European Outlook & German Elections

January 31, 2025

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, thank you because you are the lone voice calling to us in Europe, where free speech is dying quickly. Others are afraid to say what you point out, even if they see it themselves. Some try to dismiss you but never address what you say, only who you are. Many of us […]

Free Speech in Germany Only if You Agree With Government

January 30, 2025

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/German-Free-Speech.mp4   Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. made it clear what Free Speech was in Schenk v. U.S., 249 U.S. 47 (1919) (1919), ruling that a restriction is legitimate only if the speech in question poses a “clear and present danger”—i.e., a risk or threat to safety or to other public interests that is serious […]

Hungary May Not Renew Russian Sanctions

January 27, 2025

Brussels has been eager to oust Hungarian leader Viktor Orban. The prime minister has grown bolder in his battle against Ukraine regarding the nation blocking gas imports from Russia. Orban has not declared that he may not renew the European Union’s required sanction on Russia unless Ukraine renews the Russian pipeline deal. A final decision […]

Germany Considers Banning AfD Party

January 23, 2025

Democracy has no place in the European Union. Brussels has complete control and each nation must present a puppet leader who adheres to the EU agenda. We saw it in Romania as they simply dismissed the election results. Now, Germany is considering a ban on one of the most influential parties that is growing in […]

The Unelected in Brussels Deny Romania Democracy

January 22, 2025

The vote of the Romanian people must be ignored, according to the European Court of Human Rights, which upheld the annulment of the results of the first election. The next election is slated for May 18, and while Calin Georgescu is permitted to run again, will the establishment respect the vote? Georgescu is called a […]

China Eyes Vacant VW Factories

January 21, 2025

Germany’s failing auto sector may prove to be an integral power play for China, as Chinese OEMs are eyeing soon-to-be vacant Volkswagen (VW) factories.

NATO Urges Cuts to Social Programs to Finance War Machine

January 17, 2025

NATO’s new Secretary-General Mark Rutte believes that members must reduce spending on social programs to redirect funds into the war effort. Rutte is prepared to spend as if NATO were already at war. Social security programs and pensions must come secondary to the neocon agenda. “On average, European countries easily spend up to a quarter […]

Spain Introduces 100% Real Estate Tax for Non-EU Residents

January 16, 2025

Governments worldwide are at a loss on how to solve the housing crisis. Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez of Spain believes placing a 100% tax on properties purchase by non-European Union residents will solve the crisis. He’s wrong. “The West faces a decisive challenge: To not become a society divided into two classes, the rich landlords […]

Romanian Election Chaos – WE DONT WANT WAR

January 14, 2025

We saw the cancelation of the Romanian election in December 2024, the final month of the Political Year from Hell. Calin Georgescu, who the media declared as a far-right extremist, won the election. The establishment cried, “RUSSIAN INTERFERENCE!” and has refused to acknowledge the results. Tens of thousands of people took to the streets on […]

Europe’s New Travel Restrictions – Schengen at Risk

January 13, 2025

I have been warning for many years that the Schengen Agreement would fail.
