This week on New World Next Week: The Washington Post is dying; the EPA is repealing the CO2 endangerment finding; and Ring can track your grandma…and your pet…and you!
It’s the first weekend of October so I’m opening up the November Open Thread for members to discuss the latest news and happenings from around the world, or just to share personal anecdotes or talk about life, music, the world and everything.
This week on the New World Next Week: the Hannibal directive haunts October 7 survivors as testimony reveals Israel killed its own citizens; the phoney climate emergency is called a global health emergency to form a very real global government; and the J&J baby powder cancer trial continues.
Do you feel helpless? Powerless? Unable to achieve your goals? Is that because you are a weak, powerless, helpless good-for-nothing? Or because you have become stuck in a narrative frame that tells you that you are weak, powerless and helpless? And, if the latter, how do you rewire your cognitive circuitry to break you out of that habit of thinking?

via TRUTH OVER COMFORT: In todays video, I spoke with James Corbett, about Blackrock, Vanguard, State Street, Financial Giants & The Oligopoly. The “big three” asset management corporations own shares in almost every major US company in each industry, making them the top institutional shareholders for these giant corporations.

We also discuss the general trend of consolidation. Feel free to use Yahoo Finance, type in a company and go to holders to see the top shareholders.

Or, more charitably, “Given the conspiracy reality, how do I invest for my retirement?” That’s a better question, but still, it depends on what we mean by investment, and what it is we’re looking to achieve in the long run. No, I’m not an investment advisor and won’t give you the latest hot stock tip, but I do have some things to say about this topic.

Readers will recall that last week's edition of this column ended on something of an intellectual puzzler. To wit: If the Tiananmen Square Massacre narrative that is routinely used to demonize the Chinese government on the world stage is demonstrably wrong (even by...
This past week marked the 30th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre in Beijing. Naturally, Trump's warmongering Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, jumped at the opportunity to wag his finger at the Chinese government. In "On the 30th Anniversary of Tiananmen...
The US-China trade war continues to simmer, with Uncle Sam once again talking tough and China, for its part, producing propaganda video after propaganda video promising that hellfire will descend on Washington unless America backs off. Oh, and there's Beijing's whole...
. . . After the initial surge of hype that surrounds any new technology, the dark reality of the 5G-connected "Internet of Things" (IoT) is starting to come to light. The most immediately apparent aspect of this dark reality is the danger to human health that the 5G...
