My Dear Friends, and, yes, Enemies, Happy New Year. As has been our tradition these many years, it’s time to register our predictions for the coming year. We looked at how well we did last year last Friday. Going against the trend, we did very well!
1) We will begin to see the first “If you received a Pfizer or Moderna MRNA vaccination, you may be entitled to compensation” ads from our esteemed ambulance chasing legal community, who are only concerned with your well being. (Jumped the gun and posted this yesterday).
2. SBF will be tried and convicted to serve minimal time in one of the Club Fed prisons, but no names will be named and no further details will be provided about his Democratic Party money laundering scheme. Or he will die of “unknown causes” whilst in custody, and there won’t be a single witness, video recording or bit of evidence, ala Epstein.
3. None of the Republican House investigations will make a dent in the Biden crime family. Hunter will not testify before any of the various committees and (hedging my bet here) if subpoenaed and questioned, will plead Dave Chappelle’s favorite amendment, the Fif (Fifth)!
4. Inflation will somehow remain right around where it is now for all of 2023 through typical governmental accounting chicanery. However, blame will now shift to the Republican Party beginning this month and continuing for the next 2 years.
5. Daffy Uncle Joe will serve out his term (being hopped up on goofballs always helps) and be nominated for a second term. Because you don’t throw away your ventriloquist dummy just because it’s got a bit of paint peeling off.
1. Vice President Harris resigns. President Biden names a new VP chosen by the powers that be. Said swamp creature is promptly confirmed by a majority in both houses and becomes new VP. President Biden then resigns.
2. China invades Taiwan. US responds with sanctions, fiery rhetoric, threats to send AOC, but not militarily.
3. Faltering industry leads to high unemployment in Europe. Coupled with inflation and food & fuel shortages, massive civil unrest erupts.
4. A major (US, UK, EU, Japan, Canada, Australia) government or central bank bans cryptocurrency (expect CBDC, natch).
5. A man-made microbe, affecting a specific human genetic group (e.g. race, ethnicity or specific markers), is discovered in the wild.
1. A Normal American, pushed to his limits by anti-whiteness and an increasingly obvious 2-tiered society, makes an assassination attempt on some democrat politician--mayor, governor, bottom-feeding congress creature. Calls from the left for gun control will be deafening.
2. The war in Ukraine expands. Polish troops will join the fray, with encouragement from the US.
3. Just before Christmas, a cyberattack will shut down a power grid in a major American city. Putin will be blamed, though the perpetrators will be Deep State actors.
4. Gas prices will reach record highs again.
5. A tactical nuke will be used in Ukraine or SE Poland. Not sure when...will hold on to this for 2024 prediction too.
1. Ukraine retakes the south, and comes within striking distance of retaking Crimea.
(Test: Ukraine retakes Melitopol)
2. By the end of the year Putin is removed by his own circle and replaced by a more extreme figure (but it won't help them).
(Test: Putin no longer holds any of the top two posts by Jan 1 2024 (now count: president, PM; if they introduce new ones, count the top two))
3. EU successfully manages the energy crisis this winter.
(Test: Not a single planned blackout occurs in Western Europe (Jan-Apr), those with clearly proven technical reasons or sabotage don't count)
4. Several EU countries announce a shift to nuclear as the main focus of their energy policy.
(Test: At least 2 EU countries make such announcement; Sweden doesn't count)
5. Negative consequences of covid vaccines do not reach societal scale (yet).
(Test/neg: At least one article mentioning increased excess mortality or drop in birthrates in an EU country, UK, or USA, with covid vaccines suggested as a possible cause, is published during the year in NYT, WaPo or Guardian (that's simply my definition of "can't be ignored anymore"))
Happy New Year! And I wish freedom to everyone who seeks it!

1. The world continues falling into a major depression as various economic bubbles pop (stock market, real estate, crypto) and the middle and lower classes get squeezed hard by continued inflation, particularly in food and energy (how prescient was Klaus Scwab in his 2020 Great Reset speech). We'll begin to see countries rolling out various forms of assistance in the form of vouchers / subsidies for specific commodities (much like food stamps) or universal basic income. This will also occur in WEF affiliated states (think NY, CA, IL, etc) and also likely at a federal level. If you take the money, DO NOT BECOME DEPENDENT ON IT. Invest it instead on becoming independent.
2. The economic aid from above will most likely be offered through some sort of digital means if at all possible. In the US, it will be issued into your Fed Wallet or Fed Now system. Its possible, however, such aid rolls out like prior aid in the form of direct stimulus checks. If so, at some point, once dependency is firmly established, citizens will be required to get a digital ID to continue receiving the money. This will be to end the rampant fraud, abuse, and other problems that occur in the initial stages.
3. Saudi Arabia joins BRICS and the BRICS nations begin trading oil outside of the swift / dollar system, with oil likely pegged to gold. Western nations tumble deeper into recession.
4. Crypto regulations incoming due to FTX fallout - these regs likely lay the legal and/or regulatory groundwork necessary for the Federal Reserve to later issue CBDC.
5. China invades Taiwan. This has several important implications, primarily throwing supply chains into complete chaos, on top of the worsening energy / food problems blamed on Ukraine.
6. Before the covid narrative and vaccine fraud can completely unravel, the pandemic just war-gamed in Oct. 2022 by Gates et al comes to fruition. The fear and pressure tactics are so great the government will not need to persecute the non-compliant; their neighbors, friends, and family will gladly do it for them. In the US, this means fighting, and emergency powers are invoked to confiscate guns. The government is conveniently precise, however, in who gets visits.
Extra-credit:
Within 5 years, a major cyber-attack occurs that cannot be allowed to happen again. A war on cyber terror ensues, resulting in digital IDs being needed to access the internet. A nuke gets detonated somewhere on the planet. A major international scandal occurs that is later revealed to have been the result of deepfake AI - I'm talking something capable of taking down a head of state.

Yikes. Don’t take this the wrong way, but I hope 2,3 and 5 are wrong!
Me too!
I have the thousand yard stare, after these last 3 years...
Belay that, I hope all of them are wrong!
1. Cold spring and summer in Europe surprises everybody and leads to low agricultural yields
(A wild guess)
2. The energy crisis in Europe gets worse as governments do nothing
(Likely)
3. Stagflation in Europe with all it's negative consequences
(Extremely likely)
4. mRNA vaccines jabs for Covid-19 plummets and billions of doses must be discarded (and is from now on only recommended for the 70+)
(Very likely)
5. German car manufactures shut down at least one production facility in Germany, and moves to China.
(Likely)
From the other side of the planet...
1. Ukraine retakes the south, and comes within striking distance of retaking Crimea.
(Test: Ukraine retakes Melitopol)
2. By the end of the year Putin is removed by his own circle and replaced by a more extreme figure (but it won't help them).
(Test: Putin no longer holds any of the top two posts by Jan 1 2024 (now count: president, PM; if they introduce new ones, count the top two))
