The Buffoons – Congress & Mainstream Media Join Forces
Guest Post by Martin Armstrong
The manner in which the press acts and Congress, they are colluding to the point that they are desperately trying to get rid of Trump at all costs. However, what they are doing in the process is completing the forecast made by our model that this is the collapse in the confidence of government.
This desperate act to prevent any reform is dangerously taking the domestic political situation in the United States attributing everything to Russian influence, what they are actually doing is harming the image of the United States globally. Their actions reveal that they are either just stupid or they are really sinister, dangerous, and highly dishonest people seeking to establish their personal agenda.

The Aleppo Poster Child
Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
Washington’s media presstitutes are using the image of the child to bring pressure on Russia to stop the Syrian army from retaking Alleppo. http://www.cnn.com/2016/08/17/world/syria-little-boy-airstrike-victim/ Washington wants its so-called moderate rebels to retain Alleppo so that Washington can split Syria in two, thereby keeping a permanent pressure against President Assad.
As for the little boy in the propaganda picture, he does not seem to be badly injured. Let us not forget the tens of thousands of children that Washington’s wars and bombings of 7 Muslim countries have killed without any tears shed by CNN anchors, and let us not forget the 500,000 Iraqi children that the United Nations concluded died as a result of US sanctions against Iraq, children’s deaths that Clinton’s Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said were worth it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omnskeu-puE
SOME PERSPECTIVE ON THE “FANTASTIC” JOB NUMBERS
It certainly looks like the establishment is making an all-out push to get Crooked Hillary elected. The liberal, in the bag, mainstream media is hyperventilating at each faux pas supposedly being committed by Trump. The vitriolic attacks by faux journalists on the establishment propaganda media outlets is off the charts, as 90% of these worthless talking heads, bimbos and scribblers are Democrats.
Anyone with two brain cells knows the government (aka establishment) falsifies data to achieve their agenda. They manipulate, seasonally adjust, modify, and massage the data to achieve a happy ending for the people who pay their salary. Shockingly, with three months left before the election, the employment numbers are soaring, according to the numnuts at the BLS.
Does this awesome data pass the smell test? Let’s see. GDP has been growing at 1.2% for the last year, even using the manipulated inflation deflator. In reality, GDP is really negative. Announced layoffs by the biggest companies in the US, according to Challenger, Grey and Christmas were up 19% in July versus June. The very same government reporting 255,000 new jobs in July also had to report payroll withholding taxes, which can’t be faked easily. July receipts were down 1% versus last year. According to the BLS 2.7 million more Americans were employed this July versus last July. How could tax withholding receipts possibly fall? They couldn’t. Someone is lying.

WORLDS MADE BY HAND
Having recently finished reading The Harrows of Spring, the fourth and final novel of Jim Kunstler’s World Made By Hand series, I couldn’t help but compare and contrast his dystopian post economic collapse America versus our current warped egocentric pre-economic collapse America. His world made by hand is forced upon Americans who have survived some sort of conflict resulting in the destruction of Washington D.C. and Los Angeles by nuclear blasts.
The Federal government has ceased to exist. The nation has splintered and varied factions are vying for power in autonomous regions of the country, but the small community of Union Grove, New York has been left to fend for itself. The four novels detail the trials and tribulations of average Americans in a small rural town after the implosion of modernity, as the world is stripped of its technological oil based comforts, devastated by terrorism, racked by epidemics, and having endured the ravages of economic collapse.
Kunstler’s dystopian future isn’t as bleak as the dystopian visions of 1984 or Brave New World. If dystopian means a world characterized by dehumanization, totalitarian governments, environmental disaster, or a cataclysmic decline in society, then Kunstler’s World Made By Hand series doesn’t match that characterization. There is more humanity and hope in his novels than you would expect in a dystopian vision of the future. The novels focus on various types of societal segments who represent the different courses society could chart after a breakdown of modern social norms, enforced by central authorities. Living through a national catastrophe and stripped of the modern conveniences provided by cheap plentiful oil, the citizens of Union Grove see their community falling apart from neglect, natural decay, disease, and lack of hope for the future.
Swing-state stunner: Trump has edge in key states
Looking at this impartially, Hillary is in big trouble. We all know the MSM is liberal and wants Hillary to win. Neo-cons want her to win. The entire establishment wants her to win. If these polls show Trump tied or slightly ahead of her, then he is really ahead of her by 5% to 10%.
Hillary is spending $500,000 to $1 million per day on attack ads against Trump. I’ve seen the despicable lowlife ads on TV here in PA. Trump has spent $0 on ads against Crooked Hillary. Imagine the ads his marketing team are creating for use down the stretch. He knows nothing stick four months from the election. He will blitz the airwaves in the last month.
No one likes, respects or has any enthusiasm for Clinton. The young Sanders supporters will stay home on election day. The blacks will not come out in numbers comparable to 2008 and 2012. PA hasn’t gone Republican since 1988. If Philly and Pittsburgh have low turnouts, the rest of the state is whiter than a ghost and will go Trump’s way.
The fact these polls are this close when Trump hasn’t even started to spend is a bad omen for Crooked Hillary. I can’t wait for the debates. They will be one for the ages.
Did Donald Trump really just surge past Hillary Clinton in two of the election’s most important battlegrounds?
New swing-state polls released Wednesday by Quinnipiac University show Trump leading Clinton in Florida and Pennsylvania — and tied in the critical battleground state of Ohio. In three of the states that matter most in November, the surveys point to a race much closer than the national polls, which have Clinton pegged to a significant, mid-single-digit advantage over Trump, suggest.
The race is so close that it’s within the margin of error in each of the three states. Trump leads by three points in Florida — the closest state in the 2012 election — 42 percent to 39 percent. In Ohio, the race is tied, 41 percent to 41 percent. And in Pennsylvania — which hasn’t voted for a Republican presidential nominee since 1988 — Trump leads, 43 percent to 41 percent.

HOW TO CONTROL THE NARRATIVE
DO NOT BELIEVE THE LYING MAINSTREAM MEDIA MOUTHPIECES FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT
The dying corporate media doesn’t have a shred of credibility left. They are mouthpieces for their corporate sponsors. Their job is to misinform, sway opinion to whatever their corporate bosses demand, protect the establishment, and distract the ignorant masses with drivel and infotainment. Impartial journalism is dead in the mainstream media. The only truth to be found is in the alternative media. And most of that is slanted.
Over the next four months the sole purpose of the corporate media will be to stop Trump from becoming president by any means necessary. The current method is to create fake poll results that show him so far behind Crooked Hillary that the outcome is a foregone conclusion. The polls a week ago also showed Britain would remain in the EU. Polls a year ago showed Trump had no chance of winning the Republican nomination. Don’t trust one iota of propaganda regurgitated by any mainstream media outlet. They have an agenda to elect Crooked Hillary. It will fail.
When doddering old fools George Will and Mitch McConnell denounce Trump it should give you further impetus to vote for him. When Obama and his minions cover-up and obscure the violence committed by Muslims, your only choice is to vote for Trump. When slimy Goldman Sachs scumbags like Hank Paulson, who fucked the American people up the ass with his TARP save a banker bailout, endorse Crooked Hillary, you know Trump is the only answer.
The enemy of your enemy is your friend. The corrupt, teetering, desperate establishment is flailing about in their death throes of debt. The feckless Fed has proven to be nothing but a banker brothel. Trump is unlikely to fix anything, but he would be the catalyst for the collapse of this corrupt social order. Change is coming. Fourth Turnings are a bitch for those in power.

IT’S A RECESSION
Tax receipts can not be manipulated. The government must report what they collect. They can’t seasonally adjust or manipulate the numbers to make them appear better. As the chart below shows, both Federal withholding taxes and State tax receipts are PLUNGING below previous recession levels. If the government propaganda machine is telling the truth, there are supposedly 2.3 million more employed Americans and the unemployment rate has dropped from 5.5% to 4.7% since last May.
How could withholding taxes plunge if this was the truth? The average wage supposedly went up by 2.3% in the last year. The truth is that withholding taxes can only be going down if less people are employed, wages are falling, and full-time workers are now part-time workers. Tax receipts don’t lie, but politicians and mainstream media pundits do lie. Their job is to lie and keep you misinformed and sedated.
If retail sales are positive, companies are thriving and employment is rising, how could state tax receipts (sales taxes, employment taxes, corporate taxes) be crashing? They couldn’t. Company profits are rapidly declining. The jobs picture is getting progressively worse. The people without the jobs aren’t spending. If they were spending, sales tax receipts would be increasing.
This chart reveals that virtually every government report is a bold faced lie. The data is sliced, diced, manipulated, adjusted and massaged to achieve a happy ending. Every economic report will be revised to a recessionary level two years from now late on a Friday afternoon when no one is paying attention.
If it looks like a recession, feels like a recession, and quacks like a recession, IT’S A RECESSION.
MSM JOURNALISM IS DEAD
YOU ARE HERE
“The next Fourth Turning is due to begin shortly after the new millennium, midway through the Oh-Oh decade. Around the year 2005, a sudden spark will catalyze a Crisis mood. Remnants of the old social order will disintegrate. Political and economic trust will implode. Real hardship will beset the land, with severe distress that could involve questions of class, race, nation and empire. The very survival of the nation will feel at stake. Sometime before the year 2025, America will pass through a great gate in history, commensurate with the American Revolution, Civil War, and twin emergencies of the Great Depression and World War II.” – Strauss & Howe – The Fourth Turning
The chart below was posted by Jesse a few weeks ago. It accompanied a post titled Gathering Storm. He doesn’t specifically refer to the chart, but his words reflect the ominous view of the future depicted in the chart.
“When gold and silver finally are able, through price action, to have their say about the state of Western fiscal and monetary policy actions, it may break a few ear drums and shatter a more than a few illusions about the wisdom and honesty of the money masters. Slowly, but surely, a reckoning is coming. And what has been hidden will be revealed.”
The title of the post and the chart both grabbed my attention and provide a glimpse into the reality of our present situation. The Gathering Storm was the title of Winston Churchill’s volume one history of World War II. Churchill documents the tumultuous twenty years leading up to World War II in The Gathering Storm. The years following World War I, through the Great Depression and the rise of Hitler were abysmal, but only a prelude to the approaching horror of 65 million deaths over the next six years. What appeared to be dark days in the 1930’s were only storm clouds gathering before a once in a lifetime tempest. In my view we stand at an equally perilous point in history today.
