After Trump someone like Nunes. He was doing more than just talk after the attack on Trump.

Maya… right on. Good post.
macroman3… HA! That about says it. Let’s hope it happens.
Maya – excellent !
I will do my part to make it go viral !
Thank you for writing eloquently what I and many others feel .
An Open Letter to Pelosi. May it go viral
Madam Speaker… a fitting title, for you are indeed the ‘Madam’ of a House of ill repute… With a lifetime career on a government salary, just how were you able to amass a fortune of hundreds of millions of dollars? We the People can only wonder what corrupt ‘cookie jars’ you have had your hands into.
We the People have become tired of the corrupt politics of bought-and-paid-for politicians of both parties, politicians who no longer serve We the People nor our once great nation, but instead feather their own nests and serve the highest corporate bidder. It was because of this great revolting disgust with you and your Democratic Party ilk that We the People elected Donald Trump. Why? Not because he was possibly a great leader, but because he was not bought-and-paid-for like the usual suspects. He was rich enough to finance his own campaign. He was not in politics for the money of it all… unlike the rest of you corrupt bastard children of the political process. He wanted to save this country from the likes of you all… including the embedded Deep Staters who think they run this country no matter who is President. Yes, we elected him to drain the political swamp you all fester in. And We the People know that is why you hate our President and obstruct him at every chance.
We the People never did believe the ‘Russia-gate’ collusion hoax. It is refreshing that thorough investigations revealed not collusion, but instead corrupt swamp creatures making up a hoax to remove a sitting President. What is the definition of ‘Sedition’?
And when your Russiagate hoax did not work, We the People are stunned at how little regard you Democrats have for the constitution or this once great country when we see deep state CIA operatives like the alleged ‘whistleblower’ Eric “Charred-Marshmallow” colluding with the likes of Adam Schitt to commit sedition to remove a duly elected president… all under the ‘color of law’. Now he hides behind a fake ‘whistleblower’ status to claim immunity and anonymity? We know who he is. Does he know that whistleblower protections do not apply to someone who commits sedition or treason? He has no first hand knowledge, so he is not a true whistleblower.
And Adam Schitt’s ‘kangaroo court’ of one-sided hearsay with no rebuttals allowed was amazingly bad theatre, while all you Democrats screamed “Impeach”….. it was obvious you had nothing to impeach for. And now you are unwilling to continue the process, all the while screaming “We Impeached Trump’. No… you have NOT! Not in legal fact, and not in the minds of We the People. And you all are too stupid to understand that doing it again… and again… will not change the minds of We the People.
You have made We the People all the more determined to ReElect our President Trump. He may not be the greatest human being to be President, but he is doing the job We the People elected him for. He is exposing the corruption and starting to drain the swamp. We want him to continue the job, and it is our hope that the Judicial branch remains Non-political enough to do it’s job for this country and prosecute the corruption that is exposing itself in your efforts to “get Trump”.
We the People want a house-cleaning. It is our sincere hope that the Judicial branch of our government does it’s job… fairly and thoroughly. For if We the People do not see prosecutions for the crimes you all have committed, there will be hell to pay.
If two terms of President Trump have not succeeded enough to demolish your corrupt “Democratic” party, then perhaps we can elect Donald Trump Junior thereafter to finish the job. He is obviously well trained by his father. We the People want our country back. The last election, and the next election, are about We the People taking our country out of the hands of you corrupt swamp creatures and politicians. And THAT is what you fear…. not Trump, but what he represents… WE THE PEOPLE. You, Madam Pelosi, and the Democrats, are indeed enemies of We the People, as the President has said.

I appreciate your market views. Hopefully we keep on having this good action in the PMs. There’s a lot of healing to do!
Feets don’t fail me now! 🙂
treefrog – one more thing
I guess given the lack of new posters here, pm’s and shares probably still aren’t really on anyone’s radar, which is good, and probably won’t be for awhile.
There’s some excitement among us old crusters, but after years of beatings this small move looks great to us, but it’s just a blip on the charts compared to other markets. The trick for us will be holding on to recoup the massive losses.
treefrog – concur
The shares are leading. We haven’t seen that happen in many, many moons.
Gold really didn’t finish all that strong, but the shares did, so hoping that is a good sign for the future. The further we get from 235 the better. We’re getting close to overbought territory depending on what the metals do, but hopefully we can get at least back to 2016 highs of 290 and see what happens from there.
USD is getting weaker. RNO mentioned other commodities. We’ll see what happens.
Interesting interview with Wayne Jett (USAWatchdog.com)
He discusses gold backed US$ around the 30 minute mark . (He dislikes the Fed and the global establishment). His book , ‘The Fruits of Graft’ is a classic , written about 8 years ago . Not an easy read , but important !

catching a little wind under its wings heading into the last hour… gotta love it.

Reverse point wave down in stock indexes.
It appears today may trigger the sell execution for the S&P, NASDAQ, and the Dow. The dollar decline, gold and other commodity rallies should confirm a down move in stocks.

I just tuned in and read about Rich. So sorry to see him go.

Thanks for letting up know about Portugeezer. He will me missed.
Then Samb reminded me about Roy, one of my favorite singers.
Portugeezer was a man who not only had dreams but followed and lived his dreams. Sweet dreams Portugeezer
Germans Rush to Buy Gold Due To Proposed Lower Anonymous Purchase Limit
Obviously TPTB don’t want people owning Gold, its too private and does not “fit” with the new “modern” system, or experiment created after 1913 and imo ended and reversed with 9/11 and 2008 tipping point. A slow and reverse transition.
A REAL run on the Banks would involve the masses buying Gold. (instead of real estate) Gold related investors are betting against banks and governments. Simple crap.
Key parts of link below.
“Reports have emerged depicting long lines in front of a physical gold sales location in Germany, in view of pending legislation which would once again lower the anonymous purchase limit, this time from €10,000 to €2,000.
Residents of the country appear to be very concerned about the impending limitation, as the European Central Bank (ECB) continues to draw fire for its controversial economic polices such as negative interest rates.
Per the legislation, non-transparent assets, accounts, and even private safety deposit boxes will now be subject to state information gathering by law. Gold is a bastion for private value storage, so the stricter limits come as no surprise
given the state of economic affairs in the EU, skeptics maintain the new laws are part of a larger bid to establish financial control and force users to remain stuck in a faltering system.
Gold is thus seen as one of the final hedges against irresponsible government policy, and the proposed new limits on the precious metal will leave residents of Germany with even fewer options.
They don’t want normal people to bank run their scam paper. Gold and hard assets is how you protect yourself from inflation. They want to know every single person that tries to get out of their cage.”
Metals survived the first attempted slapdown
Shares crawling back.
Strong close in the works today?
Ipso facto I agree with you 100% you got the wrong impression
I’m glad you said something.
My only point was my view on globalization in reverse. Populism growing. Globalization Ship sinking, every man country for himself. Your part about…
“The farmers don’t want ANYONE developing these projects.” In my view is the “excuse” or fake temporary reason. And after miners go bankrupt or pull out, the farmers “minds” might change. Do to newer propaganda.
On the POSITIVE side? Shutting down mines will lower the Gold supply and keep prices high for the other miners. Eh? 🙂
Mr.Copper
The protest against mining in Mendoza province is for environmental reasons. The farmers don’t want ANYONE developing these projects.
Almost all mining companies develop projects outside the countries where they are headquartered. If you think this is wrong you should sell all your mining shares.
Maddog @ 8:42 Big Business Is Racing To Stop Little People From Using Diesel
My view is Diesel is very important for big businesses. You name it. Aircraft, Railroads, Ocean shipping, Trucking land shipping etc etc. So, the LESS diesel demand from the LITTLE people, makes it better (less/demand/cost) for the BIG pigs at the trough. Eh? 🙂
Hasn’t anyone noticed, lesser quality diesel is more expensive than higher quality more refined gasoline. Heating homes in the North East using Diesel oil AKA #2 heating oil is very expensive these days. Diesel is supposed to be cheap. So big businesses or central planners got many people to spend money switching to natural gas for heating homes.
ipso facto @ 9:50 re Mining Companies In Argentina Getting Wings Clipped
As soon as I saw that story, my thoughts were, they are all or mostly foreign owned miners. So the “natives” hamper them, hopefully they lose money and pull out or sell the land cheaply and pull out, then the natives change the rules back to “anything goes” and THEY make the money, rather than let foreigners take the gold and sell it.
So I googled Mining Companies in Argentina. 144 of them. A few are domestic. Its an interesting list. with web sites.

Let’s hope it continues to vault from there.
