It's Late in the 3rd Quarter: The Visitors are Clobbering the Overrated Home Team. The Cinderella Story of the Century.
Yet Mainstream media Keeps selling story that Russia is Isolated? Very weird indeed.
In the future, I will articulate my points more effectively. When discussing the USA—its foreign and domestic policies, power structures, Congress, and military—I also refer to the Federal Reserve.
This is crucial because the Fed's primary client is the USA, not the other way around. Understanding this relationship is vital, as the Fed's monetary policies directly influence both domestic economic stability and international financial dynamics. The interdependence of these entities underscores that discussions about U.S. power and policy are inherently linked to the Federal Reserve's role in shaping economic outcomes.
When we levy harsh criticism against the Federal Reserve, we do so precisely because this private banking cartel intentionally sets policy unilaterally (they are not elected) that creates misery for the masses and extreme privilege for those inside their private club.
Our substack friends lucky enough to subscribe and I all understand together that the Fed's policies exacerbate economic inequality and, more importantly, undermine democratic accountability, a matter of urgent concern.
But we are not the only smart cookies on Planet Earth.
Yesterday together, we looked side by side photos of some BRIC leaders against The West's unpopular, irrational, irresponsible, morally corrupt, floundering, and failed leaders.
Power Corrupts
Like the saying "power corrupts," we should feel safe knowing that our situation with the political class isn't unique. We're not the only ones going through this sick version of Stockholm Syndrome. History has hundreds, if not thousands, of examples of the masses having it up to their eyeballs and finally rising and kicking out the selfish clowns.
Before my dad passed away he and I would compare stories of tone deaf politicians. One of his favorites was
Czar Nicholas II of Russia
Nicholas II's stubborn resistance to reform and disconnect from his subjects' suffering contributed to the Russian Revolution. His belief in absolute monarchy and divine right blinded him to growing unrest. When faced with calls for change, he tightened his grip on power instead of compromising. This inflexibility ultimately cost him his throne and his life, as he and his family were executed by Bolsheviks in 1918.
King Louis XVI of France
Like his wife Marie Antoinette, Louis XVI's perceived indifference to the plight of common people fueled revolutionary fervor. His attempts to block reforms and flee the country cemented his image as an out-of-touch tyrant. The monarchy's lavish spending amid widespread poverty became a powerful symbol of inequality. Louis XVI's failure to adapt to changing times led to his deposition and execution by guillotine in 1793.
Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia
Selassie's autocratic rule and reluctance to modernize Ethiopia contributed to his downfall. While projecting an image of benevolent leadership abroad, he maintained a feudal system at home. His slow response to a devastating famine in 1973 eroded public support. Military officers, frustrated by his conservatism, deposed Selassie in 1974, ending the centuries-old imperial dynasty.
Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi of Iran
The Shah's westernization efforts and lavish lifestyle alienated conservative and working-class Iranians. His SAVAK secret police brutally suppressed dissent, while he hosted extravagant celebrations of Persian monarchy. The stark contrast between royal opulence and widespread poverty fueled revolutionary sentiment. Ultimately, the Shah's arrogance and disconnect from his people led to the Iranian Revolution and his exile in 1979
USA record is to prop up the unpopular ones because USA is an imperialist regime and views the Southern Hemisphere as its colony
One prominent example of a US-backed dictator in Latin America was Anastasio Somoza García of Nicaragua. The Somoza family dynasty ruled Nicaragua for over four decades, from 1937 to 1979, with strong support from the United States.
Somoza's regime favored US business interests, particularly the United Fruit Company, while much of the Nicaraguan population lived in poverty.
The Somozas amassed enormous personal wealth while neglecting the needs of their people, leading to widespread discontent and eventually revolution.
In Honduras, a similar pattern emerged. US-backed military governments prioritized export-oriented agriculture, particularly banana production, to benefit American companies like United Fruit Company (later Chiquita)
This focus on export crops led to a situation where large swaths of arable land were dedicated to growing produce for foreign markets, while many Hondurans faced food insecurity and malnutrition.
The concentration of land ownership in the hands of a few elites and foreign corporations exacerbated poverty and inequality in the country.
Quick comparison of US gold and silver deposits against just 3 competitors.
Snark sound bite: Apologies, I don’t have time today to put some of the other BRICS gold and silver data into these time consuming charts
Gold and Silver Global Mining Production per annual
Let’s begin with USA (we will name the home team)
For Silver: US compared to global silver mined.
Taking last year since we are still in 2024
28,935,672 troy ounces of silver mined is approximately 3.50% of 826,000,000 global silver mined
US ONLY 3.5%
For Gold: US compared to global gold mined
4,983,366 is approximately 4.33% of 115,000,000.
US ONLY 4%
Now Let’s Examine the Isolated Ones and in keeping with our sports metaphor we will call them The Visitors
RUSSIA ALONE DOUBLES US IN GOLD PRODUCTION
Russia’s annual silver production is 33% larger than US annual silver production.

China
For Gold this isolated country China’s 2023 annual gold mining (370) is approximately 138.71% more than USA 2023 gold mined (155). We might add that China under-reports and US may over-report.
Yes, India has active gold and silver mining operations.
Gold Mining
Hutti Gold Mines: This is currently the only active gold mine in India, located in Karnataka. It produces approximately 1.8 tonnes of gold annually and has a rich history dating back over 2,000 years.
Sonbhadra Mines: Recently discovered reserves in Uttar Pradesh are believed to contain significant amounts of gold, estimated at around 3,000 metric tons, although these are still under exploration.
While specific active silver mines are not highlighted in the search results, India does have silver production primarily as a byproduct of other mining activities, especially in states like Rajasthan and Andhra Pradesh.
The mining sector is regulated, and various companies operate in this space, contributing to India's overall mineral output.
In summary, India has an active gold mining operation at Hutti and ongoing exploration efforts in Sonbhadra, while silver production occurs alongside other minerals.
None of the G7 are on this List, even if you go back decades.
The West has been portraying that Putin is isolated (friendless)
We found evidence to the contrary
Putin standing alone isolated, the other dignitaries had to be photoshopped in right?
A small but very powerful group of people standing on the ground looking towards the sky for the Proverbial “Pot o Gold” located near the Rainbow’s end
The chick with blonde hair in the middle (going by the name of Ursula Gertrud von der Leyen) is not an elected leader but a German politician, weird
No idea who the dude on the far left is?
RE UK: Rishi Sunak lasted 21 months, facing criticism for economic struggles, immigration issues, and failing to revitalize the party's popularity. The brilliant and telling photo above was taken just a few months ago now UK has a new Prime Minister (and he is insane)
Macron is losing key elections and has control of Parliament and his country
Trudeau is Canada’s most unpopular, corrupt and unqualified Prime Minister
Biden was kicked out by his own party, it’s Kamala Harris running in the General
Japan faces a severe debt crisis with public debt exceeding 250% of GDP. The aging population, low economic growth, and persistent deflation exacerbate the issue, challenging fiscal sustainability. Their alliance with USA is backfiring

the financial walls were not created to keep Russia out of the financial system; the walls were erected in the Western zone to keep the dollar-based system locked-in.
The same way the Patriot Act was not designed to stop terrorism but rather to create a domestic surveillance system. So too were the “Russian Sanctions” not designed to sanction Russia, but rather to create the financial control system that will lead to a USA digital currency. The Western sanctions created a financial wall around the USA (dollar-based west), not to keep Russia out, but to keep us in. The Western sanction regime, the financial mechanisms they created and authorized, created the control gate that leads to a U.S. digital currency.
H/T CTH
Romanian dictator Ceausescu is another, who along with his wife, certainly received some brutal justice (I.e., receiving the consequences of your actions). And power corrupts? I have a copy of the Hawaiian historian R.J. Rummel"s sobering book "Death by Government", which i pick up now and then to remind me of what barbarism humans are capable of.
After reading this post, and regardless of what is happening now, I thought of the uniqueness of the founding of the United States, the Declaration, Constitution, founding fathers, 1776 and all that. Compared to all of History, an extraordinary event.
