A grand jury in New York has indicted former President Donald Trump, according to emerging reports. It is not clear yet what he was indicted for, but it feels like part of the script.

Former President Donald Trump is reportedly being indicted on 34 charges, according to a CNN analyst.

Trump responds:

“This is Political Persecution and Election Interference at the highest level in history. From the time I came down the golden escalator at Trump Tower, and even before I was sworn in as your President of the United States, the Radical Left Democrats – the enemy of the hard-working men and women of this Country – have been engaged in a Witch-Hunt to destroy the Make America Great Again movement. You remember it just like I do: Russia, Russia, Russia; the Mueller Hoax; Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine; Impeachment Hoax 1; Impeachment Hoax 2; the illegal and unconstitutional Mar-a-Lago raid; and now this.

The Democrats have lied, cheated and stolen in their obsession with trying to ‘Get Trump,’ but now they’ve done the unthinkable – indicting a completely innocent person in an act of blatant Election Interference. Never before in our Nation’s history has this been done. The Democrats have cheated countless times over the decades, including spying on my campaign, but weaponizing our justice system to punish a political opponent, who just so happens to be a President of the United States and by far the leading Republican candidate for President, has never happened before. Ever.”

Nashville shooter was having ‘private counseling sessions’ with school’s head pastor before massacre where she shot dead his nine-year-old daughter ‘because HE wasn’t on site.’ [UPDATE – I see the article has now been changed to walk back that assertion, kind of] If she was targeting him by killing his child, I want to know, how did she end up with that child, seemingly alone. Why wasn’t it a classroom full of children she found and shot? When you have young kids like that you are responsible for, you can’t let them roam. I got corralled into a pee wee martial arts thing run after school at a high school in a poorer area once, when I was like 19. A couple of the kids were hyper and wanted to get out of the wrestling room and explore the school. You got crazy about watching those kids, to make sure none popped out a door and slipped away when you turned your back to deal with others. Because they are like mice, going in all directions, and if you get lax, one will slip out a door and make a run for it. And if you have to chase that one down, you are not watching the others, and more will bolt out other doors. You would not let one just walk off alone to do something, because you are responsible, and if you send them off alone, and they get lost, decide to explore, or even get escorted away by a bad actor, that is on you. There could be an innocent explanation, or it could have been random chance, but it doesn’t feel right she only kills three kids, at least one alone, and she gets the one she was looking for, especially given all the 33’s. This feels like it was intelligence supported/controlled, and maybe more precise and scripted than it would appear.

Top executives at CBS News have banned staffers from using the word “transgender” when reporting on Nashville shooter.

Gun control activists storm Tennessee State Capitol in Nashville after ‘Trans Shaman’ led occupation of Kentucky legislature – as fears of a left-wing uprising loom ahead of Trans Day of Vengeance. They are desperate to change the subject from all the men in wigs and tutus with machineguns on social media threatening people, to guns. Only in this timeline could this be a normal Thursday.

The trannies launch a Tranny “insurrection” at the Tennessee statehouse. The kids you see here, don’t physically resemble the kids who I grew up with who were Cabal-kid-intelligence-informants, but I look at them, and there is a feeling about them, an aura, which immediately hits me like a freight truck, that those are the kids. They may know that everything is bullshit – the idea you work hard in school to get places in life, the idea everyone has privacy, the idea the government is limited by the Constitution, the idea the people you are dealing with are just like you, and you are both interacting volitionally – and that may give them an air of approaching everything as if it is bullshit, and not giving a fuck. Would you block those cops, and not give a fuck as they are arresting you? That is more than just “look at me” narcissism. That is an actor playing the role they were given.

In a shocking revelation during a Senate hearing, Senator Rand Paul revealed that a Moderna executive privately admitted to him that their COVID-19 vaccine led to an increase of myocarditis. “I also spoke with your president just last week and he readily acknowledged, in private, that yes there is an increased risk of myocarditis.

“Asteroid the size of 18 platypus to fly closer to Earth than Moon”
From the same article:
   •   Asteroid 2023 FR1 with an estimated diameter of as much as 73 meters, or over 24 great white pelicans measured wing to wing all standing next to one another
   •   Asteroid 2023 EK2 with an estimated diameter of as much as 140 meters, or over 79 Israeli men of average height laying down head to toe in a row
   •   Asteroid 2017 SE12 with an estimated diameter of as much as 25 meters, or around 21 English greyhounds lined up tail-to-snout
   •   Asteroid 2023 FQ4, with an estimated diameter of as much as 17 meters, or over 67 women’s US size 9 shoes lined up on a flat surface
   •   Asteroid 2016 GH1, with an estimated diameter of as much as 19 meters, or over eight aardvarks measured tail to snout
Bizarro shit to be sure, so there’s obviously (duh!) some comms going on here. One thing I’m noticing is that the various ‘measurement animals’ all seem to come from distinct parts of the world, as if the comms are referring to global operations that are going down simultaneously. I don’t know how much English greyhounds differ size-wise from your average greyhound, but it can’t be by much, and yet ‘english’ greyhounds are specified.
We seem to be building to some sort of crescendo. Everything about the Trump indictment seems theatrical, almost like we’re in a theatre watching some kind of movie. I remember hearing that somewhere before, but I can’t remember where. The whole initial walkback of the indictment last week and the release of the Stormy D letters seem designed to make the eventual indictment today seem as nakedly political as possible. This has to be by (someone’s) design. A lot of wheels seem to be in motion at the moment, and Easter is fast approaching. If you were to write a novel where an entirely fictional whitehat organisation takes down a global satanic cabal, for symbolic purposes you might choose Easter as the time to do it.

Yeah-right.

“I am altering the deal. Pray I do not alter it any further.”
— Darth Vader, “The Empire Strikes Back”

The territorial, state, and Federal governments have a 250-year history of unilaterally changing deals they decided they didn’t like any more. Ask any of the tribes they made treaties with, just to start.

Further, that contract makes Disney a recognized polity with its own laws. (again) I’m fairly sure there have been Federal rulings about that sort of thing; the Fed got really antsy about state boundaries after the Civil War. For all reasonable purposes, they just handed part of Florida off to another polity.

Heh. Might be the first truthfull thing Biden has said since he bragged about getting the Ukrainian prosecutor fired (to protect Hunter). Unfortunately, sexual abominations do indeed shape our nation’s soul. Or, more accurately, they disfigure our nation’s soul.

So Gary Gensler popped his head up yesterday talking about investigating SVB Bank but I did not see any mention that he had countless Secret Meetings at the SEC with his fellow Khazarian Mafia traveler Bankman-Fried.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/sec-s-gensler-seeks-2-4b-in-funding-to-chase-down-crypto-misconduct

Moving on from that I have never seen mention of the true status of the SVB Bank mentioned.

SVB is the bank of inQtel, aka the SV bank of the CIA. It appears that it took over as the money laundering sources, etc., for the DEEP STATE after BCCI Collapsed back in 1990 then SVB took over. Deep State Cannot operate without funds.

You will see in the links below with some of that information. Seeing that SVB was the bank for all of the Tech Startups that were/ARE basically those companies that we are finding out have been censoring us all. 

So how did Israel Banks know to remove all of their assets from SVB one day before it crashed over to Israel?? Yes, how did they know? 

SVB has been receiving basically Zero interest loans from the Federal Reserve for years now. 97% of the money they held was held in accounts larger than FDIC insured $250.000 limit. 

Many of those other accounts are Tech Startups that have NEVER EARNED ANY PROFITS AS THEY WERE SETUP as possible useful companies to the Deep State. They cared not if they failed only that they provided SOME Beneficial Results for the Deep State.  

It is like a “Bust Out” used by the Mafia. Once they get into the ownership of a business they run up all of the bills then bankrupt the company. The taxpayers are on the hook just like they are on these banks. 

There is NO WAY that those who have been or are presently in “The Uniparty” Gang of 8 that do not know what I am saying. THEY WILL NOT SAY IT THOUGH. 

It is coming totally unglued now so the end game is near.

Hate to say this but depends as always on who wins. Luke Gromen is a very smart guy and argues there are top level ppl who have realized reserve currency status is a net loser for US. And are working to extract us from that.

If they win, then USD prob strengthens for complicated reasons short/med term. And the global economy begins growing again.

There are also, he argues, ppl at the top level who would rather burn it all down than lose reserve currency and “full spectrum dominance”. Finally acheiving true full spectrum dominance for a v short time over a broken world.

Addendum to my other post:

CHN has to be able to purchase enough oil in CNY (yuan) to offset the destructive balance of pymnts ratio they have re:US. If not, they collapse.

CHN doesn’t need to end USD reserve status. And doesn’t really want to. They just need to price enough in CNY to make the ratio work.

US knows this about CHN and oil. US can choose to allow CHN to do this or try and stop them. Hence Xi’s war footing of CHN. Because CHN is trying: new deals.

If US wins, CHN collapses, world collapses but US king of the hill totally for a bit.

If US gets aggro, CHN and RUS will try and drive phys gold up to a level they can price oil in gold and run gold backed currency. Total war.

The Fed has recently said they are ok with a world where there are multiple “reserve” currencies.

But some in top lvls of US are completely mad obv.

I think the crazies get btfo’d and CHN gets to survive. If so, med/short term USD should strengthen.

Once the dollar is no longer used as the world’s reserve currency, people outside the US will have no further impetus to acquire any. The dollars existing outside of the US will then be repatriated to the US. This will cause a hyperinflation of unimaginable proportion.

So yeah, the US is truly fucked, especially given that the US no longer makes anything required by the rest of the world, and hence no desire on the part of other countries to acquire USD.

“Contrary to the widely cited figure that 65 percent of U.S. currency is abroad, we now find that direct evidence supports the notion that overseas holdings amount to less than 25 percent.”
If the dollars are repatriated in a relative short time frame then I can see how that can cause severe inflation. But could also imagine it being a more gradual process.

Guys, I hate to say it, but all this gloomy shit is just… wrong. Smart guys and (((special people))) and the macho-man tough guys at ZeroHedge have been crowing about ‘the dollar is going down!’ since (at least) 1965. ALL of those clowns have been wrongwrongWRONG this whole time, and they’ll keep on being wrong, because there is no answer to the obvious question:”Oh, yeah? To be replaced with what?” Yet this never seems to keep them from making their doomy predictions, does it.

And just as it’s been since 1965, when they quit making coins out of silver, which all smart folks just KNEW was an unmistakable sign the USA would be destroyed by 1984, well-meaning people have bought in to this nonsense, because… well, I don’t know why. There seems to be an apocalyptic strain running through the American national character.

All of these stories are grotesque lies & utter bullshit, and they’re being published for the exact same reason all those ‘COVID might kill us all!’ stories were: to scare you and make you easier to control.

Well, let’s see… exactly how important are Brazil, Russia, India, and South Africa to you in your day-to-day economic life? 1%? .01%?

Saudi ain’t “nothing”, but… since the shale revolution kicked in, despite the fucking commies best efforts, we don’t need Saudi oil anymore. With oil out of the picture, how important is Saudi to you? .0000000001%?

china carries _a little_ more oomph, but a) I believe a biiig portion of china’s economy rides on USA yankees buying all their shit, and then buying EVEN MORE!!!! That works until it doesn’t: I know a lot of people who have had enough of china’s shit and won’t buy any more high-dollar made in china crap. They’ll buy chinese flyswatters, but that’s about it. if this means not replacing their 2-year-old bigscreen TV or their 2-year-old patio set or their year-old smartphone, well…. that’s not exactly a sacrifice is it.
b) The financial web is full of stories about big corporations bailing on china. “So long, Wing Fu! We’ve finally had enough of your shit! You can keep the factory!” Look around some: YT has **lots** of ‘unauthorized made in china video’ showing street after street of boarded-up factories, deserted & eerily quiet & empty container ports, and desperate people sleeping on the streets. REAL desperate people – not the SF street assholes.
{for me, probably the worst is the ‘we hav job for you!’ hawkers. AFAIK, china has no official minimum wage, but big cities are big cities, and they ain’t cheap wherever you are. A decent guess as to a chinese big city min wage would be about $4 an hour. $4 in bullshit chinese currency is about 26 yuan. OK? There are vids out there showing – if it’s being translated correctly, which is tricky because everyone in china always lies – “factory HR” (LOL) hawkers hollering “job for you! times are hard, hav low pay, but job!! pay 6 yuan per hour!” *That’s about 92 cents an hour.* In a gigantic city with sky-high rents.}{Never let anyone tell you the chinese are decent folks – just watch how eagerly they fuck over their fellow chinese each and every chance they get}

Oh and BTW, china has to import pretty much EVERY. SINGLE. FUCKING. THING. it needs to function as a semi-modern economy. Where I come from, that is… not a good position to be in. It’s the opposite of a ‘Power’ stance. (“But wait!” I hear you say. “china is the world’s largest steel exporter!” And that’s true. But see, china is ALSO the world’s largest steel IMporter. Wait, what? Why?? Simple: china can make cheap crapola steel. That’s what they export. china CAN’T make top-quality high-end steel. (think about that. why can’t they?) So that’s why they import. No imports, no decent steel anywhere in china} Nor are they as super-smart & sly as they like to pretend they are. The feelgood story of the era is that china wasn’t capable of manufacturing chinese-made BALLPOINT PENS until 2017 {among other things, they couldn’t get the steel right}. So! How much can a country that just mastered ballpoint pens, with an “economy” where people are making 92 cents an hour affect you in your USA day-to-day life?? Answer: as much as you allow it to. If you choose to refuse to do business with them, it won’t affect you much at all. So why would you give a flying shit what currency they use for trade? Do you care about Uzbekistan’s choice of currency? Or Rwanda’s? Or Cambodia’s? No, of course you don’t. Why would you? Why would ANYONE?

The currency scare stories are exactly like the ‘COVID gon kill us all’ stories of a few years ago: giant steaming loads of bullshit designed to scare you, and make you easier to control. Next up: “This is why we need to go to Government-issued Digital Currency! So those awful chinese and Brazilians can’t hurt us any more!!!”

The dollar NOT being used as a reserve currency is not a total bust. It could cause inflation for a while. There’s something the panic stricken have not really taken account of. Everyone else’s currency is if not in the same bad shape as ours, probably the majority are worse. Means that the dollar will not lose all value. Second it means that since the dollar is not being propped up our trading figures will be much better. People have been artificially boosting the dollar for a LONG time. People say we don’t make anything, and that’s not true. We are much diminished, but we still make a lot of stuff, and if the dollar loses value we will be making a lot more.

It’s convenient for him as it allows lattitude to incur economic hardship due to domestic reforms and global slowdown and de-coupling from USD.

We’re in another 1971 moment in re the monetary system.

Board transferred all its power to Disney shortly before DeSantis’ appointees took over. DeSantis BTFO’d by the Devil Mouse. Or his move against them was just for show.

It’s not going to hold up. First thing I saw in articles was the first thing that I thought as well: “lack of consideration.” For a contract to be a contract, both parties have to actually get an actual something. Both sides have to get “valuable consideration”. It can be intangible, but it has to be actual value. It’s why you see a lot of “$1 contacts” where one side gets a dollar, because a dollar legally has value. Reedy got nothing from Disney in return for handing Disney everything. A contract without consideration is invalid, and this won’t have to got to the SCOTUS to get thrown out.

It’s also void because we have no king.
That’s why the clause betrays their belief that the Empire still owns us.

It is, but it’s irrelevant. The contract is still defective for lack of consideration and a lot of other things. You see people sell the rights to a song “for all eternity in the entire universe and in all media existing and yet to be invented” but if some other part of the contract is screwed up, it’s still invalid.

Let’s not forget that George Soros is the Front Man for all of this! Has the ADL ever called Soros out?
Funny because HIS cover story has been that he ratted out other Jews to the Nazi’s when he was younger.
This concerns the Judge who has just been PLACED IN CHARGE of the Trial of Donald Trump, the presiding judge, Juan M. Merchan
The youngest of six and the first in his family to go to college, he began working at the age of 9, carrying groceries for tips, and then held jobs through high school that included washing dishes at a diner and  delivering KOSHER MEAT. In college, he worked as a night manager at a hotel.
The judge earned a business degree from BARUCH COLLEGE.
His father was a military officer who later served in the country’s INTELLIGENCE SERVICE.

“Asteroid the size of 18 platypus to fly closer to Earth than Moon”

A running joke throughout the article seems to be pointing us to the Disney animated series “Phineas and Ferb” (executive producer: Jeff “Swampy” Marsh) in which the family pet platypus (Perry the Platypus) is actually a secret agent for an all animal spy organization known as O.W.C.A (Organization Without a Cool Acronym) and reports to his superior, Major Monogram.

O.W.C.A. is battling the arch villain Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, who is not a real doctor but purchased the degree online, and whose motivation to take over the “tri-state” area is in part a result of his parents abuse and neglect, most notably forcing him to dress as a girl. Perry’s owners have no idea this secret war is being raged under their noses.

I am not familiar with the series, the above is collated from a quick hit on wikipedia. But sounds…perhaps more than just a children’s cartoon.

An interesting twist is that the character arc of the villan “Dr. Heinz” is one towards redemption, the objective being to change him from his evil ways and cultivate the goodness within him.

Its a fun series, and if platypuses are comms I don’t think they have anything to do with the series.

Its really about children living in a secret fantasy world that the adults in their lives can’t understand.

Phineas and Ferb are children, but are also genius scientists who spend their summer vacation building ridiculously high tech and dangerous inventions with the help of the other children in the neighborhood. The running joke is that their mother is completely oblivious to both this, and the secret agent war being fought around her.

The first thing I thought when I saw this in the news, is that they were probably killed by our own government for some reason. It could be that they took out all of them, just to get one targeted person who was on board.

Disneyland shenanigans will only hold up if DeSantis wants them to. This is a sovereignty issue. DeSantis could force the issue and the groups backing Disney would walk away. Law and public opinion are on the State of Florida’s side. If Disney gets away with this then DeSantis will have this pointed out by every oppenent for the rest of his political career.

Texas judge strikes down free HIV drugs, cancer screenings under Obamacare. Basically limits the government’s ability to mandate those things. “O’Connor… ruled that the requirement to cover the HIV prevention drug PrEP violated the religious rights of the employers and could not be enforced against them.”

“Texas judge strikes down free HIV drugs…”

I see this as a bad thing. Who gave the power to this judge to decide what drugs, procedures, etc. that the legislature says are necessary, are, necessary? As I see it this is just a huge power grab like all the other power grabs by judges. Like the one where they invalidated the whole entire structure of political power in the whole entire country by outlawing “regional based” Senators in States.

And you don’t have to be for or against any particular piece of legislation to also be against judges unilaterally deciding what the legislature can do.

What do you do when the next judge, using this ruling, says that “whatever” behavior is wrong because it violates someone else’s rights? Like, say, not allowing trans athletes. Whoops can’t do that now because it violates their rights.

I say be careful of approving of power grabs by anyone. You may think your side has won a victory but the next power grab might not go so well for you.

I’m not saying the judge has bad intentions, only that he sees his power as far above that which is granted to him. This is especially dangerous as they are given this power for life. We can take bad legislative decisions and correct them by throwing them out, but it’s more difficult to correct bad judicial decisions that take power they are not entrusted with.

“We should’ve cucked harder”

You think the idea of not allowing too much power to be concentrated is “cucking”. You are an imbecile who doesn’t understand…words or you are a deception agent feeding dysfunction(likely).

Let’s also pay attention to his dishonest corrupt “attempt” to link me to “Dubya Bush era”. Where did I say anything about Bush? Nowhere. You just made that up.

I want to draw attention to this because his short stupid comment, basically, “you are evil and these people I name are aligned with you, and you are aligned with them”, is nothing but a typical Jew trick. I think it’s in their little twisted Jews meme mind fuck playbook. So from now on, know that Fart Simpson at the very least attempts to use Jewish mind control techniques on you to feed you lies and lead you astray.

Likely, he’s just another Jew agent sent to make us think stupid stuff. Like in this case, I say, “God forbid we should not let officials have too much power”, he says, “no, we should have some sort of dictator that will set everything right”. That’s what he is saying. I might ASK the Jew provocateur, where would we get such a dictator? I’m sure the Jew will provide us with one and it will all work out just fine…snicker…vomits.

This is why we need to get rid of all the Jews. Peacefully if we can get it, but by any means they need to go. You can not have a large amount of people, with a large amount of power in your country who in most every action they are thinking how to destroy you. Feeding you constant lies and bullshit. Think what fuck wits they are to spend their whole lives trying to fuck everything up. Think of the effort involved. Their whole lives are nothing but evil stupid meaningless bullshit. It’s seriously mentally ill.

To all those that say, “well I know this nice Jew…blah, blah, blah”, I say to get rid of this plague I would sacrifice the whole lot of them even the good ones because the “supposedly” good Jews know. They know what is going on and do fuck all to stop it. There’s maybe three or four Jews that “out” the Jew’s behavior and as we have seen even those feed us lies and bullshit too. Unz is a good example. Solid on most things but a total liar and deception agent when it comes to the likelihood that Jews did covid and on the subject of mass immigration he goes to great lengths, including serious statistical deception, to cover up the bad aspects of South American immigration. So in fact you can’t trust any of them. If in a population of millions you only have say…10 or 20 “slightly” honest characters, then, it doesn’t pay to keep a single one.

If you had huge barrels of apples and out of many thousands only one was good. The ones that were not good tasted like shit and the shit flavor lingered in your mouth for weeks. And the only way you could tell if they were good was to eat them, would you go through all of them tasting shit in your mouth for months? No, you would throw those shitty apples in the trash where they belong. And the Jews are a huge barrel of shitty apples.

Marbury vs Madison has turned out to be too broad. Mostly because Congress has not reined in the courts. They have the power to do so but as far as I can tell they pretend to not have it and every time courts make some screwed up unconstitutional ruling they throw their hands up like there’s nothing they can do. I suspect they do not want the “responsibility” to determine these things. Combine that with the powers that be that want control and you have a big mess.

You are the one who doesn’t get it.

Roberts and SCOTUS already declared O’Bummercare Constitutional so a lower judge can’t say otherwise without risking being overturned and possibly sanctioned, especially not if the question of the Constitutionality of the entire law is not raised in the case.
But every little bit we get rid of is a victory and may get us closer to getting the entire thing thrown out in a later case.

“…In all the other cases before mentioned, the Supreme Court shall have appellate jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, with such exceptions, and under such regulations as the Congress shall make…”

And I say THE most important part.

“…with such exceptions, and under such regulations as the Congress shall make…”

The important part. The earlier part declares what powers they have but it ends with control of these functions by Congress. Congress could tell them to butt out of any stupid overbearing rulings. They could do that with lots of stuff they keep ramming down our throats. The courts could be stuck with only deciding water rights cases between States if they push too hard to twist the Constitution to death.

A large part of the decisions being made are overreaching by the courts. If Congress had some balls they could put a stop to this immediately.

It is probably gonna suck for us Americans once everyone transitions away from the dollar. Especially people who have saved a lot, although perhaps it would be good for people up to their eyeballs in debt since it would effectively be wiped out. I hate how this system punishes responsible behavior and rewards retardation, but its run by satanists so it is expected I guess. I imagine hyperinflation is very possible.
However, devaluing the satanists purchasing power is probably the least painful way overall of removing their ability to fuck us and so its a necessary pain we have to experience. Ya, your money becomes worthless and things get harder, but think of all the things they will now find harder to pull off. Surveillance has to be paid to do their job. If the money they get is worthless how many would stop? A lot I imagine. What about gov’t bureaucrats whose sole purpose is to harass and bully every day Americans? Same deal. What about the censoring social media companies getting CIA subsidies? Guess they will have to monetize or go bust. 24/7 mockingbird media spitting out lies and psy-ops? Can’t exist without cabal funny money.
It will probably be like a cancer operation. Ya, its gonna hurt. Probably really badly. But you need to get it out and will be a lot better afterward.

Hyperinflation is definitely coming to the West. It may pan out how you say, but consider cabal and state institutions (especially police) may get paid in food. Food may become the most valuable currency in the West over the next 10 years due to ever increasing shortages.
