About American exceptionalism

How ‘the mother of all bubbles’ will pop

But every hero has a fatal flaw. America’s is its sharply increasing addiction to government debt. My calculations suggest it now takes nearly $2 of new government debt to generate an additional $1 of US GDP growth — a 50 per cent increase on just five years ago. If any other country were spending this way, investors would be fleeing, but for now, they think America can get away with anything, as the world’s leading economy and issuer of the reserve currency.

US Government Shut Down. Let's cease to pay salaries and benefits for all members of the Supreme Court and all Federal Judges. They can volunteer their services. Most of them are destroying America.
- Let's cease to pay salaries and benefits to the President and Vice President, and the heads of department they select. They can also volunteer their services. They're wealthy, millionaires, and billionaires with expensive estates.

- Let's cease to pay the salaries and benefits for members of the Senate, Congress and the House of Representatives. They can volunteer their services to America. Most all of them are millionaires and greedy pigs who continue to enrich themselves while they're in office.
When Trump takes office, it will be worse. Billionaires, millionaires, and all of them will be enriching themselves while harming poor Americans, and others. They should serve in their positions as volunteers. Like other government employees, they will be using their positions in the US government to get everything they can.
Pay salaries and benefits for ESSENTIAL GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES.
Example: Musk, the richest man in the world, should not receive a salary and paid benefits. He's especially obnoxious. His position will be to destroy the lives and jobs of government employees. essential department, and programs.

Laat night Israeli warplanes targeted Hodeidah port, Ras Issa oil facility, and two power plants in Sanaa in multiple massive bombing raids using US provided bombs to punish the last remaining country trying to prevent them from murdering Palestinians.

As always Israel, unable (or unvwilling) to target any military sites, it bombed infrastructure of Yemen, making the life of the improvishehd citizens even harder.

The 2 power stations provided majority of the power for the Yemenie capital and destruction of them will have horrible consequences for the most volunarable in the country.

#US and àUK, together with #Germany, #France, #Qatar, #UAE and now even #Turkey are working alongside of Israel to prevent Yemen disrupting the Israelis god given right to commit #genocide and exterminate and #starve millions of Palestinians.

In the mean time, most of the world leaders and almost entire "Muslim" world is so rt ng idle and complicitly suppressing the voice of those who call for an end of this outrageous crimes against humanity.

A Manifesto Against For-Profit Health Insurance Companies — by Michael Moore

I hereby give you my Oscar-nominated Documentary on the Killer Health Insurance companies like United HealthCare —SICKO — for FREE… and let’s end and replace this so-called “health care system” NOW. (...)

(Text continues underneath the photo.)

Here’s a sad statistic for you: In the United States, we have a whopping 1.4 million people employed with the job of DENYING HEALTH CARE, vs only 1 million doctors in the entire country! That’s all you need to know about America. We pay more people to deny care than to give it. 1 million doctors to give care, 1.4 million brutes in cubicles doing their best to stop doctors from giving that care. If the purpose of “health care” is to keep people alive, then what is the purpose of DENYING PEOPLE HEALTH CARE? Other than to kill them? I definitely condemn that kind of murder. And in fact, I already did. In 2007, I made a film – SICKO – about America’s bloodthirsty, profit-driven and murderous health insurance system. It was nominated for an Oscar. It’s the second-largest grossing film of my career (after Fahrenheit 9/11). And over the past 15 years, millions upon millions of people have watched it including, apparently, Luigi Mangione. (...)

" #NeilOliver speaks with Colonel Douglas Macgregor about rising global tensions and the Deep State’s oil agenda. From the Middle East to Eastern #Europe, are #US and #UK policies pushing the world toward #global #conflict? With rivals like #Russia, #Iran, and #China uniting, could this spark a larger war?"

Colonel Macgregor referred to the #DeepState as being a coalition of prominent lobbies, congressmen and senators, putting together a plan which was clearly hatched in the 90s. He specifically mentioned Richard Perle, Paul Wolfowitz, Dov Zakheim. #who said if they could capture and #control the #oilfields in the Middle East then #China becomes hostage (to the oil, gas etc) and #Israel benefits enormously.

its all about the money honey !

Documents show Biden's State Department deliberately left Gonzalo Lira to die in a Ukrainian prison..‼️

#GonzaloLira, whose videos some of us watched, became a political prisoner who was #tortured to #death with the #support of the #US #government's Deep State. This was simply because he gave #information that was not in line with government #propaganda.

An American of Chilean descent (born in the US to Chilean parents), he knew in advance how he would end up. He even drew attention to a number of other political prisoners who had been killed by the Zelensky regime, and mentioned that if he did not report by a certain time, his fate would follow theirs...

On 11 January 2024, conservative American YouTuber Gonzalo Lira died in a Ukrainian prison. He was held there for the crime of #criticizing the #war and the American and Ukrainian governments.

A Freedom of Information Act request by Judicial Watch now shines a harsh light on the Biden regime's unwillingness to stand up for an American political prisoner in a Ukrainian jail.

The emails reveal that the US embassy was aware of the threat to Gonzalo Lira's life, but made no effort to help him.

After Gonzalo Lira's death, the embassy was primarily concerned with controlling misrepresentations and how to "strengthen press guidelines," to deal with the question "why didn't the U.S. government do more to help Mr. Lira?"

On July 6, he was released on bail and attempted to leave the country for Hungary on his motorcycle, posting a video along the way. On 1 August he was arrested again and imprisoned in a solitary confinement cell (SIZO) in Kharkiv.

In his videos, he has often criticized the mainstream media, the Ukrainian and American governments, specifically former Assistant Secretary of State for Political Affairs (2021-2024) Victoria Nuland.

Gateway Pundit filed a Freedom of Information Act request on January 15, 2024, four days after his death, for all communications regarding Gonzalo Lira's death between Victoria Nuland and U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget A. Brink.

Eleven months later, the State Department is delaying that request and recently wrote that the request will not be completed until March 31, 2026.

The architect of Ukrainian politics, Nuland was widely considered a contender for the top post until the Lira affair broke. In September, Nuland joined the board of the Deep State front organization National Endowment for Democracy.

Meanwhile, Judicial Watch has filed a more general Freedom of Information Act request regarding the Gonzalo Lira case that does not specifically focus on communications between Nuland and Ambassador Brink.

The State Department released 769 heavily redacted pages to Judicial Watch in May, October, and November 2024.

Gateway Pundit received these documents from Judicial Watch and can exclusively report on the State Department's egregious failure to save Gonzalo Lira's life and subsequent attempts to misrepresent it.

The documents show that the US Embassy learned of Gonzalo Lira's arrest on 11 May via mail from the Ukrainian SBU secret police on 2 May.

"He is formally charged with violating Article 436-2 of the (Ukrainian) Criminal Code section "Justification, recognition as legitimate, denial of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, glorification of its participants."

In November 2024, Ukrainian opposition lawmaker Oleksandr Dubinsky claimed to have irrefutable evidence that Gonzalo Lira was murdered by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), TASS news agency reported.

"We have received irrefutable proof that US citizen and blogger Gonzalo Lira was tortured in a Kharkiv detention facility. He was beaten in the same way as I was in the Kiev detention facility - he was taken to a cell where they extorted money from him, in a very bad condition. When he made it public, he was killed," Dubinsky said on his Telegram channel.

Francesca Albanese on the failure of the UN system to stop Israel's genocide:

"Many states are not stopping Israel because of political convenience, ignorance, & racism.

"Our govts are violating international law the moment they do not use their influence to stop the genocide.

"The responsibility is upon us as ordinary citizens to hold our govts accountable. Justice for Palestine starts at home."

oh dear: Florida woman arrested after saying ‘Delay, Deny, Depose’ to health insurer – report

A 42-year-old Florida woman, Briana Boston, was arrested after allegedly threatening a health insurance worker using the phrase found on bullets at UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson's murder scene, the Independent wrote.

Boston reportedly said, "Delay, deny, depose. You people are next," during a call about a denied claim. Because of the recent fatal shooting of Thomspon, the employee perceived the words as a threat and called FBI officialsка.

She was arrested and charged with threats to conduct a mass shooting or an act of terrorism. Her bond was set at $100,000, according to local media.
