Re: your hubby's US "healthcare card." It should really say "stay barely alive," so pharma can keep you consuming the greatest possible quantity of symptom-reducing drugs that don't actually treat any causation. But they'll keep you going: We need your business!

People in mental decline, with dementia, average people in an unfortunate situation should never be criticized. If a President of the biggest Empire in history has dementia we have every every right in the world to criticize, scoff at, sneer at, make fun of, etc. It's so scary and hilarious all at the same time. And he's a noted war monger. So I'll go with scary. Peace, The Ol' Hippy

P.S. The video is a great example.

Lol, I guess landlords should just give away their land and houses, and houses should just be free. Hell, let's stop paying people to make them, they should just grow from trees!

starting at 31 seconds in the video, Biden is dogwhisteling the fact that US big OIL wants Syria and Lybia's OIL future revenue. Probably not more than a couple Billion per year, and this will drive US foreign policy in the region for as long as it takes for the US OIL companies to get the money.

There are many snippets of wisdom here. One could write countless thoughts about each note, so I’ll pick just one:

“My whole life is interacting with binary-minded dimwits. You hate Democrats so you must be a Republican. You criticize the US empire so you must think China is perfect. You’re skeptical of the Pentagon’s UFO narrative so you must think all UFOs are weather balloons and swamp gas.”

I picked this one because of the China reference. There are many false binaries, which once refuted, allow us to see a very different and much more nuanced strategic global situation.

A lot of these false binaries and narratives serve to maintain the same geopolitical game, a “balance of power” as some have called it: the idea that Russia and China are the enemies.

In reality, the real enemy is not even a nation. It’s more of an oligarchical financial slime-mold that has migrated and shifted over the centuries. Its most modern face is Wall Street and the more ancient City of London, with the “Five Eyes” as its sophisticated intelligence gathering operation.

Whether you watch right-wing or left-wing media or anything in between, the underlying assumption that China and Russia are not enemies, or that the Western nations could have real cooperation with these nations, is categorically kept off the table.

In reality, short of nuclear war, the US and its allies will not be able to achieve regime change in either Russia or China. They will not be able to contain Russia or China, or rival things like the Belt and Road Initiative.

This is where the heart of the problem lies for the oligarchy. It may appear that the oligarchs have a sweeping amount of global control from a Western perspective, but in reality they are in a very real sense being strategically routed. One could argue that this is where the greatest danger lies: what happens once the oligarchy see’s that there’s really no way around this? Hence the Pentagon’s now open discussion of the real possibility of Nuclear war. They are hoping that Russia and China buckle out of fear. Some are certainly even likely willing to attempt a nuclear first strike. They have computer models and “game theory” telling them it’s actually possible.

In reality, the more a militarily bloated and financially bankrupt US tries to encircle and contain Russia and China—its Asia-pivot—the more it will simply use up whatever free energy and economic resources it has left. It’s ultimately actually the one being drawn down in Fabian style by Russia and China.

Even for some of the more corrupt folks within the establishment, the question at a certain point becomes what positive things can the US and its allies do if they’re to not be caught in a never-ending flurry of regime changes and psy-ops? The only thing they really can do is get their own banking and finances in order, which can’t be done without a Glass-Steagall type bankruptcy re-organization of the system. Short of that, they are staring into a quadrillion dollar black hole that will consume everything left.The US and central bank debts are beyond anything even remotely manageable.

If this is recognized, then all the crazy tactical stuff and maneuvering is easily seen for what it is: a desperate attempt by the Wall Street/City of London oligarchy to maintain icontrol over a system which has almost entirely cannibalized itself in order to keep a few zombie banks going for a little while longer. Fascism will be absolutely necessary to continue staving off the quadrillion dollar derivatives black hole for very much longer.

Caitlin, as much as you resist getting into the CV-19 fiasco, we need your perspective on how public health policy is helping hide and drive all that you and I and we see as dysfunctional leadership. CV-19 is being used to drive the planet toward "global governance" with the usual suspects at the helm. If you really have been immune to this, you dont have to go any further than Bobby Kennedy's Childrens' Health Defense. He is on of the leading voices not only related to vaccine safety but to the "sudden" acceleration of a concerted move deeper into global totalitarianism.

'Jimmy Dore lives so rent-free in Cenk Uygur's head that BlackRock is trying to buy it.' Brilliant.

The fucking world has fucking amnesia, imposed by the fucking elites behind the fucking corporate controllers behind the fucking governments. Fun to cuss when there seems to be few alternatives. The longest trip we take is inside...

Nah. He's always been like that. Just no one was paying any attention.

I wish we could just go with whatever's next instead of slogging through this stupidly drawn-out and dysfunctional narrative nightmare. Then again, both Germany and Japan continued to fight on when it was clear they had lost. (Really inspiring example l managed to come up with.)

A pretty disjointed collection of observations, but this one was pure gold: 'The only face more suitable for the US empire than a sociopathic billionaire is a decrepit warmongering corporate whore with dementia.' It's rare that someone can compress so much (entirely justifiable) venom into so few words.

If only Mr Trump had been prepared to just do as he was told by Those Who Matter, his other conspicuous shortcomings may well have been overlooked.

"The fact that Biden is continuing all of Trump's policies " : either replace the word 'fact' in this statement or replace the word 'all', you cannot have both...... otherwise it's false

The only interesting thing about this garbage is that you hilariously call it 'writing'

God the tankies are crawling out of the woodwork to cut off my legs to keep things equitable. Caitlin, if you're reading this, check out some of your fans as they've clearly never visited a country that values the collective over the individual.

High-hearted appreciation for your uniquely inspired vibrational musings, keep dancing! We can always go to others' vibrational outputs - RFK jr. for the CV-19 updates, Zach Bush MD for global hospice updates, etc. - each rhythm is part of the symphony of truth we need to hear.
