Just four days after the political assassination of Charlie Kirk, @arlingtondems are “chalking” messages of hate towards @StephenM and @KatieMiller just blocks away from their home. I asked them to explain “Miller is preying on families” and all were too cowardly to respond. pic.twitter.com/BIVgRtCYfG — Corey Inganamort 🪚🌴🪚 (@TheBirdWords) September 14, 2025 They went to …
Sadly, most people don’t understand money, specifically fiat currency. Things become more expensive because the currency purchasing them becomes less valuable.

They say the economy’s fine. That’s the first lie. You walk through any town that used to have factories, used to have warehouses, used to have jobs, and you don’t see recovery. You see silence. Long-term unemployment just hit a post-pandemic high. That means people aren’t just out of work. They’ve been out for half …
It’s their fastest-growing, most concentrated segment. If one pulls back, everything suffers, including margins, hiring, and priorities.

Poland, long called NATO’s firewall in the east, has now crossed the line that European leaders feared in private but brushed aside in public. On Sunday, President Karol Nawrocki signed an order that opened the door for NATO troops to set foot on Polish soil under Operation Eastern Sentry. Within hours, fighter jets, tanks, and …
The official narrative collapsed before it even hardened. Within three days of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, the storyline lurched from a lone gunman to a digital subculture breeding an ideological militia. Tyler Robinson did not act in isolation or in a storm of private madness. He moved inside a culture of radicalization, identity politics, and militant …

by Michael When two-thirds of all the workers in your entire country are just barely scraping by from month to month, you have got a major crisis on your hands. For a long time, our standard of living has been going down and the middle class has been shrinking. But in recent years, those two …
by Michael I was recently reminded that as we were getting ready to enter September I described it as a “pivotal” month. I got to thinking about that, and I decided to look up the definition of “pivot”. According to Vocabulary.com, to pivot “is to turn or rotate, like a hinge”. I found that to be very …
Rob Schneider: While I too want the full weight of justice to be doled out to the spineless coward who murdered Charlie Kirk in front of his young children, I think a better use of this brainwashed cult member would be this: Instead of rotting for the rest of his miserable life in a prison …
The question is urgent and deceptively simple: will the market face a persistent drag as Baby Boomers begin liquidating 401Ks in retirement, and the answer might be more unsettling than most people realize. Historically, the S&P has returned about eight percent annually, a figure so often cited that it feels like gospel, but the reality …

The bank ignored red flags like large cash withdrawals linked to his sex trafficking. It settled lawsuits for $290M with victims and $75M with US Virgin Islands. Recently, Democratic senators called for hearings …
YouTube has removed a video from the PBD Podcast featuring Charlie Kirk, in which he questioned whether Israel issued a stand-down order during the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack. The video’s removal has sparked discussion about content moderation. No official statement from YouTube has been reported regarding the specific reason for the takedown. You can watch the complete episode …
The faint reassurance that the dollar still dominates is fleeting because the trend is compounding. Every deal settled in yuan, every gold warrant moved into reserves, every transaction bypassing the dollar erodes the assumption of American financial supremacy, and no press release or pundit can rewrite that reality. The question is unavoidable: who suffers first …

Wealthy Californians are pouring $2.4 million into the campaign of Zohran Mamdani, and the media barely pauses before spinning this as grassroots energy or “momentum” from coast to coast, yet the story they refuse to tell is simpler and uglier: outsiders with deep pockets are shaping elections in places they do not live, will never …
by Martin Armstrong I have been getting a ton of emails asking if this assassination of Charlie Kirk is what the computer has been forecasting about the great divide in the United States. Multiple companies across the United States are now issuing warnings to employees that they won’t have a job to go back to …

Although under Trump, the rise in the 30-year mortgage rate has slowed. But the 30-year mortgage rate is up 126% since the beginning of 2021 and the “Joe The Boss” Biden administration.

Nearly 100 Members of EU Parliament requested a moment of silence to honor Charlie Kirk. The President denied it. We got up anyway to.

This is not a new trick. Charities, NGOs, even universities have long played the same game, crying poor to the public while hoarding endowments and spending lavishly behind the curtain , but Wikipedia’s case cuts deeper, because it built its reputation on the promise of openness, transparency, and public service. Instead, the foundation has quietly …
And he has a point. Media makes it worse, whether it's far-left or far-right media, they both do the same thing…they use sound bites and video bites to generate context deficient headlines. — Jon 🇺🇸 (@MauricioDonofr1) September 14, 2025 Charlie Kirk is dead and almost nobody is hearing the full story.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent did something unusual last week: he told the truth about the Federal Reserve. In a Wall Street Journal op-ed, Bessent accused the Fed of conducting what he called a “gain-of-function” experiment in monetary policy. The analogy is deliberate and damning. Just as lab-made viruses can escape their confines and wreak havoc,… …
The receipts killed the fantasy. Import prices jumped instead of falling, which means tariffs landed on Americans, not on exporters.
