What Politics Regards us as the Great Unwashed & We the Subjects not People | Armstrong Economics

Many questions have come in about connecting the dots. I want to explain a critical point. Both Democrats & Republicans have one thing in common. They do not consider us “We the People” but rather “We the Subjects” which is a significant difference for we are also the Great Unwashed. Both John McCain & John Boehner had no problem abusing the power of the system against those who wanted the Drain the Swamp before Trump. It also explains McCain’s hatred for Trump. This is why I see no difference. After each election, the new people coming to Washington are taken to a briefing and instructed of HOW things are done on the Hill. When the Tea Party showed up, more than 80 people were then in Congress and they refused to follow Boehner blindly. He could no longer cut deals and deliver a guaranteed Republican vote. He started to compromise and relied on Democrats. The common bond was they were all against these new people who wanted to actually change things. I personally knew and had been to the office Congressman Walter Jones who Boehner targeted and directed money to have him lose his re-election all because he supported Ron Paul. I get hate emails from Democrats who foam at the mouth against Trump. They are clueless about the fact they are regarded as stupid and mindless “subjects” there for the politicians to manipulate. They get everyone all worked up using the social issues like women’s rights that no president could change for that has been decided by the Supreme Court. Yet behind the curtain, they will drink together and even party together and laugh at how stupid the Great Unwashed really are. They count on the media to keep the “subjects” actually foaming at the mouth and that way they never use their brain to figure out that they are just mindless pawns in a political game. Even the nonsense over such fights for appointments to the Supreme Court is a joke. There are plenty of cases where two justices appointed by Republicans are on opposite sides. They will NEVER vote just because Obama or Trump appoint one justice. They have their own egos and that is more than party loyalty. They cannot be removed from office. There is no power any politician can exercise over them. So why fight so hard and pretend we need a specific president to “shape” the court? What they are really saying is there is no definitive rule of law! They are out to take down Trump at all costs because to them he is trying to Drain the Swamp like the Tea Party before him. Now you are messing with their power base and that is both sides. In the Cohen case, they subpoenaed Trump’s accountant and gave him immunity. They are looking to set up criminal charges and then will blackmail Trump to try to force him to resign. This is NOT about Trump as an individual, this is all about keeping the swamp filled. He cannot be impeached for any act PRIOR to becoming President and anything that took place during the campaign is a gray area. Make no mistake about it, BOTH Republicans and Democrats are behind the curtain cooperating on this one. Just as they were out to destroy the Tea Party, they have targeted Trump and this is all about PRESERVING the establishment – the Great Swamp. They keep the Great Unwashed ignorant and foaming at the mouth about how horrible Trump is and how he must go. They have no idea what comes next. They have not seen anything yet. They are also intent on preventing Trump from cutting any deal with Putin that would expose the truth behind the entire Magnitsky Act affair. The bankers who manipulated the commodities were trying to take over Russia to control the commodities. They got Yeltsin to take $7 billion from the IMF loans. Once he stole the money, Safra’s Republic National Bank ran to the prosecutors to start the Bank of New York case. CNN even reported the money was from the IMF loans. A few months into the case, the story was changed to a ransom for a Russian businessman. This is why Putin said no problem – Mueller can go to Russia provided he could interrogate Browder and Intelligence officials in the USA. Seems like a fair request. They are covering up that there were at least the bankers who interfered in the Russian elections to gain control of the gold, platinum, diamonds, and oil. I was asked to invest $10 billion into their Hermitage Capital venture and refused. We have Browder running around claiming to be Putin’s number one enemy, but NOT a single news organization bothers to verify the facts or even see that it was Edmond Safra who controlled Hermitage Capital. Browder took control only AFTER Safra was killed – probably by Putin. The Deep State is fighting very hard and needs to take Trump down to ensure this story that there were people in the USA attempting to interfere in the Russian elections back in 1999 which is how Putin even came to power. They fight to make sure this story is NEVER exposed and becomes covered by the mainstream press. Proof that this is a cover-up, the Senate unanimously passed a resolution that stated Putin can NEVER question any Americans about interfering in Russian elections. They would not pass such a resolution UNLESS there was something to hide. If Putin is crazy, then say yes, Mueller gets to question Russians and let Putin question Americans. You refuse such a deal ONLY because it might expose something. This was UNANIMOUS confirming that it is BOTH Democrats & Republicans – the Deep State. They will blackmail Trump to keep this all quiet. They really have to take him down for this reason. They are covering their ass.

“Deeply Troubling” – Wall Street Journal Implores “What Was Bruce Ohr Doing?” | Zero Hedge

The Federal Bureau of Investigation and Justice Department have continued to insist they did nothing wrong in their Trump-Russia investigation. This week should finally bring an end to that claim, given the clear evidence of malfeasance via the use of Bruce Ohr.

Why Some People Can Break the Law and be Heroes | Armstrong Economics

QUESTION: Any reason why Stormy Daniels has not been charged with blackmail? Why should her attorney not be indicted as a co-conspirator? ANSWER: This is the problem with the pretend Rule of Law – it does not exist. The courts allow selective prosecution for they claim the there must be prosecutorial discretion because they cannot possibly indict everyone. Here is the formal explanation by a legal review which states that not even judges have the authority to ask why someone is indicted and another is not. Trust me, the system is corrupt, biased, and lends itself to exactly what we are witnessing. Cohen is indicted for giving money to girls which NOBODY has ever previously determined violate campaign money rules and Hillary who uses a private email and solicits money from the foreign government for her personal charity is above the law and never touched when it was an issue of selling her office of Secretary of State to the highest bidder. A prosecutor has SUPREME POWER and it is NEVER subjected to legal review. It is always about selective prosecution and you throw in politics and you get the most CORRUPT form of government ever devised. Prosecutorial discretion is a central component of the federal criminal justice system. Prosecutors decide which cases to pursue and plea bargains to accept, determining the fates of the vast majority of criminal defendants who choose not to stand trial. Prosecutors’ decisions are generally not, however, subject to judicial review. According to federal case law, the separation of powers doctrine is the “primary ground” upon which courts abstain from reviewing prosecutorial decisions. The constitutional separation of powers doctrine does not adequately account for expansive prosecutorial discretion. In tracing the federal case law on prosecutorial discretion to the eighteenth century, one can identify a connection between the modern theory of prosecutorial discretion and a writ of English criminal procedure that substantially predated the American separation of powers doctrine. id/pg2 SETON HALL CIRCUIT REVIEW The Supreme Court has recognized that prosecutorial discretion can really destroy the economy because there is no possible way for you to know if you are violating any law when it is purely discretion. There have been a number of recent Supreme Court cases why the issue faced by the court has been to deal with the interpretation of white collar crimes such as bribery, honest services fraud, and obstruction of justice. The Supreme Court cannot attack the problem by calling it an abuse of discretion so the approach has been to interpret the statutes extremely narrowly to reduce the problem of charging discretion by prosecutors. Hence, they have been interpreting criminal statutes very narrowly because there is no possible way we can trust prosecutors to exercise sound judgment or not to act corruptly. A competitor could be paying bribes to a prosecutor and you are NOT even allowed to investigate a prosecutor. Justice Kennedy went as far as to take the argument that the Court really should no longer think that prosecutorial discretion as a viable principle is a free society. It opens the door for pure corruption as we are starting to witness. The case was Yates, which was involving the law to go after corporate officers after Enron that prosecutors used to prosecute a Florida fisherman, John L. Yates, for throwing overboard a batch of fish that had been caught illegally because they were allegedly too small, and he wound up with thirty days in jail. ANy act that a prosecutor can twist into a violation of a statue that had nothing to do with what you were doing becomes a tool of tyranny. The charging decisions in Yates, in particular, may be what led the Justices openly to question whether prosecutors should continue to be entrusted with the same degree of discretion. Cohen has NOT actually violated any law. He pled to an indictment by prosecutors who neither have to prove the law as they interpret is valid or if it can apply to pay two girls actually violates campaign financing. Is this just like Yates and his fish? The problem we have is that prosecutors can do whatever they want. They get to destroy your life, throw you in prison, and the burden is always on you to prove you have any rights at all. Like Yates, it takes a very long-term and a TON of money to get to the Supreme Court who then says you were correct after all. They can throw you in jail and you can be killed pending a trial just to be heard on your rights. The system of justice does not exist and prosecutorial discretion means we have ZERO rights whatsoever. Stormy Daniels is a tool. You can bet she is not paying for lawyers. This is a political case to overthrow Trump and as long as they are on the same side as the Deep State, discretion means they can break the law and never be touched like Hillary.

Lanny Davis Makes it Clear The Prosecutor Wrote the Script & His Client Cohen Just Agreed – Not his Own Words | Armstrong Economics

Lanny Davis is the attorney representing Trump’s former attorney, Michael Cohen. Here is a lesson in legal wordsmithing. This attorney Mr. Davis cleverly avoids any direct answer and the press does not even understand his answer. He specifically states that Cohen did not plead in his own word, that the prosecutors wrote the script to which he has to plead or go to jail for decades. He keeps saying (listen closely) that the “prosecutors are saying” to which Cohen “agreed” under oath. The oath part is absolutely absurd for 97 percent of ALL federal convictions plead to whatever the prosecutor tells them to say. If you do not, you go to prison for most of your life. In the 1970s, the conviction rate was 72%. Today, it is 98.7%. Whatever someone says in a plea deal is NEVER the truth. It is what the prosecutor demands you say. This is no different from the Spanish Inquisition. Over 11 million people are arrested every year and less than 4% of the people in federal prison are even there for violence. (full interview) The conviction rate in Federal Court has EXCEEDED the most notorious court in history where you were determined to be a Jew under Hitler, which had a 90% conviction rate. So the American “just-us” system has beaten even Adolf Hitler. The Spanish Inquisition was notorious for torture. If you refused to plead, you were tortured until you did or you died in the process. The records are by no means complete. One study found that of 44,674 cases, there were 826 executions of people burned alive. The problem was simple. Once convicted, they took all your property. Unknown Today, the United States extracts pleas from people with MENTAL TORTURE. You face 100 years in prison or you plead. They subjected people at Guantanamo Bay to “waterboarding” and NOTHING they ever do will any judge call it torture. During the war in Iraq, both the United States Army and the Central Intelligence Agency were engaged in torturing people. They violated human rights of the detainees in the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq. These violations included both physical and sexual abuse, torture, rape, sodomy, and murder. If it were not for a leak of photos, they would never have been caught. The propaganda is always America wears the white hat and would NEVER violate human rights – good one! When judges are former prosecutors appointed by Congress, there will NEVER be any independent checks and balances. They all work for the same team. The land of the free, home of the brave, and justice for all is now just propaganda. Lanny Davis is against Trump personally and that should be no surprise. He even stated in his interview he would NOT represent Cohen unless he flipped against Trump. Claiming that money was given to these two women that were above campaign limits is really a stretch. If Trump paid him personally, it was not campaign funds. This is really a desperate measure on the part of the prosecutors in this case working to feed Chen to Muller where he will say now whatever they tell him. This is all about refilling the swamp. It DOES NOT MAKE it a crime just because Cohen pleads. It is only a crime when a jury renders that verdict. This is the Deep State conniving to take down Trump with every trick in the book. They hate him because he is an outsider. If Putin were to be able to interrogate American intelligence officers who may have been involved with Safra to take over Russia when he stated it was about Russia’s “sovereignty” then the Deep State would be exposed. They will do whatever it takes to prevent the truth ever to surface. Just listen closely and you will here Lanny Davis states that it is the “prosecutors” who wrote the script and his client “agreed” under “oath” just like the Spanish Inquisition. You will also hear in the full interview Davis say he was personally offended as was Cohen with Trump agreeing with Putin. This is an all-out war to drive Trump from office and to cover up what has been going on behind the scenes. What are they so desperate to protect?

It’s Not About Trump & People Are Too Stupid to Even Look at the Trend in Motion | Armstrong Economics

QUESTION: It is so confusing. Hillary took money from foreign governments which is treason and that’s ok. Cohen pays two women to keep their mouth shut and that’s a crime? It seems that this is all one giant game to prevent any reform. They seem to select who to prosecute not because they did something. What is your opinion? PF ANSWER: The interesting aspect is they have succeeded in turning this all about Trump as a person. The real story that shows how stupid people are for they hate Trump yet cannot really say what he has done to them to warrant this type of hatred. One crazy email said he is a liar how can you support him? First, they are all liars and secondly I do NOT support anyone Reoublican or Democrat. This is about a trend and stop looking at the people and look just for once at the TREND!!!!!! Trump is by no means someone who walks on water. This is not even about left v right. This is all about removing an outsider. They constantly bash Trump personally and that is purely to distract people from the REAL objective here. There keep shifting things around like a street guy trying to get you to bet on where the ball is now. I knew Reagan’s campaign manager. Washington views him as an outsider who was only a governor. He was not regarded as one of them. It took a lot of time for even the Republican elite to accept Reagan. This is really about having anyone who is not from Washington as president. They get all these people filled with such hatred it is amazing how STUPID they really are. What you see on TV is all a show. Behind the curtain, Republican and Democrats are all the same. The national debt keeps going regardless who is in power even Trump. The machine cannot be stopped and they do not want anyone from the outside looking in. This is NOT about Trump and if he lied, had sex with 3 women at the same time, or cheated on his taxes. This is about protecting the ESTABLISHMENT and most people are just easily manipulated so they actually think this is about justice and Trump. This is about taking the government back into the hand of those in Washington. Make no mistake about it, even John McCain voted for Hillary to keep the status quo. To keep this personal, they get people to hate Trump and that leaves the ESTABLISHMENT to eat you for lunch. They keep the people divided between left and right so they never notice how much of their income is consumed by the government which produces NOTHING. This hatred is rising and that is the key component for civil war. Those who think this is about supporting or opposing Trump for some political philosophy are plain gullible. There is so much more here going on behind the curtain. Those in power still REFUSE to accept that Trump was elected as a vote against THEM. We just saw the same thing in New York with the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The Democrats are shocked she won but they too wrongly look at her victory as it must mean they want more socialism instead of looking at it as a vote against career politicians. The same is happening everywhere from Malaysia to Italy. It is just time for a major change because the system does not work anymore.

Well said
