Speaking of Napoleon, I recently got a British token ca. 1814 commemorating Napoleon's (first) abdication - the reverse has Napoleon's titles, with the sarcastic legend "We Conquer to Set Free", the obverse has the Devil leading Napoleon away on an ass to Elba with the legend "Inseperable Friends." It's a pretty cool little piece of Napoleonic history

Compare and contrast the mighty General, in control of everything, verses the hunched over, shivering General, on a mule, being lead. Compare the faces, especially.

Give the DOW an hour and see where it is ... but there will be a big relief rally at some point, and then if it falls quickly ... what will the fed do? change the rates, do more QE like they did to save Obama? Or like they did in 2016 when they cancelled rate hikes when the market turned (to help Hillary?).
Markets seem like a bubble, but raising rates right before the election makes it seem like these BigMoney Fed guys are really globalists that love them Dems and the BigGov option. They screwed a lot of people with their ZIRP and QE policy ... pushed mega-wealth for the richest.

As much as I hate Obama and the Fed's actions, I don't actually think the Fed was working for Obama - they were working for the banks. ZIRP and QE were disasters for average Americans (and Eurpopeans and Japanese), but not for Obama's benefit. And the Fed isn't raising rates to punish Trump either - they telegraphed their rate hikes and eventual QE wind-down hard starting before the election when QE went into maintenance (but not growth). They would be taking the same actions if Hillary were in office (though she might fight them on it whereas Trump has not, but who knows - it didn't happen).
The Fed cannot do more QE or lower rates without losing legitimacy. That doesn't mean they won't do it, but I think it's unlikely. They have been following their process as advertised and it has been very (almost excruciatingly) slow. Rates are *still* accommodative - just less so than before. QE reversal is going exactly on schedule. This crap they pulled back in 08-12 has to be wound down, and with inflation ticking up and growth starting, they basically have to do it now.
This is why you shouldn't interfere in the first place. All the sticksaves eventually have to be handled it spreads the pain out over a *much* longer period of time. But they did choose to interfere, and so here we are. I don't think this is a political action, it is market realities finally forcing action. Interest rates have to come up, and they are. This has consequences on equities because now the calculus has changed - the ~1.8% dividend yield on the S&P500 suddenly looks much less attractive when a six month T-bill will yield you about 2.3%. The six-month yield is finally beating official inflation for the first time in nearly a decade.
It ain't gonna be fun, but it's gotta be done. The stock market is going to take a beating or, optimistically, move sideways for a few years.

It could've been a lot worse for us. I heard from a sheriff's deputy checking our sticker on the way back that they still have minimal communication with Bay County and that there's no cell service, electricity or running water in most areas over there.
Pray for my college friend and retired Air Force C-130 pilot that they made it through the storm. We both got our masters at 'Bama, our wives became friends and we had a blast, paid for by Uncle Sam in his desire to get us masters degrees.
I still haven't heard from him, but considering that cell service is down, I'm not surprised. I might load up the truck with my chainsaws, some bottled water, other supplies, some beer in another cooler and see if I can follow the Scout law and do several good turns daily and hopefully track him down.

I have to agree with that, because the Fed has ALWAYS worked for the Big Banks, right from the day it was founded. It's always been debatable whether Goldman Sachs should be considered to be a privatized arm of the Fed, or whether the Fed should be considered to be the Public arm of Goldman Sachs. I incline towards the latter view.

Also I don't know enough about Napoleon. He looks as if he just got his ass kicked in the Levant because you wouldn't cross the Alps after getting your ass kicked in Russia.
Why did they keep letting him get his ass kicked?
This is an amazing painting when you emzoomen it, but it's a painting of a nasty little bitch. Delaroche should have drawn flowers or nice people or nekkid girls.

Yes, to the British after Waterloo in 1815. He (correctly) assumed that the Brits wouldn't execute him & desecrate his corpse like all the other European powers wanted to, but thought that they'd let him live in a nice retirement in England, or let him live in exile in America. Instead they shipped him to one of the most remote islands on Earth, St. Helena.

yeah, they are for the International Banks, but that means they are for Obama/Clinton .. or even Bush. Even Trump has a bunch of GoldmanSachs guys, but he seems to want to bend things back to serve the average American, not the globalist printers/lenders of money. Right now the Fed serves the markets, serves those highly leveraged.
In 2016 they had announceed four rates cuts coming, the market sold off (11% iirc) and they cancelled ALL the rate cuts. They wanted Hillary ... This Warsh guy was in contention (somewhat) for the Fed chair but he thought they should have ended (reversed) the QEs in 2010 ... instead (tea party days) they kept pushing markets to save it from the Obama oppressive policy ...
so while they are doing it for the BigBanks, they prefer the Dems or GOPe globalists ... they are political.
this is really good on the fed ... interview with Warsh

I'm not a Christian, but ditto for me. Whether or not Trump is devout is beside the point.

It's pretty much the same reason that the great Persian founder Cyrus the Great was the only man that classical Judaism ever proclaimed to be a "Messiah" to the Jews, even though he was never an adherent to their faith.

This is why Trump is so very dangerous. By going whole-hog on identity politics, the Dems acquired gigantic monolithic minority voting blocs. They now utterly depend on them. To defeat the terms, the Rs don't need to flip the minority voting blocs - they just need to slice them a bit. Slicing off 15% may well do it. The Dem voter alliance is extremely fragile.

The most important thing to keep in mind is that when the left poses such questions, it's a con, it's being done disingenuously. They want to dupe high minded evangelicals into sitting out elections, voluntarily ceding power to those who would harm them (and their families and communities). Which is ridiculous. Even if you want to base your vote on the personal lives of the candidates, if you look at the personal ethics of Trump vs Hillary, Trump comes out far ahead.

The thing is, Boney rarely got his ass kicked. He essentially ran roughshod over Europe for nearly 20 years, kicking the shit out of everyone.
But when he actually DID get his ass kicked, he did it by the numbers, with flaming jackboots and boa feathers in a day-glo orange propeller beanie. Usually because of overreach outside of his home ground in Europe (Egypt and Russia as the most prominent examples).

Lindy's passion isn't the problem. It's that he's wrong about basic facts about weapons, tactics and history.
If you don't know anything about what he's talking about, say crossbows, then Lindy can be entertaining, I suppose. But once he starts talking bullshit about stuff I do know about, I lose all respect for everything he does.

Interesting that a lot of Civil War officers took photos with their hand inside their uniform.
I'm wondering if there was an element of Napoleon-love going on there. There was quite the cult of Napoleonic maneuver battle going on in the US Army for decades after Boney's fall.
Something like the way virtually every military on earth adopted the pickelhaube helmet in dress uniform for about 15-20 years after the Franco-Prussian war. It even had a brief stint in the US Army in the mid-1870s for parade uniforms.

The decision to move forward on 9th Circuit nominees without consultation or responding to my acceptance of the White House's offer reflects President Trump's desire to stack the court. I expect my blue slips to be honored as I was acting in good faith.
Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks, Tyrannosaur Wrangler at October 12, 2018 11:05 AM (+y/Ru)
I expect Diane Feinstein to shut up. The 9th circuit has created more grief for all of the country . Their out of bounds rulings creating their own version of immigration, gun control, and the extra constitutional blocking of executive branch action means they either need to be removed or reformed. Trump is reforming it back to a constitutionally bound court which the Democrats cannot abide. As it interferes with their fatwahs they have courts decree when they can't get something through legislatively.

What does it mean that he was "establishment"? It worries me that he was appointed by Dubya, worked for Kagan, etc. Of course that is cause for concern (Roberts *barf*). Still maybe he was just gaming the system, doing a reverse "long march". Looking through the summary of his judgments on wikipedia, he seems pretty conservative. I guess I am cautiously optimistic as well.

I'm wondering if there was an element of Napoleon-love going on there. There was quite the cult of Napoleonic maneuver battle going on in the US Army for decades after Boney's fall.
Something like the way virtually every military on earth adopted the pickelhaube helmet in dress uniform for about 15-20 years after the Franco-Prussian war. It even had a brief stint in the US Army in the mid-1870s for parade uniforms.

I saw somewhere it was supposed to represent calm, level-headed leadership or something like that. So it wasn't strictly a Napoleon thing, though it did get associated with him because it was used so often in depictions of him.

Oddly enough, this is one of the little secrets of the Trump presidency that the left hasn't really commented on much. They have been so busy running around with their hair on fire yelling Russia and Nazi and Racist they they aren't apparently seeing him rebuild the most radical and leftist courts in the land. Or shrink the size of the executive branch. Or rebuild trade agreements with every nation, favoring the US more. Or stabilizing the world's radical governments.
He's doing serious presidenting work and getting it done fast and efficiently while they are acting like they're ripped on bath salts.

I don't expect that Kanye will pull huge numbers of Black Americans over to Trump all by himself. But I think his real value is to show that a truly free man will consider all sides and not make knee-jerk decisions because of promises of free goodies from a political party that takes them for granted.
In a way, he has the potential to do more good for Black America than WEB DuBois, the Black Panthers and the NAACP combined.
Funny thing, that's REALLY hard for me to say, since I largely despise hip-hop, rap and the culture that it created.
