1…………> Economy Heating Up: Trump

 

Strong consumer spending drove business investment and exports gains as firms rushed to beat new trade tariffs, as the US economy grew at its fastest pace in nearly four years in the second quarter, expanding at an annualized rate of 4.1%, official figures show.

President Trump called the acceleration as “amazing,” claiming it as proof his policies are working, but many analysts cautioned that growth could cool in coming months.

“In one line: Looks great; won’t last,” wrote the chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics about the Commerce Department report on consumer spending that rose sharply in the second quarter, up from the 0.5% rate seen in the previous three months, as exports grew by more than 9%, the fastest rate since the fourth quarter of 2013.

2…………> Backstabber In Chief: Cohen

 

President Trump’s former lawyer has said his client knew in advance of a  meeting between his aides and a Russian delegation that offered to help his campaign and is reportedly willing to state this to the special counsel investigation into alleged Russian election meddling.

Mr. Trump again denied that he knew about the meeting.

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

…..I did NOT know of the meeting with my son, Don Jr. Sounds to me like someone is trying to make up stories to get himself out of an unrelated jam (Taxi cabs maybe?). He even retained Bill and Crooked Hillary’s lawyer. Gee, I wonder if they helped him make a choice!

3…………> Steel Is Back: Trump

 

The White House • July 27, 2018

President Donald J. Trump announced second-quarter GDP growth of 4.1 percent—putting America on track to hit its highest annual average growth rate in more than a decade.
back
“Hiding in plain sight in a suburb of St. Louis is one of the great success stories of President Donald J. Trump’s tough trade policies,” National Trade Council Director Peter Navarro says. “This is the rebirth of the Granite City steelworks, idled in 2015 — along with about 2,000 steelworkers — under a drowning flood of subsidized imports.”
President Trump visited Granite City yesterday, where U.S. Steel is restarting its blast furnaces and putting hundreds of Americans back to work. “Our steel towns became ghost towns. More than 70,000 hardworking Americans lost their jobs, their hope, and their way of life,” President Trump told workers in Illinois. “After years of shutdowns and cutbacks, today the blast furnace here in Granite City is blazing bright.”
It’s never been a better time to enter the American workforce. For the first time on record, “there are more job openings in the economy today than people are looking for jobs,” Labor Secretary Alex Acosta told students during a visit with President Trump to Northeast Iowa Community College. That statistic is crucial for Americans on welfare, as work programs offer the surest pathway out of poverty.
Watch: President Trump’s tariffs bring hope, prosperity back to Granite City.
More: Work is the best way to escape poverty—and the numbers prove it.

Something to share: ‘Made in America’ from all 50 states
President Trump hosted his second “Made in America” showcase at the White House this week. Companies large and small joined the celebration on the South Lawn—“products made with American heart, American sweat, and American pride,” the President said.
See what great product represented your home state.

We need to hear the stories of persecution
“Nations that reject religious freedom breed radicalism and resentment in their citizens,” Vice President Mike Pence said at the first-ever Ministerial to Advance Religious Freedom yesterday in Washington, D.C. “They sow the seeds of violence within their borders—violence that often spills over into their neighbors and across the world.”
To advance the cause of religious freedom, America needs partners the world over. So this week, the State Department brought together religious leaders, survivors of religious persecution, and delegations from foreign governments for this inaugural ministerial.
“We need to hear the stories of those persecuted, tortured, falsely imprisoned, and killed for their faith,” Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says. “We can honor their sacrifices by preventing these atrocities from happening again.”

Watch the President’s announcement here.

 

 

 

Watch: “We will not rest … until ISIS is driven from the face of the earth.”

 

 

4…………> Trump’s Star: Antifa Brawl

 

When a MAGA crew, arrived at Trump’s Hollywood star to “spread the love” and sing a round or two of the US national anthem,  granting bystanders the chance to take photos with a cardboard version of 45, a massive fight broke out along California’s Hollywood Walk of Fame late Thursday after a group of supporters of President Trump was attacked after one man joined in, taking his shirt off and encouraging a growing crowd to chant, “F**k Donald Trump.”

Trump’s star was damaged earlier this week on Wednesday by 24-year-old Austin Clay, who told tabloid TMZ that the Trump administration’s decision to separate families entering from the US-Mexico border motivated him to commit the act.

1…………> Operation “Double Trouble”: AG Sessions

 

Thank you, Andy
,

Good morning and thank you all for being here.

I want to thank U.S. Attorney Andy Lelling for the fabulous work that he is doing for the people of this Commonwealth.  This is my second visit to this office, but my first since Andy became U.S. Attorney. 

I’m excited to see this office thrive under his leadership and I know that he understands the importance of his position.  He has spent the better part of two decades serving in the Department of Justice, and he has done terrific work—taking on the drug cartels, drug traffickers in Eastern Europe, as well as bringing to justice the leader of a $3 billion pyramid scheme.

The public servants in this office are doing great work.  Just a few weeks ago, you arrested a Dominican national in the city of Lynn who is wanted for murder back in the Dominican Republic.



And that was the day after you put an MS-13 leader behind bars for 19 years for racketeering.  Altogether you’ve convicted 49 different defendants as part of that case.  The reach of this critical U.S. Attorney’s office goes beyond Boston, beyond the United States, it is worldwide.

We are challenging you – unleashing you to be even more effective.

I am here today to announce a law enforcement action in Massachusetts against crimes committed predominantly by illegal aliens.

I want to explain our policies and why these cases are essential.

By most estimates, 11 million people are in this country illegally.  That is a population the size of Portugal or the state of Georgia, our eighth most populous state.

With an estimated 180,000 illegal aliens, the Greater Boston area is one of the top 12 metro areas in America regarding illegal alien population.  That means that there are about as many illegal aliens in the Boston area as the total population of Worcester, which is Massachusetts’ second biggest city.



According to these estimates, one out of every 30 people in the Greater Boston area is an illegal alien. 

And I want to be clear about this: we are talking about illegal immigration, not legal immigration.

In the United States, we have the most generous immigration laws in the world.  We take 1.1 million people on a path to citizenship every year.  Another 700,000 come here to take jobs.  Another half a million come here to gain spots in our colleges and universities.

2…………> Don’t Apologize For America: President Trump 

 

The White House • July 25, 2018

 

The Day Ahead 

President Donald J. Trump will meet with the President of the European Commission to discuss fairer trade deals that strengthen America’s farmers and manufacturers ‘We don’t apologize for America anymore.’

President promised to make honoring our veterans as one of the top priorities of his Administration. Part of that promise means restoring American patriotism. “We don’t apologize for America anymore. We stand up for America,” the President told the Veterans of Foreign Wars national convention yesterday in Missouri. “And we stand up for our National Anthem,” the President said to a thundering ovation.

Another part of that promise is making sure that our veterans receive the best healthcare in the world. That begins by holding the VA system accountable for misconduct and poor performance. Last June, President Trump signed the VA Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act into law, making it easier to discipline bad actors, including senior executives. The VA took more than 3,200 accountability actions—which include removals, suspensions, and demotions—from the beginning of the Trump Administration through the end this May. All told, those actions resulted in more than 2,500 removals from the system. See the three significant ways President Trump is honoring our veterans’ service. Watch: “We stand up for our National Anthem.”

Religious persecution in Iran and China must end

Around the world, religious minorities are persecuted and stripped of human rights, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo wrote yesterday. “We need to hear the stories of those persecuted, tortured, falsely imprisoned, and killed for their faith. We can honor their sacrifices by preventing these atrocities from happening again,” he writes. President Trump is taking action. This week, the State Department is bringing together religious leaders, survivors of persecution, and delegations from foreign governments for the first-ever Ministerial to Advance Religious Freedom.

Vice President Mike Pence and other senior Administration officials will be in attendance. The goal is simple: to promote the God-given human right to believe what you choose. The persecution of Christians, Jews, and Sunni Muslims must end. 

 

 

 

3…………> Bi-Partisan Battle: US Congress 


The White House • July 26, 2018

The Day Ahead 

 President Donald J. Trump and Ivanka Trump visit Iowa, where they will lead a discussion on developing America’s workforce. Watch live at 12:30 p.m. ET.

The President then travels to Granite City, Illinois, where he will celebrate the expected return of 800 American steel jobs. Watch live at 3:40 p.m. ET.

A major bipartisan win in Congress Republicans and Democrats came together yesterday to deliver a signature piece of President Trump’s workforce agenda: reauthorization of the Perkins Career and Technical Education Act.  For years Congress has tried unsuccessfully to modernize the program, which will help more than 11 million students and workers with technical and vocational education. President Trump had urged Congress to act. “Congress should reauthorize #PerkinsCTE and ensure the American workforce remains stronger than EVER!” the President tweeted this week. 

The White House, led by Ivanka Trump, was intimately involved in shepherding the legislation on Capitol Hill. It’s been a flagship month for workers, with America in the midst of its longest streak of uninterrupted job growth ever recorded. Last week, President Trump launched the National Council for the American Worker, which will focus on retraining efforts to make sure every citizen can take full advantage of this crucial jobs boom.

President Trump: “I applaud Congress for its tremendous, bipartisan effort.” Get the facts: How the Administration is equipping American students and workers. Zero tariffs, zero barriers, and zero subsidies

As a candidate, Donald Trump promised to make America a much stricter negotiator on the world stage. “We have the worst trade deals in the history of the world. We gave away our country, but we’re taking it back for our workers,” the President said last month in Minnesota.

Yesterday, the President’s tough stance paid off with a dramatic win, especially for America’s farmers. Standing alongside European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, President Trump announced that “we agreed today, first of all, to work together toward zero tariffs, zero non-tariff barriers, and zero subsidies on non-auto industrial goods,” a move that “will open markets for farmers and workers.”

The importance can’t be overstated. The European Union’s $1 trillion trade flow with the United States is the most significant economic relationship in the world. Together, America and the EU account for 830 million citizens and more than half of the world’s GDP. “If we team up, we can make our planet a better, more secure, and more prosperous place,” President Trump said. Watch President Trump’s announcement from the Rose Garden. President Trump announces concessions from EU on soybeans, energy, tariffs.

Position short 24400 closed, cover shortstop 24500, for a loss of 50 DIA points. Last position long 24500, stop 25100 for a gain of 600 points. New position short 24350, sell stop 25350 for an increase of 1000 points.

Stocks were up 113 to 25527, DJ futures +116, attempt to stage a short covering rally.

Gold down to 1232.2 and USD/CHF down 0.99 due to President Trump setting tariffs on Chinese products. Translation? As the dollar goes down, we have to wait and see if the new Fed Chair Jerome Powell will continue pressuring gold and the Eurasian block with it down below $1000/oz in an economic WW3. Watch sell stop at 25,350.

We have to wait and see if new Fed chair Powell will attempt to destroy Eurasian block by sending gold prices below 1000, despite the fact that both Russia and China have been buying their whole gold production in local gold backed currency instead of money printing machines. In other words, US has lost controls of the precious metals complex, and with Trump’s infrastructure and tax cut campaign the National debt will soon be at, or over 30 trillion dollars, since D.C. swamp alligators have no intention dropping their pet projects. Read “Ziban Must Die” for more details on the coming collision of Trump’s administration with “Deep State” operators funded by the billionaires’ supporters of the New World.

1…………> Bronx Crew: Nabbed

 

Twelve members of a Bronx crew are facing charges with narcotics offenses following a joint operation with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the New York City Police Department’s (NYPD) Bronx Violent Crimes Squad.

The seven defendants arrested in the Bronx will be presented and arraigned later Wednesday.

“These crew members allegedly pushed crack cocaine and heroin in low-income neighborhoods of the Bronx,” said Angel M. Melendez, special agent in charge of HSI New York. The alleged dealers have no regard for their neighbors as long as they are making a profit, which is why we will continue to partner with NYPD in these investigations to remove the drugs and those who push it, off city streets.”

2…………> Prostitution Central: Flawless Escorts

 

Pursuant to an investigation by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations’ (HSI) led El Dorado Task Force, two Florida men were arrested for money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering in connection with their ownership and operation of Flawless Escorts, a nationwide business offering prostitution services, as well as the seizure of Flawless Escorts’ website.  Brandon Martin, 42, and Tameko Lindo, 32, of Parkland, Florida were presented Tuesday in Fort Lauderdale federal court. “In just under four years, these defendants are alleged to have secured more than three thousand hotel bookings to use in the furtherance of their prostitution scheme,” said Angel M. Melendez, special agent in charge of HSI New York. “In this case, members of HSI’s El Dorado Task Force were able to follow the money, tracking the advertising funds, payments, and movement of dollars to locate the perpetrators, and they now face prosecutions for their actions.”

According to the allegations in the complaint sworn out in Manhattan federal court, from 2014 to the present, Martin and Lindo have operated an online prostitution service through their website, flawlessescorts.com (the “Website”). As part of their prosecution business, Martin and Lindo arranged for escorts to travel throughout the United States to engage in prostitution, securing more than 3,000 hotel bookings under the names of various women. Martin and Lindo also required escorts to follow specific protocols when traveling on behalf of the Website, including an expectation that each escort would see a minimum of seven clients per day. Martin and Lindo also required escorts to deposit the proceeds of their commercial sex acts into many corporate and personal bank accounts that they controlled. Martin and Lindo then used the proceeds of the prostitution scheme for personal gain and to further their illegal prostitution business. They paid, for example, over $180,000 from bank accounts under their control to advertise for the Website and to pay expenses of individual escorts. Martin and Lindo are charged with one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison, and two counts of money laundering, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. The maximum penalties, in this case, are prescribed by Congress and are provided here for informational purposes only, as the judge will determine any sentencing of the defendants.

3…………> Beijing Bomb: US Embassy

 

A suspected “firework device” has exploded outside the US Embassy in Beijing, wounding a 26-year-old male suspect, identified only by his surname, Jiang, and said he was from the city of Tongliao in the Chinese region of Inner Mongolia. The embassy, in a separate statement, described the device like a bomb, but police statement confirmed that a small homemade device was the cause of the explosion and that Jiang suffered an injury to his hand. The state-run Global Times newspaper said earlier police took away a woman who sprayed herself with gasoline in what was suspected to be a self-immolation attempt outside the embassy.

4…………> Impeach Rosenstein: US Congress

 

Republicans have launched a bid to remove the Department of Justice official overseeing the Russia inquiry dogging Donald Trump’s presidency. House of Representatives conservatives has filed articles of impeachment to oust Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, an effort led by Representatives Mark Meadows and Jim Jordan, who accuse him of stonewalling their requests for information.

Mr. Rosenstein denies the accusations, naturally.

“Rod Rosenstein has been in charge of the Department of Justice as the agency has made every effort to obstruct legitimate attempts of congressional oversight,” Mr. Meadows said in a statement. Impeachment would have to be approved by a majority in the House and backed by two-thirds of the US Senate to convict Mr. Rosenstein, which makes the plan a long shot.

5…………> Red Shift Proof: Einstein Prediction

 

The black hole at the center of our galaxy has helped astronomers confirm a central prediction of Albert Einstein’s general relativity theory by observing a star, called S2, that passed through the intense gravitational field of Sagittarius A* – the enormous black hole at the heart of the Milky Way. The effect of gravitational redshift describes how the wavelength of light lengthens as it climbs out of a gravitational well like a black hole. The Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile found evidence for Einstein’s prediction.
