Well, joining us now is Gerald Salenti of Trends Journal. As I pointed out earlier in the show, TrendsJournal.com, a great resource. Gerald has been out in front of all this stuff so long. CVDC, this commercial real estate debacle that we're seeing happening now and what it's going to do to the banking industry. Everybody's just now catching up to what Gerald said about this a long time back. But I was just talking to Gerald, and he said he wanted to pick up on what I was talking about with Trump. He said he just got a letter from a subscriber of his talking about the vaccine stuff. But did you hear, Gerald, when I talked about Trump, you know,

after DeSantis criticized Trump for lockdown on the Wednesday night debate Thursday, Trump came out and said, you know, DeSantis vaccinated a million people. And the one millionth person that he vaccinated, that guy died four months later. I didn't vaccinate anybody and neither did Fauci. Can you believe that? Isn't that amazing? Look, Trump is a liar. Yeah.

And by the way, just so everybody gets this straight, this is the Trends Journal from the winter of 2017. It is Trump. Crusades 2000, Crusader Trump. We were the first magazine to call him a winner in May of 2016. So it's not whether I like Trump, hate Trump. It's the facts. He lied his way into office with three big promises.

Number one, I'm going to build a fence. They're not going to come in anymore. They're the immigrants, the refugees. I know. Isn't that funny? Yeah. Number one line of BS. Number two, we're going to repair the rotten infrastructure.

Anybody could look this up. Yeah. We're going to didn't do anything to repair our rotted infrastructure. Number three, I'm going to lower taxes. He did. He lowered taxes, and according to the Tax Policy Institute, the 1% got 64% of all the advantages of the tax cuts. And stock buybacks the next

year, because he lowered taxes to the big corporations and the rich like himself, stock buybacks hit a record $1 trillion plus of the companies buying back their stocks. The BS that the clowns said

was, we're giving the geese tax breaks. What they're going to do is they're going to put the money back into capital investments. No, they didn't. They put it into stock buybacks to artificially prop up the markets. So going back to Trump and the guy that brought us the Operation Warp Speed, that, again, it's in your trends journal. We write about things, the facts as they're going on. You go back to 2020 before the elections. Harris and Biden made fun of Trump.

They did not trust the vaccine because it was pushed through so quickly by Trump. He was doing it to get votes. Yes, I remember. Yeah, that's right. Now, this is from a subscriber that just came in this morning. So when I heard what you said, I guess I got to I have to I have to I have to read this. Dear Gerald, I hope Trump rots in jail why because he ushered in untested shots that killed and injured people the young 30-something professor that she told me about is still in icu 10 weeks

now she kept falling many broken vertebrae can't operate due to blood clots all over her sweet body. The dad works with my husband. He is so distraught. I send food for him and pray for her. Gerald, not sure if you have children, but as a mom of three, I am heartbroken. I'm asking God to spare his only daughter, this guy who she mentions. This is Trump's fault. She was forced to take the jab to keep her job. Trump ushered in the COVID cult. Biden ran with it. Fauci is living up with it. F you Fauci dirty demon. Can't wait to hear he died.

Yeah. Oh yeah. Well, you know, and that's one of the things you mentioned that she was coerced into taking it to keep her job. Right. And I said that to people before the election,

I said, after what Trump has done to us this year, there's no way I would vote for that guy under any circumstances. And they said, well, you better vote for him because if Biden gets in, he's going to force it. And I said, but if Trump gets in, he'll still course it, he'll do it through the private companies. And that's really where most of the coercion went through. You had Biden who, uh, who, who, uh, forced it on the people in the military, right? But they're fond

of saying, well, we didn't force anybody to take the vaccine. We gave them the option. You can have a life and take the vaccine, or you can have no life and no job and not take the vaccine. And a lot of that was exactly the way it was going to be done with Trump. They wouldn't incentivize it. More like what DeWine did in Ohio, where he said, hey, if you take the vaccine, guess what? You might win a million dollars or you might die or you might be disabled the rest of your life. But, you know, it's the lottery. Just go ahead and sign up for this. Maybe you're lucky. You feel unlucky, punk? You know, it's going to be that type of thing. I said, that's the way the Republicans will do it.

They will do it with bribery and blackmail. And Biden will be more on the blackmail side of it. What did you mention, DeWine? How about the dope? DeWine, look at that little clown boy of nothing. Look at that little jerk DeWine over there in Ohio. How can you be so stupid to listen to him? Oh, we're not listening to him.

We're getting Krispy Kreme donuts. If we get the vaccinations, we'll get free ones. If I take this horrible vaccine, I can eat some horrible junk food. What's wrong with that? You know, people, the guy wrote to your weather, said, don't be angry. Yeah. You ready? He who is not angry when, when there is just cause for anger is immoral.

Why? Because anger looks to the good of justice. And if you can live amid injustice without anger, you are immoral as well as unjust. St. Thomas Aquinas, for all the new Christians out there who are little cowards that suck up and bow down as they rob us of our freedom, our life, our liberty, and the pursuit of happiness and get us murdered. Yeah, we had a lot of pastors who were pushing that too. Pastors who were around Trump, you know, they actually had a movement to get pastors to tell that to people. Oh, it's a miracle.

It's, you know, God's given us an intellect. And so, you know, this is our, the result of the intellect. And it's like, no, that's a result of a fallen world. Uh, and a fallen human nature is what we're seeing here. Uh, yeah. When we look at it, of course, a lot of times I'll just look at this and I'll just laugh at the dark irony of this stuff. And that's, that's one of the things, I mean, sometimes you just need to back off of this stuff and and just say you know because God laughs at this stuff he laughs in derision knowing that ultimately these people

answer to him they think that they're going to push God away you know sometimes you know eventually they will feel his wrath and his anger but sometimes he just laughs at the futility of what they're trying to do the key thing is you talk about ohio that was where pharma swami that's what i call rama swami i call him pharma swami because he's a pharmaceutical bro he worked with martin squarelli and all the rest of this stuff he's not a scientist even he doesn't even you know but he's just a you know a con man. That's the one line I liked. And it was when Chris Christie called him a chat GPT.

He is pretty chatty and he is a real gadfly and he's very shallow and he flip flops and all this stuff. But people need to remember that he was part of that COVID team of DeWine and he was pushing one of his companies to do tracking and surveillance of people yeah yeah oh that that that blimpo uh uh that clown boy christy a little piece of garbage crap calling that guy a skinny guy this blimp calling this guy skinny. It's fat slob, a fat, arrogant, slob, jerk Christy who goes to Ukraine

and promises we're going to keep fighting and giving you all the money and weapons you need. Hey, fat boy, you want to go over there? Go over there and fight. You couldn't fight your way out of a paper bag, Christy. By the way, they couldn't make a paper bag big enough to put you in. Well, they did find a mask that was big enough to put over his face, and he couldn't find his way out of that.

Instead, he put the mask on. He tried to tell us we all had to wear masks as well. Do you remember that? Yeah. I'll never forget Christy doing that, putting a mask on his face and telling us we all had to wear masks. I mean, give me a break. What me a piece of look at this scum. Look at the scum.

All you had to do is watch that. I couldn't watch it. I turned it off. I can't watch this. This is worthless. It is worthless crap. Yeah, that's right. And these are the people that are destroying our lives.

You know, a friend of mine said to me, you know, Gerald, you know, a lot of people, you know, they don't like you because they don't like your language. Oh, you don't like my language? I should be proper in my language when somebody's trying to kill me? That's situational language. When someone is trying to kill you,

you don't say, oh, please don't hit me i'll be a good boy oh please no you're in the fight for your life that's right we are in the fight for our life look what they did with this drug stuff yeah look at all you you were talking about the myocarditis all the one after another after another, the facts are all coming out. Blood clots, turbo cancer, all of this stuff, all of this stuff. And the arrogance, the arrogance. Here, this is from the toilet paper of record, the New York Times, August 24th,

almost two years ago to the date 2021 two judges see it here two judges tell defendants to be vaccinated the defendant was charged

with a number of minor crimes including drug possession. Oh, you mean like Hunter Biden? Oh, no, he could drug out all he wants. He could steal all he wants. He's the president's son. Yeah. Anyway.

And he's got pictures of himself with minors and sexual positions. That's not a problem either, right, for these people? Yeah. The defendant was charged with a number of minor crimes, including drug possession and shoplifting. either, right, for these people? No. The defendant was charged with a number of minor crimes, including drug possession and shoplifting. He was prepared to plead guilty, and the prosecutors agreed. But a Bronx judge approving the deal added his own condition. The defendant had to get a COVID-19

vaccine. A week later, a Manhattan judge made the same order. This time of a woman seeking bail before trial. You ready? Judge

Rakoff, how about jerk off argued that it fell to him to him who the hell are you yeah oh i'm a judge you're a slimy piece of crap you're an arrogant little boy judge ratkoff argued that it fell to him to determine whether a person seeking release represented a danger to the community. giving their quote enhanced risk of infecting other innocent people and even potentially causing their death how's that for a lot of stupid crap hey hey arrogant judge how about the people that got vaccinated that transmitted the virus maybe you're're too stupid. Hey, how about Obama got it a couple of times? Got the COVID. How about fraud Fauci? Boosted away, got COVID. How about when they had that, oh, that press thing

where all the little prostitutes go to meet the president and had the thing and all of them were vaccinated and all of them, how many of them got the covet again yeah that's right but these are only facts I'm angry I'm angry I am an American Patriot I believe in the founding fathers I believe in the Bill of rights and the constitution who the hell are you to tell me what to do which by the way is one of our t-shirts as you know hey politicians yeah well you wear that to the uh debate if they let you in yep and here's the other one here's the other side you can get people by going to trendsjournal.com and hitting the shop.

People can see the backside of that as the security is hustling you away from the debate there. You know, the thing that bothers me, and we just had another person die, still being denied transplants because they won't take the vaccine, because they've got moral objections to it, or because even, you know, it's not healthy for them. What a take. Yeah, and one of the things that just another person died, even, you know, it's not healthy for them. Yeah. And one of the things that just another person died, but you know, the one, the worst one, I think of all of these that are, and that's been so many bad ones. I mean, you had one situation where a woman had a friend who was going to donate the kidney.

And this is the first time I saw the first one that I heard about. And, um, she wasn't in line to get the kidney and take it away from somebody else. You know, this is her friend was going to donate it specifically to her. They would not perform the operation for her. Tell her, go back and get in line somewhere else. But we had a guy, the worst one I think was a guy who's, he needed a kidney transplant. They would not give it to him because he wasn't vaccinated.

And he died. And then they come around and ask for some organs to be donated to his wife after they killed him for not getting a vaccine. That's the amazing thing to me, that they're still getting away with this stuff, that they're still doing this. That's the most amazing thing. How about you couldn't go see somebody dying in a hospital or a nursing home? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Maybe more accurately, you couldn't see what the hospital was doing to kill the people,

you know, because this is a hospital death protocol. All this ventilator stuff that Trump was pushing and so proud of, they're killing people with it. And, you know, the remdesivir, they're killing people with it. Never worked, never, under any circumstances. Fauci's pushed that every time they had high profile disease, he pushed that out there. And everybody said it just doesn't do anything except kill people. People don't know this.

Again, we write a magazine, and I'm not bragging. There's no magazine that compares to it in the world. That's right. In the series of in-depth trends analysis and trend forecasts we give. That's true. Prior to the COVID war that began on Chinese Lunar New Year 2020, the year of the rat, there were protests going on in Italy and in other countries about forcing children to get vaccinated. Strong protest movements in the United States. There were referendums coming up on ballots against forcing children to get vaccinated.

This movement, the anti-vax movement was going very strong before COVID happened. All of this is forgotten. Yeah, I've not forgotten it. I've played forgotten it. I've played Trump in May of 2019. They got to get the shots.

They got to get the shots. Talking about the measles shot. You know? I'm saying there was an anti-movement going on. Yeah, that's right. A vax movement. And also, going back to China, this is very important. I used to be on Hong Kong TV back in 2019. There were protests going on in Hong Kong that Beijing could not stop.

Over a million people out of 7.5 million were taking to the streets. You can't get a million people out of 332 million in America to take to the streets for anything. Over a million people out of 7.5 million were taking to the streets in protest of Beijing taking over Hong Kong. They launched the COVID war in January, locked down Yuan, locked down Shanghai, locked down, locked down, locked down Hong Kong, pass the security law.

End of the protest, took over, finished. Nobody reports that. That's right. Now, China also had three years of zero COVID policy. You go back 10 years ago, we were saying in the Trends Journal that the 20th century was the American century, but the 21st century will be the Chinese century

because the business of China is business and the business of America is war. China destroyed itself with this COVID war policy. They are not going to take over. They're going to go down big and they're going down hard. They have destroyed three years, three years. They destroyed the lives and livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people. So, you're looking now at the other reality is that when China had the boom, thanks to the slimeball Bill Clinton who brought him into the World Trade Organization, he officially

came in two weeks after 9-11, so nobody even knew about that. You look at their GDP from 1970 to 2001 when they come in, and then it shoots up like that. So they had a real boom. And as with all booms, people get greedy and they overbuild. And the bust was happening anyway, particularly in the real estate market. Evergrande. So they were due for a bus to come and now the covid has made it a hundred times worse because they locked down the damn place for three years yeah so now their exports are way down

and their imports are way down so your imports are way down You mean all that stuff that Europe and other countries are sending in and your Starbucks and your this and your that and your luxury goods floating in aren't floating in anymore? But also, this is huge. It's huge, the damage that the Chinese caused. And unfortunately, as an Italian, Italy was the second country to lock down after China. Yes. And the average age of the deaths in Italy was 81 years old. That's right. That's right. Yeah, we had two weeks worth of that data, and the average had two and a half comorbidities or at or above life expectancy. We had two weeks

worth of that. Trump put this thing through. As you pointed out many times, there was nobody dying. But getting back to China, I think one of the key things was late in it when they went with that real horrible lockdown in Shanghai. I said, this is really just about teaching people a lesson in the same way that I think Mao's great leap forward was, right? Let's take everybody out of the city. We're going to teach them a lesson. And, you know, I'm going to show how powerful I am, just like Stalin did with the Halamador and other things like that.

These authoritarian dictators will destroy their own country in order to show people how powerful they are. And I think, um, she did that with Shanghai in the same way that Mao did it with a great leap forward, the same way that Stalin did it in Ukraine with the Lomador. I think that is a key part of that. And, and they just kept going. As you point out, you got, uh, in this, um, week's, uh, trends trends journal you've got spotlight is china's economic struggle of course we had evergrand uh big chinese real estate commercial real estate company uh declare bankruptcy as well uh just this last week right yeah and ready over a quarter of china's gdp is from the real estate market.

Oh, wow. Yeah. Wow. So the thing was artificially propped up. And as you mentioned, we have a spotlight on China's economic. There's one article after another detailing what's going on. Again, we call it as it is. We don't take positions on anything.

We give you the facts, and here's the analysis this thing is going down big and and uh just when we were coming on the air there was an article that just came out about uh powell where are you oh they're in uh jackson hole what a whole dessert they're in a hole all right they're gonna put us in a hole in the ground too i don't know if it's jackson's hole or somebody else's yeah oh jackson a whole lot of crap you know the um anyway they're talking now about keeping interest rates higher that's what just came out. So this is very important, very simple. You don't have to be a brilliant economist to figure this out. The markets are going to continue to crash if they raise interest rates. Simple math. You can now get over 5% on some treasuries and money market funds.

Guaranteed. No risk. So why should I gamble in the stock markets or with IPOs, initial public offerings, when I'm guaranteed over 5% on my investment? Why should I gamble? The money is going to keep pouring out of the stock markets and going into money market funds and treasuries. And now you're looking at mortgage rates at 7.5 percent yeah and they're saying they're on their way to eight right yeah and so has he said anything today because you know you had the bricks that met this week and there wasn't any bricks currency that came out there'd been rumors that that would happen even that it would be tied to gold but

that didn't happen uh but i guess they scheduled their Federal Reserve meeting in Jackson Hole to respond to that. But you've got, in trends general, central banks are fostering an extinction level event as part of this continually raising rates, right? Yep. And I'm telling you, we are going to go into the worst socioeconomic and geopolitical crisis in world history. As I say, and when all else fails,

they take you to war. So let's go back to the high interest rates. There's over $1.2 trillion in commercial real estate debt coming up soon. A lot of this is floating loans. Your office in Philadelphia, your office occupancy rate, people going back to the offices, is at 40%. It's down 60% from pre-COVID.

Wow. According to Scope Technologies, three months ago, 49% of the companies, big corporations, demanded that people come back to work full-time. So you mean 50% are saying you don't have to come back full-time? So now we need less office space because we don't have people coming in all the time. Now, you know what that number is?

40%, according to Scoop. Wow. 40% of the major corporations, you don't have to come in all the time. So now I don't need all this office space. You're going to start seeing defaults on loans that are going to bring back, bring down the banking system like we've never seen before. Yeah, I agree. And we've had a re-rating of a lot of the regional banks because you pointed out many times before, it's not just the fact that know, the fact that, that you have this vacancy rate,

uh, that is hurting the commercial real estate. They can't rent the stuff out and make any money on it, but now, uh, they're expensive holding that is going up, as you pointed out many times, because a lot of them are in variable rate, uh, loans. Yep. They're floating loans and the, and the, and they're going way up, but, and, and this is global by the way, over there this is global, by the way. Over there in the UK,

I was thinking, you've got the U and the K, I think you're going to need an F and a C thrown in there someplace too when you're calling a country what it has become. A place called Canary Wharf? HSBC exited a little while ago. This commercial real estate bust, it's global. People are not going to be going back to work full time.

And you cannot convert these offices that have been built in the last 50 years to housing. According to the data, not according to me. Because they're stupid, ugly pieces of crap that they built out of these steel structures with huge floors and glass. Once upon a time, they used to build things with rooms in them and windows and bathrooms they're not like that anymore it's crap building so they can't convert them oh and then and then look at the implications isn't it great to go take a yeah what was that song um i i left my heart in san what was i in san francisco yeah yeah tony bennett who just died yeah yeah yeah san francisco yeah that the geeks turned into a crime syndicate because they were the first to lock down everything yeah and now oh do you see the videos of these gangs going in and stealing all this stuff in Nordstrom?

And one company after another closing down in the city? Oh, it'll come back. Remember they used to say that when they first closed down? It'll come back. The geeks caused this in America. They were the first ones to close down. Wrote about it in the Trends Journal like I Dorsey, the Dorsey guy with Twitter. Supposed to go to South Africa in February of 2020.

Canceled the trip. Told everybody to stay home. After he did it, Facebook, Google, all the tech companies, go home, go home, go home. Our business will boom because people won't be going out and they'll be buying everything online. They were the ones that destroyed this country. When the COVID hit the United States, again, wrote it in detail, it hit Kirkland, Washington. Kirkland, Washington. What's a Kirkland, Washington? Why should I know about that place? Oh, you mean it hit elder care homes and was killing older people with preexisting comorbidities that were ready to die anyway? washington why should i know about that place oh you mean it hit elder care homes it was killing

older people with pre-existing comorbidities that were ready to die anyway yeah yeah that's the way they run it uh it's um as you point out when everything fails they're going to take us to war and as we've looked at this and they keep pushing this 2030 agenda it aligns in terms of timing with the fourth turning. And I've said many times, I fear that we're going to have not just a world war, but we're going to have a civil war and all the rest of the stuff all at the same time. And in pretty much every country, I think, because people see what is being done to them. We got people, I talked to the first part of the broadcast. I talked about how Sadiq Khan is putting up cameras everywhere in London, just covering the place with cameras, and people are cutting them down.

You've got one area where they've cut down 90% of them, another area they've taken down 80% of them. But he wants to charge people $15 a day if you move your car, if it is not fully electric, get hit with 15 dollars i mean there really are setting up a civil war here i think in america a big part of it is going to be back and forth around trump uh regardless of how this election goes and i don't think he's i don't think he's got the popularity to win a given a general election i think he can easily win uh the um uh the primary at this point in time.

We'll see what happens. They're six months away before they start. But in terms of a general election, I don't think that he's going to win that. And when he doesn't win it, they're all going to say, well, it was rigged. It was stolen. It's going to be pushing towards a civil war there as well, I think, don't you? No, you're right. He will get the nomination if he runs.

But again, you have to look at the data. All they do is say if Biden versus Trump, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, Trump would win or this or that. People don't want either of them. That's right. That's right. The data's there.

So, and as far as civil war, you're right. Again, one of your top trends for 2020, we do those in December for the year ahead. So right before the COVID war, one of our top trends for 2020 was new world disorder. There were protests going on all over the world before coveted in in france with the yellow vests yeah in algeria in south africa in india in peru in bolivia in chile all over the world people were taking to the streets in protest of lack of basic living standards, government corruption, crime, and violence. COVID war happens.

You can't go out in the streets and protest anymore. Get back in your house. That's what stopped. And now it's ramping up again and you're talking about the yellow vest in france and of course that was about these restrictive climate based restrictions on cars and and transportation and things like that i've said that for the longest time gerald i call it a mcguffin because alfred hitchcock said well you know the mcguffin is whatever motivates the characters. And so he was pressed for a definition of it. He said, well, the story is a guy gets on the train and the guy says, what's that? And he goes, that's a MacGuffin.

What's a MacGuffin? Well, that's for hunting lions on the Scottish Highlands. And he said, there aren't any lions on the Scottish Highlands. He says, well, then that's not a MacGuffin. So if you see through it and you see that there isn't any climate change, if you see that there isn't any pandemic, it doesn't work. But if they can get everybody going on this thing, they can use one crisis after the other, and that's what they've done. And they always use these crises for the same things, to get control of us, to surveil us, to take things away from us,

give them to themselves. It's always the same end thing, but they keep coming up with these different things and they're going to come back to them, as you point out. They're going to come back with a vengeance as people start to realize, well, this one didn't work. Well, now we're going to come up with another one, or now we may make it actually real, or now we may actually give you a civil war out of all this chaos. And you're right. You know, when you look at what is happening in, in, um, California,

it's a lot of the chaos from these Soros district attorneys who want to have this kind of chaos. You know, they're going into a lot of the big stores and even the big stores can't handle it. Uh, when they were had that big mob that was going through Nordstrom, they had a mob that,

uh, hit, uh, three taco stands earlier. I mean, that's not a big bit. That's a very very small business but they can put everybody out of business with just rampant unpunished crime like

that and that's by design i think isn't it i don't know if it's by design i think it's by i mean this crap's been going on for centuries yeah but i mean they put in that law that said if you steal more less than a thousand, it's a misdemeanor. I know, but I'm just saying we have maniacs running our lives. What's your favorite war, the Peloponnesian War? How about the Hundred Year War? The War of Roses was just gloriously beautiful. I mean, this crap has been going on.

I mean, think about the Civil War. You think things are bad now? Oh, yeah. The Civil War brought to you by a lying piece of crap like Lincoln. Mm-hmm. You read that book by, what's his name, DiLorenzo? I've read that book, yes. Yeah.

Excellent. Had nothing to do with slavery. Mm-hmm. I know. Lincoln was pro-slavery. Yeah. He changed his line. It was unionization

that's all it was about and it was about the south taking manufacturing away from the north yeah yeah it was interesting I enjoy used to when I had more time I would read alternative history and there was a guy named Harry Turtledove one of his alternative history books uh how few remain and and it's predicated on the idea that, uh, at one point, you know, early in the civil war, Lee hands, um, some battle plans to, uh, uh, uh, a guy or somebody down the line and the guy drops it on the ground and it fell into enemy hands. And that turned the tide of that battle and many other things.

And so in this particular idea the idea is the guy says oh wait you dropped the order oh well i'm sure glad that didn't happen falling into enemy hands and so then what they did was he followed in his alternative history all these different characters who did not die in the war and um so you know you've got stonewall jackson who survives and jeb stewart and all the rest of the stuff. Abraham Lincoln and his alternative history, they lose the war and he is thoroughly discredited. But then he reinvents himself a couple of decades later as a socialist. And I thought he got that spot on. That's exactly what would have happened, you know, because he understood where Lincoln

was coming from as well. So that was really funny. Yeah. Again, they destroyed the South. All the beautiful buildings. Yeah. It kills hundreds. But the numbers I've heard up to 700,000 people died. Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm. 700,000 people. And this is when America is a tiny country. Yeah. When you normalize that out, you know, in terms of population, we're talking about something like, you know, 25, 30 million people today dying with that. You know, that kind of civil war. And that may be what they wind up doing.

They're playing a lot of different angles. Any of these things could explode into a civil war like that, as well as a world war. And think about it. One little freak did it. One little freak did it. That's right. So I'm saying what's going on now it's it's the it's the evilness of individuals

again you don't ask a murderer why you murdered somebody rather than mine they're murderers you know people say to me oh cilenti you know you said we don't like your language oh i should be like obama qaddafi has to go we have to bring freedom and democracy there so we're going to slaughter the god no no we're not going to slaughter them we've got to use other languages let me see what i can do we're going to destroy the country we're going to make sure that it's totally ruined and the same with a side oh i'm the Nobel Peace of Crap Prize winner. I'll get elected president. I'll lie my way into office as a peace candidate.

And soon as I get in, they'll give me the Nobel Peace of Crap Prize. And then I'll have the troop surge in Afghanistan. But you got to say it properly because Obama folks folks folks always folking us folks yeah yeah but when you get angry oh we don't like you when you're angry we like to swallow the crap coming out of the mouth of thatless little boys and girls we're americans we have no fight in us matter of fact get your testicles cut off get your breasts cut off do whatever you want to do yeah especially the kids they're the ones coming after yeah you know it was hillary who said we came uh we saw and he died and that type of thing trump had a moment like that with his little sycophant, Tucker Carlson. He was

talking about all the people that he successfully, you know, Tucker asked him, well, how do you keep the FBI and the CIA in control? He goes, well, I kept the FBI in control. I fired him. Tucker doesn't say, well, why didn't you fire Fauci? But he says, and then with the CIA, he goes, we had some really good people in the CIA. And he starts listing all the people that, you know, we killed with this. And so he goes, and so then Tucker says, so, so the CIA killed those people. And he goes, well, well, we did, we did. I did. You know, he wants to take credit for it.

I mean, he has no conscience whatsoever about this. I got a comment. Narcissistic clown. I got a comment here on rumble. Obslite man, 1776 says Trump wanted it stolen so he could come back as a hero. I agree. And I've got a comment here from Geesebusters. Thank you very much for that.

I appreciate the tip. He says, Gerald, it's good to hate evil. Keep up the good work. The Trends Journal was great this week. I loved it. So he's a subscriber, Gerald. So anyway, when we look at this. And again, anybody that they subscribe to you,

wagner guy and whether or not he was assassinated whether or not he survived i mean that's what most of them are talking about they're talking about that in these sham debates you know did pergozan with wagner was he shot down by uh by putin or did they blow his plane up or was he on another plane that's that's what they focus on it It is a distraction, isn't it? Yep. You know, this just came up. We were talking about COVID and the jabs and everything. This is from your Trends Journal on August 11th. COVID alert. Prestitutes are selling more fear and hysteria.

The irony of our times, this was the letter to subscribers can be truly staggering. If it wasn't so sick, it'd be funny. Last week, the New York times, which we refer to, which we refer to as the toilet paper record highlighted the rising COVID cases in New York.

They cited epidemiologists who said, you ready? Scorching heat waves that kept many people indoors where respiratory viruses spread more easily contributed to the rise of transmissions. Wait a minute. Then we write, yet in april 2020 you ready for this 97 percent of americans and billions of people throughout the world were forced by their politicians to stay inside where quote respiratory viruses spread more easily adding insult to injury children couldn't go to parks no one was allowed to go to the beach ride a bike play a sport

go for a walk etc and then we say don't hold your breath for accountability that's right that's the key all these little clowns all these arrogant gavin newsoms andy cuomo's witness whitmere the wine get in your house that little arrogant slob of a jerk. Warren Wilhelm Jr., the mayor of New York. No, your real name. Oh, it's de Blasio. I forgot. You changed your name so you get the Italian-American vote. That was that slob's real name who closed down New York City.

Get in your house. You can't go to the beach. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait, what was de Blasio's name? Wait a minute, a minute wait what was the wise man it says over here according to the new york times who sold the covid war that respiratory viruses spread more easily indoors and you're forcing everybody to go into their houses. Yeah. But nobody talks

about what I just said. No one anywhere. That's right. No one anywhere has called them out for writing this and lying to us the way they did. They ruined this COVID war has

in my lifetimes three things after the Vietnam War destroyed this country. First was brought to you by Fauci with the AIDS scare. Mm-hmm. Number two, the war on terror.

It used to be fun to fly. Now you get felt up by jerks. Yeah. With the bull crap of the shoe bomber. Yeah, that was a gut out of here with your crap. What are you talking about? Look at, look, look. Oh, you didn't have Homeland Security before.

We didn't have them spying us on everywhere. Look, oh, then, oh, and the Afghan war. I forgot about that. Yeah, the war on terror, the Iraq war. And thirdly, the COVID war. This damage and the Afghan war. I forgot about that. Yeah, the war on terror, the Iraq war. And thirdly, the COVID war. This damage of this COVID war, again, we talked about the rise in crime, which we warned about would happen when people lose everything and have nothing left to lose, they lose it.

The kids going out of their mind, not going back to school. The suicide rates, the drug increase, drug addiction increases, fentanyl, boom. Businesses that have gone out of business, the office building bust that's going to destroy the banking system. Yes. Yes. What we're talking about, you don't hear in detail of one element after another that's going to bring this thing down again this woman who wrote said i have three kids she said i don't know if you have any you know i never had any and one of the reasons why one time my mother made she rest in peace is chasing me around the house and finally she caught me in italian women they never hit their kids used

to bite their hand and in italian she said to me such a million more as i said matter of fact it's something like without using the proper language these little sob you're better off dead you should have three worse than you and i couldn't imagine like me so i never had it i was the youngest of five, born in 1946 in the Bronx at the height of America. When America was free, we just won the war. And you were a person to be free. Not anymore. You can't be free.

You do what I tell you to do. If you don't swallow my crap, it's misinformation. That's right. Yeah, you know, I played a clip, uh, just yesterday of Fauci and you, you can still recognize him. Uh, but it went back to the eighties and had dark hair, more hair and everything, but still selling the same lies. Gerald, he was telling people at the time, well, if somebody has got AIDS, uh, you, you can get it by being close to them, you know, keep your distance, that type of thing, right?

It's not spread by sexual contact or by needles, he said. It's by being close to somebody. And always lying to us about this stuff, always. And, of course, the PCR test was a big part of that lie, and he was called on it by the guy who'd won a Nobel Prize for developing it. And they ran this thing out after just a couple of months after Cary Mullis, who had fought him about the PCR test after he died. Because we know what Cary Mullis would have done to destroy this whole PCR illusion of cases everywhere.

It truly is amazing. You're talking about TSA, too, how it destroyed this country. I think back to the parody movie American Carol, and they parodied these people going to the airport and have to keep stripping down. Well, I got to take my shoes off because of the shoe bomber and this stuff. And they had not had the underwear bomber yet, and they didn't have the body scans and the pat-downs

and all the rest of this stuff. And this movie is a joke because they're like the Babylon Bee, right? And everybody has to strip down in order to get on the plane, take off all their clothes. And yet, that is really the world in which we now live. It's just like Babylon Bee. As much as you try to parody and ridicule the absurdity of this stuff, in just a couple of weeks or months, they'll do it for real.

It's amazing. I know. And it's right in front of our eyes yeah yeah it's right in front of our eyes and again again as i say where where where are all the peace movements nobody talks about peace nobody talks about it we're all we're as i say we're the seventh day adventists they're waiting for the eighth day with all the quakers dying an earthquake well we're all the catholics we're all the episcopalians we're all the the the baptists we're all the jews we're all the muslims we're all you religious where where are you where are theants. Why aren't the Protestants protesting, right? Yeah.

I was a speaker at the Humanity for Peace rally a couple of weeks ago in the United Nations. Fewer people showed up there than my rallies that we have up here in Kingston, in New York city, humanity for peace about Hiroshima, Nakasaki. And we have to stop almost people don't care. That's right.

They, again, like I said, what's your favorite war? Hey, how about I'm a Yankee doodle dandy, a Yankee doodle do or die. How stupid can you be? Yankee doodle do or die. How stupid can you be?

Yankee doodle do or die. What? For World War I, you had no business getting in, brought to you by a murderous, freaky creep, Woodrow Wilson, who gave us the Federal Reserve, federal income tax, the war, the IRS. And you believe this crap? Yeah. Yeah.

As a matter of fact, it came out this week. They had a State Department official say, the reason that this counteroffensive has failed is because the Ukrainians were too casualty-averse. It's like, what? You mean they don't want to go out there and die for you and for your political agenda? They're casualty-averse?

And what a riot. I keep reading that American generals and all the intelligence giving them advice. You haven't won a war since World War II. You're a bunch of losers. You couldn't win in Afghanistan. You couldn't win in Iraq. You lost Vietnam't beat you couldn't win in iraq you lost vietnam but you only killed 3.5 million people and about 60 000 americans about 300 000 wounded and another couple

of million with their minds ruined from fighting for nothing and killing innocent people. And now you're giving advice on how to win. Yeah. It's like a last place team coach telling how to win the world series. I agree. Yeah. When you look at, you talk about losers, you know,

one of the things they've lost track of is the cluster bombs already. They said, we'll keep track of where we put these cluster bombs because, you know, a large percentage of them, or it's actually the older ones that we've sent them are 14 times more likely to turn into landmines with duds. They call them duds. They don't blow up until a kid plays with them or somebody steps on them later.

But we've got a restriction that you can't send these things out if they've got a dud rate of more than 1%, these that we sent them have a dud rate of 14%. And so to mitigate that, they said, well, you're going to keep track of where you're shooting these things, right? So we can go back and pick them up someday. They're not keeping any, right. They just admit, oh, we don't know. We're not keeping any, we don't care about any of this stuff, right? I mean, they're poisoning that land.

They're poisoning that land with depleted uranium and with cluster bombs and everything. They're poisoning the earth. Yeah, poisoning that land with depleted uranium and with cluster bombs. They're poisoning the earth. Yeah, exactly. You're worried about climate change? Yeah, exactly. They've changed the climate of Ukraine. You read from this North Korean defense guy we wrote about in the Trans Journal. He said, it's not a matter of if a nuclear war is going to happen.

It's a matter of when a nuclear if a nuclear war is going to happen it's a matter of when we got maniacs in charge and just switching into another maniac year this is what i wanted to read before i was looking for it stocks fall after powell says fed could he keep hiking rates traders watch the television broadcast jerome powell chairman of of the US Federal Reserve, announcing an increase in the Federal Reserve interest rate on the floor of the New York by blah, blah, blah. Now the stocks fell Friday as the traders digested Federal Reserve Chairman Powell's Jackson Hole speech. So this is Powell.

This is the clown boy that said there was no inflation it was only transitory you're full of crap cilenti there's no inflation your magazine doesn't know what it's talking about inflation's only transitory then it became it's only temporary him and that other fachar brut janet yellen inflation, only temporary and transitory. They didn't start raising interest rates until last March, and then they jacked them up too quick. They created this crisis by fighting the COVID war, dumping trillions of dollars of worthless money into the system.

You don't have to go to work. Here's money. Hey, play the stock market. Lowering interest rates. Buy a house. Go on. Everything should have crashed when they launched the COVID war. And they artificially propped it up, and now the busters come in big.

That's right. And, of course, giving everybody stimulus checks, that was training for universal basic income. Giving everybody you've got to get a vaccine and a vaccine passport. That was training for a global ID. All of this was training and it's not done. And when you look at it and you look at, you know, you got Biden and you got Trump. And both of these guys look at what they did in their first term. And now the likeliness likelihood is that we're going to have one of these two

clowns for a second term or people of that ilk, because who knows how long Biden's going to make it. I mean, he's walking dead in Washington. They're talking about that arrogant clown, that Gavin Newsom. You can't get more arrogant than that little boy. Hey, my daddy, don't you talk to me like that. Don't you know who my daddy was? My daddy worked for the Giddy Oil Company.

He was a law employer. Oh, like that other little clown boy blinken the little murderous blinken boy it's our secretary of state i went to dalton i went to harvard don't you know my daddy was you're nothing all of us people are nothing more than plantation workers of slavelandia yeah you listen to the people on top like like little Andy Cuomo. My daddy was Mario renaming the Tappan Zee bridge after him. It's only going to cost you $30 million. Yeah. That's amazing. I call, uh, uh, Gavin Newsom. I call him grabbing nuisance, uh, because he's grabbing everything in sight.

And he's a, one of the biggest nuisances that we've gotten in as an elected official anywhere in the country. Yeah. He is positioning himself. You know, that's one of the reasons why he's got, when he perceived a DeSantis is,

uh, you know, a real threat to Trump, you know, he's, uh, you know, going after DeSantis,

DeSantis. And, uh, but he is, um, he's out there, he's positioning himself. He's waiting quietly in the wings.

He's very clever, very dangerous. Very dangerous. Yeah, very dangerous person. The lying little boy that went to the French laundry when he locked down everybody? That one? Yeah. That destroyed California?

Oh, you know your office vacancy rate is in San Francisco? What's that? 27%. Vacant. Vacant. Of the top 10 cities, your vacancy rate, 20%. Wow. 20%.

This office building bust, it's going to be the crash heard around the world. That's right. Yeah. You can't stay in business if they, if they chop off a 20, 30%. That's what we were talking about with all the small businesses that Trump was locking down Trump and Fauci, you know, or you can open up a like maybe one day a week or something like that, or cut down your hours or cut down your occupancy, you know?

So maybe we'll let you open up for a half of the people, half of your restaurant or cut down your occupancy, you know? Uh, so maybe we'll let you open up for, uh, half of the people, half of your restaurant or something like that. You can't stay in business that way. And yet the commercial real estate, as you point out, they don't just have that. They're going to have much higher costs because of the variable rate interest. So yeah, it's going to go down. We've now had two of the big three rating agencies have now D rated businesses.
