LOADING BULLETS: Deep State Bankers ON
THE HOOK!

You can't cheat forever. The only way to achieve such lucrative asset price appreciation – while the hard stats are only creeping up – is by issuing cheap debt, and funneling it to the bankers and their friends first. This allows asset inflation to enrich the equity holders, while suppressing the middle-class with stagnant wages and tax increases.
Outsourcing without regard to negative social consequences has allowed multinational corporations to become unbelievably profitable; they take advantage of tax havens around the world to stash their huge cash hoards, instead of repatriating their boosted capital and using it to employ millions of people and raise their respective wages.
The rubber meets the road eventually; Europe's economic activity has come to a screeching halt. There simply comes a point when issuing new debt no longer stimulates the economy.
Take a look: In the context of profitability and corporate leadership, U.S. corporations remain a beacon of light to the rest of the globe, the way I see it. However, a look at the big picture shows that our collective economy is officially shrinking.
The historic indicators that have reliably forecasted slowdowns are all flashing red. For example, the Baltic Dry Index fell to its lowest level in almost three years this week and is now down 44% year-over-year. Another measure of global trade volumes fell by 1.3%, its biggest slide since mid-2015. From our current starting point of extremely low interest rates for all central banks, there's absolutely nothing that policy-makers can do to stave off the next downturn. It would take a miracle to experience an orderly decline and a moderate recession.
When the shit hits the fan this time around, the general population will want blood. They'll seek indictments and will not settle for less than jail time for those who take the fall. In Europe, there's a centuries-long tradition of not granting mercy to those who have plundered and conspired against the population.
The working class has been promised that monetary policy will help them prosper.
It has been a decade since the Great Recession and the only things that have risen without fail are the stock market and the real estate markets. That is NOT a coincidence. It's a premeditated plan that uses the levers of central banking. The top 10% of the population owns 90% of the stock market holdings in our society.
As investors, we are, above all, concerned with preserving capital and with hedging against the upcoming crisis. But we also want to prosper, as recession-proof industries become more strategic for investors. That's exactly what I'm focused on at present and we'll be publishing critical reports on this subject throughout February. The Deep Hurt: Lessons From American Coups. February 13, 2019 "Information Clearing House" - As the world watches aghast at another US and allies’ attempt to engineer a coup in Venezuela, I would like to offer a few insights from Stephen Kinzer’ provocative chapter, “The deep hurt,” (pp. 227-250) in his book, The True Flag: Theodore Roosevelt, Mark Twain, and the Birth of the American Empire (2017). This remarkable text carries some hope and lessons for all of us. It tells the story of the great conflict around the turn of 20thcentury about the role that the US might play in either dominating the world or building a cosmopolitan democracy where all people feel secure that they reside in one country, the earth. Indeed, Kinzer states: “Anti-imperialists decisively influenced American history by helping to ensure that the first burst of American annexation would be the last” (p. 228).
Even swash-buckling Teddy Roosevelt was influenced, losing his zest for the idea of conquest. When he charged into the White House he held two views simultaneously, intervene to help other people, without oppressing them. Kinzer thinks that this dichotomy “torments our national psyche” (p. 229). In the early parts of the book Kinzer sets out the anti-imperialist (Mark Twain) and pro-imperialist visions (Henry Cabot Lodge). These speeches are worth gathering round for reflection.
During the following hundred years much of what the anti-imperialists predicted has come to pass. The United States has become an “actively interventionist power. It has projected military or covert power into dozens of countries on every continent except Antarctica”(ibid.). George Frisbie Hoar was right, Kinzer points out, when he “warned that intervening in other lands would turn the United States into a ‘vulgar, commonplace empire founded upon physical force”” (ibid.).
Anti-imperialists also
predicted that an “aggressive foreign policy would have pernicious effects at
home” (ibid.). Military budgets have soared to heights unimaginable in the days
of fervent expansionism in the 1898 war with the Philippines. The armaments
industries wield extraordinary clout. The wealth-soaked elites dominate
politics. The invasion and overthrowing of distant regimes resides in the hands
of a few decision-makers. And militaristic values and rituals saturate American
life and expunge peaceful ones.
To be sure, American
intervention brought some material blessings (good schools and orderly systems
of justice, etc) and rising American power was perceived as “good for
everyone simply because it means strengthening the world’s most beneficent nation”
(p. 230). The expansionists of 1898 believed that America was “inherently
benevolent,” and subject nations would rally around the May pole in celebratory
dance. “The opposite happened….Carl Schurz was right when he warned that
dominating foreigners would ultimately force Americans to ‘shoot them down
because they stand up for their independence’” (p. 231).
Kinzer states that: “In
the face of profound new challenges, Americans are once again debating the role
of the United States in the world. Should it intervene violently in other
countries? This remains what Senator William V. Allen called it in 1899: ‘The
greatest question that has ever been presented to the American people’” (p.
231). American culture carries a current of anti-imperialism and commitment to an
international legal order. They played a big role in the establishment of the
UN and nurturing global governance. They remain the world’s only superpower
with enormous capacity to move towards building the cosmopolitan world order.
What is evident now in this dark moment of history is that the world as it is,
is not the way it has to be.
It is difficult, I
think, for the United States with its inordinate military might and present
delusionary self-understanding to wrench itself free from wanting to intervene
for political and economic reasons. Many in the post-WW I world had placed
their bet for a better world on the Presbyterian professor Woodrow Wilson.
Famously, Wilson triggered immense hopefulness to the disenfranchised in the
colonies of European powers. He preached that they should “choose the
sovereignty under which the shall live” (p. 232). In office, American troops
were dispatched to intervene in Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Mexico and
Russia….Like his predecessors—and successors—Wilson insisted that he was doing
it for the good of the target countries. Americans would leave them alone, he
promised, as soon as they learned ‘to elect good men’” (ibid.). Today scholars
speak of the “shattered peace” of the post-WW I world. Was the desire to begin
building, slowly, carefully, a cosmopolitan world order, as Jan Smuts thought,
an “impossible dream”?
Kinzer observes that
“this most compassionate of presidents not only invaded countries that defied
the United States, but studiously ignored appeals from colonized people outside
Europe, notably in Egypt, India, Korea, and Indochina. His hypocrisy set the
stage for generations of war and upheaval” (ibid.). Margaret MacMillan’s lively
and densely detailed book, Paris 1919 (2001), provides
the stories for these outcast colonized countries. Today, the US has intervened
one more time. The difference now may well be that there is little pretence
that the US is engaging in the bully politics of “might is right.” They don’t
care two hoots about what the world thinks. They do not give a damn about the
self-determination of all countries and peoples. This invasion is stripped of
any moral or legal justification. The US has decided to declare the Speaker of
the House, Juan Guaido, president. This is unheard of! And Canada has forsaken
the best of its liberal and social democratic traditions of adherence to rule
of law to hitch its caboose to the US’s rampaging imperialist train.
There are several
lessons that Kinzer draws from American history of intervention that our worth
careful reflection.
1) American imperialists
(and many Americans) truly believe that they are superior and that the world
would become a better place if nations submitted to their leadership. The
United States would be better off, Kinzer says, if it became a learning nation
and not a teaching one.
2) Early promoters of
American intervention were zealous patriots. They proclaimed love of country
and loyalty to the flag. Yet they could not imagine that people from non-white
countries might feel just as patriotic. Love of country was a mark of
civilization. Lesser peoples, therefore, couldn’t grasp it.
3) Americans have been
said to be ignorant about the world. They are, says Kinzer, but so are other
peoples. The difference is that American leaders, puffed with a sense of
mission, acted on ignorance. American leaders see little reason to bother
learning about the nations whose affairs they intrude.
4) Violent intervention
in other countries always produces unintended consequences. Cuba was turned into
a protectorate in 1901. A fine idea? It led ultimately to a bitter
anti-American regime. Intervention in the Philippines sparked waves of
nationalism across East Asia that contributed to the Communist revolution in
China in 1949. Later American interventions also had terrible results planners
never anticipated. From Iran and Guatemala to Iraq and Afghanistan,
intervention has devastated societies and produced violent anti-American
passion.
5) Generations of
American foreign policy makers have made decisions on three assumptions: the US
is the indispensable nation that must lead the world; this leadership requires
toughness; and toughness is best demonstrated by the threat or use of force.
Thus: America is inherently righteous; its influence on rest of world always
benign.
6) Most American
interventions are not soberly conceived, with realistic goals and clear exit
strategies. But violent invasions always leave so-called “collateral damage”:
families killed, destroyed towns, ruined lives, damaged land.
7) The argument that the
United States intervenes to defend “freedom” rarely matches facts on the
ground. Many (most?) interventions prop up predatory regimes. The goal is
simply to increase American power rather than to liberate the suffering.
8) Foreign intervention
has weakened the moral authority that was once the foundation of America’s
political identity. Today many people around the world see it as a bully,
recklessly invading foreign lands. The current invasion of Venezuela is such an
example. The name “United States” is associated with bombing, invasion,
occupation, night raids, covert action, torture, kidnapping, and secret
prisons. Who wants to be saved by America? John Bolton recently threatened
Maduro with prison in Guantanamo if he doesn’t get the hell out of Venezuela.
9) Nations lose their
virtue when they repeatedly attack other nations. That loss, as Washington
predicted, has cost the United States its felicity. Kinzer says that the US can
regain it only by understanding its own national interests more clearly. He
thinks it is late for the United States to change its course in the world—but
not too late.
Federal
Reserve Bank Colludes with Deep State to Crash Stock Market
The FED Is the Real Enemy
of the American People
It’s either We the People or the
Federal Reserve;
there’s no room for both in a free nation.
How many times has it been
said … … …
That Deep
State is the enemy of the people.
That the Mainstream
Media is the enemy of the people.
That the C.I.A. is
the enemy of the people.
That the FBI is
the enemy of the people.
The NSA is
the enemy of the people.
That the DOJ is
the enemy of the people.
That the Democrats and RINOs are the enemy of the people.
That most of the U.S.
Congress is the enemy of the people.
That the whole SES (Senior
Executive Service) is the enemy of the people.
Virtually the entire Legal
Class (i.e. BAR attorneys) is the enemy of the people.
Who
can argue with any of these self-evident statements?
Each one is entirely true as
the election of Donald Trump has revealed.
In fact, Trump tweets alone
have exposed the whole bloody system for what it truly is:
THE ENEMY OF
THE PEOPLE.
However
…
And it’s a HUGE however, mind
you!
It’s the FED, and
especially the Central Banks worldwide, that are the REAL enemy of the people.
In fact, the whole world is
now witnessing just how dangerous and deadly, reckless and feckless the Federal
Reserve Bank (FED) can be.
Only the initiated really
understand that the FED has always been this dangerous throughout its entire
existence … … … as we all watch FED Chairman Jerome Powell intentionally
trigger a stock market crash in real-time.
As a matter of historical fact, every stock market crash and
economic depression has been caused directly by the actions (and inactions) of
the central banks … and before central banks by the large private banks that
constituted the International Banking Cartel.
The many bankster institutions that make up the
current Rothschild Crime Syndicate are
only the latest incarnation of a draconian system of currency control and
manipulation that goes back over 5000 years. Before the Rothschild clan
there was the Black Nobility of
Northern Italy in the late 1200s. And way before them there was the Babylonian Brotherhood of
the ancient Middle East with many other bankster entities in between.
2018:
The Year the FED Exposed Itself
True to form, President Trump
has once again taken to Twitter to expose the single biggest scam in world
history—the utterly fake Federal Reserve System.
Truly, it doesn’t get any bigger than the Central Banking Racket. It also doesn’t get
any more perilous since it is these international banksters who have
purposefully engineered every single war in modern history.
That’s just what these perennial perps do: they look for new
ways of wealth creation and it just so happens that war is a really great
business. The globalists also thrive on the disaster capitalism that
results after the wars. They also take advantage of war opportunities to
put into practice their primary MO — Ordo ab chao — with which to
fabricate new nations and societies.
This is why there is such a
chorus of disagreement with Trump’s troop pull-out from Syria and
Afghanistan. The banksters need and want war to fuel their artificially
propped up perpetual war economy the world over.
This is also why Powell has
no reservations about triggering a full-blown stock market crash — IN BROAD
DAYLIGHT — this Christmas. Nowadays the banksters don’t even care that
the American people see their premeditated collapse of the entire Global
Economic & Financial System.
That’s right: Powell is
completely unconcerned that everyone knows he is carrying out the devastation
of the various markets and national economies worldwide. The FED has
always exercised this much power and influence but surreptitiously implemented
their secret agendas of monetary destruction under the radar…way under.
Not so anymore as people
everywhere watch Powell insidiously raise the interest rate at a time of
extreme instability and increasing insecurity, great risks and growing
uncertainty, as well as general fear, apprehension and anxiety permeating the
global investment community. What a ‘perfect time’ to jack up the FED
interest rate!
Why, pray tell, would the FED
Chair make such a stupid move? Actually a series of stupid moves
throughout 2018.
Because he’s been told to by his Deep State handlers who have been coerced by
their International Banking Cartel masters,
that’s why.
Powell is Deep State’s inside man to execute the
nuclear option—aka an engineered stock market crash!
As FED Chairman, Powell,
himself, has no real power… it’s all perceived power. In fact the POTUS
can fire him in a heartbeat if he feels the necessity to do so.
Back
to the list above
However, it’s the extensive list posted above, each culprit of
which is clearly an “enemy
of the people”, which must be reconsidered in light of
this critical analysis.
You see, each and every one
of those exceedingly dangerous institutions runs on money. With regular
funding, they can carry out their nefarious deeds with impunity and then cover
them up for decades. And so they have… at the request of the banksters.
As the notorious and
prototypical “enemy of the people” Mayer Amshel Rothschild once said:
December
2018: The Month of HUGE Happenings
Who can deny that this December has seen a blitz of major events
and radioactive revelations? The George H.W. Bush funeral alone has got
people talking like never before. See Something
quite HUGE is about to go down: Martial Law, Military Tribunals or Both?
Of course, before that unparalleled psyop, the American people
were provided with indisputable evidence of a statewide black operation
conducted in California. It’s all spelled out at SMOKING GUN: Hard Evidence Shows Camp Fire Was Manmade, Genocide and
Mass Destruction of Paradise Carefully Planned.
Then the nation was treated to a rapid series of Trump tweets
and Deep State-busting
initiatives that the Righthas
correctly perceived as a Christmas present. Each of these unprecedented
moves and maneuvers was designed for the upcoming BIG EVENT. See: Trump’s
been on a very serious mission preparing for the real battlefield after January
1, 2019
Even the well-timed government shutdown will have many
unintended benefits for We
the People. Not only is this brilliant political move revealing the
Democrats and RINOs as stone-cold traitors to the American Republic, it’s
giving the Trump administration the legitimate pretext to jumpstart the
military tribunals for mass treason. The FED chairman and his fellow
governors ought to be the first on the docket.
GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN: Good! Keep it shut down so that We the People …
… can see how worthless, wasteful and woeful it is.
KEY POINT: The
Federal Reserve Bank is not federal, it’s supranational. There’s no
reserve; it’s actually in deep debt. The FED is really not even a bank;
it’s a printing press that makes Federal Reserve Notes, which are debt
instruments not assets with real value, out of thin air.
Conclusion
THEIR FINAL
SOLUTION:
Market Crash, Dollar
Collapse & World War 3
Now the reader understands
why the FED is truly the enemy of the people.
We are all watching it wreck
and ruin the U.S. economy in real time and with purposeful design.
Therefore, Trump’s only alternative is to: Fire
Powell Now … BEFORE HE CRASHES THE MARKETS!
And, to do so before a market crash sets up a cataclysmic domino effect that
has been pre-planned by the New
World Order globalist cabal for decades.
Special Note: It’s true that the stock market is nothing but a rich man’s
casino. It’s actually a global gambling casino where the house always
wins and the bettor always loses…even when they think they won. In this
way the New York Stock Exchange, as well as all the other exchanges, serve to
transfer massive amounts of wealth from the small investors to the moneyed
class. The degree of insider trading alone that’s done by the power elite
is staggering as it translates into trillions of dollars of profits every
year. Truly, the world will be a much better place when the markets
collapse, once and for all. At the end of the day, it will be the 4 “Ds”
that take down the system for
good as explained in this prescient piece: The ‘FOUR
HORSEMEN’ Herald the Death Knell of Global Economic & Financial SystemState

DISCLAIMER: “… It
is the Federal Reserve System, and its fatally flawed practice of debt-driven,
fractional reserve banking that is the object of our scorn and derision.
Likewise, it is the Federal Reserve Bank (FED) that deserves our condemnation
and searing criticism. Why? Because the FED is not legitimate. It is not a
properly constituted or correctly legislated organ of government, and it’s
actually a privately owned consortium of banking agents whose ownership is more
foreign than domestic. The FED is legally unfit to conduct business on behalf
of the American people since, as a private entity, it lacks the congressional oversight
necessary when appropriated funds have been allocated by the legislative branch
of government. The printing presses of the FED produce notes – as in promissory
notes – which are nothing but instruments of indebtedness for all who possess
them. Not too unlike credit cards, actually. Therefore, the money that it
prints is counterfeit. Is it surprising that an international, privately owned
crime syndicate, which issues fake money, would be the biggest player in the
worldwide funny money monopoly game that is bringing the entire world of
commerce, finance and business to a virtual standstill? We are talking about
the greatest ongoing financial crisis in recorded history. And the FED is
institutional PUBLIC ENEMY #1 responsible for this multi-decade crime spree.“
