Congresswoman Gabbard: The United States is Supporting Terrorists in Syria

Someone should place this good thinking democratic congresswoman on the suicide watch list. For the foreseeable future, she should avoid working out at gyms and taking midnight strolls to her local pub.

After coming back from Syria, where she met with the only legitimate leader of there, President Assad, Rep. Gabbard told fucked face, Jake Tapper, that every single person she encountered asked her why America was supporting ISIS and other terror groups on the ground, in an attempt to overthrow the government.

Tapper quickly replied with his CIA issued talking points, saying the US only supports ‘moderate rebels’, which she replied, wittingly, ‘there are no moderate rebels in Syria.’

I don’t have a particular opinion on Assad, one way or another. All I know, from Syrian friends of mine, is that under Assad there was a very moderate and open society of people — led by a strong arm government of secularists. The fuckers trying to overthrow him, our ‘moderate allies’, are reprobate throw backs to the 9th century — attemping to install theocratic rule.

Perhaps that’s our goal? Maybe the House of Saud has oil/gas pipeline designs through Syria and into Europe?

RETAIL STOCKS MURDERED, LED LOWER BY THE RETARDS AT SEARS

Liquidity fears at Sears. Who would have thought it’d be possible?

“Although Sears has been able to fund its continued cash shortfalls through planned asset monetization, and additional financings, a meaningful business turnaround in fiscal 2017 is critical given the continued reduction of its asset base”, said Moody’s VP Christina Boni. “We expect operating cash flow to approach a disappointing loss of $1.5 billion for fiscal 2016.”

Shares of $SHLD have been hammered to pieces this year, off by 22% so far. There hasn’t been any new, dreadful news, other than credit agency warnings. We all know how this story ends, yes?

But the more important aspect to this story is the overall state of retail. Share price performance has been nothing short of dreadful for 2017.

Here are some standouts.

$JCP -22%
$SHLD -22%
$KSS -21%
$SHOS -19%
$M -19%
$RH -15%
$PIR -16%
$CBK -43%
$SSI -37%
$ZUMZ -14%
$JWN -11%

This is hardly the pin action for a robust economic environment, is it?

Seriously, Eddie Lampert should either kill himself or volunteer to become Jeff Bezos’ new catamite.

Change is in the Air; Resistance is Futile

The populistic policies of Trump aren’t unique to the American people. In recent years, we’ve seen an otherwise forlorn populous, under globalist control, rise up and reject the status quo — in places like Great Britain, Italy, France, S. Korea and all across Eastern Europe.

The efforts of multinational corporations to reduce expenses, while coercing an aspirational American public to spend beyond their means, has reached an ebb tide and the easterly winds of discord have unchastened. A crest fallen nation of once pliable subjects have, heretofore, made it be known that the whores of Babylon will no longer be accepted in government.

The gauche and the privy have benefitted, immeasurably, under the auspices of a corrupt system designed to control people by impoverishing them and denigrating the fabric of mankind: family.

I’ve never cared about any of this stuff, well maybe a little — in between spending my high income and taking for granted my lifestyle that is the envy of most people on this planet. For the most part, I do as I like, when I want, however the hell I want to do it.

So why am I putting myself through the meat grinder of politics, when in fact, I could wistfully drift off through the catacombs of finance, ignoring the crimes and the ageless grifters that are all part and parcel of any power structure, during any time, for as long as people have lived?

I suppose I’m somewhat of a sentimentalist, introspective and empathetic to the plight of others.

I wasn’t born with a silver spoon in my mouth, more of a rusted one. The vast majority of my childhood friends have done nothing productive with their lives, making me something of an anomaly.

That being said, I’m not without fault and know that my opinions aren’t universal truths. We’re all just running around in circles, tossing mashed potatoes at one another.

I don’t hate anyone for their political beliefs and wouldn’t have an issue with the vast majority of you liberal retards. I just despise stupid and the garrulous sloth. To behave in such a manner is indecorous and unbecoming of gentlemanly traditions.

Trump is bearing great gifts of freedom, independence and putting American interests first. It’s a theory worth exploring, fucked faces.

Former Mexican President, Vincente Fox, to America: You Make Shit Cars, You Can’t Compete, You Need Mexico

The former Presidente of Mexico, Vincente Fox, has been trolling President Trump on twitter for about a year now, over that fucking wall.

Somehow Vincente thinks he has a choice when it comes to paying for the wall or not, considering the fact that billions of dollars are wired in from Mexican citizens living in America illegally on an annual basis and the fact that they enjoy a $60b surplus with us. Nevertheless, it makes for good media.

In an CNBC interview today, following the canceled NAFTA meeting between Mexico and the United States over the payment of the proposed wall, Fox said, plainly, that America makes mediocre cars too expensively — which is the reason why the auto industry went broke in 2008.

He posits, slave labor in Mexico is needed by the American auto industry and is the reason why they’re doing so well today.

U.S. automakers can’t compete in the global economy by manufacturing cars in America, former Mexican President Vicente Fox claimed in a CNBC interview on Friday.

“You produce cars in the United States at such a high price and such a mediocre, mediocre quality that you cannot compete, you cannot compete manufacturing in the United States,” Fox asserted in a contentious interview after the Twitter war erupted between President Donald Trump and Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto.

“That’s why Ford, Chrysler, General Motors went broke,” Fox said.

“By joining up the production in Mexico, the United States, and Canada, they are back to business for Chrysler and General Motors,” Fox claimed in the “Squawk Box” appearance.

Without Mexico, ‘you will lose 80% of the market.’

I am sure these words will serve the people of Mexico well, as a vindictive Trump aims to annihilate Mexican industry via the dismantling of NAFTA.

Here’s the consummate statesman, Fox, smashing a Donald Trump piñata.

I don’t think Trump responds well to bullies.

Related: Fox believes Mexican coke is better than American. Damn right it is.

UPDATE: Trump didn’t respond well to bullying.

Obama’s Last GDP Numbers Are Out and They’re Weak

GDP for Q4 came in at 1.9% v expectations of 2.2%, once again well below what all of the shills were forecasting during the summer. It seems to me, every god damned year, analysts call for this breakout growth of 3%+ that literally never happens. Talk about crying wolf.

Obama will go down as the single worst President in the history of the United States for economic growth, being the only President to not achieve 3%+ during his term. That label might seem harsh, especially since he had to pick up the pieces of his retarded predecessor George Bush and the market under Obama did great.

Understand me, I do not see a difference between Bush and Obama. They’re cut from the same globalist cloth. As far as I’m concerned, every President since Reagan has pursued the same idiot globalist policies, which merely manifested itself to be dreadful under Obama. I’m sure he had nothing to do with it, as he was more of a golfer and environmentalist than anything else.

If globalist policies are so bad, then why did the stock market soar under Obama?

First of all, he was coming off of an absurd low point in 2008. The last truly great year was 2013, which saw the SPY soar by more than 30%.  But markets would not have done anything if it weren’t for the fact that the Fed and the ECB were artificially inflating markets. The Fed’s balance sheet has gone from $700b to $4.5t under Obama and our debt has gone from $10t to $20t.

Give any President $14 trillion to rig their markets and I promise you stocks will always do well during their term.

All in all, the economy grew by just 1.6% last year, the weakest since 2011.

BANNON UNLEASHES ON THE MEDIA: ‘You Have No Power…You Are the Opposition Party’

In a telephone interview with the NY Times, Stephen Bannon, chief strategist to the President, called the main stream media out for their shilling and warned them to shut their big stupid mouths.

Trump fan or not, one thing is indelibly clear, all of the media networks, including Fox, were very anti-Trump from the beginning. Many of you will try to rewrite history and suggest that Fox was onboard the Trump train; but they were not. The only person who truly supported Trump on Fox was Sean Hannity. Other than that, from Shep Smith to Megyn Kelly to Bret Hume, Trump was viewed as a pussy grabbing orange clown and treated in a manner that was meant to hurt him.

For the media, a Trump win was their nightmare come true. Even worse, Trump is using the executive powers that were readily applauded by the left to make drastic changes — undoing much of Obama’s legacy and removing key tenets of the liberal agenda. And we’re just getting started.

Hailing from Breitbart.com, an organization remembered for its fearless late founder, Andrew Breitbart (who died suspiciously, and his coroner), Stephen Bannon tells the NYT exactly what they are — at least in the eyes of tens of millions of voters, casting an uncomfortable light upon their decrepit and horribly disfigured fat faces.

Source: NYT

“The media should be embarrassed and humiliated and keep its mouth shut and just listen for a while,” Mr. Bannon said during a telephone call.

“I want you to quote this,” Mr. Bannon added. “The media here is the opposition party. They don’t understand this country. They still do not understand why Donald Trump is the president of the United States.”

“The elite media got it dead wrong, 100 percent dead wrong,” Mr. Bannon said of the election, calling it “a humiliating defeat that they will never wash away, that will always be there.”

“The mainstream media has not fired or terminated anyone associated with following our campaign,” Mr. Bannon said. “Look at the Twitter feeds of those people: they were outright activists of the Clinton campaign.” (He did not name specific reporters or editors.)

“That’s why you have no power,” Mr. Bannon added. “You were humiliated.”

Asked if he was concerned that Mr. Spicer had lost credibility with the news media, Mr. Bannon chortled. “Are you kidding me?” he said. “We think that’s a badge of honor. ‘Questioning his integrity’ — are you kidding me? The media has zero integrity, zero intelligence, and no hard work.”

“You’re the opposition party,” Mr. Bannon said. “Not the Democratic Party. You’re the opposition party. The media’s the opposition party.”

Mr. Bannon mostly referred to the “elite” or “mainstream” media, but he cited The New York Times and The Washington Post by name.

“The paper of record for our beloved republic, The New York Times, should be absolutely ashamed and humiliated,” Mr. Bannon said. “They got it 100 percent wrong.”

Bannon is a Harvard and Goldman Sachs alumni. He started off his young adult life as a Naval officer on the USS Foster, in addition to being a special assistant to the Chief of Naval Operations at the Pentagon.

Now he spends his time destroying the media-democrat complex, and in his spare time advising the President of the United States.

Washpo Columnist, Anne Applebaum, Warns Us the Nazi German Markets Roared Too…Up Until Stalingrad

Factually absurd, but that shouldn’t stop Anne from spouting her bitter rhetoric. In an obvious poke at Trump, in light of the furious stock market run since elected, Pulitzer Prize winner and member of the Council on Foreign Relations globalist shill, Anne Applebaum, warned her twitter followers that Hitler’s markets went higher too, up until he met Stalingrad (cue autistic screeching).

Trump is Hitler, just like Bush was Hitler and Bill Clinton was JFK. Get it?

IMG_6243

A little background on Anne, she’s sympathetic towards Russian propaganda victims and fake news, having endured it herself.

IMG_6244

In 2009, she called the arrest of Roman Polanski ‘outrageous.’ After all, he only had sex with a 13 yr old. Anne didn’t see what the big fuss was about.

Here is a blog she wrote about the issue in 2009.

Here are some of the facts: Polanski’s crime — statutory rape of a 13-year-old girl — was committed in 1977. The girl, now 45, has said more than once that she forgives him, that she can live with the memory, that she does not want him to be put back in court or in jail, and that a new trial will hurt her husband and children. There is evidence of judicial misconduct in the original trial. There is evidence that Polanski did not know her real age. Polanski, who panicked and fled the U.S. during that trial, has been pursued by this case for 30 years, during which time he has never returned to America, has never returned to the United Kingdom., has avoided many other countries, and has never been convicted of anything else. He did commit a crime, but he has paid for the crime in many, many ways: In notoriety, in lawyers’ fees, in professional stigma. He could not return to Los Angeles to receive his recent Oscar. He cannot visit Hollywood to direct or cast a film.

Better go sell your stocks now.

White House: Mexican Imports to be Slapped with 20% Tax to Pay for Border Wall

Sorry, but I’m unable to empathize with anyone who’s against the border wall. The amount of drugs streaming into this country from that pit of hell is enough to want to go to war with them. But we can’t, so the next best thing to do is build a fortress wall in order to keep out the zombie hordes.

Plus anyway, think about this long term. Once the shit hits the fan and the global economy melts down, we won’t have to deal with millions of impoverished land apes scurrying over our feckless border, committing all sorts of raping and thievery along the way.

Sean Spicer just announced we’re gonna tax Mexican imports by 20% to pay for the wall.

Earlier today, both Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell said they’d finance the construction of the wall, which should cost $12-15b.

“We anticipate a supplemental [budget] coming from the administration,” Ryan said. “The point is we’re going to finance the Secure Fence Act.”

I’m certain it’ll come in under budget and ahead of schedule, however.

My Allocation is Complete, Eagerly Awaiting Market Crash Now

After cleaning house the other day, I added a few positions: $CLF and $TECK. In an effort to keep it 100 with the clowns who are reading this now, just know, I don’t give a fuck. My beard is long and my hats are furry. I only leave my house to lift heavy weights after dosing up on creatine. My demeanor is one of a scorched earth varietal; gone are the days when Fly floated throughout his office — gingerly sashaying about and punching holes through the sheetrock.

I had about 30% of my account in cash heading into today. I just put an end to that, via buying more $HBM, $CLF and $TECK.

All three companies shall be instrumental in building out the great Mexican wall, which will protect us from the perils of savage societies.

All in all, I’m on a ruinous path to greatness, with zero regard for my well being. Let it be known that I’ve warned you of my mental state and how my risk strategies have been cast aside for wanton speculation of the 1840s varietal — because the 1890s were too damn conservative for me.

Souring Relations with Mexico is Bearish for Your Avocado Supply

Mexico dominates N. American avocado supplies, controlling upwards of 75% of the market share. Prices have recently moderated a bit, but they’re still elevated around $556-60 per tray.

haas-avocado-prices

If we embark on a trade war with Mexico, prices will soar — due to heavy taxation at the border. The costs will likely be prohibitive and demand will, eventually, wane. Being that $CMG and $JACK are all about guacamole, I don’t know how anyone can view them positively with this looming. Also, there are some avocado growers listed here, such as $CVGW. Most, if not all, of their produce is grown in Mexico.

On the flipside, $LMNR grows avocados in California.

This probably ends up being a giant nothing trade, but maybe now. At a minimum, it’s worth exploring more.
