They Do Not Want Peace, And So You Need To Prepare For A Horrific Global War

I knew exactly what would happen when China unveiled their peace plan for the conflict in Ukraine.  The night before, I told my wife that western leaders would immediately dismiss it.  Sadly, that is precisely what happened.  Of course any peace plan proposed by China was not going to be perfect.  But for the good of humanity our leaders should be willing to at least sit down and talk with the Russians.  Because if we stay on the path that we are currently on, eventually somebody will use nuclear weapons.  And once things go nuclear, we could be facing a nightmare scenario in which hundreds of millions of people die.

This is not a game.

At some point, peace talks may become impossible.  So if we have an opportunity to talk now, we should grab it.

But instead, our leaders made it abundantly clear that they aren’t even interested in considering China’s peace plan…

US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, speaking on CNN, brushed off the Chinese proposal, saying it should have ended after the first bullet point, which calls for “respecting the sovereignty of all countries.”

“This war could end tomorrow, if Russia stopped attacking Ukraine and withdrew its forces,” he said.

Asked about the proposal, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said, “China doesn’t have much credibility” in light of its failure to condemn Putin’s war.

And Volodymyr Zelensky is completely rejecting the idea of ever negotiating with Vladimir Putin…

The Ukrainian president has repeatedly rejected the idea of negotiating a peace deal that would see Ukraine lose any of its territory. Speaking on Friday, he said he would not negotiate with Putin – even though he was prepared to speak to him before the war started.

“It is not the same man. There is nobody to talk to there,” he said.

I think that Zelensky would see things quite differently if he was one of the men that was being forced into the meat grinder in eastern Ukraine.

According to a former U.S. Marine that is fighting there, the “average life expectancy of a front-line soldier in eastern Ukraine is just four hours”…

The average life expectancy of a front-line soldier in eastern Ukraine is just four hours, a former US Marine fighting alongside Ukrainian forces in the Donbas told ABC News.

“It’s been pretty bad on the ground. A lot of casualties. The life expectancy is around four hours on the front line,” American Troy Offenbecker said.

It is a really, really horrible war.

But those that are far from the front lines can afford to talk about how glorious the war is…

Just one day before the one-year anniversary of the Russian invasion, the official Twitter account for the NATO military alliance has come under criticism for a post that said Ukraine is “hosting one of the great epics of this century” and compared the war to Hollywood movies.

The post, which quoted a Ukrainian soldier named Pavlo, said: “We are Harry Potter and William Wallace, the Na’vi and Han Solo. We’re escaping from Shawshank and blowing up the Death Star. We are fighting with the Harkonnens and challenging Thanos.”

The idea of comparing the war, which has claimed thousands of lives, seen widespread destruction, and destabalised the world’s food and energy supplies, to fictional characters was quickly deried by many on the social media platform.

I would like to see leaders from both sides be forced to serve on the front lines.

If that ever happened, this war would end really quick.

Sadly, a conflict with Russia is apparently not enough, and so the Biden administration is now relentlessly provoking the Chinese.

This week, a new round of sanctions that were announced by the Biden administration actually included entities located inside China…

The White House has announced yet another package of sweeping sanctions targeting Russia on the one-year anniversary of its brutal invasion of Ukraine – with new efforts to target third countries including China for sanctions evasion.

And it is being reported that the U.S. will soon “quadruple” that number of U.S. troops in Taiwan…

The US is expected to quadruple the number of forces deployed to Taiwan in the coming months as tensions with Beijing continue to simmer.

The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday that the Pentagon plans to deploy between 100 and 200 troops to the self-ruled island, up from around 30 a year ago.

Service members from the Marines and the special forces have been sent to Taiwan in the past and the number has fluctuated over the years.

The Chinese consider Taiwan to be their sovereign territory.

This is something that they believe with a passion.

And so the fact that the Biden administration will be sending more U.S. troops to the island has really pissed them off…

A commentator for the Global Times, a media project of the Chinese Communist Party, issued a threat to the United States on Thursday night, intimating that China would not hesitate to engage U.S. forces stationed in Taiwan if the Chinese launched an invasion of the island nation.

Hu Xijin, formerly the editor-in-chief of the Global Times, reacted to a Wall Street Journal report about U.S. troops traveling to Taiwan by calling it “illegal” and suggesting that the Chinese would treat them as enemy combatants.

“It’s illegal for these US soldiers to go to Taiwan and Chinese mainland won’t take any responsibility for their safety,” tweeted Hu. “If we take military action when necessary, they’ll be wiped out together with the resisting Taiwan troops. They can also be eliminated first as the invading army.”

But most Americans don’t understand any of this.

Most Americans have absolutely no idea that we are literally on the verge of a war with China.

Unfortunately, such a conflict is getting a little bit closer with each passing day.  In fact, we just witnessed a very alarming incident over the South China Sea…

A voice, saying it’s coming from a People’s Liberation Army (PLA) airport, crackles over the radio of the US Navy P-8 Poseidon as a CNN crew, given rare access aboard the US flight, listens in.

“American aircraft. Chinese airspace is 12 nautical miles. Not approaching any more or you bear all responsibility,” it says.

For some reason, the U.S. Navy aircraft was carrying a CNN crew, and the Chinese fighter jet got so close to them that they “could make out the red star on the tail fins and the missiles it was armed with”…

In a few minutes, a Chinese fighter jet armed with air-to-air missiles intercepts the US plane, nestling in just 500 feet off its port side.

The Chinese fighter jet was so close, the CNN crew could see the pilots turning their heads to look at them – and could make out the red star on the tail fins and the missiles it was armed with.

Why does the Biden administration see the need to endlessly provoke China at a moment like this?

It is madness.

We could easily find ourselves involved in conflicts with both Russia and China at the same time, and I have been precisely warning of such a scenario for a very long time.

Unfortunately, we have a hothead in the White House that is in an advanced stage of mental decline.

And he is surrounded by irrational warmongers such as Jake Sullivan, Antony Blinken and Victoria Nuland.

They do not want peace.

So global war is coming, and I would strongly encourage you to get prepared for such an outcome.

More Than A Million Americans Are Dead, But Our Leaders Do Nothing About The Raging Crisis In Our Streets

In our rotting, decaying society, there are literally hordes of rotting, decaying people in the streets.  In this article, I am going to tell you about an immensely powerful drug that is taking America by storm.  It makes people stagger about like zombies, and it also causes raw, gaping wounds that will literally rot away arms and legs if left untreated.  Of course the U.S. was already facing an unprecedented drug crisis even before this new “zombie drug” started to spread like wildfire.  More than a million Americans have died of a drug overdose since 1999, and the drug overdose epidemic has actually greatly accelerated within the past few years.  At this point, more than 100,000 Americans a year are dying from a drug overdose.  According to the CDC, someone dies from an overdose in this country every five minutes, and most of those drug overdose deaths are being caused by a drug known as fentanyl.  An amount of fentanyl equivalent to a grain of rice is enough to kill a person, and right now fentanyl is actually the leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 18 and 45…

Fentanyl has become the leading cause of death for adults aged between 18 and 45, the CDC confirmed.

Former White House drug policy advisor Professor Keith Humphreys told The U.S. Sun: “The US has an established population of several million people who are already addicted to opioids.

“This creates a lucrative market for drug traffickers selling blends of opioids with other drugs included.”

Thanks to our unprotected borders, it is quite easy for other countries to absolutely flood our communities with fentanyl.  For example, last week state troopers in Arizona discovered “enough fentanyl to kill nearly 800,000 people”…

Arizona state troopers last week seized enough fentanyl to kill nearly 800,000 people. The fentanyl had been smuggled in a pickup truck and made it nearly 150 miles north of the border, authorities said.

The stuff gets over the border so easily because the politicians in Washington have turned our border security into a joke.

The only reason why state troopers were able to intercept it 150 miles north of the border is because the vehicle it was being transported in was involved in a terrible accident.

Fentanyl was bad enough, but now it is being combined with an extremely powerful animal tranquilizer known as Xylazine…

Xylazine is thought to be 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more powerful than morphine, which is why it has taken over at the No. 1 drug in Philadelphia.

The combination of Fentanyl and Xylazine is known as “Tranq Dope”, and it is being sold on the streets of our major cities “for just a few dollars”…

When cut with fentanyl, xylazine has a bigger hit with it inducing a semi-conscious state which leaves people’s upper bodies hanging over their legs in the street and they move very slowly or not at all.

This is where it gets its name “zombie drug” from, however with a bigger hit comes a bigger need for addicts to buy it.

The drug is sold on the street for just a few dollars and is often injected into the body.

In this footage from the streets of Philadelphia, you can see what this “zombie drug” does to people.

We have never seen anything quite like this before.

Recently, authorities in Philadelphia tested 39 different drug samples, and they found Xylazine in every single one of them…

The city’s public health department recently found Xylazine in every sample of drugs tested. While the sample of 39 was small, health experts are alarmed at the trend and the wounds they are seeing.

Of course it isn’t just Philly that is dealing with “Tranq Dope”.

This new combination is now being bought and sold in communities all over America, and users are discovering that it literally causes raw, gaping wounds to appear on their bodies…

Tranq users have found raw wounds erupting on their skin at the injection sites which have rotted the surrounding skin and caused infection, sometimes leading to amputation.

The wounds turn into a crust of dead tissue called eschar, which if untreated will cause people to lose limbs.

Some former addicts have even spoken about seeing people continue to inject the drug into their stumps.

Sadly, most addicts are not able to quit.

These drugs are just too strong.

So even though their wounds just keep getting worse and worse, most addicts just keep injecting themselves with this poison.

One user named Sam told Sky News about the holes that have appeared in his legs and feet…

Tranq is basically zombifying people’s bodies. Until nine months ago, I never had wounds. Now, there are holes in my legs and feet.

Just cleaning them is so painful. The wound care truck put on band aids but I kept them on for a week in the rain and it all looked a hundred times worse.

And a 39-year-old user named Tracey McCann actually told the New York Times that her arms are “dying” from the wounds that she has developed…

Last month, one Philly user suddenly developed xylazine-specific wounds near her opioid injection sites.

“I’d wake up in the morning crying because my arms were dying,” Tracey McCann, 39, told the New York Times.

But most of them simply cannot get off these drugs on their own.

So they will just keep going back to the dealers to buy more.

When I say that our major cities have become rotting, decaying hellholes, I am not exaggerating one bit.

And what is truly tragic is that our leaders could stop all of this is they really wanted to do so.

But they won’t do it.

Even though more than a million Americans are already dead, they refuse to take action.

For a long time I have been relentlessly warning my readers about what was happening to our cities, and now the deterioration has greatly accelerated.

If you currently live in a drug-infested area, I would encourage you to move somewhere safe while you still have the opportunity to do so.

Unfortunately, the number of safe areas continues to shrink, because these drugs just continue to infest more communities with each passing year.

The U.S. And Europe vs. Russia And China – The “Alliances Of The Apocalypse” Have Formed

It is kind of like watching a really bad Hollywood disaster movie slowly play out, except in this case billions of people could end up dead.  Thanks to the endless bumbling of the Biden administration, Russia and China have been pushed into each other’s arms, and now they seem determined to confront the western powers together.  For those of you that have not been paying attention, the apocalyptic alliances that we have been anticipating for years have now formed.  It is going to be the U.S. and Europe on one side, and Russia and China will be on the other.  All of the marbles are at stake, and both sides have plenty of nuclear weapons.

On Tuesday, China’s top diplomat Wang Yi publicly declared that his nation is “ready to join forces with the Russian side”…

The People’s Republic of China is ready to join forces with Russia to decisively stand up for national interests and promote mutually beneficial cooperation in all areas, Wang Yi, director of the Office of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the Communist Party of China’s Central Committee, said on Tuesday as he met with Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolay Patrushev.

“During a virtual meeting at the end of last year our leaders (Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin – TASS) came up with a plan for further development of bilateral relations. We are ready to join forces with the Russian side, in accordance with the high-level agreements, to decisively stand up for national interests and virtues, and promote mutually beneficial cooperation in all areas,” he said.

And the Wall Street Journal is reporting that plans are being made for Chinese leader Xi Jinping to travel to Moscow for a high level summit with Vladimir Putin…

Chinese leader Xi Jinping is preparing to visit Moscow for a summit with Russia’s president in the coming months, according to people familiar with the plan, as Vladimir Putin wages war in Ukraine and portrays himself as a standard-bearer against a U.S.-led global order.

Meanwhile, the Chinese are using increasingly harsh words to describe U.S. involvement in the war in Ukraine…

And the Chinese are now calling for the UN to investigate the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines…

China has called on the United Nations to investigate the explosions on the Nord Stream gas pipelines, describing the blasts as a “deliberate act” by state actors.

At a UN Security Council briefing on Tuesday, Chinese ambassador Zhang Jun said China shared the position of many countries in calling for an investigation “to uncover the truth and identify those responsible”.

So why would China request such an investigation?

Because they know that we did it.

And we know that they know that we did it.

And they know that we know that they know that we did it.

Thanks to Seymour Hersh, the whole world now knows that the Biden administration was behind one of the greatest terror attacks in modern history.

Biden administration officials can lie until they are blue in the face, but the gig is up.

Everyone knows what really happened, and the credibility of the Biden administration has completely evaporated.

U.S. relations with China have been steadily deteriorating for quite some time, but the Biden administration seems absolutely determined to make them even worse.

Just look at how the whole “Chinese spy balloon” incident was handled.

The Chinese are not going to forgive, and they are definitely not going to forget.

So now Russia and China have decided to become best buddies, and the guy that we keep sending billions of dollars to over in Ukraine is warning that this could result in a “world war”…

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy warned China in a newspaper interview on Monday against supporting Russia in its war on Ukraine and said doing so would bring on a world war.

Zelenskiy’s comments came as China said that the United States was in no position to make demands, after the top U.S. diplomat warned his Chinese counterpart at the weekend against China providing weapons to Russia in its war in Ukraine.

Sadly, he is quite right about this.

There will be a war, and the alliances for that war have already formed.

Needless to say, many of our leaders are absolutely horrified that Russia and China are getting close.  For example, just check out what Senator Lindsey Graham said just a few days ago…

Sen. Lindsey Graham on Sunday said China would be making a colossal blunder if it decides to provide lethal aid to Russia for its war with Ukraine.

“If you jump on the Putin train, you’re dumber than dirt,” the South Carolina Republican said of China in an interview with Martha Raddatz on ABC’s “This Week.”

“It would be like buying a ticket on the Titanic after you saw the movie.”

If our leaders were smart, they would be looking for a peaceful way out of this mess while it is still possible.

But instead, Joe Biden just continues to spew incoherent drivel about how it is important for us to back the war in Ukraine for as long as necessary…

Meanwhile, President Trump is publicly warning that “World War III has never been closer than it is right now”…

Trump was right on target with that statement.

In my entire lifetime, the United States has never been closer to an apocalyptic war than it is right now.

It appears that we could end up fighting Russia and China at the same time, and that sort of a nightmare scenario will not be good for any of us.

The Economy Is Crashing Even Faster Than A Lot Of The Experts Had Anticipated

It’s happening.  Throughout 2021 and 2022, a whole host of experts were warning that we were going to see another economic crisis like we witnessed in 2008 and 2009, and now it is here.  In fact, it is unfolding at a pace that is even more rapid than most of the experts had anticipated.  The housing market is crashing, hordes of retail stores are closing, the commercial real estate market is headed for a colossal disaster, food prices continue to surge, and the worst wave of layoffs in more than a decade just continues to get even worse.  So many of the economic trends that I have been tracking on The Economic Collapse Blog are now reaching a crescendo, but most Americans still don’t understand how bad things will eventually become.

On Tuesday, we learned that existing home sales in the United States have now fallen for 12 months in a row…

U.S. existing home sales slowed for the 12th consecutive month in January as high mortgage rates, surging inflation and steep home prices sapped consumer demand from the housing market.

Sales of previously owned homes tumbled 0.7% in January from the prior month to an annual rate of 4 million units, according to new data released Tuesday by the National Association of Realtors (NAR). On an annual basis, existing home sales are down 36.9% when compared with January 2021.

It is the slowest pace since November 2010, when the U.S. was still in the throes of the housing crisis triggered by subprime mortgage defaults.

Just think about these numbers for a moment.

Existing home sales have dropped every single month for an entire year.

That is catastrophic.

Overall, existing home sales are a whopping 36.9 percent lower than they were at this time last year.

We haven’t seen anything like this since the last housing crash.

Meanwhile, rapidly rising interest rates and the work at home trend that began during the pandemic have combined to create a giant mess for the commercial real estate industry.

At this point, projects are starting to fail at a furious pace…

The giant investment manager Brookfield Asset Management recently defaulted on a total of over $750 million in debt for a pair of 52-story towers in Los Angeles, according to a February securities filing. Real-estate firm RXR is in talks with creditors to restructure debt on 61 Broadway, a 34-story tower in Manhattan’s financial district, according to people familiar with the matter. Handing over the building to the lender is among the options under consideration, these people said.

In another sign of distress, a venture of an investment manager affiliated with Related Cos. and BentallGreenOak is in similar debt-restructuring talks over a $150 million warehouse-to-office conversion project in Long Island City, N.Y., that hasn’t filled up as much space as expected, according to people familiar with the matter.

Sadly, this is just the tip of the iceberg.

As I discussed the other day, I believe that we will eventually see the worst commercial real estate crisis in the entire history of our nation.

Of course the whole economy is moving into very troubled times.  The Conference Board’s index of leading economic indicators has now dropped lower in each of the past ten months.

The last time we witnessed a streak of this magnitude was in 2008.

Even Walmart and Home Depot are acknowledging that a very challenging economic environment is in front of us, and bleak forecasts from both companies helped to spark another round of panic selling on Wall Street…

US stocks plunged on Tuesday after fourth-quarter earnings and forecasts from mega-retailers like Walmart and Home Depot raised concerns about the strength of the US consumer.

The Dow and S&P 500 each closed with their worst day since December 15 – the Dow fell about 696 points, or 2.1%, while the S&P dropped by 2%. The Nasdaq Composite closed 2.5% lower.

Consumer spending accounts for about 70% of America’s gross domestic product, the broadest measure of the US economy, so a slowdown could weigh on growth and even send the United States into a recession.

As economic activity slows down, major retailers are closing hundreds of locations all over the country…

America is bracing for a mass exodus of retail stores across the nation this year, with more than 800 big box locations set to close from California to New York.

Among the iconic names to announce they are downsizing includes Bed Bath & Beyond, Walmart, Gap and Party City.

At least 803 stores are set to be shuttered over the rest of 2023, with many forced into desperate cost cutting measures amid rampant inflation and declining bottom lines.

Sadly, there will be more.

A lot more.

Needless to say, a lot more layoffs are coming too.  In fact, we just learned that McKinsey & Co “plans to eliminate about 2,000 jobs”…

McKinsey & Co. plans to eliminate about 2,000 jobs, one of the consulting giant’s biggest rounds of cuts ever.

The firm known for devising staff-reduction plans for its clients is taking the ax to some of its own, with the move expected to focus on support staff in roles that don’t have direct contact with clients, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

So many people are going to lose their jobs in the months ahead.

The tech industry is supposed to be one of the backbones of our economy, but they have been laying off workers faster than almost any other sector.  And the numbers tell us that the pace of tech layoffs in 2023 is already way ahead of last year.

If you do not have a job right now, I would recommend grabbing one while you still can.

And if you do have a job that you value, I would try to hold on to it as hard as you can.

These are the times that we have been warned about, and eventually economic conditions will be even worse than they were in 2008 and 2009.

Those running our economy were able to keep things propped up for quite a while by pushing interest rates all the way to the floor and by flooding our system with mountains of fresh money.

But in the process they created a tremendous amount of inflation, and meanwhile our long-term economic problems just continued to get even worse.

Now a day of reckoning has arrived, and our leaders are all out of solutions.

The United States And Russia Are At War. You Do Realize How This Is Going To End, Don’t You?

Joe Biden just made a surprise visit to Kyiv during which he announced that the U.S. is going to be involved for “as long as it takes” to win the war against Russia.  Meanwhile, the Russians have now pulled together far more forces than they originally invaded Ukraine with a year ago.  They intend to fight for “as long as it takes” too.  There are no peace negotiations and there aren’t going to be any peace negotiations.  Both sides are counting on the other side to eventually back down.  But what happens if both sides just keep escalating matters until a “point of no return” is reached?

After we have seen countless other world leaders visit Kyiv over the past year, Joe Biden finally mustered the courage to make the trek himself, and the mainstream media is making a really big deal out of it…

The US will back Ukraine in its fight against Russia for “as long as it takes” President Joe Biden said as he made an unannounced and symbolic visit to the capital, Kyiv.

“We have every confidence you’re going to continue to prevail,” he said.

Mr Biden’s first trip to Ukraine as president came days before the first anniversary of Russia’s invasion.

During his visit, Biden announced even more aid for Ukraine.

But we have already given 196 billion dollars in aid to the Ukrainians…

According to the Ukrainian government, the U.S. leads all countries with $196 billion in total military, financial and humanitarian aid to Ukraine between Jan. 24, 2022 through Nov. 20, 2022.

How much more will we give them during the coming year?

Sadly, the truth is that we are providing far more funding for this war than anyone else, and that includes the Ukrainians.

Vast armies of foreign mercenaries are being hired using our tax dollars, and those foreign mercenaries have become more critical than ever because the Ukrainians are literally running out of warm bodies to throw into the meat grinder in eastern Ukraine.

We are also providing more weapons, more equipment and more ammunition than anyone else, but the Ukrainians are blowing through the ammo even faster than we can make it…

Inside a sprawling factory just off the President Biden Expressway in downtown Scranton, Pennsylvania, the future arsenal of Ukraine’s war effort is being forged, one red hot artillery shell at a time.

Running full-tilt, as it was on a recent January morning, the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant churns out roughly 11,000 artillery shells a month. That may seem like a lot, but the Ukrainian military often fires that many shells over just a few days.

In addition, the U.S. military actually gives the Ukrainians the specific coordinates where Russian targets are located so that the Ukrainians can fire rockets that we have provided to them at those targets…

The Washington Post reported Thursday that Ukraine is reliant on coordinates provided or confirmed by the US and its allies to launch strikes using the US-provided HIMARS rocket systems, a revelation that demonstrates Washington’s deep involvement in the war.

The HIMARS is a precision-guided artillery system, one that Ukraine has employed quite a bit in its fight against Russia. One example is a January 1 HIMARS strike on a facility housing Russian forces in Donetsk that killed at least 89 Russian soldiers, one of the deadliest Ukrainian attacks of the war.

Citing three unnamed Ukrainian officials and one unnamed US official, the Post reported that Ukraine also relies on the US for targeting coordinates for similar precision weapons, including the M270 Multiple-Launch Rocket System. One senior Ukrainian official said that Ukrainian forces almost never launch strikes using these weapons without coordinates provided by US military personnel that are located at a military base in a different country in Europe.

This is our war now.

No matter how much our politicians try to spin it, this has become a war between the United States and Russia.

And it appears that the Russians are preparing to take things to a whole new level.

Right now, very large concentrations of Russian troops are poised to come pouring into Ukraine from the north…

Recently we had the first ever confirmation—with actual photographic evidence—of Russian force buildups on Ukraine’s border resembling those of pre-Feb. 2022. Here are satellite photos of one of them; there are reportedly such camps in Kursk and Voronezh regions, which are directly above Sumy and Kharkov oblasts of Ukraine.

To support those troops, the Russians are constructing “large field hospitals” near the Ukrainian border just like they did prior to the original invasion…

There are now several reports of large field hospitals being constructed in at least two different regions, again reminiscent of exactly what happened last time prior to the start of the SMO. And a senior lieutenant of the AFU stated that 10,000 Russian troops have amassed across the border from Sumy.

There are also very large concentrations of Russian troops in the south.

I expect that the Russians will soon formally declare war against Ukraine, and any pretense of playing nice will finally be discarded.

On the Ukrainian side, one official just made headlines all over the globe when he declared that “tanks will be parked on Moscow’s Red Square and that will be justice”…

Kyiv’s security chief vowed that Ukraine’s ‘tanks will be parked on Moscow’s Red Square and that will be justice’ ahead of the first anniversary of Putin’s invasion.

Oleksiy Danilov, Kyiv’s National Security and Defence Council boss, called Vladimir Putin ‘Hitler’s twin’ as he reiterated Ukraine’s ambition to expel all Russian troops from its soil, including from Crimea which was annexed by Moscow in 2014.

I don’t know what sort of fantasy world he is living in, because the Russians would launch their nukes long before that ever happens.

If push comes to shove, Russia will resort to nuclear war.

Here in the western world, our “experts” keep assuring us that the Russians would never actually do that.

But the Russians keep making it very clear that they are quite serious about their threats…

Russia is attempting to use its nuclear threat to weaken international support for Ukraine, according to Kyiv intelligence.

The official Ukrainian Ministry of Defence reported via Telegram that Russia has started large-scale exercises involving its strategic nuclear forces, stationed for launch by air, land and sea, and put its units on the highest alert.

In my new book I explain why the U.S. is not at all prepared for a nuclear conflict with Russia.

But most Americans don’t care to listen to warnings from me or from anyone else about this.

Most Americans just assume that our leaders know exactly what they are doing and that everything is going to be just fine.

Once upon a time, Barack Obama warned that we should never underestimate Joe Biden’s ability to mess things up.

Now we have reached a point where there is a very real possibility that Joe Biden could get the majority of the U.S. population killed in a cataclysmic war.

This isn’t going to end well, and I would urge you to prepare accordingly.

The Economic Nightmare That You Have Been Waiting For Is Here

A lot of people out there have been waiting for the next major economic crisis to arrive.  If you are one of them, you don’t have to wait any longer, because it is already here.  All of the numbers are telling us that we haven’t faced a downturn of this magnitude since 2008.  For example, the Conference Board’s index of leading economic indicators has now fallen for 10 months in a row.  According to Zero Hedge, this is the first time that has happened since the collapse of Lehman Brothers.  And just like we witnessed in 2008, the housing market is crashing.  In fact, the median price of a home in the San Francisco Bay Area has already fallen by a whopping 35 percent…

The median price in the nine-county Bay Area plunged by another 8% in January from December, by 17% year-over-year, and by 35%, or by $540,000, in 10 months from the crazy peak in March 2022, from $1.54 million to $1.00 million, according to the California Association of Realtors.

Home prices in the Bay Area are plummeting even faster than they did during the first housing crash.

But don’t worry.

Joe Biden says that everything is just fine.

Of course the reality of the matter is that everything is not fine.  As bad as things are for residential real estate, the truth is that things are even worse for commercial real estate.

Earlier today, I came across an article that explained that one of the biggest landlords in Los Angeles just defaulted on 755 million dollars in loans…

Brookfield Corp., parent of the largest office landlord in downtown Los Angeles, is defaulting on loans tied to two buildings rather than refinancing the debt as demand for space weakens in the center of the second-largest US city.

The two properties in default, part of a portfolio called Brookfield DTLA Fund Office Trust Investor, are the Gas Company Tower, with $465 million in loans, and the 777 Tower, with about $290 million in debt, according to a filing. The fund manager had warned in November that it may face foreclosure on properties.

Sadly, this is just the tip of the iceberg.

We stand on the brink of the most epic commercial real estate crash in the entire history of the United States, and it is absolutely going to devastate the financial community.

Meanwhile, the tsunami of layoffs that we have been witnessing just continues to intensify.  For instance, KPMG just announced that it will be laying off about 700 workers…

Several financial firms have slashed jobs in recent months including major Wall Street banks, asset managers and fintechs amid a turbulent macroeconomic environment that has pressured consumers and soured demand in several mainstay business units.

The cuts at KPMG will affect close to 700 people, the FT report added.

And Docusign is already on their second round of layoffs…

E-signature software company DocuSign on Thursday announced plans to cut around 10% of its workforce.

DocuSign had 7,461 employees in January 2022 before it announced an earlier round of layoffs last September that impacted 9% of its workforce. The company said the latest cuts will impact about 700 employees.

Even Apple is letting people go.  It is being reported that “hundreds of contractors” were suddenly given the axe last week…

NYPost said Apple fired hundreds of contractors last week. These workers are employed by outside companies but work alongside Apple employees on projects. It appears Apple is reducing headcount as the macroeconomic environment remains challenging.

If even an extremely wealthy company like Apple has decided that now is the time for mass layoffs, what does that say about the economic outlook for the rest of 2023?

In 2022, we witnessed a wave of layoffs in the tech industry that was unlike anything we have seen since the Great Recession.

And so far this year, we are way, way ahead of last year’s pace…

The news comes after 1,045 tech companies last year fired 161,000 employees in 2022. So far this year, 380 companies have fired 108,000 workers, according to the jobs tracking website Layoffs.fyi.

Does anyone out there still want to try to argue that the economy is in “good shape”?

Look, if the economy really is in “good shape”, then why is Walmart closing down more stores?…

Walmart has confirmed it is shutting down seven stores over profitability concerns after a “thorough review process.”

Walmart confirmed the closure of five locations across three states to Nexstar last week. Among those was a store in Albuquerque, New Mexico, that was described as “underperforming” in a statement to Nexstar’s KRQE.

Other impacted locations included a store in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and three in the Chicago area. Nexstar’s WGN reports two of the stores in Chicago did not meet financial expectations.

Walmart can see what is coming.

So can Apple.

So can hundreds of other major corporations that have been “downsizing” in recent weeks.

Everyone is battening down the hatches because we are entering a really bad storm.

Of course not everyone is hurting.

If you are in the top 10 percent of all income earners, you may still be doing quite well.

For now.

But at this point the gap between the ultra-wealthy and the rest of us is larger than ever, and most of the population is just trying to find a way to survive from month to month.

Once upon a time, the U.S. had the largest and most prosperous middle class in the history of the world, but now our landscape is littered with dollar stores because such stores are some of the only places where our vast throngs of poor people can afford to shop…

A small town in eastern Kentucky has an unusual claim to fame: with a population of just 1,424, it has six dollar stores, most of them built in the past few years.

Olive Hill, a quiet hamlet situated on Tygarts Creek in the Appalachian foothills, has two Family Dollar locations and four Dollar General stores in and immediately surrounding the town.

All but one of them are located along Tom T. Hall Boulevard, the town’s main drag, named after Olive Hill’s most famous native, the country singer and songwriter nicknamed ‘The Storyteller’.

I have been warning that a nightmarish economic meltdown was coming for a long time.

Now it is here.

And it is going to get a lot worse.

The good news, if you want to call it that, is that we are still only in the very early chapters of this crisis.

So I would encourage you to do what you need to do, because things are only going to get rougher from here.

A Cover Up Of Epic Proportions Is Happening In East Palestine, Ohio

If you want a perfect example of how corrupt our system of government has become, just look at the massive cover up that is going on in East Palestine, Ohio right now.  Federal, state and local officials are telling the public that everything is just fine when everything is obviously not just fine.  On February 3rd, a 50 car Norfolk Southern train derailed in East Palestine.  5 of the cars were carrying vinyl chloride which is an extremely hazardous substance that has been proven to cause several types of cancer.  Unfortunately, with the approval of Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, a decision was made on February 6th to conduct a “controlled burn” of the wreckage.  They knew that burning the vinyl chloride would create vast amounts of phosgene gas.  By now, most of you already know that phosgene gas was actually used as a chemical weapon in World War I.  The cloud of toxic chemicals that was created by the “controlled burn” was so large that it could literally be seen from space, and the long-term health problems that are being caused all over the east coast could stretch on for decades.

But Ohio Governor Mike Dewine doesn’t want to be blamed.

He is telling everyone from East Palestine to go back to their homes, and he insists that the water in the area is “safe to drink”…

Do you believe him?

For those that are gullible enough to believe him, I have just one question for you…

Does this water look safe to drink to you?

Ohio Senator J.D. Vance wanted to see this for himself.

So he went down to a local creek in East Palestine, and this is what he discovered…

Sadly, it isn’t just the water in East Palestine that has been polluted.

50 miles away in Pittsburgh, the water is exhibiting similar qualities…

But the head of the Environmental Protection Agency says that there is nothing to be concerned about at all.

In fact, he says that he would actually “allow his own children to drink and bathe in public water” from East Palestine…

The head of the US Environmental Protection Agency has said he would allow his own children to drink and bathe in public water near the site of a train derailment and chemical spill in Ohio, so long as it had been tested and deemed safe by officials.

EPA Administrator Michael Regan visited the site of the East Palestine derailment on Thursday, seeking to reassure skeptical residents that the water is fit for drinking and the air is safe to breathe.

Nobody wants to see your children do that Michael Regan.

But we would love to see you down a tall, cool glass of tap water from a home right in the middle of East Palestine.

Unfortunately, the Biden administration is going to work relentlessly to downplay the severity of this crisis because they know that if they admitted the truth it would make them look bad to the voters.

And there is a presidential election coming up in less than two years.

Incredibly, the White House has even turned down a formal request for disaster relief for East Palestine…

The White House explained why it turned down Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine’s request for disaster relief this week in the aftermath of a derailment of a train hauling toxic chemicals.

A Biden administration official told Fox News Digital that it has provided extensive assistance to surrounding communities following the chemical release earlier this month in eastern Ohio. However, the official said the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the agency that usually provides relief to communities hit by hurricanes and other natural disasters, isn’t best equipped to support the state’s current needs.

I was floored when I saw that.

We have just witnessed one of the greatest environmental disasters in the entire history of our country, and the Biden administration is not even willing to grant a request for disaster relief?

Ultimately, this is all about protecting the asses of the politicians and protecting the asses of the executives and shareholders of Norfolk Southern.

To the elite, it really doesn’t matter if the poor people of East Palestine all get cancer and die.

What matters is controlling the narrative, and up to this point the corporate media is doing a wonderful job of helping them do it.

As The Economy Implodes, Credit Card Balances Are Increasing At The Fastest Pace In U.S. History

When the going gets tough, it can be extremely tempting to pile on debt as a solution.  The cost of living is rising much faster than most of our paychecks are, and this is putting an enormous amount of financial stress on hard working Americans.  But rather than cutting back on spending, a lot of people are choosing to deal with that financial stress by going into more debt.  In fact, we just learned that U.S. household debt reached an all-time record high of 16.9 trillion dollars last quarter…

Total US household debt hit a record $16.9 trillion during the fourth quarter, an increase of $394 billion, or 2.4%, from the prior three-month period, according to the Fed’s latest Quarterly Report on Household Debt and Credit. While the lion’s share of the debt is attributable to mortgages, the report showed that not only are credit card balances swelling at record levels, delinquencies are on the rise as well.

In particular, Americans are turning to credit card debt like never before.

According to CNN, in the fourth quarter credit card debt in the United States increased at the fastest pace ever recorded…

Credit card balances increased nearly 6.6% to $986 billion during the quarter, the highest quarterly growth on record, according to New York Fed data that goes back to 1999. Year over year, credit card balances grew 15.2%.

This is not a good idea.

When the economy is slowing down, going deeper into debt is one of the worst financial mistakes that you can make.

But millions of Americans are doing it anyway.

It is inevitable that lots of them will ultimately get behind on their payments, and the latest numbers show that this is already starting to happen…

The share of credit card users making payments that were at least 30 days late, also known as early delinquencies, rose last quarter to 5.9% from 5.2% in the prior quarter. The share of serious credit card delinquencies, which represents payments that are 90 or more days late, rose to 4% last quarter from 3.7% in the prior quarter.

The New York Fed is telling us that a whopping 18.3 million Americans were behind on their credit card payments at the end of 2022.

At the end of 2019, that number was sitting at just 15.8 million.

Things are definitely moving in a very troubling direction.

Unfortunately, many Americans have little choice at this point.  Approximately two-thirds of the country is living paycheck to paycheck, and now a lot of us are being swamped by bills that we simply cannot afford to pay.

For example, one homeowner in California was absolutely horrified when he was hit by a $907.13 utility bill…

Brent Eldridge had heard that prices for natural gas were high this winter, but nothing prepared him for how bad it could be.

When he opened the envelope from Long Beach’s utility department, he couldn’t believe the total: $907.13, nearly eight times higher than his bill at the same time last year.

“It made me want to puke,” said Eldridge, 48, a pastor.

Millions of others are being slammed by similar bills this winter.

Meanwhile, the price of food continues to soar to ridiculous heights.

Sadly, food prices will not be returning to where they once were, and so we are being told that the solution is to literally eat less food.  Earlier this week, the Wall Street Journal actually posted an article entitled “To Save Money, Maybe You Should Skip Breakfast”.

This is where we are at.

The reckless policies of our leaders created this inflation crisis, and we are all suffering as a result.

Now central banks all over the globe are raising interest rates in a desperate attempt to get inflation under control, and that threatens to burst the greatest debt bubble in the entire history of the human race…

Debt is vital to the functioning of the world economy. But, after soaring in the aftermath of the 2008 global financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic of recent years, it has reached unprecedented levels: as of last June, total debt amounted to $300 trillion, or 349% of world GDP. With negative supply shocks persisting, and the world’s major central banks scrambling to rein in inflation, debt risks are becoming increasingly alarming.

As New York University’s Nouriel Roubini explains, “The explosion of unsustainable debt ratios [in recent decades] implied that many borrowers – households, corporations, banks, shadow banks, governments, and even entire countries – were insolvent ‘zombies’ that were being propped up by low interest rates (which kept their debt-servicing costs manageable).” Inflation’s return ended this “financial Dawn of the Dead,” and together with low growth, is propelling us toward “the mother of all stagflationary debt crises.”

Higher interest rates are going to seriously slow down economic activity, and there are all sorts of signs that this is already beginning to happen.

On Thursday, we learned that U.S. home construction has fallen to the lowest level that we have seen since the early days of the COVID pandemic…

New U.S. home construction slumped again in January to the lowest level since 2020 as elevated mortgage rates combined with pervasive inflation continued to cool demand.

Housing starts slid 4.5% last month to an annual rate of 1.31 million units, according to new Commerce Department data released on Thursday. That is below Refinitiv economists’ forecast for a pace of 1.35 million units.

In the months ahead, the U.S. housing market will continue to crash.

And the tsunami of layoffs that we have been witnessing will get a whole lot worse.

Those that are running things are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

If they quit raising interest rates, inflation could potentially spiral out of control.

But if they keep raising interest rates, the economy will continue to implode.

Which option will they choose?

So many of the long-term economic trends that we have been warned about are now coming to fruition.

There has never been more debt in the world than there is right now, and the entire global system is starting to buckle.

We get to be here for the grand conclusion of this mess, and it isn’t going to be pleasant.
