Gustav Klimt Field of poppies 1907 • Judge Dismisses DNC Suit Against Trump Campaign, Russia, WikiLeaks (Pol.) • Trump Wants To Rein In Intelli
[See the full post at: Debt Rattle July 31 2019]When did the comedy start?
I missed it……….
The Harlequin front and center.
The fall guy refusing to fall.
The clowns minus their outfits, makes them hard to identify.
The MSM running the Chinese firedrill.
The “intelligence” agencies run by twiddle de and twiddle dum; with the red queen entertained.
To those remaining with a fuctional brain; the world makes either complete sense or none at all…
I go with the latter…In Flander’s fields the poppies grow…
Judge said DNC “claims entirely divorced from the facts”.
That can’t be right. Nadler said they have proof on Trump corruption Six ways to Sunday. It’s just super-duper secret and they can’t tell us a single word of it.
“Trump Wants to Rein in Intelligence Agencies (R.)”
Like yesterday’s pic of Johnny boy, this is the epic battle. Someone is going to be taken out in a box, and somebody is going to be scattered to the winds. Either the people run the U.S., or the oligarchs and power-families do. Some progress has been made, but it won’t be enough when the people themselves are complicit.
“Trump’s Tax Returns Required Under New California Election Law (LAT)”
Not just overreach, imagine what happens when they use their precedent to find out how Pelosi became a billionaire on her 6-figure salary, and how Maxine Waters can afford multi-million dollar homes, and who Cuomo or Schumer know in NYC when they take 6-figure donations from Weinstein as a hunting license to rape any woman in the state. But: rules for thee and not for me! Pretty sure this is illegal by Supreme Court as the law outlines only two parameters for Presidency: age and “natural” citizenship.
“The Constitution is clear on the qualifications for someone to serve as president and states cannot add additional requirements on their own,” … The bill also violates the 1st Amendment right of association, since California can’t tell political parties which candidates their members can or cannot vote for.”
Actual journalism. Shocked. And the LATimes too. P.S. there’s essentially zero chance his taxes haven’t been accessed any of the 74,000 IRS employees – not to mention Cuomo calling down to the State Tax Office for a sneak peak. That means there’s nothing there.
“China Gathers Forces on Hong Kong Border Amid Unrest (ZH)”
They have issues, but I’d be shocked if the Anglos weren’t involved in this. It’d be the first time in 100 years. In full disclosure, this is exactly the kind of meddling China does to us by buying Clinton’s WTO access, Hunter Biden’s $1B loan, and Nancy Pelosi’s husband. That’s how the game goes, if you suffer fools and traitors and let them.
“German Prosecutors Charge Ex-VW Boss with Fraud (AFP)”
Synopsis: U.S. steals $33B from Germany in a pique over VW not cutting off Russian factory expansion. They do this over a fraud every car manufacturer does, including GM and Toyota, and HAS to do, since the emission requirements are unrelated to the physics of creating a viable car. You can of course just eliminate all the cars in your area like AOC suggests and watch the economy collapse and a million people starve. In fact that IS what they are doing, in U.K. and elsewhere, but very, very slowly. Enforcing these impossible regulations will just speed up the murder and destruction. To be positive, there are other solutions, and easy ones: Europe didn’t need this many cars in 1930 or 1950, and they can go back to that infrastructure model if they wish. They’re not. Neither will electric cars work with present technology, apart from leveling all Afghanistan in a quest for adequate lithium.
“Jeremy Corbyn’s Finest Hour? (Varoufakis)”
What the heck is a “Trump-deal Brexit?” A garden-variety smear, and disingenuine lie? Trump had nothing to do with Brexit, and has not commented except that we would cut a rapid trade deal when they could make one. We should, and if they go there, they’ll need one, because EU is going to play the spurned psychotic ex-wife and irrationally attack them however she can. Corbyn’s plan was the same as May’s: crush democracy and double-cross the referendum by leaving in name only, therefore turning Britain into an unvoting vassal state of an extractive and murderous EU. (Footnote Greece: Varoufakis may have heard of it. Is he just jealous that the U.K. got out and Greece didn’t?)
“Mess with Good Friday and We’ll Block UK Trade Deal, US Politicians Warn (G.)”
He doesn’t have to get it through Congress, treaties only have to pass the Senate, which is Republican. Do you think the GOP senate, to say nothing of the U.S., is going to sit around and laugh while Britain starves on behalf of the EU and tiny Ireland? Uh, no. The House can go pound sand. Nobody cares what they think. And just yesterday I suggested a bake sale to buy “The Guardian” a book on parliamentary law and process. Probably wouldn’t help though, unless it was a picture-book with tiny, tiny words.
“Dominic Cummings: Tories Do Not Care about Poor People or NHS (G.)”
As per yesterday, where they were changing labor law. Here’s the thing though: they DO care, they just have different style, different solution. The Labour method is to take money (which effectively comes from the people) to pay the people off in subsidies. In practice, that’s corrupt, wasteful, and fails miserably everywhere it’s tried, but it IS a plan. Conservatives, however, want to make the ECONOMY better, whereby people don’t need the government because they all have ordinary, organic jobs and can help themselves. Getting a man a job in a stronger nation IS caring about people – ESPECIALLY poor people, and communities, since the people and COMMUNITY can decide how to spend it, what they wish to do without government ordering them. In practice, this is corrupt, wasteful, and fails miserably as the rise in overall economic prosperity gives an edge to the 1%, but it IS a plan that DOES help the poor as well. Right now, Britain doesn’t have an economy AND they can’t give social support to the poor, because like all socialist nations, they’ve ruined the economy and are broke. That’s why the worst-plan-except-all-others, Capitalism, works better. But don’t say the Tories don’t care. That’s successful PR by Labour, and props to them for succeeding with it, but they have ALSO helped destroy Britain for a century. For example: what’s Corbyn done for anyone lately? What did Blair? A lot of blather about caring and feeling, getting into wars, while their cities and nation slowly collapsed, the people poorer than ever, just like the Democrats here.
Just talk? Loose accusations by me?
“for the first time in 100 years, Britons are dying earlier. The UK now has the worst health trends in Western Europe.”
Just like DNC cities here, and now all Red areas in the opioid push. Pretty sure there were Labour governments equal on while all this was happening. Left foot, Right foot, marching ever on.
“The Roman Republic fell, not because of the ambition of Caesar or Augustus, but because it had already long ceased to be in any real sense a republic at all. When the sturdy Roman plebeian, who lived by his own labor, who voted without reward according to his own convictions, and who with his fellows formed in war the terrible Roman legion, had been changed into an idle creature who craved nothing in life save the gratification of a thirst for vapid excitement, who was fed by the state, and directly or indirectly sold his vote to the highest bidder, then the end of the republic was at hand, and nothing could save it. The laws were the same as they had been, but the people behind the laws had changed, and so the laws counted for nothing.” -Teddy Roosevelt”
• Mess With Good Friday And We’ll Block UK Trade Deal, US Politicians Warn (G.)
We no longer have a country. We’re like Germany after the war, with others tearing of pieces and saying “that’s ours”. Ireland, the EU, USA, they all are making grabs. I suggest Scotland and Northern Ireland form a seperate country inside the EU, while England and Wales form one outside.
@V.Arnold. Thanks for looking at the Marianne Williamson candidacy announcement video I linked to last evening on yesterday’s blog post. I’m not so much advocating for her candidacy, and I know I don’t matter, but I observe that she is surfing the Zeitgeeist and historical trend-waves and she’s a righteous surfer. If you look at her, she knows the waters intimately and comfortably, and is on a third page, her own pagem not the Sanders/Warren page, nor the Bush/Clinton/Bush/Obama page that the other candidates seem to be wandering upon.
Marianne Williamson got the most Google searches in 49 states, not Wyoming. https://thehill.com/policy/technology/455465-marianne-williamson-most-searched-for-candidate-during-democratic-debate
Hollywood Reporter also notes that, but notes that Elizabeth Warren led in tweet activity. Holleywood Reporter used the goofiest screenshot of Williamson they could get, worth a thousand words as to their opinion. Register that, please. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/marianne-williamson-googled-candidate-second-democratic-debate-1228204Colbert likes Sanders and Warren, who were righteous, and had each other’s backs, Sanders as left-elder-statesman and Warren as inadequately-chained-junkyard-dog-attacking-thieves.
Stephen Colbert went after those long-shot candidates at the edges of the stage for inadvertently helping President Trump and Republicans make the case against the frontrunners who actually have a shot at winning the Democratic presidential nomination for 2020.
“It’s hard to sum up what happened tonight,” the Late Show host began. “But most of it was a bunch of guys with no chance to win the Democratic nomination yelling Republican talking points at the people who can. It was like watching the seven dwarves offering Snow White a poison apple.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/stephen-colbert-hits-longshot-democrats-for-spewing-republican-talking-points-at-cnn-debate?ref=scrollThe Guardian/US likes the sanders/Warren chained-together fight team, but fails to notice Willaimson.
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/jul/31/bernie-sanders-elizabeth-warren-democratic-debateIf I may add my assessment (yeah, I just did…) the main thing I looked for was comfort zone. Sanders was comfortable, fully assured as elder-statesman-llefty. Elizabeth Warren was as itching to eat-the-livers-of-global-capitalist-lackeys as anybody I have ever seen. She got a big smile on her face when they started talking, then relished the carnage of eating their flesh alive. (graphc?) Buttegieg did better than I expected. Others did not. They were either stressed out and showing it, on better drugs than you should take every day, or living in the Reagan era. Williamson clearly enjoyed what she was doing, and never paused for a moment to clearly expound her vision, nor did she blather and run over. She was the most-not-like-the-others, a BETTER disruptor than Trump, in my humble(ish) opinion.
Could be FUN!We have done some homework and written to our elected officials about the glyphosate the response was that it was reviewed and approved. below is a portion of the email and more information.
A personal solution
Because of the round up in everything, The factory farm system, The horror stories of the treatment and feeding of animals in the feed lots, the waste of transporting food across the world, antibiotics in meat and poultry and a variety of other reasons this last year we decided to purchase the vast majority of our food from local farms. It took some work to find the people that sell directly but they are out there. We found local sources of organic vegetables, beef, pork, eggs, fish. Some items are less and some are more but all in all we pay about 10% more. The food looks and tasted better. We could not be happier with this decision.Here is a portion of the email sent to our government officials. We are in a fishing community hence the ocean focus.
1. Glyphosate is a weed killer and is stronger when in the ocean
because it has a salt base. Plankton and coral reefs are the bottom
of the ocean ecological pyramid.,2. At the current time we are losing many species of plants animals
and insects. While Glyphosate may not be wholly responsible it at
least plays a role. .3. Glyphosate has now been found to be a cancer causing agent.
4. Five countries have already banned it to get ahead of future lawsuits.
Even Miami banned it. Miami for Gods sake !Here is some reading on the subject this is only a miniscule sampling
of the evidence and papers available.This is an excellent article that explains the miss from health Canada
Effect on Oceans:
Why is glyphosate’s run-off so deadly to our oceans? Glyphosate’s
half-life, or the rate at which it breaks down, is dramatically longer
in the ocean than in fresh water. This is because glyphosate is a salt
and in the presence of ocean salts it acts as a preservative. Even
worse, it gathers strength over time leading to massive plankton and
aquatic die-off. Unfortunately, this news is not being reported.
The studies say: “The half-life for glyphosate at 25°C in low-light
was 47 days, extending to 267 days in the dark at 25°C and 315 days in
the dark at 31°C, which is the longest persistence reported for this
herbicide.”for more information:

Caitlin Johnstone:
Night one of the CNN Democratic debates has come and gone, and if you missed it you didn’t miss much. Basically the entire thing can be summed up as Jake Tapper asking the progressives on stage, “So explain why Americans would vote for your policies when we here at CNN have been telling them for years that they’re not allowed to support those policies?” Then for balance they ask one of the boring centrist candidates to explain why Bernie Sanders is crazy. Repeat for two and a half hours…
This debate also saw Montana Governor Steve Bullock extolling the merits of keeping a nuclear first strike policy on the table for the United States. This man sincerely argued that it is good and right for the United States to be prepared to use nuclear weapons even when not attacked with nuclear force, and for other nuclear-armed nations to see this and know this. This is clearly an omnicidal, psychopathic position which threatens every organism on our planet, but today everyone’s talking about Marianne Williamson and energy crystals.
These people are freaks. If someone came into our world from a parallel universe where humanity is healthy, the least of their concerns on that stage would be the lady talking about love and slavery reparations.
If people could really see what’s happening in their nation and their world with fresh eyes, they’d scream in horror. But that’s the exact status quo that all these sane, normal, serious politicians have dedicated their lives to upholding. One where people are deliberately kept poor by a plutocratic class which understands that money is power and power is relative. One where the most powerful military force in history circles the globe and wages endless wars upon disobedient populations. One where we rip apart the flesh of our planet and dump poison into our air and our water in facilitation of a new mass extinction event which will someday claim our own species if not reversed. One where we point weapons at each other that can wipe out cities, cover the earth’s surface in nuclear radiation, and fill the sky with black soot blocking out the sun for decades, and we play with escalations toward the deployment of such weapons like it’s a game.
The only reason any of this seems normal to anyone is because the propagandists have normalized it. The only reason the politicians who help support this system seem normal to anyone is because the propagandists have normalized them.Conventional Politicians Are Infinitely Weirder Than Marianne Williamson
John Day — Thank you could not agree more. The world is Mad. I don’t want to sound like a broken record ( it is what we had before digital music and some us still use them) But I think it is important for Tulsi Gabbard to stay in the race as long as possible. She has been slammed by the MSM – even Google shut down her site during the debate when her anti war speech at the last debate garnered the most searches. I did not even notice her until the Military warmongers and both the liberal and conservative media started bashing her. That got my attention. I heard it again today on the CBS news how we have to protect Americas interest with a strong military. Colbert and the View both dismissed her in interviews that America just has to have endless wars. If we stick to our own knitting (another thing from before the internet) We could actually solve some of the problems that we have.
Western multinational corporations have a cozy relationship the military and intelligence communities. They work hand in glove to make the Atlantic Alliance the global financial center. Wall Street and City of London function to transfer money to the wealthy by offshoring, hording flight capital from the forever wars, promoting environmental exploitation, and cost cutting. Corporate media propaganda is central to keeping the ruling Davos Cabal in charge. Government and Democracy was downgraded to a secondary position to corporate greed. With elections still being held, laid off indebted Deplorables gave a big finger to their superiors and voted for Brexit and Donald Trump. The Elite are doing their best to regain control but they are so incompetent that Donald Trump remains in office and Boris Johnson just became PM. Also, to increase shareholder value, western corporations like the American and the UK governments have been hollowed out. Boeing, Purdue Pharma and Volkswagen cheated to keep selling more product. Nobody is told the truth. The only public support for the claim of Russian collusion in the 2016 election is the discredited British Intelligence’s Steele Dossier. The only hope for a peaceful future without predatory chaos is the restoration of Democracy and the jailing of corrupt criminals.
@V.Arnold. Thanks for looking at the Marianne Williamson candidacy announcement video I linked to last evening on yesterday’s blog post.

I do agree with you: Marianne Williamson is very impressive with a solid background going back decades. Her values are well established.
My cynicism is based on the reality of the deep state and the abject failure/corruption of democracy in the US.
I have no idea what Trump truly believes or wants; but he has been buggered at every turn when trying to back off warmongering.
Just what can a failed state do to turn things in a different direction?
I do not have a clue at this juncture…
Elections seem to no longer matter…Gabbard “bring them all home within a year” Stop regime change. Stop the endless wars. The only vet on the stage. She flustered Harris, and her quotes was repeated in the morning news cycle but interestingly her name was not mentioned . She is the one they do not want in office and they do not want her message out. I will look at Williamson — too many candidates. Elections are all we have the only other option is certainly much more unpleasant. So if corporations use the government to control the country is that not Fascism?
