It was a major blow to the “Trump is a racist” lie.

 

Radio host Jamie Allman emceed the 1776 Freedom Tour March in Washington DC. Hundreds of Trump supporters attended the event and march from the National Monument to the White House.

 

Most of the attendees were black or minority.

 

Jamie Allman heavily documented the event on Facebook.

 

One video went viral — It showed the Freedom Marchers going by Black Lives Matter Park.

The black protesters were chanting, “We love Trump!” as they passed by BLM park.

 

The video shows the stunned BLM demonstrators most of whom were white .

 

Now Facebook is making conservative talk host Jamie Allman pay for exposing it.

 

The video has received more than 21,000 views.

On his flight home to St. Louis Allman discovered he’d been locked out of his account for “bullying and harassment.“

 

The video is pro-Trump and involves black voters. It was too much for Facebook so they locked Jamie Allman out of his account.

 

Jamie needs to learn who’s boss.

Deutsche Bank Whistleblower Who Gave Up $8.25 Million Award Is Going Bankrupt

 

At the height of the financial crisis, when risk assets were imploding and counterparties were in danger of overnight collapse, Deutsche Bank avoided failure and nationalization by fabricating the value of its $130 billion derivative portfolio of "leveraged super senior" trades.

 

Some history: back in 2005, these trades were seen as "the next big thing" in the world of credit derivatives, something which DB at the time was building a massive position in. They were designed to behave like the most senior tranche of a typical collateralized debt obligation, where assets such as mortgages or credit default swaps are pooled to give investors varying degrees of risk exposure. Deutsche became the biggest operator in this market, which involved banks buying insurance against the possibility of default by some of the safest companies.

 

There was just one problem: when it was building up its portfolio, Deutsche never accounted for the possibility of the financial world nearly collapsing. Which is why as the illiquid portfolio was careening, instead marking it to market - an act that would have resulted in the bank's insolvency - DB's risk managers misstated the value of the positions by anywhere from $1.5bn to $3.3bn.

 

Several years later, in 2012, the SEC found out about this, and in 2015 slapped a $55 million fine on Deutsche Bank for this criminal fabrication (of course, nobody went to jail). “At the height of the financial crisis, Deutsche Bank’s financial statements did not reflect the significant risk in these large, complex illiquid positions,” said Andrew Ceresney, then-director of the SEC’s enforcement division (who after his particular "revolving door" is currently a partner in the Litigation Department of Debevoise & Plimpton where he represents the same banks he was prosecuting during his SEC tenure); "Deutsche Bank failed to make reasonable judgments when valuing its positions and lacked robust internal controls over financial reporting", he said.

 

Not the reason why the SEC learned about DB's massive mismarked derivative exposure, is because two former employee whistleblowers, Matthew Simpson and Eric Ben-Artzi, told it: the duo alleged that if Deutsche had accounted properly for its positions, its capital would have fallen to dangerous levels during the financial crisis and it might have required a government bailout to survive. The highest estimate for the unaccounted loss was $12bn. Which explains why Deutsche Bank was desperate to manipulate the numbers.

 

End result: DB got its wristslap with a token fine, the SEC came out looking like it knew what it was doing, and - as we learned back in August 2016 - the two whistleblowers got major awards for helping the SEC collected the $55MM fine, amounting to 15% each.

 

Only, something unexpected happened: one of the whistleblowers who helped expose the false accounting at Deutsche Bank turned down a multimillion-dollar award from the Securities and Exchange Commission in protest against the agency’s failure to punish executives at the bank.

 

In a move that sent shockwaves across the pragmatic Wall Street, Eric Ben-Artzi, the former Deutsche risk officer, told the SEC he is declining his share of a $16.5 million payout — the third largest in the whistleblower program’s history — which represents 30% of the $55 million Deutsche Bank fine.

FBI = Disinformation

 

USA Today Headline: “A Tabloid Got A Trove Of Data On Hunter Biden From Rudy Giuliani. Now, The FBI Is Probing A Possible Disinformation Campaign

 

(The FBI is examining whether the material supplied to the New York Post by Rudy Giuliani is part of a disinformation campaign by Russia.)”

 

 

Seeing that makes me think: with Comey, Strzok, Lisa Page, McCabe et al gone, who initiates and approves such “examinations”? The aforementioned were all involved in setting up the Special Counsel led by former FBI chief Robert Mueller, and that was the most embarrassing episode in the Bureau’s history. Which is saying something given J. Edgar’s penchant for dressing up in women’s clothing.

 

The Mueller probe was all predicated on vague and unproven Russian “disinformation”, and it fittingly ended with it too. With absolutely nothing coming out of the probe, that was based on the Steele Dossier which the protagonists knew was false even before the probe started, Mueller and his right-hand Andrew Weismann in the end had nothing left but “13 Russians” and Julian Assange to “justify” their $30 million, 2 year “effort”.

 

The only people they could lay any -always unproven- blame or suspicion on were those who could not defend themselves against false accusations. And when Concord Management unexpectedly did raise a defense, Mueller was shut down by a US judge in no time. It’s pathetic. Mueller’s a liar and a coward, as I’ve said a dozen times now. He should be exiled to Mars.

 

But what’s worse than his reputation having been destroyed, is that he and his pals hammered the FBI’s reputation as well. So when I read in October 2020 that “The FBI Is Probing A Possible Disinformation Campaign by Russia”, I’m obliged to ask: where does that come from?

 

Because apparently at least some things haven’t changed yet, despite the Mueller horror show. What the FBI needs is a thorough cleansing, not another nonsensical politically driven opaque “investigation” of Russians. The obvious problem, of course, is that the same media who edged on that disaster will also report on this one without an inch of actual journalistic curiosity or integrity.

 

The media are in the same political wing as the FBI. They are all counting down the days until November 3, and they are all counting on their mishaps and misdeeds being forgiven and/or buried deep if Joe Biden wins, something they spare no effort to achieve.

Amid historic absentee voting, rejected mail-in ballots could have 'significant effect' on outcome

 

Up to 3% of first-time mail-in voters see their ballots rejected, potentially upending projected vote totals.

 

Rejected mail-in ballots could play a decisive role in the 2020 election, with a small but critical number of dismissed ballots potentially flipping poll numbers on their head and handing President Trump another surprise victory Nov. 3.

 

Americans are voting by mail in record numbers in 2020, driven largely by months of public health warnings that due to COVID-19, Americans should avoid large gatherings, particularly indoor events, and should avoid touching commonly used surfaces or objects, inescapable realities of in-person polling locations.

 

Though officials including White House coronavirus adviser Anthony Fauci have assured Americans that voting in person this year is safe, a record number of Americans — around 30% — plan to cast their ballots by mail this year. That's up from about 20% in 2016 and is a threefold increase from 2000.

 

Problems with first-time mail-in voters could lead to hundreds of thousands of rejections

 

Polling data indicate that mail-in voters strongly favor Biden, which — when coupled with early voters who also favor the Democratic candidate — could give Biden a further boost in what appears to be his considerable advantage over Trump heading toward Election Day.

 

Yet a not-insignificant percentage of those ballots could end up rejected and uncounted, potentially shaving Biden's edge and giving the president a surprise upset in November.

 

"We know that, historically, one to one and a half percent of mail-in ballots are declined," veteran pollster Scott Rasmussen told Just the News this week.

 

"But we also know that people who fill out a mail-in ballot for the first time are about three times as likely to have their ballot rejected," he continued. "So this year if we have a huge growth in the number of people who vote by mail … it might have a significant effect."

 

The number of rejected ballots through this election season is already comparatively large. An NPR analysis in August found that about 550,000 ballots were rejected during this year's primaries, about 75% more than were rejected during the 2016 general election.

Think Tank Funded by U.S. And Foreign Governments Calls for Suppression of Breitbart, Fox, Conservative Media

 

The German Marshall Fund (GMF), an influential globalist think tank founded by the state of Germany to promote deeper ties between America and Europe — and funded in part by the U.S. government — has branded Breitbart News, Fox News, the Blaze, and the Federalist as “deceptive” news outlets, urging social media platforms to suppress their engagement.

 

The GMF, which claims to be a “non-partisan” organization, relies on the opinions of NewsGuard, an unaccountable Microsoft-linked establishment project that purports to “rate” the validity of news sites.

 

The report divides so-called “deceptive” news outlets into two tiers. “Manipulators,” that the GMF accuses of manipulating facts, and “false content producers,” which publish outright false articles.

 

Both descriptions are used by the GMF to smear conservative news outlets. The “manipulators” listed by the think-tank include Breitbart News, Fox News, the Daily Wire, the Blaze, and Western Journal. The “false content producers” include the Federalist, World Net Daily, and black conservative radio host Wayne Dupree.

 

The think tank complains that too many of these sites enjoy high levels of engagement on Facebook, and argues that “de-amplifying—or adding friction to—the content from a handful of the most dangerous sites could dramatically decrease disinformation online.”

 

The globalist outfit also calls for a “new PBS of the Internet, funded by a fee on online ad revenue.”

 

The GMF’s motives and objectives, which are transparently in favor of widespread censorship of independent and conservative media, were so egregious that they were condemned by the Wall Street Journal editorial board.

 

Via WSJ:

 

The German Marshall Fund (GMF) is an influential think tank based in Washington, D.C., named for U.S. Secretary of State George Marshall’s 1948 plan to help European countries resist Communism. What a shame that in 2020 the outfit is promoting political suppression of conservative news, with state media as a recommended replacement.

 

Such outlets allegedly “pose a threat to informed democratic discourse.” Their content reaches readers because it is “often oppositional to ‘mainstream media’ and so-called elite or conventional wisdom.” The horror!

 

 

The GMF report suggests “a new PBS of the Internet, funded by a fee on online ad revenue.” Critics sometimes refer sarcastically to pro-Trump independent outlets as “state media,” but liberals are promoting genuine state media.

 

Social media has had a disruptive effect on American institutions, for good and ill. But CEO Mark Zuckerberg was right to commit Facebook against political censorship in 2019. Unfortunately, he’s ceded ground since.

Bush Staffers Go All In for Joe Biden with Campaign Ads Attacking Trump

 

Staffers who worked for President George W. Bush are going all in for Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden in hopes of returning the White House back to one of their globalist allies in the political class.

 

The group, 43 Alumni for Biden, has released two campaign ads to prop up the former vice president’s campaign. One of the ads is geared towards Hispanic Americans and claims President Trump is an “existential threat” to their community.

 

The latest ad suggests the Bush staffers “understand the character, the experience, and frankly the empathy required for leadership because we’ve seen it first hand when we all served with the 43rd president.”

 

“But come election day, every last one of us on this team is voting for Biden,” the ad states. “Let’s put Joe Biden in the White House. He’ll be a solid 46.”

 

Biden’s record in the Senate and as vice president is similar to that of Bush’s as president. Biden supported Bush’s war in Iraq and invasion in Afghanistan. Most recently, as Trump said he would bring the remaining American troops in Afghanistan home to the United States by Christmas, Biden wants to leave American troops in the region.

 

More than 4,500 Americans died in Iraq — including more than 3,500 killed in combat — and up to 205,000 Iraqi citizens died in the war since March 2003. Bush’s post-9/11 wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, and intervention in Pakistan have resulted in the deaths of between 480,000 and 507,000 people — including nearly 7,000 American soldiers who had deployed to the regions.

 

Likewise, Biden has vowed to resurrect a Bush-era plan that would allow employers to hire foreign workers regardless of their immigration status and whenever they claim to be short on American workers. Bush’s policy was known as “Any Willing Worker.”

 

Former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge, who worked in the Bush administration, campaigned against Trump in 2016 and is doing so again this year — urging voters to support Biden.
