Happy New Year! "Stuff" has to happen soon. The Fed will likely cut at the March meeting. We have hints from the UK that the power will go out - but at least "they" told you to prepare, amirite? Above all, "they" want all us little people to remain terrified, living in fear, hiding under the bed.

Every time I hear Grant Williams speak, I always come away with at least two important lessons. One is having the additional context I need to make better sense of the world and another is that I need to continue to work on my oratory skills. Grant is truly a gifted communicator. Come for the explanation of why these levels of debt absolutory matter and stay for the nuanced discussion about free speech.

Covid's origins are now becoming more public and the science cabal trying to hide that are scrambling. The mRNA platform should now be deader-than-dead. I think Tucker is right - the narrative is unraveling. Fortunately we outnumber them a million-to-one. And Merry Christmas for all who celebrate it!

This is Part 2 of Dave Column’s eagerly anticipated Year In Review. Enjoy!
In today’s Scouting Report, I contrast the words of Freedom spoken by new Argentinian President Milei to his people and the world yesterday, with the grotesque slaughtering of Democracy by the collectivists currently ruining the US.
Today’s desk-side video is about the US response to the Houthi attacks in the Red Sea and what that really tells us.
Today I re-cover a comment I left this weekend that I wanted to be sure had more coverage. So in case you didn’t see it, and/or you wanted more depth to the comment, listen in!
A lot of things are not going according to plan (for 'them' at least). This week's COP-28 disaster was a case in point. So was the Fed's emergency easing. I suspect they're pre-emptively saving the banking system from the upcoming "troubles." An increasingly hungry China that now barely produces 2/3rds of its own calories could lead to some really unfortunate outcomes.
What happens if the Green Energy plans turns out to be delusions? How bad could things get if we’ve got this story dead wrong? This latest Episode of The Crash Course (Chapter 8) is exceptionally important because it lays bare that our the West's energy policies are long on false claims and short on the sorts of specifics required to have any chance at success.
As the green energy myth is exposed, new risks and opportunities will emerge. My timeline says that the most we've got is until 2030 until widespread recognition dawns upon the masses as to the true scale of the predicaments we face. Then it will anybody's guess as to how The West will react. Will it be war? More printing? Turning on ourselves by using the power of the state to smash innocent people who will be blamed for troubles they didn't create?
The Fed's decision to pour fresh gasoline on stock and bond markets was startling, to say the least. Why did they do it? How should we respond? What does this tell us about the world?
Why are the Houthis attacking ships in the Red Sea. Why is the Fed lamely 'walking back' their recently announced program of assisting Wall Street...I mean easing. Why is Zuckerberg telling the world about his doomsday bunker? Here are my thoughts on these events.
Holy crap. The Fed shocked/surprised the ""markets"" yesterday by suddenly turning 'dovish?'
I got a chance to watch this last night and was wondering if anyone else here had? It was not bad for pop culture! In the spirit of watching out for predictive programming and the elites publicly communicating probabilities, the involvement of the Obamas here was noteworthy.
Sound money leads to freedom and prosperity. Fiat money leads to a big party until the illusion runs out of room to grow, and then it collapses. To say the least, these next few years are going to be....interesting. What's the role of gold and Bitcoin in helping to smooth the waters? Tune in...
Some men I know have said that their wives have been more emotional of late. I ponder if this is a sign that perhaps we’re getting closer to some sort of event that the women are detecting and whose biological evolution activates them to “clean the nest” to ensure there aren’t too many liabilities hanging about.
AT&T is quite content to both collect everything is can on its customers and then turn it all over to "law enforcement" without any pushback at all. No legal challenges. No taking cases up through the courts because AT&T values its customer's rights. It all fits with the ethos of our times.
Rates probably bottomed on Friday. Both Bidens (H + the Big Guy) as well Ukraine/Zelensky are being thrown, quite visibly, right under the bus by at least half of the Uniparty, as well as by the MSM. "They" are acting panicky and disorganized and the more I learn about "them" the more grateful I am that I'm not part of the Bilderberg "in-crowd."
I'm calling on all curious minds to delve with me into the enigmatic actions of central banks in the global markets. Let's explore together the hidden mechanisms that may be driving our financial world in ways you never imagined.
So, what’s on my desk here at the end of the week?
As they say, once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, but three times is enemy action.
Ed Dowd answers the question, "Have the mysterious deaths in the youngest and healthiest people slowed down here in 2023?"
Ed Dowd has a history of being right and early. It's time to discuss his view of the markets, what their issues are, and where they go from here. As he said, "Markets don't top on selling, they top on a lack of buyers."
Central banks are openly manipulating markets in areas they have no legitimate role. Do this long enough and they will cause massive disruptions, price dislocations and harm for the average person. Do they even care? You decide...
The big news from last week on the Covid vaccine front was the (alleged) release of a dataset from New Zealand by a whistleblower. I stood back for a while because I needed to be sure that we weren’t being played and for some greater resolution to appear from the internet brain trust.
Yay gold! But it's probably not due to good news in the offing. It isn't about inflation - it feels more lined up with maybe a "banking crisis." Big Money always moves in advance of events, and that's what I think they're doing - Big Money is moving into gold.
How much protection does SIPC really offer to individual investors and what is, and is not, covered? Also, why do foreign central banks trade US agricultural derivative contracts as well as Natural gas and silver? It's weird, to say the very least. Paul Kiker and I discuss this and the current state of the economy and markets.
Warren Buffet once said that if the US were a village it would be named Squanderville. The US is now on a path that leads straight past that village to a place of hardship and ruin. Why? Mainly because we screwed up our markets and made them dysfunctional that they no longer do what they should.
Green energy, it turns out, is something of a myth. And, given all that's at stake, a rather dangerous myth. Welcome to this Off The Cuff podcast with Professor Simon Michaux
Has anybody else been waking up in the middle of the night...around 3 or 3:30 am? It's a thing. Time to get prepared.

Like a lot of us I'm sure, I find the potential of The Great Taking quite concerning. But as Chris has (roughly) said: Information without action is worthless. I wanted to start a conversation on the concrete steps we have taken or are looking to take to get ahead of this.
The worm has turned. More and more of their efforts are backfiring. They are using a bunch of old recipes, which have worked for hundreds (thousands?) of years, but we appear to be entering a new world, and Oligarchy hasn't adjusted. Is this a good sign, or a bad one?
I am beyond excited to announce an upcoming paid webinar series designed to help people get their minds and hearts around what’s actually happening so they can more easily decide what, if anything, to do in response.
Today’s Scouting Report is about the dust-up at Open AI which was…odd, to say the least. The Board of Open AI fired Sam Altman for what they at first said was ‘a pattern of inconsistencies’ which is a fancy way of saying “he lied to us one too many times.”
Why would a deeply experienced financial money manager believe so deeply in gold and Bitcoin? Because once you see the financial system for what it is, you can't unsee it; its hull has been holed at the waterline.
My good friend Mike Maloney and I discuss the immorality of out monetary system, and how it is largely used as a conduit to funnel what is best described as stolen wealth from the many to the few. Precious metals are your means of dodging the predations of our reverse Robin Hood system.
Hey folks, this is a super emergent, fast-breaking situation. I have practically no information but minutes ago a massive explosion was reported at the Rainbow Bridge crossing between Canada and Niagara Falls New York.
I can always tell a market rescue or as we say around here, a ““market”” rescue. You see, our markets are now so heavily protected and constantly “adjusted” and “fortified” by the Fed and its many Wall Street minions that it now requires two sets of quotation marks to properly indicate just how fraudulent it has all become.
It’s time for me to explain one of my top strategies for evading The Great Taking, and maybe even profiting off of the criminal activities of Wall Street and the Financial pirates of our day.
