This post has to do with propaganda.  Yes, I said propaganda, which has replaced the mainstream news. 
People need to be aware, if they are not already, that the convenience of the 24 hour news cycle has been co-opted for years by interests that do not hold your welfare and prosperity as a high priority but now more than ever it is BLATANTLY peddling garbage of a titanic order of magnitude which is believable to the hypnotized, the uninformed, and particularly people who are too busy in their daily lives to fact check what's being broadcast widely. 
You may have negative opinions of Alex Jones.  You may have difficulty processing his message due to his delivery style and slant but please trust me when tell you if you read nothing else of his you need to hear this clip.  In it he will list examples which make it easy to see what is going on behind the news stories.  Please distribute widely.  It is critical that the general public understands what they are being fed on a daily basis is the reality you are expected to believe so that you dutifully comply with a program designed to strip you of your will and your rights, and without your intervention this WILL in fact occur rapidly this year.

If there was ever any doubt the mainstream news is for "ENTERTAINMENT ONLY" here's your proof:

The Boston Globe has been busted making special anti-Trump editions with front page stories twisted into anti Trump propaganda which are selectively distributed.
Now, if I was a paying Boston Globe subscriber I would expect to get ALL the papers. Wheres a consumer protection lawyer when you need one?
 
Just a random sidebar here but I was looking at a picture of Minnie Driver recently and I thought to myself; "this woman looks remarkably like a pitbull terrier" 
Is it just me?
 
Also if you are unaware of what's really happening in the South China Sea you should probably read up on that because it looks like a scene from Game of Thrones just before the season finale.  And if you are a fan you know how that show likes to decapitate your favorite characters. Someone should really suggest to Obama a nice vacation in Da Nang.

Here we go folks... Hang on tight.

Michael Snyder | Economic Collapse - April 11, 2016
Mainstream news outlets are already starting to use the phrase “economic collapse” to describe what is going on in some areas of our world right now.

For many Americans this may seem a bit strange, but the truth is that the worldwide economic slowdown that began during the second half of last year is starting to get a lot worse.  In this article, we are going to examine evidence of this from South America, Europe, Asia and North America.  Once we are done, it should be obvious that there is absolutely no reason to be optimistic about the direction of the global economy right now.  The warnings of so many prominent experts are now becoming a reality, and what we have witnessed so far are just the early chapters of a crushing economic crisis that will affect every man, woman and child in the entire world.

Let’s start with Brazil.  It has the 7th largest economy on the entire planet, and it is already enduring its worst recession in 25 years.  In fact, at the end of last year Goldman Sachs said that what was going on down there was actually a “depression“.

But now the crisis in Brazil has escalated significantly.

I want to share with you an excerpt from a recent article entitled “Brazil: Economic collapse worse than feared“.  I know, that title sounds like it comes directly fromThe Economic Collapse Blog, but I didn’t write it.

It actually comes from CNN…

Amid political chaos, Brazil’s economic collapse is worse than its government once believed.

In the midst of rising calls to impeach President Dilma Rousseff, Brazil’s central bank announced Thursday that it now expects the country’s economy to shrink 3.5% this year.

That’s worse than the central bank’s previous estimate for a 1.9% contraction. The darker forecast matches what the International Monetary Fund projected for Brazil — Latin America’s largest country — and what many independent economists have suspected.

It is one thing for Michael Snyder to tell you that Brazil is in the midst of “economic collapse”, but it is another thing entirely for CNN to say it.

And of course I have been warning about the crisis down in Brazil for quite some time now.  For much more on this, please see my previous article entitled “The Economic Collapse Of South America Is Well Underway“.

Meanwhile, things are actually much worse in Venezuela than they are in Brazil.  Food and basic supplies are in short supply, the inflation rate has hit 720 percent, and crime is completely out of control.

The following is from an article in the Independent entitled “Venezuela is on the brink of complete economic collapse“…

The only question now is whether Venezuela’s government or economy will completely collapse first.

The key word there is “completely.” Both are well into their death throes. Indeed, Venezuela’s ruling party just lost congressional elections that gave the opposition a veto-proof majority, and it’s hard to see that getting any better for them any time soon — or ever.
Incumbents, after all, don’t tend to do too well when, according to the International Monetary Fund, their economy shrinks 10 percent one year, an additional 6 percent the next, and inflation explodes to 720 percent. It’s no wonder, then, that markets expect Venezuela to default on its debt in the very near future. The country is basically bankrupt.
Once again we see a very respected mainstream publication using the phrase “economic collapse” to describe what is happening in South America.
You can find some stunning video of the “economic Armageddon” that is taking place in Venezuela right here.  I would encourage you to watch that video, because what is happening down there will eventually be happening here.
Meanwhile, over in Europe the collapse of the Italian banking system has entered a disturbing new chapter.  Italy’s finance minister has called a meeting in Rome for Monday that will be focusing on a “last resort” bailout plan for the troubled banks…

Finance minister Pier Carlo Padoan has called a meeting in Rome on Monday with executives from Italy’s largest financial institutions to agree final details of a “last resort” bailout plan.

Yet on the eve of that gathering, concerns remain as to whether the plan will be sufficient to ringfence the weakest of Italy’s large banks, Monte dei Paschi di Siena, from contagion, according to people involved in the talks.

Italian bank shares have lost almost half their value so far this year amid investor worries over a €360bn pile of non-performing loans — equivalent to about a fifth of GDP. Lenders’ profitability has been hit by a crippling three-year recession.

As Italy descends into financial chaos, the rest of the continent better be paying attention.
Do you remember how hard it was for the rest of Europe to rescue Greece?
Well, Greece has the 44th largest economy on the planet.
Italy has the 8th.
It would be hard to overstate the seriousness of what is going on over in Europe, and it is not just Italy we are talking about.  All over the continent major banks are in deep trouble, and the chairman of France’s second largest  retail bank recently told reporters that “I am much more worried than I was in 2009“.

And there is very good reason for concern.  On Sunday, we learned that a major “bail-in” had just been announced for one of Austria’s most prominent banks.  The following comes from Zero Hedge…

And then today, following a decision by the Austrian Banking Regulator, the Finanzmarktaufsicht or Financial Market Authority,Austria officially became the first European country to use a new law under the framework imposed by Bank the European Recovery and Resolution Directive to share losses of a failed bank with senior creditors as it slashed the value of debt owed by Heta Asset Resolution AG.
The highlights from the announcement:
Today, the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA) in its function as the resolution authority pursuant to the Bank Recovery and Resolution Act (BaSAG – Bundesgesetz über die Sanierung und Abwicklung von Banken) has issued the key features for the further steps for the resolution of HETA ASSET RESOLUTION AG. The most significant measures are:

• a 100% bail-in for all subordinated liabilities,
• a 53.98% bail-in, resulting in a 46.02% quota, for all eligible preferential liabilities,
• the cancellation of all interest payments from 01.03.2015, when HETA was placed into resolution pursuant to BaSAG,
• as well as a harmonisation of the maturities of all eligible liabilities to 31.12.2023.

According to the current resolution plan for HETA, the wind-down process should be concluded by 2020, although the repayment of all claims as well as the legally binding conclusion of all currently outstanding legal disputes will realistically only be concluded by the end of 2023. Only at that point will it be possible to finally distribute the assets and to liquidate the company.
The dominoes are starting to fall in Europe, and I would expect even bigger announcements in the weeks and months to come.

Over in Asia, economic chaos is beginning to prevail as well.
In China, the stock market is already down more than 40 percent from the peak, Chinese exports were down 25.4 percent on a year over year basis in February, and Chinese economic numbers overall have not been this poor since the depths of the last global recession.


At the same time, the Japanese economy is really struggling right now.  As I wrote about the other day, Japanese GDP has shrunk for two out of the last three quarters, we just saw Japanese industrial production experience the biggest one month decline that we have witnessed since the tsunami of 2011, and business sentiment has fallen to a three year low.  The Nikkei has dropped by about 5,000 points from where it was last summer, and some analysts believe that Japanese markets “are being destroyed” due to massive intervention by the Bank of Japan.

Here in the United States, we haven’t been hit quite as hard as the rest of the world just yet, but there are lots of very disturbing warning signs all around us.

At the end of last week, we learned that it is being projected that U.S. GDP will have grown by just 0.1 or 0.2 percent during the first quarter of 2016.  And on Monday corporate earnings reporting season begins, and it is expected to be a very, very bad one.  The following comes from Business Insider…
We are about to get confirmation that earnings growth for America’s biggest companies was negative in the first quarter, compared to the same period a year ago.
When aluminum giant Alcoa releases its results on Monday, it will mark the unofficial start of the heaviest reporting season for S&P 500 companies.

The final scoreboard is expected to show a 9.1% earnings drop for the quarter, according to FactSet senior earnings analyst John Butters.
If these projections turn out to be accurate, it will be the fourth quarter in a row of earnings declines.  This is something that we never see outside of a recession.
And for a whole bunch more numbers which indicate that the U.S. economy is in very serious trouble, please see my previous article entitled “19 Facts That Prove Things In America Are Worse Than They Were Six Months Ago“.
Of course I am just another voice in the crowd when it comes to predicting that the U.S. economy is headed for rough times.  For example, just check out what Societe Generale economist Albert Edwards is saying…
A tidal wave is coming to the US economy, according to Albert Edwards, and when it crashes it’s going to throw the economy into recession.

…the profit recession facing American corporations is going to lead to a collapse in corporate credit.
“Despite risk assets enjoying a few weeks in the sun our fail-safe recession indicator has stopped flashing amber and turned to red”
…
He continued:
Whole economy profits never normally fall this deeply without a recession unfolding. And with the US corporate sector up to its eyes in debt, the one asset class to be avoided — even more so than the ridiculously overvalued equity market — is US corporate debt. The economy will surely be swept away by a tidal wave of corporate default.

As you can see, it isn’t just one nation or one region of the world that we need to be concerned about.
Economic chaos is erupting literally all over the planet, and global leaders are starting to panic.

Unfortunately, they have had seven years to try to fix things since the last global recession, and they didn’t get the job done.  Anyone that believes that by some miracle they will be able to pull us out of the fire this time and that everything will somehow be okay is simply engaged in wishful thinking.

People are getting wise.  Nice to see.

Ok, so let's put a few things together people. All this has been ANNOUNCED IN THE NEWS.
Your News, My news, this is not just AJ on a tirade, these are facts.

1. Colorado just GAVE all its delegates to Cruz. Caucus Cancelled. No PRIMARY.
   
2. Texas voted Trump in a big way and delegates voted opposite the people.
3. Same thing in Louisiana.
4. We have seen election fraud in California (Running out of Republican ballots)
   
5. Vote switching and tampering in Florida (People vote Trump and voting machine summary swaps a straight opposition ticket)
   
6. Similar problems in AZ and Ohio with the addition of protest groups intimidating voters.
   
7. And now we have Colorado simply forgoing all that nonsense and just HANDING THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES TO CRUZ! Why campaign? Why vote?
   

Did you shake your head when Saddam got 98% of the votes in Iraq?  What did you assume that was?
Maybe you prefer Bernie Sanders?  Let's be fair right? What if this was happening to Bernie Sanders eh?  Would you be pissed off then? 
Guess what?  IT DID!
Rigged race means Hillary takes more delegates in Bernie's Wyoming win

New York Post‎ - 2 days ago

Bernie Sanders won again Saturday — and still lost.

So maybe you don't follow politics, maybe you think things will be whatever they are going to be and you can't do anything about it.  Well, you are correct about that IF YOU JUST SIT ON YOUR ASS WITH A DOMINOE'S PIZZA AND WATCH THIS SHIT!

Look, you can do that if you want to.  The reason I take the time to distribute these emails to whoever will read them is me protesting this.  If you don’t have the time or inclination to do the same thing just forward mine around because I am not going to stop.  Most of us are not old enough to have ever seen it first hand so we slough it off as unimportant but THIS IS TYRANNY!  And you better say something about it or you are part of the problem and little more than a slave.

Sounds like the RNC has a dark horse candidate after all eh? 
What's next?  Spicy baby sausage chalupas?
 
New York Post
Published on Apr 6, 2016
Back in August of 2015, ISIS destroyed a majority of a mixture of Roman, Persian, and Mesopotamian ruins in the City of Palmyra, Syria. After Syrian forces drove ISIS out of the area they discovered mass graves of mostly women and children as the Independent reported in May of 2015.

At least 400 Syrians were brutally tortured, beheaded, and mutilated in Palmyra.

Now as a supposed act of defiance, The Institute of Digital Archaeology, Harvard University, and UNESCO are erecting 43 foot tall 23 foot wide Arches of the Temple of Baal in New York’s Times Square and London’s Trafalgar Square.  And the date to unveil the arches falls directly on the celebration of the all important pagan holiday Beltane and anniversary of the massacre of The Branch Davidians at WACO and The Oklahoma City Bombing, April 19.

Michael Snyder of End of The American Dream Writes "But these are not the only two giant arches that are going to be made. That same article from the New York Post says that the Institute for Digital Archaeology ultimately hopes to put 1,000 of these arches in cities all over the globe…Michael Snyder continues "If you are anything like me, this is an extremely disturbing development. Baal worship is definitely not something that we should be celebrating as a society.”

Michael Snyder continues” the name of the city of Babylon is believed to have originally come from an Akkadian word that meant “Gate of God” or “Gateway of the God”…So could it be possible that we are laying out a couple of giant welcome mats for this ancient pagan deity by erecting these giant arches in New York and London ?” Could we be opening up gateways and portals that are extremely dangerous and that we simply do not understand?

Baal worship involves human sacrifice, public bisexual orgies, and the offerings of the children produced from these orgies to the ancient Babylonian God Baal or Bel which means “ lord", which is actually a catch all phrase for a host of deities that sprang from Mesopotamian Mythology. And if you think those things all happened in the past, sadly you are mistaken. Another offshoot of Baal is that of the God Marduk who can be traced back to the Sumerian King Nimrod. And Nimrod is the seed that branches out into a host of occult deities. One of those being the God Moloch. The very one worshiped by World Leaders at Bohemian Grove.
 
Enough Already!

Ok, this month I have a treat for you and this time it's going to be me putting my ass out there credibility-wise to prove these periodic nasty events that make you feel so "un-safe" are engineered to coincide with the Pagan ritual calendar.  If I am correct rest assured I am not a psychic reading a bag of tea-leaves.  I am just aware of things the rest of you laugh at me for mentioning.
 
April 19th is the conclusion of a really fun week for Luciferian fanatics which include most of the people in charge of things in your daily life so in keeping with the popular tradition of Pagan blood sacrifice of humans you can expect to see something horrific occur between April 14th and April 19th.  Sound crazy?  No, I am not going to be behind it pulling strings but someone you probably voted for also voted for some of these notable sacrifices which occurred during this time:
 
April 14, 1865 – President Abraham Lincoln is fatally shot while attending a play at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D.C.. He dies one day later. 
 
April 15, 1912 – The RMS Titanic finally sinks after hitting an iceberg the night before. As many as 1,635 passengers and crew members are killed.
 
April 16, 1947 – The SS Grandcamp explodes at 9:12 a.m. in Texas City, Texas, killing more than 575 people.
 
April 17, 1961 – The Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba by a CIA-sponsored military group is launched. Three days later, the invaders are defeated. Casualties include 118 deaths, 360 wounded and 1,202 captured.
 
April 18, 1983 – Sixty-three people are killed, including 17 Americans, when a suicide bomber in Lebanon drives a van filled with explosives into the American embassy.
 
April 19, 1989 – A 16-inch turret on a Navy battleship stationed off Puerto Rico unexpectedly explodes, killing 47 seamen in the ship's gun room and wounding the ship.
 
April 19, 1993 – Four federal agents and six members of the Branch Davidian religious group were killed Feb. 28, 1993 when the ATF attempted to raid a sect compound outside of Waco, Texas. After a 51-day standoff, the government led a final assault on the compound resulting in 76 deaths
 
April 14, 1994 – Two military Black Hawk helicopters (not pictured) are shot down over the streets of Ebil, Iraq. Twenty-six people on board are killed, including military and civilians.
 
April 19, 1995 – More than 160 people were killed and almost 700 more injured when domestic terrorists set off a bomb in the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. More than 320 buildings nearby also suffered some damage.
 
April 20, 1999 – Two students enter Columbine High School in a Denver suburb and open fire, killing 12 students, a coach and then themselves.
 
April 16, 2007 – A gunman kills 32 people then himself on the campus of Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Va. Another 23 are injured.
 
April 20, 2010 – A wellhead blowout on a BP-operated oil platform kills 11 and dumps 210 million gallons of oil into the Gulf of Mexico.
 
April 17, 2013 – Fifteen people are killed and more than 160 are injured following an ammonium nitrate explosion at a fertilizer plant in West, Texas
 
April 15, 2013 – Three people are killed when two pressure cooker bombs go off in a terrorist attack during the Boston Marathon.

OMFG… WHY?!?

You see, this is the attitude that gives them away and I hope you all can see this.  All these unpopular politicians are going to pander any way they can to lull everyone to sleep while the economic bubble they created expands to a breaking point because after the crash that’s coming, and it is coming, all these fiat currencies, especially the dollar will have no value whatsoever so it doesn't matter what anything is going to cost because there's no way in hell you are getting any of these entitlements anyway.
 
Buy some gold.  If you can't buy gold, buy silver and don't lease it.  If it's not in your hand it's digital wealth and one thing I assure you Putin is doing right now (I have seen the reports on this) he is investing a lot of resources into hacking the world's financial system and I guarantee you he is by now probably able to erase digital wealth with a software he has and he's doing this to thwart the banking cartels efforts to finance the conflicts that annoy him.
 
Right now, we are seeing a tightening on currency.  Chase has been in the press recently after reprogramming cash limits on all their ATM's, lowering the maximum amount you can extract from them to $1000 dollars a day maximum for non-Chase customers and we will see other banks follow suit very soon.  Daily limits will fall prior to this meltdown, one time transactions limits will fall to $300 bucks or less.  ATMs fees are getting ridiculous.  The ones I use from time to time now have $3.75 transaction fees which I have only seen in bars up until recently.
 
What we are going to begin to notice is if you go to your bank and ask for a large sum of cash like $3000-$5000 they are not going to fork it over.  You will be asked to wait 2-3 days.  That is the sign that should scare the shit out of everybody because that is the evidence that the bankers are going to force migrate everyone to tolerate a cashless society where everything we buy or need can only be paid for with one of the dozens of point of purchase debit systems.  You have seen these popping up all over.  The belly up pad at 7-11, the apple wireless point and pay thing for iPhones, they are showing up at every store counter you go to just like the member discount cards did a while back.  "Got your VIP key fob?"  is a routine part of cashiering now and it's not an accident.  You are all being trained to pay with a thing that is NOT MONEY so when the money becomes unavailable you will have to use something else.  Now I want to ask all you regular church goers out there what that sounds like to you.
 
The fact is, it doesn’t matter if the "number of the beast" is a real thing or not.  What matters more is something else you can find in the Bible; a verse that warns that "the cost of a day's food will become the value of a day's wages".  And that food my friends, is something you will not care how you pay for. 

And THAT has been the plan all along.
