There is a lot of ground to cover today, so expect things to jump around a fair bit.
Let’s begin with the headlines about how the Military Preparing Attacks on Mexican Cartels.
This is not something come from Out of the Blue. In fact, on the Peoplenomics side of the house, there’s an archived report from 2005, while recounting the work of the Minute Men, we survey the socioeconomic drivers of a second Mexican War this way.
“Called America’s most dangerous gang, Mara Salvatrucha (a/k/a/ MS-13) started off in Honduras & El Salvador and is now active in almost all U.S. states. http://www.apfn.org/apfn/MS-13.htm
If the gang was simply involved in the transportation of drugs (which they are) or the trafficking of humans into the U.S. via a gang-run “underground railroad” type operation (which they are), or if they just went around killing people who crossed their path (which they do), they would have little economic impact other than to be part of the $150-billion a year narco-dollar problem which is slowly gobbling up governments.
Where MS-13 gets to be a worry to the investing public of the USA is when there’s evidence that in addition to smuggling illegal Mexicans, other nationalities, including Islamic militants, has become part of their stock in trade.”
As things progresses, we also called out the Mexican government for promoting illegal immigration to the USA, though the source in 2005 (here for ref) is part of the ritualistic rewriting of history all modern governments now engage in.
The build-up didn’t peter out then. By 2010 I was writing articles like Mexico’s Drug Revolution – the MDR – seems to be getting underway. Leaving us to bemoan later that year (2010) why the Mexico Drug Revolution isn’t front-page news. Anyone who hasn’t seen this coming – followed by eventual statehood as one outcome, needs to go back and read Joel Garreau’s 1982 book “The 9 Nations of North America.”
The Multivariate Rhyme of 1929
The reason – to our mental midget way of viewing the world – is to consider the recent evolutionary role of Central and South American gangs in modern times. Then inspect how these aligned with the historical record ahead of 1929:
See, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, immigrant gangs in the us grew out of the overcrowded slums where new arrivals clustered for work and survival. Italians, Irish, Jewish, Chinese and others often banded together both for mutual protection and for opportunities in the gray zones of labor, politics, and crime. these street organizations began as loose neighborhood crews, With success, they evolved into more structured groups that could deliver votes to political machines, muscle in on labor disputes, and provide illegal services in booming industrial cities.
By the late 1920s their influence seemed entrenched, but the Great Depression shifted the ground under them. mass unemployment, collapsing local economies, and the decline of political patronage stripped away much of their utility. with fewer jobs to control and less cash to skim, many of the neighborhood-based gangs lost cohesion. some members moved into larger organized crime syndicates tied to prohibition, while others simply faded back into the anonymity of hard times. To the public eye, immigrant street gangs appeared to wither, though the networks and habits they established would resurface in new forms after prosperity and prohibition’s end.
The Modern Riff
We find it no “stretch” whatsoever to recall the Roaring Twenties alignment with illegal gangs (based on alcohol) rhymes with the Modern Substance War (MSW) based on drugs. Two sides of the same coin.
The immediate future (large view, socioeconomic) may be anticipated by study of market comparisons.
While present headlines make a Big Deal out of US direct actiosn against Cartel and their drug import businesses, what’s coming now smells like a hybrid between Elliott Ness on the one hand, and Mexican-American War on the other.
Organized crime thrived in the Roaring Twenties under Prohibition because people wanted alcohol and the government insisted on banning it. The crash didn’t immediately kill those networks; for a few years they were flush with cash because legal jobs vanished while the demand for booze remained. But as the Depression deepened and repeal came in 1933, the easy profits shrank and many neighborhood gangs either got absorbed into larger syndicates or lost their relevance.
If today’s economy tips into the same prolonged downturn, the “drug of choice” question reappears.
Governments under stress often choose tolerance to avoid open revolt — in the Thirties it was letting alcohol come back; in modern times it could mean relaxed cannabis laws, opioid substitution programs, or even a lighter touch on stimulants in order to keep streets calm.
The alternative — cracking down hard while millions are unemployed — risks creating an army of angry young men ready to be weaponized by outsiders. So yes, a battle line between tolerance and repression is possible, and history suggests authorities lean toward wink-wink leniency if the alternative looks like civil unrest. The real danger is not small-scale gangs, but larger actors (foreign or domestic) using drug markets as leverage to destabilize a weakened society.
We know the role of China, but IF (as our economic work points), America is sliding into a second Great Depression by the 2028 elections, and Trump can’t run again (though a VP spot with Vance or Don Jr. is possible out there), then the few survivors of a more centrist-leaning economic recomposition of democrats, could make progress. Paradoxically, they could raise money on the drug seller side (like that hasn’t happened before, know what I mena?) not realizing they would be closing a drug-driven revolution window…

Around the Ranch: Note to Bullish – MoneyMachine
A good while back, long time subscriber Bullish Bob got me hooked on Yorkshire Gold English tea.
But here in recent weeks, articles have been circulating on the combined use of the active ingredient in green tea and nicotinamide riboside. NR+ as it’s called, seems to work in combination with EGCG to reduce (or at least help clear tau tangles (think amyloids) in people with ALZ/VD. (Alzheimer’s/vascular dementia if you’re under 50…).
Now, there isn’t a measurable amount in coffee (dammit!) but what about…”Hey robo-brain – wake up,…”
Black teas (like Twinings English Breakfast, Yorkshire Gold, Assam, Darjeeling)
These are made from the same leaf as green tea, but the oxidation/fermentation step during processing polymerizes the catechins.
So EGCG is mostly gone, converted into theaflavins and thearubigins.
You might get trace EGCG (<5 mg per cup), basically negligible compared to green tea.”
Now, Ure micro-dosing host will have to look for something as good as (Bullish Bob’s) Yorkshire Gold. But in the search, if it had the same caffeine as a “triple-shot Americano tall”? That would be fine too.
Peoplenomics Lookahead:
If you weren’t paying attention, or didn’t have time to read the (somewhat) heavy math paper mentioned in the ChartPack on the Peoplenomics side Wednesday, here’s the abstract to ponder:
“This paper explores a minimal-mathematics approach to decomposing overlapping cyclical drivers in long-horizon financial data. Using weekly Aggregate Index values from February 1999 to August 2025, we identify dominant periodicities through Fourier-based detrending, harmonic regression, and cycle superposition. Our aim is not purely econometric precision, but to demonstrate how combinatorial alignment of medium- and long-term cycles can produce outsized volatility events, while misaligned phases produce quiescent intervals. Forecasting based on the detected harmonics highlights both short-term risk windows and longer-term troughs consistent with historically observed Kondratieff-type rhythms. The framework, though applied to markets here, generalizes to geophysical and planetary-influence domains where interacting oscillations drive extreme events.”
I know…OK…why would anyone in their right mind at 76.5 bother with math?
Well, in a totally bonkers cross-over between a ShopTalk Sunday article and an in-depth Peoplenomics series, I have been (not too secretly) working on something I call the…
Ai MoneyMachine
Idea in a nutshell (or nutjob, as the case may be) is that if you can visualize (our recent “thought-objects discussion) and can describe them, Ai can write you the code. In fact, let me show you how it works. (I won’t even make you suffer through re-explaining minimal cycle decomposition in minimalist form…)
Preliminaries to run: (declare a virtual machine)
cd C:\MoneyMachine
.\.venv\Scripts\activate.bat
Then load in this morning’s updated market data:
python MoneyMachine.py import –csv “C:\MoneyMachine\market_hist.csv”
The machine eats the file which includes today’s futures:
Imported 404 rows; series: djia, spx, ixic -> C:\MoneyMachine\data.csv
Schema saved to C:\MoneyMachine\data_schema.json (date=’date’, series=[‘djia’, ‘spx’, ‘ixic’])
PS C:\MoneyMachine>
So now it’s ready to run (no, you don’t get to see all the command line options – think I’m crazy?). Which gives…
Which makes no sense so I call out Ai and it explains all:
Yes, I saw your note — you’re pointing out that the output you got is gibberish, because the “Projection” numbers (~600) don’t match reality for the Dow (~45,000).
That’s because the code as it stood was reporting the delta (change) instead of a level. The fix is to compute a new field (__proj_level
) = actual price + projection delta, and then print that instead of the raw delta.
And that, brothers and sisters is how my day is going. But, in thought.obj, this is reusable thinking because it will all be explained in an upcoming Peoplenomics series on how to write a “money machine” using Ai as your coding back-end.
As of this morning, our look ahead Dow runs show…
But you can’t really use this for anything – yet. Because even through we MAY be 300 points lower before tomorrow ends, remember that the minimalist decomposition of cycles will change DAILY based on today’s actual close and when that happens, what really matters will whether the slope fo the trend has changed enough (flat flag) to trigger a major long or sell position for the longer term.
This is the same problem my friend the Economic Fractalist encounters because you can’t pre-know which branching of a (fractal or decomposition) is dominant until it appears. Which gets me into the whole notion of adaptive weighting injection variables, but I have more runs to do. I won’t mention it again except on the Peoplenomics side.
That’s if I don’t have a lawn to mow.
Wright when you get rich… (working on it!)
George@ure.net
I believe you mentioned green tea a while back, and I started digging and arrived at “Life Extension Decaffinated Mega Green Tea Extract”. The supplement facts label on the back shows: serving size 1, amount per serving, green tea decaffeinated extract (leaf) (std. to 98% polyphenols, 45% EGCG).
I take it in the morning along with the capsule of 10% lithium orotate.
I’ve switched to decaffeinated tea and coffee because I seem to have reached the point in life-79 years, where after an Army staff-induced habit of a mega-daily-intake of high-test coffee, caffein now interacts with the adrenal gland, and instead of invigorating me, within 10 minutes of of cup of high-test, I’m sleepy to the point of falling asleep at the keyboard, and that has happened several times!
Bottom line, this tea capsule may be part of what you seek. GF
yes ive heard that and the older i get a cup of joe sometimes makes me relax and sleepy

Not advice, do your own homework.
Eventual statehood? For Mexixo?
Or perhaps a “greater Texas”.
Damn George, You’ve provided much to contemplate.
I’ve spent alot of time south of the border over the years. There’s good boat cruising. One thing I’ve found curious is that despite the U.S.’s hegemonistic bent, many Mexicans seem to have of favorable view it. My theory is that’s because the U.S. is the source of much of their enterainment media.
——–
In an effort to give back for all the interesting content this site has provided over the years (especially today), I’m submiting some of my own to the pile.
This for all the radio and travel buffs out there. 73’s
——————–
Life as an RO
During my years as radio officer on commerical ships I worked 3 types of vessels freighters,tankers & container ships. All these between 600-900 feet of length.
I belonged to a union and work for me first started with listing myself as available, then waiting for the distpatcher’s telephone call. All these were U.S. flagged ships with US crews. Some stints were coastal, most international.
It took me 6 years working vacation relief jobs, building up senority, before I was offered a permanent position on one of the Alaskan oil tankers. Those tankers load up on crude at the terminal in Valdez and take it down to various US west coast ports:
Anacortes/Port Roberts, San Francisco Bay, Los Angeles/LongBeach, Hawaii.
I REALLY liked the Hawaii trips, but all were good in their own way.
Ancortes: the smell of cedar,pine? whatever, plainly discernible once we entered Puget Sound. Such a treat after having been at sea where there really isn’t any smell, plus we’d pass close by the San Juan Islands.
SF bay: often times there’d be a wait for space at the terminal and we’d anchor off the city front. The shore boat would drop me off at the embaradero at the foot of Market st. Walking up Market street was a trip; stuffy suits coming from the highrises interspersed with all the weirdos.
You’d see it all on Market St.
LA: I kept a bike aboard and my parents lived about a 3 hour ride away. Most of that was bike path along the coast (I’d get a car ride back)
Hawaii (Oahu): After the grey & cold of the North Pacific, arriving in sunny Hawaii was so welcome. I was born there, in fact I could see the very hospital up in the hills on the hour long ride in. Shore boat would drop me at old Honolulu harbor and I’d spend the day biking around, feeling the warm sun and refreshing tradewinds on my bare chest. Heavenly it was.
Just as a aside, I was working when the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill happened (we were heading southbound to Hawaii) so it was a couple weeks until my ship revisited the area. By that time all the oil was no longer visable from the shipping channel that runs thru the middle of Prince William Sound.
I’m sure you’ll be shocked to hear the media totally misrepresented the story. They focused on the Capitan (who was down in his cabin writing up the departure report to give to the RO). That was standard procedure. See, by that time the ship was in Prince William Sound proper. The sound is 20+ miles wide. The pilot had departed. The person that should have been interviewed/investigated was the mate on watch.
I have my own thoughts on the matter if you have any questions, but today though, seeing as our host George is located in the great state of Texas, I thought I’d talk about the summer I worked on an old coastal tanker that shuttled between the refineries that pepper the Texas coast (Port Arthur, Texas City, Freeport, Corpus Christi) and terminals up on the U.S. North East coast (New Jersey, Rhode Island).
We carried various specialized products. Chemicals with longish names. Terms such as methyl, ethyl etc. in their bodies. Names ending in “ane” or “ene” or “ol” etc. I vaguely remembered from my college organic chemistry classes how one could determine a chemicals composition from its name. But that was about it.
For me though, the important point was that shortly before arrival we’d be sent the cargo manifest to load. We get a message from our office stating what product, how much, and what tank to put it in. It was important, vitally important, to get it right. We didn’t always carry the same products.
Someone back at headquarters obviously paid attention to what product had previously been in the now empty tank, and if it was compatible with the next to be loaded. If I messed up, conceivably, the fresh batch could be contaimated, or worse case, there’d be an “energetic” reaction.
As I recall, the gulf had two radio shore stations, Galveston and WLO in Mobile Alabama. And for some reason, we’d always have arrival in the early hours, with the cargo manifest message being available from the shore station late in the afternoon prior to arrival.
Now the Gulf coast in summertime is prone to afternoon thunder storms. By afternoon the airwaves were full of static. Best freqency to use was groundwave down in the 500khz range. Usually we were in the null zone for 4 MHZ (to far for ground wave, to close for sky wave). So, 500 it was. Make contact on 500 and drop down to 480khz or thereabouts for the working frequency.
Mind you, I was a relative newbie at this, not some grizzled veteran who could do 30 words per minute thru static with ease. I carried a small,portable,variable speed tape recorder with me and boy oh boy, did I use it.
Yeah, you could always ask for repeats, but shore stations were busy, time is money, the operator at the other end was anxious to get finished and handle others. So I knew there always was this pressure to get finished and give a QSL (acknowledge receipt).
Radio rooms are separate from the bridge (the wheelhouse). In fact, usually they’re one deck below. They sit off my themselves. My quarters were adjacent to the radio room. That’d be the setup on just about every ship. So they were relatively private, even with the door open. Good thing too,it wouldn’t do for someone to discover Sparks hunched over, ear to tape recorder, playing it slow speed, over & over & over.
We never blew up, no one ever discovered my secret.
———–
My last job in that line of work was most unique.
It began in the heart of “down east” Maine, and at it’s furthest extent had me roaming the halls of the Hermitage, St.Petersburg, Russia.
But that’s a story for another day
Sailor
God, what a wonderful story. Did you ever happen to run intio Dave Whiting? Ran RO for APL US Japan for decades… lost track of him. kay seven charlie ocean charlie if I remember
No, never did.
RO’s tend to be solidary birds, best one could hope for was that the guy you were relieving would show you around for an hour before taking off.
Funny, you should bring up the technicial aspect of the job. That’s exactly the reason I got accepted into the union’s apprentice program. Many of the old guys didn’t have much in the way of tech skills, only CW.
After my years as an RO, I went on to become a Network/network security engineer. A good one too, until I realized the futility of being in a profession where government policy was to import H1Bs (mostly Indian & Pakistani) to suppress wages and fatten large corporations.
When Obamacare (socialized medicine) was implemented, that was the last straw.
I rarely have need to see a doctor and NO way was I going to be a tax donkey for all the fat asses that didn’t take care of their bodies.
Not in the criminal racket that is the US medical system.
Not in high tax/high expense California.
So I went galt and split south.
But that’s a story for another day
I got to visit the radio room on the Queen Elizabeth on a trip to France in 1961, it was big and old with vintage radios all black and crinkly. Chairs and 2 or 3 operating positions.
On the Coronia return ship I asked again and was just shown a closet full of VHF looking things, no operator.
Last time I talk to DW the shiop op, he said there was a big change – and it was less about 25 wpm CW and more about understanding how to keep elevators running for crews and crane controls and all kinds of engine system and wires all oveer hell and gone,. Life changes though – son G2 has gone through that – once a firefighter EMT he’s now doing construction site safety – way more dough and regular hours and sduch. We all float into new skills as we age, or dont

The Wild Bunch vs. The Mexicans – Final Shootout
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=US-F97M4Elo
The Wild Bunch is a 1969 American epic revisionist Western film directed by Sam Peckinpah and starring William Holden, Ernest Borgnine, Robert Ryan, Edmond O’Brien, Ben Johnson and Warren Oates. The plot concerns an aging outlaw gang on the Mexico–United States border trying to adapt to the changing modern world of 1913. The film was controversial because of its graphic violence and its portrayal of crude men attempting to survive by any available means.
Regarded as one of the greatest films of all time, The Wild Bunch was selected by the Library of Congress in 1999 for preservation in the United States National Film Registry as “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant”.

personally, I just take the supplement EGCG ….. simple, no tea drinking required, whatever your tea flavor happens to be :) …. good luck all
I personally love dandelion chai…and blue butterfly pea tea and lotus ..
? Did you EAT THE LOTUS ?
Actually I know you didnt, otherwise Youse would be Tripping Ballz right now. Yes written record of ancient Egyptians tripping on The Lotus that grew along da Nile river. I have an old color print of diff colored Lotuses from banks of Nile – from my old Mans collection. I actually gave it to my Alcoholic Sister, to decorate the apartment I was providing for Her, when She was still amongst the Living.
Get Smart Tea – Richters – Canada..herbal, non caffeinated- my go to Herbal tea.
Of course knowing what a Genius I am – not sure if the Tea helps. LionsMane – in Coffee, Check, – Chaga – in Coffee, Check – Cocoa Powderin Coffee – Check. Morning pot of Joe (frenchpress) is very “toothy” with 3 additives every morning.
When I have regular strong Black Coffee (like ChockfullofNutz) with C&S, it tastes like watered down leftover “spillings” wrung out from a sponge.
Otherwise BCP is a hardcore OooooLoong kinda Tea drinker.
* Yes – that is what she said the first time “they” met ! bwhahahahah
I have been using lotus for a very long time..made lotus wine , from the recipe of the first emperor.. the forbidden wine still have six bottles left.. I have never just eaten lotus flower I know the young leaves are eaten in a salad like spinach and they roast the seeds..there’s A soup mix but I have never eaten lotus flowers..never tripped out with it..it does go great with an English muffin and honey..there is a vegan spice blend with lotus in it..but I’ve never tried that I like good shit spice for meats and Dash for the majority of the others.. I had read about using the blue lotus tea or broth in with rice and such but not the flower itself..the tea though is top notch..a real draw between the dandelion chai and blue lotus..I save the blue lotus for snowy days …
I am going to try elder flower/ lotus tea.. A little ginger in it honey to taste..yumm

Good work on the work. I was talking to a Yemeni babe about a week ago. I did try to lure her over with the crystal ball shtick but she didn’t by it. She went on to explain the Jinn from Yemen folklore. People w/mental illness, usually women in Yemen are said to be possessed by the Jinn and after possession will be taken to an old man, instead of mental services, and he will beat them until the Jinn leaves their body. Laughs had by all.
Anyway, she needed some work done on her house. She hired Spanish speaking folks and they used Google Translate* to communicate back and forth. She was satisfied with the work and spoke no Spanish.
