The UAE, Russia, China, India, North Korea, and Iran are planning on creating a new financial system to avoid U.S and EU sanctions. And the control of oil sales in dollars. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india…
It's not new but the goal is to get SDNY and sanctions out of the global development and trade market. Will it work? Again it is up to our governments to understand the gravity of the threat. cryptobriefing.com/china-uaes-cen…
This denial of access plan outlined in the #1922Memo extends to the use of supercomputers to game financial markets to controlling the manufacture of chips to the blocking US/EU access to Rare Earth Minerals. The attack on Ukraine was the opening shot. thenationalnews.com/business/futur…
Russia and the Gulf's shift to Eurasia is designed to make NATO and the US/Latin sphere irrelevant, divisive and weakened. Yes it sounds all think tank-ey but its actually kind of gas tank-ey. We are under attack. impakter.com/future-america…
People are target fixated. Bread, Gas, Prices, etc. It affects how we vote and how we think. The Axis of Evil understands that America and Europe have no appetite for swift decapitation of an enemy alliance. That precious time is where the enemy is winning voanews.com/a/new-world-or…
The long buildup to war has begun, again. But America will be divisive, unsure and unfocused on why our quality of life has slipped, why the economy crashed instead of grew, why we feel different about our role in world affairs. All carefully planned out and funded by oil money.
I sit under the Bosphorus Bridge and ponder the gap between east and west. The differences in music, language, history and goals. Some of which we understand from recent conflicts from the Cold War to Afghanistan to Vietnam. Is it a Bridge too Far for America?

Some I purchased The Godfather III rehab. Damn Francis, it is awful. About as awful as "The Offer", series about making The Godfather is good. Al Ruddy I will buy you a drink. Great fun.
Buried in that series is the rock hard truth, not about Italians, but that Hollywood was created and best run by Canadian Jews from the shmatta business.
Both Ruddy and coke elephant Rob Evans worked in the garment business. Jack Warner was in furs, Goldwyn was in gloves..ok so..Canadian Louis B. Mayer was in scrap. Interesting backstories. Great series about the sausage gets made. The Godfather backstory:
2020: “Yevgeniy Prigozhin and his network are exploiting Sudan’s natural resources for personal gain and spreading malign influence around the globe,” said Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin" Mnuchin...hmm the guy who is now $2.5B up in Abu Rassa's business. . home.treasury.gov/news/press-rel…
Wagner, UAE, KSA, Mnuchin, Jared...all love a bargain. There is yet another story to be told. arabnews.com/node/1918666/b…
The avalanche of anger for the inactions or the Uvalde police destroy the "good guy with a gun" argument. However the actions of the federal employees open a terrifying door to "Waco" syndrome. Another right wing trope..against.. the feds use of force. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
A kid murdering kids is a crystal clear situation for action. But federal training on active shooters was ignored or at misinterpreted to create the classic bureaucratic fuckup. The shooter seems to have faded away as the focus fixes on law enforcement.
Unrelated you say? 19 dead children were among 167 killed in Oklahoma in 1995. The feds handling of the '92 Ruby Ridge the 93 Waco siege in 1993 were why Tim McVeigh decided to murder government employees. He explains...theguardian.com/world/2001/may…
seriously tho.. we have so much junk lying around from our other wars.....send it.
The AMARG bone yard is easily one of the most interesting places on the planet. And to think a lot of those old planes were built and flown to counter Soviet aggression. Captain Cal and his Aviation Sales Dog Spot will be serving hot dogs for the kiddies. aviationphotodigest.com/amarg-inventor…
A cautionary tale. In the 19th century Robber Barons used to brand their companies with not only their name but their personality. However today, no one wants to drive a Muskmobile or go to Mars in an Elonship. washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2022…
What if Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Twitter admitted to their stockholders that Russia, China, UAE, KSA...and Trump... posed an existential threat and responding banana republicly? Hiring private armies to defeat tyrants? tabletmag.com/sections/news/…
Musk has publicly taken a stand against Russia and even Putin..he fielded sat coms for Ukraine use only. Let's step it up rich folks. This is your big chance to return to the feudal city state and raise mercenary armies in Europe. Prince Vlad is doing it. medievalists.net/2020/04/john-h…
Feeling Gloomy and Super Bad. Me? I just look at the Elon photo they use to determine what the article is about. Billionaires are buckling up. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…
Elon Musk stories come in "brilliant futurist", "captain of industry", "nerdy nice guy" and "rich asshole" flavor. You can choose by selecting the appropriate head shot. Newest head shot flavor is "delusional spectrum guy" slate.com/business/2022/…
In 2021 pundits were calling bullshit on Elon's Bubble Factory. "Scion Asset Management, pointed to Tesla, GameStop, bitcoin, dogecoin, Robinhood, and the red-hot US housing market as signs of speculative excess." Duh. A Tesla in every Tesla powered garage markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/mi…
