I understand your position on local and American made products and agree. However, markets dictate price. Americans voted with their wallets long ago, hence the manufacturing base shifting east. In other words, there are products that you a) legitimately can no longer source in America or b) not competitively priced. I know the owner of Black…[Read more]

Interesting if true. I see that the article was first posted in the Epoch Times. To me, this raises my suspicion a bit. Epoch Times is owned by NEW TANG DYNASTY, which was founded in 2001 by “Falun Gong” practitioners and based in NYC. In short, it could easily be propaganda aimed at pro-democracy movement in main land china whilst simultaneously…[Read more]

I don’t watch MSM, but I’m guessing that there is a bit of a blackout on this story. I’ve always enjoyed Abby’s work. A dangerous game she’s playing, but she’s no fool. I look forward to watching this play out.
Edit: With so much noise coming from the squawk box and an election cycle not even into its stride yet, the likelihood of this story…[Read more]

IMO, and I could be wrong, this is a coincidence and another one of those convenient truths that allow a narrative to either a) play out or b) BE played out. Allow me to explain…

Time will tell. We should all support our local businesses and industries, whether they are online or not. A massive market correction is inevitable once cheap imports are are no longer available.
-
We also need to look at where our weaknesses are with regard to medical supplies and medicines which have been coming from China and, in the name of national security, support US companies.

Most interesting.
It will be hard to sift through the economic data points and the state-controlled media meme’s (meaning western media) to get a clear snapshot of the true state of China.
-
True, though things like international shipping statistics may be hard to fudge. When production slows down, order backlogs will grow and industry and wholesalers worldwide will start complaining, after which consequences on the retail level will be felt. The shortage could continue – just speculating here – for a couple of years, so a lot of…[Read more]

I see this as a trial balloon. If TPTB, are able to push this through without blowback, stay tuned for more states to follow. Ironic, as I recall, Virginia was once a leader in the art of revolting and put up some impressive numbers as far as the good old tar and feathering go. Is it wrong that I long to see a sobbing political lemming speaking on…[Read more]

What’s worse, I copy/pasted his wiki months ago on another forum. It was clear to me then that his resume suggested he was “groomed” and would likely receive favor from the gatekeepers. I was surprised (not) that his wiki profile was scrubbed and the fromer version is nowhere to be found. Here’s the highlights, again, copy/paste:

Daniel commented on this on Twitter. He said its a first. DJ members still apparently have access to the full episode, as it’s on their servers. That’s all I really know about it at the moment.

… check again … original length showing 3 hours 7 mins 55 sec. View length is 1 hour 59 mins 59 secs. The video abruptly begins at roughly the 1 hour in mark. Hmmmmmm. Makes one wonder what was in the first hour now doesn’t it?

If I remember correctly, the Star Trek logo was drawn from the NASA logo of the time. The Roscosmos logo is also similar. I’m not an Astro scholar, I’m wondering if there is any meaning to the constellations on the new logo?

I loaned my mother my copy of the Franklin Coverup about a week ago. I went to my parents house today and she gave it back saying she doesn’t think she’ll read it. My dad, being the internet commando he is, asked me “if I’d ever Googled that book.” He wen’t on to tell me how the internet says its fake and was put out to generate a buzz for profit.…[Read more]

Sadly, lots of people just take the blue pill. And then feel very, very indignant when, say, their neighbour’s child disappears, their property burned or their pension cancelled….

I started to read it, it was too much. I set it aside. Then I said to myself, do it ‘conned’, these kids deserve to b heard! I read it, tissue at hand. I loaned it to a friend. She never read it. I asked for it back. I’m ambivalent about it. I kind of think it deserves to be put in some holy place in my home. I didn’t do that though. I need th…[Read more]

Amen Conned. I have that book and did not make it through the whole thing (which is not like me). Perhaps I should follow your honorable example. Be well.

One of the many interesting comments w/in the Saker post linked above:
The big problem is that the real response by Iran might not even matter.
My fear is that the US did chose the place to murder Soleimani very deliberately. To kill him in Baghdad could be part of a very sinister plan.
It is virtually guaranteed that this will spark outrage and…[Read more] - Load More
I knew it was Falung Gong but i reasoned Falun Gong is a designated enemy of Chinese communist party may
have their very “right reason” to post the speech if it was secret. So it can be propaganda either way or both we simply dont know, as Sun Tzu said in his book its all about deceit and deception.
