Barack Obama Tells Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries to Organize the AI Control Bill for #1 Priority Passage Following the Midterm Elections

Just as the communists planned the takeover of healthcare as their #1 legislative priority in 2008, so too are the same people now organizing the #1 priority for 2027. This time it’s AI.

BACKGROUND CONTEXT – In the runup to the 2024 election, I was having a lengthy discussion with a CEO of a large tech company about the alignment of Silicon Valley the MAGA election of Donald Trump.

The CEO said to me, “don’t be fooled; as soon as they get this upcoming Artificial Intelligence (AI) system fully developed, big tech will immediately jump back to supporting the Democrats.”

The reason was simple.  Silicon Valley operates on a business plan where only a few, elite trillionaire tech companies control things.  In order to secure their overwhelming market share, they will need regulation to shut down competition.  Those same trillionaires will then write the regulations and attain market dominance.  Everything else between now and that moment when they claim “safety and security” is chaff and countermeasures.

It is with that context that CTH has reviewed the rise of the big AI developers and also reviewed the recent claims by those same trillionaires about the need for urgent and immediate AI regulation.  Their primary reasoning, “safety and security.”

NEW YORK TIMES – Former President Barack Obama warned during a recent private fund-raising event that artificial intelligence technology could be “dangerous” if not properly managed, as he implored Democrats to aggressively develop political and governing agendas to prioritize the issue in the coming years.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick Discusses U.S-Canada Trade Conflict

Here’s the fact bomb that silences Canadians almost immediately when delivered.

In December 2024 then Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, told President-elect Donald Trump that Canada could not comply with a renewed trade agreement based on reciprocity because: (1) Canada had deindustrialized; their manufacturing was now “light” manufacturing and assembling of component goods made by others. (2) Canada had legislated energy policy based on climate change, and high carbon emitting industrial production was no longer an option [coking coal burning etc.]. (3) The NATO military spending goal was too high for Canada to reach [they were 19th and it wasn’t a priority because the USA was the crutch]. (4) Internal provincial rules, restrictions and cross-border trade regulations did not align with a Canadian federal trade policy effort, and (5) the political power of the ‘dairy cartel’ inside Canada tied the hands of Canadian trade representatives.

That was the gist of it. That’s why Canada cannot now or ever find a path to a U.S. reciprocal or balanced trade agreement.  #1 and #2 is specifically why Canadian govt officials repeatedly use the word “intertwined.”  They say intertwined because they can no longer function separately. Canada is economically dependent on proximal and economic subsidies from the United States.

That outline by Trudeau led Trump to say that Canada should then become a 51st state….. And, well, you know the rest. Someone in Canada should ask Trudeau about it. The former Prime Minister has no reason to deny it, and too many people were witness. Then, perhaps, Canadians will understand.

Leftist Media Have Their Worst Day Ever – Clancy Juror Holdout Was a Black Male

For several days the pontificating media have been parading around the various jurors in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, using the mostly white women to frame the deliberations as sexist and insensitive to the emotional plight of a woman who strangled her three children to death with an exercise band.

Millions of middle-age, suburban, angry white females have proclaimed that American men should not have an opinion in the case while simultaneously using toxic sympathy as a weapon to defend the murderer.  The previously described “one male holdout juror” who created a mistrial by failing to find the murdering mother not guilty, has been criticized directly or by implication by an aligned leftist media.

Today, things changed.  Today, all the toxic, murder-supporting, leftist feminists found out the lone male holdout was a black man in his 30’s.  Suddenly, you can hear a pin drop as silence falls upon the professional AWFLs (Affluent, White, Female, Leftists).

Gayle King was interviewing juror Paula Devlin on CBS Mornings today, and as she was maneuvering through the narrative to hold the progressive banner in a certain direction – she asked the questions that froze her.

The Juror, Paula Devlin explained the jury panel consisted of nine women and three men, with 11 white jurors and one person of color. “Was the person of color a woman or a man?” King asked. After Devlin said the juror was a man, King sought clarification. “Is the holdout juror … a Black man?” she asked. “Yes,” Devlin replied. “A Black man is the holdout juror?” King asked incredulously. “Yes,” Devlin said. Stunned with disbelief and now incapable of formatting the DEI agenda, “Woah, I have to sit with that for just a second,” King said.  WATCH:

.

That explains why the media newsrooms, producers and media executives have not put the holdout juror through the traditional gauntlet of doxxing, vitriol, isolation, ridicule, personal targeting, marginalization and hate-filled public shaming.   The professional left doesn’t know what to do.

If the holdout was a white male juror, he would already be under attack.  Now, they’re stuck.

The Reported Almost “Drone Strike” on Zelenskyy’s Plane Never Happened, Entirely Fake News

Yesterday you might have seen explosive headlines around the world proclaiming the airplane carrying Volodymyr Zelenskyy from Moldova was hit or almost hit by a drone strike.  It never happened. It was entirely FAKE NEWS.

This is, once again, why we continue to refer to this conflict as ‘World War Reddit’.  Almost every report about the Russia-Ukraine conflict is fake, fabricated, made up out of nothing.  The drone strike story was entirely manufactured.  Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre made it up.

The reality is the drone in question was detected inside Ukraine over 160km from where Zelenskyy was in Chisinau International Airport. Zelenskyy and/or Moldova itself was never under any threat.

“After 5:20 p.m. (local time, 4:20 p.m. Paris time), authorities confirmed that the drone had fallen and exploded about 160 km from Chisinau International Airport. Flight restrictions were then lifted and the Ukrainian president’s plane took off later than planned,” he added.  A source in the Ukrainian presidency told AFP that Zelensky was at the slightest risk was “exaggerated”. {SOURCE}

To give you an idea where the drone was, see the map below.

Canadian Minister Who Organized Govt Targeting of Opposition to Seize Bank Accounts Now Accuses U.S. of Authoritarianism

Chrystia Freeland is an exceptional representative of the mindset showcased by 80% of Canadians.  During her tenure as Deputy Minister to Justin Trudeau, Freeland organized “emergency powers” to target government opposition which included the seizure of bank accounts and government control over the income of Canadian citizens they disliked.  The events described are not in question.

Current Prime Minister Mark Carney then placed Freeland as the advisor to Ukraine President Zelenskyy on the Ukraine reconstruction banking and finance agenda.  A charter member of the globalist control mechanisms within the World Economic Forum, Chrystia Freeland is currently working for Ukraine and the EU-NATO allies in the banking and finance capacity; inside the mechanics of the system that controls the financial fraud within Ukraine.

As Mark Carney is desperately trying to organize a globalist response to President Trump’s program of economic nationalism and sovereignty, Freeland travels back to the U.S. to appear on leftist media outlets and proclaim that Trump’s economic perspective is evidence of “authoritarianism.” The current Canadian approach is to try and influence domestic politics inside the United States, on behalf of the global interests opposed to Trump.

It should be noted that the activity underway by Canadian officials inside the USA is against the law in Canada.  The Canadian govt do not permit foreign influence to undermine them and have strict controls over their media. WATCH (prompted):

.

Don’t lose sight of the forest while looking at the trees.  Ultimately this fear by the Canadians and others is about economics, it’s about money, it’s the “there are trillions at stake” aspect to globalism.  There are ideological components, yes; however, the ideology is evident because it is a tool. At the root of their apoplexy all of this is about control of money.

Leftists, progressives, communists et al, use money as a tool and weapon in the dynamic of their power and control.  Hence, the banking example previously in Canada.  Take away the leftist’s ability to weaponize affluence, and their influence diminishes.  Take away their money and they lose power. That’s the heart of the matter, and why President Trump’s economic approach toward geopolitics is so fundamentally against their interests.

White House and USTR Jamieson Greer Introduce Stacking Tariffs of 50 Percent and Import Bans Against Canadian Goods

President Trump and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer waited to see if Canada was going to follow through with their retaliatory tariffs against U.S. imports.

The Canadian government carried out their tariffs, so today the White House introduced 50% ‘stacking tariffs’, on top of pre-existing tariff rates, and additional import bans against several Canadian products.

It should be quickly noted that several North American corporations are already making moves to avoid the issues by shifting production lines and adding additional investment into U.S. manufacturing.  As expected, getting locked out of a 32 trillion economy is not an option for survivability.

The easiest way to review the issues is not to read media reports, but rather to read the actual outcomes as announced by the White House and USTR.  CTH has noticed several Canadian outlets are already making false claims.

A White House FACT SHEET IS HERE.  The USTR ANNOUNCEMENT IS HERE.

It is worth reviewing both sets of outlines as well as accompanying links to determine the exact types of Canadian products being targeted by stacking tariffs and import bans.

WHITE HOUSE – Today, to address Canada’s increased discrimination against U.S. commerce, President Trump signed five Proclamations pursuant to Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 to ban certain products from Canada and modify the scope of the tariffs on certain Canadian products previously announced on July 20, 2026. President Trump is taking decisive and appropriate action to respond to Canada’s additional retaliation and continued discriminatory treatment of crucial American exports.

Ukraine Prosecutor General Resigns Following Criminal Corruption Probe Involving His Office

Prosecutor General of Ukraine Ruslan Kravchenko is essentially the equivalent of the U.S. Attorney General.  Keep in mind the Prosecutor General is the office responsible for prosecuting all the Ukraine government officials engaged in corruption, fraud and bribery.

Last week the Ukraine anti-corruption agencies, ​NABU and SAPO, said they had discovered a criminally corrupt operation running from the Prosecutor General’s office.

Today, Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko resigned.  Go figure.

VIA REUTERS – Sept 8 (Reuters) – Ukraine’s prosecutor general said on Monday he had offered his resignation citing political reasons, in the latest sign of ​disunity in the senior ranks of the Ukrainian ruling ‌elite.

“This is a political decision, and I have made it consciously. I do not want the position of Prosecutor General to be used as ​an instrument of political confrontation,” Ruslan Kravchenko said in ​a statement on Telegram late on Monday, without elaborating.

Kravchenko ⁠thanked President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and Ukraine’s parliament, the Verkhovna Rada, ​and asked them to accept his resignation.

Ukraine’s anti-graft agencies, the ​NABU and SAPO, said last week they had uncovered a criminal organisation dealing with fraudulent call centres which was allegedly arranged by an official within ​the Prosecutor General’s Office.

Kravchenko has denied he was involved in ​the alleged scheme. “My position regarding the accusations remains unchanged,” he said in ‌his ⁠Telegram post. (read more)

A few weeks ago, Ukraine Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko resigned.  She too was under a corruption investigation.

Zelenskyy Heading to Canada

Sometimes you can get so far into the rabbit hole that you just need to transmit the signal and let others figure it out.  So, here’s some sketchy stuff that doesn’t make sense, but then again…

You might remember my mentioning that something was odd after Zelenskyy visited London in early June and then a series of unexplained events started happening.  Well, maybe what I am about to share connects to that, or maybe it’s just my imagination.

It all started when I took the announcement of De Nederlandsche Bank transferring gold from Canada and the USA, then overlaid their reported timeline with other stuff I have been tracking.  According to the announcement: “Between March and August 2026, approximately 86 tonnes of gold were transferred from the combined total of approximately 313 tonnes held in the United States and Canada to London.” {source}

Now, mind you the official public notice just happened yesterday, Sept 2nd.

Between March and August 2026?  A very interesting set of dates, considering the Dutch claim their move was due to uncertainty with the USA and Canada economic and trade positions, yet those economic/trade positions were not tenuous until very late August.

Why move gold out of Canada in March?

Here’s the interesting timing.  Do you remember when Canada reported a 0.0% GDP growth in the first quarter, and technically that put them into a defined recession.  That narrative was not in the interests of Mark Carney who was -perhaps not coincidentally- repeatedly visiting the EU after taking up the leadership position for the “new, middle-power world order.”  In fact, the Canadian GDP result was widely reported and a sore spot for Carney’s govt.

Canadian Govt Gaslighting Is Off the Charts

CTH continues to get considerable questioning about how the U.S-Canada fracture will take place, what it means for the Canadian dollar (CAD) and when the issues can be expected to apex.  It appears that part of the reasoned disconnect people are struggling with is directly related to the messaging from the Canadian government in combination with the financial media.

In short, despite the increased trade friction, a decoupling of the U.S. economy from the Canadian economy just seems unfathomable to most observers. The main question we receive is ‘when will things happen‘?  Meaning when will financial markets react?  The most obvious answer to that question is, when the USA announces the termination of the USMCA (CUSMA) trilateral.

If you hold the opinion that all of these trade friction points will be resolved within the margins of the USMCA, then it is correct to predict that no significant material impact will be felt north of the border.  If, however, you hold the opinion that the USMCA will be terminated because the core of the issues between the two countries are irreconcilable, then the material impact will come as soon as that announcement is made.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, the only Canadian government official to attend President Trump’s inauguration, appears on Fox Business. Like all other Canadian officials, she cannot contemplate the elimination of CUSMA/NAFTA.  Such an outcome is simply beyond her comprehension. WATCH:

In previous interviews and broadcasts, Mrs Smith claimed if Canada was to introduce an export tax the USA would respond accordingly.  This is not accurate.  The U.S. has no mechanism to place a tax on exports.

Additionally, inside Canada the structure is provincial.  That means each province taxes each other province for goods and services.  In the USA we have state sales taxes, but those taxes are applied across all goods sold to/inside an individual state.  Ex. Florida does not tax Texas.  Florida has one sales tax for all goods regardless of their origin.

Must Watch: U.S. Trade Rep Jamieson Greer -vs- Canadian State Controlled Media Rosemary Barton

This is a must watch interview.  Most Americans have no idea that Canadian media is controlled by the Canadian government; it’s what they call “cultural protection” where the rules and regulations of permissible speech are controlled by govt regulators and media are subsidized by govt.  The overall objective is to control information and censor viewpoints that might be averse to the interests of the Canadian govt. That’s why most Canadians have no concept of granular details on policy matters; they just don’t get the information.

In this interview with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), U.S Trade Representative Jamieson Greer is discussing the trade conflict and breakdown with Canada’s version of Baghdad Bob, Rosemary Barton.  I’m a little surprised the CBC would even entertain the discussion. However, as noted in the past few days there is increasing skepticism amid Canadians about who and what actually blew up the trade talks. Canadians are starting to show signs of suspicion; enter Ms. Barton on behalf of the Canadian government to try and control things.

USTR Jamieson Greer answers the questions in a most unfortunate manner; meaning, he told the truth.  Greer outlined exactly why he suspects the trade talks broke down, and it has nothing to do with economics or trade, it’s all politics on the Canadian side.  As Greer noted, there was no change to the trade agreement between President Trump and Prime Minister Carney’s lengthy phone call on Tuesday, and the Canadian decision to walk away on Friday.  Greer was being very diplomatic, but Barton started getting the vapors. WATCH:

Greer noted the Carney administration had requested “Fortress North America” a synergetic alignment of U.S-Canada trade principles.  Canada wanted a united North American continent against the world on trade.  Therefore, this talk of Canada being upset about joint collaboration and agreement on trade agreements with third countries, a point brought up by Carney in the walk-away just doesn’t make sense.

If you want a united trade policy for North America, then each nation in North America must hold the same baseline on terms and conditions with other nations.  That was the discussion. Those were the agreed principles; until all of a sudden Canada accused the U.S. of dictating terms.
