  1. Let's be clear. The real conflict in this campaign is not between the US and China. And it's not between the US and Russia. The conflict right now is between the US and the City of London. Notice how quickly Trump in his press conference called out the UK for refusing to allow the US to use Diego Garcia as a staging area. He didn't mince words about friendship or diplomacy. And when Lloyds pulled insurance for tankers transiting the Straits of Hormuz attempting to cause global economic chaos, Trump immediately stepped up and ordered the DFC to replace them. In essence, the Straits of Hormuz remains open with tankers escorted by the US military. At every point, Trump is removing the hold of the British imperialists over Iran and the Middle East. The end result of this conflict will be a fully independent and free Iran cooperating with other GCC members under the Board of Peace with European Globalists expelled from the region. Trump is taking this action intentionally with an agenda to undo the British system that has imposed Globalist control for decades. It's not about regime change, but about expelling those Iranian assets who are loyal to European imperialism. All of this will be complete before the American sesquicentennial in July, where the first time in 250 years the US will finally be able to declare itself fully free from control by the old world. The timing of this move by Trump is not an accident.
  2. I will say it again for everyone. There is ZERO actual scientific evidence of a climate emergency. Yes, the climate is changing. The climate is always changing. Yes, you can create models using a process called forcing with increased water vapor that show small CO2 increases can cause it (although you can also create models that show it has no effect, but those don't get grants). Yes, CO2 levels have slightly risen recently. NONE OF THIS is proof of an emergency or impending climate doom, and none of the models created over the last few decades have been correct. The world has been hotter in the past. It has been colder in the past. Humanity survives. The real climate scientists who try and point this out just get cancelled, which is why you don't hear the moderate views. What Trump is doing is absolutely necessary. We need to reset everything and take the time to figure out what is real and what isn't. Only then, when we have broad consensus by ALL stakeholders (not just the Globalists and their collaborators) can humanity move forward with plans on how to be good stewards of the Earth. i congratulate Trump for doing what is necessary to get the ball rolling in the right direction.
  3. As much as I support ICE and the very difficult job they are doing under trying circumstances, this kind of action helps nobody. Federal officers have a duty to follow the rules. Even more so when the entire system is being attacked by collaborators with treasonous politicians. If these officers can't uphold their duty with integrity, they need to be punished. If they misrepresented the facts in order to hide guilt, that is unacceptable by anyone's standards. They deserve their day in court, but the Trump administration needs to make it crystal clear that law enforcement is going to be held to the highest standards. And if they are guilty, the punishment needs to be enough to stop this kind of behavior. And any officer who can't accept that needs to resign. Most ICE agents are good people. We don't need a few bad ones tarnishing the entire force.
  4. Of course not. Let me ask you something. Did you ever watch the SciFi series StarTrek Deep Space 9? They had a character called Garak who was an ex spy with a very questionable past. On one episode, he was sitting and one of the other characters (Dr. Bashir) asked him if he ever told the truth. Garak responded by saying everything he says is the truth. And then Bahir asked "even the lies?" Garak responded "especially the lies." Trump has been playing a role in a game of espionage warfare for the last 9 years. Trump isn't actually the one in charge of this plot. A faction of US military intelligence skilled in espionage is. Trump was recruited for this position. If you try and understand what Trump says by looking only at the literal words, you're never going figure out the meaning. Trump speak is very much like the stories from the character of Garak. You can learn a lot by considering the obvious lies Trump tells. You don't honestly believe he was shot in the ear by a real bullet, do you? So why on Earth would he stage that then? Why did Trump just quietly walk away after the fraudulent election in 2020? If you believe the optics that Trump is an unhinged baby, then you have to also believe he never would have let that go. There are reasons for these actions, and it's not what the TV told us. So no, we're not going to be getting big dividend checks. Yes, the tariff numbers are mostly made up. These are all obvious lies. But there is a message in the specifics of those lies. Right now, we are on a war time footing. The declaration of the Insurrection Act is going to kick off the storm Trump told us all about way back on Oct. 6, 2017. When the press asked him what he meant by "calm before the storm" back then, he simply said "you'll find out." None of us know the specifics of the coming storm, but I know we're very close to finding out. And once it's over...once the war the European Globalists started against humanity and the USA in particular is finally ended...the world will be a better place for it. So I'm happy just to watch events unfold and accept whatever dialog is passed around without too much concern. I don't take any of it seriously. But the Insurrection Act is coming. Count on it. The stage is set.
  5. Whatever is actually going on (and I believe much of this is crisis acting and not actually occurring) the end result is a foregone conclusion. The Insurrection Act. Trump has told us so directly. You can believe what you will about Trump's motivations for leading us down this path, but there is no point in ignoring where we're headed. The optics of insurrection will continue and spread in order to facilitate bringing in the military to do what local governments are unwilling to do. One way or another, we're about to move out of the darkness of espionage warfare and into the time of overt militarism and exposure of whatever the agenda has been for the last 9 years.
  6. The US is about to leave NATO and expose the City of London and European Globalists as the biggest threat to America. The consequence is that the British Commonwealth will be identified as the enemy of the USA. Not the UK, nor the British or the European people, but the secret power structure behind the Commonwealth and the Globalist collaborators who support them. There is a very real distinction between these groups that will matter when the war ends, but in the beginning it will be very muddy. Canada is going to be forced to choose whether they will side with the USA, or they will side with the British Commonwealth. This the final battle of the War for Independence that began in 1776. Canada is not going to be allowed to take a neutral position on this, as the US cannot accept an enemy on its northern border. It's fine, even commendable, to be proud of your Canadian heritage. Just get ready for what is coming, because a lot is about to be revealed to you. Trump securing the US bases on Greenland before exiting NATO was the last step in a long preparation for the final battle. The stage is now set, and you are on the front line of the battle.
  7. The Board of Peace is the new alternative to the UN. It is designed to be a permanent structure that will run in parallel as the UN dies. It is impossible to fix the UN, however the Board of Peace will slowly take over all relevant international discussions. The UN will wither away as the US withdraws funding and become nothing more than ceremonial before disappearing altogether. Take the Board of Peace very seriously, because it will be primary body for all future international diplomacy. Really read the framework. It is conceived as a permanent and expanding institution. The initial mission in Gaza is just the start.
  8. I'll admit I was confused about Trump's position on Greenland and Canada, until I came across Operation War Plan Red from the 1920's. Conceived by John Quincy Adams great grandson Charles Adams, it was a military strategy to protect the US from an invasion by Great Britain. Yes, before Switzerland conspired to train Lenin and make America's ally, Russia, into the big bad guy, it was the British Empire who were considered the most serious threat to America. Operation War Plan Red was designed to defend the US against a British attack using Canada as a proxy. If you look at a globe, Greenland is directly in the path halfway between Britain and the Canadian border with the USA. The strategic national interest of the US in Greenland isn't to defend against Russia, but to defend against the British Empire. It always has been. What we are witnessing with the takeover of Greenland (and Canada) is the final phase of America's war for Independence from Britain. It is the final defeat of the British Crown and a triumph of the American Republic over the last vestiges of Empire. The capture of Greenland is crucial to destroying the offensive capabilities of the British Commonwealth, which has been the real enemy of America all along, and continues to be more dangerous to America than Russia. When you understand the City of London is the actual enemy, everything Trump is doing makes perfect sense. He's adapted War Plan Red for modern times. Watch and see how this plays out. If you think Russia is the bad guy in this world, you're about to get a wake up call. This is why I am quite certain Trump has chosen the sesquicentennial in July of this year to play a pivotal role. Whatever is going to happen, the world will look completely different after that. The fact that the battle has been limited to the theater of espionage warfare over the last century rather than kinetic attacks doesn't change the reality of this.
  9. Mamdani is the Grinch who stole freedom. "They're makin' a list. They're checkin' it twice. Gonna find out who's wanted by ICE. Illegals are leaving - your town"
  10. It's not only possible, it's the primary reason for his capture. They already had his chief of military intelligence (Hugo Carvajal) in custody who previously sang like a canary. They only needed to remove Maduro so he could not pour retribution on Hugo's friends and family still in the country. Venezuela was the international coordinator of the voting software that was used to engineer the election fraud of 2020 that overthrew the legitimate government of the US.
  11. If anyone needed proof this is not a repeat of 2011, you just got it: https://www.cmegroup.com/notices/clearing/2026/01/26-019.html They raised the margin requirement by ~$6000, and fixed it to a continuous adjustment as a percentage of contract going forward, and the drop they got yesterday was only 3%. This market isn't being driven by speculators like previous incarnations. These are physical buyers standing for delivery. You can't margin them out. The margin is already significantly above where it was when the bubble collapsed in 2011. It's not only proving resilient, but adamantly resilient. It's not investor driven, but people who recognize the model for industrial silver has changed from just-in-time to just-in-case. Everyone is scrambling to fill their warehouses with a buffer. And unlike toilet paper runs that stall out in a few weeks as supply ramps up, this is a run that could take a decade to resolve. Doesn't mean they won't play with the price and crash it over and above the average trend to keep making money, but we're never going back to the previous trend lines. The new trend over the last 3 months is around 25% - 30% gains MoM, and that is real, physical buying. There is no indication of this breaking in the near future.
  12. It's certainly consistent. We all know hyperinflation is the only way the US sovereign debt crisis can be resolved. And Trump's recent move to end credit by government decree (i.e. fixing credit card rates at 10%) perfectly mirrors FDR's confiscation of gold in preparation for a massive repricing of monetary assets. I expect in the near future COMEX will also be destroyed via delivery defaults and crippling raises in the margin requirements, and with the futures markets shut down, it will leave very few with the ability to take advantage of the commodity repricing once it becomes obvious. Let's see, but I think the smart money is to be prepared for a very tumultuous time in 2026. If we're lucky, they'll keep the commodity price explosion mostly contained within monetary metals and crypto currency and stop it from leaking into the larger economy. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see price controls and government intervention in manufacturing and food processing to make this happen. All this to say if you have the cash to take delivery of physical metals right now, do it. I think paper derivatives won't survive the coming storm. You'll be paid out in pre hyperinflated dollars.
  13. So far, the price has been run up to $85, which implies a setup for a drop may be coming, but I give it a nearly zero percent chance if will be down to $65. You're probably looking at a retracement back down to $75 to complete your pattern before exploding upwards again.
  14. While they still have the beginning of next week to complete the rebalancing, the fears of a massive drop in the price of silver appear to be significantly exaggerated. It dropped to $75 only to immediately bounce back and hold near $80.
  15. Bowins. https://bowinsgroup.com/home Current delay for 1kg bar delivery is about 4 weeks. Prepaid. You need to pay 7% VAT and around 800 baht per bar for delivery depending on where you are in Thailand. They have some smaller bars with cheaper delivery costs in stock. You'll need to add them on Line to order. Price changes quickly throughout the day, so if you place an order and aren't ready to transfer immediately they may cancel your order. The only other place I would trust for silver is Bangkok Assay. (https://www.bkkassay.co.th/) But their website is horrible. Your best bet is to physically visit them.
