The Federal Reserve prints whatever amount of money the corrupt Elites need to conduct unconstitutional wars or fund multinational corporations to put the little guy out of business.

U.S. truckers are reportedly planning an October 1 work stoppage over rising diesel prices, with the risks of a prolonged trucking shutdown that could disrupt deliveries of food and other essentials.
If Trump was trying to destroy the American economy it would look just like this.
In California, gas stations are facing a unique challenge. The station signs are only configured to go up to $9.99 per gallon and at several stations the price of diesel has reached that maximum. Diesel prices are higher than they have ever been in history.
Worse, according to some news reports the advertising of the maximum price of $9.99 per gallon is meant to signal to truck drivers that they have run out of diesel altogether. Expensive diesel is a hit to the economy, but running out of the fuel at any price is a whole different kind of crisis.
Our highways are filled with semi-trucks burning diesel to bring the products we depend on to the markets. Our freight trains use diesel to transport what is not transported by truck. When the price of diesel increases, the cost of everything moved by that diesel also increases. This is one reason we are seeing much more inflation than the government wants to admit.
"There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights."
The diesel crisis is getting so serious that even President Trump has been forced to admit it. Of course, instead of taking at least part of the blame over his war of choice against Iran and his continuation of the proxy war against Russia through Ukraine, he is blaming Ukraine’s military strikes on Russian energy infrastructure.
President Trump is now asking Ukraine to stop attacking Russian energy resources because diesel is a global commodity and the scarcity produced by the attacks is hitting us here at home. But the strikes deep inside Russia are guided by US intelligence, which provides the targeting data for Ukraine.
The Russia/Ukraine war is only part of the problem. Despite President Trump’s bluster about controlling the Strait of Hormuz, the fact is Iran is in control and very little oil – or anything else – makes it out without Iranian approval.
Yemen’s Iran-allied Houthis joining the fight only makes matters worse. Over the weekend they attacked Saudi Arabia’s bypass pipeline, taking much more oil off the market.
The real problem here is not oil or diesel. The real problem is that wars of choice spin out of control and destroy the economies of those who launch them. Empires throughout history have been undone by endless overseas wars. No amount of bragging about the size and strength of our military can change this reality.
Now we are seeing the chickens coming home to roost.
President Trump has justified tanking the US economy by claiming the attack on Iran was essential because they were about to get a nuclear weapon. Our intelligence community disagreed, but he refused to listen and took his cue from Netanyahu instead.
It turns out Iran actually does have a “nuclear weapon.” That weapon is the ability to control the world’s oil flows at a margin high enough to cripple the economies of any country seeking to conquer it. According to press reports, former Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard tried to warn President Trump that Iran would close the Strait of Hormuz if attacked but he didn’t want to hear it.
The Founders were determined to prevent the executive branch from being able to start wars for this very reason. The “people’s branch” of government – Congress – is where they placed the power to launch wars. We are now seeing the consequences of ignoring their very wise advice.

No Fuel, No Food: Farms Shutting Down Worldwide
MUST SEE INTERVIEW
Trump needs to make peace NOW. Every day that energy and fertilizer shipments are delayed is another day we dig ourselves deeper into a massive pile of shit.

Victory does belong to Iran.
I have been Blogging for years that technology was changing war and we were preparing to fight World War II all over again.
Technology changes everything.
Imagine being the captain of a wooden warship when the ironclads steam out of the harbors.
Or you are a Polish Cavalry office in 1939 facing waves of German tanks.
Or today, when waves of supersonic Iranian missiles just made the air force and navy obsolete.
Our navy had to position themselves 400 to 500 miles away from Iran to avoid being sunk.
The air force has suffered the same fate. Jets delivered bombs to the enemy lines and cities. Now unmanned missiles do the same thing at ultra high speeds.
No matter what happens to this peace agreement, war has changed.
US Empire is Crashing
We cannot defend ourselves or our Arab allies.
The idiot generals and political hacks will always be well fed. Trump and the corrupt American political class don't have a clue that war and shutting down oil also shuts down food production.
Russia has just deployed uniformed military forces into Lebanon — S-400 systems, electronic warfare units, and armored battalions now positioned in the Bekaa Valley.
This changes everything for Israel's northern command, eliminates IDF air superiority over Lebanon, and puts Washington in the most dangerous strategic corner it has faced since the Cold War. This is not a drill. This is not an advisory mission. This is Russia planting its military flag on Israel's northern border — and the consequences will reshape the Middle East for decades.
I voted for Trump six times - three primaries and three general elections.
This man who stands before us is not the man I voted for.
I suspect he is being blackmailed by Israel, but we need to add the components of dementia and Alzheimer's.
Trump is an old man who should be on his golf courses every day. Instead he is lashing out at the world around him.
Retard Alert
Donald Trump Has Blockaded
The Blockade
Trump has gone fucking nuts.
The unconstitutional Iran War is doing massive damage to the world economy by cutting off energy supplies.
Trump's answer to the oil blockade is to do another oil blockade cutting off even more oil from the world.
You can't make this shit up.
By Gary;
Foolish me to believe that "no new wars" shit from Trump.
Since the dawn of time a traditional path to wealth is to kill your neighbor and steal his stuff.
No more. No less.
Like all politicians, Trump does not care about human lives. There has been no thought given to the 180 little school girls slaughtered by American bombs or the countless civilians murdered by our bombing of cities in this unconstitutional war.
I'm off the Trump train yet again.
