A Smuggler's Life

Andrei Piriutko

I told you we live in Guy Ritchie’s movie. 2.0.

Nine guys were discovered suffering from respiratory issues after being trapped inside a container in Rotterdam in early October. The duration of their stay in the container was unknown. The spokeswoman for Hutchison Ports ECT Rotterdam claimed that the men broke in to retrieve a narcotics consignment. The container itself was packed with tree trunks. The group of men, aged 18 to 23, were examined by ambulance personnel before taking them into custody. The largest Dutch newspaper agency De Telegraaf reported that in September itself, 110 individuals were apprehended over 10 days while attempting to recover narcotics stashed in containers at the port of Rotterdam. On September 11 alone, the publication reported, 25 offenders were apprehended.
According to Port Police Chief Jan Janse, one common tactic employed by drug cartels is to drive a container filled with people into the port. The driver then dumps the container closest to where the narcotics are concealed, allowing them to pick up the drugs later. Officials frequently discover containers stocked with food and sleeping spaces that gangs use to conceal themselves until they can retrieve the narcotics.

Meanwhile...
Drug cartels in Central American have developed a sleek new smuggling vehicle that is practically impossible for law enforcement to track by radar. The criminals have replaced older, slow boats with sleek 'Picuda' models that are long, thin and can confound detection methods. Picudas can go as much as twice as fast as traditional smuggling vessels while carrying around a one ton of illegal drugs each.
The covert trips, made after dark, often take the smugglers from Colombia, and had on from there to Costa Rica, Honduras or Jamaica to unload their cargo to be sold off.
Whereas the trips used to take three days in the older speed boats, they can now be finished in two. The new boats also have a more efficient design, which means they use less fuel, saving money and making room for more illegal drugs. By employing fiberglass as the sole building material for the hulls - rather than just parts as before - the boats have also been made practically impervious to radar, confounding Coast Guard authorities who try to catch them.
The boats, which measure 32-38ft long, are usually equipped with three separate 200 horsepower engines.

AI and the Coming Chinese Dominance

Selwyn Duke

https://www.selwynduke.com/2021/10/2030-doom-with-beijing-dominating-ai-our-sleeping-woke-generals-invite-chinese-conquest.html

"Whoever leads in artificial intelligence in 2030 will rule the world until 2100.” So wrote the Brookings Institution in January 2020, echoing the warnings of so many. Thus should we be more than alarmed that the Pentagon’s former software chief — who just resigned in protest over our military’s stunted technological development — has said that cyber defenses in parts of our government are at "kindergarten level.”

What is Critical Race Theory

This from Willis Eschenbach:

One of the most influential black scholars, Wilfred Reilly, lays out the truth about Critical Race Theory. Me, I say it's the theory that you can only be critical of the white race because white people are 100% responsible for all of society's ills ... but Wilfred puts it on a much more scientific basis.

What is Critical Race Theory, Really?

Inflationary Depreciation

Chester McAteer

INFLATIONARY DEPRECIATION is a direct result of the Government (Federal Reserve) increasing the supply ( borrowing or printing) of Fake Fiat Money Substitutes we have come to call "DOLLARS" which are nothing more that IOUs backed by nothing but IOUs called Treasury Bonds back by future tax receipts. In other words, we trade Debt for Debt because our monetary system is a double liability system. (Because of this our federal Debt can NEVER BE PAID OFF)

Compared with a year ago, the price of food at home is up 4.6 percent, the Department of Labor’s Consumer Price Index indicates.

Some of the biggest jumps on an annual basis:

Ground beef: + 10.6 percent.

Steaks: +22.1 percent.

Bacon: +19.3 percent.

Pork roasts, ribs, steaks: +19.2 percent.

Chickens: +17.1 percent.

Fresh fish: +10.7 percent.

Eggs: +12.6 percent.

Peanut Butter: +6.2 percent.

Apples: + 7.8 percent.

Ham: +7 percent.

Baby food: +4.4 percent.

We Have Heard This Dogma Ad Nauseum

From Marcus Goyne

'The Science Is Settled'

'Yes, the science is settled and anyone not going along with the
medical authorities are ignorant science deniers.'

It's clearly not apparent by those who make these claims, that they are familiar with what science actually is.
SCIENCE.
The word means;
(a) The observation, identification, description, experimental investigation and theoretical explanation of phenomena.
(b) A systematic method or body of knowledge in a given area.

Science is a process and a tool that our logical minds can use.
It is not wisdom and it is not a system that tells us what to do or how to orientate ourselves in this world.
Unfortunately the term has been increasingly misused by authorities and their devotees and when they say science they usually mean dogma.

Dogma that they want enforced with censorship of those who take a different point of view, but what exactly are they afraid of?

Spiking Oil

This from Carl R. Franklin:

West Texas crude has doubled in the last year and is accelerating higher. Brent crude is up even more. Natural gas prices have also doubled in the US and are up over 500% in UK. Coal prices have doubled. Governments who restricted oil production are now pleading with OPEC to increase production as we head into heating season. Governments are experts at screwing up the free market and suffering the consequences. Fools.

May be an image of text that says 'Oil S80 $75 $70 S65 560 S55 Oil is breaking out to new highs S50 545 Sep Oct Nov Dec 2021 Feb Mar ww.stansberryresearch.com Apr May Jun S40 Source Bloomberg 535 Jul Aug Sep Oct'

The Proper Role of Government

"Government has three primary functions. It should provide for military defense of the nation. It should enforce contracts between individuals. It should protect citizens from crimes against themselves or their property. When government-- in pursuit of good intentions tries to rearrange the economy, legislate morality, or help special interests, the cost come in inefficiency, lack of motivation, and loss of freedom. Government should be a referee, not an active player."

Media Lies About Southwest Walkout

Timothy Birdnow

This is true:

KC Jenkins

We now have a number of airports reporting mass flight cancellations nationwide. However, watching/ reading the fake news media you wouldn't know that this was due to walkouts by air traffic controllers who stand in opposition to vaccine mandates. Expect their efforts to expand. How long can [they] hide the truth from the public?

Tim adds:

I was watching a report on a local television station about this and they didn't even mention the walkouts. Tried to blame it on the supply chain disruption and Covid.

They spoke with a mouthpiece from Southwest Airline who blamed it on lack of fuel and everything else. The reporter did not once ask about the walkout.

It is amazing how the media lies to the American People.

Fear is the New Virtue

Marcus Goyne

Do not try to teach the duped Covidian Collective that lockdowns are a mistake.
Instead simply try to realise the truth.
What truth, you ask?
That lockdowns have turned fear into a virtue.
Those who are afraid, believe they're better people than those who aren't, and will look for ways to multiply fear, because that is their virtue.

Share and Share Alike...

Chester McAteer

So have you heard, it turns out that Joe Biden and Hunter Biden shared bank accounts and paid each other’s bills. So, now that the FBI is finally investigating Hunter’s finances, with crimes of money laundering and illicit foreign business relationships, influence peddling and other crimes, Hunter's emails implicate PaPa Joe in these criminal activities.

Can you say IMPEACHMENT?

Price Inflation

From E. Calvin Beisner

For those who, like me, have thought we're facing rapid and ongoing price inflation (I use that term instead of just "inflation" because, properly defined, inflation is expansion of the money supply, while price inflation is a ceteris paribus [other things being equal] general rise in prices---a consequence of the expansion of the money supply), this article is somewhat reassuring.

Reindeer Games

Timothy Birdnow

I love when left-wing factions go at it!

Reindeer Shut Down Windmills

"This is an intriguing battle between the Sky-Is-Falling- Build-Windmills left and the Worship-Indigen ous-People left.

"Agence France-Presse reported, "Norway's top court has ruled that two wind farms in the country's west have violated the rights of Sámi reindeer herders.""

But of course this is what the Left wanted all along; an insecure power supply.

They want people using little power. Cut off power and you will eventually reduce the world's population, or so they believe. At least you can control people if you get them used to rationed energy.

Good thing Rudolf has a glowing nose; it'll be the only light visible in Norway soon, once the power goes out.

A Medical Offer You Can't Refuse

Selwyn Duke

https://www.selwynduke.com/2021/10/making-the-covid-shot-inevitable-by-putting-vaccines-in-food-and-water.html

It’s clear that, like a medical mafia, the government wants to make the offer of COVID-19 "vaccines” an offer you can’t refuse. We’ve already seen thousands of Americans lose their jobs over "vaccine” mandates, an FDA employee caught on video recommending COVID-19 shots be administered involuntarily via blow darts, and Joe Biden et al. trying to turn the unvaccinated into today’s lepers.

Of course, you likely will want to avoid this overt coercion. But not in a way some fear could become reality: self-disseminating vaccines released into nature.

The 2020 Election Wasn’t Stolen, It Was Bought By Mark Zuckerberg

Dana Mathewson


This is an informative and thought-provoking article (meaning: it'll make you angry as all get-out) from The Federalist. I'll just give you the first part of the goodies:

During the 2020 election, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg spent hundreds of millions of dollars to turn out likely Democratic voters. But this wasn’t traditional political spending. He funded a targeted, private takeover of government election operations by nominally non-partisan — but demonstrably ideological — non-profit organizations.

Analysis conducted by our team demonstrates this money significantly increased Joe Biden’s vote margin in key swing states. This unprecedented merger of public election offices with private resources and personnel is an acute threat to our republic, and should be the focus of electoral reform efforts moving forward.

The 2020 election wasn’t stolen — it was likely bought by one of the world’s wealthiest and most powerful men pouring his money through legal loopholes.

Partisans Running Local Election Offices

The Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL) and The Center for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR) passed a staggering $419.5 million of Zuckerberg’s money into local government elections offices, and it came with strings attached. Every CTCL and CEIR grant spelled out in great detail the conditions under which the grant money was to be used.

This is not a matter of Democrats outspending Republicans. Private funding of election administration was virtually unknown in the American political system before the 2020 election. [emphasis added]

This is a fairly long article, but it's all important information. And if you're like me, you'll come away from it more convinced than ever that Zuckerberg should be in jail -- but won't be. Go here https://thefederalist.com/2021/10/12/the-2020-election-wasnt-stolen-it-was-bought-by-mark-zuckerberg/ for the rest of the article.

The Weakening

Daniel Robert Douglas

Most of us are not physicists so we do not pay attention to the subtle world of energies that surround us. It is not only the sun that is weakening demonstrating few and sometimes no sunspot activity. Earth’s magnetic field is also weakening "setting into motion a chain of events which causes destabilizing of Earth’s fluids – mostly of magma and also oceans and ice. These natural cyclical events cause the shifting of weather patterns, climate, elevated earth changing events such as earthquakes, volcanoes, tornadoes, hurricanes etc.”
