1…………> Fox In The Chicken Hoop: ICE
Former Chief Counsel of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Office of Principal Legal Advisor Raphael A. Sanchez of Seattle, Washington, pleaded guilty to a charge of wire fraud and aggravated identity theft scheme involving the identities of numerous aliens
“It is the duty of our federal immigration authorities to ensure the honest enforcement of our nation’s immigration laws,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Cronan. “Raphael Sanchez betrayed that solemn responsibility and abused his official position to prey upon aliens for his own personal gain. We should not let one bad actor detract from the dedicated work done by all ICE agents and attorneys to keep our neighborhoods safe, and ICE should be commended for quickly and fully investigating this matter and referring it to the Justice Department for prosecution.”
Sanchez devised a scheme to defraud seven aliens for his own personal gain, using their personally identifiable information to open lines of credit and personal loans in their names, manipulating their credit bureau files and transferring funds to and purchasing goods for himself using credit cards issued in their names.
2………….> Cheats, Crooks & Liars: MS Investors
Two real estate investors named Shannon and Jason Boykin pleaded guilty for their roles in a conspiracy to rig bids at public real estate foreclosure auctions in Mississippi, according to Department of Justice complaint.
“Shannon and Jason Boykin are the first two defendants to plead guilty in the Antitrust Division’s active, ongoing investigation into anticompetitive behavior at real estate foreclosure auctions in Mississippi,” said Assistant Attorney General Makan Delrahim of the Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division. “In the past few years, the Division has secured convictions of over 100 individuals around the country. The Division remains committed to rooting out anticompetitive conduct at foreclosure auctions.”
According to court documents, Jason and Shannon Boykin conspired with others to rig bids, designating a winning bidder to obtain selected properties at public real estate foreclosure auctions in the Southern District of Mississippi. Co-conspirators made and received payoffs in exchange for their agreement not to bid.
3…………> DACA Dream: Political Nightmare
President Trump has said that any immigration bill must also include funds to build a border wall with Mexico, end the visa lottery program and impose curbs on visas for the families of legal immigrants, a bill advanced by GOP Senator Chuck Grassley that gained only 39 votes, as majority of D.C. swamp alligators voted for the familiar “gang of 8” crowd bill pushing open borders, endless unchallenged immigration and no wall at all.
It was a disgusting charade of irresponsibility as the “New World Order” cronies were more concerned about bunch of DACA illegals, instead of the lives lost to terrorism down in Florida.

4…………> Ultra Processed Food: A Cancer Risk
The team at University at Sorbonne Paris Cite used food surveys on two days to work out what people were eating, using a sample of mostly middle-aged women who were followed for an average of five years.
A link between highly processed foods and cancer was suggested by French researchers as use of “ultra-processed” like mass-produced packaged breads and buns, sweet or savoury packaged snacks including crisps, chocolate bars and sweets and alike suggested that the more of such foods people ate, the greater their risk of cancer.

Stock market old timers have said that “you buy the rumor, and sell the news”, and that is exactly what is happening right now, with Democrats screaming murder as a close look at the new FISA memos that are suggesting an incredible Constitutional crisis brewing, a crisis that may reach the very leaders of the “opposition party”. DIA resistance is in the 27,000 area, with supports at 24135, 21354 and 18900 level, US dollar in down trend, resistance at 1.003319 CHF, support at .92 and 0.9: Gold in uptrend, watch break resistance of 1377 to be taken soon. The massive Fed balance sheet contraction will result in a $600 billion dollars being dumped on the credit markets each quarter, a leftover of the horrendous $4.3 trillion money printing of Obama’s septic tank that will surely exert a severe pressure on stocks and financial assets.

We warned long ago that an organized attempt to remove President Trump from office is underway, and if this activity is not curtailed soon, market will open on gap below 20,000 with next stop 17300 and 11800 support levels.
Stocks were up 307 to 25200, DJ futures at +27.
Gold up to 1361.8 and USD/CHF down to 0.9221 due to intervention crosscurrents. Translation? As the dollar goes down, we have to wait and see if the new Fed Chair Jerome Powell will continue pressuring gold and the Eurasian block with it down below $1000/oz in an economic WW3. Watch sell stop at 24,900. We have to wait and see if new Fed chair Powell will attempts to destroy Eurasian block by sending gold prices below 1000, despite the fact both Russia and China have been buying their whole gold production in local gold backed currency instead of money printing machines. In other words, US has lost controls of the precious metals complex, and with Trump’s infrastructure and tax cut campaign the National debt will soon be at, or over 30 trillion dollars, since D.C. swamp alligators have no intention dropping their pet projects. Read “Ziban Must Die” for more details on the coming collision of Trump’s administration with “Deep State” operators funded by the billionaires supporters of the New World Disorder.
