This needed to be said.

By Chuck Baldwin Comment by PCR:   I am worried that in his meeting with Putin Trump will blow up as he often does, and the die will be cast.  There is a lot of hope placed on the Trump-Putin meeting,  No one seems to realize the danger. Where others see hope, I see danger.

This meeting has aspects of a set-up.  If Trump wants peace, why did he just deploy more Ohio class submarines closer to Russia?  Why did he just return the intermediate-range missiles, which Reagan had removed, to Europe? What does it mean when the US director of plans for strategic command says, “We’re ready to have a nuclear war with Russia, and we’re going to win.”

If Trump wants peace, why did he raise the nuclear threat to Russia?  Is this Trump’s practice of bluffing them into submission? As A.J.P. Taylor shows in his histories of both World Wars, bluffs produce wars.

Trump bemoans all the people being killed in Ukraine, but he does nothing to stop the killing in Palestine.  Let’s pray he doesn’t convince Putin that there is no security for Russia.

Has Trump renounced Washington’s hegemony?  No.  He asserted it:
“I rule America and the world.”

Has Trump ceased to serve the profits and power of the US military/security complex?  No.  He has just completed a deal with Europe to purchase hundreds of billions of dollars of American weapons for Ukraine. Will the purchases take place and the profits be realized if peace is achieved?

Can peace prevail over the American doctrine of hegemony and the power and profit of the US military/security complex?

In Britain, you can’t leave your house empty while you go on holiday. It will be full of invaders when you return. The police will do nothing to help you.

This will be the final blow to tourism in or from the UK.

Hi Lew,

Why stop at the penny or even the nickel? We should drop everything less than a dollar. Based on silver value, a quarter is the new penny, and based on gold value, the two dollar is the new penny. Let’s make it simple – make the dollar the new penny.Personally, I would prefer a return to coins, best done by redenominating the dollar by 100x, making a penny the value of today’s dollar. Other countries do it, why can’t we? Is it too dangerous to point out the emperor has no clothes? Alas, I can dream can’t I?

Dear Sir:

With the 80th anniversary, the apologists for the uranium (Hiroshima) and plutonium (Nagasaki) bombs will be at it again. Same procedure as last year. Same procedure as every year.

While Japan was ready to surrender, they were dragging their feet, and they were preparing massive troops for defense of the homeland.

But who would be surprised at that? The Allies were basically saying that they would reshape Japan in their image. Why would not the Japanese, a regime fearing extinction, drag its feet and fight desperately for its life?

Without the unconditional-surrender concept in the first place, we might not have had an American redesign of the Japanese state. Japan might have kept a monarchy in a more real sense. While not a Western monarchy, that might not have been such a bad thing. And a better balance in the region might have given another outcome of the Chinese civil war.

Bataan Death March, 

My Mom, who is 93, told me this story years ago. Mom had driven her black Jaguar sports car from Kansas City up to southern Minnesota to visit her relatives. Mom told me the oil light came on somewhere in Iowa, so she pulled into a gas station. The mechanic looked under the hood and told my Mom that he didn’t have a clue how to fix the British car.

My Mom drove on to southern Minnesota with no problems.

Mom stayed in Minneapolis and drove out to the small towns of her relatives. There, she found out that her Uncle Scrubby had died. Mom told me that Uncle Scrubby was a good guy. He was always kind. They called him Scrubby because he was short.

Uncle Scrubby had joined the Army before WWII. He was in the regular Army and stationed in the Philippines when the Japanese invaded. His company surrendered to the Japs and then had to endure the Bataan Death March. 

Uncle Scrubby spent WWII in a Japanese POW camp outside of Manila. I think the fact that he was short and needed fewer calories of food to live kept him alive. 

After the war, Scrubby was shipped home. His widow told my Mom that Uncle Scrubby was a skeleton. He slowly put on weight and went to work in the small town.

Scrubby’s widow told my Mom that every night for over 60 years after the war, Scrubby would scream in his sleep.

Lew,

What has happened to The Kate Dalley Show? Kate absolutely loves you, the Mises Institute, Ron Paul, Mises President Tom DiLorenzo and Tom Woods, and all of you have been guests on her podcast. 

Kate’s last show was July 3rd and I miss it. For the last few months, her analysis of the spiritual battle embroiling us, world events, the threat of global government and the emerging technocracy, and Trump the Trojan Horse were becoming so astute I looked forward to each and every one of her podcasts. 

On July 3rd in a three minute “Where’s My Show?” segment, she announced to her audience her show was ending, hinted at the reasons why, while promising she was trying to figure out how to return to the airwaves. Link:

https://www.katedalleyshow.com/podcast/

The resonance, clarity and acoustic patterns of her voice made her very listenable. She has the rare gift to deliver serious and at times dire information without losing her sense of humor. Her courage, strong Christian faith and delight in being a wife, mother and grandmother make her someone I greatly admire.

While Kate has no updates on the return of her show, she is still posting on X and Instagram. Her X posts are promoting a 13-page report she did based on 35,000 hours of research on holistic ways to fight cancer, and I find it very useful. Link:

I listened to one terrific interview she did with you, Lew, again today. I regularly read your writings and have witnessed your public speeches which are always carefully prepared, but today I am reminded of what a powerful, informative and delightful impromptu verbal communicator you are. Link:

Hi Lew,

Paul Singer, who contributed mightily to the campaign to defeat Thomas Massie, is a hedge fund manager, a corporate pirate, and I believe, the heir to the Singer Sewing Machine fortune. He’s an asshole in my opinion. Tucker Carlson did an episode on his 

Fox TV show about how Singer forced the Sale of Cabela’s.

Paul Singer Cabela’s

• Paul Singer: Billionaire founder of Elliott Management, an activist hedge fund that acquired an 11% stake in Cabela’s in 2015 and pressured the company to explore a sale, stating it should be sold through a public auction process and indicating it was prepared to take further steps if the company did not engage in a sales process.

Following the announcement of Cabela’s sale to Bass Pro Shops in 2016, Elliott Management sold its shares, reportedly making at least $90 million. The sale followed pressure from Elliott Management, which began after it disclosed its stake in 2015. The transaction provided Cabela’s shareholders with a 19.2% premium over the closing price on September 30, 2016, and a 40% premium over the December 1, 2015 closing price. Prior to the sale, Cabela’s was profitable, generating over $1 billion annually.

Cabela’s: Nebraska-based outdoor equipment retailer headquartered in Sidney, which was acquired by Bass Pro Shops in a $5.5 billion cash deal finalized in 2017.
