Boring News

Be honest. What exactly has happened this week? It began with Joe Biden touchy-feely episodes and appeared to end with Timmothy Pitzen shock. Besides that, various things were ABOUT to happen – such as border closings, Trump tax returns, and Mueller files – but never got around to happening.

The “news” has been awfully boring this week, when you get right down to it.

The DELIVERY attempts to make up for the lack of substance. Announcers are breathless with excitement.

Face it: nothing happened. Everything was about to happen. So once more, in search of substance, we go to the archives.

Around this time ten years ago, The Huffington Post warned that “subtle, consistent, and pervasive are the means by which an aristocracy perpetuates itself.” They were bothered that the new president, Barack Obama, had made Lawrence Summers his economic adviser. Summers had been making big money (“honorariums”) for lectures delivered in 2008 to fine upstanding organizations like J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, and Lehman Brothers. The tentacles of such groups were therefore reaching into the White House. The aristocracy was perpetuating itself, even in the time of “socialist” Obama. [1]

The G-20 was meeting and a single clause in Point 19 of their communiqué bothered Ambrose Evans-Pritchard. Special Drawing Rights (SDR), a synthetic paper currency issued by the International Monetary Fund, “amounts to revolution in the global financial order,” predicted Evans-Pritchard. The Russians had hoped to develop SDRs as a full reserve currency to challenge the U.S. dollar. That didn’t completely happen. But “[t]here is now a world currency in waiting.” [2]

In the March 31, 2019 blog entry, Ersjdamoo told of how virtually every newspaper in South Korea had reported they might be under UFO attack. At the time, Kim Jong Il was the “Dear Leader” of North Korea. It developed that Japan had issued, in conjunction with the “UFO attack”, a false alarm regarding an alleged North Korean missile attack. The drama came close to causing a fully fledged war. Was it a UFO cover up? Or had a supposedly peaceful satellite launch by the North Koreans been in fact a cover for the launch of intercontinental ballistic missiles? [3]

Italian researcher Giampaolo Giuliani said he had forecast a major quake in central Italy by measuring emissions of a radioactive gas, radon. Shortly before the deadly April 6, 2009 L’Aquila earthquake, “Mr Giuliani was reported to the authorities for spreading alarm after locals apparently took fright at his warnings.” A week before, in late March, a group had toured the area, “telling people through megaphones to leave their houses because of an imminent earthquake.” [4]

Earthquake forecaster Giampaolo Giuliani was branded an “imbecile” by the Italian government. But the scientist insisted he can foretell earthquakes by measuring radon gas emissions from the earth’s crust and monitoring the phases of Venus. It was an odd situation: Giuliani had predicted the quake for March 29th; the Italian government ignored his warnings; no quake came on March 29th; but then the earth shook a week later. Why hadn’t the Italian government heeded Giuliani? “There is no possibility of predicting an earthquake. This is a fact in the world’s scientific community,” stated Guido Bertolaso, head of the Italian civilian defense agency. [5]
