On NO news, for NO apparent reason, and with NO concern for getting the best price, the precious metals have suddenly and out of the blue "sold off" with Gold down over 1.3% (its sharpest drop in a month) and Silver down over 2.8% (its sharpest drop in five weeks).
Nothing is happening with bonds, stocks are fairly inert, and the Dollar seems unchanged.
Makes you 'wonder' who is DUMPING all that paper with no other concern than driving the prices down and running the stops to wipe-out the bid stack.
- The BIS or FED at the behest of the Gnomes of Zurich perhaps?
Of course with JPM and now DB having jumped the metals ship, who is left on deck to "rig" the prices these days.....

The Relentless Hillary Clinton
By Alan Caruba
Who said:
“We’re going to take things from you on behalf of the common good”
“It’s time for a new beginning, for an end to government of the few, by the few, and for the few…and to replace it with shared responsibility, for shared prosperity”
“(We) …can just let business as usual go on and that means something has to be taken away from some people.”
“We have to build a political consensus and that requires people to give up a little bit of their own…in order to create this common ground.”
“I think it’s time to send a clear message to what has become the most profitable sector in the entire economy that they are being watched.”
“I certainly think the free market has failed.”
Was it Joseph Stalin? Lenin? Hugo Chavez? Kim Jong II? All reveal a communist philosophy.
It was Hillary Clinton. Over the years, Hillary has made it clear that the redistribution of wealth—communism—is central to her beliefs and that her regard for capitalism and the free market economy of America is nil.
The election of Hillary Clinton would be an extension of the two terms of Barack Obama and, if possible, worse.
There are moments when a politician’s opportunity to win elections passes—often unnoticed at the time. I think that time was 2008 when Hillary lost the Democratic nomination to an unknown Senator from Illinois who offered “hope and change.”
Eight years later, having served as his Secretary of State, she will share his growing disapproval as Obamacare unfolds as the perfect namesake of the worst President the U.S. has ever known. And then, of course, there is their shared Benghazi scandal.
For these reasons, I believe Hillary will decide her time has passed and elect to avoid the ordeal of a presidential campaign even if the Democrats gave her the opportunity.
Her long career in the public eye has been filled with scandals and failures, not the least of which was her early advocacy of “HillaryCare.” When her husband was President, she was put in charge of developing a plan to take over the healthcare sector despite the fact that she was not an elected official, but merely his wife. It was overwhelmingly rejected.
The most astonishing thing about the 2016 elections is that the Party still regards her as the sole candidate to run for the presidency even as 2014 Democrats seeking reelection are fleeing the disastrous failure of Obamacare and the huge debt that Obama imposed on the nation. In addition, elements of the Party’s base, Millennials—younger voters—and Hispanics are among those deserting it while some are beginning to call for Obama’s resignation.
There is something so disconnected from the facts, from reality, about the Democratic Party that it suggests that those who remain within its numbers are deranged.
Some political pundits will be inclined to dismiss Hillary as too old to run, that her agenda would not stand up to examination, that she would be in effect Obama’s third term, or that her record as Secretary of State is littered with lies and failures.
Democrats do not vote based on such things. They vote out of a nostalgic attachment to its past, to its message of fairness and equality, out of concern for its false “war on women”, “income inequality”, and the accusations leveled against the Republican Party and the Tea Party movement. Democrats will be driven by the belief that it is time for a woman to be President, no matter how awful her qualifications or political beliefs.
This is also a belief of the nation’s leftist media and the momentum of news coverage about Hillary will be orchestrated by her. In the meantime, she will earn tidy sums giving speeches and receiving every leftist award that’s out there. No doubt there is a book in the works as well.
Hillary has left a long record of scandals in the course of her “public service.” The most recent was the lies about the killing of an American ambassador and three security personnel in Benghazi on the 2012 anniversary of 9/11. Most famously, under questioning she said, “What difference does it make?” Nowhere during the course of her service as Secretary of State is there a single major international treaty or significant accomplishment. Indeed, her tenure is marked by the severe loss of respect for America and its influence over foreign affairs.
The Clintons have always been about the acquisition of money to fund their lifestyle. In 1979 Hillary earned $100,000 profit on a $1,000 investment in cattle futures within the course of just nine months. She was guided to the windfall by a highly placed Tyson Foods connection. An investigation into her role as an attorney with the Rose law firm was stymied until its billing records magically appeared in her White House office, years after they had been subpoenaed.
Like Obama, Hillary never recalls anything involved with her past. She knew nothing. She was the victim of others around her. It’s all a right-wing conspiracy.
The real conspiracy has been the takeover of the Democrat Party by the far Left and its elected office holders who appear to have no regard for the decline of the nation thanks to their relentless spending and borrowing.
Hillary Clinton has been among the most relentless of all Democrats, concerned only with her determination to become the next President and for the acquisition of wealth that puts her and Bill firmly in the one percent of the extremely wealthy that Democrats and liberals defame.
A significant defeat of Democrats in 2014’s midterm elections will influence her decision. A lot can happen between now and 2016. Even the mainstream media’s fixation on getting her elected may decline. Stay tuned.

ZoNATION: Live MLK's Dream, And Get Called 'White Man's Whore' For It
Left leaning people are funny. They claim to love Martin Luther King Jr., and try to own his legacy, yet call people 'sell outs' and 'traitors to their race' when people like Adam and Tamera Housley fall in love.
So Zo doesn't believe their so called reverence for MLK . And just as they get angry about people living out his dream, they get angry about the idea of him being a Republican, and insist that he couldn't have possibly been one. Considering the contradictory nature of leftists, Zo doesn't see much reason to believe them on that either. Here more in this ZoNation.

The (imagined) Horror of Dennis McGuire's Execution...........................by Dudley Sharp
The Horror is that the media will have 10,000 more articles about the imagined suffering of executed rapist/torturer/murderer Dennis McGuire than they did about the real suffering of his victims, Joy Stewart, her husband Kenny, unborn child Carl and their families and friends.
Dennis McGuire anally raped/tortured/murdered Joy Stewart, a 22 year old newlywed who was 30 weeks pregnant.
There is no indication that McGuire was conscious at any time after the first 30 seconds of the 25 minute execution process, as pharmacological realities would dictate (see below).
There is every indication that Joy Stewart was conscious throughout the eternal horror of her savage rape and murder. McGuire forced Joy from her car, choked her, attempted to rape her vaginally, raped her anally, slashed her throat so deeply it severed both her carotid artery and jugular vein, all the while Joy realizing the horror of her own death, as well as that of her unborn child.
The baby’s name would have been Carl, his mother’s grave marker shows.
Joy's husband, Kenny, committed suicide within a year after their murders.
McGuire had more time on death row than Joy had in life.
McGuire's children have threatened to sue the state over their father's just execution. So foul. They have learned so very little.
Their only comments should have been:
"We are truly sorry for the horror and suffering that our father has caused to Joy, her husband, their unborn child and to Joy and Kenny's family and friends. Our thoughts and prayers will be with them, always."
Do folks gasp, wheeze, moan, etc. while in their sleep? Of course, which is all that happened with McGuire.
Possibly, someone in the media will look up the overdose properties of the drugs involved (below) and tell us how McGuire could, possibly, have been conscious. He couldn't have been.
The properties of the drugs and their overdosing effects are very well known - by no means an experiment.
FACT CHECKING: Midazolam & Hydromorphone
A lethal overdose of either drug, will cause unconsciousness, first, prior to the expected respiratory distress, coma and death, if pharmacological realities mean anything.

GOLD: Rats. Ship. Sinking................................from Rico
Like LIBOR 'fixing' was a conspiracy, until it became a 'fact' so is the rigging of the precious metals markets...considered by some a 'conspiracy' but soon to become a 'fact' and a painful one at that.
Connect some dots:
- JP Morgan recently 'quit' the precious metals markets, and now Deutsche Bank has...
- Last year, Germany requested the repatriation of 674 tons of its Gold held offshore, the bulk of it at the FRBNY. They were told to go fly a kite...
- Of a minimum 87 tons scheduled to be repatriated to Germany of this 674 tons, only 37 tons have been so far. Only five (5) tons came from the FRBNY, the rest from Paris...
- China has likely more than doubled its Gold reserves (as far as they will openly admit) from 1,054 tons to 2,710 tons, overtaking Italy and France while breathing down Germany and America's backs...
- Want to 'bet' that China will replace Deutsche Bank on the LBMA (China became a member in 2011) "Gold fix?"...
And meanwhile, the 'unusual' yet seemingly 'new normal' shenanigans continue on the (CRIMEX) spot market.
- A desperate sign that the metals 'manipulation scheme' is nearing an end?
Take away: Hold Gold (Panda's) and/or learn Chinese. Neither one will hurt you like Western fiat paper will.

Was Israel's Defense Chief's "Gaffe" a Gaffe?...................from Dan Friedman
[It was only a few days ago that Israel’s Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon called John Kerry “messianic and obsessive.” What followed a day or so later was Ya’alon’s perfunctory apology. Now consider the fact the man was the head of Israel’s military intelligence and that he chose to make his feelings known in a (HEH) “private conversation” with a senior reporter from Yedioth Ahronoth, a major Israeli daily not known for its love of Netanyahu or his government’s policies. Add to that, there has been no official reprimand or public upbraiding to date. Far from it, the dust hasn’t even settled yet and Ya’alon is still at it – choosing his words very carefully. So frankly, his “gaffe” is looking more like an authorized unauthorized leak to me.
It may be premature – or wishful thinking - to conclude that this is an indication Israel has finally caught on to Obama’s game and has decided it’s better off not playing. But as the moment of truth arrives for Israel, Iran and the USA, we should know with greater clarity. df]
