The Wabash ‘cannonball’… Santa edition
https://railpictures.net/photo/759239/
Today was a most astonishing day of contradictions
I experienced one of my best days in Log suffering Gold Markets and at the same time I experienced some of the worst anti White Racism ever. Back in January I was told I would have to show a proof of eye exam by a Dr. before I could renew my drivers Licence .It was to expire in April3 ..I went to eye Dr and had exam done and submitted my results to Virginia DMV with the proper forms .Months later I got notice they never received the Med Exam which I enclosed together myself. It was a lie but I gave them the benefit of maybe somebody misplaced it. Meantime I was told DMV was not open because of COVID and the only office open in the State was the main DMV downtown Richmond ,and personal walk ins would not be allowed.Everything had to be by appointment and was told the next appointment available was in 3 months.
My drivers License would be expired by then ,so I went down there to see what could be done before it expired.I was told they would not answer any questions and to mail in any questions I had.She then called over a security Guard and he showed me the door. I made the appointment on line which by then I knew would be expired. I redid the Dr.s exam and submitted it by CERTIFIED Letter to have proof I submitted ti before expiration.The Post office didnt send me the return receipt until 2 months later. Another month goes by and they send me a letter that they accepted the Dr, eye exam exam and this letter would serve as notice it would be renewed .My appointment date was today May 17 …So I go down there and was met by a GUSTOPO like Guard again at the door who inquired if I had proof of appointment.I showed him the proof and he directed me to go to the last designated spot on the floor and wait there until he motioned me to step forward .I finally got to the teller and showed her all the correspondence I had along with their letter of acceptance of the Dr report ,the form filled out and the check that I originally sent them and they returned to me .Then she says to me this license is expired and I now need proof of identification such as Birth Certificate or Passport .I said it wasent expired when I submitted everything you asked for and the reason it expired was you wouldent give me an appointment for 3 months the earliest you had available. Why didnt you tell me I would need Passport or Birth certificate when you made the appointment 3 months ago since you knew it would be expired. She said sorry all I can do is make another appointment for you to bring passport or birth certificate .I said can you call Passport agency since I been waiting for 6 weeks and they still havent sent it yet ,she said NO .Where were you born ,I said NJ she said get another birth Certificate and bring it next appointment. This is the worst Iv seen a Government agency be since Democrats took over in Virginia .They are so RACIST and deliberately harass whites making them prove citizenship over and over again and look for any reason to deny renewal so as to harass whites. When then created the system that they know will make your license expire before it can be renewed. All the white employeees are GONE ,only blacks work there now and they create a system designed to make it impossible to simply renew before expiration. So they can pick and choose who they want to harass ….I have my 83 year old birth certificate and it will be there next appointment……RACIST Bastards
I would submit we are already in the beginning stages of a massive crash
ZH READERS——Difficult to see the forest from the trees when your deep in the woods.
I would submit we are already in the beginning stages of a massive crash – insane assets valuations, commodities all over the board, price volitility to extents in a day that would have been considered front page banner headlines years ago, Great Depression era levels of unemployment, collasping industrial base, shortages, a completely deracinated population so dumbed down they can’t put on velcro slippers.
***********************************************
No, we are there. Just the veneer of the old reality lingering around.
I’ve seen this story before. Housing and stock markets skyrocket, and the currency plummets. Last seen in Venezuela. I even recall when everyone in Venezuela was buying a house and then one day everyone stopped buying houses. Then a few months later everyone wants to sell their houses but don’t want the local currency – Bolivars. Looks like the U.S. is on the same path. What no one tells you about hyperinflation is that you get a deflationary depression in the real economy while the currency is hyperinflating. Sounds very counter-intuitive but you have to realize the real economy is collapsing while the currency is hyperinflating. Then you start getting scarcity and all sorts of scary shit going down.
********************************************************
I smell a crash. In everything. Too many people on the same side of the inflation boat trade. And this pains me because I’m greedy and well positioned for the inflation trade, which I’ve been waiting for for several years. 30% of me is worried that they are trying to scare me out of my inflation trade. The best I can come up with is sell 1/3 of the inflation trade positions. If I weren’t so greedy, half.
************************************************************
Every single time I’ve bet on a crash in the last 10 years I’ve been wrong. I did a lot of bottom feeding on the COVID crash and made out like a bandit against my better judgment. So I’m gun shy on my crash instincts.
**********************************************************************
Some bets, like precious metals, do fine in both atmospheres, but definitely for an inflationary bet for wealth preservation, miners are also a bet for inflation but still do great in market crashes. It’s not hard to be on both sides of the same failure of the markets bet. Inflation or crash is really what my bets are. We could have inflation that sees the markets continue to go massively higher and simply have currency creation create a crack up boom. Real value is not gaining as fast as inflation, but the markets don’t go down, however real value is plummeting with simultaneous growth. Hyperinflationary trend. My active bets of the market crashing are relatively small compared to my inflation bets. It’s not one wins and the other loses, it’s only if things actually start to look up that my bets go sideways.
Are the miners going to get squeezed?
Chile Assets Dive After Radicals Win Election Mandate To Overhaul ‘Free Market Friendly’ Constitution
In what’s being widely described as a shock loss after this weekend’s historic election to determine who will draft the country’s new constitution, traditional parties including President Sebastián Piñera’s ruling center-right coalition Chile Vamos got clobbered, seeing their parliamentary seats and influence greatly diminish in favor of both independent, hard-left and radical candidates Sunday night.

Guinea Pigs in a Worldwide Experiment :: By Rob Pue
I’m copy/pasting this without the authors permission or consent. If you pass it up it must be that you do not want to acknowledge the truth that is being intentionally withheld from you by almost all sources. If you care at all about what is happening to humanity, please read, recognize the truth, and pass it on…..but it’s always your choice, just as it was mine to pass this on to you! All The Best From Silverngold!
I realize that in these days it’s difficult to keep up with all the news and information that continually bombard us. It’s often hard to know what’s true and what’s not true. Even sources we would like to think we could trust often run with stories prior to doing any sort of independent fact-checking. We must all work harder than ever to get the real truth because real truth is now censored by the internet conglomerates and social media platforms. Try researching the truth about any of the things I’m sharing with you, and you’ll find plenty of articles online debunking these things, but you’ll need to dig very deeply to find the real stories. Here’s a tip: if YouTube or Facebook has banned or censored something, chances are that what they’ve banned or censored is true.
Things are made even more difficult for the average citizen to get the truth when there is so much deliberate DISinformation and liberal talking points regarding the New World Order agenda being pushed by the mainstream media — sources we once THOUGHT we could trust; though their “Operation Mockingbird” tactics have long since been unmasked. Unfortunately, only those willing to research the official narrative (because none of it makes any common sense) will ever question what is spoon-fed to them by the mainstream press. For most, if it’s on the TV news, it MUST be true. We are so easily deceived as a nation. We question almost nothing anymore, and people of all generations are now embracing easily discernable lies as facts simply because it’s constantly drilled into our heads.
How else can you explain so many people still wearing face masks everywhere they go, more than a year after our “two-week plan” to “flatten the curve” — and even though they’re completely healthy, while it’s been proven that breathing in and recirculating your own CO2 is very UNhealthy?
How else can you explain so many lining up to get experimental poisons (yes, POISONS — by the CDCs own admission) injected into their bodies, despite a substantially higher infection and death rate — and severe, life-altering adverse reactions — among those who have received the injections versus those who have not? Indeed, it’s now been shown by top doctors and scientists around the world (ALL who have been de-platformed, fired from their jobs and censored by the press) that thousands more have died or experienced adverse reactions after receiving their injections than before. Previously perfectly healthy people get the injection and then have serious lifelong TERRIBLE side effects. Or they just die. Simply “the cost of doing business” with the New World Order.
What’s even worse, it’s now been shown — both here in America and in Europe — that those receiving the injections are much more likely to spread serious illnesses to those around them in the days and weeks following the injections. So even if you don’t get one, those who did have now become so contaminated — “super spreaders” of a wide array of diseases — that if you have chosen to not be a government guinea pig, your chances of getting extremely ill or dying simply by coming in contact with an injected person are substantially increased. Rather than protecting others by being injected, you’re actually putting everyone you come in contact with at serious risk of illness and death if you have chosen the “jab.”
According to the CDC’s own data, the COVID “vaccines” are not vaccines at all but experimental gene therapy. And according to the VAERS system (which stands for “Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System,” which you can find at VAERS.hhs.gov, as of reporting April 25th), the CDC now says the injection is linked with more than 348,000 deaths in the US. The CDC further states that more than 60% of pregnant women have a serious side effect, including 16% that have their babies die in the womb within a week or two. You can analyze the VAERS information yourself, and you will see, by their own admission, these injections kill at a rate 32 times higher than regular vaccines.
Meanwhile, Facebook recently removed a popular and rapidly growing group where members could post stories about negative COVID “vaccine” side effects. The group was known as “COVID-19 VACCINE VICTIMS AND FAMILIES, had over 120,000 followers, and was gaining more than 10,000 new followers each week when Facebook closed it down and removed it. These were real life stories, heartbreaking stories, from real people. Simply wiped away. Again, because the truth is no longer allowed if it goes contrary to the “Agenda,” and understand this: if it is TRUE, then it definitely goes contrary to the official agenda.
To muddy the waters even more, corporate America is parroting the New World Order agenda with blatant propaganda in television commercials. For example, I’ve seen countless companies come out with commercials endorsing the militant Marxist movement known as “Black Lives Matter,” continuing to urge face masks and actively promoting the experimental gene-modification injections now passing as “vaccines.” And just recently, I saw a TV commercial featuring two lesbian “parents” with two adopted children, and this was touted as the “new normal” American family. No, the LGBT thing isn’t going away. It’s still being drip-fed into our minds like an IV by media of every sort.
So I would like to bring up a few topics that you probably aren’t aware of if you are one who considers “alternative media” sources like ours to be “right-wing conspiracy theories.” I assure you, the information I’m sharing today IS a conspiracy, but it’s far from a theory. These things are really taking place, and it seems nobody is noticing and nobody cares.
First some old business. Whatever happened to the massive body of evidence on Hunter Biden’s laptop?
Evidence of Biden sexually abusing and trafficking children? Evidence of Biden receiving billions of dollars from foreign enemy countries in exchange for favors from his father? This evidence is irrefutable and has been in the hands of our justice department, FBI and CIA for well over a year now. Yet nothing has been done, and I dare say, nothing will ever be done.
What about an obviously fraudulent election — stated that it would be so even prior to November 3rd by the illegitimate RESident of the White House himself on live TV? Despite absolute proof the election was more than rigged, it was outright STOLEN from real American voters, nothing will be done. Even with the startling forensic audits now taking place in Arizona — and perhaps more coming in other states — the average “Joe Sixpack” American has just let it go. It’s so low on their list of priorities, it no longer even registers, and it’s only been a few months. So I have no doubt that justice will never be done in any of these cases.
It’s just sad that so many have gone so quickly back to their slumber, without demanding justice, and all these atrocities are quickly forgotten, easily swept under the rug since the “news” media will never breathe a word of any of this to the American public.
We now find ourselves in a world of complete lawlessness. The guilty are set free and the innocent jailed. We’re also messing with God’s created design for mankind… from weather modification to genetically modified foods, and now, genetically modified humans… Not to mention, coming soon, genetically modified BEINGS. Have you heard that a US/Chinese team of scientists are experimenting with human stem cells implanted into the embryos of monkeys? The creation of a monkey-human hybrid should concern you. The purpose for creating these mixed-species “chimeras” is to harvest their organs for human transplant. Yes, this is really happening.
And the insanity continues in Canada when on March 16, Robert Hoogland was arrested at the British Columbia Supreme Court in Vancouver. His crime? Speaking against court-ordered testosterone injections for his teenage daughter. Hoogland was denied bail and remained in prison until his trial. He pled “guilty” — to the crime of SPEAKING — and received a sentence of 18 months probation. The British Columbia Supreme Court (in February 2019) ordered that Hoogland’s daughter should begin receiving testosterone injections when she was 14 years old, regardless of parental consent. The court further declared that if either of the girl’s parents referred to her ‘as a girl or with female pronouns,’ that parent would be considered guilty of family violence.
Also, in British Columbia, in the small town of Lytton, Charles Hoffe has been a medical doctor for 28 years. Dr. Hoffe was given 900 doses of the Moderna experimental injections and administered them to those who wanted them. From those injections, two people went into shock, one person died, and several others have suffered permanent disabilities. He says that one of his patients is now in so much pain, she would prefer death to life. For the record, no one in the community died from COVID-19 before the injections.
Dr. Hoffe reported these adverse reactions by email to the medical personnel in his community and received a very stern rebuke from his superiors at the Interior Health Authority. They forbade him from saying anything negative about the shots and issued a gag order against him. As he continued to see more injuries the following week, he became very angry about his gag order. He was told that if he had any concerns about the injections that he had to contact the medical health officer in charge of the Moderna “jabs.” When he did, his reputation was besmirched as he was basically declared a “quack” in official statements from the Interior Health Authority.
You may have heard of the Polish pastor in the Calgary area of Canada, who ordered Canadian police and a health official to leave the church he pastors, calling them “Nazis, fascists and communists.” That was last month. This week, they came back and arrested him. But the police tried to shut his church down again recently — twice in one day, and were thrown out by the men of the church. Pastor Pawlowski was previously fined $1,200 for violating social distancing orders as he fed the homeless in his community. [Update: He’s now been arrested.]
Meanwhile, in Edmonton, Alberta, more than 200 police descended upon a GraceLife church, surrounding the church, erecting a tall chain-link fence around it, chaining the doors shut with a lock, and shutting it down. They held the pastor in jail for nearly three months.
Here in America, a St. Louis chiropractor was recently charged by the Federal Trade Commission after he advised his clients to build up their immune systems using zinc and Vitamin D. You probably are not aware that in 2020, the U.S. Congress quietly installed a new censorship clause in a “coronavirus emergency response and relief package.” In HR 133, Congress gave the FTC supreme authority to target, arrest and fine anyone who doesn’t follow the government’s narrative on lockdowns, masks, quarantines and vaccines. Anyone who promotes a healthy immune system can now be charged and fined for the “criminal” act of helping people treat and overcome respiratory infection.
Let ME go on record and state that our God-given immune systems are greatly preferable to experimental gene-altering therapies that have been proven to cause death and lifelong health problems. Yes, I recommend keeping your immune system strong with Vitamin C, Vitamin D3 with K2, zinc and Potassium Iodide, to name just a few of the more important supplements that WILL keep you healthy.
Meanwhile, the Connecticut House of Representatives passed a bill that hopes to end the state’s religious exemption from immunization requirements for schools. It’s interesting how when we were kids, we were raised to not be peer-pressured into taking experimental drugs. Now… we’re being peer-pressured into taking experimental drugs. And soon, I have no doubt it will be mandated by the government, just as we were forced to buy Obamacare.
If you think that the idea of “Vaccine Passports” will never happen here, you should be aware that they’re already in effect in many countries, as well as New York State, where you can get SOME of your freedoms back if you can prove that you’ve been fully vaccinated.
And Hawaii has some of the strictest rules. For example, you’ll need to be fully “vaccinated” and have had a negative test, registered with an approved government agency within 72 hours of traveling to the Islands — OR you will face 14-day confinement when you arrive. Citizens of Hawaii must be fully vaccinated and have a negative test result from an approved government agency to travel between islands. And, of course, visitors coming from the mainland will still be required to wear masks during their entire flight — AND constantly while visiting Hawaii — even when outdoors on beaches.
Please beware of the false information out there that is rampant today. And also be aware that the government does NOT have your best interests in mind. We are in the midst of a worldwide scientific experiment, and WE are the test subjects. This experiment is being run by those who have long proposed de-population of the planet. They view human life as the problem, and their goal is to eliminate human life as much as they’re able and then wield total control over the survivors.
“Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil walketh around as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8).
Wake up, folks. Pay attention. You may not have been devoured yet, but plenty of others have, and it’s only a matter of time before the devil knocks on your door.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; but in all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Trump
Does everyone know the demos are planning on indicting Trump still afraid of him and don’t quite trust many of the repubs either. Someone pointed out that Rinos Republican in name only is just the way they are there’s no difference. The Governor might be able to stop it let’s see if he does.
All and all it looks like we’re gonna have to crash and burn going forward.
Ororeef 8:09
Ororeef People getting paid not to work.
That’s good for immigrants I guess while one more nail in the coffin of all the private businesses that can’t get help. I heard some want to work under the table so they can continue unemployment.
I figure it’s just hunger for working fir nothing but paying bills for so long as inflation and dollar devaluation rises around around them. They finally got a reprieve.
How did Trump mismanage Covid from what ever bad advice he got from little man Fauci?
Funny how we have all these people cashing in Trumps relief checks and getting fat on more unemployment than their jobs that was supposed to be temporary, rent reprieve, maybe food stamps too and won’t go back to work having the audacity to say Trump mismanaged the Covid pandemic because Trump hating news said so. They’re part of the problem.
While people in other countries couldn’t get supplies or Oxygen while Tump was going out of his way to supply what hospitals needed people in other countries were dying in hospital hall ways and families lining up to try to buy oxygen for family members.So much for social medicine.
Maybe these Antifa who want open borders and free everything should go there and see how they like it snd tell us how much better it is and how well that free stuff worked out fir them. They don’t have unemployment like us no less extended and REALLY have no jobs to go to.
Now we’re stuck with a bumbling idiots that will bring us closer problems facing other countries.
Trump was pushing to go get back to work , law and order and helping business so we’re not in that situation. Housing still off the hook, the Fed it’s interest rates causing that and banks. Things weren’t perfect but better than what we have now. Not to mention we know medicine that could of stopped most of this but its apparently a depopulation agenda due to their mismanagement.
Ipso
Unfortunately kids like to hang out with kids their age plus other activities involved. They have too much energy to be boxed in. They can still learn at home while going to school but parents need to demand to know what their teaching.
Just like the school in Virgins under fire for mandating graphic porn books. There demanding the ones on the school board going along with it be fired and need to be right now. They should also be charged with lewd behavior towards underage children and why aren’t they?
Mr Copper
Glad your getting out enjoying life.
yes, Ipso
You can say that…
This is one of the best days I’ve ever had in the shares on a % basis. Really hoping this is the beginning of a monster rally in the pm complex.
Bitcoin has been hammered, hopefully we’re seeing some of that money come in.
Centerra Gold
snip
The Kyrgyz Government effectively seized control of the Kumtor Mine over the weekend of May 15 and 16, 2021 by sending Government authorities to the mine, KGC’s office in Bishkek and the homes of several KGC employees. Consequently, Centerra is no longer in control of the Kumtor Mine and can no longer ensure the safety of the mine’s employees or operations. Shortly before the Government took control, all key safety, monitoring and operational systems at the mine were functioning properly. Centerra did not disable any such systems, and the mine was operating without incident. Due to the Government’s unprecedented actions, Centerra has suspended access of all local KGC employees in the Kyrgyz Republic to Centerra’s global IT systems to prevent any unauthorized intrusions into those systems. None of those systems are required to safely operate the mine.

Hey we’re having a great day!
Haven’t seen a day like today in a coon’s age! Can I say that? 
goldielocks @ 14:28
I think home schooling is great, if the parents have the time for it. The kids end up much better educated without all the leftist ideas rammed into their heads. If the schools aren’t fulfilling their original purpose then there’s no reason for them.
Ipso 9:31
That’s why parents need to teach their kids at home because of nut cases like that who define gender as a hate crime. They get both wrong.
Learning isn’t dependent in a box. That could be the demise of public schools.
One of my grandsons is in Mensa and had to teach himself cursive. As time goes on I’m sure that’s not all he’ll have to learn himself. He’s 13 now learning engineering and higher math. It’s not going to stop the smart kids no matter how they try to dumb them down especially if these kids are smarter than they are. Lol
Someone told me her husband taught himself calculus before he took the class for credits. That’s the best way actually because you don’t know what kind of teacher or class you get especially these days
@Aguila re 9:56
Hi, I’m ok thanks for asking, just nice weather up here, so spending less time on the computer, and more time outdoors. I do go thru all the posts, so I will respond to any I see addressed to me. Plus busy managing my PMs accounts, buying back and laddering up on positions, after that final double bottom in late march.
NEM – 52 week high
Let’s see if we can get the metals to approach new highs as well.
hui
moving up.
…320 in the rear view mirror.
Is Bill Gates really who you want in charge of the world?
Everyone is asking why Gates is being slung under the bus,…….yes it couldn’t happen to a worse PoS….but what is the agenda….
Morning Maddog
Surprisingly good day so far even wit the 10 yr. flat and the USD up a notch.
I really like how the shares are performing and it’s about time.
Mr. Copper – I second that motion
Mr. Copper – I’m missing my daily dose of your common sense comments. Feel free to make a post!
once the nut-case Boris Johnson decided to destroy Britain to Build Back Better, taking instructions from Gates and Schwab
Martin Armstrong—
I have written before how a friend of mine who is very senior at one of the investment banks in New York called to see if I would go to dinner. I thought he was here in Florida to catch a breath of fresh air and relax outside of what use to be called the Big Apple, but is now only called the Arm-Pit of the World thanks to COVID.
I can attest that the major banks, despite what they are saying, are abandoning both New York and London. In Europe, the long-standing hatred between France and England spans countless generations. France is seeking to punish the English by denying them access to EU markets. This has led bankers to start to shift their top talent to the EU because once the nut-case Boris Johnson decided to destroy Britain to Build Back Better, taking instructions from Gates and Schwab, there is now no going back. I have stated at conferences there were meetings I had in the EU where I was not allowed to bring a Brit because it was assumed they are just biased.
The Financial Capital of the World is moving. It will eventually end up in China post-2032. We have the worst possible politicians systematically destroying the West all for this Great Reset.
Mali union calls five-day general strike next week over pay claim
Mali’s main union will start a five-day strike on Monday which could impact the West African country’s gold mining sector, its secretary-general said on state television.
The National Union of Malian Workers (UNTM), which says it represents 80% of unionised workers in the country, including miners, teachers and health workers, has called the action in support of better pay.
The government has repeatedly said the budget cannot afford to meet the salary demands of the union.
“The strike notice remains in force due to a lack of a agreement with the government,” UNTM chief Yacouba Katile said on Friday.
