Trump to Greta Van: Sequester Cuts Don't Go Far Enough, Without Cuts There Will Be Big Fat Explosion
2/22/13 - Donald Trump stopped by On The Record to share his thoughts on the impending sequester with Greta Van Susteren. Trump dismissed the hypo over the spending cuts, saying that they should be much deeper, and predicted that if the government avoids making any serious cuts for the next few years, there will be a "big fat explosion and it's all going to come to an end." Trump said "not a lot is going to happen" as a result of the automatic sequester, dismissing the "over-exaggerated" alarm and added that the cuts do not go far enough. He told Van Susteren that the nation is going to have to endure far deeper spending cuts in order to get a balanced budget. Van Susteren asked Trump what would happen if the U.S. government resists the urge to cut spending. Trump predicted that if this happens, then in a few years there will be a "big fat explosion" in the nation's economy and "it's all going to come to an end." He acknowledged that action should be taken to make the United States great again, "because it's not that great right now." He attributed the nation's economic woes to both incompetence and partisan politics. Trump allowed that it was a widespread problem in government, but ultimately "the president is your leader," blaming President Obama for being unable to fix the broken economy in his first four years. He predicted that in 2016, China will become the dominant economic superpower, and they will have done it "on our back." Van Susteren ended by asking if Trump has any presidential aspirations in 2016. Trump said he does not, adding that he loves the United States and would be happy if the president could make the country great again, but said that's not likely to happen any time soon.

The sequester is Obama's mess. Don't help him clean it up ~ Rove Group
Rove Group Blasts Obama's Sequester: 'It's His Mess, Let Him Clean It Up'
Playing the sequester blame game
By Jon Healey, Los Angeles Times
There's been little sign of movement by Democrats or Republicans toward a deal this week on the "sequester," the $85 billion across-the-board cuts in discretionary programs due to begin March 1. President Obama and congressional Democrats have stuck with their argument that the spending cuts should be replaced at least in part by higher taxes and reduced farm subsidies. And Republicans have resolutely rejected anything that looks like a tax hike.
Nevertheless, the rhetoric about the sequester is intensifying, betraying how worried both sides are -- not about the cuts themselves, necessarily, but about the chance that the public would blame them for what ensues. The Republican National Committee, for example, released a video on YouTube on Thursday arguing that Obama was for the sequester before he was against it. Naturally, it took his comments about the sequester completely out of context, as Buzzfeed's Andrew Kaczynski pointed out. Still, the operative Republican talking point is that the White House came up with this crazy idea, so if it actually happens, it's not the GOP's fault.
Democrats, meanwhile, are trying to focus the public's attention on the personnel and services that will be cut -- such as FBI and Border Patrol agents, air traffic controllers and Head Start slots -- and accusing Republicans of refusing to consider the Democrats' alternative. Although Obama has led the charge on this front, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee released videos Thursday blasting 27 individual Republican House members for doing more to protect "millionaires" than the economy.
The committee's videos tout the Democrats' proposed replacement for the sequester without mentioning that it's built around another multibillion-dollar tax hike -- the second so far this year. Yet that's the make-or-break issue here. Neither side wants to furlough air traffic controllers or customs agents, but Republicans want to lock in more spending cuts, and that's one thing the sequester would deliver.
So if nothing changes and the sequester goes into effect, will the public blame Republicans for refusing to consider replacing the cuts with tax hikes on high-income Americans and oil and gas companies? Will they blame Democrats for failing to offer an alternative the GOP might possibly support? Will they blame Obama for coming up with the idea, thinking the prospect of a sequester was so horrible that it would help break the congressional logjam on a long-term plan to reduce the deficit?

Orion In The Vatican ~ Danny Wilten
Red Ice Radio - Danny Wilten - Orion In The Vatican
Danny Wilten, an analyst, alchemist, symbolist, & hermeticist joins us to discuss his Ebook, Orion In The Vatican. There is a mystery associated with the Orion Constellation found in indigenous cultures all over the world that dates back to ancient Egypt. Danny discusses man's connection to the Orion Nebula and its association to the human body and consciousness. He talks about the mystery of how the Orion Nebula has been subconsciously depicted by some of the greatest masters in religious art including Michelangelo, El Greco, Bernini, and others, yet the intimate knowledge of the Orion Nebula found mysteriously in these paintings precedes the discovery of the telescope and still would require technology that rivals some of our most powerful telescopes today. We'll point out what art pieces reveal important clues. In the second hour, we discuss symbols such as the winged disc and the all-seeing eye. Danny will talk about the Orion Constellation and Pleiades as mentioned in the Bible. Later, we'll discuss Ellen G. White who founded The Seventh-day Adventist Church as well as other seers and visionaries who have mentioned Orion in their work. Wilten further explains why the findings he's made can't be explained away as Pareidolia, seeing patterns in random data.

Bank Fraud Explained in 10 minutes
This video's focus will be economics - a subject affecting everyone, but understood by virtually no one. This is not an accident. Datum Line is a RBN Broadcast that will focus not so much on the: who, what, when and where of Americas demise - but on the why and how (cause and effect). From these elements we can determine a course (national and personal) that leads away from certain future destruction.
