We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
All:
I do not understand the Biden/Harris/Obama administration's recent decisions regarding Ukraine. Let's cross some red lines that put Europe in the crosshairs of disaster. First, they removed missile locks so that Ukraine can use them against interior Russia. I get that these are older systems, but we've been reluctant for a reason. Second, they actually decided to allow Ukraine to use anti-personnel mines. While these can be force multipliers, they leave a disastrous legacy worth avoiding with talks of winding this thing down.
Why? Why would they do these things?
As I've mentioned in earlier emails, the regime wants to bog DJT down with an unreconcilable crisis. They want to preemptively take away this diplomatic win by making it untenable for each side to backdown. Worse, they are willing to sacrifice Europe over it. They want to distract DJT from his domestic agenda. This shows how afraid they are of incoming reforms. Additionally, the apparent joy that's broken out among influencers scares them.
We need to understand, keep backing a bear into the corner, it will lash out. I still believe, the invasion of Ukraine was caused by JRB, et. al. in their declarations that a path to NATO membership existed. This was intentional. They knew who was on the other side of that threat and his concerns. They leaned into them and forced the issue. Putin would be dead today (and likely replaced with a hardliner) if he had backed down.
Is this as crass as maintaining access to and flow of $$$ from defense contractors and the military industrial complex? Or, is it the insidious approach to the utopian ideals of the Georgia Guidestones? My gut tells me its just crass money laundering and largess, but we have international "elites" focused on reducing global population. Then, there is that Deagel Report you can't find anymore.
Right now, I believe the Russia/Ukraine crisis is about to break containment. We are about to see a broader European war centered around the former Soviet republics and Germany. We may get some cyber attacks and sabotage in the US, I don't think Russia will directly engage us. However, China may take the opportunity to strike Taiwan.
Only positive I can come to is that Russia is unlikely to use a nuke as Jim Cramer stated, "Nuclear war is coming." Add that to the fact Russian nukes my not work anymore. Worse way for them to find out is to launch one. Best to maintain the illusion.
Ukrainian forces have begun training and testing exoskeletons for battlefield use. Soldiers from the 147th Separate Artillery Brigade are using them in the Pokrovsk sector for both logistics and frontline operations. The goal is to reduce physical strain, especially when loading heavy artillery shells into howitzers without automatic loaders. Artillery crews can handle up to 1200 kg of ammunition per day, and early tests show that exoskeletons help them work faster and with less fatigue Above all, by improving the conditions for those soldiers on the front lines who handle such heavy loads, plus the stress of work. Seeking to reduce overall fatigue in the troops

🇺🇸 Blue Owl Capital just disclosed that investors tried to pull 40.7% of one fund and 21.9% of another in a single quarter, and both funds gave the same answer, you can only have 5% back, and everyone else waits in line.
This is a bank run, not a normal withdrawal.
Wall Street spent the last decade selling millions of investors on something called semi-liquid private credit, higher yields, steady income and the promise you could get your money back every quarter if you needed it. What they buried in the fine print was what happens when too many people try to leave at the same time.
Analysts who have covered private credit for decades say nothing on this scale has ever been reported before at any major private credit manager.
These funds do not hold stocks you can sell on a Tuesday afternoon, they hold private loans to mid sized companies that cannot be liquidated quickly without destroying the price for every investor still trapped inside.

🇺🇸 President Trump wants to switch to war economy in 2027 with massive increase in military spending and massive cuts to healthcare and other domestic agencies
Once a deficit hawk — he said in 2016 that he thought he could balance the budget in five years — Trump ended his first term with $7.8 trillion in added debt. His 2027 proposal is expected to give an update on 10-year deficit projections currently estimated at around $16 trillion.
The GOP's message for the Midterms will be focused on the "need" for a massive defense build up while the Democrats' message will be focused on affordability.
The fiscal 2027 budget will be the first time Trump puts his second-term governing agenda into one comprehensive document — with the numbers to back it up. The budget he released last year lacked detailed line-by-line spending targets and the economic assumptions necessary to project the long-term cost of his proposals.
Investors in US Treasuries will be looking to see if the debt and ...
