🎥 The “Ceasefire” Israel Keeps Violating

Jeremy Scahill breaks down the Sharm el-Sheikh deal signed last October, which required Israel to withdraw in phases, allow reconstruction, and permit 600 aid trucks into Gaza daily.

Instead, while the Palestinian side “has overwhelmingly complied with every single aspect,” Israel “has violated every single aspect,” killing more than 1,250 Palestinians since the ceasefire began, more than the number of Israelis killed on October 7.

Bombshell new report out from my investigators this morning spanning our four year investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s financial records. 

This report shows exactly how Wall Street protected Epstein and enabled his sex trafficking for decades.

ELITE OVERPRODUCTION LEADS TO SOCIETAL COLLAPSE, PART II:

1. I’m honored that Cliff Asness would reply to me on social media. I’ve been a student of his work for many years, and it’s served me well throughout my career on global Wall Street.

2. With all due respect, sir @CliffordAsness, the purpose of my post(s) was NOT to fan the flames of the media’s manufactured war between Republicans and Democrats and the increasingly manufactured war between capitalists and socialists. Engaging in such thoughtless tribalism misses the purpose of my testimony entirely.

3. Recall that The Privileged Few thrive on triggering our tribal instincts. As long as we, The People, are fighting among ourselves about who is better equipped to fix our broken, K-shaped society, they can continue siphoning every marginal dollar of income and wealth from The Underprivileged Many via Dr. @Peter_Turchin’s “wealth pump” and the historic Cantillon effect created by historic fiscal and monetary largesse. Recall that our research has identified this historic Cantillon effect as the key driver of why those of us at the top of the “K” are enjoying inflation and why those at the bottom of the “K” are increasingly plotting ways to topple the system.

The real battle line isn’t Republican vs. Democrat, capitalism vs. socialism, black vs. white, straight vs. gay, young vs. old, etc., etc., etc. Again, these are all manufactured divisions that The Privileged Few use to divide us in ways that make us powerless to fight back against their hundreds of billions in campaign finance and the “reverse Robin Hood” effect that they’ve created from purchasing controlling stakes in Congress, the White House, and the Supreme (and lower) Court(s).

The only true battle line is good vs. evil. The PURPOSEFULLY broken fiscal policy, PURPOSEFULLY broken monetary policy, and PURPOSEFULLY broken regulatory policy contributing to the current K-shaped nature of our economy are evil.

Why are these core functions of government PURPOSEFULLY broken? So The Privileged Few can continue siphoning every marginal dollar of income and wealth from The Underprivileged Many. Period. They don’t care what happens to our society or children. They’ll simply dock their superyachts off the coast of faraway islands when all hell finally breaks loose in our country.

Again, only those in the bottom quartile of U.S. voter intelligence still believe this 55-year-old “reverse Robin Hood” experiment is going to end well.

The sooner we all stop engaging in low-level thinking and start seeing this disgusting game for what it is, the better off all our children will be. We CAN avoid Civil War II and the tragic loss of life that it would entail if we stop fighting among ourselves as risible Republicans, dumb Democrats, cocksure capitalists, and smug socialists.

If you learn one thing from me before they assassinate me like they assassinated everyone else who shared these “radical” beliefs, it’s to STOP ALLOWING YOURSELF—AND YOUR CHILDREN—TO FALL PREY TO THESE MANUFACTURED TRIBAL TRAPS. Redirect your ire to the root cause of the problem: greed. Preferably before it’s too late…

12 In the eighth year of the reign of the king of Babylon, he took Jehoiachin prisoner. 13 As the Lord had declared, Nebuchadnezzar removed the treasures from the temple of the Lord and from the royal palace, and cut up the gold articles that Solomon king of Israel had made for the temple of the Lord. 14 He carried all of Jerusalem into exile: all the officers and fighting men, and all the skilled workers and artisans—a total of ten thousand. Only the poorest people of the land were left.

I'm so tired of this ridiculous theater. Iran isn't going to agree to 'control' inbound traffic when most of the power and value rests with the outbound traffic. Bessent speaks of a possible agreement to resurrect discussions on the agreement that may lead to an agreement.

The man on the left was arrested and convicted for illegally selling rockets to Iran during the Reagan administration.

The man on the right is a "military analyst" for Fox News who believes that Iran should not have rockets.

It's the same person. 😉

ELITE OVERPRODUCTION LEADS TO SOCIETAL COLLAPSE: The irony of @chamath and @DavidSacks explicitly calling out Anthropic’s regulatory capture scheme is that they refuse to acknowledge that all three branches of U.S. government have been captured by wealthy elites—including themselves—to advance their interests AT THE EXPENSE OF ordinary American families.

This infighting among elites is the guaranteed byproduct of what Dr. @Peter_Turchin and his colleagues at the Complexity Science Hub call “elite overproduction.” Their database spans hundreds of civilizations across millennia.

What did their studies conclude? Elite overproduction ✅ + mass immiseration ✅ = failed societies that overwhelmingly end in violent collapse.

The U.S.’s countdown-to-collapse clock is ticking. Only the uneducated and elites benefitting from the “wealth pump” disagree with this factual statement.

Refer to my tweets from this past weekend for more details.

I love you and Jesus Christ loves you too.

What a nightmare. By implementing the tariffs illegally, and now having to unwind them, the Trump administration created over $100 billion of profit for corporations selling foreign products, at the expense of American consumers.

Your refund: $0.00
Apple’s profit: $2.2 billion

The Trump Administration is sending billions to Amazon, Apple, Walmart, and other big corporations to refund them for Trump’s tariffs.

American households were estimated to lose over $1,000 to tariff price hikes.

Here's an idea: refund working families before big business.
