Somebody is lying (as if that's anything new in banking/finance). Russian spox said plainly that Saudi Arabia is part of BRICS then later walked it back. https://www.reuters.com/world/kremlin-rows-back-comments-saudi-brics-membership-2024-10-15/ Donnie threatens 100% tariffs on BRICS countries. This article is a skillful piece of work and doesn't mention SA as a BRICS member. It's kind of like they're either keeping it quiet for now OR the Saudis are having second thoughts. Strange times. They seem to be going to great lengths to keep the overall status of BRICS obscure. There's plenty of past reporting that BRICS is way more than 9 countries now. https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/30/trump-threatens-100percent-tariff-on-the-bric-bloc-of-nations-if-they-act-to-undermine-us-dollar.html

oh my, the drama! shall we tune in for the next episode? anybody got any bread for this circus? err sorry..... popcorn?

........iykyk.......

It's called Godwin's Law, yes? Please cite the origin of the phrase but don't use Google or other AI tools, or WIKI, to assist. eta: btw I changed my post signature for the first time in many years. perhaps read it.

Welcome, but don't get your hopes up too high if you're a young libertarian minded person. This used to be a libertarian forum but it's not really anymore, especially since Trump showed up and paid shills and bots started proliferating the internet. Use discernment and never blindly believe or follow anyone else's opinions. Think for yourself based on your experiences, your personal beliefs, your understanding of history (most of "history" taught and parroted to society is utter bullshit), etc, not what others try to convince you to believe. Not all is what it seems on RPF or the internet in general. There is a lot of fakery and social engineering around.

And I should rephrase my quoted post to "The power of sustained, repetitive propaganda from the black mirrors, in conjunction with the Hegelian Dialectic, sure is amazing." It's pretty simple. Turn off the tv, the phone and the computer, if you're not smart enough to realize that you're being manipulated. In other words, stop being gullible.

It sure feels weird on RPF these days. Stuff that we all were warning others about has or is coming to pass but now some are in favor of it? Will there be applause when "Papers Please" makes a comeback....cuz illegals, ya know? The power of sustained, repetitive propaganda from the black mirrors sure is amazing. We will see what happens but it's foolish to not at least notice and discuss the historical parallels that should be plain to everyone.

Ah yeah was the deVos lady last time as EdSec. I maintain that Linda's role in the cabinet is to train the new hires on the art of WWE scripted fakery for the masses.

https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Ferengi This thread tracks on many levels, PAF. Well done. Thiel's duper's delight smirk at 1:50 mark tells the tale. The irony is that he and the rest of the Paypal (papal) Mafia were handed the means in the first place, so Thiel acts like he hit a triple after being born on 3rd base.

oh no he "Heeds" from "the Wall Street"? sigh...sometimes it's too obvious.

The one between your ears. Perhaps the next 2 minutes of hate narrative being rolled out? Why else would someone (obvious J) with an overall small social media presence, 95% of which are probably fake bot accounts but a huge yt sub number that does not translate over to the rest of her social media presence, be boosted now? A quick glance at her history shows a quick boosting of profile in the last couple months. 22 linkedin connections, a few IG followers, yet 1 million subs on yt? Does not compute.

She was EdSec in his first go-round. The McMahons have large stakes in student loan servicing companies. Ahhh....short memories.

2.5mil to Thiel is like the change in your couch cushions. Anything resembling an uncontrolled movement must be co-opted by the money powers and Thiel got his foot in the door with Paul Inc, and Paul Inc (Benton, et al....he was recently sent to prison btw) taking most of that money and purposely trying to lose.

That didn't age well. Any way....... I'm shocked, shocked I tell you that there isn't a thread devoted to Donnie picking a gay Soros protege for TreasSec. eta: Oh yeah I forgot that it was Soros who bailed Donnie out on a real estate loan when Donnie was in danger of going bankrupt. I guess Giorgi is calling in his favor now. Could it be that Donnie has been working as a Soros puppet this entire time??? Interesting write-up on Bessent - seems he's an enigma of sorts - no one really knows what he's about https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/arts-letters/articles/the-george-soros-partner-who-disrupted-right-wing-publishing eta: RPF is behaving strangely, causing page timeouts and double posts and the like. No other website seems to be affected.

They're also announcing DOJ position nominations. Some of them are very cringeworthy. Should those be added to this thread also? Jay Clayton for Wall Street's top cop position - previously represented all the big banks against charges at Sulliivan and Cromwell (same firm that built then dismantled FtX massive fraud) and is currently a giant hedge fund board member https://www.axios.com/2024/11/14/trump-jay-clayton-prosecutorial-office Sounds legit.

Why wow? How does any of this surprise you?????

ROFL Palantir....libertarian? I can't believe people are still pushing this "Peter Thiel is a libertarian" garbage. Perhaps libertarian in a "fuck you, I'll do whatever I want so suck it" kind of way but certainly not a political ideology type libertarian. Political ideology libertarian means "do as you want but don't harm others". Thiel brazenly steals, buys politicians, funds lawsuits to bankrupt people who are critical of him or expose his dealings, etc.

for posterity: collinz original thread title: Sean Duffy to be Treasury Secretary under Trump the bill casey energy is strong in this thread. malfunction beavers and cherries....too easy.

well worth listening to if you want to know what they're going to do. whitney webb, catherine fitts, etc. https://unlimitedhangout.com/2024/08/resources/show-notes/using-bitcoin-and-stablecoins-to-expand-dollar-dominance-with-whitney-webb-and-mark-goodwin/ excellent companion article - selling treasury debt to stablecoin issuers to keep dollar debt afloat (as tether has been) as rest of world moves away from us debt and petrodollar system- definitely tracks with various market moves since the election https://unlimitedhangout.com/2024/07/investigative-reports/trump-embraces-the-bitcoin-dollar-stablecoins-to-entrench-us-financial-hegemony/ fwiw I do disagree with both item's assertions that the measures are to maintain dollar dominance. it looks more to me like just kicking the can a bit as dollar dominance continues to fade by using a stealth method to hold up artificial demand for us debt for a little while longer. the debt system is pretty much out of gas.

Probably but the interns don't know near as much as high iq revolutionaries do haha. I further edited my post you quoted so if you don't mind, please change your quote of my post to reflect my updated post above, on the off-chance that someone relevant happens to see it. TIA

I'd actually consider applying since I nerd out on that kind of stuff but who the hell has time to work 80 hours a week for free? May as well put a footnote saying "Only rich people with time to kill need apply. Insider trading knowledge of what gets cut will pay for you. As long as the SEC doesn't come after you". Add an ironclad insider trading exception and blanket immunity from any kind of enforcement related to the work and they'd probably get more interest. And no capital gains taxes on all trading activity during the duration of the Trump presidency. IOW, do as thou wilt while in their employ and for the duration of the changes being implemented.....

Of course. The shadow cabinet working against all of Trump's MAGA moves. The drama! The intrigue! The clickbait videos and links! How else are we going to get new versions of the 50 page "Fraud on the FISA Court" nonsense from the first term that amounted to precisely SQUAT. It's all so tiring watching the same old playbooks being run and nobody even notices.

Is anyone really surprised though that he's starting to walk back the campaign rhetoric? Honestly? My bet is he'll shift away from straight-up "Make American Healthy Again" to some version of "Let The Control Grid Pick And Choose What You Can And Can't Buy At The Store With Money On Elon's Chinese Superapp X". It's for your health, of course. Anybody want to take that bet? Yeah didnt think so.....

and just like that.... <forrest gump> all the constant woke propaganda posted by a few posters just stopped..... new 2 minutes of hate narratives incoming shortly. as soon as the controllers figure out what it is, prepackage it and send it out to be distributed for your hating pleasure.

Well shit, who the hell knows now. Here's RFK saying that he doesn't have a problem with fast food like McD's, just some ingredients they use. https://x.com/jatry_again/status/1851476616439898249 Next thing ya know he'll be saying seed oils are cool and never mentioning gmo soy and msg in everything.

I don't buy it. As such a health advocate or whatever, there's no way he's eating that trash. In the picture, pretty much none of it has been eaten or the boxes even opened. Even if fast food is part of campaigning, there's much better fast food options than McD's and KFC. If they really are eating that trash, it doesn't improve my confidence in them since even I know to avoid that trash at all costs and I don't have billions of dollars and foot soldiers to run around getting what I'd rather eat..... (I do suppose it's remotely possible that they either have untainted versions of the food since enough cash buys anything or the contents of the boxes are burgers and fries that are not McD's products, and the containers are just product placement props. Notice how Jr in the back is actively promoting the McD's box in the pic. "Make sure you go eat this trash since my gazillion shares of McD's stock needs your support". This whole production is one giant smoke-and-mirrors reality show and the performers laugh at how dumb the sheeple are for believing it. What the picture really shows are a group of crypto-J Jesuits with demonstrably far left political ideological histories laughing it up as the country runs around thinking they have a real choice in elections.)

The current choices are surely a shift from biz as usual! Oh wait.....you can have change and MAGA and all that, as long as Wall Street is in control of it all. Yawn. Of Lutnick or Bessett I guess Lutnick is a bit better. I've learned waaaay too much about how terrible hedge fund employees and execs are to ever want to see one as TreasSec. Hedge funds have been the exact opposite of anything resembling "MAGA". Pure thieves who are proud of their thievery. And there's something symbolic about appointing the CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald to TreasSec. CF sacrificed a ton of their own employees, including Lutnick's own brother, on 9/11/01 to kick off the "action" phase of the coup of America. A TreasSec to oversee the final days of American dollar dominance and use of the military to clear out the middle east, which 9/11 created the justification for. (it's entertaining reading the designated rpf spin doctors trying to make these cabinet pick turds shine like gold) ------------------------------

Eh, word is that Thomas bit on AgSec offer, which is mostly a powerless cabinet position, with future plans something like moving to Monsanto or Bill Gates foot soldier afterwards. I wonder how the passing of his wife has affected his decisions? AIPAC is dying to get him out of Congress.......they know he's today's RP who would continue to be re-elected and be a thorn in AIPAC's side if he stayed. AIPAC wants him memory-holed.

Knights Templar. Ive been tryin' to tell y'all what's really crack-a-lackin for years....end times fulfillment. CUFI.
