The Big Club are massive and complex networks of lobbying groups who actually write legislation. 

 

Within The BIG CLUB there are, essentially, two larger factions with interest: Big Labor and Wall Street (big crony-business).  There are other factions like Big Green (Al Gore) etc. However, for the sake of ObamaCare the two that matter are “Big Labor” (AFL-CIO, SEIU, AFSCME, UFCW etc), and Wall Street (U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Tom Donohue).

 

The Big Club has paid for ObamaCare’s construct, and they are not going to allow their sales force to walk away from it.  From their position, this is a massive ‘multi-multi-hundreds-of-millions’ expenditure that has already taken place.

 

The Chamber of Commerce already lost hundreds of millions when TPP was lost due to Donald Trump.   The TPP loss followed the loss of Comprehensive Immigration Reform (2014 Dave Brat), and the loss of Common Core Education standards.

 

Wall Street/Chamber of Commerce spent hundreds of millions on Gang of Eight, Common Core, TPP and ObamaCare.

 

Having lost TPP, Go8 and Common Core, there is no way Wall Street is going to accept losing his biggest investment to date, ObamaCare.

Anybody remember the president who "accidentally" found hundreds of his opponents' classified FBI files on his desk?

 

Remember the gal, Catherine Austin Fitts, who worked for two administrations,  who talks about the "control files" held by the "Big Club"?

The UniParty have three unwavering primary objectives as purchased by the lobbying groups:

 

1) Retention of Obamacare;

 

2) Budgetary spending to retain growth of government; and

 

3) comprehensive immigration reform to include amnesty.

 

President Trump has requested the following: 

 

  • A budget with actual baseline reductions in spending.  Where Trump’s cabinet, individually and collectively, will actually reduce scale, scope and reach of federal government.
  • Healthcare reform to include the elimination of ObamaCare and a return to free market principles to drive down the cost of insurance products.
  • Funding to enhance enforcement of existing immigration law and a border wall to ensure the long-term reductions in the ease of illegal, unauthorized migration.

No surprise that Ruling Class Shill John McCain voted to save Obamacare. As predicted above, the Republican Establishment will not let Obamacare be repealed.

 

 “Since its enactment, Obamacare has been full of empty promises that have only made our nation’s health-care problems worse. I hear from Arizonans every day who have been saddled by rising premiums, increased health-care costs, and reduced access to doctors and hospitals.” McCain in 2016

NAFTA -  U.S. Chamber of Commerce President Tom Donohue is now engaged in a direct fight with U.S. President Donald Trump. Tom Donohue is now specifically aligning himself with Canada and Mexico against the interests of the United States economy. 

 

Tom Donohue gives hundreds of millions to the crony UniParty capitalists that infect Washington DC.  Donohue owns the majority of U.S. politicians.  This battle will be epic.

 

There are massive international corporate and financial interests who are inherently at risk from President Trump’s “America-First” economic and trade platform. 

 

The biggest lie in modern economics, willingly spread and maintained by corporate media, is that a system of global markets still exists.

It doesn’t.

 

Every element of global economic trade is controlled and exploited by massive institutions, multinational banks and multinational corporations.

Saudi Corruption Purge Snares $33 Billion of Net Worth 

 

In the U.S., entities will be severely hurt because the Saudis arrested were financing corrupt political operations in Washington DC.  The impacted list includes: 

 

Left-wing ideological media companies, including social media outfits, and some Machiavellian media groups like Fox News and the Wall Street Journal.  They too were funded by, or partly owned by, participants and influence agents within the Saudi group that was arrested.

 

Billionaire globalist, and “Mr. Wall Street”,  Rupert Murdoch.

 

Any State Department entity that supported the Muslim Brotherhood and its various affiliated enterprises.  Including CAIR and more than a dozen NGO’s (Non Governmental Organizations).

 

Dozens of K-Street offices.  The lobbyist industry writ large has just lost a major source of funding and influence money.

Wells Fargo Banker Pleads Guilty To Helping Launder Millions For Sinaloa Cartel  

 

Drug money would be picked up by cash couriers - often stuffed into "shopping bags, duffel bags or shoeboxes," after which it would be deposited at Wells Fargo and other banks. Couriers traveled to Los Angeles, Chicago, Charlotte, Boston, New Jersey, and New York City to pick up drug money into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, picking up the money in private residences or public places such as parking lots or retail stores. 

 
The couriers would deposit the bulk cash in $22,000 - $45,000 increments at various banks used for laundering, including Wells Fargo, after which funds were transferred into Mexico-based shell corporations operated by the launderers - which would then be transferred to the Sinaloa Cartel.
