They're boxed in by their existing problems with capital flight due to money printing. If they dump T-bills, it makes their goods less competitive. If they devalue, capital flight resumes. Nowhere to go but war.

Meanwhile, the Russians did the sane thing in reaction to sanctions, and preserved the value of their currency by Dumping half their T-Bills.

And here's the smart case for what should be going on: Unilateral free trade.

Roger Stone got shammed by an FIB informant πŸ”—
1529229400  


it is notable that Russians and their partners have used so many former informants...
The author should consider the possibility that this is because the FIB is deliberately trying to entrap the Trump campaign, as they do with everyone else.

Of course he couldn't Lock Her Up, given he was doing the exact same shit. Oh, and as expected, he's a partisan hack, like every other bureaucrat (read between the lines in the report supposedly exonerating him from political bias -- there is no other reason for insubordination at that level in Washington).

Hey, Caesar did it to coerce loyalty too. I guess they've really arrived RE being an empire.

Populism caused by low birth rates??? πŸ”—
1529008546  


Confusing cause and effect. They think immigrants then occur, creating rayciss populists. Nope, people stop having kids because life has become a grinding no-win game thanks to the feds stacking the deck against everyone. It's too damned expensive just to have a friggin' social life these days, much less kids.

Sy Hersh's memoirs sound great πŸ”—

One of my quirks," he writes, "has been to keep track of the retirement of senior generals and admirals; those who did not get to the top invariably had a story to tell in explaining why."

He even watches for obituaries, which often let slip surprising information about the pasts of, say, deceased CIA operatives. And he will call wives or relatives and search for information that way.

Hersh, in other words, works from the edges inward, developing a grapevine of faceless sources that in turn generate rumors and stories of things he isn't supposed to know...
Another great review at the Intercept.
