President Donald Trump thinks leftist megadonor George Soros and one of his sons should be charged as criminals.

The president published a post on Truth Social Wednesday morning calling Soros out by name and vowing to stop “lunatics” from destroying the country. He said:

George Soros, and his wonderful Radical Left son, should be charged with RICO because of their support of Violent Protests, and much more, all throughout the United States of America. We’re not going to allow these lunatics to rip apart America any more, never giving it so much as a chance to “BREATHE,” and be FREE. Soros, and his group of psychopaths, have caused great damage to our Country! That includes his Crazy, West Coast friends. Be careful, we’re watching you! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

A spokesperson for Soros’ Open Society Foundations (OSF) decried Trump’s accusations. “These accusations are outrageous and false. The Open Society Foundations do not support or fund Violent Protests. Our mission is to advance human rights, justice, and democratic principles at home and around the world,” the spokesperson said. OSF posted a similar message on its social media page Tuesday afternoon.

Soros has used his nonprofit as a vehicle for pushing into American society a plethora of changes and causes deemed destructive by any rational and objective use of the word. As outraged as the OSF spokesperson may be, there is ample evidence suggesting Trump is not wrong in saying that Soros has funded violence. His fingerprints have been found on a number of protests-turned-riots around the country over the years, as well as the push for prosecutors and policies that have led to more crime. His indirect investment in crime is quite diverse.

Campus Protests

Soros money helped fuel the anti-Israel campus protests that peaked in 2024. As the New York Post reported, the Soros-funded Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) helped pay for identical tent cities and agitators that descended on the campuses of Harvard, Yale, Berkeley, Ohio State, and Emory. It continued:

At three colleges, the protests are being encouraged by paid radicals who are ‘fellows’ of a Soros-funded group called the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights (USCPR). USCPR provides up to $7,800 for its community-based fellows and between $2,880 and $3,660 for its campus-based ‘fellows’ in return for spending eight hours a week organizing campaigns led by Palestinian organizations.

The protests became very disruptive, with many devolving into violence. Students were blocked from going to class, and, in more than 100 incidents, violence erupted. Mainstream fact-checkers tried to downplay the Soros link to the campus agitators. However, the best they could do is admit that he tried to obscure his contributions through a network of nonprofits. Politifact put it this way: “The connections between Soros’ money and specific campus protesters had several degrees of separation.” Soros was not the only one supporting these protests and disruptions.

BLM/Defund the Police

Soros also backed elements of the “mostly peaceful” Black Lives Matter (BLM) riots of 2020. More than 600 riots erupted across the country that year, causing at least $1 billion in damages and killing at least 25 people. OSF poured $220 million into “racial justice” causes in the summer of 2020. The organization admitted that some of the groups that received that money were Black Voters Matter, Circle for Justice Innovations, Repairers of the Breach, and the Equal Justice Initiative. All of those groups were involved in the 2020 protests.

By fueling these groups, Soros also supported the Defund the Police movement. That is perhaps one of the most absurd policies to ever have been widely implemented. Defund the Police achieved exactly what sensible people warned it would. It led to a steep rise in crime in every city whose leaders implemented the policy. Some of those cities included Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New York City, and Portland. Minneapolis saw a 46-percent increase in homicides and a 22-percent rise in total crime afterward, according to reports. In Portland, murders more than tripled. Shootings in New York City spiked by 40 percent, and Los Angeles saw a 28-percent increase in murders.

Soft on Crime

Soros also poured piles of cash to get soft-on-crime prosecutors elected. He is said to have funneled between $40 million and $50 million into the campaigns of radical left prosecutors who made their districts more dangerous. Chesa Boudin was one of them. The former San Francisco prosecutor eliminated cash bail and implemented reduced sentences. This triggered such a steep spike in crime that he was recalled by one of the most leftists constituencies in the country.

And Soros backed Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg, who oversaw a 22-percent increase in crime in 2021. Murders rose by 12 percent in New York. Bragg, it just so happens, also prosecuted Donald Trump in one of many lawfare cases designed to derail his path back to the White House. Other Soros-backed DAs include Los Angeles’ George Gascón, Cook County’s (Chicago) Kim Foxx, and St. Louis’ Kim Gardner. Every region entrusted to these people experienced an increase in crime under their watch.

There are more examples of Soros’ indirect support for chaos, including his involvement in the Ferguson riots, which were a warmup for the 2020 BLM riots. The evidence suggests Soros’ contributions to society have made America more dangerous for the people who make it run, for people who simply want to raise a family and work. Perhaps Elon Musk’s assessment — he said Soros “fundamentally hates humanity” — is accurate.

Family Business

In his social media post, Trump also attacked Soros’ “Radical Left son.” Soros has five children, and at least three of them have ties to their father’s “philanthropy.” But the one Trump is likely referring to in this post is Alex Soros, deputy chair of Open Society Foundations and the heir to his father’s empire of chaos. In 2023, George Soros handed control of his enterprise to Alex. George has said that he and Alex “think alike.” Alex has made clear that he plans to use his family’s fortune to continue the work his father started. He said in an exclusive interview with The Wall Street Journal that he’s “more political”; that can’t be good.

The idea that Soros’ toxic influence is here to stay may bolster Trump’s ire at this dynasty of destruction — so he’s floating allegations of criminal behavior. RICO refers to the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, a law Congress passed in 1970 to fight organized crime. It targets those involved in a racketeering activity, defined as committing at least two crimes covered under the law. Those crimes include arson, bribery, counterfeiting, distribution of a controlled substance, embezzlement, extortion, gambling, homicide, kidnapping, mail fraud, money laundering, robbery, wire fraud, and witness tampering.

Soros is already a convicted felon, as he was found guilty of insider trading by a French court in 2002. But RICO may be hard to pin on him. His activity, as pernicious as it is, does not appear to meet the standard of any of the mentioned crimes.

Trump Not Alone

But that hasn’t stopped some notable figures from agreeing with Trump’s call for criminal prosecution. Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) posted on social media, “There is no doubt that George Soros has funded violent insurrection and riots in America. Charge him.”

And Musk, who has also referred to Soros as a “psychopath,” also agrees with Trump. He posted, “High time action was taken against Soros directly.”

Some legislators have suggested that Soros be looked at closely for his role in the Russia Collusion hoax. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) recently declassified documents with more evidence that the FBI covered up a Hillary Clinton campaign plot to fabricate election-meddling connections between Trump and Russia. The Durham annex includes information on how people at George Soros’ Open Society Foundations were involved in crafting the fabricated narrative that Trump colluded with Russia.

Media figure Benny Johnson asked Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.): “Would you be in favor of an investigation into George Soros, the Open Society Foundation, what they knew in the hacking of our election in 2016?” Burchett’s reply:

100 percent. Let’s not write them a tough letter. Let’s put their a*s on the spot and pull them in. Let’s subpoena them and get them in here. Right now. I’m sick of this stuff in Washington. We drag our feet, we talk tough, and then we continuously let our country down. … Our leadership needs to come forth with that type of message to the American public and let them know this activity is not going to be accepted. They attempted to overthrow our country.

The perpetrator of Wednesday morning’s shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minnesota appears to be a gender-confused individual with extreme ideological grievances, according to public records and a video published online.

At least 20 were hit by bullets fired into the church before authorities reported the situation “contained,” including two preteen children who have died so far.

The New York Post reports that the perpetrator has been identified as early-twentysomething Robin Westman, who killed himself on the scene. CBS News reports that Westman’s mother was a “former employee” of the school who retired several years prior. Annunciation announced the retirement of a Mary Grace Westman in 2021.

The Post notes that authorities are investigating whether Westman was behind YouTube videos published hours before the attack, in which the perpetrator displays an “obsession with mass shooters – including Sandy Hook killer Adam Lanza,” flips through a notebook filled with text in both English and Russian (and what appears to be a diagram of a church), and displays numerous weapons and ammunition magazines with various messages scrawled on them, including “The Big One,” “F**k Everything That You Stand For,” “For the Children,” “Where Is Your God,” and “Kill Donald Trump.”

Journalist Ryan Saavedra highlights more messages covering weapons in the video, including “Humanity Is Overrated,” “Kill Trump Now,” “Israel Must Fall,” “6 Million Wasn’t Enough” (apparently referring to the Nazi Holocaust), and “McVeigh,” (Timothy, the 1995 Oklahoma City bomber).

The notebook also featured a “Defend Equality” sticker, with a picture of a rifle in front of an LGBT “pride” flag. Washington Free Beacon editor Peter Hasson reports that records show Westman legally changed his name from “Robert” to “Robin” in 2020, while still a minor, for the stated reason that he “identifies as a female and wants her [sic] name to reflect that identification.”

“Our hearts are broken for the families who have lost their children, for these young lives who are fighting to recover, and for our entire community,” Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said. “This was a deliberate act of violence against innocent children and other people worshipping. The sheer cruelty and cowardice of firing into a church full of children is absolutely incomprehensible.”

“May the Sacred Heart of Jesus, pierced for our salvation, pour out His mercy upon the dead, His healing upon the injured, and His consolation upon every family and loved one afflicted by this tragedy,” responded Cardinal Raymond Burke. “Let us, with renewed faith, pray for the conversion of hearts, that such acts of hatred may be transformed into occasions of grace, and that our nation may rediscover the path of peace found only in obedience to the law of God written upon every human heart, the law whose first precept is the safeguarding and care of human life.”

Though downplayed by the mainstream media, transgender violence is nothing new. This summer, 18-year-old “Felix” Winter, a girl identifying as male, was sentenced to six years in prison after admitting to two charges related to planning a school shooting in the U.K. In 2023, gender-confused female Audrey “Aidan” Hale murdered six people at a Presbyterian private school in Tennessee.

Understanding What’s Happening

It is clear that knowing what happens during a recession, whether it is in a country or in the world at large, can be crucial information to have at your disposal. Yet, even before we can counter the effects of recession in our businesses, it imperative that we have a working definition of what a recession is and how it functions. Keep reading, and I’ll explain to you the basics of recession and tell you what it is – and what it’s not.

Difference between Recession And Depression

First, let’s define recession. It is used to refer to a period of time characterized by economic contraction that is limited in time frame or scope. This is in contrast to the classic economic recession which includes a dramatic decrease in a country’s real GDP. It has been defined as a decline of more than 10% over three or four years. With this clearer distinction, we can now take a closer look at what happens during a recession.

Characteristics Of A Recession Period

The first sign of trouble comes in the form of stock market crashes. The role of many economists is to be on the lookout for the sort of trends that could foretell the coming of another recessionary period. One of the biggest indicators is the most bear markets come just before recessions. This is due to the stock markets being influenced by the economic slowdowns that occur in the months or weeks prior to the actual contraction of the economy. By the same token, the markets can also indicate the end of the recession too.

1. Rate cuts– There is also a link between interest rates and market behavior. Often, the rates will drop during a recession. These cuts are made in order to encourage consumer spending by making it cheaper and easier to borrow money. At the same time, the State or other financial institutions may impose stricter regulations on the use of financial instruments so access to these instruments or systems is limited.

2. Job losses– This results from the loss of customer demand for products and services in the manufacturing sectors. In some cases, the demand bottoms out and the industry is forced to contract in the form of factory closing and further measures the retain liquidity. One of the first moves made by businesses is to cut jobs if the required turnover has not been reached after a a few months. If the company does go bankrupt, more job losses could result following the liquidation of the company’s assets.

3. Government intervention– At some point in the process, the government will intervene in by establishing policies and introducing incentive measures like tax cuts and rebates. Like interest rate cuts, these are part of a strategy to increase or stimulate consumer spending.

Getting Through A Recession

Even if you do know what happens during a recession, it is still vitally important to remain calm. This can mean the difference between success and failure if you have a business. Panicking doesn’t help at all since you end up losing the ability think clearly. You may end up making hasty decisions that could have detrimental effects on finances.

As Israel ticks off its list of Nazi-like atrocities against the Palestinians, including mass starvation, it prepares for yet another – the demolition of Gaza City, one of the oldest cities on Earth. Heavy engineering equipment and gigantic armored bulldozers are tearing down hundreds of heavily damaged buildings. Cement trucks are churning out concrete to fill tunnels. Israeli tanks and fighter jets pummel neighborhoods to drive Palestinians who remain in the ruins of the city to the south.

It will take months to turn Gaza City into a parking lot. I have no doubt Israel will replicate the efficiency of the Nazi SS Gen. Erich von dem Bach-Zelewski, who oversaw the obliteration of Warsaw. He spent his final years in a prison cell. May history, at least in terms of this footnote, repeat itself.

As Israeli tanks advance, Palestinians are fleeing, with neighborhoods such as Sabra and Tuffah, cleansed of its inhabitants. There is little clean water and Israel plans to cut it off in northern Gaza. Food supplies are scarce or wildly overpriced. A bag of flour costs $22.00 a kilo, or your life. A report published Friday by the Integrated Food Security Phase Classifications (IPC) , the world’s leading authority on food insecurity, for the first time has confirmed a famine in Gaza City. It says more than 500,000 people in Gaza are facing “starvation, destitution and death”, with “catastrophic conditions” projected to expand to Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis next month. Nearly 300 people, including 112 children, have died from starvation.

European leaders, along with Joe Biden and Donald Trump, remind us of the real lesson of the Holocaust. It is not Never Again, but, We Do not Care. They are full partners in the genocide. Some wring their hands and say they are “appalled” or “saddened.” Some decry Israel’s orchestrated starvation. A few say they will declare a Palestinian state.

This is Kabuki theater — a way, when the genocide is over, for these Western leaders to insist they stood on the right side of history, even as they armed and funded the genocidal killers, while harassing, silencing or criminalizing those who decried the slaughter.

Israel speaks of occupying Gaza City. But this is a subterfuge. Gaza is not to be occupied. It is to be destroyed. Erased. Wiped off the face of the earth. There is to be nothing left but tons of debris that will be laboriously carted away. The moonscape, devoid of Palestinians of course, will provide the foundation for new Jewish colonies.

“Gaza will be entirely destroyed, civilians will be sent to…the south to a humanitarian zone without Hamas or terrorism, and from there they will start to leave in great numbers to third countries,” Israel’s Minister of Finance Bezalel Smotrich announced at a conference on increased Jewish settlement in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.

All that was familiar to me when I lived in Gaza no longer exists. My office in the center of Gaza City. The Marna boarding house on Ahmed Abd el Aziz Street, where after a day’s work I would drink tea with the elderly woman who owned it, a refugee from Safad in northern Galilee. The coffee shops I frequented. The small cafes on the beach. Friends and colleagues, with few exceptions, are in exile, dead or, in most cases, have vanished, no doubt buried under mountains of debris. On my last visit to Marna House, I forgot to return the room key. Number 12. It was attached to a large plastic oval with the words “Marna House Gaza” on it. The key sits on my desk.

The imposing Qasr al-Basha fortress in Gaza’s Old City — built by Mamluk Sultan Baibars in the 13th century and known for its relief sculpture of two lions facing each other — is gone. So too is the Barquq Castle, or Qalʿat Barqūqa, a Mamluk-era fortified mosque constructed in 1387-1388, according to an inscription above the entrance gateway. Its ornate Arabic calligraphy by the main gate once read:

“In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, Most Merciful. The mosques of God shall establish regular prayers, and practice regular charity, and fear none except God.”

The Great Omari Mosque in Gaza City, the ancient Roman cemetery and the Commonwealth War Cemetery — where more than 3,000 British and commonwealth soldiers from World War I and World War II are buried — have been bombed, and destroyed, along with universities, archives, hospitals, mosques, churches, homes and apartment blocks. Anthedon Harbor, which dates to 1100 B.C. and once provided anchorage for Babylonian, Persian, Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman ships, lies in ruins.

I used to leave my shoes on a rack by the front door of the Great Omari Mosque, the largest and oldest mosque in Gaza, in the Daraj Quarter of the Old City. I washed my hands, face and feet at the common water taps, carrying out the ritual purification before prayer, known as wudhu. Inside the hushed interior with its blue-carpeted floor, the cacophony, noise, dust, fumes and frenetic pace of Gaza melted away.

The razing of Gaza is not only a crime against the Palestinian people. It is a crime against our cultural and historical heritage — an assault on memory. We cannot understand the present, especially when reporting on Palestinians and Israelis, if we do not understand the past.

History is a mortal threat to Israel. It exposes the violent imposition of a European colony in the Arab world. It reveals the ruthless campaign to de-Arabize an Arab country. It underscores the inherent racism towards Arabs, their culture and their traditions. It challenges the myth that, as former Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak said, Zionists created, “a villa in the middle of a jungle.” It mocks the lie that Palestine is exclusively a Jewish homeland. It recalls centuries of Palestinian presence. And it highlights the alien culture of Zionism, implanted on stolen land.

When I covered the genocide in Bosnia, the Serbs blew up mosques, carted away the remains and forbade anyone to speak of the structures they had razed. The goal in Gaza is the same, to wipe out the past and replace it with myth, to mask Israeli crimes, including genocide.

The campaign of erasure banishes intellectual inquiry and stymies the dispassionate examination of history. It celebrates magical thinking. It allows Israelis to pretend the inherent violence that lies at the heart of the Zionist project, going back to the dispossession of Palestinian land in the 1920s and the larger campaigns of ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in 1948 and 1967, does not exist.

The Israeli government bans public commemorations of the Nakba, or catastrophe, a day of mourning for Palestinians who seek to remember the massacres and expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians carried out by Jewish terrorist militias in 1948 for this reason. Palestinians are even prevented from carrying their flag.

This denial of historical truth and historical identity permits Israelis to wallow in eternal victimhood. It sustains a morally blind nostalgia for an invented past. If Israelis confront these lies it threatens an existential crisis. It forces them to rethink who they are. Most prefer the comfort of illusion. The desire to believe is more powerful than the desire to see.

Erasure calcifies a society. It shuts down investigations by academics, journalists, historians, artists and intellectuals who seek to explore and examine the past and the present. Calcified societies wage a constant war against truth. Lies and dissimulation must be constantly renewed. Truth is dangerous. Once it is established it is indestructible.

As long as truth is hidden, as long as those who seek truth are silenced, it is impossible for a society to regenerate and reform itself. The Trump administration is in lock step with Israel. It too seeks to prioritize myth over reality. It too silences those who challenge the lies of the past and the lies of the present.

Calcified societies cannot communicate with anyone outside their incestious circles. They deny verifiable fact, the foundation on which rational dialogue takes place. This understanding lay at the heart of South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission. Those who carried out the atrocities of the apartheid regime confessed their crimes in exchange for immunity. By doing so they gave the victims and the victimizers a common language, one rooted in historical truth. Only then was healing possible.

Israel is not only destroying Gaza. It is destroying itself.

On the latest episode of The Peter Schiff Show, Peter examines the latest turn in Fed policy and the political forces steering it. He argues that the Federal Reserve has reversed course under pressure, that credit expansion still drives price rises, and that foreign central banks are accelerating a move into gold. He also warns that growing government intervention in industry risks turning markets into state-directed economies.

He points out that last week in Jackson Hole, Powell himself admitted the economy is weaker now, with growth roughly half of what it was a year earlier:

Powell said that there can be no doubt that the economy today is weaker than it was a year ago. GDP growth. In fact, he mentioned it was about half. According, I think, to his assessment, he talked about how it was running at a little over 2% a year ago, and now it’s slowed down to 1% or just over 1%. So in other words, the economy is growing at half the pace that it was growing at under Biden.

Peter says the Fed’s rationale for backing off is revealing — they claim to have overshot their targets, but the overshoot is massive when you look at inflation instead of the short-term numbers:

Now, the reason that Powell gave for giving it up is he basically said, look, we tried it. We tried to overshoot a little bit, and it didn’t really work out for us. Meaning, yeah, we tried to overshoot by a little bit, and we did it by a mile, right? They went for 2.1, 2.2, and they got 9.1, right? So, yeah, they tried to overshoot a little bit, and they overshot by a mile.

He reminds listeners that money isn’t the only thing that bids up prices — credit does, too — and that expanding credit without restraint is another form of inflationary policy:

Credit is very important because you don’t need money to buy stuff. You can buy stuff with credit. And so if you can bid up prices with credit without having any money, and we’ve raised that to an art form in America, well, expanding credit is inflation. You’ve got more credit available to buy goods. And even though the Fed was hiking, the hikes were never substantial enough to restrict the credit growth.

Peter warns that foreign central banks are already responding to this shift by diversifying away from dollars and Treasuries and buying gold, a trend he expects to accelerate as the Fed prioritizes political considerations over price stability:

The rotation that we’ve had with foreign central banks out of dollars and out of Treasuries into gold is going to accelerate as a result of this shift in Fed policy. Central banks are going to be more interested and more aggressive in their movement out of U.S. dollars because the Fed has basically said we are going to sacrifice the inflation side of the mandate because of the political pressure put on us by the Trump administration, which is still early days. We’ve still got three and a half years left of Trump and wait till Trump gets complete control of the Fed. Wait till Powell is gone and some flunky has taken his place. And they get some more FOMC members. He’s going to completely have control of the Fed.

Finally, Peter connects the dots between an inflationary currency regime and the growth of government power, warning that state involvement in private firms—whether by purchase or coercion—slides markets toward nationalization and away from capitalism:

And of course, this is the slippery slope to communism, because if you allow the government to buy into companies, and in this case, they didn’t even buy their way in, they extorted their way in. But you know, the government, if they control the printing presses, they can just print out money and buy everything. They can basically nationalize the means of production by buying everything with the money they print. They can effectively nationalize the whole economy and become a communist country. This is not capitalism when the government buys into companies or shakes them down and demands a piece of their action.

Only super-duped MAGA supporters and Israel idol-worshipping evangelicals refuse to entertain the notion that Donald Trump is being bribed by Israel over damning evidence that is buried deep within the Epstein files. But then, even if this evidence is revealed, it won’t matter to the Trump toadies in these groups.

In an interview with Judge Andrew Napolitano, former CIA analyst Ray McGovern said the following:

We tell the world that we think President Trump is motivated not only by this slavish devotion to the interests of Israel but also because Netanyahu has blackmail material on Trump in the Epstein files.

Now, I speculated about that three weeks ago. Now we have some concrete evidence from a Mossad agent who handled Maxwell and his daughter and Epstein himself. And he said, “Look, there’s stuff in there. Please, Mr. Trump, just release it. That way you can end the genocide. You can end the blackmail.”

It’s very clear that there’s something extra that Netanyahu has on Trump. We ought to educate the American people because this is heinousness squared. Okay? Heinousness in forced starvation and genocide and prompted by the violation—the sexual predating—the violation of little girls. We’ve got to do something about that to let people know. Release those Epstein files, and see what Trump is involved in. And then maybe this thing can be resolved when the blackmail material is no longer there.

And we can only imagine with what the Mossad is bribing members of Congress.

And, again, it won’t matter to Trump’s base if there is evidence of Trump’s involvement in Epstein’s pedophile activities. They already know that Trump is a moral degenerate. They already know he is a product of the criminal underworld. And it doesn’t matter to them.

Trump can trample the Constitution with impunity. He can maintain the supply of weapons to Ukraine. He can continue America’s sponsorship of the genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza and the West Bank. He can continue America’s proxy wars in Lebanon and Syria and expand America’s hot wars to Yemen and Iran. All of this is done with complete impunity. His base doesn’t care.

Trump could reprise the role of Julius Caesar, assume the position of emperor and with the stroke of a pen make the Congress and Supreme Court extinct, and his base would support him.

As evidence, one could make the argument that Trump is already in the process of attempting to do that very thing. Remember when Trump publicly said that he could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and wouldn’t lose any voters? Well, he was right, and it still holds true today.

And just two days ago, Trump said he has the “right to do anything I want to do.” These are the words of a dictator, and Trump’s base continue to give him their full support.

To the Trump toadies in MAGA and evangelicalism, Trump is more than a president; he is a god. Hail, Caesar!

Trump’s predilection to trivialize the crimes of Israelis in general (including mass forced starvation, ethnic cleansing and genocide) and the sexual abuse of children in particular was put on public display just recently in Las Vegas (the city owned by Israeli Mossad asset and billionaire donor and friend of Donald Trump, Miriam Adelson).

The editor-in-chief of The Grayzone, Max Blumenthal (who himself is Jewish), reported the scurrilous story of how the Trump Justice Department allowed an Israeli pedophile spy to fly safely out of the country after being caught attempting to have sex with a 15-year-old girl.

Blumenthal:

This really does deserve mainstream attention. I’m actually surprised that mainstream media hasn’t picked up on it more, because it highlights the complete lack of professionalism and corruption of the Trump Department of Justice and specifically one US attorney who’s been named Acting US Attorney by Donald Trump, Sigal Chattah, because over 100 lawyers and judges have declared her to be completely unprofessional and unqualified. She would not make it through a confirmation process.

She is the US attorney in Nevada handling Las Vegas. When she was campaigning in 2021 for attorney general as a Republican, a Trump Republican, her one ad was called Israeli Born, touting the fact that she was born in Israel and lived there until she was a teenager and trafficked in anti-Muslim hatred, promising that she will essentially prosecute Ilhan Omar, one of the few Muslims in Congress, when she gets in, which is something she would have no power to do, but which is kind of ironic given what appears to have happened.

There was a cyber security conference in Las Vegas that’s just filled with spooks from around the world. FBI agents are there, NSA, hackers from around the world, especially Israel. And one of the directors of Israel’s National Cyber Intelligence Directorate, who works directly under the office of Benjamin Netanyahu, Tom Alexandrovich was at that conference. He held meetings around the conference with FBI agents, with NSA agents.

Alexandrovich is an Israeli citizen who works for Benjamin Netanyahu. Actually won an award last year, according to the Jerusalem Post, for playing some role in the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah through some technology he helped create. So, we’re talking about a high-level official, an important figure in Israel.

His name was not known to the public before he went on an adult dating app, was caught in a sting by a police officer posing as a 15-year-old who said, “Will you take me to Cirque du Soleil and bring a condom?” In other words, “We’re going to have sexual relations, and I’m 15.” So, he goes and does that.

[I received a late report that the individual that Alexandrovich attempted to meet for sex was not a police officer posing as a 15-year-old girl but was actually a real 15-year-old girl, and a mentally disabled 15-year-old girl at that.]

And he [Alexandrovich] is interviewed by the police after being caught by agents. And he said, “I am desperate to get back to Israel. I am very embarrassed, and I miss my family.”

So, he declares that he’s a flight risk, and they do not take his passport. They allow him to go. And Sigal Chattah, the US attorney, kicks the case down to Clark County, the Clark County District Attorney, which is local prosecutors. So, she basically punted on the case, and now she’s blaming local liberal politicians and the local liberal DA for letting this go. But she had no interest in the case and punted on it. And she is an Israeli who has repeatedly called for genocide in Gaza on her personal Twitter account.

Now, the State Department under Marco Rubio has had to issue a statement claiming it had no role in helping Alexandrovich abscond from the United States. But we still haven’t been told how this happened. And Sigal Chattah is really on the hook here.

I should mention one other element here. Sigal Chattah is part of the Israeli American Council, which is an Israel lobbying organization funded by Miriam Adelson, funded to the hilt by Miriam Adelson, Donald Trump’s largest donor. And where is Miriam Adelson from? Las Vegas. She owns Las Vegas Sands, which her late husband Sheldon owned. She is paying tons of local politicians to make sure that they have free rein on gambling rights and gambling licenses. She basically owns Las Vegas. So, what was her role here? I know that Miriam Adelson can call Donald Trump, and he’ll do whatever she wants, and she’s speaking on behalf of Netanyahu. What we’re seeing here is sort of Epstein 2.0, and it really demands more public attention.

An Israeli accused sex predator and spy who is in the United States, apparently at the behest of Benjamin Netanyahu, top Israeli official, ICE shows no interest in him. Customs and Border Patrol showed no interest in him when he was leaving the country. So, clearly somebody gave the green light for this figure to escape.

We have a two-tiered justice system sitting right in public view. And it’s also a two-tiered immigration enforcement system which favors Israeli pedo-spies.

On their Redacted podcast, Clayton and Natali Morris also reported this Israeli spy pedo-gate story.

This should be front-page news in The New York Times, Washington Post and Wall Street Journal. But what’s happening? Nothing! Where is ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN or FOX News? Nowhere to be found.

Why not? Because the same Jewish billionaire class that owns Donald Trump and the U.S. Congress also owns the major mainstream media.

This president who claims to be the most ardent law and order president in history, who is sending National Guard troops to “fight crime” in Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., and now threatening to send them to Chicago, allows a foreign spy who is caught attempting to pay a 15-year-old girl for sex in a major American city to receive a get-out-of-jail-free card by his Justice Department, along with a free trip back to Israel.

And you know what else? When Trump’s toadies within MAGA and the Israel-worshipping evangelical churches hear this story, they will dismiss it out of hand as a “nothingburger” and then cuss out the news source that brought the story to their attention.

As I have noted before, Israel is an international safe haven for sexual predators. The Epstein operation is but the tip of the iceberg of this gargantuan crime syndicate operating inside the Israeli government. And this grossly perverse criminal syndicate has its poisonous clutches in the U.S. White House and Congress.

Who knows how deeply this Israeli pedophile syndicate is entrenched within the United States? If it’s in the White House and Congress, you know its tentacles reach down into states and municipalities.

We also know that this criminal syndicate controls America’s Christian Zionist pastors and churches—even if they don’t realize it.

And by virtue of the fact that this criminal syndicate controls Donald Trump, it also means that the people who worship Trump are allowing it to control them.

The English people have turned to Elon Musk for protection against immigrant-invader rape gangs that the UK government enables and encourages by non-enforcement to terrorize and rape English girls.  

The headline reads:  “Musk vows to fund lawsuits against UK officials over grooming gangs.”  The story is here.

Over the decades Oxford and Cambridge have infused the “colonialist, racist” British ruling class with so much racial guilt that the UK government is incapable of defending its white citizens.  Over these years, the illegal immigrant-invaders have learned that they enjoy immunity from “racist” law and have the de facto right to sexually use white English females in addition to public support from the white taxpayers.  The situation has deteriorated so much that there are 85 areas in England where white women are unsafe.

England is being erased.  In out of the way places there are still some picturesque villages with thatched and slate roofed cottages and a friendly local pub.  There are still castles and manorial estates where descendants of an aristocratic warrior class, which formed England out of chaos and protected the English from immigrant-invaders such as the Vikings, lived a civilized life.  These estates, now properties of the National Trust, are designations for bus tours that bring tourists who wander through the former residences of earls and viscounts.

But the cities are lost.  In 2021 only 36 percent of London’s population was white British.  The percentage is lower today. 

Clearly, the British ruling elite made the decision to replace the ethnic British, although some say that it is a Zionist plot to rid Jews of white gentiles.  “Multiculturalism” is the tool for replacing whites with massive unhindered third world immigration.  The function of the rape gangs is to use white females to breed more white replacements.  The same thing is happening in Europe and North America.

In England things are so unfavorable for white British that a social media post shows a video of a blond white female pub owner or manager refusing entry to a white British citizen because he has a Union Jack (British) flag.  The flag might offend an immigrant-invader.  The pub owner or manager is so indoctrinated that it does not occur to her to wonder why immigrant-invaders are in England if they are offended by the English flag. An Israeli flag might well offend a Muslim immigrant-invader, but if the pub’s spokeswoman refused entry to the Star of David she would be arrested for anti-semitism.

Another video shows two pre-teen white English girls warding off a gang-banger with a knife and a hatchet.  The police arrested the girls for threatening violence with prohibited weapons.  Nothing was done about the immigrant-invader who provoked their defense.

Looking at England we see a country with a destroyed belief system leaving it unable to protect itself and its white ethnic citizens.  Most certainly the British are incapable of going to war with Russia.  But in the meantime a lot of money will be made from bribes to purchase military weapons, money that will allow the ruling elite to escape from Britain as the country descends into its grave.

Don’t they realize, don’t they care, that they are culpable for the ongoing Zionist war crimes which they alternately ignore and promote? The USG is fully responsible for providing the material support as well as the diplomatic interference which makes it all possible. Then there is Europe. But Europe after all takes its cue from Washington which, in turn, takes its cue from Tel Aviv. An unbroken chain of lies and infamy.

The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has captured the attention of the entire world, drawing concern, debate, and urgency from policymakers, analysts, and citizens alike. Despite widespread awareness and ongoing efforts to seek a peaceful resolution, the ultimate outcome of this war remains shrouded in uncertainty. As the fighting persists and the stakes continue to rise, it becomes crucial to carefully examine the possible trajectories that could lead to the war’s conclusion. In doing so, two stark and contrasting scenarios stand out as the most plausible, each representing a radically different path forward. These scenarios are not merely hypothetical; they carry profound implications not only for Ukraine and its immediate neighbors but also for the broader stability of Europe, the security of NATO countries, and the global geopolitical order. Understanding these divergent possibilities is essential for anticipating future developments and for shaping diplomatic and strategic responses aimed at preventing further escalation or catastrophe.

Scenario One: Acknowledgment of Defeat and Surrender by the West

The first possibility hinges on a sobering and potentially unsettling reality: the Western alliance of the United Kingdom, the European Union, NATO, and the United States should finally recognize the reality that they have tragically lost the fight against Russia in Ukraine. This recognition would not be made lightly; rather, it would be the result of a combination of factors such as prolonged conflict, mounting casualties, significant resource depletion, and diplomatic fatigue that have eroded Western resolve and capacity to sustain their current level of support. Ultimately, this scenario would necessitate a formal acknowledgment of defeat, leading to a strategic and possibly humiliating surrender, signaling an end to their worthless military and political efforts to oppose Russian advances.

Such an outcome implies that the West’s military interventions, economic sanctions, and diplomatic efforts have failed to change the fundamental dynamics on the ground. The prolonged conflict, with its heavy toll on both human lives and national resources, would have culminated in a consensus that further confrontation is futile or counterproductive. Recognizing defeat would most likely lead to negotiations, compromises, and concessions that could reshape the territorial and political landscape of the region. This could include the recognition of Russian-controlled territories as part of Russia, or a negotiated settlement that cedes significant influence to Moscow.

This scenario would also entail a vital shift in regional alliances and borders, marking the end of Ukraine’s aspirations for full integration into Western institutions. It would result in a realignment of security arrangements and a recalibration of Western policies towards Russia, which would finally acknowledge Russia’s renewed regional importance and influence. Ultimately, this outcome would bring an end to active hostilities and redefine the balance of power in Europe and beyond. The global order would see a shift towards a more multipolar world, where Russia’s enhanced position influences international diplomacy and security policies for years to come.

Scenario Two: A Devastating Russian Non-Nuclear Strike

The second more provocative and alarming possibility involves Russia resorting to the use of its advanced non-nuclear weapon systems, specifically the deployment of the non-nuclear version of the Oreshnik missile system, targeting Ukraine and one aggressive NATO member country such as Germany, France, Poland, or the UK, thereby achieving a decisive and devastating victory over western aggression. This aggressive attack would be designed to inflict maximum destruction and psychological shock.

This scenario assumes that barring the possibility of the West’s surrender, Russia’s only remaining option is to escalate the conflict by deploying such a formidable weapon to indiscriminately obliterate Ukrainian infrastructure and military targets. The use of a weapon like the Oreshnik which is indubitably recognized as a highly destructive missile capable of delivering a significant payload over long distances would mark a new and dangerous phase in the conflict, aimed at delivering a crushing blow to Ukraine’s military capacity and civilian infrastructure.

The implications of such an act are profoundly chilling. It would signal a willingness by Russia to cross the threshold into large-scale destruction, possibly as a show of strength or as a means to force Western powers into concessions.

Importantly, Russia’s use of such devastating weaponry is intended not only to break Ukraine’s resistance but also to test the resolve and limits of Western alliances. It will serve as a strategic warning, demonstrating that Russia is willing to unleash destruction on a scale that could also threaten member states or their interests, thereby challenging the post-Cold War security architecture of Europe.

Crucially, such a strike on a NATO country could absolutely trigger a wave of terror and paralysis across Europe. The severity and immediacy of the attack is aimed at inducing extreme fear among European nations, potentially leading to a strategic stalemate where retaliation becomes unthinkable, either due to the devastating consequences or the chaos that ensues.

This scenario hinges on the premise that Russia’s willingness to escalate to such an extent would effectively paralyze NATO and European responses, thereby ending the war through sheer overwhelming force and fear. Simply put, such an ultimate and decisive attack would cancel all the risks of hostility escalation and broader conflict thereby inaugurating and guaranteeing global peace and security once and for all.

Potential Outcomes of the Ukraine Conflict: Pathways Toward Peace or Catastrophe

Both scenarios underscore the deeply complex and perilous nature of the Ukraine conflict, illuminating the wide spectrum of potential outcomes and the profound risks involved. The first scenario suggests a geopolitical recognition of defeat by the West, i.e., the EU, the UK, the US, and NATO, that leads to negotiations, compromise, and a reconfiguration of regional and global power dynamics. Such an outcome will pave the way for a new geopolitical order based on diplomacy,

stability, and the respect of national sovereignty thereby ending the hostilities through a negotiated settlement that preserves some degree of stability and prevents further bloodshed. This scenario emphasizes the importance of diplomatic engagement, patience, and international cooperation in steering the conflict toward a peaceful resolution, even amid ongoing hostilities.

In stark contrast, the second scenario presents a terrifying and catastrophic possibility: that the conflict escalates into extreme destruction through heightened military measures, including the use of devastating conventional or non-nuclear weapons. This path would likely result in widespread demolition and massive civilian casualties. The prospect of such escalation underscores the dangerous brinkmanship and the extremely damaging potential inherent in modern warfare, where the line between conventional and catastrophic action can become dangerously blurred. It highlights the urgent need for restraint, diplomatic dialogue, and international mechanisms to prevent the conflict from spiraling into a devastating, uncontrolled escalation that could have global repercussions.

Conclusion

As the war continues to unfold, the international community must grapple with these stark and contrasting possibilities, each representing a different endgame with profound and far-reaching consequences. The first offers a hopeful vision rooted in diplomacy and the potential for a peaceful resolution, while the second serves as a grim reminder of how escalation can lead to catastrophic destruction. The challenge lies in guiding the conflict toward the most desirable outcome: one that minimizes human suffering and preserves regional and global stability.

Ultimately, the hope remains for a peaceful resolution, ideally achieved through the formal surrender of the obvious losers, i.e., the EU, the UK, the US, and NATO, thereby preventing the horrific outcome envisioned in the second scenario. Such a resolution would require steadfast diplomatic efforts, international cooperation, and a shared commitment to peace. It is essential that all parties prioritize negotiations and constructive engagement to avoid the devastating consequences of escalation, ensuring that the conflict ends not in destruction and chaos, but in a way that safeguards human lives, regional stability, and global security. Only through such concerted efforts can the international community hope to steer the course of this conflict away from catastrophe and toward a sustainable peace.

One hundred years ago, no one thought birth control was okay. In 1920, the Anglican Communion declared,

We utter an emphatic warning against the use of unnatural means for the avoidance of conception, together with the grave dangers—physical, moral and religious—thereby incurred, and against the evils with which the extension of such use threatens the race. (Lambeth Conference 1920, Resolution 68)

By 1930, they had changed their tune to: “The Conference believes that the conditions of modern life call for a fresh statement from the Christian Church on the subject of sex” (Lambeth Conference 1930, Resolution 9). Ominous words. The conference proceeded to follow this logic on to alarming conclusions:

[I]n those cases where there is such a clearly felt moral obligation to limit or avoid parenthood, and where there is a morally sound reason for avoiding complete abstinence, the Conference agrees that other methods may be used, provided that this is done in the light of the same Christian principles. The Conference records its strong condemnation of the use of any methods of conception control from motives of selfishness, luxury, or mere convenience. (Resolution 15)

This landmark declaration rendered the Anglicans the first major Protestant denomination to approve of artificial contraception. Since then, most others have followed suit.

Despite the Anglican Church’s outcry against “selfishness, luxury, [and] mere convenience,” these vices have come to dominate the sphere of sexual ethics and even legislation.

The FDA approved the first birth control pill in 1960, an oral contraceptive called Enovid.  In 1965, the Supreme Court struck down a Connecticut law that criminalized birth control. The decision Griswold v. Connecticut legalized birth control for married couples under the “right to privacy.” In 1972, the right to contraception was extended to all individuals, married or unmarried, with Eisenstadt v. Baird.

In Fr. Sebastian Walshe’s natural law arguments against contraception, he astutely points out the similarity between the logic of birth control and the logic of gay marriage. No one need invoke the magisterium or the Bible to observe that the primary purpose of marriage is the procreation and education of children. This has been a governing societal norm for ages, and its abandonment augurs ill. Once the primary purpose of marriage is forgotten, the floodgates open for hosts of unnatural vices. Griswold and Eisenstadt led seamlessly to Obergefell.

The Anglicans of 1920 understood what their successors forgot:

In opposition to the teaching which, under the name of science and religion, encourages married people in the deliberate cultivation of sexual union as an end in itself, we steadfastly uphold what must always be regarded as the governing considerations of Christian marriage. One is the primary purpose for which marriage exists, namely the continuation of the race through the gift and heritage of children; the other is the paramount importance in married life of deliberate and thoughtful self-control. (Lambeth Conference 1920, Resolution 68)

Not only did all churches condemn birth control as recently as 100 years ago, but even the government once prohibited the distribution of artificial contraceptives. The Comstock Act, a federal law which is still on the books, was written in 1873 to prohibit “mailing obscene or crime-inciting matter.” It goes on to define “crime-inciting” as “intended for producing abortion, or for any indecent or immoral use,” but this is an amendment as recent as 1971.  The original Comstock Act also forbade anything intended for “preventing conception.”

The likelihood of criminalizing birth control at this point is slim. But Comstock gives a great to-do list for those who want to see the populace flourish: 1) criminalize abortion 2) ban contraception. How could we make abortion and birth control illegal again? Let’s look at the “due process” and “equal protection” clauses of the 14th Amendment that loomed so large in the Obergefell decision in favor of gay marriage: “[N]or shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws” (Section 1).

This sounds a lot more like a right to life enshrined in the Constitution than a penumbra of privacy justifying birth control and gay marriage. Give babies due process and equal protection. Don’t deprive them of life.

In The Abolition of Man, C.S. Lewis observes that man’s “power over nature” is often just some men’s power over other men:

What we call Man’s power is, in reality, a power possessed by some men which they may, or may not, allow other men to profit by. . .And as regards contraceptives, there is a paradoxical, negative sense in which all possible future generations are the patients or subjects of a power wielded by those already alive. By contraception simply, they are denied existence.

President Trump wants to fix the birth crisis. What if, instead of subsidizing IVF, he promoted a natural means of procreation? Want to make America great again? Then make contraception illegal again.

Yesterday on his program Dialogue Works Nima had two guests, Larry Johnson, formerly of the CIA, and me.  I come in at about the one hour mark at the close of the program with Larry. I recommend that you take advantage of the double feature.  

Nima and I discuss the severe constraints on President Trump that handicap him in his effort to bring about not only a settlement in Ukraine but also impede a wider settlement with Russia that would put the world at peace.

Larry Johnson and I agree that the easiest way for Trump to conclude the conflict in Ukraine is to stop supplying, weapons, money, and diplomatic support.  But to do this requires Trump to jettison the US military/security complex along with its budget and power which are dependent on having Russia as an enemy.  Presidents such as John Kennedy, Richard Nixon, and Ronald Reagan who had in mind winding down the Cold War ran into problems with the military/security complex. The military/security complex has military bases or armaments manufacturers in nearly every state.  The number of governors, House and Senate members, and businesses dependent on orders from military bases and weapon manufacturers is vast. The combination of taxes, employment, campaign contributions, and supply relationships is too large of a force for Trump to jettison.

Another constraint on Trump is the American doctrine of hegemony which is at odds with peace-making. The US foreign policy doctrine requires that the US take an aggressive approach to countries that could constrain US unilateralism.  In other words, the pursuit of hegemony makes a country a poor peace-maker. Trump has not repudiated the hegemony doctrine.  Instead he exercises it with his numerous threats to other governments.

As I have consistently reported, the conflict in Ukraine is a symptom and not a cause of what Putin refers to as the root cause of the conflict.  The root cause is the absence of a mutual security agreement between Russia and the West.  NATO with missile bases on Russia’s border creates insecurity for Russia.  This insecurity is the root cause. Both the material interest of the US military/security complex and the hegemony doctrine are obstacles to removing the insecurity.

As the Russian position remains the same and Zelensky remains uncooperative, perhaps Trump sees Putin getting off his butt and quickly winning the war as the escape route from the box in which Trump finds himself.  Perhaps Trump signaled to Putin, as he did to Netanyahu, to get it over with as its continuation is too embarrassing to Trump. Putin’s side of the bargain would be to let Trump grandstand in presiding over the peace agreement that ends the war.

The wider and serious problem is Russia’s sense of insecurity with NATO/US missile bases on her border. To remove the real problem of nuclear conflict, the US needs to move away from Russia’s borders and honor the agreement the George H. W. Bush administration made with Gorbachev that NATO would stay distant from Russia’s border.

Our country is on the verge of self-destruction because the American Dream no longer existsm for twenty-year-olds. It only exists for highly-paid couples at the end of child-bearing years. Everyone else is to live in Stack-and-Pack vertical housing, without private transportation except for bicycles. They will pay excessive rents and therefore accumulate no equity, and will live in fear. Most importantly they will have fewer children (and those later in life) at a rate  below the replacement level.

There are countless very negative results because of the Death of the American Dream. But I will only list a few because I know that only our returning to Constitutional Government is required…otherwise the American Dream is impossible.

Economic implications are widespread and ominous. To see the results, look at the inner cities of New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, which are now Communist Hell-Holes without safety, religion, or good schools…and Communists have no plans to improve them. We must return to a Free Enterprise System AKA a Market Economy/Supply and Demand. There must be private ownership of property and the means of production. If someone can’t work, there should be a safety net, but if they are able-bodied and don’t work, they starve. It is that way in most of the world except for Socialist countries.  It is reality.

You may think the solution is complex, but it is really simple: we need only return to what we had before the Coup of 1913. I did not say the solution would be easy, just simple.

The first thing we have to do is terminate the Income Tax and finance the Federal Government with Tariffs and Excise Taxes, as we did prior to  States can contribute to the federal government if it needs more money. But the Federal Government should not need more money if all unconstitutional activities are terminated. Let that sink in.

The federal Government has unlawfully usurped many functions of the states in violation of the Enumerated Powers explicitly set forth in our Constitution.

These usurped functions number in the thousands, and cost billions. Two unconstitutional functions that cost billions are our military stationed in other countries, and Foreign Aid. If other countries could invade us, it might be different…but they can’t. We can only be defeated by weapons of mass destruction, or from within by the 21 million Democrat/Communist army of illegals. I will repeat, we have no business being involved in the affairs of any country in the world, and that includes Israel and Ukraine. When Congress votes to fund unlawful offshore projects that spend taxpayer money, it is taking the food out of the mouths of Americans, and I think it is treason. I might add that I think any money spent off shore is unlawful.

With the income tax terminated, all federal funds to the states for any reason must be terminated. This means all welfare, FEMA, Agriculture and Education grants as examples, but the key is termination of all federal funds to the states. We are in this near-terminal state because we failed to control the greed of Congress and bureaucrats of the Administrative State who succumbed to the bribes of the Parasitic Super- Rich Ruling Class and countless others. In the final analysis, the last nail in the coffin was the failure of the corrupt and complicit FBI to investigate, charge and convict all parties to corruption in government. This is what happens when you ignore the Constitution that specifies that the Militia of the Several States should enforce the laws of the union. They got the Militia out of the way with the unconstitutional Dick Act.

President Trump’s election stopped our descent into civil war, and his programs will buy us time to return to a Constitutional government. If he continues to refuse to return to a Constitutional Government, the result will be Dystopian, Total Failure, Depression, and Civil War. There is no other possibility..

In conclusion, it is simple to return us to a market economy, prosperity, and the American Dream for 20-year-olds. We need only follow the Constitution, knowing that the miscreants will not stop at assassination to prevail, as they did with President Trump and President Kennedy.
