Good life lessons here
It has come out that a DMV employee in California slept on the job for 3 hours per day or more. A state auditor’s report of the DMV show a woman simply slept on the job and her supervisors failed to discipline her ever. This was despite the fact that they noted in her performance evaluations that she simply slept, as reported by the San Francisco Chronicle. Even in the US Post Office, the unions had managed to get as part of their contract that anyone who was going to check their performance had to give them notice of what day they would be checking. This is what they are raising taxes endlessly for to provide pensions for government workers that are not held to the same standards as those in the private sector.

Great commentary on modern fiction
COMMENT: From Europe, we are looking at your CNN and it really has become just propaganda and fake news. I was not a fan of Trump, but I have to say, he has done a great job probably better than any world leader. He has revised trade and has turned North Korea while your unemployment is now below 4% at 1960s level and you have a GDP growth of 4% while we have unemployment still in the 60% level among the youth and economic growth is at best 2.4%. It is hard to see why CNN turns everything negative. HD REPLY: It is really becoming blatant. This is one joke image going around, but it clearly demonstrates the point. America’s GDP growth is 4.1%, which is about twice that of Europe. Trump’s hardline threats of tariffs have yielded the first real new fair trade deal with the European Union. North Korea is actually returning the remains of our fallen American soldiers which have made a huge difference to many families. The immigration issue where families were being separated was portrayed as if it was something brand new under Trump. CNN never bothered to report this was a policy that predated Trump and that Obama deported more people than any other president in history. They intentionally ignored the immigration issue under Obama and only used it against Trump demonstrating how corrupt CNN has become acting as only a political propaganda network. The damage CNN is doing to the country and the world is beyond description. My greatest concern is they are fueling a Civil War and what comes AFTER Trump? The people will NOT be satisfied with a career politician any longer. We are witnessing the Trump Revolution around the world and even within the Democrats. Trump should stop the verbal assault on the press and reinstated the Fairness Doctrine and FORCE the press to present both sides and ned this reign of propaganda. However, the owner of CNN, Time Warner, the Chairman and CEO Jeff Bewkes came out and stated PUBLICLY that Trump does not pose a grave threat to free speech, but rather it was the Democrats. Speaking at Business Insider’s Ignitiion, Bewkes made it very clear that the Democratic Party’s commitment to campaign finance reform was a threat to free speech. He pointed out that Hillary Clinton said she would push for a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United, the Supreme Court decision that lifted restrictions on political spending by corporations and interest groups. She wanted to reduce free speech that was being funded against the Democrats.

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, I seem to recall that in your case HSBC had to plead guilty and paid back only $600 million because the difference in the notes in yen was your profit. Putin specifically mentioned that the $400 was stolen. That was you he was talking about. Then the $10 billion they wanted you to invest in Hermitage Capital was what started your case thanks to a mistake by the Japanese government. Then after watching the Magnitsky movie, it seems like they killed everyone who had knowledge of what was going on as in your case everyone around you was killed. Maybe you survived because you were in contempt of court? You do realize that there were less than 50 views of that movie until you posted it. It has now passed 7,000 views. PKL ANSWER: Yes, the $400 million was the difference. I am not certain it is the same $400 million. Nevertheless, it is amazing how the press does not even look at the fact that how did HSBC plead guilty and only had to pay $600 million on an alleged $1 billion case? It is just amazing how the press will NEVER question the banks or the government. It certainly opened my eyes as to how corrupt the entire system has become. You just have to wonder how they split up that $400 million. Here is the court transcript of the prosecutor Richard D. Owens explaining HSBC would pay the restitution to the court but he failed to explain that the $400 million was our profit he was handing to HSBC and others one must guess. I was flat outright told in soliciting me to invest in Hermitage Capital that Yeltsin would step down and they would have control of the metals, energy, and diamonds of Russia. Keep in mind that Safra was a hard-money guy. He would call the metals desk at his bank every day. The idea of getting hold of the resources of Russia was the grand scheme of manipulating the commodity markets that various New York players had been engaged in for decades. Who was the mastermind? I do not know. Perhaps Putin does. As far as the $10 billion was concerned, many of our Japanese clients believed the case was intentionally created by the Japanese Deep State as a favor to the Americans. We were filing a lawsuit against Republic National Bank and Edmond Safra for taking the money which halted the take over by HSBC. They put in a receiver at O’Melveny & Myers to seize the company and prevent any lawsuit to protect the bank. In 2004, the SEC even moved to end the contempt, but it was O’Melveny & Myers who argued to keep the contempt going against the SEC. The lawyer was Martin Glenn who was later then given a judgeship. This entire series of events appears to be a huge cover-up of an attempt to take over Russia. That is what Putin is saying that they will let Mueller in to interrogate Russians if they can do the same with respect to this entire mess. This is why both movies were banned and nobody in the press will dare to report anything. All they do is call for war effectively with Russia. Here is Putin’s case against Browder. Trump seems willing to open that door. Don’t forget, they have been beating Trump relentlessly about Russia interference in the 2016 elections. Trump’s son was represented by a lawyer I had in my case. So don’t think for a minute that nobody knows the truth. As far as the $10 billion they wanted me to invest into Browder’s Hermitage Capital, here are the two letters from the Japanese government. Notice how they suddenly correct their letter of August 18th on August 31st, 1999 from $10 billion to $1 billion. They would not allow the companies to ever have lawyers, myself, or any of the partners. They simply wanted to make sure nothing would EVER go to trial to keep this issue hidden from the public and this is why they have banned both films in the USA. If it is BS, then why ban it if it is nonsense? In both films, the government was invited to give their version. In both films, they denied any public appearance to deny anything.
