Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/26/2016 - 15:45 "It’s pretty remarkable," "Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough said of Clinton’s response to the OIG watchdog report "I don’t understand why you put out a statement like that,” Scarborough added. "Stop lying, stop digging." The slam continued: “'I screwed up. I’m terribly sorry,'" he offered as alternate responses. "'I hope the American people will forgive me and I hope they will let us move on to the issues that matter.'”

"You Are Redefining Yourself As A Comic-Book Villain" - Nick Denton's Open Letter To Peter Thiel

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/26/2016 - 20:26 "Peter, this is twisted. Even were you to succeed in bankrupting Gawker Media, the writers you dislike, and me, just think what it will mean. The world is already uncomfortable with the unaccountable power of the billionaire class, the accumulation of wealth in Silicon Valley, and technology’s influence over the media.... you are redefining yourself as a comic-book villain. However philanthropic your intention, and careful the planning, the details of your involvement will be gruesome."

"We’re Moving To Tackle Systemic Risk" - India Cracks Down On HFT Scourge

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/26/2016 - 20:06 While the corrupt and criminal US regulators are unable to do anything to stifle the market domination of algos which have totally destroyed the US equity market, and sucked up enough liquidity where neither buy nor sellsiders can generate a profit, India is already well on its way to crushing the parasitic - and perfectly legal - frontrunners of virtually ever trade. It will do so by increasing penalties on high-speed trading firms that flood exchanges with orders that don’t result into actual transactions, as part of steps aimed at strengthening its oversight of computerized trading.

Peak Petro-State - The Oil World In Chaos

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/26/2016 - 19:45 Pity the poor petro-states. Once so wealthy from oil sales that they could finance wars, mega-projects, and domestic social peace simultaneously, some of them are now beset by internal strife or are on the brink of collapse as oil prices remain at ruinously low levels. At the peak of their glory, the petro-states played an outsized role in world affairs.  That, of course, was then, and this is now. While these countries still matter, what worries these presidents and prime ministers now is the growing likelihood of civil violence or even state collapse.

Meanwhile In China, Cow-Collateralized Stock Buybacks

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/26/2016 - 19:17 Over the past few years, we have written many strange stories about China's often-ridiculous, perpetually-bubbly, always on the precipice financial system. The story about China's literal "cash cows", however, is by far the strangest.

A Spirit Of Violence And Civil Unrest Is Rising In America

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/26/2016 - 18:55 It was only a matter of time before our deeply divided nation was going to start coming apart at the seams.  Waves of anger, frustration, violence and civil unrest are starting to sweep across the United States, and political rallies for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump have become a focal point for releasing some of that energy.  The angry mob that threw rocks, bottles and burning T-shirts at police and Donald Trump supporters on Tuesday night wanted to get the attention of the national media, and they got it in droves.  Now that the election is less than five months away, this kind of scene is going to be repeated over and over, and this is something that we warned about back in March.  Millions upon millions of our young people have fully embraced the radical left, and they have already made it exceedingly clear that they are not afraid to use violence to advance their cause.

Furious China Slams "Irrational" US Trade War, Warns "Will Take Steps"

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/26/2016 - 18:45 Overnight the Commerce Department escalated its trade war with China when it implemented the latest clampdown on a glut of steel imports, when it announced that corrosion-resistant steel from China will face final U.S. anti-dumping and anti-subsidy duties of up to 450%. China's Commerce Ministry said it was extremely dissatisfied at what it called the "irrational" move by the United States, which it said would harm cooperation between the two countries. "China will take all necessary steps to strive for fair treatment and to protect the companies' rights," it said, without elaborating.

Trump Rips “Loser” Neocon Bill Kristol and Doomed Third Party

Mocks floundering “renegade” party that has 2,700 followers on Twitter
by Kurt Nimmo, Infowars:
On Wednesday, Donald Trump mentioned Weekly Standard neocon and Fox News pundit Bill Kristol and the effort to establish a third party.
Trump said Kristol “wants the war in Iraq. All the guy wants to do is kill people, go to war and kill people, even though he knows it’s not working, although he doesn’t know because he’s not smart enough.”
Kristol was a leading proponent of the invasion and occupation of Iraq. He teamed up with fellow neocon Lawrence Kaplan and wrote The War Over Iraq which predicted a “two month war, not an eight year war” in 2003, weeks before the invasion. According to Kristol, the Gulf War, the Kosovo War, the War in Afghanistan, and the Iraq War were not invasions, but rather “liberations.” The invasion of Iraq alone cost over one million Iraqi lives.

Genetically Modified Polio Virus Being Redeployed as a Cancer Treatment… FDA Pushing for Quick Approval… What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

by Daniel Barker, Natural News:
An experimental cancer treatment has been given “breakthrough” status by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), but is it really a “miracle drug,” as portrayed by the mainstream media?
The treatment, which uses a genetically-altered version of the polio virus to fight cancer cells, has been given fast track status for Phase 2 trials. If the Phase 2 trials are successful, Phase 3 testing may not be required, and a drug based on the treatment could be made available within a few years.
Phase 1 trials of the treatment on an aggressive form of brain cancer called glioblastoma were successful enough to give many people hope that a revolutionary new cancer-fighting weapon might be on the horizon.

Smoking Gun: Crooked Hillary Clinton is GUILTY

from The Alex Jones Channel:
AUDIT REVEALS CLINTON EMAIL SERVER VIOLATED SECURITY RULES.

Kyle Bass On The The Looming “Run On Cash” & the Resurgence Of Gold

by The Doc, Silver Doctors:
“I think that one of the fears that they have is a run on cash. If they told you and I that they’re going to tax your deposits by a hundred basis points, well it’s better to put it in a safe or under your mattress. And that’s why you see a resurgence in gold. The more they move to negative rates, the more gold is gonna take off because there’s no carrying cost.“
Hayman Capital founder Kyle Bass sat down recently for a conversation with Maria Bartiromo and Gary Kaminsky on Wall Street Week. He covered a variety of topics such as NIRP, income inequality, and the U.S. presidential race. As our regular readers know, Kyle correctly predicted the housing crisis, and is now calling for the yuan to be dramatically devalued.

The Contagion of Government Lying

by Andrew P. Napolitano, Lew Rockwell:
“Crime is contagious. If the Government becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.” – Justice Louis Brandeis (1856-1941)
Last week, this column chronicled the startling admissions of lying by White House senior adviser Ben Rhodes. Rhodes readily acknowledged to The New York Times that he lied to the public and to members of Congress during the negotiations that produced the recent Iranian nuclear deal so as to temper the “irrational” fear that some senators and representatives had of the mullahs who run the government in Iran.
He was asked — not subpoenaed — to testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee about his lying, and he refused to show up, claiming his lies were protected by executive privilege. Because he spoke publicly about this, he has no privilege, yet nothing further happened. The committee gave up the ghost.

Silver: Industrial Users Starting To PANIC and Pay “Any Price” for Physical

by Bix Weir, Road To Roota:
One of the biggest drivers for the physical silver price explosion is the panic of industrial users to get heir hands on the physical silver that is necessary to manufacturer their products. Remember, very little silver is used in most silver applications so the price is “inelastic” meaning industrial users will pay almost ANY price to get physical silver.
Before you ask…Yes, Apple Corp. with their $216B in cash will be (or likely has already) started stocking up on physical silver as every iPhone uses a little necessary silver.
But signs of this “industrial panic to buy” in the mainstream media have been sparse in the past – until now…
