Gref is nothing more than a bank node figurehead, an WEF apparatchik. His "timing" is a function of when they tap him on the shoulder, activating him and the fiat they conjure out of thin air. They could literally use any sociopath in a suit to telegraph the "charitable" relief of funds for "emergency" "research" that has been conducted decades ago in studies on how to effectively under stealth depopulate the world. Culling the human herds is a vital "managerial" plank of the WEF.

So simple, and so in plain sight, this horror shows relies on the meek inheriting nothing much, and being sent off prematurely to the next world with a death injection and the discharge of liabilities like pensions (before enough perceptions break the management program, and catch on).

I'm not so scared of the culling, because it looks like natural selection.

The scary part is awaiting those, who survive.

"According to experts, pay-by-face can save up to 10 seconds per transaction. This is critical because what if you find yourself in a situation where you need to buy a bagel in under 15 seconds or the whole world explodes?" Right? Incredible (terrifying) reporting, Edward. You need a paid sub option.

Well, thank you. I guess you have some wealth to draw on, otherwise, I don't know how you are surviving. Since you are obviously an enemy of the state. We need A LOT more like you.

I have enough money to last a few months, which is about as long as I think I'll last before I get carted off. so it works out perfect! :)

I think you can have paid subscribers without ever paywalling an article.

Expand full comment

Yes, that is an option.

Still, without major supporters, a substack owner needs about 10k subscibers to make enough money to reach poverty level. FYI, it takes me 10-12 hours a day to keep my page up-to-date. On average, one in a hundred subscribers contribute and it's usually the lowest amount allowed.

Apart from paid shills, Substack is not for those, who want to make money. :)

I bought something today and paid cash. I thought the clerk's head was going to explode when I handed over my $20 bill and she realized I wasn't using a card.

"Eek, cash, what do I do?!? Like, do I have to count out the change?"

Haha, that's how I feel when asked "cash or card".

Outstanding takedown, отлично.

Pretty unhappy about the status of Krasnodar. It was one of my go-to places before all this insanity began. Guess I’ll have to redirect my energies toward the deep North Caucuses or the Altai ...

Would it surprise anyone that Gref is one of the named “they” recently published by Dr. Martin? Probably not. However there is a big surprise on that list: Yo Yo Ma. Yes, THAT Yo Yo Ma, the humanist so famous for his contributions to art, etc.

I second MountainBlues suggestion; you should have a paid subscriber option. MT has one and he isn’t even in Russia anymore, nor reporting on the 1K kg bear in the room.

Looking forward to Part II.

Stay safe; be well.

hey btw -- you wouldn't happen to have a contact for Martin, would you? (there's no reason why you would, I'm just desperate, here.) I know Gref is listed as a member of the "covid orchestra" -- would love to pick Dr. Martin's brain about our favorite banker-boi.

No sir, I don’t.

The only thing I have been able to discover is this:

https://www.davidmartin.world/ No contact info. Ask him to collaborate in a web-based exchanged. I think he is a kindred spirit.

You must persevere. Dr. Martin's deep dive into patents (CAF's 'follow the money') exposed the whole corrupt rotting mess for what it is: schiesse! He is a little unpolished but to me that means genuine. YMMV.

I stand ready to support you in any way possible.

semper fidelis!

Top work as always, and quality memage.

Looks like Sber has been awarded Russia's upcoming social credit system already.

Interesting things happening today as per ZH: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/biden-warn-putin-us-prepared-move-more-troops-near-russias-border

"update(1:34pm): Biden and Putin spoke for two hours - their second such call since July - and coming amid widespread media and official accusations that Russia is mustering troops near Ukraine, possibly planning an "invasion".

But the call began on a jovial enough note with a grinning US president giving "killer" Putin a hearty "hello" to kick things off, in contrast to the sensational and hyped headlines that the rival powers are poised for war. Biden literally chuckled out loud, as if reuniting with a long lost old pal... "good to see you again!""

The kabuki is strong on this one.

Interesting RFK quote (from a recent interview with James Corbett) in Mercola's email today:

"Today, we have this situation where the U.S. military and the CIA are conspiring with the Chinese CDC and military scientists, developing bioweapons together and conspiring to lie to the public … We have U.S. federal officials who are conspiring with Chinese military officials to hide truth from the American public.”"

One more piece of good news over here: looks like Biden's federal contractor vax mandate has been put on ice. I think that may have been the last big one in effect. Of course De Blasio announced yesterday he was going to force the vax on all citizens of New York City but I'm doubting that will last in the end.

No major changes as far as I know. But there is this gem from our Minister of Healthcare. He recommended that ski resorts visitors are given "a unique mark such as a sticker" to wear on their clothes or helmets. This is purportedly done to save people the hassle of showing the ausweis every time they want to use a cable car, enter a restaurant, go to a holiday market, etc. You'll only have to show it once during check-in - and then you are free to roam around with that special sticker on your clothes! It is not clear what happens if one refuses to wear the sticker though.

Granted, it is just a recommendation, not an order or something, but I think most large hotels will readily adopt it.

As always, there is nothing that Gref, Abramovich, Fridman, Blavatnik, Deripaska, Firtash, Akhmetov do that isn't 100% approved by Putin as an approach. All of it. If they weren't totally on the team, they'd have been dead many, many years ago.

...and then there were those "pandemic bonds" aka "catastrophe bonds." I remember seeing stories about them in early 2020. I bet somebody got rich off them.

What a hoot - Putin is NOT playing what we hear on the soundtrack...

Among the many false trails which can throw the budding sleuth off of the really real trail...

the 'ethnic identity' thing is a 'prime mover;' a "German born in Kazakhstan" being a class example of the type. Like so very many of the critters encountered along the parade route of the now retired "God/Emperor" Donnie Trimpf - guys from former USSR central asian satrapies like "Felix Sater" ... who would show up on the Trimpf Empire payroll, or in key places of the failed real estate magnates' return to glory path

guys who spoke Turkish/Yiddish growing up and learned Russian/English to advance themselves in the days when Rus was being smashed to pieces in the post-USSR debacle,

"Gref" has a far more interesting 'pedigree' than the vanilla wrapping he comes with! Gref • Greff  family surnames[with the usual endless variations]are easily traced back to "Galicia" - https://www.avotaynu.com/books/DJSGNames.htm

which is a very special place on the marches of Poland/Rus/the ancient Lithuania Commonwealth - from which so very many of the very special persons RUNNING THE ENTIRE FINANCIAL ARCHITECTURE OF THE WORLD NOW trace their family beginnings. Indeed - just like "Larry Fink" of Blackrock - arguably the MOST POWERFUL MAN IN THE WORLD - (FAKE POTUS cHinA joE calls him "the real POTUS")

Herman appears on the WEF roster as part of a Galician Gang turnout which tells the 'post-naive' among us exactly what that machinery is all about. With your references to Gref and "kabbalah" you are getting very .... warm... Sir Eddie,

so warm that... when attempting to respond to that cue... and noting that suddenly 'substack' was having 'technical problems' for the first time I had ever personally noticed...

I smiled at the perfect symmetry of it all! Problem/reaction/solution!

But then I hear that members of the Duma are saying they are considering breaking ties with the WHO. And of course my heart leaps with hope. Is there a struggle going on? How are these things 'reconciled'--if they can be.

There were murmurs in the Duma about leaving the WHO last year -- but they were immediately shut down by the federal government. You can read about this saga in detail here: https://edwardslavsquat.substack.com/p/its-time-for-an-alt-media-reset
