Utter proof the FBI framed Trump and shielded Hunter

More to the point, though, that the FBI offered to pay such an exorbitant sum in hopes Steele’s anti-Trump claims could be backed up is proof positive the bureau knew these claims were not verified.

That is key. The rules of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and the Justice Department mandate the FBI must verify information before submitting it to the court in applying for surveillance warrants. Even though it could not prove the Steele allegations and had every reason to know they were exaggerated if not out-and-out false, the FBI relied on the Steele claims in sworn applications.

It gets worse. The FBI obtained FISC surveillance warrants to monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page in October 2016 and mid-January 2017, representing to the court that Trump appeared to be in a corrupt conspiracy with the Kremlin. Finally, in late January, the FBI interviewed Danchenko, who debunked Steele’s reporting. Nevertheless, even after speaking with Danchenko, the bureau continued relying on Steele’s allegations when — again under oath — it persuaded the court to extend the surveillance in April and June 2017.

*** and ***

Of course, what the FBI didn’t mention was that what Danchenko had been “truthful and cooperative” about was the fact Steele’s claims were sheer nonsense. Thus, FISC judges were led to believe Danchenko had verified Steele’s reporting when the truth was just the opposite.

*** end quote ***

​So when do we disband the FBI? And, send people to jail!

Argh!

Specifically, all those that testified and swore in the FISA courts should be convicted.

If they are lawyers, disbarred.

Starbucks may hire them.

Absolutely disgraceful.

And no one in DC is on the war path!

PayPal, Bail-Ins, & The Necessity For Trustless Money

Sure enough, the URL to the updated AUP was under the paypalobjects.com domain, which anybody in our business knows is real.

The document appeared to have been a PDF version of the forthcoming new AUP which was due to roll out in early November. It has since been replaced by the blank page however the original is still available via Archive.org

*** and ***

“It’s a bell that can’t be un-rung”.

I’ll tell you a couple other bells that can’t be un-rung:

When the Canadian government unilaterally seized bank accounts of not only the truckers who protested vaccine mandates in Ottawa (most of which are now gone anyway), but also designated the accounts of citizens who legally donated via GoFundMe or GiveSendGo as targets (sourced from a spreadsheet that somebody hacked from a third-party website, btw), that was a bell that can’t be un-rung.

*** and ***

The bells have been ringing for awhile:

In 2013, during the banking crisis in Cyprus, the first “bail-in” was enacted, when depositors’ savings were confiscated from their bank accounts to recapitalize a banking system that had over-leveraged itself through excessive bad debts to zombie companies.

*** and ***

How much of your wealth is reliant on trusting external, opaque systems and complying with their increasingly one-sided, ephemeral and arbitrary policies, expectations or whims?

Versus, how much of your own money do you have outside of the fiat banking, Big Tech operated monetary system?

Because one morning you may wake up to find out that’s all you have left.

*** end quote ***

Certainly seems that one should have some “wealth” outside of the financial / banking system.  That could be “cash”; although inflation makes that an expensive depreciating asset.  Metals that could be used as barter.  And, bitcoin, assuming that you have power and the inet.  Interesting that in Germany, “firewood” is the new gold!  Imagine not having heat or food in a First World country like Germany due to the complete and utter stupidity of their Gooferment.

Man who fatally shot Marist dad Paul Kutz fired 30 rounds: indictment

Johnson, who faces one count of second-degree murder and two firearms charges, and Taylor are scheduled for arraignment on Friday.

The sheriff’s office in Fulton County, Georgia, issued an arrest warrant for the suspected murderer in July after he allegedly skipped court.

He had been scheduled to appear on felony gun and cocaine-dealing charges.

The following month, he was investigated in the Poughkeepsie area as a key suspect in a gang-related murder, law enforcement sources told the news outlet.

Johnson previously did time for robbery and burglary and was released on parole in August 2018, state prison records show.

*** end quote ***

Parole?  Guess that system needs to end!

Skipped in July?  What did the various State and Federal agencies DO to recapture this felon BEFORE he killed an innocent citizen.

Argh!

Ageless and scandal-proof: Chinese tech groups bank on virtual influencers

Ageless and scandal-proof: Chinese tech groups bank on virtual influencers (3 minute read)

Virtual celebrities are becoming more attractive to companies in China as the Chinese government cracks down on human celebrities deemed to be politically outspoken or morally questionable. China’s virtual idol industry is predicted to increase to 48 billion RMB by 2025. Companies like Tencent and ByteDance have spent hundreds of millions of dollars developing digital influencers. While virtual celebrities are more controllable, they aren’t completely immune to scandal and they are currently earning far less than what human influencers used to earn.

How does a virtual influencer get involved in a scandal?

ECONOMICS: Are “knowledge workers” next on the obsolesce curve?

Five ideas that will reshape Capitalism’s next century
October 11, 2022 | 5:38 pm

*** begin quote ***

THE GREAT KNOWLEDGE-WORKER CULL
First, they came for the agricultural workers. Then they came for the industrial workers. Now they are coming for the knowledge workers

THE RISE OF THE TRILLION-DOLLAR TRUST FUND BABY
In the next decade or so we will see the birth of a new kind of baby: trillion-dollar trust fund babies who are destined to inherit fortunes that are bigger than the GDPs of small countries or the stock-market valuations of large companies.

THE NEXT FRONTIER OF COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE: GENETICS
The West has understandably remained nervous about exploiting the potential of genetic science since the horrors of the Holocaust. That is likely to change in the coming decades — indeed genetic science may be for the next 40 years what computer science was for the past 40 years.

THE NEW ROAD TO SERFDOM
The great clarion call of market societies is freedom: freedom to exchange the fruits of our labor in the marketplace for goods and freedom to express our views in the marketplace of ideas. Yet there is a growing risk that we are losing our freedoms not only to a new generation of intellectual censors but to watchers who monitor our every move.

*** end quote ***

I couldn’t find the fifth idea.  

But the first one is stunning. 

If I was a “knowledge worker”, then I’d be very concerened.

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: FDA knew of the death risks and turned a blind eye to manufacturing defects

COVID jabs: Pharma whistleblowers reveal catastrophic safety failures
Exclusive: Elizabeth Lee Vliet, M.D., looks at claim ‘the FDA knew of the death risks’

*** begin quote ***

Since its inception in 1934, The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has had regulatory power to oversee drug and medical products manufacturing processes and quality control to protect the public from unsafe products. Recent research revelations from career pharma insider whistleblowers Alexandra Latypova and Hedley Rees, however, provide chilling information on catastrophic safety and manufacturing oversight failures for the still-experimental COVID-19 injections that are linked to the skyrocketing deaths and complications around the world. Dr. Michael Yeadon, former Pfizer chief scientist worldwide for Respiratory Pharmacology, has reported that Pfizer documents showed the FDA knew of the death risks. Making the…

*** and ***

Your shot may contain virtually no active ingredient – perhaps helping to explain apparent lack of efficacy. Or it may contain a massive overdose – perhaps explaining the high frequency of “sudden death syndrome.” You have no way to know which you get when you take “the jab” or get a “booster.”

*** end quote ***

This sounds like the CDC and the FDA needs to be shut down.

At the very least the top echelons need to be fired; possibly prosecuted for murder, depending on the facts that come out.

Sigh!

I didn’t classify this blog post as GOVERNACIDE because I can say for certain that people died because of this but it certainly seems an obvious possibility.

ECONOMICS: Energy is critical to life as we know it and it’s not “free”

Joe Biden’s Energy Crisis
By Rupert Darwall
October 03, 2022

*** begin quote ***

The West is experiencing its third energy crisis.

*** and ***

This time is different. The third energy crisis was not sparked by Saudi Arabia and its Gulf allies or by Iranian ayatollahs. It was self-inflicted, a foreseeable outcome of policy choices made by the West: Germany’s disastrous Energiewende that empowered Vladimir Putin to launch an energy war against Europe; Britain’s self-regarding and self-destructive policy of “powering past coal” and its decision to ban fracking; and, as Joseph Toomey shows in his powerful essay, President Biden’s war on the American oil and gas industry.

*** end quote ***

The USA went from a net exporter to a net importer all to be “green”.  Like “climate change” is a real thing!  And, if it was, that it’s not driven by China and India.

We have not built a gasoline refinery in the USA since the 70’s (or so I’m told).

This “electric car” stupidity is just beyond comprehension.

Hopefully the voters can start taking back control.

31T$ of debt should be a huge wake up call.

Agree.  But “hated” is imho to strong a word; “not admired” would be my word.  I “admire” true sportsmanship.  Special Olympics, big pros who try to help and inspire little kids, Roberto Clementi, Sadio Mane with his broken iphone11 are the ones who exemplify the essence of humanity I hope I can emulate.

Hope more MP4B = “Millionaires Playing For Billionaires” can emulate good sportsmanship and remember that we are all brothers.
