Renewal, Rebirth, Resurrection?

Today's title certainly applies to the natural world, which has exploded in green. Sadly the title does not apply to the US nor it's constitution. This week the US teeters on the brink of war, or is it peace, in Ukraine and Iran. The administration is divided by the two key conflicts. The China trade war isn't going well. Trump told 'elensky this week he shouldn't have picked war with an adversary twenty times bigger and more powerful. He needs to take his own advice with regards to China. It does appear that a new world economy is evolving, probably with some form of digital currency. The current system is in collapse.

The Disastrous Economic War
Tariffs, Taxes, and Terror

I suspect the economic chaos created by the tariffs was called off by Trump's billionaire buddies. The Trumpeteers claim it is 5D chess, but I'm sticking with chaos, mayhem, and blunder. The outcome is an economic war with China which the US is bound to lose. An economic war supposedly declared because of China's counter tariffs, but I might point out the EU and Canada both planned counter-tariffs and have escaped Trump's wrath so far. Meanwhile the US continues its inane bombing of Yemen (to no avail) as the Houthis continue striking US ships. Bibi came to the White House this week to encourage a war with Iran. There's debate about whether Trump will acquiesce. The demands being made to Iran are unacceptable. So here we are on the brink of economic and military disaster. Let's dive deeper below the fold....

Bombs Away

Trump is wasting lots of bombs hitting Yemen again and again...killing mainly civilians, many women and children. Israel is still bombing Gaza, Syria, and Lebanon...that is on our dime too. The European chihuahuas want to build more bombs and weapons so they can get in on the action... thinking that will save their economies. Those who object are being silenced one way or another. France eliminated Le Pen this week much like Romania eliminated their anti-war leading candidate. UK citizens are being arrested for retweeting memes that are unapproved by TPTB. Here in the US we deport those critical of the Gaza genocide without due process. Will they eventually target citizens critical of the Zionists? In some ways they already have. The tariff wars have begun, and how that evolves has yet to be seen. These stories and more below the fold...

Signals Crossed

The MSM has focused on "signal gate" this week. What I find ironic is the focus is that it was leaked (probably given) to a reporter (of sorts), but no outrage at the content of the messages....We're gonna kill a bunch of civilians to send Iran a message. Pepe is in Yemen this week and he explains the nature of the society in clips below the fold. The US and Russia reached an agreement for a Black Sea Ceasefire, but the European chihuahuas are refusing to come to heel. They refuse peace. Here in the US it seems people are Trump cultists or Trump deranged fanatics with little in between. The MSM has done their best to divide us along those lines. Meanwhile we are deporting pro-Palestinian foreigners. The first amendment obviously has been discarded. Judge Nap has a piece on the history of free speech.
“I disagree with what you say but will defend to the death your right to say it.” ​— Voltaire (1694-1778). All that and more below the fold...

Jimmy concurs no one is covering the substance of the leak...another illegal war (~12 min)

Half-Assed Peace President

The Donald seems to be trying to broker a peace deal in Ukraine, but Ukraine and the EU aren't interested. The partial ceasefire is being ignored and Russian energy infrastructure is being attacked. In an act of stupidity, the US started bombing the Houthis in a pre-emptive strike while they were refraining from blocking shipping despite the renewed genocide in the Gaza. Now the Houthis are directly striking Israel. Is this a move to start a war with Iran? To top it off we have deportations and censorship of anyone protesting the Palestinian genocide... What about the first amendment? Trump continues his good, bad, and ugly policies. All that plus the economy, food, and farming below the fold.
A real peace president...

(6 min) Retrospective of JFK's "Peace Speech"

Democrazy?

In plain view is the insanity of western (so called) democracies. Romania leads the way. First they cancel elections cause "far right' Georgescu was called to win. Now they charge, arrest, and eliminate him from running...The most popular candidate. Then consider the side lining of the first and second most popular elected parties in Austria, Germany, France, and others. Then there's Canada, now appointing a UK central banker as PM while playing against the Trump rhetoric as an election looms. Here in the US we call for free speech as pro-Palestinian speech is suppressed. The EU is a joke to my mind with an appointed board controlling elected national leaders. My question is: what democracy are you talking about?

The Times They Are A'Changin'

Well, we were robbed of an hour of sleep last night as we sprung forward in an inane practice most people want to end. Personally, I prefer standard time (I'm a morning person), but I would settle for DST if it was made permanent. It was another busy news cycle this week. Trump makes a State of the Union address. Europe holds war councils in an effort to keep killing Ukrainians...going so far as saying they will trade the welfare of the citizens for warfare. The European elite have lost their ever loving minds. The Islamic State In Suits in Syria is slaughtering non believers. The US is evidently meeting with Hamas perhaps in an effort to make an end run around Nitwityahoo. I have no idea about about the tariffs on, tariffs off scheme. I hear some say how bad tariffs will be and others claiming they are great. There's some of both opinions below the fold along with many other stories.

European Clown Car Circus

Another news filled week. The European Chihuahuas came to seek the favor of their master. One snaps at the hand that feeds him, and all four leave with their tail between their legs. EU style democracy doesn't look so good. Calin Georgescu, the populist frontrunner in Romania's annulled 2024 presidential election, was arrested while en route to register his candidacy for the upcoming May election. Perhaps Trump will finally stop all shipments of weapons and money to Ukraine. Sadly that isn't the case with Israel which is now occupying parts of Lebanon and Syria as they continue their expansion in the West Bank. US hypocrisy is on display, J. D. Vance criticizes the EU for their suppression of speech as the DOJ and FBI target pro-Palestine speech. The economy is probably in a recession which looks to deepen. Those stories and more below the fold.

The European elite and US neocons are in panic mode over ways to keep the Ukraine proxy war going. They were in literal tears as they closed down the Munich Security Council. Macron and Starmer are headed to DC to beg their master for more war. Pepe calls them Chihuahuas, and Putin predicted they would come to heel at the foot of their master. The summit in Riyadh was a good first step at normalizing US/Russian relations. Let's hope we continue down that path. D.O.G.E. is looking dodgy to me suggesting rebating taxpayers rather than applying it to our massive debt. Perhaps they see it as a stimulus package? Kash Patel made it through the senate to be appointed head of the FBI. Let's hope he follows through on his promised transparency and document releases. Plus lots more below the fold!
European warmongers try to develop a plan to keep the war going this week...but fail to do so.

European Meltdown and Rapid Fire Actions

The Trump administration is busy. It's difficult to keep up with the divergent paths of action from them. This week we had the good news that both Tulsi and RFK were confirmed. I enjoyed both Hegseth's and Vance's speeches in Munich, and the resulting globalists' outrage. Trump spoke extensively with Putin and they plan to meet in Saudi Arabia as Russia continues to gain ground in Ukraine. To my mind, the drone strike at Chernobyl was probably a false flag by Ukraine. The D.O.G.E. movement seems to be gaining speed and the support of the majority, despite the Demwit's fight against it. This week NED funding was suspended. The wall is being built again and many deportations are happening. The Gaza ceasefire remains tenuous with hostage exchanges still occurring. Plus we had Taibbi and Shellenburger testifying again in congress this week. Is your head spinning yet? All this and more below the fold...
