Democrats Exhibit Amnesia About Biden-Era Lawfare
Democrats who denounce federal indictments of former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James as unprecedented weaponization of the Justice Department exhibit amnesia about the norm-eviscerating, undemocratic lawfare they launched during the Biden administration.
A federal grand jury in Virginia indicted Comey last month for lying to Congress and obstructing a congressional proceeding by “willfully and knowingly” lying to the Senate Judiciary Committee when he testified that he had not “authorized someone else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports” concerning the FBI’s 2016 investigation of Hillary Clinton’s use of private email for confidential information.

‘We’re going to have a vote’ on member stock trading, key GOP hard-liner says
A raft of internal GOP fights are awaiting Speaker Mike Johnson when he brings the House back from its shutdown recess — including a major brawl over legislation banning congressional stock trading.
Rep. Chip Roy of Texas said in an interview Monday he and fellow Republicans are ready to push GOP leaders to put their bipartisan stock trading ban bill on the floor whenever the House returns — or possibly use a discharge petition to do an end-run around Johnson.
Roy, a member of the House Rules Committee, said Republicans need to figure out the timing going into November and December for when the legislation could go to the floor. He said GOP leaders, who have been skeptical of the effort, are “having conversations” about the legislation.

“Silver no longer shunned as a monetary metal… it is moving INTO the system, not out of it!”
India Unleashes Silver as Banking Collateral with 10-to-1 Gold-Silver Ratio—Declares Silver as Global Monetary Metal.
India’s bold financial reforms, effective April 2026, are set to propel silver into a powerful new era—not just as an industrial workhorse, but as a formalized monetary metal anchoring the banking sector. The Reserve Bank of India’s unified gold and silver loan rules mark a paradigm shift and intensify the global rush toward silver-backed banking, with bullish implications for investors and industrial users alike.
For decades, India’s vast middle class and rural population relied on physical gold as the foundation for household credit and emergency loans. Now, silver is officially joining the ranks. Under RBI’s new regulations, up to 10 kilograms of silver jewelry can be pledged per person as collateral—versus just 1 kilogram for gold—for personal or business loans from banks and Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs). Loans of up to ₹2.5 lakh (about $3,000 USD) can be granted with minimal credit history, making precious metal-backed credit more accessible than ever.

India’s Largest Metals Refinery Ran Out of Silver for the First Time in History

But when it came, he was still blown away. At the start of last week, his company, India’s largest precious metals refinery, ran out of silver stock for the first time in its history.

“Coup d’Flat”: Billionaire-Funded ‘No Kings’ Color-Revolution Turns Into White Liberal Boomer Parade As Dems Become National Laughingstock
The Democratic Party’s dark-money NGO network, bankrolled by left-wing billionaires, unleashed a highly coordinated, color-revolution-style mobilization nationwide on Saturday; the same tactics U.S. intelligence agencies have used overseas for years in regime-change operations. Yet the turnout wasn’t dominated by unhinged young leftists or gender-confused woke warriors, but rather by white baby-boomer liberals, a mobilization effort that NGO expert Mike Benz described as a “Coup d’f́lat.”
The nation is waking up to the fact that dark-money NGO networks, including the Arabella Network, Soros Network, Gates Foundation, Ford Foundation, Tides Foundation, Rockefeller Network, Singham Network, and many others, are funneling millions of dollars into what investigative researchers Peter Schweizer and Seamus Bruner of the Government Accountability Institute call “Riot, Inc.” – the permanent protest industrial complex and the engine behind “No Kings 2.0” partners and organizers. These protests are far from organic; this movement is manufactured, coordinated, and entirely artificial.

Bondi DOJ Backs Warrantless Invasion Of Gun Owners’ Homes
The Department of Justice under Attorney General Pam Bondi is advancing an argument that threatens to hollow out the Fourth Amendment’s core protection: that Americans may be secure in their homes against warrantless searches.
The lawsuit is Case v. Montana. After a difficult breakup, William Trevor Case was at home alone when police arrived for a so-called “welfare check.” They spent nearly an hour outside his house. Officers walked around the property, shined flashlights through windows, and even discussed calling his relatives or reaching him directly. They never did. Instead, they retrieved rifles and a ballistic shield, broke down his door without a warrant, and shot him.

PayPal’s crypto partner mints a whopping $300 trillion worth of stablecoins in ‘technical error’
Paxos, the blockchain partner of PayPal, mistakenly minted $300 trillion worth of the online payment giant’s stablecoin on Wednesday in what the company called a “technical error.”
Market watchers had spotted the enormous injection of the PayPal PYUSD stablecoin on Etherscan — a block explorer and analytics platform for the Ethereum blockchain.
Paxos had mistakenly minted the stablecoins as part of an internal transfer, before it “immediately identified the error and burned the excess PYUSD,” the company said in a social media statement.

Regional Banks Crash As More Credit “Cockroaches” Emerge
Just when the market was starting to finally freak out – with a one month delay – about the Tricolor and First Brands bankruptcy following yesterday’s fingerpointing session between JPM’s Jamie Dimon and various private credit firms in which both accused each other of harboring more credit “cockroaches“, this morning the credit freak out went to 11 as two regional US banks crashed after they both disclosed problems with loans involving allegations of fraud (completely unrelated to Tricolor or First Brands), adding to concern that more cockroaches are indeed emerging in borrowers’ creditworthiness.

13 Reasons Why Gold Has Outperformed Stocks Since 2000
The recent increase in gold prices in the United States and around the world has been driven by a confluence of economic, financial, and political factors. This environment, where gold has outperformed U.S. GDP and the four major U.S. stock markets, began in 2000 and has continued to date (see Exhibits 1, 2, 3). We outline 13 reasons why gold has outperformed most major investments and why it is likely to continue attracting individual and institutional investors.

Breaking: Global Silver Shock — LBMA Crisis Forces 88% Draw on COMEX Inventories
Silver’s physical market has just crossed a historic threshold. The CME’s latest report confirms only 173 million troy ounces of registered silver remain in COMEX vaults—metal actually available for delivery. Yet according to ex‑JP Morgan Bullion Bank executive Robert Gottlieb, the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) must import roughly 150 million ounces to avert systemic failure. In other words, London now needs 88 percent of all COMEX deliverable silver to survive the current liquidity crisis.

Silver Traders Rush Bars to London as Historic Squeeze Rocks Market
(Bloomberg) — The London silver market has been thrown into turmoil by a massive short squeeze, driving prices above $50 an ounce for only the second time in history and stirring memories of the billionaire Hunt brothers’ notorious attempt to corner the market in 1980.
Benchmark prices in London have soared to near-unprecedented levels over New York. Traders described a market where liquidity has almost entirely dried up, leaving anyone short spot silver struggling to source metal and forced to pay crippling borrowing costs to roll their positions to a later date.

Physical Panic: Lease Rate Hits 39%–London in Crisis
The silver market just witnessed a seismic event: On the evening of October 9, Bruce Ikemizu, Chief Director of the Japan Bullion Market Association (JBMA), confirmed that the 1-month implied lease rate for physical silver in London erupted to a jaw-dropping 39.2%. This extraordinary spike, captured in recent market data, signals acute physical supply distress—metal in the vaults is running out, and lenders are demanding a premium for any silver that remains.

Putin Praises Trump’s ‘Real Efforts’ Toward Peace, Blasts Nobel Committee
President Vladimir Putin on Friday praised U.S. President Donald Trump’s efforts to broker a ceasefire in the Middle East and criticized the Nobel Committee for awarding its peace prize to people he claimed did nothing to deserve it, remarks that appeared aimed at currying favor with Trump, who has grown increasingly cool toward Moscow amid stalled efforts to end the war in Ukraine.
Putin told reporters at a press conference in Tajikistan that Trump “is definitely making an effort and working on these issues — on achieving peace and resolving complex international affairs,” noting that the “clearest example” of those efforts is the recent ceasefire in Gaza.

“Gold $4,000 and Silver $50… be careful what you wish for!”
Gold and silver finally had explosive runs and have become extremely overbought. They are both due a correction while the dollar gets a relief rally… this would be normal. But, we live in anything but normal times…!
I have said for 10 years now that gold/silver would ultimately fail to deliver and take the global derivative edifice down. I believe we are very close. If you bought gold or silver for asset protection, even if they pull back so what? This, I believe, is “the rally you never sell” as described by my late partner, Jim Sinclair. We are currently living through the biggest global financial change in over 50 years. During every financial upheaval in man’s history, holding gold prior to, and through the tumult turned out to be THE BEST HOLDING.
If the metals do pull back, who cares? The collapse will mathematically come. “Trading” and trying to pick a top and hoping for re-entry is a fool’s game at the end of an empire. The only thing that will financially matter once markets break will be how many ounces you own versus how many assets you have being gobbled up by the system, period! Expect a pullback, even hope for one. Because if the metals fail to deliver and price goes parabolic, it means immediate societal breakdown. I have always cautioned when people talked about gold and silver to the moon, BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR!

“Is silver (and gold) due a pullback? Of course they are and in normal times the pullback could be 10% or even more. The state of the silver market today does not resemble normal under any definition. If lease rates are 19% in London, that tells you the market is thoroughly broken, price will ultimately reflect this… “
