NC Renegades

The top three mega banks in the United States have over $150 Trillion in derivatives. What is a derivative? A derivative is a “side-bet”. Basically a derivative is a financial instrument that derives its value from something else. In other words, it has no actual value of its own. Banks can have side bets of side bets of side bets. THIS is what nearly collapsed the economy in 2008, and now it’s a thousand times worse. THIS is why they had to pass the debt-ceiling bill. If they didn’t, it’s likely that the entire banking system would have collapsed. Eventually it will anyway, and you will want to have tools of production and tangible assets, as your fiat federal reserve notes will be worthless.

I strongly suggest watching the video above.

I remember the first time that I met Mr. Barber in Raleigh at a rally protesting Obama speaking at Broughton High School. I did not know who he was but I remember his solution to erasing the national debt: withhold the salaries of every state governor. I remember thinking what a moron he was. I also remember his lieutenant (for lack of a better word) who was by his side and not too happy with the protesters. When I learned that Mr. Barber was a reverend, I went up to him and asked if he attended church. When he replied that he did, I extended my hand and said that we were brothers in Christ. He shook my hand and remembered me at future meetings.

Is Rev. Barber a poverty pimp? It will not take much time to ascertain the answer to that question.

I did not see where they ruled out suicide. I suppose we will have to wait for the autopsy report but most of you are already saying: nothing will be done. I cannot disagree.

I must admit that the term sedition hunters is a new one for me. Ms. Greene: why should we live in fear of the retribution of evil? And if we do in fact live in such a country, it only proves what the people rotting in prison for supposed political crimes were trying to expose.

The better question is why the House has done nothing tangible to restore the Republic while the country descends into chaos? We do not need platitudes of the supposed protection of the people who might be exposed. The FBI and DOJ have the credit card records and the cell phone signatures of everyone in Washington, D.C. on January 6th. Your argument is not valid.

David DeGerolamo

The FBI has become synonymous with Hitler’s brownshirts. Hyperbole? Consider where the country would be if Hillary Clinton had been convicted of any one of her four investigations that the FBI covered up. How about the Joe Biden’s blackmail in Ukraine that he bragged about? The Hunter Biden laptop? Crossfire Hurricane?

I know there are more examples of the FBI’s complicit activities in the usurpation of the Republic. I know that there are good FBI agents but I have to ask them at what point will they break their silence in the face of evil?

There are several solutions to the criminal activities of the CIA, NSA, FBI and DOJ. No one wants to address any of them. The House of Representatives has been controlled by the Republican party for five months. Here is my summation of their performance:

Remember the WWII Japanese internment camps in the United States? Our generation will look at the political prosecution of the January 6th prisoners in the same way if good wins this war. If evil wins, we will all be J6ers. There is no justice in the remnants of the fallen Republic. I pray that this will not end in a nuclear conflagration where the Deagel predictions are validated.

David DeGerolamo

Here is a simple solution to fixing a major contributor to the downfall of our country: pass legislation making it illegal for any investment firm to use their influence to impact the board of directors of any corporation. This could be the placement of people on the board or forcing corporations to make decisions through coercion, blackmail or “favors”.

Who would have thought that our money placed in pension funds would then be aggregated to force the people to follow the personal dictates of a few in “power”. If this legislation was passed, DEI, ESG, climate control and the sexual perversion of our children would end instantly.

USS FORD CARRIER STRIKE GROUP SAILS UNDER NATO COMMAND IN THE HIGH NORTH

NORWEGIAN SEA – In a continued sign of transatlantic unity, the USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) came under NATO command today while preparing to conduct activities in the Norwegian Sea with other maritime forces from Allied Nations. The Ford is on a scheduled deployment to the European Theater.

This transfer of authority to Naval Striking and Support Forces NATO (SFN) demonstrates the Alliance’s ability to integrate the high-end capabilities of a first-in-class carrier U.S., its strike group escorts, and embarked air wing during a series of planned maritime security activities and training. Norway is the host nation for these events, which will take place over the following week.

One of the most common strategies used by the political left to attack 2^nd Amendment supporters is to ramp up the anti-gun hype every time a crime involving a gun is committed. They don’t care much about the tragedy itself, they only care about how they can use it for political gain. However, it’s very important to understand that this is not only about removing gun rights for leftists – It’s also about creating a false association in the public consciousness that guns = crime.

That is to say, they want to condition people to believe that once guns are gone, crime and murder will be gone also. But, firearms have been an integral part of American society for hundreds of years, and gun ownership has been present through times of relative peace as well as times of increased violence.

…

In the US, violent crimes and murders are exponentially higher in Democrat run cities, many of them with increased gun control measures. In fact, of the top 30 most violent cities in the US, 27 of them are Democrat controlled. Wherever leftists dominate politically, violence, theft, rape and murder are sure to follow. Anti-gun proponents often try to cite high homicide numbers in certain conservative states like Texas, but the majority of those crimes are actually committed in cities run by leftists.

The truth is, blue cities are dragging red states and the rest of the country down. According to the statistics, in theory, if the public was to replace all Democrat city politicians with conservative leadership murder rates would immediately plunge across the US by virtue of policy.

…

They’re happy to take away the 2^nd Amendment rights of innocent Americans, but they have no interest in keeping criminals in prison or keeping mentally unstable people away from normal society. Perhaps because their goal is NOT to reduce violence, but to use exponential violence in society as a reason to erode the constitution.

Yesterday we pointed out something stunning (and a big problem for the Biden administration): while the US economy has added 3.3 million jobs from the pre-covid highs (make that 3.8 million after today’s blowout print)…

… all of the new jobs have gone to foreign-born workers, with native-born workers stagnating and unable to surpass their pre-covid highs of 131.7 million, set in Oct 2019.

Well, as shown in the chart above, when updating the series for the latest May data, we find something startling, if not completely unexpected: in May, while the headline payrolls print was a blowout 339K (almost double the 195K expected), a quick look at the underlying numbers shows where the BLS grift was this particular month.

The answer: in May, the number of native born workers tumbled again, dropping by a whopping 369K to 130.744 million, still below the pre-covid highs and barely higher than at the start of the year, but this number was offset almost 1 to 1 by the increase in foreign born workers, which surged by 297K to a record high 30.359 million. This was the biggest monthly drop in native-born workers since November 2022.

NC’s McHenry is a top negotiator in US debt ceiling talks.

Here’s how NC representatives voted

North Carolina Republicans battled one another until the last minute as the U.S. House voted to pass a bill to extend the country’s debt ceiling until Jan. 1, 2025.

The final vote to approve the bill was 314-117. Thirteen of 14 members of the North Carolina delegation approved the bill, though Rep. Deborah Ross was absent due to illness.

Republican Rep. Dan Bishop was the only North Carolina member to oppose the bill.

Bishop, from Charlotte, has spent more than four days speaking out against the bill, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and his negotiators, who included Rep. Patrick McHenry, a Republican from Lincoln County.

“This is what it looks like when the uniparty cartel sells out the American people. #NoDeal,” Bishop tweeted shortly after the vote.
