Iranian here with another pro tip for anyone who's not from the Middle East.  

When a Muslim country says Merry Christmas but a Christian country won't, you're watching civilizational suicide in real time.  Here's an example of how upside down the West has actually become.  The United Arab Emirates, a Muslim country that is governed by Islamic law, culture, and tradition openly wishes Christians a Merry Christmas.  Even their government owned airline put out a Christmas message wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.  Meanwhile, in France, a country whose entire civilization is built on Christianity, their airline wished everyone a "Happy Holiday Season."  The UAE has no problem acknowledging Christmas because it knows exactly who it is and it doesn't feel threatened by Christianity. Meanwhile, Western countries seem to be so afraid of offending someone that they are literally erasing their identity, culture, and history in real time.  No Muslim country is abolishing Ramadan in order to make Christians feel comfortable.  So why are Western countries abolishing Christmas in order to make others feel comfortable?  And once a civilization becomes uncomfortable with itself, it doesn't need to be conquered.  It self-destructs. And now you know

Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss has an dire warning about Democrats “We're not dealing with a load of social Democrats who just want to raise taxes a bit and spend more on public spending. We're dealing with people who want to destroy Western civilization. This is what their aims are.” “You just can't win. And this is what Donald Trump understands, perhaps uniquely in the Western world. I think there are others who have taken on the deep state. You might point to Victor Orban, you might point to Bukele or Melaye. But really, Donald Trump to me is the playbook of how you need to behave because a lot of people in politics think Because it was the case in the 70s, 80s, that you could reason with the opposition, you could find a compromise, you could be bipartisan, you could persuade people, you could sell it in the media, you could roll the pitch, that that strategy can be adopted now. And I think they're wrong because the opposition have changed. We're not dealing with a load of social democrats who just want to raise taxes a bit and spend more on public spending. We're dealing with people who want to destroy Western civilization. This is what their aims are.” Again, this is from the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

Because I think the West has disintegrated.  It's the greatest civilization the world has ever produced, and I think it is dying.  Take a look at what happened from the day, for example, that my father was born in 1905. Western Empires controlled the entire world with the addition of Japan and Asia, six or seven countries, America included, controlled the entire world. We went through two world wars that carried off something like 100 million people most of them Western peoples.  And as a consequence, I think all these Western nations they all lost their Empires.  Almost all has lost their armies and navies.  They have lost their basic fundamental Christian faith, certainly Europe.  The Pope says that it's "a desert of godlessness."  And as they have lost that, their culture has begun to disintegrate and the people have begun to die.  There's not a single Western nation whose native-born population has a birth rate that will enable it to stay in its present form through this century.  Take a country like Italy.  It's got a birth rate each new generation is 1/3 smaller than the last. Russia is going to lose 25 million people between now and 2050.  It's already lost 10 million since Independence Day in 1990. Japan is going to lose 25 million people.  You go down there . . . based on fertility records that go back when the Nations began to die basically the mid-1970s.  So I think you're going to see the West and its peoples shrink as a percentage of world population.  All of them, I think, will be predominantly, in terms of their population by the end of the century, folks, from the third world and from different cultures and civilizations.  And the idea that they're going to preserve Western culture and civilization, I think, is really putting hope over experience.

Silver now at $77.00/oz.

Silver now at $77.00/oz. 

from APMEX.

12:15.  You've got multiple claims on metal, otherwise they'd be f*cking doing business and selling it at $82.  They're shut down.  Why do you think JP Morgan is moving to Singapore?  Why do you think JP Morgan took metal off the market in COMEX?  Why do you think all of this metal is coming from Latin America into the US?  Why do you think?  I'm going to get into that into much more detail with Eric who really tied a couple of pieces together that I missed.

12:45.  Keep in mind, all of this is happening that we described while the Middle East readies a tokenized silver product.  US has listed silver as critical. Russia has begun buying silver for its balance sheet.  And Indians are now permitted not to sell their silver instead use it as collateral for money.  Every nation on Earth is now protecting its critical minerals, and silver is the most undervalued asset on Earth.  This is no bubble.  This is silver exiting a crater and capital controls and rationing will stop it.

13:18.  Finally, remember that in the US, 401ks will be eligible for metals in February, and China's restriction of all imports goes into effect in January.

13:28.  So let's move on to the price action which is secondary to everything we've been talking about.  Okay, so we're trading $4,530.  Price doesn't matter. Nations have been printing money for the last 2 years to buy metal and the cat is getting out of the bag now.  China does this . . . I don't want to give too much away what Eric and I are going to talk about, but this is the behavior of China in base metals coming to precious metals.  And this is London closed for business.  Tom Luongo is going to love that.

15:05.  I'm telling you guys it's happening.  For the last 30 years, the precious metal market has been forced to become a financial market and they've dissuaded people from owning metal.  "You don't need it.  Just short the dollar if you're bullish gold.  You don't need the silver.  You can use something else."  And now Asia and the BRICS have said, "No.  We want the metal because you guys aren't trustworthy on the dollars anymore.  Gold doesn't care, and silver is right behind it in terms of counterparty risk.  And guess what, the bullion banks in London and the LBMA for decades have been treating silver like a purely financial product when there is no silver to borrow anymore.  It's over, okay.  The world is split.  I'm Vince.  Have a good day.

Okay, so diseases are not a function of viruses or bacteria, but a function of the breakdown of a cell.  Breakdown of a cell can be seen to be similar or identical in terms of symptoms, like Measles symptoms, for example.  So what cells break down under measles?  Or what cells break down under scarlet fever to produce those symptoms which are different from chicken pox, different from Gonorrhea, and so forth? 

In our award-winning* series "Back to BS", we trace the roots of today's pseudoscience called virology all the way back to its source: John F Enders.

SIGHTBRINGER: For 40 years, the Fed’s real power has not been rates. It has been legitimacy. Trump is tearing that membrane.

This is Trump rejecting the idea that unelected institutions should be allowed to suppress national growth to preserve theoretical stability. He is choosing volatility over stagnation. Momentum over control. Power over process. That path creates booms. 

It also creates fractures. --SIGHTBRINGER

— Tom Luongo (Head Sneetch) (@TFL1728) December 24, 2025

What you are seeing is a direct assault on the post-Volcker monetary regime. And it is intentional. This is a signal. Here is the structure underneath it. 1. Trump is openly breaking the Fed’s myth of neutrality For forty years, the Fed’s real power has not been rates. It has been legitimacy. The belief that: • monetary policy is technocratic • markets are managed by experts • politics stops at the Fed door Trump is tearing that membrane. By saying “anyone who disagrees with me will never be Fed Chair,” he is doing something far more disruptive than threatening independence. He is declaring that the Fed is already political. He is just willing to say it out loud. Once that happens, the spell is broken. 2. He is reframing markets as a political instrument, not a natural force Trump’s core claim is simple. Markets are behaviorally managed systems. They respond to incentives. They respond to fear. They respond to rate expectations. When good economic data causes markets to sell off, it reveals something rotten in the system. That rot is rate repression logic: • growth triggers tightening • success gets punished • expansion is capped preemptively Trump is rejecting that logic entirely. He wants markets rewarded for strength. He wants inflation managed after growth, not before it. He wants risk-taking restored as a national objective. This is a return to explicit growth primacy. 3. This is a regime shift toward fiscal dominance, openly stated The old model was: • Fed first • Treasury adapts • markets price policy restraint The new model Trump is pushing is: • growth first • markets absorb volatility • Fed follows the political mandate That is fiscal dominance without euphemism. Rates become a tool. Markets become a scoreboard. GDP becomes the legitimacy engine. This is how emerging powers behave. Trump is attempting it inside a reserve currency system. That is explosive. 4. The real target is time, not inflation Trump is obsessed with one thing he never names directly. Time. High rates stretch time. They delay investment. They freeze projects. They slow capital velocity. Trump wants to compress time. He wants projects funded now. Markets moving now. GDP compounding now. This aligns perfectly with the broader acceleration era: • AI compresses development cycles • capital rotates faster • political patience collapses • long-term credibility matters less than short-term momentum In that world, a central bank designed for slow decades becomes a liability. 5. This increases tail risk across every asset class If Trump succeeds, here is what follows: • higher inflation tolerance • higher equity volatility • steeper yield curves • weaker long-end bond credibility • stronger real assets • capital flight into things the Fed cannot print Gold. Bitcoin. Equities with pricing power. Anything tied to growth velocity. The Fed becomes reactive. Markets become political. Risk becomes explicit. No more adult supervision theater. The real truth: This is Trump rejecting the idea that unelected institutions should be allowed to suppress national growth to preserve theoretical stability. He is choosing volatility over stagnation. Momentum over control. Power over process. That path creates booms. It also creates fractures. But once a country decides that growth is a political mandate rather than a monetary byproduct, there is no going back. The system changes character. And everyone holding “safe” assets needs to understand what that actually means now.

Preferred targets sit in the middle—large enough to matter, small enough to stay below the radar. The Party does not want heroes. It wants conduits.

Inside the Machine: A Rare Recording Reveals How the CCP Recruits Influencers https://youtu.be/rV7JFmz6Ca0?si=F8UiPwok2rE8VKI- A Chinese YouTuber with roughly 350,000 subscribers in the military-affairs space recently released a recording of a conversation with a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) recruiter. The audio offers a rare, unfiltered look into how China’s overseas influence campaigns actually operate. This is not the old model of “external propaganda”—no slogans, no red banners, no embassy tweets. What emerges instead is a market-driven influence operation built on a simple premise: credibility is scarce, and the Party is willing to pay for it. 1. WHO THE CCP RECRUITS AND WHY The recruiter describes a system that resembles risk-managed talent acquisition more than political vetting. The goal is influence that is useful, controllable, and durable. The Goldilocks Rule: Influence Without Exposure The CCP’s first rule is blunt: avoid obvious targets. High-profile dissident influencers—such as Wang Zhian (YouTube), Li Laoshi “Not Your Teacher” (X), Wen Zhao (YouTube), and Toronto Fanglian (YouTube)—are ruled out. Not because they criticize the CCP, but because they are already “tagged”: •too visible •too aggressively critical •too politically exposed •too difficult to manage Preferred targets sit in the middle—large enough to matter, small enough to stay below the radar. The Party does not want heroes. It wants conduits. Sociology Over Ideology The talent pool described is sociological rather than political: •Italy-based music influencers •Japan-based food YouTubers •Philadelphia-based blue-collar and car-mechanic creators This is not a political influencer program. It is a social penetration strategy, distributing influence quietly through everyday trust networks. The Party does not need admiration. It seeks to gently steer opinion. 2. METHODOLOGY: GENTLENESS AS A WEAPON Invisible, Long-Term Discipline The guiding principle is low-visibility persistence—“润物细无声” gentle rain moist everything, not sudden impact: •no abrupt tonal shifts •no one-off campaigns •no visible coordination The objective is endurance. Limited Criticism, Strategic Assistance •minor criticism of the Party is allowed •policy complaints are acceptable •one red line is absolute: no direct attacks on Xi Jinping Controlled dissent builds credibility. Excess dissent disqualifies. In the platform era, influence must be indistinguishable from independent commentary. 3. MONEY—AND THE UNSPOKEN INCENTIVE The financial structure is explicit: €40,000 per month, with a 30 percent cut for the recruiter. Money is only half the leverage. The recruiter also hints at reduced harassment of family members inside China—being “on the list rather than outside it.” He insists this is not a threat. It simply describes the environment. In such a system, cooperation functions like an insurance premium—paid quietly. 4. THE MODERN CCP INFLUENCE MODEL One line captures the logic: “The Party-state looks at the numbers.” Not belief. Not loyalty. Metrics. Views. Reach. Narratives that travel without fingerprints. Traditional propaganda is abandoned because it is too obvious. The modern preference is for ambiguity, credible messengers, cultural entry points, and erosion rather than persuasion. The goal is not conversion. It is drift. CONCLUSION

What makes this transcript unsettling is not its brazenness, but its restraint. The CCP is not trying to win arguments outright. It is content to let doubt accumulate and confidence erode, allowing “neutrality” to do the work slogans once failed to accomplish. Influence here is not about persuasion—it is about drift. And drift, over time, is far harder to see, let alone stop.

00:00.  Who has wanted war so far?  Some European politicians have wanted war, thinking that a country with nuclear weapons can be defeated through a conventional war.  Good luck with that.  Also, those who manufacture weapons always want war or some kind of armed conflict.  These are the arms manufacturers.  And now a 3rd group has appeared: Now the bankers also want you to continue, because, otherwise, how will they get their money back?  They can only recover their money if Russia is defeated militarily.  That is how it all comes together.  So I want to tell everyone not to trust that European politicians are sensible enough not to drag us into a war.  They are not sensible enough for that.  The only ones you can trust are the European people.  You can trust the people in Szeged, in Hungary, in Slovakia, in Croatia, in Italy.  We have to trust the people who will hold similar gatherings.  Let's not be mistaken: so far, this is only happening in Hungary.  In 6 months, there will also be large anti-war gatherings in Germany and in France.  We have to trust that the people will enforce peace from the bottom up.  This is the only thing we can trust.

Oh, and by the way, right here, this in front of me, this is the Maritime Drug Laws Enforcement Act of 1986, authored by a member of Congress in 1986 from the state of New York.  His name: Chuck Schumer.  He wrote the law that passed almost unanimously that makes it legal to blow drug boats out of the water.  It happened in the 80s a lot, 90s a lot.  Go ahead, look it up, folks, Chuck Schumer, the author of this bill that made what we're doing with Venezuela drug boats fully legal.  We don't need permission from the rest of the world.  Chuck Schumer gave us that in 1986.
