After almost two solid years of manipulated “national media polls” being exposed as  constructed tools by political entities to create a media narrative, you would think the MSM would be embarrassed to continue selling/broadcasting these constructs.
Alas, the MSM simply continue selling national polling nonsense repackaged yet carrying the same ideological intent.  The new wrapper is Trump’s favorable/unfavorable rating.
Oh well.

That said, perhaps a recent California Poll (non media) conducted by the Hoover Institution and Stanford University will provide a little more context to understand how fraudulent the national media polls are.
Emphasizing, these are poll results exclusive to California. 1,700 Californians polled:

The Senate confirmation hearing for Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary nominee, Tom Price, is today beginning at 10:00am.   The repeal and replacement of ObamaCare is a top tier initiative for incoming President Donald Trump.
President Trump has nominated Representative Tom Price to lead HHS in part due to his overwhelming knowledge of the Obamacare construct, and his specific plans to replace it with patient-centered insurance reform legislation.
As the only legacy legislative accomplishment of President Obama, Senate Democrats have vowed to fight against the Price nomination in a political proxy war to defend Obama’s  legacy.  Live Stream Link – and embed below

Anyone who believes Democrats own exclusive opposition to Donald Trump are completely ignoring the deliberate construct of the 2015/2016 republican primary.  There are just as many -if not more- natural enemies within the Republican apparatus as there are within the Democrat group.  “America-First” is antithetical to the UniParty.
Again, prior to Donald Trump there was one party in Washington DC, “The UniParty”.  President Donald Trump represented a second party, an independent approach toward legislative and economic priority.  He was not a third choice, he was the second option.

Within the ‘right-side’ of the UniParty you have Republicans.  Within the republican party there are two groups; both intentionally established to present the fallacy of false choice.
“Small government CONservatives”, just like their “big government” GOPe colleagues, begin remarkable advocacy for the consolidation of self-serving power when they are threatened by sunlight.  It is critical for the U.S. electorate to understand this dynamic.
Whenever CTH reveals this political construct, we come under fire from the hidden elements within the UniParty; most generally from the crony-constitutionalist group represented by the advocacy of old talk-radio yellers. (more…)

Political counter culture icon Andrew Breitbart mastered the use of a simple term:

“SO”?

Whenever challenged about the downside of his approach – AB had an inherent knack for removing toxic attacks by owning ‘the downside’, yet never accepting the framing.  Then he’d artfully expose the framing’s banality through simple counter questions, ‘truisms’.
Rabid leftists would never quite know how to respond to the linguistic judo and consistently over react in behavior and declaration.  This exposed their ideological moonbattery.  Sometimes he’d even join them in leading a chant framed to display the inevitable conclusion of their current protest:

What do we want?… Free Stuff…. When do we want it?…. NOW.

It was intensely funny to watch in action.

.
Presidential Trump’s approach today is magnitudes beyond winning; he’s consistently channeling an almost identical approach.  Example: “Well, someone’s doing the raping Don”, in response to Don Lemon’s challenges about Trump’s campaign announcement and border wall proposal.
Additionally, Trump is creating a new dimension in political counter culture that baits opponents into diminishing themselves – and they fall for it each and every time.  Exponentially stunning.  Gobsmackingly so.

Well, at least the DoD won’t have the issue of paying for Manning’s gender reassignment surgery any longer.  Additionally, the Intel Community writ large gets a big poke in the eye from the Obama administration that has used them as political tools to poke the White House enemies in the eye…  Oh, and presumably pretzel Democrats will like WikiLeaks again…. until next week, or something.

[…] Manning copied hundreds of thousands of military incident logs from the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, which, among other things, exposed abuses of detainees by Iraqi military officers working with American forces and showed that civilian deaths in the Iraq war were likely much higher than official estimates.

The files Manning copied also included about 250,000 diplomatic cables from American embassies around the world showing sensitive deals and conversations, dossiers detailing intelligence assessments of Guantánamo detainees held without trial, and a video of an American helicopter attack in Baghdad in two Reuters journalists were killed, among others.

Run silent, Run deep…

…until you reach a point where periscope depth is warranted as part of the plan.
Many people could naturally see an evolving ideological synergy between Donald Trump and Rand Paul back in 2015.   Despite some divergences on international approach, Paul and Trump have a very similar domestic  pragmatic Mercerism.  T-Rex sealed the deal.
Today Senator Rand Paul surfaces on CNN to discuss current political events as they unfold against the background of an incoming Trump administration.  Paul gives Wolf Blitzer a sad face.

British Prime Minister Theresa May is set to deliver a highly anticipated speech on the UK’s outlined plan to exit the European Union.  The speech is for diplomats at Lancaster House in London today at 11:30am local, 6:30am U.S. Eastern. – Live Stream Embed Below:
It’s been six months of no action since the Brexit referendum vote to leave the EU.  Recent reports claim Brussels is likely to insist on freedom of movement for EU citizens in and out of the U.K. in return for full access to the EU single trade market.  This is a major test for the fortitude of May, who Brexit supporters feel must outline a hard exit with no middle-ground for free movement access.

Mason Weaver, a former Black Panther, takes issue with legendary civil rights activist Rep. John Lewis calling Trump an illegitimate president.  In an interview with Tucker Carlson on Fox News, Weaver skewers the hypocrisy of Lewis, and calls out Democrats as the party of the Klan.
Mr. Weaver has a dream, and it doesn’t look anything like the nightmare created by John Lewis and company.
