Quote For The Day

That’s the real issue this time,” he said. “Beating Nixon. It’s hard to even guess how much damage those bastards will do if they get in for another four years.”

The argument was familiar, I had even made it myself, here and there, but I was beginning to sense something very depressing about it. How many more of these goddamn elections are we going to have to write off as lame, but “regrettably necessary” holding actions? And how many more of these stinking double-downer sideshows will we have to go through before we can get ourselves straight enough to put together some kind of national election that will give me and the at least 20 million people I tend to agree with a chance to vote for something, instead of always being faced with that old familiar choice between the lesser of two evils?

Now with another one of these big bogus showdowns looming down on us, I can already pick up the stench of another bummer. I understand, along with a lot of other people, that the big thing this year is Beating Nixon. But that was also the big thing, as I recall, twelve years ago in 1960 – and as far as I can tell, we’ve gone from bad to worse to rotten since then, and the outlook is for more of the same.

India And Pakistan Going To War ???

India carried out multiple “surgical” military strikes inside Pakistan over a five-hour period Wednesday night, bringing South Asia perilously close to an all-out war with potentially catastrophic consequences.

Not only would a war between India and Pakistan be the first-ever war between nuclear-armed states; it could rapidly draw in the United States and China on opposed sides.

In anticipation of a Pakistani counterstrike (or so as to provide cover for Indian war preparations), Indian authorities on Thursday ordered the evacuation of all those living within 10 kilometers of the Pakistani border in the Indian states of Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir.

Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif denounced Wednesday’s night attack as “unprovoked and naked” Indian “aggression” and called an emergency meeting of his cabinet for today to discuss Islamabad’s response.

India says it attacked seven “terrorist launching pads” on the Pakistani side of the Line of Control that separates Indian- and Pakistani-held Kashmir; that its forces penetrated up to 3 kilometers inside Pakistani territory; and that they inflicted “significant casualties” on “terrorists and those trying to shield them.”

Is there anywhere in the world where peace might break out soon? Doesn't look like it.

A nuclear exchange between these two would be a very bad thing. I could envisage it opening the floodgates for a much larger nuclear war.

Obama ad-Dajjal, it looks like you screwed this one up too.

Let's Move To Iceland

A party that hangs a skull-and-crossbones flag at its HQ, and promises to clean up corruption, grant asylum to Edward Snowden and accept the bitcoin virtual currency, could be on course to form the next Icelandic government.

The Pirate Party has found a formula that has eluded many anti-establishment groups across Europe. It has tempered polarizing policies like looser copyright enforcement rules and drug decriminalization with pledges of economic stability that have won confidence among voters.

This has allowed it to ride a wave of public anger at perceived corruption among the political elite - the biggest election issue in a country where a 2008 banking collapse hit thousands of savers and government figures have been mired in an offshore tax furor following the Panama Papers leaks.

If the Pirates emerge as the biggest party in an Oct. 29 parliamentary election - as opinion polls suggest - they will deliver another defeat to Europe's mainstream politicians.

The rise to power of a party which started out less than four years ago as a protest movement against global copyright laws, and whose election campaign is partly crowdfunded, would create shockwaves felt far beyond this island of 336,000 people on the edge of the Arctic Circle.

A country which put their bankgangsters in jail and which is fighting globalism can't be all that bad.

Does Bombing Work ???

Despite dropping 54,611 bombs and missiles in 15,362 airstrikes across the Middle East, the U.S.-backed coalition seems no closer to stamping out terrorism than when it began.

That figure comes from Airwars, a nonprofit that keeps track of the aerial campaign against Daesh (an Arabic acronym for the terrorist group commonly known in the West as ISIS or ISIL) and other groups in Iraq, Syria and Libya.

Since the air war on Daesh began on Aug. 8, 2014, the U.S.-backed coalition has carried out 9,996 airstrikes in Iraq and 5,366 airstrikes in Syria.

Does bombing work? Apparently not, if its goal is to defeat an enemy:

• Bombing alone did not defeat Germany,
• Bombing did not defeat Vietnam, and
• Bombing is not defeating "terrorism".

What the bombing of Iraq and Syria is accomplishing is the utter destruction of those two former nation states.

But why, other than paving the way for Greater Israel, would anyone want to do that?

Cruising While The World Burns

As Truthout reported on September 12, the 820-foot long Crystal Serenity cruise ship set sail in late August from Seward, Alaska en route to New York, via the Arctic.

The ship has 13 decks, 535 staterooms, multiple swimming pools, a golf driving range, putting green, casino, spa, fitness center, hair salon, movie theater, and of course, 24-hour room service.

Carrying upwards of 1,700 passengers and crew, cruise prices started at $22,000 per person. For those willing to fork over more, helicopter rides and excursions onto the melting Greenland Ice Sheet were available for an additional fee.

Now, the same company is already selling rooms for next summer's cruise.

According to Crystal Cruises' website, the 32-day cruise next year will run from August 15 to September 16, and promises "unprecedented adventures" and "unsurpassed luxury."

"Follow in the footsteps of intrepid explorers as you sail through unparalleled landscapes of grand glaciers, stunning fjords, and rare wildlife sightings as you learn the Arctic culture and its fascinating people," it adds.

It must be nice to be rich. No matter what happens, they are going to enjoy life. Only the poor are going to suffer from climate change.

Which begs the question - "why the hell should the rich care about global warming if it doesn't really bother them"?

Short answer - every "crisis", real or imaginary, is an opportunity for them to make more money and to exert a greater level of control over the great unwashed.

Is Russia An Outlaw State ???

Amid mounting public threats that the US is preparing an escalation of its military intervention in Syria, the New York Times Thursday published a lead editorial branding Russia as an “outlaw state.”

This ratcheting up of rhetoric that has grown increasingly hysterical in regard to Russia is a response to the debacle suffered by US imperialism in its over five-year-long proxy war for regime change in Syria. Syrian government forces, backed by Russian air power, appear to be on the brink of retaking all of the eastern portion of Aleppo, the last major bastion of the US-backed “rebels,” composed principally of Al Qaeda-affiliated Islamist militias.

Secretary of State John Kerry issued an ultimatum to his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov Wednesday: either Russia grounds both its own and the Syrian government’s warplanes, or Washington will break off all negotiations with Moscow on Syria.

USA is the outlaw state. Russia is the lawful state.

We are mired in our own hubris and are allowing ourselves to be needlessly dragged into a major war which can and will benefit no one except Israel.

Donald Vs.Bill

Am I missing something here?

But for some other reason, it's no big deal that Bill Clinton is an accused serial sexual predator and rapist.

I'm not aware that Trump ever assaulted or raped anyone, are you?

But according to his accusers Bill Clinton has, and his wife has both enabled his crimes and covered them up.

Just like her friends and lovers are helping to cover up her crimes.

This whole election cycle is one bizarre sick joke after another.

The first presidential debate was held and Hillary Clinton was proclaimed the winner by the media.  Indeed Clinton was able to turn in a strong debate performance, but did she do so fairly?  Multiple reports and leaked information from inside the Clinton camp claim that the Clinton campaign was given the entire set of debate questions an entire week before the actual debate.

Why Is MSM Ignoring Pipeline Protests ???

The media blackout of opposition to the Dakota Access Pipeline continues as widening protests, which have now blocked pipeline construction in Iowa, go unreported by the national corporate media.

The “Mississippi Stand” water protector encampment in Sandusky, Iowa, successfully blocked Dakota Access Pipeline construction as of Saturday, September 24th. The protests are taking place where the pipeline is planned to cross the Mississippi River.

Water protectors attached themselves to construction equipment in acts of civil disobedience until they were eventually arrested - but police failed to corral them before they halted the pipeline’s construction. Law enforcement arrested a total of 12 people on Saturday at the Mississippi Stand site, according to independent media outlet Unicorn Riot. At least 44 people have been arrested at the Iowa protest site in previous weeks.

Why Are We Giving Up Control Of Internet ???

On Wednesday’s “Sean Hannity Show,” FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai (R) stated that the plan to “essentially give up the US oversight role…of the Internet” to ICANN is something that should worry anyone who cherishes “free expression, and free speech rights generally,” and could potentially cede oversight of the Internet to “foreign governments who might not share our values.” He further stated that such a move is “irreversible.”

Pai said, “This proposal is to essentially give up the US oversight role that it’s had for the last 20 years, basically for the entire commercial lifespan of the Internet to a company called ICANN, which is an international organization, which includes a number of foreign countries. And, it’s an unprecedented move, and one that, as Mr. DeMint pointed out, is irreversible. Once we give up this oversight role, we can’t get it back.”

Why Hillary Is DISQUALIFIED From Holding Office

Although this particular constitutional amendment was passed after the US Civil War, it is still in effect:

US Constitution 14th Amendment
3: No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

Hillary has taken the oath more than once (as Senator and as Secretary of State).

Hillary has given aid and comfort to terrorist groups and others who appear to be enemies of the US Constitution, including ISIS, the United Nations, and George Soros.

She therefore is disqualified from holding ANY office, including that of President.

All we have to do to stop her is to FOLLOW OUR CONSTITUTION.

Globalism Is Anti-Christ And Demonic

Prominent theologians and scholars are saying this week that while globalism may be a buzzword this election season, too few understand the demonic forces driving this ideology.

As The New York Times reported Monday, until relatively recently it was rare to hear people referred to as "globalists" but the label is more common now. And while many globalists claim to have the interests of the entire world at heart, the irony is that they have become a tribe of sorts; and they are a wealthy, elite, and powerful tribe for whom national borders are an impediment to their agenda.

While many definitions for globalism exist, a wide chasm separates 1) necessary global exchanges in an increasingly interconnected world, like trade, legal immigration, and the cooperation and sharing of ideas across borders, and 2) globalism as a secular humanistic religion of sorts that envisons a one-world government.

For the second definition of globalism, such views are antithetical to a Christian worldview, according to some, even as the Church itself is global and the Kingdom of God is not constrained by national borders.

"A major objection to globalism from a spiritual and biblical point of view is that many of the globalists are pushing for a global value system," said Wallace Henley, senior associate pastor of 2nd Baptist Church in Houston, Texas in a Tuesday phone interview with The Christian Post.

A vote for Hillary is a vote for globalism ... AND an affirmation that you support the coming of the Antichrist.

US Nuclear Power Plant For Sale - CHEAP

[The unfinished] Bellefonte [nuclear power plant] has never burned an ounce of nuclear fuel or delivered a watt of power. The plant employs a mere 50 people. Dust covers the piping. Turkey vultures have perched on the 480-foot pale-gray cooling towers. 

Now, after more than $5 billion in investments and 40 years of stops and starts, the plant’s owner is putting it up for sale - for a small fraction of the overall cost.

The Tennessee Valley Authority, the nation’s largest federal utility, is set to begin accepting bids for Bellefonte on Monday, with a minimum price tag of $36.4 million, according to the Associated Press.

Plant officials said demand for power in the region never rose to the level they anticipated when they broke ground on the project. As recently as 2011, TVA sought to restart work on one of the reactors, but by 2014, the utility was ready to abandon the project again. Experts said it could cost $8 billion to complete, the Chattanooga Times Free Press reported.

You can read the rest @
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/09/12/for-sale-5-billion-non-working-nuclear-power-plant-as-is/

So, TVA invested $5 billion but will let it go for $36.4 million? That is what the US government is best at - squandering money on huge failed projects, then selling them off for nothing. It reminds me of what the feds did with the supercarrier USS Forrestal, which was sold to a scrap company for one cent.

Jeez !!!

The sad fate of Bellefonte is glaring proof the US has no meaningful energy policy. Everyone wants to scrap all the coal plants, but no one wants to replace them with nuclear plants. No one has really even tried to deal with the huge amount of nuclear waste which has been piling up, or with all the toxic fly ash generated by existing coal plants.

By the way, the lack of regional power demand in Alabama was caused by two factors:

• Originally, the TVA nuclear plants were going to sell electricity to other US government entities, mainly for the enrichment of uranium (for other power plants and for nuclear bombs). That market never materialized.
• Any excess power might have then been sold to industry, but the deindustrialization of the US (masterminded by the people who now support Hillary) ensured that didn't happen.

Bellefonte is a microcosm of the US economy in general - BIG investment, big plans, but little return. What the hell happened to us? (Hint: the answer is spelled g-l-o-b-a-l-i-z-a-t-i-o-n.)

I predict that if Bellefonte sells at all, it will be to a foreign company through a US shell corp set up just for that purpose (that's what happened to the Clinton NPP in Illinois). The only buyers who might be able to afford it outright (i.e., without US government loan guarantees) would be Russia and China, but since we're at war with both I bet they will pass on the deal.

Who Is The Bigger Bully - Trump Or Hillary ???

According to this essay, Trump is a "failed bully":

Hillary to her State Trooper bodyguards after one of them greeted her with "Good Morning." From the book "America Evita" by Christopher Anderson, p.90

(3)  "If you want to remain on this detail, get your fucking ass over here and grab those bags!" Hillary to a Secret Service Agent who was reluctant to carry her luggage because he wanted to keep his hands free in case of an incident. From the book "The First Partner" p. 25

(4) "Stay the fuck back, stay the fuck back away from me! Don't come within ten yards of me, or else! Just fucking do as I say, Okay!!?"  Hillary screaming at her Secret Service detail. From the book "Unlimited Access" by Clinton 's FBI Agent-in-Charge, Gary Aldridge, p.139

(5) "Where's the miserable cock sucker?" (otherwise known as "Bill  Clinton") Hillary shouting at a Secret Service officer. From the book "The Truth about Hillary" by Edward Klein, p. 5

(6) "You fucking idiot" Hillary to a State Trooper  who was driving her to an event. From the book "Crossfire" ~pg.  84

(7) "Put this on the ground! I left my sunglasses in the limo.  I need those fucking sunglasses!  We need to go back!”  Hillary to Marine One helicopter pilot to turn back while in route to Air Force One. From the book " Dereliction of Duty" p. 71-72

Drunken With The Blood Of The Saints

The Bible says this about the Mother of Harlots:

And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
And upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth.
And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

Revelation 17:1-6 KJV

Please watch this video of a woman who clearly is drunken with the blood of Muammar Gaddafi:

Partly as a result of this woman's lies, distortions, and evil actions and intentions, Christians are the most persecuted group in the world today:

http://www.charlotteobserver.com/living/religion/article86216792.html

I believe she is drunken not just with the blood of Gaddafi, but also with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. Many Christians have died because of her. Does she even care?

Do not wonder after her with great admiration.

US Elections Neither Free Nor Fair

Domestic and international experts rate the US elections as the worst among all Western democracies. According to Electoral Integrity Project, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden are at the top of the ranking, while the US scores 62.

The report gathers assessments from over 2,000 experts to evaluate the perceived integrity of all 180 national parliamentary and presidential contests held between July 1, 2012, and Dec. 31, 2015, in 139 countries. The 2014 US congressional elections rank even worse, 65th out of 180 worldwide.

UN Agenda 2030 = One World Government ???

In case Hillary and Donald did not address Agenda 2030 last night, here's the scoop in an essay by Daisy Luther:

We have all heard of Agenda 21, but the 2030 Agenda isn’t quite so familiar. Agenda 2030 emphasizes gender and racial equality, eradication of poverty, and the total abolition of violence and hate. It lays out that the future world is based entirely on these goals and that the only way to achieve these things is through sustainable development and control of climate change. Oh – and the planet will also be totally poverty free by 2030 as well.

Here are a few of the pertinent points:

• It actually came into effect in January 2016.
• Its full title is ‘Transforming Our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
• The  areas covered by the Agenda are people, planet, prosperity, peace, and partnership.
• The 17 goals and 169 targets of the Agenda seek to build on the Millennium Development Goals  and complete those that were not achieved.
• The ‘Declaration’ agreed upon at the United Nations meeting in New York has 53 points.
• Point 2 sets the tone: ‘On behalf of the peoples we serve, we have adopted a historic decision on a comprehensive, far-reaching and people-centred set of universal and transformative goals and targets. We commit ourselves to working tirelessly for the full implementation of this Agenda by 2030’. 
• Points 5, 18, 28, and particularly point 29 are particularly interesting. Now, in theory, it’s wonderful – rainbows and unicorns for everyone. It’s repetitive in the extreme, constantly pointing out the sanctity of sovereign nations and saying these issues apply TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON ON THE PLANET…

So, how can I turn the 2030 Agenda into the arrival of the one-world government?

Simple: it is entirely impossible to achieve what they have laid out without a one-world government, the New World Order we have heard so much about over the last few years.

This is what they are stating WILL be achieved by 2030 with all countries somehow miraculously retaining their own culture, resources, and economies:

• Total eradication of hunger across the planet.
• Total eradication of race inequality across the planet.
• Total eradication of poverty across the planet.
• Total eradication of gender inequality across the planet.
• Total eradication of war across the planet.
• Total eradication of Malaria and other mosquito-borne diseases across the planet.
• Total eradication of TB across the planet.
• A set standard of education for every child on the planet.
• Clean water and sanitation for every person on the planet.
• A decent job for every worker on the planet.
• Sustainable economic growth in every country on the planet.
• Sustainable agriculture across the planet.
• sustainable livestock production across the planet.
• A reduction in natural resource use in every country on the planet.
• A reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in every industrialized nation on the planet.
• A reduction in flood and drought events is susceptible locations around the world.

There are other odds and ends they have thrown in but the bottom line is that all of these things will be done by the year 2030.

It seems obvious that a President Hillary would be an enthusiastic supporter of this agenda. Trump not so much.

But if the UN, the global corporations, the oligarchs, the bankgangsters, AND the Vatican are behind it, you can bet your bippy it's going to happen.

So get ready to bend over and smile.

And NO, it will not make America great again.

Why Are Central Banks Dumping US Treasuries ???

They’ve long been one of the most reliable sources of demand for U.S. government debt.

But these days, foreign central banks have become yet another worry for investors in the world’s most important bond market.

Holders like China and Japan have culled their stakes in Treasuries for three consecutive quarters, the most sustained pullback on record, based on the Federal Reserve’s official custodial holdings. The decline has accelerated in the past three months, coinciding with the recent backup in U.S. bond yields.

I'm not an economist, but it seems to me this is not good for the US or for the petrodollar. Perhaps the run on treasuries is a reaction to the war on the petrodollar rather than a direct attack on it:

Whatever the case, I think we'll see a culmination in the 2017-2020 time frame. Good luck, whoever our next President is. Financial calamities will be your greatest challenges.

Was The Debate Unfair ???

Of course it was:

Republican Donald Trump was kept on the defensive at the first presidential debate, in several instances having to debate the highly anticipated event's moderator as well as his Democratic opponent.

Trump was challenged on his answers Monday night at Hofstra University in New York at least six times by NBC's Lester Holt, according to the Washington Examiner's count. Hillary Clinton, meanwhile was no follow-up questions for the 90-minute debate.

This is the way the MSM treated Obama ad-Dajjal, only throwing him cream puffs and never challenging his lies and distortions.

Do you want Obama in a dress to be your next President? I don't.

By the way, I did not watch the "debate" and I won't watch any future "debates". If you don't already know what Hillary and Trump are like, you're not going to discover it in this kind of forum.

Trump Rejects First Strike

After Hillary Clinton attacked Donald Trump’s rhetoric on nuclear issues as reckless and dangerous, Trump pledged not to be the first to introduce nuclear weapons into a conflict. “I would certainly not do first strike,” Trump said. “Once the nuclear alternative happens, it’s over.”

That may seem like common sense, but it’s actually a commitment that President Obama has been reluctant to make. The Pentagon argues that unless the U.S. is prepared to threaten a nuclear strike, it is less likely to deter Russian and Chinese aggression.

That alone almost makes him the better choice, unless you like breathing nuclear fallout.

Global Trade is part of an Imperial Agenda

In turn the TTIP, CETA, TISA and the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) are the building blocks of a global “imperial” trading structure. The NAFTA-Asia Pacific  Trading Block hinges upon the adoption of the controversial Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).

“Regulatory convergence” is the talking point of global trade negotiations. It has nothing to do with free trade. Quite the opposite: it requires conformity and similarity in the formulation of national rules and provisions, on behalf of powerful multinational conglomerates: regulatory convergence implies “removal of impediments” to trade and investment coupled with homogenous and “friendly” provisions (e.g. austerity measures, curtailment of social programs, the toning down of labor laws, corporate friendly environmental clauses and consumer protection laws, “national treatment” for foreign investors, no subsidies to farmers, etc.)

Needless to say, national sovereignty is seen by Washington as an impediment to “regulatory convergence”.

In spite of what Hillary says, we are going to get TPP, TTIP, TISA, etc. rammed down our collective throats. The result will be a "global-ready" economy complete with millions of new immigrants and desperate natives willing to work for next to nothing just to make ends meet.

Couple that with legions of trigger-happy police, and the result is a very ugly picture.

Or we could "make America great again", whatever that means.

We're screwed no matter what happens.

The Real Reason Oil Companies Are Going Bankrupt

The real reason energy companies are going bankrupt is more technical.

Reserve base lending for unconventional reservoir projects became a ponzi scheme. This is how it works.

Step 1) An oil company borrows money or issues equity to drill a well.

Step 2) The well “discovers” oil. The reason I put discover in quotations is that the resource (not reserve, there is a difference) potential of shale source rocks has been known for decades.

Step 3) Estimate the resource and reserve potential.
NB: Resource is properly defined as uneconomic at the current price. Reserve is properly defined as economic at the current price.

Step 4) Book the reserve as an asset on the balance sheet as per SEC legislation.

Step 5) Borrow money against the reserve.

Step 6) Drill more wells and book more reserves and borrow more money.

Step 7) Repeat until you cannot repeat again.

This process was not always a Ponzi scheme. Before the mantra of peak oil and the fear the world as running out of oil this practice was done conservatively. But when the idea that world was short of crude supply the thinking became that oil was a one way trade. This gave Wall Street the confidence that lending money against high cost reserves to develop more high cost reserves was a sound practice. On the other side of the transaction little thought by producers was given to the scenarios that would cause these reserves revert to resources and be treated differently on their balance sheet.

Arch Of Baal Erected In New York City

A replica of an arch dedicated to Baal was erected today in New York City:

The arch historically served as the entrance to the 2,000 Temple of Baal, which was then converted to a Christian church and finally, a mosque.

No doubt this was done as an offering to Baal so that he would favor the debating skills of the Whore of Babylon when she meets Trump tonight.

The Charlotte, NC Riots

Paul Joseph Watson has made some interesting comments about the protests riots in Charlotte, NC:

• Stealing and looting cash registers from local businesses is not a legitimate form of protest
• A “protester” shooting another “protester” is not a legitimate form of protest.
• Physically attacking reporters is not a legitimate form of protest.
• Throwing rocks off bridges at passing vehicles full of families is not a legitimate form of protest
• Beating up innocent people in parking lots because they’re white is not a legitimate form of protest.
• Smashing up apartment windows where black people live to “protest” in favor of ‘Black Lives Matter’ is not a legitimate form of protest.
• Trashing your own neighborhood is not a legitimate form of protest.
• Looting the Charlotte Hornets team store so you can steal basketball merchandise is not a legitimate form of protest
• Attempting to hijack cars and terrify their innocent occupants is not a legitimate form of protest.

Dear Paul: You are correct - those are not legitimate forms of protest.

They are, however, indications of civil unrest, insurrection, and perhaps even revolution.

I guess you forgot JFK's observation about what is happening in the US and the world:

"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."

The people want change, and clearly many of them don't want either Hillary's or Trump's version of change. It's truly unfortunate that violence has broken out in Charlotte, NC but I would be amazed if we didn't experience a lot more of this as the future unfolds. People are being pushed over the edge, and when that happens they go nuts.

Trump Vs. The Economists

Establishment economists ranging from austere neoliberals to spendthrift Keynesians are united in branding Donald Trump’s proposed economic policies as “disastrous.”

He must be on to something.

These economists are the distinguished experts, after all, who have championed the globalization that gutted American manufacturing, promoted the offshoring and outsourcing of American jobs, encouraged American companies to keep trillions (trillions!) of dollars of profit abroad, and enabled the tax inversions allowing American companies to move to the country most willing to beggar its neighbor.

These are the celebrity academics who have championed the deficit-reducing, budget-balancing, tax-cutting policies that have crippled our infrastructure, degraded our schools, and cut public services from police and fire protection to garbage collection.

The Trump "disaster" they fear is that he may overturn their disastrous policies and actually do something to help We The People.

There really is a plan to destroy the US to more easily integrate its remnant into the "new world order". This election may be our last lawful opportunity to stop it.

Globalists On The Run ???

Until recently, you didn’t hear people being referred to as “globalist” very often. But in a time of rising nationalism, those who see the upside of globalism have become a distinct - and often embattled - tribe.

Last week, the globalists had a big family reunion in New York. The gathering was focused on the United Nations General Assembly, but a growing array of side conferences and summits and dinners also attracted concerned internationalists of every stripe: humanitarians, leaders of nongovernmental organizations, donors, investors, app peddlers, celebrities.

But an absence haunted the week. Almost by definition, nationalists and localists are underrepresented at these global gatherings. Their paucity was especially notable this time, because the rising signs of nationalism - whether in the form of Donald J. Trump’s winning the Republican nomination, the British vote to leave the European Union, or the German backlash against Angela Merkel’s welcome to refugees - hovered like a specter over many of the discussions.

The globalists have lofty aims, of course, like working toward a climate-change agreement, finding a solution for the refugee crisis, and deepening cross-border trade. But there seemed to be a growing realization that solving the problems of the world’s commons becomes harder when the globalists neglect their own backyards.

I don't feel sorry for these evil scum. Their "lofty aims" include destabilizing and destroying nation states, neglecting or wrecking our infrastructure, privatizing our air-water-soil resources, brainwashing our children, and displacing millions of people. And why do they do this? For their own benefit, not for We The People.

This "time of rising of nationalism" may be a setback for globalists, but they're not going away. They will continue to hound and mindfuck us until they get their way ... or until We The People banish them to Mars where they belong.

Mr. Robot Season Two Finale

I was happy to see that Mr. Robot addressed an issue I raised last year:

Ownership of property and resources is what matters (not "wealth" or "debt"), and ownership is recorded via hard copy. It would be difficult if not impossible to erase all the traces of ownership, and this is what will give the rich the upper hand when such an event occurs.

Stage 2 of Elliot's plan, to destroy all the paper records, would certainly take care of that issue.

By the way, a day or two ago I watched the 1964 movie Fail Safe. In that movie, a mechanical failure leads to an "accidental" nuclear exchange in which both Moscow and New York City are destroyed by 20 megaton nuclear bombs. The President's advisory group recommends that the only thing worth saving in NYC is the records of US corporations which are stored there.

Those records, deeds, and contracts are the prime instruments of control the rich use against the rest of us, and I'm certain they consider those records to be more important than We The People.

On the other hand, OUR important document, the US Constitution, is more or less disregarded by the rich and their puppet government in DC. That shows you where we stand in the overall scheme of things.
