Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †
Candidate Donald Trump is holding a rally today in Manheim Pennsylvania at Sandy Nook Sports. The event is scheduled for Live Stream at 7:00pm EDT, however some pre-rally activity might start prior: Live Stream Link – Alternate Live Stream #1 – Alternate Live Stream #2
An intellectually honest person would have to admit the only reasonable conclusion drawn from the current FBI documentation, combined with the recently disclosed immunity agreements, is they had no intention of charging anyone involved with the Clinton email scandal and subsequent coverup – from the outset.
It you are one of the increasingly rare few who hold the opinion that FBI Director James Comey was attempting to find otherwise, I would strongly urge you to watch this video.
Pay specifically close attention to the segment where Representative Ratcliffe outlines the lies made by Platte River Network’s Paul Combetta and how those lies align with the immunity Combetta was given.
Combetta was given DOJ immunity in December 2015, he lied to the FBI in February of 2016 and yet Comey can’t reconcile why the immunity didn’t immediately dissolve. Just Watch:
The first step in tearing down a rigged system, is admitting the system is rigged. (more…)
During a Fox and Friends weekend morning segment the discussion centered around candidate Hillary Clinton’s remarks ridiculing, and essentially belittling, the supporters of Senator Bernie Sanders in the primary.
There are various comments/questions being raised about the current state of our national political condition, and the potential for failure toward the goal of MAGA in 2016.
To those voices specifically; to the members of the Rebel Alliance who hold trepidation about the possibility of losing; to people holding these concerns, I would like to take a moment and present an alternate perspective.
If you were to ask a general question about the beginning of the American Revolution to a thousand average educated Americans, the customary reference point would be the Boston Tea Party. Ask what was the issue and you’ll hear the phrase: “taxation without representation“. England, and specifically King George, being the essential tax benefactor.
Fair enough, albeit modestly simplistic. Using that historic reference framework, and attempting to carry a crude analogy forward, I would argue we’ve already well passed the dumping of the proverbial tea phase.
After the famous Boston Tea Party, the British Parliament responded in 1774 with the Coercive Acts, or Intolerable Acts, which, among other provisions, ended local self-government in Massachusetts and closed Boston’s commerce. This only increased the resolve of the Sons of Liberty. King George sent 4,000 British troops under the command of General Thomas Gage to occupy Boston. (more…)

It is always rather ironic how the mighty enlightened, limo-liberal, progressively-minded people can’t see the inevitable conclusions of their ideological and culturally Marxist arguments. If it didn’t effect all of us, it would be somewhat humorous to point their insufferable hypocrisies back at them. Oh well. At least in this story they were not baking a cake…. All Your Accommodations Are Belong To Us COTO DE CAZA, Calif. — A Southern California woman said she is the victim of discrimination, CBS Los Angeles reports.
Mary Campos said her pre-booked ticket was given away by United Airlines. The reason? She’s a woman, and two men didn’t want to sit next to a female.
A million-mile flier, Campos, a mom who lives in Coto de Caza, said she thought she’d seen it all – until a gate agent handed her a new boarding pass just before she got on a flight to Houston last Monday.
“He said, ‘This is your new seat,’” Campos said, “and I said, ‘Excuse me?’ And he said, ‘I don’t know how to tell you this.’”
She said she continued by saying, “Yes?” (more…)
