Who is she and why should I listen to her?

Who is she and why should I listen to her?

Without checking, I believe she owns a small time commodity brokerage and has knows precisely how MF Global scammed many of the people in the business. The govt refused to investigate / prosecute. Find her prior appearance in Schiff radio for some background. I posted the video back when it happened. I can dig it up later when have a chance

This may have something to do with it.

zerohedge: "The Entire System Has Been Utterly Destroyed By The MF Global Collapse" - Presenting The First MF Global Casualty

It is with regret and unflinching moral certainty that I announce that Barnhardt Capital Management has ceased operations. After six years of operating as an independent introducing brokerage, and eight years of employment as a broker before that, I found myself, this morning, for the first time since I was 20 years old, watching the futures and options markets open not as a participant, but as a mere spectator.

The reason for my decision to pull the plug was excruciatingly simple: I could no longer tell my clients that their monies and positions were safe in the futures and options markets – because they are not. And this goes not just for my clients, but for every futures and options account in the United States. The entire system has been utterly destroyed by the MF Global collapse. Given this sad reality, I could not in good conscience take one more step as a commodity broker, soliciting trades that I knew were unsafe or holding funds that I knew to be in jeopardy.
[...]
Finally, I will not, under any circumstance, consider reforming and re-opening Barnhardt Capital Management, or any other iteration of a brokerage business, until Barack Obama has been removed from office AND the government of the United States has been sufficiently reformed and repopulated so as to engender my total and complete confidence in the government, its adherence to and enforcement of the rule of law, and in its competent and just regulatory oversight of any commodities markets that may reform. So long as the government remains criminal, it would serve no purpose whatsoever to attempt to rebuild the futures industry or my firm, because in a lawless environment, the same thievery and fraud would simply happen again, and the criminals would go unpunished, sheltered by the criminal oligarchy.

Her website bugs. You can't access a specific blog post, only her home page. I'd link to her announcement of her federal tax strike post (and her follow-up), but I can't because of the way she has it set up. I found a copy of it here:

Because you fools refuse to act to correct your lawless government via the most effective, simple and utterly non-violent method, namely a tax strike, you are guaranteeing hot war, bloodshed and catastrophic suffering.
[...]
“I fear God, and God alone, and thus I will render unto Him EVERYTHING, up to and including my wealth, assets, freedom and life, if that is what is required to remain in compliance with His commandments. The early Christians went to their death rather than offer a pinch of incense on the altar of Caesar. Incense is merely symbolic and burns away. Money subsidizes, finances and enables activities that break God’s law. Therefore I will not file, and I will not pay income taxes unless and until the Federal Government of the United States is reformed under the Constitution of 1787 as amended and the Rule of Law is reasserted, necessarily including the arrest and trial of Barack Obama, and the re-criminalizing of abortion in all cases, or until a new, legitimate government replaces it.

I disagree w/ her on a lot of issues, but that chick has got spunk, and guts, and moxy. I can't believe she hasn't been picked up and renditioned to God knows where over her public calls for a second American revolution.

Who is she and why should I listen to her?

 

[roho76]

I can't watch these at work but I hope she is not really burning the Quran. Is she? This is no way to make friends. I agree with her there is no reason to put money in the market. I am contemplating pulling mine as we speak and moving it to commodities but I can't put weight behind someone who's foolish enough to do something like that.

 

[BucksforPaul]

Apparently, cold blooded murder of millions of Muslims, mostly women and children, in the last decade is not enough for this bitch so she must also burn the Qu'ran.

 

[angelatc]

She's got the crazy eyes.

 

[pcosmar]

She's got the crazy eyes.

yes she does,,and some sadly familiar views.

However,, that does not mean a look at Sentinel and other recent announcements should not be examined.

but I have no money in this rigged game,, so it ain't nothin' to me.

Well, i don't approve of her burning the Quran.....must be PMS. I've pulled all my investments out first thing this morning and will be buying physical Silver. Now i know why grandpa buried his money in the back yard instead of in the bank.

some tidbits from vid an from these forums

"They want your money. They want to nationalize your accounts and force you to buy treasury."

They can at any time, print more paper, cause inflation, and just lower the value of your savings. Why don't they? Why do they "need" my paper, or, why do they "want" my paper? They have an infinite supply?
Are they afraid of inflation?
Is this some type of total control? (aka communism)?

"force you to buy treasury". Is it force to buy treasuries from USAMERICA or Fed Reserve Banks? Take these worthless promises, give us our bank notes (buy back shares)?

"The ruling to not keep separate accounts was intentional." That is something to ponder. That the judge ruled not as a lone judge, but as part of a corporation which decided what was the "best" ruling to hand down. To make the mundanes WANT their savings stolen.

Now we have gold manipulation and silver? More planned chaos? Perhaps an attempt to demonize gold holders, in the same way the demonization of short sellers and automated traders is currently preceding?

She's right on in the video and extremely funny to boot.

"The way I read it was that basically you no longer have property rights. If you have your money in any (US) financial institution, you now have no property rights because in a crisis situation a bankruptcy judge now has the right to say that all of this speculation (by the banks and brokers) takes precedence over your savings."
W. E. Pollock

It *could be* that this distorting of property law was written for the convenience of Jon Corzine and his ilk.

But it could also inadvertently pave the way for a major bailing out of an insolvent financial system using customer funds. There is some precedent in this. Even that bastion of the people, FDR, took their gold by force of law and THEN appreciated it substantially by devaluing the dollar against it in order to refund the depleted banking system. Why the Fed's Took the Gold in 1933.

Perhaps this time instead of the official gold in circulation it will be the savings in 401k's and IRA's, and the foreign assets held in custodial accounts, that are misappropriated by banks and brokers.

It is interesting to hear the reaction from some financial circles that the notion of customer segregated funds was always a thinly disguised farce and so this is nothing new. They will rationalize crimes in a widening circle of corruption. Their malicious greed knows no bounds.
[...]
Ann Barnhardt is a fierce advocate for customer rights. I have to say that I find her views on muslims in general to be extreme and misplaced to say the least, and highly offensive. And some of her other views are also extreme. I pray for her and others who fight against corruption that it does not tarnish them. Love is a shield against the excesses of a hardened heart.

This is a portion of her 'fierceness.' As a long time friend and fan of hers noted, I would hate to be married to her, and forget to take out the garbage.

Keep in mind that Ann saw her business destroyed and her customers cheated and robbed by the brazen theft of customer money in MF Global perpetrated by a corrupt US financial system. That is a hard lesson.

She has previously documented her legal dealings with the National Futures Association and their 'arbitrary and incompetent actions.'

This discussion on the place of customers in the US financial system is useful. The risk calculation has definitely changed.

And in case you were wondering, No Criminal Charges Expected at MF Global - NYT, 15 Aug 2012

"Oh, you didn't know that those assets pledged by that fund or broker, the customer money, gold and silver, belonged to someone else when you took it and sold it? Ah, well that is all right then. That is just a misappropriation. And the CEO could not have known about the hijinks going on in their back offices."

Obama's bag boy gets off

Corzine is officially deemed above the law:

A criminal investigation into the collapse of the brokerage firm MF Global and the disappearance of about $1 billion in customer money is now heading into its final stage without charges expected against any top executives.

After 10 months of stitching together evidence on the firm’s demise, criminal investigators are concluding that chaos and porous risk controls at the firm, rather than fraud, allowed the money to disappear, according to people involved in the case.

Remember that excuse the next time you're facing an audit. Just tell them it was the result of "chaos and porous risk controls" and that will eliminate any possibility of legal wrongdoing.

Jon Corzine vs Julian Assange....COMPARE AND CONTRAST.

Feisty woman. This is a true feminist not the ones you are accustomed to seeing.

 

[AuH20]

She's absolutely right. It's just paper. I've seen crucifixes enclosed in jars of urine and no one died. LOL Just like the flag is just cloth.
