LOL and they used a production companies logo who had zero input into the video. Said company was quick to heavily criticize “The whole enterprise reeks of amateurism and comes off as an attempt to check the box on a harebrained idea that presumably originated in the oval office.”

RIGOLO wrote: » And rounding off a stellar week for POTUS, Abes visit to Washington, the G7 performance and movement on the NK front, the FED has topped off DTs birthday cake with a big cherry. A very hawkish report from the Fed yesterday, pointing to an endorsement of DTs economic policy. Inflations heading for a steady 2% as targetted, forecasting 3.6% for unemployment, 3.6% thats an incredible number, and also the most important part is the wording thats used. Its all in the terminology when it comes to reading these reports and the FED whicc is usually conservative is using some very strong and positive lingo to express its outlook for the US economy . the 0.25% increase in interest rates was expected , and had been priced into the market. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/06/13/fed-hikes-rate-by-a-quarter-point.html Plus the numbers out of Chinas were dissapointing, industrial output fell. Again Trumps economic plan is making the right waves for US growth . And he has barely gotten started. It takes weeks and months for any decision to take effect, expect more positive economic news for the US and Trumps Presidency in the coming months as his strategic decisions are given more time to work thru the markets. This is all very positive for POTUS and the mid-terms, as the economy steam rolls along, its making it harder for the Democrats to get any traction with voters. Say goodbye to taking over the house , and in so doing say goodbye to the impeachment .

The money was flown into Iran on wooden pallets stacked with Swiss francs, euros and other currencies as the first installment of a $1.7 billion settlement resolving claims at an international tribunal at The Hague over a failed arms deal under the time of the Shah.
