When safety and security become people’s paramount concern, their right to freedom is quickly substituted for tyranny.

Is it me or is it too quiet. Trump diversions may dominate the news cycle but what should we be watching:

1. What happened to the Epstein Files?
2. What happened to Pam Bondi and when will her replacement puppet be installed?
3. What happened to the grand jury investigation in Florida? Will the new federal prosecutor bring charges or run out the clock?
4. Will Israel be held accountable for their invasion of Southern Lebanon, the destruction of existing towns, the deaths of over two thousand people and the displacement of over one million people?
5. How will the price and scarcity of fertilizer impact this year’s harvest in the northern hemisphere?
6. How will the price of gas and diesel impact people’s budget and the economy?
7. What happened to the promised deportations of illegal aliens?
8. What happened to the Somalian fraud uncovered in Minnesota and the fraud uncovered throughout California?
9. What happened to UFO release of information that was discussed and dropped last week?
10. Why are scientists being murdered in the United States?

Jet fuel is only one component in the Epstein War’s consequences.

But it is a place to start:

From Grok:

The lack of jet fuel is already impacting the world right now (as of late April 2026), but severe physical shortages and widespread disruptions—such as major flight cancellations, further route cuts, and higher fares—are expected to intensify globally in the coming weeks, particularly from early/mid-May 2026 onward.

My follow up question concerning how long it would take to a return to normal conditions:

If the war ended today (April 23, 2026), normal jet fuel and broader oil/refined product supplies would not resume immediately. Transportation/logistics challenges (mines, backlog, insurance) would delay meaningful flows for weeks to 1–2 months, while damage to refineries, pipelines, and production infrastructure would push full pre-war levels out to several months (typically 3–7 months overall, with some elements taking longer).

And then my final question concerning the new “normal” price after the war is over and everything is operating smoothly again:

When jet fuel supplies are fully normalized (expected late 2026 into 2027, after the multi-month recovery of Gulf refining capacity, shipping logistics, and infrastructure), prices are projected to settle 15–30% higher than pre-war (early 2026) levels on a sustained basis. This is not a full reversion to pre-conflict baselines but a “new normal” reflecting lingering effects.

This is a best case scenario. If the war continues, the infrastructure damage in the Persian Gulf will be severely increased. So why is no one talking about the consequences of the Epstein War? Maybe the salient question is why no one is discussing the Epstein Files.

The whole planet has watched, in real time, how Sovereign Resistance, after 47 years of devastating sanctions, and paying a terrible price, is able to stare down the Empire.

Hormuz is the defnition of a strategic chokepoint. It goes through Iranian territorial waters. So obviously Tehran has the sovereign right to regulate the passage to non-innocent ships.

Of course The Empire of Chaos, Lies, Plunder and Piracy is oblivious to anything lawful. Especially because what’s already in play is a de facto global maritime blockade – imposed on Iran, Russia, of course China, and sooner rather than later any other nation across the Global South.

The oh so fragile ceasefire won’t hold. A move to break Barbaria’s blockade is all but inevitable – as in one seizing of an Iranian ship too many. The list of targets has already been announced: the Yanbu pipeline in Saudi Arabia, which bypasses Hormuz; same with the Fujairah terminal in the UAE; shutting down the Bab al-Mandeb. That’s over 32% of global oil supply, instantly gone.

And it’s the Empire of Piracy which will be responsible for it.

The identity of the Anglo-Saxon peoples is not an isolated development, but a continuation of the older Germanic world carried across the sea into Britain. When the Angles, Saxons, and related tribes migrated, they brought with them more than language or custom—they carried a living system rooted in kinship, honor, and ancestral memory.
This system, described in part by Tacitus in Germania, reflects a society bound together not by distant institutions, but by oath, shared lineage, and duty to the folk. It is best understood as Folkish (in the sense of community-rooted and place-based)—a structure where identity is inseparable from land, people, and inherited obligation.

Oath as the Foundation of Order:
Among both the continental Germanic tribes and the Anglo-Saxons, the oath was sacred. An oath bound individuals in ways deeper than law alone. It defined loyalty between warrior and lord, trust within the kin-group, and obligation to the wider community. To break such an oath was not simply dishonorable—it threatened the cohesion of the folk itself. This tradition carried into Anglo-Saxon England through the comitatus system, where warriors were bound to their leaders in mutual loyalty. In regions such as Mercia, authority rested not on abstract rule, but on networks of sworn allegiance—echoing the earlier tribal systems found along the Danube frontier.

Law as Living Memory:
Germanic law began not as written code, but as living memory—spoken, remembered, and upheld by the community. Over time, Anglo-Saxon rulers formalized these traditions into written law, such as the codes issued by King Æthelberht of Kent. Yet the essence remained unchanged. Law was not imposed from above; it emerged from the shared understanding of the folk. Its principles were consistent across both continental and insular worlds:
– Justice through compensation (wergild).
– Restoration rather than destruction.
– Recognition of kinship, status, and intent.
– Law preserved harmony. It did not exist to sever the community, but to hold it together.

Protection of the Household:
The household stood at the center of both Germanic and Anglo-Saxon life. Women and children were essential to the continuity of the folk, and their protection was reinforced through both custom and law. Tacitus noted the respect given to women among the Germanic tribes, and this respect is reflected in Anglo-Saxon legal codes, which imposed penalties for harm against them. The stability of the household ensured the stability of the wider community. To harm it was to weaken the entire social structure.

Mercia and the Danube – Continuity Across Lands:
The kingdom of Mercia offers a clear example of continuity with earlier Germanic societies. Like the tribes along the Danube frontier, Mercia functioned as a borderland culture, shaped by interaction with neighboring powers while maintaining internal cohesion. It balanced local authority with broader leadership, and relied on warrior elites bound by oath and kinship. Under rulers such as King Offa of Mercia, Mercia achieved strength without abandoning its decentralized roots. This reflects the same adaptive resilience seen among continental Germanic tribes facing Roman influence.

Sacred Landscape and Folk Tradition:
Religion among Germanic peoples was inseparable from land and community. Tacitus describes the worship of Nerthus, whose rites emphasized fertility, peace, and the sacred nature of the earth. This reflects a worldview in which the land itself was alive with meaning.
In Britain, similar patterns continued. Figures such as Nodens illustrate how traditions adapted while retaining their core structure: sacred spaces tied to nature, communal participation, and reverence for ancestral connection. This was a Folkish spiritual tradition, rooted not in institutions, but in place, people, and continuity.

When is the deportation of illegals going to start? The uniparty could not even fund DHS.

Reclaiming the Souls of the Next Generation

While America’s builders, warriors, and innovators have invested decades of blood, sweat, and unrelenting focus into external battles and economic survival—securing borders, prosecuting overseas conflicts, and maintaining the nation’s physical and technological infrastructure—the decisive threat has advanced undetected on the domestic front. Through public schools, digital platforms, curricula, cultural programming, and institutional medical practices funded by entrenched elites and aligned networks, an internal campaign has methodically undermined the cognitive, physical, and developmental foundations of our children. Every external success—military, economic, or political—becomes strategically irrelevant without a capable, healthy rising generation. The data confirm a generational crisis in academic proficiency, housing stability, public assistance dependence, early psychiatric medication, and vaccine-related adverse outcomes. This isn’t peripheral damage; it’s the primary theater of operations. We must therefore redirect our full national resources, operational discipline, and strategic resolve into an immediate, no-quarter counteroffensive at the scale of the Manhattan Project to rescue our youth and restore the long-term viability of the republic.

After Obama was elected the first time, I decided to never again vote in a Federal election. Vote for the lesser evil and still get evil; the uni-party. In 2024, I reneged on my pledge and voted for Trump. I was sold on the idea that he would restore the Republic. The short video posted above pretty well describes my position now. No one in DC represents me or us. I should have followed my gut and not voted for him, not that anything would have changed. But learning has occurred. No more voting in Federal elections for this old man. It’s been said that if voting mattered it would be illegal. I guess that’s so.

The saga of TACO Trump (i.e., Trump Always Chickens Out) continues to add new chapters… A few hours before the end of the two week ceasefire with Iran, Trump unilaterally announced an indefinite extension of the ceasefire (see image above), but also kept the blockade in place. After threatening to end Iran as a civilization, Trump backed down… And thank God he did.

By extending the blockade Trump is sabotaging any chance to having serious negotiations with Iran.
