BlackRock Recruiter Claims Senators Can Be 'Bought' For $10k, War 'Good For Business': O'Keefe

BY TYLER DURDEN

The undercover chaps and lasses at James O'Keefe's new undercover media venture have done it again - this time tricking a BlackRock recruiter into making several damning admissions.

In a series of covertly-recorded meetings, recruiter Serge Varlay describes how BlackRock - the world's largest asset manager - is able to "run the world," and that it's easier to pull off shenanigans when "people aren't thinking about it."

According to Varlay, US Senators can be 'bought' for as little as $10k.

"The senators…are f***ing cheap – you got 10 grand, you can buy a senator," he remarked.

You can take this big f*** ton of money and buy people, I work for a company called BlackRock…It’s not who is the president it’s who is controlling the wallet of the president. You could buy your candidates. First, there is the senators these guys are fuckin cheap. Got 10 grand you can buy a senator I’ll give you 500k right now It doesn’t matter who wins they’re in my pocket. -OMG

Blackrock is also apparently loving the war in Ukraine, which Varley described as "real fuckin' good for business."

Ukraine is good for business, you know that right? Russia blows up Ukraine’s grain silos and the price of wheat is going to go mad up. The Ukrainian economy is the wheat market. The price of bread goes up, this is fantastic if you’re trading.  Volatility creates opportunity for profit…

According to Varley, it's "exciting when shit goes wrong." 

"So what are you gonna do if you’re a trading firm? The moment that news hits, within a millisecond, you’re going to pump trades into whoever the wheat suppliers are. Into their stocks. Within an hour or two that stick goes f*cking up and then you sell and you just make, I don’t know, however many mil," he continued. "The Ukrainian economy is tied very largely to the wheat market, global wheat market, prices of bread, you know, literally everything goes up and down. This is fantastic if you’re trading.

"Volatility creates opportunity to make profit. War is real fucking good for business."

Watch:

As the Post Millennial notes, Varley also described himself as a person who "decide[s] people's fates."

"Every f*cking day, I literally decide how somebody’s life is going to be shaped," he said. "I’m not actually a finance guy, I just know what happens because I’m recruiting people who do these things."

More via the PM:

Varlay said these banks run the world because "you acquire stuff. You diversify, you acquire, you keep acquiring. You spend whatever you make in acquiring more. And at a certain point, your risk level is super low. Imagine you’ve invested in 10 different industries, from food to drinks to technology. If one of them fails it doesn’t matter, you have nine others to back you up."

Varlay said that once "you own a little bit of everything… you can take this big f*ck-ton of money and then you can start to buy people."

Thanks to CoCoLuv9491 for recommending this video... What the Media Is HIDING About Ukraine/Russia While the mainstream US media chant with one voice for war and to place full responsibility for the Ukraine crisis on Russia, a cursory investigation of NATO’s meddling in Ukraine’s affairs for more than a decade reveals how economic interests of weapons manufacturers and the fossil fuel industry have led to the military conflict we’re experiencing today. Jimmy and The Grayzone’s Aaron Maté ( https://mate.substack.com ) discuss western and NATO complicity in the war between Russia and Ukraine. Source: The Jimmy Dore Show

The Next Step for the World Economic Forum

The Next Step for the World Economic Forum BY  ROGER KOOPS      FEBRUARY 20, 2022 I t has been obvious since early 2020 that there has been an organized cult outreach that has permeated the world as a whole. It’s possible that this formed out of a gigantic error, rooted in a sudden ignorance of cell biology and long experience of public health. It is also possible that a seasonal respiratory virus was deployed by some people as an opportunity to seize power for some other purpose.  Follow the money and influence trails and the latter conclusion is hard to dismiss.  The clues were there early. Even before the WHO declared a pandemic in March 2020 (at least several months behind the actual fact of a pandemic) and before any lockdowns, there were media blitzes talking about the “New Normal” and talk of the “Great Reset” (which was rebranded as “Build Back Better”).  Pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, Moderna, and Astra-Zene...

How a BRICS Trio Is Staring Down Israel

  How a BRICS Trio Is Staring Down Israel Pepe Escobar   The Global Majority is fully aware that the genocidals in Tel Aviv are trying as hard as they can to provoke an apocalyptic war – with full US military support, of course. Contrast that combative mindset with 2,500 years of Persian diplomacy. Iran’s acting Foreign Minister, Ali Bagheri Kani, has recently remarked how Tehran is trying hard to prevent “the Israeli regime’s ‘dream’ of triggering an all-out regional war.” But one should never interrupt the enemy when he is in total panic. Sun Tzu would have approved this maxim. Iran certainly won’t interfere as the US and G7 members pull out all stops to come up with some semblance of a Gaza ceasefire deal between Hamas and Israel to prevent a serious military retaliation by Iran and the Axis of Resistance. Earlier this week, that warning bore fruit: Hamas representative in Lebanon, Ahmed Abdel Hadi,  reported  yesterday that Hamas will not show up at the tentative...
