  1. Catherine, Trump dropped out of the WHO but he turned around and put a lot of US funding in GAVI, another Gates controlled organization in Switzerland. Almost as bad as WHO.

    2. For all the good that Trump is perceived to have done, I keep coming back in my mind to the fact that he gave us WARP Speed. As of April 15, the CDC’s VAERs system has reported 27,349 Covid vaccine deaths and 1,236,645 Covid vaccine adverse reactions. Harvard’s VAERS study found that less than 1% of these adverse reactions are actually reported. Most reputable doctors use a factor of 20 as a reliable number (rather that Harvard’s factor of 100), to adjust for this underreporting.
      So, 20 X 27,349=546,980 WARP Speed vaccine deaths and 20 X 1,237,645=24,752,900 WARP Speed vaccine adverse reactions!! And most reputable doctors imply that the worst is yet to come! This is awful! It’s a disgrace! These numbers would be ZERO had Trump NOT given us WARP Speed. No amount of economic good he may have done is worth the death of innocent American lives! Trump continuously says that he wants to be remembered as the “Vaccine President”! So, I believe that we should remember him for it!

  3. Super M & Mkts report. Catherine, thanks so much for your recommendation for the film “Velvet Queen”. It is absolutely fantastic. The scenery of Tibet, often called the “rooftop of the world”, and its wildlife are breathtaking…!!! The philosophical banter between the two chaps is priceless and the scenes of the Tibetan sherpa Family assisting them are golden.

  4. I guess it’s an academic question, but I remember Catherine and Joseph savaging Trump every quarter with a report card, and he seems like the head of the class compared to what we have now. No doubt the grades Delta Brother Bluto (later Senator John Blutarski) achieved during his seven years at Faber College would seem positively valedictory by comparison to what the doddering dolt Joe Biden deserves.

    1. Did not think we savaged him. His grades ranged from A to F and the facts backed up our opinions IMO. Just because a B or C student is better than someone who gets straight Fs does not mean you give them an A. Accountability is a tough master.

      1. Certainly not implying uncivilized or uncouth, but really no punches were pulled in the grades you gave–and he deserved to have been reelected and treated better overall. We are literally handling the bums we have now with kid gloves never worn since 2016 when consummate BS artist and phony Obama was in there.

        It is our first amendment duty to criticize politicians They turn their failures into fortunes in the friends and family plan. We need a complete housecleaning, not another whitewash. I have never seen it as bad as it is now. Agitate a civil war abroad and blame one combatant for our own abysmal diplomacy, intelligence and state-craftlessness. They built a wall around the White House and Capital and a rhetorical and legal barrier to protect themselves from legitimate political protest. That should be savaged.

        1. They also defined some criticism as misinformation. Mercola took his entire site offline, then it returned with articles expiring quickly. Saker stopped covering some topics, due to fear of prosecution. Both have since returned to a middle ground, e.g. Mercola on Substack.

          Even now, social media companies were asked to provide data on individuals, https://brownstone.org/articles/the-federal-government-forces-social-media-companies-to-censor-americans/
          “On March 3, Dr. Murthy announced an initiative, wherein he demanded that tech companies provide the government with “sources of misinformation,” including the identity of specific individuals, by May 2 [2022] … The Government is deciding what speech is acceptable and may be heard, and what speech is not acceptable and must be silenced, on the most hotly debated political topics of our time. This strikes at the heart of what the First Amendment is supposed to protect.”

          New mechanism proposed for automated censorship, with the potential to become law soon, https://www.nocensorshipfilter.com/
          “Now, politicians are trying to sneak through the so-called “SMART Copyright Act,” a bill that would make all of this way worse by mandating automated censorship filters at nearly every layer of the Internet, from ISPs to streaming platforms … We’ve heard Congress is hoping to slip this through quietly as part of a must-pass spending package.”

          Was Topher’s censored song “The Patriot” for eulogy or rebirth?

          1. Rich, I believe we are on the same page. How can anyone worry about whether or not Trump is running while Biden&co still are at large?

        1. The DOJ would not file an appeal on the mask mandate unless they had taken a head count at SCOTUS for overturning the Florida judge eventually and they are guaranteed a win. No matter what comes down the chain in the circuit court maneuvers freedom has to be stopped at SCOTUS. The SCOTUS has to implement more totalitarian mask mandate for what’s coming prior to the mid-terms and beyond. Just sayin,

  5. Speaking of mothers, Google Docs now offers editing advice on inclusivity, one more reason to prefer local-only software, https://www.vice.com/en/article/v7dk8m/googles-ai-powered-inclusive-warnings-feature-is-very-broken
    Social editor Emily Lipstein typed “Motherboard” (as in, the name of this website) into a document and Google popped up to tell her she was being insensitive: “Inclusive warning. Some of these words may not be inclusive to all readers. Consider using different words.”

    Many thanks to you and John for continuing to shed light on the critical issues of our times.

    It looks like in 2018 there was an event that is crucial to understanding the current situation from a “bigger picture” perspective.

    I have recently come across the work of Dr Andrei (Andrey) Fursov, a Russian historian / sociologist / political economist. In his YT videos (link below) he frequently refers to the Santa Fe conference at the Complexity Institute organised by the NSA in 2018.

    It was a 3-day, by invitation only conference that had 6 presentations: general, industry, economics, dangers of AI, climate and demographics. There were no academics there, only “serious” people, like big corporates and agencies. A couple of highlights:

    Climate – The climate presentation had a lot of data on EROI (energy ROI) of conventional vs renewable energy. The bottom line is that renewable energy has a low EROI and cannot replace coal.
    General – The participants looked at 4 global development scenarios: (1) optimal (2) revolutionary (3) catastrophic and (4) anthropological transition
    (1) and (2) were rejected because of a) low intellectual standards and lack of will of the political elites and b) the emergence, in the last years, of a law abiding, compliant individual not capable of taking up responsibility and thinking for himself/herself.
    Most voted for (3) catastrophic and (4) anthropological scenarios.
    The anthropological predicted that there will be 2 quite separate classes, essentially 2 castes and 2 biological species – higher class (10%) and lower class (90%), with nothing in the middle.
    The higher class will live on ecologically clean land, will eat proper food, etc, while the masses will live in big smart cities, eat crickets etc…etc

    I could not find the direct references to the Santa Fe conference, and it would be great if Solari Report subscribers could point me to these sources.

    Going back to Fursov, his work on how our social order is evolving toward a post-capitalist system is very insightful. All the turmoil we’re in is a direct consequence of the genesis of a new social order. In this new post-capitalist order the main object of appropriation and the factor of production is not capital-labour, but informational-spiritual.

    What direction the new order will take depends on us, the people, the pushback. And the adherence to traditional human values that are now being so actively destroyed.

    Andrej Fursov – EcoTalks Vortrag: “Das Domino Prinzip” (Zukunft und Globalisierung) #127 – in Russian with German subtitles, explains the biggest catastrophy of our times – the revolutionary transition toward post-capitalism. This time not done by the proletariat, but by the elites themselves. No middle class, only the rich and the poor; genesis of a post-capitalist order. Capital has no role to play, the object of appropriation is the informational-spiritual factor (vs labour). Mentions the Santa Fe conference in 2018

  7. Since cash Friday has been a success, what about meat Monday? Where I reside, a very desirable gift to receive is a high quality cut of meat. I understand very well the war on meat and meat producers, and began gifting local grass fed cuts as presents to friends and family for the holidays or when invited into their homes for an occasion. They continuously comment to me that this meat is far better than what they purchase in the grocery store and would like to know how they could get access to it. This opened up the conversation as to how they could potentially access products from local ranchers, help support the local food supply, pay in cash, cut out the middle men, and enjoy a very good product.
