CME Group has announced a hike in margin requirements for Comex silver futures after prices surged to record highs this week, underlining the sharp rise in volatility across precious metals markets.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) said margins for non-heightened risk profiles on Comex silver futures will rise to 11% of notional value, up from 9%. For heightened risk profiles, margins will be increased to 12.1% from 9.9%. The exchange also said margins on platinum and palladium futures will be raised.

The new rates will become effective at close-of-market today (Wednesday).

It is the same mindset that gave pro football the new and unwatchable “Sissy” Kickoff Rule, that made it possible for Bill Belichick to not be elected into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Both are ridiculous and should be overturned!

POTUS TRUTH

It's hard not to notice that a lot of people who claimed to care about "genocide" are suddenly very quiet about the almost 40,000 innocent Iranians who were just slaughtered by their government for wanting freedom.

The selective outrage is evidence of the brainwashing pushed by leftist celebrities and politicians.

They won't talk about Iran because they actually support the satanic Islamic regime and not the innocent Iranian people begging Trump to help them.

Multiple reports out of the Middle east report the Majlis - Iranian Parliament - have approved the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. The final decision is in the hands of the Iranian government/security apparatus.
Many media outlets and prognosticators have extensively written about that in the past decade.
Then, Goldman Sachs derivative experts were adamant: "if Hormuz is blocked, before or during a full-scale naval war in the Gulf, oil may reach $700.00 a barrel."
And this will only be temporary - because the entire global economy will collapse.
Most of all, the blocking of Hormuz would trigger the detonation of the TWO QUADRILLION dollars derivative market - updating the initial, erroneous $700 trillion estimate by the BIS (Bank for International Settlements), according to Gulf traders.
Already during the past decade, the Joint Chiefs of Staff admitted that they do not have the military ability to keep Hormuz open.
Today we have Rubio talking about  US "force posture" near Iran.
As 30-40K US troops are "in reach of thousands of Iranian UAVs and ballistic missiles."
That’s why it's “prudent" to have forces to "defend against what COULD BE an Iranian threat”.
Of course, this “threat” does not come from the "massive armada" assembled by the U.S. . . . . 

Iranian Elites are Spooked

All senior members of the Iran Revolutionary Guard Corp (IRGC) and the Iranian military are CUT OFF from cellular communications.

For fear of targeted assassinations, senior members are not allowed to own, use, carry or be in possession of cell phones, at all. . . . not even in their cars.

Surprisingly, Mayor Jacob Frey just stated that, “Minneapolis does not, and will not, enforce Federal Immigration Laws.” This is after having had a very good conversation with him. Could somebody in his inner sanctum please explain that this statement is a very serious violation of the Law, and that he is PLAYING WITH FIRE!

POTUS TRUTH

POTUS is doing ALL he can do...it's their choice, their move.

Optics are important.

30 Q drops with "OPTICS"

DEVICE TEST: As President Trump was speaking yesterday Fox’s live feed was interrupted by a TEST pattern at exactly 4:37 CST or 5:37 EST, which is 17:37 military time.

Look at Q- Drop 1737 and you find:

“DEVICE TEST”

That’s a hell of a “coincidence”
