Before reading this discussion outline ask yourself: If the U.K. and Germany are the dominant two economic powerhouses within the EU, and the UK gives the EU system $500 million per week to share with the rest of the EU member nations (wealth spreading),…. what happens when the UK deposits stop, the member nations dependency remains, and Germany is the only powerhouse left trying maintain the system?
Standard and Poors (S&P) has downgraded the United Kingdom bond rating from AAA to AA as a punitive punishment for the Brexit vote.

NEW YORK, June 27 (Reuters) – Longer-dated U.S. Treasury yields fell to session lows on Monday after Standard & Poor’s lowered United Kingdom’s credit rating by two notches following its vote to depart from the European Union last Thursday. (link)

Punitive Punishment?  That’s exactly what this is.  This is a purely a political move by global bankers, institutional financial and political ideologues, within the financial markets.  The global cabal of elite financial interests are pissed; the peasants are revolting.

After the Orlando terrorist attack Hillary Clinton went into a modified sub surface communication status called “radio infrequent”.  Tenuous times require those who communicate via poll-tested and political wind-driven soundbites to move carefully amid unfamiliar terrain.
Now, as predicted, after the “anti-globalist” Brexit result, Hillary Clinton goes further into the status of “radio-silent”.   Full Stop (stay quiet, stay deep), and stay away from visibility until the consultants can gauge the best course.  Status = Deep Sweat, Anxious.

The professional media political class, who are still trying to come to grips with the ramifications of a stunning geopolitical push back, are also in a reassessment mode.  The polling releases today from Washington Post/ABC and from Wall Street Journal/NBC also highlight their modified deep-pause position.

Before you get angry at Mitch McConnell refusing to say if Donald Trump is qualified to be President of the United States, I would suggest you to go back through the CTH archives to the period before Kentucky’s primary race (between Matt Bevin and Mitch McConnell on May 20th, 2014) and see how this was not only expected, but structurally predicted.
Unfortunately in the fall of 2013 and spring of 2014 few people were paying attention because the various political events were not in the headlines.  However, it was in this period (Oct ’13 to June ’14) when all the UniParty political relationships were taking action toward a very specific united goal.  Mitch McConnell was/is a key player.

In addition to the specific action taken by McConnell to undermine any threat to the UniParty, if you need further supportive data you only need to follow the money.
Against Senator Mitch McConnell’s appearance today, the January Financial discovery previously outlined (and below) should make a lot more sense.

There is a considerable amount of media banter about a petition being submitted to the U.K. Parliament requesting a second EU Referendum.  –SEE HERE–
The petition is being pushed by disgruntled left-wing activists who voted to “REMAIN” in the European Union and lost the original referendum by over 1.3 million votes to the larger majority who wanted to LEAVE.
However, enterprising internet researchers have discovered most of the actual signatures for the second referendum are from people who do not live in the United Kingdom.
When the petition reached 1,194,001 signatures, 840,013 (70%) of those signatures were from outside the United Kingdom – SEE HERE – . And only 353,988 (30%) were actually valid signatures (ip addys) within the UK.

A few days ago Bloomberg published a poll of 2,001 registered voters containing a sub-set of 945 voters considered “investors” in the financial markets (full pdf below).
From those voters who are also financial investors the results showed a 50% favorability for Donald Trump, and a 33% favorability for Hillary Clinton.  Not only do voters trust Trump more with their personal and family safety, they also trust Donald Trump more with their personal and family finances:

(Bloomberg)  More voters with a stake in the stock market say Donald Trump would be better as president for their portfolios than Hillary Clinton, with about one in four saying they’ll alter their asset mix if the Republican is elected and a similar share saying they’d do so if the Democrat wins.
A Bloomberg/Morning Consult national poll on investment, tax and economic issues shows voters with money in the market pick Trump over Clinton, 50 percent to 33 percent, as the person they think will be better for their portfolio. Those with more than $50,000 invested answer the question almost identically as smaller investors.

The ruling class globalists are in full meltdown mode today across almost every media platform possible.

The U.S. political media is especially insufferable today.  They’re working overtime trotting out every pontificating member of the left-wing cloister to decry the decision of U.K. voters to exit the cosmopolitan superiority of The European Union.

It is a rather remarkable moment to behold, and the comparative contrasts deserve some emphasis.
• In months past, the political ruling class have waxed philosophically about the working people who don’t have enough money to cover any unanticipated life emergency greater than $500.
Today those same voices point breathlessly to the bankers (currency market) and investing class (financial market) losses – – seemingly unaware the ‘working people’ they previously defined as non-Vichy are unaffected by such consequences.
Oh dear, the global bankers are losing today?  Yeah, so, pass the cannolis.
Wait, wha.. huh?

US presidential candidate Donald Trump delivers official news conference at Turnberry Golf Course in Scotland.
Yesterday the U.S. media pundits were attacking Mr. Trump for leaving the U.S. during the presidential race.  Today, not so much.  Trump appears rather prescient.

Following the United Kingdom referendum vote to leave the European Union, UK Prime Minister David Cameron announces his pending resignation.
“There can be no doubts about this result” – During a press conference this morning Cameron said he is not the strong determined committed leadership required to begin unraveling Britain from the EU.

Standing outside Ten Downing Street, Cameron further gave a timeline of three months for a transitional process and a goal to have a new Prime Minister by October when the annual conservative (Tory) party conference begins.
