It’s a hoax.
Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, 7/16/25
As an addendum to part one, the reader should appreciate the President’s reference to the Epstein scandal as a “Democratic hoax” which was designed with a wide dragnet to maximize the leverage its perpetrators might achieve over political actors.
“Have you stopped beating your wife, yet?” – a proverbial libelous accusation couched in a question – must now, in our jaded time, be replaced by others to achieve a similar impact: “Have you stopped raping children, yet?” or “Have you stopped eating babies?
“Church gossip” is a given among lawless Christians. The Ninth Commandment, “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor” is perhaps broken more than any of the others. The Mosaic law required a penalty upon the accuser to match the penalty which would have been enforced upon the accused were the accusation found to be true (Deuteronomy 19:16-18).
Consequently, if Hillary Rodham Clinton, for example, cannot be proved by her detractors to be a Satan worshipping, child sacrificing, cannibal, as they claim – the penalty upon such crimes certainly being death – then the death penalty upon her accusers would be forthcoming. Restoring such a standard should keep church foyers quiet.
War as Theater
But in a larger context, Trump’s statement can be broadened to include all of politics, which like the magician’s sleight of hand, makes statecraft into a sort of magic, if not theater. Things are never as they seem and certainly the war with Iran – one must remember that it has not been declared a “war” after all, but merely a “military operation” – is full of theatrics.
The President’s declaration of a “peace deal” over 40 times – only to be followed with further “hostilities” – has manipulated the markets with extraordinary gyrations. If one were privy to the inner workings of the President’s mind to anticipate these hopeful fakeries, one could have played the markets and have become quite wealthy.
It certainly appears that the President’s family already have.
“Force majeure” is the equivalent of a declaration of bankruptcy in which a business or company cannot fulfill its contractual obligations because of something beyond the normal control of what might have been foreseen by such a contract: like war, for example.
Since “money” is a negotiable instrument, and hence, a “contract,” any agreement involving the exchange of valuable “consideration” must be completed. Otherwise, it is fraud. Fraud is “bearing false witness” and is a criminal act. To escape the penalty for fraud, the perpetrator must plead a change of circumstances which create a disability – hence, force majeure.
Closing the Strait of Hormuz stopped shipping because virtually all shipping is insured by Lloyd’s of London and they were not willing to pay for the risk. So, oil tankers remained anchored in port.
The President made a feeble gesture to insure the insurers, but closer analysis reveals that it was designed to be refused. And some have claimed that the entire operation was agreed to by Trump because someone showed him how he could make a lot of money out of the shakedown.
Trump’s political nemesis, the late Sen. John McCain of proverbial anti-Iranian hatred – “Bomb, bomb, bomb . . . bomb, bomb Iran” – did not know how to flip the switch to get his cooperation. Netanyahu, evidently has.
Many analysts, of course, believe that Iran has won the war. But conquering and defeating Iran was never the goal. Eliminating or replacing the criminal cartel which has for decades held the West hostage to the petrodollar – that was the target. So Trump has achieved that objective to his own advantage.
Should that result in lower fuel prices, it would guarantee a large-scale political victory in November for the MAGA party. But whether that should be the ultimate outcome, matters not, as the foundation for the future techno-state has been laid which will supersede politics.
We have reached a sort of “civilizational nirvana” or “day of judgment” in which the role of an electorate doesn’t control public policy any more. The “virtual” electorate has been created and is sustained by the Artificial Intelligence phenomenon. It can be argued that it began with Operation Jade Helm and that all that has happened since then has been a chess match between human actors and this unnamed AI network.
Rolling the Debt
Usury in the Bible is a tool of economic warfare to obtain title over people and things.
The Institutes of Biblical Terranomics, James W. Stivers, publication pending
There has been much talk about a “great reset” and some have mistakenly supposed that it means a biblical-style jubilee in which all debts are forgiven and we start over.
That can only occur in a free society in which there is such a thing as property rights. The West abandoned the right to property generations ago and the rest of the world has never had it. In America, the Anglo-Saxon notion of private property rights was abandoned with the passage of the 13th Amendment, the one which ostensibly abolished slavery.
As is often the case with law, there is a “fine print” to its text, and in the case of the 13th Amendment, its giveaway was that it abolished slavery and involuntary servitude “except as punishment for crime” which was a provision to be enforced by Congress “with appropriate legislation.” Ever after, Congress has created a statutory code which has criminalized just about all normal human activity. And martial law rule in the form of the administrative state creates the pretext for the “summary conviction” of entire classes of individuals who are dubbed “enemies of the state.”
For example, the IRS tax code has made passing on an inheritance almost impossible, and has redefined the effort to avoid inheritance taxes as “tax fraud.” “Tax fraud” is a convenient and perhaps the most pervasive form of “involuntary servitude” in which exorbitant tax liens are levied requiring a lifetime to pay. And as for the notion of an intergenerational estate implementing the biblical standard for land tenure, that has long been dead in the United States.
Bankruptcy laws still exist. But they cannot erase tax liens and they certainly serve no net advantage to the economy.
In a system of usury – lending with compounding interest – it can only end either by a repudiation of the debt by the borrower or when there are no longer any assets which can be hypothecated. It can never be paid off, but requires new borrowers to roll over the debt.
Richard Kelly Hoskins, a late 20th Century author and Wall Street analyst, documented historical examples of this process in his book, War Cycles, Peace Cycles. Most notably, the Civil War was just such an outcome that was needed for American bankers to acquire debt-free assets in the confiscation of Southern lands in order to roll over their debts.
Bankruptcy laws can benefit individuals but can never release the society as a whole from the burden of debt because there is such a thing as “public debt.” In the United States, the public debt is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment. While that Amendment repudiated the debts of the Confederacy, it condemned future generations of Americans to a debt slavery. The individual may be free of private debt, but as a citizen, he is in bondage to pay his share of the public debt. His status of citizenship creates the contractual adhesion.
Consequently, the talk of the World Economic Forum of a reset really means the abolition of private property and the imposition of a Universal Basic Income along with a social credit score to rank and control human behavior.
The Constitutional prohibition of “impairing the obligations of contracts” becomes moot as there is no longer anyone with standing to enter a contract. It is the legal status of a “conventional disability” and the end of history.
