New artice: On 1776 and Tokenization.
From kings to central banks to tokenized platforms, the same pattern is repeating: the control system moves deeper. Here’s why Larry Fink is racing to accelerate tokenization and crown himself king of the new technofeudalism.

Trump's Regenerative Agriculture EO Decoded
So, Trump signed the “Regenerative Agriculture” order--score one for MAHA! Thanks to RFK Jr bringing on Joel Salatin as a special advisor, we’re finally turning this ship around, moving away from industrial mass monoculture, and ditching the toxic Big Ag chemicals...right? Right?!
... as usual, there’s more to the story. This is a classic bait-and-switch. A perversion of language right up there with bills named like the “Patriot Act.”
Let’s take a deeper look.

BIS warns global economy will meltdown if AI bubble slows/bursts
The Bank of International Settlements (central bank OF central banks) has warned in their latest report that the speculative capex spending around AI has reached proportions so absurd — think tulip mania times Roaring 20's times dot-com — that if anything even so much as slows down, the whole house of cards will fall, and the global economy will slip into a deep depression or collapse altogether.
Companies like Nvidia and the hyperscalers (google, meta, oracle) are borrowing money hand over fist, throwing a TRILLION DOLLARS at new capacity, with no understanding of how that will possibly be paid off. But at this point, the idea of stopping it is unthinkable, and the results would be catastrophic.
When (not if) this thing turns—and the signs are already there—those who can grow their own and exist without grid power or supermarkets for a time are the ones who will be left standing.
Preparing now to weather a storm (and I do mean one of generationally epic, historic proportions) would be a very good idea.

Photos of dead corn & sunflower crops across the EU are flooding X, like this corn field in Poitou-Charentes, France.
The heatwave and dry spell has been particularly devastating to farms without irrigation, with some analysts estimating up to 15% of the corn crop has been lost.

85 Million Pounds of Food Destroyed in LA Cold Storage Fire.
A massive fire at a Los Angeles cold-storage facility has ruined ~10 million meals worth of food. With refrigeration offline, the spoiling inventory has become a biohazard, complicating firefighting efforts that have extended for multiple days, and prompting California to declare a state of emergency for air quality and cleanup.
Lineage Logistics, the owner of the facility, is the world's largest temperature-controlled logistics operator, and this ~491,000 sq ft hub served as a key distribution point for Greater LA, connecting to some 10 million people.
Officials claim "there will not be shortages, but localized pressure on frozen meats/poultry is possible" (which seems to be contradictory...). Events like this demonstrate why over-centralization of our food supply chain is a problem.
Oh, and the fire was started when testing a solar system on the roof. The same solar system caused a fire in 2024. Score another big win for "green energy..."

EU Approves Unlabeled Gene-Edited Food [VIDEO]
This week, the EU has voted to allow gene-edited foods in the food supply without labelling--eliminating consumer choice--and Syngenta has partnered with the Indian government's to power their AI-based farming tools, as the agenda for gene-edited foods goes into hyperdrive. The technocrats are pushing to takeover the world food supply, with "no farmer left behind" -- it is the end of traditional farming and ranching. Christian breaks it down.

No Fuel, No Food: Farms Shutting Down Worldwide [VIDEO]
Farmers in Russia report they can no longer get diesel. Suppliers are diverting fuel to western cities while rural areas are left dry. Even officials warn they must prepare for the “complete closure” of agriculture in the region.
This is the canary in the coal mine.
While the world burns through strategic reserves to hide the energy shock, real farms are hitting the wall. No fuel means no planting. No planting means no harvest. The buffers are almost gone, and when they run out, the hard landing arrives.

Gene Edited Crops: The WEF’s Back Door Agenda
There is a coordinated push happening right now to replace traditional food with gene-edited, synthetic crops. At first it looks like normal business and innovation, but when you look closer you see something very different.
In this video Christian breaks down an admission from Corteva Catalyst’s Senior Director Mathias Müller. He openly explained how Big Ag plans to let small startups do the risky legwork on gene-edited crops so the big companies don’t have to take the heat, the liability, or the bad press if (when) things go wrong.
I also look at the real-world example he gave -- Pairwise -- and show how this pattern is repeating across multiple Corteva-backed companies. Former Monsanto and Syngenta executives are leading many of these “startups.”
This isn’t organic market progress, but rather a deliberate strategy to centralize control over our food supply while pushing the risks onto others.
Grow your own, my friends . . .

FDA Grants Emergency Clearance for Screwworm Drug.
A mere 8 days after the USDA confirmed 'New World Screwworm' in Texas (14% of US cattle...), the FDA has now granted emergency clearance for a Screwworm drug, nitenpyram, for dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens.
They also fast-tracked an injectable drug called Dectomax for dairy cattle, swine, horses, sheep, and deer — a few weeks before the "discovery."
How convenient that the drugs were ready to go right as this hits the U.S. cattle herd...
This could get expensive very quickly for livestock producers. Watch the southern states closely. This one has the potential to ripple hard through the food supply.

Excellent report by The Drey Dossier about an unaccountable group within the Executive branch quietly usurping control of all US FedGov interfaces/touchpoints — and doing who-knows-what with all the data collected. This extends the same technocratic takeover that was sensed in the early days of DOGE, and then seemed to go away:

Amsterdam bans public ads for meat (and fossil fuels).
Stunning: the Netherlands just outlawed billboards, bus shelters, and metro ads for meat, burgers, steak, chicken, pork, fish ... plus gas cars, flights, cruises, and home gas contracts. Officially in effect since May 1, 2026... but an oh-so-generous grace period with no fines until 2027.
This is how the technocrats shape perception offline: they literally remove things from sight so they become "unseen." It's censorship of reality itself.
If you still doubt they'll go much harder in the digital realm: shadowbanning, training AIs to dodge topics, curating your feed ... this is all the proof you need. What else are they making invisible to you?

Mercuria shipping head says fuel shortages could idle 10% of global fleet
This would trigger immediate and severe breakdowns in global supply chains, as container ships, tankers, and bulk carriers sit idle, halting the movement of food, fertilizer, fuel, and critical imports that modern economies depend on.
"The shipping sector is fast approaching a fuel crisis that could paralyze a tenth of the global fleet, Larry Johnson, global head of freight at commodities trading house Mercuria, said in an interview.
Since the Middle East war erupted, markets have been preoccupied with potential shortfalls in the diesel and jet fuel traditionally exported in large quantities from the Persian Gulf.
However, as refiners strain to capture soaring clean product cracks, residual fuels have suffered. Increasingly, feedstocks have been held back from the marine fuel market to kept for further processing, leaving the shipping sector at risk of crippling shortages, Johnson said.
"My view on marine fuel oil is there will be regional stock-outs by July and that there are potentially outages in the major hubs by August, September, at the latest," Johnson said.

USDA Destroying 420,000 peach trees after Del Monte closes all California canneries for good
Del Monte (139 years old) filed bankruptcy as rising energy prices and steel tariffs exacerbated an already bad balance sheet. They closed their Modesto and Hughson canning plants and canceled long-term contracts worth hundreds of millions.
Farmers now have no buyer for clingstone peaches meant for canning.
The USDA is "helping" farmers, providing $9m to destroy the orchards, calling it 'support for transitioning.'
This is what systemic failure looks like in a centralized food supply: one big player collapses, and the entire chain breaks.

US Law Enforcement Warns of ‘Anti-Tech Extremism’ as AI Hatred Grows
In this post, I mentioned "You don't cut 40,000 people off from their electricity unless you WANT an outcry against the new data centers." Now we are seeing clear signs: they DO want it. This is a brand new agenda: socially engineering a pushback against the AI takeover. And the FBI is already training for it — linking it even with Luigi Mangione:
"In the wake of attacks on CEOs, a nationwide protest movement targeting data centers, and increasing concerns about AI job replacement, federal intelligence agencies and domestic law enforcement are circulating reports with a new domestic target in mind: anti-technology extremists."
So, as data centers drain our aquifers and consume our resources, they are already pre-positioning to classify anyone who objects as "anti-technology extremist" terrorists.
"In California, Illinois, Indiana, New Jersey, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin, state and local police have removed or arrested speakers at town halls who criticize data centers, in one case before they were even allowed to speak. [...] This has led to protesters and activists being surveilled under domestic extremism provisions while being charged with crimes like criminal trespass and vandalism."
Reality is getting weirder...

GAO report warns US water and wastewater systems are vulnerable to hackers
As we monitor the cybersecurity / "Iran hackers" space, the GAO just issued a fresh warning that US water infrastructure is largely insecure: old, pre-internet systems without any authentication have been glued with connected components — and the report claims foreign hackers have already found their way in and attacked, including ransomware attacks.
The report describes how an attack on highly vulnerable critical water infrastructure could cause service disruptions and environmental damage, as well as cripple downstream systems including the power grid, hospitals/healthcare, food & agriculture, and so forth.

Pivot Bio, creator of gene-edited soil microbes, applauds Trump's "Regenerative Ag" Executive Order.
I wrote above that the new EO is an abuse of language, designed to advance gene-edited soil microbes and GMO crops in the name of "regenerative agriculture." RFK Jr's posturing with MAHA and pulling in Joel Salatin is a ruse. (RFK interviewing me was part of that ruse to give MAHA credibility, so actually I personally resent this!)
The fact that AgTech companies are now celebrating the new executive order tells you everything you need to know: they have hijacked the term "regenerative" (just like they did "sustainable" and "equitable").
Pivot CEO: "By recognizing biological fertilizers and other advanced nitrogen management tools as creditable low-carbon practices, the USDA has sent a clear message that innovation that genuinely reduces emissions and improves farm economics will be valued and rewarded. That is exactly the right policy direction.”
See my full report here.
Pivot's press release is here.
🌾 USDA now projecting U.S. farmers will harvest just 32.1 million acres of wheat in 2026.
That would be a 149-year low, the smallest harvested area since 1877.
Mass death of poultry, pigs in European heatwave
French authorities are unable to process a massive influx of dead pigs and chickens, and are issuing licenses to allow producers to bury their own losses on-site. Cattle are also facing heavy losses (+45% of normal).
This is a problem chiefly for the nasty industrial CAFO-style facilities — traditional farmers do not keep their animals within poorly ventilated concrete structures. This disaster, then, is another example of why over-centralization of food production is inhumane, unhealthy, and brittle.
Backyard flocks are faring just fine, while industrial facilities are seeing, for example, 10,000 chicken die in a single night. Although France is hit hardest, losses are also being reported in Spain, Italy, Germany, UK, and beyond ...

Trump just said the quiet part out loud:
"We run out of reserves in about four weeks. You know, there are reserves all over the world, and we would really run out, and there’ll be a time when you wouldn’t be able to get it.”
Everyone is talking about this "new peace deal" (even as Iran just cleared its airspace -- but sure. Even then, four weeks out!), and so little attention is being paid to the fact that we're about to have a hard landing, and all that entails for transport, agriculture, supply chains...
They've done an amazing job of hiding this by papering it over...even as oil CEOs warned and now POTUS himself acknowledges it's about to hit. I've been warning.

Did you know the Big 4 Ag Companies:
* Syngenta, WEF Partner
* BASF, WEF Partner
* Bayer, WEF Parnter
* Corteva, whose CEO was previously the Board Steward for WEF Food Systems Initiative
... control 56% of the WORLD SEED supply.
They own the majority of key CRISPR/gene-editing patents in agriculture and are racing to deploy GENE-EDITED synthetic crops as rapidly as possible (as recommended by the UN & WEF in response to the "looming food crisis") ?
They want all food to be their patented, synthetic life -- not natural food.
This is the technocrats' hostile takeover of the food system.

WEF Announces Global Food Crisis.
In a new report, the World Economic Forum confirms we have entered a global food crisis and unsurprisingly reiterates the same policy suggestions that the UN's FAO issued just a few weeks ago [report here]:
- saddle farmers with debt, which can then be used to ensure compliance
- use AI and field mapping/surveillance for "precision" applications of irrigation and fertilizer,
- generally consolidate control of food production into the hands of the technocrats.

New Study: "Green" Energy Fails 62% of the Time!
The "green" de-carbonization hoax took another blow as a new, peer-reviewed study in Greece revealed Solar meets demand only 32% of the time. Wind, 44%. Combined, they FAIL to deliver 62% of the year.
Even with storage, the gap between generation/consumption is MASSIVE due to poor correlation with actual peak demand times. Annual “totals” are a lie. These expensive, hail-magnet, land-gobbling boondoggles are unreliable by nature.
This is why your power costs more, blackouts loom, and grids still need constant fossil/nuclear backup.
They’re not replacing anything. They’re destabilizing everything.
Expose the green hoax...

Ranchers Sound the Alarm: Data Centers Are Devouring Water and Farmland
While the AI hype train rolls on, ranchers are watching data centers explode across rural America — sucking up the water, land, and energy needed to grow food. This is not Chinese propaganda, as some claim; it's reality.
One large facility can drink 5 million gallons of water per day. That's enough for 140,000 cows. Smaller ones still rival 30,000-head herds. Projections show data centers could claim 3-9% of Texas’s total water by 2040, with similar strains hitting other states.
In Georgia, one data center “lost” nearly 30 million gallons through "improperly tracked connections" while locals were forced to conserve water. These are built for 50+ years of operation, even in drought-prone West Texas, Arizona, New Mexico—regions already stretched thin by aquifer decline and extreme weather.
Ranchers can’t just relocate when shortages hit. The technocrats are giving priority the servers powering their AI surveillance and narrative control, to the detriment of the producers who actually feed the country.

I’ve been a bit quiet the last few weeks dealing with some health issues, but I’m back at it — this week filing several FOIAs on genetically engineered microbes and “synthetic life” deployed across US farmland to offset fertilizer shortages.

American farmers face loss of $100+/acre
-- this is what I've meant when I keep saying the technocrats are making farming economically unviable:
"Across the country, corn growers are feeling squeezed from both directions. Costs for fertilizer, diesel fuel, crop protection, and seed continue climbing, while corn prices remain too low to offset those expenses."
This is a #WarOnFarms to consolidate control of food production into the hands of the technocrats.

UN FAO Warns of Food Crisis, Announces Technocratic Takeover of Food Production [VIDEO]
The UN's FAO just warned of a major global food crisis triggered by the Strait of Hormuz conflict.
In this video I decode their official policy recommendations and show what they actually mean for farmers and food production.
From digital registries and surveillance to debt traps and corporate control, this is the technocratic takeover of food production hidden behind "resilience" language. The real solution lies in decentralized, self-reliant food growing ... like Russia's dacha gardens that fed a nation during collapse. Watch until the end for the better path forward.
