June 6, 2026 | The CIA Gold Story: Friends and AIs Weigh In
In May, David Rush, a former senior CIA official with top-secret clearance, was arrested after the FBI caught him with gold bars worth more than $40 million. The gold was allegedly obtained from the CIA between November 2025 and March 2026 under the guise of “work-related expenses.” Two friends of mine — one a former military […]

June 5, 2026 | The War Is Expanding Whether They Admit It or Not
Zelensky is now warning that Russian intelligence preparations point toward a “massive new strike” against Ukraine.

June 5, 2026 | The Strait of Hormuz Closure Will Become a Crisis
Main Street and Wall Street are ignoring the Strait of Hormuz oil crisis. That complacency has a poor historical track record. According to the IEA’s oil market report of May 13, roughly 12.8 million barrels per day are missing from global supply, with Gulf countries shipping about 14.4 million barrels per day less than before […]
June 4, 2026 | Why Turkey Matters More Than People Realize
I have repeatedly warned that people need to watch Turkey. Most analysts view Turkey as simply another emerging market struggling with inflation, currency volatility, and political uncertainty. They are missing the larger picture. Turkey sits at the crossroads of Europe, Russia, the Middle East, and Asia. When capital shifts, when energy flows change, when […]
June 4, 2026 | The Energy Crunch Is Starting To Bite
Gas is more expensive since the Strait of Hormuz closed. But life goes on. People are still driving, and oil prices, while up, are not spiking as they did in past energy crises. One might be tempted to call this latest disruption a non-event. But one would be wrong. The impact on the broader economy has […]
June 4, 2026 | Bamboozled Once Again
“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a […]
June 3, 2026 | Sovereignty for Sale in Ireland – UK’s Starmer Hates White People
The European Union has now reached the point where it openly tells nations how many migrants they should accept and what they must pay if they refuse. They no longer even pretend that member states are sovereign countries. Ireland, a nation that fought for centuries to determine its own destiny, is now […]
June 2, 2026 | The Fed’s Real Stress Test
Jerome Powell is now warning that the Federal Reserve is undergoing a “stress test” and that political interference threatens public confidence in the institution.

May 31, 2026 | The Future Arrives Unevenly
In 1712, an ironmonger named Thomas Newcomen built a machine in Dudley, England that changed the world. Not immediately. Not obviously. The Newcomen engine was crude, inefficient, and mostly used to pump water out of coal mines. Nobody standing next to it would have recognized they were watching the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. They […]
May 31, 2026 | The Real Reason Russia Would Invade Europe
The press keeps insisting Russia is preparing to invade all of Europe as if Putin wakes up every morning dreaming about inheriting Germany’s industrial collapse and France’s pension protests. The propaganda has become so absurd that perhaps we should finally discuss the REAL reasons Russia would supposedly invade Europe: To acquire Germany’s energy policy […]

May 29, 2026 | Medical Kidnapping Legal in Canada – Biophysicist Silenced for Dissent
The Nicholas Wagter case has exploded online because many people believe it represents something far more dangerous than one isolated mental health dispute. According to widespread claims circulating online, Wagter, a widely published doctor in biophysics, was forcibly detained under Canada’s psychiatric intervention laws after becoming increasingly vocal about financial systems, patent disputes, institutional […]
May 28, 2026 | From the Archives: People We Should Know: Rep. Thomas Massie
Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie poked the deep state dragon one too many times. And a couple of weeks ago, he was “primaried” in (thanks to a tsunami of out-of-state money), the most expensive Congressional campaign ever. Libertarians are mourning his loss and hoping he runs for president in 2028. Here’s a post from 2024 that explains why: […]
May 28, 2026 | Beware The Risk-Sellers
The financial sector profits most when people buy into inflation fears and the riskiest asset classes. It is important for those of us with capital to understand why the relentless risk-sales pitch is generally contrary to our best interests. Especially when we are at or within a decade of retirement. As we explain in our […]
May 28, 2026 | Swiss Bank Accounts are DEAD – The New Banking Hub
For decades, Switzerland sold one thing better than perhaps any country on earth: privacy. That became its true export. People think of watches, chocolate, pharmaceuticals, or skiing resorts, but Switzerland’s real business was protecting capital from governments. That was the foundation of modern offshore banking. Switzerland has destroyed the very industry that made it […]
May 27, 2026 | Even Therapists Have Become a Data Mine
There was a time when people could still speak privately. You could sit across from a therapist, talk about your marriage falling apart, your depression, your fears, your finances, or the darkest moments of your life believing those conversations would remain between two human beings. That world is dying rapidly because everything now must be […]
May 26, 2026 | Truth about ‘Investing’
The segment below offers some real talk about the madness that passed as investing savvy in Canadian real estate over the last decade. Until the ‘easy money’ tide goes out, most have no idea how ill-advised and self-destructive their behaviours are. Revelations tend to spread as prices drop and losses compound. The Shocking Contrast between […]
May 26, 2026 | Ukraine Could Be Granted Associate EU Membership
The same European Union that cannot control its own borders, cannot stop economic contraction, cannot keep factories from fleeing, cannot keep farmers from revolting, and cannot even keep the lights on without deindustrializing itself is now discussing some absurd “associate membership” for Ukraine while the country is still actively at war. This is what […]
May 26, 2026 | The AI Revolution: Where Capitalism Meets Socialism
from Scheerpost Part 1 of this “Abundance Paradigm” series discussed predictions that artificial intelligence and robotics will in the relatively near future produce an economy of extraordinary abundance – one in which most labor is automated.
