US Official Contradicts Biden on Illegal Immigrant Surge in Court Filing

April 13, 2021

A top official from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in charge of caring for unaccompanied immigrant children (UC) has described the surge of illegal border crossings as “unprecedented,”while adding that the temporary shelters that have been opened are providing “a crisis standard of care” to the minors.

Cindy Huang, director of HHS’s Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), made the comments in a sworn declaration to a federal court judge in a case related to the 1997 Flores settlement agreement, which sets the principles and guidelines for the care, custody, and release of immigrant children under federal custody.

In her testimony, Huang characterized the ongoing surge of illegal immigrants at the U.S. southern border, particularly a surge in unaccompanied minors, as “historic” and “unprecedented,” while telling the federal judge that she believes the influx is likely to increase in the “coming weeks and months.”...

Nancy Pelosi Turns on AOC, The Squad

https://resistthemainstream.org/nancy-pelosi-turns-on-the-squad-aoc/?utm_source=thetrumpist&utm_medium=thetrumpist&utm_campaign=thetrumpist

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) took a swipe at Democratic progressives, including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Pelosi reportedly bashes members of “the Squad” in a new biography by USA Today Washington bureau chief Susan Page.

Pelosi spoke ten separate times with Page for the book, scheduled for release April 20. During the interviews, Pelosi took shots at several prominent members of her own party including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts, and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan. She mocks Ocasio-Cortez specifically for her youth and apparent ignorance, according to Axios...

Pelosi unloads on the Squad, at one point adopting a child-like voice when discussing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and offers the Squad this blunt advice: “You’re not a one-person show. This is the Congress of the United States.”

During another part in her series of interviews with Page, Pelosi blames former President Barack Obama over problems whipping votes in favor of the Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare, from lawmakers representing Obama’s home state of Illinois.

I want to stress the diff between neuroedgenerative disease and mutation

nd disease is programed in genes, in a persons dna, whereas mutation is caused by some imbalance in chemistry, while the resulting symptoms might be the same the cause if very diff

either you are programmed for cancer or you aren't, somewhere along the way there might be a chemistry imbalance that causes a mutation but there are also genes to prevent this from overwhelming, if you have the gene to stop to it as well

if mRNA vax is an intro to change DNA there is a problem, if mRNA intro is meant to overwhelm the system of genes to stop mutation there is a problem

prion disease is genetic

Austin: US adds 500 troops in Germany, despite Trump pledge

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin announced on Tuesday that he is expanding the U.S. military presence in Germany by 500 troops and has stopped planning for large-scale troop cuts ordered by the Trump administration. “This planned increase in U.S. personnel underscores our commitment to Germany and the entire NATO alliance,” Austin said in a notable counterpoint to the Trump administration’s repeated complaints that Germany is a weak partner on defense and security. Austin made the announcement after talks with German Defense Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer on his first tour of Europe since becoming Pentagon chief in January.

U.S. consumer prices increase solidly in March

U.S. consumer prices increased by the most in more than 8-1/2 years in March and underlying inflation picked up as more parts of the economy reopened thanks to increased vaccinations and massive fiscal stimulus. The consumer price index jumped 0.6% last month, the largest gain August 2012, after rising 0.4% in February, the Labor Department said on Tuesday. Excluding the volatile food and energy components, the CPI rose 0.3%. The so-called core CPI nudged up 0.1% in February.

Economists polled by Reuters had forecast the overall CPI advancing 0.5% and the core CPI climbing 0.2%.

Nomura Tightens Leverage For Some Hedge Funds Clients As ECB Starts Asking Questions

One day after Credit Suisse traders realized that they may be the biggest losers from the Archegos debacle following reports that banker bonuses at the Swiss bank will be slashed by "hundreds of millions of dollars", another bank is about to feel the pinch amid the ongoing prime broker crackdown (especially among those prime brokers - like Nomura and Credit Suisse - who lost billions during the Archegos margin call).

According to Bloomberg, Japan's Nomura Holdings is beginning to tighten financing for some hedge fund clients following the Archegos Capital Management fiasco that may cost Japan’s biggest brokerage an estimated $2 billion. The restrictions include tightening leverage for some clients previously granted exceptions to margin financing limits, a Bloomberg source said. As we discussed last week, the (long overdue) crackdown on prime broker leverage abuse by preferential, i.e., high paying, clients will result in widespread delevearging by hedge funds and family offices, many of whom may have had similar generous Total Return Swap terms as Archegos which allowed the $15BN fund to have $100BN in exposure thanks to 8x leverage.

Desperate to close the barn door long after the horse has escaped, Nomura is seeking to reduce risk at its prime brokerage unit in the wake of the Archegos collapse that may result in combined losses of $10 billion for global banks. Credit Suisse has also been tightening financing terms for hedge funds and family offices, in a potential revamp of new industry practices after the blowup. The Swiss bank is also planning a sweeping overhaul of the hedge fund business at the center of the incident. Its involvement in the Archegos debacle took Wall Street by surprise as it is very much out of character for the otherwise conservative Japanese bank. Under Kentaro Okuda, who became chief executive officer last April, Nomura’s net income reached a 19-year high for the nine months ended in December, driven by a boom in trading and investment banking at home and overseas. The brokerage said in late March that it had an estimated $2 billion claim against a U.S. client, which Bloomberg identified as Archegos.

Meanwhile, even as Wall Street appears to have moved on from the Archegos episode, some are worried that there will be more than one cockroach. Enter the ECB. As Bloomberg reports separately, Europe’s top financial watchdog has asked some of the bloc’s largest banks for additional information on their exposure to hedge funds after the recent collapse of Archegos Capital Management. “There is a need to scrutinize the reasons why the banks enabled the fund to leverage up to such an extent,” ECB executive board member Isabel Schnabel said in an interview with Der Spiegel last week. “It is a warning signal that there are considerable systemic risks that need to be better regulated.”

The checks by the European Central Bank on lenders such as Deutsche Bank and BNP Paribas are said to be standard practice after such a disruptive event for the industry, although it may not be "standard" what they reveal.

Austria follows Italy as governments resume ultra-long issuance

Austria moved on Tuesday to lock in current low borrowing costs with a 50-year bond, hot on the heels of a half-century issue from Italy, while Spain launched 15-year paper. Both deals were placed via bank syndicates, with Austria set to raise 1.75 billion euros and Spain six billion euros, according to lead manager memos seen by Reuters. The Austrian bond and last week’s Italian issue mark a resumption in ultra long-dated, 50-year issuance.

After a strong start to the year with 50-year sales from France, Spain and Belgium, a bond sell-off driven by expectations of higher growth and inflation saddled buyers of those bonds with losses and such issuance died down. “European investors are still hanging on to the lower-for-longer narrative and therefore there is no fear on their part of buying very long-dated bonds because there is no fear of a regime change in the growth and inflation dynamics,” said Antoine Bouvet, senior rates strategist at ING. “It is true that rates have moved higher, but in the grand scheme of things they are still fairly low.”

The European Central Bank has calmed markets by increasing the pace of its asset purchases. Ultra-long dated bonds are seen among the riskiest debt governments issue, as they are more sensitive to a change in underlying interest rates. Also, the ECB, which pins down euro area borrowing costs, does not buy bonds longer than 30 years. Austria saw lower demand than the nearly 18 billion euros its 100-year bond enjoyed last year, while Spain’s books shrank to 42 billion euros after it cut the yield on offer.

That’s well below the 65 billion euros in bids Madrid received for a 50-year deal in February and 18 billion euros for Austria’s 100-year bond last year. Bouvet said lower demand may be down to this year’s broad rise in yields which means investors such as pension funds have less need to buy long-dated bonds. Some governments are also trying to weed out bidders they believe to be submitting inflated orders Euro area bond yields barely moved on data showing U.S. inflation rose 2.6% year-on-year in March, marginally above forecasts. But heavy supply pressured markets, with Germany’s 10-year yield at a nearly a two-week high at -0.271% and Italy’s 10-year yields at their highest in over a month at 0.78%.

Investors were also digesting bond supply from the Netherlands, Italy, Britain and a $24 billion sale of 30-year U.S bonds, all sold at auction.

Russia Warns US Warships To Stay Far Away From Crimea "For Their Own Good"

At a moment the United States appears poised to send its warships near Ukraine as a strong 'deterrent message' against Russian forces built up near the east Ukrainian border, Russia on Tuesday warned that US vessels better stay away from Crimea "for their own good". A Kremlin statement further called the new US deployment into the Black Sea a serious "provocation" which serves no other purpose but to test Russia's "strength" and "nerves".

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov issued the Tuesday warning as follows: "There is absolutely nothing for American ships to be doing near our shores, this is purely a provocative action. Provocative in the direct sense of the word: they are testing our strength, playing on our nerves. They will not succeed." "We warn the United States that it will be better for them to stay far away from Crimea and our Black Sea coast. It will be for their own good," he added.

It was late last week that Turkey's foreign ministry confirmed that it's granted permission for US warships to use the Bosporus and Dardanelles straits to enter the Black Sea. The Pentagon has downplayed the deployment by keeping mostly mum about it, only saying that it's "routine" for US warships to patrol the Black Sea. The Kremlin has warned that it's Kiev's own actions and initial troop build-up in and near Donbass that is risking "broader war" in the region. Days ago Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, "The trend in the behavior of the Ukrainian side creates the risk of a resumption of full-scale military action." Russia's newest warning that US ships better not come near Crimea likely also have in mind Joe Biden's first words addressing the long-simmering Ukraine crisis issued early in his presidency. He said in a February 26 statement that the US "will never" recognize Russia's claims over Crimea: The United States does not and will never recognize Russia’s purported annexation of the peninsula, and we will stand with Ukraine against Russia’s aggressive acts. We will continue to work to hold Russia accountable for its abuses and aggression in Ukraine. He had underscored in the statement that "we reaffirm a simple truth: Crimea is Ukraine."

Meanwhile the Russian rouble continues it's decline as the rhetoric and uncertainty grows hotter...

U.S. health officials are recommending Johnson & Johnson’s COVID-19 vaccine not be used until an investigation into cases of post-vaccination blood clots is finished.

The six cases, all among women, involve a rare and severe type of clot called cerebral venous sinus thrombosis in combination with low levels of blood platelets, officials told reporters in a call on Tuesday.

One of the patients died while a second is in critical condition at a hospital.

The patients are between the ages of 18 and 48. They experienced the symptoms between 6 and 13 days after getting the COVID-19 vaccine.

“Right now, these adverse events appear to be extremely rare,” Dr. Peter Marks, director of the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research said on the call.

More than 6.8 million doses of Johnson & Johnson’s shot have been administered in the country as of April 12.

To respond to the cases, the CDC is convening a meeting of its vaccination advisory committee on Wednesday to review them and assess their potential significance. The Food and Drug Administration, along with investigation into the cases themselves, will review that analysis.

Until the probe is complete, health officials and drug regulators are recommending a pause in the use of this vaccine out of an abundance of caution.

“While these events are very rare, we’re recommending a pause in the use of the J & J COVID-19. vaccine in order to prepare the healthcare system, to recognize and treat patients appropriately, and to report severe events they may be seeing in people who’ve received the J & J vaccine,” Dr. Anne Schuchat, principal deputy director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said.

Treatment of the specific type of blood clot is different from treatments that might be typically administered. Usually, clots are treated with heparin, an anticoagulant drug, but using the drug to treat cerebral venous sinus thrombosis may be dangerous.

CVS, Walgreens, and a number of states, including Massachusetts and New York, said they would stop giving Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine in light of the federally recommended pause. The Pentagon is also halting use of J&J’s shot.

Margin Debt Has Exploded by 49 Percent in One Year to $814 Billion. The Actual Figure May Be in the Trillions. Here’s Why.

When Jerome Powell, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, appeared for an interview this past Sunday night on the CBS investigative program, 60 Minutes, he asserted complete ignorance of the amount of margin debt currently being used to inflate the stock market to one new historic high after another. The exchange between Powell and 60 Minutes host, Scott Pelley, went as follows:

Pelley: “The securities industry has reported that $814 billion has been borrowed by people investing in the stock market, borrowed against their portfolios. That’s a 49 percent increase over last year. “And the last time it grew that much was in 2007, before the Great Recession. And the time it grew that much before that was 1999, just before the dot com implosion. At what point does the Federal Reserve start to rein in this speculative bidding up of stock prices based on borrowed money?”

Powell: “That sounds like margin debt. I don’t know that statistic. I really can’t react to that statistic. I would say the main thing that we do is we make sure that the financial institutions that we regulate and supervise understand the risks that they’re running, manage them well, have lots of capital, lots of liquidity, and highly evolved risk management systems so that they do understand the risks they’re running and have plans to deal with them. And that way, when there are shocks, for example, if there were to be a big market correction, you will see financial institutions that are strong enough to stand up to that. Not just private financial institutions, but also markets and things like that, payment utilities and things like that. That’s really what we do.”

Pelley provided Powell with perfect examples of how excessive levels of leverage and unfettered risk-taking on Wall Street blow up markets and the U.S. economy, citing 2007 and 1999. Today, the Fed supervises some of the most highly leveraged financial institutions in the world – including Wall Street banks that are fueling not only their own internal leverage but also fueling obscene levels of leverage by loaning out hundreds of billions of dollars to hedge funds. For Powell to claim ignorance of one of the most important statistics used to monitor excess leverage in the financial system is an insult to the American people.

One good reason that Powell may have wanted to dodge this issue of margin debt is that he knows very well from his days as a Wall Street insider that the $814 billion margin debt figure cited by Pelley is just the tip of the iceberg.

The $814 billion margin debt is the latest amount reported by Wall Street’s self-regulator, FINRA, for February 28, 2021. Indeed, that figure stands 49 percent higher than the $545 billion reported at the end of February in 2020. But as Powell well knows, and the public is just learning through the recent implosion of the family office hedge fund, Archegos Capital Management, Wall Street’s largest banks are not actually reporting all margin debt that is fueling the sharp rise in stock prices.

According to FINRA’s Rule 4521, Wall Street firms are only required to report margin debt for “margin accounts for customers” held at “member firms.” By “member firms,” FINRA means the broker-dealers it supervises. FINRA does not supervise Wall Street banks that are also engaging in highly-leveraged trading — it supervises just the broker-dealers owned by those bank holding companies. For example, according to the most recent report from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), Goldman Sachs Bank USA, a federally-insured bank, has $271.65 billion in assets versus a notional (face amount) of $42.24 trillion in derivatives-see cap#2 and .pdf. On April 1, Financial Times reporter, Robert Armstrong, provided insight into how Wall Street banks are creating private derivative contracts known as swaps, to magically transform margin loans used for stock trading into simple collateralized loans for reporting purposes. This has enabled the Wall Street banks to secret these margin loans away from the eyes of regulators and, in doing so, ostensibly dramatically under report the amount of margin debt in the financial system.

This swap structure has not only enabled the amount of margin debt in the system as a whole to be dramatically underreported but it has also allowed hedge funds to obtain much higher initial margin debt than is allowed under the Federal Reserve’s Regulation T, which sets initial margin at 50 percent of the stock’s purchase price, not the six to one margin (and possibly higher) that was provided by the Wall Street banks to the Archegos family office hedge fund.

Oracle billionaire Larry Ellison tells staff he is going to tear down $80million Florida mansion he just bought

A luxury home that was bought by Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison for $80 million in Florida is to be demolished by the billionaire.

Ellison, 77, who is said to be worth $90 billion, told his employees that he was to demolish the 15,000-square-foot home that he recently bought in North Palm Beach. The luxurious seven bedroom, Tuscan-style home, which was built in 1998, comes complete with a home theater, wine room and tennis court. But apparently it will all be no more. It's not clear with Ellison plans to do with the land once the home is demolished.
