Russia’s Putin declares an end to Western currencies, says world moving towards “real reserves” including “land, food, gold”

Tuesday, March 29, 2022 by: JD Heyes

(Natural News) Russian President Vladimir Putin is predicting that the world will move away from the U.S.-dominated financial system after Washington, along with Western governments, seized his country’s currency assets as part of their sanctions for invading Ukraine.

In a video posted to social media, Putin blasted the “theft” of Moscow’s resources and mocked the notion that first-world currency reserve holders are “reliable.”

“Let me reiterate, the whole global economy and trade have suffered a major blow, as did the trust in the U.S. dollar as the main reserve currency” of the world, the Russian leader says in a translated clip.

“The illegitimate freezing of some of the currency reserves of the Bank of Russia marks the end of the reliability of so-called first-class assets,” he added. “In fact, the U.S. and EU have defaulted on their obligations to Russia. Now everybody knows that financial reserves can simply be stolen.”

He added: “And many countries in the immediate future may begin — I am sure this is what will happen — to convert their paper and digital assets into raw reserves of raw materials” such as “land, food, gold, and other real assets.”

Astute economic analysts foresee a world coming soon which will once again be dominated by hard currencies like gold and silver, as well as other precious metals, in addition to physical assets like land and food because paper fiat currencies and ‘virtual’ currencies like bitcoin are not just increasingly unreliable, they can be — as Putin said — simply stolen from the owner as if they never really belonged to someone else.

Brett Arends, writing in MarketWatch, picked up on something that a leading Russian official said last week that Putin alluded to in his speech.

“Here’s a strong argument for adding some gold bullion to your retirement portfolio right now, alongside those stocks and bonds. And it comes courtesy of Pavel Zavalny, the head of the Russian parliament,” his column begins.

It continues:

Zavalny spoke last week on the subject of all the economic and financial sanctions being levied against Russia following the invasion of Ukraine. Most of the coverage of his remarks implied that Russia might respond to the sanctions by switching from U.S. dollars to “bitcoin” for international trade.

But a look at the transcript being reported shows something quite different. Zavalny added bitcoin only at the end of a long list of other currency and trading options, almost as an afterthought.

What Arends found far more intriguing was Zavalny’s primary point, though it has been essentially overlooked by most economists (or dismissed outright as insignificant). If other nations want to buy Russian energy and other commodities, from now on “let them pay either in hard currency, and this is gold for us, or pay as it is convenient for us, this is the national currency.”

The ‘national currency’ being rubles.

Notes Arends, “In other words, Russia is happy to accept your national currency — yuan, lira, ringgits or whatever — or rubles, or ‘hard currency,’ and for them that no longer means U.S. dollars, it means gold.”

“The dollar ceases to be a means of payment for us, it has lost all interest for us,” Zavalny noted further, describing the greenback as no better than “candy wrappers.”

Arends adds: “What will this mean? Maybe nothing. Or maybe a lot. Especially if Russia’s lead is followed by countries such as China, India and others — countries that may not welcome Washington’s ability to control the global financial system through its monopoly power over the global reserve currency.”

If Putin is right, those countries won’t.

Previous :Just a gaffe or more dementia? Biden tells 82nd Airborne members they’re heading into Ukraine

The Media is the Number One Cause of War Since 1898

March 29, 2022In 1895, a 32-year old entrepreneur in New York City bought a failing newspaper and hatched a bold plan to turn it around.The newspaper industry was cutthroat, especially in New York. There were at least 16 other daily newspapers in circulation, and there was fierce competition for readers’ attention.But the young entrepreneur had an idea: thrill readers with tales of death, destruction, and brutality in the Cuban War for Independence against Spain.Cuba was a Spanish colony at the time, but revolutionary forces had been fighting for independence for several years. Few people in the US really cared about Cuba. But the new publisher vowed to make them care.His name was William Randolph Hearst. And his paper, the New York Morning Journal, constantly thrust Cuba in his readers’ faces.Their stories were full-blown sensationalism. By early 1898, Hearst’s Journal was printing outright fabrications of atrocities committed by Spanish troops in Cuba, in an effort to whip up public support for the United States to join the war.The government played along. While ‘war crimes’ did not yet exist, US President William McKinley escalated tensions by accusing Spain of atrocities, saying in a speech that “the civilized code of warfare has been disregarded.”Then, on February 15, 1898, a US naval vessel known as the Maine exploded and sank in Havana Harbor off the coast of Cuba. 268 sailors died.Several investigations were conducted, and to this day there is still nothing conclusive explaining how the explosion took place. It’s entirely possible that the explosion was caused by the Maine’s on-board fuel.But Hearst (along with many other papers) jumped to publish stories claiming the Maine was sunk by a Spanish torpedo, and they continued agitating for the US to join the war.Thanks to the effective media propaganda, most Americans were in favor of war. The newspapers had cast Spain as the evil aggressor, and its commanding general, Valeriano Weyler, was routinely called a “butcher”.The newspapers told Americans that the fight against Spain was a necessary one… that it was a matter of moral righteousness— a crusade of good against evil.They finally got their wish in April 1898 when the Spanish-American War broke out.There are a lot of similarities with the media today.The level of trust in the media is already laughably low. There was the obvious Hunter Biden laptop coverup, which most mainstream media refused to even mention during the US Presidential election in 2020.Then there were the outright lies in the Russia collusion hoax, for which the New York Times was even awarded the ‘esteemed’ Pulitzer Prize.(Coincidentally, the Pulitzer is named after Joseph Pulitzer, a newspaper publisher who also fabricated lies in the late 1800s and agitated for war against Spain.)Then there’s the case of Biden appointee Tracy Stone-Manning, who was nominated last year to head up the federal government’s Bureau of Land Management.Stone-Manning is a former eco-terrorist who participated in violent campaigns against forestry workers in her youth.This isn’t some wild conspiracy theory; Stone-Manning has admitted to wrongdoing, including sending violent threats to the US federal Forestry Service. She ultimately avoided prosecution and saved herself by ratting out her associates.But a recent Freedom of Information Act request revealed that NBC News colluded with the Biden Administration to go easy on Tracy Stone-Manning during her confirmation hearing, and whitewash over her terrorist history.This is pretty incredible…Think about the media circus a few years ago when US Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was accused of sexually assaulting someone when he was a teenager.There was no promise from NBC News (and other mainstream propagandists) to go easy on the allegations against Justice Kavanaugh that went back 30+ years.Instead, they smeared his name and deemed him guilty.It’s also noteworthy that, during Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing, several protestors stormed the Capital and physically accosted United States Senators in order to prevent the Constitutional voting process from occurring.Yet NBC News declined to label those protestors ‘domestic terrorists’, or to claim that democracy was ‘under attack’ because they had criminally trespassed into the Capitol. This is the same media which acted as the government mouthpiece during COVID, justifying the public health dictatorship that took over the world.This is the same media which watched cities burn in 2020 and said the protests were “mostly peaceful”.And, yes, this is the same media that has routinely pushed America into war. It wasn’t just Spain in 1898.The United States joined the Vietnam War based on a Gulf of Tonkin skirmish with the North Vietnamese which never actually occurred. But the Johnson administration and intelligence sources said it happened, so the media reported it as fact.Then there were those supposed Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq, which the media dutifully reported without question and helped push the US into war back in 2003.Today many in the media are calling for an escalation against Russia. They want a no-fly zone. They cheer the President’s dementia-ridden foreign policy and praise him for impromptu comments that only escalate tensions.Most of all, they force feed the war in Ukraine, 24/7, as if that’s supposed to be our #1 priority.Forget about the economy, rising prices, and supply chain dysfunction… and forget about conflict anywhere else in the world. We’re only allowed to care about Ukraine and Putin.Historically speaking, it is not far-fetched to think the media could help push the world into a major war… and one with potential nuclear ramifications.It’s not inevitable, but we are closer today than any other time since at least 1962— and certainly closer than even a week ago.That’s why it is more important than ever to be prepared for whatever the world has in store for us.And that means crafting a rock solid Plan B to make sure you can respond from a position of strength, whatever crisis comes next.To your freedom,

U.S. led biolab construction in Ukraine was started by Obama

Monday, March 28, 2022 by: JD Heyes

(Natural News) The only thing more nightmarish than eight years of former President Barack Obama has, so far, been one year of his vice president, Joe Biden being in office, but we’re just beginning to see the current disaster unfold.

That includes a new war in Ukraine after Vladimir Putin saw how weak and feeble Biden was and decided to make his move now instead of when our country had a strong leader in Donald Trump the previous four years. Just imagine what our country — and the world — would look like if the deep state had not stolen his reelection.

In any event, thanks to The National Pulse, we are learning that Obama’s legacy is far worse than previously thought — and that was bad enough: Apparently, the 44th president led a U.S. effort to build Biolabs in Ukraine and elsewhere designed for handling “especially dangerous pathogens.”

“The news comes on the same day that Biden regime apparatchik Victoria Nuland told the U.S. Senate that the American government is concerned about biological research facilities falling into Russian hands as a result of the ongoing conflict in Eastern Europe,” the outlet noted.

According to a Web Archive of a story titled, “Biolab Opens in Ukraine” posted to a site called BioPrepWatch.com (which is still online, by the way) on June 18, 2010, Obama, while still serving as a U.S. senator from Illinois, participated in negotiations for a deal to build a level-3 bio-safety laboratory in the Ukrainian city of Odessa. The piece, which also focused on similar efforts by the late Sen. Dick Lugar (R-Ind.), was also included in Issue No. 818 of the United States Air Force Counterproliferation Center’s Outreach Journal.

The story notes:

U.S. Sen. Dick Lugar applauded the opening of the Interim Central Reference Laboratory in Odessa, Ukraine, this week, announcing that it will be instrumental in researching dangerous pathogens used by bioterrorists.

The level-3 bio-safety lab, which is the first built under the expanded authority of the Nunn-Lugar Cooperative Threat Reduction program, will be used to study anthrax, tularemia and Q fever as well as other dangerous pathogens.

“The continuing cooperation of Nunn-Lugar partners has improved safety for all people against weapons of mass destruction and potential terrorist use, in addition to advancements in the prevention of pandemics and public health consequences,” Lugar said.

Author Tina Redlup added: “Lugar said plans for the facility began in 2005 when he and then-Senator Barack Obama entered a partnership with Ukrainian officials. Lugar and Obama also helped coordinate efforts between the U.S and Ukrainian researchers that year in an effort to study and help prevent avian flu.”

The lab was part of the Nunn-Lugar Act, named after the Indiana Republican and former Sen. Sam Nunn (D-Ga.), which established the Cooperative Threat Reduction Program in 1991 immediately after the fall of the Soviet Union. The program provided assistance and funding to former Soviet satellite countries to dismantle and then safeguard stockpiles of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons.

But obviously, it also established dangerous labs to handle extremely volatile substances, though not quite as volatile as the Level 4 biolab in Wuhan, China, that produced and then ‘accidentally released’ COVID-19.

According to a 2011 report from the National Academy of Sciences’ Committee on Anticipating Biosecurity Challenges of the Global Expansion of High-Containment Biological Laboratories, the facility in Odessa “is responsible for the identification of especially dangerous biological pathogens.”

“This laboratory was reconstructed and technically updated up to the BSL-3 level through a cooperative agreement between the United States Department of Defense and the Ministry of Health of Ukraine that started in 2005. The collaboration focuses on preventing the spread of technologies, pathogens, and knowledge that can be used in the development of biological weapons,” the report noted.

“The updated laboratory serves as Interim Central Reference Laboratory with a depozitarium (pathogen collection). According to Ukrainian regulations, it has a permit to work with both bacteria and viruses of the first and second pathogenic groups,” it adds.

Where is the ‘mainstream media’ hounding Obama to explain his role in this pending biological disaster?

Heart attack rates are skyrocketing, and the media is blaming everything other than COVID vaccines

Monday, March 28, 2022 by: Ethan Huff

(Natural News) The establishment is running into serious problems trying to explain away the skyrocketing rates of cardiovascular events that are occurring ever since Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) “vaccines” were unleashed on the world.

Corporate-controlled media outlets, including some “conservative” ones, are blaming everything from fluctuating weather patterns and daylight savings time to watching too much television and even having too much sex.

Suddenly, all the normal things that people have been doing forever are magically causing otherwise healthy (or so they seem) people to suffer a heart attack or stroke, even though this never happened prior to Operation Warp Speed.

“The ‘experts/priests’ who worship and respect the Science©, and interpret it like Nostradamus reading tea leaves, want to assure the peasants that the unprecedented increase in heart attacks, even in young people who historically don’t suffer from them has nothing to do with the ‘vaccines’ produced by the same pharmaceutical entities that coincidentally fund their research work,” the Daily Bell reported.

“Obviously, no conflict of interest affects the Science© overlords’ judgment because they exist in a moral class above the petty fallible humans they oversee.”

American Heart Association admits that COVID vaccines cause heart inflammation

On its website, the American Heart Association (AHA) reveals the following, which the lying propaganda press refuses to even acknowledge let alone report on: “We conclude that the mRNA vaccines dramatically increase inflammation on the endothelium and T cell infiltration of cardiac muscle and may account for the observations of increased thrombosis, cardiomyopathy, and other vascular events following vaccination.”

This seems pretty self-explanatory, but the establishment does not approve. In fact, it is going out of its way to try to deflect from the truth by blaming exercise and skipping breakfast for the massive uptick in heart events that we are now seeing.

“The principle at play here is akin to a legal concept called ‘plausible deniability,’” the Bell‘s Ben Bartee wrote.

“Most often, plausible deniability refers to members of high-ranking governments or similarly large, complex entities creating, through various machinations, a mirage of ignorance to protect themselves from liability for criminal or unethical behavior that they actually sanctioned.”

The corporate-controlled media is doing the exact same thing by presenting an array of ridiculous and highly unlikely scenarios to try to explain away all of the COVID jab injuries and deaths that are spreading like a virus among the “fully vaccinated.”

“If the corporate media can offer an array of alternative explanations for the precipitous spike in heart attacks, cancers, etc., then determining for certain that an individual owes their debilitating health condition to the ‘vaccines’ becomes virtually impossible – it could’ve been almost literally anything else!” Bartee added.

The stakes are high, and those who perpetrated the plandemic know their days are numbered. The more that gets revealed, the harder they try to deflect from the truth, even if their deflections are painfully and obviously fake.

Oftentimes, “conspiracy theories” start out being mocked, only to later be accepted once it becomes obvious that they are conspiracy facts. But the establishment has no other choice but to double and triple down in defense of the lie, otherwise the whole thing collapses on them.

Another lie that is crumbling is the false claim that mRNA “vaccines” do not trigger permanent changes to human DNA. It turns out that they do.

“The obvious takeaway is that none of the ‘information’ the corporate media presents is intended to inform, but rather to craft and then insert into the public psyche a deliberate narrative to absolve powerful actors of guilt,” Bartee said.
