The Strange Gaps In Hillary Clinton's Email Traffic

The media has spent a lot of time parsing through the Clinton emails that already have been released - compiling lists, looking for specific names or discussion of particular issues. But they ought to pay more attention to the holes. Bob Woodward has declared that Hillary Clinton’s email scandal “reminds me of the Nixon tapes.” He’s right. In that case and here, it’s not what’s in the record that’s most troubling. It’s what’s not there.

“A captured, neutered, castrated public… the Republic is dead.”

by Robert Dettelis, SGTreport.com:
Sean, I have used these words and many others so similar, when describing the American public and the death of the Republic when talking with friends, etc. Your video commentary Clinton & The Lawless Oligarchy was one of your finest pieces. Your work as I have said in the past, is bar none some of the best that I have come across in truth telling circles. The tone of your voice spoke volumes about your perspective and who you are as a person. What happened regarding Hillary’s free pass is off the charts.
I also share your frustration. I have formally spoken to friends and folks in my community, I have recently begun teaching high school students outside of the public school system on the subject of monetary history, the Federal Reserve, banking, financing , honest money and moral philosophy. I had my awakening in 2007 and have relentlessly pursued self enlightenment in some form, everyday since.

Why Gundlach Thinks It's Going To Get Worse, And Why He Is "Pretty Sure That Trump Will Win"

"What is really happening here is that there’s massive technological change, and big changes almost always lead to political instability. People who benefit from the old construct are loath to see it change, because they don’t want to lose their power and economic advantage. And so they dig their heels in even harder. That’s what we’re seeing in Britain right now. People who remember the good old days when they had factory jobs and made a good living—that’s been taken away, and they want to do something about it."

Welcome To Wonderland

Silver out performs gold as both rise with Treasury bonds, which are in turn rising with stocks, as Junk bonds hit new recovery highs while USD remains firm as inflation expectations are out of the picture. This is highly atypical, maybe even unprecedented. As we watch the macro burp up all kinds of paradoxes and inconsistencies, we can’t help thinking back to the day that the ‘Hero’ announced Operation Twist...

The Chart That Barack Obama Does Not Want Young, Black Males To See

Perhaps one of the more interesting data points from last week's Employment Report is displayed in the graph above, which shows that the jobless rate for black male teens (aged 16-19 years) increased to 40.1% in June from 28.1% in May. Except for a slightly higher increase of 12.2 percentage points during the aftermath of the Great Recession, the 12 percentage point increase in June was the highest monthly increase in history going back to 1972.

US Supreme Court Justice: "If Trump Wins, It's Time To Move To New Zealand"

In what we can assume was a joke, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said that if Donald Trump wins the presidential election, she’ll consider moving.  In an interview with The New York Times published Sunday, the Supreme Court justice, whose peers traditionally avoid political topics like the plague, said her husband, who died in 2010, would have said, "Now it’s time for us to move to New Zealand."

Lessons From The Worst Banking Crisis In History

How Alcoa Just Converted A Half A Billion LTM Loss Into Half A Billion Profit

It is once again on an LTM basis that Alcoa has absolutely outdone itself. Here, things get downright comical, because whereas Alcoa's GAAP Net Income for the LTM period ended December 31 was a net loss of $506 million, when one adds back all the charges incurred over the past 12 months, the "net income", on a non-GAAP Basis of course, soars to a whopping $495 million.

Brexit-Beleaguered Bankers Back to Begging for Bailouts!

by David Haggith, The Great Recession Blog:
Nothing is more shameless in a bedazzling sort of way than rich banksters standing on the public curb with their hands out. First, we had the admission this past week by a major French bank that Italian banks are so sick (and so too big to fail) they could cause systemic banking failure throughout Europe if not bailed out by over-taxed taxpayers.
Lorenzo Bini Smaghi — who was a member of the European Central Bank’s executive board and who is now Chair of French megabank Societe Generale — said the only way to save European banks, if they start to fall like dominoes due to Italy’s banking problems, is with taxpayer-funded bailouts.

“The Doomsday Forum”: Senior Military, Nuclear Weapons Officials Convene… America’s “$1 Trillion Nuclear Weapons Plan”. Take out Russia, Iran and North Korea?

by Prof Michel Chossudovsky, Global Research:
On June 21, 250 top military brass, military planners, corporate military-industrial ”defense” contractors, top officials and scientists from the nuclear weapons laboratories as well as prominent academics gathered at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Albuquerque, New Mexico to discuss, debate and promote the Pentagon’s One Trillion Dollar Nuclear Weapons program.

Gold and Silver Race Toward 2-Year Highs – How High?

by James Cordelaine, Deviant Investor:
Silver’s Going Crazy Too
Everyone knew gold would skyrocket in the aftermath of Brexit. As much as sophisticated investors and TV talking heads love to either ignore or pooh-pooh the precious metal when things are looking bright on the paper side, the minute the news goes sideways their rush to gold makes Black Friday at Walmart look like a Zen and peaceful still-life.
Two reserve currencies, the British pound and the euro, are suddenly looking like twin deer in the headlights of an economic Mack truck. The pound will be down for the count for the foreseeable future, since what we can see ahead looks pretty ugly. Experts are already predicting the demise of the euro, which from this side of the pond may look like no big deal. But 19 of the 28 still-remaining EU nations use this fiat currency, and according to the EU website that amounts to almost 340 million individual users a day. So an imperiled euro is serious business, both for a huge number of individuals and for markets worldwide.

George Soros Predicts Riots, Police State and Class War Coming to America

from Hang The Bankers:
Billionaire investor George Soros has a new prediction for America. While it might be as dire as it gets for the financial wiz, this bet concerns more than just the value of the buck. According to Soros, there’s about to be an all-out class war.
Soros, 81, previously bet against the British pound in the early 90s and made $1 billion off its collapse. In the years since, he’s remained active in investing, but also in advocacy. He’s helped keep Wikipedia afloat thanks to impressive contributions and through donations to the Tides Center, has indirectly funded Adbusters, the Canadian anti-capitalist magazine that put Occupy Wall Street on the map.
Speaking to Newsweek recently, Soros neglected to acknowledge his past successes, but instead offered a word of warning: a period of “evil” is coming to the western world.

This Is The Risk America Faces Now: “An Irrevocable Series Of Events… Up To and Including Civil War”

by Karl Denninger, via SHTF Plan:
Seriously folks? You don’t understand why The Ticker has faded to black?
REALLY? Let me start with this: Why do drug dealers shoot each other on street corners?
Answer: Joe the drug dealer cannot call the cops and tell them that Jack the drug dealer ripped him off and sold him a bag of oregano instead of weed. Joe also can’t sue Jack. Thus, when the threshold of his tolerance is crossed Joe has only the use of direct force available to him because he has no recourse to the law to settle his dispute with Jack.
The FIRST foundation of civil society is The Rule of Law. Without it there is literally nothing other than the Law of the Jungle, commonly known as “he who has the biggest teeth (or the most guns) and is willing to use them first wins.”

Nomi Prins: Trump Wins (Even If He Loses)

Early on in his presidential bid, Donald Trump began touting his anti-establishment credentials. When it worked, he ran with it. It was a posture that proved pure gold in the Republican primaries, and was even, in one sense, true. After all, he’d never been part of the political establishment nor held public office, nor had any of his family members or wives. His actual relationship to the establishment is, however, complex in an opportunistic way.
