    While I wish all the Epstein miscreants were indicted, tried and jailed for life, we have a much bigger problem, which will affect all of us.
    The Fed has lost borrowing capability – the petrodollar is dying.
    If the Fed has not forced the treasury to start printing dollars out of thin air, already it soon will.
    The increase in prices of Silver, gold and other precious metals are signalling a collapse of dollar value, to be followed by much higher inflation.

      Hi CFS…. It should be clear to everybody by now , that trump is running cover for himself , & lots of very important people . The man has betrayed the American people. ………. He needs to go , imo.

        Once Trump, who had been mixing with Epstein socially, realized he was such a sicko, Trump cut all ties with the creep.
        I don’t believe it is Trump stopping information flow on Epstein, but other GOP scum.

          Trump is a master of the Art of Deception… Bondi is doing the job Trump wants… Prosecuting nobody on the Trump Neocon War Deepstate team… But prosecuting people not aligned with the Trump agenda… like Fed chair Powell…

    It appears at this time that in March 2026 the COMEX will exercise Force Majeure for silver at about $155 per oz.

    However, there may be quite wild fluctuations in silver price and availability as we approach this force majeure time.

    None of my ruminations should be taken as financial advice.

      The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has studied Greenland’s geology, identifying the Citronen Fjord as a significant site for large Zinc-Lead (SEDEX-type deposits), containing valuable silver and other byproducts like gallium and germanium, with potential for a major mine project currently explored by Australian firm Ironbark Zinc, leveraging its remote, permafrost-rich location.

    cfs
    Jan 19, 2026 19:01 PM

    Greenland – potential open pit mining capability:

    .
    A revised U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) mineral assessment was uploaded — an 89-page technical document almost nobody read. But buried inside it is one paragraph that changes everything:

    Greenland’s Citronen Fjord deposit: ~2.03 BILLION ounces of silver.
    Not “potential.” Not “hype.” A resource estimate based on 127 drill core samples.

    That’s more than 2.4 years of global mine supply in one Arctic location.
    This is explosive: the timing lines up with a sudden geopolitical escalation — Trump’s renewed Greenland push, Denmark pressure, and physical silver premiums started behaving like a regional resource war instead of a normal commodity market.

    Trump WILL take Greenland, one way or another; rather than let China or Russia get their hands on this.
    Trump will offer a $150 Billion infrastructure development offer.

    China is preparing to offer Denmark a $300 Billion infrastructure offer.

    I lived and taught in Indiana for 30+ years. I traveled all over the country, choosing my optimum place to retire to.
    I chose, on basis of climate mostly, near Sonoma in California. It may have a great climate, but it did not take me long to realize how stupid it was to pay $10K a year in Ca. state income taxes. Politicians in California are corrupt and crazy. They care about nothing more than getting re-elected – buying votes by stealing from the middle classes and giving to the lazy and illegals.

    “In 1910, the richest 0.00001 percent of Americans owned wealth equivalent to 4 percent of U.S. national income. Today, that number has risen to 12 percent. The wealth and power of oligarchs far exceed their Gilded Age peak.”

    Military models Canadian response to hypothetical American invasion
    https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-military-models-canadian-response-to-hypothetical-american-invasion/ or https://archive.ph/tmoiF

    “The two senior government officials said military planners are modelling a U.S. invasion from the south, expecting American forces to overcome Canada’s strategic positions on land and at sea within a week and possibly as quickly as two days.

    Canada does not have the number of military personnel or the sophisticated equipment needed to fend off a conventional American attack, they said. So, the military envisions unconventional warfare in which small groups of irregular military or armed civilians would resort to ambushes, sabotage, drone warfare or hit-and-run tactics.

    The aim of such tactics would be to impose mass casualties on U.S. occupying forces, the official said.”
