Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to htt...

Interview: You Can't Be Pro-Life and Cheer Genocide at the Same Time

Gerald Celente returns in what he calls the saddest moment of his 46-year career as a trend forecaster, connecting the Iran war directly to the 1953 CIA-backed overthrow of democratically elected Prime Minister Mosaddegh — done for BP and ExxonMobil's oil — and tracing the unbroken line of bipartisan CIA criminality through Carter, Brzezinski, Reagan, Clinton, Obama, and now Trump, all the way to the Kushner-Netanyahu situation room meeting where a Mossad fairy tale the CIA director called "farc...

Gary Benoit, editor-in-chief of The New American and nearly 50-year veteran of the John Birch Society, makes the case that everything unfolding today — the unconstitutional Iran war, the federal AI power grab, the surveillance state, and the collapsing dollar — was mapped out and warned about by Robert Welch back in 1958.
