BOEHNER PROFITS FROM OBAMACARE STOCKS

Medical, insurance investments continue to prosper

NEW YORK – Since the passage of Obamacare, House Speaker John Boehner has been dogged by critics pointing out his investment portfolio has benefited from owning insurance and medical company stocks that have profited from the legislation.

An analysis of Boehner’s current investment holdings includes a number of stocks benefiting from Obamacare in a total portfolio estimated at between $3.5 and $5 million in current market value.

Among Boehner’s current holdings are:

Boehner’s Obamacare-related investments trace back to 2009, when the Obama administration was pushing the Affordable Health Care Act through Congress.

Peter Schweizer, in his 2011 book on Washington corruption, “Throw Them All Out: How Politicians and Their Friends Get Rich Off Insider Stock Tips, Land Deals, and Cronyism that Would Send the Rest of Us to Prison,” noted on page 20: “Congressman John Boehner, who was leading the opposition to Obamacare in the House of Representatives, may have been fighting John Kerry on policy matters, but he was entirely allied with him when it came to investment decisions.”

Schweizer continued:

On December 10, 2008, Boehner bought numerous health insurance company stocks, including tens of thousands of dollars in Cardinal Health, Cigna, and Wellpoint. On the same day, Boehner purchased shares in the Big Pharm companies Amgen, Johnson & Johnson, Forest Labs, Covidien, and Pfizer. He also bought shares in CareFusion, which provides systems for countering infections. Just days later, on December 15, the Washington Post declared that the ‘public option’ was officially dead.

Schweitzer drew a causal link, noting that Boehner’s heavy investment in Obamacare stocks meant his political opposition to the legislation was undermined by his personal interest.

Schweizer concluded:

Health insurers breathed a sigh of relief. So too did pharmaceutical companies, who feared that a government health insurance program would lead to price controls. When Boehner bought Wellpoint stock on December 10, the price was about $56 a share. Within a month it was trading at $66 a share. Cardinal Health was up approximately 10 percent by the time President Obama signed the health care bill. In early 2010, Boehner bought yet more shares in Cardinal Health and Pfizer, before President Obama signed the health care bill.

Boehner has continued to profit from health-industry investments tracing back to 2009: Wellpoint Inc, which he bought at $56 a share, is now trading at $124.37. Cardinal Health, which he bought when it was trading at approximately $30 a share in 2011, is now trading at $80.44; and Pfizer which was trading at under $20 a share in 2010, is now at $31.06.

WND’s Joseph Farah has begun the grass-roots “Don’t Be Yellow: Dump Boehner Now!” campaign, which has already sent some 560,000 letters to House Republicans attempting to mobilize the palace coup.

In addition to the health-care stocks, Boehner’s investment portfolio includes several large insurance companies, including shares in John Hancock (bonds and notes), Travelers (stock), Prudential Financial (bonds and notes), Allstate (stock), AFLAC (bonds and notes) and MetLife (bonds and notes).

After public uproar over members of Congress being allowed to buy and sell investments based on insider information – a violation that could constitute criminal activity if done by members of the public – Congress passed the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act, which was signed into law by President Obama April 4, 2012.

Quietly, Congress passed and President Obama signed in April 2013 a new bill that indefinitely suspended the filing requirements of the STOCK Act for 28,000 executive-branch employees. The exemptions included senior executive service members working on the staff for members of the House and Senate. The bill opened up a back door to congressional staffers to engage once again in investment activities that for public investors would be grounds for possible criminal violations.

Prior to the passage of the STOCK Act, members of the House and Senate were exempt from SEC regulations on insider trading, allowing them to trade freely on privileged information obtained while conducting their official congressional activities.

Boehner has consistently maintained his investments are held in a blind trust and that he does not personally make investment decisions in his own investment portfolio. But few experienced congressional critics believe Boehner and other members of Congress are unaware of their investment holdings, because public disclosure requirements demand yearly filings of all investments.

WAKE UP PEOPLE - We are being duped again. Shills are covering it up. It surpasses 9/11! PLUME- GATE! FOIA Info

The conspiracy to cover-up the severity of the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster is real and the NRC FOIA documents show it. They contain damning emails that strongly suggest/"prove" that an official cover-up has been in effect since the very beginning. According to the author, "Historically speaking, Plume-Gate is the world’s largest, provable, cover-up and conspiracy. If
the Guinness Book of World Records considered ‘cover-up and conspiracy’ as a legitimate category, then certainly Plume-Gate would be at the very top of the list...above 9/11, above
Watergate, above Fast and Furious, above even the JFK assassination, and not just for the sheer size and s
cope of the conspiracy, not because of the many alphabet agencies involved, not because President Obama is implicated, not because it reveals the truth about nuclear power and
everything that goes with it, but because Plume-Gate is PROVABLE. And that proof is available to the public in the form of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s Freedom of Information
documents. The simple fact is: all one needs is the desire to know and the ability to read to familiarize oneself with this grandiose cover-up. I ask the parents of America, how much do you love your children? Do you love them enough to protect them from an immediate danger, a biting dog or perhaps a kidnapper? Of course you do. But then I must ask: why more do not join the fight to shut down nuclear power? Is it because the
danger is an unseen one? Is it because the danger is too great? Is it because the fight is too time consuming? Do they not understand the grave threat of nuclear power? Do they not know about the fallout from Plume-Gate and its consequences?"-Hatrick Penry

CONSPIRACY
PART 22

By Dennis L. Cuddy, Ph.D.
January 5, 2015
NewsWithViews.com

Jim was amazed that David Rockefeller admitted he was part of a "secret cabal" for "one world," and he wondered why the press/media had not picked up on this. I told Jim that David Brooks in THE NEW YORK TIMES had written a long book review about Rockefeller's book, but nowhere in it did he mention the "secret cabal" quote. I went on to say that I tried to get a USA TODAY reporter who had written about the Bushes and Skull & Bones to write about what Rockefeller had said, but he declined.

I explained to Jim that we have not really had an independent press for a long time, and I quoted John Swinton (editorial page editor of THE NEW YORK TIMES, 1860-1870) as saying to a gathering of journalists at the Twilight Club in New York City on April 12, 1883: "There is no such thing in America as an independent press, unless it is in the country towns. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dare to write his honest opinions, and if you did you know beforehand they would never appear in print....The business of the New York journalist is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vililfy. to fawn at the feet of Mammon....You know this an I know it, and what folly is this to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping-jacks; they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

Following this, I gave Jim 4 examples from the 20th century to back up my point. On February 9, 1917, U. S. Rep. Oscar Calloway inserted the following statement in the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD: "In March 1915 the J. P. Morgan interests, the steel, shipbuilding, and powder interests, and their subsidiary organizations got together 12 men high up in the newspaper world and employed them to select the most influential newspapers in the United States and sufficient number of them to control generally the policy of the daily press of the United States. These twelve men worked the problem out by selecting 179 newspapers, and then began, by an elimination process, to retain only those necessary for the purpose of controlling the general policy of the daily press throughout the country. They found it was only necessary to purchase the control of twenty-five of the greatest newspapers. The twenty-five papers were agreed upon; emissaries were sent to purchase the policy, national and international, of these papers; an agreement was reached; the policy of the papers was bought, to be paid for by the month; an editor was furnished for each paper to properly supervise and edit information...."

J. P. Morgan was the banker in the United States who was helping to facilitate Cecil Rhodes' secret Society of the Elect's plan to "take the government of the whole world." And Rhodes wanted to control four mail aspects of life---politics, economics, education, and journalism. Therefore, Morgan's takeover of the press in this country was toward the fulfillment of Rhodes' plan.

The second example was from Christopher Hobhouse's OXFORD AS IT WAS AND IS TODAY (1939), in which he revealed: "It is the Editor of THE (LONDON) TIMES and his circle of associates...(who) elect to consider themselves the powers behind the scenes. The duty of purveying honest news is elevated in their eyes into the prerogative of dictating opinion. It is at All Souls (College, Oxford University) that they meet to decide just how little they will let their readers know."

The third example is from Herman Dinsmore (foreign editor of THE NEW YORK TIMES from 1951 to 1960), who wrote in ALL THE NEWS THAT FITS (1969) THAT "THE NEW YORK TIMES today is deliberately pitched to the so-called liberal point of view....Positively and negatively, the weight of THE (NEW YOK) TIMES has generally fallen on the side of the communists since the end of World War II." Four years after Dinsmore's book was published, Power Elite member David Rockefeller in the August 10, 1973 NEW YORK TIMES wrote a glowing op-ed article praising the Communist dictator Chairman Mao, even after most people knew he had killed millions of his own innocent people.

Rockefeller was chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) from 1970 to 1985 and chairman emeritus since then. And, as example number four, in the October 30, 1993 edition of THE WASHINGTON POST, that newspaper's ombudsman, Richard Harwood, described the role of the CFR's press and media members in the following manner: "Their membership is an acknowledgment of their ascension into the American ruling class (where) they do not merely analyze and interpret foreign policy for the United States; they help make it."

Rockefeller once told Congressman William Dannemeyer that some men are born to rule, but most men are born to be ruled. Power Elite member Rockefeller was and is helping to facilitate fellow Power Elite member Cecil Rhodes' plan for world control, including the use of journalism via the journalists' CFR membership.

A 30-year-old Princeton graduate, who allegedly shot dead his multimillionaire hedge-funder father, was upset that his weekly allowance had been cut back, according to published reports.

Tommy Gilbert Jr, a former pupil of Manhattan's most prestigious private schools, was being questioned by police on Monday after 70-year-old Thomas Gilbert Sr, founder of $200 million hedge fund Wainscott Capital, was found with a gunshot wound to the head.

A source told the New York Daily News that Mr Gilbert Sr had cut back Tommy's weekly allowance to $300 and threatened to stop paying his rent.

Gilbert Jr lives in a one-bedroom apartment in Chelsea where, according to listings, guarantors were accepted on the $2,400-a-month rent.

The NYPD broke down the door of Gilbert Jr's West 18th St ground-floor apartment (pictured) to arrest him on Sunday. According to published news reports, Gilbert Jr had his allowance cut back by his father who was paying his $2,400-a-month rent

The Ivy Leaguer, who was a regular fixture at Manhattan's black-tie benefits with society beauties on his arm, reportedly slipped past the doorman and into his parents' building shortly before the attack at 3.30pm on Sunday.

According to The New York Post, Gilbert Jr went to his parents' eighth-floor apartment and asked his mother to leave to get him a sandwich.

The father and son were discussing 'differences in their relationship', according to The Wall Street Journal.

Gilbert Sr's wife Shelley, 67, found her husband dead in the bedroom within minutes of the alleged attack and called 911, police said.

According to a Daily News report, he had the gun on his chest in an alleged attempt to make it look like suicide.

Gilbert Jr was then seen walking out of the building in Manhattan's Turtle Bay area covering his face with a hoodie around 3.35pm, the New York Daily News reported.

The 30-year-old was found in his ground-floor apartment at 10.30pm on Sunday, after he fled from his parents' home in midtown, multiple media outlets claimed, citing police sources.

Police have detained Gilbert Jr after he allegedly barged into his father's bedroom with a gun. He was arrested on Sunday night at his home in Chelsea

Gilbert Jr is reportedly being held at the NYPD's 17th precinct in midtown Manhattan after being arrested on Sunday night at his home

Police recovered a Glock 22 .40-caliber handgun from the scene.

At 10.30pm on Sunday, Gilbert Jr was arrested without incident at his apartment after NYPD officers dressed in riot gear, chopped down the door and found him hiding inside.

He was taken to the 17th precinct in midtown.

Gilbert Jr was being questioned and has not been named a suspect, according to the NYPD. Police have not ruled out the possibility of suicide prior to a report from the city's medical examiner.

Shelley Gilbert, 67, made the 911 call after finding her husband with a gunshot wound to the head

The NYPD have not released details of a potential motive.

A spokesperson told Daily Mail Online on Monday that the investigation was ongoing.

Gilbert Jr had a lawyer and was refusing to speak to detectives. He was expected to be charged, The New York Post reported on Monday.

Thomas Gilbert Sr started Wainscott Capital in 2011, growing the fund to a value of $200 million.

He attended Princeton and Harvard Business School before a 40-year career on Wall Street. According to Wainscott Capital's website, he had extensive knowledge of the stock market, private equity, real estate and the fixed income market.

His son, Tommy Gilbert Jr, attended The Buckley school on Manhattan's Upper East Side from kindergarten until eighth grade. Tuition costs around $35,000 a year.

Noteable alumni of the school include actor James Harder, philanthropist David Rockefeller Jr and Robert Wagner, former deputy mayor of New York.

He then went on to the $50,000-a-year Deerfield Academy in Western Massachusetts, which counts the King of Jordan and Prince of Jordan among its alumni.

After graduating from Deerfield in 2003, Gilbert Jr accepted a place at Princeton University where he graduated in 2009.

A friend told Daily Mail Online on Monday: 'He was a really nice person. He was smart, athletic and he went to Princeton.

'He took some leave of absences from Princeton which is why it took him so long to graduate. He must have been really angry to do something so out-of-character.'

A classmate, who attended Deerfield with Gilbert Jr, also said: 'Tommy was my classmate. This story is an incomprehensible tragedy. My heart goes out to the entire Gilbert family.'

Details of Gilbert Jr's profession remain unclear but he was photographed on multiple occasions at black-tie society events.

The 30-year-old was pictured in March 2014 at the School of American Ballet's winter ball with Arielle Patrick, a 2012 Princeton grad, child of Manhattan private schools and now a PR director, who sources told the Daily Mail Online that he had dated.

Miss Patrick refused to confirm whether the pair had dated on Monday.

A fellow Princeton graduate told Daily Mail Online that Gilbert Jr was a 'highly disturbed individual'. Another friend told Today that 30-year-old Gilbert Jr had become 'volatile' in recent years.

Friends in the 30-year-old's circle told Daily Mail Online that he loved surfing, was 'handsome and nice' but extremely quiet and never talked.

The family property is a $6,000-a-month rental apartment at 20 Beekman Place on 50th Street, a few blocks north of the United Nations on the east side of Manhattan.

The building's porter told the New York Daily News that Gilbert Sr was 'friendly, very nice' and a 'gentleman'.

According to the paper, the son was spotted slipping past the doorman wearing a hoodie shortly before the attack.

'I immediately got a bad vibe,' the doorman told police, according to the Daily News. 'The kid got into the elevator before I got the chance to pick up the telephone.'

A neighbor, named as Bernard, said: 'Five minutes later he comes running out covering his face with a hoodie.'

Gilbert Sr also owns a $10 million property in the Hamptons which is listed for sale at $11.5million.

The 2.5 acre property has five bedrooms, four baths, a heated pool and screened in porch and sits in one of the area's most exclusive enclaves.

Thomas Gilbert Sr, 70, was found with a gunshot wound to the head at 3.30pm in his Beekman Place home on the east side of Manhattan. His son was arrested seven hours later after barricading himself in his home on West 18th Street

Wainscott Capital avoided losses which plagued other hedge funds in October last year, gaining 1.65 per cent that month.

In an interview with FINalternatives, Gilbert Sr attributed the success to their moderate risk profile.

'We’re not trying to beat all of the biotech funds, we’re basically trying to avoid drawdowns,' he said.

Named in the annual Who's Who In America list for five years running (1999-2004), Gilbert Sr started his career with a seven-year stint at Loeb Partners Corporation as managing director.
