Loading ...AOC’s office gets vandalized.
Reminds me when we were sailing down the coast of Jugoslavia.
Before it split up into Serbia etc. still very communist. We called in at a town to get food. No bread, that only comes Tuesdays and Fridays. Went to the supermarket (it was not a village, but a small town) and the only things on the shelves were butter and tampons. The country was desperate for foreign currency, and the girls went off to the duty free store to get some Martini – they came back with three bottles. Why? because it was three bottles for one pound, and they didn’t give change. It was probably three pounds for one bottle in Britain back then.
About as expected

Tulsi Debunks Top Obama ‘Russia Hoax Lies’ In Latest Bombshell Release
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/tulsi-about-drop-more-evidence-against-barack-obama
Obama spokesman says:
“Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response,” the statement read.
“But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction.”
But Tulsi’s DNI documents say otherwise.

The international bankers have declared war on gold … because they are sending a quarter million troops to Ukraine soon … as early as next week according to Martin Armstrong … at which point WWIII effectively starts.

I asked ChatGPT Breaking: if Japan’s #1 Gold Dealer Restricts Physical, Moves to Cash Settlement
There is no credible evidence that Japan’s #1 gold dealer (commonly recognized as Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo, headquartered in Ginza) has instituted a policy restricting physical gold sales in favor of cash settlement.
🔍 What we know:
-
Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo remains Japan’s largest bullion dealer, handling physical spot, forward, swaps and more—actively engaged in physical gold transactions, both domestically and internationally State Street Global Advisors+15gold.tanaka.co.jp+15seasia-consulting.com+15.
-
Retail gold prices have recently surged (reaching record levels around ¥16,885 / g in mid‑June 2025), but Tanaka still offers physical bar sales at its Ginza store and via online delivery, with no reported shift to cash-only settlements ousei.co.jpState Street Global Advisors.
-
There is no official announcement or credible reporting that Tanaka (or any other major Japanese bullion dealer) has restricted physical gold delivery, halted bar sales, or forced cash settlements.
-
While some smaller Japanese dealers (e.g. Ishifuku) have previously imposed temporary purchase restrictions during periods of high demand—such as limiting quantities per person or requesting cash transfer payments—for silver bullion specifically, not gold—and not as a permanent policy—it was tied to temporary stock shortages, not company‑wide strategy changes in gold delivery policy Reddit.
🧠 Community chatter vs. reality:
Online forums and speculation have noted delivery delays or shortages in Western physical bullion markets (e.g. London, COMEX), often tied to shifting regulations (e.g. Basel III requirements) or logistical bottlenecks Reddit+2Reddit+2Reddit+2.
However, none of these external issues apply to Tanaka’s operations in Japan. There is no evidence these supply chain pressures have translated into an official pivot to cash settlement at the retail level.
✅ Summary table
| Claim | Verified? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Japan’s No. 1 gold dealer restricted physical delivery in favor of cash settlement | ❌ No | No official or reputable reporting supports this. Tanaka continues normal physical operations. |
| Temporary purchase caps at dealers like Ishifuku | ✅ Yes, but only for silver | Mostly due to stock shortage events, not long-term gold policy changes gold.tanaka.co.jp+1seasia-consulting.com+1Reddit+3Reddit+3Reddit+3. |
| Global bullion market liquidity issues | ✅ Yes (London/COMEX), but not tied to Japan | These issues reflect broader global constraints, not Japanese domestic gold retail policies. |
I Asked ChatGPT is it true is it true Digital Yuan COMPULSORY — Citizens Forced to Convert Life Savings or LOSE ACCESS
There’s no credible evidence that China is forcing citizens to convert their life savings to the digital yuan—or losing access to their money otherwise. Most claims like “convert now or lose it all” stem from sensationalist videos (e.g. on YouTube by channels like Buildr) YouTube+5YouTube+5YouTube+5, but they lack support from reputable sources.
Here’s what we do know:
🧾 What the official rollout really looks like
-
The People’s Bank of China (PBOC) introduced e‑CNY to partially replace cash—not bank deposits—and participation is optional, not mandatory WIRED+2Wikipedia+2#SixthTone+2.
-
Users choose their level of wallet via KYC (anonymous to fully verified), with clear transaction and balance limits. It’s not a wholesale conversion of savings Wikipedia.
🔍 Any sign of coercion or forced conversion?
-
Critics mention restrictions on large cash withdrawals and greater promotion of e‑CNY YouTube+9chinacenter.net+9#SixthTone+9, but requiring permits to withdraw doesn’t equate to forced conversion—it’s part of ongoing capital control measures.
-
No state has enacted laws or policies to seize private bank deposits unless withdrawing into the digital currency.
🧩 The truth behind the rumors
| Claim | Reality |
|---|---|
| Citizens are being forced to convert savings | No official source or law mandates this. |
| Accounts or wallets are frozen unless converted | Isolated cases of wallet freezes have happened (usually fraud or compliance-related), but not tied to mandatory conversion YouTubecarnegieendowment.org+1carnegieendowment.org+1YouTube+4Facebook+4YouTube+4. |
| Loss of access if you don’t convert | No legal basis—current law treats e‑CNY as a choice, not compulsory. |

Living Near a Golf Course Puts Your Brain Health at Risk
Story at-a-glance
Residents within a mile of golf courses have 126% higher chance of developing Parkinson’s disease compared to those living farther away
Golf course chemicals infiltrate groundwater supplies and drift through the air, creating multiple exposure pathways for nearby residents
Stricter pesticide regulations in Europe result in dramatically lower chemical hazard scores compared to American golf courses, especially in southern states
Dense residential areas near golf courses lack natural barriers, concentrating airborne pesticides and increasing your vulnerability to chemical exposure
Regular exercise helps eliminate accumulated pesticides, while water filtration and air purifiers reduce ongoing chemical exposure at home
Digital Yuan COMPULSORY — Citizens Forced to Convert Life Savings or LOSE ACCESS
The Digital Yuan is no longer optional. Every citizen in China now faces the same ultimatum: Convert your life savings, or lose access entirely. Bank accounts are freezing, and cash is being locked out of the system. All financial roads now lead through Beijing’s central digital wallet. And the deadline is ticking down fast.
Digital Yuan COMPULSORY — Citizens Forced to Convert Life Savings or LOSE ACCESS – YouTube
Why is the Chinese government forcing 1.4 billion people into a currency they cannot control? What happens to those who refuse or simply miss the deadline? And could this be a glimpse into the future for the rest of the world? It all begins with a simple push notification, one that turns into a national reckoning.

Breaking: Japan’s #1 Gold Dealer Restricts Physical, Moves to Cash SettlementTheir Gold is Spoken ForTanaka Restricts Gold Bar DeliveryEither they are having a hard time getting it, or their supply is increasingly spoken for by a stealth buyer. Given their systemic impirtance and global reach, we’re going with a stealth buyer. Official Reason: Cost Management and Logistical StreamliningThis month, Tanaka Precious Metals Co., Ltd., Japan’s number one bullion dealer and refiner¹, (owner of Metalor, subsidiaries in China, and operator of Japan’s largest metals refinery) issued a notice to its clients outlining a series of changes to its “General Account” services.

I can’t assume he had assisted suicide. I remember seeing his group many years ago in LA. It was back real time active times where we didn’t just sit there but danced and people would pass whiskey and who knows what else around. Since I didn’t drink, years too young anyways , by the time we got out we’re messed up
I found this where Sharon his wife talked about Assisted Suicide and going to Switzerland for advice.
