Property developer and CEO Tim Gurner: "We need to see unemployment rise. Unemployment has to jump 40, 50 percent in my view. We need to see pain in the economy. We need to remind people that they work for the employer, not the other way around." "There's been a systematic change where employees feel the employer is extremely lucky to have them, as opposed to the other way around...We've got to kill that attitude and that has to come through hurting the economy."

Look how confident private industry was that the Biden admin would prevent a rail strike. Per coal company investor call: “We’re still believing that the federal government will be involved enough to prevent…So we’re placing a low probability on it.”

At first the CIA was so confident of a Ukrainian defeat they told Biden the best they could hope for was an insurgency they could covertly arm. Whoops!

My latest with @JamesRisen1:
theintercept.com/2022/10/05/rus… US involvement in Ukraine is taking place under a highly classified covert action finding by President Obama. Intelligence officials expressed frustration that there hasn't been a new finding, which would notify Congress

CEO of $12 billion company told investors he's "praying for inflation," an unusually candid admission of a dirty secret in the business world: corporations use inflation as a pretext to jack up prices.

theintercept.com/2022/09/28/inf… “it’s kind of like a rain dance, I pray for inflation every day I come to work because…our top line is really driven by inflation," CEO William Meaney told investors. "Every point of inflation expands our margins.”

Federal Reserve's own economist warns of a "severe recession" if the Fed keeps hiking interest rates.

Fed Chair Powell, a Republican who thinks wages are too high, insists he won’t cause a deep recession but that “pain” is necessary to fight inflation.
theintercept.com/2022/09/09/rec… Fed Chair Powell has said that his goal is “to get wages down and then get inflation down.”

Nancy Pelosi’s statement opposing a student debt forgiveness order followed a lobbying campaign by a billionaire megadonor who’s served as her campaign treasurer since 2012 — and who says he only just learned student debt even exists a few years ago.
theintercept.com/2021/08/05/stu… The donor, Steven Swig, is heir to the oldest real estate dynasty in San Fransisco—where Pelosi’s district is.

He’s contributed millions to the Democratic Party and personally met with Pelosi to discuss student debt cancellation.

DHS leadership sought to cook intelligence to make it look like terrorists were entering the US via the southern border, per whistleblower complaint: intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/… The whistleblowing system is broken. It is extremely rare that oversight bodies decide in favor of the whistleblower and retaliation is commonplace.

Leak to me instead!

FBI docs leaked to me reveal that in 2018, the Bureau targeted "Black Identity Extremists" under a program codenamed "IRON FIST", planning to use undercover agents to infiltrate the group which it considered a top counterterrorism priority.
