Sadly, this doesn’t mean our houses are worth so much more.

It means our dollars are worth so much less.

A million just ain’t what it used to be.

Our old house in CA we bought for 155 K. Appraised now 750 K.

Good morning bjorkdream.

Beautiful.
Thank you.

On WarRoom Rickards made the point that President Trump is in the exact same position that President Johnson was when he became president, at least as far as whether the Vietnam War became his or not.

He also explained that, in order to end it one has to completely ignore the media; they’re going to describe an end to the war as a capitulation to Russia, never mind that Russia is dominating militarily.

The State Department says they are not going to “fly around the world anymore” trying to negotiate peace. It’s up to Russia and Z(cia).

“As VP Vance Says the Russia-Ukraine War ‘Is Not Going to End Any Time Soon’, State Department Spokeswoman Warns US ‘Not Going To Mediate Peace Talks Anymore’”

Trump should have walked away on day one. This mineral deal doesn’t give anything back to the taxpayers, and just allows the MIC to remain in Ukraine for longer.

There is no contract zone in the current situation. Crimea and the Eastern provinces, who voted to get out of Ukraine and rejoin Russia where they are ethnically aligned has to be allowed their choice, but the Old money oligarchs in Kiev won’t allow it, the Globalist European masters don’t want that because it puts an end to their mission to destroy Russia who are opposed to the master Globalist plan, and the puppet Zelensky needs the war to remain in power. Rock, meet hard place….Best thing to do would be to walk away and let the situation deteriorate to where the Ukraine/Europe axis can’t sustain the resistance any longer.

I don’t think that it was Trump thinking he had to project strength, as much as his wanting really bad to make the deal, and not accepting that he just couldn’t.

Poor Duran bros.

They’re still missing out on arguably the most gloriously great andworld transforming adventure in history

They still actually believe that Vlad Man Rad and super smart but Orange Man Bad or at least super dumb. Lol.

With only one intellectual “Eye Wide Open”; an “eye” that doesn’t see clearly due to Eurovision filters AND one “eye” still ” Wide Shut” which impairs depth perception

it’s not surprising that they are still unable to comprehend what’s happening despite all of the evidence that’s now in plain sight.

Bottom line, by equating what PDJT is doing by unironically using the term “sunk cost fallacy” theyre providing a rather endearing example of projection.

That is because they have plenty of disposable income from the free money given to them from Uncle Sugar. Too bad US citizens get nothing and have to pay for their good times.

The “family units” probably went up due to all the benefits – to the rest of the family – of having even just one Anchor Baby on our soil.

Mind-blowing that people from a country that had a hurricane, which the country recovered from in about 6 months, have been here for 25 years!

Brilliant!

When you consider that Chinese “wages” are not much above slave labor, and the companies cannot pay even those amounts, that shows you how oppressive the Chinese Communist elite has been and remains.

Yes, the well-fed military will be sent out eventually, if the peasants and factory workers do not calm down!

It’s sad that those Chinese that ran Hong Kong before the communists took over aren’t an opposition party!!!! Now those Chinese that are Christians have to meet underground! A lot is going on in China and not much of it’s good!!! Pray for the protection of those Chinese that are Christians! JMO

Mao was able to literally hide the catastrophic effects of the great leap forward for any number of reasons. Today, that is not possible. China is too enmeshed in the world community and these effects are already affecting monetary policy. We are in an abusive relationship with China, these relationships mostly end sloppily. End it must. Mao could hide, Xi cannot. Key difference.

Is this information coming from the new “White House wire?”

President Xi has more worries than just populist anger. If he leaves his palace, he could be dissolved by acid rain. Or he could be swallowed by a gaping sinkhole. Or he could be inundated by a collapsing garbage dump, or choked by fumes from an industrial accident. This is the China the Communist party has made.

Sounds like propaganda to me.

“Xi, that’s too bad.”

Worthy of Wordman!

We really dodged the bullet on that commie duo which would have been the coup de grace’ for our already mostly illusory Republic.

Now let’s hope they don’t blow it by doing a “trade deal” with China. A deal that they will never honor or abide by but will sign so they can continue to lie, cheat, and steal. Just like they did with the last disastrous deal they signed in President Trump’s first administration. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Sadly, we’re up to 1000+ times being fooled, and our politicians still haven’t learned. A combination of sellouts and idiots. And you have that moron Rand Paul screeching about “free trade.”

It’s very popular nowadays to blame this on covid school closures. I don’t buy it.

If a kid has an average IQ, it just doesn’t take that long to learn how to read or do basic arithmetic. Many kids learn to read outside of the school setting. And IN public schools, it’s been decades since what’s been going on in elementary school classrooms amounted to more than (being generous) an hour a day of actual “teaching” or more than a few minures (if that) of any one-on-one attention to any students.

Okay maybe covid closures would have put some kids behind in the high school maths. But if they missed trig and precalc, these are marginal on, e.g. SAT.

Something else going on. Migrants that don’t speak English? Too many from a culture that just doesn’t do “school”? Schools and teachers that are just not teaching in lieu of “other” activities, or because of the crap we’ve hired as teachers in recent years? The poison of smart phones? (See, e.g., research compiled by J. Haidt, Anxious Generation).

India is already taking American jobs. Anyone working in telecom is facing the reality that “offshoring” is cheaper and many people like my own brother are losing good jobs with telecom companies that take American Tax Dollars to invest in “infrastructure” but who send support positions in Network Operations out to India. It’s absolute trash. I deal with India all the time because of a program I use on my job. I am in constant communication with them. They all have “Masters” degrees that are complete trash. They can do ONE THING, they have a guy for everything and their service is always subpar. Honestly, the United States needs for our government to stand in the gap here and protect American jobs first. There isn’t a reason to allow for the outsourcing of people with lesser experience and English speaking skills to get better experience and take jobs from our sons and daughters (brothers and sisters). It’s time to cut India loose.

We can see what happened in those other Western countries for ourselves, yet we are still in denial, for fear we will be called bigots, I guess.

Similarly, we can also see the harm H1B has done to the American worker, and we have been called bigots by people like David Sacks, who stands to benefit from it, so we keep quiet about it.

Here is yet another very powerful article that adds to what a real threat this is. I posted it when it first came out. Very sobering.

“Mass Immigration Without Assimilation Is A Recipe For National Suicide”

Excerpts:

Sarwar doesn’t mince words: He wants his people to take control of every level of government in Scotland.

“We will only truly get real power, not if we just have more Pakistanis sitting in council chambers and parliaments, but actually having more Pakistanis and South Asians sitting in the corridors of power making the decisions,” said Sarwar.

He went on to declare that the days where “our South Asian community are viewed as a vote bank or a curry bank are well and truly gone. The days where South Asian communities get to lead political parties and get to lead countries is now upon us. The days when South Asian communities get to decide not just at which school our children go to but what they are taught in those schools, is also coming.”

For example, when someone like Sarwar talks about the “South Asian community” getting to decide what’s taught in Scottish schools, what he means is that Muslim immigrants from Pakistan will soon get to decide the curriculum — not just for their children but for all schoolchildren in Scotland.

Once they have that power, does anyone seriously think they will refrain from imposing an Islamist agenda, not just in schools but in society at large?

FASAB Standard 56 and the Authority of the Director of National Intelligence to Waive SEC Financial Reporting

https://missingmoney.solari.com/fasab-standard-56-and-the-authority-of-the-director-of-national-intelligence-to-waive-sec-financial-reporting/

[snip]

I also summarize the recent adoption of Federal Accounting Standards Board (FASAB) Standard 56, which gives those with high level national security clearances the authority to modify government financial statements. I then discuss the implications of these to reporting exemptions for both the federal government and the financial system.

On May 23,2006, BusinessWeek published the article “Intelligence Czar Can Waive SEC Rules (Kopeki, 2006). In the article Kopeki writes that at least since the Carter era the President had the ability to waive standard business accounting and securities-disclosure obligations required by the SEC. However, an entry in the Federal Register revealed that in 2006 President Bush delegated the authority to waive financial reporting to the Director of National Intelligence. At the time the article was written, the primary concern appeared to be in concealing top-secret defense projects and investments. However, to our knowledge there is nothing in the law to restricts its use of financial reporting exemptions to the defense industry. Perhaps the most important factor in maintaining a strong military is to ensure the strength and reputation of financial system and the dollar as the primary reserve currency of the world. It is possible that this authority could be used to conceal certain financial institutions from fully reporting if such waivers were deemed to be in the interest of national security. Note also that the timing of the transfer of this authority to the Director of National Intelligence just ***preceded*** the financial crisis [the GFC (Global Financial Crisis) aka sub-prime crash – W]; reporting exemptions may well have been granted during the crisis in order to conceal sensitive actions by the Federal Reserve and other key financial entities.

[snip]

According to the latest official figures, the $2.2 trillion Cares Act (U.S. Treasury, 2020) pushed the official deficit to $3.2 trillion in fiscal year 2019. As of November 2020, the official total debt held internally and externally exceeds $27 trillion (United States Debt Clock, 2020). Importantly, between September 2019 and October 2020, the FRB’s balance sheet increased by $3.3 trillion (Federal Reserve, 2020); nearly all new federal government debt issuance was fully monetized by the FRB. The debt trajectory is anticipated to soar in the coming years.

However, with the opaque financial reporting rules described in this report, it is possible that the FRB’s balance sheet is much higher than official reports indicate. Unfortunately, without full transparency there is no way to know the degree to which the FRB may have funded a variety of secret activities through unreported debt monetization. Along these lines, critical financial institutions may also be exempt from reporting any covert funding activity. Normally, issuers of securities need to “make and keep books, records, and accounts, which, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer” and maintain internal accounting according to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) (15 USC 78m(b)). Failing to do so can result in criminal liability (15 USC 78m(b)). A waiver from the Director of National Intelligence can remove some of those requirements, allowing private entities to deviate from GAAP and even alter their books if the waiver allows.4

Even within the official financial records much activity can be and is hidden. For example, Webb (2020) carefully documents how through Operation Warp Speed $6 billion in vaccine contracts have been funneled through a government contractor with ties the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) [EcoHealth Alliance via USAID, the largest funder of EcoHealth Alliance, with that firm along with its other funders rightfully being mentioned many times in the recent, limited hangout WH report on the pandemic origin but NOT ONCE is USAID mentioned in that 557 page report – W] and the Defense Advance Research Program (DARPA). While Webb’s article is critical reading for a variety of reasons, of greatest relevance here is that financial reporting is embedded in and thus hidden by the private contractor. These types of “public-private” partnerships are increasingly being used to shield activities and financial reportion from public scrutiny. Importantly, the activities of the private contractor are exempt from Freedom of Information Act requests. As another example, consider the BlackRock investment firm, which authored the bailout strategy for the next crisis in which central banks would make direct loans to trading houses on Wall Street as well as facilitate direct purchases of primary and secondary corporate bonds and bond exchange traded funds. What is called the “going direct” plan also includes making direct transfers to individuals in digital wallets. BlackRock was then given a no-bid contract to manage the FRB’s corporate bond buying programs. (Martens and Martens, 2020)

While I have shared several examples of finances/activities that are not fully transparent, reporters and researchers have been able to glean valuable information about opaque programs that are critical to the future of everyone. However, there is much we do not know:

How many companies are exempt from standard SEC financial reporting?
Which companies are exempt from standard SEC financial reporting?
How much in revenues, expenditures and other financial information is exempt from standard SEC financial reporting?
What kinds of projects are funded via the hidden system of finance?
How many federal government entities/agencies have modified financial statements?
Which federal government entities/agencies have modified financial statements?
How much in revenues, expenditures and funded activities are hidden from the public by FASAB Standard 56?
What kinds of projects are funded through the hidden system of finance?
Is there an unreported expansion of the FRB’s balance sheet (unreported debt monetization)?
Is there an unreported expansion of balance sheets at Treasury and FHA/Ginnie with bonds, debentures and mortgage securities that are issued without being recorded on official balance sheets?
Is there hidden market participation and leverage provided through the Exchange Stabilization Fund?

[snip]

Didn’t Elon say that Federal government spending had absolutely no identification attached to it as to what the spending was for? As a result it can’t be traced as to what it really was spent on? There was supposed to be some identification marker but that was just dropped from being used?

I posted this yesterday, Winston, but through another site, as it was not yet available in this form on the TCN.

Thank you. Thank you…

This incredible interview with Ms Fitts is essential viewing. My admiration for her, a devout Christian persecuted for her unshakeable faith and moral stance when she confronted the corruption she saw when in government, has no limit. Wicked smart doing what she admits is the gift given to her, and courageous to a degree I can only imagine being as she pulls back more covers on the demonic workings of entities which, for decades, have had their satanic tentacles wrapped around and through a dark subterranean world, the names of string pulling inhabitants remaining in great part unknown.

At one point towards the end of this too short interview, Tucker asks if she knows the name of the Luciferian Acolyte in Chief…

I noticed she paused, considered, then deftly side stepped. My view is that she does know but decided discretion was the better part of valour and kept her own counsel. Wise…for her own safety.

I cannot over stress how gripping it was listening to her. She is forthright, and it seems unafraid…

I’d call her a Warrior for Christ, who surely walks with her as she confirms in more, great, disturbing detail what we have been incrmentally learning over the last decade or so.

Calling this interview “Must See” isn’t adequate for its content.

God bless her.
