    1. John:

      Fan is stretching it. I voted for Kasich in the primaries. Later I was impressed with Trump’s standing up to the Clintons and the corporate media. Many of his positions were a significant improvement on the other choices. I was convinced that it was essential to close the book on the Bush-Clinton dynasties. I strongly recommend you read the commentaries I wrote during the campaign, particularly “Cut and Run.”

      On climate change, I am still looking for the intelligence necessary to have an opinion. See https://solari.com/blog/this-changes-everything/

      Change will come from what we each do in our everyday lives. It will not come from Washington.

      Questions welcome.

    1. They are improving the actuarial assumptions on SS and Medicare and Medicaid by lowering life expectancies. This is the backdoor of balancing the federal budget costs of “deplorables.”

  3. Regards the “Precariat”

    ‘A Radically Beneficial World: Automation, Technology and Creating Jobs for All: The Future Belongs to Work That Is Meaningfu’l
    by Charles Hugh Smith is an excellent start at an answer to localized work for all with a “money” system based on such work.

  4. Catherine, have you seen the following brief article by Sean Kerrigan on Dmitri Orlov’s website? (http://cluborlov.blogspot.com/2016/10/bureaucratic-insanity-is-progressing.html) The article discusses the thesis of his new book, Bureaucratic Insanity. It’s so interesting because I feel he’s right about bureaucrats’ level of frustration and rage – but at a deeper level, perhaps more evidence of a Chuck-E-Cheese-style op? I’d love to know your thoughts.

    Thanks so much for all you do!

    1. Kathy:

      Fascinating post. It is true that bureaucrats are being put in an impossible situation with more and more rules – in the aggregate which often do not make sense or are legally or financially overwhelming. And the threats to them are horrible. I am been reading Scott Adams series on safety and laughing my head off: http://dilbert.com

      I do think that Chuck E. Cheese technology is at work in a lot of these situation.

      This is why it is so important that we understand the model debate at the fundamental level is human vs. inhuman and power comes from choosing human and doing our best to stand for human in all that we say and do.

      I have ordered his book. Worth a look.

      1. Great, Catherine! I look forward to your review or comments (although I hate to contribute to your delinquency as a compulsive book buyer!).

  5. Dear Catherine,

    Sharing with you (and interested subscribers) a glimpse of Heaven, a balm for the anxious soul (especially moving are the Barbara Bonney soprano bits): https://youtu.be/5QfJC7bXeZw . Proof positive that God exists.

    Enjoy!

  7. Hello Catherine,
    I am sending you a book called, “The Fourfold Path to Healing” by Dr. Thomas Cowan, MD. The
    chapter on the heart may be of particular interested to you, because
    it presents an interesting model of how the heart works that is
    different than the one now taught. The author contends that a new
    understanding of the heart could have profound implications for our
    society in more ways than just bodily health. Be well.

  9. Catherine,

    “…the election is fluid” Armstrong’s computer indicates Trump will win; ironically years before the 2000 election the computer projected Gore would win. His opinion is that Trump will be not allowed to take office and points to the pre-positioning of Russia is going to rig US elections propaganda. His hope: Trump will mitigate some of the damage from the government crash-and-burn.

    It is important that many of us are very clear in our expectation/intentions that Trump will minimize harm to the citizenry from the government crash and burn period and begin the repair and transparency.

    Regards

  10. Dear Catherine,

    Apropos of nothing except to share a musical moment as a break from the distress of the world. Just to remind us that humans are indeed capable of creating sublime, uplifting works, too. The spirit of humility (in the Count) and forgiveness (in the Countess) depicted by Mozart and performers here is of such exquisite beauty – that it can only come from God. (Benjamin Luxon & Kiri te Kanawa at Glyndebourne, 1973) Enjoy!

  11. Hi Catherine,

    I just listened to your interview with Greg Hunter on USA Watchdog posted October 23rd. Toward the end of the interview you summed up by saying we are on the verge of becoming livestock. Don’t you think that they already consider us to be livestock? Why do they call it the “stock” market? The Vatican and the City of London have been managing us as their cattle for centuries and it is time that we all wake up to this fact and take action to stop it.

    Thank you for your efforts in this regard.

    1. James:

      Digital technology creates the opportunity for a new invasive phase that takes things to a whole new level, particularly for folks who live in the G-7 nations and have enjoyed some sovereignty.

  13. Here’s a song that made me think of you.
    Your positive attitude and action in the face of truly life threatening situations is inspiring.
    I haven’t been that strong in my life. Not for myself or my family.
    But, I’ve prevented the “bastards” from bringing me down.
    And my family and I are still alive.
    Unfortunately, I don’t think that “resistance” has been contagious to my family or peers.
    That’s why I have such respect for you.
    This music is not Bach. Joseph probably wouldn’t like it.
    But it triggers a deep, emotional and humanitarian connection in me…and tears to my eyes.
    Is it brain control? Mind manipulation? Sophisticated brain entrainment?
    I honestly don’t know.
    But I’m suspicious, and that’s the real tragedy.

  14. Catherine,
    Given Hillary’s record and apparent personal tendencies and the fact that Trump has been bashing the status quo, which means, in essence, directly and indirectly bashing the numerous rich and influential power brokers, I wonder how many people appreciate or understand the personal risk that Trump has undertaken in this election. I can’t imagine Hillary being very forgiving, at least behind the scenes. I also wonder if Hillary’s supporters truly understand the karma that they will incur when, almost assuredly, Hillary amps up our current wars and starts new ones. Trump supporters have an out in that he is a wild card and at least says that he wants to deescalate things, but Hillary’s supporters have no such excuse.
    On another note, it is striking to me the number of Hillary’s supporters who openly support her corruption, as if it is some badge of honor. Michael’s Moore’s joking about Hillary killing Vince Foster and Bill Maher’s encouragement of her owning her corruption, especially after his outward support of Bernie, is just disgusting. And their audiences cheering them on is shocking to me.
    On the good side, for the people who want to see and can see and have the opportunity, they can divest themselves of the persons and companies that are supporting this corruption. Be well.

    Chad

    1. I doubt most people understand the risks that Trump is taking. He just outlined his platform in his Gettysburg speech which we will post this weekend. It will kill a lot of wasteful gravy train.

  15. Hello Catherine,
    It was wonderful to meet you and Joseph in Tulsa.
    I’m the nerd that took a few organ lessons in high school. And I’m the lucky man who married my wonderful wife.
    As a USAF Captain, I knew that the beautiful Staff Sargent had people skills that I didn’t possess. She lacked the self confidence about her innate intelligence that was obvious to me. So, I married her.
    My Dad was a USAF officer/pilot. As an only child, I had no clue what an NCO was and why anybody would want to do that job.
    It seemed like a “janitorial” position, to me. Not very PC, but I had no proper frame of reference.
    Upon becoming a military officer, the value of competent NCOs was (for me, at least) an eye opening revelation. They make the whole military “machine” function.
    I consider myself a “Lucky Man”.

    I’ve tried several times today to become a subscriber to Joseph’s site with out success.
    I wanted to send him a great video and ask him to amplify about/repeat a few things we all talked about in Tulsa OK.
    Maybe it’s the internet “crash” by the “Russians?” today. Hmmm? Russians? I doubt it.
    But, who knows?

    My wife and I enjoyed meeting you. For me, it was a very grounding experience, as on line reading and videos lack the humanity that you emphasize. Sometimes I just need to see and talk to a real person.
    My 12+ year experience with brain entrainment and physical harassment plus my serviceable knowledge of the physics and physiology involved, unfortunately leave me with a an overly skeptical mind set. It was a real joy to simply see that you and Joseph exist, as strange as that may sound.

    I’ll try to subscribe to his site again tomorrow.
    In the meantime, please forward this to him. As a trumpet and keyboard (mainly piano and a bit of organ) player, this video/music is heaven for me.
    It’s JS Bach so i’m sure Joseph will enjoy it no matter the quality of the organ accompanist’s playing.

    Allison Balsom is the most beautiful and talented trumpet player I have ever seen. It’s not very PC, I know, but watching her play is a synaesthetic blend of a cerebral testosterone fueled desire and incredible admiration for her talents..

    Please listen and enjoy.

    2. Hmm, good to see this here! Am a big fan of Alison Balsom, too! Exquisite playing. Did you catch her at the BBC Proms some years back? It shoukd be on YouTube.

  18. FYI, Catherine. If the agents go through with this, they will need peoples’ support and prayers. Every time Comey opens his mouth regarding this issue, he looks more and more corrupt and foolish. However, the real rot is in the DOJ; peoples’ eyes are being taken off of the ball by focusing on the FBI. For this type of investigation, the DOJ is the one who approves and reviews search warrants. They are the ones who would present the case in front of a grand jury and neither of these things were done in this case. This was a facsimile of an investigation, not a real one.

    I wonder how many high level attorneys in the DOJ are HIllary donors/supporters.

    We really need an AG who is elected and not appointed by the president and US Atty’s should have some type of civil service protection once they are appointed and not serve merely at the pleasure of the president.

    Chad

    http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-10-18/internal-anger-fbi-over-clinton-investigation-continues-grow

    1. Yes, I agree. The FBI investigates, the DOJ prosecutes. Or arranges for the AG to meet with the target on the Tarmac to make a lucrative deal.

    1. This is likely true. Still is a good source. In terms of judgement and temperament, IMO, Trump is superior of the two.

  23. Catherine,

    You mentioned Dr. Steven Greer and UFos recently. I found this 4 hour presentation he gave last year relentless and quite interesting. Since paying attention to you it was not all that surprising however.
    Dr. Steven Greer – UFOs and the Deep National Security State, 28.9.2015
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNQ8_q-Bxto

    1. Yes. Very good presentation. I posted it about 6 weeks ago and included in the 3rd Quarter Wrap Up News Trends & Stories.

  25. Absolutely.
    But, to that point, I can’t help but suspect the masses have been methodically desensitized over time. Prescription psychotropic drugs are a current example. Many, many more.
    Looking back, ancient Christian art was full of saints with “halos” around their heads. Is there a chance those halos actually existed and were somehow “sensed” by everyone in the their presence? The saints’ holiness may have generated an aura that palpably resonated. Humans seemed to have lost the ability to sense when they are in the presence of saints.
    Communal prayer seems to work similarly. It generates a force field from which many people no longer have the awareness to benefit.
    Net/net, sign me up for anything that might help us jump-start us toward a actively experiencing higher consciousness, rather than being unwittingly “programmed” and desensitized by insidious force-field invasion.

      1. Nope, haven’t read, but I will, thanks!
        No doubt, Joseph and his organ will transformation the community.
        Our boys school (St. Mark’s) recently put one into its chapel, and it has electrified the campus. An indescribable, multi-dimensional force field. There is a waiting list out of nowhere for kids wanting to take organ lessons!
        Solari does unique work in “going there”, presenting the upside/downside of these wildly under-analysed realities. Keep up the great work, thanks!

    1. How about we get left alone to enjoy our natural senses? That is what I want. 🙂

  27. Catherine,

    Several of us in the group saw the notice about Susan Sanders and wonder two things. 1. What can we do for Franklin in the way of a donation either to the church or to a charity of his choice, and 2. Does this affect your ability to come to Tulsa? We all know what a shock and what a tragedy this is for the Hickory Valley community…. and to you, personally.

    Jane

    1. I will be in Tulsa for the Launch and then take time to see Franklin later when the crowds have died down.

      Definately send a donation to the Church in Susan’s name. Very much appreciated.

  29. Catherine,
    Just to be clear, I don’t subscribe to all of the author’s comments, but it’s been my experience that journalists, at best, are often wrong in what they write and at worst, they can be pretty nasty. I think it’s hard for most people to imagine that a person would bald face lie on TV by making things up or conveniently leaving things out, but that is the case.

    Chad

    1. If you have not read Jon Rappoport’s interviews with Ellis Medavoy – HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

  33. Hi, Catherine,

    That was a fantastic, bracing essay on Trump “Besting the Machine”! Thank you for summing up so well why the Clintons are a truly evil breed- despite the smiling, polished exterior.

    Continuing to pray for our country, our people, our next president – and our world! God bless you!

  35. Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy schedule to come to Dallas, TX on Sunday, Oct. 9th, to host a luncheon with some of your most ardent followers. I was so impressed to see how far some people, like Stephanie from Atlanta, GA, who came all the way to be at the table. As usual, not only was there stimulating banter prior to your presentation of ideas, but you inspire us to go home and find a way to institute the ideas you present to us here on Solari.com.

    I personally look forward to seeing you again, next weekend, when you honor Dr. JP Farrell with his virtual organ launch party! Have a great week to you and all my new Dallas friends!

    Jane Owens

    1. Jane:

      I am so excited that you are coming to Tulsa. See you there!

      And thanks again for a great time in Dallas and posting your report. We have to do another one in Texas next year.

      Catherine

  36. Catherine, I’m just this minute listening to something on the radio you may want to hear. It was on WBEZ, the local Chicago public radio station, airing The New Yorker Radio Hour produced by WNYC in New York. It was a 20-minute piece called Weapons of Math Destruction, which was a story about a woman mathematician’s reaction to learning the ways algorithms are used to affect everything from prison sentencing calculations to the interest rates individuals are charged for credit cards. You may be interested in this – it was fascinating. Looking forward to seeing you in Tulsa!

    Kathy C. in Chicago

    1. Yes, indeed. I have ordered her book. Will check it out. Can’t wait to see you in Tulsa!

  38. Catherine. If Solari subscribers are unable to attend Dr. Farrell’s pipe organ crowdfund luncheon and wish to contribute to the cause, kindly let us know how we can do so! It is a wonderful cause. All the best,

    1. Yes – we will post the full information as soon as all the launch info is ready to go. Really appreciate your support – this project is a great source of joy to all of us working on it. Funny how the hope for one pipe organ can white out the darkness in the world.

  39. So, internet access has been privatized – good or bad? What do you (and your guests) foresee with this change in responsibility? https://youtu.be/rCI_tVUdO1M

    Thank you so much for recommending “The Night Manager”. Have just started streaming it on amazon. Looks like a real thriller taken from the real stories hidden behind the headlines. Another good Le Carré tale wonderfully adapted by the Brits who do that sort of thing so well (like “Smiley’s Circus” with the quietly superb Alec Guinness as George Smiley).

  40. Excellent interview with Greg Hunter, Catherine. I’m new to your site. I recently read Rana Foroohar’s Makers and Takers re financialization. I wouldn’t have understood your interview as well had I not. The manipulations of our system are hard to fathom. I”m popping around your web site feverishly trying to get a handle on what I guess is not macro economics at all. It seems rather to be. , ‘what have greedy self serving power brokers wrought?’ Thanks for your tireless efforts to understand, educate and advise us.

    1. Welcome aboard! Make sure you read the transcript for interview with Adam Trombley on Entrainment Technology. It may help to explain a lot.

  41. Hi Catherine: re the election and current circumstances, two quick observations/questions for you:

    1) Another hurricane makes its way toward a swing state just prior to the electiion. Will yet another Republican governor (perhaps Florida, in this case) be forced to play ball in the context of widespread devastation and the obvious requirement to obtain disaster aid? Disaster politics . . . and those pesky acts of God.

    2) Assuming that Trump’s candidacy represents the hidden hand of some faction of deep insiders, would you care to speculate on whether this supposed faction is part of what you (and now I) refer to as Mr Global or is something distinct and separate? That is, are we seeing a family squabble or a revolution? (And why, why is the GOP nominee tweeting about Ms. Universe at three a.m.? Argh.)

  42. Hi Catherine,

    I was surprised you didn’t tell Saker that if Trump got elected and tired to take down the Federal Reserve, it would be suicidal for him. The Jewish owners of the Federal Reserve would have to have Trump eliminated, just like they did to Kennedy and Lincoln. There is no group on planet earth now that has as much power as do the owners of the Federal Reserve. Have you read, The Myth of German Villainy by Benton L Bradberry ???? No book have I read that so clearly shows how we got to where we are now. Your opinion about this work of Bradberry would be appreciated.

    Tnx, Dale
