Kamala Harris Blames Food Companies, Not Out-of-Control Government Spending, For High Inflation

After the unoriginal Vice President Kamala Harris stole former President Trump's proposed 'no tax on tips' policy, she's at it again with yet another recycled idea. This time, she's echoing President Biden's actions and rhetoric to crack down on sky-high food prices by proposing the first-ever federal ban on "corporate price-gouging in the food and grocery industries" — a move that reeks of socialism.

Instead of curbing out-of-control government spending, which debt rises $1 trillion every 100 days, and understanding that monetary inflation driven by the Federal Reserve's money creation is the root cause of inflation, Harris deflects the actual problem: The Fed. She instead goes after corporations for "illegal price gouging".

The Harris campaign said the vice president will unveil the new federal proposed ban on Friday at a campaign rally in the battleground state of North Carolina as part of a broader economic policy platform. The proposal will ensure food companies can't exploit consumers to increase profits, according to CBS News, citing Harris-Walz campaign officials. 

Harris' policy speech will also call on the Federal Trade Commission and state attorneys to examine corporations violating price-fixing rules. Her remarks are expected to echo Biden's actions and rhetoric, especially with his war against meat processing companies that he alleges are responsible for higher burger prices at the supermarket.

VP Harris' campaign argues that lowering Americans' costs is a function of socialist-style price controls. Yet this is the quickest way to understand that Harris' economic team has no actual understanding of inflation.

Here comes the real Kamalanomics: price controls

To follow: mile-long lines for food, meat coupons, shortages, food black market. https://t.co/EGx0dQMhxY

Instead of curbing out-of-control government spending, which debt rises $1 trillion every 100 days, and understanding that monetary inflation driven by the Federal Reserve's money creation is the root cause of inflation, Harris deflects the actual problem.

"Price inflation is a symptom of monetary inflation, which has everything to do with money creation by the Federal Reserve," economist Mike Maharrey explained. Mike warned that Harris's proposed policies, including price controls, would likely lead to shortages and exacerbate the problem rather than solve it.

Here's what X users are saying:

Literal communist economics. Holy crap, we have an example 90 miles from Florida of what that leads to.

Tyrannical UK Government Now Jailing Dissent: Use VPNs & Tor When Posting Online!

The BBC reports that a 40-year-old man has been arrested and criminally charged for social media posts that contained “anti-establishment rhetoric.”

Yes, really. Wayne O’Rourke becomes the latest example of the wave of authoritarian hysteria to impact free speech in the UK following the recent anti-invasion anti-murder protests.

O’Rourke was arrested on Sunday in connection with “posts made from a social media account,” according to Lincolnshire Police.

Anti-establishment rhetoric" is a criminal offense? O’Rourke had nearly 100,000 followers on X and predicted his own arrest days beforehand. So now apparently posting “anti-establishment rhetoric” in the United Kingdom is enough to get you locked up.

The report does not give any specifics of what the thought criminal actually posted, but he had “allegedly expressed support for the recent riots and offered advice on how to remain anonymous to his 90,000 followers.”

As we highlighted yesterday, A 61-year-old man in the UK was jailed for 18 months for chanting “who the fuck is Allah?” and telling police officers “you’re not English anymore” during a protest outside Downing Street.

MY COMMENT: I think it is safe to say in the Western world you need to be using forward secrecy while online, never posting your real info into ANY social media, using a separate isolated computer while doing so, and ALWAYS be using a VPN (don't use European or UK IP addresses obviously), if not even using Tor along with a VPN. Use more secure browsers like Librewolf, disable vulnerable telemetry, GeoAPI, WebGL and WebRTC protocols, and spoof your metadata using add-ons. It's sad we have to do this in the Western world now but I've been operating this way for 10+ years! I can see clearly see where things are headed as I do not drink fluoridated water, eat garbage GMO foods nor do I watch state-run media propaganda from the West!

Britain Is Proof: Traitors Plan To Use Migrants As A Mercenary Army Against The West

Why do western officials insist on gaslighting the public on illegal border crossings?  Why do they attempt to destroy anyone that publicly opposes mass immigration from the third world?

The laws on the books support the public’s majority position on immigration: Come here legally or don’t come here at all.  In Europe, the UK and the US polls show a majority of citizens want reductions in immigration and better border security.  Yet, government officials, who often claim to be “protecting democracy,” brazenly ignore these majority concerns. Why?

For many years now I have offered a specific theory on the true agenda behind open border policies in western countries and I believe this theory answers most of questions surrounding weaponized illegal immigration

The common claim is that this is all part of the “Cloward-Piven Strategy”: A social engineering method which uses large scale relocation of migrants into a society in order to deliberately destabilize that nation. The goal is to import people with a incompatible or hostile ideology and, eventually, the target culture will break down and be forced to accept a new system of governance (i.e. from free markets and liberty to communism and slavery).

If western populations are unified in opposing the globalist ideology then the task of deconstruction becomes impossible for them. So, they simply destroy the west from within by introducing millions of people that will NEVER assimilate or unify.

I think there is a deeper and even more sinister purpose to the introduction of third world migrants to the US and Europe: https://alt-market.us/cultural-replacement-why-the-immigration-crisis-is-being-deliberately-engineered/

In other words, my argument was that migrants from the third-world are not merely being used as unwitting tools for cultural saturation of the west. They’re not being shipped in by the millions to simply live off the fruits of our labor and our ancestors’ labors. I believe they are being brought into the US, the UK and Europe as enforcers for the establishment.

Think about it. They are essentially bought and paid for. They are mercenaries recruited with offers of easy citizenship, government handouts and the opportunity to brutalize the Western (and generally white) populations they despise. And, they are allowed to do this while hiding behind corrupt government law enforcement agencies for protection.

Third world migrants are hired muscle for the political elites. They can terrorize the populace, and if the native population takes action to defend itself the government can step in, call them hateful racists and declare martial law. It’s a win-win. The migrants then help with the enforcement of that martial law as the government doubles down on two-tier policing.

British citizens have been victimized for over a decade by migrant attacks and organized crime.  The two-tier policing system in the UK continues to protect these migrants from retribution while the government hides statistics that show how much violence is being committed by non-citizens.

Meanwhile, Keir Starmer and other government officials have been meeting with Muslim groups to reassure them that the government is on their side. The migrants are now emboldened to do as they please while the Brits face the reality that if they fight back, the government will put them in prison. The migrants are now, in the most basic sense, a mercenary wing of the UK government.

This is the highest form of TREASON by our own government happening on our soil, right now.  Americans better never give up their firearms, these governments clearly want us brutally victimized, perhaps even dead, so they can install their demonic lust for global tyranny and subjugation.

God Shuts Down Paris Power Grid After Olympics Mock Last Supper With Drag Fags

Looks like the Almighty didn't take kindly to Paris opening it's Olympics with a depiction of Christ's "Last Supper" full of Drag Queens, and even one guy with his ball sack hanging out.  The City of Light is now plunged into darkness - literally.

Social Media is reporting the outage widely:

BREAKING: Massive Power Outage in Paris during the Olympics!

— TaraBull (@TaraBull808) July 27, 2024
https://twitter.com/TaraBull808/status/1817328106421833821

Even the famed Eifel Tower has only its battery-operated emergency lights.

Many, MANY, people are openly saying this may be punishment for the Blasphemous Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games (in Paris) wherein they mocked God and Christ by portraying the "Last Supper" full of Drag Queens and Sodomites.

Apparently, the blue man was supposed to be God.  The fat woman behind him to the left is supposed to be Jesus.  The top-right image is the "Last Supper" full of Drag Queens, the Bottom right is a bearded "woman" dancing and below, to the left side of the "Last Supper" are more degenerates, including a man with his ball sack hanging out in public.  THIS is what [the French government] thought would be a proper opening for the 2024 Olympic Games.

The so-called 'artist' behind the Satanic anti-Christian ceremony was Thomas Jolly, a 42 year old gay Jew.

The level of open, public, SICKNESS, is stupefying!  France now has a very sick society.  For certain, not ALL of France, but a very significant majority is simply mentally ill and fixated on evil.  It is, in fact, disgusting.

For what it's worth, below are comparison videos, one atop the other, showing the Olympic Games in 2014 when they were held in Russia, versus the degenerate, perverted, freak show put on today by France.

Me? I'll side with Russia... the West is destroying itself and is already almost completely wrecked.

In Blowback To NATO Arming Ukraine, Russia Is Now Arming Iran & Syria

On Monday as the Middle East approaches zero hour of Iran's expected major retaliation attack on Israel, there is a Russian defense delegation in Tehran, and a US defense delegation in Tel Aviv. How is that for symmetry among enemies?

Russia's RIA Novosti news agency described the focus of the talks as "strengthening bilateral cooperation in a wide range of spheres including security" - and the meetings come amid growing speculation that Russia is actively helping the Islamic Republic to thwart potential Israeli attacks.

Russia has "strongly condemned" the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran last Wednesday. Iran considered the brazen act as tantamount to assassinating an official head of state while on an official visit. President Pezeshkian has meanwhile hailed Moscow as a "valued strategic ally."

There has of late been much speculation that President Putin is ready to give greater support to America's rivals and enemies in the Middle East as 'payback' for Washington's support to Ukraine over the past more than two years.

Both Israel and Iran have been rallying global allies to their respective sides. Iran on Monday announced it has called for an emergency meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to discuss the assassination of Haniyeh and to gain support for a military response. That meeting is planned for Wednesday.

The Guardian has said Tehran officials will at the meeting attempt convince Arab nations to give political backing to its right of retribution. This strongly suggests in the meantime that a major attack likely won't come Monday or Tuesday, but the anticipation could stretch into later this week.

Bolsheviks of Brussels Are Hellbent On Destroying European Farming To Starve Out Citizenry

The EU, under the control of the unelected global oligarchs, is systematically crushing agriculture through its policies, but this is happening not only in Europe but also across the wider West.

The European Commission and the vassal states that slavishly follow it, such as Germany, are taking one measure after another that can have no other result than to make traditional farming and livestock breeding impossible, an act that has been practiced for thousands of years.

EU policies threaten to destroy what has provided us with our daily bread and food and make it impossible for farmers to survive. The adage of “No farmers, no food” is apt. Without them, they will all ultimately starve to death.

Denmark has recently announced that it will introduce cattle, pig, and sheep taxes in 2030. Behind this is the green ideology, the European Union’s Green Deal, which is based on the idea that global warming is caused by human carbon dioxide emissions, and agriculture is linked to this, since cows, for example, emit methane into the atmosphere.

Forcing farmers not to cultivate certain areas, to clear land, and to stop their activities in order to protect the climate. This is what farmers in the Netherlands were forced to do a few months ago, and the measures put some 3,000 farmers in an impossible situation.

It is clear, therefore, that every move by Brussels and the European leaders who serve the globalist Bolsheviks in Brussels is deliberately destroying European agriculture. Normal leaders would not do this. These are war criminals, simply despots who have usurped law and order.

Do not be naive, Western civilization is under enormous attack by their own corrupt, treasonous politicians and subverted compromised government bureaucrats. Adversaries such as Russia and China must be applauding these despots for destroying the Western world.

Trump Campaign Issues Brutal Blow To Neo-con Project 2025 After Leader Steps Down

Any sane American would look at the horrible agenda list of Project 2025 and think to themselves the worst radicals of the DNC must have wrote this. That's because it is pro-war, pro-amnesty, pro-nanny state, anti-industry (green new deal nonsense), anti-capitalist and promotes even bigger government debt and expenditure. Well we clearly do NOT live in sane times, nor do we have sane leaders. Project 2025 was a neo-con project for the political establishment. Worse, they have been trying to gaslight millions of Americans, trying to get Donald Trump to rally behind their horrible agenda even as far as LYING about his supposed "support" for it... but luckily all to their dismay. The truth is out.

Project 2025 has been officially and publicly rejected right to the trashbin by the Trump campaign, right where it always deserved to be.

“Reports of Project 2025’s demise would be greatly welcomed and should serve as notice to anyone or any group trying to misrepresent their influence with President Trump and his campaign— it will not end well for you,” Trump campaign senior advisers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita wrote in a statement.

Project 2025 director Paul Dans has stepped down at Heritage Foundation after pressure from Trump campaign leadership, ongoing power rift over staffing control for potential second Trump admin, per internal email. This suggests Project 2025 will likely shut down.

Despite the clear rift between neo-cons and MAGA supporters, the Harris campaign continued to lie about Trump supporting the same policies she herself, and her neo-con friends, support.

Ukraine's Economy Collapsed, Zelensky Defaults On Western Debt

Who could have seen this coming? Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has signed a new law which defers public debt payments until October if necessary, Reuters has confirmed. The bill was signed by Zelensky and returned to parliament on Wednesday.

The government now has the authority to postpone payments on external public debt until restructuring negotiations are seen through, which could then see a moratorium held that would formally mark a sovereign default.

"It is necessary to introduce, for the period of transactions to change the terms of borrowing, temporary measures related to the servicing and repayment of debt obligations and a moratorium on satisfaction of creditors' claims," the bill released by the president's office said.

The clock is ticking on debt restructure as a payment freeze agreed upon two years ago will soon expire (on Aug.1), and as Reuters notes: "Earlier this month, Ukraine announced a preliminary deal with a committee of its main bondholders to restructure its near $20 billion worth of international debt."

Bondholders must still approve the deal, which is likely, given the plan has the support of foreign governments.

Exactly one week ago, Fitch Ratings downgraded the country's long-term foreign currency issuer default rating from the "CC" level to the lower "C" level.

"The reported agreement with external commercial creditors constitutes a distressed debt exchange (DDE) under its sovereign rating criteria," Fitch said.

Reuters further reviews that the proposal would see "a 37% nominal haircut on Ukraine's outstanding international bonds, saving Kyiv $11.4 billion in payments over the next three years - the duration of the country's program with the International Monetary Fund, according to government statements."

Venezuela Descending Into Riots & Chaos After Questionable Election Results

The country of Venezuela is descending into violent chaos this morning, with citizens protesting a "sham" election in the streets, government buildings being "stormed" and armed troops opening fire upon unarmed citizens.

It began this past weekend, with a Presidential Election in Venezuela.  As with most countries, the news media there undertook "Exit Polling" wherein they inquired of voters who were leaving a Polling Place, how they voted. 

Once Polls in the country closed, the media began broadcasting the results of the exit polls, showing the Opposition garnering 60-65% of the vote, and incumbent President Nikolas Maduro getting 30-35%.  Suddenly, during the evening, all the media were ordered by Government to STOP broadcasting the Exit Poll data.  Shortly thereafter, President Nikolas Maduro was "declared" the winner.   It went downhill very fast after that.

Thousands of furious Venezuelans took to the streets Monday to protest what they called a stolen election, tearing down posters of President Nicolas Maduro as the banging of pots and pans echoed through Caracas.

Venezuelans weary from years of food shortages, dwindling household incomes and a leftist government criticized as authoritarian, expressed despair after the electoral council loyal to Maduro said he won a third term in Sunday's voting.

The opposition, which polls had predicted would win by a landslide, said it took more than two-thirds of the votes in the oil-rich country whose economy lies in ruins.

"We were robbed last night," an angry Melanie Fiser, 22, told AFP, rejecting the official results.

The National Electoral Council (CNE) gave Maduro 51 percent of the votes, against 44 percent for Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, the soft-spoken proxy for wildly popular opposition leader Maria Corina Machado.  Yet, by their own numbers, the totals PROVE outright fraud because the totals add-up to 109.2% of the vote! Here. Look:

https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news-selections/world-news/venezuela-descending-into-chaos-after-sham-election-troops-firing-on-protesting-voters

Let's do the math: 51.2% + 44.2% + 4.6% + 4.6% + 4.6% = 109.2%

Citizens are openly saying "My country is not free, it's not peaceful it's not safe and all due to two genocidal, idiotic, and selfish men, who have held onto power through corruption and violence. Pray for Venezuela, we cannot continue in this crisis any longer": https://twitter.com/Bluntedina600/status/1817766838102901204

American Doctors Volunteering In Gaza Ask Why So Many Children Have Headshot Wounds

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called Israel the "most moral army in the world," but a high volume of deeply troubling wounds seen by American surgeons volunteering in Gaza is casting doubt on that claim. 

Dr. Mark Perlmutter, an American surgeon with heavy catastrophe-zone experience, is among those stunned by the civilian devastation they've recently witnessed in Gaza, and especially by a high volume of what appear to be precision rifle-fire wounds on children - including toddlers.

"All of the disasters I've seen, combined – 40 mission trips, 30 years, Ground Zero, earthquakes, all of that combined – doesn't equal the level of carnage that I saw against civilians in just my first week in Gaza," Dr. Mark Perlmutter, an orthopedic surgeon and vice president of the International College of Surgeons, told CBS's Sunday Morning. 

What most struck him was his observation that the overwhelming majority of the patients he and his team treated were children:

"I've never seen that before. I've seen more incinerated children than I've ever seen in my entire life, combined. I've seen more shredded children in just the first week … missing body parts, being crushed by buildings, the greatest majority, or bomb explosions, the next greatest majority."

"I have two children that I have photographs of that were shot so perfectly in the chest, I couldn't put my stethoscope over their heart more accurately, and directly on the side of the head, in the same child. No toddler gets shot twice by mistake by the 'world's best sniper.' And they're dead-center shots."

A Virginia anesthesiologist said he saw an estimated 30 single gunshot wounds to children in just two weeks. A doctor based in gunfire-heavy Chicago described the horrific conclusion he reached as the pattern emerged on the treatment tables in front of him: 

"I thought these kids were in the wrong place at the wrong time, like sadly, some of the kids we treat in Chicago. But after the third or fourth time, I realized it was intentional; bullets were being put in these kids on purpose."

“No toddler gets shot twice by mistake by the world’s best sniper.”

When he addressed the US Congress on Wednesday, Netanyahu said: 

"For Israel, every civilian death is a tragedy. For Hamas, it's a strategy. They actually want Palestinian civilians to die, so that Israel will be smeared in the international media and be pressured to end the war before it’s won." 

That claim isn't consistent with what the American volunteer doctors observed. Writing at Politico, Perlmutter and Dr. Feroze Sidhwa said the stream of child-headshot patients almost invariably arrived with one of two explanations from their families: "[They said] the children were playing inside when they were shot by Israeli forces, or they were playing in the street when they were shot by Israeli forces." 

So whose claims should Congress trust more? Dozens of volunteer American humanitarian doctors, or a prime minister who's already told them some of the most impactful lies they've ever bought?
