  1. great show ! thankyou !

  2. Underwater due to global warming? That’s it Max is a moron…

  3. And thanks to Matt for this.

    I was a concerned greenie before this article. Now I can relax a bit more. Its another warning to always be on my guard.

    And to almost totally ignore the MSM.

  4. Matt woke me up to the cap and trade / global warming con. Before this I was a devotee

    http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/29127316/the_great_american_bubble_machine/7

    BUBBLE #6 Global Warming

    And instead of credit derivatives or oil futures or mortgage-backed CDOs, the new game in town, the next bubble, is in carbon credits — a booming trillion dollar market that barely even exists yet, but will if the Democratic Party that it gave $4,452,585 to in the last election manages to push into existence a groundbreaking new commodities bubble, disguised as an “environmental plan,” called cap-and-trade.

    @ MEP – fed interventions/investigations

    The Fed during Bush 43 ignored these financial syndicates.
    Obama Admin so far is permitting the same people (who Max Keiser calls “Financial Terrorists”) to continue to influence and become involved in guarding the hen house.

    Regardless of which agency is involved, the need for insect repellant is clear. It’s harder to keep these pests away from our small and medium sized businesses than to keep ants from sugar and bees from honey.

  6. some smartter phrase (correction Damn Google)

  7. @ Joe
    Peak-oil is one real thing everyone can agree on.

    Who said I agree
    RODFL
    I dont belive in Peak anything
    Who ever came up with that phrase should be shot for just the fact that he was’nt brainy enough to come up with some smatter phrase

    I dont belive we’ve hit Peak anything
    you may have been to Peaking
    Peak -Water what crap 3/4ths of earth is covered with water yeah it’s got salt
    You dont think we are smart enough to make it Drinkable Cummmmooooo.. n

  8. Good show, guys. The best part about The Keiser Report: live Stacy!!

    It was cool to see Matt on the show. He forgot about all of the people that went to jail after the S&L crisis; other than that, he was right on the money.

    @ Stacy – Is your avatar you as a child? If so, what a freaking cutie!!

    @ California Doctor – The secret service is also supposed to have a financial crimes unit. I’m guessing that with threats against Obama being up by 400% (compared to Bush), they’re stretched too thin.

  9. i was drawing portraits at a corporate party event last night for a Dutch bank- they had a gaming table area-roulette,craps etc some banker guy was there throwing his dice and chips around and says “why, hahaha- this is just like working at the Bank!” …great *(direct quote) = thawt you might like that Max n Stacy… xmorganic

  10. As they say. The fox is guarding the chicken coup. Its very obvious and there is even a large amount of evidence to send alot of these banksters and politicans to prison. But it will never happen. They’ll find one or two scapegoats and punish them and the other 99% of the white collar criminals on the inside will kick back on their carribean luxury yauchts.

  11. Constitution 1st

    Max,

    Why do you still buy the “global warming” theory?

    It is not settled science and everyday new evidence surfaces that it is a gigantic fraud for the purpose of creating a carbon trading casino, carbon taxes, de-industrialization, world government and population control.

    The same people pushing this hoax are the same people you correctly rant against who are scamming the world in every way they can.

    Ken Lay created the carbon trading scheme. That alone should throw up red flags…

    Love ya buddy but am confused…

  12. @stacy
    does that mean we’ll never know?

    - btw nice photo!

  13. I like matt and the coherent way he backs up each point he makes with examples.

  14. The good thing about greed is that it ultimately destroys itself

  15. “Where is the evidence for CO2-driven climate change?
    Where is it? If it doesn’t exist, climate change is still going to happen for the good, for the bad, and for the neutral. Regardless of -/+ ‘change’, we have scientists working on understanding the full complexities of climate science and they aren’t working to an agenda other than understanding, they aren’t falsifying data to create ‘warming’, they aren’t omitting data to create ‘warming’, they aren’t manipulating the peer review process to prevent science, and they aren’t avoiding reasoned argument in favor of authority based on dubious scientific evidence that is being hidden behind commercial agreements to protect disclosure of just how dubious it really is. And to be clear, this is the raw ground temperature data we’re all being denied. The admitted to manipulated data is the sole basis for yet more computer-modeled projections for warming alarmism that pushes people’s fear buttons so well.

    Aren’t people tired of living in a simulacrum?? Isn’t the inevitable crashing of debt money matrix ‘evidence’ enough that we need to return to a real/scientific/objective/rational/sustainable world??

    You think — given the stakes — that so-called “skeptics” are arguing so vehemently for the satisfaction of being ‘right’?? Such an accusation would say far more about the accuser than the accused.

    If you want to locate my outrage about climate change, it is at the corruption of science. Given your pressing concerns, why are you not similarly outraged? Aren’t you for a fair debate; a fair fight based on evidence? You’re outraged at the central banking warfare model because you understand it logically and empirically. Were those understandings not based on evidence? Does your outrage about climate change not deserve the same level of prior rational thinking?”

  16. @max/stacy
    Im beginning to ‘warm’ up to the global warming issue. In either case though id rather not see some global tax scheme & rather see community based programs. Peak-oil is one real thing everyone can agree on. So getting off the oil addiction is necessary or else energy costs will hit everyone like a brick in the face. In the US particularly coal could be used as a buffer to ease the effects of getting off middle eastern oil (it could power the US for close to 100 yrs by estimates). In either case populations will need to start preparing for the inevitable.

  17. @gb – yes, it is very easy to find out who made the $270 million; the SEC just needs to look at the data

    @buddhabob – thanks :)

  18. Max, you are a smart guy…How come you still buy the Global Warming bullcrap?

  19. California Doctor

    @Max – the financial mercenaries

    Prosecution of these bastards requires an FBI and DOJ that is not gutted.

    Post 9/11 the Bush 43 Admin gutted the FBI and local law enforcement which was going after the white collar financial criminals.

    Now, we’re dealing with the massive fraud and corruption by spitting into the wind.

    Like a poisonous spider’s web, the strands are thin individually but the web is sticky and catches many.

    Pass me some bug spray.

  20. @gb
    I was thinking the same thing when I first read Tiabbis report on it… It would pretty obvious that the person has high ties with Paulsen and company

  21. @Max&Stacy
    is it impossible to find out who made the 270 million?

  22. @WL

    thanks for the link

    @Photoception:

    Diversifying into sdr would be a way for Japan to stabalize their export price without causing further yen appreciation through treasury sales: they can swap the treasuries for IMF bonds. Russia both did:

    http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=ahoIPyEdpHUI

    IMF bonds are denominated in sdr.

  24. @Phil
    I first thought the USD/JPY move was a result of the Japanese central bank trying to devalue the Yen.

    My gut feeling is that the world’s central banks are secretly planning to devalue the exporter’s currencies.

  25. Congratulations to Max and Stacy. this site has now become the single best financial reporting site on the Web imo. And fortunately it is never divorced from politics as well.

  26. Phil:
    If Japan dumps treasuries, then they will hurt their own export market more. They are most probably diversifying into sdrs.

  27. LOL Steven Seagal is a police officer in Louisiana

  39. Chmuck Scum-mer pretty please take a look at these $1 dollar ATM fee’s… haha this guy was comedic relief

  40. @ M
    Why does Schumer

  41. That crowd would do us a tremendous favor by reading Joe’s avatar.

    Jump!!!

  42. @ sklein
    my father in law was from Scum-mer’s district and thought the guy walked on water. All he had to do was throw him a bone (i’ll save you from ATM fees!) and Schumer could then ream him all he wanted. I could never get him to understand that.,

  43. LOL … are Bank fees on ATMs too high ? …. “Can you do an investigation on that”
    Bernanke … “well, banks are trying to find was of getting revenue”
    Everyone in the background laughs !

    BS’ing Pricks ….
    Talk about keeping away from, and talking around the truth….
    …. and keeping away – by DELAY – from doing what needs to be done.

  44. Risk/Reward – Benefit/Cost —- if someone is willing to take trillions of risks the put the whole nation at risk then they should be put in jail !!

  45. I can’t watch any more of this Bernanke BS.

  46. ATM fee’s is the best you got Schumer?? its something to be looked at but … really thats your starting questioning stance… @mariette your not the only one puking

  47. Do you guys deliberate mispronounce Barack Obama’s first name? YOu put the emphasis on the first syllable and no one else ever does. Why do you do it? JME

  48. @ Marrietta

    Schumer is such a suave liar.

  49. Why does Schumer make me wanna hurl more violently than most politicians? Just a rhetorical question. :)

  50. Sen Shumer

    Bernanke

    you are a victim

  51. Warren Buffet isn’t a senator you are Schumer…

  52. Colapse

    Colapse

    Colapse

    Schumer sucking up big time.

  53. The way I see it if congress or the senate dont turn around soon and flush the fed down the toilet, then the American people should not only flush the fed down the toilet but flush congress and the senate also, which they have the right to under the constitution.

  54. The day any Politician/Bankster uses the word “Imperative”
    Watch out hes Lying 200 % sure

  55. FDIC should be new regulator with Treasury

  56. @ Joe Already seen that

    I think an (a word i’d like to use anogrammm ???)
    Meaning Jekyll and Hide

  62. ohhhhh “the banks needed liquidity to keep reserve requirements and this wont happen again” — REALLY???

  63. @Joe

    He had a tear gleam in his eye..Won’t abuse his supervisory powers..

  64. I would like to see that mic shoved up his nose into his brain and hear what he is really thinking

  65. frances snoot

    Is Bernanke going to jail for perjury? Who cares is they call him names?

    He lied under oath before Congress about the Merrill deal:

    http://kucinich.us/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2795

    They are tossing bits of crumbs to the crowds now.

  66. anyone notice Bernanke has a bit of a nervous and scared tone in his voice

  67. Arrr!! Shiver me pencils!

  68. @stacy
    Bunning from Kentucky

  69. Who called him the Creature?

  70. Hillary Clinton says
    ” we didnt see that standard met”
    Thats Grammaticaly wrong I think or the Sentence
    @ 4 : 45 or so

  71. @frances @all

    HAHA calls Bernanke “creature from Jekyll island”

  76. Too bad Rand Paul is running for this guy’s seat. No net gain if he wins.

  77. Bunning is ripping Bernanke a new one

  78. Oh an unfriendly go

  79. so tell me the truth Bernanke what is the REAL way to get the economy going? Do we need a depression to wipe out all the bad debt to actually get things going again?? Anyones thoughts?

  80. anything but green.again

    Can’t find the old tv interview where Icke (nice occult name) discussed how he discovered he was Jesus Christ.

    A later Icke can be seen here. Tavistock seems to have had trouble deciding just what slot to put him in.

  81. @phil
    Man, Bernanke is good at brown nosing both sides of the isle!

  82. @Mother
    you are quick

  83. Is inflation going to come back?

    Bernanke

    “We will not monetize the debt”

    HAHAHAHAHA

  84. Bernanke .. “We will not monetize the debt”

  85. @Marietta … AHA , Bennet raising the question ( 30% etc. ) now .. it seems.

    Let’s see how far he goes.

  86. @marietta

    Think he had a stroke

    Uh oh talking great depression

  87. @marietta …

    For example, why doesn’t anyone ask Bernanke how it is that the Banksters get FED money at ca. 0%, and the CC customers and small businesses are being forced to pay 29.99% ?

    BTW … the 29.99% is obviously to keep them legal, but if US$s are being lent to the US PUBLIC at 30% using the US PUBLIC’s money, what does that tell you about the US$ and the system !

  88. @marrieta

    I know, it is freakin unbeleivable how much power these incompetent clowns have, we usually get someone that really makes Bernanke squirm

    That is why I own gold

  89. @Dedo

    You around the Rory Mcilory area?

  90. How did the guy with the marbles in his mouth get elected??!!

  91. @marietta .. LOL , was thinking exactly the same .

    BTW …. did you notice how Bernanke “pretended” that Dodd was actually against him … and Dodd came in to praise him yet again. Hollywood couldn’t have done better IMO !

  92. @marietta,…It’s a big game,.politicians know exactly how to play it!
    Don’t be fooled : )

  93. you know, listening to this hearing, our biggist problem is the idiot politicians don’t know what the hell they’re talking about. I wish all of you guys were asking the questions; that would nail Bernanke

  94. Bernanke claims that globally> political discourse is to increase central bank powers as in Europe and UK

  95. HuffingtonPost has a live stream of the twitter updates on Bernanke hearing for those who care to follow: http://bit.ly/78Bj1i

    Or you can just follow it on twitter: http://twitter.com/#search?q=bernanke

  96. Bernanke statement over

    Note “begs to keep job”

    Dodd BSing

    Questioning could get fun by non friendlies

  97. @WL – I knew it would happen sooner or later

  98. Bernanke statement

    claims “Max was right and the US$ is worthless”

  99. “we’re watching you jamie”!!!

  100. under the radar…

    the AG equities have been moving lately, underperformed and relatively flat lined for a while…now going

  101. @Phil – nope I was referring to your update re: Dodd; I did, however, refer to @WL with reference to needles in eyes . . .

  102. Mike2liverpool

    Nice hair Stacy
    Mike

  103. @Stacy .. you mean WL of course , he posted the Bernanke link.

  104. @Phil – thanks for keeping us posted on what’s happening; as it is, I am just far too busy poking needles in my eyes to watch it

  105. @WL — Live Bernanke hearing

    Unbelievable … the crap spewing out of dodd’s mouth .
    I can’t listen anymore , or will someone stand up and speak the truth ?

  106. If placing needles in your eyes got you bored

    Live Bernanke hearing

    http://banking.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Hearings.LiveStream

  107. MORE PROPS!!! Grim reaper of debt, LOL!

  108. great guest and excellent discussion of naked short selling

    the grim reaper of debt reminds me of groucho marx’s duck on “you bet your life”

    “millions starving” and “one in eight on food stamps” are mutually exclusive

  109. Tiabbi and Scahill are my two favorite journalists by far. Great show!

  110. My guess … DJIA 11K soon !

    Hopefully the US$ will correct accordingly .. downwards !

    Its Just Insider trading thats all

  113. The EU banks have more losses hidden because they are more leverage than US banks

  114. The US exports war, banking oligarchs, and fatty foods

  115. That was an excellent show guys!

  116. The way these bankers think, if someone accused them on the US MSM they wouldn’t even deny it because they are so arrogant.

    Great to see Max actually state that Rolling Stone is almost MSM. We’re getting closer man.

    Nice work Max And Stacy. Keep it up.

  117. @Stacy .. lovely hair-style today .. it suits you !
    Nice tie Max !
    ;-)

  118. Did max get a box of new ties for christmas or what?

    Just sitting down to watch this now for my lunch hour…..ahhhh tea
