If there has been one politician on these pages we have WARNED ABOUT over the years it is Senator Mitch McConnell. The Senate Majority Leader is the most conniving, cunning and Machiavellian member of the republican party.
With his positions solidifying CTH warnings for well over a decade, his actions over the past several weeks now highlight the dark background of his politics. Today, McConnell took the final stab at the people’s president as Donald Trump prepares to depart the White House. The bloom is off the ruse:
The institution of the modern UniParty senate chamber requires a voter to understand the shell game. The pea is never where you think it is. The Democrats and Republicans are two wings of the same vulture.
Defenders of the Decepticon schemes rely on our inability to understand a hidden agenda; a secret agenda… However, with more eyes now open this outline will start to make sense.
First, McConnell doesn’t care about holding a majority position in the Senate. Whether he is a majority leader or a minority leader doesn’t matter to McConnell. In fact McConnell’s political skill-set does better in the minority than the majority.
The preferred political position for Mitch McConnell is where he has between 45 and 49 republican Senators, and the Democrats hold the Majority with around 55. Of course with Senator Harry Reid’s retirement, this would now imply Majority leader Chuck Schumer holding office.
Why does McConnell prefer the minority position?
The answer is where you have had to actually follow Mitch McConnell closely to see how he works. When the Majority has around 52 to 55 seats, they need McConnell to give them 8 to 9 votes to overcome the three-fifths (60 vote) threshold for their legislative needs. It is in the process of trade and payment for those 8 to 9 votes where McConnell makes more money, and holds more power, than as a sitting Majority Leader.
The 60 vote threshold, and McConnell’s incredible skillset in the minority, is where he shines. Each of the needed votes to achieve sixty is worth buckets of indulgence to the minority leader and those on K-Street who need the Senate to support their legislative constructs. The votes to get to sixty are worth a lot of money.
This institutional dynamic is the currency of affluence and influence in the Senate; this is why Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell never changed the Senate rules for legislative passage. This is why the filibuster was retained and why the 60 vote threshold was always beneficial to both parties. The color of the flag atop the spire matters not.
Except for budget passage (reconciliation); and McConnell being forced by intransigence in the era of Trump resistance to change the judicial vote threshold to 51; McConnell would never consider changing the legislative threshold (60 votes) to a simple majority (51 votes) because it would be removing his favored position.
A simple majority vote is adverse to the institutional interests. That is why McConnell retained it during his reign as majority leader; as did Harry Reid before him.
The process of selling votes to the 60-vote threshold in the Senate is where the UniParty operates; and where the status of maximum financial benefit for the minority exists.
As a majority leader with 52 GOP senators, McConnell needed to purchase eight or nine votes for each legislative priority.
Mitch McConnell doesn’t like being the purchaser, he prefers being the vote seller where his skill-set as a broker really shines.
McConnell is much better at extracting terms for his vote sales, than being the purchaser for the votes of an intransigent minority wing. This is why the current Senate doesn’t pass many bills.
With Democrats in the majority, and McConnell as minority leader, we will see much more legislation pass because Chuck Schumer is a more well financed buyer (K-Street) and McConnell is a much better seller. Whenever we have this republican minority dynamic it always leaves people confused because few really watch what McConnell is doing.
McConnell takes his favorite 18 controlled GOP senators (Decepticons) and he brokers their votes on an ‘as needed’ basis. The eight to ten senators he selects each time get compensated in the process. McConnell rotates the financial beneficiaries on a bill-by-bill basis. As a consequence each of the 18 or so McConnell senators get quite wealthy over time, and McConnell gains additional power and influence.
McConnell decides who takes committee positions, those committee positions are worth money to K-Street purchasers of legislation. That’s one aspect to his power.
McConnell also hand-selects which senators will provide the votes to the majority to reach the 60 vote threshold. He uses a formula of favoritism, loyalty and studies the election cycles to determine who in his tribe will sell their votes and gain. That is the second aspect to his power.
If any of the republican Senators attempt to disrupt this UniParty business model McConnell excommunicates them from the legislative process; the best reference for the ‘excommunicado’ approach is former U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (R-SC).
Additional references for how McConnell operates this scheme as the Minority Leader can be found in the Corker-Cardin amendment which allowed the Iran nuclear deal/payments under Obama; and/or the “fast track” Trade Promotion Authority deal for TPP passage, again for President Obama’s maximum benefit.
In these two examples McConnell worked with Harry Reid to flip the vote threshold from two-thirds (super-majority) need to approve, to two-thirds (super-majority) needed to deny. They flipped the dynamic in order to give Obama the tools he needed for the Iran deal and the Trans-Pacific-Partnership trade agreement (TPP).
[SIDEBAR – Within TPP Minority Leader Mitch McConnell was again working on the priorities of U.S. Chamber of Commerce President Tom Donohue. McConnell and Donohue have been working together on UniParty trade and domestic legislative issues for around twenty years. It is well established that Senate Leader Mitch McConnell has one major career alliance that has been unbroken and unchanged for well over two decades. That alliance is with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and specifically with CoC President Tom Donohue.
CoC President Tom Donohue represents Wall Street interests and supports: all multinational trade deals, open-border immigration policies, amnesty legislative constructs, and all of the issues that have generally irked common-sense GOP voters for the same period of time. [SEE HERE and SEE HERE]. Tom Donohue is the biggest lobbyist spender in DC every year, by a mile.
To remind ourselves how Minority and Majority Senator McConnell took down the threat of the Tea Party revisit these old articles: CNN Part I and CNN Part II both showcase how McConnell works. Then do some research on how McConnell worked with Haley Barbour in Mississippi [SEE HERE] – END SIDEBAR].
Hopefully, now you can see how the business model within the senate is lucrative from a financial standpoint. Selling votes from the minority position is worth a lot of money. Additionally, the power dynamic is essentially even within this process. The majority holds political and financial power… and the minority holds enough political power to keep the majority in check (as well as mutually beneficial financial power).
For those who understand the dynamic the next obvious point is: what happens when Schumer takes the majority, eliminates the filibuster and takes legislative passage to a simple majority (51-votes)? This is, after all, what the far-left has promised to do.
From McConnell’s position if the Democrats are the party that changes the precedent for Senate legislative passage, he feels it will provide him ammunition to retake control in the 2022 mid-term; and he wouldn’t be the historic figure to have changed the rules.
McConnell counts on the GOPe machinery (RNC), the purchased and allied Wall Street media, and his K-street backers to assist him in getting back in power. The righteous donation requests from the political and financial class are always enhanced by the extremes and outrage. If Schumer kills the filibuster and takes the senate to a simple majority McConnell will weaponize the maneuver against his “friend across the aisle”.
That’s the way the Machiavellian processes work…. they GOPe do not care what your opinion is about it.
Apparently China’s representative in Congress is Now Mitchie Turtle Mack…
has been since the mid 90’s, as is most of the west coast delegations.
SAD
$25,000,000 reasons why….
Traitors always show their true side eventually..
Mitch is a political slut. Whoring himself out to the highest bidder or more powerful player. PDJT was that more powerful player for 4-years … now the slut gets on his knees before new power players.
Maybe lightening will strike them when they enter that church tomorrow morning.
Them including the trio…obamabidenharris…..right???!!!
One could only hope….
Like the Pastor in Caddyshack!
Or worse.
Just keep in mind St John’s church is the the one the peaceful ones set on fire.
Is St. John’s the one they will be attending?
That is how it was reported to me on local radio. But who knows; it seems everything is a charade these days.
A satellite dropping from the sky. Or better yet, the tablets on which the 10 Commandments are written gall on their heads.
#10Commandments
#ThouShaltNotSteal
#ThouShaltNorBearFalseWitness
We should make that trend tomorrow!
Good Plan!
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Thou shalt not lie.
Comments about boycotts of various companies. Yes, and good to do, but effect can be scattered if not some coordination. I think boycott of GOPe “FOX” them. In donations and registrations. Enough quick soon and obvious across the country may set them back on their heels a bit. They don’t care about us, but there may be a few who start seeing registration numbers plummet and they may start questioning. It’s useless to try the turtle, but there may be others. I would think the 2022 GOP senators may start having a come to Jesus moment. They have to start reelection work in a couple months. If registration numbers fall off the cliff…..the may realize their political future is in jeopardy.
The turtle’s comments today may be attempted defiance to us and his tribe. He may think with enough brow beating we will come back……like we have so many times before. What he doesn’t realize….yet is this is it and we are done. Granted, elections are worthless now, but they will still try and cajole us. I would think by about summer time and there is no meek return to GOP by voters and funding, some of those 2022ers may start wondering. We need to keep the pressure on which will be easy….we do absolutely nothing.
They never have a come to Jesus moment. They say they do but they don’t.
The only solution is to kick them out and give them nothing to “sell.”
Brant: Your comment “Granted, elections are worthless now, but they will still try and cajole us” is already in play. A local MA Republican has already emailed me. His angle is that we can’t be split and that we should not think about the Grand Old Party but rather the Grand Opportunity Party. I wasn’t able to respond to his email directly, but I was able to unsubscribe immediately.
In Iowa, neither Grassley nor Earnst lifted a finger in support of Trump. Joni Earnst is now loudly against impeaching him out of office. Grassley has 60 years of service clout with the old Iowans, Earnst does not. She wants to be reelected, so I’m guessing Turtle has given her the OK to let the cajoling begin.
Iowa, kick her to the curb and take neighboring Kinzinger (IL), with her.
Both of these phonies duped the good hearted working fly-over mid westerners.
too late ernst just got re-elected
Iowan’s were not duped about Joni Ernst. President Trump came to Iowa and asked us to vote for her. We did. She would not have won otherwise. She is not very popular in my area of the state, which happens to be a very Republican area.
I stood up in the caucuses and spoke against her, she wouldn’t have gotten one vote that night in that room. I doubt she will ever win another election in Iowa.
Just a point of information… Business Reply Mail is charged to the customer/recipient by weight. If you send just the letter back to them, it’s something like 65 cents. But if you load that envelope with all the paper it’ll hold, or you can find something flat and heavy to put in the envelope, tape it up well so that it doesn’t come apart during the mail process, it’ll cost them several bucks. The more it weighs, the more it costs them.
A petty vengeance, yes, but it’s not illegal.
Yes, after McConnell’s statement I am now done with the Republican Party. I am changing my registration to independent. I will support America First politicians only. I’m in a red state so primaries are not generally a concern. If there is one to change blue to America First, I will change my party affiliation back for that primary vote. McConnell is now a traitor in my opinion. He just got re-elected so he does not care. His donations come mostly from the global corporate world so he will be hard to eject. However I will be sending an email to all republican senators telling them they have destroyed the Republican Party. I know they won’t care, because of their corporate sponsors, but I’m going to let them know anyway. The main point I am going to tell them is that they have SOLD out America to global corporations and China to line their on pockets at the expense of America. They do not understand the significance of what they are doing in partnering with the communists. They think this movement is weak and just a passing fad. They are wrong and we all need to let them know.
We are going to need the influence of 80 million patriots to make a difference. This means phone calls, letters, emails to all these global corporations that yes, we will boycott them. We will also need help from other free countries. We need to develop our own worldwide freedom coalition to energize. They are out there by the hundreds of millions. the question is only how we all connect to sent a single message of freedom and liberty. In other words we have to organize like the dems have organized. It is up to us. Hopefully President trump will be our leader.
What about those who say This is what they want us to do? Honestly somebody is going to have to convince me to vote again. Things could be different in a year or 2.
The photo with Schumer is all you need to see. A picture is worth a thousand words. Appreciate the author’s analysis.
I won’t support Republican Because of CCP McConnell and he’s follower Rino’s,I’m Done with them,
those Rino s against president Trump and nothing but bunch of damn wipe Republican,
always stand with MAGA.
Amen
Maga
The SWAMP has the Media, all Intelligence agencies, all Military, all of Congress, every Court, the voting machines, every vote counter, and every other Government Department! It will do no good to try to vote new people in, since they will control all voting. The SWAMP will never allow those who resist. Otherwise, you will get the Trump, and his associates treatment!
My guess is, they will NEVER allow Trump to run again.
That’s why we need to grow MAGA to insurmountable numbers.
Big effin surprise…..
My letter to Mitch McConnell:
To former leader Mitch McConnell:
First, understand that I am writing you as a former Republican. Just so that you don’t delude yourself, I am a conservative, and will no longer support the GOP due to your party’s lack of support for our great President Trump. I am anxiously awaiting President Trump’s next move and will follow his lead to form a new MAGA coalition. My fervent hope is that you and other RINOs like you will be primaried and replaced.
Second, the GOP senate rubber stamped what is the biggest fraud ever to be perpetuated on the American people. Joe Biden is a fake president and is clearly a puppet for his global overlords. Apparently, so are you. The evidence that has been presented points to clear and massive election fraud. Your failure to address it is shameful and an embarrassment to our country.
Third, by blaming President Trump for inciting the invasion of the Capitol, you have exposed yourself to being just an elitist snob who thinks you know what’s best for we the people. You referred to the President’s supporters as a “mob”. You clearly have forgotten that you represent and work for your constituents. You and your fellow politicians have done nothing but enrich yourselves through kickbacks from lobbyists and your foreign deals.
Fourth, your actions post election, clearly demonstrates that you are unconcerned whether your party holds a majority or a minority. The refusal to introduce a stand alone stimulus for hurting Americans, your overriding the President’s veto of the defense bill due to the failure to address section 230, and your inaction on addressing election integrity led to the loss of two senators in Georgia. You don’t care because whether you hold the majority or not, you can still make your back room deals and you mistakenly think you’ll raise money for the GOP with empty promises to “fight for the American people”. That ship has sailed Mitch.
I am a very engaged citizen. I followed every betrayal you and your GOP senators dealt our President and your fellow Americans. I am a small donor to the MAGA campaign, like millions of other forgotten Americans that our President gathered in this movement. That’s over for the GOP now.
You committed political suicide for the Republican Party. It is a laughingstock now. I truly hope you are capable of self reflection and will resign. Going forward, I hope to see term limits so that people like you can’t enrich themselves off the backs of the taxpayers in this country.
Sincerely,
Elaine Geissler
i said many,many months ago-TURTLE- got to be stewed……
You’ll never hear back from him. He didn’t even acknowledge my letter I send to him the 7th. I told him he was a weasel and not much of a man cause he didn’t have the bit of backbone-no one in congress did. As for Rand Paul I do believe he is hiding from us. He not doing his usual meetings and he is plain hiding. He did acknowledge and thanked me for the letter but nothing else. Disgusting. jmo
This is good.
My only humble suggestion is rephrasing this statement, “blaming President Trump for inciting the invasion of the Capitol”.
I didn’t see an invasion. I certainly did not see the president inciting anyone. I saw people protesting a wrong, being let into the People’s house, and a small minority causing some mischief. I certainly would not qualify it as an invasion. That is the narrative that I believe should not be accepted.
Thank you! I revised it to say “ so-called invasion”.
Someone should send him Trump’s actual speech. But like everyone has been saying, it wouldn’t matter.
Does not matter if it does not matter. Do it anyway. They respond to numbers, not content. Rip em. . .diplomatically of course.
Less ‘damage’ was done in Washington DC than in Chicago back in May. There is still a Walgreens on Pulaski, that is boarded up.
It serves a minority community.
In both cases, the damage was caused by people who knew better. No one made them engage in any destructive behavior.
It was their free will. Free Will. Their choice.
As far as I am concerned, these statements by Congress need to stop now!
Excellent letter.
SUPERBLY SUMMARIZED, Patriot Elaine, Thank You !
A VERY high-class way of telling the treasonous turtle: Golf Foxtrot Yankee !
VSGPDJT WILL prevail…we hope & PRAY !
Wonderful letter, Elaine, and very well written!
EXCELLENT mot2grls!! Perfectly worded.
To – mot2grls: Really enjoyed your perspective. In the future, please don’t forget that Elaine Chao, Mitch McConnell’s wife of 27 years, had no problem acting as Secretary of Transportation under President Trump for 4 years at a salary of about $200k/year. Isn’t it interesting how emboldened McConnell is now after his wife fleeced the tax payers for about $800k?
Great letter! I called his Louiville office with similar, but not so well worded sentiments. Good for us! Read it and weep Mitch.
McConnell has committed a Blood Libel.
People should’ve learned their lesson about McConnell when he said he’d “destroy them wherever they are” in regards to the tea party. They will use the same tactics on MAGA.
BLM has taken control of who is a Member of the club and who isn’t. They had a white guy removed from twitter because he said Stacy Abrams was fat. (jmo)
She is. Facts Matter.
BLM and Antifa are assets of the establishment ruling class and their corporate oligarchy partners. That’s why nothing happens to them.
Just for now nothing will happen to them. The bleeding heart liberals believe all will be well when PDJT is gone. They will have a rude awakening when the riots in the DEMOCRAT cities continue unabated……and more people are killed.
Wait until a main stream media honcho gets the crap beat out of him at one of their peaceful protests. When ANTIFA/BLM start stomping the hell out of peaceful blacks, hispanics and other minorities you’ll see people of color devouring their own.
When the Rinos see Republican registration roles SHRINK and donations dry up, they’ll panic and beg 79 million of us to come back. When our monetary boycotts of left leaning PDJT hating business entities start hurting investors’ bottom lines, something good might happen.
Unfortunately, I’ll probably be too damn old to appreciate it.
May the Rebel Alliance or Resistance thrive!
They are the Brownshirts of the D̶e̶m̶o̶c̶r̶a̶t̶ #DemScum party
She’s fat. Fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, and no, being fat is NOT healthy some people would have others believe.
Incredible how soon people forgot all of McConnell’s previous betrayals and blatant shows of contempt for the conservative base.
They never represented their base. They were always a ruse.
Did I tell you I despise this man. Doesn’t surprise me he did this today. What does he have to lose? When this term is up he wasn’t going to run again. He has lost alot of Kentucky people. Talked to my sister in law and I told her I switched to independent and they both said they weren’t ready to do that just yet. I told them do what is right for them.I can always change registration back to repub for primaries if need be but for now dropping repub label was what is right for me. Sister in law called me back that night and said they both dropped repub for independent and said it the right thing for them to do. It takes a little courage to be “woke”. I wonder sometimes if it had been better to never know what we do today. They are out to destroy PT but more so to destroy us. jmo
Seems there is only one thing they are afraid of, hence the level of security for tomorrow. Even the people that visit businesses and shut them down are not afraid to do their jobs.
on guard for more theatre tomorrow. A false flag excuse to go after everyone’s guns.
All that conniving by McConnell just so Trump doesn’t pardon Assange? Do it anyway, Mr. President!
Can you just imagine what he knows Assange has on all of them? It must be really bad and would expose the whole damn swamp to the world. God please step in now!
Mitch will double cross any supposed deal
The Senate CANNOT IMPEACH TRUMP IF IS HE ISNT THE PRESIDENT
Biden will be sworn in tomorrow
So Mitch’s threats are empty
And Roberts has said he wont do it either
Seriously….my thoughts exactly….trump should…huge middle finger to them all….wonder what it is that Assange really has…
NeverNikki
Never, ever, Little Nikki.
NEVER! NEVER!
When Trump trued to suck up to McConnell by giving his wife her old jib back, I said it was huge mistake. With that move, McConnell knew he could sucker (punch) Trump.
You underestimate POTUS even after 5 years. That isn’t a “suck up.” It’s a political exchange. Everyone in his job, unless he works totally alone, if he’s effective, has engaged in a political exchange. You learn about both your supposed friends and your enemies from this as well as building capital.
The only political capital Donald Trump went into office with, being an outsider with no personal knowledge of the DC players was the voters who put him there.
His intelligence and his voters….these are what led to the successes he had. HIs intelligence is illustrated in his putting together the most effective economic team in my lifetime. The other side AND the GOP had to be mindful of his voters.
They still do. The Dems are trying to strong arm us they are so afraid of our passion and our numbers,, and some in the GOP, including McConnell, are trying to ignore us. There are those warning the GOP they’d best not light a flame to Trump–Graham tonight and the reliable Matt Gaetz.
I can’t wait until POTUS has had a chance to unwind and get engaged again.
i remember when PDJT quipped humorously, about Mitch …. I don’t know, It’s hard to know what side he’s on.
McConnell and Pence are both going to the inauguration. I never trusted either of them. Time to #WalkAway from the GOP completely. Ask yourself, What has the GOP done for America? How many stood up for America on January 6th? How many of them fought for truth and justice after the stolen election on Nov 3rd? Ask yourself, just what did the GOP do? What have they done in 2020? Then ask yourself how many times did either their actions or inactions help the Democrats?
There is no Repub vs Dem. There is just a majority of corrupt politicians in DC. I know it’ll hurt some good people like Devin Nunes in the short term, but 75-80 million Trump supporters have to #WalkAway from the GOP. Completely. Let those few good people follow US as we blaze a new path forward.
You ARE correct, Mark…it’s just the Uni-party duopoly/technocrat minions of the evil ruling global bankster-cabal overlords vs. Patriots; SADLY TRUE !
Well the good ones like Devin can move over to the new Party.
If they “are” good the will move over.
There will be an effort by the bad guys to take the reins of leadership of a new party, just as happened to the Tea Party.
McConnell and Pence are both going to the inauguration,
Don’t forget that his connection to DC and to the in’s and out’s of politics is why Donald Trump chose Pence for his VP
Everyone successful in big business and politics is practical. Mike Pence is still a young man and I’d guess he still has political ambitions. I would imagine POTUS understands that.
If he thinks he has a snowball’s chance in hell of being POTUS, that could only occur if he won the GOP nomination (you never know since we cannot predict accurately the make-up of the GOP in two years which is when pols with Presidential ambitions begin to test the waters) and if he could beat the Dem nominee (extraordinarily unlikely but then we don’t know if the Dems will implode either, do we?)
More than likely, he’ll find himself running for Indiana Gov again when it’s available or serving as a cabinet member for a GOP President, but it election laws aren’t changed there will never be another GOP President.
Here’s an article on that snake Pence. He is trying to say Trump pressured him with the mob on the 6th. Really? All we wanted was achance to let certain states look at their electors again. Lying again, Mr. Pence. He got Flynn in trouble also.
https://americanmind.org/memo/setting-the-record-straight-on-the-potus-ask/
Those reading CTH for any significant length of time know this well. It is the ONLY place you will learn this.
The antidote, while painful, is self-evident – work to seat 61 Democrat Senators.
I will never vote for Democrat or RINO again. I will write in my husband. The vote is void anyway! We will never fix by fraud elections. We are fighting a Mafia.
They are not restrained by the constitution
Funny this is, I cancelled my voter registration. I will not hold my nose and vote Republican any longer. In 2022 Corrupt Senator John Thune will run and get the nomination for our Senate seat. He already has about $16M saved up and the state party will toe the line. In his last election run in 2016, he spend $7M and his Democrat “opponent” spent $70K. Spend a couple of hours on http://www.opensecrets.org and you will want to be vomit.
When the GOP runs a candidate worth supporting, I will consider registering to vote again.
Bonus, I won’t be annoyed by getting called for jury duty.
PS. My wife also cancelled her registration.
Lastly, a Super PAC run by a McConnell crony raised over $400 Million during the last 2 years. Trump has opened my eyes to the joke that the GOP is!
Elections don’t matter, they are theater. The Party chooses.
Primaries don’t matter either. The Party chooses who will win the Primary too.
I really can’t stand that a-hole Thune. He one of the worst.
Nikki Haley 2024 is Mitch McConnell’s Agenda – NO, not by the hair on his chinny chin chin!!!
He has no chin.
You can say that again. Mitch is hardly the picture of a masculine male.
Nikki Haley will not pass South Carolina primary, unless Clyburn is involved
What do you mean? Clyburn controls Dems, not GOP in SC.
Could be the senator from Kentucky now realizes that there is no gaining back those republicans who have left the party. I also wonder what type a hit the rnc took with requests for donation returns. He might hate Trump but he hates us more!
Now I need to shower after reading the slimy exploits of this man.
I’ll never forget the look on Mitch’s face when he walked out on stage at PDJTs rally in Kentucky. Disgust was written on his face and in his body language, all while the crowd was cheering for him. He was so uncomfortable and left fast. I remember saying to my brother, OMG look at that. He hates us.
I remember that. He mumbled something disingenuous about “judges”, and scurried off.
He doesn’t strike me as a man who is comfortable speaking to large crowds. He’s used to droning on and on in the well of the Senate, with people who never listen to one another as others speak anyway.
He could care less about his own party. The Great Reset is here. The Rep party, and hence the GOPe, will no longer be needed. He will retire to Beijing with his CCP wife and a hero’s reward.
one good thing about this crap, it creates candidates. like those 5 women in the house we will be watching with glee. the primaries will be a hoot.
Tell me Mitch: Who keeps banging drums in front of your house every night?
It’s gonna be us soon enough.
You won’t be allowed.
You mean the primaries cast mostly on Dominion machines running Smartmatic software?
Those primaries?
As one of the “Mob” droopy Mitch insulted today, and hearing how he betrayed every American who voted for Donald Trump, I am beyond disgusted.
If he thinks Little Nikki is going to get an ounce of support from me and my house, he is more demented than the upcoming usurper in chief.
Seriously, I think his sour mood is DUE to the paltry responses to the RNC and Haley pleas for support.
Every day, morning and night, my landline rings and RNC with a 202 area code shows on the screen. I never answer. I wrote a text back to Nikki Haley’s text telling them I “un-registered as a member of the GOP” and that I wished for them to not contact me again, and I received a “you have been removed from our list” response. The Gop got an email from me but it evidently hasn’t caught up to their “outreach” calls.
I know they aren’t getting money. I think they are getting a lot of angry responses and the pols on the Hill are inundated with nasty calls.
I think that’s responsible for McConnell’s vitriol.
I don’t think Mitch realized we were on to the. Hence, now we hear how we were tricked into believing there was voter fraud in the election.
McConnell has essentially said “Catch me if you can”.
He dispenses power at the expense of the People, while personally profiting handsomely.
He knows he is a crook, but he doesn’t care, because there is no downside to his perfidy.
This is a really sick system of criminality. He sells out America while “little people” are imprisoned for an ounce of weed. Not defending weed, but do see who the large criminals are: Senators and Congress critters.
They act with impunity because they have used their position to insulate themselves from responsibility.
It is so Machiavellian of them to do this. So evil. Pimps, every one of them. Dirty to the core.
I also blame everyone who put them there and kept on re electing them. Evil prospers .
Machiavelli was a saint compared to the GOPe, and actually advocated for exactly the opposite of what they are doing. And at the risk of hijacking your post, allow me to briefly explicate on old “Saint Nich”, who is actually one of my favorite historical figures, and who I think is profoundly misunderstood.
Machiavelli was a Florentine patriot, who wrote everything from a perspective of wanting the best for his beloved city-state republic, and even dreamt of a unified republic of Italy. He gets a bad wrap for supposedly advocating a political world view of brutality and amorality, when in fact the only thing brutal was his honesty about how the world really works. His candor — which was shocking for its early 16th century time and still manages to sting even the dullest of modern sensibilities — was a philosophical reaction against the waning chivalric worldview of the age, which in his opinion was responsible for the endemic political disarray plaguing all of Italy in his day.
In his reactionary boldness, he gets accused of saying “the ends justify the means”, which he never actually said. All the English translations that have that phrase in chapter XVIIII of The Prince are old and inaccurate, a mistake no scholarly modern translation makes. What he actually said was
In other words, rule justly to the extent that circumstances permit, and always be willing to engage in what would otherwise be considered injustice, in a targeted and strategic manner, as circumstances require. That’s just the cold reality of how the world of political power works. And never for the sake of tyranny, but always for maintaining the prince’s state. For sobering expansion of this idea, read about the “Sons of Flavius Brutus” in chapter 3 of the Discourses. The analogies to the Trump administration are profound, and exactly opposite of what McConnell and the GOPe are doing, who engage in wanton lawlessness for their own gain.
Machiavelli was a stone cold straight shooter, and in my opinion we desperately need people on our side right now with his type of patriotism in all its historical accuracy, not the “Machiavellian” caricature popularized by the left.
Hopefully the military arrests them once Biden is inaugurated under EO13848
Well out of a population of 330 millions, i suppose someone might try to arrest him (them)
I am as angry as everyone else. I have always despised McConnell, however I think everybody switching to independent right now is the wrong move.
Let’s swing for the fences, let’s bombard the senate with phone calls demanding McConnell step down, let’s go for his scalp. Look at what Wyoming is doing to Cheney, look at the numbers of representatives that turned on her. Call your senators, let your voice be heard. They are cowards when TSHTF. Call the RNC, raise hell. Kentucky treepers look to Wyoming follow their lead, fight back.
We may not win, but if we don’t try we surely won’t.
Swing for the fences by voting Republican? You jest! When the shtf? It HAS.
You can switch and still bombard the Senate with calls. I have.
“MITCH” McConnell has ALWAYS been “problematic” IMO …
Having spent a considerable time “in the arena”, I have some experience in what I’m saying. You can always tell by the eyes … look at his face, his eyes. He — McConnell lies all the time.
Q.E.D.
Yes, SATANIC Mitch !
Doc are out.
I wanted Kentucky to either primary McTurtle out or vote for the Dim and get him out. Lots of folks said NO…must hold the Senate. I countered it was worth the risk to get rid of him. Suspect the machines would have gotten him in anyway. He’s bought and paid for his golden ticket. Heck he’s one of the engineers on the Corruption Coach.
Is there any way to recall this POS within Kentucky? If so do it people.
What we have learned in the last 4 years just breaks me. America, this beautiful nation, is completely compromised at levels I couldn’t believe.
Just think, these old codgers live 24/7 to screw and control us. Why do people way past retirement age and with enough money to buy all the Polident they want, hang around ?
Their over inflated egos won’t let them in addition to not being able to live without the money and power. They are psychopaths. There’s no doubt about that. I also think jealousy played a large part in their hatred towards President Trump. He did what they couldn’t. Look at Romney and McCain. Their egos couldn’t handle it. And the chants of We Love You was really the last straw that sent the swamp into overdrive.
I have wondered the same thing myself.
Just saw on Gateway Pundit,
Tucker Carlson: Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the leader of Republicans in the Senate, has sent word over the White House – If you pardon Julian Assange we are much more likely to convict you in an impeachment trial.
All the more reason to pardon Julian. They will likely convict him anyway like its a Soviet show trial.
Anyone know what one has to do with the other?
And doesn’t the Senate Trial (Unconstitutional in the first place), have to relate to the actual Impeachment Charge from the House of Horrors?
So in other words they will convict even though the Impeachment has zero to do with Assange – can you say blackmail?
I think President Trump should pardon Assange as well. But, even if he does Assange will always live the rest of his life looking over his shoulder because of his role in Wikileaks.
I think the conviction of Donald Trump in the Senate is a done deal. The Establishment GOP have their marching orders from COC and their big corporate donors. This is why Mitch McConnell is now coming out so strong against President Trump. He hinted around for a few days last week to test the winds as to how his response to the impeachment would go over. All 50 Democrats are a “Yes”. So, that means 17 GOP have to also be “Yes”. Straight away I can think of yes votes coming from – Romney, Murkowski, Sasse, Collins (though she has been quiet), McConnell, Thune, Toomey, Burr, and Blunt. There will be another 8 “surprises” to add to the mix.
I’m sure Portman from Ohio wants to, but he is up in 2022.
First off, if tucker put it out, take it with a planet of salt.
Second off, that makes zero sense. What guarantee would they give Trump for him to not pull the trigger? Why would PDJT feel inclined to trust them? Give me a break.
Not a shot at you. I’m just saying this is absurd and makes zero sense.
Face it. Trump has been trusting the untrustworthy since the moment he took office.
So true! President Trump cut his own throat and his cabinet/advisors held the knife for him starting with Pence and Barr!
Poor Julian Assange. Why? Just like Flynn. Unrelenting hatred. President Trump should have sent the message back with an undelivered message.
YOU CANNOT IMPEACH TRUMP IF HE ISNT THE PRESIDENT ANYMORE
Cocaine Mitch’s threat is EMPTY AND MEANINGLESS
Turley On ‘The No-Show’ Option: Trump Could Sit Out The Senate Trial And Still Prevail
It is unclear, for example, if Chief Justice John Roberts would be called upon to preside. After all, the Constitution stipulates that when “the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside” — but the president will be Biden, not Trump.
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/turley-no-show-option-trump-could-sit-out-senate-trial-and-still-prevail
I wonder if McConnell traded President Trump and the Senate for Nikki Haley later…
If there has been one silver lining from today, it’s that the few morons who has been defending Mcconnell has realized that they have been fooled. The second he threatened to convict if Trump pardoned Assanage was the tipping point on even saying he needs to be gone.
The tipping point with McConnell was when he destroyed Matt Bevin for running against Cocaine Mitch in a primary.
Not one red cent to any of them. They can finance their own campaigns. They certainly have the wherewithal.
McConnell’s right– since the “mob” was Antifa false-flags staged by Pelosi, they probably were triggered by the President’s speech.

Trump is discussing with his associates the start of a new political party: The Patriot Party
https://thepalmierireport.com/patriot-party-president-trump-has-talked-to-associates-about-starting-new-party/
perot got 20 %, even after he quit. trump will wipe these c suckers out.
And don’t forget Teddy Roosevelt. And Abraham Lincoln.
except for the cheating. From top to the poll workers none have any fear of consequences.
Patriots would have to sweep state and local offices to clear everyone out. Or some examples made of justice done to get those cheaters to back off.
If he doesn’t have the stones to face down Pompeo and McConnell and pardon Assange, I’ll not be interested in his new party.
I am really surprised that a gown man would say something so childless.
Yes, and after Trump folded in the end, I won’t be interested in helping Trump profit off this national disaster when he tries to set-up his TV station and social media network, which will get “Parlered” eventually. Nobody fears Trump, so the attacks on Trump will only intensify once Biden is inaugurated.
It is time to a start Brandon Straka type Campaign to “Walk Away From The GOP”
How about “Run [as fast as you can] Away From The GOP” ?
Sundance, wouldn’t it be to our benefit if your essay saw the light of day on tv, reaching millions?
Could you sit down with someone who’d read it or explain the dynamics to his audience? Would that be something you’d welcome?
If your answer is “no” then would it be beneficial for every single one of the senators to receive this from thousands of Treepers?
Thoughts?
What happens if McConnell doesn’t finish his term?
He’s nearly 80 and he’s already had a triple heart bypass.
his family will inherit millions …….from china.
I was thinking more along the lines of the Senate majority/minority dynamic.
i know. i just had those thoughts in my head.
I would think that the money from China would end with his passing.
His family would no longer be of any value to the CCP.
i was thinking of the money from china he already has.
China could claw it back…that would be interesting.
“Two wings of the same vulture.”
Sir, you nailed it.
Perfect metaphor.
Or two heads of the same snake.
I don’t know what to say about the corruption. If I express my ego feelings, they would be angry, pissed, sad, that these corrupt people destroyed our American System.
If I indulge in those ego feelings, I know I’ll be cut off from the Grace of God flowing into me and out from me to everybody. Reminds me of Jesus as people were spitting on him, beating up, and killing him and he was not angry, but said, “FATHER, forgive them they know not what they do” , and placing HIS Spirit into the Hands of God.
seems i remember Jesus taking out the money changer tables. i know what you mean though. vengeance is the Lords.
How incredibly sad it is when one reads your headline and instinctively knows the content of the post.
And, in reading the post, one’s instincts are confirmed.
Haley best watch her six. Pompeo wasn’t first at West Point for nuthin’, ya know.
Having been in the military seems to have lost a lot of its luster, so I don’t know that “I went to West Point” would be that much of a plus.
Sounds a bit too ‘virtue signalling’ to me. I’d go with the America Party.
I want a name that makes other parties seem anti-American by name alone.
That isn’t a bad name, but I would make it more formal. Maybe something along the lines of the Constitutional Party or the Conservative Party. I read that there was at one point the American Conservative party that was disbanded about 10 years ago. There is currently the Conservative Party in New York (a local party), but almost always lists the Republican candidates as its candidates.
I’m in New York and I just switched from Republican to Independent.
My son, who is registered as a Conservative, asked me why I didn’t switch to the Conservative party.
I told him exactly what you said about the Conservative party simply endorsing the GOP candidate and listing them on their ticket.
I just switched to Independent as well. I had been a member of the Republican Party for 26 years.
The Republican party needs to die. I would like to personally thank Mitch for all his help.
Is Nikki Haley tone deaf enough to really think she could be elected president?
She’d be fine with playing her role as needed. Win or lose, she’ll follow her script.
The Traitor is telegraphing that he is going to maneuver to impeach Trump, legal or not. He may also be telegraphing that he knows about a false flag about to happen and he is getting on the right side of the press of that now, while the getting is good. I’m wondering if we are closer to President Harris than we believed…
Tucker on McConnell:
I am through with the Republican Party. It is all a Uni-Party anyway. In fact, It is really a Communist Party. Our votes do not count …..machine votes do. Why go through the charade?
My guess if somehow Trump does come back, he may as well comeback his own Party. There is no equal Justice in this Country and it is run by crooked, corrupt criminals……Congress, Senate, Supreme Court and now the Presidency……none of them do the will of the people.
I got this idea from another Treeper: At noon tomorrow going to change my party affiliation from “R” to “I.”
In KY we have to mail it in, but it will give me great personal satisfaction to know that the handwritten “I” will be placed at the exact time of the Fraudnauguration.
P.S. Embarrassed to admit I live in KY, though here in the Western part of the state Bejing Mitch (as I now call him) is pretty much despised.
Nah. Wait until President Trump starts his new party and we’ll all move over in droves. That’s when it will have the most impact.
A crashing Republican party might have an influence on the success of a new party, n’est-ce pas?
I mailed my de-registration today — after 50 years a Republican. Now is the time to do it! For me, it is a personal statement of my own conscience: I cannot stay in this party that has so betrayed President Trump and us, the American people,. Every institution of government has failed us. We voted in the millions and that little group in Washington D.C. decided that they would substitute their own choice for President. I don’t care what the grand strategy might be in the future; I am done with them now. The way the party system works, a third party will not work here. We have to make the Republican Party collapse and then start a new party; No way to add in a third party.
I am in Princeton West Ky since 1990.
Ready to leave.
I’ve always been curious why Mitch gets reelected in Ky. Can you shed some light?
I think its called Dominion
And the President and all of us asking you to vote for him.
Combination of Pork and fraud. Also a boat load of Sheep.
Interesting article in a left wing rag, can’t recall which (sorry).
It lists some of the very same anomolies we use, to advance that Joe stole the election, to say MITCH stole the election.
Polls in Kentucky had him at low approval, in the 30’s iirc, and said an electronic voting system ESE, I think it is, was used.
I have no doubt the Uniparty arranges for weak Dem challengers for top Reps, and vicey versy for top Dems, weak Rep challengers.
After all, if its Dems vs Reps (rather than Uniparty) and Dems have had Dominion for many years, how are Republicans, especially high ranking ones like Mitch, staying in office?
I also do not think Dems were the only one to have contractor access to the FBI Contractor access to the NSA database.
All RNC controlled.
And Cornyn too.
He rules the repub party with an iron fist and they listen to what he says. I have talked to a lot of very mature people (70s and 80s) and they swear he does everything just for them. He has them fooled. jmo
I changed my party affiliation this afternoon after, Mitch made his little spectacle in the Senate, and after President Trumps Farewell. I decided to leave with VSGDJT. My vote goes with Trump. Welcome Home to Florida, Mr President.
that’s beautiful SouthernGraceNoMore
Someone here said you need to change to unaffiliated, as the I for Independent Party is an actual party of which Bernie is a part of again.
At least double check.
Depend on the State. In Az., the form has check box for Republican, check box for Democrat, check box for “Unaffiliated with ANY Party” or check box for “Other”, and a line.
Be advised, was Republican for 45 years, I checked “Other” and wrote in “America First Party”.
My new voter registration card arrived, still shows me as “Republican”.
Still too pissed to call them, yet.
Oh, my!
“Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!”
My wife and I already changed our affiliation. There is only one man in Washington, DC I blame for the next four years of Biden/Harris: BILL BARR! Period.
Barr really failed when it came to doing his duty. He could have prevented this long ago. He owns the blood that will flow.
Glad to hear there are others who can’t stand McConnell in Kentucky. 10 years ago, our anti-illegal immigration group (albeit, a small group) was throw out of his Corporate Plaza office in Lexington. I never forgave or forgot him for that incident.
Don’t have to mail it in. I did mine on line on the 7th of jan. Easy. Will go back to Repub if necessary for primaries. I did mine at the local court court clerk’s office.
I agree – what McConnell and other RINOs did was UNFORGIVABLE. As it stands, the Republican party is finished.
they Whigged out
This is why I quit saying the pledge of allegiance. No justice no peace.
Do we now take a knee?
Watch the Left howl at that.
also through with the Republican Party – we will not see any “censure” by the party – the RNC – crickets from Ronna Romney McDaniel – totally useless
The daily depression during the eight Obama years will seem mild compared to what comes next.
One can either not pay attention to politics and just focus on personal sanity and family security or fight on.
At this point the maga movement just has massive numbers but no political channel or consensus plan. Even the larger alternative communication channels are censored, monitored, targeted. And individuals are being harassed and intimidated in every sphere of life.
And you can be sure anything Trump tries to do politically or via media will be attacked by the hounds of hell unleashed by the emboldened swamp.
The last two weeks may be a preview of how they are able to constrain his voice, message and actions. And imagine what it will be like as a private citizen.
The swamp was exposed all right and their true nature revealed. But in all candor I can’t see how Trump can fight any better out of office with no power than he did till now. And who else will rise to leadership and gain the same loyalty?
Sorry, I didn’t mean to flag you. It seems if I just look at that little flag it light up. I have yet to get comfortable moving down the comments without somehow constantly flagging comments, all without my intent.
I have flagged people by accident more than once.
Glad to hear I’m not the only one with this issue. I somehow flagged you as I was giving you a thumbs up. ?
I’m with you on that. I have a touch screen and unfortunately appear to be flagging all sorts of Treepers. Sorry about that.
Maybe it’s the touch screen then.
Its going to be worst than obams times. At that time we didn’t know what a great president could do for us and do for the country. Now we know. We had such a great four years . It passed so fast!. I still cant believe that they stole the presidency and we couldn’t do anything. As of tomorrow I will be in automatic pilot again politically, as I was during the obama times. Dormant till the maga party is born.
I remember the euphoria I felt after the 2016 election, it was like walking on air after the long depressing Obama years. I was so elated that we all could say “Merry Christmas” again without restraint. To me it seemed like everyone was just happier. We need to keep those memories going forward.
I might go back to my old life, just living life and getting bits and pieces from my husband who would have the stomach to tell me news of how bad it is.
I don’t think I could take a daily depresser.
Until I hear some news of how to organize or mobilize.
