A quick update on the China War Thesis released less than a week ago. China’s military sent 71 planes and seven ships toward Taiwan in a 24-hour display of force directed at the self-ruled island, Taiwan’s Defense Ministry said Monday, after China expressed anger at Taiwan-related provisions in a U.S. annual defense spending bill. China’s …

China’s statements and actions are consistent with a nation preparing for war.

The G20 met and left aside all science, common sense, recent history or data opting to double (even triple-down) on the insanity of requiring vaccinations for people to travel.

The U.S. Government is facing an impossible financial future. The Doom Loop has been activated. It’s a death spiral that ends with the destruction of the U.S. dollar or a depression so bad it might as well be called Dark Ages II. This is what happens at the tail end of decades of really piss-poor …

Amnesty? Can we return to “normal”? Find common ground? Is it possible if you’re actually in a cult?
I’d like to help you become free of the tricks and tactics that “they” use to try and dominate the narrative. As we all know, they are good at it.
