Also, for a very good reading on Trump vs. Iran and the DC shenanigans that is well...DC this is a very good read from Lee Smith at Tablet: Small excerpt: The Pentagon’s counterterrorism efforts target Sunni terrorist groups while leaving similarly bloody, and much more dangerous, Iranian-allied Shia groups alone. In fact, the U.S. supports Iranian auxiliary forces in Lebanon and Iraq. The State Department’s state-building efforts in those countries support institutions under Iranian control. That is, even outside the parameters of the Iran deal, Washington has poured billions of dollars into initiatives that serve Iranian interests, while greasing the wheels of the Beltway’s bureaucratic machinery.
By crashing the JCPOA, Trump will be taking on European and Asian industry as well as the Beltway bureaucracy, led by the Pentagon and State Department—all interests with defenders on both sides of the aisle in Congress. Further, he will be doing so without any analogous constituency of his own, because it is very difficult to build a lobby for a policy that creates no jobs and throws off no money. Flogging the JCPOA to death means pulling the plug. It also means Trump is going to have very few allies, at home or abroad. Another important piece of demythologizing involves the nature of the Obama administration’s negotiations with Iran. Like the domestic fight over the deal, the negotiations, too, were largely smoke and mirrors. The JCPOA was never about preventing Iran from getting a bomb. Rather, it was about offering incentives that would convince Iran to hold off building a bomb until Obama left office. Proof is in the JCPOA’s sunset provisions, restraints on Iran that are due to expire at various intervals, beginning in 2020. Obama simply kicked the can down the road and now the end of the road has started to appear on the horizon line. Seen from this perspective, Trump’s demands are not maximalist compared to the other even more extreme option—an expansionist regional power and state sponsor of international terror with a nuclear weapon. Something has to give. Trump’s counting on the fact it will be Iran, and that they’ll cave without an escalation that may wind up costing him support back home. |

Timing is key. Date of flight March 1, 2013. What was Microsoft doing then? Fighting the DOJ over an antitrust case. Antitrust is no-joke. DOJ can ultimately break up a company like it did to the Bells. On November 2, 2001, the DOJ reached an agreement with Microsoft to settle the case. The proposed settlement required Microsoft to share its application programming interfaces with third-party companies and appoint a panel of three people who would have full access to Microsoft's systems, records, and source code for five years in order to ensure compliance. However, the DOJ did not require Microsoft to change any of its code nor prevent Microsoft from tying other software with Windows in the future. On August 5, 2002, Microsoft announced that it would make some concessions towards the proposed final settlement ahead of the judge's verdict. On November 1, 2002, Judge Kollar-Kotelly released a judgment accepting most of the proposed DOJ settlement. Nine states (California, Connecticut, Iowa, Florida, Kansas, Minnesota, Utah, Virginia and Massachusetts) and the District of Columbia (which had been pursuing the case together with the DOJ) did not agree with the settlement, arguing that it did not go far enough to curb Microsoft's anti-competitive business practices. On June 30, 2004, the U.S. appeals court unanimously approved the settlement with the Justice Department, rejecting objections that the sanctions were inadequate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Microsoft_Corp. Gates was famously apolitical prior to the anti-trust suit. I think Gates was told to play ball or be ruined, and he did. Since the anti-trust suit he's been a loyal leftist. I wonder what he did on that island? - For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? View Quote Microsoft and the DOJ reached an initial settlement agreement on November 2, 2001. There were some issues and they continued to negotiate and made some concessions regarding the settlement. On June 30, 2004, the Court of Appeals approved the settlement. Then 9 years later Bill Gates flies on Epstein's plane. The anti-trust case was over and done with at that time so the contention that he was fighting with the DOJ is not true. I don't see any connection at all with the timing. |

You're right. I goofed with the timing. My brain saw "2003" rather than "2013." But I still suspect the two are related. Gates was very apolitical and Microsoft was basically the only huge company that didn't do any lobbying. Afterwards Gates learned his lesson and plays ball. But once you're in, you're in. So who knows. Maybe he developed a taste? Maybe you have to make so many appearances to avoid suspicion? Maybe it was unrelated entirely. Epstein was a money launderer as well. Maybe he was just getting advice on that. But the key is that everyone by that time in elite circles knew what was going on. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Steve Bannon's Warning On China (w/ Kyle Bass) | Real Vision Classics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qH5QzuzD01A View Quote Bannon and Bass both have deep understanding and recall of facts on China's takeover of the 'Davos/wall street crowd. Only sticking point I saw is Bannon's recommendation that the Chinese islands be given an ultimatum to evacuate in 72 hours or "we will shut them down for you" (possible misquote but general idea). He said this while claiming that we would not go "kinetic", how is that managed? I love this guy but he can have some very hawkish ideas. |

Naomi Campbell Get’s Eye of Rah shaped house / Island from Russian Billionaire
Naomi Campbell’s billionaire boyfriend re-defined what it means to protect. Incorporating the ancient Egyptian symbol of protection, royal power and good health to be the literal resting place his love can call home. Enchanting as the design is, the glass-domed house is also completely energy and water self-sufficient, featuring an amazing indoor landscape terrance and has no less than 25 bedrooms and five lounges. Much like the tale of Cleopatra and Anthony, Naomi and Vlad is a relationship between two powerful people. Yet unlike, the lovers who died together to stay together. Naomi and Vlad ended their 5-year relationship. Some say their relationship was like a business arrangement,”Naomi brought glamour to his hotels and properties, and he treated her extremely well. But their break-up isn’t without tragedy, when they officially broke up, the models Naomi had once introduced to the world, now set their eyes on Vlad. Rest assured though, the house is still hers, if only to remain a worthwhile piece of commission. |

Holy crap. Byrne is on Fox spilling a lot of juicy details to Martha McCallum related to the coup. Too much to summarize. Will look for a video link when it’s done.
Quoted:
https://video.foxbusiness.com/v/6075914613001/#sp=show-clips Byrne now says in 2015 and 2016 the FBI operation was part of a network of political surveillance being conducted by the FBI on presidential candidates.
Byrne names FBI Agent Peter Strzok as the person giving the instructions. Byrne names: Hillary Clinton, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and Donald Trump as the four candidates under FBI surveillance. Byrne claims he was offered a $1 billion bribe to keep his mouth shut. Byrne states he went to the DOJ in April 2019 (3rd – 10th), after Bill Barr was Attorney General, because he was informed that Barr was trustworthy and going to support. Byrne told the DOJ everything that was happening. After confiding with billionaire Warren Buffett, “my Rabbi” about his story, Patrick Byrne claims Buffett (a mentor and lose friend) gave him personal advice to distance himself from his company, Overstock Inc., because all of the DC interests would use his business to “grind him down”. In essence Byrne has been given advice about how the deep state will now target him personally. This is the reason why Byrne resigned as CEO of Overstock. Byrne now sees the deep divisions in the country as partly driven by this FBI operation which was political espionage. Byrne feels an obligation to share the truth in an effort to help the nation understand what was happening. Patrick Byrne is anticipating being an unavoidable public witness to testify as to the nature of the political surveillance and “political espionage” that was happening in 2015 and 2016, and his role therein. View Quote View Quote |

Holy jeebus christ BOOM. The CEO of Overstock.com was just on Fox. In a rambling, near half-hour interview sans commercial breaks, he said that Peter Strozk was his "handler" for his relationship with Maria Butina, the Russian NRA chick. Strozk, McCabe, and Comey allowed Butina to pal around with bigwig associates of T$, Cruz, and Rubio in order to get blackmail material on all of the candidates. Former acting AG Matthew Whitaker was on right afterward and said that John Durham has all the CEO's info regarding Butina.
I'll see if I can find a link. EDIT - I see @Torqued saw the same thing and posted the link. |
