The Sunday Talk Shows are filled with various left-wing punditry using two media reports from the Washington Post and New York Times claiming anonymous, albeit transparently political, “intelligence officials” who state: the Russian government “hacked the U.S. election“.
First, the media’s choice of wording is critical within both reports.
It is impossible to “hack an election“.  What was hacked was the DNC email system, and John Podesta’s email.  WikiLeaks published the content of both “hacks”.
Additionally, WikiLeaks has denied the source of the information was a foreign government.
Both The Washington Post and New York Times, simultaneously, published articles on Friday claiming anonymous sources within the CIA (note: intensely political CIA Chief John Brennan in charge) point to the Russian government as the originators of the hacking.   However, both articles are written with very obtuse and non specific language intended to cover over the fact these reports are not actually stating the official intelligence community are making these specific claims.
All other media outlets subsequently take this illogically based presentation and spin their coverage whereby the “DNC hacked” becomes “the election hacked“.

During a CNN interview this morning CNN Director Sean Spicer pushed back against the ridiculously politicized claims that Russia hacked the RNC.  They didn’t.  Fake News:
However, Michael Smerconish was fully engaged in selling the MSM storyline.

President Obama Can See Russia From His House…

Someone, anyone, please tell me the best play for the Obama administration is not to trot out Clapper and Brennan to blame the Russians…. because the entrenched unwillingness to accept defeat is now getting way too funny.
The latest batch of moonbattery stems from the New York Times and Washington Post who are now quoting mysterious and secret sources, within the CIA, who claim the Russians were involved in the 2016 presidential election… or something:

[…]  It is the assessment of the intelligence community that Russia’s goal here was to favor one candidate over the other, to help Trump get elected,” the paper quoted a senior US official as saying. “That’s the consensus view.” (link)

It was already funny when candidate Hillary “pickles” Clinton was blaming a mysterious planetary conspiracy theory created by earth’s nationalist movement under the auspices of oppositional frog memes:

[…] The “vast right-wing conspiracy” went weirdly global today when Hillary Clinton delivered an actual presidential speech claiming she was being chased around by looming global forces of darkness, aligned in ideological intent to ensure her destruction (link)

But, it’s yet another level of absurdity entirely when the actual U.S. intelligence apparatus assigns the official position office of the president to the same global conspiracy.
These people don’t need to be refuted, they need to be laughed at.  Period.

Donald Trump came under fire for saying the Boeing Air-Force-One replacement program was ridiculously too costly at a $4 billion price tag:

Immediately the Trump opposition, which is essentially the entire MSM apparatus, went into apoplectic rage and attack mode because, according to them, there was no basis for the price assertion at $4 billion.
However, Pentagon contract documents obtained by The Daily Mail show Donald Trump was precisely correct, and all the moonbat antagonists were precisely wrong.

Retired Admiral James Stavridis talks to the media about the meeting with Donald Trump and the Trump transition team today in HQ.  The media frame this meeting as Stavridis floated as potential cabinet pick. WE DOUBT.

Stavridis was former head of NATO Allied Command during the most consequential NATO intervention in the Mid-East. The Obama/Clinton/Panetta NATO attack against Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.  It was Stavridis who coordinated the intervention on behalf of the U.S. State Department, CIA, White House and French leader Nicolas Sarzoky.
Hopefully, this meeting was simply to gain Stavridis perspective on the construct of the current NATO architecture.   Admiral Stavridis is an interventionist’s globalist.

We pause today to remember the 2,403 American heroes who selflessly gave their lives at Pearl Harbor 75 years ago, on a date that will forever live in infamy. We also honor the 1,178 Americans who were wounded, and the countless others who instinctively did their duty, rushing to their posts in the midst of the chaos.
Their shared sacrifice reminds us of the great costs paid by those who came before us to secure the liberties we enjoy, and inspires us to rise to meet the new challenges that stand before us today.

It’s not yet on the Trump Schedule, however additional people are reporting a likelihood of a return visit by President-elect Donald Trump to Louisiana.  
The last trip by Donald Trump and Mike Pence was during the severe flooding earlier in the year, where both candidates wanted to show their support for the community and relief efforts.   Hillary Clinton also promised to visit, but never did. 
There is an ongoing Senate race in Louisiana where the republican state treasurer John Kennedy is favored to win the election.  A visit by Donald Trump would surely boost their supporters.

BATON ROUGE – President-elect Donald Trump is expected in Baton Rouge Friday afternoon, multiple sources told WBRZ Tuesday.
Sources spoke on condition of anonymity as the event is still being planned.  Two sources with knowledge of a planned visit said staff were trying to find a venue.  Before the election, Trump’s schedule was regularly updated with seemingly spur-of-the-moment rallies that were heavily attended.  Events are known to attract thousands of people.

President Elect Donald Trump and his Secretary of Defense nominee, General James “Mad Dog” Mattis, are traveling together today to Fayetteville North Carolina for a Thank You Rally.

It is not coincidental that President Stompy Feet delivers a speech today in Tampa Florida declaring he is important too: (more…)

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…)

General James “Mad Dog” Mattis has been nominated by President-elect Donald Trump to be Secretary of Defense.  A video of General Mattis discussing his perspectives on a variety of issues is below.  Well worth watching:
