Ol’ Jim Pinky Pinkerton.

Haven’t seen anything by him for a while.

Maybe I just missed it.

When the Article V constitution convention meets, they need to consider the following:

“The United States Government shall never use armed force against Citizens of the United States of American. When force is required, it shall be the responsibility, and administered under the authority of, the local sheriff.”

People researching Bundy Ranch also need to read this thread, for my comments especially. Maybe a hot lead.

You have no longer any cause to fear danger from abroad; your strength and power are well known throughout the civilized world, as well as the high and gallant bearing of your sons. It is from within, among yourselves, from cupidity, from corruption, from disappointed ambition, and inordinate thirst for power, that factions will be formed and liberty endangered. It is against such designs, whatever disguise the actors may assume, that you have especially to guard yourselves.

You know, this thing called “history” will be re-written before it will even be brought up, if ever, in school to be taught, much less be a lesson for future generations on how repulsive big government, whomever is in charge, gets to be...

It will be up to the citizens, here and now, to continue to stand up and be counted, and take the battle right back at this elected caste of liberal destructionists, and the feckless “so-called” conservatives who enabled it to get this bad, all in the name of being nice and desiring to be cast in a good way with the propaganda machine in our national media, who work directly for those destructive politicians...

Just my take on it all...

Fiction. Jesus comes back in October 2014, the Raputure occurs and a signifcantly large number of people disappear all over the world. The ones left behind consist of over a billion Muslims, Harry Reid types, politicians, and former millennial agnostics and athiests who wondered where there parents disappeared to and later turned their lives over to the Lord after seeing He is real.

.....the standoff between the government and the Nevada ranching family got rough as the govt flexed its federally financed muscle. Members of the Bundy family were physically assaulted by armed federal officers, numerous cows were shot dead, and protesters faced threats of federal gunfire for merely expressing their outrage. But the national perception is that a resounding victory against a tyrannical federally financed agency took place on the Bundy ranch.

Nevada Dimocrat Sen. Harry Reid had the audacity to call the peaceful pistol packers, ranchers, cattlemen, patriots, flag bearers, cowboys and cowgirls "domestic terrorists."

Keep in mind, the Reid family has enormous financial interests in the area. Harry seems to have access to billions of federal dollars that he spends as he pleases....with no accountability.

==================================================

At first glance this episode (below) looks like money-laundering tax dollars----with Reid, aiding and abetting Obama's desperation to use tax dollars to buy aye votes for Obamacare.

NOTE THAT Landrieu was willing to take $200 million for her aye vote------but Harry "accidentally" gave her $4.3 BILLION. The spread is enormous....what exactly happened to the rest of the money?

The billions could have been laundered through Landrieu then redeposited elsewhere.

=================================================

THE GRUESOME DETAILS: In the fall of 2009, Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev) was trying to get the necessary 60 Dimocrat votes to pass Obamacare. He needed every Dimocrat on board, which gave waffling senators a great deal of leverage.

In Sen Mary Landrieu's case, she connivingly saw that selling her aye vote could get her maybe $200 million federal dollars.

Obama complied. Reid chalked up another vote for Obamacare. Not $200 million---but $4.3 billion for Landrieu was attached to the Obamacare bill.

===================================

Where'd the money go? How $4.3 billion to Landrieu was attached to the Obamacare bill, and how Obama and Reid connived to get it there, is yet another indictment of the Obamacare atrocity.

The Reid/Obama payoff to Landrieu should be investigated:

(1) as an indication of how EVERY Democrat came to vote for Obamacare in an historic straight party line vote,

(2) how federal monies might have been laundered into the campaign coffers of Dummycrats,

(3) how federal monies came to be used as Harry's personal piggy bank.

BLM Whistleblower Rusty Hill uncovered corporations and shady land deals connected to Reid Bunkerville LLC, Zion Bank Corp, and BLM lands surrounding the Bundy properties.

Every account held by Reid Bunkerville LLC (essentially secret bank accounts), and Reid-related energy/land accounts at Zion Bank Corp need to be unveiled ASAP.

Nevada flag bearers, pistol packers, ranchers, cowboys, cowgirls, militias, cattlemen, landowners/taxpayers, Bundy sympathizers, Oathkeepers, and other patriots, must demand the Bank Secrecy Act be employed to uncover and prosecute all of Reid's shady dealings.

Under the Bank Secrecy Act, banks are required to establish, implement and maintain programs designed to detect and report suspicious activity indicative of money laundering, and that might be indicative of govt fraud, embezzlement, and other financial crimes.

“The Bank Secrecy Act was enacted to protect the public from harm by identifying and detecting money laundering from criminal enterprises, terrorism, tax evasion, govt fraud, bank fraud, or other unlawful activities,” the special agent in charge for Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation, explained.

L/E needs to examine the above-referenced bank and Reid-related accounts. ASAP.

<><> Joint bank accounts might be used to facilitate the transfer of govt funds. Govt monies may pay for personal and private expenses, credit cards, real estate subsidies and vehicle purchases.

<><> To cover their tracks, the principled might create fake invoices to show that money deposited into accounts was being used for legitimate purposes.

The scheme might be advanced by issuing phony statements of payments from federal and state sources that actually covered the transfer of funds for the principles own use.

<><> L/E is directed to get ahold of: (1) copies of Reid checks, (2) wire transfers, (3) account statements, (4) invoices, (5) bills, (6) delivery tickets, (7) correspondence including e-mail, contracts, loan agreements, and, (8) any other books or records. L/E should also explore (a) monies paid to brokers, sub-brokers, (b) family members, (c) mortgage brokers, (d) financial managers, and, (e) real estate agents, brokers, and developers.

<><> L/E should scrutinize bank accounts for suspicious activities: (A) large deposits, (B) funds transferred from one account into another, (C) frequent requests for withdrawals.

<><> Bank records might also show diversions to other LLcs, secret offshore accounts, to operate personal businesses. Fraud can also be facilitated by withdrawals, gift cards purchases, credit card purchases and intrabank transfers from seemingly legit accounts into personal accounts on orders of the accountholders.

<><> A huge tipoff is whether bank withdrawals support payments for real estate, investment and stock holdings, vehicles, offshore travel and so on.

================================================

REFERENCE When Madoff went to jail, investigators found Ponzi King Bernie had stashed billions offshore---into a labyrinth of financial and business entities.

COLLUSION AND CONSPIRACIES GALORE Some $8.9 billion was funneled to Madoff through a dozen so-called feeder funds based in Europe, the Caribbean and Central America......a labyrinth of hedge funds, management companies and service providers that, to unsuspecting outsiders, seemed to compose a formidable system of checks and balances. But the purpose of this complex architecture was just the opposite: the feeder funds provided different modes for directing money to Madoff in order to avoid scrutiny.

Socialism cannot exist in abundance, because anything in abundance automatically becomes an alternative currency, which subverts the control of the state over things.

It can be said that the only place socialism can actually work is on the Moon, where *nothing* exists in abundance, so everything *must* be rationed.

Socialists realize this, so work very hard both to create shortage even in the middle of abundance; or at least the *appearance* of shortage. So they constantly campaign to “raise public awareness” that shortage exists in abundance.

As in, here we sit on a raft in the middle of a fresh water lake, full of potable water; yet they try and convince us that drinking water is in shortage, so we must do what they want and they will ration it for us. They then angrily attack anyone trying to get water for themselves by reaching overboard with a cup.

Look at food in America for a moment. One of the biggest problems that farmers have is that while a scant crop can be financially hard on them, a bumper crop can wipe them out. Even at the height of the Dust Bowl, when thousands of farms were destroyed, the farmers outside the region still produced so much food that it was not worth it to ship to market.

So even today, we have vastly more food than we could eat. So why is there the prospect of high inflation in food prices soon? Well, it has nothing to do with the food itself, and everything to do with bad government.

One final note is that “austerity” is often a lie. When the problem is that a government is too large and spends too much money, an “austerity” program that hurts the public but leaves the government untouched is the height of hypocrisy.

Today, in the year 2064, as we look back over the last 50 years,.....

World wide grain production has not yet recovered from the onset of global cooling in 2017....and the Sun has only produced a few sunspots since....

The best forecast of scientists is that at least another 50 years before Sunspots re appear and the 11 year sunspot cycle starts up.

In other news ice breakers have opened southern ports for the first time in 15 years....allowing key exports of coal, petroleum and medical supplies to reach a frozen Europe.

The federal government is clearly too big when a “land management” agency can afford to have its own sniper team. A government agency that has more money than it needs to conduct its core functions is an agency that will busy itself with finding more things to control and ways to extend its power. This is the Iron Law of bureaucracy.

A government that can create its own money does not have to ask taxpayers for permission to spend more to feed its self-serving bureaucratic activities. When states start calling for a Convention to consider amendments to the Constitution, the first topic must be to restrain federal spending. A government that must live within its means is a government that must focus on the important things rather than imposing evermore intrusive laws and regulations having the weight of law.

Every day more people are coming to the judgment that a carefully organized effort to repair the constitution via the States’ power to propose and ratify amendments has less risk to our liberty and prosperity than the present trajectory of the federal government and especially the federal bureaucracy.

Near-infinite money enables near-infinite government.
