Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas President Robert Kaplan made multiple million-dollar-plus stock trades in 2020, according to a financial disclosure form provided by his bank, in contrast with other regional Fed leaders who reported more modest financial holdings and smaller transactions.

Eleven of the 12 regional Fed banks have provided disclosures of their leaders’ 2020 financial profiles since Friday, sharing information that gives insight into the holdings of officials who help set the central bank’s monetary policy. The Chicago Fed didn’t make immediately available information for their leader.

THIS GUY NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN RIGHT AWAY

Patriot or Traitor?

In an interview with Joe Barron for an upcoming issue of Dunning-Kruger Magazine, Obama revealed his position on the government of the future:

“What’s happening now is kind of a big deal. The entire world is in chaos because of it. In order to move past this, coordination is required on a scale never before seen.

There’s only one way that this can be accomplished. A common government for the globe must be established. In fact, there has never been a more appropriate time for a one world government to take form. The time for this to happen is now. There isn’t a moment to waste. We need BIG GLOBE now more than ever.

There is nothing to fear with this. I will personally be involved, so you can be assured that the earth will be in competent and capable hands. I will do for the entire globe what I did for America. The safety and security of all humanity is a virtual lock.”

Screw the NFL

NFL rejects veterans group's Super Bowl ad urging people to stand for the anthem. Claim it's too political. 
By Todd Starnes | Fox News

The National Football League has rejected a Super Bowl advertisement from American Veterans urging people to stand for the national anthem.

The nation's largest veterans service organization had been invited by the NFL to place an ad in the Super Bowl LII program.

"It's a simple, polite request that represents the sentiment of our membership, particularly those whose missing or paralyzed limbs preclude standing," wrote National Commander Marion Polk in a letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

American Veterans accused the NFL of outright censorship by rejecting the advertisement.

Mayor of London is conflicted

Can't decide if he should condemn radical Islam or keep his mouth shut

London Lord Mayor Khan downplayed the recent Isis attack by telling Londoners there was "no reason to be alarmed".

I think Londoners should be alarmed that an inbecile like that is sitting in the mayor's office. His failure to condemn will be seen by the radicals as encouragement. 

A classic example of a government failing to protect it's people

Very very politically correct, don't you know. 

What the Brits should do is what the French did. Invite more of the muslims into their country. Give them welfare and cozy up to them real good. Make them feel love and respect. Maybe then, the barbarians won't hurt them.

Weed and the American Family: The family who smokes together

Video by Brian Prowse-Gany
It was Thanksgiving afternoon in Madison, Conn., four years ago, and the Cecchi family was getting ready for dinner. Just before the turkey was served, Paige Cecchi, then an 18-year-old college freshman, gave her older sister, Lauren, “the look,” Paige remembers. “Then we realized pothead Dad had caught ‘the look,’” she says of her father, Mike, who is now 66. “And Aunt Denise picked up on ‘the look.’”

Wordlessly, and much to their collective surprise, about half of the assembled guests headed out to the chilly patio, where they lit up a joint and smoked marijuana together as a family for the first time. “Pass, pass, puff,” Mike describes it. “Pass, pass, puff. Everyone is looking out the window at us.”

Whom do you smoke with? That is one measure of social acceptance of weed, and when it comes to parents smoking recreationally with their children, an

Saudi America, no friend of ours

NEW YORK — In a stunning lawsuit seeking to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for 9/11, the families of 800 victims have filed a lawsuit accusing the Saudis of complicity in the worst terror attacks on American soil.

The legal action, filed in federal court in Manhattan, details a scenario of involvement by Saudi officials who are said to have aided some of the hijackers before the attacks.

Fifteen of the 19 hijackers were Saudi nationals and three of them had

Media kiss former intelligence brass as America's enemies grow stronger

By Cliff Kincaid

With massive leaks of classified information, some of them stemming from undiscovered moles in the intelligence community, the media continue treating former officials of the CIA and NSA who have presided over this debacle with honor and respect.

The Business Insider article "7 things the CIA looks for when recruiting people," is one of the worst examples of this obsequiousness. It is a plug for a book by former CIA and NSA director Michael Hayden, Playing to the Edge: American Intelligence in the Age of Terror. Hayden was once photographed with former CIA/NSA analyst Edward Snowden, who fled to Moscow after disclosing classified information that helped our enemies. Snowden posted the photograph on his Twitter page.

Hayden can't be personally faulted for Snowden's betrayal, but the series of leaks from the intelligence

Domestic Spying

According to Judge Andrew Napolitano, the intelligence community is petrified of a Congressional investigation into claims that Barack Obama spied on Donald Trump because it would expose the fact that every American is under mass surveillance and that their conversations are all being digitally recorded by the NSA.

Appearing on Fox & Friends this morning, Napolitano pointed out that Obama would not have needed FISA court approval to conduct surveillance of Trump and that he could have simply ordered his Attorney General to set it in motion.

“The idea that it was illegal to listen to the phone calls and in person conversations of Donald Trump is wrong,” said Napolitano, adding that although it was immoral and unconstitutional, such power has resided in the hands of the president since Jimmy Carter.

He added that it would then be easy for Obama to ask the NSA, which is a part of the military, to turn over any conversation that Trump had with anyone in Trump Tower.
