The headlines this morning included this one: “The US Military Can Walk and Chew Gum at the Same Time!” from none other than the Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin. All of y’all who thought Biden was nuts or senile, thinking we could take on China and Russia at the same time, with some left over for the Middle East, can just sit down and rest your noggin, it’s all good! This remarkable statement, reflecting the deepest conundrums being worked out inside the gray matter of the deep state and its extended nervous system, is validated by ther near simultaneous utterance by none other than Ukraine’s wartime leader Volodymyr Zelensky that, despite having limited ...
The ‘New G8’ Meets China’s ‘Three Rings’

The coming of the new G8 points to the inevitable advent of BRICS +, one of the key themes to be discussed in the upcoming BRICS summit in China. The speaker of the Duma, Vyacheslav Volodin, may have created the defining acronym for the emerging multipolar world: “the new G8”. As Volodin noted, “the United States has created conditions with its own hands so that countries wishing to build an equal dialogue and mutually beneficial relations will actually form a ‘new G8’ together with Russia.” This non Russia-sanctioning G8, he added, is 24.4% ahead of the old one, which is in fact the G7, in terms of GDP in purchasing power parity (PPP), as G7 economies are ...

Following President Biden's letter to many 'Big Oil' executives, threatening them with forced production quotas, windfall taxes, and/or price-caps (because all those things have proved so successful in past crises... not), Exxon Mobil issued a reasoned response to The White House accusations and scapegoating: (emphasis ours) We have been in regular contact with the administration to update the President and his staff on how ExxonMobil has been investing more than any other company to develop U.S. oil and gas supplies. This includes investments in the U.S. of more than $50 billion over the past five years, resulting in an almost 50% increase in our U.S. production of oil during ...

As I recall, there was a slogan many years ago urging “Go west, young man.” The story behind the phrase is a bit complicated but the idea was to go west and seek a better life. And many people went west to seek land, fortune, gold and, generally, a better future. The story has a new chapter, as my late father used to say. People are moving again and they are going to Mexico, according to a story on Daily Caller: Now that Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom and his cronies have ruined their state and inflation is crushing households, thousands of Californians are reversing the typical pattern and moving to Mexico. Many of the emigres count on the fact that their salaries from the ...

While longer-term structural factors are at play, the effects of the war in Ukraine are felt in many ways – the one that is probably most pervasive in the daily lives of people around the world is rising prices. As Statista's Katharina Buchholz notes, Russia and Ukraine have a significant influence on the world economy due to their role as suppliers of a number of essential raw materials. These include fossil fuels, agricultural commodities as well as several metals. The latest OECD Economic Outlook states that the two countries together account for around 30 percent of world wheat exports, 15 percent of maize exports, 20 percent of mineral fertilizers and natural gas exports as ...

Note: The Monday Taki post is up in the usual place. It is a different take on the post here today. Sunday Thoughts is up behind the green door for those who are in need of audio stimulation. There is a post on the war as well. A half century ago, President Richard Nixon closed the gold window. American citizens had been prohibited from owning gold since the early 1930s, but foreign governments could exchange their extra dollars for gold. France tried to make a run on the US gold supply so the American government was forced to break the final link between the dollar and gold, thus ending the gold standard. This set off a chain of events that eventually led to what has been known as the ...
Mexico President Slams “Immoral” NATO Proxy War in Ukraine

The president of Mexico has condemned NATO’s approach to the war in Ukraine – labelling it “immoral.” “How easy it is to say, ‘Here, I’ll send you this much money for weapons.’ Couldn’t the war in Ukraine have been avoided? Of course it could,” said President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. López Obrador didn’t elaborate on how, but fair to say a peaceful resolution would have centered on the negotiation of: Some form of independence for the eastern Ukraine provinces of Donetsk and Luhansk A Ukraine government pledge that it will not join NATO Ukraine’s recognition that Crimea is now part of Russia The ...

Kim Dotcom, the New Zealand tech guru, said the USA is beyond broke and deliberately so. The total US debt is at $90 trillion, which together with $169 trillion in US unfunded liabilities totals $259 trillion, which is $778,000 per US citizen or $2,067,000 per US Taxpayer. Now, the value of all US assets combined: every piece of land, real estate, all savings, all companies, everything that all citizens, businesses, entities and the state own is worth $193 trillion. Our total debt, $259 trillion minus our total net worth, $193 trillion equals negative $66 trillion of debt and liabilities after every asset in the US has been sold off. Actually, American assets in terms of stocks, bonds and ...

Biden's letter to Congress reaffirms continued US support for the Saudi-led coalition In a letter addressed to Congress earlier this week, President Joe Biden confirmed that the US has deployed troops to Yemen with the aim of battling extremist groups and continuing military support for the Saudi-led coalition.

According to Biden's letter, the US military will continue to work "closely" with ...

People look at me and say “man, it must be great to be Andrew Anglin and be right about everything all the time.” But it is not so. It’s a great burden I carry. The NATO is an organ of the US/ZOG machine. It’s possible that there are still people in the State Department trying to push this thing all the way to the end, but if the head of NATO is saying it’s time to concede to Russia, the show is over and it’s just a matter of how long it is going to take for the gears to move. Poster Comment:That was fast. The war in Afghanistan took 20 years to lose.

The Russian occupation authorities in southern Ukraine say they have started handing out Russian passports to locals in two cities - Kherson and Melitopol. Ukraine condemns the creation of Russian citizens on its territory as "Russification". President Vladimir Putin is fast-tracking the procedure. Russia's Tass news agency says the first 23 Kherson residents got Russian passports at a ceremony on Saturday. Tass says thousands have applied for them, but its claim cannot be verified. The Russian-appointed military governor in Kherson, Volodymyr Saldo, said "all our Khersonite comrades want to receive the passport and [Russian] citizenship as soon as possible". ...

Forty-one tons of wood laminate sheeting is on its way from Russia to India. The cargo isn't newsworthy, but the fact that it's traveling through Iran absolutely is—potentially marking the opening of a significant new trade corridor that strengthens Iran's relationship with India...with big geopolitical implications. On Saturday, Iran's Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) announced that a pilot run for the new trade route was underway, with the wood laminate's transit being managed by the state-run Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines Group. The shipping arrangement enables the use of one bill of lading for the entire journey, which reduces transport costs, red ...
