[amarynth]

Dugin? has gone nuts. A total Trumper, hanging onto the western schtick. The west drives everything and it is all a game.

[Mr P]

People cling to all sorts of ideas. Though I do think the west will be shocked, I don’t think it will have any good effect. Dugin never makes sense to me. I tried to understand his Fourth Political Theory, alas, I could not. Frankly speaking, I wonder if the Kremlin is naive. Sometimes I suspect that Molotov and Stalin had a better understanding of the character of westzone. And I suspect that westzone is dangerously unstable, and shocking it is probably a bad idea….one that will happen.

[emersonreturn]

i’m not sure the kremlin is naive, esp. about dugin.     i haven’t bookmarked any but there have been videos of dugin appearing with surprising people, in surprising places, i’ve never been interested enough to follow the crumbs.  like you, Mr P, he leaves me colder than i like.  but if i’ve bumbled across them i can’t help but think the kremlin knows all about them.

These two article, especially the technical one, are worth noting. The subject having to do with heat engines and the thermodynamic characteristics of fluids… Without some background in highschool math and basic engineering principles it may not make much sense. I suggest the technical paper be saved to your files for the future. Everybody can gain some knowledge from reading them.

What Are Supercritical CO2 Power Cycles?….https://www.powermag.com/what-are-supercritical-co2-power-cycles/   It may be helpful to refer to wikipedia for definitions of the several cycles spoken of.

For reference, I note that large stationary and marine diesel engines can be in the realm of 50% efficient, windmills something less than 60%, gasoline engines in the realm of 30 or 40%… Of course in power generation for electrical stations there are parasitic losses and efficiencies less than 100% in generator and transformers and transmission lines….withal power systems are pretty lossy. It’s often better to simply chop your own wood…

Russian Warships helped the Venezuelan Fleet deliver a Crushing Blow to the US in the Caribbean Sea – It is unclear to me if this victory at sea has to do with my post above…. Davi!

Evidently the big tanker taken a few days ago had a Russian crew… And also evidently somebody, a Chinese and/or a Russian somebody, made it clear to the US that any funny business could result in a very bloody nose, as they say.  As I put it, (approximately)”we’d really hate to sink your carrier, but, well, you know how things go…”

Propaganda to create “consent” for expanding the Tanker War. to Europe and probably global realm...and probably to expand the target-listed ship types from tankers to cargo freighters...https://youtu.be/sxPDgiCtQS4……”Western and Ukrainian intelligence agencies warn that Russia’s sanctions-evading “shadow fleet” of oil tankers is being used for covert surveillance across European waters. According to intelligence shared with CNN, vessels disguised as commercial tankers are carrying personnel linked to Russian military and security services. Some crew members are tied to Moran Security, a firm sanctioned by the US in 2024 and linked to Russia’s intelligence apparatus and the Wagner Group. European officials fear the ships may collect intelligence, photograph military sites, or prepare sabotage, signaling a shift toward hybrid warfare at sea.”

Can, please, anyone confirm or disconfirm the claim that Lavrov and Weidel have met today in Berlin.

I see only one claim, which may be fiction> Lawrov TRIFFT Weidel in Berlin! DAMIT HAT NIEMAND GERECHNET! – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=my8do1ZPZDA

Due to our weather my connection is poor, or maybe it’s not the weather…

[amarynth]

I have seen no footage of Lavrov leaving Africa – Cairo. The joint statement was read last evening – Russia-Africa Ministerial. Lavrov made a speech last evening, Cairo Time. Unless in the middle of the night, I don’t see it. And I don’t think Lavrov will land in Germany. That is what I know.

Anyway, looking through the various reports, I have no clue where Lavrov is.

Thanks, I’m pretty sure it’s fictitious. In the fullness of time it may, like a fairy tale, come true.

Got Secrets!   😉   Going Underground, we speak to Prof. Richard Spence, Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Idaho. He discusses what is and what defines a society and the importance it has on elite decision making, the origins of the infamous Bohemian Grove and the influence it has had over Western politics, the Bilderberg Group and the who’s who of important members and the vetting of future holders of political office, the Trilateral Commission and its role as the elite foreign policy secret society, the Western hostility against Russia dating back to the Middle Ages and the role of secret societies in enforcing it, the efforts to bring back in some form the Roman Empire, the origins of Jeffrey Epstein and how he rose into the highest circles of elite power, the risk to Donald Trump’s life for going against these elite circles, and much more.

Interesting the choice of topic…revealing the direction of conflict…Note the poster behind Spence!

translation…MI6 intends to start a war…hey! it worked before!

‘… while ago, I read one of the underlying papers when they were developing the strategy, and it was very clearly saying we want to have a way to go after people who have not committed a crime, NOT committed a crime. The idea is to deliberately punish people who have not committed a crime and do it without any legal process. This is absolutely scandalous. I think many people can be affected by this. Many many many people.”

 

[Mr P]

Ahemtink the zionist influence contributes to the tensions and contradictions. Possibly, this relates to the grand strategy of Rus…play along with the zionists, the nazis, feed the machine, until it explodes itself by internal strife? Ahdunno… Does look like, whether by calculation or accident, this is happening. I dispute “civil war” as it is a vague and ambiguous term, preferring “strife”.

fragment> “When Trump announced a $300 million ballroom at the White House, something went off in my brain. The pattern recognition part started tingling. Ninety thousand square feet, $300 million, underground construction at a secure government facility. I had heard about something like this before. Something with those exact specifications, that scale, that price point.

It took me a minute to place it, but then I remembered: Oracle’s underground data centers in Jerusalem. Built in 2021 for Israeli military intelligence. Nine stories into bedrock, designed to survive missile strikes, built to house AI systems that make life-and-death decisions in real time. Ninety thousand square feet. $319 million. Nearly identical specs to what Trump just announced.

That’s the moment I started digging….”

That is true and very close to home.  We have a very good friend of the site whose account disappeared just a short while ago.  Nothing so far has helped to restore it.  Of course they don’t say why, they just make stupid noises.  I had some chat with Pepe and he has hardened himself as well with having to go to Europe so every now and again.  It is a tricky thing.  Does anyone remember Dr Reiner Fuelmich .. the covid attorney?  There is an update on his state on Strategic culture … https://strategic-culture.su/news/2025/12/23/the-vindication-and-brutal-punishment-of-dr-reiner-fuellmich/

Yes, I’ve kept an eye on the Fuelmich persecution. No less we see in der glorreichen demokratischen Heimat. I met a builder fella who said he was “de-banked”…and we chatted, last Summer. So it’s a rising tactic…which reminds me, raised in the backwash of the Red Hunt and the war…reminds me of a video-poem, and the principle of making things and people disappear, like books…or anybody they fear or don’t like…I see to-day, btw, that the Fuhrer, the corpulent guy, designs to build camps for 80,000 people….well, it has to start small, doanit?…  Ernst Busch – Denn ihr seid dumm! …a bout 4 1/2 minutes…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRBqUYOXjxc&list=RDbRBqUYOXjxc&start_radio=1

This term “sanction” seems to me about the same as attainder. As such it obviously exceeds the power of decree in the US, and is specifically prohibited to Congress. Of course, that’s just a legal view…they can do it, and they do, the basic US laws notwithstanding. Whether or not it’s legal in the freedom-loving democratic Germany… ahjusdoanknow.

Great! Yes, highly respectable fellow. BTW fwiw I agree with him, though it brings sadness. The Europe, and the America too, are gone. The penalty we pay for memory and age.

I remember that Bush 41 in office in discussion at zone White House Office, was reminded of the promise not to move NATO east… he replied, iirc: “Hell No! We got’m and now we’re gunna phuck ’em!” Words to that effect… From memory, from long ago. And probably imprecise. But he established the Policy, or let’s say the people wot brung ‘im.

Imperial Navy lowers standards, again… “Navy made an all-out push to make it easier and faster to sign up and enlist. The service tripled the number of office staff assigned to perform medical waiver reviews, and it sped up operations at regional testing stations. It reduced its minimum acceptable score on the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) to the lowest level allowable by law, and increased the maximum recruit age to 41, the oldest it can accept without permission from Congress. It also opened a remedial program for applicants who do not meet minimum requirements at the time of first contact with a recruiter. ”  Report: U.S. Navy Exceeded Limits for Underperforming Recruits  ……..see…https://maritime-executive.com/article/report-u-s-navy-exceeded-limits-for-underperforming-recruits

“Exceeding enlistments of [low-scoring] recruits, who . . . tend to exhibit below-average trainability and on-the-job performance, without the awareness and approval of the Department’s leadership, could create unanticipated quality gaps in the fleet, degrading the Navy’s overall readiness and lethality,” the OIG wrote.

……….…….Not stupid cunning Commies…. China Plans to Build Nine Aircraft Carriers…

It’s not fair!

fragment> China’s naval aspirations are more ambitious than previously understood, according to the Pentagon’s annual assessment of the People’s Liberation Army. The Chinese PLA Navy is already the largest naval force in the world by vessel count, and modernizing at breakneck speed – but this is not enough, according to the report. China plans to expand its carrier force to a total of nine vessels by 2035, enough to compete for sea control in the Western Pacific.

fragment> China’s growing force of combatant vessels would be only one component of its resources for a much-anticipated conflict in the Western Pacific. The PLA Rocket Force fields multiple classes of antiship ballistic missiles, in quantity, designed to strike American carriers as far away as Guam. China’s PLA Air Force has begun testing a long-range “sixth-generation” stealth fighter, according to the Pentagon – likely a reference to the tailless, three-engine jet spotted in December 2024. And a new model of PLA early-warning aircraft will give Chinese forces a technological edge for detecting and targeting American fighters, the Pentagon warned.

The Grand Golden Fleet’s prices just went sky-high…China’s going to embargo, er, “not sell” steel to imperialist running dogs…or so it seems… video in German with english available as subtitles…Steel is about as fundamental a material as can be…without cheap steel it’s p’rtnear sticks an’ stones.

HaraldInChina@HaraldInChina2 hours ago

China update: China is about to add steel into the list of regulated export goods. Starting January 1, raw steel can only be exported, if the export gets a government approval. For now, no restrictions have been published, so it’s a mere bureaucratic step. But it will allow the government to learn more about who China sells steel to.
We all know that China produces more steel than the rest of the world combined, and that steel – despite all drones and whatnot – is still the core material of war. You bet the US won’t get steel anymore, if they meddle too deep in the Taiwanese military and politics. China is now systematically laying the ground work, not just to cut the US off, but also to keep trade with the global South going, once they have to cut off the US.

Recalling our Austrian hippy “Survival Lilly” who spoke about Italy taxing gold, including inherited jewelry… I note this ” January 1, 2026, a new “Triplex Tax” will hit investors and savers across Washington [State]. The repeal of the 1985 bullion exemption means gold and silver will now be taxed at purchase, transfer, and even at inheritance.” see, example…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zrq-qYNx0UA    This raises a question…Citizen resident of Wa State, John the Miser, goes to another jurisdiction and buys… So? Interstate commerce is the purview of the Federal Government…the Constitution will be ignored. Obviously the “enforcement” finks will spy on people that buy gold elsewhere. California already does this with respect to ammunition, using license-plate readers and cameras…. and arresting persons who bring ammunition into California. (ammunition is prohibited in Calif, except by a permit and a “excise” tax.)  One supposes that Custom Houses will appear at the State borders. Withal, the trend is toward fragmentation of the Great Federal Republic…

Larry “Gunner” Johnson offers an essay, the primary assumption of which I can’t agree with….as most people I meet do not hate any country, they’re just dealing with their private lives and so forth. Anyway, Larry’s written: “Why Does the West Hate Russia?” – by Larry C Johnson  I will concede that powerful rich nazi fear Russia…but that’s not the same thing, is it? see> https://larrycjohnson.substack[dot]com/p/why-does-the-west-hate-russia?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email&triedRedirect=true  He includes some videos. Here’s his opening paragraph> “If you don’t do anything else this weekend while recovering from your Christmas hangover, please find the time to read, Jeffery Sachs: Two Centuries of Russophobia & Rejection of Peace, which is posted at Consortium News. Professor Sachs provides a compelling exegesis of the history of Russia vs. Europe that shows that the roots of Western hatred of Russia have little to do with Russian misdeeds or provocations.” Larry builds on Sachs, of course.

Steve Brown at Locals expresses some thoughts about the Imperial Economy and what the nazi cabal may do about the money problems….

He begins> “Just a hunch that when traders of the Evil Empire return to work Monday they will discuss how to put the kaibosh on the precious metals market — most likely with increased margin requirements again. That’s the only tactic the Bank of Big knows, beside forcing ‘liquidate only’ trades in the futures market.” Then goes on in some detail, with a charming idea at his conclusion! See below… He goes on, (fragment)

  “Dark Powers of the PM cartel in London and on Wall Street are in a bit of a pickle, and probably cannot operate as they once did to suppress the market. Then again, these people have tremendous resources and capability. It will be interesting to see what rabbit the masters of deception pull out of a hat this time, to crash PM’s and “save” a fiat currency where $1 US will barely purchase a single bog roll…”

And his final two stimulatin’ paragraphs...

“Even so, the Fed-Treasury has engaged in QE by creating $45B every month in increasingly worthless fiat — an act of currency debasement that is unprecedented (in US history at least) and precarious for the western monetary system. As such, the Trump regime will likely engage in some sort of fiscal/monetary sleight-of-hand next year. For example revaluing the US “bitcoin reserve” — which is just federally-seized bitcoin. (Based on crime which is bitcoin’s most valid use case.)

Another example could be mark-to-market of US gold reserves, presently at $42.22 USD per ounce, as Treasury gold has been valued (by the Treasury) since 1973. Whatever the case, the people who rule us are greedy and evil. And for sure they will come up with something equally greedy and evil simply to save their own hide, which cannot resist fate and manipulate the reality of consequence forever.  (my bold) Recall the topic Agent Hal – raisin’ paniky idears…

“US naval forces still chasing Venezuela-linked tanker Bella 1”
https://en.mehrnews.com/news/240188/US-still-unable-to-seize-Venezuela-linked-tanker-Bella-1
“Venezuela-linked tanker is still being chased by U.S. authorities in Caribbean waters, refusing to let Coast Guard crews board as specialized teams move into position for a possible forced seizure.
The vessel, known as Bella 1, keeps moving while cutters and surveillance aircraft take turns shadowing it, Military.com website said in a report Saturday…

[Mr P]

Some say that when you’re being chased by pirates and thieves the best direction to take is toward help… I wonder where the ships are that the pirates do not wish to meet….the chase can become a trap, or a pregnant stand-off. The bride may escape the rape, and the rapists made into eunuchs.

[amarynth]

I’ve seen a number of reports that Bella1 was boarded in the last day or so.  So I really hope the reporting that she is still running, is true.  Mehr news says she is surrounded and under surveillance.  That would also be just fine!  Because another one slips through behind her.

Does silver which closed at record high $79.25 an ounce Saturday, December 27, go on to reach $85, $95, $100 an ounce on bullion markets when these begin to open on Sunday night in Shanghai? Will European leaders break down and plead with Russia to re-open the NordStream pipelines as major European countries freeze and face economic collapse? And finally, will the US states be at war on day four with Venezuela?  https://youtu.be/mCOw3A5iHmA   “US Panics…” Ahem ‘memberin’ that fear and panic are the small helper gods to Mars…

I doubt that Comrade Lavrov wastes words…he speaks from reason, ahbetcha. Note “One more time”   final warning? He repeats:

MOSCOW, December 28. /TASS/. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Moscow has no intention of attacking anyone, but warned European officials that any attack on Russia would draw a crushing response.

“My message for European politicians who seem to have problems getting to grips with this fact – I hope they get to read this interview – is to repeat one more time that there is no need to be afraid of Russia attacking anyone, ” he said in an interview with TASS.

“However, should anyone consider attacking Russia, they would face a devastating blow,” the top diplomat noted, adding that Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly stated it.

………………….

MOSCOW, December 28. /TASS/. Russia will support China in defending its national unity and territorial integrity if the Taiwan conflict flares up, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in an interview with TASS on 2025 results.

“As for the possible escalation in the Taiwan Strait, the procedure for acting in such situations is set forth in the Treaty of Good-Neighbourliness and Friendly Cooperation with the People’s Republic of China of July 16, 2001. One of the basic principles of that document is mutual support in defending national unity and territorial integrity,” the top diplomat noted.  Let’s all sing Solidarity song together…

Imperial wars against Russia, Venezeula ……a charmin’ pair, Comrades Nixon and Brar, ep 51 … ahem recollectin’ when Hillary the Wicked spake to the matter, an’ said “It’s not fair that a few Russians own all that vast land.”…. some say she’s been an assassin…others, like Jeffery the Pimp, say her sadism shocked even him… well, folks say stuff, doandey? So let’s hear from the expert gal all about the imperial lust to devour Russia…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krYXTN-vl6c   …ahemtink Ruski is gettin’ pretty tired of these episodes of insane assault….maybe intends to solve the problem… 😉 Comrade Lavrov said “one more time”…and he almost never lies about important stuff…

It is a mistake to imagine that in an election that offers a choice between a few obedient criminal stooges that the voters are to blame for the criminal behavior of whichever stooge gets elected….picking a bad card from a stacked deck is not the fault of the mark, it’s the method of the magician. Of course the term “election” has a broad meaning…in dire and urgent situations it can even include dis-election via defenestration, followed by election by – er – “direct means”  😉  If one takes the historical examples… ahem. cough cough.

……………… An example of both with spirit and determination….the impeachments and the election by popular means ongoing (these elections take some time, outside interference an’ all that stuff.)
