The last week of April could very well see some extremely shocking and perhaps chaotic events that could shape the geo-political future the world is rushing headlong towards right now. The first of these will come in just two days as the long awaited French elections could very easily determine the fate of the European Union, and the Euro currency. The first round of voting is set to be a closely-fought rac ...

If it weren't for the tens of billions of dollars EU states give to the bureaucracy in Brussels each year, the European Commission would be little more than a paper tiger.  However, until more continental governments stand up to growing behemoth that is now threatening their very sovereignty, they will have little choice but to either disconnect from the Union like Britain is doing, or become a vassal state ...

It appears that Dog the Bounty Hunter could one day make a comeback as the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is planning on hiring civilian skip tracers to go after individuals who have failed to file tax returns, or who may owe taxes and fines. In a new policy established by the IRS, the government agency that often acts outside the law itself would see the use of bounty hunters to go after American citizens ...

U.S. insurance companies have officially filed suit against Saudi Arabia's largest bank, as well as other financial companies on April 14 for their role in aiding, abeting, and/or funding Osama Bin Laden and the 9/11 terrorists.  This is the first lawsuits to be made against a Saudi Arabian interests since Congress voted to remove the Middle Eastern power from immunity over the biggest terror attack ever on ...

Even the most ideological and incompetent bureaucrat eventually gets the message as after nearly four years of declining exports, and hundreds of billions of euros lost in trade, the G7 on April 11 voted down a U.S.-UK led resolution to impose greater sanctions on Russian military and political figures following the false flag gas attack that occurred in Syria last week. Led by German and Italian members wi ...

As Barclay's current CEO engages in a witch hunt to try to find the source of who leaked recordings that showed the European bank was deeply involved in the rigging of Libor rates over the past 10 years, an interesting counter-party was discovered to have also been involved in artificially lowering the rates in which banks lend to one another, and from which billions of commercial transactions depend upon. ...

You know that a system is completely out of whack when a former executive of Goldman Sachs tells Congress to reinstate a law that would potentially lessen profits for the same investment bank he used to work for.  But that is exactly what Trump adviser and the former COO of Goldman did on March 5 when he held a private meeting with the Senate Banking Committee to push ahead with the means to break up the to ...

When President Donald Trump tweets out that Obamacare is on the precipice of imploding, it appears that he is not far off the mark.  Failing insurance companies, Doctors leaving their practices, and even several regions like in the state of Arizona not even having a provider are just some of the consequences that have emerged in the three years since the Affordable Healthcare Act went active. But now we are ...

On March 30 the inept and often viewed alcoholic head of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, attempted to both admonish and threaten President Donald Trump over his support of the UK's leaving the union by stating he would personally promote for the secession of states like Texas and Ohio. Speaking at a conference of the center-right European People’s Party in Malta, the titular head of the Europe ...

There is much speculation that 70 plus days into Donald Trump's Presidency, the outsider who became Commander-in-Chief may have already spent his political capital.  And we are seeing this right now in Congress's opposition to discuss tax reforms, the debt ceiling, and even in finding a measly $4 billion to begin construction of a border wall. And with the Republican led Congress once again mired in the leg ...

Unlike the majority of Democrats who almost always vote in lockstep to what their leadership demands, Republican members of the House and Senate often split with each other when voting for a given bill or program.  And this division has only gotten worse since around 2010 when a group of Congressmen entered into the GOP on the coattails of the Tea Party movement. In fact, we saw this division play out just ...

On March 27 President Donald Trump created a new office for his son-in-law Jared Kushner with the intention of finding applicable offices and programs within the government that could be either streamlined, or outright privatized. Moving forward with one of his many campaign promises to treat government as one would a business, this move is similar in scope to Trump's budget submission from a couple weeks a ...
