Watch out Bernie! Brnie Sanders Just Threatened Banksters " I Will Break Up the Big Banks"-- [picture, Video]

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


By Bernie Sanders, Reader Supported News

20 August 15

 

all Street’s greed, recklessness, and illegal behavior drove this country into the worst recession since the Great Depression. For too long, this billionaire class has corrupted our political system. We must act decisively to make our economy fair again.

Wall Street’s dangerous manipulation of our economy has helped divert most of all new income to the top one percent, contributing to the most unequal level of wealth and income distribution of any major country on earth.

Today, we live in the richest country in the history of the world, but that reality means little because much of that wealth is controlled by a tiny handful of individuals. The skyrocketing level of income and wealth inequality is not only grotesque and immoral, it is economically unsustainable.

The reality is that for the past 40 years, Wall Street and the billionaire class have rigged the rules to redistribute wealth and income to the wealthiest and most powerful people in this country. As a result, Wall Street exists as an island unto itself, benefiting only the extremely wealthy while using our money to get rich.

Tax Wall Street Speculation to Make College Tuition Free

Too many firms on Wall Street using high-speed trading to try to make a quick buck. But it’s risky and unproductive. Banks can execute thousands of stock trades a second thanks to sophisticated computer algorithms.

Wall Street can keep doing this if it wants—but they’ll have to pay a tax on every one of those trades. And this tax on Wall Street speculation would be enough to pay for my plan to make tuition free at every public college or university.

Break Up Banks that are Too Big to Fail

In the midst of all of this grotesque inequality in our country sits a handful of financial institutions that are still so large, the failure of any one would cause catastrophic risk to millions of Americans and send the world economy into crisis.

Most of the major Wall Street financial institutions that we bailed out because they were “too big to fail” are now bigger than they used to be. The six largest financial institutions now have assets equivalent to nearly 60% of our GDP, issue 35% of the mortgages, and oversee 65% of credit cards.

My view: If it’s too big to fail, it’s too big to exist. That’s the bottom line. As president, I will break up the big banks and restore some sanity to our banking system.

Make Banking Boring: Reign in the Recklessness

Banking should be boring. It shouldn’t be about making as much profit as possible by gambling on esoteric financial products. The goal of banking should be to provide affordable loans to small and medium-sized businesses in the productive economy, and to Americans who need to purchase homes and cars.

That is not what these huge financial institutions are doing. They’re instead creating an economy which is not sustainable from a moral, economic, or political perspective. It’s a rigged economy that must be changed in fundamental ways.

We need banks that invest in the job-creating productive economy. We do not need more speculation with the American economy hanging in the balance.

Unrig the Tax System

Our tax system is wildly unfair — rigged to benefit the very rich. Major corporations that earn billions in profits stash their money in tax havens and pay nothing in federal income taxes, while billionaire hedge fund managers pay a lower effective tax rate than nurses or teachers.

In order to reverse the massive transfer of wealth and income from the middle class to the very rich that we have seen in recent years, we need real tax reform which makes the wealthy and profitable corporations begin to pay their fair share of taxes. It is fiscally irresponsible that the U.S. Treasury loses about $100 billion a year because corporations and the rich stash their profits in the Cayman Islands, Bermuda and other tax havens.

We need a tax system which is fair and progressive. Children should not go hungry in this country while profitable corporations and the wealthy avoid their tax responsibilities.

We Can Do This

<iframe width=”640″ height=”360″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/6Xe-3-oA9Eo” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

The issue of wealth and income inequality is the great moral issue of our time, it is the great economic issue of our time, and it is the great political issue of our time.

I can understand how this might feel daunting. We are up against a billionaire class that has bought our political system to enrich itself, and is now faced with the breakup of their oligarchy.

Know this: when people come together to organize, we can beat any amount of money thrown around by the Koch Brothers, Goldman Sachs executives, or anyone else.

Our political revolution is underway, and when it is built, we will win not just against Wall Street, but we will win the White House.

Add your name to endorse Sanders Plan to take on Wall Street and the billionaire class.

      Between what Bernie Sanders in saying and what Donald trump is saying…if you really listen…what they are saying is NOT that different and is aimed, by both at the same “crowd”…including, Jeb and his very well connected sponsors, backers and “advisors” in and out of his campaign…the same “crowd” tied to “41″ and later “43″…and his, JEB’s neo-con/CIA links are just as suspicious…as those of “41″ and “43….They, Sanders and Trump, are in their own way “weaving” and setting a tone of showing a reality and truth that has NOT been seen or heard in a US presidential election, in a VERY, VERY long time…and when such talk is “so-close to the edge of truth”and reality (!!!) that when the “thermometer” snaps or breaks and things get real “nasty” and “ugly”..and “random”…”unexpected” “events” start happening or take place…this is a reality of extremely hi-level politics, especially of that of a world power…now or 2000 years ago….so you are right, “Watch Out”…to both I suggest, no walks thru kitchen pantries, no standing in moving open cars and no biking/cycling outings !!! Most people have NO idea how much power. money and influence exist and “moves” between and within corporate/financial sectors and gov. sectors….

      • CrowPie

        Trump has also fingered the insurance companies…….so I’m just waiting to see what happens next.

        • david t. krall

          Yes !!!! Imagine as if this is like a modern version of what “could have been, say in 1940, or 1948 or 1952 if Joe Kennedy Sr. ran for president…it is the SAME ‘almost” thing…Joe, sr, was going to run in 1940, after being promised by FDR that he, FDR, would NOT seek a 3rd consecutive term…and thus history went in another direction…like Papa Joe…in 2015 we have two…but in Mr. Trump specifically we have somebody also of enormous wealth,…enormous INDEPENDENT-self-made wealth….and that is real, REAL SERIOUS problem and perceived and believed one by many/various ,very powerful vested and entrenched interlocked, intertwined and interdependent interests….that believe that they have control ( & they do unfortunately to a large degree-& have shown it at times and to prior presidents !) of the levers that move this nation…
          This is deep: When a person running for president, of enormous independent self-made wealth that even rivals and is greater, even then the combined wealth of the backers of his biggest and intentionally often mentioned opponent, neo-con backed Jeb Bush, in an interview, -TELLS– TIme Magazine , not just saying it -IN- Time Magazine, BUT –TELLING— TIME MAGAZINE, one of the bastions and outlets ( the others being the NYT, The Wall Street Journal, Barron’s, Forbes) for THE Establishment TITANS who run this country that he, Donald Trump, is not and will not become a puppet…..THAT IS SOME DEEP CRAP…that should be dated and noted by everybody…you can bet those words are still bouncing off walls within boardrooms, conference rooms. hi-level tiers of interlocked interests also within related gov. agencies and depts and sectors…he actually may be more tricky that I even thought…I just realized that by being so blunt with such words…he is in a “reverse” or “inverse” kind of way covering himself and at the same time saying here’comes somebody who will (or might be) BE president and won’t be anybody’s fool nor underestimate the power of “potential” enemies (like JFK did…) When you factor in the positive things that Roger Stone stills says about him, even though he and Mr. Trump “parted ways” (I suspect over campaign strategy not pol views/philosophy) and also Jesse Ventura… I mention this because you (NOT YOU–but all you out there) have to really take note of the recent published writings of what Stone and Ventura have written within the last few years (I’ve added their works to my library) …and judging by the nuance and tone of Trump going after JEB and singling him out, aka the top/designated “lead dog” is right out of “The Art of War”…non-stop attack, “get in his face” & head…make him think about you !!! Belittle him…build yourself up and “play-with” and tweak Jeb in a timely calculated way…just like announcing to run for President the day after JEB and over-shadowing him ever since…kind of like shadowing him and yet also by design and default build your self-up at the same time…this is straight out of “The Art of War”… (or parts of it !) Just like Mohammed Ali or Joe Namath…attack from a belief and position of supreme confidence, mess with the the “mind” of your opponent…”push his buttons” and keep on going non-stop…while still staying focused on the long-term goal…keep in mind (you already know this!) that many, many people who sit on the boards of e.g. Insurance Companies also sit on the boards of Aerospace, Banking, Financial Houses, Oil, Steel, Pharmaceutical companies, etc.,…like one big floating crap game…and lets not forget “pipelines” and links to and from defense, national security and intelligence agencies…THIS IS SOME DEEP XXXX HERE, and he is already sending a loud, unmistakable message….it may seem like “bluster” to CNN or MSNBC but from what I see it is all calculated like a smart aspiring championship pro-level boxer…or quarterback singling out the opponent or team he knows he needs to beat and ultimately overcome…..this really not an endorsement, as more of an observation of the continuing interplay and unfolding dynamic is it is playing out…like a multi-sided game of Chess or Risk…

          • CrowPie

            I understand what your saying. Trump certainly is something to observe. He has brought hours of entertainment to my home since his entry into the race. It’s a new laugh every day…..and I fear that is the point. For while he has been weeding out the weaklings….Ted Cruz has begun climbing in the polls. Because after all…behind Trumps brash and outlandish behavior…Cruz looks a little less “let’s shut down the country and read Dr. Suess,”…..doesn’t he?

            My guts tell me that Cruz is a hard core, histrionic, narcissistic and anti-social brat. In other words…..a sociopath. I do not want him to be in charge of dog catching…..any power would be wielded unwisely by Cruz.

            I would love to see a Super-hero President swoop down and save our country with some bad hair and spittle….but I fear braggadocio will only go so far.

            I understand that Trump has not sworn to NOT oppose a fellow republican should he NOT receive the nomination, leaving open the possibility that he may run on an independent ticket. This very question say “EVERYTHING” about the republican party as far as I am concerned. I would never put a ‘club/party’ before the prudent decision…..and this seems to be what they demand as their first rule…..Party First, right?

            Anyway, if I felt Trump could actually accomplish the “Grand Bargain of Trumpishness” that he is promising then I might view him as a little more than a bigot braggot……but he has a way to go before I can adjust my piddly opinion.

            This is my prediction our possibilities.

            Ted Cruz will be the republican nominee (God Help Us!)
            Biden will be the Democratic nominee
            and a minor player (not Trump) will run third party.

            Why, do you ask? Because at the last minute Trump will feign a slight of massive proportions….casuing him to back out and ‘Deny” the U.S. of all his supernatural advice.

            It’s all been planned you see…..just ask the ‘other billionaries’…..the Koch Brothers.

            • david t. krall

              Good stuff !!!! My (just my opinion) view is that everything will take a “step-up” sometime after Labor Day….I guess is that Biden will NOT run…that (out a remorse. a “promise” to his son) is the WORST ‘reason” to run…regardless of what is slowing down Hillary and how she is REACTING to this email problem, no doubt Biden is glued, tuned in and making calls..and receiving calls and input…about what, where and when to make or not make his move…BUT that “plea-promise” is on his shoulder (& in his heart …and head ) and getting heavier by the hour…and that is the worst reason to run…if so, he has a lot of work to do…BUT he’s been down this road before…and I believe also “almost” on 1992…I think he had to “drop out” because of some mini-strokes right before he was going to announce then…I feel he should have made his move for 2016, months ago…but if this email thing takes a turn against Hillary…either way…some will come to him and ask his to run…and even some possible re-defections back to him, who earlier went over to Hillary…when it seemed he (Biden) was NOT going to run…I always wondered….why not a Clinton-Biden 2106 ticket…I don’t think the law apples for or to a VP- NOT to be a nominated and/or not to be re-elected VP more than 2 terms… I assume that ONLY applies to the president/presidency…not the VP????
              Yes you are right about Cruz…I agree…but perhaps I’ve “modified” my feelings slightly about him, after listening to him…BUT overall you are correct…what he did a few years ago was NOT necessary (shutting down the gov)….I am not so much a supporter of Trump but a fascinated observer watching the interplay and dynamic of him vs. the JEB/neo-con crowd aka The Jebsters…I really watch and listen to the news (you KNOW this !!!) and follow and know history (you know
              this !) but what I am most fascinated and curious about is the odd, almost dichotomy-like behavior and anomaly between how people react to things and how they are told how to react to certain things as if in a dictatorship or “hidden” or subtle influence of projecting a perception. Perfect example…when, before he was an announced candidate for President, when Donald Trump always walked onto a talk show as an invited guest…there was presence…you saw it, you felt it, you sensed it…from the host (whoever they were) , and from the audience…a very uncommon presence….now when he announced he was a candidate for President for the Republican nomination, the very next day after JEB Bush, it was as if ( & I’m NOT reading into this !) buttons were pushed, and a “non- memo” was passed around on the various (bit not all) US news outlets…it is very strange for man to be regarded with respect and highly/HUGELY successful and recognized as such, almost as if a “switch” was activated to go “negative”: Right after he announced, on MSNBC and even more so on CNN, round table discussions strangely NEVER, ever discussed his background, business and financial skills, large bus. “empire” knowledge and familiarity of various world and bus. leaders,etc. what he could or would bring “to the table in and during a US presidential election. YES that was never mentioned or brought up. I watched it while it was happening ..or not happening (!!!) and no footage of his NY bus and/or his father, a well known NYC developer…no graphics, no footage but only some really bizarre immediate…almost spontaneous vitriolic ( yes I watched with enlightened fascination) comments about somebody who is “in their back yard” (“their boy”, so to speak) of NYC…this seemed very odd to me…the clincher was watching and hearing Gloria Berger (CNN) among others (on CNN, MSNBC, CNBC) really within minutes of his announcement call him a clown, a buffoon and goof…and even (and this is just right after, within minutes after his announcement) either she or one of her colleagues (Wolf Blitzer?) held up a newspaper of a NY tabloid newspaper of “the Donald” in a circus clown outfit on the cover…regarding a guy ( who initially with his father) rebuilt major parts of NY and NYC and in the process amassed 13+ BILLION Dollar fortune…rivaling even the Rockefellers…now it is difficult for me to believe that a man can be so astute, dedicated and focused as to amass that kind of fortune and perceived as such would “within the blink of an eye” ( or was it an “announcement”?) now be considered a clown or a buffoon…It is odd especially when he has appeared with numerous other world leaders and other bus. leaders ar various expositions forums and symposiums in other nations e.g. Russia, India or Brazil, etc. It was/is as if “something” was “put into play”…
              Yes (!!!) he and Bernie Sanders are really on the same page….and if Bernie Sanders had 13+Billion Dollars he would also be under attack, and ridiculed…in his case as a marxist, radical and anti-capitalist…he would and will only be a threat if he survives well into the race and then the emasculation and attack would just get uglier and like McCarthy, Or MCGovern or more like RFK he would NOT be allowed to go “further”….you get my drift here? The Donald has no conventional political or elective base…so its his own show and 13Billion$’s can go pretty far in an election and really be used to fend off your enemies, and bring attention to your own message …especially when it over-shadows the combined wealth not only of you opponents BUT the combined wealth of the backers, sponsors and handlers of your most perceived enemy and rival, and that perception is totally mutual…and is a growing pol hate…it must NOT be overlooked regarding the bus., financial and political links of The Jebsters to “41″ and “43″ but also to deep and major deals and agendas of their own…that have far-reach and deep consequences…The Bluster is mostly calculated to minimize damage control but to also ‘set the territory and the hi-ground”, thus neutralizing the message of your opponents, especially the lead one…JFK/RFK to a certain degree did this in 1960, when they were underdogs, and perceived that way by Stevenson, Humphrey, LBJ and Nixon, and used it to their maximal advantage (also with their money–sound familiar?) ..and giving you maximal advantage of attention ( no matter how risky or the risks /”short-term cost”) to set the overt agenda or its flow or direction…this is not the mind or nature of a buffoon or a clown….but is working with the political tools that he started out with and using his weaknesses as perceived by his enemies as a surprise advantage, back at them and still eclipsing with deliberate and calculated intent The Jebsters….( and their powerful allies). I have have said elsewhere ( and like the TIME Mag. reference above) this a deep/interesting insight: At that stratosphere-like level of wealth, power, influence-in political, economic/financial, and social circles where money, reputations, influence move silently and open and close BIG doors quietly and discretely…it is NOT a far-out assumption to consider that MR. Trump and his own sphere and circle of associates, due to their world-wide range of bus. enterprises including in the the U.S. have already ‘dealt with”, “mingled”, “bumped into” and if not prior, certainly now “bumping heads WITH” some if not most of the real core backers, heavy hitters and sponsors of “almost 45″ who are /were tied to “41″ and “43″ very well connected in their own right and of equal international connections, perhaps even “deeper”…This is NOT lost on “The Donald”…he has (like Joe Kennedy. Sr) his own independent links and sources of info, and “gossip”…deep stuff…The “2nd Quarter” starts in a few weeks….get your pizza and pop-corm ready……

            • david t. krall

              VP Joe Biden had lunch with the President today…he is getting close to making that decision…I still think he has A LOT of work to do due to waiting so long…now concrete follow-up and return calls will take place….these are the ones that will really count and consist of blunt and candid conversations…I am leaning to him NOT running…the longer he waits to announce the more difficult it will be for him…if he announces it will be by the 3rd week of September….I don’t know how it works if he announces sooner ( or latter) to get a seat at the First Democratic Debate in October….I assume by then he will have filed all the nec paperwork…
              You know that hi-level asst. to Hillary, Saudi-US born..dark hair…she’s is, believe the one who really screwed up this email “thing”for Hlllary…you know who her husband is???? This is really weird…remember that really bizarre US House Rep/Congressman a few years ago, about 3, maybe 4 (?) years ago who was taking pictures of “himself” and sending them out via the internet and got caught..a weirdo and an equally odd-looking guy…you remember him? That is HER husband…a very odd confluence here….this is really a bizarre side-bar…

            • CrowPie

              Anthony Weiner, former member of the House of Representatives from New York City. I know, right? :lol:

              You have made excellent points and I agree with 95% of what you said.

              I too watch not only for the history and informational wealth, but for the entertainment value. And yes, if a billionaire you do business with tells you that he needs your support…..tv air time….venue…..printing or speech writing services……you help. It’s just good business. And we all know money may not make the world go round, but it definitely greases the wheel.

              Yes….I can see Trump sitting in a pair of shorts, gigantic cigar in hand, with an empty glass of Grey Goose beside him saying, ” You know, I have enough money to buy this election regardless of the fact that “W” owns all the voting machines.

              I almost think Trump did it on a lark, or worse, a bet. Either way, He is determined to make a MOCKERY of the entire process, all the while making SOMEONE ELSE look good.

              No one has brought up the fact that Trump has all this money from his investments and as President he would NOT be allowed to have access to ANY information on those investments, properties or otherwise. Someone else would manage his money.

              You don’t REALLY believe that he would take such a piddly amount of pay (that would be a tremendous monetary loss if he played by the rules) for four years AND allow someone else control over his entire fortune. Do you?

              I don’t think he is intent on becoming President at all…..He has Cruz in his pocket and a ring I his nose. (That’s why they have been swapping compliments and blowing each other kisses.) Trump has steamed over everyone else.

            • david t. krall

              Yes…you are right ! I think he is really running to stop Bush and his war-loving neo-con oil-drinking ultra-greedy/ (un) partiotic sponsors, handlers and backers…some of whom I am very familiar with, who are (as close friend of mine says are “bad dudes” as in evil, self-entitled and feel no need for accountability when it suits them)…
              Look at who’s he ridiculed and mocked…McCain, Lindsey Graham and Jeb, aka “almost 45″…all bent on war and massive domestic surveillance and equally massive unaccountable intelligence operations…all of this in the “name” of supposed anti-terror”…You noticed he, rightly, praises the military, but, if you also noticed he “quietly” says nothing regarding such things or any praise or words about the CIA or the NSA, etc…
              That tells me ‘something”…he’s is or just might be more tuned into “things” behind the scenes more that we think….and think about it…when he says Linsdey Graham is somebody who wants to just start a war and just bomb and bomb…he is really saying something (again-some deep crap) that is also meant for and directed to the nuts/neo-cons who LIndsey Graham talks to, for supposed truthful intelligence data but are just corrupt sectors within the CIA, NSA and some related specific elements of the military who are also directly tied to the ‘almost 45″ campaign, The Jebsters, who do go back to “41″ and “43″…the way I say it here helps , I hope, to explain the how and why of the deep intertwined connections of what I am pointing out…I’ll bet that the agenda of the neo-cons for, or in the middle east, the Ukraine and Russia and the sanctions (put in place and pressured on Obama by these war/tension thriving neo-cons like Victoria Neuland and others in “State” and CIA) are “pinching” Trump many others in that Stratosphere of finance where Donald Trump and many others, including him and his associates in that reality thrive and deal…When “the Donald”says Putin hates Obama…and that he would get along better with him….break the code…!!!
              What he is really saying is that Obama can’t get along with Putin ( & other world leaders) is because he is “tethered” by forces controlling him and setting an agenda, ergo Obama is a puppet…and HE, TRUMP, would not be, and thus would be able to get along with other world leaders due to his independence…this is part of the “hints” that his has been ‘dropping” within this so-called “bluster” and nobody has “read between the lines” of what he is saying…he just said the other day that he would, if elected go after the hedge-fund managers…that is the backbone of what Bernie Sanders said when he stated he would break-up the big banks…which includes, Trump and Sanders must both realize, are the reinsurers of these banks…the Biggest Guns on Wall Street and the Hedgefund Mrgs/Crowd… (you ever watch the “Kaiser Report” and/or “Boom and Bust” on RT? very good shows)
              Sanders and Trump should meet and plot a joint strategy…but first “watch their backs” with some major loyal, trustworthy security…I know Trump already has this…but if these two could get together…No way ! what I am ever thinking about!!!???…they would BOTH be gone ASAP (just like MLK and RFK) and it would be explained as some “freak accident” or “random event”…You know this…that’s what would really happen if such a “meeting” ever took place…those behind the scenes know where such a meeting would indeed lead to and be directed….Jeb looks like he’s really feeling the heat & pressure of all that 150+ million dollars from his backers and sponsors…and these guys are not real nice guys…judging from their past history…when Donald Trump calls major lenders “real killers” he just might be dropping a “double-meaning” “joke” with some serious under the radar meaning due to the deep and interdependent/interlocking links and ties between hi-level fiance and intelligence agencies….Sometimes people speak, even in boisterous ways ( which might itself be intentional) is some kind of a code…like some kind of self-talk or reverse talk…you get what I mean here? There are so many things that he is ‘saying”-between the lines that go with what he is overtly/openly saying that it is mindboggling that a Presidential candidate would and could be so blunt about the mechanics and under the table maneuvers of hi-level politics…money can corrupt, BUTif it’s your own, you can be honest as much as you can and never be anybody’s puppet…and we know what happens to those who won’t and will not dance to the strings ( and “music) of a “higher-power”…those who chose or choose not to be puppets….are “cast aside” one way or the other….

            • CrowPie

              Your right.

              “who are (as close friend of mine says are “bad dudes” as in evil, self-entitled and feel no need for accountability when it suits them)…”

              That is the exact truth. Not one of those politicians have clean hands or tender hearts for the people of the country. So….whomever Trump is (maybe all) hell-bent on keeping out of office….I suspect will be a good thing. But I do have grave concerns about whether he cares about anyone or thing but himself ….just like the rest.

              Your right about how he ‘says things’ that have a double meaning. I have to admit that my mind went forthwith to a vision of all those bankers that suddenly fell from high rise windows when he made the statement about killer bankers. :eek: However, one may hold us guilty of reading into a comment that meant nothing outside of its face value.

              And your right about their love of war. Haliburton is one of the largest contractors for the work available to U.S. citizens,….and we all know who owns and profits most from that company. Their business is based on the hope of war and conflicts.

              But the fact is…no one would want the position of President based solely on the money. The hidden power behind that office is tremendous. That reason alone is enough to make me suspect ‘anyone’ who wanted the position. :lol:

              Admittedly I have high standards for such an office. But then…..I think we should expect the highest standards of the person seeking the position. They better be able to go into negotiations without insulting the women in the room and calling everyone else ‘stupid’ because he can’t buy a better lexicon.

            Oh ! about that weirdo…yes, that’s him…I ‘d like to know about HER background !!!! l have to some digging about her…You have to watch ( whenever you can) those shows I mentioned…also..”Going Underground” and a few others (on RT) …On F-24, keep an eye out for The Debate and also The interview…most of the time all these show have really relevant data you WON’T see or hear ( at all) on US news outlets…also the The Asian/Japanese News Channel and The BBC can give out data not always heard on US news outlets…The top of the hour news on these channels is interesting also in terms of news/story priority and what “else” is going on, again that we don’t always hear on US news sources ..and also “in the reverse” what is going on or emphasized or being told in the USA…to me the best source is having the MOST sources and using your brain, logic and common sense…something CNN and sometimes MSNBC thinks we don’t have…FOX, aside from some the of the politics or slant actually does a better job sometimes, if not just because of a variation of perspective…sometimes I just “think “past” alongside”, next to” or “above” HOW it is being said and/or why…that helps a lot…kind of like Rubic’s cube of the mind when wondering, seeing and hearing what we are being told…that make sense? I’ve come across dozens and dozens times where.e.g. something on CNN was said in such a way that was beyond casual oversight or just a casual omission on any number of topics…have great day !

              Excellent..great points…The Carlysile Group ( I spell that right?), is sister org…(YES!!!) Haliburton..and some others…I would NOT be surprised if a group/ front /network of dummy banks were set up in/across the Middle-east just like in SE Asia and in the Caribbean by a corrupt intell/defense/criminal financial network to launder money, drugs and arms to perpetuate “their” agenda (including proxy FAKE “terror” armies/thugs/militis/cadres like ISIS and/or AlQada or elements within them. just like the mega-secret “war”/op/program—OUR prior “Jihad” against Castro…e.g. huge covert ops like Operation Mongoose and JM/Wave..2 of many were large clandestine/covert ops carried out terror in the name of anti-terror or anti-communism. See also proposals, which JFK strenuously and vigorously voided and denied like Operation Northwoods, and also, Operation Gladdio and the P-2, Operation Ohio, and Operation Phoenix…just a small sample of how CIA/NATO/Pentagon sectors applied, carried out and had spread murder andcarried out a severely dysfunctional and duplicitous agenda in different parts of the world, in the name of anti-terror/anti-communism..ISIS/AlQada or parts of them are serving in a”deep” way, the same functions as prior thugs and monsters were “recruited”, trained, funded and sponsored by this same “HYDRA” under a very similar cleaver cover and blanket of covert operations, national security and “plausible deniability”…this is ONE of the reasons and motives of how/why JFK was killed…he was trying to shut this crap down…massive gun/weapons running. drug enterprises, banks used as covers (e.g. Nugan-Hand Bank, The Castle Bank, The Double Check Corporation)…check out/search/goggle Paul Halliwell, part of that WW2/post WW2 powerful legal/banking/corp/Intell network aka A Oligarchal Cartel ( you like that term? –Tom Dewey, The Dulles Brothers, Otto Doering, Prescott Bush (!), many, many others…) Halliwell was known as a financial /banking genius and was part of this network…he and his closest team members knew how to “move” money…even to the point of creating a large corporation ( there were others) and having it placed in/on the Dow and NYSE..The Dulles Brothers, Dewey and others loved it One of several “behind the scenes” ways to fund their Network or Cartel with huge amounts of money.”Mary Carter Paint Company”, was partially formed with like minded UK bankers and UK hi-level Intell officials…”Mary Carter Paint Co.” evolved in Resorts International….and “the rest is history”!!! keep that $$$ rolling !!! …that’s one heck of “a group of connected dots !!!…isn’t it….Halliwell and his associates were known as financial geniuses and were heavily invovled in the nexus and proliferation of the growing drug trade aright after WW2 in SE Asia and later in the Caribbean.e.g. the Flying Tigers, Air America and Civil Air Transport…all these ops crossed paths and involved “understandings” and “arrangements” within or in the form of a “gentlemen’s agreement” between this powerful network (and is appendages) and/with The Highest Levels of Organized Crime…its most influential sectors (Luciano/Lansky/Costello/Segal/Anastasia–and also Genovisse, Gambino and others)…The little known but DEEP tectonic “agreement” of (circa) 1941 was now in full”re-bloom”in the cold-war is known as Operation Underworld where the first real hi-level domestic criminal threat known as Organized Crime was now “tethered” in jail and offered a “deal” by the REAL “POWERS THAT BE”(the REAL big boys) : legal/corp/law enforcement sectors…These organized criminal thugs, this criminal cadre…a very wide-spread and growing murderous militia of psychopaths ,with now having some of their top tier in jail, would be offered clemency and pardons IF these monsters would now work for the US government as an extension of US war and intelligence policy and operations— worldwide…THIS WAS AND IS KNOWN AS “OPERATION UINDERWORLD” is it documented and part of the US historical record….I call that Luciano/ Lansky group the original ISIS FIVE (or Taliban) Five…or Seven….so you see, from my research (& MANY others) not just after WW2, but continuing since, in SE Asia, in Europe, in Latin America and even here (operation underworld..&. later out of Florida {specifically Miami and is surroundings) mega Operations like Mongoose and JM/Wave). All this is documented and shows the proclivity, motive, opportunity, desire and witting and direct contact and “RECRUITMENT” with prior monsters to serve the interest no-matter the cost in making “hidden deals” with thugs and monsters under the cover of some “arranagement” and “understanding” and being so labeled TOP SECRET, CLASSIFIED. under the equally “protective” banners of national security and plausible deniability….ISIS, AlQada, etc (or major parts of them) serve the same exact purpose in the current/contemporary setting in Syria and Iraq…
              This is part of the the continuing and true agenda of the neo-cons…and what is partly and significantly behind and “pushing” Jeb Bush….and I have no doubt, based on everything I have seen, heard and pieced together…The Donald is fully aware of the “power” and “reach” of those behind Jeg Bush aka “almost 45″…
              “almost 45″…but not quite or not quite yet…thanks to Donald Trump….
