Just got done talking with Big, came through with minimal damage, had a little scare, the river close by overflowed and came up to with in ten feet of his garage door. Billy thought it about two and half feet deep and had a strong current down the street. Lost a branch or two out of his trees and said it looked like it snowed shingles through out the area. he could see what neighbors were somewhat prepared and which ones weren’t. All and all he said it wasn’t too bad, heard a big thump on his house about 1:30AM his time and couldn’t find a reason for it. I suggested a yard kite flew by… Been out doing perimeter security sweeps and haven’t found anybody he could engage with. Now he is worried, another big wind is brewing and we are in for a CME within nines days, if it rains, it’s pours.

TD Bank to Pay $3 Billion Penalty After Admitting to Money-Laundering
(my bold)The bank admits to ‘deficiencies’ that enabled criminal networks, including drug traffickers, to launder more than $670 million over several years.
(My bold)
TD Bank, the 10th-largest bank in the United States, and parent company TD Bank Group pleaded guilty on Oct. 10 to conspiring to violate the Bank Secrecy Act and money-laundering, agreeing to pay about $3 billion in penalties as part of a historic settlement involving multiple regulatory agencies.
“By making its services convenient for criminals, TD Bank became one,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said during a press conference in Washington. “Today, TD Bank also became the largest bank in U.S. history to plead guilty to Bank Secrecy Act program failures, and the first U.S. bank in history to plead guilty to conspiracy to commit money laundering.”
TD Bank admitted to having “long-term, pervasive, and systemic deficiencies” in its anti-money-laundering (AML) policies, procedures, and controls from January 2014 to October 2023, according to a Department of Justice statement.
These failures allowed criminal networks, including drug traffickers dealing in fentanyl and other narcotics, to launder more than $670 million through the bank’s accounts over several years.
“The bank enabled drug trafficking,” Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo said.
One significant scheme involved a money-launderer known as “David,” who processed over $470 million through TD Bank branches between 2018 and 2021.

“David has separately pled guilty to laundering drug proceeds through the bank,” Garland said. “David had attempted to launder money through numerous financial institutions. But he found that TD Bank had the most permissive policies and procedures and chose to launder most of his funds there.”
David bribed TD Bank employees with more than $57,000 in gift cards to ensure the continued processing of his transactions.
Oh there is much, much, more.
You should go read the whole thing.
Almost TEN YEARS they got away with this shit.
In that ten years, how many Regular Joe’s got audited?
MILLIONS, I’m sure.
So they are going to pay a huge fine, some low level people involved are going to get hammered with felonies and then this bank will go right back to ripping people off like all the rest of them do and that’s it.
Ten years they got away with this shit.
Everybody from the President of this bank all the way down to the lowliest teller should be sitting behind bars as I type.
Oh but let’s not stop there, the entire staff of whoever was supposed to be doing oversite looking for shit exactly like what was going on should all be investigated as co conspirators the way I see it.
You did see the scope of this right?
TRILLIONS of dollars got washed.
God forbid you should forget to claim anything over $601 dollars though, right?
Spit.
Who says crime don’t pay?
They do!

Philosophy does suck…

I am sure some one in Florida has done this recently.

The kitchen it is..

I’m Not Completely Retarded,Thanks.

He Never Did Nothing to Nobody
Vox Popoli
If only Scotland Yard had been able to conclusively confirm the identity of Jack the Ripper at the time, we might have had an English Anti-Defamation League decades sooner than we did in the USA.
Kosminski was born on September 11, 1865, making him 22 and 23 at the time of the murders. He grew up in Klodawa, near Warsaw, the youngest of seven children, with his father dying when he was aged just eight.
During the murders investigation, Dr. Robert Anderson, head of the London Criminal Investigation Department, had designated Kosminski as key suspect as the killer. Previously confidential police reports, that were published in 1894 as the Macnaghten Memorandum, recorded that detectives believed he had a “great hatred of women, specially of the prostitute class, and had strong homicidal tendencies”.
But even then political correctness made them reluctant to accuse a Jew, due to the potential fallout of antiSemitism.
Every single time isn’t just a meme. “The Juwes are the men that will not be blamed for nothing.” Most people don’t understand the significance of that very literal statement. The religion is much older, and much more terrible, than many of its practitioners themselves realize. It’s absolutely not a coincidence that from the Irish Potato Famine to the Holodomor to the Great Leap Forward, there is always a man that will not be blamed for nothing to be found in the background.
This doesn’t bode well for either Argentina or Mexico. We’ve already seen what it’s done to Ukraine.

Ah, to be insane again…

Just after coffee and beer…

And women cringe…

Someone Please Show Me Where The First Amendment Defines Hate Speech.
You can’t because it doesn’t.

Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s not protected by the First Amendment.
