1:13:01 Various tax obligations may rise as the various pensions decline and state governments have to make up the gap in what is not being provided for in their various pension plans. These are all aggregating in a negative cycle, a dangerous, precarious, perilous negative cycle that when you put it up against the energy crisis about to rock Europe, the food crisis about to rock the entire globe, you can see why the deep state is jibberish and nervous at the moment. they are facing unprecedented failure. Indeed, when people tell me the deep state must have a sophisticated and smart plan for all of this, I remind them of history. And the particular most analogous time in history we face is World War right up to World War I. In building up to World War I, a bunch of empires thought they could easily and convincingly use martial and military means to finish their imperial conquest of the globe.
1:14:00 This included the British Empire, which famously they said an empire where the sun never set. What do they mean by that? That they were present in some part of the world where the sun was still rising and up. So you had the British Empire, one of the most dominant empires in world history, leading into World War I, the dominant pound, the dominant currency in the globe. You had the various the rising German would-be empire. You had the Austro-Hungarian, which was about a century and a half old, that had managed to take out Napoleon. You had the Russian Empire, which in certain respects dated back over 10 centuries, but at least in just the same family, over three centuries. You had the Ottoman Empire, which had taken over the Middle East and parts of Europe for centuries and centuries. And the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which was so inbred
1:14:51 that by generation number 20, their mouths could barely open because of the way their jaws form. But that's how old and ancient and powerful and established and just unlimited these various regimes had been. The British Empire being one of the younger ones, though one of the more powerful ones. But the Russian Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Turkish Empire, the German Empire, and the British Empire would, by the end of World War I, be mostly gone off the map as empires. They would politically vanish. The Brits would take a little bit longer, but not much longer. Ottoman Empire, gone. In less than a decade, the Austro-Hungarian Empire built for centuries would be gone in less than 10 years. The Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, Russian Empire, all of these formed and created and lasted for centuries
1:15:45 over wide-ranging disputes and conflicts, within less than 10 years would be gone off the face of the planet as political entities, as existing relevant entities, as individuals, as institutions of influence. That is the same. So how did they get there? They got there because they were no longer just morally misdirected. It wasn't just their moral compass that was broken. It was their intellectual capacity that was equally blinded, that was equally misguided, that was equally misdirected. This is why, in part,
1:16:21 Vladimir Putin's speech this week laid out all the problems for the future of the deep state and the West and the globalists and how their days are numbered, how their ability to control the world, they thought they could control the world through finance. They thought they could control the world through little numbers and digits on a computer screen. They thought they could control the world through their manipulation of currencies and financial markets. And his point is that isn't what really runs the world. What runs the world is food. What runs the world is fuel. What runs the world is men with military means. And that's what governs and directs the world, and to some degree, the ideas that govern us. But what doesn't run us is little pieces of paper and little numbers on a screen. And that is why Putin was predicting the decline, the fall, the collapse of the Western deep state and the globalists, which he identified as such in these various speeches he's been giving over the last several weeks. Now you know why the deep state is obsessed with taking him out.
