Yeah, I was working in a science lab around that time and the lab was doing work for DARPA, and I was friends with a young couple both PhD.s and probably both with clearances to work in the program. They both adamantly refused to join Fakebook, never said why. Just unh-unh. I’ve wondered lately if they didn’t get tip offs about it at some of the conferences and stuff that they would go to.
Dude! Check your freep mail, I sent you my adddress!
Quite agree with that pov, but what if Bongino is replacing Sean? That would sadden Sean.
Actually, a rabbit trail I suppose, since we are running on grande speculation here, on what Bongino’s coming announcement includes, or whether FOX is even interested in him.
PS: Shepherd Nerd has been in high feather this afternoon, trying and convicting General Flynn and by implication the president. sHeppp was a jerk to Catherine Herridge, which is a No-No for fair minded viewer.
I swear. Bagster is taking a nap and missing all this great FUN??? As for you, you’re killing my mystique. Or, be it... mistake?
HA HA HA! WE’RE ALL FAGS NOW MAIRDIE!!! HAHAHAHAHA!
The CIA and DARPA ran a program just like FB called Life Log that closed down the same day that FB went live.
“Well, much of this is far above my pay grade, but what strikes me about all this international currencies circus is that there is nothing involved of established value... and SDRs have been re-defined and revalued often.”
That’s the case now because no one is using a gold standard. When Keynes suggested using a Bancor during the Bretton Woods Conference there was a gold standard and this creates a much different monetary regime.
“I cannot get over the suspicion that the Fed wants to drive the US into insolvency via debt “
Considering that the Fed doesn’t issue any debt you will need to rethink that suspicion.
Congress is the agency that can and does issue debt in our name. They alone have the Constitutional authority.
The Fed can buy and sell debt in the open market the same as you do when you buy a bond. There is a different reason and effect when the Fed does it, they do it to adjust the supply of high-powered money in the banking system.
Commercial banks can’t lend the money that they have tied up in bonds/debt. If the Fed purchases bonds from those commercial banks then the banks have money that they can lend and the economy can grow. The Fed has to balance the need for increasing the money supply with defending the value of the dollar. Their job is to act as our monetary authority.
“I wonder what Q means by answering the question Q: Do we have the gold? with: Yes. Gold shall destroy FED.”
It means that he doesn’t know what he’s talking about with regards to the arcane world of central banking and monetary theory. The Fed operated for 60 years under the gold standard, and re-imposing one won’t “destroy” the Fed in any fashion.
On the other hand a gold standard is a big problem for free spending politicians who want lots of government programs. There’s a reason that the Bretton Woods gold standard blew up soon after the Lyndon Johnson “guns and butter” Great Society + Vietnam War spending. Let’s see if Q can figure out why, because his quote about the Fed and gold indicates that so far he doesn’t have a clue.
Of course little did they know SuckBook and goolag had ways to peek our your smartphone whether you installed them or not.
i wondered how many posts it would take to get the correct response.
the Gadsden flag is never far from the minds of patriotic freeqs!!
Shepp is always a jerk...especially since he doesn't like girls. Unless they invite him to a slumber party and they all take turns getting their faces made up. Shepp appreciates make up tips.
True. I've said for a couple of years now that Sean should leave. He could probably join OAN in a heartbeat. I still wouldn't be able to watch him though. His constant int interruptions and repetitions drive me crazy.
I related this to the bomb threats here yesterday and the disappearance of US Prosecutor Huber from public notice... should have also mentioned the Clintooon Foundation hearings on Capitol Hill.
I think you’re right, thanks for teh clarification!

☺ Thanks... I can now use the excuse of pain pills! tee hee
For those that didn’t dig on the ICCNCIDC mentioned in the quodverum article it is the,
The Utah Data Center (UDC), also known as the Intelligence Community Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative Data Center
Some specs:
The completed facility is expected to require 65 megawatts of electricity, costing about $40 million per year. The facility is expected to use 1.7 million gallons (6,435 m3) of water per day. An article by Forbes estimates the storage capacity as between 3 and 12 exabytes in the near term, based on analysis of unclassified blueprints, but mentions Moore’s Law, meaning that advances in technology could be expected to increase the capacity by orders of magnitude in the coming years.
1 exabyte = 1000 petabytes or 1 million terabytes or 1 billion gigabytes
BUT... Who will run the currency? Mad Maxine?
“Of course all the responsibility for US currency belongs Constitutionally to the Congress”
Sounds like someone is confused. The Constitution is notably silent on currency. It does grant Congress the authority to mint coins.
Private banks printed their own currency all through the 19th century. Sometimes they were required to hold gov’t bonds to back their currency, sometimes they weren’t.
Banks in fact still have the legal right to issue their own currency. It costs them to do it, whereas creating money via ledger entries on checking accounts doesn’t, so no one does.
a good short description of Money & the Constitution is found here:

I believe the Treasury does still create the coinage.
