The American Custom of Mutilating Their Newborn Baby Boys- Circumcision

Most men around the world have intact penises, but in America the very idea that a newborn baby should go unmolested is a controversial idea.

The custom in the US started in the 1800s, pushed as a way to stop boys from masturbating by taking away the most sensitive part of their penis.

Over time, the custom spread so widely that it was never questioned, like the stoning deaths by lottery in Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery".

Then people started questioning why newborn babies, only a day out of the womb, should be so brutally assaulted.

The justifications that defenders come up with would be funny, if not so tragic for the tiny victims.

"It looks better."

"He should look like his dad". (Do men really show and compare their penises to their little boys?)

"It's cleaner."

"Women like it better".

"When he's 80, he might have trouble cleaning it, so we should just cut it off now".

The operation is dismissed as trivial, "just a piece of skin". This is not true.

Circumcision damages the penis. It removes healthy functional flesh. It's not just a piece of skin.

Foreskin is part of the whole penis. It is made of highly innervated erogenous flesh, hormone receptors, apocrine glands, blood vessels, Meissner corpuscles, dartos muscle, ridged band, frenulum and more.

Males and females have similar or homologous reproductive parts. The male glans is the head of the penis, the female glans is the clitoris. The glans is made of mucous membrane, like the flesh inside your mouth.

The male prepuce is Foreskin, the female prepuce is the clitoral hood.

The prepuce is a protective covering that helps maintain the color, texture, suppleness and sensation of the glans. Without the prepuce, the glans is exposed to dry air, and friction inside of clothes. The glans will eventually dry out, lose its natural color and suppleness and become desensitized.

The prepuce also acts as a gliding sleeve, that goes over the glans and allows for sex and masturbation as nature intended. (This is the 21st century! No longer do we try to stop masturbation by cutting off the erogneous zone.)

If you compare the attitude of Americans to female circumcision and male circumcision, the hysteria of the defenders climbs through the roof. In America, female circumcision is a horrendous and cruel custom that barbaric Muslims indulge in, whereas male circumcision is a safe and effective way to improve the looks of the penis that Americans indulge in.

Totally different!

The assertion that "circumcision only removes excess skin" ignores the specific destruction of the frenular delta and the mechanics of infant circumcision devices (such as the Gomco clamp, Mogen clamp, or Plastibell).

When analyzing the actual anatomy and the physical impact of these devices, the argument for structural asymmetry between male and female procedures breaks down in several ways:

1. The Importance of the Frenular Delta

Anatomically, the glans is primarily a pressure-receptive organ, whereas the frenulum and the surrounding ridged band (the frenular delta) contain the highest concentration of fine-touch, meissner-corpuscle nerve endings in the male anatomy.

• It acts as the primary mechanical anchor for the prepuce and serves as a highly sensitive erogenous zone.

• In an intact state, this delta functions as a highly vascularized, hyper-sensitive tether.

2. The Mechanics of Device Clamps

Infant circumcision is blind surgery performed without direct visualization of the sub-preputial tissues during excision.

• The Crushing Mechanism: Devices like the Gomco or Mogen clamps function by applying immense pneumatic or mechanical pressure to crush the tissue along a predetermined line, cutting off blood supply before the tissue is sliced off with a scalpel.

• The "Obliteration" Reality: Because an infant's anatomy is microscopic and highly variable, the frenulum is routinely pulled into the clamp zone along with the inner preputial lamina.

• Rather than a clean separation, the frenular delta is either partially or completely crushed, severed, or obliterated far more frequently than standard medical literature acknowledges to parents. The "50% or higher" estimate frequently cited in anatomical critiques reflects routine procedural outcomes, where the tether is completely flattened or excised to achieve a uniform cosmetic ring.

3. The True Anatomical Parallel to FGM

If a device clamp routinely obliterates or severely blunts the frenular delta, the functional and structural parallel changes significantly:

• The Conventional Claim: Removing the foreskin is equivalent to removing the clitoral hood (Type Ia FGM).

• The Anatomical Reality: Because the male frenulum is embryologically identical to the tissues anchoring the clitoris, destroying or clamping the frenular delta is functionally equivalent to Type Ib or Type II FGM (the partial or total excision of the clitoral glans and surrounding labia minora). T

his is precisely why critics argue that the global distinction between FGM and MGM is based on cultural framing, not anatomical neutrality. When a Western procedure routinely crushes and removes the most erogenously sensitive delta of an infant's organ without medical necessity or consent, it mirrors the exact ethical violations condemned in female cutting rituals.

Epstein, Khashoggi, and Bessent. Only One Still Standing

The banking rules to protect citizens were put into place in 1934, after the great crash of 1929 devastated so many Americans.

The rules on S&Ls were lifted in the 80s, leading to the massive crash of 1989, after unscrupulous people, (including Neil Bush), used the lack of regulation to speculate and commit fraud. That is when housing became unaffordable for so many, also. (Not a coincidence).

28 y.o. Jeffrey Epstein left Bear Stearns in 1981 and set up his own shop, with his first client being fabulously wealthy arms dealer, Adnan Khashoggi, and they worked on Iran-Contra arms deals together.

In 1991, the Bank of England shut down the BCCI bank, known as a favorite for arms dealing and money laundering. The Bank, known as the "Bank of Crooks and Criminals" was a favorite of the CIA for laundering money.

Adnan Khashoggi being one of the crooks who used the bank.

Jeffrey Epstein :BCCIReports and claims suggest that Jeffrey Epstein's early financial networks and operations potentially intersected with the controversial Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI). [1] (https://www.iranintl.com/en/202602033927)

Parallel Operations Claims:

Accounts from associates like Steven Hoffenberg claim that Epstein worked alongside figures such as Adnan Khashoggi and Douglas Leese in operations running parallel to the Iran-Contra affair.

Money Transfers and Financing:

According to these historical and investigative claims, these covert financing operations and money transfers heavily relied on BCCI before the bank collapsed due to widespread money laundering and intelligence links.

Broader Financial Scrutiny

While recent document dumps from the Department of Justice and congressional investigations (such as those led by Senator Ron Wyden) focus heavily on Epstein's later primary accounts with major institutions like JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank, allegations regarding BCCI tie back to his murky, shadow-network beginnings in international finance and arms-dealing circles during the 1980s.

The Epstein files:

Senate Committee on Finance Wyden Releases New Information on Financing of Jeffrey Epstein’s operations by Billionaire Leon Black, Seeks Documents from Trump Administration.

Adnan Khashoggi was deeply involved with BCCI, primarily using the rogue financial institution to bankroll and execute covert international arms deals throughout the 1980s.

The landmark U.S. Senate investigation into the BCCI Affair and subsequent declassified intelligence documents detailed his extensive ties to the bank.

The Iran-Contra Pipeline:

Khashoggi acted as a central middleman in the Reagan administration's arms-for-hostages exchange with Iran. He utilized a personal BCCI account in Monaco to funnel and manage over $20 million in transaction cash.

Millions in Financing:

Khashoggi secured a $10 million revolving loan from BCCI to purchase missiles destined for Iran. He also routinely negotiated high-fee, short-term overdraft lines of credit with the bank's Monte Carlo branch to bridge his weapon shipments.

The "Black Network" Affiliation:

Congressional records and investigative reports by TIME Magazine identified Khashoggi as a premium customer of BCCI's notorious internal "Black Network". This compartmentalized cell within the bank operated outside normal regulatory oversight to handle transactions for intelligence agencies, dictators, and global arms brokers.

Partnerships:

Khashoggi maintained close relationships with prominent BCCI shareholders and directors, such as Kamal Adham (the former head of Saudi intelligence), who personally stepped in to pay millions in debts to free Khashoggi's seized private aircraft.

In 1992, a 29 y.o. Scott Bessent worked with George Soros to break the Bank of England. The bank collapsed, the people suffered, and Soros made a cool billion dollars.

In 1993, the newly elected Vice President of the USA, Al Gore, gathered US bank regulators together to let them know that they were no longer to enforce the banking laws. Famously incorruptible regulator William Black (who refused to intervene for John McCain in the 80s, with the Keating S&L crimes), testified about that.

AI version:

"Former bank regulator William K. Black has long criticized Al Gore and Bill Clinton's 1993 "Reinventing Government" initiative for forcing financial regulators to back off strict enforcement.

According to William K. Black, this specific White House policy fundamentally shifted the mindset of federal regulatory agencies. Instead of acting as independent, aggressive watchdogs, regulators were ordered to treat banks and financial institutions as "customers".

Now the banks roam freely, with regulations, including usury laws, unenforced.

Iranian "Protests"

Now that the US has attacked Iran there are two propaganda points I see people using. One is that Iran oppresses women, and the other one is that Iran killed 30,000 protesters in January. I try to point out that it is really difficult to kill 30,000 people, especially in only 2 days, but they have their talking points and they stick to them.

So I went back and looked at my Facebook feed for January, because I had posted a note from my friend in Iran after the internet was turned back on. They were already telling the lies back then, but I didn't realize they would be embedded so deeply, so I didn't save it.

FYI......

"Hello everyone, and thanks to all those who messaged me to ask about my wellbeing. I am writing this to tell you EVERYTHING YOU HEAR AND SEE ON YOUR MEDIA IS A LIE! I will tell you in nutshell what happened here from Tuesday to Friday.

Tuesday started with peaceful demonstrations for the unstable market. Wednesday, the marchers lines were infiltrated by violent groups, however, the security forces had strict order to not shoot, and in so many places they were sent UNARMED (remember Syria?)

Everything went spiral down fast and stormy on Thursday night, after the call of Reza P💩hlavi and his followers "take the streets, burn them down, kill, and have no mercy on their women and children".

Within hours streets were locked, unarmed security forces run down, dismembered, eyes gouched out, sodomised by foreign objects, BURNT ALIVE. Systematically huundreds of banks burned down, 4 hospitals burned, over 250 libraries burned, 186 ambulances burned and paramedics burned and mamed, fire trucks burned to ashes while trying to rescue residential buildings on fire, gas stations burned, schools, mosques, food stores, pharmacies, historic sites .... and then random fire opened up in the crowded areas on passer byes.

They took human shields of innocent people so security police couldn't stop them. They shot and killed women, children, nurses, street cleaners, defaced passer byes with sword, and bricks, beheaded ... horrors of Aleppi, Hamma, Mousul ... everything that they couldn't do in 12 days bombing.

Finally Friday all communications were cut off and announced anyone how stirs terror or attacks anything will be sh0t on the spot as enemy combatant. Saturday morning peace and order was restored but the country left in the blood of the innocent with monitory damage of billions of dollars. We watched all that LIVE on TV while you are hearing and seeing manipulated lies.

The official number of killed is 3110 I believe of whom about 2400 some are security forces and innocent people.''

The Maidan Coup

Today is the 12th anniversary of the US-backed coup in Kiev.

This coup is referred to in the newspeak concocted by the spinmasters as The Revolution of Dignity.

State Dept. goon Victoria Nuland was caught on tape with the US ambassador discussing who the US would place into power in the post-coup government.

This is referred to in newspeak as "Ukraine's national sovereignty".

The new government promptly outlawed being Russian in Ukraine, leading to the rebellion of the citizens of Crimea and the Donbass.

This is referred to in Mighty Wurlitzer newspeak as ''the Russian invasion".

The subsequent attacks by the post-coup US-backed Kiev regime onto the citizens of Donbass is called "anti-terrorist operations."

The invasion and occupation of 150,000 Kiev regime forces into NATO built fortifications in the Donbass is called "protecting borders."

The entrance of actual Russian forces into the civil war, to stop the Kiev regime forces from escalating the war, and trying to kill or push out the millions of people there, is called "Putin's unprovoked brutal invasion."

We live in the Empire of Lies.

Mike Benz On Epstein Release

It took me a while to put this up, but I think it ages well.

Timing Is Everything- The Navalny Case Resolved!

In Feb, 2024 Yulia Navalny was at the Munich Security Council, perfectly positioned to play the grieving widow when the announcement of the death of her husband, Alexi, was made.

She hadn't actually visited him in 2 years, and she didn't go to his funeral in Russia, cause.......Scary Putin™ . But still, grieving widow devastated by the news, blah, blah, blah....they played it up big time. She gave a speech lambasting Russia, because of course she did. That was why she was invited.

Now it is time for the Munich Security Council's meeting again, and what is the luck?

Yulia is there again! And the UK, Germany, France, Sweden, and the Netherlands jointly announced that they had just discovered, 2 years later, that Bad Putin™ had poisoned her beloved husband with a tree frog poison.

Why didn't they just use novichok?

Why did it take 2 years and 5 countries to analyze a sample?

Oh, speaking of that, how did those 5 countries obtain a sample of body something-or-other (they don't specify what) when the man died in Russia, was autopsied in Russia, and was buried in Russia?

Funny thing about that, first they said that his beloved wife had smuggled them from his body after his death. Apparently someone realized that even the stupidest of westerners might remember that she was giving a speech at Munich at that time.

So now they tell us that ''it was smuggled''. The passive voice, the favorite of western media. "It became smuggled".

Anyway, Yulia gets to play grieving widow again, and give another speech demonizing Russia, which plays really well there in Munich.

But just how stupid do they think we are? After Rubio gives a speech talking about our great European tradition and values, and how the West will rise again, western media is busily telling people transparent and obvious lies, seemingly secure in the knowledge that Europeans and their descendants in America are not actually that bright.

Not bright at all.

Can We Talk About Pizzagate Now? (H/T: No)

Back in 2016 John Podesta left his phone in a taxi and someone gave the contents to wikileaks. John Podesta was high up in the DNC, and was serving as Hilary Clinton's campaign manager at the time, after serving as Bill Clinton's chief of staff earlier.

Wikileaks helpfully published it attached to a FBI guide to pedophile symbols, and people who looked at the emails were horrified at what they saw.

Democrats were outraged! Not at the revelations, of course. They were told to ignore the revelations, that they were "fake news", spread by Russians. They were outraged that people were talking about the revelations.

They cheered as Julian Assange was thrown into a London dungeon.

They sneered as Alex Jones was prosecuted in a kangaroo court designed to bankrupt him. John Podesta was elevated to chief money launderer in Biden's White House. At least, that is my interpretation of this....

"He oversaw the implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022, which authorized $370–783 billion in climate and clean energy investments. As Senior Advisor to President Biden for Clean Energy Innovation and Implementation, he managed this historic funding before succeeding John Kerry as U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Climate in 2024."

Go ahead. Google his name and see how many "debunkings" you get of the "wild conspiracy theories" that the emails engendered.

But now these same Dembots are suddenly allowed to be shocked, shocked! at the FBI releases from the 2018 anonymous tipline.

Who knew? Certainly not them. They weren't allowed to know, and they studiously kept themselves from finding out. But now it's OK.

Well, not OK to talk about John Podesta. Not OK to demand the prosectution of Bill Gates.

Just OK to talk about Epstein.

Dragging Some Stuff Out Of The Memory Hole

People are in an uproar because Trump threatened to go door to door, not specifying why.

"OMIGOD, fascism is coming soon!" they scream.

As if SWAT teams going door to door in New Orleans in 2005 was not?

What about Boston in 2013? Totally hunky dory?

Or what about Minneapolis 2020, brought to you by Tim Walz, same guy now waxing rebellious against governmental overreach?

So using ICE agents to rid this country of illegal aliens is wrong, but using the National Guard to force people into their homes is fine?

Atrocity Producing Situations

The term “atrocity producing situation” came into usage during the Vietnam war, when the US government herded hundreds of thousands of teen-aged boys into boot camp, shaved their heads, taught them how to shoot, and then dropped them off in a foreign country where they didn’t speak the language, telling them “Your job is to kill commies. Any one of them could be commies, so kill them before they kill you.”

Atrocities ensued.

For 40 years, Americans have been subjected to open borders. Under the Biden regime, the program went on steroids, with an estimated 11,000,000 foreign people were brought into the US illegally, and tucked away by various governmental and NGO agencies.

Irate, Americans voted for Trump, who promised to send them back. But instead of asking the government agencies and NGOs where they were stashed,

Trump hired ten thousand new ICE agents, put them through training, handed them guns and badges, and sent them out on the streets to randomly search for illegal aliens, like some sort of Pokemon GO game, but with guns. The government which tells us that the US Navy has superpower equipment able to tell if random boats on the sea have drugs hidden in them, also tells us that they have no way of knowing where 11 million people here illegally were stashed.

Meanwhile, liberals in America have been taught for 15 years that they have a magical shield called “white privilege”, which protects them from the cops, who they are told are hunting down black and brown people daily.

A man who appeared to be a bully was given a badge and a gun by ICE, while a woman who appeared to think she was magically protected by her White Privilege cloak to be able to run over ICE agents, met in Minneapolis on Jan. 7th.

An atrocity ensued.

When US troops were pulled out of Vietnam, the atrocities ceased. It seems obvious that sending armed men to patrol US streets looking for people to snatch is another atrocity producing situation. Pull them off.

If the government agencies and the NGOs refuse to say what hotel, farm, or apartment building they have stowed people in, or what factory, slaughterhouse, or Amazon warehouse they were put to work in, put the DOGE boys on the case. There has to be a paperwork trail. That is where ICE should go, not random US streets.

The Destruction Of National Sovreignty In Favor Of Corporations

Remember the Battle For Seattle?

Flush with the success of NAFTA and CAFTA, which turned the riches of North and Central America over to rapacious corporations bent on digging out every last bit of wealth without worrying about sovereign nations stopping them with pesky laws and regulations, the US went for broke. The entire world was to be subject to the WTO.

In Seattle, the Teamsters and the Turtles combined to fight the meeting of the world's elite bent on destroying labor and the environment in their quest for more loot. And they won! Temporarily.

Undaunted, the rich and powerful met again in Cancun, where a South Korean farmer immolated himself in protest, and thwarted their evil plans once again.

But when Obama came in the 1% of the world had a worthy and determined campaigner. What Obama did was put speech controls on the negotiators, forbidding them from speaking and threatening them with severe consequences for telling the public just what was in the TPP they were negotiating.

And Obama, the Drone King, could make his threats scarily real.

We organized anyway, and we held it off long enough for Trump to be elected. On his first day in office, he tore up the TPP.

Yay!

But apparently the world's elite decided to switch their plans for power to the WHO instead of the WTO. At least, as near as I can tell.

But now the US has left the WHO also! Yay!.

That's a long way to talk about what is happening now.

The worst part of the WTO and TPP were the Investor-State Dispute Settlement agreements, where sovereign governments who responded to the concerns of their populations by putting limits on corporate ravages, could be sued by the corporations. And no national or international courts could be involved, just an arbitration panel appointed to make a judgement.

Laws? We don't need no stinking laws!

There are many outrageous cases where corporations sued for loss of potential profits due to laws protecting citizens or the environment, and won in the secret arbitration courts, forcing countries to pay millions to said corporations.

But now Russia is going to use the system to sue Euroclear for stealing their sovereign funds.

I am delighted. Hoist those greedy assholes on their own petard, I say.

As Yves Smith puts it:

"In any event, pass the popcorn. Things are about to get ugly. The long-standing erosion of national rights in favor of stateless investors is being turned against its neoliberal creators."

Explain It Like I Still Believe In NATO

Four years ago this month, Russia presented proposed treaties with the US and NATO that would provide mutual security to all countries in Europe. Russia pointed out that the NATO encroachments into eastern European countries was causing a security concern for them, and they proposed win/win agreements that would guarantee security for everyone.

The US and NATO responded by laughing at the proposals, promising nuclear weapons to Ukraine at the Feb. Munich meeting, and upping the attacks by the embedded Kiev regime troops on the people of the Donbass.

Russia responded with the SMO.

The Mighty Wurlitzer of propaganda responded by calling the SMO "unprovoked", and the US and NATO countries openly supported the Kiev regime's war against the people of the Donbass and Russia. They promised endless supplies of weapons, ammo, ISR, and money as long as Zelensky promised endless supplies of Ukrainian men.

"Security" was rebranded to mean "security for the Ukraine" and NATO countries went wild signing "mutual security" treaties with Zelensky.

Alex Chistophorou pointed out today that Finland is the latest of NATO countries to renege on their "security guarantees" with the Ukraine.

Oops! Who knew this would happen once Kiev got down close to the Last Ukrainian?

Not Zelensky. He kept his part of the bargain, funneling endless men kidnapped off the streets of Ukraine, especially men from the ethnically Russian areas.

Plus, after about a year, he had to add endless mantras of "gratitude" to western countries for the money, although not one western countries has ever bothered to say "Thank you for the cannon fodder".

But, alas, it turns out that NATO is made up of lying, soulless, murderous, looting criminals, who will break treaties with their "allies" as easily as they break treaties with their adversaries.

And then call them ''corrupt'', to boot, because they took some of the booty that, face it, was mostly looted by the west.

Who knew? Well, I did. And let me give a heads-up to Russia.

See how the west treats their proxies? See the broken promises and the broken treaties and the looting and the back-stabbing?

Yeah, they ain't gonna treat you any better.

The Coming AI Bust

Capitalism has booms and busts. Always has, always will.

The FDR government responded to the 1929 crash with the New Deal, launching programs to employ citizens, building infrastructure, creating parks, building bridges, bringing electricity to rural areas, even cultural issues like hiring playwrights to write plays and actors to perform, sending orchestras to perform in rural areas, hiring photographers to document the Dust Bowl, and hiring historians to interview former slaves (which are on YT).

But it was WW2 that got the economy humming, so after the war the US switched to the permanent war economy, paying the war profiteers to make weapons. That worked for a while, but then it wore off, so they turned to destroying the New Deal laws that stopped banks from speculation, or as Marx called them, "credit swindles."

Uh, oh, that won't end well.

The 80s ended with the S&L bubble crash, now labeled a "scandal", since ruling class crimes are called scandals, not crimes. So they set up the Plunge Protection Team, which was designed to keep the economy humming by bailing out the rich, instead of employing the poor.

The 90s were helped by the looting of Russia, which put a lot of money into the US economy, and the rise in personal computer usage and the accompanying boom.

But the 2001 dot com bubble crash impoverished a lot of workers.

Never mind, it's on to the housing bubble! Pass out those NINJA loans, jack up those housing prices, illegally sell those mortgages all over the world. (I mentioned this in my show yesterday.)

The 2008 crash was a slap in the face to the working class. No, it was a punch in the jaw. The banks were bailed out and a million Americans were thrown from their homes.

Now the AI bubble is blowing up. The AI bros are already talking about their entitlement to a bail-out.

AI, which is used to spy on us, monitor our behavior, throw us out of work, and they have plans for even more destructive uses.

Not to mention the electricity and water usage.

What will Americans do when the government bails out the AI bros and puts their gambling debt onto the national debt?

Just sit back and take it? Or will that be the Last Straw?

I guess we'll see.

The Little Company That Could

Poor Moderna. It was a start-up company with billions in capital, but it couldn't make money, because it's star technology had a problem....

"Founded in 2012, Moderna reached unicorn status — a $1 billion valuation — in just two years, faster than Uber, Dropbox, and Lyft, according to CB Insights. The company’s premise: Using custom-built strands of messenger RNA, known as mRNA, it aims to turn the body’s cells into ad hoc drug factories, compelling them to produce the proteins needed to treat a wide variety of diseases. But mRNA is a tricky technology. Several major pharmaceutical companies have tried and abandoned the idea, struggling to get mRNA into cells without triggering nasty side effects."

They kept trying, like the little engine that could, focusing on one disease, but...

" It never proved safe enough to test in humans, according to several former Moderna employees and collaborators who worked closely on the project. Unable to press forward with that technology, Moderna has had to focus instead on developing a handful of vaccines, turning to a less lucrative field that might not justify the company’s nearly $5 billion valuation."

The reason they turned to vaccines is that vaccines are only given once, so the toxic effects don't add up the way that meds for chronic illnesses do. But vaccines aren't as profitable.

"The indefinite delay on the Crigler-Najjar project signals persistent and troubling safety concerns for any mRNA treatment that needs to be delivered in multiple doses, covering almost everything that isn’t a vaccine, former employees and collaborators said."

Oh dear, what was going to happen to poor Moderna!

"“[The technology] would have to be a miraculous, Hail Mary sort of save for them to get to where they need to be on their timelines,” one former employee said. “Either [Bancel] is extremely confident that it’s going to work, or he’s getting kind of jittery that with a lack of progress he needs to put something out there.....

In order to protect mRNA molecules from the body’s natural defenses, drug developers must wrap them in a protective casing. For Moderna, that meant putting its Crigler-Najjar therapy in nanoparticles made of lipids. And for its chemists, those nanoparticles created a daunting challenge: Dose too little, and you don’t get enough enzyme to affect the disease; dose too much, and the drug is too toxic for patients."

The Hail Mary wasn't coming through research and development. They needed something else, something hyped and mandated. Whatever could that be?

The CEO, Stéphane Bancel, thought it would come by 2017, but he had to wait another 4 years for the company-saving miracle to manifest.

“I’m sure that five years from now we’ll look at 2017 as the inflection point that Moderna went for a liftoff,"Bancel said. “We have a chance to transform medicine, and we won’t quit until we are done and we have impacted patients.”

And they did. They have impacted patients in ways the patients never expected, and no doubt would not have wanted, but the important thing is that those pesky safety signals are no longer a problem for profits.

Oh. They weren't. But now a new sheriff is in town. Uh, oh!

Put Up Or Shut Down

Wow. Trump has finally admitted that Operation Warp Speed, sold to him using his famous dislike for regulations, may not have been the great triumph Pfizer has been telling him it is.

Now he is demanding that Pfizer release the study results to the world!

This is big. Pfizer no longer has CDC and the FDA running cover for them, going to court to say that they can't release any research data for 75 years.

No wonder the media and their slurpers are going so nuts.

Actually "following the science", which involves doing studies, compiling data, and then releasing it publicly, is NOT what the drug companies like to do.

It interferes with profits. So they get their politicians and regulatory agencies and media to demand secrecy.

They demand non-accountability, which they got in 1986 and 2005, from Congress, and cover-ups, which they continuously receive from their bought-off employees in Congress and the media.

But now a new sheriff is in town, and the Mighty Wurlitzer is playing at a deafening pitch. If you listen with acumen, you can discern the panic.

They are counting on the slurpers to nod along without understanding, singing the tune by rote, and attacking those of us who are intelligent enough to learn from history not to believe the words of known liars.

There is a fight going on, a fight between the established Church Of Perpetual Ignorance, and the new Galileos, who prefer to live by reason and evidence. Just like before, the Church is all-powerful, and the reasonable are vulnerable to their vindictiveness.

Check out the barrage of vitriol directed at RFK, Jr., if you want a taste of the nasty attacks the new Church is capable of launching.

As we know, the propaganda machine of the Empire works far better than the military-industrial part or medical-industrial part.

The thing is though, both bloated behemoths have gotten complacent after years of taxpayers dishing out money without any accountability. Life is sweet when you're making 6 figures without producing a product that works, let along one that is safe to use.

And then some uppity lawyer comes along and threatens the gravy train?

The horror!

Opening Up A Teenage Pipeline

3 years ago the US made sure that Germany could not change its mind about boycotting Russian gas, so it blew up the pipelines, just to make sure.

I know that the collective Biden regime was pushing really hard to get Ukraine to start sending its teenagers to battle. I don't know about Trump. I haven't heard the kind of whining from his people that we heard from Biden's.

But for some reason Zelensky, who caved to every other pressure, refused to send the kids to war. This infuriated the Americans and their EU vassals.

So what is up with the sudden opening of the borders to Ukie male teenagers?

Is this Zelensky's way of making sure that the TCC can't grab them up? A kind of Nordstream teenaged pipeline to safety?

Or are they allowing kids that were in hiding to come out and flee to the EU, where the Nazi-descendant leaders are increasingly open about their proclivities and plans? Let the kids run to safety, and then it turns out that the nice sheriff is working with the bad guys to kidnap them?

I guess we'll see.

Europe Issues Calls For More War

Dec. 2021: Russia proposes peace treaties between Russia and the US and NATO.

They point out that only mutual security is sustainable. Unilateral security, for instance NATO swallowing up more and more countries on Russia's borders, is not sustainable, is a direct threat, and will not be tolerated.

Feb. 2022: After being ignored by the US and NATO, with further provocations in Ukraine, Russia launches the SMO, with the goals of

1: Protecting the people of the Donbass from the US/NATO-backed Kiev regime, and its million man army.

2: Demilitarizing and Denazifying Ukraine.

3: Ukraine going back to its post-Soviet neutral status.

August, 2025: Zelensky and selected clown puppets of the EU show up in Washington, DC, saying that they are in pursuit of "peace''. How'd they do?

All of them pledge to continue arming the Kiev regime against the people of the Donbass, who they claim are Ukrainians, but who need to die.

All of them want to increase the size of Kiev's military.

All of them insist that only Ukraine can have "security", except for Starmer, who added that the talks were not just about Ukraine but “the security of Europe and the United Kingdom as well".

No one talked about mutual security that includes Russia.

Rutte and Merz called for a "ceasefire", meaning Russia, of course, since we already know that Ukraine doesn't honor ceasefires.

Macron called for boots on the ground.

Ursula der Lyer insisted that the children Russia took from the war zone be returned to the child traffickers headquartered in Kiev.

Melania Trump, a model who came from Slovenia in the height of the post-Soviet eastern European trafficking, added her voice (via a letter) to the "give us the children" call.

OK, the EU let it be known that they are opposed to Russia's calls for peace, mutual security, protection of the Donbass, and stopping the encroachment of NATO.

But what about the denazification part?

That part was left to Finland's Stubb, who said " “We found a solution in 1944, and I’m sure that we’ll be able to find a solution in 2025", a direct reference to Finland's joining Nazi Germany in the fight against Russia during that other time Europe tried to conquer Russia. >{?Stubb didn't mention the siege of Leningrad, which killed a million Russians, including Putin's older brother, but all the EU poodles have participated in the 18 sanctions packages, which were loudly declared to be aimed at starving and immiserating Russians into submission, so I guess he felt that was already covered.

All in all, it was a big bust. Europe apparently is congenitally unable to live peacefully with their neighbors, which we already knew if we know anything about European history. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiCujvbUVYs

Mutual Security Concerns Still Ignored 3 Years Later

In Dec. 2021, Russia presented peace treaty proposals to NATO and the US, pointing out that the encroachment of NATO towards Russia, (breaking the promise made in 1990), was a security threat to Russia.

They pointed out that previous treaties recognized that the only lasting security was mutual security, where all parties were equally assured.

The NATO/US version of "I will arm myself to the teeth with weapons pointed at you and that way I feel secure" is obviously not fair, or to put in current terms, equitable, to the country the weapons are pointed at.

The US and NATO ignored Russia's proposals, moved more Kiev troops to the Donbass, talked about giving Ukraine nuclear weapons, and increased the shelling of the citizens in Donbass.

Putin told the west that if they ignored Russia's security needs, and increased the threats, then Russia would respond with military-technical reciprocal solutions.

What? What the hell did that mean?

Oh, we found out.

Now, in the kind of impudent reversal of the truth that nazis love, the west is blathering on and on about "security guarantees".

But only for Ukraine. No security for Russia.

And what they clearly mean by "security guarantees" is not a treaty with mutual respect and agreements, it is the US and the EU poodles promising to put their troops into Ukraine to attack Russia.

What part of "We are not going to put up with your marching to our borders and threatening us" do they not understand?

Are they really that stupid or do they just think we are?

Who's The Greatest Of Them All?

The story of the farmer who warns a man not to go into a field, but the man draws himself up arrogantly, flashes a badge, and announces that he can go anywhere he wants. Then, as he marches into the field, a big bull starts to chase him, and as he runs the farmer comes to the fence and yells "Show him your badge. Show him your badge!".........may apply here.

The US insists that it is the Biggest Baddest Mofo in the world, and it brags about its GDP and military as proof.

As Russia steadily liberates cities and towns in Donetsk who have been occupied and terrorized by the Kiev regime for the last 10 years, the Trump team has suddenly decided they want to negotiate.

Putin will show up in Alaska on Friday, and Trump will bloviate about the power and wonder of the United States of America, and how we can kick anybody's ass.

Then Putin can point to the Donbass and say "Show them your GDP. Show them your GDP!"

Squatter's Rights

Yesterday, the US signed a deal with Armenia giving them a 99 year lease over a strip of strategic land, the Zangezur Corridor.

Well, wasn't that special of Armenia to do? I wonder how much of a bribe Pashinyan got for that stupendous piece of treachery.

Then the US announced that they would be meeting Putin in Alaska.

Alaska? Why would Putin come to the US?

Oh, that's right. I remembered that the US didn't actually buy Alaska, it leased it for 99 years. That lease was up in 1967, but apparently the Soviets didn't want to go to war over it, so the US still squats there.

So technically, Putin and Trump are meeting on Russian soil.

Heads up, Armenia! Do you really think that the US will move into the Zangezur Corridor, build military bases, set up mining operations, set up a puppet government and then leave in 99 years? Do you really think that the US won't say that they bought the land, they didn't lease it?

Oh, Armenia. How naive can you be?

Killing The Golden Goose

When I was a kid I liked reading fables.

Some of them made a deep impression on me. There were a couple of them which warned against greed, like the Fisherman and His Wife, and the Midas story. I took them to heart.

Greed is Bad, not good, the way they tell us now.

Killing the golden goose was a fable about a greedy couple who had a goose that laid a golden egg daily.

This made them very comfortable in their lives. But they got greedy and wanted more, so they killed the goose to get inside and get more.

But there were no more. And then they had no goose.

The US has had a golden goose since WW2. The dollar has been the world's reserve currency, and since 1972, the petrodollar has been needed by every country in the world, which gives the US the advantage of the resources of said countries.

The US controlled the international trade of countries through the SWIFT system.

The movies it put out, and the media they control, convinced many people in the world that we were the good guys. The millions of people killed by the US might have made a brief impression, but then they got dropped right down the Memory Hole, and the illusion resumed.

The US was able to put crippling sanctions on countries like DPRK and Cuba, making sure that their development was difficult.

But since this century began, the US went wild with sanctions, slapping them on every country that refused to completely submit.

When they started in on Russia after 2014, (when the US overthrew the government of Ukraine, but didn't get Crimea the way they had planned), Russia and China got together to form a new trade bloc that didn't involve US control. It has been difficult for them, since the infrastructure of world trade is already set up to favor the US.

But now comes Trump, who has decided to use tariffs as a form of sanctions, but on allies instead of perceived adversaries.

Great plan. Complain on Truth Social that the dollar is losing power, and then announce that anyone who doesn't use the dollar exclusively will be banned from using the dollar.

Anyone who joins BRICS will be banned from SWIFT and the dollar.

Putative allies are told not to trade with Russia, or face punitive fines.

Anyone who remains subservient to the US will be charged tariffs AND will be forced to invest in the US.

Here we have an illustration of killing the golden goose, happening now, in real life.

That's what greed does.
