World reserve status allows for amazing latitude in terms of monetary policy. The Federal Reserve understands that there is constant demand for dollars overseas as a means to more easily import and export goods. The dollar’s petro-status also makes it essential for trading oil globally. This means that the central bank of the US has been able to create fiat currency from thin air to a far higher degree than any other central bank on the planet while avoiding the immediate effects of hyperinflation. Much of that cash as well as dollar denominated debt (physical and digital) ends up in...

Frank Pavone's Insights On Election 2024

You’ve had this coming for a loooooong timeOne of my favorite all-time films is 1982’s “The Verdict” starring Paul Newman as down-and-out attorney Frank Galvin who takes on a case against the Archdiocese of Boston.After astonishingly turning down a settlement offer from the defendant and opting to go to trial, Galvin soon loses his star witness.Desperate and not knowing what to do, Galvin goes to the home of the trial judge late at night to beg for a continuance.The judge slowly closes the door in his face and says “I have no sympathy for you.” Consider me the judge these...

James O’Keefe last Friday warned he was about to release the most important story of his entire career. “I have evidence that exposes the CIA, and it’s on camera. I am working on releasing a story that I believe is the most important of my entire career,” O’Keefe said on Friday. “Do you think it’s a coincidence that right at this moment I am subject to an endless series of attacks?” he said. “This is obviously a sophisticated information operation designed to stop me from releasing this story. I’m sure you recognize they are masters of using half-truths and innuendos...

Rumours have circulated for a while about the health, physical and mental, of Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov. But the latest bout of speculation, set running last week by a report in Russia’s exiled Novaya Gazeta, seems more credible than many. It states that 47-year-old Kadyrov has been suffering from the potentially fatal condition of pancreatic necrosis and recently suffered a sharp turn for the worse. The Kremlin, the report continues, is looking for a successor to ensure continued stability in the region. Providing more details about Kadyrov’s declining health, Novaya Gazeta cites an anonymous source at the elite Moscow presidential...

On this date in 1942, red-haired Robert S. James became the last man judicially hanged in the state of California. He’d earned the noose three times over. The press called him “the Diamondback Killer” or “Rattlesnake James”. “Robert James,” records Robert Keller in his book 50 American Serial Killers You’ve Probably Never Heard Of, Volume Five, “must rank as one of the most creative killers in the annals of American crime. Not content with such mundane methods as shooting, stabbing or strangling, James resorted to such inventive devices as auto wrecks, drowning and rattlesnake bites.” James’s cunning homicides and his...

In the sanctuary city of Denver, Colorado, Mayor Mike Johnson (D) announced that "we will provide a long-term, sustainable response to address the migrant crisis. This program will offer six months of free housing, food assistance, workforce training and more to the migrants currently in the city's shelter system as they wait for federal authorization to work." Housing advocacy group Housekeys Action Network Denver (HAND) slammed Johnston, calling the City's efforts "inadequate." Willy Bastidas, a migrant, said "I think that it's insufficient. The mayor doesn't adequately represent immigrants' interests. He needs to listen to us and work with us toward...

3 years ago, Sheriff Clarke of Wisconsin asked the Fractal team to review the Wisconsin voter rolls – and the result was the Fractal Election Management application finding anomalies that cannot be found with current relational database. The Fractal team is not a political activist organization – we are high tech guys – who saw a problem and offered a solution. When we delivered the FEC database, we recognized many “contributions in kind” flowed in a river – below the surface with NGOs (non-governmental orgs), 501 Cs, grants, foundations – funding lawfare, voter drives, even making illegal contributions. Working with...

May 1, 2024 Sky News host Rita Panahi has slammed “clueless” hosts on The View defending pro-Palestine protests at colleges across the United States. Whoopi Goldberg praised pro-Palestine students pushing against a “narrative” through their protests. Sunny Hostin also stood with the pro-Palestine students protesting in colleges across the country. She referenced a professor who was thrown to the ground after confronting the police. “Sunny, that professor was thrown to the ground because she hit an officer on the head which she admitted to as she was led away in handcuffs,” Ms Panahi said. “She was stupid enough to admit...

Does anyone know anything about Vivaldi? I was looking for a privacy browser for the new ?Chromebook I was given. Brave doesn't seem to want to download, but the web search pulled up the Vivaldi browser. (I guess you could say it's a browser for all four seasons.) Anyone used this browser? Know anything about it?

The Fed will likely pause rate cuts/increases when The Fed reveals their plans today. Breaking: Federal Reserve officials are likely to hold interest rates steady at 5.25-5.5%—a 20-year peak—for a 6th consecutive meeting. With inflation still high, rate cuts seem off the table for now. Rate decision at 2pm Washington time. The Street seems aligned. Conforming rates are already up 161% under Biden. MBS returns have been abysmal under Biden/Powell.

Left documentary filmmaker Michael Moore has warned that Joe Biden fears losing the election due to his support for Israel. Moore’s comments came during CNN’s The Source with Kaitlan Collins, during which he predicted a similar victory for Trump to that of 2016. “I’d like to speak to one particular individual — and that is President Biden,” Moore said.

If Donald Trump wins in November, it will be a massive victory for the Right. Some right-wingers may dismiss a second-term Trump as pointless. But they would be mistaken. A Trump victory would be both significant symbolically and in actual policy accomplishments. It would be a bigger boost to the Right than his first victory in 2016. Moreover, it would be a serious setback for nationalists if he lost. Let’s start with immigration. Trump’s first term marked the first time immigration had been positively addressed since the Eisenhower administration. Trump actually brought down immigration. Near the end of his term,...

According to That Korean Jew on Instagram the girl was surrounded by five people wearing keffiyehs and bludgeoned in the head while they stomped on her Israeli flag. The girl reportedly lost consciousness and her body went limp. She was carried away and sent to the Emergency Room. This was at UCLA campus! That Korean Jew added: We are experiencing a nation-wide pogrom led by college student “activists.” This is UCLA. This is their “intifada” chant in practice! The Jewish girl’s head was bleeding after the assault. Collin Rugg: JUST IN: Jewish girl at UCLA sent to the ER after...
