2024, in with a bang.
Let me begin with the obvious reflection and observation.
I’m old enough to remember partying in 1999 thinking we were on the dawn of a new Millenium and about to enter an age of wonder, space travel & groundbreaking medical advancements.
Hollywood had billed us and filled us with expectation.
After all, the original Blade Runner, a futuristic sci-fi thriller took place in Los Angeles during the year 2019 for chrissakes. By 2020, we all expected flying cars, floating cities, servant robots and global peace (remember Fukiyama’s ‘The End of History’?).
Instead we got:
Pregnant men who think they can menstruate and 600 genders;
Lectured that reading, writing, math and a strong work ethic are signs of ‘white supremacy;
Open borders combined with shrinking resources;
7th century barbarians and Satan-worshipping rapists being applauded by administrations and students of our most prestigious universities as the Current Thing Cause célèbre;
And a Leader of the Free World who is the most demented and senile person most of us have ever seen.
So yeah, to say I’m disappointed would be an understatement.
We can skip the politics (although it’s really all intertwined these days) and register disappointment in other fields as well.
Technology - Peter Thiel has been a vocal critic of the pace and focus of technological advancement over the last 40 years. Our progress has been concentrated less on physical sciences and and more on social apps such as making a superior pic editor for Instagram.
With the notable exception of Elon Musk and his advancements with SpaceX, Starlink and Neuralink, how many other major advancements can we point to in the realm of materials and physical science? We went to the moon 53 years ago with a computer that was 1/100,000,000 as powerful as the iPhone in your pocket. What have we done since?
Healthcare - almost no comment needed. The Covid Scamdemic illustrated the abject corruption and incompetence of the public health sector. It’s unlikely this institution will ever recover. We ignored hundreds of years of data and common sense to mask up, lock down (code for ‘destroy’) small businesses, deploy an experimental untested injection we lied about that turned out to be neither safe nor effective.
Even before Covid, where are the great advancements we were promised? We’ve been on the verge of ‘curing’ cancer for 75 years.
Diabetes and heart disease still kill and maim the lives of tens of millions every year.
Obesity and mental illness are both national epidemics.
And the cherry on top is for the first time in decades, fertility and life expectancy is dropping rapidly for all Americans.
Perhaps grades, rankings, and meritocracy really are passé and The New Way is better.
After all, we may be sicker all around, dying sooner and paying more for nearly everything while wages have stagnated, but look on the bright side. We now have people teaching courses, flying airplanes and doing surgeries who have never held those positions throughout our prior history.
The slight downside to all this is that many of them are held to a much lower standard than at any time in history as well.
I guess that’s progress by some people’s definition.
We’re about to find out just how compromised and corrupted the Old Way has been by the New Way.
The resolution won’t be pretty, and it won’t be easy.
But in the end, hopefully merit and truth prevail.
Our future depends on it.
This week we dive into Jeffrey Epstein, election fraud, Vivek and others stories of the week.
Next week, we return to personal responsibility and how to be prepared for the coming maelstrom.
You won’t want to miss it.
Jeffrey
The Jeffrey Epstein state-sponsored honeypot is receiving another turn in the ‘media’ as a series of documents from the 2015 Virginia Giuffre trial are being unsealed by a Federal Judge.
Giuffre, one of Epstein’s victims, filed a lawsuit claiming Epstein had flown her around the world trafficking her for sexual encounters with billionaires, politicians, royals and heads of state.
My take is simple here. Like Covid, this is one of the two most important stories of the decade/century and without some actual resolution and truth, we have no chance as a Republic.
They can be accessed if you type the website into archive.ph or web.archive.org.
It is important to state that we should not automatically consider every name in the files to be evidence that they were pedophiles or complicit in his operations.
Here’s a brief summary from TechnoFog on Twitter with examples of certain names and documents.
When considering the disclosure, it's crucial to pose several questions:
What prompted the unsealing of the list at this particular time?
What factors contributed to its prolonged delay?
Can we trust the accuracy of the information, or is this simply part of the larger 'clean-up' effort observed since the initial emergence of the story and the dubious circumstances of his 'suicide'?
Also, why is the information being released piecemeal? Similar to the gradual disclosure of documents related to the JFK assassination, Pfizer vaccine trials, UFO sightings, and other sensitive government materials, the default stance in a democratic society should be to make everything public immediately, unless there's a compelling reason to withhold it. The presumption should be withholding information means there’s an attempt to conceal something.
Either way, I think it’s fair to say the burden of proof shifts for those mentioned in the case to disclose what their role was and whether the information is true.
Bill Clinton, who flew to Epstein’s child-rape island more than two dozen times is of course featured prominently.
In any serious nation, Clinton would have already been interrogated and arrested based on the testimony of Giuffre and others.
At a minimum, an innocent person would take the opportunity to attempt to clear his name - something Bill and his demonic wife Cankles the Sea Hag have studiously avoided.
For those not well-versed in the story, I recommend Whitney Webb’s excellent 2 part book ‘One Nation under Blackmail’ and MartyrMade’s opening to his 5 hour podcast on the subject.
Whitney Webb Interview on TFTC.
MartyrMade Free Bonus Epstein Episode
The remarkable part is still that this should be the biggest story in history.
An intelligence honeypot, where the agent is a known pedophile and corrupts other political and business leaders, where hundreds of the world’s most powerful figures flew to a private island to rape kids, and where both Epstein and his partner in crime Ghislane Maxwell were both convicted of sex trafficking, yet not a single one of their high-profile clients has faced arrest or prosecution, is absolutely staggering
The alleged clients have received virtually zero law enforcement scrutiny. Compare that to the non-violent selfie-taking tourists who strolled through the Capitol 3 years ago and were arrested in pre-dawn raid, imprisoned in solitary confinement, denied counsel and due process and then collectively sentenced to over 840 years in prison.
Case in point - The FBI recently arrested a grandma armed with a water bottle for her role on January 6th, and yet they have not arrested a single person for raping children on Epstein's Island despite the meticulous records (and likely videos) that Epstein possessed.
The ugly, unavoidable truth is that our government is riddled with individuals who are either corrupt or unwittingly entangled in what might be the largest blackmail scheme in history.
It’s the only way to explain why no one has been held accountable, and why policies that the public overwhelming support like Voter ID or securing the border don’t get legislated into law.
Case in point - just this weekend, law enforcement had time to conduct a full raid of Amos Miller’s organic farm in Pennsylvania for the crime of selling raw milk farm and Feds conducted a predawn raid of 3 protestors from the January 6th Entrapment Riot….but not a single open case or investigation into the child rapists in government and business.
We are not a serious country.
Jan 6
Let me start by wishing a belated Happy Jan 6th Day to my friends and family. 🇺🇸
To commemorate the event, Biden gave another one of his angry, growling incoherent speeches on the topic.
From a content perspective, Dems continue to double down on the bizarre “we had to kill Democracy to save it” theme that has defined their actions over the past 3 years from eliminating the Democratic primaries, to mobilizing the full weight of law enforcement and the intelligence community to remove Trump from the ballot and prosecute him over 4 entirely ‘make-believe’ cases.
Now from a logistical perspective, at least we can see some progress as the Dems have learned to key points.
The first is to have Jill Biden lead Joe off the stage when he’s done with his speech so he doesn’t wander around and spin in circles like a drunk zombie from the Walking Dead.
The second is that it makes the message slightly less frightening and evil when they put a background of an American Flag behind him rather than something out of a Sith Lord keynote speech.
Scott Adams and Simon Ateba sum things up nicely.
Dems just can’t leave this monstrosity of a fabrication alone.
During his speech, Biden snarled,"Jill and I attended the funerals of police officers who died as a results of" January 6th.”
So they attended ZERO funerals? Not a single police officer was killed on January 6th. In fact, the only person killed was a female Air Force Veteran Ashli Babbitt who was murdered by a trigger happy Capitol Police Officer with a history of reckless shootings.
This demented POS just can't stop lying.
On the serious side, January 6th continues to be a polarizing event that rather than an ‘insurrection’ as its labeled by the MockingBird media (again, the first insurrection in history by unarmed people invited into the Capitol and strolling thru taking selfies - must be that 6G Warfare I’ve heard about it…)
In reality, the Jan 6th riot now that the censored information by the J6 Kangaroo Court is being leaked out seems much more likely to be a case of entrapment, an American Reichstag if you will constructed by the Regime to cement their power and send the American Cheka after their domestic political opponents.
Jan 6 was the farthest thing in the world from an insurrection and you should never take seriously again anyone who used that term.
If anything it was a ‘Fedsurrection’ as multiple sources have now confirmed there were hundreds of Federal Agents in the crowd inciting the riot.
J6 prisoners are political prisoners who have been denied their rights and due process. Many were cheated out of their Brady disclosures and other rights enabling them to see exculpatory evidence by crooked prosecutors and Judges.
Not availing a defendant exculpatory evidence is a disgustingly gross violation of the Constitution and those responsible should lose their jobs at a minimum.
In any prosecution where this was the case, the defendant’s conviction should be overturned and the prosecutor and FBI agents involved in that prosecution should be summarily fired and stripped of their license to practice law.
Anyone who has rotted in prison without counsel or the right to a trial should be immediately released or brought to trial within 60 days. If convicted, most should be released that day for time served.
As I’ve noted plenty of times before, in the old days if you try to kill someone and destroy their livelihood and liberty under false pretenses, there’s no, ‘Sorry my bad’ (not that these criminals would even apologize).
It’s an eye for an eye. Until real Americans start pushing back for real on these Struggle Sessions and other forms of authoritarianism run amok, we’re destined to remain in this corrupt timeline.
Here’s Tucker Carlson’s interview with Congressmen Clay Higgins which is a great summary of the actual events that took place on Jan 6.
I also highly recommend watching the new documentary by the Epoch Times, one of the last objective and honest media sources out there.
Epoch Original Movie - The Real Jan 6 Story
Adios Claudine Gay
As predicted here and by others, last week saw the departure of the loathsome Claudine Gay finally. The amazing part, was how long it took when the end result was a given.
By postponing the inevitable, Harvard has only exacerbated damage to its reputation, highlighting the stark contrast between the lofty claims of the academic elite and the reality of diluted standards to accommodate DEI candidates. This decision has laid bare the deep chasm between professed values and actual practices in elite educational institutions.
After all, how can you judge the leader of the world’s formerly most respected college and the students of that institution under two radically different standards?
Gay deserved to be fired for her morally vacuous and borderline anti-semitic ramblings on ‘calls for genocide deserve context’ testimony to Congress.
Her eventual demise was the result of citizen journalists on the Right turning a microscope to her pathetically feeble academic publishing record and discovering over 50 instances of plagiarism - any one of which would have meany expulsion for a student.
Most importantly, the entire ordeal has opened up a previously verboten conversation on the costs and benefits of DEI, and whether it’s worth sacrificing competency for some unknown metric of ‘diversity’ (which is rarely diverse in any way other than skin color).
The best part has been watching the race-grifters on the Left screech in pain as one of their own was sacrificed on the altar of competency.
1619 Project fan fiction author and race-baiting fraudster Ida Bae Wells was quick to respond with her usual measured and intelligent take.
Apparently, promoting genocide and serial plagiarism is now the barometer for ‘academic freedom’.
Not to be outdone, NAACP Director Ivory Toldson jumped on the bandwagon with, "We cannot let Dr. Gay’s legacy be tarnished and erased. We must demand answers and accountability from Harvard and from Congress."
Uhhh, I’m pretty sure she tarnished her own legacy when she plagiarized people like Dr. Carol Swain and then lied about it. And ‘accountability’ is exactly what she got when they shitcanned her.
I always thought the ‘P’ in NAACP stood for people, but apparently this organization is now the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Plagiarists. Not that it matters. They haven’t done or said anything useful in over 5 decades.
My favorite though was hearing the AP describe the whole fiasco.
Yep, those awful white colonists with their barbaric practice of scalping…😂
Vivek
I get flack occasionally from my Trump people so let me preface this with almost certainly, outside of his death, Trump will be the Republican candidate (and I will vote for whomever the Republican candidate is (unless God forbid it’s Haley….which in that case please let there be an RFK/Vivek ticket).
But if it’s not Trump, I pray Vivek is the candidate.
I can say with utter confidence, there has never been a better or more intelligent, articulate or qualified candidate to run for office.
In case you missed it, Vivek was doing yeoman’s work taking a sledgehammer to the corrupt MockingBird Media all week.
Here’s a couple of terrific clips and exchanges.
Please enjoy this video of Vivek demolishing a Washington Post reporter on “condemning white supremacy”. This is how you respond to these race-baiting parasites. The Media is the enemy and Vivek’s response is glorious.
And then Community Notes (on Twitter) for the win after the reporter went to Twitter to try to recharacterize the exchange.
And just when you thought he couldn’t get better, here's Vivek the next day dismantling NBC reporter (two of them actually) trying to play the same ‘gotcha’ game.
Here’s a clip as well when Vivek got challenged this week by a black pastor on his statement that reverse racism is racism. Before he answered, the pastor challenged Vivek to do 10 pushups with him which they both completed. Imagine Biden, Nikki Haley (or Trump) trying to answer this question (or do the pushups).
German Farmers
You probably didn’t see this on the nightly news, but German farmers have brought the country to it’s knees to protest farming tax hike protests.
Climate change hysteria is the motivating factor here, in the Netherlands and other countries where governments have tried to enact policies that will end with mass starvation of their citizens all in the name of ‘fighting’ climate change.
I’ll say it again.
If you look at our government and other Western governments as psychopathic, compromised elites doing everything they can to starve, murder and enslave you, things make a lot more sense.
Whether it’s the movement licenses (vaccine passports), experimental injections (covid vaccines), climate change hysteria, open borders or any of the other government actions of the last decade, stop looking at government as ‘trying to help’ and start seeing them as the advocates for depopulation and totalitarian control that they are.
Elections
This week, President Trump released a summary of election fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election in the swing states.
I'm looking forward to seeing fact-checkers address this, referencing information from mainstream news outlets that maintained for four years that Donald Trump was a Russian Agent and that Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian-sponsored disinformation.
Here’s the Introduction to the “Summary of Election Fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election in the Swing States” and select screenshots of the report.
I encourage you to personally review the numerous citations in this report (link below) and reach your own conclusions.
“It has often been repeated there is “no evidence” of fraud in the 2020 Election. In actuality, there is no evidence Joe Biden won.
Ongoing investigations in the Swing States reveal hundreds of thousands of votes were altered and/or not lawfully cast in the Presidential Election. Joe Biden needed them. On Election Night Nov. 3, 2020, President Donald J. Trump was sailing to reelection with landslide leads in numerous battlegrounds. In Georgia, President Trump was up by 12 points, and over 335,000 votes, with 56 percent of the vote in at 10:17 p.m. In Wisconsin, President Trump was leading by 121,380 votes and 5 points at 12:12 a.m., which Fox News anchor Bret Baier noted was “not a small margin.” In Pennsylvania, President Trump was leading by 659,145 votes at 12:38 a.m., a full 15 points. In Michigan, President Trump was leading by 293,052 votes and 10 points.
The election was over. However, precincts in Atlanta, Detroit, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and Milwaukee kept counting until the results reached the desired outcome, which was the opposite of the will of the voters. Georgia went from having a total of 4.7 million votes, already a record for the state, according to Brad Raffensperger’s count on Nov. 4, to certifying almost 5 million. This was 300,000 more votes than what the top elections official claimed were cast in the Election.
Getting to this result in Georgia, and other states, created an irredeemably compromised Election, filled with violations of the Constitution, unlawful ballots, widespread broken chain of custody, electronic manipulation, and missing and corrupted election files that made it uncertifiable — and impossible to recreate the results.
President Trump was right to voice his objections to what had unfolded before the country’s eyes. Republican poll watchers were denied access to the counting in multiple jurisdictions and ballots were counted in secret in the middle of the night without media or observers present. Countless irregularities emerged, including reports of ineligible voters, voting machine anomalies, “water main breaks,” improbable percentages of ballots for Biden, and more.
Since, investigations across the country have uncovered an avalanche of irregularities, unlawful activity, manipulation of election records, destruction of evidence, and fraud. The findings, which are outcome determinative, are detailed in the summaries of the Swing States.”
Despite the MSM lies that 60+ election challenges found no evidence of wrongdoing, there were actually 92 cases, with only 30 decided on the merits, and of those 30, Trump and/or the GOP plaintiff prevailed in 22 of them’.
Here’s Kyle Becker from Becker News: “An Election Integrity review conducted on 92 court challenges filed over the 2020 election found that a clear majority of the cases decided on the merits were ruled favorably for the plaintiffs; particularly, the Republican Party and the Trump campaign…‘You’re gonna wanna bookmark this,’ remarked Arizona Sun Times reporter @ Rach_IC. ‘This is a compilation of all of the 2020 election challenges and what became of them. Despite the MSM lies that 60+ election challenges found no evidence of wrongdoing, there were actually 92 cases, with only 30 decided on the merits, and of those 30, Trump and/or the GOP plaintiff prevailed in 22 of them’…many states have since decided that 2020 election practices such as the inclusion of privately funded ‘Zuckerboxes’ were either illegal or were subsequently outlawed…Thus debunks a widespread narrative: Trump’s legal challenges to the 2020 election were all ‘baseless.’”
And here’s the link to the spreadsheet that I’ve posted before.
And Patrick Byrne’s lawyers turning up the heat by demanding Jim Jordan and the House investigate former Attorney General Bill Barr who became a radically different person after a mysterious meeting with Rupert Murdoch in 2020.
If you still believe that a severely demented and corrupt man who never left his basement beat Donald Trump and garnered more votes (with fewer key counties) than both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, well, I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn….
The coup de grâce was when the elements that conspired to steal the election all got together and ran a front page story in a major magazine patting each other on the back for, “Saving Democracy”. (Again, that phrase. I do not think it means what they think it means.)
Nevertheless, none of that matters. The DNC and intelligence community will run the same exact playbook in 2024 as almost none of the election apparatus in these states and others have been fortified to protect from additional fraud and cheating.
Republicans should be singularly focused on their ground game (registering voters) and improving election security at this point. We’ve got 10 million new illegal immigrants who have flooded our country deliberately at the behest of the Biden administration to help perpetrate election fraud and cause chaos (and who can save us from this chaos? Why the government of course!).
Either way, I expect massive disruptions this year to in-person voting designed to suppress the Republican vote and turnout. Republicans should take full advantage of mail-in voting and vote early. If possible, show up voting day as well to confirm your votes.
In a free and fair election, Trump (or the Republican candidate) wins by 20 million votes in an electoral landslide. The other side knows they have to cheat to win, and will pull out all the stops and then some just as they did in 2020.
I still expect things to get tighter when Biden pulls out mid-year due to a medical emergency and somehow Dems solve the ‘Kamala problem’ with a decidedly undemocratic unilateral nomination at the convention or elsewhere of Newsom or Michelle.
ETF Week for Bitcoin
Odds seem decent that a spot Bitcoin ETF will finally be approved this week. There is a window from January 5th-January 10th to approve the latest applications from BlackRock, Van Eck and other ETF providers.
Whether or not it happens this week (call it 70/30 in favor), it almost certainly will happen in March.
If you don’t already have some Bitcoin, best case scenario is the SEC delays the approval again and BTC sells off a bit in disappointment.
At best, I could see a retrace to $35K with $38-40K more likely.
Either way, the clock is ticking.
The upcoming weeks or months could be your final opportunity to purchase a significant amount of bitcoin at a price within your reach.
I’ve been advising you of this for close to 7 years now.
Don't let this opportunity slip by.
