Russia and China are Hunting for Big Game
A big game hunting season is underway. It seems that Russia and China are now hunting for the biggest game of the last 100 years: America.

Russia and China (supported by a number of their secret allies) represent a formidable power. They will cause some serious damage to America, and that will lead to geopolitical shifts. But America is not going to be an easy prey—it is the world’s most warlike nation. The hunters could bec... read more

“Media Isn’t Warning You” That US Careening Towards Food Crisis
Two weeks after the Russia-Ukraine crisis began, the world is quickly moving toward a food crisis that could affect millions of people. A spillover of the crisis could soon spark agricultural mayhem in the US. The curtailment of agricultural exports from Russia and Ukraine will have dramatic knock-on effects on global food supplies. Both countries are known as the 'breadbasket of the world' and are responsible for a quarter of the international wheat trade, about a fifth of corn, and 12% of all calories traded globally. Another major problem is access to fertilizers, as Russia has... read more

"The Great Depression II"; “The Bubble Pops March 16th At Exactly 2 P.M"
*"The Great Depression II"* by Jeff Thomas "Whenever a movie has been a huge hit, the film industry tries to follow it up by doing a sequel. The sequel is almost invariably far more costly, as there’s the anticipation by those who create it that it will be an even bigger blockbuster than the original. The Great Depression of the 1930’s is seen by most people to be the be-all and end-all of economic catastrophes and there’s good reason for that. Although the economic cycle has always existed, the period leading up to October 1929 was unusual, as those in the financial sector had bec... read more
IN CASE YOU THOUGHT RON DeSANTIS COULD BEAT DONALD TRUMP IN A HEAD-TO-HEAD MATCHUP
NBC News reports: Gov. Ron DeSantis is in a strong position to win Florida again, but he could get crushed in a presidential primary if he faces Donald Trump, according to a poll of voters in Miami-Dade, the largest and most diverse county in the state, released Monday. In a hypothetical primary matchup between Trump and DeSantis, the former president leads his former protégé 55-32 percent among Republicans in the county, the new poll from Bendixen & Amandi International suggests. This is DeSantis's home turf, but Trump is still *the man* for GOP voters. In January, The Bulwark's... read more

Russia Has Just Cause Unlike a Legion of US/NATO Criminal Wars
Russia’s military operation in Ukraine, now in its third week, was a justified response to aggression based on self-defence. The threat from the NATO-backed Kiev regime is made all the more dangerous with the apparent discovery of bioweapons in Ukraine that were being developed covertly by the Pentagon.

Will Russian Sanctions Cause The Next Global Financial Crisis?
*Fortune: **Taiwan Is Closely Watching And Studying The Russia - Ukraine War* BlackRock funds have taken a $17 billion loss as a result of its Russian exposure since Putin’s invasion of Ukraine began in late February—and it’s not the only Western bank or asset manager set to take a sizable hit. International banks are owed roughly $121 billion by Russia-linked entities, according to data from the Bank for International Settlements—and because of the recent decoupling of the West and Russia, clients may not get most of that money back. BlackRock’s clients held around $18.2 billio... read more
