THE LYING INFLATION NUMBERS – Well, it’s time again for our monthly dose of lies about the economy. No, this isn’t the jobs report. We’ve covered that before, how every time they issue a report about how many jobs they create, they – ‘after further review’ – let us know that there were a whole-bunch-fewer jobs created than what they originally told us. The inflation game is played a different.
Well, the Consumer Price Index came out this week. It rose 0.3% for the month. That’s higher than anticipated and puts it at a yearly rate of 3.3%. The CPI is slightly different than the core inflation rate. That sits at 3.2% for the year through August. But that rate does not include food and energy, two major expenses in most American’s budget. John Williams runs Shadowstats which still figures inflation the way it was done back in 1980. The Shadowstats inflation rate – real inflation – stands at 12%. That’s the number that Americans feel in their pockets.[i] [ii]
Newsweek Magazine, of all places, gave this explanation of where our economy is at. “The Consumer Price Index rose by 19 percent during the first 3 ½ years of Biden’s presidency, according to Forbes magazine. Inflation actually peaked at a rate of 9 percent in the middle of 2022.The average cost of gasoline nationwide was $2.28 per gallon at the end of Trump’s term but has now risen to $3.24 last month – a 42 percent increase! By way of comparison, prices only rose 6 percent during the first 3 ½ years of Trump’s presidency – a rate of slightly less than 2 percent per year (the Federal Reserve’s long-term target is 2 percent).”[iii] Inflation is at its’ root a monetary phenomenon. We’ve printed / borrowed too much money. That will ALWAYS drive prices up. When the money supply goes up….so does the cost of everything.
SEXUAL MUTILATION PAYS – From a headline in Modernity: “US Hospitals Made $120 Million From ‘Sex Changes’ On Children” – “Statistics compiled by medical watchdog Do No Harm reveal that around 14,000 kids were subject to either puberty blockers, cross sex hormones or full on ‘sex change’ surgeries, including mastectomies on 14 year olds, between the years 2019 and 2023.”[iv]
WAITING FOR THE OTHER SHOE – Israel seems on the verge of launching a major retaliatory attack against Iran, payback for the nearly 200 missiles Tehran sent its’ way. Israel’s Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant had a message for the Iranians. “The recent Iranian attacks against Israel were aggressive, however they failed because they were not precise. The Air Force was unharmed – all the runways are operational, our activities are ongoing, not a single aircraft was damaged, not a single soldier or civilian was harmed….Whoever attacks Israel will pay a price. Our strike will be powerful, precise, and above all – surprising. They will not understand what happened and how it happened.”[v] Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi answered with a threat of his own. “We tell the Zionist regime [Israel] not to test Iran’s resolve, as any attack on Iran will be met with an even stronger response than before.”[vi]
Meanwhile Israel is continuing to pound Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon as well as Hamas fighters in Gaza. Israeli troops are operating in Lebanon, destroying Hezbollah strongholds, tunnels and weapons caches. Amir Tsarfati reported on October 8th: “Over 500 Hezbollah terrorists were killed since the beginning of the ground maneuver, 5 days ago.”[vii] The IDF continues to eliminate top leaders of the terror organization. It is speculated that Israel will go after the Iranian oil facilities.
MANDATORY VACCINES – Headline in the Expose: “Proposed Northern Ireland Public Health Bill sets into law mandatory vaccines” The new law would not classify vaccines as medical treatment but rather a prophylactic. This would execute an end run around the principle of informed consent.[viii]
WOKERY GONE WILD – Here are a couple of examples of laws in foreign lands that defy rationality. I am sure they are on their way to the US. “In Canada it is illegal to use the words “boy” and “girl” since they are considered right-wing and dangerous and in the UK, it is considered racist to teach or learn mathematics.”[ix]
