Yesterday House Speaker Paul Ryan pushed through a Puerto Rico Rescue bill called PROMESA.  The details of the bill are fundamentally challenging to understand in scope, however, the key aspect to remember is the underlying benefactor(s) – Wall Street.
While Ryan is severely adverse to PROMESA being called a bailout, that’s exactly what it is – only worse.  The plan structurally changes the dynamics of how State debt is repaid, and the considerations for bondholders under the 5th amendment (seizure of private property w/out compensation); which will lead to a guaranteed bondholder bailout.
However, beyond the ‘bailout’ aspect there is a framework to override state legislative authority and use unelected “control board” appointed by congress to subvert citizen voices and make independent decisions.

As you read this press release from David Brat consider the how such legislative usurpation could possibly be considered “conservative“.

DAVID BRAT:  Yesterday members of Congress voted in favor of PROMESA, a bill that imposes a control board on Puerto Rico. I opposed this bill, and in an op-ed in the Washington Examiner, I explained why.

“The PROMESA Act creates an unelected, unaccountable ‘control board’ imposed by Congress to manage Puerto Rico’s spending and tax policies for at least five years. Control boards and five-year plans, channeling Stalin: what could go wrong?

Donald Trump delivered a speech today at the Faith and Freedom Conference in Washington, DC (JUNE 10th 2016):

Many have wondered if the local San Jose California community is really as violent as they have been portrayed.  The Mexican and Latino community in/around San Jose’ came together on June 3rd to beat, punch, kick and drag Trump rally attendees through the streets.  Is this really what San Jose is about?

Obviously the San Jose law enforcement community anticipated the violent activity because they scheduled undercover police officers to mingle with the mob.
Unfortunately, the undercover agents only documented the beatings and did nothing to stop them when they were happening. (more…)

Remember who:

• ….passed Trade Promotion Authority
• ….funded DAPA
• ….passed the Iran Deal.
• ….passed the Corker/Cardin amendment
• ….didn’t bother with a budget
• ….passed a $2+ trillion Omnibus spending package

Rat Fink Paul ‘Omnibus’ Ryan quickly scampers out of view after strategically timing the Puerto Rico Rescue bill to occur on a heavy news days containing White House endorsement and presidential election politics. (more…)

Justice Runs Amok 

As a follow-up to last night’s developments and the motion to dismiss, Judge Barry Williams admonished the Baltimore prosecutors office for another blatant Brady Violation yet allows the trial of officer Caesar Goodson to continue.
It is beyond ridiculous that over a year after prosecutors filed charges against the officers, and into the third trial of those six officers, the judge is telling the prosecution they have until Monday to ensure all of the evidence is finally disclosed to the defense.
Officer Caesar Goodson, 46, was the driver of the van used to transport Freddie Gray to Western District police headquarters.
The prosecution is claiming Goodson gave Freddie Gray a “rough ride”, meaning intentionally trying to harm Gray while he was in the transport van.   However, a second passenger in the van, Donta Allen, has previously disputed this accusation and stated the ride was “smooth” and uneventful.

(Via Baltimore Sun) […] Allen told police on April 12, the day of Gray’s arrest and seven days before he died, that Gray had been thrashing around and bashing his head into the partition that separates the van. Allen later publicly recanted, saying he only heard a faint tapping.

At the morning hearing prior to the trial, Williams determined that prosecutors had committed a violation by not disclosing a meeting they had with Allen in May 2015, in the presence of his attorney. The attorney disclosed the meeting to defense attorneys last week, who said it had been improperly withheld.

Understand the scope of this story and you understand the reason why the entirety of the progressive left has been harping on the Trump University story.  They are desperate to keep eyes and attention from the San Jose violence and the city officials who factually facilitated and organized it.  Of course the insufferable GOPe and ‘Conservative Punditry’ are stupid enough not to see that. 
Newly released arrest reports, from one of the only charges filed so far in the San Jose mob attacks against Donald Trump supporters, contain some harrowing accounts written by under cover police officers who witnessed the onslaught.

Below you will find an 8 page pdf of police statements outlining the violence they witnessed.  Example:

Under Cover San Jose Officer #1: […] Throughout the afternoon and evening I watched several individuals wearing “Trump” articles of clothing getting punched, kicked and pushed.
Under Cover #2: […] I was assigned to the Covert Response Unit and dressed in a plainclothes capacity. … As time came closer to 18:00 more protesters arrived; mostly younger males and females between the ages of 14 to 25.  … some began burning the United States flag in the middle of the street. It became inherently dangerous for anyone wearing a hat or T-Shirt in support of Trump.  I observed Trump supporters being spit on, objects being thrown at them, punched, kicked and even robbed of their personal belongings.  In these instances I observed victims running for their lives because protesters began adopting the mob mentality and attacking people.  I was unable to make contact with any of these victims due to my undercover capacity and fear for my own safety as well.

These are just two of many almost identical officer written reports found in the arrest records of individuals detained as an outcome of their violent behavior.

Baltimore Police Officer Cesar Goodson (left) is scheduled to begin his bench trial today, Thursday, in the third prosecution revolving around the Freddie Gray case. However, a stunning last minute motion to dismiss, based on a severe Brady violation from prosecutor Marilyn Mosby’s office, might just end the entire trial before it begins.
Those of you familiar with the political prosecution in the Zimmerman trial will remember the frequency of Brady Violations from Angela Corey.
Marilyn Mosby is worse.
Brady violations are when the State fails to turn over evidence that would support the defense. The “Brady Violation” in officer Goodson’s case stems from an interview with Donta Allen, the second passenger in the police transport van.
Many of you may remember that Donta Allen gave a statement to detectives where he told them he heard Freddie Gray banging his head and trying to intentionally injure himself.
However, what was unknown, until two days ago, was another interview with the prosecution in May 2015, where Donta gave prosecution investigators another statement during an interview. (more…)

Priceless.  The only problem for the New York Times is, Trump never said: “Man Up”.
A recent Times article, which was transparently structured to present candidate Trump with gender references, outlines Donald Trump’s opinion of the weak-kneed professional political class.  His position is essentially the same as Senator Jeff Sessions, get over it.

The media is so dishonest !

(Via New York Times) Donald J. Trump has some advice for panicked Republicans in Washington who are melting down over his most incendiary statements: Man up.

“Politicians are so politically correct anymore, they can’t breathe,”Mr. Trump said in an interview Tuesday afternoon as fellow Republicans forcefully protested his ethnically charged criticism of a federal judge overseeing a lawsuit against the defunct Trump University.

“The people are tired of this political correctness when things are said that are totally fine,” he said during an interlude in a day of exceptional stress in the Trump campaign. “It is out of control. It is gridlock with their mouths.” (more…)

Despite their earnest efforts the liberal media can’t “Stump the Trump“, and they also can’t “Barrage the Farage“…
