The other January 6th

It's January 11th already!

Rose and I are up and about now, only the lung congestion and cough remain at this point a month and a half later.  We're doing stuff around the farm that needs doing.

On Wednesday Rose and I moved a 1/2 ton of pellets to the doghouse. It's closer to the back door where we bring them into the house.  Whew...

Well we didn't win the 1.1 Billion dollar MegaMillions lottery on Tuesday, so I guess I can't retire yet.   1.3 Billion is slated for Friday January 13th!

Rose saw a Goldfinch in the apple tree yesterday, he looked out of place.

Birds are flocking to the suet we put out at the deer yard, no bears in sight.

                                Our Christmas Cactus is happy!

Whole Chickens are now $12 a bird at MB, that's for MB chickens, not even the Perdue birds yikes...  

Rose made up 11 quart bags of Chicken soup to replenish our freezer stocks, we used 3 rotisserie chickens at $4.96 a bird, much cheaper than the uncooked chickens we saw. On to Turkey soup next...

Rose made up a batch of turkey soup last month that rivaled Nana's! (we'd picked up an extra turkey for leftovers then we got sick) It was so good... no, it was awesome!

February is fast approaching, that means Chili season, I for one am ready!

I'm going to start some Sauerkraut this month, the articles I've been reading all say that fresh Kraut is far superior to the canned store kraut! Wish me luck I can't wait to try this.

On New Year Resolutions:  Waiting until the dawn of spring, specifically around the time of the spring equinox, to make more concrete resolutions. After the spring equinox — which is March 20th this year — days will begin to be longer than nights. Light will outpace darkness. Photosynthesis will return. Water will start to thaw and flow. Buds will reappear. The world, including yourself, will reawaken, and it’s at this time that you may feel greater direction, clarity, and energy as to where you’d like to go and what you’d like to do in the coming year. 

We went out to get/replace the Nyquil we used last month, Rite Aid COLD/FLU isle was decimated, nothing at all on the entire aisle shelves.  We were able to pickup the last 2 pak of bottles on the shelf from Wally world... whew!

I spoke to one of my guys in Canada, he mentioned that a 16 lb. turkey in Canada is $100 a bird now $6.25/lb...  And it costs $48 for a family of three to go to McDonald's!  WOW! I thought our prices were bad!

 

COVID-19,  XBB 1.5, The Kraken Variant

More Evidence Arises That Ivermectin Is Safe And Effective At Treating Covid-19... Doctors That Advocate For It’s Use Are Still Ridiculed And Persecuted.

Bill Gates Vows To Pump mRna Into Food Supply To ‘Force-Jab’ the Unvaccinated What could possibly go wrong...

The omicron strain has continued to mutate; there are now more than 650 subvariants, and that doesn’t include the previous Greek-letter versions like Alpha, Gamma, Delta, and their subtypes.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) notes that the very contagious XBB1.5 made up 27 percent of US cases for the week ending on January 7^th, a major increase from the month before. More than 70 percent of cases in the Northeast are now believed to be the Kraken variant.

The CoVID Injection Toll: December 30, 2022 (substack.com)

How much will it take to change people’s minds? I addressed this in a comment on Substack a few weeks ago. The answer is: no amount of deaths will be enough to change some people’s minds. There are people who wake up, go to sleep, and spend every minute of the day in between nursing a screaming hatred of Trump and his voters. They have concluded somehow that getting additional injections will be the perfect revenge against those subhuman MAGAts (as they like to say).

Moderna CEO: 400% price hike on COVID vaccine “consistent with the value” Moderna is considering raising the price of its COVID-19 vaccine by over 400 percent—from $26 per dose to between $110 and $130 per dose—according to a report by The Wall Street Journal. The revelation that Moderna may match Pfizer's price increase comes just a day after Moderna announced that its COVID-19 vaccine sales in 2022 totaled approximately $18.4 billion.

Now, the media is admitting that yes, perhaps the globalists do have more than just a little influence over governments, social policies, and economic outcomes. But, what the mainstream doesn’t like is the assertion that globalists have nefarious or authoritarian intentions. That’s just crazy tinfoil hat talk, right?

The reason for the narrative shift is obvious. Far too many people witnessed the true globalist agenda in action during the pandemic lockdowns and now they see the conspiracy for what it is.

 

 

OUR POLITICAL THEATER

Let’s take them chronologically. The so-called visit to the Border was a choreographed three hours to appease the demands of the Republicans while keeping the mainstream media away from the actual crisis. Joe traveled to El Paso, where the city officials swept the homeless from the streets to allow Biden to walk through downtown without tripping over the usual homeless illegals that generally live on the sidewalks. He then ventured to the bridge which connects Mexico with El Paso. This location is an actual port of entry, so of course, Joe saw no migrants crossing the Rio Grande. He could have gone a half mile either east or west of El Paso and seen what we see every day; hundreds of illegals from 160 different countries entering and dispersing throughout America.

Ironically, his team chose the backdrop of the Trump Wall in El Paso for a Biden video walking with Border Agents. This is the same wall that Biden and his supporters want to be taken down. One last thing about Biden’s visit. Governor Abbott arrived at the airport last minute to meet the President, but Biden did not invite the Senators or any of the Congressmen from the area to join him. Biden and his team wanted as sterile an environment as they could show to the American people. This three hour pass through was purely a photo op for 2024.

Crisis, what crisis? El Paso clears migrant camps ahead of Biden's first trip to border on Sunday as frustrated agents say numbers always fall in January and he might as well have gone to Des Moines.

I wonder if the FBI will conduct raids on FJB’s home? And rifle through DrShrill’s underwear?

Biden's New Plan would set 30,000 Illegal Aliens Free Per Month

Brandon Adminstration Admits Keystone Cancellation Cost Tens of Thousands of Jobs. 

The premier of Alberta, Canada’s biggest oil producing province, said that Biden’s decision to cancel the pipeline would kill thousands of union labor jobs in both Canada and the United States, while making America more dependent on foreign “dictatorships” for its energy needs. 

The Pentagon even with having "misplaced" 61% of its assets, the Comptroller couldn't bring himself to admit that they failed.

“I would not say that we flunked. The process is important for us to do, and it is making us get better. It is not making us get better as fast as we want,” [McCord] said.

The Defense Department has failed its fifth-ever audit, unable to account for more than half of its assets, but the effort is being viewed as a “teachable moment,” according to its chief financial officer. 

After 1,600 auditors combed through DOD’s $3.5 trillion in assets and $3.7 trillion in liabilities, officials found that the department couldn’t account for about 61 percent of its assets, Pentagon Comptroller Mike McCord told reporters on Tuesday.

Biden and his Demos based their midterm strategy on “protecting democracy” against Trump and his MAGA extremists. In other words, the masters of hate and fear ran on their “hate and fear Trump” model, and they succeeded in holding back a red wave in a year that all indications supported it — except for the Trump factor. Turns out it was a brilliant strategy.

MAGA - The election of Trump itself did not create the hate – the epidemic of cognitive dissonance on the Left we branded as Trump Derangement Syndrome – his election revealed that hate and fear.

Trump triggered primarily suburban “white privilege” Democrats, among them wealthy elitists who already harbor a fear of grassroots American Patriots, those Hillary Clinton described as “deplorables.”

But the divisive manifestation of Trump’s unmitigated egomaniacal narcissism certainly exacerbated the hate and fear.

This is precisely why Biden delivered two very high-profile speeches before the election about “protecting democracy” from the MAGA threat. “Protecting democracy” has become code for hate and fear Trump, as has the “MAGA Republican threat.”

Neither of those speeches mentioned a single word about inflation, crime, immigration, or any other voter concerns. Democrat pollsters knew exactly what “fear and hate Trump” buttons to push to keep their voters on the plantation months ahead of the first ballots being mailed. And that is precisely why Biden’s handlers sent him out with the “democracy” message. As for Republicans, apparently running against Biden’s record was not a winning strategy. Biden’s ineptitude was already deeply discounted by Demo voters, baked into the electoral cake. (Clearly, Biden so lowered the mental acuity bar for Democrats that even an imbecilic, tatted-up thug like John Fetterman prevailed in Pennsylvania.)

Like it or not, Trump is the lightning rod for all the deeply seated fear and hatred on the Left, and it is undeniably an earned and enduring legacy that he will not shake off.

Demos will run and win on the same hate-Trump strategy in 2024, when they will have substantially more Senate seats at risk. Of the 33 Class 1 Senate seats on the ballot, there will be 21 Democrats and two independents who caucus with Senate Democrats. If Trump is in, Demos will win.

Our name gives you a clue as to what a Republic is. We are the United States of America. We are a collection of fifty individual states, each having its own government, and combined, all fifty participate in an election every four years to elect a President. Based on the two Senators combined with the number of Representatives a state has, it gives them the number of votes they cast in the Electoral College that decides our President. My small state of New Hampshire has two Representatives and, therefore, four Electoral College votes. California, on the other end of the spectrum, has fifty-five votes. More people equates to more votes. But the Electoral College makes my vote as important as someone voting in San Francisco. There are a total of 538 electoral votes. Majority needed to elect the President and vice president: 270.

If the country did away with the Electoral College and went with a popular vote count, the high-population areas like California and New York would dictate to the country who should sit in the White House. Since these areas are typically Liberal and vote as such, it would benefit Democrats to change the system. We on the Right can never let that happen.

Distinguishing legitimate government from tyranny.

1. Rule of Law vs. Rule of Man: Legitimate government involves “making laws” and “the execution of such laws.” Tyranny is “When the governor, however intitled, makes not the law, but his will, the rule…” In modern terminology, this is the distinction between “the rule of law” and “the rule of man.”
2. Public Good vs. Private Advantage: Legitimate government is “only for the public good.” Tyranny is the use of power “not for the good of those who are under it, but for his own private separate advantage.”
3. Rights Protection vs. Rights Non-Protection: And the whole purpose of government, according to Locke, is the protection of “rights”/“property,” by which he means rightful ownership of possessions as well as one’s own body. Thus, tyranny is when a ruler’s “commands and actions are not directed to the preservation of the properties of his people, but the satisfaction of his own ambition, revenge, covetousness, or any other irregular passion.”

US Congress, the Peoples House Proves It’s a Rigged, Uniparty, Dictatorship

President Biden has finally found a solution to address the surge in illegal crossings at the southern border: tell the tens of thousands of aliens unlawfully entering the United States from Mexico that they can come to America “legally” if they instead fly to a port-of-entry in the interior of the country.

Seriously, for all the Biden administration’s spin, that’s his plan — and it is illegal.

Biden Admin Considering Ban on Gas Stoves: Feds say Gas Stoves Racist & Hurt Minorities! Last year, democrats started pushing the theory that gas stoves can somehow make COVID even worse. Seriously, again this isn’t a parody! The media actually started running articles with titles like “If This Is in Your Kitchen, Your COVID Death Risk May Be Even Higher”

If you were wondering why Joe Biden chose this moment to go after your gas stove, yesterday’s report from The Wall Street Journal provides a clue: “U.S. production of natural gas … has hit record levels.” President Green Energy and his ecofascist allies can’t have that.

The Biden administration’s Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has teased that it could soon decide to ban gas stoves. “This is a hidden hazard,” explained CPSC Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. “Any option is on the table. Products that can’t be made safe can be banned.”

 

Of those polled, 22 percent say Democrats are our greatest threat. That would include people like myself, who believe the Dems have become the American communists -- determined to destroy everything that makes us exceptional -- as a necessary measure to marshal in a socialist utopia.

Another 17 percent say that Republicans are the greatest threat. Those would be our fellow citizens who have bought Biden’s semi-fascist baloney and Merrick Garland’s “white supremacist” propaganda. So much for returning comity and normalcy to the American conversation.

The Right Sees a Border Crisis; The Left Sees a Border Opportunity  Incredibly, the left complained that Biden wasn’t doing enough for immigrants, while the right questioned what was being done to help the American people and restore rule of law.

Biden has committed more crimes against the American people than any other President, observes David Horowitz. In 2022 alone the open border alone has resulted in 110,000 deaths from fentanyl and 33,000 murders by illegal aliens.

BIDEN-APPROVED INFRASTRUCTURE BILL: MANDATED KILL SWITCHES COMING TO CARS BY 2026

When Joe Biden killed the Keystone XL Pipeline as one of his first acts upon taking office, Republicans loudly objected that doing so would damage the American economy and cost thousands of jobs, even as the U.S. was struggling to overcome a global pandemic. Biden, bowing to the radical environmentalist Left, eliminated the pipeline with the stroke of a pen, while ridiculously asserting that any jobs lost would only be temporary and that the green energy sector would quickly make up the difference. Now, two years later, Biden’s Department of Energy is admitting that those jobs lost ended up being more significant and the economic cost higher than Biden had so rosily asserted at the time. The DOE found that killing Keystone XL resulted in 59,000 lost jobs and cost the U.S. economy $9.6 billion in growth. “To make matters worse,” observed Senator Jim Risch (R-ID), “his decision moved the U.S. further away from energy independence and lower gas prices at a time when inflation and gas prices are drastically impacting Americans’ pocketbooks.” Americans are still experiencing the negative consequences of Biden’s killing of Keystone, which made Russia’s invasion of Ukraine that much more costly for the U.S. With Donald Trump, the country finally enjoyed energy independence, but Biden foolishly decided to reverse course on that stunning success. 

Keeping planes in the air has taken a back seat at the Federal Aviation Administration as the agency pivots its focus to diversity, equity, and inclusion under the leadership of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. 

 THAT IS ALL...

 

OUR NEW YEAR 2023

I saw a Bald Eagle flying down Rt 114 by the Goffstown water dept along the river on Monday Jan 2nd.

Saw one of the bunnies Tuesday evening, so they're still here.

Picture from New Years Day early morning

January 7th morning, Early Mist...

Bluebirds - We have 5 or so Bluebirds out back every morning around 9:30am, I purchased a bag of mealworms, they don't seem overly excited about them.  The Bluebirds are checking out all the field birdhouses, one inside, one on top.  They appear to be gathering mud and grass and then flying into the houses.

Over $800 to top up to 3/4s of a tank of oil, yikes...

Tucson battery was dead...  we left the back trunk open just a bit, it looked closed but apparently not quite,  Rose went to open the doors on Monday and it wouldn't open, electronic locks, she grabbed my keys and opened the door, no dome light, completely dead.  It charged back up fine...  Oh what fun.

Hopes and dreams

• Maybe a garden in 2023
• Build a deck in the back yard to help keep the mud (so much mud) from the dogs outside the house.
• Staying healthy
• More to come
  

 

COVID-19

COVID-19 was about as deadly as a bad flu, according to a study recently published in Environmental Research.

Stanford University professor of medicine and epidemiology John P.A. Ioannidis and four fellow researchers analyzed the pre-vaccination infection fatality rate (IFR) in 38 countries. The study, “Age-stratified infection fatality rate of COVID-19 in the non-elderly population” reported,

“At a global level, pre-vaccination IFR may have been as low as 0.03% and 0.07% for 0–59 and 0–69 year old people, respectively.

“These IFR estimates in non-elderly populations are lower than previous calculations had suggested.”

IFRs for age brackets could also be found for 31 of the 38 countries, the stats reading as follows:

· 0-19 years: 0.0003%

· 20-29 years: 0.002%

· 30-39 years: 0.11%

· 40-49 years: 0.035%

· 50-59 years: 0.123%

· 60-69 years: 0.506%

OUR POLITICAL MESS

Biden’s dereliction on the border is an actual impeachable offense. His lawlessness is a disgrace and threat to our nation, an offense to the office he holds, and a violation of his oath to “support and defend” our Constitution. He should be removed from office for it.

Interest payments on the national debt (US) are up 36% over LY YTD, which was up 16% over the year before. In total we are up almost 60% over two years ago.
We are currently trending over $800 Billion which is almost $250 billion over LY "The Congressional Budget Office’s interest-cost projections, issued in May, predicted a rise of $43 billion in interest costs for fiscal year 2023 compared with 2022".

We just witnessed the largest one day drop in the Baltic Dry Index since 1984.  Baltic Dry Good Index is a measure of global shipping and economic health. The overall index, which tracks rates for capesize, panamax, and supramax shipping vessels carrying dry bulk commodities, plunged 17.5% to $1,250, the most significant daily decline since 1984.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/10/13/debt-interest-rates/

With that in mind, here are 10 things that the powers-that-be in D.C. have yet to cop to, but which will soon be impossible to ignore, in no particular order:

1. The role that the intel community and the Justice Department played in fomenting violence through psy-ops on Jan. 6, 2021, will be exposed.  Sadly, in their expected counter-investigation responding to the Pelosi-run Jan. 6 committee, even House Republicans may withhold state secrets from us. But the FBI’s damaging partisan conduct has generated a multitude of whistleblowing defectors who should be willing to shed light on the dubious allegations of right-wing extremism and violence at the U.S. Capitol—and in the 2017 Charlottesville riot that was its dress rehearsal.
2. The deadly impact of the COVID vaccines will become undeniable. Initially, I had considered writing about how the GOP House will expose Anthony Fauci’s role in developing the COVID-19 virus, but that already has been scrutinized to death, and without any accountability to back it up, it makes no difference. But there are plenty of other COVID abuses that will keep on yielding new storylines. And none may be greater than the decision by pharmaceutical companies to suppress therapeutics and overplay the importance of their untested and experimental new vaccines. The evidence is mounting that the vaccines themselves may have been as deadly and damaging as the virus—something to which many life-insurance actuaries may be able to attest. Whether the vaccines do, indeed, have nanobots that self-assemble and transmit wi-fi, there is a lot of reason to suspect that they are harmful on some level.
3. The scope of China’s control over the U.S. government will become clearer. We know about the various financial ties between the Biden family and the CCP. We know that other top leaders, including Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell are heavily invested in Chinese industry. But what we have yet to fully explore is the way that China-linked companies like BlackRock have also completely infiltrated the White House and are effectively writing U.S. foreign policy.
4. The true nature of David DePape’s relationship with Paul Pelosi will be revealed. While court hearings have kept a tight lid on the evidence in the Paul Pelosi assault case, including body-cam footage, it will be harder for Nancy Pelosi to flex her authority after stepping down as House speaker. It is very clear that the assailant, David DePape, is no right-wing extremist and that there is more going on that meets the eye.
5. We will find out what Trump’s purloined Mar-a-Lago files really contained. Punting the DOJ probes that resulted in the unprecedented raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort to corrupt special counsel Jack Smith was a good way to keep them out of the reach of GOP oversight in the U.S. House. But, eventually, the clock will run out and it will be necessary to explain why, exactly, this norm-violating measure was taken. Odds are it was a CYA operation by the FBI to prevent Trump from exposing the Russia-hoax documents that he already had publicly declared to be declassified.
6. We will learn what the Democrats intend to do with Joe Biden and who will be tapped to replace him. Will it be Michelle Obama, as I and others have long predicted? Or could they pull out another yet-unknown figure who has been carfully vetted and groomed in secret, like her husband, Barack? Once the Democrats finally decide that Biden has outlasted his usefulness, their reasons for installing him in the first place may become clear. When Barack Obama was overheard telling a Democrat donor “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f**k things up,” there is a good chance it was a sales pitch more than a warning.
7. We will discover the truth about the U.S.–Ukrainian partnership to research and develop bioweapons. Congress has allocated in excess of $100 billion to defend something in Ukraine, but it sure ain’t democracy. While their personal investments in Burisma—or in weapons manufacturers like Raytheon—may be prime motivators, all indications are that the country is a rat’s nest of CIA operations.
8. The Left’s plans to normalize and mainstream pedophilia will come to fruition. The initial push to sexualize and groom children in schools and on kid-friendly mediums like Disney may have fallen flat, but leftists will only redouble their efforts to foist this onto the population because the ability to control and manipulate young minds is pivotal to their long-term plans for control. By acclimating children to sex at an early age, they can add it as another weapon in their quiver, which also includes cultivating ignorance and racial grievances, so that the plebian class is as pliable as possible.
9. The World Economic Forum will lead the way in trying to turn humans into glorified Matrix-style batteries. The convergence of artificial intelligence technology, the metaverse, the decline of office culture, growing clamor about digital passports and currencies, guaranteed incomes and an ever-increasing scarcity of resources suggest that the global plans to collectivize all nations under a one-world government are being gamed out as we speak.
10. As the relationship between Big Tech and the spy agencies becomes clearer, we will learn that our personal devices are tracking our every move. Knowing what we know about the interest that the FBI and the CIA have in manipulating technology companies to perform extralegal operations, and what we know about the reprehensible virtue signaling of Google and Apple, is there really any doubt that they have empowered our intel community to conduct warrantless domestic surveillance from any device at any time and that our phones are being used to monitor us, in true Big Brother fashion, around the clock?

 That is all...

Another Year comes to an end!

Another Year comes to an end!

2023 should be an interesting year!

I got my first seed catalog of 2023 yesterday. We're not sure we'll put in a garden this year.

Our water level in the pond that indicates well water level is looking great, all this rain we've been getting is helping!

Rose and I celebrated our Anniversary on New Years Eve!  Jarrod, Crystal, James and Mon & Dad came over for dinner, Jarrod cooked an awesome lamb, Rose made a turkey pie that was great too.  We all exchanged gifts, Dad got me a portable handheld chainsaw, so cool, this'll come in handy in the spring with yard cleanup and pruning!

Sunday is a day of rest for us, go, go, go has been catching up to us, we are feeling better, still congested and have a persistent cough though.

Think about that $5.49 a dozen now. Just over two years ago, you were paying less than 10 cents for an egg. You could make yourself a large breakfast omelet with five eggs for half a dollar.

Now you're paying $2-$3 for the same thing.

Heck, just a few years ago, you could get a pretty large omelet at Waffle House of Denny's for three bucks! Those were good times. Too bad Joe Biden had to build us back "better."

 

 

 

 

OUR POLITICAL MESS...

“Ultimately, the Democratic Party is a criminal organization; and to support it is to be a criminal. And since it is the ruling party, unless you oppose it, you support it.”

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! List of taxes going up and hitting all Americans in 2023

One third of world economy expected to be in recession in 2023, says IMF chief

BREAKING: Supreme Court Hears Case Challenging 2020 Election Procedure – Claims 388 Lawmakers Violated Their Oath, And Asks For Their Removal From Office, Kamala Harris & Mike Pence Are Both Named As Defendants

The world is burning all around us.  Just when I thought things in this country were actually starting to turn around after the disastrous eight years of the Obama Administration, I learned along with you all that the Deep State in all it’s ugly forms cannot be rooted out.

Crazies are running the world. America is burning.  The lawless have seized control of our streets.  The pandemic that gripped our nation months ago seems to matter no more.

MSM Admits: Most COVID Deaths Are Among The Vaccinated

 

And let me be the first to offer  radicals my direct quote: 

“Kiss my unwoke ass.”

It'll take time, but eventually everyone will figure out that this whole 'EV' thing is bullshit and will never work...    

After years of Dem's foaming at the mouth over Trump’s tax returns, they’re here. And there’s nothing. Once Again...

"Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity."

Son of a Nazi, Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum has declared that people have no right to own their own car and can instead “walk or share.” According to the World Economic Forum, far too many people own their own vehicles and this situation must be corrected by pricing them out of the market.

Daily, we see the dictatorial moves by Biden and his administration.  We view the tears of those at the southern border who fear for their lives and property.  As the illegals surge into the country, sexual exploitation, human trafficking, crime, rampant drug use, violence, disease, death, and soul-searing fear continue to suffocate Americans.

As predictable as a Hallmark Christmas movie. https://t.co/AC3eK7zB9i

“The Democrats should have never done it, the Supreme Court should have never approved it, and it’s going to lead to horrible things for so many people.“

So much for the Supreme Court. But since they’ve done it, let’s start with examinations of the returns of FJB and his devil’s spawn, Pelosi, Schumer, Waters, and Shiff.

We’re at war folks – against our own country … it’s just the shootings and MAGA round-ups haven’t started yet. I’d be surprised if some form of martial law is not imposed in the coming year.
For our safety of course … and to protect “democracy”.

I'm sure he read and understood them all too! LOL

There is a growing consensus that 2023 is going to be a miserable year for the U.S. economy and for the global economy as a whole.  In fact, in all the years that I have been writing I have never seen so many big names on Wall Street be so incredibly pessimistic about the coming year.  Of course much of that pessimism is due to the fact that 2022 went so poorly.  The cryptocurrency industry imploded, trillions of dollars in stock market wealth evaporated, inflation became a major problem all over the industrialized world, and a new housing crash suddenly erupted.  Considering all of the pain that we have experienced over the past 12 months, it is only natural for the experts to have a negative view of 2023.  The following are 11 ominous warnings that they have issued for the year ahead…

#1 The IMF: “We expect one-third of the world economy to be in recession. Even countries that are not in recession, it would feel like recession for hundreds of millions of people”

#2 Bloomberg: “Economists say there is a 7-in-10 likelihood that the US economy will sink into a recession next year, slashing demand forecasts and trimming inflation projections in the wake of massive interest-rate hikes by the Federal Reserve.”

#3 The World Bank: “As central banks across the world simultaneously hike interest rates in response to inflation, the world may be edging toward a global recession in 2023 and a string of financial crises in emerging market and developing economies that would do them lasting harm, according to a comprehensive new study by the World Bank.”

#4 Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan: “We’re going to have a shallow recession”

#5 Mohamed El-Erian: “Many ‘high-conviction’ U.S. recession calls are immediately coupled with the assertion that it’ll be ‘short and shallow.’ Reminds me of the behavioral trap ‘transitory inflation’ proponents fell into last year”

#6 Nouriel Roubini: “No, this is not going to be a short and shallow recession, it’s going to be deep and protracted”

#7 Larry Summers: “My sense is that it’s much harder than many people think to achieve a soft landing”

#8 Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon: “Economic growth is slowing,” Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon said at the same conference. “When I talk to our clients, they sound extremely cautious.”

#9 Charles Schwab & Co.’s Liz Ann Sonders: “We have to take our medicine still, meaning a weaker economy and a weaker labor market. The question is, is it better to take our medicine sooner or later?”

#10 BlackRock: “Central bankers won’t ride to the rescue when growth slows in this new regime, contrary to what investors have come to expect. They are deliberately causing recessions by overtightening policy to try to rein in inflation”

#11 Michael Burry: “Inflation peaked. But it is not the last peak of this cycle. We are likely to see CPI lower, possibly negative in 2H 2023, and the US in recession by any definition. Fed will cut and government will stimulate. And we will have another inflation spike. It’s not hard.”

As you can see, there is a general consensus that things will be bad in 2023, but there is disagreement about just how deep the coming economic downturn will turn out to be.

If the worst of these forecasts turn out to be accurate, that will actually be incredibly good news.

Because the reality of what we will be facing in 2023 is likely to be significantly worse than any of these experts are currently projecting.

With each passing day, we continue to get even more numbers that indicate that big trouble is ahead.

For example, we just learned that luxury home sales absolutely cratered during the months of September, October and November…

Sales of luxury homes fell 38.1% year over year during the three months ending November 30, 2022, the biggest decline on record, according to a new report from Redfin, a technology-powered real estate brokerage. That outpaced the record 31.4% decline in sales of non-luxury homes. Redfin’s data goes back to 2012.

The luxury market and the overall housing market lost momentum in 2022 due to many of the same factors: inflation, relatively high interest rates, a sagging stock market and recession fears.

We haven’t seen anything like this since 2008.

And we all remember what the housing crash of 2008 ultimately did to the financial markets.

Normally, the beginning of a calendar year is a time for optimism.  As we look forward to a completely clean slate, it can be easy to forget the difficulties of the previous 12 months.

But this year things seem completely different.

On some level, just about everyone can feel that very challenging times are ahead of us.

Decades of very foolish decisions are starting to catch up with us in a major way.

Our leaders tried very hard to keep the party going for as long as possible, and to a certain extent they were quite successful in doing so.

Our politicians in Washington kept borrowing and spending trillions upon trillions of dollars that we did not have, and that definitely delayed our day of reckoning.

And the Federal Reserve kept the financial markets artificially propped up for years by endlessly pumping giant mountains of fresh cash into the system.

But such foolish measures only made our long-term problems even worse, and now our leaders are losing control.

All of the “mega-bubbles” are starting to burst, and the system is beginning to fall apart all around us.

It is time to turn out the lights, because the party is over.

We all had a lot of fun while it lasted, but now the bill is due and an extraordinary amount of pain is ahead.

 

THE COVID NIGHTMARE EVOLVES

Confidential Pfizer and Government Docs Confirm ADE, VAED, and AIDS From COVID Shots

There’s a new variant spreading, called XBB.1.5.

Experts have nicknamed it the Kraken.

You have no idea what Covid will do to you. Even if you feel fine, it could be slowly killing you, and you wouldn’t even know.

That’s the disturbing truth.

Most of us aren’t infectious disease experts, but we have street smarts. When the lab analysts call something the Kraken, you should stay as far away from it as you can.

Meanwhile, the Swine flue vaccine was halted in 1976 after only 1 in 100,000 serious adverse events.

And the Rotavirus vaccine called Rotashield was pulled in 1999 after data found 1 to 2 serious events per 10,000 vaccines.

So why is the experimental COVID-19 mRNA shot still being lauded by the establishment as safe and effective when the publicly available data clearly shows that’s not the case?

A new Omicron subvariant is taking over in the United States according to mainstream media and health “experts.” It’s called XBB 1.5 and is making up 44% of the COVID-19 cases in the U.S.

A recent article published in the Wall Street Journal suggested that the Covid outbreak heavily affected most vaccinated people. More and more research points to the possibility that repeated vaccinations make people more vulnerable to XBB and contribute to the rapid evolution of the virus.
