On December 11, 2014, the US House passed a bill repealing the Dodd-Frank requirement that risky derivatives be pushed into big-bank subsidiaries, leaving our deposits and pensions exposed to massive derivatives losses. The bill was vigorously challenged by Senator Elizabeth Warren; but the tide turned when Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorganChase, stepped into the ring. Perhaps what prompted his intervention was the unanticipated $40 drop in the price of oil. As financial blogger Michael Snyder points out, that drop could trigger a derivatives payout that could bankrupt the biggest banks. And if the G20’s new “bail-in” rules are formalized, depositors and pensioners could be on the hook.   Continue reading “The Global Bankers’ Coup Coming to US with Bail-In Bill”

Matt Drudge of the influential Drudge Report news aggregation site expressed discontent over a federal spending bill that passed with votes from both Republicans and Democrats in the House.

The $1.1 trillion spending bill that runs through September 2015 is now up for a vote in the Democratically-led Senate. Many conservatives, including Drudge, are upset that the bill funds both Obamacare and President Obama’s immigration executive orders.   Continue reading “Matt Drudge says spending bill passed because NSA has ‘dirt’ on John Boehner”

Students at one northern California high school are learning more than just the birds and the bees.

Along with local area groups, some parents are irate that their children’s sex ed class at Acalanes High School in Lafayette is being taught by employees of Planned Parenthood without their prior knowledge. They are also fuming over the methods and materials being used, including a checklist that asks students if they are “ready for sex” and another worksheet that describes how to give and obtain consent, as well as a diagram that uses a “genderbread” person for lessons in gender identity.   Continue reading “Parents angry after school tells 13-year-olds they can have sex, choose gender”

Joseph Kennedy had befriended McCarthy because he found him to be a likable fellow Irish-Catholic who had all the right ideas on the domestic communist menace. These warm feelings were quickly transferred to the entire Kennedy family. JFK liked the fact that McCarthy went after the “elites” in the State Department whom JFK regarded with contempt. ⁽¹³⁾ Even before McCarthy made accusations against the State Department of subversion, JFK had already aligned himself with the militant anti-communists who blamed the Truman State Department for the “loss” of China. So JFK declared on the House floor in January 1949.   Continue reading “The Kennedys and McCarthyism”

It comes as no surprise that the same ISIS crazies currently relieving Syria of its state-owned oil reserves to help crash global crude markets for the Illuminati, are also welcomed in the Rothschild creation known as Israel for medical treatment.

It also came as no surprise to students of Middle East history when on February 12, 2012 al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri called for the ouster of Syria’s “pernicious, cancerous regime,”. Progressive Syria has been targeted by al Qaeda in the past, and is currently under attack by Islamists from the CIA/Mossad-trained Free Syrian Army.   Continue reading “Zionists Use ISIS To Attack Syria”

The government funding bill that narrowly passed the House of Representatives on Thursday has been widely criticized, including from within Congress, as a give-away to Wall Street. However, its 1,600 pages raise numerous other red flags for activists and analysts, including a bloated military budget and what journalist Julia Hartecalls “a long-term blank check for ‘war’ spending.”

The bill approves $554 billion overall in Pentagon spending—in keeping with the trajectory of a country that spends more on the military than the next 11 countries combined. As Dave Gilson points out in Mother Jones, this sum means that total Pentagon funding during 2015 is “close to what it got during the height of the Iraq War” and “close to its highest level since World War II.”   Continue reading “Buried Within Omnibus Bill, a ‘Long-Term Blank Check for War Spending’”

In October of this year, Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon came to Washington to visit with his counterpart,  U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel. 

He asked for visits with other U.S. leaders, including Vice President Joe Biden.  The White House was not inclined to meet his requests.

The U.S. and Israel media were quick to dub this a major “snub” related to recent Israeli verbal attacks on President Obama.   Continue reading “U.S. Arms Deal Will Increase Israel’s Kill Power”

Judge Richard Posner is probably one of the most well-known and quoted appellate judges around. He’s an excellent writer as well, and I enjoy many of his books and his rulings, though when he gets things wrong, he seems to get them so very, very wrong. When he’s on, he’s great. For example, his recent attack on copyright trolling and defending the public domain was great. He’s also been good on patents. But… on surveillance he seems all too eager to side with the government.    Continue reading “Judge Posner Says NSA Should Be Able To Get Everything & That Privacy Is Overrated”
