Governments begin with taxation as the easiest way...

Editor's note: ...to raise revenue, but persistent trillion-dollar deficits, now so large that interest payments rival defense spending, inevitably force them toward ever more intrusive measures: wealth taxes, unrealized capital gains taxes, exit taxes, and capital controls. As mobile high-net-worth individuals and capital flee high-tax jurisdictions like California, the burden shifts to those who remain who are getting hammered in taxes, triggering a vicious feedback loop that ends in financial surveillance, digital currencies designed for control, and the erosion of financial freedom. This spiral is not inevitable; it is enabled and prolonged by central banks, particularly the Federal Reserve, whose ability to monetize government debt and suppress interest rates removes all market discipline from reckless fiscal policy. The solution is clear: the current structure of central banking must be abolished entirely, and the power to create credit must be returned directly to the state so that government can fund itself without the endless accumulation of debt or the desperate hunt for trapped capital.

From Taxation to Confiscation

April 20, 2026 | By Martin Armstrong

Governments always begin with taxation because it is the most straightforward and politically acceptable means of raising revenue, yet history has shown repeatedly that when deficits expand beyond control, taxation alone is never sufficient and the system begins to evolve into something far more intrusive. The United States is now running persistent deficits exceeding $1 trillion annually, with the Congressional Budget Office projecting deficits remaining above that level for the foreseeable future as interest payments alone approach or exceed defense spending, and once debt servicing becomes one of the largest line items in government expenditure, the pressure to find new sources of revenue intensifies dramatically.

Editor's note: Someone is apparently pissing nails.

It is becoming fairly obvious for careful observers...

Editor's note: ...that America under Trump & Co. are in a historical commercial war with the British ruling elite unfolding in the Straight of Hormuz connected to shipping and Lloyd's of London. Is the City of London running Iran's propaganda through the British-based PressTV? Maybe as Americans we need to reevaluate our individual understanding that during the American Revolutionary War, historians generally estimate that between 6,800 and 7,000 Americans were killed in direct combat against British regulars and their mercenary forces. And as for how that combat actually took place, despite the ridiculous European concept of firing volleys of lead into each other's chests, many American fighters said screw that grim ritual and fired at British regulars and their mercenary attachments from behind stone walls and from behind big trees. Terrorism™ is a trademark name for the British. Hell, many suspect even Hitler was a British asset. "International terrorism™ alright, nearly all of Europe was destroyed.

The British Ruling Elite As A Subject Of Cultural And International Terrorism

By Averyanov Andrey Vladimirovich and Shamarov Pavel Vyacheslavovich | Sott.net | April 20 2026

This article examines the ingrained greed and historical ruthlessness of the Anglo-Saxon elites toward other nations and peoples, and substantiates, explicates, and introduces into scholarly usage the new authorial concepts of "British cultural terrorism", "cultural decolonization", and "historical anti-Russianism".

Perplexing isn't it?

Editor's note: America, a nominally "Christian" nation with millions of evangelical Zionist Christians supporting Israel with US foreign policy in the hands of Zionists and here we have an Israeli IDF soldier smashing a statue of Jesus with a sledge hammer. What does this Israeli IDF soldier understand that we don't? Maybe this IDF soldier understands that Christianity is a Jewish evolutionary strategy grafted onto western culture to cripple it by demonstrating this with a sledge hammer (my God is better than your God)? Maybe he is demonstrating "an eye for an eye" while Christians "turn the other cheek?" Maybe he is graphically illustrating Christian eschatology is a demonstrable historical impossibility and he is pissed because he is being forced to destroy Lebanon? Is he being used to kick off another horrifying Christian crusade against the Muslim world? After all, it is largely Christian Zionists forcing Jews back to Israel. Remember those western intelligence-created ISIS terrorists™ hired on to smash through Libya when they went into a Christian cemetery and desecrated Christian grave stones and a large stone crucifix overlooking the cemetery? The clash of the monotheists.

Israeli Soldier Destroys Jesus Status In Lebanon Sparking Outrage

By South Front | April 22, 2026

A viral photograph showing an Israeli soldier hitting a statue of Jesus Christ in southern Lebanon with a sledgehammer surfaced online on April 19 sparked outrage.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the authenticity of a photo, taken at the Christian village of Debel, promising that it will take action against those involved.

The transformation of Amazon into a digital...

Editor's note: ..."border guard" was the culmination of a decade-long legislative effort by the US Congress and the Executive Branch to close the "offshore" loophole. Specifically, the following laws and entities set this corporate system in place:

1. The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA)

The most significant architect of this system was the 111th United States Congress, which passed FATCA in 2010. It was introduced by Representative Charles Rangel and Senator Max Baucus, and signed into law by President Barack Obama. While FATCA was originally aimed at "foreign financial institutions" (banks), it effectively turned any large corporation that moves money across borders, like Amazon, into a mandatory reporting agent. Under FATCA, Amazon must identify "US Persons" for the IRS globally or face a 30% penalty on its own corporate transactions. See defintion of "person" below.

2. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS)

The IRS specifically designed the W-9 and W-8 series forms and the automated "Tax Interview" infrastructure that you see on the KDP dashboard. They issued regulations under Title 26 of the US Code that require "Withholding Agents" (Amazon) to collect a Taxpayer Identification Number (SSN or EIN) before making payments. The IRS created the legal liability that forces Amazon to choose between interrogating you for an SSN or paying massive fines to the US Treasury.

If a book like this was released on Amazon...

Editor's note: ...nobody would buy it. This is how corporate-sponsored communists like Governor White Teeth operate. No organic book sales. Governor White Teeth's public image is being inflated beyond what his actual abilities are which is like using a book to gaslight Californians and Americans. It's like what Ralph Waldo Emerson once observed: "What you do speaks so loudly that what you say I cannot hear." Or what you write (ghostwriter/s). Governor White Teeth's book Young Man in a Hurry was published and printed by Penguin Press, while Porchlight Book Company acted as a bulk distributor rather than a publisher. Newsom's PAC reportedly spent about $1.5 million purchasing tens of thousands of copies from Porchlight at bulk rates, which were then distributed to donors as part of fundraising efforts. In this arrangement, Penguin handled production, Porchlight handled large-scale sales and fulfillment, and the PAC used the books as incentives, a structure that can significantly boost reported sales figures. Penguin Press is an imprint of Penguin Random House, which is majority-owned by the German media conglomerate Bertelsmann, with a minority stake held by Pearson plc.

'Money Laundering'? Newsom Used Donations To Inflate Book Sales

The book, published March 10 and centered on Newsom's upbringing in California, has reportedly sold 97,400 copies since its release.

By Luis Cornelio | April 19, 2026

California Gov. Gavin Newsom and his allies spent weeks boasting that his book, Young Man in a Hurry, became a "best-seller" within hours of its March release. However, a new report found those sales were largely driven by Newsom's own super PAC using donor funds.

If Washington DC is "an orgy-filled, cocaine-fueled house of cards"...

Editor's note: ...then maybe it is time to collapse? This is really not anything new to many who have had Washington under scrutiny for years. The sleazy shit that goes on in Washington creates control files on "elected" officials. Then it is easy enough to blackmail for concessions with sexually compromised "law makers." It isn't limited to "elected" criminals posing as legislatures either, toss the FBI into that toxic "house of cards" and collapse will start to feel welcome. First it's a private party and a few drinks, then some drugs, then banging someone's wife and then come the children - control file created. Then you're owned.

Former Congressman Blows The Whistle On Blackmail And Honeypots In Congress

By Tyler Durden | April 17, 2026

In a candid interview with Human Events editor Jack Posobiec, former Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) alleged that blackmail and sexual honeypot operations are far more prevalent than the American public is aware of.

Cawthorn, who was elected to represent North Carolina's 11th congressional district at just 25 years old in 2020, described the typical path these lurrid situations take. It often begins at donor dinners or late-night votes, when members unwind with drinks or head back toward Capitol Hill. While many lawmakers prefer socializing with fellow congressmen to avoid complications with staffers or outside interests, invitations can quickly turn strangely personal.

There is nothing new here with the...

Editor's note: ...British forward fire base in Israel run by the "cult of the chosen ones" created to cause conflict. The UK's trade minister, Chris Bryant is accused of misleading Parliament by claiming that British-made aircraft parts exported abroad would not be used by Israeli fighter jets, despite internal briefings indicating they could be. Set against the backdrop of ongoing scrutiny over UK arms exports during the ongoing large construction project going on in Gaza, official statements downplayed the potential military use of these components. There is little transparency with UK ministers not accurately representing the role of UK-supplied equipment for Israel's ongoing construction projects in Lebanon and in Gaza. The BBC also has a strong pro-Israel bias when reporting news on Israel's construction projects.

Britain is turning into a Zionist police state to protect Israel

The UK is pulling out all the stops to persecute a pro-Palestine activist group, including blanket gag orders and courtroom deception

April 18, 2026 | By Tarik Cyril Amar

Imagine you know about a brutal gang of serial killers openly committing one sadistic crime after the other. Imagine you recognize your obvious moral obligation to do something to stop or at least impede these crimes as best you can, but your country's morally perverse and politically corrupt authorities are in cahoots with the murderers, so you cannot simply call the police.

There are vast sums, potentially reaching into...

Editor's note: ...the tens of trillions of dollars, that have flowed into the U.S. government’s classified "black budget" (described as a "parallel system of finance", or a "financial coup d'etat") where limited transparency and fraudulent accounting have left large amounts of spending difficult to trace, raising serious concerns about systemic opacity in defense and intelligence funding. A significant portion of these funds may have been directed toward the construction of extensive underground facilities (DUMB facilities), and while this remains speculative, proponents of this view point to the scale of unaccounted spending and longstanding secrecy around classified programs as circumstantial evidence supporting this possibility.

Fun With AI #4: Trillions Into the Void - The Black Budget Black Hole That's Hiding in Plain Sight

April 17, 2026 | By SOTT

What if the real conspiracy isn't secret plots — but the openly insane way "democracy" funnels taxpayer money into unaccountable black projects?

Just a reminder of the premise of this little series of articles: AI cannot inject its own "ideas". It can only recombine what's in existing texts through predefined language patterns. To some extent, that can provide insights that look "new" (but hey, maybe they just look new to you because you haven't seen them before - doesn't mean that nobody has - the AI was trained on more texts than any of us can ever read), but it's not on the same level as what humans can come up with. There is clear limitation: the source material. Any AI output has to be based on that. Human thinking can go beyond that. So how "new" anything from AI is is basically a matter of semantics. The more important metric, IMO, is whether it's useful. And I'd say it certainly can be. Many of the answers are brilliant and capture the inner workings of the system we live in amazingly. And all explained in a clear, easily understandable way.

Both the critique of Iran negotiations...

Editor's note: ...and the broader historical argument raise the same underlying concern: why are politically connected figures like Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff who are both Jewish placed at the center of high-stakes diplomacy (also see Team Netanyahu/Trump Sinks Iran Talks; Kushner Beefs Up Rap-Sheet) despite clear questions about their experience and effectiveness? Rather than framing this around identity, the more grounded issue is whether U.S. policy is being shaped by insular networks of private influence and loyalty instead of competence and national interest. This echoes a wider skepticism about how power operates behind the scenes, both historically and in the present circumstances.

Christianity as a Jewish evolutionary strategy

BY LAURENT GUYÉNOT | APRIL 12, 2026

This article was posted on Kevin MacDonald's website www.theoccidentalobserver on April 5. I reproduce it here with a postscriptum.

Introduction

In recent posts, I have made a series of arguments that the Christianization of the Roman Empire has been good for the Jews (here and here) and bad for the Gentiles (here and here), and that it has paved the way for the subversion and subjugation of Western civilization by Jewish Power. Since Christianity is a Jewish invention, it is hard to resist the theory that it was part of a grand Jewish conspiracy (that "aggressive and vindictive conspiracy … against the rest of the world" that is written "plain and clear" in the Hebrew Bible, as H. G. Wells tried to warn us about in The Fate of Homo Sapiens, 1939). However, no matter how hard I look for some clue that Christianity was from the start a Jewish psy-op to alienate the Romans rather than to save them, I do not find it. The vast number of Jews (mostly Hellenized Jews from the Diaspora) who converted to Christianity in the first century runs contrary to that theory. I find no reason for suspecting Paul, the real founder of Gentile Christianity, of being some sort of Israeli asset trying to deceive the gullible Goyim into believing things that he didn’t believe himself. The fact that he wrote "This is the truth" (Romans 9:1) doesn't mean he's lying. Yet, we do find in his letters the conviction that with the massive conversion of Gentiles to Christ, "all will be restored to [the Jews]" in the end (Romans 11:12).

Jeffrey Epstein had interests extending beyond...

Editor's note: ...his known criminal activities into areas such as genetics and scientific research, including reported connections with academics, biotech initiatives, and discussions around DNA analysis and reproduction. In a The New York Times investigation, "Epstein expressed interest in influencing human reproduction", while also highlighting his associations with prominent figures and institutions. His activities are part of a broader pattern of interest in eugenics and related fields, based on documented associations and statements, while the overall scale and purpose of these efforts remain unclear.

International Public Notice: Confirmed

April 13, 2026 | By Anna Von Reitz

We are now able to verify:

(1) Russian technology captured and weaponized;

(2) Basic individuated consciousness breached;

(3) Telepathic communication achieved;

(4) Operation Cherubim Horizon initiated 2001;

(5) Project Venus Rising slated for 2026;

(6) Goal 1: collapse of all organized religions;

(7) Goal 2: "voluntary" eugenics.

How does this make sense unless...

Editor's note: ...the purpose is to manufacture the rise in prices of gas, fertilizer and food? Iran is threatened for weeks by the US with total destruction if it doesn't "open the Strait of Hormuz", so it does, and the very next day the Straight of Hormuz is closed by the very force making the threat, with the same warning of total destruction if Iran challenges the blockade.

A workable model

Editor's note: UK minister Chris Bryant misled Parliament about arms exports to Britain's forward fire base in Israel, revealing that Bryant told a committee British-made aircraft components would not directly benefit Israeli fighter pilots, while internal briefings suggested the opposite. The report highlights ongoing concerns that UK exports, particularly components linked to programs like the F-35, may still support Israel's military operations despite government claims of limited or defensive involvement, adding to broader scrutiny over transparency and whether officials have accurately represented the scale and impact of arms transfers.

This is what oligarchs do: They buy elections.

Editor's note: In the case of the Jewish oligarch Steyer, he dropped $100 million to buy the California governorship. Do Americans honestly think voting will change their circumstances? Steyer is facing accusations of hypocrisy over past investments tied to detention systems he now opposes. When elections are flooded with personal wealth (see everything is a rich man's trick), visibility and influence tilt toward the wealthiest candidates, not necessarily the most qualified. Even if legal, this dynamic undermines any remaining political fairness by turning campaigns into financial endurance contests, narrowing real competition and eroding public trust. Obviously, when campaigns are flooded with massive personal wealth, elections stop being about ideas and are bought through sheer financial power. Wealthy candidates like Steyer, the "climate candidate" (weaponized philanthropy), can saturate media until voters mistake repetition for credibility, effectively crowding out anyone without similar resources. The entire political process has become hideously distorted. Serious contenders get shut out before they're even heard, and the thoroughly corrupted system continues to bend towards elite interests the voting public know nothing about. At this point, it's not a "democratic process", it's a pay-to-play system dressed up as one.

New California Gubernatorial Frontrunner Caught in a Major Hypocrisy as He Releases This Outrageous Immigration Platform
