So You Think Trump Wants to Get Rid of the Fed?

Does Trump want to get rid of the Fed so we can return to the constitutional money system described in Point 2 below?

Trump may say that he wants to return to the gold standard; but the USMCA “Trade Agreement” he signed doesn’t do that. The Globalists’ Plan, which is advanced by USMCA, is to ratchet up the fiat “money” system created by the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, from a national to a global level with a central bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) managing and enforcing an international monetary system. And as Edwin Vieira, Ph.D., J.D., warned 8 years ago [here]:

“The true perversity of the present situation lies in the indication … that this scheme for a new supra-national monetary order will be sold to a doubting world by attaching some sort of “gold standard” to it….”…

As anyone who reads USMCA can see, the purpose of USMCA is to remove barriers to global regulation of all the areas covered by USMCA, and to advance development of a new global “money” system which will replace our collapsing Federal Reserve System.

Look at the Table of Contents for USMCA: All those areas: agriculture, textiles and apparel goods, customs administration, sanitary and phytosanitary measures, telecommunications, intellectual property (patents), labor (which includes immigration and gender & sexual orientation discrimination in the workplace), the environment, etc., are to be made subject to global regulation.

And we exchange our fiat “money” for the IMF’s fiat “money”; the United States loses control over our monetary system; and the IMF, instead of the Fed, will manage the new monetary system — and our economy…

When the Progressives took over our Country during the early 1900s, they needed lots of “money” to fund their unconstitutional regulatory and “welfare” schemes. But the federal government didn’t have enough gold and silver coins to fund the regulatory welfare state they wanted. So the Federal Reserve System was created in 1913 to set up a central bank — the “Fed” — which (thanks to fractional reserve banking) would have the power to supply the federal government with the “money” it wanted.

So it was access to this credit which enabled the federal government to exceed its constitutional limits.

With this easy credit, the federal government was enabled to “buy” the States by giving them fiat “money” to implement unconstitutional federal programs:

New York Times Kavanaugh Book Bombs, Just 3,120 Sold, Amazon Rank #6,795

The latest book on Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh, a critical biography from two New York Times reporters that made new sexual assault charges that were immediately undermined, has suffered an epic sales crash, according to publishing insiders.

Expected to sell at least 10,000-12,000 in the first two weeks and propel The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation onto the newspaper’s bestseller hardcover list, it has sold about a third of that in the first two weeks.

A publishing source provided the latest BookScan numbers, which can account for about 80% of sales. That number is 3,120. “If you add in ebooks — they may have sold a total of 4,000. That’s one of the most epic bombs in political publishing over the past decade,” said the source.

By comparison, another Kavanaugh book, Justice on Trial: The Kavanaugh Confirmation and the Future of the Supreme Court, which details the Democratic war on the Trump nominee, has sold 60,000 books and a total of 100,000 copies since its July 9 debut. It was written by Mollie Hemingway and Carrie Severino and published by Regnery.

4 NYC Homeless Men Brutally Murdered in ‘American Psycho’-Style Killings

Four homeless men were found murdered in Lower Manhattan Saturday morning. Police said the men were attacked and beaten to death, likely while they slept. A fifth man was found badly wounded, but alive.

Police discovered the first two victims after responding to a report of an assault in progress on Bowery Street near Doyers Street in Chinatown shortly before 2 am on Saturday morning, CNN reports.

The attacker fled as police approached, but officers soon found two men, both with severe head trauma after being bludgeoned with a bat or a pipe. One was pronounced dead at the scene. Another was taken to New York-Presbyterian Lower Manhattan Hospital.

A search of the area turned up three more victims with similar head trauma, all pronounced dead at the scene. Two of the men were discovered in front of a store on East Broadway, another was found across the street.

Police then spotted the suspected assailant — he was reportedly carrying a three-foot-long, blood-covered metal poll that he had apparently stolen from a construction site. The 24-year-old man was taken into custody, but police haven’t released his name, though they did say they believe the suspect is also homeless.

Appeals Court Upholds $130,000 Judgment Against Pomona College for Railroading Accused Student

Lawyers for “John Doe” wanted Pomona College to pay at least $250,000 in attorney’s fees for repeatedly violating its own policies to find the accused student responsible for sexual assault.

They got about half that from Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mary Strobel, who said Pomona’s conduct was so egregious that she couldn’t “conclude that the factual scenario was unique and unlikely to recur.” (Pomona attempted to retry Doe with the same approach Strobel struck down.)

The private college appealed. The result? More money for Doe.

Dirty Nancy Pelosi Visits South Carolina for Event — Massive Trump Crowd Greets Her on Street (Video)

Democrats want to impeach President Trump based on a total scam!

They’re trusting the liberal mainstream media to cover for them.

This is the definition of a coup.

Democrats are trying to remove a president while lying to the American people the entire time.

Rep. Adam Schiff and the Democrat mob are NOT sending actual subpoenas to the Trump people. They are sending letters.

Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi and the mob squad don’t want to do anything which is standard or legal process in this coup attempt.

That way the Republicans and the Trump people cannot defend themselves from the coup attempt or bring their own witnesses or counterarguments.

They are trusting the liberal media to co-conspirators in this lie.

Suicide and Murder — Side Effects of Medication

Violence, including suicide and homicide, is a serious side effect of at least 25 different psychiatric drugs, some of which are now given to young children, toddlers and even babies

According to a 2017 study,1 1 in 6 Americans between the ages of 18 and 85 were on psychiatric drugs in 2013, most of them antidepressants. Of them, 84.3% reported long-term use, and having filled three or more prescriptions during the study year.

Despite such pervasive antidepressant use, we’ve not seen any improvement in depression rates. On the contrary, it just seems to be getting worse, and the highest rates of depression are now reported among 18— to 25-year-olds.2

Suicide rates are at an all-time high as well. Statistics reveal suicide rates rose 31% between 2001 and 2017.3 In 2017, nearly 47,000 Americans committed suicide, making it the 10th most common cause of death that year.

While antidepressants are routinely used as a first-line treatment for depression, evidence suggests they cause more problems than they solve. Several studies have shown their effectiveness is on par with placebo,4,5 and some of the worst side effects have long been ignored, or worse, hidden.

Among them is the risk of violent acts against oneself and others. Research shows the proportion of adults taking at least one drug where suicide is a potential side effect hit 23.5% as of 2013, up from 17.3% in 2005,6,7 and 38.4% of American adults were in 2014 on one or more medications that can cause depression as a side effect.

Woman Patriot Taking on Pelosi for California Seat

Just as California seems to be taking its last breath, a possible woman Savior has suddenly appeared in the midst of the corrupt den of thieves. Yes, a woman, that I believe was nudged by God Himself, who has stepped up to the plate. DeAnna Lorraine, will rattle sabres with Nancy Pelosi in a contest for the office of Congresswoman in the State of California with the slogan; For God, Family and Country.

In a letter to fellow patriots, Ms. Lorraine stated: “Right now, Democrats led by Nancy Pelosi are working on their second coup attempt against President Trump.

“It’s time to get serious about throwing the radical leftists out of office, and trying them for TREASON against the United States. That’s why I’m running for Congress.

“Help me put these filthy cretins behind bars, where they belong. Help me fight the Swamp Monsters in Washington.

“Can you remember a time in our country’s history when the Democrats were so blinded by rage and hatred that they were willing to overthrow a duly elected President?

“Let’s be clear, Patriots. This “whistleblower” is not a whistleblower at all. It is a Deep State CIA agent who was sent into the White House to spy on President Trump, and then lied to the American public about the so-called Ukrainian “quid-pro-quo” phone call.

“Nancy Pelosi’s pal Adam Schiff then FABRICATED quotes from President Trump’s phone call to fool the American public further, and pretend that the call is grounds for the far-left’s impeachment inquiry.

“Democrats are using an American intelligence agency against a sitting President. That happens in third-world dictatorships, not here in America.

“I need you in my corner TODAY if we are going to retire Nancy Pelosi, stop the lawless Democrats from carrying out their coup, and march them out of Congress in handcuffs. As American Patriots, we need to put our foot down and tell the radical far-left that enough is enough.

“President Trump is working tirelessly on behalf of ALL Americans, and the elites in D.C. can’t stand it. That is why they are so hell-bent on his destruction.

“I want to go to Washington, D.C. to support President Trump, stand with him against the crazed Democrats, and finally serve justice to the far-left saboteurs.”

(ANSA) — Trieste, October 4 — Two police officers were shot dead in a firefight with two alleged robbers, a pair of brothers, at Trieste’s central police station on Friday.

The men died of their wounds in hospital.

Both men were said to be around 30.

Three other police were injured in the shootout, along with one of the alleged robbers.

None of these four men are said to be a in a life-threatening condition.

Italy: Bill to Give 16-Yr-Olds the Vote Coming Up — Di Maio

M5S will file constitutional bill in next few days

(ANSA) — Rome, October 1 — A bill to give 16-year-olds the vote is coming up, Foreign Minister and 5-Star Movement (M5S) chief Luigi Di Maio said Tuesday.

Italians currently qualify to vote for the House at 18 and the Senate at 25.

Di Maio said the M5S would present a constitutional bill to lower the age to 16 “in the next few days”.

Premier Giuseppe Conte and Di Maio said Monday that they were in favour of lowering the voting age to 16. “Lowering the voting threshold to 16 is fine by me,” said Conte.

“They already have it in other countries,” he said.

“We still haven’t started discussing it in the government but we could do: but it might be better to do it in parliament”.

Di Maio said via Facebook: “Giving the vote to 16-year-olds is a proposal that we have always been behind and which we support strongly”.

“In Italy young people are called choosy, spoilt, ‘Gretini’, (‘little Gretas’, referring to climate crisis activist Greta Thunberg).

“As far as we are concerned, these people should be respected, listened to and put at the centre of our political world. “If a 16-year-old can work and pay taxes, they should also have the right to vote and decide who makes decisions about their life”.

Italy: Tariffs Won’t Stop us Says Federalimentare

15% contraction in US export market

(ANSA) — Rome, October 3 — The head of Italian food group Federalimentare, Ivan Vacondio, said Thursday that new US tariffs of 25% on certain top exports like cheeses and spirits would not hurt its goal of exporting 50 billion euros in 2021.

“We remain optimistic and confident of reaching the objective of 50 billion euros in exports in 2021, provided that politicians play their part,” he said.

While not affecting exports as a whole, the tariffs will hit some top exports to the US, Vacondio said.

Last year alone Italy exported to the US 220 million euros’ worth of hard cheeses and 75 million in spirits.

Tariffs of 25% would mean a contraction on the US market of 15%, Vacondio said.

The government has vowed to help Italian exporters beat the new tariffs.

Italy: Don’t Mix Alitalia With Motorway Concessions — Conte

Atlantia threat to pull out unless concessions maintained

(ANSA) — Assisi, October 4 — Premier Giuseppe Conte said on Benneton holding company Atlantia’s reported threat to pull out of the Alitalia project unless the government promises not to strip it of its motorway concessions that the two issues should not be “mixed”.

“Alitalia is one issue, the motorway concessions are another,” he said.

“There should be no mixing”.

The government has said it will strip Atlantia of the motorway concessions because of its alleged failure to properly maintain Genoa’s Morandi Bridge which collapsed in August last year killing 43 people.

A consortium made up of rail group Ferrovie dello Stato (FS), Delta Airlines, motorway group Atlantia and the economy ministry was set to present a binding offer to take over ailing former flag carrier Alitalia.

Then Atlantia made a veiled threat to pull out citing the motorway issue.

The government issued a statement Thursday night saying it was “perplexed” by Atlantia’s new stance.

UK: ‘B*llocks to Brexit’ MP Fears Boris Calling State of Emergency to Deliver No Deal Brexit

Former Liberal Democrats leader Vince Cable has claimed Prime Minister Boris Johnson could declare a state of emergency to deliver a clean-break Brexit on October 31st.

The Benn Act prevents the prime minister taking the United Kingdom out of the EU without a deal unless he has the consent of Parliament. The law also forces Mr Johnson to ask Brussels for another Brexit delay if he is unable to pass an EU-approved exit treaty in the House of Commons by October 19th.

However, Mr Cable told POLITICO on Thursday: “My worry at the moment is that the government might try to fabricate an emergency situation as a pretext for pushing through changes around a no-deal Brexit that they otherwise cannot secure in parliament.”

For other people, you know, get into a negotiation and figure out whether you want to stay,” Clinton said when asked on ABC’s The View about her saying in a recent interview that her “gutsiest” decision was to stay married to Bill. “In my case, after really hard, hard thinking about it, counseling, praying, all the things that I did and that we went through, I just decided it was the right decision for me but that doesn’t mean it was an easy decision. It was a really hard decision.”

Clinton, 71, then continued by comparing her hard decision to parents deciding how to act when their kids tell them they are transgender.

“Hundreds” of people who believed they were transgender want to return to their birth sex, according to the founder of Britain’s new Detransition Advocacy Network.

28-year-old Charlie Evans, who lived as a male for almost ten years after transitioning in her teens, told Sky News that she had been contacted by “hundreds” of trans people who, like her, came to regret their decision.

UK: ‘Hundreds’ of Young Trans People Seeking Help to Return to Original Sex

Hundreds of young transgender people are seeking help to return to their original sex, a woman who is setting up a charity has told Sky News.

Charlie Evans, 28, was born female but identified as male for nearly 10 years before detransitioning.

The number of young people seeking gender transition is at an all-time high but we hear very little, if anything, about those who may come to regret their decision.

7 thoughts on “Gates of Vienna News Feed 10/5/2019

  1. Baron, what I’m about to to say has nothing to do with this news feed but statements I’ve read in the past having just discovered this place recently. You and the [pseudo-conservative] boomers who claim “Hitler oh so loved Islam” need to use critical thinking.

    Hitler on Kaiser Wilhelms attempts to stir Jihad against the Entente

    “The hopes of an epic rising in Egypt were just as chimerical. The ‘Holy War’ may bring
    the pleasing illusion to our German nincompoops that others are now ready to shed
    their blood for them. Indeed, this cowardly speculation is almost always the father
    of such hopes. But in reality the illusion would soon be brought to an end under the
    fusillade from a few companies of British machine-guns and a hail of British bombs.
    A coalition of cripples cannot attack a powerful State which is determined, if necessary,
    to shed the last drop of its blood to maintain its existence. To me, as a nationalist
    who appreciates the worth of the racial basis of humanity, I must recognize the racial
    inferiority of the so-called ‘Oppressed Nations’, and that is enough to prevent me
    from linking the destiny of my people with the destiny of those inferior races.”

    He later go’s on to talk about how he’d rather see the Middle Eastern
    Funny how the Arabic translation of Mein Kampf omits this stuff, probably not convenient for Imams that Muslims get to know Hitlers actual view on third world.

    Anyways that rules out pro-Arab atleast, not to mention the huge number of Arabs the French employed, who rightly got shot by SS troops when captured like what the “Totenkopf” SS Division did at Cambrai.

    On Islam as a whole, I don’t like Reddit but the guys answer is plainly true.
    https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/7ckfe5/how_were_muslims_treated_in_nazi_germany_what_was/

    Interesting though how the other utterly unsubstantiated quotes from Hitler on Islam all came from Albert Speer…..the same man who got away with massive slave labor at Nuremberg while Julius Streicher got hanged for running Der Sturmer. Hmmmmm…..

    And the whole “Leftists are the real Nazis” needs to stop too.

    Hitler name drops ‘the Left’ repeatedly as the enemy. And a verbatim quote from him about any similarities between them and the NSDAP:
    “We chose red for our posters after particular and careful deliberation, our intention
    being to irritate the Left, so as to arouse their attention and tempt them to come
    to our meetings—if only in order to break them up—so that in this way we got a chance
    of talking to the people.”

    Hitler talks about rebranding “Socialist” as a word to be co-opted by Social Conservatism. He also talks about the danger and disgust he saw of Vienna “becoming more and more a non-German city” during the Hapsburg empire. Wow, what a multiculturalist, truly…..

    And Hitler wasn’t innately hostile towards Christian Poland as people claim. The first official treaty of the Third Reich was a non-aggression pact with Poland. Marshall Piksudski went to Germany countless times, and the Poles participated in the Czechoslovakia situation in the German side, it wasn’t until they became unreasonable on Danzig that changed.

    Call the Nazis Norse Paganists or agnostics all you want, but don’t call them Islamic sympathizers.
    Comparing European Nationalists of the past to the Globalist EU caliphate monstrosity is ridiculous.
    Have any of you even read Mein Kampf?

    • This is the ancient problem of in vitro as opposed to in vivo.

      Mein Kampf written in 1923 does not totally reflect the Nazi doctrine by the time we get to the late thities, the doctrine itself evolved under leaders other than Hitler.

      Real conservatism is about small government, but the various forms of collectivism, of which Nazism is one, are all about control and a big government footprint, so ‘social’ conservatism is an oxymoron.

      The ideal behind conservatism is that the individual takes responsibility for as much of his life and living as possible, and also bears the consequences of his own decision making, good or bad, lucky or unlucky.

      Collectivism requires collective responsibility and collective decision making, but somehow, despite the theory, the pigs always take control and Snowy always gets shafted.

      The ‘bombs and machine’ guns are a reference to Trenchard’s assertion that the RAF could keep order in Iraq (Mesopotamia) from the air and with no need for ground troops. The effectiveness (or otherwise) of that policy is still reverberating across the Middle East and violently spilling over into the West on occasion.

      Adolf was very pragmatic and also very worried about oil supplies, and when Islamists presented him with gifts, he accepted them at face value, prepared to compromise on any racial nuances and contradictions. The Muslim Brotherhood (Haj Amin) was one of those givers of gifts. It was just a case of recognising common purposes (UK pun intended).

      • Indeed so, MC, though Churchill’s comparison of the Qu’ran with “Mein Kampf” remains valid, even if the Jew hatred stems from different resentments (religious/ethnic).

        More broadly, I recall Jordan Peterson’s suggestion that part of the reason for the arabs’ and Muslims’ resentment of the Israelis is envy; the Jews (youself included, I daresay) have made the land bloom and prosper in a way they never could. The discrimination against ethnic Chinese in parts of SE Asia reflects the same attitude.

  2. Cinema “Komsomolets” in Yekaterinburg rebuilt in a mosque.

    While you were Sleeping..

    The article describes how a quietly and inconspicuous inconspicuous building turns into a religious building for migrants.

    … The correspondent several times photographed the minaret under construction from the opposite side of the street. The correspondent’s interest was not liked by people in the mosque. On October 4, 2019, a Muslim who looked like an Uzbek approached a correspondent from a mosque and demanded not to photograph the construction site.

    ==========
    In the summer in Yekaterinburg there was a high-profile incident when the Russian Orthodox Church in a popular park in the city center (where there are so few places for city dwellers to rest) tried to erect a huge religious building along with parking lots and a shopping center. Half of the city came to the defense of the park and the authorities had to retreat and give another site for construction.
    But Islamization is carried out in exactly this way – by creeping methods.

  3. Russian journalist Julia Yuzik, author of The Brides of Allah, was detained in Tehran

    Daughter Yuzik said on Facebook that “mom has big problems” and that “on Saturday there will be a court deciding her fate.”

    According to her, Yuzik was taken away the phone, and there are no other ways to contact her.

    Journalist Boris Wojciechowski, former spouse Yuzik, has confirmed to the Present Time that the journalist was detained in the capital of Iran. According to him, she is accused of collaborating with Israeli intelligence services. This information is not officially confirmed, but it is confirmed by the coordinator of the movement of observers of Dagestan Ruslan Magomedov.

    According to Wojciechowski, a few years ago Yuzik already worked as a correspondent in Tehran and recently returned there at the invitation of a journalist from Iran. “He guaranteed her safety,” Wojciechowski emphasized.

    “Already at the airport her passport was taken away, saying that they would return it on departure from the country. But, breaking the door to her room, Julia was taken by employees of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps directly from the hotel. She was allowed to call Moscow last night, and even then minute, “said Wojciechowski.

    Yuzik was born in the city of Donetsk, Rostov Region in 1981. She became famous in 2003 when her book, Brides of Allah, was published, telling about suicide bombers from the North Caucasus.

  4. US citizen raped in the center of St. Petersburg
    Fingerprints of a native of Ukraine were taken from the scene. But according to signs, rapists are Asians.

    A US citizen was raped in the center of St. Petersburg.
    As it became known to AN “Operational Cover”, the crime was reported to the police in the early morning of October 5. At about 04:45 in the park near house 3 on Kazanskaya Street, two unidentified men abused a 22-year-old American and disappeared.
    The girl was taken to the Mariinsky hospital with a diagnosis of the condition after rape. After providing medical care, the foreigner was released.
    According to the Agency, a US citizen arrived in Russia on September 6 on a student exchange visa at the Higher School of Economics.
    Signs of rapists: “Asians”, one was in a black jacket with a hood and a dark jacket. The second – in a yellow sports jacket with an inscription on the back of BRAZIL.
    Fingerprints taken from the scene. The 27-year-old native of Ukraine “highlighted” in the police database on them. There were no men at the place of residence.
    However, it is possible that the “fingers” of the Ukrainian were at the crime scene by accident. The American did not recognize him in the presented photo.
    The issue of initiating a criminal case is being decided.
