That Civil War Movie Is a Symptom of Hollywood’s Problems

Guest Post by Kurt Schlichter

I saw the new movie “Civil War” so you don’t have to. You’re welcome, and you owe me. Fifteen years ago this month, I started writing for the legendary Andrew Breitbart at Big Hollywood, where we drew attention to the increasing wokeness of Tinseltown. That’s why I saw this movie – to see if Hollywood had learned any lessons. I think it did, but it learned the wrong lessons.

Spoiler alert—it’s a bad movie, and you don’t want to see it. I’m going to tell you some of what happens, but you shouldn’t care because, if you’re smart, you’re going to listen to me and not spend money on it.

Judge Merchan’s Trial Will Destroy USA Like Trial of William Penn

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan is a seasoned jurist who is no stranger to Trump’s orbit. He has presided over the Trump Organization tax fraud trial, sentenced the former president’s close confidant Allen Weisselberg to prison over his role in the scheme, and overseen former Trump adviser Steve Bannon’s criminal fraud case. There is absolutely no question this judge is out of control, biased, and is orchestrating this trial to imprison Trump. He even expanded the gag order on Trump to protect his own daughter, who has admitted to having conversations with he father Ex Parte – totally illegal. Suppose I filed anything in the Supreme Court. Justice Sotomayor would instantly recuse herself because she was on an appeal I had and even disagreed with the government. The fact that she was in my case meant she would recuse herself. This judge is an international disgrace and should be removed from the branch – PERMANENTLY!

Russia Set to Outpace All Advanced Economies – Sanctions FAILED

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Putin XiSanctions and the removal of Russia from SWIFT have not deterred the Russian economy. A recent report by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) predicts that Russia’s economy will grow more in the next year than any other advanced economy.

The IMF believes Russia’s economy will grow by 3.2% in 2024, in comparison, the US is expected to grow by 2.7% while Europe’s top economy, Germany, is expected to grow by a mere 0.2%. Cutting off Europe from Russian energy backfired in a major way. Foreign investments have been pouring into Russia from the rest of the world, which is eager to join the rank of “advanced nation.”

Republican Speaker of the House Flushes US Constitution Down the Toilet

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

As I predicted on April 11, the police state got the Republicans to reconsider and to pass their warrantless spying and home entry. The Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson cast the deciding vote that nixed the warrant requirement.

This tells us all we need to know about Republicans. They are part of the problem.

The Purpose Of War According To George Orwell (1984)

Via ZeroHedge

Some food for thought from George Orwell’s ‘1984’…

Does anything really ever change? (emphasis ours)

The primary aim of modern warfare is to use up the products of the machine without raising the general standard of living.

There is a German word – endsieg. It translates as “final victory.” In Germany, the final victory – against cars – will take the form of indefinite bans on driving them, says the German Transport Minister, Volker Wissing.

Down with Big Brother: Warrantless Surveillance Makes a Mockery of the Constitution

Guest Post by John W. Whitehead

“Whether he wrote DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER, or whether he refrained from writing it, made no difference … The Thought Police would get him just the same … the arrests invariably happened at night … In the vast majority of cases there was no trial, no report of the arrest. People simply disappeared, always during the night. Your name was removed from the registers, every record of everything you had ever done was wiped out, your one-time existence was denied and then forgotten. You were abolished, annihilated: vaporized was the usual word.”—George Orwell, 1984

The government long ago sold us out to the highest bidder.

The highest bidder, by the way, has always been the Deep State.

What’s playing out now with the highly politicized tug-of-war over whether Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act gets reauthorized by Congress doesn’t just sell us out, it makes us slaves of the Deep State.

Read the fine print: it’s a doozy.

A Mother Trucking Economic Warning

Submitted by Mary Christine

Guest Post by John Galt

There are quarterly financial reports which read like BS in a blender, then occasionally one crosses my screen which makes me realize that all is not well on the Main Street front.

Late Tuesday afternoon the big boy of motor carriers, the legendary J.B. Hunt (Symbol: JBHT) reported their earnings today and the only good part about it was the final period at the end.

Together, let us dissect the information and the consequential data one section at a time.

“We Have 15,000 Samples In Wuhan … Could Do Full Genomes Of 700 CoVs”: Rand Paul Drops COVID Bombshell

Via ZeroHedge

Last week Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) wrote in a Tuesday op-ed that officials from 15 federal agencies “knew in 2018 that the Wuhan Institute of Virology was trying to create a coronavirus like COVID-19.”

These officials knew that the Chinese lab was proposing to create a COVID 19-like virus and not one of these officials revealed this scheme to the public. In fact, 15 agencies with knowledge of this project have continuously refused to release any information concerning this alarming and dangerous research.

Government officials representing at least 15 federal agencies were briefed on a project proposed by Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth Alliance and the Wuhan Institute of Virology. -Rand Paul

Paul was referring to the DEFUSE project, which was revealed after DRASTIC Research uncovered documents showing that DARPA had been presented with a proposal by EcoHealth Alliance to perform gain-of-function research on bat coronavirus.

Doug Casey on the New American Dream: “You’ll Own Nothing and Be Happy”

Via International Man

International Man: According to a recent study by Investopedia, the classic middle-class American Dream now costs over $3.4 million.

That’s the estimated lifetime cost of marriage, two children, cars, homes, healthcare, education, and retirement. It’s now entirely out of reach for many Americans.

What do you make of this? How did this happen?

THE MOST POWERFUL AND DANGEROUS MIND CONTROL PROGRAM IN WORLD HISTORY

Via State of the Nation

Submitted by The Armchair Prophet

Let’s get right on it.

Jesus the Christ, himself, never founded a religion called Christianity.

Jesus the Christ never said that he was the ONLY Son of God.  In fact, he said that we are all sons and daughters of the same Almighty God.  That we are all children of the same Supreme Being.

Jesus the Christ came to completely overturn the Judaic order established by the Old Testament of the Hebrew tribes, which he did.

Supercharged Spying Provision Buried In “Terrifying” FISA 702 Reauthorization

Via ZeroHedge

On Monday, the House finalized procedural business on a bill to reauthorize the nation’s warrantless surveillance powers under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), which Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) called “one of the most dramatic and terrifying expansions of government surveillance authority in history.”

“I will do everything in my power to stop it from passing in the Senate,” said Wyden in a Friday post to X.
