WWIII, Robinhood and the 2021 Battle of Wall Street

January 26, 2021 a significant event began on Wall Street

Remember this date. Remember it well. It marks the beginning of one of the battles in the undeclared war that has been going on for the past few years. And it truly is a World War. It is being fought on multiple fronts all over the world. It is an undeclared war, and its players are working behind the curtains. And if my guess is right, there are factions operating even within single countries or governments.
But do you wonder why you have not heard about it through the Lamestream News? Why is it not on the tip of everyone’s tongue. Is there a body count? Machines of War? Hatred of one side vs another?

Target Wall Street – Cyber war with a Phantom Front

For people who do not follow financial markets, the ups and downs and machinations of the markets are pretty much ignored. You hear headlines like “The DOW is up 50 points.” Or “NASDAQ is up 10%.” Or There was a run on long term bonds. If they say its “up” people feel good. If they say its down, people feel negative.
Or any number of things like that. But if you do not have investments or read the Wall Street Journal, you do not pay a whole lot of attention.
Financial Markets can no longer be said to exist in a single location. There are Stock Exchanges all over the world in many major cities. But to be honest, with an online world there is little or no need for the actual locations – Tokyo, Honk Kong, Shanghai, , London, New York, Chicago – there is about 25 of them spread out across the different time zones.
Despite the locations, most of the trading goes on in cyberspace – online trading by brokers and individuals all over the world.
If you have been paying close attention to this story, you likely know a hell of a lot more about it than I do. Because I have honestly only been following the headlines. BUT FRANKLY – the headlines seem to be telling a HUGE story that the lamestream is just ignoring or covering up. So let me sum up.
1) Reddit group declares war on large fund managers and their practice of Shorting underperforming stocks. When the Fund Managers short Gamestop (causing the price to go down), members of the Reddit group go all in buying up the stock causing a run on the stock and the price goes through the roof. (I would call this something like the Movie Wallstreet and they pulled a “Blue Horseshoe Loves Gamestop”)
2) Gamestop stock goes artificially wild. Big Fund managers lose Billions of dollars. A bunch of kids make thousands in the process. AND they embarrass Wall Street.
3) BIG MONEY and BIG TECH attack back and shut down the App Robinhood – effectively shutting down the rogue guerrilla attack. Many of the Reddit Group members were using the Robinhood App to make their purchases.
4) BIG MEDIA joins the fight with the hit-piece story of the poor 20 year old boy who was allowed to trade options on Robinhood. Received a series of emails claiming he lost over $700,000. Tried to resolve, but Robinhood had no live customer service. Pimply 20 year old kills himself. Next day Robinhood emails him say it was all a mistake. Story broadcast all day Monday on EVERY News station. I heard the ladies on The Talk discussing it – and giving first hand accounts of using Robinhood and how they felt it was aggressive and untrustworthy.
5) BIG TECH make further moves to control or deplatform other Apps that might offer advantages
6) BIG GOVERNMENT gets involved, calling Financial types and Big Tech to come and testify in front of the Democrats in charge to figure out how all of them can “control” things better.
During the course of the run of the Gamestop stock, it began at about $6 (having been driven down by the large fund managers from about $20). It shot up into the 300’s. It settled between 50 and 80. And it is still wildly fluctuating. Thursday February 26 it rallied to about 180 before calming back down closer to 100. March 8 it pushed over 200 again. All for a stock that was pushed to the brink under 5 a month ago.
What everyone understands about this run is that is has nothing to do with the company Gamestop itself. They were being mismanaged and the business model was failing – a one year pandemic where gamers could not go buy stuff at stores nor had the money to do so was also part of that. When the financial markets decided to “cancel” Gamestop, the Reddit group  found a loophole and attacked. Was it the angst of a whole bunch of dorky unshowered  gamers fighting for their favorite store location to buy new games or Pokemon cards?
I think not. There is much more to it that that. The reaction of Big Finance was way too heavy handed for just a small battle. This is not a skirmish on the battlefield of WWIII. This is a campaign. And its a whole new battlefield with completely different weapons than we have ever seen.

Who are Some of the Players in This Global Kerfuffle?

I came across this version of the global power pyramid watching the movie Thrive. And for anyone who hasn’t seen it, its free so go watch it. It came out in 2012 or so and is still one of the best red pill movies out there.
And the red pill moment is when they point out where the global power structures really are. As you can imagine, all of us little guys are on the bottom – holding up the people above us.
In our little worlds, we might think that it is the Government that is on the top. We vote for them. We put them in power. They work for us . . . WRONG!
It is not the US vs China vs Russia. Governments are much smaller players than they may appear.
The people pulling the strings keep themselves firmly in the background. They have amassed fortunes that most cannot fathom. And they are in the background fighting with each other. Money controls everything. And control of the money making ventures. Energy. Pharmaceuticals. Credit.  And even these industries are having their strings pulled.
Its doubtful any of us know whose side we are really on when you hear about world events. Are we the good guys? The bad guys? Uninvolved?

So What Happen’s When David Hit’s Goliath Across the Forehead?

The message (or shot across the bow) that was sent to the financial markets is multifaceted. 1) People are wise to their market practices, 2) They have learned from Sun Tsu and know that war is fought with a single battle or on a single front.
This is more that two men on a battlefield. And the battle will be decided by a hell of a lot more than a single rock.

WHY is Trump Hotel Exploding National News?

“Donald Trump’s former hotel and casino in Atlantic City is set to be demolished on Wednesday, February 17, with the implosion live streaming across a number of platforms online.”

This was the byline from the story on MSN.com in regard to the Trump Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City that was set to torn down by implosion on Wednesday February 17th.

So I ask:

WHY IS THIS NATIONAL NEWS???

Please stand by and humor me for a few minutes while I explain. And then set forward a whole bunch of new questions for you to ask about the soul of our nation, our media and the world at large.

And I say it is National News because . . . it is. Our house has CBS news on pretty much all the time. They announced it all morning leading up to the “event.” In fact, they had announcements throughout the weekend as well as on their National “News-Magazine” program The Early show with Gail King (Opera’s best friend and Wildly woke Democrat).

They then had the dramatic “Breaking News” banner and music going when they switched out to it, preempting the exciting and woke Drew Barrymore show. And for 10 minutes showed the live implosion.

That was one channel. It was on all of them, plus being livestreamed all over the internet.

And did you realize (remember) that the mayor of Atlantic City had actually tried to auction off the “privilege” of pushing the button to blow up the building.

SO . . . Why all the excitement to blow up a building?????

BECAUSE IT WAS NAMED TRUMP

Now blowing up buildings is an art form. How do you actually implode a building to destroy it quickly and cause no damage to surrounding buildings? It takes a lot of engineering and some serious explosives experts.

And it looks really cool to see it all falling down.

But the interest in this implosion is due to 1 factor.

The Trump Factor.

Let’s Face it. Hating Trump is an industry nowadays. And its so much more than an historic second petty impeachment within a year! The impeachment was just the rotten whipped cream on top of a Turd sundae brought to you by the American Left.

And since we are here, let’s go through a short (haha) list of some of the shit-spaghetti that they have thrown against the wall over the past 5 years waiting to see if it would stick to him:

Sexist,Misogynist – From the “Grab em by the pussy” Hot Mike comment made to Billy Bush

Bigamist – Stormy Daniels

Lying, Cheating Scumbag – Marla Maples, then Melania – If you read the Tabloids there are probably lots more.

Racist – The horribly misquoted Charlotte speech finally played in full at the impeachment hearing.

Financial Failure – 5 years trying to obtain his tax records to prove it.

Treasonous Cheater – Remember the Steele Dossier, The Trump Russia affair that was completely debunked after over $30 million investigation

Pervert/Racist – Remember the Steele Dossier claiming that he had Russian Hookers Pee on a bed he thought BHO had slept in.

They have done EVERYTHING in their power to debase, degrade and defame Donald Trump in as out loud and public a way as possible.

Consider these:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There was no bottom of the low that they could or would go.

So Blowing up Trump

I see the blowing up of the Trump Casino as simply another level of how the mainstream can show contempt for the name of Trump.

Did they tell the story of why this casino failed? Why pretty much all of the Casino industry in Atlantic City has failed?

The economic ending of Atlantic City is all pretty simple.

FIRST – Other states Legalized gambling. Previously you could only legally gamble in Atlantic City and Las Vegas. So people would make pilgrimages to Atlantic City. New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Virginia, Maryland. Busses and cars would stream in for weekday and weekend specials all year round. When Pennsylvania legalized casinos and slot machines, why make the 2 hour trip? Huge amounts of money were no longer streaming into the New Jersey shore.

SECOND – The 2008-2016 Recession. Nobody had money to spend on entertainment.

A recession is a recession. But no one expected the Bush crash to be 9 years where people were under employed, prices were out of this world and people had no money.

By 2009 Trump’s casino holdings were all bankrupt. The casinos were sold to other people and entities. But retained the Trump name – which itself held value.

Fast forward to now. The only part of this casino that has anything to do with Donald Trump is the name on the side of the building.

One of the few “honest” portrayals of the story was in the UK – in The Sun. They depicted the exploding building next to a picture or Hilary Clinton and headlined how she was gloating over it.

Why Pay Attention to This?

This is one of many examples of Public bias that we are facing here in the US. The bias is NOT ORGANIC. It is 100% manufactured. This is part of the ongoing campaign to manipulate opinion.

It began when Trump won the election in 2016. The entire establishment sought ways to take him down. And when they could not attack his record in office, it had to go personal.

And this would never work if it was being done by a simple political faction. It was not just the Democrats. It was the entire left and all their allies.

By looking at this one story, you can begin to see how deep the cesspool goes. Keep asking why and follow the people involved. I will be.

24 – 9 – Compete to Achieve More

I do not consider myself a “competitive” person. And what I mean by that is that I am not the sort of person who is constantly trying to out-do everyone else. If I am in “competition” with anyone else, it is usually myself and the standards I set for myself.

If you think about it (or if I think about it), much of what we learn growing up is about competition and how to deal with it. We start at a young age playing games on the playground. They progress to competitive sports and then competition in school and in life. Consider my life’s example:

On the playground at school

  • Kickball
  • Prison ball
  • Dodgeball
  • Kill the guy with the ball

Organized sports

  • Baseball

Organized sports I never played

  • Football
  • Soccer
  • Basketball
  • Hockey

In high school I swam, played water polo and pole vaulted.

And this does not get into all the other sports and games that we may have been introduced to that I never played.

I cannot say I really started being “competitive” in sports until I began bike racing. It began when I was about 23 or 24 – as I was quitting smoking cigarettes. I found myself needing to find new hobbies. These were things to do with my time to not think about wanting a cigarette. It also helped because I gained 15 lbs. and felt fat all the time. So, I began riding.

Bike riding was not my only pass time. I also golfed a lot. I tended more toward cycling as it did not cost my $50 every time I went out. This was also around the time I relocated to Pennsylvania from California. And Eastern Pennsylvania proved to be a great place to cycle. Lots of back roads and hills and different places to see. Plus, I got involved with a club – which led to racing.

I was involved in racing for about 4 years. And while I was never all that great, I found that the competition – against myself, against the Hills and against other riders helped me in so many ways.

It taught me to set goals. Some were training goals. Or weight goals. Or race placement goals. I had to think in advance and plan out how to do it. It taught me about honing the metal of your soul. What were my physical limitations? How do I get past them?

I soon realized that that was not a mountain that I could not get over. They could not physically defeat me. I might go slow. But I would get to the top. And this is a freeing feeling.

I just recently read a book. Yes, it was science fiction and what happened could not have happened. But the point it made was important. The main character could switch between bodies. He was in the middle of a battle. And switched to another body to retreat. He began running as fast as he could. He noticed that the body he had taken was not as strong as the one he grew up in. But he had no fear that he would be overcome with exhaustion. That endurance was more a mental thing. You had to be able to steal you mind into getting your body to do what you want it to do. Physical limitations be damned.

And it is this lesson that I have found most important about competition. It is a mindset. It is fixing a result in your mind and using your resources to get there.

When I was about 15, I hiked to the top of Half Dome in Yosemite. We finished in about 8 hours and were exhausted. But we did it. A few years later, my mother and sister decided to make the trek. My sister was probably about the same age I had been. But my Mom was 52 or 53. They set the goal. They got conditioned. And they got to the top of Half Dome as well. They did not make it down the mountain until after dark (more like 11 to 12 hours). But the task was accomplished.

This mindset can help you to get anywhere you choose.
