"China cannot safely own western government debt--Europe or America, They're trying to divest from the west because they know war is coming."

You're going to start seeing a lot more countries starting to draft again because they know what's coming.  --Martin Armstrong

7:35  The sanctions against Russia were basically a warning sign against China.  If China goes into Taiwan, why would you want to hold any U.S. government debt because Biden could freeze it and say, "Oh, we're going to seize it, and use it to pay for preparations for Taiwan.  China has been reducing its holdings of long-term debt especially.  They reduced their holdings, particularly since October 2021, and they've been shifting towards gold.  Why?  It's got nothing to do with money supply, inflation, or anything of that nature.  It's the fact that they cannot safely own western government debt--Europe or America.  Because of what they've done to Russia, they can do to anybody.  All of a sudden, why would you own debt of any western country, Australia, Canada, U.S., or Europe, if suddenly the politicians said "Oh, we don't like what you did" and suddenly freeze it?  So that's a completely different motive for buying gold because of inflation or money supply or something like that that you traditionally hear.  So the motive behind the old iron curtain--China and Russia--is completely different than what we have domestically.  So you have to understand that the motives are very, very critical because it doesn't matter to them what the inflation number is or anything of that nature.  They're trying to divest from the west because they know war is coming.  

You have to have reserves.  Gold is at least recognized as official central bank reserves, but the quantities that they've been buying are not that significant from a global monetary perspective.  I was speaking with one central bank, and they're fed up with the European debt.  They can't buy anymore.  They don't want it.  You had Christine Lagard come out saying, "oh, well, the central bank . . . we should come out and be doing climate change bonds," complete insanity.  And you had the fed come out and say, "Ah, we're independent, and we have nothing to do with climate change."  So you have a real conflict going on here.  Among other nations, they're looking at the ECB and saying, "You people are completely out of your minds."  So it makes no sense to hold any EU debt at this stage in the game.  

The war in Ukraine escalates, and that's a direct line of fire right there.  Sweden just issued an order for drafting its citizens.  Belarus did it.  You're going to start seeing a lot more countries starting to draft again because they know what's coming.

You've written the article, "Stirring the Pot for War," Martin Armstrong, January 9, 2023.

"if Putin does not become more aggressive, [the Russian hardliners] may indeed replace him [with a coup] by May and then holy hell will break loose."

Thank you to Martin Armstrong @ Armstrong Economics.   

Washington is wielding its own array of pressures to paint Putin as a loser as Octavian did to Mark Antony. 

If the US hands Zelensky long-range missiles, he will use them to attack mainland Russia and that will begin World War. 

I kept thinking that the war in Ukraine would simply end and the country would be divided.  But it looks like NATO, i.e, the United States, wants war with Russia.  In fact, they want the war to conquer Russia.  Talk about your existential battles.  Martin Armstrong explains.

Russian Navy ships and submarines have suddenly left their base at Novorossiysk, in the Black Sea, en-masse.

This is highly unusual and many fear that this is a change in tactics. The Western Press keeps trying to paint Russia as losing the war so, quite frankly, they can get more people to volunteer to join the military if they think they are on the winning side.  There is no question that the US and Russia are waging the most intense confrontation since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. Our model on that confrontation aligned with our major war model showing that 2014 was the end of that period and the beginning of this new period as we head into World War III.

The hardliners are not happy in Russia and President Vladimir Putin is being pushed into a corner. Either he gets more aggressive, or there could be a coup by May. The hardliners are using nuclear threats and other escalations in what they know is now really a proxy war of the USA and NATO against Russia using Ukraine as the pawn they are willing to sacrifice. NATO troops will not venture in until the last Ukrainian dies on the battlefield.

Washington is wielding its own array of pressures to paint Putin as a loser as Octavian did to Mark Antony. The good news is that, so far, both strategies have been very carefully calibrated. The bad news is that America and Russia are still on a collision course because the end goal is actually to conquer Russia.

Sweden has now escalated its draft. Poland is building its army of up to 250,000 men. All of this is based on the expectation that Ukraine can reduce the Russian army and that will make it a cakewalk to invade Russia and drive tanks from Poland right into Moscow

Sweden was preparing by boosting military spending by around 40% over the five years from 2016 and doubling the numbers conscripted into the armed forces as it looks to beef up its defence amid growing tensions with Russia post-2014. Meanwhile, France, Italy, Latvia and Lithuania scrapped conscription as they concluded that large-scale defence was no longer necessary before 2014, but now they have all reversed policies.

The Joe Biden administration pledged to defend “every inch” of Nato territory. That has complicated matters for Putin to interfere with Ukraine’s supply lines through Romania and Poland. The Western Press keeps pitching the same propaganda that Putin is spiralling toward defeat in Ukraine and may not survive that outcome politically. Yet I know that the hardliners are there and if Putin does not become more aggressive, they may indeed replace him by May and then holy hell will break loose.

Putin is warning Washington as well as Kyiv that attacks on those territories are tantamount to attacks on Russia itself. The Biden administration has opted not to listen to anything from Putin and only seeks war instructing Zelensky to sacrifice his own people and to reject any peace talks whatsoever. If the US hands Zelensky long-range missiles, he will use them to attack mainland Russia and that will begin World War.

EVERY President throughout my entire life has always sought peace. The Biden Administration and NATO only talk about pushing war. NEVER have I ever witnessed such irresponsible leadership for . . .  "Climate Change."

Eva Bartlett on the ground in Ukraine

The interview is from May 29, 2022, so only 3 months into the war.  But if you're looking for an accurate assessment of the conflict in Ukraine, this, though dated, is quite good.  Clayton Morris is the host, and Eva Bartlett is the guest from Ukraine.  At the 29:00 mark, she mentions Andrei Martyanov as a source for Russian military capabilities.

MARTIN ARMSTRONG: "we are looking at the absolute vile corruption of Republican forms of government."

See Alabama Congressman, Republican, Christian, 59-year-old Mike Rogers lunge at Matt Gaetz after Gaetz announced "Present" only.  Rogers angrily lunged at  Gaetz moments after the Florida lawmaker declared “present” during the 14th round of voting for House speaker.

Martin Armstrong predicts that Republican forms of government will be gone.  So stay tuned for more chaos.  

Kevin McCarthy Wins - But at the Cost of the Nation https://t.co/ItbXpbTSIh

— An Avenging Angel (@aveng_angel) January 7, 2023

Armstrong finishes his article on violence on the House floor with this ominous prediction for the country of the U.S., not just individual states.  

We have reached such a moment in history and the election of Kevin McCarthy spells the doom that we face ahead for the nation is more than just the deep divide between left and right, we are looking at the absolute vile corruption of Republican forms of government. This is why Caesar crossed the Rubicon. Six Waves of 31.4 years from 1856 brings us squarely to our model’s forecast for the total collapse of republican governments – 2044.  

"You can't talk about markets in today's world without talking about geopolitics because they are absolutely and inextricably linked."

 7:52  You can't talk about markets in today's world without talking about geopolitics because they are absolutely and inextricably linked.  We live in politically- predominant markets instead of bank-dominated markets, therefore, the incentives and the wishes of those classes of people drive not only our politics but the valuations in the marketplace.  Years of listening to Marting Armstrong complain, "The world is about capital flow."  Once Tom got that concept and he married it to geopolitics, he understood it quite easily.  It's not like he sees the code behind the matrix, but you have a better shot of decoding that code if you do that analysis as opposed to just hibing yourself off into one discipline: I'm a political analyst.  I'm an economic analyst.  I'm a finance guy.   I look at structured loan products.  No, you have to look at it all.  As Martin Armstrong said he never wanted to be a geopolitical analyst.  I never wanted to be a guy that analyzed credit spreads.  In a million years, did I ever think I'd be a guy watching credit spreads like a hawk.  

The Mafia, CIA, and Jeffrey Epstein Worked Together

Thank you to Martin Armstrong @ Armstrong Economics.

Operation Underworld.  The US government teamed up with Office of Naval Intelligence, ONI,  and Office of Strategic Services, OSS, the precursor to the CIA. 

Jimmy asks "What was the service that organized crime that the U.S. government couldn't do for themselves?"

The mob and the unions wanted intelligence from the dock workers.  The dock workers union was controlled by the mob.  This to me is the most devastating crime against the American worker.  Unions collect dues, enforce values, will tell you how to and who to vote for.  Teachers' unions are some of the worst.  They'll spy on individual members if another member complains about you. Unions are places where you find the worst characters rise to the top, where women become absolute thugs and are prepared to crack heads at a moment's notice.  They may not do it physically or do it themselves but they'll have connections you couldn't imagine.  Women will act like gentle, vulnerable creatures until they make you a target.

Jimmy: So their getting intel on the unions is their way of pushing back on the commies, right?

Whitney: This was back in WWII, so this was about the German saboteurs, this was about the Nazis.  But then you see over time the same sorts of behavior in all sorts of things including working with organized crime and drug cartels. Decades later, like in the 80s, the collusion and collaboration is all justified in the name of anti-communism. 

JFK was sexually blackmailed between being president-elect, November 1960, and his inauguration. Sexual blackmail network was British intelligence and British organized crime who'd recently taken down the government in the UK in the Profumo Affair, 1963.  The 1989 movie, Scandal, starring John Hurt and Joanne Whalley, portrayed this event.  One of the same women who was used in that network was used against JFK.  She was taken over to New York and slept with Kennedy.  Then somehow the CIA allegedly helped her escape back to the UK, and the FBI arrested her and her apparent handler.  Had her client list--sound familiar--bur instead of keeping her client list they destroyed it. The operation didn't work well against Kennedy because of a sloppy cover-up, where Mariella Novotny. She was allowed to leave the country with the apparent help of U.S. intelligence. Cozy relationship between U.S. and British intelligence.  There still is: look ar the west's woke culture and how the MI6 is running geopolitics from the Potomac. Sexual blackmail pops up over and over again in big events and scandals in U.S. history. Epstein was no anomaly, that his behavior.  It's the type of operation perfected by the mob.  This organized crime/intelligence team up.

J. Edgar Hoover, who was America's top law enforcer for decades and decades, he was sexually blackmailed by the mob in the 1930s.  And he never went after organized crime because of that.  That's a matter of record.  Same operation blackmailed Roy Cohn, one of Donald Trump's mentors.  Hoover and Cohn along with mob businessman, Lewis Rosenstiel, were running sexual blackmail operations themselves. Hoover and Cohn joined these operations only after they themselves had been entrapped.  And this involved minors.  J. Edgar Hoover was initially blackmailed by a photo taken of him giving oral sex to his long-time Deputy, Clyde Tolson.  And that was taken by affiliates of Meyer Lansky of the Jewish mob, and later those fell into the hands of James Jesus Angleton, the first counter-intelligence chief of the CIA.  So that's another example of how the mob and the CIA like to share intelligence.  And how the CIA can justify anything, right, in the name of "gathering intelligence."  In the UK, they passed a law recently where intelligence agents or assets can even commit murder or any sort of crime as long as they justify it as "intelligence-gathering activities." This gets brushed under the rug because there's no accountability for U.S. intelligence at all.  In addition to that, you have the Page Boy Scandal in 1982 that was brushed under the rug, where congressmen were caught engaging in sex with Congressional pages who were under age.  And then you have the Franklin Scandal.  [The book I am familiar with is the Franklin Cover-Up: Child Abuse, Satanism, and Murder in Nebraska, John W. De Camp, 2011.] The expert on that is Nick Bryant if you want to learn more.  Bryant's book is titled, The Franklin Scandal: A Story of Powerbrokers, Child Abuse and Betrayal, Nick Bryant, 2009.  It was about was a lobbyist in Washington DC who that was running it, named Craig Spence, nominally a lobbyist, who claimed to have CIA connections and whose partner was a guy named Larry King.  A base in Nebraska would get kids from Nebraska, fly them out to DC and they would basically be raped and assaulted by powerful people.  It's a crazy story.  I'm not the expert on that, but I do include it in the book, of course. . . .

18:00  We covered the Jerry Sandusky, the guy from Penn State who was found to be abusing students.  Jimmy learned that there are networks of these pedophiles, and they have conventions almost, right?  And he would take these boys there to be trafficked there, right?

18:30, Whitney.  Wasn't Louis Freeh, the former FBI Director, involved in some aspect of covering up Sandusky's activities, because he was also later hired by associates of Jeffrey Epstein to intimidate his victims.  He was Clinton's FBI Director.  [and of course, Clinton's on the Jeffrey Epstein flight logs 27 times.]  Epstein helped Clinton set up the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Health Access Initiative.  after more than a decade of Epstein being involved in controversial fundraisers in Clinton Presidential history.   

blackmailed and that was how they were recruited to start blackmailing opponents. Trump didn't release the JFK files on his way out the door because they didn't want him to do it.  So if the CIA allows Tucker Carlson to air an admission by a "closely-connected" source to confirm that Oswald was CIA intel, then it means that the remaining JFK files indict the CIA even further with particular information about how the CIA has sexually blackmailed other noted politicians in sexual blackmail operations for decades. And probably shows how the CIA has become the mob.

Is the United States Coming Undone?

We will be publishing next year a special report on . . . how [the United States] will separate as was the case for every civilization historically. Like the Roman Empire, the United States will separate into three regions [and] to the surprise of many, this will also include Canada

Thank you to Martin Armstrong @ Armstrong Economics.

It is becoming clear[er] day by day why the mainstream media has been so against Elon Musk buying Twitter, for as they say in law enforcement, there is a “Blue Code” where cops do not rat on cops.  The same is true about judges.  Mainstream media is so LEFT it has forgotten how to walk a straight line.  They are no longer the free press – they are propaganda organizations for the takeover of our country, and in the process, they will cause civil war and the collapse of Western culture. The Biden Administration clearly violated the law by telling Twitter to delete photos of Hunter smoking crack cocaine which anyone else would be in prison.

The chaos and confusion behind closed doors at Twitter in the immediate aftermath of the October 2020 surface of Hunter Biden’s Laptop from Hell has exposed that the very top-level execs at Twitter decided to label the New York Post’s story as “hacked material” without any evidence — behind the back of then-CEO and founder Jack Dorsey. Historically, those on the LEFT have always done whatever it takes to win for their very basic philosophy is to dominate society and to shut down all resistance.  [You can't imagine how far they will go to destroy anybody who resists.]

The New York Times called on President Biden to create a “Reality Czar” to shut down all dissent, which they immediately label conspiracy theories without any real investigation.  CNN has called on cable companies to drop Fox News as if everything CNN says is the gospel. We are living in a world where mainstream media has become the enemy of the people pushing a political agenda no different than the New York Times during the 1930s was urging Roosevelt to adopt communism.

New York Times cheered Stalin and constantly reported that this was the way to the future – Stalinism. They seem to be preaching that again with a “Reality Czar” right out of Stalin’s handbook. They are supporting once again this move to a Marxist Utopia. The New York Times hid the truth about Stalin because they were in favor of Communism during the Great Depression. Stalin’s great economic miracle was achieved by taking all the food from Ukraine to pretend Communism was working in Russia causing over 7 million to starve to death. Today, they are cheering World War III to destroy Russia once more in hopes of adopting this Great Reset and imposing upon the world their cancel culture with a one-world government headed by the United Nations.

I strongly recommend you watch the movie, Mr. Jones. This exposes the TRUE STORY of how the New York Times tried to support Communism in the United States back then, with their top journalist, Walter Duranty (1884-1957), who was their main man in Moscow. The New York Times promoted him to be awarded the Pulitzer Prize for reporting on how Communism was Utopia and our future. When Gareth Jones (1905-1935) in March 1933 reported this was all a lie, the truth finally began to appear.

It took the New York Times until 1990 to admit that their reporting covered up the truth about Stalin and the massive starvation in an effort, like Schwab, once again, to sell “equality” as our salvation. The New York Times covered up the more than 7 million people who died of starvation in the Ukraine famine. The New York Times wrote that their reporting on the Russian Revolution constituted “some of the worst reporting to appear in this newspaper.” They never revoked his Pultizer Prize for writing fake news about Stalin.

Homeland Security and the FBI both said that Russia’s hack of the DNC did not involve altering the vote. In fact, it was his own paper that reported on November 25, 2016, “The Obama administration said on Friday that despite Russian attempts to undermine the presidential election, it has concluded that the results “accurately reflect the will of the American people.” So, were four years of stating the Russians put Trump in the White House, not misinformation?

The constant lies the press has spun about Russia invading the US elections in 2016 and manipulations seem intent upon creating war, exactly as took place with the Spanish American War. We have returned to yellow journalism, which is based on sensationalism and crude exaggeration. Pulitzer and Hearst went head to head. I remember grade school history class blaming the Spanish American War on fake news. There is one such story that male Spanish officials were strip-searching American woman tourists in Cuba looking for claimed messages from rebels. This was the front page of Hearst’s newspaper showing what has become known as “yellow journalism” whereby the illustration was by Frederic Remington and published in the New York Journal, on February 12th, 1897.

Hearst’s New York Journal was called out for this fake news by its rival Joseph Pulitzer’s, New York World, reporting that this story was erroneous and its graphically illustrated strip-search of a woman aboard a U.S. passenger steamer was fake. The Journal article was written by Richard Harding Davis, who reported that Spanish authorities boarded the U.S. steamer, the Olivette, as it prepared to leave Havana and searched several passengers for contraband. Among the passengers was a young Cuban woman named Clemencia Arango, whose brother was a leader in the insurgency against Spanish rule. The Journal’s article was ambiguous, implying the woman was strip-searched by men, which was created by the accompanying illustration of Frederic Remington.

The New York World attacked the Journal’s fake news, quoting Arango as denying that men had strip-searched her. That task, she said, had fallen to a matron, or “inspectress.” The Journalist Davis, in a letter to the World, then blamed Frederic Remington for having drawn “an imaginary picture” and insisted his dispatch had not reported that men had conducted the search.

Nevertheless, this story of the strip search discredited the Journal as being unreliable and prone to publishing “fakes” and other thinly documented reports. Welcome to the present where the New York Times and Washington Post seem to be carrying on in the same unreliable manner as well as ABC, CBS, NBC, and of course – CNN.

We will be publishing next year a special report on what the computer is projecting for the Decline and Fall of the United States and how it will separate as was the case for every civilization historically. Like the Roman Empire, the United States will separate into three regions. However, to the surprise of many, this will also include Canada. We will let everyone know when this report is ready.

Biden's IRS Army in Jeopardy?

Thank you to Martin Armstrong @ Armstrong Economics.

Biden’s IRS army of 87,000 new armed recruits is coming under fire by the Republican party. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Sen. Jon Thune (R-SD) are working on a bill that would require Congress to approve IRS spending. Both men also sit on the House-Senate Joint Committee on Taxation. Biden would like to spend $80 billion on his IRS army over the next decade to shake down American taxpayers.

“Our bill will ensure that the IRS is answerable to the American people in how it uses this money and will force it to forfeit funds every day it’s not in compliance,” Grassley said. “If our bill becomes law, the Biden administration’s IRS would have to answer to the American people, not Washington bureaucrats,” Thune added. The American people fund the IRS, and it is only right that they vote on how their money is spent. In fact, they should vote on whether there is a need for the IRS at all.

If the bill passes, the IRS must explain how they use their money every year. Funding to the IRS would be withheld if they failed to comply. If Congress turns red this November, this measure is likely to pass. This would be a great first step in a long overdue overhaul of the entire US tax system, which is designed to be as complex as possible so that the government can squeeze funds out of every citizen.

NBC News Exclusive Interview with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko. 

Putin was selected by Yeltsin BECAUSE he was not a Communist and was moderate. If Putin was a communist, Yeltsin and his family would have been in prison.

Thank you to Martin Armstrong @ Armstrong Economics.  

I feel sorry for you for those who believe the propaganda put out to justify a war that Putin is this madman. Be careful what you believe and wish for. You probably think the government really cares about you and your future. You probably still wear masks driving alone, or even when you sleep, and possibly a condom just in case for good measure.

There are those of us who have REAL contacts and who understand REAL geopolitics and the way governments create wars by filling the minds of their people that there are weapons of mass destruction. Now even a former MI6 agent has come out and said the same thing. You better be careful what you wish for. Putin was selected by Yeltsin BECAUSE he was not a Communist and was moderate. Yeltsin was under siege from the communists who did want to resurrect the USSR and the oligarchs who wanted to strip mine Russia for themselves. If Putin was a communist, Yeltsin and his family would have been in prison.

I have all the declassified documents from the Clinton Administration that CONFIRM that Putin was nothing that the propaganda is all about. He NEVER sought to resurrect the USSR. As far as the KGB, he was never high-ranking and quit in 1991 as soon as Russia fell. All of the comments put out there by John McCain were outright lies. I have the security briefing he read and said the opposite because he was a Neocon who just wanted endless wars.

So you can believe all the BS. They need you to do that to wage war and offer your life on their altar of political agendas. If you think you will be an armchair general and watch this war on CNN, sorry. It will come to a neighborhood near you. I just thank God I am not 18. The future these people want is total insanity. The Weimar Republic in Germany took place because it was a revolution against the imperial government that always waged war. We face the same fate when the people realize this has been a mountain of lies for a political agenda. When Zelensky came to power, he promised peace. He was then instructed by the West that was not acceptable. The West promoted the civil war in Ukraine.

It is the hardliners putting pressure on Putin because he has been “too soft” on Ukraine. Replace Putin and we will get World War III. Zelensky better pack his high-heels in an emergency exit bag. 

The Plot to Seize Russia

This interview is dated but quite good since Martin talks about how Yeltsin handed over Russia to Putin.  This interview comes from Geopolitics and Empire, a terrific website that covers lots of interesting topics.  

A summary of Martin's book which he is handing out to attendees at his next conference can be read here,

Martin Armstrong discusses his new book based on declassified documents where in the 1990s the West, NATO, and Russian oligarchy plotted to seize Moscow, loot Russia, and takeover its natural resources. Yeltsin turned to Putin who was not a communist and is not an oligarch. The Moscow apartment bombings or propaganda surrounding them being a false flag would likely have come from Boris Berezovsky. The Great Reset is basically a debt default and the EU is a disaster that will fall apart. At this point most of the attack on Russia is related to “climate change” and to shut down fossil fuels.

The plot was to seize control of Russia and installing their own man, Boris Berezovsky, and merge it into NATO, turning Russia into a vassal state with Berezovsky as president for life.  Later, he was sorry and wanted to return to Russia and wrote a letter to Putin.  Tell us what's really been going on between east and west . . . 

Yeltsin was being blackmailed from two sides, and his last words to Putin were "Take care of Russia."

Crimea was the origin of the Black Death that killed 50% of Europe

The Kipchaks began to catapult plague-infested corpses over the walls and into the trading post. The disease spread quickly and the Genoese abandoned the outpost.

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; I am impressed with your models and the cycle of war. What has truly astonished many of your readers in Eastern Europe is how you focused on Ukraine and said this is the flash point before anything happened and then you said wait until after the Olympics and then Russia will invade. How did you pick Ukraine to begin with? How is that possible? I assume your contacts even in Russia are beyond what many intelligence agencies are capable of. When you connect the dots, as you say, you were correct on the fall of Communism and even Russia in 1998 that led to the collapse of longterm credit. No wonder the bankers, press, and other analysts hate you. You are always on top of everything as you Americans say.

Best wishes for all you do and your battle against the New York banks and corrupt media.

KA

ANSWER: Thank you. Keep in mind this is but no way my OPINION. Personal opinions are worthless and trying to stand up and pretend your judgment is better than another is stupid for the variables are so complex, when opinion is correct, it is dumb luck. It may appear that I targeted Ukraine out of no where, but indeed Ukraine has a tremendous history and the Crimea is perhaps the most strategic tiny piece of land between Europe and Asia. It has been the breadbasket since ancient times as I wrote recently, but it was the flash point that devastated Europe previously.

There were warnings in the form of rumors that told of a great plague in China and India that killed most of the populations there. The plague made its way to Europe when the Kipchak forces were besieging the Genoese trading post in the Crimea. The Kipchaks began to catapult plague-infested corpses over the walls and into the trading post. The disease spread quickly and the Genoese abandoned the outpost. They sailed back to Europe stopping in Sicily in 1347 taking the Black Death with them. 

Crimea has been the center of historical events for centuries, yet nobody seems to pay much attention to it. It has been settled, resettled, occupied, defended, and invaded perhaps more times than most countries. So from a pure data perspective, what is taking place is nothing new to history. This is all in a database that monitors one action and works out the path of reaction, kind of like plotting the path of a hurricane.

Humans look for patterns in chaos because that's what we're programmed to do. By trying to debunk simulation theory, they actually end up proving it

"$1.1 billion in advanced child tax credits [were sent] to the wrong families. Now, 1.5 million families who received the money “accidentally” will be on the hook to pay it back"

Thank you to Martin Armstrong @ Armstrong Economics.

The calculation errors are titanic.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) continually makes multi-billion-dollar mistakes. The agency “accidentally” sent $1.1 billion in advanced child tax credits to the wrong families. If a private citizen were to make a mistake on their personal taxes, they’d feel the repercussions–especially with Biden’s 87,000 newly appointed and armed agents.

Now 1.5 million families who received the money “accidentally” will be on the hook to pay it back. As if that were not bad enough, the IRS failed to deliver $3.7 billion in tax credits to 4.1 million households! The tax credit was intended as part of the reckless American Rescue Plan to pay families earning under $150,000 annually and single parents earning under $112,500. This was the largest child tax credit in America’s history – basically, people received “free” money at the expense of the taxpayers simply for having children.

This is the same agency that sent countless stimulus checks to people who did not qualify. Even multi-billionaire George Soros received a stimulus check. They even sent out checks totaling over $267 billion to deceased individuals. The IRS also “accidentally” leaked 120,000 personal online files earlier in the month. The agency continually makes major mistakes. Knowing that there will be 87,000 additional agents, armed, working for this failed agency does not put one at ease.

Billboards show what the far-left would like to normalize

Thank you to Martin Armstrong @ Armstrong Economics.

Have you seen any of these billboards or magazine ads? Citizens for Sanity is trolling American Progressives by promoting their woke ideologies to show just how asinine the thinking has become.

These advertisements are clearly parodies, but they show what the far-left would like to normalize. They even call out individual politicians:

ATLANTA, GA 

Thank you, Senator Warnock, for voting to keep violent criminals out of jail. Gang members need to earn a living too.

Thank you, Senator Warnock, for voting to keep violent predators out of jail. Unmasked toddlers are the real criminals.

LAS VEGAS, NV

Thank you, Catherine Cortez Masto, for voting to keep our border open. Drug cartels need all the help they can get.

PHOENIX, AZ

Thank you, Mark Kelly, for voting to keep our borders open. The drugs aren’t going to smuggle themselves.

EPPING, NH

Thank you, Senator Hassan, for voting to keep our border open. Drug cartels need all the help they can get.

PHILADELPHIA, PA

Thank you, John Fetterman, for fighting to keep violent criminals out of jail. Gang members need to earn a living too.

MIAMI, FL 

Thank you, Val Demings, for fighting to keep violent criminals out of jail.

EVEN THE IRS.  The organization goes on to attack the IRS: 

If you do not like being audited then you’re the problem.

Too much freedom is a bad thing. Get your IRS audit today.

These advertisements are a good laugh, but in truth, they are a direct reflection of how woke culture is destroying America. There is no logic or reason behind the woke agenda, and yet, politicians are pandering to support it in an effort to seem “progressive.” America must restore its sanity.
