Globalism / Great Reset -
A new report from the Bank for International Settlements estimates that up to 90% of national central banks are at least in the planning stages for launching a central bank digital currency (CBDC): “Nine out of 10 central banks are exploring central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), and more than half are now developing them or running concrete experiments. In particular, work on retail CBDCs has moved to more advanced stages”
This echoes a March report from the IMF, which claimed over one hundred nations are at least in the planning stages of releasing their own CBDC.
Programmability is a major feature of digital currency which would allow the issuer to set limits and controls over its use. Essentially, any CBDC would give either the state, the central bank or the corporation issuing the money as wages the power to control how and where the money is spent.
OBSERVATION - Global currency and spending control is a major goal of the GGR. Your ‘money’ ceases to be your own to spend as you see fit. The wuhan plandemic has served as a catalyst as well as covers for this movement to take control.

Baby formula shortages reaching critical levels in parts of the country. Significant uptick in searches for ‘home made baby formula’ and increase in emergency visits of infants when those formulas go wrong.
biden to address inflation in a speech tonight. Most expect it to be a repeat of what he’s been saying all along, many of his points being debunked time and again.
The average price of gas in the United States rose to a new high on Tuesday of $4.37 a gallon, according to AAA. The current average for regular unleaded as of Monday is thirteen cents higher than gas was one week ago, twenty cents more expensive than one month ago, and $1.36 more than one year ago.
The national average cost of a gallon of diesel fuel hit $5.540 on Monday, according to AAA’s fuel price data. That’s twenty-one cents more expensive than one week ago, forty-eight cents more than one month ago, and a whopping $2.42 more expensive than last year.
OBSERVATION - Rising fuel costs will continue to force rising prices in all other sectors. US Oil production is still down 1500 (11%) barrels per day from the per-wuhan peak.
California energy officials on Friday issued a sober forecast for the state’s electrical grid, saying it lacks sufficient capacity to keep the lights on this summer and beyond if heatwaves, wildfires or other extreme events take their toll…
In an online briefing with reporters, the officials forecast a potential shortfall of 1,700 megawatts this year, a number that could go as high as 5,000 MW if the grid is taxed by multiple challenges that reduce available power while sending demand soaring, state officials said during an online briefing with reporters.
Supply gaps along those lines could leave between 1 million and 4 million people without power.
OBSERVATION - Electrical shortages are so bad that it is forcing Newscum to reassess his push to close down the state’s last nuclear power plant. Kalifornians are also going to be hit doubly if coal generated power from out side the state (if available) if brought in because of outrageous carbon fees/taxes levied on it. Even with all the mandated home solar, the short fall is there.

On Monday evening, radical abortion supporters marched on Samuel Alito’s home.
Videos of the protesters flanked by cameramen showed people marching up and down the street chanting slogans like: “our bodies, our voice!” and “Alito is a coward!”
Some members of the crowd carried a banner that read: “Repro Freedom For All.”
The political group Shut Down DC said it would be organizing a vigil outside Justice Alito’s home because “it’s been impossible to reach him at the Supreme Court.”
DOJ is silent on this violation of federal law, being more interested in investigating moms at school board meetings than investigating proaborts breaking the law trying to intimidate USSC justices.
Caroline Reilly, who works for the pro-abortion news site Rewire, wrote “more of this” followed by a link to a New York Times report about the Wisconsin arson investigation.
“More of this. May these people never know a moment of peace or safety until they rot in the ground,” Reilly wrote, according to screen shots from Fox News, National Review, independent journalist Andy Ngo and others.
The office of the Oregon Right to Life in Keizer, OR was attacked on Sunday night. The assailant(s) tried to break the window to throw firebombs inside. Unable to break in, the firebombs were hurled at the building instead.

OBSERVATION - The ‘left’ would say that this is just protected rhetoric, but only loosely .
OBSERVATION - Protests/riots are very subdued in contrast to leftist rhetoric ‘hope’ of more turnout and violence to leverage against the judges. Polls show no traction being gained and that protests may actually be backfiring to some extent.
Many blue states and areas diverted wuhan funds to promote CRT in schools. Renaming it “social and emotional learning”.

POLITICAL FRONT -
A new CNN poll conducted after the leak of the Supreme Court draft opinion showing a majority of justices favoring rolling back Roe v. Wade, suggests that the overwrought responses from Democrats may not move the needle on Election Day as they’d hoped it would. It shows increased support for republican candidates and issues. On the question of whether Roe should be overturned completely, 34% said it should be — an increase of four points since January — and 66% said no — down three points — suggesting that support for overturning the radical 1973 abortion decision is on the rise.
OBSERVATION - CNN is traditionally a hard left leaning poll source, so these trends are not good for the democrats who were looking to gain traction and support on this issue.
Schumer is looking to push a vote on a very radical proabort bill, already doomed to failure, to try to force senators to take a stand on the issue. Given recent polling , such a vote will do very little when compared to overwhelming economic concerns of the electorate.

Russia -
WAR WATCH - The Battle for Donbas is on - Ukraine still stands now in the third month of the war (Day 75)
CURRENT ASSESSMENT - Russia has hard pivoted to a readjustment of combat forces to sieze the Dombas region of eastern Ukraine. However, it is appearing that the offensive is losing traction and falling into many of the same errors that plagued the attempt to seize Kyiv.
Withdrawing Russian forces have left abundant evidence of mass murder of civilians, rape of women and children and wide spread looting.
ALSO - there is a lot of propaganda out there. I’m doing my best to filter that out or put into context. When In doubt I’ve been trying to identify questionable information.
********
Central Intelligence Agency Director Bill Burns said Russian President Putin has “a frame of mind in which he doesn’t believe he can afford to lose… I think he’s convinced right now that doubling down still will enable him to make progress [in Ukraine].” Burns assesses the Russian military remains behind schedule even after consolidating its forces for a coastal and westward offensive from Crimea and Donbas. (FO)
OBSERVATION - Some analysts still consider that putin’s nuclear option is still in play. Some view that the option will be cancelled by the Kremlin, justifying that because of putin’s medical condition, his decision would be mentally flawed.
Russian Personnel Issues -
- The Wagner Group, Russian mercenaries, has called for hundreds of thousands of soldiers to be brought into the Ukraine fight.
- Not confirmed by Russia but fits documented equipment losses, around 26,000 Russian troops have been killed since Russia invaded Ukraine on 24 February, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces has said in its latest update. A rough estimate of wounded would be in the neighborhood of 75K-100K Over the past day, Russia suffered the greatest losses in the Avdiivka area, north of the Ukrainian city of Donetsk.
- Poor morale and discipline of the Russian soldiers continues to be a serous problem as reports by US and Ukraine analysts.

WEATHER FORECAST - Rain/showers returning to forecast towards the end of the 10 day forecast after several days of drying.
24 HOUR ROUND UP -
Again, incredibly, very little has happened. Russia has made very minor gains in east while Ukraine resumed its counteroffensive operation north and east of Khariv. Russian strategic missile strikes focused on Odesa, hitting civilian targets.
Kyiv front -
Nothing significant to report.
Northern (Chernihv region ) and North Eastern (Konotop - Sumy salient) Fronts -
Bilopillia district of Sumy region was shelled with MLRS from Kursk region
Eastern (Khariv) front -
Ukrainian army center offensive resumed liberating Bairak, Zamuilivka, Verkhnii Saltiv and Rubizhne, east to Kharkiv. In some instances, Russian forces retreated in a disorganized fashion that could in one instance be considered a panic. This offensive is diverting units away from the main Russian efforts to the south.
In the southern area of the front, Izyim to Papasna region, very little success. Russia has massed the majority of its forces against the region and has gotten very little for its efforts. Russian advances continue to be severely road bound, limiting the ability to apply this combat power and exposing logistical routes. Repetition of the failure in the north.
Eastern (Donbas Separatist Region) Front -
Russian AF conducted 34 sorties against Azovstal in last 24 hours, including 8 sorties of strategic bombers. Also naval artillery, MLRS, UR-77 and tanks shelling the plant. Russians blew up the last bridge, used to ‘evacuate’ trapped civilians over the course of the last week.
Russian / separatist forces failed to advance northward into the Donbas region.
Crimea Front -
Odesa faced a heavy missile attack, with civilian / residential areas targeted by air and sea launched cruse missiles.
Satellite imagery shows an increase in Russian anti-air forces on Crimea. Observers believe an influx of Smerch multiple-launch rocket systems, S-300 anti-air systems, or Iskander missile launchers in Filativka could signal a new Russian advance in southern and eastern Ukraine. The satellite images also show nearly 200 combat armored vehicles of various types, possibly command and control elements. (FO)
Snake Island remains a problem for Russian forces as Ukraine exerts an economy of force like operation to harass and destroy Russian equipment and forces on and around the island.
Western Ukraine -
Nothing significant to report
Russian Territory -
Nothing significant to report
OUTLOOK -
BLUF - No significant changes foreseen in the near term.
The noted increases in forces in Crimea have analysts watching closely to see how they will be applied. Russia only has so many forces - far fewer than most say they need to accomplish the tactical objectives they have stated. Right now, the push northward into the Donbas region is failing even worse than the efforts in the northern and eastern fronts. The longer it takes to execute a coordinated, mutually supporting attack, the longer Ukraine has to make additional preparations and get new offensive equipment into positions. Some suspect that US artillery with laser guided rounds are already devastating Russian forces in the east. If Russia is foolish enough to try to attack westward toward Odesa, they will be further doomed and decimated. Even a push to try to capture the entire Kherson Oblast will be very costly in men and equipment and not likely to succeed.
Russia will continue to maneuver to have captured territories ‘vote’ for ‘independence’, perhaps as a step towards an exit strategy for putin to be able to declare some kind of victory.

Bill Gates confirmed via social media early Tuesday evening that he tested positive for COVID-19.
The Air Force admitted during a preliminary injunction hearing on Monday that it only accepted religious accommodation requests for the COVID-19 vaccine from airmen who were already exiting the service, Breitbart reported.
The branch has allegedly denied the exemption requests of over 7,595 applicants and only granted 46, an attorney representing the airmen stated in the courtroom.
The 36 airmen seeking accommodation in a federal court case in Nebraska are represented jointly by the Alliance for Free Citizens and the America First Policy Institute.
“The hearing today confirmed that the military religious accommodation process is pure theater. The answer is always no. The Air Force has granted zero accommodation requests that were not effectively early retirements,” AFC General Counsel Kris Kobach told the outlet, claiming the Air Force verbally conceded they were engaging in the practice.
OBSERVATION - No doubt that wuhan has been made a tool to fight against service men/women, ignoring the clear statements of the law.

biden’s talk yesterday summed up in “don’t blame me” and “its not my fault”
Demand at food banks increased 45% in March, compounding on top of an increase of 30% in February, and proceeded by 20% in January. Overall, that is a 126% increase from December demand. Driving the significant uptick is inflation and low stock levels at stores. One analyst writes that this is an indicator of “lower-income households…unraveling as consumer prices” rise drastically. “Some households are at breaking points amid threats of stagflation.” Real wages are decreasing, and the price of food has increased 10% as of March compared to March of last year. (FO)
Biden on Tuesday said that he might end some of the tariffs imposed on China under former President Donald Trump in an effort to lower consumer prices. “I want every American to know that I am taking inflation very seriously and it is my top domestic priority.”

The other church, someone tried to desecrate the Eucharist,” Father Peter Damian Harris said.
Saint Bartholomew confirmed on Facebook that its Tabernacle was stolen Sunday, and police are investigating.
Proabort and Antifa elements are continuing to plan and advertise protest marches across the country this week. So far violent attacks have been limited but Antifa and affiliated elements may try to step up their game as the weekend approaches.
FCC commissioner Brendan Carr appeared on the May 9 edition of Fox News host Maria Bartiromo’s show, Mornings with Maria, and called for President Joe Biden’s Disinformation Governance Board (DGB) to dissolve as soon as possible. “Sometimes the threats to our liberty come dressed up in sheep’s clothing, but this wolf comes as a wolf,” said Carr, citing the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. “This is Orwellian; it’s un-American; it’s unconstitutional. The very best time to shut this down was before the DHS ever announced it, the second best time is right now.”

In a statement attributed to the organization’s executive director, Anthony D.

When a handful of individuals possess so much power over the most important forums for political speech, they should exercise that power with restraint.

North/South Korea -
NUKE WATCH on going.
North Korean food shortages are getting worse. The year started with crops reduced because of less rainfall since late 2021. More recently some snow and too much rain in some parts of the country reduced crop yields even more. In most of North Korea April was warmer than usual with less than half the usual rainfall. Springtime retail food prices are at record high levels. Starvation deaths are are reported to be occurring in the worst hit provinces.
OBSERVATION - NK has very little cash to purchase grain to make up the short fall. Hungry populations (and troops) are prime conditions for regime changes or war.
Unconfirmed reports. Unexplained lockdown in Pyongyang . Yesterday the North Korean capital an order was suddenly given to all citizens to go home. This was announced by NK News, a site specialized on North Korean events. The reason is not known, some sources have reported of a “national lockdown”, others of a “national problem”, speaking of “long queues” of people waiting for buses or any other useful means of returning to their homes.
OBSERVATION - Some NK watchers indicate that this isn’t as unusual as it may seem with similar actions taken when excessive air pollution or dust storms have come in from China.

The United States believes that Russian President Vladimir Putin is preparing for a long conflict in Ukraine and a Russian victory in the Donbas in the east of the country might not end the war, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines said on Tuesday.
U.S. believes Russia is two weeks behind military objectives in Donbas & south. (Note - three weeks into new plan and already two behind). Putin is believed to be still striving to create a land bridge to Crimea, and keeping Kyiv on the table.
Russian oil billionaire Alexander Subbotin became on Sunday the sixth oligarch to die since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February. According to a report from Breitbart, a Russian police report details that Subbotin had succumbed to his demise after a shaman had administered toad venom as a means for a hangover cure.
Logistics -
- Russia has been losing a lot of Orlan-10s drones, important for adjusting artillery fire. It appears that Ukraine has figured out how to jam the drones, causing them to abort their missions and come to the ground.

24 HOUR ROUND UP -
Again, incredibly, very little has happened. Russia has made very minor gains in east while Ukraine counteroffensive operation north and east of Khariv has liberated more cities and pushed closer to the Russian border.
Kyiv front -
Nothing significant to report.
Northern (Chernihv region ) and North Eastern (Konotop - Sumy salient) Fronts -
Nothing significant to report.
Eastern (Kharkiv) front -
There are reports that the Ukrainian counter offensive in the Kharkiv region towards the north-northeast has successfully pushed Russian troops back across the Russian/Ukrainian border in a number of villages. Multiple reports say Ukrainian troops reached the border with Russia in the Kharkiv Oblast Unconfirmed but solid reports that Ukrainian troops have reached the Russian border to the North-East of Kharkiv near the town of Ternova. Today the UAF General Staff announced that Russian troops have withdrawn across the border. Multiple news reports makes that seem more likely.
Pushing the offensive to the east, Ukraine has pushed most Russia forces east of the Donets River.
US and Ukraine intelligence sees indicators of more Russian forces from the Izyum area are reportedly redeploying northwards to attempt to alleviate the pressure of this counteroffensive. Russian forces did not make any confirmed advances in any direction from Izyum.
Other attacks in the eastern and southern Donbas fronts resulted in very little to no advances by Russian forces.
Eastern (Donbas Separatist Region) Front -
Russian forces continued to conduct air and artillery strikes and ground assaults against Ukrainian positions in the Azovstal Steel Plant . Ukrainian sources state that there are over 1,000 Ukrainian soldiers, including hundreds injured, still in Azovstal plant in Mariupol
Russian forces additionally continued unsuccessful frontal assaults around Donetsk City.
Russian / separatist forces failed to advance northward into the Donbas region.
Crimea Front -
Russian and Ukraine forces clashed along a line of contact between Kherson and Mykolaiv Oblasts but neither side made any confirmed advances. Both sides launched artillery attacks one each other’s positions as well.
Russia is trying to reinforce exposed troops on Zmiinyi (Snake) Island, which could enable it to dominate the northwestern Black Sea, Britain’s Ministry of Defence said. Recent satellite imagery has spotted a Dyugon-class landing craft, carrying a vehicle near the island. Cargo may be a SA-15 Tor to replace the one destroyed by recent Ukrainian strike, but image resolution makes it hard to say. A second ship is a Project 22870 rescue tug, similar to that one Russia used in “Moskva” cruiser rescue op. It appears that the landing ship wreck was slightly moved, but still blocking the ramp.
Western Ukraine -

Russian Territory -

OUTLOOK -
BLUF - No significant changes foreseen in the near term.
We are now about about 4 weeks into this “Phase 2” Russian offensive to capture the Donbas region. US estimates Russian is at least 2 weeks behind schedule. Russia has very little to show for their efforts, with only minor gains in eastern Ukraine. It is estimated that Russian has been able to pull together about 96 BTGs for the effort, about two thirds of which are focused on eastern Ukraine, the rest in Crimea. However, the losses on men and equipment have caused analysts to consider some other metric to measure Russian force levels as it is believed that many of these BTGs are far below full strength. Personnel in particular, continue to have dismal morale and reportedly will sabotage their vehicles / equipment to avoid going into combat.
Russian offensive operations are still largely road bound. The effect is that they become highly targetable to Ukraine artillery attacks. One video posted showed a large part of a BTG sized element getting the snot shot out them as they tried to advance down a road.
The big story though continues to be the Ukraine offensive that is clearing Russian forces away from Kharkiv. When putin’s “phase 2” operations started, Kharkiv was nearly 3/4 surrounded by Russian forces, now only a remnant are present on the far north eastern corner of the surrounding suburb area. In some areas, Russian defenses have collapsed and a disorderly withdrawal to Russian territory ensued, similar to what happened in the north.
It has successfully reduced the ability of Russian artillery to target the northeastern suburbs of Kharkiv City, and will potentially enable Ukrainian forces to threaten Russian rear areas with their own shelling and further attacks.
If Ukraine can pivot the offensive more to the east, it could cut across key logistic lines, unhinging Russian offensive operations around Izyum. It has already succeeded in forcing the diversion of a lot of Russian units away from Izyum. Ukraine faces a big hurdle in that it would have to force a crossing of the Donets River, which could be costly, unless they pull a rabbit out of their hat and come up with a surprise of some kind.
