Action Alert – List of States Where “Money” Is Being Redefined and Non Govt Issued Cryptocurrency Is Being Banned
What’s interesting is that currency is supposed to be issued by the Treasury, not at the state level…unless my civics classes were so long ago I’m not remembering that correctly. Wasn’t that part of why the Articles of Confederation failed, due to states issuing their own currency which was worthless in other states? And what is backing bitcoin? No commodity, where’s the value?

MEMES!
For those who saw the Dylan Mulvaney interview by Drew Barrymore, this is the meme of the day.
Have a good day y’all.
(I don’t remember who brought this to a daily in the comments, but thanks.)
And, of course, the obligatory George Carlin:
Per the Boss:
And now for the obligatory message from our sponsors:
Here at the Q tree we believe in the concept of CIVIL open free speech and the discussion that fleshes out ideas. When commenting and participating in the OPEN discussion on this thread all comments MUST NOT CONTAIN personal threats, baiting, name calling, or other anti-social words fomenting hate, violence or destruction. Our host Wolfm00n has strict rules about that.
Fellow tree dweller, the late Wheatie, gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:
- No food fights.
- No running with scissors.
- If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone
Please, stock up on blanks for celebratory gunfire, be ready to swing from the chandeliers…and no messing with the nuclear weapons.
Please remember to remain locked and loaded and ready for trouble should the insurrectionists try to invade your space.
Those who have things to say that do not fit the generally accepted limits of “civil” discussion, Wolf has provided a venue known as the UTree. You’re welcome to visit over there and say hi to anyone hanging out over there. The “Rescue Thread” is also over there. In the event a rendezvous of the tree is needed, please check it out, as well as the newest rescue venue.

MATTHEW 5:17-19
17“Think not that I have come to abolish the law and the prophets; I have come not to abolish them but to fulfil them. 18For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the law until all is accomplished. 19Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.
Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.
And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.
It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
Even with an advanced case of delayed-onset Daylight Savings grogginess, I can recognize a quality thread by our much-appreciated DePat!

The tweet about Harry Hoxsey said this:
So I did look him up. Since I don’t trust the medical profession and 3-letter agencies, it’s hard to know whom to believe. This article says:
The Hoxsey herbal mixture doesn’t cure cancer
https://healthfeedback.org/claimreview/hoxsey-herbal-mixture-doesnt-cure-cancer/
This seems like a failure of the medical profession. At least test it out.
Wiki says this.
Whom to believe? I would think that natural practitioners would be using this today if it worked. At any rate, it doesn’t seem like something to use as the first line of defense.
And the claims in that tweet are false. It makes it sound as if every patient had a miraculous cure, but that wasn’t the case. IMO, that is misleading in the same way that people have been misled about the COVID vax, and it is cruel to give people false hope by making them think it’s a fool-proof cure for cancer.
The apricot pit cure?
I’m not sure. Apricots were not mentioned, to my knowledge.
I also looked him up.
I think cancers are very complex, and there is no one-size-fits-all treatment or cure. That is why I am skeptical of “cures all cancers” claims from anyone.
Years and years ago, when I still read the New Yorker, there was a wonderfully detailed article about the top cancer doctor at a NYC hospital himself getting cancer, and a serious form of it. IIRC, the article was written by the doctor himself.
Anyway, again IIRC, the doctor said that each cancer (not each TYPE of cancer, each cancer) was unique in its constitution to each patient. He said in order to understand a particular patient’s cancer, extremely comprehensive and detailed analysis could be done, but was so extravagantly minute and expensive, that it was never done. Except in his case.
The doctor worked with cancer specialists and researchers who freely volunteered to devote lengthy (months?) long examination of the doctor’s unique cancer. (Again, not a unique type, it was lung cancer or some organ cancer, I forget what).
After the final assessment was made, a treatment program was devised. The doctor said he would have died from the cancer otherwise, but he lived.
He acknowledged that his life was saved because of who he was, and his access not to money, but to colleague/specialists willing to put in the research time.
Great information! And not at all surprising to me. All human beings are unique individuals, and every illness effects them differently.
I read someplace that sugar feeds cancer. I can believe that and I think the cure for cancer or even better preventing it is multi . One thing does not fit everyone we are all very complex. That of things contribute from stress to food to toxic spray on foods and around us not forget the air we breath.
All we can do is get enough rest, eat healthy and breath clean air the rest is hope and pray. I deal with it when or if I ever get it. Hopefully I embrace , love and put my faith in God and Christ healing what other choices are there?
I think you are right about the sugar. And I also agree that all we can do is the best we can to stay healthy, trust God, and deal with what comes. 🙂
Yes and count our blessings and not forget being grateful for every day and all the days past that helped us to be who we are today 🙂
Amen.
Look up Dr. Seyfried who goes into this very issue. A short clip from a recent interview.
Thank you very interesting. I knew for years that sugar is bad and controlled my son’s hyperactivity with diet no drugs. Of course all my did kids benefit from it.
It looks to me from what I’ve seen that cancer has multiple possible causes with the same symptom…it’s a class of distinct illnesses, not one illness.
Thus I’d not expect one cure to handle them all.
But…I am not a medical researcher so it wouldn’t surprise me greatly to be proved wrong. (Though this doesn’t look like that proof.)
I never noticed the noose on the dollar bill before. 😅
I like Janet Yellen chief thief.
you made me look 🙂
It’s a trick question. The rest get the noose.

It’s just unreal, to think beings who qualify as humans actually did those things 😂
We need to archive it for our kids & grandkids…Never Again!
During covid madness my husband ask me to stay home he would shop. The reason was I spend to much time in the store and do not fallow rules . His fear is I will do something that get me in trouble and he has to bail me out 😂
Knowing myself he is right I always went against the grain not good German habits even as little kid I did my thing .
I guess i would have been covid obedient if I saw the danger and would have been more obedient if I thought the mask was effective. But then what do I know nothing 😂
❤️
(:
“ But then what do I know nothing 😂 “
Apparently quite a lot.
That reminds me of a Ronald Reagan story. He was telling a story about Liberals. The quote goes something like this but I am probably paraphrasing. “The trouble with our Liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.”
Yes I think there is a problem knowing to much . So many of them fell for the scam.
I learned early in life dumb is good and one can stay out of trouble 🙂
LOL!!! I did the same thing but for different reasons. I absolutely WOULD NOT wear any masking device.
Blech!
🙂 🙂 🙂 You made me laugh 🙂
That one is right up there with taking off your mask to eat.
People in my family highly educated swear by the mask and swear that it prevents the flu and covid . They tell me they have not had the flu in three years neither have I who does not wear one 🙂
I wonder where did the flu go? Was it created by giving everyone the flu shot?
I know I got sick after every flu shot and people who should know better in my family told me science does not prove that one gets sick from the flu shot.
I feel so much better not taking the shot. At this point I am ready never to go to a doctor again.
Q. Where did the Flu go?
A. Flu was RENAMED Covidiocy.
Yes agree 🙂
“At this point I am ready never to go to a doctor again.” ditto, but we Have to go at least once a year to get the lower cost “wellness” health insurance discount through hubby’s work.
Yes me too wellness check up once a year. If I can get away with it might not do it.
We went a year plus with no doctor visits because we mostly had no insurance. We’re still standing 😉
I did go without a doctor visit for 30 years because I was not sick. When I grew up one only went if one was sick. Now I go once a year to make my husband happy. 🙂
That’s how I tend to think. Doctors have mostly lost their “lofty” place in many of our minds unless they prove otherwise. “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” is good take care of our health ourselves advice 😉
Yes that is a universal saying must be true 🙂
Eat natural & healthy & enjoy God’s blessings & the need for doctors will be rare!
I like that 🙂
I think you live it too 🙂
Indeed. SO the ‘virus’ is above 48″ AFF?
No doubt!
I shared an elevator once with Annette Bening, Warren Beatty and a colleague. At the old Fairfax Hotel, as we were finishing the renovation of what was flagged as the DC Ritz-Carlton.
Annette Bening shoved her face into the wall so we could not recognize her.
We would NEVER have recognized her. This was 32 years ago.
Warren, on the other hand was adorable and nice. 3 minutes of a ride!!!!
Hysterical!
Oh, PS prior to Covid, for the under-40 crowd.
LOL
Amazing! I had a lengthy conversation w/ “Iggy Pop” outside of our daughters’ ballet class nearly 2 decades ago. He was really hurting as a fairly recent widower. He’d told me his real name (which I’ve forgotten all these years later) & that’s how I referred to him, trying to treat him like a “regular” person with God’s love & compassion.
You have such a priceless memory there! 🙂
It’s hard to believe that he is 75 years old. People would have given odds that he’d never see 50.
I think somebody compared bj clinton (bill jefferson, per Levin) to similar aged rock stars & the rock stars looked younger & better. Evil, grifting, & perversion apparently are worse than sex, drugs, & rock & roll LOL

I don’t necessarily agree that she was dressed modestly. She was very good looking so of course she got looks. That dress was tailored to accentuate her shape and she was display-walking. And she was walking against the flow of most of the people.

Yes, and there was a provocative split that didn’t show too much. She was tall, and her heels made her taller. Very attractive, but people are going to look when someone dresses so out of the norm and looks great. Put an overweight granny in a skirt out there and I doubt she’d get a second look.
Yea, true. But, I’d be on the lookout if she needed a hand, hold a door…
I will remember that.

I know two younger moms, one is 38 one is 27 and I tell them about this, they can’t believe it. They also can’t believe we weren’t sick all the time and that we went outside to recess every day and again when we got home from school. Of course they don’t understand the concept that my mother didn’t work outside the home and cooked 3 meals a day every day for our large family. They can’t understand gardening and home canning either.
ONE kid had asthma and had an inhaler.
Some thoughts about the black sea drone.
The RF already have electronic devices, it is claimed, to disrupt the small drones used for battlefield spotting.
Why would they not have similar, maybe stronger, devices fitted in their fighter planes, or at least be considering the idea.
The reported dumping fuel on and breaking the propeller of the drone is more reminiscent of early WW1 sorties when the pilots shot at each other with revolvers, am not sure if it’s believable.
Also with all the sophisticated electronics on a modern fighter I find it difficult to believe they don’t have something as simple as a camera to record the whole trip.
As the weapons are slung under the wings a picture would prove whether the drone was armed or not.
Crimea and its bridge is a sensitive area, not just for logistics, but a strike there would enrage the RF and provide big propaganda for the globo’s. It’s the sort of provocative stupid thing natø idiots would try.
Sounds like you were watching over somebody’s shoulder. Good speculation.
Nice insights and possibilities. I dunno.
My guess:
Just seen this now, if it’s real, no weapons apparently but big thing slung under its belly assume that’s the fancy camera.
Hmmm how deep is the black sea.
https://t.me/intelslava/45849
The deepest point is 7250 feet but the average is 300-500 feet.
IIRC. Nordstream depth where pipelines were blown ~20′. As posted yesterday, only a few “State Actors” could pull that off. Likely only one, had the (misguided) motivation..
Correction. ~250′. ^^^
That’s pretty deep, sounds like a job for the pipeline terrorist divers.
There is actually a military acronym for it:
UDT
(Underwater Demolition Technician)
They are part of the U.S. Navy SEALs
(Don’t quote me, but I think EVERY SEAL is QUALIFIED in Underwater Demolition, but NOT every UDT is a Qualified SEAL.
(maybe kalbo knows ?)
Quick Internet search shows:
All Navy SEALs must attend and graduate from their rating’s 24-week “A” School known as Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) school, a basic parachutist course and then the 26-week SEAL Qualification Training program.
Thanks kalbo !
😉
Cameras and sensors. General MQ-9 information below.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Atomics_MQ-9_Reaper
Russia has already grabbed the drone, according to anonymous tweeters. If true, it was done via submarine using deep divers.
Yea. Read somewhere, Russia recovered the drone.
My guess is the drone was on a predictable schedule. USAF, NOT very bright. Dumbasses.
Black Sea has plenty of Russian Navy. Russia may very well have planned to take this drone down. Perhaps shallower water. Easier to recover.
Wondering here.
Maybe it’s positively buoyant when you dump enough aviation fuel on it.
Or low on fuel. Wonder if MQ-9 internal fuel is in fuel tank(s) or fuel bladder(s).
The video somewhere in this daily, shows the MQ-9 with what appears to be an external fuel tank (extended range ops). Assuming it survived water landing, could add to buoyancy.
Dunno. Reminds me of the Nordstream precision.
I saw a report saying ‘no contact’ and that the drone ‘lost control’. I wonder if the RF pilot did a very close fly-by or two and caused enough turbulence to down the drone
Agree, absent electronic disruption, that is the most likely explanation. In the normal course of events it’s unlikely the drone would ever be dancing around, but if it was hit by sudden turbulence and or jet exhaust the operator may have lost control.
I think both sides, for their own different reasons, are being a bit less than honest about the facts.

“And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:”
Hebrews 10:24 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered!!!
BE MY VOICE
BABY LIVES MATTER
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
AMEN.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER

“Nowhere man”:
Lyrics
He’s a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Doesn’t have a point of view
Knows not where he’s going to
Isn’t he a bit like you and me?Nowhere man please listen
You don’t know what you’re missing
Nowhere man, the world is at your command
He’s as blind as he can be
Just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere man, can you see me at all
Nowhere man don’t worry
Take your time, don’t hurry
Leave it all ’til somebody else
Lends you a hand
Ah, la, la, la, la
Doesn’t have a point of view
Knows not where he’s going to
Isn’t he a bit like you and me?Nowhere man please listen
You don’t know what you’re missing
Nowhere man, The world is at your command
Ah, la, la, la, la
He’s a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

The Yellow Fever epidemic of 1878
No One Is In Control
What an 1878 outbreak can teach us about expertise
By M. Anthony Mills

https://www.commonwealmagazine.org/yellow-fever-coronavirus-covid-epidemics-experts-science
The Avian flu is being tossed around they have now engineered in a lab to attack mammals. Only time that it spread to humans. A F has no cure. This fellow on Tim Pool said I believe it was Thursday or Friday “that 10% of population would survive.”
I am not sure how true that is. I think if they let it loose will be when they got all their robots working normal jobs and AI is in full swing. Just my suspicion. We live in dangerous times .
COVID-19 Could Be Robbing People of Their Ability to Recognize Faces
HEALTH
15 March 2023
ByTESSA KOUMOUNDOUROS
https://www.sciencealert.com/covid-19-could-be-robbing-people-of-their-ability-to-recognize-faces
Annie (a pseudonym to protect her privacy) had normal facial recognition before she was diagnosed with COVID-19 in March 2020. A few days later she started to recover, only to relapse after several months. Now her case study suggests we can add ‘face blindness’ (prosopagnosia) to a long and growing list of brain problems caused by the disease.
The new study surveyed more than 50 other patients struggling with long COVID and most were finding it harder to identifying familiar faces, since their infections.
Persistent prosopagnosia following COVID-19
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0010945223000448?via%3Dihub
At some point, these studies and “researchers” MUST consider if persons in their study are jabbed, boosted, etc.
Until these factors are evaluated in the study, it is all “smoke screen” for CDC, Pfizer, Moderna…
I agree my granddaughter had the Johnson and Johnson jab the only one in the family to get that one. The jab affected her studies.
Thank you for bringing this.
Yours Truly is of the opinion that there are elements within the spike protein + its mRNA in the COVID-19 virus that induce onset of (or aggravation of): emotional/psychological psychoses; prion misfolding and the conditions that this causes (CJD, Parkinson’s Disease, MS etc.); stroke; dementia/Alzheimer’s Disease; and possibly other conditions.
The spike protein + its mRNA of the COVID-19 virus (Wuhan Hu1) are used as the basis for mRNA or DNA vector COVID-19 “vaccines” and “booster shots.”
IMO, it can then be posited that the brain damages potential is present in the COVID-19 “vaccines”, whether or not the person who takes them also gets a COVID-19 infection.
IMO, reducing / eliminating any lingering COVID-19 spike protein + its mRNA is very important to people who had and recovered from a COVID-19 infection, whether or not they are “vaccinated and boosted.”
First I’ve read of this. Interesting and gotta be terrifying for those effected.
Covid cited in the article. Wonder of this gal and others were Jabbed. Which Jab? Boosted?
From the article, “‘face blindness’ (prosopagnosia)”, difficulty navigating, artist needing to frequently refer to subject…

Logically, I would guess that study participants were required to be vaccinated in order to show up for the study. Given that the medical and science professions seemed to be in utter terror of being near anyone who was unvaccinated.
My granddaughter has an affect from the jab and it affecting her brain ability. She is brilliant and does not understand what has happen to her she developed some blind spots. She was tested now they say she has mild deficit syndrome she never had before the jab.
I wish I could help but my daughter the mother will not hear it.
Sad. Surely the college mandated the Jab.
Yes they did and I warned my daughter but University was more important at the time. No one wants to wait put on the breaks because they do not need a jab to go.
so sorry 🙁 could you share some of the health & immune-boosting vitamins & supplements info with them to help offset some of the jab injuries?
No cannot because I know nothing. Over educated daughter brilliant actually. She thought i knew everything until she got out of University and I think she was disappointed in me just a housewife 🙂
Heavy sigh. Hopefully some day she’ll catch a serious clue!!!
Give her a couple more years when reality hits 🙂
I hope you see it happen sooner than that for her own AND people she influences sakes!

Uh…wait a minute.

New Version of ChatGPT Will Have Fewer “Hallucinations”, Says Creators
15 March 2023
ByAFP
https://www.sciencealert.com/new-version-of-chatgpt-will-have-fewer-hallucinations-says-creators
The company behind the ChatGPT app that churns out essays, poems or computing code on command released Tuesday a long-awaited update of its artificial intelligence (AI) technology that it said would be safer and more accurate than its predecessor.
GPT-4 has been widely awaited ever since ChatGPT burst onto the scene in late November, wowing users with its capabilities that were based on an older version of OpenAI’s technology, known as a large language model.
. . .
“The power of the algorithm will increase, but it’s not a second revolution,” said Robert Vesoul, CEO of Illuin Technology, a French AI start-up.
Vesoul questioned the safety measures taken by OpenAI, which has already been hit by criticism from billionaire Elon Musk that the company is overly curbing speech on its AI in order to avoid more embarrassing responses.
“I am not sure if I want an AI to block responses on unknown topics… Should an AI decide if I smoke or not?” Vesoul told AFP.
Fake Intelligence is built on so-called “expert systems” which is essentially a tree or database of pre-programmed information.
Think of a call center, where they have a training guide for employees with answers to the most common questions and elaborations when more information is requested. Essentially the training document, if it’s well done, has a good structure outline (seen in the Table of Contents) and a searchable index. Ideally, in a well run call center they can take any employee hire, assuming they are basically competent, train them on the information, and they can start taking calls.
In fact, this is a common use of Fake Intelligence expert systems, to replace call center staffing, and make callers talk to a machine . . .
The problem comes in with who controls the information in the call guide.
Let’s face it: Controlling the expert system is more often than not driven by politics rather than truthfulness. It’s driven by a need for power – not a desire to help others but to manipulate them.
Have you watched CNBC lately? I don’t watch TV but they do have CNBC on constantly at work. Cramer was doing his screaming monkey routine a couple weeks ago telling everyone that SVB was a great investment! He did the same thing in 2008 right before Lehman Brothers.
We could just say Cramer is an entertainer (he is) or that he is incompetent (assuredly yes) but why does CNBC keep this guy on the air when he gets so much wrong?
If I had my way, all CNBC would prosecuted by the SEC for market manipulation.
CNBC is an example of an expert system programmed with wrong information and designed to manipulation people.
Because they don’t see human persons as having dignity, but as being instrumental. This is a fundamental assumption of the political left – people don’t exist as a good in their own right, but are only tools to be manipulated for one’s personal ends. Classic Fabianism.
Fake Intelligence for computers or Fake News for cable television is all coming from the same sewer of corrupted knowledge: Systems of information designed to control others.
“We could just say Cramer is an entertainer (he is) or that he is incompetent (assuredly yes) but why does CNBC keep this guy on the air when he gets so much wrong?
I would speculate that the reasons may be any or some combination of the following:
Or it could be something else that has no rational basis.
Summary.
All the above and maybe more? Taller Half and I know Norm Faber…and his son, David Faber, CNBC.
Same.
The father was atrocious.
This is David.
Excellent insights!!! TY
From Connor Boyack – “Tuttle Twins”:
First SVB, then Signature Bank… the past few days have seen a lot of turmoil in the banking industry.
So, I present to you… the comprehensive list of all banks deserving a bailout:
“There’s been a loss of financial discipline with the government bailing out depositors in full,” investor Ken Griffin said on Monday. He noted that these bailouts are an attack on the capitalist economy, which he said was “breaking down before our eyes.”
He’s not wrong. Bankers and politicians are once again crying out for more intervention, more easy money, more kicking the can down the road.
And all of the problems stem from the Creature from Jekyll Island — the Federal Reserve that manipulates the interest rate and prints up funny money like there’s no tomorrow.
I believe the solutions are simple: people who made bad decisions should have to suffer the consequences, rather than making the rest of us pay for their mistakes.
It’s not rocket science. That’s a principle so simple that most kids can understand it.
And there are a ton of kids who do understand it, because it’s a theme throughout our Tuttle Twins books.
It’s times like these that our mission becomes more focused — because we know that these principles need to be taught better in homes and schools throughout the country.
So we’re doing our part by launching a massive discount today on a big bundle of educational content so your family — and your friends and neighbors — can focus on learning sound principles in a world filled with confusion.
More bailouts, more spending, more inflation. What can we do about it?

Markets Price In Central Bank Panic As Credit Suisse Risk Soars
Update (0800ET): Aside from global derisking, anxiety over Credit Suisse has sparked a huge dovish response in Fed expectations with the odds of a 50bps hike next week at The ECB tumbling…
snip … “As we detailed earlier, Credit Suisse Group AG’s shares reached their lowest point ever, dropping by as much as 10%. This is the eighth consecutive session of decline, which comes in the wake of restructuring issues, delays in submitting its annual report due to ‘material weakness’ flagged by the SEC last week, and a broader industry selloff following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank. In addition to these challenges, the troubled Swiss bank now faces a new problem: its top shareholder has said they will not invest any further due to the sharp decline in valuations.
“The answer is absolutely not, for many reasons outside the simplest reason, which is regulatory and statutory,” Saudi National Bank Chairman Ammar Al Khudairy told Bloomberg TV in an interview on Wednesday.
That was in response to a question about whether Credit Suisse would receive fresh injections if another liquidity crisis emerged.
Saudi National Bank, which is 37% owned by the kingdom’s sovereign wealth fund, is Credit Suisse’s largest shareholder as of late 2022 after acquiring a 9.9% stake. Al Khudairy said there are no plans at the moment to take the stake over the 10% threshold because of regulatory hurdles. In the last several months, since the bank’s equity has been on a waterfall lower, the Saudis have lost more than 500 million francs on their position.
The news the Saudis are perhaps done supporting the troubled Swiss bank sent shares down as much as 25% to a new record low in Zurich.

Betting All on Hegemony; Risking All, To Stave Off Ruin
The West is too dysfunctional and weak now to fight on all fronts. Yet there can be no retreat without some de-legitimising humiliation of the West.
Just occasionally, a window is opened onto the truth of how the ‘system’ works. Momentarily, it stands naked in its degeneracy. We avert our eyes, yet, it is a revelation (though it shouldn’t be). For, we see clearly how tawdry has been the attire which clothed it. ‘Liberalism’s’ seeming success – almost wholly an ephemeral PR production – serves only to make its underlying internal contradictions more obvious; more ‘in your face’ – much less credible.
This unravelling speaks to a failure to satisfactorily resolve liberal modernity’s inherent contradictions. Or, rather its unravelling derives from the choice to resolve a waning legitimacy, through an ever more totalistic and ideological reaching for hegemony.
One such window has been the sordid affair of the UK pandemic lockdowns – as revealed by a paper trail leak of 100,000 ministerial WhatsApp messages, managing the lockdown project.
What did they show (in the words here of pro-government leading political commentators)? An ugly picture of how a western Establishment interacts in adolescent sniping at each other, and in its utter disdain for the populace.
Janet Daley writing in The Telegraph:
“It [lockdown] wasn’t about science, it was about politics. That was obvious as soon as the government began talking about following The Science – as if it were a fixed body of revealed truth … they were engaged in a deliberately misleading campaign of public coercion. The programme was designed to frighten – not inform – and to make doubt or scepticism appear morally irresponsible – which is precisely the opposite of what science does”.

Claremont Institute Reveals Database to Track Corporate Funding of Black Lives Matter
By Eric Lendrum
March 15, 2023
https://amgreatness.com/2023/03/15/claremont-institute-reveals-database-to-track-corporate-funding-of-black-lives-matter/
On Tuesday, the Claremont Institute unveiled a new database for the sole purpose of tracking corporate donations to the far-left black nationalist group Black Lives Matter, as well as donations to similar organizations.
As reported by Just The News, Claremont’s Center for the American Way of Life announced that its new “online dashboard” would “track corporate contributions and pledges to the BLM movement and related causes.” Users can search the database by inputting such search criteria as donor, donor location, and recipient.
“BLM and its manifold extensions engineered one of the most successful grifts in American history, to the tune of $82.9 billion,” the group revealed.
The athletic gear company Adidas topped the list, with donations of $120 million to various far-left groups that prioritize the interests of African-Americans and Hispanics. Another donor is 343 Industries, the video game company behind the iconic Halo franchise, which gave $600,000 to the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund.
All totaled, the Center for the American Way of Life says it has identified over $80 billion in donations to Black Lives Matter and similarly radical groups.
Although American corporations have been left-leaning for many years, the entirety of corporate America almost unanimously began voicing its support for Black Lives Matter in mid-2020, shortly after an African-American named George Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose while in police custody in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Falsely believing he was murdered by the police officers who arrested him, black nationalist and anarcho-Communist rioters began burning down cities across the country, with many corporations signaling their support for the rioters. Many companies announced initiatives to artificially boost the racial diversity of their workforces and executive boards in response, in addition to donations to BLM and its allied groups.
I forgot all about that envelope!
.
Too many things to remember.

^^^ Truth.
You killed it today, DePat. So many nuggets. I will focus this post on just one.
Ed Dowd has it correct in a lot of it IMO. I just don’t believe his projected end game is in the cards. What we should do near term in response is reasonably good advice.
As I told folks on here a year ago – the recession had already started with stocks peaking and other factors. Simple concept and principle to remember – you can never borrow your way out of debt. Which is what the feds attempted to do even before QE, which started back in 2008 forward. The Ponzi scheme can only go so long until much of the world sees it, backs away, and wants their pound of flesh. Which started in 2001 as an idea with BRICS that grew into the formal agreement and org it is today. It was a response to what our WEF idgits and sold out idiot politicians were doing.
I remember what Slick’s slimeball, Dick Morris, on FOX said a number of years ago as he attempted to rebrand himself. He tried countering Cavuto’s claim that we had too much deficit spending. Morris was happily declaring we could finance it all using Other People’s Money (OPM), as if we had suckered or otherwise coerced them into it and would never need to pay it back.
You either pay it back, or your country will be decimated economically, through terrorism, militarily, culturally, whatever. Paybacks are hell. MAYBE LIKE WE SEE TODAY?!
Collapse the Fed Reserve and cancel all things 1913. Save the country and monetary system – and as a consequence – save the world.
PDT and inner circle supporters know all of this. That’s one of the many reasons why the idgits, idiots, and their sheeple hate him. Be on the right side of history.

Okay … Hannity is settin’ em up for Ms Lindsey to shoot down …
(Again, I had to go to Russia to get this bit of fake news being broadcast)
via https://t.me/VA_Nikonov/9267
“Sean Hannity, broadcaster: Senator, there was a lot of talk today about how the Russians shot down our drone. What should be our answer?
Lindsey Graham, US Senator: I think we need to hold them accountable. If you ever get close to another US object flying in international waters, your plane will be shot down. What would Ronald Reagan do? He would start shooting at Russian planes if they threatened us!”
————————————
Ms Lindsey has the ‘unmitigated gall’ (one of my late Mom’s fav expressions!) to accuse Russia of threatening US when it’s our drone headed toward Russian border with transformer off !
Ohh lookie what else we have from Russia … click link for video, text below
https://t.me/VA_Nikonov/9236
“Pentagon press secretary Patrick Ryder on what the MQ-9 was doing near the Russian borders and whether it was armed:
As for the tasks of the MQ-9, he was engaged in intelligence. This device has been flying over the Black Sea for some time now. This is an important international water route, so we regularly monitor this area. [Did this drone carry a weapon?] I won’t go into the specifics of this particular aircraft since you know the MQ-9 is capable of carrying a weapon.
Again, he was a spy.”
————————————-
want more?
Anatoly Antonov, Russian Ambassador to the United States:
Can you imagine that such an aircraft, a drone would suddenly appear near New York or San Francisco? Can you imagine what the reaction of the American media, the Pentagon will be in relation to such a drone? I want to emphasize that the Russian pilots acted very professionally. There was no contact, there was no use of any weapons by our fighters. I think this is a real provocation. This provoked us to some specific actions, after which one could blame Russia, the Russian military for some kind of unprofessionalism.
They all have their roles in the kabuki theater…and we are never surprised.
Thanks for bringing that
you’re welcome Molly …
I was just thinking the same thing. Haha Hannity is just reading the script his boss Eddy Munster and Ms Lindsey gave him. He plays the part well, carnival hawking for his next pay check, spit.
To me he looks scared. I saw a clip od Hannity the other day and was shocked since I did not see him for a long time.
Probably the effects of the jab taken hold of him. Accelerated aging, you can see it on others too.
