From the mouth of an Obama drone....
“The president is right. The wall works."
Mark Morgan served as Border Patrol Chief under President Obama and was actually removed by the Trump Administration, but after nearly two years of staying silent, is speaking out.
https://wjla.com/news/nation-world/former-obama-border-chief-says-its-simple-the-wall-works
Well, if nothing else, it allows a News outlet with a significant audience to hi-light what loons these "demoncratic Socialists" really are.
I watched a part of it and Bernie was more focused on slamming the network than intelligently answering a question. If he is the best of the Demoncrats, this will be a cake walk for Trump.
What Long2 mentioned rings true. FOX must prove how "fair and balanced" they are by bringing in these loons. Regardless of what they do or how hard they turn, FOX will be the enemy of the DNC for the foreseeable future.
So sick of sycophants and suck ups thinking you can reason with the current Demoncrat party. FOX will learn the hard way. There is no reasoning with them. Become part of the collective, in their mind, or be cast out.
Crazy times
It's good to be back.
I think Assange better fear for his life. It is in his best interest to be extradited to the USA ASAP and put under protection. The deep state connections in the UK are vast and they want him 6 feet under.
What do I think?
Plan is for him to sing like a Canary, indict the Deep State in many malicious acts and crimes, expose the fraud during the election by the demoncrats, and then be pardoned by Trump. That's if he lives long enough.
What?!
No wonder FOX News wants a town hall with that little twerp. The little mans speech over the weekend plagiarized from Obama's speeches multiple times. The guy is a total fraud with a side of dangerous. Amazed how these morons get elected.
It's very possible Assange can cooperate in the Hitlary, DNC connection concerning Seth Rich's murder. There is rumor he has much information concerning the theft of the DNC emails and could cut a deal if he reveals it to DOJ.
Stay tuned. Fat lady hasn't sang yet.
Well, well. Look who’s back in town. I’m gonna get this party started.
MUCH to discuss.
Is anyone else lamenting the wasteland that was once the United States of America?
On another note. My buddy from the USGS says some strange shit happening in Mexifornia. Thinks a massive earthquake is eminent.
Hope all are well out there.
My pleas to the Messiah have come true. Who could have dreamed back in 2008 that the outcome would have been so wonderful?
Oh Obama..pay for our college and give us health care...make the sky blue again...we are mere mortal sheep without a shepherd...wipe away our tears of the last 8 years....lead us not into capitalism, but socialism and One World Govt....Make the Govt our God and all the good things that come from it....Help us to strike down the rich that give us our jobs and replace them with Govt entitlements. Lead us not into bravery but into capitulation..We are not worthy of wealth or success...Only you know how to give us hope......And corruption. AMEN
1,500-year-old Roman gold coin unearthed at Chinese tomb
Archaeologists conducting excavations at an ancient tomb in Luoyang, Henan Province, China, found Monday a gold coin from the East Roman era estimated to be over 1,500 years old.
The finding, reports China National News, is yet another proof of a long history of exchange between the Eastern and the Western civilizations and suggests that the area was part of the ancient section of the “Silk Road,” used by merchants travelling between China and the Mediterranean cultures.

10 Corporations Control Nearly Everything You Buy
http://www.financialsense.com/contributors/michael-shedlock/ten-corporations-control-nearly-everything-you-buy
Excellent
You should stock up on gold and silver while you can — in particular, physical precious metals and high-end mining shares.
In the short and medium terms, prices of precious metals will do whatever they do. Up a little, down some and sideways for a while. Day to day, you just never know. The price chart bounces around. But long term? Hold gold. Hold silver.
In fact, today there’s more reason to hold precious metals …
Why buy gold and silver, especially after the sell-down of the past year or so? Start with the fact that Chinese are buying lots of gold. Lots! Here’s the latest chart of Chinese gold imports from Hong Kong, showing strong, steady accumulation over the past two years:
Since September 2011, China imported 2,116 tonnes (metric tons) of gold. So in just two years, China has imported just under the equivalent of the entire gold reserves of France (2,435 tonnes) or Italy (2,451 tonnes).
Or look at it this way. While Western buyers and monetary players disdain gold and sell it — for example, while large Western stakes like SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) are liquidating gold holdings — the Chinese are buying gold, and then some.
Evidently, the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) is making good on its quietly stated long-term goal of creating a gold-backed national currency. That, and China is making all manner of bilateral trade deals with a host of nations, in which nations trade with China using their own national currencies and the Chinese renminbi. This cuts the U.S. dollar out of the cycle.

Mexico Bans GMO Corn, Effective Immediately
Just when you think there’s no winning against the biotech industry, news out of Mexico City shows that all is not lost. After years of deliberation, a Mexico judge has placed an indefinite ban on genetically-engineered corn. Effective immediately, companies like Monsanto and DuPont/Pioneer will no longer be allowed to plant or sell their corn within the country’s borders.................
...............This is a huge victory for the Mexican people, and provides at least temporary protection for the 20,000 varieties of corn grown in Mexico and Central America. The decision comes just days after thousands of people in over 50 countries participated in the global March Against Monsanto.

UK Orders WSJ To Withold Names Of Implicated LIBOR Manipulators After Story Already Hits Wires
In what is a staggering example of not only state meddling in the affairs of the "free press", but worse, sheer state idiocy, yesterday the WSJ posted an article on its website revealing that as many as 24 co-conspirators would be exposed shortly in the ongoing Libor manipulation scandal and divulging the names of various individuals on this list. What promptly followed was truly bizarre. As the WSJ reports shortly after posting the article, "a British judge ordered the Journal and David Enrich, the newspaper's European banking editor, to comply with a request by the U.K.'s Serious Fraud Office prohibiting the newspaper from publishing names of individuals not yet made public in the government's ongoing investigation into alleged manipulation of the London interbank offered rate, or Libor." This happened at 7:18 pm London time, after the original WSJ article had already hit the Internet.
The WSJ added that "The order, which applies to publication in England and Wales, also demanded that the Journal remove "any existing Internet publication" divulging the details. It threatened Mr. Enrich and "any third party" with penalties including a fine, imprisonment and asset seizure."
As a result, the media organization decided to comply with this gross example of state censorship, and now in the place of the article, one could find the following note:

Government shutdown is nothing of the sort while the police and surveillance states live on.
The so-called “government shutdown” isn’t really a government shutdown at all. It’s a public services shutdown. Food aid to needy families will stop. Over one thousand food safety and inspection workers will not go to work. Veterans looking to apply for benefits will face serious delays. The IRS won’t answer the phone to help you prepare your taxes, and will stop processing returns. Depending on where you live, you might have a difficult time getting your passport renewed. Zoos and museums are closed effective immediately.
But the government’s guns and surveillance state apparatus chug on without much of a blip at all.

Epic fail: 99% of Obamacare applications can't be processed, 'nightmare scenario' coming in January
Obamacare is going to crash and burn from technical issues more than political concerns, it seems. You've probably already heard that virtually no one can sign up using the online Obamacare exchanges. The web forms are broken. The code is buggy. The data integration is a jaw-dropping failure.
This is why, all over the country and across the media, no one can seem to locate anyone who has successfully signed up through Healthcare.gov. Even the one person the Obama administration rolled out as a "success case" turns out to be completely staged and fabricated.
But there's even more shocking news about Obamacare that could utterly destroy any credibility the system might have remaining: Of those applications who somehow make it through the broken online sign-up system, 99% can't be processed and will fail.
99% can't be processed
According to insurance industry insiders who spoke to CNBC, 99 out of 100 applications don't contain enough information to result in enrollment.

Exclusive: Criminal Obama admin allows government union thugs to work during shutdown
The Obama administration quietly changed its furlough guidance Friday to allow government employees who are also union representatives to return to work and receive a regular paycheck during the government shutdown.

Scott Walker refuses federal order to close state parks
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker has officially rebuffed a request from National Park Service to close several state park sites. In rejecting the order, Walker explained that the Badger State, not the feds, provides the majority of the parks' funding so there is no need for a closure.
The feds ordered Wisconsin officials to close the northern unit of the Kettle Moraine, Devil's Lake, and Interstate state parks and the state-owned portion of the Horicon Marsh, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported.
The state Department of Natural Resources not only ignored the orders but also removed a barricade federal officials had put before a Mississippi boat launch.
The DNR officials said their counterparts at the National Park Service could not close the launch because the state had the authority to operate it under a 1961 agreement with the federal government.

Today the Senate Sergeant At Arms and Doorkeeper is handing out “Thank You Capitol Police” buttons outside of the Dirksen Senate Office Building, a day after the D.C. Capitol Police executed an unarmed mother in front of her child.
The Sergeant At Arms also tweeted a quote by Senate Chaplain Barry Black praising the police who shot Miriam Carey, 34, after she drove away from a random checkpoint near the White House.
“Lord we’re grateful for our law enforcement agents and first responders and pray we may emulate their patriotism and self-sacrifice,” he said of the officers involved.
http://www.prisonplanet.com/senate-doorkeeper-gives-out-thank-you-capitol-police-buttons-after-officers-execute-unarmed-mother.html
The sickening reaction to the tragic death of Miriam Carey again reminds us that the establishment loves to celebrate and justify the slaughter of Americans who apparently deserve to be executed instantly for daring to disobey the orders of anyone in a uniform.
Degenerate, bloodthirsty DC cop hellbent on helping shoot an unarmed, mentally ill women blindly crashes into a police barrier.
Psychopathic criminals applaud and give standing ovation for cops executing mentally ill woman with a baby in DC.
The Government could not come to agreement and the debt ceiling was not raised. The Treasury Secretary Jack Lew is still using the pensions to fund the government until Oct 17. Once Oct 17 hits the government will completely shutdown. The US government is shutting down the areas that effect the American people. The US government wants the people to feel it. The longest amount of time a shutdown when was 21 days. While this shutdown is in process, the central bankers smacked gold down and is preparing a false flag to get the war started.
While This Shutdown Is In Process, The Central Bankers Smacked Gold Down And Is Preparing A False Flag To Get The War Started

Another Terrifying Debt Ceiling Poll Shows How Republicans Are Willing To Go Nuclear
Another poll — this time from CNN/ORC — shows that Republicans are pretty OK with the possibility of breaching the debt ceiling.
According to the poll, 52% of Republicans would consider it a “good thing” if the debt ceiling is not raised, compared with 40% who said it would be a “bad thing.”
Overall, 56% of Americans said this would be a bad thing, and 38% said it would be a good thing. On Tuesday night, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew sent a letter to Congressional leaders notifying them that the Treasury was using its “final extraordinary measures” before an Oct. 17 deadline.

Only Payroll Indicator In Shutdown Week Disappoints As ADP Misses, Follows Large Downward Revisions
With the BLS shutdown, and this Friday’s NFP report indefinitely delayed, the only labor report this week would be the (highly inaccurate) anticipated ADP Private Payrolls data. Moments ago it came, and disappointed all those hoping that finally, after five years, the Fed’s shotgun wealth creation strategy may be working when it not only missed expectations of 180K, instead printing at 166K with the bulk of jobs created in the service-providing sector, but excluding massive downard revisions (July from 198K to 161K, August from 176K to 159K), would have been the lowest print of the past 4 months. And while, finally, some 1000 manufacturing jobs were created in September, for the first time in over a year the high-paying financial sector saw an exodus of 4000 jobs. Wave goodbye to the “third half” 2013 recovery.

Shutdown day 2: Reality starts to bite markets and investors
Day 2 of the shutdown day two is upon us, and what some would call a sanguine initial reaction by investors to the budget loggerheads on Monday appears to be shifting fast into clear worries about a protracted battle. Twitter is full of bad-news stories of how the shutdown is hitting some groups hard. Here’s what’s new on the battlefront:
Treasury Secretary Jack Lew warns that the department is using up the last of its extraordinary measures to keep the debt ceiling at bay
A former Treasury official says there is a threat of recession if things don’t work out
President Obama shortens his Asia trip because of the shutdown
Then there’s Obamacare. Headlines across the Internet and newspapers spoke of a huge rush of Americans trying to access their state systems. New York’s health-insurance exchange was overwhelming by roughly 10 million Web visits. Californiasaw 54 million online hits to its site. The same scene played out across the country, and problems with the system are clearly there (MarketWatch found it couldn’t get into any state health exchanges). But the scene backs up the view that maybe Obamacare isn’t as unpopular as the Republicans thought it would be, even if there’smass confusion about the whole thing.

Reader's Digest wanted to know how honest world cities are, so it “lost” 192 wallets in 16 cities - that’s 12 wallets in each city - to see how many would be returned. Each wallet contained $50 equivalent of local currency, as well as a name, phone number, family photo, coupons, and business cards. The results, as IBTimes' Lisa Mahapatra illustrates are perhaps surprising. The US ranked well (with 8/12 wallets returned) but the troubled regions of Europe (Spain and Portugal) came a dismal last with only 2 and 1 wallets returned respectively.

Sophisticated U.S. Arms Flowing to Jihadists
Fox News is reporting a stunning theft of U.S. arms by jihadist salafists in Libya. This news item will be made much of by critics of Obama on the right. However, military and government blunders, cost overruns, unneeded weapons systems, and general mis-management are par for the course.
Of more relevance is the light this sheds on the U.S. arms being shipped into Syria. There have already been detailed press reports that there really are no significant controls that prevent these arms from reaching the most terror-prone and jihadist elements among the Syrian rebels, whose numbers are large in proportion to all the rebels. This decision to ship arms was foolhardy from the get-go, and now in light of the Libyan theft it looks even more ill-conceived.
This theft of arms needs to be seen in an even broader context, which is the utter folly of the U.S. military adventurism of the past 15 years.

Whirlwind churning, lovers learning
On this path of life we pass along, is it wrong?
Widows weeping, babies sleeping
Life becomes the singer and the song, sing along

13 Liberals Charged in Grant Fraud Over $16 MILLION in Aids Charity Money… Including Some With Ties to Obama and Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s Daughter.
The U.S. attorney’s office in Springfield has been busy the past few years investigating a variety of fraud schemes involving state grants. Thirteen people have been charged so far, six who have pleaded guilty.
Two of them have ties to President Barack Obama. One is the daughter of his controversial former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Another was chief of staff to Obama’s longtime friend Eric E. Whitaker when Whitaker was Illinois’ public health chief.

THE CONFIDENTIAL MEMO AT THE HEART OF THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS
http://www.gregpalast.com//vulturespicnic/pages/filecabinet/chapter12/Geithner_Summers%20Memo.pdf
The Memo confirmed every conspiracy freak’s fantasy: that in the late 1990s, the top US Treasury officials secretly conspired with a small cabal of banker big-shots to rip apart financial regulation across the planet. When you see 26.3 percent unemployment in Spain, desperation and hunger in Greece, riots in Indonesia and Detroit in bankruptcy, go back to this End Game memo, the genesis of the blood and tears.
The Treasury official playing the bankers’ secret End Game was Larry Summers. Today, Summers is Barack Obama’s leading choice for Chairman of the US Federal Reserve, the world’s central bank. If the confidential memo is authentic, then Summers shouldn’t be serving on the Fed, he should be serving hard time in some dungeon reserved for the criminally insane of the finance world.
The memo is authentic.
I had to fly to Geneva to get confirmation and wangle a meeting with the Secretary General of the World Trade Organisation, Pascal Lamy. Lamy, the Generalissimo of Globalisation, told me,
“The WTO was not created as some dark cabal of multinationals secretly cooking plots against the people... We don’t have cigar-smoking, rich, crazy bankers negotiating.”
Then I showed him the memo.
