Political Seismic Earthquake
April 29, 2024 18:15 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBAmerica's financial preeminence is coming to a close. The Russian Federation will defeat the Ukrainian army, with President Zellenski exiled to Poland. Russia will return dominating Ukraine's internal political structure. More importantly, the European Union is going to enter into partnerships of trade, financial, military, and cultural exchange with the Russian Federation, ending America's reliance as the reserve currency in the World. Nato's alliance will be dissolved with America's militar...
Something Replaceable
April 15, 2024 18:33 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBI'm a natural man, not a Democrat, nor a Republican, a Socialist, a Communist, or even an Anarchist. I know this: When something in nature is removed, it's replaced with something else. Our politicians will tell you everything is all right. In fact, they'll say things couldn't be better. But spending 18 hrs. a day looking at an electronic screen is producing unhealthy behaviour. We're being manipulated into believing consumerism and profits are the path to contentment. It's creating distortio...
Isn't Everybody Happy
April 08, 2024 18:39 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBI make predictions by what is happening today. America's economic influence and prestige since World War II is coming to a close. We're financing two wars with a potential third on the horizon from a government that is over 34 trillion dollars in debt. If Iran now has nuclear weapons the Middle East could result in a nuclear war. Especially if the Persian Gulf is running out of oil. Europe will strengthen it's ties with the Russian Federation ending our influence there, forcing America to cap...
Enemy From Within
March 25, 2024 19:58 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBThere won't be any escaping from our future. Corruption in all of its various forms will result in unimaginable pain for Americans. In the near future, we may see rank and file in our military unwilling to follow orders or worse sabotage resources like ships and aircraft. It will reach into our lowest ranks all the way up the chain of command. Suicide rates are rising in our military and those rates will change to sabotage and outright rebellion. This country is no longer safe. We may never h...
Future Nuclear Wars
March 18, 2024 19:06 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBWe said we could build nuclear weapons to keep the peace. But we never understood that the human condition of envy, greed and violence would win out. In the future, when Iran and Israel use nuclear weapons the World will blame America for its failed Policy of Deterrence to keep the peace. The unimaginable will have become a reality. And so, America will be viewed as a pariah country, despised and ridiculed for having brought death and destruction. There will be a heavy price to pay for that w...
Surveillance
March 04, 2024 20:13 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBIt's true: American's distrust our government and our government distrusts Americans. Our representatives aren't really interested in serving the people. No, they're motivated to preserve the well being of the government and not the public. That's why governmental agencies listen in to millions of American telephone conversations and randomly document the faces of people with surveillance cameras. Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness are illusions designed to prevent you from seeing inf...
The Collapse
February 26, 2024 19:05 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBThe Collapse. Let's put our emotions aside and look at our present condition. We're supplying two wars financially and militarily: The Ukraine / Russian Federation war and the Middle East with Israel/ Hamas, Hizbollah war. Plus, our Navy is being attacked in the Red Sea by Houthis in Yemen, also our military stationed in Syria and Iraq are attacked daily by Shia backed Iranian National Forces. Then there's the potential threat with the People's Republic of China against Taiwan's sovereignty. ...
America’s Cash Register
February 19, 2024 21:38 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBAmerica's Cash Register. There's a rising tide against America's support of Israel leveling the Gaza Strip. If the Palestinian people hated the Israelis before they slaughtered 1200 of them on Oct. 8th, then the destruction of the Gaza strip won't just create fear in the hearts of the Palestinians and the Arab World but generations of revenge. It's hard to believe Americans will remain free from retribution for our involvement. There are a lot of people in this world who would like to bring ...
Untrustworthy Government
February 12, 2024 21:55 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBUntrustworthy Government. Can the American people trust what their government tells them? Or what's worse, do news organizations fail their professional obligations by aligning with politicians? There are powerful people who are continually reelected to office for 30 or 40 years and are masters at manipulating the truth. These are very clever people and they hire staffers like writers, lawyers, or consultants with degrees from Harvard, or Yale, knowing how to make what is bad look good. They'...
Plenty to Worry About
February 05, 2024 20:06 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBPlenty to Worry About. We recently ended our twenty year war with Afghanistan leaving behind billions of dollars of weapons. Now we're actively involved with two wars: The Middle East war and the European war with Ukraine and the Russian Federation. Including bombing the country of Yemen protecting ships transiting in the Red Sea. The truth is we can't run a war economy and a bread and butter economy without inflation. This government is in debt to 34 trillion dollars. We're about to experien...
Rural vs Urban
January 22, 2024 19:06 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBRural vs Urban. I'm a natural man, so my preference is for small town values. But that doesn't mean rural America is free from corruption. It's just at a smaller scale. It's a human trait and not confined to one political party. Politicians reelected to office for 30 or 40 years are corrupted by power. I want peace in the Middle East and I propose this: For every 1 million dollar missile the Raytheon Corp. makes to destroy a building in the Gaza Strip, Raytheon should pay a 10% compensation f...
Biden or Trump
January 15, 2024 20:19 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBUnless things change rapidly, the 2024 Presidential election is shaping up as a replay of the 2020 contest. Of course, time marches on. As President, Joe likes to claim he's brought prosperity to America. He says he's building the bottom up and the middle out by taxing the rich. Putting that aside, two hot wars are raging, there's a record number of immigrants entering the southern border and inflation persists. Meanwhile, Donald is facing maybe a dozen legal court battles that have increase...
Sins of the Father
January 08, 2024 19:10 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBThe acorn never falls far from the tree, including politicians ambitions. I'm not an advocate, a benefactor, or a propagandist for a Republican or Democrat. Pealing away the various layers of the political onion reveals a corrupt center. It's said, the sins of the father shouldn't be visited on the child. Conversely, maybe the sins of the child shouldn't reflect on the father. Hunter Biden at 26 was appointed as an executive to the MBNA bank, the largest private employer in the state ...
The Big Switch
December 26, 2023 00:40 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBYou don't think the people in control are going to tell you the truth, do you? If oil is running out, failing to supply 19 million barrels a day to run our economy would create a financial crisis. Nobody at the top is going to tell you there isn't enough oil. Instead, they're hurrying to switch to electric vehicles because of a climate crisis. The climate is changing, but electric vehicles won't stop it. If oil is in short supply expect a panic and economic catastrophe. Buying an 80 thousand ...
Building a new Palestine
December 18, 2023 19:11 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBIf Palestinians were given 9,000 sq. miles of land where would it be? Well it wouldn't be the 9,000 sq. miles the Israelis claim is theirs. The truth is Ottoman Sultans claimed control of a good part of the Middle East for 500 years until 1918 including what is now Israel, and the Sultans aren't getting it back either. 9,000 sq. miles should be bought from Egypt in the Sinai. It would create new wealth for Egypt. The World, America and Israel would have to build new housing, new schools, new ...
Nuclear Confrontation
December 11, 2023 20:04 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBNuclear Confrontation. If I'm right and Iran now possesses nuclear weapons, the war in the Middle East is about to get a lot bloodier. Hezbollah with Iranian forces will conduct a war of attrition against Israel's northern border. And if Israel believes it's in a war for its survival, it may use its nuclear bombs to protect itself. This is a war to the death. America will not sacrifice American lives especially if another truth is revealed: The Middle East is running out of its reserves of cr...
Iran's Nuclear Bombs
November 27, 2023 21:17 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBThe Israel/Hamas war is looking more like a regional war with muslim countries wanting to drive the Israelis out of the Middle East. In basic terms, it's a Law of Nature: Survival of the Fittest. Iran's acquisition of nuclear bombs means it will attempt to end America's influence in the Middle East. And if oil reserves are running out in that part of the world, no American leader would be willing to sacrifice American military lives to defend a 78 year old policy of control and distribution o...
Failed Verification
November 21, 2023 03:42 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBYou're wrong if you think this country is safe with a nuclear bomb arsenal. Weapons of mass destruction aren't only conceived and developed in this country and they don't have to be delivered by intercontinental ballistic missiles. No, a weapon the size of a refrigerator smuggled in this country means we're vulnerable. We spend billions if not trillions on our defense but we can never be safe. We opened the door to something that can't be stopped. They can't be verified when placed by an op...
Spelling "DA"
November 13, 2023 20:31 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBWe've sold weapons around the World making profits and one day that'll come back on us. We've become merchants of death. If you don't think the smallest nuclear bombs can be smuggled into this country, then you've never understood why a handful of fanatics with box cutters attacked this country on 9/11. We live in a violent country. We carry a historic badge of violence. No matter how we rationalize the dropping of nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki to end World War II, we could have don...
Unsuccessful Deterrence
November 06, 2023 19:38 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBBuilding a nuclear bomb isn't a deterrence. Instead, it doesn't create peace. The reason Hamas attacked Israel may have been because Iran now has obtained nuclear weapons. Building weapons of mass destruction don't promote peace and if you don't think the size of a refrigerator with a nuclear bomb can't be smuggled and stored in any city of America, then you're either naive or just plain stupid. Building nuclear weapons has opened the door to unimagined destruction. The war in the Middle Eas...
Ownership
October 31, 2023 04:57 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBWith the fall of the Ottoman Empire in 1918, Great Britain, France and Arab leaders created the countries of Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, and the recognition of a Jewish homeland in the Palestinian Region. America's president, Woodrow Wilson didn't join the League of Nations but declared a "Right of Self-Determination" in the formation of boundaries for new countries after World War I. The 1948 war founded the state of Israel. No one or no thing can own something forever. Creativity is the w...
Used-up Future
October 23, 2023 18:52 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBI don't instantaneously report the news. I attempt to predict where we're going. At present we have two wars with America's indirect involvement, the Middle East war and the European war in Ukraine. We're supplying weapons and strategic information for the prosecution of those two wars. Americans will never be told when their well being is threatened. We thought selling weapons around the world was protecting us, but it's not. There are consequences and one day they'll be at our shores. Our w...
The Tipping Point
October 16, 2023 19:04 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBThe coming months are to reveal the unexpected. We may have used up our future. The American people have been deceived into believing our U.S. Congress or the President are going to resolve the problems facing our country. No politician will vote to remove the Nations 33 trillion dollar debt. It would require closing government offices and reduce the authority they hold. Crimes have been committed against the America people and the Natural World. Even when the heating of the Oceans are unders...
Quid Pro Quo
October 09, 2023 18:35 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBIt's said we're a nation of laws, but more accurately, we're a nation of criminals. Political corruption is as old as the latin language. And in 2008 America had 4.2 % of the World's population but had 20% of the World's incarcerated population. If you encountered 100 people, one should have been incarcerated. Logically: One out of the 100 U.S. Senators should have been locked up. But with 33 trillion dollars in debt, the U.S. Congress and the President committed crimes against the American ...
Reordering
September 25, 2023 20:40 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBMany things result in a political and financial revolution and America isn't immune from that. Usually it's preceded by a collapse in the economy. With 33 trillion dollars of debt and political corruption the prospects of an American revolution are real. Every man, woman and child owe $92,000 and that's a crime against the American people. People sworn to protect our politicians may remove them by force, our military may rebel, and assassinations may be part of a revolution. The depletion of ...
Internet Gambling
September 19, 2023 00:18 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBOur politicians have legalized gambling on the Internet for sporting events. The reason is clear. It's to produce needed revenue for a bankrupt government. It'll cause millions of our youth addicted to compulsive gambling. And why not? We already have millions trapped by addiction from cocaine and heroin with the mentally ill living on the streets of every major city in this country. Don't let politicians tell you they're working for your best interests. MUSIC Johnny Pearson, Howard Shore...
The Coming Revolutions
September 12, 2023 06:03 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBThe Coming Revolutions. No human revolution can compare to Nature's Revolution. If we destroyed the balance in nature there won't be any escaping. No sin will have been greater. MUSIC Luciano Pavarotti, Marco Beltrami, Enrico Caruso
Our Criminal Presidents
September 04, 2023 18:04 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBBoth candidates from the Democratic and the Republican parties in the 2024 Presidential election may be convicted of crimes. But that doesn't concern me. No politician will ever tell the American people the government is bankrupt, that our military stationed around the world will have to come home, that our Consumerist Economy has permanently damaged the Natural World, that there will be uncontrollable inflation, or that the deceptions will continue. Our rule of law may say there's one rotten...
Our Heritage
August 28, 2023 20:05 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBPoliticians will never permit the American people to understand the Federal Government is bankrupt and they'll never allow them to know the Consumerist Economy has permanently affected the Natural World. In the future, for our own protection and that of other living things our Consumerist Economy may have to come to an end. The facts are we can't live without the Natural world and it may take a long time before the damage we created can be healed. We damaged the one thing that sustains life a...
Embedded Inflation
August 21, 2023 19:13 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBYou can't imagine inflation when our government puts an end to the Consumerist Economy...... and it may have to after damaging the Natural World. The evidence is overwhelming: Record heat across the globe has sparked wild fires in Greece, Spain, Morroco, Algeria, the United States, Canada and numerous other countries. You're wrong if you think the profits we make will protect us. We don't have a future without a balance in the Natural World. Our Consumerist Economy demands we get more. We've ...
Our Trajectory
August 14, 2023 18:11 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBOur Consumerist Economy demands we get more producing some very ugly behavior. Recently, teenagers in N.Y. city rioted when they were deprived of free video game consoles. In this World there are nearly a billion people who don't have access to clean water, a safe place to sleep, who lack enough to eat and we have teenagers deprived of video game consoles. Our demand to get more has damaged the Natural World and that will change the way we live. We thought we could live in an Artificial World...
Digital Age
August 07, 2023 23:29 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBDigital Age. In this Digital Age it's difficult determining what's real and what's not. Today the machines rule making our connection to the Natural World an unreality, a dream. In our future, when our government declares bankruptcy or even worse when the rest of the World declares our currency is worthless reality will take on a new dimension. Distrusted politicians will say everything is all right when millions of people are addicted to drugs and the mentally ill are living on the streets ...
Inflection Point
July 31, 2023 18:05 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBInflection Point. When President Biden says we're at an inflection point, it's not the point in history Biden's envisioned. Actually, it's been happening since 2010 when Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa entered into a financial alliance challenging the existing order that's been in place for 78 years since the end of World War II. But that doesn't account for what's been taking place domestically and going away soon: The daily violence, the 32 trillion governmental debt, the Cons...
The Course of Events
July 17, 2023 22:02 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBThe Course of Events. Revolutions take place from time to time and America may not be immune from that. Any number of things could cause people to gather together to over throw the corruptive practices of our politicians. This is a historically violent country and to prove it, there's no shortage of guns which no one can remove. Our politicians lack a sense of modesty. They're pompous and arrogant without humility or contrition for having driven the government into 32 trillion dollars of debt...
True Anger
July 06, 2023 02:39 - 28 minutes - 26.5 MBTrue Anger. In America it's difficult to calculate the real anger in a large number of people. The propagandists use polls to show the approval or disapproval of issues but never the percentage of people willing to commit violence toward the government. It's not enough to say distrust exists because what took place on January 6th wasn't just about the outcome of an election. No it was much deeper than that. Politician's jobs are at risk if armed rebellion starts across this country. Taking co...
Consuming
June 27, 2023 00:12 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBConsuming. Few of us understand what it takes to render an animal for our consumption. This country slaughters billion of animals each year and 30 to 40% end up as waste deposited as garbage in landfills. That's nearly criminal if not immoral. Killing animals is a big business. We not only have a dead beat government with 32 trillion dollars in debt, we have a wasteful society. In a grotesque move our U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved a company for the growing of chicken cells in...
Two Deaths
June 19, 2023 18:04 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBTwo Deaths. Ted Kaczynski recently died in prison. The other death was of someone I knew personally who was murdered. One was a convicted murderer of killing 3 people and injuring 23. The other was found shot dead inside a burning Mini Van. His death a homicide. Kaczynski was a child prodigy who ended a career in mathematics to become a killer calling attention to the real threat technology posed to nature. His methods were wrong but his predictions of the future were right. Murder is nothing...
Corrupted Capitalism
June 12, 2023 19:39 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBCorrupted Capitalism. Our politicians like to skip along bragging they're Capitalists plunging our government into 32 trillion dollars of debt. Capitalism is supposed to create wealth but for the last 50 years they've only created debt. They say we're rich cause every child born today owes $92,000. The music keeps going around and around living in the upside down world of corruption, violence, and greed. Don't worry about it cause nobody can stop us. We're rich cause we're in debt and 32 tril...
Our Future Bankruptcy
June 05, 2023 18:02 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBOur Future Bankruptcy. When the U.S. Federal Government declares bankruptcy you can count on our politicians saying it never happened. However, it's nearly guaranteed. But when the U.S. Federal Reserve texts every Smart phone saying every citizen was getting Crypto Currency deposited in their bank accounts, the Recession, or maybe the Depression, or maybe the Collapse was averted. The U.S. Government won't exist anymore but the military will be in the White House instituting Marshal Law. That...
Reparations or Gambling
May 29, 2023 23:11 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBReparations or Gambling. Our government is bankrupt in lots of different ways and it may take historians years to pass judgements on its moral failures. Reparation isn't going to happen because our government continues to borrow money it doesn't have, let alone paying the ancestors of slaves. Instead the government is creating addiction by on-line gambling on professional and amateur sporting events producing a highly corruptive form of taxation. It'll create slavery. Addiction is slavery: An...
CBDC Money
May 15, 2023 21:22 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBCBDC Money. Make no mistake about it, Central Bank Digital Currency is coming. In fact it's begun in parts of the World already. It's the result of a sovereign nation's financial failures. The use of a nations currency, or cash, is about to be replaced by a country's Central Bank issuing a new form of currency. Politicians or economists refuse to inform their country's population for fear of a panic, but it's beginning. America's Federal Government is bankrupt and eventually the Federal Reser...
Biden vs Trump
May 09, 2023 00:49 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBBiden vs Trump. The coming 2024 presidential election is shaping up to be a memorable event. You have Biden's son, Hunter, being accused of financially profiting because of his father's privileged position with fifty years in government. On the other side you have an expresident, businessman, media personality, Donald Trump, being indicted for alleged crimes. You have Biden, an enabler of the Washington swamp and the other promising to drain the swamp. One a machine politician, the other sup...
Woodrow Wilson
May 02, 2023 04:06 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBWoodrow Wilson. Wilson became the first southern President since the Civil War in 1912. He promised progressivism, but invaded Mexico, intervened in Cuba, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Honduras and militarily occupied Nicaragua during his entire presidency. He opposed women's rights to vote and advocated Jim Crow laws against blacks. In 1919 during his second term, he sufferred a paralyzing stroke and his wife secretly conducted the office of the presidency until 1921. Questioning: Who's running...
Internal Violence
April 25, 2023 00:33 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBInternal Violence. This country isn't what it was in 1968. Eliminating the guns won't stop the violence because we've become a dangerous people to ourselves and others. We aren't safer with a Constitutional Right to own a gun. The making and selling of weapons to hurt as many people as possible doesn't make us better. Removing all the guns will not work because what's troubling people won't disappear. If we're a free people, a prosperous people, a righteous people we don't need laws to protec...
The IRS
April 18, 2023 04:59 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBThe IRS. Compliance for paying your tax is done with the IRS. It's well known that a growing percentage of Americans don't pay their taxes and that's why the Inflation Reduction Act includes 80 billion dollars to hire 87,000 new IRS agents. But our government doesn't rely solely on tax collection to fund operations because our U.S. Treasury uses the Modern Monetary Theory to print as much money as it needs to keep things running. With growing distrust more people are paying less, replacing In...
515,000 mph
April 12, 2023 06:16 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MB515,000 mph. The Milky Way Galaxy which we're a part of, spins at 515,000 mph.....but we feel like we're standing still. And recently America didn't feel a thing when Russia, Saudi Arabia and several OPEC countries dropped the use of the Petro-Dollar as a means of purchasing crude oil world wide. The Petro-Dollar has lasted for 50 years and it nearly disappeared overnight without even being mentioned. The Chinese Yuan has taken it's place. You might ask yourself why our President spent his E...
Uncertain Future
April 04, 2023 00:00 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBUncertain Future. We don't have a Democracy in this country. We have a Corporatocracy. The business of America is business and money talks in the hallways of Washington's Capitol Building. That's how our leaders are elected. But that's the least of our problems. The U.S. dollar is being challenged by the BRICS Alliance. Within the last few weeks, Russia and Saudi Arabia have dropped the use of the Petro-Dollar. Xi Jinping and Putin have signed an agreement for a "New World Order". The Chine...
Treasury Bonds
March 27, 2023 21:16 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBTreasury Bonds. China holds nearly 1 trillion dollars in U.S. securities. Most of it was bought during the financial banking crisis that began in 2008. By 2011 they had bought 1.5 trillion dollars to stop the bleeding. That debt paid 2% interest when our total Federal debt was 14.9 trillion dollars. The stock market dropped with the Dow Jones Average in 2007 at 16,000 to 6,400 in 2009, Today our Federal debt is over 31 trillion dollars and the Dow Jones is about 32,000 with the Federal Reserv...
Magic Shows
March 20, 2023 18:25 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MBMagic Shows. Now you see it, now you don't. We're living in a fail-safe society. When banks are closed because of bad investments depositors are made whole, and bank officers go without consquences. Sam Bankman-Fried created a 22 billion crypto currency exchange with thousands of investors and it went bust. He was arrested and posted a 250 million dollar bail bond and remanded to live in his parents home in California. The deceptions continue as if they never happened. It's the biggest magic ...
23,000 Murders
March 13, 2023 20:36 - 29 minutes - 27.4 MB23,000 Murders. The truth is America is and has been a violent country and it looks like our future will be as well. Some would accuse me of being too subjective when describing our future and I admit I could be getting the facts all wrong. Recently a successful and influential lawyer was found guilty of murdering his wife and son. He also confessed to being an addict and stole millions from his clients. But that won't compare to what will happen when our trained soldiers return from fighting...
