Goldman Sachs, or Government Sachs as they are known in the industry, has bet on the establishment candidate. The person who has already spent four years in the White House will somehow repair the damage they caused to the US economy, according to Goldman Sachs, who strongly believes America should stay on the same losing trajectory.

We estimate that if Trump wins in a sweep or with divided government, the hit to growth from tariffs and tighter immigration policy would outweigh the positive fiscal impulse” from maintaining most tax cuts, Goldman economists stated. Remember that Goldman Sachs places their employees within the US government as there is an ongoing revolving door. “We estimate that the contribution from immigration to labor force growth if Harris wins would be 10,000 per month higher than if Trump wins with divided government,” and 30,000 a month higher than if Trump secures the vote.

America has spent billions on the migrant crisis which has toppled state and city budgets. We have over 8 million newcomers now living solely off government assistance. Goldman is preaching the same propaganda that these migrants are needed for America’s workforce, despite recent data showing a major slow in hiring in addition to numerous adjusted jobs reports that show NO new jobs have been created outside the public sector under Biden-Harris. They believe GDP would peak by 0.5 percentage points in Q2 of 2025 under a Trump victory.

A Harris victory would lead to a “very slight” boost in GDP compared to Trump, as “new spending and expanded middle-income tax credits would slightly more than offset lower investment due to higher corporate tax rates.” The “experts” believe that “the effects of policy changes would be small and neutral on net,” but the truth of the matter is that a Harris victory would guarantee a major economic downturn. It is astonishing that they expect the public to believe that the middle class will increase their spending through tax credits. They simply do not understand that a lack of confidence is the reason that people hoard, and under this economy, the middle class does not have any disposable income to spend.

Then they state that Trump’s tariffs on China, Mexico, and EU would cause inflation to rise by 30 to 40 bps. I do not support tariffs but we are seeing the Biden Administration slam China with new tariffs and one could reasonably believe Kamala would do the same. Do they understand Kamala’s corporate tax hike proposition and how that would decimate America’s ability to compete?

Harris is proposing taxing capital gains including UNREALIZED gains. The American public has nothing left to offer Uncle Sam and rest assured Harris will raise taxes as her countless spending packages come at a price. Goldman Sachs completely failed to consider the impact government spending has had on the overall economy.

Most importantly, Government Sachs did not factor in the strongest driver of inflation – WAR. War produces nothing and will not lead to an economic increase. Kamala Harris along with Joe Biden helped America become completely embedded in Ukraine and now Israel. Trump is the only candidate who wants to stop sending endless checks to Ukraine and end the war.

Prisons Collaborate with the Private Sector – Free Labor


Posted originally on Sep 6, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Slavery is alive and well in the United States. Two-thirds of US prisoners, 800,000 men and women, have jobs in federal and state prisons. While 80% of prisoners work to maintain the prison in terms of maintenance, a growing portion of prisoners hold jobs for private companies. Estimates that that these prisoners are producing at least $11 billion annually for the US government and receiving little to nothing in return.

Non-industry workers can earn between 13 cents to 52 cents per hour. Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina and Texas are not required to pay these workers. “There’s no way we can take care of our facilities, our roads, our ditches, if we didn’t have inmate labor,” Warren Yeager, a former Gulf county, Florida, commissioner said to the Florida Times-Union. In other words, states have become reliant on free labor from prisoners and actively put this into their budgets.

What some do not understand is that private companies are also employing prisoners. McDonald’s, Burger King, Golden Corral, Walmart, Wendy’s, IBM, Boeing, Motorola, Microsoft, AT&T, Texas Instruments, Dell, Compaq, Honeywell, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, TWA, Nordstrom’s, Revlon, Macy’s, and Target are among hundreds of private companies that have active agreements with state governments to farm out their prisoners. The private companies pay the prisons directly, bypassing the people who are forced to work long hours with no protections.

These workers have a far lower rate at being released on parole. The state believes they are safe enough to work among the public, but refuse to offer them an opportunity to leave. Only non-violent offenders are offered these jobs and most are swindled into accepting the positions to obtain favorable housing.

Alabama, for example, allows non-violent prisoners to work in the private sector for pennies. Yet, the state takes away 40% of their pay before taxes, charges them fees for transportation, laundry, and any extras they find. Alabama now earns more than $450 million annually on the backs of these workers.  It comes at no surprise that the parole rate in Alabama plummeted to 8% in 2023.

Prison Camp

American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) found that over 75% of workers are unable to take off work, and if they do, they risk being sentenced to solitary confinement and prevented from visitations with their families. About 70% of these workers said they cannot even afford to call home or purchase soap. They are denied all rights and treated as sub-humans. “The United States has a long, problematic history of using incarcerated workers as a source of cheap labor and to subsidize the costs of our bloated prison system,” said Turner, a principal human rights researcher with the ACLU’s Human Rights Program.

“The private contracting of prisoners for work fosters incentives to lock people up. Prisons depend on this incomeCorporate stockholders who make money off prisoners’ work lobby for longer sentences, in order to expand their workforce. The system feeds itself,” notes a study study by the Progressive Labor Party, which accuses the US prison complex of being “an imitation of Nazi Germany with respect to forced slave labor and concentration camps.”

Private prisons, in general, operate as businesses as they are guaranteed a fee per inmate, which US taxpayers pay. The majority of people are African American and Hispanic, but we hear silence from communities demanding reparations and failing to acknowledge that modern-day slavery is alive and well in the US. The private sector is creating jobs for the prison industry on behalf of the US government and this is one of the reasons that we see a decline in available jobs. The business is extremely lucrative because they profit on holding the inmates as well as forcing them to work.

So, these human beings were deemed stable enough to work unsupervised with the public. Yet, those same decision-makers turn around at sentencing and tell these workers that they are simply too dangerous to return home. This is why the United States, home of the free, hosts the largest prison population in the world. It always comes down to greed and money.

Known Wolf – FBI States They Were Aware of Threats from 14-Year-Old Georgia School Shooter, Colt Gray


Posted orinally on CTH on September 5, 2024 | Sundance

Schools are closed for the rest of the week in Barrow County, Georgia as the community deals with a major tragedy.  Four people including two students, and two teachers are dead; nine others are injured after 14-year-old gunman Colt Gray opened fire at Apalachee High School in northern Georgia.

More than a year ago, tips about online posts threatening a school shooting led Georgia police to interview a 13-year-old boy, but investigators didn’t have enough evidence for an arrest.  Colt Gray has been charged as an adult in the deaths of Apalachee High School students Mason Schermerhorn and Christian Angulo, both 14, and instructors Richard Aspinwall, 39, and Christina Irimie, 53.

Two school resource officers encountered the shooter within minutes after a report of shots fired went out … The teen immediately surrendered and was taken into custody.

(VIA CBS) – The teen had been interviewed after the FBI received anonymous tips in May 2023 about online threats to commit an unspecified school shooting, the agency said in a statement. [SOURCE LINK]

Unfortunately, this prior warning -and the inaction therein- aligns with our previous discussion of the FBI and the factual mission of the organization.  {GO DEEP}

19 days for the FBI to arrive in Benghazi, Libya. This explains why…

Operation Crossfire Hurricane. This explains why…

40 FBI agents with Robert Mueller investigating a ridiculous Trump-Russia conspiracy for 2 years…

Missing Huma Abedin laptop, this explains why…

FBI targeting Sharyl Attkisson, planting classified documents on her computer….

Hillary Clinton emails, this explains why…

Missed Parkland shooter warnings, this explains why…

Missed Boston Bombers, despite warning from Russia, this explains why…

Missed 911 threat, missed San Bernardino, missed Pulse nightclub, this explains why….

Targeting James O’keefe over Ashley Biden diary,… this explains why…

TWA800, this explains why…

Targeting True the Vote after they reported PA voter rolls sent to China, this explains why…

J6 pipe bombing buried, this explains why…

I could go on all day. However, once you understand what the true mission priority of the FBI is, then everything makes sense.

Everything makes sense.

Chase Bank “glitch” is the new term for Check Fraud


Posted originally on Sep 5, 2024 By Hannah Jackson

Over the weekend, people have taken over a trend that had been going viral over writing fake checks to themselves and depositing it into their accounts by going to the ATM and taking out the allotted amount written on the checks. The check amounts would be for an obscene amount and the people would just keep withdrawing until the check would bounce. It started with a group of people making a video telling everyone to make a check out to themselves and go to the ATM and keep withdrawing and they would come up with thousands of dollars- a lot of people caught on to this and followed their lead.  The ones who followed this scheme shared videos of themselves actively going and doing this crime, proving to others that they should do it, too. Well.. they surely did out themselves for jail time.

This glitch is something that the bank programmer probably never anticipated. Normally, if someone were to write out a check to someone knowing that the check would bounce due to the amount of time it takes for a bank to catch it, which is usually 5-7 days since it must clear between two banks. Normally you would not withdraw that money until it clears. But going the route of just writing yourself the check within the same bank- that is something that a programmer just probably didn’t see coming since it does not need to clear from an outside bank. What people are failing to realize is this is downright bank fraud. This isn’t some “glitch” in a video game. How does one think they can go to the bank and deposit a fake check and come out with thousands of dollars? If you look up the term ‘bank fraud’ it specifically says it is the use of potentially illegal means to obtain money, assets, or other property owned or held by a financial institution. It blows my mind that people would believe that a bank would just give away “free” money without any repercussions. These people will be looking at jail time along with fines- not even including the money that they will have to pay back to these banks that they have stolen. Chase had fixed this problem within a few days of the discovery. A spokesperson from Chase said “We are aware of this incident, and it has been addressed. Regardless of what you see online, depositing a fraudulent check and withdrawing the funds from your account is fraud, plain and simple.”

Do people really believe the hype? Are they that gullible to think that they will get money for free from a bank? Money that they had to write a fake check in order to gain access to that money? It seems that people are just following the lines of trends without thinking of any backlashes or repercussions.

Catherine Englebrecht From True the Vote is Funding Livestream CCTV Cameras on Ballot Drop Boxes


Posted originally on the CTH on September 4, 2024 | Sundance 

In the information war era, the targeting mechanisms have moved away from content targeting to direct targeting of the voices who produce the content that is averse to the interests of the DC state.  This is where we see agencies like DHS and the FBI coming into the picture.

One of the first targets in this new era was Catherine Englebrecht of True The Vote.  Mrs. Englebrecht was targeted because her organization was essentially the first nation-wide effort focused on sanitizing the local voting rolls that generate voting ballots.  In the mail-in vote era where ballots are more valuable than actual people voting, the process of disqualifying ballots before they are printed is a problem for those who rely on fraudulent ballots existing.

Being relentless in their effort to find new and innovative ways to combat the ballot fraud, True The Vote is now partnering with willing Sheriff’s offices (the highest constitutional officer in every county).  The objective is to place CCTV Cameras on ballot drop boxes in the key areas where ballot fraud is most likely.  Catherine Englebrecht explains:

It’s not an end-all fix, and it certainly is only one component to combatting ballot fraud; however, the process of monitoring the inbound ballot delivery process is one part of a larger effort to stop/deter ballot fraud.

Election 2024 – Battleground Pennsylvania


Posted originally on the CTH on September 4, 2024 | Sundance

As you guys know, my current focus is research of the James Clyburn network of precinct level ballot scanner operations.  Previously we mapped the trip by Clyburn through Wisconsin (pre-Biden withdrawal). Next, we mapped the DNC/Clyburn travel through Michigan.  Currently we are looking deeply into Pennsylvania.

From what I can ascertain, the two regions where the Clyburn ballot operations [harvesting/scanning]in Pennsylvania seem focused are: (1) Philadelphia County (Philadelphia city and metro area) and Allegheny County (Pittsburgh city and metro area).  That’s it.  Those two areas are where most of the high velocity Democrat operations seem to be focused on Pennsylvania, Philly and Pittsburgh.

That being said, our ballot tracking research has hit an unexpected issue.  I am hearing reports on the ground about “regional” ballot printing operations where local (precinct level) mail-in ballots are being printed from software downloads.  I need help confirming information.

Normally I would not reach out until I could confirm or validate the details of what I am told.  However, on this issue I am against a timing deadline. The gist of what I am told, again – seeking to confirm this, is that a portion of potential mail-in-type ballots are not physically coming from the Secretary of States office, rather they are being printed locally.

If this is an accurate lead, localized printing may complicate the issue of address validation and challenges presented to local supervisors of elections as a result of fraudulent addresses (empty lots, Wal Marts, businesses, etc).  If precincts can print ballots, which are then later scanned, this could potentially be a vector for fraud.

My question is whether anyone has heard of this issue before? ….and/or does anyone have information about allowed ballot printing in any state where the printing of ballots has become very localized.  Who generates the voter registration rolls if absentee ballots are printed locally?

“I talked to two people today, Democrats who know the state very well. They both said that they thought Harris was not only behind in Pennsylvania, but they thought she was likely to lose the state.”

~ Mark Halperin

President Trump is holding a Townhall event in Pennsylvania today:

“Less than a week before Ms. Harris and Mr. Trump are set to meet on the debate stage, the race is shifting into high gear — with a particular focus on battleground states. Mr. Trump’s event in Pennsylvania, hosted by Sean Hannity, will air at 9 p.m. Eastern time on Fox News. Mr. Walz will spend a second day in Pennsylvania on Thursday, while Mr. Vance is set to continue campaigning in Arizona. Both states went to Mr. Trump in 2016, then to Joseph R. Biden Jr. in 2020.”
