Following on from the earlier Brick in the Wall communication (which of course we all watched mulled and eventually fully understood), this video starts by reviewing the Trump "inauguration".

"... they had to break that because there is no corporate and there is no spirit within the corporate..."

"... unfortunately the general public is not aware of the joke... "

Is nothing is as it appears?

I suspect so. The style of delivery is demanding of his viewers, but if we want the truth we need to work at it, as it has been forever obscured beneath multiple layers of fiction.

We are facing the deepest Challenge of the Assumptions! 

Still, one can begin to piece together certain

"May you live in interesting times"

Are the times interesting enough for you yet?

If not, then perhaps you haven't been paying attention.

Personally I would settle for a little less wind and rain and a bit more global warming, but what do I know?

"Trump intends to use his presidential right to declare a state of emergency (!) thereby providing the conditions to fast-track the plans and put them into action"

"We stand at the brink of what we call here the intelligent age, where artificial intelligence... will fundamentally transform economic systems, business models and personal lifestyles"

Given that much of what appears in the press can no longer be taken at face value, and every politician worthy of note (or not) seems to be working to a concealed agenda (or not), it's become more or less impossible to come to conclusions about what any one of them may be up to, let alone forecast how the whole may resolve to bring us our future.

Especially given the breakneck speed at which the new Trump administration is breaking ground and breaking politicians such as presidents and prime ministers alike. It was hard enough to keep up before 20th January. 

Let's just say that this is a time when we all need a certain amount of faith that the Universe has our best interests at heart.

"Trust and verify" as used to be the motto of UN disarmament inspectors...

This for what it may be worth is Ben's viewpoint that he feels able to release in public this week. Whether we agree with everything is up to us...

Has Trump overreached himself?

Does picking a fight with President Putin bring peace in the Ukraine any closer?

Does imposing tariffs on the BRICS solve the problem of the weakening US dollar?

Set against Trump's history of coming back from the brink, these moves look odd. Nevertheless, he isn't negotiating with the opposition here, he is more likely setting the mood music for the guidance of US opinion.

"Everything that Trump's doing is just completely contradictory"

So, perhaps he is just making a lot of noise that the BRICS know amounts to very little... but maybe elements within the US do not.

Or perhaps his primary target is China, whose current exports to the US are probably too large for them to lose on day one to tariffs, so they may need to reduce their prices temporarily whilst they seek alternative

Once more Martin Geddes shares his thoughts, this time on today's event, what it may portend, and how he feels at the end of a number of years reacting to the unfolding events, and the understandings that they have spawned.

That he has been brave enough and understanding enough to share much of that journey with us is in itself quite heroic - that he has left us with his work on the Q phenomenon and much else besides leaves us with a debt that we cannot repay, and that he had already forgiven.

We can only try to live up to our own destinies with similar fortitude and generosity.

Today is the Day.

Goodbye old world, Hello new world, same as the old world?

So we stand at the precipice, yet it's too early to tell for sure how things will develop.

Certainly the ceasefire in Gaza is a positive sign that demonstrates an unlikely level of leverage over an intransigent regime that has myopically and single-mindedly pursued its inglorious aims of expansion and domination ever since the now infamous Balfour Declaration appeared in the wake of the end of WW2. 

Yet the verdict of the American people in the 2024 election has broken a logjam.

Clearly something new is up, but what exactly that is will only be unveiled over time. The geopolitical world has many moving parts, some of which have been immobile and rusting for far too long to now spring swiftly and surely into action - the makers of WD40 should make a killing!

As a blast from the past, few come as stormy as David Icke.

And few come as pointedly difficult to disagree with.

Do watch for a cracking video clip, delivered without any sense of irony, that just has to be seen to be believed.

Of course the prime focus this week is on the fires in LA - the similarities with the fires in Maui at Lahaina being noted.

The difference of course is that the victims in Maui were not from the affluent classes, so maybe the motivations were more complex...

The start of the new year has gone badly for the EU, but can anybody really maintain that this was unforeseen?

The gas supplies from Russia to Germany and by extension to the EU via the Ukraine has been turned off. It doesn't matter whom you blame for this, what matters is that this has turned off the EU's ability to maintain its (ever declining) standard of living.

Energy is the lifeblood of industry, and Germany's seemingly unstoppable post war industrialisation has suddenly - well, truly not so suddenly - ground to a deathly silence of shuttered factories and closed shops.

To say that this could not have been foreseen is risible - the war in the Ukraine (with Germany's largest supplier of low-cost energy!) was not

This is from the usually terminally tedious group now known as Promethean Action (you remember Prometheus of course?), who for some unaccountable reason now produce a video (or two!) that is not only useful, but tolerable for viewing by normal people.

(There's also a pre-Christmas video that is useful viewing).

And if you are wondering quite where Team Trump is going to take us, this is as good a place as any to start, as it highlights Britain, featuring as well Greenland and Canada, maybe also Panama and even Mexico... the crumbling EU... usw.

So you think you know your Trump?

Are you sure? 

You may not be so certain after watching this...

This is a very hard-headed video that will almost certainly challenge anybody's understanding of world events of the past century or so. If you are not prepared for such a challenge, feel free to skip this one.

Bear in mind that many now believe that "everything we were told is a lie". You may or may not accept such a concept, but if you believe in the accepted version of history, the ending sequence of this video may not be for you.

For myself, I am prepared to accept any proposition that is supported by evidence and logic - this attitude does not preclude changing my mind about history, but does mean that I file away a great deal in the "too difficult to know" box, for possible re-evaluation should more information come to light.

It looks as though Biden really was a Chinese-controlled plant. Which would mean that the 2020 election was an act of war by the Chinese (and no doubt others).

Which in turn would mean that the transition of power from the 47th President Donald J. Trump to the US Military under Continuity of Government (COG) laws and regulations would be the entirely logical response of the United States Republic (whose Constitution the Military is sworn to uphold, rather than THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA INC corporate entity which is/was owned by the British Crown, City of London, and the Vatican, and was set up after the Civil War to administer the government of the Republic as subcontractors to the Republic. However, in practice the British Crown administered the USA as a colony, the prior legal governing institutions of the Republic having lapsed. In recent times it seems that these republican legal institutions have probably been restored as the American States Assemblies,

What difference will the indicated appointments of Elon and Vivek to the new shiny Department of Government Efficiency (now there's a oxymoron for you!) make to America, and by extension, to the world?

In short, will the DOGE be any more effective than the infamous Department of Administrative Affairs of "Yes Minister" fame? 

The inimitable, highly experienced, but just possibly terminally jaundiced-of-outlook Bill Bonner sets out his reasoning.

But as is always the case, we must critically examine the core assumptions (often also unstated) upon which his reasoning is based. It's always the lazy assumptions that catch us out when

With governments around the world in crisis, how will the clashes between countries / power blocks evolve?

The aspects to this are economic, and political/military. Now that money-printing nears exhaustion, what will transpire?

Will governments go to war to impose a command economy, feeding the war in place of the aspirations of their people? How that would turn out is best not tested, but may be inevitable.

The Middle East is pivotal, and showing no signs of settling down.

We are discussing America here, but that is neither to accept nor deny that the UK's Office of National Statistical is beyond reproach.

The Biden administration is rather a special case, since America never does things by halves, so if they are good they can be very good, but equally if they are bad they can be very bad indeed. Churchill is said to have opined that America always does the right thing in the end, but only after they have exhausted all possible alternatives...

Still, outright gerrymandering of the figures to make the economy look rosy does seem to be a step too far.
