    New York area fire commissioners have unanimously called for a new investigation into 9/11, claiming that “overwhelming evidence” of “pre-planted explosives…caused the destruction of the three World Trade Center buildings.” The Franklin Square and Munson Fire District outside of Queens, New York made history by becoming the first legislative body in the country to support a new investigation into the events of 9/11, according to Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth.​..
    ​ “​Whereas, the overwhelming evidence presented in said petition demonstrates beyond any doubt that pre-planted explosives and/or incendiaries — not just airplanes and the ensuing fires — caused the destruction of the three World Trade Center buildings, killing the vast majority of the victims who perished that day​.”​
    ​ The impact of 9/11 on the community extends well beyond the victims and their grieving families. On September 12, 2001, the Franklin Square Fire Department was called in to assist with the massive rescue and recovery effort that was just getting underway. Countless members of the department, including Gioia and Commissioner Philip Malloy (then rank-and-file firefighters), spent weeks on the pile searching in vain for civilians and fellow responders who might still be alive. Today, Malloy is one of thousands suffering chronic health effects.​..
    ​ Conversing with guests after the meeting, Commissioner Dennis Lyons said: “We have a memorial — a piece of steel from the World Trade Center with 28 holes where the nuts and bolts used to go. Every year on the 11th, we put a rose in each hole for the 24 Nassau County firefighters and four Franklin Square residents who died on 9/11.” ​Thanks Colleen.​ What happened to the nuts and bolts?​

    ​This is a very interesting article about British imperial continuity within the American empire, through careful cultivation of institutional influence through the CIA and State Department (Hi, John Bolton!). Roosevelt lost this one when he died.
    The “special relationship” tried to keep Trump out, then get rid of him, as detailed in the second article.
    “Turns out it was Britain that was the foreign country interfering in American affairs,” former MP George Galloway told RT, speaking about the new revelations published by the Guardian about early British involvement in the ‘Russiagate’ investigation.

    The ‘Special Relationship’ Is Collapsing… and That’s a Good Thing

    Another Obama?
    “The only way to remove Trump is to crush Trump,” Moore said.
    “And that’s the question that has to be asked. Who can crush Trump? Who’s the street fighter?
    …There is one person that would crush Trump – and she hasn’t announced yet. And her last name rhymes with Obama. In fact, it is Obama – Michelle Obama.”

    The war on savings and pensions continues unabated.

    If it cannot be paid back, then it won’t be paid back.
    Now, we can see what will happen. Now, we can see the tools that is being used against us fools.
    We were idiots to think that everyone would be able to get a living pension income by putting a few dollar into the hand of a professional scammer. (bankers)

    See, …. that is what happens when TV experts finally become the power behind the throne and get a chance to try out their pet theories.

    Those rich ass hole don’t even realize that ordinary people are the ones in the firing line.

    I was under the impression that the experts had all kinds of models that they could try their pet theories before actually trying them in the real world.

    Boy …. was I dumb to think that.

    Can the regulators inspect all the containers coming into the USA? No.
    Can the regulators stop the imports of opioids? No
    Do you think that all the USA inspectors of containers are more honest than all the other inspectors in the world?

    Therefore, why do you think that the exporters cannot remove the “made in China” sticker tag and replace it with “made in Mexico” or “made in Vietnam” sticker tag and avoid the export tarrifs?

    The reason the 737 Max wasn’t grounded after the first crash was the FAA risk estimate and airworthiness notification were crap due to privatization and corruption. The second crash grounded the plane. Modern flight control systems need three or more sensors according to the regulations. Two is inadequate. The only way the plane can fly safely is if the pilot diagnoses the problem and flies it out of a computer induced dive and/or the inherent aerodynamic pitch up in a matter of seconds. That will take simulator training and weeding out of weak incompetent pilots. This goes against political correctness and will cost lots of money.

    This encapsulates the Empire as it crashes. Corporate greed supersedes health and safety. Truth is the ultimate victim in a desperate attempt to prolong the regime of chaos.

    Wolf Richter (top article) provided just what I needed to make an important point.

    “These borrowers are being subsidized by current and future retirees, by savers, by fixed-income investors, and ultimately by federal and state taxpayers when they’re called upon to bail out the pension funds.”

    The key words in that entire essay are “bail out.”

    It seems to me that Wolf’s conclusion might better have been:

    You can have higher, free market interest rates OR you can have government bailouts. You can’t have both in any ratio. PICK ONE.

    That all-or-none remedy for the world debt crisis resembles the remedy for the world’s immigration crisis. In that case:

    You can have a welfare state OR you can have open borders. You can’t have both. PICK ONE.

    Now I’m on a roll. You can have stratospheric aerosol injection to cool the planet OR you can have sufficient photosynthesis to feed the biosphere. You can’t have both. PICK ONE.

    Governments exist because politicians refuse to make those kinds of hard choices, and that is why the problems mankind faces remain eternally insoluble.

    Sharing a bit of frustration with Ilargi in his comment the other day, I wonder if my viewpoint will be parroted now by M.S. and others as “original art” over the next few weeks.

    You can have people who treat the Talmud and Protocols as a thieving, genocidal GAME PLAN rather than a prophesy OR you can have trust and dignity (i.e. peace and prosperity) in the world.

    You can’t have both. PICK ONE.

    I thought that the normal upward mobile system in the USA was to go from private sector to a gov. cushy job or vise versa.

    Also, that people were promoted to their level of incompetency.

    ps. I do not trust the competency of the younger generation. ie. too many planes falling out of the sky

    NO Dijsselbloem as IMF head! The Greeks here are really despondent!

    #48940

    The Greeks are like: now we’re going to have a Bulgarian lady telling us we’re too lazy and drink too much? How does that work? Anyone been to Bulgaria lately? (lots of Greeks moved their businesses to Bulgaria post-crisis so they wouldn’t get crushed by IMF-imposed taxes etc.)

    @ John Day
    A fire commissioner doesn’t necessarily have any experience in firefighting or education in fire science. It’s a minor elected position and duties are administrative.

    The actual fire department is diplomatically referring questions back to the Commission:
    Due to the recent vote by the Board of Fire Commissioners in regards to their resolution on launching a new 9/11 investigation, the department has received multiple questions and emails on the topic. The opinions of the Franklin Square and Munson Board of Fire Commissioners does not necessarily reflect the opinions of the Chiefs, Officers and Members of the Fire Department
