It’s worse than socialism. At least socialism in Europe gives you free health care free college ” for its citizens” and better working conditions or did. The Demos and even some Repubs want socialism for everyone else while we pay for it.

The Democrats allow themselves to be bribed to get campaign money. They will “sell out” any American that dosent bribe them..EVEN the IRANIANS have threaten to disclose their names of those who they were able to bribe if trump walks away from the NUCLEAR DEAL Democrats made ………WELL MAKE MY DAY ! as Clint would say !

Its clear TRUMP is the right GUY, at the right time   !  JUST watch out for Israel they will they will throw you to the dogs when they are done using you !  They are Trumps achilles heel …keep your friends near and your enemies closer .

It looks to me like that “Flatline” stayed at the “HIGH end”and refused to go down despite  efforts to push it down..thats my read ,for what it s worth .

The only thing I know is that gold will open down in the am and the SM futures will be up

Pretty much the same that it has been for the last 8 years.

These criminals have all markets completely dialed in with whatever algo’s and/or software they use to rig the markets. With the ability to print endless funds, they can do whatever they want.

Very strange bid action for gold showing around 4:00 pm today .
Flatline with three blips :

Lol on something’s always gonna cause that. Yeah politics.
I kinda don’t feel sorry for the politicians there getting what they deserve after the way they treat their people not to mention the half of million people who died in Syria. There want to separate from Russia’s oil and unseat Assad who won’t agree to a bigger pipeline going through their country. Now their flooded with hostile immigrants and jihadist. Some how I think they can just assimilate them and all will be good but it’s not gonna happen. After all that’s happened they still keep their borders and many of these people aren’t even refugees.
They have legitimate fears of war with Russia due to reliance to their oil and procimity. Russia is low on the totem pole as far as richest economies. Cutting off exports isn’t going to help peace.
I wonder what they’re gonna do about that uranium deal Killary got all that money? Why isn’t that stopped?

Spinning a Crossfire Hurricane: The Times on the FBI’s Trump Investigation

An appeals court says CA can list the herbicide glyphosate as a carcinogen

After much fanfare, a state appeals court has ruled that California can list glyphosate as a carcinogen — and that the state’s ban on discharging the herbicide into public waterways stands, too. Despite Monsanto’s best efforts to keep the toxicity of their product under wraps, the ruling in California is undoubtedly a small victory for concerned consumers and environmental advocates everywhere. The great debate surrounding glyphosate has been in full swing for quite some time now. But in spite of this ruling, its clear that the drama and the controversies (and the health risks) coming from Monsanto and their flagship product, glyphosate-containing Roundup, are far from over.

Would be nice if we could get along better with the EU but there does have to be some changes.

Trying to force The EU to stop using Russian gas is a giant mistake. Just not going to happen.

I don’t think that’s too smart either. One of the basic rules of politics is never put your opponents in a position that they can’t retreat from. Might be some bad results from that policy.

Just for the record.  They failed, they wanted over a 100,000 demonstrators, but got only 40,000, most of them paid to show up.  Taking a page out of the George Soros playbook…

Yeah, looks like the EU is increasingly thumbing their noses at Trump and his Neocon cronies. I think I read yesterday that the EU was going to bypass the USD and use Euro’s to buy Iranian oil – also balked at the Iran sanctions.

Works for me. Big win for Vlad.

You Tube has blocked this.  What the Cabal is doing is blocking anything that goes against their narrative. They need to win the House and Senate back so they can impeach Trump and go on destroying this country. Ain’t going to happen if people start seeing what is going on.

Socialism causes the spread of more socialism. Inaccurate, unstable or fundamentally flawed currencies cause unstable prices. Like Oil going to $145 and back down to $28 and NOW its around $80/bbl. >>>Oil up then down screwed up Venezuela by going up, then down. Not their fault they have a mess.

PEOPLE ARE DRYING TO DO BUSINESS OUT HERE!!

Globalization is global socialism. The USA USED to be the only capitalist country on a socialized planet. After 1913, the USA got SUCKED in. Over time the greedy grabby global Bernie Sanders in charged, sucked the USA dry. And now the USA is pretty much a socialized country. How can you have “capitalism” with fake money and fake exchange rates?

I just stopped to empty my mailbox of GARBAGE. The taxpayers paid a grown man with generous benefits, to deliver with a small truck, GARBAGE in my mailbox. I don’t EVER want to hear anyone complain about hamburger flippers getting a raise.

These mailmen of today are getting away with murder, compared to a burger flipper job. Burger flipper should be paid equal to a mailman, or vice versa.

This is not smart, going after Vlads pocket is very dangerous….the SM could get slaughtered, but something was always gonna cause that.

It’s like the battle at the cornfield at Antietam, or the wheat field at Gettysburg.  Waves of buyers, then sellers. Oh the humanity.

Venezuelan Government Seizes Kellogg’s Factory After Closure: A Recipe For Failure

The socialist Venezuelan government has seized a closed Kellogg’s factory and decided to make the perfect storm for failure out of their theft. The government has handed control of the factory over to the workers who will attempt to continue to produce Kellogg’s products.

Hold your laughter, because this actually happened. According to the BBC, the move comes as Kellogg’s announced it was pulling out of the dystopian communist country because of the worsening economic situation brought on by the disturbing socialist policies of President Nicolas Maduro.

Maduro, who has previously accused the United States of waging economic war against his government, and called the factory closure “absolutely unconstitutional and illegal,” even though his policies are the ones which caused the closure of the factory to begin with.

But in the meantime, Maduro has decided to hand the factory over to workerswho he thinks will continue production. Interesting, considering most people won’t work long without being paid, and if Kellogg’s cannot find supplies to produce their infamous cereals, it’s unlikely the workers will be successful. But socialists don’t think much more than one second about any decision anyway.

Sounds terrible right now. Guess a airfilter in a enclosed room might help if not real bad. Hope people keeping their pets inside or at least on their Lanai if enclosed. They have mini filters now at Walmart. Hope everyone was able to get covers for their water. Only eat thick skinned fruit exposed. But preaching to the choir.
They just had it on TV cloud of ash almost 6 miles high.

Ok At least keep the spittoon handy! 🙂

With these SE winds, the VOG spreads statewide.  They will be getting it in Honolulu, 250 miles away.  I am NOT going to the mainland!  🙂

I’m taking an in-house vacation… no outside yard work today.  Hooray!  Just gotta keep the spitoon handy.

Maybe time for a little vacation?
