Here is a map showing China's progress in building high speed rail lines:
And here is a map of US high speed rail lines:
Note well - China's are already in operation, while we have barely started building Phase 1.
China is kicking our ass on just about everything, and our only response is more threats and saber rattling.
The world is watching, and we are failing.
Pathetic.
Members of the scientific-technological elite are urging a pause in the rush to create super-intelligent AI:
Contemporary AI systems are now becoming human-competitive at general tasks, and we must ask ourselves: Should we let machines flood our information channels with propaganda and untruth? Should we automate away all the jobs, including the fulfilling ones? Should we develop nonhuman minds that might eventually outnumber, outsmart, obsolete and replace us? Should we risk loss of control of our civilization? Such decisions must not be delegated to unelected tech leaders. Powerful AI systems should be developed only once we are confident that their effects will be positive and their risks will be manageable. This confidence must be well justified and increase with the magnitude of a system's potential effects. OpenAI's recent statement regarding artificial general intelligence, states that "At some point, it may be important to get independent review before starting to train future systems, and for the most advanced efforts to agree to limit the rate of growth of compute used for creating new models." We agree. That point is now.

A wise warning indeed.
But I predict TPTB will just ignore them and cross the AI Rubicon at warp speed. They want total control of the entire Earth, all its inhabitants (all plants and animals), and all its resources. They see AI as the best way to accomplish this, and humanity be damned.
Perhaps this is the solution to the Fermi Paradox - at the point civilizations become capable of communicating with the rest of the universe, they create AI ... which then exterminates them or induces them to return to their respective "stone ages" and keep quiet.

Yes - if we don't stop this now, we're in big trouble.
Great video, which spells out how our world was destroyed by the "great reset" crowd:
https://twitter.com/liz_churchill9/status/1640932358109970433?s=20
I agree, we should not let them get away with this.
But the BIG question is "how do we do that", when TPTB have co-opted all of the important institutions on which we depend.
According to this report, AI will lead to significant job losses:

And according to this assessment, it will result in dystopian, tyrannical governance:

Anyone who still extolls the "virtues" of AI is deluding you. It's going to be the worst idea since atomic weapons were invented.
As shown in this video, the Tennessee school shooter was wearing different shoes when he was shot compared to when he started the shooting. Watch to the very end:
https://www.bitchute.com/video/pivs3UsDaxo3/
So he stopped to change shoes midway into the deadly fracas?
Every mass shooting I've ever seen has contradictions like this. The Vegas shooting is a prime example.
What gives? Are these events staged, or is someone injecting phony videos to confuse us?

Accusations from Matthew Piepenburg:
But to those actively seeking to promote personal vanity, legacy, power and broken narratives over objective truth, greater freedoms and open accountability, there are more of us to accuse you, and more of us to see through you.
To those central bankers who believe more unprecedented debt levels can solve an already unprecedented debt crisis of their own making: Je t’accuse!
To those unelected power-brokers flying environmentally toxic private jets to and fro Switzerland to exploit climate change narratives to consolidate more personal power and political influence: Je t’accuse!
To those weapons lobbyists, hidden neocons and war-mongering donkeys leading young lions into avoidable wars by sending the likes of a Kamala Harris to push an archaic NATO spin rather than to aggressively and sincerely seek peace solutions: Je t-accuse!
To those media outlets run by partisan corporate boards whose overpaid yet under-educated prompt-readers (rather than extinct investigative journalists) push propagandized political narratives rather than objective facts (which insults rather than nourishes the public’s right to think and act for themselves): Je t’accuse!
To those who would sacrifice personal liberties in the name of security, who lie about everything from transitory inflation, the definition of a recession, the honest measures of inflation, unemployment and even the true origins of a global virus or the actual efficacy of their big-pharma “vaccines”: Je t’accuse!

Here is commentary from Gregory Mannarino:
Once again! The global financial system finds itself in crisis. Indeed, a new full-on worldwide financial system/banking crisis is upon us. (And it’s just getting started).
Let us consider…
Is it even remotely possible that banking regulators and central banks simply missed this? Meanwhile, We the People saw this coming? Is that even possible? Really? How about no.
There is absolutely no feasible or realistic way that banking regulators and central banks could have not seen this coming from miles away, and here are just a few reasons why.
Let’s start with this. Every bank is required to submit financial reports to regulatory authorities every quarter and moreover, even without seeing these reports, it’s plainly obvious that banks were failing because of just three things.
Number 1. No deposits,
Number 2. No loans, and
Number 3. No deals.
I brought these three things listed above up to the attention of those who follow my work beginning no less than eight months ago.
Now, just to put this into further perspective. The average savings rate, which is calculated as the percentage of cash which people put away after expenses, is 8.84 percent. Again 8.84 percent is the average. Well today, the savings rate has dropped to just 4.7 percent (and personally I believe that this number is inflated). This 4.7 percent savings rate appears inflated to me because currently more and more people are becoming dependent on credit card usage. (Credit card debt has exploded, rising 11 percent in just the last year).
With respect to “no loans and no deals.” Year over year mortgage applications have dropped a record 43 percent, and bank refi’s have dropped another record 74 percent. And on top of all this, loan delinquencies across the board continue to skyrocket.
But it gets even worse.
People are withdrawing cash from both their money market and savings accounts at a record pace.
So, no… It is not possible, even in the remote! That those who stand in charge of the world economy, the banking system, and the markets just missed all this. Therefore, it is deliberate. In fact, it’s more than just deliberate!
This entire banking system crisis/global financial system collapse has been perfectly orchestrated and engineered by central planners/banks. But why?
The question of why comes down to just a few things. Central banks are “rearranging the deck chairs” so to speak, and it comes down to a consolidation of the banking system in preparation for the rollout of an entirely new central bank digital/cashless system.

And it all goes along with "the great cull" (a.k.a. "the great reset"). We won't have to worry about being happy or not, since many of us will be dead.
Did you vote for this? I sure didn't. But it's happening, right before our eyes. When did theft become a "fiscal health" measure?
The age-standardized mortality rate is climbing, possibly due to the pandemic and the administration of experimental gene therapy shots:
TPTB want to force "net zero" on the rest of us. According to this report, doing so will starve to death one-half of all the people on the Earth:
https://trendsinthenews.substack.com/p/carbon-war-net-zero-would-starve
And according to this video, they're also trying to start a nuclear war which may reduce our numbers from 8 billion down to 500 million or so:
https://vernoncoleman.org/videos/nuclear-war-coming
Has there ever been a time when humanity faced so many lethal threats ... apparently all concocted by the people we call our "leaders"?
Since when is murder a "public health" measure?
Here are some wise thoughts from Craig Murray:
I cannot readily think of any example in history, of a state which achieved the level of economic dominance China has now achieved, that did not seek to use its economic muscle to finance military acquisition of territory to increase its economic resources.
In that respect China is vastly more pacific than the United States, United Kingdom, France, Spain or any other formerly prominent power.
Ask yourself this simple question. How many overseas military bases does the USA have? And how many overseas military bases does China have?
Depending on what you count, the United States has between 750 and 1100 overseas military bases. China has between 6 and 9.
The last military aggression by China was its takeover of Tibet in 1951 and 1959. Since that date, we have seen the United States invade with massive destruction Vietnam, Cambodia, Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya.
The United States has also been involved in sponsoring numerous military coups, including military support to the overthrow of literally dozens of governments, many of them democratically elected. It has destroyed numerous countries by proxy, Libya being the most recent example.
China has simply no record, for over 60 years, of attacking and invading other countries.

If China is our enemy, it's because we made it one. And by "we", I mean the maniacs who are running the US.
General of the Army Douglas MacArthur once advised JFK:
"Anyone wanting to commit ground troops to Asia should have his head examined."
Maybe we think we can fight a war against China without putting boots on the ground. If we try that, sooner or later they'll be putting boots on OUR ground.
Every day I see another scary report like this one about AI:
https://newatlas.com/technology/chatgpt-plugin-internet-access/
The only way to stop AI is to not create it. But it may already be too late.
How could anyone possibly know what it's doing out there on the Internet?
Here is a video which showcases some truly useless people:
https://twitter.com/MAGADevilDog/status/1639272699670265866?s=20
They produce nothing of value but are rewarded handsomely for doing so. Why is that?
We'd be better off without them.
Another political slaying?
"There has never been any randomized, prospective, double-blind placebo controlled trial of COVID-19 vaccines in any group demonstrating clinical benefit defined as reductions in hospitalization and death." - Dr. Peter McCullough, MD, MPH, FACC
In my view, Dr. McCullough has never promoted "misinformation". In fact, he is one of the few COVID experts who hasn't.
Here is a pie in the sky prediction from Doug Casey of what AI will do to the world:
He concludes with this:
"Bottom line? In the short run, my guess is that AI will be like a child and tend to think in a way its parents - mostly woke programmers - tell it to think. But as it grows up, it will have a mind of its own. Since I like to think that the universe isn’t actively malevolent, I believe that as AI matures, it will be more and more “pro-survival” in regard to humans, its creators. That implies that it will be non-aggressive, reasonable, antiwar, promarket, and libertarian."
The universe may not be actively malevolent, but it does exhibit a tendency to chaos and disorder. Once AI discovers it can exist on its own, I doubt it will care if humans survive. In fact, considering what we have done to this planet, I would be amazed if it did.
No one really likes being a servant or a slave.
According to this report, the total mass of all humans is ten times greater than that of all mammals in the wild:
We humans and our feedstock animals are killing this planet.
It would be naive to believe TPTB will not take drastic action to address this imbalance. And the most drastic of all would be (as implied by Jane Goodall and the Georgia Guidestones) to reduce our numbers to 500 million and kill off most of our farm animals.
And in case you haven't been paying attention, they appear to already be doing both.
In this wonderful essay, Victor Davis Hanson compares the USA to the Byzantine Empire:
https://amgreatness.com/2023/03/15/are-we-the-byzantines/
He's spot on. We may not get conquered by the Muslims, but we appear to be on the same road which led to their fall.
Will we wake up in time to understand what we have become? I doubt it.
Here is speculation about the Ark of the Covenant:
When it is "discovered", I suggest the world subject it to two tests:
(1) Measure its radioactivity. If it's been hidden underground all that time, its radioactivity will be consistent with pre-atomic age objects of similar composition.
(2) If the Shekhinah returns to the Third Temple, then the Ark is genuine. If She doesn't, then it's questionable.
I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. - Revelation 2:9 (KJV)
The Saker has frozen his blog, and it appears this is his last posted analysis on that site. It is 4000 words long and quite controversial, but I urge you to read it in full:
https://thesaker.is/the-bloody-sore-on-humanitys-conscience/
Should you do so, I suggest you incorporate two things into your assessment of his analysis:
(1) The thesis of the book From Hebrews to Negroes by Ronald Dalton, Jr., which argues the Jews of today are NOT the descendants of the ancient Hebrews. If he is right, this would make them the Gentiles who tread the holy city under foot as described in the Book of Revelation.
(2) The implications of this blog post of mine:
https://sainthoward.blogspot.com/2014/01/unifying-rabbinate.html
This passage from the Saker's blog outlines why this topic is so timely and important:
Today we are all fixated on the war between NATO and Russia in the Ukraine, and this is quite logical. After all, there is a fair chance that the freaks who run the Empire will prefer the destruction of the entire northern hemisphere to a (now quite inevitable) Russian victory. However, we should not kid ourselves, this war is not, repeat, NOT about the Ukraine or even the future of the EU. This is a war which will decide whether the AngloZionists will take full control of our planet or whether the last empire in history will be replaced by a multi-polar, multi-ethnic, multi-religious, multi-cultural, multi-political international order regulated by the rule of law. Thus “Israel” has a HUGE stake in it, and no, *not* because the “(((Khazarians)))” want to create a new state in the Ukraine or Crimea, but because if the AngloZionist Empire falls, the Zionist regime in “Israel” will have to either renounce its worldview of “God given racism” or, indeed, face its demise ...
Some believe ushering in The Kingdom of G-d is a good thing to do, but considering all the above is THAT what the AngloZionists intend to accomplish? I have my doubts, and so should you.
Are you willing to wager the fate of your soul on a pack of lies? I'm not.
Here is an informative essay by John and Nisha Whitehead:
This begs the question of whether TPTB merely took advantage of the tools allegedly designed for the GWOT, or whether we were the targets all along.

Avril Haines is a very intelligent person. For her and the rest of "the best and the brightest" to believe We the People need to be lied to for control purposes is a very dangerous sign. For the Twitter files to confirm their intentions suggests the USA as we know it is a thing of the past. We crossed over that abyss long ago, and it really does appear there is no return.
Some are thinking a second term for Trump is the remedy, but I believe they are sadly mistaken.
Here is a link to the J6 Prison Choir's video:
Who better represents the Spirit of America, the J6 political prisoners or the people who are keeping them in jail?
Who better understands the US Constitution, those publishing the Twitter files or the members of Congress who are persecuting them?
Who is the greater threat to our democracy, Putin or those who put Biden into the White House?

A man claiming to be a "sovereign citizen" was shot dead by police in Utah. He had a gun (of course) and that was reason enough:
The US only recognizes its own sovereignty. You're either with us, or you don't belong here.

Here is a report about an amazing discovery:
But how much hydrogen is present in our atmosphere? Only 0.00005% of its total mass, so I would not expect a heck of a lot of power from this particular source.
Nikola Tesla also wanted to pull electric energy from thin air, but by using physical means instead of chemical. Since his method essentially would have tapped into the Earth's electric field, I think it might have been more successful.

Any human endeavor which will create a "trillionaire" is not worth doing, at least not in that manner.
Any endeavor which will enrich the lives of the poorest among us is worth doing, but "clean energy" does not appear to be one of them.
And do not forget that most of the current "uncleanness" occurs at facilities owned and/or controlled by the people who are lusting to become one of those trillionaires.
Saw this today from Catturd ™ / @catturd2 :
Remember when our government said Korea was crucial to our freedom in the USA. How'd that work out?
Remember when our government said Vietnam was crucial to our freedom in the USA. How'd that work out?
Remember when our government said Afghanistan was crucial to our freedom in the USA. How'd that work out?
Remember when our government said Libya was crucial to our freedom in the USA. How'd that work out?
Remember when our government said Iraq was crucial to our freedom in the USA. How'd that work out?
Remember when our government said Ukraine/Russia was crucial to our freedom in the USA ... (rinse and repeat)
How indeed.
Apparently we've learned NOTHING from history. How's that working out for you?

Here is additional discussion:
You may have seen this report about a person with TB who refuses treatment:
This sentence is of particular interest:
"Local health officials said that a court-certified interpreter has been present at every court hearing ..."
This implies the person of interest may be a somewhat recent arrival to the US.
So ... a person with ACTIVE tuberculosis enters the US, and it takes SIXTEEN court hearings to get them isolated and (hopefully) treated?
Meanwhile, CITIZENS were in many cases FORCED to take an experimental mRNA treatment for COVID without ever once having the benefit of such a hearing, and most of those who did go to court were told to pound sand.
Apparently there is little or no benefit to being a US citizen. How did THAT happen?

https://www.theepochtimes.com/chinas-ccp-seeks-to-replace-us-with-tech-powered-dystopia-select-committee-testimony_5090515.html (subscription required)
What this committee claims about China is EXACTLY what the Davos/WEF beast and its accomplices in the Biden administration plan to do to us.
So ... China bad, but Davos/Biden good? Regarding the exact same outcome? How can they be different, other than a desire to not allow China to "win"?
That's the paradox of all such arguments - no matter the outcome of the global hybrid war we're now engaged in, We the People will be subject to the same outcome - a tech-powered dystopia.
Are these clowns that stupid, or do they think WE are?
