BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street are in hot water. Texas and ten other states accuse them of antitrust violations, manipulating investments to inflate electricity prices. The lawsuit claims the firms used their market influence to pressure coal producers into cutting output. This led to energy shortages and higher power bills for Texans and others. Another attack from BlackRock and their friends against the working class. First they went after their homes, buying them up at record numbers. Now its crank up their electric bill. #BREAKING: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sues BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street for antitrust violations. This is MASSIVE.

BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street formed a cartel to rig the coal market, artificially reduce the energy supply, and raise prices. Their conspiracy has harmed American energy production and hurt consumers. This is a stunning violation of State and federal law.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and 10 other states claim the money managers combined their market clout and membership in climate groups to pressure coal producers to cut output. Shortages have caused Texans and residents of the other states to pay higher power bills, according to the lawsuit, filed Wednesday in federal court in Texas. The Republican-led states, including West Virginia and Montana, are asking the court to bar the three largest US money managers from using their stock in coal companies to vote on shareholder resolutions and take other steps in a way that restrains output and limits market competition. The complaint marks the culmination of a years-long investigation by GOP officials who have taken aim at Wall Street’s efforts to address climate change, the main pillar of the environmental, social and governance strategy. Paxton is relentless! It’s great to see someone dragging this unholy trinity of companies into a lawsuit!

THIS Is How We Defeat BlackRock, Vanguard and the ESG-DEI Nightmare -- Can I Count On You? This may be one of the most important articles I've published in a while... Let me explain why. I'll start at the beginning and I think you'll really get it by the time I hit the end. Ok, so why do we even care about BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street in the first place? And who are they? They are the three largest Asset Managers in the world. Essentially, and this is no exaggeration, they are the people pulling the strings in the background. These are the "Masters of the Universe". Larry Fink runs BlackRock and he is almost certainly more powerful than the President of the United States. That's not an exaggeration, and I'll explain to you why in just a minute. First, let's start here with something called the "Illusion of Choice". Take a look at the image below.... You THINK there are all of these different brands to choose from out there, but they are really owned by TEN big corporations. That's true in food: And it's also true in Media. Same exact thing.... You think there are a bunch of Newspapers, TV channels, radio stations, websites -- but in 2011, SIX corporations controlled 90% of it all. Ok, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Because as bad as that is, here's the part most people don't tell you. It's actually way worse than that because there's another whole layer on the pyramid at the very top that they never tell you about. In fact, I bet most people reading this have never heard of BlackRock, Vanguard or State Street -- or if you've heard about them you probably don't know exactly what they do. Or if you DO know exactly what they do, I bet you may never have realized why it's a giant problem. So let me explain it to you in real simple terms, and I think it will make a lot of sense. Most people are paid every two weeks, usually on a Friday. And most people have been coached to put 6% of their salary into their 401k and/or some other amount up to the employer match. Great, right? Well, here's what's actually happening. Most of those funds go into ETFs and other investment vehicles managed by, you guessed it, BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street. So they've built a system where millions upon millions of dollars are flowing in to them via YOUR 401k's every two weeks. You bust your butt at work and get a paycheck and you've been coached to give 6% of that check to these "Big 3". The Big 3 then get bigger and bigger and bigger every Friday! What a great system, right? For them it is. And what are you told about it? Almost nothing. In fact, what do they tell you? When you start your job, they tell you to set up your 401k auto-donation and then "forget about it". Isn't that what they say? Don't even think about it! The money will be there for you when you turn 65, but don't think about it until then. And DEFINITELY don't ask who's managing it or what they're doing with it. My friend Patrick Bet-David has been all over this, breaking the story wide open. He was on Joe Rogan last week and he dropped this bombshell.... You think those charts above are bad? That's not even the worst of it. Of the TEN food corporations and SIX media corporations, the control and ownership is actually way more centralized than that. Remember all that money coming in every Friday from YOUR paychecks? That goes to the Big 3, and they use it to own all of those companies. So it's not even the Big 10 Food Companies or the Big 6 Media companies....it's just the Big 3. And of the Big 3 it's really mostly the Big 2. Many believe the Big 2 may eventually take over State Street. For those who like stats, here's the stat for you:  88% of the companies in the S&P 500 has one of the Big 3 as that company's biggest shareholder. PBD breaks it all down here: So...why do I tell you all of that? Because when you centralize ownership and control, bad things start to happen. What starts to happen is the Big 3 and their "affiliates" create things like ESG and DEI scores. ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance and it's a score they give to companies to "keep them in line." So is DEI, which stands for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Don't follow enough Far-Left "social" trends -- not promoting enough Trans agenda or LGBTQ agenda or Climate Change agenda (i.e. Bud Light, Target, etc.)? Then your score takes a huge hit! That really explains a lot, doesn't it? Because I can't tell you how many conversations I've been in with people who say: this stuff doesn't make any sense!  Why are these companies doing this?  Why would Bud Light TANK their company?  They know it's not going to play well to the people who buy their beer? THAT. DOESN'T. MAKE. SENSE! And you'd be right to say that, but only if you assume Bud Light is trying to please the people who buy its products. What if Bud Light had a higher master? What if Bud Light was more concerned with its ESG score? What if all the Executives at Bud Light knew that if their ESG score dropped too low, then their #1 Shareholder (the Big 3) would fire them and replace them with someone who would be "ESG Friendly"? What if you're pulling in a total comp package as a top exec in the $20 million range and your choice is to push the Far Left agenda and push LGBTQ or know that you'll be fired and replaced in a year by the Big 3? What do you do? NOW what decision would you make? Now is it suddenly making a lot more sense? And there you have it. Now I think you get it. Now suddenly every single corporation turning their logo to the Rainbow Flag in June suddenly makes a lot of sense. Once again, here is my friend PBD explaining ESG in much more detail: Now let's recap... Do you see how insidious this is? A big chunk of YOUR paycheck goes to prop up the Big 3 every single Friday, they get bigger and stronger, they use that money to buy all the major corporations in the world, and then they force them to do things you would NEVER support. Sick, right? Now let me bring this in for a landing... And here's why I'm telling you about this. Because we don't just report the news here and then say "good luck"! No, we give you solutions! Now back to my Mission and my solution. I figured I would eventually need to build a Parallel-Economy from the ground up. I knew that would be a ton of work. So it was on my back-burner. In fact, it had been there on my back-burner since about 2016. Until suddenly, in January of 2023, I connected with a company I had never heard of before....but they're MASSIVE. They've been in business for over 35 years and they're a VERY pro-American, pro-Liberty, pro-Conservative values company! They're an American based, Made-In-America, warehoused-in-America, shipped-from-America company! In fact, they're the last private, family-owned, pro-American consumer goods company left in America NOT owned by those 11 companies I showed you above. Oh, and what if I told you the products are BETTER and often CHEAPER than what you get from those 11 companies above? Yes, for real. And their founder was once placed on Barack Hussein Obama's list of the Top 10 most "Dangerous Conservatives" in America? (a list I one day hope to make myself!) Once I learned all of that, I knew I no longer had to build this from the ground-up by myself, I simply needed to partner with this awesome company to help them get the word out. So on top of being the last Family-owned major consumer goods manufacturer not part of the Big-11, comparable or often lower prices, supporting American jobs and families, here's the part that ties in to the main point of this article". Non-toxic products! That means no Arsenic, Cadmium, and Lead in their Spices! Which really, if we're being honest, should be the bare minimum for everyone, right? Stunning I even have to tell you that, but I guess I do! But it also means no Red Dye 40 or flouride in the toothpaste or chemicals in the cleaning products, or Deet in the mosquito repellant. What novel concepts, right? Oh, and Black Angus beef, pasture raised on hundreds of thousands of acres. Free roaming with plenty of open air between all the cattle. Grass fed. No hormones and no antibiotics.  Never! Oh, and it's CHEAPER than Omaha Steaks! But that's a whole other topic! Sound good to anyone else? Me too! The reason you've never heard of them is because it's Invite Only. I can get you in, but you can't just go sign up. They only want people on the same mission to join and they're happy to say "no" to the Far-Left Libs! They've been doing it for 37 years and it's been working great. Everyone gets a personal, white glove, concierge customer service support to get you access to everything they have. Imagine that! No call centers from India. Just real, friendly, helpful and NICE Americans helping Americans! Wow, like going back in a time-machine. So it is Invite only...and good thing you know someone that has the invites....(me!). If you'd like to find out more and get a FREE personal invite, just go here and tell them Noah sent you:  https://SwitchWithNoah.com It's the real deal, and because they don't raise the Black Angus like the big companies do, they may have the SHUT OFF invites if they grow too fast. So if you want in, let me know soon. There's only one pro-American, American made and manufactured, chemical free, toxin free, hormone free, company left....and I'm teaming up with them to FIGHT BACK! Who's with me?

These are awesome people and I think you'll love getting a chance to talk with them. And they'll help get you all set up. Who's with me and who's ready to stop eating Arsenic, Cadmium, and Lead? Your friend, - Noah p.s.

A senior adviser of Kamala Harris revealed that the Harris campaign’s internal polling never had Harris leading Trump. In the months leading into the 2024 election, several mainstream media outlets reported that Harris was leading Trump in several swing states. David Plouffe, a senior adviser to Harris, was surprised by the polls presented in the media because internal polling showed Harris either behind or tied with Trump. Plouffe shared, “I think it surprised people because there were these public polls that came out in late September, early October, showing us with leads that we never saw.” “The Harris campaign’s internal polling apparently never had her ahead of Trump.” pic.twitter.com/iq82an8Ro3 — Mark Mitchell, Rasmussen Reports (@Mark_R_Mitchell) November 27, 2024 LIARS: Senior aids to Kamala Harris have told the Huffington Post in an interview that internal polling NEVER showed her ahead of Trump. Basically, they ran a ONE BILLLION DOLLAR campaign based on a lie. pic.twitter.com/vvnqjPOjE8 — Breaking911 (@Breaking911) November 26, 2024 Check out what The Washington Examiner reported: The leadership of outgoing Vice President Kamala Harris’s 2024 presidential campaign said that internal polling never had her ahead of President-elect Donald Trump. After President Joe Biden began lagging heavily behind Trump in the polls in June and July, the entrance of Harris appeared to solve Democrats’ problems. From August until right before the election, a great many accredited public polls had Harris leading Trump. According to David Plouffe, a senior adviser on the Harris campaign, this was never reflected in internal polling, which always had Harris behind or tied with Trump. “We didn’t get the breaks we needed on Election Day,” he said in an appearance on the Pod Save America podcast. “I think it surprised people because there was these public polls that came out in late September, early October, showing us with leads that we never saw.” Plouffe added that internal polling didn’t change much throughout the election, remaining mostly static since Harris joined the race in July.

Democrats were relying on fraud, but we made it too big to rig. pic.twitter.com/VrSKBRyNsi — Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) November 26, 2024 Per Yahoo News: Senior advisers to Vice President Kamala Harris’ failed presidential campaign suggested this week that there just wasn’t much else Harris could have done to beat Donald Trump. Harris couldn’t have distanced herself from President Joe Biden, they said, because she was loyal. She couldn’t have responded more forcefully to attacks over trans rights, because doing so would have been playing Trump’s game. And she might not have had much chance of winning anyway, given the deficit she inherited from Biden when he dropped out of the race in July. “We were hopeful. I don’t know how optimistic we were, but we thought, OK, this is tied, and if a couple things break our way [we could win],” David Plouffe, a senior adviser to the campaign, said Tuesday on the “Pod Save America” podcast in a joint interview with fellow Harris campaign alums Jen O’Malley Dillon, Quentin Fulks and Stephanie Cutter. Plouffe said the campaign’s internal polling never had Harris ahead of Trump. “We didn’t get the breaks we needed on Election Day,” he said. “I think it surprised people, because there was these public polls that came out in late September, early October, showing us with leads that we never saw.”

According to a statement from the Trump-Vance Transition team, several of President Trump’s Cabinet nominees were targeted in “bomb threats” and “swatting” incidents. “Last night and this morning, several of President Trump’s Cabinet nominees and Administration appointees were targeted in violent, unAmerican threats to their lives and those who live with them. These attacks ranged from bomb threats to ‘swatting.’ In response, law enforcement and other authorities acted quickly to ensure the safety of those who were targeted. President Trump and the entire Transition team are grateful for their swift action,” the statement read. “President Trump and the Transition are focused on doing the work of uniting our nation by ensuring a safe and prosperous future. With President Trump as our example, dangerous acts of intimidation and violence will not deter us,” it added. #BREAKING: Several Trump cabinet nominees were targeted with bomb threats and SWATTING last night, per @karolineleavitt The violent left is at it again.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), who was nominated by Trump to become the United States Ambassador to the United Nations said she was targeted. “This morning, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, her husband, and their three year old son were driving home to Saratoga County from Washington for Thanksgiving when they were informed of a bomb threat to their residence,” her office said in a statement. “New York State, County law enforcement, and U.S. Capitol Police responded immediately with the highest levels of professionalism.” New York State Police confirmed they responded to Stefanik’s house at 9 a.m. “State Police members and K9 units trained in explosives detection swept the home and did not locate any explosive devices,” the agency said in a social media post. Former Rep. Lee Zeldin, Trump’s nomination to head the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), said there was a pipe bomb threat made against his home. “A pipe bomb threat targeting me and my family at our home today was sent in with a pro-Palestinian themed message. My family and I were not home at the time and are safe. We are working with law enforcement to learn more as this situation develops. We are thankful for the swift actions taken by local officers to keep our family, neighbors, and local community secure,” Zeldin said.

Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., who last week withdrew his bid to be Trump’s attorney general, confirmed that he was among the targets of a bomb threat. A bomb squad reported to his home in Florida in response to the threat. Initially, a bomb-sniffing dog was brought to his home by the sheriff but was inconclusive, which led to the bomb squad being called in. The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office said “no devices were located. The immediate area was also searched with negative results.” Gaetz said he was not home at the time but a family member was. The details of the Gaetz threat were first reported by Punchbowl News.

Democrat strategist Theryn Bond is not on board with a potential third presidential run for Vice President Kamala Harris, who recently lost the 2024 election to President-elect Donald Trump and failed to launch her 2020 bid past the end of 2019. Bond joined the hosts of Newsmax’s “National Report” on Tuesday when the conversation turned to Harris’ political future — which, according to a report from POLITICO, could include either a third run for the White House or a run for governor in her home state of California. WATCH: "I hope [Kamala Harris] doesn't [run for president in '28]. And if she is relying on those same advisers that advised her this cycle, that's not who I would listen to." — Theryn Bond, Democratic strategist@WalkingMicDrop @LukeTBall @EmmaRechenberg @Glasgow_Jon pic.twitter.com/CdYm1qWr4B — NEWSMAX (@NEWSMAX) November 26, 2024 When asked whether she thought Harris was making the right decision when she promised donors and allies that she intended to stay “in the fight,” Bond made it clear that she didn’t believe that fight should extend to another presidential campaign. “Not to run for president again in 2028. Please don’t,” she said. “I can’t really speak for governor of California. Californians seem to support her significantly,” Bond continued. “We haven’t yet been able to measure what that support looks like after this current run she just had. That may be the only thing that she, I guess, may make sense for her to consider, but another shot at the presidency, I hope she doesn’t, and if she is relying on those same advisers that advised her this cycle, that’s not who I would listen to.” CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE Bond is not the only one who’s not thrilled about a possible third Harris campaign. Democrat megadonor John Morgan also cautioned her against another attempt, criticizing her campaign for blowing through more than $1 billion and still coming up empty in 2024. Morgan told NewsNation host Chris Cuomo that Harris’ mismanagement of her campaign and money “disqualified her forever,” adding that she “cannot be trusted with the money.” “If you can’t run a campaign, you can’t run America,” he said. “The same thing is going to follow Harris for the rest of her career. She cannot be trusted with the money, and the donors are going to be, like, ‘Where is this money?’” Kamala Harris’ failed $1.5B campaign ‘disqualifies her forever’ from running for president, Dem megadonor cries: ‘Cannot be trusted with the money’ https://t.co/0UY7bSnrex pic.twitter.com/6ITcSszcBF — New York Post (@nypost) November 27, 2024
