I’ve been saying for about three years now that US citizens abroad and all foreign investors should liquidate their US assets and expatriate them. It now looks like it is too late for a few of Putin’s best friends:
Obama Issues Executive Order Freezing Assets Of Seven Putin Aides
I’m not sure about the legality of seizing private property without due process of law (cf. Fifth Amendment). But rule of law has never been Barack Obama’s strong point.

Bravo Jon.
@chearsBigEars
Thanks for the “heads up” re the radio show. Good press for Issac Brock! The guy doesn’t think it is a go, yahoo….one more on our team.
@ChearsBigEars
I know you’ve played a significant role in getting this kind of exposure. Thank you. Nice Isaac Brock plug!
Thanks ChearsBigEars!
I’ll have to catch it in the audio vault. It sounds like it will be very good. When Jon McComb interviewed Petros you could tell he knows whereof he speaks.

When I first phoned in to his show last Fall I tried to bring up Fatca and it may have been the clearest concise monologue I’ve ever done. My partner was in the car and looked at me and after Jon admitted he is American and knew nothing about FATCA and TDF’s exclaimed: WTF was that really you Mr. Scatterbrain? It then took months of ambushing the show and changing the subject over to FATCA to end up where we are now with a fantastic spokesman for our cause which is also his cause now as well. He’s an award winning radio personality now too. I constantly badgered him saying I think he is THE ONE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJ-wMzr_JZQ
in Canada that is elected to save us all and break The Matrix. I think that gave him something to think about. See? There are a few journalists in this country with their head screwed on right and not cowardly like most everyone else that calls themselves a Canadian har dee har. At the Vancouver seminar Jon sat in the front row and then asked lots of questions of John afterwards. After he left I asked John R. if he knew who he was talking to and he said no …rotflmao
Could people here kindly do the ads and take advantage of the momentum the anti FascistCA movement is starting to see?
Yay ChearsBigEars!
Thank-you Cheers, your persistence is paying off. This was an excellent interview and great publicity.
It would be off-the-charts huge if the Harper gov’t had to invoke the Notwithstanding Clause of the Charter (Section 33) to implement US FATCA legislation in Canada. Boggles the mind. I didn’t know about the 5 year renewal condition. Excellent interview with Vincent Gogolek of BC FiPA. Getting Jon McComb on board was worth all of your effort ChearsBigEars.

Professor Peter Hogg has said:
Presumably, the exercise of the power would normally attract such political opposition that it would rarely be invoked…
…the necessity of re-enactment every five years will force periodic reconsideration of each exercise of the override power, at intervals which (in some jurisdictions at least) will often yield a change of government. This reinforces the already powerful political safeguards against an ill-considered use of the power.
Thanks for all your work on getting this good coverage, Chears!
