Hillary Is in Free Fall – Rumors She’s Going to Cancel Debate on Monday

by Jim Hoft, The Gateway Pundit:
Liberal crank David Goodfriend and The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft joined Steve Malzberg on Newsmax TV to discuss News of the Day, specifically: Clinton supporters, money news, Clinton canceling her fundraiser, and Charlotte protests.
Jim Hoft dropped this bomb during the discussion:
“Hillary is in free fall. Everybody knows it. The campaign knows it.. She canceled her appearance yesterday. She had a fundraiser in North Carolina. They didn’t even give an excuse for it. They just canceled. They are rumors now that she’s going to cancel the debate on Monday. Some top conservative wrote me today… And she’s really going in the wrong direction. She spent $50 million last month and dropped 10 points. So it’s a free fall for Hillary. She’s collapsing like she did on 9-11”

"A recent investigation by Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO) has confirmed that a copy of certain user account information was stolen from the company's network in late 2014 by what it believes is a state-sponsored actor.

Do WhiteLivesMatter In Charlotte?

We have one simple question - how is beating, dragging, stripping, and laughing-at an innocent white man going to help the discourse about police violence against black men?

Why The Coming Wave Of Defaults Will Be Devastating

Without the stimulus of ever-rising credit, the global economy craters in a self-reinforcing cycle of defaults, deleveraging and collapsing debt-based consumption.

Trump Blames Obama For Charlotte Violence: "The Level Of Hatred... Starts With Leadership"

“You look at the level of hatred... the rocks being thrown and everything happening. It’s so sad to see. You know, this is the United States of America. I mean...  it starts with leadership.”

Which is Worse: A Busted Pipeline Or A Politician With A Case Of The Do-Somethings?

Many voters, unaware of what they are truly asking for, pressure their politicians to just “do something.” In Alabama, Governor Bentley forbade “unconscionable prices for the sale of any commodity” in his State of Emergency proclamation. Governor Deal did the same in Georgia. The masses clamor for action, not realizing that the best course of action for our politicians is for them to just sit on their hands.

Senators Call For Labor Dept Probe Into Wells Fargo As Warren Buffett Vows To Keep Silent Until After Election

That did not take long. Just hours after a CNN report suggested that Wells Fargo was retaliating, and firing, company whistleblowers who had spoken out against the company's illegal "account creation" practices (while blaming them of being "tardy"), moments ago Reuters reported that Senators have asked the Labor Department to investigate Wells Fargo for potential violations of Fair Labor Standards

Yellen To Wall St: It's Christmas In September So Buy, Buy, Buy!

"I’m now firmly in the camp that not only will the Fed not raise this year – they may not raise again for years. For they are not only “painted into a corner” via their own misdoings – they are chained there by Wall Street. They’ve missed the window..."

JPM's Head Quant Throws In The Bearish Towel; Sees Nothing But Smooth, Levitating Markets Ahead

"According to our estimates, selling from systematic strategies is now mostly completed. This is assuming that S&P 500 momentum stays positive, and that volatility does not significantly increase further. As the market bounced post Fed and September options expired, the large put option (gamma) imbalance subsided and is no longer pushing volatility higher."

The "Wealth Effect" Didn't Die: It Was Never A Valid Concept No Matter How High Stocks Go

Over the years, the “wealth effect” has been taken as a core component of monetary policy. Central bankers will not admit it, of course, but particularly stock prices are a central element of their strategy. But no matter how high especially stock prices go, there is no wealth effect – NONE.

In Dramatic Twist, Wells Fargo Said To Retaliate, Fire Whistleblowers Who Exposed Bank's Illegal Practices

Wells Fargo admitted to firing 5,300 employees for engaging in illegal, fraudulent tactics. Now, CNN is reporting that it spoke with numerous former Wells Fargo workers around the country who tried to put a stop to these illegal tactics. Almost half a dozen workers who spoke with us say they paid dearly for trying to do the right thing: they were fired.

Just Plain Pathetic

We are speaking, of course, of the Fed’s decision to punt yet again, and for a reason that is not mysterious at all. To wit, our financial rulers are petrified of a stock market hissy fit, and will go to any length of dissimulation and double-talk to avoid triggering a crash of the very bubbles their policies have inflated.

Charlotte Is Burning: Waking Up From The American Dream... Finally?

When Charlotte erupts, we need to pay particularly close attention. Some still think that this nation is doing just fine except for those ugly pockets of poverty and segregation that routinely explode like Baltimore or Chicago. Others know better, but hope to move away from, and thus avoid addressing, the persistence of ugly racial injustice and the cries for help coming from black families. Charlotte is their wake up call.

JPM Agrees With Trump That Fed Is Political, Accuses Yellen Of "Distorting Asset Markets, Blowing Bubbles"

The Fed is "imposing long-term harm for no short-term good here... we've got an inappropriate level of interest rates which is distorting asset markets, blowing bubbles and will eventually end up in inflation."

The Three Stages of Empire

by Charles Hugh Smith, Of Two Minds:
I consider it self-evident that we are in the third and final stage of self-serving Imperial decay.
Though Edward Luttwak’s The Grand Strategy of the Roman Empire: From the First Century CE to the Third is not specifically on the rise and fall of empires, it does sketch out the three stages of Empire.
Here is the current context of the discussion of Imperial lifecycles: the U.S. defense budget is roughly the same size as the rest of the world’s defense spending combined:

Radioactive Water Cover-up in Florida: Officials Didn’t Warn the Public For a Month

by J. D. Heyes, Natural News:
Most people who don’t live in Florida are not aware that the state is kind of famous (or infamous, depending on your point of view) for sinkholes; in fact, they’re fairly common.
And, as reported by Daisy Luther, you may have recently heard some scuttlebutt about a new sinkhole in the state.
But there is more to this one than meets the eye, Luther reports – much more, in fact. As in, this one is poisoning the environment at a remarkable rate, and as usual, the Environmental Protection Agency has, for weeks, been in cover-up mode. So much for upholding the “public good.”

Terrorist Group Nominated For Nobel Peace Prize

by Stephen Lendman, The Sleuth Journal:
Nobel hypocrisy is notorious for favoring warmakers over peace champions, a rogue’s gallery of miscreants among their honorees – notably Obama, Henry Kissinger, Shimon Peres and Yitzhak Rabin.
If imperial-sponsored/al Nusra-connected misnamed Civil Defense White Helmets operating in Syria win this year, ignoble Nobel tradition will continue.
Created by Britain and America in 2013, they’re managed by James Le Mesurier, a former UK soldier and private military contractor in Dubai and Raed Saleh.

Puerto Rico Blackout Enters Second Day – Entire Island Of 3.5 Million People Without Power

from Zero Hedge:

The 3.5 million people of Puerto Rico are entering their second day with no power after a substation fire knocked out service to the entire island.   The power outage has left schools scrambling to cancel classes and public hospitals forced to cancel surgeries.
Perhaps even worse, the outage caused numerous fires across the island as a result of malfunctioning generators, including at the upscale Vanderbilt hotel in the popular tourist area of Condado and at the mayor’s office in the northern coastal town of Catano.

The Housing Market Is Going To Crash Again

by Dave Kranzler, Investment Research Dynamics:
I’ve worked through four bubbles – they all end the same…I think the flippers in Denver metro are driving the under $400,000 price to a frenzy and the over $500,000 in the burbs are dropping in price. Some of these flippers have 8-10 houses at the same time. A little jiggle and they will dump. Then the part time rental landlords follow in selling as the rental market gets tough. A trashed house or eviction usually puts these houses on the market… – – Three decade-plus Denver real estate professional and subscriber to the Short Seller Journal

Saudi Official Finally Admits Saudi Arabia Supports Terrorism

by Darius Shahtahmasebi, The Anti Media:
Saudi Arabian support for terrorism is something most people are aware of, but in the face of Saudi Arabian and American denials of this reality, presenting it as an undisputed fact is frustratingly difficult without an official confirmation.
This is all beginning to change. At least some degree of Saudi Arabian involvement in the September 11 terror attacks has more or less been confirmed. Anyone who has even a limited understanding of the history of al-Qaeda and radical Islamism should be well aware that al-Qaeda was initially a Saudi-U.S. operation devised in the 1980s to repel Soviet influence in the Middle East; bin Laden, himself, was a Saudi national. Sure, fighters were trained in Pakistan and Afghanistan, but the money — and a bulk of its members — came from the Islamic Kingdom.

U.S. Big Banks: A Culture of Crime – Jeff Nielson

by Jeff Nielson, Sprott Money:
Organized crime. This phrase is now a precise synonym for big-banking in the United States. These Big Banks commit big crimes; they commit small crimes. They cheat their own clients; they swindle outsiders. They break virtually every financial law on the books. What do all these crimes have in common? The Big Banks commit all these crimes again and again and again – with utter impunity.
These fraud factories commit their serial mega-crimes, year after year, because the Big Banks know that they will never, ever be punished. On rare occasions, their crimes have been so egregious that U.S. ‘justice’ officials could no longer pretend to be oblivious to them. In such cases, there was a token prosecution, there was a settlement where the law-breaking banks didn’t even have to acknowledge their own criminality, and there was a microscopic fine – which didn’t even force the felonious financial institutions to disgorge all of their profits from these crimes.

The US Government is About to Lose its #1 Lender

by Simon Black, Sovereign Man:
Yesterday I told you how the US federal debt level is expanding at its fastest rate since the financial crisis.
This isn’t supposed to be happening.
The financial crisis is years behind us. The economy is supposedly on solid footing. The government keeps gushing about how much tax revenue they’re collecting.
Usually when government debt expands so rapidly it’s because they’re waging war, fighting a major recession, or financing some serious infrastructure projects.

Texas Governor Threatens To Exit The Federal Refugee Program: “Empathy Must Be Balanced With Security”

NOTE: For those who are still in the dark about the Soros-NWO (and Obama) plan to destabilize Europe and the United States with this problem-reaction-solution “migrant crisis”, WATCH THIS. ~SGT

Russia Set to Debut Powerful ‘Son of Satan’ ICBM

from Russia Insider:
Test firing of ‘Sarmat,’ a new intercontinental ballistic missile first-stage engine (ICBM), which will enter service in the early 2020s, has just finished in Russia. The weapons’ tactical and technical characteristics are classified as “top secret”. We are talking about information that we were able to obtain from the developers and from what we found out from our conversations with the military experts.
I stress that currently we are conducting engineering and developing work on the missile, and by the time we adopt it, it will undergo a number of modifications and changes.
