Loading ...Thank you for your response and your ‘take’ on the situation in Greece and the EU. It is good to have an opinion outside the US Media on things. I pray that the people can overthrow these Globalist Elites. And with the help of other leaders in other countries, I think we have a chance.
Thanks again, Farmboy
Re Greece
not fully up to speed on Greece, as I regard it as just a matter of time before it falls out of either EU or Euro, or both.
Also timing here is a bit suspect…ie why now when all sentient beings know they are bust and can never repay their debts etc…..why not last month or next month.
What is certain, is that the head honcho’s in Brussels, the ones who really trough it, are crapping themselves that Trump will send Malloch over, as the one thing they have almost succeeded in, is never letting anyone tell the truth or speak common sense, without managing to label them as extremist or lunatics etc…..Farage, Wilders etc. Mallochs thinking and comments are liken garlic to a vampire.
There already is a concerted effort to demonise the Donald, coming out of the EU, expect it to get way worse, as now we have left, they know the end times have started. Where they go from swanning around in private jets,staying in 7 star hotel suites, full of hot and cold hookers, or eager young girls straight out of one of their universitys, while scoffing 5 star Michelin food, washed down with lakes of the finest wines, to failing in interviews for junior dunny attendants !!!!!!
That whole lake will come tumbling down the spillway and the whole thing will erode so fast the Dam will be irrelevant …Typical Democrats trying to explain away with words like “rigorous inspections” …word processors all of them…
It cant be fixed during a rainey period …idiots….”The roof needs fixin when it rains and when it dont rain,it dont need fixin “while its rainin you cant fix it ! so it dont get fixed…is their mentality ! simpletons ! Whats needed is criminal Liability for the Politicians involved .
The Spillway was not constructed right and they were told 12 years ago it might fail while under the conditions that it was supposed to prevent …Plan B was never a real PLAN ! It was a sham…
is what happens when all politicians care about is the next election and emotional things that get peoples attention while they ignore engineering problems that dont get any voter attention until they fail ! Then they look for someone to blame ,a scrapegoat ..”Trump didnt give us any money” will be their answer ! Keep electing on emotional issues and you will get emotional answers like a failed Dam that suddenly sends a wall of water 30 feet high toward you and you will get really emotional for a short time and then it’ll be over real quick !
You will get what you deserve! Every people get the Government they deserve ! Machiavelli was right !
“But the talk has now stepped up a notch with the Bundesbank confirming Thursday that it has already moved 583 tons of gold out of New York and Paris. Its plan to hold half its gold in Frankfurt is now three years ahead of schedule.”

Comment: Germany’s got theirs, what about you?
The UP Gold train is led by the unusual DD40X… essentially two locomotives on a single extended frame. Each of two diesel & genset pairs drive four motor axles on each truck. UP loved to experiment with high power locomotives for speed across the plains, and power to get over the great divide.

Joy Villa’s album sales have now gone off the charts. Maybe she starts a trend?
@ Buygold: From what I observe the corrupt tentacles go far beyond the judiciary. We’ve endured eight years of executive evil in an attempt to destroy our country and legislative inertia towards the populace while engaging in illegitimate private gain…while the three branches of government have all but overthrown the Constitution.
I totally agree with you that it is now or never…we had better cover Trump’s back in whatever way we deem necessary…as one Gemini to another. 🙂
@ Farmboy: Glad you enjoyed Catherine Austin Fitts. I think she is the most intelligent woman in America and wish she had Trump’s ear.
Moggy and Buygold, enjoyed the posts about current events. The media so quiet on these things.
Goldcountry and Goldi, thanks for your updates on the California situation. TV news here just glossing over the story.
Thanks to ??? that posted the Catherine Austin Fitts interview. A great look inside the Washington Machine. And fits my theory that Trump needs to sooner than later take off his ‘play nice’ boxing gloves, and start kicking some arse. Appreciate his effort to reach out, be a President for all, but the sooner he tackles the swamp, the better off we all will be.
Once again, the Oasis proves to be the ‘go to place’ for monitoring the important news. Thanks!
Oh yeah, Ps) you got it right, I am the younger, better looking one. 🙂 And don’t ya think Buygold over does the makeup ??
Germany ‘freaked out’ as Greece ‘could ditch EU currency for US DOLLAR’
I have repaired hundreds of dams including ones like Oroville, which were in the process of failure. I know a lot about dams.
The spillway failure is a common type of failure, where phreatic, or surface water entered the spillway, migrating beneath the slabs. (A static element on a dynamic element, A hard element on a live element). The dam is hydrated and dehydrated as water levels rise and fall, moving, as soils swell from pressures and water mass. In times of high rain the phreatic surface (hydrated soils line) moves toward the surface, venting into the void so produced.
This creates a void. Moving water over the years has eroded soils from beneath the slab downstream and left a channel. Now, the spillway has been actuated in a high-flow event and the plates of the spillway have failed into the stream, scouring from beneath them. They will continue to fail as the water continues to flow. The hydraulic jump exacerbates this erosion.
If the flow continues for a long enough time, with sufficient velocity, the reservoir will be voided by the migration of the erosion to the pool (cut-back). I cannot tell if failure is imminent, from Ohio, but it is an unacceptable situation that has been allowed to develop. It is a case of pennies pinched producing dollars spent, perhaps tragedy.
What we can learn as a nation is the information that is being disseminated. Words chosen carefully, to not excite, to not scare. The issue, as it now stands is serious, life-threatening even. The officials, the owners reps, the media will tell us now, that there is nothing to be be frightened about – all under control (remember Katrina??).

Jim Stone is now predicting the spillway will fail within a week:
“1. They cannot get trucks into the emergency spillway area to repair it, because the road is gone.
2. There is a huge ravine that may look small in the photos, but it is very large that has eaten its way to within about 10 feet of the emergency spillway. It is at least as deep as the hole in the road photo above, which also looks insignificant in wide area photos because this disaster is so big it cannot be shown in a photo.
They are trying to fill the holes with helicopters, but I do not believe that will work with holes that big. If the dam overtops the emergency spillway again, it will fail, period. The only way they would have a chance is if they could get a huge line of cement trucks in there, and they clearly cannot because the road is gone. And how many truckloads of cement would it take to patch even the first hole, which cut the road in half, and is washed out for at least a thousand feet with similar ravines and erosion? That is not even the big hole in the photo above, it is only the one that starts the cut in the road.
3. The main spillway continues to get eaten. In my opinion they are not letting enough water out of it. They need to simply let it rip at the full 250,000 cfs it is rated for and hold onto their pants and pray the whole mountain does not give out, or that the entire spillway system including the gates is not ripped out from it after being so badly damaged. What else can they do? Clearly, the emergency spillway is death upon next use, so they had better do everything possible to avoid using it.
4. Every other dam in California’s system is filled to capacity, and spring runoff has not even started. Levee failures are already happening due to all the dams at high outflow and the fact that communists in California’s government gave $25 billion to illegals, while they let California’s water infrastructure rot with far less than $1 billion. Good solid snowflake logic there. And the “snowflakes” in the mountains are going to do a nice job of re-enforcing the outcome of that logic this spring.
MY CONCLUSION: Lake Tulare, an enormous 600 square mile inland sea that was once in the San Joaquin valley is coming back this year, and the city of Tulare is GONE.
Oroville alone would fill lake Tulare, but is not well positioned to do it. It will take other problems to cause that, which will probably happen.”
Everything you said was so true! Unfortunately we’ve allowed the judiciary in this country to rule the roost. Lincoln wanted to arrest a Supreme Court judge for ruling against the Constitution. FDR, the same.
These judges are nothing but human beings, sometimes good and sometimes bad with an opinion – too often their opinion and personal feelings about issues overturn written laws.
“What ever happened to the old days when the outraged people used to march on the jails, remove the criminals, and visit the hanging tree? If I were one of the parents of those molested children I wouldn’t be sitting in my home waiting for an attorney to set these s.o.b.s free…especially since for a brief time I worked for an attorney who handled criminal cases…a criminal attorney, if you will…and watched how he used his brains to get his guilty clients off…which is why my employment with him was brief.”
Such a great statement! I don’t know, but I believe as a people we have been so brainwashed as to believe that we should be afraid of challenging so-called authority. That the “all seeing eye” of government will catch and punish us severely – that we have no chance or choice.
Think about the amount of TV Shows that show how Law Enforcement “always gets their man”. Absolute and complete B.S.
The “outraged people” you speak of need to become outraged again and forget about fear of prosecution by a corrupt legal system that defends the crooks and prosecutes based on belief and opinion.
Trump stood up for us and the truth IMHO. If we don’t stand up for him and back him up, there will be no second chances, clearly the Republicans don’t have his back. The onslaught of media attacks have those weak, corrupt POS politicians on the run.
Now or never IMHO

At another time, a young and brilliant lawyer was sent to the local jail to interview a prospective client who had manhandled a little girl. He came back in a rage, went to the head honcho screaming that he would quit before he would represent the pig. Unfortunately, this country doesn’t have nearly enough attorneys with such moral courage.
Definitely it is past time for folks to stand up and protect all children.
And just for the record, you’re the camo face on the right and Farmboy on the left?
He looks like the younger one…
Rolling on a Feather River…
Like when Reagan got in, domestic welfare to workfare they called it. This time its global blood suckers that can’t let to of the USA teat. The cry babies aren’t even losing anything yet. Lets not forget the DOMESTIC and corporate tax pigs either.
They intend to use the courts to tie up anything Trump does, even if it’s pre-emptive like this. How long will “we the people” put up with this crap?
Seems like some of us “working folk” need to take some time off and form some “correction squads”. Seems to me some behavior needs to be “corrected” not just with those illegal criminals that need to be executed, but with these paid, disrupting protesters and MSM personalities.
I suppose we could move to the legal system and Congress critters next.
Can you imagine the outrage if Obozo and Democraps had been treated the way Trump and his team have been?
I have had quite enough thank you very much…
