Donald Trump’s foreign policy speech calling for peace and
cooperation with Russia and China outrages war mongers as Obama and Media
Whores dance on the grave of Democracy.
20 arrested at Trump ralley in Costa Mesa
Earlier this week Republican frontrunner Donald
Trump entered the danger zone. Trump made a speech on foreign policy to lay out what
foreign policy would look like in a Trump Administration. In his speech
Trump expressed the importance of working with Russia to fight our common enemy
ISIS and radical Islamists. In his
speech he said:
We desire to live peacefully and in friendship with Russia and
China. We have serious differences with these two nations, and must regard them
with open eyes, but we are not bound to be adversaries. We should seek common
ground based on shared interests.
“Russia, for instance, has also seen the horror of Islamic terrorism.
I believe an easing of tensions, and improved relations with Russia from a
position of strength not only is possible, absolutely possible. Common sense
says this cycle, this horrible cycle of hostility must end and ideally will end
soon. Good for both countries.
Some say the Russians won’t be reasonable. I intend to find out.
If we can’t make a deal under my administration, a deal that’s great — not
good, great — for America, but also good for Russia, then we will quickly walk
from the table. It’s as simple as that. We’re going to find out.
I will never send our finest into battle unless necessary, and I
mean absolutely necessary, and will only do so if we have a plan for victory
with a capital V.
As Donald Trump delivered those words of peace and
cooperation President Barack Obama was in Hanover, Germany for a mini war summit. Meeting with
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, British Prime Minister David Cameron, French
President Francois Hollande and Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, Obama
announced a significant escalation of American intervention in the Middle East,
particularly in Syria.
“Plan B” for Syria allows the CIA and Saudi
Arabia to funnel massive amounts of arms, including surface-to-air missiles
into the hands of the CIA trained “moderate” terrorists and Al Qaeda militias
to fight against Russia and remove elected Syrian President Assad.
Last month Military.com reported that militias
in Syria armed by the CIA were fighting against militias armed by the
Pentagon. For five years the Obama Administration has been training
and arming militias on both sides of the battle including ISIS. The
insanity continues to escalate in spite of $8.5 trillion dollars missing from the
Pentagon budget.
As Obama
and his millionaire congress cut social programs this congress has funded the
building of more nuclear delivery systems and more nuclear factories than any
other American president. Information
Clearing House reports the cost over 30 years is more than $1 trillion for
nuclear war heads alone.
In Ukraine the CIA coup orchestrated with the
assistance of Vice President Joe Biden and Victoria Nuland and their Nazi
cohorts, has left the country practically uninhabitable.
The U.S. military and NATO are surrounding
Russia with troops, tanks and weaponry deployed to Latvia, Lithuania and
Estonia.
While Obama and the CIA controlled media
ridiculed Trump’s foreign policy vision for America, his speech was warmly
welcomed in Moscow. After years of
the American media demonizing Putin and the Russian people there is finally a
light at the end of the tunnel, and it’s not an oncoming train.
But that light is quickly being
extinguished.
The White House Correspondents Dinner revealed
the unholy alliance between our millionaire owned media and the Executive
branch.
New York Times Magazine Correspondent Mark
Leibovich has said the Washington journalists have evolved into a “Celebrity
Class.” Responding to a question as to why the New York Times no longer
sends its correspondents to the dinner Leibovich replied:
“It did not feel like the right message to be sending to our
readers to really be, you know, in such a chummy in sort of festive setting
with the people we’re covering,” Leibovich added. He said that the rapid
expansion of wealth around D.C. is also “part of the disconnect” between the
Beltway media and the rest of the country.
In his foreign policy speech, Donald Trump also
spoke of “the disconnect” between Washington and the rest of the country:
NAFTA, as an example, has been a total disaster for the United
States and has emptied our states — literally emptied our states of our
manufacturing and our jobs. And I’ve just gotten to see it. I’ve toured
Pennsylvania. I’ve toured New York. I’ve toured so many of the states. They
have been cleaned out. Their manufacturing is gone.
Never again, only the reverse — and I have to say this strongly —
never again …
There will be consequences for the companies that leave the United
States only to exploit it later. They fire the people. They take advantage of
the United States. There will be consequences for those companies. Never again.
With those words Donald Trump entered the Danger
Zone. The CIA agitators have been unleashed to disrupt Trump rallies as
the war monger in Chief schmoozes with the presstitutes. Saturday Night
as the Obama’s tinderbox is on the brink of World War III, the war monger in
chief and the presstitutes danced the night away on the grave of democracy.
The CIA controls the duopoly in America and therefore
controls the delegates who appoint the nominees for President of the United
States of America. What is happening in
the 2016 election process is the unveiling of how dangerous and disgusting the
CIA controlled process has become.
World War III has begun, it began when the American
government was overthrown in 2000 and George W. Bush, son of George H.W. Bush
the 41st President of the United States and former Director of the
C.I.A. was installed as President. To
understand how we have come to this horrific point in time, one needs to review
where it began. From Sonic:

Summary Of The Bush Crime Family* History
The most blatant initial historical record is when Grandpa Prescott Bush and some of his cronies tried to entice General Smedley Butler to muster enough World War I veterans to take over the Presidency of The United States in 1933.
Then again, in 1942 (a year after the U.S. joined World War II), Prescott Bush and this same cabal -- in their drive toward fascism -- were finally forced by the "Trading With the Enemy Act" to terminate their extensive business dealings with Hitler.
After WWII, this American branch of the Nazis didn't lose the war, they just transformed the battleground. They expanded their "connections" with Hitler's intelligence networks from The War into the formation of our own CIA.
It is also this same group that President Eisenhower opaquely identified as the "Military Industrial Complex," in his dark farewell speech to us. Later, it was Poppy George H.W. Bush who sat on a boat (named Barbara) off-shore and directed the Cuban Bay Of Pigs fiasco.
As a direct consequence of that largely unsolicited action, John Kennedy banished him and his CIA brothers from his administration, albeit only temporarily, as George H.W. Bush, then an active CIA agent, was later photographed in Dealey Plaza that sunny November day in 1963.
From FDR to today, the Bush Crime Family and their fixated core of corporate fascists have, using unbridled corporate power, been tightening their grip on the throats of the American political, legal, economic and media systems…
That’s absolutely true, from FDR to today the Bush Crime Family and their corporate fascists have used unbridled corporate power to consolidate the media, courts, governorships in their hands. Henry Wallace Vice-President to FDR (1941-1945) warned America of the danger of American fascists:
Excerpt:
The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information. With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his group more money or more power…
American fascism will not be really dangerous until there is a purposeful coalition among the cartelists, the deliberate poisoners of public information, and those who stand for the K.K.K. type of demagoguery…
Fascism in the postwar inevitably will push steadily for Anglo-Saxon imperialism and eventually for war with Russia. Already American fascists are talking and writing about this conflict and using it as an excuse for their internal hatreds and intolerances toward certain races, creeds and classes.
Henry Wallace was America’s Nostradamus. Vice President Henry Wallace was one of the first casualties of the delegate process. So how did that happened to Vice President Henry Wallace? From Senate.gov:
Excerpt:
Prefaced by the stormy Democratic
nominating convention of 1940, the vice-presidency of Henry A. Wallace
concluded with the equally tempestuous 1944 convention. In 1940, when Vice
President John Nance Garner broke with President Franklin D. Roosevelt and
withdrew to Texas, Roosevelt designated Wallace as his running mate over the considerable objection of many
convention delegates.
When warned that the delegates
might revolt, Roosevelt made it clear that "they will go for Wallace or I
won't run, and you can jolly well tell them so." Party leaders reluctantly
capitulated to the president's demand and nominated Wallace, but the convention's mood was so sour that
Wallace decided not to make an acceptance speech…
Named a member of FDR's secret
"war cabinet," Wallace chaired
the Economic Defense Board, the Supply Priorities and Allocations Board, and
the Board of Economic Warfare. Journalists began to refer to him as
"Mr. Assistant President."
Divided into an Office of Imports, Office of Exports, and Office of War
Analysis, the Board of Economic Warfare (BEW) supported the Allied war
effort through procurement of strategic resources.
When Roosevelt signed an executive
order in April 1942 allowing the BEW to negotiate contracts with foreign
governments, Secretary Hull saw it as an attempt to create a second Department
of State.
Wallace's goals for social justice ran against the grain of Hull's
State Department policies. For instance, Wallace was firmly convinced that
the Latin American rubber supply could be increased dramatically if the living standards of that region's
rubber workers were raised to reduce the incidence of chronic malnutrition and
malaria.
He attempted to force negotiated
contracts to provide for socially
beneficial improvements to the Latin American infrastructure, with the
United States funding half the cost of these programs. Wallace's acquisition of executive authority had been unpopular with
the rank and file in Congress, and most members supported Hull, a
former senator, in his attacks on the BEW and its chairman.
A growing consensus that Wallace
had pushed a too active program in Latin America caused Roosevelt to issue
another executive order, which preserved
the State Department's monopoly on negotiations with foreign governments, a
blow aimed directly at Wallace's authority….
The BEW controversy climaxed in February 1943,
when Wallace tried to place the purchasing authority of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation (RFC) under the BEW's jurisdiction. An infuriated Commerce
Secretary Jesse Jones roundly denounced what he considered Wallace's arrogant
action.
When Wallace retaliated by accusing
Jones of delaying shipments of quinine to marines dying of malaria, the
imbroglio became too hot for Roosevelt to ignore. The embattled vice president wrote to the
president, asking for either complete vindication for his actions in the matter
or relief of his duties as chairman of the BEW. Roosevelt responded on July 15, 1943, by dissolving the BEW…
In 1943 Wallace made an official
tour of Costa Rica, Panama, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia. At every stop he took pains to meet the
common people and converse with them in their native tongue. He traveled
without a large entourage and refused to accept costly ceremonial gifts.
The images of bitter suffering and
poverty that he encountered in these underdeveloped countries convinced Wallace of the need for U.S.
humanitarian aid and strengthened his resolve to struggle for a lasting postwar
peace.
In 1944 the president asked Wallace
to make an even more ambitious and dangerous trip to China and the Soviet
Union. Historians continue to speculate on whether Roosevelt expected Wallace
to accomplish anything diplomatically or simply wanted the vice president out of the country while preparing to dump
him from the Democratic ticket…
Growing hostility between the executive branch and the conservatively
oriented Congress finally convinced FDR that Wallace had become an
expensive political liability…
Nonetheless, at the 1944 Democratic
convention in Chicago, Wallace showed surprising popularity among the
delegates, threatening to ruin the Democratic leadership's carefully
orchestrated plan to dump him. After his rousing speech, cheering delegates
began to shout for "Wallace in '44."
The convention chairman, Indiana
Senator Samuel D. Jackson, noted the crowd's enthusiasm and feared that Wallace
might win on the first ballot. He therefore called for an adjournment until the
next day… Although the nays drowned out
the ayes on the motion, the chairman declared the session adjourned.
The next day, the delegates
selected Senator Truman for vice president.
Jubilant Democratic leaders later boasted of their role in the affair.
Party chairman Hannegan told
friends that his epitaph should read, "Here lies the man who kept Henry
Wallace from being President of the United States…."
Eighty-two days after Wallace left
office as vice president, Franklin Roosevelt died, making Harry Truman
president. Truman's administration took
a decidedly hard-line turn against the Soviet Union, a policy that, coupled
with the increasing influence of conservatives in Truman's cabinet, confounded
and alienated Wallace…
In a speech at Madison Square
Garden in September 1946, Wallace warned
that American foreign policy towards Russia could lead to a third world war.
So Senator Truman was chosen as FDR’s Vice President against
the will of the delegates and the American people. And “Truman's administration took a decidedly hard-line turn against the
Soviet Union” who had been our ally. After
Truman assumed office of the Vice President, the plot to murder FDR was put in
motion. From Reformation.org:
Excerpt:
MI6 Planning For The Assassination Began In 1944
The planning for the assassination of President Roosevelt began at the 1944 Democratic National Convention held in Chicago, Illinois, from July 19–21. President Roosevelt was running for an unprecedented 4th term and his popular Vice President was Henry A. Wallace.
In April 1944, President Roosevelt was assigned a new doctor, a young Navy lieutenant named Dr. Howard Brueen.
It was very unusual that the President would be accompanied by a low ranking lieutenant. Obviously, skill in the use of poison was all that was necessary for Dr. Bruenn.
Roosevelt stayed away from the Convention because he was under tremendous pressure to get rid of his faithful Vice President and replace him with "Assistant President" Jimmy Byrnes. The President's wife Eleanor despised Jimmy Byrnes and the pushy Roman hierarchy so the tug of war was putting tremendous stress on the President.
MI6 agent Roaldl Dahl became a close "friend" of Henry Wallace. Unknown to Wallace, Dahl was spying on him and sending his private papers to Sir William Stephenson at 30 Rockefeller Plaza…
The British spy ring, led by Dahl, made sure that Wallace was not re-nominated for Vice President.
A ferocious fight broke out in Chicago between the supporters of Vice President Wallace and the supporters of Jimmy Byrnes. Everybody seemed to know that Roosevelt would not survive his 4th term so his Vice President would become President…
Jimmy Byrnes was one of the few people at the Convention who knew that a new deadly weapon called the atomic bomb was under development. This weapon could change the course of the war . . . and its sole possessor could rule the world unchallenged…
Truman came to the Convention as an ardent Byrnes supporter and he had no real Presidential ambitions....Commander-in-chief Roosevelt could not make a decision so Truman was nominated by default.
Having failed to gain the nomination, Jimmy Byrnes left the Convention in disgust....his Presidential ambitions were still very much alive . . . and there was another door to the Presidency: the office of Secretary of State.
Jimmy Byrnes became Truman's Secretary of State!!
Just 2 hours after the assassination, senator Harry Truman visited the White House to be sworn in as the new President.
By appointing Jimmy Byrnes as Secretary of State, Truman was putting his own life at risk. Here is the order of succession to the Presidency as it stood in 1945:
Act of 1792
Act of 1886
1. President.
1. President.
2. Vice President.
2. Vice President.
3. President Pro
Tempore of Senate.
3. Secretary of State.
4. Speaker of the
House.
4. Secretary of the
Treasury.
Truman realized right away that he
could be the next Presidential victim of the poison cup . . . so he called on
Congress to immediately change the law back to the original 1792 order of
succession.
Jimmy Byrnes totally dominated President Truman!!
Truman knew absolutely nothing about the atomic bomb . . . as
Roosevelt had failed completely to keep him in the loop…
In order to prevent President
Truman from meeting with the atomic scientists, he was sent out of the country
to Potsdam, Germany, to meet with Stalin and Churchill. Unlike Roosevelt, who
flew to his meetings, Truman left by
slow moving ship on July 6, and did not
return until August 7—the day after the bombing of Hiroshima…
Truman finally fired Jimmy Byrnes
in 1947
In January 1947, President Truman
took a momentous step and fired Jimmy Byrnes. Congress finally passed the
succession act in 1947, and this removed the Secretary of State from 3rd in
line for the Presidency:
By 1947, it was too late to bring
back the hundreds of thousands killed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Truman continued to be a puppet of the
British by allowing Churchill to start the Cold War and NATO (North Atlantic
Terrorist Organization)…
Truman finally fired Jimmy Byrnes in 1947 but that was after
the CIA had already been created. From
Hubpages:
Excerpt:
America's top detectives!
In 1946, the year after World War
Two ended, US president Harry Truman
created the director of central intelligence. The next year, the American
congress passed the National Security Act of 1947, which reorganized the
military branches and the intelligence community in the United States, and created the Central Intelligence Agency
(CIA).
Truman appointed the CIA's first Director and holds the record for
having the most number of CIA directors during his presidential term: four.
In an interview on Democracy Now with Amy Goodman, David Talbot discussed his new book The Devil’s
Chessboard claims that Alan Dulles, Eisenhower’s CIA Director, was
complicit in the CIA’s assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
Excerpt:
David Talbot, author of "The
Devil’s Chessboard: Allen Dulles, the CIA, and the Rise of America’s
Secret Government," re-examines what happened in Dallas on November 22,
1963, and looks at John F. Kennedy’s relationship with his former CIA director.
AMY GOODMAN: why Allen Dulles was fired by JFK?
DAVID TALBOT: Well, he was fired after the Bay of Pigs. Kennedy
realized he shouldn’t have kept Dulles on from the Eisenhower years. They were
philosophically too different. And the Bay of Pigs was the final straw for him.
So he was pushed out after that…
but Dulles … continued to sort of set up an anti-Kennedy government in
exile in his home in Georgetown. Many of the people he was meeting with,
several of the people, including Howard Hunt and others, later became figures
of suspicion during the House Select Committee on Assassination hearings in
Washington in the 1970s…
But the Congress reopened the
investigation into John Kennedy’s assassination, and they did determine he was killed as the result of a conspiracy.
"The weekend of Kennedy’s
assassination, Allen Dulles is not at home watching television like the rest of
America," Talbot said. "He’s at a remote CIA facility, two years after being pushed out of the agency by
Kennedy, called The Farm, in northern Virginia, that he used when he was
director of the CIA as a kind of an alternate command post..."
Well, he’s there while Kennedy is
killed, after Kennedy is killed, when Jack Ruby then kills Lee Harvey Oswald.
That whole fateful weekend, he’s hunkered down in a CIA command post. So, there
are many odd circumstances like this.
I also found out from interviewing
the children of another former CIA official that one of the key figures of
interest in the Kennedy assassination, a guy named William Harvey, who was head
of the CIA-Mafia plot against Castro and hated the Kennedys…
This is a remarkable sighting,
because to place someone like William Harvey, the head of the CIA’s assassination unit, put there by Allen Dulles,
in Dallas in November of '63 before the assassination is a very important
fact.
The latest news of the Cruz and Kasich campaigns colluding
to deny Trump the candidacy by divvying up the delegates in the upcoming states
has been overshadowed breaking news. Ted
Cruz’ father Rafael Cruz was a CIA agent and part of the Kennedy assassination
plot. From Reclaim our Republic:
Excerpt:
Rafael Cruz, A Pro-Batista, CIA Connected Cuban In Exile? Really Ted?
In an article written by David Zephyr, he has exposed the connection between Rafael Cruz the father of candidate Ted Cruz and the Bush oil connection… Interesting that Mr. Zephr has discovered the CIA connection that many of us have suspected of Rafael Cruz for a long time.
“I have written several DU’ers by private email over the last months about my research into Ted Cruz’s father’s inconsistent personal histories he has provided over the years. Rafael Cruz’s stories didn’t add up. Then there was the Dallas / New Orleans connection…and then Rafael’s fleeing to Canada and disappearing for years before returning to the US where his son wound up employed by the Bush Crime Family.
When I found the real timetable of Rafael’s actual where-about between New Orleans and Dallas though the rubble of his many lies about his past, I began to write emails to many knowledgeable about the assassination…
New Orleans was ground zero for the CIA’s Cuban manned “Operation Mongoose”, the Bay of Pigs and as we all know, the JFK Assassination… “It also seems that Cuban Rafael Cruz was also in Dallas, or nearby, the day of John Kennedy was assassinated.
“Rafael Cruz fled to Canada shortly after Kennedy’s assassination to work in the “oil business”. The oil business? Like Zapata Oil, the CIA front company run by George Herbert Walker Bush? Yeah, that oil business.
“Rafael Cruz returned to the United States after Nixon had been elected and the Bay of Pigs/JFK Assassination was put to rest for a while. He returned illegally to the United States with his son Rafael Eduardo “Ted” Cruz.
“Ted Cruz got connections into Princeton and Harvard and went to work directly for the Bush Family where he met his wife, Heidi Cruz, who was also working for the Bush Family.
“So how was it that Ted Cruz got right into the Bush Family Cabal so easily? His father, Rafael had favors to be paid back. Allen Dulles is long dead, but George Herbert Walker is still alive…and GHB knows Ted Cruz very, very well.
“Any surprise why Neil Bush is in Ted Cruz’s executive campaign inner circle?
My, my, my. Seems things have come full circle, the Bush Crime family’s plans to install Jeb into the White House was disrupted by Donald Trump. Trump, a millionaire like FDR and JFK can’t be bought off by the corporate fascists that Vice President Henry Wallace warned America about in 1943.
The CIA that the Bush Crime family and their cronies created in 1946, crafted in the image of Hitler’s Nazi’s is stronger than ever, but Trump has exposed the cockroaches and have an aversion to sunlight.
Will the American people stand down and allow the Bush Crime family and their CIA to install another offspring of CIA agents into the Presidency ensuring World War III? I guess we will have to wait and see if their CIA’s family tradition survives.
On Thursday April 14 Donald Trump spoke at the New York State
Republican Gala. The GOP candidate for
President gave the best speech of his 2016 campaign recalling Republican
President Gerald Ford and the GOP’s stance on a financially ailing New York
City in 1975, “Drop Dead.” From Bloomberg:
Excerpt:
Donald Trump Basks in Glow of New York Republicans
The brash billionaire was clearly enjoying himself at a GOP fundraiser just a mile south of his eponymous Trump Tower….
“It's great to be back in New York,” Trump told the audience of 800 guests at the $1,000-a-plate New York State Republican Gala at the Grand Hyatt hotel in Midtown Manhattan…
His 23-minute speech was packed with stories about his real estate ventures and what he described as his magic touch for succeeding where others had failed to rehabilitate a struggling city. He began in the mid-1970s, when the Grand Hyatt was built during a fiscal crisis.
“The city was dead,” Trump said, recalling the front page of the Daily News in 1975 that turned President Gerald Ford's refusal to send aid into an outrage: “FORD TO CITY: DROP DEAD…”
Gerald Ford the hapless Republican President came to office after Republican President Richard Nixon resigned rather than be impeached and prosecuted for massive corruption in the Executive Office.
Ford, a 25 year veteran Republican congressman from Michigan, became America’s first unelected President. Ford was first appointed to the Vice Presidency vacated by Nixon’s Veep Spiro Agnew who had resigned in disgrace after facing charges of accepting bribes and evading taxes. Ford’s first action as President was to pardon Richard Nixon ensuring he would never be prosecuted for his crimes.
In 1975 New York City was on the verge of financial collapse after years of war in Vietnam (1955-1975) and congressional and presidential impotence. From President Profiles:
Excerpt:
Adding to the controversies over both congressional and presidential impotence was the question about the looming financial default of New York City.
For eight months, the nation's most populous city, paying the price for attempting to cope with overwhelming economic and social forces, without budgetary discipline, stood at the brink of economic collapse. Only in later months did it become apparent that the New York predicament merely epitomized the problems faced by the nation's older urban centers…
… with default virtually a certainty, those with traditionally rural biases against big-city evils found satisfaction that, at last, the "chickens had come home to roost" because of "misguided liberalism…"
Ford's position was never a mystery. Yet, when he delivered a stern rebuke to the city on 29 October 1975, promising to veto any "bailout" of the nation's premier city, the finality of his statement came as a draconian blow.
That was 41 years ago, I guess the more things change the more they stay the same. Now in 2016 the GOP is saying to Puerto Rico “Drop Dead.” From New York Daily News:
Excerpt:
GOP to Puerto Rico's nearly bankrupt government: 'Drop dead'
Republican leaders in Congress told Puerto Rico’s nearly bankrupt government to drop dead on Tuesday.
Despite feverish efforts by the White House and congressional Democrats to insert a provision into the federal spending bill that would allow the Caribbean island territory to tackle its massive $72 billion debt through bankruptcy restructuring, top Republicans in the Senate scuttled it at the last minute.
“The hedge funds won, they got their way in Congress,” said Richard Ravitch, New York’s former lieutenant governor…
Puerto Rico governor Alejandro Garcia Padilla should tell Congress, bondholders and hedge funds: "Puerto Rico can't pay what it doesn't have."
Last week, it appeared that confrontation could be avoided. New York Sen. Chuck Schumer expressed optimism that a bipartisan compromise to aid Puerto Rico could be reached…
On Monday, Schumer and Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.) huddled late into the night with three top GOP leaders — Sens. Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Judiciary Committee; Orrin Hatch, chairman of the Finance Committee; and Lisa Murkowski, chairwoman of the Energy Committee — and their top aides to find common ground.
But Grassley was adamant, according to two participants in the meeting, that he didn’t want to extend municipal bankruptcy laws to Puerto Rico, a right the 50 states already have….
“The bottom line is that neither Chapter 9 (normal municipal bankruptcy) nor Super Chapter 9 (the territorial alternative) do anything to help Puerto Rico’s spending problems, which are the crux of the issue,” Foy said.
Why are the Republicans digging in their heels and refusing to bail out Puerto Rico? From Hedge Clippers:
Excerpt:
#HEDGEPAPERS NO. 26 – PUERTO RICO: PAIN AND PROFIT
As 2015 came to an end, there was much speculation about the January 1st deadline for Puerto Rico to pay its creditors…
To pay back its creditors, Puerto Rico has resorted to extreme measures including delaying tax refunds to its citizens,[4] increasing sales tax by more than 50%,[5] and instituting massive cuts to education, healthcare, and social services.
Unsurprisingly, Puerto Rico’s most disenfranchised populations (including Medicaid and Medicare enrollees, incarcerated people, and families with special needs children) are shouldering the burden of those measures.
The crisis is driving more Puerto Ricans off the island and onto the mainland, fueling an ongoing “population swap”[6] in which unemployed, young Puerto Ricans leave the island in search of work, while hundreds of wealthy Americans move onto to the island because the “Millionaire’s Law”[7]and other policies have turned it into a “fiscal paradise” for the wealthy….[8]
Meanwhile, wealthy financiers are flocking to the island to take advantage of tax exemptions and cuts on corporate taxes, personal income, and capital gains.[11]
At a recent investment conference, billionaire hedge fund manager John Paulson predicted Puerto Rico would become the “Singapore of the Caribbean”[12] –that is, an extremely wealthy tax haven.
This report details how, in order to pay back its creditors, the Puerto Rican government has implemented a severe austerity budget that is is creating a humanitarian crisis on the island and threatening Puerto Ricans’ access to basic services including healthcare, education, and even electricity.
Meanwhile, the hedge funds that reportedly own nearly 50% of Puerto Rico’s debt continue using vulture tactics to win as big a payday as possible at the expense of Puerto Ricans….[13]
Bingo, the GOP is telling Puerto Rico to “Drop Dead” so their hedge fund vultures can pick their bones clean and set up shop in a “fiscal paradise.” So is Puerto Rico’s Governor going to take the advice of Richard Ravitch and tell the hedge funds who own nearly 50% of their debt "Puerto Rico can't pay what it doesn't have?" I guess so.
The GOP is pulling every dirty trick in the book to deny the
American people the right to choose their presidential candidates. They are trying to shoe horn in Ted Cruz with
parlor tricks designed to steal delegates from Donald Trump.
Cruz, the unnatural born American citizen has judge shopped
around and found a New Jersey Judge to declare him a “natural born American
citizen” eligible to be President of the United States. The case will go to the Supreme Court for
final determination. From WEBCommentary:
Excerpt:
Judge Masin Cannot Make Ted Cruz a Natural Born US Citizen
"A New Jersey judge has declared Sen. Ted Cruz is constitutionally eligible to be president of the United States….
Judge Masin relied on a 1898 Supreme Court Wong Kim Ark, in which the Fourteenth Amendment and English common law resulted in a determination that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States."
However, the Constitution distinguishes between United States citizens and natural born United States citizens.
Law professor Victor Williams and others challenged Cruz’s certificate of eligibility to be on the New Jersey ballot.
They argued that Cruz’s Canadian birth certificate on public record "incontrovertibly proves, that he was, and is, a natural-born Canadian” and that "[i]t simply a physical impossibility for him to be both a natural-born Canadian and a natural-born American.”
Cruz's lawyers argued that it is “inconceivable that the Framers intended to exclude a U.S. citizen at birth from holding the office of president, simply because of where he or she happened to be born."
What IS inconceivable is that the Framers would have considered Cruz to be a natural born United Statesw citizen. They would not have considered him a United States citizen….
Politicians often try to be all things, but Cruz is not both a natural born and naturalized United States citizen and the Canadian citizenship which he did not renounce until after becoming the first Canadian elected to the United Statescitizen is the kind of problem the "natural born Citizen" requirement was included to avoid.
Judge Masin noted "that the parliamentary legislation recognized in Blackstone and presumably known to the founders that declared children born abroad to English-subject fathers to be natural born subjects did not provide that the children born abroad whose mother was the sole English subject parent were 'natural-born.'"
Judge Masin conceded that "an originalist interpretation 'would almost certainly' see the father-only distinction as one that the Supreme Court would today uphold."
Nevertheless, he opined: "such an outcome seems to be at complete odds with contemporary understandings of equal protection as it is hard to discern any rational basis that would favor the child of father over child of the mother…
That analysis is fundamentally flawed.
Judge Masin did not note it in his opinion, but It was not until 1934 that mothers were empowered to transmit United States citizen to their children." The "contemporary understandings of equal protection" relied upon by Judge Masin are not relevant to what "natural born Citizen"as used in the Constitution means.
No evidence is cited for the proposition that the Fourteenth Amendment was intended to change the understanding of what "natural born Citizen" as used in the Constitution meant, because the Fourteenth Amendment was NOT intended to amend the Constitution's"natural born Citizen requirement."
Accordingly, the Fourteenth Amendment should not be misused based on "contemporary understandings of equal protection."
Ha ha what a laugh. The Fourteenth Amendment that states that a child born in the United States, even if the parents aren’t citizens, is a natural born citizen has been attacked by the GOP for years. They have called these natural born citizens “anchor babies.” From NPR:
Excerpt:
The amendment, ratified more than
140 years ago, grants automatic citizenship to nearly any child born in the

drop and leave. To have a child in America, they cross the border, they go to
an emergency room, have a child and that child is automatically an American
citizen. That shouldn't be the case — that attracts people here for all the
wrong reasons."
Graham has been joined by other
leading Republicans, including Sen. John McCain of Arizona and Senate Minority
Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, in calling for Senate hearings on whether
changes to the 14th Amendment are needed….
Many refer to these children of
illegal immigrants as "anchor babies."
But now they claim that unnatural born Ted Cruz is a natural
born American because the Fourteenth Amendment changed the meaning of “natural
born.” What a joke.
At the Republican Gala in New York where Donald Trump
reminded New Yorkers that it was Republican
President Gerald Ford and the GOP who told New York City to “drop dead” in 1975,
Ted Cruz also gave a speech.
Excerpt:
Cruz got little reaction when he
opened his speech by saying, “I will tell you I haven’t built any buildings in
New York City, but I have spent my
entire life defending the Constitution of the United States.”
Several minutes into Cruz's speech,
many in the audience were flat-out ignoring him, conversing loudly at their
tables.
Trump is almost certain to crush
his rivals in the New York primary on Tuesday….
He’s polling at higher than 50 percent with GOP voters here, more than
30 points ahead of Kasich, who’s at 22 percent in the RealClearPolitics rolling
average of polls, and Cruz, who’s at 18 percent.
But instead of coasting to the
nomination on his victories in primaries and caucuses, Trump is scrambling to
build a competitive delegate-hunting machine by spending money and hiring fresh
national political talent.
Meanwhile, Cruz continues to shoehorn his most loyal supporters into delegate
slots, trying to increase the odds of a contested convention, his only
realistic chance of winning the nomination.
In 1975 the GOP said to New York “Drop Dead” but Donald
Trump took on the GOP and rebuilt New York into a prosperous thriving city that
is the envy of the world. In 2016 the
GOP is telling the Puerto Rican people “Drop Dead.” The GOP will do anything to stop Donald Trump
from rebuilding America.
Donald Trump has won millions more votes cast by the
American people than Cruz and Kasich combined.
The GOP is trying to deny Trump the candidacy based on delegate
votes. Delegate votes are cast by party
insiders to overturn the will of the voters.
If Trump is denied the nomination at the Republican convention
in Cleveland, he will run as a third party candidate. Then finally the American people can tell the
GOP “Drop Dead.”
The American Congress has been genetically engineered. This first generation of legislators created
in the laboratories of the Republican National Committee and Democratic National
Committee have taken control over the 2016 Presidential election.
The Zika virus is the result of these congressional mutations
allowing the introduction of genetically mutated mosquitoes into communities
without the knowledge of the citizens.
The morbidity and mortality wreaking havoc across the world are crimes
against humanity and the RNC and DNC should get the death penalty.
This genetically engineered congress has no heart, no soul
and no conscience. Paul Ryan, the
Republican Speaker of the House was raised in a laboratory run by the RNC in
Wisconsin. Ryan, programmed by the RNC
since birth, is famous for robotically regurgitating the RNC talking points,
specifically targeting retired people on Social Security and the poor and
infirmed.
Ryan calls the rich and powerful “the makers” and the poor
and middle class “the takers.” But what
do the makers make and what do the takers take?
The makers make chaos, misery and death and the takers are those who
have no choice but to take it.
GMO Mosquitoes In Florida: Mutant Bugs Could Come As Early As Spring,
But There’s No Reason To Freak Out
Health officials in Florida have
asked the federal Food and Drug
Administration to let them release millions
of genetically modified mosquitoes to target several mosquito-borne
diseases in the Florida Keys, but many residents there are wary of the eradication
program out of fear that the bioengineered bugs could be dangerous.
Scientists, however, have
maintained that the insects do not pose a threat to humans or the environment,
and are actually quite effective at preventing the spread of potentially deadly
viruses…
The company has a breeding lab in
Marathon in the Florida Keys. Local
officials in the Keys have been trying for the FDA’s approval for five
years to work with Oxitec.
The bioengineered mosquitoes, all
males, contain a so-called suicide gene
that they pass on to their offspring. The gene keeps the females from
reproducing, and eventually the population peters out.
Oxitec has already released their bioengineered male mosquitoes in
BRAZIL, the Cayman Islands and Malaysia, WITH PROMISING RESULTS.
So without the knowledge of the people of the United States,
elected leaders allowed Oxitec, a British chemical company, to produce millions
of mutant mosquitoes in a lab in Marathon, Florida for release into the Florida
Keys.
Oxitec claims these mutants are “safe” and “effective” but
are they? Let’s drill down into those
claims and dissect the handiwork of Oxitec.
In 2012 Dr. Mercola, a New York Times bestselling author published an
extraordinary article on Oxitec’s genetically engineered mosquitoes.
Excerpt:
Are Genetically Engineered Mosquitoes the Answer to Quell Dengue Fever?
Australian research scientists have developed a strategy for fighting Dengue fever, a viral disease spread by mosquitoes that affects more than 50 million people annually and causes fever and crippling joint and muscle pain—and in some cases even death.
A bacterium named Wolbachiapipientis naturally infects many insect species and has the ability to interfere with its host's reproductive ability in such a way that entire populations become infected within just a few generations. When Wolbachia infects mosquitoes, the mosquitoes' ability to transmit Dengue virus is almost completely blocked.
Researchers are encouraged that these bacterially infected mosquitoes are safe to humans and, once set loose, are capable of spreading on their own and overtaking the wild mosquito populations that transmit disease to humans.
In two northern Australian towns, between 10,000 and 20,000 of these infected mozzies were released ("mozzie" is Australian for mosquito), and wild mosquito infection rates neared 100 percent—meaning, mosquitoes that can infect humans were almost completely replaced by the ones that can't.
Wow, you mean to say that in 2012 Australian researchers have found a “natural” solution to getting rid of the Dengue fever and that is completely safe for humans? Why even bother with Oxitec and their expensive, dangerous “frankenskeeters.”
This approach is a change from the swarms of genetically engineered mosquitoesbeing bred by companies like Oxitec, a British biotechnology company that hasreleased millions of mutant mosquitoes into the fields of unsuspecting Australians…
These "frankenskeeters" represent a new and terrifying twist in potential GMO (genetically modified organisms) dangers—another product of modern science outpacing common sense when big money is thrown into the equation….
Are you serious?? Oxitec released untested, non-peer reviewed, experimental mutated mosquitoes on the public in Australia?
In the past, the best means for preventing the spread of Dengue involved sustainable, community-based, integrated mosquito control, with limited reliance on chemical insecticides.
However, new high-tech strategies are being developed to further combat the spread of this deadly virus. Some of these strategies involve genetically manipulating mosquitoesand then releasing them back into the wild, which can have any number of unforeseen consequences…
The scientific community has expressed concern about introducing a new type of mosquito that is infected with a bacterium that could be transmitted to humans. However, researchers claim Wolbachia bacterium is completely benign to humans.
Who are these “scientists” and why are they so concerned about humans being exposed to mosquitoes infected with natural bacterium?
One thing can be said for certain—this approach to combating Dengue fever renders all attempts at genetically engineered (transgenic) mosquitoes obsolete.
Bingo. But wait a minute, Oxitec had already released millions of their frankenskeeters in Australia without peer review and without the public’s knowledge. We don’t even know what the possible effects are. How could they do that?
Genetically Modified "Suicide Mosquitoes" Secretly Released in Grand Cayman Island
Can scientists simply release flying, human-biting genetically modified creatures into the air anytime they wish? Apparently, the answer to this question is "yes." And they have…
The genetically engineered bugs contain a gene that kills them unless they are given tetracycline, a common antibiotic…
The problem is, millions of these GE bugs have been released into the open air by Oxitecas a means of field-testing their new "Dengue-proof" mosquitoes,without sufficient review and public consultation. They have conveniently chosen several countries with weak regulations.
In 2009, Oxitec released their designer insects onto Grand Cayman Island, an island in the Caribbean… Once the locals got wind of this, they responded with a fair amount of public outrage—and rightly so! But it didn't stop there.
Oxitec subsequently released their frankenskeeters in Malaysia, Brazil, Panama, India, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. And they are seeking approval from the US Agriculture Department to perform similar open-air testing in the Florida Keys.
Oh my God, this is a nightmare. Do you know how many animals are treated with antibiotics? Do you know how much antibiotics are flushed down the toilet or released through urine into the water? Those “frankenskeeters” have the potential to breed a whole new nightmare.
Unfortunately, like so many other things, neither the government nor the biotech companies can offer peer-reviewed scientific proof of the safety of their biotechnology—they have blithely rushed ahead without any concern about the long-term effects.
ONCE RELEASED, THESE INSECTS CANNOT BE "RECALLED…"
So without any peer-reviewed scientific proof of their safety, four years ago millions of genetically engineered mosquitoes were released into the environment across the Americas.
Just as with genetically engineered (GE) foods, the long-term effects of GE insects are completely unknown—the Earth and its inhabitants are being used as a laboratory for grand scale genetic experiments. It's a blatant violation of human rights with regard to human experimentation.
The potential exists for these genes, which hop from one place to another, to infect human blood by finding entry through skin lesions or inhaled dust. Such transmission could potentially wreak havoc with the human genome by creating "insertion mutations" and other unpredictable types of DNA damage….
With tetracycline exposure (for example, in a lake) these mutant insects would actually thrive in the wild, potentially creating a nightmarish scenario.
The problem is that genetically modified female mosquitoes can still bite humans. This means the protein, which kills their own larvae, might be injected into humans when the mosquitoes suck their blood, with unknown and potentially ghoulish consequences…
For years, I've stated the belief that GMOs pose one of the greatest threats to life on the planet. Genetic engineering is NOT the safe and beneficial technology that it is touted to be.
Dr. Mercola warned about Oxitec’s genetically engineered mosquitoes and the potential ghoulish consequences. You know like microcephaly and Brazil is where they did their “field testing” so how did that turn out? From Reduas:
Excerpt:
REPORT from Physicians in the Crop-Sprayed Town regarding Dengue-Zika, microcephaly, and massive spraying with chemical poisons
Main points:
1-Dengue epidemic in Brazil persists endemically (on an ongoing basis) due to the marginalisation and misery of millions of people, especially in Northeast Brazil…
2. A dramatic increase of congenital malformations, especially microcephaly in newborns, was detected and quickly linked to the Zika virus by the Brazilian Ministry of Health.
However, they fail to recognise that in the area where most sick persons live, a chemical larvicide producing malformations in mosquitoes has been applied for 18 months…
3. Previous Zika epidemics did not cause birth defects in newborns, despite infecting 75% of the population in those countries. Also, in other countries such as Colombia there are no records of microcephaly; however, there are plenty of Zika cases.
4. The pyroproxyfen being used (as recommended by WHO) is manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical, a Japanese company associated with Monsanto in Latin America for weed control.
5. Brazilian doctors (Abrasco) are claiming that the strategy of chemical control is contaminating the environment as well as people…
6. Massive spreading using planes, as the governments of Mercosur are considering, is criminal, useless…
7. The last strategy deployed in Brazil, and which might be replicated in all our countries, is the use of GM mosquitoes —a total failure, except for the company supplying mosquitoes.
Wait a minute. Are you saying that in Colombia, where about 75% of the population is infected with the Zika virus, there are no cases of microcephaly? Well, well looky here. I just found this article in Technology Review:
Excerpt:
Bacteria-Laden Mosquitoes May Be the Cheapest Way to Stop Dengue and Zika
Some Latin American cities could soon begin releasing millions of mosquitoes developed with funding from Bill Gates.
The idea being promoted by Gates is to release mosquitoes infected with a bacterium, Wolbachia pipientis, that prevents them from transmitting viruses such as dengue or Zika when they bite people.
“It’s more economical than insecticides. I think this is the least expensive by an enormous difference.”
“We don’t have to keep injecting it after that—it’s inherited,” says Scott O’Neill, the insect expert at Monash University who leads the Gates dengue program. “We are projecting a cost of $1 a person to implement it in cities, because we only apply it once over a period of months and it sustains itself.”
Now America’s Food and Drug Administration wants to allow Oxitec to release millions of Frankenskeeters into the Florida Keys. The Food and Drug Administration has approved a myriad of genetically modified food against the will of the American people. In 2013 the RNC and DNC passed the Monsanto Protection Act. From Scientific American:
Excerpt:
Congress Just Gave Biotech Firms the Green Light to Ignore Court Orders
The law, nicknamed the "Monsanto Protection Act," exempts firms making genetically engineered seeds and crops from litigation.
The so-called Monsanto Protection Act is actually a provision (officially known as Section 735) within a recently passed Congressional spending bill, H.R. 933, which exempts biotech companies from litigation in regard to the making, selling and distribution of genetically engineered (GE) seeds and plants.
President Obama signed the bill and its controversial rider into law in March 2013 much to the dismay of environmentalists…
Critics point out that the company has spent decades stacking government agencies with its executives and directors. “Monsanto’s board members have worked for the EPA, advised the U.S. Department of Agriculture and served on President Obama’s Advisory Committee for Trade Policy and Negotiations,” reports the group Food & Water Watch.
Floridians have launched an effort to stop the release of Oxitec’s genetically engineered mosquitoes that have not only failed to stop dengue fever but actually proliferated the disease. The Oxitec genetically modified mosquitoes have mutated the Zika virus into a dangerous and fatal form causing morbidity and mortality in infants.
This genetically engineered congress has no heart, no soul and no conscience. Those GM mosquitoes may have already been released in Florida, in any case this congress doesn’t answer to the people. The RNC and DNC have already made clear, the people will not be choosing our next President they are.
The RNC and DNC must get the death penalty for crimes against humanity. In the meantime “the makers” are making genetically engineered morbidity and mortality while “the takers” are forced to take it.
