Yes it violated the Hastert Rule. It's not the first time this Speaker has done that, either.

I admit to not being very knowledgeable on this topic, but how on earth can the FTC "strike down" existing legal agreements between businesses? The FTC isn't a judicial body with power to strike down anything done between consenting parties during the course of business, especially retroactively. Declaring existing contract agreements null and void?? It seems the feds are now fully in "Constitution be damned, we'll do (say) whatever we want and hope it sticks" mode lately. Time must be getting short to something.

I don't doubt there's maybe a few people organically pushing more extreme POVs, but don't for a second think that the same provocateur playbook used by Antifa/LEO/FBI/.mil/Intel types during the Charlottesville marches, the Floyd BLM protests, 2020 election protests and the rest isn't also being used in these anti-war protests. The media and LEO, et al REQUIRE the presence of some bad actors to zoom in on in order to paint the 99% peaceful protestors as also being "violent extremists" or whatever label of the day, such as antisemitic in this case. Don't let partisan blinders fool ya into thinking they don't use the same playbook over and over to discredit protests and/or paint protestors as "bad" to the masses in the controlled media. Provocateurs aren't partisan.

Remember that the WEF Davos meeting a few months ago was centered around ramping up censorship and clamping down on speech. Ever since then, it's been bill after bill of this stuff. Heck, even some websites I frequent have turned ban-happy toward any post that even begins to be critical of Israel. It's interesting because it shows how almost fully their minions control damn near everything now. Even sites that it wasn't apparent, until now. FWIW, I still don't think it's permanent since Revelation, if one puts any credence in that, requires that the world turns on Israel eventually. In the meantime it appears to be pedal to the metal on censorship, though. eta: Speaking of Revelation, it's interesting to watch how the pushers of these measures are very publicly revealing themselves to be merely tools of other powers. The Great Revealing, indeed.

I came across his channel a couple months ago and basically binged on all of his videos. Very intelligent, accurate (imo and experience) and entertaining, also. Highly recommended channel for anyone wanting a better understanding of how the fairer sex thinks. Last I saw, he was working on a female perspective version with his girlfriend. I assume that's why he hasn't put out much content lately.

^^^^^^^^ hoe_math is an excellent channel.

This is starting to maybe be interesting. https://www.cnbc.com/2024/04/24/djt-trump-media-ceo-asks-house-gop-to-launch-stock-manipulation-probe.html If this gets legs it has big potential for spill over effects on GME and other "meme" stocks that have been infinitely naked shorted, as detailed by me in this thread.

I thought your counterpoint was plain and clear, as to a reason why dollar unit use is up. Rising DXY has shown it lately. DXY is merely a measure of supply and demand of a currency. What the chart doesn't account for is that gold is shooting up in tandem with the dollar, which is usually an inverse relationship. So what does Sowdry's chart, along with DXY rising -and- gold rising tell us? It tells us that a dwindling supply of dollars are being used to buy hard assets around the world. Aka dollar dumping.

OK, fess up, which one of you guys linked Donnie to this thread? https://www.cnbc.com/2024/04/19/trump-media-alerts-nasdaq-to-potential-market-manipulation-from-short-selling.html

Haha really? Tokenization of commodities (even real money in this case) by Blackrock is irrelevant to gold backed digital currency testbedding in Zimbabwe??????? Btw, I've seen the token called the (invader) Zim. Not sure where Zig comes from.

.....and these days procuring it will takes years off of it lol hoflation is a thing. The struggle is real. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=hoflation

Seems like markets know SHTF is soon. The DXY is mostly just a measure of supply and demand for the dollar. Lots of demand for dollars in order to convert (dump) them into hard assets like metals and real estate. Seeing them both rise quickly simultaneously is a really bad sign. The friday slam down of metals was entirely because of SLV and GLD going too high for Citadel's max pain options prices to handle. Citadel would have started a gamma squeeze on GLD and SLV if metals kept rising. The rise should resume this coming week and I wouldn't be surprised to see a +$100 on gold and +$2 on silver day to make up for the artificial slam down friday.

That reminds me of many moons ago at Christmas when RP quoted Upton Sinclair (iirc) during an interview when he was asked about Mike Huckabee, saying that when fascism comes it will be wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross.
