What gets my panties in a bunch is , this is the plan. If something is so FUBAR'ed as what's going on here how can you keep doing the same shit and expect different results...insanity I tell you! Except it's not, the orders being carried out are exactly as planned. We are treated as chattel, not allowed to work, buy or own land without first paying our masters. Now that things have about run it's course globally there is one thing left we have too much of, humanity. .Gov has loaded up on weapons and ammo...

Report: U.S. Rescue Team Was on Its Way to Benghazi, But Was Turned Back

The evidence is overwhelming that the United States had several rescue teams ready to go during the 2012 Benghazi attacks, but someone -- possibly the president himself -- prevented them from acting. So said Emmy Award-winning journalist Sharyl Attkisson to talk show host Steve Malzberg in an interview on Wednesday.

At the end of the story they claimed the attacks went on for over 8 hours. According to testimony the total time of the attacks was in minutes not hours so this whole story is riddled with bullshit. The time between attacks was 8 hours. The last 2 would have never died if they had gone back to the airport, after going to the compound, instead of the CIA annex where the bad guys were waiting for someone to show up so they could drop mortars on them. If those so called rescue teams had gone there they would have suffered the same fate. The someone told someone who told me so I'm telling you is just hearsay not evidence. The waters are being muddied with bullshit to keep the hard questions from being asked and allows Hillary and the Obomber to skate as incompetents instead of the real truth of running guns and jihadists to Syria to start a war and to intentionally bring chaos and terror to the ME and Africa with the huge stocks of "liberated" Libyan weapons.

I can't remember the actual terms of a MyRA, but I do remember them to be awful. Loan the USG money at an effective negative rate, then be forced to put the money into a privately managed retirement account once the total hits $10k. Other terrible terms, but those two really stuck out as fleecing the sheep.

On a more serious note, [edit] Lloyd Blankfein , (Here too is the man himself) , had the 5 tickets...

Goldman Sachs to pay $5bn to settle financial-crisis mortgages

https://www.rt.com/usa/329110-goldman-financial-crisis-settlement/

Goldman Sachs said it agreed to a $5.1 billion civil settlement to resolve federal and state probes into its handling of mortgage-backed securities before the 2008 financial crisis.

======= Tis a friday news cycle...

The proposed deal, which the Wall Street giant announced in a Thursday statement, would settle “actual and potential civil claims” by the US Justice Department and the attorneys general of New York and Illinois, as well as state regulators, against Goldman.

The authorities investigated the bank’s securitization, underwriting and sale of residential mortgage-backed securities from 2005 to 2007.

"We are pleased to have reached an agreement in principle to resolve these matters," Goldman CEO Lloyd C. Blankfein said.

The New York-based bank would pay a $2.39 billion civil monetary penalty, make $875 million in cash payments and provide $1.8 billion in consumer relief, such as mortgage principal forgiveness for underwater homeowners and distressed borrowers, and support for debt restructuring.

back in the day we had pensions. Boy have we come far!

"Members of Congress are eligible for a pension at the age of 62 if they have completed at least five years of service. Members are eligible for a pension at age 50 if they have completed 20 years of service, or at any age after completing 25 years of service. The amount of the pension depends on years of service and the average of the highest three years of salary. By law, the starting amount of a Member’s retirement annuity may not exceed 80% of his or her final salary."

Guarantee you the Hail Yellen is already burning up the phones...Obama doesn't want a full on crash to Hooverize his legacy and nor can he afford it if he cares to get Hillary into the WH....first you will hear Fed Presidents trotted out next week about how rate hikes are in the toilet and then they will VERY subtlely start to suggest that stimulus in the face of new data and world weakness is what is needed...good for 1000 pts on the Dow within a week.

Hillary in an orange pant suit would soothe a whole lot of folks, I think. Bribe takin', body creatin', war criminal.

Maybe Martha Stewart could give her advice on good clean prison living.

Killary being indicted would be the perfect distraction. The Presstitute Media would be more than willing to comply, Scripted, and, the Sheeple would eat the False Narratives. Compelling TV.

The air time the OJ Trails ate up would Pale in comparison.
