Economist and founder of ShadowStats.com, John Williams says the government’s “phony numbers” don’t show the public how bad things really are with the economy.  Williams prides himself in giving you the actual economic numbers without “accounting gimmicks” that make things look better than they actually are.  For example, the latest official government number on inflation shows 8.3%.  It’s officially a 40-year high.  It gets worse when you strip away all the “accounting gimmicks,” and you see the real number that is burdening real people in the real world.  John Williams explains, “My inflation number shows a 17.3% peak in June, and right now it is 16.5%.  That is at a 75-year high.   I think you will find people are having a more difficult time than they were having 40 years ago.” (more…)

Money manager and economist Peter Schiff says the markets think the Federal Reserve can win the fight on inflation by raising interest rates.  Look at the falling stock market, and many people are getting increasingly nervous that something is going to break.  Schiff explains, “The Fed is in the same predicament now, only worse, because it’s a much bigger bubble than the one we had in 2008 or 2018.  We have a lot more debt now, and the economy is less able to tolerate 5% interest rates than in 2008 and 2018.  Think about it.  If the Fed Funds Rate got to 5%, I’ll bet the 30-year mortgage rate would be 9%.  People can’t afford to pay 9%, especially when they are borrowing 95% of the value of the home.  So, it’s a massive mortgage. . . . This housing market was built for 3.5% mortgages, not 9% mortgages.  Look at the federal government.  We have a $31 trillion national debt.  If the Fed got up to 5% . . . .how is the government going to have to spend $1.5 trillion a year on interest payments on the national debt? . . . It’s impossible.  (more…)

It looks like consumers are going to have to pay more at the pump after Saudi Arabia announced a 2-million barrel per day cut in oil production.  The Russians asked the Saudi Royal Family for the cuts to stabilize prices and even make them go back up.  Why are the Saudis doing what Russia asks in oil production?  You might remember, in August of 2021, the Russians signed a military cooperation deal with the Kingdom, and that means they are allies.  The White House is furious because oil is going right back up just as the 2022 midterms have Democrats worried about losing the House and the Senate because of high inflation.  Oil prices backing off in the last few months was a bright spot, but not any longer because of the new supply cuts.

Three-time, best-selling book author Nomi Prins says the reason why there is so much uncertainty and chaos in the global economy comes down to one simple theme, and that is a couple of decades of central bank money printing has created the biggest Ponzi scheme the world has ever seen. Prins explains, “The Fed and other central banks have created basically this idea, and put it into practice, whenever there is real crisis, however they deem it, they are going to print money, and a lot of money. . . and pushing this envelope forward on the back of a very artificial fabrication of money. That is the Ponzi scheme here. (more…)

President Trump is openly warning about the possibility of nuclear war with Russia over Ukraine.  Trump has offered to negotiate a peace deal, but no one is taking him up on his offer.  Instead, the U.S. Congress has approved a fresh $12 billion to keep it all going.  There are zero peace talks going on now, and Biden and NATO do not want them.  They want war, and it’s only a matter of time with the latest blowing up of the Nord Stream Pipelines that carry natural gas  from Russia to Germany.

Wall Street money manager Ed Dowd made billions of dollars in part by being a skillful number cruncher.  When he applied his skills to the vax, he saw massive fraud, death and economy killing disability everywhere he looked.  Add the vax genocide to the popping debt bubble, and a nightmarish perfect storm is clearly taking shape.  Dowd explains, “It’s my thesis that the vaccines are not only deadly but cause massive amounts of disability.  We had 220 million people in this country take the jab.  Globally, it’s even worse because some countries had higher vaccination rates.  What we are seeing now, 91 or 92 weeks since the vaccination program started, is rising disability.  (more…)

Putin is making some serious moves to put Russia on a war footing in what is being called a “partial mobilization of national forces.”  Some reports say they are calling up 1 million people for a possible future war effort.  Maybe this is why many military aged Russians are trying to escape the country.  Meanwhile, a top Russian Security Council member is hinting that nuclear warfare is an option to defend recently annexed parts of Ukraine.  There are zero peace talks, and the only thing you are seeing is more money for war from the west.  It is now only a matter of when, not if, there is a nuclear exchange between Russia and NATO.   Lord, please help us.

Dr. Peter McCullough is a renowned cardiologist who fought the accepted government CV19 vax narrative from the beginning.  Dr. McCullough said, “The injections should have been halted in February of 2021.”  Instead, the government mandated the clot shots, and the CDC and FDA covered up the problems.  The FDA is still covering up massive deaths and injuries from the mRNA shots.  Dr. McCullough explains, “It’s the great gamble of the Covid19 vaccine program.  It was the gamble of a lifetime, if not a gamble of all-time.  (more…)

Renowned trends researcher and publisher of “The Trends Journal,” Gerald Celente, contends the world is going into a very dark period.  Celente explains, “We are facing the worst socioeconomic and geopolitical crisis in modern history.  The Covid war, this happened and that happened because of the pandemic.  There was no pandemic.  This happened because of politicians, little pieces of scum crap . . . one after another said close down your business, don’t go outside, don’t go to the beach, close down the swings and don’t let kids go and play.  You have a socioeconomic crisis, the likes of which are unprecedented, and the damage caused by the Covid war is incalculable.  (more…)

It’s clear to me that the Deep State Democrat Party has zero to offer voters.  Killing babies, taking your guns, offering unlimited war funding for Ukraine and driving you into poverty is not a vote-getting platform, but that is their platform.  This is why the Dem election plan appears to be:  lie, cheat, steal, intimidate (with the FBI and DOJ) and silence any opposition or critic.  Can it work?  No!  But the desperate Dems are trying it anyway because it’s all they’ve got.  Whether it’s raiding President Trump’s home or taking pillow man Mike Lindell’s phone while serving a search warrant at a fast food joint, that’s the plan in plain sight.” (more…)

Award-winning journalist Alex Newman, author of the popular books “Deep State” and “Crimes of the Educators,” says Deep State globalists are not happy with the progress of the “controlled demolition of all western societies.”  They want their so-called “Great Reset,” but people are waking up at such a fast pace their propaganda is not working.  Newman explains, “Censorship is the move that these Deep State people are making.  They want to silence all dissent, all criticism, except dissent and criticism that furthers their narrative that furthers inflaming the division and furthers the civil war narrative.  This is very, very dangerous.  As my friend, Patrick Wood, the founder of “Citizens for Free Speech,” says, when they are able to silence our free speech, that’s when the killing starts.  So, we should be very, very concerned about this.” (more…)

Biblical cycle timing expert, geopolitical and financial analyst Bo Polny has made many spot-on calls in the last few years on USAWatchdog.com.  Just a few include:  Polny predicted a 35% drop in the stop market in early February of 2020, and the next month it crashed 38%.  In late 2020, Polny predicted Roe v. Wade would be overturned, and in June of 2022, the Supreme Court did just that.  Now, Polny has a new prediction based on his Biblical cycle work.  Polny explains, “Everything I have been talking about is at crunch time.

You are not seeing this in the reporting, but Europe is imploding in every way possible.  The only thing that will stop this unfolding crash is to stop the Ukraine war–and stop it now.  There are no signs this is going to happen.  There are plenty of signs that Europe’s coming monstrous crash will drag the globe into the Greatest Depression in history.  Inflation is skyrocketing, and the European Central Bank is coming to the rescue by raising interest rates .75%!!!  Talk about throwing a drowning man a boat anchor, that’s what raising interest rates is.

Renowned geopolitical and financial cycle expert Charles Nenner says his analysis shows there is big trouble coming for the U.S. dollar.  The dollar’s reserve currency status is on its way to being a thing of the past.  Nenner explains, “The dollar is still up.  We have a target on the dollar of 113 (on the USDX).  It’s now around 110, but it’s not going to be surviving as the major currency.  People don’t trust what is going on in the United States. . . . We have seen this happen to other countries.  We saw this happen to the British.   They are going to go to another major currency.  The BRIC countries and China are preparing to have an anti-dollar.  (more…)
