The Economic Collapse

Did President Trump just pull the trigger on a major decision?  When dozens of U.S. Air Force tankers started taking off from their bases, all sorts of speculation started to erupt on social media.  And then when those tankers started flying east across the Atlantic, the level of speculation escalated to a frenzy.  As I write this article, the Pentagon has still not explained what all of these tankers are doing.  But TWZ has accurately noted that what we are witnessing is “very peculiar”… (Read More...)

It is being reported that Iran is seriously considering closing the Strait of Hormuz.  We don’t know how high the price of oil will go if that happens, because it has never happened before.  Of course I think that it would be safe to assume that the price of oil would rapidly surpass the $100 mark, and if it stays there for an extended period of time that would be enough to push us into a recession all by itself.  But if the price of oil were to surpass the $200 mark and stay there, I believe that could be enough to actually push us into an economic depression.  Shockingly, as you will see below, there is one official in the Middle East that is convinced that the price of oil could go up to $300 a barrel if Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz.  Needless to say, that would be a nightmare scenario.

This week there has been a tremendous amount of speculation that a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities is imminent.  Now it has happened.  When I originally wrote this article, I thought that a military strike on Iran would not happen until after one last round of talks with the Iranians this weekend.  Even though it was obvious that those talks would go nowhere, I thought that the U.S. and Israel would give the Iranians one last chance to make a deal.  But that obviously did not materialize.  The Jerusalem Post is reporting that air strikes on Iran have begun… (Read More...)

Specific tactics may change, but the playbook is always the same.  All over the world, “color revolutions” have featured graffiti, vandalism, arson, rioting, looting and violent clashes will law enforcement officers.  The goal of the rioters is to pressure authorities into giving them what they want so that the chaos will stop.  And “color revolutions” always feature a highly visible set of colors that are deeply meaningful to the people that are being encouraged to protest.  In this case, the Mexican flag has been specifically chosen to be the primary symbol of the “color revolution” that has erupted in Los Angeles.  The following comes from the New York Times… (Read More...)

If the protests in Los Angeles are supposed to be peaceful, why is brand new riot gear being trucked in and given to the protesters?  And why isn’t this making front page news all over the country?  First of all, protesters only need riot gear if riots are going to break out.  Secondly, it is becoming clear that someone purchased large quantities of riot gear in advance.  So who funded those purchases, and who knew that riots would erupt in Los Angeles at this specific time?  If corporate news outlets in this country were still employing real journalists, those are the types of questions that those journalists would be asking.

If they keep telling us that the riots in Los Angeles are “mostly peaceful”, do they think that we will eventually believe it?  Over and over again, reporters are telling us that the protests are “mostly peaceful” as they literally stand in front of burning vehicles.  It is the exact same sort of gaslighting that we witnessed during the final summer of President Trump’s first term in office.  There were violent riots all over America throughout the summer of 2020, and it appears that there will be violent riots all over America throughout the summer of 2025.  But the mainstream media will never call them “violent riots” even though that is precisely what they are.
