Commentary by Kerry Lutz:

The 2024 election has ended with Trump winning decisively, and now Kerry and Martin Armstrong reflect on the implications of this outcome. Armstrong, who had previously predicted Trump’s victory based on economic trends, discusses the left’s response, marked by disbelief and protests. He also analyzes how political infighting and criminal charges against Trump backfired, leading to a stronger position for him and the Republican platform. Armstrong highlights that Trump’s return will likely bring immediate changes, including swift policy reversals in foreign and domestic agendas, particularly around immigration, economic reforms, and an emphasis on de-escalating overseas conflicts. The conversation extends to the international stage, with Armstrong noting the shift in global sentiment against long-standing Western policies, particularly NATO’s role in global conflicts. Armstrong predicts that neoconservatives may attempt to counter Trump’s agenda, especially his desire to end U.S. involvement in international wars. He foresees challenges in reining in national debt and suggests a shift toward tariffs and less borrowing. Armstrong emphasizes the potential for a major economic reset as the public turns away from “socialist” and “neo-Marxist” influences, with the decline of these ideologies expected to complete around 2037.

A new report by Oxfam, “Climate Finance Unchecked,” has determined that the World Bank has $41 billion in unaccounted funds that were destined to fight climate change.

This figure represents 40% of all disbursed climate funds by the World Bank. Oxfam’s audit revealed that between 2017 and 2023, between $24 billion and $41 billion simply went unaccounted for and there is absolutely no record of where the money went. No one knows how the money was used as there is no paper trail revealing where the money went.

“The Bank is quick to brag about its climate finance billions —but these numbers are based on what it plans to spend, not on what it actually spends once a project gets rolling,” said Kate Donald, Head of Oxfam International’s Washington D.C. Office. “This is like asking your doctor to assess your diet only by looking at your grocery list, without ever checking what actually ends up in your fridge.”

The World Bank is a leader in climate finance, controlling 52% of the total flow from all multilateral banks combined. World Bank President Ajay Banga announced in December that the bank achieved 35% of its financing three years ahead of schedule. He then set a new target of 45% by 2025. The bank later said in September that it achieved 44% of climate financing to the tune of $42.6 billion. “We’re putting our ambition in overdrive,” Banga said.

The bank acknowledged that it was difficult to keep track of its 800 climate financing projects but offered no insight into the missing funds. “It is clear that no one — including the Bank — has any real idea of how many billions of dollars are going to which climate actions,” the Oxfam report said.

Yet, climate activists are demanding $5 trillion in ANNUAL financing for the Global South to pay toward climate debt. Where did the $41 billion go? That large of a sum simply cannot be lost in a mere paperwork or oversight error. The climate change agenda has become a slush fund for the elite who will continue to fund this agenda without taking any responsibility for where the funds go or if they’re actually altering the climate in any meaningful way.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. may now Make America Healthy Again. One of his first measures will be removing “an industrial waste product” from America’s water supply that has been deliberately added since 1945.

On January 25, 1945, Grand Rapids, Michigan, began water fluoridation. By 1960, water fluoridation had reached 50 million households and doubled to 100 million by 1975. Why? The government began adding fluoride to the water based on a 1930s study that stated a small amount of NATURALLY OCCURRING fluoride could protect teeth from decay.

It is odd that the government does not force insurance companies to treat teeth as a medical expense. It is difficult to gauge if these measures have actually prevented tooth decay, as access to dental health is far greater now than it was when trials began in the 1930s and 1940s. Who is responsible for adding fluoride to the water? California, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio, and South Dakota have state mandates requiring fluoridated water. Other states like Maine, Utah, and New Hampshire permit the public to vote. Water utilities companies are responsible for maintaining water fluoridation systems. The EPA has federal oversight over the process and set a maximum contaminant level for fluoride at 4.0 mg/L. The Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974 forbids the EPA from actually mandating fluoride or any additive substances to the water supply, but they do have oversight.

So what’s the problem? “On January 20, the Trump White House will advise all U.S​. water systems to remove fluoride from public water. Fluoride is an industrial waste associated with arthritis, bone fractures, bone cancer, IQ loss, neurodevelopmental disorders, and thyroid disease,” Kennedy posted on X. Kennedy believes that fluoride does not have a clear health benefit to the public, but it is responsible for causing an array of life-altering ailments.

On September 25, 2024, a federal court in California ruled against the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in a case involving fluoride. The court said that current levels of fluoride violate the Toxic Substances Control Act. Judge Edward Chen declared that there is “substantial and scientifically credible evidence” that fluoride poses a serious health risk and emphasized concern over fluorides effect on the developing brains of infants.

“In all, there is substantial and scientifically credible evidence establishing that fluoride poses a risk to human health; it is associated with a reduction in the IQ of children and is hazardous at dosages that are far too close to fluoride levels in the drinking water of the United States,” the judge wrote in his ruling.

The National Institutes of Health’s toxicology program produced a study that found a correlation between fluoride and lower IQ in children.

“The NTP monograph concluded that higher levels of fluoride exposure, such as drinking water containing more than 1.5 milligrams of fluoride per liter, are associated with lower IQ in children. The NTP review was designed to evaluate total fluoride exposure from all sources and was not designed to evaluate the health effects of fluoridated drinking water alone. It is important to note, however, that there were insufficient data to determine if the low fluoride level of 0.7 mg/L currently recommended for U.S. community water supplies has a negative effect on children’s IQ.”

The CDC, American Dental Association, American Pediatric Association, and every BIG health agency would like to ignore these serious health risks. These organizations showed their hand during COVID and are not to be trusted. How can we possibly turn a blind eye to the blatant health crisis facing America when we have clear evidence that government agencies are permitting Americans to be poisoned? Kennedy’s health crusade could possibly help America lose its title of the least healthy nation in the developed world.

Reports are circulating that Donald Trump has asked Bibi to wrap up the war before his inauguration. Trump has been a strong opponent of perpetual wars, and he knows that America is obligated to support Israel.

Hamas leaders issued a statement saying that Donald Trump is obligated to “work seriously to stop the war of genocide and aggression against our Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, stop the aggression against the brotherly Lebanese people, stop providing military support and political cover to the Zionist entity, and to recognize the legitimate rights of our people,” Hamas added.

Hamas also stated that it will never submit to Israel or accept occupation. The “new US administration must realize that our Palestinian people will continue to resist the hateful [Israeli] occupation and will not accept any path that detracts from their legitimate rights to freedom, independence, self-determination, and the establishment of their independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was one of the first world leaders to congratulate Donald Trump on his victory, calling it a “fresh start for America” and “history’s greatest comeback.” Bibi ha visited Trump in Mar-a-Lago this past July and the two have a close relationship.

Despite his ties to Bibi, Trump is relentless in his America First policies. Trump recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital during his first term. Some are concerned that he will allow Israel to annex areas of the West Bank, a compromise that Hamas would never agree to. We have numerous players in this war now as well who may turn to America’s other enemies if backed into a corner. I do believe Trump will do his best to keep US troops out of the Middle East, but he is acquiring a nation that is currently backing two endless wars. His next steps will be crucial in determining the trajectory of both Israel and Palestine.

The media would like you to believe that Vladamir Putin is cheering Donald Trump’s victory, but the Kremlin has reiterated that America remains an unfriendly nation.

In fact, Putin did not directly congratulate Trump on his victory, but the Kremlin did comment that his win could be “useful.” Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said hinted that he believes Trump’s claim that he could end the war in 24 hours are unattainable. “We have repeatedly said that the United States can help end the conflict in Ukraine. This, of course, cannot be done overnight,” Peskov said. He added that he is not aware of any plans by Russian President Vladimir Putin to congratulate President-elect Trump.

Oddly enough, Zelensky DID congratulate Trump. “Congratulations to Donald Trump on his impressive election victory!” he posted on X. “I recall our great meeting with President Trump back in September, when we discussed in detail the Ukraine-U.S. strategic partnership, the Victory Plan, and ways to put an end to Russian aggression against Ukraine,” Zelensky wrote. “I appreciate President Trump’s commitment to the ‘peace through strength’ approach in global affairs. This is exactly the principle that can practically bring just peace in Ukraine closer.”

Zelensky went a step further and said he hopes to congratulate Trump in person, wishing to keep the discussion open. It seems as if Russia is simply tired of America’s involvement in this war. They have been lied to by countless politicians (see: Minsk Agreement) and do not trust the US. Zelensky, on the other hand, must appeal to Donald Trump as Ukraine is dependent on NATO which is dependent on US funding.

Now, we wait to see the steps Trump takes to tackle this monstrosity. The feedback from the Ukrainian and Russian leaders is not quite what most expected.

Donald Trump understands the American people. His 2024 presidential campaign will be remembered as one of the greatest in our nation’s history.

Donald Trump first defeated Joe Biden after one live televised debate that ended so badly it resulted in Biden’s own party ousting him from the campaign and installing Kamala Harris. The mainstream media was forced to go into overdrive to present Harris as a viable candidate even though she was one of the least popular vice presidents in US history.

The media conducted a 365 smear campaign against Donald Trump, but the public’s vote shows that the mainstream media is no longer a trusted source. Looking back to media coverage from July when Joe Biden was ousted from the race, ABC, CBS, and NBC have provided Kamala Harris with 78% positive coverage. In comparison, these agencies have only provided 15% negative or neutral coverage of Donald Trump.

Before Kamala came into the picture, the establishment attempted to imprison Donald Trump. They raided his home in Mar-a-Lago and forced him to appear in court during critical campaigning moments. Trump simply campaigned from New York. He went to urban seemingly forgotten neighborhoods where he was met with cheers. Trump strategically visited a bodega in Harlem where a worker there was attacked by an assailant who was not charged thanks to pro-crime anti-American AG Alvin Bragg. Biden attempted to pull the same stunt in Philadelphia but it was clearly staged. Trump once again aligned himself with the PEOPLE.

On May 30, 2024, the corrupt New York criminal system found Trump guilty of 34 felonies. He was charged with everything from providing hush money to a sex worker to falsifying business records. He was the first former president in the history of America to be charged with a felony. They threatened to seize his properties and assets. The left cheered at the prospect of Donald Trump behind bars.

Now, the establishment attempted to prevent Donald Trump’s name from even appearing on the ballot. The left claimed that Donald Trump attempted to overturn the results of the 2020 US Presidential election after the events that occurred on January 6. The Supreme Court unanimously voted to permit Trump to run for office.

We had foreign interference from Ukraine and every nation adhering to the Build Back Better agenda. Foreign leaders spoke out against Trump at every opportunity, claiming a Trump victory would ruin their nation and overall world peace. The number of world leaders in favor of a Trump presidency paled in comparison to his enemies.

Most of the nation’s billionaires came out in support of Kamala and poured millions into her campaign. Celebrities danced, cried, and cheered at her rallies in an attempt to gain the support of young voters. New world order philanthropists who admittedly interfere in elections, like Alex and George Soros, attempted to buy the majority of America’s radio stations to promote propaganda. Alex Soros even insinuated that Donald Trump should be stopped by any means, posting an image of 47 dollars alongside a bullet hole.

Perhaps most memorable are the not one but TWO assassination attempts against Donald Trump. The nation watched on in horror as shots fired through the crowd at the president during one of his rallies. Secret Service carried the bloodied president from the podium as he was covered in blood. He still used the moment to lift his fist into the air and encourage the people to continue the fight.

Then the FBI has confirmed that Trump was the target of a second assassination attempt. This took place when gunfire rang out at his Florida golf club. A man with an assault-style rifle pushed the firearm’s muzzle through the perimeter of his golf course in West Palm Beach. US Secret Service agents spotted the gunman and opened fire, prompting him to flee in an SUV, according to law enforcement officials. A suspect was later detained.

The left upped their violent rhetoric and continued to compare Donald Trump to Hitler. The entire establishment cheered these attempts and said he needed to be stopped by any means necessary.

The final weeks of the campaign were a bit of fun for Donald Trump. After Kamala claimed she once worked at McDonald’s, Donald Trump decided to cover a shift at a store. We saw the most powerful man in the world flipping burgers and serving fries. When Joe Biden called Trump supporters “garbage,” Donald Trump campaigned from a garbage truck no less than 12 hours later.

Donald Trump easily could have dropped out of the race. He risked his freedom and life to represent the people of America. He became the most hated man in the world and suffered the cruelest demonization by the media ever seen. Yet, as he said during his debate with Biden, he was compelled to run after seeing what has happened to America over the past four years. All of the establishment’s attempts failed because Donald Trump is a man of the people. They assume we are ignorant and will vote as we are told. Not this time. The American people of all backgrounds felt understood and seen by Donald Trump. Trump’s victory was truly a victory for the people.

COMMENT: Marty, Socrates is truly astonishing. You also called a high in gold and said this was indicating a Trump victory, for he is anti-war, so gold would decline, not rally. Every market has performed as you laid out, and I can now see how it all dovetails to support the political forecast. You are teaching us what nobody has ever done—connecting the dots. There is no random walk. You have proven that.

I can’t wait for this weekend. I agree. Nobody has accomplished anything close to you.

REPLY: There is indeed no random walk. That is the explanation given by people who cannot see the world as a whole. Socrates has taught me a lot, as have my clients. If I did not have clients worldwide, I probably would never have seen the dots to connect. I think we are expanding the capacity for the virtual attendees. For those looking to attend, the hotel is fully sold out. You probably could squeeze in, but you must book at another hotel. Even the visitors to this site has nearly doubled today.
