Challenge a liberal ideologue on the issues, any issues, and they have nothing to fall back upon except the charge of racism.  Everything is racism, that’s all they have.
In this interview Tucker Carlson challenges Jonathan Allen of Roll Call over Allen’s accusation that Senator Jeff Sessions is a racist:

Counter Point –> Now that Jeff Sessions is Donald Trump’s pick for attorney general, you’re going to hear a lot of people dig up old accusations that Sessions is a racist. In fact, CNN did so last night. However, between the nature of the accusations and Sessions’s actual record of desegregating schools and taking on the Klan in Alabama, it strains credulity to believe that he is a racist.  (read more)

Great interview in The Hollywood Reporter with Trump campaign CEO Steve Bannon.  Well worth the read. Excerpt:

(Via The Hollywood Reporter) […]  “The media bubble is the ultimate symbol of what’s wrong with this country,” he continues. “It’s just a circle of people talking to themselves who have no f—ing idea what’s going on. If The New York Times didn’t exist, CNN and MSNBC would be a test pattern. The Huffington Post and everything else is predicated on The New York Times. It’s a closed circle of information from which Hillary Clinton got all her information — and her confidence. That was our opening.”  (read more)

This is too funny.  There’s a media live-stream of the lobby in Trump Tower that has been ongoing for two days.  CSPAN Pool Feed HERE  and Fox News (Via Facebook) have a broadcast set-up using the stream and there are actually thousands of people just watching the elevator lobbies:

(New York, NY) – President-elect Donald J. Trump today announced that he intends to nominate U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions to serve as Attorney General and U.S. Rep. Mike Pompeo as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.  Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn has been selected to be the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs.

U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions has dedicated his life to public service. He has a distinguished legal career and has served as both the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Alabama and Alabama Attorney General prior to his service in the U.S. Senate. He has been one of President-elect Trump’s trusted advisors on the campaign and will now continue his service as our nation’s chief law enforcement officer. (more…)

Media are reporting that General Michael Flynn is being “offered” the position of National Security Adviser to President-Elect Donald Trump.   However, there should be some reasonable caution on this announcement:
Almost everyone who supports Donald Trump has also supported Michael Flynn.

HOWEVER, recently, unbeknownst –at least originally– to the to the Trump campaign, General Flynn accepted a lobbying role for the government of Turkey, specifically to advocate for Recep Erdogan and Turkish interests, and presumably never told the campaign.

Amid all of the pontification surrounding the Donald Trump transition timeline, here’s some comparative information:
(Via ABC)  Obama did not make his first Cabinet nomination — Tim Geithner for treasury secretary — until Nov. 24th.
In a press conference on Dec. 1, 2008, Obama revealed his next big batch of Cabinet positions, including Hillary Clinton as secretary of state and Eric Holder as attorney general.
Obama had three Cabinet nominees withdraw.
On Jan. 4, 2009, former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson withdrew his nomination for secretary of commerce, plagued by a federal pay-to-play investigation into whether a state agency contracted with a company belonging to a prominent Richardson donor. (more…)

Former presidential candidate Senator Ted Cruz appeared on Fox and Friends this morning to discuss his visit to Trump Tower and the transition team.

Most Americans cannot fathom how fundamentally earth-shattering the Donald Trump administrative architecture is to the professional political class.

“It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage than a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the old institution and merely lukewarm defenders in those who gain by the new ones”

~ Niccolò Machiavelli

Almost every American understands the existence of a corrupt DC UniPary apparatus because they feel the consequences daily.   However, most do not fully understand the cause of that corruption because it has become so deep-rooted and systemic.

There are multiple stories surfacing about the President-Elect Trump transition team rebuking donors and lobbyists from influence – HERE and HERE – but it cannot be overstated just how devastating this concept is to the thousands of professional political affiliates dependent on generational scheme and graft; including corporate media.
For decades the Wall Street legislative priorities have starved the middle class to the benefit of Corporate Wall Street’s own indulgence.  The reversal of this process is literally threatening their existence and removing trillions of dollars from their control.
