I think the Fed needs to go first.

'Rich people won' â€" Cramer says Fed rate hikes widen the wealth gap by hurting working Americans
The central bank led by Jerome Powell is taking money out of the pockets of the middle class, says CNBC's Jim Cramer.

It’s interesting as the demokkkrat media tries to incite a recession by endlessly talking about fears of recession, the fed is raising interest rates proving the economy is still booming.

You tend to savage globalist inconsistencies with reckless abandon, that much I will earnestly confirm.

You say reckless abandon as if you think there’s something worth salvaging about it. I don’t share this view and think it’s worthy of savaging just as slavery was/is.

[Metron2267]

Powell is waging war on the middle class.

He MUST go!

Have a green comet for Christmas!

The comet’s close approach lies in the top 10 comet appearances in the last 70 years. It will be visible not only on Sunday night, but into the next weeks. Farnham explained it can be seen Monday and a few days after in the same, powerfully colored state as Sunday. After that, the color may fade, but the comet will still be visible.

And remember, earth is just a cosmic shooting gallery:

“We cannot wish globalism away,” Bush said, noting that the United States must sustain “wise and sustained global engagement” for the future of the country. Bush indirectly accused Trump of fueling dangerous ideologies that threatened the unity of the United States and global stability, spending a large portion of his speech complaining about social ills in the country.

Whoa there, Dude.  Slow down and take a breath.  If you want to continue this discussion we’re going to proceed in an orderly fashion which is the first rule of debate.   A blizzard of polemics accompanied by ridiculously slanted videos and memes advances no ones argument and is in fact counter productive (and please, can we dispense with all the little yellow smiley faces.)  First we need establish terms of reference.

The attached Wikipedia article contains varying definitions  of “Globalism.”  Although it is only a light treatment of the subject, I believe that it is a fair summary and can be used as a point of departure for the discussion.  I invite you to provide an alternative as long as it is at least mínimally scholarly and not the work of a popular conspiracy theorists.   Let’s see if we can agree on the following:

The Breton Woods Conference, officially known as the United Nations Monetary and Financial Conference, was a gathering of delegates from 44 nations that met from July 1 to 22, 1944 in Breton Woods, New Hampshire, to agree upon a series of new rules for the post-WWII international monetary system.  The term used to describe the underlying policy is globalism. 

As indicated in the attached Wikipedia article  “globalism” has taken on different meanings over the years depending on one’s political persuasion and there is a range of views between those that, if not polar opposites, are widely disparate.

At one extreme there are those who believe that globalism is the product of an effort by U.S. politicians, economists, industrialists and bankers to leverage the Nation’s singular economic power
to take advantage of foreign countries whose economies had been ruined by war.  Adherents to this view assert that it was and continues to be an effort by the aforementioned rich and powerful to solidify U.S. hegemony in the post war world and that it cedes no real power to the international community.   

At the other extreme are those who believe that from the beginning the vision and intent of the of Breton Woods conferees was to reduce America’s political and economic power so that a cabal of rich and powerful  transnationalists that include the aforementioned greedy Americans would be positioned to dominate international trade and finance thereby reaping untold profits.  However, at some point this group of elites will install a socialistic one world government stripping the U.S. and all nations of their sovereignty. 

We go no further until we sort this out.  Pls. get back to me with any points of agreement or disagreement in a post that is less than one BG page in length.

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/globalism
the idea that events in one country cannot be separated from those in another and that economic and foreign policy should be planned in an international way

https://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Globalism

Globalism is the failed liberal authoritarian desire for a "one world" view that rejects the important role of nations in protecting values and encouraging productivity. Globalism is anti-American in encouraging Americans to adopt a "world view" rather than an "American view." The ultimate goal of globalism is the eventual unification of humanity under a one-world government.

Globalists oppose nationalism, national sovereignty, and self-governance. Instead, they favor open borders, free trade,[1] H-1B visas, interventionism, foreign aid, and changing the U.S. Constitution. They oppose strong border security and the building of border walls. Globalists virulently opposed Donald Trump in 2016. Instead, globalists preferred Jeb Bush, John Kasich, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz for the nomination, the latter of which have voted in favor of the globalist agenda as senators. Globalists can come from several political leanings, from the far-left to those considered on the right-of-center.[2] George Soros and the Koch brothers are globalists. Globalists falsely claim that mass migration is necessary for economic growth.[3]

Liberals support globalism because it leads to centralized power, thereby providing liberals with an easier way to gain control. Liberals can more easily persuade a handful of people in centralized government to rule in their favor than convince everyone of their agenda in a decentralized form of government. Goals of American globalists include:

"harmonizing" our laws with foreign ones, rather than vice-versa
amnesty for illegal aliens, open borders, no border wall
more visas for guest workers
repealing the Second Amendment
eliminating the abortion issue from politics by making Roe v. Wade permanent
repealing the Electoral College
a parliamentary style of government
repealing the Treaty Clause
supporting many unnecessary treaties, like NAFTA and the Paris climate agreement, which don't receive Senate approval
removing state sovereignty and, eventually, establishing a one-world government

Let’s see if we can agree on the following:

The Breton Woods Conference, officially known as the United Nations Monetary and Financial Conference, was a gathering of delegates from 44 nations that met from July 1 to 22, 1944 in Breton Woods, New Hampshire, to agree upon a series of new rules for the post-WWII international monetary system.  The term used to describe the underlying policy is globalism.

As indicated in the attached Wikipedia article  “globalism” has taken on different meanings over the years depending on one’s political persuasion and there is a range of views between those that, if not polar opposites, are widely disparate.

No, globalism is generally seen as global governance, there simply are transitional states to full globalism like the unholy EU and the rejected League of Nations and it's Godless spawn - The United Nations. Subsidiary globalist trade "deals" , the Kyoto Protocol , and regular international monetary incursions are simply foot soldiers from inside the Trojan Horse.

At one extreme there are those who believe that globalism is the product of an effort by U.S. politicians, economists, industrialists and bankers to leverage the Nation’s singular economic power to take advantage of foreign countries whose economies had been ruined by war.  Adherents to this view assert that it was and continues to be an effort by the aforementioned rich and powerful to solidify U.S. hegemony in the post war world and that it cedes no real power to the international community.

That is little more than a pallid set of camos for what is a far more encompassing program mundial. 

At the other extreme are those who believe that from the beginning the vision and intent of the of Breton Woods conferees was to reduce America’s political and economic power so that a cabal of rich and powerful  transnationalists that include the aforementioned greedy Americans would be positioned to dominate international trade and finance thereby reaping untold profits.  However, at some point this group of elites will install a socialistic one world government stripping the U.S. and all nations of their sovereignty.

So you accept that the UN is their Trojan Horse, yes?  That they seek to usurp our Constitutional rights by the cudgel of "treaty", true?

Grn   Angela Green   2.4%   57,442

Shoot, that's only about 200,000 raw votes that went to the Republican candidate in the Governor's race and not the Republican candidate in the Senate race?

Yeah...right...

The Senate vote will be historic.   In the short term, those who vote nay or present will be forced to own every egregious crime and needless death that is sure to result from their refusal to secure the border.  Beyond that their names will be permantly linked to the decline of America just as certain Roman elites are linked to the fall of Rome.
