A decision has been reached to demolish the remaining unstable part of the collapsed condominium building in Surfside, Florida, as Tropical Storm Elsa flirts in/out of hurricane status [NHC Update] while moving through the Caribbean.

Elsa is anticipated to impact south Florida on Tuesday.  During a press conference today Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced the controlled demolition will take place prior to Elsa’s arrival in order to protect rescue and recovery workers.

“Demolition of the unsafe portion of the building is the fastest way to continue rescue operations”, DeSantis announced.  Officials on the ground are fearful that high winds connected to the arriving storm will make the remaining structure too unstable for any rescue operations to continue if they do not take the unstable portion down. Details of the operation to execute a controlled demolition will be released soon.

In the interim all residents in South Florida have been instructed to keep an eye on Elsa as she wobbles across Haiti and Cuba in the next 48 hours.  Most counties in South Florida have been put under a proactive state of emergency status. Slight shifts in the storm, to the east or west, will determine how much of the south Florida area are impacted. The current track puts Elsa on the west side of the state in the Gulf of Mexico late Monday and early Tuesday.

CTH has said repeatedly the road to serfdom is cemented with the catch-phrase “a service driven economy.”  The June jobs report from the Bureau of Labor statistics [BLS LINK]  highlights the JoeBama economic policy exactly that way.

Approximately 850,000 jobs were gained in June; however, simultaneously the number of long-term unemployed increased by 233,000 to the current state of four million.

While we should expect to see the leisure and hospitality industries as well as education rebounding from the various COVID-19 shutdowns, and indeed they did ( +343,000 and +155,000 respectively), manufacturing was flat (+11,000), and construction was down -7,000.  The details inside the data are not as great as the top-line would presume.

CTH looks at alternative data connected to the overall economy; empirical data and sector specific trends inside industry.  The biggest domestic issue is inflation, stunningly large increases in prices for fast-turn consumer goods like food and fuel.  Inflation is one of the primary reasons we have stated home values and home sales have peaked on a MACRO level despite the massive amount of real estate investment purchasing underway by financial institutions.

When we look at durable good production, we focus on the primary drivers of higher cost middle-class or working class products.  Seeing construction jobs decline by 7,000 at the same time real-estate values are increasing only points to the problem of working class not being able to afford new home purchases.  In the real estate sector this is unsustainable; it is simply a matter of math, income stability and wages.

Tucker Carlson used his TV broadcast on Wednesday night to continue pushing-back against NSA operational data collection that appears to have caught him in their surveillance dragnet.  However, what Carlson (and many others) have yet to reconcile is the totality of control held by the newest branch of government, the Intelligence Branch.

CTH has been contacted by numerous interested stakeholders in the larger dynamic.  Tomorrow we hope to be able to give readers an explanation of exactly how each traditional branch of government; including the administrative agencies within them; have been taken over by a methodical expansion of the Intelligence Community.  Everything is now controlled by the Intelligence Branch, and the underlying mechanisms of government have abdicated, perhaps even abandoned, their oversight.

In the interim, here’s the latest segment from Carlson along with one of CTH earlier outlines on how the NSA database became a surveillance tool for President Barack Obama.  We are almost 15 years into a process that facilitates the Intelligence Branch as the most powerful -and unelected- governmental system.  After the Carlson segment remind yourself how President Obama exploited a process he created.

There is no workable solution to debate until the American people and congressional representatives admit and accept the totality of the current corrupt system.  In essence, until everyone realizes there is a fourth branch of government now in control.

The process to create the Intelligence Branch started around the time the office of the DNI was created (post 9/11/01).  However, it was President Obama and AG Eric Holder who took advantage of the framework the ODNI system created with an immediate and methodical plan in 2008.  The effectiveness of what they constructed shows up toward the end of the Obama presidency when they were using that system to assist Hillary Clinton.

That is the context to remember a time-frame between December 2015 and April 2016 when the NSA database was being exploited by contractors within the intelligence community, using windows opened by the Obama-era DOJ/FBI, to facilitate unauthorized searches.

The House of Representatives voted today to approve a House Select Committee to investigate the January 6th DC protest.  The vote was 222-190 [LINK] to approve House Resolution 503, with Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger voting to support the Pelosi mid-term election scheme.

The January 6th House Select Committee investigation is to MAGA voters what the Mueller Investigation was to President Trump. A tool to attack political opposition and frame a narrative for the 2022 mid-term election. Nothing more.

Beyond the votes to approve there were 19 representatives who did not vote.  It does not go unnoticed that every single non-vote was a republican representative.  [link]

The Republicans who did not vote include: Jodey C Arrington (TX-19th CD), Jim Banks (IN-3rd CD), Earl “Buddy” Carter (GA-1st CD), Michael Cloud (TX-7th CD), Russ Fulcher (ID-1st CD), Louie Gohmert (TX-1st CD), Bob Good (VA-5th CD), Yvette Herrell (NM-2nd CD), Clay Higgins (LA-3rd CD), Darrell Issa (CA-50th CD), Ronny Jackson (TX-13th CD), Mike Johnson (LA-4th CD), Mary Miller (IL-15th CD), August Pfluger (TX-11th CD), John Rose (TN-6th CD), Chip Roy (TX-21st CD), Thomas Tiffany (WI-7th CD), Randy Weber (TX-14th CD), Roger Williams (TX-25th CD).

A non-vote is essentially a vote to approve.  Keep in mind, some of the Texas delegation may have been at the U.S-Mexico border event with President Trump; bad timing, but ok.  However, the rest of the Republican non-votes should be must be questioned by their constituents for why they are essentially supporting Nancy Pelosi’s scheme by not voting against it.  This is a critical point in history, question your representatives.

Democrats, the MSM and the administrative state writ large are pulling out all the stops to distract from toxic headlines running against their interests today.  One of the important stories today is President Trump traveling to Texas for a border security meeting with Governor Greg Abbott.

The president and governor hold a roundtable briefing with some media present. Video Below:

Last night Fox news host Tucker Carlson reported on a whistleblower contact from within the intelligence community who informed him the NSA was conducting electronic surveillance of his private communication (email and text messages).  Tonight the NSA responded via Twitter:

Techno Fog spotted something most of us would also note {SEE HERE} the NSA statement is an obtuse non-denial.   However, there’s a lot more in that statement that should alarm everyone.  I don’t know if I can cover it all here; this is actually serendipitous for a larger framework article I have been working on.  But here’s some top-line initial reactions.

First, notice the time of the tweet message.  Exactly 8:00pm to coincide with the beginning of Tucker Carlson’s broadcast.  That’s typical political operative snark, which wouldn’t be too surprising if it were not the fact this is from the National Security Agency.

Many people in/around the intelligence apparatus have noted and confirmed to me that most of the modern human resources, within the working analytical part of the intelligence apparatus, are immature, solitary and emotionally stunted individuals.  Accepting things as they directly appear, this subtle snark is actual confirmation.

Beyond the insanity of the U.S. southern border being unsecured, many people wonder how this entire logistical process is funded.  The answer is quite simple; within every federal spending and appropriation bill there are carve-outs for various segments of the process.

The Department of Homeland Security and Department of Health and Human Services receive hundreds of billions in supplemental appropriation funding from within each federal spending package.  Each of the COVID relief bills contained money to facilitate various elements of this process.  Federal housing grants, food assistance programs, education funding, employment and income assistance, all of it, every single spending package, contains funding mechanisms to support the border invasion.

This is one of the largest private-public partnerships in the entirety of U.S. government.  The religious or ‘faith-based’ immigration groups are also fuel for the problem. In the past 15 to 20 years illegal immigration and refugee settlement has been financially beneficial for every supportive Non Governmental Agency (NGA).

Tonight on Fox News, Tucker Carlson addressed part of the process, the logistics of moving almost 200,000 illegal aliens around the country every month.  WATCH:

.

Slight quibble, the Biden administration has not “lost control” of the border.  Illegal immigration is not an accident, a mistake, or any form of ineptitude. Nothing about this is unintentional {Go Deep}, we have tracked this for years.

The process of fundamentally transforming the United States of America, per Barack Obama statement, is exactly this mass illegal migration process.   The Biden administration has full control over the border, every crossing is purposefully accepted as part of the operational goal.

There is no greater disconnect between DC and taxpaying Americans as the policy positions of Democrats and Republican in Washington DC surrounding illegal immigration.  If congress really wanted to stop it, they could easily defund it.  They don’t.

Several people have written to CTH for an economic review of our current status.  Below this post are two primary precursor articles [Primary One and Primary Two] which outline the economic dynamic in play and how we can look forward with accuracy to what is likely to happen.  Despite the deflective talking points by the professional financial pundits this massive spike in inflation is entirely predictable due to Biden economic policy and Biden monetary policy.

Keep in mind the FED has already said in April they would “support inflation” but that’s because while they will not say it openly they know there’s no way to stop it.  The massive inflation is a direct result of the multinational agenda of the Biden administration; it’s a feature not a flaw, and it has nothing whatsoever to do with COVID. Also keep in mind the first group to admit what is to come are banks, specifically Bank of America, because the monetary policy is the cause.

There’s no way around this.  Despite the pundit and financial class selling a counter-narrative, home prices will crash and unemployment will go up.  I know this is directly against the current talking points, but the statistical reality is clear.  CTH was the first place who said two months ago that home sales will plummet, that is starting to happen right now.  There’s no way for it not to happen, the big picture tells us why.

You might remember when President Trump initiated tariffs against China (steel, aluminum and more), Southeast Asia (product specific), Europe (steel, aluminum and direct products), Canada (steel, aluminum, lumber and dairy specifics), the financial pundits screamed at the top of their lungs that consumer prices were going to skyrocket.  They didn’t.  CTH knew they wouldn’t because essentially those trading partners responded in the exact same way the U.S. did decades ago when the import/export dynamic was reversed.

Trump’s massive, and in some instances targeted, import tariffs against China, SE Asia, Canada and the EU not only did not increase prices, the prices of the goods in the U.S. actually dropped.  Trump’s policies led the largest deflation in consumer prices in decades.  At the same time Trump’s domestic economic policies drove employment and  wages higher than any time in the past forty years.  With Trump’s policies we were in an era where job growth was strong, wages were rising and consumer prices were falling… The net result was more disposable income for the middle class, more demand for stuff, and ultimately that’s why the U.S. economy was so strong.

Reposting an earlier article by request as more people are starting to understand why CTH has focused on the financial motivations behind the political ideology for over a decade. It is critical that people understand the landscape. Underline it. Study it. Research the issues and teach everyone about it.

Consider if you will, the backdrop of current U.S. politics; the influence of Wall Street and the multinationals who align with globalism; the reality of K-Street lobbyists writing the physical legislation that politicians sell to Americans; and then overlay what you are witnessing as those same multinationals now attack the foundation of our constitutional republic. All of this is CORPORATISM, a continuum that people were ignoring for decades… Now, thankfully, there is a new awakening.

Positive debate on solutions and constructive criticism of approach is always appropriate for our elected officials; heck, that is the essence of our discussion. However, recently there have been many critics of President Trump; many people only just now understanding the problem and proclaiming that President Trump specifically did not do enough to block, impede, stop and counteract the globalist forces that were/are aligned against his effort to Make America Great Again.

Hindsight is 20/20, but there are people who proclaim that Donald J Trump should have been more wise in his counsel; more selective in his cabinet; more forceful in his confrontation of corporate globalists. Let me be clear….

I will never join that crew of Trump critics because I have understood his adversary for decades. CTH did not just come around to the understanding of the enemy. CTH has been outlining the scope of the enemy, the scale of the specific war and the financial and economic power of the opposition for over a decade. We understand the totality of the effort it will take to stop decades of willful blindness amid the American people. We also see with clear eyes exactly what they are doing now, even with President Trump forcefully removed from office, to destroy the threat he still represents.

Donald J Trump was/is a walking red-pill; a “touchstone”: a visible, empirical test or criterion for determining the quality or genuineness of anything political. I have been deep enough into the network of the Deep State to understand the scale and scope of this enemy. To think that President Trump alone could carry the burden of correcting four decades of severe corruption of all things political, without simultaneously considering the scale of the financial opposition, is naive in the extreme.
