US Attorney General Has A Message For The American Markets: Beware Of Foreign Spies
Following the arrest of 3 Russians on Wall Street for alleged spying, the message from John Carlin, assistant US attorney general for National Security, is clear, "they want what you have." The "they" are multiple foreign nations spying on the US financial markets and the "what you have" is, according to Carlin, financial markets that are "the envy of the world." As we explained recently, it appears the pretext for the scapegoat of the next possible (June rate hike-inspired?) market crash is being prepared, as Carlin confirms, "it's not just the Russians, there are multiple foreign nations that want to gather as much information about" the stock market as possible. When asked why, his response, "they are doing this for a number of reasons."
Carlin explains... "they want the secrets of how Wall Street works"

Heck, who ever they are, "They" can have it.
Foreign spies......OH!!! ya mean Goldman Sachs.... I get it
Here's the secret
Ipo a crap company
Assign a 100 plus PE
and let every swing dick trade it
Till it robs everyone a thousand times over
Then rinse and repeat for 7,000 stocks
Got it?!
Yea, and, it's all Headquarted at The Global Criminal Oligarch Cabal Bankster Intelligence Crime Syndicate located at the City of London, CiA, NSA & Jesuit Vatican.
When the US government spies on people, it's good.
When other governments spy on people, it's bad.
Why? Because the US government and coporate/financial elite are the good guys, and everyone else are the bad guys.
Any questions?
Next up? An announcement that the Russians and other foreign enemies don't want a Bush or Clinton to be the next President, and will do anything to skew poll numbers to make it appear that Americans want someone else.
That's very Maduro-esque.
If the corrupt, banana republic shoe fits....
Yes...Eat It!!
Errr, wait!
beware of domestic spies. moar fear, moar scared of the newest enemy. russia, the new boggie man. run, hide under the bed.
reality check, some of the russians i know are really smart cool people, some shady too...not afraid of real work.
Rumor has it they are also infiltrating KFC to reverse engineer “eleven secret herbs and spices”.
Beware of thick Russian accents taking orders over drive-through speaker.
KFC doesnt tell local shops, they'd have to use Cubans to pose as Mexicans to infiltrate the spice mixing facility in East LA.
It appears that the Russians and other foreign countries are on our side.
They hate us for our FREE DUMB?
They hate us for our PPT.
When you say "our" you do NOT mean the US Dept, correct?
Dear Attorney General, dont forget to use a differnet scare tactic, we have already used "they hate us for our freedoms", be creative and make it good....yours truly TBTF and TPTB...
That guy couldn't convince a class of 1st graders with that kind of dumbass explanation.
FFS, this is the best they can do?
"they want the secrets of how Wall Street works"
ROFLMAO
If they want the secrets, go to Tel Aviv and London.
It's really no secret how this works. "Investor" deposits money into brokerage account. Broker steals 5-20% of funds in transaction fees through chruning and burning the account as many times as possible. The remaining funds are then skimmed off by computer traders through HFT front-running. Any remaining funds that are left are then disposed of by the fund manager taking the opposite side of their client's funds just prior to collapse of market. When the market collapses and and scares the shit out of the "investor" and that "investor" sells at a loss and prior to the government mandated withdrawal date, additional funds are taken through Uncle Sam and his taxing scheme, along with early withdrawal penalties.
The market gets goosed back up and the "investor" comes back in at the top, forgetting everything that just happened. Rinse and repeat.
Did I miss anything?
..Aaannd It's GONE!
They appear to have the "Pay Oligarchs huge amounts of money" part down pat.
Wall Street, and New America, has a secret:
The strong do what they will; the weak suffer what they must.
Shhhhhh! Don't tell anyone.
They want to steal our ideas for innovative financial products. What if they discover the BTFD strategy and plunder our markets?! Ghasp!!
Like you said, they can have it.
This is the funniest thing I've ever seen! Comedy gold!
I thought the US had the most transparent markets in the world. Isn't that what makes US great? What's so secret?
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2015/02/06/ex-nato-chief-warns-putin-could-...
Cue up the market calamity, blamed on "foreign powers", who hate us for our Freedum and our free and fair markets.
Damn, that's some funny shit right there coming from the country who sports the NSA spying on the world. At least the stage is set for the next crash.
Of course the NSA spies on us to increase our freedom.
I've never felt so free.
Well, there was that one night with dream girl, but that aside....
Exactly. "They want what you have", or alternately, they want it back!
Wasn't there a movie recently made that set the stage for this scenario? Further, I saw a commercial for "The Americans", apparently about Russian spies living here. Pre-programming has been well underway. Smart people will for this, even those in the electronics and software world. Our 'leaders' of the State and industry can do no wrong.
Shadow Recruit is the movie you are talking about, and yes pre-programming is well under way.
http://youtu.be/0rdyGl415NQ
I propose that we call humans "EEPROMs", on the count of our memories can be erased and programmed via electronic mediums.
uhh, you mean trillions of balance sheet crushing derivatives? Fine, take 'em.
They want our Precious Bodily Fluids.
Where do they get these Gov't morons?
"They want our Precious Bodily Fluids."
And consider that that used to be the punchline of a running joke.
The finacial markets are how the US enslaves the world, that's why.
+1000
If they want it bad enough, I'm certain they can find a Congressperson to buy it from.
For beneficial action as well as information, just follow the accepted American SOP and "buy your own Congressman" (or a few) - http://www.theamericanconservative.com/pricing-political-influence/, and the "going price" was not that high 5 years ago ( https://prof77.wordpress.com/2010/10/07/buy-a-congressman-for-1-million-or-a-senator-for-10-million/ ). That way they can "adjust" policy to their benefit, and (courtesy of the "Revolving Door" employment model) still have a very useful (beholden) connection when "Their Man (or Woman)" moves into the "right" Private Industry.
In view of these facts, the article is just empty fearmongering, especially considering the wealth available to the Russian well-connected. With the Senate comprising 100 Senators, it is very well within the financial means of many individual Russians to "buy up the entire House", at least in theory.
As to whether this is an impossible scenario - remember "everyone has his (or her) price", and the Russians can be very persuasive (especially the very wealthy, who will have the right connections by default - "Very Wealthy" including the current Russian President . . . .)
only Goldman can do it. maybe also the NY FED. maybe both.
Is this a Saturday Night Live skit because if it is it's the funniest one ever.
They are provoking the muppets into shorting a clearly negative situation....they can goose any market anywhere via the ESM Exchange Stabilization Fund at their US Treasury Department.
Yellen Fischer Lew etc etc etc stay out and go short these clowns .....keep stackin
ROFL. You can't make this stuff up.
They laid down that ridiculous marker, so what can they do but go with it?
No better way to get people behind war than to cut their 401k account in half and blame it on country X for causing it
What is a 401k? Did you mean a myRA or something?
It's a tool I only use to get the maximun company match and then remove the contents via a loan to buy PMs and guns.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
Ours is 1 loan per year
thank god there are no russian quant geniuses working for HFT/algo firms. wait a second...
Smoke, mirrors and lies are securitized and then unknowingly bought by John Q. Taxpayer via their 401k.
What kind of insider info are 'they' hoping to glean?
GOLDMAN IS FOREIGN ENEMY SPY #1.
Beware, Americans: YOU ARE BEING WATCHED.
And not only by the NSA. Er... never mind. Aw, fuggedit, someone baad...er... or not... er... well, we'll say someone is watching you and that's all you need to know.
beware of SPY. don't short it, they are watching.
Lining up who to blame the economic crash on...
Says the guy who works for the Muslim from Africa that is bent on redistributing my wealth..
Oh dear
According to my copy of "Flash Boys" most of the HFT programmers are Russian.
This will improve with the new monetary system....promise...
No need for spies. Our markets eat their own, so with a handful of press releases and the appropriate leveraged bets, a foreign nation can skin the West alive - jujitsu style
Our best counter - get rid of paranoid jokers like this attorney.
Yeah, blame Russia! They are not the ones spying on us. They are not the ones who devalued our currency over 95%. They are not the ones leading us into the upcoming collapse and war.
I’m not saying Russia is the shining light of liberty, but they aren’t the boogeyman that the corporate media and government make them out to be. The cold war is heating up by the day. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best. One thing is certain, however. The dollar will crash. Buy silver and protect you wealth. A great way to get someone interested in silver is by giving them a candle with a silver coin: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ScentSavers?ref=hdr_shop_menu
No thanks, I'll stick with my Rumpelstiltskin chia pet.
Yeah they want to learn the secrets of defrauding their citizenery. This guy just admitted that anything coming from Wall Street is fake.
FBI warned of this in 1987. The corruption is systemic. The numerous NSAs are operating without any restraint or oversight, so they are kicking ass. Can't compromise with them, its all or none, to the death. The only way to stop them is to kill them all and burn down their apparatus while we still can.
Start with the UN.
As the situation worsens, the level of media and governmental "hype" skyrockets. I'll scan the channels while I'm stuffing my face. It's almost laughable when stopping on CNN, MSNBC, FOX.... ISIS this, terrorism that. 24 hours a day. Now those damn Russians are going to steal everything. Who watches this shit????
The whole thing is going down in a smoking hole. Even the dumbest is going to figure out it ain't no foreign entity that caused it all. All eye's (should be) focused on the Fed, Government, Media, and education (and let's NOT forget AIPAC). Once the target has been clearly identified...........
Double top secret here, but I'm working on a machine gun that fires 'crisis headlines' right through the TV. There seems to be a market and it's expanding.
You mean the Chinese nationals that were hired years ago to work on top secret defense projects?
or the Russian PhDs that have written half the code anyway?
Writers of code aren't as dangerous, as writers of compilers.
If you find one wack his peepy.

<- major cyber event first
<- major kinetic event first
That's why thry're shutting down the comex pits. Openness, and transparency are criminal activities directed against the state.
2015 the year we lost liberty
spy can have my liberty
What's all the fuss? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27ATt3FXAUY
what is really funny is the russian "spies" who instigated this warning consisted of one guy asking another guy what he should ask his boss, to sound smart. the guy sounded so afraid of his meeting that he broke some protocol(lunch date, hook up, sinister spy stuff). the "incriminating" part was the mention of hfts and market manipulation tangentially as evidence of a plot to manipulate the market.
i am surprised anyone pays to see comedians.
Those 3 Russians wnated to know how ETFs destabilize the market. I never saw any comments directed to that statement , is it their assumption that the markets are currently destabilized? ETFs could be pushed-off their intrinsic values by heavy buying or selling, just like the CME futures, and cause "program-like" buying or selling in the underlying stocks. In the case of SPY, it would affect the entire market.
Oh, I get the joke now: The Banksterz are getting themselves a scapegoat for when their rigging comes unglued, ah......This guy's last name is Carlin? Really? Come on.......
For those still in the stock market, now might be the time to go through the hassle of obtaining physical stock certificates?
"it's not just the Russians, there are multiple foreign nations that want to gather as much information about" the stock market as possible."
I will sell my "it is always going up" observation for 3 million.
From a personal standpoint - he can go F himself. So Russia "learns" your "secrets"? What would that be?
Step 1 - Get government to screw over taxpayer via multiple mechanisms (QE et al)
Step 2 - Get government to give me the money from Step 1
Step 3 - Profit, fear monger, profit.
Step 4 - Go to Step 1.
I'm much more concerned with the fact that the US government has the capability to intercept EVERY electronic communication on the PLANET and is BUILDING a storage facility to HOUSE these (illegally) intercepted communications.
Wait - it gets better.
We ONLY learned about this from one Mr. Snowden. Meaning if he didn't spill the beans this would all be going on in secret. (Not that Americans care or even understand).
Wait - it gets better
Recently (past year) Congress stupidly (I know, I know) voted Admiral Rogers head of the NSA. Wait, is that the SAME Admiral Rogers who is head of the military Cyber Command? Why yes it is. So this individual is now dual-hatted? Why yes he is.
Trust me, this is NOT a good thing.
"it's not just the Russians, there are multiple foreign nations that want to gather as much information about"
This Carlin sure isn't Carlin, but he sure is hilarious for a treasonous criminal.
The banksters need to repay us.
They want Wall Street's secrets: How to secew the most people in the shortest amount of time.
Hahaha. More distraction for the goyim. Rabbi Roger Ross officiated marriage of John Carlin and Sarah Newman in 2002. Everything is kosher. All in the family. Amerikan markets all kosher controlled by Kehillah in New York. All world markets kosher controlled by House of Rothschild from City of London. We say “Russians” for Red Mafiya. Still all in the tribe. Only “secret” about financial markets is that stupid goyim are blind to kosher control. Oy Vey!!!
It seems the DoJ is deep into ridiculous propaganda lately. Few weeks ago, another assistant attorney general at the DoJ uttered the following propaganda line:
“We understand 80 percent of traffic on the Tor network involves child pornography.”
(Maybe we should also Watch out for elite E-T-F hackers emerging from there.
Coincidentally, it was just the other day that the operator of Silk Road has been convicted. He was running his criminal enterprise on the Tor network.)
But if you subscribe to the idea, that these maggots always speak the complete opposite of reality, those comments should be really interpreted like this:
those nations don't want to have what they have. In that sense he must be talking about the Dollar and USTs.
"it's not just the Russians, there are multiple foreign nations that want to gather as much information about" the stock market as possible. When asked why, his response, "they are doing this for a number of reasons."
This is probably the biggest news story out there that isn't getting covered.
Why?...
Becaue the Chechen rebels were such an integral part of the CiA and Mossad's adventures after 1991 with the reshaping of Eastern Europe starting with the decimation of Yugoslavia, attacks like Belsan and Volgograd inside Russia, then Georgia and now Eastern Ukraine. With this announcement from the ex-Chechen Rebel the game is over in terms of providing any further coverage to ISIS/ISIL in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and most importantly Ukraine! Putin got it all locked down after the Volgograd train bombings!...
The Anglo-American establishment completely lost it's base when it sent it's messenger (already dead with a replacement) to threaten Russia before the coup in Ukraine last February and lost BIG TIME by acting on those threats!...
Now it's up to U.S. merc volunteers in Europe, North America and Australia, and of course the pill-heads that are still active U.S.military after 14 years of combat to hold the "shit bag"... Judging by the body count for NATO regulars including mercs I wouldn't want to be them in the "Second Act"
I think this is why Merkel and Hollande made the visit to Moscow because"They merely want to save their proxy army from annihilation."!!!
Merkel & Hollande wanted to transfer more gold to the BRICS bank.
Merkel & Hollande wanted to transfer more gold to the BRICS bank.
Among other things....
Looks like the "whizz kids" at puzzle palace central got their work cut out for them if they are eager to going to the next level!
I see a dead Georgy Schwartz of "natural causes" in the Trilat/IMF's future! And I believe this is also why you are seeing Kissinger and now even Zbig walking away with their pie hole(s) shut because they realize it's gone way too far!!!
Seems "The Skeletons" are starting to emerge from the proverbial cupboard.
There are lots more, and the Russian strategy is to let "others" release these little bomblets, since Western programming has ensured the public perception of such releases by Russia being immediately labelled "Russian Propaganda", so immediately discounted as irrelevant / fictitious.
Not quite so easy to "blame the Russians" when others start letting the cats out of the bags, especially when these others have been held up as "reliable sources" (per the Western MSM when they have lies / halftruths to peddle!)
GOLDMAN IS FOREIGN ENEMY SPY #1
comical our* govt is totally controlled by foreign spies and agents, its getting so bad foreign govts are complaining about the agents running out govt and media (NYTIMZES)
*I'm just assuming everybody here is an "American"
This wreaks of a lame intro to blame game politics. Anti-Russia public relations 101.
They were arrested on Wall Street, as in they were traders lurking around? There is nothing to access that couldnt have been done online via hack or otherwise.
Carlin - "it's not just the Russians, there are multiple foreign nations that want to gather as much information about" the stock market as possible.
How is learning the functions of a stock market illegal?
which foreign spies?
The spies living in Holy Islamville, SC living next to the Nuclear Power Station?
Riddle me this. There have been hundreds of Israeli spies caught in America in the past 10- 15 years and not a peep. School shootings ect. by Jewish domestic terrorists not a peep. BUT 3 Russians going after Jewish money and its a problem.
Having sat here and watched this moron babble inanities, I can tell you that I have never felt less secure.
Yes it's almost a comedy that this guy has the role of assistant US attorney general for National Security. Wow what has become of the people who represent this country and enforce the laws.
Watched the interview. This "assistant US attorney general for National Security" speaks unintelligently and not deserving of respect on such a serious issue. Reminds me of the young lady Psaki, totally unqualified.
They were just looking for moose and squirrel.
F*&K US officials scare mongering. With enemies like our officials we don't need to worry about Russia and China.
I think they might be afraid the Russians would have blown the whistle on all the scams they might have unearthed. Secrets, huh? Tell me why it's so important to keep secrets that puts a once prosperous nation on food stamps and runs up the largest deficit in history!
Poor Russians... They were trying to acquire best practices and learn more on the transparency and integrity of the U.S. Stock market in order to implement them on the russian stock exchange. But unfortunately this is the top secret information. Nobody is supposed to know how the Wall Street operates.
Alex,
Get a Life son
http://www2.gibson.com/News-Lifestyle/Features/en-us/A-Salute-to-Alex-Li...
FFS gib son. why U no like? LULZ
Audit the FED, you'll find it infested with foeigners manipulating the American economy. Plenty of treason going on up in there.
Pretty slick to set up blaming the next collapse on even more unidentifiable villains than 'terrorists'....now we got to be on the lookout for 'Blacklist' type
dudes.
The Russian mission was quite clear: make a note of everything they're doing, so we can avoid doing it here...
You are being set up for a
FALSE FLAG
They will blame the crash on whatever country is most useful to DEMONIZE.
Instant scapegoat, like three guys with box cutters....
I worry about handy monkeys like Carlin far more than I worry about Russians.
Every Russian, Chinese, European, Japanese, Austrailian ahole is working for the banks in every country. This whole game is starting to stink like Mc Carthy. Where will it all end?
Fucking LMFAO! Don't these foreigners realise they can just watch Cramer???
Just what is the formula for th Crabby Burger?
Let them eat cake
Don't be fooled.
The inmates run the asylum.
UGH. Everyone is preparing to lay the blame at someone else's feet for the coming crash. Economic scapegoating will be all the rage. Why must it be one group or another- one asset class or another- one nation or another- the left or the right. If you participate in life you have a stake in the outcome whether it is bad or good. Now of course there are varying degrees of involvement but we all participated, even those who are as dumb as nails when it comes to finance- their lack of knowledge had a hand in the outcome. Let's just fix it without going through the hassle of a war. I mean where in the rule book does it say there has to be a war before an economic reset. I am tired of all the posturing- enough foreplay.
All the Russian, Chinese, Indian agents have to do is ask the people who work at these companies, they hire thousands of foreigners so it should not be that hard to find out the ins and outs. Just buy them some vodka, kung pao chiicen or Chiken tiki marsala.
No Israeli agents then ? They are too deep inside the Pollard Pentagon no doubt. When we see "the Americans" Matthew Rhys doesn't seem interested in Wall Street
I need some help here, weren't these Russians just after some questions?, I thought the US Markets were supposed to be open and transparent....supposedly, surely they have heard of Amazon and the thousand books that have been published on the Markets and how they theoretically function? is it that hard for Russians to get an Amazon account?
Alternativey they could attend any one of a thousand financial seminars currently underway every day around the world as to why its a awesome idea to buy shares at the peak of the biggest Bubble in history and why paying banks to keep your money is a solid way to save for the future, had trouble explaining this to my 18 year old cousin who seems to think spending is the way to go.
The word unidentifiable from above is a key word here.
These so called cyberattacks are the easiest false flags, if someone ever wanted to create one for distraction or to be able justify pushing for more surveillance and crackdowns.
It's also largely media based. Quite possibly for the most part of it, and that's a reliable working proposition as things are today.
We've just had a big deal the other day. The Anthem hacking.
Coincidentally, a day later, in other news, there were also some memory-refreshing bits and pieces sprinkled in for ya: Sony Pictures Co-Chairman steps down after email hack.
Coincidentally, the movie Blackhat is playing in the theaters since January 16. It's about evil hackers.
Coincidentally, they're now back with this stock market spy theme. Not directly a computer security story as such, but it's financial stuff like the insurer the other day, it's spies, so it's sneaky stuff like hackers, so you get the notion, serf.
Let's look at this Anthem thing. Really, buying/blackmailing as few as one person to provide a key tip off for remote access or to let him copy the data himself at his workplace might well be all it takes. Taking 80 millions records of that kind directly at site can be done pretty quickly without drawing attention.
It's also pretty easy to forge evidence and attacker traces (it's all digital) and to obfuscate the crime scene with some garden variety attacks on nearby run-off-the-mill PCs to point the fingers on those as entry points for the intrusion.
At any rate, it's impossible for the public to validate the evidence presented by the corporate-state media and agencies. The only choice is to go with the narrative at hand. But of course, the government would never float lies, right?
On anthemfacts.com, they state it was a "very sophisticated external cyber attack". Yes, your things are under attack, from elite external forces, your social security number, let the fear sink in, serf.
Of course, they didn't steal any credit card data. That would've been too much hassle for our banker friends right now. So the cybercriminals after hanging out the systemz while downloading the stuff, decided to call it a day at some point and put it all up on Pirate Bay.
One other thing worth noticing there is the following.
Propaganda outlet NY Times writes:
"Anthem said that the breach was detected on Jan. 29, ... Anthem set up a website, www.AnthemFacts.com, and a toll-free number ..."
However, the whois records show that the anthemfacts.com domain name has been registered on 2014-12-13.
- But the investigation has pointed out the Chinese did it.
Not saying that's not a realistic scenario. However, getting into the core database of a big corporate system that's up to 2014 standards by just going straight at it from a remote location without any inside info is a very, very unrealistic, borderline impossible scenario.
If this notion of some evil genius dudes in dark rooms pounding keyboards till the screen flashes 'ACCESS GRANTED' is still popular, that's pure Hollywood BS fairy tales.
There's a reason why even the biggest and baddest boy of them all, the NSA, is playing tricks, as we've learned, like diverting hardware shipments to bug them or requesting hardware and software makers to put backdoors into their products. It's about having attack surfaces to work with. But even then, probably the most workable scenario is to actually use these to target and spy on select people to gain knowledge and to get into a good position for the main objective.
And like so, political pressure, intelligence buddies and cooperating corporate fascists may reenter the picture.
Only in conspiracy theories of course, and only in which bankers and friends may want to use their powerful apparatus to build up some BS hate and hysteria inducing narrative as a cover for the case the house cards comes crumbling down again.
4 years and counting and the SEC still haven't told which guys were momentuming during the flash crash. Now, that would be funny if they came out in short order after a 1000 points down gap in the Dow knowing how secret agents did it.
