I began watching the first vid of the ranting, insane woman in disbelief. Then the guy started walking nonchalantly back & forth behind her and I began laughing, realising it was a spoof, a send-up....it was, right?

Then Trump seated like a toy god, looking very holy & serious, with lessor mortals laying their hands on him in blessing. AI, right?

Please tell me this is all a sick, sick joke in the worst possible taste. Please tell me.

Otherwise, we're being ruled by insanity & pure evil. Repeat: INSANITY & EVIL!

I don't know. Just search "Paula White", there are some other really unhinged things she says:

Examples:

- https://x.com/Nance726/status/2029953120663695673

And the worst thing (last video)? That's NOT a rehearsal. There are actually people "praying"??

I almost wish that you hadn't replied No 1... that I could get away with thinking that all this is a nightmare, unreal, and that I'll wake up...that we're not heading into the abyss, possibly into nuclear oblivion.

But no. You insist on telling it like it is; with facts & figures & logic and pretty good prose & a bit of sometimes dark humour, to lighten the load.

Maybe it's your mission in life. They say we all have one. You'll go far, young man, if you so choose and stay true to yourself.

I'm close to the end of my life, a life that I now see as filled with abundance & grace (not always my view) and I give thanks every. single. day, whilst watching the madness of the physical , exterior world unfold. It isn't real though, just our projections.

I'm not religious, though have walked in awe in many of the great cathedrals of the world..to see & feel what it once was, the essence mostly now lost. However, this resonates with me from Rumi, 1207 -1275 who lived in ..... Persia!

"This place is a dream and only a sleeper considers it real

Then death comes like dawn and you awake

Laughing at what you thought was your grief."

Thank you for these incredibly kind words. They mean more than you know.

And yes, guilty as charged - I can't seem to stop myself from telling it like it is. It's a curse, really. But if I've learned anything writing about markets and metals, it's that lies have a price tag - and in markets, they show up as very expensive mistakes. So I'll stick with ugly truths and bad jokes.

Rumi reminds me of Tolstoy: "Life is a dream, death is an awakening". The Wachowskis built an entire film franchise around that same idea - that we're all asleep inside a constructed reality, and the real challenge isn't dying, it's waking up *while you're still in it*. Morpheus didn't offer Neo an escape from life. He offered him an escape from the illusion.

Maybe that's what we're all trying to do here, in our own small way. Not wake up *from* the dream. But wake up *inside* it.

Your words about abundance and grace are a gift. I hope to carry that same perspective when I'm further down the road. For now, I'll keep writing, keep digging, and keep cracking jokes about whomever asks for it.

Stay well.

"Maybe that's what we're all trying to do here, in our own small way. Not wake up *from* the dream. But wake up *inside* it."

Yep. Eckhart Tolle in his book 'The Power of Now" went to bed one night suicidal then woke up enlightened. He spent about a month on a park bench, just in awe of the Universe of which he was a part... full of wonder & amazement & love of it all.

Just Wow!

Take it easy No 1...don't rush...nothing to prove...no deadline to meet. No1 to impress.... if you have something to say ( my sense is you do) it'll flow naturally, at it's own pace, in good time.

Wish you well...

American "Christianity" became heretical in big part due to the popularity of the Scofield Reference Bible among protestant preachers in the 19th-20th centuries, which created the "Christian Zionist" end times cults that started arguing over when when the rapture would "save" Church.

It's Pie-In-The-Sky propaganda that ensures altar calls, new tithe revenue & a constant flow of "spiritual fire insurance" marks...

Prayer & meditation is a "personal" practice, not a public one, God will not be mocked:

"And when you pray, you are not to be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners so that they will be seen by people. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full." ~ Jeshua

Moreover, every 501(C)(3) church has signed over their rights to represent God, so that can represent themselves for easy profit...

Anyone that follows creed, dogma or scriptural interpretation of another and/or organization is missing the blessing of conscious contact with The Loving, Healing, Creative Power of Infinite Life.

Crazy blond forgot to take her meds that day I gather. She had better not let that happen again

The touchi feeli prayer thing is just the new normal now. Its this cult that meets in the white house and on tropical islands to pray and fondle children.

Don't pay any attention to them. They will eventually all go to hell where they belong

Novu's avatar

Have you ever been to church in your entire life

No1's avatar

Yes, but never to a cult like that... Ok I confess, the sermon is where I mostly doze off. But this is something else.

I go into churches often to use them as toilets

"Have you ever been to church in your entire life"

I got that as a reply to me.

Well, yes actually. I was a choir boy at 8, 9 10..had a beautiful soprano voice. The gifted organist was a pedophile and tried it on with me. The bribe was milky way bars but my mum had taught me well & I defended myself physically & vocally & he gave up. I never told my mum. I suppose I thought I was in some way to blame.

But other little kids did tell and he eventually got 5 years in the slammer and had a bad time with others inmates..beaten to a pulp I believe.

Other than that, church was fine & enjoyed it.

I wonder if it has occurred to these dimwits that the destruction of all that oil infrastructure is not going to magically reverse itself the day the war ends. A long, expensive, and painful rebuilding will have to occur. Global oil demand already pushes the limit of what the world can produce--with a significant amount of capacity out of action indefinitely, we are going to be suffering serious energy shortages worldwide for a long time to come, even if the war ends tomorrow.

Well it does add credibility to the forced population reduction theory...

Really good reporting!

Just want to add, I'm a farmer, and if this war lasts a while and mid easy crude stays off-line, famine is a real possibility. Industrial agriculture is top to bottom dependent on (relatively) cheap diesel and gas (fert via Haber Bosch). Will states start rationing to ag and trucking at the expense of everything else?

Still too cold here north of the 48th. Rest assured, they will come into the ground once temperatures increase.

Thanks Martillo! I like it. I like it a lot. I thought about dancing to the tune (alone) but it's 4:50 AM here. Decorum...

Trump is messed up and he has his cult following, Gabbard, Kennedy,

Hegseth, etceter

Wannabetee's avatar

I suspect Gabbard & Kennedy must be looking on all this with horror and trying to avoid the spotlight.

From my vantage, if you are a member of Congress or in any cabinet position, you are complicit and guilty AF. No exceptions. Empty Warheads all across DC. Guilt by association and participation.

This crazed Karen's unhinged ranting is literally why St Paul said women aren't allowed to preach in the Temple.

It's also why they weren't allowed to vote until the 19th Amendment.

This WAR might actually be over in less than 4 weeks I'm noW thinking is a distinct possibility.

Imagine that - and the victor will be the one defending - not the offensive ones.

~

But that is probably a pipe dream and this war lasts for months if not years, and the price of everything goes through the roof - just like the price of crude oil.

~

So fill your tanks and then only drive when necessary. Get your supplies while you can and don't trust your bank accounts. War is war - and tis fools who start a war with pompous ambitions and poor planning and visions of hegemony - proven to be delusional.

Hard times on the way - most deserved.

Moreover - how much you want to bet the price of silver starts going up? Let me list the reasons.

1. Silver is used in these missiles.

2. Silver is used in many industrial materials.

3. Silver along with gold has long been known as a way to safely invest during uncertainty.

4. The uncertainty of the situation has reached "over the top" proportions - and fools are making decisions that only will increase the value of silver and gold.

5. Fiat is based upon good faith and trust - and that is bankrupt evidently.

6. Iran's missiles are doing real damage - and the damage is only going to increase.

7. You kill the leader of a country and an elementary school evident - with innocents in attendance - you think you got any initiative on your side of harm and death?

8. Justified Retribution takes no prisoners.

~

Lets get this over with - tis time for some big changes.

No1's avatar

Knowing silver like I do? Probably $30 🤦‍♂️ (not investment advice, just cynicism)

Jim Fry's avatar

Flip side is that if oil gets high enough and remains elevated, anything not nailed down may be subject to liquidation pricing and sale, to gain liquid funds to procure oil. May be a wickedly viscious cycle incoming.

Buffalo_Ken's avatar

Well the price of oil at this moment per the means I have to check it is:

116.22 - up 25.32 - up 27.86% - that aligns well with the price of gas at the local station - I mean this is gonna hit home quickly.

Material updates! Thanks.

Although when I started reading I thought you had lost it till I got to the part where you showed you were quoting the psycho preachers around Trump.

Religious extremism on both sides. We're in such good hands.

No1's avatar

That was the point exactly 😉

You'll know me after a while. Can't be serious about anything. There's always a joke somewhere. And if your gut feeling says: he's gone off his rockers? Then I'm probably trolling you!

From a demented hair-sniffer to a messianic megalomaniac. You'd think they could've met a little closer to the middle.

Thanks again No1.

I’m Christian and can understand prayer, like any faith believer but these people are, in my opinion brainwashed beyond belief.

Looking forward to the next update and praying for peace for all people in war zones.

No1's avatar

🙏

Yup, this was nuts beyond anything I've ever seen. Great material to work with. Not so great once you realize it's the top brass that is doing/believing that.

This gives (another if you ever needed it) credence to the Epstein files.

Trump = the worst evil possible beyond any words ever defined !

Veracious Poet's avatar

Au contraire, petits moutons, it can & will get *worse*, until things are *bad* enough that actual *change* happens.

That is unless El Supremo Cheeto is the last POTUS...

Have you seen the IQ levels of the latest generations?

Have you heard about AGI's impact on employment, even though AGI's actual impact is 3-5 years away?

Have you listened to AOC and/or the Islamic communist leader of NYC?

The one thing I've learned about *evil* once it became mainstream in America is *never* underestimate how much worse, worser & worst the CULTure can devolve into...

*God speed & good luck*

Nice work..........There are no set of circumstances whereby the states united "wins." Why? 40 trillion in debt and 300 trillion in unfunded liabilities. Can't war broke. Can pretend for a minute, but that's it. Additionally, the U.S. has the Shia mixed up with the weak Gulf Sunnis. They are not alike. The Shia will fight and they can't be bribed. So that means real fighting head up. They don't have heart like that. Trust.

No1's avatar

But maybe that's the point after all? Go broke in an epic fashion? Take the world with you?

Rocky Vista's avatar

That's my take. The setup for The Great Taking, The Great Reset, and population reduction all at the same time.

Jean-Baptiste Guillory's avatar

Yeah, but all of that is predicated upon "people playing along." I mean, their whole "get down" is based in fraud, politics, and Messianic tomfoolery. As long as people give credence to these things by paying attention to them or participating, then they have to suffer the consequences of their allegiances. Choose a team.

You are correct I believe. See, not only the financial destruction, but the Messianic aspect is what is driving this thing. They did the Red Heifer ritual "on the sneak" a while ago. They did it in secret, that way when it failed they could conceal it. No messiah showed up. So, now they are on to the "destruction and calamity" that they feel will bring their messiah back." This too will fail, simply because NONE OF THAT STUFF IS TRUE OR REAL. We are literally witnessing mentally ill people with profound personality disorders running this thing, and they believe wholeheartedly in their delusion.
