Huge withdrawal of capital from Switzerland to Middle East – media

 

The United Arab Emirates has become a new safe haven for the wealth of Russia’s sanctioned rich, Swissinfo reports

 

Swiss sanctions against wealthy Russians and their businesses have forced them to move their money elsewhere, most notably the UAE, SwissInfo reported on Friday.

 

Although not an EU member, Switzerland abandoned its traditional neutrality last year and joined the bloc in adopting sanctions against Russian individuals, companies, and organizations and freezing Russian assets in retaliation for Moscow’s military operation in Ukraine.

 

According to Swissinfo, citing a study from the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), a “significant exodus of Russian assets” resulted in a $100 billion rise in wealth deposited in the United Arab Emirates last year. It marks the fastest annual growth of any offshore booking center, it noted.

 

The report pointed out that Swiss private banks were anxious that the trend not spread to clients from other countries. “The key is to persuade the wealthy elites that sanctions against Russia do not dilute Switzerland’s neutrality, which is a key selling point for rich people living in politically unstable countries,” Swissinfo wrote.

 

“Clients still believe, as do I, that Switzerland is a neutral country that follows the fundamental rules of neutrality,” Gregoire Bordier, president of the Association of Swiss Private Banks, told the outlet. “They are not questioning why sanctions target a certain group of people. The question is more ‘where are you going’ rather than ‘where are you now’,” he argued.

 

The refusal of UAE to condemn Russia’s military operation in Ukraine at the United Nations Security Council appears to have been interpreted by high net worth Russians as an invitation, according to media reports. Sources have previously told Reuters that Russian citizens have been moving their funds from Switzerland and the UK to Dubai, after the two nations sanctioned Russia and threatened to freeze the assets of prominent Russian businesspeople and politicians. In the second quarter of 2023, Russians became the third-largest property buyers in Dubai, having been the ninth biggest in 2021, according to data from real estate agent Betterhomes, as cited by the Wall Street Journal.

Russia Puts Its Longest Range Nuke-Capable Missile On Combat Duty, Nicknamed 'Satan II'

 

Russia has on Friday announced its Sarmat ICBMs are on "combat duty". RIA has quoted the head of the country's space agency Roscosmos, Yuri Borisov, to confirm: "the Sarmat strategic complex has been put on combat duty."

 

The nuclear-capable Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile system was previously touted by President Putin as being capable hitting "any target on Earth" - and is widely believed to be by far the longest-range missile in Russia's arsenal (or in the world for that matter). It's been nicknamed by NATO the "Satan II".

 

The Sarmat, which is in a "superheavy" class of missiles, has a short initial boost phase which gives it better ability to elude all conventional anti-missile defense systems, given this results in a much smaller window of time to track it.

 

By design, its super long-range gives it the ability to reach targets thousands of missiles away in the United States or Europe.

 

According to its specifications, it's by far the heaviest missile Russia possesses - at over 200 tons - and heavier than all foreign competitors:

 

This allows it to carry around 15 warheads, up to 750kt. (The bomb US dropped on Hiroshima was 15kt.)

 

This would be enough to wipe out a country the size of France. It can also carry hypersonic missiles, rendering most missile defense systems ineffective.

 

It has reportedly been in development since 2009, and has been in testing phase for several years, some test flights of which may have failed. The Sarmat has been touted as being able to reach speeds of nearly 16,000 mph.

 

Last year, after a successful test, Putin described: "The new complex has the highest tactical and technical characteristics and is capable of overcoming all modern means of anti-missile defense. It has no analogues in the world and won’t have for a long time to come."

“A Dead Man Walking” – Russia State TV Host Accuses Tucker Carlson of Signing His Own Death Warrant

 

Russian State TV host Vladimir Solovyov this week warned viewers that Tucker Carlson will be assassinated for discussing the DC elites’ plans to wage war on Russia by next year.

 

Earlier this week Tucker Carlson warned YouTube host Adam Carola that the Washington DC elites will launch a hot war against Russia by next year.

 

Solovyov theatrically asked, “Who says that? A dead man walking! He sincerely believes that the next step after the accusations and the declaration of impeachment will be an assassination of Trump. But this man, who is currently the most popular English-speaking journalist, signed his own death warrant!”

Why is the IRS Buying .40-Caliber Submachine Guns?

 

When the corporate media asked the IRS why it needed automatic weapons, millions of rounds of ammunition and heavily armed staffers trained in the “use of deadly force,” they said it was for “administrative reasons.”

 

But we now know that the globalists are not just arming the IRS, along with just about every other federal agency. They are militarizing these agencies to the hilt with military-grade weapons not available to American citizens.

 

Why, for instance, would the IRS need armored vehicles, flash-bang grenades loaded with tear gas, and .40-caliber submachine guns?

 

The IRS has been arming up for at least ten years. At the end of 2017, the IRS had 4,487 firearms and 5,062,006 rounds of ammunition in its weapons cache, according to an August 8, 2022, Forbes article, “Inflation Reduction Act Unleashes A Tougher IRS.” You can bet they’ve got a lot more than that stored up six years later in 2023.

 

Here’s an excerpt from the Forbes article:

 

“The Schumer-Manchin tax bill known as the Inflation Reduction Act, which passed the Senate on Sunday, raises taxes and will give the IRS billions to go into what the Wall Street Journal called ‘beast mode.’”

 

The video below by Mark Gifford, a pastor from Lee’s Summit, Missouri, who runs the God Family and Guns YouTube channel, explains why this militarization is taking place.

 

The IRS has been steppng up its purchases of guns and ammunition even more over the last two years, gobbling up nearly $700,000 in ammo in early 2022. That bulk purchase prompted Representatives Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Jeff Duncan (R-SC) to introduce the “Disarm the IRS Act,” to prohibit the IRS from buying ammunition. Of course, this bill was dead on arrival because the Uniparty in Washington, which includes all Democrats and a solid majority of Republicans, are all for a militarized federal government. They hate Americans and do not represent Americans. They are globalists whose allegiance is to the military-industrial-biosecurity complex.

 

The IRS is not alone in this militarization.

 

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has also purchased hundreds of .40-caliber submachine guns, presumably for making raids on independent food producers. They have a special hatred for the Amish (See Food Supply Attack: U.S. Government Raided and Shut Down Golden Valley Farms, an Independent Meat Producer)

Just When You Thought Retired U.S. Generals Are The Biggest Buffoons, A Retired Aussie Takes The Cake

 

There has been some stiff competition for the most inane, delusional analysis about the state of the war between Russia and Ukraine, but former Australian Army Major General Mick Ryan’s recent piece in Foreign Affairs qualifies him as one of the more incompetent “expert” pundits. Remind me, please. What was the last war won by an Australian General? It is a tragedy that Ryan did not have the humility to admit, “I’ve never fought in any war like the one that is unfolding in Ukraine and I have no good evidence to support my optimism.”

 

In lieu of selecting the title, “How Pigs Can Fly at Hypersonic Speeds”, Ryan opted for, How Ukraine Can Win a Long War. (My thanks to one of my Aussie readers, Gary, for directing me to this absurdity.) Evidence of Mick’s tenuous grip on reality is presented in his first paragraph:

 

The country’s (Ukraine) people, having fought and won three major offensive campaigns in 2022, are now using a mix of old Soviet and new Western equipment to fight a campaign in the south.

 

I can understand some 24 year old political science major working at the Institute for the Study of War writing something so absurd, but Mick Ryan was a Major General for God’s sake. Is he really this obtuse? Apparently so. He believes that Ukraine’s failure to penetrate even the first line of Russia’s defenses in southern Ukraine is just an inconsequential blip and has parallels with the First and Second World Wars.

 

By way of comparison, 18 months into World War I, the allies had lost the campaign for Turkey’s eastern peninsula and the Battle of Verdun was still underway. And after the first 18 months of World War II, most of Europe was occupied by the Nazis, Singapore had fallen to Japan, and the United States was fighting on the Bataan Peninsula in the Philippines.

 

Hey Mick, ever heard of the Battle of Moscow or Stalingrad? How about the Battle of Kursk? By December 1942, Russia was closing the noose on the Nazi’s 6th Army at Stalingrad — that was 12 months into WW II. And in month 20 of that Global conflagration, the Soviets triumphed over Germany at Kursk (Putin recently commemorated that victory 80 years ago). Ryan, as is typical of many uneducated Western military leaders, does not understand the critical role the Soviet Union played in sending Germany on the road to ruin and defeat.

 

At the outset of World War II, the United States’ military was neither trained nor equipped to fight a combined arms war on two fronts. But it had a massive industrial base, an ample supply of men to fill the Army, Marine Corps and Navy and the protection of two oceans that permitted the United States to train millions of new personnel without fear of being attacked. That is not Ukraine today. Its industrial base is ravaged, its number of military-aged males is being rapidly depleted and Ukrainian military bases are vulnerable to attacks by Russian missiles. Japan’s attack at Pearl Harbor, as Japanese Admiral Yamamoto noted, awakened a sleeping giant. The Ukrainians, by contrast, are sleep deprived and without good shelter for rest. You cannot awaken a corpse.

National Australia Bank now debanking customers for “mean” speech

 

Effective Nov. 1, 2023, the National Australia Bank (NAB) plans to start debanking customers who engage in "mean" speech.

 

If someone else's feelings become hurt by something a NAB customer says or does, the bank will take away his or her bank account as punishment.

 

According to The Counter Signal, the NAB updated its terms and conditions in such a way as to turn its relationship with customers into something "that resembles that of a schoolteacher or grade school student."

 

Any NAB customer caught "making profane, derogatory, discriminatory or harassing comments to any person," or who inflicts "psychological harm" on someone else, will face the ire of one of Australia's largest banks, which is also one of the "big four" alongside the Australia and New Zealand Banking Group, Commonwealth Bank of Australia (which was owned by the Australian government until 1996), and the Westpac Banking Corporation.

 

"The entire Commonwealth is compromised," tweeted the X (formerly known as Twitter) account of Lion Advocacy's Daniel Ari Freiheit, MBA, LLB.

 

"Look into dual citizenship & consider moving your savings to countries that respect property & speech."

 

 

Don't be "mean" or we'll stop you from buying and selling and accessing your own money

In its terms and conditions update, the NAB spelled out what will happen to any customer who is caught uttering threatening or abusive language, as defined by the bank.

 

"We may reasonably exercise one or more of our rights in these terms and conditions to suspend, cancel or deny an account holder's access or use of the account, card or an electronic banking service if we reasonably consider it appropriate to protect a customer or another person from financial abuse," the update states.

 

The changes could spark a boycott, which is exactly what happened to Scotiabank after it informed military veteran Jeremy MacKenzie that his account was being closed because he was deemed to have exceeded the bank's "risk appetite."

 

"What part of it is too risky for the bank – is that my military pension?" MacKenzie asked the Scotiabank representative who informed him that his account was being shuttered.

 

"I'm afraid I don't have any more detail," the representative responded. "I'm just the messenger."

 

That sure sounds a whole lot like World War II era just following orders, does it not?

 

Not only is MacKenzie no longer to bank with Scotiabank, but he is also barred from ever again visiting a branch of the bank without permission.

 

It turns out that MacKenzie publicly criticized the regime of Justin Trudeau, including the corrupt RCMP which persecuted him and others for participating in the Freedom Convoy of Ottawa.

 

"First they came for the Mercolas and I took NO action. Then they …," one commenter wrote on a story about what happened to Dr. Mercola at the hands of JPMorgan.

 

"If you speak the truth, you will be punished," wrote another. "That is the message the lying left-wing scum are putting out there. Oppose us, reveal our lies and you will be ruthlessly punished. So, how do you like those Democrats now?"

 

It is one thing for Australia and Canada to be engaging in this kind of debanking "censorship," seeing as how neither of those two countries have a constitution like that of the U.S. But there is no excuse for JPMorgan Chase being allowed to persecute an American citizen while operating on U.S. soil.

 

"Suffice it to say Americans are no longer living in the country that was founded by our 'Founding Fathers,'" another commenter wrote. "The Constitution & the Bill of Rights no longer have any more meaning – it is now just an antiquated notion."

Here We Go Again… Experts Call for Universal Booster Campaign Amid Claims Pirola Variant “Could Overwhelm NHS”

 

Here we go again. According to the Mail, “experts” (from Independent SAGE, naturally) have called for everyone to be eligible for another Covid booster amid fears the new “concerning” Pirola Covid variant could overwhelm the NHS.

 

Some pharmacies have also already run out of Covid tests, as health officials urged Brits to stay alert to the new strain.

 

It comes less than 24 hours after health officials U-turned again on the autumn Covid and flu jab drive start date, bringing it forwards from October to September 11th.

 

And in another sign the authorities are taking the heavily mutated strain, Pirola, known scientifically as BA.2.86, more seriously, officials also confirmed Covid testing and community surveillance would be “scaled up” ahead of this winter.

 

But MPs today called for calm and warned against “running down any rabbit holes of fear”.

 

There is currently no evidence that Pirola is any more of a threat than the dozens of strains that have come before it.

 

But scientists have called for a return of pandemic mitigation measures, including mask wearing, and increased ventilation because of the virus’ resurgence.

 

Dr. Trisha Greenhalgh, an internationally-renowned expert in primary care [and noted Covid alarmist], based at the University of Oxford, also suggested everyone should be made eligible for a jab.

 

The professor, who is also a member of Independent SAGE, a group of academics that called for No. 10 to adopt an Australian-style Covid elimination strategy early on in the pandemic, tweeted: “Might be a good idea to vaccinate everyone.”

 

Others have instead urged Ministers to re-consider vaccine eligibility criteria, after the Government ditched plans earlier this month to offer the jabs to under-65s this winter.

 

Professor Lawrence Young, a virologist at Warwick University, told MailOnline: “It stresses the need to keep an eye on Covid infections as we enter the autumn and winter.

 

“With people returning to work and schools reopening after the summer break, we need to raise awareness of the risks of infection particularly for the most vulnerable.

 

“The Government should expedite the autumn vaccination campaign and extend this to people below the age of 65.

 

“There should also be more public information alerting folk to the fact that Covid has not gone away and that other mitigations — face masks, increased ventilation — will be necessary over the coming months.”

 

Health officials are spooked by Covid strain, Pirola, that is quickly spreading globally due to its catalogue of mutations.

 

BA.2.86 carries an array of more than 30 mutations on its spike protein, which is the part of the virus that vaccines were designed to target.

 

Several have unknown functions but others are thought to help the virus evade the immune system.

 

Earlier this month, UKHSA advisers admitted the variant was a concern and revealed its “rapid appearance” suggested “established international transmission”.

New Emails Explain Why Burisma Gave Hunter Biden That Cushy Board Seat

 

Hunter Biden’s laptop is a treasure trove of potentially felonious activity. It’s a roadmap into the entire Biden operation concerning shady deals with corrupt oligarchs whose monies were funneled into shell companies owned by the family. These proceeds soared into the millions of dollars, which explains the over 170 suspicious activity reports from six banks regarding the family’s financial transactions. Joe Biden’s son raked in $20 million from these people—he still didn’t know what was going on? Any parent would know, and Hunter isn’t one to keep his mouth shut about his lucrative exploits. His ego wouldn’t allow it.

 

We have tax and gun charges, which Hunter’s lawyers thought would be settled through a sweetheart plea deal before a judge with common sense tossed it, especially over the secret immunity clause buried in its pages. But there’s also the Foreign Agents Registration Act aspect of this tale, which Hunter knew could be an issue when he and his former associate, Devon Archer, were given cushy positions at Burisma.

 

This position was on top of the $10 million bribe the company reportedly paid Joe and Hunter to provide access and legal protection, the latter of which was honored through the firing of Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin, who was investigating Burisma for corruption at then-Vice President Joe Biden’s order. Joe boasted about how he threatened to withhold aid until this was done.

 

New emails show how chummy Hunter’s relationship was with Obama’s State Department, which garnered further attention when the president’s son met with then-Secretary of State John Kerry weeks before the Shokin firing (via Fox News):

 

Hunter Biden has been tied to multiple officials from the Obama-Biden administration, but an email from the chief of staff of the top State Department official reveals how close Hunter was with the upper echelons of power in the administration.

 

Less than six months before Hunter and his longtime business partner, Devon Archer, became board members at the Burisma energy company in Ukraine, email correspondence reviewed by Fox News Digital shows that a top aide to then-Secretary of State John Kerry was telling some of his fellow State Department officials Kerry and Hunter had a close friendship and that Hunter asked Kerry to speak to his Georgetown University grad students March 18, 2014.

 

In an email from the fall of 2013, David Wade wrote to John R. Bass and Jonathan Finer about the possibility of Kerry meeting with Hunter and his students at "HST," which is the State Department's Harry S. Truman headquarters.

 

[…]

 

The revelation of the email comes as Hunter continues to face questions from federal investigators about potential violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) when his dad was vice president and in the years following the Obama administration. Throughout the Obama administration, Hunter was involved in multiple foreign business dealings and will likely face questions about whether he requested favors on behalf of foreign principals during communications with government officials.

 

Congress enacted FARA to minimize the impact of foreign propaganda in the United States. It requires "certain agents of foreign principals who are engaged in political activities or other activities specified under the statute" to update the Justice Department on their activities periodically. They must also provide receipts and disbursements regarding the work.

 

[…]

 

Kerry isn't the only top official Hunter met with or had ties to during the Obama-Biden administration. In July 2015, Hunter met with Deputy Secretary of State Antony Blinken at his State Department office after they appeared to have rescheduled their meeting from May 2015 due to the death of Hunter's brother, Beau.

 

[…]

 

Hunter and his business partner, Eric Schwerin, also frequently kept in contact with Evan Ryan, who is married to current Secretary of State Antony Blinken. She worked in the Obama White House and State Department and frequently emailed with Hunter and Schwerin about attending White House events and keeping Hunter updated on his dad's schedule. She currently works in the Biden White House.

Whistleblower Steps Forward – Reveals Private Facebook Group Where MI Clerks Discuss STUNNING Evidence of Organized Fraud in 2020 Election

 

Three weeks ago, the MI GOP Director of Election Integrity, Phil O’Halloran, gave Patty McMurray and Jim Hoft of the Gateway Pundit a stunning MI State Police report that was FOIA’d by a Muskegon resident who questioned the outcome of his race in the 2020 election. The report is based on an investigation that was initiated on October 8, 2020, that was eventually taken over by the FBI in 2022.

 

After publishing the report that exposed a massive cover-up by Michigan’s Democrat Attorney General Dana Nessel and Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson of an explosive, statewide investigation by the MI State Police, Muskegon, MI Police Department, we began to receive tips from individuals who read our story and wanted to help us close the gaps in the highly redacted MI State Police report.

 

The whistleblower who contacted us explained that they do not want to be identified over fears of retribution by elected officials in Michigan. They confirmed for us that the details of the police report were accurate but explained there was much more to this story than ONE city clerk receiving boxes of suspicious voter registrations; in fact, clerks across the state of Michigan received boxes and priority mail envelopes stuffed with registrations, many of them with the same signatures, the same last four numbers of their social security number, fake names and fake addresses.

 

For three years, Michigan residents were told by their Attorney General Dana Nessel and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson that they had nothing to worry about, that Michigan’s 2020 election was “the most secure election” in history.

 

AG Nessel and SOS Benson admonished anyone who suggested any sort of widespread voter fraud took place in the state of Michigan or in other swing states where every vote mattered to a party hell-bent on pushing a confused old man campaigning from his basement over the finish line. They told the people who believed they were telling the truth that there was no widespread fraud in Michigan— to ignore any evidence they saw or any stories they read about left-wing judges throwing election fraud cases out of court because they were all part of a “big lie” concocted by Donald Trump and his followers to make Joe Biden look like an illegitimate president.

 

All along, we were being lied to, and now, we have proof they were lying…

 

Today, the Gateway Pundit is releasing the latest evidence we have obtained from our 2020 election fraud investigation…

 

Our whistleblower contacted the Gateway Pundit after reading our first report and revealed that, in private conversations on social media, many Michigan clerks were privately concerned about potential fraud in the 2020 election in the months PRIOR to the November election.

 

CLERKS IN PRIVATE: OBSERVING ONGOING FRAUD

CLERKS IN PUBLIC: “SAFE AND SECURE ELECTION”

 

Many of the Clerks have denied that any voter fraud occurred in the 2020 election. They have parroted the line from the left-wing power establishment that the 2020 General Election was the ‘most secure in history’ despite privately expressing severe doubts as to whether the election was secure at all.

 

President Trump and his allies, including the entire slate of 2020 alternative electors in Michigan, are facing multiple felonies and the threat of imprisonment for expressing the very same doubts publicly that these clerks were expressing privately.

 

WHISTLEBLOWER COMES FORWARD TO THE GATEWAY PUNDIT: PLEASE EXPOSE HYPOCRITE CLERKS WHO CLAIM THERE WAS NO 2020 ELECTION FRAUD

 

In the 2020 election, one Michigan clerk, who is now retired, posted an image of what her fellow clerks called a “care package” from a left-wing campaign and organizing group that occasionally went by the name GBI Strategies and other times went by the name “Empower Michigan.”

Chinese firms invest heavily in Israel – and are eager to do more

 

Chinese companies do a lot of business globally and specifically in Israel – and are eager to do more. A visit to the country illuminates the reach and realities.

 

Days before the opening of Tel Aviv’s Metro Red Line, largely built and now partially managed by Chinese companies, a visit to China revealed just how wide and deep the Israeli-Chinese business connection is.

 

The eight-day tour of corporate headquarters and construction projects in Beijing, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Macao, and other locales was sponsored by the Tel Aviv-based Chinese Enterprises Association in Israel, which represents major Chinese companies with business interests in Israel.

 

The Israeli projects listed are a small fraction of the work these Chinese behemoths are conducting in their homeland and around the world. China State Construction is the world’s largest builder, with more than 380,000 employees, and 2023 revenues that will exceed $300 billion. It ranks 13th on Fortune magazine’s Global 500. The company is mostly owned by the Chinese government, but about one-quarter of its shares are traded on the Shanghai and Hong Kong stock exchanges.

 

It has built 7,000 projects in 130 countries, from the Addis Ababa National Stadium in Ethiopia to Zaire’s Stade des Martyrs, as well as Trump International Golf Club in Dubai, and the Great Mosque of Algiers. We visited the Beijing National Aquatics Center, the bubble-sided “Cube” swimming and diving complex that China State built for the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

Federal judge rules Texas law requiring age verification on porn sites First Amendment violation

 

The Texas law also requires such sites to prominently display warning labels about what some consider the dangers of porn.

 

Afederal judge has ruled that a Texas law requiring pornography sites to install age-verification measures violates the Constitution’s First Amendment prohibition against free-speech restrictions.

 

The law also requires such sites to prominently display warning labels about what some consider the dangers of porn.

 

The ruling is in connection to a lawsuit seeking to overturn the Texas legislation filed earlier this month by the Free Speech Coalition.

 

The coalition includes the parent company of Pornhub, a popular pornography website; adult industry advocacy groups and an adult performer, according to Variety.com.

 

The law was set to go into effect Friday and would have required porn sites to use “reasonable age verification methods” to “verify that an individual attempting to access the material is 18 years of age or older.”

BRICS another Rothschild enterprise?

 

Iran, Argentina, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Turkey have applied to join BRICS. Founding members are Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa

 

Jair Bolsonaro, who recently “lost” the election in Brazil, the Selection Committee appointed Lula, wanted “Braxit” from BRICS.

Bolsonara is also a conservative Christian and loves Israel, like all the Evangelicals in America.

 

Bolsonaro was completing the process, started by previous President Michel Temer, taking Brazil back to the North-West axis controlled by the U.S.

Now we can clearly see why Bolsonaro had to go. They tried to kill him, but he survived the assassination attempt.

 

BRICS is a ROTHSCHILD smokescreen. They have sucked the West dry and now want to transfer their wealth to BRICS to create ever bigger profits.

 

ROTHSCHILD are moving out of the US Dollar, the global reserve currency, into gold and ‘other currencies’. They are looking to get ahead of the downward trend curve, and cash out before a global collapse, and use gold to pick up the pieces.

 

In recent decades more and more Chinese economists and budding entrepreneurs have closely studied the Rothschilds.

At the same time, members of the Rothschild family have looked to a rising China for new business opportunities.

 

China is fascinated with the Rothschilds and Jewish business practices.

Chinese books on Jewish business practices with titles such as ‘How do Jewish People win?’, Jewish Business Bible’, ‘Jewish Businessmen’s Wisdom’, ‘Jewish Business Teachings’, ‘The Legend of Jewish Wealth’, ‘Jewish Family Education’, ‘The Illustrated Jewish Wisdom Book’ can all be found in the business sections of bookstores across China.

 

With the increasing interest in business education in China, and a rise in sales of self-help literature, the production of business guides to the TALMUD has exploded. The guides are like the Chinese equivalents of books such as ‘Sun Tzu and the Art of Business’.

In much of the United States, if a person is convicted of a felony after conviction on two prior felonies, they receive a severe prison sentence. It’s known as the Three Strikes Law. But if you are the largest bank in the United States, charged by the U.S. Department of Justice with five felony counts since 2014, along with other major crimes for which you are given a non-prosecution agreement, not only do you not get harsher treatment for each new criminal act, but you actually get two federal law enforcement agencies doing damage control for you.

 

We’re talking about JPMorgan Chase and its cozy relationship with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and certain officials within the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).

 

Take, for example, what happened on June 22 of this year. The SEC issued a Cease-and-Desist order against the securities unit of JPMorgan Chase for permanently deleting 47 million emails, many of which were under subpoena or document requests from its regulators, including the SEC. (One could be forgiven for thinking that sounds a lot like obstruction of justice by a serial lawbreaker. JPMorgan Chase said Deletion-Gate was all one big accident.)

 

Despite the unprecedented criminal history of this bank – which garnered it a comparison to the Gambino crime family in a book by two trial lawyers – the SEC imposed a minor fine of $4 million for disappearing 47 million emails. That’s 8.5 cents for each permanently destroyed email that might have brought more criminal charges against the bank.

 

Making the SEC look like a complete patsy for JPMorgan Chase and its Chairman and CEO, Jamie Dimon, the SEC did not issue its customary press release for this settlement agreement. We checked the listing of press releases issued in June and there was nothing about this 47 million email disappearance. We contacted the SEC and inquired if, indeed, they had failed to issue a press release. The SEC confirmed that no press release had been issued. We sent a new email asking why the SEC has skipped the customary press release. We heard nothing further.

 

Federal regulators are not the only folks that needed to get their hands on those 47 million emails at a criminally-inclined JPMorgan Chase. The Attorney General of the U.S. Virgin Islands has been taking discovery in federal court for months, with demands for emails and other documents, in its lawsuit charging the bank with “actively participating” in the sex trafficking of minors with Jeffrey Epstein. The U.S. Virgin Islands has produced evidence that the bank facilitated 9,000 financial transactions totaling more than $2.4 billion for Epstein in his accounts at the bank, which allowed him to pay off his victims, procurers and other accomplices for more than a decade. According to the U.S. Virgin Islands, JPMorgan Chase also failed to file the legally-mandated Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) as Epstein pulled hundreds of thousands of dollars in hard cash from his accounts, year after year. (JPMorgan Chase’s first two felony counts in 2014 resulted from laundering money for Ponzi mastermind Bernie Madoff and failing to file Suspicious Activity Reports in the U.S. — despite telling U.K. regulators that Madoff might be running a Ponzi scheme.)

 

Epstein was charged by the DOJ with sex trafficking of minors in July 2019, after it looked the other way for 12 years. It took a James Patterson book, Filthy Rich, and an in-depth series of articles by investigative reporter Julie Brown in the Miami Herald in 2018 for the DOJ to be shamed into bringing criminal charges against Epstein in 2019, despite having a file filled with the testimony of dozens of victims since 2007. The DOJ has yet to bring charges against Epstein’s very accommodating bank, JPMorgan Chase.

 

The absence of the customary press release in June from the SEC is reminiscent of what the DOJ did in 2020 when JPMorgan Chase notched its fourth and fifth felony count in its belt.
