War, Trump’s New $500 Note & Volcanos -Martin Armstrong
By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com
Five weeks ago, legendary financial and geopolitical cycle analyst Martin Armstrong warned his “Socrates” predictive computer program showed a “100% Chance of Nuclear War.” After that, Trump was able to get Putin to Alaska to start meaningful peace talks between Russia and Ukraine. The chance for war is still 100%, but now, that war may not involve America. Armstrong explains, “My sources in Ukraine are telling me the losses on the battlefield are approaching 1.8 million, 5 million fled to Russia, 8 million fled to the EU. . .. Ukraine is about ready to fall apart. . .. I spread this to Washington and that is President Zelensky was sending $50 million per month to UAE. So, Zelensky has been preparing to leave. There is no way this guy could possibly retire in Ukraine. They will kill him.”
Does this mean the war may be over? Zelensky and nearly all of Europe’s leaders came to Washington recently to meet with President Trump, but it really was not to talk peace. Armstrong says, “The fact that all those leaders came to Washington—uninvited, they all met with Zelensky before they went to meet with Trump. Why did they come? Because they need war. I have warned Washington.”
So, if Europe starts a wider war with Russia, will Trump stay out of it? Armstrong says, “Yes, Trump said no American troops from what I have been told. Trump refuses to send any American troops to Ukraine as peacekeepers—period.”
Reading between the lines, does this mean Trump is putting the EU on notice we are not going to Article 5 in if you start a war? Armstrong says, “Article 5 is voluntary. I have made this very clear to them in Washington. You don’t have to participate. . .. I can’t stop the war. The best I can do is reduce the amplitude. If I can keep America out of this war, that is our best outcome. . .. Europe knows it’s in trouble financially. They have $335 billion of Russian assets frozen. France has about $71 billion. . .. The rumor going around right now is if there is a peace deal and they have to release those frozen assets, France can’t because they have been dipping into them. Europe is a complete mess. When it comes down to handing back $335 billion in Russian assets, I am not sure Europe is prepared to do that.”
Armstrong says forget all the talk of the elite wanting to get rid of cash and replace it with digital currency. Armstrong says, “No, no, no. Why is Trump talking about a $500 note. . .. Trump would not even contemplate doing a $500 bill if he was going to cancel the currency. Everybody else is cancelling currency and putting in capital controls, and Trump is going in the opposite direction. . .. Gold is still projected to go much higher because it is anticipating war.”
One of the surprising things Armstrong brought up are new signals from “Socrates” on increasing volcanic activity all over the world. Hawaii’s Kilauea eruption happened for the 31st time since December on Friday. It spewed lava for 12 hours, and then there was the recent eruption in Northeast Russia that had a huge eruption after 600 years of lying dormant. Armstrong says, “We have every data base in there. Earthquakes, volcanos and temperatures back to 1869 from New York City. It does not show global warming. . .. The computer says we are heading to global cooling and not global warming. . .. The computer is showing from 2025 on, we are going to be seeing a lot more volcanic activity. I just got off the phone with someone from Italy, and they say the super volcano there is starting to become active.”
In closing, Armstrong says, “I still want to have one of those $500 notes.”

Good call to interview the forecaster 😉
It’s got to feel good to Martin that “Commy” is gonna get his turn in the crossbar hotel.
A CONVERSATION PIECE
A 2024 bill that would have printed a $500 bill with a portrait of Trump’s face on it. (A $500 note was last printed in 1945; it had been discontinued due to lack of use.) It did not move past the financial services committee.
Europe is a basket case. They are full of egotistic morons. If they go CBDC they are done! It’s over. On the other hand, Trump is going the opposite direction on purpose in my opinion.
I can’t wait for the global cooling, back in the 70s they were talking about the climate cooling.
Greg, please look up youtube channel “suspicious0bserver”, this scientist puts out daily videos about the Sun’s activity. What he says and what Armstrong says correlate.

I am traveling and just read the intro,,, but hopefully Trump avoids like the plague getting involved in Ukraine,,,we need to “ BACK OFF !!!” We are in no shape financially or militarily to involve ourselves,,,, China is in the shadow’s producing large quantities of missiles and armaments and stocking up and we need to be ready for the unexpected,,,,, We should down size all the 900 bases and focus on building mach 20-50 cruise missiles,,, skip the re- entry glide for now ( too complicated ) and focus on nuclear motor high mach missiles similar to the Russian SkyFall but faster and better ( just my opinion),,,,, If Europe wants to commit sausage let them,,,, ,,, I would try and acquire Greenland and make it 🇺🇸,,,, focus on that,,,,,, it is strategic in many many ways,,,,Acquiring Greenland is way more strategic than Golden Dome,,,
I really enjoy listening to what Martin Armstrong says. I wish there was some way to “like” the content; but when I hit the “like” button, I get a “broken disk” picture where the “thumbs up” was.
Martin A Armstrong just reaffirmed what I said about the Earth’s cycles. As I said numerous times, all the Earth’s internal activities are due to the reduction of Solar activities. Lower activity means more emanations from the Cosmos hit the Earth’s Core. The Core is a Mass Generator, when it does it create an increase of pressure that ruptures the Earth’ Crust.
Folks, this is Cyclical nothing new, nothing to fear, is the Universe doing its thing.
What is important is that Russia not be given a chunk of the Ukraine. Such a move would be a repeat of the “PEACE IN OUR TIME” sell out. Dealing with Russia is like dealing with the November 22, 1963-founded Communist Democrat RINO Party. One cannot negotiate with the devil. Remember when Reagan – a good man – took the word of the Democrats and permitted 10 million criminal illegals to remain in the United States. To allow any criminal illegal Laken Riley stalkers to remain in America constitutes discrimination.
MOST EXCELLENT SHOW !!!! LOVED IT. BEST EVER, GO MARTIN AND GREG !!!
Thanks Judy!
Greg
So, is Donald J Trump going to be the face on the $500 bill?
Can you imagine the vitriol spewing from every Leftist pie hole if that happens?
Priceless!!!!
A $500 note is bad in a few ways. #1 is counterfeiting. It’s bad enough if you get stuck with a phony $20. But a phony $500?! #2 is you’ll get people buying stuff for $1 and wanting $499 in change. Most places hate taking $100s because it wipes them out of smaller bills.
What they should do is put a new face value on the 1 oz. Silver Eagle, 1 oz. Gold Eagle and 1 oz. Gold Buffalo. $1 and $50 is too low. Bump them up to at least $20 for the Silver and $1,000 for the Gold. Not that anyone is going to spend them at face value but at least it acknowledges the upward trend.
No Cheri,
Cash and expanding cash is never bad.

President Trump needs to act quickly and dump all the low IQ neocon war mongers who surround him, bring back Col. Douglas MacGregor, and pay heed to the sound advice of Martin Armstrong and his Socrates Program.
I can remember when Monty Hall would hand out $1000 bills on Let’s Make a Deal. This would have been around 1969.

You cannot ultimately conquer a nation until you rot it from inside, pit group against group, eliminate worship {Ukraine}, erase memory of its history.
Only 30 years to go from total financial collapse, oligarchs and the West moving in and strip mining assets, landing on their feet to become a vibrant, self-sufficient country so pristine you could eat off the subway floors. That’s impressive.
It is a marvel that women and children can walk the streets at all hours. Larry Johnson noted that you do not see cruisers around the cities, no police presence on the streets. Reporter Sanchez said if you ask a Russian a question you get a frank answer without self-censoring. More freedom of speech than in the U.S.
The American Empire will be at war. It is the greatest empire in history due to its worldwide influence in finance, currency, wealth, culture and especially its vast military reach…. No other empire even comes close to American influence in every aspect of secular life….. and death.
WW3 won’t exclude the greatest empire in history. The King of the South will indeed fight. Count on it.
“As regards these two kings [of the North and South] their heart will be inclined to do what is bad, and they will sit at one table speaking lies to each other. But nothing will succeed, because the end is yet for the time appointed” Book of Daniel
Don’t be fooled by “peace talks” at the diplomatic table. Yes, there can be a pause before the big fight. But the fight is coming as surely as the sun rises.
Perhaps President Trump will keep the American Empire from war this year, and maybe the next, but a Great War is coming. We just simply don’t know the day or hour or the trigger. The only event that prevents WW3 (including The American Empire) is if Kingdom Come first.
Personally, I prefer Kingdom Come. It’s what Christians pray for every day. It’s what we need. It’s the only lasting solution. It wipes out the wicked and brings us lasting peace.
Personally, I also believe that Kingdom Come isn’t happening just yet. Big wars, famines, plagues, earthquakes and other Biblical signs must still come first.
Prepare accordingly.
Purge of humanity happened with Noah. Concept of DNA was not known to them but the breeding with Angels produced the Nephilim, corruption of human DNA. Might that be one of the non stated reasons God caused the flood and a purge of humanity?
Today with the mRNA jabs is also a corruption of our DNA. Might God want another purge?
When Israel sinned, God gave David 3 choices to cut back the numbers of Israel.
Today we are looking at possible WWIII which will be a big purge of us humans.
Weather manipulation and other HUMAN caused situations, maybe bio which can cause a big purge of us humans.
Or God will step in and do what (???) to correct (purge) the corruption of our DNA?
This is just my theory!
Martin Armstrong says: “The US Dollar is not going to fall apart or be canceled”!! But, this does not mean it will hold on to its purchasing power!! Look at what has already happened to the purchasing power of the US Dollar https://www.richdad.com/MediaLibrary/RichDad/Images/charts/usd-purchasing-power-1913-2008.png !!!
This is why Trump is now going to issue $500 dollar bills (because the $100 dollar bill will soon only buy you what $20 dollars once did, and the new $500 dollar bill will thus purchase what the old $100 dollar bill did)!! Indicating that the price of Gold will soon also be 5 times higher (and Silver 5 times higher means $200 dollars per ounce)!!
Katy,
Oil is selling in the mid $60 a barrel range. No real big inflation until those changes.
Greg
It’s game over.
Save,
The “game” is over when Jesus gets back.
Greg
Greg. Just wondering if anything big happened on Aug 18 that Martin was predicting in his last interview. Thanks
Jess,
That’s the day Trump got Putin to meet him Alaska to talk ending the Ukraine war. Huge turning point.
