Private Credit Problems Ending the Party – Ed Dowd
By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com
Wall Street money manager and financial analyst Ed Dowd of PhinanceTechnologies.com warned at the end of January that the “Credit Destruction Cycle” was showing up in something called private credit. Dowd was worried about extreme risk in the economy, especially with all the growth in lending in the last two years coming from private credit. Has this gotten better or worse? Dowd says, “It’s gotten worse, and it has spread. The number if credit funds that have gated their investors keeps growing. This is important because high net worth individuals, insurance companies and pension funds put millions of dollars in these private credit funds and now they want to redeem them, and there is a gate. The last two years of loan growth in the economy was from banks loaning to private credit. . .. There have been earth shaking events in private credit land. That started a cascading effect of people becoming worried about their private credit fund. Then, redemptions started, and some funds like Blue Owl have taken massive hits. They had to gate their fund. Apollo gated their fund. Black Rock gated their fund, and KKR has gated their fund. So, there is a lot of gating going on. Basically, this is the beginning of the credit cycle rolling over. This starts in the most egregious sector, which looks like private credit. . .. So, the credit market is starting to end the party, and we are going to see this cascade throughout the whole economy.”
The Iran war just turbocharges the entire negative global scenario. Dowd says, “You layer on top of this the Iran war and that only hastens the whole thing unless there is a quick resolution.”
Isn’t Iran getting creamed financially speaking? Dowd says, “Financially speaking, yes, but we have no way to know what’s going on or who they are negotiating with. It’s kind of an information black hole. There is propaganda from our side and their side. My hope is that this is resolved as quickly as possible without troops on the ground. If we got that, and the Strait of Hormuz is opened rather quickly, there would be a rally in our markets, but the forces bearing down on the economy are going to happen regardless. There will be a temporary relief rally, but what I am predicting is still going to roll through the system. If there is no quick resolution, then this will hasten everything because there will be global demand destruction. This will hasten a global recession that I see coming no matter what.”
Dowd put out a report forecasting what’s coming in 2026. Any way you cut it, not many will escape the pain, and there is a lot left to come in Dowd’s 2026 forecast. Dowd says, “I am in a very conservative mood. Our call from our economic report is risk assets are going to be under pressure. Cash is king in this scenario. . .. We think inflation is going to be coming down. Even though we call this an oil price shock, it’s not an inflation shock because demand destruction will eventually come. Inflation will go up in the near term, but inflation will roll over as everything else will roll over price wise, especially the housing part of the CPI. That is already under pressure. Rents have been coming down, and home prices always follow. It is now cheaper to rent a house than to own a house. Home prices are going to come down, and that will cause a recession in and of itself. You throw a bursting AI bubble on top of that and a Chinese economy that is going into the tank this year and you get a global recession. . .. Let me remind you, private credit already started to have its problems before the war even started with Iran, and private credit is the canary in the coal mine.”
Dowd is still forecasting gold to hit $10,000 per ounce in the next few years (2030) and is also still bullish on silver long term. Dowd goes into detail about the severe problems China is facing with its economy and does not see how it can be a global financial superpower anytime soon. This is fascinating analysis on China’s financial situation that everybody should listen to. (Order the full China report here.) Like Martin Armstrong, Dowd is also a big fan of stocking up on food and water in case of supply chain disruptions.

Sorry if this question is impossible to explain quickly but what is the purpose of the hundreds of new AI data centers? Are the centers the actual bubble? Don’t we have enough centers now to run AI? It seems to work just fine without 1000% growth in computing power.
very good question 47. I’ve been asking the same thing. A bit frightened by what the real answer might be.
I think, not sure, they need servers to hold the 500 hours of video uploaded to YouTube every minute, along with Reddit , Tumblr, Rumble, TikTok and everything else.
Writing on his Truth Social platform, Trump warned, “Remember when I gave Iran ten days to MAKE A DEAL or OPEN UP THE HORMUZ STRAIT. Time is running out — 48 hours before all hell will reign [sic] down on them. Glory be to GOD!”
Greg, thank you for inviting Ed back on! As stated in my comments following Dr. Betsy’s interview (she is a blessing), I am concerned about how the Supreme Court will rule on the Birthright Citizenship case. In my opinion, the Supreme Court are clueless. They are sheltered by their privileged, cushy lives. Birthright Citizenship is as bad as the fraud associated with the Somalis and Armenian Russians. The fraud in Minneapolis is nothing compared to the hundreds of billions being stolen from the State of California and the Federal Govt. in California. Dr. Oz is on his way back to California, as well as VP Vance. They are working to get it stopped. Gov. Newsom looks the other way. He is too busy running for president and trashing President Trump. With the crooked Democrat politicians in Sacramento, the fraudsters from other countries, the millions of illegal immigrants allowed in by the Biden admin., the rich Chinese flying in to give birth to a US citizen, California residents are in serious trouble! Rich people are fleeing, because the Dems continue to raise taxes. Those fools in political office do not know how to cut expenses and wipe out fraud. They punish law-abiding citizens. L.A. has more than 400K gangsters. The illegals own the Mayor. They are her base. God help us! Linda
Linda,
Gov. Newscum is a moron. How can he present himself as a Presidential Candidate when California is currently facing some Unbelievably Horrendous Consequences of His Totally Insane Economic Policies (that completely ignore reality)!!
Martin Armstrong states: “that between 2019 and 2023, California lost a staggering $91.4 Billion in Potential Income as residents fled and relocated elsewhere, with another $11.9 billion leaving just last year. This is not a minor shift but a Major Structural Problem that is Accelerating and not Stabilizing”!!
Armstrong goes on to say: “What is driving this mass exodus is not very complicated – it is due to California having one of the Highest State Income Tax Rates in the US (currently at 13.3%) and California also treats Capital Gains as Ordinary Income”!! Housing Costs in California are among the Highest in the Nation, add in School Taxes to the cost of living and even Very High Income Earners begin to question: Why Am I Living in Such a Tax Hell Hole???
We Americans “Do Not Need New (Demon Rat) Scum” Managing the Economy of the United States of America!!!
Katy, you are correct about Newsom. I despise him. Hopefully he and his cronies in Sacramento will end up in prison. California residents have been cheated out of billions of dollars. In a prior comment of mine that has not yet been posted, Christopher F. Rufo, Town Hall News, 4.1.26, describes California as “Newsom’s Empire of Fraud”. According to other reports I have read, the scams involve NGOs laundering Federal dollars that get split with the politicians. Dr. Oz is in California at this time working to shut down the fake hospice care facilities. Linda

Some people will tell you that Jesus knows know but I always question, how would we know what Jesus knows? He was the Son of Jehovah when he was here? That didn’t change after he spent 3 days in Hell and arose the 3rd day?
Yeah, I don’t buy people claiming arcane knowledge. I believe the Son of God
Very apparent pattern of hundreds millionaires and billionaires that they are fully exposed still charging full fees for reports, subscriptions and tickets to events/conferences and consults. It is just amazing and hypocritical as humanity and many species plus Earth are facing extinction. Many millions have passed away and many more to come ending in billions not surviving. Awaken dear souls still selling as have sold. Seems too late – should have been a concerted effort started even before covid. Please let go of the ego and function with soul over mind and money. A few are helping and gifting freely not charging- too few. Set an example and be a leader for your area. It starts with those who have no life stress already being successful. Business is not the former model. Wake up!
Seer,
The interview was free and so is USAW. Nobody is required or forced to pay a dime for the content.

You are one of the few that give freely .
The others that don’t are more interested in money than helping .
A lot of people didn’t have enough money to pay for info before
gas and food went to the moon.
The hypocritical part is saying they want to help and unless you
have money you are out of luck .
They are like drug dealers give people a taste and then its
money time .
The proof is in the pudding as they say .
Thanks for being one of the few .

We know this site is free. Each comment is also a contribution. My message is to awaken the super wealthy charging fees as usual in this very treacherous times.

Thanks.
P.S. Add’l info re fraud. It isn’t just my opinion that California residents are victims of Democrat fraudsters. Townhall news (www.townhall.com), 4.1.26. Christopher F. Rufo, posted an article in Townhall News regarding “Gavin Newsom’s Empire of Fraud.”. Romanian fraud rings, Neo-Nazi prison gangs, a Memphis rapper, organized crime syndicates from around the world, ALL TO THE BENEFIT OF THE DEMOCRAT POWER STRUCTURE. Under Newsom, fraudsters and organized crime have stolen at least $180;Billion from California Unemployment Benefits, Health Care and Welfare. “The largest financial crimes in American history”. As stated previously, Vice President Vance is on his way to California, as well as Dr. Oz. Nick Shirley, the young reporter who goes around knocking on doors of buildings with fake, empty offices of fraudulent hospice care groups has been busy exposing crime. The parking lots are filled with very expensive cars — Teslas, Mercedes, …. Newsom and the other Democrats share in the profits from these illegal enterprises. They should all be sent to prison. While the Democrats in DC do nothing but attempt to prevent ICE from doing their job, the crooked Democrats are participants in the biggest crime rings in American history. All while the Supreme Court Justice fools are about to allow the illegal invaders and Chinese fraudsters to cripple America. It will take a miracle to save us! Linda

Major Earthquake Struck Near the San Andreas Fault in Northern California…
Stefan Burns Apr 2, 2026 SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
Early in the morning on April 2nd 2026 people across the San Francisco Bay Area were jolted awake by a magnitude 4.6 earthquake, the strongest since September of 2023. Occurring in the Santa Cruz Mountains close to the epicenter of the M6.9 Loma Prieta Earthquake of 1989 under a similar Saturn-Neptune conjunction, is this M4.6 potentially a foreshock to a larger earthquake soon to come? And how does space weather affect earthquake activity? Geophysicist Stefan Burns reports…

Ed Dowd is a good man. Really good.
Iran’s economy is collapsing. They just minted a paper 10 million rial note that’s worth only 7 U.S. dollars. They are rolling out childhood military uniforms. The Mohammedans conscript children into military service.
Yes, they have a drought in Iran and a water problem, but anyone who thinks that’ll stop those people from fighting is dreaming. They’ll fight and fight some more.
People don’t understand the Iranians. You can poison gas them (like what happened during g the Iran-Iraq War), you can starve them, you can destroy their public water supply, you can destroy their power grid and bomb them “back into the stone age”…. yet, they’ll still be plenty of Mohammedan fighters left to put up a fight for longer than Washington thinks….
Let’s see just how smart President Trump really is on this situation. If the President orders massive destruction from mostly U.S. airpower and then pulls out and let’s Iran situation and turn into a broken Syria, then things might not be so bad for America.
And Trump must also separate America from Israel insofar as the Zionists want Iran totally defeated-even if that means nuclear war….
“Nuclear war between Israel and Iran is inevitable” ~ Dmitry Medvedev
I agree with the Russians. Sooner or later Israel and Iran are going to fight to the death. And hopefully, President Trump keeps we Americans out it.
As I said, Ed Dowd is a good man, but he hasn’t factored in the long-term ramifications of this Middle East War, e.g., inflation pressures and how they will persist.
Really? Really,
They can fight starving and dying of thirst? You are giving them waaaaaaaay too much credit. This is country ending stuff, and then there are the bombings: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/irans-highest-bridge-middle-east-destroyed-after-trumps-back-stone-age-threat This infrastructure bombing campaign is going to go on every day for the next few weeks. You are ignoring facts and making stupid shit up about “persisting.”
Greg
I wish all of this would stop,,( war) , Israel is getting hammered with hypersonics and the populous of both countries are going to be buried under rubble and no one to dig anyone out,,,,,,Someone needs to stop this nonsense ,,,,America has lost lots of aircraft,, radar sites and almost all bases in the Middle East,,, China is providing real time inferred/ thermal satellite info to Iran and Iran can use that info to deploy inferred/ thermal optical anti aircraft missiles to take out stealth aircraft,,, Russia China and North Korea supplying Iran with more missiles ( advanced ) man pads drones to Iran and they are currently flying in transport planes with those weapons,,, (GOGGLE THAT NAY SAYERS) ,,,,Irans nuke site was supposedly destroyed last summer and the bunch with sleeping bags on their heads have been killed ,,,, so mission accomplished from what I can see,,,, Hopefully everyone swallows some pride and try’s to stop this,,,, it’s costing the USA a billion dollars a day not counting destroyed facilities/ planes and both Ford and Abe Lincoln being hit,,,,,, There is a large Christian population in Iran and I suppose those people’s lives being carpet bombed doesn’t matter to a lot of people ( Judgement Day is getting closer ),,,,, This crap needs to stop,,, like Ed indicated any continuation of this war will expedite the financial casualties he mentioned,,,, Thanks for your insights Ed,,,, be my guess you agree with ( my opinion) and post ???? Persia is the oldest continuous country still in existence ( 3200 BC),,,, they are a hardy bunch,,,,, they will survive this and China will help them rebuild when this baboonery ends,,,,I know one thing,,, we better not start war with China or Russia because we are way way behind on this advanced weaponry and China and Russias new capabilities have rendered F22,F35 and B2 and new B21 radar bombers obsolete ,,,, Engineers missed the inferred thermal aspect big time,,, and constellations of inferred satellites and Ai integration to ground inferred thermal optical missile systems,,,,,,, We need to bring our junk home and rebuild and get at least caught up militarily,,,,China is advancing with quantum aspects of detection and weaponry while be are still chasing our tail with another possible long war,,,,this 💩was suppose to last 3 days now over its a month and I see today some are talking it might last into fall,,,,,I am now enjoying $5 gallon diesel and stop with the propaganda mind control short term pain for long term gain,,,,, what a load of 💩
“7,”
You have zero information coming out of Iran–zero. The coun try is being destroyed and they are short, very short, on water and food.
Greg
Israel is getting hammered also,,,All of our bases around the middle east are destroyed,,,,this war will finish off the petro dollar and our military and our country,,,,not sure where you get your news but Iran shot down plenty of aircraft lately,,,Russian Chechens said they will join the war and possibly N Korea,,,,,and yes,,,,If Trump and the Fox news host carpet bomb the citizens of Iran and their power and electricity there will be a huge humanitarian crisis and many innocent people killed (murdered),,,and the whole world will turn against America even more than they already have,,,You thought this would only last 3 days,,,now we are over a month,,,and the truth will come out eventually on deaths of service people and the wounded,,,
I bet Steve Quayle and Dane W and others agree with me,,,If you guys want to hide under the covers and not speak up for the travesty unfolding and whats right from wrong then good for you guys,,,,,This is more weapons of mass destruction lies like in Iraq,,,this time we will lose really big,,,,I am done here Greg,,,I will stick with my principles and you guys cleave to your mega hats, and Trump and Paula White worship,,,,,Katy Bar and Really awake are correct,,,,and you are losing all of your good commenters ,,,,,,,Good Bye!!! Your stuck with Stan and boring G500 that know nothing,,,,
I will never be back,,,,,,
“7,” yes but we know the damage as there is reporting on the ground. There is no reporting in IRAN. It is a black hole of non-information. The country is being destroyed. You kind of went off the deep end here. I am just talking about the reporting or the lack there of. You do realize I don’t make any decisions for the White House or the US government–right??
Greg
Greg,,,, do you suspect that Iran has foreseen this scenario coming and has been storing food and water for years in anticipation for a long drawn out war ???? Persians could be Prepper s !!! Maybe they listened to Martin A and have 2 years stored ahead of food and water,,,🚿???? Something to consider,,,, They for sure have plenty of hidden underground facilities and plenty of missiles,,,,
“7”
No, because they would have no riots because of water rationing a few months back. Iran is still rationing water. Wait untill the food gets in very Short supply. Traffic in Hormuz is being stopped going out and coming in. (as in bringing in food!!!)
Greg
That bunch can survive on camel dung and drink their own urine if need be,,,,,You guys are blinded to whats going on and under mind control,,,I will stick with my principles,,,you might want to listen to Dane W this weekend,,,we are running out of water also and America has blood on its hands like no other nation since Vietnam,,,,at some point God Almighty is going to judge us for this never ending murder /war of innocent people,,,,,I am done here,,,,If you guys agree with this war and want to worship Trump you guys are just as guilty,,,,this is more never ending genocide,,,,,murder on a huge scale,,,,I want no part of this ,,,,Good bye
“7,” They got to have water–period. This is what they are facing in Iran and this is only the severe water problem: https://cleantechnica.com/2026/03/09/iran-was-facing-water-bankruptcy-before-the-bombs-began-falling/
Greg
You get time go watch Syrian Girl,,,She toured Iran before the war and the people there are just as normal as us,,,women have no head covering and people were out at malls,,and coffee shops enjoying themselves and it reminded me of America in the 1980’s,,,,,Trump has been carpet bombing those people and getting ready to take out their water and power and do more carpet bombing of innocents and civilian infrastructure ,,,,that school killing killed 175 girls then they sent incendiary cruise missiles in just for fun and to do a double tap,,,,,,,,we have no business doing this,,,and this week Trump said its to take their oil so everyone can be rich,,,,,,whats wrong with you guys ???? Anyone in agreement with this war are just as guilty and have blood on your hands ,,
Last Post,,,,
Yes, it’s a lovely peaceful place where human and religious rights are in abundance. A modern day beacon of civility.
Seems people have an issue discerning propaganda from reality.
This is the same regime where the secret “religious” police beats and rapes young woman for not wearing head covering.
I will say that my beliefs on the rights of women do somewhat align with the them
Tell your views about women to great women like, Condoleeza Rice, for example. I do hope you are being facetious regarding your remarks.
Greg, you and Really placed your bets.
Me thinks the Iranians are in a suicide pact. Their holding out to the death, the very end! Will it give them the upper hand, in the death of the west? Of the world as we know it.
If it is allowed to continue, or isn’t stopped and soon, this is it! Wicked serious! As they say, in old New England.
Jesus didn’t say, these days will have to be cut short. Or no flesh would be saved, for nothing!!
Yup! He didn’t say it, fer nuttin honey!
Naw… sewercide pact? The same pieces of Shiite that worship Satan and whose sole purpose is to bring about the end of days…
Say it ain’t so
The real danger is Satan’s allies on the ground in America, the Demoncrats, haters of Christ and protectors and purveyors of pedophiles. Ever single one should be brought to desolation, arrested and tried before righteous men and when convicted of their numerous sins against Jehovah (we will leave these to HIS righteous wrath) and illegal actions against Americans and its citizens, they should be executed publicly.
Their ill gotten gains should be returned to those they robbed (including the US Treasury).
So no food and water will not stop them???
Damn, dude, get real. Fully hydrated, most can’t go 72 hours without water and that is at standard temperature and pressure… not the middle of an arid desert. It will only get worse as temps rise.
People can go much longer with out food but if they are armed, how long do you think it will take the demonic Shiites to kill and eat one another for the greater good? Will of Allah… you know Satan’s other name.
I love that you use the word Zionist. You mean all the bad Jews that believe Iran, Hezbollah and the Palesimians , who have been brainwashing their people with ‘Kill all the Jews. From the river to the sea’ bullshiite. The Jews believe that these people will kill them and they have been proven correct for 60 years.
Zionist?!? Yeah, them Zionist . It’s always those damn Zionists right?!?
I don’t know if you are an American but these evil mullahs will nuke America with their 2nd or 3 rd nuke. You can not make peace with people who seek to bring about the end of the world.
And if you are an American, believe we can make peace with zealots and are Pro Ayatollah, then you are below average IQ… we’re talking below turnip level
Clearly Trump and the neocons have underestimated the resilience of the Iranians and their determination to survive.
They have little to loose, when they try to negotiate the negotiators get murdered.
They either win or face the horrors of the Palestinian genocide.
Robert,
You can pretend Iran is not being destroyed, but it is. What the hell are you talking about “determination”???? The country is in “water bankruptcy” One of many negative facts facing the Mullahs. This is a regime that promised “death to America” for nearly 50 years.
Greg
I am not pretending that Iran is not being destroyed.
And yes the mullahs have been talking about death to the Rev.3:9, S.O.S. mind virus for 50 years, not necessarily the American people, contrary to the MSM.
The Iranian people are very willing (determined), to fight to the death to not become another Gaza.
Killing the mullahs just as they negotiated the deal was not a good way to start a ‘just’ war.
If Trump tries to ‘kill a civilization’ tonight, it may very well lead to the ‘death to America’ attitude for many countries.
Pray for Peace.
Robert,
Don’t equate this with GAZA. Hamas evil bastards are engaged in armed conflict from densely populated areas to garner a high civilian body count. This is a well-known military strategy. There are some similarities though. Iran mullahs kill 30,000 of their own people and then post women and children at bridges and power plants as human shields. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/iran-calls-on-its-youth-to-form-human-chains-around-power-plants-after-trump-warns-of-complete-demolition/ar-AA20jRe4?ocid=BingNewsSerp

Invaders unchecked. The rest of us to get this.
Reply to Greg:
Question to AI: Did America drop more ordnance during the Vietnam war than during the entirety of WW2?
Answer from AI: “Yes, it is accurate that over 7.5 million tons of ordnance were dropped on Southeast Asia by the United States during the Vietnam War (1965-1975). This is more than double the ~2.15 million tons dropped by the US in all theaters of World War II, making it the largest aerial bombardment in history”…
I say that not only did America drop big, beautiful bombs, it also dropped approximately 352,000 tonnes of U.S. napalm bombs were dropped in Southeast Asia between 1963 and 1973. Do you know what it’s like for a country to get napalmed like that? Agent orange was also used and many other genocidal tactics were deployed against the Vietnamese. They kept right on fighting…. Just like the Mohammedans will.
Back in the 1960s and 70s the USA’s best and brightest, men a lot smarter than me, Greg Hunter, Pete Hegseth and President Donald J Trump thought Vietnam would be vanquished. It wasn’t…
Boots on the ground in Vietnam for two decades didn’t get the job done…. Two million Vietnamese slaughtered and their country wrecked – and nearly 50 thousand U.S. service men dead and over two hundred thousand American service men’s minds and bodies injured. U.S.A. blood and treasure wasted on a war that 20 years later was known as a big, big mistake. And you know the rest of the story.
Iran is five times bigger than Vietnam with mountain ranges taller than the Colorado Rockies. The Iranians are armed far, far better than the Vietnamese and supported by an economic superpower called China and supportwd by a dangerous and very smart adversary called, Russia with North Korea right there, too.
Please don’t underestimate America’s enemies this time around like “the best and brightest” did back in Vietnam.
The best case scenario for Trump is that he destroys as much of Iran’s capabilities as possible and get out and stay out. The Mohammedans aren’t going anywhere as a religion and the Persians won’t be displaced from Iran unless Israel completely genocides them , and that might just happen. I hope America isn’t any part of that.
BTW: Did you happen to read Robert McNamara’s book on Vietnam, yet? – especially the section warning about future nuclear war? You can buy a copy on eBay for less than five dollars. Secretary of Defense, Robert McNamara (Part of the best and brightest on JFK’s team) had far, far more brainpower than the Trump administration combined. And McNamara could admit in writing 11 major mistakes which of which Donald J Trump is repeating them all.
I’ll tell you where all this is going: this war with Iran is just part of the run-up to the biggest war in world history between China, America, EU, Russia, India and Pakistan and that little and very deadly country called, Israel.
Get your prepping done. And your praying.
Enough said. Call Ed.

Thanks Greg- Great interview, as was the last one. There’s a number of comments about Iran and for good reason. I think the best question at this point is- ‘What does the end of this look like?’ We should keep an open mind, but it seems everyone is angry about something these days. It would be fair to say that no one really knows how this ends, and thats where the rubber meets the road. We should be sure the President has information that we do not, but it is also his job to sell the public on what ever policy decision has been made. And for that, the ‘selling’- the case hasn’t been made very well, at least as far as for why now. Second to ‘Why now?’ Is the question of civilian targets which is generally taboo. I saw the compilation of Bibi saying that Iran was only weeks away from having nukes and that was over the last 25 years. And that leads me to what i think is the second major question of this affair- ‘ Can the Israelites be good partners?’ They have an agenda thats different from ours. It’s generally reported they have a kill list. Now, if the IDF is targeting leadership, how can we negotiate with the next person/target to be taken out? I would like to also suggest that Trump could use this as a reason to walk away from NATO, turn North America into a major oil and gas exporter, raise the cost structure for Asian manufacturing, and a few others. These are big events for sure. —- either way I’m still getting ready for some kind of famine- cause unknown.
Greg,
What we have prayed for is finally happening.
Trump is clearing house.

Greg,
The demons tormented this man for 11 years for exposing their darkest secrets. Instead of the demons being brought to justice, these demons used our justice system to suppress and destroy this man and the truth. But the truth is the ultimate shield just as Christ is the ultimate shield for our souls.

Catherine Austin Fitts warns that the closure of the Strait of Hormuz is intentionally imploding the global economy, disrupting food supply chains, and heightening the risk of widespread famine—as part of an agenda to implement both “the control grid and depopulation”.
“This is Covid 2.0.”
“This is a new excuse to shut down to preserve energy and food… And now you have something that’s creating the conditions of famine.”
“To me that’s very disturbing.”

Maga is in total denial of “the terrible truth”–DJT is a Globalist Judas Goat who is leading America to the slaughterhouse.
I hope CAF isn’t banned from USAWD for her ‘blasphemy’ against Trump!
Gerald,
No, I just want people to report it all and be objective. Not just report the “fact” that back up a certain point of view. I want actual sources and not someone’s opinion passed off as a source.
Greg
Greg,
President Trump 2.0 has been astonishingly awful. SO bad, in fact, that if a 2024 Election rematch occurred today–Kamala would win a 40-state landslide! . . . (Total Bull Crap, PROPAGANDA, DISINFORMATION, FAKE NEWS. (“in fact” whose “Fact”???????) I Cut the rest of the propaganda you are posting in a story about geoengineering.
Greg)
Flying,
Total bull crap, disinformation, propaganda.

Hi Gerald
Is this the same CAF that said there was a $21 trillion dollar underground bunker? When to spike in GDP, to construction supplies and skilled labor. Asking for a friend.
CAF seems to be lost but I appreciate her past contributions
I really don’t give a single Shiite about the rest of the parasitic world. The ones that bleed our people and treasury dry while trying to destroy our culture and enslave and murder the American people.
If Europe wants the Straits open, let them spend their blood and treasure on it… ohs, nose… most of Europe is so close to becoming the Caliphate that they don’t offer an Easter message while talking up Ram-a-Danna-Dingdong. These corrupt EU bureaucrats are allies to the mullahs.
Hopefully, their refusal to help Trump open the Straits will allow us to dismantle NATO
Hi Galaxy.
You addressed me by name, so Greg should allow me to respond. However, I notice that he allows you poke at everyone else in the chat but often prevents them from poking back.
Galaxy: your entire life seems to revolve around attacking anyone who dares to criticize your “Perfect Messiah” Trump; you judge others as “good” if they kiss Trump’s butt (like you do) and “bad” if they don’t. If CAF were in the Trump Cult you would consider her “good”–no matter what she says. Since she isn’t, you trash her because of her perfectly rational & reasonable criticisms of his policies.
You’re one of the most CRAVEN Trump-worshippers I’ve ever seen and have already forgotten that the SOH is closed because TRUMP (and Israel) decided to start a war w/Iran. You’re no better than the Liberal idiots who defended Biden and worshipped Obama.
Greg,
Ed got me thinking about all the local middle sized banks that typically lend for commercial properties.
These guys are taking mega losses in CA, WA, OR and IL. NY will be where the next commercial properties collapse
I think Ed is spot on.
Greg, your long-storied career is evident in your interviews being able to draw out an overview in the present. Ed got himself stocked up in January, as further evidence of the time. Your ever-present admonition to be right with Jesus, God’s son, is in service with all divine beings and saints, Saint Michael, the Archangel being the greatest protector.
This is the time to wash away the hubris in order to see clearly where we are. All our lives need to be viewed through the light of divination, as our individual souls reveal the state of lifelong choices. The avoidance of consequences of actions on our souls is the greatest disease in the current time. We are trending into exaltation of evil excused by the exorcising of it. War is now our right; peace is to blame. There are many unseen great forces that determine outcomes and need to be discovered by all before life on this earth becomes impossible.
Thanks, Sister Susan! Hang on to Jesus.

Eisenhower’s Final Warning: Why He Suspected A Military Coup Against Kennedy
WW2 Memento 201,297 views Mar 14, 2026
January 17, 1961: Eisenhower’s farewell address. Five-star general who won WWII warns America about “military-industrial complex.” Three days later, JFK takes office. April 1961: Bay of Pigs disaster. Kennedy refuses military escalation. Generals blame him. March 1962: General Lemnitzer presents Operation Northwoods—Pentagon plan to stage terrorist attacks on American civilians and blame Cuba. Proposals include: sinking U.S. ships, bombing Miami, shooting down civilian aircraft, killing Cuban refugees. All to justify invading Cuba. Kennedy’s response: “We are not going to invade Cuba.” December 1962: Kennedy fires Lemnitzer. October 1962: Cuban Missile Crisis. Joint Chiefs demand air strikes. Kennedy chooses diplomacy. General LeMay: Say’s”Greatest defeat in our history.” June 1963: Kennedy announces nuclear test ban. Military opposes. November 22, 1963: Kennedy assassinated. Warren Commission includes Allen Dulles—CIA director Kennedy fired. Eisenhower’s warning became prophecy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Anp71ja0RI
Kennedy chose diplomacy.
Kennedy pursued peace with the Soviets.
Every time Kennedy went against military advice the rift deepened.
Eisenhower warned him, the military industrial complex would resist civilian control. Would push for war. Would seek “unwarranted influence”.
Kennedy resisted and paid the price!

Greg the writings on the wall, were bombing the hell outa them and these people are not giving up! Watch to the end, it gave me the heebee geebee’s! This girl who refuses to be a towel head, wont wear the hajib and paying fines for not doing so and says being in harms way she will die in dignity! How can you fight that, and we wont find the enriched Uranium. It’s probably now being offloaded onto one of their hypersonic long range ICBM’S. THIS IS A NIGHT MARE AND MY ONLY HOPE IS THESE DAY’S WILL BE CUT SHORT BEFORE ITS TO LATE! As you say, mate, or no flesh would be saved!
May,
This is propaganda–period. The US has flown 3,700 missions and only 2 aircraft have been shot down by Iran. (Yes, we lost other aircraft on the ground, but we are talking about shot down.) Enough with the pearl clutching. Yes, the US is “Bombing the hell out of Iran.” and you are getting zero news from inside Iran. You can bet the country is under severe stress. Add that to water and food in VERY short supply. I have posted links on the food and water issue several times. This is scientific analysis and not propaganda. Iran is suffering severe water shortages called “water bankruptcy.” It is, as one study called it, “country ending.” Food shortages are bordering on “famine.” They can act all big and strong, but the fact is Iran is being destroyed. I hate it for the vast majority of people not wanting to go along with the crazy Mullahs.
