TRUTH LIVES on at https://sgtreport.tv/
by Pam Martens and Russ Martens, Wall St On Parade:
David Solomon, Chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs, let it slip out at yesterday’s Senate Banking hearing what is really driving the mega banks’ backlash against federal banking regulators’ proposal to raise capital requirements at banks with more than $100 billion in total consolidated assets. (Community banks would not be impacted by the proposed capital increases.)
Solomon responded as follows to a question on the proposed new rules, attempting to justify how the trillions of dollars in derivatives his firm is holding inside its federally insured and taxpayer-backstopped commercial bank, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, is helping the country and that raising capital requirements on those trades would raise costs to consumers:

For a long time, it has been clear that the middle class is being systematically destroyed. The cost of living has been rising faster than paychecks have for years, and this has pushed millions of Americans into poverty. As for those that were already impoverished, many of them have been pushed out into the streets. According to the Wall Street Journal, homelessness in the United States is increasing at the fastest rate ever recorded in 2023. Anyone that thinks that we do not have a major problem on our hands simply has not been paying attention. At one time, living “the American Dream” was a goal that the vast majority of Americans could aspire to achieve, but now it is out of reach for most of the country. In fact, a report that was just released concluded that it now takes 3.4 million dollars for the typical U.S. household to live “the American Dream” over the course of a lifetime…

Millions of people injected with mRNA Covid jabs have gone on to develop vaccine acquired immune deficiency Syndrome (VAIDS), according to a bombshell new report.
More than a quarter of people injected with the toxic vaccines suffered a severe immune response created by a mysterious glitch in the way the vaccine was read by the body, a study has found.

Austin provided an epitaph for a dying empire when he told a forum sponsored by the Merchants of Death, “We must not waver!” This is not a sign of strength, as he and doddering Joe believe, but of foolish arrogance, of refusing to learn from mistakes of the last decades, which have resulted in millions of deaths and super-profits for the greedy “elites” of the corporate cartels. A permanent ceasefire must replace permanent war — join our International Peace Coalition to make that transition happen.

Another huge story of yet another country shunning the US dollar. This story is going totally underreported by the Lying Legacy Media (LLM): United Arab Emirates (UAE) has announced it is no longer using the dollar for oil trade. This is a monster shift that inches the US dollar to losing reserve currency status. The UAE recently joined the so-called BRICS economic alliance, and all the BRICS countries are either depending on the dollar less or doing away with it altogether in trade. If the trend continues, this could spell disaster for trillions of dollars in debt that need to be sold in the Treasury market to finance America.

The Polish central bank has bought roughly 300 tonnes of gold in recent years to bring its gold to GDP ratio in line with the average in the eurozone. For medium and large economies in the eurozone, to which Poland might be included in the future, an equal monetary gold to GDP ratio is a covert requirement for nations to be prepared for a shift to a new gold standard. Based on these requirements I expect Poland to buy an additional 130 tonnes of gold.

As 2023 winds down and I sit here perched atop my computer keyboard reminiscing about the year’s events and blogs, one thing strikes me particularly strongly, and that is the ability of this community to find the most incredible stories or, as is the case today, to offer what seems an “ordinary” story with a high octane comment and suggestion that is not mine, but the person’s who sent the story. In such instances, I am merely acting as a reporter, and perhaps filling in a few details. That is definitely my role here, for the basic high octane speculation connected with this story is not mine, but C.R.’s, who sent along the following article from the BBC, which he also indicated stood for “the British Brainwashing Corporation”:

Spending on hotels and other services for migrants in New York City will hit $4.3 billion by the end of 2023. This is an increase of 48 percent on earlier estimates.
Democrat Mayor Eric Adams and the city government have been reluctant to provide a breakdown of the spending. Its contract with the Roosevelt Hotel, now a major migrant processing facility, has only recently been released. Key details are redacted, such as the amount the city is paying “per room per day”. The city claims this is a “trade secret” – despite the fact hotels advertise their rates publicly.

Trust in the FBI has never been so low, and for good reason. They’re crooked, and they don’t seem to care if you know about it or not.
Who can forget when they targeted Catholic Americans, treating them like domestic terrorists? Today on Capitol Hill, Senator Josh Hawley confronted disgraced FBI Director Christopher Wray about this deeply concerning issue.

As polls show Donald Trump has taken a broad lead over U.S. President Joe Biden in five battleground states, the Liberal media has shifted into full-panic mode, while making some not-so-subtle calls for the Orange Man’s ‘elimination.’
Whether real or imagined, Washington, D.C. appears to be heading for its own ‘Caesarian moment’ as the mainstream media is talking up the prospects of a dictatorship descending upon the fair land should a Trump restoration come to pass.

– Birth Rates Of Illegal Immigrants Are 54% Higher Than Birth Rates In Their Host Countries
America in the twenty-first century has been on an accelerating descent not unlike what befell ancient Rome. For some four centuries Rome’s Senate and constitution provided continuity which sustained the Roman Republic through various challenges. But in the end, what befell Rome from barbarian invasion, political corruption, and mobs that were manipulated and used by its Caesars, was a rampage against reason and freedom, leading to the Republic’s demise and transition to a centralized imperial authority under emperors.
