A Paleoconservative Rips Apart Trump's Venezuela Overthrow Authored by Terry Cowan via Substack There is no way to put a pretty face on our most recent regime-change adventure. It is pig-ugly, and not defendable on any level, or from any angle or perspective. The reality of it all is plain to see. The Administration boldfacedly asks, as the old saying goes, Who are you going to believe; me or your lying eyes?. Only a political toad like, say, Prime Minister Keir Starmer, would respond that they needed more information to get the "full picture" before they could possibly […]

Day 1,419: The Russia-Ukraine Conflict Just Surpassed Soviet War With Nazi Germany This week has marked another grim milestone in the nearly four-year long Russia-Ukraine war. The conflict has just entered its 1,419th day - which means it has officially surpassed the entirety of the historic Soviet campaign against invading Nazi Germany, which lasted 1,418 days from June 1941 to May 1945. Red Army forces eventually drove Nazi troops back from the Volga River all the way to Berlin, before seizing the German capital. But in today's war, the 1,419th day is just another in a long […]

Money And Power: Fiat Currency, Monetary Corruption, & The Architecture Of Extraction Authored by Justin Pak via The Mises Institute, Money is often described as neutral, technical, or merely instrumental—a passive medium facilitating exchange within an otherwise political society. This view is not only mistaken; it is profoundly misleading. Money is the hidden constitution of every political order. It determines which actions are possible, which institutions survive, which risks are rewarded, and which failures are forgiven. While constitutions proclaim rights and […]

Behind The Utter Failure Of Russian Anti-Air Systems In Venezuela There are reports that during the Trump-ordered military raid on Venezuela to oust and capture President Nicolás Maduro, at least one US helicopter was hit by surface fire or possibly small missile, but the chopper managed to keep flying - with the pilot wounded - and the damaged aircraft made it back from the mission safely. But this raised the question: what happened to Venezuela's Russian-supplied anti-air defenses, including S-300 and Buk-M2 surface-to-air missile systems purchased in 2009? While at this […]

Trump Imposes 25% Tariff On Any Country Doing Business With Iran "Effective Immediately" After it quietly faded away in late summer, that trade war with China is about to make a triumphal reappearance.

The ICE Elephant: Why The Law Requires All The Facts Authored by Jonathan Turley, In a famous Indian parable, five blind men are brought to an elephant. Each feels a different part of the animal, and they come to radically different views of what an elephant is. It depended on which parts they touched, from tusk to tail. The controversy over the shooting of Renee Nicole Good, 37, is a type of political elephant parable. People focus on only certain parts of the story to support what they want the case to mean. Critics and supporters of the responsible officer have slowed […]

Socialism, Not Sanctions, Is Responsible For The Destruction Of Venezuela Authored by Daniel Lacalle, Venezuela is not poor due to sanctions. It is poor because the Chavez-Maduro regime stole hundreds of billions of dollars and demolished the productive fabric of the economy. Venezuela had 12,700 private companies when Chávez came to power, according to Conindustria. Only about 3,800 manufacturing industries are still operating, of which around 3,200 are privately owned and 600 are state‑owned. The assault on private property culminated with the expropriation of more than […]

UK, Germany, France Push New Plan To Appease Trump On Greenland President Trump's Friday's remarks to reporters Friday made clear he is willing to take control of Greenland - even if it's the "hard way" - and this sent the Europeans scrambling over the weekend to come up with plans or strategies for quickly de-escalating inter-NATO tensions. "I'm not talking about money for Greenland yet. I might talk about that. But right now we are going to do something on Greenland, whether they like it or not," the President had said, adding: "I would like to make a deal. You know, the easy […]

UBS Explains Why Trump's 10% Credit Card Rate Cap Is "Unlikely" To Happen Update (1520ET): Analysts Erika Najarian and Tim Chiodo told clients that President Trump's proposed 10% one-year cap on credit card interest rates is "unlikely."

Most US Debanking Cases Stem From Government Pressure, Report Says Authored by Stephen Katte via CoinTelegraph.com, The majority of debanking cases in the US are a result of government pressure, rather than individual banks’ policies, according to a new report from the American think tank the Cato Institute.

Here is a look at Gerald Celente's shocking top trends predictions for 2026.

Look at who just became one of the largest holders of gold in the world.

Look at who just predicted $369 oil.

U.S. job growth is fading, housing starts have slumped to pandemic-era lows, and China’s economy remains under pressure. As growth doubts spread globally, gold is holding firm — supported by shifting Fed expectations and steady central bank demand.

If earning six figures still feels like falling behind, you’re not alone. This breakdown reveals why the real poverty line in America may be closer to $140,000—and how outdated metrics hide the true cost of modern life.

Is it possible silver will hit this jaw-dropping price?

This shows the price of silver would have to skyrocket to $917 to equal the 1980 peak.

Gold pulled back as commodity index rebalancing and a stronger dollar pressured prices ahead of U.S. jobs data. But central bank buying, geopolitical risk, and shifting reserve strategies suggest markets may be underestimating gold’s longer-term support.

Is this about to send the price of silver soaring above $100? Plus China continues to increase its gold holdings.

Precious metals investors are watching market conditions closely as gold and silver hover at pivotal price points. While both metals have already posted impressive gains, multiple converging factors suggest we may be witnessing the early stages of a significant price surge rather than a market peak. From record central bank...

China's "Silver Gate," Gold & War as we continue kicking off trading in 2026.

Today the price of silver vaulted above $80 as gold surged to $4,500, but this is the shocker of the day.

Gold holds near record highs as Morgan Stanley targets $4,800 by 2026. Rate cuts, softer oil prices, tight copper supply, and political shifts in Venezuela are reshaping the global metals outlook.

Venezuela’s crisis isn’t a silver story—it’s a gold story. U.S. sanctions reveal why controlling gold flows matters more than headlines, and what it signals for investors watching the next phase of the monetary cycle.

Gold and silver moved higher after Venezuela’s political shock, while oil and the dollar stayed restrained. With markets focused on Fed uncertainty and rate cuts, gold is quietly signaling caution as macro and geopolitical risks linger.

The silver market is facing a margin-driven shock that’s rattling prices but may be confirming something far bigger. A sharp CME margin hike is forcing leveraged traders to liquidate, triggering short-term volatility. But history shows these mechanical pullbacks often occur inside powerful bull markets—not at their end. This moment may...

Most investors expect a monetary reset to arrive suddenly. Mike Maloney argues it’s already happening. Gold and silver are leading signals of a global shift that will impact every saver and investor—whether they’re prepared or not.

Could silver outperform gold by 7x? Mike Maloney explains why a shrinking gold/silver ratio, rising industrial demand, and a multi-year supply deficit could set silver up for dramatic outperformance.

Gold posts its best year since 1979 with $5,000 targets ahead. Silver surges past $65, up 120% in 2025. Trump orders Venezuela oil blockade. UK inflation cools to 3.2%, paving the way for Bank of England rate cuts.
