Seth Rich was a DNC staffer found shot to death in Washington DC on July 8th 2016.  The murder was widely reported as a robbery/homicide.  However, the killer(s) took nothing from the victim.

Rich’s watch, phone and wallet were all untouched.

The circumstances led many people to contemplate if Rich was “a source” connected to a larger story. This speculation only increased when WikiLeaks offered a $20,000 reward for any information on the murder.  WikiLeaks released emails from a DNC hack a little over two weeks ago.

Now this – via GatewayPundit.  WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange seems to strongly suggest Seth Rich was connected to the WikiLeaks DNC data leak, possibly the source, and murdered as a consequence:

Very, very disconcerting.

Candidate Donald Trump held a campaign rally in Wilmington North Carolina today at the University of North Carolina-Wilmington.  Approximately 10,000 showed up to cheer their candidate with many unable to get into the UNC Seahawks venue:

Keeping up with his ‘man of the people image‘ Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has purchased this third house, a $600,000 lakefront vacation chalet in Champlain Islands.

Part of the traditional campaign negotiations between various camps is the willingness of the endorsed candidate to absorb the campaign debt of the endorser.  The tighter the race, the more value is assigned to it.  Subsequently, it shouldn’t necessarily come as a surprise to see Sanders financially benefiting from his endorsement of Hillary Clinton.   How else does a Senator afford three homes on a congressional salary.

Let's not kid ourselves. We have today a campaign finance system that amounts to legalized bribery.

Quick, grab the syringe.

Holy cow, this is EPIC.  Lets see if the national media reports on this story.  The Florida DNC sent a rally invitation to the father of the Orlando Pulse Nightclub Terrorist, Omar Mateen.

You might remember all of those pictures of Seddique Mateen in Washington DC meeting with State Department officials and Democrat members of congress.

Well apparently Omar’s father, Seddique Mateen, a full-throated DNC supporter, accepted the invitation and was caught on camera sitting directly behind Hillary Clinton and cheering for her during the event in Kissimmee.

But wait, it gets even better.  Mr. Seddique Mateen gave a recorded interview to WPTV News.  The media who noticed his attendance, and obviously recognized the severity of this optically, was so gobsmacked,… well you just have to listen to them…. it’s hilarious. (more…)

Earlier today Governor Mike Pence gave a speech in Council Bluffs Iowa:

Since October 2012 we’ve noticed the reoccurring question of whether or not Secretary Hillary Clinton had a stroke. You might remember the evolving media reports at the end of October, beginning of November 2012.

First Secretary Clinton had a cold, that version later became a flu, that version later became a slip and fall, that version became a “concussion”, and that version finally evolved into “blood clots”, etc.

That series of medical conditions was followed by numerous reports a year later, during her book tour, that people were noting her difficulty with her eyesight, using her right arm, and seeming to tremble or be unstable when standing.

Many people wondered if the 2012 medical incident was actually “a stroke”.

The topic appeared and disappeared several times as specific incidents surfaced that seemed to indicate Hillary Clinton was struggling with some health issues.  The curiosity was fueled in 2015 by the Clinton campaign announcing they would not release Clinton’s medical records. (more…)

Because you’re worth it !

Yesterday the New York Times posted a story titled: “Researchers or Corporate Allies? Think Tanks Blur the Line”.

[…] Think tanks, which position themselves as “universities without students,” have power in government policy debates because they are seen as researchers independent of moneyed interests. But in the chase for funds, think tanks are pushing agendas important to corporate donors, at times blurring the line between researchers and lobbyists. And they are doing so while reaping the benefits of their tax-exempt status, sometimes without disclosing their connections to corporate interests.

Thousands of pages of internal memos and confidential correspondence between Brookings and other donors — like JPMorgan Chase, the nation’s largest bank; K.K.R., the global investment firm; Microsoft, the software giant; and Hitachi, the Japanese conglomerate — show that financial support often came with assurances from Brookings that it would provide “donation benefits,” including setting up events featuring corporate executives with government officials, according to documents obtained by The New York Times and the New England Center for Investigative Reporting.

As a person who has floated though the disconcerting world of Think Tank politics, the Times article was a worthy notation not only because of the substance within it, but also -and perhaps more aptly- because in the world of intellectual property amalgamation such a news article (research proposition) doesn’t just happen organically as a matter of happenstance.
