(Shoebat Sunday Special) The response of governments around the world to the COVID-19 crisis has resulted in the shuttering of economies and the shattering of business and long-standing trade agreements as well as monetary policy. The most shocking of all the declarations to come from this has been the US decision to spend 40% of […]

By Theodore Shoebat Global conflict will follow a series of steps. We have already seen some of these steps and Covid-19 is the current one:

Recently I had to go Home Depot and I noticed that the store has started limiting access to a set number of customers at a time. This pattern was not just with Home Depot, but has been spreading to “big box” stores across the country, as AP News reports concerning the retail giant Walmart: Walmart […]

The new smartphones are very useful tools for many things. However, they also allow for people to be traced very easily. According to a story from Business Insider, a new phone tracing program that promises anonymity may be used to determine if, based on a person’s movements, a man has been exposed to somebody with […]

The infamous US State and Security adviser Henry Kissinger, who seems never to leave the scene of American geopolitical conflict, recently wrote a piece for the Wall Street Journal in which he outright states that COVID-19 is permanently altering the ‘world order’. The surreal atmosphere of the Covid-19 pandemic calls to mind how I felt […]

Years ago, I remember a former high school classmate who joined the military and served as a soldier in the Iraq war. He was at both Fallujah and Karbala, and he saw a lot of fighting. Twice he was shot in the head and was saved only by his Kevlar helmet. However, the incidents he […]

Since the 2007-2008 financial crisis, the political banter has often been about “jobs.” However, the talk of “jobs” is just a cover for the real economic problem, which is the massive expansion of debt with no mathematical way to pay it that is working in combination with a desire for cheap labor and competition from […]

There are a lot of people who have said that they would “fight” against any changes to their way of life. But the recent events with the COVID-19 coronavirus have proven this to be an elaborate LARP, as the Washington Times reports, for people are not only stopping completely their previous way of life, but […]

Hard times are coming to the US. According to a new study reported by StudyFinds, one quarter of Americans have no savings, and almost another quarter have enough to survive on for only three week, which takes on a new dimension of seriousness in the light of the current situation with the COVID-19 coronavirus. A […]

There has been a pattern of behavior, starting with the kind of “social credit” monitoring in China, that has spread to Russia and Europe. I have warned that signs of this are starting to show up in the US, and to be very careful because it is only a very short time before it comes […]

People in politics, especially in the American right, often love to speak in praise of “the free market” and how if corporate America were in charge of more, they would do a better job “self regulating” than the government. However, American history always testified to the opposite. The eugenic tendencies of American life manifest the […]

According to the Labor Department, unemployment is defined by persons receiving unemployment checks from the government, not those who have ‘fallen off’ of the workforce. In the last two weeks due to the COVID-19 coronavirus effects, Bloomberg reports by way of Zero Hedge that ten million people have filed for unemployment claims. After last week’s […]

I warned about how Russia has began monitoring citizens using phone apps in a way similar to China’s “social credit” system, and that the same would come to the US and Europe. In a story out of Thompson Reuters, this is already happening as a new smartphone-based monitoring system for COVID-19 patients is about to […]
