A question for leftists: Why are all the evil people on your side?

 By Brandon Smith of Bob Livingston's Personal Liberty

The media these days is saturated with tales of "evil conservatives" and our heinous plans for world domination through "insurrection." In fact, most mainstream articles that cover recent events including the election and the protests at the capitol make a point to always mention "white supremacy" and "terrorism" in the same breath as the word "conservative." This is an entirely deliberate propaganda tactic called "word association" or "word redefinition;" change the subtext of a word or group label in the minds of the masses and you can often change the perception from positive to negative.

In other words, conservative = racist/terrorist. It doesn't matter if it's not true, it just matters that people are conditioned to subconsciously make the connection.

For example, I've had numerous criticisms of Trump and his administration over the years, but none of that criticism had anything to do with what leftists were regurgitating since 2016. To them, Trump's "racism" was a verified fact, yet when I ask any social justice warrior to produce an actual quote of Trump saying something racist, they can't seem to dig anything up. By extension, leftists have a bizarre obsession with Russia and the theory that Russia is an ever-present hand of god in U.S. politics, yet none of them can produce concrete proof that Russia has meaningful influence at all in American affairs.

The political left deeply believes in things that never happened because their movement is populated by people that are easily manipulated by word redefinitions and false associations. Are they victims of propaganda? Sure. Are they innocent? No. Refusal to question the actions and motives of your chosen movement is willful ignorance, and leftists are accountable for that.

Leftists are the only group of people that has consistently supported mass surveillance, mass censorship, mass violence, property destruction and looting as well as violations of individual rights through medical mandates and lockdowns. They call conservatives "insurrectionists" while they are the only people openly trying to dismantle constitutional protections and the Bill of Rights. So, who are the real villains of this story?

One of the core characteristics of conservatives is that we tend to argue with each other... a lot. It's one of the main reasons why we find it difficult to organize on the same scale that leftists often do. We might all agree on the source of the problems our country faces, but we rarely all agree on the details or solutions. 

This is a weakness, but it is also a strength.

I would much rather be a part of a movement that self reflects. I would much rather be a part of a movement that doesn't operate as a hive mind. There needs to be dissenting voices in everything so that ideas are challenged. If the ideas are found wanting by reason and logic, then they need to be addressed or abandoned. The political left has no concept of this, though.

Leftists are afraid to question anything within their own circles. To dissent on the smallest detail is to be a heretic, a traitor to the cause. They use the word "diversity" all the time, like a battle cry, but when confronted with true diversity (diversity of thought), they panic and react violently.

You cannot be black and also be a conservative, according to leftists. If you are, then you must be an "Uncle Tom" and a traitor. You can't be gay and be anti-social justice. If you are, then you must be a secret bigot that is confused about your place in the world. You can't be a woman and argue against feminism. If you do then you are actually a self-hating woman that has been "enslaved by the patriarchy." You can't be a Democrat and also support gun rights. If you are, then you support school shootings and must be excommunicated from the cult.

Leftists don't actually care about diversity; they only care that you have blind allegiance to the collective. Stray but a little, and the mob will come for your head. They love plantations, they love slavery… as long as they own the plantations, and they control the slaves.

A natural consequence of this Animal Farm mentality is that irony and hypocrisy SARCASM are lost on the followers of such movements. They project all their shortcomings and crimes on others; the devils they see in conservatives are actually the devils they see in the mirror every day. That said, the higher up you get in the leftist pyramid, the less it becomes hypocritical  AN EMOTIONAL REACTION and the more it becomes CONSCIOUSLY malicious intent.

The gaslighting, the word association propaganda, the selective memory hole they use to erase historical facts that contradict their ideology, the people at the top and their lackeys know exactly what they are doing. They don't care that their claims are hypocritical or AND THUS ALSO outright fraudulent. They know they are lying; they know they are gaslighting. They're not interested in being right, they are only interested in winning. WHICH IS THE VERY DEFINITION OF HYPOCRISY!"

There is much more going on here than meets the eye. There is a great deal of power and money behind the rise of hard-left ideology and there are certain people that benefit from its expansion. Leftists like to view themselves as the "underdogs" or revolutionaries fighting against "the man." However, every resource of global power brokers has been offered in support of the political left. The "Man" is the ally of the leftists; in some ways, he is even the creator of the leftist movement.

They aren't revolutionaries at all; they are the jackboots of the new world order. 

All the evil people are on their side.

It was globalist institutions like the Rockefeller Foundation and the Ford Foundation that funded different elements of the feminist movement and "gender studies" movements from the late 1960s onward. This included the Rockefeller Foundation's large donations to The Feminist Press's and the Ford Foundation's programs to indoctrinate teachers into injecting social justice talking points into their curriculum.

This is openly admitted in Alison R. Bernstein's book Funding The Future: Philanthropy's Influence On America's Higher Education. Bernstein is the vice president of Education at the Ford Foundation and the former Associate Dean of Faculty at Princeton.

That's right folks, social justice activism was paid for and encouraged by the so-called "patriarchy." This is the reality, and it never stopped. Even today SJW groups are funded by globalists. For example, as the mainstream media often tries to dismiss or ignore, Black Lives Matter was initially funded by the Ford Foundation and George Soros and his Open Society Foundation. BLM coffers were flooded with over $100 million from uber-rich white elites.

Again, this is a fact that even the dishonest spin doctors at Snopes are not able to deny. Instead, they attempt to use strawman arguments and sophistry to distract from the implication of extreme-left mobs receiving seed money from elitist billionaires.

But let's follow this path even further: Who gets the support of the mainstream media behemoths? Conservatives or leftists? The answer is obvious.

What about Big Tech platforms? Do they enforce leftist ideological standards? Do they censor conservative viewpoints predominantly or leftist viewpoints predominantly? The reality is that conservatives are deplatformed from Twitter, YouTube and Facebook far more than leftists, this is a verifiable fact.

When alternative platforms like Parler are built, are they allowed to simply exist? Of course not! The leftists rampage in an effort to destroy them, but the leftists would have no power without the backing of corporate monopolies like Apple, Google and Amazon. Not only does Big Tech aid the leftists in their jihad against conservatives, but the government does as well.

They don't just go after alternative platforms; they try to go after server providers. And when alternative platforms move to more freedom-oriented server providers like Epik, the leftists get government support in order to intimidate them also.

The collusion between government, corporations and political-ideological movements is the classical definition of fascism. And, just as the Third Reich enjoyed immense funding, investment and industrial support from the globalists in the decade leading up to WWII, the political left is enjoying immense support from the global corporate oligarchy today. So, again, I ask leftists: If you are the rebels... if you are the freedom fighters... then why are all the elites you are supposedly fighting against on your side? Why are the evil people your most avid allies?

To truth and knowledge,

AND NOW, FOR A FEW PITHY COMMENTS FROM YERLUVINUNCLEVLADDI:

What corrupts the world IS ONLY all-too-common hypocrisy.

Because hypocrites believe in having a right to have freedoms from their responsibilities without having to work for it, they also ignore their fears rather than learn from them, and so they pretend that mere hope is a plan, and that always leads directly to slavery. Their communist credo of "YAY FREE STUFF!" allows them to tempt gullible others to join them in shirking their responsibilities to have to earn or buy same, by offloading those responsibilities onto their victims, enslaving them by depriving them of their rights to defend them selves from the hypocrisy.

They believe that all is allowed (to them; for them to take from others is implied and ignored) except for that which is very specifically disallowed in advance, and so silence means consent.

Therefore they have to make up a shitload of rules (the creation of which lucratively keeps them employed as "our much-needed Expert Authorities") to detail in advance everything that's to be disallowed under their rule/s.

And there's no need for any of it - because the real, one and only Golden Rule of Law moral principle is simply the exact opposite: Do Not Attack First, which means that all is disallowed unless and until specifically agreed to in advance. So our only real right is to not be attacked first, and our only real responsibility is to not attack thereby innocent other people first, either - so we can do nothing either to, nor "for" them, without getting permission.

And that's way easier to understand and administer - and in fact, by living under that rule, there's absolutely no need for any "Expert Authority's" administrations at all, ever, anyway!

And so, there's no need - and there never was any real need - for complicated religious god-plots and strategies to send down any "messiahs."

All criminals are hypocrites, and all hypocrites are criminals. Hypocrites are ALWAYS all about the double standards, where no matter what the cause-and-effect facts are, they pretend they are always righteously heroic martyrs and victims entitled to a right to everyone's pity and acclaim without having to earn or prove it, while everyone who dares to disagree with that lie is their wrongfully villainous oppressor, entitled to only a right to everyone's anger and censure, and with no right to defend them selves from the hypocrites' lies, but only a responsibility to become and remain their slaves for their lack of pity and acclaim.

To play the victim, these paranoid ("You're always all out to get me!") masochists ("So I'm always your victim!") always pretend to control their own fears BY causing - and inducing others to help them cause - those very same worst-case scenario pains they fear the most! THAT'S both how and why they seek to control and enslave everyone else, "first" before others can "inevitably" try to enslave them (because their main crime excuse is "So what? You all do it, too!") and why, even once they get control, they still end up destroying everything and everyone else anyway!

Criminal hypocrites, aka psychopaths, leftists, collectivists, communists, etc want what everyone else has, and they don't want to have to work to earn it; so they demand this "equality of outcome" for them selves, but then they also simply have to sell it to others in order to form extortive "totalitarian" crime-gangs to 'totally' control and enslave everyone else, by claiming to want that very same equality of outcome to be available for everyone else as equally-helpless fellow victims, too.

And the way they pretend to justify that, is by asserting to gullible others the very most SHALLOW emotional meme: that everyone's original right to an equality of opportunity was denied to them by evil straight White alpha males, because superficially they are obviously in general larger stronger faster and smarter - i.e: more evolved for competitive survival - than beta-male and beta-female gays, non-Whites, and women. And that's all there ever really is to any of it.

Hypocrites are criminals who believe ends (promoting them selves as righteously heroic victims) justify means (criminally attacking everyone else first).

Hypocrites are not delusional. They are not "mentally ill," or "insane," nor do they hallucinate, despite their habitually delusive behavior showing all the exact same symptoms as what is mistakenly and commonly referred to by those "diseased victim" model or society-promoting terms. At most, they eventually atrophy their own brains by habitually choosing fantasy over true memory, which can only chemically strengthen the brain areas responsible for the former while degrading those responsible for the latter. They routinely delete their own memories ("THAT didn't happen!") and replace them with fantastic lies - an exponentially-increasing process where memorizing rafts of new lies are required to bolster the old ones, all of which must replace and displace their real memories of what actually happened. So, much like a perfectly healthy person who chooses to sit in a wheelchair for years will willfully atrophy own their leg muscles and so end up "needing" the chair, hypocrites, by pretending to be heroic victims, chemically atrophy their own brains by habitually making bad choices.

Yet hypocrites must still remain perfectly able to see the truth, in order to be able to so relentlessly avoid it when it applies to them selves, while also remaining so perfectly able to wield it against others when it applies to them. All criminals are hypocrites, and all hypocrites are criminals.

And the end result is that the whole world is trained by shallow hypocrites to always focus on symptomatic effects and never on causes, allowing the leftist hypocrites to always "fail upwards," simply because "there's no money in solutions!" 

Whee.

Gold Vs Fiat

The signs of inflation building up in the casedemic economy are now everywhere according to an IHS Markit report:

• "Inflationary pressures intensified as supplier delays and shortages pushed input prices higher."
  
  
• "The rate of input cost inflation was the fastest on record ... as soaring transportation and PPE costs were also noted."
  
  
• Amid stronger expansions in output and new orders, manufacturers experienced "significant supply chain delays, raw material shortages, and evidence of stockpiling at goods producers" that "pushed input prices up."

Yes, inflation is lurking in the shadows, and the government boys and girls don't want you to understand it is coming... and the mainstream media are not going to report it until it can't be ignored.

Partners in crime

Many things lie beneath the mystique of money besides greed and fear. Most Americans think of money in terms of dollars. This fact demonstrates the unbelievable power of propaganda over our thought processes.

Government(s) and their partners, the central banks, are involved in history's greatest fraud and deception. They are stealing and have stolen the wealth of the world with bank credit ("dollars") while forcing the deception upon the people that they work no longer to build real wealth, but to accumulate depreciating currency.

We "save" in depreciating currency. We buy life insurance in depreciating currency. And we leave our estates in depreciating currency.

Worth less

Did you know that in the progression of time, the U.S. currency is depreciating toward zero? The public is trained to accept this as "rising prices" or inflation, and rising wages. But it is more specifically depreciating paper money. The powers-that-shouldn't-be allow us to believe we "make more money" than we used to, but inflation means dollars are worth less, and so everything costs more to buy, and our purchasing power dwindles accordingly. However, they have learned through experimentation on us that it makes people feel good to have rising wages vs knowing their money has no value.

The entire world is now on this irredeemable currency standard characterized by inflation and resulting in competing devaluations. What that means is temporary advantage of one nation over another while all race toward bankruptcy. See the U.S. and China today.

It's the modern version of national and international suicide.

What comes with this? Wars and suppression of liberty. Are we not seeing this presently, and with great precision?

Gold allows no such monopoly of perception, and manipulation of value and credit by central banks. Gold is a natural creation extracted and fabricated by human production. It is not only long-term value, it is forever. It survives the deception and tyranny of political governments that always turn to dust.

As government dollars (credit) create immorality, gold supports morality and honesty. Gold is the substance of economic survival. It is the essence of privacy and the preservation of wealth.

The time will come again when we will think of gold in terms of value and money, not "dollars." This will be a move back toward the restriction of politicians and an expansion of and new birth of human liberty.

Governments hoard gold to stabilize their political and economic power. At the same time, they downplay gold to the people to destabilize their psyche and make them dependent on government credit which is being passed off as real money.

Gold stabilizes human emotions, dissipates fear of authority, and promotes individualism and human dignity. Government-created money (credit) destabilizes emotions, creates fear of unseen authority, creates political tyranny, and it expropriates the wealth of the people.

The critical point in awareness is reached when the people en masse realize that inflation is permanent. The result is that they quickly exchange cash for "things," as they did in Greece a few years ago. Greek businessmen exchanged their devalued and inaccessible currency for machinery and equipment, and people bought appliances and cars. Eventually, this results in economic breakdown and social chaos.

What do you 'know'?

There are many ways to extend the life of paper money. The foremost is by controlling information — a monopoly on what you "know." The monetary authorities suppress the price of gold as long as they can; they manipulate public perceptions with a fabricated consumer price index (CPI); they remove monetary indicators like M3; and they constantly talk about "managing inflation."

By now you have heard of the Federal Reserve's "2 percent goal" for inflation. And somehow, they seem to always come up with an official number right around their target. Curious? Not when they control the calculations and media reporting on the results of the calculations. And, yes, they constantly talk about the debt ceiling and limiting the national debt. All this is spurious nonsense, as anyone listening can hear the money printing presses roll in the background around the clock. Note that the government and its politicians never talk about the depreciation and loss of purchasing power of paper money. With the debasement of the currency goes the debasement of morality.

The U.S. Empire may indeed collapse into chaos sooner rather than later. If it does, that would be a good thing. We can go back to being "America" again. Even so, I suspect they know what we know — that collapsing currency finally creates crisis in spite of statist propaganda. Therefore, they must have contingency plans because their only purpose it to retain power at all costs.

The government reacts to its interpretation of public perceptions which are closely monitored, now very much more closely since "social media" has taken over everyone's waking consciousness. At some point, a segment of the population will become aware of the worthlessness of paper money and trigger an alert to the greater population. This foretells monetary crisis and social chaos. What will the government do? I would guess that the government will announce some sort of quasi gold standard which, at this point, will probably be fictional and it may or may not calm the people. If it does not bring calm, further action will be announced.

By this time, there will be many new population controls and perhaps some negative propaganda directed at "hoarders," gold owners, etc. We are already seeing people who are part of the liberty movement in this country hounded, oppressed, called "terrorists" and "enemies" who must be reprogrammed or exterminated. All is in preparation for this time of fake social crisis to cover up for the theft going on during the very real monetary crisis.

Precious metals

And guess what? At some point, the government will have a serious need for gold and silver to back a new currency. I don't think officials will announce that gold (the metal) will be used currently as money. Instead, a more likely event is to announce new currency with gold backing.

Silver money issued through 1964 will be used as emergency money because by that time we will probably be on plastic money since our current junk coins will have disappeared (according to Gresham's Law, which states that bad money runs good money out of circulation). Even now, this event is rearing its head. 

Even junk money has metal in it worth more than the exchange value. The little copper and nickel left in our coins, i.e., junk coins, are worth more as metal than money.

The government will need gold. Then, it may become known that there is no gold in Fort Knox.

What will the government do?

1. Confiscate gold in all bank deposit boxes and as much as it can get from individuals.

2. Nationalize all gold and silver mines.

3. Confiscate all exchange traded funds (ETFs); gold and silver. By that time, this will be a huge bag of gold and silver, and they are watching it. You don't think they will do it? Study history!

What are some options for you?

Currency is faith itself — a belief system. When you think of money or currency, you think of green paper, but 95 percent of "money" is computer symbols in bank computers. More specifically, your money is a pure psychological entity that evaporates as confidence fails.

Gold is substance. It is hard currency. It is the only hard currency.

Gold stands on its own.

If your pension or retirement fund is in the form of computer symbols in some bank, and it is, you might want to consider putting a percentage in gold coins to keep in your possession. It may turn out to be all you have. And brother, this is not fear hysteria when you understand how fast things can implode into financial disaster. ETFs may or may not hold gold. A bank may or may not give you access to your gold, and may let the government confiscate it from you. Keep your gold!

For gold to be all that we say it is, it needs to be in your possession. We don't mean in your "safe deposit box" at the bank, and we certainly don't mean in some "trust" account. It should be in your private safe with other valuable effects.

When obtaining gold, it is essential that you:

1. Obey all laws as far as possible.
   
   
2. At some point in time (you to be the judge), begin to sell mining stocks and buy more gold and silver coins. How will we know? Watch the propaganda and look for new controls.
   
   
3. You should already have food storage and barter items, as well as alternative power.
   
   
4. Educate those you care about as to the mechanics of survival. Not many will listen as long as they perceive no crisis.

Yours for the truth,

As economic fraud is exposed, the globalists are gonna need a bigger virus

 From Brandon Smith of the Bob Livingston Personal Liberty Alerts Letter

It is a general rule that corrupt economies tend to operate on faith and not on fundamentals. And to be clear, it's not so much about naive faith that the system is stable or functional. No, it's more about people having faith that the corruption and instability will never be exposed. Most people are not as stupid as the establishment and central bankers think they are — almost everyone knows the system is broken, they just refuse to consider the possibility that the fraud will fail, or that it will be allowed to fail.

In other words, the old mantra "too big to fail" is a lie. Nothing is too big to fail, and that includes the U.S. economy, the dollar and the elaborate Kabuki theater that keeps them both afloat. All it takes is a single moment, an epiphany that the Ponzi scheme is unsustainable rather than unstoppable.

I'm reminded specifically of the inflationary crisis of Argentina in 2001–2002.

Argentina's economy was highly dependent on foreign capital inflows, its currency peg to the U.S. dollar and they were precariously reliant on support from the IMF. The IMF openly supported the government of Argentina and their currency peg model, but foreign capital began to decline, and the peg became unsustainable. Without tangible growth in manufacturing and a strong middle class, an economy cannot survive for long. A top-down system based on illusory "financial products" and creative accounting is doomed to crash eventually.

All it took was for the IMF to criticize the policies they initially endorsed and funded and announced that they were removing financial aid, and all hell broke loose in Argentina.

Almost overnight, the Argentina peso plunged in value, interest rates spiked and inflation struck hard. People poured into the streets and civil unrest erupted. The IMF would later admit it made "errors" in its handling of the Argentina situation, but this was simply spin control designed to protect them from further scrutiny. The IMF avoided most of the blame and has been growing into a monstrous global centralization machine ever since.

I think we are witnessing the beginning of a similar end of mass faith in fraud in the U.S. The recent Robinhood short squeeze event as well as the current decoupling of physical silver prices from the paper ETF market have accelerated the timetable. Not surprisingly, these moves have forced the establishment to intervene to some extent to essentially stop traders from freely trading. Accusations are flying and deplatforming has ensued. The idea that the system is a functional fraud is gone; The world now knows it is a dysfunctional fraud, and collapse cannot be very far behind.

Furthermore, the collusion between banks, hedge funds and Big Tech is blatantly revealed. These relationships are supposed to remain hidden in the ether. They are obvious to anyone with any financial knowledge and sense, but they aren't supposed to be wielded in the open. Conspirators aren't supposed to admit to the conspiracy? Right?

Some people might say the establishment has been forced to unmask by activists. Maybe. But, as I have been warning for many years, when criminals start openly admitting to their crimes it is probably because they think that it is too late for anyone to do anything about it.

The point is bankers and globalists have ways of avoiding responsibility for the disasters they engineer. When the con-game breaks, they always have patsies to take the fall.

This sets up a bizarre dynamic in which the money elites that constructed the economy like a time-bomb are treated like victims (or heroes) and the people undermining the fraud are treated like villains and criminals. Are activist stock market traders and silver market guerrillas to blame for any crisis that erupts in the near future? No, of course not, but they will be blamed anyway.

That said, propaganda narratives and scapegoats may not be enough to save the bankers this time. They will never allow a major fiscal crash to develop in a vacuum. They need more cover, and they need to have the means to lock down the public to prevent civil unrest or rebellion from spilling over into their backyards. I have long suspected that the COVID pandemic was a useful tool in this regard. As I noted in an article published in January 2020:

Even if a pandemic does not kill a large number of people, it still disrupts international travel, it disrupts exports and imports, it disrupts consumer behavior and retail sales, and it disrupts domestic trade. If it does kill a large number of people, and if the Chinese government's response is any indication, it could result in global martial law. With many economies including the U.S. economy already in a precarious balancing act of historic debt vs. crashing demand and useless central bank repo market intervention, there is little chance that the system can withstand such a tsunami...

As we all know, global martial law in the name of "public health" is being established in most countries. The insane globalist rantings of the World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab have also been very revealing; Schwab and other elites have even called the pandemic a "perfect opportunity" to execute their agenda for the "Great Reset."

However, the globalists are highly fallible, and mistakes in judgment have been made. During the Event 201 pandemic wargame on a coronavirus outbreak (conveniently held two months before the real thing happened), the elites forecast at least 65 million initial deaths globally from such a virus. We are a year into the pandemic and nowhere near that kind of death rate. In fact, the death rate is so minuscule (0.26 percent) that the public is beginning to realize the lockdown mandates are pointless.

In the U.S., conservative states are moving on and keeping their economies wide open. Half the population is refusing to take the vaccines, and many members of law enforcement are refusing to implement lockdown policies. I don't think this is what the globalists expected at all. They needed mass fear and they are getting mass defiance. They're going to need a bigger threat or a bigger virus.

This is why I have been repeatedly warning that the talk of reopenings by Biden and other democrats is going to be very short-lived. I have predicted that Biden will attempt a federal lockdown similar to the Level 4 lockdowns used in Europe and Australia after a couple of months of relative calm. I based this prediction on the COVID "mutation" narrative being spread right now by the mainstream media and establishment cronies like Anthony Fauci. It is not hard to see where this is headed.

The globalists must have the "legal" option of restricting public movement as well as large gatherings, and they must have the option of surveillance on individuals 24/7 through contact tracing. This is the only way to prevent rebellion against the Reset and rising anger due to economic turmoil. The veil has been lifted; the conspiracy is being widely broadcast. Martial law alone would only inspire more descent, medical tyranny in the name of "saving lives" is the only play the globalists have. They have to have help from a large portion of the citizenry, so they must maintain the appearance that they are operating from the moral high ground.

The COVID mutation story is clearly the next play, and Bank of America economists appear to agree with me. They recently stated that they see little optimism in terms of a reopening of the economy and that hard lockdowns will return, possibly in March or April.

Another factor to consider is that the economic crash will have to reach a peak soon because Joe Biden now resides in the White House. If the crash happens soon, the pandemic can be blamed, Trump can be blamed and conservatives and liberty activists can be blamed. If the crash happens a year or two from now, only Biden and the globalists will get the blame.

Without lockdowns and scapegoats, the scenario will end very badly for the globalists. It might end badly for them anyway. Be ready for severe chaos by spring; I suspect the elites are getting desperate, and if they allow America to go back to normal and for the pandemic to end with a whimper, they will never get another chance at their precious Reset.

To truth and knowledge,

Brandon Smith                                                                                                                                                                   

Biden's presidency will be a catalyst for secession... and perhaps civil war

 From Bob Livingston's Personal Liberty author Brandon Smith:

Over the past few months, I have written a handful of articles that discussed what would probably happen if Joe Biden actually entered the White House and launched his administration. My initial belief was that Trump would refuse to concede and that this would be a trigger for national chaos, but I have also noted that Biden's entry is almost just as disruptive, as it sends a signal to the political left that it is "open season" on conservatives.

Of course, conservatives are not going to simply sit still and be purged and abused, they are going to strike back, and this sets the stage for a number of events and outcomes, some of which are completely unpredictable, even for establishment globalists.

First, we need to address how Biden and the globalists are going to create chaos so that they can then demand their own brand of "order."

In an article I published in October, I outlined why the ongoing economic crisis will accelerate in the wake of a Biden takeover. More specifically, I predicted that one of Biden's very first actions will be to implement a federal COVID lockdown, similar to the Level 4 lockdowns implemented in Europe and Australia. Such a lockdown, if Americans submit, would mean an even larger spike in unemployment, a loss of hundreds of thousands of small businesses as well as a huge loss in tax revenues for some states (mostly blue states).

Another scenario is that Biden leaves the lockdowns in the hands of states, but pursues a nationwide program for medical passports. The passport, of course, would require people to take the vaccine and accept contact tracing apps on their phones before they can receive one. At least 30 percent of Americans have said in polling that they will refuse the vaccines outright. Another 60 percent have said they are wary of the vaccines and need proof of their effectiveness. So, the medical passports will lead to millions of people being denied participation in the economy and collapse happens anyway.

In other words, the elites are going to try to hold the economy hostage while telling the public that if we don't accept medical tyranny it will be our fault if the system breaks down.

The economic crisis, however, started long before the pandemic, long before Biden and long before Trump. It has been building since the credit crash of 2008, and in the 12 years since, the Federal Reserve and other central banks have been pumping out trillions in stimulus while encouraging non-stop debt accumulation. Right before the beginning of the pandemic, the U.S. was suffering from the highest corporate debt in history, the highest consumer debt in history as well as the highest national debt in history.

What we are witnessing right now is the final phase of a collapse scenario that was more than a decade in the making, and Biden is about to help finish the job.

Biden will no doubt seek to hyperinflate the dollar in the name of offsetting the losses and keep things afloat for a short time, but the real agenda will be to trigger price spikes in goods as well as eventually killing the dollar. No amount of stimulus will stop the crash that has already been set in motion; the bailout measures from this point on are Kabuki theater, a show put on for the masses to make us believe that the government and the banks "did everything they could" to save us. The elites have no intention of stalling or stopping the collapse; their "great reset" demands it.

One's initial assumption would be that Biden would then take the blame for the economic crisis, but it appears that the establishment is going to set up a Herbert Hoover narrative and lay all the blame squarely on Trump and conservatives. In the past, I have noted that Trump's trajectory was very similar to Herbert Hoover's, in that he was a business mogul and Republican that pushed for corporate tax cut policies and also extensive tariffs.

Hoover also took the blame for the crash of 1929 and the advent of the Great Depression, even though the crash was primarily caused by the Federal Reserve's ultra-low interest rates and easy money, followed by a series of rate hikes (a fact which former Fed chairman Ben Bernanke would later openly admit to in 2002). This launched the three-term dominion of Franklin D. Roosevelt, one of the most communistic presidents in our history and the initiator of socialist programs that have since buried the American public in Quadrillions of dollars in unfunded liabilities.

Biden's latest statements indicate he will be introducing numerous executive orders to "correct the mistakes of the Trump administration," thereby implanting the idea that whatever happens next is Trump's fault. The "Reset" globalists and their central banking partners will have to bring down the U.S. economy very quickly under a Biden White House. Why? Because if they wait, or if they try to drag out the collapse and the worst happens a few years down the road, Biden and the globalists will get the blame. They must crash the old-world order now so that Trump and conservatives get the blame.

The strategy seems to be set up like this: Demonize conservatives as much as possible as quickly as possible so that our purge can be rationalized. When we are incapable of defending ourselves in the public sphere because we have been removed from the internet, the establishment and leftists can blame us for everything going wrong. The public would have no access to any other points of view or contradictory facts and evidence because the alternative media will be gone. We become the monsters... the bogeymen... and the source of all American suffering.

We didn't fall into the trap of supporting martial law measures during the BLM riots, so this must be Plan B.

Will this plan work? I doubt it. Just as the globalist rollout of the pandemic lockdowns and medical tyranny is failing to gain traction in the U.S. as huge numbers of people refuse to take the questionable vaccines, I suspect millions upon millions of Americans are already savvy to the propaganda schemes of the establishment and will not buy in. But that doesn't mean the elites won't try it anyway.

In early November I war gamed the Biden scenario extensively and concluded that if he were to enter the White House it would have to be followed by a massive erasure of conservative media platforms from the internet. I stated that:

If Biden does indeed enter the White House and take control of the presidency, expect certain consequences right away: A complete full spectrum censorship campaign of conservative news sources will be undertaken by tech companies and government. There is no way Biden and the democrats could keep control of the situation while conservatives are able to share information in real time. Do not be surprised if web providers suddenly start kicking conservative sites off their servers, just as Bitchute (a YouTube alternative) was kicked off their server for 24 hours on election night.

This is already happening, and Biden hasn't even stepped foot in the Oval Office yet. The coordinated effort by Big Tech to remove Parler, a Twitter alternative, from the web completely was not all that surprising, and it's only going to get worse from here on. Biden will support and defend the censorship efforts by Big Tech and the marriage between government and the corporate world will be complete.

As noted, the globalists have to silence us before they can effectively demonize us. The truth is on our side; facts and logic are on our side. They can't win the war of ideas if we are allowed to speak, so, they have to silence us.

Sweeping gun control measures would be issued by Biden, but only after the conservative purge from the internet is close to finished. If conservatives are isolated from one another in terms of communication, this makes it harder to organize a defense against aggressive gun confiscation. Biden will most likely try to assert Red Flag gun laws first, this would allow him to declare anyone to be "a threat to public safety" without due process, and have their guns taken away.

There is an obvious outcome to all of these actions, and I don't think it's farfetched to suggest that conservative counties and states will demand secession. At the very least, conservatives are going to continue to relocate to red states and red counties, just so they can continue to do business and make a living without government interference. There's no way that most red states or counties are going to submit to any federal lockdown mandates or medical passports, and economies in conservative regions are going to remain stable because of this while blue states are going to crumble.

Undoubtedly, Biden will seek to retaliate against conservative controlled areas of the country in response.

There comes a point when it is impossible for those that value freedom, logic and reason to live side-by-side with those that are irrationally obsessed with control. The American constitutional framework, in particular, was designed to prevent collectivism from overriding individual liberties, but if the system is overtaken through subversion and the Bill of Rights is violated, then maintaining the system is no longer plausible.

The best option for a number of reasons is to separate. Secession is often referred to as "running away" from a cultural problem, but this is an ignorant way of looking at it.

We are reaching a stage right now in the U.S. where it will be virtually impossible to voice political concerns without risking retribution. If you are a conservative, you will be targeted.

If conservatives and moderates migrate away from leftist-controlled areas and congregate in "red states "or red counties, then it will be nearly impossible for leftists to attack you for voicing your views. If your employer is a conservative, then he's not going to care if a leftist mob demands you be fired. If you own a business in a conservative community, then the people that live there will continue as your customers regardless of what leftists say about you.

Conservative and moderates must start to physically separate from the political left because this allows us to remain free to think and speak as we like, and it takes all power away from leftists to hurt us by sabotaging our means of making a living.

Secession is a more extreme measure, but it will become necessary if leftists refuse to accept that we are no longer participating in their games of fear and subterfuge. Leftists are collectivist by nature, and collectivists see people as property. Walking away is not an option in their minds. So, though we might successfully separate, this would only be the beginning of the battle.

The important thing is to first make sure that conservatives know that there are places they can go where their rights are valued and defended. If conservatives feel completely isolated and alone, many will give up, go dark and pray they are not discovered. This is unacceptable.

The advantage of secession is clear; by separating, conservatives force the enemy to come to them, on the ground they have prepared. The leftists will be the aggressors. They will try to present the situation otherwise, but it won't matter. We will have the moral high ground as well as the superior strategic position.

There are multiple narratives that will be used to demonize the secession movement beyond the terrorism angle. In particular, I think the government and the media will try to tie secession to "foreign entities." In other words, they will claim the secession movement is being funded or supported by Russia, or some other foreign power. This is what almost every government in history has done when faced with a viable secession that could threaten their control. They accuse the people who want to separate of being agents for evil outsiders.

It doesn't matter.

Conservatives cannot live with leftists, their cultism and zealotry have made it impossible. And we will not live under a globalist tyranny built around their reset agenda. Separation allows us to consolidate for defense and protects us economically. It is the only way to ensure that we remain free. The globalists and the leftists will try to stop us; they can't help themselves. They are insane, after all. This will lead to a war many of us have been expecting for quite some time. At the very least, with separation and secession, we will be in the best possible position to stop them. If we remain isolated from each other, the fight will be over before it even begins.

Biden's administration — the company you keep

 More from Bob Livingston:

In Aesop's Fable The Ass and His Purchaser, a man looking to buy a donkey wanted to test the animal before completing the purchase. So he put the donkey in his field with the other donkeys to see what would happen.

The donkey immediately strayed from the majority of the herd and cozied up to the laziest donkey of all.

Seeing that, the man led the donkey back to his owner. When the owner asked how he could judge the donkey's character so quickly the man explained, "I didn't even need to see how he worked. I knew he would be just like the one he chose to be his friend."

Fables are popular because they tell the story of the way things in life really work. In business, when someone takes over a department or company, that person promotes those he or she likes to positions of authority. The new manager seeks out those who have a philosophy, work ethic and disposition similar to his.

One would expect a president to do the same thing. After all, a president is elected — supposedly — based on the vision, ideas and proposals he championed during the campaign. It would then make sense that he would put in place those who supported his vision and would therefore be enthusiastic in working to achieve it.

So who are President Biden's friends, and who has he put in charge of the effort to enact his policies? And what do the friends he has chosen and the people he has put in positions of authority in his administration say about him?

The Washington Free Beacon said it succinctly: "Not only is Biden filling his administration with the same people who made such a hash of things from 2009 to 2017. He has also selected, for some of the most important offices, progressive ideologues who believe it is the bureaucracy's job to pick new fights in the culture war."

Following is a list of some of Biden's friends, advisors and people charged with enacting his policies:

• Biden has chosen perhaps the worst, and the least popular governor in the U.S., to be Commerce Secretary.

The Justice Department launched an investigation into Rhode Island's Health and Human Services Department because Gina Raimondo's administration rubber-stamped a massive overhaul of the state's welfare-distribution program that left thousands without Medicare or food assistance for months. The U.S. Agriculture Department levied an $800,000 fine on the state, and the ACLU sued the health department. And she chose an unqualified woman to lead her state's children's-services department.

The Governess co-chaired the failed Bloomberg presidential campaign and was "unqualified," as Democrats love to shout, for the original position Biden wanted to give her — health and human services. She is no more qualified for this position than she was for that role.

• Biden will nominate New Mexico Rep. Deb Haaland to lead the Interior Department. She'll be the first Native American to hold the post.

The problem is, she'll be leading the department that will be on the front lines of Biden's sure-to-be-harmful war on the nonsensical [read: fake] issue of "climate change." Biden will stop new oil and gas drilling on public lands and has said that he will rejoin the Paris Climate Accords — which lets polluters off scot-free and punishes American industry.

She said in a recent interview. "We don't want to go back to normal, right? We don't want to go back to where we were because that economy wasn't working for a lot of people."

• Biden will install California Attorney General Xavier Becerra to oversee the vast Department of Health and Human Services.

He's a proponent of socialized medicine for all. The Washington Examiner reports that, "As attorney general, Becerra has pressed Catholic hospitals inappropriately to perform abortions … he has used his power to persecute pro-life activists for exposing Planned Parenthood's trafficking in human body parts. His voting record in Congress was 100% pro-abortion." He's also an anti-gunner who wants to be able to tell you what guns you should and shouldn't be allowed to buy.

• Biden will choose a military officer for the civilian role of Secretary of Defense.

Retired general Lloyd Austin is the former CENTCOM commander, and Biden chose him because, reportedly, he had a good relationship with Joe's son Beau Biden.

• For his national security, Biden will choose former State Department official Jake Sullivan.

According to classified emails made public under lawsuits from the conservative watchdog Judicial Watch, Sullivan — soon to be a national security advisor, mind you — was deeply involved in the Hillary Clinton e-mail scandal which saw her and her associates mishandle classified information about America on a private email server.

• Biden wants Antony Blinken to be his secretary of state.

He's not just your average warmonger. He wants to strike Syria, Iran, and anyone else who hasn't been bombed as of yet. Responsiblestatecraft.org describes him thusly: Blinken "agreed with some of the biggest foreign policy mistakes that Biden and Obama made, and he has tended to be more of an interventionist than both of them."

• Biden has picked Gina McCarthy, head of the EPA under Obama and president of the leftist environmental group National Resources Defense Council, to become his "climate czar."

She's another climate propagandist.

• Biden announced Miguel Cardona would be his pick for education secretary.

The Washington Times reported that Cardona spent most of his short tenure in charge of Connecticut public schools dealing with the coronavirus pandemic. He "took an aggressive stance in favor of keeping schools open, a position that put him at odds with the powerful teachers unions."

Excellent, except that he's still a lifelong proponent of our non-education system, and wants kids in the indoctrination centers no matter what. "There is no substitute for in-classroom learning," he said in an interview.

Also, Susan Rice will reappear to ply her duplicitousness to domestic policy. Denis McDonough, Obama's chief of staff during the time Obama was trying to have the Syrian government overthrown, will be the secretary for Veterans' Affairs.

These are just a few of the folks who have occupied or currently occupy Biden's inner circle. He was passed off by the mainstream media as being a centrist and moderate, but many of his friends are anything but that, and some are quite radical. And when you parse some of his words or find video or audio from several years ago you know that Biden himself has some radical views.

But the media ignored Biden's love for Obama's radical friends and his own ties to communists. That, and Biden's misleading rhetoric led many otherwise thoughtful and good people down the primrose path, and they voted him without realizing what they were getting.

But as the truth gets out about his associates, the cover is coming off. He's becoming known by the company he keeps, as well as his own deeds.

Who are the terrorists, again?

 From Bob Livingston's Personal Liberty Letter, Monday, January 18th, 2021:

The Democratic Party is the party of tolerance. We are told this with regularity. After all, the party tolerates — promotes, actually — deviant lifestyles, the murder of babies in the womb, legalized theft by government, general sloth by the populace, terrorists, big government, coercion, mob violence and thuggishness (workers unions), central planning (socialism and Marxism), and crony capitalism (which is essentially fascism).

What it doesn't tolerate is free speech. In fact, it goes to great lengths — even engaging in criminal activity — and great expense to ensure that dissenting views are squelched, particularly the views from the right.

The progressives' ideas of unlimited government and unlimited spending can't stand up to arguments against smaller government and liberty. So the leftists resort to thuggery, intimidation and the courts to silence their detractors. Trump supporters at the Capitol learned from the best.

That includes Susan Rosenberg. Have you heard of her? She's now called an "activist" and a "writer" by the lamestream media.

What she really is, is a domestic terrorist.

Scott Walter of the Capital Research Center wrote: "Rosenberg, who started out as a member of the 1960s revolutionary group Weather Underground, graduated into even more violent, and arguably successful, forms of terrorism in the 1970s and 1980s — including bombings at an FBI field office in Staten Island, the Navy Yard Officers' Club in Washington, D.C., and even the U.S. Capitol building."

Yes, in 1983, Rosenberg didn't protest at the Capitol and walk through a hall with a lectern or sit at Nancy Pelosi's desk. Rosenberg set off a huge bomb inside the U.S. Capitol building. She was caught in 1984 while unloading from her car and into a New Jersey storage unit hundreds of pounds of dynamite along with myriad guns. She went to prison for 16 years.

She was not a "political prisoner" as the Left would have you believe.

In the present day, she served as vice chair of the board of directors for Thousand Currents, an organization that provides fundraising and fiscal sponsorship for none other than… Black Lives Matter.

The left's embracing — and funding — of convicted domestic terrorist Rosenberg is eerily similar to its embracing of convicted bomber Bill Ayers.

Ayers groomed President Barack Obama and launched his political career. Yet his association with a man who, also as part of the Weather Underground, set off numerous bombs — including one that may have killed a San Francisco police officer — did not hurt Obama's standing in the least.

That the left and Democrats would even embrace convicted domestic terrorists like Rosenberg — and, in fact, invite them into their inner circle and encourage their tactics — demonstrates that the progressives who have taken over the party are true enemies of America.

Now, president-elect Biden wants to use his (no)Justice Department to strengthen Obama's idea of a domestic terrorism czar, along with a whole department to battle the newest greatest threat — behind nonexistent global warming — to America: the white Christian male gun-owning liberty lover.

Soon after Obama took office, in 2009, the Department of Homeland Security issued a report titled "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment." Possible terrorists include people opposed to President Obama; those upset by the high unemployment rate; supporters of gun rights; those who believe in conspiracy theories involving a coming martial law declaration and the creation of detention camps; those who stockpile food, ammunition and weapons in anticipation of a collapse; military veterans; and Christians.

As the Washington Examiner points out, The Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act, "first passed by the House in September of last year, is gaining traction again. It would create 'dedicated domestic terrorism offices within the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation to analyze and monitor domestic terrorist activity and require the Federal Government to take steps to prevent domestic terrorism,' according to the bill's language."

The target is always liberty-loving Americans. Also, the powers-that-shouldn't be devote extra scrutiny to Christians who believe the Bible is God's word, Christian "fundamentalists" (whatever those are), Americans who believe the country was founded on the principles of liberty and individual freedom (it was) and those who believe the Constitution stands as the law of the land (it does, even though it's now ignored).

Biden will only continue to advocate for the notion that if you are white, or Christian, own guns, believe the Constitution is the law of the land and not what a majority of a group of nine robe-wearing Satanists say the law is, oppose oppressive totalitarian government, advocate for low taxes and/or are against the Federal Reserve, etc., then you are a domestic terrorist worthy of indefinite detention or worse.

How have we come to this point, that free Americans could be viewed as terroristic enemies in the very nation their forefathers created? Part of the answer is that America has been subjected to a long-term, clever process of demoralization and destabilization from within, as occurred on a more speedy schedule in South Africa.

Another part of the answer is to be found in the fact that the two-party system has been compromised and subverted. Both the Republican "big tent" strategy and the Democratic "diversity" appeal are actually the same.

It is utterly unacceptable to we who love liberty that the two parties have conspired to destroy the Constitution and bring the United States into a totalitarian New World Order. In the last 12 years, the Obama presidency, the Republican-majority Congress and the black-robed U.S. judiciary have combined to cut back constitutional and civil liberties more than any other comparable period in history. The federal government is a Bigger Brother than ever and its two busy hands are the Republican and Democratic parties...

Yours for the truth,
