “never be known,” but that at least 200 teachers took at least 400 fake tests.

It’s bad enough that the US school system is considered to be among the worst in the developed world but this is just over the top pure corruption! It is the students that suffer from having unqualified teachers.

Nearly 200 players were involved in simulations based on what we know of Trump’s proposals. The results offer some sobering lessons.

How bad is it? This is very bad, and we are not nearly ready for what’s coming our way.

When they tried to change the term to “chestfeeding,” that was when we should’ve said “absolutely not.”
