As it turns out, "Pax Americana" is unaffordable.
At least, to the USA.

For London/NATO, bankrupting the US is going to hurt some, but they will find a way to soldier on.
The US is not supposed to have a choice in the matter.

Message brought to you courtesy of the Uniparty getting rich off of the same system they have been running for 80 years.

This is a Fourth Turning. An event timeline that plays out over a decade or more. It is never easy.
The civil war will be televised...once its popular.

Iranian revolution not so much.

EWS was fricking stupid and boring



If we are to believe the stories, EWS was "edited" by the studio against Kubrick wishes for some unproven reason.
So, Belgium was afraid that they might be on the hook for seizing the Russian asset and would not go any further unless other members of the EU would join them.

Surprisingly, there were no takers...

No WW3 to cover for Europe going bankrupt.

This seizure was a sure thing with some countries, ie Bank of England, already taking loans out to bankroll Ukrainian theft.

I guess as long as it was someone else's monies, it was all golden.

We have to get the F out of NATO.

EU will not steal Russian assets

Let's wrap this thing up.
The Euro will soon dissolve.

Yes, they still make and sell tinsel. It is just hard to find some years.

Biggest surprise today beyond Core CPI plunge ?

Strength in USD given Trump is telling you he is appointing somebody who takes a chainsaw to Fed Funds & who got supporting CPI today


In due time, maybe the end of Vance's second term, we may finally be able to end the FED.

There is a reason why we just can't eliminate all the fraud all at once like Elon wanted to do. It would have put the whole economy in the tank.
It has to be done gradually. Years in fact.

Same with the prosecutions.

Not going to get enough appointments through with this Congress.

But we can break from Europe, and Isreal.

Those furniture stereos / television cabinet were nice, but ridiculously heavy.
Our stereo had a big sound that would fill the house.
quote:

Ukraine is losing the war of attrition.

And if the war continues they will continue to lose dudes that they cannot replace. The Institute for the Study of War says that a majority of Ukrainian battalions are down to 50% strength here in December 2025. That means they no longer have the ability to conduct major offensive operations, which means they are not going to be able to drive the Russians out of Donbas. So this idea that Ukraine is going to get a peace negotiation where they are able to keep all of their territory is wishful thinking.


Russia is in the driver's seat and is going for a grind it out type conflict. They historically have done pretty well in those types of conflicts.
Europe is going to keep fighting to the last Ukrainian.
None of this is new. And there are player with financial resources that we cannot imagine.

The amount of monies that Europe is holding that is Russia's is not Billions, but hundred of Billions.

When the bankers didn't like Liz Truss, tank the bond markets...

Now there are enormous holdings on the offshore Cayman markets.
Wonder who that's for?

I remember they switched filming up Louisiana after Katrina for some post-apocalyptic scenery…it turned out fantastic.


I felt that way after watching the 1st season of True Detective. That scenery is something else.

Very good adaptation of McCarthy's work.
Glad they left out the BBQ scene.

I am still blown away that Oprah made this a book for her book club.
And she got to have the rare McCarthy interview for her show.

Josh Brolin talks about becoming friends with McCarthy in real life and spending time together. Worth watching if you get a chance.

I believe that BM will get made and it will be this director that does it.

Donald had the opportunity to stop this the last time it actually did happen en masse with cities burning across the country and he stood by and did nothing.


First, you have to show the people why.


This is true. And also why the country had to go through COVID.

Got to show everyone how badly we have allowed the country to be hollowed out to where we are dependent on China for far too much.

Money laundering is swept under the rug and Zelensky & Co get to keep the ill gotten stolen wealth as part of the peace deal


I thought that this is a beautiful touch to the whole thing. Have Zelensky take the money and run. It's too much for him to turn down.

But the Euros are all just left with no one to poke into more war.

Nothing is done until Russia agrees.


This deal is how Russia will get their money away from Brussels...

Russia will agree to terms.
Russia and US are working behind the scenes together on this.
The EU is FAFO.
