Politics

I agree but you might check the rest of the book to see what happened to most of the messengers....including all but one of the apostles

If I wasn't aware of what happened to them, I probably wouldn't have asked to not be shot!

I am aware, hence my plea!
 
Trump today: "My father was born in Germany." Another lie, his father was born in New York.
Trump's paternal grandparents were born in Germany...

Except for the pundits/talking heads in the leftist media and the drones that work inside the halls of congress, nobody in the U.S. really gives a shit. Now the tweets? They're always a hoot!

I was born in Fredericksburg, TX , my ancestors were amongst the first settlers in 1846.

And nobody gives a shit about that either. :E Rofl:
 
Trump probably meant his grandfather. Here in the U.S. we call them "Senior Moments" and fellow seniors seasoned with wisdom just let it go. :LOL::LOL::LOL:
 
Read this headline this morning.

"Alberta's borrowed money in South Africa an 'unusual case,' economist says. R750,000,000"

The surprise is around the Rand volatility and the market liquidity for resale of the loan.

I'm glad we are helping to keep the lights on in RSA.

I don’t recall anyone on the left making comments about Michelle referring to Barack,s home country of Kenya
 
These are some recent headlines along with stories. This is how the global swamp is slowly starting to drain. Financial corruption involving leaders and politicians is finally being investigated around much of the world. Most of this deals with second and third world countries. Have no fear. It will be coming to a first world country near you soon. Many European banks are feeling the pressure. To stay in business they will roll over on their customers. It will start happening with American and Canadian banks before long. Hopefully the world will be a better place when justice is applied equally to all. (y)

What a truly exciting time in world history to be alive!



The Panama Papers and the Paradise Papers have been instrumental in gettting the ball rolling. Here is a short 45 second video that is worth seeing.

Good article giving a short overview of corruption within the American political system. With the Mueller report basically over, consider phase 1 almost complete. Expect phase 2 to start soon. Look for Barr, Rosenstein, Huber, Horowitz, and U.S.A.'s all over the country to start handing out indictments. Wouldn't it be interesting if plea deals are already under seal? If the Podesta brothers were in that group, think of what the Venn Diagram's would look like with all the people they know in power in DC, the nation, and around the world?

We live in fun times. Enjoy!

You Can’t Put America First Until Washington’s Foreign Bribery Industry Has Been Shut Down

Brian Cates
April 4, 2019 Updated: April 4, 2019

As I noted in an earlier column, I suspect the Flynn Intel Group was created as part of a counterintelligence sting to identify and target people engaging in illegal lobbying to influence American foreign policy.

What would be the purpose of a counterintelligence sting targeting people looking to do illegal lobbying to influence U.S. foreign policy?

You can’t really put America first until you shut down the vast illegal foreign bribery industry in Washington that disguises itself as ‘lobbying.’ The Clintons, with their apparent pay-for-play deals, are merely symptomatic of the entire D.C. lobbying and bribery culture. American foreign and even domestic policy has been for sale to the highest bidder for a long time.

Can you handle the brutal truth? A lot of the people spending big money in Washington to shape U.S. foreign policy … are not Americans.

You’re not really going to succeed in getting American lawmakers in D.C. and U.S. news media outlets to put America first until you cut off that massive pipeline of foreign cash that both have been getting from their foreign paymasters.

Many lawmakers in Washington and “news” media outlets sold out America to foreign interests long ago. These people needed Hillary to win that 2016 election to keep the machinery humming along smoothly.

Just from listening to Trump speaking on the campaign trail, the people involved in the massive pay-for-play industry in both the federal government and the news media knew he’d cause massive problems for them if he somehow managed to win that election.

China, Iran, Russia, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and many other countries either have their governments or factions within their country paying a whole lot of money to our lawmakers and our mainstream media to “help” write U.S. foreign and even domestic policy.

Those on the receiving end of this vast pipeline of foreign money here in America, both in our government and in our media, are desperate to cover up what they’ve been doing, which is selling out the rest of us to their foreign clients and keep the money coming from their foreign paymasters.

Clear Precedents for Prosecution
It’s important to pay attention to the fact that Mueller’s investigation led to the prosecution of two prominent people for illegal foreign lobbying, and then trying to hide their gains through bank and tax fraud. The charges against Paul Manafort and Rick Gates show exactly how serious these crimes are.

Former Washington power player Tony Podesta may literally be the first person to have figured out where this is heading. Recall what Podesta did immediately following the unsealing of Manafort’s indictment.

Upon reading the Manafort indictment, Tony Podesta:

  1. Dissolved his successful lobbying firm;
  2. Dove into the deepest hole he could find;
  3. Still has not stuck his head out of that hole.
Since Podesta did that, you’ve had the Mueller investigation demonstrate just how bad it is to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).

Meanwhile, it’s been in the public sphere for months that the only investigation Flynn is cooperating with—that we know about thus far—is related to…what? Illegal lobbying in violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act.

What else do we know? Well, media reports have suggested U.S. Attorney John Huber of Utah has been investigating the Clinton Foundation, which includes massive “donations” from many foreign countries.

While the DNC Media Complex and the Democrats in Washington might have thought the Mueller investigation was just about bringing down Trump, I believe they were allowed to think that, and in many cases, they were fed deliberate disinformation so they’d go on thinking that.

In fact, the Mueller investigation, wittingly or not, was long ago turned to the purpose of setting up what Trump is going to do now: which is to shut down the massive foreign bribery industry which much of the D.C. establishment reaps great profits from.

And he’ll win this fight, too.

Longwacker...................this is a great thread you have started...............................consider starting a "politics 2" thread. ..................FWB
 
Trump owes 170 million US$ to Deutsche Bank. Without German money he would be bankrupt again.

Reminds me of the old saying:

"If I owe the bank a million dollars and can't pay, I'm in trouble. If I owe the bank 170 million dollars and can't pay, they're in trouble."

In this case, if Trump can't pay, the bank's in trouble and Trump proved ONCE AGAIN, he's smarter than the bankers.:LOL::LOL:

Without the United States, Germany, being dumb enough to start TWO world wars, and the rest of Europe would still be in ruins or be a part of the collapsed USSR.
