Peter Thiel Helping to Fund MAGA Primary Challenges Against Republicans Who Voted to Impeach President Trump


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 13, 2021 | Sundance | 188 Comments

Progressive Democrats, Wall Street multinationals and the RNC establishment are pouring money into Republican incumbents like Liz Cheney in order to keep the UniParty structure as strong as possible in Washington DC.   The RNC, led by Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, is upholding a club rule not to give any Republican Party funding to primary challengers.   Ronna McDaniel plays for the other team.

Up until now, it has been grassroots donations funding GOP candidates/challengers who seek to defeat the DeceptiCons in the 2022 primary races.  However, some big money is coming in on our side to help the cause.  Removing Liz Cheney is one of the top priorities.

According to the latest campaign contributions, constantly reviewed by the Politico strategy team who are aligning the Democrat defenses against a massive MAGA wave next year, PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel, a friend of the blue-collar billionaire team and a Main Street MAGA supporter, is now stepping in to assist the challengers with financing.

(Politico) Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney’s primary challenger landed former President Donald Trump’s endorsement before she even officially launched her campaign. Now, she’s cashing big checks from Trump’s biggest donors — including tech billionaire Peter Thiel.

Thiel has contributed the maximum-allowed, $5,800 check to Harriet Hageman, the Trump-endorsed attorney running against Cheney in next year’s Republican primary. The former president has made Cheney, an outspoken critic who voted for his impeachment in January, his top target in the 2022 election, and now big-money benefactors like Thiel are piling into the race.

[…] The list of major Trump donors included on Hageman’s third-quarter fundraising report, which is set to be publicly released Friday, also includes Wyoming transportation executive Timothy Mellon, who was the single biggest giver to the principal pro-Trump super PAC, America First Action, during the 2020 election. Dallas real estate executive James Mabrey, Apple associate general counsel Douglas Vetter and Florida medical company executive Peter Lamelas also gave to Hageman. Other big names include Lynette Friess, the widow of Republican mega-donor and prominent Trump backer Foster Friess.

He has also contributed to army veteran Joe Kent, a challenger to Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-Wash.), who, like Cheney, voted for Trump’s impeachment in January. Thiel, a PayPal co-founder and early Facebook investor, met with Trump for over an hour at his Bedminster golf club last month, according to two people familiar with the sit-down. (read more)

Here’s the Ten DeceptiCon House members who voted to impeach President Trump over a totally bogus accusation.  These ten House Republican members also supported Nancy Pelosi in creating the January 6th Commission to help re-elect Democrats.  [*Note Anthony Gonzalez (OH) already conceded and will not run again]

If you’ve been in the battle for a while, you know what to do:

Select a candidate or candidates that you want to support. Then send them money, no amount is too small.

Second, it’s okay if you cannot send them money. Share this link with your friends, family, community and tribe. Distributing the message is just as valuable, if not more, than sending a direct donation.

Post links to the primary challenger you support on Facebook, Twitter and all your social media platforms. Help get out the word. Make a weekly reminder to keep doing this and spread your message out on different days and different times so you catch the maximum visibility.

If you live in the area, donate your time to help the candidate. If you do not live in the area, you may still volunteer your time to do phone calls, emails and Get Out The Vote (GOTV) efforts. Take action.

Be very visible with your support (yard signs etc). If the candidate doesn’t have the resources for signs, stickers etc, MAKE YOUR OWN.

Even if the candidate does have signs etc, remember you can save them campaign expenses if you make your own. Think big and act. Some of the most successful challenges have nothing to do with money, and everything to do with organization and determination.

Remember also, YOU MATTER. No amount of effort is too small. If you are new to the grassroot effort, think like an insurgent. Simple post-it notes left around (gas pumps, restaurants, etc) supporting your candidate are a simple and effective way to send a message. Keep imprinting the name. Simple post-it notes can have a big impact with name imprint: Ex. “Support Catalina Lauf“, written with a sharpie on a post-it note. That’s it. That’s all it needs to say. It puts the message out.

Keep all messages positive. We are all in the same foxhole. Put your support behind those who are standing up. Do not sit silent while our candidates stand in front of the fury of entrenched opposition. Stand with them. STAND.

If you are in the area of one of these challenges, network with the community and volunteer for anything you are able. No effort is too small, even making coffee or helping run errands can be a big assist. Key point…. keep making the offer even if there is nothing currently available that fits your schedule or ability.

When you turn your thoughts into action, you will be amazed at how positive your frame-of-mind becomes. Taking action is empowering.

Report – OSHA Sends Worker Vaccine Mandate Rule to White House for Review


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 13, 2021 | Sundance | 328 Comments

Several news outlets (Bloomberg below) are noting the Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), has submitted the worker vaccine rule to the White House for review prior to publishing as an ’emergency temporary standard’.

While this may be seen as disappointing by many, the moment the rule hits the federal register, it will be subject to lawsuits before implementation.  Until the DoL/OSHA rule hits the books, the mandate is nothing except a statement of intent.

Once the emergency rule is put into the register, then various state attorneys general and private sector employers or employees will be able to seek injunctions and challenge the legality. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis stated yesterday his legal team is awaiting the rule to be published to trigger his state’s legal challenge.

(Bloomberg) […] The standard implements the president’s Sept. 9 order for a regulation requiring businesses with at least 100 employees to mandate workers get fully vaccinated or be tested weekly for Covid-19. Biden also asked for the rule to provide paid time off for workers to get vaccinated and to recover from any side effects.

An emergency standard bypasses what is normally a years-long regulatory process. To do so, OSHA must establish that the vaccination or testing requirement was necessary to protect workers from a “grave danger.”

“The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has been working expeditiously to develop an emergency temporary standard that covers employers with 100 or more employees to ensure their workers are fully vaccinated or undergo weekly testing to protect employees from the spread of coronavirus in the workplace,” a DOL spokesperson said in an email. “On Tuesday, October 12, as part of the regulatory review process, the agency submitted the initial text of the emergency temporary standard to the Office of Management and Budget.” (read more)

Holy Hell, Australia’s Northern Territory Announces Mandatory Vaccination or $5,000 Fine Effective November 13th


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 13, 2021 | Sundance | 519 Comments

If Australia is the totalitarian beta-test for western government (which seems likely), specifically in alignment with Joe Biden, then today’s announcement from Northern Territory Chief Minister Michael Gunner portends the direction of the White House.

Chief minister of the Northern Territory Michael Gunner appears to be a man of intemperate disposition.  Describing himself as “intensely passionate” about forcing people to get vaccinated, Gunner announced today that all workers in the NT must be vaccinated by November 13th or face a $5,000 fine.

Good grief, considering this is a politician who presumably is responsible for leading people, this unstable guy projects himself as an angry power-thirsty totalitarian dictator.  WATCH:

The Northern Territory has seen just 214 cases of Coronavirus since the pandemic began in early 2020, and they have encountered zero deaths…. not one.  This over-the-top response is complete madness.

Around the world, an apartheid state has been created where two classes of people have been designated.  The unvaccinated are now routinely barred from indoor or crowded venues, “but the Northern Territory’s rules go further than most democracies”.  [Media Link]

Pfizer using Aborted Fetus for Vaccines


Armstrong Economics Blog/Vaccine Re-Posted Oct 13, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Deliberately hiding that fact to prevent religious exemptions both from Governments and from the people. They are making way too much money, to tell the truth! And they are feeding the politicians with lobbying fees for them to even ask questions.

BLS Report – 4.3 Million US Workers Voluntarily Quit Their Jobs in August


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 12, 2021 | Sundance | 260 Comments

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released the job openings and labor report for August today [DATA HERE].  The data shows that 4.3 million U.S. workers voluntarily quit their jobs in the month of August.  This is a significant jump from prior.

The “Quits” section [Table 4 breakdown] shows quits increased in August to 4.3 million (+242,000). The quits rate increased to a series high of 2.9 percent. Quits increased in accommodation and food services (+157,000); wholesale trade (+26,000); and state and local government education (+25,000). Quits decreased in real estate and rental and leasing (-23,000). The number of quits increased in the South and Midwest regions:

While this data is interesting and significant, it is only one data point within the larger U.S. main street economy.  Rather than me extrapolating on this data, I would like to hear your perspective based on your own local feeling about what is going on in your area.

Key points of reference would include:

  • While this is potentially related to vaccine mandates, the time frame in August is before the Biden mandatory vaccination requirement made on September 9th.
  • Housing prices overall (macro level) were/are high.  There is a lot more home equity amid working class families who own homes.  This could translate to a greater ability to change jobs or cash out for  a longer financial plan.
  • Workers in the real estate and leasing segment did not quit.
  • The highest quit rates were in the regions with the lowest cost of living.
  • Inflation is massive

I am interested to read your opinions on what could potentially be the largest contributing factor based on your town, city or neighborhood.

Ignore the financial pundits.  The question is: what do you make of this?

Jennifer Psaki was asked about this quit jump and she was poorly briefed in order to answer the question.  She is clueless.

The Real Deep State


Armstrong Economics Blog/Democracy Crisis Re-Posted Oct 12, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

What Greenwald is talking about is so true, and nobody will ever investigate. When I was in contempt, the FBI set up the girlfriend of a manager at Resorts Casino in Atlantic City. They had his girlfriend “help” a friend who said if she did not deliver drugs they would kill her. She tried to help her friend but the delivery of drugs was to an FBI agent pretending to be a drug dealer. They then threatened her life; she broke down and told her boyfriend, who then stepped in and offered to give them the money they claimed they were owed to leave his girlfriend alone. They arrested him as part of the conspiracy, which was the object. They then told him, which is standard, it would all go away if he agreed to act as an inside informant reporting on everyone who took a pile of cash from the casino or came in with cash. He refused and did his 18 months.

They took me for a little walk outside the courthouse and said I knew everyone, and that was worth a lot to them. In the same words, this can all go away if I agreed to be an informant inside the financial industry. My lawyer warned me they would do that and said I would be like a dog on a leash for the rest of my life. I also refused their offer.

Every drug dealer I did meet when I was in contempt said the same thing. If they had $500,000 in cash that was confiscated, their indictment said a standard 50%. Their court-appointed lawyer then tells them to keep quiet, for more money would mean more time. Cash routinely vanished and it all goes right into the Deep State — the National Security and Department of Justice.

I seriously doubt that any president can defeat the Deep State. It will take the army to rise up to defend the people. The CIA was created in 1947, and they succeeded in ensuring that Trump would lose. The entire COVID response has been supported by the Deep State, which was 72 years from 1947. Even in Canada, the military has used the pandemic to test physiological warfare on its own citizens. These people are drunk on their own power.

This will come to an end, crashing down in the face by 2033. The politicians are not in charge anymore.

FBI Can Take Everything in a Safe Deposit Box


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Oct 12, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT: Marty, you really do know what is going on. They raided safe deposit boxes here claiming someone was hiding money. You are right. Do not use safe deposit boxes.

JH

REPLY: Absolutely, no way! People are so stupid. It is like saying I don’t have anything to hide, so why should I care about the NSA recording every phone call? You do not understand. These people in government earn less than those in the private sector and look at all of us as criminals. There is no such thing as innocent until proven guilty. They assume everyone is guilty of something.

I was advising the Gaon family in Geneva. They owned the Noga Hiltons. I was invited to the grand opening of Herald Center at Herald Square, which I was told was one of theirs. When Ferdinand Marcos fled the Philippines with an alleged gold supply, the FBI came to my office and wanted to know where Marcos hid the gold. When I said I did not know and never advised Marcos, they did not believe me. It turned out that the silent partners behind a Geneva operation included Marcos, Quadaffi, and Adnan Khashoggi. Even years later, an FBI agent said to me, we know you don’t cooperate.

You cannot change their mind no matter what. Dealing in Geneva during the ’80s was one giant masquerade party. You never knew who anybody really was.

They will take a phone call saying pick up two pizzas and turn that into a “code word” for even two keys of cocaine. Whatever you say on a phone can always be twisted against you no matter what. You can have cash, pay all your taxes, and put it in a safe deposit box, and they will call it money laundering because it is “hidden” from the government’s view. Read the fine print on a contract for a safe deposit box, and it will clearly state you cannot store cash there. It is now theirs, and all they have to do is claim someone there is hiding something and search all the boxes.

When I die, they will probably say this is the guy who knew where Marcos’ gold was and would never tell.

FDA Corruption Claims the Benefits Outweigh the Risks without Explanation


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Oct 12, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) responded to Nordic countries limiting the use of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine last week, saying the shot’s benefits outweigh the risks. Now Iceland has joined Scandinavia and has also banned Moderna for heart inflammation. However, the Biden Administration is not transparent and mandates that everyone take that vaccine or lose their job. Under this premise, the right of the individual to determine with their doctor if they are willing to take that risk is no different than their support for abortion on the grounds that a woman has the right to decide about her own body.

The FDA is not independent and has a conflict of interest because it takes money from Bill Gates, who is a MAJOR shareholder in Moderna. Under SEC rules, anyone else acting in a conflict of interest warrants criminal charges. The Biden Administration is too busy counting the money from lobbyists to pay attention to their real obligation — do no harm to the people.

We already have Australian politicians caught taking money from Big Pharma and the head of Austria had to resign because he was paying bribes to the media for positive coverage. We have reached the point where the government is just no longer trustworthy about anything.
