Replying to @JohnKitover_
The video features Catherine Austin Fitts on the 2019 Jackson Hole meeting. Central bankers gather there yearly. BlackRock published a public paper proposing "going direct" money injection for downturns. Fed repo interventions began Sept 2019. Pandemic QE and lockdowns were large-scale, later inflationary, and favored big firms over small ones. The claim of a deliberate "reset" using health policy as excuse is her interpretation, not established fact.

Winners stay. Losers hide. The empty podium speaks for itself. Stratton refused to talk to press post- debate.

In the fluorescent glow of a late-night gas station, an improbable assembly of figures gathers as if the universe itself has lost its filter. At the center stands a smiling Pope Francis, Hennessy bottle raised like a monstrance, while a shirtless Vladimir Putin crouches nearby with the focused intensity of a man who has never once considered the concept of a casual evening. Cristiano Ronaldo grins in a Portugal tracksuit, radiating the easy confidence of someone who has already won whatever contest this is supposed to be. Tupac, bandana tilted, flashes hand signs beside a bouncing Pillsbury Doughboy whose chefโ€™s hat remains inexplicably perfect amid the chaos. A towering Kool-Aid Man looms in the back, red pitcher body catching the station lights, while a fur-hatted figure and a blonde man in sunglasses complete the mismatched chorus. The woman in the lace dress and the man in the white Supreme hoodie stand as quiet witnesses to the absurdity. No single narrative binds themโ€”no shared ideology, no common destinationโ€”yet their presence together feels strangely inevitable, like characters from separate films who wandered onto the same set and decided to stay. In the harsh light under the Shell canopy, they form a living collage of power, celebrity, cartoon excess, and pure randomness, a group that should not exist and yet, for one frozen night, does.

All dualities come from ignorant inference. They are like dreams or flowers in air - foolish to try to grasp them. Gain and loss, right and wrong, such thoughts must finally be abolished at once. If the eye never sleeps, all dreams will naturally cease. If the mind makes no discriminations, the ten thousand things are as they are, of single essence. To understand the mystery of this One-essence is to be released from all entanglements. When all things are seen equally the timeless Self-essence is reached, No comparisons or analogies are possible in this causeless, relationless state. Consider movement stationary and the stationary in motion, both movement and rest disappear. When such dualities cease to exist Oneness itself cannot exist. To this ultimate finality no law or description applies. For the unified mind in accord with the way all self-centered striving ceases. Doubts and irresolutions vanish and life in true faith is possible. With a single stroke we are freed from bondage: Nothing clings to us and we hold to nothing. All is empty, clear, self-illuminating, with no exertion of the mind's power. Here thought, feeling, knowledge and imagination are of no value. In this world of suchness there is neither self nor other-than-self. To come directly into harmony with this reality just say when doubt rises "not two". In this "not two" nothing is separate, nothing is excluded. No matter when or where, enlightenment means entering this truth. And this truth is beyond extension or diminution in time and space: In it a single thought is ten thousand years. Emptiness here, emptiness there, but the infinite universe stands always before your eyes. Infinitely large and infinitely small; no difference, for definitions have vanished and no boundaries are seen. So too with Being and non-Being. Don't waste time in doubts and arguments That have nothing to do with this. One thing, all things, move among and intermingle without distinction. To live in this realization is to be without anxiety about non-perfection. To live in this faith is the road to non-duality, because the non-dual is one with the trusting mind. Words! The Way is beyond language, for in it there is no yesterday no tomorrow no today. Translated from the Chinese by Richard B. Clarke Featured in Jack Kornfield, Teachings of the Buddha โ€“ at Harwood Heights, IL

The Third Patriarch of Zen Hsin Hsin Ming by Seng-T'san The Great Way is not difficult for those who have no preferences. When love and hate are both absent everything becomes clear and undisguised. Make the smallest distinction, however, and heaven and earth are set infinitely apart. If you wish to see the truth then hold no opinions for or against anything. To set up what you like against what you dislike is the disease of the mind. When the deep meaning of things is not understood, the mind's essential peace is disturbed to no avail. The Way is perfect like vast space where nothing is lacking and nothing in excess. Indeed, it is due to our choosing to accept or reject that we do not see the true nature of things. Live neither in the entanglements of outer things, nor in inner feelings of emptiness. Be serene in the oneness of things and such erroneous views will disappear by themselves. When you try to stop activity by passivity your very effort fills you with activity. As long as you remain in one extreme or the other you will never know Oneness. Those who do not live in the single Way fail in both activity and passivity, assertion and denial. To deny the reality of things is to miss their reality; To assert the emptiness of things is to miss their reality. The more you talk and think about it, the further astray you wander from the truth. Stop talking and thinking, and there is nothing you will not be able to know. To return to the root is to find meaning, but to pursue appearances is to miss the source. At the moment of inner enlightenment there is a going beyond appearance and emptiness. The changes that appear to occur in the empty world we call real only because of our ignorance. Do not search for the truth; only cease to cherish opinions. do not remain in the dualistic state. Avoid such pursuits carefully. If there is even a trace of this and that, of right and wrong, the mind-essence ewill be lost in confusion. Although all dualities come from the One, do not be attached even to this One. When the mind exists undisturbed in the Way, nothing in the world can offend. And when a thing can no longer offend, it ceases to exist in the old way. When no discriminating thoughts arise, the old mind ceases to exist. When thought objects vanish, the thinking-subject vanishes: As when the mind vanishes, objects vanish. Things are objects because of the subject (mind): the mind (subject) is such because of things (object). Understand the relativity of these two and the basic reality: the unity of emptiness. In this Emptiness the two are indistinguishable and each contains in itself the whole world. If you do not discriminate between coarse and fine you will not be tempted to prejudice and opinion. To live in the Great Way is neither easy nor difficult. But those with limited views are fearful and irresolute: the faster they hurry, the slower they go. And clinging (attachment) cannot be limited: Even to be attached to the idea of enlightenment is to go astray. Just let things be in their own way and there will be neither coming not going. Obey the nature of things (your own nature) and you will walk freely and undisturbed. When the thought is in bondage the truth is hidden for everything is murky and unclear. And the burdensome practice of judging brings annoyance and weariness. What benefit can be derived from distinctions and separations? If you wish to move in the One Way do not dislike even the world of senses and ideas. Indeed, to accept them fully is identical with enlightenment. The wise man strives to no goals but the foolish man fetters himself. There is one Dharma, not many. Distinctions arise from the clinging needs of the ignorant. To seek Mind with the (discriminating) mind is the greatest of all mistakes. Rest and unrest derive from illusion; with enlightenment there is no liking and disliking.

Fellow Chicagoans, property owners, and taxpayers: I stand before you today as John Kitover, candidate for Mayor of Chicago. I am a Citadel graduate, a U.S. Army veteran, a member of American Legion Post 777, and a lifelong resident who has watched this city bleed under the control of Liberal Progressive Pluralist Democrats. Chicago is more than $100 billion in debt when you add the bonds, the unfunded pension liabilities that now exceed $36 billion for the cityโ€™s four funds alone, the Chicago Public Schools obligations, and the rest of the legacy burdens. The official long-term debt sits near $30 billion. Pensions are funded at roughly 28 cents on the dollarโ€”police and fire closer to 25 percent. Every new property-tax dollar raised since 2014 has gone almost entirely to pensions while services decline and middle-class families are taxed out of their own homes. This is not an accident. It is the result of decades of deliberate choices by the Democratic machine and its progressive wing. They skipped the bills, sweetened the benefits, locked the promises into the state constitution, borrowed for operations, expanded patronage, and treated taxpayers as an endless source of revenue. Sanctuary policies, unfunded mandates, and ideological experiments have diverted billions while crime rises and neighborhoods empty. They call it equity. Property-tax payers call it theftโ€”theft of their savings, their equity, and their childrenโ€™s future. The fiscal crisis is already destroying lives. Property taxes have more than doubled. Families who worked, bought homes, and paid their bills are now forced to sell or leave. Businesses close or flee. The city faces structural deficits measured in the hundreds of millions every year. Credit ratings hover near junk. If we continue on this path, the bill will fall hardest on the people who still own property and still pay the taxes that keep the lights on. I say: Resist. Fight. Take action. We will cut property taxes by 50 percent. That is not a slogan; it is a hard budget target. We will freeze the levy in year one, impose zero-based budgeting so every dollar must justify itself, end borrowing for operations, and eliminate waste.. instagram.com/reel/Depc1hpKVโ€ฆ โ€“ at Harwood Heights, IL
