A farmer knows how humanely kill a cow with a single shot of a .22.

The NSW jacks wouldn’t have to anything other than to – milk the cow.

Salt is a poison, will wreck your kidneys, though vegetarians need it to cook rabbit food.
Try not to mention Vegemite around SpongeBob, it may get him excitable.

Sodium and chloride are essential nutrients. Salt will not wreck you kidneys, high blood pressure will do that. Salt does not always cause HBP. In fact the studies on HBP indicate that it is the sodium\potassium balance that is critical. Most people consume too much sodium and not enough potassium.

Duncanm those levels are so small as to be irrelevant.

P it is probably the B vitamins in Vegemite. Those can prevent cramps. It does suggest though that you may one of those people who have difficulty absorbing some B vitamins. Especially B12. That’s a guess of course but you might want to think about a B12 blood test.

After 3 months, 86% of the patients taking vitamin B had prominent remission of leg cramps, whereas those taking placebo had no significant difference from baseline. Treatment with vitamin B complex significantly reduced the frequency, intensity, and duration of nocturnal leg cramps. Because quinine is not without potential for side effects, and vitamin B complex is a relatively safe and effective alternative, clinicians should reconsider the treatment of choice for nocturnal leg cramps.

Now, back to Yellowstone. Not impressed so far but Costner does a good job in the lead role.

Unless you hit a cow between the eyes, it will get up.

It’ll definitely get up if you shoot it between the eyes.
The brain is higher up than that.
I wouldn’t use a 22 long on cattle but a 22 magnum is very efficient.
I put down sheep with a .17 HMR. The projectile penetrates very well and does plenty of fatal damage which is most kind.

Noted mincer and Savage Garden frontman (hurr)Darren Hayes is offended at being perceived as having the characteristics of a penis enthusiast, although he can certainly sit in that chair. Here he recalls the horror of having a music clip reviewed (the Hun):

Hayes said after Sony record executives in New York at the time saw the music video for his first single, Insatiable, they dropped their support for the record, even as it became a hit in Australia and the UK.

“It came from the top in New York and the message was, ‘He looks gay when he moves, so we have to reshoot that video, and don’t let him dance. We don’t know what to do with this’,” Hayes said.

This amuses me.

To be fair though, an angry cow will charge…
Yes, although rare, especially with a dairy cow used to being handled by humans. I tried to refrain from second guessing the police in this instance. But I can’t help but think this was uncalled for and a case of hammer meets nail. Could they not have called a vet?

Apparently a vegan do-gooder mob from Dayboro had hired a horse float, hitched it to some urban wagon and were going to catch and “save” the cow. They intended to take it back to their place and let it live out its life instead of, in their words, it being returned to the owner for it to be killed and eaten at some future date.

On arrival at the scene they displayed their cattle handling abilities by chasing the cow around for some thirteen (that’s 13!) hours trying to herd it onto the float. Apparently, the police eventually shot the exhausted and further traumatised beast. Instead of “saving” the cow, it’s now definitely dead, after being hounded to exhaustion by the feckless loonies.

As to the Vet -v- police shooting the cow question, I’m not sure all Vets are proficient shooters, if they shoot at all. In a country area, maybe, but this was the Gold Coast.

A simpler solution? Put out fresh water and a bale of hay for it, quietly erect portable yard panels around it while it’s eating with enough space to not alarm it, give it time to calm down and have a good feed and drink. Bring in a portable loading ramp along with the fencing, a truck with a couple of other cattle already on it to entice the cow on. Quietly move the fence panels in to move her towards the truck, and then show her the way up the ramp. Close the gate on the truck once she’s on, pack up the panels and ramp, and take the cow back home. Slow and steady. That might not have excited the vegan loonies, but the cow would have been rather better off.

Ed, I can guarantee to shoot a beast fair square right in the middle of the “X” (i.e. above the eye level) with a centre fire rifle, (.243 from preference) and it will get up & charge.
I also can guarantee to shoot one with a .22 rimfire and have it drop dead, like a puppet with the strings cut, every time.

They will inevitably end up as wet as the wet boots you just put back on, but that dry sock time is just heavenly. A good cuppa and a hot meal when you can get it helps too. 🙂

Pfizer’s COVID-19 Vaccine Goes Into Liver Cells and Is Converted to DNA: Study

“In this study we present evidence that COVID-19 mRNA vaccine BNT162b2 is able to enter the human liver cell line Huh7 in vitro,” the researchers wrote in the study, published in Current Issues of Molecular Biology. “BNT162b2 mRNA is reverse transcribed intracellularly into DNA as fast as 6 [hours] after BNT162b2 exposure.”

BNT162b2 is another name for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine that is marketed under the brand name Comirnaty.

The whole process occurred rapidly within six hours. The vaccine’s mRNA converting into DNA and being found inside the cell’s nucleus is something that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said would not happen.

“The genetic material delivered by mRNA vaccines never enters the nucleus of your cells,” the CDC said on its web page titled “Myths and Facts about COVID-19 Vaccines.”

I think Comirnaty is the fully approved version which is not in use for liability reasons, but is actually identical to the emergency approved version.

Winston, all I can think of is to run your garden water through the beer fridge.
30 feet or so (perhaps shorter) of copper pipe, coiled like a mat inside the beer fridge, run the garden hose into one end & out the other via a tap.

Depending on length of copper pipe & how often you open the beer fridge, this should in time of heat stress give water at a temp that won’t kill the frangipanis.

I know how hot water can get just from ambient temperature, I’ve actually given myself a scalded hand (i.e. a burn visible the next day) from the “cold” water tap in the pub in summertime.

I’ve read it. Interesting but many qualifiers. Read that because it is from actual patient cells not a cancer derived cell line which pretty much disqualifies the study from having any relevance in vitro because cancer cell lines often have very different gene activity especially as it is invitro. Not nearly as interesting as Footnote 25 in that study. Much more substantive and interesting piece of work that makes the same argument much more powerfully. Now … everybody panic!!!!

No-one listened to them and here we are.
Small compilation ? of these warnings, from Kissinger to Mearsheimer.

Delegations from 129 countries have reportedly been invited to attend the military forum. It’s not clear how much international participation the Anti-Fascist Congress will attract, at a time when the US and its allies are calling on countries around the world to punish and isolate Russia over the conflict in Ukraine.

Ukrainian MP Blows the Whistle on President Zelensky’s ‘Fascist Tactics’ of Using Civilians as ‘Human Shields’
Shane Trejo
Feb 28, 2022

Ukrainian Member of Parliament Illia Kyva is speaking out against Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s alleged military strategy of using civilians as “human shields.”

Kyva said these are “fascist tactics” and must be condemned. The Western Media is virtually silent, preferring to promote obvious hoaxes rather than actually investigate these shocking allegations.

Kyva’s untranslated remarks can be seen here:

— Russians With Attitude (@RWApodcast) February 28, 2022
The Russian government is making similar claims, alleging that Western media sources are drastically misrepresenting the nature of the conflict.

“Once again, I want to emphasize that the armed forces of the Russian Federation strike only at military targets. The civilian population is not in danger,” Russian defense ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said while making televised remarks.

“The leadership of Ukraine and the authorities of the city, having announced a curfew, are persuading the residents of the capital to stay in their homes. This once again proves that the Kyiv regime uses the residents of the city as a “human shield” for the nationalists who have deployed artillery units and military equipment in residential areas of the capital,” Konashenkov added.

Big League Politics has reported on how the globalists are all in for Ukraine as they see this as a major proxy war to hurt their enemy, Russian President Vladimir Putin:

“Globalist Billionaire George Soros has announced his support for Ukraine in the recent Russian-Ukrainian conflict that has taken the world by storm over the past several days.

On his personal website, Soros posted a mini essay stressing his upmost dedication to the post-Soviet nation and his disavowal of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“I have witnessed Ukraine transform from a collapsing part of the Soviet Union to a liberal democracy and an open society. It has faced countless acts of Russian aggression, but has persisted. Brave Ukrainians are now on the frontline and risking their lives in an onslaught that reminds me of the siege of Budapest in 1944 and the siege of Sarajevo in 1993. It is important that both the transatlantic alliance (the United States, Canada, the European Union, and the United Kingdom) but also other nations do whatever is in their power to support Ukraine in its time of existential threat. Putin’s actions are a direct attack on the sovereignty of all States that were once in the Soviet Union, and beyond. Russia is in clear violation of the United Nations charter and should be held accountable. Allowing Putin to succeed on his quest will send a message across the world that nations can simply be created or dissolved by brute force. We must stand with Ukraine, as they stand for us,” he said.

Soros interfering with the business of sovereign nations is nothing new, and he has become somewhat of a celebrity on our site over the years, with an extensive amount of articles detailing his cruel deeds throughout the world.

More recently in the United States, Big League Politics has reported on multiple Soros operations, including his recent $125 million donation to the Democrats and his efforts to defund the police.“

It is incredibly difficult to ascertain the truth of what is actually going on in Ukraine. However, the Western narrative that the incredibly corrupt puppet government installed via color revolution coup led by an actor are the heroes in this situation seems incredibly dubious.

Putin also wants the wealth that is generated there and is using the ‘NATO on our borders’ excuse to extend his.
The US State Department has been playing footsie there for years and the O’Biden/Harris Team have been getting as wealthy as hell from the corruption after the 2013/14 overthrow.
So there are three gangs squabbling over the money, and playing financial chicken with each other.
And, of course, the only losers will be the people ruled by the Tyrant Trio.

The West’s delusions about this war – and its failure to understand the enemy – will prevent it from saving Ukraine, writes military analyst

I’m not interested enough to read this piece by yet another hitherto-unknown ‘military analyst’, because frankly I’m not that interested in the fate of Ukraine. Its history over the past couple of millennia says that even if it was wiped from the map and (re) incorporated into Russia, or even Poland or Turkey tomorrow it would be a return to normal programming rather than an unprecedented, momentous event.

The Ukraine is a both a factory and clearing house for raw materials. Militarily and economically, it’s a gold mine – and it is no surprise that Adolf had the place at Number 1 on his list of lebensraum locations.

Don’t think for one single second that successive Ukrainian governments haven’t allowed themselves to be sponsored by either Russia or the West, in large part for financial recompense for those actually in those governments.

The current shitfight is exactly like a chick in a pub carpark trying to stand between both the blokes she’s been rooting without the other’s knowledge. There’s a lot of noise and the occasional ineffective slap or push, but she will inevitably get a right cross across the chops by one of them who’s aiming for the other – at which point she will play the victim.

Of course, this is made worse by what was described yesterday by Albrechtson as ‘Pollyanna politics’* – wishing everything was sunshine and meadows and rivers of Wild Turkey and choirs of puppies singing people off to work in the cloud factory, and which is also reflected in most of the cartoons this morning.

Successive Ukrainian ‘leadership groups’ are well aware of this and have been playing East and West off each other for cash or decades, all the while hoping they’ll never have to pay the piper. Well, the piper’s banging on the front door, he’s got a very spacious boot in the Statesman outside, and in that boot is a shovel.

*Apologies – I’ve forgotten who put that up. Great piece.

The press is either totally incompetent at the journalistic level, while the management above is all for the revival of Communism. The press is so left they could never walk a straight line in a DUI test. Even the London Financial Times has turned against the very financial system. They support the overthrow of capitalism and select stories to try to convince capitalists to surrender all their wealth for the good of Schwab’s agenda. We have lost independent news.

All I can say is always look deeper. Those in power ALWAYS want more power. Every way is propaganda.

The Ukrainians are just shelling innocent people for the hell of it?

Maybe, you don’t think Putin sent in irregular forces there to weaken the Ukrainian claim to those territories?

When Yeltsin was Russian President, why of the three arguably Russian regions, was the Crimea the only one that voted overwhelmingly to be part of Russia? There may well have been mistreatment of the ethnic Russians since then.

The unavoidable fact is that Putin has laid out a manifesto to the Russian people of empire and he doesn’t think Ukraine is a real country that should exist at all. That’sy problem with this “invasion was necessary” idea. It happens to go hand in hand with a stated aim of Russian irredentism.

If there is a case to be brought against the Ukrainian government or people, Putin wants to use that to Annex the whole place.

There is nothing per se wrong with “Greater Russia”, except Putin wants it by force. He’s wasting lives and wealth to get there. Why can’t he convince Ukraine let alone Belarus to rejoin Russia as provinces?

If South Ossetia and Dagestan were a threat, why were they a threat?

Credlin has a good piece in the Oz.

Well, not before time, facts have got in the way of their woke faith. In the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and its heroic response, the reset we really need is to dump our politically correct preoccupations and to start making ourselves militarily, economically and culturally stronger.

The Western world needs to appreciate that others don’t think like us. They’re not obsessed with reducing carbon dioxide emissions; they don’t think climate change is the “great moral challenge” of our time. They don’t fret over “unconscious bias” or “toxic masculinity”; they certainly don’t care about LGBT rights, pronouns or carbon footprints in their armed forces. And, instead of self-flagellating over the alleged wrongs they’ve done to others, they brood over the injustices supposedly inflicted on them: the “century of humil­iation” China endured at Western hands and the supposed geopolitical catastrophe that was the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Couple the West’s self-inflicted economic and cultural wounds with the “peace dividend” extracted from Western armed forces in the wake of winning the Cold War and the “end of history” complacency over the imagined triumph of liberal democracy, and it’s little wonder that revisionist powers such as Russia and China think now is the chance to take advantage of Western navel-gazing and internal divisions to change the status quo in their favour.

Well, not before time, facts have got in the way of their woke faith. In the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and its heroic response, the reset we really need is to dump our politically correct preoccupations and to start making ourselves militarily, economically and culturally stronger.

The Western world needs to appreciate that others don’t think like us.

She spends a fair bit of time saying how good and brave the Ukraine is, while arguing that the West has let itself down.

She should have finished by saying this is a warning to isolated countries like Australia, and what we need right now is a three carrier fixed wing navy, coupled with 12 nuclear submarines, stand-off nuclear missiles, a long-range bomber fleet, etc etc etc

They “ban” RT, instead of quoting it and showing where and how it’s propaganda.
They do not display Putin’s reasons or reasoning.
They ignore the massive corruption and debt in the Ukraine, and how massively the elite like Soros, Clinton and Biden have profited from it.
These is not the actions of people on the side of truth.
These is not the actions of an independent media holding government and industrial giants to account.
These are the actions of the propaganda arm of a ruling elite massively disconnected from the average people of the population.

Confused Old Man Yells at Nation for an Hour

3,720 seconds of lies, fearmongering, and malapropisms.

A confused political hack from Delaware staged a one-man insurrection by invading the sacred precincts of the Capitol building, hijacking all the TV networks, and yelling that the planet would be destroyed unless we gave him all our money so he could burn it and turn it into green energy.

Joseph Robinette Biden Jr, who loves the sound of his voice more than his crackhead son or the bastard grandchild of a stripper, had already inflicted the second longest opening address in the history of this nation with a 2021 marathon address that killed more brain cells than meth.

Like the star of a slasher movie sequel, Biden Jr., returned to ramble through a worse sequel, but kept it down to a mere hour and two minutes of torture. The two minutes are significant because when you have to endure the Vogon poetry of word salads, non-sequiturs, mumbles, grumbles, malapropisms, and random interjections, 120 extra seconds is an eternity.

During those 3,720 seconds of lies, fearmongering, and malapropisms, Biden took credit for defeating COVID, Putin, and the English language. While viruses and nations can’t be defeated with hot air, English never stands a chance once Biden’s mouth gets its slimy tongue on it.

The following is part of the microcosm of what is wrong in the West. You are targeted if you deviate from the official line, particularly anything to do with the rainbow lobby. So we now see Maria Folau being targeted for ruination and destruction, all for the crime of supporting and standing by her husband. Maria Folau is guilty by association and therefore she must to be smeared, silenced and destroyed. Where have we seen this before, this is exactly what happened in Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany and in other totalitarian regimes. If you stand by your husband/wife/parent/grandparent/uncle/aunt/sister/brother when they’re accused of wrong think, then you better watch yourself, because if you don’t come out and condemn that wrong think, you will be targeted and you too are a malignant stain on our society and must be destroyed.

Worth remembering that the female Muslim AFL player, who a few weeks ago refused to wear that jersey, didn’t suffer similar wrath. Odd that.

This shit is from The Oz….note the hyperbole, the gaslighting. I note comments are closed, funny that.


“Super Netball 2022: Queensland Firebirds claim potential Maria Folau signing could affect players

Super Netball club Queensland Firebirds have made the extraordinary claim that “adverse media attention” could affect their playing group in relation to the potential signing of Maria Folau.

News Corp broke the story earlier this week that the club was considering signing Folau – wife of controversial rugby star Israel Folau – as a temporary replacement player for Romelda George (nee Aiken) who is pregnant with her first child.

It is the only story that has appeared on the subject, apart from a follow-up with former Australian Diamonds player Sharon Finnan-White appealing to the club to sign rising Indigenous star Donnell Wallam to the spot.

But reaction to the possibility of Folau joining the club has been firm, with hundreds of fans reacting with dismay.

Many have threatened to withdraw membership or support of the club if Folau is signed, especially if Wallam – who starred at last weekend’s Team Girls Cup and is currently on a temporary training deal – is overlooked in favour of the retired 35-year-old.

The club on Monday said Folau had not signed a contract. However, they have not denied they are in discussions with the 150-Test New Zealand representative.

The latest comments, made in the first of a regular “Coaches Corner” column with mentor Megan Anderson, do not mention Folau by name, with the club still refusing to acknowledge she could come on board.

Folau is one of the best players of her generation.

However, her endorsement of her husband’s religious and homophobic beliefs makes her a lightning rod for controversy.

Now 35 and having been in retirement for more than two years, Folau’s signing would be extraordinary and the interest in the Firebirds’ decision is understandable.

Folau, the wife of controversial cross-code football star Israel Folau, who was sacked by Rugby Australia in 2019 after he posted a meme on social media warning that homosexuals would go to hell unless they repented their sins, retired that same year after a decorated career that included 150 caps for New Zealand’s Silver Ferns.

“As a club we will continue to discuss all options until absolutely confident in our decision.

“Out of professional courtesy and for commercial reasons, we don’t comment on contractual negotiations.”

While she is now 35 and a mother, few have doubts that Folau could return to the elite level.

But her signing would be controversial.

The deeply religious Folau stood by her husband during a protracted and divisive legal battle with Rugby Australia and reposted a fundraising campaign for his legal fees to her social media channels during her last Super Netball stint, sparking debate about whether she was endorsing his homophobic messages.

New Zealand netball sponsor ANZ released a statement saying: “we do not support the views of Silver Fern Maria Folau and have made our views known to her employer Netball NZ”, while former Diamonds captain Liz Ellis criticised Netball Australia and the Thunderbirds for their support of Folau’s right to use her social media accounts to promote her husband’s views.

If Folau was signed this season, it would raise questions about whether a contract would come with conditions around her use of social media, or whether the goaler would agree to play in every game considering the Firebirds proudly pioneered a gay pride match, which will be held again this year against Collingwood.

Asked if Netball Australia would register a contract for Folau, chief executive Kelly Ryan said: “In line with the league’s competition rules, teams are responsible for their list management processes”.

Has The Great Global Food War Just Begun?

If you remove the raw material fertilizer products from China, Belarus, Russia and now Ukraine from the global marketplace, that’s over two-thirds of the total global supply gone. As bumbling Joe would say, “That’s a big effen’ deal,” big enough to create havoc when it comes to the 2022 farm growing season in just about every country.

Apply hindsight and the answer seems obvious, yes.

Overlay what we have previously discussed about the geopolitical dynamic of the BRICS group (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa).

BRICS is a key strategic geopolitical trade partnership that was created during Obama, was weakened during Trump, and now with Obama back at the helm of globalist advancement – likely way more important. The core of BRICS’ purpose is a countermeasure against the coordination of globalist multinational corporations. BRICS is somewhat an anti-WEF assembly.

Do you remember everyone getting mad at India for not supporting the U.N Security Council resolution against the Russian invasion of Ukraine? Well, again, apply hindsight. Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) have a strategic geopolitical relationship framed around trade.

Given the scale of their population, food security is a BIG issue for India. If we are about to enter a food war, specifically where food now becomes a national security issue, there’s no way India would want to be on the short end of that conflict.

Things are sketchy as heck right now, because this food war picture is pretty clear.

However, if the BRICS group join in a digital trade currency together, which would effectively negate any sanctions the rest of the world might attempt, we can katy-bar the door, because actual rockets and missiles come next. The U.S./EU/UN message will shift from Putin killing Ukrainians, to Putin/Xi starving the world.

‘Great Reset’ architect backs Ukraine

The World Economic Forum (WEF) and its chairman, Klaus Schwab, have thrown their support behind Ukraine, vowing to do “whatever is possible to help” the country against Russian “aggression.”

In the statement on Sunday, Schwab – the author of ‘Covid-19: The Great Reset’ – and WEF President Borge Brende said they “deeply condemn the aggression by Russia against Ukraine” and “the attacks and atrocities.”

“Our full solidarity is with Ukraine’s people and all those who are suffering innocently from this totally unacceptable war,” they stated.

“We only hope that – in the longer-term – reason will prevail and that the space for bridge-building and reconciliation once more emerges,” they said, joining NATO, the European Commission, the UN chief, and other Western powers in publicly condemning Russia’s military action in Ukraine.

A Long Excellent Summary of Klaus Schwab

F@scism was all about using the state to protect and advance the interests of the wealthy elite.

Schwab was continuing this approach when in 1971 he founded the European Management Forum, which held annual meetings at Davos in Switzerland.

Here he promoted his ideology of “stakeholder” capitalism in which businesses were brought into closer co-operation with government.

“Stakeholder capitalism” is described by Forbes business magazine as “the notion that a firm focuses on meeting the needs of all its stakeholders: customers, employees, partners, the community, and society as a whole”.

Even in the context of a particular business, it is invariably an empty label. As the Forbes article notes, it actually only means that “firms can go on privately shoveling money to their shareholders and executives, while maintaining a public front of exquisite social sensitivity and exemplary altruism”.

But in a general social context, the stakeholder concept is even more nefarious, discarding any idea of democracy, rule by the people, in favour of rule by corporate interests.

Society is no longer regarded as a living community but as a business, whose profitability is the sole valid aim of human activity.

Judge Unseals 400 Pages of Evidence, Clears Way for Pfizer Whistleblower Lawsuit

For instance, Jackson alleges:

“From 2020 to the present, Defendants [Ventavia and Pfizer] knowingly made, used, or caused to be made or used, false records or statements that were material to false and/or fraudulent claims paid or approved by the United States [Department of Defense, or DoD]. These false records or statements include the clinical trial protocol Pfizer submitted to the United States and the falsified source documents and data behind Defendants’ trial results and EUA application.

“By creating and carrying out their fraudulent schemes, Defendants knowingly and repeatedly violated … the False Claims Act. Defendants’ false records were material to Pfizer’s claims for payment for the vaccine at issue. The United States DoD would not have paid Pfizer if it knew that the clinical trial protocol was not complied with by Defendants, because the protocol violations call the integrity and validity of both the entire clinical trial and Pfizer’s EUA into question.

“Defendants’ false records also went to the very essence of the bargain the United States contracted for. DoD contracted to purchase vaccines found effective by a valid clinical trial conducted according to the protocol submitted by Pfizer. The integrity of the entire clinical trial was compromised by the trial protocol violations, false source documents, and the false data that resulted, which calls the vaccine’s EUA into question. Had the United States DoD known of Defendants’ false records, it would not have paid Pfizer.

“Defendants’ use, or causation of use, of material false records was a foreseeable factor in the United States DoD’s loss and a consequence of Defendants’ schemes. By virtue of Defendants’ actions, the United States DoD has suffered actual damages and is entitled to recover treble damages plus a civil monetary penalty for each false and/or fraudulent claim.”

From Old Ozzie’s link

However, it certainly appears that world leaders are deliberately pushing us into World War III. In Slovakia, it’s now a crime to express any “acceptance of support” of the Russian actions or of their leaders, and special police commandos are hunting down people who do so in public offline or online. The punishment is 10-25 years in prison or up to a maximum of life. The Czech Republic is adopting the same law, but the punishment will be 1 to 3 years in prison. This is obviously inviting war, for this is ending any discussion or negotiation.

Does anyone still have a copy of the meme of Obama’s 16 year plan, which was disrupted by Trump’s election? They WANT WWIII. I saw something similar written last century which predicted WWI and WWII and said that the third one would finish the plan of subjugating the world. I wish I still had the link. It was pretty frightening how accurate (and evil) it was.

This is one of the reasons why Pakistan has been pretty supportive of Russia over the past week or so.
And the reason why Turkey is up on it’s hind legs.
All it took was a war for the US to give Iran everything they wanted.
Another positive for the US arms industry.

Oil Prices Pass $112 Barrel, OPEC Holding Firm, Here Comes $7 Gasoline
March 2, 2022 | sundance | 314 Comments

Everything including oil, natural gas, wheat, and fertilizer is skyrocketing in price right now. Ten- and twenty-year records are being eclipsed, as energy prices are soaring on the back of oil flirting with $114 a barrel. Unfortunately, here comes more inflationary pain, and everything is being blamed on the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Toward the end of last year, we warned that fertilizer costs were going to harvest costs in 2022 (field to fork, go deep), long before Ukraine came into the picture. Unfortunately, future wheat prices reached $10.59 a bushel today, the highest since March 2008. Additionally, corn prices have passed their highest rate since December 2012.

It may seem like those crops are not that important. However, keep in mind that corn, wheat and soybeans represent the baseline for not only grain production in the U.S, but they are also the primary feed products for proteins: chicken, pork and beef. We are going to feel this second wave surge at the grocery store. Hopefully everyone has prepped.

Additionally, oil prices have jumped to near eight-year highs. Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, rose as high as $113.94 a barrel, the highest since June 2014, and has been trading around $111 for most of the day. If you were paying $4/gal for gas, these oil rates add around another .50¢ today alone. Yes, you read that correctly, inbound tankers of gasoline will offload at your convenience store at a rate ten percent higher than yesterday.

Making matters worse, the Joe Biden energy policy -focused almost exclusively on green energy- is making any investment in domestic oil production tenuous at best. The major oil companies are wary of spending money for U.S. energy development in a climate where the U.S. government is specifically against that effort.
