One of the lesser discussed WikiLeaks revelations was the leak outlining collusion between The Democrat National Committee and CBS News Political Polling.  The DNC requested and received control over the CBS published polling outcome.

We have previously outlined this activity as “agenda polling“; it has been discussed in great length.  The WikiLeaks release just provided more evidence.  Every single major media poll release is specifically constructed to deliver a directional narrative as outlined by the ideological message for the accompanying/distributing outlet.

Which brings us to today’s CNN narrative polling (full pdf below); where they state Trump has “surged” following the RNC convention in Cleveland.  Quite hypocritical of them actually, when you consider CNN claimed the entire convention was an abysmal failure.

This is an evolving story #BestSummerEver – Due to the revelations within the WikiLeaks DNC emails, Debbie Wasserman-Shultz has been barred from speaking at the Democrat Convention.

In an effort to diffuse the growing controversy, and trying to split the baby, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has just resigned her position as head of the DNC effective AFTER the Philadelphia convention…..  NOT GOOD ENOUGH says the majority of convention attendees so… stay tuned!    UPDATE:  Donna Brazille to fill in?

PHILADELPHIA – […] A Hillary Clinton source expects Wasserman Schultz to be gone by the end of the day, while another Democratic source said President Barack Obama or a proxy for him may need to get involved and call Wasserman Schultz because her posture is that she was appointed by the president.

Wasserman Schultz is holding on, believing “she can weather this,” a source told CNN
Short of her resigning, both critics and supporters within the DNC are demanding she issue a statement to deal with the many issues raised by the release of a trove of DNC emails by Wikileaks that appeared to show the party favoring Clinton over Bernie Sanders during the primary process. (more…)

WikiLeaks revealed clear evidence the Democrat National Committee was working earnestly to undermine Bernie Sanders and colluding with like-minded main stream media entities to eliminate the Sanders campaign.

The email leaks clearly show the DNC was working to support Hillary Clinton, and position Hillary Clinton favorably during the primary election.  Bernie Sanders supporters had been making this argument for months and being called conspiracy theorists by the media; the email release proves the supporters were right.

Bernie Sanders discusses the revelations and talks to NBC and ABC (two video interviews):

The professional party apparatus, ie. Team Clinton, just gave the Bernie supporters the biggest F.U. so far in Philadelphia.

After the DNC locked the doors so hundreds of Team Bernie supporters could not get in to attend the rules meeting, and after locking out media during the discussion, an effort to fully eliminate superdelegates in future elections failed.

A delegate for Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders offered an amendment to get rid of superdelegates (party insiders who can vote for the candidate of their choice at the convention).

Sanders supporters accurately identified it was superdelegates who gave Hillary Clinton too much of an advantage in their battle for the Democratic presidential nomination.

However, the party power structure will not allow such efforts.  The amendment was defeated by a rules committee vote of 108-58.  Although it earned enough support to force a floor vote at the convention should Team Bernie do so.

Following the vote, the media was allowed back in to witness, the Rules Committee subsequently voted down several other compromise amendments; including measures: to give superdelegates one-tenth of a vote each, ban lobbyists from being superdelegates, and bar superdelegates from voting on the convention’s first ballot.  They all failed.

Earlier today WikiLeaks released more documents showing how the Democrat National Committee (DNC) specifically worked to destroy the candidacy of Bernie Sanders in a united effort with the media to support Hillary Clinton.

The revelations within the release are quite astounding, and unfortunately confirm all the prior suspicions of the Bernie Sanders supporters about the democrat party apparatus working with the Clinton campaign to eliminate the threat posed by Senator Sanders.

There are multiple examples of specific activity where the DNC is colluding with the media to undermine Sanders.  A few examples are below, and we’ll dig in to some of those stories later.  However, within one part of the email release there’s another angle confirming something we have covered here exhaustively.

There is only one party in Washington DC, the UniParty.  The professional political class support themselves beyond all other ideological factors. These are modern realities.

President Obama is in a very tenuous position this week as a nation has been stunned by the targeting of police officers.  Indeed, there is a solid argument to be made that President Obama created the antagonism toward law enforcement with various speeches and cursory accusations of unequal treatment.
As a modern social justice president who embraces radical extremist groups like Black Lives Matter, and as an executive community activist who has used the cabinet offices of his administration to leverage social change, President Obama has embraced many divisive entities and expressed ideological alignment with their cause.
The gunman in Dallas who targeted white police officers, specifically because of the color of their skin, is just one visible consequence from a President who rails against a system of law and order.  Obama’s ideology is more comfortable amid the chaos.  (more…)

Listed below is a comparative graph, (from FEC records), showing the number of people on the campaign payrolls of: Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump over the past thirteen months:

Obviously there are a few interpretations possible for what this data signifies. However, two of the more obvious points would be: (more…)

Listed below is a comparative graph, (from FEC records), showing the number of people on the campaign payrolls of: Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump over the past thirteen months:

Obviously there are a few interpretations possible for what this data signifies.  However, two of the more obvious points would be:

• Two of the three candidates represented have never held executive management responsibility in the private sector where they needed to worry about labor efficiency.
• Two of the three candidates have never needed to make a payroll, or be personally accountable for the financial viability of their endeavors.  Their only budget familiarity is spending other peoples money.

It is not too challenging to identify which two candidates would be unfamiliar with labor costs, budgeting and efficiency.  In addition which candidate do you think would be more apt to focus on the elimination of bloated bureaucratic government, and waste?

After a one hour meeting with Bernie Sanders today, President Obama officially endorsed Hillary Clinton via the release of a well produced video.
However, White House spokesman Josh Earnest accidentally let it slip the video was recorded last Tuesday – BEFORE California, New Jersey, Montana, New Mexico and South Dakota even held their primary elections.
The “D’oh” moment is at the end of this video clip:

Yes, it appears the scripted Associated Press release on Monday and the White House recording on Tuesday is the final evidence Bernie was never going to be allowed.  Earnest admitting the endorsement video was recorded before the votes being counted on Tuesday is just salt in an open wound.
The reality of a rehearsed, produced, and heavily scripted roll out of Hillary Clinton as the presumptive nominee is yet another example of how Senator Bernie Sanders never stood a chance.  The professional DNC machine was always going to anoint Hillary Clinton.

Last week we shared a Georgia poll release from PPP and provided the following prediction:

The DNC will be expending considerable defensive resources in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin already because Trump is polling very strong in those previously uncontested blue states.  Look for PPP to focus attention toward FL and OH/PA next. –link–

As we predicted, yesterday PPP released a poll of Florida voters, and now today the latest PPP Poll (full pdf below) shifts to Pennsylvania.  In the Keystone state Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are currently tied according to this release.

Public Policy Polling surveyed 1,106 registered voters from June 3rd to 5th. The margin of error is +/3.0%. 80% of participants, selected through a list based sample, responded via the phone, while 20% of respondents who did not have landlines conducted the survey over the internet through an opt-in internet panel. Unfortunately the poll under samples independent voters. [ Democrat 49%, Republican 40%, and Independent only 11% ]. And the source of the voter list is undisclosed.
With those methodology details provided, and given this release was conducted three days ago, yet timed to occur on the day after the primary voting, unfortunately this poll should most accurately be considered an  agenda poll intended to manipulate a political media narrative – provided for MSM use and public consumption.
Further evidence of the agenda polling can be noted in the data, as delivered, appears intended to undermine/underestimate Bernie Sanders support – and the published editorial focuses on the same aspect.  Hence, take with a grain of salt.
