    Keith Haring Untitled 1984

    Untitled? I should think 1984 would suffice, no?
    The imagery certainly evokes such…

    “It would completely redefine Europe as a place not caring about human rights”

    Hold on, when was the last time Europe cared about human rights? Certainly not since the Iraq War. I. When they applauded Clinton chopping up and bombing Serbia, handing it to him for a base where he sat on top of a pipeline and the major drug trade? –Coincidentally, of course. When Franco was around? When the tanks rolled into Czechoslovakia or Hungary? When Ireland was occupied and bombed for 20 (120) years?

    “ ECB Will Act If Inflation Expectations Are De-Anchored: de Guindos (R.)”

    They don’t care what you think because you don’t have enough money to turn the dial. They only care what billionaires and possibly 2-digit millionaires think because their actions matter. I mean, if that weren’t already obvious.

    “global trade disputes, one of the biggest drags on growth”

    Hmmm. Nice framing. But probably 1/30th of the effect of overwhelming debt which is exponentially compounding. So…we had suck growth in 1999 because of disputes? How about ‘08? Trade Wars? No? How about 1929? Oh wait, that was AFTER the growth had already collapsed. Does anyone read their own text before hitting “send” anymore? You’re fired. No wonder you work for the non-news source “Reuters.”

    “Make banks healthier so that they could support a vibrant economy.”

    Speaking of non-news from non-sources, BANKS don’t make economies, dummy. Production does. We have this thing you can use called “cash”, and it’s a thing that can finance your business without a 1,000 pound weight hanging over you. But since we don’t produce, AND we don’t have or use cash – you know, profits? — I can understand how you’ve never heard of producing wealth and storing it for sale and trade. How gauche. How primitive. For neanderthals and rednecks, clearly.

    Banks are the ENEMY of the economy. Ask Greece.

    “.those new laws are protecting American interests… by keeping the sitting president out of the loop.”

    The President hasn’t been in the loop since Eisenhower. And that was only because he said he’d show up at their door with Patton’s 3rd Army if they didn’t let him on the base. True story. Well after Eisenhower came Kennedy, and we see how the Dulles brothers locked him out in an brazen attempt to start WWIII in Cuba among other places, and it was only his genius to get outside lines that revealed to him how much the “military-industrial-congressional” (Eisenhower’s words) had erased the people and civilian government and ended democracy. This is the origin of the phrase, “break them up and scatter them to the winds.”

    Well we all know THAT story, and that was 60 years ago. So you really think the MIC lets the President and Congress a) MORE in the loop or B) LESS in the loop? Bonus question: where did that $20 Trillion verified missing money from Federal (non-military) budgets go? They have a lot of paper clips hiding somewhere? Or maybe into the military black funds of DUMB space war?

    …And people wonder why Trump ignores Brennan’s CIA and Mueller’s FBI briefings and listens to the Military Intelligence that put him office. (who is also lying to him but in a different way) Why waste his time? Everything they’ve said since 1958 has been a lie. Right NYT? Right Rachael Maddow? You know, with the official leaks you keep reporting for years about incubator babies and WMDs and then (never) retract?

    He’s more likely to get the truth from Putin himself, and that’s saying something. So let me ask you: in this situation, how do you right the ship? How do you get it working again, honest and truthful? Yeah, I thought so.

    Btw, don’t be stupid: Russia certainly has those same tools already embedded here. It would be irresponsible not to. That’s just spywork. So maybe we should ask instead, “why are they never used?”

    “Is The Caspian A Sea Or A Lake? (ZH)”

    Hilarious. Like all laws, it’s defined according to whoever has the guns. There is no law. I’d say “between nations” but clearly there is now no more law within nations either, not here, not in Britain, Sweden, or Iran either. Men love corruption more than life itself.

    “Record CO2 Emissions In 2018 Driven By Surging Use Of Gas (CB)”

    Speaking of articles being a dog’s breakfast. So CO2 increases because energy use increased? Why blame gas? And renewables increased? Why bother reporting it? It’s hardly a rounding error despite now bankrupting Germany, exactly as anyone with a pencil could predict. The Paris Accord? You mean the one that allowed the two largest, worst nations to pollute at will while crushing cleaner nations with restraint? The Accord nobody was following at all anyway? Gosh, made a lot of difference when it was halted then. Not. And so we’re not going to reach the Zero line no one thought we would ever reach anyway? And? And this article leads us where? I thought y’all wanted gas, as that was the cleanest energy out there, not coal and not nuclear. Can’t please some people.

    Take care of your own house because these guys aren’t going to save you. If you haven’t noticed over every day of your human life, they only ever make things worse.

    You cannot drain a swamp when you don’t know where it is.
    You cannot drain a swamp when you don’t have a place to put it.
    You cannot drain a swamp when you don’t have the right tools.
