Sandy Hook Was a Staged Media Hoax; Anderson Cooper Knows/Nose

THE KEY WORD IN GUN CONTROL IS " CONTROL".  THE LIBERALS WILL STAGE ANYTHING AND THE MUSLIMS WILL BE TOO DELIGHTED TO SEE AMERICA PROHIBIT THE PRIVATE OWNERSHIP OF FIREARMS.

As you may or may not know, I am a one-woman operation and I work 7 days per week and I've not had a full day off since January. Lately, I have have been too busy with family issues and business tasks, releasing my new film, to do due diligence on the recent Ferguson Massacre/travesty. The evidence being sent to me is increasingly proving that Ferguson is yet another fatal attack on the US populace by the current  Administration, of the best President that the US has ever had in the history of the US Presidency (maybe if I say that, I won't get in as much trouble in this outrageous Stasi State that America has become). I can't say any number of things, these days without being descended upon, like a ton of bricks by what can only be described as paid trolls of one stripe or another. You can call it collateral damage, from our beleaguered economy, or you can just call them scum-sucking pieces of sh!t. Until I've had the time to review the events at Ferguson, I will withhold all comment and instead, harken back to one of many recent false flag attacks on our shores, Sandy Hook, which has been extensively proven by MANY researchers to be a bogus, false flag. When the "events" at Sandy Hook took place in December 2012 and I dared to question the veracity of the reports, given the appallingly unprofessional "chroma key"/green screen FAIL by a supposedly professional CNN crew, who did not light Cooper properly to pull a successful key. The result was that Cooper's nose faded into the fake background, during his evidently bogus, "on-location" interview with the (crisis actor) mother of a "murdered child", at the "Connecticut funeral service." I was swiftly bulldozed by "outraged" people, exploding at me for my callousness. In fact, the reaction was so overwhelming, that I felt compelled to force-redirect the link that'd I'd sent to something less hard- hitting and to the point but still on-topic. All I can tell you for sure, from that particular footage, was that Cooper was NOT on location at the Connecticut funeral home. He was in the New York studio and his crew did a crappy lighting job. The troll assaults were successful at the time, as I was less used to them, so I went on to put my focus elsewhere, to avoid any more such unpleasantness. I can now smell a troll from a mile away now I don't give a damn about these basement-dwelling,  traitors/enemies of the REAL United States, of We The People - the pathetic minions of the Corporations which have run roughshod in their nearsighted destruction of their cash cow; causing the near-total destruction of everything that was good, that this country once stood for... The creator of this clip, has dug MUCH deeper into the Sandy Hook story and if you haven't seen it, it's definitely important and worth a look. Here are his comments: "I originally thought posting 3 videos on the Sandy Hook Hoax would be enough, but I found I needed to make one more!!  Make this go viral.  Copy it.  Link it.  Repost it.  Whatever.  This is a compilation of the latest and BEST evidence Sandy Hook was CLEARLY and OBVIOUSLY a Government sponsored Media Hoax. "I have already posted a 3-part video series, exposing the 10 major points which show that the Sandy Hook tragedy was a government false flag hoax.  How much was real and how much was fake remains to be seen. Did these children really die? Since this was a government- and media-sponsored hoax, it is certainly possible that these children did not actually die!!  "Because law enforcement, government officials, and both the mainstream and alternative medi a have NOW proven themselves to be untrustworthy con artists, we may never get to the whole truth of the matter."

Memphis: "I Expect The Re-Pricing Of The IQD To Be Coming Soon"

Memphis: "I Expect The Re-Pricing Of The IQD To Be Coming Soon"

Memphis Post Emailed To Recaps

Memphis  (Friday Night / Saturday Morning)  Today at 5:07 AM 

Being a rather extreme pragmatist I am doing just fine and in fact have been having moments of great excitement!  If you know me at all you know that I run from small mindedness and seek out the big picture in everything. 

On August11 I learned that Iraq had selected a seemingly nobody to be their next PM.  Who was this Mr. al-Abadi and why him? 

Before the hour had ended I found my answer, this 'nobody' had served as the president of Iraq's parliamentary finance committee from 2011-present.  My mind was doing cartwheels! 
~~~

  I immediately 'knew that I knew' that they were about to form their new gov't and that this man, this nobody, had been CHOSEN for the job by the same people who's own personal greed is the driving force behind this entire currency event. 

Many of you have been asking my opinion on Maliki, Shabibi, the 2014 budget, etc etc.  Do we really care?  Recognize when you are allowing others to drag you down to their perspective (I call this the weeds) and then remove yourself and climb back up where you belong as there can be no big answers found down there.

 I don't mean to appear short here, we can discuss these things til you all fall asleep and I am the last one standing but please get my point.  What value is there in it?  Does it add to our confidence?

I have no idea what the 'dinar world' has been saying these past weeks and nor have I cared as this is a matter that had to be worked out in MY mind for opinions mean nothing in building our confidence. 

I have not been shouting from the rooftops about my expectations for a few reasons:

1) there are so many voices already shouting that mine would mean nothing.  "just another opinion"

2) my personal life in August was far from normal.

3) I don't need to be popular and am not drawn to those who do.  When I have nothing to say, I say nothing.

4) In the final analysis who cares?  If right, then soon we will all be promoted and none of this past clamoring for fame will mean a thing.

I expect the re-pricing of the IQD to be coming soon and I share this for the following reason:

Be ready. 

The voices that are proclaiming that the sky is falling are hurting my ears.  In all your dealings be "above" this.  I have taken you on a journey this year that was designed to elevate in our thinking and then to ask questions always from this higher plane.

If I took a survey of some basic global discussions many of you would test higher that you would expect and THAT has been my aim.

 Is the USD destined to die this year? 

Is a bail-in type event a near term possibility for US banks? 

Are the BRICS in a hostile takeover of the world financial system? 

I have great confidence in the answers to these questions and the answers (not opinions) have all been shown repeatedly in my blogs.  The point here is that going forward? 

The answers to all of your biggest questions/concerns are knowable.  The deception at times runs quite deep but even that can be seen and properly factored for! 

We have before us no excuses but only opportunity.  When Rick Wiles interviewed Peter J. Daniels a few months ago he asked if the coming transfer of wealth in the world was coming into the hands of believers and Mr Daniels (without a moments hesitation) gave the most simple and perfect reply:

"Not if we don't take it!"

This sentence captures perfectly that which has been burning in my heart for nearly two years.  How blessed I am that God did not release this initial blessing to his people when I thought He should!  Shame on me. 

Is. 55:8,9 tells us to do what? 

In a Memphis paraphrase, we are to but....chill.

I am continuing to go deeper in my understanding of our world than I ever thought possible and yet my greatest enemy remains my own ignorance!   As we each go deeper?  We must not neglect to look to God for guidance for it is only He who can fill in these gaping holes (and much more!) with His Wisdom.

Current events could fill a novel so allow me to close with just a small snapshot of the western banking system.

Recently the big banks posted huge profits for 2nd qtr. 2014.  You may have missed the news tho that they did so with some clever accounting.  They cheated. 

Vast sums of money earmarked as reserves against potential losses were simply transferred to the other side of their balance sheet and counted as profit.  Such news ought to catch our attention guys as each day we see things playing out that will ultimately be paid for by the depositors. 

The regulators?  Those who should be minding the store?  They said it wasn't right for the banks to do this.  Yep, that's it.  Not even a slap on the wrist.

The article that follows is taken from ZeroHedge.com tonight and submitted by Simon Black, a guy I like.  Even Simon tho can mislead at times by omission as this quote illustrates:

"Even in the United States, renminbi payment business increased 327% last year!"

His above statement is true but he fails to tell the reader that China's currency is but a fraction of 1% in US trade settlement.  The transition away from the USD for trade settlement is a process and Simon knows this. 

Not trying to beat up on him here but to force us to ALWAYS ask questions from an informed position else we might be played for fools in the days ahead.

The other side of that coin, the use of the USD in reserves is separate and distinct from the discussion of settling trade.  90% of the style="display:none;">_s are used as reserve.  THIS is an important fact to remember. 

If the USD goes belly up before there is a new reserve set in place?  Then everybody loses and thus this seems unlikely to happen.

The topic of zero and even negative rates of return on deposits from the banks (did you see what the Dutch Central Bank did this week?) is a precursor to bigger events and a further example that deflation is to be the destroyer of economies. 

Add in the failed system of socialism, NSA spying, and sovereign debts never seen before, and the picture becomes clear to the informed that this cycle is entering it's last stages. 

The next few (3-5) years will bring many headlines and for those who will seize it, an opportunity that most generations never witness!

Everything That's Wrong With Banking Summed Up In One Bonehead Advertisement

Tyler Durden's picture

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 09/05/2014 21:00 -0400

Submitted by Simon Black via Sovereign Man blog [10],

If you’re looking around right now for a new bank account that pays a reasonable rate of return, ANZ bank has a hell of a deal for you: 0%!

That’s right. ANZ is offering its depositors absolutely zero interest. [11]

Now, a bank paying 0% isn’t exactly abnormal in today’s banking environment. But what’s really strange is that ANZ actually took out an ad in an Australian newspaper to advertise this.

Yesterday’s page 10 of the Australian Financial Review (AFR) had a quarter-page ad from ANZ boasting about 0% interest rates for accounts denominated in a number of foreign currencies, including Hong Kong dollars, Japanese yen, British pounds, and more.

Curiously, in order to qualify for this bargain 0% rate, you have to meet a rather significant deposit minimum.

For the 0% Japanese yen account, for example, you have to deposit 23.5 million yen (currently about $223,000 US dollars).

So basically some manager at ANZ actually thought that paying 0% interest on substantial account minimums would be an attractive offer… so attractive, in fact, that they should brag about it in the newspaper.

This is so completely ridiculous. But it really crystalizes what’s wrong with the entire financial system.

We’re told to keep our money in banks… that banks are safe. But the objective data tells a completely different story.

Holding money in most banks guarantees that you will lose money.

Adjusting for taxes and inflation, you’re losing at least 2% per year, even if you believe the governments’ notoriously understated official inflation statistics.

This level of absurdity pushes people into riskier and riskier assets, simply in an effort to avoid LOSING money.

Case in point - the government of Spain recently issued 1 BILLION euros worth of bonds that yield a paltry 4%. And they’re due in 2064.

Bear in mind, Spain is completely broke. And just two years ago the government had to pay 7.5% on ten year notes.

Now people are lending money to the Spanish government for 50 freaking years at just 4%.

This is insane.

But couldn’t this insanity last forever? Couldn’t the grand wizards of the financial system continue to engineer one deranged bailout after another for decades to come?

Possibly. But unlikely.

Right now the US dollar is the world’s dominant reserve currency. This gives the United States nearly total control of the global financial system.

In order to clear cross-border trade transactions, foreign banks HAVE to use the US banking system (which is controlled by the US government).

Further, the rest of the world must essentially mirror US Federal Reserve policy.

But this power… and insanity… only lasts as long as the US dollar is the dominant reserve currency. And this is starting to change rapidly.

China’s renminbi is becoming much more widely accepted around the world for trade settlement; a number of foreign governments are now holding renminbi reserves and doing deals to promote trade in renminbi.

Even in the United States, renminbi payment business increased 327% last year, and the US is now the fifth largest offshore renminbi settlement center.

It’s no secret here, this is happening right under our noses. The financial system IS changing.

People who ignore this trend do so at their own financial peril.

Yet those who understand what’s happening and align themselves accordingly stand to make fortunes.

The Weimar Republic’s episode with hyperinflation in the 1920s is a great example.

Despite all the warning signs, most people did nothing… and they got wiped out.

A handful of people, though, saw the writing on the wall. They took steps to safeguard what they had. And they allocated their investment capital to bet that the currency would collapse.

They were right. And vast fortunes were created in a matter of months.

Throughout history there’s always a handful of people ahead of the trend. And they’re rewarded for their foresight.

Right now we’re in the very early stages of a similar transition– arguably one of the most important economic transformations since the Industrial Revolution.

Because of this, opportunities already abound if you know where to look. It’s an incredibly exciting time to be alive.

Memphis   Part  2   Today  (Saturday)  at 3:18 PM 

In reflecting on last night's blog it seemed good to speak further to my concern about all the fear mongers that are roaming about. 

Also, there are several new names (friends from KTFA that you would quickly recognize!) on my mailing list and so for the benefit of all I am re sending my blog from 07/28 that attempts to answer some fears of the USD's soon demise.

"...we must separate the dollar into two primary categories – trade and reserve. They perform two distinct functions..."   ~ Martin Armstrong

There are entirely too many people crying the the sky is falling as they point at the USD.   I warned against this in May/June when so many "opportunists" were using the July01 roll-out of FATCA to scare folks that this was to be the death of the dollar.

I have received many questions about such characters, asking if I "follow" them or "endorse" them.   My general and all encompassing reply, actually more of a litmus test, is as follows:

Read the following glimpse into THE REAL WORLD courtesy of Mr. Armstrong and then ask yourself if such balanced perspective is being offered by any particular "financial expert" that you consider.  If no?  Proceed at your own risk.

The following is therefore a further example of how we stay grounded, maintaining our elevated perspective despite all the voices that would drag us down to their micro (spelled: small-minded) view of the world. 

I could likely convince you on most anything I choose if done in the micro but that would be deceitful as it is only in the larger view that we can have an honest discussion and be equipped to then make.....decisions.

Does the USD have an expiration date?  Yes it does but let's follow the real markers and then begin to lay down the stuff (can I say crap here) that we carry simply because so-and-so said it was important!  

The central planners are not flying blind here.  You think they do not recognize that FATCA and all other regulations are driving entire economies into the waiting arms of the BRICS?  [If you have yet to read Friday's newsletter RE: Are the BRICS Taking Over the World?  by JC Collins, it is important.]

Things are not so complicated as we are made to believe.  I daily see/hear what can only be called dis-information, things put out with the expressed purpose of making YOU chase your own tail.  It's a sick world!

As things develop (devolve) further and our legitimate concerns grow?  We can then act with confidence and make wise decisions to both preserve and grow what God has so richly blessed (entrusted) us with.

To share a favorite quote that I wish was mine:

"Better a year too early than a day too late."

Blessings, Memphis

Memphis note:  based on reports it appears that these "newsletters" are easily reaching several hundred people that I know nothing about. 

I hope these efforts to equip are being absorbed and received as intended, as a further "equipping of the saints", for that is my mission here. 

I guess my concern is that all might see the need as clearly as I do but I am certain that such concerns will vanish on the day after the re-pricing of the dinar for on THAT day many will awake and find themselves suddenly overwhelmed with clarity.

Killing the Dollar    Posted on  July 15, 2014 by Martin Armstrong

Dollar-Note

The recent attempts by the USA to impose huge fines on foreign banks for violating US sanctions with Iran based solely on transactions in dollars is having the same impact as FATCA. The US Justice banking penalties are becoming a threat to the dollar being used in such transactions.

While this is unlikely to cause the decline in the dollar as a reserve currency, for transactions, firms and banks are starting to plan to replace the US dollar as a trading currency.

This growing fear of the future penalties from the US authorities is starting the process in motion whereby we will eventually move to a new international reserve currency.

The efforts of Russia and China to establish trade in their currencies is interesting but not a threat to the reserve status of the dollar. That is separate and distinct from the trading status of the dollar.

One can trade in any currency, but where do you park money?

That can still only be the dollar where there is a deep market (reserve). So we must separate the dollar into these two primary categories – trade and reserve. They perform two distinct functions.

 The Euro never got off the ground as a reserve currency and is second to even the Chinese yuan in trade. Because the Euro would not create a consolidated debt, they prevented the second prong from forming – the place to park money.

You can conduct trade in yuan, but you cannot park trillions of dollars in yuan or rubles no less euros. So you trade in whatever you like, but you convert to dollars to bank it.

Major banks can switch out of dollars to for any transaction thereby avoiding US sanctions. After the transaction takes place, the parties can flip into dollars to park it. The US Justice Department will then be defeated [in their hunt for money].

Nevertheless, FATCA and the drive to punish foreign banks with billions in fines for acts outside the USA is creating the subtle shift toward a world currency at the reserve level for trade and parking.

This trend is in motion always. Whatever these people can do to serve their personal interests will set in motion the ultimate drive to a new world reserve currency that cannot be based upon any single nation.

NAZI Treason Escalates

by Tom Heneghan, International Intelligence Expert

UNITED States of America   -   It can now be reported that Congressman Mike Rogers, Republican of Michigan, and Senator Dianne Feinstein, Democrat of California, have conspired with the U.S. NSA and the U.S. Department of Justice to hide relevant evidence that proves abuse of the American People's Constitutional rights aka Section 215 of the totally UN-Constitutional BrushFRAUD era neo-Nazi Patriot Act.

In fact, Rogers co-sponsored legislation which covered up the phone dragnet against the American People in which members of Congress voted for FISA legislation that re-authorized the Patriot Act without certain members of Congress not realizing what they had just voted for.

ISIS remains a total U.S.-British Intelligence and NAZI Paperclip NSA creation funded by the Saudi Royal Family and crooked worldwide banks as to continue UN-Constitutional NAZI Paperclip occupation of the United States and allow algorithms and other NSA-type technology to manipulate world financial markets.

Patriot Act's absurd new spawn: Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse

Creative legal interpretations may now enable the government to sign off on things that will blow your mind

Marcy Wheeler

Congress may be preparing to reinforce two horrible FISA Court decisions and an abusive government search with no debate in the coming weeks: a decision to give national security orders unlimited breadth, one making it legal for the government to investigate Americans for activities protected under the First Amendment, and the FBI’s “back door” searches of Americans’ communication content collected under the FISA Amendment Act Section 702 authority.

On Tuesday, the ACLU and the Department of Justice argued about the legality of the NSA’s phone dragnet program before the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals in New York. Much of the discussion focused on the implications of the government’s theories that it can collect all phone records in the United States based on a claim they are “relevant” to standing terrorism investigations. “You can collect everything there is to know about everybody and have it all in one big government cloud,” said Judge Gerard Lynch, describing the implications of the government’s theories to Assistant Attorney General Stuart Delery.

But the ACLU and the government also engaged in an equally important debate — on whether the FISA Court’s interpretation of the word “relevant” overstepped Congress’ intent – focused on whether Congress had backed FISC’s definition of “relevant” by reauthorizing the Patriot Act twice.
The executive branch and the FISA Court have spent the last 15 months arguing that Congress “ratified” the expansive interpretations on which the phone dragnet program relies when it reauthorized the Patriot Act in 2010 and 2011 because, having been informed of the program, Congress extended the Patriot Act without changing that language. “When Congress reenacts a statute without change,” the administration said in a white paper on the phone dragnet in August 2013, ”it is presumed to have adopted the administrative or judicial interpretation of the statute if it is aware of the interpretation.” Three federal judges have bought that claim, relying on it to rule the program is legal.

The government’s claim with regards to past authorizations is terribly weak. There were at least six known instances where Congress did not get notice it should have; in several cases, those obligations were imposed by law. Perhaps the most important – in which House Intelligence Committee chairman Mike Rogers did not invite most congressmen to read notice of the dragnet provided to Congress in 2011 — means that 65 of the people who voted to reauthorize the Patriot Act in 2011 probably had had no way of learning about the phone dragnet. And, as the ACLU’s Alexander Abdo pointed out in Tuesday’s hearing, Congress couldn’t have been briefed on the legal analysis underlying the phone dragnet because the FISA Court never got around to writing an opinion on it until 2013, in response to the Snowden leaks.

The executive’s claim that Congress “ratified” the phone dragnet before the Snowden leaks — and therefore that the program currently complies with the intent of Congress — is farcical. And the judges on the panel — in addition to Lynch, fellow Democratic appointees Robert Sack and Vernon Broderick — seem skeptical of the government’s claim that secret briefings offered about an unannounced program can support a claim that Congress knowingly ratified the program.

So the government’s argument that the program is legal because Congress reauthorized the Patriot Act after the government started secretly using it to collect most phone records in the U.S. may fail to persuade the 2nd Circuit.

But that won’t be true going forward.

The government’s public release of numerous court opinions and other intelligence information over the last 15 months means no one in Congress can make a credible claim to be uninformed of the decisions underlying these parts of the government’s spying. In 2011, most members of Congress probably didn’t know the FISC had redefined the word “relevant” in a key Patriot Act definition to mean “everything,” but they should know that now. Yet none of the current proposals to reform the dragnet do anything about the definition of “relevant.” They limit collection of phone records in other ways, but would permit bulky collection under that “relevance” standard in a number of ways and by association using a number of statutes.

Thus, while the 2nd Circuit might rule the current dragnet illegal in part because the legal logic of it would permit the government to “collect everything there is to know about everybody,” if Congress passes the USA Freedom Act without changing that definition of “relevant,” it will be easier for the government to win this argument in the future.

Congressional passage of the USA Freedom Act with the existing language intact would also probably “ratify” two other intelligence community programs: first, a more recently released decision, a February 2013 opinion in which Judge John Bates ruled that prohibitions on using the Patriot Act to investigate Americans based solely on First Amendment-protected activities – such as political speech or religion — do not apply if associates of the targeted person are engaged in unprotected activities. Bates took language from Congress prohibiting the government from using Patriot authorities against Americans for nothing more than their speech and created a loophole allowing the government to do just that.

As Stanford law professor Jennifer Granick said in a post on this opinion, “Most people, when they cite [the] statutory language [from the Patriot Act], believe it means that Americans won’t be subjects of terrorism investigations for the First Amendment protected things they say or do.” But based on what we can see of Bates’ opinion, Granick continued, “They would be wrong.”

And while the language of the opinion pertains to a terrorism investigation, the novel interpretation of the phrase might now apply in other uses of Patriot authorities, such as counterintelligence investigations, which sometimes includes hacking or leak investigations. Behind a veil of secrecy, Bates and the government appear to have made it OK to investigate Americans for their free speech again.

In addition, the government has revealed the FBI conducts “back door” searches — warrantless searches on U.S. persons’ data collected under FISA Section 702 – even for “assessments” of counterterrorism investigations. The FBI keeps no records of such searches, presumably because it dictated for itself in 2011 it need not keep any records of assessments. As a result, it refuses to tell Congress how many Americans have been subjected to such warrantless searches.

In a letter released Wednesday, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper seemed to point to back door searches. He hailed Sen. Leahy’s version of the USA Freedom Act because it ”recognize[s] the technical limitations on our ability to report certain types of information.” The big topic the bill limited was FBI searches of 702 information. That suggests Clapper is pointing to Leahy’s exemption for FBI’s back door searches.

That would be particularly troubling given that back door searches are one area of particularly acute constitutional concern.

And if Congress doesn’t do anything about these issues, in the future the government will argue — more credibly, this time — that Congress signed off on these expansions of Executive authority.

Whether by passing USA Freedom Act this fall or by reauthorizing the Patriot Act next June, Congress is likely to extend the life of the Patriot Act. Given the absurd implications of some of the recently released FISC opinions, Congress would do well to redefine this language to reclaim the plain English meaning, contrary to FISC’s reinterpretations of it.

Thus far, however, they show no sign of doing so.
