Read MoreThe White House Moron wants to tax unrealized capital gains, and some neoliberal economists think it is a good idea. Let’s take a look and see what we think. A capital gain is an increase in the price of something since you purchased it. It could be a stock, a bond, a house, artwork, gold,...
Read MoreThe idiot Biden Regime’s sanctions have turned out to be a great gift to Russia while driving up inflation in the US and its empire, forcing Washington to remove some of the sanctions. The sanctions have created a great opportunity for import substitution in Russia. Russian investment in the Russian economy prevents foreign ownership from...

I’ve yet to see anyone other than leftists, Jews, neocons, and satanic neo-Nazis actually “Standing with the Ukraine.” I’ve seen some allegedly “nuanced” takes on the Ukraine intervention. People seem to want to make themselves feel smart by saying “I understand Putin’s motivations, but I’m not going to support either side.” This isn’t really nuanced,...

Read MoreDoes the US have any understanding of what is going on? I think these people are stupid. They are sitting around saying, “hahaha, we are Great Resetting them good now!” without comprehending the implications. RT: A system allowing direct rupee-ruble payments in trade between Russia and India could be launched this week, the president of...
Read MoreGold ruble, Ukraine military collapse
Lots of startling changes yesterday. Russia announced, apparently, a gold-backed or gold-related ruble. I haven’t had time to think about all the implications. Information is hard to come by, because the US blocks Russian news in order to control the Ukraine narrative and war propaganda. The Bretton Woods system collapsed when the West seized Russian...

Mariupol, the strategic Sea of Azov port, remains in the eye of the storm in Ukraine. The NATO narrative is that Azovstal – one of Europe’s biggest iron and steel works – was nearly destroyed by the Russian Army and its allied Donetsk forces who “lay siege” to Mariupol. The true story is that the...

Like Westbrook Pegler, I’m a member of the rabble in good standing. So when I want to hang out with my kind, I click into the comboxes under my articles, or consider carefully emails about them. I did this after Unz.com reposted my VDARE.com piece on the Indians who control Big Tech, who have become...

The United States government is the king of the entire earth. They can force anyone to do anything, because of the strength of their values. No one is allowed to disagree with American wars. If people try to disagree with democracy wars, we will threaten and destroy them. That’s not just our values – that’s...

Read MoreIf not it means a devastating war
Readers regard the West’s seizing of Russian assets and foreign exchange as acts of war and wonder why Putin does not declare them as such. The sanctions are weapons being used in an effort to destroy Russia just as if they were military weapons. The countries imposing sanctions on Russia are just as involved in...
Read MoreUnfortunately, the sanctions the US put on Russia do not appear to be harming Russia at all, even as they are furthering the destruction of the economy of the West, and setting the stage for a collapse of the dollar as reserve currency. Russia has just announced that if Europe wants its oil, they’re going...

I don’t think you people understand how big of a deal all this economic stuff that is happening actually is. It’s very difficult even for me to watch it all playing out in real time. Basically, the whole world had agreed to a US-run financial system that was outside of the realm of politics. Then,...

Russia would have to be extremely foolish to borrow another cent from the West. Therefore, why protect access to foreign borrowing by continuing...

Read MoreThis is what the White House spokes idiot Jen Psaki describes as “wrecking” the Russian economy: The unprecedented sanctions against Russia have pushed energy costs higher in Europe and the US, driving record inflation and making it ever more expensive for farmers and truckers to fuel their machinery, afford fertilizer or keep up with other...
Read MoreThe US government’s Consumer Price Index indicates prices have increased 7.9 percent in the last year. While this statistic shows the highest rate of increase in forty years, it still understates the amount prices have increased, in part because the statistic is manipulated to minimize reported price increases. A stealth form of inflation is “shrinkflation.”...

The United States, which is now officially a rogue state, acting out to inflict terror on the entire world in the name of supporting a fake war they cannot hope to win, has begun more aggressively lashing out against the rest of the world.

Read MoreA commentator sent to me on Wednesday the economic component of Putin’s speech about the economic measures the Kremlin is taking to adjust to the economic sanctions, asking me to decipher it.
