Bet on the Buffalo Bills, all the way to the Super Bowl.
Do you think the NFL will NOT use this opportunity to rig the games to make the Bills the "heros" and to "Win one for the Gipper!" ... except it will be to "Win it for Damar."
Think of the hours and hours of coverage about how the Bills "overcame the ultimate adversity, and fought their way through to show the world they could conquer all."
Just a thought.
We should have this stickied. What is a more important issue than this today?
McCarthy could not get 50% + 1 on first ballot or second ballot or now the third ballot.
Who will blink?
Corrupt RINO's or Patriot Republicans?
Because the judge rigged it.
He threw out 8 of 10 counts. For the remaining 2, he made a requirement that was impossible to meet: the plaintiff had to show INTENTIONAL mischief AND that it DID change the election results.
I wonder if she will appeal. I would think this is judicial misconduct by the judge, but I don't know for sure.
Told ya.
What happened to the "magical" NFT's?
Thought so.

Buyer beware.

Elon Musk started building electric cars.
Virtue signalers just HAD to show off their virtue by having an electric car.
Virtue signalers also just HAD to insist that government push electric cars on everyone, like it or not.
This drove the price of Tesla stock ... to the Moon!
The huge increase in stock price made Elon Musk a multi-billionaire.
Elon used some of his billions to buy Twitter.
Elon bought Twitter and discovered the horror of what the leftists were doing to suppress viewpoints they didn't like.
As free speech becomes more and more restored in the world, nothing the leftists push can possibly succeed due to the fact that, well ... they ain't got no facts to back up their stupidity.
Funny how life works.
What do criminals do?
Crimes.
What do criminals do if they think you are on to them, and might be ready to arrest them?
Stop, for awhile. Slow down. Cover their tracks. Try to evade you.
What do criminals do if they think you are an incompetent doofus and have no idea what they are doing, and will never be able to do anything even if you did figure it out?
They keep doing moar crimes.
What do criminals do when they do moar crimes and they keep getting away with crazier and crazier stuff?
They do ... MOAR!
What happens when they do moar, but all you ever do is cry about it, and they can see that you will never figure out how to stop them?
They go ALL IN.
And ...
THAT is when you have them by the balls.
THAT is when you can lock them up and throw away the key.
THAT is when you can bring down their entire criminal structure on their heads.
The American founding fathers contempleted the idea that an "enemy" might be DOMESTIC, not just foreign.
They required an oath (or affirmation) of ALL public officials -- federal, state, and local -- to support the Constitution, and to do so against ALL ENEMIES of it (see Article 6, Section 3).
They defined "treason" as giving "aid and comfort" to any "enemy."
The deep state criminals and their zombie non-thinkers will attempt to gaslight everyone by claiming that an "enemy" is ONLY someone during a time of war, and no war has been declared, so ... muh no enemy blah blah blah.
However ...
If I somehow managed to rig an election in say, France (or any other country), so that the true winner that was voted on by the French people was kept from taking office, and someone of my choosing was installed into office instead, would the French people and the (legitimate) French government consider me an "enemy?"
Of course, they would. Anyone would be an enemy if they overthrew the duly-elected government, even if it was done via election fraud.
Anyone who engages in election fraud -- or attempts to engage in election fraud -- so as to overthrow the legitimate decision of the People, as to who they want to be their government servants, is (by definition) an enemy of the People, and an enemy of the Constitution. That is true, whether foreign OR DOMESTIC.
Anyone who aids and abets (gives aid and comfort) to such an enemy, as well as the enemies so engaged, have committed TREASON.
By definition.
There is NO STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS FOR TREASON.
Upon conviction, the penalty is DEATH.
This ain't no game.
Black pillers, doomers, gloomers, and the like need to GET YOUR FUCKING HEAD STRAIGHT.
Stop acting like a weak pussy, and STAND UP FOR WHAT BELONGS TO YOU -- a free society, run by a government that upholds the rule of law and does not trample on your rights.
You don't have to go fight in the streets.
BUT STOP ACTLY LIKE A FRIGHTENED LITTLE 6-YEAR OLD GIRL.
ACT LIKE A FREE ADULT IN A FREE SOCIETY -- AND DEMAND THAT OTHERS DO THE SAME FUCKING THING.
Enough of this "Oh, we can't do anything ... they are so big and strong ... blah blah blah." STOP.
These people WILL pay for their crimes. There is NO compromise. NONE.
They WILL be exposed for their Covid fraud, their vaccine manipulation schemes, their crimes against children, their treason, and the harm they have done to millions of people.
Time to act like YOU are in charge. Because you are. We the People are the boss, not some unelected scum.
Stand up. Speak out. Do not let ANYONE gaslight you are anyone else.
BE STRONG.
There are 2 cases. Loy Brunson has 1 case, which is still stuck in a Utah court (the judge is sitting on it and won't do anything).
The other is by his brother, Raland Brunson. This one, the judge ruled to dismiss. He appealed to the Appeals court. They ruled to dismiss. Now, he is appealing to the United States Supreme Court.
The Brunson brothers have a website with info:

NOTE: Read through the history of the 2 cases. These guys are taking it to ALL government employees who refuse to do their jobs! Amazing work.
Database latency -- a geeky term, but that’s how they did it!
A policeman pulls over a speeder. The police computer reports that three hours ago a similar vehicle and person held up a liquor store -- so the police are on alert.
No database latency.
County election managers change the zip code of 31,000 voters on September 3. Ballots go out that week. Those 31,000 are undeliverable. Someone collects those valid ballots. On September 15th, those addresses are quietly changed back.
National Change of Address Database (NCOA) will not pick up those address changes. They didn’t happen because there is no history.
The 31,000 citizens were getting their mail just fine -- except for ballots. Ballot addresses were driven by the county mail-in ballot database -- the one that was changed, then changed back.
Many states send ballots to everyone; the recipient is none the wiser that they never received a mail-in ballot. They may vote in person. Oops! “You already voted!” Ever heard that?
Welcome to database latency.

Are you engaged in a trade or business?
If so, do you KNOW what the legal definition of a "trade or business" is in the law?
You can find it in the tax code at 26 USC 7701(a)(26):
The term “trade or business” includes the performance of the functions of a public office.
There is NO OTHER definition of this term anywhere in the tax code.

Since there is speculation out there about what the special counsel is doing (or really doing) regarding Trump, I decided to go back and look at what has been going on in Trump's lawsuit over the MAL raid.
The filings in that case are here:
https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/64911367/trump-v-united-states/
Here are the relevant happenings, as far as I can tell. Some of it is kind of funny, actually:
8/22/22 - Trump files legal complaint regarding MAL raid to have a court order requiring (a) a special master be appointed to oversee of the procedure and handling of the items taken, (b) prevent the feds from looking at anything until a special master is appointed, require the feds to give a detailed receipt of what was actually taken, and (d) require the feds to return all items that were not listed in the search warrant.
8/26/22 - Trump's lawyer files summons against federal government (informing them they have been sued, and must respond within 21 days).
8/26/22 - Interesting twist! Someone named Raj Patel filed a Motion to Intervene in the case. This is a 3rd party (neither the Plaintiff nor the Defendant) who wants to join in the case. If you are suing your neighbor because their dog is barking all the time, I could potentially intervene as another neighbor and join the case, too. I am not a party to the original case, but I want to join in because I agree with you, and want the dog barking stopped, too. Here, Patel is claiming that he plans to run for President, and has a legal right to be a part of this case, because any ruling regarding "presidential records" might eventually affect him, too. Of course, it is a "motion," which means asking the judge "permission" to let him into the case. Fat chance, right? Right.
8/27/22 - Judge issues a notice of intent to grant Trump's request to appoint a special master, but sets a hearing for 9/1/22 where both parties can argue their position on the issue; also, Defendant (feds) must file a Response to Trump's motion by 8/30/22, as well as a detailed list if items seized, and an explanation about what has already been looked at of the seized material; these documents will be sealed; then, Plaintiff has to file a Response to that by 8/31/22. (8/30 - feds have to respond to Trump's Complaint, and provided info on what they took and what they looked at; 8/31 - Trump responds to what they say on 8/30; 9/1 - Both parties to be at hearing about the matter on 9/1).
8/27/22 - Judge denies Raj Pate's Motion to Intervene.
8/30/22 - Raj Patel is not giving up. Files a motion to get the judge to change her mind about letting him get involved in this case.
8/30/22 - DOJ provides list of items taken. Some are personal items, some are documents with "CLASSIFIED," "SECRET," and "TOP SECRET" markings. DOJ claims that these are being evaluated by intel agencies and cannot be further disclosed at this time.
8/30/22 - More people join the party. Several people file an Amici Curiae ("friend of the court"), which is a notice to the court they they want to join in because they have some sort of interest. These people are trying to stop Trump from getting a special master appointed. They are not trying to be parties, but basically trying to "help" the DOJ by giving their own legal opinion as to why the judge should rule against Trump. These people are: Donald Ayer, Gregory Brower, John Farmer Jr., Stuart Gerson, Peter Keisler, William Weld, and Christine Todd Whitman. If you want a list of people who are anti-MAGA, this would be a good place to start. Whitman was a RINO governor of New Jersey, has "served" in GOP administrations, and endorsed Biden over Trump. Showing her true ugly colors here.
8/30/22 - DOJ files their Response, that the judge required, explaining why they think a special master should not be appointed to oversee the items taken from MAL.
8/31/22 - Several "media" companies file a Motion to Intervene, for the purpose of getting access to those seized documents. This includes ABC, CBS, NBC, Associated Press, and others.
8/31/22 - Trump's legal team file their Reply to the DOJ's Response, also required by the judge, giving their side, and saying why the DOJ's claim that a special master should not be appointed is legally wrong.
8/31/22 - Raj Patel also files a Reply to DOJ's Response. He also wants a special master appointed. He also wants to be the one to decide who the special master is. ;-) He does have some interesting ideas and case law in his briefs, but his writing is terrible, and he will not be taken seriously due to how corrupt the system is -- judges and "licensed attorneys" hate anyone getting into the courts without their permission and following their made-up rules, even though we all have a right to access the courts directly, without their permission. Anyhoo ...
9/2/22 - An entry in the case file says that the court held a hearing on 9/1/22 for the parties (does not say whether Raj Patel was invited -- lol) to present their positions in the case to appoint a special master, etc.
9/2/22 - LOL! Get this -- Someone not part of the case sent a letter to the judge, and filed it in the case file, making it an official document of the case. O'Rane M. Cornish, Sr., "A distressed U.S. Citizen," wrote a letter to the judge stating they were "offended and repulsed" that Yahoo News ran an article, in which is referred to Trump as "President Trump" and not "Movant Trump." He/she/it also says, "see what happened on January 6th?" as a reason to not use the word "President" when referring to Trump. Wants the judge to order the attorneys in the case to stop calling him "President Trump." LOL. Can't make this stuff up!
9/5/22 - Judge orders a special master to be appointed to oversee the review of the items taken from MAL, that are (a) personal items and documents, and (b) items that fall under attorney-client privilege; also says the DOJ cannot use the items for investigative purposes, until after the special master's job is completed; however, judge allows intel agencies to review any classified materials; both parties have to get together and agree to who the special master will be, and file that decision with the court by 9/9/22.
9/6/22 - Judge issues orders to deny Amici Curiae requests, and also Raj Patel's request.
9/6/22 - LOL. Several people file letters with the judge, wanting to be the special master (I think they are all random people). Was it any of you frogs?
9/8/22 - DOJ files an appeal of the judge's order, but also wants to be able to proceed to "investigate" the items, while the appeal is pending.
9/9/22 - Until now, the list of items seized was under seal. Now, the DOJ wants it to be unsealed, so the media can look at it. Uh huh. So, this is how the list of items seized became public knowledge -- DOJ wanted to get it to the media, due to "SECRET" and "TOP SECRET" markings on some documents.
9/9/22 - Both parties provide their list of candidates for special master.
9/9/22 - Everything on hold, pending appeal to 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, regarding judge's order to appoint special master.
9/12/22 - Trump files an opposition to DOJ wanting to be able to continue to use the items seized in their "investigation," since that was not the judge's order.
9/12/22 - DOJ files notice to judge that it wants 1 of 3 people to be the special master. Each side had listed 2 candidates, 4 total, and DOJ wants one of Trump's candidates to be out.
9/12/22 - He's baaaaack. Raj Patel files another document, basically saying the court should side with Trump, and order that the DOJ cannot prosecute him.
9/15/22 - Judge issues order to DENY the DOJ's request to allow them to continue investigating, at least for now.
9/15/22 - Judge appoints Raymond Dearie, as Special Master. This is one of the candidates proposed by Trump. Special Master is to: review all items seized from MAL, determine if the list of items provided by the DOJ is full and accurate, (is DOJ hiding anything), reviewing "privileged" information, and identifying personal items.
9/16/22 - News "media" files notice that they want in on this whole thing.
9/16/22 - Special Master Raymond Dearie serves notice to parties to get this thing started.
9/16/22 - Raj Patel files another document, which is very interesting, as it is loaded with case law. Just a shame it is also loaded with some really weird stuff, which will give the judge a reason to dismiss it, and ignore the case law. He wants the whole case to be dismissed, and says that Trump cannot be prosecuted because he was the Executive, and his documents are his to classify or not, and the current AG cannot prosecute him for having those documents.
9/19/22 - HOLY SH*T. Joseph Lednardi, a 3rd party, files an "EMERGENCY MOTION" to put all government employees on notice that they must follow the law. It is 184 pages, and I don't have time to read it all. But skimming through, he cites the United Nations, Nuremberg, Human Trafficking, Crimes Against Humanity, Rape, Torture, Murder, the whole kitchen sink, basically. Might be interesting to read, if you have time. The judge will ignore it, because courts are corrupt and they don't want to look at this type of stuff.
9/19/22 - LOL. Steve Colon, a 3rd part, sends a letter to the judge, in response to the person who was "offended" by people calling Trump the "President." This guy says that Trump won the 2020 election, and he is still the President, so calling him President Trump is correct. Lots of stuff going on in this case!
9/20/22 - Judge issues order to clarify how the seized materials should be handled -- they are under seal.
9/22/22 - Appeals court has issued an order that the district court must allow the DOJ to use any CLASSIFIED documents in their investigation, but everything else cannot be used in an investigation, at least while this case is ongoing. At this point, Trump has mostly got what he wanted: A special master has been appointed, personal items will be returned, attorney-client privileged material will be reviewed to see if it can or cannot be used in an investigation, but documents that have a classified marking on them can be used by DOJ, without special master review.
10/3/22 - While special master stuff is happening, and various legal documents going back and forth, Raj Patel tries again by filing another document to get the case dismissed. He brings up some very interesting case law, which the judge completely ignores. But then, he is not a party to the case, so it is up to the judge as to whether or not to pay attention. If Patel was a party to the case, and the judge ignored his pleadings, it would be a violation of oath of office by the judge. Here, he can only make requests, which the judge consistently ignores.
10/4/22 - Judge grants media's motion to intervene, for the purpose of accessing court records in this case. Notice, when a "licensed attorney" for the media files a Motion to Intervene, it is taken seriously by the judge. When a 3rd party "non-licensed attorney" also intervenes, and does so in a way that would threaten the legitimacy of the court's jurisdiction, the judge just ignores without explanation. I will say, however, that it is possible that Raj Patel is not following procedure. If a motion is filed, then a hearing MUST be scheduled. If he did not do that, and there is no indication that he did, then the simple filing of the document means nothing. I am guessing he does not know that.
10/20/22 - For the past few weeks, the special master and both parties have been going back and forth about the seized items. Trump is claiming Executive Privilege (ironically, the same thing Raj Patel is claiming), and DOJ is claiming they are not subject to Executive Privilege; with some documents, Trump is claiming they are Presidential documents, and DOJ claiming personal documents.
NOTE: On 10/21/22, the fake January 6 Committee in Congress issued a subpoena to Trump. Was this their attempt to get at those documents in another way, or to make them public when they were under seal?
10/27/22 - Raj Patel tries again. Now, he wants a jury trial for this whole thing.
11/3/22 - Raj Patel again. It would be interesting if he really was a party to this case, what might happen.
11/7/22 - Trump and DOJ are in dispute on some documents, with Trump claiming Executive Privilege, and DOJ saying otherwise. Special master will check with National Archive on guidance.
As of today, 11/19/22, the parties are going back and forth, via special master, to determine which documents/items are Executive Privilege and which are not.
11/18/22 - AG Garland appoints a special counsel. Garland claimed it was to investigate whether anyone violated the law to interfere with the "lawful transfer of power," following the 2020 election, or the certification of the Electoral College vote on January 6, 2021. He also said his reason for doing it was that BOTH Trump and Biden would be running for office.
Seems like this move has NOTHING to do with the case Trump has regarding the MAL raid, or even classified materials.
The only real violation of law regarding the Electoral College vote and the transfer of power was the election fraud of 2020, and the unconstitutional certification of the Electoral College vote.
Looks like they want to make people think, or generate some rationale, to claim that those classified documents that are NOT within the scope of the special master in the MAL case, somehow show that Trump tried to stop the election fraud from resulting in a coup to overthrow the duly-elected president.
First off, everybody at GAW ... STOP FUCKING BELIEVING WHAT PEOPLE SAY (PAYTRIOTS).
READ THE SHIT FOR YOURSELF!!!
THEN discuss.
Garland's statement says:
I am here today to announce the appointment of a Special Counsel in connection with two ongoing criminal investigations ...
The first ... is the investigation into whether any person or entity unlawfully interfered with the transfer of power following the 2020 presidential election or the certification of the Electoral College vote held on or about January 6, 2021.
The second is the ongoing investigation involving classified documents and other presidential records, as well as the possible obstruction of that investigation, referenced and described in court filings in a pending matter in the Southern District of Florida.
Now, THIS is weird:
Based on recent developments, including the former President's announcement that he is a candidate for President in the next election, and the sitting President's stated intention to be a candidate as well, I have concluded that it is in the public interest to appoint a Special Counsel.
WTF?
Why would that be THE PRIMARY REASON for such an investigation, which is ALREADY "ONGOING" ???
This does not include prosecutions that are currently pending in the District of Columbia, or future investigations and prosecutions of individuals for offenses committed while they were physically present on the Capitol grounds on January 6. Those investigations and prosecutions will remain under the authority of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia.
It looks like (a) they already have investigations into these things, but (b) BECAUSE Trump has announed a run for election, AND (c) Biden wants to run, too (yeah, whatever), Garland is claiming that AN EXTRA INVESTIGATION needs to be done.
W.T.F.???
Thanks, Mike. Now we know for sure that you don't give a damn about election fraud.
Just like the other swamp rats.
One, did you notice that when the narrative was that Russia bombed Poland, nobody said it might be accidental. But when the narrative shifted to Ukraine did it, they jumped in with, "But it was by accident?"
Two, since when is a Soviet-era bomb used for anything meaningful? That's a bomb from more than 30 years ago. Ukraine has received billions from the US to buy the latest and best. Why would they be using the old stuff?
Well, if they wanted to do a FF, they would not want to use the good stuff. They would dust off the useless stuff and waste that.
Just sayin' ...
First, the 2022 election had plenty of election fraud. It needs to be exposed, and dealt with, obviously.
But that is not the only reason the election was not a Red Tsunami.
It was also the strike down of Roe v. Wade.
- Married men: 20 points for R's
- Married women: 14 points for R's
- Unmarried men: 7 points for R's
- Unmarried women: 37 points for D's
(Sauce: Jesse Kelly radio show)
Women are emotional, and that includes their voting. Unmarried women do not have a husband who might temper that emotion and get to some rational thought. Of course, some have boyfriends or other men in their life, but they went off the deep end when Roe v. Wade was overturned, and they believed the D's talking points about losing their rights. So, they voted hard left, based on abortion, everything else be damned.
If you had a choice between 2 possibilities, which would you choose:
- (1) R's have the House by 20 seats, and the Senate by a few seats, but not POTATUS and Roe v. Wade still stands, or
- (2) R's have the House by a few seats, not the Senate, not POTATUS, but Roe v. Wade is no more, and it is up to each State
Which would you rather have? Keep in mind, the current status of House/Senate is only for 2 more years. Dobbs will live on much longer.
The main reason so many here were disappointed by the election result was the big build up. I heard Newt Gingrich claim R's would roll with 50 seats gained in the House and 5 in the Senate. Many "pundits" made similar claims.
Expectations were built up, and then the result was not nearly that good.
Add in clear election fraud, especially in Arizona, and you have the doom feelings.
It is natural.
Second, Trump did the same thing. He built up expectations hugely by re-Truths of Q stuff. This increased expecations massively. It also got the DS all hot and bothered that they would have their opportunity to paint Trump as a "crazy conspiracy theorist."
They couldn't wait to cover his speech, LIVE!
But he didn't give it to them.
He was boring to us, but possibly a more "presidential tone" to others.
Announcing a run in 2024 this early puts him back on center stage. He now can resume a prime spot due to being the counter-Biden story.
And if one or more of the cases at the Supreme Court get any traction, who knows? Maybe that will be the avenue to get back in the White House in 2023.
If SCOTUS decides they are not willing to uphold their oaths of office, given clear and direct casework that demands their attention regarding election fraud, then that would be the final straw proving that the "courts cannot function." That could be entry for the military.
If (a big word) Trump is to be back in the White House prior to 2024, then it MUST be after January 20, 2023, so that he is eligible to run again in 2024. If not, then he runs in 2024, and we now have 2 years for the MAGA creator to constantly counter all the DS talking points.
Sure, he is not 100% what many of us want to see. Why does he so strongly support Israel? Does he not KNOW about USS Liberty and other crimes? Sure. But look at Kanye.
"Choose your battles" and "timing is everything" come to mind. This is especially true for a SHOWMAN, which is what Trump has been his entire life.
He LOVES the limelight. He has ALWAYS loved the limelight.
Last night, he walked back on stage.
Act I -- Show the world how corrupt the system is, and how good things can be when the corrupt are not running things
Act II -- Let the world see how bad things can get when Good is replaced with Evil, and the corrupt once again run things
Act III -- Let the world see that Good can overcome Evil, and justice can be served.
This is Act III.
But do YOUR part, too. Get involved in your LOCAL political scene. Even if it is showing up for school board meetings once a month, or city hall meetings now and again. Do SOMETHING to step away from the computer, and re-engage in YOUR community, the way it was always done, for thousands of years.
Learn about "Precinct Strategy" and get as involved as you can. If that only means helping someone with $10 per month, so be it. But DO something.
Act III is winner take all.
Opinions?
In light of Q post 4962, thought it would be a good idea to share my research over several years regarding the Federal Reserve (the "Endless" as Q says).
There is A LOT of misinformation out there about the Federal Reserve. Much of it comes from research done many decades ago, using information that was pulled from what was going on in the early days. But the structure has changed over the years, which means if you use those arguments today, normies will call you out on being wrong by pointing to open source info. And they will be right about you being wrong, but they will also be wrong.
It is important to understand the truth. This is the truth, as best as I can determine, and nobody has ever pointed out anything wrong in my analysis. So, here goes ...
-- Part 1 of 3 --
What is money
Money is a medium of exchange. Nothing more. Before money, we all bartered. I have 2 goats and you have 4 pairs of hand-made shoes. I will trade you, even up.
Barter is inefficient. You might not want my goats, and maybe we don't agree on what the true value of the exchange is.
So, it is easier if I trade my goats for gold and silver coin, and then trade you some of my gold and silver coin for your shoes.
Why gold and silver have been considered money for over 5,000 years
Other things have been money, as well. The Romans used salt. That's where the word "salary" comes from.
But gold and silver have properties that make them great candidates for money to be used as a medium of exchange: they are portable, difficult to damage, exposing them to rain and snow does nothing to them, they can be divided into smaller amounts, they are fungible (your 1 ounce gold coin is the same gold as anybody else's). I forget all the elements that economists use to figure out what makes the most sense as a medium of exchange, but gold and silver have them all.
Side note: Many people think gold and silver are basically the same, and that if the silver/gold price ratio changes and favors silver, then buy silver.
But that is wrong.
Gold and silver are similar, but not the same. Gold is primarily a monetary metal, and has minimal industrial use. Silver is primarily industrial, and has lesser monetary use. Gold is much more valuable, so it is easier to store large sums of monetary value with it than silver. US$100,000 of gold can be carried in about 50 ounces of gold (3 pounds), but the same value of silver would be over 100 pounds.
Using gold bullion (bars) is even more efficient because they can be in larger monetary amounts and easily stacked and stored.
So, silver as a money is useful for small exchanges of value, but not for anything large or for storing value.
What are the Money Changers
As useful as gold and silver are, they are cumbersome to carry around. It is easy for someone to rob you of your coins. You would not want to carry around all your wealth in gold and silver coin.
So, somebody came up with the idea of "money changing," which was the beginning of banking. You put your gold and silver coin in my bank, I will store it in a protected vault, and I will issue you paper certificates showing the value that you have on storage.
Then, you can exchange your pieces of paper with other people in commerce, rather than the coins themselves. This is so much more convenient and safe, that people jumped on board this new "technology" like a 12-year old girl takes to a new smartphone.
As long as the people running these banks (all private companies) are honest, it works out great. Anytime I want my gold and silver coin (or bullion) back, I just go to the bank and exchange my paper certificates, and get my hard stuff.
This also gave the bank a large amount of money to watch over, and as long as you didn't mind, some of it could be loaned out as loans to others, in exchange for interest paid -- some of it to the money changer, and the rest to the owner of the gold/silver.
Several hundred years ago, the English Church outlawed usury (the charging of interest), and if you were a Christian, you could not charge interest.
However, the jews did not have that limitation. This is the main reason why so many jews became bankers, and changed their names to Goldsmith and Silverstein.
What is Fractional Reserve Banking
The problem is some of these bankers -- and especially the jewish bankers -- were not honest. They printed extra paper certificates, for more than the gold and silver that was actually in the vault. But nobody knew this. As long as there was not a "run on the bank" so that everybody wanted their gold and silver at the same time, they could get away with this fraud. They could spend their paper certificates for the same value as you could, even though yours were backed by real gold/silver and theirs was just "printed paper" with nothing to back it.
This was the real beginning of the scam.
This is why the "money changers" are often considered crooks. If they didn't print extra paper not backed by gold/silver, it would have been fine. But they did print it up, and it evolved into the normal way of doing business.
Today, the US government is $31 trillion in debt, in part due to this scheme.
What is a Trust versus a Corporation
Now, let's switch gears from money to legal business structures.
Today, we think of corporations as the normal way of doing business. But that is a recent development. Going back in history, individuals did business as sole proprietors, or joined with others in a partnership.
Somewhere in the 1500's, the English developed the use of trusts in more and more sophisticated ways.
This was out of necessity, as the various kings would send men off to war for the king, and then steal their property, especially if they died in war, leaving the man's family poor or even slaves (slavery existed and had primarily to do with punishment for crime and for the super poor).
So, men started creating trusts where the Church would be the trustee and hold their property (trusting them), to benefit their family if they did not come back from war.
Over time, this developed into using trusts in business, rather than sole proprietorship or partnerships.
If you have ever come across such terms as "business trust" or "common law trust" or "pure trust" it is because trusts were used as business structures. Corporations were not available to the common man.
The corporation was a special charter created by the king -- and ONLY the king. It offered limited liability to the investors in large projects, such as buying ships to explore the other side of the world.
Corporations were special charters created by the king, and trusts were used as business vehicles for everyone else.
America's first Central Bank - Why Alexander Hamilton is [their] hero
In 1791, the Bank of the United States was created to be the USA's central bank. Alexander Hamilton created it. This is why he is on the $10 bill. The criminal banksters love what he did to push a corrupt central bank on America.
What most people do not know is that the legal structure of the Bank of the United States was a trust, not a corporation. This is KEY to understanding a lot of things that would happen over time.
English law, which American law derived from, has hundreds of years of legal doctrines established. One of those was the "rule against perpetuities." This meant that a trust could not exist forever (like a modern day corporation can).
A trust could only exist for 21 years after the death of someone named in the trust. If you go back to the late 1800's and early 1900's and look at some of the business trust documents back then, you will find that they list dozens of individuals, including young children, so that the trust can last for 21 years after the death of the last surviving person listed.
But as a practical matter, business trusts were often just given a life of 20 years -- a nice, round number.
The Bank of the United States (a trust) had a life of 20 years, after which it would automatically expire and no longer exist.
That meant it would exist from 1791-1811, then would expire.
As 1811 approached, the banksters were in a panic to renew the central bank, to continue gaining control over the new American economy. But Thomas Jefferson was president until March 1809, and he was opposed to central banking.
He was followed by James Madison, who was a bit wishy washy on a lot of issues, but seems to have not been too enthusiastic at renewing the bank.
I believe this is why the British started the War of 1812. The banksters were beginning to loser their grip, so they went to war -- and lost. (Again)
America's second Central Bank - Why [they] hate Andrew Jackson
Although the British lost the War of 1812, they continued to push on the political side. The war ended in 1815, and they got their new Second Bank of the United States in 1816.
Madison had gone from opposing to supporting, and thus it came to be.
This, too, was in the legal form of a trust, with a life of 20 years. It would end in 1836.
Well, in 1836, Andrew Jackson was president, and he was an outspoken opponent of central banking.
Andrew Jackson ran for president with a big part of his platform being opposed to the banksters. He called them a "den of vipers."
They tried to assassinate him, and he told his VP it was the bankers who did it.
Once the second central bank's trust terminated, the USA was free of central banking for almost a century.
This was the most prosperous economic time in world history.
America's third Central Bank - The Federal Reserve
But they kept pushing for yet another central bank. I believe they tried to get one again in the late 1890's, but President McKinley stood in the way. He was assassinated.
By 1909, they had their man in the White House -- President Taft, an American traitor.
The banksters met at Jeckyll Island, Georgia in 1910. The legislation was written up, and the plan was put into action.
What happened in 1912
There were prominent businessmen tycoons who were opposed. They were invited to take a voyage on the greatest of new technology, the USS Titanic, and were lost at sea.
This set the stage for the criminal banksters to do their dirty work.
What happened in 1913
Sen. Nelson Aldrich, tied to the Rockefeller family, got the Federal Reserve Act passed the day before Christmas Eve, 1913.
This became the third central bank. It, too, was a trust, lasting 1913-1933.
What is the official narrative for why the Federal Reserve was established
The official reason given for creating a new central bank was to stop 3 problems that were pushed as the narrative as being very bad for Americans: depression/recession, bank failures, and inflation.
The inflation, recessions/depressions, and bank failures of the 1800's did occur, but because it was a true free market economy, they did not last long, and did not hurt most people.
All 3 of these reasons were a smoke screen. In fact, the worst depression ever was in the 1930's -- AFTER the central bank was established.
The worst banking crisis was in the 1980's with an entire sector (the savings and loan industry) going completely extinct -- AFTER the central bank was established.
The currency has been devalued over 90% since 1913, making inflation far worse now -- AFTER the central bank was established.
Their reasons were nonsense. But their lies worked in getting the legislation passed.
What is the REAL reason for why the Federal Reserve was established
The real reason to have a central bank is to steal the wealth of the masses, enrich the few insiders who run the central bank, and provide great wealth to be used in obtaining control of society, by buying politicians, businessmen, media, "scientists" (these days), etc. It is for wealth and power. Nothing more, nothing less.
The system is set up in such a way as to disguise its true purpose, and to hide the indi
Heard this from Jesse Kelly on the radio:
- Married men voted Republican by 20 points
- Married women voted Republican by 14 points
- Unmarried men voted Republican by 7 points
- Unmarried women voted Democrat by 37 points
My take: Cat lady was pissed at the Dobbs decision.
Overturning Roe v. Wade pushed a lot of those unmarried women to the polls to vote for the Dimwits.
Plus, election fraud, of course.
Consider where we are at today versus 1 year ago. In the past year, we have:
- Done away with the Covid face mask mandates
- Done away with the Covid vaxx mandates
- Done away with bad case law of Roe v. Wade, making it a state-by-state issue
- Taken control of the House of Reps
- Possibly will take control of the Senate
- If Kari Lake wins, she will become the new #1 governor in America, pushing the Patriot agenda
Sure, a massive win would have been better. The biggest disappointment to me is how stupid so many of my fellow citizens are, that they cannot see how their stupid political ideas lead to bad laws, which lead to bad outcomes for the very people who promote the stupid ideas -- inflation, crime, border invasion, all the things that come up in the polls as leading problems people want solved. Well, you ain't gonna solve them by pushing for the same ideas that created them.
Anyway, we have made some good improvements over the past year. So far, 2022 has been a year that Patriots are winning, not the criminal globalist scum.
Don't let up. Keep pushing to Make America Great Again.
(1) Widespread voter fraud
(2) Abortion issue
(3) Dumbed-down electorate that cannot figure out that the things they complain about are due to the people they have elected, who implement policies that result in the things they complain about
Until we have election integrity, we do not know how much #2 and #3 play a role. It seems like the pro-abortion people DO understand that electing certain people will result in certain results (Trump >> Supreme Court justices >> Following the Rule of Law, which libtards hate). So, #3 is a factor, but #2 goes counter to that idea.
So, focusing on election integrity should be top priority.
- Paper ballots
- No machines
- Tally at the local precinct level
- Audit trail
- One day for voting
- No mail-in ballots, except for military, disabled, and elderly
- Release all numbers at the same time, and within 2 hours of the polls closing
- Felony charges for election fraud
Only when we know for sure how people are voting can we deal with #2 and #3. Until then, it does not matter who votes or why. The only thing that matters is how the votes are counted.
