CBS Livestream of Trump's Minneapolis Rally Tonight

What happens if China becomes the next Cambridge Analytica? Make our Internet a national utility!

Enforcement against election fraud could be a lot easier.

I hope Senator Klobuchar gets a campaign bump

for what Minneapolis' Mayor Frey announced. She deserves it.

Guessing they might have planned the Trump rally payment announcement together.

Daniel Ellsberg: Ukraine Plot Shows Trump Now A 'Domestic Enemy' To The Constitution

Next Year's Recession Will Be Brought To Us by Vladimir Putin.

It's about Eurasian wealth vs Western wealth

First, to get the old news out of the way ...

-- no legitimate US banks have wanted to touch Trump for decades.
-- As Putin’s asset, Trump's massive money laundering, continued for years (probably not fully shown in his tax returns, either, but enough to add new articles of impeachment), will continue through other global banks as long as 45's moves keep to Putin's wealth war battle plan.
-- So 45, Wilbur Ross, McConnell and others have taken their cut while helping Putin's mafia launder his oil rouble.
— This is not about the “Democratic Primaries,” though it could help. This is less about politics, and more about humans' future.
— Climate doesn’t care.

Second, Putin's wealth war is on the West. His goal is to take the best and smash the rest.

Trump is one of his commanders running short plays; he's not a general who runs major game plans. He's a "need to know" guy, thus the frequent, secret calls and visits to leaders who hate being sidelined on the battleground.

Putin’s generals are located near global banks, extra-jurisdictional free ports of tangible "hedge wealth," and hybrid cyber command. Right now, they're running psyops and small insurgencies.

We see financials going down in not all, but important Western member countries. We see joblessness desperation high in many Western countries, not just America. American money disengages more from both 1st and 2nd tiers of our economy (unsure about financial centers like London and Hong Kong).

To Putin's generals, domestic politics attracts anxious publics toward noise -- race, rights, morality, surveillance, scandal, real and fake news, sports and apocalyptic dramas and documentaries, the drumbeat of tweets -- away from the signals of Putin’s destabilizations.

Not in all western countries, but enough to create mass anxiety, distrust in communications and governments. Whether the FBI’s foreign offices, under Chris Wray, might be misdirected by Wray to miss the big picture ... it's hard to know ... complicated by their oaths to the US Constitution.

We see that as long as the Saudi wealth world wants the West brought down for ideological reasons, it allies with Putin. For now. Muslim leaders know they’ll have to deal with Putin's anti-muslim ideology later; Israel sits tight, keeps intel score.

Again, one can see the wealthy of the West hunker down, disengage from market excitements, close off lending access for average folks, increase then hoard all the liquidity they can, to ride out US and EU government moves against Putin's march.

After the Western Recession hits in 2020; after controlling Ukraine, Iran, Syria and the Kurds, Putin's march moves toward Europe’s eastern buffer states. Vulnerable Western Europe man their stations. Control of Western communications and winning logistics take over from there. All that’s left is the Big Mop Up of fascist mafia governance and economics.

The War Plan:

Putin oil march —> Ukraine, Iran, Syria with US and Saudi help —> Putin Cyber Insurgencies
-->Wealth in the West Hunkers Down —> Putin Cyber Commands The West --> Putin Extorts Western Wealth Control Through Cyber-Shutdowns Of Essential Net Operations on Utilities —> Mop UP

The Counteroffensive:

New US and EU Forces (banking, corruption cleanup, trade, massive green projects, democratic voting and rule of law reforms) Push Back On Putin = Preserving the Petrodollar over the Rouble

Finally, winning 2020 might or might not win this "Putin vs West wealth war."

In 2020, if anyone has an economic and political plan to handle the upcoming Recession it will be Elizabeth Warren’s and Joe Biden’s.

If anyone can slow down or stop Putin’s moves, it will be “Big Picture Liz,” "Point Man Joe," and a Democratically controlled Senate.

Warren and Biden, to preserve the democratic way of life and business in the West, will
— "sell" the wealthy on the use of their hoarded wealth to literally fund this war or lose their wealth.
— Sell them on the fact that they all know where the best experts in the world are.
— Sell them on the fact that Putin cuts no win-win deals when he has land base and cyber control. He'll get their money. No use running or hiding.

Warren and Biden know the deal. They will ask :
"What’s it gonna be -- "Mafia rule or democratic rule?”
Which will you and your wealth not just feel, but BE safest under?

The West's wealthy will mobilize.

If they don't, Climate doesn’t even care that "winter is coming” for humans.

That’s the New news, like it or not.

Chief Justice Roberts, as presider over the Senate trial, NOT allow a motion to dismiss proceedings?

General Questions About The U.S. Senate Trial of Trump

Re the larger process, a lot of Senate trial details are up to Congress, but Congress is not letting the public know how the Senate will conduct that trial.

There's no public information on the procedure for
-- how the Chief Justice uses his role, and whether he decides how the trial is to be conducted
-- will the case be presented as The U.S. House of Representatives v. President Donald Trump?
-- will he allow the presentation the House's case, which can include evidence for the articles and argument for removal?
-- will he only allow the Articles and a vote?
-- will the vote for each Senator be public record?
-- will Justice Roberts sign and send the final decision in writing to the president?


If impeachment is political, is this trial NOT political?
-- How can Chief Justice Roberts advise on the votes?
Is the trial the constitutional equivalent of a real federal court room?
-- If so, can the House appeal the final Senate decision to the Supreme Court?
Does the Senate trial temporarily turn the Senate into the Third Branch?

Will Chief Justice Roberts actually address any of these questions to the American public?

Barr Pushes Facebook for Access to WhatsApp Messages

Source: New York Times

Companies should not deliberately design their systems to preclude any form of access to content even for preventing or investigating the most serious crimes,” Mr. Barr, joined by his British and Australian counterparts, wrote in a letter to Mr. Zuckerberg that was reviewed by The New York Times and dated Friday. BuzzFeed News first reported on the letter.

Tech company officials have said that strong encryption is necessary to protect legitimate users of their platforms all over the world, including journalists and government critics. Facebook respects the role of law enforcement but believes people have a right to communicate privately online, said Andy Stone, a company spokesman.

“End-to-end encryption already protects the messages of over a billion people every day,” Mr. Stone said. “We strongly oppose government attempts to build back doors because they would undermine the privacy and security of people everywhere.”

With 1.5 billion users, Facebook’s WhatsApp is perhaps the world’s most commonly used encrypted communications platform. Privacy experts and tech company officials said that creating a back door would effectively destroy the secrecy of such platforms.
