The Juggling Act: Is 2024 A Pivotal Year For The Globalists

January 3, 2024

By Brandon Smith

If you want to know if a society is on the verge of great and tumultuous change you need to ask two very important questions – Are the people angry? And, are the people hungry?

In the US (and in many parts of Europe) the people are indeed very angry, for different reasons depending on their political affiliations. On the other hand, they aren’t hungry, at least not to the extent that they are desperate. This could very well change in 2024 given the confluence of events that are swirling as we enter the new year.

I continue to see 2024 as a nexus point of our era for a number of reasons. The globalist timeline for their “Great Reset” mentions 2030 as the prime year for total centralization. This is the year they plan to put their carbon controls in place, remove most oil and gas energy, bring in their digital currency framework, finalize their 15 Minute City programs, establish the IMF and BIS as the overseers of the global CBDC structure, launch their cashless society and integrate ESG related goals into every aspect of the economy.

2030 is only six years away, and that’s a lot to accomplish in such short amount of time. The globalists are going to have to either admit failure and change their timeline, or, create a substantial crisis in the near term to facilitate the Reset.  But before I get too far into the potential ugliness waiting in the next year, lets talk about two of the biggest positive developments for 2024…

The Good…

The Defeat Of The Covid Agenda

I don’t think many people understand how epic and important the battle over covid lockdowns and vaccine passports actually was. The western world was on the verge of complete authoritarianism – Not a totalitarian tip-toe like we have been experiencing for many years, but full bore medical dictatorship and mass censorship. I believe covid WAS the Plan A attempt to create reset conditions, and it failed.

If the establishment had achieved their goal of vaccine passports the fight for freedom would be over.  The passports would have made economic participation impossible for anyone that did not submit to the agenda, creating a secondary class of citizens (mostly conservative) that could then be targeted for systematic elimination.

Luckily, enough people stood up and refused to comply that the plan was derailed. Apparently, the establishment realized there were far too many patriots willing to take up arms and fight if they kept pushing the covid farce. Remember that bizarre moment when most of the covid propaganda simply stopped? Like someone flipped a switch and the media changed narratives overnight?

I remember, and this event was the ultimate vindication for all of us in the anti-mandate movement. All the fear, all the dread, all the doom mongering over “millions of deaths”, it all meant nothing and they proved that the moment they shut down the hype machine and everything immediately went back to normal.

The Public Is Fed Up With The Woke Cult

It took longer than it should have, mainly because too many people refused to believe that the conspiracy was real, but the woke cult has finally crossed the line enough times for the general public to get fed up. The activist insurgency has violated every boundary of decency and truth and they have alienated a large contingent of the population.  Their time is quickly coming to an end.

Signs include the ongoing collapse of woke media giants like Disney, the successful boycotts of products like Bud Light and companies like Target. But if you know how to read social trends you can see more subtle signs. There is a growing disdain for third-wave feminism, LGBT cultism and the insane trans movement. People are less afraid to ridicule SJWs, less afraid of cancel culture and more willing to criticize their delusions.

This is what happens when you target children with sexualized indoctrination and you argue against biological reality. This is what happens when you try to force people to embrace and normalize mental illness. This is what happens when you spend years trying to control people’s speech with “neo-pronouns” and terrorize the internet with cancel culture. This is what happens when you invade every corner of pop-culture and try to hijack it or sabotage it through propaganda. This is what happens when you declare war on traditional western values – Everyone starts to hate you and eventually they will organize to kick your ass.

The only thing keeping the woke movement afloat at the moment is their alliance with corporations and the establishment media. Globalist think tanks still spend billions of dollars funding social justice programs and the current government provides cover for the exploits of far-left zealots. Without the elites, the woke ideology would not exist. Millions of Americans are ready to snuff it out for good.

The Bad And The Ugly…

Election 2024

As I have mentioned in past articles, I still believe there might not be a presidential election in November. Though, current conditions would allow for one as long as nothing changes dramatically in the next several months. There hasn’t been this level of national division over an election since the Civil War and regardless of what happens or which side “wins” there will be a high potential for a violent reaction.

The election of 2024 is developing into its own Black Swan event. Democrats are using a ballot access denial strategy against Trump, which by itself could result in civil conflict.  However, the greater issue is that they will use this as a precedent to deny any conservative access to elections on the grounds that they are a “threat to democracy.”

Any indication that Donald Trump will be arrested before November or any widespread blue state plans to remove him from the ballot will be seen as election interference and I have no doubt that many Americans will seriously consider armed revolt.

Then again, Trump’s mere presence as a candidate will be used by far-left groups as a rationale to stoke riots. His re-entry into the Oval Office would mean endless mob actions and perhaps even terrorist attacks. So, in this regard it doesn’t really matter if we end up with Biden or Trump, the eventual outcome will probably be the same – Civil unrest followed by a declaration of martial law in the next couple of years.

My position on Trump has always been one of skepticism, primarily due to his terrible cabinet choices (including Anthony Fauci). However, I recognize that after four horrendous years of Joe Biden’s woke authoritarian empire there is no way that half the country is going to tolerate another term, especially if that term is achieved through perceived sabotage.

Then there is the potential for shock events, such as Biden stepping down at the last minute. Trump being arrested but winning anyway.  Or, a major geopolitical crisis which is used by the Democrats as an excuse to “postpone” the election. And make no mistake, there are many of these triggers in place today.

Geopolitical Tensions Soaring

The potential for war on multiple fronts, including Ukraine, Israel, and perhaps Taiwan is extraordinary in 2024. For now, I am focused on Israel’s conflict in Gaza and the chances of retaliation from surrounding Islamic states. As I’ve mentioned in previous articles, Gaza has no chance whatsoever of stopping Israel militarily and they never did, but that’s not really relevant. What matters is how their neighbors respond.

Lebanon and Hezbollah appear poised to commit to war on Israel in the near term, but Iran is the big question mark.  Would they openly engage the Israelis?  Such a move would completely destabilize all of the Middle East, disrupt a massive portion of the world’s oil supply and probably draw the US and Europe into the fray.

The biggest threat, for now, is the shutting down of shipping lanes through the Red Sea and the Strait of Hormuz. This could disrupt supply chains and energy resources for many months and accelerate the economic crisis. And, this could in turn be used by the establishment as a rationale to put boots on the ground in the region.

Economic Powderkeg

The economic situation is far more distressed than international relations, believe it or not.  There is a precarious game being played by the Federal Reserve with US debt and interest rates, culminating in a Catch-22 that I have been warning about for years.

Some analysts argue that the Fed is about to cut rates in 2024 (I remain doubtful); but if they do, get ready for an immediate and renewed spike in inflation. If they don’t commit to substantial rate cuts then the national debt will continue climbing by around $600 billion per month (around $7 trillion a year). This is unsustainable and it threatens the world reserve status of the dollar.

If the Fed’s intent is to influence elections (again, I highly doubt this), then they aren’t going to be helping Joe Biden much by cutting rates. Biden is already known as the inflation president; creating another ramp in CPI by the end of 2024 would be a disaster for his campaign. And, keeping Biden in office would only further cement public outrage over socialist policies as the economy continues to dive into either stagflationary crisis or deflationary depression depending on which path the central bank chooses.

And remember, the 30%-plus price increase we have seen across the board on necessities in the past few years is going to remain in place for quite some time. It doesn’t matter what the Fed does, you are going to continue paying 30% more to survive compared to 2019-2020, and for many people this is swiftly killing their standard of living. This is why no one takes “Bidenomics” seriously – Until they see a return to cost normalcy it doesn’t matter what kind of spin Biden places on jobs numbers or CPI.

Nobody cares.

Catch-22

I suspect the Fed will continue down the path of deflation. They might try to cut rates once or twice, but when CPI jumps they will go right back to higher rates and tighter credit. This is exactly what they did in the 1970s and early 1980s, though, the US wasn’t adding $600 billion in debt every month during that particular crisis.

How this deflation translates will depend on other factors including geopolitical factors (as mentioned above).  I predict we are about to see an aggressive resurgence of unemployment by the end of the year.  Americans are not buying more, they are merely spending MORE for the same amount of stuff.  The stagflationary process always leads to a painful decline in overall consumption and standard of living – We had our three-year boost due to covid helicopter money, and now that boost is fading.  Any action by the Fed on rates at this point will not help retail or the service sector, it will only serve to keep stock markets afloat a little longer.

Again, the end result is the same no matter what the central bankers do, and this is by design.  If the US elections play into the establishment’s plans at all, I suspect it would be more in line with the optics of a renewed Trump presidency.  It might serve globalist interests more to keep the system intact, not to protect Biden but in preparation for Trump’s return, only to collapse the entire house of cards once he enters office (or even right after he wins).  Setting up conservatives as scapegoats for full spectrum economic crisis makes a lot more sense than trying to maintain the facade for Biden for another four years.

If the globalists fail to set the stage for the Reset in 2024, then they may be facing a mounting movement to bring them to justice.  The juggling act is about to come to an end.

    “If you want to know if a society is on the verge of great and tumultuous change you need to ask two very important questions – Are the people angry? And, are the people hungry?”
    .
    Within any society there are always some people who are angry and hungry. The Predator Class in general just hopes that such people stay in their lane and don’t give the Elitists any trouble.
    .
    But in what passes for today’s United States… we have the added dimension of tens of thousands of illegal aliens violating our borders every week and adding to America’s social and financial misery. And while Delusional Democrats cheer this on and encourage it… they don’t want to have to actually support or tend to any of these illegals themselves. They want someone else do to it that is not a Blue State.
    .
    And when courageous actions are taken by people like the Texas Governor… it becomes a high-stakes game of cat-and-mouse.
    .
    The Governor began by sending illegals directly into the City of Chicago. And the Marxist Mayors of Chicago began to scream and blat about that. And they started to fine the bus drivers of such illegals transfer. So, the next move was to drop off illegals into the suburbs of Chicago (which still is going on). Now it is those same suburbs screaming and blatting like the Marxist Chi-Town Mayor and those towns are putting in ordinances to try to stop this. (And what do these suburbs do with these illegals? They put them on trains for… Chicago!).

    The next move now that the Chicago suburbs are giving bus drivers hell is for Texas to fly the illegals into the Northern Illinois city of Rockford. So we can imagine what they’ll do about that… and the game of cat-and-mouse will go on. The Democrats will still try to block illegals from coming into their State and Texas will continue to bus and fly these invaders and border-violators to new places. And God Bless Texas.
    .
    “If the globalists fail to set the stage for the Reset in 2024, then they may be facing a mounting movement to bring them to justice. The juggling act is about to come to an end.”
    .
    Globalists themselves are truly sick individuals. They have the maturity of a little child that wants everything Their Way… but yet also have delusions of godhood who want to be worshiped and obeyed like a god. Like hell any sane person would ever go along with that. The Predators have great power to give We the People trouble. But We have great power also to give the Hell-goers trouble as well. Looks like another cat-and-mouse game. And the stakes are indeed high. (And price of steaks is high, too).
    .
    Be alert… keep your eyes open… stay mobile… keep your spirits up… and wait for Their next move. And be ready to respond with Yours.

    Unfortunately I actually think that the elites will set the stage for the reset in 2024. I think that the economy will crash and that the democrats will nominate someone other than Biden to take on Trump in this years election. And the democrats will stay in power for another 4 years.

    Agreed that Trump is in place to stir the pot. Anyone else would have been in jail long ago and forgotten. In fact, every pre election circus follows the same pro sports mentality. Team A vs. team B and the public just eats it up.

    If Trump gets in and things go sour, the left of course will be full of “I told you so’s” and blame everything on Trump. But loyal Trump supporters will not buy it. They will simply defend Trump and push the blame to Biden. After all, Trump just steps in after 4 years of Biden, how can he be accountable for much? Rather for any mismanagement to stick to Trump, the establishment must wait until the wheels fall off of the Trump admin before pointing the fingers. We of course know that the wheel bearing spindle nuts are loose on purpose, thus the wheels are designed to fall off with slightly above average loading. Just a few crisis situations here and there to convince the public that Trump was a bad deal.

    All the above assumes Trump is elected. Or I should really say, “selected.”

    • Luke January 4, 2024 at 11:00 am

      I would urge some not to let your hatred and distrust of the media stop you from learning from them. They are but a reflection of their masters will. Pay attention to media narrative as well as pop culture. It’s the best “tell” in the world but one MUST read between the lines.

      That being said look at how they dealt with Trump. I have had my issues with him too but I also know this hatred for him is NOT contrived or scripted. It is indeed real and it is deep. The only thing that could possibly match the covid psyop in scope is the “Hate DT campaign.” Sure he’s annoying and not the statesman type but the vitriol was irrational.

      It’s speaks volumes to me. If somehow he can get in again (highly doubt) it would be better than the GOP or the Left. I don’t believe much can repair the damage already done. The ashes will come before there’s any hope of a rebirth.

      Brandon wrote about the fallout of the shitstorm potentially sending us into another Dark Ages. I am concerned about this as well. Anything that can be done to lesson the odds of that happening are worthy of consideration IMHO.

      • David Homer January 4, 2024 at 2:32 pm

        It seems to me you have watched too much MSM Luke. Trump did not do anything he promised but he did enact gun control. Allowed illegal immigration to increase and did not build the border wall. He fast tracked the clot shot and let Fauci shut down the nation. The list goes on. Trump will not save us. You should look for answers outside of the government in D.C. If you think the answer is in voting for the right preselected candidate then the MSM psyop has you in their control.

        • Luke January 4, 2024 at 7:56 pm

          The covid shot is my biggest beef with him. Like I said I don’t expect much out of him this time around. I didn’t the first time either but I knew he was the best candidate. Without Trump running we may still be trying to vote for conservative uni party jerkoffs like Marco Rubio. He damn sure exposed that grift.

          BUT maybe he comes back this time with a vengeance? What I am saying is neither of us have anything to lose at this point. Would hope you at least vote for your local government.

          And “they” do hate his guts. Only under one circumstance do I think they let him back in….to recruit some white cannon fodder for the military to fight a war. I can’t tell you that he would not go along with it either. Like I said he’s an enigma. However, I don’t suspect “they” have the time to go through those motions. The hour is very late. Their hegemony grows weaker by the day.

    • CancerWard January 11, 2024 at 7:02 am

      You’re close, Al. My take is that all of the prosecutions/ persecutions of Trump have one, primary purpose: set the narrative for the Blue staters to declare a Trump election night win as “unacceptable” and declare their states independent of TrumPutinHitler. Remember that CA and a few other states threatened secession in 2020 if Trump returned to office. The usual antifa rent a mobs were primed and ready.
      So, in 2024, the election will go forward, Trump will be allowed to at least declare victory, and then the Blue states will start the civil fire burning, mobs, etc… This will allow the dc Regime to declare another National Emergency, prevent Trump from taking the oath of office, and facilitate a martial law rule w the usual totalitarian powers.
      How Red states react is anyone’s guess, but it’s no coincidence that a major motion picture is being released in April called “Civil War” that seeds this very narrative ahead of November.
      They are playing for keeps.

  • Buratta January 3, 2024 at 8:37 pm

    Thanks Brandon… two notes/comments…
    1-I think there is no chance at all that the fascists will not put on an election show – there will be no delays, but obviously they will manipulate in an increasingly ham-fisted and barely covert fashion. They must surely know that, although the people are very weak and desperate and cucked, they must have at least a song and dance of plausibility to hang on so that the peasants will keep the pitchforks put away a few more years while they pretend everything is going to be okay.
    2-I simply do not foresee any of these fascists willingly letting Trump win, regardless of the collapse and carnage they think they can hang around his neck. IMO, they will do whatever they can to keep their fingers on all levers of control, whether it is over the golden palaces or an ash heap.

      1) Don’t be so sure. The elitists have disrupted election proceedings in the past with collapse events they deliberately created.

  • Stu January 3, 2024 at 9:44 pm

    Trump’s cabinet “picks” were foisted on him and the American people. He did not want Bill Barr, Mr. deep state CIA boy himself, to be his A.G. The Donald had to walk a very fine line, indeed. Anyway, we’ll see how things go. Time may have passed by the Donald.

      That’s not quite true. Trump had plenty of control over his cabinet picks. That said, I remain open to the possibility that he was advised by people close to him with malicious intentions.

  • drhooves January 4, 2024 at 1:13 am

    I agree with most of what you’ve outlined here Brandon, though I believe the globalists are going to find implementing some of their goals will run up against decline in living standards regardless of which path we end up following. Especially those goals requiring technological advancements. An example would be the vaccine passports – here in the U.S., there really wasn’t any system in place to roll passports out – they couldn’t even accurately track vaccine status of those who took the Jabs. On paper? So rather than any push back from the masses derailing the passports, I think they just abandoned that goal early because it wasn’t feasible. At least not in 2021.

    They may have to make similar concessions around CBDCs, carbon credits, social scores, etc., because of the cost of implementing those kinds of measures. The U.S. military is also probably going to have to retreat a bit from the world stage, as again the cost is too high for the debt .gov will being trying to service. To your credit though, your predictions to this point have been quite accurate, so keep churning them out, please….

      Brandon Smith January 4, 2024 at 1:20 am

      No, the technology is in place and has been for years. Tracking and passports would simply be done through cell phones. They do it in China right now. Keep in mind, it’s not about the tech, it’s about getting the public to accept the tech and the control. The ONLY thing holding them back is the resistance of the liberty minded population.

      • Gauntlet33 January 4, 2024 at 12:17 pm

        I agree with Brandon and further believe that there’s much more tech that they have that they haven’t informed the general public about, including high-tech weaponry.
        ..
        And I further believe that the reason cell phones are handed out to the poor is because of the tracking they want.

  • Linda January 4, 2024 at 1:46 am

    Last year Australia had a referendum to change the constitution to include an Aboriginal Voice To Parliment AKA a UN land grab. 60% of Australians and all states said NO to the proposal, best thing that could happen to Australia because it outed the Lefties as we call them and it also identified where the left reside ie, inner city and Canberra. They are going to try and implement a cashless society etc but good luck or rather thank god that I don’t think a lot of people in remote locations will be happy to go along with tyranny.

  • Mojer January 4, 2024 at 4:46 am

    Many agree to predict Trump’s victory, and what if it was nothing more than a great manipulation of the mass media and similar secret services with the aim of making Trump win? And that Trump is the ideal candidate for globalism?

    One can certainly make excuses for Trump’s four-year presidency, but his future four-year presidency will be in favour of globalism and the deep state.
    Who can seriously think that the next 4 years of Trump will be different?

    Trump will not lower taxes on billionaires and will push even more for armaments and public debt and direct confrontation with China and will support Israel, he will promise to finish the border wall in 4 years and will also support citizen control and currency virtual.

    Now can we see if there is anything different from the Biden era apart from the wall?

    Therefore Trump is the biggest mass manipulation of 2024.

    “If they don’t commit to substantial rate cuts then the national debt will continue climbing by around $600 billion per month (around $7 trillion a year).”

    Damn, from the interest on the current debt I assume.

    We are indeed a “Catch 22” and bluffing is no longer a viable strategy as we head into 2024. The world is ready to call bullshit. It’s bittersweet for most of us I suspect. At least it is for me. After the full court press of mind fuckery last several years who doesn’t want a little schadenfreude?

    Still the uncertainty of the matter is alarming. It’s just so hard to tell what that looks like once the castle really starts to crumble. Newsflash, we ain’t the same Americans that survived the 2 WW’s and Great Depression. Lol we may very well be after all is said and done.

    Another brillant article!
    “I continue to see 2024 as a nexus point of our era for a number of reasons. The globalist timeline for their “Great Reset” mentions 2030 as the prime year for total centralization. This is the year they plan to put their carbon controls in place, remove most oil and gas energy, bring in their digital currency framework, finalize their 15 Minute City programs, establish the IMF and BIS as the overseers of the global CBDC structure, launch their cashless society and integrate ESG related goals into every aspect of the economy.”
    INDEED!

    Concerning “15 Minute City programs”, I believe Olympic Games 2024 in France (in particular in Paris) this summer are going “a relevant test” for globalists and their totalitarian Agenda.

    “I continue to see 2024 as a nexus point of our era for a number of reasons. The globalist timeline for their “Great Reset” mentions 2030 as the prime year for total centralization.”
    Absolutely agree whit that(cf The Economist magazine’s covert: “The World ahead 2024″…).
    As, I’ve already written, globalists have no more much options left in order to comply people – specifically western people -, next weapon or tool could be “Cyber Polygon”; i’m not alone to consider it.

    Brandon, not to say that the US of A is not overly in debt and will be adding interest expense at a high and increasing rate in the future, but your comment “If they don’t commit to substantial rate cuts then the national debt will continue climbing by around $600 billion per month (around $7 trillion a year)” is for me hyperbole. For this past federal government fiscal year ending September 30, 2023 the national debt increased by $2.238 trillion from the prior year end. For the current fiscal year it is on track to increase by one trillion by the end of January, (4 months into the new year, $250 billion per month). So I would estimate the full year addition to debt is closer to $3.0 trillion this current fiscal year. We may get to a $7.0 trillion addition to debt by FY 2027 or so. I expect I will be accused of quibbling over a few trillion or a few years but I respect all of your posts and the thinking that you have done to prepare your cogent positions, so I do not want to see you throw out numbers for shock value. The growth in debt is definitly not sustainable but is also not as bad as you made it sound today. Thank you for your good thinking, writing and teaching over the past many years. You are helping us all prep for what’s coming.

      You are incorrect and your numbers are wrong, I’m sorry to say, primarily because you are making assumptions based on the previous fiscal year instead of realizing that the previous year does not represent current conditions. The US added over $600 billion to the national debt in October 2023 alone and though this amount might shift slightly from month-to-month the rate of expansion is relatively steady and the trend in interest payments is spiking. Meaning, over a trillion dollars added every 2 months. It is EXACTLY as bad as I make it sound. Please learn the current numbers instead of relying on past numbers that no longer apply. It will help you to understand my analysis.

    There’s a MAJOR strike taking place throughout Germany tomorrow to protest recent government policies in Germany. It should be interesting. The people are starting to wake the hell up and realize, the Globalists are the enemy of the people.
