Unemployment Up, PPI Up, Gold and Silver Up, Obama's Stock Down

I couldn't bring myself to listen to Obama yesterday evening. Seriously. The guy is so full of shit that he defies belief. He has zero credibility. Even the Wall St. Journal has given up on Obama. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703730104576260911986870054.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEADTop

Unemployment claims went up drastically this week- following a mandatory upward revision from last week. Producer prices were higher than anticipated. Gold and silver were up. http://www.zerohedge.com/article/jobless-claims-huge-miss-expectatons-380k-print-412k-previous-revised-upward-ppi-higher-expe

Let me state two obvious things. When Obama talks about "future" cuts- this is patent bullshit. Not only is he kicking the can down the road but future politicians are not bound to obey any guidelines or legislation. They find ways around that. The only legitimate way for Obama to gain credibility is to end his rhetorical bullshit and actually CUT deficit spending. Come up with a project for reducing existing debt NOW.

That's why I can't listen to this guy. He is just full of shit and worthless. At a time when this country needed a leader- they sent this guy. What a disaster. Wirecutter pretty much nails it in his own beautiful way. http://ogdaa.blogspot.com/2011/04/are-you-fucking-kidding-me.html

Erin Burnett called the IMF and world currencies a Ponzi Scheme this morning on CNBC. I heard it.

Gold and silver. Winning.

The year is 2016.

The total control by the People's Communist Democratic Party is near completion.

The very last two Republicans are being assembled to be shot by firing squad.

As they are being placed against the wall, one says out loud

"My blindfold is too tight!"

the other says

"SHUT UP, MAN, fer crying out loud, don't make waves!"

I did. Mark Haines told her to "check her cynicism at the door." He is such a pussy.

I follow a chartist, last canary, he thinks silver will struggle around 48-48.50. That is close to my double range. I am gonna offload 1/2 of my position there- wait for a stock market collapse- and reload. That's my plan anyway.

Brian, give me a crash course in commodities, if you would. When one or more of the major hoarders decides it's time to take their profit, will that trigger panic selling? If so, what will you do? Takes some profit while you can and then hold the rest until the next wave comes? Does that type of thing worry you at all. Forgive my ignorance but I don't understand this game at all.

Jim I only trade equities and options. Silver and gold are indeed commodities but I don't trade paper (futures/options) silver and gold- I own physical silver and gold. I will have doubled my money in silver at 52-54. I am going to sell one half of what I own at that level. I am going to let the other half ride- that is pure profit since I have gotten my original investment back by selling.

Gawd I hate to use this phrase- but this time it is different. Global currency systems are failing and the world is bankrupt. This has never happened- the US and the world- bankrupt. Because of this- silver and gold (PM's) will become the default world currency. That is the only place people can store their wealth and preserve it.

I do not worry about PM prices collapsing. In fact, I don't even think its possible. However- I do see a stock market collapse...that is possible...and if that happens gold and silver will fall with it- maybe. I will be a buyer if PM's fall. If not I will still have 1/2 of my rig purchase.

It's Showtime Bitches!!- The Sunday Collage

Image
 Today, they convicted Former President Trump today on 34 counts of make believe bullshit fabricated from a 17 year old tryst with a porn star.  At it's very worst, Donald Trump may have gotten a piece of ass on the side. He may have used campaign funds to give Ms. Daniels 130,000 to shut up about it. He may have (gasp) lied. Let's conjure up some perspective. Of all the whores in the Whitehouse, JFK was probably the worst. Kennedy was a well documented sex addict. The "Stormy" of his day was a film star named Marilyn Monroe. Men (and women) have been screwing around on their spouses since time began. Millions upon millions and probably billions. Clinton paid Paula Jones 7 times what Daniels received. Where was the big witch trial then? So men like to get laid. Unscrupulous women provide vaginas. There is nothing proprietary there. No news flash.  The US government spends 100's of billions of dollars a year on welfare, wars, shitty student and housing loans, bond ...

Was It Worth the Trouble, Mr. Trump?

 Several years ago, as Ann Coulter (2016) was being laughed at for predicting the Trump presidential win, I was reading a piece about why working-class America was supporting a billionaire. It was a nasty piece, a hit job, explaining that poor, working class Americans were a bunch of dupes enamored by wealth and fame. Deplorables, according to Hillary. It was also total bullshit.  Over the years after Hillary Clinton, perhaps one of the most highly effective criminals in America lost her bid to become President, I came to understand the widespread appeal of Donald Trump. It wasn't polished bullshit, it wasn't party support, experience, or a career of broken political promises. It was something else entirely. Something that I treasured.  To be sure, I was not a Trump supporter back then. I am a strict adherent to George Carlin's political views in that we keep electing these rich assholes and nothing changes. So I skipped the voting process in 2016 for that reason and also...

9 Million Counterfeit Ballots- The Sunday Collage

 Earlier this week, graphs started popping up on X and other places. Most of those graphs showed the steep and dramatic increase in popular votes that occurred in 2020 and compared the elections of 2008, 2012, 2016, 2020, and 2024 for context. Beyond any doubt, democrat or republican, the popular vote totals for Biden in 2020 were astronomical. Many charts reflected raw data as it stood on Wednesday and Thursday. Some showed a difference of as many as 18 million ballots cast for democrats compared to previous elections and 2024. Those early charts did not take into account that California was still counting. Counting votes in California is apparently a Herculean task unlike Florida who had their votes counted in a few hours after the polls closed. Thus we are left with the rusty machinery that counts votes in California by either necessity or design. California still had at least 8 million votes to count and Arizona still hadn't finished counting either. By extrapolating what's...
