If FISA really brings down the house, consider this:

Team T$ baits Pee-lousy and Schiff-head into articles of impeachment. Then the FISA declass we’ve all been waiting for happens showing that the house dims were in up to their eyeballs on the effort to take POTUS down.  That would likely bring down the House efforts against POTUS and set them up like bowling pins for the 2020 election cycle.

I’ve been wrong about most of this so far so not likely, but fun to contemplate and an elegant plan if it plays out that way.

The only fly in that ointment is the eventual cries of POTUS interference in the impeachment process if declas happens before the senate trial.

Discuss.....

Sure, it would be great til she decides to hop back over to the Dem's (which she will, just a matter of when "they" call her back over).

Plus remember a huge number of her supporter's are 12-13 years old to 17 y/o...NOT old enough to vote (or matter) at this point for the 2020 election. By the time the 2024 comes around? Who knows.

This is ARFCOM's beloved TayTay (Taylor Swift (I think)).  You have just committed sacrilege akin to putting 9mm rounds into your chili.

I don't understand the fascination, have no idea about anything she's sung/performed/whateveritisshedoes.  The new Spiderman has a better ass than she does, and I'm not even remotely into boys, but she does have an interesting face.

But, she's the darling of ARF, and she's just stood up to Soros, so I'll keep an eye on her.

You may be right and I may be wrong. I definitely would prefer her when she is not speaking against the Republicans and Trump. Anyone talking bad about Soros & crew is always a good thing, though I won't get my hopes up for Taylor being a true blue supporter just yet.

If she is as smart as some people say she is, Taylor will naturally migrate to more conservative views as she ages.

I just don't understand why she let someone else get away with purchasing her music instead of doing so herself. I'm sure she would have plenty of financial folks willing to back her in that endeavor if she had pursued that path.

I recognize that early in their career entertainers have no choice and their music catalog rights is part of the sign on package that R & D gambles on. Singers are so hungry to get signed and have a career, they give up almost everything. Just seems like as soon as I became successful and started bringing the big bucks, I would find a way to buy back my musical catalog rights. Isn't royalties where performers make most of their money over the years? I'm thinking if you own the whole enchilada, you make all the cheese?  

I hope that was understandable. I don't mean to be argumentative.

ETA: It is kind of weird that both Kanye & Kim, and now Taylor (possibly) are riding the Trump train. Good weird though.

I read something the other day that Somebody should look into for a connection. Someone has made a purchase of one million 1.75 gold call options at $4000 that mature next May. Who bets with that kind of money and why would anyone think gold would hit $4000 by next May?

If gold is not $4001.75 when those options mature, he loses 1.75 million dollars.

Now, it’s not a simple as that from what I read. If the price of gold sharply rises for some reason before May, those options could rise in price from 1.75 and he could sell them then, but obviously it looks like someone here seems to have some inside info on a black swan type event that is going to move the price of gold sharply.

I will look for and post a link later when I’m on my computer.

It's not next year, it's 2021, so you have Brexit, China, T$'s re-election that can all affect prices.

One thing we can safely assume is that this didn't happen in a vacuum, I'm sure the Greeks played a part, not the Gyro eating ones in the Mediterranean. Delta, Theta, Gamma, Vega the ones professional traders look at. When looking at a trade like that it is very dangerous to assume that the person who made that trade thinks it will be profitable, in fact with large option trades they very often WANT to lose, they are trying to offset risk from something else that will make even more money for them, but use the options as a backup plan in case things go wrong. As to who bets with 1.75 million, that's pocket change on Wall Street, this probably offset a gamble ten times that much.

I doubt this is anyone with inside information, if it was I would hope they were smart enough to make some smarter trades that are a little less noticeable.

So, how hard could it be to just Build A Wall along the Border? Bring in the dozers and backhoes, get a crane to lift the sections in place and hammer it out. Welding the sections would be a constraint, but we have a lot of fabrication assets in America and plenty would bid on it.

Well, maybe not so much. Does the US actually control the Border? Simple question, why, of course we DON'T? Really?

It appears a UN based organization does. We've seen some pics in the past that showed gates padlocked open, I had to wonder what that was all about, seems now it's coming out.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2019/12/exclusive-we-build-the-wall-president-brian-kolfage-corrupt-international-organization-controls-southern-border-not-dhs-or-border-patrol-video/

Here's the TL;DR for you iltwitterates: The International Boundary and Water Commission has that authority. They choose when and where the wall stays open, like it or not. Build The Wall has now finished a section the Cartel desperately wants to keep open, so, the head of the IBWC ordered it padlocked open. Janyne "OC" Harkins ordered it for her workers to pass back and forth. Build The Wall put up a camera with live feed to show 1,000 of illegals using it and they claim they have yet to find more than one worker a day from the IBWC using it.

If you were cartel, would you not comp the border administration and keep your mules chugging to the metros? Anyway, I found the page with the live stream cams here, scroll down: https://webuildthewall.us/

cold links don't overwhelm them or get us linked back. We made that mistake with DU, remember? BTW is considered "friendlies" lets not let some mole get a whiff. I have no doubt there are "assets" who likely have infiltrated them, after all, since when has this been a fair fight?

With this in mind, now consider, just how hard is it to build the wall? Apparently we need to kick some UN butts. And I haven't even mentioned the "National Butterfly Sanctuary" they are claiming would be endangered with a wall running thru it. OMG The Butterflies!

The More You Know.

I'm not some big financial guy but this bet has caused a lot of people that are, to sit up and take notice. Whatever reason they did it for, there's a huge amount of counter party risk on the line and people are asking questions.

You know who makes bets like that? Soros. That's why I posted it here.

Steven Hall is a retired CIA chief of Russian operations and CNN national security analyst. He tweeted this after the IG report was publicly available. This is as frightening as is possible and confirmation of continuing insanity by some of the intelligence community. This is also proof that POTUS Trump was validated to have/had concerns with trusting any work produced by the IC.

Bryan Dean Wright, also a former CIA operation officer who is "allergic to DC egos", has a much different take on things...the truth. How can our POTUS manage to weed out the good from the bad and ugly?

I read something the other day that Somebody should look into for a connection. Someone has made a purchase of one million 1.75 gold call options at $4000 that mature next May. Who bets with that kind of money and why would anyone think gold would hit $4000 by next May?

If gold is not $4001.75 when those options mature, he loses 1.75 million dollars.

Now, it’s not a simple as that from what I read. If the price of gold sharply rises for some reason before May, those options could rise in price from 1.75 and he could sell them then, but obviously it looks like someone here seems to have some inside info on a black swan type event that is going to move the price of gold sharply.

I will look for and post a link later when I’m on my computer.

ETA: Here’s the link. Read down into the comments for some knowledgeable speculation about the WHY would someone do this. The comments have more info than the article.

It's not next year, it's 2021, so you have Brexit, China, T$'s re-election that can all affect prices.

One thing we can safely assume is that this didn't happen in a vacuum, I'm sure the Greeks played a part, not the Gyro eating ones in the Mediterranean. Delta, Theta, Gamma, Vega the ones professional traders look at. When looking at a trade like that it is very dangerous to assume that the person who made that trade thinks it will be profitable, in fact with large option trades they very often WANT to lose, they are trying to offset risk from something else that will make even more money for them, but use the options as a backup plan in case things go wrong. As to who bets with 1.75 million, that's pocket change on Wall Street, this probably offset a gamble ten times that much.

I doubt this is anyone with inside information, if it was I would hope they were smart enough to make some smarter trades that are a little less noticeable.
This was a subplot in the book the Bonfire Of Vanities .

ETA
Also recall that Russia and China were recently buying/repatriating tons of gold.

Wait a minute, Iran invaded Iraq?  I thought they had a bunch of civil unrest to contend with?

Since his pill metaphor is entirely wrong, as a matter of consequence the rest of it is.

Pills are designed to treat a symptom, and in many cases perpetuate the disease not cure it.

Trump is a Surgeon excising evil, not a pill peddler perpetuating it.

When you have internal unrest, create external threats to distract and make calls to patriotism.
As old as man.

I'm not some big financial guy but this bet has caused a lot of people that are, to sit up and take notice. Whatever reason they did it for, there's a huge amount of counter party risk on the line and people are asking questions.

You know who makes bets like that? Soros. That's why I posted it here.

Soros is smarter than that, most people are. A big block like that smells like two algo's matching up. If a person wanted to buy 9,000 contracts @ $4,000 and another 4,000 @ $3,500 most traders would get it done without the media noticing. Someone would have to take the time to look at open interest in June 21 calls to notice it, The media only noticed the 5,000 contracts that were bought in a very short time period. Doing something like that is sloppy. Trading 1/8 the daily volume of a product in one trade is going to raise eyebrows, and doing it at such an extreme price is going to wake up the morons in the media, someone else was able to buy another 4k contracts without anyone noticing.

The big money is in Dec 20 calls, 60k open contracts between $2-3000 and another 2k @ $4,000 strike price.
