  58. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>This article was originally published by<a href="https://www.naturalnews.com/2024-05-03-immunology-expert-warns-everyone-jabs-die-within-years.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Cassie B. at Natural News. </a></em></p>
  59. <p>One of the world&#8217;s top immunology experts is cautioning that individuals who received mRNA COVID-19 vaccines could die within the next five years.</p>
  60. <p>The warning comes from Dr. Dolores Cahill, who has a quarter century of experience with the use of antibodies and proteins in biomedical applications. As a professor of translational science at the University College Dublin School of Medicine&#8217;s Conway Institute, she and her research team are known for their groundbreaking work in high throughput array technology and diagnostics, medical and biological research. Before that, she worked for the renowned Max Planck Institute of Molecular Genetics in Berlin.</p>
  61. <p>Dr. Cahill has had reservations about the vaccines since the beginning, warning that they could have a devastating effect on human health. While many people were concerned about the potential for unknown side effects in the long term, Dr. Cahill’s concerns are far more dire; she has been warning that they will eventually kill everyone who has received <a href="https://slaynews.com/news/renowned-scientist-all-covid-vaxxed-will-die-3-5-years/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">even just a single dose</a>.</p>
  62. <p>Although she first made the disturbing warning back in 2021, videos of her explaining her theory have been circulating online more often lately as more and more signs point to those who have been vaccinated experiencing a slew of health problems.</p>
  63. <p>Not surprisingly, Dr. Cahill found herself removed from the mainstream social media platforms over the warning, like many people who voiced reservations about the jabs. Moreover, the decorated researcher was labeled a conspiracy theorist by the mainstream media, who worked overtime to protect Big Pharma’s interests at the height of the pandemic and continues to do so.</p>
  64. <h2>Top virologist warns of impending collapse</h2>
  65. <p>Other leading experts have made <a href="https://slaynews.com/news/top-virologist-warns-massive-tsunami-death-among-vaccinated-imminent/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">similar warnings</a>, with Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche, a world-class virologist, cautioning that a “massive tsunami” of “death” and “chaos” will hit the vaccinated population.</p>
  66. <p>He said that it could collapse hospitals and lead to economic, social, and financial chaos.</p>
  67. <p>Bossche believes that people’s vaccine-compromised immune systems will lead to a slew of illnesses, and the surge of cancer diagnoses we are seeing now will give way to a more chronic phase that ends with “a hyper-acute phase, a huge, huge wave.”</p>
  68. <p>He explained: “The thing I want your audience to understand, what we will be facing in the hyper-acute Covid crisis that is imminent, is that we will have to build a completely new world…”</p>
  69. <p>He appears to have no doubt that this is in the cards, stating: “It’s very strange for me to make such statements, but I’m not hiding it because I’m two hundred percent convinced that it will happen.”</p>
  70. <p>The scenario that he is describing is the worst possible outcome imaginable from the global push for COVID-19 vaccines, and should it come to pass, it is horrifying to think that authorities around the world could place people in so much danger.</p>
  71. <p>However, Bossche believes that the huge global scale of rapidly accelerating diseases and deaths will simply be too big to cover up and the responsible parties will be exposed.</p>
  72. <p>“However, if you do this at the very large scale, like what has happened with this mass [Covid] vaccination campaign, the truth will surface.</p>
  73. <p>“And those who have committed these crimes who have been lying to the people, who have not been taking care of the health and safety of the people, will be severely, severely punished…”</p>
  74. <p>He believes that eventually, the world will realize that everyone has been subjected to a broad experiment of gain of function research with human subjects.</p>
  75. <p>“This will be something that will be reported in history for many <a href="https://vaccineholocaust.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">many generations</a> to come,” he added.</p>

  107. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The ruler of France, Emmanuel Macron, has been parroting some ridiculous ideas about involving the West further in the war between Russia and Ukraine. If any of the NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) members actually follow through with this insanity, it will ignite World War 3.</p>
  108. <p>Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto agreed with this assessment. He has condemned the latest remarks from Macron about the option of sending troops to Ukraine and has warned such a move could ultimately spark an all-out nuclear war.</p>
  109. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/macrons-threat-to-send-troops-to-ukraine-was-a-wake-up-call-to-counterparts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Macron’s Threat To Send Troops To Ukraine Was A “Wake-Up Call” To Counterparts</a></p>
  110. <p>While speaking to French <a href="https://www.rt.com/news/596980-nato-macron-ukraine-war/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">broadcaster <em>LCI</em> as reported by <em>RT</em> on Thursday,</a> Szijjarto was asked for his take on Macron’s renewed threat to deploy his country’s troops to back up Kiev against Russia. The diplomat strongly condemned the idea, saying that the French leader’s comments themselves have contributed to escalating the situation.</p>
  111. <p>“If a NATO member commits ground troops, it will be a direct NATO-Russia confrontation and it will then be World War Three,” Szijjarto told the broadcaster.</p>
  112. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/russia-arming-ukraine-with-f-16s-could-start-a-nuclear-war" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Russia: Arming Ukraine With F-16s Could Start A Nuclear War</a></p>
  113. <p>Russia has repeatedly warned the West of further interference, and the West continues to interfere. So far, Russia has exercised restraint while focusing on destroying the equipment and weapons sent to Ukraine.</p>
  114. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/a-u-s-supplied-himars-system-destroyed-by-russia-in-donbass" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A U.S.-Supplied HIMARS System Destroyed By Russia In Donbass</a></p>
  115. <p>Macron made newer remarks regarding boots on the ground in an <a href="https://www.economist.com/europe/2024/05/02/emmanuel-macron-in-his-own-words-english" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview with <em>The Economist</em> </a>that was published on Thursday. He doubled down on previous statements about the prospect of deploying French troops to Ukraine. The president said his original remarks, made earlier this year, were a “strategic wake-up call for my counterparts.” He suggested that Paris could deploy troops “if the Russians were to break through the front lines” and a request for help came from Kiev.</p>
  116. <p>“In peacetime, it would be different, but in wartime such statements can be misinterpreted and have serious consequences,” Szijjarto stated, warning that, should the situation escalate into a global nuclear war, “it will be over for everyone.”</p>

  149. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>This article was originally published by<a href="https://mises.org/mises-wire/governments-could-stop-inflating-if-they-wanted-they-wont" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Daniel Lacalle at The Mises Institute. </a></em></p>
  150. <p>Price inflation is no coincidence. It is a policy. Governments, along with their so-called experts, attempt to persuade you that price inflation stems from anything other than the consistent, albeit slower, rise in aggregate prices year after year. Issuing more currency than the private sector demands, thus eroding its purchasing power and creating a constant annual transfer of wealth from real wages and deposit savings to the government.</p>
  151. <p>Oil prices are not a cause of inflation but a consequence. Prices increase as more units of the currency used to denominate the commodity shift to relatively scarce assets. Therefore, oil prices do not cause inflation; they are one of the signals of currency debasement. Furthermore, if oil prices caused inflation, we would go from inflation to deflation quickly, not from elevated inflation to slower price increases.</p>
  152. <p>The same goes for all the causes that governments and their agents try to use as an excuse for rising prices. Most are just manifestations, not causes of inflation. Even if the global economy were dominated by three evil and stupid oligopolistic businesses, they would not be able to increase aggregate prices and maintain an annual increase if the quantity of currency in the system were to remain equal. Why? Two things would happen. First, those three monopolistic evil corporations would see their working capital soar because citizens would not have enough units of currency to pay for all they produce. Two, the rest of the prices would decline as there would be a significantly lower number of units of currency to purchase other goods and services.</p>
  153. <p>Even a group of quasi-monopolistic corporations cannot make all prices rise in unison and consolidate the annual level, only to continue rising. However, the monopolistic issuer of the currency, the government, can make all prices rise while at the same time diminishing the purchasing power of the units of state debt that they issue.</p>
  154. <p>It is surprising to see how some so-called experts say that a few large corporations make all prices rise but deny that the state that monopolizes the creation of money is the cause of price inflation.</p>
  155. <p>Governments are at the root of rising prices. While banks can generate money—credit—through lending, they rely on projects and investments to support these loans. Banks cannot create money to bail themselves out. No financial entity would go bankrupt then. In fact, banks’ largest asset imbalance comes from lending at rates below the cost of risk and having government loans and bonds as “no-risk” investments, two things that are imposed by regulation, law, and central bank planning. Meanwhile, the state does issue more currency to disguise its fiscal imbalances and bail itself out, using regulation, legislation, and coercion to impose the use of its own form of money.</p>
  156. <p>Monopolies cannot simply drive up prices unless they are able to force consumers to use their products without any decline in demand. We also must understand that destructive and inefficient monopolies can only exist if the state imposes them. In any other situation, those monopolies disappear due to competition, technology, and cheaper imports from other nations. So, which is the only monopoly that can force consumers to use their product regardless of the real demand for it? Government fiat money.</p>
  157. <p>The government is the largest economic agent and therefore the most important driver of aggregate demand, as well as the issuer of currency. The government can end today’s high price-inflation rates at any time by eliminating the unnecessary spending that causes the deficit, which is the same as money printing. Taxing the private sector to cut price inflation is like starving the children to make the fat parent lose weight.</p>
  158. <p>If Senator Warren and President Biden were right and corporations were to blame for rising inflation, competition, cheaper imports, and a decline in demand, they would have taken care of their unjustified prices. Only the government can cause and perpetuate inflation, using the central bank as its financial arm and regulation as the imposition of the state’s IOU (currency) as the “lowest-risk asset” in banks’ assets. The government creates the currency and imposes it, and when its purchasing power declines, it blames the economic agents that are forced to use its form of money.</p>
  159. <p>MMT defenders and neo-Keynesians say that the government can issue all the currency that they need and that their limit is not fiscal (deficit and debt) but price inflation. It makes no sense because price inflation is the manifestation of an unsustainable fiscal problem, reflected in the vanishing confidence in the currency issuer. It is, literally, like a giant corporation issuing debt endlessly and thinking nothing matters. It is a subterfuge to implement the constant increase in size of government in the economy, knowing that once it controls a large part, it is virtually impossible to stop the state.</p>
  160. <p>Stephanie Kelton and others say the government should spend all it wants and, if price inflation rises, tax the excessive money away. This is funny. So, the government increases size on the way in, spending and diluting the purchasing power of the private sector’s earnings and savings, and then taxes the private sector, thus increasing the size of government on the way out. Furthermore, there is no government that would recognize that price inflation comes from spending too much, so the destruction of the private sector continues and the diminishing confidence in the currency extends, as history has proven numerous times.</p>
  161. <p>Governments cannot tax away the price inflation they have created by bloating spending. They can only weaken the private productive sector further and worsen the economic situation and the price inflation outlook.</p>
  162. <p>There is no such thing as perennial monetary sovereignty. Like any form of debt, currency demand disappears with the government’s solvency and the economic weakness of the private sector consumed by taxes. Once the government destroys confidence in the currency as a reserve of value, the private sector will find some other way to make transactions outside of the imposition of a state-issued currency.</p>
  163. <p>When governments present themselves as the solution to price inflation with large spending programs and subsidies, they are only printing more money, like putting out a fire with gasoline.</p>
  164. <p>Biden says the government has a plan to cut price inflation, but all they have done is perpetuate it, making citizens poorer and the productive sector weaker.</p>
  165. <p>If Biden wants to cut price inflation, all he must do is eliminate the deficit by cutting expenditures. The reason why governments should never oversee monetary policy and be allowed to monetize all deficits is that no administration will cut its size to defend citizens’ wages because nationalization by monetary inflation and taxes is the goal of interventionism: to create a dependent and hostage economy.</p>

  200. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Israel has reportedly struck a target near Damascus in Syria. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) struck a building that was being used by Syrian security forces on Thursday. The attack killed eight Syrian soldiers.</p>
  201. <p>Tensions continue to rise in the Middle East despite the lackluster tit-for-tat attacks of a few weeks ago.</p>
  202. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/israel-uses-limited-scope-attack-on-iran" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Israel Uses “Limited Scope” Attack On Iran</a></p>
  203. <p>Iran&#8217;s restraint after the &#8220;limited scope&#8221; attack by Israel is the only thing that prevented a wider conflict.</p>
  204. <blockquote><p>The reported attack took place amid continuing tensions between Israel and Iran, as well as Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza, which is on track to enter its seventh month next week. Israel has accused Iran of arming and guiding Hamas and pro-Palestinian militias based in Syria, Iraq, and Lebanon. Tehran, however, claims that Hamas and aligned groups act independently. <a href="https://www.rt.com/news/596918-israel-strikes-syria-compound/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>-RT</em></a></p></blockquote>
  205. <p>The Israeli authorities have not yet commented on the attack, but West Jerusalem rarely acknowledges strikes outside of its territory. Iran has been threatening Israel, but seems to be responding in a more mild capacity,</p>
  206. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/iran-it-is-not-clear-whether-anything-will-remain-of-israel" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Iran: “It Is Not Clear Whether Anything Will Remain” Of Israel</a></p>
  207. <p>While Israel attempts to wipe Hamas off the map, Iran continues to threaten to do the same to Israel.</p>
  208. <p>Israel was also the victim of a friendly fire recently. A volley from an IDF tank into a building in Gaza where IDF reservists were taking cover killed two and injured two others, an internal investigation has reportedly found.</p>
  209. <p><a href="https://www.rt.com/news/596893-israeli-troops-killed-friendly-fire-gaza/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to a report by <em>RT,</em></a> citing IDF estimates, noted that out of the 263 confirmed Israeli military fatalities since the start of the operation last October, at least 43 had fallen victim to ‘friendly fire’ and various accidents. The report listed poor communication as well as personnel fatigue and inattentiveness as some of the reasons.</p>
  210. <p>Israel launched its massive offensive in the densely-populated Palestinian enclave following the deadly October 7th incursion by Hamas militants, which claimed the lives of an estimated 1,200 Israelis, mostly civilians. Israel’s retaliatory ground operation and air bombardments have so far killed more than 34,000 people, according to Gaza authorities.</p>

Powell has done what he can to stop hyperinflationary trends that seemed unhinged in 2021, and he has certainly taken bold and necessary actions. However, he can&#8217;t do anything (and shouldn&#8217;t) about demographic trends that have caused baby boomers to retire in mass numbers, partly due to the virus and partly because their asset portfolios have surged, along with their real estate holdings.</strong></p>
  235. <p>We know the baby boomers are a large generation, as well as the wealthiest, but that Generation X is much smaller. This is causing a huge shortfall in working hands, just as Trump cut taxes and began bringing industry back; Biden doubled-down on this and his administration has stimulated the American economy in ways that only WW2-era presidents can claim.</p>
  236. <p><strong class="blue" style="color: #3f75ef;">The United States is in desperate need of working hands and, instead of opening their arms to immigrants that respect western values and adore liberty, the administration has simply decided to change American society for good and just look away, as millions cross the border illegally.</strong></p>
  237. <p>I won’t go into that and why it&#8217;s happening (to create a permanent Democratic majority in swing states), but I will say immigration won&#8217;t solve the worker shortfalls – they are simply too big.</p>
  238. <p><strong>In other words, the participation rate, now at 63%, must alter dramatically, or we are going to see wages rising to attract baby boomers to stay in the workforce for years longer.</strong></p>
  239. <p>The US budget deficit is now at 6% of GDP!</p></div>

  253. <p><strong class="blue" style="color: #3f75ef;">5G radiation is an Invisible Threat – it&#8217;s not merely a tool for faster internet speeds, but many believe it is intentionally designed to weaken the human immune system, leaving us vulnerable to manipulation and exploitation by those in power.</strong></p>

  255. <p>They are present in various forms: natural sources, like Earth&#8217;s magnetic field, and human-made sources, such as power lines, electrical appliances, and wireless communication devices.</p>
  256. <p><strong>It all comes down to their frequency and wavelength.</strong></p>
  257. <p>Ionizing Radiation has enough energy to remove tightly bound electrons from atoms, leading to ionization. These include X-rays, which are known to cause cellular damage.</p>

  294. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>This article was originally published by <a href="https://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/an-absolutely-enormous-economic-shift-of-historic-proportions-is-now-taking-place-right-in-front-of-our-eyes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog. </a></em></p>
  295. <p>Can you feel it too?  Over the past few weeks, I have heard from so many readers who are deeply troubled about the economic conditions where they live.  In some cases, sales are way down.  In other cases, it seems almost impossible to find a decent job.  It is almost as if a tremendous chill descended upon the U.S. economy as the second quarter of 2024 began.</p>
  296. <p>Yes, economic conditions have certainly not been good for a few years, but it appears that an absolutely enormous economic shift of historic proportions is now taking place right in front of our eyes.  Other than the early stages of the pandemic, we haven’t seen anything like this since 2008 and 2009.</p>
  297. <p>Let me give you an example that will illustrate what I am talking about.  A reader who lives near Seattle recently wrote me about the horrible downturn that she is witnessing in the tech industry, and she said that I could share this information with all of you…</p>
  298. <blockquote><p>I live in the tech corridor outside of Seattle and practically no one can find a job in tech. Apparently the costs of AI processors and servers are so expensive that large tech companies are laying off workers to accommodate for the increased infrastructure costs. I would estimate that 50 percent of the people I know in tech are unemployed including myself and my spouse. In addition they are laying off both FTEs and contractors and not backfilling the positions. The problem is exacerbated if you’re over 40 because they don’t want to compensate for experience. In fact experience seems to be working against people. Not to mention AI taking over roles like technical writing and marketing communications. It’s getting really bad out there and the large companies play along with the media. I’ve met with several ex colleagues who have had their entire teams laid off and former FTEs who have had to take major pay cuts as contractors. I’ve also heard of more rounds of layoffs coming up. I went over to Microsoft the other morning to have coffee with an ex colleague and it’s a ghost town. No one in conference rooms or offices. Maybe people are working from home but it sure felt very different.</p></blockquote>
  299. <p>That email resonated with me so strongly, because she is right.</p>
  300. <p>Vast hordes of tech workers have already been laid off, and more will be hitting the bricks soon.</p>
  301. <p>But the tech industry is supposed to be one of our economic bright spots.</p>
  302. <p>If things are this bad for the tech industry, what does this say about the economy as a whole?</p>
  303. <p>Most of the jobs that are still available at this point pay very little.  Jobs that actually pay enough to support a middle-class lifestyle have been disappearing, and millions of white-collar workers find themselves on the outside looking in.  The following comes from a Business Insider article entitled <a title="“Welcome to the white-collar recession”" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hiring-slump-professional-white-collar-jobs-recession-high-salary-2024-4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">“Welcome to the white-collar recession”</a>…</p>
  304. <blockquote><p>Over the past year or so, pretty much everyone who’s looked for a job has told me the same thing: The job market is brutal right now. They’ve applied to dozens if not hundreds of openings, only to get one or two callbacks. No one’s hiring, they tell me. I’ve never seen it this bad.</p></blockquote>
  305. <p>Yes.</p>
  306. <p>I have heard the same things over and over again too.</p>
  307. <p>And it is getting worse with each passing day.</p>
  308. <p>On Wednesday, we learned about even more layoffs <a title="at Google" href="https://nypost.com/2024/05/01/business/google-lays-off-200-workers-shifts-jobs-to-mexico-and-india-in-latest-restructuring/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">at Google</a>…</p>
  309. <blockquote><p>Google fired approximately 200 employees and relocated some of the jobs overseas – the latest sign of a long-running effort by the Big Tech firm to cut costs and restructure itself.</p>
  310. <p>The job cuts — announced internally on the eve of Google’s blowout first-quarter earnings report — targeted members of Google’s “core” team, which works on the “technical foundation behind the company’s flagship products” as well as the online safety of users and its global IT infrastructure, according to its website.</p>
  311. <p>At least 50 of the roles were based at Google’s headquarters in Sunnyvale, Calif. Google is expected to hire replacement workers for the roles in Mexico and India, CNBC reported, citing a review of internal documents.</p></blockquote>
  312. <p>Large companies all over America are looking to “trim the fat”, and that often means giving the axe to expensive older workers.</p>
  313. <p>There is very little loyalty in the corporate world today.  You may have given 20 years of your life to a company, but the moment you become expendable they will dump you like a hot potato.</p>
  314. <p>Millions of small businesses are really struggling right now too.</p>
  315. <p>During the month of April, 43 percent of all small business renters in the United States were not able to pay their rent in full.  The last time we witnessed anything like this was during the lockdowns that were instituted <a title="during the early stages of the pandemic" href="https://www.newsweek.com/small-businesses-crisis-rising-numbers-unable-pay-rent-1895480" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">during the early stages of the pandemic</a>…</p>
  316. <blockquote><p>A significant number of small businesses across the nation are struggling to pay rent due to skyrocketing costs, a recent study by business networking platform Alignable found.</p>
  317. <p>The company’s latest Small Business Rent report, published on Friday, found that 43 percent of small business renters in the U.S. were unable to pay their rent in full and on time in the month of April. Such a high delinquency rate hasn’t been reported in the U.S. since March 2021, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, when it reached 49 percent.</p>
  318. <p>The delinquency rate was also four percentage points higher than in March, making it the largest month-over-month surge in over a year, according to data analyzed by Alignable.</p></blockquote>
  319. <p>We don’t have a disease to blame this time around.</p>
  320. <p>Sadly, conditions are only going to get tougher for small businesses in the months ahead as sales dry up.</p>
  321. <p>Meanwhile, the total number of retail stores in the U.S. closed so far in 2024 <a title="is up to nearly 2,600" href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/yourmoney/consumer/article-13367703/store-closures-walmart-foxtrot-urban-outfitters.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">is up to nearly 2,600</a>…</p>
  322. <blockquote><p>US retailers confirmed another 169 closures last week – bringing the total so far this year up to almost 2,600.</p>
  323. <p>Stores that announced the shuttering of locations included Express, Outfox Hospitality, Shop ‘n Save, Urban Outfitters and Walmart.</p></blockquote>
  324. <p>We are in the midst of another retail apocalypse.</p>
  325. <p>Why aren’t we hearing more about this?</p>
  326. <p>On top of everything else, Chicago PMI is dropping at the fastest pace that we have seen <a title="since the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008" href="https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/fastest-drop-lehman-chicago-pmi-puke-screams-stagflation" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">since the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008</a>….</p>
  327. <blockquote><p>After miraculously surging to two years highs in Nov 2023, Chicago PMI has plunged for five straight months, with the last four months seeing the MoM declines accelerating. Against expectations of a rise to 45.0 (from March’s 41.4), April’s PMI data printed 37.9</p>
  328. <p><strong>That is the worst five-month collapse since Lehman…</strong></p></blockquote>
  329. <p>With everything that is going on, how in the world can anyone possibly claim that the economy “is in good shape”?</p>
  330. <p>Economic activity is slowing down, mass layoffs are happening all over the country, and the cost of living is absolutely crushing the middle class.</p>
  331. <p>More people are falling out of the middle class every day, and at this point, there are <a title="tens of millions of Americans" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/04/29/29percent-of-us-households-have-jobs-but-struggle-to-cover-basic-needs.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tens of millions of Americans</a> that are either considered to be either living in poverty or among the ranks of the “working poor”….</p>
  332. <blockquote><p>Over time, higher costs and sluggish wage growth have left more Americans financially vulnerable, with many known as “ALICEs.”</p>
  333. <p>Nearly 40 million families, or 29% of the population, fall in the category of ALICE — Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed — according to United Way’s United for ALICE program, which first coined the term to refer to households earning above the poverty line but less than what’s needed to get by.</p>
  334. <p>That figure doesn’t include the 37.9 million Americans who live in poverty, comprising 11.5% of the total population, according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau.</p></blockquote>
  335. <p>Collectively, the two categories discussed above now comprise more than 40 percent of the total population.</p>
  336. <p>And if you think that things are bad now, just wait until you see the suffering that will happen <a title="during the tremendous chaos that is dead ahead of us" href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM6S4V9V" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">during the tremendous chaos that is dead ahead of us</a>.</p>
  337. <p>It took decades of very foolish decisions to get us here, and now we are at a historic tipping point.</p>
  338. <p>Our economy is literally breaking down right in front of our eyes, and the path before us is going to be filled with so much pain.</p>

  373. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>This article was originally published by <a href="https://www.naturalnews.com/2024-05-01-texas-militant-police-state-silence-critics-israel.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ethan Huff at Natural News. </a></em></p>
  374. <p>Speaking up on behalf of the innocent Palestinians being slaughtered by Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in Gaza is an &#8220;antisemitic&#8221; act, <a href="https://www.informationliberation.com/?id=64413" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to</a> Texas Gov. Greg Abbott who says that all of the students and faculty members at <a href="https://www.utexas.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><i>The University of Texas at Austin</i></a> who are exercising their First Amendment rights in this way &#8220;belong in jail.&#8221;</p>
  375. <p>On X, Abbott fumed about the protests after sending in Texas State Troopers, Stasi style, to deal with the pro-Palestinian contingent at UT that is outraged over Israel&#8217;s behavior in Gaza under the leadership of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.</p>
  376. <p>&#8220;Arrests being made right now &amp; will continue until the crowd disperses,&#8221; Abbott, a tried-and-true neocon Zionist who plays the part of a Republican, wrote on Elon Musk&#8217;s social media platform.</p>
  377. <p>&#8220;These protesters belong in jail. Antisemitism will not be tolerated in Texas. Period. Students joining in hate-filled, antisemitic protests at any public college or university in Texas should be expelled.&#8221;</p>

  386. <h2>Austin police have long collaborated with Israel</h2>
  387. <p>Believe it or not, the Austin Police Department, which locals defunded in part back in 2020, has close ties to Israel. The department collaborates with an Israel lobbying group called ADL and trains alongside Israeli occupation forces on how to engage in &#8220;counterterrorism.&#8221;</p>
  388. <p>What this means in layman&#8217;s terms is that, with the help of Israel and its police state protocols for handling free speech, Austin police have learned how to sidestep the First Amendment and dub everyone who exercises free speech of which politicians disapprove as &#8220;terrorists.&#8221;</p>
  389. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
  390. <p lang="en" dir="ltr">Austin PD has a long track record of collaboration with Israel lobby outfit ADL and training with Israeli occupation forces, supposedly to learn “counterterrorism”, but in reality to gain experience crushing popular protests against genocide. <a href="https://t.co/mFa8GCLcXH" target="_blank">https://t.co/mFa8GCLcXH</a> <a href="https://t.co/qQ3WFA0dTI" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/qQ3WFA0dTI</a></p>

  393. <p>&#8220;This all lines up with the agenda of the mother of harlots, the fake Jews and their fanatical religious beliefs,&#8221; one commenter wrote about all this, referencing <a href="https://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/rev/2/9/s_1169009" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Revelation 2:9</a> and <a href="https://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/rev/3/9/s_1170009" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Revelation 3:9</a> in the Holy Scriptures, as well as citing 1932 quotes from Jewish Talmudic scholar Dr. Michael Higger, who described a future brave new Jewish world.</p>
  394. <p>&#8220;This all aligns with their teachings from the Babylonian Talmud and the Zohar teachings of Kabbalah. There will be NO tolerance of speaking out against the synagogue of Satan. All who do will be silenced, some forever. This is no joke. If they continue, things will get much worse in the near future.&#8221;</p>
  395. <p>&#8220;My Commanding Officer orders me to keep preaching the Truth, and that I shall do,&#8221; responded a Christian who follows the teaching of Jesus Christ. &#8220;I do not fear these devils who can only kill my body. Maranatha!&#8221;</p>
  396. <p>&#8220;Now you know why I will never vote again,&#8221; wrote another. &#8220;Somehow, we have in this nation an autocratic government that not only supports genocide but will drain the Treasury to &#8230; arm and equip the war criminals conducting it. There is one establishment party with two names who only support the globalists that own them.&#8221;</p>

  434. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>French President Emmanuel Macron infamously threatened to send troops to fight in the Ukraine/Russia war. He said that this threat was a &#8220;wake-up call&#8221; to his allied counterparts and that the West should keep Moscow guessing.</p>
  435. <p>The French ruler continued to reiterate that Russia should not be allowed to win this war.  Macron also attempted to use a “strategic ambiguity” approach to the situation by maintaining that the option of deploying troops was on the table,<a href="https://www.rt.com/news/596886-macron-troops-ambiguity-ukraine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> according to a report by <em>RT.</em> </a> He first made the suggestion after hosting an international meeting about the  Ukraine conflict in February.</p>
  436. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/french-ruler-suggests-boots-on-the-ground-to-defeat-russia" target="_blank" rel="noopener">French Ruler Suggests “Boots On The Ground” To Defeat Russia</a></p>
  437. <p>“If Russia wins in Ukraine, there will be no security in Europe,” Macron stated in an interview with<a href="https://www.economist.com/leaders/2024/05/02/emmanuel-macrons-urgent-message-for-europe" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> <em>The Economist</em>, published on Thursday</a>. “I’m not ruling anything out because we are facing someone who is not ruling anything out,” he told the magazine, referring to Russian ruler Vladimir Putin.</p>
  438. <p>Macron claimed that the supposed deterrence produced by the hypothetical deployment of French troops is necessary to prevent a Russian victory and fend off future attacks on other nations. But Moscow continues to deny that it has any intention to attack any other country unless they are pushed or backed into a corner. He also turned to the argument of sunk costs to explain why Kiev must be supported by Western states.</p>
  439. <p>”What credibility [will there be] for Europeans, who would have spent billions, [with] the survival of the continent&#8230; at stake and not have given themselves the means to stop Russia?” he asked. Together with Germany, “we were responsible for saving the Minsk agreements and the Normandy process,” the French ruler added. “We were right to take the diplomatic route.”</p>
  440. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/u-s-says-it-will-not-fight-for-ukraine-like-it-will-for-israel" target="_blank" rel="noopener">U.S. Says It Will Not Fight For Ukraine Like It Will For Israel</a></p>
  441. <blockquote><p>Senior Ukrainian and European officials have described the Minsk agreements as a ruse to give Kiev more time to build up its military with NATO’s help. Moscow has cited the bad-faith dealing as evidence of the West’s intention to ramp up the stand-off with Russia.<a href="https://www.rt.com/news/596886-macron-troops-ambiguity-ukraine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em> -RT</em></a></p></blockquote>

  477. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The United States ruling class has started &#8220;monitoring&#8221; 100 workers as the bird flu spreads amongst cattle. Mass surveillance is coming if the ruling class decides they really want to clamp down on humanity.</p>
  478. <p>But of course, they are doing it for the safety of the slaves<a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/05/01/bird-flu-outbreak-cows-biden-00155452" target="_blank" rel="noopener">. According to a report by <em>Politico,</em> </a>state health labs have sent “around 25” human test samples to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for reference testing amid the current dairy outbreak, according to officials. Additionally, more than 100 workers are being &#8220;monitored.&#8221;</p>
  479. <p>Officials declined to answer questions from reporters about where in the country the monitored workers are, saying only that officials are “following the herd” of infected cows.</p>

  481. <p class="story-text__paragraph ">“The risk here of something going from one or two sporadic cases to becoming something of international concern, it’s not insignificant,” CDC Principal Deputy Director Nirav Shah said at a Council on Foreign Relations event on Wednesday. “We’ve all seen how a virus can spread around the globe before public health has even had a chance to get its shoes on. That’s a risk and one that we have to be mindful of.”</p>
  482. <p>Even though the rulers are now monitoring the slave class, they continue to parrot the line the risk to humans is low. Nonetheless, federal officials said agencies are working to raise “broad awareness” about current risks to humans amid the outbreak among cows and birds. “But there are certain groups of people who are at greater risk of infection who should take precautions,” said Demetre Daskalakis, director of the CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases.</p>
  483. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/bird-flu-vaccines-are-authorized-warehoused-as-cdc-demands-human-surveillance" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bird Flu “Vaccines” Are “Authorized” &amp; “Warehoused” As CDC Demands Human Surveillance</a></p>
  484. <p>Almost one year ago, Russia claimed that the U.S. was creating a bird flu mutation that would infect humans, transmit amongst us all, and kill up to 40% of those infected. Could this be that pathogen, or it merely another coincidence?</p>
  485. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/russia-claims-u-s-is-creating-a-bird-flu-pathogen-with-a-40-mortality-rate-in-humans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Russia Claims U.S. Is Creating A Bird Flu Pathogen With A 40% Mortality Rate In Humans</a></p>
  486. <p>While the fear-mongering is ramping up, so is the surveillance. It could be a sign that this is the pathogen they conditioned the slave class for during the COVID-19 common cold scamdemic hoax.</p>

  519. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Several media outlets reported last month that the International Criminal Court (ICC) could charge Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and several other top-ranking officials with war crimes over the ongoing military campaign against Hamas in Gaza. Israel has since issued a warning to Palestine, saying that the United States will punish the Palestinian Authority and cause its collapse if the ICC issues arrest warrants for the Jewish state’s leaders.</p>
  520. <p>The ICC, which is based in The Hague, Netherlands, has been <a class="gtmContentClick" href="https://www.icc-cpi.int/news/statement-prosecutor-international-criminal-court-karim-aa-khan-kc-situation-state-palestine" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-vars-link-text="investigating since 2021 possible war crimes" data-vars-click-url="https://www.icc-cpi.int/news/statement-prosecutor-international-criminal-court-karim-aa-khan-kc-situation-state-palestine" data-vars-content-id="897d8381-f5ac-4536-9a99-b4aa21773a7d" data-vars-headline="Israel tells U.S. it will punish Palestinian Authority if ICC issues warrants" data-vars-event-category="story" data-vars-sub-category="story" data-vars-item="in_content_link">investigating possible war crimes</a> by both Israeli forces and Palestinian militants since 2021. These crimes date back to the 2014 Israel-Hamas war. That investigation has been extended to the October 7th attacks and the war that has been raging in Gaza since then, according to the prosecutor&#8217;s office.</p>
  521. <p><a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/05/01/us-israel-palestinian-authority-icc-arrest-warrant" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Axios</em> reported on this warning</a> issued by Israel on Thursday. According to Israeli and U.S. officials who spoke to<em> Axios</em> reporter Barak Ravid, the Israeli government told the Biden administration that, if arrest warrants are issued, it will consider the Palestinian Authority responsible and will retaliate with strong action against it.</p>
  522. <p>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu then asked U.S. ruler Joe Biden last week to stop the ICC from pursuing him, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi. The Biden administration reportedly conveyed to ICC officials that arrest warrants against the Israeli leaders would be a mistake.</p>
  523. <blockquote><p>One possible measure could be to freeze the transfer of tax revenues that Israel collects for the Palestinian Authority, <em>Axios</em> has claimed. Without these funds, the Palestinian Authority would go bankrupt, it added.</p>
  524. <p>Another possible course of action would be <em>“an official decision to punish the Palestinian Authority, which could lead to its collapse,”</em> a senior Israeli official told Axios.</p>
  525. <p>The country’s leadership believes the threat of ICC arrest warrants to be real, the publication added. The outlet did not specify what action was under consideration by Israel. &#8211;<a href="https://www.rt.com/news/596864-israel-blackmailing-icc-us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>RT</em></a></p></blockquote>
  526. <p><a class="refer-link" style="line-height: 1.3em; display: block; background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #870404; padding: 8px 30px 8px 15px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 8px; font-size: 1.2em; position: relative; border-left: 12px solid #870404;" href="https://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/israel-offers-ceasefire-deal-to-hamas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Israel Offers Ceasefire Deal To Hamas</a></p>
  527. <p>Israel is not a party to the Rome Statute, the treaty that established the ICC, and does not recognize the court’s jurisdiction, <a href="https://www.rt.com/news/596864-israel-blackmailing-icc-us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to a report by <em>RT</em>.</a> However, should a warrant in Netanyahu’s name be issued, his travel could be restricted, as the 124 countries that recognize the court may consider themselves obliged to arrest him.</p>
