This headline is only half right–“Putin turns up the heat in Ukraine.” It should read, Obama and Putin turn up the heat. I think this is the big story, and it is being underreported. It has both financial and real war implications. Let’s start with what Russia is doing. It is now going to issue a new bond based in the yuan. Are you getting that? This is yet another move away from using the U.S. dollar to settle international trade. Russia is also hiking the price of natural gas to Ukraine by at least 50% in May. The Russian’s are going to want the cash for natural gas up front. Russia is warning of the dire debt crisis in Ukraine and how this could threaten Russian natural gas deliveries to the EU. I said it’s game on for financial war, and this is proof. Meanwhile, the U.S. is threatening more sanctions on Russia over the growing Ukraine crisis. On top of that, it is being reported by the AP, NATO’s top commander says he could start deploying U.S. troops in Eastern Europe to counter Russian military pressure put on Ukraine. There are negotiations next week between the U.S., EU, Russia and Ukraine. I hope these talks go well, but I can’t see how they can. Keep an eye on this crisis; it has global implications for continued financial war and a shooting war.
Lois Lerner, the former IRS chief at the heart of the scandal targeting conservative groups such as the Tea Party, is now a target herself. House Republicans have sent a criminal referral to the Justice Department. The GOP wants Eric Holder to look into prosecuting her for criminal acts that go against basic First Amendment rights of the Constitution, among other allegations of criminal wrongdoing. The mainstream media (MSM) has largely ignored this story, but make no mistake, this is big. I think the MSM should be ashamed of themselves for not covering this. After all, this is a 1stAmendment issue, and every news organization should be doing all it can to protect this Constitutional right. If this was a Republican administration using the IRS to target liberal Democrats, I guarantee you they would be all over this non-stop, but they are not. This is why I say the MSMlies by omission. This story is not going away. There is much more than a “smidgeon” of evidence here.
