This bizarro world

Things continue to get more and more surreal. Want more proof. The Supreme Court has just declared that half of Oklahoma is owned by the American Indians and things will be even stranger.

Meanwhile back in Seattle decided to defund the police by 50% and required all shite government employees to renounce their "whiteness"

For over a decade I have been saying what is coming. I was on private forums and said there would be internet censorship in the west and I was laughed at and called a conspiracy theorist. I provided links to source documents from the CFR and other NGOs where they said this is where they wanted to bring the west.

Many of my Christian friends believe end times can be avoided or that they will "raptured". It doesn't work that way. The New World Order needs martyrs. Christians and other believers in God. Look around you, this is reality and it is going to get worse. There will be a calm before the storm; but, the storm will show.

Laughing my ass off, people anticipate a one world government without understanding what it means. The coming economic reset is the one world order. The worldwide economic "reset" is the new world order. It will be preceded by a worldwide economic crash. At first their solutions will make you slightly better off, debts will be reduced or forgiven; but the cost will be control over you and you will take it. I won't.

They will offer you freedom from debt in exchange for your freedom and their regulations. Once the new economic system is in place, the replacement economic system will see the largest international transfer of wealth in history.

DO NOT BAIL OUT STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS

WND - Needing help, Newsome and Cuomo tone down criticism of Trump.

So, the states which had the strictest lockdowns made less in tax payments. What a surprise. If you cannot sell products or services and cannot pay employees, states get less in tax revenue. California claims it needs $54 billion and New York claims it needs $13 billion. These governor's are the same people that closed down the businesses. Did they not know it would effect tax collection? They want the states that didn't shut down all business to pay for their decisions. The coastal states did nothing for the Midwest other than outsource their jobs and industries and now want to take their money away too. If we bail out California and New York, I guarantee you they will lock us down again come October. BTW, I live in California.

Instead of bailing out these states, let them take their boot off of the local businesses and the taxes will be made up. Let them increase their own taxes and take responsibility for their actions, see if they get re-elected. 

Let's Talk About the Election

When the election for President began, I stated that I wanted to see Sanders or Trump win and that I would never vote for a Clinton or a Bush. I wrote that on this blog at the time. I also stated that I preferred Sanders. As the election went on I pointed out how the system was rigged against them both and wrote about delegates and super-delegates. I talked about how the Republican party was trying to cheat Trump and I talked about how the Democratic party was attempting to cheat Bernie.

Tonight I watched a movie on Netflix called, "Get Me Roger Stone". It is a documentary about one of Trump's advisors named Roger Stone. It is basically all about how Roger Stone is a very flawed person, he is. It then overemphasizes what he did for Trump. It links Stone closely to Alex Jones who I have also said I will not link to here. The final conclusion of the movie is that Stone is linked to Russia and that WikiLeaks is linked to Russia and that Trump's association links him to Russia. Ta da. What a bunch of garbage.

I laughed at the directors attempt to talk about Stone's "dirty tricks" while ignoring what the other candidates people did and their advertisements and their accusations. This film is propaganda and bad propaganda. It's single greatest flaw is ignoring why Trump and Sanders were so popular. The Democratic establishment will tell you that it was xenophobic, homophobic, misogynistic and racists that got Trump elected. The Republican establishment will tell you that it was a rejection of the liberals. Neither answer is true, neither will admit what it really was and is exactly what I predicted years ago on this very blog when the Occupy movement was shut down long before this election even began or anyone knew that Bernie and Trump would run.

This election was a rejection of the establishment and how this country is being run. Simple numbers tell you that. Trump, with 16 opponents Trump won the Republican nomination. Bernie almost won the nomination and split the party. If you take the number of people who voted Bernie in the primaries and add it to the number of people who voted Trump in the primaries it accounted for more votes by double for all the other candidates.25% of all voters in the primaries voted Republican establishment, 25% of all voters in the primaries voted for the Democratic establishment and 50% of all voters went for the anti-establishment Trump or Sanders. This election was a rejection by half of the country of the establishment and the Democrats and the Republican establishment see that.

The media will talk about phony reasons that Trump won; but, they don't talk about what Trump and Sanders have in common an it is that they both reject the establishment. People did not vote for Sanders because they thought he could achieve what he said, he couldn't.. If Jeb had won and Sanders had won the primaries, Jeb might have won the presidency; but, he couldn't win because Republicans don't like the Bushes anymore, they see them as the establishment.

Ask the average person what WikiLeaks is and they don't have a clue. During the Occupy movement I explained that we were seeing a reaction to the economic crash and how only Wall Street was bailed out with your money. I then said that I expected the people on the left and right to show up again but in a new way, they did, they came out for Trump and Sanders. Trump is a consequence of the Republican establishment co-opting and destroying the Tea Party. Sanders is the result of Obama destroying the Occupy movement. I also predicted that if we did not see a Trump or Sanders things would only get bad. Everyone is mad at the establishment, half the population is just still drinking the cool aid and believing the establishment is willing to change. Hillary lost because too many real liberals didn't vote at all, look at Obama's numbers and Hillary's. If it had been Jeb versus Sanders, you would have seen the exact same thing. The people who voted for Trump would probably not voted for Bush even against Hillary.

After Brexit and Trump, the establishment had a meltdown. They actually called for the electoral college to violate their duties, that was called for in mainstream media. They wrote articles about how the constitution's electoral college is evil and later about how the members should break the law and not do their duty. They called for impeaching Trump before he even got into office and it has not stopped. How hysterical has the media gotten? Well, how about this article from CNN - Trump gets 2 scoops of ice cream, everyone else gets 1.  During the election there were too many articles in mainstream media about what food Trump ate that it was ludicrous and they were all negative. How do you write negative articles about what food someone likes? I called it out when one of the biggest papers in the world wrote about how Trump liked his steaks cooked (well done and that means he is a bad person according to the article).

The establishment on the left and the right will do anything to remove Trump and return control of this country over to the establishment, they are not going to give it to Sanders. The problem for the establishment is that most Bernie supporters can see the nonsense behind the Trump attacks as a Russian agent. This is why the Democratic party is split in the middle and at war with itself.

It doesn't matter who is President if Trump is impeached over lies or killed. People on the left and right will know that you didn't impeach  or kill Trump, you showed what happens if you don't do what the establishment wants. The people are not happy with the way things have been going on for the last 30+ years, they are not happy with what happened when the economy crashed and how they paid more in taxes so that the 1% that crashed the economy could stay in business thinking that they might create jobs; but, that didn't happen, there was no trickle down recovery.

Jobs, Water and Banking. Things you should follow.

Washington Examiner - Jeb Bush warns robots taking US jobs is not science fiction.  Jeb points out that 38% of the jobs could be gone in the next decade. His answer, more education. The truth, not everyone can learn to be a computer programmer well enough to start their own game company. If the average IQ is 100 then half the people on earth have IQs that are lower than that. How many people with IQs of 80 can we really expect to become scientists or computer programmers? Jeb also wants Trump to bring up the issue; but, not do anything to address it.

PWC-  Up to 30% of existing UK jobs could be impacted by automation by early 2030s, but this should be offset by job gains elsewhere in economy. Basically, tech people are saying the same thing as Bush. Funny thing is none of them can tell you why we will need the same number of employees when all the manufacturing and physically strenuous labor jobs are gone or why we would suddenly need ten times as many people in tech jobs. They do admit the rich will get richer; but, ignore the poor getting poorer as much as possible.

Las Vegas Sun - Water officials to crack down on overuse of private wells.  In 2009 Nevada began planning on regulating the use of wells on people's private property.

Pahrump Valley Times - Voluntary well metering urged.  In 2014 a county in Nevada decides they don't want to follow state law and issue water permits for people using private wells.

Pahrump Valley Times - Well owners, utilities quarrel over water plans. 

mynews4.com - Hundreds voice opinions on recommendations to meter Nevada wells.

Bloomberg - Cohn Backs Wall Street Split of Lending, Investment Banks.  There are fears on Wall Street that the Trump administration wants to bring back Glass Steagall. We would not have had the crash if Glass Steagall had not been gutted by the Republicans and Democrats.

You Have To Keep an Eye on Politicians Making Investing Decisions

We are continuing to see a couple hundred views per day. I do hope that those who enjoy my ramblings would be kind enough to send others here to check out the site. I am currently considering posting on YouTube. I would probably make videos with no pictures of me, just illustrative pictures and a voice recording.

I don't have a problem with public speaking, I am just not sure if I want my face on the internet. The truth is that blogging began dying out just as I started this blog. The chance of getting heard is greater on YouTube than it is on blogger. Two things I do not like about vlogging are the facts that it forces one to act faster and it's focus on images. I prefer the written word; but, if the words are not heard it does not matter and format determines distribution. I don't monetize this site, it pays nothing; but, being more widely distributed would be nice. I seek to cause conversation, not agreement.

Let's talk about pensions, how you are played and how money is stolen from others because of you. That is a head scratcher isn't it. Here is an article, you have to read it to get the joke.

The Mercury News - U.S.-Mexico border wall fight: California considers divesting from companies involved in the project.  The Mercury News is the newspaper for San Jose, a very liberal tech area. People in that area are really in favor of immigration, especially tech people, it keeps wages down. The article talks about how the state legislature wants to make a law telling the pension funds that they cannot invest in any company that helps build the wall between the United States and Canada.

While you ponder how you feel about the wall, you miss the point. While you ponder whether people should or should not buy stock in companies that you think should change their policies or who they contract with. While you ponder these things that are irrelevant, you miss the point. You miss the trick, start by knowing politicians are fraudsters and everything they say is for another reason, their priorities are not what you think, their priorities are them.

The pension fund in question is not owned by the state, it is owned by the people that have paid into the pension, the pensioners. The state does NOT own the pension, it is not their money. A pension is like a bank account, it is forced savings by you and for you in lieu of getting paid more money now. Politicians in California want to tell the pension fund where they can and cannot invest; but, are the willing to pay the pension fund if it loses money because of these investments? NO, they are not. Remember how we have been told every public pension in the country is bankrupt, they are not, now the politicians want to force investment decisions that might hurt the pensions even more with the state being responsible. If the state dictates how the pensions invest, the state takes on legal responsibility for the pensions wins and losses.

The game you are witnessing is not about border walls, it is not about Trump, it is about stealing pension money, directing where it goes and being paid for such help. I have not written about pensions in a while and some of my newer readers may not understand what I am talking about. For them, find the tag at the bottom of this post which says "pension fraud", if you click it you should see all the other posts about this subject. Basically, everything you believe about the state of public pensions is a lie, they are in a great place. I know that is hard to believe; but, remember the media lies to take care of corporate interests. Read the posts.

Pension are being robbed because that is where the money is in the eyes of Wall Street. Thieves do not rob Fort Know, they rob the local bank that is not as savvy or well protected. That is the reason the biggest crooks in the past 20 years are stealing from pensions and 401k's. Read the posts about Elliot Broidy and the CIM Group, read the posts and understand that all the politicians involved benefited from helping developers in their cities.

I have noticed that the new readers are focused on politics. the pension fraud threads are politics and money and propaganda.

Exposing The Media's Social Bias Favoring the Establishment

Let us assume that Trump is the Anti-Christ, Nazi jerk. Lets just assume that is all true and that the media is right in vilifying him because he talked about a woman's private parts to another guy on a bus. Assume whatever horrible thing about him you wish. Justify all the harsh criticism and media against him is justified. Here is my simple question, why haven't they taken the same attitude about the swine that bankrupt this country?

JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs and other multinational banks intentionally destroyed this nation and other nations economies and rigged all of the financial markets. Why have we not seen the same outrage over these criminals?

How much time has the media actually spent discussing how jobs are being sent overseas or how these same companies are avoiding paying taxes in the United States compared to how much time they have spent discussing the Kardashians rear-ends or Trump's attitude about women?

I have said before. this election is exposing more about he media and the establishment than about the candidates. Look at how the media ignores the Podesta e-mails or the O'Keefe videos showing Democratic operatives openly discussing rigging the vote and for me that is not the real fear. The real fear is that the electoral college will be manipulated as has been promoted by the Washington Post and others if needed to give Hillary the election.

By the way, I am not talking about during this election, I am talking about since the economic collapse. Not a day goes by in the last year and a half that the media does not spotlight some shortcoming in Trump. How many days have gone by with the media not discussing Jimie Dimon and JP Morgan fixing the markets with nobody going to jail yet?

The party establishment are neither liberal nor conservative, they are all multi-nationalist oligarchs and their supporters. The media is neither liberal nor conservative either, they are the establishment and part of the oligarchy. When six companies own 90% of the media, that is by definition an oligarchical media.

Clinton, a Crooked New York Politican and Speeches to the Big Banks.

So suddenly I find I am getting a lot of traffic looking up Elliott Broidy and hits to a post from a couple of years ago about him. I searched to see why Mr. Broidy was in the news again and found out that there is yet another attempt to attack Trump based on his connection to Trump. That connection is that Broidy, who has been a long time fundraiser for the Republicans, is working on the committee that is raising money for the Presidential campaign where half the money goes to the local Republican groups. I wrote about this when it first came up maybe a year ago. I didn't bother following up because there is nothing to follow up on.

Now, it only takes a little reading to see that I am NO friend of Mr. Broidy's and have pointed out his criminality in the past. Heck, one of my major tags is Pension Fraud and that is what he is filed under. Still, today Mr. Broidy and my friends at CIM Group can rest assured that this is not another post about any of them. I may have to get into Mr. Alan Hevesi, the man who solicited the bribes from Mr. Broidy. Nope, I am here to talk about the media and show you how it is playing you and attempting to deflect upcoming WikiLeaks from hurting Hillary. Huffington Post - Trump Won Tax Breaks While Donating Tens Of Thousands To Corrupt Official. Of course, the Observer reported this in 2006, Hillary: Enough Hevesi Already.  A quote from the article, "“This is not a pleasant experience for those of us who are friends of his.”If Mr. Hevesi were elected and then removed or resigned, she said pointedly, the governor is entitled to appoint a successor".

Firstly, there were a bunch of articles in the last couple of days about how Donald Trump contributed to Alan Hevesi's campaign. Okay, doesn't really say anything, a New York businessman contributed to a Democrats political campaign. Did I leave out that Hevesi is a Democrat? Look it up, it is true. Heck, Trump contributed to the Clinton campaigns. Here is an algebra question, if you believe every political campaign Trump contributed was a crook then you believe the Clintons are crooks. Lets look a little deeper. Did you know that the Clintons were friends with Hevesi? That didn't seem to make it into the articles about Trump. In fact, a 2009 article in the New York Daily News was headlined, "Bill Clinton's pal earned huge pension fees: Marvin Rosen's firm got millions during Hevesi reign".

Here is what is coming. WikiLeaks is going to release items showing that the Clintons were working with Hevesi. These articles are a pre-emptive strike. Another article today from the AP tries to show that Hillary attempted to get Bill Clinton to not give a speech to the big banks WHILE she was campaigning in Iowa. MSN - AP - Email: Clinton campaign sought to cancel Wall Street speech.  After "cooling down", according to the article, she later. Wait, the article actually says, if you bother reading it, that Hillary wanted him to still give the speech and only later "cooled down" and told him not to. That is sort of the opposite of what the title of the article implies. Hmmm.

So, what we have are stories in the last couple of days about Hevesi and Trump and Bill Clinton giving highly paid speeches to the banksters while she is working on her campaign in Iowa. Hmmm. I forgot, in the last couple of days I also read an article about how these same banks are afraid that if Hillary wins she will be tough on them. LOL. Yeah. Wouldn't that be biting the hand that feeds you, the same one who you tell the truth to in private while lying to those average American deplorables and basement dwellers?

Yeah, if the Clinton supporters in the media are all talking about the banks, Hevesi and Clinton speeches at the same time then expect WikiLeaks to release something regarding the Clintons ties to these things in the next few days and it will be serious.

The Second Presidential Debate

The lead up was all about some 11 year old secret taping of Trump talking about how he tried to get some lady in Florida to go to bed with him. The media wanted to talk about the words he used, if he was a misogynist (technically Webster' defines it as a hatred of women) and how this "scandal" was going to play out in the debate. The pundits also discussed how this was do or die for Trump and such things.

Well, the debate is over and if I had to pick a winner I would say it was Trump. I also don't think it matters or swayed any votes. Media talking points made by the media to draw viewers just don't matter that much. The fact is that Hillary and many in the media, such as the Huffington Post, have been claiming this for a year and a half plus. Accusing Trump of having slept around is also pointless and he was in the newspapers and magazines when he was a young playboy in New York. He used to hand out at Studio 54 with his dates (sorry if you are too young to remember the late 70s and early 80s) and he was far from alone in doing that. In fact, the Prime Minister of Canada's, at that time, wife used to also attend those parties at that club.

While many politicians are faking a sort of prudish shock, the reality is that millennials do not care one bit about who or how many women Trump slept with. Now, just prior to the debate Trump had the media in a room with four of the women who had slept with Bill Clinton while he was married including one who he settled out of court with.

With all this pre-debate drama, the debate itself was pretty much the same answers we have heard before from both sides. In truth, I don't think any of the debates have changed people's opinions on who they are going to vote for.

The one thing that did disappoint was the moderators failure to get any answers out of Hillary about her call for a North American Union with open borders and open trade. That is a real discussion that should be had, not just in this race; but, in this country because that was the purpose behind the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

For too many years the left and right have divided over social issues while both sides have been hammered by the economic reality of outsourcing jobs and the failure of the political forces to prosecute criminal financial activity by the biggest banks and brokerage firms. I do not care who Hillary slept with or sleeps with, I do not care who Bill slept with or sleeps with and I do not care who Trump slept with or sleeps with. These issues will not effect the lives of my children or grandchildren; but, a North American political, trade and immigration union would.

UPDATE:

As expected the media and the candidates surrogates have traveled to spin town and foolishness prevails. People on the left have said that Trump may have done well at the debate; but, not well enough that he will not still lose. People on the right have said Trump won the debate and has moved the momentum back to him. I didn't think the first debate changed anyone's vote and believe Hillary did better, I didn't think the Vice Presidential changed anyone's vote and thought Pence did better and I don't think the second Presidential debate has changed anyone's vote and believe Trump did better. Here is my question, did any of the debates matter? If none of the debates changed people's votes than why does the media make noise as if it did when they are just taking sides with their preferred candidate, why should we even listen to their stories? My answer is for the amusement factor and so that people can see better how they are lied to and manipulated by the media.

If someone does not know who Trump or Clinton is than they are not going to vote. That is the truth, people who don't know who the candidates are is so removed from politics that they are not voters. Nobody who wants open borders and free trade is going to vote for Trump and George Bush has proven that along with others in the Republican Party that have promoted either Hillary or Johnson. Nobody who is against open borders and the trade agreements is going to vote for Hillary. This is why the battleground is over millennials. Hillary is betting that they are more concerned about social issues so she focuses on Trump not being in line with their views on multiculturalism. Trump believes they are more concerned about jobs and opportunity so that is what he is selling.

Iceland, Dishonest Banks and Debt.

Someone posted a comment on the last post asking what I thought about what happened in Iceland with the banks. Basically, the banks made lots of crazy loans and focused on foreign citizens to move their money to Iceland. That is a really general comment on what happened. This all went on at the same time that our banks were getting into derivatives and other risky investment. For my readers who are not familiar with what happened in Iceland, here is a link.

Wikipedia - 2009 Icelandic financial crisis protests. 

The people of Iceland were asked to bail out the banks that defaulted and they said no. Their economy recovered and they are now fine. We could have done the same and did not. To be specific, President Bush bailed out the banks with tax dollars from you and me.

I was being asked what I would have done. I would have nationalized any bank that the government had to bail out and taken it's assets just like they do when you don't pay your mortgage. Almost all home loans are now owned by the United States government (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) and if you cannot pay your mortgage the repossess the property. I would also recommend nationalizing companies that do not pay their taxes and instead hide their money overseas. If you don't pay your taxes they can take your property. Why do the rich get treated differently? That is my response to the comment that was left in a little greater detail.

Now, I am going to write about the newest presidential debate for my next post.

Why Control of the Internet is Being Turned Over to the United Nations.

Even the right wing media misses the real point. I will point out the real issues and facts. By the way, it is not actually being turned over to the U.N.

Breitbart - FCC Commissioner on Internet Oversight Switch: ‘If You Cherish Free Expression,’ ‘You Should Be Worried,’ This Is ‘Irreversible’.  So an FCC commissioner doesn't want to see control of the internet given to ICANN because it has members from foreign countries. What nonsense.

Yahoo - Internet caretaker ICANN to escape US control. 

When I began this blog I wrote about ICANN. When I began this blog one of the groups that worked form me was a systems group and I used to ask every new employee if they knew who owned the internet and not one of them ever knew or had heard of ICANN. They would instead tell me nobody owned the internet and look at me as if I were stupid. I would then tell them that the United States government owned the internet and they would not believe me. Guess what, the United States government still owns the internet. The federal government created the internet (ARPnet originally) and owns the parts that make it work. The same is true for GPS by the way, it uses 3 satellites all owned by the military.

If you in any way wish to understand the world you should understand who owns the internet. ICANN does NOT own the internet. ICANN controls the internet because it has a contract with the federal government to do so. Without the contract from the government ICANN has NO right to do anything. It doesn't even have the right to assign domain names, it's number one job.

Here is the real issue for the establishment. The first amendment applies to the federal government, ICANN only has a say over the internet because they are given that right by the government. This means that the internet must follow the rules set forth by the federal government and the government must follow the constitution.

The two biggest issues the establishment is interested in are controlling what is said over the internet and forcing everyone to have a unique public identification that uses the internet. Some seem to believe that by turning over the internet to ICANN it can then be purchased by other countries or more likely American companies who will then profit from this public infrastructure that was created by your tax dollars.

The FCC wants to keep control over the internet; but, it does not control the internet. That is a power grab. Investors want to control the internet because they could charge lots of money and force you to follow their rules or pay them a fee for using the internet. The questions about who controls the internet are about money and power and the government wants to turn those things over to others rather than keep it under the control of the federal government because you can vote to change what the government does.

More Media Propaganda Exposed.

Yahoo - Trump moneyman’s shady history.  So the Republican National Committee and the Trump for President organization have joined together for joint fundraising. This is pretty common, when someone gets their party's nomination they work with their parties national committee to coordinate their actions. Joint committee means that Trump and the RNC chose members of the committee, that is sort of what joint means. In fact during a dinner in Los Angeles, Trump said he was glad to be raising funds to help the party keep Hillary from being elected. That is an odd thing to say, isn't it? He is the nominee, why didn't he say he was thrilled to be raising money for his general campaign. Hmmmm.

Well, it turns out that one of the members on that committee is a man from Los Angeles who I have written about many times over the years, Mr. Elliot Broidy. Mr. Broidy sat on the pension boards for the City of Los Angeles and the state of California, he also pled guilty to felony charges over his bribing government officials in New York. In fact, one of the people who he bribed was the Comptroller for the State of New York. As for Mr. Broidy, I am on record for having called for him to be questioned regarding his actions on the pension boards of California and Los Angeles. I have dozens and dozens of posts calling the man a crook and they go back seven years. I am not afraid of either Mr. Broidy or CIM Group suing me because I never post what I cannot back up and always identify my sources and provide links to them. While I suspect both of them of more than I will write about at the moment, I will not make accusations I cannot document. This is the same reason that I will not post accusations that I have received regarding the death of Pastor Carol Daniels, for that my answer remains constant, if you have proof take it to the police not the Pimpernel. If either CIM or Mr. Broidy chose to sue me, I would get answers to my questions to them and they would settle with me out of court in my favor rather than answer them. I have studied them for seven years or so and know exactly who I would drag into depositions. What is the point of all this, I know a lot about Mr. Broidy; but, what I do not know is whether he is working for the RNC or the Vote Trump faction; but, I have an idea. I know that Mr. Broidy has worked fundraisers for Republicans for decades, in fact Mr. Broidy has worked for awhile on the Republican Jewish Coalition.

I bring this up because, well, surprise, the media is intentionally making false innuendos about Trump without backing it up. I want you to do a internet search for "Donald Trump" "Elliot Broidy", you will not find anything linking them in the past and don't forget, Broidy was busted in New York where Trump is big news. In fact, five of the 20 members of the coalition sat on the Republican Jewish Coalition, many of whom worked on those groups during the Bush administration. Here is an article from the Times of Israel - Five Jewish donors on joint GOP-Trump fundraising team. You see, Mr. Broidy has been a big Israel supporter and many of his companies investments were in Israel companies, in fact, he has said that he created one of the funds specifically to promote investment in Israel. The article from the Israeli press says that many American Jews are leery of Trump because he has not given 100% of his support to anything that Israel might do and wants Israel to negotiate with the Palestinians.

Now, here is what is amazing, if you search for Trump and Broidy, you will find dozens and dozens of articles saying that Broidy is Trump's "shady" moneyman. Firstly, Mr. Broidy is not "shady", he is a convicted criminal. Secondly, there is nobody who has written that Trump hired or chose Mr. Broidy or even if Broidy is on the committee representing the RNC or Trump, why not? If Trump and Broidy have a past, why not doesn't the media disclose it, I would. Here is another question, why are there more articles about Broidy working on this joint committee than there were outside of New York when he pled guilty to bribing the New York State Comptroller?

How many people are going to pick up on this fact?  How many reading these articles about "Trump moneyman" are going to know anything about Mr. Broidy's history? How many are going to question the article or look at what it doesn't say, how it uses misdirection to imply things that are misleading? Look, the reality is that nobody cares about this article or the implications, nobody trusts the media when it comes to Trump. There is a thing called overplaying your hand and the media has done it; but, doesn't know what else to do.

Over the last couple of days there has been a lot of talk about how establishment Republicans are considering supporting the Libertarian candidate as a third party candidate so that Trump will not win. LOL. This is the dumbest idea I have read in a long time and lets face it, there have been many dumb ideas by the establishment to stop Trump that have failed miserably. If you are a liberal then you probably always believed Republicans are racists, so why are their "leaders" fighting Trump. Some say the Republicans created Trump; but, were only kidding. The Republican establishment is only concerned with tax breaks for the wealthy, they don't care about Americans, the middle class, illegal immigrants, gays, abortion or anything else, just their pocketbook and that fits in perfectly with the Libertarian PARTY, not the Libertarian philosophy. True middle class and working class Republicans will not vote for the Libertarian Party, not gonna happen. I should also point out that the vast majority of Republicans are more concerned about Hillary winning than believe a vote for a Libertarian Party candidate will stop her. That is just a fact. If you get confused, remember, 6 companies own 90% of all the media and all six are globalists, not American nationalists.

Trump and Debt

Huffington Post - Great, Donald Trump Threatened To Default On The National Debt.  I want to tell you something and expose a hypocrisy. Donald Trump has said that he would borrow money to fix our infrastructure and would consider re-negotiating the rates if we couldn't pay them. This has driven the left and the right crazy. Both sides say they have never heard of such a thing and that it is outrageous.

You may or may not remember what the Federal Reserve Chairman said during the economic crisis. He said he wasn't worried because we could always just print more dollars to pay our debts. Guess what, it is the exact same thing. Here is the difference. When we print more money, the money you have is worth less. If he offers 90 cents on the dollar for government debt, the money you have is worth the same amount. I know this is sort of technical but I want to explain it a little more.

By the way, the people that buy U.S. debt, tends to be the same banks that we bailed out during the economic crisis. In my humble opinion, we should have nationalized those banks and then bailed them out. I also believe that the heads of the banks that rigged the Libor and commodities markets should have gone to jail and we should have seized all of their assets.

I will go one step further. While at dinner with my conservative friends tonight we were discussing politics and the issue of companies sending jobs overseas came up. I gave a suggestion, I would nationalize Apple and Carrier. Sounds really communistic except I would then sell the stock to Americans who would then be the new stock holders. That is capitalism and nationalism at work. Anyone who works against the best interest of America and Americans is my enemy. My friends liked the idea.

One more story. I am working with a realtor who is from South Africa, he has been here for like 40 years. He supports Trump. I have had the opportunity to get to know the guy a bit and he sees what is happening here. In case you are wondering, he was against apartheid and worked with blacks in South Africa even though it was frowned on at the time.

The fact of the matter is that our friends who are middle class and live in foreign countries, like England, want to see us get our jobs back and secure our borders. The battle we are seeing is not between different cultures, it is between globalist, elitists and nationalist, middle and working class citizens.

The friends I went to dinner with tonight are the most conservative people I know. Old school, cold war Republicans who hate socialism. They are also loving, caring, gentle and giving. They don't read the blog so I can say this. I know they want to lend me the money to buy my mobile home, I know this, they have hinted at it enough. I also know that they give a lot to charity. Look, I have the best friends in the world and they have been with me through some pretty ugly times. None of my readers ever have to worry about me, ever. I can pretty much have anything I want and that is the problem because there isn't anything I want that I don't have. I want to read the news, write and pretty much be left alone other than family and friends. I have those things.

I don't want my friends help because I am a prideful old man. I earned what I have and I have enough. If I absolutely needed help, it is there and I would take it. The hardest lessen and I wrote about this, was learning that if we help others, we have to be willing to be helped if we need it and I don't need it. My choices are not based on need or force, I don't respond to those things and walk my own path.

I have had people say that they like my blog; but, don't like the spiritual stuff. Well, if I didn't say the spiritual stuff than they would not know me. I would not be open and honest to hide those things. I have absolute faith that God will take care of me. If my friends have to help me than I am concerned that it will appear that I do not have that faith. It might be easier to take help; but, I have faith in God.

Bank of America $17 Billion Payment to Investors

This is going to be a short post, just something to think about. The banks have been fined billions by the government; but, just about all of that money went to pay off investors who bought mortgage backed securities. The banks gave out loans for more than they were worth and sold the loans. Now they are being forced to pay back the investors; but, the property owners get almost nothing. The gamblers get paid and the people who were duped into outrageous debt get nothing. Why didn't the property owners get paid first or at all? Because you don't matter, the same reason nobody went to jail for fraud in the banking industry or for fixing markets. They pay fines; but, not to the consumers, not to you and I. Oh, and their fines are tax deductible, if you steal someone's purse or rob their home, do you get to deduct court fines from your taxes. I bet not.

I hope all my regulars witll read this post.

Fox - U.S. Issues More Curbs to Corporate Tax Inversion Deals.  In the most direct terms, American companies make deals with foreign companies to take the American companies assets and then they move their operations overseas thereby avoiding paying taxes. It is basically the asset robbing of America and very recently the Treasury Department enacted some laws to delay or prevent this action. The term Tax Inversion is used to describe this hiding of taxable income overseas, that is what the term refers to. So, a coupe of days ago the United States took action to prevent this crime. That is part one of this story. This came out April 4th.

The Hill - GOP tax writers rip Treasury for moves to deter corporate inversions. This article came out April 5th. Yeah, one day later the spin is on. The spin is that it is bad for our nation to keep our manufacturing jobs in the United States. If you hate Obama; but, want to keep jobs in America, you had better support this change which stops companies from outsourcing and leaving this nation with nothing. I don't like Obama; but, I like this policy and it has already worked.

CNBC - Pfizer, Allergan will mutually terminate merger over inversion rule changes, sources say.  Here is a sentence from the article, "Pfizer had reportedly stood to cut its costs by more than $1 billion a year by changing its domicile." Why did the Bushes and the Clintons sign legislation that let American companies move overseas and save money by doing it?

I have been writing this blog for years and have never advertised it or monetized it, no ads on this site ever and there never will be because of me. I have never asked for a penny and don't want any now. What I want my readers to do, if they think I present people with useful information, is tell others to read it and let them see what is really going on. Have them start with the posts titled "What's going on" and tagged as "the big picture". What is going on is so obvious to me and I am saddened that more people don't see it all for what it is.

Planned Economic Crash Courtesy of the IMF - Wikileaks Proves It

WikiLeaks - IMF Internal Meeting Predicts Greek 'Disaster', Threatens to Leave Troika.  WikiLeaks has released the transcript of a conversation which was had between two International Monetary Fund (IMF) heads regarding Greece, it's bailout and Brexit (the British vote on leaving the European Union). I know most Americans don't follow these things; but, this post is not about the EU or the Greece bailout, it is about something much bigger.

WikiLeaks - The Transcript.

Here is a quote from the transcript, "VELKOULESKOU: They want to finish that mission ideally by the 8th of April, so just a week. Or by the 12th or the 13th. Remember on the 6th and 7th of April they want to have this Washington Group debt meeting on the sidelines of the EWG [Eurogroup Working Group], and then.... "  Basically, they are saying that the Greece decision has to be completed before discussing American debt in Washington; but, the two things are unrelated as the debt that is held is EU debt, not American. So you have to ask yourself what is the real connection.

The same person then discusses how they need to wrap up the negotiations because people in Greece are questioning the Income Tax Credit, not tax reform. Who do you figure gets the credit, the rich or the poor and why would the IMF want to give tax breaks when they also want to cut pensions and other benefits?

What becomes clear from the discussion is that the IMF plans on creating an economic "event" in order to get Greece to do what the IMF wants and that they can pick the time when the event will occur. It is also clear that this economic event will effect not just Greece and Europe; but, also the United States and probably all western nations. What I find really interesting is that none of the mass media has picked up on this story to any great degree. This is odd as the timing of the event is somehow related to the refugee question and the vote by Britain on whether or not it will stay in the EU.

Here is what I want my readers to take away from all of this. It is an admittance by the IMF that they plan economic crashes to achieve political policies that are based on providing less support for the middle class and poor and more tax breaks for the wealthy. Sort of sounds like what the west did after the last big crash, they gave tax breaks to the wealthy and increased taxes on everyone else while reducing government benefits and most people thought these things were accidents. Nothing in the global economy is ever an accident.

The Death of the Republican Party and Who is to Blame - It Isn't Trump

The media and the establishment are blaming Trump, gay marriage and abortion for the death of the Republican party, it is a cynical lie, a denial of the truth. Trump is not killing the Republican party, if he was not in the race Cruz would have 70%+ of the vote, Trumps supporters are not going to suddenly switch to Kasich if Trump fails and Cruz's supporters will not support Kasich.  They both represent the middle class and working class, not the moneyed donors. People are not voting for Trump because he is not anti-gay, he is not running as an evangelical; but, Cruz is, yet he is still running against the establishment. This election for Republicans IS about changing the policies that only benefit the establishment and not working Americans.

Rubio and Kasich were the last of the establishment guys. Cruz is anti-establishment and his voters are to. If it comes down to a brokered election, Cruz's delegates will go for Trump. If the convention is brokered, it still goes to Trump. Cruz cannot effectively tell his people to support the establishment candidate, they will ignore him. There is no convention where Trump or Cruz's delegates vote for either Bush, Rubio or Romney. It will not happen.

The party establishment could regain control, it is very simple, they only need to put the needs and wishes of the majority of Republicans (workers and small business) above the wishes of the cleptokratic donors who only want tax breaks for themselves and to outsource jobs.

JP Morgan is up to something and my stats

I will discuss my stats first. I am seeing a spike in readership for the most recent posts. I have checked the search terms that led them here and they do not match the posts that I have made recently. I believe some people are being redirected here by a browser program that hijacks your searches. For those who come here by accident, sorry, I have nothing to do with it. The last time this happened it was all because of one post and I deleted it as it was a meaningless one anyways.

NY Times - Break Up the Bank? It’s Not for You to Ask. Firstly I am going to talk about the article and then I will discuss why our corporations are no longer capitalistic or honest. The article is about how some shareholder in JP Morgan wants to have a vote on whether or not the company should be split along the lines required by the old Glass Steagle law which required commercial banks to be separated from investment banks. The article humorously (in my opinion) continues to insist that "JP Morgan" doesn't want to separate the activities and may not have to.

The corporation is one of the greatest things ever invented and is responsible for all the really great projects of the last 100 plus years. Two guys would want to share resources and make a partnership and would have to agree on what they would do in business and share in the return. You would hire your partners eldest son because he could end up your partner when his father died. As countries advanced they found that really large projects required large companies with lots of owners. Voting became more and more difficult and shares were given or sold to people outside of the community, that was the beginning of the real stock market. The owners began to give their voting rights to other owners who had the time to go to the elections and that they trusted. That is a proxy vote and that is what the article is about.

Now, what went wrong with proxy voting? Pretty simple, the people buying the stock became less and less interested in the companies and began to only focus on the return. They began pressuring the managers that they had hired to do anything they had to to turn a profit, that let in corrupt managers. Things got worse, when American companies stopped seeing as large a profit as they began to have to compete with low wage foreign companies, the stockholders began to only care about the stock valuation and that is when companies began getting split up just to be sold off. The people that actually cared about the business voted to give more and more power to the managers and gave up the right to vote on more and more control of the actual business. The response by shareholders who did not care about the underlying business was to pay CEOs and managers based on the increase in stock value. That was the final nail, now business owners no longer had a say in how the company is run and the managers get paid better if they increase the stock value regardless of how they do it, which led them to outsource and split up the company in ways that hurt the long term viability of the business but increased the immediate stock valuation.

I know there is a lot involved in that; but, I tried to keep it to the basics and in fact, the detail is not as important right now. The bigger issue has to do with JP Morgan itself. JP Morgan may be insolvent and fail. Over the past 6 months they have announced that they are getting rid of their commodities division (which has been very profitable), are laying off thousands of people although their profits are up, has had a number of suicides amongst it's highest levels and is being investigated for fixing the commodities and other markets. We could add to this the fact that in the last couple of years they have had to pay over $20 billion dollars in fines for corruption and fixing markets. There is one guy alone that lost the company over $5 billion, he was known as the London Whale and was one of their traders who did bad things.

Lets just say that it is possible that JP Morgan is preparing for when the bond markets fail and their bets get called and they go bankrupt, just like Lehman Brothers did. The leader, CEO, of JP Morgan is Jamie Dimon and he has recently left the head bank and become head of the companies "living will", that means that if the company went bankrupt, he would be paid to break up the company and split one part holding all the debt and another part holding all the assets. Bloomberg - JPMorgan’s Dimon Said to Relinquish Chairman Title at Bank Unit.

This all brings us back to the beginning or such. If the managers of JP Morgan believe the company will go bankrupt and they will be removed then why would they want it to split it's investment banks from it's commercial banking now. When the living will is activated they will be able to decide who gets the assets and who gets the returns without having to listen to the investors, you know, the real owners. The corporation is one of the greatest things ever created by man and has allowed us to advance even more than fire; but, the problem is how modern corporations ceased working for it's owners and was put under the control of managers who no longer reported to them.
