For more than a year we have been discussing the Trump ‘America-First’ economic platform.  Within the discussion you may remember the following:

[…]  In addition, an unquantifiable benefit comes from investment, where the smart money play -to get increased return on investment- becomes putting capital INTO the U.S. economy, instead of purchasing foreign stocks. (read more)

We would strongly urge people to grasp the fundamental outline of Trump’s economic path; because he continues specifically showing evidence of this fundamental economic paradigm shift:

Masa (SoftBank) of Japan has agreed to invest $50 billion in the U.S. toward businesses and 50,000 new jobs….

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 6, 2016

In addition to the announced investment from Masayoshi Son of Softbank, a very Trump-esque business leader within Japan, President-elect Donald Trump also made a specific point about Boeing and the contract they carry to build the next generation Airforce One fleet.

Most CTH followers are familiar with RSBN from their exceptional coverage of Trump rallies and events throughout the entire election.  Indeed, RSBN broke new ground in the way political rallies could be broadcast, live-streamed and followed by operating outside the traditional legacy media.  Without their diligent efforts we would have been forced to rely on broadcast network coverage of Trump speeches and events.
RSBN is announcing a new exciting endeavor to create a new media enterprise and they are currently finishing the construction of a new studio.  Here’s an update:

During a presented Don Lemon discussion panel Monday night, the severity of ridicule against Dr. Ben Carson was jaw-dropping and unprofessional in the extreme.
Removing all pretense of substantive discussion, Don Lemon, Marc Lamont Hill and Peter Beinart began openly mocking the nomination of Dr. Carson for Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
The scope and severity of the exhibited ridicule was so over the top, fellow CNN panelist Brian Stelter was both visibly trying to hide his glee and simultaneously uncomfortable joining in amid the laughter and mockery.
If this was any other media panel mocking and ridiculing a black nominee for an Obama administration the calls of racist outrage against the network would be overwhelming. However, as customary within their hypocrisy, the pontificating left-wing ideologues cannot even fathom anyone taking exception. Watch:

Forget President Obama breaking 40 years of U.S. diplomatic policy and engaging in direct talks with Iran…. forget that.
Forget President Obama breaking 50 years of U.S. diplomatic policy and engaging in direct political relationships with the communists in Cuba…. forget that too.
The Donald took a phone call from the President of Taiwan.

OMG Yikes, Stop The Presses !!

Quick, cue the Dobbs:

Repost – Donald Trump took a congratulatory phone call from the President of Taiwan, and now the Chinese will be apoplectic.

Oh, the winning… odd how it just seems to self-create now.
Recently reelected Democrat House Leader Nancy Pelosi (moonbat via San Francisco California) claims, in the face of another historic election loss, the Democrats don’t need a change in direction they just need a better vehicle to communicate their ideology.

Perfect!  Add in a few more of Hollywoods’ famous actor videos supporting Keith Ellison for DNC head, and we’ll have a self-perpetuating political Christmas Present:

Just a quick note to point out amid the insufferable MSM ‘splodey head chatter about Trump’s adult children participating in the transition team conversation.
Has anyone noted the media doesn’t project that same ridiculous narrative toward Karen Pence’s elegant and eloquent support?

Frankly, the entire banter about the families of the incoming administration participating in the transition is beyond silly, it’s laughable.   Obviously the challenges of structuring and running an executive administration require an all consuming 24/7/365 effort.
It’s not an issue for any administration, including Michelle and President Obama or Jill and VP Biden, to be involved and provide personal advice/counsel on any issue.  Period.
Exactly the opposite is true; we should all be thankful for the support network around of our nation’s executive leadership, and to see their family participating in that regard should be applauded.  There is every reason to see, sense and feel more confidence in this approach; not silly controversy.

President-elect Donald Trump met last week with former Vice President Dan Quayle, and no-one seemed to bat an eye.  President-Elect Donald Trump meets today with former Vice President Al Gore and everyone goes bananas.
Ask yourself, who is stating the reasoning was to discuss “climate change” – Trump or the MSM?
There is absolutely no indication the reason for either meeting was dissimilar in any way, and yet….  See, it’s called ‘projection’; that is the almost knee-jerk reaction created by decades of battered conservative syndrome.  I digress:

Most knew this was upcoming; today it is official…
(New York, NY) – President-elect Donald J. Trump today announced his intent to nominate Dr. Ben Carson to serve as Secretary of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

 
Dr. Carson is a distinguished national leader who overcame his troubled youth in the inner city of Detroit to become a renowned neurosurgeon who served as the director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Maryland.
“I am thrilled to nominate Dr. Ben Carson as our next Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development,” said President-elect Trump. “Ben Carson has a brilliant mind and is passionate about strengthening communities and families within those communities”.

Former CIA Director David Petraeus, a potential candidate for Secretary of State, was interviewed by George Stephanopoulos earlier today.
An interesting aspect – It appears Stephanopoulos, a severe Clinton loyalist, is attempting to head off the potential for Petraeus by undermining him during this broadcast.
This highlights an aspect we won’t see discussed on MSM. If you understand the Benghazi Brief, you can see how Petraeus might be a risk to Secretary Clinton if he were to become the Secretary of State.  However, Petraeus’s prior refusal to push-back against the Clinton/Panetta covert Egypt, Libya and Syria construct has been the source of my own angst toward Petraeus.
That said, does Petraeus hold a hidden, albeit substantive, chip on his shoulder?… hmmmm… that might be useful.  Odds are, no.  But you never know.

A person has to wonder just how frank the Trump/Petraeus questioning was? (more…)

President-elect Donald Trump reminds the world “America-First” is a policy, not a suggestion:

OMG, OMG,… O.M.G. he,… he,… well,… he used the Twitter.
