The Impact of the Trump Verdict on our AI Computer – The Fall of the US in 8.6 years.
June 1, 2024Juan Manuel Merchan is a Colombian-born American judge and former prosecutor. Most curious, he is NOT a formal judge, he is ONLY an acting justice of the New York State Supreme Court in New York County. How did a former prosecutor who is NOT a formal judge get assigned this case? This is not just […]
Deflation v Inflation v Stagflation – Misconceptions Clarified
May 31, 2024Some people have a very hard time understanding that we are in a massive deflationary spiral; they think that rising prices simply means it is inflation and not deflation.
