The story of Jade Helm — the name for the upcoming military exercises in Texas, California, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, Colorado, and Nevada — has taken a decisive turn for the absurd as Texas Governor Greg Abbott has now called on the Texas Guard to (literally) monitor military drills conducted by US special forces after local residents suggested the exercises could be the precursor to a federal invasion of Texas. Only in America.
1,100 Foreign Donors To Clinton Foundation Never Disclosed & Remain Secret
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/29/2015 - 17:30 The reason this is a politically explosive revelation is because the Clinton Foundation promised to disclose its donors as a condition of Hillary Clinton becoming secretary of state. Shortly after Barack Obama was elected president in 2008, the Clinton Foundation signed a “memorandum of understanding” with the Obama White House agreeing to reveal its contributors every year.It hasn’t.
Apple Admits Watch Shortage Due To Defective Supply, Not Demand
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/29/2015 - 16:50 Apple fan-boys have proclaimed the Apple Watch a screaming success as Tim Cook explained he was "generally happy" with the launch. The big driver of the impression of awesomeness was how hard it was to get one... i.e. so much demand that supply copuld not keep up. However, as The Wall Street Journal reports, it was not demand, it was instead defects that forced the company to limit supply.
from Money Metals Exchange:
The Federal Reserve bank and its owners, the largest banks on Wall
Street, want badly to be able to charge you interest for the privilege
of depositing your funds. The problem is getting you to stand for it.
Depositors already complain vigorously about zero percent returns on checking and savings accounts. If they must start actually paying the bank to hold funds on deposit, many will opt to simply withdraw the cash and stuff it under their mattress or into a safe deposit box. That simply won’t do.
The Goal Is to Force You to Deposit Cash and Charge You Interest
Bankers in the U.S. can learn something from the Swiss. The Swiss National Bank recently implemented negative interest rates without first solving the “problem” of how to prevent cash from fleeing the banks. Predictably, depositors started doing some math.

12 Unanswered Questions About The Baltimore Riots That They Don’t Want Us To Ask
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/29/2015 - 16:30 Yes, the anger over the death of Freddie Gray is very real. Police brutality has been a major problem in Baltimore and much of the rest of the nation for many years. But could it be possible that the anger that the people of Baltimore are feeling is being channeled and manipulated for other purposes?
from Outsider Club:
As many of you probably know, The Outsider Club office is in Baltimore.
So the recent events are pretty palpable for all of us here. I passed two armored personnel carriers on my way in to work today. When I got to the office, the cafe was closed and the office building was locked down.
Suffice to say I’ve got a lot of thoughts and feelings about what’s going on, but I think it’s best to address them piece by piece, rather than all at once.
And what I want to talk about today are the “outside elements” that are reportedly holding our city hostage.

I wrote an article two days ago entitled The Dual Purpose of Jade
Helm. The following email, purportedly from a Texas Ranger supports my
notion that Jade Helm more than likely has a dual purpose with the end
game consisting of the enforcement of a brutal form of martial law and
mass detentions.
Hello Mr. Hodges,
I have been a Texas Ranger for quite some time, and as such, I am privy to much of what is going on with regard to the Midland Walmart store closing, the presence of ISIS on Texas soil and our preparations to combat an insurgent threat.

Apple Warns Of "Material Financial Damage" If Its $171 Billion In Offshore Cash Is Jeopardized

US President Barack Obama, the Federal Reserve, and Las Vegas casino
magnate Sheldon Adelson were among those nominated on Monday to pass
through to the final stage of a prestigious prize: the Crony Awards,
organized by The Atlas Society.
Inspired by the novel Atlas Shrugged by objectivist philosopher Ayn Rand, the Washington, DC-based organization launched a public vote to find the individuals, corporations, politicians, and government agencies that are most guilty of handing out or receiving political influence for economic gain.
“Unfortunately today we live in a mixed economy full of examples of special interests merging with the power of the state. We have developed the Atlas Shrugged Cronyism Contest to allow everyone to participate in identifying and educating about the destructive nature of crony capitalism,” the competition’s website explains.

Overnight markets were weaker, but I don’t think that made much
difference to anyone in America. I was perhaps a bit premature yesterday
in saying that earnings season was over when in fact we had not heard
from the biggest market cap of all, that being Apple (and I was wrong
about the NFP report; it is next Friday, not this Friday). As everyone
expected, that company did have a monstrous quarter, as pent-up demand
for the new phone (and an upgrade to bigger screens) led to the last
couple of gargantuan quarters Apple has posted.

statement by Elena Bondarenko, a member of the Ukrainian parliament: http://slavyangrad.org/2015/04/18/statement-by-elena-bondarenko-peoples-deputy-of-verkhovna-rada-of-ukraine/
The Western media has created a fictional account of events in Ukraine. The coup organized by the Obama regime that overthrew the elected democratic government in Ukraine is never mentioned. The militias decked out in Nazi symbols are ignored. These militias are the principle source of the violence that has been inflicted on the Russian populations, resulting in the formation of the break-away republics. Instead of reporting this fact, the corrupt Western media delivers Washington’s propaganda that Russia has invaded and is annexing eastern and southern Ukraine. British and European politicians parrot Washington’s lies.

The Real Financial Crisis That Is Looming
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/29/2015 - 15:50 There is a financial crisis on the horizon. It is a crisis that all the Central Bank interventions in the world cannot cure. It is a financial crisis that will continue to change the economic landscape of America for decades to come. No, we are not talking about the next Lehman event or the next financial market meltdown. Although something akin to both will happen in the not-so-distant future. It is the lack of financial stability of the current, and next, generation that will shape the American landscape in the future.

When Exactly Will The Fed Launch QE4?
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/29/2015 - 15:00 No one earned it. No one saved it. But here’s our prediction: Someone will miss it when it is gone! If the US money supply were a deck of cards, Uncle Sam has been slipping in extra aces for the last 44 years. In the third quarter, net liquidity is likely to turn negative. And the stock market is likely to correct. What then? The Fed will panic and announce QE4… and other measures.

'Hawkish' Hilsenrath Confirms Fed Not Worried About Q1 Growth, Rate Hikes Coming
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/29/2015 - 14:21 At a stunning pace of 608 words in just 4 minutes, The Wall Street Journal's Fed-Whisperer, Jon Hilsenrath, has proclaimed his "common knowledge" meme for today's FOMC statement. Confirming that officials "aren’t at this point alarmed about the first quarter slowdown," and in fact stating they are confident of spending picking up due to consumer sentiment (which just fell)... which leaves them signalling no shift in policy stance - i.e. rate hikes are coming whether the economy can handle it or not..."Not Patient" Fed Blames Snow For Weakness, Removes Calendar Guidance
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/29/2015 - 14:03 With everyone hoping that The Fed says something dovish (because after all stocks are 1% off their highs) there was some disappointment as the weakness was shrugged off as transitory:- *FED SAYS WINTER SLOWDOWN PARTLY REFLECTS `TRANSITORY FACTORS'
- *FED SEES MODERATE GROWTH, JOB GAINS EVEN AFTER 1Q SLOWDOWN

Flash Crash Scapegoat Can't Afford Bail, Will Remain In Prison
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/29/2015 - 13:14 The news of Navinder Sarao's arrest, the scapegoat for all that is broken with the world's equity markets, may have come, gone and be largely forgotten, but while the CFTC is happy to have washed the corruption and incompetence off its hands by destroying the career of one insignificant trader (whatever happens, redirect public attention from the HFT firm that just came public and boasted of one trading loss day in 6 years) Sarao is facing decades in prison. And, what is worse for the alleged mastermind of the May 2010 flash crash, he won't even be able to enjoy a few weeks in quasi-freedom. Why? Because this lonely 36 year old, who "crashed" the entire market 5 years ago from his parents' basement (literally), can't even afford bail.from TheAlexJonesChannel:
