Summary

Constitutional Amendment: Sweden’s government has announced plans to amend its constitution to allow the revocation of citizenship from individuals who obtained it through fraudulent means or who pose a threat to the state.

Article
Whether you want to call it ‘deportations’ or ‘remigrations’, there is one strong trend in Europe against not only illegals but also non-assimilating or criminal migrants who have already obtained citizenship.
So, while the European establishment is going mad over German AfD’s electoral chances, some other political actors that are already in power are also advancing in this issue with vigor.
Take former migrant paradise Sweden, for example.
The current government announced yesterday (15) that it will change the constitution so as to take away passports from people who got their citizenship by fraudulent means, or else are a ‘threat to the state’.
Reuters reported:
“People with dual nationality who received citizenship by providing false information, bribery or threats, as well as people convicted of crimes like espionage or treason could be stripped of their Swedish passports if the law is passed.
‘The background is that Sweden is dealing with three parallel and very serious threats to our internal security’, Justice Minister Gunnar Strommer told a news conference. ‘Violent extremism, state actors acting in a hostile manner towards Sweden, as well as systemic and organized crime’.” […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
