Paul Craig Roberts and Larry Sparano Discuss the Fight Ahead
This is my interview by Larry Sparano of a few days ago prior to my learning, as I posted yesterday, that the temporary injunctions that judges are issuing against Trump and Musk’s activities in rooting out corruption from the federal budget are only good for a few days and are not effective except in the sense of giving the corrupt elements in the federal departments and agencies a few days to hide, erase, destroy, and “lose” evidence before Musk can get his hands on it.
To be effective in blocking Trump, the hearing on the temporary injunction must succeed in advancing to a preliminary injunction, which is a rare event. If a temporary injunction becomes a preliminary injunction, that is when it enters the appeal process and becomes subject to the long delay of the judicial process. The hearings on the temporary injunctions against Trump and Musk are resulting in the dismissal of the injunctions and are not carrying forward to preliminary injunctions.

The US could move its nascent “New Détente” with Russia further along by either forcing the G7 and UNGA Resolution sponsors to change their language about “Russian aggression” or refusing to attach its name to their respective documents on the third anniversary of the special operation if they don’t.
The Financial Times and Reuters reported that the US Government (USG) respectively refuses to endorse a joint statement from the G7 and a proposed UNGA Resolution that include the phrase “Russian aggression”, instead allegedly proposing more neutral language like the “Ukrainian Conflict”. That would be extremely significant if true since the US wields more political influence across the world than any other country and can therefore herald a sea change in official global opinion by shifting its rhetoric.

If there is gold in Ft. Knox, whose is it?
Many bullion dealers believe that any gold in Ft. Knox is not ours. Over the decades the gold was “leased” to bullion dealers who sold it into the gold market, thereby protecting the value of the dollar by holding down the gold price.
“Leasing” the gold means that the US can still claim to own the gold. A sale has to be recorded or reported, but not a “lease.”
Gold might also have disappeared through rehypothecation, which is the use by one party of another party’s asset to back their own financial or borrowing practices. The gold of other countries is also in Ft. Knox. Earlier this century, Germany requested its gold from Ft. Knox, and was told that the gold would be returned in seven years. This indicates that the gold was used by Washington for some other purpose and was unavailable to be returned to Germany.

It was in May/September 1945 when WWII ended – the bloodiest and most horrible war ever fought in human history. The war that caused the creation of the UNO in 1945 to protect the world from similar events in the future – a pan-global political-security organization that first issued a legal act was a Charter of the UN which inspired the 1948 Geneva Convention’s definition of genocide.
The Nüremberg and Tokyo Trials were organized as “The Last Battles” for justice as the first ever global trials for war criminals and mass murderers including the top-hierarchy statesmen and politicians. However, 80 years after WWII the crucial moral question still needs a satisfactory answer: Are all the WWII war criminals faced justice at the Nüremberg and Tokyo Trials? Or at least those who did not escape from public life after the war. Here we will present only one of those cases from WWII which has to be characterized as the genocide followed by the personalities directly responsible for it: The 1945 Dresden Massacre.
The 1945 Dresden Raid was surely one of the most destructive air raids during WWII but in world history of massive military destruction and war crimes against humanity too.¹ The main and most destructive air raid was during the night of February 13th −14th, by the British Bomber Command when 805 bomber military crafts attacked the city of Dresden which up to that time was protected from similar attacks primarily for two reasons:

What if the so-called 'free market' was never free? What if the all-seeing eye that fuels capitalism was a fist squeezing the economy for the benefit of a select few? Influential stakeholders have manufactured financial catastrophes, created monetary regulations, and monopolized markets while masquerading serious competition and meritocratic society.
From the 19th Century's robber barons to today's trillion-dollar asset magnates such as Vanguard, State Street and BlackRock, power has intentionally not been distributed. This timeline breaks down the masterful scheme of capitalism – how the system has been rigged through market deception, manipulation, regulatory capture, and financial parasitism so that the elite do not just continue getting wealthier but assert complete dominance over the system.
Mike Whitney | Eisen’s relentless legal offensive shows how the law can be turned on its head and used in a way that subverts the will of the people while eroding public confidence in our political system. | Donald Trump was elected on a promise to drain the swamp. But it took Elon Musk to figure out where the swamp was located. As it happens, permanent Washington resides in the vast government agencies that suck trillions of dollars into a black hole pushing the country closer and closer to bankruptcy. Musk pinpointed these out-of-control agencies as the bastion of the overbloated bureaucracy that pose the greatest threat to the survival of the nation. In response, he created the Department Of Government Efficiency or DOGE, the most innovative watchdog agency in US history, comprised entirely of genius-level talent tasked with the job of blitzing-through the ocean of abstruse government data to expose the trillions of dollars in waste, fraud and abuse.
INTRO: NATO’s super-expensive proxy war against Russia has finally run its course, ending in complete and utter failure. Instead of being weakened, Russia is stronger now than when the war started three years ago. This disastrous outcome exposes the insanity of European elites and may result in the obliteration of post-World War II norms in which the U.S. pays for, and if necessary fights, Europe’s wars. European globalist elites are screeching like crazed hyenas over being left out of President Trump’s peace talks seeking an end to the bloody Russia-Ukraine border war. They are so distraught over the prospect that this 3-year-old extremely costly war could be winding down, without their permission, that they’ve called an “emergency meeting” in Paris this week to discuss how they can keep the war going in the absence of further U.S. participation in the killing.
In a disturbing turn of events, the popular social media platform Reddit is now allowing posts that openly call for a repeat of the violent French Revolution within the United States. This move, coming in the early weeks of President Donald Trump's administration, is part of a larger ideological campaign by leftist factions to resist Trump’s policies and leadership. While Big Tech might be moving away from censorship of conservatives, left-wing operatives will be increasingly weaponizing false narratives against Trump and MAGA Republicans, and promoting these narratives in a way that preys on the emotional instabilities of the left, driving left-wing groups to take action and commit acts of violence against conservatives.
US President Donald Trump has escalated a public war of words with his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky by labeling him a “dictator,” warning that he needs to act quickly to secure a peace agreement with Russia or risk losing his country. Trump made the controversial remarks on Wednesday, just a day after he blamed Ukraine for instigating the war with Russia, claiming that it also drew Washington into the three-year conflict. “A Dictator without Elections, Zelensky better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left,” Trump wrote on his social media network Truth Social, raising concerns among European allies that his approach to resolving the conflict may favor Moscow.
Never forget that before he was killed in Ukraine, American journalist Gonzalo Lira laid out exactly how Zelensky was manufactured and funded by Israeli Jewish billionaire Kolomoisky.
RIP Gonzalo

President Donald Trump has praised his administration’s efforts to halt federal approval of New York’s unpopular “congestion tax.” The congestion tax is a toll on automobiles that was implemented one month ago. The New York Post reports that the toll seeks to raise funds for the region’s obsolete mass transport system. Trump’s Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, wrote a letter to New York’s Democrat Governor Kathy Hochul stating that the federal government has control over roadways that lead to Manhattan. Duffy noted that the additional tolls posed an unjust hardship for vehicles who were traveling outside of the city.
X boss Elon Musk has blasted Ukraine’s “despised dictator” Volodymyr Zelensky for attempting to perpetuate his nation’s ongoing war with Russia. Musk accused Zelensky of running a “machine” of fraud that is “feeding off the dead bodies of Ukrainian soldiers.” The tech billionaire’s comments come after the White House revealed President Donald Trump was “very frustrated” with Zelensky. Trump has developed a “personal” problem with the Ukrainian president over Zelensky’s refusal to hold a general election, despite his term expiring last year.
Supporters of the measure claim the international organization undermines American interests. A group of Republican lawmakers has reignited efforts to withdraw the US from the United Nations, claiming that the organization betrays American interests and misallocates taxpayer funds. The US is a founding member of the organization and holds a permanent seat in the Security Council, the body tasked with conflict resolution and peacekeeping. It also hosts the UN headquarters in New York. US Senator Mike Lee introduced a bill on Thursday calling for ties with the UN to be cut, with co-sponsorship from Senators Marsha Blackburn and Rick Scott. A corresponding bill was also presented in the House by Representatives Mike Rogers and Chip Roy.
In a telephone conversation with a number of European diplomats after the US-Russian talks in Riyadh, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio kept open the option of easing some anti-Russian sanctions if Russia begins to take the steps that Washington is seeking, the New York Times reported, citing a summary of the conversation prepared by European officials. "No, he said, the administration would not lift U.S. sanctions on Russia absent a noticeable change in Moscow’s behavior, though he left the door open to easing some sanctions in limited ways if the Russians began taking steps that the administration was seeking," the newspaper wrote.
There’s all sorts of rubbish about me on the internet these days, some of it egregiously out of context, some of it just lies and most of it emanating from Wikipedia, Google and the other garbage distributors controlled by the conspirators. Even tradesmen look at Google and Wikipedia, recognise my name and sneer contemptuously when they see me. Bizarrely, some refuse to do essential repair work for anyone labelled `discredited’. If governments want to remove misinformation and disinformation from the internet they should start by closing down Wikipedia.
It's madness, how badly Europe wants actual war. | “Donald Trump has left Britain simply no choice but to plan for military conscription” says former NATO Chief Sir Richard Shirreff of the United Kingdom. How would you feel about being forced to join the army to go camp out in Ukraine? British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is calling these "peace keepers." The TV shows inside Britain are ALREADY pushing this as "patriotic duty" to fight Russia...for Ukraine. ● Meanwhile, in France. President Emanuel Macron did a live stream on his Social MEdia Today. During that live feed, he was asked "Will Ukraine turn into World War 3?" Macron replied "That cannot be ruled out." Even the mass-media over there is starting to cover it.
Stephen Miller, the White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, stated in a briefing that the U.S. will utilize the resources of multiple federal departments to support President Donald J. Trump’s mass deportation program. “I can promise you that the full might of the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice, the Department of Defense, and every element and instrument of national power will be used to remove with speed all criminal illegals from the soil of the United States of America, to enforce final removal orders, and to ensure that this country is for American citizens and those that legally belong in this country,” he vowed. Miller confirmed the administration is committed to removing all criminal illegal immigrants from the United States, enforcing removal orders, and maintaining the integrity of American citizenship.
The CIA is planning to conduct its largest mass firing since 1977, The CIA is firing officers working on “recruiting and diversity.” And more firings are to come. President Trump will fire 6,000 IRS workers. The majority of the terminations are employees hired by the Biden Regime. The C.I.A. has moved to dismiss an unspecified number of officers who were working on recruiting and diversity issues, in what would be one of the largest mass firings in the agency’s history. The purge of the officers comes as the agency moves to comply with the spirit of President Trump’s executive order banning efforts to diversify the federal work force. A lawyer for the officers, Kevin Carroll, said the filing suggested the firings were only beginning.
The U.S. Senate voted to confirm Kash Patel as America’s next FBI Director. His confirmation did not come easily. Two of the Senate’s lead RINOs, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine, voted against him, while every single Democrat voted no. Surprisingly, fellow RINO Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky voted yes. The Senate broke the filibuster on Patel’s nomination in a 51-47 vote earlier on Thursday. Now, Patel has released his first comments since his confirmation, and MAGA Nation will love them. His fiery statement should also send shivers down the spines of the Deep State and America’s enemies.

"I want to thank you all for joining today our one month celebration of the most historic opening to a presidency in American history. No president comes close to what President Trump has achieved over just the last 30 days."
On Thursday, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller made an appearance in the press briefing room. The brilliant Stephen Miller opened up Thursday’s briefing with an epic monologue highlighting Trump’s first 30 days. The White House reporters looked miserable as they were forced to listen to Stephen Miller boast about Trump’s historic accomplishments. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/02/stephen-miller-crushes-it-epic-monologue-highlighting-trumps/
Conradson: You said roughly $50 billion is set to be cut in a year of waste, fraud, and abuse by unelected bureaucrats. We’re hearing this ironic narrative from the President’s critics and the leftwing media that Elon Musk is an unelected bureaucrat and he’s doing all this terrible stuff. Isn’t one of DOGE’s objectives to get rid of the federal bureaucracy, the deep state? And also, who was running the White House when Joe Biden was in office? I don’t know a single person who believes it was Joe Biden.
Miller: You’re tempting me to say some very harsh things about some of our media friends. Yes, it is true that many of the people in this room, for four years, failed to cover the fact that Joe Biden was mentally incompetent and was not running the country. It is also true that many people in this room, who have used this talking point that Elon is not elected, fail to understand how government works. So I’m glad for the opportunity for a brief civics lesson.
A president is elected by the whole American people. He’s the only official in the entire government that is elected by the entire nation, right? Judges are appointed. Members of Congress are elected at the district or state level. Just one man, and the Constitution Article Two has a clause known as the vesting clause, and it says the executive power shall be vested in a president, singular. The whole will of democracy is imbued into the elected president. That president then appoints staff to then impose that democratic will onto the government. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/02/watch-wh-deputy-chief-staff-stephen-miller-schools/
JOE BIDEN SYSTEMATICALLY UNDERTOOK THE GREATEST COVER UP IN GOVERNMENTAL HISTORY. BIDEN USED HIS OFFICE HIS NAME, HIS POSITION TO MAKE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, TO SHAKE DOWN FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS, EVEN ENEMY GOVERNMENTS. HE PARDONED HIS SON WHICH EFFECTIVELY PARDONING HIMSELF, AND HE PREEMPTIVELY PARDONED HIS IMMEDIATE FAMILY.
THESE PARDONS ARE THE SINGLE MOST CORRUPT ACT OF ANY AMERICAN PRESIDENT IN U.S. HISTORY. WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IS A LEVEL OF CORRUPTION THAT INVOLVES TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS GOING TO THE BIDEN FAMILY, FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS, AND FOREIGN ADVERSARIES. THE BIDEN'S HAVE CREATED A SITUATION WHERE AMERICAN POLITICIANS CAN EFFECTIVELY BE BOUGHT OFF BY OUR ENEMIES, CHINA, RUSSIA, AND UKRAINE. THERE'S NO WAY TO INVESTIGATE OR TO PROSECUTE JOE BIDEN FOR THIS. THE REAL QUESTION NOW IS: SHOULD IT BE POSSIBLE FOR A PRESIDENT TO PARDON HIMSELF FOR TREASON, FOR THE INTENTIONAL SELLING AND ECONOMIC DESTRUCTION OF HIS OWN COUNTRY?
All of these democrat traitors should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. They filled their bank accounts with hundreds of millions of dollars stolen from the American people. They looted our country of trillions of dollars and gave billions to our enemies. The trump administration recently made treason punishable by death and for good reason.
