The first 4 minutes are outstanding.  Max and Stacy ask why Wall Street protesters are maced in the face for merely walking on the sidewalk, while JP Morgan’s CEO, Jamie Dimon can throw a tirade in the face of regulators and foreign central bankers without being pepper-sprayed.

Germany Votes Yes On EFSF - NOT The Geithner Plan

We want to be clear, as some readers have already expressed confusion this morning.  The 'Yes' vote today in the German Parliament was widely expected, and is part of the deal reached earlier this Summer, subject to approval by all 17 Euro nations.  Germany was the 9th member nation to agree to the expanded EFSF, with Slovokia next to vote.

As stated, this is not a big story and will do nothing to stem the Euro crisis.  The Geithner Plan, that of a dramatically leveraged EFSF, has not been voted on anywhere, and as we told you yesterday, is being ridiculed all over Europe, along with Geithner himself for having proposed it.

CAUGHT ON TAPE - NYPD Officer Punches Wall Street Protester In The Face, Melee Ensues

Check this out - It all goes down in the first 30 seconds.

Source - Alexander Higgins

In yet another show of rampant police brutality being waged against non-violent Occupy Wall Street protesters, this video captures a NYC police officer grabbing a man by the back of his neck and punching him in the face, again true to form, for no apparent reason.  The man was then arrested and hauled off in a police van, presumably charged with some frivolous crime to cover up the unprovoked assault he suffered.
