Highlands Bunker – BONUS EPISODE – The Streets of Puerto Rico

Ed Note: This report on the power of regular people to make change is extremely timely, so this bonus episode has been unlocked for supporters and non-supporters alike.  REV says it all the time half in jest, but I add my voice here in all earnestness: Consider becoming a patron, there is a tier for every clear thinking person who has ever lurked or commented here.
Highlands Bunker - BONUS EPISODE - The Streets of Puerto Rico
A few bunker updates as well as the first-ever Skype interview from the bunker. Maria Beauchamp calls in from the massive strike in Puerto Rico just hours before the governor resigned. The audio is a bit rough for the first section, but it gets easier to hear later on. Show Notes:

Carper, Coons & LBR well positioned for long term roles in the Trump Regime

1 Comment
Now that the Trump regime has consolidated the courts under his control, and has direct management of the nation's intelligence operations, the calm quiet of Tom Carper and his two proteges in Congress has come into focus and begins to make a lot more sense. For all of his faults, Tom Carper is able to see further down the road that most of us. It is a skill he brought to setting up Delaware as the usury-friendly state when governor. Similarly, Carper must have seen the Trump regime continuing and thriving well into the future. What profit could a clear thinking striver like Carper see in rocking the boat when a long (possibly multi-generational) Trump regime was practically a forgone conclusion given the cowardice of the Democrats and uselessness of the media? There is no profit in it and that is obviously something that Coons and LBR picked up on as well. How else can you explain their preternatural calm in the face the end of our American experiment? There is no explanation. They are calm because they see the future more clearly than the rest of us and that has given them a running start at planning for that future. They know that Trump will need the support of a faux congress to give his brand of fascism a patina of legitimacy. Carper, Coons and LBR must be high on Trump's list when he considers how he is going to manufacture that legitimacy among DC-based talking heads and feckless political "analysts". It is sickening to confront this reality, but feeling sickened is going to be the least of our worries by next year at this time.

You have a moral duty to fill in this form so that Equifax will send you $125

If you fill in this form, Equifax will send you $125 as part of its settlement with the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, the FTC, and 48 out of 50 states. Equifax doxed the nation and profited handsomely from it. $125 is a laughably small sum given how much damage the data they hemorrhaged all over the internet could cause you. Equifax should have faced the corporate death penalty, the execs who oversaw the disaster should have had their assets seized and diverted to anti-identity-theft measures and charities. Instead, the FTC et al are hitting the company for a maximum of $700m(how much they pay depends in part on whether you fill in this form. Equifax's market cap stands today at $16.6B, and it posted $3.412B in earnings in 2018, up 1.48% increase from 2017.
