the kids are unlikely to stand a chance.

Those early years in school are very important and when their most receptive to learning if it’s a good school environment, parents shouldn’t miss out in helping them after school.   Parents can no longer trust the schools. If they are not proficient by third grade at a third grade level maybe even second they’re going to fall behind from there on.

I think one of the problems was when phonics came out years back. They treated sight reading as a bad thing. Like it’s bad to see a word and recognize it and have to sound it out instead.  They thought it was such a great idea but I don’t think so. For one children don’t start out with big words right off the bat they need sounding out. They can work with them but if those words aren’t repeated d over and over while a new one is added when they slowly recognize the words all their doing is pulling teeth.  It’s been down hill ever since. They mentioned the kids are having a problem with comprehension. Well if there so busy sounding out every word they read of course there not going to remember much about what they just read. Then they doubled down by doing the same in math. Instead of memorizing addition subtraction and times tables they have them fill out empty boxes. Sometimes parents can’t even figure out what they’re doing so now the kids need calculators.

A couple of years ago my daughter bought an interactive globe for the kids, then aged 4 and 2. I thought it was a cheap tacky thing which wouldn’t last three months, although it spins properly, has a pen for selecting the country and topic and a screen for multiple choice questions. Tap on Iceland and geology and it tells you about volcanoes and glaciers, New Zealand and fauna and it tells you about kiwis and wekas etc. Grandson, now 4, caught me checking the POG and pointed to the flags and said “That’s Canada and that’s America”. His aunt was telling him that we were in New Zealand and we might see a kiwi. “I doubt it,” says he, “they’re nocturnal. They only come out at night.” And he can’t even read yet. It’s just amazing! It’s also the only electronic device they have access to, apart from movie night on Fridays. No TV.

The older one, now nearly 7, is in grade 1 at the local state school where the teachers had to undergo the woke gender variant training which interestingly was organised by the teachers union, not the education department – but we’re not worried. She was at the births of her baby brother and sister which naturally raised some questions, and she’s fully aware that “girls have vaginas and boys have penises”.

Lighter volume in the shares across the board today. Yesterday it was heavy.

Going to be interesting to see how the scum plays it the rest of the week. $33.50 & $2950 loom large. 330 – 340 HUI is another place they’ve defended.

Will be interesting to see if we have enough strength to break up and out. Silver looks like it should chart wise, but then again, relying on a chart would be my first mistake.

Will they let the weekly closes look good for a change?

PPI tomorrow. Upside in the dollar and rates after the soft inflation data was a surprise. The inflation data was a surprise.

Past politicians and neo cons set the stage. Hopefully Trump and Doge and start to make a difference. If Congress wasteful spending undose those efforts and the resulting down shift of the economy was all for nothing there’s gonna be hell to pay. Blue collar jobs will continue to increase during this time due to Trump’s efforts of bringing jobs home. Even a French shipper invested 100 million. I think he’s a smart business man with many other getting around tarriffs. Meanwhile prices for cost of living need to come down. We may need a recession to do it.

But if  status quo Senate not balancing the budget and stop the printing press and  screw up this time their all done. Well need to Doge them too and get a new Gov. Armstrong was right it looks like when he predicted a long time ago we will move back to the private sector from the government public sector. Dang it sounds like a hurricane outside.

“School choice is coming up. I heard some comparisons and it’s shocking. Children in the eighth grade here are educationally equal to third graders in Singapore.”

That’s a statistic that is easy to believe.

Notice how the scum knock silver down in the last 10 minutes of after hours trade. Almost 15 cent smash….

Dog

Not till the Senate grows a brain. Rand Paul made that point. They better hurry up and grow one and take some math classes or all Trumps efforts will be for nothing if they lose majority again like last time  when during mid terms if people think it doesn’t matter who they vote for, they’re just going to bankrupt the country anyways by just  giving it away to different people.

Maybe Armstrong computer is right. Ukraine will no longer exist and will be Z’s fault. I can only wonder if this area Russia is holding are Russian speaking citizens he’s protecting.  As they already were doing a genocide against them before and how would the UK or any EU country react if the BRICS started to put up military bases and missiles right on their borders.

To American who don’t recognize provocation then blame shift  propaganda How did Kennedy react when Cuba let Russia bring over ships with alleged weapons.  It almost caused a nuclear war. I was a child then but old enough to know it was serious and some people were getting out of the city in Southern California I was at the time. Bomb drills at grade school stepped up. . Why should we let this actor who likes to dress up pretending like he just climbed out of a fox hole blowing everything out of proportion cause world wide chaos. They’ve  been hating on Russia since the 1930s but yet expect people to forget what they’ve done. Done to Russian speaking Ukrainians who wanted to succeed because of it, Done to the Jews in WW11 or the Polish genocide with unspeakable crimes where they turned into homicidal maniacs cutting babies out of pregnant woman and tearing the baby apart, and thinking up more violent ways to kill them. Beating a Ukrainian man for refusing to kill his Polish wife. But everyone else is supposed to forget the crimes they did like it was nothing, that was back then  attitude.  At first I thought they don’t live in todays world where a newborn had nothing to do with what happened 100 years ago. But if the majority feels the same as Z then nothing has changed.

… and at a record … despite DOGE.

U.S. budget deficit surged in February, passing $1 trillion for year-to-date record

The rising rates are outstripping any DOGE related gains so far.

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/us-deficit-hits-record-11-trillion-first-5-months-2025-february-taxes-fail-cover-even-half

Don’t over panic, it’s $1.1tn, you can’t put a full stop in the URL title; just panic moderately.

Solutions:

a) DOGE saves $2tn per year as hoped and the economy enters severe deflation as all that money creation is removed. Bonus: Interest rates will fall to zero saving another $1tn!

b) Taxes are boosted by $2tn, tanking the consumer economy and causing a depression.

c) Tariffs are boosted by $2tn, tanking the global economy and thus losing the $2tn in tariffs anyway.

d) Keep printing money to pay the bills so the US inflates its way out of trouble, crashing the USD and resulting in a major depression.

Pick your poison. Consult your AI oracle for the best/most likely/alternative scenario, and ask it if any options are bad for gold.

“We cannot get out. We cannot get out”. Ori the Dwarf, The Book of Mazarbul.

it confirms that Putin is right to not consider him a player. Z has said on many occasions he won’t sit down with Putin. That he won’t concede territory. Russia must pay reparations. USA must give him more help. Every day he flips from what he said yesterday by 180 degrees. Involving him in any way in negotiations is just delaying peace.

Ukraine is beginning to look a real vipers nest, of lunatics.

re: not giving up any territory.

That’ll throw a spanner into the works! I’m sure that Trump is not amused. Zelensky is living in a dream world … while his soldiers die in the mud.

… was really laying on thick last night to keep the plebs happy with their collectivism … but G. Edward Griffin has a few sobering words for you … wake up if you think The Donald is on your side …

As I have been saying … he works for the bankers … and the bankers intend to unleash a digital gulag on you … and there will be no coming back until it all collapses.

The trick will be to be alive.

Wake up folks

Doubt Russia will be happy with that…….

Almost. I bet the option traders are salivating.

Europe starting to rethink. Wants to start spending money into their own country’s or that’s their claim because they didn’t bring up money for their borders and bring in non Western trouble  they don’t even need The citizens should shun and not buy from anyone who hires or houses the invasion of any one that supports it without making it verbalized or will invited more dictatorship scenes. Teach their children about these criminals and racists and to stay away with them like a plague and tell them if their bothering them. If they don’t assimilate segregate. They are trying a round about with the tarriffs so think any positive talk is not genuine just reactive.

Meanwhile Trump will be working on bringing job’s home were tarriffs are not even a issue. He wanted to know who it was that came up with the bright idea to buy electricity from another country.  School choice is coming up. I heard some comparisons and it’s shocking. Children in the eighth grade here are educationally equal to third graders in Singapore. That’s how far behind they are under the current school boards. I’m sure part of it is the amount of children of immigrants where they be the majority. What does that tell you about the future of those areas?

Nice, steady move up in the metals. Waiting for the shares to catch a bid.

to be so wrong earlier……

The people should stop worrying about the SM, buy some silver and gold if they can and if they can’t thanks to the globalists store some food buy some popcorn because this isn’t about the SM where these globalist park money this is a revolution and if it isn’t going on in their part of Europe there either lucky or maybe it should.

… the thinking being once it’s left in the rear-view mirror, it becomes support. (it’s annual structural resistance)

The cabal is fighting this tooth and nail.

Next month is not a delivery month for silver, so if a lot of deliveries show up again … it will be all over for the cabal with 20% of all the supply they have right now out the door this month.

People in the know would panic and the squeeze would accelerate.

Everything is crossed.

Mornin all

Mai oui, c’est sur. Lol
