Kennedy's Sword Arm Workout

 Distant Observers,


​  Top Secret Seal Team Mission Into North Korea Ended With Massacre Of Civilians & Zero Intel Gained

​  In early 2019 at a moment President Trump during his first term publicly engaged in high-profile diplomacy with Kim Jong Un, which included chummy summits at the DMZ border and the exchange of letters, a highly secretive operation by the US Navy's SEAL Team 6 ended with a group of North Korean civilian fishermen massacred under mysterious circumstances.
​  Trump as Commander-in-Chief had ordered a high-risk mission, utilizing low-tech methods to avoid detection, to insert the Seal team on the North Korean coast where they would install a surveillance device capable of intercepting Kim Jong Un’s most sensitive communications. It would be hidden from Congress and the public, and even government officials based on need-to-know access...
​..The SEALs reached shore thinking they were alone, and started to remove their diving gear. The target was only a few hundred yards away.
​  By that moment, one group of Seals had made it to the shore, while another had stayed with the underwater small subs. Thinking that the fishing boat had likely detected the subs, which may have been exposed due to wake-movement or bubbles at the surface, and possibly underwater lights - a Seal commander at the shore opened fire on the boat.
​  "As the shore team watched the North Korean in the water, the senior enlisted SEAL at the shore chose a course of action," NY Times details. "He wordlessly centered his rifle and fired. The other SEALs instinctively did the same."
​  Upon inspection of the shot-up boat, all the crew were dead. They had just been unarmed civilians diving for shellfish. But to conceal their presence, the Seals punctured the lungs of the corpses so the bodies would sink to the bottom of the ocean floor.
​  From that point, "The SEALs swam back to the mini-subs and sent a distress signal." The report adds: "Believing the SEALs were in imminent danger of capture, the big nuclear submarine maneuvered into shallow water close to the shore, taking a significant risk to pick them up. It then sped toward the open ocean."​

​  Last refuge for Gaza families now a ‘city of fear, flight and funerals’ where childhood cannot survive
​  “This is what famine in a war zone looks like,” Ingram said, describing overcrowded clinics filled with starving children and parents in despair. She told how many families survive on a single daily bowl of lentils or rice, shared among all members, with mothers skipping meals so that their children can eat.
​  She shared in particular the story of Nesma, a mother she first met in April 2024. Nesma’s daughter, Jana, was evacuated from Gaza for medical treatment for malnutrition and recovered. But following the brief ceasefire in Gaza, and the family’s return to the north of the territory, the blockade resumed. Nesma’s younger son, Jouri, died last month from malnutrition, Ingram said, and Jana, now critically ill once again, is barely holding on.
​  “I am crushed after raising my child only to lose him in my arms,” Nesma told Ingram. “I beg not to lose Jana too.”​

​  J​ohn & Nisha Whitehead,  A Police State Presidency: When ‘Rule of Law’ Becomes ‘Rule by Gunpoint’
  What makes Trump’s propaganda even more dangerous is how well it aligns with America’s existing drift toward militarization.
Police departments nationwide already deploy 
surplus military equipment: tanks, drones, battlefield weapons.
​  Federal agencies like Homeland Security and ICE conduct raids that look indistinguishable from military operations.
Surveillance technology powered by Palantir and other private firms tracks the movements of ordinary citizens.
​  Protests are met with riot gear, tear gas, and mass arrests.
The carceral prison state is rapidly expanding. Congressional funding for Trump’s $170 billion prison expansion threatens to make incarceration the government’s default solution to social problems.
​  Military forces are being used for domestic policing. The federalization of the National Guard to suppress immigration protests in Los Angeles, already struck down as unlawful, is a warning of how military power is being recast as domestic policing.
​  It must be said: Trump did not create this police state reality. But his presidency gleefully amplifies it, recasting America as a nation where “law and order” means rule at gunpoint.
​  This shift matters because it changes how people imagine power. A president who wears a SWAT uniform—even in AI fantasy—is telling the public: I am not one of you. I am over you.​ We ignore this at our peril.
​  The Constitution does not permit presidents to be SWAT chiefs.​

​  On the other hand it is Constitutional for DC,and effective:  DC sues Trump over 'military occupation' by National Guardsmen

​  “No American jurisdiction should be involuntarily subjected to military occupation,” the complaint says, adding that Trump’s “command and control of out-of-state National Guard units when they are in state militia status violates the Constitution and federal law.”
​  The administration’s actions, which Trump has characterized as an attempt to control crime in the city, “flout the Posse Comitatus Act,” a 19th-century law, and other sections of federal law that “enshrine the nation’s foundational prohibition on the participation of military forces in domestic law enforcement absent the most extreme exigencies, such as an invasion or rebellion,” the complaint said.
​  “Defendants have established a massive, seemingly indefinite law enforcement operation in the District subject to direct military command. The danger that such an operation poses to individual liberty and democratic rule is self-evident,” the complaint said.​

​  Sundance,  Thoughts on Robert F Kennedy Jr Congressional Testimony​  
..This was the largest psychological control operation ever deployed against the American people, and anyone who stood up against the system of forced compliance was immediately identified, removed, shutdown, had their social media presence blocked, and every element of the government regulation used to silence their dissent.
​  The President Biden administration used their emergency powers to collaborate with and force social media platforms and tech systems to control the electronic messaging and communication of the American people.  Private industry was forced into compliance and small business were forcibly shutdown if they did not adhere to the rules and regulations of the various enforcement mechanisms.
​  The federal, state and local police were used as armed compliance officers to monitor the behavior of the American people and control their activity.  Government checkpoints were put into place to verify status as “essential” during travel, and vaccination compliance documents were required for commerce and social engagements.​..

​..To protect themselves from the consequences of their conduct, all of the officials who engaged in the process of mandated vaccine deployment are now hiding the data in an effort to avoid the consequences.
​  This is the background for newly appointed and highly skeptical HHS Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr to appear before congress and explain the changes he is making to a U.S. healthcare system that was shown to be completely broken by the example of SARS-CoV-2.​

"We are the sickest country in the world. That's why we have to fire people at the CDC ... They did not do their job! This was their job to keep us healthy!" —Robert F. Kennedy, Jr
​  What a gruesome spectacle it was to see HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. take on a conclave of vicious grifters on the Senate Finance Committee straining to warp reality in defense of their mighty patron, the nation-wrecking pharmaceutical companies...
​..Over the years, the public health agencies and “big pharma” had evolved into a symbiotic vector driving the nation into chronic illness. They allowed the population to poison themselves on a diet of corn syrup, engineered snack foods, and chemical additives. Result: epidemic obesity, diabetes, and many other illnesses. To counter that, they dosed everybody to-the-max with sketchily-tested pharma products while the agency employees raked in royalties and pharma got a get-outa-jail-free card in the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act.​..
..When the senators confabulate over “the science,” what they really mean is the armature of medical authority that has enabled the money-flow to their campaign committees (and eventually to their own bank accounts.)​    https://www.kunstler.com/p/the-grifters-lament

​  Israel’s Smotrich sparks outcry with West Bank annexation maps
​  Israel’s far-right finance minister said on Wednesday that maps were being drawn up for annexing territory in the occupied West Bank, land the Palestinians seek for a state, although it was unclear if he had Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s support.
​  At a press conference in Jerusalem, Bezalel Smotrich stood before a map that suggested the possible annexation of most of the West Bank with the exception of six large Palestinian cities, including Ramallah and Nablus.
​  Smotrich said he wanted “maximum territory and minimum (Palestinian) population” to be brought under Israeli sovereignty, urging Netanyahu to accept his plan that is being drawn up by a department under Smotrich’s supervision in the Defense Ministry.​

​  Another real estate deal of the century: Gomer & Sgt. Carter roll in their graves. Trump Considers Leasing Parts Of Camp Pendleton To Fund Golden Dome
​  The Pentagon is exploring the possibility of leasing sections of Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California to commercial customers, and potentially using the proceeds to bankroll President Trump's Golden Dome missile defense scheme, NBC News was first to report on Wednesday, citing a current DOD official, as well as a former one.
​  Positioned between Los Angeles and San Diego, Camp Pendleton boasts more than 125,000 acres of land and 17 miles of Pacific coastline, with Interstate 5 conveniently traversing it near the coastline. The topography is diverse, ranging from the seafront to mountainous terrain. As you'd imagine, it's the largest undeveloped coastline expanse in all of Southern California.​

​  Did you notice the EU just lost its gas lifeline? Here’s what you should know
With three signatures, Russia, China and Mongolia rerouted half a century of energy history eastward.
​  On Tuesday, the three countries signed a legally binding memorandum for the Power of Siberia 2 pipeline – a roughly 2,600-km line, at an estimated cost of around $13.6 bn, that will carry 50 billion cubic meters (bcm) of natural gas every year through Mongolia into northern China’s industrial heartland.
​  While the pricing structure has yet to be fixed, the signatories have effectively redrawn the European energy map.
​  For decades, this gas was the bedrock of German and Western European industry, piped from Russia’s Yamal fields in the Arctic through Nord Stream 1 directly into Germany. Now, that same supply is being redirected east.​

  ​Surplus Energy Economics, The Devil To Pay
​  In the wooden world of ​Admiral Nelson’s navy, the “devil” was a ship’s central deck seam, and this periodically had to be filled (“paid”) using tar pre-heated for this purpose. Thus, “the devil to pay, with no pitch hot” came to describe any task that was either extremely difficult or outright impossible to accomplish.
​  Our contemporary “devils” are environmental and economic challenges, and the “pitch” that we don’t have ready to hand is a body of fact-informed interpretations and projections.
​  More specifically, abundant environmental facts exist but are routinely disregarded, whilst most of the available “facts” about the economy belong firmly in the category of fiction.​..

​..On the environment, the vast body of opinion divides into two schools of thought. John Michael Greer has put this extremely well.
On the one side are those who say that “nothing is wrong, the climate isn’t changing, and even if it is changing, it’s not our fault and it will probably turn out for the best anyway”.
​  On the other are those who, whilst admitting that there are problems, insist that a fix exists in the form of “transition” to renewable sources of energy.
​  These, Greer says, are exemplified by “the Davos set, who fly on private jets to dine on steak and lobster while discussing how everyone else will have to give up their cars and live on insect protein”.
​  Likewise, the vast majority of opinion about the economy divides into two sets of views. One is that there’s no problem with the economy that can’t be explained in terms of the sheer bad luck of encountering wars, a pandemic and disruptive trade disputes in quick succession.
​  The alternative view concedes that the economy isn’t performing well, but assures us that the “normality” of growth will be restored through a combination of technological advance and monetary stimulus.
​  When we apply the litmus test of fact, this ‘duality of consensus’ becomes a duality of fallacy.​..
..The much-vaunted “transition” to “climate-friendly” renewable energy not only isn’t happening, but can’t happen. These “renewables” are neither renewable nor climate-friendly.
  They’re not “renewable” because they can’t be developed without the use of vast amounts of legacy energy from carbon sources. They’re not “climate-friendly” because their expansion involves mining and other activities which, both in nature and at scale, are very far from environmentally harmless...
..Both the ‘denial’ and the ‘reassurance’ approaches to climate change completely disregard the facts, presumably because these facts are inconvenient or, at least, unprofitable.​..
..There are no “renewables majors” taking up the baton from the fabled seven sisters of the golden age of oil, because nobody sees great commercial potential in the supply of forms of energy which always and everywhere depend upon subsidies...
..As Steve Keen has so rightly put it, “labour without energy is a corpse; capital without energy is a statue”...
..In America, Britain and Germany – and even in China – government net borrowing has substantially exceeded reported growth since 2019. This period includes pandemic lockdowns, of course, but it also includes the following rebound...
​..Governments have carried on borrowing even during the ‘recovery’ phase.​ Moreover, SEEDS analysis indicates that this has been a global rather than purely a local phenomenon. In essence, governments are borrowing money, and citizens’ spending of this borrowed money is being passed off as “growth”.​..
..GDP, far from measuring economic output, is in reality an aggregation of transactional activity in the economy...​  and it’s perfectly possible, indeed commonplace, for money to change hands without any material economic value being created.​..
..If we pour credit into the system, we necessarily increase the quantity of transactional activity, in ways that may be wholly unrelated to changes in the flow of material economic value...
..Recent economic history has been characterised by (a) a massive ramping up of credit supply, and (b) the subsequent slashing of rates to zero or even negative real levels, in order to prevent the enormous debt and quasi-debt edifice from collapsing...
..What we need to do, then, is to strip this multi-faceted “credit effect” out of reported transactional GDP. The resulting series of underlying or “clean” economic output is known in SEEDS terminology as C-GDP...
..As shown in Fig. 2B, reported real “growth” of 96% in GDP between 2004 and 2024 falls to only 33% on an adjusted, C-GDP basis.​   

..Infrastructures, being material, cannot be created, operated, maintained or replaced without the use of energy. Accordingly, “whenever energy is accessed for our use, some of this energy is always consumed in the access process, and is not available for any other economic purpose”.
​  This “consumed in access” component is known in Surplus Energy Economics as the Energy Cost of Energy. Since we cannot have energy without “paying” this proportionate cost, ECoE functions as the economic rent payable for the use of the planet’s energy resources.​..
..The relentless rise in trend ECoEs – from 2.0% in 1980 to 11.3% now – has been the single biggest reason why growth in the material economy has long been decelerating towards contraction...​   

..“Downstream” uses of this prosperity calculation include a comparison between prosperity and population numbers (Fig. 3C), and the division of economic resources into the three segmental categories of essentials, capital investment and discretionary consumption (Fig. 3D)...
..The data strongly points towards an artificial inflation of reported GDP, a deteriorating ability to afford discretionary (non-essential) products and services, dangerous excesses both in credit aggregates and in asset prices, and a very strong likelihood that our efforts to cope with these imbalances will tend towards the debasement of money​ [or massive debt default, or both, and WW-3...]​   https://surplusenergyeconomics.wordpress.com/2025/09/01/309-the-devil-to-pay/#like-44996
