The Dutch Farmers-Citizen Movement (BBB) recently won 17 seats in the government, but skepticism remains regarding their true agenda. While journalists like Michael Shellenberger and outlets like Zero Hedge praised the victory, the party appears to support "New World Order" concepts such as tiny homes and restrictive nitrogen policies. The movement is characterized as a potential scam against voters.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell attributed inflation to supply-side issues and the failure of the labor force to return post-vaccination. Financial analysis from Zero Hedge suggests that the reverse repo market has reached $2.3 trillion, creating a quarter of a billion dollars in new money daily. This liquidity, combined with the removal of bank reserve requirements, is cited as a primary driver of persistent inflation.

The World Health Organization issued a memo regarding the proper use of PCR tests, suggesting that high cycle counts can lead to false positives.

The World Health Organization (WHO), led by Dr. Tedros, is criticized for its lack of transparency and its focus on battling "trolls and conspiracy theories" rather than the virus itself. The WHO reportedly contacted social media platforms to remove "disinformation," leading to the suspension of the Zero Hedge account on Twitter. The lack of clear communication from health officials is blamed for the rise of alternative theories.
