Newt Gingrich Argues U.S. Should Conduct Shariah Test … Newt Gingrich, a former speaker of the House and a finalist to become Donald J. Trump’s running mate, said in an interview on Fox News that Muslims in the United States should be subject to a test to see if they support Shariah law. “If they believe in Shariah,” Mr. Gingrich said Thursday night, referring to the legal code of Islam based on the Quran, “they should be deported.” – New York Times
Has Newt Gingrich actually talked to a Muslim?
Shariah law, as was explained to us long ago, is purposefully harsh to ensure that believers are warned not to transgress. Its intention is moral, not punitive.
The bar is set very high. For instance, it takes FOUR male believers to make an accusation of adultery. They actually have to witness the act. They have to be in the room.
On the heels of the Dow hitting new all-time highs and the U.S. dollar surging, China is about to shock the world and the global financial system.
A Gold ETF That Lets You Redeem Shares for Gold
The economic and financial situation in the United States and world took a turn for the worse in 2016. This was due to many underlying reasons, but the BREXIT vote to leave the European Union and plummeting oil prices were the two largest factors. The BREXIT vote pushed the value of gold and silver to higher levels not seen since 2013 and extremely low oil prices are causing havoc in the U.S. Shale Oil Industry.

Dennis Miller has been a long-term believer of true diversification, using metals and currencies to help diversify his investment portfolio, owning an account with us that goes back to the 1980s. Over the years, Dennis has taken a liking to writing about financials and investments for retired or nearly retired investors. The days of buying / staggering CDs with 6% interest are long gone, and retirees need to look outside the box for ways to generate returns to their nest egg. Dennis makes it his priority to make certain that retirees understand not only what’s going on in the financial world, but how they can also protect themselves or take advantage of what’s going on. So, with no further ado, here’s Dennis Miller to bring you today’s Sunday edition of the Daily Pfennig® newsletter.
The early Spring started out with a decent amount of precipitation; cool nights that kept the moisture at ground level, soft rains in the evenings at least three times each week and an occasional soaker that shut down Sundays so that we all stayed inside playing board games or doing puzzles. The grass came up blue in May, saturated, nitrogen soaked. Every time I looked at the cows their heads were down, methodically making their way in a picket line across the pasture, apricot colored lawn mowers busy with life.
Privacy advocates (that’s establishment speak for “normal human beings”) celebrated earlier this week as the House rejected yet another attempt to expand the Patriot Act’s snooping provisions. House Resolution 5606, better known by its Orwellian name, the “Anti-terrorism Information Sharing is Strength Act,” would have allowed Big Brother to access American’s financial information based on what the government deems to be “suspicious activity.” Given that the DHS has labeled such things as using binoculars, paying with cash, or even “appearing normal” as “possible terrorist activity” in the past, thus making pretty much every human being a possible terrorist engaged in suspicious activity, everyone can breathe a sigh of relief that the bill failed.
Earlier this year an elite special forces insider warned of serious civil unrest this summer. It appears those predictions were quite prescient.
Today is the second anniversary of the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, and we still do not know the explanation.

An attempted coup by the Turkish military on Friday had begun to falter by Saturday morning as the country’s president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, reportedly appeared at Istanbul’s airport and the country’s prime minister said 120 people had been arrested in connection with the takeover attempt.
Our research continues to argue that the current, record rebound in gold stocks will continue. Every time we’ve predicted a correction, the weakness in the sector has been only a fraction of what we expected in both price and time. New bull markets that follow epic bear markets typically show exceptional strength in their first year. This bull has been no different. Thus, we expect the strong performance to continue. Today, we share a few reasons why the junior sector is poised to outperform in nominal and real terms.
Pretend you’re running a corrupt government and something big and scary happens in another part of the world. Brexit, for instance. You’re quite naturally worried about the impact on your local economy and political system. What do you do?
