Amid increasing threats from foreign and domestic terror entities (ISIS, Mexican Drug Cartels and BLM, etc.) NewsMax is reporting presidential candidates Donald Trump and Dr. Ben Carson will begin receiving Secret Service protection.

The Secret Service will give agent protection to Ben Carson and Donald Trump while heavily upgrading Hillary Clinton’s existing detail, a Washington source close to the agency’s plans confirmed to Newsmax.

The deployment of agents around Republican candidates Trump and Carson is set to begin as early as next week. Approximately two dozen agents will be assigned to each candidate.

[…] The agency’s decision was primarily triggered by a significant number of threats to Carson, including death threats and terrorist chatter, the source said. (read more)

The news is particularly beneficial to Donald Trump’s campaign because he has been the visible target from domestic terrorism entities who hide under the auspices of social justice networks like La Raza and Black Lives Matter and spring upon the campaign crowd with various intents.

While discussion and/or presentation of violent leftist activity has been avoided by the Trump campaign, the concern has been clearly evidenced ‘between-the-lines’. (more…)

…. at least he is a real bona fide candidate.  Regardless of how fraught with inherent deception Jeb Bush’s intent and purposes for seeking the GOP nomination, he is in fact a real candidate; with, factual action taking place on the ground to support his efforts.

Like Donald Trump, Jeb Bush is structurally in the race -with infrastructure- trying to win it. The other multiple candidates, not so much; actually, not even close.

Spurred by our discovery of the internal Republican National Committee efforts to engage with State Republican party apparatus, vis-á-vis “ongoing rule changes“, numerous boots on the ground have begun reporting the absence of candidate activity amid various (Pre-March 16th) primary states.

Multiple calls to local and state Republican party leadership originally intended to find out when they were going to make decisions on proportional rules for delegate distribution, have accidentally identified another aspect  (it’s Déjà vu to the pre-primary spring ’14 all over again). (more…)

I’m re-posting a portion of an earlier article below because something is beginning that will have long-term consequences.  Always try to pay attention to the “bigger picture” as we travel amid the daily events.

Amid the ozone layer of political consequence the Billionaire class of Rupert Murdoch, George Soros, and yes Charles Koch operate on (and invest in) issues that pertain to their interests.  They may not carry the same beliefs on down-stream issues; but in their own financial neighborhoods they are globalists first and foremost.  This is why we identify them collectively as the Wall Street Class.

In the most direct and consequential sense, free flowing immigration, amnesty, and open borders play into their goals and objectives.  They are diametrically opposed to -and afraid of- nationalism.  The Koch Brothers are open-border advocates.

In many very deliberate ways the 2016 Presidential Election is morphing into a battle between the globalists (wall street etc., corporate media, democrats, Hillary Clinton and GOPe republicans Jeb Bush) and the nationalists represented by Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump and the largest section of the U.S. electorate.

TONIGHT: Charles Koch opens up in a rare public interview. Don’t miss it at 9p ET on #KellyFile!

This decision by Fox News (via Megyn Kelly) is part of the larger maneuver to advance Marco Rubio as the vulgarian alternative.  ie. Wall Street’s “fail safe”.

Multiple political stories breaking today (consider this an open discussion thread):

♦  Dr. Ben Carson is taking a 2 week break from campaigning to focus on his book tour –  […] According to ABC News, the next time Carson will publicly campaign will be Oct. 28, the day of the GOP debate, which will take place in Colorado. The last time Carson did a public campaign event was Oct. 2.

Carson will also catch up on fundraising events over the next two weeks. He has 20 events scheduled. In the third quarter of this year, Carson raised $20 million.

Politico is reporting that congressional leadership may not present the TPP deal for approval until after the 2016 election, during the lame duck session. Obviously this solidifies a particular reality all too common in Washington DC: If it is only politically safe to vote on the deal when no political election risk is evident, then you can be assured the deal is not in the best interest of the electorate.

Washington – Mike Sommers, chief of staff for Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), said at a Ripon Society meeting that Congress was unlikely to move on the massive trade package until a lame-duck session more than a year from now.

Hazen Marshall, policy director for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), who was also at the session, agreed that a TPP vote was more likely to happen in a lame-duck session, and added that the White House was trying to work with congressional leaders on timing. (more…)

Tom Donohue and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce were the primary group who negotiated the Trans-Pacific Trade Deal. Donohue also spent $20 million to bribe Mitch McConnell and senators in order to get fast-track legislation in place for passage.

Now the trade deal is finished labor unions want to see what’s in it. Donohue and the swarm of lawyers say not-so-fast there pal, we’ve got to scrub it down first. Using the same strategy as Obamacare, the CoC want the trade deal approved before the American people can see what’s in it.

WASHINGTON DC – One of the nation’s top labor leaders on Wednesday called on the Obama administration to immediately release the text of a far-reaching trade deal that spans the Pacific Rim to Latin America.

AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka wrote a letter to President Obama arguing that stakeholders, lawmakers and the American public need to see the final text of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) to start what is expected to be a long process of evaluating the deal brokered by the United States and 11 other nations.

House and Senate Democrats have made similar appeals since the pact was brokered a week ago during a final round of negotiations in Atlanta. (more…)

This analysis is the precursor to the second part of what was written here yesterday: the first part of the latest Fox News poll.

Within the prior analysis we shared:

“Don’t expect the remaining embargo data (most likely GOP polling data) to be favorable to Donald Trump.  Remember, there is a goal which never stops – THAT GOAL is the removal of Donald Trump at all costs.  Promoting Ben Carson and Marco Rubio (to a lesser extent Fiorina) remains the media strategy”. (link)

The goal behind that strategy is the nomination of Jeb Bush.

The second part of the poll is now released, and exactly as predicted it shows exactly what we said it would most likely contain.  However, in order to explain the content we first need to revisit the construct of why these events are surfacing with such intense predictability.

Simultaneously, it is also necessary to discuss and deconstruct another Fox Business report that John Kasich is being touted as a possible Vice-President pick by Donald Trump.  Both the Fox Poll agenda, and the Fox Business report agenda are tied to the same overarching goals.

Bear with me because, despite my earnest efforts, more than likely this analysis is necessarily going to go in the weeds, it’s unavoidable. (more…)

Fox News has released portions of an embargoed national poll (pdf below).  Within the poll the reality of Hillary Clinton’s lack of electability surfaces.

The important aspect is not the data itself, Hillary’s weakness is brutally obvious for anyone who has followed the maneuvering of the financial power brokers who control the funding of election outcomes, ie. Wall Street.  The important aspect is the media being willing to publicly show it – That’s the Tripwire!

TRUMP BEATS CLINTON

As said, it’s not the data per se’, you have to step back and think about the larger narrative as it has been continually presented by the media. (more…)

The discovery that an antagonistic female questioner, Ms. Lauren Batchelder, (during a “No Labels” event yesterday) is actually a campaign worker for Jeb Bush, has created a rather embarrassing political situation for candidate Bush.

In an effort to draw distance from the brutally obvious set-up, Governor Jeb Bush lead spokesman Tim Miller is now claiming Batchelder is not a campaign staffer:

The Washington Post reports another Bush campaign spokesperson is also seeking to distance the campaign from the profoundly odd, seemingly planted, remarks made during the event: (more…)
