This could be the most important story of this decade.
I can think of about a dozen folks off the top of my head around here who would actually go along with a fool notion as that. There are a lot of stupid people walking around.
Also to shut down and prevent JPMC from holding its annual meeting.
Steven Lerner - SEIU - is the guy talking on the tape.
Says he wants to “bring down Wall Street”
bump
It appears that public unions would like to strike in mass and demand that all city debt be forgiven.
Basically they want to commit extortion against banks nationwide as they inflict pain on the taxpayers as a means of foecing their will.
Is this like one of those “nobody buys gas on Thursdays” types of movements? Oh, boy — this is gonna be good!! /s
I am saying that they are overreaching.
Bad for them, good for us.
Glenn Beck is on Fire, our country is in the Greatest Danger ever, the Left and Radical Islam working together, to destroy this nation ...
It's not controversial. Obama's either legit or he is not. Get lawyers involved and take it to the courts. Those names you mentioned have a business. It's called Radio. Their credibility can make or break them. It's up to YOU and lawyers to bring this into the spotlight not up to Talk Radio.

So that’s how they’ll celebrate May Day this year.
Smoking gun..... How is this not treason?
Pretty much par for the course for Beck. EVERYTHING HE HAS BROUGHT TO LIGHT has been pretty much the most important story of the decade.
I would not look for the DOJ to help. They probably know all about it. A banking collapse is inevitiable. The 4 large banks have been insolvent for 3-5 years. They stay open because the Fed has been propping them up with TARP money. That is why the FED refuses to tell a Senate overisght committee who got the money. These banks should have been alllowed to fail 2 years ago in an orderly manner. A banking holiday has been on the way for a long time. Look for a 5 day bank holiday and then when they re-open there will be a new dollar and it will take about 3 old dollars to buy one new dollar.
Before I closed my mortgage business last year we heard through a BOFA source here that BOFA hd already received signs to put on their doors basically saying that they were closed until further notice by order of the Feds.
Most people have no clue that this is even a possibility. They will freak out when they cannot access their ATM machine or use the ATM card at the grocery store. Credit cards likely will not work either. Put some cash under your pillow to get you through a week without a bank. You are not going to want to be anywhere near a BOFA or Wells or Chase bank when this goes down. People will probably be lighting them on fire. The grocery store isn’t going to be any picnic either. You should have at least a couple of weeks of food stored up at home so you don’t have to go there.
By hanging unfunded municipal pension debt around the taxpayer’s necks, they will put pressure not on “the rich”, but on the middle class - who they expect will in turn blame the wealthy and the banks for not being able to pay their mortgages and thus help create chaos. It’s pure Cloward and Piven - “ungovernability”
“How do we interfere with their ability to be rich”
These are full on marxists planning a busy summer of bringing down representative government and impoverishing America.
TREASON - bump
“Under RICO, a person who is a member of an enterprise that has committed any two of 35 crimes—27 federal crimes and 8 state crimes—within a 10-year period can be charged with racketeering. Those found guilty of racketeering can be fined up to $25,000 and sentenced to 20 years in prison per racketeering count. In addition, the racketeer must forfeit all ill-gotten gains and interest in any business gained through a pattern of “racketeering activity.” RICO also permits a private individual harmed by the actions of such an enterprise to file a civil suit; if successful, the individual can collect treble damages.
When the U.S. Attorney decides to indict someone under RICO, he or she has the option of seeking a pre-trial restraining order or injunction to temporarily seize a defendant's assets and prevent the transfer of potentially forfeitable property, as well as require the defendant to put up a performance bond. This provision was placed in the law because the owners of Mafia-related shell corporations often absconded with the assets. An injunction and/or performance bond ensures that there is something to seize in the event of a guilty verdict.
In many cases, the threat of a RICO indictment can force defendants to plead guilty to lesser charges, in part because the seizure of assets would make it difficult to pay a defense attorney. Despite its harsh provisions, a RICO-related charge is considered easy to prove in court, as it focuses on patterns of behavior as opposed to criminal acts.[4]
There is also a provision for private parties to sue. A “person damaged in his business or property” can sue one or more “racketeers.” The plaintiff must prove the existence of a “criminal enterprise.” The defendant(s) are not the enterprise; in other words, the defendant(s) and the enterprise are not one and the same. There must be one of four specified relationships between the defendant(s) and the enterprise. A civil RICO action, like many lawsuits based on federal law, can be filed in state or federal court.[5]
Both the federal and civil components allow for the recovery of treble damages (damages in triple the amount of actual/compensatory damages).
Although its primary intent was to deal with organized crime, Blakey said that Congress never intended it to merely apply to the Mob. He once told Time, “We don't want one set of rules for people whose collars are blue or whose names end in vowels, and another set for those whose collars are white and have Ivy League diplomas.””
