Who withdrew the $550 Billion on September 15th, 2008? (Flashback--Any News on This?)
Tundra Politics ^ | 11 February 2009 | UNKNOWN

"Today, I was listening to the Glenn Beck program and heard about Rep. Paul Kanjorski’s comments on the financial crisis that took place on September 15th, 2008. According to Mr. Kanjorski:

“On Thursday [September 15] , at roughly 11 AM The Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous draw down of money market accounts in the USA to the tune of $550 Billion dollars in a matter of an hour or two. Money was being removed electronically.

The treasury tried to help with $150 Billion, but could not stem the tide.

It was an electronic run on the banks

The treasury intervened but had they not closed down the accounts they estimated that by 2 PM that afternoon. Within 3 hours. $5.5 Trillion would have been withdrawn and collapsed and within 24 hours the world economy.”

I think that there are not that many people or countries on earth that could pull that much money, that quickly. Furthermore, the fact that nobody is telling who pulled so much money from US accounts suggests that they are still holding a hammer over our heads.

Some very credible people have suggested that George Soros may have been responsible (just like the crash he instigated in Britain). While I would not put it past George Soros to do such a thing, I do not believe that even he has the potential of donating $5.5 trillion out of the economy. My theory is that it was China."

Perfect timing to win the 2008 election. Timed perfectly, and 0bama was shooting hoops as if not concerned. Is there any news on it?

This piece of information about the Closed Door Session of Congress, the House of Representatives, falls into the latter category."

I realize Soros is a rich man, but I don't think he's that rich.

FINALLY! These questions were asked a while back and most people yawned - this election was a set up by the puppet masters who are still pulling the strings and we are NOT FREE as long as we remain in the dark - move the rocks to see what’s underneath!!!!!!

You and I may question who did this but the people who stopped it know. If the money was electronically transferred it should be all that hard to find out where it went. Of course they know. Why are they frightened to tell us?

Individuals and firms who feared their financial institutions would collapse, started pulling their money. It was a panic, not a conspiracy.

“Who did this?”

Oh, I am sure the major media, you know, NY Times, LA Times, Atlanta Journal, NBC/ABC/CBS/NPR News, etc. have been investigating this very serious incident which collapsed the economies of the whole world (and destroyed most of my savings and yours too).

You know the maxim: Follow the money.

Look for earthshaking investigative journalistic reports from these professionals any day now ...

... NOT!

Whoever it was, they sure did accomplish what they wanted to accomplish.

re: but I don’t think he’s that rich

Actually who ever did it didn’t have to be that rich.
The $5 trillion was an estimate of what would happen if it went on and on. It didn’t. Whoever did it knew if they could make it look bad enough they wouldn’t have to withdraw all that much, just make it look like all hell was breaking loose. And the powers that be took the bait.

Whoever it was they were out to affect the election and they certainly did that.

Like others, I wonder why the details have not come out by now.

I think this has pretty much been debunked:

Kanjorski and the Money Market Funds: The Facts

With the Kanjorski Meme still spreading (see Ben Smith, Andrew Leonard, Moldbug, and more), I think I'm finally able to squash it with some hard figures: there never was a $500 billion outflow from any asset class in the space of a couple of hours or even weeks, and the Fed never shut down or froze any money-market accounts.

This is not the first time that Kanjorski has made these allegations. But first, it's worth going through the timeline...

More at the link.

AT LAST! Yes, it's high time the whoever or whoevers that did this are unmasked. I don't know if we will ever know, but I, too, believe it was perfectly timed and on purpose. I also believe this who thing has been a set up being put in place for years and we may ultimately see the outcome as a tragedy that might have been avoided had the person or people who did this been identified and dealt with at the time. Again the news media fails us by not asking the pertinent quesitons...and that quietness should be giving us a big clue.

I always kind of kept in mind the TARP funds were meant to hedge this attack and the stimulus was meant to make sure it didn’t overtake us. It must be the enemy’s we commonly know. Washington and the media don’t touch it.

Not that hard to figure out...it was the international pool’s monetary vote...they didn’t like who they saw winning. Welcome to the New World order where no one country gets to pick their own President.

“Of course they know. Why are they frightened to tell us?”

what Kanjorski said:

“On Thursday Sept 15, 2008 at roughly 11 AM The Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous draw down of money market accounts in the USA to the tune of $550 Billion dollars in a matter of an hour or two.”

well, since it was the Fed (read BERNANKE) who “noticed”, it is entirely possible that it might have never happened.......the “audit” and documents of the Fed issue might well be about discovering or covering up the truth about this, whatever it is......or is NOT

Hard to believe no one knows. Only a handful have the power to make the move. Doubt it was China because their economy goes in sync with ours. I keep think of George Bush comments when he said “why did this happen on my watch”. That would be a good starting point.

Everybody on one day in four hours individually crashed the money market. That’s precious.
