People Get Hurt Believing In Stuff That Defies Rational Thought

A report from the Daily Mail. “Anyone who has tried to sell their home recently knows the property market can be brutal. And it seems that’s true whether you’re selling an apartment in Hampshire or a mega-mansion in Hollywood. There is no shortage of famous faces who have had to slash their asking price to find a buyer – with some yet to succeed. Here, we look at the discount divas – and how low they have had to go.”

The Times-Picayune in Louisiana. “Joshua Bruno, who operates five low-income apartment complexes in New Orleans where tenants complain of grim conditions, filed for bankruptcy on all of the properties, just as an Orleans Parish judge was poised to order a ‘keeper’ to manage them pending foreclosure. Bruno claimed his businesses have lost millions from the pandemic downturn. He also said Fannie Mae duped him into not paying the notes and that it reneged on a promised forbearance. Fannie Mae has dismissed that claim.”

The Cape Cod Times in Massachusetts. “As part of the bankruptcy proceedings of Yarmouth-based Levee Breaks Investment Group LLC, three properties will be abandoned, one property has been sold and four others are up forsale. LBIG used investor money to purchase Cape properties, remodel them and sell them or rent them at profits.”

“U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Frank J. Bailey on Jan. 12 approved trustee David Madoff’s motion for the authority to abandon two houses in Yarmouth and one lot in Dennis Port. ‘There was a lot of money invested and a lot of money not accounted for,’ Madoff said. ‘There have been a lot of suggestions by people as to where the money went, so we will start to look at that.'”

The Kansas City Star. “A new plan aims to jump start the long-troubled Mission Gateway development a month after it missed a critical construction milestone, forcing its developers back to ‘some version of square one’ almost 16 years after the project first began. ‘I have invested a great deal of my life savings in this project,’ said developer Tom Valenti. ‘I would like the chance at least to get back something of it and, if not, then my next priority is to help my partner get back the 10 times as much as he’s invested in this project.'”

The South Florida Business Journal. “An affiliate of investment giant Blackstone sold the Mangrove Bay assisted living facility along the Intracoastal Waterway in Jupiter for $41.23 million, a significant discount from its last trade. BRE Rook SH Mangrove Bay LLC, in care of Blackstone in New York, sold the 155-unit assisted living facility at 110 Mangrove Bay Way. The price equated to $266,000 a unit. Mangrove Bay last traded for $71.9 million in 2017, so it sold for a considerable loss.”

The Marin Independent Journal in California. “The median price of a detached home in Marin was $1.49 million in December, a year-over-year increase of about 6%, according to the county assessor’s office. The price, while a gain, marked a drop-off from the double-digit increases over the summer, when the Marin median swelled as high as $1.8 million. The number of detached home sales in Marin was 170 in December, down 35% from the prior year, according to the county data.”

From Socket Site in California. “Completely remodeled and expanded to 2,400 square feet in 2017, the now three-level, four-bedroom home then sold for $2,250,000, or roughly $938 per square foot, that September. Having returned to the market priced at ‘$2,249,000’ last month, a sale at which would represent no appreciation since the third quarter of 2017, the ‘Miraloma Stunner’ is already in contract.”

From Rappler. “Seoul’s housing market, one of the most unaffordable in the world, has begun to show signs that its red-hot five-year boom could be running out of steam – just in time for the March presidential vote. South Korean residential property transactions plunged 62% in December to 53,774 from a year earlier – the smallest number for the month since 2008 when the market was battered by the global financial crisis.”

“‘Loan restrictions and higher borrowing costs began to really cool the market towards the end of last year and even serious buyers and sellers are waiting for policy changes so we’re in for a quiet market for months to come,’ said Yeo Kyoung-hui, a property market analyst at Real Estate 114. ‘It’s possible that we will see supply outpace demand going forward.'”

The South China Morning Post. “As millions of Chinese headed home last week to celebrate the Lunar New Year, Michael Lin had to break the bad news to his 7-year-old daughter: she would not be seeing her grandparents in Anhui province during the long holiday week. Lin, who runs a painting and heating-insulation company in neighbouring Jiangsu province, had to sell the family’s 2017 Honda SUV last December to keep his small business – and six employees – afloat.”

“He is one of the thousands of suppliers who have had to forgo holidays, tap into rainy-day funds or close their businesses in the past year, as they too came into hard times, following the outsize debts owed by China Evergrande Group, Kaisa Group Holdings and dozens of Chinese developers. ‘No money, no new year,’ said Lin, whose company is owed more than 5 million yuan (US$790 million) in overdue payments by Evergrande.”

From Reuters. “The world’s top central banks are about to embark on ‘the largest quantitative tightening in history,’ analysts at Morgan Stanley said on Friday, estimating that $2.2 trillion worth of support would disappear over the next 12 months. A surge in global inflation is forcing the U.S. Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of Japan and Bank of England to reel in the support measures used during the coronavirus pandemic. ‘G4 central bank balance sheets will peak in May,’ Morgan Stanley’s analysts said, adding the $2.2 trillion reduction they expected would be 4.5 times larger that in 2018 when the around $500 billion was lost.”

The New York Post. “To follow the market travails of AMC Entertainment, a money-losing movie theater chain, is to come to terms with the phenomenon of how mass psychosis has taken over stock investing. Yes, there have always been manias in the markets, but this one is different. What we have in the AMC imbroglio is a mania fueled by a cult-like conspiracy theory that is causing damage far beyond a few warped souls losing their shirts.”

“Despite all of this, the cult has continued to grow and has kept buying while the stock falters, delaying the inevitable hard landing because of AMC’s continued disastrous fundamentals and the Fed popping the market bubble with higher rates. But people get hurt believing in stuff that defies rational thought, and the AMC cult is and will be no different. Eleanor Terrett of Fox Business listened in on a group call where one of the aforementioned Apes said: ‘To you new Apes … I know you all are red … I get it. I didn’t sell at $77 … I’m not selling now. I’ve lost enough to buy a house with cash.'”

    1. We are very close to implosion. The new home median price is only up 4% YOY, similar to that Marin number (and probably many/most areas), so a couple more months of increasing mortgage rates and death of FOMO and the YOY numbers should start going negative all over the country. Then it’s crater time.

    Eat yer crowz thornberg.

    ‘a sale at which would represent no appreciation since the third quarter of 2017’

    How long does this have to go on before the REIC is forced to knock off the red hotness BS?

    1. Month over month can be explained away as “normal seasonal weakness” blah blah blah. When the YOY goes negative, it’s over.

  3. ‘He also said Fannie Mae duped him into not paying the notes and that it reneged on a promised forbearance’

    We’re all in this together Josh. But yer dealing with snakes. Plus you need to actually make a profit.

    They gave it away?

    It’s a bumper year for real estate ponzi schemes.

      1. Wow Ben , everybody should listen to these two posts you got. The Opening Statement at Nuremberg 2.0 is so great a summary of the crimes committed by these Entities .

        I’m just wondering how much clout that International Court has in indictment against the obvious culprits in this attack against humanity.

        1. It’s very concise. As he said, the guberments are captured, and with them the judicial. The standard is only a jury of their peers. We can get that.

      2. We, a group of international lawyers and a judge, hereby are conducting criminal investigation modelled after the United States Grand Jury proceedings.
        This Grand Jury Investigation serves as a model legal proceeding to present to a jury (consisting of the citizens of the world) all available evidence of COVID-19 Crimes Against Humanity to date against “leaders,
        organizers, instigators and accomplices” who aided, abetted or actively participated in the formulation and execution of a common plan for a pandemic.
        Crimes to be investigated include all acts performed or omitted by a person in pursuance of a common design to commit Crimes Against Humanity, and all such criminal acts condemned in the various communities of jurors around the world.

        This investigation is of the people, by the people and for the people and shall be referred to as the ‘Peoples´ Court of Public Opinion.
        Having been unable to find a court to hear the actual evidence in the current system´s courts of law, we are undertaking this proceeding outside of the current system and based on natural law.
        This, in turn is founded on the firm belief that every person can easily distinguish between good and evil, and between right and wrong.

  5. Some good news for a sunday.

    New York Post — Wild video shows thieves snatch Louis Vuitton bags at Westchester mall (2/6/2022):

    “Shocking video emerged this week of a wild theft at a Louis Vuitton store inside a ritzy Westchester mall where two suspects made off with several pricey purses.

    The mall was also the site of another theft at Burberry …

    The mall condemned the thefts in a statement and said they have beefed up security in their wake.

    “The crime depicted in this video is unacceptable and we are fully cooperating with the White Plains Police Department in their investigation,” a spokesperson for The Westchester said.

    https://nypost.com/2022/02/06/video-thieves-snatch-several-louis-vuitton-bags-at-the-westchester-mall/

    Washington Post — Thieves smash-and-grab expensive eyeglasses at six D.C.-area stores in recent weeks (2/5/2022):

    “When the three young men in hooded sweatshirts entered Bauer’s Optical on King Street in Alexandria one afternoon last month, “they came in asking for Cartier” eyeglass frames, the store’s general manager, Jackie Vaughan, said. “I said we don’t have Cartier. I could kind of sense what was going on.”

    Moments later, one of them pulled a hammer out of his pocket and began smashing glass display cases. As Vaughan scurried to call 911, the men snagged all of the store’s Gucci inventory and a tray of sunglasses, with a total value of more than $17,000, and ran out of the store.

    It was the latest in at least six smash-and-grab thefts of eyeglass stores in the last three weeks in the D.C. area, all of them while the stores were open and as employees watched in terrified amazement. The thieves target high-end frames, which can retail for more than a thousand dollars apiece, and can then be resold online or on the streets.”

    And the most important part of the whole article:

    “No suspect descriptions were available for any of the six recent larcenies, police said.”

    https://archive.fo/opKzG

    Real Journalists.

    No descriptions? You can’t even call them “youths” or “students” which is the unspoken Associated Press style guide for young black males from homes without fathers?

    Sounds like a Democrat Party thing…

    1. “No suspect descriptions were available for any of the six recent larcenies, police said.”

      Amish elders in Pennsylvania were summoned after Rumspringa celebrants Abner, Eli, Vernon, and Melvin were implicated in a string of East Coast smash & grab thefts plaguing the Big Apple….

      1. “No suspect descriptions were available for any of the six recent larcenies, police said.”

        Vanna could help out with a couple of letters. 🙂

    2. “Shocking video emerged this week of a wild theft at a Louis Vuitton store inside a ritzy Westchester mall”

      Ritzy Westchester?

      That’s where the oppressed AOC from the Bronx or I mean Sandy from Westchester grew up and graduated from high school before she went on to Junior College or I mean Boston University.

      Anyway, I love me some smash and grab looting at a Louis Vuitton store inside a ritzy Westchester mall.

    3. “The crime depicted in this video is unacceptable and we are fully cooperating with the White Plains Police Department in their investigation,” a spokesperson for The Westchester said.

      This crime is unacceptable? It’s ok when others are murdered and raped at 5x the average rate. BUT….When suspects with “no description” attack our ivory towers, something must be done.

    4. “No suspect descriptions were available for any of the six recent larcenies, police said.”

      And if you have any information about this incident, please call 1800-MEMORYHOLE so we can “file” it.

    Washington Post — Ottawa endures ‘increasingly dangerous’ covid mandate protests as ‘Freedom Convoy’ blockades leave city on edge (2/5/2022):

    “Canada’s capital on Saturday was witnessing a surge of demonstrators joining a week-long protest of public health measures and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that has blockaded much of the downtown core, unnerved residents and been described by officials as an “occupation” and a “siege.”

    Local police said Friday that they expected as many as 400 additional trucks and up to 2,000 people to join the self-described “Freedom Convoy” over the weekend. They said that some 1,000 people could also be planning a counterprotest.

    Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly, under fire for what critics have called a lenient response to the blockades, said police would be “hardening” the perimeter around the protests and deploying 150 more officers to “deliver a clear message” that “the lawlessness must end.” Roads, highway ramps and bridges also could be closed.

    “The demonstrators … remain highly organized, well-funded, extremely committed to resisting all attempts to end the demonstrations safely,” Sloly, who said he had received death threats, told reporters Friday. “This remains, as it was from the beginning, an increasingly volatile and increasingly dangerous demonstration.”

    https://archive.fo/tfFLz

    Do NOT fall into the baited Glowie trap. Do NOT threaten the police chief or elected officials.

    Go for the “soft targets” the Blue Checkmark Twitter, the Reddit Karma Scores, the Real Journalists.

    1. “Soft targets” have no security. They strut around in public displaying their hubris for all to see. They walk in parking garages where one could, if one were so inclined, punch them square in the face so hard their noses explode and they fall to the ground stunned. Once on their rear one might whisper in their ear you also know where they live and what you think of their “journalism” and how you will be following their postings, forever.

  7. Watching the local news this morning I noticed the Globalists had given the MSM their marching orders to go full January 6 on the Canadian truckers protest with a propaganda piece pumped in by the mother ship at ABC News.

    Here is CNN’s version.

    Crowds of demonstrators join rallies across Canada as Covid-19 trucker protests spread

    By Paula Newton, CNN
    Updated 7:34 AM ET, Sun February 6, 2022

    Ottawa’s police chief called it a “nationwide insurrection driven by madness,” claiming his city was under siege and would need more reinforcements beyond those it had already received from other police forces.

    Numerous businesses in Ottawa have complained to city officials they are losing money and customers, and the majority of businesses in Ottawa’s downtown core have been closed for more than a week or have been operating with reduced hours.

    Ottawa police said they have responded to more than 400 calls for service related to the demonstrations since they began last week. At least 50 criminal investigations are underway, including 11 involving potential hate crimes.

    https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/05/americas/canada-trucker-protest-covid-19/index.html

    1. I walked two miles and put up 50 new stickers this morning, all before 7am.

      Avery 18163 are 2″ x 4″ with 100 labels, and Avery 18160 are 1″ x 2-5/8″ with 300 labels, each available at Wal-Mart for about $5.

      1. “It’s OK to be white” really short circuits their NPC brains. Their mental reaction is always, “Of course it isn’t OK to be… Ah, I see what you did there.”

        1. That specific campaign originated on 4chan.

          I’m not going to reveal too much because of doxx, but the stickers I’m putting up are pretty triggering, because people keep either ripping them down or scribbling over them with sharpies.

          As mentioned on a previous thread, online spaces can be censored, but the physical world can not be.

          This is the Leaderless Resistance in action 🙂

          1. Good idea to make your own. I wouldn’t be surprised if Amazon reports “I did that!” sticker buyers to the Alphabet agencies.

    2. “Insurrection.” The new globalist pet term to describe resistance to tyranny or electoral fraud.

      “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.” -Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride.

      1. An “insurrection” like the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone in Seattle in 2020?

        The one that claimed possession of territory? The one with all the murders? And the rapes? And the overdoses?

        No, not *that* kind of insurrection 🙁

        “They’re not sending their best”

        1. Looks like more Mostly Peaceful Protests in store for the libtard bastion of Minneapolis.

          More than 1,000 people march in Minneapolis following fatal shooting of Amir Locke during police ‘no knock’ warrant: Governor activates National Guard as trial of three officers for George Floyd’s death nears end

          https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10482377/Hundreds-gather-Minneapolis-demand-justice-Amir-Locke.html

          Hundreds of people filled the streets of downtown Minneapolis on Saturday to demand justice for Amir Locke, after body cam footage released by the Minneapolis Police Department showed an officer shoot and kill Locke during a no-knock warrant earlier this week.

          More than 1,000 protesters, who gathered outside the Hennepin County Government Center around 3 p.m., also called for the resignation of Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and officer Mark Hanneman.

          1. These “no-knock” warrant raids are indefensible.

            Know the difference. George Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose, Breanna Taylor was murdered by police.

            That being said, the key lesson is do not buy property in or pay property taxes to municipalities of Vibrancy.

          2. That being said, the key lesson is do not buy property in or pay property taxes to municipalities of Vibrancy.

            But, but … how will I survive without a Somalian restaurant within walking distance of my apartment?

  8. If there’s anything the globalists and their Quislings are pushing harder than masks and vaccines in their kiddie indoctrination mills, it’s anti-white hatred.

    Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi steps in after 300 schools in Brighton and Hove tell children as young as seven they are not ‘racially innocent’ because they ‘see whites as top of the hierarchy’

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10481909/Education-Secretary-steps-concerning-racial-theories-taught-Brighton-Hove-schools.html

    The Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi has sent officials to investigate Brighton and Hove Council over reports that ‘concerning’ race theories are being taught in the 300 schools run by the Green-led local authority.

    It comes after 4,700 people signed a petition, slamming Brighton and Hove Council for allegedly teaching primary school children they are ‘racists’ or ‘victims of their classmates’.

    1. So English children seeing the English people as the rightful rulers of England is somehow wrong? Okay globalists, I see your point.

  9. How much did Mike Pence get paid anyway?

    Pence says ‘Trump is wrong’ to say then-vice president had the right to overturn 2020 election

    By Steve Contorno and Eric Bradner, CNN

    Updated 10:23 PM ET, Fri February 4, 2022

    Lake Buena Vista, Florida (CNN)Former Vice President Mike Pence called out his former boss by name on Friday, saying that “President (Donald) Trump is wrong” in claiming that Pence had the right to overturn the 2020 election on January 6, 2021.

    Speaking at the Federalist Society Florida Chapters conference near Orlando, Pence delivered his strongest response yet to Trump’s ongoing efforts to relitigate the 2020 presidential election, calling it “un-American” to suggest one person could have decided the outcome.

    Pence warned against conservatives who continue to insist the vice president can alter an election, and said it could be a problematic position for Republicans in the next presidential contest.

    1. What’s this world coming to when globalist oligarchs and “woke” corporations pay Communist insurrectionists good money to burn, loot, and murder, and instead millions of those funds get siphoned off for graft, luxury homes in lily white neighborhoods, and living the high life.

      ‘BLM’s house of cards is starting to fall’: Indiana AG says ‘scam’ organization that has $60m is causing him ‘concern’ but declines to say if he’s launched an investigation after California DoJ went after the leaders

      https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10470425/Indiana-attorney-general-says-BLMs-house-cards-starting-fall-amid-financial-questions.html

      The Indiana attorney general slammed Black Lives Matter as a falling ‘house of cards’ before the activist group shut down all of its fundraising websites late Wednesday afternoon.

      The move comes as BLM was forbidden to collect donations in California and Washington due to its ‘lack of financial transparency,’ but reportedly continued to do so.

      1. From the comments: “The organization has served its purposes of helping to depose Trump, and is now very harmful to the Democrats, so it will be thrown under the bus and likely the founders sent to prison.”

        Can’t fool everyone.

    Hong Kong’s property market sinks to 17-month low in January as Omicron wreaks havoc with deals

    https://www.scmp.com/business/article/3165887/hong-kongs-property-market-sinks-17-month-low-january-omicron-wreaks-havoc

    Hong Kong’s property market is expected to see even fewer deals in the coming month amid a fifth coronavirus outbreak linked to the Omicron strain, with the overall number of deals in the city sinking to a 17-month low in January.

    The overall number of transactions, including residential, commercial and industrial properties, as well as parking spaces, came in at 5,894 in January, down 16.7 per cent month-on-month, according to data from Centaline Property Agency.

    “The lower figures reflect the tepid sentiment in the property market, with buyers adopting a wait-and-see attitude about entering the market,” said Wong Leung-sing, a senior associate director of research at Centaline.

  12. “Affordable housing” contracts steered to Democrat-Bolshevik supporting construction firms…what could possibly go wrong?

    Mold, termites and rotting wood. It’s the Pitts! Only SIX of the 109 affordable homes Brad Pitt built for $26.8M and sold to survivors of Hurricane Katrina for $150,000 are in livable condition – and none are built to withstand NOLA’s climate

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10464111/Only-SIX-homes-Brad-Pitt-built-survivors-Hurricane-Katrina-livable-condition.html

    Just six of the 109 affordable homes Brad Pitt’s Make It Right Foundation built for low-income residents in New Orleans following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 are still in livable condition nearly 20 years later.

    A vast majority of the homes, which were built for $26.8 million, are riddled with construction-related problems that have led to mold, termites, rotting wood and flooding, urban geographer Judith Keller wrote for Market Watch, and as of early 2022, six of the homes are vacant because of mold, rot and other structural issues after they were built without essential needs for the city’s sub-tropical climate. They were sold to residents for a discounted $150,000.

    Two of the homes have now been demolished because of severe mold, and the city is seizing one of the properties, calling it a ‘safety hazard.’

  13. Oh dear….

    Big China-Backed London Development on Brink of Collapse

    https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-02-06/huge-london-docks-development-on-brink-of-collapse-times-says?srnd=premium-middle-east&sref=ibr3A0ff

    A 1.7 billion pound ($2.3 billion) regeneration project in east London that’s been sitting undeveloped for years is on the brink of collapse unless its Chinese developers can guarantee it will be completed, the Sunday Times reported.

    In 2013, then-Mayor of London Boris Johnson awarded a contract to Beijing-based Advanced Business Parks to turn the 35-acre site into offices, shops and homes. But ABP only secured a handful of tenants and halted construction more than two years ago.

  14. The corrupt DoJ & FBI are giving the really big criminals a free pass, while serving as the DNC-Deep State secret police against political dissidents & parents opposed to globalist agendas in our NEA indoctrination mills.

    California substitute teacher berates teen for supporting ‘confederacy’ over pro-police mask

    https://www.foxnews.com/us/california-substitute-teacher-thin-blue-line-face-mask-confederate-glaf

    A substitute teacher in California was caught on camera lashing out at a 13-year-old student wearing a pro-police thin blue line face mask, saying it’s the new version of the Confederate flag.

    “That’s not the American flag, that’s the new confederacy flag,” the substitute teacher said in the video to a student at Lyman Gilmore Middle School in Grass Valley.

  16. I know used car prices are crazy, but wow that is insane (/sarcasm):

    “Lin, who runs a painting and heating-insulation company in neighbouring Jiangsu province, had to sell the family’s 2017 Honda SUV last December to keep his small business – and six employees – afloat…whose company is owed more than 5 million yuan (US$790 MILLION) in overdue payments by Evergrande.”

    1. Something was lost in translation. 5M Yuan is $790K USD, not $790M.

      Still seems to be a lot for a subcontractor with just 6 employees.

    2. That’s a howler of a mistake by SCMP. I assume they mean US $790,000 (at an exchange rate of 1 yuan = 16 cents US).

    “Tip to whoever is playing Uncle Joe’s brain this week: The reason your messaging doesn’t work anymore, the reason you are being tuned out at a record pace, the reason your incoherence has become almost physically painful to hear, the reason boosters are deader than lockdowns, isn’t because of me or Tucker Carlson or Joe Rogan or Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.

    It’s because you have lied and lied and lied and all the CDC charts in the world can no longer hide reality. People see their vaccinated friends and family sick with Omicron. They see who is dying – the elderly and infirm, vaccinated or not.”

    Chelsea Clinton, who is Webster Hubbell’s biological daughter, called these Substack authors “grifters.”

    These COVID “vaccines” that are not vaccines are medical genocide, and there will be arrests, trials, convictions, and executions.

    The Day Of The Rope is coming…

    1. The 20 minute opening Statement at International Court that Ben posted above is a fantastic summary of what this group of Entities did to hijack Governments , take over the World, and commit mass genocide, collapse economies, and loot tax, and consolidate power for Globalists Private Party Cooperate Governance One World Order dictorship.
      They claim in the indictment that the Covid Pandemic was false and contrived for the purpose. of Medical Tyranny of mass vaccination of useless expierment vaccines that where useless, lethal and injurious , and a crime against humanity. The indictment also mentions the deliberate obstruction of med cures for respiratory afflictions.
      They mention the fake PCR tests in this medical fraud against humanity.
      Bill Gates Klaus Schwab and Dr Fauci are in the inducements as those psychopaths should be.

      Of course fake news won’t televise these Nuremberg 2 proceedings no doubt.

      1. Of course fake news won’t televise these Nuremberg 2 proceedings no doubt.

        The fake news cabal is busy trying to tar and feather the Canadian truckers as criminals. At first they were ignoring them, hoping they would get bored and go home. But now that it’s obvious they aren’t going anywhere, even though gofundme slammed the door in their faces, the character assassination will begin. And if they don’t leave after that there will be calls from the media to send in the military, which could really backfire.

        1. I fear this could become a full on Tiananmen Square situation soon.

          If these globalists tyrants fear they are losing control of the narrative, there’s no limit to what they could try to do…

          1. I don’t think Canadian soldiers would fire on Canadian truckers. The globalists might need to import their own “regime protection” units comprised of globalist imports who hate western civilization.

          2. If these globalists tyrants fear they are losing control of the narrative, there’s no limit to what they could try to do…

            In the end, Klaus and his cabal will give Justin his orders.

            If they try to stamp this out, it will have to be brutal, an act the will send shivers down the spines of disarmed Canucks. The message has to be clear: anyone who helps the convoy in any way will be made to pay.

          3. Besides, they’re not disarmed.

            You do have a point. Plus, it can’t be that hard to smuggle stuff in across the border. It’s huge and mostly unguarded.

    2. They are doing everything in their power to cancel Joe Rogan now, since his podcast about the vaxx/COVID sham cut a little too close to the bone.

  19. “The world’s top central banks are about to embark on ‘the largest quantitative tightening in history,’ analysts at Morgan Stanley said on Friday, estimating that $2.2 trillion worth of support would disappear over the next 12 months. A surge in global inflation is forcing the U.S. Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of Japan and Bank of England to reel in the support measures used during the coronavirus pandemic.”

    Bahahahahahahahahahahaha. What a joke. As long as this “quantitative easing” found its way into raising prices of assets (“creating wealth” in the process – which is another joke) this money printing was seen to be a good and wonderous thing to behold. Almost magical. Now that this money is finding its way into elevating prices of consumables then it is seen to be a problem.

    Same money, different direction as to now it is applied, how it is spent.

    Once the spending (choke) created wealth, now the spending is destroying wealth – destroying wealth by destroying the money’s buying power.

    1. QE had to go on long enough for JPow and friends to sell all their shares to the FOMO crowd, so they can buy back at the bottom at an 80% discount.

  20. “What we have in the AMC imbroglio is a mania fueled by a cult-like conspiracy theory that is causing damage far beyond a few warped souls losing their shirts.”

    “Despite all of this, the cult has continued to grow and has kept buying while the stock falters, delaying the inevitable hard landing because of AMC’s continued disastrous fundamentals and the Fed popping the market bubble with higher rates. But people get hurt believing in stuff that defies rational thought, and the AMC cult is and will be no different.”

    Bahahahahahahahaha … what a bunch of dummies. These cult people want to screw the manipulators – the shorts – by buying this doomed stock and thus they end up creating a market for wiser holders of the stock to sell into.

    I like it.

    1. “… thus they end up creating a market for wiser holders of the stock to sell into.”

      An example:

      “Of course, Aron will be confident of the company’s progress. Selling the AMC story has made him a wealthy man. Aron sold more than $40 million in stock in the last three months. As I’ve said in the past, it’s a nice retirement gift from retail investors.”

    It seems fate would have it no other way: Canadian truckers, specifically, and Canada, in general, has become the spine of the resistance against tyrannical Covid mandates.

    The globalists understand their entire totalitarian agenda is at risk and will likely try to derail the resistance movement in Ottawa with tactics ranging from strategic stalling to false flag operations.

    The financial elite must break what has become the backbone of the opposition to their Great Reset.

    1. As some of you know I follow the Mexican media. And they are pretending that nothing is happening in Canada. I’m also seeing anti-Ivermectin editorials in the Mexican press, which is also screaming “Get jabbed before it’s too late!”

    Hate crimes in US skyrocketed 46% in 2021: New York City saw 96% spike, LA had 71% increase and Asian Americans experienced 339% rise in the worst numbers for 100 years, California State University reveals

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10480861/New-York-City-reported-96-spike-LA-saw-71-increase-attacks-Asian-Americans-hit-record.html

    The level of hate crimes in the U.S. shot up in 2021 across a dozen of the nation’s biggest cities, and Asian Americans were among those being targeted most often amid the coronavirus pandemic as crimes against them skyrocketed 339 percent.

    Data from metropolitan police departments in 14 cities found hate crimes were up by 46 percent in 2021 from 2020.

      1. Yet Asians will keep pulling the D Lever.
        You are right, and I don’t get it either. They are getting screwed the worst by affirmative action/quotas. What is worse is a friend of mine got let go and they kept a Hispanic woman even though he had longer tenure. He said, as did a fellow professor, that it was do to affirmative action. But don’t worry, he will still continue to vote D. I have tried to explain his “stupidity” to him, to no avail. I even showed him the comments from the then Governor of Virginia about having too many white teachers. Again, nothing.

        1. All I can think is that someday they hope to be recognized as “people of color” and be able to collect the prizes and cash that come with that status.

          1. “Asians” have never needed handouts. They are outdistancing even “white” Americans as we speak.

            And BTW, what the hell is an “Asians”? I’m a third generation Japanese American whose grandparents came to California in the early 1900s. My best friend is an MD/PhD from Shanghai who got off an airplane in 2010.

            Then there are Korean Americans who came in the late eighties. And don’t forget the boat people from Vietnam and Cambodia. I know several of those who were babies when they arrived and ended up becoming MDs. Vietnamese Boat People really hate Communists and Socialists.

            So what’s an “Asian”? Is that like a “European”? You know, those white people who are all alike because, well, they look like white people. Doesn’t matter if they came or descended from Norway, France, Poland, Italy, Greece or Wales, they’re all the same, right?

            FYI, lots of “Asians” are more conservative than the “conservatives” on this board, and they’re Republicans. But lots of Republicans are too lazy or dumb to know the difference between someone like me and my Chinese friend from Shanghai. It would be in the best interest of conservatives to try and educate themselves on who and what the Asians are in this country.

            I grew up hearing how well I spoke English. That was over 50 years ago. Some things never change.

      2. “Asians”

        Iran, India, Vietnam, Korea, Japan, Russia, and Turkey are all in Asia, so the people of each country in Asia are all Asians, yet may look completely different. I think what’s really meant by “Asian” is actually the Oriental, or (gasp) Mongoloid race.

          1. The ethnic foot stamping and howling is priceless. In the same way Joe Biden won the election is priceless. I’m kinda thinkin Joe Biden won in the same way as OJ is not guilty….. in the same way I’m a bellydancer.

        1. Oriental

          That used to be the “go to” term for those from the far east, but becaome “deprecated” some time ago and was replaced with the amorphous “Asian”.

    1. From the comments: “So much success in liberal cities after decades of liberal policies.”

    1. But you still need an airport and runway. And a pilot’s license. It would be cheaper just to buy an airplane and park it at the airport. Then drive to the airport in your car and hop into your airplane. This so-called flying car is actually a very expensive mediocre car and crappy airplane.

      1. This so-called flying car is actually a very expensive mediocre car and crappy airplane.

        Plus I doubt it would be able to meet car safety requirements in most countries. There’s a reason cars have become bigger and heavier.

        1. And this new flying car is going to cost between $500,000 and $1,000,000! Such a bargain. A Cessna 172 from 1972 will outperform this “airplane”, and the “automobile” part of this joke is like a 1972 Super Beetle.

  23. I ran across this …

    “I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness. The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance.

      Real Journalists like Littwin are apoplectic over mask mandates being dropped across the Centennial State.

      Right now he’s kvetching that the new school board that was elected in Douglas County fired the leftist superintendent. All Dumver media is furious about this.

      1. The level of Mass Formation Psychosis can vary widely in areas only a few miles apart. Englewood King Soopers was about 50% masked this morning. A few miles north in Washington Park and Baker lots of masks outdoors, masks while driving alone.

        The City / County of Dumver voted 79.55% for Pedo Joe, which is its own separate Mass Formation Psychosis.

        1. The level of Mass Formation Psychosis can vary widely in areas only a few miles apart.

          Yup. I swung by Safeway yesterday. I would say that about 10% of shoppers were masked. Last time I went to Kings, about a week ago, it was about 50/50.

          Speaking about shopping, I picked up some sliced roast beef at the store Deli. $14/lb. It is cheaper at Kings, about $12/lb, but I wasn’t going that way. I can afford it, but wonder how many people are switching from sliced deli to store brand bologna?

          1. So you found the most costly place on the planet to buy sliced deli beef.

            Does it taste any better than the $6 a pound Boars Head brand in a NY deli?

          2. I buy ground beef at $5.50/lb and grill it into 1/2 lb patties for burgers. It’s cheaper than deli meat or Ronnie Mac’s and tastes better than both. That plus eggs at a few bucks per dozen and you can eat lots of high quality protein for cheap.

          3. I do buy a bit of lean (93%) ground beef and cook with it. Organic chicken breasts at Sam’s Club are a little over $3/lb and come vacuum sealed which is handy for freezing them.

            But sometimes you just want something nicer. USDA Prime grade steaks can be pricey, but it’s cheaper than grabbing burgers at Wendy’s.

  26. I am concerned for the Truckers.
    I don’t think the Globlist enemy perceived a rebellion by Truckers.

    You can have pre-planned simulations of your attack , but still miss some things.
    For instance , I think they expected more compliance on the jab .
    I think they didn’t think it would be so obvious that the vaccines didn’t work and people wouldn’t be thrilled with gene altering lab rat expierments.
    I heard this guy talking about how they pre program people by coming out with movies to pre condition them on the scams they want to pull off.

    For instance a number of global Panademic Movies, where the Medical Community comes up with the magic jab that stops the extinction of the globe Than the big World Globe registering the fast spreading virus shown in movies, that these fraudsters used for a while with Covid on fake news to fear monger.

    I don’t think they thought that there was going to be this many global protests to the mandates in these kind of numbers in Europe.
    Also don’t think they expected this many Doctors and Scientists. rebelling against their harm or whistleblowers coming forth.

          She gasped like a fish out of water. I cough loudly while unmasked any time we are near.

    2. I heard this guy talking about how they pre program people by coming out with movies to pre condition them on the scams they want to pull off.

  28. Are double digit rent increases making you feel desperate to buy a house…right at the point when central banks are pledging to raise rates in order to nip budding inflation?

    There may have never been a worser time to buy…but don’t tell the people who are panicking over unaffordable, rapidly inflating rents.

    1. My niece, who lives in Florida and does not have a high income, has it in her head that rapidly inflating rents are a buy signal. I tried to pass counsel her way through her mom (my sister), but it seems pointless. Even though what happened in 2007-2009 was about what posters here predicted, the Fed’s subsequent housing market intervention reinforced the widely held belief that real estate always goes up.
      People think I’m a real estate crank, which is true. But that doesn’t mean my impression that there’s a great risk of another crash is wrong. There’s always another crash, though the exact timing can be hard to predict. Shoeshine girl moments like Millennials engaging in panic buying at the tail end of a boom is a sure sign we are on the glide path down the slippery slope.

      1. I did the same thing regarding my niece before the last bust. She was buying a new home before selling the first and got stuck with both.

        My sister asked me later “How did you know”?

        1. I tried to talk another sister down from the ledge when she and her erstwhile husband were going to buy just before the 2007-2009 crater event. They went ahead and bought, which turned out to be the prelude to their divorce.

        Rising rents are one of the main drivers in the recent bout of inflation. They are also spurring many renters to try to buy a home as quickly as possible.

        Average monthly rents listed in the U.S. jumped more than 14% year over year in December, climbing to $1,877, according to data from Redfin. In many major cities, including Austin, Texas, and Miami, rents increased by more than 30%.

  31. University That Funds Biden’s Think Tank And Hosts FactCheck.Org Has Contract With BioNTech, Gets Paid For Vaccine Sales And FDA Approvals

    By Patrick Howley
    February 6, 2022 at 5:57am

    Documents obtained by NATIONAL FILE show that the University of Pennsylvania, which hosts and funds Joe Biden’s think tank called the Penn Biden Center, directly profits from the sale of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna Coronavirus vaccines. The University gets more money if more vaccines are sold. The University of Pennsylvania also gets “milestone payments” when the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves a Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. BioNTech pays the University of Pennsylvania Board of Trustees directly, and the university is protected from civil liability if people try to sue for “bodily injury” or “death” caused by BioNTech vaccines.

    The University of Pennsylvania also houses the pro-vaccine website FactCheck.org. University of Pennsylvania president Amy Gutmann is now Biden’s nominee for Ambassador to Germany. The Biden administration’s FDA has speedily approved or authorized Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines including for children — all while the Penn Biden Center’s parent university enjoys massive profits from vaccine sales and FDA approval. And the Pfizer-connected FDA even knew about numerous adverse events for children related to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, but allowed children to be injected with it anyway. Now, as the FDA considers emergency use authorization for a Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children as young as six months old, the direct financial relationship between these vaccines and Joe Biden’s think tank must be exposed.

  34. (Bloomberg) — Canada’s capital declared a state of emergency Sunday as police struggled to rein in ongoing protests against vaccine mandates.

    Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson, who declared the emergency, said in a statement that the increasingly rowdy demonstrations posed a “serious danger and threat to the safety and security of residents.” Hundreds of trucks continued to occupy the downtown area near Canada’s parliament with no sign that the protesters planned to leave.

    Had BLM been burning down the downtown area, Mayor Watson would no doubt have taken a knee in solidarity with the vibrants.

    But yeah, they are escalating the situation. I’m sure a state of emergency paves the way for Canada’s military to step in and crack some skulls.

    Some say that the world is watching, but as I commented on the Mexican media’s blackout over the protests, I doubt it will be televised anywhere in the West. I hope Canadian truckers and their allies are prepared to shut down the whole country, because I think that’s what it’s going to take.

      The US government bond market is signalling that the Federal Reserve will be able to tame inflation in coming years without snuffing out growth in the world’s biggest economy.

      Treasury yields jumped last week after a much stronger than expected US jobs report, as investors bet that strength in the labour market would give the Fed further impetus to tighten monetary policy as it sought to rein in the most intense consumer price growth in almost 40 years.

      Despite the upbeat figures on the labour market, which pointed to rising wage pressure, expectations for future inflation barely budged. A Treasury market measure known as break-evens indicated that inflation would recede to less than 3 per cent in five years. That would mark a significant fall from the 7 per cent rate recorded in December. Longer term break-even rates suggest that markets are expecting the Fed to succeed in pushing inflation back towards its 2 per cent target.

      The rising yields, coupled with steady inflation expectations, have pushed returns bond investors can expect to earn after inflation is taken into account sharply higher since the end of last year. Analysts say this increase in so-called real yields indicates traders are expecting the US economy to continue expanding in the years to come even as policymakers withdraw stimulus measures to slow intense price growth.

      The yield on 30-year Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (Tips) — a proxy for the real yield on the 30-year Treasury bond — broke above zero on Friday for the first time since June 2021. It closed last year at minus 0.47 per cent, according to Bloomberg data.

      “The Fed’s control over the economy has just increased,” said Robert Tipp, head of global bonds at PGIM Fixed Income.

  37. All you have to do is read about Germany at the time of Hitler’s rise to power.
    I’m convinced that the Globalist are trying to duplicate those conditions for takeover.
    Hitler was able to take over because they had no Majority Party in Germany.
    They had the Workers Party, The Communist Party, The National Socialist Party, The Republican regular party government , Nazi Party and about 5 other factions.
    People might be surprised to know that Hitler never got more than 39 % support.
    So this condition of division and splintering in post World War One Germany left the Country ripe for a takeover by a Tyrant Dictorship by Hitler.
    So, the current Globalists have a tactic of divide and conquer by destruction of Majority values.
    Klaus Schwab and Soros are Nazi mentality if I have ever seen it. Corporate Governance One World Order is no different than the bizarre Nazi Party where Hitler wanted a World Dictorship.

    You see Biden attacking a high percentage of American Citizens calling them domestic terrorists, insurrectionists, and white racist. Biden is scapegoating the unvaccinated, and taking on a big population of Citizens with t rational American values.
    So, in other words, the Globalist in truth are such a small faction trying to take over that they have to have fake news, mass hysteria, divide and conquer , fake Pandemics, false narratives , destruction of current systems and consolidation of power by looting , rigged elections , and blocking and censorship of any dispute.
    Actually the Globalists are the enemy of all people , all races, all Countries, and they have to force their takeover because people of the Globe wouldn’t vote for their New One World Order, Great Reset, you will own nothing and like it, while you get jabbed by force.
    Just like Hitler they are faking out the Communist and other factions until they take power.

      That’s pretty common in countries with parliamentary systems. They wheel and deal to form a coalition when no one has a majority.
