We investigate why no top bank executives were prosecuted after the 2008 financial collapse.

Because Fed Reserve chair and professional tax-cheat Tim Geithner ordered the banks to write bad, undocumented mortgages to risky individuals, and then Obama nominated him as Secretary of the Treasury (making him immune to prosecution) where he was put in charge of TARP so he could complete his ambitious task of destroying the US economy.

-AND-

New information on the possible link between impotence drugs like Viagra and blindness.

Where now they are not impotent but blind, and not affected by "bad visuals"....so nobody will be safe.

If Trump tries to get this fixed FAST, he will wind up with it being decided by the 4-4 SCOTUS. If the decision is tied, the previous court ruling—the 9th Circus—applies.

That would be devastating!

It surely would. This is a clever trap which has been laid for him. A bad decision here has the possibility of ruining his entire policy on illegal immigration as well as stopping Muslim Jihadism.

Can you say "Constitutional crisis", followed by extreme left-wing violence and governmental sabotage?

It has come to this. Nothing can stop the death of this Republic but civil war.

Our house is divided. It cannot stand.

Bahaha it’s not Trump. He’s a man of action and the contrast between him and the politicians is remarkable. They have been talking for a decade and still have no clue how to govern.
...
I agree not Trump.

That said I hahaha back at you...to think these sewer rats don’t know how to govern is naive. They do but choose the LowT route of kickbacks and payoffs and campaign castle building at our expense...traitors.

So they moved up his announcement this week from Thursday to Tuesday. Have they announced yet who will shepherd him to his meet and greets with the Senators? Begun the process? I’d say they’d best get moving on it—and then go with the 51 to approve, should the Dems try to slow the process at all.

To: Alas Babylon!; All

Here’s the ‘scoop’ on the Australia/Turnbull phone call & the facts are ugly. MORE treachery by Obama with an assist from Turnbull. No wonder Trump was pissed off when he heard what Obama had done .... I’m sure there are more Obama sabotages yet uncovered/discovered.

***********************************************************
The account of the conversation with Australian Prime Minister Turnbull was equally suspect, but more importantly it exposed another piece of treachery by Obama and former Secretary of State John F. Kerry. The impeccable reporter Shoshana Bryen explains the underhanded post-election deal and why Trump has every reason to scotch it.

Australia wants to prevent immigrants arriving by sea and has dumped them on the islands of Nauru and Manus where they are kept in utterly appalling conditions, creating a public relations nightmare for the Australian government. Bryen writes:

In September, Turnbull agreed to resettle Central American refugees who were in a processing center in Costa Rica. At the time, Australian officials said firmly there would be no quid pro quo. “There will not be a people swap,” announced Scott Ryan, a special minister of state. The American agreement to take Australian internees came two months later, providing a convenient way for Mr. Turnbull to keep his promise to his people and get rid of people who had become a public relations disaster.

Then-Secretary of State John Kerry worked out the deal with Australia to “fast track” the immigrants, but did not tell Congress. In November, responding to information it received, WND reported that the chairmen of the House and Senate judiciary committees demanded details:

“Congress only learned of the deal through media reports two weeks ago [November, 2016] and — according to a letter sent to administration officials by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), and Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) — the deal is not only a matter of grave national security concern, but it could be illegal.”

It would be illegal if the deal was considered a treaty negotiated by then-Secretary Kerry. According to the Constitution, it would have to have been sent to Congress for ratification.

Asked if he had discussed the deal with then-candidate Donald Trump, Turnbull said, “We deal with one administration at a time and there is only one president of the United States at a time.” But Donald Trump is now president and his decision appears to have left the Australian government with few choices.

Asked if there was a “Plan B” for Australia, Turnbull said he was examining several options, but that Australia would not back down on its decision not to let those refugees stopped at sea enter the country:

“Our expectation naturally, given the commitments that have been made, is that it will go ahead. The only option that isn’t available to [the refugees] is bringing them to Australia for the obvious reasons that that would provide a signal to the people smugglers to get back into business.”

Whether there is an agreement to be had between the United States and Australia for the resettlement of Australia’s interned population or not, it is clear that this deal had more to it than the Obama Administration — or the Turnbull government — wanted to admit. The United States and Australia both had reasons not to admit the migrants closest to their borders, but trading Central Americans who wanted to come to the U.S. for Muslims who wanted to reach Australian shores would allow Turnbull to keep a campaign promise and Obama to divert attention from the massive breach of America’s southern border.

When news of the deal broke this week, Australians supported Trump’s refusal to abide by it:

1) Chronology is important here.

1. Ten months out from U.S. presidential election, Turnbull visits U.S. He meets Hillary and snubs Trump.

2. In the weeks leading up to U.S. presidential election, Turnbull does a deal with a dead [sic] duck president.

3. Turnbull and Obama agree to not announce it (hide the deal) until the U.S. presidential election is over. They both want Hillary to get up, and the deal would be excellent ammunition for Trump in a campaign dominated by illegal immigration.

4. Trump wins. Turnbull panics.

5. Turnbull has to call Greg Norman to find out how to get in touch with Trump.

6. Turnbull announces deal publicly five days later, and before he has spoken to Trump about it.

7. Trump understandably gives him a smack down on the phone.

8. Turnbull spins the phone call, and in desperation to announce something good in his otherwise failing prime ministership, announces the deal as done.

9. Trump is annoyed that Turnbull couldn’t keep quiet. Trump has been placed in a contradictory position that could damage him politically.

10. Trump gives Turnbull a smack down on Twitter, and leaks the phone call to return the favour.

The problem exists because of Turnbull, and Turnbull alone.

– At no point has Turnbull invested in a personal relationship with Trump. Mostly because he exists in the same elitist bubble as people who predicted a thumping Hillary win.

– He did a sneaky deal with left wingers and helped hide it from voters in the U.S.

– He then tried to pump his own political fortunes up and didn’t care about the damage it might do to Trump.

Turnbull has to go. He is damaging the Liberal party and the nation.

Your fears have been mine, too, AB.....but this is judicial overreach in spades. Not even a politicized Supreme Court would split on this one. In essence, it awards US lawmaking to any circuit court judge and applies it to the entire country. It would create a constitutional crisis.

Worst case, re-raise the issue and send to the Supremes again in April.

Chris is all attack all the time. Claims pulling back Dodd Frank was a gift to Wall Street. He obviously has no idea what Dodd Frank did to the housing industry.

Now he is claiming the old Mnuchin is from Goldman Sach which was over a decade ago. Now the stock market going up is a bad thing after 8 years of it being a sign of a recovery for messiah.

This “Constitutional crisis” has been planned all along.

The “Shadow Government,” working in concert with the Media, Hollywood, Academia, and financed by the Globalist elites, is intent on destroying the Presidency of Donald Trump by any means necessary.

The sooner people realize this fact the sooner they can react to this coup d’état.

Chis is now setting up T-balls up for crooked Feinstein the woman whose husband gets no bid contracts from the military. Amazing how he has made over $100 million since she has been in the Sinate.
