Is World War III already underway? Catherine Austin Fitts and John Titus think so — and what’s striking is how every country is being pulled in.

Underneath the shooting war is a financial war, and underneath that, a slow, deliberate bifurcation of the system itself.

If technocracy is the operating system, the dialectical engine is what keeps the participants too busy fighting each other to look at the architecture.

Catherine and John frame an “inside trader’s apocalypse,” questioning insider trading, prediction markets, and a staged “assassination” narrative they argue is used to push a costly White House ballroom distraction while highlighting Vance’s role in advancing stablecoins and digital tokens.

Living plasma reminds us of something that ancient civilizations always maintained: that the charge of true power resides in the stars.

The ongoing sabotage or destruction of oil and gas production and refining and transportation facilities worldwide is an important pattern, as are rising costs or renegotiated agreements relating to trade channels and bottlenecks.
