THE DOLLAR VIGILANTE BLOG

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] In the most interesting season of The Apprentice yet, reality television programming star Donald Trump said “You’re fired,” to the director of the FBI, James Comey. The storyline that is played out on the mainstream Fake News media is that Comey was investigating Trump’s Russian connections and this caused his dismissal. This,…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] Bitcoin seems to rise $100 and to new all-time highs every day lately. And today, it has broken through $1,800!

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] Bitcoin continues to make all-time highs, currently near $1,560, but altcoins are absolutely skyrocketing. 13 of the top 15 cryptocurrencies in the world by market capitalization were all heavily in the green again on Sunday with many of them in the double digits of percent gains. One of the biggest gainers was…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] Yesterday, the House passed another massive yearly “Omnibus Appropriations” spending bill which came in at a whopping $1.163 trillion! That’s more than Obama spent last year. American’s who thought Donald Trump was really going to bring hope and change must really be shocked to see spending as yuge, or yuger than Obama’s.…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] It was just a few days ago that we trumpeted that bitcoin had hit a new all-time high above $1,330 and it has since blasted through $1400. And, it hasn’t stopped there… at all. Bitcoin has continued to smash through new highs nearly hourly since. And today it hit a high of…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] Pope Francis came out last week with a scathing assault on libertarians. “I cannot fail to speak of the grave risks associated with the invasion of the positions of libertarian individualism at high strata of culture and in school and university education,” the Pope said in an message sent to members of…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] If someone told you that they are a vegan and a meat eater, what would you think? Aside from looking for hidden cameras or waiting for a punchline, if it turned out the person was quite serious, most people would dismiss them as being a complete idiot. Well, Donald Trump just said…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] Having followed bitcoin since it was $3 in 2011 we have had many, many “all time high” celebrations. Breaking $10 was a small celebration. Breaking $100 had us cheering and buying a round of drinks at the bar. And, when it broke $1,000, TDV subscribers were heard around the world buying sports…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] We live in a unique time. Never before have the markets gone to such extremes in almost every way imaginable. Not just the markets either. Nearly everything. US government debt is just getting ridiculous now. There are really no more words to say how out-of-control and unsustainable it is. It’s almost as…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] [vifblike] In many ways, you have to feel bad for Americans. They have been on the receiving end of constant fear propaganda for decades. Just look back to the 50’s with the “Duck & Cover” fear campaign as one example. Getting malleable young minds to cower under their desks in their government indoctrination…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] I recently did an interview with Wealth Research group to talk to them about the latest news in the cryptocurrency arena, entrepreneurial endeavors, and of course about Donald Trump. You won't want to miss this one as we hit a bunch of hot subjects including blockchain technologies and how they are actively changing…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] In 2013, Donald Trump could have almost been mistaken for a Dollar Vigilante subscriber. He was against almost anything Obama was doing, was against all the wars and occupations, was against Obamacare and constantly pointed out all the corruption, criminality and waste in government. Boy, do we miss 2013 Donald Trump. He was…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] People need to realize what government is. It isn’t there to protect you. All government really is is a criminal enterprise that is the most successful one in each geographical jurisdiction. The only difference between the mafia and government is size. And the IRS is just the largest protection racket in the US.…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] I’ve never understood airlines overbooking their flights. What other industry does that? “Hi, I’m here to pick up the painting I bought from you online.” “Oh, there are two other people here who bought it too. I guess I sold it too many times, sorry. I’ll just have some armed men escort you…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] Donald Trump said one thing to get elected and then, once elected, did the other. The fact that people are surprised is, in itself, the surprising part. Hasn’t that been the history of democracy and politics since it was created? Democracy is one of the most bizarre systems ever created, to begin with.…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] Remember before the (s)election when Donald Trump, who was a New York Democrat running as a Republican, was the anti-war candidate? And Killary Clinton, who was a lifelong Democrat, the party that sells itself as the more anti-war party, was the war candidate? And, how Trump’s rhetoric about making friends with Russia and…

[featured-img] [cresta-social-share] Yes, you read the headline right. Donald Trump has warned that attacking Syria could lead the US into World War III! He continued to warn against the repercussions of attacking Syria. He also warned that if the President wants to attack Syria he needs to get Congressional approval. And he warned that if…
