In New York state, Attorney General Letitia James, in coordination with New York Judge Arthur Engoron, are seeking to continue the targeting of President Donald Trump with a series of financial judgements, penalties and control mechanisms intended to isolate the leading 2024 Republican presidential candidate from his wealth.

As if something akin to the John Galt character in Atlas Shrugged was coming to life, no American individual has ever faced this level of intentional weaponization of power. If the state appellate court does not intervene, I predict a federal judge will have to get involved.  The reason is simple; the State of New York is clearly violating the 8th Amendment, and despite the compromised judiciary, the scale of overreach is even beyond the ability of the pretending judicial system to overlook it.

Perhaps, oddly, despite my intense anger toward these creatures of corruption, I fear not for the final outcome. I fully accept that a righteous and loving God has favor upon Mr. Trump, and there is a protection around him. It is a feeling, a sense about things, that is difficult to explain beyond, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper.”

NEW YORK – The New York attorney general’s office has filed judgments in Westchester County, the first indication that the state is preparing to try to seize Donald Trump’s golf course and private estate north of Manhattan, known as Seven Springs.

State lawyers entered the judgments with the clerk’s office in Westchester County on March 6, just one week after Judge Arthur Engoron made official his $464 million decision against Trump, his sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, and the Trump Organization.

From the mailroom: …”Given the confluence of events and your foresight in pointing directly to the financial mechanisms now seemingly in the spotlight [BlackRock etc], how would it be if your audience was the only one prepared for what was coming?”…

Me:  Like most things in life, when it comes to our protective instinct, I only care about the position of those I love.  This small corner of the internet, our community, is the only one that ultimately matters.  Convincing is an endless quest, that’s why CTH doesn’t exhaust that energy.  The key to preparation is brutally honest information that gives people the opportunity to make decisions.

Many people are noticing the arc of the storyline behind “what is our reality” is starting to shift.  The awakening is moving beyond the body politic and into the world actors and institutions who determine political action.  This awakening phase needs to continue.   It is not coincidental to spend the past two years in the matrix of global finance and the schemes of those who triggered the “western sanctions” against Russia (ultimately having nothing to do with targeting the Russian economy), and then see Tucker Carlson interviewing Ron Paul.  WATCH:

Opposition to presidential candidate Donald Trump does not originate from a baseline of domestic ideology, or social stuff.  The epicenter of opposition to Donald Trump, all of it, stems from the background understanding “there are trillions at stake.”

The people deep inside the global banking and financial system are the originating opposition to Donald Trump.  Controlled Lawfare, purchased politicians (both sides), weaponized institutions of government, the intelligence community, corporate media, big tech, all of it, and all the controlled/purchased people within it… are the weapons in the arsenal of those who control banking and finance; the aforementioned are their army.

Who is the army in opposition to them?  YOU, plus the hundreds of millions of global rebels and freedom fighters who will not back down from supporting President Trump.

Right now, the most consequential battle front is in the fields and valleys of information warfare. They deplatform, we rebuild. They demonetize, we subscribe.  They label, we ignore.  Small tech inside the freedom alliance is feverously creating new weapons; messengers (information content providers) immediately adopt them; users reequip themselves and head back to the front to engage.  As history has so eloquently outlined for millennia, there are more of us than them – they just control the institutions.

The awakening continues, and the apoplexy created in the minds of our opposition has caused them to become increasingly visible.  Pretenses are being dropped quickly.

This is a good opportunity to emphasize a key point that is often missed.   In the research and discussion outline yesterday, about Joe Biden’s EPA publishing new regulations for the auto industry, we dove deep into the background of what actually creates the issue. {GO DEEP}

The issue that should concern everyone is not the Joe Biden administration and their ideology around climate change, or the EPA, or even the viability of EVs themselves.  The issue that should draw the biggest concern is how the regulation originates; what is the impetus; who are the beneficiaries?

The regulation itself did not originate in the EPA, nor was it created from an origination process amid climate ideologues in the administration.  Everything starts with BlackRock positioning their assets.  From that empirical point, all political activity then takes place, which includes the regulations to support the BlackRock objective.

A massive, multinational investment firm is in control of political outcomes in the USA.  That should be the emphasis, not necessarily the regulation that flows as an outcome of that control, and certainly not the debate over whether EVs are a viable alternative to combustion engines.

BlackRock, and the control agents of finance, banking and investment, would like nothing more than to see Congress have debates about climate change, the viability of EVs as an alternative to combustion engines, the nuances of power grid generation from alternative energy sources, the scale of energy need as estimated and debated for the next two decades, etc.

All these points of debate become useful political policy issues that divide and contrast.  Sure, Congress would love to hold hearings about EV viability, U.S. grid compliance, the need for subsidized charging stations, etcetera, etcetera.  Because what is not discussed in this debate is where the subject matter comes from.

Dan Goldman is a Lawfare trust fund millionaire who was installed in Congress specifically to construct Lawfare arguments during testimony and defend Obama/Biden’s interests.  Before taking office, Goldman was the outside government Lawfare counselor selected by the impeachment committee to question witnesses. That’s his sole purpose, and the reason for existing.

After entering Congress, via New York, Goldman continues his Lawfare objectives from inside government.  Today, Goldman’s target was former Hunter Biden business partner Tony Bobulinski, who was giving testimony about the Biden family financial schemes.  At the conclusion of Goldman’s parseltongue, Bobulinski called him “a liar.”  The Lawfare leftists are big mad.  WATCH:

The backstory is so transparently corrupt it requires an explanation, so we’ll go down the full rabbit hole and explain how China knew – to a demonstrable certainty – their multi-billion dollar investment in Mexican EV plants would be useful.

 Always remember, there are trillions at stake.

First, who was installed in the Biden White House in charge of all personnel and staffing?  Catherine Russell. {SEE HERE} Who is Catherine Russell?  She’s the wife of Tom Donilon, a long-time aid and advisor to Joe Biden who served in the Obama White House.

After serving as Obama’s National Security Advisor (prior to Susan Rice), Tom Donilon then went on to become “Chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute {SEE HERE}.”  His job was literally to “leverage the firm’s expertise and generate proprietary research to provide insights on the global economy, markets, geopolitics and long-term asset allocation.” 

In essence, the Donilon family represented the interests of Blackrock in the White House.

Second, Tom Donilon’s brother, Mike Donilon is a Senior Advisor to Joe Biden {link} providing guidance on what policies should be implemented within the administration.  Mike Donilon guides the focus of spending, budgets, regulation and white house policy from his position of Senior Advisor to the President.

In June of 2022, Blackrock’s Tom Donilon was then appointed to be co-chair of U.S. Department of State’s Foreign Affairs Policy Board {SEE HERE}, in charge of U.S-China policy.  Can you see where this is going?

Blackrock, a massive multinational investment firm with assets in the tens-of-trillions, was essentially guiding/constructing the policymaking of the White House, through Tom Donilon, Mike Donilon and Catherine Russell (Tom’s wife).  Blackrock then took out massive investment stakes in China, including in the Chinese auto-making industry, with specific focus on EVs.  Tom Donilon, now shifting to the State Dept and guiding US-China policy, was the Blackrock government embed, ensuring policy that would keep their investments lucrative.

Atlanta Judge Scott McAfee ruled today that President Trump, and eight other co-defendants in the Georgia election fraud case, can proceed with an emergency appeal of his decision last week. That decision allowed lying Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to stay on the prosecution despite her affair with the special prosecutor she hired to oversee it, and despite the lies she told trying to hide it.

[SOURCE]

In a brief order issued Wednesday, Judge Scott McAfee granted the certificate of immediate review requested by President Trump. They are now expected to ask the Georgia Court of Appeals to take up the disqualification battle before the case goes to trial. (media)

When Atlanta Judge Scott McAfee ruled recently in the Fani Willis decision TechnoFog noted, “Judge McAfee rules that only one potential liar can prosecute the case – but not both potential liars. Instead of curing the “appearance of impropriety”, it allows it to continue. If Nathan Wade goes, why can Fani Willis stay? McAfee doesn’t give an answer.”

To chase down this judicial question, lawyers representing President Trump and seven co-defendants, collectively accused of RICO conspiracy, today asked McAfee to issue a certificate of immediate review of his order denying disqualification of Fani Willis.

The certificate, if issued, would allow the defendants to seek an immediate appeal of the order. Because in order for President Trump to appeal the order denying disqualification prior to trial, the defendants must obtain a certificate of immediate review within 10 days from the date of the order.  Today Trump’s lawyers asked for that certificate.  [pdf of motion HERE]

[SOURCE – pdf]

(VIA NBC) – […] It’s important to note that there isn’t an automatic right to appeal at this stage. Rather, McAfee would need to grant permission to do so within 10 days of his ruling, and then the state appeals court would need to agree to hear the case. If that happens, it could bring yet more delay to the prosecution that doesn’t even have a trial date yet and has already been sidetracked by the disqualification motion that led to McAfee’s ruling.

Within the U.K the timing of the 2024 election is decided by the Prime Minister [LINK].  “Prime Minister Rishi Sunak can call an election at any time up to Dec. 17, with the election taking place 25 working days later.”  Most political followers expect PM Sunak to hold the election in the Autum of this year.

Adam Boulton, long-time veteran of Sky News, said that GB News was damaging the ecosystem of broadcasting, by which he means it’s our little club and we don’t question climate change or mass immigration. We thought EU membership was wonderful, how dare you come along and give us a hard time.

For some reason CBS Sunday Morning put Christine Blasey-Ford back into the media cycle with an interview about her life after accusing Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh of sexual assault. {Full Interview Here} The CBS motive appears to be restimulating the gender vote in an election year.

Blasey-Ford comes across as she did in the original 2018 fiasco; detached from the information and regretting she ever participated.  For those who know the entire deep weeds backstory of the Rehoboth “beach friends,” former and current DOJ people who are now constructing political Lawfare, it is well accepted Blasey-Ford was a tool for their use.  Heck, the accuser never even penned the letter she was conscripted to write to the Senate Judiciary Committee.  [Hook, WATCH]

The resurfacing of Blasey-Ford may be intended to stimulate the gender vote, but has the potential to backfire if people start to dig deep into this prior storyline.  Within the 2018 background, and with the application of hindsight, all of the Lawfare “beach friends” become visible.

Names like Mary McCord, David Laufman, Monica McLean and Michael Bromwich all swirl around the construct that used Blasey-Ford as the vessel for their hit against Donald Trump’s supreme court nominee.  The Senate investigation into the Blasey-Ford accusations was quickly dropped by the media after the investigative staff began to discover the network and connections.
