Beware Of Financial Frauds

As the economy tanks, more and more financial frauds will be popping up. So says Catherine Austin Fittts, the former assistant secretary for Housing and Urban Development who now serves as publisher of The Solari Report. So Fitts and her team have put together a special presentation called “Protecting Your Assets.”

One of the many frauds Fitts sees are fraudsters impersonating her to rip people off with phony deals and false financial advice. She says, “We can’t give you investment advice, but we can tell you don’t do that scam.”

In closing, she points out that gold and silver are both in long-term bull markets, but as the economy can take a hit if the metals can get sold off to raise cash. She notes, “Big drops in gold and silver can happen.”

Fitts speaks with Greg Hunter on a 57-minute interview, pushed as part of Hunter’s series USAWatchdog.com.

 

Iran Opens Strait Of Hormuz!

Iran has reopened the Strait of Hormuz, leading to a steep decline in the price of oil. All other markets, including precious markets and the stock market, surged on the news.

Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi announced the reopening of the Strait, and President Donald Trump confirmed, saying, “Iran has just announced that the Strait of Hormuz is fully open and ready for full passage. Thank you.”

Those predicting the Iran hostilities would necessarily lead to World War III now have egg on their faces. We’ll see over the next week whether the peace holds, and what steps or negotiations can be expected next. Here’s more from Benny Johnson.

Will Oil Sales Boost Economy?

Is all the chaos in the Middle East proving to be a benefit for the American oil market? Are we actually going to sell more oil to foreign buyers, pumping up our economy? Will the prices paid by consumers remain high or will they drop at some point?

There’s quite a bit to digest, but Liberal Hivemind offers a decent take.

The World Will Soon Understand

Put on the full armor of God so that you can stand against the devil’s schemes. President Donald Trump takes on the Deep State in Iran. He is not threatening the Iranians. He is threatening those powers who have used Iranian terrorists to jack up the prices of oil.

What else have they done to push their electric vehicles? To reduce the manufacturing ability of the West? They meant to leave us desperate and unable to defend our nation from rapacious hordes.

The combat is temporarily suspended. There’s a two-week peace agreement, although it is tenuous. Iran still lobbed more missiles at Israel and Israeli troops obliterated rebel strongholds in Lebanon. But the Middle East will always be that way — one step forward, at least a half-step back. Pray. Here’s more from And We Know.

Markets Surge As War Lapses!

The stock market is soaring while oil prices plummet as President Donald Trump apparently has walked away with a triumphant victory in Iran.

Not only has Iran capitulated on opening up the Straits of Hormuz, but Communist China also is backing off. This means we might actually see genuine peace begin to arise across the Middle East. Let’s hope! Here’s more from Steve Turley.

[Pro] Trump Sleepers Shift Nay

The [Deep State] is panicking because President Donald Trump is gaining more leverage as he dismantles the [Deep State] system worldwide.

Sleepers that were pro Trump have now shifted to nay. The [Deep State] is about to lose everything.

Trump wants the [Deep State] to surrender to him. Once this occurs, they lose it all. Here’s more from the X22 Report.

Who Is Trump Really Fighting?

Is the War with Iran? Who is Trump at war with? How do his strikes in the Middle East challenge the elitist status quo across Europe?

Meanwhile, we are seeing moves and countermoves in preparation for the 2026 midterm elections. This will be the election of a lifetime. Here’s more from the X22 Report.

Markets Zip As Tensions Rise

Michael Jaco offers a succinct yet quite informative update on the how the Iran War is impacting the stock market, oil prices and politics in the West. He sees pressures rising in ways that could soon crash, or at least put a major dent, in the stock market.

As he has suggested for many years, Jaco recommends silver and gold, particularly silver, as an alternative. At the same time, he urges buyers to purchase when prices dip. We are seeing some dips — signs of bankers flooding the markets with silver to hold down prices as long as possible.

Jaco,  a former CIA officer, also tells his followers: Beware of manipulations. Over the short term, financial trickery can give false impressions, but long-term markets tend to show where the economy is headed.

While President Donald Trump might be resisting, Jaco believes Trump will eventually be forced to place boots on the ground in Iran to stabilize oil shipments and prices. He predicts limited troop dispersals, mostly along the coastline of the Persian Gulf, in an effort to prevent further attacks on shipping vessels traveling through the Gulf.

Operation Midnight Hammer

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on Sunday spelled out details surrounding Operation Midnight Hammer, the Pentagon’s strikes against three nuclear enrichment and weaponry facilities in Iran.

Trump drops the bombs and now we get the damage reports and reactions. The Pentagon seems to want war, more so than President Donald Trump. There’s also the usual suspects pushing regime change, including Sen. Lindsey Graham and former National Security Advisor John Bolton.

Of course, the Democratic lunatics are the most unglued. Some are agitating and calling for another impeachment drive against Trump. Even a few Republican iconoclasts, like Thomas Massie, are squawking.

Here’s more in a special report from Robert Gouveia in a special Sunday edition of Watching The Watchers.

2023: End Of The Dollar!

Josh Sigurdson reports that we are in for a hell of a show in 2023, including the possible end of the dollar!

Among the main culprits, Sigurdson says, is the skyrocketing  national debt, which now hovers at $31 trillion, and is rapidly chipping away at the economic stability in the U.S.

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev says he expects the dollar to lose its reserve status in 2023 and for oil to skyrocket in price. This comes as countries, such as Saudi Arabia, move into the BRICS system and look to trade oil in Yuan. Here’s more from World Alternative Media.
